Chapter 133: The Flow of Ten Thousand Threads (Third Update)

Extreme Martial Arts Academy.

A spaceship beneath Mist Island?

An intelligent life form named Babata?

Planetary level, stellar level, cosmic level, domain lord level, realm lord level, and the immortal level beyond realm lords?

The Qianwu Advanced Cosmic Civilization Empire, the Black Dragon Mountain Intermediate Cosmic Civilization Empire, the Silver Blue Elementary Cosmic Civilization Empire, all within the Milky Way.

Earth is but a drop in the ocean?

To apprentice under the Immortal level?

And yet, he died?

“Whoever hesitates is a fool!” Upon hearing Qin Ming’s words, Thunder God slapped his head. “With no master around, no one to supervise us, and only the four of us in this sect, such a great opportunity — of course we should become apprentices!”

“The rules will be set by the four of us!” Hong Ye chuckled.

Qin Ming and Luo Feng exchanged a glance and silently smiled.

Babata, however, was displeased, repeatedly stomping inside Luo Feng’s spatial ring. “These two little rascals! Just wait until I properly educate them.”

Without lingering, Qin Ming returned home.

As for Hong Ye and Thunder God, Babata naturally left behind a clone to watch over them.

Back at home, the atmosphere was lively once more.

“Brother, I don’t want to go to school anymore. I want to quit!” After dinner, Lulu sat beside him and said.

Obviously, she had already asked their parents and was refused.

“No way!” Qin Ming shook his head. “Why do you only think about quitting school?”

“I want to focus on martial arts!” Lulu said. “Brother, just like you back then, you were only an intermediate student but didn’t hesitate to drop out. You rose rapidly and are now the richest and strongest person globally. My physical fitness has already reached the level of a beginner War God. What use is school anymore? Besides, last time I accidentally misjudged my strength and punched through the wall. It scared my friends so much they no longer want to play with me!”

Qin Ming couldn’t help but smile wryly. “I am me, you are you. How can we be the same? Lulu, remember, going to school isn’t just about exams; it’s about knowledge inheritance. Language helps you cultivate depth and understanding, to interpret meaning and appreciate the beauty of words. Without this, if someone hands you a secret manual, how can you comprehend it, let alone cultivate? History teaches you about the past, to understand what once was, to know your roots and origins.”

He spoke tirelessly.

“As for me…” Qin Ming continued, “We were under the threat of fierce beasts, with survival crises looming. It wasn’t just everyone fearing for themselves; threats were constant. Naturally, I had an unshirkable duty to persist in martial arts and fight beasts in the wild!”

“Excuses!” Lulu pouted in dissatisfaction. “Brother, good brother, I just don’t want to go to school anymore.”

“No!”

“Well, I’m going anyway!”

“I dare you!”

“Hmph! Tomorrow I’ll go to school, tear down the teaching building first, then the office building, and if I’m not careful, the principal might end up with broken arms and legs. Don’t blame me then!”

“Are you threatening me?” Qin Ming glared fiercely, radiating a formidable aura that made Lulu shiver. Tears welled in her eyes. “If it’s a no, it’s a no. Why be so fierce?”

Qin Ming quickly toned down and patiently said, “Just focus on school. You can interact more with peers and make some friends. Look at me — I don’t even have a close friend. How lonely is that!”

“What kind of friends? They all flatter me, fawn over me, and I get annoyed every day!”

“I see. Quitting is an option, but I will hire a tutor for you. That’s my bottom line!” Qin Ming said. “You’ll have lessons scheduled like normal school days.”

“Fine then!” Lulu pouted and gloomily returned to her room.

“Why don’t you two at least try to persuade her?” Qin Ming looked at his silent parents beside him and sighed.

“She cries, throws tantrums, and even threatens suicide. Not even your mother can calm her down!” Qin Yicheng shrugged. “What can we do? Only you, now with some clout, can scare her!”

“The son’s the real powerhouse — no wonder he’s the strongest in the world!” Mom gave a thumbs-up.

“It’s all your spoiling!” Qin Ming said.

“You were the same back then!” Qin Yicheng laughed. “We wanted to control you but couldn’t. You just dropped out. Now it’s better — no matter what, Lulu’s afraid of you!”

“Fine, I’ll be the villain then!”

Night deepened as Qin Ming boarded the war machine.

“This intelligent war machine, you don’t have first-level access,” Babata’s projection appeared, scanning before connecting directly to the war machine’s network. “I’ll modify it for you!”

“All intelligent war machines worldwide probably have backdoors left by their creators. But knowing his character, he wouldn’t pry.” Qin Ming smiled. “The circumstances were special before; he had to be cautious.”

“As long as you understand!” Babata said. “Done. The permissions have been adjusted. No one can enter this war machine without your approval.”

“Now, let’s arrange your training schedule.”

“You’re currently at Planetary Level Nine. The next step is preparing to break through to Stellar Level.”

“Second-level domain. You must have sensed fluctuations in spatial laws; otherwise, reaching this level would be impossible.”

“To feel spatial law fluctuations at the planetary level—I still find it hard to believe!”

“You must know, two of the most difficult cosmic laws to comprehend are space and time. Yet you innately awakened a spatial talent, the legendary spatial teleportation, able to teleport instantly at the planetary level!”

“The teleportation range expands as your cultivation improves!”

“You’ve also comprehended the spatial domain. Within the teleportation range, the domain naturally extends. As the domain strengthens, so too does your understanding of spatial laws!”

“You are truly favored by heaven!”

“The old master was a mentalist who cultivated the secret art ‘Control Space’ but never unlocked the mystery of teleportation. Yet you…”

Babata grew increasingly excited. “If the old master could teleport, how would he have died? If he hadn’t died, how could I be in this state now?”

“Fate, destiny, and luck!” Qin Ming laughed.

“It’s all fate!” Babata sighed deeply, then stared intently at Qin Ming. “Heaven has granted you the strongest talent. You must not waste it. I’ll watch over you closely from now on!”

“Good!” Qin Ming said. “My hope is to stand at the pinnacle of the universe, to behold the magnificent cosmos and its ultimate wonders!”

“Ha ha ha, great ambition!” Babata’s spirit surged. “Great ambition brings great motivation!”

“Before that, I must warn you!”

“Never reveal the teleportation technique, not even to Qin Ming for now!”

“The stakes are too high. If powerful beings in the universe learn this, they will surely enslave you.”

“Remember, remember!”

“The spatial domain is another matter; though difficult to comprehend, it’s not impossible. With your spatial domain in combat, you can easily dominate peers. Besides, I possess many other spatial secret arts!”

“Do not use teleportation except in life-or-death situations!”

Babata spoke with utmost seriousness.

“I have a faint sense of this. I am always cautious when teleporting. Even Hong Ye and Thunder God don’t know about it!”

“Good. Caution prevents mistakes!” Babata nodded approvingly. “The old master’s strongest spatial secret art was ‘Control Space’, a body-movement technique for mentalists. In the end, he only had a faint chance of unlocking teleportation.” He grinned. “The ultimate ‘Control Space’ technique is teleportation. But you… sigh!”

“Enough, enough!” Babata shook his head. “You must still cultivate spatial secret arts to conceal your teleportation.”

“‘Control Space’ alone won’t do!”

“But there’s also the Illusory Step!”

“The offensive secret art ‘Sky-Cleaving Blade Technique’!”

“And the ‘Ten Thousand Lines Flow’ that aids comprehension of the cosmic spatial origin law. This is a terrifying offensive technique; once mastered deeply, it’s extraordinary!”

“Plus, the ‘Detailed Explanation of Spatial Fundamentals.’ You must read, understand, and master this—it’s the foundation of spatial knowledge!”

Babata laid out the plan briefly. “Come, merge your consciousness with the intelligent wristwatch. I’ll take you into the virtual space where learning is more convenient.”
