Permanent Martial Arts - Chapter 718
718 Awaken
In the silent and dark cosmos, there would never be a lack of adventurous cultivators taking risks.
Swoosh.
There were only two cultivators in a spaceship, a man and a woman, who both appeared to be planetary lifeforms. The two of them were adventuring together in the universe.
“This is the most peripheral area of the Dark Galaxy. It’s really empty. There’s not even a planet,” The male cultivator lamented.
!!
“Hmm, it’s indeed a little strange. Is there any danger here?”
The female cultivator was a little vigilant. When they roamed the universe, they had also encountered many dangers, but they turned misfortunes into blessings every time, and their strength actually improved further.
It was how the two of them could continue to venture in the universe.
“The Dark Galaxy is a chaotic region to begin with. I heard that many fiends fled to the Dark Galaxy after being hunted down by the Universe Alliance. Hence, unexpected situations can occur at any time. However, we are both planetary lifeforms, and we are only one step away from becoming advanced planetary lifeforms. As long as we are careful, we won’t be in danger,” The male cultivator said confidently.
Actually, it was not that they were powerful, but that they had an artifact. Even advanced planetary lifeforms would find it difficult to kill them. Relying on this artifact, the two of them had averted countless dangers.
“Alas, I heard that the Universe Alliance is really rich and powerful, especially that Supreme Grand Emperor. He’s simply a legend in the universe. Let’s make a trip to the Universe Alliance when we have time.”
The female cultivator looked forward to it. Recently, the Universe Alliance had become famous in the universe. Not only did many Divine Kings join, there were even two Divine Venerables who joined it.
Moreover, the Alliance Leader happened to be a Grand Emperor, but this Grand Emperor was a legend in the universe. No Divine King was unconvinced about his status.
Both of them were very curious about the Universe Alliance. Since it was a cosmic adventure, how could they not visit the Universe Alliance to take a look?
“All right, after we leave the Dark Galaxy, we’ll go to the Universe Alliance Headquarters to take a look.”
The male cultivator nodded as well. He turned to look at the female cultivator, unable to conceal a trace of admiration in his eyes.
“Eh, what’s that?
Suddenly, the female cultivator’s eyes lit up. She saw that there seemed to be a meteor lying across the cosmos.
“A meteor? No, it doesn’t seem to be a meteor.”
The male cultivator sensed for a while and also felt that something was amiss. This meteor was floating quietly in the cosmos, but the strange thing was that the small meteor was not attracted by the gravity of the surrounding planets at all.
This was very strange. It violated the law of cosmic celestial bodies.
“Let’s get closer and take a look.”
The two of them approached in the spaceship, and the male cultivator made a grabbing motion.
“Hmm?”
The male cultivator’s expression changed slightly. He could not grab it. He was a dignified planetary cultivator, but he could not grab it.
“Rise!”
The male cultivator felt that something was amiss. His huge hand immediately transformed, unleashing a portion of his combat body as he grabbed towards the meteor again. This time, forget about a mere metoer, it could even shake a planet.
However, the outcome was the same. The meteor remained motionless.
“What’s going on?”
The female cultivator also flew out and sensed something unusual.
“Perhaps it’s an artifact!”
There was a look of excitement on the male cultivator’s face. It was not too unbelievable to accidentally pick up an artifact in the vast universe. There must be something strange about a mere meteor that even a planetary cultivator like him could not move.
“Let’s try together.”
Hence, the two of them simply used their combat bodies and grabbed towards the meteor together.
Crunch.
The two of them grabbed the meteor together, but it still did not move. However, cracks appeared on the surface of the meteor at once. More and more cracks appeared, until they were dense as spiderwebs.
Boom.
The meteor shook slightly, and the cracks disappeared instantly. However, the meteor had already transformed into a man. His eyes were closed as he floated quietly in the cosmos.
“This is…?”
The two cultivators’ mouths fell open. They did not expect there to be a cultivator inside the meteor. Moreover, someone who could cultivate in the cosmos must be a very powerful cultivator.
For a moment, the two of them were immediately on guard.
“We did not know that Senior was cultivating here. Please forgive us for the offense!” The male cultivator said respectfully.
Swoosh.
The mysterious cultivator in the cosmos suddenly opened his eyes. They seemed to be brighter than starlight, but they quickly dimmed and finally returned to normal.
“You are the ones who woke me up?”
“Senior, please forgive us. We didn’t know that you were cultivating here.”
The two of them looked very nervous.
“There’s no need to be nervous. How much time has passed? Oh, it’s already exceeded 100 million years. Has it already been so long?”
The mysterious cultivator seemed to be muttering to himself.
After a long while, the mysterious cultivator turned around and looked at the two nervous cultivators. He said calmly, “The two of you awakened me. That is fate. I will grant you supreme glory.”
The two of their eyes lit up. This senior seemed to be in a deep slumber. Could they have obtained the favor of this senior by awakening him?
At this thought, the two of them hurriedly thanked him. “Thank you, Senior.”
A smile appeared on the mysterious cultivator’s lips. Then, he said with a smile, “I bestow upon you the supreme glory—fusion!”
“Hmm?”
The two cultivators were slightly stunned, but as soon as the mysterious cultivator finished speaking, the two cultivators immediately felt the life force in their bodies draining rapidly. They felt unprecedentedly weak, but when they tried to struggle, they could not even move.
“S-Senior…”
The two of them were incomparably frightened. However, it was useless. In just the span of a few breaths, the two cultivators lost all signs of vitality, and their bodies were reduced into cosmic dust.
“What a wonderful life force. A hundred million years have passed. It’s about time to reap the seed I planted back. I hope it won’t disappoint me this time. I’m just a little bit away from complete consummation…”
The mysterious cultivator stood up and stepped into the spatial passage. He disappeared without a trace, as if he had never existed.
In the silent cosmos, only the spaceship was left floating alone in the dark universe.
…
“I’m still a little short.”
In the secret chamber of the Universe Alliance, Lin Feng was frowning deeply.
Ever since he sent the Divine Venerable Pelagios and Divine Venerable Celestial Eye away, he had begun seclusion. He wanted to grasp the trace of epiphany he had sensed from the Principle of Life back then.
He had a vague feeling that he had reached the critical point, but he could not grasp it. It was as if something was missing.
Hence, Lin Feng spent the entire three months in the secret chamber, trying to grasp that trace of inspiration. However, as time passed, that trace of inspiration gradually faded.
If he could not grasp that trace of inspiration soon, all his efforts would be in vain. There was no knowing how long it would take before he had another chance to comprehend the Principle of Life.
“The time is still too short. If I had studied the Eye of the Universe for a while longer and sensed the Principle of Life more, I might have been able to comprehend the Principle of Life!”
Lin Feng sighed. He felt that it was a pity. He was so close. If the inspiration dissipated completely, he would be a little unwilling to accept it. If he could sense the Principle of Life a little more, he might be able to grasp that inspiration and comprehend the Principle of Life.
The current Lin Feng’s comprehension of the Principle of Life had already reached a critical point, but he just could not break through the critical point, and thus could never comprehend the Principle of Life.
That was, unless the Eye of the Universe could appear again, and he could sense the Principle of Life again.
“Hmm? Having the Eye of the Universe appear again?”
Suddenly, Lin Feng’s eyes lit up, and he had a vague idea.
