Chapter 579: Shocking! The Tycoon Civilization of Ma Yun Actually...
"What are you planning to do? If you've got the guts, just kill us already!"
Fang Jueyu's expression filled Vizi and Mo Sang with an inexplicable fear.
As ancient beings who had lived for millions, even tens of millions of years, they had long become indifferent to life and death. To become a Transcender, talent, resources, luck, and courage were all indispensable, not to mention reaching a Venerable Level of transcendence.
Every breakthrough and advancement they achieved was a gamble with their lives, so whenever they made some decisions, they always prepared for the worst.
The mysteries of the God-Tier Civilization were profound, and what kind of person could be behind this Ma Yun was already considered by them. Therefore, the current situation was not entirely unexpected; at most, they could only say that they had lost the bet this time.
They knew clearly that with the appearance of these two Transcenders, their situation today didn't look promising. When their bodies were imprisoned, they had already prepared for their end. In this cruel universe, it's survival of the fittest; the simplest rule there is.
"I really don't want to kill you," Fang Jueyu smiled, "It's a shame to waste this universe's resources by killing someone who fought their way from ordinary beginnings to here."
"Is he planning to let us go?" the two speculated.
"Maybe he'll just take all our belongings and spare our lives," they recalled what happened on Planet Jana, where that Zhou Runfa merely stripped Ozke of his clothes and took his Space Ring. Embarrassing, but the life was saved.
But today, there were only six people plus an unknown pet. Even if they were humiliated, no one else would know. Keeping their lives would already be considered fortunate.
They didn't know that what Fang Jueyu planned to do was even more painful than death!
"Xiao Yi, is it ready?"
"Yes, Host, I've registered you on the largest live-streaming platform in the Cosmic Federation, and we've upgraded your account to top-tier permissions. You can live-stream anything, anytime, anywhere!"
"Oh? Let me take a look," Fang Jueyu logged into the platform, and his consciousness directly entered the network of the Cosmic Federation.
In front of him were various live-content streams. On Earth's platforms, the content was singing, dancing, gaming, mukbangs, crafts, and so on, but on this cosmic-level platform, the content was much more diverse.
There were large-scale wars between civilizations, martial arts teachings in dojos, explorations of the Cosmic Secret Realm, and of course, some live streams charged fees since they involved the domain of Martial Artists, and not everything was free.
He saw one room with an arena Martial Artist from a Level 3 civilization teaching a Level 3 martial art. To watch, you needed to pay a viewing fee of 500,000 Cosmic Credits.
"Isn't that a bit of a rip-off?" Fang Jueyu couldn't help but curse.
"Not at all!" Xiao Yi said, "If you buy it from the Cosmic Federation's Martial Artist Guild Mall, a Level 3 martial art would at least start at tens of millions of Cosmic Credits. If you have the talent, watching a few times might let you learn something. It's practically a steal."
"True!"
Fang Jueyu continued browsing, finding a Controller battling a monster in a blackened place. Who knows who was streaming it, but the entertainment value was high, and the price was much lower.
"War between the Ziloc and Oplus civilizations live stream!"
The fee for this stream was just 10,000 Cosmic Credits. Fang Jueyu paid and entered the stream.
Instantly, his body appeared in a vast starry sky, witnessing the intense battle between two massive Cosmic Battleships, filled with numerous Mobile Soldiers and Martial Artists, a grand spectacle.
It was like being there in person; the beams and the Cosmic Source Power of the warriors passed through his body, allowing him a god-like perspective of this clash between civilizations.
"Tsk, this is just like a blockbuster military movie!" Fang Jueyu marveled, feeling that Earth's equivalent was trash, "Someone better give the cameraman a bonus!"
"Haha, Host, these streams are generally handled by AI, or the official channel of some civilization. If personal Martial Artists enter such a battlefield, unless they're extremely powerful, they'd be shredded to pieces."
"True!"
"All right, time for me to start my live stream!" Fang Jueyu rummaged through his pile of loot and quickly found some usable equipment.
"Mohe, the cameraman job is yours!" Fang Jueyu handed a huge, camera-like instrument to Mohe.
Mohe seemed dazed, but his intelligence was perfectly normal. He had most of the skills a slave would have, appearing almost like a soulless AI.
"Yes, Master!" Mohe easily set up the equipment, and under Xiao Yi's control, connected it to his live-streaming account. Instantly, the view of the area appeared in the streaming room, though the viewer count was still zero.
"What... what exactly are you planning to do?"
"Hei Qing, shut them up!" Fang Jueyu ordered.
"Yes, Young Master!"
A surge of Cosmic Source Power sealed Vizi and Mo Sang's vocal cords, leaving them unable to speak, only displaying shocked expressions.
"Host, you might want to give your stream an attractive title!"
"Hmm, let me think... 'Secrets of Ma Yun from the God-Tier Civilization?'"
"No way, it won't highlight the theme. No one would watch."
"How about this!" Fang Jueyu had a sudden inspiration, "'Shocking! What Ma Yun from the God-Tier Civilization did to two Venerable Transcenders...'"
"Host, it's a pity you're not working for UC," Xiao Yi couldn't help but laugh, "But a title like that might really draw some attention!"
The Cosmic Federation was in a prolonged state of regional conflict and overall peace. Without deep animosity, wars between civilizations were rare, and most Cosmic Federation citizens lived relatively prosperous lives.
Like Earthlings, people enjoyed spending their free time watching live streams. However, most would only browse in the free zones since most streams in the Martial Artist section required expensive viewing fees.
"Hmm? This stream's title is interesting!"
"Venerable Transcender? What's going on? A free Martial Artist-related stream? Must be a hoax, right?"
"God-Tier Civilization? Sounds interesting, and it's free, so why not check it out."
Attracted by the title, the viewer count rapidly increased. The Cosmic Federation's network servers were incomparable to Earth's trash servers, accommodating billions without lag.
Shortly, the number of viewers grew from hundreds to thousands, then millions, then billions, and even more. How vast was the universe? How many civilizations were there? How many people? How many would be on a cosmic-level streaming platform?
Attracted by this title, the online viewer count blew up to astronomical numbers.
"Ma Yun? God-Tier Civilization? Is that the one who attended the Morar Civilization auction not long ago?" Finally, the first person who had heard of Ma Yun and the God-Tier Civilization entered the stream.
"He can still stream? Didn't those big shots hijack it halfway?"
"It's him! This is the Ma Yun I saw in the Morar Civilization news!"
