Xu Jingming and Gu Shan finished their discussion and chatted about matters of interest over food and drinks.
“Junior Brother, what help did Redeye get from you?” Gu Shan drank as he asked. “The Demon Vanquishing World is only a virtual world. What’s there to keep him attached? Could it be a matter of love?”
Xu Jingming looked at his senior brother in surprise.
“It looks like I was right.” Gu Shan smiled. “I can’t think of anything else other than feelings when it comes to the virtual world.”
“I didn’t say anything.” Xu Jingming immediately clarified.
“I can vouch that you didn’t say anything.” Gu Shan chuckled. “But usually, you, Redeye, and Monina can spend more time together.”
“Oh?” Xu Jingming expressed his puzzlement.
“The two of them know each other in reality,” Gu Shan reminded. “Redeye has quite a background—the kind that’s the best across the entire cosmic human race. Monina’s identity and background should only be slightly inferior to Redeye’s; they are far superior to the rest of us. When you become an Origin lifeform in the future, Redeye and Monina should be of great help to you and your civilization.”
Gu Shan was about to become an Origin lifeform. Even so, he believed that this junior brother of his was worth making friends with.
“The best across the cosmic human race?” Xu Jingming asked softly. “Is it related to those three?”
Gu Shan nodded gently.
Xu Jingming was shocked. Redeye has such a background?
The three Paramount realm experts behind the Primordial Research Institute, Eternal Academy, and Spacetime Island undoubtedly had the highest status in the entire cosmic human race. The three of them had existed for extremely long periods, and the three advanced cosmic civilizations had their support.
There were also differences between Paramount realms. About 20 Paramount realms had been born in the long history of humans, but only these three remained alive today.
From the legacies they created, they far exceeded the Paramount realms that had passed away.
“After becoming an Origin lifeform, we will also have many responsibilities,” Gu Shan said. “We have a long lifespan, and we are the only ones capable of carrying the numerous responsibilities our homeworld’s civilization requires of us.”
“Yes.” Xu Jingming nodded. If he became an Origin lifeform, he would have to shoulder many of Earth’s heavy responsibilities.
With his dazzling glory, Earth would experience a renaissance. If he was mediocre, Earth would be greatly affected.
When Xuan was close to the end of his life, his homeworld’s civilization was very uneasy and terrified.
“Let’s talk about your Senior Sister Moyu,” Gu Shan said amid drinking. “As you know, your Senior Sister Moyu established 12 sects in the Demon Vanquishing World. From the manuals of the 12 sects… your Senior Sister Moyu has accumulated a lot of knowledge in the Primordial Star Conjecture. Once she becomes an Origin lifeform, she will most likely become a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform in the future.”
Xu Jingming exclaimed in surprise, “Amazing.”
For example, the Oohook Star Alliance was composed of 129,826 galaxies. It had two intermediate cosmic civilizations and more than 980,000 basic cosmic civilizations, but it only had hundreds of Lv. 9 Origin lifeforms and three Lv. 10s.
Considering that Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms had longer lifespans, the ratio of Lv. 9 to Lv. 10 was less than 1%.
…
Senior Brother Gu Shan and Xu Jingming chatted into the night. They broached many topics and also talked about some factions in Primordial City.
“Those factions in Primordial City are also very willing to invest in us,” Gu Shan said. “If we encounter trouble in reality, we can use the few factions I mentioned previously. They have been operating for hundreds of millions of years and are well-known.”
Xu Jingming nodded. “Thank you, Senior Brother.”
“We’ve finished the alcohol. It’s time for me to leave.” Senior Brother Gu Shan got up. “Also, Heaven Demons are the most valuable things in this Demon Vanquishing World! When refining a Heaven Demon’s obsession for the first time, you have to be careful. You have to guard your heart.”
“Got it. It’s all in the information.” Xu Jingming got up to send his senior brother off.
“You’ll understand after refining one once.” Gu Shan smiled and left.
Gu Shan had already left the inn and was walking leisurely on the dark street alone.
It has only been 11 years since he joined the Primordial Research Institute, but my junior brother has undergone a tremendous change. Gu Shan sighed inwardly. Look at all my junior brothers and sisters. In terms of talent, this junior brother is number one.

The next morning, Xu Jingming left the inn and strolled around the city.
Senior Brother told me to work harder and subdue more demons. It’s best if I can lure out a Heaven Demon. Night fell, and Xu Jingming enjoyed a feast alone in a restaurant. But I’ve been walking around and observing everything the entire day, yet I haven’t discovered a single demon.
As expected of the state capital—even the demons are careful. Oh, this fish is really succulent. Xu Jingming ate the cooked fish happily. There was one good thing about the virtual world—it had all kinds of delicacies.
Just as Xu Jingming was enjoying the delicacies, in an area only about a kilometer away—
There was a quiet garden here.
In the hall.
The white-robed man, Mijia, sat cross-legged at the head of the table. There were people sitting cross-legged on both sides below.
“The state capital is now rife with danger,” Mijia said. “For safety, it’s best for Demon Vanquishers from the Holy Light Sect to leave the state capital. Those who aren’t willing to leave need to be more careful and keep a low profile.”
“The Heaven Demons hide in the shadows and repeatedly attack high-realm Demon Vanquishers. Ordinary Demon Vanquishers like us should be relatively safe.”
“What’s there to be afraid of? At most, I’ll establish a new account with 100 million cosmic dollars!”
“Haha, you’re right. It’s only 100 million. Moreover, we shouldn’t be that unlucky. Heaven Demons won’t target us fourth and fifth-realm Demon Vanquishers.”
