Devouring the Stars: The Master of Metaphysics

Li Qi asked softly: "What are the conditions?"

King Que Que said in a deep voice: "King Xingyue, your defense skills are recognized by everyone, and my condition is very simple, that is, you must protect me during adventures in dangerous places."

Hearing this, Li Qi frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he saw King Que Que speak again.

"King Star Death, please don't misunderstand me." Seeing Li Qi's expression change slightly, King Juan Que quickly explained: "What I mean by protecting him is to protect him as much as possible, not to do everything he can, regardless of the risk of his life."

Li Qi asked curiously: "King Zhuque, aren't you afraid that if I agree to your promise, I will not be able to do my best in an adventure in a dangerous place?"

King Yanque solemnly said: "You, King Xingyue, are a super genius cultivated by the human race, and you are also a newly crowned king who is at the peak of immortality. You must not be a person who breaks your word."

Li Qi smiled slightly and said, "Yes, I will try my best to ensure your safety during the adventure in dangerous places."

"Since you, Star Death King, have agreed to my terms, then the harvest from adventuring in dangerous areas will be divided between you 35%, me 35%, and Partridge Wing King 30%."

King Que Que added: "The trophies are not harvested from adventure in dangerous places, so the trophies obtained belong to the individual."

Li Qi nodded, indicating that he knew.

"King Star Death, before venturing into a dangerous place, I will notify you to gather at a certain coordinate. You must not go into retreat then." King Juan Que reminded.

"Don't worry, I won't miss it." Li Qi affirmed.

"Okay, then see you again in a thousand years." King Zhuque nodded, then stood up and disappeared into a white light.

Partridge Wing King greeted: "Star Death King."

"Thank you just now, King Partridge Wing." Li Qi said: "If you hadn't persuaded King Juan Que to stop him, he wouldn't have agreed to my conditions."

The Part Wing King smiled and said: "Haha, Star Death King, you are too polite. You and I are both members of the Hongmeng. Helping each other a little is nothing."

Li Qi smiled when he heard this and did not explain that he had not joined Hongmeng yet.

"We'll talk again when we have a chance in the future, so I won't disturb you, Star Death King." After finishing speaking, Partridge Wing King turned into a white light and left.

Seeing the two Immortal Kings leaving, Li Qi also teleported away.

…

Thunder Island, Palace of Star Death King.

In the palace with two distinct colors, Li Qi sat on the throne with the same two distinct colors and whispered to himself: "Ah, it's interesting."

"King Partridge Wing was unwilling to give up his share, and even intended to obtain more shares. However, King Juan Que, faced with my somewhat excessive distribution requirements, actually gritted his teeth and agreed under the former's persuasion."

"Although King Juan Que has put forward conditions, in essence, it is just to give himself a step down."

"Adventures like this in dangerous places are still possible when there is an immortal king from the demon camp. As long as he can save anyone, he will save anyone. After all, one less powerful person at the peak of the king means that there is less power to fight against the demon camp. "

Li Qi lightly tapped the armrest of the throne with his fingers, "It seems that King Juan Que and King Partridge Wing are very interested in that dangerous place. They think that there may be many treasures in that dangerous place, so they did not hesitate to lower their share to invite me to join."

"Well, I need to make more preparations. Both the micro detector and the large detector need to be updated, and cultivating immortal plant life should also be upgraded."

After saying that, Li Qi's consciousness left the virtual universe and disappeared into the two-colored palace.

…

Virtual universe, original area manor.

When Li Qi's consciousness entered the virtual universe again, he had arrived in the manor's study.

And his current identity is ‘Li Qi’, the main member of the original secret realm.

Sitting on the sofa, Li Qi moved his fingers on the light screen in front of him to check the items he needed to buy.

"With 500 billion Hunyuan units, if you purchase some items as the Star Death King, you will not be able to enjoy the discounts offered by members of the original secret realm. What's more, my authority has been increased and I can now get a 40% discount."

Since he was able to understand the mystery of 'space teleportation', Li Qi found that his authority had been improved, and he could now enjoy a 40% discount on items purchased in the virtual universe treasure house.

"First of all, the detector. This time we go on a dangerous adventure, we must buy a better detector."

Li Qi searched for the detector, and instantly a lot of detector data appeared on the light screen.

SFRET01 - Type 102983: Detection radius is 1 billion kilometers, 5 million points are required (the discount is at least 50% off and up to 10% off, you can get 40% off), detailed information can be viewed here.

SFRET02——Type 102983: Detection radius is 300 million kilometers, 4 million points are required (discount is at least 50% off, up to 10% off, you can get 40% off), detailed information can be viewed here.

…

SDU01——Type 000001: Detection radius is 1 billion kilometers, 50 billion points are required (discount is at least 50% off, up to 10% off, you can get 40% off), detailed information can be viewed here.

SDU02——Type 000001: Detection radius is 300 million kilometers, 40 billion points are required (the discount is at least 50% off and up to 10% off, you can get 40% off), detailed information can be viewed here.

…

a111——Type 192039: 100 kilometers detection radius, 1 million points required (the lowest discount is 50% off, the highest is 10% off, you can get 40% off), detailed information can be viewed here.

a112——Type 192039: Detection radius is 20 kilometers, 800,000 points are required (the minimum discount is 50% off, the maximum is 10% off, you can get 40% off), detailed information can be viewed here.

…

Li Qi looked through the detector model information. Many ultra-high-end detectors are not visible to ordinary members of the original secret realm. Only he can see them with high special permissions.

"Although I have 500 billion Hunyuan units and a 40% discount, but for ultra-high-end detectors like that..."

Looking at those sky-high detectors worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of points, Li Qi had to shake his head and skip them. That was not something he could afford with his current cash flow.

"Large detectors should still be purchased with a radius of 1 billion kilometers. For micro detectors..."

Because he would go to a dangerous place to adventure a thousand years later, Li Qi chose a micro detector with a detection radius of 100 kilometers.

A micro detector with a radius of 100 kilometers would be more conducive to his survival and exploration in dangerous places.

"It's really expensive. Two detectors cost more than 100 billion Hunyuan units."

After screening, Li Qi placed an order to purchase large and micro detectors. Because they were purchased with Hunyuan units, even with a 40% discount, it was still very expensive.

"The detector alone costs hundreds of billions of Hunyuan units. When buying and cultivating immortal plant life, you have to consider the success rate..." Li Qi's fingers slid across the light curtain, his eyes fixed on the 'Star-eating Grass' displayed on the light curtain.

Originally, he planned to cultivate the '360 Main Vine Moyun Teng'.

But the problem is that the '360 Main Vine Moyun Teng' has a success rate of only 40% in the best solution to become an immortal divine power. Even if some treasures that increase the probability of success are added, the success rate is only more than 50%.

The best solution for the '360 Main Vine Moyun Teng' costs nearly 11.6 billion points. If treasures that increase the success rate are added, the total cost will be close to 20 billion points.

Cultivating Star-eating Grass is different. The 'Five Hundred Vine Immortal Star-eating Grass' is comparable to the '360 Main Vine Immortal Moyun Teng', both of which are equivalent to the King of High-level Immortals.

But the best solution of the ‘Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass’ has a 46% chance of becoming an immortal god. Even if some treasures are added to increase the success rate, the required points are only 19 billion points, which is higher than the success rate of the ‘360 Main Vine Moyun Vine’.

The only trouble is that the Star-Eating Grass is expensive and most people don’t have a way to buy it.

Of course, for Li Qi, the Star-Eating Grass is not difficult to buy. After all, his identity and authority are very high, which has exceeded the peak immortality of the King.

Star-Eating Grass: Known as the "toughest offensive plant life", the so-called "toughest" here refers to some plant life that can be sold in the human race, and in the vast universe, there are still some magical plant life that can be called solitary, which cannot be sold.

This Star-Eating Grass naturally likes to devour rocks, metals, trees, etc., making its vines extremely tough and sharp. Its means of attack is very simple, which is a "tangled kill"!

Moyun Vine is different from Star-Eating Grass. Moyun Vine is actually mainly defensive, with some attack capabilities.

Li Qi originally planned to cultivate the '360 main vine Moyun vine' because of its defensive ability after being transformed into Moyun vine armor, but due to limited funds, he had to change to cultivate the cheaper 'Five Hundred Vine Star-eating Grass'.

Cultivating Star-eating Grass is also good, because this Star-eating Grass is an "aggressive plant life" and is known as the "toughest", so it is naturally a very good auxiliary helper, such as when fighting...

Star-eating grass has countless vines to entangle the opponent. As long as it can entangle to affect the opponent's speed and attack, I am afraid that the outcome of a battle will be rewritten!

Li Qi pointed his finger and bought a Star-eating Grass in the virtual universe treasure house, many cultivation resources and treasures that increase the success rate.

Then, he looked at the balance in the account and sighed: "500 billion Hunyuan units are not spent, and now there are less than 300 billion Hunyuan left."

At present, he has only completed two items of his shopping plan, and he has spent more than 200 billion Hunyuan units, and there are still Femo venom and space law refining materials that have not been purchased.

Then, Li Qi searched for Femo Venom in the virtual universe treasure house, and the next moment, the information about Femo Venom appeared on the light screen.

Femo Venom, 1 gram is worth 300 million Hunyuan units, and it is a terrible potion prepared by "Femo", a powerful pharmacist in the human race...

Looking at the information about Femo Venom on the light screen, Li Qi whispered to himself: "The weapon I use is a spear, and the scope of Femo Venom is only the spear head. It is estimated that one application and curing will consume 20 grams."

"At present, my cash is less than 300 billion Hunyuan units. Buying 400 grams of Femo Venom is enough for 20 applications, which can support me in many battles."

As he said, Li Qi bought 400 grams of Femo Venom worth 120 billion Hunyuan units, and instantly reduced the remaining cash to more than 150 billion Hunyuan units.

"Well... I have to refine a spear, which is specially used to apply and solidify Femo Venom."

Li Qi searched for space law refining materials, and rows of material names suddenly appeared on the light screen.

Void Flame Gold, Liyu Purple Cobalt, Blood-Patterned Universe Stone...

He even saw Void Network Crystal on the list, but the price was very touching, up to 6 billion Hunyuan units per kilogram, and there was no discount!

"The materials in the Virtual Universe Company's treasury are indeed more expensive than the normal transaction price outside, but I have a 40% discount so it's much cheaper."

Li Qi looked at the space law refining materials one by one, and bought thousands of tons of Liyu Purple Cobalt and Void Flame Gold, spending hundreds of millions of Hunyuan units in total.

Finally, he looked at the Void Network Crystal that was not discounted and gritted his teeth to buy 10 kilograms.

The reason for buying Void Network Crystal is mainly because the weapon he is currently using is not good enough, and it is only at the eighth-grade upper level.

It should be noted that the weapons normally used by peak immortal kings are often ninth-level weapons made from precious G-grade metals. Compared with Li Qi's weapons, they are indeed inferior.

Because his level of secret skills was not high enough, it was impossible to refine a ninth-level weapon without stacking materials, so he had to buy void crystals to stack materials to refine weapons.

"As long as I add the void crystal, the difficulty of refining a ninth-level weapon will be greatly reduced. Then I can refine two ninth-level spears and the ninth-level flying telekinesis weapon 'Liying Shuttle'."

In Li Qi's view, the two ninth-level spears are easy to refine. All you need to do is pile materials inside.

As for the ninth-level flying telekinesis weapon 'Liying Shuttle', he is sure to upgrade it to the ninth level within a thousand years. After all, he spent a huge sum of money to purchase the void crystal.

After shopping, Li Qigang only received less than 90 billion of the 500 billion mixed yuan units.

…

Time passed and it was already decades later.

Inside the World Ring.

On the vast continent, there is a giant tree with a height of 1,600 kilometers in the sky. Its crown covers the sky with a diameter of tens of thousands of kilometers like a big umbrella, and countless roots of different thicknesses stretch for tens of thousands of kilometers.

Not far from the giant tree, thousands of kilometers high in the sky, there was a red flame dozens of meters in diameter suspended in the sky. Within the flame was a bright red spear rotating slowly.

Li Qi stood on a root with a diameter of more than one kilometer, looking at the red flame in the sky that radiated temperature that distorted the air, as if it could burn the space.

He looked through the red flames and stared at the spear with the secret pattern of the law on the barrel. "After decades of refining, the first ninth-level spear is finally ready."

A few hours later.

The red flame dissipated, revealing a bright red spear that was still emitting a terrifying temperature. However, as time went by, the red color of the spear gradually faded, revealing the original purple color of the spear.

"It is mainly composed of a trace amount of Void Complex Crystal, supplemented by a large amount of Liyu Purple Cobalt and a small amount of Void Flame Gold. The color is exactly the same as the color of Feimo's venom."

Li Qi nodded with satisfaction, "After the gun tip is coated with solidified Femo venom, it is difficult to see any abnormalities."

After the spear cooled down completely, with the power of the world, the purple ninth-level spear quickly fell in front of him.

Li Qi gently stroked the gun barrel as if it was designed to be anti-slip, but in fact it was a pattern of laws and secrets. It felt like the king was immortal and could be killed!

"There's still one last step left."

Taking out the black suitcase from the space ring, Li Qi held a long gun in one hand and floated to the ground with the black suitcase in the other.

Gently placing the suitcase on the ground, he whispered: "Open it."

Snap!

The black suitcase was opened, revealing twenty crystals inside. Each crystal was filled with a thrilling purple liquid, flowing slowly like mercury.

"According to my request, 400 grams of Fermo's venom is divided into twenty tubes, each tube is 20 grams."

Li Qi took out a crystal and carefully applied Feimo's venom to the head of the newly refined ninth-level spear... (End of this chapter)
