Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 15 Trial, Battle!

In the dark universe.

A streamlined, silver-white spaceship is traveling at a speed several times faster than the speed of light.

Before leaving, Lu Qingshan's father-in-law Kevin not only refused to accept the cosmic coins Lu Qingshan returned to him, but also gifted Lu Qingshan a D-class spaceship of the Mechanical Race.

The mechanical race's technology far surpasses that of human spaceships of the same level. A typical D-class spaceship is comparable in value to a D9-class human spaceship and is enough to exchange for hundreds of inhabited planets.

This gift is truly weighty.

Considering the long journey to the headquarters of the Qianwu Dojo, Lu Qingshan did not refuse the high-level spaceship, as it would save a lot of time.

However, he kept this kindness in his heart, and even if his father-in-law did not ask for anything in return, he would definitely pass on this kindness to his brother-in-law Kaili in the future.

"Nasus, how much longer until we reach the Rainbow Star?" Lu Qingshan looked at the black dog head image displayed on the main control screen.

"Master, at the current speed, we are expected to arrive at the Illusionary Star in 26 hours."

"Keep going." Lu Qingshan closed his eyes.

The journey to the headquarters of the Qianwu Dojo was long, and he planned to train his disciple Leiming along the way, with Huancai Star as the first stop.

Lei Ming, who had already received the news, gripped the Thunderclap Battle Blade tightly, his eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit.

Time flowed silently through the dark universe. The spaceship began to decelerate, and when its speed dropped below the speed of light, the view outside the porthole suddenly became bright.

"Nasus, activate the outdoor simulation."

The home screen switches instantly.

Directly ahead, a dreamlike planet comes into view.

This is the Rainbow Star.

Cyan, blue, purple, red... countless dazzling streams of light, like flowing ribbons, intertwined and wrapped the entire planet in a giant rainbow robe, breathtakingly beautiful.

“The Illusionary Star…” Lu Qingshan murmured to himself. It was such a pity that such a beautiful planet had been occupied by a demon.

The spaceship penetrated the atmosphere without hindrance; the planet's weak air defense system offered no resistance and could only emit sharp, piercing alarms.

This is still because it wasn't hidden. If Lu Qingshan had intended to hide, this D-class mechanical race spaceship would have been able to infiltrate silently.

Upon entering the planet, Lu Qingshan's immense spiritual power, like an invisible tide, instantly covered the entire planet.

After a moment, he spoke: "The intelligence is correct. There is one eighth-level stellar warrior, one sixth-level stellar mentalist, one third-level stellar warrior, and the rest are planetary level, numbering in the hundreds."

“Teacher, leave it to me!” Lei Ming’s gaze was firm.

"Go." The cabin door slid open, and Lu Qingshan watched his disciple leave.

Having digested the remaining life force within his body, Lei Ming's strength stabilized at the sixth level of the Stellar Realm, and he even touched the threshold of the Domain Realm.

With his strength, he wasn't without a chance against an eighth-tier Stellar Realm warrior. However, his opponent also had Stellar Realm allies, especially that mentalist, who was capable of changing the course of the battle.

And this is exactly what Lu Qingshan wanted.

What's the difference between training in a killing field and not facing the pressure of life and death?
Although he said he wouldn't interfere, his figure had already quietly merged into the void, locking onto the battlefield from afar.

Lei Ming is his cash cow; if it really comes down to life or death, he will not hesitate to save him.

……

Fantasy Star, Central Manor.

The manor was luxurious and sprawling. A man dressed in black robes with three eyes was embracing two trembling women from the Caibei tribe, lewdly harassing them. The women endured the humiliation, daring not to resist in the slightest.

The piercing air raid siren suddenly blared, ripping apart the decadent music of the manor.

A figure flew over quickly, his face grave: "Modi, someone has forced their way in!"

"What?" Modi abruptly pushed the woman away from him, his face turning ashen. "Illusory Star is territory we legally purchased. Who dares to trespass? Aren't they afraid of being wanted by the Empire?"

This is the first time the three of them have encountered an invasion since they discovered and bought this native planet.

"Who cares who they are!" A ruthless glint flashed in Li Ying's eyes. "Intruders, kill without mercy! They must not leave alive!"

"Hmph!" Modi sneered, the crimson battle blade in his hand humming.

The two of them instantly took to the air.

Just as they reached high altitude, a powerful surge of primal force erupted from thousands of miles away.

"Oh no, it's the third brother's side!" The two men's expressions changed drastically, and they transformed into streaks of light and sped away.

However, they were ultimately too late.

When the two arrived, they saw only the headless corpse of a third-tier Stellar Warrior lying on the ground. The grotesque head rolled to the side, its eyes wide open, its death unfulfilled. Not far away, a one-horned youth wielding a battle sword coldly watched them, the blood dripping from the tip of the blade appearing particularly glaring in the rainbow light.

"Sixth-order stellar?"

"How dare you kill my brother!"

"Boy, who are you? Why did you force your way onto Illusionary Star and commit such a heinous act?"

"No matter who you are, you are going to die today!"

The appearance of Lei Ming alerted Modi and Li Ying. They were not afraid of a sixth-order star, but the fact that the opponent could break in directly meant that the spaceship he was traveling in was at least C2 level.

Li Ying's mental power instantly expanded, covering a radius of thousands of miles, carefully exploring every inch of space.

"There is no one else!" Li Ying's voice entered Modi's mind directly through telekinesis.

"Just him? A mere sixth-order stellar being, how dare he!" Modi was furious.

Lei Ming snorted coldly: "Don't bother looking. I'm all alone here. If you can't kill me, you'll be the ones who die!"

Before the words were finished, Lei Ming's figure suddenly shot up, the ground beneath his feet shattered, and his entire body transformed into a bolt of lightning that tore through the air, his Thunderclap Blade aimed straight at the mentalist Li Ying.

"Third-tier Force weapon, Shadow, be careful!" Modi warned sharply.

"Hmph, let me test his strength!" Li Ying remained calm and retreated rapidly. At the same time, thirty-five blood-red throwing knives, as thin as cicada wings with edges gleaming with a cold blue light, appeared out of thin air and shot towards Lei Ming with a sharp whistling sound!
Each throwing knife contains immense power, enough to pierce through ordinary star-level defenses.

"Thunderclap Nine Blades, Third Form!" Lei Ming roared, his Thunderclap Blade bursting with dazzling lightning, and a highly refined azure blade beam swept out.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!

The loud explosions came one after another.

Sparks flew as all twenty-five throwing knives were deflected by this fierce strike.

However, under the powerful psychic pull of Li Ying, the throwing knives instantly reassembled in mid-air, the thirty-five knives merging into one, transforming into a giant sword a hundred meters long, which slashed fiercely down at Lei Ming.

"clang!"

Lei Ming parried with his sword, and a tremendous force came from the blood-red greatsword. He couldn't help but groan, and the air beneath his feet made a sonic boom.

"That's all, go to hell!"

Modi's sinister laughter rang out behind him.

The bloody blade light, like a blood python ready to devour its prey, slashed fiercely towards Lei Ming's back.

"boom!"

Lei Ming had no way to avoid it and was struck squarely in the back by this fierce blade. Fortunately, his Force Armor blocked the blow, and he only spat out a mouthful of blood, but was still sent flying by the enormous force.

However, the accident happened again.

While flying backward, Lei Ming's body strangely twisted in mid-air, using the impact of Modi's slash to increase his speed instead of decreasing, and he headed towards Li Ying again.

Thunderclap Nine Blades, Fourth Form.

Lei Ming roared.

The Thunderclap Blade emitted a piercing hissing sound, and the violent lightning instantly compressed and condensed. At the same time, a purple halo suddenly appeared within three meters of Lei Ming's body.

"what is this?"

Before he could react, the purple halo passed through Li Ying's mental barrier without any obstruction, and in Li Ying's horrified and desperate gaze, it slashed fiercely across his neck.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered into the sky, and a head flew high into the air.

The giant sword composed of twenty-five throwing knives lost its psychic support and instantly disintegrated, clattering and scattering all over the ground.

"Shadow of Wrath!"

Modi's eyes widened in disbelief. He had thought his sneak attack had succeeded, but it turned out to have harmed Li Ying instead.

The three brothers once dominated the region, but in the blink of an eye, two of them were killed, leaving only him.

"You little bastard! I'll tear you to pieces!"

Modi has gone completely mad.

His third vertical eye on his forehead suddenly opened.
