Swallowing the Stars: Level 1, One Talent, Invincible Chaos Origin

Chapter 23, One Year

Jiang Ming stood aside, waiting for Babata's next move.

Data streams appeared on the spaceship's screen.

Nearly half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Babata's image suddenly appeared on the screen.

"Alright, the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship has now been breached."

Upon hearing Babata's words, Luo Feng asked curiously.

"Can it move now?"

"Of course, the spaceship is in good condition and can move as long as it is replenished with energy."

"Luo Feng, I'm going to a star to cultivate in seclusion. After I come out of seclusion, we'll set off together into the universe."

Spend quality time with your family during this period; who knows what the stars might hold for us?

Jiang Ming said to Luo Feng.

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Luo Feng nodded. The unknown of the starry sky represents an uncertain future.

While we're still on Earth, we should naturally make some good arrangements for our family.

Jiang Ming and Luo Feng stepped out of the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship. Jiang Ming raised his hand to put it away, and then took it away along with the mothership outside.

He still managed to plunder quite a few good things from Babata, including a space ring with an extremely large capacity, which made things much more convenient for Jiang Ming.

"I should be out of quarantine within a year."

After leaving a message, Jiang Ming departed, boarding the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship and activating stealth mode to travel to the star.

With the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship traveling at near-light speed, Jiang Ming arrived at the star in less than ten minutes.

Beneath the Wheel of Time, Jiang Ming took out the energy crystal and began to allow the Wheel of Time to absorb the energy from the crystal and operate.

The energy provided by the energy crystals is of higher quality and more efficient for the time wheel. With enough energy crystals burned, supplemented by some stellar energy, a 0.1 cubic meter area can be accelerated by 40 times.

There was no other way; we were just too poor.

Even energy crystals should be used sparingly.

Upon entering the time-accelerated state, Jiang Ming did not rush to cultivate, but instead closed his eyes and meditated.

He was reminiscing, recalling Luo Feng's many past experiences and the choices he made in the face of numerous difficulties.

As a time traveler, he knew that Luo Feng's final achievements were incredibly high.

Naturally, he would pay more attention to Luo Feng. But no matter how Jiang Ming looked at it, without spoiling the plot, he could not have imagined that Luo Feng's achievements could be so high.

Luo Feng was far from being top-tier in terms of aptitude, comprehension, and temperament at that time.

A person's present is necessarily related to their past, and a person's future is also inseparable from their present and past.

Jiang Ming knew that Luo Feng had grown step by step, transformed step by step, and finally reached the peak, but there must have been something playing a role in this process.

Through his observations and analysis of Luo Feng's past, he saw something terrifying about Luo Feng.

A sincere and pure heart.

Luo Feng's mindset allows him to remain steadfast in his original intentions, regardless of any temptations he faces.

Whether it's status, power, money, beauty, strength, or even life.

None of this could shake his resolve.

This pure and genuine mindset may not be the key to Luo Feng's rise to the top.

But it is definitely an important component.

"Those who learn from me will live, those who imitate me will die. Luo Feng's true nature cannot be imitated."

Jiang Ming realized that everyone should have their own path.

That path is not my path.

"I wonder what it would have been like if those ancient people on Earth had embarked on a path of cultivation."

Jiang Ming thought to himself.

After figuring things out, Jiang Ming didn't feel any profound enlightenment, but rather a subtle sense of "so that's how it is."

"Luo Feng has his way, and I, Jiang Ming, have my way."

Jiang Ming smiled nonchalantly and closed his eyes to cultivate.

……

A year passed in the blink of an eye. Jiang Ming stood up from his cultivation state, his eyes flashing with golden light, and his body radiating pure white light.

Under this pure white light, the stellar matter is ignited and assimilated, turning into a pure white color.

Sensing the influence of this pure white light on the outside world, the white light within Jiang Ming's body immediately subsided.

"The third form of the stellar body can only be activated at the lowest level, which is the cosmic level."

This is because it is a powerful force belonging to the domain lord level.

But as my understanding of the fundamental laws of fire deepens, my understanding of talent also increases.

Now, even without relying on my talent, I can wield the first-level Stellar Body technique, and I can even create a secret method from the first-level Stellar Body to teach to others.

Jiang Ming felt the power surging within him when he first activated the third form of his Stellar Body.

"It's time to go. I wonder if Luo Feng and the others are ready after a year."

With that thought in mind, Jiang Ming got up and left.

Jiang Ming no longer needs the protection of the Vulcan clone to leave the corona layer.

Piloting the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship, they returned to Earth in no time.

……

"You're quick on your feet, you already have kids, and two of them at that."

Jiang Ming teased Luo Feng, saying that Luo Feng had worked very hard this year because he wanted to possess the Golden Horned Beast as soon as possible, and now he even had a child.

"hey-hey."

Luo Feng didn't answer, but simply raised his glass and offered a toast.

"Jiang Ming, I wonder what level your strength has reached now?"

Hong was very curious at this moment. Ever since a year ago, Jiang Ming had told the three of them that he would go into seclusion for a year and then take them to the starry sky after he came out of seclusion.

At that time, everyone guessed that Jiang Ming's strength must have improved after he came out of seclusion.

"It's enough for now. Don't worry about encountering anything too difficult to solve."

Jiang Ming didn't explain directly, keeping it a secret.

But from Jiang Ming's attitude, everyone also understood one thing at the same time: Jiang Ming's strength must have made a breakthrough.

And it wasn't a minor breakthrough.

"We're leaving tomorrow, everyone get ready."

Jiang Ming raised his wine glass and addressed the crowd.

"it is good."

……

"These are all the replicable legacies of Meteorite Star and the Golden Horned Beast."

After Luo Feng transmitted all the data to Jiang Ming, he said...

A year ago, Jiang Ming hurriedly went into seclusion, and he also needed time to prepare for the possession, so it was only now that these inheritances had come into Jiang Ming's hands.

Jiang Ming glanced at the inheritance, then made two copies and sent one to Hong and the other to Lei Shen.

"Where's Babata? Why isn't he coming out?"

Jiang Ming noticed that Luo Feng was transmitting data to him manually, so he asked curiously.

"Hehe, she doesn't want to see you."

Luo Feng burst out laughing when he heard Jiang Ming mention this.

Not long after Jiang Ming went into seclusion, Babata realized that she had been tricked.

Countless ancient beings, millions of years old, have been hooked by a young and inexperienced woman, and she's still sulking about it.

"How do you know about Babata?"

Luo Feng was very curious about how Jiang Ming had known about Babata back then.

Upon hearing this, Babata, who was in the virtual space, perked up his ears.

"Because of the spaceship wreckage you bought, someone actually spent two Wood Crystals to trade for that stuff. Who would believe you if you said you were just genuinely interested without using any methods?"

Jiang Ming rolled his eyes and said matter-of-factly.
