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

Chapter 186 The Dragon Whale King's Desire
"Kandri, you won this time. I hope you'll have the same good luck next time."

Outside the ancient bronze gate of the Cosmic Chaos Monument.

Kandri looked at the emails, his face still bearing a kind and serene smile.

Before leaving Chaos City, Lu Qingshan made his final attempt to cross the Tongtian Bridge, and his attention was not limited to that group of Grandmasters.

After receiving the email from Baffin.

Kandri made a bet with several venerable ones with whom he had a good relationship.

Let's bet on whether Lu Qingshan can pass through the 17th level of the Cosmic Bridge this time.

obviously.

He won and also received a considerable amount of extra income.

"Haha... Lu Qingshan is truly my lucky star. I don't even need to go out and explore; I've already obtained dozens of treasure points."

Kander had a smile on his face.

"If that old fellow Qianwu knew this news, he would be very happy. It seems that his luck has recently turned around. He actually took on such an excellent disciple. Hehe... Never mind, I don't need to congratulate him. His friends have probably already told him the good news."

Kandri did not forget his job and slowly got up.

Looking at the several Chaos Monuments not far away.

His mouth twitched.

The sound, like a demonic chant, entered the bronze gates without missing a beat.

Soon, a dozen or so young-looking people covered their ears and ran out.

Even after arriving at the door, he still looked shaken.

"Lord Candry."

Despite their inward groans, the group still bowed respectfully. Kandri maintained his usual smiling, benevolent expression, as if the noise hadn't been his doing.

"Little ones, your only free opportunity to comprehend the Chaos Stele has been used up. If you want to continue comprehending the Chaos Stele next time, you will need to break through the Heavenly Bridge to obtain a spot."

"Yes, Lord Kandri."

"Go... cultivate diligently, and perhaps in the distant future, one of you will emerge as a genius like Lu Qingshan."

A group of teenagers left with reluctance on their faces, muttering to themselves as they went.

"Who is Lu Qingshan, whom Lord Kandri is referring to?"

"He must be a powerful immortal god, even Lord Kandri admires him."

"I don't know, but I can ask my teacher after I become his apprentice."

"You wish! To become an apprentice, you need to cross at least three levels of the Heavenly Bridge. We haven't even passed the first level."

"The Bridge to Heaven is too difficult. I wonder if anyone in our year has had the chance to cross it?"

“Apart from Wuman, no one else has a chance at all.”

"Yes, Wu Man is too strong. He's a precipitous number one, and I heard he's even stronger than the previous number one!"

……

Chaos City, Dragon Whale Pavilion.

As an invincible king, the Dragon Whale King naturally had his own exclusive building in Chaos City. His building was more spacious and had nine floors.

Awakening from cultivation.

The Dragon Whale King sighed.

"The fusion of laws is too difficult; no wonder many cosmic venerables do not take this path."

Countless epochs have failed to comprehend the fundamental laws of space, so the Dragon Whale King must be anxious and want to find another way to break through to the level of a Universe Venerable. Millions of epochs ago, with the support of his teacher, the Lord of the Qianwu Kingdom, he purchased the secret technique of the Water-Space Fusion Law, "Water and Marsh Myriad Phenomena".

This is a secret technique of water-space fusion created by a powerful being comparable to the Lord of the Universe.

There are seven levels in total. Cultivating to the third level makes one invincible below the level of a Universe Venerable, and cultivating to the sixth level makes one invincible below the level of a Universe Lord.
However, the founder of this secret method has now obtained the position of a divine general of the Ancestral God Sect and has not created the content of the seventh level.

The Dragon Whale King has been comprehending the "Myriad Phenomena of Water" for countless years, but he has only cultivated to the third level. He is still far from the peak of the third level, and his strength in using the Fusion Law is not even as good as when he uses the Space Law alone.

If nothing unexpected happens, his idea of ​​breaking through to the Universe Venerable realm through the Path of the Beast God will most likely fail.

"If only I had a Beast God Inheritance Token from the Ancestral God Sect."

The Ancestral God Cult is no secret among the upper echelons of humanity. Countless years ago, the Dragon Whale King also had the opportunity to inherit the legacy of a divine general from the Ancestral God Cult, and his body experienced a powerful surge.

With the inheritance of the divine general, the almost fully comprehended spatial origin law, and two great treasures, he is an extremely powerful existence even among the many invincible kings, on par with the True King.

However, now that he has lost his precious treasure, his strength is no longer comparable to that of the True King.

Think of this.

Dragon Whale King harbored some resentment towards his teacher.

Isn't it good to be alive? Why die so many times?

Not only did they squander all their savings, but they also incurred a huge debt to their community.

If the teacher hadn't perished, one could spend a fortune to bribe officials, and given the teacher's relationship with a great human being, there might actually be a chance to apply for a legacy token for oneself.

such a pity.

There was never much hope to begin with.

This time, he was too eager for quick success and died in the secret realm of the universe, losing even two important treasures he possessed, which made his chances of success even more hopeless.

…………

"Another thousand years have passed. I wonder how my junior brother is doing now?"

The Dragon Whale King thought of Lu Qingshan.

He still remembered the earnest words his teacher, the King of Qianwu, had spoken the day before he left.

“Your junior brother’s talent is the best I’ve ever seen. When you go to Chaos City, you must take good care of him. In the future, the debts between us, master and disciple, may have to be repaid with your junior brother’s help.”

The Dragon Whale King didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that the teacher just didn't want to spend gold coins, so he was just making up an excuse to fob him off.

However, Lu Qingshan's performance in the initial universe over the years has made the Dragon Whale King take it seriously.

He had originally thought that it would be quite an achievement if his junior brother could catch up with him during the Primal Secret Realm Qualifying Tournament 20,000 years later. Who would have thought that in just over a thousand years, his junior brother would have crossed the sixteenth level of the Heavenly Bridge and reached the average level of the Primal Secret Realm Master.

The speed was so fast that it startled both him and his teacher.

And that indomitable will to be granted immortality.

And ordinary secret techniques created by world lords.

A glimmer of hope rekindled in the Dragon Whale King's heart, so over the years, whenever he wasn't in seclusion cultivating, he would keep an eye on his junior brother's news.

"Hmm? An email from Baffin."

Dragon Whale King checked the emails; there were two in total, and he quickly read through them.

He then looked shocked.

"Junior Brother Qingshan...he crossed the 17th level of the Cosmic Sky Bridge?!"

Dragon Whale King stood up.

I was very excited.

He immediately shared the news with his teacher, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom.

After sending the email, the Dragon Whale King paced back and forth in the training room.

"A thousand years ago, I inquired about the matter concerning my junior brother's disciple. I wonder what the outcome was?"

If it weren't for the news that Lu Qingshan had crossed the 17th level of the Cosmic Sky Bridge today, the Dragon Whale King might not have remembered this incident.

After all, given his connections and influence, he had already personally intervened, so the matter must have been resolved.

However, he wasn't entirely sure how well the solution had been resolved or whether it would satisfy his junior brother.

"Black Peak King!"

"Greetings, Dragon Whale King!"

On the Dragon Whale King's chat screen, a burly man clad in black armor appeared. The two greeted each other.

"Black Peak King, what's the result of the investigation I asked you to do three thousand years ago regarding that little fellow named Paris?"

The Dragon Whale King asked.

Hearing this, Black Peak King on the other side was clearly surprised.

He hurriedly said, "King Dragon Whale, the matter from three thousand years ago has been investigated. According to multiple verifications by the military merit system, that Blade Clan immortal god named Mad Blade did indeed deliberately lured danger to his little fellow of the same clan on several occasions. Moreover, he rashly went to the main island of the Thunder Islands without being reviewed by the military merit system, which suggests that his motives were impure... Although that little Blade Clan member had closed the military merit system, it was understandable... I have erased his desertion information, and his military merits are sufficient for normal retirement. His status has been changed to retired status."

"Black Peak King, that's not what I want to hear. I want to know what will happen to that Blade Clan immortal?"

The Dragon Whale King snorted, somewhat displeased.

“King Dragon Whale, although the Blade Clan immortal god is a suspect, he did not actually kill that realm lord. Moreover, although the targeting in the previous video was suspected of being intentional, it was always done during battles with other immortal gods, so it cannot be used as evidence. Therefore, after modifying that realm lord's status, I gave that immortal god called Mad Blade a stern warning, and he is still fighting on Thunder Isles.”

Black Peak King spoke somewhat nervously.

"Heh... Back then, when Black Peak King was eliminating alien rebellions, he'd rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free. Now he's so disciplined, he's even starting to rely on evidence?"

The Dragon Whale King made a sarcastic remark.

Black Peak King was on the verge of tears. He never expected that Dragon Whale King would take that matter so seriously. It seemed that his handling of the matter had not satisfied Dragon Whale King.

“King Dragon Whale, I understand… I will reopen the investigation. If the Blade Clan’s immortal god, Mad Blade, really did harm his own warriors, I will punish him severely.”

"Okay, let me know the results!"

Having received this answer, the Dragon Whale King finally hung up the call...

Since Black Peak King has said this, whether there is evidence or not is no longer important. I believe we will receive a satisfactory answer soon.

……

Just as Lu Qingshan crossed the 17th level of the Heavenly Bridge, the world lord-level geniuses in the core secret realm also received the news.

Just like August before him, Lu Qingshan received the message after successfully clearing the 16th and 17th floors.

The original secret realm of the Virtual Universe Company.

Lingyu was astonished when she saw the message in her email.

"The teacher is truly amazing. He actually crossed the 17th floor of the Sky Bridge in one go. Compared to the teacher, I am far behind."

Lingyu looked at the messages in her email, feeling both delighted and troubled.

Previously, whether at the cosmic or domain lord level, she was far ahead. But now that she's reached the realm lord level, she's completely fallen to the bottom. In the next qualifying battle, there's a high probability she'll be eliminated and sent to the Primordial Secret Realm.

The same treatment was given to the realm lord named Jin Jian, who also seemed to be a disciple of the teacher.

"How exactly did the teacher cultivate? Why is his comprehension of the laws so fast?"

Lingyu racked her brains but couldn't figure out the problem.

Another manor not far away.

The young man in white carrying the golden sword also received the message.

His face darkened.

His cheap teacher, Lu Qingshan, actually crossed the 17th level of the Heavenly Bridge, which is an absolute leading position even among the masters of the Primordial Secret Realm.

This is not the key point.

The key point is that once Lu Qingshan finishes his comprehension of the initial universe, he will come to the Primordial Secret Realm, so what about himself...?

The thought of having to call Lu Qingshan "teacher" made Jin Jian feel extremely uncomfortable...

If there were no other people around, it wouldn't be a problem, but if there were other people around, he felt he might as well commit suicide.

"No, no, before Lu Qingshan arrives, I must quickly apply for permission to go on an expedition, to the extraterrestrial battlefield! To the cosmic secret realm! Yes, that's it!"

……

In the virtual universe, on Thunder Mountain, there is a huge manor on the mountainside.

Lu Qingshan left the Tongtian Bridge dimension and rushed here.

As the three thousand years of comprehension of the initial universe were drawing to a close, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom finally remembered that he had this disciple.
