Swallowing the Stars: Providing a Loan to Luo Feng Begins

Chapter 58 Galactic Empire! (3.2k)

The qualifiers are over.

Luo Feng has attracted the attention of many forces.

Black Dragon Mountain Empire, Qianwu Branch of Virtual Universe Company, Qianwu Secret Realm... and so on, all kinds of forces, big and small, are planning to win over Luo Feng.

They should at least come and present a congratulatory gift.

There is some social interaction involved.

But Luo Feng continued his peaceful cultivation as usual, detached from worldly affairs, and even had Babata intercept the information, announcing to the outside world that he was going into seclusion...

He heard from Chen Qi that as long as he cultivates diligently now, he is certain to win first place in the Genius Battle given the current conditions.

However, there is a prerequisite:
'Actively cultivate oneself'.

If he becomes complacent because of some achievements, then it won't be so easy for him to face the 'Bolan' that Chen Qi mentioned.

Inside the system space, Chen Qi was calculating Luo Feng's current level.

In the original timeline, Luo Feng first challenged the 'Bridge to Heaven' upon entering Chaos City, but failed to clear even one level.

And Berlan.

He was extremely ambitious and chose the 'Cosmic Chaos Monument' which was not suitable for him, but he still managed to pass through the first and second levels.

"The current Luo Feng possesses a 'Soul Devouring Domain Beast Avatar' with a stronger perception of spatial laws than the Demon Killing Clan in the original timeline. The timeline he caught up with in the early stages also gave Luo Feng a few more years of cultivation time."

"This low-end version of the Nine Universes Chaos Stele can also greatly improve the speed of perceiving spatial laws."

"If Luo Feng continues to cultivate like this, it will be a sign of his insane dedication."

"At that time."

Chen Qi had some wild imaginations about how terrifying Luo Feng would become in a few years. Perhaps he would be one or two levels stronger than Bolan's Tongtianqiao.
It might not be the 'Stepping Stone-Berlan' plan by then.

It was the 'annihilate Berlan' plan.

Chen Qi thought to himself:

"The next target is a genius of the Koti level!"

Right here on Earth.

Within Luo Feng's human body, a lamp was lit in his sea of ​​consciousness, and the mental power within his sea of ​​consciousness suddenly erupted in an instant.

"Boom~"

Candlelight and heart-shaped lamp!

This bewitching white flame constantly scorched Luo Feng's will. At this moment, Luo Feng took the initiative to activate his inner lamp, causing it to erupt with an even more raging fire.

For a while.

The three bodies are located in different positions.

In a secluded spot on Mars, the Golden Horned Beast opened its eyes, its enormous dark golden pupils revealing a cold glint.

Within the Golden Horned Beast's inner world, before the colossal Nine Universes Chaos Stele, the Soul Devouring Domain Beast avatar was constantly comprehending its secrets.

The Soul-Devouring Beast clone trembled, but still maintained the stability of its own energy life form.

The domain radiated energy. The Soul Devouring Domain Beast's true form was a mysterious four-legged, transparent beast-shaped creature pieced together from small cubes. Its body trembled continuously, but its consciousness was forcibly controlled in this state, still maintaining its comprehension of the Chaos Stele.

The burning of the Heart Lamp affects consciousness, allowing all three clones to simultaneously feel the torment and pain emanating from the depths of their souls.

Time passed little by little.

Until.

Luo Feng couldn't hold on any longer either. He felt that his Soul Devouring Beast clone was about to give up and continue comprehending the Nine Universe Chaos Stele.

The flame of the 'heart lamp' quickly faded.

The intensity of the heart fire can be freely controlled by Luo Feng. Therefore, the cultivation of this secret technique requires a firm will. Those who are not firm in their will will not be ruthless to themselves.

"Woo~"

Luo Feng let out a long breath and said, "I've improved again. This time it lasted for three hours."

"You're already amazing. The maximum intensity of the Heart Lamp is determined by the strength of your consciousness in your sea of ​​consciousness. You've gone from only being able to sustain it for a few minutes at the beginning to now being able to do it continuously for three hours." Chen Qi felt admiration for you; he didn't think he could endure this kind of hardship.

Moreover, while tempering his will, Luo Feng was also forcing his Soul Devouring Beast clone to comprehend the Nine Universe Chaos Stele, maintaining a certain level of consciousness and rationality.

"Chen Qi, I've discovered that when tempering my will, I should persist in studying the Chaos Stele."

“Once the burning of the Heart Lamp has subsided, it will be much easier to return to the usual state of immersing oneself in the understanding of the laws. The effects of this ‘Candlelight Heart Lamp’ are actually far more than just tempering one’s will,” Luo Feng said.

Chen Qi thought for a moment and said:
"Could it be similar to 'weight training' for ordinary people when running?"

Luo Feng nodded; he agreed.

Babata's voice rang out at this moment:
"Mr. Chen Qi, Luo Feng, we have received several messages in the virtual universe. There are quite a few people waiting to see you on Black Dragon Mountain Island."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qi's heart stirred, and he asked:
"In the virtual universe? Which forces are involved? The Black Dragon Mountain Empire?"

“Yes, the Black Dragon Mountain Emperor, the Silver Blue Emperor, and the Immortal ‘Manluo’, the Immortal ‘Moyue’ of the Qianwu Secret Realm…” Babata said one by one.

so much?
Luo Feng had Babata intercept some ordinary organizations and forces, saying that he was in seclusion for cultivation.
He could understand the Silver Blue Emperor and the Black Dragon Mountain Emperor, since they were his hometowns, and it was normal for Lord Manluo to come to celebrate. But why did the immortal powerhouse from the Qianwu Secret Realm also come?
“Chen Qi, it can’t be that I eliminated ‘Jingyue’ from the Qianwu Secret Realm and came here to cause trouble, right? Besides, the names of this immortal ‘Moyue’ and that ‘Jingyue’ both contain the character ‘moon’, could they be related?”

Luo Feng was also very puzzled.

Chen Qi said, "It shouldn't be. The Qianwu Secret Realm isn't so petty as to have to intervene over something so small."

Virtual universe, Heilongshan Island. In front of the house Luo Feng purchased in Jiuxingwan residential area.

Originally, only Immortal 'Manluo' was there. He had just informed Luo Feng that he was coming when he saw the others.

"Mo Yue, the Black Dragon Mountain Emperor, the Silver Blue Emperor..."

Manluo looked at the arriving delegation of special envoys. They stood in clear and orderly positions. At the front was the immortal 'Moyue' from the Qianwu Secret Realm, followed by the realm lords of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire and the Qianwu Secret Realm.

Last.

The Emperor of the Silver Blue Empire was among some of his attendants and officials of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

"Manluo?"

Mo Yue from the Qianwu Secret Realm noticed Man Luo.

Although both are immortals, one is directly under the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom and the other is on assignment at the Virtual Universe Company, the two are acquainted and often meet at banquets.

Manlu asked, "Why are you here?"

"My king sent me to bring Luo Feng a gift," Mo Yue said with a smile, pointing to the Silver Blue Empire emperor behind her.

Upon hearing this, Manlu was startled.

The ruler?

These words came from Mo Yue.

Isn't this referring to the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom?
'How come Luo Feng has even alarmed the Lord of the Qianwu Kingdom? That shouldn't be the case. Normally, even the world's number one winner in the final round of the Genius Battle wouldn't necessarily catch the Lord of the Qianwu Kingdom's eye.'

Manlu thought to herself, "I'm cursing."

He also brought some gifts, but they were certainly incomparable to those of the King of Qianwu.

Even a slight slip from the Qianwu Kingdom ruler is something that an immortal like him cannot compare to.

Luo Feng logged into the virtual universe and appeared in the Nine Star Bay residential area. He walked over to greet her and said, "Lady Manluo, are you... Senior Moyue?"

"Yes, I am Mo Yue." Mo Yue smiled. He hadn't expected that all his efforts to help his juniors gain face in front of the king would end up benefiting this young man.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances.

The ruler of a nation wouldn't pay attention to someone who's ranked number one in the world. The ruler of Qianwu is a very ancient ruler of the universe, and he's seen far too many genius battles.

Generally, the rewards are decided by the higher-ups of the Qianwu Secret Realm in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. In name only, they are bestowed by the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler, but in reality, the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler is too lazy to care. Only if a genius achieves a good ranking at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company can he be of any interest.

This time, Luo Feng was personally bestowed upon him by the King of the Kingdom...

"Gentlemen, please..." Luo Feng opened the door to welcome the group into the room and seated them one by one.

Mo Yue got straight to the point:

"The king sent me to deliver a congratulatory gift."

"The King? Could it be?" Luo Feng knew the status of the King of Qianwu Kingdom; he was a powerful cosmic venerable.

"Yes, it is our Qianwu Kingdom's ruler. The gift includes two parts, one of which is..." Mo Yue was saying when her gaze swept across her own group and found the 'Silver Blue Emperor'.

The Silver Blue Emperor immediately stepped forward.

"The first gift is the territory of the 'Silver Blue Empire.' Officials from our Qianwu Universe Kingdom are also here. Luo Feng, you can send someone to handle the formalities later. Then the Silver Blue Empire will be yours, and the Qianwu Universe Kingdom will protect your empire for one era!" Mo Yue said directly.

Inside the system space, Chen Qi was somewhat surprised to hear about the reward. He hadn't expected Luo Feng to attract the attention of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler so early.

As for the Silver Blue Empire, its value is neither high nor low. The Carlo Empire, where Nolan Mountain is located, has a royal family whose strongest member is a domain lord. The Carlo Empire is also a relatively strong country within the territory of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

The Silver Blue Empire, also a primitive civilization in the universe, is actually just like that, with only one powerful domain lord in its royal family.

Luo Feng wanted to ask, "Would the Silver Blue Emperor agree to this?"
The Silver Blue Emperor immediately replied, "I have already agreed to this, Mr. Luo Feng, you don't need to worry about my problem."

The Qianwu Universe Kingdom gave him a considerable sum of compensation!

In other words, this is compensation for demolition!
Manlu was also listening nearby, and he was also interested in what congratulatory gifts the Qianwu Universe Kingdom had prepared...

“There’s a second gift. Before the Genius Battle Headquarters finals begin, our Qianwu Secret Realm will send a suitable Immortal expert to train you one-on-one for a month each year. Mr. Luo Feng can tell me about the ‘laws’ and ‘secret techniques’ he’s good at, and we’ll arrange a suitable teacher afterward,” Mo Yue said.

He then smiled and said:
"Of course, you can choose me too."

"It's just that I'm not very good at the Law of Metal and the Law of Space."

Mo Yue had already guessed that Luo Feng cultivated the laws of metal and space because he had the 'Divine Weapon' among the equipment he carried in the World Zone.

“Suitable one-on-one training for immortals?” Manluo was stunned.

Mo Yue then asked, "Does Lady Manluo have any objections?"

"No, no, no, I just didn't expect the great Qianwu Kingdom ruler to value Luo Feng so much." Manlu waved her hand.

“Our king has always valued talent, but he is busy with affairs and may not always pay attention to it. This time, however, he happened to notice Luo Feng,” Mo Yue replied politely.

Immediately, Mo Yue stood up and said:

"Luo Feng, once you've decided what kind of teacher you want, just send the information to my virtual account."

"I'll go back and report."

"Lord Moyue, please take care."

Luo Feng stood up to see him off.
As for the proper handling of the 'Silver Blue Empire' territory, Luo Feng instructed his younger brother Luo Hua to accompany him in the process.

Of course, the 'first emperor' was Luo Feng.

The royal family has changed, so the empire's name naturally needs to be changed as well. Luo Feng instructed Luo Hua to go and change the name with the government.
'Galactic Empire'!
