"Teacher!"

Upon seeing the arrival of the man in the green robe with purple scales, Kan Zhao immediately returned to his seat, and hundreds of members of the Original Zone respectfully bowed together.

"Um?"

Nine Swords Venerable was somewhat surprised to see that all the members of the Original Zone had gathered for this lecture.

His gaze lingered on Lin Yan for a moment, a hint of something deeper in his eyes, a faint smile on his face, though he knew exactly what was going on.

It seems that the reason everyone gathered here for this lecture was not because of their own prestige, but because of the influence of this influential figure.

"Lin Yan..."

"His cultivation years have been so short, yet he has already passed the 18th Floor and become a top-tier member of the Original Secret Realm World Master. This little guy is truly terrifying," Nine Swords Venerable sighed inwardly.

He himself entered the Core Layer the Virtual Universe Company through the Star Genius Battle hundreds of thousands of years ago, which is why he feels this so deeply.

It's a pity... As his direct superior, he had a great opportunity but failed to step forward and accept such a peerless talent as a disciple.

When the Genius Battle Lin Yan cleared all seven Trial Tower, Longyu King specifically brought up the matter. However, at that time, Lin Yan was Mental Master comprehended the Time Law, while the Nine Swords Venerable was Space Venerable who followed the path of a martial artist. Therefore, he simply dismissed the idea after a brief thought.

Once he became famous after the Chaos City, he might have had this idea again, but he would no longer have the opportunity.

This can be considered a regrettable matter for the Nine Swords Venerable.

Fortunately... there are also Luo Feng, Bolan, and others, who are also extremely rare geniuses. Once they reach the Immortal realm, they will all be under his command.

The Genius Battle he presided over this year was truly a gathering of heroes, and it brought glory to the Nine Swords Venerable.

The Nine Swords Venerable smiled, walked into Hall No. 1, and began his lecture.

There was complete silence below.

Even though it was because of Kan Zhao's challenge earlier, they would only communicate with each other telepathically if they wanted to discuss something, and they would never dare to disturb the teacher's lecture.

Inside Hall 1.

There are three members of the Cosmic level, two of whom are sitting in adjacent seats.

One was Wildman Youth with messy hair and bare feet, and the other was a handsome young man in white with an expressionless face, like an Iceberg.

Naturally, it was Rong Jun and Bolan.

Bolan is a genius who appears only once every tens of thousands of epochs. He entered the Original Secret Realm from the very beginning and is still at the Cosmic level. This is simply to accumulate more experience so that he can still stand firm in the Original Secret Realm after reaching the Domain Lord level.

Although Rong Jun's progress was not as fast as Bolan's and he didn't seem particularly outstanding, he had a solid foundation and was a disciple of the Yuan Chen Country Lord, so entering the Original Secret Realm was a natural progression for him.

Surprisingly, his progress over the years has been significantly faster than before.

Only a few hundred years have passed since the last Genius Battle, and this batch of newcomers has managed to secure four spots in the Original Secret Realm, which has a total of just over a hundred participants. This is quite a remarkable achievement within the Virtual Universe Company.

Many powerful figures are comparing the three people besides Lin Yan to see who has the strongest potential and the greatest future achievements. Some Super Existence from human races are even betting on this.

"Bolan, do you think Lin Yan will accept the challenge?" the Wildman Youth transmitted his voice.

Bolan glanced at him, then looked at Lin Yan to his left and said without hesitation, "Yes."

"I think so too." Rong Jun grinned, his gaze gradually sharpening. "And I think he will win."

He had extremely strong confidence in Lin Yan.

They were beaten so badly!

Who can understand the pain of being utterly defeated by a Mental Master who draws their sword? Rong Jun understands.

In his eyes, no matter how high-profile Lin Yan is, don't believe that this is his limit.

This guy is just showing what he thinks is enough, and that it's beyond what others can understand!

Bolan gave Lin Yan's retreating figure a deep look and said succinctly, "You will win."

Rong Jun wasn't the only one who suffered.

But in Bolan's heart, his thoughts were even purer, and he didn't need to think too much.

That guy will lose?

The Nine Swords Venerable explained for a long time.

"That concludes today's lecture," the man in the green robe and purple scales said with a faint smile, glancing around at the room.

"Thank you, Teacher Xie!"

The many Primal Secret Region Member were attending the lecture bowed respectfully and expressed their gratitude.

After all, these powerful individuals were giving lectures for free, and I was naturally grateful to be able to attend their classes.

The Nine Swords Venerable nodded and then walked directly out of Hall 1.

Wow!

Kan Zhao immediately stood up from his seat. He didn't ask any more questions, but just looked in the direction of Lin Yan.

Lin Yan sat in his seat without moving, closing his eyes to process and digest the content explained by the Nine Swords Venerable. The Nine Swords Venerable was High-grade Venerable, and today's lecture contained some profound content, which was indeed worth his consideration.

Seeing this, the other Primal Secret Region Member exchanged glances, none of them intending to leave, wanting to see if Lin Yan would ultimately accept the challenge.

Suddenly--

Lin Yan stood up, ready to leave.

Did you refuse?

"That seems to be the case... That makes sense. If it were me, I wouldn't bother with it either."

"This kind of duel is meaningless in the first place."

The World Master and domain lords began to whisper among themselves.

Kan Zhao didn't care about these discussions, but in his opinion, Lin Yan was indeed very likely to possess strength that even he himself had to be cautious about, making him an extremely rare opponent. Although the other party's refusal was expected, it still made him somewhat disappointed.

As Lin Yan approached the door, he suddenly stopped.

"Let's go to the arena." His clear voice echoed in Hall 1, and then he walked straight out.

Upon hearing this...

Everyone present was on high alert.

They actually... agreed?

They actually accepted the challenge and were going to fight this Martial Madman Kan Zhao!

"Haha, good." Kan Zhao laughed loudly, a hint of fighting spirit rising in his eyes, and then followed Lin Yan out of Hall 1.

The other Primal Secret Region Member were immediately intrigued.

"Interesting, very interesting."

"Could it really be as Kan Zhao said, that Lin Yan is still holding back? Otherwise, there would be no need for him to agree."

"Logically speaking, Kan Zhao should have won easily without any doubt, but... this time it seems that it's really hard to say."

"Yes, although Kan Zhao created his own top-level ultimate technique, Lin Yan mastered the core secret method of 'Black Hole Evolution' when he was at the Cosmic level. That is Peak Ultimate Skill. If the compatibility is high, it is not inferior to the self-created top-level ultimate technique."

"Let's go take a look."

A group of Primal Secret Region Member walked out in small groups, laughing. The Qualification Battle for World Lord level only happens once every 100,000 years. The duel between Kan Zhao and Lin Yan, Great Wind, is definitely a rare spectacle in the Original Zone.

Luo Feng looked at them, shook his head, and smiled.

If we're talking about who has the most confidence in Lin Yan, it's naturally him, because he knows Lin Yan best. Over the years, Lin Yan... has never lost.

The Original Zone, the dueling arena.

Although it is called an arena, at the level of the Original Secret Realm World Lord, a single movement can cover tens of thousands of kilometers, and with a little more force, a planet would collapse. Therefore, it is simply impossible to build such an arena environment in Yu Xiang Mountain.

These are all similar Qualification Battle, where players are directly teleported out of Yu Xiang Mountain and the matches are conducted in simulated special scenarios.

In this public duel, other Primal Secret Region Member have the right to watch the battle live.

"Boom!"

Lin Yan felt the surrounding space shift, and he appeared on the surface of a desolate planet, the surface of which was faintly dark red.

He wore light gold armor and boots, his gaze fixed on the Golden Ancient Sword in his hand.

Lin Yan thought to himself, "The Nine Vortex Sword technique I learned back then, although theoretically without limit, uses the mysteries of space and time to manipulate infinite gravity, making it incredibly powerful. After I mastered the core secret technique, the Primordial Beginning, it reached a new level and can continue to extend."

"But in reality, it still leans towards the basics."

"Over the years, I have chosen the strongest sword technique in 'Black Hole Evolution,' 'Primordial Secret Sword,' and I have been looking for someone to test my Kan Zhao is just in time. If it were an ordinary opponent, there would be no challenge at all."

He has gained a lot from studying the laws over the years, and has mastered the second level of "The Primordial Beginning". However, strictly speaking, this is only equivalent to theory and some basic applications. He still needs to master the ultimate techniques used in combat to unleash its true power.

Therefore, Lin Yan had no reason to refuse Kan Zhao's challenge, and didn't even need to use his strongest Mental Master technique.

At this moment—

Looking into the distance, Lin Yan saw the figure of Kan Zhao, a burly man of the Aragami Race, who was eight meters tall. He was wearing close-fitting Black Battle Armor and had a strangely shaped War Blade on his back.

He didn't blink, his eyes fixed on Lin Yan, filled with fighting spirit.

"Lin Yan, I am very grateful to you for giving me this opportunity to fight. I believe it will definitely be a thrilling battle!"

"That is exactly what I wish for," Lin Yan said softly.

"Good!" Kan Zhao shouted, his aura suddenly becoming violent as he drew the War Blade from his back with lightning speed.

Clang!

War Blade drawn!

Wow!

Like a volcano erupting instantly, carrying an irresistible Intent of Destruction, a dazzling blade of light, as bright as a rainbow, swept across a distance of thousands of kilometers.

At the same time, the dazzling blade light was followed by a huge tail of flame, which rushed towards Lin Yan like a meteor!

"Come on." A sharp glint flashed in Lin Yan's eyes.

Almost instantly!

His body shot out countless curves gleaming with black light, and endless tearing and twisting power erupted instantly, enveloping his body in a blurry, enormous Monster Phantom!

"Laugh!"

The Xuanyuan Sword pierced the sky, and at that moment, the whole world became incredibly distorted, as if space and time were collapsing inward, and the light in the surrounding space was stripped away!

The First Form of the Primordial Secret Sword – Return to the Ruins!

Clang!

The meteor-like blade of light instantly plunged into the endless abyss.

Now.

High in the clouds above Yu Xiang Mountain, where the Original Zone is located, two figures were strolling through the void. One of them, dressed in a green robe and with purple scales covering his head, was none other than the Nine Swords Venerable.

He had just finished giving a lecture when he heard about the duel, so he thought he'd join in the fun and see how Lin Yan and Kan Zhao would fare.

"I thought I was the only one who had this chance encounter today, but I never expected that the Palace Master, with his esteemed status, would also be interested in the sparring among these juniors." The Nine Swords Venerable said respectfully.

He is High-grade Venerable, holding Transcendent position within the Virtual Universe Company. Even if he were to meet Universe Overlord, there would be no need for him to act this way.

Clearly, the other party's status was far above his.

"Haha... After all, our Virtual Universe Company has never had such an interesting junior before. I've heard of him before, but I've never actually seen him." It was a very clear and elegant voice, like the sound of wind blowing through a bamboo forest.

The man had long, reddish-brown hair, translucent skin, and black eyes. There was a vertical line between his eyebrows. Although he was of average height, even giants would feel as if they were facing an endless universe and would feel their own weakness in front of him.

"I'm afraid it won't be long before he grows to be on par with me!" The man looked down, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

Instantly!

"What?" The Nine Swords Venerable's eyes widened in disbelief.

Praising Lin Yan is one thing.

He could accept being told that it wouldn't be long before someone surpassed him, but... how could he grow to stand shoulder to shoulder with the person before him?

It won't be many years?

Even at their level, where they are already eternally immortal, it's unlikely that they could say such a thing more than a million epochs ago.

How optimistic this is!

It was said by this Super Existence himself, which was truly unbelievable to the Nine Swords Venerable!

It should be noted that there are only three people in the human race who can be called top-tier Universe Overlord, each of whom is comparable to the cosmic lord, such as the "Venerable Ancestor Tree" of the Giant Axe Arena, or the "Lord of Heavenly Eclipse Palace" of the Virtual Universe Company in front of us!

A being who alone can intimidate the entire Blood Luo World!

"Given the status of the Lord of Heavenly Eclipse Palace, he would naturally not speak carelessly. Could it be that the highest level of the Virtual Universe Company has already determined that Lin Yan will definitely be able to step into the realm of the Universe Master?" Nine Swords Venerable was shocked.

He himself is Universe Venerable, so he naturally knows that this step is as far as the sky and the earth. He is determined to be able to step into the cosmic venerable one just because he is only at the World Lord level.

This is absolutely terrifying!

Little did he know... that the Lord of Heavenly Eclipse Palace said this because once Lin Yan becomes Universe Venerable, his Special Life Clone, the Green Line Devouring Worm, will naturally be top-tier Universe Overlord Divine Body, far surpassing ordinary top-tier Universe Overlord.

A divine body is the foundation; as for laws and secret techniques, they are naturally not difficult to master.

"Haha, let's fight, let's fight!" Kan Zhao's eyes grew increasingly excited.

"Puff!"

Kan Zhao's War Blade sliced through the sky, leaving behind trails of fiery afterimages that then vanished.

"As expected of the guy who firmly holds the top spot in the World Lord level Qualification Battle, I have to admit, his swordsmanship is truly ingenious and amazing," Lin Yan thought to himself.

Kan Zhao had already crossed the 18th Floor of the Tongtian Bridge long ago, Law Comprehension was comparable to that of King Rank. He even created his own top-level ultimate technique, "Blazing Annihilation Saber"!

Self-created secret technique means perfect harmony, enabling you to unleash absolute power!

Although Lin Yan possessed Peak Ultimate Skill, it was not his own creation. Even with a high degree of compatibility, its power was at most comparable.

However, when it comes to practical combat experience, he is clearly inexperienced compared to Kan Zhao, who has cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years. His combat experience is far less rich than that of his opponent, so he gradually falls into a disadvantageous position.

"Boom!"

Spacetime itself trembled and distorted.

The surrounding Universe Space completely collapsed, and Lin Yan and Kan Zhao were surrounded by countless torrents of Space Fragments. They fought and killed each other in these torrents of Space Fragments. Some Space Fragments vaguely revealed some land inside, but they were directly destroyed by the impact of Lin Yan and Kan Zhao's battle.

The more Kan Zhao fought, the more a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"This guy..."

He discovered that at the beginning of the battle, his opponent clearly lacked practical experience. Although his strength was indeed astonishing as he had expected, he had always controlled the rhythm of the battle and was able to handle the situation with ease.

However, Lin Yan did not lose his footing because of this. Instead, he was completely immersed in his own mind and undisturbed by external things. Like a sponge, he frantically absorbed every bit of moisture. In the process of fighting against himself, his fighting style was extremely varied, and he often delivered unexpected blows.

"Not only is he a genius in cultivation, but he is also an extremely terrifying prodigy in combat." Kan Zhao shocked.

The Aragami Race is a race naturally skilled in combat, and he is the most outstanding genius among Aragami Race. It is conceivable that he could be alarmed.

"Even though you still have the 'Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body' Amplitude Secret Method, you haven't used it. The fact that you can defend so easily shows that the pressure I brought wasn't great enough."

"16 times the Body Amplitude! Unleash your full power!"

"Blazing Annihilation Saber!"

Kan Zhao, no longer wanting to get into a fight, snapped!

"Puff!"

Blood-red runes emerged from his body, and a violent and fierce aura spread out. Kan Zhao suddenly lunged forward, and then a dazzling and heart-palpitating blade light instantly appeared!

Boom!

The Universe Space trembled violently, revealing terrifying Space Turbulence. Even Space Fragments were completely Annihilation by this single strike!

"It has appeared."

One of the Original Secret Realm World Lord watching the battle felt somewhat aggrieved.

"For Lin Yan to be able to force the Martial Madman to use this move, he can be considered to have lost with honor."

"That move is insane!"

"Sigh, who told him to be so lucky to obtain the Blood Fire Divine General Inheritance? If it weren't for that, we wouldn't be completely powerless to put up a fight in every World Lord level Qualification Battle!"

The Original Secret Realm World Lord watching the battle were discussing it animatedly.

"The Blood Fire Divine General Inheritance?" Luo Feng was taken aback.

Aside from his own Magic Sound Divine General Inheritance, this was the first time he had seen someone else receive the Divine General inheritance.

From the conversations of those World Masters, he learned that the foundation of human divine bodies is poor. Under normal circumstances, even a human powerhouse at the Feng Wang Limit can only achieve Divine Body Amplitude of four or five times, which is already quite remarkable.

However, Kan Zhao received the Divine General inheritance, and since he was born into the Aragami Race, he was more suitable, and his amplitude directly reached an astonishing 16 times.

Even if others have some tricks up their sleeves, they can't bridge such a huge gap.

In their view, since Lin Yan had used this move, it meant that he was bound to lose.

Suddenly--

"How is that possible?"

Everyone watching the live stream was stunned and speechless.

"Primordial Secret Sword, Second Form - Break Prohibition!"

Black light armor appeared on Lin Yan's body, with dark gold secret patterns on it. With a hiss, the collapsing Universe Space spread in all directions as the Xuanyuan Sword pointed, and space was instantly distorted. The elusive sword light seemed to devour heaven and earth!

Laugh!

At this moment.

The sword light pierced through the distorted space and instantly struck Kan Zhao between the eyebrows!

Boom!

The fierce sword light dissipated instantly, and countless black threads burst forth in the surrounding space, seemingly forming a Micro Black Hole, where extreme gravity swept through!

Even though Kan Zhao has undergone astonishing changes in his material composition through repeated life evolutions, under this super-strong gravity, even his atomic and molecular structures collapse directly.

It vanished into nothingness.

"This secret technique that utilizes the 'Wormhole Effect' is indeed difficult to defend against in battle, and can be fatal in an instant." Lin Yan said calmly, "If my amplitude intensity had not been higher than yours, and if I hadn't taken him by surprise, I might not have been able to win."

In this competition, he also discovered many of his own shortcomings.

High above, shrouded in Yu Xiang Mountain and clouds, the two figures standing in the void looking down below had different expressions.

"They actually won." The Nine Swords Venerable frowned slightly. "Lin Yan also seems to have reached a very high level in terms of Body Amplitude."

"It seems the number one in the Original Secret Realm has been decided." A hint of a smile appeared in the eyes of the Lord of Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

The number one person in the Original Secret Realm who is only a few hundred years old is really interesting.

Whoosh!

His figure vanished into thin air in Yu Xiang Mountain.

The Original Zone was completely silent below the battle arena.

"Defeat?"

"Kan Zhao, even with the full power of the Blood Fire Divine General Inheritance, Blazing Annihilation Saber, still lost?"

"How is that possible?"

The World Master were shocked. They had all fought against Kan Zhao and knew his strength all too well. Most of them believed that Kan Zhao would win.

But in the end... even Kan Zhao lost to Lin Yan.

"We lost."

"The number one person in the Original Secret Realm has changed hands..." Some people couldn't help but feel a little lost and dejected.

They are geniuses from the Original Secret Realm!

Who isn't a genius?

They knew that in terms of talent, they couldn't compare to Lin Yan, but most of them had cultivated for hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years, yet there was still such a huge gap between them and Lin Yan, who had only cultivated for a few hundred years!

They were disheartened.

This era is destined not to belong to them.

Luo Feng's eyes, however, lit up.

As he watched Lin Yan's figure disappear from the live battle broadcast, he murmured to himself, "This is how it should be, this is how we should live!"

He grinned.

"Babata, let's go to the Tongtian Bridge Plane. Today I'm going to give it my all and show my strength."

This era is destined to belong to him.

"Okay!" Babata said happily.

Whoosh!

While the other World Lord level were still discussing amongst themselves, they were unaware that another newly Domain Lord level had vanished and been directly teleported to the Tongtian Bridge Plane.

Today!

This is destined to be an extraordinary day!

Having just witnessed the change of the throne of the number one person in the Original Secret Realm, he, Luo Feng, is about to make a world-shaking impact as well!

The Tongtian Bridge Plane.

The Central Island the entire plane was deathly silent. There were 86 Immortal God, more than half of whom were Feng Wang level and the rest were Marquis level. They were all staring intently at the screen.

The large group of Immortal God who had gathered were silent, staring at the screen in shock, their eyes filled with horror and disbelief.

Is that possible?

Nine floors!

Ten floors!

Eleven floors!

Twelve floors!

Luo Feng, you've conquered thirteen levels!

Someone couldn't help but exclaim, "Did these newcomers in the Genius Battle stumble upon a den of geniuses? Has another genius emerged, comparable to the legendary 'Venerable Shi Huo' 'Ke Di'?!"

Their eyes were filled with shock. Madness, madness, the world has gone completely mad!
