Chapter Summaries

Lin Qingyu demonstrated a potion whose effects were verified by the Virtual Universe, prompting Carl to help him apply for patents and seek permission to sell it. With the applications submitted, Carl offered to provide Lin Qingyu’s needed ingredients and explained how sales authorization worked.

• Lin Qingyu told Carl that his potion still had side effects and fell short of his goal of artificially producing a potion that could help people comprehend a Domain or Origin Law.

• The Undying auditors praised Lin Qingyu's ingenious formula and debated whether to invite him to the Apocalypse Realm or the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm.
• Luo Qingshuang offered to assess Lin Qingyu herself, and the auditors agreed because he might meet her master's requirements and help her end her assignment.

After the Virtual Universe Company approved Luo Qingshuang’s field assessment, she met Lin Qingyu and tested his potion-making skills. She planned to train him in reality for ten years to determine his core-member standing, while admitting she felt an unexplained connection to him.

He promised to meet her teacher’s requirements within ten years, while Luo Qingshuang planned to visit Qiu Long Star in a little over a year.

• Lin Qingyu met Luo Qingshuang after passing his first Virtual Universe Company assessment, and she told him his authority now matched that of an Apocalypse Realm member.

• Lin Qingyu promised to keep researching and considered the possibility of learning about Luo Qingshuang’s innate Secret Method.

Lin Qingyu studied the Golden Horn Beast’s Secret Patterns and identified the missing step in his Domain-comprehension potion: tuning the user’s power fluctuations to match the Cosmic Origin Law. He began experimenting with a way to reproduce the Golden Horn Beast’s oscillation-source technique, while planning to analyze its Innate Clone Technique later.

• Lin Qingyu considered using his Will Space to analyze Innate Secret Techniques and decided to observe Luo Feng creating a Golden Horn Beast Clone when the chance arose.
• Lin Qingyu determined that his potion fused Mental Power and Genetic Force but lacked the frequency tuning needed to form a Domain.
• Lin Qingyu realized the potion needed an oscillation source to overwhelm chaotic power fluctuations and align them with the Cosmic Origin Law.
• Lin Qingyu discovered that the Golden Horn Beast’s Innate Secret Patterns could serve as such an oscillation source and entered the Will Space to experiment with his materials.

After more than a year of experimentation, Lin Qingyu completed a potion that fused Origin Force and Mental Force and brought them closer to the Cosmic Origin Law.

Lin Qingyu successfully developed a Gold-attribute potion that temporarily lets people wield a domain, impressing Luo Qingshuang and strengthening his prospects of joining her master's tutelage. After Lin Qingyu left, Luo Qingshuang privately hoped his innate Secret Method could help her achieve rebirth.

• Lin Qingyu explained that his potion temporarily enabled a domain rather than granting permanent comprehension, and he described its Gold-attribute and configuration requirements.
• Luo Qingshuang said the potion qualified as mass-producible and promised to tell her master, while Lin Qingyu said he would choose her master and could compete for a place in the Origin Secret Realm.

Luo Qingshuang explained how her secret method enhanced a potion and described its risks and potential for improving living beings’ Gene Levels. She told Lin Qingyu she had refused to become Undying because she believed the World Lord stage was her last chance to transform, but said she would only risk using the method on herself after thorough preparation.

• Luo Qingshuang said she rejected becoming Undying because she believed the World Lord stage was her final chance for a fundamental transformation, though she would prepare carefully before taking that risk.

Before leaving, he urged Luo Feng to cultivate diligently for the upcoming Genius Battle and told him that experts would be returning with him to guide his training.

• Lin Qingyu and Luo Qingshuang spent nearly two years improving their potion, extending the Gold attribute version's duration to twelve hours and developing Wood and Earth attribute versions.
