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

Chapter 85 The Path to Immortality Has Been Opened!

[You have bestowed upon your disciple Paris and the Thunderous Purple Jade Mystic Thunder Crystal, receiving a hundredfold return. You have also obtained 2 cubic meters of Thunder Source Crystal Stones...]

It's actually a Thunder Source Crystal?
Lu Qingshan took a deep breath and stared incredulously at the crystal that looked like a stone tablet that had appeared in front of him.

Can this thing really be this big?

This was not the first time Lu Qingshan had received a return on a Thunder Source Crystal. Last time, he obtained a small piece, and after integrating it into himself, his talent for the Thunder Origin Law was enhanced a hundredfold.

From then on, he went from having mediocre talent to becoming a genius who cultivated the fundamental laws of lightning.

But this time, the golden finger brought him such a large piece.

"Does the system force me to become a genius at cultivating the laws of lightning?"

Lu Qingshan already knew how to use it, so he didn't hesitate any longer, cut off a piece, and carefully integrated it into his body.

A moment later, Lu Qingshan could feel that the fundamental laws of lightning around him seemed to be clearer.

For example.

At first, he couldn't see or touch anything at all, he could only feel things like a blind man touching an elephant, and he only grasped a tiny bit. After he obtained the Thunder Source Crystal and transformed his body last time, he was like someone with myopia of 500 degrees, he could see and feel things vaguely. This was already an extremely genius existence.

And now... as the Thunder Source Crystal merges back into his body, his vision is gradually becoming clearer. Perhaps if he merges the entire stone tablet into his body, he will be able to see it clearly.

At that time, his affinity with the fundamental laws of lightning will reach its peak, and he will truly become a favorite of the fundamental laws of lightning...

"My achievements are entirely due to my own hard work!"

Looking at the clearly visible fundamental laws of lightning on Mount Fenglei, Lu Qingshan sighed inwardly.

Next up is the cashback from Lingyu.

[You bestowed upon your disciple the Spirit Feather Dragon Soul Jade (fragment), receiving a thousandfold return; you also obtained the Immortal Soul-Soothing Grass...]

Immortal Soul-Soothing Herb!
Could this be a treasure used by immortals?
Lu Qingshan immediately instructed Nasus to search. After becoming a top-tier instructor in the Qianwu Secret Realm, his authority had been greatly enhanced, and information about the Immortal God stage that was previously unavailable could now be found.

This immortal rejuvenating herb is among them!
This thing...

Lu Qingshan looked at the introduction.

"It turns out that after achieving immortality, the soul undergoes a complete transformation, merging into every wisp of divine power within the body, and is no longer merely a soul form..."

"No wonder top human geniuses all arrange to go to Chaos City once, because only before immortality, when the soul is outwardly manifested... can the Lord of Chaos City clearly determine whether it is a human soul or whether it has been possessed by an alien race."

"Once one reaches immortality, every tiny bit of divine power that the soul merges into the divine body becomes so powerful that even the Lord of Chaos City cannot determine whether one is human or an alien! In such a situation, even if one goes to the primordial universe, one would be closely monitored!"

Having understood the form of the immortal soul, Lu Qingshan naturally understood the function of the Immortal Soul-Soothing Grass.

The Immortal Soul-Soothing Grass is not a rare treasure for immortal gods to use, but a treasure that can greatly enhance the final leap and transformation of the soul of a peak Realm Lord. That is one of the barriers to immortality. In addition to the complete lower-level laws and the hundredfold increase in power, the complete transformation of the soul is also one of the key aspects!

Immortality is truly difficult!

Even mastering a single lower-level fundamental law wasn't enough; only by being immersed in it could Lu Qingshan truly understand the gap between reality and his memories.

Indeed, Luo Feng was already at the Realm Lord stage, and his will was already at the level of an Immortal Venerable. His soul had long since undergone a complete transformation. Soul will has never been the bottleneck for the protagonist; a solid primordial core is.

Therefore, the most difficult part for Luo Feng in breaking through to immortality was breaking through the incredibly solid core of the Golden Horned Beast. All the descriptions and creation techniques revolve around this. But for ordinary humans, a life core? What is that? Is it that hard?
The most difficult hurdle for Luo Feng is actually the easiest for ordinary realm masters. It is the exertion of power and soul will that pose the greatest challenge for ordinary realm masters, as it presents no bottleneck for Luo Feng.

"With this Immortal Soul-Soothing Grass, I can say that I have already stepped halfway into the Immortal stage, and the road ahead is bright."

Lu Qingshan carefully stored the Immortal Soul-Soothing Grass inside his own body.

For him now, immortality is no longer an unattainable dream.

The primary condition is the fundamental law of lightning! For him before, it was nothing; he only needed to wait for the right time to fully comprehend it. Now that he has obtained such a large piece of lightning source crystal, his affinity and potential have greatly improved, so it is no problem at all.

Secondly, physical exertion! He is already exerting 94 times his strength, having cultivated the Thunder Ten Revolutions to the final level. He only needs to complete the Thunder Ten Revolutions cultivation to achieve this 100-fold strength goal.

The Thunder Ten Revolutions technique aligns with the fundamental laws of lightning, making his cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.

Thirdly, regarding the transformation of the soul, Lu Qingshan is not of Earthling blood, so his soul and will are a problem. However, with the Immortal Soul-Soothing Grass, coupled with the Thousand Threads Soul Refining technique in "Soul Analysis" and the constant reincarnation in the illusion, the possibility of a complete soul transformation before achieving immortality has greatly increased.

Finally, there's the primordial core. His human form isn't a Ghost King clone, unlike Luo Feng's. His life core isn't sturdy, and with his abilities, it's easy to break through... It's just that the Ghost King's primordial core has a problem. However, for someone who has analyzed the fundamental laws of time, creating secret techniques in the future will be much simpler, so it shouldn't be a problem.

In summary.

Lu Qingshan has already taken one step into the gate of immortality.

……

Just as Lu Qingshan was slowly integrating into the Thunder Source Crystal to increase his bloodline level and lightning affinity,

The preliminary rounds of the 'Peak Genius Battle' in the Qianwu Universe have begun.

Lu Qingshan received messages from his two disciples and Ling Yu.

Thunder is in World Zone 88.

Paris is in Zone 71 of the World.

Lingyu is in the 12th World District.

The world zones are basically randomly arranged. Of course, I can only say "basically" because this is the preliminary round of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, and they certainly wouldn't arrange another genius from the secret realm who comprehends the fundamental laws together with Lingyu.

Of course, for 99.999% of geniuses, the qualifiers are no different from completely random ones.

In the virtual universe.

Many people had already arrived early.

A row of spacious chairs were occupied by top-tier instructors, including the White-browed Realm Master, Yang, and the Blood-Eyed Realm Master... Basically, all the instructors Lu Qingshan knew were among them.

Of course, there are many more that Lu Qingshan doesn't recognize!
These are all world-leader mentors; the immortal gods are not with them.

"From this side of Qingshan..."

Yang stood up, picked up the hat from the chair next to him, and went to his seat first, saving a seat for Lu Qingshan.

Lu Qingshan smiled, nodded to the other mentors, and then sat down next to Yang.
