I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

Time flies, and month after month passes by.

The F-class spaceship forged from the Guiyan Stone Mother was also constantly heading towards the 'Virtual Universe Company's Universal Headquarters', which was located at the very center of the entire human territory of the universe. Luo Yuan naturally stayed in the spaceship every day, his consciousness entering the virtual universe like a sponge, desperately absorbing every drop of water.

In the virtual universe, in the primitive area of ​​Yuxiang Mountain, in the training ground of the luxurious manor No. 112.

The completely sealed training ground was empty.

Luo Yuan, barefoot and wearing shorts, held a fifth-tier Force shield and carried a fifth-tier Force sword resembling the Blood Shadow Battle Blade on his back.

"Simulated battle, set to 10,000 times Earth's gravity!" Luo Yuan shouted. "The opponent is Rong Jun, and his combat power is set to the strongest combat power of the early stage of a Realm Lord."

"Buzz~" Under the pressure of ten thousand times the Earth's gravity, Luo Yuan only felt a little uncomfortable at first, but soon he was able to stand steadily and move flexibly.

chi chi~~

Within the colossal training ground, spanning 50 kilometers in length and 30 kilometers in width, a figure faintly materialized, transforming into Rong Jun, a savage over three meters tall. Rong Jun carried a gigantic battle blade, the Earth-Splitting Blade, and was clad only in simple animal hides, barefoot as well. However, his eyes were lifeless, and he stood there motionless.

"Begin!" Luo Yuan shouted.

boom!

The simulated Rong Jun's eyes lit up instantly, and then, like a mountain, he charged directly towards Luo Yuan.

"Come on." Luo Yuan drew his battle sword and shield, transforming into hundreds of Luo Yuans, like hundreds of ghostly golden streaks of light, which crashed directly into him.

"clang!"

The two clashed head-on, and Luo Yuan, now at the fifth level of the universe, was actually on par with Rong Jun, who was at the early stage of the realm master, under the pressure of ten thousand times the gravity of Earth.

Luo Yuan unleashed his swordsmanship, exchanging tens of thousands of blows almost instantly. It was incredibly fast. Not only was Luo Yuan's movement incredibly fast and ghostly, but his swordsmanship was equally astounding. While his movements appeared elusive and his swordsmanship seemed weak, at times his power would erupt in a terrifying burst.

"Slash!" The savage Rong Jun's hair flew wildly, his eyes flashed like lightning, and he roared like thunder as his giant battle blade slashed down!

"cut!"

"cut!"

His roars were incredibly powerful.

Chapter 135 Supercontinent

In the battle of geniuses, Berlan ranks second in attack power, Galesi's illusion magic is the most bizarre, Luo Feng's 'Piercing Sky Style' is the most unstoppable, and the wild man Rong Jun's swordsmanship is the most domineering and powerful!

They fought hard for several minutes.

"puff!"

Blood gushed out, and the savage Rong Jun was cleaved away, falling to the ground like a broken sandbag.

"Boom~~~" The training ground changed in a flash. The Rong Jun that had been simulated earlier disappeared, and Luo Yuan stood steadily on the ground with a cold expression.

This specially equipped 'training ground' has the effect of a killing space, which can completely simulate any opponent you want, but the simulation space of the 'training ground' is limited.

"Your Highness's close combat was truly spectacular! A cosmic-level warrior can defeat a world lord-level warrior. You truly deserve to be the number one genius in the Genius Battle!"

The immortal deity "Mona," who had been watching Luo Yuan's battle scene on the big screen outside the training ground, walked in. A look of amazement and a smile appeared on her cold and beautiful face, and her eyes were full of wonder. After spending these days with Luo Yuan, she felt more and more that Luo Yuan was extraordinary. Compared with Luo Yuan in the genius battle, the geniuses in the genius battle were not even in the same league.

"Mona, keep it low-key!" Luo Yuan said with a smile, but the smug look on his face was obvious.

Mona smiled upon hearing this, feeling that Luo Yuan was a very interesting person. As an immortal god, she had the responsibility to guide Luo Yuan's cultivation, but since Luo Yuan came here, he had never come to her for guidance. Even so, the speed at which Luo Yuan's strength had increased shocked her, making her feel that she was not qualified to teach Luo Yuan. Perhaps only those high and mighty cosmic venerables were qualified.

……

Throughout the three-year journey, none of the 1000 recruited geniuses dared to slack off. This Genius Battle had a significant impact on them. Before, they were all hard-pressed to find an opponent, but the life-or-death battles in the Genius Battle had a profound effect. Many of them reflected on the years since the Genius Battle and made significant progress.

In addition, they can choose any secret technique they want. For Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Wu Ka, and other members of the Primordial Zone, 10,000 points are enough for them to buy many of the things they want.

For people at their level, there's no need to buy anything too expensive.

After three years of dedicated study, everyone has made significant progress.

……

In the main hall of the spaceship.

Luo Yuan and Luo Feng, each wearing a perfectly fitting suit of armor and boots, stood there. The lean, silver-haired old man beside them respectfully said, "Your Highnesses, we will soon arrive at the company's global headquarters."

"Mm." Luo Yuan nodded.

Three years!

These three years were the fastest period of progress. However, the deeper Luo Yuan went, the more he felt the unfathomable nature of the universe's origin and the profound complexity of the universe's operation. His secret technique could only be considered a secret technique used by those below the Venerable level or ordinary Venerables, yet he still found it profound, which shows how difficult this path was.

"I've made so much progress, I wonder how others are doing," Luo Yuan thought to himself. "It's quite a rare opportunity that I have a system cheat! But... the universe is vast, what kind of extraordinary encounters can't happen? Perhaps among these 1000 geniuses, there are even more miraculous encounters."

Never underestimate anyone, and never be arrogant.

The universe is vast and mysterious, and there are billions of species among them. Humans are just one of them. We should always maintain a sense of awe for the universe.

"Initiating space travel, entering the original universe."

“10……9……8……7……6……5……4……3……2……1！”

Luo Yuan felt the entire spaceship tremble slightly. After ten seconds, everything returned to normal, and he shouted, "Exterior simulation 100%!" Instantly, the entire hall became transparent and disappeared, and a dreamlike starry sky appeared around him. In the distance of the starry sky, there was a vast supercontinent floating in the starry sky.

We've arrived at the Virtual Universe Company's global headquarters.

"A huge, huge continent?" Luo Feng stood inside the spaceship, staring wide-eyed at the vast continent floating in the distant cosmos.

Luo Yuan and the lean, silver-haired old man remained calm throughout, which made Luo Feng, standing to the side, smile awkwardly, as his appearance was somewhat comical.

“It is indeed quite large!” Luo Yuan said with a smile as he looked at the supercontinent.

The stars and planets beside this enormous landmass floating in the starry sky are nothing but tiny specks! Even as the spaceship flew closer and closer, the continent still felt incredibly distant.

“It’s tens of millions of times larger than any planet I’ve ever seen. It’s enormous,” Luo Feng said, holding his breath.

"Your Highnesses, how is the company's global headquarters?" the lean old man beside him asked with a smile.

Luo Yuan asked in confusion, "How big is the headquarters?"

"How big?"

The lean old man shook his head and said, "If we don't travel through space to enter the dark universe, it would take at least several decades to fly from one side of headquarters to the other using a spaceship."

"You mean..." Luo Yuan was startled, "...that the diameter is around tens of light-years?"

One light-year is slightly more than nine trillion kilometers.

The Earth's diameter is only a little over 10,000 kilometers.

No wonder distant stars and planets look like sesame seeds; this continent floating in the universe... is ridiculously large.

"Hmm." The silver-haired, lean old man nodded.

"Where did such a large landmass come from?" Luo Feng couldn't help but ask. "Can such a large landmass naturally form in the universe?" Although the universe is mysterious and has many amazing places, it is still too incredible that a continent with a diameter of tens of light-years could be formed.

"I don't know," the lean old man shook his head.

Upon hearing this, the two did not ask any further questions.

Although his eyes could see the vast continent in the distant starry sky, it took the F-class spaceship, traveling at near the speed of light, about thirteen hours to reach one of the entrances to the virtual universe company's global headquarters. During the journey, Luo Yuan felt that the entire continent was built in a beautiful and fantastical way.

What appeared to be beautiful natural scenery of the universe, as the spaceship entered the mainland, Luo Yuan still sensed the advanced technology hidden behind this 'nature'.

"Your Highnesses, those stars, planets, meteorites, and other celestial bodies surrounding the headquarters continent are actually extremely terrifying technological weapons," the lean old man explained in the luxurious hall of the spaceship.

"Oh?" Luo Yuan nodded. "With the company's methods, those stars and planets are indeed like toys that can be manipulated at will."

Even immortal beings can manipulate stars.

Given the incredible technological capabilities of the Virtual Universe Company, the fact that even a World Lord knows those modified stars and planets are weapons suggests they're probably just for show... The true defensive trump card of the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters is far more complex than that.

call!

The spaceship traveled at near-light speed for several minutes through the continent's entrance passage before finally slowing down and coming to a stop.

Luo Yuan and Luo Feng, accompanied by Realm Lord Sha Wu and others, flew out of the hatch together. As for the immortal god on the top floor of the spaceship, he never showed his face.

Chapter 136 Time Tunnel

When Luo Yuan and his group emerged from the spaceship, they found more than ten men and women in uniforms waiting outside. As the group arrived, the leader of the group, a man in a silver battle robe with blue horns, stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Highness Luo Yuan, Your Highness Luo Feng, we are waiting here by order of the Venerable One. Please follow me, Your Highnesses."

"Mm." Luo Yuan and Luo Feng nodded.

"Thanks, Sha Wu." Luo Yuan turned to look at the lean old man.

Realm Lord Sha Wu smiled and said, "It is my honor to accompany Your Highnesses for three years."

Then, the two went their separate ways.

Luo Yuan and his companion walked together with the silver-robed, green-horned man and others along a dreamlike corridor. The latter half of the corridor was transparent, allowing a clear view of the beautiful starry sky outside and the surrounding mountain scenery.

"Your Highness Luo Yuan, Your Highness Luo Feng." Three people were already waiting in front of the corridor.

"Hmm?" Luo Yuan and the other looked at the newcomer with suspicion.

"Your Highnesses, these are the items you purchased. As per your original request, the transaction will be completed at headquarters." The three men presented the items.

Because Luo Yuan spent the last three years of his journey in the Dark Universe, and also cultivated in the 'Virtual Universe' for those three years, he didn't require the immediate delivery of the three sets of secret manuals he exchanged with points, as well as the nutrient capsules and nutrient solutions prepared by the Virtual Universe Company staff. The original plan was to deliver them to headquarters at the end, since it was generally not allowed to send these supplies to Chaos City.

"Okay, thanks." Luo Yuan took the spatial ring from one of the people, scanned it with his spiritual power, and smiled with satisfaction.

……

After receiving the supplies, Luo Yuan and his companion were led into an oval-shaped hall in a short time. The entire hall was transparent, with the surrounding area and ceiling completely transparent. Looking up, one could see the infinite starry sky, and in the distance, one could see the beautiful scenery of the headquarters. Moreover, one could see spaceships at any time, and even immortal beings flying by like shooting stars.

"Luo Yuan, you've arrived."

"You're here too, you madman."

As soon as Luo Yuan and Luo Feng entered, they were immediately welcomed by many people.

"Rong Jun, Wu Ka, Qian Shui." Luo Yuan greeted them one by one with a smile. After three years of arduous training at Yu Xiang Mountain, he had naturally had a lot of interaction with the young people who had joined at the same time. Over the past three years, apart from a very few extremely reclusive individuals, most of them had become friends, or at least they could chat and laugh together.

Perhaps many of them were arrogant in the past, but their arrogance stemmed from loneliness and a lack of outstanding rivals of the same level.
