"Alright, there's no time to lose. I'm off to rescue them now. You two, come with me!"
After taking Kang Long from Deputy General Sun, he looked at the two burly men.
Those two burly men had the cultivation level of the eighth level of the Void God Realm, making them the highest-ranking cultivators here besides Deputy General Sun.
Immediately, the three of them picked up Kanglong and flew away from there.
Lu Ming didn't need to worry about what happened after that. He believed that Vice General Sun and his team would definitely find a way to successfully exchange the Zhengtian Army personnel and the starship.
Kang Long is the young master of Yuanluo Palace. With him as a hostage in exchange, the people of Yuanluo Palace dared not refuse.
Lu Ming and his group simply need to wait quietly.
Less than a day later, Deputy General Sun and his men returned, bringing with them more than twenty other people.
It was a success!
Lu Ming knew that Vice General Sun and his team had succeeded!
"Let's go, we need to leave Dark Star quickly. The people from Yuanluo Palace will definitely launch a massive manhunt for us!"
"I have said that," said Vice General Sun. With that, he waved his hand, and a small boat appeared in the space.
The shape of this small boat is very strange. It doesn't look like a boat, but it is somewhat similar to the flying shuttle that Lu Ming saw in Yuanlu. It is pointed at both ends and shaped like a shuttle.
It was completely black, and its surface was covered with strange runes.
Lu Ming knew that this was probably a starship, a warship capable of traveling in the universe.
Lu Ming felt a surge of excitement.
The price of such a warship is absolutely astonishing.
Because even true gods can only stay in the cosmos for a short time and cannot traverse the stars.
Only gods possess the ability to traverse the stars and travel from one planet to another, which shows how precious such starships are.
If we had one, we could freely travel through the universe.
As soon as the starship appeared in the sky,
It grew rapidly.
"All of you, come in!"
"That's what Deputy General Sun said."
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The group flashed and rushed into the starship.
Vice General Sun was the last to enter. As soon as he stepped into the starship, it transformed into a streak of light, piercing the sky at an astonishing speed.
call out!
The starship shot into space like a beam of light, quickly breaking through the atmosphere and heading into outer space.
On the walls of the starship, there are transparent crystals through which one can see the outside world.
Looking out through the crystal, Lu Ming could see that the land behind him was beginning to shrink, and soon, a blue planet appeared below.
"Is this Dark Star?"
When Lu Ming saw a planet appear before his eyes for the first time, he was deeply shocked.
Such a spectacle cannot be seen in the heavens.
The enormous Dark Nether Star slowly rotated in the cosmos, becoming smaller and smaller in Lu Ming's vision.
"Dark Star, one day I will return; Heavenly Realm, one day I will reclaim them!"
"Senior Song Mo, and other seniors who have emerged from the Heavenly Realm, one day I will set you free. Yuanluo Palace treats the people of my Heavenly Realm as medicinal herbs. One day, I will raze Yuanluo Palace to the ground!"
Lu Ming made a silent vow in his heart, his gaze resolute.
In Lu Ming's eyes, Dark Star grew smaller and smaller until it became a tiny black dot and then disappeared.
Lu Ming looked around and sighed inwardly.
Beautiful, so beautiful!
The universe and the starry sky are so beautiful, so dazzling.
And they are traveling through the cosmos.
"The primordial universe, this is the true world, vast and boundless!"
Looking out at the starry sky, Lu Ming felt his heart and mind expand.
The Celestial Realm and the Realm of Evil Gods are ultimately too small, merely minor worlds, incomparable to the Primordial Universe.
The primordial universe is vast and boundless, teeming with countless races and masters.
Those legendary powerhouses roamed the universe, living a life of pleasure and revenge, and were immortal.
A surge of heroic spirit suddenly welled up in Lu Ming's heart, and he felt his blood boiling.
One day, he too will become a powerful being who roams the universe!
Although it is still an insurmountable distance for him now, wasn't Lu Ming also an insurmountable distance from becoming a peak expert in the Heavenly Realm when he first started cultivating? But in the end, Lu Ming still reached that level.
Lu Ming felt that the primordial universe would be even more wonderful than the Heavenly Realm and the Primordial Realm.
Now, they are heading to the headquarters of the Zhengtian Army, Zhengtian Star!
Dark Star is extremely far from True Star.
One can imagine that the area of a single Dark Star is tens of thousands of times larger than the combined area of the Celestial Realm, the Primordial Realm, and the Evil God Realm.
However, if Dark Star were placed in the vastness of space, it would be nothing more than a speck of dust.
It's easy to imagine how far apart different planets are!
Even with the incredible speed of a starship, it would still take several months to travel.
Inside the starship, Lu Ming sometimes cultivated, and sometimes chatted with Tong Xi'er and Vice General Sun.
I've also learned a lot about some common knowledge about the primordial universe.
At the same time, when the people of Zhengtian Army learned that Lu Ming came from a minor world and was from the same hometown as the army lord of Zhengtian Army, their attitude towards Lu Ming completely changed, as if they regarded Lu Ming as one of their own.
Several months passed in the blink of an eye.
Ahead, a massive planet appeared before our eyes.
This planet is Zheng Tian Xing!
Zhengtianxing was named after the Zhengtian Army occupied this place; it was not called by this name before.
"What a huge planet!"
From a distance, Lu Ming felt that Zheng Tianxing was incredibly huge, at least several times the size of Anmingxing, giving people a strong visual impact.
The starship slowed down and gradually approached Zheng Tianxing.
Gradually, Lu Ming could see mountain ranges, great rivers, and even huge cities appearing on Zheng Tian Star.
Soon after, they entered the atmosphere of Zheng Tian Star. At this time, Vice General Sun put away the starship, and they appeared in mid-air.
"What a rich and powerful aura!"
Lu Ming took a deep breath and felt that the spiritual energy here was incredibly dense, more than twice as dense as that of Dark Nether Star.
This cultivation environment is truly wonderful.
"Walk!"
Deputy General Sun took the lead and flew towards a mountain peak.
Lu Ming and the others followed.
This mountain range is incredibly vast, and on it stand magnificent and grand palaces!
Powerful figures constantly flew to and fro between the mountain peaks.
"So many powerful individuals!"
Lu Ming was secretly alarmed. At a glance, he saw that most of the people he saw were at the Void God Realm, and those below the Void God Realm were a minority.
However, Lu Ming also understood that this should be the headquarters of the Zhengtian Army, so there would naturally be many experts here. There certainly wouldn't be as many experts in other places.
Soon, they arrived at a square.
"Xi'er, take Lu Ming to the living room to wait. I'll go and inform the military commander. He'll be very happy to know that a fellow villager has come!"
"That's what Deputy General Sun said."
"OK!"
Tong Xi'er nodded, then looked at Lu Ming and said, "Lu Ming, come with me, let's go to the living room!"
"good!"
Lu Ming nodded and followed Tong Xi'er.
