Chapter 48

"Hen Ren, do you know? You are currently at the Planetary Level 9. Above this are the Star Level and Universe Level, and even higher than those are the Domain Lord and World Lord levels."

"The cultivation realms are divided into four major tiers: Foundation, Artistic Conception, Domain, and World. Beyond that lies the Immortal realm."

"The third tier, the Domain, is one of the requirements for breaking through to the Domain Lord level. A first-fold Domain corresponds to a first-stage Domain Lord, the second-fold to the second stage, and so on. You possess a nine-fold Domain; as long as you have sufficient resources, breaking through to the ninth stage of the Domain Lord level is a certainty."

"And by utilizing an eight or nine-fold Domain to capture the fluctuations of the Laws from the origin of the universe, you can cross the threshold of the origin Laws. This is one of the requirements for breaking through to the World Lord level."

"You have already grasped the threshold of the Laws, and you even possess the threshold of the Law of Space. This means that as long as you have enough resources to allow your Domain to evolve into a World, becoming a World Lord is guaranteed!"

Babata said excitedly.

Luo Feng's realm was too low, so Babata didn't dare to boast too much; after all, if Luo Feng couldn't understand him, he would have to explain it, which would take all the fun out of it.

But Hen Ren was different. Her realm was so high that he could boast to her, and secondly, he could explain the common knowledge of higher realms to her.

Hen Ren nodded continuously. On the Zerg side, she had already learned most of the common knowledge regarding cultivation, so Babata's input could only be considered icing on the cake.

After all, the cultivation experience of the Zerg and the human race had certain differences; cultivation methods suitable for the Zerg were not necessarily entirely suitable for humans.

At the very least, Hen Ren had already modified the Zerg secret manuals more than once or twice.

After Babata boasted to Hen Ren for a while about how powerful Hu Yanbo was, and then, still feeling unsatisfied, gave some cultivation resources and secret manuals to Hen Ren, Babata and Luo Feng took their leave.

After Hen Ren put these resources away, she returned to the Gravity Chamber to continue her cultivation and research...

Thor and Xu Ai also possessed Domains; this was what Hen Ren had told Babata.

When Babata found out, he was shocked. If only Hong had grasped a Domain, Babata could have said that Earth had incredible luck.

But with the addition of Hen Ren, who had grasped a Domain and had even crossed the threshold of one Lower Law and one Higher Law, Babata could no longer describe it as just good luck.

He could only use an old Huaxia saying: "Earth is truly a land of auspicious geomancy..."

As it turned out, besides Hen Ren and Hong, there were now Thor and Xu Ai as well?

Could this still be attributed to geomancy?

Well, of course it could...

In fact, Babata even hoped for more! He kept a close eye on Luo Feng, waiting to see when he would grasp a Domain.

Luo Feng: ...

Regarding his attitude toward Hong, Thor, and Xu Ai, Babata had only one stance!

In any case, Babata didn't care; he would just take them as registered disciples. Either way, he was the one profiting!

And so, Hong and Thor were taken in by Babata on behalf of Hu Yanbo, becoming Hu Yanbo's registered disciples.

With this connection, Babata gave Hong and Thor some resources.

As for Xu Ai, she didn't need to take a master, as she was already Hen Ren's disciple. Therefore, she was considered a member of Black Rock Star, and Babata gave her resources directly.

This was called casting a wide net; as long as one of them achieved the Immortal realm, Black Rock Star would not decline!

Besides this, under Hen Ren's reminder, Babata took Luo Feng on a trip to the No. 12 Ancient Civilization ruin, where they salvaged a spaceship that the system had deemed scrapped.

Compared to the original timeline, the plot on Earth had completely veered off course.

Hong and Thor were significantly stronger than they were at the same point in the original story, but Luo Feng, while also stronger, wasn't ahead by much...

This led Luo Feng to start training diligently after obtaining the spaceship.

Not to mention Hen Ren; as Hu Yanbo's direct disciple, Babata couldn't stand the thought of him being weaker than the two registered disciples, Hong and Thor.

Coupled with the fact that Luo Feng himself had a proud and competitive spirit, he began to chase after them with all his might!

Xu Ai was delighted by this!

Because Luo Feng no longer had time to disturb the peaceful life she shared with her sister!

"Sister Xin, hurry into the Gravity Chamber!"

Liu Ting snatched Xu Xin from Xu Ai's arms, pulled her into the Gravity Chamber, with Janet following closely behind, and Jiang Fang trailing after them...

"Uh..."

Xu Ai was left speechless, wanting to cry but having no tears...

Did this count as lifting a rock only to drop it on her own feet?

"Create an external magical organ to serve as an Origin Core and an Internal World..."

It sounded simple, but Hen Ren had experimented many times without success.

"Earth's materials cannot support me in achieving this goal; I must change my line of thinking."

"If I combine the micro-planet of a Spirit Reader with the micro-planet of a Genetic Warrior, could it become something similar to an Origin Core?"

After all, the distinction between spirit power and genetic energy only existed in the early stages; in the later stages, they were treated as one and the same.

This might be related to the change in Luo Feng's life essence; after all, his soul had possessed the Golden Horned Beast, and his true body was an Origin Core.

Let's take it one step at a time and get the Origin Core created first!

With this new line of thinking, Hen Ren immediately began experiments within the Trial Space.

"Sister Yu, I've missed you so much!"

"I've missed you too."

Ye Yu smiled helplessly as she caught Xu Ai, who had lunged at her.

Xu Ai hugged Ye Yu tightly, rubbing her face against her chest, feeling completely satisfied!

The same went for Qin Yi and Gu Zizhen; Xu Ai wrapped her arms around their slender waists, feeling very content.

Compared to them, Liu Qingling, Yu Fei, and Jun Xia looked rather helpless, as Xu Ai had only given them a brief hug.

There was no helping it; Xu Ai preferred the bigger ones!

This left Liu Qingling and the others feeling quite depressed...

Liu Ting was the same, almost making Liu Qingling furious, but fortunately, Xu Xin and the others treated everyone equally, leaving Liu Qingling feeling quite satisfied as she hugged them...

Especially Jiang Fang, who was famous in the original story for her great figure; when Liu Qingling held her slender waist, her hands almost slipped downward...

Xu Xin had already reached the Planetary Level, and Liu Ting and Janet had also reached the physical fitness of the War God Level, so they had all graduated early.

They were a bit reluctant to leave Jiang Fang, after all, Jiang Fang was... ahem... Jiang Fang had gotten along very well with them...

Therefore, Xu Ai invested some resources to raise Jiang Fang's strength to the Planetary Level, then had her resign as an instructor at the training camp and return to Jiangnan Base City.

Yes, that's right, Jiang Fang's ancestral home was also in Jiangnan Base City!

The first thing to do upon returning to Jiangnan Base City was, naturally, to call her Harem Squad—bah! I mean, the Willow Leaf Squad—over for a gathering!

Although there were still monsters in the ocean, they no longer posed a threat to humanity.

After all, the living space in the deep sea was simply too vast; they wouldn't be foolish enough to fight humans for useless territory.

As for the monsters on land, after the great purge, only a few remained, and none were particularly strong, so those at the Planetary Level and War God Level no longer took action.

Many martial artist squads didn't go out to hunt monsters much anymore; those monsters were essentially being left to roam free...

Martial artists were working hard to transition; their status would likely be lower than in the Base City era, after all, monsters were no longer a threat, but the status of martial artists certainly wouldn't be too low.

Although Xu Ai wasn't entirely sure how things would turn out, there was no need to worry; this decline in the status of martial artists was only temporary.

Once Earth entered the cosmic era, that would be even more true.

The Willow Leaf Squad was also idle now, no longer going out to hunt.

More than a year had passed since the battle for City 0551, and during this time, the changes in the Willow Leaf Squad had been significant.

The biggest change was in their strength; Liu Qingling and Ye Yu had already broken through to the War God Level.

The others had also seen considerable growth, the most exaggerated of whom was Gu Zizhen, who had actually overtaken and caught up to Qin Yi and the others!
