Swallowing the Stars: I, the New Master of Babata

"Qing, it's the last day. Are you... ready?"

Xu Xin's voice was gentle, and there was a hint of affection in it.

Very normal.

She had already tasted the sweetness of it all.

Like a thirsty fish.

He wished he could be with Dongqing 24/7.

However, Xu Xin, who understood the bigger picture, remained restrained.

"Preparation is for those who lack self-confidence; those who are confident in themselves don't need to cram at the last minute."

Dong Qing was not arrogant or complacent; rather, he believed that the best preparation was always mental preparation.

For example.

It's like having 100% of your potential. Under normal circumstances, you can unleash 100% of your potential, and that's the true reflection of your ability.

Under extreme pressure, you might underperform and perform at less than half your potential; however, you might also have a sudden burst of brilliance and perform exceptionally well.

As a person with a stable personality.

Dongqing has always pursued stability.

and so.

Dong Qing did not follow Hong's example of seclusion and last-minute cramming.

but.

The awakening of the Five Elements realm has multiplied Dongqing's strength several times over.

This kind of thing can be hard for people to understand.

But it can be explained by a line from a movie.

My money seems to reproduce; the more I spend, the more I have, and the more I spend... I can never spend it all!

Dong Qing's situation is similar now. Even though he hasn't deliberately pursued it or worked hard to cultivate, his strength has been increasing.

It's infuriating to think about.

But that's the reality.

It is very unfair between people.

There are many injustices in the real world as well.

Many low-level martial artists.

His temperament far surpasses that of Dongqing.

On effort.

On diligence.

Dong Qing isn't even worthy of carrying the shoes of these low-level martial artists.

But their talent limits their ultimate potential.

Dongqing's only advantage.

It means having self-awareness.

Leaving aside his past life, focusing only on this one, from the moment he was born, he knew he was a genius. After the appearance of the demon Babata, he discovered that he was a super genius who appeared only once every 50,000 years.

But he knew very well that if one's virtue does not match one's position, disaster will surely follow. The Earth is small, but the universe is vast. Even if he were invincible on Earth, in the vast universe, he would still be just a struggling ant.

However, ants have their own way of living.

Knowing how to be content with what you have is enough.

For example, right now.

Dong Qing could sense Xu Xin's unwavering devotion to him, and that she was a woman who truly depended on him wholeheartedly.

Undeniably, as the world's number one psychic, he has no intention of prying into the deepest thoughts of others.

But as human beings...

Selfishness and greed are things we can't avoid.

Just because he doesn't say something doesn't mean he won't do it.

........

The thirtieth day.

Dongqing did not cause any trouble last night.

Instead, he slept soundly all night.

Just like an ordinary person, going to bed on time to prepare for a new day.

Don't think this is easy. Not to mention martial artists, even ordinary people don't all go to bed on time.

One aspect is self-control.

One aspect is the pressure of life.

"Qing, are you really planning to broadcast the battle on the moon live worldwide?"

Xu Xin served Dong Qing the breakfast she had made early that morning.

Although she was a noblewoman from the Xu family.

The family is incredibly wealthy, comparable to a nation.

But Xu Xin is not a pampered young lady who never lifts a finger.

She was well-educated and even had a skill in weaving.

"There's no need to hide anything. The moon is so close; anyone with a little ability can see the general situation of a lunar war."

Dongqing no longer needed to eat, and ordinary food could not fill his stomach, but as a human being, he could not forget his roots.

Three steamed buns and one fried dough stick.

A cup of soy milk, a bowl of white porridge.

After successfully resolving the cravings for food in my memory.

Dongqing stepped out the door and boarded a spaceship.

This is a small spaceship.

It comes from the relics of ancient civilizations.

The five major powers under the Planetary Security Defense Council possess numerous small spacecraft like these.

After all, if you don't even have spaceships, establishing a space force and building a space fleet would be a complete joke.

.......

Ten minutes later.

Solar system, south pole of the moon, edge of Shackleton crater.

Here, the eternal shadow zone meets the sunlight zone, forming a sharp dividing line between light and darkness, and the gray lunar soil gleams with a metallic sheen under the sunlight.

The distant craters, undulating like scars on the earth, have a gravity only one-sixth that of Earth, and there is no sound in the air.

It is the only natural satellite orbiting the Earth, and also the closest celestial body to Earth.

月球平均半径为1737千米，体积为地球的1/49，质量为地球的1/81。

The average distance between the Earth and the Moon is 384400 kilometers.

The moon takes 27.3 days to orbit the Earth.

"We have arrived at our destination!"

"The spaceship is slowing down."

"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, spaceship deceleration successful!"

With a barely perceptible tremor, Dongqing's spaceship came to rest on the lunar surface.

"Snap!"

The hatch opened.

Dongqing walked out.

As a planetary-level powerhouse, although not possessing a lifespan of a full epoch (10081 years) like a star-level powerhouse, they can survive in space for extended periods and even have the ability to travel across star systems, such as venturing beyond a star system.

However, in a short period of time, lifespan has begun to undergo a qualitative change. Planetary-level powerhouses with lifespans of thousands of years can maintain the most basic vital signs even without wearing any protective equipment, as long as they are not in the most dangerous places in the universe.

Moreover, this is only a planetary-level powerhouse with the most ordinary strength.

The fact that Dongqing and Hong stayed for an extended period of time was not a problem.

To put it bluntly...

Even if the Earth explodes.

Dongqing, Hong, and Leishen are powerful figures who stand at the pinnacle of Earth.

There is a chance of survival as long as one escapes into space before the Earth explodes.

"You've arrived?"

As soon as Dong Qing stepped out of the cabin, he felt the suppression of the domain exclusive to Hong, the world's number one powerhouse.

Hong's domain originates from the domain of light in the law of light, which is a subordinate law of the time school.

The same reason.

Dongqing's Five Elements Laws, as well as the Five Elements Domains that have just been awakened—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—are also the five lower-level laws of the Space faction.

In terms of the strength of the laws, Dongqing only has a numerical advantage, not a qualitative one, but this does not even take into account Dongqing's own mental power.

Spiritual power is awakened at birth.

Get stronger as you get older.

For example.

Just like the Super Saiyans in Dragon Ball, a globally renowned anime, before the Great Nirvana.

Other Saiyans have to go through life-and-death trials to transform into Super Saiyans, but Dongqing was born that way.

But the stronger one's mental power, the better.

The more cautious Dongqing was in using it, the better.

No way.

Dong Qing dared not abuse his mental power, not because he was afraid that his physical body could not withstand the intensity of his mental power, but because the speed at which his mental power automatically increased would never exceed the limit that his physical body could bear.

Dong Qing's main concern was that his moral compass would collapse if he abused his mental powers, because he had inadvertently discovered that he could use his mental powers to enslave any person or monster on Earth.

This includes Hong and Thor.

They were all within the scope of Dongqing's enslavement.

This ability.

That's too incredible.

Dong Qing was unaware of what happened after he enslaved someone's soul with his mental power.

What uncontrollable harm is done to this enslaved being?

However, if the use of this ability is not controlled.

Dongqing will eventually get lost in it.

"I am coming!"

Dong Qing also directly unleashed his own domain, the Five Elements Domain...
