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

Chapter 184: The End of Three Thousand Years of Comprehension

After returning to Chaos City.

Lu Qingshan immediately commissioned the company to purchase the precious resources for cultivating the Thousand-vine Star-eating Grass.

Then he cleared all his points and exchanged them for cultivation resources for the third level of the 'Body of Time' from the company's treasury.

The next step is to address the issue of the Light of Erosion accumulating too slowly using the Time Compass.

Lu Qingshan was still researching and searching for information, but had not yet started trying it out.

Preparing in advance is simply being prepared for a rainy day.

……

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the three thousand years of initial universe comprehension are coming to an end.

The virtual universe sent a message via email.

He was reminded that he had one year left before the end of his comprehension, after which he would leave the initial universe and go to live in the primordial secret realm.

There are also trials at the Realm Lord level, which require advance preparation...

Lu Qingshan got up and went to the city lord's mansion.

Outside the bronze gate, Kandri smiled and said, "Lu Qingshan, you have one more chance to comprehend this. Do you wish to use it...?"

"use."

With a creak, the bronze gate slowly opened, and Lu Qingshan stepped inside.

It was the familiar Cosmic Chaos Monument. Lu Qingshan's gaze skipped over the first five images and lingered on the sixth one.

The sixth image on the Cosmic Chaos Stele represents the enlightenment of the laws of immortality. If one can comprehend the sixth image, one can pass through the 18th level of the Cosmic Sky Bridge and obtain permanent residency in Chaos City.

Moreover, one can establish a sect in Chaos City and become a Grandmaster of the Universe lineage.

Lu Qingshan began to comprehend the sixth picture a thousand years ago, but he is still far from fully understanding it.

In Lu Qingshan's sight.

The sixth picture seems to transform into a vast starry sky.

Meteors, planets, stars, white dwarfs, neutron stars, cosmic black holes... countless celestial bodies converge on one image.

It transformed into countless origins of the laws of space and time.

"The laws of spacetime in this sixth picture are completely integrated, and there is no need to follow any particular path. Fortunately, I improved my understanding of the fundamental laws of space many years ago."

"Time freezes...space distorts...space..."

Lu Qingshan's consciousness was completely immersed in the vast and boundless starry sky, and his consciousness traveled rapidly through the starry sky.

Each celestial body was clearly visible to him.

There are also black holes.

The black hole was infinitely small, infinitely large... Lu Qingshan's consciousness seemed to be firmly drawn to the black hole, unable to break free...

However, a moment later, his consciousness reappeared countless light-years away.

"Space travel!"

Lu Qingshan smiled slightly.

I woke up before the Candley alarm clock went off.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, on this last occasion, he finally grasped the essence of space travel.

"It seems we've gone astray."

Lu Qingshan pondered in his heart.

Spatial distortion is one of the minor branches of spatial strangulation, while spatial traversal is one of the minor branches of teleportation. Although he has comprehended two branches of the fundamental laws of space, they do not belong to the same major category.

This situation isn't very helpful for him to fully understand a major branch of the teachings.
The same applies to the fundamental laws of time. He had long ago grasped a minor branch of time stopping, time stagnation... But in recent years, relying on his understanding of the One-Horned Ghost King's innate ability to accelerate time, he has mastered the minor branch of time acceleration...

In other words, the four smaller branches he currently controls do not belong to the same larger branch.

If this were told to others, probably no one would believe it.

The bronze gate slowly opened, and as Kandri's voice rang out, Lu Qingshan's figure had already appeared at the gate.

"Lu Qingshan, how was it? Did you get anything?"

Candri smiled gently.

"It's alright, I've gained a little insight."

Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

"How about we try crossing the Bridge to Heaven? I remember the last time you crossed the 16th level of the Bridge to Heaven was over a thousand years ago, wasn't it?" There was no one else around, so Kander didn't mind chatting with Lu Qingshan a bit more.

"I'll probably give it a try, since I'll be leaving soon."

"With your speed of comprehending the laws, returning to Chaos City shouldn't be difficult. Just cross the 18th level of the Heavenly Bridge. You don't lack even that much confidence, do you?"

"Haha, it's a bit difficult, but Aoyama will do his best."

Lu Qingshan cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

"Lord Kandri, I'm going to the Skybridge now." Kandri waved his hand: "Go ahead, I hope to see you again in Chaos City soon. I still have a lot of faith in you."

"Thank you, Lord Kandri."

Turning around and leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Qingshan's consciousness entered the Tongtian Bridge dimension.

Upon returning to this place, Lu Qingshan discovered that the once empty Tongtian Bridge dimension now had a group of people.

"Brother Qingshan, you've arrived..."

Baffin, who was chatting with a few little ones, walked over.

"Brother Baffin, it's quite lively today."

Looking at this group of curious young people, Lu Qingshan already had some guesses in his mind.

"Yes, it's very lively. There are a lot of young guys, just like ten thousand years ago. I remember that ten thousand years ago, the most outstanding Prince Lingyu was Brother Qingshan's disciple."

"Baffin joked."

“Lingyu is indeed very outstanding. She is now a member of the Primal Secret Realm and has even caught up with me, her teacher.”

Lu Qingshan felt no shame whatsoever.

During this millennium, Lingyu and Jinjian, who won the Domain Lord qualification battle, both broke through to the Realm Lord realm and directly became temporary members of the Primordial Secret Realm.

He and Lu Qingshan are indeed at the same level now.

However, in terms of understanding the laws, they are only at the twelfth level, while Lu Qingshan is already at the seventeenth level. The difference between them is immeasurable.

There are still ten thousand years until the Realm Lord Qualification Tournament. If nothing unexpected happens, the two of them will eventually be eliminated and enter the Primordial Secret Realm ten thousand years later.

After all, it would be too difficult to raise one's understanding of the laws from the thirteenth to the fifteenth level over ten thousand years.

Even if they really reach the fifteenth level, compared with the veteran realm masters of the Primordial Secret Realm, they are still far behind and will definitely be eliminated by the genius realm masters of the Primordial Secret Realm.

"Brother Qingshan, you don't usually come to the Tongtian Bridge dimension. Could it be that you've come here this time for some reason...?"

Baffin had a vague suspicion in his mind.

"Haha, let's try and see if we can get across the 17th floor of the Sky Bridge. After all, it's been a thousand years since anyone has tried it."

Lu Qingshan did not hide it.

"Brother Qingshan, you are truly amazing. You can only clear one level in a thousand years? I have seen many geniuses, but I have never seen anyone like you."

Baffin couldn't help but be surprised, considering this was the bridge to heaven after the fifteenth floor, not before the tenth.

"Brother Baffin, don't be surprised yet. It's not certain whether we can get through this."

Lu Qingshan waved his hand.

Baffin chuckled: "Whether you can pass or not doesn't matter, having the courage is already quite impressive... I believe Brother Qingshan must have some confidence to come here."

Is anyone on the Cosmic Bridge?

Lu Qingshan looked back.

Baffin shook his head: "None of the kids in this year's class chose the Cosmic Chaos Monument. You can go in directly. I hope Brother Qingshan can succeed."

"Thank you!"

Lu Qingshan bowed in thanks, then flew into the Cosmic Bridge.

Baffin watched Lu Qingshan disappear and immediately granted him viewing privileges.

"Brother Qingshan is truly astonishing. He must have had some confidence to break through the Heavenly Bridge before leaving Chaos City."

As he spoke, hundreds of emails were sent out almost instantly.

……

"Lord Guardian, who was that just now? Why did he go to the Cosmic Bridge?"

Among the group of teenagers queuing outside, a black-haired boy who was 2.5 meters tall with a tanned physique asked curiously.

He remembered that before he came to Chaos City, his elders told him to choose the Chaos Stele according to his ability and never choose the Cosmic Chaos Stele.

"Hehe, little guy, that's a Realm Lord-level member of the Primal Secret Realm, and not just any ordinary Primal Secret Realm Lord..."

Baffin's words were a bit difficult to understand, but the muscular boy was shocked.

A member of a Primal Secret Realm at the Realm Lord level?
That's an extremely powerful expert!

No wonder they chose the most difficult cosmic chaos monument.

"Lord Watchman, what is the prince's name?"

The muscular young man used honorifics. Although he was also a member of the Primal Realm, he knew very well that his status as a Primal Realm member was only temporary and at the cosmic level... He would probably be eliminated soon, and his status was far less valuable than that of the person he had just met.

“Wu Man, if you see him again next time, you can just call him Prince Qingshan…”

Baffin took good care of the young Manka, after all, he had a good friend in the Manka tribe.

"Your Highness Qingshan!" Wu Man murmured, then his expression changed, and he asked in surprise, "Could the book 'Qingshan - Fundamentals of Space' that my father recommended I redeem with points be...?"

"That's right, it's His Highness's masterpiece."

Baffin smiled broadly, feeling quite pleased with himself!
My brother is amazing! His reputation has even spread to the Manka tribe!
