Chapter 472: Territory

“Brother Lin Feng, let’s go down together.”

Venerable Vigil shrank his body and flew directly into Planet Vigil with Lin Feng.

“Dominus.”

“Dominus…”

Lin Feng entered the planet and realized that it had an antique style. There were cultivators everywhere, and there were very few technological things. Moreover, the people he met all addressed Venerable Vigil as “Dominus”.

!!

“Brother Lin Feng, I advocate pure cultivation, so I rarely use technological things.”

As if seeing Lin Feng’s confusion, Venerable Vigil explained meaningfully.

There were a total of 72 planets in the region occupied by Venerable Vigil. Apart from the stars, there were a large number of cultivators on all the planets, and their population exceeded 100 billion.

These hundreds of billions of people and 72 planets all fell under the territory of Venerable Vigil. In this territory, Venerable Vigil was the only ruler, just like Divine King Bemond of the Bemond Galaxy.

This was also the case for most of the regions of the North River Galaxy. Some powerful cultivators controlled their own faction and occupied many planets. They turned these planets into their territory and ruled in their own way.

These rulers were all called Domini.

The Domini were naturally differentiated into greater Domini and lesser Domini. The lesser Domini were basically just elementary planetary lifeforms that ruled over one or a few planets.

The slightly greater Domini were known as the Venerables, and basically all ruled over more than ten planets. Someone like Venerable Vigil was a Venerable, and was rather powerful among the Venerables, ruling over a total of 72 planets.

As for the great Domini, there were relatively few of them in the North River Galaxy. Every great Dominus basically ruled over 1,000 territorial planets, and they were all ultimate planetary lifeforms. In the North River Galaxy, such great Domini were all called Grand Emperors!

Every Grand Emperor was famed and undefeated in the cosmos. Apart from the galactic-level Divine Kings, they were the strongest.

The North River Divine King was the strongest in the North River Galaxy, but he basically did not interfere with the various major factions in the North River Galaxy. Moreover, he had not developed a powerful faction like the Divine Palace of Bemond.

Hence, countless ambitious cultivators and countless factions entered the North River Galaxy to “stake their claim in the new market”. Cultivators even often attacked each other and annexed each other’s territory.

As for the use of these territories?

Of course they were useful, and the uses were huge. Many planetary lifeforms needed resources. A large amount of resources, such as some cosmic miraculous items, also required some resources for purchase.

Where would the resources come from?

Naturally, they came from these planets. Due to the open nature of the North River Galaxy, countless cultivators surged in, making it a holy land for cultivation.

There were all kinds of Origin Weapons, cultivation methods, and miraculous items. They were simply innumerable. As a result, every planet in the North River Galaxy was developed to the extreme by cultivators, and had the best cultivation environment.

As time passed, the North River Galaxy naturally became a holy land for cultivation.

There were even fiends hiding among them to stir up trouble. After all, in such a holy land for cultivation, even if they only devoured one planet, there would be powerful cultivators within. Devouring one such planet was equivalent to devouring dozens of planets in other galaxies.

Naturally, the North River Galaxy would attract countless fiends to infiltrate it. However, the cultivators of the North River Galaxy also viewed fiends as public enemies. After all, even when two Domini attacked each other, it was for the sake of competing for the territorial planets. Basically very few people would destroy planets on a large scale.

However, fiends could devour planets and everything. They were considered completely destructive. Once traces of fiends were discovered, cultivators would quickly band together to attack them.

Of course, there must be some very cautious and deeply concealed fiends.

“Dominus, this is…?”

In the Dominus Manor, there was a Minotaur with a pair of long, curved horns. Even in his ordinary form, he was more than two meters tall. He looked very burly and ferocious.

“Bai Xiong, this is Brother Lin Feng, whom I just met. He is a disciple of the Divine Palace of Bemond!”

“Brother Lin Feng, this is Bai Xiong, my right-hand man. Normally, when I’m not around, Bai Xiong would manage all the matters in the territory.”

“Greetings, Brother Bai.”

“Your Highness Lin Feng.”

This Bai Xiong looked boorish, but he was actually very thoughtful. He had heard the title “Brother Lin Feng” from Venerable Vigil. This was very rare indeed.

Bai Xiong knew Venerable Vigil very well. Venerable Vigil was prideful. He was outstanding among the Venerables, and even had a chance of becoming a Grand Emperor. There were very few cultivators that Venerable Vigil regarded with respect.

Even if those who were also Venerables might not be regarded highly by Venerable Vigil.

However, now that Venerable Vigil was so “familiar” with Lin Feng, and even befriended him as an equal. This was unusual, and meant that Venerable Vigil regarded Lin Feng very highly.

Bai Xiong could only sense the aura of six life transitions on Lin Feng. It had to be known that life transitions could not be concealed. The aura of six life transitions meant that Lin Feng was only a planetary lifeform.

Why was a planetary lifeform so highly regarded by Venerable Vigil?

Even though Bai Xiong was very curious, he was very respectful towards Lin Feng.

Lin Feng was also observing Bai Xiong. He sensed the aura of six life transitions on Bai Xiong. Clearly, the other party was also an elementary planetary lifeform.

In the universe, a cultivator that was an elementary lifeform was quite rare to come by. He did not expect to see a planetary lifeform so soon.

“Dominus, how is your artifact?”

“Although there were some twists and turns, it is finally completed!”

“It is completed?”

A look of joy appeared on Bai Xiong’s face. He knew how much effort Venerable Vigil had put in for the Ennead Pearls of Spirit Fire. This was no ordinary Origin Weapon. Just collecting the materials had taken centuries.

“Bai Xiong, has anything happened in the territory recently?”

Venerable Vigil could also tell that Bai Xiong seemed to want to say something but hesitated. Hence, he waved his hand and said, “Brother Lin Feng is one of us. If you have anything to say, just say it.”

Bai Xiong gritted his teeth and said, “Dominus, during your absence, Venerable Oceanus recruited some foreign planetary cultivators from somewhere. Although they are only elementary planetary lifeforms, they are very strong. They often provoked us. A few commanders in the territory could not tolerate the provocations and fought with them, and wound up suffering heavy losses.”

“There’s such a thing?”

Venerable Vigil’s expression darkened.

“Dominus, the mysterious cultivators that Venerable Oceanus recruited are indeed very strong. Almost every one is not inferior to me. Even I am not confident of defeating them myself.”

“Fortunately, we are protected by the cosmic array, so those people do not dare to enter the territory. However, I think Venerable Oceanus must have a major agenda for recruiting these mysterious cultivators, and provoking us continuously recently. Dominus, please make preparations early.”

Venerable Vigil laughed coldly and said, “Oceanus has fought with me for thousands of years. What method has he not used? All he wants is to annex my 72 territorial stars. As long as I’m around, he can forget about ever defeating me. However, your reminder is right. That Oceanus has recruited so many cultivators. He wouldn’t keep them around for nothing, and will definitely cause trouble. Pay close attention to those mysterious cultivators and investigate them thoroughly.”

“Yes, Dominus.”

Bai Xiong accepted the order and left. Venerable Vigil turned around and said to Lin Feng with a smile, “That was embarrassing in front of Brother Lin Feng. I’ll go and deal with some mundane matters first. How about I let Bai Xiong bring Brother Lin Feng for a tour around the planet?”

“It’s fine. Big Brother, go ahead. I happen to be a little tired, so I will go and rest first.”

“All right, I’ll hold a welcome party for Brother Lin Feng after I’m done with mundane matters.”

Hence, Lin Feng parted ways with Venerable Vigil and turned to leave the residence.
