In one of the suites on planet Zhihuo, Ying Ying forced herself to remain awake and finish all of the meals prepared by Alice. Afterward, she happily fell asleep with a satisfied smile
Lu Ze’s eyes went red. ‘Even when she was sleepy, he still couldn’t beat her when it comes to eating.’
Eventually, only a small portion was given to him. Ying Ying snatched almost everything away. Hence, he promised to himself to make the little girl taste the same pain of being robbed when his cultivation level reached the cosmic realm state!
Meanwhile, Nangong Jing held Ying Ying as she grinned. “Let her sleep.”
Lu Li and the girls nodded and sent the girl to her room. They fed her some orbs before finally leaving her alone.
Nangong Jing put her hand around Lu Ze’s neck on the couch and grinned. “Ze, I made a breakthrough and reached the star state! My combat power is stronger than yours now!”
The difference between a planetary state and a star state was rather substantial. Back in the planetary state, her combat power was far off from Lu Ze’s, but after reaching the star state, she felt she might be stronger than he was.
Qiuyue Hesha also grinned. “You’re not as strong as I am now.”
Now, it was her turn to take Lu Ze around in the Pocket Hunting Dimension.
Lu Ze: 111
He rolled his eyes. “Enjoy your cockiness while you still can. When I reach the star state in a few days, hehe~”
Nangong Jing waved her fists in annoyance. “Too bad there are no virtual reality pods here. Otherwise, I will let you know my power!”
Alice, Lu Li, and Lin Ling looked with envy in their eyes. They wanted to be stronger than Lu Ze too. But it seemed as though they would never have a chance in this lifetime.
Thinking about this, they sighed in unison.
Currently, it was already night. The stars descended below the horizon.
Because Ying Ying ate most of the insectoids, there wasn’t a lot of them in the sky now, even though there were still incoming ones. The planet appeared peaceful today. The group sat on the couch and chatted for a while.
Qiuyue Hesha later said, “Alright, time to cultivate.”
Lu Li got up.
Nangong Jing remarked, “We’ll still cultivate together at night.”
Lin Ling and the others nodded in agreement.
Qiuyue Hesha looked unwillingly at Lu Ze before being dragged by the girls into their room.
Lu Ze’s mouth twitched upon seeing how Qiuyue Hesha acted.
‘She must be laughing on the inside!’
During this time, Lu Ze frowned.
‘What would happen then once they knew about the Pocket Hunting Dimension?’
Lu Ze shuddered. He quickly stopped thinking about it and simply returned to his room. After sitting down, he entered the Pocket Hunting Dimension.
Once again, he pulled Qiuyue Hesha inside, and she immediately ran into his arms. “Little brother Lu Ze, I reached the star state. Let’s celebrate”
Lu Ze: “???”
After the celebration was over, the two proceeded to the usual map. They ended up in the same forest as before.
Lu Ze and Qiuyue Hesha concealed their chi. After making sure there were no powerful beasts around, they breathed easy.
Right then, Lu Ze asked, “Hesha, what is your combat power now?”
Qiuyue Hesha thought about it and beamed with a smile. “I don’t really know, but it should be near level-6 star state?”
Lu Ze nodded. He didn’t feel shocked at all. ‘In that case, should he rely on her?’ ‘Great!
Lu Ze was also quite eager to see what his combat power would be when he reached the star state. It should definitely surpass theirs by a huge margin. Lu Ze looked at Qiuyue Hesha. “Then, we can hunt much more targets today.”
Qiuyue Hesha grinned. Suddenly, she cornered Lu Ze onto a tree and lifted up his chin with her finger. “Little brother Lu Ze, I’ll protect you today.” Lu Ze: “…”
‘Is she cosplaying some dominant heroine now?’
Lu Ze pondered for a moment.
‘Should he cooperate and keep up the act?’
After a brief period of silence, Lu Ze pretended to be feeble and pitiful. “Then, I’ll rely on Hesha today.”
Qiuyue Hesha chuckled and let her body fall on Lu Ze. She patted his shoulder. “You’re so wicked, playing with me like that.”
Lu Ze looked at her innocently. “You started it first. It’s not my fault.”
Qiuyue Hesha raised her head. “It’s your fault regardless.”
Lu Ze: “…”
He nodded seriously. “Yes, it’s my fault!”
Qiuyue Hesha smirked and hugged Lu Ze’s arm. “Let’s go, I’ll take you around!”
…
Ten hours later, a level-2 star state black turtle crashed to the ground and died next to a lake.
Qiuyue Hesha wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, “Little brother Lu Ze, let’s take a break. I have used up most of my power.”
Her stamina couldn’t compare with Lu Ze’s. Even though she was a level-1 star state, her recovery speed was not as good as peak stage planetary state Lu Ze.
Lu Ze nodded. “I’ll pick up the orbs.”
The turtle left around red and purple orbs, as well as a watery god art orb and blood crystal.
This was the fifth black turtle they had killed. He could now begin learning the water god art.
With Qiuyue Hesha’s current combat power, ordinary level-2 star state beasts couldn’t break free from her seduction. This made their jungling experience very easy. ‘A green tiger, a lightning bird, a bone elephant with body god art, and a black turtle with water god art…’
All of these level-1 and level-2 star state beasts committed suicide due to Qiuyue Hesha’s seduction god art.
All Lu Ze had to do was to become her cheerleader.
This was the first time that jungling became too easy for him inside the Pocket Hunting Dimension.
This made him feel rather satisfied.
Because there were no clashes involved, no super-powerful beasts would notice their actions.
All these orbs and crystals were being harvested by him. He reveled in the feeling of becoming a sugar baby. He recounted the encounters.
During this time, the fox demon killed 53 level-1 star states and 24 level-2 star states.
The number of orbs was enough for Lu Ze, Nangong Jing, and Qiuyue Hesha. With those, they can cultivate for several more days.
As for Lin Ling, Lu Li, and Alice, they could only use level-1 star state red orbs now.
He was going to consume the level-2 star state red orbs after coming out.
In that case, he wouldn’t need a week to successfully make a breakthrough.
‘Two to three days was enough!’
By then, he would be able to kill stronger beasts and check whether that could repair the elders’ foundations.
Just as he was indulging himself, a fluctuation occurred at the mountain range without a warning. Following such, the distant mountains crumbled, and his vision turned dark.
