Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 5 Breakthrough, Stellar-level Third Order
Upon arriving at Mine No. 5, Qi Yuan was busy settling the hundreds of Lei Yuan clan members and testing the system's functions, so he didn't even have time to check out the personal guard exclusive technique he had just acquired.

Now that everything is in place, I can finally calm down and take a good look at it!

He operated the screen on the armrest of the smart computer, and soon the thing that Lao Wu sent him was opened.

It contains a lot of content. Although it's called a martial arts manual, it also includes a large number of combat secrets and techniques. There are text descriptions and accompanying video footage, which densely fill the entire screen.

"This looks like it takes too much effort."

Looking at the various files crammed onto the screen, Qi Yuan couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"Why didn't that wealthy owner of Thunderstorm Star think of creating virtual universe accounts for his subordinates? It would be so much more convenient in the virtual universe."

Qi Yuan naturally yearned for the almost omnipotent virtual universe depicted in the original work.

However, since his original planet, Leiyuan, had not yet connected with cosmic civilizations, he had never opened an account with the Virtual Universe Company.

Later, he was captured and sold by slave organizations, and had no chance to come into contact with such high-class things.

Even now that he's on Thunderstorm Star, the owner of Thunderstorm Star, who seems to have a lot of money, treats his subordinates quite well. He even gave him a second-tier Force Battle Blade worth tens of millions of Black Dragon Coins without hesitation. However, he never opened an anonymous account for him, which could be done for a few thousand dollars.

It can only be said that, in any world, slaves have no right to talk about human rights.

I'm giving you the Force Blade because you can use it to help me kill enemies; I'm willing to spend any amount of money on it.

However, virtual universe accounts are something that's optional; whether or not to give one depends entirely on the owner's mood.

Rather than relying on the pity of others for your fate, it's better to work harder yourself!
"I didn't transmigrate here to be your beast of burden!"

There is only one way to change all of this: cultivate yourself! Become stronger!

Qi Yuan gathered his thoughts and, enduring his headache, began to sort through the large number of documents Lao Wu had sent him.

Time passed slowly, and Qi Yuan, who had initially found it somewhat tedious, unknowingly became immersed in it.

It wasn't until a day later that he finally managed to roughly sort through the things Lao Wu had sent him.

Although there is a lot of content, most of it consists of accompanying video footage. The real core content is a cultivation technique called "Nine Luminaries".

"The Nine Luminaries, created by the Lord of the Nine Luminaries Realm, includes the primal energy cultivation method 'Nine Luminaries Body Forging' and the accompanying combat secret technique 'Nine Luminaries Heavenly Blade'."

"Nine Luminaries Body Forging" is a cultivation method that describes how to accelerate the absorption of cosmic energy and temper genetic energy through training. It is somewhat similar to the guiding technique that Luo Feng practiced when he first became a martial artist, but its content is much more profound than the guiding technique.

The Nine Luminaries Heavenly Blade is a secret technique for increasing the amplitude of power exertion.

The complete "Nine Luminaries Heavenly Blade" has thirty-three levels. Each level can triple the amplitude of the force exerted.

Once all thirty-three levels are mastered, one can unleash a terrifying 99 times the power, bringing one to within a hair's breadth of the requirement to break through to immortality.

However, Qi Yuan currently only possesses the cultivation methods for the first twelve levels.

"Let's try out this 'Nine Luminaries Body Forging' first!"

Qi Yuan got up, walked to the center of the temporary cave, and stood still. Then he began to recall what he had just seen in his mind.

"Nine Luminaries Body Forging" includes nine sets of eighty-one special movements, which can be used to exercise different parts of the body.

When practicing these eighty-one special movements, it is necessary to use the assistance of genetic energy to stimulate the body's cells to enter a state similar to 'overload'.

While refining the cells, it also fully extracts energy from each cell.

Thus, after the cultivation is completed, the genetic energy and energy in the body cells are greatly consumed, and the body will feel extremely 'hungry'.

If you absorb cosmic energy to cultivate at this time, the speed will be much faster.

"Give it a try~"

Qi Yuan took a deep breath, then slowly raised his hands from his dantian, like an old ape spreading its arms to support the sky. At the same time, his spine relaxed and became flexible, like a dragon exploring the water and rising upwards.

During this process, he followed the methods in "Nine Luminaries Body Forging" to mobilize the genetic energy in the protonucleus to enter the bones, muscles, blood, and even every cell near the spine.

Stimulated by the gene's primal energy, these cells act as if they've been given a stimulant, and their activity rapidly increases.

Qi Yuan felt as if a surge of heat was flowing through his spine, giving him a feeling of boundless energy and an urge to unleash his power!
"Second form!"

Qi Yuan, seized by this impulse, changed his movements, twisting his waist and hips like a millstone, and then lunged forward to throw a punch after retracting his arms.

Instantly, the burning heat surged from my vertebrae, then spread to my shoulders and neck, my arms, and finally into my fists and fingers.

In his perception, he could faintly sense an invisible energy emanating from his fingertips.

"Third form!"

Qi Yuan changed his movements again, pulling his fist back to his waist as if clutching his abdomen. This time, the burning pain shifted to his chest and abdomen.
"Fourth Form, Fifth Form, Eighth Form."

Qi Yuan performed each movement in the "Nine Luminaries Body Forging Technique" and continuously stimulated the activity of his body's cells with his genetic energy.

Although it was his first attempt at cultivation, he was already at the Stellar level and had extremely strong control over his body, so he did not make any mistakes.

During this process, he felt as if a surging heat was constantly flowing through his body, as if he had inexhaustible power.

The surge of power only stopped abruptly after he had completed all eighty-one special moves from beginning to end.

Then, a deep sense of exhaustion instantly swept over my entire body.

The feeling was like reaching the peak of a battle with your wife, and after the excitement quickly dissipated, all you felt was exhaustion and emptiness.

Qi Yuan understood that this was the aftereffect of excessive cellular energy depletion mentioned in "Nine Luminaries Body Forging".

Now is the best time to absorb cosmic energy and strengthen yourself!
Qi Yuan sat cross-legged on the spot, and with a thought, a grain-sized wooden crystal was transferred directly from the system space to his tightly clenched palm.

The Wood Crystal contains a large amount of life force and is a treasure that can promote the evolution of life. It is perfect for replenishing the energy that cells have overdrawn at this time.

"Fortunately, the returned items can be temporarily stored in the system space, otherwise they would be really inconvenient to use."

He first took out the Earth Soul Liquid and poured a large mouthful into his mouth, then tightly held the Wood Seed Crystal in his palm and began to circulate the method in "Nine Luminaries Body Forging".

Instantly, a large amount of energy containing abundant life force began to surge wildly into his body from his palm.

Meanwhile, the cells in his body, which had just overdrawn a large amount of energy and were in a state of extreme 'hunger,' began to frantically devour the incoming energy as if they had gone mad.

Every wisp of energy was devoured the moment it entered the body, at an unbelievable speed.

After continuously absorbing a large amount of life-giving energy, the cells in Qi Yuan's body, which had been starving and depleted, began to become full again at an extremely fast pace.

Even after returning to its original normal state, each cell still seems to be 'eating' as if it hasn't had enough to eat.

Time passed slowly, and the energy of the wooden crystal was completely absorbed.

It was at this moment that the cells in Qi Yuan's body, which had 'devoured' a large amount of Muya Crystal energy and were now bulging and round, finally seemed to have reached a certain limit and began to rapidly transform.

As a large amount of impurities are expelled from inside the cells, each cell becomes 'slimmer' and stronger, and the arrangement between cells becomes tighter and more compact.
Every cell is constantly transforming, until it eventually triggers the evolution of the entire body!
"Boom~~~"

Within Qi Yuan's dantian space, surging genetic energy continuously flowed from various parts of his body, then converged and compressed within the dantian space.
"Crack!"

With the final contraction, the entire dantian space roared!
Immediately afterwards, a miniature 'star' emitting a dazzling light was formed!

In addition to the two existing micro-stars.

At this moment, in his dantian space, two slightly larger and one slightly smaller, a total of three miniature stars are orbiting each other, constantly rotating.

The bottleneck of the third-tier stellar level that had trapped the original body for who knows how long was easily broken through at this moment!
My new book is launching! I humbly request that you all read and add it to your favorites!
