Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Chapter 115 Gu Fenghou: Good job

Inside the Qianwu secret realm.

In the study room on the third floor, Wang Xiu was filled with joy at this moment.

In the past, although he had a clear sense of the fundamental laws of space, it was not so real.

It’s like there’s a layer of grey glass in the middle. You can “see” it, but not so clearly.

In fact, this level of affinity has surpassed 99% of geniuses.

Among the top ten people in the Universe's Top Genius Battle in the original plot, except for Bolan and Luo Feng, the rest were about the same level.

But it's different now.

After obtaining a talent comparable to Bolan's innate ability in the Law of Origin of Space, Wang Xiu's perception of the Law of Origin of Space became extremely clear, as if he could touch it with his hand.

"From now on, I will no longer be constrained by the laws of the origin of space." Feeling the omnipresent and extremely clear laws of the origin of space in the dark, Wang Xiu felt extremely confident.

But at the same time, Wang Xiu was also very clear.

The affinity of the origin law of space is not omnipotent, and this simple affinity has an upper limit.

Putting aside the issue of comprehension, and simply considering the affinity with the original laws of space, Wang Xiu's affinity with the laws at this moment is among the top ones even in the entire primitive universe.

After all, Bolan's talent in the laws of the origin of space is recognized by the entire Chaos City. If he simply follows the lineage of the laws of the origin of space, he will have the hope of becoming a cosmic master.

This is enough to illustrate Bolan's talent in the laws of the origin of space.

But there is an upper limit to the affinity of simple laws.

Wang Xiu believed that the difference in affinity with the laws between Coty, who was hailed as a peerless genius that appeared once in billions of eras, and Bolan, who was hailed as a peerless genius that appeared once in tens of thousands of eras, was definitely not that big.

If affinity with the laws really determines everything, then humans would not be one of the six top ethnic groups.

Human race talents are not that strong in the vast primitive universe.

There are many races with more powerful talents than humans.

For example, the Demon Killing Clan is known as the "darlings of the origin laws of space", but how many cosmic lords and masters of the universe are there in their clan?

Affinity with the laws is certainly important, but what is more important are the invisible and intangible but crucial things such as understanding and character.

Perhaps at the level of world master or even immortal, these things are not that important.

But as time goes by, the importance of these things becomes more and more prominent.

Otherwise, in the original plot, after Hong showed his state of mind, he would not be directly accepted as a disciple by Ju Fu.

Giant Axe is the only true god among the human race!
In terms of status, he is much higher than the Lord of Chaos City.

Luo Feng was able to get Chaos City Lord to accept him as a disciple due to his talent, but he may not be able to get Giant Axe to accept him as a disciple.

"There is still one year left before the battle of top geniuses in the universe. It's time to practice hard." After the joy of obtaining the top-level talent of the origin law of space faded away, Wang Xiu quickly calmed down.

A year is a short time, and it is too late to comprehend the first mystery of the law of the origin of space.

Don’t forget, the battle of top geniuses in the universe is not a small-scale trial competition like the extreme martial arts gyms on Earth, but a grand event in which all stellar humans in the universe will participate.

The battle among the top geniuses in the entire universe is estimated to last five or six years from beginning to end.

It would be best if he could comprehend the mystery of the first law of the origin of space before the end of the battle of the top geniuses in the universe. As long as he comprehends the mystery of the first law of the origin of space, Wang Xiu is confident that Bolan will definitely not be his opponent.

Being able to comprehend the mystery of the first law of the origin of space means that Wang Xiu has truly grasped a glimpse of the essence of the law of the origin of space.

The combat power that can be unleashed at that time is definitely not comparable to that of those who have only a superficial understanding of the origin laws of space.

Even if the other party seems to have a higher understanding of the laws of the origin of space than Wang Xiu!

Wang Xiu has this confidence!
It doesn’t matter even if I can’t fully understand the mystery of the first law of the origin of space before the final battle. Losing to Bolan is losing to Bolan.

Wang Xiu is not the kind of person who can't afford to lose.

Moreover, Wang Xiu was confident that even if he lost to Borlan as the top genius in the universe, he would soon surpass Borlan again after entering Chaos City!

……

Half a year later, in the virtual universe, Wuji Island.

Realm Lord An Ya was not aware of Wang Xiu's talent in obtaining the top-level spatial origin law.

After all, outsiders cannot observe this kind of thing just by observation.

No one would have thought that a person could improve his affinity to the fundamental laws of space out of thin air.

He only knew that his highness seemed to be making faster and faster progress in understanding the laws of the origin of space.

Half a year ago, Wang Xiu could only display nine phantom bodies at most.

But not long ago, Anya saw with his own eyes that the number of phantom bodies displayed by his prince had suddenly increased to twenty.

When Anya saw this scene, his heart was deeply shocked.

You must know that no matter which law you follow, your comprehension will become slower and slower towards the end.

But Wang Xiu was getting faster and faster, which seemed totally unreasonable to An Ya.

After much thought, Anya could only attribute Wang Xiu's "abnormal" speed of progress to the fact that his prince had been practicing hard in recent times.

After all, before, Wang Xiu would take time out from time to time to go to the killing field and battle space to relax.

Anya, the head of the guards, knew all of this, and even Gu Fenghou knew it.

Although they all knew that a place like the killing field would not be of much benefit to Wang Xiu's actual cultivation.

But all along, Wang Xiu's practice has not been disturbed by this, and Wang Xiu has not been addicted to it.

I just go in there occasionally to relax.

After Gu Fenghou confirmed that Wang Xiu's practice was not disturbed, he did not interfere any more.

Gu Fenghou, as a teacher, didn't say anything, so it's even less likely that Anya would say anything.

But in the past six months, Wang Xiu has not been to the killing field once. All day long, he is either comprehending the laws in the Qianwu Secret Realm or practicing secret techniques in the virtual universe training field.

"Your Highness, Marquis Gu Feng will be very happy to see that you have made such great progress." Seeing that Wang Xiu's twenty-one phantoms had all disappeared not far away, An Ya immediately went up to greet him with a smile.

Wang Xiu, who had just figured out something that had puzzled him for a long time and couldn't help but excitedly verify it, saw Anya walking towards him and after hearing what the other party said, he couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

"Why, Your Highness doesn't believe me?" Seeing Wang Xiu shaking his head, An Ya couldn't help but said anxiously, "Your Highness is definitely one of the most outstanding geniuses in the Qianwu Secret Realm in history."

"In the Universe's Top Genius Competition half a year later, Your Highness will definitely be number one."

What Anya said just now was sincere.

Judging from Wang Xiu’s performance just now, there are more than ten thousand star-level geniuses in the entire Qianwu Secret Realm, and no one can compare with him.

Even in the history of Qianwu Secret Realm, there are few geniuses who can compare with Wang Xiu.

As for the Battle of the Top Geniuses in the Universe...An Ya shook his head in his heart. Even the first place winner of the previous Battle of the Top Geniuses in the Universe would probably not be a match for his own prince.

"Of course I believe you." Wang Xiu shook his head and explained, "The teacher will definitely be happy to see my progress."

"But I'm still a little short of first place in the Universe's Top Genius Competition."

"Your Highness is joking." An Ya said with a smile, "With your strength, even the first place winner of the last Universe Peak Genius Tournament is no match for your Highness."

"Last term?" Wang Xiu shook his head secretly.

With his own strength, if he had participated in the last Universe Top Genius Competition, he would indeed have won first place.

However, this year's battle of the top geniuses in the universe is different from the previous one.

But there is no need to say this to Anya.

Seeing Wang Xiu didn't speak, Anya wanted to say something. But the next moment, a voice suddenly interrupted their conversation: "What are you talking about?"

Wang Xiu and An Ya looked in the direction of the voice at the same time.

"teacher!"

"Lord Gu Fenghou!"

The voices of Wang Xiu and An Ya sounded at the same time.

"Yes." Gu Fenghou nodded gently to Anya, then smiled and looked at Wang Xiu, "Have you gained a lot in the past six months?"

Hearing Gu Fenghou's words, Anya suddenly felt happy.

Seeing Wang Xiu's great progress, Gu Fenghou must be delighted and would value Wang Xiu even more.

An Ya is the head of Wang Xiu's guards. He has been with Wang Xiu day and night for nearly four years and has a good understanding of Wang Xiu's personality and temper.

In Anya's opinion, Wang Xiu is definitely not that kind of cold-hearted person.

When Wang Xiu achieves success in the future, he will never forget his former leader.

Wang Xiu naturally didn't know that An Ya had thought so far ahead. At this moment, he looked at Gu Fenghou's slightly expectant eyes, smiled and nodded, "I have made some progress, but I still haven't fully understood the first set of swordsmanship in the "Floating Blood" secret book."

"Oh?" Gu Fenghou's eyes suddenly lit up.

He knew that his disciple was definitely not a boastful person. The reason why Wang Xiu dared to say this must be that he had made considerable progress.

As for what Wang Xiu said about still not being able to comprehend the first set of sword techniques in "Piao Xue", Gu Fenghou was not at all surprised.

On the contrary, he would be shocked if Wang Xiu said now that he had fully understood and mastered the first set of sword techniques in the "Floating Blood" secret book.

The one hundred and eight mysteries of the origin of space are not so easy to master, even if the mystery corresponding to the first set of swordsmanship in the "Floating Blood" secret book is the simplest of all the mysteries.

It is not something that can be mastered in a short period of time.

How long has it been since Wang Xiu started studying the "Floating Blood" secret book?

Even Lian Luo, the creator of the "Piaoxue" secret book, believed that one would be qualified if he could fully comprehend the first set of sword techniques in the "Piaoxue" secret book within twenty years.

And that was said in the context of Chaos City being able to comprehend the Chaos Monument.

Wang Xiu is not in Chaos City now, and there is no Chaos Monument to comprehend.

"Come on, come on, let me see what level you have reached now." Gu Fenghou impatiently pulled Wang Xiu's arm and walked towards the training ground not far away.

Wang Xiu couldn't help but feel a little amused when he saw this.

This is too hasty.

……

Virtual universe, inside the training ground.

Gu Fenghou was very excited as he looked at the twenty-one phantom bodies in front of him that were drawing tracks in the air.

He remembered that when he came half a year ago, Wang Xiu could only perform the Nine Phantom Bodies at most and could barely perform the second level of "Ten Thousand Shadows".

But in just half a year, the number of Wang Xiu's phantom bodies more than doubled, reaching a terrifying twenty-one phantom bodies.

This speed of progress is simply terrifying!
Not only that, Gu Fenghou could see that Wang Xiu's dodging trajectory was becoming more and more precise, and compared to before, there was a sense of beauty that was approaching "perfection".

This kind of beauty that approaches "perfection" may not seem like a big deal to others.

But in Gu Fenghou's opinion, this was the true reflection of Wang Xiu's understanding of the fundamental mysteries of the origin laws of space.

When Wang Xiu is able to leave truly "perfect" flight tracks in the air, it will mean that Wang Xiu has truly understood the first mystery of the law of the origin of space.

However, Gu Fenghou was also a little confused at this time. After all, he had seen Wang Xiu's progress before. Although it was not slow, it was not as fast as it is now.

"Wang Xiu, you can stop now." Gu Fenghou suddenly said.

Wow!
Wang Xiu suddenly appeared in front of Gu Fenghou, and the other twenty phantom bodies immediately disappeared.

"Teacher." Wang Xiu saluted with a smile, then looked at Gu Fenghou, waiting for comments.

"Not bad." Gu Fenghou smiled and nodded, then asked casually, "You have made great progress in the past six months, even more than in the past three and a half years."

"I want to hear how you did it."

After saying that, Gu Fenghou stared at Wang Xiu.

Although great progress is a good thing, Gu Fenghou is also afraid that Wang Xiu will go astray.

The universe is extremely vast, and it contains many natural treasures that can help people comprehend the laws of nature.

Some of these treasures are harmless.

But some of them are based on the premise of exploiting potential.

Although Wang Xiu was in the Qianwu Secret Realm, it was impossible for him to come into contact with these things.

But everything is possible.

Previously, Wang Xiu had not made smooth progress in comprehending the mysteries of the origin laws of space, and Gu Fenghou had seen all of this.

But he had no choice. There were rare treasures that could safely and harmlessly assist in comprehending the laws, but those were not something that Gu Fenghou could get.

Even if he could get it for Wang Xiu, he would not choose to give it to Wang Xiu.

Ultimately, you can only rely on yourself to comprehend the laws of nature. You won't get far by relying on external things.

Wang Xiu was also a little stunned when he heard Gu Fenghou's words. Looking at Gu Fenghou's slightly serious expression, he quickly understood what the other party was worried about, and then explained with a wry smile:
"Teacher, half a year ago, I met a star-level genius from the Noah Universe Country in the killing field decisive battle space."

"I lost that battle, and I lost miserably."

After saying that, Wang Xiu looked at Gu Fenghou and observed the expression on his face.

Wang Xiu had prepared early on to attribute his rapid improvement in strength to Bolan. After all, he was now in the Qianwu Secret Realm and had a special teacher to teach him, which was different from being on Earth.

When on Earth, Wang Xiu didn't need to explain to anyone.

Hong and Luo Feng wouldn't suspect anything.

Even if he had doubts, they were just doubts in his heart and would not cause any harm to Wang Xiu.

But it’s different in the Qianwu Secret Realm.

Wang Xiu had to make up a suitable reason for himself.

After suffering a great defeat, he reflected deeply on the pain and had an epiphany, which is a good reason for his strength to increase greatly.

And it also conforms to the basic cognition of most people in this world.

After all, there are countless geniuses in history whose strength improved by leaps and bounds after being defeated in this way.

"You lost? And you lost miserably?" Seeing that Gu Fenghou was indeed interested in his words, Wang Xiu felt relieved and immediately told him every detail of the battle between him and Bolan.

When Wang Xiu finished speaking, the entire training ground fell into a long silence.

Even Gu Fenghou, whose psychological threshold was raised very high because of Wang Xiu's appearance, was still shocked by the genius named "Jueying" mentioned by Wang Xiu.

"Thousands of phantom bodies... The other party's talent in the laws of the origin of space may have surpassed some realm masters." Gu Fenghou murmured in his heart.

Soon, Gu Fenghou reacted and looked at his calm disciple in front of him with a slightly complicated expression.

People like Wang Xiu, who have never experienced failure, will usually be depressed for a while after their first major defeat, even if they can eventually pick themselves up again.

But his disciple was not discouraged at all. Instead, he was inspired to fight hard and made such great progress in just half a year.

"Good job." Gu Fenghou was extremely determined at this moment. With the character of his disciple and his talent, as long as he did not die halfway, his future achievements would surely be extremely brilliant.
