Lin Yan's New Teacher?

The Initial Universe, Chaos City.

A bald man in a fiery red battle robe walked through the City Lord's Mansion. He had a faint smile on his face and appeared very serene. Just looking at this bald man... made people Mental Master down, as if they were vaguely merging into the vast and tranquil universe.

The Inner Mansion of the City Lord's Mansion were heavily guarded, and the guards were all Immortal God at a glance.

However, the Immortal God were all vying to be able to guard the gate for the Chaos City Lord; it was something to be proud of.

This is the No.1 entity in the Virtual Universe Company, the true number one leader. Even if he were just a gatekeeper, he wouldn't give any face to those Universe Venerable who come to visit.

Because, in a certain sense, they also represent the face of the Chaos City Lord.

At this moment, the bald man wearing a fiery red battle robe walked directly into the Inner Mansion, and the guards did not stop him at all.

"Greetings, Venerable Guiyi!" The guards all greeted him respectfully.

Venerable Guiyi smiled and nodded, then entered the Inner Mansion. Along the wide corridor, and then a square paved with Chaos rocks, he arrived at a quiet courtyard. Outside the courtyard was a stone tablet with the three characters "Chaos Ruins" on it.

Take a step in.

Boom!

As time and space shifted, he appeared on a vast, desolate continent of ruins, where the corpses of Myriad Races were scattered everywhere, and in the distance, a figure sat cross-legged in meditation.

"Teacher." Venerable Guiyi stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

The figure slowly rose to his feet.

The Dark Red War Armor, with its ancient and intricate design, featured scales and tails that emerged from the battle skirt. Turning to look at him, a pair of fiery red horns framed a fierce face covered in secret patterns. Only his eyes, as vast as the infinite starry sky, captivated the viewer.

The Chaos City Lord smiled and said, "What made you decide to come looking for me?"

"Teacher, do you know that our Virtual Universe Company's genius named 'Lin Yan' has been cultivating in Chaos City in recent years?" Venerable Guiyi bowed and asked.

"I understand." The Chaos City Lord nodded slightly.

Venerable Guiyi paused for a moment, then said, "Regarding Lin Yan, this disciple has some things he would like to say to Master."

"Hmm?" The Chaos City Lord gave him a strange look. "Tell me about it."

My disciple and Lin Yan should have no connection whatsoever.

Venerable Guiyi faced him respectfully and said, "Although I have been in Chaos City and have not paid much attention to the outside world, this peerless genius of our company has repeatedly made amazing moves, so I have paid a lot of attention to him since he came to Chaos City."

"Before, I already found it incredible that he could pass through the 15th level of the Tongtian Bridge at the Cosmic level. But I have found that his current rate of progress seems to be even more terrifying than before. This cannot be explained by the fact that he can comprehend things faster in Chaos City. In the seventh year after entering Chaos City, Lin Yan passed through the 16th level of the Tongtian Bridge and passed through the Domain Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain."

"In the same amount of cultivation time, the fastest geniuses among our human race used to only reach the 11th level!"

"Oh?" the Chaos City Lord murmured.

The third level of the Tongtian Bridge is considered a threshold, and it gets more difficult as you go further.

The difficulty of going from the Fifteenth Floor to the Sixteenth Layer is even greater than that of going from the first to the Fifteenth Floor. Such a rapid pace of progress is truly astonishing.

Moreover, Lin Yan also passed the Domain Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain... The requirements for passing the Domain Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain are much more difficult than the 16th level of the Tongtian Bridge.

Because the opponent on the Tongtian Bridge is only one person, while the three people on the top of Tongtian Mountain are all of equal skill to the guardian of the 16th level of the Tongtian Bridge, namely an illusionist, Mental Master, and a martial artist, there is no way to cheat.

No one doubted that Lin Yan could pass through the Domain Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, but no one expected it to be so fast. He had already achieved this in just a few decades after breaking through to the Domain Lord level.

"Very good." The Chaos City Lord's attitude was very gentle, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

He could roughly guess how Lin Yan had achieved this, but that didn't stop Lin Yan from getting closer and closer to his desired goal.

In his long life, this was the first time he had seen a younger generation bring him such joy.

Venerable Guiyi respectfully said, "Teacher, such a genius has made such amazing progress. As long as he doesn't die young, with the nurturing of our human race, I believe it's only a matter of time before he enters the ranks of the Universe Overlord, and he may even have the opportunity to reach an even higher realm."

"My concern is... if the Mu Xing Country Lord wants to bring his talent to its fullest potential, is he capable of doing so?"

Upon hearing this, the Chaos City Lord immediately understood his thoughts and reached out to press down slightly.

The words of Venerable Guiyi were directly blocked here.

"You mean he should choose a more powerful teacher?" The Chaos City Lord looked at him and asked, "Gui Yi, who do you think is a more suitable candidate?"

In human society, respecting teachers is a very important quality for the strong. Anyone who does not respect teachers will be despised and scorned by all the strong.

If someone dares to betray their master and ancestors, they will be the common enemy of all the strong if discovered!

It's perfectly normal for someone to have a group of teachers as they climb up from weakness to strength, since teachers have limited abilities. So, for the sake of human development, we can't limit each person to having only one teacher, as that would only hinder their talents.

These two are not in conflict.

Venerable Guiyi frowned slightly and said, "The Mu Xing Country Lord is a Universe Overlord of the human race, with an extremely high status. However, the 'Mother Ancestor Chaos Stele' she created seems to have little in common with Lin Yan's own path. It's fine now, but when Lin Yan reaches the World Lord level, he may not be able to provide the most suitable help."

He bowed slightly. "In my opinion, among all the super strong people in the entire human race, Lin Yan is the most suitable to become your disciple, Master."

This time, the Chaos City Lord did not interrupt him, and listened quietly to Venerable Guiyi's story.

Venerable Guiyi continued, "First of all, Teacher is the second strongest person in our human race after the Great Axe Founder, and is also the person in charge of our Virtual Universe Company. As a teacher, if you make the proposal, the Mu Xing Country Lord will be happy to see it happen."

"Secondly, the 'Universe Chaos Stele' he cultivates was created by his teacher, and... the last time I met Kandri, who guards the Chaos Stele, I heard him say that when Lin Yan comprehended the Chaos Stele decades ago, he told Kandri that he could understand the seventh picture of the 'Universe Chaos Stele' and saw an extremely faint but very peculiar special pressure on him."

Venerable Guiyi's expression turned serious. "If Lin Yan really achieved this at the Domain Lord level, I believe that having you take him under your wing would be the best arrangement for him."

"Even if the teacher has many important clan affairs to attend to, and many more important things to do, the time he can teach him is very limited. If there are some difficulties, the teacher can ask his senior brother to guide him. I think his senior brother will not refuse. Lin Yan was able to pass the 15th level, which was also closely related to the 'Black Hole Evolution' created by his senior brother. He was able to master the first level in a short time, which shows that he was extremely compatible with this secret technique."

Venerable Guiyi spoke earnestly; his words were not flattery, but rather stemmed from a selfless heart.

After hearing what Kandri said, he recalled the two inexplicable outbursts of the Chaos City Lord, and after considering them together, he naturally understood.

The first time was when Genius Battle newcomer came to Chaos City, and the second time was decades ago when Lin Yan came to Chaos City to comprehend the Chaos Stele. It is likely that both times were due to this reason.

The Initial Universe is overseen by an avatar of the Chaos City Lord, who controls all the power of the entire Initial Universe. As long as he is in the Initial Universe, he is practically invincible. Everything that happens here... he can easily know if he wants to know.

Venerable Guiyi originally thought that the Chaos City Lord couldn't possibly be unaware of this, and there was no reason for him to turn a blind eye. He should already have the idea and plan to take Lin Yan as his disciple.

Firstly, it is quite normal for a top expert like the Chaos City Lord to take on disciples. This is in itself a contribution to the race. Moreover, Venerable Guiyi is well aware of the Chaos City Lord's idea of cultivating new pillar experts for humanity.

Secondly, it would be perfectly reasonable for a genius like Lin Yan to be personally accepted as a disciple by the Great Axe Founder. There would not even be any tests required; he could directly become a personal disciple. Such a speed of progress is truly astonishing.

However... Lin Yan has been cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City for 19 years, and he has not seen any movement from his teacher. After much deliberation, Venerable Guiyi decided to offer his own advice.

Given the current situation, it makes no sense for someone who isn't the ruler of the universe to compete for the personal disciple of a Universe Overlord.

The very few universe masters among the human race naturally understood whose path was most suitable to teach Lin Yan. In addition, Lin Yan himself came from Virtual Universe Company, so unless the Chaos City Lord expressed his refusal to accept him, no one else could express their opinion.

"I understand." The Chaos City Lord shook his head and smiled. "But some things are not as you think. As for the matter you mentioned, let's take another look."

When Lin Yan first entered Chaos City, he broke through six levels of the Tongtian Bridge. Coupled with the Special Encounters of the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone and the Light Web Crystal prototype, the Chaos City Lord did indeed intend to take Lin Yan as a nominal disciple, and then take him as a personal disciple after he broke through Tongtian Mountain.

However, when the Mu Xing Country Lord had the idea of taking on disciples again after billions of years, based on certain considerations, the Chaos City Lord gave up this plan.

"Disciple understands." Hearing the Chaos City Lord's reply, Venerable Guiyi, though puzzled, nodded and said nothing more.

There might be some things behind this that I don't know.

The Chaos City Lord looked at his second disciple, pondered for a moment, and said, "However, my Virtual Universe Company cultivates geniuses, and the higher their talent, the more resources they receive. These resources will be distributed at the World Lord level. Since Lin Yan has such talent, I should also give him some resources."

"You will be the one to convey this message for me."

There were no surprises Venerable Guiyi.

He ranked second among the many disciples under the Chaos City Lord, and served the Chaos City Lord for many years, making him an absolute confidant of the Chaos City Lord.

He practically represented the mouthpiece of the "Chaos City Lord," and many of the Chaos City Lord's affairs were conveyed and carried out by this second disciple!

This relationship meant that Venerable Guiyi also knew his teacher very well.

Although Lin Yan was not accepted as a personal disciple by his teacher, the greater his potential, the more valued he would be by the Chaos City Lord, and it was normal for him to be given resources.

Everything is done from the perspective of the community, without involving too much personal gain. This is the case with the Chaos City Lord.

The Chaos City Lord thought for a moment.

"I will grant him an additional 20 opportunities to comprehend the 'Universe Chaos Stele.' He doesn't need to wait until he reaches the World Lord level; he can use them now. I believe this is what he needs."

The Chaos City Lord's eyes were calm and deep as the sea. "However, you must tell him that according to the tradition of the Virtual Universe Company for billions of years, World Lord level must undergo Life and Death Hone, and my requirement for him is that before undergoing Life and Death Hone, he must pass through the 18th Floor of the Tongtian Bridge."

Venerable Guiyi was immediately startled.

The Tongtian Bridge 18th Layer is already the realm of Feng Wang Immortal God!

Once you cross the 18th Floor of the Tongtian Bridge, you can directly become a permanent resident of Chaos City, establish a sect in Chaos City, and teach future generations.

The fact that one's Law Comprehension must be comparable to that of King Rank before being allowed to undergo Life and Death Hone shows how much attention and importance the Chaos City Lord attaches to Lin Yan.

The Venerable Guiyi, recalling Lin Yan's past performance, was no longer so surprised.

"Go!" the Chaos City Lord waved his hand.

"Yes, teacher!" Venerable Guiyi bowed respectfully.

Wow!

His figure vanished from that vast continent and instantly appeared outside the Chaos Ruins Courtyard.

Venerable Guiyi stood there silently for a moment, and then, following the instructions of the Chaos City Lord, went to convey this information to Lin Yan.

Two months after Venerable Guiyi conveyed this message.

Within Chaos City, countless Cultivation Residence, meditating and cultivating diligently.

Lin Yan, dressed in black, was sitting cross-legged on the balcony, looking up at the Laws of Cosmic Operation manifested in some Space Rift high in the sky.

"Hahaha..."

He suddenly laughed and then stood up.

"In less than 20 years, I have visited the Universe Chaos Stele times to study it, and finally I have fully comprehended the Fourth Diagram, the 'Twin Star Map,' and the fifth diagram, the 'Starry Sky Map,'" Lin Yan said with joy.

A normal understanding of the fifth image of the "Universe Chaos Stele" is roughly equivalent to passing through the Tongtian Bridge 15th floor, similar to the first level of the "Primordial Beginning".

As for Lin Yan's research on "The Primordial Beginning", in the seventh year after entering Chaos City, he had already passed the 16th level of the Tongtian Bridge and the Domain Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain.

This is because whether it is the Fourth Diagram to sixth diagrams of the "Universe Chaos Stele" or the first to second layers of "The Primordial Beginning", they are all about the integration of the Law essence in terms of the Law Comprehension. They have similarities and differences.

Both lead to the same goal, albeit through different paths.

Lin Yan smiled and said, "I've used up all seven of my own opportunities for comprehension. Fortunately, the Chaos City Lord has given me another 20 opportunities, otherwise my cultivation conditions would not be as good as before."

During the more than 19 years that the Xue Qiao Clone entered Chaos City, it mainly focused on comprehending the laws and cultivating the "Golden Framework" to promote the improvement of its Life Gene Level.

Before entering Chaos City, he had a total of 6 opportunities to comprehend the comprehension. Including the one he took to break through the 16th floor, he had a total of 7 opportunities. Only by using them all could he so quickly comprehend the Fourth Diagram of the Universe Chaos Stele while being distracted by cultivating "The Primordial Beginning".

It should be noted that his Green Line Devouring Worm had long since abandoned this aspect and devoted themselves to studying the "Azure Firmament" and the "Azure Luo Secret Technique".

However, the more important reason is... the Xue Qiao Clone's powerful Space-Time Talent, which allowed Lin Yan to cultivate the Universe Chaos Stele, making him more adept at it than before.

We also need to consider that Lin Yan himself has been on Earth in the Milky Way Galaxy for nearly 63 years!

Although Lin Yan's main body is not as single-minded as this, and his life and cultivation rhythm is not so pure, he has this time advantage. Every time he comprehends the Chaos Stele, his main body and the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone are equally immersed in the comprehension. Each time they comprehend, their comprehension time is equivalent to 22 days!

Given all these factors, it's not surprising that Lin Yan was able to achieve this.

"However... is the requirement that I must pass the 18th Floor of the Tongtian Bridge before I can undergo the Life and Death Hone?" Lin Yan smiled slightly. "In other words, I must comprehend the Sixth Diagram of the Universe Chaos Stele, or master the second level of 'The Primordial Beginning'?"

"That's interesting."

He didn't think much about it; Lin Yan was very confident about this.

Virtual Universe, Knowledge Repository.

As usual, Lin Yan connected a wisp of his consciousness to the Virtual Universe, preparing to continue studying the various secret techniques he had previously studied. Upon entering the virtual universe, he discovered some emails.

"So many emails."

Lin Yan was taken aback. He tapped the air in mid-air, and a virtual screen appeared. He quickly reviewed the contents of the emails using his mental processing speed.

When Lin Yan saw one of the emails, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Indeed, the giant sleeping Beast God Statue that Xerod left behind in the Golden Horn Clan is not an isolated case. On the path of cultivating the Wood Beast God, one can also find such strange creations. Hmm, I hope it can be of help to me."

The email was sent by the Mu Xing Country Lord. The attachment listed four items that Lin Yan might want, all of which were within Human territory.

However, it cannot be confirmed, since she does not have much understanding of the Path of the Beast God.

Lin Yan looked at it carefully, then his gaze settled on one of the lines.

"Augustus Planet?" he murmured.

The Azure Firmament Secret Manual that the Green Line Devouring Worm is currently researching originated from the Universe Overlord Augustus. The more Lin Yan studies it, the more he admires the person who created this manual... just how high a level has he reached?

If it were Augustus, he believed that this powerful figure possessed such an ability.

"Let's give it a try." Lin Yan made his decision and, without further hesitation, quickly sent out an email through the Virtual Universe.
