Chapter 381 Capturing the Servant!
"Unfortunately, the Supreme Spirit King's strength is too weak. If a Venerable or even a Universe Lord were to use this Heart of Time, the energy absorbed would be completely different!"
The Heart of Time, when used by different people, has the same effect of increasing the power by 100,000 times. However, even if the speed at which an immortal absorbs the ocean of laws increases by 100,000 times, it is still far inferior to that of a Venerable, let alone a Lord of the Universe.
"I need to find a way to capture a few servants. The Supreme Spirit King can't just sit still forever and absorb the energy from the ocean of primordial laws of the universe for me!"
Now that his inner desires had been fulfilled, Zhou Ze no longer hesitated and immediately sent a weaker clone to the outer battlefield to capture a stronger alien race to enslave.
"First, find a King-level Immortal with strong genes to use for now. When the Primal Star Wars come, try to get a stronger Venerable, or even a Universe Lord!"
Zhou Ze opened his eyes and stopped, while the Extreme Spirit King opposite him, sensing Zhou Ze's movement, also opened his eyes and stopped communicating with the ocean of laws.
"Alright, that's enough for now, let's go back," Zhou Ze said casually.
The Supreme Spirit King consciously severed his connection with the top-tier primordial treasure and returned it to Zhou Ze.
Back at his residence in Chaos City, Zhou Ze gave the Extreme Spirit King some more pointers and said, "Extreme Spirit, you are now only one step away from becoming a Venerable. It won't be long before you become one!"
"Thank you, Holy Master!"
The Supreme Spirit King bowed respectfully. Logically speaking, a being of the Supreme Spirit King's stature would not need to perform such a grand ceremony; a slight bow would suffice. His actions were undoubtedly out of heartfelt gratitude and respect.
Zhou Ze smiled slightly and said, "However, you have two choices. One choice is to break through to the Venerable realm, and the other choice is to stop comprehending the Law of Time and turn to the Law of Space. Anyway, your lifespan is infinite. Once you have studied the Law of Space enough, you can break through to the Venerable realm."
"Otherwise, once you break through to the Venerable realm, your divine power will transform into a Time God Body, making it very difficult to comprehend the laws of space."
"Of course, I was just suggesting something. You've stayed at the Immortal King level for so many years, so it's understandable that you're eager to become a Venerable. I was just suggesting something; I never force anyone, including my disciples!"
The Supreme Spirit King fell silent, pondered for a long while, and then said seriously, "Holy Master, I still want to break through to the Venerable realm as soon as possible. Only in this way can I gain the respect of the clan and obtain more resources. I am used to taking it one step at a time."
Zhou Ze felt no dissatisfaction with the Extreme Spirit King's idea; he simply smiled and asked, "Are you sure?"
The Supreme Spirit King nodded vigorously: "Yes, there are too few Lords of the Universe. I'm already hoping to become a Venerable, let alone dream of ascending to the heavens in one go. If I miss this opportunity, I might not even be able to break through to the Venerable realm. It would be a huge loss!"
Zhou Ze smiled. It seemed that the Extreme Spirit King didn't have confidence in him. But that made sense, since he knew that his guidance had a cheat-like advantage, while others didn't.
If you miss the chance to become a Venerable One, it will take thousands or even tens of thousands of years to seize it again. This is common knowledge in the universe. After all, spiritual light doesn't come often, and many people who become Kings and Immortals may only appear once in their lifetime.
"Hmm, taking it easy like this is fine too."
Zhou Ze didn't try to persuade him further. His teaching philosophy was to respect the individual, and he wouldn't force even his own disciples, let alone the Extreme Spirit King.
He wouldn't be dissatisfied with others just because they didn't follow his advice, or think that the other person wasn't listening to him.
Time flies by.
One day, after one of Zhou Ze's classes, the Extreme Spirit King found Zhou Ze.
-
"Senior Holy Master, I have comprehended the Law of Time and need to return to the Primordial Universe to break through to the Venerable Realm!" The Extreme Spirit King was filled with excitement.
Every cultivator wants to advance further, let alone someone like the Extreme Spirit King who has been stuck at the King-level Immortal realm for countless years and dreams of becoming a true powerhouse in the universe. Don't underestimate him just because he was previously at the King-level limit; he was already quite remarkable.
However, compared to the Venerable Ones and Lords of the Universe who truly stand at the pinnacle of their races, they are still far inferior, falling into more than one category.
It should be noted that the entire clan of Venerables and Universe Lords combined number only a few thousand. Once he becomes a Venerable, his status, position, and strength will be completely transformed compared to when he was a King.
"Yes, congratulations, go ahead!"
Zhou Ze said casually.
In fact, for Zhou Ze, breaking through from the Extreme Spirit King to the Venerable level would have many benefits. On the contrary, if he remained stuck at the King level and comprehended the laws of space, it would be of no benefit to him.
Once the Supreme Spirit King breaks through to the Venerable realm and this is announced, many Immortal Kings will be unable to contain themselves, and even some Venerables might not be able to stay put.
While the Supreme Spirit King was breaking through, a spaceship was aimlessly traversing the outer battlefield.
"Babata, it's up to you now—" Zhou Ze put his hands behind his head and looked around.
The purpose of this trip to the Yanji Continent is twofold: one is to find a suitable Immortal King, and the other is to try one's luck and see if one can find a second Heavenly Soul Crystal.
Because of him, Luo Feng has already accepted the Star Tower inheritance but has not yet been able to obtain the second Heavenly Soul Crystal.
"Zhou Ze, I have already placed a bounty on the position of the King of Light through the Hong Alliance. He is a peak-level alien king belonging to the Mechanical Race Alliance. He became immortal through the Law of Light, and after becoming immortal, he also pursued the realm of time. He is definitely the most suitable candidate for the Heart of Time!"
Babata said quickly.
"Babata, not bad, you even went to Hongmeng to offer bounties, that's progress!" Zhou Ze glanced at Babata and laughed.
"Hmph, what are you saying? This is a piece of cake for the great Babata." Upon hearing this, Babata immediately remembered what Zhou Ze had said to him before, and became furious.
"I was just praising you—" Zhou Ze glanced at Babata.
This little thing has a really bad temper, just like some of those little pets that could drive themselves to their deaths before the Great Nirvana.
Babata, hands on his hips, said, "This is a piece of cake for me, something I can do effortlessly. Praising me is an insult!"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, alright? Putting aside the facts, if you hadn't been so irresponsible before, would I have said this to you?" Zhou Ze said with a smile.
Babata was speechless when faced with this t0 version of the statement, but he felt frustrated all over.
Frustrated, Babata ignored Zhou Ze completely and devoted himself to finding the King of Time.
After a while, Babata suddenly exclaimed, "Zhou Ze, I've found him!"
"Should we take action?"
Babata first found the approximate location of the King of Light through a shop in the Hongmeng that specializes in selling intelligence, and then set off towards the target. Equipped with the most advanced detection equipment, he quickly discovered the King of Light.
"Of course! Otherwise, why would I be here?"
"This King of Light is quite powerful, possessing the strength of a peak-level King, and is extremely skilled in escape techniques. With the strength of your clone, capturing him won't be easy, and you also have to be careful of him self-destructing. You can feign weakness first, and when the time is right, use your mental power to attack and then enslave him!"
Babata went on and on about his battle plans.
