Swallowing the Stars: Rebirth of the Star Illusion King

Double good news! Not only did he comprehend the [Spatial Lockdown] technique, but he also cultivated the [Divine Power Amplification] technique to a 3x amplitude. Of course, this was also because the early stages of cultivation were easier.

Star Illusion King was still immersed in the joy of comprehending the laws when he received another message from the system.

【Task:】

[Side Quest (Clan Quest 2): You have just taken on a disciple. Now, go and teach her.]

Alright, I knew I couldn't just accept students without teaching them.

Let's first look at the disciple's basic information; the more we know, the better.

Star King commands 10 star domains, and Lilith comes from the Golden Flame Star Domain. It's not that they don't have the money to buy star domains, but rather that the Dreamwing Universe Kingdom stipulates that a King-level expert can only purchase a maximum of 10 star domains.

Lilith Gran Starfall, from the Gran Galaxy in the Golden Flame Starfield, is the daughter of the current ruler of the Gran Galaxy. Well, actually, it's because Lilith is so outstanding that the previous ruler of the Gran Galaxy passed the throne to her father.

The Lilith family was originally the owners of a planet, and they were quite destitute.

Originally, Lilith wasn't considered particularly talented, but thirty years ago, she suddenly rose to prominence and became invincible in the world of the stars.

Star King laughed. Talent? Opportunity? Never mind, everyone has their own fortune.

Lilith is skilled in the laws of water and space, and has already crossed the threshold of the laws of water and space.

Hmm, it seems like getting into the top 1000 of Dreamwing Universe shouldn't be a problem, at least a top 600.

Star Illusion King smiled. He was in a good mood lately, so he decided to go and teach them a lesson.

Virtual universe.

Lilith was still practicing diligently. She wielded her sword with graceful, butterfly-like movements, but beneath her beauty lurked a deadly danger.

The moment the sword was drawn, it was as if a ferocious beast had suddenly emerged from the calm water and attacked in an instant.

"Please enlighten me, Master." Lilith cupped her hands in a respectful gesture, surprised that the Ancestor had come to designate her so soon.

Star Illusion King smiled slightly: "Your swordsmanship is not bad, but since you want to follow the path of concealing your killing intent, you should not reveal even a trace of killing intent until the moment you draw your sword to kill your enemy."

Lilith nodded: "I will follow Master's teachings."

A sword appeared in Star Illusion King's hand, and he began to wield it with swordsmanship. His swordsmanship was like a dragon and a snake, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, about to fall.

The sword stopped right in front of Lilith. Lilith felt as if she were watching a grand fireworks display, completely unaware that the fireworks were aimed at her.

Lilith broke out in a cold sweat. Good heavens, until now, she had only thought of it as watching a shooting star fall.

"Take a good look at this sword strike," Star Illusion King said with a smile.

"Yes, Master!" Lilith clasped her hands in a fist salute.

Star Illusion King smiled slightly: "Your future is limitless. Here's a million points for you. Think about how to use them yourself."

Then Star Illusion King disappeared.

In the barracks base, Star Illusion King was amused; the mission hadn't been completed after all.

【Task:】

[Side Quest (Clan Quest 2): You have just taken on a disciple. Now, go and teach her.]

Task completion rate: 10%

My goodness, the system has actually been updated, including the task progress bar.

It seems I'll have to find time to teach him a few more times.

Lilith's genius battles went very smoothly. In the arena battles of the Dreamwing Universe Kingdom, she easily defeated her opponents in both arena melees and arena finals.

However, Star King did give Lilith a suggestion: to go to the Samsara War for three years of training.

Star Illusion King knew very well that constant fighting was the best way to improve his strength. What could be more suitable than thousands of battles in a cycle?

Four years have passed in the blink of an eye.

After completing the Cycle of Reincarnation, and with the occasional guidance from Star Illusion King, Lilith gained a great deal.

Star Illusion King's "Divine Power Amplification" has been cultivated to the effect of 7 times the amplitude.

He has also mastered the third level of the ultimate martial art "Seven Killings of Ten Thousand Stars", "Hundred Stars Connecting the City".

I checked the task progress bar.

【Task:】

[Side Quest (Clan Quest 2): You have just taken on a disciple. Now, go and teach her.]

Task completion rate: 90%

Well, I should wait until this year's Genius Battle is over, then my mission will be complete, and I can go and watch the Genius Battle.

100800 geniuses from the 1008 Universe Kingdom gathered for their final showdown.

However, even Star Illusion King could sense that these geniuses were still divided into different levels.

Some geniuses are only qualified to be domain lords.

Some geniuses have the potential to become world lords.

Only those ranked in the top 100 have the potential for immortality.

Of course, talent is one thing, but how far one ultimately goes depends on the individual.

Perhaps with a great opportunity later on, it's not impossible to reach even greater heights.

Perhaps even geniuses can fall from grace along the way.

In a single tournament of geniuses, it would be quite an achievement if even one person were to be granted the title of Marquis and achieve immortality.

If you can achieve the title of King and become an immortal, you should be secretly happy.

Hmm, it seems I was the champion of that year's Genius Battle.

Virtual universe.

This is a vast continent with 1008 skyscrapers.

Star King casually ate his food at Restaurant No. 1.

Now we are in the trial space phase, where geniuses will participate in seven seven-story trial towers.

Lilith unleashed her "Ten-Line Flow," slaughtering indiscriminately within the Trial Tower.

I didn't expect Lilith to be so talented in spatial laws; I misjudged her before.

Indeed, the information shows that Lilith is skilled in water and spatial laws.

However, Lilith had only asked him about her doubts regarding the laws of water.

Ultimately, Lilith stopped at the first level of the sixth trial tower, ranking 5th overall.

The geniuses all dispersed, and Lilith received a message from the Star King.

Lilith looked at the Star Illusion King before her and respectfully bowed, saying, "Master."

Star Illusion King smiled, a smile of exquisite beauty: "Judging from your display of the Ten-Line Flowing Body Technique, it seems you have a good understanding of the laws of space."

"Master, I..."

Star Illusion King raised his hand: "Everyone has their own opportunities, that's normal. But why don't you ask me about the laws of space?"

Star Illusion King smiled and said, "After all, I am an immortal king who has mastered teleportation."

No wonder the teaching task was stuck at 90%.

Lilith was overjoyed and quickly asked Star Illusion King about the laws of space.

Star Illusion King also briefly demonstrated the Myriad Streams technique; a mere ten thousand illusory bodies were nothing special.

After all, he had mastered [teleportation] and [spatial blockade], and had also mastered most of the spatial strangulation techniques.

Under the tutelage of Star King, Lilith quickly mastered the Hundred Threads technique.

Well, with this, he should be able to become the number one in this year's Genius Battle.

Star Illusion King observed that this year's Genius Battle was neither particularly weak nor particularly strong; at least it didn't reach the level of someone like Bolan.

As Star King predicted, Lilith then won first place.

Star King was already eager to claim his mission rewards.

【Task:】

[Side Quest (Clan Quest 2): You have just taken on a disciple. Now, go and teach her.]

[Task completed.]

You will receive the following random rewards:

[Human Nemesis: You deal double damage to human populations.]

[Zerg Slayer: You deal double damage to Zerg swarms.]

[Demon Slayer: You deal double damage to demon races.]

[Mechanical Race Nemesis: You deal double damage to Mechanical Race hordes.]

[Passing on knowledge and skills: Your understanding of the laws of space has improved.]

Star Illusion King didn't even glance at the first four options, directly selecting [Passing on Knowledge and Instruction: Your understanding of the laws of space has improved.]
