Chapter 113: Breaking Through to the Universe Level

Within the sea of consciousness of Luo Yuan, there stood a colossal tower that seemed to encompass the entire void. Inside this tower, nine incomparably scorching fireballs were orbiting each other along strange trajectories, forming a unique celestial structure.

This was the very manifestation of Luo Yuan’s soul!

As his consciousness ceased its deliberate suppression, the pure energy of the universe was frantically absorbed. The nine fireballs, which had already reached their limit, began to vibrate and swell rapidly in volume as they took in the energy.

"Rumble..."

In an instant, the cosmic energy above the entire planet of Mars was greedily devoured, forming a terrifying energy vortex. With such astonishing energy, the nine miniature stars expanded rapidly, growing tenfold in size within a few short moments. All nine fireballs were trembling, and in that split second, the largest of the miniature stars reached its absolute limit!

"Bang!"

The largest miniature star exploded violently!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The other eight miniature stars exploded in quick succession. Having exceeded their limits, they all burst simultaneously, transforming into countless stellar fragments and even creating vast clouds of interstellar dust. After a long while, everything returned to calm.

In the sea of consciousness, the vast amount of nebulae, star clusters, and dust produced by the great explosion—along with a multitude of tiny stars—formed a massive spiral galaxy. At the very core of this immense spiral galaxy, tiny stars were most abundant, numbering in the millions. Simultaneously, the entire spiral galaxy possessed eight spiral arms.

At the densest core of this spiral galaxy lay a tiny, dark region. That was the first "black hole" of the entire system. This minuscule black hole was slowly consuming the surrounding stars and dust, while at the same time, in a place beyond reach, it generated wisps of pure power.

"Sizzle..."

Mist-like telepathic power appeared to emerge from thin air, surrounding the giant vortex and casting a halo over the entire galaxy. The strange, misty power forming this halo was the reliance of a Universe-level spirit reader—telepathic force!

Incomparably pure telepathic force!

Luo Yuan had officially stepped into the ranks of Universe-level spirit readers!

Next was the breakthrough for his Universe-level genetic martial arts. The process was similar to that of the spirit reader, also forming a spiral galaxy with a tiny black hole. However, in addition to his original eight dantians of different attributes, Luo Yuan had added two more, representing the attributes of time and space. Each of these ten dantians now contained a spiral galaxy.

From this moment on, Luo Yuan possessed origin energy of ten attributes. He had also exhausted nearly all the attribute fragments he had collected; after all, the energy required for his breakthrough was more than ten times that of an ordinary Universe-level individual.

Deep beneath the desolate surface of Mars, inside his spacecraft, Luo Feng’s face was filled with excitement as he quickly drilled toward the depths: "Breaking through to the Universe level—this is where the true journey among the ranks of the powerful begins!"

He had fully mastered the "Soul Seal" of the Moyun Star lineage. With a single thought, he could condense ten thousand sword soul seals, capable of extinguishing the consciousness of anyone whose soul was weaker than his, or instantly enslaving them to ensure their absolute loyalty.

Luo Yuan had also cultivated many secret techniques of the ten attributes. He had made significant progress, especially in space-based techniques; his "Absolute Space" had reached the second level, "Myriad Transformations," equivalent to the highest level of the "Ten Thousand Lineage Flow." He was now only one step away from the final level: "Teleportation."

With the supply of a massive amount of rare metals, Luo Yuan had also mastered the first level of "True Body of Heaven and Earth." Bolstered by his strengthening skills, all of Luo Yuan's attributes had been further enhanced, and his other abilities had also been elevated to a very high level.

...

A month later, Luo Yuan returned to Earth. He entered the Virtual Universe because important guests were seeking him out. It was said to be a special delegation sent by the Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, reportedly carrying orders issued by the Emperor himself. The leader of the delegation was a Sector Lord, said to hold an extremely high status. Furthermore, the delegation included the Emperor of the Silverblue Empire, a "Primary Civilization Country of the Universe."

Of course, besides Luo Yuan, they were also there to see Luo Feng.

In the reception hall of Luo Yuan’s ancient-style palace, there were eleven people in total. Thor and Hong were sitting at the long dining table alongside nine strangers.

"Third Brother, Fourth Brother."

Thor and Hong stood up immediately. The other nine turned to look, and eight of them rose to their feet on the spot. Only the silver-haired old man in the center remained seated, carefully observing Luo Yuan and Luo Feng with a smile. "Greetings. I am Bute Ashka, representing the Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire."

"Greetings, Lord Bute Ashka," Luo Yuan and Luo Feng said, bowing respectfully.

Having been to the Ganwu Auction and seen so many Sector Lords, the two of them could tell at a glance that this silver-haired elder was indeed a Sector Lord!

"Please, be seated," the silver-haired elder said with a smile.

Luo Yuan and Luo Feng walked over and sat down next to Hong and Thor.

"I have come for two reasons. First, I really wanted to see the remarkable geniuses of our Black Dragon Mountain Empire," the silver-haired elder, whose hair and beard were white, appeared very kind, making one feel naturally drawn to him. "Second, because of His Majesty. His Majesty is very concerned about you two, attaches great importance to you, and wishes to reward you handsomely!"

Luo Yuan smiled awkwardly; he doubted the Emperor knew he had a conflict with his Ninth Prince.

"Lord Bute Ashka, actually, I haven't done much. I just did what I had to do," Luo Yuan said quickly.

"No!" The silver-haired elder shook his head. "Luo Yuan, you have brought immense honor to our Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Countless citizens of the empire are proud because of you! You have rendered a great service, and so has Luo Feng."

"Originally, the Emperor intended to grant you your rewards," the elder said, looking at the two. "However, I proposed that we hold off for now."

Luo Yuan didn't mind, but Luo Feng became serious.

"I proposed to the Emperor... that if you can break into the top 1,000 of the Ganwu Universe Sector, you shall be granted a galaxy!" the elder announced.

"Granted a galaxy?" Luo Feng, Hong, and Thor were all stunned, while Luo Yuan simply smiled.

"Luo Yuan, as far as I know, your first planetary territory was Earth, and you are currently ranked first in the Sixth Sector, which has already secured you a final spot. Therefore, the Emperor has decided to grant you the Milky Way, which is under the jurisdiction of the Silverblue Empire!" The elder watched Luo Yuan’s expression closely.

Luo Yuan thanked him with a smile, showing no false modesty, which made the elder stroke his beard in satisfaction. In his eyes, Luo Yuan was a straightforward man.

Luo Feng and the others were dumbfounded.

"Rest assured, this is the Emperor of the Silverblue Empire, 'Iwei.' This matter has been approved by the royal family of the Silverblue Empire." The elder looked toward a handsome man in white not far away. The man smiled and nodded at them: "I have long wanted to meet Mr. Luo Yuan. If Mr. Luo Yuan is willing to manage the Milky Way, it is an honor for our Silverblue Empire."

"Of course, Luo Feng, if you can also break into the top 1,000 of the Ganwu Universe Sector, then the Magellanic Galaxy next to the Milky Way shall be yours!" the elder added, turning to Luo Feng.

"I will do my best," Luo Feng nodded.
