Elder Nangong looked at the divine art rune in shock. He pointed at himself. “Will it still be effective on a cosmic cloud state like me?”

A lot of recovery-type resources existed in the universe. Usually, the stronger the cultivation of the cultivator, the lesser the effectiveness of a rune.

After all, their advanced cultivation level brought about some changes in their const.i.tution. In particular, their bodies contained more energy.

Lu Ze could understand Elder Nangong’s worries. Even when he was weaker, his own Super Regeneration G.o.d Art didn’t effectively work.

He smiled and nodded. “Yes, it will still work. Even a peak cosmic cloud state will recover completely with this divine art rune. It is just that weaker cultivators would recover at a much faster rate.”

Elder Nangong: “…”

The hairs on his body stood on ends.

‘Is Lu Ze implying that a weakling like him, who was merely a level-1 cosmic cloud state, will have few more additional lives? And it is not just one either?’

Elder Nangong took a deep breath and said, “I don’t need it. You should use it on yourselves!”

Lu Ze and his girls had to venture outside most of the time. Having the rune would be essential for their survival.

As for him, he always remained within the Federation. Given his power, nothing couldn’t threaten his life except for extraordinary circ.u.mstances.

Lu Ze curled up the corners of his mouth. “Don’t worry. We already have our own, Elder Nangong. Just take this one.”

He did antic.i.p.ate that the old man would reject it. However, the latter should have no reason to, since each one of them already had one.

Lu Ze has a level-8 cosmic system state cultivation level. Even if he can’t beat the super long worm right now, he will still be able to, once he becomes a peak cosmic system state.

By then, he will have an easier time collecting more one-time divine art runes.

He gave an a.s.surance. “We will get more of these soon.”

Elder Nangong was torn. Even though Lu Ze wasn’t lying to his face, he was still hesitant.

In his opinion, no one can have too much life-saving resources.

Nangong Jing urged him as well. “Grandfather, Lu Ze is right. We’ll be able to get more soon. Just take it.”

After being confronted by Lu Ze’s and Nangong Jing’s firm eyes, Elder Nangong fell silent and finally yielded. “Fine then, I’ll take it.”

The group continued to converse with Elder Nangong for a longer period before they decided to return to Jinyao City.

…

Dao Enlightenment Room.

Lu Ze rested on a cus.h.i.+on and entered his mental force dimension.

In it, he found a green divine art rune and a gray divine art rune, including a blue spirit fruit.

He hesitated between the two divine art runes he owned.

‘Should he just consume the spirit fruit and learn both of the two divine arts?’

There might be a chance he could attain perfect mastery at once.

But then again, he didn’t get any cosmic cloud state beast’s divine art yet.

‘Should he just wait in the meantime and reserve the fruit until he gathers everything?’

Lu Ze thought about it. In the end, he didn’t touch the fruit. He would settle on gaining a beginner mastery of the two divine arts first.

The Little Poison Ball Divine Art was a force to be reckoned with. It was more useful than his Poison G.o.d Art as well.

Also, a beginner mastery of Super Speed Regeneration Divine Art should be significantly better than progressing the Super Regeneration Divine Art. This is a natural consequence since the latter originated from the second map. Of course, it could only be inferior.

Lu Ze soon used a drop of peak cosmic system state super purple liquid. His mental force was dramatically boosted to the point it caused him a headache. Since his senses were also heightened, the pain intensified.

Still, everything remained manageable.

Lu Ze used another blue crystal. It served as a balm to alleviate the painful sensation a bit.

In the next moment, Lu Ze smiled. His advanced ability to comprehend knowledge should allow him to learn everything much faster. It would be even faster than when he learned Sand One Divine Art.

Immediately, Lu Ze used the rune of the Super Regeneration Divine Art.

…

Three days later, Dao Enlightenment Room.

A gray spirit light was circulating Lu Ze. Simultaneously, a gray-colored chi flowed out as a void gray rune was formed.

The rune spun around Lu Ze’s body and merged with him.

At this moment, he gradually opened his eyes.

‘Super Speed Regeneration Divine Art, Beginner Mastery!’

It only took him three days! His speed had become twice as fast.

Lu Ze proceeded to learn the Little Poison Ball Divine Art.

Another three days later, the Poison Ball Divine Art had attained beginner mastery.

At this juncture, Lu Ze stood from his seat and stretched out before he exited the dao enlightenment room.

From the beginning, he never once got out of the room.

Carefully, Lu Ze decided to leave and disappear discreetly, without other people seeing him.

…

Nangong Jing and his girls sat in a row in front of Elder Nangong’s shack. Elder Nangong was facing everyone.

Nangong Jing and the rest of the girls seemed lifeless. Meanwhile, Elder Nangong’s face appeared stern.

“Since ancient times, reproducing has been the duty of the Human Race. You are all the top prodigies of the current generation. Surely, the children you will give birth to are guaranteed to be absurdly talented. They will become the supporting pillars of the Human Race in the future. Do not be self-centered. You have to consider the fate of the Human Race…”

Elder Nangong swept his serious gaze at the girls.

Ever since Lue Xi visited him, the desire to hold his great-grandson escalated. Hence, it became his life goal to educate these kids.

‘Too bad Ze wasn’t here…’

The nonchalant Ying Ying couldn’t be bothered as she watched her cartoons. However, Lue Xi listened throughout. Her face was even blus.h.i.+ng.

‘Having children?’

‘Shouldn’t that mean doing that?!’

‘Sister Hesha and Brother Lu Ze…’

Lue Xi gulped some saliva as scenes appeared in her mind.

Her face became much flushed.

She quickly shook her head.

‘This was too exciting!’

Lue Xi patted her face. She looked at the helpless Qiuyue Hesha and frowned.

…

At this moment, a beam sliced across the air, and a figure stepped foot on the ground.

It was Lu Ze.

…

Lu Ze looked at the lifeless state of the girls. He was stunned.

‘What is going on?’

‘What did they do to make Elder Nangong lecture them seriously?’

At this juncture, he could somehow pick out some words from the vague speech.

‘Children…’

‘Reproducing…’

“…”

‘Sorry for the disturbance, I’ll leave now!’

Lu Ze was so close to escaping, but Elder Nangong sensed his presence.

The old man grinned. “Ze, you’re finally here. Come over, I have something to tell you.”

Lu Ze: “…”

He walked over with a bitter expression and reluctantly sat next to the girls.
