Chapter 306, Showing Off Talent
"Teacher, what secrets does Earth hold?" Luo Feng, clad in dark red cloud-piercing armor, stared blankly at Ye Muxuan, completely unaware that such a matter, involving the highest level of the human race, would fall upon him, a mere domain lord.
"To put it in terms you can understand, Earth was modified by a powerful being, and humans born on this planet find it easier to break through in terms of mental state," Ye Muxuan, dressed in an embroidered black robe, said. "That's why you were able to reach the ninth island in the Illusionary Sea when you were at the cosmic level, and Hong's mental state is even stronger, allowing him to pass through the twenty-first island with the strength of a domain lord."
"Those with high talent and comprehension can improve more easily when they are weak, so Bolan's progress is very fast. If he had insisted on focusing on the laws of space from the beginning, it would not have been easy for you to catch up with him. However, as each strong person progresses, they pay more attention to breakthroughs in their mental state. If nothing unexpected happens, Bolan will be crowned king earlier, but Hong will reach the level of a king before Bolan."
"You've been to Chaos City, so you should know its importance. It's our human race's sacred cultivation ground. But in the eyes of the higher-ups, Earth is just as important as Chaos City, as it can cultivate more geniuses with higher levels of spiritual cultivation. However, Earth is now your territory, and the race won't directly demand it back. Therefore, you need to consider the ownership and management rights of Earth."
"If you are willing to hand over the ownership of Earth to your race, then, just like in Chaos City, the five major human powers will form an alliance to manage it together."
"Teacher, if the races are to manage the Earth, then what about the Earthlings?" Upon hearing this, Luo Feng suddenly asked.
"Earth is a cradle for human geniuses. If the five major powers form an alliance to manage Earth, then Earth's value needs to be fully developed. Just like the time limit for comprehending the laws in Chaos City, not only will the current Earthlings need to leave Earth after giving birth, to make room for the next pregnant woman to enter Earth." Ye Muxuan, dressed in an embroidered black robe, spoke without concealing anything. This management method was almost foreseeable. "After all, Earth is a life-bearing planet, and overall it is simply too small."
Earth's diameter is only tens of thousands of kilometers, making it just an ordinary planet in terms of size. Its habitable space is limited, unlike Chaos City, which is located in a small universe and can continue to expand. As long as there are geniuses, even more can be squeezed in.
"Teacher!" Ye Muxuan, dressed in an embroidered black robe, looked at Luo Feng, a lean man in dark red cloud-piercing armor. His eyes held unwavering conviction. "I refuse!"
"I don't want people on Earth to leave their homes and the places that nurtured them!"
"If you don't want to, then you don't want to. There's no need to make it seem like your teacher is forcing you." Ye Muxuan, dressed in an embroidered black robe, remained silent for a while before slowly revealing a small smile. "But you should think it through. Those universe lords in the clan who can stand on equal footing with your teacher also have powerful families behind them. Each of their friends, disciples, relatives, and so on constitutes a huge force. If you are unwilling to hand over Earth to the clan, then you will be offending them."
"Among them, there must be some of the teacher's own clansmen."
Luo Feng, dressed in a dark red cloud-piercing battle armor, sat there, his thoughts clashing intensely.
"With the talent you've shown so far, you have the potential to become a powerhouse at the level of a ruler. But even if you can rival the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom you're familiar with, or even reach the level of your second senior brother Lian Luo, there's still a significant gap between you and your teacher," Ye Muxuan, embroidered in a black robe, said. "The gap widens as one progresses through the ranks. The difference between a universe lord and a ruler is even greater. Based on what you know about ruler-level powerhouses, even if the rulers of our more than a thousand universe kingdoms joined forces, I could defeat them in a single move."
Luo Feng suddenly looked up.
He had anticipated the gap between a king and a teacher, who were at the pinnacle of power, but he hadn't expected the gap to be so vast. The Lord of the Universe was a level completely above the king!
"Teacher—" Luo Feng, his thoughts clashing fiercely, managed to stammer, "I—"
Yes, if we don't relinquish ownership of Earth, we'll offend the strongest beings at the pinnacle of our race, including our teacher.
On the contrary, if he hands it over, he can instantly gain the favor of these powerful figures! They themselves no longer need this cradle, but their clansmen, relatives, friends, and disciples do, and this intricate connection forms a vast network.
"If you can't decide, I have a suggestion for you," Ye Muxuan said, seeing Luo Feng struggling.
Luo Feng looked up at Ye Muxuan, who was sitting across the stone table with a gentle and calm demeanor, and said, "Teacher, please speak."
"I suggest you sign a lease agreement with the Virtual Universe Company, leasing a portion of Earth—such as some sea areas, airspace, or a large island—to them. The Virtual Universe Company would pay the rent and manage it in conjunction with other forces. This way, you won't offend the highest levels of humanity, and you'll still gain enough resources to grow faster," Ye Muxuan, embroidered in a black robe, said. "The lease term could be ten thousand epochs, one hundred thousand epochs, or even until you have enough strength to sit at the same table as your teacher."
"Strength determines status. The promise your teacher can make to you is that if one day you are strong enough to sit with them, then the Earth will absolutely belong to you Earthlings."
"Teacher," Luo Feng said, looking at Ye Muxuan, "I can't make this decision alone. I need to discuss it with my older brothers."
"Yes, that's appropriate." Ye Muxuan nodded. "But you should make a decision quickly. The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for you."
"I know, teacher." Luo Feng stood up and said, "Thank you for your support."
"Furthermore, I know you have the ability, so show it. There's no need to keep hiding it. Within the human race, hiding is meaningless. The higher your talent and the stronger you are, the more confident your teacher will be in supporting you at the highest meeting."
"Teacher, I understand."
On this day, Luo Feng, a peerless genius who had been cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City and had made a great deal of noise, but had also broken through the Primordial Tongtian Mountain at the Domain Lord level, made a move again after hundreds of years of silence. He entered the Tongtian Bridge plane, broke through seven layers of the Tongtian Bridge, and went straight from the tenth layer to the seventeenth layer, passing through!
On this day, Hong, a core member of the Primal Secret Realm who was sent to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom as a special envoy for inspection, broke through the eighteen layers of illusion set up by the Illusionary Spirit King, the ultimate illusionist of the Universe Mercenary Alliance, without being injured at all!
On this day, Thor, who had always been optimistic and cheerful but low-key in his cultivation in the Qianwu Secret Realm, boldly challenged all the universe-level geniuses in the Qianwu Secret Realm. He overcame all obstacles and finally reached the top, becoming a god in one battle!
