Swallowing the Stars: I'll Destroy the Universe with My Talent Attributes

Qin Yuan specializes in the Law of Starlight. The Law of Starlight and the Law of Light have something in common, both being the application of "light," but with different focuses.

Starlight is more focused on stellar radiation, while the current light system is more focused on the fundamentals.

"Let's begin."

He walked toward the first sphere of light.

The moment his finger touched the ball of light, the surrounding scenery changed, and he appeared in a pure white space.

"The first test begins. Please create a luminous clone that is identical to your original body. Duration: ten seconds."

Qin Yuan closed his eyes and recalled the basic principles of the laws of light.

Light, in essence, is an electromagnetic wave, exhibiting wave-particle duality. To create a clone of light, one must simultaneously grasp both the wave and particle properties of light.

He stretched out his hands, and the laws of starlight began to operate. But this time, he deliberately stripped away the "star" characteristics from the starlight, retaining only the purest "light" characteristics.

Silver light gathered in his palm, gradually coalescing into a human shape.

But that's not enough. The clone needs to be "completely identical" to the original, including the simulation of aura, energy fluctuations, and even the soul imprint.

[Battle Genius (Blue)] and [Exceptional Talent (Blue)] are working with all their might to analyze every detail of their clones.

Qin Yuan adjusted the energy frequency, modified the structural combination, and added simulation algorithms...

Three minutes later, a clone that looked exactly like him stood in front of him.

Not only in appearance, but also in the spirit in their eyes, the rhythm of their breathing, and the frequency of energy flow in their bodies, they are exactly the same.

"pass."

A mechanical sound rang out, and the first sphere of light lit up.

Second test: Refraction of light.

Qin Yuan needed to make a laser beam pass through twelve prisms at different angles and finally hit the bullseye 100 meters away.

This tests the precision of optical path calculations. For a dictionary entry, this kind of calculation is child's play, solved in ten seconds.

The third test: Focusing of light.

Qin Yuan easily compressed the light energy of one square meter into the size of a pinhead, aided by the laws of space.

The fourth test: The Colors of Light. Decomposing white light is easy, but the test requires "precise control of the proportions and brightness of the seven colors".

Qin Yuan patiently adjusted and reached the target in three minutes.

Fifth test: The speed of light.

Achieving sub-light speed in a pure light environment, Qin Yuan used the Starry Sky Steps technique, combined with starlight teleportation, to easily pass the level.

Sixth test: Creation of light. Use light energy to create a "physical object".

This is a relatively difficult hurdle, involving the laws of mass-energy conversion.

After much deliberation, Qin Yuan finally came up with a solution. He first used light energy to condense the shape of an apple, and then invoked the laws of lightning to convert some of the light energy into basic atomic structures. Although the conversion rate was very low, it did create a physical substance, although it only lasted for three seconds before dissipating.

"Barely passed."

The sixth orb of light lit up.

Final test: The essence of light.

This time, there were no specific test questions.

Qin Yuan was teleported to a completely dark space, with only a soft white light floating in front of him.

"To comprehend a certain essence of the laws of light."

The mechanical voice said, "There is no time limit, but the space will shrink by one-tenth every day. If you still haven't grasped it when the space is completely closed, you will be considered a failure."

Chapter 187 Unexpected Discovery

The pressure is coming.

Qin Yuan sat down cross-legged and stared at the ball of white light.

The essence of the laws of light is multifaceted: the dialectic of light and darkness, the relationship between speed and energy, the unity of wave and particle...

But he had a vague feeling that the Light-Eyed Clan's realm lord might want to test more than just these things.

"Light..." Qin Yuan reached out his hand, wanting to touch the ball of light, but stopped in mid-air.

He suddenly remembered an old saying from Earth: seeing is believing. But in the laws of light, what the eyes see is often the most unreliable.

Light can refract, reflect, and scatter, deceiving the eye and creating illusions.

So, what is real?

Qin Yuan closed his eyes and began to "feel" the light with his other senses: his skin could feel the temperature of the light, his ears could hear the faint sound of light energy conversion, and he could even "smell" the ozone produced by the interaction of light and air.

Every sensation is a facet of light. But light itself transcends these facets.

"The nature of light..."

"Not any of its characteristics, but... information."

The thought flashed through my mind like lightning.

Light is the most fundamental carrier of information in the universe.

Starlight carries information about stars, lasers transmit encoded information, and even life sees light because light transmits information from the outside world to the brain.

"understood."

He reached out, and the ball of white light flew over automatically and disappeared into his palm.

Instantly, a massive amount of information flooded into my mind.

That was the knowledge accumulated by the Light-Eyed Clan over billions of years, everything about light: its generation, propagation, transformation, and application...

Although it was just basic knowledge, it was more precious to Qin Yuan than any treasure.

His Starlight Method seems to have completed the most basic link, extending from "the light of stars" to "the light of all things".

The seventh orb of light lit up.

The enormous portal slowly opened, revealing the passage behind it.

Qin Yuan took a deep breath and stepped inside.

Behind the door was a long corridor, with murals of the Light-Eyed Clan carved on both sides of the walls:

From its birth in a mysterious realm of light, to the establishment of a glorious civilization, to the war with a shadow race, and finally the migration of the entire race, where the realm lord passed away...

"Shadow Race..."

Qin Yuan noted this information down. It seems the demise of the Light-Eyed Clan was related to this race.

At the end of the corridor is a circular tomb chamber.

In the center of the tomb chamber, a crystal coffin floats.

Inside the coffin lay a serene elder of the Light-Eyed Clan, his eyes closed, a vertical pupil marking on his forehead, his hands crossed over his chest, holding a book condensed with light.

Around the tomb chamber, there were twelve orbs of light, each containing a sealed treasure.

Qin Yuan did not rush to touch the treasures. Instead, he walked to the crystal coffin and bowed respectfully: "I have come to seek the inheritance of the Star God King, senior, to disturb your peaceful rest."

This is a basic respect for the strong, even those who have passed away.

As he straightened up, the books inside the crystal coffin flew out automatically and hovered in front of him.

The book cover bears five characters of light: "Seven Realms of Illusory Light".

Qin Yuan took the book and turned to the first page.

In an instant, a vast amount of information flooded into my mind.

This is a complete secret technique based on light, divided into seven levels. Each level mastered elevates one's control over light to a higher level.

Upon reaching the seventh level of mastery, one can transform into light, formless and intangible, yet omnipresent.

"nice one."

Qin Yuan carefully put away the book. Although he did not major in the basic laws of light, the knowledge gained from it was of great benefit to his understanding of the laws of starlight.

Next came the surrounding treasures. Qin Yuan examined them one by one:

The first orb of light: a set of Tier 3 Force Armor "Light Feather Armor", as light as a feather, with considerable defensive power, and comes with a light-based stealth effect.

The second orb of light: a fourth-order psychic weapon called "Thousand Light Needles," composed of nine hundred and ninety-nine light needles, capable of both offense and defense.

The third orb of light: a bottle of "Light Essence Liquid", containing twelve drops, each drop of which can enhance one's understanding of the laws of light.

The fourth sphere: a "Light-Eyed Clan Heritage Crystal," which records the complete history and technology of the Light-Eyed Clan.

The fifth to eleventh light spheres: various light-based materials and energy crystals;

The twelfth orb of light: a palm-sized metal fragment.

This is the third fragment of the Star God King's treasure vault map! Including the fragment Qin Yuan himself already had, he has now collected four fragments.

Qin Yuan stored all the treasures in the World Ring.

When he took the map fragment from the twelfth orb of light, the entire tomb began to shake.

The crystal coffin slowly sank into the ground, and the dome of light above the tomb began to shrink. A mechanical voice announced: "The inheritance has been retrieved. The tomb will close in three minutes. Please leave immediately."

Qin Yuan immediately turned and left.

As he burst out of the tomb, the Trial Corridor behind him began to collapse, and the Labyrinth of Light also crumbled.

One minute later, Qin Yuan burst out of the spatial rift and returned to the outside void.

Looking back, the spatial folds had disappeared, and the "back door" to the Illusionary Realm was permanently closed.

"A very fruitful experience."

Qin Yuanqing counted his haul, a smile appearing on his lips.

Not only did they obtain the fourth map fragment, but they also acquired the Light Pupil Clan's inheritance, the "Seven Realms of Illusionary Light" secret technique, and a batch of light-elemental treasures.

These are of immeasurable value to him in perfecting his own system of laws.

Now that all four map fragments have been collected, we can begin to pinpoint the location of the Star God King's Treasury.
