Chapter 341: Chapter 216: Advancing to the Unbreakable Realm Depends on Luck (Two in One)_2
"Haha, happy cooperation."
"Mr. Yale, since the transaction is complete, why not visit the Beast Cultivation Main City for a while?"
"No, no, thank you for your kindness, Mr. Qin Shou, but I need to return to Drue Planet..."
"Alright, such a pity. Mr. Yale, if you need to buy battle armor next time, feel free to contact me directly."
"Absolutely, absolutely."
Yale forced a fake smile.
...
After the transaction was successfully completed, Qin Shou didn’t go home. Instead, he rushed back to the Beast Cultivation Main City and eagerly extracted a Constant Star Energy Crystal.
The silver crystal, only the size of a ping-pong ball, slowly transmitted an incredibly pure energy into his palm upon contact, simultaneously blending into the Star Power within his body and permeating his limbs and bones.
Qin Shou raised an eyebrow—sure enough, this thing could indeed speed up his physical transformation in the Vajra Realm.
Sigh... he had promised to ascend to Vajra Nine Stars within half a year. Now it seemed he was going to break his word.
Using Constant Star Energy Crystals to cultivate during the Vajra Realm was extravagance at its peak.
Even if his family owned a mine, they couldn’t indulge like this.
But Qin Shou didn’t overthink it—money is made, not saved.
To become stronger, you have to invest.
...
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two months had passed.
In his room, Qin Shou gradually calmed his heated and surging body, got dressed, and stood up to stretch lazily.
Vajra Nine Stars!
At this moment, Qin Shou felt as though his body was brimming with inexhaustible power.
He lightly clenched his fist, his muscles bulged, and blue electric currents surged wildly across his skin, sparking as they rubbed against the air.
This was the pinnacle strength of the Vajra Realm!
He smiled slightly, walked out of his room, and began arranging the upcoming Dragon Island battles for West City.
Although the Dragon Island conquest was still six months away, Qin Shou needed to prepare for his ascension to the Unbreakable Realm afterward, ensuring nothing demanded his attention later.
Regarding the ascension to the Unbreakable Realm, he’d consulted Big Black Face.
Awakening one’s innate ability wasn’t something achievable through simple closed-door cultivation.
The Vajra Realm represented the combat pinnacle for most humans.
Breaking through the Unbreakable Realm bottleneck required one of two methods.
The first method was sheer luck—activating the innate ability by chance.
You heard right: luck.
Eating, drinking, gambling, flirting, bathing, getting massages...
As long as the timing was right, one might inexplicably ascend to the Unbreakable Realm.
Take Flame Dragon, for example. He hadn’t returned home for a long while, but when he finally did, he shared a meal with Leng Wanbai, felt content, and inexplicably activated his innate ability, ascending to the Unbreakable Realm.
When Qin Shou heard this story, he had been envious for a long time.
If you’re close to your sister, luck tends to favor you.
But this type of person was exceedingly rare—luck is an unfathomable force, and Qin Shou placed no hope in it.
The other method was to experience countless battles, gradually develop one’s physical potential, and activate innate abilities through grindstone efforts, thereby ascending to the Unbreakable Realm.
Especially in life-or-death situations, the likelihood of ascending to the Unbreakable Realm was highest.
Those who ascended through this second method could quickly master their innate abilities and, in terms of combat power, often surpassed figures like Flame Dragon who ascended purely by chance.
A majority of Unbreakable Realm warriors had ascended through this method.
Su Liang ascended only after engaging in a life-and-death battle with the Deep Sea Squid Group.
Simultaneously, his body had been soaked in cuttlefish juice, resulting in his now perpetually blackened complexion—a mark that refused to wash off.
As for Qin Shou, who had consumed several Mutant Beasts mentioned in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the odds of activating his innate ability were undoubtedly high if he diligently slew monsters for a few years.
But Qin Shou wasn’t one to go with the flow.
His next destination: Monster Planet!
Within the Federation, students who ascended to Vajra Nine Stars gained eligibility to venture to Monster Planet for training.
Monster Planet—a place Yale had previously mentioned.
On Monster Planet, Earth humans weren’t the only inhabitants; there were also numerous alien species co-developing the planet’s resources.
Constant Star Energy Crystals were unique to Monster Planet.
Given this, there was no need for Qin Shou to stay on Earth and waste time.
The most critical reason...
West City’s Qin Shou—the man was shameless!
His current reputation wasn’t great.
During his last venture into Earth’s Core World, he’d offended a substantial number of students from the Three Major Cities, and his shady history had already been exposed.
Accumulating wealth quickly wasn’t an option anymore—those people wouldn’t give him the chance.
Upon returning to West City, even Fang Bao and Lin Xiaomei instinctively avoided him, terrified he might set his sights on them.
On Earth, aside from selling battle armor, he had no other revenue streams.
He could only go trouble the aliens now.
Thinking about all this, Qin Shou resolved that upon reaching Monster Planet, he had to uphold his image—he couldn’t be as universally avoided as now.
Leaving Earth meant West City would then fall under the care of Third Uncle and Big Black Face.
Clenching two Constant Star Energy Crystals in his palm, Qin Shou winced in pain.
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it hay.
Human connections are merely mediums of network; you can’t rely entirely on people’s goodwill.
Sigh, still so poor!
...
The next day, after handling all arrangements, Qin Shou brought Leng Wanbai to the principal’s office to request permission to travel to Monster Planet.
"You want to go to Monster Planet?" Qin Long asked in surprise.
Qin Shou nodded with determined eyes, "That’s right—for Earth’s peace, for humanity, we’re willing to give our all to explore Monster Planet and pave the way for humanity’s future..."
"Enough, enough, brat! I heard you made a fortune recently. I bet you’re just eyeing the rich resources of Monster Planet and planning to cause trouble there."
Qin Long shot him a knowing glance, instantly seeing through Qin Shou’s thoughts.
Qin Shou scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled, "Haha, the principal is wise—nothing escapes your vision."
Qin Long cast a glance at Qin Shou, walked to the window, and watered a potted plant.
"Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Monster Planet isn’t human territory. Cause trouble there, and I might not be able to bail you out," he said calmly.
Qin Shou patted his chest in reassurance, "Rest assured, Principal. I won’t cause any trouble there."
"Haha, like I believe you. You scammed this old man out of some prized goods last time, remember?"
Though Qin Long remarked casually, his actions were swift.
He pulled out two passes from a drawer and tossed them to Qin Shou.
"Take these. Next week, go to the Federation Main City—they’ll arrange your trip to Monster Planet."
Qin Shou frowned, "Can’t I leave now?"
Qin Long stared at Qin Shou like he was an idiot, "Do you think the Transmission Array to Monster Planet is always operational? It activates just one day a month. You can go if you want; otherwise, return the pass."
"I’m going, I’m going—thank you, Principal!"
Qin Shou clutched the passes and hurried off with Leng Wanbai.
Qin Long shook his head with a laugh, "That boy... I hope he keeps a low profile on Monster Planet. The alien life there isn’t easy to deal with. He better not end up in disaster."
...
"Xiao Bai, aren’t Transmission Arrays generally unusable between planets? How can they work for Monster Planet?"
Walking along a forest trail, Qin Shou asked curiously.
Leng Wanbai crouched to pick wildflowers along the road, her mood light as she replied, "They say it’s an ancient Transmission Array left behind from a bygone era, far more stable than the ones of today. Only exceptionally valuable Constant Star Energy Crystals can power it, which is why it only opens one day per month."
Qin Shou mused thoughtfully. Then, noticing Leng Wanbai’s unusually cheerful demeanor today, he asked.
"Xiao Bai, what’s got you in such a good mood today?"
Leng Wanbai squinted her eyes with a gentle laugh, "Haha, my Aunt finally paid me a visit. Of course, I’m happy."
Qin Shou frowned—her Aunt? Doesn’t that hurt?
Being this happy about it—you’re weird!
He loudly complained in his mind.
...
Moments later, the two returned to the villa district.
"Xiao Bai, is this your boyfriend?"
A woman in pristine white Battle Armor emerged from a house. She appeared to be around thirty, with fair skin, delicate features, and a hint of boldness between her brows. Her gaze toward Qin Shou was full of scrutiny.
Qin Shou narrowed his eyes—the woman’s stare made him uncomfortable, and he wanted to punch her!
His gaze slid down...
Wow! The joy of adulthood.
"Aunt, I missed you so much!"
Suddenly, Leng Wanbai threw her arms around the woman’s neck, blocking Qin Shou’s sight.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shou staggered.
Damn, it really is her Aunt!
And it’s... big as expected.
