Chapter 1078: Another Adventure
Ning opened his eyes in outer space, floating next to the sun. It had been many years since he had come up here to improve his physical strength.
This was the body that Nigel had given him. He was improving it as it was about time he left his Inner world and went back to the outer world.
If possible, he wouldn’t want to, and he even felt that he wouldn’t need to for the longest time. However, he didn’t expect some small problems to pile up, all of which required him to go out again.
Emma had grown to be about 14 or 15 years old both mentally and in physique, despite being over 3 hundred thousand years now, and was finally in her rebellious phase.
She would frequently get mad at Ning over nothing and kept on blaming her parents for not having any friends. It was because of them that she was now so strong and slowly aging, and as such, she couldn’t have any friends at all.
Ning had told her she could make friends with anyone on the planet, but she didn’t like that idea. Everyone would usually be too nervous or reverent around her, and she did not find that to be friendship.
So, Ning had to go out and find other people that wouldn’t act like that around her, who she could be friends with.
That meant, he was going to have to find an entirely different planet with many people of its own that he could bring in here for her to have friends.
Given how much energy was needed to do so, he was going to have to absorb a lot of energy.
Another problem was with his 3 beasts. Sorlus, Blue, and Night hadn’t had any friends aside from their small group and they were desperate enough to find some partners of their own.
In fact, even the calm and collected Night asked him to help them go to some other place where there were females of their species.
It would take way more many years for the beings on this planet to evolve to become dragons and phoenixes, so Ning had to go out for that as well.
Another problem was the fact that in sun was slowly deteriorating. While it would take billions of years for the sun to fully finish burning itself off, Ning couldn’t wait for that time.
He needed to change it frequently so that he didn’t get into a problem where another Will would capture him and he would be gone for millions of years while the people of this world simply died in that time.
Finally, the last reason why he needed to leave was simple. He had witnessed a million total reactions of every single type he could find and now, he was one step closer to unlocking the Chemical Energy.
The only thing left for him to do to unlock it was to gather 1 Septillion energy, and that sort of energy was not something he could gather while simply remaining in this world.
So, he was preparing to leave once again.
He returned back to his family and met up with them. “Alright, I’m all prepared to leave,” he told the few people that were there.
“Are you sure you you’ll be gone for long, master?” Blue asked.
“Mm… no, not really,” Ning said. “I will be staying outside for a long time, but time will move so much slower for you guys that you will barely even miss me.”
“What are you talking about missing?” Emma asked. “Aren’t you going to be right here?” She pointed to the other Ning that was there with them.
“I will be with you, but he won’t,” the other Ning said, pointing to the real Ning.
“I mean, it’s the same thing,” Emma said.
“Emma!” Ely spoke sternly. “Don’t talk to your father like that. He’s going out to find friends for you.”
“Hmm, fine,” She said, pouting slightly.
“Come on, give me a hug before I leave,” Ning said to his daughter, who hesitated a bit. Ning ignored her hesitation and walked forward to give her a hug on his own.
Only after she was hugged that Emma finally reciprocated back with a small hug from her as well.
Ning hugged Ely and kissed her once before moving away. “Alright, see you in… I don’t know, a month or two?” he said and disappeared.
He reappeared out in space, in the middle of nowhere.
“Huh?” he thought as he looked around. “Wasn’t I in the sky of some planet? What happened?”
“Oh, well… that sucks. I was hoping to be on a planet when I started,” Ning thought as he looked around.
“How much does an astral chart cost by the way? Just for this galaxy,” Ning asked.
<55 Quadrillion Energy>
“Status,” Ning spoke.
[Status
Name: Ning Ruogong
Energy: 31.2 Quintillion Energy
Skills:…]
“Oh, I absorbed quite a bit while I was near the sun, huh?” Ning thought and quickly bought the astral chart.
With a 5.24 Trillion energy cap every day, Ning had acquired a lot of energy and had bought many of the things that had disappeared when the system had seemingly been reset.
“That’s a good planet to start with,” he thought. “I haven’t seen that type of energy since Genesis. That should be fun.”
Ning closed the astral chart he had just bought as he figured out where his next destination was going to be.
“Do I waste my energy?” he thought for a moment. In the end, the amount of time it would take to fly to his next location would take him a long time, so instead, he decided to simply open a portal to that location.
“Let’s go on a new adventure then.”
