“There is a saying on Earth,” Luo Feng murmured, “flowers grown in greenhouses may seem beautiful but cannot withstand wind and rain. They are delicate and fragile.”
“You’re right,” the little demon agreed.
“It’s the same principle as tempering steel,” the demon Babata mused. “Earthlings need vaccines to resist diseases. So Luo Feng, just like how Earthlings use vaccines, you shouldn’t start too intense. Begin with something easier and gradually increase the difficulty.”
“No rush. For now, I don’t plan to take on training missions,” Luo Feng said. “I still need to deeply contemplate and internalize my experiences from Chaos City. Plus, I need to soak in the nutrient tank.”
“Alright,” Babata nodded with a smile.
In the beginning, when Babata chose Luo Feng as the heir of Yimo Star, who could have imagined that Luo Feng would reach this point? Back then, there were concerns that the heir’s identity might provoke jealousy and greed from some Monarchs. But now, with Luo Feng’s status, even ordinary Immortals dare not act recklessly. Even the Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain must treat him with courtesy.
When Luo Feng enters the ‘Primordial Secret Realm,’ even the leader of his personal guard will be an Immortal!
At that time, even the God King of the Black Dragon Mountain, the sacred land of the Black Dragon Empire, must show utmost respect to Luo Feng.
“Back-end management.”
Luo Feng gently clicked and closed the back-end management file.
Life, study, and training—Virtual Universe Company provides the best conditions.
Whether one falls midway, gets stuck at the peak of Domain Lord until their time is up, or becomes an Immortal—it all depends on personal effort.
“I now have 30,360 points,” Luo Feng opened the treasure vault folder, looking at the many categories such as ‘Materials,’ ‘Rare Treasures,’ ‘Secret Techniques,’ ‘Weapons,’ and so on. Suddenly, a thought struck him.
Right.
The treasure vault contains all sorts of wonders. Yet the most valuable ship he owns, the Yimo Star, cannot even be used properly—it is extremely difficult to repair. At least not in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain. Perhaps the Qianwu Cosmic Nation could manage to repair it if they pooled their resources. But surely, this ‘treasure vault’ must have what he needs.
“Ba Ba Ta, check if the items in this treasure vault can be gathered to repair the Yimo Star,” Luo Feng said eagerly.
“There are!” Babata, the demon, lived up to its intelligence and instantly gathered the information.
“Oh?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but feel delighted.
The Yimo Star, a ship so formidable that even Immortals would struggle to breach it. In battles between Immortals, the most they could leave were fist-shaped dents inside the ship. Back then, his master, the Yimo Star’s owner, Hu Yanbo, perished only because his opponent used soul attacks. With this ship, he would truly be formidable.
Soul attacks?
He could retreat his other two bodies into his inner world, relying solely on his Mosha Clan clone. Since the Mosha Clan has no soul, they are immune to soul attacks!
“Key materials can be exchanged through the ‘treasure vault’,” Babata explained. “Moreover, you can use the ‘life section’ in the back-end management to request technicians from the Virtual Universe Company to perform the repairs. You provide the materials, and the technicians will repair it for free.”
“How many points?” Luo Feng asked urgently.
“About 560,000 points,” Babata replied.
“560,000?” Luo Feng’s eyes widened.
“That’s not much,” Babata said. “If you were to buy it with money outside, it would cost around 80,000 Primordial Units.”
Luo Feng was stunned.
The purchasing power of points was indeed staggering.
“Ba Ba Ta, how much would it cost to build a Yimo Star?” Luo Feng asked.
“About 3.6 million Primordial Units!” Babata replied.
“Damn!” Luo Feng couldn’t help but curse softly. “Would the entire Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain even be worth that much if sold?”
“Individually selling off star systems isn’t expensive. But selling the entire Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain would be far more costly. The price would be much higher, estimated between 300,000 to 1 million Primordial Units, depending on the market. Some auctions might be higher, some lower,” Babata explained.
The entire Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain, sold as a whole, would still be worth far less than a single Yimo Star!
“That’s perfectly normal,” Babata scoffed. “The Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain is the private property of the Immortal of the Black Dragon Mountain, the sacred land. And that Immortal isn’t even as powerful as your master! Your master paid an extremely high price to construct the Yimo Star. It’s perfectly natural for the Yimo Star to be more valuable than an entire star domain. Plus, the Yimo Star is incredibly sturdy, capable of withstanding material attacks. And your master specialized in soul techniques, so with this ship, it’s extremely safe!”
“He still died in the end,” Luo Feng shook his head.
“His opponent was an Immortal at the King-level, also specializing in soul techniques,” Babata quickly added. “If he had specialized in physical combat, he wouldn’t have been able to kill your master.”
“The Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain is merely a territory.”
“But the Yimo Star is a life-saving ship. Which is more important? It’s obvious!” Babata said.
…
Whether it’s 560,000 points or 80,000 Primordial Units,
They were both astronomical figures for Luo Feng, far exceeding his current points.
…
In the depths of the universe, at the core of the Primordial Secret Realm,
Among the many fragments of stars orbiting the massive icy planet, fragment number 80389081 saw a spaceship land on its stony surface.
“Prince Luo Feng, the precious nutrient solution inside this tank is enough for a Cosmic-Level One to ascend to Cosmic-Level Nine with just a third of it,” a respectful blue-haired man in a white coat said. “To be safe, we’ve prepared a bit extra.”
“Alright,” Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction.
This nutrient tank resembled the ones he had previously purchased, but the nutrient solution was undoubtedly of a higher grade. Moreover, it was not something available for sale outside—even if it were, Luo Feng couldn’t afford it.
…
Hua!
The lid of the nutrient chamber slid open automatically, unveiling a reservoir filled to roughly one-fifth of its capacity with a pale violet liquid. An imperceptible wave of frigid air caused Luo Feng’s brow to furrow slightly. Extending his hand, he gingerly dipped his fingers into the nutrient solution—instantly, a bone-chilling cold surged through his veins, stirring silent astonishment within him. The temperature had to be at least eighty or ninety degrees below zero.
Yet, the moment his fingers touched the nutrient solution, the cells within his fingers seemed to rejoice.
“Such a cold nutrient solution? Yet the effects appear extraordinary,” Luo Feng pondered. Without a second thought, he shed all his garments, stepped into the tank, and reclined. The icy, lavender-hued solution enveloped his entire form. The peculiar substance began permeating his skin, seeping into his muscles, bones, membranes, and internal organs…
From the inside out, his entire body was undergoing astonishing changes. For an ordinary person, advancing from Cosmic-Level One to Nine might take hundreds or even thousands of years. But with the immense investment by the Virtual Universe Company, such transformation could be achieved in just a few months.
As for the coldness of the nutrient solution? For a Cosmic-Level cultivator, such a temperature had no effect.
…
The lid closed again.
…
In the Virtual Universe, at Villa 1136 in the Primordial District,
“It’s truly different. Not only does it nourish my entire body, but even my mental energy is continuously growing stronger. Unbelievable,” Luo Feng sat at his desk, opened the laptop screen in front of him, and marveled. “To enable both body and soul to ascend from Level One to Level Nine… truly amazing.”
On the screen, Luo Feng glanced at his courses.
“I won’t listen to other courses. I’ll focus more on Space Origin and Metal Origin,” Luo Feng had no intention of delving into other areas. Human energy is limited, and his two main clones were naturally suited for these two areas, so there was no need to waste time on areas he wasn’t good at.
“There’s a class tomorrow night about the Metal Origin taught by an Immortal King-level teacher. Hmm, I should attend.”
Without hesitation, Luo Feng jumped from the balcony next to his study, his figure flickering mid-air, and directly arrived at his private training ground not far away, beginning his cultivation.
…
He would need to soak in the nutrient tank for more than three months. During this time, Luo Feng either practiced in the training ground, deeply contemplating the insights he had gained in Chaos City, or attended lectures. However, to be honest, although other members of the Primordial District valued some courses, Luo Feng found something after attending them—
The effect of the lectures was not as good as the teachings from his master, Zhenyan Wang.
Being with Zhenyan Wang for twenty years meant that occasionally some courses could impress Luo Feng, but most of them were just average.
After all,
The public lectures were aimed at all members of the Primordial District.
Whereas Zhenyan Wang’s guidance was personalized, tailored specifically to Luo Feng’s circumstances. Moreover, Zhenyan Wang was nearly at the level of a Cosmic Nation Ruler, so naturally, his teachings were far superior to general courses.
…
“My progress is clearly much slower than when I was in Chaos City,” Luo Feng sat on a chair in his villa, holding a glass of well-mixed fruit wine, frowning. “Moreover, the lectures are obviously not as good as my teacher’s explanations. What should I do?”
Luo Feng wasn’t the only one.
Others had also noticed this issue. Now, the cultivation speed was far slower than in Chaos City. The visible cosmic laws operating in Chaos City… made it easier to refer to and progress quickly.
“Master Luo Feng, you’ve received a call from your teacher,” Babata, perched on his shoulder, shouted.
“My teacher?” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. He quickly stood up, respectfully saying, “Connect the call.”
A screen suddenly appeared before him, displaying Zhenyan Wang, who exuded a fierce aura, his golden fur adding to his domineering presence. On the screen, Zhenyan Wang laughed heartily, “My obedient apprentice, how have you been since leaving Chaos City?”
“My cultivation speed has slowed down,” Luo Feng shook his head.
“Haha…”
Zhenyan Wang laughed even more joyfully, “That’s normal. Chaos City has three treasures, and the cultivation speed there is ten times faster than outside! Everyone who leaves Chaos City faces this issue. However, your master has a solution.”
“Really?” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. “Please tell me, Master!”
“If you could frequently study the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Stele,’ your progress would likely be even faster than in Chaos City,” Zhenyan Wang said.
“Of course,” Luo Feng quickly agreed, then shook his head in resignation. “Unfortunately, the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Stele’ offers rare opportunities for cultivation, only once every so often, and each time only for seven days. Even so, each cultivation session yields great gains. If I could cultivate it frequently, even outside Chaos City, my progress would be astonishing.”
Luo Feng’s eyes lit up: “Does Master have a way for me to cultivate the Chaos Stele?”
“No, the 52 Chaos Steles exist only in Chaos City,” Zhenyan Wang said.
“So what does Master mean…” Luo Feng was puzzled.
“In the ‘Secret Techniques’ section of the treasure vault in the Virtual Universe Company, there is a book called ‘Reflections on Time and Space,'” Zhenyan Wang explained. “This book was written by the creator of the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Stele.'”
“You mean the ‘Reflections on Time and Space,’ one of the most expensive books in the treasure vault, priced at over a hundred billion points?” Luo Feng’s eyes widened. He had browsed the treasure vault before, and in the ‘Secret Techniques’ section, there were some extremely expensive techniques at the end.
‘Reflections on Time and Space’ required a full 100 billion points!
A price so astronomical that Luo Feng could only look up to it in awe. Those books with exorbitant point costs, Luo Feng didn’t even bother to look at them—100 billion points!
“Haha, don’t get excited. Even I, your master, can’t afford this set of ‘Reflections on Time and Space,'” Zhenyan Wang chuckled.
