The stars and rivers turn, and another year has passed.
Under the influence of the Dragon Soul Jade, Lu Qingshan's soul underwent a significantly faster transformation, making it quite possible for him to even break through to the World Lord now...
However, there's a chance of failure in breaking through now, and failure could damage his soul. Lu Qingshan isn't in a hurry; he plans to use up all the soul power within the Dragon Soul Jade and wait until his soul has completely transformed before attempting a breakthrough...
It's not like it'll be more than a few years anyway, there's absolutely no need to take the risk!
Inside the World Ring, the Locke Divine Water, which was originally only the size of a small pond, has now increased considerably. Although it's still a small pond, its area is noticeably larger...
Lu Qingshan had prepared everything for this year's gifts at the Ganwu Auction. He gifted the ten sets of Lanke Fruit he won at the auction to Lei Ming and Parisi. These Lanke Fruit would allow them to cultivate the Cloud-Touching Vine to the Universe Level 9...
The returned treasure is still Locke Divine Water, but it's three times the amount from last time! A full 30,000 cubic meters.
However, that's all. The system's judgment on cultivating plant life is based on their own strength. In other words, they are currently at the Star Level Nine, but they are only allowed to elevate plant life to the Universe Level 9...
Perhaps only after they break through to the Universe Level will the restrictions be lifted.
There are no instructions on how to use the cheat system; it only provides feedback when Lu Qingshan triggers a certain mechanism of the system.
For example, Qian Wu be returned, gifts can only be given once a year, and gifts of excessively high-level items unrelated to the disciple cannot be returned...
Lu Qingshan figured all of this out on his own.
For example, when Lu Qingshan encountered the One-Horned Ghost King's horn, he realized that it could be bestowed upon Ling Yu, because there was a close connection between the two.
Lu Qingshan needs to explore all the boundaries himself, which has its advantages, as it adds more fun to the exploration and makes the joy of opening blind boxes more than just that.
Looking at this pool full of Locke Divine Water...
Lu Qingshan's eyes held a hint of solemnity.
"That Immortal from the Treasure Pavilion guessed I still had other Locke Divine Water on me, and he was right... That guy's been watching me like a persistent ghost; he's still a bit troublesome..."
"Fortunately, I'm absolutely safe in the Ganwu Mystic Region... As long as I reach the World Lord Level and acquire other treasures, I have a good chance of escaping even from the clutches of Immortal God..."
Lu Qingshan already had a plan in mind.
He wouldn't leave Ganwu City, let alone the Ganwu Mystic Region, until he becomes World Lord.
As for retaliation, that's for sure...
Having lived for 90,000 years, even though his mindset is much more stable now, Lu Qingshan is still not the type to not fight back when bullied.
Everything will have to wait until I break through to the next level and the One-Horned Ghost King Avatar is born.
Perhaps that Clone of the One-Horned Ghost King could bring him a different kind of surprise.
His knowledge of the One-Horned Ghost King came solely from the introduction at the auction, lacking much useful information.
"Two more years..."
Lu Qingshan looked at a giant white egg that was gestating life on the bank of the pond not far away.
This is his Clone, and it will be successfully conceived in two years...
" Star Eater."
Lu Qingshan called out.
A massive creature with thick roots and leaves covered in sharp serrations emerged from the pool.
Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's call, his leaves fluttered as if expressing his emotions.
"So happy..."
" Star Eater, from now on, you can consume all of this Locke Divine Water as you please... Strive to break through to the World Lord level as soon as possible. Only when you reach the World Lord can you help me, understand?"
Lu Qingshan stroked the leaves of the Star-Eating Grass.
The other serrated leaves of the Star-Eating Grass, resembling a kitten's head, were curled up and pressed against Lu Qingshan's trouser leg.
After exiting the World Ring, Lu Qingshan's consciousness once again entered the Star Chart containing nine stars.
"Yesterday, Ling Yu provided me with a thousandfold return on the Time Origin Law. This time, I should be able to fully comprehend all nine stars at once. I wonder if, after fully comprehending these nine stars, things will turn out as I expected..."
The Star Map, as always, emitted a faint Starlight. Lu Qingshan's consciousness shifted directly from the first seven stars to the eighth star...
In an instant, countless insights into the Time Origin Law flooded his mind... The Time Law he had previously comprehended, as well as the cashback he received from Ling Yu yesterday, were all naturally deduced and integrated in his mind...
Gradually, it manifested as a swordsmanship manual...
"This move is called Moon Slashing..."
Elegant and beautiful.
"This move is called Starlight..."
It was as brilliant and beautiful as the Galaxy; with a single stroke, it transformed into Starlight!
The two manuals, each move and technique, evolved within Lu Qingshan's consciousness, gradually becoming perfect.
Consciousness returns.
"How long did I spend contemplating Nasus this time?"
"Master, a total of 17 days and 21 hours have passed this time."
"It's been this long!"
Lu Qingshan was somewhat surprised. Previously, it would only take him a maximum of fourteen days to comprehend the Star Chart, but this time he broke the record directly.
Perhaps it's the transformation of my soul that allowed me to persevere longer and feel the pressure from within. Also, there were too many Time Law to organize this time, which is why it took so long.
The longer you spend reflecting, the greater the gains you will make.
"Now I have fully comprehended all nine stars in that Star Chart, and with the addition of the Moon Slashing and Starlight manuals, ' Qingshan ' has collected nine sword technique manuals..."
"These nine secret manuals, each representing one of the essential Time Origin Law... together they form a complete Star Chart... no, not a complete Star Chart. Nine stars are nine stars, and a complete Star Chart is a complete Star Chart; these are two different concepts..."
"No wonder the Star Chart didn't change at all; it turns out I still haven't fully grasped it... Perhaps, only by understanding all the combinations and variations of these nine essences..."
Lu Qingshan had a slight smile on his face.
He has already grasped the nine essential principles; would it be difficult to connect them and integrate them into a cohesive whole?
Perhaps after a few more attempts to comprehend the Star Chart, I will succeed.
With my current understanding of the Time Origin Law, if I were to attempt to cross the Heavenly Bridge that records these Time Origin Law, reaching the fifth level would likely be no problem...
This is already much stronger than many World Lord have mastered Higher Law... Bolan had the spatial Law Comprehension of World Lord Level at the Star Level, but even if he didn't choose the Universe Chaos Stele and instead tried to break through the Nine Universes Heavenly Bridge that simply records the Space Origin Law, he would probably only be able to reach the third or fourth level at most.
This was after Bolan had completed three years of training and broken through to the Universe Level...
I've taken the route of analyzing the essence of the Time Origin Law. My progress was slow in the early stages, and reaching this level in just a few years would probably surprise many important figures.
Take Luo Feng for example. He spent thirty years in Chaos City, while it took him nearly a hundred years in the outside world, to master the first nine essential elements of the Space Origin Law. Even that amazed True Yan King, an Invincible King.
Lu Qingshan's ability to master nine essences in just a few years in the Primal Universe is simply unreasonable!
It cannot be said that Lu Qingshan's higher cultivation level allowed him to bully others. He is currently at the Domain Lord level, while Luo Feng's original Golden Horned Beast form was also at the Domain Lord level. Their cultivation levels are comparable, so there is no question of one of them gaining an advantage.
Lu Qingshan didn't use any cheats; he just didn't turn them off...
