Chapter 1040: Dance
A gorgeous and boundless starry sky greeted the eyes.
Chen Rui was floating in this vast universe.
This was his universe.
Super System.
Destruction and creation were the 2 most basic laws of the universe. Although he had obtained a complete understanding of the destruction origin and creation origin, it was only the surface level.
Chen Rui closed his eyes and quietly felt everything around him.
Every feeling was so wonderful as if the state of mind and strength were constantly being refined in this ‘trance’.
Looking back on the path he walked before, the original ‘upgrade’ was actually just using the ‘innate’ power of the Super System to enhance his ability to obtain the newly activated skills of the system.
This kind of improvement was actually just a pa.s.sive ‘uplift’. At that time, the Super System was more of a wonderful data-based tool in his mind.
Coming all the way from the original ‘Alkaid’ realm and knowing the Purple Pole Star Emperor in the current ‘Merak’ realm, he could truly comprehend some of the mysteries of the Super System.
The previous data-based systems, including skills, were only acc.u.mulating the foundation. With the improvement of the level, the concepts of digitization became more and more blurred while another feeling became more and more clear: Life.
The initial chaos, then to the living planet, to the solar system and the galaxy territory. It was a complicated evolution process of universe life.
The current Super System was no longer the previous ‘boot screen’ of the game in his eyes but a universe that contained real life.
This universe had infinite mysteries. It was no longer limited or set by rules and regulations but full of possibilities. This meant that it was no longer necessary to rely entirely on the settings of the Super System but his own creation and comprehension.
Even as the controller of Galaxy Divinity Temple, his comprehension was only a touch by virtue of the comprehension of the 2 basic laws of creation and destruction. It needed to be further comprehended and discovered. This would also become the source of the Purple Pole Star Emperor’s continuous improvement and growth.
As far as skills were concerned, although only 1 [Mirror Body] was added to this advance, Chen Rui himself was able to create 4 mights that evolved from the art of war. This was the real qualitative change.
The more he got out of a certain shackle, the more he could grasp the real power.
The battle with Raphael was a valuable experience for Chen Rui. To be fair, he was far from being Raphael’s opponent now. The reason why Raphael suffered continuously at the Holy Light Mountain was mainly because he was well prepared, plus the magic effects of artifacts and skills. If he faced the enemy again, he would be lucky if he managed to escape again.
However, Chen Rui had only just broken through the realm. He was still at the fairly preliminary stage on the use and comprehension of the newly acquired various powers, including the strongest [Purple Pole Star Transformation]. Take that move [Dimension Destruction] as an example, this ultimate move not only had the power of [Light Splitting] and [True Red Extinction], but also the s.p.a.ce power obtained from the Tower of Glory, making a dimensional s.p.a.ce by combining the 2 laws of creation and destruction into 1. The powerful impact generated by the conflict of the 2 laws would destroy all enemies in the dimension. When he was training, he could not fully activate it. Only when he faced Raphael, a powerful opponent, he successfully activated.
Chen Rui’s mind moved as he realized something. He had returned to the training ground of Galaxy Divinity Temple in an instant.
Just like the exercise in his mind, after entering the [Purple Pole Star Transformation] state, he was instantly divided into 3 silhouettes. Among the powerful purple-red power, a triangular dimension was successfully constructed in the s.p.a.ce.
The overlapping image of the triangle spreads, and everything in the center was shattered.
It took a long time for the s.p.a.ce to return to its original state.
Chen Rui stabilized his breathing and quickly calmed down the somewhat chaotic power. After this period of training, he was able to activate this new move more freely, and the might became stronger and stronger.
What he had to do now was to further master and comprehend the power of the Purple Pole Star Emperor. If he encountered Raphael again, as he himself said, the next battle would be more intense.
Activating various moves and might over and over again until exhaustion.
Rest and recover, then train again. The cycle kept repeating.
Although the most important thing at this level was comprehension, hard training and diligence were always the foundation. There was no room for complacency and slacking off.
After completing the training goal of a custom stage in a special time law, Chen Rui walked out of the training ground and saw an alluring figure appearing at the door of the Galaxy Divinity Temple.
“Chen Rui.” Veronica came over.
“Veronica.” Chen Rui nodded, “I rarely see you lately. How are things?”
“You want to see me so much? Aren’t you afraid that your wives will be jealous?” Seeing the slightly embarra.s.sed expression on Chen Rui’s face, Veronica smiled and changed the subject, “My experience during this period… it’s so amazing that it’s hard to describe it in words. I entered a new world as an ‘oracle’, watching all the people in that world, feeling, merging, and changing with my own emotions. My gain is quite huge. Those experiences that I have experienced are just… just like the pain before the phoenix reborn. Now is the real beginning of my life. Thank you.”
Veronica’s gaze was gentle and clear, and Chen Rui could sense what it contained. The emotion of looking up at the sun in the Abyss had not changed until now, but it had only sublimated into another emotion; a kind of love.
Not just siblings; not just partners… He couldn’t tell what it was specifically on the spot, but he just felt that that kind of love could accommodate everything.
“Veronica, I…”
“You don’t need to apologize or explain. I don’t want to repeat what I said to you.” Veronica shook her head, “You just need to know that I’m living a good, fulfilling life here.”
Chen Rui usually thought he was eloquent, but now he couldn’t utter a word. He just nodded silently.
“Okay, Your Highness Divinity King.” Veronica smiled softly, “As your oracle, I have something to tell Your Majesty.”
“This t.i.tle is so flashy, can I take it as a prank?” Chen Rui shook his head, and the atmosphere finally relaxed.
“If you’re sure of accepting this ‘prank’.” Veronica laughed, “But this t.i.tle is well deserved because your 2 queens… Well, it’s Zola and Yini who have built the Galaxy Divinity Statues, but according to the cognition of ‘oracle’, a fusion ritual of faith is needed to truly become a G.o.d recognized by the Tower of Faith. This will not only bring a huge benefit to this universe but also to themselves.”
“Fusion ritual?” Chen Rui pondered, and the [Star-level Enhancement] function option appeared in his mind. The original 1-star enhancement had become an optional 2-star enhancement.
In the upgrade of the Super System this time, the built-in skill was a [Mirror Body], but the original buildings or functions also had been enhanced. Due to time constraints, Chen Rui did not have the time to study them one by one.
The previous 1-star enhancement used Star Power and Faith Power to cleanse and buff oneself, resulting in the enhanced person’s foundation to be more solid. It would be easier to break through the bottleneck in the future, just like the super version of devil fruit. In addition, [Star-level Enhancement] also had the ‘halo effect’ of ‘mutual enhancement’. 2 people receiving enhancement (including Chen Rui, the enhanced subject) would have obvious buffs in their strength within a certain distance. The higher the number of people, the stronger the buff, which had been well tested in the battle. For example, Zola had always been able to unleash power beyond the ordinary when she was next to Chen Rui.
The role of ‘2-star enhancement’ should be as Veronica said. It was integrated with the faith of the Super System, thus becoming a G.o.d recognized by Tower of Faith and further mastering the mystery of Star Conferring Platform’s ‘Galaxy Divinity Statue’.
The price of 1-star enhancement was 100,000 faith crystals, while 2-star enhancement was 10 squares of faith crystals. ‘Square’ was the new unit of measurement of faith crystals. 1 square was equivalent to 100 million faith crystals, then 10 squares were 1 billion. It was 10,000 times the price of a 1-star enhancement. This price increase was really scary, but the pattern of the Super System was that the higher the value, the more powerful the function. Furthermore, Chen Rui’s faith source now was not only the universe of the Super System itself but also the mushrooming magic game teams outside. He was earning both internally and externally. Not to mention 10 squares, even 10,000 squares was not a problem.
“Understood, I will complete this fusion ritual as soon as possible.”
“Okay, Your Highness Divinity King.” Veronica waved casually and walked straight to the Tower of Faith, “I’m going to continue my wonderful journey. Take care of yourself, Zola and the others.”
The distant figure gradually blurred in Chen Rui’s vision. When his vision became clear, the bright morning light came through the window.
The current training ground no longer had the ‘aftereffect’ of excessive fatigue like before which required a whole day to sleep, but he did feel a little hungry. Chen Rui got up from the bed, gently opened the window, and immediately heard a commotion.
In the courtyard, music sounded with a strong sense of rhythm.
Several graceful figures were making various gentle and moving dance moves along with the music, becoming a beautiful landscape.
This was a special program carefully adapted by the little succubus, provided by Catherine from far away in the Dark Shadow Empire.
It was said that this ancient music and dance originated from the Asmodeus Royal Family. It could make the fetus grow more healthily, which was also a precedent for the Demon Realm’s ‘prenatal education’.
Kia somehow got the news that this ancient dance had the effect of ‘seeking for a child’, and all the women believed it.
Therefore, there was this kind of dance every morning and evening. The dance was led by the little succubus while Zola, Isabella, Krobelus were all loyal followers. The rest of the busy people such as Athena and Delia also insisted on partic.i.p.ating every time.
This reminded Chen Rui of the plaza aerobics in his previous life. Even more embarra.s.sing was that this kind of music also sounded all day in the palace of the Fallen Angel Capital.
Wait a moment! Whether it’s a child-seeking dance or a miscarriage prevention dance, why is Alice joining in the fun?
She even brought Duoduo along!
A certain dad’s forehead suddenly burst out with cold sweat. By the way, what is that strange lump of creeping thing? Dodo?
Chen Rui patted his forehead speechlessly. A figure under the courtyard house sat on the ground blankly. The noise and laughter on the side could not attract her attention at all as if she was in another world.
Lonely.
