Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

Chapter 273 Stability

Ding!

The nutrient chamber lid opened automatically, revealing a pale purple liquid that filled about one-fifth of the chamber's volume. An invisible chill emanated from the liquid, which piqued Jiang Chen's curiosity.

Curious, Jiang Chen reached out and touched the nutrient solution. A chill ran through him, startling him; it must have been at least minus eighty or ninety degrees Celsius.

At the same time, when the fingers touch the nutrient solution, the cells inside the fingers seem to cheer with joy.

"This nutrient solution is so cold. But the evolution effect seems amazing," Jiang Chen thought to himself.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen stripped naked and went straight into the cabin to lie down, where the cold, pale purple nutrient solution enveloped his entire body.

The strange substance inside the nutrient tank began to seep into Jiang Chen's body along his skin, penetrating his muscles, bones, membranes, and internal organs.

In an instant, Jiang Chen's entire body, from the inside out, was changing at an astonishing speed. It would normally take hundreds or thousands of years for an ordinary person to go from the first to the ninth level of the universe, but the Virtual Universe Company, at a huge cost, was able to accomplish all of this in just a few months.

As for the nutrient tank's frigid temperature, it has no effect on a cosmic-level powerhouse.

Ding!

The hatch of the nutrient tank was closed again.

Virtual universe, the original area, Jiang Chen's manor.

"The nutrient tanks of the Virtual Universe Company are truly something else. Not only do they nourish my entire body, but they're even constantly strengthening my mental power. It's incredible."

Jiang Chen knew about the effects of the nutrient capsule, but he didn't expect the effects to be so amazing.

Sitting at my desk, I opened my laptop screen and felt a mix of emotions.

"To be able to elevate both body and soul from the first to the ninth rank is truly impressive, remarkable indeed."

On the screen, Jiang Chen is reviewing some recent courses.

"Don't listen to other courses; focus on the fundamentals of space and fire."

"Oh, and you can also listen to the explanations of wind and water, which you haven't fully grasped yet, but the main focus should be on the laws of space!"

Jiang Chen naturally wanted to delve into other areas, such as fire, water, wind, and space.

Unfortunately, human energy is limited, and one must make certain choices.

Moreover, since his clone is proficient in fire and space, there's no need to waste time studying what he's not good at.

Space comes first, followed by the fundamental law of fire, and then the fundamental laws of water and wind.

"Wow, there's a class tomorrow night? It's about the origin of fire? And it's taught by a King-level Immortal."

"Hmm, I can go listen to it."

Jiang Chen then leaped off the balcony next to the study, his figure flashing several times in mid-air before arriving at his own private training ground not far away, where he began to cultivate.

He would be soaking in the nutrient tank for more than three months. During this time, Jiang Chen would either be in the training grounds to thoroughly understand and comprehend the things he had learned from "Chaos City" or attending classes.

However, to be honest, although the other members of the Primordial District took some courses quite seriously, Jiang Chen discovered something after listening to them.

The effect of listening to lectures on my own is not as good as that of my own teacher, "Kandri".

He spent 20 years by Kandri's side, and his senior brother, who was also a King of Immortality, often provided him with guidance.

As a result, although some courses occasionally caught Jiang Chen's eye, most of them were not very effective.

There's nothing we can do about it.

The open class is a lecture given to all members of the Primordial District.

While Kandri's guidance to Luo Feng was individual, the senior brother he called over could also provide specialized guidance based on Jiang Chen's situation.

Moreover, Kandri is a being more powerful than ordinary cosmic rulers, so the effect is naturally better than ordinary courses.

"My progress is significantly slower than in Chaos City." Jiang Chen sat in a chair in his manor, eating a bright red fruit, but his brows were furrowed.

"And those courses were clearly not as good as the ones the teacher taught me, what should I do?"

"I can't slow down."

"If you slow down, you'll be overtaken by others."

"Slow down, and the time it takes for you to become immortal will shrink."

However, it wasn't just Jiang Chen.

Everyone else has noticed this problem; their cultivation speed is now far slower than it was in Chaos City.

The manifested operation of the cosmic laws in Chaos City, along with the Chaos Stele, provide valuable references, making progress remarkably rapid.

"Master, it's a call invitation from your teacher," Hill suddenly called out from his shoulder.

"Teacher? This is just the right time!" Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up, speaking with humble politeness, "Quickly, answer it!"

A screen appeared out of thin air before him, displaying the kind-looking, three-eyed old man, Kandri, who seemed to possess an unseen power over space.

The vertical eye on Candrine's forehead naturally evokes a sense of closeness.

On the screen, Kander smiled slightly and said, "I've been busy with some things lately, so I only recently had time to contact you. How have you been, my disciple, since leaving Chaos City?"

"This place is not bad, but I feel that my comprehension speed has slowed down a lot," Jiang Chen sighed.

Kander smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "That's normal. Chaos City has three treasures that allow for comprehension ten times faster than the outside world."

"Everyone who leaves Chaos City will encounter this problem: they will feel that their comprehension speed has slowed down a lot."

"However, the teacher does have a solution."

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, secretly delighted, and he immediately said, "Teacher, please speak."

"If you can frequently study the 'Giant Axe Chaos Stele,' your progress will probably be faster than it was in Chaos City," Kandri said with a smile.

"Of course," Jiang Chen nodded, then looked helpless.

"Teacher, it's a pity that the opportunity to comprehend the 'Giant Axe Chaos Stele' is so rare, only available once a year, and each time for just seven days. But even so, the gains from each comprehension session are immense."

"If one can frequently engage in meditation, even outside of Chaos City, one's progress will be astonishing."

"But there's no Chaos Stele here at all!"

Kander smiled slightly and said, "Yes, but those 52 Chaos Monuments can only be found in Chaos City. Although your teacher, I, guard the Chaos Monuments..."

However, they also lack the ability to directly move the Chaos Stele outside.

"However—in the 'Treasury' of the Virtual Universe Company, within the category of arcane arts, there is a book called 'Nanyun Time and Space,'" said King Zhenyan. "This book is the highest-level book about the Giant Axe Chaos Stele, commissioned by the creator of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele and written by a super being."

"Commissioned?" Jiang Chen was genuinely confused this time. "Teacher, isn't that the exorbitantly priced book written by the creator of the 'Giant Axe Chaos Stele'?"

"No, the creator of the Giant Axe Chaos Monument—we'll talk about that when you become a super being." Kandri shook his head.

Jiang Chen nodded slightly; after all, this was still too far removed from his own reality.

He then considered browsing through the treasury, where at the very end of the secret arts section were some terrifyingly expensive secret arts.

"Nanyun Time and Space" requires a whopping 1 billion points to complete!

A price that would leave all geniuses speechless and only able to look up to it.

Jiang Chen could only look at those incredibly expensive books to satisfy his curiosity; he couldn't afford to buy them.

That's a hundred billion points!

Even if one were to be crowned an immortal king, they couldn't afford that book. It's uncertain whether even a cosmic venerable could afford it. It's estimated that only those powerful cosmic venerables could afford a complete set.
