Chapter 117
"The Heavenly Mansion can become one of the four major academies of the Ancient Kingdom and establish its status as the top academy in the Eastern Region. Besides the strength of the faculty, the resources it possesses are also one of the advantages that cannot be ignored." Meng Ningdie explained: "As for the Space-Time Corridor, it is actually a special secret realm created by the power of several generations of Heavenly Mansion principals."
A secret realm is similar to a dimensional plane; the difference is that a dimensional plane is evolved after the world collapses and is destroyed, while a secret realm is a special area created artificially.
"Lu Li, you should know that it is not an easy thing for a Magic Card Master to make Magic Cards, especially making high-level Magic Cards, the time span is even longer, and in this process, conceiving Magic Cards often occupies a large part of the time." Crossing her legs, Meng Ningdie changed to a more comfortable posture and lay half-reclined.
"Correct." Nodding, Lu Li still had experience with this point. Even with the permission of simulated construction, he had no way to complete the conception of Magic Cards in an instant, but compared to other Magic Card Masters, it significantly reduced the time spent in this process.
"It is precisely considering this point that several generations of Heavenly Mansion principals joined forces to create the Space-Time Corridor. And the effect and characteristics of the Space-Time Corridor are also very simple, that is, to accelerate the flow of time." As her beautiful red lips opened and closed, Meng Ningdie said something that surprised Lu Li: "To be precise, it accelerates the time flow of all things entering the Space-Time Corridor."
"Conceiving Magic Cards is not a simple thing, and the Space-Time Corridor reduces this time, which can further compress the time spent by Magic Card Masters on conceiving Magic Cards, thereby reducing the time cost of Magic Card Masters making Magic Cards; besides that, while in the Space-Time Corridor, the spirit of the Magic Card Master will also be in a highly active state, and it is easier to burst with inspiration than in daily life."
"This Space-Time Corridor is a bit interesting." Hearing Meng Ningdie's introduction to the Space-Time Corridor, Lu Li couldn't help but smack his lips.
Accelerating the passage of time and improving mental activity is simply a top-tier cheat for Magic Card Masters to conceive Magic Cards.
"However, the time flow of the Space-Time Corridor is not infinitely accelerated. After all, every time it is opened, it requires the consumption of considerable resources, so the points required to exchange for the Teleportation Voucher to enter the Space-Time Corridor are also astonishing."
"Ordinary students, even if they graduate and leave the Heavenly Mansion, may not be able to accumulate enough points required to exchange for a Space-Time Corridor Teleportation Voucher."
"Your performance on the Trial Path and in the Dark Purgatory has already exceeded your peers too much. Plus, you are walking the path of an original Magic Card Master, so the help I can give you is actually not much. The Space-Time Corridor Teleportation Voucher is one of them, and it can also be considered a meeting gift I give you."
When saying this, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled. The little junior brother's growth was even more outrageous than her own, which put a lot of pressure on her as a senior sister.
Even if Lu Li was only just entering the Monarch Realm, and she was already at the peak of the Emperor Realm, who knows if one day she would wake up and Lu Li would have already caught up?
"Senior sister, this meeting gift of yours is very timely for me." Looking at the Space-Time Corridor Teleportation Voucher again, a flash of light appeared in Lu Li's eyes.
At the moment, simulated construction is basically spent on the conception of Kisara's Magic Card, which means that if Lu Li wants to make other Magic Cards, he must conceive them himself. Even if he is already accustomed to this state, it still takes a lot of time.
And at the moment, he happens to have a few Magic Cards that need to be conceived. This gift from Meng Ningdie is indeed very timely.
"There is one last thing, which is about the exchange tournament between the four major academies. The principal has the idea of letting you participate in it, but there is still a lot of time before the exchange tournament begins, so you don't need to take this matter to heart for the time being, just know it." After explaining everything to Lu Li, Meng Ningdie finally breathed a sigh of relief and stretched, her tight-fitting outfit showing a stunning and perfect curve.
"The exchange tournament between the four major academies?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows, but since Meng Ningdie said there was no need to take it to heart for the time being, he would prioritize dealing with the matters at hand.
"Senior sister, are there any restrictions on using this voucher?" Waving the Teleportation Voucher in his hand, Lu Li asked.
"Do you want to use it now?" Meng Ningdie was stunned.
"Isn't there a monthly hunt in two weeks? I originally planned to make some more Magic Cards, but it's a pity that time is a bit tight," Lu Li explained: "But now with the Space-Time Corridor Teleportation Voucher, time should be enough."
Not only making special Magic Cards, but if possible, Lu Li also wanted to see if he could find a breakthrough point for the evolution of Magic Cards and the Shipgirl World. After all, the Space-Time Corridor also has the effect of improving the mental activity of Magic Card Masters, and the probability of getting inspiration at this time is four times higher than in daily life..
226, Starry Soul Body, Night Queen Returns!
"Little junior brother, if things continue like this, I always feel that it won't take long before I, your senior sister, will be caught up by you and thrown away." Hearing Lu Li's explanation, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but roll her eyes. Does Lu Li have no limits in making Magic Cards?
"Senior sister, you are already at the peak of the Commander Realm, and you are only one step away from being promoted to the Sovereign Realm. The distance between me and you is still a billion points far." To this, Lu Li just shrugged.
"The problem is that at your age, I hadn't even broken through to the Monarch Realm yet." Meng Ningdie was a bit dumbfounded: "Also, what exactly do you think breaking through to the Sovereign Realm is? If the Sovereign Realm were really so easy to break through, then our Ancient Kingdom wouldn't have only that few Sovereign Realm Magic Card Masters."
The Ancient Kingdom has a large population, and even if Magic Card Masters are only a part of it, there are tens of billions of them, while the number of Sovereign Realm experts, adding up the twelve capital cities and hundreds of satellite cities, is only about a few hundred people.
On average, a satellite city only has a few people, and even if the number in the twelve capital cities is a bit more, it's only a few more. It can be said that only one Sovereign can be produced out of millions of Magic Card Masters; this ratio is already low enough.
Even as a student of the Night Queen, even with absolute confidence in breaking through to the Sovereign Realm, Meng Ningdie dared not guarantee when she would be able to successfully break through.
Giving Lu Li a big white eye, Meng Ningdie then stated the precautions for using the Teleportation Voucher: "Actually, there isn't much to pay attention to; it's about the same as the New Moon Voucher."
"However, the Space-Time Corridor Teleportation Voucher will only teleport the soul of the Magic Card Master over, while the physical body remains in the real world, so you'd better find a safe place to use it."
"I think this place is quite suitable." Being given a big white eye by Meng Ningdie, Lu Li couldn't help but grin.
The Eternal Land is undoubtedly the safest, but Lu Li is not sure if the Teleportation Voucher can still produce effects after entering the Eternal Land; if it were wasted, it would be a pity; the student dormitory is also a good choice, as long as the prohibition is opened, ordinary Magic Card Masters have no way to break in.
But compared to the student dormitory, it is obviously safer here at Meng Ningdie's!
"I knew you would definitely have this idea." Meng Ningdie was not too surprised, but still couldn't help but coquettishly scold: "You can stay here during this period, but teleporting to the Space-Time Corridor puts a lot of burden on the soul of the Magic Card Master. Once you feel you can't hold on, it's best to teleport back immediately."
"Without reaching the Sovereign Realm, the soul and body are separated for a long time, and it is very easy to get lost in the Space-Time Corridor."
Even in Magic Card civilization, space-time power is one of the top powers, otherwise, the Space-Time Corridor would not be able to accelerate the passage of time.
"I understand." Lu Li nodded; he still understood this point, and he wouldn't joke with his own life.
"In the next period, I will go into the Space-Time Corridor to conceive new Magic Cards, you guys just rest well in the Eternal Land." After silently instructing Mana and the others in his heart, Lu Li took out and activated the Teleportation Voucher.
The next moment, Lu Li lay on the bed as if his soul had left his body. Sensing Lu Li's abnormality, Meng Ningdie looked toward his room and whispered softly: "Little junior brother, how long can you hold on this time?"
"Is this the Space-Time Corridor?" A wave of space fluctuated, and Lu Li's figure appeared within the Space-Time Corridor, but because he was a soul body, his figure looked relatively illusory.
As an artificial secret realm, the Space-Time Corridor exists with many differences from ordinary dimensional planes. The most obvious is that there are no signs of any living bodies in the Space-Time Corridor, but this does not mean that the Space-Time Corridor is inferior to dimensional planes.
On the contrary, while in the Space-Time Corridor, Lu Li had a feeling of being in a galaxy, with shining starlight everywhere he looked, like a dream and illusion.
"Mental power is indeed much more active than in the past, and thinking is also clearer. Some subtle problems that were not noticed in the past are also infinitely magnified here." Scanning the environment of the Space-Time Corridor casually, Lu Li began to pay attention to his own changes: "However, mental power suddenly becoming so active is indeed a burden on oneself. It seems that wanting to stay here for a long time is not realistic."
"It's a pity that only the soul body can enter the Space-Time Corridor. If the body could also be synchronized, this situation might be alleviated, and one could hold on for a longer time." Lu Li's tone had a trace of regret, and then he collected his mind and began to conceive new Magic Cards and a new worldview.
"Almost ten days have passed; I didn't expect the little junior brother to hold on for such a long time." In the villa at the back of the Heavenly Mansion, Meng Ningdie lay on the sofa, with a slightly transparent light black pajamas worn casually on her body, sliding up and down from time to time with the girl's small movements.
In her words, Meng Ningdie's tone had a trace of complexity, and her beautiful eyes looked toward Lu Li's room.
It has been nearly ten days since Lu Li entered the Space-Time Corridor, and this is still real time. The time Lu Li's soul body experienced in the Space-Time Corridor will only be longer, and this far exceeds Meng Ningdie's imagination.
Meng Ningdie still remembers that the first time she entered the Space-Time Corridor, she only held on for about five days before she had to leave... Even so, she gained good harvests.
And now Lu Li has held on for ten days, the time has directly doubled, which is much stronger than she was at that time.
"It's just that I don't know what kind of harvest the little junior brother will have this time?" Thinking this way, Meng Ningdie, who was originally lying down, also sat up, and the tight-fitting pajamas swayed from time to time with the girl's movements: "No, if this continues, I'm afraid I will be caught up by the little junior brother soon, and I can't continue to be a salted fish."
"It seems you are getting along quite well." A voice full of charm echoed in the villa, and the Night Queen Yue Nishang stepped out from the void, as charming and unparalleled as ever.
"Teacher, why are you here?" Hearing the Night Queen's words, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but act spoiled, revealing a little girl's posture that she hadn't shown in the past: "I was almost scared by you."
"Less of that, as soon as you wag your tail, I know what you are thinking." The Night Queen pointed at Meng Ningdie's smooth forehead angrily: "I got a bit of card-making inspiration from Lu Li some time ago, but I still lack a little something to successfully make the new Magic Card, so I came out for a walk."
Worthy of being you! Little junior brother! Understanding the Night Queen's intention, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but smack her lips. Providing card-making inspiration to an Undying Realm big shot, I guess only Lu Li can do it.
In her words, peach-blossom beautiful eyes swept over Meng Ningdie, and the Night Queen's gaze finally locked onto Lu Li's room, asking with a bit of interest: "Space-Time Corridor? You put some thought into this meeting gift. How long has Lu Li been in the Space-Time Corridor?"
For Lu Li, the Night Queen is still relatively concerned; after all, the other party has the identity of an original Magic Card maker, and there is a high probability that he is a ten-thousand-year powerhouse of the current era.
Of course, the most important point is that Lu Li is still her student. Since she has already taken him in as a student, the Night Queen naturally cannot ignore him.
"Counting today, he has been in for ten days." Seeing this, Meng Ningdie asked with a bit of curiosity: "Teacher, how long did you stay inside the first time you entered the Space-Time Corridor?"
"Ten days?" The Night Queen shook her head and pinched Meng Ningdie's little face with her orchid fingers: "Girl, what bad idea are you having again?"
"No, I'm just curious; after all, I only held on for five days the first time." Meng Ningdie pouted.
The two have been together for a long time, and it is only in front of the Night Queen that Meng Ningdie will show a little girl's posture different from the past..
227, You make me very difficult
"The first time I entered the Space-Time Corridor, I only held on for nine days. By the tenth day, I had to leave." Finally, the Night Queen told her experience with a trace of doting, but her tone was filled with a trace of sighing.
Although it was only a one-day difference, this also meant the gap between talent and soul.
The student I favored is indeed extraordinary. A thought emerged in the Night Queen's heart. Especially thinking that after a conversation with Lu Li not long ago, the conception of the new Magic Card had made breakthrough progress, a beautiful smile couldn't help but rise on the Night Queen's face.
"Hiss!" Hearing that the Night Queen only held on for nine days the first time she entered the Space-Time Corridor, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but smack her lips: "Doesn't this mean the little junior brother is even more powerful than you, Teacher?"
"Girl, is your skin itchy?" Hearing Meng Ningdie's statement after coming back to her senses, the Night Queen couldn't help but roll her eyes at her: "You have been quite slack during this period; be careful of being surpassed by Lu Li and pressed under him."
The Night Queen naturally hopes that her students can be stronger than her after growing up, but being said directly to her face by Meng Ningdie like this, don't I need face?
"Teacher, what kind of statement is this." Meng Ningdie laughed dryly; it seems she really shouldn't have said that in front of the other party just now. But regarding the Night Queen's statement that is easy to misunderstand, Meng Ningdie still couldn't help but complain.
"I have a premonition that Lu Li might leave the Space-Time Corridor soon, so I will stay here with you for a few days." Intimately rubbing Meng Ningdie's head, the Night Queen sat down: "Come and tell me, has anything happened during this period."
The Night Queen was in a closed-door state of conceiving Magic Cards some time ago, so she didn't pay much attention to external matters, and for general matters, the city lords of the three cities in the Eastern Region, the president of the Magic Card Association, and the principal of the Heavenly Mansion could all handle them, so her days were not as busy as imagined.
If you want to talk about this, then I'm not sleepy!
Her eyes shining slightly, Meng Ningdie told the story about the Trial Path and the Dark Purgatory in one breath.
"Dark Purgatory, Long Ni?" Peach-blossom beautiful eyes had narrowed, and the Night Queen's tone had become much colder: "He really has enough guts to dare to come to the Eastern Region to make trouble, and even dare to take action against my people. Very good."
The Eastern Region is her territory, and the Heavenly Mansion is the number one academy for cultivating and sending talent for the Eastern Region. These Long Ni daring to make trouble here is obviously not putting her, this Eastern Region Domain Lord, in their eyes.
But what made the Night Queen most angry was that these Long Ni dared to pay attention to Lu Li. If something happened to Lu Li, it would not only mean she lost a disciple, but even the Ancient Kingdom would very likely lose a ten-thousand-year powerhouse of the current era, which is something the Night Queen absolutely cannot accept.
But at the same time, the Night Queen was also amazed at Lu Li's growth. She believed that Meng Ningdie would not lie to her, which meant that Lu Li's growth during this period far exceeded her imagination.
As for the appearance of the eight-star Magic Card, it also made the Night Queen slightly dazed. She didn't expect that the Magic Card Lu Li made during the college entrance examination could further improve its combat power.
"How far can you grow? Lu Li." The Night Queen was faintly filled with a trace of expectation.
Time passed, and another two days passed. During this period, the Night Queen went to find Wen Xiuyuan to deal with the matter of Long Ni. Unfortunately, Lu Li still showed no signs of leaving the room in these two days, which also meant that the other party had not yet left the Space-Time Corridor.
"Teacher, will something happen to the little junior brother?" Meng Ningdie's tone had a trace of worry.
With her current strength, even if she stayed in the Space-Time Corridor for a whole month, there would be no problem, but the key is that she is now at the peak of the Emperor Realm, while Lu Li stayed in the Space-Time Corridor for nearly half a month with the strength of the Monarch Realm, which seemed a bit abnormal in Meng Ningdie's view.
After all, even the Night Queen only stayed for nine days the first time she entered the Space-Time Corridor.
Therefore, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but suspect that Lu Li had encountered some accident in the Space-Time Corridor.
"Wait a little longer," compared to Meng Ningdie, the Night Queen appeared much calmer. In her perception, Lu Li's body had not shown any abnormality for the time being, which meant that Lu Li's soul, which was teleported into the Space-Time Corridor, was still in a relatively stable state.
