Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

"Shenhao civilization!" Xue Ling heard the name, and her mouth instantly formed an O-shape from surprise.

Even though she hailed from a second-level civilization, this name was still as thunderous as ever to her ears!

The name Shenhao civilization had long vanished from the universe's civilizations. Ever since that shocking broadcast, the people of Shenhao civilization seemed to have disappeared into thin air, never to be seen again.

Years had passed since then. It was no longer a popular topic of conversation among other civilizations, yet nobody ever forgot this civilization that made people's hair stand on end at its mention.

They believed that the people of Shenhao civilization hadn't been active among the cosmos's civilizations lately. Some boldly speculated that during the entrance exam of the Cosmic Federation School, someone from Shenhao civilization might show up.

Wealthy beyond measure, with countless powerful individuals, it surely wouldn't be difficult for them to nurture some young talents. Perhaps in this entrance exam, filled with hidden talents, members of Shenhao civilization would emerge once more.

But Xue Ling did not expect that before she even crossed the border of the Guna La civilization, she would meet someone from Shenhao civilization, and he even saved her!

Rumor had it that people from Shenhao civilization had unpredictable demeanors, even to the point that one couldn't judge them by standard notions of good and evil. For most, if they truly encountered someone from Shenhao civilization, they would choose to keep a respectful distance.

However, upon real interaction, it didn't seem all that difficult to get along. Apart from a somewhat quirky personality, at least this young man named Fujiwara Takumi appeared to have a strong sense of justice.

"Mr. Fujiwara Takumi, are you really from Shenhao civilization?"

"How many people in this world would dare pretend to be from Shenhao civilization?" Fang Jueyu said, "So, you don't believe me?"

"No..." Xue Ling replied somewhat sheepishly, "It's just that you're a bit different from what I imagined people from Shenhao civilization to be. They speak of this name with such fear, as if everyone from Shenhao civilization were exceedingly cruel."

"And what do you think?"

"I don't know about others, but you must be a kind person."

"This little girl is really naive. I have no idea how she's managed to survive in this cutthroat cosmos civilization until now," Xiao Yi couldn't help but say.

"Damn! Xiao Yi, what do you mean? Are you implying I don't look like a kind person?" Fang Jueyu spoke threateningly.

"Perhaps not kind," Fang Jueyu told Xue Ling, "typically, we from Shenhao civilization don't go looking for trouble, but we never fear it either. If someone messes with us, their fate is bound to be catastrophic!"

Xue Ling nodded; she definitely believed that.

"So when that guy threatened me earlier, thinking he could just leave easily, he was mistaken!" Fang Jueyu smiled slightly, "Xiao Yi, let's go, catch up to them!"

"Yes, master!"

"Boom!" The tail of the spaceship erupted with powerful thrust, the blaze shooting tens of kilometers in a split second. The spacecraft immediately chased in the direction You Huo had fled with astonishing speed.

...

"Young master, we've entered the metal asteroid belt!" At this moment, You Huo's three spaceships had already entered this extremely complex and dangerous area.

"I'll clear the way ahead. You all follow me closely!" You Huo switched the spacecraft to manual flight mode, accelerating to several times beyond the safety speed of the automatic navigation mode, skillfully maneuvering through the area.

"The young master's piloting skill is indeed extraordinary! An ordinary pilot would probably only dare use half this speed!"

"At this rate, that individual surely won't catch up!"

"Hmm! When I return to the Guna La civilization, I'll make him pay!" You Huo said. As the most outstanding under-100-year-old in his family, You Huo's status was quite high, allowing him within reason to command considerable family resources.

"Contact the family immediately, have them dispatch a team of Divine Ability Users to Gucang civilization to stand by. The moment that kid enters, seize him immediately!"

"Yes, young master!"

Flying at such high speed in this area, even You Huo had to stay fully focused. The hardness of these metal meteoroids far exceeded that of his spaceships. Colliding with them would mean certain destruction and demise!

"He hasn't caught up, has he?" Sweat started dotting You Huo's forehead.

"Rest assured, young master, our sensors haven't detected any targets nearby!"

"That's good, hahaha, seems like he couldn't catch up to us!"

"Wait, young master. There's a target approaching us at an extremely high speed, over three times ours!"

"What? That's impossible!" You Huo's piloting speed had already reached nearly 80% of his spacecraft's theoretical limit. In this region, no matter how superb the skill, there's a speed cap.

Otherwise, even if the pilot's reaction were quick enough to avoid the meteorites ahead, the spacecraft's maneuverability and inherent inertia wouldn't allow it to execute evasive actions instantly.

Even if Fang Jueyu's spacecraft were superior, reaching that speed was unthinkable!

Three times their speed, not even the universe's best pilot flying the most advanced spacecraft could manage that!

"No... young master, it's not maneuvering through the metal asteroid belt, it's ramming straight on!"

"That's even more impossible! The hardness of these meteoroids exceeds most level-four metals. Even a level-four spacecraft colliding would suffer severe damage!" You Huo nearly shouted hysterically.

"It's him, it's that young man's spaceship from before!"

You Huo's crew immediately sent over the footage of the spaceship, advancing toward them at an unimaginable speed, all along turning the meteoroids to dust, while the spaceship remained unscathed.

A deep red glow surrounded the vessel; it's precisely due to this that it bypassed the meteoroids seemingly unhindered.

"Young master, it's a top-tier energy shield!"

"What? Is he insane?" You Huo roared.

Such a top-tier energy shield could withstand even the usual Transcender's attacks, allowing it to traverse freely through this zone.

However, there's one catch. This shield required filling with level-four or higher Cosmic Crystals rather than ordinary Energy Barytes!

At this level of impact, a four-level Cosmic Crystal might only sustain it for fewer than ten seconds. By the spacecraft's speed, it likely had been flying in this region for more than two minutes already. That amounted to over 120 level-four Cosmic Crystals!

Even You Huo carried only two or three level-two Cosmic Crystals for his usual practice.

The value of over a hundred level-four Cosmic Crystals amounted to tens of trillions in Cosmic currency! Either this person was insane, or he was a spendthrift!

...

"Master, we've located their position, and we'll catch up within five minutes tops!"

"Ha, I thought it'd be more impressive! Trying to race with me, Fujiwara Takumi from Jiangnan City? Not even close!" Fang Jueyu stated calmly, "This lousy level-three spacecraft isn't even as sturdy as these meteorites. If I accidentally roll over one, I wouldn't even notice!"

"Boss, the Cosmic Crystals are depleted again!" Xiao Hei was vigorously inserting one level-four Cosmic Crystal after another into the energy system.

"Take these!" Fang Jueyu casually tossed over several level-five Cosmic Crystals. The spoils of that battle consisted of far more Cosmic Crystals than just these, so it didn't bother Fang Jueyu in the slightest!

Besides, with the "White Cataract" pupil skill at his disposal, Fang Jueyu never lacked Cosmic Crystals!

"Don't bother saving them for me. I've got plenty, and if we run out, we'll just snag some more from the stone workshops in the Guna La civilization!"

"Got it!" Xiao Hei sneakily pocketed one of the level-five Cosmic Crystals when Fang Jueyu wasn't looking.

Xue Ling standing on the side was completely dumbfounded. Is this the style of people from Shenhao civilization? They truly are extravagantly wealthy beyond belief!
