King Tian Yu

The Demon Mountain is tall and majestic, suspended in the void.

The cold wind howled along the vast, icy passage, carrying icy air that surged into the boundless void before vanishing completely.

Suddenly--

A streak of light flew out swiftly from the outer entrance cave, revealing its form in the void.

"Three years and eight months, a little earlier than I expected." Lin Yan looked at the endless Demon Mountain and sighed inwardly.

His main purpose in coming to the Ice Mountain was to increase the intensity of his Body Amplitude. Now, having cultivated the "Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body" to the Seventh Refinement, he can be considered to have achieved perfect success.

Lin Yan shook his head. "It's a pity that I don't have the Fifth Volume of 'Black Hole Evolution'. If I had the subsequent secret techniques of 'Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body', I might even be able to master it."

The Fifth Volume of "Black Hole Evolution" costs ten million points, a sum he doesn't yet possess.

In fact, he also discovered some special aspects during his cultivation process.

The Virtual Universe Company's arrangement for the "Demon Mountain" mission could not be solely due to the Divine General inheritance behind it. The location of that Inheritance Palace contains countless Illusion Beasts, some of which are even comparable to immortal beings.

Without special abilities, it would be impossible to go deep into the Cosmic level.

Moreover, the Divine General inheritance every 10081 epochs, with a maximum of 32 people per batch, and each batch has been arranged by the Hong Alliance with specific quotas. In these 10081 epochs, the Virtual Universe Company Cosmic level members will have been updated and replaced countless times.

Whether such a secret exists or not makes little difference.

In truth, the Demon Mountain itself is an excellent training ground; the Magic Sound Mountain trains the soul, Ice Mountain trains the body.

Lin Yan discovered that the invisible cold air in the Ice Mountain was very special. Although it could severely damage body cells, if one could withstand it, it would naturally be beneficial to the body.

It seems that Magic Sound Mountain has a similar effect.

Certainly.

If Lin Yan didn't have a special secret technique like the "Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body," the benefits wouldn't be very significant, and other Cosmic level members wouldn't dare to be as reckless as him in the extremely cold region of the Ice Mountain.

At this moment—

Three White-robed Protector, accompanied by a small team of Silver-robed Steward, quickly flew over from a distance.

"Your His Highness Lin Yan!" They bowed respectfully, and the leader, a young man in white robes named Yi Chang, stepped forward. "Congratulations on Your Highness's escape from the Ice Mountain."

The white-robed youth Yi Chang, sighed inwardly. Twenty years after leaving Chaos City, he was able to complete the Demon Mountain Mission and survive in the Demon Mountain for more than three years without any damage. Apart from this prince, there was probably no one else who could do it.

What is a desperate situation?

The dangers involved are self-evident.

"Please come with us, Your Highness, to confirm the completion of the Demon Mountain Mission and verify the 400,000-point reward," the white-robed youth said respectfully.

"Hmm." Lin Yan nodded, then said, "Not only that, but in these three years, I have also successfully collected 10,000 Black Token."

"10,000 Black Token?" The white-robed youth Yi Chang was shocked. "Your His Highness Lin Yan, collecting 10,000 Black Token is far more difficult than the survival mission. It has been a long time since Your Highness has been able to accomplish this. It is truly admirable."

The fastest way to collect 10,000 Black Token is to kill powerful World Master. Their strength is extraordinary, and they naturally possess a great many Black Tokens.

How incredible is it that Cosmic Level Nine being could kill World Master?

Moreover, the special environment in Demon Mountain is extremely deadly. It is the location of Desperate Level Mission, and it is not uncommon to encounter a wave of Illusion Beast or even World Master's Illusion Beast.

It's impossible to achieve this with just his own strength. I just wonder... does His Highness rely on Auxiliary Life or technological weapons?

He couldn't even imagine it.

Lin Yan not only relied on his own martial prowess, but also successfully killed World Lord Third Stage without even using his strongest abilities.

The White-robed Protector respectfully led Lin Yan towards the Palace Cluster at the foot of Demon Mountain.

Inside a palace.

"Your His Highness Lin Yan, every 10,000 Black Token can be exchanged for a huge reward, which will be personally given to you by the 'King Tian Yu' stationed here by the Virtual Universe Company."

Yi Chang respectfully said, "I will go and inform King Tian Yu right now. Please wait a moment, Your His Highness Lin Yan."

"Okay." Lin Yan nodded with a smile.

King Tian Yu.

Taking the Dangerous Level mission "Viska Star" that Lin Yan completed before as an example, the Super Existence stationed there was "Venerable Xuan Ri". The "Blood Luo World" in the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm was personally guarded by "Lord of Heavenly Eclipse Palace", the top Universe Overlord of the human race.

There are quite a few cultivation worlds where Universe Venerable reside.

As for the Demon Mountain, which is a "Desperate Level Mission", it is guarded by a Feng Wang level Immortal, which is unique in the case of Desperate Level Mission.

Firstly, because "Demon Mountain" wasn't too dangerous, and secondly, because this "King Tian Yu" was indeed Super Existence that ordinary people couldn't compare to.

Although "Immortal God" is a general term, the difference between them at this level is truly terrifying. The Law Comprehension at the Tongtian Bridge 10th floor is comparable to that of the most ordinary immortal, while the Tongtian Bridge 20th floor is still an immortal, but the difference is like heaven and earth.

Even among the King level Immortal, there are distinctions of rank, and a very small number of them are even comparable to ordinary Universe Venerable.

Invincible Feng Wang!

For example, Luo Feng's teacher True Yan King, and King Tian Yu, who is stationed in "Demon Mountain" by the Virtual Universe Company!

"I once heard King Tong Nan teacher and True Yan King mention that King Tian Yu is proficient in the two laws of 'space' and 'time'. He is Super Existence who cultivates the 'Universe Chaos Stele'. Even if True Yan King personally confronts him, he will not be able to gain the upper hand. He has an extremely high status in the Virtual Universe Company."

The Mu Xing Country Lord rarely discussed these things with him, because even if True Yan King and the others had reached the Universe Venerable, they were still incredibly far from the Mu Xing Country Lord's level, let alone now.

However... back in Chaos City, when I was cultivating under the guidance of King Tong Nan teacher and True Yan King, I heard them mention many powerful figures, among whom King Tian Yu was highly regarded.

Such a person is already legendary.

A moment later.

After the young man in white robes, Yi Chang, announced his arrival, he returned. Lin Yan followed him to a magnificent palace that was hundreds of thousands of kilometers high.

Almost half of the palace's outer wall is carved with a strange-looking bird with three pairs of wings, three eyes, and a crown-like plume on its head.

In particular, one of its vertical eyes seemed to have seen through time and space, which was terrifying.

"Huh?" Lin Yan was taken aback.

The young man in white robes Yi Chang, noticed his unusual behavior and asked with some confusion, "What's wrong, Your Highness?"

"It's nothing," Lin Yan shook his head.

He glanced at the carving of the strange bird one more time before looking away.

"Isn't this carving the deity 'Kanluosi' worshipped by the Feathered Race?" Lin Yan pondered to himself, "Could it be that the King Tian Yu... was born in the 'Cloud City' of that Original Secret Realm?"

He had previously carried out the "Cloud City" mission, where he spent a considerable amount of time, during which he also created Life Puppet of a Feathered Race at the World Lord level and explored his memories.

These strange birds are the deities worshipped by the Feathered Race, known as "Kanluosi." In fact, Kanluosi is not a mythical deity, but a real Special Lifeform.

In the treasure vault, you can even buy the Immortal level "Kanluosi" feather, a treasure with special abilities, priced at 12 million points.

I never expected to see this here.

"That makes sense." Lin Yan pondered. "If the natives of the Nine Star Sea can join the Virtual Universe Company by breaking through Demon Mountain, other worlds may not be without similar opportunities. The Feathered Race are born to be favored by the Law of Light and have extremely strong talents, making them far superior to the natives of the Nine Star Sea."

Before he could think about it any further...

"Your Highness, it's right here. I won't be able to accompany you any further," said Yi Chang, the young man in white robes, standing outside the palace.

"Yes, thank you." Lin Yan nodded.

He walked forward alone.

"Whoosh!"

The guards outside the palace, dressed in Golden Armor, immediately made way. There were over a thousand guards in total, including ten Immortal God.

Such a grand display surprised even Lin Yan. Although there was a world of difference between Ordinary Immortal and powerful figures like King Tian Yu, they were still Immortal God and should have their own pride. It would be difficult for them to have someone guard their door.

Lin Yan entered the first main hall of the Feathered Emperor Hall. The main hall was mainly in two colors: gold and black, and it was extremely majestic.

Looking into the distance, he saw the dazzling figure sitting on the throne, and the figures sitting on both sides below the hall.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Yan flew over swiftly and arrived in front of the main hall, bowing respectfully. "Greetings, King Tian Yu!"

"Lin Yan?" The dazzling figure on the throne responded. He had long golden hair, and one pair of eyes was azure blue. However, the vertical eye between his eyebrows was golden, and his eyes looked down.

That natural nobility was like that of a born emperor.

On either side of the main hall sat 24 people, each with a different appearance—some tall and imposing, some alluring, and some cold and stern. Lin Yan vaguely judged that they should all be Immortal God at the Marquis level.

"Take out your 10,000 Black Token." King Tian Yu's azure eyes looked down at the tiny figure below.

"Yes."

With a thought, Lin Yan took out 10,000 Black Token from his Space Ring.

"Collecting 10,000 Black Token will earn you a reward. This is a rule that existed in Demon Mountain before I did," King Tian Yu said calmly. "I can give you three reward options; you can choose any one of them."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The 24 powerful Immortal God sitting on either side couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment. Although they were somewhat puzzled, no one dared to utter a sound.

Successfully collecting 10,000 Black Token is certainly rare, but some Cosmic level geniuses also have powerful trump cards, and the number of times they have been seen over the years is by no means small.

But the King Tian Yu of the past had never shown such magnanimity; he would simply bestow a reward and that was it, without even giving the person a second glance.

Lin Yan was somewhat surprised to receive such treatment; it was an unexpected delight.

He continued to listen to King Tian Yu speak.

"The first item is 'Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal,' weighing approximately 2.3 tons."

King Tian Yu on the throne slowly said, "Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal is a very precious G-class metal. After you enter the Immortal realm, you can create the most suitable weapon for yourself according to your own secret techniques. This is a precious material for making weapons."

As the words were spoken, a black, liquid metal that appeared to shimmer with starlight appeared out of thin air, resembling mercury, only the size of a fist, and floated in the main hall.

Lin Yan's eyes lit up. Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal is a very precious metal even among G-grade materials. It takes an extremely long time to form and is a valuable material for manufacturing time-based weapons.

This reward is quite substantial.

"The second item is the 'Luo Fu Lu Pan'," King Tian Yu continued. "This is a flying device for Mental Master, and it is considered one of the most excellent and precious flying weapons used by Immortal God, with astonishing power."

"With it, your chances of survival will be higher."

Wow!

A strangely shaped gray stone disc floats next to the Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal.

This stone disc is about three meters long and half a meter wide, with incredibly complex naturally formed patterns on it. The intricate patterns in the center of the disc form the shape of a flying bird.

Lin Yan glanced at it a few more times. The Luo Fu Lu Pan is a kind of stone disc that is naturally formed in the universe. Apart from a very few who are Marquis-level Immortal, most of those who possess it are King level Immortal.

However, since he already possessed the Star Wings, he naturally didn't consider it, as the Star Wings were superior to it and had a significant price difference.

"The third item is the 'Yongluo Armor'," said King Tian Yu on the throne. "Yongluo Armor is a type of armor favored by Immortal God. It has excellent defensive power. If used by First Stage World Lord Level, it can withstand non- Soul Attack from those below the immortal level without sustaining any damage."

"Since you are both Mental Master and highly skilled in close combat, you naturally need to pay attention to Material Defense. This armor is more suitable for you."

"These three rewards are all priced around 500,000 Hun Yuan Unit. You may choose any one of them." The dazzling figure on the throne looked down.

The other King-level Immortal on both sides of the main hall were all shocked at this moment.

The so-called huge reward is actually within a certain limit set by the Virtual Universe Company. Normally, they can just give out a similar reward and that's it.

The three rewards that King Tian Yu offered this time were not only incredibly valuable, but also seemed to have been carefully considered for Lin Yan's benefit, and were all very suitable for Lin Yan.

And--

Don't be fooled by the fact that King Tian Yu says it costs 500,000 Hun Yuan Unit. Given his status within the Virtual Universe Company, he receives extremely high discounts on purchases, making the actual value far exceed 500,000 Hun Yuan Unit.

"The Luo Fu Lu Pan is useless to me, so I won't choose it." Lin Yan pondered for a moment. "As for the Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal, even if I get it, I can only keep it for later; it has no use now."

"But in the future, I will never lack a piece of G-class metal, so there is really no need for it."

"As for the Yongluo Armor... this is a battle armor that Immortal God would compete for. Its defensive power is quite considerable, and this battle armor does not conflict with the Plant Lifeform, so it is quite good."

Actually.

Although the three were considered to be of equal value by King Tian Yu, considering the principle that things are valued for their rarity, the value of the Yongluo Armor was the lowest among the three, and the most precious was the Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal.

This is because these rare metals are monopolized by Super Existence, and under such a supply and demand relationship, prices naturally rise.

However, for King Tian Yu, there was no difference.

Lin Yan didn't care. He felt that with his abilities, it wouldn't be long before he had authority comparable to that of the King Tian Yu. The inflated value of those immortals from the outside world was meaningless to him.

"King Tian Yu, I would like to choose the third reward, 'Yongluo Armor'," Lin Yan said respectfully.

He was well aware of his own situation; he was extremely powerful in both soul and will, and possessed the incredibly powerful Soul Defense Secret Technique, the "Heavenly Demon Bell." In truth, his greatest advantage was his ability to withstand Soul Attack.

Since that's the case.

Material Defense should naturally be taken seriously.

Moreover, he still has two Desperate Level Mission to complete, Yongluo Armor can be useful right now.

Upon hearing this, King Tian Yu showed a slightly different expression.

Lin Yan couldn't possibly be unaware that the price of Barium Brilliance Corrosive Crystal was more than twice that of Yongluo Armor in the outside world, yet he still made this choice.

His mind raced, and he quickly figured out the reason.

Clearly, he didn't care about such a "petty gain" at all. A mere Cosmic Level Nine guy could remain indifferent to millions of Hun Yuan Unit.

"Ha ha..."

King Tian Yu in the main hall rarely laughed, "Since it's decided, then this Yongluo Armor is yours."

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Whoosh!"

The strangely shaped armor, shimmering with a faint blue light, that floated above the main hall instantly traversed space and appeared directly in front of Lin Yan.

This is an application of the Space Law of "teleportation".

Among these 24 Immortal God, Marquis Po Yu frowned slightly upon seeing this scene, thinking to himself, "What kind of magic does Lin Yan possess that even Lord King Tian Yu treats him so well?"

When Lin Yan came to Demon Mountain.

The fact that King Tian Yu specially arranged for a King-level Immortal to greet her was already somewhat hard for her to understand, but now he was being so thoughtful and considerate in his reward.

This all seems abnormal.

The 24 Marquis-level Immortal present were all extremely puzzled. What could have possibly caused King Tian Yu to act this way?

Exceptional talent?

But this has nothing to do with King Tian Yu.

A disciple of the Mu Xing Country Lord?

Having followed King Tian Yu for so long, they knew that he was extremely proud by nature and didn't even care about the Universe Country Lord, let alone take the initiative to show goodwill. This was something he would never do.

Then why is that?

"I heard that you recently crossed the Tongtian Bridge 11th floor? That's quite unexpected," King Tian Yu suddenly mentioned from his throne.

Some of the Marquis-level Immortal were still unaware of this news and looked at Lin Yan in shock.

How many years has it been?

So you've already crossed the Tongtian Bridge 11th floor?

This is unheard of!

Lin Yan put the strange armor that faintly glowed with blue light into his Space Ring, and then respectfully said, "Yes, I gained some knowledge during my training in Demon Mountain, which is why I was able to pass the 11th level."

Then.

Lin Yan took a few steps forward, his expression solemn, and respectfully bowed to King Tian Yu on the throne.

"Lin Yan greets King Tian Yu teacher!"

Instantly, that calm voice rang in the ears of the 24 Immortal God at the Marquis level, yet it was as majestic as thunder.

The atmosphere in the main hall froze completely.

They looked at Lin Yan, who was bowing to the King Tian Yu, in shock, their faces filled with disbelief, before turning back to look at the King Tian Yu.

The dazzling figure on the throne looked down at the young figure below and murmured, "Lin Yan."

A rare smile appeared on his face.

"It's really not bad."
