Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 128 Choice, Reaching the Destination
The virtual universe, Qianwu Continent, Star River Oasis Community.

A girl with long purple hair sat opposite Lu Qingshan, recounting her experiences over the past thirty years.

“Teacher, in the thirty years of Chaos City, I comprehended my first essence in the seventh year and broke through to the third level of the Heavenly Bridge. After comprehending the seventh essence, I passed through the fourth level... but now the fifth level is still nowhere in sight…”

"Hehe... Analyzing the fundamental laws of time is a very difficult path in itself, and you progressed more slowly than others in the early stages. Now that you have passed the fourth level, you should still be in a leading position among the geniuses of this generation."

Lu Qingshan poured himself a glass of 'Starry River Dream'.

“Yes, teacher.” A hint of pride flashed in Ling Yu’s eyes: “Among the geniuses of my generation, besides myself, the highest-ranking Illusion God, Mobert, and the God of Fire are still on the third level…”

"Haha... Lingyu is telling them that first place is always first place... Don't worry, I'll send you several solutions to the eighth and ninth essential issues via email in a bit... Compare them with the 'Green Mountain' secret method and see if there's a suitable approach for you..."

Everyone is different, and the path each person takes is unique. The success stories of those who came before can only be considered as experiences, not as the standard answers.

However, Lingyu herself used "Green Mountain" as a blueprint to analyze the first essence, and then followed the secret method of "Green Mountain", so she was able to gain some inspiration and benefits from it.

"Several approaches..."

Lingyu clicked her tongue in amazement.

My teacher, Mr. Lu, is still as mysterious and unpredictable as ever.

She was a genius from the Primal Secret Realm, and her guard captain and instructor were both immortal gods, but Ling Yu felt that Teacher Lu in front of her was more mysterious and knowledgeable...

“You are my pride… Of course I will do everything I can to help you… You and Lingxi should have a good talk. Although you have only been in Chaos City for thirty years, Lingxi has been waiting outside for a hundred years…”

Lu Qingshan stood up with his wine glass in hand, giving his seat to the two sisters, Lingyu and Lingxi, before going to find Yang for a drink.

After Lu Qingshan left, Lingyu pulled the tearful Lingxi to her side.

"You're over a hundred years old, how come you're still like this... What level are you at now?"

"Ninth level of the universe!"

Lingxi answered in a low voice.

"Ninth level of the Universe... Not bad... It seems you haven't relaxed your cultivation in the past hundred years. I'm only at the ninth level of the Universe now."

Lingyu's words carried a hint of admiration.

Lingxi lowered her head quietly, feeling a little guilty... Her ninth-level universe cultivation was entirely achieved by soaking in nutrient solution... Not to mention laws, she hadn't even reached the peak of the ninth level of her domain.

"Sister, I'll treat you to pastries from Su Yue Fang."

Lingxi didn't want to talk about this issue. With a wave of her hand, she took out a large pile of pastries from her spatial ring, with all kinds of flavors... filling the entire table.

"Lingxi...you didn't use all the cultivation resources allocated to you from the secret realm to buy pastries, did you?"

Lingyu looked at the pastries in surprise. She knew that the pastries from Suyuefang were not cheap, even in the virtual universe.

“Sister.” Lingxi said excitedly, “My teacher was very good to me. When you left, he bought Suyuefang and gave it to me. Now I am the big boss of Suyuefang, and I can eat pastries for free.”

"Teacher Lu... he's always been so generous..."

Lingyu picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth to savor it. Seeing her sister so happy, she felt completely at ease and prepared to face the challenges ahead.

Each of those cosmic-level adventure missions is extremely dangerous and carries the risk of death. Lingyu cannot guarantee that she can survive those missions.

Perhaps because cultivation in Chaos City was too tedious, Ling Yu didn't rush to leave and stayed at Lu Qingshan's place for dinner.

Before leaving, she asked for advice again.

"Teacher Lu, there's something I'd like you to help me with."

"what's up?"

Lu Qingshan asked.

"It's like this... Over the years, my performance in Chaos City has been quite good. Some grandmasters in Chaos City want to take me as their disciple, but I'm undecided about two of them... One is King Lingyun... and the other is King Qiguang..." Lingyu then went on to provide detailed information about the two kings...

Both of them are grandmasters of the Myriad Universe School, and their strengths are not much different... but their cultivation paths are different.

Based on this information, Lu Qingshan considered for a moment before saying, "According to you, the winners of this genius battle will all become disciples of Venerable Wanhuan, and Lingyun King is Venerable Wanhuan's disciple... Choosing her as your teacher will definitely be better for your future development. After all, even among our own people, there are differences in closeness and distance... If you become Lingyun King's disciple, you will be Venerable Wanhuan's grand-disciple..."

“Teacher, if you put it that way, then I’ll choose Lingyun King…” Lingyu made her decision quickly.

"Hehe, take my opinion as a reference only, don't take it too seriously... I have never been to Chaos City, and I know even less about those Grandmasters who have been conferred titles. This is just based on my own experience."

Lu Qingshan shook his head.

"Lingyu trusts her teacher's judgment."

Lingyu's tone was very firm.

After a satisfying meal, Lingyu and Lingxi had a heart-to-heart talk. Before leaving, she suddenly asked curiously, "Teacher Lu, how far have you gotten in your analysis of the fundamental laws of time?"

"Me?" Lu Qingshan smiled faintly and said, "Just an ordinary immortal."

"Ordinary immortality..."

Lingyu nodded.

She understood in her heart: "Even if the teacher wasn't being modest, he still had a very deep understanding of the essence of the last 72 difficulties... The teacher is truly extraordinary, and will surely become a powerful immortal deity in the future!"

……

The Primal Secret Realm, the Ninth Dimension, the Continent of Wuchen.

Lingyu walked out of the cultivation room in the manor.

"Ivy".

She called out softly to her captain of the guard, a powerful immortal deity.

"What are your orders, Your Highness Lingyu?"

Ivy has long, snow-white hair and exudes a cold, aloof aura, but she is very polite to Lingyu.

"Ivy, please tell Lord Lingyun that I intend to become her disciple."

Ivy was somewhat surprised that Lingyu made her decision so quickly, but then she smiled slightly, as if melting away ice and snow, and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness. From now on, Your Highness will be Ivy's junior sister."

"what."

Lingyu looked at Ivy in surprise.

Ivy then said, "Actually, my teacher has always valued you highly... It was also my teacher's arrangement for me to become His Highness's guard... However, His Highness had not made a decision before, so I did not mention this matter, lest it affect His Highness's judgment."

"This...this really is a double celebration..."

Lingyu spoke in surprise.

……

at the same time.

The distant Golden Wave Universe Kingdom... the Kabel Starfield... an asteroid belt...

After several years of space travel, Lu Qingshan's Ghost King clone finally arrived at the cosmic coordinates that his brother-in-law Kaili had told him!

The Ghost King's clone gazed at the distant starry sky ahead.

"This place is so remote that there isn't a single decent galaxy within hundreds of millions of light-years... It's practically a naturally hidden cosmic sky... How did that kid Kerry find this place back then?"
