Chapter 209 Teacher Zhou broke through to immortality? Or is it comparable to a king-level immortal? Hong was completely stunned.
Qianwu Universe Kingdom, Qiongyu Star.
In a top-class private room at the Qiongyu Hotel.
As soon as Zhou Ze and Luo entered, they saw Hong sitting there waiting.
Upon seeing Zhou Ze and Luo enter, Hong immediately stood up and smiled slightly, saying, "Teacher Zhou, Teacher—"
"Long time no see, you're getting all formal now—"
Zhou Ze stepped forward and shook hands with Hong: "Speaking of which, it's been two hundred years since we last met in real life."
"Yes, two hundred years may seem like a long time, but it's nothing but a short time in the universe—" Hong smiled slightly, feeling a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both emotion and reflection).
"Teacher, please sit down. Hong, call the waiter to bring the dishes—" Luo instructed.
"Okay, teacher." Hong immediately switched to the virtual projector and began contacting the waiter.
Luo poured Zhou Ze a full glass of wine and said with a gentle smile, "Teacher Zhou, are you really not going to let my friend throw you a grand banquet?"
"In life, there's only one chance to break through to immortality, haha—"
As Luo got to know Zhou Ze better, he became more relaxed after being moved by his interactions with him. Or perhaps it was for Zhou Ze's sake, since Zhou Ze had said he didn't like his disciples being too formal with him.
"Forget it, it's too much trouble." Zhou Ze shook his head. "Besides, I prefer to keep a low profile. I've only been with the Virtual Universe Company for less than 200 years, and I've already broken through to immortality. If this were to become a legend, I'd probably have a headache."
Hong, who was contacting the waiter to order, suddenly froze, as if petrified, his mouth agape.
He stared blankly at Zhou Ze.
"Hong, what's wrong?" Zhou Ze looked at Hong with a half-smile. He seemed indifferent, but was actually a little "secretly flirtatious" and liked to put on an act.
"Teacher Zhou, you've broken through to immortality?" Hong was stunned, wondering if he had misheard.
At this moment, Hong inevitably has some doubts about life. He had promised to work together to establish a foothold in the universe and protect their home, Earth.
You've displayed such astonishing coaching abilities in an unreasonable way, taking in a whole bunch of unparalleled geniuses as disciples. At least their strength is roughly equal, which offers some consolation—
If you're only breaking through to the Domain Lord or even the World Lord level, that's fine. After all, he'd heard Luo Feng and Thor mention that core members of the Virtual Universe Company could directly erase the process of accumulating energy at lower levels using nutrient solution.
But you actually broke through to immortality. How did you manage to break through to immortality? Immortality is so worthless now, is it that easy to break through?
This is immortal!
Generally, only one universe-level being appears in a galaxy, only one realm lord appears in dozens of galaxies, and only one realm lord appears in a thousand galaxies.
As for immortality, according to his knowledge, even the top core members of the five giants, trapped and killed at the peak of the Realm Lord level, their lifespans exhausted, numbered countless!
Luo Feng even mentioned that of the peerless geniuses selected in each Genius Battle, less than 5% survive and only after countless years can they finally break through to immortality.
However, his old friend, with whom he had spent every day on Earth, suddenly broke through to immortality without a word. Even with Hong's composure, it was hard to accept, because it was simply too unbelievable.
"Yes, I just broke through." Zhou Ze nodded with a half-smile.
Although this breakthrough method was somewhat unconventional, he was originally no different from an ordinary immortal except for not being able to burn divine power.
Now that he possesses immortal divine power and a divine body, and can burn his divine body, who dares to say that he is not immortal?
"This...this—"
Hong stammered, even after Zhou Ze's personal confirmation, he still felt like he was dreaming; it all seemed too fantastical, too unreal.
Luo understood Hong's feelings quite well and smiled slightly, "It's not surprising that Teacher Zhou was able to break through to the Immortal Realm so quickly—"
"Compared to his amazing guidance abilities, and the fact that he possessed such abilities even at the Eternal Star level, there's really nothing surprising about it, haha—"
Hong sighed and said, "That's true, but perhaps because I've always been under Teacher Zhou's guidance, I haven't really felt it much. Teacher Zhou's strength, however, is what truly shocks me."
Luo suddenly smiled slyly: "Is this a little hard to accept? Hong, do you know what kind of strength I had when I broke through to the Immortal realm?"
The moment Hong Zailuo spoke, he already had a guess: "Teacher, you said that once you break through, you will become a powerful immortal god, comparable to a marquis immortal—"
Luo stroked his white beard and smiled slightly, his eyes warily glancing at Zhou Ze. Seeing that Zhou Ze didn't react, he sighed, "Teacher Zhou's breakthrough is comparable to becoming a King-level Immortal, while I'm just a Marquis-level one. There's simply no comparison!"
Hong's current computer, which is comparable to a slightly lower-level quantum computer, is now somewhat short-circuited.
He has some understanding of the hierarchy of immortal gods: ordinary immortals, marquis immortals, king immortals, and the cosmic rulers above the king level.
Hong couldn't help but scratch his head: "So, once Teacher Zhou breaks through, he becomes a King-level Immortal, second only to the King of Nations?"
Hong stared blankly at Zhou Ze and asked, "Teacher Zhou, how exactly did you cultivate?"
"How else can we cultivate? Just cultivate normally, right?" Zhou Ze said casually, then looked at Luo and smiled:
"Luo, if you keep bragging about me, I'll lose my bearings and my tail will be wagging in the air—"
Luo said earnestly, "Teacher, I'm not exaggerating at all, it's all true—"
Zhou Ze rolled his eyes and said, "Whatever makes you happy, just don't spread rumors. I prefer to keep a low profile. Showing off will only bring trouble, and being arrogant will only get you struck by lightning."
"Yes, I understand." Luo nodded with a smile. "I thought Hong and the others knew your exact strength, since you told me from the beginning that you were a Realm Lord."
Hong asked with some curiosity, "Teacher Zhou, when did you become a Realm Lord?"
"World Lord? You broke through to World Lord in Chaos City. Breaking through to World Lord is quite easy—" Zhou Ze said casually.
Hong stared in utter disbelief, completely disregarding the presence of his teacher, Luo: "Teacher Zhou, this is going a bit too far with the Versailles style..."
Zhou Ze calmly said, "Really, to be honest, apart from Luo Feng, if Thor and the others had followed the proper procedures and hadn't encountered any strange opportunities, or hadn't stayed in the Primal Secret Realm to limit their level, breaking through to the Realm Lord level or even becoming an Immortal God wouldn't have been difficult for them."
"Actually, you are too." Zhou Ze gestured with his chin towards Hong Dao, "Do you remember the field I guided you in?"
"Actually, if you continue to cultivate your domain according to my method, when you break through to the realm master level, you will understand what it means to achieve success naturally."

"Well, compared to breaking through to the realm lord level, or even becoming an immortal god, it might be more difficult for you to break through to the domain lord level without any extraordinary encounters."
"This depends entirely on your own efforts, but if you want to improve quickly, you can also ask me—"
"Furthermore, Hong, your vision is a bit limited. When are you going to enter the Giant Axe Martial Arts Arena? You should know that for the core members of truly powerful forces in the universe, the most crucial thing is always their understanding of the laws, their comprehension of secret techniques, and, upon reaching the World Lord level, their attempt to create their own secret techniques, etc."
Hong seemed to belittle Zhou Ze, but in fact, he found the words enlightening.
"What the teacher said makes sense." Luo nodded. "Actually, I was planning to have him join the Giant Axe Martial Arts Arena soon. With Hong's aptitude, there's definitely no problem. The reason I had him wander with me back then was just so he could receive my inheritance."
"Things have been pretty much settled over the years—"
Luo looked at Hong and said, "Hong, wait a moment. Come back to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom with me. I'll take you to meet my two old friends. They should have returned from the extraterritorial battlefield in recent years."
As both having earned the title of Domain Lord-level Giant Axe Warrior, Lemonto and Moria are naturally belligerent, frequently venturing into the outer battlefields for life-or-death trials.
"Okay, teacher." Hong nodded listlessly, seemingly somewhat discouraged, but inwardly he was thinking:
I will never keep this glory to myself!
Second brother, third brother, feel the pain!
