God Tree King
Moment.
Luo and General Jiang Tianchen both had their pupils dilated, and their expressions were somewhat blank as they looked at the young man sitting there with an extraordinary air about him, feeling deeply shocked.
"Your Highness, is what you're saying true?" General Jiang Tianchen's voice trembled slightly, his eyes filled with excitement.
The Time World Lord, Luo, had been kind to him back then, and over the years, Luo had always held General Jiang Tianchen in high esteem.
If he hadn't spent millions of years studying the Time Origin Law, and hadn't been trapped for eight hundred thousand years by fate, Lord Luo's talent wouldn't have led him to this predicament of "hitting his end."
I wish to lend Lord Luo a hand and help him open the Gate of Immortality.
Breaking through from World Master to Immortal.
It is about breaking free from the shackles of life and achieving a leap in the soul... Taking this step means transforming a ten million-year lifespan into Eternal Existence; failing to do so means that when the time comes, the body dies and the soul perishes.
However, it is extremely difficult for World Master to become immortal.
Taking the Ganwu Universe Country as an example, there are millions of World Master, but the number of Immortals under the Qianwu Country Lord's command is only slightly over ten thousand.
It looks like a lot.
However, the lifespan of World Master is ten million years, and they are replaced every ten million years. Immortals, on the other hand, Eternal Existence. After countless years of accumulation, the probability of an immortal being born among the World Master is extremely low.
Although General Jiang Tianchen didn't want to be so absolute about the predicament Lord Luo was in, he was actually quite clear in his heart that the possibility of breaking through the shackles of fate within 20,000 years was extremely slim.
"Of course," the young man replied casually.
For Lin Yan, in his growth process, from leaving Earth to rising in the Virtual Universe Company, there are not many people he can truly remember. Among the people he met in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain, there are only two worth mentioning.
One is "Man Luo," the person in charge of the Black Dragon Mountain Island Slaughter Arena, and the other is "Luo," the Time World Lord.
The former refers to the external members who joined the Black Dragon Mountain branch of the Virtual Universe Company when Lin Yan was at the Stellar level. They were only able to enter the worlds of the Realm Lords in the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield with his permission, thus having the opportunity to obtain the treasures of the Realm Lords of the Divided Light Realm.
And... the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone!
If Man Luo hadn't agreed back then, Lin Yan's growth trajectory would have been different, and he wouldn't have encountered this crucial opportunity.
The latter had little interaction with Lin Yan, but he had helped Hong a lot and was Hong's teacher in the original storyline.
Strictly speaking, this cannot be considered a favor to Lin Yan, but given Lin Yan's current status, taking care of them is just a small matter for him.
Man Luo is Immortal God of the Ganwu Branch, so it's easy for the three ministers to take extra care of him. As for Luo, given his situation, it wouldn't be unreasonable to help him out.
If he cannot become immortal in these 20,000 years, his lifespan will be exhausted, and even the Lord of the Universe will not be able to revive him.
For Lin Yan, this is also a regrettable matter.
The old man opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He stood up, straightened his back, bowed respectfully, and solemnly said, "My help to Hong was but a meager one, while Your Highness's help to me is like a second birth."
"From now on, whatever Your Highness commands, Luo will be at your service!"
General Jiang Tianchen also stood up and bowed respectfully.
For Luo, his life was indeed brilliant enough.
Planetary level have their own domains.
Fearless of life and death, yearning for the path of the strongest, wanting to climb to the pinnacle of life!
He fought in the Giant Axe Arena, winning a thousand consecutive matches and earning the title of "Domain Lord level Giant Axe Warrior". Later, he and his two best friends, Moleiya and Laimengtuo, who also earned the title of "Domain Lord level Giant Axe Warrior", jointly established the Three Axe Mountain Organization.
At that time, the three were led by "Luo" and the other two were his assistants.
Later they became immortals, while Luo remained World Master, not because of limited ability, but because of ambition.
Taking advantage of his World Lord level ability to comprehend laws, he spent millions of years researching the Time Origin Law. If this plan succeeds, once he becomes an Immortal, he will be a super strong among the Immortals, comparable to the Ganwu Universe Country's Three Hundred Marquis.
However, this plan did not come to fruition.
By the time he realized that one must be down-to-earth and not have too much ambition, it was too late, leading to his current predicament.
The Gate of Immortality, just a step away, is like an insurmountable chasm.
How could he not feel bitterness? How could he not feel regret?
"No need for Many Gifts," Lin Yan said with a smile. "I can only offer my help; whether you can open this door or not depends on yourself."
A hint of anticipation flickered in Luo's eyes. "What are Your Highness's thoughts?"
To cross the threshold to immortality, the most important thing is to Law Comprehension, which is not something that others can easily help you with.
For Lin Yan, comprehending the Light Origin Law was a simple matter, but for Luo, it was not so simple.
Lin Yan nodded and said calmly, "I will give you a World Lord level spot to enter the 'Initial Universe' for comprehension. You can enter the Initial Universe for comprehension for three thousand years."
General Jiang Tianchen's eyes widened, and his voice suddenly rose. "The Initial Universe?"
"Commander, this is World Master spot in the Initial Universe! With your abilities, you will definitely become an Immortal!"
His voice was filled with fervor, envy, anticipation, and excitement. More than two hundred years ago, General Jiang Tianchen had participated in a Ganwu Auction, where the final item auctioned was a World Lord level enlightenment spot in the Initial Universe.
The final auction price reached a staggering 37,500 Hun Yuan Unit!
Immortal God usually have to risk their lives to amass enormous wealth. The assets of a normal Immortal God are probably only tens of ten thousand Hun Yuan Units, and... this is assets, not cash!
Despite being a prominent force in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain, Three Axe Mountain's true strength is only a few hundred Hun Yuan Unit at most. As for the other two founders, they are not from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and their influence extends to other starfields.
Moreover, the spots in the Initial Universe have long been controlled by the five giants. Even for individual Universe Country, it is extremely difficult to obtain a single spot; they are highly sought after and cannot be obtained by chance.
This His Highness Lin Yan truly lives up to his reputation as a peerless genius highly valued even within the Virtual Universe Company; he can even decide on the quota for this enlightenment session.
Luo was also deeply moved. "The legendary Initial Universe, even if I die at the end of my life, it would be worth it to be able to go in and take a look."
He had certainly heard of this Initial Universe.
That was the universe in the early stages of the universe's evolution. Although it was not as vast and expansive as the Primordial Universe, and did not have as many races, legend has it that it was easier to comprehend the origin of the universe precisely because the Initial Universe was not perfect.
According to his understanding, the probability of World Lord peak entering the Initial Universe and achieving immortality is more than one in half!
How precious is this opportunity to gain enlightenment?
It was far beyond what a World Lord peak like him, nearing the end of his lifespan, could achieve.
Now, just because he gave some guidance to this friend of His Highness Lin Yan more than two hundred years ago, he has obtained such an opportunity. This encounter makes Luo feel that fate is playing tricks on him.
He felt even more grateful to Lin Yan.
These slots for comprehending the Initial Universe are extremely precious, and naturally, not just anyone can decide on them.
Core Member of the Virtual Universe Company are qualified to enter Chaos City.
The Cosmic level grants them the opportunity to cultivate in Chaos City for approximately 30 years for free, which is the first time Lin Yan and his group went to Chaos City.
At the Domain Lord level, one has the opportunity to cultivate for approximately 300 years in the Chaos City the Initial Universe for free.
At the World Lord level, one has the opportunity to cultivate in Chaos City for approximately 3000 years free of charge.
These are all free; they are privileges reserved for core disciples!
Of course, Domain Lord level gets 300 years of free cultivation, but can certainly cultivate for 500 or 1000 years. The only cost is... the extra time needs to be exchanged for points! Only by passing through the 18th Floor of the Tongtian Bridge can one be qualified to obtain permanent Residence rights in Chaos City.
But this is only the time it takes for oneself to redeem oneself.
Even if other Primal Secret Region Member use more points, they are not qualified to buy a spot to comprehend the Initial Universe, since the Virtual Universe Company is not short of these points.
Aside from the core disciples of the five giants, only a small number of spots will be available through auctions. Apart from that, those who are qualified to obtain these spots are all super strong individuals from the five giant forces.
Although Lin Yan was not a super strong person, he did enjoy the privileges of a super strong person. Although the number of comprehension slots he could obtain was extremely limited, he still spent 20,000 points to buy the World Master slot for "Luo", which would allow him to comprehend in the Initial Universe for three thousand years.
Those who enter Chaos City using these comprehension slots are not qualified to comprehend the Chaos Stele or hunt Chaos Beast, but the manifested Universe Rule can already play a significant role in their comprehension of the laws.
Lin Yan smiled and shook his head, "I gave you this spot to comprehend the Initial Universe so that you could break through to immortality, not so that you could die without regrets."
With a flick of his finger, a cylindrical crystal appeared out of thin air. The surface of the crystal was engraved with complex Law Secret Patterns, and a crystal-clear liquid rippled within it, faintly carrying the aura of the Law of Light.
He said, "There is also this 'Bright Origin Liquid,' which has an improving effect on the body and soul. After you absorb it, your soul will undergo some changes, and your perception of the 'Law of Light' will be clearer."
The cylindrical crystal swept through the air and hovered in front of Luo.
Luo looked at the cylindrical crystal in front of him, and his heart trembled.
He was the World Master millions of years ago. The Ganwu Auction held every three years, and many of the final auction items are beyond his means, but it has certainly broadened his horizons.
He had seen this "Bright Origin Liquid" at one of the auctions, where the price was 27,300 Hun Yuan Unit!
What merits or abilities does he possess?
I used to lament that my fate was playing tricks on me, but now I realize that as long as it's not the last moment, I haven't lost!
How fortunate I am!
No, it wasn't fate that favored him.
Instead, it was the His Highness Lin Yan who stood before them, a figure of immense prestige in the Ganwu Universe Country and even in the 1008 Universe Nations Humanity!
He bowed deeply and said respectfully, "Your Highness's kindness is as heavy as a mountain. Luo will certainly live up to Your Highness's expectations!"
He is hailed as the "Time World Lord," ranking among the top three among the millions of World Master in the Ganwu Universe Country, which is naturally a source of pride for him.
If he still can't break through to immortality even with these resources, he might as well just find a block of tofu and kill himself!
Lin Yan shook his head and smiled nonchalantly, "Lord Luo is a legendary figure in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain. If he can truly enter the Immortal Realm, it will naturally be a cause for celebration."
Why wouldn't I be happy to do it?
Not long after.
Luo and General Jiang Tianchen walked out of the manor and onto the bluestone streets of Ziwei Ancient City. They looked at the majestic and imposing ancient city, which had only been established for two hundred years, yet was already very prosperous.
That brief meeting just now felt like a dream; they felt as if they were still in a dream.
But that wasn't a dream.
It may seem unbelievable, but it's not a dream; it's all real.
"Jiang Tianchen, after I go to the Initial Universe, you will still be in charge of Three Axe Mountain. I need you to do something for me," the old man said softly, his gaze distant.
"My lord, please speak," General Jiang Tianchen said respectfully.
The old man said, "Move the headquarters of Three Axe Mountain to the Canglan Empire. You will be responsible for negotiating the specific location with the Canglan Empire. If it is possible in the Milky Way Galaxy, then choose the Milky Way Galaxy. If not, then choose the adjacent Beta Galaxy."
"What does the military commander mean?" General Jiang Tianchen asked.
"From now on, our Three Axe Mountain will follow the lead of the Canglan Empire," the old man said. "From Three Axe Mountain's perspective, the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's development prospects are far inferior to Your Highness's power. The Canglan Empire is like the rising sun, full of vigor and vitality, and it still needs us now."
"Given His Highness Lin Yan's status, he naturally wouldn't care about a small place like Three Axe Mountain. However, he is Super genius in the universe, and he won't have much time left in the Milky Way Galaxy in the future."
"With my accumulated experience, if I become immortal, although I cannot compare to those Three Hundred Marquises and marquises, I will still be considered a strong one among the Immortal Army Lord."
The old man sighed, "He was willing to pay such a price to help me break through to immortality for what happened back then. I am also willing to die for this kindness today."
The sun is setting.
The streets were bustling with people, and the old man and the man in the dark red battle robe walked into the crowd.
Lin Yan was unaware of this Time World Lord's intentions, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care much.
For him, it was simply a matter of spending tens of thousands of points to help someone he knew get through this crucial hurdle, and he didn't need to give anything in return.
This is mainly because Luo's accumulation is deep enough that it is not difficult for Lin Yan to help him take this step. If it were an ordinary World Master, unless it was a close friend or relative, he would not care.
What's needed then is a treasure of the "Ice Fire Fruit" level, whose value is not much less than that of a major treasure.
Tens of thousands of points are insignificant compared to Lin Yan's wealth, but for Luo, they represent the difference between life and death.
As Lin Yan said, why not do it?
As for Luo becoming immortal, it is unknown when that happened. In the Initial Universe, there were 3,000 years, and in the Primordial Universe, there were 10,000 years. What kind of great power will Lin Yan possess 10,000 years later?
But today's incident reminded him of someone else.
"River".
The original Fensun World Lord.
Lin Yan returned to the quiet room in the main building and shook his head, saying, "When I first heard that the name of the Fensun World Lord was 'He', I wondered if it was related to this Time World Lord... I never expected that I'd never even met him."
Both of them are World Master the Law of Light, from the same era, both from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and their strength far surpasses that of their peers. Even their names are very similar.
However, Lin Yan later learned that although the Fensun World Lord, "He," was born on the Floro Planet of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, he became famous in the Sky Jade Star Domain of the Ganwu Universe Country due to his experiences, rather than in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain.
It's just that my hometown is on the Floro Planet.
He pondered to himself, "There's also the God Tree Secret Treasure... That God Tree King is Peak Feng Wang expert, and he possesses two kinds of Plant Lifeform, both of which are at the High-class Feng Wang."
Now that Lin Yan has his current identity and permissions, he will naturally search for who that "God Tree King" really was.
Among the human race, most of the Universe Country Lord in the 1008 Universe Nations do not have King-level Immortal God under their command. These Feng Wang Immortal God are generally subordinate to super forces at the level of Virtual Universe Company and Giant Axe Arena.
The God Tree King, whose real name is "Lian Zhi", is not a member of the five major forces, nor is he under the command of the Universe Country Lord. He is not even human, but a Lone Walker.
The reason he was able to operate within Human territory was because he had another identity: a formal member of the Hong Alliance.
The Hong Alliance is an alliance formed primarily by humans and a large number of other Alien Race!
It gathers countless super strong people. Only those with at least the power of King level Immortal are qualified to become official members of the "Hong Alliance". Even the positions of attendants and servants are highly sought after by various races, who are vying to send their World Master and Immortals in.
Taking the "Magic Sound Divine General Inheritance" and the "Divine Envoy Inheritance Crystal" as examples, these inheritance slots are not decided by the Virtual Universe Company, nor by the Giant Axe Arena, but by the Hong Alliance.
Of course, the Hong Alliance is dominated by the human race, and those Great Existence of the human race are the ones who truly have the power.
"However, according to information from the Virtual Universe Company, 300,000 years ago, in the Outer Domain Battlefield, in order to seize a treasure, the God Tree King did not hesitate to kill the King Jun Li of the human race. However, the King Jun Li was prepared and activated the Virtual Universe synchronous teleportation."
"Those within the same faction who attacked their comrades were subsequently hunted down by the entire Human Faction!"
"He was besieged in the 'Seventh Starfield Battlefield' of the Outer Domain Battlefield, but the God Tree King took out an 'A-812' Fire God Origin Crystal, which had a power comparable to three times that of Peak Feng Wang Self-destruct, and finally escaped. After that, his whereabouts have been unknown and there has been no news."
"Although we don't know what this treasure is, judging from the [God Tree Secret Treasure], the opportunity level can be determined as 'Hong level', so it might be a very important treasure."
With his authority, he was able to understand the matter clearly.
Great treasures are generally possessed by Universe Venerable. Even Invincible Feng Wang Expert can usually have a few. However, among Peak Feng Wang Expert, those who possess great treasures are extremely rare.
If it truly is a priceless treasure, it is indeed worthwhile for the God Tree King Peak Feng Wang combat power, to abandon the Human Faction and take such a risk.
Moreover, he himself is a Lone Walker, and Hong Alliance is just a relatively loose alliance.
A Peak Feng Wang, unless he has a miraculous encounter, can only have a maximum of several hundred billion Hun Yuan Unit of wealth. Even the worst treasure, if calculated in Hun Yuan Unit, is worth over ten trillion. Normally, it is impossible to convert it into Hun Yuan Unit.
In human societies, the system of measurement is called "Supreme Treasure Points," which is essentially achieved through "barter."
It is only because the human race has the resources to build such a platform.
Using the extremely high-end Fire God Origin Crystal, the God Tree King managed to escape and return to his divine kingdom. However, due to the loss of most of his Immortal Divine Body, he was severely injured and fell into a deep sleep.
If nothing unexpected happens, he will slowly repair his soul while in a deep sleep. The repair will be very slow and will take a very long time, possibly hundreds of millions of years.
Of course, sleeping for hundreds of millions of years is nothing to such a powerful being.
He has never entered the divine realm in the presence of any Immortal God, so naturally no one knows the coordinates of his divine realm. In fact, due to his distrust of humanity, he has never even entered the Virtual Universe within the divine realm.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for anyone to enter his divine kingdom while he is asleep.
However, the unexpected still happened.
Life is unpredictable!
There are always some people who can use cheat codes to defy common sense.
"When I went to the God Tree King's Divine Kingdom, although I obtained the Green Line Devouring Worm, the opportunity that was unlocked was not the Green Line Devouring Worm, but the [God Tree Secret Treasure]. However, obtaining the wealth of this Peak Feng Wang is not easy."
"The 'Purple Chariot Divine Tree' is a defensive Plant Lifeform, while the 'Azure Scale Vine' is an offensive Plant Lifeform form. If you want to enter the God Tree King's temple, you will inevitably face attacks from those two Plant Lifeform forms!"
"Plant Lifeform at the High-class Feng Wang is not much different from a human at the Peak Feng Wang. It seems that this God Tree King has also had some Special Encounters to be able to cultivate these two kinds of Plant Lifeform, as well as the 'A-812' level Fire God Origin Crystal. Even if I were to buy it, it would cost me 12 billion points. The price he paid is probably even higher."
"Perhaps he possesses some treasure that can promote the recovery of his divine body, allowing him to awaken sooner."
Lin Yan pondered.
If the God Tree King were a member of the human race, it wouldn't be wise for him to try and steal his treasure. After all, such a thing might not be able to be kept secret from the human race, and in the end, it would be a losing proposition.
But given this connection, they might as well steal it.
However, given his current abilities, it would be difficult for him to achieve this, and given the interests involved, he cannot seek help from others.
"Let's wait a little longer."
"I will explore this treasure when I am strong enough."
"Moreover, that 'Purple Chariot Divine Tree' is also Plant Lifeform that can be possessed, and High-class Feng Wang... Once I have accumulated enough power, I will make a trip to the God Tree King's Divine Kingdom. It will definitely be a huge gain, and it will be able to directly increase my strength to an astonishing level."
Lin Yan secretly looked forward to it.
Then he sat cross-legged and continued his meditation.
The future may be bright and beautiful, but the path lies beneath our feet.
