465: Whereabouts leaked

Although he had already made up his mind, condensing the heart of the heavenly sea was still extremely time-consuming for the Heavensea God-King.

Therefore, he could only promise Lin Tianwei that the points would be deducted first, and the goods would be delivered within one month.

Lin Tianwei had great faith in the Heavensea God-King's integrity, so he naturally did not refuse this kind of pre-payment, post-delivery transaction.

What's more, points were originally a product of the Law Arena, and if the Heavensea God-King wanted to renege, he truly had no way to stop him.

After resolving the major issue of points, the subsequent matters became much simpler.

With the remaining tens of millions of points, Lin Tianwei casually exchanged for some resources that could replenish his energy, thus completing this super shopping spree.

Watching his points completely depleted, Lin Tianwei finally exited the Law Arena with satisfaction.

He did not notice, however, that a pair of malicious eyes had already fixed on him, and had even determined his current location through his access information.

Leor looked at the coordinates he had finally managed to capture, his eyes filled with greed.

As one of the senior maintenance personnel of the Law Arena, he was able to obtain the specific coordinates of all Law Arena access personnel in his sector.

This was also a necessary means to provide essential services to the Cosmic Beasts accessing the Law Arena.

Under the dual suppression of the Heavensea God-King and the Law Arena, Leor would not normally harbor any ill intentions or leak the coordinates of these participants.

However, the enemy offered too much, directly swaying the not-so-firm-willed Leor.

Or rather, it swayed most of the Law Arena workers, but Leor was lucky; Lin Tianwei's offline location happened to be within his jurisdiction.

A secret method, a secret method that could guarantee 100% achievement of Immortal-level, held an inherent allure for Leor, who had been stuck at Domain Lord Level 9 for countless years.

Perhaps he had always said that he had given up, given up on the unrealistic idea of achieving Immortal-level,

But when such an opportunity to achieve Immortal-level was presented before him, he still wavered.

Especially since the cost of achieving Immortal-level this time was so low, only requiring the simple betrayal of a Cosmic Beast's location information.

For Leor, who possessed extremely high authority in the Law Arena, this was simply a piece of cake.

So he ultimately completely succumbed, leaking the location where Lin Tianwei had just exited the Law Arena.

If Lin Tianwei didn't run fast enough, this rising genius might just fall here.

At least, that's what Leor thought... On a mysterious planet, a string of characters representing "Law Hunting Ground" in the Origin Universe language was prominently written on an ancient building.

Law Arena? Law Hunting Ground?

Similar names made it hard for Cosmic Beasts not to associate a relationship between them, yet no Cosmic Beast would truly believe that the so-called Law Hunting Ground specialized in hunting the Law Arena's existence.

No other reason, the reputation of the Law Arena resounded throughout the entire Origin Universe, and no Cosmic Beast would believe that any organization could contend with it.

After all, standing behind the Law Arena was the super God-King, the Heavensea God-King.

However, such an incredible thing truly happened in the Origin Universe; the Law Hunting Ground was indeed an organization specifically created to hunt the Law Arena.

Its hunting target, of course, could not be the Law Arena itself; after all, as long as the Heavensea God-King was alive, no Cosmic Beast would dare to do such a foolish thing.

They would only hunt those powerful Talent Bodies with names and numbers in the Law Arena.

Once they were targeted, they either joined the Law Hunting Ground, contributing their strength to hunt the geniuses emerging from the Law Arena.

Or they died with resentment, their flesh and blood completely turning into withered bones wandering in the universe.

If they were lucky enough to even leave behind bones.

It was precisely through this extremely terrifying method of poaching that most of the Cosmic Beasts who had once shone brightly in the Law Arena became prey for the Law Hunting Ground.

Instead, some unknown Cosmic Beasts survived and eventually grew stronger.

This also proved the saying: a genius who can grow up is a genius; otherwise, he is merely a slightly more advanced cannon fodder.

The scene shifts to the Law Hunting Ground command center, where a Cosmic Beast named Ginas was intently staring at the large screen in front of him.

The large screen was vast, but displayed very little information, only a single coordinate—a coordinate representing Lin Tianwei's former location, just transmitted by Leor.

This coordinate was located in the Gulang Star Region, but not in the main area of the Gulang Star Region; perhaps this was just a temporary stop for the other party.

Considering the speed of a normal Cosmic Beast, Ginas immediately abandoned the idea of going to these coordinates to encircle Lin Tianwei.

By the time the Law Hunting Ground's army arrived at the coordinates, they would likely only find emptiness.

However, Ginas was not in a hurry, because he knew that Lin Tianwei would eventually leave here and head to the main city of the Gulang Star Region.

For no other reason, even for the large amount of resources Lin Tianwei had just exchanged in the Law Arena, he would have to make a trip to the main city.

The act of directly air-dropping items was indeed cool, but it was also extremely energy-intensive; even the Law Arena could not continuously do such a luxurious thing.

Only the heart of the heavenly sea could enjoy such treatment.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, physical resources exchanged needed to be picked up by the Law Arena participants themselves at the nearest market.

Depending on the type of resources exchanged, the location for exchange also varied.

Equipment and weapons were exchanged at the West Wall Equipment Center, Slaves at the Lotus Slave Market, and Talent scrolls at the Day Tiger Merchant Guild.

But if what Lin Tianwei exchanged were cultivation resources, the greatest possibility was to go to the Dawn Merchant Guild for exchange.

So Ginas only needed to deploy a large force to these locations, and he would inevitably stake out Lin Tianwei's whereabouts.

Thinking this, a flash of inspiration struck Ginas's mind, and he conceived a plan targeting Lin Tianwei.

An invisible sound began to transmit, and soon a Cosmic Beast named Piert walked in, respectfully standing before Ginas, awaiting his command.

Despite Piert's extreme humility in front of Ginas, he was by no means simple; he had once been a potential SSS-level participant in the Law Arena.

However, after being targeted by the Law Hunting Ground, in order to survive, he ultimately chose to betray the Law Arena and the Heavensea God-King, becoming a lackey of the Law Hunting Ground.

The collar engraved with the Law Hunting Ground's mark on his neck was the best proof.

Taken as a Slave?

The Law Hunting Ground would not be willing to do such foolish and wasteful things to these former geniuses.

What the Law Hunting Ground wanted to do was to put shackles on them that would only restrict their souls and freedom, but not their potential.

This so-called Law Hunting Ground collar was not much different from a control chip.

Once the commands of the Law Hunting Ground were violated, the power of the collar's explosion was enough to instantly kill the wearer.

Without hesitation, Ginas directly issued the command, saying:

"Piert, a new potential participant has appeared in the Law Arena, named Lin."

"Lin is not simple; not only is his potential the highest SSS level, but he also comprehended the power of a domain early on, reaching the peak of the Law Arena and gaining the qualification to participate in the final trial."

"This time, the target is Lin; such a powerful potential participant must be nipped in the bud."

"According to the intelligence obtained from the Law Arena, Lin's strength in the real universe should be Cosmic Level 7."

"Considering that the opponent is, after all, a super genius, he is bound to be invincible at the same level, and can even fight across levels."

"For this operation to hunt Lin, I allow you to deploy ten Domain Lord Level powerhouses."

Deploying ten Domain Lord Level powerhouses just to hunt a mere Cosmic Level 7 Cosmic Beast?

Piert's eyes were filled with disbelief, feeling that this was simply too much of a fuss.

After all, the Cosmic Beasts participating in the hunt were not ordinary Cosmic Beasts; each one was a former super genius from the Law Arena.

How could they accept lowering themselves to do such an absurd thing, bullying a Cosmic Level 7 Cosmic Beast by over-leveling and over-numbering?

As if seeing the defiance in Piert's eyes, Ginas, for once, began to explain, saying:

"This operation is indeed a bit overly elaborate."

"But if you don't kill the snake, it will harm you; our Law Hunting Ground is not some upright organization, why play extreme operations when we can directly crush the opponent?"

"What's more, to subdue such a genius, you must use maximum violence to crush them, so that the other party cannot even think of resisting."

"Execute my plan immediately; do not question my arrangements."

"If there's a chance, bring Lin back."

"A Cosmic Beast capable of reaching the top of the Law Arena rankings, with a little training, will be another useful subordinate."

As Ginas spoke, a dangerous aura rose from his body, scaring Piert into instinctively avoiding Ginas's terrifying eyes.

Not only that, but the moment Ginas finished speaking, he also felt an extreme pain, the pain of his soul being completely pierced through.

His collar, besides being able to self-detonate, also had many advanced functions.

One of the most commonly used functions was to extend Claws that could pierce the soul, allowing these Slaves controlled by the collar to experience what it meant to suffer pain deep within their souls.

Although he was in immense pain, Piert dared not make any struggling movements.

If he were to offend Ginas because of this, he would truly suffer endless hardships.

He could only barely resist the pain originating from his soul, respectfully saluting Ginas, saying:

"I will obey Lord Ginas's command; I will surely complete the mission."

Piert had regretted countless times, regretting that for a moment of survival, he had allowed himself to become this ghostly appearance.

But he had no other choice; under the control of the collar, he didn't even have the right to commit suicide.

Perhaps his only way to vent was through every hunt.

Inflicting the same pain he endured upon those Cosmic Beasts who, like him, had once achieved great accomplishments in the Law Arena... Looking at Kai, who was constantly changing before him, Lin Tianwei knew that the other party might not be able to complete this evolution for a while.

It seemed the energy contained within the silver mechanical cube was even stronger than he had imagined.

However, this was actually a good thing for Lin Tianwei.

This meant that he would also be able to obtain more fragments of the Talent: Core Code (Transcendent).

He only hoped that after he successfully completed his collection, the full form of this Talent would not disappoint him.

After a slight thought, Lin Tianwei decided to put Kai into the Tiger Tooth Space.

He had other things to do, so he naturally didn't have time to stay here indefinitely.

Retrieving the resources he had exchanged in the Law Arena was Lin Tianwei's top priority.

Although those resources were not many, they could alleviate some of Lin Tianwei's pressure, allowing the energy of this Body of Talents to become abundant once again.

Although he didn't have a mount, Lin Tianwei's flying speed was not at all slower than when he was piloting Kai.

However, the Gulang Star Region was, after all, a Star Region, completely different from the Extremely Cold Universe where Lin Tianwei had lived before.

The most obvious differences were mass and gravity.

Objects of the same size here possessed even more terrifying mass, as if this were a completely upgraded version of the Extremely Cold Universe.

Under the mutual attraction of immense mass, this Star Region also possessed gravity even more terrifying than the Extremely Cold Universe.

Those weak Cosmic Beasts who could barely survive in the Extremely Cold Universe might be instantly torn to shreds by this terrifying gravity here.

Star Level 1—this was the minimum requirement for survival in the Star Region.

This also implied a conclusion: Cosmic Beasts living in the Gulang Star Region, even newly born young beasts, possessed Star Level 1 strength.

Although the Gulang Star Region had greater mass and extraordinary gravity,

For Lin Tianwei, whose strength had already reached Immortal-level 9, it had no impact whatsoever.

He still maintained an extremely fast speed within the Gulang Star Region.

Before long, Lin Tianwei arrived near the closest Transfer Station to him.

Here was his destination, the Dawn Merchant Guild, which was where Lin Tianwei would collect the resources he had exchanged.

It must be said, this place truly lived up to its name as the Gulang Star Region; just the Transfer Station alone seemed capable of dwarfing the Transfer Station of the Extremely Cold Universe.

Not only was it larger in scale, built with stronger materials, capable of accommodating more Cosmic Beasts, but its functions were also countless times more powerful.

The so-called parking fees were even completely abolished.

The process of collecting resources went very smoothly; after Lin Tianwei stated his destination, he was instantly teleported to the entrance of the Dawn Merchant Guild.

After explaining his purpose, Lin Tianwei quickly received a storage wristband.

Although this storage wristband looked unremarkable, its internal space was enormous, and it contained the resources Lin Tianwei had just exchanged from the Law Arena. (End of Chapter)
