333: Chapter 333 The true stage for the strong, an uninvited guest!

Regarding Li Fan's confusion,

Ming Yan did not keep him in suspense.

"The universe is vast beyond measure, expanding and giving birth to new Seat Domains almost every moment. These Seat Domains initially have no life, existing in a state of chaos. But as time slowly passes and they evolve, life forms eventually emerge within them. Once these life forms come into contact with cultivation, they can trigger a Civilization Assessment and enter the Great Universe.

"Therefore, no one can truly say how many Seat Domains exist within the universe.

"And the Supreme Seat Domains are the first eighteen domains to have evolved within the Great Universe. These eighteen domains possess territories of unimaginable vastness, where cosmic primordial energy is incredibly dense, and all manner of heaven-and-earth spiritual treasures are limitless.

Furthermore, precisely because they were the first to evolve, they are home to the universe's most ancient families and the most powerful beings. As you know, the Cosmic Cloud Company was born within these Supreme Seat Domains. Most of the top-tier immortals you've heard of also originate from there...

...

In short, that place is the true stage for the universe's strongest!"

Ming Yan gave a lengthy explanation.

Li Fan couldn't help but become entranced as he listened.

After Ming Yan finished his introduction, Li Fan felt his blood boiling with excitement, itching to set off for that place immediately.

After hearing Ming Yan's description, his feeling was:

Just as Ming Yan had summarized in the end,

This Supreme Seat Domain was indeed the true stage for the universe's strongest!

He absolutely had to go there!

And in fact, he would be going there very soon.

Because the headquarters of the Cosmic Cloud Company was located within these Supreme Seat Domains. Since he had been selected for the qingyun plan, he was naturally going.

Thinking of the qingyun plan, he almost forgot to mention it to Ming Yan.

"By the way, Senior Ming Yan, after the Inheritance Competition ends, I might not have time to go to the Star Sea you mentioned to search for that secret treasure..."

Li Fan straightforwardly told Ming Yan about the qingyun plan.

After hearing this news, Ming Yan didn't show much emotion, as if he had already anticipated that the Cosmic Cloud Company would take notice of Li Fan.

"It's fine, there's no conflict. If there really is a conflict, you can go to the Cosmic Cloud Company first to participate in that qingyun plan or whatever. Their resources are still quite good. After it's over, you can go find the secret treasure I buried; it won't be too late."

Ming Yan spoke indifferently.

Hearing this, Li Fan felt much more at ease. It was good that there was no conflict.

At the moment, he had too many resources to choose from; he would have to tackle them one by one.

"Alright, you continue cultivating this secret technique. I'm going back into slumber."

With that, Ming Yan sank back into slumber.

Li Fan shrugged, took a deep breath, and pulled his thoughts back from the so-called Supreme Seat Domain.

Right now,

what he needed to do was rapidly increase his strength, secure first place in the fourth stage, and obtain the immortal inheritance!

Things like the Supreme Seat Domain, the qingyun plan, and the Star Sea secret treasure were all matters for later.

Thinking about the fourth stage of the Inheritance Competition,

Li Fan couldn't help but feel curious.

There were only about half a month left until the fourth stage began, yet no information about it had been released at all. It was shrouded in mystery.

However, no matter how curious Li Fan was, he could only wait until the fourth stage began to find out.

...

Elsewhere,

at the Wushan Seat Branch of the Cosmic Cloud Company,

a spacecraft bearing the insignia of the Cosmic Cloud Company Headquarters slowly appeared in the air above the plaza.

The spacecraft hatch opened.

A young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes walked out of the spacecraft.

"Sang Gan of the Wushan Seat Branch pays his respects to the Inspector!"

"May I inquire about the reason for your visit, Inspector? Whatever the matter, just give the order, and we will spare no effort."

Sang Gan, along with a group of the branch's leaders, appeared on the plaza, bowing and saluting the young man.

That's right.

The young man before them, like Ai Xin, had the emblem of an Inspector on his uniform.

This was also an Inspector!

However, it was clear this was not the Inspector assigned to Wushan Seat.

"Hmm, you people from the Wushan Seat Branch are quite well-mannered."

"But I don't have any official business. I'm just passing through and thought I'd drop by to see an old friend."

"Ai Xin, what's this? An old friend comes to visit, and you won't even show your face?"

The young man glanced at Sang Gan, quite satisfied with his attitude.

Immediately after, his gaze turned toward the depths of the branch.

In the next second, Ai Xin appeared on the plaza from within the void.

Ai Xin and the young man looked at each other for a few moments before both couldn't help but smile.

This undoubtedly made Sang Gan and the others below breathe a sigh of relief.

Good.

It seemed the two were indeed old friends, not old rivals.

If they were old rivals,

and they started arguing, their position would be very awkward.

"Jiang Ling, who would have thought a hundred years have passed since we last parted? I heard you're currently in charge of the Tianming Plan. Is the recruitment almost finished?"

"Not yet, but I have recruited a batch of pretty decent seedlings. Look, they're all on the spacecraft. Ai Xin, I heard you're responsible for the qingyun plan. That recruitment must be incredibly difficult, probably requiring a lot of effort."

"Indeed, but fortunately, headquarters only gave me five quotas. If I travel to enough places, there's still a chance. And I've already found one so far."

"Oh? You've already found one that quickly?"

...

Soon, Ai Xin and the young man began catching up.

The two made their way to the branch's reception hall.

From accompanying their conversation, Sang Gan could tell that the two were likely former classmates or something similar.

"Ai Xin, this Li Fan you mentioned does sound quite impressive. It seems the Inheritance Competition is a good place to find promising seedlings." After hearing Ai Xin's description of Li Fan, a trace of curiosity appeared on Jiang Ling's face.

Then,

Jiang Ling changed the subject.

"By the way, the fourth stage of the Inheritance Competition hasn't started yet, right? How about this: I'll let the youngsters on my spacecraft come here to build some confidence and participate?"

"But don't worry, if any of them achieve rankings, it will all be voided. It won't affect the rewards or progress of the Inheritance Competition."
