Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

“More than 4 trillion Mixed Yuan Units in spoils… This time, I’ve really made a fortune.”

Faced with such a massive amount of wealth, Lin Ye couldn’t help but exclaim.

He even found it hard to believe such an outcome.

You know, the wealth of a typical King-level Undying is only between 1 billion and 10 billion Mixed Yuan Units.

Even for King-level Limit, apart from those special cases with treasures, others don't have much money on hand.

But he, on the other hand, earned so many Mixed Yuan Units in spoils at once.

How could this not make him overjoyed?

“Little Master, you've done more than just make a fortune!!”

Chan'er looked at Lin Ye, not stingy with her words of praise: “This is simply becoming a landlord.”

“You can now directly be called the wealthiest World Master in the entire Extraterritorial Battlefield, absolutely without a doubt!”

“Yeah. I think so too.”

Lin Ye nodded, very much agreeing with this statement.

“Chan'er, all those useless treasures and stuff, can all be disposed of.”

Speaking halfway, Lin Ye's tone slightly changed, appearing somewhat melancholic.

“But… with so many spoils, how should I handle them!?”

“Little Master, that's just you worrying about nothing. The universe and starry sky are so vast, with so many races, do you think they can't handle your tens of trillions of Mixed Yuan Units worth of treasures!?”

Chan'er said with a smile.

“Whether it's the Human Race or the Hong Alliance, they can easily take all your things.”

“Hong Alliance… but I'm not a member of the Hong Alliance yet!?”

Lin Ye lay on the sofa, his brows slightly furrowed: “I heard that to join the Hong Alliance, you need at least the strength of a King-level Undying, but why hasn't anyone come to invite me yet!?”

He was very puzzled. As early as when he killed the Dark Devourer Clan's King-level Kale and the Titan Clan's King-level Titan Meng in the Su Feng Star Region, Lin Ye had already very arrogantly declared.

That he already possessed the strength of a King-level Undying!

“No problem, just tell City Lord Hun Dun, and you're guaranteed to have someone from the Hong Alliance come to receive you the next day.”

“Is this news reliable!?” Lin Ye asked doubtfully.

“Absolutely true!!” Chan'er nodded heavily.

“Okay, if that's the case, then I'll go seek an audience with my teacher!”

Lin Ye said somewhat excitedly.

Becoming a member of the Hong Alliance would bring many conveniences in the future.

…

“Good disciple, are you sure you want to join the Hong Alliance!?”

In the divine hall, City Lord Hun Dun, clad in golden armor, looked at Lin Ye, with gray air currents swirling around his body, seemingly ethereal.

His deep voice echoed throughout the hall.

“I'm sure I want to join the Hong Alliance, and I already possess the combat power of a King-level Undying, my battle record is verifiable.”

Lin Ye said righteously, displaying a confidence and arrogance stemming from his powerful strength.

“There's no need to check the battle record, the military merit system has already provided a lot of feedback. Now, in the entire Second Battlefield, the number of alien race King-level Undyings who died at your hands is already close to twenty, right!?”

City Lord Hun Dun looked at Lin Ye with a smile, and asked.

“Reporting to Master, to be precise, I killed twenty-seven alien race King-levels, and also captured nearly a hundred alien race King-levels, thus obtaining a massive amount of spoils awaiting disposal, so I thought of joining the Hong Alliance.”

Facing his second teacher, Lin Ye didn't hold back anything, and reported his battle achievements in the Second Battlefield in full.

City Lord Hun Dun: (⊙o⊙)！？？？

“You killed more than twenty King-level Undyings in the Second Battlefield, and also captured nearly a hundred alien race King-levels??” Seeming somewhat uncertain, City Lord Hun Dun confirmed it again.

This battle record was truly terrifying. Even his former disciple, Ke Di, was only comparable to a Marquis-level peak Undying when he was a World Master.

But now, Lin Ye was also a peak World Master, indeed capable of easily exploding and killing King-level Undyings.

Compared in this way, the difference was obvious!

“Just lucky, these alien race King-levels were all blind and came to attack me, so I wiped them all out in one fell swoop.”

Although Lin Ye said this very casually, City Lord Hun Dun didn't think this process was easy.

The siege of hundreds of King-level Undyings, even an invincible King-level existence would fall into serious injury, or even death, if they weren't careful.

Moreover, Lin Ye was only a peak World Master, yet he produced such a battle result.

“Don't worry, I'll send a message to the people under the Hong Alliance, and someone will come to pick you up and join soon.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Lin Ye glanced at Hun Dun City Lord with some surprise. As one of the Hong Alliance's several Palace Masters, this power was simply something he yearned for.

“Now that you have such strength, I have a few Divine General Inheritance Crystals in my hand. As for those lower-level Divine Envoy inheritances, they no longer meet your current requirements.”

As Lin Ye's teacher, City Lord Hun Dun had a very deep understanding of his disciple.

Knowing that he was progressing so quickly, he wanted to give him better things.

“Master, I heard from Teacher Fen Chen about the 'Divine General Inheritance'. Once you accept the complete inheritance, it's roughly equivalent to the Universe Venerable Limit, which is the level of the Star Prison Demon Lord and the Sky Devour Palace Lord… Even when facing Universe Lords, you can protect yourself.”

City Lord Hun Dun said: “I currently have three Divine General Inheritance Crystals in my hand, namely the Uriel Divine General, the Flying Radiance Divine General, and the Demon Sound Divine General. The characteristics of the three are as follows…”

“……”

After listening to his teacher City Lord Hun Dun's words, Lin Ye lowered his head, a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a while, he raised his head to look at City Lord Hun Dun, gently shaking his head: “Thank you for your kindness, Master. I am currently in the initial stage of creating secret techniques and unique skills. I want to go further and more steadily on my own path.”

“As for the Divine General Inheritance… although it's very good, it's not the path I want to choose.”

Lin Ye's words were sonorous and forceful, spoken with incomparable firmness, full of confidence.

These words of refusal truly gave City Lord Hun Dun a new perspective on Lin Ye.

This kid has talent, strength, and decisiveness.

And even more ambition!!

“Are you sure you don't regret it? You have to know that basically every invincible King-level has accepted the Divine General Inheritance.”

City Lord Hun Dun wanted to tempt him one last time.

Lin Ye still firmly shook his head slowly, rejecting this good intention: “Thank you, Master, I really don't want the Divine General Inheritance.”

The Divine General Inheritance, at best, is only Universe Overlord-level combat power.

And the 【Primordial Chaos Secret Canon】 that Lin Ye cultivates, as long as he is willing to spend time studying and cultivating it, his future achievements are unimaginable even to himself.

Faced with a sesame seed and a gold mountain, he naturally knows how to choose what is best.

“Good!”

“I respect your choice, but if you ever change your mind, feel free to come to me. As long as you don't become an Undying God, I can keep these three Divine General Inheritance Crystals for you.”

“Thank you, Master, but there's no need. As long as you encounter suitable outstanding disciples, these Divine General Inheritance Crystals are not exclusively mine.”

Lin Ye said with a smile, without the slightest bit of frustration on his face because of the inheritance.

This appearance made City Lord Hun Dun extremely gratified.

His disciple should be like this!!

“Alright, I can't persuade you, kid. I'll go prepare for you to join the 'Hong Alliance' first, you prepare well.”

“Okay! Thank you, Master.” Lin Ye respectfully waved his hand.

Immediately, a gray and heavy stream of Primordial Chaos air currents swept away the golden-armored strong man, directly disappearing from before Lin Ye's eyes.

“I should go back and wait for news too.”

…

Just three hours after Lin Ye returned to the Rain Phase Mountain Original Region of the Virtual Universe.

A messenger team from afar, led by Marquis Tian Huo, Carlos, entered the No. 112 Manor.

“Your Highness, the receiving team from the Hong Alliance has arrived.”

Marquis Tian Huo directly transmitted a message to Lin Ye, informing him of this event.

“Yeah, I know.” The latter nodded lightly, having already learned of all this in advance.

Then, he and Carlos came to the front gate of the manor together.

Entering their eyes was a group of strangely-looking, mostly alien race Undying Gods, a total of eighteen powerhouses.

An invisible oppressive force of consciousness permeated out, causing even the Marquis-level Carlos to be slightly dazed.

Although there was only one word difference between King-level and Marquis-level, the difference in strength was incomparably huge.

Lin Ye's gaze slowly swept over these King-level Undyings present, his eyes flashing with a trace of brilliance.

Needless to say, these were all arranged by City Lord Hun Dun to receive him into the Hong Alliance.

Their efficiency was really fast!

“Everyone, hello!”

Lin Ye took the initiative to greet them with a smile.

“Your Highness Lin Ye, hello!!” A leading human female powerhouse wearing a purple silk dress, with waist-length purple hair, and possessing a devilish figure, greeted him with a sweet smile: “We are a special envoy team from the Hong Alliance, and now formally invite Your Highness to join us.”

“Kidney… What!? Join the Hong Alliance!?”

Marquis Tian Huo Carlos on the side was stunned upon hearing this.

You must know that those who are not King-level Undyings are not qualified to enter the Hong Alliance.

In other words, even he, Carlos, a Marquis-level Undying, has no hope of entering the Hong Alliance.

But now… Lin Ye, who is only a peak World Master, has received an olive branch from the Hong Alliance.

This made it somewhat difficult for Carlos to accept.

However, his mentality quickly calmed down completely.

What kind of person was his Highness? The personal disciple of Venerable Fen Chen and City Lord Hun Dun, the creator of the Tong Tian Bridge history, plus the crazy slaughter on the Extraterritorial Battlefield… had already made Lin Ye famous.

Not only was the Human Race territory rich with his name, but even many alien races had heard of his name as the 'Thousand Star World Master'.

Thus, it was enough to see how great Lin Ye's reputation was!

“Good! Everyone, please enter my manor, let's sit down and talk about this matter slowly.” Lin Ye asked with a smile.

“Of course, we won't refuse Your Highness's kind invitation.”

“Old Ka, prepare some reception.”

Lin Ye instructed Carlos.

“No problem, leave it to me.”

Soon, Lin Ye led this envoy team that had come from afar from the Hong Alliance, through the manor courtyard, and finally arrived in the living room.

Here, a sumptuous banquet had already been prepared in advance.

All of them were some expensive and delicious natural treasures.

“Everyone, please sit down, make yourselves at home.” Lin Ye said with a smile.

“Yeah.”

These Hong Alliance members also took their seats one by one, and at the same time, all looked at Lin Ye, their eyes full of curiosity and interest.

This young human in front of them was only a peak World Master, yet he was already a disciple of Venerable Fen Chen and City Lord Hun Dun.

The depth of his background… even a few of their King-level Undyings couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

It was really too strong!

But compared to Lin Ye's invincible background.

His illustrious battle achievements on the Extraterritorial Battlefield were truly shocking!

“I don't know everyone yet, may I ask what your names are!?”

Lin Ye sat in the main seat and asked.

“Human, Li Xin Wang.” A female King-level in a purple thin dress, with a enchanting figure, was the first to speak, her every frown and smile able to stir a man's heart.

“Really a goblin, it would be best to change her name to 'Goblin Queen'.”

Lin Ye withdrew his gaze from the two half-covered peaks, and cursed silently in his heart.

“Steel Qiang Race, Meng Wang!!”

“Na Tie Race, Xing Tian Wang!”

“Wu Bing Race, Lu Wang!!”

“……”

In this way, the eighteen envoys each introduced their origins and titles.

Among them, there were only two human King-levels.

“Sure enough, everyone is a King-level powerhouse!” Lin Ye said with a smile, “As expected of the Hong Alliance with its strong strength, this strength is too strong!”

“Where, where… King-level powerhouses are just a threshold for entering the Hong Alliance, a watershed. We are just lucky enough to be able to enter the Hong Alliance, not worthy of praise.”

Li Xin Wang's smile was constant, as if she could charm people's souls, making people unable to stop.

Fortunately, Lin Ye was very strong in will and mental cultivation, so he could easily resist.

“I heard that Your Highness Lin Ye is on the Extraterritorial Battlefield, but has killed many King-level Undyings!?”

Seeming uncertain, an alien race King-level tentatively asked.

“King-level Undyings, I have indeed killed quite a few, for example, the Yao Race's 'Hei Cang Wang', the Zerg Race's 'Wan Nu Wang', the Mechanical Race's 'Las Vegas Wang'…”

Lin Ye casually spoke of his battle achievements.

These few King-levels were all killed by the Thousand Shadow Clone, which cost him a lot of effort at the time.

“……”

However, just these few names that were spoken made the faces of a group of Hong Alliance envoys who had come from afar uncertain.

The strongest King-level among them was only high-level.

And these few that Lin Ye had just mentioned all had the strength of the King-level peak.

It was a peak-level King-level like this, but it was still solved by Lin Ye.

Moreover, the latter also showed such a nonchalant appearance, enough to judge that his strength was probably beyond these people's imagination.

As for whether Lin Ye's battle achievements were true or false… they didn't guess, because these people who could come here to receive him had all heard City Lord Hun Dun's orders.

With such a pivotal figure speaking, they naturally wouldn't have the slightest doubt.

“Your Highness, our Hong Alliance is a very inclusive alliance, which includes many, many races in the universe. Although it won't force you to join, you must not betray after joining… I believe His Highness the Palace Master has already told you this.”

Li Xin Wang spoke slowly, telling all the relevant information.

“I happen to know about this matter. In any case, I am wholeheartedly joining the Hong Alliance, and I have no intention of betraying it, nor can I betray it.”

Facing the several recruiters who had come from afar, Lin Ye spoke his mind.
