They are slaughtering another group of people.

"Puchi!"

"Puchi~" The sound of flesh and blood exploding echoed.

Soon, the place returned to silence.

"Prince Yan Yi."

"Your Highness." These men and women all looked towards the center, at the red-eyed, demonic youth being praised like the moon surrounded by stars.

The red-eyed youth slowly stepped out, his gaze scanning the ground full of corpses.

"Hoo~" A flame appeared in his hand, which leaped out and landed on the bodies on the ground.

Roar!

The flames burned fiercely, and in the blink of an eye, all the corpses were incinerated to nothingness.

The red-eyed youth Yan Yi closed his eyes slightly, as if absorbing something.

Soon.

"Swish~" He opened his eyes.

"Too weak."

Yan Yi shook his head slightly: "I thought coming to this Second Star Ring, I would encounter nourishment that interested me."

"I didn't expect it to be such trash."

"Your Highness." A young girl in a black dress whispered: "Jiang Ye, ranked third on the bounty list, his reward has increased again."

"Jiang Ye?" Yan Yi opened the ranking projection.

"So it's him."

"He's also in zone 3001?" Yan Yi suddenly laughed: "The increased bounty amount is exactly the same as Black Nether's, it seems he killed Black Nether."

"Your Highness, will you go after him?" The black-dressed girl asked with an upturned face: "After you devour him, your strength will surely advance further."

"No rush."

"This person's strength may not be much weaker than Dong Huang." Yan Yi chuckled: "Let him live a bit longer, our primary objective is that Earth Spirit Essence."

"This item is beneficial even after reaching the Fourth Break."

"What do you all say?" Yan Yi glanced at the others.

"We follow Your Highness." The other men and women all responded in agreement.

They all came from the 1.3-level civilization, the Skyfire Civilization.

Each one was a genius comparable to Ji Bei, and many were even stronger than Ji Bei.

But in front of Yan Yi, these people were extremely respectful.

Yan Yi! He is the strongest Invincible Tao Bone in the Skyfire Civilization.

Also a direct disciple of a god.

During this journey to the Star Realm Sea, they all have to obey him.

"Your Highness." The black-dressed girl's eyes were filled with admiration: "No matter what you do, I will be with you."

"Good." Yan Yi smiled slightly: "Once we get the Earth Spirit Essence, we'll kill that Jiang Ye."

"I won't let you down."

Yan Yi understood the black-dressed girl's thoughts.

The girl, who had lived with him since childhood, admired him immensely.

In the eyes of the black-dressed girl, Yan Yi was destined to become the most powerful genius of this era, defeating all heroes, and ultimately becoming the youngest god of the Skyfire Civilization.

Thus.

The stronger Jiang Ye's performance, the more the black-dressed girl anticipated the moment when Yan Yi would kill Jiang Ye.

...

Black Wind Valley.

"Whoosh!"

Across the vast sky and earth, a streak of light suddenly passed by.

"How come I haven't seen a single alien race in Black Wind Valley?" Jiang Ye frowned and muttered.

Black Wind Valley was extremely vast.

Even at Jiang Ye's speed, it took several minutes to fly through the entire valley.

Such a broad area, yet there wasn't a single living person.

Mysterious indeed.

"Of course it's because they were scared off by you." Bai Gui's voice sounded.

"Scared off by me?" Jiang Ye was taken aback.

"That spear technique you just displayed, even a Fourth Break strong person could be threatened." Bai Gui chuckled: "How could they not be scared off?"

Jiang Ye was astonished, then couldn't help but smile.

Indeed!

That spear was the strongest attack he had ever performed in his life.

"Spear Technique Divine Rhythm is truly a wonderful thing."

"With the divine rhythm's enhancement, if I can execute the complete second Ultimate Technique," Jiang Ye thought to himself, "I might even be able to slay a true Fourth Break strong person."

The higher the realm, the harder it is to defeat one of a higher level.

It is very difficult for a Quasi-Fourth Break to defeat a Fourth Break.

Except for Invincible Tao Bones, even Meteor Star-level geniuses find it hard to achieve.

"Bai Gui."

"How do I compare with the Invincible Tao Bones from a first-level civilization now?" Jiang Ye inquired.

He had never encountered an Invincible Tao Bone from a first-level civilization.

Let alone Invincible Tao Bones, he hadn't even met many ordinary geniuses.

The alien races Jiang Ye had encountered so far were mostly from civilizations below the first level.

Like Black Nether.

A 0.9-level civilization's Invincible Tao Bone was the strongest Jiang Ye had encountered.

"Battle power is the hardest to judge."

"It's rather troublesome to compare." Bai Gui said, "Don't worry, if you encounter a strong enemy, I'll warn you."

"Hmm." Jiang Ye nodded.

Bai Gui often acted as his guide.

Like the previous encounter with Black Nether, Bai Gui had warned Jiang Ye.

In fact, Black Nether was indeed formidable. If it weren't for Jiang Ye's comprehension of the Spear Technique Divine Rhythm and his use of the embryonic form of his second ultimate technique, he might not have been able to defeat the opponent.

...

Time passed, and Jiang Ye collected opportunities in Black Wind Valley, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.

Half an hour later.

At the exit of Black Wind Valley.

"One Lower A level opportunity, three Upper B level opportunities."

"As expected of the second Star Ring." Jiang Ye looked at the few treasures in his hand, "The first Opportunity Land already yielded a harvest."

Now, he had collected two Third Tier A level opportunities.

Of course, relying on these alone to break through the Fourth Break was still not enough.

From Quasi-Fourth Break to Fourth Break, it requires more than just crossing the Life Threshold; there are even more stringent requirements.

"Fourth Break, Open Xuan Acupoint."

"It's essentially the process of opening up the spiritual sea," Jiang Ye mused, "The spiritual sea, as recorded in some ancient methods."

Jiang Ye was no longer the naive youth he once was.

He had learned about many historical facts: "Even in the old times before cosmic Martial Arts emerged, ancient methods existed to help open the spiritual sea."

"The ancients said that with a hundred years of power, one can charge the heavens, break the chaos in the brain, and carve out the spiritual sea."

"This was the path to opening the spiritual sea in the old era."

A hundred years of power to carve out the spiritual sea!

This shows how incredibly difficult the process is.

The emergence of cosmic Martial Arts has greatly shortened this process, yet even for geniuses, it requires a significant amount of time.

Opening the Xuan Acupoint is a complex and mysterious process, without room for any mistakes.

Relying on just a few opportunities to complete it? Very difficult.

It's not just about the Life Threshold, it's about a certain mystical transformation, involving many divine and unexplained aspects, not fully describable by words alone.

Of course.

In the boundless universe, there are always some exceptionally special opportunities.

They have the potential to help open the spiritual sea.

For instance, 'Extreme Sea Essence Liquid' is one of them, but its primary function is pain relief, and its assistance with the spiritual sea is much weaker.

The Extreme Sea Essence Liquid is, after all, just a Third Tier Upper B level opportunity.

"Typically speaking."

"A Third Tier Upper A level opportunity is bound to aid in breaking through to the Fourth Break," Jiang Ye thought to himself, "However, it's likely to be found in the third Star Ring."

As he pondered, suddenly.

"Hmm?"

Jiang Ye felt something stir in his heart and opened his personal information panel.

"Wow~" A holographic map projection appeared.

"The map has updated?" Jiang Ye's expression shifted, "It's marked the locations and maturity times of all the opportunities in region 3001?"

Jiang Ye was taken aback.

These were not present on the previous map.

Why did it suddenly update now?

"The battles will likely become more intense." Jiang Ye's gaze flickered slightly.

Previously, everyone was unaware of the specific locations of opportunities and could only explore randomly.

But now? The maturity times and locations of the opportunities have been marked.

The likelihood of Jiang Ye encountering alien race geniuses would significantly increase.

Quickly.

"Opportunity locations." Jiang Ye browsed through the map.

In an instant.

His gaze focused on a section of the map in the southeast.

"Black Cloud Mountain Range, Earth Spirit Marrow."

"Third Tier, Upper A?" Jiang Ye held his breath.

The second Star Ring has revealed a Third Tier Upper A!?

This was far beyond Jiang Ye's expectations.

Originally, Jiang Ye thought an Upper A level opportunity could only be gained in the third Star Ring.

But now?

"Could the third Star Ring possibly have Fourth Tier opportunities?" Jiang Ye couldn't help but imagine.

However, the third Star Ring was still some time away.

It wouldn't open for another two months.

Jiang Ye turned his attention back to the map before him.

"In the entire region 3001, there's only this one Upper A level opportunity."

"Maturity time is in three days?" Jiang Ye's eyes flashed, "Looks like many will head there."

Three days is enough time for all the geniuses in region 3001 to reach 'Black Cloud Mountain Range.'

Jiang Ye pondered briefly.

Just a few seconds later.

"To Black Cloud Mountain Range!"

"Compete for the opportunity." Jiang Ye made the decision decisively.
