Immortality begins by swallowing the stars

Chapter 78 Tower of Babel and the core layer of Virtual Universe Company

"This is...Thunder Island?"

With a glance, Lu Jing knew that he had returned to the floating Thunder Island where elite geniuses lived in the virtual universe.

Uphis stood opposite him.

This powerful Realm Master restrained all his aura and looked gentle and elegant.

However, Lu Jing knew that this powerful Realm Master could be called the uncrowned king of the Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory. As one of the three leaders of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire Branch of the Ministry of Military Affairs, even powerful forces such as the Black Dragon Mountain Holy Land, Ice Sea God Kingdom, and Three Ax Mountains All the immortal gods will give it three points.

However, the Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory Branch of the Ministry of Military Affairs generally does not interfere in the affairs of the Star Territory, unless there is a large-scale massacre of lives and other things that violate the laws of the universe.

The Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Ministry of Martial Arts has access to the Kingdom of God, and it can bring in countless world lords and even immortal gods from the Qianwu headquarters at any time.

This is also the reason why the Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory Branch can intimidate the entire Star Territory with only three powerful realm masters.

"Yes, if you can understand a trace of the original law, you can be regarded as the most outstanding genius in our Black Dragon Mountain Empire branch in thousands of years, no, the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire." Uphis smiled gently.

Although Uphis basically believed that Lu Jing had obtained some kind of precious inheritance or treasure from the master of Fanli Realm that could help him understand the law of the origin of wind, he could only realize the law when he was at the first level of the domain.

But who among the geniuses in the universe doesn’t have some opportunities?
Even back then, he had some kind of luck that made him what he is today.

Although treasures that can assist in understanding the original law of wind are precious, Uphis has long been recognized by the original law, and is only one step away from immortality, so naturally he has no intention of coveting it.

This kind of treasure that assists in understanding the original law is basically only useful for low-level geniuses. After all, the master of Fanli Realm himself has not been recognized by the original law.

Uphis had even been to the original universe, so how could he care about this kind of encounter.

"Haha, a star-level genius who can comprehend a hint of the original law can rank among the top [-] star-level geniuses in the entire Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

"As long as you train a little, when the genius battle starts in a few decades, if you participate, you will have no problem ranking in the top one thousand in the universe country." Uphis said with a smile.

The significance of the existence of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire Branch of the Ministry of Military Affairs is not only to maintain the overall peace of the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region and prevent large-scale wars, but also to select good seedlings and send them to the Ministry of Military Affairs Ganwu Headquarters.

By transporting a genius like Lu Jing who understands the original law, even Uphis can get a lot of credit and rewards.

Lu Jing's heart suddenly moved: "Can the elites within the military department also participate in the genius battle?"

"Of course." Uphis said: "If you participate in the Genius Battle in a few decades, rank among the top [-] in the Universe Kingdom, and gain the qualification to participate in the final battle, you will also be considered a member of our Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory and Black Dragon Mountain Empire Branch. Glory.

"If you can go one step further in the past few decades, cross the threshold of the original law, and even rank among the top [-] in the Universe Country, the best performance in the genius battle in the history of the Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory is only ranked fifth in the Universe Country About a hundred people.”

Uphis said sternly: "But the genius war will only happen decades later. I have adjusted your authority to a special elite, and reported your matter to the Qianwu headquarters. The headquarters will immediately send a spaceship to pick you up." You, before that I can take you to 'Amethyst Island'."

……

There was a flash of brilliant light.

The figures of Upheus and Lu Jing appeared on a magnificent purple continent.

"This 'Amethyst Island' is the office of Virtual Universe Company's branch in Ganwu Universe. The headquarters of the Ministry of Armed Forces, the Ministry of Commerce, and the Military Headquarters are all here!"

Even though Lu Jing had already known about Amethyst Island from the original novel, he was still a little shocked when he saw it now.

This turned out to be an island made entirely of dreamy purple crystals. It was so vast that you couldn't see the end at a glance, and it was almost as big as the Black Dragon Mountain Island.

In the distance, there is almost no end to the rolling palace made of amethyst.

The amethyst palace in the center, which is tens of thousands of kilometers high, is extremely dazzling.

From time to time, brilliant light flashes, and countless people disappear or appear on thousands of rocks around the land scene.

"The tallest purple palace in the center is the office of the three ministers of the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Commerce, and the Ministry of Military Affairs, as well as hundreds of immortal gods. It should not be approached easily." Uphis said.

"The Military Headquarters is to the west of Amethyst Island, let's fly there."

Upheus and Lu Jing flew hundreds of thousands of kilometers before finally arriving in front of a huge palace on the west side of the island.

"Uphis, it's been a long time since you came to Amethyst Island."

A handsome man with long golden hair and two pairs of broad wings trailing behind him came forward.

"Haha, Sago, in a hundred years, when I'm ready, how about we go to the 'Star Territory Secret Realm' again?"

Uphis said hello and said through force transmission: "His name is Sago, the leader of the Qiyu tribe, the super elite general manager of the Ministry of Armed Forces, a descendant of the Minister of Arms Jin Yuhou, and also my friend." He has long golden hair. Sago's eyes fell on Lu Jing: "I didn't expect that your Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory Branch would have a genius. Register with me first, and then go to the Babel Tower to see where you can get. .”

Tower of Babel?
Lu Jing suppressed the doubts in his heart and followed Upheus and Sago into the palace.

A huge screen that took up an entire wall caught his attention.

Names, points and rankings scrolled on the screen.

Seeing Lu Jing's confusion, Uphis looked at the huge screen with some nostalgia and sighed: "This is the Babel ranking."

Sago laughed and said: "The special elites at the Military Headquarters are recommended from the more than 1 star field branches of Qianwu Universe Country. The weakest ones all have six realms, but even if they are all special elites, there are differences in strength and weakness. , the strength of the domain, the strength of the laws, and the strength of the combat power. The role of the Babel Tower is to test the cultivation results and strength of the super elites."

Uphis explained: "There are two Babel Towers set up here at the Amethyst Island Military Headquarters, one is the cosmic-level Babel Tower, and the other is the stellar-level Babel Tower. The Babel Tower has nine floors in total, so it is also called the nine-story Babel Tower.

"Each floor has countless monsters, ferocious beasts, and alien geniuses simulated by the virtual universe system. The more floors you pass and the more ferocious beasts, monsters, and alien geniuses you kill, the higher your points will be and your ranking will be. The closer he gets.

"I was once a special elite of the Ministry of Military Affairs. I passed through the Babel Tower and reached the seventh floor, ranking among the top ten...

"If you can completely break through the nine-story Babel Tower, it means you can enter the core level of the head office!"

Sago said: "The Tower of Babel, the Tower of Babel, is named 'Babel' because as long as you pass through the nine-story Tower of Babel, you can reach the sky in one step, enter the core level of the head office, and obtain the most resources of the human race. Compete with the top talents of Universe 1008.

"However, the Qianwu Universe Kingdom branch has not produced a genius who can break through the Tower of Babel for who knows how many years. The most recent one should be more than 20 years ago."

Seeing Lu Jing's strange look, Sago thought it was because Lu Jing didn't quite understand the meaning of the core level of the head office, so he said solemnly: "You should know that the battle between the peak human beings and the peak geniuses in the universe is the 1008th level of human territory. A grand event for star-level or cosmic-level geniuses in the Universe Country.

“If our Virtual Universe Company holds a genius battle or a strong battle, then only the top one thousand geniuses in the final battle can enter the core level of the head office.

"Only 1008 geniuses from 1000 cosmic countries can enter the core level. On average, each cosmic country may not have one genius who can enter the core level.

"But the interval between genius battles is too long - at least for the stellar level, it is indeed a long time. Therefore, in addition to regular selection competitions such as genius battles and strong battles, by joining the military department, commercial department or military department of our virtual universe company, There are also opportunities to be promoted step by step to the core level of the head office.

“But the standards for entering the core level through layer-by-layer selection will only be more stringent than the talent battle, and few people can meet this standard.

"Hey, it's too far away to tell you this..."

Of course, Sago didn't think Lu Jing could break through the ninth floor of the Babel Tower. Let alone just comprehend a hint of the original law, even if he crossed the threshold of the original law, he would still be far away from breaking through the ninth floor. It would take an average of 10 to 20 years. Come up with a genius who can break through the Tower of Babel.

In contrast, it is much easier to join the commercial department and then expand the assets, step by step into the core level of the head office.

It's just that the elites of the Ministry of Commerce will not enjoy the resources of warriors when they enter the core level, but they will only have the blessing of status.

The surprise in Lu Jing's eyes faded, and he muttered to himself: "This nine-story Tower of Babel sounds a bit like the knockout round of the Genius Battle Finals. Can you directly enter the core level of Virtual Universe Company if you pass the ninth floor..."

"Let's go and have a try." Uphis also looked at Lu Jing expectantly.

Lu Jing walked to the teleportation point with some excitement, and then disappeared under the brilliant light.

Then I saw Lu Jing's name rising rapidly from tens of thousands on the big screen.

In no time, he entered the first [-].

The first thousand...

After a long time, it finally stayed at 587.

"587th? Haha, not bad." Uphis nodded with satisfaction, not surprised by this ranking.

Here are the super geniuses recommended by the Ministry of Military Affairs from more than 1 branches in the star field.

There are quite a few people who have reached the eighth or ninth level in their domain and have comprehended a hint of the original law. There are even geniuses who have crossed the threshold of the original law.

Sago also nodded and said: "If we can cross the threshold of the Origin Law before the next genius battle, we should be able to achieve a good ranking, win glory for your Black Dragon Mountain Star Territory, and also improve the performance of our military elites in the next genius battle.

"Although the number of geniuses is not comparable to that of the Ganwu Royal Family and the Ganwu Secret Realm, if our military elites can account for more of the top one thousand geniuses, the Minister will be a little happy."

As soon as the light flashed.

Lu Jing appeared in the palace again, feeling a little scared.

"The nine-story Babel Tower is really difficult to break into. I only made it to the sixth floor... It's a pity that if the virtual universe could simulate my 'wind attribute body', the rankings could be improved a lot..." Lu Jing looked at the screen. The ranking above is somewhat disappointing.
