Heitie Star.

Xu Jingming still lived with Senior Brother Jian and Senior Brother Yi Jiu. Although he had been transferred to two other cosmic domains, he spent most of his time in the Tianmang Cosmic Domain. After all, this was the area Yuan Chu Research Institute was responsible for guarding.

"Judging by the time, the Eternal Academy's merit exchange should have already begun."

Xu Jingming, Senior Brother Jian, and Senior Brother Yi Jiu were sitting and chatting over drinks.

"Junior Brother, you've only become a Source Lifeform for over a hundred years."

Senior Brother Jian said, "This is your first time encountering a merit exchange, right?"

"Yes."

Xu Jingming nodded.

"This time, we're asking for help from the Eternal Academy, so it will definitely be a bit troublesome."

Yi Jiu said with a smile, "When our Yuan Chu Research Institute opens its exchange, the merits accumulated by Junior Brother will probably rank in the top ten, and you'll be able to exchange for what you want yourself."

Xu Jingming said, "I asked Senior Brother Saka for help, and it didn't take much effort to get things done."

"The exchange only has 300 items."

Senior Brother Jian sighed, "Some of them are just fillers. Only about a hundred are truly attractive, and there are only a few hundred copies of each."

"A few hundred copies, and ten thousand tenth-order Source Lifeforms are vying for them! Most are taken by those ranked in the top 100 in merits, and a small number randomly fall into the hands of lucky people among the ten thousand."

Senior Brother Jian said, "It's indeed not easy to compete for resources on the path of evolution."

Yi Jiu drank his wine, not caring as he said, "Every era has tens of thousands of tenth-order Source Lifeforms! But many high-dimensional items can only be provided by the three Supreme Realm existences. It's already very difficult for them to provide so much."

Xu Jingming nodded, "The three Supreme Realm existences have indeed contributed a lot to the entire human race."

They had to find ways to deal with the Supreme Realm existences of other races, prepare high-dimensional items and resources for generations of juniors, and also spend some effort to cultivate them.

When Source Lifeforms died in battle, they also had to revive these juniors! Without the support of revival, how could they fight against the Void God Clan and other alien races on the borders?

Now?

Today, the cosmic human race is still stable and developing normally, all supported by the three Supreme Realm existences.

"As long as a tenth-order Source Lifeform is willing to pay a premium and use up all their accumulated merits, they can still obtain the treasures they want."

Yi Jiu said, "But even if they obtain the resources, how many can use high-dimensional power? How many can become cosmic legends?"

"Compared to them."

Yi Jiu looked at Xu Jingming, "Junior Brother Wu Ming, your talent is much higher. You reached the eighth level of visualization with your mental strength as an eighth-order Starry Sky Lifeform, and you reached the tenth level after cultivating for over a hundred years."

"This is something that external forces can't help with."

"Even in just over a hundred years, your knowledge accumulation is not far from the tenth order."

Because they lived together, they felt Xu Jingming's monstrous talent even more.

He was indeed the peerless genius who became a Source Lifeform at the 35th fastest speed in the history of the cosmic human race.

"Senior Brother Yi Jiu, if you praise me so much, it will make me even more proud. If it causes me to fail to become a cosmic legend, I'll come looking for you." Xu Jingming said.

"You can't blame me for that! In history, there have been many geniuses who cultivated faster than you but didn't become cosmic legends." Yi Jiu said quickly.

Senior Brother Jian was drinking wine and looking at the starry sky. He also had ambitions.

He was the number one person of this generation in the *Mirror Domain* lineage, only a line away from the high dimension.

That line, however, was the difference between low dimension and high dimension.

"The step into becoming a cosmic legend is a leap in thinking, a leap in the different thinking between us lifeforms and high-dimensional lifeforms." Senior Brother Jian said.

"Mental strength is illusory. With the visualization of the Yuan Chu Star, there is a clear guide, which is relatively the easiest way to reach the high dimension."

Senior Brother Yi Jiu also said, "After that, it's a leap in thinking, a leap in realm."

"Finally, it's a leap in lifeform."

Yi Jiu said, "If all three steps are crossed, you become a high-dimensional lifeform."

Xu Jingming was silent, with desire in his eyes.

Every Source Lifeform yearned to become a high-dimensional lifeform!

"The exchange is over?"

Xu Jingming suddenly received a message.

Virtual World Network, Xu Jingming's personal space.

The short, fat, bald Mr. Lan Xie and the red-skinned, sturdy Senior Brother Saka had both come to Xu Jingming's place. Xu Jingming had already prepared fine wine to welcome these two friends.

"The exchange is over."

Mr. Lan Xie sat down and said, "The Tianmang Scale you wanted has been successfully exchanged."

"The Clear Spirit Water and the Guardian have also been successfully exchanged."

Senior Brother Saka also said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Lan Xie, thank you, Senior Brother Saka."

Xu Jingming was very grateful.

"After the exchange is successful, we need the recipient and address."

Mr. Lan Xie asked, "Where should the Tianmang Scale be sent? Should it be stored at your Yuan Chu Research Institute headquarters, or somewhere else?"

Many Source Lifeforms stored some precious items at the headquarters of top forces, so that even if they died in battle, they wouldn't have to worry about losing their treasures.

They could go to the headquarters to study high-dimensional items.

In fact, most Source Lifeforms on the battlefield didn't carry too many precious treasures.

For example, when Xu Jingming killed a ninth-order Prison Clan member, the spoils he obtained were generally around 20 trillion cosmic dollars, because the Prison Clan leaders didn't bring their most precious items to the battlefield at all.

"Senior Brother Saka, send the Guardian directly to the Blue Star civilization's home planet, Blue Star, in the WuGou Star Alliance, to my wife, Li Miaomiao."

Xu Jingming said, "As for the Tianmang Scale and the Clear Spirit Water, send them directly to me. I'll give you an accurate address later."

Lan Xie and Saka both nodded.

Xu Jingming still wanted to carry the Tianmang Scale and the Clear Spirit Water with him. He wasn't worried about losing them, because losing his No. 9 Yuan Chu battle armor would be the biggest loss.

He wouldn't give enemies a chance to steal his treasures. He would even run away when he encountered powerful enemies. He had no intention of fighting at all!

Carrying the Tianmang Scale with him was also unavoidable! Other Source Lifeforms still had time to return to the rear to rest, but Xu Jingming had too much influence on the Prison Clan battlefield, and he was almost always on the front lines!

At Xu Jingming's home, Li Miaomiao and her daughter, Xu Lixing, had been waiting at home for a long time.

"According to the time provided by Dad, the Guardian should arrive within this hour."

Xu Lixing was also waiting nervously. Li Miaomiao was sitting in the living room, slowly drinking a cup of tea.

Suddenly, a figure appeared out of thin air in the courtyard.

The mother and daughter immediately went to the courtyard.

This figure was a woman with short silver hair. She looked at Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing and said, "Guardian greets Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing of the Blue Star civilization."

"Buzz!"

A beam of light shot out from Li Miaomiao's wrist and enveloped the silver-haired woman. The silver-haired woman's eyes also emitted light, merging into the light.

"The Virtual World Network confirms that the ownership of the Guardian belongs to Li Miaomiao."

The voice of the Virtual World Network sounded.

"Greetings, Master."

The silver-haired woman looked at Li Miaomiao with much more respect. "Guardian 30972 has the destructive power of a ninth-order Source Lifeform's basic level. She is best at guarding, and the guarding methods are divided into six categories: spacetime travel, possession…"

Li Miaomiao smiled and said, "No hurry, let's talk inside."

The silver-haired woman's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile, "Yes, Master."

Xu Lixing watched excitedly from the side. Although Limo Group's assets were very large, that was the result of swallowing the Lei An Family's five major groups in the Hunter Cosmic Domain.

Even if she could buy a civilization-level intelligent robot worth 1 trillion cosmic dollars, it would be difficult for Limo Group to mobilize such huge liquid funds, because most of Limo Group's assets were fixed assets.

"A civilization-level intelligent robot is more valuable than an ordinary star system territory."

Xu Lixing thought to herself, "Dad is really amazing. He bought it as soon as he said he would."

Xu Jingming arrived at a life planet and waited for the Eternal Academy to deliver the goods.

"The Guardian has arrived on Blue Star?"

Xu Jingming received a message from his wife and daughter.

"My abilities are limited. Now I can only arrange a civilization-level intelligent robot for my family and Blue Star."

Xu Jingming thought to himself, "Like Vice President Chi Meng, he arranged three Silver-Clad Envoys and 300 Yellow-Clad Envoys for Di Jianuo."

"Even the Blue Star civilization only has the territory of one star system, the Milky Way, for the time being."

Xu Jingming thought.

The Hunter Cosmic Domain was in the hinterlands of the cosmic human territory, and there was no war. So, the slightly better places had been developed, and civilizations were multiplying! Like the Milky Way back then, it was the WuGou Star Alliance who came forward and paid a huge price for the great migration to prepare such a star system for the Blue Star civilization.

Even if Xu Jingming had money, it would be very difficult to expand another three to five star system territories.

Some civilizations had been rooted in the star system for too long, and even if they paid two or three times the value of the star system, they would not be willing to move.

"Mm?"

Xu Jingming sensed the arrival of an existence traversing spacetime.

"Lord Wu Ming."

The white-robed, winged man came over and bowed slightly. "Because the Tianmang Scale is too huge, let's transfer it in space!"

"Alright."

Xu Jingming nodded.

The two instantly arrived in the vast starry sky. The white-robed, winged man first handed Xu Jingming a black bottle: "The bottle contains a drop of Clear Spirit Water."

Xu Jingming took it.

Just with his mental perception, slightly touching the Clear Spirit Water through the bottle, Xu Jingming's mental strength was stimulated. He felt dazed, as if his mental strength saw a boundless ocean, an ocean even wider than the starry sky!

The ocean was calm without a trace of waves, and every drop of water was Clear Spirit Water.

Xu Jingming suddenly woke up.

"What I saw was the Clear Spirit Sea!" Xu Jingming thought to himself.

The Clear Spirit Sea, according to legend, was located in a mysterious and terrifying abyss in high-dimensional space.

The Clear Spirit Water in the Clear Spirit Sea was indeed endless, but even for the three Supreme Realm existences of humanity, collecting Clear Spirit Water was a very dangerous thing.

Only the Eternal Pagoda Master, who mainly studied the abyss, could collect more Clear Spirit Water.

Xu Jingming put away the bottle.

"Lord Wu Ming, this is the Tianmang Scale."

The white-robed, winged man waved his hand, and an oval, dark-gray scale about 12 kilometers long and wide appeared. As soon as it appeared, Xu Jingming felt an instinctive fear.

The sense of oppression it contained was too terrifying. Xu Jingming also understood that this sense of oppression was just a trace of the residue of the high-dimensional lifeform Tianmang.

"The Tianmang Scale has been suppressed and reduced in size by the Pagoda Master, and its diameter has been reduced by a thousand times."

The white-robed, winged man said, "This size is more suitable. If it is reduced further, it will not be suitable for observation. Now, the Tianmang Scale is officially handed over to Lord Wu Ming."

"Good!"

Xu Jingming nodded with a smile.

The white-robed, winged man nodded and then left through spacetime.

Xu Jingming was watching the scales of the high-dimensional creature floating in the starry sky. As a Source Lifeform who cultivated the Tianmang Evolution Method, he only felt that the scales had endless attraction. He couldn't help but become a little obsessed.
