Swallowing the Stars: The Rise of Emperor Wei

Leaving his teacher's residence, Gao Sheng walked on the streets of Chaos City.

"The teacher has actually stopped requiring me to cultivate the Law of Fire and is instead telling me to focus on the Law of Space?"

"That's right. I'm far behind in the laws of space right now. The opportunity to cultivate in Chaos City is rare, so I should cherish the remaining time and solidify my foundation in the laws of space."

"Since I'm going to cultivate the laws of space, I need to find a suitable place to live. This place was alright before, but..."

"Oh, right."

Gao Sheng smiled and took flight.

"Cultivation residence number 0290028981 is located over here..."

On the other side of Chaos City, Luo Feng was staring blankly at the sky, his entire consciousness actually immersed in cultivation.

A streak of light flew over from afar and landed directly on the rooftop.

"Gao Sheng, what brings you here?" Luo Feng's eyes regained their liveliness as he stood up.

For more than ten years, although the two had been in Chaos City, they had never met again, only a few times in the virtual universe.

"No, I'm not here to chat with you. You just focus on your cultivation. I'm here to take a look at the inscriptions on this rooftop," Gao Sheng said with a smile.

"It won't take much time... You mean burning it?" Luo Feng asked in surprise.

"I bought a secret technique called 'Blood Flow'," Gao Sheng said with a smile.

"That's a secret technique of the Nine Universes School." Luo Feng was even more surprised.

"What? There are different schools of thought on the laws of space? And different schools have different laws of space?"

"That's true," Luo Feng nodded, then smiled, "Since that's the case, why don't you just meditate on this rooftop from now on? That way, it'll be easier for us to exchange ideas."

"Hmm, that's fine too." Gao Sheng smiled.

If the owner of the residence agrees, of course it's fine. Not to mention cultivation, there's no problem living in the same residence.

From that day on, Gao Sheng abandoned the Law of Fire and devoted most of his time to cultivating the "Empty Sword" and "Blood Flowing". He would meditate on the rooftop of Luo Feng's residence for a long time, only going to his teacher's manor to ask for guidance once every ten days or half a month.

Occasionally, the two would exchange cultivation experiences. Through their collision of insights, not only Gao Sheng but also Luo Feng felt that he was making rapid progress, much faster than when he cultivated alone.

Luo Feng was completely focused on "Bloodstained Swordsmanship," determined to master a particular sword technique.

Gao Sheng was different. As required by the Fire King, he simultaneously cultivated the first nine volumes of two secret techniques. The profound mysteries of these nine spatial laws were not in any particular order.

I only look at "The Hundred Solutions to Fire" when I feel exhausted from practicing.

As the years passed, the Nine Forms of the Empty Sword and the Nine Sets of Blood-Drifting Sword Technique all improved, but none of them were fully mastered.

……

Three years later, in the living room of an ordinary cultivation residence in Chaos City.

"Disciple pays respects to Master."

Ji Qing knelt on the ground, extremely excited.

"Hmm, get up." A stunningly beautiful woman sat on the opposite sofa, a hint of affection in her eyes.

Ji Qing stood up and looked at her teacher.

It has long purple hair and a fluffy purple tail, and especially its purple eyes; anyone who sees it would probably have all sorts of fantasies.

Even a woman like Ji Qing, who was wholeheartedly devoted to the path of cultivation, blushed slightly when she saw those eyes.

Not long ago, Ji Qing finally passed through the third level of the Tongtian Bridge. The guardian of the Tongtian Bridge also sent the message to all the grandmasters of the Dark Chaos Stele lineage.

A genius in illusion is rare, and Ji Qing immediately attracted the attention of several grandmasters. In the end, this stunning beauty, the Illusion King of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, personally came to Chaos City and accepted Ji Qing as his disciple.

Taking on disciples is a very important matter, and it can't just be said in the virtual universe. Ji Qing can't leave Chaos City, so naturally the Illusionary Spirit King has to do it himself. You should know that even when the Universe King took Rong Jun as his disciple, he personally appeared in Chaos City.

Therefore, the fact that King Huozang personally went to Chaos City to seek a master in the real world was not merely a matter of face.

……

Gao Sheng was unaware of Ji Qing's apprenticeship; at that moment, he was sitting with Luo Feng, gazing at the sky.

"Promotion".

Xiao Ai read an email directly into Gao Sheng's consciousness.

"Old Fatty, you've become a domain lord?" Gao Sheng was taken aback.

In the virtual universe, in the Jiuxingwan residential area, a large crowd had already gathered in front of Rod's villa.

"Congratulations, Mr. Rhodes!"

"Elder Rhodes, congratulations!"

……

Most of them were from the Wei Di family, and many high-ranking people from the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region also came after hearing the news.

Gao Sheng and Luo Feng appeared one after the other.

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it.

"Your Highness, you've been promoted!"

"Your Highness Luo Feng!"

"Chieftain!"

"Promoted, sir!"

"Your Highness Luo Feng!"

They all shouted enthusiastically, with smiles on their faces.

The two responded with smiles.

After offering his congratulations, Luo Feng returned to his own manor, where Luo De and Shui Lan'er were overjoyed to welcome their son into the hall.

"Let's go inside and talk," Gao Sheng gestured.

"Everyone!" Rhodes said to the crowd, "I will host a banquet for you all another day. You may all leave now."

The bustling crowd in front of the villa gradually dispersed.

In the living room.

"Son, is my cultivation speed alright?" Rhodes asked with a broad smile and winking.

Gao Sheng chuckled: "Fine, I think the main thing is that the medicine is effective."

"Tch, you have no idea, your old man is so busy every day that he barely has time to breathe. I have to squeeze out time to cultivate!" Rhodes said with a look of dissatisfaction.

Shui Lan'er was right next to them, watching the father and son bicker with a smile on her face.

Domain Lord-level bloodline potions are that powerful. Those cosmic humans with first-class bloodlines can become Domain Lords naturally without any cultivation resources. They even suppress their breakthroughs at the Eternal Star and Cosmic Star levels to avoid having an insufficient foundation.

Rhodes did not suppress it, but used ample resources and even nutrient capsules to accelerate his improvement. In just over forty years, he broke through from the first level of the cosmic level to the first level of the domain lord level, much faster than Lanluo who used the Heart of the Stars.

Before long, the old patriarch Pero, along with two other elders, Talo and Kolk, also arrived.

Talo has now reached the eighth level of Domain Lord and, like Pero, is wholeheartedly devoted to cultivation.

"Elder, I would like to convene an elders' meeting to appoint a new president of the family company," Gao Sheng said.

Perrault nodded: "That's to be expected."

The Weidi family's previous major companies, along with some smaller companies run by other family members, have long been reorganized into a single large company, "Weihu Interstellar Company," which holds cross-shares with Luo Feng's Pinghai Company.

More than forty years ago, after becoming a cosmic-level being, Rhodes entered the top management of the Vity Corporation. In fact, in recent decades, Vity Corporation has been mainly managed by Rhodes and has developed very smoothly. Pero is just a figurehead.

Rhodes became the domain lord, which was a legitimate and proper recognition of his title.

"Alright, you four can discuss this matter yourselves. I won't participate," Gao Sheng said.

"Don't worry, the clan leader's cultivation time is precious, there's no need to concern yourself with these matters." The three elders nodded in agreement.

……

After finishing their business, Gao Sheng, Pero, and Talo entered the family manor on the floating island.

Gao Sheng looked at the two of them and smiled, "Have you encountered any problems with your recent cultivation? Is there anything you need?"

Perrault and Talo exchanged a glance.

Pero said, "Resources and secret techniques are no longer lacking. It's just that I still can't grasp the key to unifying these domains..."

"Me too," Talo nodded.

"In this regard, it mainly relies on personal understanding," Gao Sheng pondered. "I can only give a general overview of my feelings after unifying the domains..."

Both Pero and Talo have crossed the threshold of the Laws and comprehended the four attributes of their respective domains. To break through to the Realm Lord level, the first step is to unify their domains. After unifying their domains, they can integrate their understanding of the Laws and greatly enhance their affinity with the origin of the universe. They only need to guide their domains into their life cores to expand the singularity and create an inner world, which will naturally make them Realm Lords.

There are two major challenges: first, unifying the domains, and second, expanding the life core to create a world!

How to unify the domains was something that only the ancestor Emperor Wei could guide them on before, but now Gao Sheng can do it too.

The former relies on comprehension, while the latter depends on lineage and energy supply. Of course, the deeper one's comprehension of the laws, the easier it is to break through.

After spending a day at the manor, Gao Sheng returned to his own manor in Jiuxing Bay.

"Master!" Sasana hugged Gao Sheng's arms on either side.

Nan Si appeared at the entrance.

"elder sister!"

"Nansi!" Gao Sheng ran to the door himself.

Nan Si looked at Gao Sheng and said softly, "It's been more than a year since you've come back. Have you found a new love in Chaos City? That's not right of you. You should at least invite him over to introduce him to us."

"What are you saying, Madam? Well, since you're back, I'll stay a few more days this time and spend some quality time with you all," Gao Sheng said with a forced smile.

Nancy chuckled, while Sasha and Ina's eyes lit up; "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Gao Sheng laughed heartily. "Even cultivation requires a balance of work and rest."

Suddenly, Gao Sheng remembered when he last said those words. It must have been decades ago, but it felt like something from a past life.

……

In Chaos City, Gao Sheng looked up at the horizon, a smile playing on his lips.

Several more years have passed.

In the cultivation space, a rainbow light appeared and disappeared in a flash, then flew back to Gao Sheng.

It turned out to be an ordinary throwing knife.

"It's been incredibly difficult. Over seven years, I've finally grasped the fundamental mysteries of the laws of space. I've also gained considerable insight into the other eight."

After more than seven years, Gao Sheng finally comprehended one of the nine fundamental mysteries of the laws of space, which was the first volume of the Void Sword he had exchanged for and cultivated the longest.

Gao Sheng had cultivated this profound mystery for over ten years before coming to Chaos City.

Luo Feng, on the other hand, had already comprehended the first type more than ten years ago, and now he has comprehended eight types, and the ninth type is just around the corner, which is much faster than the other timeline.
