Up to 150 meters!
Luo Feng finally stopped completely. At this moment, he felt as if his soul was being crushed by the endless pressure, his consciousness began to blur, and he could no longer move forward even an inch.
"No... I've reached my limit... I need to adjust!"
His mind raced, and instead of forcing himself to stay upright, he decisively began to back away.
One step, two steps... When he retreated to a position of one hundred meters, the suffocating sense of oppression noticeably weakened.
"This spot is perfect."
Chapter 98 The Ancestor Returns?
Luo Feng stopped and carefully felt the pressure emanating from his soul. Although it was still heavy, making him extremely uncomfortable and his head throbbing, it was already at the limit of what he could bear.
Moreover, he keenly sensed that under this continuous pressure, his mental power was like refined iron being repeatedly hammered on an anvil, becoming more condensed and pure! Even the barrier of his sea of consciousness seemed to have solidified a bit!
"This pressure... can actually temper one's mental strength and solidify one's sea of consciousness?"
Luo Feng was both surprised and delighted. This was no test; it was clearly a tremendous opportunity!
"You can cultivate here!"
A bold idea arose in his mind.
He had a strong premonition that if he could persist in cultivating within this corridor of willpower, constantly adapting and breaking through his limits, he could not only greatly enhance the strength of his will and the quality of his mental power, but even…
"I have a feeling that I can break through and surpass the God of War level mental master here!"
An unprecedented light shone in Luo Feng's eyes.
He stopped rushing forward and instead sat cross-legged at the 100-meter mark, actively guiding the pressure of his will to temper his spirit and will, accumulating strength for the final breakthrough!
In the control room, Lu Ming looked at Luo Feng, who was sitting cross-legged in the holographic projection and actively cultivating with the pressure of willpower, and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.
"good."
He nodded slightly.
"Luo Feng's willpower is truly impressive."
One hundred and fifty steps!
In Lu Ming's design, the oppressive feeling of this corridor of will increases exponentially. The first hundred meters are a test for apprentices, but after that, the sudden surge in pressure makes it extremely difficult even for a true planetary-level martial artist to reach the 150-step mark!
Luo Feng's ability to reach this point with his peak War God cultivation demonstrates an unwavering will that far surpasses that of his peers and even rivals that of some ordinary planetary-level beings.
"This Earth is truly wondrous."
Lu Ming couldn't help but sigh again.
He knew that in the early part of the original story, although Luo Feng's willpower was quite outstanding, it was still inferior to those two monsters, Hong and Thor.
Hong, in particular, had already reached the third level of mental cultivation long ago, while Luo Feng at this time should not have truly touched that threshold yet.
"He probably hasn't fully reached the level of 'heart is like a knife' yet; he's just holding on with an indomitable spirit and a belief in protecting his family."
Lu Ming pondered to himself.
"However, the ability to not retreat under such pressure but advance, and even to use pressure to hone oneself... this insight and mentality truly deserve his future achievements."
Watching Luo Feng adapt to the pressure at 100 meters and actively cultivate, Lu Ming's smile deepened.
"Luo Feng should have no problem breaking through to the planetary level in this passage."
Lu Ming looked at Luo Feng, who was getting into the zone in the holographic projection, and nodded slightly.
"Little Yuan."
he called softly.
"Owner."
Qingyuan's electronic voice responded immediately.
"I'll leave this to you. Just guide them according to the established plan."
Lu Ming gave the instructions.
"Luo Feng should have no problem breaking through to the Planetary level in this passage. Once he passes the assessment, I will accept him as a disciple according to the procedures I set up beforehand."
"Understood, Master. Qingyuan will handle everything."
Lu Ming took one last look at Luo Feng in the projection, who was undergoing a test of willpower and whose body was faintly fluctuating with energy, and then left without lingering.
With a thought, the laws of space around him rippled slightly. The next moment, his figure distorted slightly like a reflection in water, and then disappeared silently from the control room. He left the base directly through the divine kingdom teleportation and headed towards the long-lost Lu family.
Having arrived in the cosmos, he had not yet left any divine tokens on Qinglan Star, so he could only travel there by spaceship.
The Lu family today is vastly different from the family he left tens of thousands of years ago.
The Lu family now controls the core areas of several surrounding star systems.
On the numerous administrative and resource planets scattered across the globe, fleets bearing the Lu family emblem can be seen patrolling, presenting a scene of prosperity and flourishing.
"It seems that Mo has not disappointed me."
Lu Ming first sent a short email to Mo through the virtual universe network.
The email was simple, merely informing him that he was about to return to Qinglan Star and instructing Mo to make preparations.
After all, he had not returned for tens of thousands of years.
……
Inside the core temple of the Lu family on Qinglan Star.
Mo, who was dealing with family affairs, suddenly received a notification from a special communication channel, a notification that is only triggered by the most urgent or important information.
When he opened the email and read its contents, he jumped up from his seat, his face instantly filled with uncontrollable excitement and ecstasy!
"Ancestor! Ancestor is coming back!"
Mo's voice trembled slightly with excitement.
Tens of thousands of years!
Since the patriarch left, there has been little news. Only Qingyuan manages the family and issues orders. Although resources have never been cut off, he knows very little about the patriarch's specific situation.
But this did not prevent him, and the entire Lu family, from reaching the pinnacle of awe and worship for their ancestor!
Because all the Lu family's top leaders clearly know one fact: the Lu family nowadays, within the Qianwu Universe, can practically get whatever they want!
No matter which field the family wants to expand into, the existing powers in that field, even ancient families with deep backgrounds, or industries that are subtly involved in the interests of the royal family, will take the initiative to back down at an almost unbelievable speed and with an attitude, paving the way for the Lu family.
It was as if no obstacles existed, and all approvals and resource allocations proceeded smoothly to an eerie degree.
At first, some people suspected that there might be some earth-shattering conspiracy, or that the Lu family had inadvertently become a pawn in the power struggle of some powerful forces.
However, as time went on, this "special treatment" not only did not weaken, but became more obvious and solidified.
The Lu family's smooth development was unsettling.
There's no such thing as a free lunch, and it's impossible for such a huge pie to fall from the sky.
After eliminating all the impossibilities, the only remaining explanation, however unbelievable, can only be the truth.
All of this stems from their mysterious and powerful ancestor, Lu Ming!
Only if the ancestor possessed unimaginable power and influence at a higher level could such a behemoth as the Qianwu Universe Kingdom treat the Lu family with such courtesy, even to the point of... awe!
"We must warmly welcome the return of our ancestor!"
Mo immediately issued a series of instructions through his highest authority, and the entire Lu family's massive machine instantly began to operate efficiently.
"Notify all core members currently stationed outside to return to Qinglan Star as quickly as possible! Prepare a grand welcoming ceremony!"
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his turbulent emotions, his eyes filled with anticipation and reverence.
"Tens of thousands of years... Ancestor, you've finally returned!"
Chapter 99 Return
After some time, a streamlined silver spaceship passed through the atmosphere of Qinglan Star and slowly headed towards the core area of the Lu family.
Looking out the porthole, Lu Ming could clearly see the earth-shattering changes this planet had undergone. Compared to tens of thousands of years ago, Qinglan Star was now more than a hundred times more prosperous!
The towering buildings pierced the clouds, the air routes were orderly, and countless aircraft shuttled between them. The entire planet exuded a vibrant life and powerful energy fluctuations, resembling the atmosphere of a superpower's core planet.
The spaceship finally landed slowly in the huge plaza in front of the core temple.
The square was already packed with people!
Led by Mo, all the core members of the Lu family on Qinglan Star, representatives of affiliated forces, and even some important figures officially dispatched by the Qianwu Universe Kingdom to be stationed here were waiting. The crowd was dark and silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the slowly descending spaceship, their eyes filled with excitement, fervor and awe.
"laugh--"
The hatch opens slowly.
A figure stepped out from the middle, standing in mid-air without using any tools.
It was Lu Ming!
His gaze swept calmly over the crowd below. Tens of thousands of years had not left any marks on him. On the contrary, his restrained and profound aura made people feel insignificant.
"Welcome back, Ancestor!"
Mo, who was at the head of the group, looked extremely excited and respectful. He took the lead in kneeling on one knee, and his loud voice resounded throughout the square.
"Welcome back, Ancestor!!"
The next moment, a roar like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami surged into the sky!
Everyone waiting in the square, regardless of their status, knelt down on one knee in unison, their voices filled with heartfelt reverence and fervor!
Their shouts resounded through the heavens, as if the entire planet was responding to them.
Lu Ming's gaze swept over the dark mass of people below, finally settling on Mo, who was at the head of the group, and he slowly nodded.
"Everyone, get up."
The voice was calm, yet it clearly reached the ears of everyone present, carrying an undeniable authority.
"Thank you, ancestor!"
