Sixth Senior Brother

Watching Lian Chi Tong's departing back, memories slowly flooded into Lian Luo's mind—memories that belonged to his former self.

At the World Lord stage, his former self had completely analyzed all 108 essences of the Space Law. In theory, he had been fully confident that, while still a World Lord, he could comprehend the first six diagrams of the Nine Universes Chaos Tablet and pass the eighteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge.

Yet he had not done so. The moment he was confident of becoming a Marquis Immortal, he immediately broke through to become an Immortal God!

The universe held endless resources, but obtaining them required great strength. Only by becoming Immortal did he qualify to compete for those higher-level resources!

I still need to forge ahead courageously! The struggles at the universe level are mere child's play in my eyes, yet in the eyes of those Universe Masters, am I not also merely child's play?

Not long afterward, Lian Luo learned from the emails Lian Chi Tong and Lian Qingzhu had sent him that Lian Chi Tong had indeed chosen to break through to the Domain Lord level.

According to the Virtual Universe Company's training plan, universe level geniuses mainly cultivated in the various secret realms and carried out adventure missions. Domain Lords, meanwhile, were assigned to Universe Nations to hold important positions in the local branches of the Virtual Universe Company. As for the final World Lord Level stage, they had to enter the Outer Domain Battlefield or Cosmic Secret Realms to undertake life-and-death tempering missions!

Internal secret realms, Universe Nations within Human Territory, and Outer Domain Battlefields—or Cosmic Secret Realms—these three stages gradually nurtured the geniuses under training.

Naturally, opportunities came with endless dangers. They also had to constantly face assassination attempts from other races. One moment of carelessness, and they could fall.

A greenhouse could not produce true powerhouses. Only through brutal tempering and slaughter could super beings capable of supporting and leading the race forward be born!

Chi Tong chose to be assigned back to the Ganwu Universe Country. As a member of the Primal Secret Realm, he should, like Luo Feng in the original story, become the supervisory envoy of the Virtual Universe Company's Ganwu branch and one of its four giants! Lian Luo silently thought. I should give him some help as well!

In a mysterious location on Ganwu Continent within the Virtual Universe, Lian Luo's figure slowly appeared.

He raised his head to look at the ancient castle ahead, a faint smile in his eyes. The instant he appeared, a hearty voice rang out from within the castle. "Haha... Junior disciple brother Lian Luo, long time no see!"

As the voice fell, a tall, burly figure clad in silver-white armor walked out of the castle.

The moment they met, he gave Lian Luo a huge hug. Only then did he look Lian Luo over from head to toe and say in surprise, "Eh! Junior Disciple Brother, it looks like you've improved quite a bit. Your aura has changed so much!"

"Sixth Senior Brother!" Lian Luo smiled as well.

"Come, let's go inside the castle and have a good talk!" The silver-armored figure headed into the castle first, smiling as he gestured for Lian Luo to follow.

Lian Luo hurried after him.

As one of the Human race's most ancient Universe Nation Lords, the Dry Witch Universe Master had naturally accepted many disciples over the long years. Aside from those who had fallen, these disciples were basically King-level Immortals, with a small number of Marquis Immortals among them!

This silver-armored figure was the sixth disciple of Dry Witch Universe Master's Teacher, a King-level existence known as King Ye Yue. At the same time, he was also a blood descendant of Dry Witch Universe Master's Teacher.

Because of these two identities, Dry Witch Universe Master's Teacher trusted him greatly. Most of the time, this Sixth Senior Brother managed the affairs of the entire Ganwu Universe Country in his stead!

It could be said that within the Ganwu Universe Country, he stood below only one person and above countless billions.

Back when the Dry Witch Universe Master had accepted Lian Luo as a disciple, it was Sixth Senior Brother who had initially been responsible for teaching him! Only after Lian Luo became a World Lord and grasped a trace of the Way of the Beast God did the Dry Witch Universe Master personally guide his cultivation!

Therefore, Lian Luo had an excellent relationship with this Sixth Senior Brother. When he returned after resurrection, he had spoken with Sixth Senior Brother for a long time.

After entering the castle, the two sat down one after the other.

Sixth Senior Brother, King Ye Yue, smiled and asked, "Junior Disciple Brother, how has your cultivation on the Outer Domain Battlefield been over these six or seven thousand years?"

"It has progressed fairly well!" Lian Luo paused before continuing, "Within ten thousand years, I'm confident I can become a King-level Immortal!"

"Oh? You're confident you can become a King-level Immortal within ten thousand years?" Sixth Senior Brother was pleasantly surprised. "Not bad, not bad! Then I'll wait for the day you become a King-level Immortal!"

The two chatted further about their experiences on the Outer Domain Battlefield. Then Sixth Senior Brother suddenly asked, "Right, Junior Disciple Brother, you're also fighting on the Ninth Battlefield. I heard that a valuable treasure appeared there, and a human King-level Immortal actually seized it from a group of peak King-level aliens!"

Lian Luo smiled and nodded. "I do know about that. The King-level Immortal who obtained the valuable treasure is called Jiu Li. He's at the same War Base as me, and we're on fairly good terms!"

A greenhouse could not grow towering trees. In order to temper himself, the Nine Li clone was destined to carry out boundless slaughter in the future. To avoid unnecessary trouble finding him, even before Sixth Senior Brother and Dry Witch Universe Master's Teacher,

he had no intention of revealing that Jiu Li was his clone.

Sixth Senior Brother's eyes held admiration. "This Jiu Li is truly formidable, being able to snatch something from a group of peak King-level aliens. Junior Disciple Brother, introduce us if you get the chance!"

"Of course, no problem!" Lian Luo nodded in agreement. He did not think Sixth Senior Brother coveted the Nine Li clone's valuable treasure. Sixth Senior Brother probably simply wanted to befriend the legendary figure Jiu Li.

Although Sixth Senior Brother's strength was ordinary, merely high King-level, he represented Dry Witch Universe Master's Teacher in overseeing the Ganwu Universe Country. His status was extremely important, so Dry Witch Universe Master's Teacher would naturally bestow valuable treasures upon him!

"Sixth Senior Brother, I came to see you this time because I have something I'd like to ask your help with!" Lian Luo said with a smile.

Sixth Senior Brother smiled and nodded. "Oh? Go ahead, Junior Disciple Brother."

"It's like this... one of my descendants..."

Lian Luo then briefly explained that Lian Chi Tong would be assigned to the Ganwu Universe Country. At last, he said with a bitter smile, "Sixth Senior Brother, you know how it is. Those other races will employ every possible method to assassinate the Human race's geniuses. So, I hope that within the limits of what is possible, you can look after him a little!"

"So that's what it is." Sixth Senior Brother nodded. "Don't worry, Junior Disciple Brother. Chi Tong is a genius who came from our Ganwu Universe Country. Since he was able to enter the Primal Secret Realm, he may have the chance to become a supreme existence of our Ganwu Universe Country in the future. I will personally look after him!"

Lian Luo smiled upon hearing this. "Then thank you, Sixth Senior Brother!"

In truth, aside from assassinations by other races, some of the Immortal Gods at the Ganwu branch had embezzled too much. To prevent the supervisory envoy from discovering it, they might also take desperate risks.

But with Sixth Senior Brother personally putting in a word, whether it was the branch's three giants or the Immortal Gods under them, they would surely obediently put away their underhanded schemes.

Sixth Senior Brother laughed heartily. "Hahaha... We're fellow disciples, so why are you thanking me? Just bring me a jug of fine wine when you return from the Outer Domain Battlefield!"
