CHAPTER 372: CHAPTER 330: COMING FURIOUSLY

The same words depend on who’s saying them.

If a pimple-faced fat black guy said he was afraid to sleep alone, Lan Tiange would definitely throw a dog at him.

But for Gao Xuan, she had to sacrifice herself to keep him company.

Then, Lan Tiange gained Gao Xuan, and also gained utmost satisfaction. This experience was more joyful than she imagined.

Interstellar travel is very boring because the starry sky is always deep and dark, and the shining stars all look pretty much the same.

Therefore, it’s best to find some entertainment during interstellar travel.

For Lan Tiange, Gao Xuan was undoubtedly the most interesting and fun, never getting tired of playing.

Gao Xuan’s power had already accumulated to the extreme, just waiting for the right moment to complete the transformation. He didn’t need to cultivate either.

Lan Tiange took the initiative to visit, and they had fun together.

With 32 points of constitution, Gao Xuan had an absolute advantage, making Lan Tiange utterly defeated and limp every time.

At such times, Gao Xuan couldn’t help but think of Helen. Helen’s constitution was truly strong, and she had absorbed Muse’s divinity, making her seductive allure unmatched.

Little Lan Tiange was just a weakling with a combat power of 5.

Fortunately, Gao Xuan could still play games with her. Connecting to the Battle Net on the spaceship was quite convenient.

"Wow, Brother Xuan is actually Dongfang Qiubai, amazing..."

After logging into the Battle Net, Lan Tiange realized that Gao Xuan was actually last year’s hottest Sword Dao live streamer, Dongfang Qiubai.

Dongfang Qiubai emerged as a new star last year, sweeping across numerous opponents, undefeated in tens of thousands of battles.

In this year’s Sword Saint finals, he triumphed over many heroes to win the virtual Sword Dao competition’s Sword Saint title.

The Sword Saint title is merely virtual competition honor, but the virtual Sword Dao competition has at least tens of billions of players. Being the strongest among billions means great influence.

Because Dongfang Qiubai always wore a mask, no one knew his true identity.

The identity of Dongfang Qiubai became the most controversial topic on the Battle Net.

However, players from the Twelve Star Domain generally assumed Dongfang Qiubai was Gao Xuan.

Because Dongfang Qiubai first logged into the Pegasus Star server.

In terms of timing, Gao Xuan and Dongfang Qiubai matched perfectly. Moreover, Gao Xuan displayed extraordinary swordsmanship in real combat.

For players from the Twelve Star Domain, Gao Xuan was undoubtedly Dongfang Qiubai, without any doubt.

The problem was that players from other star realms did not agree with this conclusion. Players from the Outer Star Realm had one opinion: there’s no way a small place like the Twelve Star Domain could produce a Sword Dao expert. Absolutely impossible!

While there were many players from the Twelve Star Domain, they were insignificant compared to the entire Battle Net.

The Sword Dao level in the Twelve Star Domain was generally low, having no voice on the Battle Net. Their opinions weren’t recognized and were even drowned in various speculations.

Lan Tiange occasionally played on the Battle Net, so she was certainly very interested in this influential figure from the Twelve Star Domain. She also guessed it was Gao Xuan.

This confirmed her guess, making her very surprised.

Gao Xuan’s Sword Saint identity couldn’t be hidden from those who cared. He never intended to hide it either.

He took Lan Tiange online to show off his ID and gained a fervent supporter, providing his Celestial Demon Relic with much spiritual spirit.

The game ID Dongfang Qiubai actually consistently provided him with a large amount of spiritual spirit income.

This stability even far exceeded his identity as Gao Xuan.

No matter the upheaval he caused in the Twelve Star Domain, its impact on the lower tiers was minimal. Most people hadn’t even heard of Gao Xuan’s name.

It’s different for Dongfang Qiubai; on this platform with hundreds of billions of players, all players knew him.

Especially after Gao Xuan became a Sword Saint, the collective spiritual spirit of hundreds of billions of players surged like the Yangtze River, continuously.

This shows the enormous influence virtual games have.

Most people in the Alliance don’t actually care about politics or news; their focus is what’s around them.

For addicted gamers, the game is everything.

Including Gao Xuan’s other game ID, Celestial Cicada, which is now the top Celestial Sword God.

However, the War God Glory game has over a hundred heroes, and a single hero being the top is far less notable than Dongfang Qiubai.

If Gao Xuan’s Celestial Cicada account remains top for another six months, it can achieve the Sword God accomplishment.

Becoming a Sword Saint is a bit more complicated, requiring Gao Xuan to win the Sword Dao first twice more to truly obtain the system-recognized Sword Saint title.

Looking at the timeline, Gao Xuan would need another year and a half to achieve the three conditions for virtual godhood.

Through this more than half-year practice, Gao Xuan also realized the terrifying influence of the Celestial Net.

For example, when the Alliance President is elected, it grabs nationwide attention. However, this hype only lasts around ten days.

Other than that, it’s rare for anything to capture the entire Alliance’s attention.

The Alliance is too vast, with endless information every moment. Everyone can only focus on a very small scope to receive information.

Like how he dominated the Twelve Star Domain, but the middle and lower tiers of the Twelve Star Domain barely cared. Not to mention the Outer Star Realm people.

Only those closely connected to the Twelve Star Domain’s upper echelons might have some interest in him.

This level of attention on the Battle Net isn’t much different from ordinary curious onlookers.

To absorb spiritual power and spread influence, one can only rely on the Celestial Net.

Among these, the most convenient and efficient is the Battle Net platform.

Gao Xuan also understood why that Alien Race could perform virtual godhood.

He only stirred up things for half a year, gaining some notoriety on the Battle Net, yet could already absorb a large amount of spiritual power.

The Battle Net has accumulated for hundreds of years, with generations of humans accumulating an unknown amount of spiritual power within.

As long as there is a suitable method of transformation, one can use the vast infinite spiritual power accumulated in the Battle Net for divine enthronement.

However, the Celestial Demon Relic has already accumulated 5%. At this rate, it will take less than ten years to fully accumulate the Celestial Demon Relic.

Gao Xuan is a bit worried whether the Celestial Demon Relic can seize the power of the Battle Net.

If the Celestial Demon Relic is a giant swimming pool, then the spiritual power accumulated in the Battle Net is an ocean.

In terms of quantity, there is a significant disparity between the two.

When in doubt, of course, consult the Book of All-Knowing.

For such a major issue, Gao Xuan naturally wants clarity. As a result, the Book of All-Knowing demands a sacrifice of a divine-level divine soul.

That price is something Gao Xuan cannot afford.

He killed two evil gods, but that was through the Godslaying Sword.

It could be said he cleverly managed it, as he had no ability to seize the opponent’s divine soul.

Therefore, this matter can only be set aside for now.

Gao Xuan plans to first achieve the title of Golden Sword Saint and win the Sword King title in the finals.

Then, find an opportunity to enter the Celestial Battle Realm to search for the Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada, and incidentally help Helen with the Sea God Trident.

If Gao Xuan could obtain the Sea God Trident, he certainly wouldn’t give it to Hercules. His father-in-law is unreliable. Such an extremely powerful marvel is best given to his wife for peace of mind.

After three hundred years of settling in the mythical world, Gao Xuan’s heart is now completely calm.

He has made plans and carries them out orderly, but will no longer be as impatient as he was before.

A calm mindset allows him to think more clearly and enjoy life more leisurely.

Lan Tiange is a beautiful woman, although lacking in uniqueness, she is youthful and beautiful, exuding the vigor of life.

Including her naivety and simplicity, these are actually very precious.

After settling for three hundred years, Gao Xuan has become more mature and needs to draw energy from young, beautiful women.

With beautiful company, time flies by quickly.

Gao Xuan and Lan Tiange spent time with people, played games, and in the blink of an eye, a month passed.

The cargo spaceship has reached the space dock of Taiwei Star.

The space dock contains hundreds of massive platforms, with extremely complex designs. After docking, people and goods are separated and transported to the ground through different space passages.

This is the same as on Taurus. The difference is that Taiwei Star is much larger than Taurus. Moreover, Taiwei Star has six habitable small satellites.

Four space fortresses are also arranged around Taiwei Star.

The Golden Bull University Sword Team members are almost all coming for the first time. The group looked at the enormous space layout of Taiwei Star, all marveling and praising.

A space fortress costs around hundreds of billions, with maintenance and upkeep expenses that are equally high. They must be equipped with corresponding auxiliary fleets.

Although there are no technical issues with constructing a space fortress, few planets can support its high financial expenditures.

Now the Twelve Star Domain even plans to dismantle several space fortresses due to too much fiscal pressure.

The formation displayed by Taiwei Star in space is summed up in one word: extravagant.

The kind of thing that can’t be faked. A simple comparison can show the immense disparity between Taurus and Taiwei Star.

Many noble family disciples understand this truth. Hence, they all express admiration.

Ji Xiuying coldly disdains her disciples’ novice looks. But they have never seen the world, which is hard to disguise.

Fortunately, the team also includes Gao Xuan, who, no matter where he goes, becomes the focus of attention, drawing a wave of discussion and exclamations.

Upon leaving the terminal, the Golden Bull University team received countless looks of attention.

Some bold girls even followed the team, with some coming up to ask for Gao Xuan’s contact number.

Lan Tiange, standing beside Gao Xuan, glared in disbelief but could not stop these enthusiastic girls.

Any good-looking girl won’t be turned away by Gao Xuan.

Beautiful life requires his care and protection. Since he was born so incomparably handsome, he should bear that responsibility.

After the girls dispersed, Lan Tiange quietly said to Gao Xuan with a trace of grievance, "Brother Xuan, why do you add everyone as a friend?"

"They are so enthusiastic, hard to refuse. I don’t want to see beautiful girls sad."

This kind of excuse from Gao Xuan left Lan Tiange somewhat disappointed.

Gao Xuan patted Lan Tiange’s shoulder gently, "Whether it’s people or other things, if they make you unhappy, you should give them up."

Lan Tiange looked at Gao Xuan in disbelief, not expecting such callousness from him.

"I’m actually doing this for your own good. Standing too close to me will hurt you with my brilliance..."

Gao Xuan’s expression was gentle, but his words carried a sense of distance.

Lan Tiange, although prepared for this, couldn’t help but feel sad. She silently withdrew to Lan Tianshou’s side.

The team noticed the changed atmosphere and looked toward Gao Xuan. The eyes of a few boys clearly said one thing: scoundrel.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy.

At this moment, a tall man walked up to Gao Xuan, "Are you Gao Xuan?"

Gao Xuan nodded, "And who are you?"

"I’m a classmate of Talos, my name is Song Muyang."

Song Muyang asked in a deep voice, "Are you the one who killed Talos?"
