Flying to Earth!
Chapter 499: Flying to Earth
In the training room, Xia Fei wantonly manipulated the White Heart of Spirit in his hand. In just a few hours, Xia Fei had already completely grasped the method to get close to this tier 3 Cosmic Origin Energy.
"Could you have been born with the ability to control Cosmic Origin Energy?" Phantom was shocked for a good while. "That's unbelievable!"
Xia Fei shrugged. "I don't know, either. Once I understood how to control it, I naturally learned it. Now, the huge amount of energy is flowing through my body with relative ease and without any hindrance."
Phantom gulped. Though Xia Fei had been stuck at the Legendary rank for a long time, it did not mean that he did not have potential. Controlling Cosmic Origin Energy required a high degree of concentration and precise control over the energy, but Xia Fei seemed to be able to do it effortlessly, grasping the technique in a matter of minutes. It was precisely because of his innate sensitivity to energy.
"Alright, the next step is to transfer the Cosmic Origin Energy to the Blood Demon Claw. First, you'll need to create a brand new incubator, and then let the Cosmic Origin Energy enter the incubator through your body. There's an additional benefit to doing this," Phantom said gleefully. He could finally put the technique he had learned from the Sentinel Goddess to use, and he was very proud of it.
"The energy will enter the incubator through your body, so it'll inevitably be contaminated with your aura. Once the Blood Demon Claw matures, it'll become closer to you, and the side effects will be greatly reduced."
Xia Fei nodded. Cultivating a plant was like raising a baby. The more contact it had before it matured, the closer it would become to itself. This was a principle that everyone understood.
"I'll go create a new incubator tomorrow, but I want to leave the cultivation process on the warship."
"Why? You're going on a long trip? "Phantom asked.
"There's still three months until the appointed date with Yujiang and Yuhua. I want to make a trip back to Earth. I don't know how long this trip to the Law Realm will take, so …"
Phantom said in a deep voice, "Indeed. Terminus is already on the right track, and there won't be any problems with the experienced Old Potter overseeing things here. It's good to go home and take a look."
…
Three days later, Xia Fei piloted Nirvana along with Quantum Holdings' Ranger fleet and Sarah's commercial transport fleet. Their destination was Earth!
On the screen was the newly appointed president of the Alliance, Tai, and his two assistants, Layton and Williams. The military triumvirate had now been upgraded to the Alliance triumvirate. Tai was the president, Williams was in charge of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Layton remained in the military.
"Xia Fei, you're finally willing to come out from that deathtrap. For the past two years, you've been stuck in the Death Trio Star Region, never once showing your face. Now that you're on your way back to Earth and passing by the Venal Galaxy, you must come over and be my guest," Williams said with a smile as he chewed on a piece of candy.
Layton carelessly said, "That's right. Don't think that only your Terminus Star Region is developing rapidly. Venal has already been rebuilt, and the scenery there is beautiful."
Xia Fei chuckled. "I believe that. With the strength of the entire Alliance, the construction of the capital will naturally proceed very quickly."
The triumvirate was speechless. Xia Fei was right. The development of Venal had relied on the entire Alliance, while the development of Terminus had been completed by Xia Fei alone. There was no way to compare the two.
After a pause, Xia Fei said, "I appreciate your kind intentions, but I'm about to embark on a long journey and don't have much time, so I won't be bothering you all."
No matter what the triumvirate said, Xia Fei still rejected their proposal. It would take two months to travel from Terminus to Earth, and Xia Fei hoped to spend more time on Earth, his only home, in the time he had.
…
In the training room, the new storage container was very thick and heavy. It was made of transparent white crystal, which could ensure sufficient sunlight and prevent energy from leaking out.
Xia Fei took out the White Heart of Spirit from his spatial ring and held it with both hands, allowing the energy to circulate through his body.
He slowly let go of his left hand, and a large amount of Cosmic Origin Energy was released from his palm, a thick white mist almost spurting out!
The storage container was instantly shrouded in this white mist, and the light and shadow flickered.
"That's enough! Stop!" Phantom nervously said.
Xia Fei hurriedly pulled back his left arm and held the White Heart of Spirit with both hands, forming another cycle. The Blood Demon Claw could not withstand much energy, and if too much energy was injected into it at once, it could very well cause the plant to die, so the amount needed to be strictly controlled.
Squatting down, Xia Fei and Phantom observed this plant that would give Xia Fei hope. All they saw was a large amount of white mist slowly revolving around it, gradually being absorbed into its body.
"Yes, it's progressing very quickly. The Blood Demon Claw has turned dark red once more, and this is already the third time. If it can mature this time, it'll have three times the original medicinal strength," Phantom said.
Xia Fei nodded. "I can only hope that it can grow quickly. There's not much time left, and I don't want to enter the Law Realm with just a Legendary rank cultivation."
Without strength, it meant that no matter where he went, he would not be acknowledged, and there was even the possibility of being bullied. This was an unchanging truth. Having not advanced for more than two years, Xia Fei's desire for greater strength was growing by the day.
"There's no need to rush. Once your seventh brain region is repaired, you'll have great prospects. From what I know, there's only a one in ten thousand chance for your seventh brain region to be fully opened, even in the Law Realm. Your potential can be described as limitless, so all we can do now is wait patiently."
…
Having to replenish the energy of the Blood Demon Claw every twelve hours, Xia Fei closed the door and walked out of the cultivation chamber. He saw Avril and Lil Pea waiting for him at the door. Lil Pea was holding a tea tray with snacks and fruits on it.
"You've worked hard," Avril said with a smile. "Hurry up and get some rest in the living room."
Xia Fei nodded. This kind of simple life of a married couple was very pleasant, and Avril and Lil Pea's meticulous care had filled Xia Fei with gratitude.
"You're leaving again soon?" Avril suddenly asked in the living room.
Xia Fei furrowed his brows. He had yet to tell Avril about his trip to the Law Realm, so he had no idea how she found out or how she would feel about it.
Love was both a blessing and a responsibility. Of course, Xia Fei was not an irresponsible man who would leave his family behind, pick up his backpack, and leave, but the higher goal and the mysterious Law Realm were drawing him in, and he could not resist it.
"I accidentally overheard your conversation with Tai and the others. Sorry," Avril said nonchalantly.
Xia Fei said in a deep voice, "That's indeed the case. I'm going to a very far place, and it might be a long time before I come back."
Avril clenched her fists, seemingly very excited. "That's the Xia Fei I like. I'll support you no matter where you go! A man should pursue his own dreams. You've been quiet for two years, and I was worried that you'd stop moving forward because of this. Now, you're finally going to set off again, heading to those strange places. I don't care, but you have to tell me many, many interesting stories when you come back. "
Xia Fei's gaze turned gentle. He knew that Avril could not bear to part with him. She had purposely acted like this so that she would not be a burden to Xia Fei.
Understanding was a very blissful thing. Xia Fei might be able to easily find the most beautiful woman in the world, but it would be very difficult to find someone like Avril who understood him and was willing to make sacrifices for him.
After a pause, Xia Fei affectionately said, "I'm lucky to have you."
Avril blushed, hugging Xia Fei and whispering, "I'm lucky, too."
…
Xia Fei did not go to Venal to meet the triumvirate, but he could not avoid meeting Avril's father and grandfather. The magnificent Half Moon Villa had long been razed to the ground by the insectoids, and the Jian family had rebuilt Half Moon Mountain and Half Moon Lake. On the outside, the mountain and lake looked no different from before, but Xia Fei felt that there was more of a smoke and fire in them, a lack of spiritual energy.
The spirit of the mountains and rivers could not be reborn. Even if they looked exactly like the past, they would not be able to restore their past temperament.
Ever since the Jian family obtained the Black Bat data base station that Xia Fei had gifted them, there was no longer a single company in the Alliance that could compete with Starlink Corporation in the field of communications. Handheld ultra-long distance communicators and the second generation interplanetary internet with super bandwidth had all become standard equipment in the Alliance, and even the military had to rely heavily on Starlink Corporation.
Now that the Jian family's Starlink Corporation and Xia Fei's Quantum Holdings were both ranked in the top ten of the Alliance, everyone knew that the Jian family only had one granddaughter, and this granddaughter would marry Xia Fei sooner or later. Thus, in a sense, Starlink Corporation and Quantum Holdings were inseparable, and the owner could only be surnamed Xia.
With these two giants working together, they could look down on everyone else and become the undisputed number one corporation in the Alliance!
After spending a day in the Venal Galaxy, Xia Fei once again set sail for Earth with Avrils.
In the training room, that Blood Demon Claw had once again regressed from a deep red to a faint green, and Xia Fei's hopes of repairing his seventh brain region were dashed once more.
"How could this be?! According to the records, the Blood Demon Claw can only mutate five times at most. This is clearly the fifth time, so why hasn't it matured yet?! "Phantom was somewhat hysterical and angry.
Xia Fei sighed and consoled him. "Look on the bright side. This is the sixth time the Blood Demon Claw has regressed to a newborn state. If it matures, it'll have six times the medicinal strength of the past, so that's a good thing."
Phantom shook his head, half-jokingly saying, "Each transformation takes a month. We'll be arriving on Earth tomorrow, so there's only a month left before you head off to the Law Realm. I hope that it can mature before you depart, or else you'll have no choice but to bring your half-crippled seventh brain region to meet those Law Adepts."
Xia Fei did not say anything. He took off his shirt, revealing a body of muscles that could only be obtained through arduous cultivation. The mysterious totem on his left arm was still there, and Xia Fei could not decipher the mysteries of the Law of Primal Chaos no matter how hard he tried.
On his right arm was a lone, one-leaved blue grass. Ever since Peacock Blue had coincidentally grown a blade of grass, it had fallen into a deep slumber, never to wake up again.
Of the Law of Primal Chaos and Peacock Blue, one was a mystical law that reversed right and wrong in the universe, causing all things to be in chaos, while the other was one of the Thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments, a natural-type top-tier weapon that had existed since the beginning of the universe. Xia Fei could not help but feel vexed that he was guarding these two treasures without being able to use them.
"Forget it. Perhaps I'll have my answer once I get to the Law Realm," Xia Fei consoled himself.
