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

Chapter 48: So this is an analysis of the essence of the fundamental laws of time.
"This, this, this..."

Lu Qingshan was completely stunned when the memories of the fourth level of "Thunder Flash" were fully released.

Is this still the original version of the cheat code I created?

Lu Qingshan was somewhat bewildered.

Because this secret manual he created has now completely become something he can't understand.

The fourth level is separated from the third level by what seems like a star field. There is very little content related to the fundamental laws of lightning in the fourth level, and almost 90% of the content is related to the fundamental laws of time.

The third level only contains a small amount of the fundamental laws of time, which Lu Qingshan can still comprehend in part.

He can't even get close to the fourth level now!
"It seems that I can forget about understanding the secret technique of the fourth level before I have fully mastered the third level..."

The law of time.

He has only just begun to understand the laws of time, with a mastery level of only 0.12%. Even at the third level of Lightning Flash, he can only create 36 illusions, which is far from the limit of 108 illusions at the third level!

Without elevating the fundamental laws of time, what follows is meaningless to him.

"what is that?"

Suddenly, Lu Qingshan noticed a starry sky pattern hidden deep in his memory, which appeared along with the fourth level of the Thunder Flash secret technique.

This picture...

Lu Qingshan glanced at it and realized that he couldn't shift his consciousness.

One, two, three... a total of nine stars of varying sizes and shapes appeared in a vast starry sky, arranged irregularly in a distorted yet natural form.

Lu Qingshan's gaze fell upon the star closest to him, and suddenly, all the memories of the third level of the Lightning Flash surfaced in his mind.

It turned out to be like this...

ridiculous.

I have mastered the first and second levels of Lightning Flash, and no one can surpass me, but my grasp of the third level is so crude.

These 36 illusory forms have so many ways of changing! My previous experience only taught me how to use them, but I knew nothing about their origins. But now…

I think I've glimpsed the very essence of illusion...

nature!

Lu Qingshan felt discomfort coming from his soul and hurriedly severed his connection with the star map. His consciousness returned to reality, and before he knew it, ten days had passed in the outside world.

At this moment, Lu Qingshan's eyes no longer held regret for not being able to cultivate the fourth level of the secret technique, but rather shock!

That's right!

Lu Qingshan was shocked by the star map of the nine planets. What the planets showed seemed to be the essence of the most primitive time-based laws of the universe... and Lu Qingshan's understanding of the star map was the process of dissecting the essence of the time-based laws.

"How can this be!"

Lu Qingshan wasn't lamenting that he had unexpectedly embarked on this path. Analyzing the essence of the laws was an extremely secretive matter for others, even for immortal powerhouses. Even among the five most powerful forces, it was rarely popularized among geniuses.

Because this road is too difficult to travel!
It's not that the secret methods are precious, nor that there's no lineage, but rather that most people are simply not suited to take this path. Once they choose it, they can only waste time and squander their limited lives.

While both are principles, understanding and mastering them are two completely different things. One teaches you how to apply principles, while the other teaches you to analyze the fundamental nature of principles.

To give an example, it's like using a lithography machine is simple, but making a lithography machine and then using it is extremely difficult!

To put it another way, one is to use a known formula to solve the problem, and the other is the process of deriving the formula.

Lu Qingshan's previous understanding of the fundamental laws of lightning was largely based on the system's rebates, giving him a deep foundation and mastery of almost all the basic branches. In fact, he was similar to following that path. However, there are subtle differences between the two. He did not completely follow that path; otherwise, he would not have been able to gain recognition of the fundamental laws of lightning so quickly.

The Law of Lightning was his guarantee for breaking through to immortality and obtaining eternal life. Lu Qingshan would not act recklessly, and it was even more impossible for him to rashly step into a dangerous and unknown place without guidance.

What truly shocked Lu Qingshan was...

This star chart, which contains nine stars, seems to have served a similar purpose to the primordial chaos monument of the universe.

Lu Qingshan's comprehension of the star map is an analysis of the most primordial essence of time. What is the difference between this comprehension and the Chaos Stele that records the laws of time?
Moreover, Lu Qingshan realized that the star chart of these nine stars seemed unable to explain the vast time origin law required for the fourth level of "Thunder Flash". Perhaps there is a more vast starry sky waiting for him to explore behind these nine star charts!

Feeling the heavy pressure on his soul, Lu Qingshan dared not venture into that starry sky to comprehend it again. He closed his eyes, trying to relieve the pressure on his soul while sorting out the gains he had just made!
……

In the blink of an eye, several more days had passed. If it weren't for needing to answer his disciple Lingyu's questions, Lu Qingshan would still be immersed in organizing the gains from his last study of the Star Chart.

Inside Lingyu Manor, this was the last day of Lu Qingshan's two-week teaching period.

Compared to half a month ago, Lingyu's hair was a bit messy, and her eyes were slightly red. Clearly, the past two weeks hadn't been easy for her...

"Should we give up?"

Lu Qingshan asked.

"No, teacher... I have grasped a pattern, but I still have many questions waiting for you to answer."

Ling Yu said firmly, "I said I would never give up, I will never give up!"

Looking at the determined girl, Lu Qingshan smiled.

It's good not to give up.

We should not give up.

If you don't work hard, how can your teacher become stronger?

"Speak, tell me your doubts!"

Lu Qingshan spoke in a kind tone with a smile on his face.

……

A day later, Lu Qingshan gave standard answers to all the questions Ling Yu had raised.

Not only that, Lu Qingshan also provided Ling Yu with solutions in advance for several problems that she was about to encounter, or might encounter.

Of course, all of this is based on the premise that Lingyu can get started with the fundamental laws of time, and only needs to master a little bit of how to use the fundamental laws of time.

If even this cannot be done, then everything Lu Qingshan added later is actually of little use.

"From now on, I will no longer personally supervise your classes. You are free to choose my teaching time. You can study the third level of Lightning Flash, or you can improve other aspects according to the teachings of Instructor White Eyebrows."

Lu Qingshan looked at the girl in front of him and said with a smile, "Whether you can get started with the fundamental laws of time depends on yourself. No one can help you!"

“Teacher Lu.” Ling Yu’s expression was serious, and her bright eyes flashed with gratitude. “Your teachings just now have almost resolved all my doubts before I began to understand the Law of Time. If I still can’t get started, then it’s because Ling Yu’s talent is insufficient, and I can’t blame anyone else…”

"Come on!"

After giving Ling Yu a word of encouragement, Lu Qingshan turned and left... In terms of movement techniques, Ling Yu had reached the limit of the Nine Illusionary Body. He had done all he could to help with the entry-level Time Law, and now he could only rely on himself.

Lu Qingshan's teaching task was almost completed before Ling Yu learned the laws of time. The focus now was on Bai Mei!

After leaving Lingyu, Lu Qingshan returned to the training room of the villa, his consciousness once again immersing itself in the vast starry sky of the nine stars!
