Chapter 355: 355

Due to Ling Jiu’s willfulness, it took a full eight years to get to the white hole’s vicinity and another two years to choose a suitable location to settle down.

Things could have been done more quickly, but he had spent 10 years, which was a waste of time, and he just did not care.

The time flow was faster near a white hole, and he was a super-clustered being who could afford to waste 100,000 years. So, what were a mere 10 years?

“I found you a star, Flame. You can stay on this star and practice self-cultivation from now on. Strive to become a perfect three-dimensional lifeform as quickly as you can.”

Ling Jiu brought Flame to the star. True to her nature as a Flame Astral Behemoth that fed on stars, Flame fell in love with the orange dwarf at first sight.

She flapped her wings and catapulted herself toward the orange dwarf, stirring up a terrifying solar storm.

Immediately after, like a dolphin returning to the sea, she rolled and swam freely on the star’s surface without fear of the terrifying nuclear fusion and astonishingly high temperatures.

“She’s not a Flame Astral Behemoth for nothing.”

Ling Jiu was impressed. It was hard to imagine that life could swim on the surface of a star. If she had been an ordinary lifeform, she would have been gasified instantly.

“Leoux, if you have time in the future, get more stars and planets over here. The Flame Astral Behemoth could use the stars to practice self-cultivation, and planets could be terraformed into habitable planets,” Ling Jiu said suddenly.

“Your thinking chimes with the practices of many higher-level civilizations.” Leoux nodded gently. “White holes are natural holy places for self-cultivation. More advanced civilizations that can move planets would do the same, making the most of a white hole by moving planets from other places to its vicinity.”

“White holes are a good thing.”

…

Next, Ling Jiu stayed on Whitehole 1. His original plan had been to wait for him and his Golden Saiyan Ape avatar to become super-clustered beings. Only then would he go to the Andromeda Galaxy to find the Lernaean Hydras that had wiped out the Caius Titans.

While Ling Jiu had become a super-clustered being, his avatar, the Golden Saiyan Ape, remained a Level 9 galactic being. It was only one step away from becoming a super-clustered being, and Ling Jiu did not mind waiting.

Twenty clones were comprehending the Law of Dimensions right then, and an army of gardeners was planting the super Arcana trees.

Therefore, Ling Jiu was idle and feeling bored. As such, he brought Leoux with him and started looking for planets.

White holes were a good thing.

Not only was the time flow around them fast, but the concentration of Dark Bio-energy was high.

With only five planets around such a good thing, it seemed empty, and he had to make good use of it.

Following that, Ling Jiu and Leoux looked around for suitable rocky planets as well as stars.

However, this time, Ling Jiu would leave the job of pushing planets to Leoux because Leoux could do a better job than he did in that regard.

One hundred years had passed since then.

On this day, there was a sudden burst of powerful energy on the surface of Whitehole 1. The violent energy rose in the form of shock waves, spreading all over the surface of the planet.

The shock waves were as powerful as a nuclear explosion. They carried tons of sand and dust as they swept over the surface of Whitehole 1.

“What’s the situation?”

“What’s happening?”

The event startled Emperor Might and Vulcan, who were in a self-cultivation. They spontaneously rushed out of the maglev airship and rose into the air with horror in their eyes.

“What powerful energy!”

“Who released this powerful energy?”

“Could it be that terrifying Direbeast?”

The two of them were quaking in their boots as they could feel the energy radiating from a place not far away from them.

The energy was incomparably violent like the breath of a ferocious wild beast brutally assaulting their minds.

The two wanted to know who it was, but they were too afraid to get close. They might have reached the pinnacle of galactic beings and would ascend to super-clustered level at any time, but it was like fireflies trying to outshine the sun. They did not even come close to being comparable to that energy.

They did not want to die for nothing.

“Hide! Don’t let that thing spot us, or we’ll be dead.”

Emperor Might and Vulcan had their hearts in their mouths. They quickly hid the maglev airship and swooped down to the earth, right into the ground.

It was not a wild beast but Ling Jiu’s avatar, the Golden Saiyan Ape, that had given off the powerful energy.

After a hundred years of self-cultivation, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had finally broken through that crucial stage and become a super-clustered being.

The breakthrough that the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had achieved was purely physical. It had nothing to do with the Laws.

“I’ve made it at last.”

Feeling a powerful energy gushing out of his body, Ling Jiu could not help but exhale.

He and the Golden Saiyan Ape were super-clustered beings, but there was a qualitative difference between them. There was simply no comparison.

“What is the physical attribute index of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar now, Leoux?” Ling Jiu asked.

“Let me take a look.” Leoux immediately operated the Leoux to scan the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar. After a long while, Leoux said, “Twenty million times.”

“Twenty million times? Are you kidding me?” The figure completely knocked Ling Jiu over with a feather.

Before its ascension, the physical attribute index of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was only 15 million times. After the ascension, it had risen to the astounding level of 20 million times.

It had improved by five million times.

It was stunning.

“This is how badass the ultimate Golden Saiyan Ape Warrior is. The stronger the physical body, the higher the physical attribute index. It will always surpass other beings in the same realm.”

Leoux was used to this, but it was still thrilled.

“There is no limit to how far the physical bodies of the Golden Saiyan Apes can go. So, even if they do not comprehend the Laws of the Universe and do not practice the laws of the body, they can grow stronger indefinitely. It sounds crazy, right?”

“It definitely does.” Ling Jiu sighed again and again. “But this ascension has also exhausted the Dark Bio-energy on the Floating Island.”

“That’s okay. As long as the Floating Island and the super Arcana tree forest are still there, they will continue to produce Dark Bio-energy,” Leoux said. “The avatar and the Floating Island can take this opportunity to finally catch a break.”

“Absolutely.” Ling Jiu nodded gently.

This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org

Since the last expansion, his Floating Islands and the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had reached 50 million square kilometers.

After that, the gods, Kryptonians, and Caius Titans who made up the 70,000-strong gardeners had been planting super Arcana trees on the Floating Islands nonstop.

As of now, the super Arcana tree forest covered 1,500 square kilometers with 150 billion super Arcana trees planted.

If the Dark Bio-energy produced by 360 million super Arcana trees every day was enough to form a Stellar Core, how much Dark Bio-energy could 150 billion super Arcana trees produce every day?

It would be incalculable.

Despite that, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had exhausted all the Dark Bio-energy that had been accumulating on the Floating Island for the last 100 years.

That was how much Dark Bio-energy the breakthrough had consumed this time.

However, it mattered little. The massive super Arcana tree forest would quickly replenish the Dark Bio-energy on the island.

Besides, 70,000 gardeners were working on the island, and the forest of super Arcana trees was still expanding. It was a virtuous circle.

“My avatar and I have become super-clustered beings. It is time to go to the Andromeda Galaxy, Leoux.

“Let’s go. I can’t wait too.”

The two did not set off from Whitehole 1. They first returned to Earth and departed from there.

Earth was in the Milky Way, which was closer to the Andromeda Galaxy.

“How long will it take, Leoux?”

“The solar system is about 2.5 million light-years away from the Andromeda Galaxy. The journey will take us three days.”

“Three days? I will take a nap, then. Wake me up upon arrival.”

“You got it.”

They had arrived at a planet when Ling Jiu woke up.

The entire planet was green.

There was no blue that represented the ocean.

There was no yellow that represented desert.

There was literally only green everywhere.

The entire planet looked like a crystal-clear emerald that was quietly suspended in space.

“Have we arrived, Leoux?”

“This is the first planet with life that we will visit in the Andromeda Galaxy. Shall we land and take a look?” Leoux said.

“Yeah, why not?” Ling Jiu had no problem with that.

Their purpose of going to the Andromeda Galaxy at that point was to capture the super-clustered Lernaean Hydras and find soul fragments to expand the Soul Nebula. Hence, it was unnecessary to visit planets that were devoid of super-clustered beings.

The two got out of the Leoux and approached the green planet. Ling Jiu could feel the planet’s breath of life from a distance.

“Strange, why is there only one type of sign of life here? Is there merely a single kind of life form on this planet? Did I make a mistake or something?” Ling Jiu asked in confusion.

“You didn’t make a mistake. There is indeed only one kind of life form on this planet, and that is the Lernaean Hydras I mentioned to you before,” Leoux said. “Obviously, after the Lernaean Hydras occupied this planet, they killed all the other life forms.”

“They have taken the entire planet for themselves? That is ruthless! Let’s check it out.”

Taking a step forward, Ling Jiu landed on the surface of the planet. Just as he had seen in outer space, vegetation indeed covered the entire planet. However, the vegetation did not look like trees or grass but a type of plant similar to a reed.

These reeds widely grew on the planet. At first glance, it appeared that these reeds were the only vegetation and completely covered the planet, which was also why the planet appeared green.

Beneath the reeds, unseen by the naked eye, there was water over one meter deep. The water nourished the reeds and formed a conducive environment.

“There is only one kind of plant growing on this planet? That’s amazing! I wonder how this plant evolved.” Ling Jiu was surprised.

“Natural selection promotes diversity of species, but there’s only one plant species here. Obviously, this is not the result of natural selection.” Leoux’s eyes were burning. “I think this planet was originally a water-rich planet, and someone brought this plant here later. This plant grew and finally covered the entire planet, kind of like how you plant super Arcana trees.”

“This is interesting.”
