She was the princess of a high-ranking clan, yet she died just like that. Is this how fierce the competitions of the major forces are?

Su Ping shook his head; the Archean Divinity was too complicated. Fortunately, he could resurrect; he didn’t have to care about those complex relationships. All he had to do was focus on cultivating.

“Just tell him that I’m still busy with secluded training,” said Su Ping to the maid.

The maid was relieved to see that he had chosen to decline the challenge. She quickly said, “Got it, master.”

Su Ping then left to find the young mentor, and soon found the guy.

The young mentor remembered him, as he had paid him a visit recently. Why has he returned after such a short amount of time?

“Sir, I was wondering if I could ask you more about the multiplication of worlds!”

“Didn’t I show you last time?”

“I didn’t fully understand it!”

“…”

The young mentor nearly choked when he saw how shameless Su Ping was. However, remembering that the latter was a human being, he heaved a sigh and could only say, “You should either focus on grasping more laws or on breaking into the next level at the moment. World multiplication would be too hard for you right now!”

“My small world has already been perfected. I want to condense a second small world,” said Su Ping directly.

“You might make mistakes if you are too hasty about it… Wait, what?” The young mentor looked at Su Ping in surprise. “Your first small world has been perfected?”

“Yes!” Su Ping simply released his small world to demonstrate.

The young mentor was startled by Su Ping’s small world and its pressure. It had truly been perfected!

No wonder he was in such a hurry to continue with the next small world…

But his level…

The young mentor gazed at Su Ping in a trance. Not even the nobles among the god clans are as terrifying as him, are they?

“Sir, can you teach me now?” asked Su Ping in earnest.

The young mentor realized what was going on, and coughed to cover for his pause. Fortunately, he thought things through very quickly and didn’t reveal shock on his face. He then said solemnly, “Remarkable. You’ve made progress really fast; you must be the most talented human being in the last ten thousand years. However, you must not become arrogant! I will show you again. Watch and learn.”

Su Ping nodded quickly.

The young mentor immediately revealed his small world, patiently interpreting again and again for Su Ping to grasp the concept.

Su Ping watched carefully, deep in thought.

Once, twice… The young mentor taught him carefully and tirelessly.

Su Ping was completely devoted to learning. A long time later, when he came back to his deep thinking, he found that the young mentor was nowhere to be seen.

Su Ping didn’t chase after him. Instead, he focused his attention on recalling the guy’s teachings and demonstrations about world multiplication; he felt that he was onto something.

He then returned to his palace, entered the training room and immediately started cultivating.

He summoned all of his strength and released his small world.

When it comes to having multiple worlds, I must prevent them from sharing anything in common, so that they won’t meld together… I must find supporting elements for the worlds… Su Ping remembered the young mentor’s teachings. He acted solemnly as he tried creating a second world with the path of illusion as the core, right inside his first small world.

Very soon, the prototype of a small world was created.

The energy inside Su Ping’s body was crazily absorbed into it. He tried to keep the balance of the new world, while overlapping it with his first world.

A long time passed, then Su Ping suddenly changed his expression and vomited a mouthful of blood.

They had a conflict. The foundation of laws in my first small world was nearly shaken…

Su Ping furrowed his brow. He simply summoned his energy and quickly blew himself up, resurrecting soon after.

Although the move would cost energy, it was much faster than healing himself with pills. Time was money!

Su Ping tried again.

He failed again.

He failed again.

Bang!

Su Ping was resurrected time and again in the training room. He kept attempting, sometimes recklessly and sometimes carefully. Although he had already figured out the multiplying method, it wasn’t easy for him to put it into practice; he couldn’t help but admire the Ancestral God who had created seven small worlds.

Time flew.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the training room—Su Ping suddenly opened his eyes. The energy inside his body was rampant and seemed unstoppable, but it was absolutely under Su Ping’s control.

Multiplication is not about overriding, but reflection!

It’s like a human being’s shadow, or the light shining in the water!

Su Ping’s eyes were brilliant. All his power was unleashed; however, his control was extremely terrifying. Infinite energy was being orderly built up; moments later, a hazy world of illusion was gradually condensed. He had already accomplished that two days prior; what came next was the difficult part.

“Reflect!”

Su Ping sent the world of illusion away from the first small world. The laws in the first small world, however, were spinning madly and on the verge of collapse, like countless loosening gears. There was an attraction force at the center of the spinning laws, which had the feeling as if light was being reflected!

The world of illusion in midair darted towards the opening among the laws, precisely as if attracted to them.

There was a boom, and the entire training room trembled.

Su Ping felt that something inside his body had also exploded; a horrifying aura was spread out with his body as the center. Next to Su Ping, the two worlds which had been completely joined were in an amazing status of multiplication.

Such multiplication wasn’t like two quilts put together, which could be easily separated.

Instead, they were embedded into each other; the cores of the laws were melted, but their unique features remained independent. It would also be hard for Su Ping to separate the two small worlds at the moment!

This was the real multiplication effect!

A strange power appeared between the two worlds during the multiplication.

Su Ping felt that something inside his body seemed to have been dredged. His energy was pouring into the world of illusion.

Originally, the energy inside his body could pour into the first world at any time. It seemed that there was an additional bucket inside his body at the moment. His energy could pour into two worlds at the same time, which implied a greater cost for him.

Fortunately, Su Ping had abundant energy to begin with. Adding the vitality law, his energy had already been replenished before it was exhausted.

It’s true that all the four supreme laws are horrifying, Su Ping remarked in his heart.

He stood up inside the training room, and his small worlds emerged behind his back like glittering halos; death and desolation could be seen from them. There was a hazy, void world in the shadows of the halo, where nothing could be seen. However, one would feel inevitably attracted to it, as if something had been hidden there.

This is my power after creating a second small world. It’s much greater than when I only had one…

Su Ping examined himself. Although he didn’t unleash his strength, he could feel the horrifying power inside his body, which was ten times greater than before!

I should practice with beasts in the forbidden land.

Su Ping walked out of the training room with the intention to fully control his strength.

Su Ping had improved another aspect when he cultivated a second small world, which was the absolute control of his strength. He was able to harness and focus the tiniest bit of strength in his body, which further empowered his secret technique, allowing him to gather 99% of his strength, instead of the prior 90%!

The improvement was below ten percent, but further progress was extremely difficult once the limits were close.

Su Ping had developed the secret technique on his own. It wasn’t any less terrifying than the powerful secret techniques he had learned elsewhere.

“Master, you’re out?”

The maid was surprised to see Su Ping leave the palace, and quickly said, “Master, that prince of the Rain Clan sent a servant to keep an eye on our island. He’ll see you if you go out…”

“Huh?”

Su Ping paused and finally remembered the matter. His eyes turned cold; he had always wanted to finish off the guy who had provoked him again and again.

Exactly at that moment, a man roared from outside of the island, “Su Ping, come out!

“For a student of the Heaven Path Institute to hide like a turtle, just after being challenged to a duel. Are you not ashamed? Or are all human beings cowards like you?”

Su Ping slightly changed his expression.

The maid’s expression also changed, and said to Su Ping, “Master, he is the prince’s servant, and is deliberately trying to anger you. Don’t go out. The bigshots in the academy will punish him if he continues. He has committed insubordination by yelling at you while he is a mere servant!”

“That will be unnecessary.”

Su Ping said coldly, “Since someone is in a hurry to get killed, I’ll grant their wish!”

Su Ping stepped out and reached the top of the palace as he talked.

He saw a brawny man cursing and yelling at the gate of the island; the latter also belonged to a high-ranking clan. He was quite strong, even though he was just a Star Lord, giving off the feeling of a looming dragon with a mountain-like aura.

The servants in the other four palaces on the island were whispering to each other.

Su Ping was assigned to that island along with four others when he was admitted to the academy. The brawny young man had been pestering all of them over the past two days.

They held back their anger after learning that the guy was a servant of the Rain Clan’s prince, choosing not to report him to the authorities, as they didn’t want to offend the Rain Clan.

Even though that prince hadn’t passed the divine quality test and wasn’t an official student, he was still cultivating in the academy, and could have a chance to be admitted later.

“He’s been yelling every day! How annoying!”

“Did the human named Su Ping not hear it? You cannot decline a challenge. Even if he’s training in seclusion, can he hide there forever?”

“He pissed the Rain Clan’s prince. This dude is doomed.”

Two of the gods living on the island were quite angry with Su Ping. They thought he had surely offended the prince because he was too arrogant, and that it would be impossible for him to keep on hiding.

Their own cultivation was also being affected, since they couldn’t focus.

Another student—who was from the gods’ vassal race—had talked to Su Ping earlier, and felt sorry for him. Human beings were weak; it wasn’t easy for them to enter the Heaven Path Institute. If Su Ping died, it would be a huge loss for humanity.

“Su Ping, come out!”

Roars burst out again from the gate of the island.

However, Su Ping had already stepped out of the palace; nobody could see the expression on his face. He disappeared in the blink of an eye. The yells and curses came to an abrupt end at the same time.

“Are you Su Ping?”

The brawny man narrowed his eyes, taken aback by Su Ping who had appeared out of nowhere. The man sneered after recognizing that he was a human being. “Coward, you’re finally out. My master…”

“Rot in hell!”

Su Ping’s reply was brief yet cold.

His eyes were as scary as two lightning bolts, which made the brawny man’s heart race as if he were being stabbed. He changed his expression, not expecting a direct attack. He roared and released his small world. Splendid shadows emerged behind his back with the most awe-inspiring pressure at the same time.

Su Ping then raised his leg and brought it slashing down, as if he were a sword that had been unsheathed in midair!

His brilliance was as dazzling as the sun. The illusion of a small world seemed to flash in the front end of his foot as he stomped.. After a boom, the entire gate exploded and collapsed.
