Twenty minutes later.
What was originally broad daylight over the valley suddenly turned into pitch black night.
At the same time, Ye Ning's aura suddenly surged.
A figure like the king of the night appeared behind her, making her look profound and powerful.
A breakthrough has been achieved!
Nine grades, nine levels!
This strange change in the world took quite a while to disappear, turning night into day.
Seeing this, Guo Feng suddenly understood why continents like the Spirit Realm and the Chaos Continent, which are flat and round, also have day and night.
Moreover, this pattern holds true.
Because of the law!
On Earth, everything operates according to the most basic physical laws.
Places like the Spirit Realm and the Chaos Continent have transcended the basic physical rules.
It has reached the level of laws.
The alternation of night and day is the alternation of the laws of night and the laws of day.
With this newfound understanding, he gained a deeper knowledge of the universe and the world.
"Humanity has explored far too little of the universe."
"Our observations are all based on the patterns we observe around us and the patterns we experience."
"Just like a frog at the bottom of a well, unable to see the laws beyond the well's opening."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.
A sense of awe for the universe arose in my heart.
For humankind, the universe is an infinite universe!
"Guo Feng, thank you so much! What kind of spiritual fruit did you implant in my body?"
Ye Ning withdrew her imposing aura and hurriedly thanked Guo Feng.
"Breaking through to the Spirit Fruit stage is nothing new. Just let me know when you need to break through in the future."
Guo Feng waved his hand and said, "I'm your personal man, no need to be so polite!"
Pfft...
Ye Ning smiled.
They're laughing so happily!
She rarely smiles, but at this moment she looks like a young girl in the throes of first love.
She then added, "Also, Guo Feng, you really surprised me. You were only at the seventh level of the ninth rank before, but now your aura... is comparable to the ninth level of the ninth rank!"
"Not comparable."
Guo Feng shook his finger, "My spiritual power is at the level of ten thousand jun, which is already at the middle level of the ninth grade, ninth level, which is stronger than yours."
"ah?!"
Ye Ning was shocked. "This is too unbelievable! Do you know how many years it took me to cultivate from the seventh level of the ninth rank to the ninth level of the ninth rank?"
"How many years?"
Guo Feng asked with a smile.
"I've been using it for over twenty years!"
Ye Ning looked unwilling.
This guy levels up like he's eating and drinking; he doesn't need to put in any effort at all!
"You'll get beaten up if you say that."
Guo Feng shrugged. "I've met the City Lord of Yanshan. He was stuck at the eighth or ninth level of the eighth rank for decades or even centuries trying to break through to the ninth rank."
"The City Lord of Yanshan you mentioned should only have a seventh-grade spiritual root, while I have a low-grade saint-grade spiritual root. We certainly cannot be compared."
Ye Ning looked arrogant.
"That's true."
Guo Feng nodded. In recent days, he had also learned about the talent classification system in the Chaos Continent.
The spiritual roots are divided into nine grades: divine, immortal, and saintly, with grade nine being the highest and grade one the lowest.
The corresponding first-grade spiritual root is equivalent to an E-level talent, and the eighth-grade spiritual root corresponds to an SSS-level talent.
A ninth-grade spiritual root is equivalent to a god-level talent.
Above that is the Saint-grade spiritual root, also known as the innate Saint Body.
The higher one's talent, the faster one can cultivate, the easier it is to break through bottlenecks, and the stronger one's combat power.
Ye Ning possesses a lower-grade sacred body, yet her talent is among the best in the entire empire.
The seventh-grade spiritual root of the City Lord of Yanshan is equivalent to an SS-level talent.
Even on Earth, such cases are extremely rare.
"Guo Feng!"
At this moment, Ye Ning suddenly looked at Guo Feng and called out earnestly.
"What's wrong?"
Guo Feng was taken aback by Ye Ning's serious expression.
Ye Ning said, "Our fate today must be a gift from heaven."
She paused for a moment, then said, "I don't care what happens between us in the future, but right now, you're my man, and I need to make some plans with you."
What are you planning?
Guo Feng didn't quite understand.
"Now we are both ninth-grade level nine experts. You still have unlimited potential, and your companions are also strong."
Ye Ning said earnestly, "Therefore, we now need to mediate between the Empress Dowager and the Imperial Brother-in-law, and finally find an opportunity for me to help you ascend the throne and become the Emperor of Yanyang! The only Emperor!"
"ah?!"
Guo Feng never actually wanted to become the Flaming Sun Emperor.
He only wants to resolve the border issue.
Ye Ning's words surprised him somewhat.
He couldn't help but ask, "Isn't the Empress quite good too?"
Ye Ning shook her head: "Although Hua Shangyue is not bad in strength and methods, she cannot compare with you."
"Moreover, we are now beset by internal and external troubles."
"Outside, major empires are embroiled in conflict, and inside, the Chaos Empire is also embroiled in internal strife."
“Among them, ministers including the emperor’s brother-in-law were plotting a rebellion.”
"Guo Feng, the Chaos Continent experiences a catastrophe every thousand years, and I think this one is about to begin. When that happens, widespread suffering and the collapse of empires will be commonplace."
She looked at Guo Feng and said, "Only you seem to be able to give the people of the Yanyang Empire an acceptable future."
"Ah...you've put me on such a high pedestal that it's hard for me to refuse."
Guo Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
What started as a power struggle suddenly escalated into a struggle to save the world.
The pressure suddenly increased.
However, he then waved his hand and said, "It's alright. What you're saying is all just wishful thinking. But if becoming the Emperor of the Blazing Sun aligns with my own interests, we can make some plans."
