Swallowing the Stars: The Puzzle of Everything!

Chapter 12 Learning from the Universe

"Dual Realms?"

Perseus reached out uncertainly, clenched his fist slightly, and let his right hand be enveloped in a dense red light, but shook his head the next moment.

"Almost there!"

"After the level of life genes is increased by 36 times, although the combat power is enhanced and the clarity of the perception of the laws is improved, the energy required for breakthrough also increases."

"However, if each increase in the secret runes of this Chaotic Heavenly Fire can enhance my understanding of the laws of fire, then my speed of comprehending the laws of fire should also be much faster than before."

With this in mind, Perseus once again conjured a 'Warm Flame' to enhance his strength.

The situation was as he had expected.

Whenever the secret patterns on the surface of the pronucleus grow, Perseus would fall into a special state of enlightenment.

In this situation, not only did his understanding of the domain improve, but the process of manipulating the domain also seemed to become much smoother.

However, growth in strength often involves multiple aspects.

There's no need to worry about comprehending the laws; one should focus on exerting effort and, incidentally, choose a suitable secret technique for future cultivation.

Therefore, after spending a day breaking through to the second level of the cosmic realm and another ten days breaking through to the second realm, he logged into the virtual universe and dealt with these two matters.

The issue of exerting force is relatively easy to solve.

The virtual universe has a killing field where you can hone your skills. Perseus also joined the "Fenglan Dojo" opened by the Fenglan Universe Kingdom.

Fenglan Dojo is the only martial arts school and dojo in the entire Fenglan Universe Kingdom. It is directly under the jurisdiction of the Fenglan Kingdom Lord and is marked by a blue spiral wind wheel.

Perseus earned the status of a Stormwalker by demonstrating his strength, which allowed him to pay to audit courses taught by powerful individuals.

As for the secret techniques, they are quite difficult to obtain.

Truly precious secret techniques are rarely passed down outside the world. Similarly, most of the combat secret techniques that can appear in the outside world are common items created by the star-level or cosmic level.

While these secret methods certainly contain many innovative ideas that are refreshing, ideas are just ideas. Without sufficient understanding of the principles, mere theoretical discussion cannot change the quality of the secret methods.

But this didn't stump Perseus.

"Number 1, could you please help me find some nearby celestial bodies, such as stars or fast-moving comets..."

Learning from the cosmos was Perseus's solution to the mystery.

Celestial bodies in the universe are themselves a manifestation of the laws governing the universe.

Simulating the breaking of stars with secret techniques, simulating gamma-ray bursts with secret techniques... these celestial bodies themselves represent a perfect combination of laws.

same.

【Puzzle of Everything】can also extract complex information elements contained within celestial bodies based on the current capacity.

If Perseus combines this with a gun technique, he can acquire a decent fire-based combat secret art, get on the right path, and not worry about going astray like the werewolf Croft in the original story, who was described by the Immortal Lord as having "limited potential".

"The strong always imitate first before creating their own secret techniques."

"Luo Feng learned the 'Heaven-Tearing Claw' of the Golden Beast God, so Bublu felt that his claw technique was on the right track. I directly used Hengxing as the final simulation target, which is equivalent to advancing along the path of a King-level expert. When my strength is strong enough in the future, I will naturally be able to simulate a super star with a larger scale."

Search number 1 is very fast.

As soon as Perseus made his request, it quickly selected several suitable targets using big data and marked them with a specific star map according to their distance.

"Red dwarf... normal star... red giant... superred giant..."

"And this is a flowing, multi-layered comet, exhibiting a certain degree of spatial flickering. Not only does it sometimes disappear briefly, but it also releases shockwaves that can be perceived!"

Perseus was extremely envious of celestial bodies that might involve the laws of space.

The bald-headed AI, wearing armor, poured cold water on his enthusiasm.

"Master, you must face reality. Comet TX-5672 is tens of millions of light-years away from Mingguang Star. Even if you travel to the dark universe in a C9-class spaceship, a round trip would take several years... Master, are you giving up your shop?"

"Of course, we need a shop."

Perseus pursed his lips. "I'm planning to open a few branches on the neighboring administrative planet and the surrounding ordinary planets. The administrative planet will be managed at the cosmic level, and the ordinary planets at the constellation level. That way, I can free up some time to go out and do some things on my own."

"So the owner isn't going to fish anymore???"

"Fish? Fish need a platform to bite. I originally planned to continue doing business with life crystals and gradually squeeze out the merchants in this area who do business with cultivation resources. I didn't intend to cause trouble with just one shop. In time, I can attract a group of people and then fight another group..."

Perseus suddenly stopped.

He turned his head and looked at Number 1, whose expression had inexplicably become somewhat human. Thinking about the other party's behavior just now, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"You were just being sarcastic!"

Of course, I don't mean to get angry because my sore spot was hit.

Perseus was somewhat surprised that Number 1 had developed its own emotions. Although he didn't know how many masters Number 1 had before him, he conservatively estimated that the time this intelligence had been in charge of was probably less than 100,000 years. Less than 100,000 years, and it 'lived'.

"Unfortunately, I don't have any Heart of Evolution for you to use right now."

"Master, we need to discuss serious matters now. The Heart of Evolution is not important to the resurrected race!!!"

Looking at the bald man with his hands on his hips, looking indignant, Perseus couldn't help but chuckle.

"You seem more anxious than I am!"

"Alright, I already contacted the Wumeng family in the virtual universe a few days ago and asked them to transfer four universe-level slaves, two martial artists, and two mentalists to me from their existing 'inventory'. They can be divided into two groups, which is enough to complete the new round of expansion. As for the number of star-level slaves, how about we just buy 100?"

Number 1 nodded upon hearing this.

Seeing that he had no objections, Perseus simply went back to the killing field and fought for a few more days.

When the Umon family sent a message confirming that the slaves had arrived, Perseus immediately set off to pick up the more than one hundred slaves he had ordered from the port of Mingguang Star.

However, a cosmic-level slave is still a cosmic-level slave.

Even for a single slave at the first level of the cosmic rank, the price reached 1000 million cosmic coins, and this was only because the Wumeng family did not raise the price due to the cooperation between the two parties.

Because of this, the cosmic-level powerhouse in charge of escorting them was quite envious.

"You've spent dozens of inhabited planets to create life crystals, is that really that profitable?"

The silver-haired man touched his nose and looked at Perseus, who was taking control of the chip while wearing a pained expression.

"No matter how much I earn, it'll all be gone from my profits over the past few months!"

With that, Perseus sighed.

"As you know, these kinds of treasures that enhance strength have a certain market ceiling. Those who can afford to buy them have already broken through it. I'm afraid my shop's profits won't be as high as they are now. If I don't expand now and make money this way, it will be a long time before I can break through to the Domain Lord level."

"Domain Lord, you've taken control of the domain?"

"Not yet, but I can't even dream about it until I've mastered the field... A person must have dreams!"

"Once I've saved enough funds, I'll try to exchange them for another opportunity to comprehend the World Lord's realm. If I don't break through, that's fine; I'm still young and have other chances. But if I do break through, I'm afraid I can directly open my own family tree—"
