The Original Tongtian Mountain divided the mountain into three passes: the foot of the mountain, the middle of the mountain, and the top of the mountain.

Each level is a joint attack by a "Minotaur Warrior, Ape-man Mental Master, and Snake-woman Illusionist." Even if the attacker is slightly weaker than the challenger, the three can cooperate and complement each other to win.

Only by fighting your way from the foot of the mountain to the summit and killing all the guards can you successfully pass through Tongtian Mountain.

Even at the foot of the mountain, only a very few people can pass through, while the number of guards on the mountainside is 10 times that at the foot of the mountain, and the number of guards on the mountaintop is 10 times that on the mountainside!

Therefore, it is like an insurmountable chasm.

At this time.

"Haha, it's been a long time since I've seen such an interesting opponent! White-skinned Ape, five women, let's make our move!" The Minotaur roared excitedly, brandishing his terrifying Giant Axe.

"Seventh level of the Extreme Divine Weapon, interesting." The lean Ape-man Mental Master chuckled, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the black dragon in the sky that seemed to have come from the Netherworld Kingdom.

Wow!

The Black Bamboo Pole behind him suddenly flew out and instantly stretched out. The entire bamboo pole had nine sections, each of which detached instantly, with countless threads connecting and running through them.

Whoosh!

The hazy phantom darted out instantly, as fast as lightning, and like a venomous snake, it lunged directly at Lin Yan.

"Your His Highness Lin Yan, I hope you will show me mercy." The Snake Woman's charming voice seemed to captivate hearts, and a flash of purple light appeared in her watery eyes. An invisible Soul Attack emanated from her entire being.

Lin Yan neither dodged nor avoided the situation, but simply smiled slightly.

"Hold head high..."

With a long roar, the black dragon swung its tail and charged forward with a roar!

The seventh level of the Extreme Divine Weapon, "Candle Dragon," is an advanced version of the "Third Stage of the Starry World" and represents a more perfect state of the "Starry World."

The power of the two Origin Law of the universe— the Time Origin and the Light Origin —is subtly combined through the Extreme Divine Weapon, communicating with the might of heaven and earth. Under Lin Yan's control, the speed increases and becomes more erratic, distorting the surrounding time as if to purify everything.

"Boom..."

The black dragon instantly traversed several kilometers, its body slamming violently into the Minotaur Warrior.

The Minotaur's expression was solemn as he raised the terrifying Giant Axe in his hand, which instantly transformed into a yellowish-brown axe blade.

Hiss...

Where the axe blade passes, it leaves marks in the space.

"Boom!"

It's like Mars!

The black dragon crashed directly into the earthen-yellow axe blade. The powerful impact was transmitted through the Giant Axe, sending the Minotaur Warrior flying backward.

The lean ape-man and the Snake Woman's expressions changed drastically. "How is this possible!"

At that moment, the Minotaur's body, which was in mid-air, exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

At the same moment... the ape-man's telekinetic weapon "Arc Snake" transformed into black light had already reached Lin Yan. Lin Yan remained calm and gently extended his right hand.

In the Lightning Flash!

Lin Yan actually grabbed the black light with his bare hand. A dark red light flashed in his hand, and the hunched, lean ape-man in the distance trembled and spat out a mouthful of blood. "How can it be so strong!"

He hurriedly transmitted his voice and roared, "Five women, attack his soul!"

The Snake Woman stood aside, completely dumbfounded, her face pale. "No, the Soul Attack has absolutely no effect."

Wow!

The black dragon was as fast as lightning; in the blink of an eye, it was in front of them.

"Die!"

The sharp, enormous claws instantly tore the ape-man apart, and with a sweep of its tail, the Snake Woman had no chance to resist.

The battle ended instantly.

"This checkpoint at the foot of the mountain is really easy." Lin Yan walked straight up the mountain. This checkpoint at the foot of the mountain posed no difficulty for him, and the guards on the mountainside were also easily defeated by Lin Yan.

"Call..."

Lin Yan flew upwards along the towering, Original Tongtian Mountain, and it took him a long time to reach the summit.

Clouds and mist swirled around the mountaintop, where the Minotaur lay snoring loudly, while the ape-man drank heartily from a large barrel of fine wine, and in the distant pool, the Snake Woman frolicked in the water.

When Lin Yan landed on the mountaintop, the three gatekeepers simultaneously opened their eyes and looked over, scrutinizing Lin Yan.

"Your His Highness Lin Yan." The Snake Woman in the pool sighed softly and slowly swam out of the pool. She was only covered by a thin veil, and her upper body was faintly visible under the veil, with even a hint of blush on her skin.

"It's a pleasure to see you." The Snake Woman looked at Lin Yan with tender affection, her voice soft and soothing.

"Yes, it has been far too long since we've seen anyone else," the Minotaur said in a deep voice, his face etched with the marks of time.

"Your His Highness Lin Yan, after millions of epochs, you are the first challenger we have ever seen." The ape-man also stood up.

These gatekeepers are "intelligent" systems created by the Virtual Universe System. This Virtual Universe System is incredibly powerful, capable of simulating various laws, such as "Slaughter Arena" or "training grounds," and can even provide the opponents that cultivators need according to their requirements.

The guardians of these three Tongtian Mountain were created to perform the duty of guarding the gates. These intelligent beings have existed for an incredibly long time and have become "Intelligent life form," also possessing emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

A glint of light flashed in the lean ape-man's eyes. "Since the establishment of the Tongtian Mountain Plane, Your Highness is the youngest challenger we have ever seen. Your talent is truly amazing, but let's stop here."

"I just hope your strength won't disappoint me," Lin Yan said softly.

"As Your Highness wishes," the Snake Woman said softly with a smile.

With just a smile, he had already unleashed Mental Illusion. The ethereal mental power directly penetrated into Lin Yan's sea of consciousness. At the same time, an arc-shaped stream of light shot out from behind the lean ape-man, also slashing towards Lin Yan.

Within the sea of consciousness.

"Clang!" A Star River Great Bell served as a tight defense for the Soul Core, resounded loudly the moment the mental power invaded the sea of consciousness.

A series of tremors suddenly surged in his sea of consciousness. The moment the ethereal mental power touched him, it seemed to melt away like snow, completely dissipating.

"Hmph!" Lin Yan snorted coldly. Even with his willpower alone, he could not be affected by the Snake Woman's illusion, let alone the Soul Defense technique, the Heavenly Demon Bell.

Compared to the passive defense of "The Tower of Void," although it also has a tight defense of the Soul Core and is difficult to affect the depths of consciousness, consciousness can still be affected by the illusion.

The ethereal psychic power of the Snake Woman before them was so strong that even the Heavenly Demon Sound Wave of the Heavenly Demon Bell could not withstand it, so there was no question of it being affected by illusions.

"This won't hurt me." Lin Yan's eyes flashed with a cold light, his gaze sharp as lightning. "Use your full strength!"

Boom!

The Gem Sword that was floating in front of him instantly disintegrated and then transformed into a black dragon.

"Hold head high..."

The faint roar of a dragon filled the heavens and earth.

"Clang!" The black dragon instantly reached its speed limit, even distorting time slightly, and crashed directly into the arc-shaped light. Both the arc-shaped light and the black dragon trembled violently and were thrown away at the same time.

"Buzz buzz buzz..." The black dragon trembled slightly, and under Lin Yan's mental control, it reformed.

"Even though this is a body in Virtual Universe, and it doesn't rely on amazing Soul Amplitude, I have already comprehended 108 kinds of Time essence and have been recognized by the Light Origin Law. I can easily unleash the seventh level of the Extreme Divine Weapon, 'Candle Dragon'... Yet, compared to this ape-man, I still cannot gain the upper hand."

Lin Yan's heart stirred slightly. "No wonder the Original Tongtian Mountain is so difficult."

A multitude of thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and a simple, Black Broadsword appeared in his hand. In a flash, his figure moved like a ghost, rushing towards the Minotaur Warrior with lightning speed.

Meanwhile, Lin Yan used the Extreme Divine Weapon to entangle the ape-man. As for the Snake Woman, facing him, she could only question her existence and posed no threat to Lin Yan.

"Good timing."

The Minotaur laughed loudly, raising the bloody Giant Axe in his hand high. The Time, Space as the Giant Axe swept through the most precise gap in the spatial ripples, leaving a clearly visible axe mark in the air.

Lin Yan's eyes were icy cold, and a dark sword light flashed instantly. The domineering sword light seemed to devour everything and crashed directly into the Minotaur's bloody Giant Axe.

"Clang!" A loud bang was heard.

"How could the impact be so strong?" The Minotaur's expression changed drastically, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. He immediately changed his move, and with a low roar, he swung his axe, causing huge axe phantoms to appear in the surrounding Universe Space.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

"Aaaaaah..." The Minotaur's eyes were filled with madness as he roared angrily and swung his Giant Axe, constantly exchanging blows with Lin Yan.

They launched dozens of attacks almost instantly.

Meanwhile, in the distance, the black dragon, under Lin Yan's control, was locked in a fierce battle with the Ape-man Mental Master. The Snake Woman's attempts to attack Lin Yan's Soul Attack failed several times, and a Black Light Wheel with snake-shaped patterns appeared before her, helping the ape-man escape the predicament.

However, as an illusionist, she was far less adept at manipulating telekinetic weapons than the Controller, and therefore did not pose much of a threat to Lin Yan.

War!

With the Jingxuan Sword in hand, Lin Yan's sword light contained absolute dominance and absolute will, just like Black Hole Rooting in the starry sky, devouring everything!

Under Lin Yan's suppression, the Minotaur kept retreating, no longer showing its previous ferocity.

"Let's end this." Lin Yan's eyes flashed like lightning, knowing that the Minotaur was no longer able to contend with him.

"Laugh!"

The sword light was fierce!

It carries endless malevolent energy!

The Black Broadsword, like a sharp black thread, whistled through the Minotaur's body!

The Minotaur swung his Giant Axe in an attempt to defend himself, but he was no match for it. Countless powerful sword energies instantly shattered his body into pieces.

Minotaur, die!

"Next, it's your turn!" Lin Yan's eyes flashed with killing intent, and his figure moved as fast as lightning, directly rushing towards the ape-man and Snake Woman in the distance.

In fact, the outcome of this battle was predetermined.

Clouds and mist swirled around the summit of the Original Tongtian Mountain. Lin Yan looked down at the three corpses and thought to himself, "Indeed, with my mastery of the Extreme Divine Weapon and the Nine Vortex Sword, I am already capable of passing through the Cosmic Level Original Tongtian Mountain."

In this battle, Lin Yan not only did not use the astonishing Soul Amplitude of the "Desireless" secret technique, but he also did not use the "Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body".

"Normally, comprehending the Law essence is comparable to the ability of the twelfth level of the Tongtian Bridge. As for me, I have not only comprehended the 108 kinds of Space essence, but also the Time essence. In terms of Law Comprehension, I can now easily pass through the twelfth level of the Universe Tongtian Bridge."

"With this Law Comprehension, there is no need for any more methods to conquer the Original Tongtian Mountain."

That's right.

Lin Yan has spent thirty years cultivating in seclusion in the Mizong Galaxy, and now he has completely comprehended the Law essence!

This is because the special environment of the Black Hole greatly helps Lin Yan comprehend the Universe Law.

Secondly, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone is already incredibly powerful, and it has also fused with the Beast God's Blood. It can also comprehend the carving of the "Wood Beast God". Under these circumstances, its cultivation efficiency is several times faster than it was back in Chaos City.

In fact.

Nearly ten years ago, Lin Yan had already fully comprehended the Law essence of space. However, his understanding of the Time Law, which he had once been ahead of due to his journey to the "Ancestor God Tomb," was far inferior to that of the Green Line Devouring Insect clone because Lin Yan's true talent was not as good as that of the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone.

In the time that followed, Lin Yan did not delve further into the Space Law, but instead had his Green Line Devouring Worm Clone comprehend the Time Law to help advance his cultivation.

Although the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone's talents lie in "space and wood," the clarity of its Law Sense has been comprehensively improved by fusing the Sacred Artifact Crystal and the Beast God's Blood. In addition, its efficiency in comprehending the Time Law is also quite considerable when its consciousness descends to the Origin Land.

Therefore, recently, Lin Yan finally comprehended the Law essence and reached a new level in his cultivation.

At this moment—

The injuries on the three corpses in front of them disappeared instantly, and they returned to normal. At the same time, the Minotaur, the Snake Woman, and the ape all stood up.

"Congratulations, Your His Highness Lin Yan, you have successfully passed through the Original Tongtian Mountain."

"No human has ever been able to pass through the Tongtian Mountain before the first Qualification Battle. Congratulations, you have broken a new record once again, and it is almost impossible for anyone else to accomplish such a feat."

The three gatekeepers at the summit smiled and respectfully congratulated Lin Yan.

Standing atop the Original Tongtian Mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, Lin Yan looked down upon the endless, desolate land and saw two other low-lying Tongtian Mountain in the distance.

"This is only the first step," he said softly.

Brush!

His figure vanished instantly from the Tongtian Mountain Plane.

Virtual Universe, Original Zone.

Lin Yan sat at his desk, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. "Now I have fully comprehended the 108 essences of the Time Law and Space Law, and I can begin to try cultivating 'The Primordial Beginning'."

He took a black metal book from the bookshelf next to him.

It is the fourth volume of "Black Hole Evolution".

Lin Yan shook his head, thinking to himself, "Once I've used the third opportunity at the Cosmic level, I'll break through to the Domain Lord level directly."

Once he reaches the Domain Lord level, he can exchange some of the treasures he obtained before for points, and then use those points to exchange for follow-up books on "The Chaos Principle" and "Black Hole Evolution." He wasn't in a hurry before, but now it's very necessary.

Moreover, once he reaches the Domain Lord level, his strength will also increase dramatically. For Extreme Divine Weapon, with his Law Comprehension, if he is Domain Lord ninth stage, he can easily unleash the eighth level in the Virtual Universe.

"Wait a little longer." Lin Yan had to cherish this last chance to open Cosmic level opportunity, but he figured it wouldn't be long before it was gone.

"For now, let's focus our energy on 'The Primordial Beginning' and see if we can gain anything from it."

"The Primordial Beginning" is the core secret technique of "Black Hole Evolution". Mastering the first three levels makes one "invincible below the Universe Venerable", and mastering the highest level, the sixth level, makes one comparable to a true Lord of the Universe.

Lin Yan was very interested in this and was determined to cultivate it.

Only those who cultivate both time and space can achieve something in "The Primordial Beginning". According to the book, the first level is the introductory chapter. The ideal state is to fully comprehend the Space essence before attempting to cultivate. This will not only reduce the difficulty of getting started, but also make the power greater after mastering it.

Even so, the difficulty of getting started is still more than a hundred times greater than comprehending the Law essence, which is extremely terrifying.

Lin Yan picked up the long-necked wine bottle on the desk, poured himself a glass of fruit wine, and drank it all in one gulp.

A smile involuntarily appeared on his face, "It will still be some time before we reach 'Prison Realm Mountain'. In the meantime, I will focus my attention on 'The Primordial Beginning' and hope to master it as soon as possible."

He made up his mind and devoted himself to studying the first level of "The Primordial Beginning" in the Virtual Universe.

At the same moment, the higher-ups of the human race had already learned that Lin Yan had broken through the Cosmic Level Original Tongtian Mountain.

This message spread like wildfire throughout the Virtual Universe Company and even among the human population.

The Initial Universe Chaos City of the universe.

The Chaos City Lord, who was sitting cross-legged in the Chaos Ruins, opened his eyes.

His eyes were as vast as the starry sky, as if he were the infinite Universe Law themselves, and the aura of the vast Universe Law permeated this desolate wasteland.

"Having left Chaos City for over fifty years, he actually managed to cross the Original Tongtian Mountain. Such a speed of progress... even if he had fused with the Light Web Crystal prototype and possessed Special Life Clone, it would be impossible for him to accomplish this."

"Lin Yan..."

"According to Mu Xing, he seems to have the favor and preference of the Primal Universe Will. Very well, then let's do as Mu Xing says."

The Chaos City Lord seemed to pierce through infinite space as he sighed softly, "I hope that one day he can become a new pillar of the race."
