Chapter 121. Our Path of Conquest is the Stars and Seas
/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~
Although this was just shown on the screen, the scene was still extremely shocking. The game was very immersive.
At this moment, Lin Ling did something, and a small figure flew out from a huge ship of the human race.
Lu Ze looked at the figure with shock.
That was a vacuum space!
Although he knew planetary states and above could fly in space, this was the first time he saw it.
Living beings, as long as they were strong enough, could survive in any environment in the universe just with their body.
Humans were the same.
When this figure appeared, an even shocking scene appeared.
On the screen, the figure was enlarged. It was a 3D outlined man, resembling a real person. He held a faint purple long sword.
The man twisted his wrist, and a few kilometer-long, terrifying sword ray flashed and sliced an enemy ship in half.
Lu Ze looked at this in a daze.
This person… was too strong.
He casually destroyed a ship?!
After an attack, the man's eyes went cold. It seemed he was determined to kill.
His body disappeared. Lu Ze couldn't capture his movements at all. Then, ships exploded one by one. Instantly, tens of ships had turned to dust.
Lu Ze's heart skipped fast after seeing this.
It was no wonder that powerful beings were the supporting pillars of civilization.
Even if there were destructive weapons, it would still be difficult to target the powerful being.
And, his destructive power was too terrifying. He was more agile than spaceships and had stronger attacks.
After breaking more than a hundred ships, two more figures appeared in the space.
These two figures were different from humans. They were completely black while burning with flames. Such flames didn't quench even in the vacuum of space.
When these two appeared, Lin Ling tried to use the space ships to stall one of them and let the man kill one first. However, the spaceships were too slow.
The two figures disappeared at the same time and so did the man.
Then, terrifying power ravaged in space. The nearby ships were caught in the ripples. Some lost their power and some exploded.
The battle lasted a long time. Lin Ling kept trying to use her ships to do something, but they were too slow for planetary state martial artists.
The screen showed that one day had passed in the game.
During this day, the enemy ships became defensive while the human ships took the offensive. But when the battle between the three planetary states stopped, only the two aliens remained. One only had a broken arm, and the other was completely unharmed.
Clearly, the man had been killed.
Then, with the help of two planetary states, the human ships were quickly crippled.
Lin Ling sighed and groaned. "Sister Jing, the human race only has one powerful being, and the battleships are the most ordinary ones. They don't even have weapons against planetary states. This campaign is impossible."
She felt that she had participated in quite a few small-scale wars this month, but this war had no hopes of victory.
Nangong Jing looked at the defeat screen with complicated eyes before drinking more.
After she was satisfied she said, "Yeah, impossible."
Then, she continued, "This planetary state is Lieutenant General Liang Chengzhe from 1300 years ago. At that time, the human race didn't have that many planetary states like now. If we encounter a fleet with two planetary states, we're pretty much over unless we have a prodigy who can do a 1v2 (one versus two). Our ships were very technologically behind. If you want to win such a campaign…"
Nangong Jing's eyes flashed with coldness. "Perhaps, there is hope if all ships went up and self-destructed."
Lu Ze and Lin Ling looked at Nangong Jing speechlessly.
Then, Nangong Jing smiled. "At that time, the human race was still weak, and that's why we were like that. The black flame race in the campaign has been beaten to the ground by us in real life."
Lu Ze looked at the two speechlessly and said, "This isn't a game?"
He thought it was a fictional game.
Lin Ling smiled. "It is, but it's a real campaign from before. You can train your commanding skills."
Lin Ling's eyes flashed. Her target was to be the first female marshal of the federation!
This required a deep understanding of commanding warfare.
Lu Ze nodded. "Oh."
As a pure fighter, he knew nothing of schemes.
If he was strong to the point that he could subjugate the entire cosmos with one hand, who would dare to touch the human race?
Instead of wasting your brains on that, you might as well cultivate.
After all, his [Pocket Hunting Dimension] was so strong. It would be a waste not to focus on cultivation.
Seeing Lu Ze wasn't interested, Lin Ling bared her lips and kept playing while Nangong Jing drank wine.
In a short while, she finished six bottles.
Lu Ze's mouth twitched.
Sensing Lu Ze's gaze, she handed the bottle over. "Do you want some?"
Lu Ze answered, "… You can have it."
He speechlessly packed up the wine bottles and came to the window.
The ship was rather fast, he couldn't see planet Lanjiang at all now.
Lu Ze looked out into the vast mesmerizing cosmos. He was nervous and yet excited.
Our path of conquest is the planet and seas!
This was the 12th line he wanted to say the most when he was immature.
Lu Ze felt this was very in line with the atmosphere now.
At this moment, Nangong Jing came over with her wine bottle and stood next to Lu Ze. She drank some more first.
She smiled at Lu Ze. "How is it? The universe is very big right?"
Lu Ze nodded. "Mhm."
Nangong Jing patted Lu Ze's shoulder. "This is only the milky way galaxy! The entire universe is much bigger than imagined!"
Then, her eyes seemed full of hope "When I break through to planetary state, I'm going to leave the Milky Way galaxy and go on an adventure. I will become very strong and then come back!"
Then, Nangong Jing threw the wine bottle and pointed out at the cosmos and smiled "Our path of conquest is the planet and seas!"
Lu Ze: "…."
Oh my!
Doesn't she feel embarrassed?
Even Lu Ze didn't say such things now!

Chapter 122. Fire Tree and Flame
/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~
Lu Ze saw the aspiration in Nangong Jing's eyes and asked curiously, "Teacher Nangong, what level are you now?"
Nangong Jing replied with a smile, "Still mortal evolution state. When all the cells in my body contain planet seeds, I can enter planetary state."
Lu Ze: "…"
He felt it was best that he didn't tell her he had reached a complete spirit body.
However, he didn't have planetary seeds in his cells as his spirit force cultivation level was too low.
Nangong Jing grinned. "What? You're asking about my level. Do you want to catch up to me?"
With a smile, Lu Ze said, "Doesn't Teacher Nangong believe it? You said my talent is quite good. Perhaps, I can really catch up to you."
Nangong Jing looked outside at the distant stars and said, "If you really can catch up to me, then that's good. I will be happy for you."
Lu Ze widened his eyes. Those words were much more mature than before.
Soon, the ship went into warp drive flight. The three went to their own rooms and started cultivation.
They could rest, but they must not leave behind cultivation.
Lu Ze closed his eyes and entered the [Pocket Hunting Dimension] again.
It was still the grassy plains. 20 days ago, Lu Ze thought he was invincible in the grass, and then, he realized he was too naive.
The tall red horned lion taught him a lesson.
After that, Lu Ze had thought about hunting new beasts in other regions.
When he ran for an entire day, he finally encountered some different animals.
One was a 3-meter tall leopard. It was covered in black armor with a hideous horn on its head. Lu Ze called this strange beast a black scaled leopard.
When they saw Lu Ze, they charged at him with red eyes as though he had candy.
At that time, Lu Ze was just an abstruse martial state and was beaten up helplessly. He was instantly killed by the four black scaled leopards.
When he came out of the [Pocket Hunting Dimension], he realized that those leopards probably had at least core martial state power!
After that, Lu Ze could only launch sneak attacks toward the red female lions.
However after he killed a few, the male lion would appear, and Lu Ze would die in his resistance.
He even suspected if this male lion was the main character amongst lions; the type that had hacks.
No matter how far he went to hunt, why could this guy still come to him??
However, as Lu Ze got stronger and stronger, it was getting harder and harder for the lion to kill Lu Ze.
Last night, Lu Ze could even fight with the lion for a while. It was just that he didn't have the same stamina; thus, he died from the flames that were spat out.
He believed that in just a few days, he could definitely kill the male lion!
But today, Lu Ze didn't want to sit and wait. He started to run toward the direction of the male lion. He wanted to see how the male lion knew he was hunting female lions.
He was very curious.
After running a few hours, Lu Ze widened his eyes. He saw a huge tree over fifty meters tall.
The huge tree didn't have leaves. It only had a ray of red flames burning. However, the tree trunk wasn't burnt to ash.
This was a fire tree.
Then, Lu Ze saw a red horned male lion sleeping under the tree. There were also six female lions resting next to him obediently.
Lu Ze: "…"
Lu Ze glanced at that fire tree. At the very top, there seemed to be a flame that was different from the rest of the flames. It was especially bright.
With every sway of the flame, the male lion would flash red.
Lu Ze watched silently, and his smile gradually lost morality.
This was probably a treasure.
Would he be able to use it?
At this moment, the flame suddenly shivered, and the male lion got up. It looked coldly at Lu Ze.
The two stared at each other, and the atmosphere was rather awkward.
Lu Ze couldn't resist blushing. He was secretly scheming for the male lion's treasure.
This shouldn't be so. It should be overt!
At this moment, the male lion growled and charged at Lu Ze.
Lu Ze focused his glance. He clashed once with the lion and then charged at the fire tree.
At this moment, a furious roar sounded behind him. Lu Ze could feel the heat behind him. A green light flashed under his eyes as he instantly shifted a few meters to the left, dodging the fireball. Then, he kept moving towards the fire tree.
His combat power might not be as strong as the male lion, but his speed was faster than the lion.
At this moment, the six female lions under the tree roared at Lu Ze.
Lu Ze's eyes went cold. Red and green lights flashed in his eyes. A burning whirlwind appeared on his right hand. When the wind spun, the flames grew even bigger.
This was Lu Ze's wind and fire fusion god art.
Flame whirlwind!
Lu Ze waved his right hand. The sharp cutting wind and fire flew towards the male lion behind him.
He would stop the strong one behind him first.
While flying, the small whirlwind grew to a big flame whirlwind.
The male lion roared in fury. Vibrant red flames ignited on his body. He slapped out, and a huge flame claw was shot on the whirlwind.
Rumble!!
Terrifying energy waves appeared. Lu Ze used this pushing power to go even faster, instantly turning into a blur and using six punches to kill the six female lions.
He was no longer the noob hunter that would be burned to ashes by a fireball.
He was very strong now!
Lu Ze didn't stop. In the roar of the lion, he happily came before that wavering flame.
He ignited in flames as he used his fire god art to grab at this flame.
Immediately, there was a huge pain, and along with it, came all sorts of secrets to the fire god art.
Surprise and joy flashed in Lu Ze's eyes. It was useful.
But before he could be happy, his vision sunk into darkness.
