Settling In

The Reincarnation Battle has begun and will last for three years. Xu Qing and Luo Feng both began to immerse themselves in their respective cultivation.

Not only them, but also those geniuses who have already secured their spots will seize the time to cultivate and improve themselves, preparing for the upcoming Peak Battle geniuses between the Universe Country.

When that time comes, the clash of top geniuses from over a thousand Universe Country will undoubtedly be incredibly intense.

Everyone wants to be in the top 1,000, but it's destined that only the most outstanding individuals can achieve it.

Time passed, and two years later.

On Pluto, Xu Qing sat cross-legged in mid-air, with cosmic energy surging in the air and continuously flowing into his body.

Soon, a huge energy vortex formed, obscuring the sky above.

Within Xu Qing's body, the colorful Origin Core glowed, a vast surge of genetic Origin Energy coursed through it, and the nine surrounding stars trembled, their volume continuously expanding.

Boom!

Finally, the stars, having expanded to their limit, exploded, and all nine stars broke apart, giving rise to a galaxy.

At the same time, within Xu Qing's sea of consciousness, around the core of his mental power, eight divine beasts guarded the eight directions, drawing upon the power of the Universe Origin Law to form a colorful three-tiered pagoda.

Outside the colorful pagoda, nine stars are rotating.

At this moment, the nine stars are also expanding.

Boom!

Soon, the nine surrounding stars exploded, and a magnificent galaxy was born.

With Gene Origin Core and psychic Origin Core advancing simultaneously, Xu Qing's body and soul rapidly evolved, becoming even more powerful.

At this moment, Xu Qing broke through to the Universe Level!

Moreover, both the Warrior and the Spirit Controller have broken through to the Universe Level.

Brush!

Xu Qing opened his eyes, a flash of colorful divine light appeared, and a powerful pressure was released.

"This is Universe Level, feels pretty good," Xu Qing stood up and clenched his fingers.

Compared to the Star Level, the Universe Level is noticeably different; he can clearly sense that he has the ability to destroy a planet.

"Xiao Qing," at this moment, a black and gold light flashed, and the Golden Horned Behemoth appeared in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing looked at the other person and said, "Brother-in-law, you're almost at the breakthrough stage, aren't you?"

"That's right, he's already at the ninth level of the Universe Level and is about to break through," Luo Feng said with a smile.

"If eating metal can make you grow this fast, I wish I could just eat things and increase my strength too," Xu Qing muttered.

Two years ago, the Golden Horned Behemoth was only at the Universe Level Sixth Order, but in just two years, it reached the ninth level of the Universe Level, like a rocket.

"Xiao Qing, don't be so ungrateful. Look at how far your Origin Law have progressed. If your level could increase this quickly, that would be truly unfair," Luo Feng shook his head.

Xu Qing pursed his lips. "Is my level of Origin Law really that high? I don't think so."

"Almost there and you're still not good enough?" Luo Feng rolled his eyes.

According to Babata, once the Origin Law are perfected, one can condense the Origin Law Mark, something that most Peak World Lord can only achieve.

Even someone like Luo Feng, whose highest level of mastery Origin Law of Gold, is still some distance from achieving minor mastery.

Xu Qing is almost at the peak of his cultivation; isn't that terrifying?

"I'm almost at the peak of cultivation, but not quite. There's not enough time. If only I could create a few Clone to help me cultivate," Xu Qing said helplessly.

Luo Feng was speechless. Moreover, what did he mean by not having enough time? It was clearly his own insistence on a balance between work and rest, and he probably didn't even spend a third of his daily cultivation time.

"Who told you to comprehend so many Origin Law at once, and then refuse to increase your cultivation time? You don't have enough cultivation time to spare, do you?" Luo Feng glanced at him.

Xu Qing felt a little guilty. "You have to eat one bite at a time, and you have to cultivate one step at a time. My plan is still quite reasonable."

Luo Feng shook his head; this kid was clearly just lazy.

However, he couldn't say that it was wrong, after all, Xu Qing's cultivation efficiency was very high, and he spent so much time cultivating every day without any delay.

"Since you think this is the best way for you, then what else is there to say?" Luo Feng shook his head.

"I was just saying it offhand," Xu Qing said, pursing her lips.

Suddenly, Luo Feng thought of something. "Xiao Qing, don't rush to improve your level of the Origin Law. Focus on leveling up first. If you gain the recognition of the Origin Law and condense the Origin Law Mark at the Universe Level, it will attract too much attention."

"The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind. We have no one to rely on, so we must be extremely careful with every step we take."

"At the very least, we need to wait until we have a reliable backer within the Virtual Universe Company."

Xu Qing nodded. "Yes, I understand. I will. It just so happens that the Origin Law of the Time System have fallen behind, so I can focus my energy on this."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng's lips twitched; he felt the aura of Versailles emanating from him.

"You can also give me more pointers so that my level of Origin Law can improve faster," Luo Feng said.

"Brother-in-law, aren't you researching Yan Shen Armament and Babata arranging training for you? You must be very busy," Xu Qing said, crossing his arms.

Luo Feng thought about it and realized it made sense; his current cultivation schedule was packed full.

"Well, I'll ask you for advice when I have a little more free time," Luo Feng said.

"Okay, I'm home every day anyway. Sigh, after the eldest brother left, the second brother went back to his base to train hard. I have no one to brag to now," Xu Qing sighed.

Luo Feng laughed, "Alright, stop being cheeky. You'll have plenty to brag about later."

"Okay, I'm going back, brother-in-law," Xu Qing nodded, then transformed into a beam of light and flew towards Earth.

Looking in the direction Xu Qing had left, Luo Feng's pupils gleamed with a dark golden light. "Soon, the universe."

In the blink of an eye, another year has passed, and the Reincarnation Battle in the Ganwu Universe Nation has finally come to an end.

Arena No. 1, Preparation Hall.

Xu Qing, sporting his distinctive lobster-shaped head, walked in with Luo Feng.

Everyone looked over. Three years ago, Luo Feng defeated the Savage Rong Jun and earned the reputation of being the number one genius in the Ganwu Universe Nation.

Now, three years have passed, and it remains to be seen whether he can still hold onto the title of the number one genius.

"Luo Feng," a deep voice rang out, and Rong Jun walked over.

"Rong Jun," Luo Feng smiled and nodded at him.

The two had sparred quite a bit in private over the past three years, with each side winning and losing, but Luo Feng had won more often.

"Hey big guy, do you have masochistic tendencies? Otherwise, why are you always picking fights with my brother-in-law?" Xu Qing said.

Rong Jun glared at him, "Nonsense, I didn't lose everything."

"So what if you lost more?" Xu Qing quipped.

"How can there be no difference?" Rong Jun glanced at him sideways. No wonder Luo Feng said that back then; it turns out his brother-in-law was the real weirdo.

Rong Jun fought Xu Qing and was tortured terribly. Xu Qing used silk threads and the Origin Law of Wood to completely restrain him.

In the end, Rong Jun didn't even find out Xu Qing's background.

Finally, Xu Qing said to him, "Kid, wood overcomes earth. My Origin Law of Wood is the father of your Origin Law of earth."

Rong Jun was furious at the time, but in the end, Xu Qing tied him up like a rice dumpling.

After the war, Luo Feng revealed to him that Xu Qing's greatest skill was archery.

Rong Jun then understood that Xu Qing was shrouded in an eerie aura. As Spirit Controller, he wielded silk threads; as Warrior, he wielded a bow, and he was skilled in both.

People usually use Spirit Controller for ranged combat and Warrior for melee combat, but Xu Qing does the complete opposite. Isn't that strange?

This is absolutely bizarre!

"Everyone, please enter the Martial Arena!" a staff member from Virtual Universe Company called out.

Xu Qing and his thousand men headed towards the Martial Arena.

In the Martial Arena stood an incredibly tall man, over eight meters high, dressed in a scale armor robe and helmet, exuding a chilling aura.

His terrifying gaze swept over the thousand geniuses, sending chills down their spines; this was an Immortal Expert.

"Congratulations! You will be representing the Ganwu Universe Nation in the competition against the top geniuses of other Universe Country."

"Currently, because the situations of each Universe Country are different, and the internal selection times are also different, the ultimate showdown of geniuses between Universe Country will not officially begin for another year and a half."

"In other words, you have a year and a half to work hard to improve yourselves and prepare for the ultimate showdown."

Stepping out of the Martial Arena, Xu Qing stretched. "There's still a year and a half left. I can continue cultivating in peace. Brother-in-law, do you have enough money?"

"That's enough," Luo Feng nodded with a smile. Xu Qing knew he was a money-devouring beast, so he transferred fifty Hunyuan Unit of Universe Coin to him.

This sum of money, if Luo Feng is careful, is enough for him to squander for a while.

It has to be said that Xu Qing, his brother-in-law, is really good to him.

"By the way, Xiao Qing, you could try ordering Nutrient Pod. It's a bit expensive, but it's perfect for leveling up, and you're not short of money," Luo Feng suggested.

"Nutrient Pod, huh? Okay, I understand. Let me take a look," Xu Qing said, rubbing his chin.

Leveling up is a process of quantitative change, and it's perfectly fine to rely on external forces.

On the Bailan Star, in the survival base.

"This is the Nutrient Pod?" Xu Qing looked at the E-Grade Nutrient Pod he had just bought. This thing was very expensive, although Xu Qing didn't care about the money.

"Yes, Elder Brother, with it, your body can quickly absorb cosmic energy and promote the evolution of your body's genes," Akaro said.

After a pause, it added, "However, the Nutrient Solution in the Nutrient Pod only works on the body, so it cannot be used for extended periods. It needs to be paused from time to time to relieve mental stress."

"Okay, I understand. Let's give it a try then," Xu Qing said, taking off his clothes and stepping into the Nutrient Pod.

Then, Akaro controlled the Nutrient Pod and began injecting Nutrient Solution Nutrient Solution, which was the most expensive component.

Xu Qing was submerged in the Nutrient Solution, and he could soon feel the powerful life energy entering his body, promoting the absorption of nutrients by all his cells and evolving his genes.

Two weeks later, the Nutrient Pod was opened, and Xu Qing came out, dressed, and said, "The effect is indeed quite good."

With this Nutrient Pod, he won't need to worry about leveling up anymore and can focus on comprehending the Origin Law.

"Let's go home," Xu Qing said.

Soon, a Spaceship departed from Bailan Star.

And so, a year and a half passed quickly, and the Earth had entered the second half of 2070.

On the balcony, Xu Qing lay on his wife's lap, holding a tablet and typing rapidly.

"Ugh, here again, one more time," Xu Qing muttered.

Qin Lin and Zhao Ruo smiled at each other. More than a decade had passed, and their demeanor had become even more gentle and composed.

Xu Qing, on the other hand, looks almost exactly the same as he did more than a decade ago; he's still as playful and mischievous as ever.

Walking down the street, strangers all mistook Xu Qing for a high school student and would never guess that he was thirty years old.

Moreover, when they walk together, people either treat them like siblings or like mother and son...

"Xiao Qing, the ultimate showdown between geniuses is just around the corner. Are you nervous?" Qin Lin asked.

"Nervous? What's that? Linlin, that's a really basic question," Xu Qing turned her head and glanced at her.

Qin Lin laughed and gently pinched his waist, "Don't be naughty."

"Yeah, I'll spank you if you keep being naughty," Zhao Ruo said, raising her hand and slapping his butt.

Xu Qing glared, "You've already hit him."

"What, you're not convinced?" Zhao Ruo raised an eyebrow.

"You dare spank your husband? You deserve to be punished!" Xu Qing rolled over and started playfully wrestling with the two of them, filling the room with laughter.

Finally, the final scene of the Genius Battle arrived: the ultimate showdown.

In the Virtual Universe, on a floating island above the Ganwu Continent, Xu Qing appeared, sporting a lobster head.

"Mr. Xu Qing, this way," the staff member said with a smile, pointing the way.

Xu Qing walked over and soon arrived at a square.

"Xiao Qing, why are you still wearing that lobster head?" Luo Feng waved.

"Is that even a question? Of course, it's my specialty. Don't forget my nickname is Flying Little Azure Dragon. I have many fans throughout the universe," Xu Qing said smugly.

"It really is a unique feature," Rong Jun couldn't help but remark.

If he hadn't learned from others about Xu Qing's actions during the elimination rounds, he wouldn't have known that Xu Qing was so cunning and twisted.

"How about the three of us form a team and call ourselves the Three Little Azure Dragons, invincible throughout the universe?" Xu Qing suggested to the two.

Luo Feng and Rong Jun refused without hesitation; they didn't want to have a lobster-like head.

"Tch, if you don't want to, fine. Don't be envious later," Xu Qing said, scoffing.

"We're definitely not envious," Luo Feng and Rong Jun said, their lips twitching. No normal person would be envious.

At this moment, some geniuses who knew Luo Feng and Rong Jun came over and greeted them.

"Wow, you're the legendary Lobster Head!"

Many people were surprised to see Xu Qing next to Luo Feng.

"Lobster head? Where's that lobster head?" Several geniuses suddenly became very excited.

Their faces were filled with anger and humiliation, because they were also from District 66, and Xu Qing had left an indelible impression on them during the elimination rounds.

"There it is, the lobster head is over there!" someone shouted.

Many geniuses looked over and began to discuss among themselves, "I heard that the number one in District 66 is a Perverted Lobster Head who loves to torture geniuses. Any genius he encounters suffers cruel torment."
