Chaos City Lord: What Is Earth Hiding?
The Tongtian Bridge Plane, Central Island.
The 86 Immortal God looked up at the live broadcast on the screen. When Luo Feng finally killed his opponent and successfully passed the 13th floor, all the Immortal God present, including the True Yan King, were shocked.
Did Luo Feng pass the 13th floor?
"Sky."
"How is that possible?"
"How could someone's strength have increased so rapidly in just a few hundred years, from 'passing the eighth level of the Tongtian Bridge the 13th Floor '? How could their progress be so fast!"
"Even if he were Domain Lord level, let alone World Lord level, it would be impossible for him to improve so much in just a few hundred years."
These King Rank and Marquis were all terrified. Luo Feng's improvement speed had clearly surpassed the previous category of "peerless genius". In terms of strength, he was naturally far inferior to Ke Di, who had passed through the Original Tongtian Mountain at the Domain Lord level. However, in terms of the speed of progress over hundreds of years... he was even better.
Of course, there have been geniuses in history who have passed the 13th level at the Domain Lord level. Each of them is a famous figure. However, 99% of those Domain Lord level geniuses in history have cultivated for a longer period of time than Luo Feng. After all, Luo Feng has only cultivated for a few hundred years.
He is completely comparable to figures like "Venerable Shi Huo" and "Ke Di"!
If that were all, they would be shocked, but they could still accept it. After all, the existence of Venerable Shi Huo Ke Di, and now the emergence of "Luo Feng," only proves the depth of the human race, with such extraordinary figures emerging generation after generation!
But--
A giant man with Golden Eye and a face covered in needle-like beard narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath. "We've already had a Lin Yan who can comprehend the laws as easily as drinking water, and now another Luo Feng is appearing?"
This group of Immortal God, including the Guardian Bafen, held their breath.
Yes.
Lin Yan, who has already been hailed as "the strongest in Human history," has already appeared. Now, another Luo Feng "appears only once every ten million epochs," is about to emerge.
If Luo Feng in the past could be described as "a once-in-ten-thousand-epoch appearance" like Bolan, not many people would care.
After all, the history of the universe since its birth is incredibly long. Ten thousand epochs is only one hundred million years, which is just a very small period of time. It can only be said that there is hope of becoming King-level Immortal God in the future. Among the Immortal God present, there are quite a few who have had such titles before, so it is not rare.
There are plenty of geniuses. Over countless long years, the human race has produced countless unparalleled geniuses. It is quite normal for geniuses to be concentrated in one period.
But tens of millions of epochs is already a relatively long period of time!
Those who can be called "unparalleled geniuses appearing once in ten million epochs" have all perished along the way, but those who did not perish... even the weakest among them are at the Peak Feng Wang!
Many have become revered figures!
While Luo Feng's performance was far inferior to Lin Yan's, it still reached a top-tier level, which could be described as something beyond logical imagination.
What's even more beyond logical imagination is that... Lin Yan and Luo Feng were actually from the same batch of new recruits!
"Congratulations, True Yan King."
"Haha, we have such a good disciple."
"Congratulations."
A group of Immortal God offered their congratulations.
"Hahaha..." True Yan King was also overjoyed, thinking to himself, "This kid is quite good at hiding his strength. He must have had some special opportunities. When he asks me for advice, it's because of his true Law Comprehension. And when he broke through the Tongtian Bridge just now... he must have used some special secret techniques to increase his strength."
He was extremely satisfied with Luo Feng.
"Unlike Lin Yan, who displayed monstrous talent from the very beginning, Luo Feng came to Chaos City. In just a few hundred years, he has reached the astonishing level of the 13th level!"
True Yan King looked at Longyu King: "Long Yu, you must be careful. There will be many Universe Venerable who have their eyes on my disciple."
Upon hearing this...
Longyu King glanced at True Yan King, while King Tong Nan, standing beside her, smiled slightly, seemingly unperturbed.
This scene felt like something I'd already experienced once before.
Whoosh!
Her figure vanished into thin air immediately, clearly having rushed off to report to the Nine Swords Venerable. When Lin Yan was taken in as a disciple by the Mu Xing Country Lord, the Venerable considered it a regrettable matter, and Luo Feng absolutely could not miss this opportunity again!
Immediately afterwards, the other Immortal God also quickly left to return and report.
"Haha..." True Yan King laughed happily, and then left.
Every strong person has a group of teachers. After all, they have climbed up from the bottom step by step, so they can't limit themselves to that, or they will only waste their talents.
Having reached Luo Feng's level, True Yan King naturally knew that he had a better future, and as for Nine Swords Venerable, being High-grade Venerable, he was convinced of his abilities.
In addition, given his relationship with Longyu King, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he would also be inclined to choose this option.
"What did you say?" The Nine Swords Venerable, who was sitting on the throne in the main hall, suddenly stood up and looked down at the Longyu King.
"Luo Feng has successfully passed the 13th level after passing five levels in a row," Longyu King said respectfully.
"To reach level 13 in hundreds of years, he's hundreds of times stronger than other peerless geniuses at the Domain Lord level who have cultivated for tens of thousands of years? Following Lin Yan, Luo Feng has once again displayed a super talent at the Ke Di level?"
This news quickly spread among the top executives of Virtual Universe Company, but the protagonist of this story, "Luo Feng," showed no excitement or agitation whatsoever.
Although I have reached this level, there is still a big gap compared to my peers, so there is nothing to be complacent about.
On the quiet rooftop of his Cultivation Residence, Luo Feng sat cross-legged, reflecting on the battle repeatedly, and immediately shut down the "Virtual Universe Network receiver" to prevent anyone from disturbing him.
Huff... huff...
A faint, Chaos Qi flow drifted by, Luo Feng calmly reflected on his thoughts, while at the same time, a great storm was already brewing.
Chaos City, surrounded by Chaos Qi flow.
On the rooftop of one of the Cultivation Residence in this ancient city, Lin Yan stood with a detached and indifferent expression, gazing at the vast expanse outside Chaos City.
"I've done my best, and Luo Feng has already shown his talent. The secret of Earth can't be kept secret any longer, so there's no need to keep it a secret any longer," Lin Yan thought to himself.
The unique characteristics of Earth in the universe are unprecedented.
Even the core planets of those Universe Country are simply modified to be larger, more difficult to destroy, and have more abundant Universe Origin Energy.
The differences in the influence of talent among various Life Planet are very small. In comparison, bloodline genes have a significantly greater impact on talent. As for concepts such as comprehension and temperament, they are more ethereal and have a greater degree of randomness.
That's why the Peak Genius Battle exists, selecting the one thousand strongest geniuses from across the entire universe.
Lin Yan's main purpose in concealing Earth was that... he and Luo Feng won first place and top ten in the All-Universe Genius Battle, even surpassing Uka, who came from the Manka Star Race. Hong and Thunder God were also among the top 1,000 or even top 500 in the Ganwu Universe Country. This was too easy to send a bad signal to others.
Nobody cares about Bolan's home planet.
But what if several "Bolan" appear at the same time?
The nature of it is completely different.
The mere title of an Original Secret Realm is far from sufficient to mitigate risks.
Primal Secret Region Member have high status, but it's only equivalent to "Feng Wang Immortal God." Just like that filthy Nightmare King Yan Zhu in the original work, he didn't take Luo Feng, who was the domain lord of the Original Secret Realm and the Inspection Envoy of the Ganwu Branch, seriously at all. Even if he really killed Luo Feng, he would at most be imprisoned in the Starfield Prison for punishment.
If the King Yan Zhu was like this, then other King Rank under the command of other venerable ones would not be much different.
This is still talking about himself. Humans on Earth are even more easily implicated. Killing them requires no cost. Once such people appear and want to rob him, it would be difficult for Lin Yan to refuse.
After all, if the lives of all Earth Humanity were threatened, he would not make such a choice for the ownership of Earth; he would only save it for revenge later.
But this situation was ultimately too bad.
Then--
Lin Yan fabricated this information from the beginning, pretending that they did not come from the same planet, shifting their common point from "mother planet" to their teacher, "Kunlun Realm Master", and then introducing Canglan Star and Jiuzhou Star to attract outside attention.
Check?
Before they participated in the Genius Battle, they were all unknowns, and their locations were very remote and ordinary. There wasn't even a single Cosmic level expert among them, so how could they possibly investigate?
If we really want to investigate, we can only find out who the "Kunlun Realm Master" is. But the universe is vast. If there really is an Immortal God with insightful eyes who has stayed for decades, what does that prove?
I can't say how long we'll keep it a secret, but it'll be enough to avoid these risks and give them ample time to develop.
If you really want to hide it, you can't.
After all, the existence of the Virtual Universe Network makes it entirely possible to query the Space Coordinates of those online. Although they came into contact with the Virtual Universe relatively late, and spent most of their time adventuring in space, the Space Coordinates don't explain much.
The wife's family is in the same Space Coordinates, but given this relationship, it would be strange if they weren't on the same planet.
However... the Virtual Universe is of paramount importance to the human race. Even during Lin Yan's overseas assignment, he needs a legitimate reason to request access to some intelligence from the intelligence department.
Since he and Luo Feng have entered the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company, those who have the authority to know such in-depth information about them must be high-level executives of the Virtual Universe Company. Such people would not even have the idea of taking on a disciple if a peerless genius appeared, let alone pay attention to such a trivial matter.
The fact that they have received such thorough attention is precisely a testament to their extraordinary talent.
At this point, their status is absolutely incomparable to that of ordinary Primal Secret Region Member. The worst-case scenario... is no worse than giving up half of their ownership in the original storyline.
But as time went by, things clearly didn't get any worse.
Even with Lin Yan's exceptional talent and the close attention he received from the Chaos City Lord, this detail remained undiscovered.
After all, his extraordinary talent can be explained by the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone and the "Light Web Crystal." Such Special Encounters can be explained, and no one would think that it has anything to do with the planet he was born on.
Therefore, they can continue to delay, and the longer it goes on, the more advantageous it will be for them, and the greater the possibility of completely retaining ownership of the Earth.
But things are different now.
Luo Feng's talent mainly stemmed from Soul Seizure the "Golden Horn Beast," and he had actually reached the World Lord level. If it were just him alone, there would be no need to worry too much. However, with two people, Lin Yan guessed... it would easily arouse the desire of Super Existence such as the Chaos City Lord to explore.
"It doesn't matter."
"When I told my teacher about my 'bloodline,' I was already prepared for this. If my teacher hadn't helped me keep it a secret, it would have been exposed back then."
"Times can change, so just let things take their natural course."
The sky was vast and silent.
This also made his figure appear even more aloof and distant.
A child carrying gold through a bustling market is doomed; the trouble lies not in the gold itself, but in the child's lack of maturity and independence.
Now that things have come to this, why should he have any more worries or concerns?
Chaos City, Chaos Ruins.
On the desolate, ruined continent, amidst countless Alien Race corpses, the Chaos City Lord, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his gentle eyes.
"Luo Feng, have you crossed the 13th level of the Tongtian Bridge?" he whispered.
In ordinary circumstances, the news would not have reached his ears, but Luo Feng's performance had reached the level of a top human genius, so the news would naturally reach him.
Although he controls a space-time dimension and can easily investigate everything within it, and can instantly see through everyone's background in Chaos City, given his status, it's impossible for him to pay attention to every little detail.
Wow!
His gaze was distant, as if piercing through layers of space, and Luo Feng's figure sitting cross-legged on the rooftop immediately came into his view.
The Chaos City Lord's gaze flickered slightly, and he immediately saw the seemingly ancient Origin Core within him, whose soul had already transformed into the "Origin Pearl".
"So he has already reached the World Lord level..." The Chaos City Lord realized.
The cultivation of Domain Lord level for hundreds of years is completely different from that of World Lord level for hundreds of years. Even for Lin Yan, the fact that his consciousness descended to the Universe Origin place was an extremely important factor in his astonishing achievements.
The Chaos City Lord smiled faintly, "However... for World Lord level to cultivate for hundreds of years and be able to pass the 13th level is enough to show that his talent is amazing."
Although Luo Feng is World Lord level, he is mixed in with the Domain Lord level members, which is not in accordance with regulations. However, there are too many fortuitous encounters in the universe, and the responsibility of the Chaos City Lord is to identify whether there are Alien Race spies. As long as Luo Feng is human, that is enough.
As for the managers below, they didn't realize that Luo Feng Soul Seizure Golden Horn Beast, and still regarded Luo Feng as a Cosmic level being and a domain lord... As the person in charge of the Virtual Universe Company, and the second most powerful figure in the human race after the Great Axe Founder, the Chaos City Lord naturally had no interest in caring about such a trivial matter.
In any case, Virtual Universe Company's size is not afraid of some minor loopholes. Those that can be hidden from management are more valuable to cultivate.
A wisp of the Chaos City Lord's consciousness connected to the Virtual Universe.
Previously, Luo Feng was not worth a second glance, but now his performance has made him worthy of more attention, so the Chaos City Lord directly retrieved all of his information.
"Um?"
At the highest point of Thunder Island in the Virtual Universe, there is a palace amidst endless air currents.
A faint, phantom-like figure stood before the palace, then stepped into the main hall. Reaching the center of the hall, the figure respectfully said, "Chaos City Lord, your subordinate has already investigated this matter according to your orders!"
"It is known that Lin Yan and Luo Feng both came from a planet called 'Earth' in the Milky Way Galaxy and are of similar age. In addition to them, there are also 'Hong' and 'Thunder God' from the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm, who were the strongest beings on Earth before Lin Yan and Luo Feng were born."
"This Earth was once ruled by an Immortal God named Huyan Bo, who set up a secret method to conceal the coordinates of the Dark Universe in his star field. More than eight hundred years ago, it was brought under Lin Yan's name by the Black Dragon Mountain Empire and named 'Origin Star'."
He said respectfully, "It can be determined that the information about Canglan Star and 'Kunlun Realm Master' is all fake. According to the relevant information from the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, it is confirmed that Luo Feng has obtained the inheritance of this Immortal God 'Huyan Bo' and acquired all his wealth."
"Earth?" the Chaos City Lord's voice came. "Shadow, can you find any information about the Green Line Devouring Worm and the Golden Horn Beast?"
The blurry phantom paused slightly, then said, "Six years before the Genius Battle, Earth was attacked by the Golden Horn Beast, which drove Earth Humanity to the brink of destruction. According to the footage we obtained, it was ultimately defeated by Lin Yan, but it is uncertain whether it died."
"As for the Green Line Devouring Worm, no relevant information has been found."
The Shadow Lord is the head of the Virtual Universe Company intelligence department and also the head of the intelligence department of the Hong Alliance. He is a Universe Overlord.
Because the Virtual Universe has a terrifying effect on the dissemination of information, in terms of power, he is in no way inferior to top-tier Universe Overlord such as the "Lord of Heavenly Eclipse Palace".
This matter was personally entrusted to him by the Chaos City Lord, because it concerned Lin Yan's secrets, and he was ordered to investigate it personally.
The Virtual Universe Company intelligence department naturally left coordinate tokens throughout the universe for the Divine Kingdom Teleportation. Therefore, the Shadow Lord went directly to the Milky Way Galaxy and came to Earth. He easily obtained all the information he needed simply by cracking the network.
"Lin Yan, Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God?" A golden-robed figure emerged from the endless flow of energy. It was none other than the Chaos City Lord. Even the Chaos City Lord couldn't help but be surprised. "How could four peerless geniuses emerge from the same era on an indigenous planet? Perhaps they intentionally concealed Earth's existence because Earth has something unusual about it."
"Yes, Lord City Lord," the Shadow Lord replied respectfully.
"Not only that, the most dazzling genius of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance in recent years, 'Lin Xiao,' has been confirmed to be Lin Yan's son, and he is currently on Earth."
The head of the entire Hong Alliance intelligence department, known for his "cold and terrifying" demeanor, showed a rare look of shock. "If Earth is truly special, it is very likely that an incredible secret is hidden within!"
These discoveries are truly astonishing!
The Chaos City Lord pondered for a moment, "Perhaps it's not simply due to Earth's unique characteristics. If so, there's no reason why we've only discovered it now."
He thought for a moment and said, "I will personally go and find out the truth. Shadow, remember not to mention it to anyone."
The Shadow Lord bowed slightly. "Then this subordinate will take his leave."
"Go." The Chaos City Lord nodded.
Chaos Ruins.
Lin Yan's figure, gazing towards the Chaos City, came into the view of the Chaos City Lord.
"Lin Yan!"
"He has a big secret." The Chaos City Lord murmured, "But judging from his various actions, it is understandable."
For any intelligent life form, hiding secrets is almost an instinct.
For the Chaos City Lord, no matter how miraculous the encounter, he had no intention of prying into it, as long as the final result was beneficial to the human race.
Therefore, Lin Yan has never cared about the origin of how he obtained the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone or the prototype of the "Light Web Crystal".
However, the secret behind this matter is obviously of great importance to the human race, and he cannot turn a blind eye to it.
What exactly is Earth hiding?
