Swallow the starry sky, grind to become the strongest in the universe

Chapter 125 Acknowledgment of the Second Law, Guidance from the Lord of Darkness

After returning to the military base, Yu Duan officially began his seclusion.

He studied and learned the various secret techniques and combat skills selected for him by his teacher, the Lord of Darkness, drawing inspiration from them.

"The Seven Spears of Suiyan, with such profound and ethereal artistic conception... Creator: King Suiyan? Never heard of him."

"Cang Yue's ultimate power, what a fierce intent..."

Yu Duan immersed himself in the study of various secret techniques, drawing inspiration from a hundred schools of thought to perfect his own "Opening Up" sword technique.

Every day, I am immersed in the contemplation of endless light and the fundamental laws of time.

In the blink of an eye, several years have passed.

Inside the military base, on the island in the middle of the lake where Yu Duan resides.

A blazing light descended with the pressure of the fundamental laws, and brilliant white light and secret patterns swirled in the void, emitting a rich fluctuation of the fundamental laws.

"Hmm? It's that immortal king from the island in the middle of the lake. It seems that his cultivation of the fundamental laws has also been recognized."

"For us, not to diligently study the higher laws is to waste time."

Several immortal kings residing in this area were alarmed by the oppressive force of this primordial law.

Yu Duan has been in the battlefield outside the region for more than two hundred years.

However, the time spent at Base 6 was very short, only two years.

Therefore, none of the princes living nearby had ever met Yu Duan.

The only exception was the person in charge of the No. 6 military base, Yu Xinwang.

"Is it eternity? Isn't he immortal because he broke through the laws of light?"

The Desire Queen was somewhat taken aback. When she first saw Yu Duan, the Cocoon Light Armor he was wearing was radiating a strong aura of divine power.

Inside the palace on the island in the lake, Yu Duan opened his eyes.

"To be acknowledged by the fundamental laws of light is a pleasant surprise."

Normally, gaining recognition from the fundamental laws of light is quite simple; one only needs to understand the variations of one of the fundamental laws of light.

However, Yu Duan has basically not studied the mysteries of the fundamental laws of light over the years, and only recently gained some insights when creating secret techniques.

"Creating secret techniques is not so easy after all... especially since my goal is to create the ultimate martial art, which is still a long way off."

Yu Duan reflected that he had gained valuable experience in the military base over the past few years.

All the insights gained from honing his skills on the battlefields beyond the borders have been integrated into the sword technique "Opening Up," which can be considered a minor achievement and can be regarded as a top-level ultimate skill.

"I can go and ask the Lord of Darkness for guidance."

……

Virtual universe, Thunder Island.

On a peak in the Central Mountain Range, in a quiet courtyard.

As soon as Yu Duan entered the courtyard, he saw the Lord of Darkness sitting cross-legged in the air.

Before the Lord of Darkness, countless complex patterns of laws intertwined, vaguely forming a complex black behemoth.

If you look closely at the scales of the black behemoth, you can see the secret patterns on each scale, outlining the contours of mysterious star systems.

"teacher!"

Yu Duan respectfully bowed.

"How's the progress on creating your own secret technique?"

A faint smile appeared on the Lord of Darkness's face, and the deep dark runes in front of him dissipated as his gaze fell on Yu Duan.

"Teacher, I should be considered to have achieved something. I should be considered to have created a top-level secret technique. Please correct me."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Darkness nodded slightly: "Show me how to use it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire courtyard blurred for a moment, and then the world changed, and the figures of Yu Duan and the Lord of Darkness appeared in the vast and deep boundless starry sky.

"is teacher!"

After Yu Duan finished speaking, he closed his eyes halfway.

A moment later, a longsword of time appeared in Yu Duan's palm.

"laugh!"

Sword light burst forth, a magnificent interplay of the laws of light and time.

The leap of light, the eternity of time (stillness)... the mysteries of these two laws of change are combined perfectly under this sword.

A dazzling sword light burst forth, small yet striking against the deep starry sky, instantly tearing open rifts in space and time, stretching for tens of millions of kilometers.

"Good, your understanding of the freezing of time is already quite high. Being able to wield 'the immortality of time' to this extent, it seems you have found your own path."

The Lord of Darkness rarely spoke such a long sentence.

Clearly, the Lord of Darkness was very satisfied with his understanding of the laws of the End.

Regarding the fundamental laws of time, the original body, who has been staying in Chaos City for many years, has studied the Chaos Stele once, and is much stronger than it was more than two hundred years ago (more than seventy years in Chaos City).

Regarding the fundamental laws of light, although Yu Duan has only recently received recognition from the fundamental laws of light, it is a very high level of recognition, far surpassing the so-called peak realm lords.

Taking the recognition of higher-level laws as an example, generally speaking, passing through the 15th floor of the Sky Bridge will grant one the lowest level of recognition of higher-level laws.

In the original novel, Luo Feng only gained the recognition of the laws of space after he had mastered the ability to pass through the 18th level of the Tongtian Bridge. The two are not comparable.

"Does your move have a name?"

"Some teachers are called 'pioneers,' which means to open up one's own path."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Darkness nodded approvingly.

Sure enough, his disciple had finally found his own spiritual power.

Previously, although Yu Duan had a strong will, he lacked a certain 'mental power' and did not seem to have a will that he had honed himself.

This is most likely related to the special circumstances of his disciple. The primordial universe always gives birth to various miracles, and for certain beings favored by the will of the universe, they may even be directly bestowed with secret techniques.

Perhaps the special circumstances of my disciple are related to his will.

But now, this drawback is gone.

“Very good, this ‘Opening’ sword technique is qualified to be called a secret technique. Of course, there are still many areas that need improvement.”

From the perspective of the Lord of Darkness, even the so-called top-tier secret techniques are naturally full of flaws and shortcomings.

"From now on, you will cultivate in this space. I will set up opponents for you to address the shortcomings of your secret techniques."

"Furthermore, you are too weak in the application and control of the power of laws."

As the Lord of Darkness finished speaking, the deep starry sky vanished and reappeared in the courtyard.

Inside the courtyard, a strange interplay of black and white, with the light of day flickering, creates a mysterious and enigmatic atmosphere.

Inside the courtyard, statues of all shapes and sizes stand and are placed haphazardly.

"These statues were carved by your eldest and second senior brothers when they were practicing their skills in applying the laws."

"The materials used for these statues range from E9 to A1 grade, from hard to fragile."

"Next, you will also be sculpting a statue, using your self-created secret technique. You must unleash its full power."

"You'll be considered qualified when you can sculpt an A1 statue that fully embodies the essence of your secret techniques."

The Lord of Darkness pointed to the many strange statues casually placed in the courtyard.

In Yu Duan's eyes, these statues were mysterious and complex, with every pattern and line carved on them containing endless profound mysteries.

Now, Yu Duan can clearly see that these statues were entirely created by the two of them.

The statue, which exudes an air of 'arrogance,' 'invincibility,' and 'wildness,' is most likely the work of the eldest disciple.

The other statues, which contain 'bloodshed', 'killing intent', and a sense of madness, were carved by the second senior brother, the Netherworld Venerable.

"Yes, teacher!" Yu Duan quickly bowed and replied.

The Lord of Darkness nodded slightly, and then his figure disappeared from the spot.

This courtyard is reserved as a training ground for Yu Duan.

The Lord of Darkness will also keep an eye on things, but will not stay here so as not to interfere with Yu Duan's secret training.

"So these statues were used to hone the skills of applying the power of laws."

With Yu Duan's mastery of the laws, once he unleashes his full power, his sword can easily tear open countless cracks in space and time.

The so-called E9 grade material, a material that even a ninth-level Realm Lord would find difficult to shake, was no different from tofu under Yu Duan's sword.

If you unleash your full swordsmanship, the material of the statue might shatter before the blade even touches it.

"To sculpt a statue is to conceal the sword's edge, to internalize the power of the laws within the sword's blade, to achieve a state of effortless mastery. The teacher's teaching method is indeed unique."

As a time traveler, Yu Duan clearly remembered that this part was not included when the Chaos City Lord was teaching Luo Feng.

No wonder the Lord of Darkness was able to teach the Lord of Youhou.

As for the Lord of Chaos City, if he hadn't met Luo Feng, the future lord, he probably wouldn't have been able to guide a being at the level of a universe master.

"Let's try out the secret duel space that the teacher prepared for me first."

With a thought, Yu Duan consciously controlled the virtual universe.

In an instant, the courtyard was transformed back into the deep starry sky it had just been.

"Om-"

Spacetime ripples distorted, and countless rays of light converged.

In the blink of an eye, the figure of a Star Clan powerhouse materialized.

The Starlight Clan are energy-based life forms. Both men and women are beautiful, and starlight life threads condense within their life core.

This is an extremely powerful material, and it's also the Star Clan's desperate tactic.

When Yu Duan was cultivating the "Stellar Evolution" technique, he had a precious material: starlight life threads condensed by a king-level starlight race.

"Shh!"

The instant the Star Clan expert materialized, a transparent thread shot out from between his eyebrows.

Then the thread suddenly stretched and extended, shooting straight to the end.

This thread is extremely thin, only the length of a Planck, which is the smallest diameter of a spatial particle, and therefore its sharpness is unstoppable.

For the Star Clan, this is a desperate measure.

In the virtual universe, however, it was clearly set up using conventional methods.

"Well done!"

In an instant, Yu Duan's figure disappeared from the spot.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the first battle began.

Because Yu Duan had already created a top-tier secret technique, his first opponent in this battle space was someone with a top-tier secret technique.

For Yu Duan, who had just created a top-tier secret technique, the first battle was a bitter one.

After barely defeating the first opponent, he was able to easily suppress the second opponent.

According to the setting of the Dark Lord teacher.

Being able to defeat the top 100 opponents means that Yu Duan's secret technique level is at its peak.

If one can defeat 1000 opponents, it means that Yu Duan's secret technique can be considered the ultimate skill.
