The Dao of Reincarnation (353-354) (Patreon)

Chapter 353: The Main God Space (Part 9)

Sun Wang stared in shock at the group of uninvited guests.

The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in a sharp suit. What caught Sun Wang's attention was the emblem on the man's chest: a fist gripping a bright moon.

Grasping the sun and moon, plucking the stars.

"It's someone from Apex City…" Sun Wang thought, stunned.

Apex City was one of the top forces. It housed Eleventh Order experts (Great Saints) who had broken their genetic locks and could easily destroy an entire star domain. For such a powerful organization to send someone here was extraordinary.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "So this is the young brother who cleared the nightmare-level beginner instance?"

He completely ignored Sun Wang and focused his gaze on Su Chen.

Su Chen glanced at him. He was not surprised that the man knew about him clearing the nightmare-level instance. Such news could not be hidden from truly influential powers. The force behind the middle-aged man was significant, and the man himself was a Nirvana realm expert.

However, Su Chen was not interested.

A bit of arrogance was normal for a genius.

The middle-aged man's smile remained as he handed over a black card. "I am from Apex City. I would like to invite you to join us. This card contains one hundred thousand points. If you are willing to join Apex City, not only will you receive the points, but you will also gain guidance from our veteran divine envoys. This is an excellent choice for you."

"Lu Feilong, this is a once-in-ten-thousand-years newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance, and you're trying to recruit him with a mere one hundred thousand points? How stingy. Truly too stingy."

A hearty laugh rang out from afar. A man arrived riding a flying sword, hands behind his back, exuding the elegant demeanor of a sword immortal.

Sun Wang held his breath.

"Flying Immortal Pavilion… It's actually someone from Flying Immortal Pavilion…"

Flying Immortal Pavilion was also one of the top forces in the region. Unlike Apex City, they followed the path of immortal cultivation, wielding magical artifacts to slay enemies from thousands of miles away.

"Jiang Bai!" Lu Feilong's expression darkened. If looks could kill, Jiang Bai would have died countless times.

Jiang Bai paid no attention to him. "One hundred thousand points? Young brother, don't ruin your bright future over short-term gains. Our Flying Immortal Pavilion is willing to offer one million points. If you join us, the one million points are yours!"

One million points left even Lu Feilong staring at Jiang Bai in shock.

Sun Wang was completely dumbfounded.

One million points… That was one million points!

In the Main God Hall, points granted nearly unlimited power, even immortality and indestructibility. With one million points, Sun Wang could become a major figure everyone looked up to. Now that a heaven-defying opportunity stood before him, he swallowed hard, barely suppressing the urge to agree immediately.

He knew the Flying Immortal Pavilion was not recruiting him.

"One million points? Is your Flying Immortal Pavilion going bankrupt? That event is about to begin soon!"

Lu Feilong lowered his voice. One million points was no small sum. It was a massive fortune even for them, especially when investing in a newcomer at such a critical time. Every point mattered.

Jiang Bai replied calmly, "That's none of Apex City's concern. Our Flying Immortal Pavilion has always valued talent. One million points is nothing. A prodigy like this young brother is worth every bit of it."

Lu Feilong cursed inwardly: "Pretentious bastard."

Jiang Bai turned his gaze to Su Chen.

He noticed that the young man before him remained even calmer than he was upon hearing the offer of one million points.

"Wait a moment. Our Mechanical God Sect is also willing to offer one million points, along with a Ninth Order Saint Core to reconstruct your body."

A burly black-and-gold figure arrived late.

The Mechanical God Sect was another top force in the region.

One million points plus a Ninth Order Saint Core…

Sun Wang's throat felt dry. A Ninth Order Saint Core was worth no less than a Saint artifact. It was a heaven-defying treasure. He glanced at its price in the Main God Space… three million points!

In total, the offers were worth four million points… Sun Wang felt dizzy, his eyes turning red.

If only those four million points were his!

To his astonishment, facing such enormous temptation, the youth remained completely unmoved…

He wished he could answer in Su Chen's place.

Lu Feilong's expression darkened. The others were offering one million points each, and now even a Ninth Order Saint Core had appeared. Didn't this make Apex City look incredibly stingy? If word of this spread, it would be a massive blow to their reputation!

Gritting his teeth, Lu Feilong said, "Our Apex City is also willing to offer one million points, plus any Ninth Order Saint artifact of your choice!"

In terms of value, a Ninth Order Saint artifact was superior to a Ninth Order Saint Core.

Lu Feilong had gone all out.

Jiang Bai: "..."

Were these two forces trying to go bankrupt?

"A once-in-ten-thousand-years newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance, and you people are trying to recruit him with mere points?"

A light, pleasant female laugh echoed through the city. A pair of delicate jade feet stepped across rippling water, accompanied by the clear sound of bells. An otherworldly woman in a ruqun dress appeared. She looked disdainfully at the other three major forces.

The Divine Maiden Pavilion had arrived. The four top forces of the region were now gathered in one place, all competing for a single person.

"Qin Miaoyin!"

Seeing the woman appear, the other three forces felt their hearts sink.

Qin Miaoyin ignored their angry gazes and smiled lightly. "As long as you are willing to join our Divine Maiden Pavilion, we can fulfill everything they promised you… In addition, you may choose ten Divine Maidenes from our pavilion as your companions to assist your cultivation."

This was bad!

The eyes of the other three nearly burned with killing intent. This was completely shameless.

"Doesn't your Divine Maiden Pavilion consist entirely of women? Don't you accept men?"

Lu Feilong ground his teeth. They had arrived first, yet each subsequent offer was more outrageous than the last.

Qin Miaoyin replied disdainfully, "Our Divine Maiden Pavilion simply does not accept useless men. A newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance naturally has the potential we value."

Lu Feilong: "..."

What flexible standards.

The other three forces were stunned by the Divine Maiden Pavilion's shamelessness.

"So, have you considered it?"

Qin Miaoyin looked down at Su Chen with full confidence. No man could resist the temptation of the Divine Maiden Pavilion… Ordinary men found it extremely difficult to even meet one of their Divine Maidenes, let alone possess ten at once. This was the dream of any man.

This was also the purpose behind the Divine Maiden Pavilion's schemes spanning tens of thousands of years. Today, upon encountering Su Chen, they had finally bared their fangs!

Chapter 354: The Main God Space (Part 10)

"I refuse."

Facing the tempting offers from the four major forces, Su Chen spoke calmly. His words caused the air to fall silent.

"You… what did you say? You refuse?"

Qin Miaoyin could hardly believe her ears. She even suspected she had misheard. The young man before her was in the prime of his youth and vigor. Why would he reject the Divine Maiden Pavilion?

Her expression changed instantly as she smiled. "What a greedy little lord. If you join our Divine Maiden Pavilion, not only can you choose any ten Divine Maidenes, but this servant can also belong to you."

Su Chen's expression turned strange.

No matter how long he had lived, he could not understand this woman's way of thinking. Did she actually believe he was interested in her?

"I will say it one more time. Step aside. I have no interest in joining any of you."

Su Chen's tone remained calm.

The four major forces had offered increasingly generous terms to recruit him.

Unfortunately, Su Chen was not interested in any of them.

In other words, he did not want to become entangled in the karma of any of these four powers.

Su Chen left. He was about to start his next mission.

The four representatives were left staring at one another.

"He's just a lucky newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance… Giving him face, yet he refuses it!"

Qin Miaoyin's previously smiling face turned icy in an instant, killing intent flashing in her eyes. The Divine Maiden Pavilion had even been willing to break its rules, yet she had been rejected!

The other three also looked displeased, but seeing Qin Miaoyin's expression, they suddenly felt a bit better.

"?"

Suddenly, all four of them froze. They exchanged glances and vanished from the city.

Another newcomer had cleared a nightmare-level instance!

Sun Wang stood there in a daze as the four departed. It all felt like a dream… Someone had actually rejected the recruitment offers of the four major forces and dismissed a million points like trash.

Sun Wang looked in the direction Su Chen had left. Extreme jealousy and hatred surged in his heart. The things he dreamed of had been casually rejected by another. The feeling made him wish Su Chen would die.

"Boss… don't blame me… I don't want to do this either."

"Why? Why do you reject so many opportunities when they are right in front of you?"

Sun Wang decisively contacted a mysterious person and leaked Su Chen's movements.

....

The Main God Space contained countless different regions.

In a region opposite to where Su Chen was located, a tall man looked at the message that had popped up before him.

"A newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance has appeared in the Polar Star region."

The tall man murmured, "The battlefield is about to open. This concerns the rankings… A newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance poses too great a threat. If he grows, even sacrificing the high-end combat power of the Polar Star region might not secure it. We could even face backlash. To ensure everything goes smoothly, you must die."

The tall man sighed inwardly. Why had a newcomer who cleared a nightmare-level instance not appeared in their region?

Now he had no choice but to eliminate this threat, which would require a heavy price. He sent over ten thousand points and began using the coordinates to locate the mission world Su Chen had entered.

"Hm? Is this seeking death, or has he already been discovered? Or perhaps some Ninth Order expert is taking him there for training?"

The tall man was surprised to find that the world Su Chen had chosen was a Level Nine world… a world that contained Saint realm experts. As far as he knew, the newcomer who cleared the nightmare-level instance was just a rookie. Why would he choose to enter such a dangerous world for his mission?

It was no different from courting death.

The man's expression shifted uncertainly before he finally made up his mind.

"Send the Godslayer Team. No matter what scheme is involved, the Godslayer Team can handle it easily. There might even be additional surprises…"

If nothing else, they could treat it as a relaxing vacation in another world!

...

Su Chen arrived in another world through the Main God Space. He stood atop a towering mountain, overlooking the vast landscape and shifting winds and clouds. It would be even better if he had a fishing rod right now.

Su Chen felt a touch of regret. He waved his hand behind him, and a talisman appeared in his palm, gradually revealing its true form.

"I hope I can catch some big fish."

Sun Wang had planted a tracking talisman on him. No matter how cautious the man had been, he could not hide it from Su Chen's perception.

Su Chen had not exposed it and pretended nothing had happened. He wanted to see which force dared to scheme against him. Sun Wang was merely an insignificant pawn. Su Chen had initially thought it would be one of the four major powers in this region, but it seemed otherwise. For Sun Wang to take such a risk, the force behind him might even surpass those four powers.

This Level Nine world was one Su Chen had chosen personally. It was not that he specifically wanted a Level Nine world, but his current highest authority only allowed him to enter up to Level Nine. One of the benefits of the Main God Space was that as long as he did not destroy the mission world, any karma created upon completion and return could not follow him back into the space. Not even an Immortal King would dare pursue him there!

This was one of the most terrifying forces in the myriad heavens, with foundations no weaker than the Transmigrator Alliance—perhaps even stronger in some aspects. For Su Chen, the Main God Space was currently the best place for leveling up and farming. Slaughtering Saint-level orthodoxies in the original world might bring trouble, but inside the Main God Space, he had no such worries.

[Choose Faction]

[Holy Clan Faction / All Beings Faction]

Su Chen glanced at the prompt on the mission interface and casually chose the All Beings Faction. After all, the Holy Clan appeared to be a powerful race. The stronger they were, the more useful they would be to him. Perfecting the path of devouring and evolving his origin would increase his chances of achieving immortality in the future.

[All Beings Faction Mission 1: Kill members of the opposing faction from the Main God Space. Each kill grants 100,000 points.]

[All Beings Faction Mission 2: Help the All Beings Faction overthrow the Holy Clan's rule. Completion reward: 1,000,000 points.]

A factional free-for-all?

Su Chen smiled.

He only hoped those people had the means to discover which faction he had chosen. With the tenfold points multiplier from the Main God Space's origin power, each person was worth one million points. Even the four major powers, despite their extreme reluctance, had only dared to offer one million points, and everything else besides points had been illusory.
