Stellar Transformation-Chapter 446: Episode 14 - 19 Her Name is ’Zuo Qiumei

Chapter 446: Episode 14 Chapter 19 Her Name is ’Zuo Qiumei

In Qin Yu’s boundless mind, the Meteor Tear radiated endless green light that was so dazzling, covering everything within. Colorful radiance was emanating from the Meteor Tear and entering Qin Yu’s Soul Golden Core.

As the colorful radiance entered Qin Yu’s Soul Golden Core, the Meteor Tear actually started to shrink at an imperceptible speed!

While Qin Yu’s Soul Golden Core was absorbing the colorful radiance, Qin Yu’s consciousness fell into a special scene.

Boundless, limitless seas.

At that moment, Qin Yu felt as though he had become a droplet of water, connected to the boundless sea, experiencing its vast calmness, feeling its fury when it raised giant waves, sensing the ocean’s endless depths.

He didn’t know how much time passed, until Qin Yu even began to believe he truly was a drop of water.

Suddenly, the ocean vanished.

Qin Yu entered the time of a plant, surrounded by various flowers and grasses of numerous species. There were so many that Qin Yu could not name them, and he was just an ordinary blade of grass among them.

Growing, withering, then sprouting with vitality once more, continuing to grow, withering again...

Reincarnation, one cycle after another.

During the cycles of reincarnation, Qin Yu suddenly felt the surrounding scenery shift once again, all was void. This was space! Qin Yu could see distant celestial bodies, the scorching sun, desolate planets.

Celestial bodies eternally suspended in space, as if they would never change. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

...

At times, Qin Yu became one of the countless weapons, at times a grain of dust in the air, at times he stepped into the endless void, at times he entered the boundless sea of fire...

Through layers of profound experiences, Qin Yu didn’t know how much time had passed.

It seemed like countless years went by, until a voice sounded.

"Child, this is what I left behind before my death, and within it, you will find my insights about cosmic space. Take as much as you can comprehend from it. I, Zuo Qiumei, have never taken a disciple in my life, yet you can be considered my disciple now. However, you must remember, until you have fully understood everything I have imparted to you, do not speak my name to others. My disciple, I hope you live a life lighter and happier than mine..."

That deep and tender voice seemed to hypnotize Qin Yu’s consciousness.

"Mother."

In a haze, Qin Yu thought he heard his mother’s voice, that tranquility made him very comfortable. He wished that voice would never stop, but it faded away after only a moment.

When the voice disappeared, Qin Yu’s conscious mind quickly regained clarity.

"Is this Meteor Tear what ’Zuo Qiumei’ passed on to me?" Qin Yu somewhat understood, "According to what Zuo Qiumei said, she seems to have already died."

For some reason, knowing that ’Zuo Qiumei’ was already dead, Qin Yu felt a pang of pain in his heart.

The last words of Zuo Qiumei, Qin Yu still remembered them clearly. He simply couldn’t understand, who could bring themselves to kill someone with such a soul-soothing voice?

"Insights into cosmic space, huh?"

Qin Yu distinctly felt something within his soul, something that seemed akin to the universe’s primordial essence—those were the remnants left to him by the woman named ’Zuo Qiumei’.

"Let the body naturally cultivate according to the ’Nine-Transformation Dark Gold Body’ and the Golden Punishment Sect Technique." Qin Yu’s consciousness delved into the dazzling seven-colored radiance within his soul.

In Qin Yu’s mind, the Meteor Tear no longer emitted seven-colored light. The size of the Meteor Tear had shrunk substantially since before. Despite experiencing so many scenes, which seemed to stretch over a long period, it was actually only a few days in reality.

At this moment, the now smaller Meteor Tear was once again merging with Qin Yu’s Soul Golden Core.

Meanwhile, Qin Yu’s consciousness was immersed in the deep seven-colored brilliance of his soul, comprehending the insights left by ’Zuo Qiumei’.

This was the most precious thing Zuo Qiumei had left Qin Yu through the ’Meteor Tear,’ and he did not know how long it would take to comprehend these lessons... And so, Qin Yu’s consciousness entered the deepest level of contemplative cultivation.

Qin Yu sat cross-legged on a Dark Star, with twenty-seven thousand inscriptions blending into the depths of his muscles and bones, constantly absorbing Primordial Spirit Qi to temper his body. As for the Golden Punishment Sect Technique, it too was in constant operation, drawing in endless Gold Attribute Energy into his body.

...

Time passed, and Qin Yu, deeply engrossed in his cultivation, had no idea how much time had elapsed.

******

In the Jiang Lan Realm.

On a snowy peak, Hou Fei, Hei Yu, and Wu Lan were together. Hou Fei, dressed in golden attire, had a pair of Fire Eyes twinkling with a hint of helplessness. Next to him was Hei Yu, clad in white, exuding coldness.

As for Wu Lan, he sat to the side, drinking wine.

"Monkey, what’s going on with Big Brother this time? I’ve even tried telepathically communicating with him, but he hasn’t responded at all," Hei Yu said, his brows slightly furrowed. Qin Yu’s current period of cultivation was unusually long, causing both Hei Yu and Hou Fei to grow anxious.

Hei Yu and Qin Yu, brothers from childhood, had a unique bond. Even without the power of the soul, a mere thought was enough for them to communicate.

Wu Lan smiled faintly and said, "Telepathic communication echoes within the True Spirit."

"What is the True Spirit?" Hou Fei asked, looking at Wu Lan with confusion.

Wu Lan explained with a smile, "Oh, I forgot. This True Spirit is what you call ’consciousness.’ If there is a connection between consciousnesses, it should generally be received. Since even your telepathic communication gets no response, it seems that Qin Yu has entered a state of deep cultivation where even his consciousness has completely submerged."

"Deep cultivation?" Hou Fei and Hei Yu exchanged glances.

To be so absorbed that even telepathic communication elicited no response was rather astonishing.

"What’s most important is that Big Brother has been cultivating for twenty thousand years. No, only two thousand years have passed in the outside world! But even two thousand years of cultivation is excessively long," Hou Fei said with some urgency.

Wu Lan chided with a laugh, "What do you know, youngster? Such deep cultivation is something you encounter but cannot seek! Normal cultivation is the physical and Nascent Soul’s energy cultivation. Not to mention telepathic communication, even if it was through Demon Recognition, he would be alert."

"This deep level of cultivation isn’t about the body or energy. It is about... Realm cultivation; it’s an understanding of the cosmic space! This is the most profound and deepest level of cultivation, which I can’t even hope for. You two better not disturb your Big Brother with needless telepathic messages. I, for one, hope he continues this cultivation for tens of thousands of years."

After hearing Wu Lan’s words, Hou Fei and Hei Yu could only chuckle.

"Of course, we’re happy if Big Brother has such great fortune. It’s just that both Monkey and I have reached the Ninth level Demon Emperor Soul Realm, and our powers are at the threshold of becoming Eighth Level Demon Emperors. If we hadn’t suppressed our strength, we would have reached Ninth Level Demon Emperor long ago," Hei Yu said helplessly.

Two hundred thousand years of cultivation had seen not only Hou Fei and Hei Yu achieve a soul realm of a Ninth-level Demon Emperor, but if they had not suppressed themselves, their cultivation strength would have reached the Ninth-level Demon Emperor as well.

Hou Fei smacked his lips and said, "Once you enter the Ninth-level Demon Emperor, it’s very likely that you’ll encounter the Divine Tribulation. Although it’s hard to say when the Divine Tribulation will come, it varies in length. But in order not to enter the Divine World too early, we can only suppress our cultivation strength."

Hei Yu nodded in agreement.

Wu Lan said helplessly, "You two lads are cultivating so fast that I can’t even hope to step into the Ninth-level Demon Emperor realm anytime soon. It’s the same for Ye Qu and Wu Xu; they’ve cultivated too rigorously these years."

Hou Fei and Hei Yu felt somewhat embarrassed.

The speed of their cultivation had greatly impacted Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu. The cold and reticent Ao Wuxu didn’t waste words and chose to meditate alone fervently. Ye Qu was also diligently pursuing cultivation.

"Alas, let’s wait slowly. I wonder when Big Brother will finish his cultivation," Hou Fei said helplessly.

Hei Yu smiled, "Over these years, I haven’t spent much time with Ling ’Er. Now I can spend time with her and educate the two kids, Little Tong and Guo Fan."

******

Now, Qin Yu’s consciousness was completely immersed, continuously perceiving and absorbing. He was like an extremely parched traveler, voraciously devouring and absorbing the insights left by Zuo Qiumei.

...

Qin Yu’s body shimmered with a faint golden light, and even the tendons and bones within emanated a dark golden halo – a clear sign of having reached the Ninth Layer of the "Nine-Transformation Dark Gold Body."

Before Qin Yu began his deep meditation, he had already attained the Eighth Level of the "Nine-Transformation Dark Gold Body." Over the following two thousand years, even without active cultivation, long periods of time had still advanced Qin Yu’s body to the Ninth Level.

...

After a long, long time!

Qin Yu, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes, shooting out two substance-like beams of light.

"It’s been three thousand years," Qin Yu calculated in his mind and was shocked to realize that he had cultivated for three thousand years. The deep meditative cultivation felt like the blink of an eye to Qin Yu.

In the span of a finger’s snap, three thousand years had passed.

"Who exactly was Zuo Qiumei? The insights left about cosmic space are so astonishing; in three thousand years, I’ve grasped only a fraction of them, yet even that fraction has made me ten to a hundred times stronger than before."

Qin Yu stood up.

"Dark Star Gravity? Such pure gravity, even increased tenfold, is of no use to me." Qin Yu’s body suddenly released the Power of Gold, scattering around him like a golden halo enveloping him.

And Qin Yu himself began to float off the ground.

Yes, float.

And it was floating on a Dark Star!

On a Fifteen-star Emperor-level Dark Star, even Sixteen-level Emperor powerhouses could only hop on its surface at most. Floating was nearly impossible, unless perhaps for an Eighteen-star Emperor-level powerhouse.

However, Qin Yu’s strength had not yet reached the Eighteen-star Emperor Level; he had only just stepped into the Seventeen-star Emperor Level.

Yet, with his profound insight into cosmic space, Qin Yu easily altered the space around his body, reducing the Dark Star’s gravity in his vicinity by dozens of times.

"Laws are the most basic and the strongest power," Qin Yu had come to understand in his heart.

However, Qin Yu also understood that when two people with equivalent comprehension of space face off, in the end, it’s the most primitive strength that counts. Still, understanding of the ’laws’ is extremely important.

"Ridiculous, ridiculous. The Meteor Finger Technique, what Ten Thousand Layers Finger, what Thousand Illusion Finger, what Ten Absolute Fingers, and that Breaking Space Finger, truly ridiculous, ridiculous!" Qin Yu laughed at himself cynically.

As the saying goes, a frog in a well does not comprehend the vastness of the sky; it’s not until it leaves the well that it understands the boundlessness of the heavens.

That was Qin Yu’s experience.

Initially, his understanding of cosmic space was merely that of an Immortal, Demon, and Monster World Emperor-level expert. Having felt a slight perception of cosmic space, he considered it a great achievement. With that, came the concept of a ’Domain,’ truly like the view from the bottom of a well.

Qin Yu was certain that if he were to fight Peng Demon Emperor again, just by leveraging his understanding of space, Qin Yu could greatly slow down Peng Demon Emperor’s speed, even making this fastest being in the Immortal, Demon, and Monster World the slowest among the Three Demon Emperors.

"The Meteor Finger Technique will do, as long as I master the ’Breaking Space Finger.’" Qin Yu stretched forth the index finger of his right hand.

A beam of Gold Attribute Energy shot out from his finger.

"Hiss!"

The golden Finger Beam, as though piercing through a layer of space, struck directly onto the surface of the Dark Star. Given the toughness of the Dark Star’s surface, it was shockedly pierced to create a crater nearly half a meter deep.

"Haha..." Qin Yu laughed, "On the Fourteen-star Emperor-level Dark Star, it was such a struggle to cut a small piece of Dark Star substance with Heavenly Breaking Divine Sword. But now, a simple finger’s gesture is tenfold more powerful than a Divine Artifact."

Qin Yu had not used the acceleration of a ’Black Hole’ with this finger strike.

This Finger Beam had torn through space by Qin Yu’s insight, shattering the space around it, thus piercing the Dark Star material to a depth of half a meter. However, Qin Yu’s comprehension was still lacking... If it were Zuo Qiumei, Qin Yu suspected, with a mere wave of the hand, the entire Dark Star might turn to ashes.

"I am still weak," Qin Yu sighed within himself.

Weak?

Was Qin Yu really weak? With a body now comparable to an Upper Grade Divine Artifact, there would presumably be few who could defeat him. More so, Qin Yu’s greatest strength lay in his insight into space, although he had only grasped a fraction of what Zuo Qiumei had left him.

Across the Immortal, Demon, and Monster World, perhaps only those like the Dragon Emperor, with an Inheritance Treasure, might withstand Qin Yu using their tortoise-like defenses.

"My body’s strength probably has reached the Seventeen-star Emperor Level by now, and I’m close to the Eighteen-star Emperor Level. No need to rush my cultivation." Qin Yu then prepared to leave the Dark Star, but after taking mere two steps, his eyes widened: "Three thousand years, ah! Feifei and the others have already cultivated for thirty thousand years in the Jiang Lan Realm. Thirty thousand years, don’t tell me they’ve already crossed the Divine Tribulation!"

Shortly after, Qin Yu disappeared into the void from the Dark Star and went to the Jiang Lan Realm.
