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

Chapter 248 Luo's Shock, Huge Cash Back!
Purple Star Domain, White Bird Star.

This is an extremely ordinary life-bearing planet, located within the territory of a primary-level cosmic empire under the Zichen Intermediate Civilization Empire.

The strongest being on the planet is merely an eighth-order star.

Luo easily evaded the planet's rudimentary defense system and arrived at the coordinates sent by his teacher in a short time.

It was a very ordinary bar.

The lights were bright and the neon signs were flashing. A man with an old face, wearing a gray robe, was drinking white wine. There were two beautiful women beside him.

Luo was slightly startled.

I originally thought that once I reached the Marquis level, I could keep up with my teacher. But I never expected that in my eyes, my teacher would still be so ordinary, as if he were just an ordinary person.

Ordinary means extraordinary.

A teacher is at least an immortal deity; how could he possibly be an ordinary person without any cultivation?

"The teacher's abilities are truly unfathomable."

Seeing the teacher chatting and laughing with two beautiful girls, Luo hesitated, wondering whether to go up and interrupt.

However, the teacher soon said something to the two beautiful women, and the two women turned and left with some regret.

Luo then stepped forward and walked over.

"Meet the teacher."

Luo spoke in a low voice.

"Luo! It's been a long time. I didn't expect you to have already become a Marquis-level Immortal God. Please have a seat."

Lu Qingshan pointed to the chair opposite him.

Luo nodded and sat down.

He looked at the tavern, which was just an ordinary tavern. The strongest person there was only at the planetary level. The music was a type he had never heard before. He never expected that his teacher would have such leisure time.

"Teacher, I didn't mean to disturb you."

Luo knew in her heart that the teacher must have noticed her arrival just now, which was why he made the two outstanding-looking women leave. Otherwise, they might have spent a wonderful evening together.

"It's nothing... They just see me as an old man with some money... It's not their intention, it doesn't mean anything."

Lu Qingshan shook his head.

Raise your glass.

I had a drink with Luo.

The best wine in the tavern was bland and tasteless to the two of them, but Luo still drank it very happily because it was his teacher who poured it for him.

"Teacher, try this."

Luo took out the fine wine he had prepared.

"Oh? Ice Rain Wine, that's quite a good stuff."

The Ghost King's clone's eyes lit up slightly. He took the bottle, tilted his head back, and took a big gulp. The energy contained in this Ice Rain Wine was too great; even ordinary wine glasses in the tavern probably couldn't withstand it.

If a single drop of wine were to fall to the ground, the entire tavern would probably be frozen solid.

It's icy cold and has a sweet taste.

The primordial universe was vast, with hundreds of millions of fine wines. Lu Qingshan hadn't tried them all, but this Ice Rain Wine was his first time drinking it, and he found it to have a unique flavor.

Clearly, his disciple had put a lot of thought and effort into preparing this gift.

"Teacher, there are two more bottles here. Please keep them and drink them slowly."

Luo took out a world ring and placed it aside.

Lu Qingshan smiled slightly and put it away.

"All the money you've made at Virtual Universe Company over the years has been invested in these few bottles of wine?"

"Teacher saved Luo's life, and the gift you bestowed upon me is a thousand times more valuable than this Ice Rain Wine. This is just a small token of my filial piety."

Luo quickly answered.

"Haha, it's alright. I'm not that kind of old-fashioned man. I appreciate your filial piety. However, you should keep the money you earn for yourself... Wait until you become an immortal king... then you can come back to be filial to your teacher."

"Becoming an immortal king..." Luo was astonished, then said, "It was already a stroke of luck for me to become an immortal god with the title of Marquis, and I even received help from a noble person. I really dare not dream of becoming a king."

"What's there to be afraid of?" Lu Qingshan took a big gulp of fine wine and said with a smile, "As my disciple, you should dare to think and act. It's just being crowned a king, not a cosmic venerable. What's there to be afraid of? It's just comprehending a few minor branches. With my help, you still have a great chance of becoming a king. If you don't even have this much confidence, why did I take you as my disciple in the first place?"

Luo was filled with fear: "Teacher, your disciple has confidence."

"That's more like it. Let's drink first, and we can talk about other things later."

The two continued drinking.

They didn't leave until the tavern closed.

Upon entering a luxurious manor on White Bird Star, Lu Qingshan took out the Source Blood Crystal Sand from his World Ring.

"Teacher... what is this?"

Luo looked at the beautiful crystal with a hint of surprise.

He knew in his heart that the treasure his teacher had taken out so carefully must be extraordinary, something he had never seen before.

Furthermore, it cannot be found even through virtual universe searches.

"This thing is called Source Blood Crystal Sand, and it is extremely precious... Even some King-level Immortals are eager to get their hands on it."

The Ghost King's clone spoke calmly.

"this!"

Luo stared at the small, beautiful blood-red crystal with a look of shock in his eyes. Even a King-level Immortal would covet something, yet his teacher had casually taken it out. Was his teacher's strength even greater than that of a King-level Immortal?
Luo couldn't see through his teacher's disguise, so he couldn't understand the teacher's strength and didn't dare to ask.

"This is something I prepared for you."

Lu Qingshan said with a smile, "Me!"

Although Luo had some guesses in her mind, she still couldn't believe it when she heard her teacher say that.

The treasure that even immortal kings crave is about to be given to him by his teacher.

"Teacher, this treasure is too precious. Luo is only a newly appointed marquis. I'm afraid possessing such a treasure would be a crime. Please, teacher, take it back..."

Lu Qingshan chuckled: "You say that because you don't know the function of this treasure. The Origin Blood Crystal Sand comes from an extremely precious treasure of the Nine Domains Alliance. It can increase a person's genetic multiplier by about three to five times... Do you know what this means? Once you fuse with this thing and reach its limit, your strength can increase fivefold, and your understanding of the laws and your cosmic compatibility will also improve significantly..."

"Your Immortal Divine Body has just been re-formed, possessing approximately a thousand times the power of an ordinary World Lord. If you can perfectly fuse with this Source Blood Crystal Sand, you will gain a five-thousand-fold increase in World Lord power. Aside from your understanding of the laws, your basic strength is already exceptionally outstanding even among those at the advanced Marquis level. Once you reach the advanced Marquis level, your basic strength will have already entered the King level. Now... do you still think becoming a King is extremely difficult?"

……

Hearing what Lu Qingshan said, Luo stood there in shock, her eyes filled with astonishment.

How could such an incredible treasure exist in the world?

No wonder he couldn't find similar information in the virtual universe; this thing is incredibly valuable!

"Teacher...this...this treasure..."

Luo's voice trembled slightly.

If what the teacher said is true, then after obtaining this treasure, he really has a chance to become a King-level expert in the future. At least, the power of a King-level expert will no longer be a problem for him.

"This treasure has no effect on me anymore, so don't delay. But remember one thing: never let anyone know about this, or your teacher will be in big trouble. Do you understand...?"

"Master, I understand."

Luo's eyes were resolute.

He knew that it must have been extremely difficult for his teacher to obtain this treasure, perhaps because he had offended some powerful figures.

Even if he were to die, he would never reveal this information.

"Luo, you can fuse it. The method is very simple: just incorporate it into your immortal divine body. The longer you persist, the greater the benefits you will gain."

"The disciple understands."

Luo looked at the treasure, unleashed his divine power, and absorbed the source blood crystal sand into his divine body.

moment.

He felt a change in his divine body.

His newly formed and unstable immortal body seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

But Luo understood that her teacher wouldn't harm her.

He struggled to maintain the stability of his divine body, but this was only the beginning. Soon, as the source blood crystal sand began to decompose, tiny grains of sand entered every part of his divine body.

The intense pain went straight to my soul.

This feeling.

It's like a divine body being sliced ​​open piece by piece, then reformed, and then sliced ​​open again.

If he cannot hold on, his divine body will likely collapse.

"persist in!"

Luo's gaze was firm.

"There is no danger to life if I fuse with the source blood crystal sand. Even if my divine body collapses, I will recover afterward. However, there is no need to tell Luo about this. I can't let him know that there is a final safety net."

Lu Qingshan looked at Luo, who was fusing with the source blood crystal sand, and nodded slightly.

Giving this source blood crystal sand to Luo is a very good choice.

He raised his hand.

Time seemed to stand still around this house; no matter how much noise Luo made inside, it was impossible for anyone outside to detect it.

Within the primordial chaos city of the universe.

After the Ghost King's clone bestowed the Source Blood Crystal Sand upon Luo, news of the return of the cash followed.

[You bestowed upon your disciple Luoyuan Blood Crystal Sand, receiving a thousandfold return; you, in return, obtain Blood Source Crystal Stones...]

Blood Crystal, what is that?

It seems to have some connection with the Source Blood Crystal Sand.

The Origin Blood Crystal Sand that Lu Qingshan bestowed upon Luo is a natural treasure, born from the primordial universe, and has no connection with the innate Beast God. Therefore, the treasure that was returned is also unrelated to the Beast God.

Lu Qingshan entered his inner world, and the Time Overlord Armor unfolded, transforming into a gigantic suit of armor several hundred meters tall. Only then did Lu Qingshan take out the Blood Source Crystal to examine it.

What a huge rock.

This Blood Source Crystal is a crimson stone that looks rather ordinary, a far cry from the previous Blood Source Crystal Sand.

However, this thing seems to have some similarities with the Thunder Source Crystal.

Could it be that the method of use is the same as that of the Thunder Source Crystal?
The names differ by only one character, and the methods of use are likely to be the same, since there are only a few ways to use these kinds of treasures!
Lu Qingshan took out a dagger and gently pried at the Blood Source Crystal. The crystal wasn't very sturdy, similar to the Thunder Source Crystal he'd encountered before. Lu Qingshan took out a small piece and attempted to fuse it...

"It worked!"

After this small piece of blood crystal came into contact with his blood, it directly merged into his body.

Lu Qingshan could clearly feel the changes in his body. It was warm and comfortable, unlike the painful fusion of the Blood Crystal and the Source Blood Crystal Sand. It was like taking a hot bath.

"Comfortable, so comfortable!"

I felt like I was floating on air.

Lu Qingshan's body also quietly changed during the fusion process. Several hours later, when the comfortable feeling dissipated, Lu Qingshan discovered that his genes had doubled.

Thirty-one times!
Such a small piece can double the improvement, so...

Lu Qingshan stared at the blood-source crystal, which was the size of a millstone...
