The Eternal King inquired, "May I ask, Prophet, what is the purpose?"
The Prophet squinted and said, "I’ve prepared a very powerful superweapon, which could likely annihilate that Planet Guardian God. I need you to pretend that you cannot compete, letting that Planet Guardian God chase you to the Large Magellanic Clouds, and then I will activate the superweapon to completely eradicate that Planet Guardian God without a trace!"
The Eternal King’s eyes lit up and he said, "What kind of superweapon is it?"
The Prophet gave him a sideways glance, "Don’t ask what you shouldn’t. Quickly go execute my orders."
The Eternal King hurriedly replied, "Yes, I will execute the orders right away."
...
Earth, Super Base.
It has been about twelve or thirteen days since Lu Li dispatched super soldiers to participate in the battle.
Aside from the initial report saying that Zhang Qian had destroyed an Eternal Motion Race’s super cosmic battleship combat group, there had been no further news.
Fortunately, Lu Li’s power has been increasing steadily, and his perception now almost covers the entire Milky Way Galaxy range, so he roughly knew what has been happening recently.
Well, nothing happened at all.
Since Zhang Qian made a move, the Eternal Motion Race seemed to be scared and didn’t take any further action.
Lu Li found this somewhat surprising, but also felt it was only natural.
The unexpected thing was, he knew the Prophet was behind the Eternal Motion Race.
Did the opponent actually cease their actions upon seeing him dispatch the superpower army for the time being?
This clearly does not align with the Prophet’s usual style.
As for why it felt natural, it’s because Chen Yun knew that although the Prophet had developed many powerful weapons, so far, he had not provided the Eternal Motion Race with any "forbidden curse" level weapons.
Without those superweapons, the Eternal Motion Race had no ability to contend with his superpower army.
So it was natural to temporarily cease the war.
Unless the Prophet provided the Eternal Motion Race with superweapons.
For example, antimatter weapons.
The consequence of doing so would be that the Galaxy Alliance would also use antimatter weapons in response.
At that time, under the intense firepower, the Eternal Motion Race would no longer be able to take advantage like they do now.
Therefore, Lu Li believed that if the Prophet wanted the Eternal Motion Race to maintain the advantage, he would definitely not take out the superweapons.
Lu Li lay in his chair, eyes closed, perceiving the Milky Way Galaxy, but his mind was thinking about other things.
During these twelve or thirteen days, his power had increased significantly, with an approximate increase of forty thousand stellar forces.
As early as twelve or thirteen days ago, his power limit had already reached fifty thousand stellar forces.
Adding the new forty thousand, he was now stabilized at about ninety thousand stellar forces.
One stellar force allows his perception to cover a diameter of two light years.
Ninety thousand stellar forces translate to a perception diameter of one hundred and eighty thousand light years.
The Milky Way Galaxy has a diameter of about one hundred and sixty thousand light years.
Hence, just now he was able to sense the entire Hanoi situation.
"Only ten thousand stellar forces short of a hundred thousand stellar forces."
Lu Li thought continuously with closed eyes, "Given the current rate of energy limit growth, at most another three or four days, I should grow to a hundred thousand stellar forces. I wonder if having such immense power will herald the seventh deep evolution."
He had been stuck at this "level" for too long, eager to continue evolving.
Naturally hoping that at one hundred thousand stellar forces, he could usher in a new deep evolution.
"Two or three more days then I’ll find out, no need to be anxious for now."
Although Lu Li was somewhat anxious, such matters were futile to worry over and it was better to stay calm.
Suddenly, Liu Kexin’s voice came from beside him, "Do you want some grapes?"
Lu Li still did not open his eyes, "Yes, feed me."
Liu Kexin chuckled silently, "Most people have boyfriends feed their girlfriends, and here you are asking me, a pregnant woman, to feed you."
Lu Li smiled and said, "Doesn’t it just show how special you are, otherwise why would I choose you as my girlfriend?"
Liu Kexin gave a soft hum, "Your mouth is full of mischief."
She said this but was already handing a grape over, "Ah, open wide."
Lu Li opened his mouth and ate the already peeled grape, spitting out the seeds.
As Liu Kexin continued feeding him grapes, she asked, "You’ve been sitting here all day, are you contemplating something?"
Lu Li replied, "Yes, I’m pondering something important."
Liu Kexin asked, "Can you tell me about it?"
Lu Li said, "I’m thinking, if one day I leave this universe, how will you and my parents manage?"
Liu Kexin suddenly fell silent.
Lu Li could sense others’ emotions and knew she felt a bit sad.
He couldn’t help but secretly sigh.
Some things, when they come to that point, are beyond one’s control.
However, one thing was certain: he shouldn’t be "forced" to leave this universe in the short term.
As for future events, no one knew, but Lu Li could clearly understand that once his power became immense enough, he would no longer be able to remain in this universe; otherwise, the immense power would crush the entire universe.
Of course, obtaining such immense power isn’t something that would happen just like that.
Lu Li thought he would have to experience one or two more deep evolutions for that, exactly how many he did not know.
Currently, he had two thoughts.
First, for the seventh deep evolution to come faster.
Second, while this universe still "tolerates" him, to spend quality time with Liu Kexin and his parents.
Apart from these two things, everything else was unimportant.
Just like the current war between the Eternal Motion Race and the Galaxy Alliance, does it matter who wins or loses to him?
In reality, it doesn’t matter at all.
The reason Lu Li was willing to dispatch the superpower army to repel the Eternal Motion Race was purely because of his loathing for the Prophet and to prevent the war from spreading near the solar system, disturbing its peace.
...
Three or four days swiftly passed.
That evening, the stars were dense in the sky.
Obviously, tomorrow was likely to be a sunny day.
Lu Li was spending time with his parents and Liu Kexin as usual.
Suddenly, he inexplicably sensed a strange sensation rising in his consciousness.
That strange sensation clearly informed him that he was about to enter the seventh deep evolution, but unlike before, it didn’t require sleep.
"Hmm?"
While dining with his family, Lu Li’s chopsticks suddenly paused mid-air above a piece of braised pork, his face involuntarily showing signs of joy.
His father, seeing his son’s chopsticks suspending the braised pork in mid-air above the bowl, said a bit speechlessly, "Xiaoli, are you going to eat that or not? If you are, hurry up and put it back in."
Lu Li quickly retracted his hand, laughing, "Just thought of something."
His mother curiously asked, "What is it?"
Liu Kexin turned her head to look, seemingly keen to know what it was.
Lu Li said, "I can’t explain it to you clearly, but I estimate I’ll need to go out for a few days once we’ve finished eating. If you have any issues, just call my name in your heart, and I’ll be able to sense it."
Liu Kexin said, somewhat reluctantly, "You’re going out again? Since you’ve become the ’Eternal Star Lord’, you’ve become busier and busier."
Since becoming the "Eternal Star Lord," he indeed hadn’t been very busy.
The large and small affairs were basically handled by Nuwa and Pangu.
What Lu Li really needed to focus on was that he was on the brink of the seventh deep evolution.
This aspect was almost exactly as he had initially conjectured.
Sure enough, when power reaches a certain magnitude, "upgrades" come.
Most crucially, he had guessed it right.
The limit of this substantial power.
Exactly one hundred thousand stellar forces.
Currently, he’s at ninety-nine thousand stellar forces.
By the end of the night, he will reach one hundred thousand stellar forces.
Which means the "experience" for the "upgrade" is full.
As to why he needs to leave Earth, it’s because Lu Li feared that this seventh deep evolution might have significant effects.
For example, if the energy surges uncontrollably, it might cause immense destruction to Earth and even the solar system.
For the sake of the entire solar system, he decided to evolve far away.
He’s already decided on the place.
Yes, the Large Magellanic Clouds.
After all, the intelligent beings there have been massacred by the Prophet.
Even if the commotion during his seventh deep evolution is significant, there’s no fear of causing wide-scale destruction or impacts.
Lu Li felt a slight thrill in his heart.
Phew, the seventh deep evolution is finally upon us!
