Returning to Chaos City

"Very well," the Chaos City Lord nodded.

He readily agreed to Lin Yan's request.

Core Member of the five major powers—those at the Cosmic level, Domain Lord level, and World Lord level— have the opportunity to enter Chaos City for cultivation. Normally, someone like Lin Yan, who has just broken through to the Domain Lord level, would not be allowed to do so.

What are members who have just broken through to the Domain Lord level doing in Chaos City if they haven't even mastered the first three diagrams?

However, there are always exceptions.

The Chaos City Lord was well aware of Lin Yan's current Law Comprehension. He had completely grasped the essence of the Universe Law and, through mastering the first level of "The Primordial Beginning," his Law Comprehension was comparable to that of Marquis.

This is a cultivation path based on the laws of "The Primordial Beginning," which deviates from the "Universe Chaos Stele."

Of course, this deviation is another kind of integration of the Law essence. The Origin Law, different paths lead to the same destination, and there is no bad influence. Now, to comprehend the Universe Chaos Stele once, there is also the effect of mutual verification.

"I'll arrange this for you. Someone will send you to the Initial Universe later," said the Chaos City Lord.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord." Lin Yan bowed respectfully.

Immediately--

Under the arrangement of the Chaos City Lord, Lin Yan, aboard the Virtual Universe Company's spaceship, entered the "Initial Universe" through the Universe Channel at the location of the Original Secret Realm.

The Universe Evolution, and the Initial Universe was a Small Universe in the early stages of evolution. Space Rift can be seen everywhere in the sky, and crystalline threads flow through the crack openings, trying to repair them.

Repairing again and again, cracking again and again, endlessly.

Chaos City is the only ancient city in the entire Initial Universe.

"Boom..."

The oval-shaped spaceship hovered above Chaos City, its hatch open.

"Your His Highness Lin Yan, you are already very familiar with Chaos City, so I will not disturb your freedom of movement. When you need to return to the Original Secret Realm, just contact me directly." The two black-robed Immortal God looked at Lin Yan, and the one in the lead said respectfully.

"Thank you for your help," Lin Yan said with a smile.

"Of course, of course," the two black-robed Immortal God hurriedly replied. "It is my duty."

As core staff members of the Virtual Universe Company, they have extensive contacts and are well-informed, giving them a deeper understanding of Lin Yan's status and position.

Watching Lin Yan into a stream of light and fly out of the hatch.

The two couldn't help but whisper among themselves, "Everyone says that this His Highness Lin Yan is the strongest genius in Human history, a peerless figure. He has only just broken through to the Domain Lord level, yet even the Chaos City Lord values him so highly. Who knows what kind of status he will have in the future!"

"It is said that the more talented a person is, the more arrogant they are. I didn't expect that when I actually met them, they were quite easy to get along with. I still remember an Original Secret Realm World Lord I had contact with before. He acted as if I owed him millions of Hun Yuan Unit."

"That's called magnanimity!"

"A peerless genius! Truly a peerless genius!"

Although they were all Immortal God, seeing this young genius who was only at the Domain Lord level 9, they were quite excited.

In just over a hundred years, Lin Yan has brought so much shock. For many people, Lin Yan is not powerful enough now, but he is already a legendary figure!

Whoosh!

Lin Yan landed lightly on the wide street and looked around. In the distance, on the rooftops of Cultivation Residence, one could see ascetic cultivators sitting cross-legged in meditation. World Master and Immortal God were everywhere, and of course, the vast majority of them were Immortal God.

Just by sensing the aura emanating from them... even if it's the aura of World Master, those World Masters who can cultivate in Chaos City are far stronger than those outside.

"Chaos City, Holy Land for cultivation."

Lin Yan looked up at the crystalline threads and flowing patterns of the cracks in the Chaos sky, and was filled with emotion.

Less than a century after leaving, I returned to this ancient city, which is exactly the same as it was back then.

But he has undergone tremendous changes.

"Cultivating in Chaos City will be much more efficient. Once my Xue Qiao Clone is fully formed, everything I want to do will be much more convenient," Lin Yan thought to himself.

Within Chaos City lies the Chaos Stele and the manifested Laws of Cosmic Operation. In terms of the efficiency of comprehending these laws, it is ten times that of the outside world!

The Time Flow Rate between the Initial Universe and the Primordial Universe is 1:3.28!

Once the Xue Qiao Clone is formed, it will directly transform into Lin Yan and cultivate in seclusion in Chaos City. The clone's consciousness will be integrated with Lin Yan's, so if the clone can see it, Lin Yan can naturally see it as well.

By exploiting this bug, the Xue Qiao Clone 10 years in Chaos City, which allowed Lin Yan to achieve the same cultivation effect as 328 years in the Primordial Universe!

In the past, this sense of temporal disorientation would have greatly affected his consciousness, but now, Lin Yan not only has a strong consciousness, but also an extremely strong understanding of the Time Law, so this problem is naturally nonexistent.

This time, when he came to Chaos City, he placed the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone in the Original Secret Realm.

It takes 7 days to comprehend the Chaos Stele, but through this method, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone was able to comprehend it in 21 days.

Lin Yan walked along the wide street with anticipation in his heart. His first destination was not the City Lord's Mansion to study the Chaos Stele, but to visit his King Tong Nan teacher.

The help that King Tong Nan provided him back then was considerable, and since he calls him "teacher," he must not forget this kindness.

He was walking towards the residence of King Tong Nan when he suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the rooftop of a Cultivation Residence in the distance.

"Um?"

Then a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

On the rooftop in the distance.

A bald young man in a white robe slowly practiced his moves, occasionally looking up at the sky to observe the workings of the Universe Law.

The white-robed, bald youth held a Black Battle Saber, its surface crackling with electric snakes. The War Blade appeared to be moved with minimal, slow motion, but Lin Yan, with his profound Time Origin Law, could easily discern its subtleties.

"When I left Earth, Thunder God hadn't even crossed the threshold of the Lightning Origin Law, but now, his understanding of the Time Origin Law is already quite profound." Lin Yan smiled as he watched this scene.

On the rooftop of this Cultivation Residence, the white-robed, bald young man who is meditating and comprehending is none other than the Thunder God!

While Lin Yan was still in the Purgatory Divine Kingdom, he learned in the Virtual Universe that Hong and Thunder God had passed the Virtual Universe Company's assessment and successfully joined the company's Core Layer.

Judging by the time, we haven't been in Chaos City for very long.

Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence that he ran into them not long after arriving in Chaos City.

"Thunder God!" Lin Yan walked to the foot of the Cultivation Residence, looked up at the white-robed, bald young man on the rooftop who was completely absorbed in his swordsmanship, and called out softly.

"Um?"

Thunder God on the rooftop snapped out of his daze, glanced down, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Whoosh!

He jumped straight off the rooftop.

"Lin Yan, what are you doing here?" Thunder God asked incredulously.

He has only been in Chaos City for half a year. Logically speaking, Lin Yan should not be here at all.

"Of course it's a privilege!" Lin Yan's mood brightened a bit, and he laughed mischievously a few times. "Don't you understand the value of being called the strongest genius in history?!"

"I understand!" Thunder God said with a smile. "When Brother Hong and I first came to Chaos City, the receptionist didn't know we knew you. We heard your name from him many times."

That's true.

After all, it hadn't been long since this happened. Hong and Thunder God were among the newcomers who were exceptionally admitted after Lin Yan, so the receptionist naturally couldn't help but use Lin Yan as an example.

Who has ever seen anything like this before!

Let's talk about how well it can hold the fort.

Thunder God was also filled with emotion. Even though they had heard some news from Lin Yan and Luo Feng in the Ganwu Secret Realm, Lin Yan and Lin Yan were in the core of the human race, while the Ganwu Universe Country was just a small place. In the end, it was difficult for them to truly understand what was happening.

But now that I have truly arrived in Chaos City, I have witnessed the true brilliance and wonder of the universe, and I know what kind of treasure the Chaos Stele is. I also understand how awe-inspiring Lin Yan's achievements have been over the years!

"I can't believe this happened." Lin Yan was taken aback, then asked, "Where's Hong?"

Thunder God pointed to an empty Cultivation Residence next to him and said, "That's the Cultivation Residence that Brother Hong chose, but he's gone outside the city to kill Chaos Beast now."

"Hmm." Lin Yan nodded, then asked about something more serious, "Which level of the Tongtian Bridge have you reached so far?"

Thunder God scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "I'm on the second level. Brother Hong just passed the third level a while ago."

He arrived full of confidence, eager to show off his skills on the Tongtian Bridge, but...

Good heavens, this Tongtian Bridge is so difficult to cross!

How exactly did Lin Yan manage to get past the 15th floor?

It's important to know that Lin Yan and Luo Feng spent 30 years in Chaos City, while they spent 100 years in the Ganwu Secret Realm. That's equivalent to 200 years, and he himself is only at the second level of the Tongtian Bridge!

This is even with the support of the Ganwu Secret Realm for cultivation and the substantial dividends from the Jiuzhou Company to aid in the training.

It made him question the meaning of life.

Lin Yan nodded. To be honest, the fact that Hong and Thunder God have reached their current Law Comprehension already shows that they have worked very hard.

Take my own Genius Battle as an example. In 30 years, only I, Bolan, Luo Feng and Rong Jun have been able to pass the fourth level. Sometimes, the overall level of the newcomers is so low that not a single one has passed the fourth level!

Thirty years in Chaos City is equivalent to 300 years in the outside world.

Hong and Thunder God's foundation was already inferior to those of geniuses like Genius Battle, and in terms of talent, they were far inferior to Ai Chen and Uka.

To comprehend the laws, one must have a very high degree of comprehending them... Some people comprehend them hundreds or thousands of times faster than others. For example, Hong and Thunder God have a decent level of Law Comprehension, but it is only considered decent.

While a high level of mental cultivation can be improved by two or three times with a little assistance, the difference in comprehension of laws between a genius and a mortal remains significant.

Our current level of development is inseparable from resources.

However, their real period of exertion is yet to come. Their cultivation journey may be long and arduous, but that's not a big deal. They can just cultivate step by step.

If one achieves immortality but remains stagnant for billions of years, that would be even more worrisome.

"Has Hong already passed the third level?" Lin Yan thought for a moment and then laughed. "I'll call him back now, haha... Since I've run into him, of course I'll help you out."

"What help do you need?" Thunder God asked, puzzled.

Lin Yan mysteriously. "You'll find out soon enough."

Chaos City, at the King Tong Nan's Mansion.

This is a building with an unusual style, where light and darkness seem to be in perfect harmony.

"Teacher, teacher!" Lin Yan shouted as he walked inside.

Whoosh!

A gaunt figure dressed in a white robe suddenly appeared in front of him, his eyes tightly closed, his pale face showing some surprise.

"Lin Yan?" King Tong Nan asked, "What are you doing in Chaos City?"

"I took advantage of the opportunity to meet with the Chaos City Lord to express my desire to come to Chaos City to study the Chaos Stele, so that's why I came here." Lin Yan walked over with a smile. "The first thing I thought of when I came here was to visit my teacher."

Lin Yan didn't come empty-handed either; he was carrying a case of precious fruit wine.

Before he could even get close...

Suddenly, a burly ape-man clad in golden armor popped his head out. He sniffed the air, looked at the box Lin Yan was carrying, and his eyes practically lit up. "Ancient Spirit Marrow?"

"You're Tong Nan!"

True Yan King was extremely envious and looked at Lin Yan, saying, "You're incredibly rich, kid. This box must contain over a million Hun Yuan Unit. How come I feel like I'm poorer than you?"

That's enough to buy several star systems. He's a connoisseur of wine, and he wouldn't normally be so extravagant.

Lin Yan was immediately delighted.

He wouldn't have dared to say such a thing before, but now he might actually be richer than the True Yan King.

Leaving aside any Origin Supreme Treasure, the Chaos City Lord had previously given him a top-tier Heavy Treasure Armor, which was immeasurable by any number of Hun Yuan Unit.

He said hypocritically, "No, no, you are Invincible Feng Wang with a great reputation, while I am just a domain lord."

The True Yan King felt even more pain in his heart.

This guy is inhuman! He just made a cut and then rubbed salt in it!

Lin Yan smiled and put down the box of Ancient Spirit Marrow, then said, "Could I not prepare it for you?"

He then took out a box of Cold Immortal Dew from his Space Ring and said, "Before I came, I even found out your preferences."

"No, no, no." True Yan King quickly waved his hand. He was just joking. Although he had given Lin Yan a lot of guidance, he really couldn't accept such a generous gift.

Lin Yan has been spending hundreds of billions lately, and a box containing millions of Hun Yuan Unit was already a result of his restraint after careful consideration.

Seeing this, he said, "I've already taken it, so how can I take it back? I'll just leave it with the teacher."

King Tong Nan initially intended to refuse, but after thinking it over, he decided against it.

They went into the main hall and sat together. King Tong Nan took out a bottle of Ancient Spirit Marrow and a bottle of Cold Immortal Dew from the box and poured the wine.

The three of them drank and chatted.

"I Zhen Yan famous for countless eons, and I have seen a lot," True Yan King said with a smile. "But a monster like you, kid, I've never even imagined, let alone seen one!"

He laughed loudly, "You can even master the 'Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body' and the 'Primordial Beginning'? That's outrageous! You don't know, the sect leader of our Virtual Universe Company's Nine Yu lineage, the Flame Dragon King, also cultivates the 'Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body.' When he saw you break through the Tongtian Bridge, his eyes practically turned green with envy!"

"Haha, that's hilarious."

Lin Yan felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing his expression.

I had a bad feeling.

Could it be that after that, he often teased the Flame Dragon King about this? No matter how you look at it, it feels like something the True Yan King would do.

Lin Yan remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he thought, "If you knew about the 'Black Hole Sacred Body' I'm currently cultivating, you'd be green with envy."

The Divine Body Amplitude is even more difficult to increase than the Soul Amplitude, and it is also closely related to the Life Gene Level. However, it is only a matter of time before Lin Yan increases his amplitude to 20 times that of the first level.

After all, it would take a lot of time to completely absorb more than 2 billion cultivation resources.

They drank and chatted happily.

After chatting for a while, Lin Yan finally brought up the important matter.

"Teacher, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with." Lin Yan looked at King Tong Nan.

King Tong Nan smiled faintly and said, "Speak."

Lin Yan said, "I have two friends who recently entered Chaos City and chose the 'Cosmic Extreme Chaos Stele'. They are both martial artists. Could you give me some advice on finding a master?"

"I never say anything against my conscience, and I don't even praise Bolan much, but they do have extraordinary qualities and I have a very close relationship with them, so I still hope to find a more suitable teacher."

After Tongtian Bridge, you can listen to lectures from those Grandmaster. If you want to become a Grandmaster's disciple, then for your first lecture... you must choose to listen to the lecture under that Grandmaster as a sign of respect, and then ask to become his disciple!

If you obtain the Grandmaster's consent, then you have successfully become his disciple.

Taking on a master is a very important matter for any cultivator.

Having a super strong mentor makes cultivation much smoother. However, although it is a two-way selection process, those super strong mentors can understand the disciple's situation clearly, while the disciple only has some very basic information.

There are definitely tricks to finding the most suitable teacher.

That is... calling for reinforcements!

King Tong Nan was a member of the Zhou Ji lineage and had spent countless years cultivating in the Chaos City. He was naturally very familiar with the sect leaders of the Zhou Ji lineage. It would be easy for him to offer some suitable advice, let alone help with any planning.

It was a minor matter for King Tong Nan, but it was extremely crucial for Hong and the Thunder God.

Upon hearing this...

"Wait a minute, Tong Nan go to the Tongtian Bridge to watch their battle video." True Yan King stroked his chin and tugged at his golden beard.

Lin Yan nodded. "Mm."

A moment later.

"This is easy to handle." True Yan King took a sip of wine and patted his chest.

King Tong Nan nodded slightly. "Although his Origin Law Comprehension is not high, his foundation is very solid and his combat talent is also very high, enabling him to unleash extremely strong combat power in battle."

"Although you and Luo Feng may not have the same talent and may not be able to follow the path of analyzing the Law essence, you are still considered a promising talent for our 'Cosmic Extreme School'. You can leave this matter to me."

King Tong Nan readily agreed.

True Yan King: "Haha, when has this kid ever had bad taste!"

Lin Yan also smiled slightly.

As a pioneer of Earth Humanity, he fulfilled his responsibilities admirably.

This tender sprout finally broke through the pebbles and received more rain and light.
