‘What’s wrong?” Du Gang looked at her in confusion.

Barbara chuckled, “I need to register on your light computer…”

“We, intelligent life forms, need to register on a light computer in advance if we want to log into the virtual universe!”

Du Gang was surprised: “You can enter it too?”

“Of course!”

Barbara gleefully added, “Behind the scenes of the virtual universe are the most powerful intelligent life forms!”

Du Gang was stunned, the virtual universe also possessed intelligence.

Soon, Barbara took a chip from Du Gang’s original watch, saying, “Insert this chip into your light computer. Once that’s done, my information will be registered…”

After Du Gang did as instructed, Barbara nodded, “Alright. I am now connected to the virtual universe. From now on, I can reside both in the virtual universe and in reality!”

Although Du Gang did not understand what it meant, he still congratulated her anyway.

“Let’s get started!”

Du Gang excitedly switched on the light computer, ready to log in.

“Ding! ”

“Your account has not been activated. Please activate it at your local virtual universe company…”

Du Gang was taken aback, looking at Barbara, he asked, “Does this thing also need activation?”

Barbara looked embarrassed, “The old master used to log in unrestrictedly, I forgot about it…”

Quickly, she pulled up a map, “There is a branch of the virtual universe corporation on the Star of Talent. It’s not far from here, let’s go open an account!”

“Alright!”

Du Gang reluctantly agreed and headed out once again.

“How much does it cost to open an account?”

Barbara giggled, “I know that. Their account fees cost one Source Crystal per year.”

“One Source Crystal per year?”

Du Gang queried: “Don’t they accept paper currency?”

Barbara shook her head, “The value of the currency system is different in every place… ”

“You’ve seen this too, the money in our eighth and ninth star regions, as well as the currency in the third to the seventh suburban star regions are not recognised by the Milky Way Empire…”

“Even the currency in the Milky Way Empire isn’t recognised in the White

Dragon Mountain’s Primarv Universe.”

“Not recognised?” Du Gang frowned, “Then how are their trade settlements carried out?”

“Source Crystal of course, or Stellar Crystal if that’s not available. Both of these energy crystals are universally traded in the cosmos…”

He roughly understood. Similar to how the Milky Way Empire was ruled by Zhou Haotian, if he mass-produced currency and then exchanged it in the White Dragon Mountain Universe, wouldn’t they incur a big loss?

Barbara chuckled: “Here, the exchange rate between the currency of the White

Dragon Mountain and Galaxy Coins is 1:10,000. But if you want to exchange Galaxy Coins for the currency of the White Dragon Mountain, it’s not possible because they don’t accept it!”

“Additionally, the value of Source Crystals varies in different regions…”

“Like right now, didn’t you just exchange Source Crystals for 10,000 Galaxy Coins? If in the White Dragon Mountain Universe, one Source Crystal is worth around 10,000 White Dragon Coins…”

Upon hearing this, Du Gang was shocked: “A 10,000 times difference? So, if I get a bunch of Source Crystals from Milky Way Empire and exchange them in the White Dragon Mountain Universe and then go back to the Milky Way Empire to exchange money, wouldn’t I make a fortune?”

Barbara laughed: “It’s not that simple. The distance between universes is not near. For instance, where we are in the Milky Way Galaxy, even the nearest Stellar System is three to four hundred thousand light years away. If you want to get to the White Dragon Mountain Universe, at the very least, you’d have to traverse several billion light years. Do you know how much fuel such a long distance requires? Moreover, you must use a spacecraft that can perform large-scale jumps, not wasting time. Such a business, spanning several billion light years, could only be managed by the four major corporations!”

After some consideration, Du Gang agreed that was the case. Such a vast distance could only be traversed using space jumps.

Even if a spaceship could reach the speed of light, the journey from Milky Way Empire to the White Dragon Mountain Universe would still take billions of years.

For such a wide distance, there is no significant difference between proceeding at thirty or a hundred times the speed of light; you won’t be able to go much further.

Moreover, how much fuel would it take to power a spaceship for billions of years?!

Du Gang furrowed his brows, “Given the vast distance, why do the four major corporations bother setting up a base here?”

Barbara laughed: “One aspect is for resources. The universe is full of wonder and can produce many rare treasures. They station themselves here to collect these treasures at low cost from various remote areas …”

“On the other hand, they are here to attract talent for their companies!”

“You must know that the reputation of the four major corporations in the universe is based solely on their strength. Therefore, talented individuals are of great importance to them!”

As they spoke, they arrived at the nearest virtual universe corporation.

The enormous building, ten thousand meters tall, was entirely the virtual universe’s office point.

Depending on one’s power, the floor one needs to reach would vary.

From a distance, Du Gang saw signs on every one or two thousand floors.

Soon, on the second sign from the top, around the eight thousandth floor, he saw the port for planet-level powerhouses to do their business.

Seeing this, he quickly flew up.

The floors responsible for receiving planet-level strongmen were only a thousand in total, but at this moment, many customers were served and there were many places showing full lights.

“No way, where did so many people come from?”

He was surprised, in the eighth star region a planet-level powerhouse could be a monarch of a kingdom…

Barbara laughed: “It’s normal, actually. This place gathers the strong from the third to ninth star regions of the Milky Way spiral arm, most of the planet-level experts from various places have basically all come here. You should know, the virtual universe can do many things .

“Plus, the price of one Source Crystal per year, has made numerous people pay bit by bit!”

Soon, he found a portal and flew in.

“Hello, sir, can I assist you with anything?”

A beautiful woman dressed in a uniform was sitting behind the counter, looking at him.

Du Gang spoke, “I just got a Light Computer and I want to log into the virtual universe, open an account…”

The woman smiled and said, “The cost to open an account is one Source Crystal per year, we do not accept other currencies…”

“In addition to this, our current promotions are, if you activate ten years of virtual universe time at once, you get an additional year free, if you activate a hundred years at once, you get eleven additional years free, if you activate a thousand years at once, you get an additional one hundred and eleven years free!”

She didn’t speak about options higher than that, because the customers here typically only activate one year or ten years at a time. Very few people activated a hundred or a thousand years at once.

Du Gang thought for a moment, then took out a thousand Source Crystals with a faint smile, “I’ll start with a thousand years!”

The woman, looking at the Source Crystals piled up on the counter, was stunned and quickly stood up. “Sir, please wait a moment!”

“Pat, pat, pat!” After a quick jog to the back, another woman, even more attractive, arrived.

“Hello, I am the branch manager of the virtual universe company on this floor. Are you sure you want to activate a thousand years?”

It was clear that such a large customer was not something the previous woman at the counter dared to handle, in case anything went awry.

Du Gang laughed and said, “One thousand Source Crystals, in exchange for one thousand one hundred and eleven years of time, right?!”

“Yes, sir!” The customer manager was extremely polite, her eyes full of ambiguity when looking at Du Gang.

Anyone who could activate this much time at once must be from a wealthy family!

“Then activate it, give it to me straight away!”

Du Gang waved his hand grandly and said in a bold voice.

He still had one million Source Crystals in his spatial ring, enough to spend!

“Alright!”

Then, with the help of the customer manager, his account was quickly activated and one thousand one hundred and eleven years of time were activated!

“It’s all set up, do you need any other services?” As the customer manager handed back the Light Computer, she bent down deeply, revealing her impressive figure.

Du Gang glanced at her and shook his head, “No need, thank you!” After saying that, he took the Light Computer and left.

With an excited mood, he quickly returned to the villa he was renting.

“Let’s go to the virtual universe!”

“Great, finally I can return to the virtual universe!” It was apparent that Bala was even more excited than Du Gang.

She hadn’t been in the virtual universe for a hundred thousand years.

“Connecting to the virtual universe…”

A deep, grand voice echoed in Du Gang’s consciousness.

After about three seconds immersed in the darkness, the next moment, his unique virtual universe code and information appeared.

“Please confirm your information!”

After he confirmed with his thoughts, he instantly appeared in a modern city.

On the streets were all sorts of pedestrians of varying heights and races, hustling and bustling.

Du Gang quickly looked down and found himself with a ‘body’. He experimented by touching it, the sensation was no different from his real body.

Next to him, a miniature Bala fluttered around like a little fairy.

Looking at the oddly-looking humans passing by, Du Gang asked in surprise,

“These people?”

Bala laughed, “They are all humans, scattered throughout the universe…”

“However, the region we are in now is the territory of White Dragon Mountain Universe Nation…”

“Though the virtual universe connects the entire universe, it’s also divided into different regions according to the universe nations…”

“Places like our Milky Way Galaxy don’t qualify for a separate region, hence we and the White Dragon Mountain Universe nation are in the same region…”

“Besides our Milky Way Galaxy, there are ten thousand other star systems at the same level, all within the White Dragon Mountain region!”

At this point, Du Gang saw in the distance islands floating in the sky.

“Those islands are individual regions. We are a primary universe nation hence we are located on an island at the bottom. This island, named White Dragon Mountain Island, can accommodate all the people from the White Dragon

Mountain territory…”

Du Gang was shocked, there are a trillion people in the Milky Way alone. This place was gathering over ten thousand equivalent star systems. According to the principle that the closer to the center, the more the population, resources, and planets, this island must have at least a total of twenty trillion people!

Bala laughed, “The Virtual Universe Company divides the universe into levels. It is said that the central position belongs to a continent at the center of the universe. Going outward from there, there are ten thousand continents formed by ten thousand advanced universe nations…”

“Our White Dragon Mountain Island is on the outskirts of the Pangu

Continent…”

Seemed like she saw what Du Gang was thinking, she chuckled and said, “Actually, there aren’t that many people here. As you saw with the Milky Way, the account opening fee alone requires a Source Crystal per year. Even for planet-level powerhouses, this is a considerable expense; how could they possibly share it with others?”

“Hence, most of the individuals in the virtual universe are planet-level powerhouses or above. But, don’t be surprised if you see people below planet level; those are definitely the younger generation of some major clans…”

Du Gang realized, that makes sense. However, looking at the throngs of people coming and going on White Dragon Mountain Island, there seemed to be hundreds of millions of people in the virtual universe just now.

This was just one island, White Dragon Mountain. If the entire universe were taken into account, there would be so many planet-level powerhouses!

Bala then began to explain by his side, “There are many things you can do in the virtual universe: learning, playing games, fighting, trading, meeting people, chatting with beautiful women, etc. Everything is possible here…”

“However, I believe the most important thing for you is that you can cultivate here, learn, and broaden your horizons!”

“Here, as long as you have money, you can purchase cultivation manuals, and with money, you can cultivate here…”

After a series of explanations, Du Gang finally had an understanding of the virtual universe.

It was essentially another universe, because here, all of your feelings are no different from reality.

Moreover, vou can do manv things that cannot be accomolished in realitv.

For example, if you want to cultivate a powerful mystical technique that requires extremely precious materials, these might be too extravagant to use in reality. You can simulate these materials here in the virtual universe and experiment with them.

Or, if you want to switch genders today, in reality, it would necessitate surgery, but here you only need to press a button to experience the entire spectrum of sensations of being a woman…

In addition to this, there are all sorts of trading info, ways to barter resources, and so on. There are too many possibilities to list.

Du Gang casually clicked on a shop selling secret techniques and was immediately stunned by the listed prices.

A random cultivation technique could cost up to ten million White Dragon Coins!

“Our universe belongs to White Dragon Mountain, and what you see here is mostly self-produced and sold by White Dragon. We generally use White Dragon Mountain’s currency for transactions…”

Du Gang frowned, “I’m from the Milky Way Galaxy, where am I supposed to get

White Dragon Mountain’s currency from?”

Barala laughed, “The Cosmic Bank! The Milky Way Galaxy has branches of the

Cosmic Bank, and they provide services to exchange for White Dragon

Mountain’s currency…”

Du Gang’s eyes lit up, “One Source Crystal in exchange for ten thousand White

Dragon Coins?”

“In your dreams,” she laughed. “These guys are running a business. In the Milky Way Galaxy, one Source Crystal can only be exchanged for one White

Dragon Coin.”

“That’s robbery!”

Du Gang was astonished, these four major forces really knew how to do business.

The Cosmic Bank, it’s simply a lucrative industry.

Aside from them, the Virtual Universe Company is the same.

One person, one Source Crystal per year; just imagine how many people are in the universe and how many Source Crystals have to be paid each year. It’s unbelievable!

Shaking his head, he reluctantly gave up on buying a cultivation technique.

Looking at the distant islands, Du Gang asked, “What if I want to go shopping on other islands, or go sightseeing, can I leave White Dragon Mountain?”

Barala laughed, “Yes, you can. However, the Virtual Universe Company determines your initial location based on your real-world location when you log in the Virtual Universe…”

“For example, since you logged in from the Milky Way Galaxy, you appear on White Dragon Mountain…”

“Therefore, if you want to go somewhere else, you have to pay an island departure fee and an island arrival fee, or a land arrival fee!”

“How much does it cost?” Du Gang asked curiously.

Barala laughed, “The price is set according to your initial location. For instance, since you’re currently on White Dragon Mountain, it costs ten thousand White Dragon Coins to leave…”

“And the arrival fee depends on the pricing of the island or land you wish to visit…’

“For example, if you want to go to Pangu Continent, you need to pay ten thousand Pangu Coins to go there!”

“So expensive?”

Barala nodded, “Yes, this might be to establish barriers and prevent people from running around randomly on the islands…”

So basically, forces of the same level could interact, but going to a higher-level place would be very difficult.

For example, if he wants to go to Qiankun Island from his current location on White Dragon Mountain, he will need ten thousand White Dragon coins and ten thousand Qiankun coins.

But the problem is, he’s from the White Dragon Universe. In the White Dragon Universe, whenever he wants to exchange currency at the Cosmic Bank, it’s according to the commodity prices of the White Dragon Universe.

That is, one Source Crystal can only be exchanged for one Qiankun Coin. To obtain ten thousand Qiankun Coins, he would need ten thousand Source Crystals.

“Forget it, let’s just stay on White Dragon Mountain!”

Du Gang then gave up on the idea of venturing off the island.

However, White Dragon Mountain offers plenty of places to visit, because it attracts people from the entire White Dragon Universe, making it extraordinarily lively.

Just as Barala was about to introduce more recreational activities, Du Gang stopped her, “Enough. Tell me about the places where I can cultivate?”

He didn’t need cultivation methods for the moment, his inherited memories are sufficient enough for that.

“For cultivation, there are various cultivation sites. For instance, there are cultivation sites for different universal Laws. Here, you can gain insights into the Laws under their simulated attacks. These are generally the most expensive…”

“Then there are the various imagery cultivation sites. The old master used to go there the most. Unfortunately, he spent a lot of money but ultimately failed to comprehend the imagery…”

“There’s also a place that’s suitable for enhancing your combat effectiveness and is good for comprehending imagery and Laws…”

Du Gang eagerly asked, “Where is it?”

Barala answered, “The Training Ground!”

“Here you can choose your opponent based on your needs. The strength and realm of the enemy can all be set by you. However, the price isn’t low…”

“Apart from the Training Ground, there’s another place that can improve combat effectiveness, but it can be somewhat harmful to people…”

Du Gang curiously asked, “Where?”

“The Killing Field!”

Barala explained, “You can also die in the Virtual Universe, but usually, in the cities that belong to the peaceful zone, fighting is not allowed because the bodies of those who enter are that of ordinary people…”

“However, the Killing Field is different. In there, you can scan and import your physical condition from the real world and engage in combat with others…”

“The final result of these battles is death!”

“Although dying in the Virtual Universe isn’t real death, it still inflicts some strain on one’s mental state…

Regarding the mentioned Killing Fields, Du Gang was quite intrigued.

“Are the fighters in the Killing Field randomly paired with people from the universe?”

Barala nodded, “Exactly, the Killing Field is divided into Initial-Level Killing

Field, Intermediate-Level Killing Field, Advanced-Level Killing Field, and

Top-Level Killing Field!”

“Each level corresponds respectively to Stellar Level, Universe Level, Sector

Lord Level, and World Lord Level!”

“Such high levels?”

Du Gang was somewhat surprised, “Do these domain lords and sector lords also come here to fight?”

“Of course, although there is not a single domain lord level power in our Milky Way Galaxy, it’s different in other cosmic nations, such powers are countless there…”

Du Gang nodded, “So, if I want to join the killing field, do I have to fight with stellar-level strong ones?”

“Exactly, and they match opponents based on strength, win-loss records and

so on, they always try to choose an opponent with similar strength to you in order to achieve the training effect!”

“That’s quite good!” Du Gang praised.

Soon, he arrived at the primary killing field of White Dragon Mountain Island.

These killing fields were sectioned off because of the differing entry fees.

Like the White Dragon Mountain Island, it typically only opens up a primary killing field. People within the White Dragon Mountain territory need to pay a hundred White Dragon Coins to gain entry.

The admission ticket for each match cost a hundred White Dragon Coins.

However, if you can win against your opponent, your hundred ticket fee can be waived. Not only that, but you also get fifty of the enemy’s White Dragon Coins.

He glanced at the number of participants in the Killing Field and found that the current number of people participating in the White Dragon Mountain’s primary killing field had reached a hundred million.

“So many?” Du Gang was somewhat surprised. You know, the primary killing field is a stellar-level killing field, usually only the stellar-level strong ones will enter.

Ba Lala laughed, “Actually, it’s normal. Just our Milky Way Galaxy alone has over a million stellar-level beings. In the entire White Dragon Mountain early cosmic nation combined, there are ten billion stellar-level beings, and only more to come. It’s completely normal for a hundred million people to be fighting in there!”

Du Gang was indeed eager to go in and fight with these stellar-level guys, but he currently has no White Dragon Coins and he’s too reluctant to exchange them with the source crystals.

Suddenly, he thought about his shifting issue, and asked: “Ba Lala, can my shifting situation be translated in the virtual universe?

“No, the light computer scans your body every time you log in. If you want to bring the ancient god body in, you must shift before entering the virtual universe… ” Ba Lala paused and said, “That’s how the old master did it before!”

Next, Du Gang left the killing field and began touring around White Dragon Mountain Island.

Suddenly, he noticed a crowd of people lining up behind a tall building and asked curiously, “What are these people doing?”

Having taken a look at the situation over there, Ba Lala laughed, “That is a cosmic-level force within the territory of the primary cosmic nation of White Dragon Mountain. They are currently recruiting…”

“The Arena?”

Du Gang understood, “So many people lining up, are they all trying to sign up?

Ba Lala laughed, “No, the line for sign-up is not here. Sign-up requires a fee so there definitely won’t be this many people…”

“This is a special channel for sign-up, recruiting individuals with special bloodlines or exceptional talents. As soon as they are chosen, they can join the arena for free!”

She quickly checked for a while and added, “I just looked over it. This arena is called White Orchid Arena, established by a cosmic level force, and its real location is within White Dragon Mountain Cosmic Nation…”

“The sign-up fee is not cheap indeed, a planet-level requires a hundred White Dragon Coins, and the stellar-level requires ten thousand sign-up fees. However, according to them, once you join the Arena, you can learn a technique in the Arena, for example, the planet-level can learn a Fourth Rank technique, while the stellar-level can learn a Rank Five technique…”

“They can choose to increase the cultivation technique, or choose the same level attack, defense or special class techniques!”

Du Gang had some understanding of the levels of techniques, generally, they are benchmarked according to the upper limit of the power they could exert and the upper limit it can be cultivated to.

Like his “Spear and Lance Nine Kills” is a typical Rank Five attack technique, which is a Stellar-level technique!

Normally, stellar-level is the stage of observer state, like cosmic level, then it will comprehend laws, and like domain lord level, will comprehend domains.

Last time, the person who assassinated Du Gang was definitely a guy with extraordinary talent. Only at the solar level, he already comprehended the domain. However, he screwed up while trying to take care of the Ancient God on the edge of the training grounds.

Whereas the “Light and Dark Secrets” Du Gang obtained, is a Seventh-Rank technique. Apparently, Du Gang didn’t know the value and overlooked it. The queue was moving quickly, and people were leaving with a sigh every now and then.

“What’s their selection criterion?”

Ba Lala checked for a while before answering: “In terms of bloodline level, those with a level three bloodline and above can join without test…”

“Bloodline Level?” Du Gang was hearing this term for the first time, “Does my ancient god physique count as a bloodline?”

Ba Lala nodded, “Yes!”

“The universe is vast and there are many races in the universe…” “The division of bloodline level is based on the standard of adulthood…

“For instance, Ancient God like you belongs to the God Level Bloodline. Once matured, it is Eternal Level. Of course, the energy required for maturation is quite high..

“A saint-level bloodline, on the other hand, is at the Sector Lord Level when matured. Each step forward requires less energy compared to a god-level bloodline…

“Then comes the Rank One bloodline, at Domain Lord Level when mature!”

“Rank Two bloodline, at Cosmic-level when mature!” “Rank Three bloodline, at Stellar Level when matured!”

“Next is the Rank Four bloodline, at Planet Level when matured!” “Rank Five bloodline is at Satellite Level when matured!” “Rank Six bloodline is at Comet-level when matured!” “Rank Seven bloodline is at Meteorite-level when matured!” “Rank Eight bloodline is at Meteorite Level when mature!”

“Rank Nine bloodline is at Purple Level when matured!”

Du Gang finally understood, “So I am a god-level bloodline? Are there other god-level bloodlines in the universe?”

“Yes, according to the old master, apart from the Ancient Gods, there are other divine bodies in the universe…

The Eternal Level, also known as the Immortal Level or God Spirit Level!

A god-level bloodline like the Ancient God becomes a god spirit upon maturation!
