Summoning Players into My Game Chapter 784 - 393: The Exalted and the Advanced Cultivation Tower (Part 2)
Previously on Summoning Players into My Game...
Everything unfolded precisely as Huang Yi had envisioned. Upon entering the Hall Master’s office, both Chi Mo and Sheng Mu, after briefly sensing the marvels within the Basic Meditation Room, couldn't help but present an invitation.
"What is this from you two?"
Lin Qi, gazing at the invitation letters proffered by Chi Mo and Sheng Mu – both formidable powers at the Divine Fusion High Tier – expressed his surprise.
He was already quite astonished by the arrival of these two immensely powerful cultivators, but he hadn't anticipated they would also extend invitations simultaneously.
These two documents resembled gift lists more than formal invitations. They not only invited the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall to join their respective teams in occupying a premier planet but also proposed a joint endeavor to secure a Mysterious Land at the universe's core, amidst the prime life planets.
Participation in these endeavors promised direct rewards of Alliance Coins. Chi Mo offered 1.2 trillion Alliance Coins, while Sheng Mu proposed 1.5 trillion. Furthermore, even after joining such a team, members were not compelled to act in unison, with their actions left entirely to individual discretion, akin to joining a minor alliance exclusively composed of Divine Fusion High Tier experts.
"Hall Master Lin, it's quite natural you wouldn't be aware, having only recently entered this circle," Sheng Mu explained with a benevolent smile. "At our level, conventional resources and cultivation environments have lost their significance. To achieve further breakthroughs, only a handful of locations across the entire universe offer the necessary conditions. Given the universe's immensity, establishing oneself in these places through individual might alone is impossible; hence, the necessity of uniting to stand a chance of survival in such regions."
"Regarding the invitations extended by Chi Mo and myself, Hall Master Lin, you are free to accept one, both, or neither. After all, our teams are targeting different locations, pursuing distinct objectives. For instance, I have joined four such teams myself. As long as there are no conflicting interests between them, you can affiliate with as many as you wish. It entirely depends on your own aspirations and goals, and whether they resonate with the team's objectives."
"So, it's about finding like-minded individuals to improve together?" Lin Qi, absorbing this explanation, suddenly grasped the reason behind their simultaneous, amicable invitations, observing their remarkable composure towards each other.
"Precisely," Chi Mo concurred with a smile. "Attaining the esteemed status of a Demigod is an exceedingly arduous path, and each of us lacks different elements, leading to varied pursuits. Take our team of seven, for example. Our objective is to acquire the unique resources found on premier planets. Sheng Mu’s team, on the other hand, is likely concentrating on the cultivation environment, aiming to establish a foothold on the Initial planets to secure a superior setting for their cultivation. If the goals of both our teams align with your aspirations, you are welcome to join both. Moreover, it won't be long before numerous other teams extend similar invitations to you."
"If I were to join, wouldn't these teams face apprehension regarding retaliation from the Imperial Country?" Lin Qi inquired, a flicker of curiosity in his eyes.
Myriad Dragon Star, being a prime resource planet rich in cosmic treasures, was unlikely to be easily relinquished by the Imperial Country, even if Lin Qi and his associates managed to claim a small portion. Furthermore, once Lin Qi departed from Blue Star for other ventures, the Imperial Country might dispatch individuals to apprehend him, potentially implicating his companions.
"Retaliation from the Imperial Country?" Chi Mo let out a chuckle. "Fear not, Hall Master Lin. While the Imperial Country is indeed formidable, our Starry Sky Commerce ranks among the top ten peak forces in the universe. Our investigations have confirmed that none of your associates have yet reached the Divine Fusion Realm. Although the Imperial Country harbors displeasure and has even threatened to dispatch three Five-Star God Generals to Myriad Dragon Star, our Violet Realm Venerable has unequivocally stated that if the Imperial Country cannot suffer a loss in this matter, he would personally escort all their forces from Myriad Dragon Star."
"The Venerable has made such a declaration?" Lin Qi's surprise was evident upon hearing this.
Venerables stood as beings second only to Demigods throughout the cosmos. Despite their Martial Arts cultivation being at the extreme peak of the Divine Fusion High Tier, their actual Strength far surpassed that of any cultivator within the Divine Fusion Realm.
The inability to contend with them stemmed from the fact that Venerables had typically mastered at least ten Demigod Secret Ultimate Techniques, effectively placing them halfway towards the foundational threshold of comprehending Laws.
Although they cannot sculpt their forms using Laws like Demigods or spontaneously manifest a Law World to command global might in battle, they possess the ability to establish a Law Domain. This domain magnifies their Strength tenfold, or even several dozen times over—a power that even those in the Divine Fusion Realm would hesitate to provoke. Demigods generally remain detached, seldom intervening in worldly affairs. Consequently, within the universe’s major factions, it is these Venerables who oversee operations. Formidable species such as the Evil Demon Race, or any group aiming for significant universal influence, achieve their status precisely because a Venerable typically resides among them. "Indeed, the Violet Realm Venerable possesses quite a volatile temperament," Chi Mo remarked with a chuckle. "Furthermore, with fourteen of his Secret Ultimate Techniques attaining the Realm of Perfection, the Violet Realm Venerable is considered one of the mightiest even by Venerable standards. The Imperial Country has very few individuals capable of opposing him, and such paragons would find little reason to challenge the Violet Realm Venerable solely over Myriad Dragon Star. Therefore, rest assured, Hall Master Lin, this issue has reached its conclusion." "Fourteen Demigod Secret Ultimate Techniques achieving the Realm of Perfection, you say?" Lin Qi couldn't help but voice his profound surprise. Once one ascends to the extreme of the Divine Fusion High Tier, the disparity in strength is determined not solely by physical prowess, but crucially, by the sheer number of Demigod Secret Ultimate Techniques that have been perfected.
