Swallowing the Starry Sky Starts with a Sword

Chapter 85: Black Pomegranate Beast, Soul Origin

"You actually let Killing Zone simulate an absolutely perfect opponent for you?"

"During this year, apart from comprehending the field of lightning, have you been endlessly challenging the 'perfect opponent'?"

Listening to Zhou Ning's story.

Babata felt his head buzzing.

“It’s just so ignorant.”

"Too arrogant!"

Indeed, within the killing space, the virtual universe can simulate any opponent.

Humans are all curious, and the so-called 'absolutely perfect opponent' is actually something that most strong people who have used the killing space have tried to simulate.

But, they are definitely not Zhou Ning.

The killing space is very expensive. A first-level star warrior will spend two million Black Dragon coins for one day of use.

Just one day's consumption is enough to buy two first-level star-level warrior slaves.

This also means that the users of Killing Space are an elite group with great backgrounds and a lot of wealth in the universe.

The more elite the genius, the broader their knowledge, and the more they understand how great and untouchable the virtual universe is.

Therefore, almost no one will seriously challenge the 'perfect opponent'.

Because the perfect opponent represents the limit of the computing power of the virtual universe.

Who dares to overestimate his own abilities and challenge the computing power of the entire virtual universe?
".At the beginning, you were able to fight a perfect opponent for dozens of rounds before being defeated?"

Babata was also amazed.

If Zhou Ning's foundation wasn't so high, his swordsmanship and combat experience on Earth would have reached an extremely terrifying level.

If any other elite genius came, they would probably be killed instantly by the "perfect opponent" from the very beginning, and would not be able to last two moves at all, let alone be tempered or improved.

"I have honed my sword skills to 'perfection', which has brought together all my strength. To some extent, it can be considered a secret fighting method that I created myself."

"I guess Mingyu is attracted by my swordsmanship rather than my understanding of the domain."

Zhou Ning pondered, "After signing the contract, I went back to the killing space and set up several opponents with higher realms, but the level of combat secrets was set to the 'elite genius' level."

"If anyone is at the same level as me, I can kill him with one strike."

"I can still kill him with one strike if he is at the fifth level of the domain!"

"He is at the sixth level of his domain. Because his domain is so profound that it exceeds mine, I fought with him for tens of thousands of rounds, which took more than five minutes, before I killed him."

"As for the opponent who was at the seventh level of the domain, he killed me easily."

Babata held his breath when he heard this: "A fourth-level domain can defeat a sixth-level domain?"

"No wonder."

"Your talent in comprehending the field can only be considered as a second- or third-rate genius in the Qianwu Universe."

"But your talent for fighting and killing is definitely one of the best in the Qianwu Universe!"

"At the star level, most of the elite geniuses focus on comprehending the domain and the laws. As for the secret methods? They are basically the secret methods of practicing super strong people."

"Everyone knows that the secret method you create yourself is the most suitable for you."

“But at the star level, few people would create their own secret methods.”

"As for the star level, I don't know if there is anyone who has created a secret method to reach your level of perfection."

"But I can say that in this regard, you are at least in the top ten, no, top five, or top three in the Qianwu Universe!"

The little devil's eyes lit up: "The fourth level of the domain, using the secret method I created, can defeat the sixth level of the domain."

"When you reach the sixth or seventh realm, your combat power will be comparable to that of a super genius at the ninth realm!"

"You know, the difficulty of cultivating the ninth level is more exaggerated than the previous one. Cultivating to the ninth level is probably a hundred times more difficult than cultivating to the seventh level!"

"If you cultivate to the ninth level of the realm, won't you be able to compete with those peerless monsters who have comprehended the laws of origin?"

"Zhou Ning, you are taking advantage of me. No wonder the Black Dragon Mountain Branch gave you such a good contract."

Babata seemed quite excited.

Zhou Ning always manages to give it big surprises.

However, Zhou Ning frowned and brought up the difficulties he encountered in the 'perfect realm'.

"Babata, the closer one gets to the mysteries of the realm and the laws, the colder a practitioner becomes, and the less strong his desires and wills he has?"

Zhou Ning remembered that this was not said in the original book.

But now, he is indeed facing this dilemma.

Hearing this, Babata was stunned. He thought about it for a long time before shaking his head: "I don't know. I have followed your teacher to explore the universe for tens of millions of years. Many of the strong people I have met are indeed very indifferent and cold."

"However, there are also many strong people with very fierce and high-spirited personalities, or they are insidious and cunning, or they value friendship and loyalty."

"What you said, that the closer a strong person is to the law, the less strong his desires and will are, shouldn't be normal."

Zhou Ning pursed his lips and remained silent.

Since this is not a common situation and since he is abnormal, then where is the problem?
"Hey, don't get stuck in a rut."

Babata quickly advised: "You are only at the star level. Whether it is your physical strength, genetic energy, consciousness, will, or soul potential, you are still relatively weak."

“Many of those who comprehend the realm are cosmic-level masters, and those who create their own secret methods or perfect secret methods are even domain masters and realm masters who can do it.”

“Your foundation may be too weak.”

"Perhaps when your soul becomes stronger, you will be able to break free from this shackle?"

When the soul origin becomes stronger
The origin of the soul!

A flash of inspiration, like lightning breaking through thick fog, emerged in Zhou Ning's mind.

"I get it, Babata!"

Then, Zhou Ning's figure disappeared and he logged off from the virtual universe.

Only Babata was left, looking confused.

"What did I just say?"

------------

Inside the Heilongshan spacecraft.

"Is my predicament because my soul origin is not strong enough?"

Zhou Ning's thoughts were in turmoil, but after the 10 million universe coins arrived in his account, he was able to complete his original plan under certain conditions.

Reincarnation Sphere
The reincarnation sphere in his brain can obtain soul light balls by killing powerful creatures.

While absorbing the soul light ball and taking on the memories of living beings, it also nourishes and nurtures the origin of his soul.

Earth period.

Zhou Ning had killed a Beast King before, and the Beast King's light ball nourished his soul to a certain extent, and also provided slight help to his daily practice.

"The reincarnation sphere in my brain, reincarnation in one life, practicing martial arts all the way, opening up the inner world, and comprehending the realm. Many hardships and many factors may also make the origin of my soul far beyond that of ordinary strong people."

The powerful soul origin is also one of the reasons why Zhou Ning was able to hone his swordsmanship to perfection.

How to continue to strengthen the essence of the soul?

Kill living beings.

However, it does not mean killing strong humans or buying strong slaves to kill.

"In the universe, animal husbandry is also very developed."

"To cultivate a star-level human warrior slave, various basic cultivation secrets, training, and management are required."

"Human warrior slaves are extremely intelligent and can handle various things flexibly. They can serve as bodyguards and go out to make money. They are extremely valuable."

"Many livestock planets graze monsters with strong bloodlines. All they need to do is provide food and energy, and they will naturally produce batches of planetary and stellar monsters."

"Monsters are more difficult to tame, have lower intelligence, and are far less useful than human slaves. Naturally, their prices are much lower than human slaves."

"The dumbest kind of monsters, bred only for food and material purposes, are probably worth only a few tenths of the price of human slaves of the same rank."

Zhou Ning entered the virtual universe and searched for various monster products in the animal husbandry and breeding industries, and soon found some suitable targets.

"The Black Pomegranate Beast is widely used as a high-quality food raw material. Its meat and soft tendons are of high edible value. It is one of the high-level edible monster species cultivated by the Black Dragon Mountain Empire."

“Slow in movement, low in intelligence, and huge in size.”

"Planetary-level Black Pomegranate Behemoth, ranging from planetary level one to level nine according to life level, the price is between 50 and 1100 Black Dragon Coins."

"Stellar-level black pomegranate behemoths, ranging from stellar level one to level nine, are worth between 35000 black dragon coins and 1 million black dragon coins."

Cheap, amazingly cheap.

A planetary monster, even if it is a first-level planetary monster, would be considered a king-level monster if it were placed on Earth.

But the lowest price is only 50 Black Dragon Coins per head.

Of course, this is also related to the ability and use of the Black Pomegranate Beast.

Slow and clumsy, large in size, they are only raised for food.

The earth has the special effect of nurturing the souls of living things. I am afraid that the monsters born on the earth are also somewhat special.

For example, the two beast kings in the sea, even if they grow naturally, can barely compete with "Hong" who owns the territory.

If it were in the universe, some "fighting beast" monsters that were specially trained for fighting might even be priced no less than human slaves of the same level.

However, no matter how cheap it is, once you reach the life level of the ninth level of the stellar class.

Even the stupidest food ingredient, the Black Pomegranate Beast, is worth 1 million Black Dragon Coins each.

"fool?"

"It's good to be stupid."

Zhou Ning thought of the Beast King he had killed. The Beast King was raised by Babata using Mu Ya crystals. He was probably much dumber than an ordinary king-level monster.

However, the nourishing and nurturing effect of the Beast King's Light Ball on the soul far exceeds that of ordinary king-level monsters.

Moreover, bearing the memories of that simple Beast King monster would put far less burden on the soul than those of the King-level monsters that had experienced countless battles.

"There are also the Kaka beast, the Dusk Blue Star beast, and the Teinfe giant herring."

There are many cheap monsters of the same type, but Zhou Ning compared the prices and finally selected two monsters.

One is still the black pomegranate behemoth, a star-level ninth-order beast, each worth about 1 million black dragon coins.

There is another kind, called the 'Feimei Land Worm', which is a ninth-level star and is worth 1 million Black Dragon Coins each.

The difference between the two. The black pomegranate giant is more than ten kilometers long and more than two kilometers tall at the shoulder. Its volume is more than a hundred times larger than that of the black pomegranate land worm.

"When I killed the Beast King, his life level was several levels higher than mine, so the Soul Light Ball had a very obvious nourishing effect on me."

"I am now at the fifth level of the star class, and it would be best if I could kill a ninth level monster."

"Ten black pomegranate beasts ordered. Estimated time for delivery to Bituo Jupiter: five days?"

"Phimo land worm, also order ten."

"It's sold on the planet Bituminous. That's great."

Zhou Ning first ordered ten of each, preparing to see whether the size of monsters of the same level would affect the strength of their souls, so that he could choose the most economical one and buy it in large quantities.

“They are slaughtered and then sold as food.”

"The market price difference between a living giant beast and a fresh intact corpse is about 30%."

Zhou Ning browsed the buying and selling prices in the market and calculated: "In other words, for one black pomegranate beast, I would lose about 36 million black dragon coins, but I could get a star-level ninth-level soul light ball."

He currently has 10 million Universe Coins in his account, which is equivalent to more than 30 billion Qianwu Coins and 30 to 40 billion Black Dragon Coins.

Zhou Ning was feeling quite excited and looking forward to it.

"Come and see to what extent my soul essence can be nurtured!"
