Zhou Heng, the Black Donkey, and Little Fire began their journey across the Star Sea.
With the Black Donkey, traveling at the cosmic level beca quite convenient. The Teleportation Rune could be activated endlessly, allowing them to traverse tens of thousands of miles in an instant. The only limitation was the donkey’s spiritual power; after all, it couldn’t teleport continuously without end. At most, they could travel for a day before needing to stop and recover spiritual power.
But when the Black Donkey was recovering, Zhou Heng could continue the journey, though his speed was far less than that of the Black Donkey.
Along the way, they encountered Star Sea pirates, but perhaps the pirates thought they looked too poor and didn’t even have the intention to rob them. Of course, when it was the Black Donkey’s turn to travel, the Star Sea pirates didn’t even have ti to react before they had teleported away.
From the Eternal Dragon Star to the Hundred Dragons Star, even Hongyue took two months to traverse, indicating how vast the distance was! Even though the Black Donkey mastered the Teleportation Rune, it was still far from matching Hongyue’s speed, and even at full speed, it might take a year to reach.
Moreover, the Black Donkey didn’t have Hongyue’s powerful divine sense and rich experience; it didn’t know whether its direction was correct and had to land on a nearby star every few days to compare the Star Chart and make sure it wasn’t heading the wrong way.
Thus, the speed naturally beca even slower.
Zhou Heng didn’t mind, taking the journey slowly; who knows, they might encounter opportunities or witness the ergence of so Holy dicine along the way!
Unfortunately, Holy dicine isn’t sothing easily encountered. A Black Hole Realm expert may not find even one in a million years, so stumbling upon one while traveling would require remarkable luck.
The Black Donkey, having eaten a Chaos-Level Heaven-Earth Fruit, actually found its cultivation speed increasing as it progressed further, completely defying martial common sense. Even while traveling through the Star Sea, its cultivation speed didn’t stall, continuing to advance steadily.
Zhou Heng was the sa. His Star Vortex could draw spiritual energy from the void, rapidly and steadily enhancing spiritual power accumulation, progressing fiercely. Only Little Fire followed the path of Body Cultivation and could only grow by eating.
Fortunately, Zhou Heng had a large share in the Mysterious Heaven Camp. Even though he was outside, he didn’t miss out on any benefits. There was plenty of Black Hole Realm beast at, enough for the three of them to eat while traversing the cosmos.
While the Black Donkey was traveling, Zhou Heng began researching ways to accelerate cultivation.
The first thod was Holy dicine, but Holy dicine was too rare. Moreover, even if Holy dicine elevated him to the Black Hole Realm, how was he supposed to traverse the long path from the Black Hole Realm to the Chaos Realm?
He couldn’t rely on Holy dicine either, right?
Even with Huo Tian’s assistance, it would be difficult to acquire so much top-tier Holy dicine!
The second thod involved Star Cores, Cot Realm, and Black Hole Realm Star Cores! But these were even rarer than Holy dicine, more sought after and virtually unattainable, so they couldn’t be relied upon either.
The third thod was the Black Sword, which granted the ability to slay experts. Yet, as his cultivation level increased, the number of experts he needed to kill grew exponentially. It was still the age-old problem: it wasn’t hard to reach the Black Hole Realm, but where could he find so many Black Hole Realm experts to kill after reaching that level?
The Demon Sea indeed had countless such beings, but they were dead spirits, and the Black Sword absorbed Life Essence Qi, which was entirely different from what was required!
Finally, there was the Star Vortex!
This allowed him to draw spiritual energy directly from the void. Why it could do so, Zhou Heng didn’t completely understand, but he didn’t need to understand—as long as it worked, that was enough.
The most reliable thod was to enhance the speed of the Star Vortex’s absorption of spiritual power!
After the Purple Crystal’s enhancent, Zhou Heng received a clue.
The Star Vortex could indeed be accelerated!
Previously, his cultivation involved absorbing nearby nature’s spiritual energy into his body and transforming it into accumulated spiritual power. This was limited by the innate quality of one’s body, which varied from person to person.
No matter how significant the disparity, in the face of the vast spiritual power accumulation of the Cot Realm, even at the fastest rate, it would still be asured in tens of thousands of years!
Zhou Heng couldn’t wait such an enormously long ti!
But what if he could further accelerate the Star Vortex?
Theoretically, if he needed only thirty years to reach Cot Realm’s Great Perfection and could increase the Star Vortex’s speed tenfold, wouldn’t he only need three years?
Three years, a tifra within his acceptance.
Now, he was investigating how to propel the speed of the Star Vortex. When the Black Donkey was tasked with traveling, he pondered over it even while he was traveling, occasionally almost losing his way before Little Fire’s sharp bite brought him back to his senses.
Ti passed quietly amid the Star Sea traversal—one month, two months, half a year!
Zhou Heng completely lost his sense of ti, continuously trying to influence the Star Vortex. In the first month, he had no clear direction. In the second month, he reversed the approach, focusing his efforts on deceleration.
By the third month, he finally had a breakthrough, and by the fourth month, he could effectively decelerate the Star Vortex. Starting from the fifth month, he attempted to accelerate it again.
Ard with the experience of deceleration, he had a clearer picture when accelerating. Finally, by the seventh month, he had a sudden clarity!
Acceleration success!
But the increase was less than a thousandth!
No rush, every tall building must start from the ground up. The ability to accelerate showed that this path was feasible, so perseverance was the key.
One-thousandth, two-thousandths, three-thousandths. Zhou Heng’s unparalleled comprehension shone monstrously at this ti, displayed as the tiline reached the eighth month. He had already raised the Star Vortex’s speed by ten percent!
But that still wasn’t enough—Zhou Heng’s goal was a tenfold increase, not rely ten percent!
The ninth month, the tenth month, the eleventh month!
As they were about to reach Hundred Dragons Star, Zhou Heng doubled the speed of the Star Vortex!
He smiled, realizing he was far from reaching his limit and could continue to improve!
Another month passed, and Hundred Dragons Star was finally in sight!
The Black Donkey let out a cheer, whoosh, and in a flash, had entered Hundred Dragons Star.
Buzz!
A terrifyingly powerful will descended rapidly, frightening the Black Donkey so much that its legs went soft and it sat down on the ground.
"You’re back?" This was Hongyue.
Zhou Heng smiled slightly and said, "I’m back!"
"Not bad, you’ve ford a Thousand-Path Milky Ways, not far from the peak of the Cot Realm!" Hongyue was very pleased, "Co over first, and we’ll talk!" Her will transford into a large jade-white hand, opening and closing, and with a flash of space, she whisked Zhou Heng and the others to Wuyang Academy.
Five years had passed, and the academy had regained its forr liveliness, but the area where Hongyue and they lived had beco a forbidden zone, with no one daring to set foot there.
"Husband!" Upon seeing Zhou Heng suddenly appear, Ying ngfan and the other won rushed toward him excitedly.
Zhou Heng opened his arms and hugged each of the ladies in turn. When it was Feng Lianqing’s turn, the wild girl looked at him warily and said, "I don’t want you to hug , it’ll make pregnant!"
Poof!
Zhou Heng spat out, who taught her that hugging would make one pregnant? If it were that easy, the Zhou Family wouldn’t still be without a new generation!
When they learned he had returned, Zhao Luoyan, Liu Yun’er, and Liu Shishi all hurried over. To high-tier Martial Artists, five years was nothing, and none of them had aged; in fact, Liu Yun’er had beco even more radiant, carrying a hint of her mother’s charming allure.
When this mother and daughter stood side by side, Zhou Heng almost mistook them for sisters.
Currently, Liu Yun’er had been crowned Emperor, yet she retained none of the regal bearing, remaining as capricious as ever.
At the welco banquet, the ladies exchanged glances with Zhou Heng, subtly indicating that certain fields hadn’t seen any tilling for four or five years and needed so diligent cultivation! Zhao Luoyan was especially enticing, taking advantage of a toast to pretend to lose her footing and fall into Zhou Heng’s arms, her jade leg lightly brushing against his, almost prompting him to press this temptress down on the table right there!
Liu Shishi was as bold and fiery as ever, and when it was her turn to toast, she said, "When are you going to marry ?"
Zhou Heng rolled his eyes, "When did I ever say I was going to marry you?"
"You chased away my fiancé, and now everyone thinks I’m your woman. Who else would dare marry ? Are you trying to avoid responsibility?" Liu Shishi said fiercely.
Being a good guy! Being a good guy!
Being a good guy leads to this outco! Zhou Heng sighed deeply.
If others knew, they would surely be infuriated! Having beauties throwing themselves at you, and still being picky, it’s too pretentious, truly intolerable!
But from Zhou Heng’s perspective, he already had enough won around him and really didn’t want to cultivate new fields; he just wanted to diligently work the important ones he already had!
That night, he naturally fulfilled his duties as a man.
Thankfully, he now had the fully manifested Dragon Body, boasting exceptional stamina, allowing him to withstand these long-neglected won! Yet even so, after three days and nights of wildness, he could only collapse into a deep sleep.
Afterward, he resud researching the acceleration of the Star Vortex.
It hit a bottleneck at three tis the speed due to Zhou Heng’s insufficient strength to propel the Star Vortex to higher speeds.
Though he couldn’t speed up the Star Vortex any further himself, that didn’t an it was impossible.
He sought out Hongyue, who possessed power beyond his comprehension, certain that she could help him drive the Star Vortex.
But first, he had to clarify sothing.
"I t Huo Tian!" As soon as he saw Hongyue, Zhou Heng got straight to the point.
"So you know that Huo Tian is my..."
"Master!" Zhou Heng nodded.
"Do you want to know why I betrayed my Master?" Hongyue smiled faintly, "You might not believe it, but Heaven’s Mandate True Monarch has a peculiar ability that makes people unconsciously trust him and be controlled by him!"
"He magnified my desire for power a hundred tis, ultimately leading to strike against my Master!"
"And the sa thing happened to my disciple!"
"This person I trusted in every way, yet they still betrayed !" (To be continued. If you like this work, welco to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.)
