Du Bai’s heart surged with waves of shock.
Planet Level Cultivation Technique, Perfection!
And it was achieved in just a few years!
Such speed, even within the entirety of the Life Factions, counts as an exceptionally excellent existence.
Du Bai has been in the Life Factions for over thirty years, and he knows very well that since the establishment of the Life Factions, there have been geniuses who have cultivated a Planet Level Cultivation Technique to Perfection in just a few years.
On the contrary, many extraordinarily talented prodigies have emerged.
But Lu Sheng grew up under his own watch, which feels somewhat different.
Du Bai had high hopes for Lu Sheng, but he didn’t expect Lu Sheng’s talent to be even more formidable than he imagined!
"Perhaps Lu Sheng inherently suited the Life and Death Technique, and it was at the Ancient Temple Star, a place extremely suitable for cultivating the Life and Death Technique, that enabled him to achieve Perfection in just a few years."
Du Bai muttered secretly to himself, though he was still deeply shocked.
"Senior, I’ll leave the Heaven-Reaching Ship to you. Here are two thousand credits, please upgrade it well for me!"
Saying this, Lu Sheng transferred two thousand credits from his account to Du Bai.
Du Bai, already in the interstellar ship business, upgrading a ship for him wasn’t a difficult task.
"No problem, leave it to me."
Du Bai patted his chest reassuringly.
Then Lu Sheng looked at Du Bai and spoke softly, "Senior Brother Bai, in two years, the faction’s grand competition will be held. I want to give it a try during this period."
"No matter what, I want to try and see if I can break into the top hundred of the faction’s grand competition!"
Listening to Lu Sheng’s words, Du Bai’s heart trembled slightly.
He understood Lu Sheng’s intention, and his gaze towards him gradually became complex.
Lu Sheng’s talent is indeed remarkable, achieving Perfection in the Life and Death Technique in just a few years. However, the Life Factions have countless prodigies, and even a Life and Death Technique at Perfection level might struggle against those who have been training in the faction for years.
But Lu Sheng’s willingness to pursue this dream moved Du Bai, though he didn’t hold out too much hope.
After all... the difficulty is truly immense.
Perhaps in the next grand competition, Lu Sheng will have a significant chance, but this time, the chances are slim.
Du Bai took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
Even though he felt the hope was faint, Lu Sheng’s determination touched Du Bai deeply.
Lu Sheng smiled slightly, saying no more. After handing over the Heaven-Reaching Ship to Du Bai, he bid farewell and departed, navigating the Giant Divine Soldier.
Watching Lu Sheng leave, Du Bai’s mind involuntarily recalled his own past.
Back then, he too was full of vigor, hope, and aspirations towards the martial path.
Various emotions swirled in Du Bai’s mind until Lu Sheng’s figure disappeared from his view. Du Bai suddenly spoke impulsively.
"Perhaps... Lu Sheng really could create this miracle?"
Though he fell silent after speaking, a bitter smile appeared on his face. Shaking his head, he walked into Lu Sheng’s Heaven-Reaching Ship, ready to help upgrade it.
Qingtian traversed through the cosmic star river, and Lu Sheng’s gaze fell on the screen ahead. On the screen were tasks issued by the Life Factions.
"From entering the Ancient Temple Star until now, I have not tested my combat power’s exact level. Now that the guard mission is completed and the Life and Death Technique has reached Perfection, I can thoroughly test it."
Lu Sheng said, constantly searching through the task center.
Soon, his gaze fell on a particular task.
[Beginner Task: Kill the Fourth Stage Peak Cosmic Creature—Starlight Giant Crocodile—escaped outside Celestial Destiny Star!]
[Task Reward: 1000 Credits!]
[Task Requirement: Non-Fourth Stage Peak Combat Power cannot accept!]
"A Fourth Stage Peak cosmic creature?"
"This might be able to test my ultimate combat power, right?"
Looking at the task to kill the Starlight Giant Crocodile, Lu Sheng chose to accept it.
Soon, the task acceptance message popped up on his wristwatch, including the coordinates of Celestial Destiny Star and the escape trajectory of the Starlight Giant Crocodile.
Lu Sheng input the coordinates into Qingtian.
"Coordinates confirmed, initiating Light-speed Flight mode!"
Qingtian’s voice resonated within the internal space.
"Preparing for Light-speed Flight..."
Lu Sheng sat in Qingtian’s internal space. After a minute of preparation for Light-speed Flight.
In the next moment, Qingtian transformed into a stream of light, instantly heading towards Celestial Destiny Star.
Under Light-speed Flight, Lu Sheng reached the task location in just a few minutes, as luck was on his side.
Upon arriving outside Celestial Destiny Star, he saw a giant crocodile standing over tens of meters tall, coiled on a meteorite outside Celestial Destiny Star.
The crocodile emitted streaks of starlight, as if stars were imprinted on its body.
"Starlight Giant Crocodile..."
Lu Sheng smiled lightly upon seeing it, stepping out directly from Qingtian.
Since his real combat power needs testing, there was no need to use Qingtian.
As Lu Sheng stepped out of Qingtian, the Starlight Giant Crocodile coiled on the meteorite immediately roared ferociously.
