Yellow Springs Planet Number 7.
The dusky yellow planet spun slowly in the pitch-black universe. It was surrounded by a ring of bright yellow starlight.
Within the ring of light, a dozen floating specks of light could be vaguely seen. They flickered with white fluorescence.
This was the planet closest to the edge of the Mother Of Pain's territory. It was also the planet closest to the Green Branch Sect.
Time passed slowly …
After an unknown period of time, a dozen faint green specks of light suddenly appeared in the dark starry sky.
The specks of light were dim at first. One might not be able to see them clearly if one did not look hard. However, after a few minutes, the specks of light grew brighter and closer.
"Whoosh!"
A crude green flying ship that resembled a flying sword tore through the dark void. It seemed to have leaped through the air and arrived near the Yellow Springs Planet.
There was a slanted transparent protective layer above the flying ship. Through the protective layer, one could see the countless dense green rune circuits. There was also a white-haired old man who sat in the middle with his hands on his knees.
The old man wore a black tight suit. His shoulders were decorated with exquisite patterns of the Green Branch Sect's green three-leaf clovers. His physique was strong and muscular.
However, the most eye-catching feature was the third pitch-black eye that was slowly opening between his brows.
This person was merely sitting in the flying ship, but he exuded a powerful aura that was as immovable as a mountain.
"Pchht."
A rectangular protrusion on the inner wall of the flying ship slowly shone with a faint silver light.
"Hiss … Elder, that's the border planet of the Mother Of Pain's territory up ahead." A calm male voice came from the silver light. It was accompanied by subtle interference and transmission noise. It sounded unusually calm.
The old man's third eye suddenly flashed with silver light.
"Everyone, get ready. Wind Formation, all of you! Fiery Spear Art! "
"Understood!" A dozen voices instantly resounded from the inner wall of the flying ship at the same time.
In the starry sky, there were a dozen green flying ships, including the old man's flying ship. Transparent ripples appeared on all of them. Silver-black balls of unstable light started gathering at their tips.
"Fire!"
A low roar suddenly exploded.
"Pchht!"
The balls of light turned into spears and shot out at the same time. The silver-black spears instantly gathered and formed a huge spear that was dozens of kilometers long.
The spear only appeared in the void for an instant before it shot into the surface of the Yellow Springs Star Body.
A black spot first appeared on the dark yellow star, and then the black spot expanded and became bigger and bigger.
Boom!!!
In an instant, the black spot exploded and turned into a large ball of silver-black flames, blasting a hole in at least one-sixth of the star.
The three-eyed old man led a dozen or so flying ships into the Yellow Springs Planet's atmosphere.
Caught off guard, the Green Branch Sect launched an unannounced attack on Yellow Springs Planet Number Seven, which was under the Mother Of Pain's command.
The flames of war burned through the entire Yellow Springs Galaxy in just a few days. There were a total of thirteen Yellow Springs Planets, and at least two of them were completely destroyed on the first day.
…
It was already the afternoon of the next day when Lu Sheng cleaned up the remaining traces of his descent and came out.
He designed a simple Constant Temperature Array by himself to maintain the temperature of his house.
Then, he went out to the small shop at the entrance and bought some ordinary materials for setting up isolation arrays.
After spending an entire night, Lu Sheng completely sealed off the small house he bought in the main city of Libra City with a Formation.
Although his Formations were no longer powerful, and the ones he set up were only ordinary Formations, they still had the ability to seal off sounds and smells.
This house cost him all the ice money he had. Lu Sheng planned to use this as his base of operations in Libra City.
Although he had joined the Red Moon Disciples, he did not have any obligations. He only had to attend the Red Moon Meeting once a month and listen to the leader of the disciples preach about the sect's rules and teachings.
A month in Libra City was 40 days. There were no major or minor months. The standard was that every month was 40 days.
On the third day after his Arrival, Lu Sheng went out on his own to gather information.
He had enough Mental Energy, but he still needed various materials for a breakthrough. The next stage of the Infinity Technique required rare materials. He would have to look for them carefully.
Fortunately, Libra City did not lack anything, but it did not lack materials. Unless they were extremely rare, he could buy them in any shop that was slightly bigger.
However, after his first Arrival, Lu Sheng had spent all the ice money he had. Moreover, the Red Moon Disciples needed money for everything. He also needed a huge amount of ice money to buy the Scarlet River Cultivation Method. Hence, he had to earn more.
Coincidentally, Libra City was near the house he bought. There was a shop that did very well. It was called the Eight Objects Tower. It sold various cultivation materials that cultivators needed.
There was a specialized information booth at the entrance of the Eight Objects Tower. It distributed important information about Libra City for free. Lu Sheng's sources of information were limited. After he discovered this place, he often came to check on the information booth's contents.
On the tenth day after his return, early in the morning.
Lu Sheng had just managed to assimilate the Instant Destruction Fist Art and the like into his main body's system when he Arrived. His martial path boundary, which had been stagnant, finally broke through to the Grandmaster tier.
Feeling refreshed, he went to the information booth that was less than 30 meters away and sat down. He drank as he browsed through the various flyers and newspapers placed at the information booth.
There were many citizens like him. However, unlike the others, the other citizens of Libra City had lived here for decades or centuries. Some of them had even lived here for centuries. They chatted leisurely and leisurely.
Even if there were people like him who bought houses and joined Libra City, there were only a few of them.
More than 90% of the people who could earn enough money to buy a house were old people who had lived here for many years.
As soon as Lu Sheng sat down, he asked the servant to serve him two cups of iced date soup. Then, he brought a stack of today's Libra newspaper and various advertising flyers and placed them on his table. Then, he began to filter through the various money-making jobs that were suitable for him.
He could not be as unbridled as he was in the outer districts in the main city. The surveillance here was extremely strict. The upper echelons were powerful. The various surveillance and security networks were extremely secure. He could not find any loopholes at all.
Hence, Lu Sheng decided to work properly and earn money to support his expenses.
"Blood Spirit Harvester: Head to the planet at the border of Libra City to harvest and refine Blood Spirits. Ten of them per month. Salary is 3,000 ice money per month. Cash will be paid once a year.
"Evil Spirit Suppression: Manpower is needed at five large-scale Evil Spirit leakage points in the city. Elites are recruited to provide support. Salary is 5,000 ice money per month. Spoils of war will be distributed according to work done.
"Thousand Dew Army recruiting …"
"White Stream Army recruiting …"
"Ella Merchant Alliance sincerely invites …"
Lu Sheng kept putting the advertising flyers aside. It was either that the salary was too low or the distance was too far. It was not convenient for him to return to the main city.
Moreover, Lu Sheng's greatest strength was his medical skills. If he could find a job that utilized his medical skills, he might be able to earn even more ice money.
"I heard that Yellow Springs Planet No. 7 was destroyed. I wonder if it's true." The idle chatter of a few citizens at the side inadvertently reached Lu Sheng's ears.
"The Green Branch Sect sure is impressive. Their sect master is a man of great talent and bold vision. Their subordinates are full of talents as well. They're still recruiting so many people every year. It'd be strange if they don't want to expand."
"That's true. They're a little too ruthless. They just destroyed a few planets just like that. I heard that one of the Green Branch Sect's three Vice Sect Masters did it himself. "
The people who were chatting were a few well-dressed young men. Their cultivation bases were not impressive. Libra City's screening requirements were extremely strict. However, the official residents who passed the screening had their families as well. Although these families did not enjoy the same benefits as the official residents, they could still stay here for a long time.
These people's cultivation bases were not impressive, and they spoke in a nonchalant manner. Clearly, they were this type of people. In truth, this type of people was the most common in Libra City.
"These Void Underworld beings have lived for tens of thousands of years. They're truly fearless. They'll attack as they please without any regard for the other party's dignity. Aren't they afraid that they'll fight to the death and start an all-out war?"
"You're overthinking it. Void Underworld beings, especially Heavenly Devils, can't even think about killing them if they can't find their Heart Worlds."
The few of them discussed the matter casually.
In the beginning, Lu Sheng found it strange. Why were these people not paying attention to the discussion through voice transmission when it was such an important piece of news?
However, when a few more customers joined in the discussion, Lu Sheng understood that this matter was not a secret. Someone had purposely leaked it long ago.
The Green Branch Sect was very far from this place. If the news could reach this place in such a short time, it was clear that there was someone behind this. No matter what the motive was, it would not be simple.
He calmed himself down and continued reading for a while. However, he still could not find a suitable job.
Lu Sheng remembered the short saber Mi Guangying gave him.
He did not use this saber when he returned because he was worried that he might run into danger if he went there recklessly.
Also, he had to look into the name of the Iron Banner Society.
However, during this period of time, it did not matter if he took the initiative to strike up a conversation or read through the various newspapers.
Nobody knew about the so-called Iron Banner Society.
He did not find a job. Instead, he heard a lot about the war between the Green Branch Sect and the Mother Of Pain.
Lu Sheng put down the advertisement in his hand. He could roughly guess what caused the Green Branch Sect to target the Mother Of Pain.
After he tricked the Eight-Headed Griffon, the Cloud Sky Pavilion and its entire planet were destroyed. There was no way the Green Branch Sect would let the matter rest. This incident was probably the catalyst. Moreover, the two sides already had many conflicts to begin with. Hence, they suddenly declared war.
However, now that the war had started, Lu Sheng was slightly worried about his kin and subordinates who were on the Yellow Springs Planet.
After sitting at the information booth for a while longer, Lu Sheng still did not find anything. He was about to get up and go back.
However, one of the employees at the information booth walked up to him.
"Mister, according to your registered information, you seem to be quite knowledgeable in the field of medicine, right?"
Lu Sheng nodded. He wanted to look for a job. He had registered at the information booth and recorded his specialties. Whenever there was a job, the information booth would assign it to someone suitable.
This could be considered as a special investment from Eight Things Tower.
"There's a job here. We're looking to recruit talents with achievements in the field of medicine. The pay is generous. If you're willing, sir, you can take a look at the requirements." The employee passed a list to Lu Sheng.
