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

Chapter 147 Reunion with Luo
The Dragon Whale King did not linger in the Qianwu Secret Realm for long. After only three days, he informed Lu Qingshan that they could set off.

Lu Qingshan originally thought that following his second senior brother, who had been granted the title of Immortal King, would involve using the Divine Kingdom teleportation... but unexpectedly... the Dragon Whale King released an E9-level spaceship.

The spaceship quickly broke through the air and disappeared over the Qianwu Continent.

After entering the dark universe, the Dragon Whale King shut down the spaceship's external simulation and said, "Don't underestimate this spaceship of mine just because it's not high-level. It's been specially modified, and its speed is now comparable to a typical F-class spaceship..."

Lu Qingshan looked at the 20 times the speed of light displayed on the spaceship system, which was indeed no worse than a regular F spaceship. However, his 'Void Ark' could accelerate to 50 times the speed of light.

Of course, Lu Qingshan did not overstep his bounds, since the Dragon Whale King was there to pick him up, and he had better follow the other party's arrangements.

After chatting for a while, Lu Qingshan found a rest room and began to cultivate "Thousand Threads Soul Refining".

Of all these years, this is the only secret technique he has persisted in practicing the longest...

Lu Qingshan understood the importance of willpower better than anyone else… He wasn't born on Earth and didn't have the natural talent for it, so he could only hone his skills through sheer willpower. The Thousand Threads Soul Refining technique, combined with the annual reminders from his cheat system, was practically exploiting a magical bug; for Lu Qingshan, there was no better secret method.

Three months have passed.

The spaceship docked on a giant continent.

Seeing Lu Qingshan's confusion, the Dragon Whale King smiled and said, "Don't worry, Second Senior Brother won't kidnap a genius like you. This is the closest branch of the Virtual Universe Company to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom..."

He pointed to the staff coming and going in front of him and continued.

"The headquarters and each branch of the Virtual Universe Company have dedicated teleportation channels to the Divine Kingdom. As a King-level Immortal, Senior Brother is entitled to one thousand free teleportations per era."

Lu Qingshan was somewhat surprised by what the Dragon Whale King said.

My plump-looking senior brother seems to be quite shrewd.

To achieve immortality as a king, is the cost of teleporting to a divine kingdom really that small? If you don't want to reveal the coordinates of your divine kingdom, you can use plant life or servants instead.

Lu Qingshan didn't believe that his second senior brother hadn't left his divine coordinates near the virtual universe company's headquarters on the mainland.

However, since we've already arrived here, it doesn't matter whose divine kingdom we travel through.

"Greetings, Lord Dragon Whale King!"

The strongest individual in this branch of the Virtual Universe Company was merely a Marquis-level Immortal, and his attitude was extremely respectful.
"I want to use the teleportation channel to go to the headquarters mainland."

The Dragon Whale King didn't give the other party a friendly look.

"Yes, sir, I will make the arrangements right away."

Soon... Lu Qingshan and the Dragon Whale King disappeared from this continent together via the Divine Kingdom Passage.

They just left.

The staff member in charge of the delivery couldn't help but wipe away a cold sweat.

"It's actually the Dragon Whale King! I heard that the Dragon Whale King suffered a major setback in the cosmic secret realm last time, no wonder his face looked so ugly just now."

"It's good that you look pale. I heard that the Dragon Whale King had a rival before. This time, the Dragon Whale King went straight to the rival's hometown and killed all the immortals in their family."

"You've got some nerve, daring to talk about Lord Dragon Whale King."

Suddenly, the immortal marquis appeared, his tone stern... Everyone shut their mouths, daring not to speak further.

……

……

Lu Qingshan and the Dragon Whale King, who were currently being teleported, were unaware of the discussions among these people. After transiting through the Divine Kingdom, they appeared on a boundless continent.

How big is the mainland?
Lu Qingshan found it hard to describe, but compared to this continent, the stars and planets in the sky were like ants.

“Qingshan…” Dragon Whale King said in a kind tone, “This is the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company. Is this your first time here?”

"Yes!" Lu Qingshan nodded. "It is indeed very magnificent."

"Haha, of course. Virtual Universe Company is one of the top two powers among the five major forces. How could its headquarters be so petty? This continent is 45 light-years in diameter."

"45 light-years, that's really big."

Lu Qingshan was mentally prepared, but he was still shocked when he actually saw it.

Such a vast continent can be considered a cosmic wonder. While explaining some basic facts about the Virtual Universe Company headquarters to Lu Qingshan, the Dragon Whale King led him towards the Initial Universe Passage.

In the plaza outside the initial universe passage, a group of powerful realm lords had been waiting for a long time.

Luo, with a full head of white hair and an aged appearance, was among them. He wore a white robe, and his aged appearance was very conspicuous in the crowd.

"My lord, when can we go to the initial universe?"

Someone asked in a low voice.

"What's the rush? We'll send you in once everyone's here!"

The immortal leading the team said somewhat impatiently.

Seeing this, the others dared not say anything and could only wait silently...

"Hey bro, what's your name? You look pretty old, is that some kind of special look?"

The ape-man boy who had just been scolded sat down next to Luo and asked curiously.

"No, my time is coming to an end, and I'm like this now..."

Logically speaking, a realm lord nearing the end of his life shouldn't be this old. Luo's condition is due to the excessive acceleration of time in the secret realm, leaving him with some aftereffects, which he is too lazy to eliminate.

Now, his most important task is to comprehend the laws; he has no time to be distracted by anything else.

Even while waiting at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company, he was still comprehending the laws of light, but the boy next to him had just interrupted his cultivation.

"Then you've come to the right place. I've heard that world lords who come to the Primordial Universe to comprehend have a very high probability of breaking through to immortality."

"Thank you."

Luo didn't want to say anything more to him.

But this guy was very talkative, and continued, "My name is Jemin, what's yours?"

"Lo."

"A one-character name? One-character names are very rare."

Luo: ...

Just as the two were talking, Lu Qingshan and the Dragon Whale King walked over. The Immortal, who usually had a bad temper, immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing the Dragon Whale King: "Greetings, Lord Dragon Whale King."

"By opening the cosmic passage, I and this Primordial Mystic Realm master will return to the initial universe."

"The Dragon Whale King said calmly."

"Yes, sir. The passage will be opened immediately."

The immortal deity dared not ask further, but only glanced at Lu Qingshan, guessing in his heart which realm lord this was. It was normal for many realm lords to disguise their identities when they went out.

The immortal deity first bowed respectfully to the Dragon Whale King and Lu Qingshan, then turned around and changed his expression: "Your luck has come, quickly gather together... and immediately follow Lord Dragon Whale King into the Initial Universe."

"Hua Hua Hua..."

Almost everyone stood up instantly, all of them excited, even Luo's eyes flashed with excitement.

The primordial universe, the longing of the past has finally become a reality.

However, everyone remained very restrained.

Because with them was a king-level immortal deity... Even Jemin dared not say anything more, for fear of offending this great being.

And there's that Primordial Mystic Realm Master.

Everyone present knew what that meant.

Luo's gaze lingered on Lu Qingshan's back, a figure that, though slender, seemed unapproachable.

A barely perceptible glint of fighting spirit flashed in Luo's eyes.

"Right now, I'm no match for this genius realm master, but if I break through to immortality, then it's hard to say..."
