This feeling? Xu Jingming felt the changes in his body as he stabbed out. He could sense every cell in his body more clearly.
Every move he made mobilized his entire body, and every cell’s reaction became faster and more efficient! His reaction became more agile, and his attacks became faster and mightier.
Although they only appeared a little faster, his strength clearly experienced an increase when every factor was combined.
Is this what it means to have a stronger mind and better control over the body? Xu Jingming whispered. He had read the first treatise of Beam Transformation and knew very well how strong the minds and wills of Lv. 8 cosmic lifeforms were. They could split their minds into billions of pieces, and every cell seemed to have its own will.
When released, the psychic force could interfere with reality.
Xu Jingming returned to the house with his spear and closed the door before quietly going offline and returning to his personal space.
…
In the spaceship in his personal space in the virtual world.
Xu Jingming sat on the sofa and opened his personal combat strength interface—
Genetic Evolutionary Method: Heavenly Python Evolution (92% Intermediate Cosmic Lifeform)
Please Keep reading on MYBOXN0VEL.C0M
Physique: 2.1 million
Technique: Beam Transformation Spear Technique (Lv. 7 1%), Astral Spear Technique (Lv. 6 99%), Footwork (Lv. 6 97%), Shield Technique (Lv. 6 85%)
Basic Combat Strength: 1.05 billion
Energy: 210 million
Combat Bonus: 2250%
Combat Strength: 29.6 billion
I’ve indeed broken through to Lv. 7. Xu Jingming didn’t care about the combat strength and energy data because Earth’s planetary security defense system prohibited energy from being released beyond 9.8 meters.
No matter how destructive an individual was, they were powerless against the planetary security defense system of a basic cosmic civilization before reaching Lv. 9. Only by breaking through from Lv. 8 to Lv. 9—from a cosmic lifeform to an Origin lifeform—would one be able to suppress an entire civilization by themselves after going through a true qualitative change.
In other words, before becoming an Origin lifeform, an individual couldn’t fight a civilization.
I’ve reached Lv. 7, but my Heavenly Python Evolution is still stuck at an intermediate cosmic lifeform’s realm. I can try cultivating and breaking through. Xu Jingming got up and started practicing the evolutionary method in the spaceship hall.
After reaching Lv. 7, he should have a chance of breaking through to become an Advanced cosmic lifeform.

After becoming a cosmic citizen, many of his citizenship rights were protected by the Cosmic Human Alliance, such as his privacy. Even though Xu Jingming was a member of Earth’s civilization, Earth’s civilization couldn’t monitor him. They could only understand the most basic information.
Was Xu Jingming’s evolutionary level Lv. 6 or Lv. 7? That was something Earth knew.
As for the more detailed evolutionary percentages of spearmanship, footwork, and shield techniques, Earth had no way of knowing.
“Cosmic citizen, Xu Jingming (Hunter Cosmic Sector, Oohook Star Alliance, Earth). Male, Lv. 7. Account balance: 1926.2 million cosmic dollars.” A message was naturally sent to Earth via the virtual world network.
The moment the synchronization happened, Earth’s AI informed Earth Alliance and China.

The reason why they knew about the account balances of a person was that as the home civilization, they had the right to tax cosmic citizens. Thus, they naturally had to be kept abreast of any monetary transactions. Of course, most basic civilizations didn’t tax cosmic citizens.
“Lv. 7?” The Earth Alliance Council and China’s upper echelons were shocked when they received the news.
Whoosh.
The Earth Alliance Council urgently convened in the virtual world!
Only Angus—the Alliance’s secretary general—and the five representatives of the council countries attended the meeting.
“Just 47 days before our civilization protection period ends, we received good news that will excite the entire civilization.” Secretary General Angus was in high spirits. “The number one genius on Earth, Xu Jingming, has just broken through to become a Lv. 7 cosmic lifeform.”
The five council representatives were also very excited.
The protection period for them as an emerging civilization was coming to an end, and all the countries on Earth were under great pressure! This was because the envoys from other civilizations would arrive on Earth in 47 days!
Just as everyone was panicking, Xu Jingming broke through!
“This is the first Lv. 7 cosmic lifeform on Earth.” Secretary General Angus’s eyes turned moist.
“He reached Lv. 7 in just a year or so after cultivating the evolutionary method. His potential is astonishing, and he has a chance of reaching Lv. 8.”
“As a Transcendent planetary lifeform genius, Xu Jingming has extremely high potential to begin with. It’s just that he reached Lv. 7 in just a year or so. Xu Jingming’s growth is much faster than his previously deduced rate of growth.”
The five council representatives were also delighted.
“We have to invest more,” China’s representative said. “I think we have to provide Xu Jingming more support.”
“Aye.”
“Aye.”
The five council members made a joint decision. Xu Jingming’s growth speed surprised them. This was the greatest hope for Earth as a weak civilization in the vast universe! Earth naturally had to support him.
They also hoped that this seedling of hope would grow into a towering tree that could shelter more people on Earth.

In the virtual world, the martial arts arena in his personal space simulated a cosmic scene.
On the surface of an asteroid in the vast cosmos, Xu Jingming practiced his spearmanship.
Huh? Xu Jingming received a notification and was a little surprised. Director Zhou?
He tapped gently.
Upon receiving permission, Director Zhou appeared from the void and arrived on the surface of the asteroid.
“Are you practicing your spearmanship?” Director Zhou smiled as he took in his surroundings. The asteroid was only a few hundred meters in diameter, and it was made of gray rock with a relatively flat surface.
“I just broke through. I need more practice to consolidate my insights,” Xu Jingming replied.
Director Zhou’s eyes lit up as he smiled. “It’s such a big deal to break through to Lv. 7, but you’re still so low-key.”
“Director, you are aware of that?” Xu Jingming was surprised.
“Although you’re a cosmic citizen, you’re a member of Earth’s civilization after all. The virtual world updated us with your basic information in real-time,” Director Zhou said. “We found out the moment you broke through.”
Director Zhou smiled happily. “You’re the first Lv. 7 cosmic lifeform on Earth.”
“It’s only been a year or so since Earth made the evolutionary method public. I believe many Lv. 7 cosmic lifeforms will break through in the future,” Xu Jingming said.
“It’s different.” Director Zhou shook his head gently. “They are still far inferior to you.”
“Oh right,” Director Zhou said seriously. “If you encounter any difficulties in your evolution, feel free to tell me. If it weren’t for your breakthrough, I would’ve thought that your progress in both the virtual world and reality was on par.”
Xu Jingming smiled. “In reality, I can only slowly absorb solar energy. My body’s evolution is a little slow.”
“Earth has long prepared an R9 artificial star and a 100,000× gravity chamber,” Director Zhou said. “It’s all in preparation for Earth’s future evolvers. If we had known about your situation earlier, you could’ve used it earlier.”
“R9 artificial star and 100,000× gravity chamber?” Xu Jingming was surprised. This was a very extravagant configuration.
If he bought them himself, he wouldn’t be willing to buy them at such high prices, nor could he afford them.
“It’s only about ten billion cosmic dollars in total,” Director Zhou commented. “Compared to the virtual mainframe and the VR headsets for all citizens around the world… this is nothing.”
“These two pieces of equipment are the basics for the evolution of cosmic lifeforms. They are enough for you to cultivate to Lv. 8. As for the cultivation beyond Lv. 8, there’s nothing Earth can do about it,” Director Zhou said.
“It’s enough.” Xu Jingming was delighted.
A gravity chamber at 100,000× was enough before Lv. 8.
“I heard that after reaching Lv. 8, one’s body can be cultivated to an unimaginable level. It’s even close to Origin Force Transformation,” Director Zhou said with a sigh.
“Yeah.” Xu Jingming nodded.
Cosmic Force was the most basic energy in the universe. All matter and energy were composed of Cosmic Force. Cosmic Force was also unbelievably tiny; it was the smallest existence in the universe.
Just observing them was a huge problem. At the very least, most of the technological equipment in basic cosmic civilizations couldn’t see Cosmic Force.
“A Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform,” Xu Jingming said. “In terms of the body, they have to use all kinds of methods to get their body closer and closer to Origin Force Transformation. During the process of approaching Origin Force Transformation, their body will become even more terrifying. They can even walk on the surface of a neutron star.”
“In terms of the mind, the requirements are almost a hundred times higher than the body’s. There’s only one requirement for the mind: to control Cosmic Force,” Xu Jingming said.
His mental strength could clearly detect a desk, mosquitoes, and other objects at close range. If he was slightly further away, his perception of them would become blurry.
As for Origin lifeforms, their psychic force was needed to control Cosmic Force. It was countless times smaller than an atomic nucleus.
“The mind stirs Cosmic Force and uses it to push the body to the final step of breaking through, allowing them to completely undergo Origin Force Transformation and become an Origin lifeform,” Xu Jingming said. “After becoming an Origin lifeform, many technological weapons can’t injure them even at point-blank range.”
“Yes, I’ve also heard that an attack that can wipe out Cosmic Force is needed to injure an Origin lifeform.” Director Zhou sighed. “But most basic civilizations in the universe don’t have weapons that can wipe out Cosmic Force. Even with such weapons, it’s very difficult to hit an Origin lifeform.”
Xu Jingming nodded.
He had checked the information on Origin lifeforms.
An Origin lifeform criminal had once taken revenge by wiping out a civilization’s eight inhabited planets! The civilization knew that he was coming, but they couldn’t do anything to stop him!
Origin lifeforms traversed space too quickly. In a few minutes, other than those lucky enough to not be on their homeworld, all life on the eight planets was wiped out.
Of course, that Origin lifeform’s crime was made public because he had been captured by the Cosmic Human Alliance and received the punishment he deserved.
After Director Zhou and Xu Jingming had a good chat, the former took out a document and handed it to Xu Jingming. “Jingming, you’re the first Lv. 7 cosmic lifeform on Earth, and you’re also the most talented evolver. Earth will also do its best to groom you. This contains the resources Earth can provide you.”
Xu Jingming looked down.
There were many records in the document. The first item was ten billion cosmic dollars.
“Our Earth has just become a basic cosmic civilization; it’s an emerging civilization.” Director Zhou looked at Xu Jingming. “Our resources are limited, and so is our information. What we can help you with… might not even be comparable to a family from a powerful civilization.”
“It’s enough.” Xu Jingming was very grateful.
Director Zhou smiled and said, “Oh right, you’re now in the virtual world and interacting with other cosmic civilization citizens! However, you have to occasionally return to your hometown’s virtual world to take a look and challenge the Cosmos Tower. Your strength is enough to clear the sixth level of Cosmos Tower. If you don’t challenge it, many people will find it unfair if others do in the future. After all, your strength far exceeds that of the other cosmic citizens on Earth.”
“You’re publicly recognized as the number one evolver on Earth,” Director Zhou said.
“Director, don’t worry. I’ll clear Cosmos Tower’s sixth floor today,” Xu Jingming immediately promised.
…
Therefore, on the day he broke through to Lv. 7, April 13, 2083, he entered Earth’s virtual world and arrived in front of Cosmos Tower.
