294: Chapter 293 Chaotic Star Sea, a No Man's Land of Sin

After escaping the pursuit of the Heavenly Court's army, the Golden Chariot did not maintain its money-burning top speed.

Lin Feng steered the chariot, gradually slowing down and activating the concealment Formation, silently entering a desolate and dark Star Domain.

The starlight here was dim and distorted. Countless massive meteors and shattered planetary remains floated around. From time to time, Void storms swept through, devouring all signs of life.

This was the junction of the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm, a lawless zone—the Chaotic Star Sea.

There were no Laws here, no morals, and no rules of the Heavenly Court. There was only the naked Law of the jungle. Killing for treasure was commonplace, and betrayal among thieves was a daily occurrence.

It gathered desperadoes, fugitives, defectors, evil Cultivators, and various shady underground forces from across the entire Immortal Realm.

And this was precisely the best place for Lin Feng to settle. The more chaotic a place was, the more opportunities there were for someone like him who possessed a System.

"Phew..."

Lin Feng sat cross-legged on the roof of the chariot and let out a long breath. Feeling the violent and chaotic Spiritual Qi around him, he didn't feel uncomfortable; instead, he felt a sense of familiarity.

The continuous high-intensity posturing... ah, no, combat, had left him feeling a bit exhausted. Although he had the System's support, the mental strain was real.

"System, settle the gains from this wave."

Lin Feng awakened the System in his mind. He had gambled his life on this battle; if the gains weren't high, it would be a huge loss.

[Ding! Settling the "Havoc in Heaven" campaign for the host...]

[1. Killed the Heavenly Court's Four Heavenly Kings and 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers. Gained 5 trillion combat critical hit points!]

[2. Pierced through the blockade of a million-strong army head-on. Achieved "Rampage." Reward: 2 trillion critical hit points!]

[3. Mentally struck the Seven Luminaries Immortal King, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, and the immortals of the Heavenly Court, causing significant psychological trauma. Gained extra reputation bonuses, converted into 3 trillion critical hit points!]

[4. Looted the Seven Luminaries Immortal Palace (including the uncounted treasury). Converted into 20 trillion critical hit points!]

[5. Issued a "Reverse Most Wanted Order," shocking the Three Realms. Reputation points soared through the roof. Special reward: one mysterious gift pack!]

[Deducting 10 billion consumed during the charge...]

[Current Balance: 29.79 trillion!]

Looking at the long string of jumping numbers on his retina, Lin Feng felt his breathing quicken, his heart seemingly gripped tightly by a giant hand.

Nearly three hundred trillion!

This was simply wealth surpassing a nation! No, wealth surpassing a Realm!

In the Lower Realm, a single Top-Grade Spirit Stone would make people fight to the death, but now, the resources in his hands were enough to buy half an Immortal Domain!

"I'm rich, I'm really rich this time."

Lin Feng couldn't help but rub his hands together; the thrill of sudden wealth made him want to laugh out loud. With this money, what Cultivation Technique couldn't he buy? What Medicinal Pill couldn't he afford?

Just then, the System's voice rang out again, carrying an unusual mechanical texture as if undergoing some kind of transformation.

[Ding! Detected that the host's assets have exceeded the threshold and cultivation has reached the "Grand Unity Golden Immortal" Realm.]

[System version update conditions met!]

[Version Update Preview: Divine Rank Spendthrift System Version 3.0 is about to launch!]

"Version 3.0?" Lin Feng's eyes lit up. Version 2.0 had already been incredible; what kind of tricks would 3.0 bring? "System, any new features in this update? Give me a spoiler?"

[Answering host: Version 3.0 will unlock the core function—"Myriad Realms Interconnection."]

[The host will no longer be limited to this plane and can conduct transactions, looting, and even summoning across planes!]

[Furthermore, the mall will unlock the exchange permissions for the "Conceptual-Level Armory"!]

[Conceptual-Level Weapon Preview: Dual-Vector Foil (Junior Version), Causality Glove (the snap-of-fingers kind, but only wipes out half of the mosquitoes), 100% Catching a Blade with Bare Hands Technique (Bane of Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King), Doraemon's Lies 800...]

"Hiss—"

Lin Feng gasped, feeling his teeth ache.

Dual-Vector Foil? Infinity Gauntlet?

This is freaking steering the cultivation style straight into a sci-fi movie!

Imagine, when others summon their Lifebound Flying Sword and shout "Sword, come!", I throw a Dual-Vector Foil back and turn them into a painting... that scene is too beautiful to imagine.

"But... I like it!" Lin Feng grinned like a villain.

"How long will the update take?"

[Estimated to take three days. During the update, basic functions are available, but the mall service is suspended.]

"Fine, three days it is."

Lin Feng was in high spirits. In three days, once the System update was complete, he could walk sideways in this Chaotic Star Sea, and no one would dare say a word!

"Master, the core entrance to the Chaotic Star Sea is just ahead."

At this time, Liu Ming quickly walked onto the roof to report. His expression was a bit odd, even carrying a hint of wanting to laugh but not daring to. "However... it seems we have some trouble."

"Trouble?"

Lin Feng stood up, hands behind his back, looking forward.

In front of the chariot, several black Flying Boats with hideous designs and huge skull flags blocked the path in a triangular Formation.

These Flying Boats were filled with odd-looking Cultivators. Some had bull horns, some emitted black gas, and some were simply skeleton frames. Each had a fierce gaze, holding various blood-stained weapons, staring intently at Lin Feng's glittering Golden Chariot with extreme greed.

That look was like a pack of wolves that hadn't eaten for half a month suddenly seeing a plump, juicy sheep.

"Interstellar Pirates?"

A playful smile curled on Lin Feng's lips as he gently straightened his sleeves.

"Just when I was thinking of sleeping, someone brings a pillow."

"Just when I wanted to establish my authority in this new map, someone comes to deliver a package."

"The people of this Chaotic Star Sea are truly... hospitable."
