Chapter 52, Preparation
If one could travel at 35 times the speed of light for three years in the dark universe, then the original universe would be a billion light-years away.
Ye Muxuan left the control room, entered the quiet room, connected to the virtual universe, and entered the Primordial District Manor.
Ye Muxuan returned to the Qianyan Starfield because he believed he was qualified to fulfill the Grand Elder's entrustment and thus qualified to provide his people with a better living environment so that they would no longer need to live in the secret realm.
Those born in the secret realm are born with incomplete souls. Without repairing this deficiency, they have no hope of immortality for the rest of their lives!
In the Primordial District, on the third floor of the manor, Ye Muxuan looked at the weapons appearing on the screen in front of him, thought for a moment, and then opened the "Custom" category.
While the Wind Shadow Blade is undoubtedly a top-tier fifth-tier Force weapon, capable of unleashing its full power even at the first-tier World Lord level, and wouldn't be obsolete even when used by a normal peak World Lord, it's no longer sufficient for Ye Muxuan's current understanding of the laws and the opponents he faces.
After dealing with matters concerning his clansmen, he will re-enter the extraterritorial battlefield, where his main target will be the immortals.
Using a fifth-tier Origin Force weapon to deal with an Immortal is somewhat of a stretch. The fact that he was able to kill an alien Immortal back then was due to a bit of luck, and also because that alien Immortal was only the weakest of the weak. He probably came to the extraterrestrial battlefield for training right after breaking through, and just happened to run into Mu Xuan, who had the combat power of an Immortal. He used the 100 million military merits of a Military Lord Immortal to establish the reputation of his "Wind Blade".
Realm Lords can still use standard weapons, but at the Immortal level, they usually collect materials themselves and entrust a weapon-making master to make them, or, like Ye Muxuan, they have a remarkable status and can directly use points to customize them within the Virtual Universe Company.
Each person's height, arm length, hand size, finger length, wrist thickness, knife-holding habits, drawing habits, and even usage habits will impose some subtle and special requirements on weapons. This is part of the reason why standard weapons are difficult to unleash their full potential.
Having spent so many years on the extraterrestrial battlefield, and with his exploration and adjustments in the virtual universe, Ye Muxuan naturally knew his own habits. So he listed his requirements one by one, transmitted them, and the matter of customizing the battle sword was thus resolved.
Even with his status as a member of the Primordial Secret Realm and being recognized as a potential candidate to reliably enter the Primordial Secret Realm in two hundred years, this battle blade still cost him 300 million Chaos Units!
And this thing isn't on sale!
After all, it's a custom-made product!
Fortunately, he now has over a billion points, which he can directly use to exchange for items based on his status in the Primordial Secret Realm. Otherwise, with only 400,000 Chaos Units, he might have had to provide or sell the materials he collected, such as "Stardust Sand," "Wind Jade Gold," "Purple Spirit Jade," or even Locke Divine Water!
However, a battle sword worth 300 million Hunyuan units is enough for battles between Marquises, and even those newly appointed Kings who are a little short of money use weapons of this level.
After thinking about it, Ye Muxuan asked the staff inside the virtual universe and learned that if the staff inside the virtual universe were to fully tap the potential of his F3-class black-patterned iron mother bird-shaped spaceship, it would cost about 27 Hunyuan!
The staff also explained directly that the Black-Veined Iron Mother is, after all, an F3-grade metal, which is not the best among F-grade metals. The maximum potential of this spaceship is only 50 times the speed of light, and it will be difficult to upgrade after it is perfected, even if it is integrated with an immortal-grade auxiliary metal life form.
After all, the level of innate materials is what it is, and there is a limit to it.
Ye Muxuan inquired about the cost of a spaceship entirely constructed from Earth Soul Rock Mother, as he had been extremely envious of the Demon Blade King's spaceship that had taken them to the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters. He learned that the Virtual Universe Company possessed several such spaceships, similar to standard models, costing fifty million Chaos Yuan. Of course, custom-made spaceships made from this material would incur an additional ten million in customization fees.
After thinking it over, Ye Muxuan decided to upgrade and modify the Black-Patterned Iron Mother's spaceship. It only cost 27 Chaos Units, but as a core member, he could afford it by paying with points.
As for the spaceship built by the Earth Soul Rock Mother, let's wait until I become immortal. The cost of 60 million points is still a bit too much. It's not necessary now, so I'll wait until I have more money later.
The agreement was made to deliver the goods four years later on Qiankong Star, one of the administrative stars of the Qianyan Star Region. Ye Muxuan glanced at his remaining points and began to think about what treasures could enhance his strength and what he could exchange for them now.
Aside from the 327 million spent on the spaceship and battle sword, the remaining billion-plus points on the account, including the free points allocated for purchasing secret techniques, are currently unusable. These points are just a string of cold numbers if left unused; their proper use is to increase one's strength.
But now he has a spaceship, a battle sword, two types of World Lord-level auxiliary plant life forms, and even Soul Radiance and Windwalker, so...
What we lack now are detectors and armor, which are of paramount importance and can save our lives.
Oh, and there's also the Vulcan Source Crystal. When things really get critical, this is something that keeps everyone calm. Even if it's not used in the end, it can be sold to the Virtual Universe Company.
After careful examination and searching, Ye Muxuan purchased a "Azure Conch Armor" for 30 million. This type of armor is used by most high-level Marquis or even peak Marquis-level Immortals. As for the armor used by King-level Immortals, Ye Muxuan would only look at it; those cost hundreds of billions or even trillions, and Ye Muxuan felt he wasn't at that level yet!
As for the detectors, he reaped quite a few rewards on the extraterritorial battlefield. In addition to selling them to the military's internal systems, he also acquired two detectors, one large and one small, which he had used for tens of thousands of years. These were spoils of war obtained from a mechanical race realm lord. In the human race, only those who had reached the rank of Marquis and Immortal would be able to afford them.
After integrating all their resources, they discovered that the best large detector was the one used by the Mechanical Race, with a coverage radius of 100 million kilometers, and was worth more than 3 million Chaos Units in their treasure vault. The small detector was one of the spoils of war of the Sirius Race Realm Lord, with a coverage radius of 20 kilometers, and was worth more than 1 million Chaos Units.
Therefore, there is no need to invest resources in the detector for the time being; it can be replaced once we have gained some benefits in the extraterritorial battlefield.
The remaining one billion points can be redeemed for the seventh volume of "Miscellaneous Essays on Qingying" at a 30% discount after entering the Primal Secret Realm. This means that seven hundred million points need to be reserved, and about three hundred million points can be used now.
