Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Chapter 25 Breakthrough to Planetary Level

The night was cool and still.

The bed, however, was as hot as spring.

After a series of physical encounters, Li Yuewei gradually became overwhelmed and gasped, "Husband, you're too strong. I really can't take it anymore. I can't continue."

Although Shen Ping was somewhat disappointed, he didn't say much. His wife's physical condition was ultimately too weak, and even if he controlled his strength, she couldn't endure it for too long.

Turn on the bedside lamp.

He got up and carefully washed his wife.

Li Yuewei said apologetically, "I'm sorry, honey, I didn't let you have your fill today."

The two didn't actually have sex very often. Sometimes, when Shen Ping went to the wilderness, they wouldn't see each other for ten days or half a month, and could only relieve their boredom by talking on the phone.

Shen Ping lowered his head and kissed Li Yuewei's forehead, then put his arm around her shoulders and said gently, "It's okay, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself."

Li Yuewei hummed in agreement, remained silent for a moment, then looked up and said, "Honey, I know you're very good to me and considerate of my feelings, but... but I really can't handle it alone. Maybe we should find someone else."

"Xiaoyin is a pretty good girl. I'll ask her opinion after she graduates."

Shen Ping frowned. "Xiao Yin is your cousin..."

Li Yuewei shook her head and interrupted, saying, "As long as she's willing, other aspects are not a problem."

See here.

Shen Ping stopped resisting and simply said, "Let nature take its course. Don't make Xiaoyin feel wronged."

He didn't have much of a problem with it.

Moreover, today's family reward evaluation made him realize that there are still many areas to explore in terms of population, family business, and family reputation. If he continues to focus on having more offspring, he will inevitably have to keep mistresses outside, which is an insurmountable hurdle.

The following days.

Shen Ping did not cultivate diligently as usual. Apart from going to work, he stayed at home to recuperate and prepare to adjust his condition to its peak before taking the Muya Crystal.

Actually, breaking through to the Planetary level on his own would be the best option, but his martial arts talent is average. Although his physical attributes can reach the peak of the War God level in two or three months, his mental state is relatively poor, so it may take him quite a while to break through.

However, Mu Yajing was able to help apprentices at the eighth and ninth levels of martial arts break through to the planetary level within a month. Although this was a waste of resources, he didn't care about that.

After all, breaking through to the planetary level is the most important thing.

Once someone becomes a powerful figure at the level of a councilor, even if their secrets are exposed, no one will dare to covet them.

Ten days later.

Feeling that his mental state had reached its peak, Shen Ping went to the training hall, took out the reward, the Wood Crystal, and looked at the white crystal in his hand that emitted the aroma of rice. He took a deep breath, held it in his palm, and then began to cultivate the Ninefold Chaos Origin Guiding Technique.

Instantly, the enormous energy within the wooden crystal was frantically absorbed by the skin's acupoints, and the incredibly pure energy surged into the body, which the cells greedily absorbed.

Cells that normally take half an hour to reach saturation now reach full saturation in just over ten minutes, while consuming only a small amount of Wood Crystal energy.

"As expected of Kiyoka!"

"At this rate of improvement, by the end of August, my physical attributes will have reached the peak of the War God realm. At that time, with the pure energy of the Wood Crystal, I can break through to the Planetary level by stimulating my spirit!"

The mere scent of Muya Crystal can invigorate the spirit, and absorbing its energy can keep the mind in a highly active state.

……

Mid-August.

Shen Ping, who was focused on his cultivation, received a call from his team leader, Qin Shan.

Arriving at the familiar spot of HR Alliance Mall.

As soon as I entered, I saw two unfamiliar faces.

"Old Shen."

"Let me introduce you. These are our new members, Li Yichen and Xue Jin. They are both promising talents recruited by the Extreme Martial Arts Academy this year. They have great potential and are very likely to become intermediate or even advanced warriors in the future."

Qin Shan said with a smile.

The two new members hurriedly greeted Shen Ping. They learned from Qin Shan that this former member, who had left the company, was now the CEO of Pingwei Materials Company. He had a large business and extensive connections, and building a good relationship with him would be helpful to them.

"The Gale Squad is good. You won't suffer if you follow the captain."

Shen Ping said something and then told Mu Yang to serve wine.

They drank until evening.

The group then separated.

Before leaving, Mu Yang asked Shen Ping if he had time in the next month or two, as he wanted to practice swordsmanship with him again.

"Let's talk about it in September. I'll call you when I have time."

"OK."

August to October are the two most dangerous months in the wilderness area, when beast tides are likely to break out. So, under normal circumstances, the captain and his team would choose to rest in the base city.

Back at the villa.

He once again entered a state of absorbing the Muya Crystal for cultivation.

His wife knew that Shen Ping was very important these days, so she tried not to make any noise after get off work so as not to disturb him. His mother-in-law and father-in-law would also take the two children to the neighborhood or to the hot pot restaurant during the day.

They continued practicing like this until the end of August.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as he sat down to absorb the Wood Crystal, the cells in his body seemed to boil, and his body began to heat up. Shen Ping's face lit up with joy. He knew that this was a sign that he was about to break through. So he suppressed his distracting thoughts and focused on absorbing the energy according to the movements of the Ninefold Chaos Origin.

boom.

As pure energy surged in, like a torrent, the genetic energy hidden deep within the cells began to gather like water droplets. In just a few minutes, he felt a surge of heat from the convergence of a large amount of genetic energy in his lower abdomen.

These heat flows are getting bigger and bigger.

When a certain level is reached, the heat flow begins to rotate, absorbing and gathering the original energy of other genes again, and surging towards the dantian area in the abdomen.

Splash!

Shen Ping seemed to hear the sound of hot currents colliding in his ears. At this moment, his spirit reached its peak, even merging with his body. Boom! The dantian in his lower abdomen, which had not existed before, suddenly opened. The hot current formed by the swirling and colliding genetic energy rushed in wildly, then continued to swirl and began to expand and contract.

With each expansion and contraction, the volume of the heat flow gathered by the gene energy would shrink. After continuous collisions and contractions, a miniature planet finally appeared in his dantian.

This miniature planet is flame-colored and looks like a burning fireball, but upon closer inspection, it can be seen that it is composed of a large number of bright yellow hexagonal crystals.

hum! !

Almost the instant the miniature planet appeared.

Shen Ping's consciousness trembled, and his mind unconsciously established a connection with the miniature planet. He could control the miniature planet with a thought.

"Planetary level!"

"This is planetary level!"

Feeling the strange fluctuations emanating from the flame-colored miniature planet, he was filled with excitement. These strange fluctuations were like a magnetic field, capable of counteracting Earth's gravity and making him float.

"Genetic energy, yes, we need to use genetic energy to modify our bodies right now!"

Suppress your excitement.

With a slight thought, a wisp of fiery yellow genetic energy flew out from his dantian and instantly merged into his body.

Almost instantly.

Shen Ping's entire skeleton, skin, muscles, meridians, and internal organs are undergoing a transformation at a speed visible to the naked eye.
