Chapter 531 The Commerce Hub

"You dirty hairless monkey," said a humanoid hyena, looking at a group of people. He spat in front of them before continuing: "You humans disgust me. You"re lucky the trial does not allow fighting before the compet.i.tion begins."

After saying that, the hyena walked away to see a handsome young man with beautiful long silver-gray hair.

"Another disgusting hum- -"

He did not finish his words before he saw a pair of cold eyes staring at him, sending chills straight down his soul. He snorted coldly before walking away. The hyena soon arrived at his mansion.

"Boss, I just berated a human and humiliated him."

A giant black tiger with red markings on its back opened his eyes.

"Oh, what did you call them?"

"I called them disgusting hairless monkeys and hara.s.sed them for over an hour." Of course, he "forgot" the human that placed the fear of G.o.d in him.

"Well, it"s not very original, and the Monkey Clan has been pressuring us to stop calling humans any words related to them. Nevertheless, you still did your duty. So, with my power granted from the Demon Supremacy Alliance, I will give you some 1000 Community Points."

"Thank you, young master Ye. With this point, I can almost exchange a Bloodline Pill to sublimate my bloodline and rise in status."

The hyena was genuinely excited. As long as his bloodline can sublimate, he can have a higher status in the alliance. He could not think of the love of his life. They had loved each other since childhood, but because she was of higher status, he could not be with her due to the laws of the alliance. However, all that will change once his status is elevated.

While the hyena was in deep thought, a humanoid rabbit entered the room.

"Young master Ye, I"ve written a new novel."

"Oh, let me see."

The giant tiger used his Divine Sense to read for a few minutes before commenting:

"Not bad. Although it is a typical novel about the years humans oppressed us countless Eras ago, you did a good job focusing on their atrocities toward the demonkind. I also like how you portrayed them as beasts with low-level intelligence and violent tendencies.

"Then there is the emphasis on the bald donkeys and their oppression of our kind through religion. Not bad, not bad."

"Young master, did you not like the ending?"

"Well, exterminating humans is a good idea, but it has been done too often. Nevertheless, an excellent novel. I"ll give you 7600 Community Points."

"Thank you, young master," said the humanoid rabbit, while the hyena was slightly jealous. It"s a shame he had no talent for writing, so he could only use the low-level method of hara.s.sing humans to get points.

"Give me your token, and I"ll add the points."

The two took out their Point Token, and the tiger added the point he promised. He then looked at them with his red pupils:

"Do you remember the DSA"s motto?"

"We will eradicate all humans and spread the supremacy of the Demon Race until we eventually rule the Endless Void," simultaneously said the rabbit and hyena with a loud voice.

"Don"t forget."

"We will never."

"Good, you can leave."

As the tiger watched the group leave, a dangerous light flashed across his eyes before closing them and continuing his cultivation.

Meanwhile, w.a.n.g Wei watched the hyena walk away and muttered: "It"s weird seeing a demon race so confident and full of himself."

After shaking his head, he headed for his destination. He soon arrived in the area where the Star Beast World"s people lived. Then, he divined which house would ensure the highest possibility of success before walking to the far corner.

He stood in front of the mansion without entering or saying anything; he knew the owner was aware of his existence through the arrays he sensed. Not long after, a woman with a stern look.

Although this woman looked like a human, w.a.n.g Wei"s True Eyes could see a shadow of an enormous giant behind her; it was her true body.

"Who are you?" she asked directly.

"w.a.n.g Wei, from the Myriad Emperor World."

She frowned after hearing this, thinking for a moment before closing the door. A few seconds later, she opened it while telling him to follow her to the living room.

Soon, w.a.n.g Wei saw a young man dressed in regular black clothes in front of a table with tea. His appearance was ordinary compared to cultivators" generally handsome and beautiful appearance. However, the unique or charming part about him was his eyes. He had eighth stars forming a circle inside his pupils.

w.a.n.g Wei knew this was not a special physique or eye technique; this was a sign that this person had cultivated a rank 8 Star Beast Body, and in each rank, he cultivated his body to the pinnacle and beyond. Only true geniuses can have the Ancient Stars Symbols in the Star Beast World.

With his True Vision, he could see the enormous being comparable to a Domain back home in size. If he had to give the latter an accurate measurement, that person"s actual body was probably as big as five galaxies.

"Fellow Daoist, my name is Mu Lei, Star Beast World, Star Lord Mountain." As he said these words, w.a.n.g Wei saw seven pillars appear on the latter"s forehead, with one of them having a star.

w.a.n.g Wei returned the salute as nine pillars appeared on his forehead, with two of them having stars.

"w.a.n.g Wei, Myriad Emperor World, Dao- -"

"Dap Opening Sect!"

"Oh, you"ve heard of us?"

"Of course, there are only two factions with two Eternal Emperors, and the other one mysteriously disappeared many years ago. Many people think they have been destroyed. So, your sect is a little famous."

"I see," replied w.a.n.g Wei as he sat in front of Mu Lei.

"Can I ask what this visit is for?" asked Mu Lei despite having calculated a few possibilities.

"I"ll be direct; I would like the Myriad Emperor World to enter business with the Star Beast World, starting with cooperation between our two factions."

Mu Lei sipped his tea, thinking about how to respond; this was one of the primary possibilities he thought of, along with forming an alliance.

"Our Star Beast World is alway looking for power communities to exchange with, so you are more than welcome."

Because of how their cultivation system was set, resources are everything to the cultivators of the Star Beast World. After all, they can swallow anything to increase their strength.

"Can I see your energy currency?" asked Mu Lei, and w.a.n.g Wei handed him an Origin Stone and an Origin Source. Mu Lei opened his mouth and swallowed the stones. His eyes lit up because he discovered an energy source he had never used before and was of very high quality.

"Do you have any Longevity resources?" w.a.n.g Wei gave him a pill, and Mu Lei did not swallow it as he previously did. Instead, he inhaled the aroma.

"This pill could increase my lifespan by another 50,000 years; not bad."

w.a.n.g Wei"s lisps twitched after hearing this; this was a perfect-quality Quasi-Emperor Pill refined by him. Typically, this pill could raise a person"s lifespan by at least 1 million years or more. But this guy said it could only give him 50,000 years of life.

"This Star Beast Body System is too radical."

"With these two products alone, you should have a small place on our market. Do you want the exchange to be only between us, or do you want to register in the Commerce Hub?"

"Commerce Hub? What"s that?"

Mu Lei looked at him strangely, "Have you guys become so reclusive that you don"t even know about the Hub?"

"I"m ashamed to say we were forced to lay low and recuperate after a few catastrophes."

"I see. The Commerce Hub is essentially an artificial world established by the Star Beast World connected to different World Communities to exchange resources.

"Before the Great Buddhist Cataclysm, the Myriad Emperor World was one of its most powerful members."

w.a.n.g Wei frowned as he had a lot of information to process. Firstly, this Cataclysm probably referred to the Absolute Beginning Emperor"s eradication of Buddhism in the Endless Void.

Secondly, he was concerned about this Hub. One of his plans was to connect all the World Communities, Heaven Will World, and their Lower Realm to exchange resources, ideas, cultures, etc.

He knew once he succeeded, he would gather a ma.s.sive amount of merit, but now, he learned one already existed. So, he decided one of the first things he would do after proving the Dao was to either take control of the Hub or destroy it.

"How many communities is this hub connected to?"

"If I remember correctly, about 150," Mu Lei replied, an answer which relieved w.a.n.g Wei. He knew there were exactly 3000 World Communities, so as long as he could expand the Hub to all of them, he would still get ma.s.sive merit.

"And has this Hub connected to the Lower Realm?"

"Of course," replied Mu Lei, making w.a.n.g Wei secretly sigh as he knew he could not use his previous plan of cheating members from the Lower Realm.

After that, the two chatted and discussed cooperation. w.a.n.g Wei decided to only trade with the Star Lord Mountain for now and wait for a while before registering with the Commercial Hub. Then, they signed an agreement.

As Mu Lei watched w.a.n.g Wei leave, he could not help mutter: "So, the rumors are true: the Myriad Emperor World is going through a rejuvenation."
