    Chapter 245

    This was not the first time Su Hao had used his spiritual power to follow the rhythm of space.

    However...

    It was the first time he had actively interfered with that rhythm.

    And...

    He succeeded on his very first attempt.

    His spiritual consciousness instantly arrived in an unfamiliar region of space.

    Perhaps...

    This was the Secondary Star that Fu Leyi had mentioned, hidden somewhere in the depths of the universe.

    Within his spiritual perception, the Secondary Star gradually revealed itself.

    At first glance, it did not appear very different from his own world.

    The only obvious distinction...

    Was the enormous number of white points scattered throughout it.

    Compared to those in his own world, these white points were both larger and more numerous.

    According to Fu Leyi's explanation...

    Each white point represented a living creature.

    The larger the point...

    The stronger the life it represented.

    "So it resembles my radar perception..."

    This was Su Hao's first thought.

    Yet after observing for a while, he quickly realized the two abilities were fundamentally different.

    His radar perception could distinguish living organisms through their vitality.

    It could identify different creatures and accurately determine their physical locations.

    Spatial perception, however, possessed none of those abilities.

    Everything simply appeared as identical white points.

    There was no distinction between species.

    Nor could their true positions be determined.

    Within this folded spatial state...

    Two white points that appeared adjacent might actually be separated by an immeasurable physical distance.

    Likewise...

    Two points that seemed unimaginably far apart might actually stand side by side in real space.

    Space itself...

    Was mysterious.

    Irrational.

    Almost completely detached from ordinary logic.


    ---

    Recalling Fu Leyi's instructions, Su Hao extended his spiritual tendrils toward one of the nearby white points.

    To his surprise...

    As his tendrils followed the changing rhythms of space, they suddenly emerged somewhere entirely different.

    Not only had they failed to approach the original target...

    They had instead drifted close to another white point.

    Su Hao fell silent.

    "..."

    "So that's why Summoning is essentially random."

    "It isn't that Summoners deliberately choose their targets..."

    "It's that they can't."

    Each attempt was more like drawing lots.

    You simply followed the rhythm of space until you happened to arrive beside a creature.


    ---

    Su Hao cautiously reached out with one of his spiritual tendrils.

    The instant it touched the white point...

    The white point reacted violently.

    Like a frightened animal sensing danger...

    It instantly disappeared from its previous position.

    Within his spiritual perception, it now seemed unimaginably far away.

    Su Hao frowned.

    "It detected my spiritual tendril."

    "It fled immediately."

    "It probably didn't travel very far physically..."

    "But because spatial perception doesn't correspond to actual distance..."

    "It has effectively become impossible for me to locate it again."


    ---

    Remembering Fu Leyi's instructions, Su Hao did not continue experimenting.

    He had already developed the habit of learning established knowledge first before attempting improvements of his own.

    There was no need to act recklessly.

    He slowly withdrew every spiritual tendril.

    Leaving the folded spatial state behind...

    His consciousness returned to his body.


    ---

    Opening his eyes, he found Fu Leyi watching him expectantly.

    "How did it go, Little Zhong?"

    "Were you able to disturb the rhythm of space?"

    Before Su Hao could answer, she smiled reassuringly.

    "I know you're a genius."

    "But even geniuses rarely succeed on the first attempt."

    "I've never heard of anyone directly reaching the Secondary Star during their first practice."

    "So don't be discouraged."

    "We'll simply try again."

    Su Hao blinked.

    "Teacher Fu."

    "I already followed the spatial rhythm."

    "I reached the Secondary Star."

    "I contacted one of the Secondary Star Beasts."

    "Then I came back."

    Fu Leyi froze.

    "...What?"

    "You... contacted a Secondary Star Beast?"

    Su Hao nodded.

    "Yes."

    "Just as you instructed."


    ---

    Fu Leyi's mind instantly went blank.

    After spending two years teaching this monster...

    She should already have become accustomed to being shocked.

    Yet...

    Some tiny fragment of pride inside her still refused to die.

    It was crushed once again.

    After taking a long breath, she forced herself to remain calm.

    "Very good."

    "Tell me your conclusions."


    ---

    Su Hao organized his observations.

    "The first conclusion is that the apparent distance between the white points has no relation to their actual physical distance."

    "Therefore, the first Summoning is essentially random."

    "The second is that the rhythm of space changes continuously."

    "Maintaining synchronization requires constant concentration."

    "If the rhythm is interrupted midway, the Summoning should fail."

    "The third is that Secondary Star Beasts can sense our spiritual tendrils."

    "If startled, they'll immediately escape."

    "Since there's only one opportunity to establish contact, timing is extremely important."

    "As for everything else..."

    "I still need more observations."

    Fu Leyi nodded approvingly.

    "Excellent."

    "Your summary is very accurate."

    "But I'd like to add two more points."

    "The size of those white points does roughly indicate strength..."

    "But not completely."

    "The true value of a Summoned Beast isn't determined by physical size."

    "It's determined by its abilities."

    "A skilled Summoner combines different abilities to create effects far greater than simple brute force."

    "So don't blindly chase the biggest white points."

    "You might accidentally summon something enormous..."

    "Only to discover it's completely useless."

    She smiled slightly before continuing.

    "The second point is more important."

    "Making contact with a Secondary Star Beast is only the first step."

    "The first Summoning itself is extremely dangerous."

    "Until they've been successfully subdued..."

    "Secondary Star Beasts are violent and highly aggressive."

    "So never attempt your first Summoning without your teacher present."


    ---

    Su Hao nodded before asking,

    "Teacher Fu..."

    "Does every Summoning have to go through such a complicated process?"

    Fu Leyi laughed.

    "Of course not."

    "Only the very first one."

    "Once you've successfully formed a contract..."

    "Your Summoned Beast will actively cooperate with you."

    "After that..."

    "Summoning becomes extremely easy."

    Su Hao nodded thoughtfully.

    "I understand."

    Then he asked another question.

    "In that case..."

    "Can I perform my first Summoning now?"

    "Are there any other conditions?"


    ---

    Fu Leyi covered her mouth and smiled.

    "Our little genius really is impatient."

    "I thought someone as mature as you would never get excited."

    Su Hao simply smiled.


    ---

    Fu Leyi straightened proudly.

    "With me supervising you..."

    "There won't be any problems."

    "Who am I?"

    "I'm a genius Senior Summ—"

    She suddenly coughed awkwardly.

    "...Ahem."

    "Let's go."

    "We'll use the dedicated Summoning Chamber."


    ---

    The Summoning Chamber occupied an enormous underground space.

    Its dome-shaped ceiling and walls were built from exceptionally thick reinforced concrete.

    Judging from its construction...

    Su Hao estimated that even one of his fully powered explosive attacks would struggle to damage it.


    ---

    After entering, Fu Leyi instructed him to remain behind her.

    She stepped forward.

    Raised one hand.

    Closed her eyes.

    Almost immediately...

    The space before them began to distort.

    One after another...

    Massive creatures slowly emerged from the spatial ripples.

    Some resembled wolves.

    Some resembled bears.

    Others looked completely unlike anything that existed on Earth.

    Each radiated tremendous pressure.

    After arriving...

    They quietly lay down around Fu Leyi.

    Su Hao counted carefully.

    There were fourteen in total.

    Every one of them possessed the aura of an apex predator.

    Standing calmly before the fourteen enormous Summoned Beasts...

    Fu Leyi's entire presence changed.

    She no longer looked like an elegant teacher.

    She now possessed the dignity and authority of a truly powerful Senior Summoner.

    Su Hao couldn't help giving her silent praise.

    "Impressive."

    Then another thought crossed his mind.

    "...Though if it came to a fight..."

    "Five seconds would probably be enough."


    ---

    Completely unaware of Su Hao's thoughts, Fu Leyi proudly looked back at him.

    "Little Zhong."

    "What do you think of my Summoned Beasts?"

    Su Hao answered honestly.

    "They're quite good."
