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

Chapter 25 King Qinghuan and the King of Beiming
Yu Duan had naturally heard of the name of the King of Illusions.

Among the immortal deities in the Northern Divine Land, Yu Duan truly knew only a few who had taught him lessons.

However, I've heard that there are many powerful figures among them, the most famous of whom is naturally the person in charge of the Northern Sun Holy Land, the strongest under the King, the number one immortal in the Northern Sun Great Star Region, the King of Illusion.

However, Yu Duan really didn't expect that this super immortal was actually a middle-aged man with a refined and elegant demeanor. He was handsome and his figure was not particularly imposing, but he gave people a sense of calm and composure.

King Qinghuan smiled and said, "Little fellow, are you curious as to why I've come to see you?"

Yu Duan had some guesses in his mind, but he bowed again and said, "Please enlighten me, sir."

"Hahaha……"

King Qinghuan laughed and said, "Little fellow, would you like to become my disciple?"

They really came to take me as their disciple!

Without the slightest hesitation, Yu Duan knelt down with a thud: "Teacher, please accept my respects!"

"Very well, from today onwards, you will be my youngest disciple, and the only one who has not yet achieved immortality."

King Qinghuan slightly raised his hand, and an invisible, gentle force helped Yu Duan up.

As an extremely ancient and immortal deity, King Qinghuan has not taken on any disciples for a long time. Any of his disciples who are still alive are already immortal deities.

"It is my honor to be able to become your disciple," Yu Duan quickly replied.

King Qinghuan was clearly in a good mood and patted Yu Duan on the shoulder: "You child, you are just too modest."

To be honest, Yu Duan has a lot of talent.

Although his mastery of the laws is not high, in terms of the speed of progress alone, he is no weaker than King Qinghuan in his youth.

However, for a young fellow who has just entered the realm of laws, no matter how good his talent is, it is difficult for him to be valued by ancient beings.

The reason is simple: there is too much uncertainty.

Therefore, King Qinghuan has been observing Yu Duan for the past two years. With his low-grade bloodline and virtually non-existent talent in law, he was able to cross the threshold of the origin law in just a few years. His comprehension is astonishing.

What truly moved King Qinghuan about Yu Duan was not just his talent, but also his humility in his daily life and his never arrogant or complacent nature.

Character, willpower, and comprehension are the key factors that ancient beings like King Qinghuan value when accepting disciples. As for talent in the laws of nature, it is actually the easiest to improve with money and resources.

Of course, there is another reason, which is that Yu Duan's cultivation and comprehension are based on the laws of light.

The laws that King Qinghuan himself cultivates are the two major laws of light and time.

"Come on, I'll take you to pay your respects to the King. Remember to be sweet-talking and call him 'Uncle-Master'," King Qinghuan said with a smile to Yu Duan.

"Master, senior master?"

Yu Duan was dumbfounded. The King of Qinghuan and the King of Beiming were actually fellow disciples?!

However, Yu Duan soon realized that he had guessed wrong.

Before long, in the middle of the North Sea, in a magnificent ice-blue palace.

The entire hall was carved from some strange, ice-blue, glass-like substance, with silver-blue runes surging across its surface.

The secret runes emitted a faint glow, illuminating the entire palace in a radiant light.

At the deepest part of the palace, there is a throne about ten kilometers wide, surrounded by a layer of hazy ice mist.

Through the hazy white mist, one could vaguely see a majestic figure in a snow-white robe. His face was obscured, but a pair of eyes that shone like miniature stars could be seen.

"Brother, this is Yu Duan, my newly accepted disciple!"

After King Qinghuan led Yu Duan into the palace, he did not bow at all, but simply patted Yu Duan on the shoulder and introduced him to the King of Beiming with a smile.

The way he addressed himself as "his own teacher" sent a storm of emotions through Yu Duan's heart.

However, Yu Duan showed no reaction on his face, and knelt on the ground respectfully, saying loudly, "Junior nephew Yu Duan pays respects to senior uncle!" "Tsk, every time you take on a disciple, you bring them here to ask me for a gift. You're really not polite."

A neutral voice rang out from the misty air, its tone filled with disdain.

As they spoke, the icy mist dissipated naturally, revealing a peerless figure dressed in a snow-white robe, with an almost otherworldly handsome appearance, making it difficult to distinguish between male and female.

As the King of Beiming revealed his true form, it became clear that he and King Qinghuan were of the same race.

It's unclear whether the ruler of Beiming Kingdom and King Qinghuan are biological brothers, or if they have a relationship similar to the three brothers on Earth.

King Qinghuan, no longer displaying his refined demeanor, laughed heartily and said, "Brother, what are you saying? I have no intention of asking for a gift. Anyway, the little fellow has already called you 'Uncle-Master,' so you can decide what to do, brother."

"Have you no shame, especially in front of a junior?"

The King of Beiming glared at King Qinghuan with disdain, then looked at Yu Duan with a fairly friendly smile on his face.

“Good child, you have just stepped into the threshold of the laws. As your elder, I will give you a treasure to help you quickly comprehend the laws.”

The King of Beiming spoke in a tone as if coaxing a child, and as he spoke, he flipped his right hand, and a dazzling ball of light appeared directly in his palm.

Within that dazzling light was a strange sphere.

To be precise, this is an eye.

The entire piece resembles mutton fat jade, covered with intricate white and silver patterns, with a maximum diameter of about two meters, radiating out circles of light that resemble the texture of mercury.

The moment the wondrous eye was taken out, an endless, rich aura of the two fundamental laws of light and time spread out.

"This is the eye of a special life form at the World Lord level that I killed in my early years. It will be of great help to your understanding of the fundamental laws of light and time."

Seeing the treasure that the King of Beiming had taken out, King Qinghuan's face showed a satisfied expression, and he quickly patted Yu Duan on the shoulder: "Hurry up and thank him."

"Thank you so much, Master Uncle, for bestowing this treasure!"

Yu Duan quickly bowed and loudly expressed his gratitude, his voice filled with boundless admiration for his senior master!

The ruler of Beiming Kingdom nodded slightly: "Strive to cultivate diligently and do not disappoint your teacher."

After he finished speaking, the dissipated ice mist gathered again, once more enveloping the figure of this cosmic venerable one.

Seeing this, King Qinghuan laughed and said, "Haha, I won't bother you any longer, brother."

……

After leaving the central temple, King Qinghuan patted Yu Duan on the head: "The treasure your senior uncle gave you is worth enough to drive most immortal gods crazy, so don't let anyone else know about it. Also, pack your things and move to my palace."

"is teacher."

King Qinghuan nodded: "Once you're ready, I'll take you to the virtual universe to meet your senior brothers and sisters."

Yu Duan nodded repeatedly.

In reality, there wasn't much to pack, but King Qinghuan still sent two Realm Lord-level experts to follow Yu Duan and see if there was anything he could help with.

The residence of King Qinghuan is located on a large, independent island. The entire island consists of only one continuous cluster of palaces.

"Does Your Highness intend to choose an empty palace as your residence, or do you plan to build a new palace independently?"

Beside Yu Duan, a powerful Realm Lord with steel wings on his back bowed slightly and asked respectfully.

Normally speaking, even a core student at the Stellar level wouldn't be qualified to receive a bow from a World Lord level expert.

However, Yu Duan, as a disciple of King Qinghuan, is an exception.

As a super being among the immortal kings, and also a master of illusion, the King of Illusions holds a very extraordinary position.
