The Universe and the Star Domain are filled with countless floating objects formed from various debris.
However, at this moment, in the 03 Area of the Extraterritorial Battlefield, floating objects with a diameter of over a million kilometers have been cleared away, and hundreds of incredibly massive golden vines are rapidly contracting and shrinking.
After Ender collected all the spoils of war through the Cloud Vine, he saw Fortress and Lightning Flash flying towards him.
"Atlas," Fortress, who had flown over, greeted him, and then asked via Soul transmission, "How many Immortals from the Demon race faction did you kill?"
"Only two. Three Immortals self-detonated," Ender replied first, then asked, "How about your side?"
Fortress replied, "The Immortal of the Demon race royal clan, the Thousand-Legged Tick Centipede Clan, directly caused one Demon race Immortal to fall when he self-detonated by abandoning a part of his divine body. Another alien Immortal, however, survived, but has fallen into a deep sleep due to excessive loss of his divine body."
"Oh, deep sleep?" Ender was slightly surprised. "To be able to maintain a complete divine body and fall into a deep sleep under such immense power of a divine body's self-detonation, that alien Immortal must have some tricks."
"Haha, indeed." Lightning Flash's eyes lit up slightly upon hearing this. "A normal Immortal being able to survive a Pinnacle Military Lord's self-detonation without falling and maintaining a complete divine body is a good selling point."
"Hmm... you plan to sell that alien Immortal?" Ender was somewhat surprised. "Not enslave it yourselves?"
An Immortal in a deep sleep, due to excessive loss of its life imprint, has a very weak consciousness and will.
If Fortress and Lightning Flash were to enslave it, they would need a Secret Technique for Soul enslaved, but the requirements for consciousness and mastery of Secret Technique during enslavement would be very low, so even if they were Warriors, they could easily succeed in enslavement.
"Indeed, we don't plan to," Fortress replied. "We are both Warriors and don't have the Secret Technique to enslave an Immortal. If we wanted to enslave that alien Immortal, we would have to exchange for the Secret Technique."
"Don't worry, you'll also get a share of the Mixed-yuan Units obtained from selling this Immortal," Lightning Flash said somewhat excitedly. "As long as that alien Immortal is sold, I'll be one step closer to my dream of becoming a 'Local Tyrant'."
"Local Tyrant..." Hearing Lightning Flash's words, Ender smiled and mused, "An alien Immortal in a deep sleep, with the experience of withstanding a Pinnacle Military Lord-level Immortal's self-detonation, is very likely to fetch an auction price of around ten thousand Mixed-yuan Units."
"Ten thousand Mixed-yuan Units. Even if Lightning Flash only gets a portion of that, it would still be three to four thousand Mixed-yuan Units, which, combined with his previous savings, would be more than enough to buy a miniature Star Domain."
"However, miniature Star Domains are very rare; they are usually split from large or medium Star Domains, with the number of star systems within the Star Domain being less than a thousand, just like the Molten Rock Star Field."
Ender thought to himself, "It probably won't be long before Lightning Flash retires from the Extraterritorial Battlefield, after all, his dream is to be a 'Local Tyrant'."
Fortress asked via Soul transmission, "Atlas, are the others in your World Ring?"
"They are in my World Ring," Ender nodded.
Fortress said, "Let them out. We need to withdraw from here and go to other places in the 03 Area. We can no longer stay in the 03258838 Area."
The First Battlefield Universe Battlefield, having undergone countless years of combat, has had all its Universe planets shattered due to the fighting, leaving no reference points. Thus, over countless years of combat, it has been divided into seven areas by numerous powerhouses from the four factions, namely 01 to 07 Area.
Among them, 01 Area is the center of the Universe Battlefield, 02 Area is the outer circle of the Universe Battlefield's center, and so on, 07 Area is the outermost part of the Universe Battlefield, and also where the Barracks Bases of the four Pinnacle races are located.
Buzz!
Ender communicated with his World Ring, and as the world fluctuations appeared, eight World Masters instantly appeared in the adjacent Star Domain Universe.
Fortress took out an E9-level Spaceship containing an F9-class metal lounge from his World Ring and said to everyone, "Let's go, get on the spaceship. We need to move to a different area for combat."
"Understood."
"Yes, Captain."
The team members who had just come out nodded in response, then entered the E9-level Spaceship.
Ender switched to his true body and followed them into the spaceship. He understood why the team had to withdraw from the 03258838 Area; it was simply because he had displayed strength comparable to a high-level Military Lord-level Immortal, and also possessed a Marquis-level 108 Main Vines Cloud Vine.
Given the current situation where the three major factions have increased the bounty on Human World Master Geniuses, his display of such strength would undoubtedly attract the attention and pursuit of powerhouses from the three races' factions.
Moving to a different area would also benefit the team members, allowing them to encounter opposing faction teams of equal or even weaker strength in other areas, which would both temper the team members and allow them to gain military merits by killing enemies.
Whoosh!
After everyone entered the E9 Level Universe Spaceship, the spaceship set sail and accelerated in this empty area, quickly reaching light speed and entering the Dark Universe.
...
Among the planetary debris over a hundred million kilometers away from the battlefield.
An Immortal from the Mechanical Race faction, after seeing the direction the E9 Level Universe Spaceship was heading, entered the Mechanical Race's Virtual World.
Setting up a small-scale Virtual World is easy. Covering a star system or a Star Domain with a Virtual World is not particularly difficult either, as the Demon race, for example, can set up a Star Domain-wide Virtual World.
For a race like the Mechanical Race, whose technology is number one in the Universe, they can even set up a Virtual World covering a Star Sector. Multiple connected Virtual Worlds can then cover the entire Mechanical Race Territory.
Virtual technology is not a high-threshold technology; it's just that setting up a Virtual World like the Human Virtual Universe, with such a vast scope and a high degree of realism capable of simulating Law, is extremely difficult!
And in the First Battlefield Universe Battlefield, the Mechanical Race faction can also set up a Virtual World, so powerhouses from the Mechanical Race faction can meet in this Virtual World.
In the Virtual World, inside a room with an extremely metallic aesthetic.
An Immortal from the Mechanical Race faction, though not an Mechanical Race member, was secretly complaining, "The Mechanical Race just has no taste. This room is empty enough, but it also flashes and gleams, truly tacky to the core."
Opposite him was an Mechanical Race member whose body was entirely composed of metal parts, with blue light emanating from his electronic eyes, and even gears visible turning in his chest. From the Immortal pressure he exuded, he was also an Immortal.
"Toller, you previously sent an email saying you discovered a Human World Master in the 03258838 Area."
The Mechanical Race Immortal spoke in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry to tell you, this news is not worth much. I also received this news at the first instance."
"Haha, Sarin, my friend, you underestimate me too much," the alien Immortal Toller laughed. "If my news was only of that level, then I wouldn't have the face to come to you."
Upon hearing this, the Mechanical Race Immortal Sarin's electronic eyes flickered with blue light. "Oh... so you have the latest intelligence on the World Master Cloud Vine."
"Of course, this news is absolutely true, and it's first-hand information," Toller said confidently.
Sarin asked, "How much do you want for the intelligence fee?"
Toller grinned and quoted, "50 Yulan Units!"
"50 Yulan Units?! Are you kidding me?!" Sarin's electronic eyes flickered intensely. "You dare to sell news of a Human World Master for 50 Yulan Units? That's the entire fortune of two World Masters!"
The Yulan Unit is the Mechanical Race's highest-end currency unit. If compared to humans, 2 Yulan Units are approximately equal to 1 Mixed unit.
Of course, because they are hostile races, their money does not flow between them. At most, some powerhouses exchange goods privately. The Mixed unit being approximately equal to 2 Yulan Units is only a rough estimate, and there will be significant fluctuations during actual bartering.
50 Yulan Units, in the Human Territory, is equivalent to the entire fortune of two and a half ordinary World Masters. Selling news of a Human World Master for 50 Yulan Units, in Sarin's opinion, meant Toller was purely taking him for a fool.
Upon hearing this, Toller's confidence wasn't as strong, but he still insisted on 50 Yulan Units. "Uh... that Human World Master is unusual. I think his news is worth 50 Yulan Units."
"Worth 50 Yulan Units..." Upon hearing this, Sarin's electronic eyes no longer flickered so intensely, as if he was thinking.
Soon.
He finished his thought and made his final offer, "30 Yulan Units. This is my final offer. If you think my offer is too low, you can sell the news of that Human World Master to someone else."
"30..." Toller lowered his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment of thought, he replied, "I accept your offer. Transfer 30 Yulan Units to my account."
It was not the first time the two parties had traded, and they had a certain level of trust between them, so Sarin directly transferred 30 Yulan Units to Toller's account.
Toller handed over a piece of information, "This is the information on that Human World Master, and it also includes footage of their direction when they left the 03258838 Area."
"No longer in the 03258838 Area?" Sarin's electronic eyes flickered, and he seemed about to get angry, but ultimately decided to finish reading the information.
Only after reading all the information did Sarin not get angry; instead, the light in his electronic eyes became steady.
"How about it, is this information worth 30 Yulan Units?" Toller smiled.
Sarin nodded slightly, "One whose strength is comparable to a high-level Military Lord-level Immortal, and who also has a Marquis-level 108 Main Vines Cloud Vine for protection, is indeed worth 30 Yulan Units. Your information is very useful."
Although he said this, he secretly thought, "Fortunately, I got this information. Otherwise, if we rashly went to pursue that Human World Master, our team would definitely suffer a great loss."
"Alright, since our transaction is complete, I should go," Toller said, then got up and left the Virtual World.
After Toller left, Sarin muttered to himself, "It seems I need to go back and upgrade..."
...
Dark Universe.
An E9 Level Universe Spaceship was traveling at multiple times the speed of light.
Inside the F9-class metal lounge of the spaceship, Ender and the team members each sat on a sofa.
"We gained a lot from this battle. Not only did we kill multiple World Masters from the Demon race faction, but we also captured a sleeping alien Immortal."
As the team leader, Fortress was summarizing the post-battle results, "Preliminary estimates suggest that the value of the spoils of war that the team can obtain is 712 Mixed-yuan Units. The value of the sleeping Immortal can only be determined after it is sold."
"Wow, 712 Mixed-yuan Units!"
"And a sleeping Immortal to be sold, how many Mixed-yuan Units would that be worth?!"
The team members exclaimed in surprise. 712 Mixed-yuan Units was one thing, but they had even captured a sleeping Immortal.
After everyone settled down, Fortress continued, "Of the 712 Mixed-yuan Units, you can get 20% of it. Lightning Flash and I will each get 25%, and Atlas will get 30%."
"The distribution for the sale of the sleeping Immortal will be: Lightning Flash and I each get 30%, Atlas gets 35%, and you get 5%."
"Don't underestimate this 5%. That sleeping alien Immortal is expected to sell for several thousand Mixed-yuan Units."
Fortress smiled and said, "In other words, you will probably get three to four hundred Mixed-yuan Units."
The team members' faces lit up with joy upon hearing this. They had no complaints. The capture of the Immortal was done by Ender and the other two, so getting 5% of its value, which was three to four hundred Mixed-yuan Units, naturally made them overjoyed.
Finally, Fortress announced, "Additionally, Atlas single-handedly surrounded and killed five Immortals. Since it was a solo kill, all the spoils of war belong to him."
Boom!
Upon hearing Fortress's words, the World Master team members looked at Ender in shock. How did he manage to single-handedly surround and kill five Immortals?
"Atlas, how did you do it?"
"Yeah, how did you do it?"
"Single-handedly surrounding and killing five Immortals, that's not something a World Master can do!"
After the shock, everyone couldn't help but ask, simply because this battle result was too astonishing, it completely overturned their understanding!
"Haha, don't misunderstand."
At this moment, Lightning Flash laughed, "Although Atlas's strength can rival a high-level Military Lord-level Immortal, he is still a World Master and it's very difficult for him to kill an Immortal. He relied on his 108 Main Vines Cloud Vine, which is comparable to a high-level Marquis, to trap and kill the five Immortal from the Demon race faction."
Everyone was still astonished upon hearing this. Not only was his own strength comparable to a high-level Military Lord-level Immortal, but he also had a Cloud Vine comparable to a high-level Marquis for protection. What was the identity of this 'Atlas' to possess such strength and treasures!
"Atlas, what is your origin?"
"You must be a Peerless Genius cultivated by the five Leviathans of Humanity, right? Otherwise, how could you have such powerful strength and treasures."
"Atlas, can you reveal your identity?"
Everyone couldn't help but ask. They were too curious about Ender's identity, as he had repeatedly overturned their previous guesses about him.
Listening to everyone's questions, Ender smiled without answering.
Seeing the team members keep asking, Fortress spoke to stop them, "Alright, don't keep pressing Atlas. Everyone has their own secrets."
Seeing the captain speak, the team members stopped asking and began to rest and chat, of course, they also inevitably talked about Ender's identity.
"Thank you, Captain," Ender smiled and thanked him.
"No problem. Get some good rest," Fortress smiled. "Next, we're heading to other parts of the 03 Area. We might encounter enemies as soon as we leave the Dark Universe."
"Okay."
Ender nodded, closed his eyes, and his consciousness entered the Virtual Universe.
Not long ago, among the spoils of war he obtained from killing the five Demon race Immortal with his Cloud Vine, there was a very valuable item: a special crystal!
Because of that special crystal, he needed to go to the Virtual Universe to process it.
