Chapter 220 The Secret Book of Nine Tribulations!
Manluo and Wright were stunned when Zhou Ze took out two more exquisite wine bottles.
"Zhou Ze, what have you been through all these years?" Wright couldn't help but ask, "Three bottles of such luxurious wine, and you just casually brought them out like that?"
Manluo didn't want to pry into Zhou Ze's private life, but she couldn't help asking, "Did you obtain this by chance, or did you buy it with money or points?"
Zhou Ze laughed, "I've been through a lot and earned a few points. Don't worry, seniors, these points are nothing to me." "A few points—are you even speaking human language?" Man Luo was speechless, and said with a hint of reproach, "You little rascal, don't flaunt your wealth in front of others, or even the best of friends will start to feel envious of you."
Although it was meant as a reprimand, Manlu couldn't help but smile.
Wright joked, "Yeah, it's only because we two are unambitious and just want to coast along that we'd rob you today, haha!"
"I'm not stupid. It's only because the two seniors have been so kind to me that I wouldn't have done this, hehe," Zhou Ze chuckled.
With his current strength and resources, he is capable of protecting himself in the face of the risk of his wealth being exposed. In addition, Manluo and Senior Wright have been very good to him. Without Senior Manluo, he would have been in great danger and would not have been able to meet Senior Wright. In that case, he would have missed the "Pearl of Nirvana".
Without the place of origin, he might still be wasting his life, unlike now, where 200 years have passed and he has achieved immortality, comparable to being crowned a king.
According to his original plan, at most he would break through to immortality and become an ordinary military lord immortal.
"This Thunderstorm Wine is in no way inferior to Five-Colored Stars!" Wright stared intently at the two bottles of Thunderstorm Wine, wishing he could take them away while Manluo wasn't looking.
As a friend of billions of years, how could Manlu not know what Wright was thinking? She immediately put her bottle into the World Ring.
"Wright, you see, if I hadn't introduced such an outstanding little guy to you, you wouldn't have had the fortune to enjoy these five-colored stars, not to mention a bottle of Thunderstorm Wine as a gift. How about you share your bottle of Thunderstorm Wine?"
Manlu smiled and said.
"Dream on!" Wright was speechless. "Let's keep things separate—"
"However," Wright changed the subject with a laugh, "I'm in a good mood today, so I won't argue with a miser like you."
Wright immediately used his divine power to envelop the Thunderstorm Wine, opened it, poured a cup for each of the three, and after clinking glasses, each took a sip.
"Excellent wine!"
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Manluo and Wright were thoroughly enjoying themselves, completely immersed in the experience brought by the fine wine. Zhou Ze also felt good, but he had enjoyed too much in the virtual universe and was not a connoisseur of wine, so he just thought the taste was indeed good.
The wine, which cost millions of points, is not just delicious; it also brings great benefits to ordinary immortal gods.
Seeing that the two were so engrossed in their reflections, it seemed they wouldn't be waking up for quite some time.
Zhou Ze left a clone here to guard the place, which was also for his alternative "divine kingdom teleportation". His main body secretly flew into the F-class mechanical race spaceship and flew towards Earth.
Having not returned to Earth for over two hundred years, Zhou Ze's heart was filled with anticipation and excitement.
"More than two hundred years have passed, and we've finally returned—"
In Zhou Ze's mind, he kept recalling the events of that year. After he transmigrated, he thought it was just a parallel world, but he never expected that he had transmigrated to the world of Swallowing the Stars.
After that, he began practicing martial arts, faced the Great Nirvana, struggled to improve amidst hordes of monsters, then nearly died accepting the truth, and soon after taking Luo Feng as his disciple, he awakened a cheat-like ability...
A flood of memories washed over him, and with a sigh, Zhou Ze felt his state of mind rise once again.
Reaching the third level of mental state signifies reaching the pinnacle in terms of spiritual attainment. Beyond that, it's about gaining more experience and knowledge, and developing a deeper understanding of oneself, human nature, and all things.
The more you know about this world, the higher your state of mind will be, and the stronger your willpower will become.
The further Zhou Ze went in his spiritual journey, the more he realized that the cultivation of one's mindset was endless.
"Continuous improvement and progress"
Earth.
Its appearance is that of a beautiful blue planet, radiating a soft glow in the starry sky, making it look exceptionally beautiful.
Unbeknownst to anyone, an F-class mechanical spaceship was quietly approaching. "Zhou Ze, two hundred years is a very long time for you. Returning to your home planet, what are your thoughts?"
Babata floated in the air, cupping his face in his hands, and looked at Zhou Ze.
"Speaking of which, you were just a little planetary-level being back then. I never imagined that you would break through to immortality in just two hundred years, and even become comparable to a king..."
Babata lay in the void, his two little legs lifting and lowering. Even though he had a physical body, he still preferred to live as a virtual projection.
"Life is unpredictable!"
Zhou Ze sighed, then flew out of the open hatch, facing the entire Earth.
With Zhou Ze's strength, if he wanted to, no one on Earth could discover him.
Instead of immediately flying into the atmosphere from outer space and landing on the ground, he began to radiate his ethereal divine power from outer space.
"Found it!"
With a smile on his lips, Zhou Ze became ethereal, like a fish disappearing into space, silently flying towards the interior of the Earth. At the same time, in a certain ruin of a civilization on Earth, a broken black metal plate flew out without attracting anyone's attention.
Zhou Ze's figure appeared above the ruins, and the space around him was distorted. Even ordinary immortals could not detect him with their naked eyes or mental power.
"The vessel for the Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture—"
Zhou Ze bounced it; it was indeed very light.
"This is the Heavenly Soul Crystal."
Zhou Ze looked at the metal plate in his hand.
This metal plate has six sides, the longest of which is 11.2 centimeters long and the shortest is 3.1 centimeters long. It is a palm-sized black metal plate, but it weighs about the same as a pencil.
"What is this thing?" Babata asked Zhou Ze through his consciousness connection. "It's so strange. Even a small detector worth billions of points can't penetrate it, and I've never seen this material before."
"This is good stuff!"
A slight smile played on Zhou Ze's lips as he manipulated his ethereal divine power to penetrate deeper, overcoming layer after layer of obstacles with a series of booming sounds.
"My child!" A majestic voice resounded in Zhou Ze's mind, and instantly his consciousness was trapped in the illusion contained within that voice. Standing there dumbfounded for a long time, Zhou Ze awoke, shaking his head: "This illusion is truly a dimensional attack!"
Given Zhou Ze's state of mind and will, even the illusion of a cosmic lord could not have made him fall into it without any ability to resist.
But right now, he has absolutely no ability to resist.
He wasn't disappointed, after all, he knew that this was an item set up by a terrifying being who was once a god-king.
"I wonder if Senior Sitting Mountain Guest has noticed anything?" Zhou Ze pondered for a moment, but didn't worry about the outcome.
The main purpose of returning to Earth this time is to obtain the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual.
