289: A change of identity!

As for World Lord Rank core members, they would begin to explore the universe.

The Outside Territory Battlefield, Original Star, and Three Thousand Universe Seas... one mystical region and dangerous land after another, all fiercely attracted Chen Fan.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan was filled with endless anticipation for exploring the universe.

At the same time, from the few words Yaso revealed,

Chen Fan could easily deduce that the World Lords of the Highest Beginning Mythical Region and Primitive Mystical Region, once they became Undying Spiritual Gods, would generally become Marquis-level Immortal existences.

Marquis-level Immortal?

Although very strong, this is not his end point!

A smile appeared on Chen Fan's lips, and then he put away his fantasies.

It's better to be down-to-Earth now... Universe Rank nine, Territory Lord Rank, World Lord Rank, one step at a time, can't be too hasty.

As he thought, Chen Fan's eyes became even brighter.

"Big Brother Yaso, are you a World Lord Rank core member of the Virtual Universe Corporation?"

Among the crowd, Han Li suddenly asked.

"Me!?"

Hearing this, Yaso smiled helplessly and replied, "I was once a Territory Lord Rank core member, but later..."

The past was unbearable to recall, and Yaso did not mention it again.

Everyone was also very sensible and unwilling to bring up old scores.

After a series of introductions, everyone gained a lot of knowledge!

However, so much information required time to digest.

Chen Fan leaned against a window sill, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Joining the Virtual Universe Corporation or not was indeed a dilemma.

After all, he already had the legacies and wealth of two Universe Overlords, and being a lone wolf seemed pretty good too.

In a trance, Chen Fan's memory returned to the scene when he first entered the exquisite jade tablet and met Blood Blade Venerable.

The senior's entrustment still echoed in his ears—

"This chaotic realm is too mysterious and complex. What you need to do is constantly become stronger, stand at the peak of the universe, and then you will be able to find everything you want."

"Strive with all your might to enhance your strength, expand your influence and foundation, until you stand at the pinnacle of this universe..."

Looking at the background outside the window, which resembled a vast sea of blood, Chen Fan murmured softly:

"Strive with all your might to enhance your strength, expand your influence and foundation, until you stand at the pinnacle of this universe?"

"I, it seems, already know what to do!"

Having figured this out, Chen Fan suddenly felt enlightened.

Even a Universe Overlord, in the face of the Virtual Universe Corporation's terrifying strength and foundation, was still an incredibly small existence.

Who is stronger and who is weaker, one thought reveals all.

As for the matter of freedom, he left it entirely to Yaso to worry about.

So he chose—

To join the Virtual Universe Corporation!!!

"Big Brother Yaso, I agree to join the Virtual Universe Corporation!"

Chen Fan looked at Yaso, without any hesitation.

"But there's one thing I must make clear first: the corporation must ensure the safety of my home planet," Chen Fan said truthfully.

"That's absolutely no problem. Even if you are no longer the Galaxy Lord, the Virtual Universe Corporation will find a way to prioritize the safety of your home planet," Yaso said directly.

"Hmm, that's good."

Then, Chen Fan, Ma Liang, Thunder God, and the others exchanged glances.

"If you join the Virtual Universe Corporation now, even as a Level 3 elite, I will find a way to get you an S-rank bloodline evolution agent!"

"Level 2 elites and Level 1 elites will receive SS-rank bloodline evolution agents!!"

"Lord Yaso, what obligations do we need to undertake after joining the Virtual Universe Corporation?"

Thunder God looked at the blue-clad youth in front of him, "We can't just enjoy the benefits, can we?"

Hearing this, Yaso did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.

"You are all Cosmic-level martial artists now, and have already passed the long training period. Currently, your biggest tasks, besides comprehending domains and getting started with Origin Laws, are actually very few."

"Furthermore, you have all completed the probationary mercenary assessment. Next, you only need to complete a few simple tasks, and there will be no other tasks for the next hundred years, but—"

Yaso's tone suddenly became heavier: "If you can cultivate a clone, the Universe Genius Battle forty-five years from now will be your biggest task!"

Universe Genius Battle!!

Chen Fan, Ma Liang, Thunder God, Hong, and the others looked at each other, then nodded simultaneously.

This Genius Battle was indeed something they had always yearned for.

The management conditions Yaso offered were not overly strict and were within their acceptable range.

Moreover, the trouble they caused in the World Lord World this time was huge, with too many World Lords involved, which made Chen Fan worried.

People die for wealth, and birds die for food.

Who knows which crazy World Lords might find Earth's coordinates and take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack? This was a major hidden danger.

Even for potential threats, Chen Fan would take precautions!

Therefore, they all agreed to join the Virtual Universe Corporation.

Firstly, for the safety of Earth, they needed a large tiger skin to deter petty villains.

Secondly, with Yaso, an old acquaintance, serving as an internal deacon of the Virtual Universe Corporation, there shouldn't be too many problems.

Isn't the saying 'it's easier to get things done when you have connections in court' exactly about this?

"I agree!" Hong replied first.

"Me too," Thunder God echoed.

"And me," Ma Liang naturally refused to be left behind.

"Count me in."

"..."

With each cheerful agreement, the smile on Yaso's face grew wider.

"Good, very good!"

"Welcome everyone to the Virtual Universe Corporation. You are now internal members of our Virtual Universe Corporation's Black Dragon Mountain branch, under my jurisdiction.

These are some rules. Please take a look first, and if there's anything you can't accept, we can discuss it further." Yaso pointed to a large screen displaying various elites.

The screen switched, and various rules, responsibilities, and obligations all appeared on the screen.

"So that's how it is!"

"I didn't expect the internal members to be treated so well!"

"Free use of the Slaughter Arena, no time limit, I like that!"

"..."

Exclamations occasionally came from the crowd, and Yaso watched the young people with a smile.

He recalled that when he first joined the Virtual Universe Corporation, the scene was exactly the same as now.

"I will send you emails regarding matters and tasks."

Yaso earnestly reminded them:

"However, there's one thing you must remember: after joining the Virtual Universe Corporation, you cannot join other large cross-Universe Country forces. Everyone must keep this in mind!"

"Hmm, we know," Chen Fan and the others replied in unison.

They were very clear about the principle that a servant cannot serve two masters.

The most important thing for internal members of the Virtual Universe Corporation was loyalty, and joining other large forces was absolutely forbidden.

"You cannot join some large forces, but ordinary internal forces like 'North Dragon City' or 'Qianwu Dojo' are no problem," Yaso added.

"You are new internal members of the Martial Arts Department. The most important thing is to cultivate and cultivate again. It is estimated that there will be no other tasks for the next twenty years."

"As for the bloodline evolution agent, Chen Fan, give me the coordinates, and I'll find someone to send it over."

"Okay, thank you, Big Brother Yaso. It's still the same coordinates as last time."

"Hmm." Yaso nodded.

"Next, it's time to sign the contract and change your identity. Everyone, follow me."

Then, Yaso led everyone to the Virtual Universe Corporation branch on Black Dragon Mountain Island in the Virtual Universe.

Two hours later, all procedures and formalities were completed.

"Congratulations, you have now become internal members of our Virtual Universe Corporation and have completed your identity transformation."

"Regarding your battle armor and weapon rewards, a link will be sent to each of you later. Just pick them out and submit, and I'll handle everything else."

Having recruited so many talented elites at once, Yaso was in a very good mood, his face flushed with joy.

"Thanks," Chen Fan smiled.

"You're welcome. If you have any questions, feel free to communicate," Yaso also said with a smile.

"Naturally!"

After some conversation, Chen Fan led everyone out of the Virtual Universe and returned to Qiulong Star.

"Now, let's go see my residence on Qiulong Star."

Chen Fan suggested.

"Okay, I've wanted to see Fan-ge's new home for a long time."

Han Li and Fang Yuan looked excited.

Everyone else also had a look of anticipation.

"Let's go," Chen Fan waved his hand.

"Depart."

"Let's go, to see the new home."

"..."

Just like that, the group swiftly headed towards Chen Fan's residence on Qiulong Star...
