Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 568 - 555: Networking
"So many Immortal Spirits!?"
Alkaid was secretly shocked.
One should know that even within the Chaotic Origin Realm, Immortal Spirits are considered high-level beings.
They require individual Spirits of Wisdom to start from Level One and cultivate step by step, evolving until they can enter the Immortal Domain.
At this moment, he had just "connected to the network" and was already perceiving millions of Immortal Spirits...
Moreover, these were the Immortal Spirits from just the "Immortal Realm Area," which naturally astonished him.
However, he soon realized that this was a war between two worlds!
In the battle between the two realms, the Chaotic Origin Realm side dispatched millions of Immortal Spirits to the Ancient Immortal Realm, and this number wasn't too many, in fact, it was somewhat less.
Even mobilizing several hundred million, or tens or hundreds of billions, would not be surprising.
Alkaid briefly made contact and soon realized something.
The average level of the Immortal Spirits was quite high.
There were very few below the Fifteenth Level.
In other words, the ones that came were the elite of the elite.
Consequently, the presence of only a few million was reasonable.
"The power of authority that a Sixteenth Level Immortal Spirit can wield is not inferior to that of an Immortal, the Seventeenth Level directly points to Immortal Venerable, and the Eighteenth Level even rivals the Immortal King... Of course, not every Eighteenth Level Immortal Spirit in the Ancient Immortal Realm has the Immortals King Realm, but as long as one reaches the Immortals King Realm, by offering the experience related to ascending to Immortal King, one can raise the authority of the Master of Primordial Yi to Eighteenth Level."
Alkaid quietly sensed the power of the authority he now had at the Seventeenth Rank.
If he utilized his authority, receiving the computing power support from the Master of Primordial Yi would almost equate to instantaneously elevating his cognitive consciousness and perception level to rival that of an Immortal Venerable.
In this state, whether he was improving his cultivation or comprehending Dao Techniques, his insights would be on the level of an Immortal Venerable, and his efficiency...
Was simply astonishingly rapid.
"No wonder as long as you have authority, you can cultivate to the corresponding level, it's just a matter of time... to some extent, allowing a Seventeenth Level authority holder to become an Immortal Venerable is almost like letting someone who once had Immortal Venerable level insight reincarnate and cultivate again. Provided the resources are sufficient, there would hardly be any bottlenecks."
Alkaid pondered silently: "Moreover, when fighting against Immortal Venerables of the same realm, an Immortal Venerable empowered by Seventeenth Level authority is equivalent to having another Immortal Venerable assisting from the side. Although they do not directly intervene, they can help with calculations and probing the opponent's weaknesses, thus enabling stronger combat power."
Unable to surpass in cultivation, unable to win in battle.
No wonder each cultivator from the Chaotic Origin Realm is so esteemed, referring to the native cultivators of the Ancient Immortal Realm as natives.
Between the two...
The difference was basically like that of players and wild monsters.
With the same attributes and level, how could wild monsters defeat players?
Not only do they have advantages in all aspects, but in the transmission of information, they also far surpass the natives who battle on their own merits by an unknown number of streets.
At this moment, Alkaid saw many Immortal Spirits continuously disseminating information.
"A native Immortal Rank cultivator spotted, challenge Level 20-25, seeking teammates of Level 15-20 to assist."
"One volume of Great Grade Golden Immortal Art cultivation insights, content reaches Level 50, exchanging for a Level 30 Darkness Dao usable equipment."
"Selling Chaos Avenue One 'Earth Immortal' job transfer materials, includes corresponding Heaven and Earth Treasures for Chaos Avenue One, Job Transfer Manual, Blessed Land Coordinates."
"Seeking an Artifact Refiner to forge Level 100 Great Path of Destruction equipment, materials provided, service fee 300,000 Immortal Currency, must have Seventeenth Level Artifact Refiner certification."
"Artifact Refiners, Alchemists, Array Masters are in such high demand now, you think you can hire a Seventeenth Level Artifact Refiner for 300,000 Immortal Currency to refine your artifact, what a joke?"
Countless pieces of information like "Divine Sense" flickered and converged in this world.
Alkaid casually glanced through, and even with the "Computing Power" he controlled, he was somewhat "unable to keep up".
After a short while, he quickly realized that this chaotic information could be filtered.
Moreover, there were quite a few filtering conditions.
Such as region, profession, realm, wealth, authority level, and so on.
He could choose to only view information within a certain region, or related to a certain type of Immortal or Great Dao, or set it to only view Immortal Level information or information from Sixteenth Level authority holders and above, and the like, which was extremely convenient.
Alkaid concentrated and glanced over the regions he could view...
They were the Virtual Immortal Realm, Thirty-six Continents, and then Domains, Sects, and Countries.
Country is the smallest unit.
Alkaid pondered for a while and quickly found a "location" option.
Before long, he had clarified his current location.
Cloud Sea Continent, Eight Desolate Domain, Xuanyuan Sect, Jade Country.
He searched for a while and quickly found the introduction to Jade Country.
But if he wanted detailed information, he would have to pay to purchase it.
All countries are often founded by Dao Lords.
However, some countries are no longer under the rule of a Dao Lord and merely survive on the lingering fame of their ancestors.
The Immortal Sects one level above the countries represent Immortal Legacy, and above that, Domain Masters are ruled by Immortal Venerables.
As for the Nine Major Groups, each one is a giant that spans across continents or has projected its influence into every continent.
Nearly every continent has an Immortal King in residence.
"This is convenient, and the first thing I need to understand is my greatest opponent..."
Alkaid quickly started searching for related information on the "Void Immortal King".
"There is only one Immortal King of the Great Void Path, and that is Tian Yu, a director of Tianyuan Group!"
He scrolled down a bit through this director's profile.
Even though it was only the most publicly available information, the fact that this Immortal King occupied over three thousand five hundred shares of the Great Void Path indicated how weighty his influence was among the many Immortal Kings.
Currently, he is the second-in-command of Tianyuan Group, not only is his strength formidable, but his authority level is also as high as Level Nineteen, making him among the Immortal Spirits of Level Nineteen.
Such Immortal Spirits belong to the absolute upper echelon throughout the entire Chaotic Origin Realm.
Apart from a handful of Level Twenty Immortal Spirits that can be counted on one's fingers, they are already considered the strongest in the Chaotic Origin Realm.
Alkaid checked the information for a moment, then proceeded to look into the chairman of Tianyuan Group.
This chairman is a top Immortal King of the Chaos Dao, calling himself Yuan Kun Immortal King, and occupying nearly four thousand shares of the Chaos Dao.
His strength is on par with the Void Immortal King.
Such a comparison of strengths...
"Two tigers cannot share one mountain?"
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
Alkaid searched for detailed information on both of them.
The result...
Requires payment.
At the moment, he didn't have any Immortal Currency usable in the Virtual Immortal Realm, so naturally, he couldn't afford it.
"Immortal Currency... Is the anchor object the Great Dao Share? Is one share of the Great Dao already selling for ten thousand Immortal Currency?"
Alkaid checked, and the required Immortal Currency share for the purchase of information for both Immortal Kings Yuan Kun and Tian Yu varied.
The low priced was only tagged at 1 Immortal Currency.
The high was up to 30 million Immortal Currency.
When he saw the price tag of 30 million Immortal Currency, Alkaid was somewhat speechless.
With that amount of money, one could buy 3000 shares of the Great Dao. As long as one's realm is sufficient, after refining 3000 shares of the Great Dao, one's own strength wouldn't be much weaker than that of Immortal Kings Yuan Kun and Void, so why bother buying their information?
It all seemed rather unreliable.
"That Master of Primordial Yi can't come up with an identification function to help verify whether these messages are worth the price? Are we just going to let these Immortal Spirits randomly set prices and disrupt the market?"
Alkaid complained in his mind.
Out of necessity, he could only turn his attention to the gossip related to Tianyuan Group.
Gossip...
Emphasizes the word "wild".
It was very hard to discern the truth, almost impossible to identify.
But there were some messages, from which Alkaid was able to deduce some guessworthy information.
After careful analysis, he still came to some credible intelligence: "Tianyuan Group was founded jointly by two Level Nineteen Immortal Spirits, one was the former chairman Heavenly Ruins, and the other is the current chairman Yuan Kun. However, Heavenly Ruins, in an attempt to break through to Level Twenty Authority, turned his focus to the Gate of Destiny, and under the arrangement of destiny, he encountered an attack from native cultivators and unfortunately perished. Now Tian Yu Immortal King... can be considered the successor of Heavenly Ruins Immortal King."
As he flipped through these somewhat useful pieces of information, he gradually came to some conclusions.
Although Tianyuan Group was founded by Heavenly Ruins and Yuan Kun, two Level Nineteen Authority Holders, during the process of establishment and development, Heavenly Ruins had always held the reins of Tianyuan Group, so that many Immortal Spirits in the group still had great faith in him.
Moreover, with the successor Tian Yu Immortal King being just as competent, with his authority level having recently been upgraded to Level Nineteen, many of the older generation of Immortal Spirits couldn't help but stand out, hoping Yuan Kun Immortal King could return the chairman seat to Tian Yu Immortal King.
But how could Yuan Kun Immortal King give up his power after obtaining it?
Naturally, the entanglement of interests between the new and old generations emerged.
And the reason why Alkaid had a certain degree of trust in these pieces of information is because they were leaked by powers such as Changsheng Group, Creation Group, and Shenluo Corporation, with the intention of damaging Tianyuan Group's reputation.
The power struggle among the Nine Major Groups had almost become overt; even though Immortal Kings hadn't personally entered the fray, the battles involving Immortal Venerable level have already emerged from time to time, albeit not frequently.
This sort of mudslinging was just child's play.
"Having understood who the enemy is, the next step is... the method of entry... whether to join the camp of Yuan Kun Immortal King from Tianyuan Group to oppose Tian Yu Immortal King, or... to start with Creation Group or Xi Yu Group, climb to a high position, and then instigate internal strife within the Nine Major Groups..."
While Alkaid was pondering his next actions, he seemed to perceive something, showing a look of surprise.
...
Lower Realm Starry Sky.
Aboard a warship that was speeding through the void, a Dao Lord who was suppressed by Alkaid kept issuing threats: "My Creation Sect is destined to unify the Universe Starry Sky. If you stubbornly oppose my Creation Sect to the end, you are sure to meet a destructive blow from my Creation Sect's Dao Venerable!"
Alkaid didn't speak but instead used the Great Dao Tower to apply Soul Secret Arts, observing the soul fluctuations emitted by this Dao Lord.
Because just now, when he had captured this Dao Lord, he had exhibited the strength at the level of an Invincible Dao Lord, yet this Dao Lord showed not the slightest fear and even invoked the Dao Venerable behind him, which made him realize something.
The Dao Venerable behind this Dao Lord...
Was likely a true Dao Venerable!
Combined with the renown of the Creation Sect, it was hard not to associate it with something.
