Chapter 1 The Palace of Lord Mo You

Within the palace of Lord Mo You.

Eight Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms stood below the main hall.

"I was also touched by that mysterious expert. Dozens of threads extended from his palm and penetrated my body, instantly annihilating me." A Yu Clan Origin Lifeform respectfully said, "This is the scene of my death."

He stretched out his left hand and displayed the scene from his memory in mid-air.

Replicating a memory scene was an easy task for any Origin Lifeform.

"I was struck by his spear. Dozens of threads separated from the spear and penetrated my body. This is the memory scene of my death."

"This is mine..."

One by one, the Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms displayed the scenes of their deaths.

Lord Mo You watched the scenes of the human wielding a spear to kill the Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms.

"Can he teleport tens of light-years to chase enemies?"

"As long as he touches you, dozens of colored threads penetrate, and death is certain?"

"Suspected Tier 9 Origin Lifeform?"

Lord Mo You silently summarized the vast amount of information.

"Who is this human?" Lord Mo You asked, "Does anyone recognize him?"

The eight Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms below shook their heads. Even though they had been killed and resurrected, they still didn't know who this human was.

"Lord Mo You," a Yu Clan Origin Lifeform respectfully said, "Among all the information our Yu Clan has collected on human Origin Lifeforms, there is no information about this person. He must have changed his appearance."

"In just three years, he has killed an estimated at least 30 Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms, most of whom are not even qualified to be resurrected." Lord Mo You's emerald eyes grew colder, "With such efficiency, of course he would hide his identity."

Although those who died were all Tier 9, a loss of more than 10 Origin Lifeforms per year would amount to how many over ten thousand years?

"Even Tier 10 peak humans don't have such efficient interception." Lord Mo You's voice grew even colder, "Moreover, he is currently only active in the area around the Ansu Star Alliance. If he goes to the front lines where the fighting is most intense, the number of our Yu Clan leaders he kills each year would increase several times over."

The eight resurrected Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms were also very solemn.

"The universe's human race has Tier 9 Origin Lifeforms distributed among the three major cosmic civilizations and 5,632 star alliances, with a total number reaching the millions! Spears are a common weapon, and there are over a million human Tier 9 Origin Lifeforms who use spears, so it's impossible to check his identity." One of the Yu Clan said with a headache.

"Perhaps his best weapon isn't the spear. He's superficially using the spear to attack, but in reality, it's those dozens of transparent threads." A Yu Clan retorted.

"He's very insidious! On the surface, he uses brilliant techniques that look upright, but in reality, he uses the insidious killing move of those strange threads."

The eight resurrected Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms all felt that the threads were too insidious.

Lord Mo You nodded and gently waved his hand, "You may withdraw."

The eight Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms respectfully bowed and left.

...

Five days later.

Lord Mo You arrived at a gloomy world. Tendril phantoms wandered through this world, and an evil aura spread, eroding Lord Mo You as well. Lord Mo You walked calmly, completely resisting these evil auras.

Finally, he arrived at the largest lake in the entire gloomy world.

"Lord Wu Ke," Lord Mo You said.

*Gugugu*

Bubbles began to rise in the lake. A behemoth slowly floated up from the depths of the lake. As it floated, the gloomy world's 'tendril phantoms' rapidly retreated, all entering the behemoth's body.

As it emerged, the behemoth became smaller and smaller.

When it emerged from the lake, it had become a Yu Clan Lord who looked normal, but his body was wrapped in a robe, and his only exposed head was pitted and scarred. His eyes were like bottomless pools.

This was Lord Wu Ke.

"Lord Mo You, is that you?" Lord Wu Ke didn't open his mouth, but his voice echoed around.

"You can't even speak?" Lord Mo You was a little worried.

"There's no way. A section of a High-Dimensional Lifeform's tentacle after death requires very little merit to exchange for. I could barely afford it." Lord Wu Ke's eyes looked at Lord Mo You as his voice echoed around.

"You're still too reckless. It's very dangerous to fuse with parts of High-Dimensional Lifeform corpses," Lord Mo You said, "But once you fully succeed in fusing and completely master it, the power you unleash will be extremely strong. During the latest 'Emperor' ranking, you were ranked 19th. You should be close to mastering it, right?"

Lord Wu Ke nodded, and his voice echoed, "Soon."

Without fully succeeding in fusion, he could already rank in the top 20 among the Yu Clan's many lords. Once he fully succeeded, the list of the top ten lords would probably change.

"Lord Wu Ke, you are the most powerful of the many lords under my command," Lord Mo You said, "Over the years, I have never sent you to the battlefield."

"I'm very grateful," Lord Wu Ke nodded.

Although the Yu Clan's method of evolution was mainly through battle, fusing with 'High-Dimensional objects' did require some quiet, solitary time.

"The Tianmang Cosmic Domain of the human race that I am in charge of plundering now has a very powerful opponent. I will send you all of his intelligence." Lord Mo You immediately transmitted a stream of information to the other party.

"Interception efficiency comparable to a cosmic legend? Frontal combat power is only at the Tier 9 peak level? Using insidious moves to sneak attack?" Lord Wu Ke quickly understood the information.

"I judge that he is likely a Tier 9 Origin Lifeform, but he has obtained a strange object," Lord Mo You said.

"I agree with your judgment. If he were Tier 10, his killing efficiency would be even higher," Lord Wu Ke nodded.

Lord Mo You said, "I have temporarily given this mysterious human expert the codename 'Dark Gunman'. He looks upright, but he is actually very insidious. I have thought about it, and among the lords I currently manage, you have the greatest chance of success in taking action."

"Killing him will probably result in him being resurrected by the cosmic human race. But the most important thing is... the strange object he carries," Lord Mo You said, "Perhaps it is a treasure that is good at space-time travel. The value of this treasure when used on the battlefield is immeasurable. If you successfully seize that strange object and return, it will be a great contribution."

Lord Wu Ke nodded, and his voice echoed, "It has been over ten thousand years since I've been on the battlefield. Very well, I will go deal with him."

"Based on his interception and rescue habits, I have drawn up a detailed plan for you." Lord Mo You smiled, "By the way, I must also remind you that according to the intelligence of the resurrected Origin Lifeform, the human race's 'Mister Jian' is also in the Ansu Star Alliance."

"Jian?" Lord Wu Ke didn't care, "I can't kill him right now, but he can't do anything to me either."

Lord Mo You had long been aware of this, which was why he had dispatched Lord Wu Ke.

If it weren't for the clan rules that required at least half of the top ten lords to be stationed in the rear during normal times, Lord Mo You would have personally gone to the Tianmang Cosmic Domain long ago.

...

Virtual World Network.

In a world of birds and flowers, Xu Jingming, Li Miaomiao, and Xu Lixing were having a picnic on the top of a mountain. They sat on a blanket, eating barbecue and drinking beer from Blue Star Civilization.

Although Xu Jingming focused on studying knowledge every day, he could maintain three avatars in the Virtual World Network, and he still maintained one avatar to spend time with his family.

Studying was important, but spending time with family was also important.

"Lixing, how do you feel about the group's affairs? Is the pressure high?" Xu Jingming asked while drinking beer.

"Dad, I'm completely familiar with it now, and there's no pressure in handling everything." Xu Lixing said confidently, "Your daughter is a business genius, and every business I've undertaken has been invincible."

"Is that because you have a high talent? It's because... many forces are giving us benefits the first time they deal with us." Li Miaomiao suppressed her daughter's arrogance.

"I'm just bragging in front of Dad, and Mom, you're already tearing me down." Xu Lixing said helplessly, "But whether or not they're giving us benefits, I just feel that everything is very easy and simple, and everything is going very smoothly."

Li Miaomiao also nodded and looked at Xu Jingming, "On the one hand, the various partners are very cooperative, and on the other hand, there are many think tanks such as Mr. Pang who are planning strategies, so the group has been steadily moving forward."

Xu Jingming nodded, "In the beginning, the group's business wasn't very large, but as time goes on, the business will become more and more extensive, and it's impossible for all the forces in the universe to continue to let us have our way. The competition will become more and more intense in the future, so you must be prepared."

"Our group's business is indeed insignificant compared to those behemoths," Xu Lixing said.

Only after truly managing the group did Xu Lixing realize...

The previous 100 trillion cosmic dollars were truly insignificant compared to the truly large forces in the universe. In fact, even if she wanted to buy one, she couldn't even afford a 'Yellow-Clad Envoy' from the Chihmong Group, nor did she have a way to buy one.

Xu Jingming nodded. Let the group slowly manage itself first. Once all aspects become more mature, he would then add more investment.

There was no other way. Whether it was the compensation from the Blackmoon Civilization or the spoils of war from killing the Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms, with the accumulation of wealth from various sources, Xu Jingming's savings had already exceeded 1,000 trillion cosmic dollars.

"If I continue killing like this, intercepting for a thousand years, the wealth I accumulate will probably be comparable to that of some regional forces in the Hunter Cosmic Domain." Xu Jingming was very clear about how quickly his wealth was accumulating.

And all of this stemmed from the Primal Research Institute's 'Space-Time Shuttle' fastest No. 9 Primal Battle Armor. His own strength only accounted for a negligible part, but every year, he was improving.

"Hmm?" Xu Jingming's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes became a little colder.

"What's wrong?" Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing both noticed something was wrong.

"I've received a mission, and I'm in reality rushing to the destination with all my might," Xu Jingming explained, "I'm going offline first."

"Be careful."

"Dad, be careful."

Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing both said. Then they saw Xu Jingming disappear offline.

Although he was still maintaining an online avatar while rushing, when he was about to fight with the Yu Clan Origin Lifeforms, he still needed to be 100% focused.

...

An extremely quiet life planet.

On the planet, whether it was humans or animals, they had all died silently. They had not 'dissipated', and their corpses were still there.

Countless corpses were still in various parts of the planet.

The only 'living thing' was a Yu Clan wearing a robe standing on a city street. His whole body was wrapped up, only revealing a tattered face. He stood there calmly.

He didn't use any techniques, he merely descended upon this planet.

The humans and animals on the planet naturally all died.

"According to Lord Mo You's statistics of the interception patterns, the location of this life planet... is probably the area that the mysterious expert is responsible for." Lord Wu Ke silently waited, "If that mysterious expert rushes to other areas, then it will be bad luck for my team members."

This time, he brought 15 Yu Clan leaders to form a squad.

As always, they would act separately!

If only he came to act, the humans would also think that something was wrong, and at the same time, they would dispatch existences like 'Mister Jian'.

"Hmm?"

Just seven seconds after Lord Wu Ke descended, he suddenly looked up at a starry sky 0.18 light-years away. A black-clothed human appeared there in the ripples of space-time.
