Chapter 1072

Xiao Feng temporarily quit the game, thinking to take a walk around the residential area.

The three sisters at home also learned of this, and they all logged off the game to keep him company.

At this moment it was noon in the real world, and Xiao Feng was still outdoors basking in the sun and training.

His physique, after days of training, was now not much inferior to that of a strongman. His appearance also changed somewhat, his muscles became much more noticeable than before, and his height increased slightly.

These were still secondary; the main point was that, after being tempered by cosmic energy, his genetic information was quietly changing, transforming toward a transcendent level.

Although the degree was not high, with this sign, his future prospects were now limitless!

The three sisters walked out of the house, with Xing Yun Miao and Dun Dun each supporting one side of Mang Mei; the three girls each had their own charm.

One was a mature young woman, one a playful loli, one a quiet beautiful maiden; all were very pleasing to the eye.

Especially when they stood together, they were even more captivating, making it hard to look away.

"Let's go, take a stroll, see how many people are protecting us." Xiao Feng called out, and the four of them walked together along the cobblestone-paved path, strolling around the residential area.

The blazing sun hung high; the three girls held up umbrellas, while only he himself was sunbathing.

While walking, Xiao Feng subconsciously continued to operate the Guidance Technique of the Origin Book to absorb energy.

Walking and training at the same time…… the book didn't say this was possible, but he tried it himself and felt it was fine; he just needed to devote half his attention to control it.

Every strand of energy from the sunlight was drawn into his body, none wasted, all absorbed into his cells.

Not far along, he saw two luxury cars slowly driving out, heading out of the residential area.

Xiao Feng had no interest in cars; he couldn't tell what brand it was, but he guessed it must be worth at least several million.

The driver was a young man who ought to have been arrogant and overbearing.

But now he acted like an honest child, lowering his speed, trying not to make engine noise, and slowly leaving along the residential road.

Hmm…… this person's low profile also had a reason.

Not far away, a squad of soldiers armed with guns was on guard, each with a solemn expression, as majestic as heavenly soldiers.

"What a scary sight, we've turned into a military restricted zone here……" Dun Dun said, a little frightened.

Xiao Feng replied helplessly: "Yeah, and it's likely to stay like this for a long time."

"Can we still make a run for it now?" Xing Yun Miao whispered.

"Why run?" Xiao Feng asked her.

She timidly said: "I'm timid and easily frightened; this isn't the game world, you can't joke about it."

Xiao Feng smiled faintly and said, "It's fine; at least for now we are the ones being protected, they mean no harm."

Although that was the case, he himself actually felt a bit strange inside.

Having someone protect you is good, but if the protection is too tight, it becomes a little nerve‑wracking.

After strolling for a while, Zhang Fan and Li Li also logged off, coming out to join them.

Plus Li Li's girlfriend Shen Jiayue, everyone walked around the residential area together, meanwhile checking how many people were stationed in this locked‑down district.

After making the round, Xiao Feng and the others discovered that the district was strictly guarded from land to shore and even on the sea surface, with an estimated minimum of over 300 fully armed guards on duty!

This treatment…… he no longer knew what level of treatment this was.

Apart from their three buildings, everything else in the district had been cleared out; those other buildings had been taken over to provide rest for some of the on‑duty soldiers.

After half an hour, Xiao Feng and the others met the person in charge here, named He Zhifei, a young man in his thirties with a rather high position.

He chatted with Xiao Feng for a while, explaining that his duty was merely protection and defense, so they need not be nervous.

He also said that if any relatives or friends wanted to be brought over, they only needed to give their name and address, and they could be escorted here to live.

Xiao Feng and the others said nothing more, exchanged a few polite remarks, then returned to their lodgings.

The group returned to Xiao Feng's living room, all wearing odd expressions.

Li Li said, "What is this? Have we now become strategic‑level talent?"

Zhang Fan shook his head and said, "It's not really talent; it's more like a resource. The influence of 'All Heavens' is too vast to leave completely unmonitored. Old Xiao's strength is too great, so this arrangement is already quite lenient—something to be glad about."

Xiao Feng let out a faint sigh: "I still prefer the days when I was free and unrestrained."

Dun Dun pouted: "Exactly, with so many people watching from afar, even going downstairs requires putting on clothes..."

Li Li glared: "Could it be that after Old Zhang and I moved out, you lot at home have stopped wearing clothes?"

"That's nonsense, don't listen to that silly little girl's babbling!" Xiao Feng said helplessly.

However, deep down he actually somewhat agreed with Dun Dun's words.

With people watching from afar, if he kept lying shirtless on a beach chair sunbathing every day, it would be hard not to give something away.

If the higher-ups asked about it, should he speak up or stay silent?

The "Book of Origins" must not be leaked; those who had previously read it all suffered diarrhea and prematurely met their relatives—if it were disclosed, even in the real world they would likely not escape the punishment of fate.

"Hopefully after the server‑wide event ends things can be eased a bit. Sigh, actually some matters we will eventually have to face." Zhang Fan sighed.

Xiao Feng and Li Li nodded at the same time.

In the past month, aside from the attacks by Peerless Under Heaven and the Lord of Light, their offline lives had been very comfortable, with no one disturbing them.

But given the influence of 'All Heavens' and their strength in the game, their days certainly could not remain peaceful like this forever.

'All Heavens' is changing the real world, affecting countless people.

One day, the Blue Star world will erupt with some major events.

And when that time comes, these top‑tier players will inevitably be drawn in!

"When the car reaches the mountain, there will be a road; when the boat reaches the bridge, it will go straight—don't worry, with our luck everything will develop toward the best direction!" Li Li said optimistically.

Xiao Feng neither affirmed nor denied.

He thought of a question and asked the group: "Have you ever tried cultivating in reality?"

Everyone nodded.

Dun Dun said: "I've practiced a few times, but the effect isn't very noticeable, and in order to keep up with game time I basically haven't wasted any time offline."

Zhang Fan also said: "I recently took some time to practice the 《Power of the Giant Dragon》 I bought at a high price from the Dragon Blood Divine Kingdom, and I feel my strength has increased a bit."

The others also each spoke of the changes they had experienced after practicing.

Everyone's training time has been short, so the effects are still minor; Zhang Fan is the most noticeable, having only increased his arm strength by about twenty catties.

Xiao Feng suggested trying to practice Xian Xia while playing games.

Everyone tried it on the spot, but none succeeded; as soon as they went online, their real-world bodies automatically went into hibernation.

This left Xiao Feng puzzled.

Why can everyone else not do it, but he can?

This probably isn't a problem of mental strength.

When he first started using this method to train, he also only had about 170,000 to 180,000 willpower, not much more than Mang Mei has now.

Blind Mei can't do it, but he can; this might… be a matter of talent!

Although he knows nothing about cultivation in the real world, Xiao Feng vaguely feels that he must be someone with exceptional talent!

Old Zhang trained for a while, and his arm strength increased by only about twenty catties.

And he… conservatively estimated that his arm strength had increased by at least three to four hundred catties!

Although there is a considerable gap in training time, the difference in efficiency can still be seen.

"Real-world matters can be discussed later; everyone, go back and prepare for the all-server event, which is about to start." Xiao Feng stood up and said.

After being offline for one hour, not much time remained before the event started in the game world.

"Well, once we all reach level 500 and enter the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, when the time ratio becomes 1:1, we can then properly consider training matters. For now, the event is important!" Zhang Fan stood up and left Xiao Feng's residence.

Li Li also left with his girlfriend.

"Let's go upstairs."

Xiao Feng called out, and together with the three girls he returned to the room.
