175: Above the Supreme Being, the Laws of the Stars
Time flew by, and the annual check-in quickly arrived.
On this day, Ye Ming opened his eyes.
At the same time, the System's voice sounded right on schedule.
[Ding, the Host has been in the Cultivation World for forty full years. Would you like to check in?]
“Check in!”
[Ding, check-in successful. Congratulations to the Host for receiving one Low Grade Immortal Plant, with an extra reward of Immortal Plant Fertilizer!]
As the System finished speaking, a fruit tree radiating dense Immortal Qi appeared before Ye Ming.
The fruit tree also bore twenty-eight plump fruits. These fruits were especially peculiar, dotted with starlight on their surface, and occasionally one could see many celestial bodies constantly shifting around them.
This is an Immortal Plant?
Ye Ming gazed at the nine-foot-tall fruit tree before him. After half an instant, the introduction for the Immortal Plant slowly materialized beside it.
[Low Grade Immortal Plant: This Immortal Plant is named the Star Fruit Tree. It absorbs Star Power as sustenance. Every hundred years, it yields twenty-eight Star Immortal Fruits. One Star Immortal Fruit surpasses ten years of arduous cultivation for a Loose Immortal, and it is also one of the main ingredients for the Star Origin Immortal Pill!]
After reading the introduction, Ye Ming's eyes immediately lit up. This Star Immortal Fruit was truly a treasure.
If he ate all twenty-eight of them, he would be able to directly Breakthrough to the Seventh Rank of Loose Immortal!
He decided to act immediately.
Ye Ming casually grabbed, and the twenty-eight Star Immortal Fruits immediately broke free from the fruit tree, transforming into twenty-eight streams of light flying toward Ye Ming.
They stopped in front of him, quietly floating before his eyes, like young maidens obediently awaiting his favor.
Ye Ming didn't hesitate; he took one and bit straight into it.
With a “crunch,” a lot of fruit juice immediately splattered from the corners of his mouth.
The sweet and sticky texture surprised Ye Ming. Was this what Immortal Fruit tasted like?
Not bad; the more he ate, the more addictive it became.
Ye Ming ate half a fruit in one bite. In less than a few breaths, all twenty-eight Star Immortal Fruits were completely wiped out!
“Hic~”
Ye Ming rarely burped, and many colorful Immortal Power streams flew out of his mouth.
This Immortal Power was mischievous, like little sprites in a dream, circling around him.
Ye Ming opened his mouth again and sucked the Immortal Power back into his belly.
Because he ate twenty-eight Star Immortal Fruits in one go, a large amount of Immortal Power accumulated in his stomach, causing his belly to swell slightly!
At this moment, he had to Refine all the Immortal Power to Breakthrough to the Seventh Rank of Loose Immortal.
Ye Ming immediately closed his eyes and began Refineing the Immortal Power within his body. He estimated it would take seven days to finish the refinement!
Seven days later.
The Aura around Ye Ming rapidly increased.
*Pop!*
That layer of membrane was easily broken by Ye Ming like a bubble, and his Aura instantly surged by a large margin.
Seventh Rank of Loose Immortal, Break!
But Ye Ming did not open his eyes. Instead, he spent a few more days stabilizing the Aura he had just acquired through the Breakthrough.
Only then did he open his eyes, and a wisp of Starlight flashed across their depths.
“Star Law...”
Ye Ming murmured, looking at his hand with a hint of surprise.
A wisp of Starlight slowly appeared on his palm. Within the Starlight, countless Stars invisible to the naked eye continuously flickered, forming the Starlight that Ye Ming saw.
He hadn't expected to gain the Star Law after eating the Star Immortal Fruits.
He didn't even need to Comprehend it; it naturally formed within his body, just waiting for him to strengthen it!
This Star Law was extraordinary; it existed at the same Rank as his Yin-Yang Five Elements Law!
It was also a Law Above the Supreme. Its primary feature was its powerful attack strength. With this Law, he was the strongest being in the Universe.
Because all the Stars were his weapons and his supply source; he could absorb the Star Origin to restore Immortal Power, and so on!
One must know how numerous the Stars in the Universe were. He only needed to wave his hand, and countless Stars would gather around him to be used by him!
If he cultivated this Star Law to the Extreme, all the Stars in the entire Universe could be destroyed or countless Stars could be born with a single thought!
Such a powerful Law appeared just like that—it truly served him right to become stronger!
The corners of Ye Ming's mouth curled up wildly. Now he had gained another Trump Card!
[Ding~]
With a ding, the System appeared.
[Host's Luck is truly good. The Star Law, which has a One-in-a-billion chance, was actually eaten out by the Host!]
Hearing the System's praise, Ye Ming chuckled and waved his hand, saying, “It's just average!”
“Wait, why didn't your introduction mention that one could gain the Star Law just by eating?” Ye Ming reacted and asked the System with a frown.
This System actually Cut Corners!
[This System didn't expect the Host to be able to eat that Law! That's a One-in-a-billion chance. What use would mentioning that probability be?]
“But I ate it in one go!”
Ye Ming spread his hands, showing the expression of an 'Emperor of Europe' once again.
System: [...]
“Alright, just add it in next time so I can be mentally prepared. Otherwise, suddenly eating a Law would be very annoying!”
Ye Ming chuckled.
[Alright, alright, whatever the Host says. I'll definitely add it next time!]
“That's more like it!” Ye Ming beamed.
It was clear how happy he was to obtain the Star Law.
After finishing his conversation with the System, Ye Ming looked at the Star Fruit Tree in front of him.
Then, with a casual press in the Void Realm, the tree landed on the ground and immediately took root there.
Many Immortal Crystals were piled up here; the geology had long since changed. It wouldn't be wrong to call it Immortal Soil!
Planting this Low Grade Immortal Rank Star Fruit Tree was more than enough!
However, the Cave Heaven lacked Star Power, so he had to use the Star Law to create a Starry Sky within the Cave Heaven so that the Star Fruit Tree could bear fruit.
Without Star Power, it wouldn't bear fruit; it would just Go on Strike!
Of course, going on strike was impossible; the Star Immortal Fruit was still extremely useful to him.
However, only bearing fruit once every hundred years was truly a bit long. A hundred years from now, he wouldn't even look twice at this thing.
Wait, didn't the System give him extra Immortal Plant Fertilizer?
Ye Ming suddenly looked up, remembering the other rewards from the check-in.
So, he quickly opened the System Space.
He saw a Large Vat he had never seen before quietly sitting in the System Space.
Ye Ming took out the Large Vat and immediately exclaimed,
“Good heavens!”
The ten-foot-tall Large Vat stood before Ye Ming, covered in countless streaks of Starlight, and an exclusive Pressure belonging to a Low Grade Immortal Artifact assaulted his face.
Ye Ming was astonished!
A Large Vat was a Low Grade Immortal Artifact—could you believe it?
The key was that it was an extra gift. It could only be said that the System's Scope was grand this time!
Ye Ming silently Gave a Thumbs-up to the System, then went to see what was Miraculous about this fertilizer.
His body rose vertically until he stopped half a Zhang taller than the Large Vat.
He did this because he wanted to see what was inside that required an Immortal Artifact as a Container!
Ye Ming looked down and saw that the Large Vat was filled with Liquid composed entirely of Starlight.
“Star Origin?”
Ye Ming raised an eyebrow. He hadn't expected the fertilizer to be made of Star Origin. How many Stars must have been absorbed to fill such a Large Vat?
