Lu Ze was sitting on the bed in his room. He could feel heavy traces of light golden energy in his body. They were constantly strengthening his body. At this rate, it would take half a day to digest everything.
Didn’t this mean that half a golden fruit could last him a day?
Lu Ze had a total of 12 and a half in his possession. Meaning, he could use those fruits for 25 days. Of course, as Lu Ze’s body grew stronger, the rate would only increase faster.
Lu Ze used a level five mortal evolution state red orb and proceeded to begin his cultivation.
At planet Jinyao, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha were sitting opposite old man Nangong inside the shack.
The atmosphere between the two was quite awkward. They finally broke through to the planetary state, thereby creating some gap between them and Lu Ze. Nevertheless, the two of them were still evenly matched.
The old man smiled and poured three cups of golden tea.
He then drank a cup and said, “Very well, you two broke through to the planetary state two years faster than I had expected. This is very good.”
Qiuyue Hesha smiled. “You praise us too much.”
Nangong Jing grinned. “Are you very surprised, old man?”
The old man smiled as well. “Since you’re already a planetary state, do you know how to walk your future path?”
People like Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha, who became planetary states at this young age and built a great foundation, had pretty much boundless potential. They would most likely leave the Milky Way galaxy, for certain, to seek resources, in order to become stronger. By the time they had used up their potential and failed further breakthroughs, they would then come back and take on all sorts of important roles.
There were also other ways, such as guarding the void border and annihilating space pirates to get resources or search for opportunities in the void.
Perhaps, you might just straight-up reach the position of a general. This path is more stable than the other paths, but there’s not much room for improvement. Those talented young dukes usually wouldn’t choose such a path.
After all, planetary states require too many resources for a breakthrough. Even the Federation wouldn’t be able to supply enough resources to them.
Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha felt stunned. A figure popped into their heads at the same time.
The two glanced at each other. Nangong Jing smiled. “We won’t be leaving the Federation for now.”
Usually, people left the Milky Way galaxy in groups.
At the young duke celebration, there would be adventure squads that would return to invite young dukes to join them after reaching the planetary state.
All the squads pretty much invited Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha, but now, they had a better choice.
The old man wasn’t surprised by their decision. He smiled. “Since you two have decided, I won’t say much.”
“Four-Race Social and East Realm Gathering will be held soon. We’ll bring you guys over to
see.”
Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha nodded.
“Okay, you two just reached the planetary state. Go to the dao enlightenment room to consolidate your state.” Due to the special circumstance, they could use the dao enlightenment room at any time. This didn’t just apply to Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha; other people could do so too. After the two left, the old man sighed. “A hatchling is eventually going to leave the nest. I hope Lu Ze won’t disappoint us…”
After leaving the shack, the two flew toward Jinyao City. Qiuyue Hesha looked at Nangong Jing. “T-Rex, Elliot Ronald invited you to the Searing Emperor Squad. Why didn’t you go?” Nangong Jing answered, “Last time, Yuan Hongwen invited you to join the Wind and Lightning Squad. Why didn’t you go?” Both of the two stopped talking.
Soon, they arrived at the area outside Jinyao City.
The one guarding the gates was Luo Bingqing. When he saw the two land, his calm expression changed a little.
Even he could feel a powerful pressure from Nangong Jing’s and Qiuyue Hesha’s chi.
Planetary state…
He knew about their breakthrough too. This made him feel a greater urgency to catch up. They were similar in terms of power before, but now, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha were far ahead of him. This brought him quite some pressure.
Luo Bingqing then said, “Congratulations, Nangong, Qiuyue.” Nangong Jing smiled. “Old Luo, we’ll be a step ahead. Don’t fall too far behind.”
Luo Bingqing’s expression didn’t change at all. He asked, “What do you plan to do next?”
The two smiled and Qiuyue Hesha replied, “We’ll wait until after the East Realm Gathering.”
Luo Bingqing nodded. Then, he posed another question, “Using the dao enlightenment room to stabilize your state? How many days would it take?”
“3 days.” The two answered at the same time. They glanced at each other and quickly looked away.
Luo Bingqing’s hands trembled a little bit.
Three days. This was a really short time. They were really confident in their foundation.
Luo Bingqing took a deep breath and took note of this before saying, “Okay, go in.”
Planet Lan Jiang The sun was setting below the horizon.
Back in his room, Lu Ze slowly opened his eyes, and a sliver of golden light flashed under it.
Due to the golden fruits, his body was growing stronger at an astounding pace. His spirit force cultivation level couldn’t catch up anymore. Still, this was good for Lu Ze since he could use stronger red orbs. That way, his spirit force cultivation would also improve faster.
There wasn’t much light golden energy left in his body. Soon, it would be completely digested.
Eventually, it was time for dinner.
Lu Ze went downstairs. His parents and Alice’s parents were there already.
He heard Fu Shuya’s voice immediately. “Aren’t young dukes Jing and Hesha the two girls who appeared on my boy’s news report before? Are they already at the planetary state?”
Zhu Hong Lian said in surprise, “These two girls are so strong!” She was a young duke before and was a star state now. Even though she hadn’t completely recovered, she still had planetary state power.
When she reached the planetary state, she was already in her forties, but these two girls reached the planetary state during their thirties.
