I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 835 - 833: The Entire Universe is in Competition

In just a few minutes, they reached the area surrounding the light beam, which had a diameter of over a hundred meters. People were continuously walking into the light beam and then disappearing from sight.

"This is quantum transmission technology," Ireel explained to Zhang Menglong, "Most Level Three and all Level Four and above civilizations have achieved this technology. Its effective transmission range is about 1000 astronomical units. Beyond that distance, the energy required for transmission becomes unbearable for ordinary people, and large transmission stations are needed."

"Is this what you meant by the space jump points between star systems?"

"Exactly." Ireel nodded.

The seven of them stepped into the light beam together, and with a rollercoaster-like sensation, they emerged from the light beam on another planet. Zhang Menglong was using this technology for the first time and almost lost his balance, making the three young men laugh.

Level One Humans are really just Level One Humans; they haven’t even used quantum transmission technology. It’s a mystery how he managed to get the Shayana sisters to actively engage with them.

"Awesome!" Zhang Menglong marveled at the technology, wondering how much longer Earth would need to develop to reach this technological level.

"Don’t be fooled by how powerful it looks; the energy consumption is astounding," Ireel said. "Do you see the artificial star at the center? All the energy in this area should come from there, powering the entire expo. But actually, energy is the cheapest resource; the cost of creating an artificial star isn’t much."

Compared to the somewhat deserted docking port, this planet was bustling. It was as if they’d stepped from the outskirts of a city into its bustling downtown.

Zhang Menglong was also seeing such a vast variety of strange aliens for the first time. In fact, most carbon-based life forms are very similar to humans, at least in body shape, with heads, bodies, hands, and feet.

Of course, there were also those with three heads and six arms, or with fierce fangs or deathly faces.

A person with a crystalline translucent body walked past Zhang Menglong, leaving a trail of crystal-like substances on the ground.

"Could that be a silicon-based life form?" Zhang Menglong speculated. "In Earth’s scientific system, silicon-based life forms are still theoretical. This truly made Zhang Menglong take several more glances."

"Heh, once you see more, you’ll know. Silicon-based life forms are actually quite common," Ireel laughed, "In the Universal Alliance, carbon-based life forms make up about 90%, while silicon-based life forms are about 5%. There are even gaseous, liquid, and spiritual life forms."

"This Vast Thousand Worlds is truly full of wonders," Zhang Menglong said, curiously observing the surroundings like a bumpkin snapping photos like crazy. If he could connect to Earth’s internet, wouldn’t he want to post on social media or start a live stream?

"Found it!" Ireel pointed to a giant building constructed from a red crystal, resembling an enormous furnace. "This is the building of the Cosmic Alchemist Association."

"There’s such an association?"

"There are numerous associations in the universe; there are at least hundreds of well-known ones for alchemists alone. But the largest is this one," Ireel said, pointing to other buildings. "Look, those around it are buildings for other associations."

"Anyone who can join the Cosmic Alchemist Association is a genuine alchemist. Just displaying their badge allows them free entry to this expo, which is essentially a trade fair for various professions. It’s said that over two million alchemists from the Cosmic Alchemist Association are here this time."

"So many?"

"Of course, even if the proportion is low, you can’t undermine the sheer size. But most are beginner alchemists; real masters wouldn’t bother with being street vendors here," Ireel said, "But it’s good, it means their prices won’t be too outrageous."

The building of the Cosmic Alchemist Association was divided into sections, each as large as a basketball court, with just one alchemist per section. They displayed their tools and materials, and all their creations were clearly priced.

"This armor looks quite nice," Zhang Menglong stopped. This craftsmanship was comparable to the Level Three and Level Four weapons unearthed in Huaxia, and according to cosmic civilization standards, it held about the tier of Level Two Martial Weapons.

"200 Cosmic Coins? So expensive?"

"It’s normal. Things here are typically priced at ten times the rate, but I tell you, while these items aren’t considered valuable in Level Four or Five civilizations, you absolutely can’t buy them below Level Three civilizations!" Ireel explained.

"True," Zhang Menglong nodded. "What’s this? A shabby ornament selling for so much? 100 Cosmic Coins?"

"This one’s also used for concealing energy," Shayana laughed, picking up the pendant-like item. "Alchemists like to craft it in various shapes, but its function is the same as Ireel’s mask."

"We could look elsewhere; we might find something cheaper," Ireel suggested.

"You’re even saving on this?" Zhang Menglong shot a fierce look at Ireel. Isn’t this the epitome of stinginess?

"You’re right!" Shayana laughed, putting down the pendant and quietly following Ireel.

"This guy sure has some luck with the ladies." Zhang Menglong didn’t quite understand; what was Shayana into? His lack of hygiene?

As they wandered from stall to stall, these items for concealing energy truly became cheaper and cheaper. Zhang Menglong laughed, "This one for 88, another for 80. Looks like the whole universe is in fierce competition!"

"Let’s get this one!" Shayana chose a beautiful little pendant, and of course, Ireel hurried to pay for it, given he was now carrying a fortune of millions of Cosmic Coins.

"What’s going on over there? It seems quite lively?" Suddenly, a commotion arose nearby.

Everyone’s attention was immediately drawn.

"Bro, what’s happening?" Ireel casually grabbed someone and asked.

"A Level Five Alchemist has arrived at the top floor. It’s said he’s been researching diligently for years. Today, a Level Six Life Form requested him to forge a Level Six Martial Weapon. If he’s successful, he can officially become a Level Six Alchemist."

"Is that so?" Ireel seemed a bit excited. A Level Five Alchemist — what’s the chance to see someone like that personally forging a Martial Weapon? If he succeeds, it would be witnessing the birth of a Level Six Alchemist. What an honor!

"Everyone is saying it, so it must be true. I have to go quickly; otherwise, there won’t be a good spot to watch!"

...

"A Level Five Alchemist?"

Ireel brought back the news, surprising everyone.

They were, at best, from a Level Three Civilization. Having a Level Three Alchemist was already quite extraordinary, but a Level Five Alchemist was someone even Level Five Civilizations would revere, not to mention for such a breakthrough event. It surely was big news.

"Let’s go take a look too," Shayana also seemed eager.

"Yeah! Brother Zhang, let’s go check it out,"

"Alright," Zhang Menglong nodded, "I’d like to see just what level a Level Five Alchemist is at."

"Listen to him talk, you’d think he’s some alchemy master!" Lidako said sarcastically. Ever since they met Zhang Menglong and the others, the trio’s presence practically disappeared. "This isn’t something just anyone can watch, you know."

"Whether I’m an alchemy master doesn’t matter," Zhang Menglong chuckled, "But if I wanted, I could probably have alchemy masters at my beck and call!"
