532 89 Years Later
I’m already 152 years old in the blink of an eye.
Xu Jingming walked on a patch of grass. I once felt that time passed very slowly. I trained hard when I was young, participated in competitions in adulthood, recuperated after breaking my leg, made a comeback, and then retired… Back then, I felt that I had lived half my life. I planned to spend the rest of my life in Mingyue City with Miaomiao.
Who would’ve thought that was just the beginning?
With the arrival of the virtual world and the evolutionary methods made universal, I cultivated and experienced all kinds of things before finally becoming an Origin lifeform. Earth’s fate changed as a result. The 60 years from birth to becoming an Origin lifeform felt very long.
!!
92 years have passed since I became an Origin lifeform, but I find time passing so quickly. Xu Jingming also sighed.
It was very rare for anyone to live past 100 years old before the advent of the virtual world. It was now very common for people on Earth to live beyond 100.
To cosmic lifeforms, those in their 100s could only be considered children.
To an Origin lifeform… not many Origin lifeforms were that young.
It’s hard to imagine what the me in a few thousand years or tens of thousands of years will be like. Xu Jingming’s state of mind was also different from before he became an Origin lifeform.
He had guarded the Heavenly Python Cosmic Sector for 92 years and had intercepted many Hellions, but he had also seen too many decimated habitable planets.
This changed his mentality. His state of mind was as vast as the sea, and he could withstand these impacts. However, these impacts also broadened Xu Jingming’s mind, boosting his motivation.
He had a very strong belief.
He had to change the situation—the fate of the countless habitable planets—at the border from having to experience the calamity time and time again. Perhaps he was overestimating himself a little, but he didn’t seek perfect and permanent realization. A tiny change for the better was sufficient.
For example, in the past 92 years, the number of Star Alliances being ‘plundered’ dropped significantly after so many Hellion Origin lifeforms were killed. Statistics revealed that Xu Jingming had saved at least tens of thousands of habitable planets.
Although this was nothing compared to the countless habitable planets implicated at the border between the three cosmic sectors and the Hellions or the border between the five cosmic sectors and the Void Celestials, Xu Jingming believed that his influence would only increase as he improved himself.
Whoosh.
Xu Jingming walked on the grass, and a chair, table, and a great scholar appeared in front of him.
“Sir,” Xu Jingming greeted humbly.
“Wu Ming.” This great scholar, Mang Yu, was bald, and his golden eyes were very gentle. He was a councilor of the Cosmic Human Alliance, and his educational level had reached Lv. 132. He had extremely high achievements in auxiliary spatial models, and he had created 15 auxiliary spatial models himself.
“Our time is precious,” Mang Yu said with a smile. “Let’s begin.”
“Alright.” Xu Jingming nodded and sat in a chair.
“We ended our last lesson pertaining to the 172 spatial model.” Mang Yu pointed to his side, and a large number of three-dimensional diagrams appeared out of thin air.
Xu Jingming listened attentively.
If he wanted to become a Lv. 10 with the Heavenly Python Evolution, he needed to master six Force models. Only by mastering them could he have the required knowledge.
When Xu Jingming first became an Origin lifeform, he relied on his powerful brain to constantly absorb knowledge! When learning relatively superficial knowledge, Xu Jingming improved rapidly and constantly every day.
But after studying for more than 30 years, his improvement slowed down as his educational level reached Lv. 80. This was because the curriculum only became more and more profound! Just the brain of an Origin lifeform wasn’t enough to solve many problems.
Therefore… Xu Jingming started hiring teachers!
To study a Force model, one had to hire great scholars with very high achievements in Force models! These great scholars were also Origin lifeforms and could simultaneously maintain three clones in the virtual world.
Although they were very busy, it was still very easy to arrange for a clone to give some simple lectures! This was also a big bulk of their income.
Yes, the fees these great scholars charged for their lectures were very expensive.
“Sir, please pause. I don’t understand this. How does the spatial structure change at this step?” Xu Jingming immediately asked.
“Oh, the transformation of the spatial structure is very simple. How about this? I’ll dissect it and explain it in detail.” Mang Yu understood Xu Jingming’s confusion and described it in depth again, afraid that Xu Jingming wouldn’t understand. He even used all kinds of examples to elucidate his point.
Xu Jingming nodded.
The problems he encountered when immersing himself in research alone could be analyzed by such great scholars from different angles, causing the difficulty to plummet.
Unknowingly, ten hours passed.
“That’s all for today’s class,” Mang Yu said with a smile. “See you tomorrow.”
“Thank you, sir,” Xu Jingming thanked.
“Haha, it’s my job to teach you well. Otherwise, if word gets out… many people will probably criticize me for not doing my job after being paid.” Mang Yu chuckled. He knew very well that Wu Ming was one of the top geniuses on the cosmic human race’s evolutionary path. His talent was probably comparable to Redmond’s.
Mang Yu wasn’t arrogant in any way when teaching him.
His lessons were very expensive—one billion cosmic dollars an hour. However, his attitude was different when facing different students. At the very least, he was very polite to Xu Jingming.
“Sir, your teaching is excellent. I feel that it won’t be long before I completely grasp the auxiliary spatial model,” Xu Jingming commented.
“You’re smart,” Mang Yu said. “If you put your mind to it, you have the talent as a scholar. Of course… for an evolutionary genius like you, grasping a certain level of science is sufficient. Any deeper will only mislead you.”
The two chatted briefly before the great scholar left.
One billion cosmic dollars an hour, so a day of tutoring costs ten billion cosmic dollars. It’s very expensive, but it’s worth it! Xu Jingming was still very satisfied.
Ever since he hired great scholars to give him lectures, his accrual of knowledge reentered a channel for rapid growth.
I’ve already grasped four of the six Force models needed for Life Evolution. I can probably grasp the fifth auxiliary spatial model in a year, Xu Jingming thought. I reckon… I should be able to grasp the most difficult sixth model in a century or two.
Going from Lv. 9 to Lv. 10 in 200 to 300 years is considered very fast. Xu Jingming was still very satisfied.
He spent a huge sum of money hiring great scholars because he wanted to improve quickly enough and increase his chances of becoming a Paramount.
As for money? Xu Jingming had accumulated wealth very quickly by intercepting and killing Hellion Origin lifeforms. He couldn’t spend it as fast as he earned!
Education Lv. 87. Xu Jingming opened his interface and took a look.
Xu Jingming’s educational level finally reached Lv. 87; it was the culmination of 92 years of work thanks to the brain of an Origin lifeform, his natural talent, and the guidance of different great scholars.
Even without Nine, my strength is considered at the apex among Lv. 9 Origin lifeforms. Xu Jingming knew very well because he received such an appraisal from the virtual world. He had learned the Light Rays legacy, so his combat strength was quite strong.
With the accumulation of my knowledge and the improvement of my mental strength over the years, I can unleash Nine’s strength to a greater extent. Many of my methods have reached the level of a top Lv. 10. Xu Jingming was quite satisfied.
Now, he dared to fight a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform head-on.
Light Rays’ Visualization, however, has been stuck at Lv. 9 after so many years. Xu Jingming frowned.
Before he became an Origin lifeform, his visualization had reached Lv. 8.
He reached Lv. 9 with the visualization method about 30 years into being an Origin lifeform. Then, it came to a standstill.
It’s getting harder and harder to visualize. Xu Jingming found it worrisome. Mental strength was very important every step on the evolutionary path. Moreover, his mental strength determined how much strength the Primordial Battle Armor #9 could unleash.
One step at a time. Xu Jingming quickly calmed down.
…
In the virtual world.
Xu Jingming and his wife, Li Miaomiao, rode their galloping horses.
Regardless of what happened in reality, Xu Jingming insisted on spending time with his family in the virtual world every day.
“Those bandits wanted to rob me just now.” Li Miaomiao rode her horse and smiled like a blooming flower. “I drew my sword and killed more than half of the bandits with a flash. This Sword Qi World is really interesting. All of them are swordsmen; I like them very much.”
“When I request for a gathering, our daughter always says that she has something on. Is it because the corporation has left too much on its plate?”
“Let me tell you some good news,” Li Miaomiao whispered. “Our daughter is finally in a relationship again.”
“A relationship?” Xu Jingming revealed a look of delight. “It’s been more than 90 years, and this day has finally come. I thought our daughter wouldn’t date for the rest of her life.”
Their daughter, Xu Lixing, had dated Qin Fangke from the Oro family back then.
Later on, Xu Jingming became an Origin lifeform, and countless people pursued Xu Lixing. However, Xu Lixing never bothered with them, causing Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao to worry.
“Our daughter has been with him in the virtual world for ten years. She likes him, so she shared it with me,” Li Miaomiao said.
“Dating only after ten years? This girl sure can hold it in,” Xu Jingming remarked.
“I couldn’t tell at all if she hadn’t revealed it. Our daughter is getting better at hiding things. According to her, she had entered a virtual world, and the man is her junior brother!”
“What’s the man’s situation in real life? Don’t let Qin Fangke’s situation repeat itself.” Xu Jingming was worried.
“According to our daughter, she’s very confident that she won’t make a mistake. She plans on asking about that junior brother’s actual situation in the near future.”
Xu Jingming nodded slightly.
Suddenly, Xu Jingming received a message. As he was constantly on standby to intercept Hellion Origin lifeforms, his settings… were to receive messages at all times.
Senior Brother Redeye has broken through and become an Origin lifeform? Xu Jingming was a little stunned when he received the message and read it.
“What’s wrong?” Li Miaomiao asked.
“You remember Senior Brother Redeye?”
“Yes,” Li Miaomiao replied with a smile. “He found his true love in Demon Vanquishing World. I heard from you that he has a very powerful background.”
“Yes.” Xu Jingming nodded. “I’ve long heard the rumors. I knew he had a powerful background, but I never expected it to be this powerful.”
Even with his mental fortitude, he was a little stunned when he learned of Redeye’s true identity.
