Breakthrough, Stellar Level

When Luo Feng entered the Wilderness Area, Wang Cheng was undergoing an important transformation in Base City No. 003.

He sat cross-legged on the roof of an Abandoned Building, quietly sensing his mental and physical state for a moment.

"Having over a thousand clones train at once has been great for tempering my will. And there's no bottleneck for this body to break through to Stellar level. I'm already at the limit of Planet level Ninth Order. It's time to break through!" Wang Cheng thought. Then, with a thought, he acted.

In an instant, over nine hundred clones training in a Residential Building not far from Wang Cheng vanished at once.

A huge amount of energy returned to him. Wang Cheng immediately felt his body swelling with energy, along with the faint presence of a threshold deep within him.

"Break through!" Wang Cheng roared inwardly. In an instant, a restriction inside him shattered, and the energy he had accumulated for so long began to wildly transform his body.

His muscles, bones, and blood—all of him grew stronger at a frantic pace.

Wang Cheng's aura involuntarily burst forth. Nearly every monster in Base City No. 003 instinctively cowered, and every Warrior's face changed. The aura that had suddenly erupted filled them with fear from the depths of their hearts.

They were Warriors. Even fighting the most terrifying monsters or facing death hadn't made them this afraid. Yet under the crushing pressure of this aura, they felt an instinctive terror welling up from within.

"What happened over there?" A man in a gray combat suit, hiding beneath some rubble, couldn't help swallowing.

"Could a Lord-level monster have broken through to King-level?" his companion suggested.

"I'd only ever heard stories about King-level monsters. I never imagined they'd be this terrifying!" The man licked his lips. He clearly thought his companion was probably right.

For ordinary Warriors like them, a Lord-level monster breaking through to King-level was already the limit of their imagination! Stellar level? What was that?

"This isn't something we can handle. Report it!" his companion said.

"Let's hope the satellite phone still works!"

"."

Breaking through to Stellar level was far less troublesome than Wang Cheng had imagined. Once he realized he'd caused quite a commotion, he got up and quickly left City No. 003.

At Planet level first order, Wang Cheng could fly at nearly ten kilometers per second with the help of his Lightning Domain. Now, even without it, he could fly several times faster.

That was the advantage of having a strong physical foundation. A First-order Stellar level cultivator with a Ten Times Gene Level was many times stronger in raw power than someone at Planet level first order. Naturally, his flying speed easily surpassed what it had been before.

"Wait, I shouldn't be at Ten Times Gene Level anymore!"

Feeling the warm currents continuously flowing through his body, Wang Cheng summoned the Virtual Screen for the Opportunity Grasping System with a thought.

Name: Wang Cheng

Age: 25

Evolution Level: First-order Stellar level (Twelve Times Gene)

Opportunity Points: 57

Treasure: None

Manual: Nine Heavens Thunder Blade

Secret Realm: None

"Twelve Times Gene Level!" Seeing the figure, Wang Cheng murmured, as expected.

When he'd first consumed the Primal Embryo, Wang Cheng had sensed that his body was still being transformed, and that his Gene level might continue to rise. But nothing had changed in the two months since, so he'd gradually put the matter out of his mind.

He hadn't expected that breaking through to Stellar level would make the sensation of his body transforming countless times stronger.

Sure enough, Wang Cheng's Gene level increased by another twofold in just a short while. More importantly, the transformation was far from over.

"I wonder how high my Gene level will climb in the end!" Wang Cheng mused. By now, he'd already flown several hundred li away from City No. 003 at top speed.

"Where am I?"

Looking down at the city below, Wang Cheng quickly recognized its identifying landmarks with his astonishing eyesight.

"So this is City No. 016!" Wang Cheng thought, then descended.

City No. 016 was Nanjing City from before the Great Nirvana. Though it wasn't as dangerous as City No. 003, it still had plenty of monsters. Wang Cheng could train anywhere, so since he'd happened to fly here, he decided to stay for a couple of days.

He found a Residential Building much like the one he'd used in City No. 003. After remodeling it, he moved in. But Wang Cheng didn't rush to train. The residual power of the Primal Embryo was still transforming his body, and he wanted to see how many times his Gene level would increase.

The transformation finally began to slow the next day.

"It's reached Thirty Times!" Wang Cheng blinked. He was sure he'd read it right.

"My Gene level tripled all at once. No wonder I feel so much stronger after just one day!" Wang Cheng marveled inwardly. They were both First-order Stellar level, but Wang Cheng at Thirty Times Gene Level could practically kill his version at Ten Times Gene Level instantly.

"Even if I do nothing now, I won't need to worry about whether I can survive when the Kinkaku Giant Beast appears!" Wang Cheng marveled inwardly. In less than two months since obtaining the Opportunity Grasping System, he'd grown this strong. It was almost unimaginable.

"I've got 58 Opportunity Points now. Should I try grasping an opportunity again?" Seeing his current balance, Wang Cheng couldn't help feeling tempted.

He gained one Opportunity Point per Earth day. He'd had the Opportunity Grasping System for nearly two months and now had 58 Opportunity Points. What's more, resisting the urge to use the system for so long had been difficult. Once the thought crossed Wang Cheng's mind, he couldn't get rid of it.

"Since the system appeared, I've only used it twice. It's about time I tried again!" Wang Cheng made up his mind.

"But how many Opportunity Points should I use?" he wondered.

The more Opportunity Points he used to grasp an opportunity, the wider the search range. Grasping an opportunity across the entire Milky Way Galaxy required 9 Opportunity Points.

So Wang Cheng felt that he should either spend 1 Opportunity Point or more than 9 each time.

One Opportunity Point could search for opportunities on Earth. Earth might seem weak, but it still held plenty of secrets. Wang Cheng had a chance of finding a valuable treasure there.

Beyond Earth, the entire Milky Way Galaxy was probably rather ordinary. Especially with Huyan Bo having sealed off many places in the galaxy using a Space Secret Method, Wang Cheng didn't think he'd find anything worthwhile there.

"I'll try using 15 points this time!"

Wang Cheng made up his mind and immediately acted on it.

In an instant, the Opportunity Points displayed on the Virtual Screen before him dropped from 58 to 43, and an invisible force spread outward.

The force swept past the Solar System, crossed the Milky Way Galaxy, and continued expanding countless times farther, until it finally stopped at a silver-gray spacecraft traveling through the Dark Universe.

Without any of the lives aboard noticing, the spacecraft's most precious treasure silently disappeared.

At the same time, the Virtual Screen before Wang Cheng changed.

[15 Opportunity Points consumed. Opportunity grasping successful!]

[Opportunity category: Treasure]

[Opportunity name: Domain Lord level bloodline potion]

[How to use: Oral consumption]

[Effect: The user's bloodline will be completely transformed, granting them the bloodline of a Domain Lord level life-form]

"Domain Lord level bloodline potion!"

Wang Cheng murmured to himself. At the same time, he saw a completely sealed Metal Box appear in the space connected to his consciousness.

Though the Metal Box was still unopened, Wang Cheng could sense a deep-purple potion resting quietly inside.

"What an incredible treasure!" Information about it quickly surfaced in Wang Cheng's mind.

The Original Universe was vast beyond imagination. Swallowed Star was only a book, after all, and couldn't possibly cover every treasure. But this Domain Lord level bloodline potion had appeared in the story, so Wang Cheng knew a little about it.

The potion was extremely precious—valuable enough that one dose could probably buy an entire star system like the Milky Way Galaxy!

That was because a single dose of Domain Lord level bloodline potion was practically equivalent to a Domain Lord level life-form!

The bloodline of anyone who took it would be transformed into a Domain Lord level bloodline. And what that meant was that they would naturally become a Domain Lord upon reaching adulthood!

After reaching adulthood, Earthlings weren't even normally at the Apprentice level. Someone who took this potion, however, could naturally grow to Domain Lord level. That showed just how precious it was!

Of course, if an adult Earthling took the potion, he wouldn't immediately become a Domain Lord.

Earthlings reaching adulthood didn't mean that other humans had reached adulthood. A life-form with a Domain Lord level bloodline probably needed to live for eighty or a hundred thousand years before it was considered an adult!

"Too bad it's no use to me!" Wang Cheng shook his head.

The treasure was indeed excellent, but he had no use for it. His Primal Body already ensured he'd face no bottlenecks as he evolved, and he could very well continue evolving all the way to Realm Lord peak without any.

Under those circumstances, why would he use a Domain Lord level bloodline potion?

"It's a fine treasure, but I'll have to set it aside for now!"

Wang Cheng had no intention of taking the Metal Box out of his Consciousness Space yet. He couldn't use the potion for the time being, and there was no one on Earth worth giving it to for free.

As for trading it, that went without saying. No one on Earth could afford the thing!

"Even if I can't use it, this Domain Lord level bloodline potion is a fine start. Let's keep going!" Wang Cheng thought, then acted with another thought.

The Opportunity Points on the Virtual Screen before him dropped by 20, from 43 to 23.

In an instant, the invisible force spread outward again.

A moment later—

[20 Opportunity Points consumed. Opportunity grasping successful!]

[Opportunity category: Treasure]

[Opportunity name: Large World Ring]

[How to use: Consciousness Control]

[Effect: The ring contains an Independent World, which may also hold other treasures]

"A World Ring."

Wang Cheng watched the information flash across the Virtual Screen, momentarily stunned. Then, with a thought, a silver ring appeared in his hand.

"So this is a World Ring?" His consciousness entered it, and he saw an immense plain.

But that was all. Wang Cheng's consciousness was nowhere near strong enough to reach the boundary of the entire world at once.

As far as Wang Cheng knew, a Large World Ring usually referred to a ring whose inner world was a million kilometers long, wide, and high!

What did that mean?

Earth's greatest diameter was only a little over ten thousand kilometers!

Its length, width, and height were each a hundred times greater, and its volume a million times greater! In other words, if one were to cram them in, a million Earths could fit inside this ring.

"This World Ring is countless times more valuable than that Domain Lord level bloodline potion—and there might be other treasures its former owner stored inside." Wang Cheng's eyes lit up. His luck today was truly unbelievable. He'd found two fairly impressive treasures in a row, and the World Ring in particular was exceptionally satisfying.
