Chapter 4054: The greedy Qiu Ren (1)
In this competition, Qiu Ren had already gained the upper hand. The gap between him and the second place was so big that it was almost impossible to catch up.
Just looking at the current results, Qiu Ren was already sure to win.
However, he wasn’t satisfied. Instead, he had a higher goal and never even considered human cultivators as his competitors.
They were not worthy.
If it wasn’t for the sake of leveling up his secret skill, Qiu Ren wouldn’t even bother to waste time and play this poor acting game.
His haughty nature made him fearless. Other than the God city that he couldn’t see through, he didn’t put the human race in his eyes at all.
He didn’t even want to cover up some of the less obvious flaws, allowing the human cultivators to guess.
It was like playing the game of opening the door to find the Tiger. The doors were opened one by one, looking for the Tiger’s room. When the right room was found, the Tiger would also start to choose people to eat.
Qiu Ren was that Tiger. If the human race didn’t want to be devoured, they had to behave themselves.
The other purpose was to test the divine city.
He wanted to see what the divine city would do if they discovered his disguise.
Of course, this was the worst case scenario. If possible, he still wanted to get the complete upgrade secret skill.
During the process of upgrading, he would also launch a reverse deduction to grasp the true construction and operating laws of the divine city.
Snatching was the most straightforward method, but it could not be carried out rashly. At the very least, they had to determine the true strength of the divine city.
He had to confirm whether this upgradable divine City Secret technique was an inheritance or a self-created one. If it was the former, it would be easy, but if it was the latter, he had to be extra careful.
To be able to create such a secret skill, the foundation of the divine city was definitely not simple. It was best not to provoke it.
Standing at the top of the volcano divine city, Qiu Ren’s eyes were cold as he watched the human cultivators return victorious.
He was the one who had been pulling the strings behind the scenes, forcing groups of foreign races to come and die.
For his own experiment, it was reasonable to sacrifice these small and medium-sized alien races.
Those alien races were originally cannon fodder, and now that they were forced to come here to sacrifice themselves, they could play a greater role.
In order to achieve his goal, Qiu Ren was willing to pay any price, even if it meant sacrificing his own race.
For an existence like him, his sense of belonging to his own race was getting weaker and weaker. If it wasn’t for the restraints of the chaotic space-time, he might have already drifted away.
However, Qiu Ren had encountered a new problem.
As the divine city continued to upgrade, the functions it possessed became stronger and stronger, but its appetite also became bigger and bigger.
The current sacrificial model could no longer meet the needs, and the divine city’s upgrade had encountered a bottleneck for the first time.
As the person in charge of the volcanic divine city, he naturally knew where the bottleneck was. The flesh of ordinary foreign races was losing its effectiveness.
It would require the flesh and blood of a stronger cultivator to be absorbed and transformed, and at the same time, a powerful manager would be born.
This powerful manager of the divine city had a special ability that allowed him to control the nomological power of the world.
To control the rules, one was a God. This was an undeniable fact.
If the fact that upgrading a God city could give birth to a God was made public, people would definitely think that it was crazy.
Qiu Ren didn’t doubt that this was the result of his deduction, which was also the reason why he was so persistent.
Perhaps such gods had some special restrictions, but they still had powerful means.
Using living beings made of flesh and blood to create such a divine city and God was a sure-win business.
It was not difficult for Qiu Ren to sacrifice some high-level cultivators.
It would be better to use human cultivators, but it would also be fine to use foreign cultivators. There was no difference between the two.
During this period of time, what Qiu Ren had to do every day was to crack the God city.
A man’s heart would not be let down. He already had some insight and needed to test it out immediately.
With a single thought, a wisp of smoke condensed and turned into another Qiu Ren.
Qiu Ren’s real body turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.
To a Divine Spirit cultivator, teleportation in the chaotic space-time also carried risks.
However, it was only a risk, unlike the narrow escape of ordinary cultivators. The mastery of rule power allowed gods to be like fish in water, but the turbulent waves were too strong.
In the blink of an eye, they had passed through the human border, and the no-man’s land formed by the war was quickly left behind.
Cities and tribes of all sizes appeared in front of him one after another, which meant that Qiu Ren had already entered the hinterlands of the alien races.
Qiu Ren continued to move forward and finally entered a huge Valley. This was also a special secret realm that few people knew about.
There were many foreign cultivators guarding the secret realm. They were from the Moro race, one of the five major races.
The Moro race looked like Yakshas, with two heads, one big and one small, and six arms.
On normal days, the extra heads and arms could be put away, and they looked no different from humans.
Many alien races thought that the Mara race was a branch of the human race, but they had already evolved.
However, the Mara race didn’t agree with that. They insisted that they didn’t have the lowly genes of the human race. Instead, they called themselves a branch of the Daluo divine race.
He had been trapped here because he had mistakenly entered chaotic space-time. He had no genetic relationship with the human race.
There was no way to verify whether it was true or not. In any case, whatever the Mara race said was true.
Other than the Moro race cultivators, there were also a large number of foreign races imprisoned in the valley. They were secretly captured and escorted here.
After Qiu Ren had obtained the secret technique of the God city, he had ordered the construction of this secret base and had gone around to capture scattered alien races.
Scattered alien races like this were far more in number than expected. They were all unlucky people who had been dragged into the chaotic space-time and were bullied without anyone to rely on.
Occasionally, there would be powerful races that would appear in the chaotic space-time on a large scale. At most, there would be tens of billions.
Every time they encountered such a situation, the five great alien races would team up to suppress it and ensure that the other party was in control.
It would be great if they succeeded, but if they failed, the five alien races would have new members.
However, up until now, the five great alien races had been standing tall and had not fallen. The ruling structure was simply unbreakable.
The longer the rule was maintained, the more stable the position would be.
With Qiu Ren’s arrival, the valley immediately became lively.
He found an empty space and threw out a red ball of light. His spiritual power entered it.
This ball of light wasn’t simple. It was a copy of the divine city that Qiu Ren had made after analyzing it.
Before he had done it himself, Qiu Ren had already simulated it in his soul sea tens of thousands of times to ensure that there would be no problems.
It didn’t matter if there was a problem. Qiu Ren could bear the price of failure.
As a Supreme expert of the mo Luo race, he had the confidence to try anything, and he could bear the risk of failure.
With a meticulous operation, a blood-red light burst out, and an altar appeared in front of him.
When Qiu Ren saw this scene, he revealed a look of joy.
The first step had been successful, and the altar had been successfully built. Although there were some differences in appearance, it was within his expectations.
The external form of the divine city could be changed, but the most important thing was the inner core, which was a rule of exchange through sacrifice.
As long as this rule was adhered to, the sacrifice could be carried out smoothly, and the result desired by the sacrificer could be obtained.
Knowing this, Qiu Ren chose to experiment.
“Offer the sacrifice.”
With Qiu Ren’s order, groups of foreign races were brought over, knocked unconscious, and thrown onto the altar.
Such a brutal operation was completely out of the ordinary. It was obvious that Qiu Ren wanted to use the method of a live sacrifice to crazily test the divine city.
