Chapter 48 The Genius War is over, the promise of the Lord of Qianwu
It feels good to pretend to be cool, but you will end up in the crematorium afterwards.
After Rong Jun slashed out the shocking "Blade of Will" in the virtual universe for the second time, he was kicked out of the virtual universe again.
Compared to the first time, he had obviously adapted a lot, at least he didn't faint directly anymore. But the feeling of weakness and powerlessness was still unavoidable.
At this moment, Rong Jun felt as if his soul was being oppressed by a heavy and towering mountain, and even breathing seemed laborious.
This fatigue does not come from physical exhaustion, but from inner powerlessness and confusion of will.
The strength of will and spirit is drained, thinking becomes slow, and even simple decisions become difficult.
In serious cases, people may even lose interest in things they were once passionate about and feel indifferent to the world around them.
This strange feeling of exhaustion was also accompanied by a sense of loneliness, as if I were trapped in a dark corner with nowhere to escape.
For those with weak wills, this kind of fatigue is enough to make them lose hope in life and even develop a feeling of world-weariness.
Fortunately, Rong Jun has lived two lives and has been tempered over the past few years, so he can maintain rational thinking.
Rong Jun calculated that once he broke through to the cosmic level, this negative state caused by using the "Blade of Will" would improve.
Back to reality, Rong Jun, who was soaking in nutrient solution, continued to watch the follow-up events of the Peak Genius Battle through Xiao Ai's projection.
Next to him was the lovely little Nuonuo, who was lying on the nutrition cabin, watching with him.
In the projection image, 999 geniuses and 1008 powerful immortals were standing in the central square listening to the Nine Swords Master speak.
The final ranking of the top five reincarnation battles has been announced.
Rong Jun, won all four games, the undisputed first!
Bolan won three games and lost one, and won the second place. The only game he lost was to Rong Jun, and he was killed instantly with one strike!
Luo Feng, two wins and two losses, finished third! He lost to Rong Jun and Bo Lan, one was unmatched, and the other had a swordsmanship that was too fast and too fierce.
Mo Jiang and Qianshui siblings were ranked fourth and fifth respectively.
-
"First place Rong Jun, second place Bo Lan, third place Luo Feng, from today on you will become one of the core disciples of the Virtual Universe Company, members of the 'Original Secret Realm'. I hope that the three of you will continue to work hard and scale new heights in the days ahead."
"Third to tenth, General Mo, Qianshui, Wuka, Lanslo, Longyun, Aichen, and Opatra, congratulations on becoming the core members of the Virtual Universe Company's 'Taichu Secret Realm'."
"From 11th to 100th..."
"From the one hundred and first to the thousandth..."
"After layers of screening, the core members of this year's Universe Peak Genius Selection Tournament have been finalized. Thus, this Peak Genius Tournament has come to a successful conclusion!"
The face of the Nine Swords Master in the green battle robe was filled with a satisfied smile.
He looked around and said in a vigorous voice, "You have demonstrated extraordinary strength and potential. I believe that in the next tens of thousands or millions of years, many powerful people who will be famous throughout the universe will emerge from among you."
No one spoke, but everyone knew that the words of the Nine Swords Master were more directed at Rong Jun.
Of course, Bolan also has great potential, and although Luo Feng's chance is smaller, it cannot be ruled out.
As for the rest, based on past experience, most people end up in obscurity.
"Later, we will have someone contact you and take you to our virtual universe company's all-universe headquarters to assemble, and then go to the 'initial universe' together." The Nine Swords Reverend continued.
“From now on, you will embark on an extraordinary path.
We at Virtual Universe will do our best to provide you with support and assistance.
But how far you can go in the end, whether you become a super being that shakes the universe, or just an ordinary strong man, or fall halfway, it all depends on you. "
Speaking of this, the Nine Swords Master suddenly paused, and then continued: "Here I want to give you a sentence, 'The stars will eventually shine, hold on to your dreams and cross the sea of stars.'
This universe is far from being as safe as you think.
The existence of the original Trial Tower is intended to make you deeply aware that there are still countless forces in the outside world coveting the territory of our human race.
Your road to becoming a strong person has just begun!
I hope that what I just said can inspire you to work hard, because the future of humanity will ultimately depend on you!"
The voice of the Nine Swords Master echoed in everyone's mind.
As the words of the Nine Swords Master fell, this genius battle officially came to an end.
-
The battle of geniuses came to an end, and both the renowned Nine Swords Master and the other 1008 powerful immortal beings left one after another.
Luo Feng and the other 999 young people were not in a hurry to leave, because a staff member came forward and informed them in time: "Please stay for a moment. There are still a few details to discuss with you about taking you to the headquarters of my virtual universe company."
"Where is Rong Jun? He is the first place. What should we do if he is not here?" Ken McGee asked with a little concern.
As soon as these words came out, all the geniuses present looked at the young staff member.
The man felt his scalp tingling, but he quickly replied: "Please rest assured, sir. The Nine Swords Master has personally instructed that we will contact him directly later."
-
In fact, the last part of the content will not be presented in the live broadcast to the 1008 Universe Country, but it is a privilege opened exclusively for him by Master Rong Jun, the Nine Swords Master.
"Phew...it's finally over!"
Although the genius battle experienced some twists and turns, it was generally smooth, and he also found a cheap master.
Rong Jun's original plan was successfully realized after successfully obtaining a place in the original secret realm.
However, it seems that under his influence, Luo Feng's strength has also improved significantly compared to the same period.
In addition, Hong also successfully became a member of the Secret Realm of Heaven and Earth, and the others also made some progress, and their overall strength seemed to be stronger than the original history.
"Uncle, are you okay?"
Xiao Nuonuo gently lifted up her sleeves and was massaging Rong Jun's swollen scalp.
Although her little hands were tender, they seemed to contain some kind of magic, which brought a moment of peace to Rong Jun's tired heart.
It is said that this is the secret method that Xiao Nuonuo learned after specifically asking Ruolan.
"I'm fine, you can try harder." Rong Jun had a splitting headache, and it was rare for him to close his eyes and enjoy the comfort.
"Uncle, are you going to the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company? Will we not be able to see each other for a long time?" There was some reluctance in Xiao Nuonuo's voice.
Rong Jun rubbed Xiao Nuonuo's head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Xiao Nuonuo. We can meet in the virtual universe."
Xiao Nuonuo widened her eyes and pursed her lips, hesitating for a moment: "But, if you have a headache next time and I'm not by your side, what should I do?"
Rong Jun was stunned.
-
night.
In the Qianwu Universe, the night sky in the White Star District is exceptionally bright. The bright moonlight shines through the thin clouds and softly falls into the courtyard, making it seem like a dream.
In the courtyard, Ruolan, dressed in a long gauze gown, elegantly accompanied Rong Jun, who was dressed in black, as they sat in front of an open-air rattan table.
The two of them tasted the White Star Moon Dew, which is unique to the White Star District of the Qianwu Universe. White Star Moon Dew is a unique drink from the White Star District of the Qianwu Universe, and its method of making is quite similar to the milk tea in his previous life.
However, its charm goes far beyond this.
Due to the different breeding methods and locations of white star barnacles, the taste of White Star Moon Dew varies greatly. When paired with different condiments, it is said that some fanatical enthusiasts have even developed billions of different flavor variations.
What is even more amazing is that it also has the magical effect of relaxing the mind, relieving stress, improving mental state and enhancing the strength of cosmic-level warriors or spiritualists.
Because of its unique taste and efficacy, although its strength-enhancing effect is mainly aimed at cosmic-level strongmen, the White Star Moonlight Dew is still loved by many domain masters, world masters and even immortal beings.
Even people from other cosmic countries come here just to taste a cup.
However, due to limited production and high market demand, people without a certain background and status simply cannot buy this precious drink.
However, for Rong Jun, this was not a problem at all.
Not only can he enjoy the White Star Moon Dew to his heart's content, he can even use it for bathing and swimming.
Three days ago, the entire Baixing District was generously given to him by the Lord of Qianwu. As the master of this land, the Baixing Moonlight Dew was naturally available to him for him to enjoy to his heart's content.
Rong Jun picked up a cup of moon dew and stared at the sky quietly, his eyes focused on the bright moon.
That is the origin of White Star Moon Dew. There is no other place in the entire universe that can cultivate White Star Barnacles with such a unique flavor.
For ordinary people, owning a White Star Zone that is thousands of times larger than the Milky Way is undoubtedly an immeasurable wealth, enough for them to live a life of plenty for hundreds of lifetimes and even for their descendants.
However, Rong Jun knew very well that this seemingly priceless starry sky was actually worthless in his eyes.
This does not mean that the Lord of Qianwu Kingdom is stingy. In fact, any immortal marquis will cherish this star field in the core area of Qianwu Universe Kingdom.
But Rong Jun's perspective is different from others. He knows that the value of this star field is worthless in the wider universe.
To put it bluntly, even if you sell all of this star field, you won’t be able to exchange for a single treasure point.
"You're leaving tomorrow. Don't you plan to say hello to everyone?" Ruolan stood up, picked up a cup of Moonlight Dew, took a sip and asked.
"Forget it, there's nothing to say." Rong Jun shook his head slightly. He understood that the "everyone" Ruolan mentioned did not refer to the slaves he rescued, but specifically Xiao Nuonuo.
Ever since coming to this universe, Rong Jun has always had a faint and complex emotion in his heart towards everything.
Although he has lived here for four or five years, to him he is more of a passer-by.
His sights had long been cast towards the vast ocean of the universe and even the continent of origin.
Xiao Nuonuo, the little girl from the Velvet Rabbit tribe who always follows him and calls him "Uncle" in her childish voice, is his only concern on this planet.
But Rong Jun knew that he couldn't stay for her.
Besides, the other party is now under Ruolan's care, so he doesn't have to worry about anything.
Everyone has his own path. He has to find his own path, and Xiao Nuonuo naturally has to find his own path as well.
"Lady Ruolan! There's no point in saying hello again. Besides, we can still meet in the virtual universe." Rong Jun didn't dwell on these trivial matters too much.
His goal has always been firm.
Ruolan nodded slightly and glanced at him approvingly.
In fact, if you think about it, if Rong Jun's will was so easily shaken, he wouldn't have been able to make such an amazing strike.
-
The sky was turning pale, and in the darkness before dawn, the starry sky in the White Star District became brighter and brighter, as if countless gems were inlaid in the endless night.
Rong Jun put down the cup in his hand, looked at the deep universe in the distance, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart.
Tomorrow morning he will board the spaceship and head to the long-awaited Chaos City.
Turning to look at Ruolan, she was wearing a thin gauze that could hardly conceal her graceful figure. The silk gown fit her body tightly, outlining the graceful curves of her upper body, and a hint of green lace could be seen through the gauze.
The lower body is covered with a layer of white jade-like scales, and the round snake tail is different from that of ordinary people, vigorous and powerful. Not only does it not make people feel scared, but it adds a touch of mysterious exotic color, making people can't help but find out.
Rong Jun's eyes were full of gratitude and respect.
Without the other party's companionship over the years, his achievements would never have reached this level, and he would have even died at the hands of that green-skinned old man long ago.
"Lady Ruolan, thank you." Rong Jun said sincerely, his voice full of sincerity.
Ruolan was startled, then smiled slightly and fiddled with the snake's tail. "No need to thank me, I'm just following orders."
Ruolan really didn't care. For an immortal, life is infinite and a few years is just a blink of an eye.
But to be honest, Rong Jun did amaze her.
Not to mention her, even Lord Thirteen and King Qianwu did not expect that the other party would have such talent.
But there is one thing she didn't say, suppressing one's strength to serve as a sparring partner is not something that ordinary people would do!
Especially when facing an unparalleled genius, the body is not affected, but the mind is exhausted.
Especially when she saw the other party easily killing someone of the same level as her, she always felt like a waste.
In fact, Ruolan never told this to herself that the strength she finally displayed was not something she had ever comprehended at the stellar or cosmic level.
Even the Domain Lord level is difficult enough...
Rong Jun smiled and said, "Then I'll leave Xiao Nuonuo and the others to you from now on!"
Ruolan didn't care, but Rongjun kept some things in mind.
Ruolan was not just carrying out missions. Over the years, in order to cooperate with him in honing herself, she always deliberately suppressed her strength to the same level and gave it her all during the battle.
Obviously, he could defeat him easily, but Ruolan chose to take great pains to help him hone his fighting skills and even taught him the laws of space. Could such dedication be explained by just following orders?
He is looking down from a high vantage point, not standing on the other person's shoulders, and with the other party's painstaking cooperation, his future path will definitely be more tortuous.
-
As the two chatted, dawn gradually broke.
"Ok?"
Rong Jun suddenly turned his head and locked his gaze in the distance. He saw a dark, ancient sword-like spaceship slowly descending from the sky, exuding an ancient atmosphere.
Rong Jun turned to Ruolan and said, "Lady Ruolan, I have to go. In the days ahead, I'll leave the White Star District and Xiao Nuonuo to you."
The King of Qianwu was indeed generous. Not only did he give the White Star District to Rong Jun, he also assisted in the management of this area.
And Ruolan was also appointed by him as the garrison immortal in this area.
Moreover, the King of Qianwu also promised that at the end of Rongjun’s thirty years, there would be an unexpected surprise through the giant axe or the ninth bridge to heaven in the universe.
Knowing that the King of Qianwu was heavily in debt, Rong Jun didn't have high expectations.
However, because the other party's requirements were quite high, he couldn't figure out what the little surprise was for a moment.
Of course, if a genius who appears once in millions of years cannot do this, then it can only be said that he does not deserve the title.
"When you arrive in Chaos City, you must be extra careful." Although she had already said it once, Ruolan still couldn't help but remind him.
Rong Jun nodded, took one last glance at a thin figure in the courtyard, and flew straight towards the quaint spaceship.
Looking at Rong Jun's departing back, Ruolan sighed softly, knowing in her heart that the next time the two met, their positions would be reversed!
At that time, she will have to address him respectfully as His Highness Rong Jun!
