Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#955 - Overcoming the tribulation and becoming an immortal

Meng Xiaoyu, as Liang Yue's domestically assigned assistant and secretary, naturally benefited greatly from working for him.

Not only did she get to see Liang Yue, such a unique individual, frequently, but she also inadvertently received many tangible benefits and perks, as exemplified by the recent incident involving her little nephew.

Moreover, every so often, the young lady could accompany the main group on a trip to Xandar, using complimentary slots outside of the planned quota.

Each time, she would receive as much as a million Xandarian credits in activity funds from Liang Yue.

Every journey ended with her reaping substantial rewards.

For instance, the alien plantation near Xiaocheng Farm was something Meng Xiaoyu purchased when she first went to Xandar with Liang Yue, buying a superior alien oilseed plant.

At that time, Liang Yue hadn't yet planted the verdant sapling on his farm, and without the boost from this source of spiritual energy, the land around his farm, though on the cusp of prosperity, was far from being in such high demand.

At best, it was merely a piece of promising investment land that had emerged after solving the water source problem.

Currently, the land Meng Xiaoyu contracted has become the only privately-owned commercial investment area in the vicinity of Xiaocheng Farm.

Furthermore, with the gains from recent trips to Xandar, Meng Xiaoyu's plantation now grows more than just the top-grade oilseed plant with its rich jujube aroma.

On the advice of Aunt Liu, Guna, Tina, and a team of domestic strategists, Meng Xiaoyu has gradually planted over a dozen top-grade tonics and herbs in her plantation, all widely recognized across various civilizations in the universe.

The natural growth effect of these items is far superior to things like ginseng from Earth, and now, with the added boost of the farm's spiritual energy...

It has invisibly become a resource envied by many at home and abroad.

In addition, not all of the young lady's plantation is farmland; several small dormitory buildings and recreational areas were built to facilitate the rest and lives of the workers.

Now, with the rising value of the surrounding land, these small buildings have become rare and highly sought-after resources in the eyes of many.

Because Meng Xiaoyu's plantation is private commercial investment land, the authorities, seemingly to accommodate the young lady's wishes, allowed her to freely manage the use of these dormitory buildings.

Many individuals who were originally not qualified to settle in the vicinity of Xiaocheng Farm but were wealthy, influential, and had complex networks naturally set their sights on these buildings.

Of course, the price for this is that almost all of the output from Meng Xiaoyu's plantation will ultimately be acquired by the country at a reasonable price.

In short, it's all about the exchange of benefits.

......

After dealing with some miscellaneous matters on the farm, Liang Yue didn't linger but strode through the stargate, arriving in a region of space near his own Xianlin Star.

As of now, Liang Yue's cultivation has reached the pinnacle of the human realm. After sparring with several like-minded individuals, he felt that his cultivation and Dao fruit were quite solid.

Although the individuals he encountered in the Holy Grail world might not be considered top-tier among the many great fortune-bearers who could traverse the myriad worlds,

Liang Yue felt that he himself should be considered among the more outstanding of his peers.

Now, with this initial assessment, and considering that his cultivation path and goals have long been clear and promising,

Liang Yue now intends to undergo tribulation and become an immortal as soon as possible.

"I wonder what the world will be like after becoming an immortal."

"I heard that some worlds, after completing the immortal tribulation, can also bestow some kind of creation. But I am currently in Marvel, um, a mixed American comic world.

I wonder if the creation of the immortal realm can descend upon me."

"Moreover, according to the system's permission upgrade prompts, things will clearly be different after becoming an immortal, and some changes will inevitably occur."

"Could it be that it will give me... a map change?"

Thinking of this, Liang Yue couldn't help but frown slightly, but then he suppressed these distracting thoughts.

Looking around, he was currently in a desolate region of space, not far from his own Xianlin Star System, only a few light-years away.

However, this area had no inhabited planets. There were quite a few resources, but they had already been searched and cleared by the exploration army dispatched by Xiao Wu.

It wasn't a busy space lane, and a spaceship probably wouldn't pass this way for decades or even centuries, making it a sparsely populated wasteland, perfect for undergoing tribulation.

"Then let's begin."

With that thought, Liang Yue expanded his form. The aura and power that he had completely contained within his body were also released.

At this moment, both his own magic power and his peak divine sense began to spread outward naturally.

Almost instantly, his existence attracted the attention of the entire Great Universe's will.

Then, in the next instant, countless thick tribulation clouds flashing with dazzling lightning surged out of the surrounding, seemingly deep and serene, space.

In the blink of an eye, these tribulation clouds, carrying a suffocating, vigorous pressure and momentum, covered the entire light-year region centered on Liang Yue!

At the same time, a vast face composed of lightning and thick clouds, measured in star systems, was reflected above Liang Yue's head.

Compared to it, Liang Yue's individual was almost insignificant. Under the gaze of this face, one could perhaps only be measured as dust.

In the other party's dazzling eyes composed of thunder tribulations, he was like the most inconspicuous ant in the world, invisibly causing self-abasement.

However, even though he was undergoing tribulation, striving to transcend the immortal tribulation, Liang Yue was unwilling to be despised and observed by the other party in this way.

So, in the next moment, as his thoughts stirred, his body and mind, which had been in a state of natural extension, suddenly shook.

The magic power around his body surged, and his thoughts and divine sense spread out with all their might. Under the reflection of his entire body and mind, Liang Yue's form and aura also rapidly expanded.

In the process, Liang Yue's entire essence, energy, and spirit were fully awakened, beginning his first full expansion in this Marvel universe!

In almost half a breath, Liang Yue's form swelled to hundreds of millions of miles high and finally settled there.

Golden-purple magic radiance surrounded him, and brilliant rune light bands hung down around him like divine light.

Behind his heart and head, a lush, sky-covering giant tree was reflected in the sky, and its verdant and warm radiance lit up the surrounding universe in an instant.

At this moment, with every gesture, every movement, immense power could be generated from his entire body!

It wasn't that Liang Yue's form couldn't continue to expand. If he wanted to, his dharma body could actually fill the entire solar system he was in.

But simply increasing one's power and size was not a wise move. Like the Ancient One, borrowed things are ultimately not one's own.

At that time, his form would not be as solid as it was now, and his refined magic power would become illusory.

Moreover, doing so would be meaningless...

However, after Liang Yue fully displayed his state, he did not stop his actions.

Silently, a circular space channel appeared beside him.

In the next moment, a tiny figure stepped out of it, precisely his clone, a wisp of his divided soul that had occupied the body of DC's Doomsday!

"Return, I am now undergoing the immortal tribulation, and I am not complete without you."
