Swallowing the Stars: Become Stronger by Taking on Disciples

Chapter 2 Chaos City Fans Away the Flame Blade King

In the chaotic sky of the primordial universe, crystalline threads sometimes receded into starlight, and sometimes accelerated to converge into a net... The details of time evolution, which were difficult for ordinary people to observe, were crystal clear in Gao Ya's mind.

After sitting in meditation on the rooftop for forty years, Gao Ya's previously clouded eyes suddenly became as clear as a mirror.

The energy flowing around him suddenly resembled a galaxy frozen by millennia-old ice.

Click!

The originally smooth band of light suddenly solidified into ice crystal-like veins, then exploded violently the next second, flowing so fast that it left a double image, then slowed down as if even the vibration of particles had stopped... Each transition between fast and slow was accompanied by a sluggish feeling of time and space being displaced.

"Whoosh—" With a thought, his energy returned to normal in the blink of an eye.

"I've completely grasped the essence of time in the first 9, the middle 27, and the first 20 of the last 72," Gao Ya thought to himself with a smug satisfaction.

His increased comprehension allowed him to grasp the laws of nature at a significantly higher level.

In addition to his previous superficial understanding of the laws of time, he has now fully grasped them, and his speed in analyzing the essence of time can be described as advancing by leaps and bounds.

Subsequently, Gao Ya sent an email to his 5000 disciples in a group chat to announce the start of the course, gathering them in the mansion square.

"Greetings, teacher!" The crowd's voices resounded.

"Please sit down, let's begin the lesson."

"The Law of Lightning: Speed ​​in its swiftness, dominance in its power..."

Gao Ya raised one hand, a wisp of pale purple lightning condensing at his fingertips. In mid-air, it outlined a series of "flowing patterns" that flickered with endless lightning and were full of destructive aura, transforming the intangible laws into the tangible, displaying them to them from shallow to deep.

"Haha, I get it, I get it!" Matt seemed to grasp a fleeting moment in the diagram and fell into deep thought.

"I see..." Buck's pupils reflected the flowing trajectory of the lightning patterns in the diagram, and tiny purple-gold lightning flashed in his eyes, as if countless miniature lightning beads were dancing in them.

The long-dormant understanding of the principles is now showing signs of loosening.

"It feels like, it seems like..." The mysteries within the diagrams seemed to be playing a joke on the disciples; they were so close, yet they just couldn't grasp them.

Gao Ya glanced indifferently at the disciples below, noticing that some were expressionless, while others had their eyes closed in concentration but their brows were furrowed. His gaze remained completely unmoved.

The path of cultivation is as difficult as ascending to heaven; different aptitudes inevitably lead to different levels of achievement.

Of the thousand participants in previous genius battles, probably fewer than ten achieved immortality. The odds are even lower in the outside world, perhaps one in ten thousand, or even one in a million.

Those who can defy fate are extremely rare; most disappear from the universe like dust at the end of their lives, leaving not a trace.

Although he had signed master-disciple contracts with these people, how much of the law he could comprehend depended on their fate.

one year later

"That concludes my first sermon. You may all leave now. The next sermon will be announced later."

Five thousand disciples respectfully bowed to "Teacher Xie".

Gao Ya nodded slightly, glanced at the emails in the virtual universe, and went to the public area restaurant, the second floor of the Purple Fire Tower.

"Xingyu, over here," said Icebreaker King, the Lone Ranger of the Universe, waving to him from his window seat.

"Fire Eye, Heavy Hammer, you're here too," Gao Ya said, sitting next to Icebreaker King, addressing the two opposite him.

"Haha, you've made 500 million Hunyuan in one go! We're here to rob the rich!"

"Alright, bring me a pot of Benyuan wine," Gao Ya said to the waiter.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

"Amazing!" Hammer King, a man with muscles all over his body and a body as big as a boulder, had his eyes shining.

The Primal Wine can enhance a cultivator's clarity of laws, and is worth 3 million Chaos Yuan!

He usually doesn't want to spend a little money.

Gao Ya smiled and asked, "Weren't the three of you in seclusion? Why did you suddenly come out?"

The Icebreaker King revealed a solemn expression and said in a deep voice, "Haven't you heard? The Flame Blade King led a group of people to the City Lord's Mansion to request that the City Lord expel you from Chaos City."

"Sir, your wine," the waiter said, bringing over the original wine.

"Okay, thank you."

Gao Ya, carrying the wine jug, filled the three of their glasses while asking, "And the result?"

"There's still no result, so the three of us came here to advise you to back down. It's not a shameful thing."

"Xingyu, Pobing is right. Yan Daowang is the second strongest in the Virtual Universe Company after Fengwang Wudi. He is very likely to break through to Fengwang Wudi and is highly valued by the Virtual Universe Company. Don't confront him head-on."

Gao Ya: "The Lord of Chaos City is renowned in Chaos City for his strength and fairness. I haven't violated any of Chaos City's rules, so why would he do anything to me because of a Flame Blade King?"

With bloodshot eyes and hair like flames, the Fiery-Eyed King shook his head: "Hard to say..."

Just then, a noise coming from the stairwell interrupted him.

"Gao Ya!"

The burly Flame Blade King, with his massive frame and thick, dark brown bear fur covering his shoulders and back, strode up with such force that it seemed he could shake the floorboards.

Behind him followed eight immortal kings.

"Origin Wine? Someone like you isn't qualified to drink it!" Flame Blade King was like a gunpowder-fueled rager; everything Gao Ya did was wrong in his eyes, and he'd spew insults at the slightest provocation.

Gao Ya glanced at him, calmly picked up his wine glass, and said to the three of them, "Come on, let's have a drink."

Icebreaker King nervously gave Gao Ya several meaningful glances, signaling him not to act recklessly. Fire Eye and Heavy Hammer shrank back, not even daring to touch their wine glasses.

The other customers on the second floor watched this scene with great interest, occasionally whispering and chuckling, their eyes full of amused amusement.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Flame Blade King, who had been ignored, was enraged and his bear-like eyes flashed with ferocity!

boom--

An invisible pressure, like a towering mountain, crashed down on Gao Ya's body.

"Flame Blade King, you think I'm being too kind to you?!" Gao Ya suddenly turned his head, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and his right hand lashed out like lightning!

"Snapped!"

The sharp crack sent ringing through the entire arena. The Flame Blade King, frail and weak, was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the wall at the stairwell entrance, his teeth and blood splattering everywhere.

The laughter of the onlookers abruptly ceased. Food and drink they were about to swallow choked them, their eyes wide with shock as they froze in their seats. A deathly silence fell over the entire room.

"Within Chaos City, you...you dare to lay a hand on me!" The Flame Blade King's henchman, the Light King, reacted.

Gao Ya slowly stood up, and the King of Light and the others subconsciously took a few steps back.

"Rumble~~~"

Suddenly, a furious snort filled the entire primordial chaotic universe. In an instant, the whole world darkened, the spatial cracks in the sky that had been breaking and mending at different times, and the ever-flowing laws of the universe abruptly stopped. Even the chaotic air currents ceased to move.

An irresistible suppressive force rendered Gao Ya immobile, unable even to mobilize the immortal divine power within him. His life or death hung in the balance, entirely at the mercy of this unknown power.

"Lord, please understand! It was Flame Blade King who provoked me first; I acted in self-defense!" Gao Ya shouted.

"Fighting is forbidden within Chaos City. You have violated the rules and are hereby confined to your residence for 1000 years; Li Xiu, you are hereby confined to your residence for 1 years!"

"Any repeat offender will be expelled from Chaos City and imprisoned in the Eighteen Star Domains Prison."

"Third and Fourth Enforcement Teams, escort Gao Ya and Li Xiu back to the mansion," a deep voice, faintly carrying a metallic quality, echoed throughout the entire primordial universe.

"yes!"

A loud response rang out in the sky above Chaos City.

Ten streaks of blood-red light flew to the second floor of the Purple Fire Tower, and three teams took the Flame Blade King away.

"Sir, please come with us," said the captain of the fourth enforcement team. Like the third enforcement team, he did not use any coercive measures.

"Hmm," Gao Ya turned back to say goodbye to his three friends and left with the enforcement team.

As the Flame Blade King passed by him, his pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints, and his previously angry glare was instantly filled with fear.
