Without a spaceship, even if he left Darkmoon Star at his speed, even if the slave owner fleet didn't discover him for several months, even if he had several years, it would be impossible for him to reach the next inhabited planet. It's even possible that he would be lost in the universe for the rest of his life.

Not to mention that once the slave owners discover him, they will send a fleet over and use advanced detection instruments to explore the surrounding area, and he will have no way to escape.

"Even if I die, I will never become a slave!" In his despair, Moody smiled faintly. "Killing this bunch of slave owners' lackeys, I've still gained something, it's not a loss!"

For Moody, death was nothing to fear. He lived for revenge the moment his parents were taken away and his sister was killed by forces controlled by slave traders.

Today, he has wiped out the forces controlled by the slave traders. Somewhat regrettably, he will never be able to find any information about his parents, nor does he know whether they are alive or dead at this moment...

"call!"

Moody took a deep breath, clearing his mind of all distractions. No matter what, he would never give up until the very last moment.

Without this kind of will, he wouldn't be where he is today.

Moody gazed at the starry sky, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

"Planetary-level planets have a lifespan of a thousand years, constellations have a lifespan of one epoch, and cosmic-level planets have a lifespan of ten epochs..."

"Unfortunately, I don't even have the secret method to break through to the Hengxing level. I must reach another inhabited planet within a thousand years. Wish me luck!"

Due to the deliberate control of the slave traders, Moody had no way of obtaining the secret method to break through to the star level, nor did he have a star map or a spaceship. If he ventured deep into the vast starry sky, the probability of getting lost would be extremely high.

But if he didn't venture into the vast expanse of space, he would only become a slave to the slave traders. Rather than become a slave, he wanted to take a gamble; at worst, he would simply die of old age.

He valued freedom more than the miserable fate of slavery!

"Moody!"

Just as Moody was about to set off, a voice reached his ears.

"who!"

Moody's eyes were no longer calm as before; he was utterly astonished!

Just then, a figure appeared not far in front of him.

This person had the same black hair as him, and his physique and appearance were not much different from the main race of Dark Star. The biggest difference was that this person had black pupils, while the pupils of the people of Dark Star were red! Just like Hengxing.

Who is this person?

Could they be slave traders? Impossible!

Moody immediately dismissed his guess, because he saw no malice in the other person's eyes, but rather a hint of admiration.

A traveler? Or an adventurer? Or someone who stumbled upon this place by chance?

Regardless, this is his chance!

This person was able to appear in front of him silently, so their strength must be at least at the cosmic level, or even possibly a domain lord!

If he can seize this opportunity, his chance to change his destiny will come!

"senior!"

Moody bowed and looked at the other person with eager eyes.

Zhou Ze smiled slightly: "It seems you've ruled out the idea that I'm a slave trader."

Upon hearing Zhou Ze's words, Moody's excitement intensified, and he knelt on the ground, pleading, "Please, senior, take me away from here!"

Zhou Ze smiled slightly and said, "You killed the slave trader's guard squad and left. What will happen to your fellow citizens on Dark Star?"

A test! Absolutely a test!

Moody's mind raced faster than ever before, trying to figure out how to give a satisfactory answer that would allow the other party to leave.

In a daze, seeing Zhou Ze's ambiguous smile, Moody's eyes became calm and unfathomable as he said:

"I wouldn't dare deceive you, senior. I have no family left on Darkmoon Star, and I have little attachment to it..."

"But... Darkmoon Star is, after all, my home planet, and the people of Darkmoon Star are my kin. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely save it from the slave traders!"

Zhou Ze nodded slightly: "But what if you killed all the slave traders' men, and the slave traders can't find you? In their rage, they might destroy Dark Star or torture your people, what then?"

Moody calmly stated, "Dark Star provides slave traders with considerable wealth every year, and slaves themselves are wealth. Even if the slave traders are furious, they won't lose their money. At most, they'll send more forces to guard Dark Star and search for me!"

"Furthermore... no amount of torture can compare to being a slave to be slaughtered at will!"

At this point, Moody rationally stated, "Only if I live can I possibly change the fate of my race!"

Moody had a very clear understanding of himself; he knew that his talent and comprehension might never have appeared before in the entire history of Dark Star.

"That's true," Zhou Ze said lazily. "Alright then..."

Moody knelt on the ground, suppressing his excitement: "Thank you, senior!"

……

In the primordial universe, amidst the boundless starry sky, a seemingly ordinary spaceship appeared out of nowhere...

"We've arrived, Moody. This is the core continent of the Ancient Wheel Universe Kingdom, the Ancient Wheel Continent. From today onwards, let's part ways!" Zhou Ze said calmly.

"Senior!" Moody felt extremely reluctant. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent, kneeling on the ground.

"Thank you so much, senior!"

Over the past few months, Moody has developed unusual feelings for Zhou Ze. Having lost his parents at a young age, he has become somewhat dependent on Zhou Ze, since even on Earth, he would still be a minor.

He had tried to become Zhou Ze's apprentice, but was rejected, which left him feeling disappointed for a long time.

In the past few months, he has gained a deeper understanding of his own talents and comprehension, as well as of the entire universe, through the virtual universe.

He knew that with his talent, he would be considered one of the best even in the entire Ancient Wheel Universe Kingdom. Therefore, he couldn't understand why Zhou Ze would refuse to take him as a disciple.

This led him to speculate more about Zhou Ze's identity, and he even guessed that Zhou Ze might be a legendary immortal god!

He asked Zhou Ze about this several times, but the latter always shook his head with a slight smile.

"Senior, could you tell me your virtual universe ID?" Moody asked, though he had been rejected once. He couldn't help but ask again in the end.

Her eyes even welled up with tears, and her voice choked with emotion.

These past few months have been the most comfortable months of his life. Here, he can let go of everything and be carefree, without worrying about his safety or having to cultivate to the point of death.

"Let's meet as fate dictates, and let's part as fate decrees..." Zhou Ze smiled slightly. "Let's cultivate diligently; perhaps we'll meet again someday..."

"I'll give you a surprise next time we meet!"

The next moment, just as Moody was about to say something, the world suddenly changed, his vision blurred, and when he reappeared, he was in an unfamiliar wilderness.

At the same time, Moody discovered a piece of information in his mind: a secret technique called "The Method of Cultivating the Mind"!
