Mountain Master's Surprise!

Since Lin Yan became famous, the miracles he has created have been witnessed by all, repeatedly shocking countless powerful beings from all races in the Primordial Universe.

He was already famous throughout the universe at the World Lord level, and was known as the "King Xuanyuan". He killed the Venerable Hui Zhe with a single axe, and then suppressed the Evil Wing Cult Master by World Projection...

He broke through two barriers in succession, transformed into a Venerable Divine Body, and just after breaking through to the Universe Venerable, he defeated the Lord Tian Lang the Demon Race's Heavenly Wolf!

Despite being surrounded and attacked by three of the Universe's Strongest from the Three-Race Alliance, they managed to escape unscathed, but instead caused the three races to lose five universe masters...

Slay the Master Yuan Ao, suppress the Universe's Strongest, the "Black Zhou Founder," and seize the Mysterious Item Divine Wood...

Each and every one of these events is awe-inspiring to the entire Primordial Universe, a true "unrepeatable miracle" that has never occurred since the birth of the universe and is unlikely to be surpassed or even come close to in the future.

And this peerless Origin Master is one of the Guardian Divine Lord of the Ancestor God Cult, so the Three Ancestor Gods would naturally be familiar with him.

After the battle with the Master Yuan Ao, Lin Yan disappeared without a trace.

But no one expected that just two thousand years later, this name would reappear in the world's view, and that was for killing the Shadow Bell Demon Lord!

The powerful beings of all races in the universe were shocked to realize just how powerful the strongest genius of the human race had become... Looking across the Primordial Universe, apart from the Primordial Ancestor who had long been Permanently Suppressed, only Lin Yan had the record of killing the Universe's Strongest.

However, Lin Yan never appeared during the "Duan Donghe Inheritance" incident that affected the entire Cosmic Sea. Later, Luo Feng, the Galaxy City Lord, who was also a member of the human race, mentioned to Duan Dong He that the human race and the Origin Master had temporarily lost contact.

This led many major powers in the Cosmic Sea to suspect that the Origin Master shook the Cosmic Sea might have already perished.

But...

But!

The Three Ancestor Gods of the Ancestor God Cult are now certain that the Origin Master has not perished; on the contrary, he has become even more defying the heavens!

Ask them how they knew?

That was told to them personally by the Primordial Universe Origin Will!

"Child of Rules... What exactly did the Origin Master do to deserve such an honor?" The Young Ancestor God in white robes couldn't help but tremble.

"I don't know, this has never happened before," the Old Ancestor God shook his head.

Previously, even when Lin Yan killed the Shadow Bell Demon Lord, the impact on the Ancestor God was limited.

After all, before the end of this Reincarnation Era, the Three Ancestor Gods of the Ancestor God Cult never stepped into the Cosmic Sea. In the Primordial Universe, the upper limit of their strength was the Tier 6 peak. No matter Universe's Strongest, they could not shake those who had the support of the Primal Universe Will.

For the Ancestor God, who are focused on their official careers, there's no need for so much fighting and killing!

But this time it's different.

The Primordial Universe Origin Will descended and conveyed a command to them— Lin Yan's current status has changed directly from the Guardian Divine Lord of the Ancestor God Cult to this unprecedented "Child of Rules"!

What is meant by "Child of Rules"?

The Three Ancestor Gods racked their brains but still couldn't figure it out.

However, they were very clear about one thing: the Ancestor God Cult was the guardian of the Laws of Cosmic Operation. Compared to Lin Yan, the "Child of Rules," they... could probably be considered "Servants of the Rules."

This Ancestor God with extremely mixed feelings.

Going back through many Reincarnation Era, the "Ancestor God Cult" existed in every Reincarnation Era, but since records began, only these three Ancestor God have encountered such a thing.

"Then what should we do?" The Two-Faced Ancestor God smiled bitterly.

Of the Three Ancestral Gods, he was the one Lin Yan was most familiar with.

It was the Two-Faced Ancestor God who invited Lin Yan to Ancestor God Cult and promised him the position of "Guardian Divine Lord". After Lin Yan truly became the "Origin Divine Lord", the Two-Faced Ancestor God even exchanged some cultivation insights with him.

But he's also having a bit of a headache with this situation.

The Primal Universe Will is their superior, and this "Child of Rules" is undoubtedly the leader's most valued son, which makes their situation more awkward. If they don't handle it well, it's one thing to suffer minor setbacks, but the other is to suffer a terrible death.

After all, their strength and status were bestowed by the Primal Universe Will; if it can be granted, it can also be taken away.

"The Origin Will follows the operation Rule," Old Ancestor God. "The Ancestor God Cult is the guardian of the Operation Rule. We are blessed by the Universe Origin of the universe. We are ordered by the Origin Will will to do our duty and protect the Child of Rules."

"But..." the Young Ancestor God hesitated, "Our Ancestor God Cult's foundation is entirely in the Primordial Universe, and we have almost no influence on the Cosmic Sea. In the Primordial Universe, the Origin Divine Lord's strength is already at the top level, so why would he need our protection?"

"Unless it's a human race..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the Old Ancestor God Cang.

"How powerful are the Laws of Cosmic Operation? Isn't it the same principle?" the Old Ancestor God said in a deep voice. "We only need to do our own job and solve problems for the Child of Rules."

The Three Ancestral Gods exchanged a glance. The tacit understanding gained from working together for countless years allowed them to comprehend each other's meaning and instantly reach a consensus.

The command given to them by the Origin Will is to protect the Child of Rules, and this is something that cannot be taken lightly.

However, this matter should not be told to "Lin Yan" directly, otherwise, over time, the Ancestor God Cult may become a tool of the human race, which would exceed the scope of "one's duty".

But they also knew in their hearts that... given Lin Yan's current status among the human race, if humans were to take any major actions, the Ancestor God Cult Sect would inevitably be unable to remain unscathed.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Who could have imagined that the Origin Master would receive such favor?

While the Three Ancestor Gods of the Ancestor God Cult were shocked, bewildered, and distressed, another Universe's Strongest in the Primordial Universe was gripped by a bizarre rage.

This is a vast starry sky.

The starry sky is filled with countless spatial vortexes, each tens of meters in diameter, yet their astonishing number stretches as far as the eye can see, almost encircling this entire starry sky.

At the center of this starry sky, surrounded by countless spatial vortexes, stands a majestic, pitch- Black Mountain Range.

This dark mountain range is several light-years high and floats in the starry sky. You can vaguely sense powerful auras, and occasionally you can even see the figures of some Starry Sky Beast in it.

Starry Sky Divine Mountain!

This is the sacred ground of the Starry Sky Beast Alliance, one of the Super Power! Within the Starry Sky Divine Mountain, there are countless powerful beings, countless treasures, countless inheritances, and it is even connected to Small Universe belonging to the Starry Sky Beast.

At the very top of Starry Sky Divine Mountain stands a solitary peak, hundreds of millions of kilometers high. It appears both real and unreal, quite wondrous, and is adorned with countless carvings of colossal beasts, representing various races of Starry Sky Beast.

This solitary mountain is called Primogenitor Mountain).

It is the place where the greatest Progenitor of the Starry Sky Beast race lived, and it is also an extremely terrifying super Supreme Treasure!

On the Primogenitor Mountain.

"Boom..." The surrounding space and time changed color, thick electric snakes rolled, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

A massive, winding body loomed into view, emitting an angry roar:

"How is that possible?"

"Humans! Humans!" came the deep, angry voice of the undulating behemoth.

A moment later—

A figure flew in from a great distance in the sky. It was about 90,000 kilometers tall, with a faint black light emanating from its body and two crystal-clear horns on its forehead.

The towering old man gazed at the furious, winding behemoth from afar, frowned slightly, and proclaimed in a loud voice. "Starry Sky Ancestor."

"The Mountain Master!" A voice seemed to emanate from every inch of space.

Whoosh!

The enormous being that had been floating in the void immediately flew over, and its soft, winding body slowly appeared. At the same time, a huge dragon head emerged, with nine sharp horns forming a crown shape.

Its massive body is covered with huge hooves, each with nine toes.

"Since we parted ways in the Beast God Realm, what brings you here to see me this time?" Mountain Master.

He had some connection with the Progenitor of the Starry Sky Beast. Tens of thousands of years ago, Luo Feng had successfully entered the Starry Sky Ancestor's Small Universe, the "Beast God Realm," through the arrangement of the Mountain Master, which opened up the important territory of the Starry Sky Beast Alliance to Luo Feng.

However, this was mainly because the Starry Sky Ancestor already owed the Mountain Master a favor, so there was nothing to say... Could it be that the Starry Sky Ancestor sought him out this time because of Luo Feng's acquisition of the Duan Donghe Inheritance?

The Mountain Master thought to himself.

The Starry Sky Ancestor, suspended in the void, looked at the Mountain Master and said, "I have important business with you this time."

"When I first stepped into the realm of the Universe's Strongest, I received your guidance, which allowed me to communicate with the Universe Origin and gradually strengthen myself. I have always been grateful for this kindness."

"But... now there is another person who has done this, and I can sense that he is even more thorough than me. He is not just communicating with the Universe Origin, but has already been able to control a part of the Universe Origin!"

"What should I do now?" The voice of the Starry Sky Ancestor was tinged with anger and even a hint of panic.

He became the Universe's Strongest by combining the Eight Great Beast God Paths.

After becoming the Universe's Strongest, the Starry Sky Ancestor met the Mountain Master.

Looking across the Cosmic Sea, no one knows how strong the Mountain Master is. All they know is that the Mountain Master has never engaged in a direct, head-on battle with anyone. He always uses auxiliary methods to outwit them.

During his interactions with the Mountain Master, the Starry Sky Ancestor vaguely guessed that the Mountain Master had received some kind of ancient legacy, and the path he mentioned greatly benefited the Starry Sky Ancestor.

This is how he communicates with heaven and earth through the Eight Great Beast Gods' hearts that he comprehended.

The Beast God roam the universe... Their claws, tails, horns, and everything else contain the Path of the Beast God. Even a simple pounce by Beast God contains the Path of the Beast God.

Once any master of the Path of the Beast God comprehends the Heart of the Beast God, every part of their divine body can be used as a weapon, and secret techniques can be directly applied to themselves. The huge gap between close combat and psychic weapons no longer exists.

The Beast God is the embodiment of the Fusion Law, and the Path of the Beast God is also part of the operation Rule... The Heart of the Beast God hides even deeper mysteries.

The Starry Sky Ancestor spent countless years constantly seeking enlightenment and successfully established communication with the Universe Origin.

Only then did he understand why the Ancestor God Cult Sect, with the Beast God Inheritance at its core, was the guardian of the Laws of Cosmic Operation... Many powerful individuals knew the Path of the Beast God of the Ancestor God Cult, yet none of them had ever reached the Universe's Strongest...

Perhaps, the ultimate goal of the Path of the Beast God... is not to create Small Universe at all! Rather, it is to control and mobilize the power of the Universe Origin, and even to merge oneself with the Universe Origin!

This greatly surprised the Starry Sky Ancestor, as it could very well be a Path to Eternity different from that of the two great Holy Lands Progenitor!

For this reason, he always remembered the favor done by the Mountain Master. Mountain Master wanted to let his third disciple Luo Feng, enter the Beast God Realm, he did not refuse.

But now, someone has gone further on this path than him, which has caused the Starry Sky Ancestor to panic.

"Who controls a portion of the Universe Origin? Who is it?" The Mountain Master looked at the Starry Sky Ancestor and asked in astonishment.

He did indeed give guidance to the Starry Sky Ancestor.

The Mountain Master is a reincarnation of a trace of the God-King's Life Imprint, retaining his previous memories. His realm is extremely high, so it would be easy for him to guide a true god.

Or rather, the Starry Sky Ancestor was his initial test of the Origin Will.

The Mountain Master knew that he had comprehended the Eight Great Beast God Paths. His guidance from the Starry Sky Ancestor and any powerful secret techniques were unrelated. Instead, it was a cultivation system he had encountered in the Origin Continent, which was quite interesting but had major flaws.

The Three Thousand Dimensional Cosmic Sea was able to rise because its will became so strong that it had the potential to Body Seizure of the Primordial Universe.

Depending on the strength of the Primordial Universe Origin Will, the difficulty of Soul Seizure varies. Generally, Soul Seizure can be successful once the will reaches the level of Will Manifestation. The most difficult possession is when the will reaches the God King Level.

However, in a certain Cosmic Sea, a certain Ancestor God of the Ancestor God Cult there formed this system, which can also be called the "Ancestor God System", through contact with the Primordial Universe Origin Will... It is to communicate with the Universe Origin to strengthen oneself and ultimately merge with the Universe Origin!

One's own will is the will of the universe! Within the universe, he is invincible! It seems somewhat similar to Soul Seizure, but the threshold is extremely low.

However, once he reaches this level, it ends... After merging with the universe, the universe becomes like a cage, trapping him and preventing him from ever leaving it. Other cultivators of the same system are also unable to merge with the Universe Origin and cannot improve in the slightest.

From the perspective of the Mountain Master, the purpose of Body Seizure of the Primordial Universe Primordial Universe to comprehend its mysteries, thereby Saint-Level or even ascending to the throne of a god! With such obvious flaws, it is naturally meaningless.

Certainly.

Pointing out the Starry Sky Ancestor is no problem.

"Human, Lin Yan!" The Starry Sky Ancestor's voice was deep.

Luo Feng is a disciple of Mountain Master. Lin Yan and Luo Feng both came from Earth, and Mountain Master on his path. His current feeling is that... Mountain Master has taught Lin Yan the real stuff!

Otherwise, how could Lin Yan have surpassed him so easily after he had spent countless years successfully communicating with the Universe Origin?

"Lin Yan?" The Mountain Master was genuinely surprised.

A multitude of thoughts immediately flashed through his mind.

From the time Lin Yan was weak, he acquired all sorts of treasures and repeatedly had encounters that were unimaginable to ordinary people. His talent was so amazing that even he was astonished. Luo Feng, whom he had painstakingly cultivated, had treasures such as the "Nine Tribulations Scripture" and the Star Tower, yet he was always suppressed by Lin Yan.

He had been speculating that Lin Yan was created by the Primordial Universe Origin Will, or even a scheme targeting him.

"It's all explained! Everything can be explained!"

"No wonder the cultivation time was so short, yet the progress was so rapid, even creating Tier 6 peak secret technique... It turns out that there was always the guidance of the Origin Will!"

"This system has no future. Even if it truly merges with the Universe Origin, so what? It has no future whatsoever!"

"Indeed, I made the right choice in selecting Luo Feng!"

"He is the true genius. He recently received the pinnacle inheritance of the Duan Dong He lineage, and his potential is limitless! Once he becomes the Lord of the Universe and his Will Polished even stronger, we can let him learn the 'Lie Yuan Art' that I possess!"

The Mountain Master was secretly delighted.

His many schemes were all aimed at cultivating an outstanding disciple to assassinate the Country Lord the Food Nation.

The initial goal was to cultivate a disciple with Infinite Divine Body. Only a strong person with Infinite Divine Body is a true genius... That's how Yan Di came to be. But the current Yan Di is simply hopeless, and he is disappointed.

The second goal is to cultivate a disciple with an extremely strong will.

Although the Star Tower is the King of Gods Master Weapon, in the eyes of the Mountain Master, it is far less important than the "Lie Yuan Art". Inheriting the Star Tower is just a threshold. If one cannot even recognize the Star Tower as his master, how can one talk about cultivating the "Lie Yuan Art"?

He placed great hopes on Luo Feng.

But seeing Lin Yan like this, he couldn't help but feel conflicted. Perhaps Lin Yan was more likely to be practicing the "Lie Yuan Art".

The case has finally been solved.

His judgment is excellent, there's absolutely no problem!

The Mountain Master in a pleasant mood.

However, the Starry Sky Ancestor's displeasure was practically written all over his face.

"Then Lin Yan... could he also be your disciple?" the Starry Sky Ancestor asked directly.

"Of course not." The Mountain Master shook his head. "You know how much effort and resources I poured into Luo Feng. The only human race that could nurture Lin Yan is probably that suppressed Primordial Ancestor! You also know the level of power the Giant Axe unleashed; it must have been guided and instructed by the Primordial Ancestor."

"The information I gave you back then was just fragments. Only if you can comprehend the Eight Great Beast God Paths will I pass it on to you. As for Lin Yan... he has always had amazing encounters, and perhaps he has had some Special Encounters in recent years."

The Starry Sky Ancestor nodded slightly; this was no lie.

"I have another matter." The Starry Sky Ancestor rarely showed a hint of nervousness. "Luo Feng is your disciple. He obtained the Duan Donghe Inheritance. Is there any chance to exchange some cultivation experience guidance from Ancient Civilization with him?"

"Haha..." The Mountain Master laughed, his loud laughter echoing in every inch of the surrounding space. "Luo Feng is still on that Tomb Ship. Even I haven't been able to contact him. Asking me won't help."

"Besides, how can I make this decision? It would be better if you went to find him yourself when he returned to the Primordial Universe."

"Alright." The Starry Sky Ancestor nodded silently.

He looked at the Mountain Master and couldn't help but feel a little jealous. After all, in the vast universe, the most important relationship is that of Master-Disciple. Once Luo Feng returns, the Mountain Master will be able to easily obtain the inheritance from his disciple.

"Then I'll be going," Mountain Master.

Boom!

The Mountain Master then vanished without a trace.

The Starry Sky Ancestor hovered in the void, his eyes filled with contemplation, his expression shifting between light and shadow. "Humans..."
