Chapter 354: Primordial Research Inst.i.tute’s Recruit
Translator: CKtalon
“Let’s go.” The three observers immediately led Xu Jingming back and flew toward the huge door of light.
Xu Jingming was somewhat excited and confused.
He knew too little about the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute. Apart from knowing that it was one of the 17 top factions of the human race in the universe, he knew nothing else!
Although I don’t know much about it, I’ve finally successfully joined one of the 17 top factions of humanity in the universe. Xu Jingming was rather excited. When he first entered the mysterious land, the goal he had set for himself was to join a regional faction. Only after arriving on Planet Number Seven did he work hard to comprehend the opportunities and enter the top factions.
He finally succeeded toward the end of the exploration period!
!!
Whoosh.
Xu Jingming followed the three observers and flew into the huge door of light.
…
At that moment, the other top factions in the observational s.p.a.ce watched as the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute left with the genius.
“The Primordial Research Inst.i.tute has recruited a genius.”
“He has only cultivated for two-plus years, but he’s already gained basic mastery of the Primordial Star Conjecture. He’s very talented.”
The top factions were also somewhat astonished.
The fat Origin lifeform observer, Norquien, watched this scene from afar. “He was recruited by the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute after cultivating for two-plus years. Our Galaxy Group has missed such a peerless genius!”
The other two observers didn’t care.
Losing a talent? That was the Galaxy Group losing one; they didn’t lose anything.
…
On the lower level of the observational s.p.a.ce, the 352 factions of the Hunter Cosmic Sector were in an uproar.
“The Primordial Research Inst.i.tute did a recruitment!”
“How many years has it been? The last time the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute recruited people on Planet Number Seven was more than 20 years ago, right?”
“The genius recruited more than 20 years ago comprehended the ‘Microcosm.’ The one recruited this time studied the Primordial Star! The ‘Primordial Star Conjecture’ is one of the three best legacies of the human race in the universe. It’s much harder to gain basic mastery.”
These regional factions exclaimed. They also knew that it was impossible for them to recruit such a genius.
“Look!” The Oohook Star Alliance’s Observer Chang was very excited. “The Primordial Research Inst.i.tute has recruited!”
“I saw it.” The plump Observer Gru curled his lips. “What’s with all the excitement?”
“Our Oohook Star Alliance has produced a genius recruited by the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute.” Observer Chang praised, “Gru, oh Gru, your judgment is really sharp. I could tell that he was extremely talented.”
Observer Gru smiled. “But I never expected him to be so talented! It’s fine if he can reach Planet Number Seven, but he actually got recruited by the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute.”
“Hahaha…” Observer Chang laughed happily. “A big shot might be produced by my Oohook Star Alliance.”
“He still needs time to grow,” Observer Gru remarked, “but you’re right. If everything goes smoothly during his growth, your Oohook Star Alliance might really produce an important figure. Perhaps there will be another councilor!”
The Cosmic Human Alliance had three advanced cosmic civilizations and 5,632 Star Alliances.
Many members of the Star Alliance had limited say. For example, the Oohook Star Alliance was an ordinary Star Alliance with three Lv. 10 experts. In other words… they only had three councilors in the Cosmic Human Alliance’s council.

Xu Jingming followed the three observers to a new virtual world.
This is… He looked at the endless world in front of him.
“This is the virtual world of the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute,” a yellow-haired, eyebrow-less lifeform observer said. “We are scattered across the universe in reality, and most of us meet in the virtual world.”
Xu Jingming nodded.
The universe was too vast! These powerful evolvers had to be stationed everywhere, so it was unlikely for them to all gather together.
“We still need to stay put in the observation s.p.a.ce, so we’ll get Moshen to send you to your residence,” the cold observer said.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Jian.” Observer Moshen nodded. “Leave this to me.”
The cold observer and the other two left first.
A gray-robed observer named Moshen smiled at him. “Number 230534, my name is Moshen. I’m a Lv. 10 researcher at the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute. You can call me Senior Brother Moshen. Our research inst.i.tute usually calls each other senior and junior brothers! Of course, we usually have to address the teachers as mister and madam! For example, Senior Brother Jian… Most members at the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute have to call him Mr. Jian.”
“Mr. Jian?” Although Xu Jingming had only interacted with the cold observer for a short period of time, he could sense that his status was extraordinary.
Mr. Jian was clearly the leader of the three observers.
Moshen nodded. “Senior Brother Jian is the teacher of the ‘Mirror Territory’ legacy at the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute! He’s also the person with the highest achievements in the ‘Mirror Territory’ legacy among the cosmic humans. Although we are both Lv. 10 researchers, I’m far inferior to Senior Brother Jian.”
Xu Jingming felt some admiration for Senior Brother Moshen when he heard that.
The other party was a Lv. 10 expert, yet he could frankly admit that he was inferior to Mr. Jian.
“Let’s go. I’ll send you to your residence first.” Moshen flew into the distance with Xu Jingming.
“Junior Brother, how much do you know about the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute?” Moshen chatted as he flew.
“I only know that it’s one of the 17 top human factions in the universe,” Xu Jingming replied.
“Ha…” Moshen chuckled. “Let me give a simple introduction. Although the cosmic human race is powerful, we also have some alien enemies! In the human race’s history, we have also encountered crises. There have even been historical gaps that result in Paramount existences dying.”
Xu Jingming listened.
“The cosmic dominion is too large, so it’s impossible to be completely isolated,” Moshen said. “We can’t even figure out how many civilizations there are in our human dominion. New civilizations are often discovered.”
Xu Jingming nodded.
Earth exposed its existence when it came into contact with a ‘virtual chamber’ and connected to the virtual world network, resulting in the integration with the Cosmic Human Alliance.
“We can’t even figure out what’s going on internally, so the human dominion naturally can’t be defended perfectly,” Moshen said. “The only method to deal with the alien races is to have absolute strength. We kill them every time we discover them, leaving them completely terrified.”
“The strongest deterrence of our cosmic human race is the combination of three Paramount existences and a forbidden weapon,” Moshen introduced. “The forbidden weapon is a terrifying weapon developed by the full efforts of generations of cosmic human scholars! The three Paramount existences are known as the three strongest evolvers in the world. The destructive might they can produce when using the forbidden weapon… is unimaginable.”
“After several clashes, we completely intimidated the alien races, resulting in us occupying 34 cosmic sectors. The aliens can only put up with it,” Moshen said. “All of this is built on the three Paramount existences and the forbidden weapon.”
“These three Paramount existences established the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute, Eternal Academy, and s.p.a.cetime Island respectively,” Moshen said. “All Origin lifeforms wish to enter these three factions, but our three factions have a strict selection process! We only recruit a small number of Origin lifeforms. The remaining Origin lifeforms will join the other 14 factions.”
“Although there are 17 top factions, the three of us are indeed much stronger,” Moshen commented. “When counting the number of Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms, the other 14 combined are approximately equal to the three of us combined.”
Xu Jingming was surprised. Only at this moment did he truly understand how powerful the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute was!
A faction established by a Paramount realm expert! A large number of top human evolvers!
“The Primordial Research Inst.i.tute mainly recruits members from Origin lifeforms,” Moshen said. “Eventually, we established a fair recruitment channel using the mysterious land. It’s mainly targeted at geniuses. They have to pa.s.s the tests of the seven planets and gain basic mastery of an opportunity. Moreover, we will review their resumes. They can’t be too old.”
“We only recruit one or two people a year in the mysterious lands of the 34 cosmic sectors. In terms of the Hunter Cosmic Sector alone, we recruit one person every 22 years on average! As for the geniuses who have gained basic mastery of ‘Primordial Star Conjecture,’ we recruit one person every 129 years in the Hunter Cosmic Sector on average!”
“As for you, you’ve gained basic mastery of a core volume of ‘Primordial Star Conjecture.’ That’s a rare occurrence that only happens once in a thousand years in the Hunter Cosmic Sector!” Moshen smiled. “You should realize what this means about your talent.”
Xu Jingming blinked. Am I that much of a genius? Only one person like me is recruited once in a thousand years in the Hunter Cosmic Sector?
“Therefore, remember.” Moshen’s expression turned solemn. “Don’t reveal anything about yourself before you reach Lv. 9.”
“Once exposed—” Moshen said, “The cosmic aliens don’t mind destroying a weak peerless genius.”
Xu Jingming nodded seriously.
Ordinary geniuses might undergo ‘migration’ or be ‘sold off’ by some underground factions. However, most of the factions in the human race didn’t dare touch a peerless genius that the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute valued like Xu Jingming.
However, cosmic aliens could target him. They would think of ways to weaken the human race.
“Understood.” Xu Jingming nodded.
“Peripheral members like you are very talented. You have to be careful before you reach your full potential,” Moshen said. “Only after becoming an Origin lifeform can you have the ability to protect yourself.”
As they spoke, the two of them arrived above an island.
“Including you, there are a total of eight peripheral members on this island.” Moshen looked down. “There are only eight peripheral members in the entire Hunter Cosmic Sector who cultivate the ‘Primordial Star Conjecture!’ They are all arranged to live on this island, so you can get to know each other and discuss.”
“There are only eight of us from the same cosmic sector?” Xu Jingming realized how few people cultivated this legacy.
“The reason why there are so few is that selected geniuses usually break through and become an Origin lifeform in a thousand years,” Moshen explained. “The probability of geniuses who cultivate ‘Primordial Star Conjecture’ breaking through and becoming an Origin lifeform is about 90%! Those who fail mostly die from accidents in reality.”
Xu Jingming was stunned.
The probability of becoming an Origin lifeform was about 90%? Notwithstanding death, the probability of a breakthrough was even higher.
It had to be known that to ordinary cosmic citizens, becoming an Origin lifeform was an intangible goal.
“That’s why it’s ranked as one of the three strongest human legacies,” Moshen said. “The strongest legacy, coupled with peerless geniuses and the precious resources provided by the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute, naturally give you guys a high chance of breaking through.”
Whoosh!
A smart bot from the island flew over to welcome them.
“This is your butler,” Moshen introduced.
“Greetings, Master. I’m Hunter 1027.” The robot bowed respectfully to Xu Jingming but ignored Moshen.
“This butler only listens to your orders,” Moshen explained. “It will tell you about some of the peripheral members’ privileges and the matter of accepting the legacy of ‘Primordial Star Conjecture.’ I’ll head back to the observational s.p.a.ce for now! If you encounter any problems, you can ask me. I’ve already added your personal contact number.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother Moshen.” Xu Jingming was very impressed.
Senior Brother Moshen was a Lv. 10 expert, yet such an important figure didn’t put on any airs in front of him.
Moshen nodded and disappeared.
“Master, your residence is over there.” The robot butler pointed at a residence in the southeast corner of the island.
“Let’s go.” Xu Jingming flew to his residence with the robot butler, his heart filled with pride.
I’ll have the best opportunities and resources. I have to seize them, Xu Jingming thought to himself. A peerless genius from a weak civilization like him had given his all before obtaining such a precious opportunity in the last few days of the exploration! Perhaps this was Earth’s only chance for many years to come. It didn’t allow him to slack off at all; he had to seize it!
