Looking at the man in the white robe, Lin Yan vaguely seemed to see the vast and Infinite Universe. The Primordial Ancestor's calm gaze seemed to see right through him, revealing no secrets whatsoever.

"Could it be... that the Primordial Ancestor has already seen through my Life Level, which is more than a thousand times higher?" Lin Yan was secretly shocked.

His various abilities— Supreme Treasure, clones, secret techniques, and so on—clearly could not be hidden from the powerful human race, including the Chaos City Lord. Lin Yan himself did not feel that there was anything he was hiding and did not care about it.

Now, the only things that can truly be considered secrets are the Third Clone, the "Ancestor Tree," and aspects of Life Level and will.

The materials used to nurture the "Ancestor Tree" are obtained from the System Reward for breaking through to the World Lord level. Even with the special Time Flow Rate of the "Two Realms Abyss" which greatly accelerates the process, it still takes thousands of years to successfully nurture it.

No one knows this.

As for his will, he underwent a transformation after being "Endless Samsara" by the Tomb River Water, making him comparable to Universe Overlord. Although he didn't show much of his abilities, he might have revealed some clues when fighting the Ghost Mound King.

Most importantly... is the Life Gene Level. Below the Lord of the Universe, the Life Level has a strict limit of a hundred times. This is part of the Laws of Cosmic Operation, just like the fastest speed in the Primordial Universe is the speed of light, which is an iron law.

However, with the help of the "Golden Framework," a secret technique that is absolutely beyond the Laws of Cosmic Operation, Lin Yan has long since broken through the hundredfold limit. Now, his Life Gene Level is more than a thousandfold, almost comparable to many universe masters.

It's not difficult to hide this from others.

However, after hearing what the Primordial Ancestor said, Lin Yan felt that... as the creator of the Virtual Universe, the Primordial Ancestor might already know or have some guesses. Mentioning the example of the Mu Xing Country Lord's teacher might not be without the intention of making Lin Yan take it as a warning.

Lin Yan's mind raced, but he remained outwardly calm.

"Disciple understands." Lin Yan dared not show the slightest disrespect in front of this legendary Primordial Ancestor.

Since we're here, let's make the best of it.

Primordial Ancestor nodded slightly. "Lin Yan, from today onwards, you will be my ninth personal disciple."

"Disciple greets Master."

Lin Yan knelt down.

This is the formal apprenticeship ceremony, signifying that from this moment on, the "Primordial Ancestor," who was considered taboo by the peak experts of the Alien Race, has become Lin Yan's teacher. His status within the race will rise accordingly, and he can address the Chaos City Lord as "Senior Brother."

Under the guidance of the Primordial Ancestor, his path of cultivation will surely be smoother.

When the moment finally arrived, Lin Yan couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

"Get up," said the Primordial Ancestor.

Lin Yan stood up.

"I have guided quite a few human powerhouses, but I don't have many personal disciples under my command. Including you, you only have nine." The white-robed Primordial Ancestor smiled and said, "However, your eight senior brothers are all capable of standing on their own. I believe you... will not lose to them."

"This disciple will certainly do his utmost," Lin Yan said respectfully.

As someone of the Primordial Ancestor's status, the requirements for his personal disciples are naturally extremely high. In addition, he was suppressed early on, so it is only natural that he has few disciples. However, the achievements of powerful figures such as the Great Axe Founder and the Lord of Dragon Walk are largely due to the Primordial Ancestor's guidance and instruction.

Primordial Ancestor nodded slightly.

He looked at the young figure before him. After countless years, he never imagined that he would be taking on a disciple in the Virtual Universe. His former disciples were all capable of standing on their own, so he naturally had to take better care of this weak little guy.

"I have a general understanding of your cultivation progress," he said. "You have gained a deep understanding of the Space Law and Time Law, and now you are working on creating the second form of the Ten Directions Annihilation. For now, just follow this plan."

"I will make arrangements later. Your training ground in the Thunder Island Palace will be transformed into an infinitely vast virtual space. I will personally arrange opponents for you and help you Creation Secret Technique. If you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask Qian Xing. You can also accumulate them and I will give you guidance every now and then."

"When you have thoroughly comprehended all the major categories of Space Law and Time Law, Law Comprehension has reached the pinnacle below the Universe Venerable, then come to this Virtual Universe Origin Land to find me."

The white-robed Primordial Ancestor smiled faintly.

"Yes, teacher," Lin Yan replied respectfully.

He also understood that although he was accepted as a personal disciple by the Primordial Ancestor, even the two beings, Giant Axe and Chaos, rarely saw the Primordial Ancestor, so of course they wouldn't personally guide his cultivation from time to time.

Most importantly, at his current level, he doesn't need the Primordial Ancestor to personally take care of him. Only when he reaches the pinnacle of the Universe Venerable will he truly be qualified to listen to the Primordial Ancestor's teachings.

But Lin Yan was already satisfied.

Anyone can understand what an incredible opportunity it is to become the disciple of the Primordial Ancestor! Moreover, he is probably not far from reaching the pinnacle of the Universe Venerable.

"You may now step down," the Primordial Ancestor said softly. "From now on, your authority in the Virtual Universe will be elevated to the level of top-tier Universe Overlord. Except for the most confidential information, you can access the vast majority of information in the Virtual Universe Network, including some secret techniques that cannot be found in the treasure vault of the Virtual Universe Company, which will be helpful for you in Creation Secret Technique."

"Thank you, Teacher." Lin Yan's face immediately lit up with joy, and he bowed, saying, "This disciple takes his leave."

The treasure troves of various powers contain secret techniques that are mostly geared towards core geniuses and Immortal God. At the truly high level, apart from research-oriented secret technique manuals such as "The Chaos Principle," they are not commonly seen. Secret technique manuals like "The Path of the Beast God," which involve the Ancestor God Cult, are even less likely to be made public.

The most important text for Lin Yan to comprehend the fusion of Mu Kong with the Path of the Beast God is none other than the "Azure Firmament" secret text created by the Universe Overlord "Augustus". It cannot be found in the treasure vault at all, and was obtained by the teacher of the Mu Xing Country Lord from somewhere.

Lin Yan may not lack money or treasures, but he lacks the authority to obtain these precious secret techniques.

The Primordial Ancestor shook his head and smiled, Lin Yan's figure disappeared directly from the Virtual Universe Origin Land.

He glanced back at the towering statue that stood there through countless ages, his eyes flickered slightly, and then his figure disappeared from the spot.

Chaos City.

On the rooftops of countless Cultivation Residence, one can see people meditating cross-legged, time flowing like water, yet this desolate city seems to remain unchanged since time immemorial.

One of the Cultivation Residence located on the rooftop.

"Boom!"

Luo Feng was sitting cross-legged in meditation, felt a jolt of energy around his body, and then opened his eyes.

"Hahaha..." He suddenly laughed and stood up.

"After I became the master of the Chaos City Lord, my teacher gave me 20 opportunities to comprehend the 'Nine Universes Chaos Stele.' In these 300 years, I have comprehended it 18 times and finally understood the Fourth Diagram, the 'Star Chart,' and the fifth diagram, the 'Star System Diagram'!" Luo Feng was overjoyed. "Now my mastery of the Space Law is comparable to the first level of the 'Yan Shen Seven Transformations'!"

He gazed into the distance, and Chaos City remained exactly the same as before. After passing through the Domain Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, he continued his secluded cultivation in Chaos City for 300 years, while 1,000 years had passed in the Primordial Universe.

"It's time to go."

"It's time to leave Chaos City and venture into the Outer Domain Battlefield."

Luo Feng said silently.

Whoosh!

He leaped down and turned to walk towards the residence of his teacher, the True Yan King, which was not far away. Before leaving Chaos City, he had to bid farewell to his two teachers.

Virtual Universe, Thunder Island.

Lin Yan was directly moved to the King Xuanyuan Palace that he had built.

"Life's encounters are truly wondrous."

"I used to worry for a long time because of Earth's special characteristics, thinking about how to deal with it after it was exposed." Lin Yan shook his head and smiled. "But I never expected that I would first make a ten-thousand-epoch agreement, which solved the immediate problem and obtained a Soul Supreme Treasure. Now that I have been taken in as a disciple by the Primordial Ancestor, I no longer mention that agreement and have completely handed over the development to the Earth lineage."

During his meeting with the Primordial Ancestor, he received an email from the Chaos City Lord, which explained the results of the Supreme Council of the human race.

Not only will the matter of claiming ownership of Earth no longer be mentioned, but the Virtual Universe Company will also open up a large number of training grounds and exchange channels for some treasures and secret techniques to the elite geniuses of the Earth lineage.

Both of these are important to the development of the Earth lineage.

Lin Yan understood that this was all because he had demonstrated this value and weight, the result of his many years of hard work, which was hard-won.

"With the issues of teachers, training grounds, and exchange channels resolved, the development and expansion of Earth will be much simpler," he thought to himself. "The only drawback is that I can't send people to cultivation worlds like the 'Blood Luo World'."

These cultivation worlds offer rare and precious opportunities. Apart from the core geniuses of major powers, only the lords of the universe are willing to pay the price to send some of their family's elite geniuses in.

Suddenly--

Lin Yan raised an eyebrow.

"There might actually be a chance." His eyes flickered slightly. "If I obtain the 'Sacred Stele' from the Illusion Moon Sacred Tower, I might be able to use the opportunity to comprehend the 'Sacred Stele' to exchange for a spot for Earth lineage's elite geniuses to enter these cultivation worlds."

The Sacred Stele is similar to the Chaos Stele, and this kind of "illusionary Sacred Stele" is especially rare, so the opportunity to comprehend it is very precious. In addition, as a direct disciple of the Primordial Ancestor, he has a lot of room for maneuver.

However, Lin Yan himself needs to comprehend and improve his understanding of the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone. The Earth lineage does not yet have any geniuses comparable to the Core Member the five major forces. It is too early to talk about this now, and it is not the right time.

As for his lineage, it receives even more preferential treatment, with every effort made to ensure the continuation and development of this Strongest Bloodline.

"That's not bad," Lin Yan sighed. "However, I still need to focus on cultivation and create my own unique skills as soon as possible. I need to thoroughly understand the major categories of space and Time Law. Only then can my identity as the 'personal disciple of the Primordial Ancestor's be truly deserved."

"The Ancestor Tree will take another thousand years to successfully conceive. With my current strength and status, there are some things that should be put on the agenda."

He pondered to himself.

"Master, Luo Feng's email."

Wind Queen reminded him.

Just as Lin Yan was about to check the effects of his increased privileges, he received an email from Luo Feng, arranging to meet in the Virtual Universe.

Virtual Universe, Galaxy Island.

Over the years, Virtual Universe Network have become widespread on Earth. Normally, connecting to the Virtual Universe on Earth would directly lead to Black Dragon Mountain Island. However, Earth lineage's situation is special, and it is not difficult to apply for a separate island.

Like other islands, Galaxy Island has all kinds of facilities, but what's special is that it has various teaching venues for martial artists and Mental Master.

Within the vast territory of the Ganwu Universe Country, spanning hundreds of millions of star systems in the entire Great Star Region, there is only one Ganwu Dojo, which prohibits any other "martial arts school" or "dojo" from spreading its teachings. The Ganwu Dojo can be said to be the only martial arts Mental Master "school" in the Universe Country, and it is also an important channel for absorbing a large number of martial artists and Mental Master!

If it's a simple apprenticeship, it won't be affected.

However, domain lords, World Master, and even Immortal Expert are strictly forbidden from building martial arts schools on various planets and recruiting disciples on a large scale.

Such a scene is naturally not seen on other islands.

In a quiet courtyard.

Luo Feng, Hong, and the white-robed, bald Thunder God were already waiting there.

"Luo Feng, you're already planning to go to the Outer Domain Battlefield?" Thunder God exclaimed. "I just broke through to the Domain Lord level and received an appointment to be sent to the Ganwu Universe Country!"

"Luo Feng was taken in as a personal disciple by the Chaos City Lord, so it's normal for him to be World Master now," Hong laughed. "Lin Yan is the most monstrous; he's already Feng Wang Immortal God."

"King Xuanyuan... that's no ordinary Feng Wang Immortal God. He can already be compared to my teacher, True Yan King!" Luo Feng said with a smile.

Wow!

Lin Yan's figure appeared out of thin air.

"Haha, speak of the devil, and he appears." Thunder God stood up, smiling as he looked at Lin Yan, "The renowned King Xuanyuan, welcome, welcome."

"It's been a long time since we brothers got together." Lin Yan walked over, carrying a bottle of fine wine. "I just found out how you guys are doing, and it surprised me a bit."

"The Purple Lightning Marquis and the others must be dizzy. After sending away His Highness Lin Yan, Your Highness Luo Feng came, and now Prince Thunder God has arrived. Their positions Inspection Envoy of the Ganwu Branch will probably never be vacant!"

Lin Yan shook his head and smiled.

Thunder God was once again sent out as the Lord of the Original Secret Realm, which did surprise him.

After all, Thunder God's Law Comprehension is indeed much worse than that of other geniuses, so it is not easy for him to enter the Original Secret Realm.

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Yan felt relieved. Thunder God was, after all, a ruler of the universe in the original story. Even if this ruler of the universe was given special treatment by Luo Feng, he still had the potential to become Universe Venerable.

The advantage of Earthling' mindset lies in the later stages.

However, having cultivated at the Cosmic level for thousands of years and possessing Plant Lifeform at the World Lord level, Thunder God has experienced numerous Desperate Level Mission and may have encountered some fortuitous events. Entering the Original Secret Realm is not particularly surprising.

"Haha, luckily, luckily." Thunder God was also a little happy and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you a lot. The teaching team you prepared for Earth is better than mine in the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm. In the last thousand years, I have made rapid progress."

Lin Yan was somewhat taken aback.

He had really forgotten this point. This wasn't just a matter of being better than the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm; even the Original Secret Realm couldn't be this ruthless.
