King Tong Nan
Lin Yan has the right to choose an immortal teacher to guide him for a long time when he enters the Original Secret Realm, and he can also change different immortal teachers according to the needs of the Primal Secret Region Member!
Certainly.
That's what they say, but the minimum requirement for someone to be a teacher to Primal Secret Region Member is "Marquis-level Immortal". They come to be your teacher mainly because they think highly of your future and want to build a good relationship with you. To suggest replacing them would undoubtedly be disrespectful.
Firstly, I offended my previous teacher.
Secondly, sending Immortal God teachers requires a voluntary process. If this spreads a reputation for arrogance and conceit, who would be willing to teach?
Not many Primal Secret Region Member can successfully grow into Marquis, so why would they want to fawn over you?
A person can have many teachers.
However, their statuses are different.
Those who truly kowtow to their master have the closest relationship and are the most considerate and thoughtful towards their disciples. Teachers who simply teach public lectures, on the other hand, naturally have a more distant relationship with their students.
The Virtual Universe Company arranged for them to live in the manor and teach the Primal Secret Region Member. They had a close relationship with the group, but they did not need to kowtow.
For Lin Yan, this was a rare opportunity to ask questions and get answers to many of his doubts.
However, problems also exist.
When he applied to be a teacher, he could only state some requirements, such as being a teacher who was good at "the Time Law and Space Law". Such a person who Marquis-level Immortal is extremely rare in the outside world, but there are plenty of them in the Virtual Universe Company.
He could accept whoever the Virtual Universe Company sent, regardless of their skill level or suitability for him.
In the original novel, after Luo Feng ascended to the Original Secret Realm, when he was choosing a teacher, it was his teacher, True Yan King, who planned for him and personally helped him find a suitable teacher. Luo Feng only needed to mention a name when applying.
Among the Marquis-level Immortal, the weakest can barely be granted the Marquis, while the strongest can reach the Peak Feng Hou. Their actual combat strength is barely enough to qualify King Rank, showing a huge gap between them.
Lin Yan is currently focusing his energy on analyzing the essence of things, and even among Marquis-level Immortal, very few are capable of guiding him in this regard.
Because they themselves haven't even reached that point yet.
When the Genius Battle ended, the Qianwu Country Lord summoned him once to encourage him, because three people from that year made it into the top ten, and Lin Yan's performance was particularly outstanding. The Qianwu Country Lord was in a good mood and asked him what other rewards he wanted.
Lin Yan thought for a moment and then said that he wanted to pursue the path of analyzing the essence of things. He asked if Lin Yan could recommend a suitable teacher. He didn't need a long-term, close mentor, just some guidance at the beginning.
Even the Qianwu Country Lord was somewhat troubled by this, only saying that he would help him make an introduction, but the probability of success was very, very low.
Lin Yan didn't have high hopes either. After all, the Qianwu Country Lord wouldn't pay any price for him. He could only say that if he applied on his own, it would definitely be ignored, but the Qianwu Country Lord's recommendation would definitely make the other party see it.
As for the specific outcome, that depends on the other party's own thoughts.
No one can force you to do that.
His original idea was that it would be best if he could succeed, but if not, so be it. He would simply not apply for the time being, and once he arrived in Chaos City, he wouldn't be afraid of not being able to find a good teacher. He could then ask the teacher for advice.
More than a year has passed, Lin Yan had long since stopped caring about the matter. Unexpectedly, he actually received some news.
King Tong Nan!
This was an extremely powerful expert who had reached the limit of the King Rank- level, and had entered the most fundamental aspect of the Time Law. He was incredibly close to becoming Universe Venerable level. He actually agreed to his request and was willing to guide him for a period of time, until the end of the 30 years in Chaos City.
Although it is difficult to bridge the final gap between being Universe Venerable, such an existence is high above all others and holds an extremely high position in the Virtual Universe Company. Even Universe Venerable must attach great importance to it.
This made Lin Yan feel incredibly lucky!
Even if it's only 30 years, it's extremely rare. No other Primal Secret Region Member would receive such treatment.
Now that he had confirmed the news, Lin Yan formally sent an email to submit his application, adding words of utmost respect for "King Tong Nan" and expressing his hope that he could become his teacher.
While it's true that "Feng Wang level Immortal" and "Universe Venerable" can provide close guidance, that depends entirely on the willingness of those important figures.
Normally, they wouldn't do such a thing.
Two days later, Virtual Universe Company sent him an email indicating that the matter had been finalized.
About half a month later.
The main entrance of the manor.
Beside Lin Yan, Gate Gard, clad in Golden Battle Armor, awaited the arrival of King Tong Nan.
Although Gate's armor looks somewhat flamboyant, he is actually a rather refined and quiet person, and rarely shows any emotional fluctuations.
But at this moment, he seemed a little nervous.
This is King Tong Nan!
This was a well-established figure, and he had naturally heard of his reputation long ago, but he never expected that the other party would be willing to become Lin Yan's personal mentor!
This is such a huge honor!
Even though it's only been thirty years, it's already quite terrifying.
"They're here," Gate said suddenly, looking up at the sky.
Lin Yan raised an eyebrow and immediately looked closely. In the distance, a white streak of light instantly streaked across the sky and appeared in front of Lin Yan, revealing its form.
He was dressed in a white battle robe, slightly thin, with a pale face and two black horns, but what was unusual was that he kept his eyes closed the whole time.
Lin Yan couldn't help but think that since this King Tong Nan had such a title, he must have some other special features in his pupils.
Although he was Primal Secret Region Member, the difference in status between him and the other party was still huge. Even when searching for information about King Tong Nan, he could only find the most basic information.
"Lin Yan greets King Tong Nan teacher." Lin Yan stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
Gate followed suit and bowed respectfully. "Greetings King Tong Nan."
"We don't need to address you that way for now," the thin man in white robes said calmly. "I took a look; you said you want to pursue the path of researching the Law essence?"
Lin Yan nodded and said respectfully, "Yes."
"Analyzing the essence is extremely difficult! The 30 years you spent in the Chaos City to comprehend it are of utmost importance to you. If you take this path, you may waste these invaluable 30 years."
The gaunt man in white robes said calmly, "Over the past billions of years, I have seen some geniuses who have tried, but only a handful have succeeded. The vast majority have wasted their time. I advise you to give up this idea."
His first words were a direct advice to Lin Yan to abandon the idea of analyzing the essence.
Lin Yan shook his head. "King Tong Nan teacher should also understand that if I could give up so easily, I would not have even considered taking this path."
To understand the essence of things, one must persevere. There will inevitably be voices of doubt and self-doubt, but what is needed is the unwavering belief in perseverance.
Lin Yan guessed that King Tong Nan agreed because he wanted to follow the path of the Law essence.
This so-called advice was actually a basic test. If Lin Yan wavered even slightly, it meant that he would not be able to achieve anything on this path.
King Tong Nan nodded slightly without saying anything, but then he started walking into the manor, with Lin Yan and Gate following behind.
"Go to the training ground and let me see your foundation, to see your current level of Law Comprehension of the laws, and whether you have taken any wrong turns." King Tong Nan's calm voice rang out, "If your level does not meet my requirements, then apply to the company for another teacher."
King Tong Nan had been staying in Chaos City in seclusion, rarely even entering the Virtual Universe. In general, he had been stuck at this bottleneck in his Law Comprehension for countless years, and with nothing else to do, it was really nothing to give a little guy some guidance in his spare time.
Thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Moreover, Lin Yan has spent most of the past thirty years comprehending in Chaos City, so he doesn't need to pay much attention to him.
He had indeed had contact with the Qianwu Country Lord, but they weren't exactly close. However, after the Qianwu Country Lord introduced him, he took note of Lin Yan and learned a little about him.
Lin Yan's talent was exceptional, and his plan to pursue the path of analyzing the essence of things piqued my interest to some extent.
Moreover, this year's Genius Battle was hosted by the Nine Swords Venerable. Logically, if Lin Yan a strongman in the future, he will also come under the Nine Swords Venerable's command, which is why he finally agreed to the request.
He was not familiar with the Nine Swords Venerable, but he was a true friend to the Nine Swords Venerable's strongest King level Immortal, "Longyu King," with whom he had gone through many tribulations and developed a very deep bond.
"I'll give you this bento for her sake, "King Tong Nan thought to himself.
However, if Lin Yan's performance was not satisfactory, he had no interest in wasting his time. In his opinion, with Lin Yan's talent, it was still possible for him to comprehend the first essence within 10 to 20 years.
The training ground was so shiny that it could be seen through.
King Tong Nan said softly, "Go and unleash all your current Law Comprehension. It doesn't matter whether you use telekinetic weapons or close combat."
"Let me see just how far you've come."
Lin Yan replied respectfully, "Yes, teacher."
Then, with a swift movement, he transformed into a phantom and appeared in the center of the training ground.
A sword appeared in his hand, just an ordinary alloy battle sword with no special effects.
Call!
Suddenly, Lin Yan's eyes flashed with divine light. He leaped into the air, his Light Time ethereal and incredibly agile, sometimes calm and focused, simple yet sharp, subtly echoing the fluctuations of time in the universe.
Each sword strike contained some Conception of the Time Origin Law, and in Lin Yan's hands, it was executed with unparalleled smoothness.
Do not be attached to material things, nor be endangered by your mind.
In an instant, the shadows of swords were ethereal, yet seemed to fill the heavens and earth!
Although King Tong Nan closed, Lin Yan's swordsmanship was clearly imprinted in his mind. He was not surprised by Lin Yan's Law Comprehension, as he had already learned about it. However, the application of the Law Comprehension in this swordsmanship was already quite profound.
It seems they must have put in a lot of hard work.
He's already at this level before even entering Chaos City. No wonder he shone so brightly in the Genius Battle. He's already reached the minimum standard he's set for himself.
"Um?"
King Tong Nan was initially quite casual, but as he looked around, his expression suddenly changed.
Call!
The sword flashed like lightning!
Lin Yan unleashed three sword strikes in an instant, each attack following a subtle "fluctuation curve," disrupting the Time Flow Rate under the sword light.
"This is..."
"He has grasped the three most basic and fundamental Time Origin Law!"
"This... how is this possible?"
Even though King Tong Nan had been famous for millions of years and had seen countless geniuses, he was still incredibly shocked at this moment.
Don't underestimate these three simplest and most basic ones.
This is the essence of the Time Law, and it is extremely difficult to analyze. Even in an environment like Chaos City, the effect of comprehension is ten times that of the Primordial Universe. In his opinion, it would be quite good if he could comprehend the first one within 20 years.
Within ten years, it will be excellent!
But what is he seeing now? He hasn't even entered Chaos City yet, and the Genius Battle has only ended a little over a year ago, and he has already comprehended three kinds of techniques?
What kind of genius is this?
That's outrageous!
If he went to Chaos City, wouldn't he be able to defy the heavens?
But Lin Yan's performance was not over yet. His figure left a series of Phantom Body in the space. Each Phantom Body was scattered in a layout similar to a "Nine Palaces Grid". His figure was very strange and ghostly.
Even the ordinary alloy sword in Lin Yan's hand was unpredictable, with each strike extremely sharp.
"Um?"
Here we go again! What is all this?!
King Tong Nan was so shocked that he almost opened his eyes!
Gate, standing beside him, also stared wide-eyed, exclaiming in surprise, "The Space Law?"
It is precisely the Space Law!
But didn't Lin Yan comprehend the Origin Law of "light and time"?
Lin Yan had considered it. He realized that Chaos City would definitely want to show off his understanding of the spatial Law Comprehension. Since he hoped that King Tong Nan would teach him, he couldn't keep it hidden and then suddenly appear out of nowhere. So he directly used it, but he didn't reveal the essence of the Space Law he had glimpsed for the time being.
If I act a little more monstrous then, at least he'll have some idea of what to expect.
A moment later—
Lin Yan's figure transformed into a hazy phantom, instantly appearing beside King Tong Nan.
"Please give your feedback, teacher."
Lin Yan remained calm and bowed slightly in greeting.
