Chapter 1 The Devil Subduing World

Having finished reading the information about the Devil Subduing World, the night was already deep.

"So, there are so many dangers in refining devils in the Devil Subduing World?" Xu Jingming understood everything after reading it and closed the light screen.

"Master, there is a video you can watch," the Yuanchu Battlesuit's voice sounded in his mind.

"A video?" Xu Jingming wondered.

Whoosh.

A video appeared on the light screen in front of him. In the video, a silver-haired Caucasian was humbly flattering an official of the Blackmoon civilization.

"I have always admired the Blackmoon civilization and look forward to becoming a citizen of the Blackmoon civilization," the silver-haired Caucasian said humbly. "I wonder when I can officially immigrate to the Blackmoon civilization?"

"Jialle, I can feel your loyalty."

The Blackmoon civilization official sat there, drinking fine wine, and said leisurely, "But staying in the Blue Star civilization, you can be of greater use."

"I understand."

The silver-haired Caucasian nodded repeatedly. "With the strength of the Blue Star civilization, it can't compete with the Blackmoon civilization at all. Many Blue Star people admire the Blackmoon civilization! We all think... the Blue Star civilization will become an affiliated civilization of the Blackmoon civilization! Even tens of thousands of years later... the Blue Star civilization will be completely dissolved and integrated into the Blackmoon civilization!"

"Haha." The Blackmoon civilization official laughed. "Your judgment is correct. The Blackmoon civilization garrison will stay for 60 years. Such a long period of penetration... in culture, technology, and all aspects, the Blue Star civilization will eventually become an affiliated civilization of ours."

"But there are still many stubborn old men," the silver-haired Caucasian said. "But with time, I believe more and more Blue Star people will turn to the Blackmoon civilization."

"This requires you to exert your strength."

The Blackmoon civilization official said, "All the contributions you make will be recorded by us."

"About immigration..." the silver-haired Caucasian began. "How about this?"

The Blackmoon civilization official smiled. "We can sign an immigration order for you in advance! But the exact time of immigration will be set thirty years from now. How about that?"

"Good, good, good." The silver-haired Caucasian's eyes lit up. "I will definitely go all out to serve my civilization, 'the Blackmoon civilization.'"

Xu Jingming silently watched everything played in the video, and finally, the video ended.

"This was just discovered by monitoring today," the Yuanchu Battlesuit's intelligent voice sounded.

"The Blackmoon civilization has been in my home planet for less than a year," Xu Jingming said with a complex expression. "Yet many people have already secretly turned to the Blackmoon civilization! Jialle is right, as time goes by, more and more people will turn to the Blackmoon civilization."

"Master, what are you going to do?" the Yuanchu Battlesuit's AI asked.

"What can I do?"

Xu Jingming said, "The identity of an outer member of the Yuanchu Research Institute cannot be exposed! And my friend, Tiano, is unwilling to protect the Blue Star civilization. Even if I ask him to show up and intimidate the Blackmoon civilization a little..."

"I guess the Blackmoon civilization would be frightened and immediately withdraw its garrison, completely abandoning the Blue Star civilization," Xu Jingming said. "Once the Blackmoon civilization garrison leaves, this piece of fat that is the Blue Star civilization will probably attract other vultures."

"Yes, the Blackmoon civilization, as the most powerful civilization in the 12th star region of the Wugou Star Alliance, their dispatch of a garrison is a declaration of ownership to all parties," the Yuanchu Battlesuit's AI also said. "With their garrison here, the Blue Star civilization will not have other dangerous troubles. Once they abandon this place... the situation of the Blue Star civilization may be even worse."

Xu Jingming's eyes were cold: "For example, space pirates!"

The universe is vast, and there are also many criminals!

Space pirates plundering life planets is a common occurrence in the universe. Xu Jingming experienced the sixth planet test in the mysterious place, and the last test... was the arrival of space pirates, who slaughtered the Blue Star civilization!

"The Blackmoon civilization is a member of the universe's human civilization and must abide by the laws of the Universe Human Alliance," Xu Jingming said softly. "No matter how greedy they are, they have to work within the rules. Slowly penetrating and assimilating will take a long time before the Blue Star civilization completely submits to it. It may take tens of thousands of years for the Blue Star civilization to disintegrate and completely integrate into the Blackmoon civilization."

"Let's be patient for now."

Xu Jingming made such a decision.

His 'Yuanchu Research Institute outer member' identity cannot be exposed. If it is exposed, he is finished! If alien races from the universe attack, killing Xu Jingming while destroying the Blue Star civilization is very normal.

"My hometown is very weak. In the foreseeable short term, I am the only opportunity for the rise of my hometown civilization." Xu Jingming understood this. As long as he focused on the evolutionary path, he would hopefully become a ninth-level source life in hundreds of years.

Such a young ninth-level source life can completely turn the Blue Star civilization around!

This opportunity is something that many primary civilizations crave but cannot obtain.

"Let's just endure them." Xu Jingming gently tapped and turned off the video in front of him.

Since it is weak, it should know the survival rules of 'weakness'.

The Blue Star civilization should be glad that...

They have a powerful hope!

"The greatest contribution I can make to the Blue Star civilization is to become a source life," Xu Jingming said as he got up and walked towards the house.

Virtual World Network, Xu Jingming's personal space.

Whoosh.

A figure came here. It was the 'Red Pupil' senior brother in the form of a child. He was wearing loose robes, lying sprawled on the sofa, and smiling: "Little brother Wu Ming, you've finally contacted me."

"Senior Brother Red Pupil," Xu Jingming said. "I'm preparing to enter the Devil Subduing World. You said to contact you before entering."

Senior Brother Red Pupil sat up straight and said seriously: "I have something to trouble you with, Junior Brother Wu Ming."

"Please speak, Senior Brother," Xu Jingming said politely.

They were all of the Yuanchu Star Conjecture lineage and were all from the Hunter Cosmos Domain. The eight of them were naturally a small group within the Yuanchu Research Institute. As long as it was within his power, Xu Jingming was naturally willing to help.

Senior Brother Red Pupil sat up straight, pondered for a moment, and then said: "You haven't decided where to be born in the Devil Subduing World, have you?"

"Not yet," Xu Jingming said. "But among the nine empires of the Devil Subduing World, I still hope to choose one that looks similar to me. I'm not used to those with three eyes or winged humans."

"Mm."

Red Pupil nodded. "I hope Junior Brother Wu Ming, you will be born in the Qing Kingdom, Chiyun Prefecture, within the territory of Cheng'an Prefecture in the Devil Subduing World. After you are born, please help me find someone in Cheng'an Prefecture!"

"Find who?" Xu Jingming said.

"She is a member of the Qi family in Cheng'an Prefecture, named Qi Xiao, and should be fifty-one years old this year," Red Pupil said. "The Qi family is one of the leading families in Cheng'an Prefecture. Qi Xiao was also a fifth-realm devil subduer twenty years ago. As long as she is in Cheng'an Prefecture, you should be able to find her easily."

"Senior Brother, are you saying... she might not be there?" Xu Jingming asked.

Red Pupil was silent for a moment.

"Twenty years ago, she returned to Cheng'an Prefecture. As for whether she is still there now, I'm not sure," Red Pupil said. "But she is a member of the Qi family, and the Qi family should know where she is."

"Understood," Xu Jingming nodded. "Senior Brother, don't worry, I will do my best to find her. I will contact you again if there are any developments."

Red Pupil nodded; "After you find her…"

Red Pupil opened his mouth, hesitating for a long time.

Xu Jingming was slightly stunned.

"After you find her, just say…" Red Pupil hesitated again and again, and then said, "Just directly give her my Virtual World Network contact information! Say it's Red Pupil's contact information!"

"Just give her the contact information? Nothing else?" Xu Jingming asked.

"Mm."

Red Pupil said.

"Okay, Senior Brother, don't worry, I will also inform Senior Brother after I find her," Xu Jingming said.

"Thanks," Red Pupil smiled.

Although disguised as a child, the 719-year-old Red Pupil's smile had a strange charm at this moment.

"Since you're helping me, I don't have anything to repay you with," Red Pupil said. "You should know that in the Devil Subduing World, devil subduing secret methods are difficult to obtain."

Xu Jingming nodded: "I've checked, there are three ways to obtain devil subduing secret methods. One is to join a devil subduing sect or a devil subduing family to learn the devil subduing secret methods. The second is to purchase them in the Virtual World Network, but the secret methods purchased are generally very ordinary. The third is to join the government, but you must be subject to government constraints."

"Every devil subduing secret method has a creator and is subject to copyright restrictions," Red Pupil said. "The Universe Human Alliance still pays attention to copyright protection."

Xu Jingming nodded.

In the Virtual World Network, many kinds of knowledge can be bought. Like when he was still a planetary life, he bought the upper volume of *Hua Guang*.

"I have stayed in the Devil Subduing World for over six hundred years and have accumulated some experience," Red Pupil said. "I will give you all the devil subduing secret methods I have collected that are more suitable for our Yuanchu Star Conjecture lineage."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a full thirty-two thick books appeared in front of him.

"Many of the outer members of our Yuanchu Star Conjecture lineage who have entered the Devil Subduing World have created secret methods suitable for themselves over time. These thirty-two secret methods are among the best," Red Pupil smiled. "I have money, so I bought a lot of techniques back then."

Have money?

Saying that he has money in front of another outer member of the Yuanchu Research Institute! It seems that this Senior Brother Red Pupil is unusually wealthy.

"Devil subduing secret methods of the Yuanchu Star Conjecture lineage cannot be found outside," Red Pupil said. "But remember, they cannot be spread externally. I have the authorization to spread them, but you do not. If you spread them... that is infringement!"

"I understand," Xu Jingming nodded.

Infringement is generally severely punished. He naturally wouldn't commit it.

"Don't forget the matter I asked you to do," Red Pupil instructed.

"Don't worry," Xu Jingming smiled.

Red Pupil nodded. He very much believed in 'Junior Brother Wu Ming's' ability to handle things! Because any outer member of the Yuanchu Star Conjecture lineage is incredibly capable.

"You will definitely be very satisfied with the devil subduing secret methods I gave you," Red Pupil said with a smile as he got up and took his leave.

After Senior Brother Red Pupil left, Xu Jingming read all thirty-two devil subduing secret methods again and completely memorized them.

"Everything is ready, it's time to go to the Devil Subduing World," Xu Jingming gently tapped his finger and selected the Devil Subduing World.

Create an account...

Confirm!

Deduct 100 million universe coins!

"Birthplace, choose Qing Kingdom, Chiyun Prefecture, within the territory of Cheng'an Prefecture." Xu Jingming confirmed the location. "Age 20 years old, healthy body with no disabilities."

The humans in the Devil Subduing World generally have a lifespan of about a hundred years. Xu Jingming felt that 20 years old was pretty good. Too young, he wouldn't have the power to move freely, and too old... wouldn't be of much use.

"Height, weight..."

Xu Jingming entered the conditions one by one, constantly narrowing the selection range.

"After entering so many conditions, there are still 19 candidates?" Xu Jingming randomly selected one of them.

"Confirm!"

"Descend into the Devil Subduing World!"

Xu Jingming transformed into a ray of light and entered the Devil Subduing World.

The Devil Subduing World has a total of nine empires, each with vast territories and hundreds of millions of people. The empires are separated by endless oceans.

Qing Kingdom, Chiyun Prefecture, Cheng'an Prefecture, Bai County.

Bai County is a county town with a population of two to three hundred thousand and is quite prosperous. The Chen family in the county has been running a medicinal herb business for more than a hundred years and is deeply rooted. It can be considered one of the leading families in Bai County.

Inside the Chen family's mansion, in a small courtyard.

The Chen family's second son, Chen Qi, sat there, motionless, with tears in his eyes.

"Starting tomorrow, you will get out of the Chen family!"

"You're so old! You don't have any ambition at all. You go out and make a name for yourself, don't come back."

"Where is the money my mother left me? Give it to me, I'm going out!"

"Your mother gave it to you? If I give it all to you now, won't you waste it? I'll see how you do. If you have any prospects, I'll give you some. If you don't have any prospects? Giving it to you would be a waste!"

"That was one hundred taels of silver that my mother left me when I was eight years old, before she died."

"Your mother's is also mine! Chen Qi, listen to me! What I give you is yours! If I don't give it to you, you won't have a single cent!"

"With just this one hundred taels of silver, you want me to go out alone and fend for myself? Don't come back until I make a name for myself? Who doesn't know that there are dangers everywhere outside? How many merchants die outside every year? Father, you are my father! How can you be like this?"

"I'm doing all this for your own good! When you grow up, you'll understand my good intentions."

"Father, your appearance makes me sick! You use the family's money to eat, drink, and have fun. It's fine if you take my mother's dowry, but the money my mother left me before she died... you also occupy it all. You want me to go out and fend for myself, and you say it's for my own good? Why don't you go out and make a name for yourself, why don't you go out and fend for yourself?"

"You're rebelling!" "Slap."

Chen Qi sat there, the dialogue with his father earlier constantly repeating in his mind. He didn't care about that slap, but his only relative in this world, his own father, Chen Shi'an, treated him like this, which broke Chen Qi's heart.

His only relative.

His own father!

When he was eight years old, his mother passed away. Later, his father married a second wife, who gave birth to a younger brother and sister.

Chen Qi had always been careful at home, fearing to offend his father and fearing that his stepmother would dislike him. He slowly grew up in this environment and reached the age of 20. Now, he was waiting for his father's coercion, to be kicked out of the house?

"Mother, I really miss you so much," Chen Qi sat there, tears flowing down.

Silently, a consciousness descended.

Chen Qi was slightly stunned. He sat there for a moment before wiping the tears from his face.

Xu Jingming felt Chen Qi's memories and quickly understood everything: "Even wanting to swallow the money that his ex-wife left for his son before she died, and forcing his eldest son to get out of the house? Truly shameless."

"I have come to the Devil Subduing World." Xu Jingming looked around. "Everything starts from the Chen family in Bai County."

Inside a large house in the Chen family.

The Chen family's old patriarch sat there, his triangular eyes gleaming, looking at Chen Shi'an in front of him.

"Uncle," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

"That eldest son of yours, Chen Qi, has he been kicked out?" the old patriarch's voice was cold.

"I'll chase him out tomorrow," Chen Shi'an immediately said.

The old patriarch nodded: "Chen Qi's maternal family, the Wu family, has caused a great disaster. Those who were imprisoned were imprisoned, those who fled were fleeing... Our Chen family has only achieved such a family business after more than a hundred years. We cannot be burdened by the Wu family and must draw a clear line."

"I understand, I understand," Chen Shi'an nodded.

"Well, I know you are a good boy, Shi'an," the old patriarch nodded. "I don't want to see that Chen Qi in the Chen family again before noon tomorrow. Tomorrow night in the ancestral hall, I will also gather the clan members and remove Chen Qi's name from the family tree!"

"It should be," Chen Shi'an nodded. "We can't harm our Chen family because of one Chen Qi."

The beginning of the new world is a bit slow, please forgive me.
