Chapter 679: Chapter 658: Foundation

The reason Deep Dark Fury missed the previous Dragon God’s Gaze was because it discovered another treasure trove, gaining the power inheritance of the Dragon God’s Winter of Death.

The alien giant dragon, which received the same inheritance, extended an invitation to him, and promised that as long as he went to Death Star, the entire race would fully support his ascension to divinity.

The resources on Death Star far surpass those in the Demon Purgatory.

In the Demon Purgatory, the spine-headed demon dragon must compete for resources with other demon dragons and demons, which is not as advantageous as on Death Star.

Despite its decline, Death Star remains a legacy left by a true god.

Deep Dark Fury watched Zhou Leng and fell into contemplation.

The nearby alien giant dragons and alien giants breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the parties could communicate, the True King would not fall into the hands of the Alien Race.

However, why hasn’t the arena appeared yet?

Zhou Leng and Crystal Sky Dust, like a stick beating a wolf, were afraid of both heads. They politely conversed, and instead, their relationship drew closer.

As they were talking, True King Mountain rumbled.

The two-colored beams of light spraying into the sky bent downward, intertwining into a massive stairway, connecting to the mountain’s summit.

The crowd looked over, everyone’s faces filled with doubt.

Crystal Sky Dust smiled and said, “Senior Zhou Leng, it seems neither you nor I can claim the True King. Perhaps both our divine spirits sensed something, deciding not to perform, not preparing for selection through battle, just… hmm?”

He saw two crowns overlapping atop Zhou Leng’s head.

One moment it was a Giant’s True King crown encrusted with two circles of gemstones, the next it turned into a Giant Dragon’s True King crown carved with dragon statues, alternating back and forth.

“Wait for me, I’ll be right back.”

Zhou Leng said, stepping onto the light stairway.

The demigod wraiths nodded slightly. Upon hearing that Zhou Leng initiated the ancient call and Dragon God’s Gaze, they vaguely suspected this possibility, and seeing no arena, there was almost no suspense.

The alien giant dragons and giants struggled to rise, silently making way, bowing their heads in salute.

Crystal Sky Dust watched Zhou Leng’s back, gazing at the ever-changing True King Crown atop his head.

“The foundation of a great clan is indeed different…”

Crystal Sky Dust recalled Zhou Leng’s civilization medal and his grandfather’s words.

“When doing business, it’s about doing business with people first. Choosing the right partner maximizes benefits.”

Crystal Sky Dust pondered for a moment, recalling his experiences in the True King Land, feeling the wonders of destiny ever more.

“Perhaps meeting him is the foundation of my ascent…”

Soon, he clenched his fist.

“The great clan is strict and ruthless, he is likely just one of the many scions, certainly facing pressure…”

“According to the rules of a normal great clan, some memories would be sealed off, preventing contact with High-Level Civilizations to avoid breaching the chains of civilization…”

“However, my encounter with him was serendipitous, perfectly fitting the ’Accidental Encounter Act.’ As long as I don’t provide contraband, merely engaging in normal trade, I won’t be violating any laws…”

“Then… if I use grandpa’s method… understood, by acquiring low-level items from him under the guise of normal transactions, but holding off giving him high-level items. Initially, he might not realize, but once his power grows as he returns to the High-Level Civilization and the memory seal is lifted, he will naturally find out, and by then, he’ll reward me the most generously…”

“Perhaps, my first exclusive starry sky trade route will rest on him.”

Crystal Sky Dust watched Zhou Leng ascend True King Mountain along the stairway of light.

Heaven and Earth trembled, two enormous silhouettes appeared high in the sky, one to the left and one to the right.

A titanic giant, towering like mountains, eyes like stars, gazing forward.

A vast giant dragon, stretching like a continent, eyes blazing like the sun, staring at the giant.

They gazed at each other for a few seconds, lowering their heads to look at Zhou Leng.

One extending a finger, the other a claw, pointing towards Zhou Leng.

Heavenly light descended, day and night alternated, trembling the entire True King Land.

Every creature on the land bowed, in reverence.

Even Crystal Sky Dust, under the divine might of the true gods, lowered his proud head.

A clear sound rang by Zhou Leng’s ear.

It seemed like the sound of ice cracking, or perhaps shackles breaking.

A force seemingly binding him lessened somewhat.

Though faint, this sound spread thousands of miles.

Crystal Sky Dust, his head still lowered, revised his judgment again.

“He is definitely the heir of a great clan! One wonders how many resources that family spent paving the way for today…”

Then, a gateway of light descended from the sky.

One side of the doorframe was the towering giant, the other the soaring giant dragon.

The doorframe settled on Zhou Leng, disappearing from sight.

The demigod wraiths were exceptionally excited.

True King’s Gate.

Though limited in number, it allowed the wraiths to temporarily leave the True King Land, going to where the True King summoned them.

For the spirits treating True King Land as a prison, it’s a monumental piece of good news.

The Winter of Death rubbed its front claws gently, chuckling.

The ritual ended, the light dissipated, and the world returned to normal.

Zhou Leng descended from True King Mountain, and the Giant Dragons of both realms, along with Divine Spirits, all bowed in reverence.

Some even knelt down in deep obeisance, expressing their respect for the Divine Spirit.

Two Dragon God shadows personally crowned him, a divine apparition.

Nominally, Zhou Leng was already the chief wizard and divine envoy of the Yuan Kuo tribe and the Winter of Death tribe, with the qualification to govern the entire tribe and planet on behalf of the gods.

The god on Blue Star was false, but Far-reaching Mountain and the Star of Death were true Divine Spirits.

“Welcome back, Your Majesty Leng of Death, to your homeland, commanding the dragons and soaring into the stars!”

“Welcome back, Your Majesty Leng of Yuan Kuo, to your homeland Yuan Kuo Planet, leading the giants, climbing the stars, and ascending to true divinity!”

The Alien Giant Dragons and Alien Giants dared not force an invitation like before, only dared to kneel as a group of old ministers begging.

Zhou Leng’s face was indifferent as he walked past, leaving behind a group of heartbroken loyalists.

The Alien Giants and Alien Giant Dragons looked at the Trial Takers of the Ten Realms with a flicker in their eyes, their expressions suggesting they might chastise the eunuchs for ruining the nation at any moment.

Crystal Sky Dust sighed deeply, stepping forward with small steps, and smiled, “Prince Zhou Leng, are you interested in engaging in a deal with me? In High-Level Civilization, there are many collectors; many items from Elementary Civilization, once classified as collectibles, can bring me substantial profits. I am willing to trade stellar treasures with you.”

Upon hearing the change in address, Zhou Leng seemed to perceive sincere intent and walked with him to a deserted place.

“What do you have?”

“For example, the most important body refinement resources, the Star Conch.”

Crystal Sky Dust smiled and took out a transparent bag containing over twenty thousand Star Conchs.

Zhou Leng took out a space wooden box, opened it to show him.

Several million Star Conchs piled together, dazzling and radiant.

Crystal Sky Dust smiled awkwardly and said, “You deserve your praise, I have shown my weakness.”

He felt not embarrassed but found it too normal, that large clans would certainly choose a planet abundant with certain resources for direct descendants, with Star Conchs being one of the crucial resources.

Crystal Sky Dust feared being looked down upon and resolutely took out various stellar cultivation resources.

Zhou Leng listened to his explanation, occasionally glancing towards the terrifying divine guard.

Zhou Leng looked several times, and upon noticing, Crystal Sky Dust helplessly said, “If you really want the terrifying divine guard, although it’s not mine but my family’s, I am willing to gift it to you. However, this item easily violates bans, once detected, not only you but also my entire family would be implicated.”

“I understand,” Zhou Leng said, “By the way, are you here for stellar trading?”

Crystal Sky Dust smiled and said, “Yes. However, I was placed under a gag order, not allowed to speak a word. You can understand.”

“Has the transaction been completed?”

“It’s completed.”

Zhou Leng nodded, thinking it a pity, not knowing what exactly the Celestial Calamity Envoy smuggled, it must be particularly important treasures.

He would inform the Demon City Army upon returning to prevent unforeseen events.

The two chatted about stellar treasures, Zhou Leng took out the Divine Essence Pill recipe, asking if there were more medicinal materials available.

Crystal Sky Dust questioned, “This is typically a Little Star Pill, the materials aren’t difficult for me, what’s challenging is the alchemy furnace. You should understand, the value of an alchemy furnace is ten times that of an attack divine artifact, more valuable than the terrifying divine guard.”

Zhou Leng waved his right hand, a Star Refining Furnace appeared in his hand.

Crystal Sky Dust looked carefully, his gemstone eyes emitted a faint bright light.

“Heavenly Ancestor above! You actually have an antique divine artifact from billions of years ago? The Star Refining Furnace of that era, I have seen at the stellar auction, this is an incalculable fortune. Truly the foundation of a great clan…”

Crystal Sky Dust sincerely admired, realizing he was too provincial.

Zhou Leng put it away, smiling without speaking.

Crystal Sky Dust said, “Judging by its condition, you probably haven’t started using it. Before you refine Divine Essence Pills, you should use other Little Star Pills to nurture the alchemy furnace, while accumulating alchemy experience…”

Crystal Sky Dust took a glance around.

He secretly took out some things from his own stellar bag, handing them to Zhou Leng.

“This is a set of extracurricular books, um, it’s just extracurricular books, accumulating a substantial amount of alchemy experience; as long as you read them yourself and don’t spread them, you’ll be mostly fine. If someone really investigates, just say you dug them out of ancient ruins…”

“This is one of the main materials for refining Little Star Pills, ’Planet Core,’ captured by the Void God from a complete planet, slowly refined into the main material for the Pill. Standard material, can save you a lot of time…”

“These materials are auxiliary materials needed for various ordinary Little Star Pills, among which are some universal auxiliary materials; if you add a little when refining the Divine Essence Pill, the success rate will increase by at least twenty percent. These are not mine, but my family’s…”

After trading many items, Crystal Sky Dust regretfully said, “It’s a pity you probably don’t have a World Instrument, otherwise we could communicate through stellar messaging, though it might be slow since you’re not in the celestial region, but it still…”

Zhou Leng’s right hand presented a World Instrument, slowly turning, resembling a Celestial Instrument.

“The foundation of a great clan…” Crystal Sky Dust sighed, even suspecting this great clan dispatched people to traverse the void, burying treasures in Elementary Civilization secretly billions of years ago.

The World Instrument itself was already extremely precious, and for it to fall into Elementary Civilization’s hands, the significance was extraordinary.

He looked carefully, it was still a new model, which was more daunting than secretly burying treasures.

This family was truly omnipotent, not bothered by the shackles of civilization, quite possibly possessing great divine spirits above the star emperor…

Crystal Sky Dust thought to himself, taking out his older version World Instrument, lightly touching it with Zhou Leng’s World Instrument.

Add as a friend.

Crystal Sky Dust quietly said, “World Instrument should not transmit things recklessly, easily detected. However, any public information I publish, you can secretly download, it’s not my concern.”

Zhou Leng lightly nodded.

Understood.

Cosmic network circle +1.
