The Immortal Cultivation Game Has Come True

Chapter 522: Chapter 372: Refining the Red Dwarf Star!_2

“Absorb!”

“Start the 100-year time acceleration.”

[Beep…]

…

A few days later.

The originally vast gaseous planet, because its origin had been completely absorbed, only left a planet matter shrunken by several times.

With the passage of time, as long as the matter of this gaseous planet is still there, it will eventually return to its previous state one day.

“Two Devouring Heaven Fruits!”

Looking at the Game Backpack, two more gourd-shaped fruits that were golden all over and exuded a strong world power had appeared.

Xuanqing’s mouth curved slightly upwards, exuding a hint of a warm smile.

Then.

Repeat the process.

The third Devouring Heaven Fruit!

The fourth Devouring Heaven Fruit!

The fifth… the sixth… the seventh… the ninth… the thirteenth Devouring Heaven Fruit!

…

In the end.

After devouring the thirteenth Devouring Heaven Fruit, all the origins of the planets in this Star Domain, except for the Red Dwarf Star, were devoured.

At this moment.

Xuanqing, remaining in the state of Devouring Heaven and Earth, had come to this Red Dwarf Star, murmuring as he glanced at it:

“I wonder if with my current capabilities, can I devour and refine a Red Dwarf Star?”

It’s worth mentioning that a ‘Red Dwarf Star’ refers to a very unique kind of star.

Why is the Red Dwarf Star exceedingly special?

Apart from the ‘mini’ version, which is not even a tenth of the size of a regular star, there is also the low temperature of the Red Dwarf Star.

Generally speaking.

The core atoms of ordinary stars are constantly undergoing collapse fusion, which releases a huge amount of light and heat energy.

However, the stars classified as ‘Red Dwarfs’ are strange. Although they have a large size, their collapse fusion reaction is very weak.

Therefore, they can maintain a low temperature, reduce energy dispersion, and significantly extend their lifespan.

Simply put!

The red dwarf star has taken the word ‘thrifty’ in ‘budget control’ to the extreme.

So.

He had a feeling that with his current ability, although he couldn’t devour a huge star like the sun, there might be a chance with this downsized version of the Red Dwarf Star!

“Let’s give it a try!”

Xuanqing’s eyes beamed.

If he could devour a Red Dwarf Star, he wouldn’t need to run around looking for planets anymore. Perhaps just absorbing this one would be enough for him to break through.

Then.

He used his gigantic body to hover over the Red Dwarf Star.

When it comes to it.

Xuanqing’s body was now almost as big as a planet, but it was still insignificant in front of the Red Dwarf Star.

You should know.

A regular star is so large in size that if you use the Water Blue Star as a unit of measurement, it has 1.33 million times the volume.

That is… the size of 1.33 million Water Blue Stars.

Even Red Dwarf Stars, this downsized version of a star, is one-tenth the size of an ordinary star, it still has the size of tens of thousands of planets.

“A thousand planets refined into Devouring Heaven Fruits would be enough for me to break through. This Red Dwarf Star has the size of tens of thousands of planets.”

Xuanqing’s roots spread out on the surface of the Red Dwarf Star, looking forward to what lay beneath the boundless surface.

“Huh~”

With a deep breath, Xuanqing manipulated the Swallowing Sky Tree, and the world’s power within his body burst out.

Vroom~

In an instant.

Bountiful illusory roots spread out in all directions, then plunged deep into this Red Dwarf Star.

“Absorb!”

A low shout.

Difficult!

Ardently difficult!

This was the greatest feeling in Xuanqing’s heart.

Although it was much easier than the previous attempt on the sun, it was still beyond his current capacity to devour and refine.

“Use 100-year time acceleration!”

Xuanqing gritted his teeth, muttered silently, since he had attempted it, might as well use time acceleration and give it another shot.

[Beep… -1 trillion treasure coins!]

Accompanied by the deduction of the treasure coins, these illusory roots that pierced into the Red Dwarf Star shook frantically.

A large amount of the origin was absorbed from the Red Dwarf Star.

It worked!

But… the effect was minimal!

A moment later.

After the 100-year time acceleration effect ended, he opened his eyes and sensed the amount of origin he had absorbed this time.

“Sigh~”

Xuanqing let out a long, melancholy sigh.

After the time acceleration, even though origins were absorbed, the quantity was somewhat disappointing.

Almost… um… half the quantity of a single Devouring Heaven Fruit!

If it were an ordinary planet, expenditure of a trillion treasure coins for a hundred-year time acceleration would usually result in the absorption of one-tenth of a Devouring Heaven Fruit.

Yet, the refining and absorption of this red dwarf star yielded only half of a Devouring Heaven Fruit, equalling half the yield of the usual planet refining.

“It’s not worth it. I should just stick to refining planets for now and wait until the Swallowing Sky Tree’s strength increases before attempting to refine this red dwarf star!”

Xuanqing shook his head.

His feeling wasn’t wrong. With the current capability of the Swallowing Sky Tree, indeed it could refine and absorb this red dwarf star, but the efficiency was just too low.

However,

Xuanqing felt

as though there is no need to advance the tree to its perfection. Perhaps, once the progress reaches fifty percent, he should have the ability to absorb this red dwarf star.

“First, I will devour ordinary planets and bring the progress to over half, then I will try to absorb and refine this red dwarf star!”

He thought so in his mind.

Back to physical form!

Xuanqing returned to a normal human form.

Then,

he looked around and saw that all the planets in this star domain had been refined and absorbed by him, leaving only the ‘hard nut to crack’, the red dwarf star. There was no longer any meaning in staying here.

Therefore,

he waved his feather duster gently, disappearing from this star domain in the briefest moment.

…

…..

The vast universe.

Most parts of it are silent and empty.

A Taoist, wearing a robe and carrying a whisk, continued to use the Spatial Rule Teleportation, seeking planets that he could absorb.

After an unknown period of time,

Xuanqing came across another star domain with planets.

The number wasn’t very large, just five or six planets. And there was no star present, these five or six planets only relied on each other’s gravity, spinning and orbiting around each other.

Without any hesitation.

He first began the absorption, then covered the planets with the illusory roots to absorb the origin, finally using time acceleration.

Through this familiar routine of actions,

pretty soon,

the origin of these five or six planets was completely absorbed, and the same number of Devouring Heaven Fruits appeared in his game backpack.

“Continue!”

This time,

Xuanqing didn’t even return to his physical form. Instead, he zig-zagged through the universe with a planet-sized body, teleporting continuously.

…

Swish~

Again and again~

With each teleportation, whenever he encounters a planet that he could absorb, he would stop, and devour its origin.

Time slowly passed by.

…

The number of Devouring Heaven Fruits in Xuanqing’s game backpack continued to increase.

After an unknown period of time!

From the initial dozens… to hundreds… two hundred… three hundred… four hundred… four hundred and ninety-four!

Finally!

Upon absorbing the four hundred and ninety-fourth, he finally stopped his absorption of planets.

…

In an empty dark starry sky,

Xuanqing was sitting cross-legged, his right hand waving. Several Devouring Heaven Fruits were taken out from his game backpack.

Gulp~ He surprisingly swallowed several Devouring Heaven Fruits that were floating by his side, all at once.

Hum, hum~

The grand world power suddenly erupted.

However, in front of the mature Swallowing Sky Tree, the world power of these mere several Devouring Heaven Fruits could still be suppressed.

“Whew~”

With each breath, the erupting world power was divided into two parts. One part was absorbed by the Swallowing Sky Tree, while a smaller part was absorbed by his physical body.

After the refining ended,

“Continue!”

A flash of brilliance crossed Xuanqing’s eyes, hinting at the power of world rules.

Once!

Twice!

Countless times!

Only after there was not a single Devouring Heaven Fruit left in his backpack did he stop cultivating.

“Whew~ What a powerful feeling.”

Though the progress of practice has only increased by fifty percent and is still far from breaking through, he felt his energy had amplified countless times!
