Swallowing the Stars: Start with an Enlightenment System

A year has passed in the blink of an eye.

After a year of arduous training, Baiyuan finally reached the peak of the ninth level of apprentice, just one step away from the planetary level.

Bai Yuan had already studied the secret technique of "Immortal Vajra Body" and found that he could only formally cultivate it after breaking through to the planetary level, so he had to put it aside for the time being.

The biggest improvement was that he grasped the artistic conceptions of "Hurricane Gold" and "Gilded Gold".

While part of the reason is that his "Sharp Metal Intent" has reached its peak and laid an excellent foundation, being able to achieve this level is enough to demonstrate that his comprehension is by no means inferior to that of ordinary first-class elites.

"Phew, it's about time I broke through."

Upon learning that Bai Yuan was about to break through, Bai Tianning immediately rushed over to protect him.

Baiyuan slowly closed his eyes, and then made one strange gesture after another.

This is a guiding technique personally created by the immortal god of the Blade Clan for their race. It can maximize the body's potential and make the process of breaking through to the planetary level smoother.

As he began to move, his whole body gradually heated up, and every cell seemed to awaken from its slumber. The pent-up genetic energy within him began to gather like a trickle.

Heat surged from all parts of the body, swirling and rushing, eventually collapsing and condensing towards the dantian in the abdomen.

The original energy contracts and expands in the dantian, and with each cycle, its volume solidifies by one unit.

After an unknown amount of time, a dazzling golden miniature planet slowly emerged from the depths of the vast Qi Sea.

It was a whole composed of countless tightly aggregated golden six-sided crystals, slowly rotating and emitting strange fluctuations.

The next moment, surging genetic energy rushed into his body like a tide, and his body began a complete transformation at the level of life.

"Hmm? What a thorough upgrade! Could it be the Vajra Body?"

Bai Tianning's eyes lit up immediately.

Once a martial artist reaches the planetary level, they will absorb and transform genetic energy of different attributes due to their different physical constitution and soul.

This is both a leap in life and the true starting point for a martial artist.

Among the many metallic genetic primal energies, "Diamond Body" is undoubtedly one of the top-tier abilities!

Once activated, the genetic energy will be completely integrated into the muscles, bones, and flesh, making the bone density and muscle strength far exceed those of martial artists of the same level.

The stronger the bones, the greater the strength, the faster the speed, and the tougher the defense, naturally leading to a whole new level of power.

When Baiyuan successfully broke through, he was overjoyed to learn that he had awakened the Vajra Body.

What surprised him was not this special ability.

After all, no matter how strong a special ability is, it can only be used up to the level of the Eternal Star, and even then, it may not be used at all.

What truly caught his eye was the cultivation conditions for the secret technique "Immortal Vajra Body".

While it's not necessary to possess a Vajra Body to cultivate, having this special ability will make early-stage cultivation much more efficient.

The creator of the Immortal Vajra Body created this secret technique based on the special ability of the Vajra Body.

"Alright, now that you've broken through to the planetary level, when do you plan to set off? Why don't you go stay with your second uncle for a while?"

"I'd better not. There are too many rules in the army, I can't stand them. I want to go out and make my own way in the world."

Upon hearing this, Bai Tianning did not insist, but simply nodded slightly and then took out a storage ring.

"Keep it; it contains some things I prepared for you."

This time, Baiyuan did not refuse.

Without resources, it would be impossible to make any progress in the universe.

The storage ring contained quite a lot of items.

Energy crystals and wood crystals are naturally the basic equipment, enough to support him in cultivating to the cosmic level without having to worry about spaceship energy and cultivation resources.

In addition, there is an account certificate from the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, which contains 100 million Qianwu coins!

If converted to the common currency of a mid-level cosmic civilization, it would be 100 billion, and usually more.

Further on are three weapons and armor.

A mid-grade Tier 3 Force battle sword, a mid-grade Tier 3 Force shield, and a set of top-grade Tier 3 Force armor.

The first two items together are worth tens of millions of Qianwu coins.

But that last set of Tier 3 top-grade Force Armor is worth at least 500 million!

In addition, there is a C9-class spaceship, which is also quite expensive.

Of course, these are just a drop in the ocean for Bai Tianning, who possesses thousands of life-bearing planets.

The spaceship traveled all the way until it entered the territory of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, where Bai Tianning finally delivered Bai Yuan to an interstellar port.

That's all for now. From now on, you're on your own.

"Don't worry, Uncle, I'll take good care of myself."

At the port, many people stared in disbelief in the direction Baiyuan had left.

Anyone with eyes can see that this young man's background is anything but simple.

"What class of spaceship was that just now? It seemed even more impressive than our boss's Class C ship!"

"Nonsense, the boss's ship is only C2 class, while theirs is at least D class! Do you know how many zeros that is?"

"Wait, he's from the Blade Clan! A legitimate member of an immortal power!"

The moment the words "Immortal Force" were uttered, a collective gasp of astonishment filled the air.

It should be noted that the strongest being in the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire is only an Immortal.

Baiyuan ignored the surprised looks around him and walked straight toward the crowded area.

He already had a plan in mind: first, he would cultivate to the Hengxing level in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and then go to the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance to participate in the assessment for trainee mercenaries.

To venture into the universe with only planetary-level strength is tantamount to courting death.

The planet where Baiyuan is currently located belongs to the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and its lord is a powerful expert at the seventh level of the universe.

Although it is far less prosperous than Qiulong Star, it is still considered quite good within the empire's territory.

Before me stood a magnificent building, a sculpture of a black dragon coiled around the mountain, which was the official office building of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire on this planet.

"You must first obtain imperial citizenship, otherwise you will face restrictions in everything you do."

Having citizenship means being protected by imperial law, and even cosmic-level powerhouses dare not openly attack him within the Black Dragon Mountain territory.

Without this identity, even if he were killed, the empire would not care.

As he entered the building, before he could even speak, the receptionist had already approached him.

"Sir, are you here to apply for Imperial citizenship? This way, please."

Baiyuan shrugged. Anyone could recognize him as a member of the Blade Clan with his appearance.

The Blade Clan's "adventures and trials" are no secret; anyone with a bit of inside information has heard of them, so it's not uncommon for them to receive young Blade Clan members.

For these Blade race members who are new to the universe, obtaining Imperial citizenship is often the first thing they do after entering space.

Upon learning that Baiyuan was a member of the Blade Clan, the staff immediately greeted him with warm smiles.

Everyone knows that behind the Blade Clan stands an immortal god, and even the Black Dragon Mountain Empire is unwilling to easily offend such a power.

The entire process went exceptionally smoothly.

Bai Yuan only spent 50 Black Dragon Coins to obtain a brand-new Imperial Citizenship Certificate.

It can only be said that in this vast universe, strength and background are often more important than money.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a member of the Blade Clan, obtaining such proof of identity would probably not have been so easy for him.

As for the 50 Black Dragon Coins, they were just some change he got from selling a few unwanted items along the way.
