Chapter 1006: Interstellar Garden
Su Ping went to a nursing pen with a lot of spiritual power. He felt that spiritual power wasn’t as effective as deity aura, but it was still three times as effective as astral power.
Spiritual power had some special effects. For example, it could increase one’s power of understanding.
However, the power would have to be absorbed for a long time.
Su Ping took out the Fruit of Epiphany and swallowed it. Then, he focused his attention on grasping the law of destruction.
He intended to fully master the law of destruction with the Fruit of Epiphany. Then, he could master the law of vitality with the seventh Astral Painting.
Destruction…
The aggressive power of the first Astral Painting is one type of destruction.
It destroys and ruins everything. Complete destruction is not another form of rebirth. Destruction is not the transition between life and death, but that found between existence and nothingness.
Time flew.
Su Ping cultivated inside the nursing pen, completely devoted. The room was fully closed; nobody could enter without his permission.
A lot of thoughts popped up in Su Ping’s head thanks to the amazing buff caused by the fruit. There seemed to be a special aura around him, which allowed him to perceive many laws in nature and understand many things that would otherwise escape his attention.
Su Ping’s cultivation came to an end after a few days passed.
His eyes became even darker; they were like the tranquil stars in the night sky.
“Destruction…”
Su Ping gathered the spiritual power around him on his fingertip. Then, the gathered spiritual power was consolidated and annihilated into nothingness.
Even the conservation of energy had been broken by the law of destruction!
The conversation of energy applies everywhere in the universe, but the law of destruction ruins its root. It cannot be found, not even in the ninth space. It’s literal destruction!
Suddenly, an idea occurred to Su Ping. If anyone fully mastered the law of destruction and then continuously annihilated all energy and matter in the universe, would the entire universe disappear in the end?
It’s theoretically possible. I can completely destroy a planet within a day, considering my current power. Su Ping’s eyes glittered. However, the universe is too big and there are countless planets in every galaxy, not to mention the star zones.
However, if anyone is strong enough to destroy one solar system at a time, they could exterminate the universe sooner or later.
I’m not the only person who has mastered the law of destruction. However, if anyone does it, they would catch a lot of attention. The Celestial State experts wouldn’t let them go.
Su Ping’s awe for cultivators grew even more. His fear also grew as he grasped more and more strength. His own strength was already much more powerful than nuclear weapons. He found it hard to imagine what Ancestral Gods were capable of.
The hole that the Twilight Deity King blocked with his body… The finger that turned into a tower in the Valiant Academy. Whatever they fought might be creatures that tried to do unpardonable things with their power.
Su Ping’s eyes glittered. He was even more determined to rise to higher levels. There had been destructive wars even in the Archean Divinity; he didn’t want to be as helpless as he had been when he faced the Lord of Deep Caves on the Blue Planet.
He withdrew the destructive power on his fingertip, then left the nursing pen; it was nighttime. Su Ping saw Joanna and Green Lady in the lobby; they told him that he had stayed in seclusion for five days.
“The gala the Loulan family mentioned is going to take place soon. I don’t know what the Sea of Illusions is. Let me find out.” Su Ping’s interest was piqued by the Sea of Illusions. There were too many secrets in the universe; Su Ping wanted to know what had happened in the past.
He took out his phone, found Loulan Feng’s number and informed him that he was going to pay them a visit.
Loulan Feng was thrilled to hear that Su Ping was willing to go there. He accepted Su Ping’s request and invited him to take his family’s spaceship.
“Is the spaceship right here on Rhea?” Su Ping was surprised.
Fearing misunderstandings, Loulan Feng quickly replied, “Mr. Su, we certainly have to make sure that your life is comfortable, since you agreed to help the Loulan family. This spaceship is for your own use. I can ask the crew to pick you up at your store immediately.”
“Okay.” Su Ping asked, “Is the Sea of Illusions open yet?”
“Not yet. The gala in our estate has yet to start. We’ll be able to arrive in time if we leave right now, we’ll be able to attend it in time. We can make arrangements if you want to visit the Sea of Illusions afterwards,” said Loulan Feng with a smile.
Su Ping nodded. “Fine. I can go right now.”
“Sure.”
A spaceship arrived in the sky above the store just a minute later.
Su Ping informed Joanna, Green Lady and Tang Ruyan of his visit to the Loulan family, and asked them to take care of the store.
They were already used to Su Ping being away, and didn’t show any reaction. Even Tang Ruyan was also too devoted to training to say anything. She had been making fast progress because of the skills she had learned in the Heaven Path Institute.
She knew she had to become stronger in order to keep up with Su Ping.
Once he left the store, Su Ping sensed something and looked at the dragon statue by the door. The fat Lightning Rat was still crouching there; it squinted at him, then lazily moved its eyes away to the street.
That guy…
Su Ping shook his head. The Lightning Rat, the first pet he ever trained, had gone to the primordial cultivation sites and should have gained enough intelligence to know that its master—the cute girl named Su Yanying—was already gone and would never come back. However, waiting seemed to have become a habit.
“I’ll find you a new master,” Su Ping said.
He had always had special feelings for the naughty, dirty little creature. After all, it was the first pet he had ever trained.
The Lightning Rat glanced at him after hearing what Su Ping said, then gazed at the street again. There were many customers waiting in line outside the store, but none was the one it had been waiting for.
Su Ping shook his head, then greeted customers who were still waiting at night. After that he flashed toward the spaceship in the sky.
The spaceship’s hatch was then opened. Two middle-aged Star Lords with the semblance of guards flanked the entrance. They respectfully said to Su Ping, “Mr. Su, this way please.”
Once entering the spaceship, Su Ping asked, “How long will the trip to the Loulans take?”
“Around four days.”
“Got it.”
Su Ping then asked, “Is there a training room in the spaceship?”
“Yes.” The two men were about to introduce the top amenities found inside so he could enjoy himself, but they smartly avoided the subject since he had directly asked for a place to cultivate. They were also admiring Su Ping’s diligence.
Su Ping dismissed them once they reached the room; he then entered the training room and took out materials from his storage.
The enhancement of the astral array isn’t as good as my master’s, but not too bad. Su Ping sat cross-legged and cultivated on the top level of the training room.
Abundantly nutritious tonics were absorbed and transformed into astral power.
The astral power was then absorbed by the vortexes deep inside his astral oceans and transformed into deity aura.
While absorbing and cultivating, Su Ping redistributed the deity aura and condensed stars in his body.
He was planning to condensed the seventh Astral Painting faster.
It’s becoming more difficult to complete the Astral Paintings. The sixth Astral Painting is about time, the seventh is about vitality, the eighth is about the world, but the ninth is unknown.
My combat ability will probably have a qualitative change by the time I condense all the nine Astral Paintings.
Time flew quickly. Su Ping absorbed many rare medicines during this time. His cultivation advanced at a quick speed thanks to the enhancement of the astral array.
Normal cultivators could have advanced from the Star State to the Star Lord State after having that many medicines.
And yet, Su Ping had only condensed two stars.
I’ve only condensed two stars in four days; the seventh Astral Painting requires more than fifty of them. The resources I need are truly terrifying. Su Ping gave a slight head shake. It would be impossible for normal cultivators to practice the technique even if they had it.
Seeing him exit the training room, a Star Lord by the door quickly said, “Mr. Su, we’re arriving at the Alan Star Gate.”
“The Alan Star Gate?”
“It’s a Star Gate that the Loulan family set up at the edge of our solar system. Beyond the star gate is our interstellar garden; the entire planetary system belongs to us,” said the middle-aged man, showing respect and a sense of pride.
Being one of the biggest families in the universe, the Loulans had directly and indirectly ended up controlling a much bigger land. However, that interstellar garden completely belonged to the family; all of its residents were family members.
Yes, the Loulans already had enough population to occupy a planetary system.
They had achieved it without even counting the family branches.
The Loulan family had a long history and a huge population; the Loulan Planetary System was their home.
Su Ping remained silent. He looked at the splendid gate outside of the spaceship, which was completely made of energy. There was a teleportation vortex at the center of the gate. The gate had equally massive space stations on both sides.
The most eye-catching point of all was the stone foundation underneath the gate that suppressed three dragons. Each of them was thousands of meters long, indicating that they were most likely Ascendant State beasts!
The three dragons were already dead, but their bodies were absolutely intact. They looked like statues.
“How splendid.” Su Ping nodded.
Once hearing that, the middle-aged man put on a smile. “You’re being too kind, Mr. Su. This cannot possibly compare to the Celestial Court.”
Su Ping merely glanced at him, not saying a word.
The middle-aged man suddenly realized that he had misspoken; he shouldn’t have tried to make comparisons.
The Loulans didn’t have a Celestial expert, even though they did have Celestial State friends. That was their reason for needing to befriend as many Celestials as possible. It would definitely be insensible to infuriate any of them. Even though they had a tremendous number of Ascendants, their numbers would sharply decline if they ever made an enemy out of a Celestial.
The middle-aged man was pale-faced; he peeped at Su Ping, and was secretly relieved to find that Su Ping didn’t seem to be offended.
Soon after, the spaceship sailed through the star gate.
Beyond the gate was a splendid universe with countless stars. The spaceship jumped continuously and reached the most splendid part.
There were altogether seven planets in the system; six of them surrounded the last one. Above the seven planets was a sun.
The spaceship flew to the biggest planet at the center. There was another spaceship outside the planet; it decelerated behind many other spaceships waiting to land on the planet.
Then, Su Ping’s spaceship flew right next to the spaceship’s queue.
“Mr. Su, this way please.”
The spaceship passed through the special channel. Its door was opened, and all the crew members approached Su Ping. The Star Lord at the lead said to Su Ping respectfully, “This spaceship cannot land on the planet. Please forgive us. I’ve sent word of your arrival; someone will come to pick you up.”
Su Ping nodded.
All of them left the spaceship. Soon, a small aircraft that looked like a boat reached them, and a familiar man walked out. He was none other than Loulan Feng.
Loulan Feng was excited to see Su Ping and offered his greeting. “Mr. Su, I hope the journey wasn’t too exhausting.”
Seeing how warm and courteous he was, Su Ping once again experienced the charm that came with being a genius. He nodded. “Thank you for picking me up.”
“Mr. Su, you must be tired. I’ll take you to your residence first,” said Loulan Feng with a smile.
Su Ping was lost for words. That spaceship was too well equipped to make him feel the least bit tired. He asked, “When will the gala you mentioned start? How long do I have to wait before I can enter the Sea of Illusions?”
“Well…” Obviously, Loulan Feng didn’t expect Su Ping to be that blunt. But he soon recovered and smiled. “Probably two weeks. A lot of amazing things will happen; you won’t get bored, Mr. Su.”
“Two weeks…” Su Ping thought for a moment, then asked, “Do you have any places for training?”
