Inside a quiet room of a spaceship buried ten thousand meters beneath the earth.
Jiang Luo was submerged in a C-Grade Nutrient Pod, where streams of vital energy continuously permeated his body, driving the improvement and evolution of his cells and the growth of his spiritual consciousness.
In just under half a month, his genetic origin power had risen from the first rank of the Planetary level to the ninth rank.
His spiritual consciousness had also increased from the second rank to the eighth.
In another half a day, both his genetic origin power and spiritual consciousness would reach the limit of the ninth rank of the Planetary level.
He already possessed a domain; theoretically, relying on this C-Grade Nutrient Pod would be enough to break through to the Stellar level in one go.
However, Wu He would not allow him to break through to the Stellar level.
Jiang Luo himself had no such plans for the time being either.
Although he possessed a dual domain, having a domain at the Planetary level was a completely different concept from having one at the Stellar level.
At this stage, breaking through to the Stellar level would, for him, be a form of "devaluing himself."
The power of faith gathering here is increasing more and more.
Jiang Luo happily "watched" as another wisp of white wish power condensed within the Wordless Seal.
In just these ten-plus days, he had gained nearly 5,000 strands of new wish power.
It seemed the news of him breaking through to become a Martial Saint Grandmaster had already spread.
The cumulative total of wish power had already exceeded 50,000 points.
However, compared to the 900,000 points of wish power accumulated over the previous 5,000 years, it was still far off.
At this rate, it would take less than 10 years to accumulate 1 million points of wish power, enough to manifest the fifth layer of the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map.
The higher the level of the divine ability technique, the more wish power it required.
The first four layers of the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map combined had only consumed 600,000 points of wish power, while the fifth layer alone required at least a million.
Too slow. Jiang Luo shook his head inwardly.
He wanted more than just the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map.
Once my spiritual consciousness is fully upgraded, I will find a way to purchase a life planet...
Suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded.
The silver-haired Wu He rushed in, his expression anxious: "Get out quickly! The reconnaissance instruments I placed in space have detected the trail of an alien spaceship; it is about to arrive at Luo Planet."
Jiang Luo was startled. He immediately pushed open the hatch of the nutrient pod, put on his battle suit, and followed Wu He out of the ship.
Afterward, Wu He waved his hand, storing the spaceship into his spatial ring, while he himself entered the spatial bracelet on Jiang Luo's wrist.
Just as Jiang Luo rushed out of the desert, he saw three streaks of light falling into the atmosphere.
Above Luo Capital.
Three massive black spaceships hovered beneath the clouds, casting terrifying shadows.
"Aliens are here?"
"My God!"
"Help!!"
The entire city was instantly plunged into chaos.
The Alliance Speaker looked anxious: "Have you still not found Pavilion Master Jiang? Damn it, what are the air forces waiting for? Attack immediately!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Hundreds of electromagnetic cannons bombarded the three spaceships, but they could not cause a shred of damage.
Hundreds of fighter jets launched futile attacks, but they yielded no results either.
Immediately afterward, those hundreds of fighter jets seemed to lose control and crashed one after another.
"Hmph, they can't even block my wide-range spiritual shock..." A seductive woman at the Stellar level giggled.
Another Stellar-level individual reminded her: "Be careful. If you want to kill, kill those insignificant ants. Don't kill too many Apprentice-level ones; they are all slaves. No matter how cheap, they are still our assets."
The golden-haired leader, Figo, said disdainfully: "There isn't even a Planetary-level one. It seems the race on this life planet is at most a ninth-tier bloodline, or perhaps even a tenth-tier.
"However, since they practice genetic origin power, someone must have visited this planet before. Later, you all go and search the planet to see if there are any clues.
"Although the probability is low, if it really is a spaceship from the Flint Star World, then... eh?"
Figo turned his head; his communication watch had detected an aura approaching at high speed.
"There really is a Planetary-level one? And it seems to be at the ninth rank of the Planetary level?"
The detection instruments issued by the company were highly accurate and could precisely detect strength from the Apprentice level to the Universe level.
Once one reached the Domain Lord level, the core was a life nucleus (singularity), and if the aura was completely retracted, it would be difficult to detect.
But soon, that ninth-rank Planetary-level aura stopped outside Luo Capital.
The corners of Figo's mouth curled into a smile: "This little mouse is quite cautious. Don't worry about him for now. This city should be their capital; let's go and intimidate them first.
"To subdue these natives, we must kill a few. While we're at it, collect their database to see what mineral resources this planet has."
One thousand kilometers away, Jiang Luo hovered in mid-air, watching from afar as plumes of thick smoke rose from Luo Capital.
As the capital of Luo Planet, Luo Capital had a population of nearly one hundred million; he had no idea how many people had just died.
Strictly speaking, he did not even know how many people on this planet were his descendants.
"Calm down!" Wu He's voice sounded grave from within the bracelet. "You are no match for them. This squad has twenty-six members in total, all of them at the Stellar level. Most are at the seventh or eighth rank, and there are even a few at the ninth rank."
Jiang Luo frowned slightly.
Although he had advanced to the ninth rank of the Planetary level and possessed a dual domain of water and fire, he might be able to defeat a Stellar-level opponent of the fourth or fifth rank who lacked a domain, but anything higher was impossible.
That was not even accounting for the enemy's spacecraft and weaponry.
"Can you not deal with them?"
Wu He sighed. "Although my spacecraft is damaged and has yet to be fully repaired, the weapon systems it carries are capable of handling them.
"However, I cannot intervene. Once a standard-issue spacecraft from the Flint Star World appears, my identity will be exposed.
"This squad belongs to the Obsidian Company; they have been searching for the token that can open the World within a World of the Flint Star World, and I would rather die than let the Obsidian Company succeed."
Jiang Luo shook his head inwardly. Although he had gained Wu He's approval, Wu He had not acknowledged him as his master.
Furthermore, in name, he was still only a registered disciple of the Flint Star Sector Lord.
If he could not obtain Wu He's consent, he had no way to utilize the spacecraft of the Flint Star World.
"It seems I have no choice but to act myself. Fortunately, in order to protect myself, I manifested this move..."
Jiang Luo assumed a posture with his head tilted back and arms outstretched, as if he were about to embrace the sun:
"All things in the world, please share a portion of your vital energy with me; Luo Planet is in danger..."
Wu He, inside the bracelet, looked stunned. "What are you doing? You are no match for them! There is an escape pod in the spacecraft made of Barium Smelt Alloy that can isolate origin energy signatures. As long as you sink into the deep sea, they will absolutely—"
Wu He's words came to an abrupt halt.
Even though he was inside the bracelet, he could still use the smart bracelet to scan the outside world.
At this moment, a pure white, dazzling sphere had appeared at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, and it was expanding rapidly.
Crucially, there was not a single ripple of energy or trace of origin energy to be detected.
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.
"That is..." Wu He was dumbfounded. "What is that?!"
