"Mr. De'en, I've been waiting for you for a long time..."
The Immortal God Kabel personally came to greet them from outside the planet.
" Kabel, you know I came from the headquarters of the Universe Mercenary Alliance, a long journey..."
De'en spoke calmly. Although he was only a World Lord, he showed no fear in the face of Immortal God.
De'en — the World Lord of the Core Secret Realm of the Universe Mercenary Alliance... possesses immense power, comparable to Immortal.
" Kabel, we agreed beforehand that if we obtain the treasure or legacy from that place you mentioned, we'll pretend we know nothing about it. But if we can't gain anything, or even get into it, we'll jointly donate it to the Universe Mercenary Alliance..."
"No problem... Even if we can't get it, getting a contribution reward is still pretty good!"
The Immortal God Kabel, the helmsman of the Kabel Starfield, had no objections. He continued, "We probably need to hurry; the patriarch of the Herrera Family has been inside for quite some time..."
"The Herrera Family has no reason to exist! I don't want others to share in my credit!" De'en said coldly.
"Don't worry, when you messaged me, I sent people over to silence them... Not a single member of the Herrera Family will be left alive... Even if it's just a contribution to the Mercenary Alliance, they won't get a single penny!"
I trust you to handle things.
De'en nodded.
"In that case, let's go over there."
An E9-class spaceship appeared out of thin air. The Immortal God Kabel and De'en entered the spaceship together and disappeared over the planet in a moment.
At this moment, in the mysterious space where time is flowing at an accelerated pace, Herrera is unaware that his family is being exterminated because he is unable to connect to the Virtual Universe. He looks at Lu Qingshan's Ghost King Avatar with anticipation.
"So, how much longer?"
"Don't rush us, it's almost done."
The Ghost King Avatar closed his eyes and pondered. The countless changes of the 108 stars continued to evolve in his mind, like playing with a Rubik's Cube. Almost all the faces were in place, leaving only one different color that was very obvious.
A small difference can lead to a huge error!
Lu Qingshan frowned slightly.
If one cannot comprehend the 108 essential principles of the Time Origin Law, it will likely take a very long time to unravel this Star Labyrinth; one must try each method step by step!
Lu Qingshan didn't want to waste time here... He'd rather use a wisp of Silver Soul Fruit's aura on his main body.
"Hmm? Maybe we don't need to..."
Lu Qingshan closed his eyes, and a wisp of his consciousness sank into the 72 Star Map.
[Your disciple Ling Yu has comprehended the eighth essence of the Time Origin Law, receiving a thousandfold return; you have gained experience from the Time Origin Law.]
Ling Yu's breakthrough was like a refreshing rain in the desert. Lu Qingshan's consciousness raced, and relying on this experience, he quickly grasped the final essence of the Time Origin Law...
"I have comprehended all 108 essential principles... My understanding of the Time Origin Law has now surpassed that of most Immortal God."
Lu Qingshan regained consciousness.
Looking at the Star Labyrinth ahead again, the solution instantly became clear. He quickly changed the arrangement of the 108 stars, almost completely scrambling the previous arrangement.
About three days have passed.
Lu Qingshan placed a star in the last position.
suddenly.
108 planets simultaneously shone with golden light.
A 100-meter-high passageway slowly emerges amidst the 108 stars...
" The Star Labyrinth has opened!"
Herrera was shocked.
The moment the star passage appeared, his body flew towards it and plunged straight into it.
Lu Qingshan could have stopped him, but he didn't...
About three seconds after Herrera entered, a scream rang out... Lu Qingshan's expression became slightly serious.
"What unknown dangers lie on the other side of this passage?"
He frowned slightly.
Lu Qingshan couldn't see what was happening on the other side, but the sound could be heard here, which meant that the two sides were definitely communicating!
" Krachi!"
Lu Qingshan released Krachi from his Internal World and pointed to the passage ahead.
"Go in."
Krachi was not a puppet, yet he was almost one. Upon receiving the order, he instantly flew into the room, but less than a second later, screams rang out again.
" An Cong, come over here!"
An Cong had no choice.
This time, it only survived for a second.
"Three seconds and one second."
"If Herrera can hold out for three seconds, the danger on the other side of the passage shouldn't be fatal to me."
The Ghost King Avatar made a decision quickly.
Without hesitation, they crawled directly into the tunnel.
After Lu Qingshan's Ghost King Avatar entered the passage, the 108 Star Labyrinth returned to their original state. This passage has a time limit.
On the other side of the passage was a huge square, where countless phantom-like Phantom Body wandered around.
The moment Lu Qingshan appeared, several ghostly Phantom Body within ten meters of him pounced on him.
" Soul Annihilation!"
The Star-Slaying Blade unleashed a beam of light, slicing several ghostly Phantom Body in half and hindering their advance... However, after a moment, they coalesced once more.
"What is this thing? It's unkillable... And it seems only approaching ghosts will attack me. There are many powerful beings here; I can't move around freely!"
In that instant, Lu Qingshan had already surveyed the entire layout of the plaza...
Besides the three corpses that were already dead, there were 32 houses around the square. Thirty-one of them had collapsed, but one house was intact. Lu Qingshan noticed that the ghosts did not dare to approach that house.
The ghostly Phantom Body lunged at Lu Qingshan once more.
" Thunderlight Flash!"
" Time Acceleration!"
The Ghost King Avatar used his Innate Secret Technique for the first time, covering himself with a wisp of time power, instantly surpassing the speed of light. However, even at this speed, he still did not enter the Dark Universe.
With absolute speed, the Ghost King Avatar arrived outside the house in a matter of moments... In the distance, countless densely packed Phantom Body ghosts appeared, completely surrounding the exit... yet none dared to approach...
Among the ghosts here, Lu Qingshan actually saw many Immortal beings... The ghosts' attack mechanism should be related to distance; these Immortal beings were attracted by Lu Qingshan's Ghost King Avatar during its Time Acceleration journey...
"As expected, my guess was right... This is the safe zone, or rather, there's something even more terrifying here."
Lu Qingshan preferred the first option...
"No danger!"
Lu Qingshan carefully observed his surroundings.
Suddenly, the room he was in began to shake violently... the ground began to collapse, and then layer upon layer of underground palaces appeared...
The Ghost King Avatar offered no resistance and landed straight on the first level of the underground palace...
Suddenly, countless pieces of information flooded into his soul...
This is a secret technique called " The Body of Time ".
The moment the secret technique appeared.
Countless forces of Time Law appeared and began to erode his body... The erosion process was very harmful to his body, but if he could persevere, he would gain unexpected benefits.
To persevere, you must comprehend this secret technique called the Body of Time!
Fortunately, the Ghost King Avatar 50 times the genes and is a favorite of the Time Origin Law, so comprehending the secret method of the Time Origin Law is inherently simple. If the main body were here, it would probably be extremely difficult.
The corrosive power did not cause much damage to the Ghost King Avatar, Lu Qingshan's Ghost King Avatar quickly and easily comprehended this very small part of the first level of the secret technique.
Then he went to the second floor.
This layer of erosion was about 50% more powerful, but it still didn't do much harm to Lu Qingshan. It took him about an hour to fully comprehend the secret technique of this layer.
The third floor...
All the way up to the 150th floor.
Time had passed indefinitely. The Ghost King Avatar, completely absorbed in Law Comprehension, hadn't even bothered to perceive the vast difference in the passage of time between itself and its true self...
Lu Qingshan's Ghost King Avatar gradually began to feel overwhelmed.
Although each level of the " Body of Time " contains only a very small portion of the content, and the secret techniques are deeply ingrained in the soul, automatically granting profound understanding, fully comprehending it is still not an easy task.
And this corrosive power, I don't know where it comes from, is simply a perfect aid to cultivating the secret technique of " Body of Time "!
Without this power, it would probably take a thousand times, ten thousand times longer to successfully cultivate!
As Lu Qingshan persevered, he comprehended the profound mysteries of the secret technique. Just as his body was about to give out, a cool sensation appeared, and his body was restored to its original state. The next level of the underground palace reappeared.
"We can't be stingy with those Silver Soul Fruit!"
When Lu Qingshan broke into the two-hundredth level of the underground palace, the speed at which he cultivated the secret technique began to fall behind the speed of erosion.
Lu Qingshan himself decisively ate the Silver Soul Fruit!
In an instant, his intellectual comprehension increased by more than a thousand times, and the enhancement of his Law Comprehension at the World Lord Level was almost fully activated.
"Very good... very simple..."
"The mysterious person who left behind this legacy seems afraid that the inheritor wouldn't understand it, so this method of dividing the secret into small parts is practically like feeding someone a meal."
Three hundred floors.
Five hundred floors.
One thousand five hundred floors.
Lu Qingshan walked all the way to the fifth thousandth floor... Upon reaching this point, even with the comprehension gained from consuming the Silver Soul Fruit, the Ghost King Avatar, and the World Lord Level Law Comprehension, his cultivation speed began to lag behind the rate of erosion.
Without further hesitation, he decisively chose to end it... He had a premonition that continuing would be very dangerous.
Five thousand floors...
"I've achieved a basic level of mastery over this Body of Time... and I've acquired all the subsequent content, but there will never be such a simple cultivation method again."
With the help of this corrosive power, Lu Qingshan's cultivation was like a fish in water. Without this condition, it would be very difficult to continue his cultivation.
Even so, there's nothing we can do...
He has reached his limit; if the Human Main Body were to come, he probably wouldn't even be able to get past the 500th floor.
In the five-thousand-layer underground palace, Lu Qingshan could feel his power increase fiftyfold!
Taking into account his 50 times genetic strength, it can be said that his current full-force attack is already 2500 times that of World Lord Ninth Stage Peak!
This is already at the power level of Marquis Immortal God!
