Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 211

Although he supports Rong Jun more, he has to admit that Luo Feng now has a bit of the flair of a genius from tens of millions of eras.

Whether he truly reaches the level of a genius spanning tens of millions of epochs depends on whether he can ultimately overcome the Primal Tongtian Mountain, which is at the level of a World Lord.

After Luo Feng completed the crossing of the Tongtian Bridge, the four of them ended their chat and left.

The last Ultra clone to leave smiled slightly as it watched Luo Feng exit the virtual universe and sent an email.

Luo Feng broke through the fourteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven in one go, and his understanding of the laws reached the peak of the Immortal Army Lord. Although he could not compare with Lu Yunhe's previous breakthrough of the sixteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven in one go, he still surpassed countless geniuses and caused a great shock in the Virtual Universe Company.

"Stopping at the fourteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven, still not as good as the teacher!"

Luo Feng, who had just emerged from outside the Tongtian Bridge, sat on the rooftop of his quiet cultivation residence, recalling the battles he had just fought.

The guardians of the Tongtian Bridge are characterized by a single standard: standard combat skills, standard level of understanding and application of the laws. This resonated deeply with Luo Feng.

"I'll postpone my study of the 'Nine Universes Chaos Stele' for now. I've gained quite a few insights from just passing through several levels of the Heavenly Bridge. I'll take the time to reflect on and organize my thoughts before heading to the City Lord's Mansion to examine the Nine Universes Chaos Stele."

In each battle on the Tongtian Bridge, Luo Feng would spar with his opponents for dozens of rounds, clearly observing all their techniques for using divine weapons, and then incorporating those techniques into his own combat.

"Babata, turn off the virtual universe network receiver for me. Don't let anyone disturb me. I need to cultivate in peace now."

Luo Feng did not slacken his efforts because of the commotion he had caused; on the contrary, he cultivated even more diligently.

After the matter had escalated sufficiently, Luo Feng, who was sitting cross-legged on the rooftop with his eyes closed, slowly emerged from his meditative state, a slight smile on his face: "After some reflection, I've gained quite a bit."

"Babata," Luo Feng cried out in his heart.

"Here!" Babata replied enthusiastically. As long as Luo Feng reached the Domain Lord level, Babata would automatically recognize him as its master. Therefore, Babata was very enthusiastic and quick to respond to Luo Feng's orders.

"Activate virtual universe network reception." Luo Feng smiled. "I reckon quite a few powerful beings have sent emails."

"Understood." Babata was also very pleased. With Luo Feng's demonstrated talent, it probably wouldn't be long before he could avenge his former master.

"I don't know who will send the emails, and I don't know who I should ask to become their apprentice. Should I ask Master Zhenyan? I'm a bit troubled."

Luo Feng thought to himself that although his displayed aptitude was still not enough to attract the supreme ruler of the universe, it was enough to attract beings at the level of the ruler of a universe kingdom.

After a long while, Luo Feng realized that Babata still hadn't answered him, which made him somewhat puzzled.

"Babata, what's wrong?"

“Only one!” Babata said with a mournful face.

"?"

A question mark popped into Luo Feng's mind, wondering if something was wrong with Babata?

"Who is this Venerable Ultra? I've never heard of him before?"

Following the address sent in the email, Luo Feng headed to the other side of Chaos City.

Something unusual must be going on. Luo Feng believed that his act of crossing the Tongtian Bridge would definitely attract the envy of those cosmic venerables, and it was impossible that he only received one email accepting disciples.

Luo Feng swiftly traversed the Chaos City, and soon followed the address in the virtual universe to a secluded corner of the city, where an ancient palace stood.

Upon Luo Feng's arrival, the palace gates opened immediately, and he walked in without hesitation.

It is absolutely safe in Chaos City; there is no way you will encounter any danger.

"Greetings, Venerable Ultra!"

Luo Feng arrived at the palace hall and saw a humanoid figure dressed in armor, with a body covered in red, blue and silver colors, and eyes like light bulbs.

This familiar appearance instantly left Luo Feng somewhat bewildered.

“Xiaofeng, you can call me—Master Ultra!” said the Ultra clone.

It was indeed inconvenient for the main body to accept disciples, after all, he was in the same year as Luo Feng when he participated in the Genius Battle.

However, Ultraman's clone is perfectly suitable. He is a top-tier cosmic overlord, and an existence that can rival the true cosmic ruler. At this time, Luo Feng is more than capable of taking him as a disciple.

"Master Ultra!"

Luo Feng asked respectfully, then, somewhat excited and incredulous, "Master, you've already broken through to the Universe Venerable realm?"

"Sir!"

Ultraman's clone nodded slightly, instantly plunging Luo Feng into a tremendous shock.

It was already incredible that he had managed to pass through the Tongtian Mountain, which was at the level of a World Lord, but now, in the blink of an eye, he has become the supreme ruler of the universe.

Luo Feng passed the fourteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge, thinking that the gap between him and his master was getting closer and closer, but he did not expect that the gap was now even greater.

At this moment, Babata in the virtual universe suddenly made contact with a trace of Luo Feng's consciousness left in the virtual universe.

"Luo Feng, my access level has suddenly been upgraded, and I've also found information about Ultraman Venerable for you. You've hit the jackpot!" Babata shouted excitedly.

"Babata!"

At this moment, Luo Feng disregarded etiquette and directly immersed his consciousness in the virtual universe to observe.

Suddenly, a lot of information about Ultraman was released: the fourth top cosmic overlord among humans, who fought to a draw with the cosmic lord of the demon race, and who possessed a heaven-defying treasure...

The incredible information left Luo Feng somewhat dazed for a moment.

He and his teacher joined Chaos City together, so how come in the blink of an eye, he was still at the Realm Lord level while his teacher had already surpassed the Universe Kingdom Lord level?

"Luo Feng, hurry up and become his disciple! This Ultraman Venerable is even stronger than the Qianwu Universe King..." Babata shouted frantically in the virtual universe.

However, Luo Feng then immediately shut down the virtual universe communication and said excitedly, "Teacher, about Earth..."

The more extraordinary their Earth lineage's performance became during this period, the more worried Luo Feng felt, fearing that one day a powerful figure would discover Earth's secrets.

"I'll be overseeing Earth for a while, so you can rest assured for now," Ultraman's clone said with a smile.

"Disciple understands!" Luo Feng bowed and said.

"You once possessed the Golden Horned Beast, making you well-suited to cultivate the path of the Beast God. I have already exchanged the corresponding secret techniques for you in the virtual universe."

Ultraman's clone handed over the "Seven Kills of the Beast God" created by Hirodo and the secret techniques of the Golden Void Beast God Path created by his main body to Luo Feng in the virtual universe.

"You can focus on your cultivation in Chaos City for the rest of the time. If you have any questions, you can ask me in the virtual universe at any time. When you're ready to leave Chaos City for further training, go find the main body again," said Ultraman's clone.

"Yes!"

Luo Feng said respectfully, and finally left the ancient hall where the Ultra clone was located, feeling both dazed and delighted.

After leaving, Luo Feng did not forget to visit the Nine Swords Venerable's exclusive plane, since the latter was his direct superior in terms of status.

After becoming a disciple of Venerable Ultra, he lost all connection with Venerable Nine Swords and became someone else's subordinate.

"Haha, Luo Feng, it seems we are indeed not destined to be together. Venerable Ultra's strength is comparable to the Lord of the Universe, and as his first disciple, your status is comparable to that of a King-level Immortal. You must not slack off in your cultivation in the future."

Nine Swords Venerable was much more polite to Luo Feng. As a Universe Venerable, he naturally understood the significance of the rumored feat of fighting the Lord of the Universe to a draw.

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Luo Feng bowed.

……

Chapter 270 Earth

"Ultraman has actually taken Luo Feng as his disciple!"

The Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master, who was guarding the Blood Luo Continent, was somewhat taken aback upon learning this news.

Although Luo Feng's qualifications were good at the time, they were just so-so to them, not enough to make them particularly interested.

"However, it was also Luo Feng's luck that he was accepted as a disciple by Venerable Ultra."

The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace thought for a moment and realized that it was probably because Venerable Ultra had been hiding his identity all along. Now that he had returned to his clan and taken a genius as his disciple, it could be considered a way for him to actively integrate into the clan.

After all, the master-disciple relationship is one of the closest relationships in this world.

"No wonder Venerable Ultra favors Luo Feng more, now I understand."

When the Venerable Ancestor Tree learned of this, he was also somewhat amused and exasperated.

“However, Venerable Ultra probably observed Luo Feng before, but I wonder what identity he had when he appeared among the humans!” Venerable Ancestral Tree pondered.

Given their capabilities, they would definitely observe their disciples carefully before accepting them; they wouldn't just do it on a whim.

Therefore, Ultraman must have other identities among humans.

……

"I never imagined that my teacher had become so powerful. I must work hard to catch up with him."

After leaving Ultraman, Luo Feng quickly recovered from his shock and cheered himself up.

Cultivation also has diminishing marginal returns. No matter how fast you cultivate in the early stages, the upper limit of the world is fixed. After reaching a certain level, it will definitely slow down, and that will be his opportunity.

Just like his master, True King, whom he apprenticed under in Chaos City, he must have been a genius to be able to cultivate to the level of King-level Invincible. However, he was stuck at this level for countless years and could not make any progress.

"Let's set a small goal first: surpass Teacher Zhenyan!"

Luo Feng firmly believed in his heart that the realm of the Universe King was too far away from him, but the realm of the Immortal God was within his grasp. In terms of laws, he was only one step away from being comparable to the Immortal God who had been granted the title of Marquis.

"The Way of the Beast God!"

Afterwards, Luo Feng returned to his lodgings and his consciousness entered the palace of Yuxiang Mountain, where he began to look at the secret manual of the Golden Void Beast God's Path that his teacher had exchanged for him.

Upon contact, Luo Feng couldn't help but immerse himself in it. Although he believed himself to be human, his body and mind were still affected after possessing the Golden Horned Beast.

Deep within the Chaotic Ruins, in the Treasure Refining Hall!

"Very good, the matter of Luo Feng becoming an apprentice has been resolved." Lu Yunhe nodded as he looked at the information about Ultraman's clone accepting Luo Feng as an apprentice.

If Luo Feng were to become the master of the Chaos City Lord again, he would be unable to hold back, so he quickly sent Ultraman's clone to take action.

He even used his privileges in the virtual universe to directly block other people's emails to Luo Feng about accepting disciples, just like when he became the disciple of Xi Yue Wang.

However, Lu Yunhe misjudged the situation this time. Since Earth's secrets had not been fully exposed, the Chaos City Lord naturally had no interest in Luo Feng.

"Then let Ultraman's clone go and guard Earth."

Lu Yunhe pondered that the matters in Chaos City had been mostly resolved, and no problems had arisen with the human race, so he could now focus on his cultivation.

Next, as long as the founder of the giant axe is not "sacrificed," there shouldn't be any major problems.

As for the human race crisis after obtaining the Duan Donghe inheritance, it is actually easier for Lu Yunhe to solve because the world is on his side.

On the other side, Ultraman's clone, after receiving a message from Lu Yunhe, also left the initial universe and headed to Earth.

Because he left no divine power imprint, Ultraman's clone could only return instantly. Although he became a cosmic ruler based on the law of time, he had already mastered teleportation at the immortal stage, so he didn't need to fly slowly.
