Chapter 549
Change
In the Virtual Universe, Primal Region, Bolan's training ground was a world of ice and snow. The snow was deep enough to cover one's knees. Bolan sat cross-legged on the snow, his upper body bare and exposed to the icy air, his eyes closed. “Bolan,” a cold voice echoed. Whoosh! Bolan stood up, snow scattering around him. He turned to look behind him. A tall, slender man with narrow, snake-like eyes, radiating ripples of law throughout his body, appeared in the icy landscape, looking down at Bolan. “Luo Feng has already cleared the seventh level of the Sky-Reaching Bridge. What, are you disheartened?” “Teacher,” Bolan bowed slightly, saying nothing more. Members of the Primal Secret Region are specifically assigned an Immortal being as a teacher, and they can even change Immortal teachers according to their needs! The one before him was a Marquis-level Immortal. “Foolish, ridiculously foolish.” The man’s cold eyes swept over Bolan. “Are you still foolishly clinging to your initial idea?” “Teacher, I’ve come to a realization,” Bolan bowed slightly. “Speak,” the cold man said. “I admit, I was arrogant in the past, overly confident in myself,” Bolan said in a low voice. “For my cultivation of the ‘Cosmic Chaos Tablet,’ I’ve decided to focus on the spatial law lineage.” “This is the wisest choice!” A faint smile appeared on the cold man’s face. It was like parents making decisions for their children, and the children stubbornly holding their own opinions. But… when the children grew up, most would realize that the path their parents had set for them was actually the right one. The same principle applied here. Bolan’s decisions were usually very wise. In his youth, many powerhouses weren't as intelligent as him, and his choices had always been correct. However… regarding the choice of which Chaos Tablet to study in Chaos City, the ones who offered Bolan advice were a group of Immortals, and even some Universe Nation Lords who were concerned about the fall of geniuses. How profound was the foresight of Immortals and even Universe Nation Lords? Their long lifespans allowed them to witness the journeys of countless geniuses. Their advice… truly stood the test of time! Perhaps— If Bolan had persisted in his old ways, he might still become a super powerhouse among Immortals tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years later. But Luo Feng, his contemporary, would likely have left him far behind by then. “Your spatial talent is the most astonishing I’ve ever seen,” the cold man said icily. “Even compared to those legendary geniuses, in terms of ‘spatial talent’ alone, you are Elite Tier. Your current decision is very wise! You must be grateful to have Luo Feng as a rival in your generation!” “Because he awakened you,” the cold man stated. Bolan remained silent, but a peculiar glint appeared in his eyes. Luo Feng, huh? “Since you’ve made your choice, then let’s begin according to my teaching plan,” the cold man said. The ‘Cosmic Chaos Tablet’ involves cultivating both space and time. Yet, even after billions of years, how many can develop both time and space simultaneously with comparable speed? Therefore, there are three ways to comprehend the ‘Cosmic Chaos Tablet’. One is to prioritize time, with space as a supplement. Another is to prioritize space, with time as a supplement. And a third is to cultivate both time and space in combination. The third method, if successful, is the most exaggerated and abnormal. Bolan had previously chosen this third path. But now, he had chosen the path of prioritizing space, with time as a supplement. With the right path chosen… The speed of progress would truly be astonishing! “Luo Feng.” “Luo Feng, hurry over.” “Crazy, come to Wuka’s place.” Luo Feng, who was engrossed in reading the third volume of ‘Essays on Space-Time’ and deeply contemplating its insights, continuously received emails from Wuka and Rong Jun. The two of them, worried about disturbing Luo Feng’s cultivation, had sent emails instead. His virtual assistant, Babata, would inform Luo Feng of new emails at an opportune moment, depending on his situation. “Those two, so eager to find me?” Luo Feng shook his head with a smile. He then darted out onto the balcony, flew directly into the air, and then swooped down towards Wuka’s manor, which was not far away. Inside the living room. Wuka and Rong Jun were both seated, with fine wine on the table before them. “Crazy is here,” Rong Jun stood up. “Luo Feng, Luo Feng!” Wuka was the first to rush out, giving Luo Feng a fierce bear hug. “What are you doing?” Luo Feng, startled, dodged aside, smiling at Wuka. “So enthusiastic?” “Crazy, you’re absolutely incredible!” Wuka grabbed Luo Feng’s hand and dragged him into the living room. Luo Feng saw the fine wine on the living room table, stored in what looked like jade bamboo. Noticing the two complex characters ‘Lei Yu’ on the jade bamboo, he couldn’t help but be surprised, exclaiming, “Wuka, you stingy fellow, you actually splurged on Lei Yu Wine?!” In reality, even Zhenyan King would be reluctant to casually drink Lei Yu Wine. Even in the Virtual Universe, a single pot of Lei Yu Wine cost a staggering 32 mixed-element units! That meant one pot of wine was equivalent to the entire fortune of a Sector Lord, or dozens of star system territories! However, among Luo Feng, Rong Jun, and Wuka, Wuka was undoubtedly the wealthiest. There was no helping it; his father held a high position. Wuka’s father was one of the top figures in the Savage Universe Nation. But even so, he wouldn’t dare to spend money so recklessly. “What’s a pot of wine?” Wuka enthusiastically twisted open the black agarwood stopper of the jade bamboo wine pot, then poured wine for Luo Feng. The liquid was semi-transparent, with faint, crystal-clear dewdrops seemingly suspended within it, and fine electric currents flowed between the ‘dewdrops’ in the wine. Although this Lei Yu Wine didn’t possess the miraculous effects of altering physique and genes as it did in reality. However, from the perspective of physical and spiritual sensation, it was identical. Drinking Lei Yu Wine in the Virtual Universe was an extremely extravagant act! “It’s just a pot of wine, isn’t it? Brother, you clearing the seventh level of the Sky-Reaching Bridge is truly exhilarating, so satisfying, so satisfying!” Wuka couldn’t help but exclaim. “Uh, you all know already?” Luo Feng was taken aback. “Crazy, you’re shameless,” Rong Jun, who was thoroughly enjoying the Lei Yu Wine beside him, suddenly interjected. “Shameless indeed, not even mentioning something like this. Luckily, the supervisor Bafen sent us an email,” Wuka said. “Damn it,” Luo Feng glared, “Bafen actually…” “Hahaha, that email came at the perfect time,” Wuka quickly added. “You didn’t see it, but ever since the Virtual Universe Company sent an email a while ago with some information about the qualification battles, the Primal Region, which used to be relatively peaceful, suddenly became much more aggressive.” “Everyone is competing, afraid of being kicked out to the Tiandi Secret Region!” Wuka shook his head. “Those old-timers look down on us eight newcomers, and I don’t like it one bit, so I often go and fight them!” “Often fight?” Luo Feng was surprised. Wuka had only cleared the fifth level of the Sky-Reaching Bridge, while among the 30 veteran Universe-level members, 5 had cleared the seventh level, and the other 25 had cleared the sixth level. “What, can’t we fight? We Manka Star people don’t have the phrase ‘bow down and admit defeat.’ If we lose temporarily, we’ll fight again later,” Wuka snorted coldly. “Those idiots, each one of them full of themselves, weren’t they still injured by me in the end? But that’s not the most satisfying part. The most satisfying part was… when that group of them saw the email, the one with the news that you, Luo Feng, had cleared the seventh level.” “You didn’t see their expressions, they were absolutely priceless.” “Many were shocked, their eyes wide, some even exclaiming it was impossible,” Wuka laughed heartily. “I was over there roaring with laughter, mocking them, and they couldn’t even retort. It was so satisfying! Afterward, I bought Lei Yu Wine to reward our great hero among the newcomers, who is now the number one among our current batch of newcomers.” “The temporary number one,” Rong Jun, beside him, showed a faint smile and looked at Luo Feng. “Yes, the temporary number one,” Wuka nodded repeatedly. Luo Feng smiled. The reason Luo Feng got along so well with Wuka and Rong Jun was that they all shared a similar trait deep down: an unyielding spirit. They might fall behind temporarily, but they wouldn’t get discouraged; instead, they would continuously improve. “Wuka, Rong Jun, I’m planning to continue taking on cultivation missions next,” Luo Feng said. “But I know very little about cultivation missions. Do you have any suggestions?” “Cultivation missions, of course, the higher the difficulty, the more astonishing the point rewards,” Wuka said. “I have some suggestions. I’ve already completed all 10 mission quotas for these 100 years,” Rong Jun said. “These are things my teacher told me…” The three began to discuss. Luo Feng’s plan was to first clear the seventh level of the Sky-Reaching Bridge. Afterward, he would seize the time to undertake cultivation missions, honing and improving himself through a series of real-world combat experiences and the unique environments of various mission scenarios! After experiencing the Xueluo World mission and reaping great benefits from it, Luo Feng no longer regarded missions as mere ordinary tasks. Behind every mission world, there might be hidden great benefits. It just depended on whether he could obtain them. Of course… the prerequisite was to act within his capabilities! After their chat, Luo Feng had a clearer plan on how to choose his upcoming cultivation missions. “This wine is truly good.” “This feeling is even more wonderful than breaking through to the Universe-level and experiencing a life-leap.” Luo Feng closed his eyes, feeling the changes in his body’s genes and the comfort in his soul. Of course, these were all simulated in the Virtual Universe; if it were real Lei Yu Wine, it wouldn’t be something Wuka and his friends could afford. Only powerful beings like Zhenyan King and Tongnan King would occasionally indulge in such luxury after countless years. “The wine was great, but I should go to class now. Today’s lesson is being lectured by a King-level Immortal, and it’s very suitable for me,” Luo Feng said, standing up. “Alright, no need to see you off.” “Go on.” Rong Jun and Wuka both lay on the sofa, savoring the taste of the Lei Yu Wine, completely unwilling to get up. Cultivation should be pursued with all one’s might, but when there’s an occasional luxury, one should naturally immerse themselves and enjoy it. “Those two guys,” Luo Feng shook his head with a smile, then transformed into a streak of light, flying directly out and soaring into the sky. Meanwhile, in another manor in the Primal Region. “Today’s lesson describes the method of combining the two fundamental laws of space and metal. Luo Feng will definitely attend. Mo Yilin, A Shi… you two also go to class. Seize the opportunity to find an excuse to fight Luo Feng, and probe his true strength. Knowing some of his ultimate moves will allow us to be prepared, and then the qualification battles… will be much easier!” said the man in the silver-gray robe.
