"King Atlas, I didn't know you were a King-level Immortal. What I said earlier was a bit out of line, please forgive me."
Marquis Falconblood decisively admitted his mistake and apologized, "To express my apology, King Atlas, if you need anything, just ask, and I will do my best to satisfy you."
"As fellow Immortal powerhouses of the Human Race, I won't make things too difficult for you."
Upon hearing this, Ender looked at Marquis Falconblood, who had an eagle head and human body, and smiled, "How about this? You treat everyone here to a bottle of Blazing Heart, and this matter will be over."
"Blazing Heart… No problem!" Marquis Falconblood breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and immediately said loudly, "Serve a bottle of Blazing Heart to every Marquis-level Immortal present."
Blazing Heart is a strong liquor that feels like a burning fire in the heart after drinking it, priced at 999 Mixed units per bottle.
The Marquis-level Immortals in the bar hall had been paying attention to how 'Atlas', a King-level Immortal, would handle Marquis Falconblood's offense.
And when they heard Marquis Falconblood loudly say "Serve Blazing Heart", these Marquis-level Immortals, while secretly thinking that Ender was worth befriending, also cheered loudly.
"Oh! Marquis Falconblood is treating everyone to Blazing Heart."
"It should be King Atlas treating us to Blazing Heart."
"That's right, that's right."
Amidst the cheers of the Marquis-level Immortals, the heavy stone in Marquis Falconblood's heart dropped. Although he lost hundreds of thousands of Mixed units, in his opinion, it was all worth it.
For him, a Pinnacle Stage Marquis-level Immortal, hundreds of thousands of Mixed units was not much, and it was worth it to gain the forgiveness of Ender, a King-level Immortal!
However, thinking that these hundreds of thousands of Mixed units were gone just because of a single sentence he uttered, he couldn't help but glare at Marquis Ya Yu.
The over five-meter-tall Marquis Ya Yu, with his ox-like face, chuckled, "Thank you, Marquis Falconblood, for the treat. Marquis Falconblood is generous."
Upon hearing this, Marquis Falconblood was so angered that he immediately turned his head away, lest he become even angrier the more he looked.
"Marquis Ya Yu." Ender then transmitted his voice, "You must not tell anyone else the news that I just broke through to become an Immortal."
Marquis Ya Yu nodded slightly upon hearing this, "Atlas, don't worry, I won't tell anyone else."
After the voice transmission, Marquis Ya Yu secretly thought: "Of course, I can't tell anyone else about this. A Genius who is suspected to be Pinnacle Stage King-Level right after breaking through, how can I befriend him if I tell others?"
As early as before, when he learned that Ender was a Low Stage King-level Immortal as soon as he broke through, he secretly speculated about Ender's identity.
He first suspected that he was a Genius cultivated by the five Leviathans of Humanity, after all, only such a Genius could achieve the King-level upon Breakthrough.
But now, he highly suspects that 'Atlas' is Jiu Mengluo, the peerless Genius of the Huge Axe Dojo, and even if not, he must be a top Genius from millions of years ago.
In his opinion, only such a peerless Genius, or a top Genius who has been in seclusion for millions of years, could achieve the Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal upon Breakthrough.
In addition, he also considered whether 'Atlas''s true identity was Ender or Kedi, the two super geniuses of the Virtual Universe Company.
But considering that these two geniuses were too young, no matter how talented they were, it was impossible for them to reach the level of Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal upon breaking through to Immortal in less than ten thousand years.
"I can't guess at all, Atlas's true identity is too difficult to guess."
Marquis Ya Yu thought to himself: "Forget it, building a good relationship with Atlas now is what I should do. As for the rest, I'll put it aside for now."
Thinking of this, he said to Ender, "Atlas, do you want to go to a private room? I'll introduce some friends to you?"
"Okay."
Ender came here with the intention of making friends, so he accepted the invitation.
Subsequently, after Marquis Ya Yu contacted a few good friends in the Barracks Base, he took Ender to a private room on the second floor of the bar.
After the two left, the bar hall immediately started discussing.
"Hey, what do you think this Pinnacle stage King-Level Immortal 'Atlas' is doing in the Endless Island Secret Realm Battlefield?"
"It should be that there are no suitable resting places in the Barracks Base over at the Hongwu Secret Realm, after all, there are too many King-level Immortals over there."
"That's possible, but I'm more curious about how Marquis Ya Yu knows this Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal."
The Marquis-level Immortals chatted, all of them not believing that a Pinnacle stage King-Level Immortal would hunt and kill in the Endless Island Secret Realm Battlefield.
Seeing Ender and the other person go to the second floor, Marquis Falconblood returned to his friends, but was teased by them because of what had just happened.
"Haha. Falconblood, you really hit a wall this time, didn't you?"
"Yes, mocking a Pinnacle stage King-Level Immortal, not just anyone can do that."
"Falconblood was also lucky. His words weren't too excessive, which is why King Atlas didn't pursue it too much. Otherwise, this matter wouldn't be solved with hundreds of thousands of Mixed units."
Facing the teasing of his friends, Marquis Falconblood clicked his tongue, "It's all because of that Marquis Ya Yu, inviting a King-level Immortal powerhouse and being so secretive about it."
"If it were me, as soon as I entered the bar, I would loudly announce that I had invited a King-level Immortal."
"As long as he did that, the subsequent events naturally wouldn't have happened."
Hearing Marquis Falconblood's defense, a Marquis-level Immortal smiled, "You can't say that…"
While the Marquis-level Immortals in the bar hall were chatting.
Ender and Marquis Ya Yu arrived at a private room on the second floor and met several Human Marquis-level Immortals. After a brief introduction, they began to chat.
During their conversation, he learned that besides the Zerg camp, the Demon race camp and the Mechanical Race camp were both offering bounties for the so-called 'Cloud Vine Lord'.
According to the information they received, both major camps had offered a considerable bounty for the 'Cloud Vine Lord'. As long as one discovered and reported the Cloud Vine Lord's coordinates, they would receive military merits equivalent to killing a Marquis-level Immortal.
After drinking and chatting with a few Human Pinnacle Stage Marquis-level Immortals, Ender returned to his villa in the rest area.
...
Villa study.
"Sure enough, besides the Zerg camp, the Demon race camp and the Mechanical Race camp are both offering bounties for me."
Sitting cross-legged on the carpet, Ender thought to himself: "Offering a reward equivalent to killing a Marquis-level Immortal, but only for my coordinates, I'm afraid there are Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortals who can Space Teleportation waiting for an opportunity."
"If I hadn't obtained the 'Frost Armor', facing a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal, I would only be able to flee, but now it's different!"
Ender smiled slightly, "Once I master the 'Moon Shadow Illusion Heart Secret Method', I'll go to the central area of the Endless Island Secret Realm Battlefield to play with you."
With this thought.
He closed his eyes and began to Cultivate the Soul enslaved secret method, "Moon Shadow Illusion Heart Secret Method." The first layer of this secret method has very low Cultivate conditions, and he can Cultivate it with his will and Soul amplitude.
However, the Cultivate process was not very smooth. He attempted to Cultivate many times but failed, only succeeding after a month.
"Hoo!"
When the "Moon Shadow Illusion Heart Secret Method" was successfully Cultivated, Ender slowly exhaled, "As expected of a secret method worth 3 billion points, although the requirements for the first layer are low, it's not easy to Cultivate."
"The Soul enslaved secret method has been mastered, it's time to go to the central area of Endless Island."
Saying that, Ender got up and left the study, then exited the villa and headed towards the battle passage.
... Near Barracks Base No. 092.
The dark red prismatic Universe spaceship traveled through the Void, then gradually accelerated to light speed and entered the Dark Universe.
Inside the Shadow Dragon spaceship control room, Ender looked at the projected light screen in front of him, which displayed the Endless Island Secret Realm Battlefield map.
"Hmm… This time's target, let's set it here."
He lightly tapped his finger on the map on the light screen, pointing to the area in the central region close to the Mechanical Race camp.
"Speaking of bounties, it should be the Mechanical Race camp's King Melting Rule who first put a bounty on me. I wonder if I'll meet King Melting Rule when I go to the central area this time."
"According to the information I found, King Melting Rule often operates in the Hongwu Secret Realm Battlefield. Although he is a High Stage King-Level Immortal, with the assistance of his Mechanical Puppet army, he can briefly contend with a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal."
Ender smiled to himself, "If I can meet him in the central area, that would be interesting."
...
More than ten days later.
Endless Island Secret Realm Battlefield, central area.
Here, there are endless islands. Due to the battles between Marquis-level and even King-level Immortals, the number of islands in this Void is constantly changing.
However, there are still super large islands here, and there are three of them.
The smallest of the three islands has a diameter exceeding a hundred billion kilometers, while the largest exceeds a trillion kilometers.
Expansive Wilderness Island.
This is the second-largest of the three super-large islands, with a diameter exceeding 300 billion kilometers.
The island's environment is dominated by continuous mountain ranges, with complete or incomplete peaks within them, and smaller areas of dense forests and hilly terrain outside the mountain ranges.
Buzz!
A dark red prismatic spaceship detached from the Dark Universe and suddenly appeared above the hilly terrain of Expansive Wilderness Island.
"Activate the large detector for scanning."
Inside the spaceship control room, Ender gave the command, "Display the coordinates of allies within a billion kilometers."
As the detector scanned, there were a total of seven red light dots on the light screen, but only one blue light dot.
"Only one ally, that's a bit few."
Ender whispered, "That's right, this area is close to the Mechanical Race camp, and many Marquis-level Immortals from the Mechanical Race camp come to the central area, so the exit for Universe travel is often chosen in this area."
Marquis-level Immortals are not the apex hunters in the central battlefield of the Endless Island Secret Realm; on the contrary, they are the hunting targets of the more than one thousand King-level Immortals.
However, there are only over a thousand King-level Immortals in the Endless Island Secret Realm, distributed across a central area with a diameter of tens of thousands of light-years. This small number is like finding a needle in a haystack, with a very low probability of encountering one.
Moreover, most of the King-level Immortals in the central area are barely King-level Immortal and Pinnacle Stage King-Level, with only a few dozens of High Stage King-Level.
Marquis-level Immortals, even Low Stage Marquis-level, as long as they don't encounter a High Stage King-Level, often have a certain chance of escaping.
It is precisely because of the presence of King-level Immortals that Marquis-level Immortals are more cautious in the central area and would never be as bold as Ender, directly using Universe travel to an area close to the enemy camp.
"Compared to the islands in the surrounding Void, Expansive Wilderness Island clearly has more Marquis-level Immortals."
Looking at the light screen, Ender muttered, "There are eight Marquis-level Immortals within a billion-kilometer radius, and these eight Marquis-level Immortals haven't made a move. Are they afraid of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?"
He thought this possibility was very high, as these eight Marquis-level Immortals belonged to four major camps.
Among them, there were four Marquis-level Immortals from the Mechanical Race camp, one from the Human faction, two from the Demon race camp, and one from the Zerg camp.
"This time's target, it's you."
Ender, who was not afraid of others being orioles, pointed his finger on the light screen and selected the only Marquis-level Immortal from the Zerg camp.
Chirp!
The Shadow Dragon spaceship hatch opened, and Ender flew out of the hatch. He then stored the spaceship in his world ring, not caring if the world fluctuations would attract the attention of other Marquis-level Immortals.
Boom!
With a sonic boom, Ender stepped on the 'Shadow Shuttle' and accelerated, heading towards the Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal.
At first, his speed hadn't picked up, and he wasn't discovered by the other few Marquis-level Immortals from hostile camps. But as his speed increased, the traces he left in the air were detected by the surrounding detectors.
...
In a tree hollow of a large tree in a dense forest, a lizard-man Marquis-level Immortal with scales all over his body and a flat nose was hiding.
"This new ally is really bold, daring to rashly charge towards the Low stage Marquis-level Immortal of the Zerg camp."
The lizard-man Marquis-level Immortal clicked his tongue when he saw the blue light dot on the projected light screen heading towards the Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal, who had the worst detector.
"He's probably an alien ally from a distant Universe territory, using a low-level detector, only detecting the Low stage Marquis-level Immortal of the Zerg camp, and completely unaware that there are other Marquis-level powerhouses from other camps."
"Heh heh, a Low stage Marquis-level Immortal from the Zerg camp, openly displayed there, anyone with a brain knows there's a problem."
At this point, the lizard-man Marquis-level Immortal shook his head slightly, "Only the poor and weak or ordinary races' Marquis-level Immortals would be blinded by greed. If it were our Human powerhouses, they wouldn't do that."
...
Hundreds of millions of kilometers away.
Under a small hill.
There was a Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal with a shoulder height of over sixty meters, covered in thick armor, six legs, and resembling a saber-toothed tiger.
"A Marquis-level Immortal from another camp is coming for me!"
The Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal detected the traces left in the air through his detector and knew that an alien Marquis-level Immortal was coming for him, but due to the low level of his detector, he could not detect the enemy's specific situation.
"Daring to come at me in this situation, heh heh… he's got some guts."
Facing the Immortal from the hostile camp coming to kill him, the Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal felt no fear or worry, but rather a sense of finally having someone come to his door.
"Everyone says our Zerg camp's detectors are low-level, and I naturally know this, but I still dare to appear on this Expansive Wilderness Island, naturally, I have confidence!"
The Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal was full of Battle Intent, "Come on! Alien Marquis-level Immortal, I will make you understand that sometimes a high-level detector is not necessarily a good thing!"
With a high-spirited mindset, the Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal waited silently, while estimating the time of the enemy's arrival.
"It's now!!"
Based on the estimated time, the Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal's body rapidly shrunk, instantly shrinking to a shoulder height of eight meters.
And as his body shrunk, his Aura and pressure became more solid, skyrocketing from Low Stage Marquis-level to the Pinnacle Stage Marquis-level Immortal level!
Boom!
Dirt and rocks flew.
After shrinking his body, the Zerg Race Marquis-level Immortal, with a formidable Aura, fiercely broke through the hill!
But when he rushed into the sky, his soaring Battle Intent dissipated completely…
