Chapter 341 - 341: Reward Based on Merit
The journey from New Hetuo Star back to the encampment took 15 cosmic days.
However, there was no sense of urgency during the exploration mission.
There was no need to constantly monitor the military camp’s supernet radar.
Everyone could finally relax.
However, Ju Bairuo, who pursued perfection in the mission, remained in the main control position to prevent any accidents.
With him around, Wang Ye felt reassured.
Yan Sanqi quickly entered the cultivation room to cultivate.
“I’ll leave it to you. See you in 15 days.” Wang Ye greeted Ju Bairuo and entered his cultivation room.
Looking at the tacit understanding between the two, Ju Bairuo smiled elegantly and did not mind.
Now, he was starting to like a boss like Wang Ye.
It allowed him to display his talents.
Not caring about anything was like caring about everything.
Not only did Wang Ye give him considerable freedom, but he was also very reliable at critical moments.
He took the lead to survey the planet and wipe out the Super Star level demons and devils. He did not hesitate at all when it came to important decisions…
It made him feel at ease.
“It’s not bad to have such a captain.” Ju Bairuo didn’t realize it either. Unknowingly…
His opinion of Wang Ye had changed.
In the cultivation room, Wang Ye opened his interface.
A great harvest!
From the 330 million potential points obtained from the Soul Ape Tribe’s territory to the ocean of New Hetuo Star on the last day.
In the end, he closed with 556,800,000 potential points.
It was quite shocking!
It was ten times more than what he had gained on Pipino Planet!
“Let’s start with the dual cultivation technique,” Wang Ye aimed at the two top-rank evolution techniques.
The increase in strength was the most basic and the most immediate.
At present, the training speed of both warriors and ability users has slowed down.
Every cosmic day, the progress was only a little over 1%.
Of course, it was much higher than the other Dark Energy level warriors in the cosmic.
However, it was a little slow for him, who had long been used to quickly increasing his strength level.
Activate upgrade!
[Do you want to spend 100 million potential points to increase the stage of the Thunder Ancient Evolution Technique?]
[Yes.]
[Do you want to spend 100 million potential points to increase the stage of the Primeval Universe Evolution Technique?]
[Yes.]
Both of them had upgraded!
An endless stream of high-dimensional cosmic energy surged into his body.
At the same time, his strength increased rapidly.
The top-rank evolution technique had been upgraded stage, bringing about an all-round sublimation!
Level six Dark Energy level warrior, 67%!
Level five Dark Energy level ability user, 75%!
“My cultivation speed has nearly doubled, and my efficiency has increased greatly.” Wang Ye practiced the evolution method and was very satisfied.
It wasn’t far from reaching the next level.
This was especially true for Dark Energy level warriors. They would soon be able to break through the second threshold and reach the seventh step!
It allowed the life form to complete its evolution!
“If everything goes smoothly, I’ll be able to fuse in new Whitewheel Oblivion Armor fragments and more Whitewheel Origin the next time I return to the black realm.” Wang Ye had an extreme desire to increase his strength.
In the human cosmic, strength came first!
Being born in a low background did not mean that there was no way out.
However, if one was weak, they would die.
“Next stage, 1 billion potential points,” Wang Ye looked at the requirements for the fifth stage of the two top-rank evolution techniques.
There was no hurry.
The next step was to increase his combat strength!
He had 356.8 million potential points left.
It was quite abundant.
[Thunder Fusion Technique, Fourth Stage to Fifth Stage.]
[Battle Domain, Fourth Stage to Fifth Stage.]
Consuming 50 million potential points.
In the space of consciousness, Wang Ye quickly assimilated the two.
With steady growth, his combat prowess improved in all aspects, devoid of any weaknesses.
Control of the battle domain directly influenced the potency of the Space-lock Battle Domain.
The Thunder Fusion Technique stood as his current pinnacle combat prowess.
Close combat capabilities were doubled!
Onward!
[Spatial Control, Fifth Stage to Sixth Stage.]
[Whitewheel Origin Intent, Second Stage to Third Stage.]
Consuming 28 million potential points.
These two leaned more towards cultivation.
Spatial Control formed the foundation of the great path of space, a gateway to comprehending any advanced path of space, including its usefulness in battle.
As for Whitewheel Origin Intent, it leaned towards control of the Whitewheel Origin, providing a slight enhancement to combat prowess.
Wang Ye hadn’t touched upon the ‘Dao’ existence within the origin intent itself.
Remaining potential points: 278.8 million!
Wang Ye had a plan in mind.
Final upgrade!
[Do you want to spend 200 million potential points to upgrade the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle to the next stage?]
[Yes!]
In the space of consciousness, Wang Ye transformed into a Kui cattle, cultivating and comprehending the heavenly and earthly realms.
The final stage of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle was the deepest and most powerful stage, faintly touching upon the path of the cosmos, harboring the mysteries of cosmic beasts.
Though he hadn’t reached that level of existence, the mere advancement in saber intent was astonishing.
Peak saber intent!
Swoosh!
Returning from the space of consciousness, Wang Ye held the dual blades, fully integrating all six senses.
As if six fragments had fused into one, converting the comprehension of individual saber intents into a collective understanding.
Consciousness, body, and saber, all merged.
Driven by saber intent, the image of the Kui cattle manifested in his mind.
Transformed into a Kui cattle, Wang Ye instinctively wielded the war blade, moving it subconsciously, drawing close to heaven and earth, concealing the cosmic path.
Although it was very vague, the execution of the saber technique seemed to flow as if it had naturally existed, much like an innate harmony.
Repeating the movements, Wang Ye entered a state of selflessness.
The accumulated experience from the exploration mission and the saber intent’s comprehension surged forth, evolving into an unstoppable saber technique…
Six Intents of the Kui Cattle Saber!
Seven cosmic days later, the saber technique was complete!
Wang Ye continued refining the details of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle Saber technique, immersing himself in its practice.
On the tenth cosmic day, mastery was achieved.
Fifteenth cosmic day, perfection!
“This is my limit.” Wang Ye sighed.
He had spent fifteen cosmic days crafting the saber technique, incorporating everything he possessed into it.
He opened his interface.
He did not possess the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle saber technique.
This was because, fundamentally, it was an evolution of the Kui Ox Six Intents.
Different individuals could, based on their understanding of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle, create distinctly unique versions of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle saber technique.
Countless variations, each one distinct.
Yet, the common thread was the saber intent.
“When my life level increases or my comprehension of the saber deepens, my physical strength grows, and if I even touch the hidden Heavenly Dao within the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle, the power of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle saber technique can be further enhanced!” Wang Ye was acutely aware.
However, at this current stage, he had already reached his limit.
The plus symbol flickered after his consciousness descended onto the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle.
[Do you wish to spend 1.5 billion potential points to break the limit of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle?]
[Yes!]
[Insufficient potential points.]
What did “limit break” mean?
The seventh intent?
Or the complete Six Intents of the Kui Cattle saber technique?
Wang Ye wasn’t certain.
Yet, he knew that at his current stage, having reached the limit of the Six Intents of the Kui Cattle saber technique, his combat prowess was exceptionally formidable.
Even without unleashing the white origin of thunder, merely relying on his saber technique…
He had already surpassed Yan Sanqi!

Allwolf N0.3.
“Cosmic jump successful.”
“We are about to arrive at the Azure Mountain Milky Way Army encampment.”
The Al’s voice echoed.
Wang Ye and the other two exchanged smiles.
The first exploration mission had concluded successfully.
Rumble.
Allwolf N0.3 descended onto the Azure Mountain Milky Way Army encampment.
This repurposed energy planet, once a temporary Hetuo Planet, was now formally named the Azure Mountain Milky Way Army encampment.
Wang Ye could discern the transformations occurring on this energy planet.
Countless starships were entering and departing.
Numerous 10,000-soldier starships, laden with troops, departed from the encampment, bound for the New Hetuo Planet.
The entire encampment radiated a unified will to fight, with soldiers and commanders displaying high morale, fully prepared for battle.
“We’re about to engage in war with the demon race,” Wang Ye remarked as he disembarked from Allwolf No.3, flanked by Ju Bairuo and Yan Sanqi.
Even without gathering intelligence, he was well aware that their discovery of the New Hetuo Planet was not exclusive.
At the very least, there were still demons, and possibly even devils, who might intervene.
Judging from the timeline, it seemed that both their side and the demons discovered the New Hetuo Planet at around the same time.
However, the New Hetuo Planet was situated northeast of the Wutata Galaxy, closer to the Hetuo Galaxy.
The demons, located far away in the Autuo Galaxy, would need more time to gather their forces and arrive, making them significantly slower than the Azure Mountain Milky Way Army.
Therefore, the current advantage lay with the Azure Mountain Milky Way Army, allowing them to reach New Hetuo Planet ahead of others.
The Azure Mountain AAilky Way Army, having just retreated from the devil forces in the Yongshi Galaxy, was determined to give their all and wipe away the shame.
They proceeded to the martial arts field at the encampment.
“We’re probably the last group of personal guards to arrive,” Ju Bairuo remarked.
“The hero returning in triumph naturally makes the final entrance,” Wang Ye chuckled.
All teams had returned simultaneously, but since they were already in the Wutata Galaxy, their journey was naturally the longest.
Clang!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
As they moved forward, soldiers stationed there brandished their weapons, creating a resonant clang.
The imposing atmosphere covered the battlefield, exuding the essence of iron and blood.
At this moment, the martial arts field was surrounded by soldiers at the Dark Energy level and cosmic-level, forming a dense and countless outer circle. They encircled the personal guards and special forces in the middle.
Wang Ye raised an eyebrow.
At the forefront of the martial arts field, General Xu stood resolute, accompanied by other myriad generals.
Wang Ye spotted the other teams of the Xu Wolf Guard and the army commanded by General Xu assembling on the battlefield.
Above General Xu, an imposing figure covered in armor wielded a pitch-black giant hammer, emitting a terrifying aura that surpassed even Wang Ye’s Whitewheel Oblivion Armor.
A single strike from the pitch-black giant hammer could shatter an entire star.
The dominant presence spread across the martial arts field, marking the arrival of a true king.
Senior General Ke Yuanba!
Tribune!
“Well done, Xu Wolf Guard!” Senior General Ke’s stern gaze swept across the scene, and his thunderous voice resonated through the martial arts field.
All eyes turned towards Wang Ye and his two companions, who had joined the Xu Wolf Guard, making them the immediate focal point.
Wang Ye keenly felt various kinds of gazes.
There was admiration, envy, and even a sense of competition and unwillingness.
Yet, the predominant sentiments were goodwill and joy.
This was because the discovery of the New Hetuo Planet meant substantial rewards for every exploration team, 10,000 battle credits.
This wasn’t just an individual achievement but a collective effort of the entire exploration team.
“We can begin,” Senior General Ke declared with an icy glare.
“Rewards for the exploration mission in the Hetuo Galaxy will be distributed based on merit!” The strategist beside Senior General Ke stepped forward.
“Mission progress, battle credit rewards, a tie for first place…”
“Xu Wolf Guard, third team, step forward!”
