You All Come at Once

The next day.

A day in the Moling Great World was rather long, roughly equivalent to three days on Earth.

Zhou Lin pulled open the curtains. As the red sun burst over the horizon, a faint mist lingered among the distant mountains, and the air throughout the Moling Great World was exceptionally fresh.

His Myriad Tribulation Primordial Body was extremely sensitive to the slightest movements in the world. Nothing escaped his notice.

The streets were packed with people like a sea, and they had already surrounded the City Lord's Estate.

Tens of thousands of miles away, countless geniuses were still arriving one after another.

"They really can't wait." Zhou Lin said helplessly. He had intended to wander around and take in the local customs of the Moling Great World.

Aido smiled. "This is nothing. Supposedly, every named genius in the entire Moling Great World has to come. This is their feast."

Whoever defeated Zhou Lin would also become famous overnight, becoming the strongest genius of the Tiwala Tribe and enjoying supreme glory and splendor.

"Human genius Zhou Lin, I challenge you!"

In front of the City Lord's Estate, a Tiwala youth standing a full two meters tall shouted loudly. His name was Zicheng, and he ranked among the top three Domain Lords of his generation in the tribe.

His comprehension of laws was roughly equivalent to the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge.

For someone of this caliber, if they were competing purely in realm, Zhou Lin could have casually crushed him even when he was at the Cosmic level, let alone now.

Zhou Lin could not understand why these people were so passionate.

They should have understood his realm, yet they still came one after another to challenge him, as if being defeated could prove something.

Countless geniuses had gathered. Even the weakest among them were comparable to Domain Lords from the Tiandi Secret Realm, and nearly all were the most outstanding younger generation in their respective cities.

There were also plenty of people who had come from all directions just to watch the excitement. For now, they were only from cities near Ruowa City, but even more would arrive with time.

"Will Your Highness make a move?" Aido asked with a smile. "Sweeping through their strongest geniuses would make the trip worthwhile."

Zhou Lin shook his head. The Virtual Universe Company's mission was not that simple. What would it count for if he merely defeated a Domain Lord genius on his own?

A true genius should be able to defeat a genius Realm Lord while still in a Domain Lord's body.

Suppressing an affiliated tribe was only one aspect. The real purpose was to see how Zhou Lin conducted himself and cultivate him into a high-level member of the tribe.

Moreover, considering the Prestige Value, Zhou Lin had to wait until more people arrived.

The Moling Great World was simply too vast. Even the Venerable Lord Hall at its very center seemed tiny. Those from the outlying regions needed time to make their way here.

"What are you in such a hurry for?" Zhou Lin sat in a green bamboo chair, leisurely gazing at the blue sky outside. "Spread the word that I'm in secluded cultivation."

He would have to wait at least two months, allowing more and more people to gather here.

Sweeping through a few Domain Lords would not meet Zhou Lin's expectations.

Thus, even though people shouted every day below the City Lord's Estate that they wanted to challenge him, Zhou Lin remained as steady as Mount Tai. He even frequently traveled outside with his Void Realm clone.

After experiencing the customs of this tribe, Zhou Lin also came to understand why they were so fanatical.

It was still the early period of the Cosmic Era. Unlike those weak tribes, they had always felt that they were merely taking shelter temporarily.

Once a Universe Master was born, the tribe's status would undergo a tremendous transformation. It was just like how the Golden Horn Tribe had not needed to become affiliated with humanity at the height of its power.

That was solely because Xiloduo, a top Universe Overlord, existed.

Although the Tiwala Tribe was weak, it possessed several Universe Overlords. They believed they could certainly change their fate, which was why they dared to issue challenges.

So what if we lose? At least we once fought for it.

Ruowa City was several million kilometers long and wide.

Zhou Lin's Void Realm True Meaning had reached the third realm, and he was even close to opening a Second-Grade Divine Heart. After he expanded his Void Realm Domain, even an Immortal would find it difficult to detect him without approaching him.

After all, in terms of realm, an Immortal was actually only comparable to a God at the limit of a Second-Grade Divine Heart.

Of course, if he approached an Immortal, their perception of space would allow them to easily notice that something was wrong, though they still could not see through the foundation of it.

The Void Realm was also the most suitable method for assassination.

Soon, two months passed. In his spare time, Zhou Lin had already condensed a Second-Grade Void Realm Divine Heart, but he had not opened his Divine Sea, so he could not yet be considered a true god.

Even if he opened his Divine Sea now, it would not help his strength much, because the Water Drop Power within his body far surpassed divine power.

Unless both realms of the Two Realms System simultaneously underwent a leap and became Immortal.

Moreover, Zhou Lin intended to remain at the Realm Lord stage for a long time in the future, because that was when comprehending various laws was fastest.

"By now, there must be hundreds of billions of people who have traveled here from afar."

Zhou Lin sighed. "There were already hundreds of billions of people living here before, and now so many more have flooded in. I suppose everyone capable of coming has arrived, right?"

The vast majority of people were incapable of traveling such a long distance.

The continent's gravity was extremely powerful. Even those at the Planetary level could not fly here. They had to be at least Stellar level, and even then, only relatively powerful Stellar-level individuals could fly.

Traveling was also extremely troublesome.

They could not travel through the Dark Universe. Immortals traveled by teleportation or Divine Kingdom Teleportation, while those weak life forms could only fly slowly.

The technology of weak tribes was underdeveloped. The spaceships used by ordinary people only traveled at between one and two times the speed of light.

It was like when he enslaved Apolshido, that Universe Venerable. Almost all the technological products he obtained through Apolshido had been acquired immediately.

Aido's brows held a trace of worry.

Although he still admired Zhou Lin greatly, the man's thinking, conduct, and talent were all beyond reproach.

But they were, after all, in another tribe's territory.

From Aido's perspective, if Zhou Lin had chosen to sweep through those Domain Lords in the first few days, the mission would have been completed.

He also could not understand why His Highness insisted on making the scene so grand. What kind of influence would a city of hundreds of billions of people have on this tribe?

On this day, Zhou Lin's True Body pushed open the door and walked outward along the corridor.

The attendants at the door were startled. They hurried after him, repeatedly calling out, "Your Highness Zhou Lin, there are quite a lot of people outside the estate. Please don't go out yet."

"Can't I even go take a look at the work?" Zhou Lin raised his brows, but his steps did not slow in the slightest.

Before coming, he had specifically instructed the Merchant Department's staff to delay the cargo handover, keeping the process to around two or three months.

The cargo was worth several thousand billion Hun Yuan units and consisted mostly of trivial items. Things like spaceships naturally required a long time.

Even without Zhou Lin's instructions, it would normally take a month or two.

At the top of the City Lord's Estate, Ximo was watching coldly.

Whoosh!

With one step, Zhou Lin arrived before the City Lord's Estate gates. His Void Realm clone had appeared several times already, but this was the first time his True Body had appeared openly.

Countless gazes immediately turned toward him.

"Human genius Zhou Lin! You finally appeared."

"I challenge you! Human genius Zhou Lin, I will defeat you!"

"Do you dare fight me?"

The geniuses gathered before the City Lord's Estate instantly erupted. Shouts rang out everywhere, and even those ranked near the bottom dared to claim that they wanted to challenge him.

"I accept your challenges."

Zhou Lin smiled, then said in a resonant voice, "You can decide the time and place. As for the number of people, there's no need to trouble yourselves. You can all come at me together."
