In his personal space in the virtual world.

Xu Jingming sat on the sofa. When life comes to this world, it's natural to be intertwined with karma! After sorting out the two greatest karma of my family and my homeworld, Earth, there will be a large number of other trivial karma.

Humans were social animals.

Friends, teachers, disciples, grudges… All kinds of trivial karma didn't seem major, but when added together, they were like countless small chains that wrapped around his body, completely seeping into every part of his life.

I'll sort out these trivial karma. I'll repay my favors and take revenge, Xu Jingming thought.

Thankfully, he was only 500 years old now. Compared to those Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms, he was still very young, and he had much less karma.

"Nine," Xu Jingming said, "how are my friends from Team Pearwood back then?"

Whoosh!

A large amount of information about Yang Qingshuo, Heng Fang, Liu Chongyuan, and Wang Yi immediately appeared in front of him.

"Master, the official members of Team Pearwood have an extremely good relationship with Madam. Over the years, they have achieved quite a bit with Madam's help," Nine explained. "Someone to highlight is Yang Qingshuo. He has the highest achievements on the evolutionary path among the four of them and has already reached Lv. 7."

"Of your friends in your youth, Liu Hai has evolved the highest and reached Lv. 8! He's followed by Yang Qingshuo," Nine explained.

"Oh?" Xu Jingming smiled. "This slave of a child's evolutionary path is actually higher than Lei Yunfang and Tie Lianyun's. He has reached Lv. 7? When did this happen? Why wasn't I aware of this?"

"He just broke through three years ago," Nine explained. "Master, you haven't contacted your old friends since the high-dimensional corruption. All communication with them has been temporarily banned."

"Is that so?" Xu Jingming was stunned.

After the high-dimensional corruption, he deliberately maintained a distance from his family and Earth! He didn't want to stir up any trouble in the virtual world, so he didn't meet his family often. His decision to expand Earth's territory was solely for the sorting out of his karma.

It's been more than 100 years since we last contacted each other? Xu Jingming tapped gently and read the details of his friends.

Yang Qingshuo was Xu Jingming's best friend when he was young.

He was extremely talented in university, and he and Xu Jingming were recruited into the national team. The two buddies made a name for themselves in the World Martial Arts Tournament.

After he retired early, he reached a nadir in life because of his disability. The introduction of the virtual world and the evolutionary method completely changed his fate.

This child's slave treats his son as the most important thing in his life. Xu Jingming looked at Yang Qingshuo's information. It wasn't until his son got married and started a career that he began to truly focus on the evolutionary path.

In the early days, Yang Qingshuo's global ranking wasn't high. Even in China, there were many people who were more dazzling than him. For example, Fang Yu, Tu Ling, Wang Yi, Zhao Fan, Zhang Qing, Zhou Yi, Lei Yunfang, Tie Lianyun, and the others were stronger than Yang Qingshuo back then.

When his son got married and started a career, he was only over 50 years old. He lived alone and completely focused on the evolutionary path! His improvement speed is clearly increasing.

He reached Lv. 7 without much fanfare? Xu Jingming smiled as he read the information. He reached out and tapped gently, inviting Yang Qingshuo to meet him.

Yang Qingshuo was living a happy life. His son, Yang Tao, was married and successful. After 500 years, he had countless children and grandchildren.

Although he was good friends with Xu Jingming and had an extraordinary relationship with the Pearwood Group, Yang Qingshuo didn't establish a corporation. He only established a small studio that served his evolutionary path.

It's my luck to live in this era. I can fight stronger experts to my heart's content and pursue the higher peak of my evolution. Yang Qingshuo was in a good mood.

He had always been grateful to the virtual world and evolution. If it weren't for the virtual world and the evolutionary method, his and his mother's life wouldn't have undergone such a tremendous turn for the better.

Suddenly, he received a call.

"Huh?" Yang Qingshuo was surprised. "Brother Xu?"

Brother Xu has supposedly reached the limits of an Origin lifeform in the past 100 years. It's not appropriate to disturb him at a critical moment in his evolutionary path. Why did you contact me? Yang Qingshuo was puzzled. He didn't know that Xu Jingming had been corrupted; he only knew that it wasn't appropriate to disturb him.

Yang Qingshuo tapped gently and accepted the invitation to head to Xu Jingming's personal space.

After Yang Qingshuo appeared, he looked at Xu Jingming in front of him.

Xu Jingming wore a black robe. Although he had a smile on his face, he exuded an invisible pressure that alarmed Yang Qingshuo. It was like a mortal facing an endless and turbulent sea.

It was fear, and he felt puny. However, Yang Qingshuo had cultivated the evolutionary path for 500 years. He had an extraordinary temperament and could hold his own.

"Brother Xu, I'm a little flustered when I see you now," Yang Qingshuo said with a smile. "Is this the limit of an Origin lifeform?"

I still haven't cultivated my mind well enough and can't control myself. Xu Jingming felt as if he had returned to his youth when facing Yang Qingshuo. His tone became much more relaxed and happy. "Shuo, you didn't inform me that you had broken through to Lv. 7?"

"Miaomiao informed us about 100 years ago that you're at a critical moment on the evolutionary path. We weren't to disturb you," Yang Qingshuo said.

"Oh." Xu Jingming nodded. "An evolver from the same era as me on Earth! Your achievements are already ranked in the top few—impressive."

Yang Qingshuo smiled and said, "I also had Miaomiao's help. I was recruited by the Oohook Chamber of Commerce; they groomed me with their resources."

Xu Jingming smiled and said, "The others also received help, but they're inferior to you."

The Oohook Chamber of Commerce was a regional faction after all. It had a long history and an extremely deep heritage. Even though Xu Jingming was the number one person in the Oohook Star Alliance, the Pearwood Group was still far inferior to the Oohook Chamber of Commerce.

"You haven't found another partner after so many years?" Xu Jingming asked.

"I have a girlfriend," Yang Qingshuo explained. "I'm not in a hurry to get married. Cosmic lifeforms have a lifespan of thousands of years, so there's no need to be in a hurry to get married. Moreover, as you know, my son already has a son, and he has countless children and grandchildren. I even think it's fine if I don't get married for the rest of my life."

"Are you confident in reaching Lv. 8 on the evolutionary path?" Xu Jingming asked.

"I'll take my time figuring it out." Yang Qingshuo smiled brightly. "The more I cultivate, the more I realize that the evolutionary path is indeed vast. I'm happy just improving a little every day. I think it's already a blessing to be able to finish my 3,000 years happily."

Xu Jingming also admired his good friend.

He enjoyed the process of evolution and happily lived every day. Compared to the process, the outcome wasn't that important.

"Shuo, I'm very envious of you," Xu Jingming said with a smile.

"Envious of me? Stop joking." Yang Qingshuo smiled. "You're the greatest leader of Earth's civilization. You've reached the limit of an Origin lifeform and are one of the top figures in the entire cosmic human race."

"I could keep calm and cultivate patiently in the past." Xu Jingming shook his head and said, "But I can't anymore."

"Not anymore?" Yang Qingshuo was puzzled. "Don't Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms have 100,000 years of lifespan?"

Xu Jingming shook his head.

The Ice Wine was probably only enough to last him 3,000 years! The dean and the others also hoped that Xu Jingming could rely on himself to stay lucid within 3,000 years.

He couldn't possibly get the dean and the others to help brew Ice Wine 3,000 years later.

3,000 years! He had to rely on himself to stay lucid.

He had comprehended the Heart Realm Force of a third-realm high-dimensional lifeform. The difficulty was extremely high…

There was no legacy!

All kinds of reasons forced him to choose a life-and-death situation!

"Brother Xu." Yang Qingshuo looked at Xu Jingming. "I know my realm is low, and I'm far inferior to you, but I have a suggestion. You can try it out."

"Speak your mind." It was rare for Xu Jingming to be very calm.

"I think that as long as I improve every day and enjoy improvement," Yang Qingshuo said, "my mind and consciousness will also be happy, and it will also increase the efficiency of my evolution. This is a form of positive feedback. This is a superficial insight of mine."

Positive feedback? Xu Jingming nodded.

The path to becoming a high-dimensional lifeform was much more complicated. When one's mind approached high-dimensional space, they would naturally experience all kinds of distortions. For example, Senior Brother Jane cultivated the Primordial Star Conjecture's Dark volume to obtain a high-dimensional mind.

It was even harder for Xu Jingming to cultivate Heart Realm Force than Senior Brother Jane's path. Heart Realm Force wasn't just limited to high-dimensional minds.

"Make yourself happy," Yang Qingshuo said, encouraging his good friend. He could sense the darkness, coldness, and madness contained in Xu Jingming's invisible aura. This was completely different from the Xu Jingming he knew back then.

"Oh right, I just mailed a gift," Xu Jingming said. "It will probably arrive tomorrow."

"What gift?" Yang Qingshuo was curious.

"One serving of Ice Flower Spirit Liquid," Xu Jingming replied. "There are a total of 90 drops. Every drop can help you for more than three years; there should be enough for 300 years."

Yang Qingshuo was puzzled.

"It's the most suitable cosmic wonder for cosmic lifeforms," Xu Jingming explained. "Ice Flower Spirit Liquid is relatively precious; advanced cosmic civilizations and some large factions use it to groom geniuses."

Although the outside world didn't sell it, Xu Jingming could still exchange for it with credit. There was a limit of 100 servings.

"I can't accept cosmic wonders," Yang Qingshuo immediately said.

"I earn much more a day than a serving of Ice Flower Spirit Liquid. If it weren't for the limited exchange, I could've given you more," Xu Jingming remarked.

"You earn more than this cosmic wonder in a day?" Yang Qingshuo nodded and grinned. "Then, I'll accept it shamelessly."

Yang Qingshuo didn't realize how terrifying the wealth Xu Jingming earned in a day as the greatest obstacle to Hellion plundering.

Over the next few days, Xu Jingming met and chatted with his old friends to understand everything they had experienced. He helped as much as he could. Of course, most of them didn't need his help. After all, Xu Jingming's friends usually had a good relationship with Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing. They had long received the Pearwood Group's help.

Master Liu Hai. Xu Jingming looked at the last person on the list. This was the person who had the greatest impact on him on Earth, so he was the last person on the invitation list.

He reached out and tapped gently, inviting Liu Hai to meet him.
