The birth of a mysterious beast triggered a bloody hunt in the Pacific Ocean, yet humanity on Earth remained completely unaware, and Luo Feng continued his cultivation of the “Nine-Nine Spirit Tempering” within the King-Level intelligent fighter jet.
Time passed, arriving at January 1st, 2059.
In the Mingyue Community, inside Luo Feng’s home.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Wang. My older brother isn’t at home,” Luo Hua smiled politely in the living room, addressing a refined middle-aged man wearing glasses.
“Today is New Year’s Day. Isn’t Congressman Luo at home either?” the middle-aged man seemed surprised.
“Yes, I’m truly sorry,” Luo Hua nodded. “We have other matters to attend to at home, so I won’t be able to entertain you further, Mr. Wang. Next time, I will personally host you.”
“Alright then, I’ll take my leave for now.”
Mr. Wang politely departed.
Watching the figure disappear, Luo Hua shook his head. This was already the twelfth group to come and invite his brother in recent days. Each of them who dared to invite a powerful congressman must have significant influence! Even a family like the Xus, without the relationship through Xu Xin, wouldn’t have the qualifications to directly visit a congressman’s home.
The just-departed Mr. Wang was a representative of a powerful political faction at the highest level of the Chinese government.
“Where exactly has my brother gone?”
Luo Hua stood at the entrance of his courtyard. “People from the Limits Martial Arts Institute have invited him, as have the military, the political sector, and even the HR Alliance. People from Europe have invited him, and people from America have invited him too! It seems… everyone is unaware that my brother has gone out on business.”
“What exactly is my brother doing?” Luo Hua pondered.
…
Probably very few people knew about Luo Feng’s current situation.
On this national holiday of New Year’s Day, while many people were watching the evening gala, inside the intelligent fighter jet parked at the Mingyue Community, the dimly lit cabin faintly glowed as Luo Feng sat cross-legged in deep meditation.
Within his consciousness sea.
“Whoosh, whoosh~~” A brilliant Milky Way formed a vortex, with water swirling violently, creating swirling rings.
The vortex suddenly expanded, and the water became thinner, like a transparent curtain of water.
Whoosh, contraction!
The previously expanded transparent swirling water curtain suddenly contracted, transforming instantly into a massive, rotating water ball! The ball was semi-transparent, faintly glowing with strange rays flickering within the orb, with a few dark golden fragments still mixed in, clearly not yet fully dissolved.
Expansion, contraction!
Again expansion, again contraction!
The ‘water current’ of mental energy pulsed like a heart, expanding and contracting repeatedly, as if it had its own life. In this unique rhythm, the dark golden fragments gradually dissolved, making the entire current stronger.
“Expansion, thin as cicada wings.
Contraction, the water ball becomes clear.
Step Eighty completed!
It’s time to begin step eighty-one, the final step!” Luo Feng was slightly excited. This final step was the most crucial and also the most difficult in the “Nine-Nine Spirit Tempering.”
Within Luo Feng’s consciousness sea.
A completely transparent large water ball continuously rotated, as if a planet was spinning on its axis, without any mist diffusing, and the size of the water ball remained unchanged.
“Begin!”
With Luo Feng’s mental command.
“Boom~~”
In the boundless consciousness sea, the massive transparent water ball began to vibrate from its core, emitting streams of mental energy mist, which penetrated the entire transparent water ball! Ten streams, twenty streams, thirty streams… more and more streams, soon completely covering the transparent water ball.
Time passed, second by second.
Under Luo Feng’s precise control, the transparent water ball underwent subtle changes, and the mist swirling around its surface grew stronger, eventually forming an enormous mist ball, completely obscuring the ‘water ball’ inside.
No one knows how much time passed…
The super mist ball had already grown a hundredfold larger than the original water ball.
“Just on the verge of dispersing, this is the moment!”
“Explode!”
Luo Feng roared in his mind!
“Boom!”
In the boundless consciousness sea, the previously enormous mist ball suddenly exploded outward violently! It was as if a star had undergone a supernova explosion at the end of its life, the mist ball bursting to the extreme! Filling every corner of the consciousness sea. At the peak of the explosion! Then a tremendous suction force emerged at the core of the consciousness sea.
Collapse!
“Whoosh, whoosh~~”
Massive amounts of mist and water currents spiraled into a black hole, rushing madly and gathering into the central point!
“Buzz!”
A tremor rippled through the entire consciousness sea!
Empty and vast, all the mist and water currents vanished. Within the boundless consciousness sea, only a ‘dot’ remained at the core, as if in an infinite universe, there was only this one planet, with a halo surrounding its surface, like a luminous orb.
At the core of the consciousness sea, the sole luminous orb…
…
This was a breathtaking orb of light. Beyond the luminous halo shimmering across its surface, the sphere itself was forged from countless translucent pyramid-shaped crystals—so densely interwoven they coalesced into an entire celestial body! An ethereal and uncanny resonance pulsed ceaselessly from its core, rippling through the void like whispers of forgotten magic.
Whoosh, whoosh~~
In the sea of consciousness, the lone sphere spun ceaselessly upon its axis, emanating an invisible force that rippled outward—permeating Luo Feng’s entire being and stretching far beyond.
“I succeeded!”
“This is the power of a Star-Level cultivator?”
“This orb is the core of a Star-Level cultivator?” With a thought, refined streams of mental energy immediately emanated from the orb, spreading throughout his body.
…
Inside the intelligent fighter jet.
At the moment Luo Feng’s ‘Star-Level mental energy’ spread throughout his body, his previously calm body instantly underwent drastic changes! His bones, bone marrow, meridians, muscles, tendons, skin, and every part of his body were undergoing an inconceivable transformation. His genetic code was rapidly decomposing and recombining!
A transformation of life!
This metamorphosis was more significant than any previous mutation! Back then, in the ruins of the No. 9 ancient civilization, the bald crystal humanoid had said that the leap from Apprentice-Level to ‘Star-Level’ was a transition in the hierarchy of life! Upon reaching Star-Level, one could stop breathing and fly directly through the air…
Only at the Star-Level could one be truly called a martial artist or a mental energy user!
Reaching the Star-Level meant one could wander the universe and at least survive. Without reaching this level, one simply lacked the capability to traverse the cosmos.
“This feeling is amazing.”
As the transformed mental energy triggered physical changes, Luo Feng felt an unprecedented sense of awe. It was as if his body had transformed from a strongman at his peak, unable to grow any further, into an ‘infant’. Every tendon, muscle, and organ had undergone a fundamental transformation!
A transformation in the hierarchy of life!
“Improvements in strength at the Apprentice-Level, from Apprentice-Level 1 (Beginner Warrior) to Apprentice-Level 9 (High War God), are enhancements based on the original body. Reaching High War God is already the limit. Without crossing over, one can never break through.”
“But once that threshold is crossed…”
“My life hierarchy ascends to a higher level, Star-Level 1, gradually improving until Star-Level 9.”
…
Late at night.
Many families in the Mingyue Community had already fallen asleep. The hatch of the intelligent fighter jet parked on the lawn slowly opened.
Swoosh!
A figure shot into the sky and hovered at an altitude of over 300 meters, the black robe fluttering in the wind, with no object beneath his feet.
“This is the Star-Level?”
Luo Feng looked down at the city below while sensing the orb within his consciousness sea.
He finally discovered the true secret of the Star-Level. That ‘orb’ was not simply a core of mental energy but possessed a peculiar ability! One could say it was a ‘miniature planet,’ capable of rotating on its axis and having its own magnetic field. This miniature planet within the consciousness sea allowed Luo Feng to stop breathing.
Moreover, it could control the magnetic field around his body according to his will!
By counteracting the Earth’s gravitational pull on himself, he could naturally hover!
By generating a forward magnetic force, he could fly forward rapidly!
In other words—
All Star-Level cultivators could possess their own ‘miniature planet’! They were the masters of this miniature planet! According to the cultivator’s will, they could generate magnetic forces of certain intensity and direction! Thus, they could naturally fly quickly and freely.
However, the magnetic strength of the ‘miniature planet’ was limited, so the flying speed of Star-Level cultivators was also limited.
“No wonder it’s said that the leap from Apprentice-Level to Star-Level is a transformation of life.”
“That’s absolutely correct. Star-Level cultivators can actually have a ‘miniature planet,’ capable of rotating and possessing a magnetic field. Perhaps this ‘miniature planet’ is still weak, but as it grows, it will naturally provide greater assistance to its master, the Star-Level cultivator.”
“Having one’s own ‘miniature planet,’ such cultivators can be considered true humans of the cosmos.” Luo Feng was filled with admiration.
…
In the dark night.
Luo Feng hovered high above the city, arms spread wide!
“The mental energy refined into a ‘miniature crystalline planet,’ condensed to an extreme degree, has significantly enhanced my consciousness.” Luo Feng felt joy in his heart, as if a physically weak person, whose consciousness was also weak and prone to fainting at any moment. A physically strong person, on the other hand, would be alert and clear-minded!
And originally, the mental energy that existed in the form of a river had now been refined into a ‘miniature planet.’
Indeed, this had significantly strengthened Luo Feng’s consciousness.
However, such opportunities were extremely rare. The transformation of life hierarchy—from Apprentice-Level 9th stage to Star-Level, from Star-Level 9th stage to Constant-Star Level, from Constant-Star Level 9th stage to Cosmic Level—these transitions marked true leaps in life. Only then would one’s consciousness receive significant enhancement. Ordinary improvements in strength would not offer such an opportunity.
“Runheaven Shuttle!”
At Luo Feng’s will.
Instantly, the 365 blade fragments embedded in the black vest rapidly flew out, quickly assembling into the Runheaven Shuttle, appearing beneath Luo Feng’s feet.
“My body naturally generates a magnetic field around it.
Plus the propulsion of mental energy!
And with the Runheaven Shuttle underfoot!
I wonder how fast my flight speed will become!” In the night sky above Yangzhou City, Luo Feng, like a deity in the dark, instantly left a trail of afterimages, vanishing from his original position as if he had teleported.
