Devouring the Stars: The Master of Metaphysics

Dang, Dang, Dang...!

In the martial arts training ground, the sound of metal collisions continued one after another, and sparks flew.

The weapons used by the two are relatively unorthodox among the human race - claws!

The claws of these two people were sharp, and the afterimages of claw marks appeared and disappeared. The gray figure firmly suppressed the white figure, and clawed at the opponent's throat, eyes and other vital parts. The opponent could only parry in a panic, without the ability to fight back.

There are two figures, one gray and one white. The white figure is the manor’s guard leader, the white-maned werewolf Mu Li!

And that gray figure, no need to guess, is the immortal god of the feudal lord invited by Li Qi, the Bone Casting Marquis - Bei Kuku!

"Your Highness is here!"

Seeing Li Qi's arrival, the white-maned werewolf Miao Li, who was at a disadvantage and might be defeated at any time, quickly sent a message to Marquis Guzhu and at the same time retreated.

Boom!

Amidst the roar of thunder and lightning, Miao Li flashed to Li Qi's side, bowed slightly and said: "Your Highness!"

"You brat!" The gray figure, Bone Zhuhou, said via voice message: "If you can't beat me, just run away."

Miao Li, who was standing next to Li Qi, grinned and said, "I'm not running away. Your Highness is here. I want to protect His Highness's safety."

"What danger is there in this virtual universe?" Gu Zhuhou was a little dumbfounded, and then he flashed and quickly moved to the center of the martial arts training ground.

"Um?"

Li Qi looked at the Bone Cast Marquis. He was a gray-maned werewolf wearing a gray battle suit, but his appearance was a bit old and his mane was a bit white, but he did not have the aura of old age and decay.

"Sir!" Li Qi bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for accepting the invitation and willing to teach me how to practice."

"Your Highness, you're welcome." Marquis Guzhu said in a slightly older voice, while thinking to himself, "His Royal Highness Li Qi is quite polite, but I don't know what his temper is. I hope he is not a surly person."

Arranged to teach Li Qi, Marquis Guzhu felt a little resentful in his heart. He wouldn't have bothered to accept the invitation if the elders of the clan hadn't asked him to come by name.

At first, he was a little confused as to why the elder asked him to teach Li Qi by name. It was not until he came to the manor that he learned that Li Qi had been accepted as a disciple by the Venerable Universe of the same level as the elder.

Li Qi asked respectfully: "Sir, do you have any suggestions for my cultivation?"

"Suggestion..." Marquis Guzhu thought for a moment, and then asked: "His Highness should still be in Chaos City now, right?"

"Yes." Li Qi nodded.

"Chaos City is my human race's holy land for cultivation, and it is an excellent place to comprehend the laws." Bone Zhu Hou replied: "I suggest that your highness focus on comprehending the laws while you are in Chaos City. Claw skills and amplitude can be practiced after leaving Chaos City."

He spoke more tactfully, "I have seen the video of His Highness breaking through the sky bridge. Your Highness's body skills are still lacking some strength. You should deepen your understanding of the laws of space. At the same time, you can also practice the secret method of body skills to assist in understanding the laws of space."

Li Qi first thanked him, and then asked: "Sir, can you recommend a suitable body technique for me?"

"Hmm..." Gu Zhuhou murmured softly, and then replied: "The space law movement method that is more common and can also be applied to the spiritual mind master's space law type movement method is definitely the "Ten Thousand Lines Flow"."

"If His Highness is considering supplementing the close range movement, then "Instant Shadow Phantom" is a good choice, and it can also be used in conjunction with the claw skills you will practice in the future."

Hearing this, Li Qi thought about it and said, "According to Marquis Listening Bones, "Instant Shadow Phantom Body" is a movement technique that focuses on close combat. This is somewhat consistent with my future cultivation path."

The reason why he believed that "Instant Shadow Apparition" was only somewhat suitable was because he could not guarantee that he could give birth to a clone of the ancient tree of Chaoyu.

If a clone of the ancient tree of Chao Yu is born, he will definitely become a warrior in the future. The one who is most in line with the way of the beast god is a warrior after all.

Don't look at Luo Feng in the original work. He keeps saying that he is a spiritual martial artist, but in fact, in the later period, he turned into a martial artist with a very honest body and slashed monsters with a sword!

Li Qi nodded in thanks, "Thank you sir for your advice."

"Your Highness is welcome."

"Do you know Mr. Mu Li, sir?" Li Qi asked.

"I know you." Marquis Guzhu smiled, turned to look at Mu Li and said, "This kid has learned claw skills from me for a few days."

Hearing this, Li Qi looked at the white-maned werewolf Muli next to him, who grinned and nodded.

Seeing this, the doubts in his heart were cleared. He had seen the two of them fighting in the martial arts training ground before, and felt that their claw skills were somewhat similar. He didn't expect that they were actually from the same school.

"The main reason I came to the virtual universe this time was to meet you, sir." Li Qi said with a smile, "Since you are accompanied by Mr. Mu Li, who I know well, I can rest assured that I can return to Chaos City to practice."

After saying that, he turned around, took two steps, and disappeared into a white light.

…

The residence of Chaos City.

After returning to reality, Li Qi thought, "Now it's time to exchange for the secret method. I have the secret method "Ten Thousand Lines of Flow", so there is no need to exchange it for the time being."

"The first volume of the secret method "Time and Space Essay" recommended by the Seventh Brother and the first two volumes of "The True Interpretation of the Sacred Tree" need to be exchanged. In addition, the "Instant Shadow Phantom" recommended by the Bone Casting Marquis must be exchanged."

Li Qi opened the exchange interface, and a light curtain appeared.

He gave an order in his mind, "Search "Essays on Time and Space."

"Okay, Master!" Xiao Xi's sweet voice sounded in his mind, and at the same time, the light screen jumped to the introduction page of the secret method "Time and Space Essay".

"Time and Space Essay" Volume 1 1,000 points

10,000 points for the first two volumes of "Time and Space Essay"

100,000 points for the first three volumes of "Time and Space Essays"

…

1 billion points for the first seven volumes of "Time and Space Essays"

10 billion points for the first eight volumes of "Time and Space Essays"

"Time and Space Essay" complete set 100 billion points

And this "Time and Space Essay" does not come with a discount!

"The exchange price of "Time and Space Essay" is really expensive." Li Qi thought: "However, this "Time and Space Essay" is a secret method created by the founder of "Nine Yues Chaos Monument", and it is the most suitable for "Nine Yus Chaos Monument" The secret method is also the secret method that Luo Feng majored in in the original work."

"Since the Seventh Senior Brother recommended this secret method to me, then this secret method must have merit."

With this in mind, he redeemed the first volume of "Essays on Time and Space".

Then, he searched for "The True Explanation of the Sacred Tree".

The complete set of "True Explanation of the Divine Tree" is worth 30 million points. It is a secret method created by the Venerable Divine Tree, with a total of eight volumes.

Among them, the original law of wood explained in the first volume corresponds to Figures 1-2, the second, third, fourth, and fifth volumes explain the original law of space corresponding to Figures 3-6, and the last three volumes explain the law of fusion of wood and space corresponding to Figures 7-9 picture.

"The True Explanation of the Sacred Tree" can also be redeemed separately. The first volume is 3,000 points, the second volume is 30,000 points, the third volume is 100,000 points, the fourth volume is 300,000 points, and the fifth volume is 1 million points. , the sixth volume is 3 million, the seventh volume is 10 million, and the eighth volume is 30 million.

"The total price of "The True Explanation of the Divine Tree" is 30 million points. This price is not low, and like "Time and Space Essay", it cannot be discounted!"

Li Qi speculated in his mind, "Can't the secret methods created by the founder of the Chaos Monument and corresponding to the Chaos Monument's explanation not be discounted?"

"The first volume of "The True Explanation of the Sacred Tree" is worth 3,000 points, which is more expensive than the secret method "Blood" which explains the first three pictures of "Nine Yus Chaos Monument"."

He then thought about it, "The first volume of "The True Interpretation of the Divine Tree" and the first two volumes of "The Chaos Monument of the Divine Tree" can be said to have thoroughly explained the laws of the origin of wood, and there is nothing wrong with it being worth 3,000 points." After Chaos was exchanged for the first and second volumes, Li Qi's account was instantly reduced by 33,000 points. If he hadn't entered the original secret realm and received 100,000 points for free, he would have been in a points shortage now!

"In the end, there is only the secret method of "Instant Shadow Apparition" left." He whispered softly, and at the same time gave an order to Xiao Xi to search for this secret method.

The screen jumps, and the introduction page of "Phantom" appears on the light screen.

"Episode" is worth 3,500 points (30% off on the original secret realm, 20% off on the primordial secret realm, 10% off on the secret realm of heaven and earth, and full price on the apocalyptic secret realm)

"There is a discount for 3,500 points, which is not bad."

Spending 2,450 points, Li Qi pocketed the 30% discounted version of "Episode", and then his consciousness entered the virtual universe, ready to receive the redeemed secret book.

In order to protect the secrets from leaking out, most of the secrets redeemed by the five giants of the human race will only be delivered to the redeemer's virtual universe version, which means that when the secrets exist in books, they will only appear in the virtual universe.

…

Virtual Universe, Original Area No. 115.

In the study, Li Qi had four metal boxes in front of him. What was contained in these four metal boxes was the secret method he exchanged.

When he looked at the box containing the first volume of "Essays on Time and Space", the four simple words in the universal language on the cover seemed to encompass the starry sky and the universe. In a trance, he seemed to see the explosion of stars, the evolution of stars and other scenes.

After waking up instantly, Li Qi sighed, "The Essay on Time and Space is indeed extraordinary!"

He opened the metal pages. This first volume was 40 centimeters thick, but had thousands of pages. Although it was metal pages, they were very thin and flexible.

"The "Time and Space Essay" has a total of nine volumes, written at random, and contains a total of 10,829 secret methods. If you can find all 10,829 secret methods from these nine volumes, at least you will definitely become the king of the universe, haha..."

The first page contained simple words, but what was strange was that a loud and unrestrained voice seemed to ring in Li Qi's ears.

He was a little doubtful and asked: "Is this the artistic conception in the secret method?"

Skeptical, he turned to the second page.

There were some simple strokes on the pages of the Second Metal book, but to him, these strokes looked like a set of powerful sword techniques.

This was what he felt at first glance, but when he looked at it again, the feeling of swordsmanship disappeared, and only the simple strokes were still on the second page.

"I don't have the feeling I had the first time." Li Qi whispered to himself, "Is it because my understanding of the laws of space is too weak?"

He turned to the third page. What was drawn on this page was just a fallen leaf. There were only a few veins on the fallen leaf, which seemed to be a set of secret techniques for attacking telepathic weapons.

"Still not working..."

Li Qi saw some clues on this page, but it was still not enough for him to realize the secret method on this page.

Snap!

The metal book "Essays on Space and Time" was closed, and Li Qi sighed softly: "My understanding of the laws of space is too weak. Besides, what I have understood is not the "Nine Yues Chaos Monument". Otherwise, I should be able to understand the secret method on the third page."

"Two minutes ago?"

Li Qi let out a light sigh, and a light screen appeared in front of him, showing an email from Virtual Universe Company.

"So, I only spent two minutes reading three pages of "Essays on Time and Space"." He was a little surprised and didn't notice that time passed so quickly.

"This email is..." He opened the email, "Dear Original Secret Realm member Li Qi Royce, the treasure you exchanged has been delivered to your residence in Chaos City."

"Treasure?" He muttered softly, and then said with some joy: "Could it be that the resources of the clone of the ancient tree of Chaoyu have arrived?"

Uh-huh!

A flash of white light, Li Qi disappeared in the room.

…

Reality, Chaos City Residence.

Li Qi came to the door of the residence and saw a metal box in front of the door.

He took the metal box back to the quiet room with mental power. He followed the instructions in the email, put his palm on the metal box, and injected a small amount of genetic energy and mental power.

"Verification passed!"

The voice fell, and a "click" sounded, and the metal box opened.

The first thing that came into his eyes was a piece of Demon Killer skin with an area of ​​more than one square meter. Under the Demon Killer skin was a world ring.

Excitedly taking the world ring in his hand, Li Qi dripped blood to recognize the master, and the Demon Killer skin and the metal box were thrown aside.

He invested mental power into the world ring and found that this world ring was the smallest one, with a world of 10,000 kilometers in length, width and height.

In the center of the world, there was a leaf that was more than two meters long, nearly one meter wide, and more than 20 centimeters thick. This leaf was preserved by special means and was still active.

In addition to the leaf, there are some resources for plant life, such as a pile of Lan Ke fruits.

Using his mind to take the leaf that was more than two meters long out of the world ring, Li Qi opened the inbox and found the email sent by his teacher, the Lord of Ice Peak. He carefully compared the leaf on the email with the leaf he just received to see if it was the same.

After carefully comparing and confirming that it was correct, Li Qi exhaled lightly and said to himself: "I hope I can breed a clone of the Gu Yu Ancient Tree."

This Gu Yu Ancient Tree leaf came from the Realm Master-level Gu Yu Ancient Tree. There was a tough film on the surface of the leaf that protected the leaf from damage. He tried to poke it with his hand, but failed to pierce the film.

"It's quite tough..."

Li Qi's mind moved, and the green vine column appeared in the air. A green stream of light flew out from it and pierced the leaf of the Gu Yu Ancient Tree.

Puff!

A hole was pierced in the leaf of the Gu Yu Ancient Tree. Because of his excellent control, the green wood thorn did not pierce the leaf.

"The next step is the blood sacrifice."

He silently chanted in his heart, and a fiery red fragment of the fifth-level telekinetic weapon flew out, cutting Li Qi's left wrist that was not covered by the battle suit, and blood dripped down from his wrist.

Tick-tick...

Drops of blood dripped, and under the control of his mental power, they fell accurately into the hole in the leaves of the Guyu ancient tree.

"Not enough..."

Looking at the buds wriggling and the wound that was almost healed, Li Qi once again controlled the incomplete fifth-level telekinetic weapon to cut his left wrist.

Tick-tick...

The sound of blood dripping sounded again, still falling on the leaves of the Guyu ancient tree.

Then, he cut his wrist several times in a row, and the blood from the wound almost flowed out of most of the leaves before he let the wound heal.

After losing so much blood, his face was only slightly pale. For him who was already at the cosmic level, a little blood loss was nothing.

"Success or failure depends on this one move!" Li Qi took a deep breath and then used his secret method - clone!

Bad news, I'm working on the outline of the next volume recently, and I can't pay back the debt for the time being...

Also, the manuscripts I saved are gone...
