Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Gu Ting Universe Kingdom.

Blue Flame Star.

Black Moon City.

A vast manor castle spanning tens of thousands of kilometers.

Inside the training ground.

A simulated starry sky environment.

Shen Ping, wielding his battle sword, fought against the Golden Horned Beast, the Zerg Mother Nest Warriors, and some special races' ninth-tier Domain Lords. As he continuously absorbed and digested the Venerable-level sword technique manuals, his swordsmanship became increasingly perfect and powerful.

Even the most ordinary slashing motion contains extremely powerful fusion laws.

And over the years.

He had been trying to create a fourth style of swordsmanship, but without much success.

moment.

Received at thirty.

The leader of the Immortal Guards, Sparrow Spirit, walked over and said with a smile, "Your Highness's swordsmanship has become increasingly refined, even I am ashamed of my own inferiority."

Shen Ping smiled. He knew that Que Ling was praising him, but what she said was actually somewhat true. As his understanding of the fundamental laws of the universe continued to improve, regardless of the cultivation of genetic energy, in terms of combat power based solely on the level of understanding of the laws, he was only slightly inferior to Que Ling. If the power of fusing with the laws were taken into account, he had already surpassed Que Ling.

After all, once one has fully digested and comprehended the Fire-Void Fusion Law and the Secret Manual of Sword Techniques, that would be invincible combat power below the Venerable level.

Of course, this is just an understanding of the laws.

The true combat power still depends on the combined strength of genetic energy.

Only the ninth rank of Domain Lord.

Let alone the Sparrow Spirit, he wouldn't be a match for even an ordinary immortal god.

At this time.

An email has been sent.

Shen Ping raised an eyebrow. "It seems Luo Feng is still choosing to break through to the Domain Lord level ahead of schedule, just like in the original story, and be sent to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom!"

Actually, this is a good thing.

The things he said to Luo Feng a few days ago were well-intentioned, because there was no need to explore the Purgatory Abyss. What difference would it make if he got a million points, or even some mixed units worth millions or tens of millions?

The entire fortune of a Marquis-level Immortal God is in the tens of millions. Can that compare to the Locke Divine Water that Luo Feng obtained from Pan Xi?

No!

not to mention.

Now, with his exchange and discussion sessions, Luo Feng's progress in the fundamental laws is very fast. In the more than ten years since he became a member of the Primordial Secret Realm, he has been able to reliably pass through the eighth level of the Bridge to Heaven, so there is no need for him to stay at the cosmic level.

Just like him.

Staying at the cosmic level is mainly for monetization and accumulating experience.

Now, at the Domain Lord level, once they pass through the Domain Lord level Tongtian Mountain, they will begin to break through to the World Lord level, unlike Luo Feng who had to go to Chaos City to cultivate for a period of time.

After all, the realm lord is the stage where one can comprehend the fundamental laws the fastest.

With Shen Ping's ever-accumulating talent in the laws, once he breaks through to the realm master level, his rate of progress will be unparalleled.

"With Luo Feng keeping an eye on things on Earth, there's no need to worry anymore. We can focus on developing the Gu Ting Universe Kingdom!"

"Sparrow Spirit, let's go explore other star systems!"

Next.

Shen Ping, along with his wives, began traveling through various directly subordinate star regions of the Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom. While traveling, he also cultivated and meditated, leading a very pleasant life.

"This planet is really beautiful."

"The beach is like a string of pearls; it would be incredibly relaxing to vacation here!"

"Your Highness, this planet is one of the top ten tourist destinations in the Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom. Every year, many powerful individuals come here to relax and unwind."

Administrative Star.

Tourism Star.

War Star.

There are also various planets for raising pets, plants, and so on.

Shen Ping's eyes were opened to a whole new world.

Some planets have very few people, and are managed entirely by intelligent robots, just like the movies he had seen in his previous life. They are specifically used to raise star beasts. Similarly, there are planets specifically used to raise slaves.

Even the prison planet.

He went to all of them.

Sparrow Spirit remained highly vigilant throughout, fearing an assassination attempt by a foreign race. However, after more than twenty years of wandering, there had been no such assassination attempts.

……

Gu Ting Universe Kingdom.

In a remote region, nestled within a majestic mountain range.

An immortal alien race lurking within the demon race.

"Hmph, Shen Ping really doesn't take us seriously. If we weren't so confident, we would have wiped him out long ago!"

"The intelligence indicates that the opponent's fundamental laws of the universe are around the fourteenth level, or even higher. Even if we consider the Virtual Universe Company's Heavenly Bridge to be the fifteenth level, eliminating it would require the deployment of an immortal god!"

"The infiltration of every immortal deity is of utmost importance; we must find the perfect opportunity!"

Whether it was the demon race or the insect race lurking, they had been keeping an eye on Shen Ping's whereabouts, but they had enough patience to wait.

"The chances of a successful assassination are not high if we act now. That Sparrow Spirit will definitely be on high alert. Let's wait until the Virtual Universe Company's series of points missions arrive. At that time, the leader of the Immortal Guards around him will not be able to be on high alert all the time."

The alien infiltrators are very familiar with the human race's methods of cultivating geniuses at various stages. For example, the chain of point-based missions requires the personal intervention of domain lord-level members, which is precisely their opportunity.

……

Inside the spaceship.

A luxurious lobby.

Shen Ping and the guards, including Que Ling, were drinking together.

Although he spent most of the past twenty years sightseeing, this was only on the surface. He was mainly digesting and absorbing the Venerable-level sword technique manual of the Law Pattern. Since obtaining the cheat, he has never taken as long to absorb and digest various secret techniques or the essence of the Law of Space as he has this time.

And even now.

He had only digested about three-fifths of the information; the further he went, the more difficult it became to digest and absorb the massive amount of information, far exceeding his previous expectations.

According to estimates.

It will take at least another fifty years to fully digest and absorb it.

This is still a relatively optimistic situation.

However, regarding this...

Shen Ping wasn't too surprised. After all, once he digested and absorbed the complete sword technique manual, his combat power would skyrocket. This Venerable-level sword technique manual not only contained the most fundamental law patterns but also many different sword techniques.

If it were a Venerable One to comprehend this, it might take tens of millions of years and still not be able to achieve it.

Even the ruler of the universe would need to spend countless years.

In the original story, Luo Feng created his own sword technique after observing the three mountains of knives, but he still failed to comprehend the Law Patterns. Only after exhausting the limits of the Golden Void and fusing with the Laws did he finally use the Law Patterns to create the secret technique of the strongest being in the universe.

This shows how high the level of the Law Patterns is.

simply put.

The Law Runes contain the ultimate Laws. Just like the Venerable-level sword technique manual that was awarded, it only contains the fundamental Laws of Fire and Void. If it were a Law Rune that truly encompasses everything, Shen Ping would need more than a thousand years just to absorb and digest it.

But even so.

If word got out, it would make countless powerful people envious.

A thousand years is but a fleeting moment for a Universe Venerable or Universe Lord. At the Universe Lord level, being able to create the strongest secret technique within a few epochs is considered quite remarkable.

Therefore.

Shen Ping didn't think anything of it. On the contrary, the longer it took to digest and absorb, the more powerful this sword technique manual was.

However, even though three-fifths of it was digested and absorbed.

His understanding of swordsmanship far surpasses that of Que Ling; when he practices swordsmanship, he can make Que Ling unable to understand.

"Once I perfect my three self-created sword techniques, I'll be able to challenge the Lord-level Tongtian Mountain!"

The sword techniques he had created earlier were, after all, just an understanding of the essence of space. In Shen Ping’s view, the sword techniques were just an interpretation of his understanding, without mixing in too many sword moves and intricacies. They were purely the profound application of the essence of space and the laws of fusion.

Although its power is indeed not low.

But if it's truly exquisite, then it can't be called that.

If we have to use the level of secret techniques to evaluate it, it probably doesn't even qualify as the peak level.

Unranked, ordinary, peak, ultimate, strongest.

Being able to create a top-tier secret technique is quite an achievement.

……

The spaceship had just finished its journey and arrived at a tourist planet.

Shen Ping received the email.

"Oh? The series of point-based quests has arrived so quickly?"

Looking at the email content.

He was somewhat surprised. Generally speaking, the domain lord level usually lasts for tens of thousands of years. Although the domain lord stage is not a cosmic level for refining the foundation, nor is it like the realm lord stage for racing against time to comprehend the origin laws, this stage is a stage for honing oneself and improving combat power in all aspects.

That's why the Virtual Universe Company releases its members to the outside world, allowing them to truly hone their skills and prepare for the Realm Lords to venture alone into the outer battlefields.

The strong are all those who have fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

One can never become a strong person by simply cultivating and comprehending.

Laws and treasures can also be obtained through comprehension, bestowal, or by chance.

But what about the secret method?

The only way is to constantly fight and learn from various opponents.

And secret techniques are often the most important.

Without a powerful, self-created secret technique, even if one becomes the ruler of the universe, one will only be the weakest of the weak.

His gaze continued to scan the emails.

The reward of 300,000 points for this mission is quite good. You should know that the entire wealth of an immortal god is only about 100,000 Chaos Units. A reward of 300,000 points is equivalent to him going on a world adventure of the extreme level.

The background and cause of the mission are quite simple: an immortal god family at the Marquis level in the Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom, which was infiltrated and controlled by alien races. This family mainly deals in star beasts and pet beasts and are rare beast tamers. After being infiltrated and enslaved by the demon race, they caused considerable losses to the human race.

The main objective of this mission is to eliminate Yan Yu, an immortal god of the Marquis level, and his family, which controls over 2 million members.

Seeing this.

Shen Ping wasn't surprised. Based on what he learned from Que Ling and his teacher, most of the first missions for members of the Domain Lord level were usually to deal with targets that were being infiltrated and controlled by alien races. These targets had long been monitored by the virtual universe system, which was a good opportunity to hone the members' skills.

Over the years.

The training process for virtual universe companies has long been standardized, and there is unlikely to be any major changes.

Luo Feng's first mission was also to kill an immortal god who was being controlled by an alien race, except that it was an insectoid one.

This time, the target, being a beast tamer, fought against the demon race in the outer battlefield in order to obtain more powerful demon beasts. However, he was enslaved instead, went into hiding, and gradually expanded his influence by leveraging the connections and business networks of beast tamers, leaking a lot of information to the alien race.

As for the task.

That is to kill this immortal god, as well as the other two immortal gods in his family, and the remaining 2 million subordinates under his control.

Upon seeing the mission, Que Ling shook her head and said, "This mission is quite difficult. Beast tamers, like alchemists and illusionists, are extremely troublesome. They rely on controlling powerful demonic beasts or star beasts. This Yan Yu controls more than seven immortal gods among his demonic beasts, and the other two are also beast tamers. Their combined power is formidable!"

"Even I can only manage to keep Yan Yu occupied at most. No wonder His Highness was given 30 points for the first mission."

Shen Ping looked at the mission details and said, "It is somewhat difficult, but I don't need to lift a finger to kill the immortal gods. I only need to kill a few of the realm lords."

Que Ling laughed, "Indeed, two of these realm lords are disciples trained by Yan Yu and are also beast tamers. Although they are a bit troublesome, they can't cause any trouble in front of His Highness. So the main difficulty of the task is to kill the Marquis-level Immortal God and his 2 million subordinates."

Shen Ping nodded and said casually, "As for mission points, it's best to get them, but it's not a big deal if you don't."

For him, doing a series of missions was mainly to practice his skills, since he had nothing else to do anyway.

Those few task points.

He looked down on it completely.

The opinions of the Virtual Universe company's executives have no effect on him.

Because no matter how good the evaluation is, it can't compare to passing through the Tongtian Mountain, which is at the Domain Lord level or even the World Lord level.

Many powerful figures in the human race are eccentric, and some are even bloodthirsty, yet they still hold high positions in the human race. Take Emperor Yan, for example; if he hadn't been so selfish, he would have been the ruler of the human race's universe.

Que Ling said earnestly, "It's good that Your Highness understands. The Venerable One also said that you shouldn't worry too much about these mission points. If you don't have enough points, the Venerable One will help you."

The Nine Swords Venerable can easily amass millions or even hundreds of millions of points with just a few random things, without even blinking an eye.

"Let's go to the Snow Ring Starfield."

"That's the stronghold of the Yan Yu family."

Since his wives were still on the spaceship, he left An Xueyi and the other women on this planet before heading to the Snow Ring Star Region.

He and his guards, including Sparrow Spirit, traveled through space aboard the Mechanical Race's immortal spaceship.

On their way to the Snow Ring Starfield.

His consciousness connected to the virtual universe.

Arrived on the Ancient Thunder Continent.

They met the three powerful figures: Marquis Qianshan, Marquis Jixue, and Marquis Biling.

There are quite a few resources available for this mission. First, there is the Fifth Legion, which he can mobilize at will to kill the 2 million subordinates. The entire Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom has many legions, which are jointly controlled by the Virtual Universe Company and the Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom.

The Fifth Legion is very strong.

The legion commanders are all of the highest-ranking immortal military lord level, and they also have world lords who have been recognized by the fundamental laws and a large number of universe-level members under their command.

The remaining team is the special operations team of the Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom. This team is not a vassal group, but an operations team under the command of the Ancient Ting Universe Kingdom's ruler. It consists of two King-level Immortals and six Marquis-level Immortal Gods.

The lineup is very strong.

In particular, one of the kings, although he was a king of the Cosmic Kingdom, was a real king-level power, and followed the ruler of the Cosmic Kingdom to expand the territory.

Shen Ping had met this prince at the last banquet. (End of Chapter)
