"Interstellar citizen: Feng Lin. Age: 17. Planet Earth of the Solar System, a citizen from Huaxia City. This is your first time entering the virtual universe, please create a virtual id..."

The voice of the A.I. rang out in his ears, jolting him awake.

He glanced at his surroundings and discovered that he was standing in the midst of a starry space. Clusters of stars shone brilliantly, and countless streams of starry rivers flowed around him. It was like there was a brand new world in each location, filling this space with an infinite amount of possibilities.

According to research he had done, Feng Lin understood that this scene would occur every time a human first logged in to the virtual universe interface.

To humans of the Interstellar Era, the space, which they could be active at, was no longer restricted to the real world situated in the boundless universe. There was a digitalized virtual universe as well.

The virtual universe mimicked the structure of the real universe but it was something completely different.

The solar systems of the real universe were made up with different clusters of planets, but for the virtual universe, each solar system could be considered a different world.

Movies, games, animation… All kinds of elements were blended together. Everything humans could imagine in the real world were all transformed into digital data into a virtual reality which created a multiverse here. Humans could enter any world they wished to, enjoying themselves as much as they wanted to.

Also, there was a time ratio. For every one hour in reality, one day would pass in the virtual universe, causing humans to become more addicted to it.

Many shooting stars shot forward like bolts of lightning. Feng Lin's eyes narrowed as he discovered many bizarre and wonderful creations. There were giant dragons, the zerg race, flying immortal swords…

These were all items one could obtain from different virtual worlds. After all, this place possessed countless possibilities. Everything was imaginary yet they seemed to akin to reality.

Imagination was the only thing that was limiting you; there was nothing you wouldn't be able to do here. Feng Lin felt himself relaxing as he continued to observe.

In reality, no matter which corner of the universe you were in, as long as you could connect to the online network, you would be able to instantly interact with the virtual web.


Hearing about it was one thing, seeing it with his own eyes was another.

To Feng Lin, who had crossed-over worlds from the Ancient Earth Era, this scene was an extremely shocking one.

This was a grand era that was unprecedented. This was the virtual universe created by humans of the Interstellar Era!

In reality, humans were conquering countless other worlds, while they were also developing their science and technology to an extent where they could create a virtual universe.

The unity of both the real and virtual universe constituted the main body of the human world.

Those large-scale companies not only had presence in the real world, but they also had strong influences in the virtual universe.

Without entering this place, it was tough for him to imagine how far the technology of humans had been developing.

For the first time, Feng Lin felt that he had been too much of a frog in a well in the past, only caring about cultivation and had completely neglected this other part of his world, the virtual universe.

After the initial shock, Feng Lin had recovered completely. He still had something important he needed to do, and he had to make the best use of his time.

Who knew how long the virtual interview would take. If the time taken was too long and exceeded the amount of time he bought, he might inadvertently be forced to go offline by the A.I. of the internet cafe.

Everything was possible in the virtual universe. In reality, people had various sorts of limitations. They weren't able to grow wings and fly, they weren't able to dive into the deepest depth of the ocean, and they weren't able to time travel to a time period ten thousand years later…

However, as long as you paid for extra services, you could do anything you wanted to in the virtual universe. Nothing was impossible.

There were different worlds here: the Avatar world, World of Warcraft, even Naruto…

You could get the main characters of any movie to fall in love with you; you could personally experience passing every level of a game that you liked to play; you could roam wherever you wanted to in an anime story...

Hence many people could enjoy this forever and never grow tired of this. They immersed themselves fully to the point where they could no longer extricate themselves, blurring the lines between virtual and reality. They would spend all day and night in the virtual universe, even forgetting to rest.

According to a phrase in the Ancient Earth Era, the virtual universe was like a place where one could become an immortal, an immortal that could soar to the nine heavens.

In order to prevent people from becoming die-hard otakus as they ignored the reality of life, humanity had imposed a prohibition law on the virtual universe.

For humans who entered the virtual universe, they only had the online period restriction of more than six hours in one sequence, up to a cumulative period of twelve hours in a day. More than that, they would be forcibly ejected, forced to go offline and could only enter the virtual universe again after twenty-four hours. They wanted to prevent people from being overly addicted to it.

Many people found the prohibition law commendable, but to those 'soaring immortals', this was simply a calamity from the heavens. There were even people giving this prohibition law the nickname of 'Heaven's Calamity".

Hence, Feng Lin wanted to make the best use of his time.

According to logic, as long as he opened his personal system interface, he could simply input the location's coordinates, and he would be teleported there. Things were extremely convenient.

But he discovered that no matter how many times he tried to input, there was no response at all.

Just when he was feeling extremely confused, an electronic voice rang out in his ears, reminding him of something.

"Please create your virtual id! Please create your virtual id! Please create your virtual id!"...

Only now did Feng Lin laugh. What a fool he was. It was only natural that he needed to register a name since this was the first time he was attempting to enter the virtual universe.

He thought about it and mumbled softly after some hesitation, "Wukong?"

"The virtual id's application is successful. Wukong, welcome to the virtual universe!" The virtual universe's A.I.'s voice rang out in his ears.

"..." Feng Lin was speechless, he didn't expect that he would succeed in applying for such a name at his first attempt.

His genetic cultivation path was undoubtedly the path Sun Wukong had taken. Hence, he thought of this name.

There were billions of humans in the Interstellar Era, as many as stars in the sky. It wasn't easy to obtain a virtual id with the name you wanted. This was the same as the pen names of authors in the Ancient Earth Era. Those that were better-sounding were long since used by someone else. There were people who failed to get a virtual id they wanted despite thinking up to over ten names. In the end, they could only select names such as "I Eat Tomatoes", "Chen Dong", "Heavenly Silkworm Potato"... all these weird names. (These are all pen names of authors of chinese web novels that are at the rank of 'Great Gods")

He was only trying his luck, but who would have thought that he would succeed at the first try? Hehe...

This was a scene totally out of his expectations.

After all, the myths and legends had already all vanished from this age. The legend of Great Sage Sun was long forgotten by humanity, and there was no one who knew what the words 'Wukong' represented.

A person could only have one virtual id, and they couldn't change it. Therefore, everyone would pick their id carefully; no one would casually take a random name. Who would have thought that Feng Lin would pick up such a huge advantage?

Feng Lin felt he was simply too fortunate and for some reasons, he felt that this stroke of luck caused him to feel more confident about the interview later.

"X: 263527;y: 678883;z: 1312321!" According to the interview document sent by the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, Feng Lin imputed the spatial coordinates.

At the next moment, the scene in his vision trembled. His figure transformed into starlight as he vanished from where he had stood.

It was unknown how much distance he had shifted through space. Numerous rows of data akin to star light flashed in the air around him as the motes of light rematerialized Feng Lin's figure.

A gigantic planet appeared before his eyes, slowly rotating. A group of moon-like satellites revolved around the planet, forming the words 'Giant Pharmaceutical Company!"

Was this the territory in the virtual universe controlled by the Giant Pharmaceutical Company?

Although territories in the virtual universe couldn't be compared to the real world, they still had to be bought by money.

This Giant Pharmaceutical Company actually owned an entire planet. What kind of unholy wealth was this?

Feng Lin's body gently floated down. He only saw a beautiful OL (office lady) swaying her hips as she walked over. Her lanky legs were walking in a suggestive catwalk; her blonde hair dazzled his sight as her eyes caused his heart to stir—truly an excellent creature indeed.

"Are you Mr. Feng Lin that's here for an interview? Please come with me!" Feng Lin didn't mask his appearance. The beautiful OL surveyed him before smiling charmingly. After that, her hips swayed as she walked, causing her fully-rounded buttocks to bounce gently as she led the way.

Feng Lin drew in a deep breath and followed after.
