Swallowing the starry sky, my clones can evolve infinitely.

Chapter 11 Luo Feng's surname is not Tang

To be honest, in Shen Mu's expectations, breaking through to the planetary level within a year and comprehending the artistic conception before becoming a planetary level would be quite good.

He just didn't expect that the Azure Dragon clone's memories of the past few decades would give him such a big surprise.

"It's only early June now, and there's still some time before August. It's just the right amount of time to reflect for two months and fully integrate my understanding of the sea into my marksmanship and movement techniques."

According to the training camp's rules, August of each year is a month dedicated to a life-or-death adventure on the Australian continent.

With the help of the ten-thousand-year-old willow wood heart, two months is enough time for Shen Mu to raise his physical fitness and mental power to the limit of the God of War level.

"Maybe we can try challenging a King-level monster then!"

The few king-level monsters on the Australian continent are all planetary-level Tier 1. After all, this is a place for training camp students to hone their skills, and there are no powerful monsters comparable to his Azure Dragon clone.

Inside the sealed room, Shen Mu opened the combination lock box containing the ten-thousand-year-old willow heart. The ten-thousand-year-old willow heart was a fist-sized crystal, with a turquoise-gold liquid flowing inside.

"This ancient willow heartwood is probably the one Luo Feng obtained on Fog Island."

According to the description of its effects in the instructions, the heartwood of the ancient willow can improve the physical fitness of a war god-level expert by 3 to 5 times.

Shen Mu's current physical attributes are approximately 7.3 kilograms, which is at the initial level of the God of War. If he can increase his physical attributes by four times, he can easily reach the level of the advanced God of War.

call out!

Shen Mu skillfully manipulated the throwing knife to cut open the crystal shell, and then consumed the azure-gold essence liquid.

The rich life substance rapidly spread throughout his body, merging into countless cells of Shen Mu's entire body at an astonishing speed.

This transformation lasted for an entire night.

The next morning, Shen Mu stood in front of the force measuring instrument, and his current strength data appeared on the screen.

34.9 kilograms, qualified for advanced War God level!

"As expected, it increased by more than four times, almost five times."

Shen Mu could also sense that his cells were in a state of extreme saturation and overeating, to the point that he couldn't even absorb cosmic energy through cultivation techniques.

That was the essence of the plant spirits dormant within his body. For the next two months, Shen Mu's main task was to thoroughly digest the medicinal effects of the plant spirits.

……

The fifth month of the lunar calendar is the season for cicadas to sing.

As temperatures gradually rise in Hongning Base City, located in the Northern Hemisphere, the monsters in the wilderness become increasingly restless.

Therefore, many training camp participants were injured in June, but Shen Mu was not among them.

With his advanced War God-level physical attributes and War God-level mental power, Shen Mu is now absolutely invincible against monsters below the King level. Even if he encounters a true King-level monster, he can easily escape.

In the evening, in the lounge where the Huaxia faction students often gathered at the training camp.

A dozen or so people gathered in small groups, chatting or exchanging sparring techniques in the training hall, creating a relaxed atmosphere.

Meanwhile, Shen Mu was testing his physical fitness before the strength test.

boom!

With a dull thud, Shen Mu's current strength data appeared on the punching bag.

"Hey Junior Brother Shen Mu, you're already an invincible war god, why are you still working so hard? We're all embarrassed to slack off."

Zhao Ruo lay on the sofa in a relaxed, salted fish-like posture, looking at the punching power data of 46.3 kilograms on the screen with an envious expression.

In terms of strength, Zhao Ruo is barely considered to be in the middle among the trainees in the training camp. His combat skills and movement techniques are only at the second level of mastery, and his power exertion skills are more than twice as strong. This year, he has just stabilized in the top 100 of the Black Dragon Ranking.

When Shen Mu first started practicing martial arts, he sparred with Zhao Ruo the most because of his strength, and they became quite familiar with each other.

Shen Mu shook his head slightly: "It's still far from enough. Today's strength increase hasn't reached 4000 kilograms. After all, I've consumed the spirit of herbs and trees, and my realm is that of a high-level war god, so it can't be considered risking my life."

This data seems exaggerated, with a daily increase in strength equivalent to that of a mid-level warrior at the peak, but in reality, it's not that much.

An ordinary warrior-level martial artist can only gain a few dozen kilograms a day, and that's only if their physical potential hasn't been fully developed and they haven't encountered any growth bottlenecks.

However, a warrior at the general level can gain hundreds of kilograms of energy in a single day, because the higher their physical fitness, the more cosmic energy their cells can absorb each day.

Once you reach the God of War level, the amount of cosmic energy you absorb each day becomes incredibly high. As long as your body's potential hasn't reached its limit, it's normal to gain several hundred kilograms of strength per day.

The so-called physical potential is the manifestation of cell activity. The upper limit of most martial artists in their lifetime is only the advanced warrior level. With the addition of external medicines, they may become a warrior general level martial artist.

The above are just the improvement data under normal circumstances. Shen Mu has the support of the ancient civilization's gravity chamber and the medicinal power of the spirits of plants.

The ancient civilization gravity chamber training for 20 minutes is equivalent to a normal martial artist's full-force training for a day.

Shen Mu can use the ancient civilization gravity chamber for a full 90 hours a month. The improvement he gains in one month is comparable to the effect of half a year of regular training, not even counting the blessing from the spirit of plants and trees.

"Haha, Xiao Ruo, you still want to compare with Shen Mu? You gained 10 kilograms in a month. In terms of talent, perhaps only Luo Feng can compare with Shen Mu."

The one who spoke was Shi Jiang from Jiangnan Pavilion. He was lean and muscular, with muscles that looked like they were made of steel, and he exuded a sharp aura.

Shi Jiang and Chu Qiang both joined the training camp in 53, and this year is their last year in the training camp.

"Speaking of which, hasn't Luo Feng emerged from the ancient civilization ruins yet...?"

Zhao Ruo looked somewhat gloomy. Although Luo Feng had only stayed in the training camp for half a year, their relationship was still quite good.

"No, there are still three months left... it will be a year."

Hearing them talk about Luo Feng, Shen Mu picked up a towel, wiped his sweat, and said, "The curator talked to me a while ago, asking if I would be willing to enter the No. 9 ancient civilization ruins to see if I could find any clues about Senior Brother Luo Feng."

After Shen Mu consumed the Ten-Thousand-Year Willow Heart and became an invincible war god-level mental master, Hong told him about the No. 9 ancient civilization ruins.

If Shen Mu is willing to explore the No. 9 ancient civilization ruins, he will not only be given a Black God Set, but also an experience manual for breaking through the domain realm.

"What?"

As soon as Shen Mu said this, all the dozen or so students from the Chinese faction present turned their attention to him.

Chu Qiang walked directly to Shen Mu and said, "Junior Brother Shen Mu, don't be impulsive. Ancient civilization ruins are full of unknowns, and no one can predict what accidents might happen inside."

Shen Mu nodded slightly and said, "Yes, that's what I think too. After all, ancient civilization ruins are too dangerous. It's one thing to die on the battlefield, but it would be too frustrating to die in ancient civilization ruins."

To be honest, Shen Mu had actually planned to explore the No. 9 ancient civilization site.

He'll then act as if he's willing to risk his own safety to rescue Senior Brother Luo Feng. It's not for the reward Hong offers; he simply wants to build goodwill so he can easily curry favor with Hong.

It's important to know that Luo Feng's surname isn't Tang; if you build a good relationship with him, he'll genuinely help you. Luo Feng's childhood friend, Wei Wen, was only average in terms of talent among Earthlings, but after Luo Feng grew up, he used resources to force him into becoming an immortal.

This is a sure-fire investment.

Furthermore, as a transmigrator, Shen Mu also knew the details of the No. 9 ancient civilization ruins. As long as a mentalist doesn't trigger the death trial, they won't face any danger.

Even if Shen Mu is triggered, there's nothing to fear. Even if he can't complete the assessment within three years, Luo Feng will still be able to control the No. 9 ancient civilization ruins through Babata.

At that time, I will not be in danger, and I will gain Luo Feng's favor and have the hope of joining Meteorite Star like Hong and Thor.

Shen Mu's cheat ability is just a king-level Azure Dragon clone, which is nothing in the universe and is not as good as the advantage of a transmigrator's foresight. Therefore, it is very necessary for him to join Meteorite Star.

Even if Shen Mu is confident in himself, he only sets his sights on Hong and Lei Shen, and he would be satisfied if he could reach the same level as Hong and Lei Shen in the future.

As for being comparable to Luo Feng, it basically has nothing to do with talent; it all depends on whether one can match Luo Feng's cheat codes.

It's important to understand that Luo Feng's path to success was paved with a series of cheat codes: immortal inheritance, possession, being accepted as a disciple by a god-king, the supreme secret technique Lieyuan Technique, and so on. If he had lacked even one of these cheat codes, he wouldn't have become Lord Luo.

Of course, the above plan to gain favor was just Shen Mu's idea before.

Now, thanks to his mother Chen Wen, Shen Mu has a new and more reliable plan to win her favor.

"Senior brothers and sisters, you can continue. I'll go back and rest first," Shen Mu said with a smile to the others.

"OK!"

"Take care, Junior Brother Shen."

Many of the Huaxia students greeted Shen Mu warmly.

……

After returning to his attic, Shen Mu poured himself a glass of water and then picked up his phone to request a video call.

"Beep...beep!"

A few seconds later, the video call was connected, and a woman in a white lab coat appeared on the screen, with the background resembling a laboratory of a research institute.

The woman wore black-rimmed glasses, but even so, they could not conceal her excellent appearance, which added to her intellectual and scholarly air.

"Amu, you're done training!" Tang Yongqing looked at Shen Mu with a smile and a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Shen Mu nodded slightly, then asked, "Sister Yongqing, has Wang Xing'an stopped harassing you?"

Tang Yongqing nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on her face: "No, after Aunt Chen intervened, he immediately apologized and never came to the research institute again."

Shen Mu looked at Tang Yongqing and said softly, "Sister Yongqing, I plan to graduate after August this year."

Tang Yongqing, Luo Feng's cousin, is the daughter of his mother Chen Wen, who was his high school classmate. She is now his blind date and they have just started dating.

Tang Yongqing was slightly taken aback: "I heard Aunt Chen mention that the elite training camp is a five-year program, isn't it?"

"Well, but my current strength is too high, the training camp doesn't want me anymore. Would you like to take me in, Sister Yongqing?"

"loquacious!"

"..."

Half an hour later, Shen Mu hung up the phone and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the sunset in the distance.

Since his transmigration, he has always been cautious, both in his past and present lives. The more he knows, the more insignificant he feels, and the more insecure he becomes.

"All the scheming and plotting is just for the sake of living a better life."

Shen Mu had no choice but to live in such a world, where even his words and actions could not escape the gaze of others.
