Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Chapter 135 Luo Feng's Troubles

Two months later.

Virtual Universe, Rain Mountain.

Primordial District.

In a general education class.

Shen Ping chatted casually with Yi Ke, a member of the Domain Lord level. When the topic turned to Shen Ping, Yi Ke couldn't help but say, "The level of your year's Genius Battle is much higher than ours, especially your fellow townsman. It's unbelievable that he passed the 13th level in Chaos City, and his understanding of the laws is even higher than that of the Domain Lord level in the Primal Secret Realm!"

"Whether it's our Primordial Region or the Primal Region, members at the Domain Lord level have generally cultivated for tens of thousands of years!"

Speaking of which...

He lowered his voice and said, "My teacher said that your fellow villager is very likely to become a powerful figure at the level of a cosmic ruler in the future."

Luo Feng smiled but didn't say anything.

Nowadays, there are many people discussing Shen Ping in the public areas of Yuxiang Mountain, after all, passing the thirteenth floor is really terrifying.

Virtual Universe Company hasn't seen such a peerless genius in a long time!

Being in the same era as such a genius means that many people are destined to be mere supporting characters.

of course.

Faced with such a genius, no one felt jealous; they only looked up in admiration.

After the open class ended.

On the way back to the manor, Luo Feng shook his head: "Babata, after leaving Chaos City, on the advice of my teacher and the master, I bought the 'Time and Space Notes,' which is most suitable for comprehending the Nine Universe Chaos Stele. At the beginning, my progress in comprehending and immersing myself in it was indeed very fast. Although it was my accumulation in Chaos City, I always felt that my overall cultivation speed had indeed dropped significantly."

Babata said, "Luo Feng, this is quite normal. Chaos City has the manifestation of laws, and you can also comprehend the Chaos Stele. You can also personally attend classes at the residence of the Immortal King. Your teacher, True Evolution King Hai, personally guides you. With all these factors combined, your comprehension speed is naturally astonishing."

Luo Feng frowned. "I know, but how should I put it? I feel like I've overlooked some things, especially when I was studying the spacetime notes. Those spatial mysteries were so confusing, it's nowhere near as good as..."

He couldn't explain it for a moment.

Babata hesitated, "It's nowhere near as good as the feeling I had when I discussed it with Shen Ping?"

"Yes, yes!"

Luo Feng's eyes lit up. He had been completely immersed in studying and listening to lectures, as well as studying and comprehending the spacetime notes, and had really forgotten about this feeling. Now that Babata mentioned it, he seemed to see the scenes of Shen Ping discussing the essence of space in his mind.

"Before, I just thought the curator had a commanding perspective, which is why the first two images of the Chaos Stele were so clear. But now, the more I think about it, the more I realize that what the curator said, those pieces of information that combined ancient Earth culture, were like wonderful music to my ears, truly enlightening!"

"Especially when it sounds like that, combined with some secret methods and lectures to help me comprehend it, I feel like I can clearly see the direction ahead. But now I always feel like the direction is blurry, and I don't even know how to comprehend it faster."

As they were talking.

He has returned to the manor.

Babata, perched on Luo Feng's shoulder, said, "So, the guidance your master gave you was even more effective than the public lectures and your teacher Zhen Yan's teachings? Why don't you send him an email and listen to it again?"

Luo Feng chuckled, "I received preferential treatment from the Master in Chaos City, which allowed me to reach the sixth level within 30 years. Now that I'm leaving, how could I possibly have the nerve to ask for guidance again!"

Babata said seriously, "Luo Feng, you're wrong to think like that, completely wrong. Cultivation is about following the path that suits you best. You can't miss the fastest way to improve just because you're embarrassed. Yes, you think doing so might delay Shen Ping, but he said that discussing things with you, reviewing what he's learned, and improving himself quickly is also a great help!"

"Besides, we've already left Chaos City. Thinking like this is just a waste of your energy. No matter what, you should at least send an email to ask."

Upon hearing this...

Luo Feng fell into deep thought.

He knew that what Babata said made a lot of sense. To put it bluntly, he was just too proud to admit it. But in the universe, cultivation resources were more important than anything else. It would be unwise to give up such a chance for rapid improvement just to save face.

Babata continued, "Luo Feng, back then when I followed my master to explore the universe, I would do anything to seize any opportunity or resource. Especially when I became an apprentice, I once knelt on the planet where an immortal lived for thousands of years."

"Face, dignity, and so on are nothing. I know you want to say that dignity is important, but it's meaningless to talk about dignity before you become strong."

"Besides, it's not a matter of dignity for you to ask Shen Ping for guidance."

Luo Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll send an email."

Original area.

Inside the manor.

Compared to Luo Feng and other geniuses who were diligently cultivating and comprehending, Shen Ping seemed much more leisurely and carefree. He rarely attended public lectures and spent most of his time in the manor's entertainment area or on Black Dragon Mountain Island.

This kind of learning and living environment is completely unlike what members of the Primal Secret Realm should be doing.

Even the leader of the Immortal Guards couldn't help but remind him that although he currently had the advantage, he couldn't let his guard down, or they would catch up.

Even the Sparrow Spirit said so.

It was obvious that Shen Ping's leisurely lifestyle was something the others couldn't stand.

Email received.

Shen Ping's eyes lit up. He was worried about how to continue discussing the first three diagrams of the Chaos Stele with Luo Feng, just like in Chaos City. But since the other party brought it up on his own initiative, things became much easier.

"If I can continue to receive rewards related to family prestige, my understanding of the essence of space will continuously improve, allowing me to create more sword techniques and then organize them into a set of my own secret methods!"

His self-created secret techniques allow him to better unleash his strength. Although the secret techniques left by powerful cultivators are sufficient for him at this stage, he prefers to use his own swordsmanship when it comes to the fusion law of the Fire and Void Beast God.

The secret technique of beast god fusion bestowed by the Nine Swords Venerable is mainly for comprehension.

"Judging from the increasing rewards in other areas, if the family's prestige increases, the rewards should not only be limited to the comprehension of spatial essence..."

He pondered.

During his years of enlightenment in Chaos City, he received family prestige rewards more than once or twice. Judging from the results alone, these rewards were mainly related to his understanding of the laws. Family property, foundation, and reputation were all treasures, as were some cultivation resources.

Thinking of this.

Shen Ping replied to the email, arranging to meet with Luo Feng at the beginning of each month in the public area for discussion. After hesitating for a moment, he added a few more sentences to the email, saying that Uka and Rong Jun could also come over to discuss the fundamental laws of space.

Although they did not choose the same Chaos Tablet, the fundamental laws of space were the same, especially in essence; it was just that the different Chaos Tablets manifested themselves in different ways.

soon.

Luo Feng saw Shen Ping's email and breathed a sigh of relief. Since Shen Ping had invited Uka, Rong Jun, and the others, it meant that the discussion was not simply Shen Ping instructing him. This lessened his guilt considerably.

"See? I told you before, it would be beneficial for Shen Ping to discuss this with you..."

Babata said.

Luo Feng laughed, "It was indeed my oversight. There are still more than ten days until the beginning of the month, so I need to prepare properly. But before that, I need to meet with Uka and Rong Jun. I don't know if they'll be willing!"

"Of course I'd like to!"

Babata waved his fist, "Shen Ping's current understanding of the laws far surpasses yours. Although he can't compare to the King-level Immortal or the Universe King, you are all geniuses of the same generation, so you will definitely have some new insights when you discuss this."

"Luo Feng, I think that discussions and exchanges like this could be held every month. It may seem unnecessary, but judging from the effects in Chaos City, it is much better than you trying to comprehend it alone."

Luo Feng nodded, "This was brought up by the museum owner, and I will take care of it."

Actually, he doesn't really like this kind of lively atmosphere. If it weren't for Shen Ping, he probably wouldn't even attend the usual Taichu District gatherings, and would only chat with Wu Ka, Rong Jun, and the others occasionally.

This is normal.

Most geniuses spend so much time studying and practicing secret techniques that they have no time to cultivate relationships with others. In fact, relationships are useless to them; only strength matters.

Inside the Uka Manor.

Upon hearing the report.

Uka rubbed his ears, wondering if he'd misheard, then quickly slipped away. Seeing it really was Luo Feng, he laughed and punched Luo Feng on the shoulder, "You rascal, you actually came all this way to my place!"

"You didn't attend any of the gatherings in the Primordial District, and that's fine, but you even refused to meet with our small group. What, do you think that just because you've passed the sixth level of the Heavenly Bridge, you look down on me, a mere third-level prince of Manka Star?"

Luo Feng was helpless. Uka was very direct, and there was no need for euphemisms among geniuses. Of course, he also knew that Uka was just joking.

So he teased, "Yeah, I look down on you, so you'd better work hard, or I'll leave you even further behind!"

Uka was speechless. "You're serious? Just wait, I'll surpass you very soon!"

The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Enter the manor.

Uka asked, "What's the matter that made you, Luo Feng, come all the way here?"

Luo Feng grinned and said, "What? Can't I come if there's nothing wrong? Hurry up and bring out your good wine."

Uka immediately served the wine.

Seeing Luo Feng savor a glass of wine, he couldn't help but urge him, "Hurry up and tell me, you must have something on your mind, you wouldn't be here to freeload."

"Yes, something has happened."

"It's still a good thing."

Luo Feng briefly explained Shen Ping's email.

Uka blinked. "Shen Ping really agrees to let me join the discussion?"

In fact, he, Rong Jun, Qian Shui, Ai Chen and other members of the Primordial Beginning District had long suspected that Luo Feng's rapid progress was related to his time with Shen Ping. However, no one seriously considered it. Regardless of whether it was related or not, being able to discuss and study the laws with a peerless genius like Shen Ping was undoubtedly a good thing.

As the saying goes, "Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me." This understanding was held by ancient people on Earth, and it is even more so in the universe.

It's just that geniuses like Wuka and Rong Jun are extremely rare, with only one or two born in a single universe. That's why they rarely have the opportunity to exchange ideas at the same level. Once they arrive in Chaos City, with the Chaos Stele to study and teachers to guide them, they have even less need for such things.

But now that Shen Ping has brought it up himself, the situation is different.

Perhaps if it were Luo Feng, or Wu Ka, or Rong Jun who proposed it, it might not have been possible to accomplish it. But who is Shen Ping? He's an unparalleled genius who has conquered the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a cosmic-level feat!

"Should we go or not?"

"Yes, of course I'll go!"

Uka's face lit up with joy, and he poured Luo Feng a drink. "Come on, keep drinking. I'll send Rong Jun an email now and ask him to come over, so we don't have to go looking for him."

Luo Feng laughed, "Uka, you usually wouldn't let me drink this wine, but you're really generous today!"

"When something joyous happens, of course you have to be generous."

A short while later.

Rong Jun then arrived.

Upon hearing this, he agreed without hesitation, "Luo Feng, tell me and Uka what this discussion about the laws of communication is all about. You know, compared to Shen Ping, we are far behind. If we're really talking about understanding the laws, how could our limited knowledge possibly be of any help to Shen Ping!"

"If it's just Shen Ping giving us guidance, then there's no need."

Rong Jun shook his head as he spoke, "It's fine once or twice, but if it goes on for too long, I'll feel guilty."

Uka quickly added, "Yes, yes, please tell us quickly."

As a genius.

Everyone is inherently proud. Although they admire the prodigy Shen Ping, they won't accept advice from him for no reason.

Luo Feng understood, as he himself felt the same way, so he explained the specifics.

Once we learned that they could also offer their own insights, and that it was simply a matter of everyone discussing and exchanging ideas, there were no further disagreements.

……

The Ninth Dimension.

A luxurious manor on the continent of Wuchen.

Shen Ping was casually browsing the secret techniques in the Time-Space Notes in the entertainment room when he received a notification from the AI ​​assistant. He opened his email: "Agreed? Not bad, Luo Feng is very efficient... There are still ten days left. Let's see if my previous guess was correct!"

The evaluation level of family prestige is still in the first stage.

If one can truly gain prestige through Uka and Rong Jun, it means that one can influence other geniuses and continuously enhance the family's prestige.

So, for the next ten days or so...

While Luo Feng, Wu Ka, and Rong Jun were making preparations, Shen Ping was also making preparations. He was mainly considering whether or not to continue using the analysis and understanding of the essence of space to discuss it, since only he and Luo Feng had comprehended the essence of space at present.

The two of them can have a good discussion and can complement each other, but Ukarongjun is not.

"Right, we can discuss it using imagery and scenery, but we still need to provide an analysis of the essence of space, otherwise it might not be very effective!"

To comprehend the essence of space is extremely difficult.

Among all the geniuses in the entire Genius Battle, only Luo Feng has the temperament, perseverance, and comprehension to be suitable. Others such as Wu Ka, Rong Jun, and Long Yun have all tried, but unfortunately, they have all failed. However, Shen Ping's spatial essence analysis is a direct reward from the family. As long as he speaks it out, whether or not they can understand it depends on Wu Ka, Rong Jun, and the others themselves.
