Return to Earth

Lin Qingyu's first session in the Nutrition Pod lasted ten days. During those ten days, he broke through from Planetary level 1st stage to Planetary level 4.

"Not bad." Lin Qingyu said.

"Of course. This is Virtual Universe Company technology. But you'll need to rest for a while afterward. According to the plan, the Nutrition Pod sessions will be divided into five rounds. The first will get you to Planetary level 4, the second to the sixth stage, the third to the seventh stage, the fourth to the eighth stage, and the final one to Planetary level 9th stage. Including the breaks in between, it will take three months in total," Bata said.

"Then we can return to Earth. We can use the pod once more on the way, and by the time I come to Qiu Long Star again, I'll be able to withdraw the funds from the account Teacher left behind," Lin Qingyu said. "By then, I'll also buy some weapons and detection devices to place on Earth, in case anyone else enters. It would be even better if I could become Earth Lord."

"Forget about becoming Earth Lord. To become Earth Lord, you need a complete flight route. The Dark Universe coordinates near Earth were concealed by the old master. If you fly slowly, it'll take at least tens of thousands of years. Unless a wormhole appears near Earth, you won't be able to provide a normal flight route," Bata said, shaking his head.

"That's true." Lin Qingyu did not argue with Bata.

He had read the Original work and knew there was a wormhole that led to a place just over two light-years from Earth. However, he had no way to prove it now, nor could he afford a detector capable of scanning such a vast area.

For now, all he could do was inherit Hu Yanbo's legacy first, then purchase all kinds of weapons and defensive equipment. Once those cosmic adventurers came to Earth, he would wipe them all out in one go.

Of course, the most important thing was still his own cultivation. It was only 2052 now, and there were still nearly ten years before the cosmic adventurers arrived. With his talent, in ten years, he could even try to destroy the entire Nolan Mountain family alone.

"Oh, right. I haven't been idle during these days in the Nutrition Pod. I've gained some insights into the application of Origin Force," Lin Qingyu said to Bata, as though he had suddenly remembered.

"Insights? What kind of insights? Show me," Bata said.

The Black Dragon Mountain - 81 spaceship was sturdy enough, so there was no need to worry about damaging it.

Lin Qingyu nodded. He lightly mobilized some Wood attribute Origin Force around his hand and casually struck forward.

"Gasp—Origin Law! You actually comprehended Origin Law! You're only at the Planetary level!"

There was even a trace of shock in Bata's voice. Even his previous master, Huyan Bo, had absolutely not comprehended Origin Law at the Planetary level. That would have been far too outrageous.

"It's alright," Lin Qingyu said. "When I reached Domain Sixth Level on Earth, I could already sense the fluctuations of Origin Law. Recently, I also discovered a new method of comprehension that suited me. Not only did my Domain advance another level, but I also gained a clearer understanding of Origin Law. It's only natural that I crossed the threshold into Origin Law."

Lin Qingyu had great confidence in his own comprehension. In his eyes, the fact that he was a genius was simply an objective reality. He would be happy over progress in cultivation, but he would not become arrogant because of it.

Because Lin Qingyu understood that the ones he was competing against were the greatest geniuses of the universe, countless powerhouses from other Eras of Reincarnation, and even innumerable mighty beings from the Origin Continent and the Primal Chaos Dimension.

For his ultimate goal, comprehending laws was merely a step so small it could not be smaller.

"Alright, let's head to Bailan Star first, pick up the one hundred thousand tons of Purple Light Dew, then return to Earth," Lin Qingyu ordered.

"OK!" Bata activated the spaceship and began flying toward Bailan Star.

Nine days later, the Black Dragon Mountain - 81 spaceship brought Lin Qingyu to Bailan Star.

After receiving the warm hospitality of Bailan Star's Department of Commerce, Lin Qingyu spent a little more money to purchase several warehouses and set up several castle-style residences on Bailan Star.

To Lin Qingyu, it was only a small sum, less than ten million Black Dragon Coins. Yet judging from the expressions of those people in Bailan Star's Commerce Bureau, it was already a major deal to them.

"Bata, after we return to Earth this time, I'll reveal part of the situation in the universe to my master and Hall Master Hong. I'll also introduce the parts related to Yunmo Star," Lin Qingyu said.

"That's fine, but the fact that you are the old master's inheritor absolutely cannot be exposed," Bata said. "Just say that you obtained an artificial intelligence and an inheritance from someone in the universe at Dead Zone No. 12, and that you learned about Earth and the universe through that inheritance."

"Mm, I know what I'm doing," Lin Qingyu replied.

One day later, Bailan Star's Commerce Bureau finished arranging the castles Lin Qingyu had purchased.

Lin Qingyu left several slaves on Bailan Star and had them stay in contact with him through the Virtual Universe. Then he took the others aboard the spaceship and began the journey back to Earth.

Eight hours later, Black Dragon Mountain - 81 arrived in the Dark Universe region corresponding to Earth.

However, because of Hu Yanbo's space Secret Method, the coordinates corresponding to the real universe here had been obscured, and the spaceship could not head directly to Earth.

Bata controlled the spaceship and began circling in place.

Lin Qingyu knew that it was searching for Earth's coordinates according to the requirements of the Secret Method.

"Earth is protected by the master's space Secret Method. We need to follow a specific trajectory for five minutes before finding the correct destination," Bata said.

"I understand." Lin Qingyu nodded.

Suddenly, an idea appeared in his mind. He directly spread out all his Mental Force, enveloping the surrounding space.

"Lin Qingyu? What are you doing?" Bata asked.

"I was thinking, isn't this Teacher's space Secret Method? If I sense it carefully, perhaps I might find some traces," Lin Qingyu said.

"Pfft—this is hilarious, Lin Qingyu. You're far too naive." Bata laughed in Lin Qingyu's mind. "Although I have to admit that your talent far surpasses your teacher's, you haven't cultivated for long enough. Your teacher was Undying, and a powerhouse even among the Undying. At your current level, it's impossible for you to detect his Secret Method."

"There's nothing to lose by trying. Besides, my detection can't interfere with Teacher's Secret Method anyway," Lin Qingyu said.

"Fine, then try." Bata did not stop Lin Qingyu. He was very confident in Huyan Bo's Secret Method.

In his view, Lin Qingyu was destined to accomplish nothing.

If Lin Qingyu had only possessed ordinary detection methods, Bata's judgment would not have been wrong. However, Lin Qingyu possessed Will Space.

Five minutes later, spatial ripples spread within the Solar System, and a pitch-black spaceship appeared out of thin air. The universe traversal was successful.

"Did you sense anything?" Bata asked smugly.

"Using Mental Force detection alone really can't sense it. Next time, I'll use my Domain," Lin Qingyu replied.

"Hehe, using your Domain won't work either. You should just cultivate properly and wait until you catch up to your teacher."

Lin Qingyu was right. Mental Force alone truly could not detect Huyan Bo's methods.

However, Will Space, whose sensing range was exactly the same as his, successfully recorded the process of the universe traversal.

Although it had only recorded an Information Model, that was enough for Lin Qingyu to analyze slowly.
