Swallowing the Stars: Equipment Slots, Starting with a Genius Battle

The fundamental laws governing fire and space have not changed significantly.

Because, for the past seven days, he had been sorting out the essence of the laws he had previously comprehended.

Solid foundation.

The effect of the two pieces of equipment significantly reduces the duration of the permanent effect.

Equipment 1: January 1, 3649.

Equipment 2: 11 years and 9 months.

Seven days equals seven years!

Ye Feng was very satisfied with the result.

"After comprehending the Chaos Stele twice more, the second effect of the 'Heavenly Fire Notes' will be solidified, allowing you to equip the 'Flame Star Beast' life core."

Surrounded by a group of geniuses, Ye Feng strolled out of the city lord's mansion.

"Haha, Your Highness Ye Feng, are you reluctant to leave?"

A clear, melodious female voice, tinged with a hint of amusement, resounded directly in Ye Feng's mind.

Ye Feng, who was looking down and organizing his thoughts, looked in the direction of the sound.

At the end of the street, a figure clad in streamlined purple scale armor walked slowly towards them. Beneath the scale armor helmet was a pretty face with a bright smile, yet her aura was as deep and unyielding as a mountain.

"You are..." Ye Feng was certain that he had never seen this person before, but the powerful pressure emanating from the other person made him instantly alert.

The woman in purple scales approached, her voice carrying a hint of friendliness: "Let me introduce myself. I am 'Zisu,' also known as 'Longyu King,' and I serve under your teacher, the Nine Swords Venerable."

Her gaze swept over Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Wu Ka, and the others beside Ye Feng.

"Greetings, King Longyu!" Luo Feng and the others quickly bowed and paid their respects.

Ye Feng also bowed slightly, showing respect: "King Longyu!"

Although the other party is under the teacher's command, the majesty of the immortal king cannot be taken lightly.

The smile on Longyu King's face widened, and he reached out to help him up, saying, "Your Highness is a disciple personally taught by the Venerable One, there is no need for such formalities."

Ye Feng straightened up and simply smiled in response.

Despite the difference in strength, even a cosmic-level being cannot disregard the proper etiquette when facing an immortal king.

"As expected of the foremost of the three treasures of Chaos City." Ye Feng changed the subject, his tone filled with genuine admiration.

"After seven days of contemplation, many things that were once obscure suddenly became clear, and the path of the laws became so clear."

The feeling of rapidly increasing strength and the dissipation of all mystery is truly intoxicating.

Longyu Wang nodded: "The Chaos Stele does have a guiding effect, pointing you in the right direction. But your progress comes more from your own accumulation."

Once your accumulation is exhausted, your progress will naturally slow down. For you, the most urgent task is to seize more opportunities for enlightenment. Go and conquer the Heavenly Bridge; with your strength, gaining a few more opportunities for enlightenment is not difficult.” She spoke gently.

"Thank you for your guidance, King Longyu," Ye Feng replied solemnly.

"Before crossing the Heavenly Bridge, you must first choose a place to live in this Chaos City. This will be your cultivation ground for the next thirty years." King Longyu changed the subject, his eyes filled with a deeper meaning. "There are quite a few things to consider. If you choose the right place, you can save yourself a lot of trouble."

"Please enlighten me, Jade King!" Ye Feng's eyes brightened slightly. He naturally knew the key to this.

Chaos City has stood for billions of years, where countless cultivators have studied the 52 Chaos Steles. The powerful predecessors who chose the "Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele" would often casually inscribe their insights on the walls of their residences during their cultivation.

Although it is not as systematic as the "Heavenly Fire Notes", if one can find profound insights that resonate with oneself and verify them with one another, the efficiency of comprehension will surely be multiplied!

The city of Chaos has countless residences, but which one was left by the predecessors of the "Heavenly Fire" lineage? Which of them bears inscriptions containing profound meaning? Without the guidance of a predecessor, finding the secrets is like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Longyu Wang was clearly there for this reason, and she didn't mind doing Ye Feng a favor.

Rong Jun, Luo Feng, Qian Shui, and the others standing to the side exchanged glances, revealing expressions of anticipation. They knew the value of this guidance; if they could receive it, the points saved would be substantial.

"Ye Feng, since you have chosen the 'Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele,' you can go to cultivation residence number 129034562." Longyu King's voice was clear, "There are the marks of predecessors who comprehended the 'Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele' there."

Her gaze then turned to Luo Feng, a hint of a smile in her eyes. "You must be Luo Feng. Why don't you go take a look at the rooftop of residence number 02111345900? You might find something there."

Luo Feng and Ye Feng were on good terms, and the lineage of the Nine Universe Chaos Stele that he chose was also being secretly watched by the True King of Yan, so she was happy to go with the flow.

"Thank you, King Longyu!" Ye Feng and Luo Feng said solemnly at the same time.

"You may proceed on your own; I will not accompany you." King Longyu waved his hand, his gaze mainly fixed on Ye Feng. "Ye Feng, if you have any urgent matters, you can contact me in the virtual universe; I am always available."

Having said that, he stopped looking at the other geniuses, and with a slight movement, he disappeared from the spot, leaving only faint ripples in the space.

Ye Feng bowed slightly again in the direction where Longyu King had disappeared, then exchanged a glance with Luo Feng before turning and walking deeper into Chaos City.

Ye Feng and Luo Feng stepped out of the city lord's mansion and immediately began searching for a residence as instructed by King Longyu.

Soon, Luo Feng's residence was found.

"Ye Feng, we're really benefiting from your help this time." Luo Feng looked at Ye Feng, his tone sincere.

If it weren't for Ye Feng, why would a king like Long Yu Wang specifically guide him?

"No need to be so polite." Ye Feng shook his head calmly. "I may need your help in the future. I'll go find my place to stay now."

He knew Luo Feng's character well; he was grateful and repaying kindness, and was someone worth befriending.

"Good!" Luo Feng's eyes also blazed with enthusiasm.

After parting ways with Luo Feng, Ye Feng quickly searched the surrounding area.

Before long, an ancient cultivation dwelling came into view, with the address number exactly as Longyu Wang had described.

He placed his palm on the door.

"Drip...drip...drip..."

A soft beep sounded, and the pale white door gradually darkened, eventually turning into dark gray.

"Welcome, Master," a synthesized electronic voice announced.

"Hmm." Ye Feng pushed open the door and entered.

The first floor is a spacious living room with simple yet complete facilities.

"I am the service intelligence, providing everything the owner needs during their stay," the voice said again.

Ye Feng nodded slightly, and without stopping, he went straight up the stairs to the third-floor rooftop.

The rooftop is covered with carvings left by cultivators throughout the ages.

Knife marks, sword imprints, claw marks... a chaotic jumble, making it difficult to discern their depth at first glance. But King Longyu specifically pointed out that this place must be extraordinary.

Looking around, one could see many ascetics sitting cross-legged on the rooftops of nearby residences, immersed in comprehending the laws of nature. Not far away, Luo Feng was also among them, sitting cross-legged on a rooftop.

"This place is the starting point of my thirty years of cultivation in Chaos City."

Without further hesitation, Ye Feng found an empty spot, sat down cross-legged, and began to sort out and process the profound insights he had gained in front of the Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele over the past seven days.

……

While Ye Feng was sorting out his insights, Rong Jun, Bo Lan, Wu Ka, and other geniuses from his cohort began to successively cross the Heavenly Bridge.

Except for Berlan, who passed two levels in one go and almost made it to the third level, causing quite a stir, everyone else failed without exception!

Including Rong Jun and Luo Feng, none of them passed the first level.

Yuxiang Mountain, public area, Qianlong Banquet.

Uka sat ostentatiously in the main seat, inviting Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Qian Shui and his sister, and other geniuses to take their seats.

"Hey! It's one thing that I didn't even make it past the first level of the Sky Bridge, but how come you two failed too, you madman and you savage?!" Uka said with a hint of schadenfreude.

Rong Jun remained silent, simply lowering his head to drink his wine, sip by sip.

Although his failure to reach the first level of the Sky Bridge was not enough to discourage him, it was still somewhat upsetting.
