Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 140 Life-or-Death Adventure

"Teacher, is there really no other way?" Yang Wu pressed.

"Yes!" Seeing his disciple's unwavering resolve, Marquis Jin Guang sighed and finally said helplessly, "If you want to accelerate your comprehension of the laws, there is only one path you can take now!"

"Please give me your guidance, teacher!" Yang Wu asked respectfully, his voice firm.

Seeing the resolute look on Yang Wu's face, Jin Guanghou seemed to see himself and his many companions from millions of years ago.

Over the millions of years, only a few of the original group of companions who joined the Qianwu Secret Realm have survived, and for now, he is the only one who has broken through to immortality.

Then, Marquis Jin Guang slowly said, "Cultivating through life and death can greatly increase your speed of comprehension!"

"Between life and death lies immense terror!"

"Between life and death, there lies boundless motivation!"

"It's like a conditioned reflex; when we face a life-threatening crisis, every cell in our body struggles, and evolution accelerates."

"The terror of life and death can bring our soul and body to a peak state that we cannot reach under normal circumstances. In this state, it is easier for people to comprehend, evolve, and improve their strength."

"This is a life reflex! When faced with death, life will put out its most intense struggle! We may not be able to break through this barrier even after countless hours of arduous practice, but perhaps we will break through after encountering a life-threatening crisis!"

After hearing what Jin Guanghou said, Yang Wu suddenly understood.

Yes, Luo Feng and his two companions are not lacking in resources, but they still went to take the trainee mercenary assessment mission several months ago.

They had invited Yang Wu at the time, but Yang Wu was rapidly improving under the guidance of Jin Guanghou and naturally didn't have time to join them.

Moreover, with Yang Wu's physical attributes at the ninth level of the Star-level and his eighth-level Domain Realm, the trainee mercenary assessment mission posed no difficulty for him, so it naturally did not arouse his interest.

But if it really involved a life-or-death adventure, Yang Wu was somewhat tempted.

Because the path to becoming a strong person is never smooth sailing. Even if Yang Wu possesses a heaven-defying treasure like the Time Simulator, he wouldn't dare say that he can definitely reach the peak.

The current simulations are held once every three years. Once Yang Wu breaks through to the cosmic level or the domain lord level, it might become once every few decades or even centuries.

Who knows what might happen during such a long time interval?

Moreover, even Luo Feng, who possesses extraordinary talent, opportunities, and luck, has faced life-or-death crises several times. How could Yang Wu possibly back down?

"This disciple intends to take a life-or-death risk, please help me, Master!" Yang Wu pleaded with Jin Guanghou.

Given Yang Wu's current strength, it would be difficult for him to find a suitable place for adventure, so he had no choice but to ask Marquis Jin Guang for help.

"Yang Wu, are you really sure?" Marquis Jin Guang asked seriously.

If he could, he really wouldn't want his excellent disciple Yang Wu to start such a life-or-death adventure so early.

Jin Guanghou felt that they could wait until Yang Wu was stronger before embarking on this life-or-death adventure.

After all, Yang Wu's progress is not slow now, and he doesn't need the terror of life and death to stimulate him.

Yang Wu nodded heavily.

"I want to go on a life-or-death adventure too!" Latte suddenly said from the side.

"Nonsense!" Jin Guanghou suddenly looked at Latte and shouted angrily.

If Jin Guanghou felt some regret that Yang Wu was going on a life-or-death adventure, then Latte's announcement that he was going on the same adventure was enough to enrage him.

Latte was the only son of Marquis Jin Guang, and now that he had become immortal, it was even more difficult for him to have offspring.

Therefore, unless Latte faces the danger of reaching the end of his life in the future, he will never allow the other party to take any life-or-death risks!

As for now, Latte is not even 30,000 years old, which is still a long way from the million-year lifespan of a Domain Lord!

However, it was not appropriate for Jin Guanghou to directly refuse the idea of ​​latte.

After a moment's consideration, Jin Guanghou continued, "Life-or-death adventures are far from safe. Even the relatively simple cosmic mercenary assessment missions have an alarmingly high mortality rate. Not to mention the life-or-death battles in the Giant Axe Arena, and the even more brutal extraterrestrial battlefields, where the mortality rate can reach over ninety percent. With your current strength, Na Tie, participating in such an adventure would likely result in your immediate demise!"

This wasn't Jin Guanghou threatening Latte. Those who reach the peak of the Domain Lord realm, even those with a modicum of talent, are likely capable of comprehending a trace of the laws. With Latte's current strength, even with the treasures Jin Guanghou had prepared, he's truly no match.

Hearing such a terrifying death rate, Latte's face paled slightly, and he quickly said, "Life-or-death adventures are really this terrifying? Junior brother, why don't you not go? With your amazing comprehension, why take such a risk?"

When Latte was born, Jin Guanghou was already an extremely powerful realm lord. Not long after, Jin Guanghou broke through and became an immortal.

As the son of an immortal god of the Marquis level, Latte has a good personality. How could he possibly encounter danger in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom?

So when he heard about the incredibly high mortality rate of life-or-death adventures, he immediately backed down.

After all, for him, being able to become a realm lord and live for a thousand epochs under his father's protection would be enough.

"Senior brother, thank you for your concern. However..." Yang Wu shook his head and declined, "I still think I'll give it a try!"

Yang Wu then respectfully said to Jin Guanghou again, "Please help me, Master!"

Seeing that Yang Wu had made up his mind, Marquis Jin Guang naturally would not refuse again.

After all, it would be a good thing if Yang Wu could comprehend the laws as soon as possible.

"With your current strength, Yang Wu, the trainee mercenary assessment of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance and the life-or-death duel in the Giant Axe Arena are no challenge for you. To meet the requirements for a life-or-death adventure, you'd need to fight against a cosmic-level powerhouse or a large number of eternal-level ninth-tier powerhouses!"

Marquis Jin Guang said earnestly, "A cosmic-level expert is already considered a powerful figure, and those whose strength is roughly equal to yours are few and far between. There are even fewer willing to fight you to the death. As for the 'constant-level,' they are too few to be of any use to you. Therefore, you will return to your territory with me, and I will make the arrangements for you!"

"Father!" Latte suddenly called out.

"Hmm?" Jin Guanghou looked at Latte.

Latte quickly asked, "Father, would having a large number of ninth-tier Hengxing items help Junior Brother Yang Wu?"

"Excellent!" Marquis Jin Guang nodded and said, "At least 100,000 are needed, and it will be a life-or-death battle!"

"Haha!" Latte laughed, "What a coincidence!"

"Father, just a few days ago, the world lord of the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region, Anmunz, contacted me, saying that they had discovered a world within a world left behind by a world lord in a trainee mercenary assessment world. However, due to the obstruction of an inspector from the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, they could only send a large number of eternal star level nine rank into the world within a world to seize treasures."

"The major forces in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region sent a total of nearly two million ninth-level Constant Star troops into it. At that time, Anmonz even wanted to ask me to send some people in as well, but I had no time to care about such things."

"Ammonz?" Marquis Jin Guang suddenly asked, "I vaguely remember this person. Is he the realm lord who ceded Rhine Star to you back then?"

"That's him!" Latte said with a smile. "This guy is quite interesting. Later, I offered him money, but he refused to accept it. Father, do you think the Star-level army within that Realm of Realms can help Junior Brother Yang Wu break through?"

"But, isn't two million too much?" Latte hesitated again.

"Not many!" Marquis Jin Guang looked at Yang Wu and said, "The various forces in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region are not a united front. These two million troops will definitely fight among themselves. Yang Wu, do you dare to go?"

"This disciple is willing to go!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.

It's truly a twist of fate. Yang Wu never expected that, after all these twists and turns, he would end up going to the Thunder World.
