Chapter 179 Infinite Light

On the summit of a snow mountain, Xu Jingming lay on the glistening snow, gazing at the terrifying sun high in the sky.

He was completely immersed, feeling its beauty.

Xu Jingming had many insights on his evolutionary path. Some were fragmented, and he couldn't integrate them before. According to the explanation in the first part of *Hua Guang*, the five volumes of spearmanship could ultimately be unified, but that was only at the final stage of the eighth realm.

But upon seeing the terrifying sun, Xu Jingming saw another path! A path that was countless times grander than 'Xuan's'!

In comparison, Xuan's path was just a remote trail, a very small part of this path.

"Going all-in, pursuing the limits of speed, that's Xuan's path."

"The broad road before me is what I should learn." At this moment, Xu Jingming was completely in the mindset of a student. He looked up at the terrifying sun, devoutly learning the knowledge contained within.

As for forging his own path?

He was just a student! A tender junior who had only cultivated for a little over two years, he only needed to learn with a pious heart at this moment.

Only when he had accumulated an incredibly deep foundation would he be qualified to carve out his own path.

"What kind of great existence could create such a phenomenon?" The more Xu Jingming studied it, the more admiration he felt.

The previous phenomena of all living things, the flow of water, the way of accumulating soil, the way of starlight, igniting the light of the heart, the flowing light spear technique, the insights into the rivers of stars, the insights into the triangular spacetime cone, the light of the blazing sun...

All these insights naturally integrated.

In the face of the new comprehension, the previous insights became nourishment, allowing this new comprehension to continuously grow stronger.

Time passed day by day.

"He has less than ten days left in his exploration." At the Star River Group, Origin life observer Nochene once again turned his gaze to the seventh planet in the Hunter Cosmos Domain, looking at Xu Jingming. "He's lying there motionless, comprehending the Primordial Star?"

"Nochene, you're really concerned about this young man." A tall, thin Origin life observer noticed the position of his companion's gaze and smiled. "His exploration period is almost over, and you're still paying attention to him."

"We came to this mysterious land to recruit young geniuses." The chubby observer sighed. "Yet in 34 Cosmos Domains, we haven't recruited a single one in the last six months! I think the threshold doesn't need to be too harsh. As long as they're close enough, we can recruit them and give young geniuses a chance."

"There's no need. Better to have none than to have someone inadequate," said the third observer.

"Look, this young man has been staring at the sun in the sky. Is he observing the Primordial Star?" The tall, thin Origin life observer shook his head and laughed. "The Primordial Star? Is that something he can comprehend?"

"One of the three strongest inheritances of the human race, it's extremely difficult to get started!" Observer Cang Yu also nodded.

As Origin life observers, they were well aware that among the opportunities on the seventh planet, three great opportunities represented the strongest three inheritances of the entire human race, and the entry requirements for these three inheritances were extremely harsh!

…

"I've comprehended it."

Xu Jingming said softly.

After lying on the snow for sixteen days, on March 9th, Xu Jingming used his previous insights as nourishment, integrated his understanding of the terrifying sun before him, and finally comprehended a system that could barely be considered complete.

*Whoosh.*

Xu Jingming then sat up cross-legged.

"I've comprehended it in my heart, but it still needs to be proven through practice," Xu Jingming thought to himself. "And I also need to practice, so that the seventeen top factions can see my comprehension."

With only a few days left until the end of the exploration period, Xu Jingming had not given up on the opportunity to be recruited by a top faction.

The situation of the Blue Star civilization required him to seize every opportunity to move upwards.

The stronger he became as an individual, the better he could help his hometown.

Sitting cross-legged on the snow, Xu Jingming mobilized the cosmic energy in his body. He saw this energy spread out, circling Xu Jingming in rings. In the process of flowing, it naturally absorbed sunlight! While absorbing, it also transformed this sunlight into his own cosmic energy.

Absorb, assimilate!

Absorb again! Assimilate again!

Gradually, a huge ring of energy formed. This ring of energy was absolutely round, incomparably perfect, surging with vast and terrifying power.

"In theory, I can continue to absorb external power, but my mind is already at its limit." Xu Jingming stopped absorbing sunlight. He felt this ring of energy. "This system that I comprehended can be called… Infinite Light!"

"Of course, I've only touched the surface of 'Infinite Light.'" Xu Jingming looked up at the sky. "It's far from the terrifying sun before me."

*******

Xu Jingming seemed to calmly display the ring of energy, but this scene set off a huge wave among the seventeen top factions in the observation space!

"He observed the Primordial Star and actually comprehended it?"

"And the level of comprehension is quite high. He's definitely made it past the entry level!"

"He has only cultivated for a little over two years, and he was only watching the virtual 'Primordial Star' phenomenon on the seventh planet. He could comprehend enough to get started?"

"In the path of the Primordial Star, his talent is truly terrifying!"

"He has only cultivated for a little over two years, yet he comprehended the Primordial Star?"

The Origin life observers of the seventeen top factions were somewhat shocked. Precisely because their status was high enough, they were even more clear about what the scene Xu Jingming was performing meant.

The three Origin life observers of the Wu Ancestral Star were now looking at each other.

"He was comprehending the Galaxy River before, right? Speaking of which, he has some fate with our Wu Ancestral Star. We almost recruited such a genius."

"He only comprehended a bit of the Galaxy River. According to our rules, if he hasn't even made it past the entry level, we can't recruit him. We didn't do anything wrong."

"That's right, but it always feels like a pity. After all, he's a genius who can comprehend the 'Primordial Star'!"

The Wu Ancestral Star and the previous Mother River Academy were both in complex moods.

An extraordinary genius was destined to be unrelated to them.

After all, Xu Jingming had only comprehended a bit of the rivers of stars and the triangular spacetime cone. It was normal for them not to recruit him.

But at this moment, the three observers of the Star River Group were somewhat anxious.

Observer Cang Yu looked at Xu Jingming and said anxiously, "He's comprehending the Primordial Star. Looking at the scene he's performing, the level of comprehension is quite high. This is an absolute genius! Such a genius also has a comprehension level of 7.2% in the Blazing Sun Chapter of *Fire of Doomsday*. We should recruit him."

"Should we try now?" The tall, thin Origin life observer said hesitantly.

"We are qualified to invite him."

The chubby observer shook his head and said, "But he's now comprehending the Primordial Star! The Primordial Star Research Institute is also qualified to invite him. Once the Primordial Star Research Institute issues an invitation, if we compete, which side do you think this young man will choose?"

The other two fell silent.

"To put it another way, do we have the guts to compete?" The chubby observer shook his head.

"That's the Primordial Star Research Institute, one of the three great factions," Cang Yu sighed.

"We wouldn't dare to compete. Competing would only be humiliating ourselves," the tall, thin observer also shook his head.

They were very clear about the difference between the Star River Group and the Primordial Star Research Institute.

Although the outside world said that there were a total of seventeen top factions in the human race, in reality, there were three factions that were above the other fourteen.

Because these three factions possessed living Supreme Realm existences.

"Throughout the long history of the human race, about twenty Supreme Realm existences have been born, but due to various factors, the other Supreme Realm existences have died. Only three Supreme Realm existences have survived to this day, and these three are also recognized as the three most powerful Supreme Realm existences in history," the chubby observer sighed. "The evolutionary paths they have studied are also recognized as the human race's three strongest inheritances."

After becoming a Supreme Realm existence, they still had to continue researching and exploring ways to improve!

Even Supreme Realm existences were divided into strong and weak!

In history, some Supreme Realm existences were even unable to resist the passage of time and died of old age. Others died due to other factors.

But the three present ones! They had experienced various wars and crises, and their years of survival were also extremely long. Judging solely from their various performances in history, these three were recognized as the most powerful.

"Alas, it's said that Origin lives are qualified to join the seventeen top factions and become official members," Cang Yu said. "But in reality, almost every Origin life wants to enter the three strongest factions—the Primordial Star Research Institute, the Eternal Scholar Pagoda, and the Spacetime Islet."

"The three great factions have extremely high entry requirements, selecting the elites among Origin lives to recruit. The remaining Origin lives will enter the other fourteen factions," Cang Yu said. "Some people even believe that the three great factions limit the number of recruits in order to allow the other fourteen to continue their inheritances."

"Yes, who wouldn't want to enter the three great factions when they first have the choice?" The chubby observer also nodded.

"The three great factions have very harsh training, and the resources spent on training each member are also huge. This limits the number of recruits," the tall, thin observer said. "But a genius who can comprehend the Primordial Star has slipped through our fingers… The Star River Group's review meeting will definitely investigate this matter and ask us why we didn't recruit him. I think we need to have a unified story."

The tall, thin observer looked at his other companions.

"We need to have a unified story," Cang Yu said. "Let's say that because he's comprehending a legendary opportunity, we slightly raised the threshold, requiring him to reach a comprehension level of 8% in the Blazing Sun Chapter of *Fire of Doomsday*."

They both looked at Nochene.

"Alright," observer Nochene nodded. "I will unify the story. But no matter what, our Star River Group missed this genius. Originally, he should have come to our Star River Group."

"It's just a genius. So what if he becomes a ninth-order or even a tenth-order Origin life?" The tall, thin observer shook his head. "Our Star River Group has thousands of tenth-order evolutionaries. We don't need one or two more. In short, let's have a unified story."

"We can also wait and see. If the Primordial Star Research Institute doesn't send an invitation, we can invite him again," Cang Yu said.

"It depends on whether his level of comprehension meets the requirements of the Primordial Star Research Institute," the tall, thin observer also said.

The chubby observer remained silent.

*******

Observation space.

At the Primordial Star Research Institute, three Origin life observers were carefully watching the energy ring Xu Jingming was performing.

"He's comprehending the 'Primordial Star'?" The three observers looked at each other.

Soon, they received the virtual world network's appraisal information—

"Number 230534, comprehending the Primordial Star, comprehension of the core first chapter of *Primordial Star Conjecture*, 'Light Chapter', 8.7%."

This news still surprised the three observers.

"He's comprehending the first of the nine core chapters?"

"A seventh-order Star Domain life, only watching the virtual Primordial Star and he comprehended the core chapter of *Primordial Star Conjecture*? And the comprehension level is 8.7%?"

"Did you see the intelligence? He has only cultivated for a little over two years and has already comprehended the Light Chapter to 8.7%. It's clear that he has an unbelievable talent in this chapter!"

The three observers of the Primordial Star Research Institute were somewhat amazed.

They had stayed here and seen too many geniuses, and they had long been numb to it.

But this genius was too dazzling!

He was comprehending the strongest inheritance of the entire Primordial Star Research Institute—*Primordial Star Conjecture*!

The entire Primordial Star Research Institute had many inheritances. They possessed most of the human race's evolutionary inheritances and scientific knowledge systems! But among the many inheritances of the Primordial Star Research Institute, the most important was *Primordial Star Conjecture*.

Because the founder of the Primordial Star Research Institute, that Supreme Realm existence, had spent endless years to write *Primordial Star Conjecture*, and he was still constantly researching and writing new chapters.

"Normally, a genius who only comprehends the entry level of the ordinary chapters of *Primordial Star Conjecture* can be recruited. He's comprehending the core chapter, with a comprehension level of 8.7%! I don't think there's any need for discussion."

"He's only 31 years old and has only cultivated for a little over two years! Among the geniuses recruited by our Primordial Star Research Institute, he's in the top ranks. There's no need for any discussion. Recruit him quickly."

"Then let's set off."

The three observers quickly reached an agreement.

…

Xu Jingming sat on the top of the snow mountain, carefully experiencing the terrifying and powerful force possessed by the ring of energy after performing it.

Suddenly, a huge gate of light appeared in the sky.

Xu Jingming looked up and saw three figures walking out of the huge gate of light. The aura of these three was vast and terrifying, and their appearance naturally enveloped every inch of space in the entire mysterious land.

Xu Jingming was excited. Were they here to recruit explorers again? Was it him?

He was a little nervous and uncertain.

"The aura of these three…" Xu Jingming realized that something was wrong. He had seen explorers being recruited twice before and had seen Origin lives, but he had never seen such a vast aura.

Just from a remote glance, Xu Jingming judged.

These three surpassed all the Origin lives who had appeared before.

It was like knowing at a glance that the sun was much more dazzling than the moon! The three who had appeared at this moment were much higher in the level of life than the previous observers.

"The Primordial Star Research Institute has really made a move."

"This genius has extremely high talent in the Primordial Star aspect."

"The Primordial Star Research Institute is different. All three observers are tenth-order Origin lives!"

The other top factions were also somewhat envious at the sight.

There was nothing they could do.

The Primordial Star Research Institute, the Eternal Scholar Pagoda, and the Spacetime Islet were the three factions that were qualified to look down on the other fourteen.

When these three recruited official members, their selection was strict, choosing the best seedlings! Then, with the best resources! And with the guidance of a Supreme Realm existence… naturally, the strong became stronger! Making these three factions completely surpass the other fourteen.

"Hmm?"

Xu Jingming felt a sense of urgency in his heart at this moment because he saw the three figures in the high sky flying towards the summit of the snow mountain where he was.

"They're here. Is it me?" Xu Jingming looked at the three.

*Whoosh!*

The three tenth-order Origin lives of the Primordial Star Research Institute landed on the summit of the snow mountain together, smiling as they looked at Xu Jingming.

"Number 230534." The leading stern Origin life smiled and said, "We formally invite you to join the 'Primordial Star Research Institute'. May I ask, are you willing?"

Xu Jingming looked at the three people before him and said solemnly, "I am willing. It's my honor."
