Chapter 991: Chapter 991: The Disadvantages of Energy Metals

Xu Nian ultimately chose the Blue Gold Army.

First of all, without considering anything else, if he didn’t choose to join, whether Zhao Yunshen would let him go was another matter.

Besides, joining the Blue Gold Army didn’t seem to have any disadvantages for him.

"Alright, from today on, you are a member of the Blue Gold Army of the Denor Empire. I hope that when the Denor Empire needs you, no matter where you are, you must return. Additionally, the Martial God Temple of the Denor Empire will also be open to you. It contains numerous secret techniques and moves left by many predecessors of the Blue Gold Army, which you can explore when you have time," Zhao Yunshen said to Xu Nian with great expectations.

Actually, when it comes to recruiting for the Blue Gold Army, he didn’t need to personally take action.

However, Xu Nian’s performance on Slaughter Star surprised him a lot, which is why he chose to come personally.

At this moment, handing over the army emblem of the Blue Gold Army to Xu Nian, his heart was also filled with expectation.

The young man in front of him was so young; when he first saw Xu Nian, he was surprised.

Because Xu Nian was much younger than he had imagined.

Moreover, Xu Nian’s calmness made him very optimistic about him.

There are many geniuses, but those who are proud of their talents can easily get extinguished in their growth.

However, Xu Nian’s calmness made him very satisfied.

"By the way, senior, is there a transmission array to the Tianhen Star Domain in the empire?" Xu Nian suddenly thought of something and asked.

Tianlan Star is located in the Tianhen Star Domain. Xu Nian must rely on the interstellar teleportation array to reach Tianlan Star.

If he relied on flying himself, it would probably take thousands of years, and he might never reach it.

Moreover, in the vast Star Sea, it is easy to lose direction.

Even if Zhao Yunshen didn’t come, he would go to the empire to find the interstellar teleportation array.

"Tianhen Star Domain? What do you want to do there?" Zhao Yunshen frowned slightly, turning to look at Xu Nian and asked.

Ordinary cultivators usually choose to operate within their star domain, rarely engaging in long-distance teleportation to other star domains.

The entire cultivation world has currently discovered only nine star domains.

Among them, the Four Great Sects occupy four star domains.

The Denor Star System is ruled by the Denor Empire.

The remaining four star domains, Tianhen Star Domain, Taiheng Star Domain, Fairy Star Domain, and Sky Wind Star Domain are gathering places for loose cultivators.

Among them, Sky Wind Star Domain gathers more Demon Beasts, and humans rarely set foot there.

However, Xu Nian plans to visit Sky Wind Star Domain sooner or later.

Because he promised the Dragon God to go to Tianhan Star and rescue her daughter.

Of course, with his current strength, Xu Nian cannot save the Beast God’s daughter yet.

Moreover, her daughter still has ten years of lifespan, and Xu Nian has at most spent four years in the cultivation world.

So he has a long period, not in a hurry to go there for now.

Right now, the most important thing is to return to the Tianhen Star Domain and rescue Xuan Hong.

"To report to you, senior, I am originally from the Tianhen Star Domain. My friend was once captured, and I must return to save him," Xu Nian replied truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunshen nodded suddenly with understanding.

So this guy is from the Tianhen Star Domain.

Tianhen Star Domain can be said to be the weakest among the Nine Great Star Regions.

The cultivators there are generally very backward, and even a few planets would produce one Earth Immortal level expert.

However, lately, the Tianhen Star Domain has become quite lively.

"The empire has a transmission array leading to the Tianhen Star Domain. Since you want to go there, I have a task I can assign to you. Of course, you can choose not to accept it, but if you complete this task, the empire will generously reward you," Zhao Yunshen said to Xu Nian.

"Oh? What task?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"No rush, since you plan to go to the empire, I will tell you slowly on the way," Zhao Yunshen said with a smile.

Xu Nian nodded.

Then he called the members of the Heavenly Court Gang, gave a few instructions, and left.

Of course, when leaving, Xu Nian also took a large batch of Red Gold Energy Metal with him.

Currently, he had only absorbed half of his Red Gold Energy Metal and was far from saturation.

Once his absorption reaches saturation, his body’s toughness would even exceed that of a top-grade spiritual artifact, and the Dragon Scale Armor would be comparable to a top-grade spiritual artifact.

At that time, others would find it difficult to break through his defense.

So Xu Nian wanted to absorb the Red Gold Energy Metal to saturation while on the road.

Soon, Xu Nian boarded Zhao Yunshen’s ship.

Xu Nian found that Zhao Yunshen’s ship was entirely made of top-grade spiritual artifact materials.

However, it was not a large ship, but a small ship capable of accommodating only a dozen people.

This kind of ship could withstand attacks from Earth Immortal level experts without any issue.

At this moment, within the ship, Xu Nian and Zhao Yunshen stood facing each other.

The ship, driven by formation, turned into a stream of light and left Sirius, heading towards the depths of the Denor Star System.

"Are you absorbing ability metals?" After both sat down, Zhao Yunshen asked with a smile.

Xu Nian was not surprised. When he collected the Red Gold Energy Metal earlier, he didn’t avoid Zhao Yunshen.

After all, he believed that the imposing leader of the empire’s Blue Gold Army would not covet his small amount of Red Gold Energy Metal.

"Yes, senior, is there a problem?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"There is no problem with absorbing energy metals to strengthen the body because most people in the Denor Empire do so. Moreover, since you are a Body Cultivation expert, absorbing energy metals greatly aids in refining your body," Zhao Yunshen said with a smile.

Xu Nian nodded, acknowledging that he too felt the benefit.

A powerful physical defense can play a crucial role in battle.

Although the Divine Demon Refining Body is powerful, it primarily increases blood vitality and Gang Qi, whereas energy metals offer a more straightforward and faster enhancement to the body.

"However, let me remind you that absorbing too much energy metal isn’t necessarily a good thing. Not to mention anything else, once the energy of this metal exceeds your body’s limit, it might cause physical breakdown. Generally, people stop at Red Gold Energy Metal, and very few choose to absorb Blue Gold Energy Metal. As for Black Gold Energy Metal, no one in the history of the Denor Star System has ever absorbed it," Zhao Yunshen said, sipping his tea.

Xu Nian nodded, not worried about these issues for now.

He has the Divine Demon Refining Body Technique, and his body’s endurance far surpasses ordinary people.

Moreover, he possesses the Nine Dragons Supreme Body, so absorbing Blue Gold Ability Metal should not pose any problems.

As for Black Gold Ability Metal, he might try it in the future if the opportunity arises.

However, the fact that no one has absorbed Black Gold Energy Metal up to now surprised Xu Nian.

Could it be that over the years, no one’s body has reached the level capable of withstanding Black Gold Energy?

Seemingly noticing Xu Nian’s confusion, Zhao Yunshen smiled slightly and said, "Yes, in the Denor Star System there are individuals whose bodies can withstand Black Gold, but no one chooses to do so because it equates to cutting off their path to immortality."

"Why?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled.

Could it be that the stronger the body, the less likely one becomes immortal?

Zhao Yunshen smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what the Middle Stage Earth Immortal does?"

Xu Nian paused, then seemed to recall something and quickly asked, "Do you mean that the higher the level of energy metal absorbed, the harder it becomes to refine the Immortal Body?"

Zhao Yunshen shook his head and said, "It’s not that it’s completely impossible, but achieving success becomes extremely difficult."
