Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 59 Lord
The destination we are heading to is very far away. Even if we can use the dark universe to travel, it will still take us nearly two years to get there.

Qi Yuan naturally couldn't be idle during this time.

As soon as the opportunity to return the prize money for the new month was restored, he immediately summoned Liao Li to his side.

A month has passed, and under the nourishment of the E-level nutrient chamber and the precious nutrient solution, Liao Li's realm has become extremely close to the sixth level of the stellar level, and his aura has obviously increased a lot.

"teacher."

Although Liao Li's appearance and demeanor seemed wild, she was extremely respectful to Qi Yuan.

"Here you go, sit down."

Qi Yuan smiled and pointed to the sofa in front of him.

After Liao Li sat down respectfully, he smiled and continued:

"This journey will take a lot of time, so let's not waste this time."

As he spoke, he raised his hand from his spatial ring and took out a thin, golden book less than an inch thick. The book cover had the words "Five Directions Refining God Wall" on it.

This is precisely the soul defense secret technique that the Soul Master of the Virtual Universe Company perfected based on the golden paper submitted by Qi Yuan, and is the strongest one that can be cultivated to the level of a World Lord.

Since the copyright already belonged to Virtual Universe Company, Qi Yuan had to go through special procedures before transferring his own opportunity for enlightenment to his disciple Liao Li.

"Disciple."

Qi Yuan handed the golden book containing the "Five Directions Refining God Wall" to Liao Li.

"This is an extremely valuable soul defense technique. During this journey, besides soaking in the nutrient tank to improve your cultivation, you should spend the rest of your time carefully studying this technique and try to comprehend it before we reach our destination."

"A secret technique for soul defense?"

Liao Li respectfully accepted the golden book, but her expression was somewhat troubled. "Teacher, but I am a martial artist."

"Precisely because you are a martial artist, you must pay even more attention to the defense of your soul!"

Qi Yuan interrupted him directly, "Moreover, if you want to continue to improve in the later stages of cultivation, the requirements for spirit, will, primal energy, body, realm, and other aspects are all high."

"If a wooden bucket wants to hold more water, look at the shortest plank! So, while you are improving your martial arts skills, you should also pay attention to training your spirit and will."

Upon hearing this, Liao Li respectfully replied, "Yes, teacher, I understand."

"Yes, the nutrient capsule will simultaneously enhance your physical body and mental power, so your current mental power level is not much different from that of an ordinary mentalist, which is definitely enough for you to cultivate this secret technique."

Qi Yuan waved his hand and said, "Go back and cultivate, try to comprehend it as soon as possible."

"Yes, teacher, this disciple takes his leave."

Liao Li respectfully took his leave and departed.

After she left, Qi Yuan smiled faintly and took out a book with a purple cover and large gold-embossed ancient characters.

[Thousand Tribulations Abyss: A secret technique for soul defense, using spiritual power to construct layers of abyss-like barriers, which can greatly weaken and resist soul attacks.]

"A 60x critical hit, with a total return rate of nearly two thousand times, this 'Thousand Tribulations Heart Abyss' can definitely be considered a secret technique that can reach the immortal level!"

The spaceship continued its journey through the dark universe, while Qi Yuan, while soaking in the nutrient solution to improve his cultivation level, began to study the newly acquired soul defense secret technique, "Thousand Tribulations Heart Abyss".

The Abyss of a Thousand Tribulations has a total of six realms.

Successfully condensing the first layer of the Heart Abyss Barrier is considered the entry point, which can withstand soul attacks at the planetary level.

Successfully condensing ten layers of the Heart Abyss Barrier will allow one to reach the second realm, capable of withstanding stellar-level soul attacks.

Successfully condensing one hundred, three hundred, five hundred, and one thousand layers of the Heart Abyss Barrier corresponds to the third to sixth realms, respectively capable of withstanding soul attacks ranging from the cosmic level to the immortal level. The so-called Heart Abyss Barrier is like a constantly fluctuating and flowing water barrier constructed with soul power.

When an external soul attack passes through this water barrier, its power is quickly dispersed by the undulating water flow, thus greatly reducing the intensity of the soul attack.

The layers of the Heart Abyss Barrier weakened continuously until they completely annihilated the soul attack.

The difficulty in cultivating this secret technique lies in controlling the pulsation pattern of the 'water flow' barrier, maintaining its stable existence while maximizing its ability to disperse and weaken soul attacks.

Qi Yuan's soul realm has now reached the cosmic level, and his control over his own power is extremely strong.

However, they still failed when attempting to construct the first layer of the Heart Abyss Barrier.

However, he was not discouraged. After all, the journey was long, so he could try it slowly.

And so it went, one failure after another, one attempt after another.
Time passed quietly. After the monthly return opportunities resumed, Qi Yuan would temporarily stop and use up the return opportunities in a timely manner according to the pre-planned scheme.

He spent the rest of his time completely immersed in studying and comprehending the secret techniques.
Blue Bay Starfield, Willow Spring Galaxy.

On 'Red Leaf Star,' a planet with advanced life, located near the core region of the galaxy.

A group of Nawu clan elders, dressed in gray-brown linen robes, with dark blue skin, bald heads, and heads covered with twisted golden patterns, were anxiously waiting in front of the most magnificent temple on Red Leaf Star.

"I wonder what kind of temperament our new lord has. If he turns out to be like that 'Dark Demon King' from before, then our Witch Clan will never have a chance to rise again."

"Elder, last time you were the one who liaised with Administrator Panbi, did you have any news about this new lord?"

Several extremely old-looking elders of the Nawu tribe, standing at the very front of the group, were constantly communicating telepathically.

"No"

The bald old man, referred to as the Elder, sighed and replied, "Governor Panbi only told us that we no longer need to pay tribute to Lord Nasia, and that we should follow the arrangements of the newly arrived lord."

"Hmph, I think it's still better than following that Black Demon King. He doesn't even treat us Witch Clan like human beings!"

Another elderly man with a slightly plump face and a pale beard spoke angrily.
“Over the years, countless Nawu warriors have been recruited by him but have never been heard from again. Among them are several pillars of the clan who have broken through to the Great Sage level. If this continues, our Nawu clan will eventually lose its lineage!”

"That's right. Over the years, I haven't dared to be too responsible in teaching those students, for fear that once they grow up, they'll be targeted and 'recruited' by the Dark Lord's subordinates."

"Tragedyically, if young people don't grow up, the community has no future, but if they grow up too fast, they will face the fate of being 'conscripted'."

"Sigh, let's hope the new lord will be more merciful."

Just as a group of elders from the Nawu tribe were talking, a deep blue triangular spaceship broke through the atmosphere of Red Leaf Star and rapidly descended.

Strangely, the defensive weapons deployed around Red Leaf Star seemed to ignore the dark blue spaceship completely, showing no reaction whatsoever.

"The planetary defense system hasn't activated... Could it be that a new lord has arrived?!"

The group of elders from the Wu tribe instantly became solemn.

Under their watchful eyes, the deep blue spaceship slowly landed on the ground.

Wow~
The spaceship's hatch opened, and a black-haired youth wearing dark gold patterned armor flew out with a wild-looking purple-haired girl.
