151 Comprehending - 151

Since the beasts were unable to actually affect the material that Zhou Fan brought from the center of the earth, Zhou Fan had to personally build the structures.

Besides that, however, the beasts did everything else. They planned out the entire city, from its walls to its walkways and buildings.

Half the city would be a residential area, while the other would be the academy buildings, along with shops and restaurants.

Of course, many things from the original Huang Long Academy were used as reference.

Once they had finished planning, Zhou Fan used the materials to build the city. Despite the variation of colors in the materials, Zhou Fan changed them to fit the city.

Therefore, the walking paths were still gray and most of the buildings were gray, black, white, or something similar.

The entire process only took a single day, and most of it was spent on the planning. Afterwards, the Huang Long City was finally built.

Soon after, the members of the academy were brought from the yellow dragon building to the city.

Once everyone was settled in, Zhou Fan was ready to leave. After some hugs and some goodbyes, Zhou Fan teleported back to his pagoda.

Although there was no rush, Zhou Fan felt that the grim reaper should make an appearance. Therefore, he sent him down and for the first time, let him do his own thing.

Although he could hardly be considered sentient, he had directives that would make sure nothing bad happened. His strength was at the 4th level of space shattering, so there would be no problem with both Jack and Anna there.

After making sure that the grim reaper could escape once defeated, Zhou Fan stopped paying attention.

Next, Zhou Fan decided to focus on comprehending the cosmic dao. Since he had broken through, he was able to start comprehending it again.

Although he had no clue how long it would take, Zhou Fan sat down and started comprehending.

------------------

10,000 years later, Zhou Fan had only comprehended another 5%. As he moved forward, the cosmic dao seemed harder and harder to understand.

He didn't know how long it would take to reach his limit, but he kept going on anyway.

---------------------

20,000 years later, Zhou Fan comprehended another 5%. He still wasn't at his limit, so he continued.

-----------------------------

30,000 years later, Zhou Fan finally stopped. He had comprehended another 5%, but he hadn't reached his limit.

He simply felt that he was spending too much time in seclusion. After all, he still had to worry about the Zhou Solar System and the Earth solar system.

In total, he had comprehended 20% of the cosmic dao. It was a rough guess, but Zhou Fan felt that the remaining 80% would be thousands of times harder than the first 20%.

Still, the benefits of his comprehension were huge. Not only had he felt new ways to use his power, he felt his overall strength increase by a lot.

Zhou Fan felt that many impossible things would become possible once he reached 100% comprehension of the cosmic dao.

Since 60,000 years had passed, Zhou Fan looked at the strengths of everyone.

Jack had reached the 3rd level of space shattering, while Anna had reached the fourth.

The dragon king's son had reached the 10th level of void traversing after so much time had passed.

His speed was both due to his talent and the increasing Qi in the air. After Zhou Fan had broken through to the 1st level of the inner world realm, the Qi his mortal dao produced had increased by two times.

That was also the reason Jack and Anna had reached so high so quickly. Jack was very close to reaching the 4th level of space shattering, while anna was almost close enough to be considered close to breaking through to the 5th level of space shattering.

The dragon king had rarely been cultivating, while the titanosaur and the monkey king just weren't that talented, causing them all to stay at the same level.

As for the beasts, they had broken through to the 2nd level of space shattering. They hadn't spent a single moment out of seclusion since Zhou Fan saw them, besides the occasional appearances to ensure the academy they were alive.

After sending the grim reaper out to the Zhou Solar system, now at the 5th level of space shattering, Zhou Fan made his way to Huang Long academy.

In the last battle with the grim reaper, Jack had actually made an appearance. After all, Anna was basically alone when it came to defending against him now.

As Anna was being pushed back, Jack appeared behind the grim reaper and stabbed him through with his trident.

Since he had been so unprepared, the grim reaper was instantly injured, and then beaten up by both Jack and Anna before escaping with his soul.

Zhou Fan had to repair his body before sending him back out.

Although Anna had tried to use the soul trapping technique, the grim reaper exploded his body, causing the barrier to be broken, allowing him to escape.

After that battle, Jack had been forced into the spotlight, increasing both his and his race's prestige.

When the meetings occurred at the grand hall, he now stood next to anna.

Soon, Zhou Fan reached the Huang Long academy. As soon as he did, the beasts came out to greet him.

Once they did, Zhou Fan and the beasts went inside and drank some tea. They also talked a bit, but neither the beasts nor Zhou Fan had any new stories to tell, besides the grim reaper battle.

After hearing the tale, the beasts were interested. Even though they had broken through to the space shattering realm, they had never visited the Zhou solar system or heard about the people's strength there.

"If you all are interested, you're free to go whenever. I believe the grand hall meetings have even spoken of you, although they haven't decided to come to the earth solar system yet." Zhou Fan said.
