Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Chapter 126 The Venerable One's Expectations

Inside the main hall.

Clad in azure battle armor, with flowing purple hair and a figure perfectly outlining her exquisite curves, King Longyu smiled and said, "Congratulations, Venerable One, on taking on an excellent personal disciple!"

He was under the command of the Nine Swords Venerable.

She naturally hoped that the number of powerful individuals under the Venerable One's command would continue to increase, so that he would have enough say. Whether it was going to explore the secret realms of the universe or assigning tasks, having powerful individuals of the same level to trust by his side would make things twice as effective.

In this universe.

The most reliable relationship is that between master and disciple.

Secondly, there are subordinates under the same command.

Although Shen Ping is currently only at the Hengxing level, his potential is outstanding. As long as he doesn't perish, with his talent for comprehending and fusing laws, he has a high probability of becoming a King-level Immortal in the future.

Nine Swords Venerable laughed heartily, "Alright, disciple, come with me."

"Yes."

The two arrived one after the other at a secluded courtyard behind the main hall.

After sitting down.

The Nine Swords Venerable said, "Disciple, now that you have become my disciple, I will naturally guide you on your path of cultivation. I have already seen the video of you crossing the Heavenly Bridge. You are indeed very outstanding in the fundamental laws of space. If I am not mistaken, you began to study the essence of space before you entered the initial universe, right?"

Shen Ping didn't hide anything and nodded in admission, "Yes, teacher. When I was studying the fundamental laws of space, I thought that if I understood the essence of the fundamental laws of space, it would be much easier to comprehend them."

Nine Swords Venerable sighed, "I have read your information. Your previous teacher was only a peak Realm Lord and had no ability to teach you to comprehend the essence of space. So you figured out the essence on your own, which is extremely commendable... Even in the initial universe, with many diagrams and secret techniques, as well as the assistance of the Chaos Stele, it was still incredibly difficult to figure it out. There was once an outstanding genius named Lian Luo who analyzed the essence of space and spent three thousand years in the initial universe to finally comprehend it and create it himself."

"You have already studied the essence of space at the Hengxing level. Although you have not fully mastered it, you should have discovered at least sixty essential mysteries. In terms of talent, you are much stronger than Lian Luo. Moreover, you have also comprehended the law of fire-space fusion."

Shen Ping quickly replied, "Teacher, you flatter me."

"No need to be modest."

"Having talent is a good thing. Next, I suggest that you continue to delve into the essence of space and put the Fire-Void Fusion Law aside for now. Once you have fully comprehended the 108 kinds of spatial essence, the first seven diagrams of the Nine Universe Chaos Stele will be very clear to you. After that, it will be easier for you to study the Fire-Void Fusion Law, and it will not distract you."

The Nine Swords Venerable laughed and said, "As for how to study it, given your current level of understanding of the laws, I suggest you go and take a look at the rooftop of the residence where Lian Luo used to live, and then buy the 'Time and Space Notes' to help you comprehend it."

"Although you have grasped the essence of space, your application and execution are far too crude. This book, 'Notes on Time and Space,' contains tens of thousands of secret techniques, enough for you to study and cultivate thoroughly."

Speaking of which...

He paused for a moment and continued, "The first 30 years of the initial universe are the most important 30 years. My disciple, you must cultivate diligently. In addition, you have gained more than 500,000 points by passing through the first nine levels of the Heavenly Bridge. Add to that the 100,000 points given to you for free, and you have more than 600,000 points. Make good use of these points... If you have any questions, you can ask the Flame Rift King in the manor, or you can come and ask me directly. Finally, when the 30 years are over, your master will go to the initial universe. I hope that by then you will have comprehended all 108 kinds of spatial essence."

Shen Ping replied, "Yes, teacher."

Leave the Nine Swords Venerable's exclusive plane.

Back at the manor.

All the guards, including Que Ling, offered their congratulations, saying, "Congratulations, Your Highness, on becoming the personal disciple of the Nine Swords Venerable."

Que Ling smiled and said, "Your Highness, the Venerable One instructed me that you can convey any needs you may have through me."

She was originally under the command of the Nine Swords Venerable, and now that Shen Ping has become the Venerable's personal disciple, their relationship is obviously even more harmonious.

Shen Ping nodded, then went to the villa and replied to each email.

……

Consciousness disconnected.

Once again, we return to the virtual universe.

Jiuxingwan Residential Area, Heilongshan Island.

Arrived at the door.

Looking at the familiar surroundings.

Shen Ping breathed a sigh of relief. He preferred being here. He entered the living room, but his wives were not there; only the children were playing.

"dad."

Upon seeing Shen Ping, they rushed over.

There are now many children in the family, unlike before when there were only a few, but only the eldest son and the second son have truly grown up.

I played with the children for a while.

Li Yuewei, Su Yin, An Xueyi, and Brolin all came to the virtual universe.

"Honey, have you entered the primordial universe?"

An Xueyi and Brolin asked curiously, "What was the initial universe like?"

So Shen Ping recounted what he had seen and heard in the initial universe.

"My God, a body that can completely shatter and then reassemble itself? Has the very law of the universe stopped?"

"My grandfather told me that the primordial universe was a very special place; I never imagined there were so many powerful beings there!"

"Truly worthy of being called the primordial universe; even my Black Dragon Mountain royal family ancestor has never been there."

The group chatted for a while.

The wives left one after another. They are very busy now. Even An Xueyi, who usually clung to Shen Ping the most, has joined a major power in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom and is currently working hard to cultivate.

In this regard.

Shen Ping was happy to see this, after all, his wives were not toys, nor were they toys to satisfy his physical needs; they all had their own ideas.

We arrived at the pavilion outside the residential area.

He casually sat on the stone bench and began to ponder. It must be said that his teacher, the Nine Swords Venerable, had very high expectations for him. Although he had guessed that he had reached sixty levels in the analysis of the essence of space, the essence of space became more and more difficult as he progressed.

Without the reward of family prosperity evaluation, he would never have been able to achieve this.

"The reward has now reached the 72nd type, with 36 more essence analyses remaining. Based on the previous pattern of clan rewards, each reward adds 6-10 more essence analyses, which means I need to obtain the Prosperity Rating reward at least six more times!"

To know.

Having comprehended the 108 mysteries of spatial essence, one's understanding of the corresponding fundamental laws of space has reached the 12th level of the Bridge to Heaven, a level that allows one to traverse the cosmic-level Mount Tongtian!

Any genius who can overcome the Tongtian Mountain is an unparalleled genius, appearing only once in countless epochs.

Obviously.

The Nine Swords Venerable's expectation for Shen Ping is... to emerge after tens of millions of epochs!

"With the Chaos Stele to study, plus the 'Chronological Notes,' the immortal teacher Flame Rift King, and the Venerable Ones, I can digest and absorb the rewards from the family evaluation very quickly!"

Previously, digestion and absorption were slow, requiring gradual understanding. However, in the initial universe, the situation is different. Shen Ping can go to the Chaos Stele's secret chamber to study and compare with it, and the speed of understanding and digestion will naturally be much faster.

Therefore, his primary concern now is to continue to maintain the reputation of his family's prosperity.

"Currently, the family's businesses have spread across 10 directly controlled star regions of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. The pace of development is indeed extremely fast. However, due to the limited number of family members and descendants, further expansion is somewhat difficult... The same applies to the family's foundation!"

The development of a family is always a step-by-step process.

The Shen family's rise to prominence was entirely built on Shen Ping's soaring fame, so their weaknesses became increasingly apparent as time went on.

After all, it's impossible for all the personnel assigned to the business to be from the An family. Some of the direct descendants of the Shen family must be used. But the key point is that, to date, the number of the Shen family's bloodline descendants has not exceeded fifty, and most of them are children.

"We must ensure that our sons Shen Yu, Shen Cheng, Shen Chen, and Shen Yong contribute significantly to the family!"

Now, the resources he has accumulated through family rewards are immense. Even if he can't use the most precious and supreme treasures, the laser guns, railguns, and a large number of life fruits and other resources are enough to rapidly improve his children's strength.

It can assist immortal plant life, metal life, and pet beasts, etc., to break through to the domain lord level within a hundred years.

Because breaking through to the Domain Lord level doesn't consume many resources, even going from Domain Lord to World Lord only requires a maximum of a hundred thousand Chaos Units. He can easily use up all his resources by selling some precious treasures!

We couldn't sell them before.

Now that he has the Nine Swords Venerable as his teacher, he dares to sell anything except some restricted resources!

Just as I was thinking about it.

A graceful figure appeared in the pavilion.

It was Qi Yue'er.

Her body was something Shen Ping was obsessed with; her figure was almost perfectly proportioned, hot and voluptuous, and more importantly, she had a gentle, delicate charm reminiscent of the water towns of Jiangnan.

It's a pity that we only had a few days back then.

For the three years of their journey, the other party stayed in the Qianwu Secret Realm and could only visit Black Dragon Mountain Island occasionally.

"Moon, you've come."

Shen Ping held Qi Yue'er in his arms, his hand involuntarily grasping the semi-circular curve of the battle suit. In the virtual universe, the touch was very realistic, but it was impossible to truly nurture bloodlines.

Qi Yue'er's cheeks flushed. "Honey, I heard you've been accepted as a disciple by the Nine Swords Venerable?"

She called out, sounding a little unaccustomed to it.

Shen Ping laughed and said, "What, are you here to congratulate me?"

Qi Yue'er hummed in agreement, her eyes filled with joy and excitement. "That's a powerhouse at the level of a cosmic ruler. My grandfather, Marquis Yin Sheng, can't even see a ruler normally. Congratulations, husband."

Shen Ping pinched Qi Yue'er's delicate nose. "Your grandfather must be very glad that you were sent to my side, right?"

"Yes, and she also told me to serve you well."

Qi Yue'er snorted, "I don't want to, I want to surpass you."

"Commendable courage."

"Hehe, I know it's difficult for me, but I can surpass you in another area..."

Qi Yue'er whispered in her ear.

Shen Ping's eyes lit up. "Yue'er, it hasn't been that long since we last met, and you're even more... sullen than before! I like it!"

Qi Yue'er used to be very shy, but I didn't expect her to say such things this time. It seems that becoming the personal disciple of the Nine Swords Venerable has indeed stimulated this genius.
