Chapter 178, Xunfeng Tower
However, compared to a domain treasure, he wanted a soul treasure more, but even the most common soul treasure required 36 treasure points, which he currently lacked. Fortunately, Ye Muxuan hadn't pressed him to return the treasure, so he wondered if he could increase his gains and earn another soul treasure. Or perhaps he could wait until after the Primordial Star event to return the treasure to Ye Muxuan and see if he could exchange it for a high-grade soul treasure then?
Emperor Sea Venerable's strength is comparable to Guiyi's, but unfortunately, he has no clones, only a main body. Therefore, if he wants to go to the Primordial Star, he must leave this place. In any case, his term of office here has long expired, so it is normal for him to leave now. Ye Muxuan's strength is even stronger than his, belonging to the top universe overlords, which is enough for him to guard the Purgatory Abyss.
"Alright, thank you for your hard work over the years." Ye Muxuan nodded, glancing at the hundreds of immortal gods and thousands of realm lords behind him. Among them were thirteen kings, hundreds of marquises, and the remaining hundreds of military lords who were immortals.
"Some of these immortal gods came with me, and now that I'm leaving, they'll have to come with me. Others are immortal gods and realm lords stationed here by the Virtual Universe Company. You'll be in charge here, so they're in your care," said Venerable Di Hai, looking at Ye Muxuan. "If you don't have enough manpower, you can ask the Virtual Universe Company for more. Anyway, your current status is sufficient."
He saw Longyu Wang following behind Ye Muxuan, but she was all alone.
Everyone says that the Shadow Blade Venerable has extremely high standards when choosing followers. It's only because Longyu King joined him early that the Shadow Blade Venerable might not even be interested in a mere high-ranking king now.
But no matter what other powerful figures think, the fact is that even now, more than 100,000 years later, Longyu King is still the only follower that Shadow Blade Venerable currently acknowledges!
In the Hong Alliance today, even though Longyu Wang is only a two-star level expert, some four-star and even five-star experts do not dare to show her any respect.
"If that's not enough, I'll bring over a few of my senior brothers as well," Ye Muxuan nodded.
"Hahaha." Venerable Emperor Hai laughed loudly, his voice booming, "Guiyi has always said that you are more interesting, and now I've seen it for myself."
Venerable Guiyi, Venerable Dihai, and Venerable Yingdao are all of the same generation according to their sect's seniority. They are the third-generation direct disciples of the Virtual Universe Company, so they are naturally much closer to each other.
"I won't keep you from taking over. After the Primal Star project is over, let's invite Guiyi over, and then we'll have a good drink together."
"Sure, give me a chance to drink some drinks then too."
The hundreds of Immortal Realm Lords behind Emperor Hai and Long Yu King remained quietly, not daring to disturb the conversation between the two super powerhouses, nor daring to listen to what they were saying.
Emperor Hai reached out, and the palace treasures that stretched for millions of kilometers beneath his feet shrank continuously as they flew, finally landing in his palm. They were now the size of a walnut, which he held in one hand.
Among the hundreds of immortals behind him, nine were granted the title of King and forty-seven the title of Marquis, all of whom flew up and disappeared into the palace's treasures.
Nodding to Ye Muxuan, Emperor Hai Venerable activated the Divine Kingdom Teleportation and left directly.
Ye Muxuan looked at the hundreds of immortal gods, including four kings, one hundred and three marquises, three hundred and sixty ordinary immortals, and over a thousand realm lords. These were all arranged here by the Virtual Universe Company and were not under the command of Emperor Hai. Therefore, even though Emperor Hai had left, they could not leave. They had to continue following the new guardian until they completed their mission and reached the deadline.
Ye Muxuan raised his hand and released a seven-story tower radiating a clear light. The tower floated above the continent, growing rapidly in the wind, quickly expanding to a size of millions of kilometers, with its base reaching a range of tens of millions of kilometers. This was the Xunfeng Tower, a high-grade palace treasure left behind by the two former universe lords, a high-grade treasure of the same quality as the Sirius Palace of the Sirius Lord. Now that he had come to oversee the Abyss of Purgatory, his presence naturally couldn't be shabby.
He is, after all, a recognized top cosmic overlord.
In fact, Ye Muxuan now possesses many palace treasures. Apart from the Wind and Rain Tower and the Rock Prison, the two universe lords left him three high-level palace treasures, with the Xunfeng Tower being just one of them. He also has six other ordinary palace treasures, all of which are currently stored in his divine kingdom.
As for Qingyuzhu's clone and Liyan's clone, these treasures that have already been revealed are not suitable for them to use, so they are currently using ordinary palace treasures. However, he will find a way to give them two high-level palace treasures in public later.
Ye Muxuan took a step forward and landed on the seventh floor of the Xunfeng Tower. He leaned on the palace railing and looked down at the thousands of Realm Lords and Immortals below. His calm voice echoed in everyone's ears.
"From this day forward, Longyu will be in charge of the Xunfeng Tower, and she will also be responsible for many matters in the Purgatory Abyss. If you are not comfortable here, please explain to Longyu within one year, and I will grant you permission to leave."
"Longyu, you are in charge of everything. If there are things you cannot decide, you can leave them to me. After one year, report to me how many people you need."
"Everything else remains the same for now."
When he first took office, he did not plan to make major changes, but if they did not meet his expectations, he would not make concessions. Those who should leave would leave, and those who should stay would stay.
……
Virtual universe, Thunder Island.
Inside the palace, Ye Muxuan looked at the email sent by Emperor Hai and learned a lot of information about the Purgatory Abyss that he did not know before.
Before countless epochs, the six dominant races were constantly at war with each other, especially on the borders. After countless epochs of war, the four dominant races—humans, demons, insects, and machines—occupied the best territories in the primordial universe, while the Crystal Race and the Prison Race, the other two dominant races, were defeated and could only occupy slightly less desirable territories.
Even if it's slightly inferior, it's still comparable to the territories occupied by the four top clans. Compared to other powerful and ordinary clans, the Crystal Clan and the Prison Clan have the best territories.
There was a war that seized a secret realm continent from the Prison Clan. It was one of the Prison Clan's best secret realms and had given birth to a large number of Prison Clan members.
The Prison Clan is a strange race. Unlike the Human and Insect races, they are not flesh-and-blood beings, but rather possess a distinct aura. They are not intelligent life forms like the Machine Race. They do not belong to any fixed type of life form; they could be rock-based, energy-based, plant-based, flesh-and-blood, or metal-based. Any living being born in a particular region can be considered a member of the Prison Clan.
Later, this continent was suppressed in the original secret realm of the human race. Thanks to the special rules of the cosmic secret realm, this continent also nurtured many strange creatures and some extremely precious treasures, which even made Venerables pay attention to and covet them, which is why it became one of the training grounds.
This was the prototype of the Abyss of Purgatory.
Countless eras have passed, and now, in the Abyss of Purgatory, a Venerable-level Hell Race has been born. They possess an evil aura and formidable strength, which is why a cosmic overlord is needed to oversee them.
This was formed by a special environment within a range of several light-years around this continent. It could be destroyed by force, but then those treasures would no longer be able to be created, and there would be a lack of training grounds, which would not be worthwhile. Therefore, the human race's high command sent a cosmic overlord to guard it.
