“Brother-in-law, again?!”

“Wang Ye, can’t you take a break?!”

“What do you know? Sir is spreading the seeds of love!”

“Screw your screws!” Wang Ye cursed in his heart and took the main control position again.

“Starships are starting to appear.” There were already many signal responses within a light year on the radar.

Even though the radar could only detect starships of the same level and below, in this short one light year, the signals exceeded 100,000.

Wang Ye knew very well what this meant. He had come to the right place!

Everyone was searching for the same target. Most of the people who could come to this place had some information. Either they had received intelligence, they had Ancient Battlefield weapon fragments, or they had advanced exploration items.

Wang Ye continued to follow Fire Chimes. He had been worried about being discovered, but now there was no need to. After all, there were too many cosmic ships.

The area of a light year was actually very large. Never mind a hundred thousand signals, even if there were tens of millions of them, it would not be easy to encounter another starship, except at the periphery of some wormholes.

“Red River Cosmic Nation, Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation, Shangxian Yuan

Cosmic Nation, Silverjade Cosmic Nation…” Wang Ye searched.

Starships within the 0.01 light-year radius radar range had already sent signals over. The vast majority were from the families of the cosmic nations.

Adjacent to the Ancient Battlefield Milky Way were over 10 cosmic nations. In particular, the Red River Cosmic Nation, Queshan Cosmic Nation, Darning Cosmic Nation, Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation, and Silverjade Cosmic Nation were the closest and had the most numbers.

The exploration and occupation of the area was also mainly based on these 5 cosmic nations.

The five military camps advanced at the same time, scattered across every corner of the Ancient Battlefield, fighting against the demon and devil races.

Even though he belonged to the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation, he didn’t have any family symbol or recognition.

His starship was connected to the Al supernet provided by the human virtual cosmic, hence it was unable to display the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation’s symbol.

“Fortunately, I was prepared.” Wang Ye opened the basic cosmic adventurer package and took out the one-star adventurer chip that represented his identity. He had All Sheng install it on Sun Harmony.

Soon, a one-star cosmic adventurer’s totem appeared on Sun Harmony, indicating the starship’s ownership.

This was very important. It meant that he was currently a neutral cosmic adventurer.

In such a chaotic area, joining a faction could provide strong protection!

It wasn’t completely neutral though. After all, cosmic adventurers and the cosmic pirates were mortal enemies.

However, the various cosmic nations had mortal enemies too. For example, the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation and the Red River Cosmic Nation, the Queshan Cosmic Nation and the Darning Cosmic Nation, the Silverjade Cosmic Nation and the other cosmic nations.

The 105 cosmic nations in Taishi Starfield had complicated relationships. Not only were there many wars against other races, but there was also unrest internally, especially when it came to fighting for territory.

The Human Sanctuary couldn’t care less. This was because there were only two endings for Taishi Starfield – either they would be ruled by other cosmic races or one of the 105 cosmic nations could rise and rule Taishi Starfield, becoming a starfield empire.

“Hmm? So many signals?” Lingling’s fair and tender feet were bare, and she was wearing a white nightgown with spaghetti straps. She stood behind him, and the fragrance of her shower foam wafted into his nose.

“Why did you come out?” Wang Ye didn’t even turn his head.

“I wanted to see how you bully Lulu again!” Lingling pouted and looked at Lulu, mumbling. “Is the Thousand Feather race that attractive?”

Yes, it was like an electric shock.

Wang Ye rubbed the soft and boneless Lulu, and the latter woke up with a moan.

Her almost transparent body quickly became translucent again. She looked at Wang Ye and Lingling and curled up her small body, feeling a little embarrassed.

H

I’ll leave the rest to you, Lulu.” Wang Ye got up. “Continue following the Fire

Chimes.”

More than 90% of the starships around them were still exploring. Following them around like headless flies would provide low efficiency.

Although the Fire Chimes was also wandering around, it was closer to them and had a fixed pattern. It had locked onto a certain area.

“Yes, Master.” Lulu quickly entered a state of concentration.

Her exquisite and translucent beautiful eyes looked at the vast signal source, and she was so nervous that her wings trembled slightly again.

As her best friend, Lingling was very familiar with Lulu.

“Relax,” She comforted her gently. “We’re here.”

“Alright.” Lulu turned around and smiled at Lingling.

???

Wang Ye looked at Lingling’s little hand touching the wings and was very confused.

Why wasn’t it triggered? Shouldn’t it be vibrating like a rocket now?

Was she targeting him?

“Brother-in-law, are they all here for treasure hunting?” Lingling turned around and asked.

“Yes.” Wang Ye put away his puzzlement. “The mystical engravings on the Ancient Battlefield weapon fragment have lit up. With so many starships here, we can basically rule out the possibility that the reaction is caused by the wormhole.”

“Wow, so our chance is here?” Lingling said happily.

“Yes, there are roughly three possibilities. Ancient Battlefield ruins,” Wang Ye said. “A treasure land that contains dark crystals or other Ancient Battlefield weapon fragments, or the black or white realm.”

“That’s great! Finally, we don’t have to stay in the starship anymore! I’m almost bored to death.” Lingling pouted her pink lips.

Someone who spent half of her time in the virtual world had the nerve to say that?

Lingling wasn’t slacking off. She had basically cultivated to the upper limit. After all, her soul was occupying a body that wasn’t hers, so the chances of breaking through to the Dark Energy level were very low. There was no need to take this risk.

“Don’t be happy too early. Either one is very risky. Treasures don’t belong to the fated,” Wang Ye said. “They belong to the strong. Without sufficient strength, even if we obtain a treasure, we won’t be able to defend it.”

“Then how much of a chance do we have?” Lingling looked at Wang Ye.

“I don’t know. We can only take it one step at a time.” Wang Ye said, “Judging from the scale of the war between military camps, it’s mainly still between Dark Energy Lifeforms and Cosmic Lifeforms. There’s still a long way to go from here to the Silver Core. Super Star-level experts won’t show up for the time being, so we shouldn’t waste our time exploring. We have a chance, but we have to be very careful.”

Dark Energy Lifeforms were already very strong.

For example, the long-robed martial instructor who guided him was only at Dark Energy level 9.

Among the five people on his side, other than himself who could fight against a Dark Energy-level expert, Ah Sheng and Nante were equally strong. They could barely deal with a beginner Dark Energy-level expert.

As for Lingling and Lulu, they were standard cosmic-level 9 strength.

In the military camp, they were basically cannon fodder.

Middle reaches. This was Wang Ye’s evaluation of his strength.

It wasn’t too bad. It made it possible to grasp some opportunities without attracting too much attention.

His current progress should also be at the middle level of information.

He had to dig quickly!

Wang Ye entered Small Virtual World No.36, the projection of the Cosmic Adventurer Association in the Ancient Battlefield Milky Way.

“There are so many people.” Wang Ye strolled around.

Many one-star and two-star cosmic adventurers were gathered.

As expected, there were no three-star adventurers yet.

Split up!

Although he had the flight records and coordinates of the Fire Chimes, since he had joined the cosmic adventurer camp, he naturally had to make good use of it.

“Search nearby groups.” Wang Ye used this function and quickly found many groups.

Most of them had stringent requirements to join. For example, only two-star adventurers could join, or only Dark Energy-level experts could join, and so on. Some had a limit on the number of people, some needed coordinates, and some even closed the application channel.

The groups were arranged according to the activity level and the number of people.

Wang Ye didn’t consider those. He sent out applications one by one, not picky at all.

What he needed now was information!

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, the first step was to obtain enough information before slowly filtering it.

Soon, a few groups accepted the application.

They were very cold, not even offering a welcome or a greeting. The number of members was basically in the single digits.

The applications to groups with high activity were all rejected, just like when he submitted his resume.

“I heard that someone has found the coordinates?”

“Where? Where?”

“Don’t ask. Those who know would have made a fortune silently long ago.”

“Is there anyone who wants to form a party? Let’s add each other as friends.”

“What party? We’re all looking for a way out. It’s just a blind cat trying to kill a mouse. It depends on who’s lucky.”

“I’ll give you guys a method. Lock onto the cosmic nation starships that have a confirmed direction. The higher the level and power of the starships, the better. It means that the citizens of the cosmic nations are of a higher class, and these people usually have information!”

Wang Ye silently scrolled through the screen.

Most of it was useless information but some were still helpful to him.

What he could be sure of now was – some things had already been discovered in this area!

On top of that, there was a high chance that the first batch of cosmic nation families had already entered. That was why a large amount of information was leaked, attracting more and more starships from the cosmic nations.

There would be more in the future and the competition might be very intense!

After applying for all the groups that he could, Wang Ye left the human virtual cosmic and returned to Sun Harmony.

“How was it? Did you get anything?” Nante had already come out of the cultivation room, his eyes blazing with a fiery aura.

Lingling changed into her white battle suit and looked at him expectantly.

“I’m almost sure.” Wang Ye’s gaze landed on the radar.

He watched as the distance between Sun Harmony and the Fire Chimes shortened. Compared to other information sources, he trusted the Fire Chimes more than anything else.

On one hand, the strength of the Fire Chimes was at the top of all starships.

On the other hand, the Fire Chimes had dug deep into this area and had a lot of information.

Most importantly, he did not have any other reliable clues.

“In about four more cosmic days, we should be able to reach where the Fire Chimes are now.” Wang Ye carefully looked at the radar and the direction of the other signal sources.

Suddenly–

Beep!

The Starry Sky Bracelet issued a notification.

Wang Ye exclaimed and realized that the coordinate sharing with Yu Min had been disconnected.

Did the other party take the initiative to cut the connection? Was it a bad signal?

Or…

Wang Ye hesitated for a while.

He didn’t receive any messages from Yu Min, so he sent her a message. It was like a stone sinking into the ocean.

Whoosh!

Wang Ye’s eyes lit up.

He quickly tried calling Yu Min. The connection failed. There was no response from the video call either, as expected!

“What’s wrong?” Lingling’s beautiful eyes looked over.

Wang Ye looked at the coordinates on the radar and said, “Fire Chimes might have gone in..”
