The <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth> Community World.

In front of the central group of stone tablets, a large crowd of onlookers discussed for a moment after seeing "Ming" begin to navigate the hundredth level of the maze, and then gradually dispersed.

This is normal.

After all, the test of the hundredth maze takes a lot of time, and even the fastest way to pass it is almost half a reset cycle.

No matter what, "Ming" will definitely be trapped in this maze for a while, perhaps half a reset cycle? Or perhaps most of a reset cycle?

Therefore, the onlookers don't need to wait here; they can just take another look when "Ming" passes through this maze.

"I wonder if this 'Ming' can break the records of the Third Ancestor."

In the crowd, the Three-Pupil Man thought to himself that his Third Ancestor was the strategist who had passed through the hundredth labyrinth the fastest in the last ten million years, and was now serving the royal family of a certain advanced Galactic Human Empire, enjoying immense prestige.

"It took me half a reset cycle to navigate this maze back then."

The Three-Pupil Man pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'll continue to study it for a while, and come back to check on it after half of the reset cycle has passed."

In the mind of the Three-Pupil Man, "Ming" is most likely unable to break the record set by the Third Ancestor.

However, based on the speed at which they stormed the palace earlier, they wouldn't be much slower than the Third Ancestor.

However.

Just as the Three-Pupil Man was about to leave the Community World, he glanced at the central group of stone tablets again out of the corner of his eye.

"Um?"

The Three-Pupil Man was slightly taken aback, almost thinking he was hallucinating.

Because the name "Ming" has now reappeared on the hundredth stone tablet.

What does this mean?

This means that "Ming" has successfully passed the hundredth maze.

The Three-Pupil Man looked bewildered.

Have you cleared the hundredth level of the maze?

How long has it taken?

How can it be faster than the ones passing through before?

"This?"

The Three-Pupil Man suddenly realized what was happening, and a look of utter disbelief appeared on his face.

Has "Ming" passed through the hundredth maze?

At the same time.

Other advisors also discovered that the name "Ming" appeared on the hundredth stone tablet.

After initial disbelief, incomprehension, and speculation about whether the stone tablet was faulty, the crowd erupted in chaos.

"Holy crap, what did I just see?"

"On the hundredth stone tablet, is the newly appeared name 'Ming'?"

"Has 'Ming' broken through the Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame?"

The figures quickly discussed among themselves, and the more they understood, the more they could grasp what it truly meant.

The Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame of the hundredth layer of the maze have been verified by countless strategists and have stopped countless intruders.

And now, this labyrinth, which many strategists considered insurmountable, was traversed by "Ming" in just over a hundred breaths?

What exactly happened?

"Could it be that the hundredth labyrinth that 'Ming' traversed was not the Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame?"

"Impossible! The hundredth labyrinth in the <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth> world tests the Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame. I've never heard of any other test."

"Yes, the test can't be anything else."

Even those who couldn't believe it immediately denied the possibility that it wasn't Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame.

"There are no shortcuts in any of the labyrinths in 'The Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth,' especially the hundredth layer, where only strength can get you through."

"That's right. Since 'Ming' was able to pass the hundredth level so quickly, it shows he has the ability."

"The Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame has almost endless possibilities for calculation. How did 'Ming' manage to break through it in such a short time? Is he a strategist at the level of Saint?"

The so-called strategist at the Saint level refers to someone whose wisdom has reached the Saint level.

The Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame can trap a strategist at the Stellar Lifeform level for most of a reset cycle, but in the eyes of a strategist at the Saint level, it's nothing special, and it's possible to pass through in a hundred breaths.

After all, the speed of thought and computational ability at the Saint level far surpasses that of Stellar Lifeform.

Is it really just a strategist at the Saint level trying to conquer a hundred layers of mazes?

Saint is not born out of thin air; he too needs to progress from Starry Sky Lifeform to Stellar Lifeform, and then to Cosmic Lifeform.

How could a strategist at the Saint level possibly not attempt to conquer the hundredth level of the Myriad Layers of the Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth over such a long period of time?

The Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame is indeed difficult, but under normal circumstances, strategists at the intermediate and advanced levels of Stellar Lifeform are fairly confident in overcoming it; it's just a matter of how much time it takes.

A strategist at the Saint level can conquer the 100th level of the maze? That's extremely rare. This is also the fastest progress in the last tens of millions of years, which is almost half a reset cycle.

"A strategist at the Saint level is unlikely; perhaps it's a special strategist at the Stellar Lifeform level."

"Yes, at least a strategist at the extremely special level of Stellar Lifeform."

After discussion, the onlookers determined that "Ming's" strength was at the level of a strategist of a special Stellar Lifeform.

What is special? It refers to being superior to other life forms at the same level in some aspect.

"This 'Ming' is truly remarkable."

After a long silence, the Three-Pupil Man was filled with emotion.

He also believed that Su Yuan could not possibly be a strategist at the Saint level, as such an existence would hold a lofty position in all Thirty-Six Galactic Human Empires.

As the most difficult dimension to improve among the six dimensions of life, the wisdom dimension is extremely difficult to elevate to the level of Saint. Currently, the Saint of the Thirty-Six Galactic Human Empires mainly cultivate the fourth-dimensional and fifth-dimensional cultivation methods, lacking cultivation of the wisdom dimension.

Of course, as the level of life continues to rise, even if a Cosmic Saint cannot take care of the dimension of wisdom, his wisdom will not be too low, but it will be far inferior to that of a strategist of the same level.

Just as the Three-Pupil Man was staring at the newly appeared name "Ming" on the hundredth stone tablet.

A figure appeared silently beside the Three-Pupil Man.

The figure was a middle-aged man with six pupils in his eyes that slowly rotated.

"The Third Ancestor."

The Three-Pupil Man immediately addressed the middle-aged man respectfully.

The middle-aged man was his Third Ancestor, and before today, he was the record holder for breaking through the Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame the fastest in nearly ten million years.

Immediately after discovering that "Ming" had passed through the hundredth level of the maze, the Three-Pupil Man informed the middle-aged man.

"Um."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, his gaze fixed on the name "Ming" on the hundredth stone tablet.

"Third Ancestor, what is your opinion of this 'Ming'?"

The Three-Pupil Man couldn't help but ask.

He is not Saint.

The middle-aged man remained silent for a moment, a strange glint in his eyes.

"Not Saint?" The Three-Pupil Man was taken aback, but he quickly realized something was wrong.

He also believed that "Ming" was not Saint, but this was ultimately just speculation without any substantial evidence.

However, the tone of his Third Ancestor's words seemed to suggest more than just speculation.

"Why do you think so, Third Ancestor?" the Three-Pupil Man asked in a low voice.

"Because I can't find any information about this 'Ming'," the middle-aged man said calmly.

As a strategist hired by the royal family of a high-level Galactic Human Empire, the middle-aged man had high authority in the Virtual Network World and was qualified to query the identity information of ordinary Empire Citizen.

However, when I tried to check "Ming's" information just now, I not only found nothing, but I was also warned by the Virtual Network World.

What does this mean? It means that the identity information of this "Ming" has been specially protected in the Virtual Network World, and his/her permissions have been sufficiently enhanced.

Otherwise, even if they couldn't find the information, they wouldn't have been warned.

If "Ming" were a strategist at the level of Saint, with wisdom sufficient to influence the rise and fall of elementary and Intermediate Galactic Human Empire, he wouldn't be subject to the special protection of the Virtual Network World.

"Alright, let's ignore this 'Ming'; he's destined for great things."

The middle-aged man spoke, then vanished, leaving the Community World.

"Will it definitely soar to great heights?"

The Three-Pupil Man was also inexplicably shocked. Even he, one of the Third Ancestor, thought that soaring to the heavens meant something of immense height.

"Wow, so many friend requests."

Just as Su Yuan was about to exit the <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth> world, he discovered that the number of friend requests he had received was increasing at an alarming rate.

In just over a hundred breaths, he broke through the Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame, and Su Yuan's reputation in the strategist circle spread and rose at an explosive speed.

Many other Galactic Human Empire, and even higher -Galactic Human Empire, have cast their gazes toward Su Yuan.

Although "Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth" is a game published by the Canglan Galactic Human Empire, it is constantly under the attention of many other Galactic Human Empire. Once they discover a strategist with potential, they will not hesitate to recruit him.

Prior to this reset cycle, Su Yuan had received numerous attempts to win Su Yuan over, including invitations from groups like the "Galaxy Group" Group.

But Su Yuan refused them all.

So far, Su Yuan has no intention of serving any particular faction.

"If Qingxu, the Information Matrix, hadn't upgraded my privileges, my true identity would have been discovered by now."

Su Yuan thought to himself.

The protection of Empire Citizen' identity information in the Virtual Network World is also relative. Special institutions and forces of advanced Galactic Human Empire have the authority to query the identity information of ordinary Empire Citizen.

Now, with the protection of the Information Matrix Qingxu, Su Yuan's personal identity information can be considered top secret of the Human Race. To view Su Yuan's identity, the Information Matrix must first give its consent.

This layer of protection will greatly benefit Su Yuan, making many things much easier in the future.

"Information Matrix Qingxu?"

Su Primordial Spirit fell into a brief moment of contemplation. The Information Matrix the Virtual Network World, which Su Yuan knew, could be considered immortal in a narrow Longevity, and was one of the true foundations of the Human Race.

It's important to understand that even Cosmic Saint are far from immortal. For example, the Great Sage Wuji, who was hailed as having the best defense in that era countless ages ago, still died in the depths of the Abyss.

These friend requests.

Su Yuan looked at the application list and selected hundreds of applications to approve.

These hundreds of applicants are all people who will be able to help Su Yuan in the distant future.

Shortly after receiving the friend request, one of the Empire Citizen named "Jitian" applied to enter Su Yuan's personal space.

"Jitian."

A strange light flickered in Su Yuan's eyes.

Of the hundreds of people who accepted his friend request, "Jitian" was the one he valued the most.

Because the other party is a Cosmic Saint.

He is not merely a Cosmic Saint; in the near future, he will establish a Galactic Human Empire, further expanding the territory of the Human Race.

It's important to understand that the price to pay for establishing a Galactic Human Empire, even Primary Galactic Human Empire, is unimaginable.

At least back then, the Great Sage Wuji did not have the idea of establishing Galactic Human Empire, not because he lacked the strength, but because the cost was too high.

To establish Galactic Human Empire, we must first seize a large territory from other races to serve as the foundation for the empire's development.

But these alien races aren't exactly benevolent; can their territory be seized so easily? Which of the alien races that have survived to this day is easy to mess with? What if you end up losing everything in the process?

In this process, the Human Race will not provide much assistance. After all, once the Human Race intervenes, the significance will change, and it will alert other powerful races.

Secondly, even if you seize territory, you need enough manpower to manage and defend it.

Conquering a country is easier than maintaining it.

The same principle applies to establishing Galactic Human Empire.

In short, it is extremely difficult to establish a new Galactic Human Empire. Over countless ages, apart from the Three Higher Galactic Human Empires, there are currently only thirty-three Galactic Human Empire that exist.

Buzz!

In his personal space, Su Yuan sat in a chair, looking at the figures gathering in the distance.

He was a man with gentle eyes, yet he exuded no aura whatsoever, appearing just like an ordinary Empire Citizen.

However, Su Yuan knew for certain that the other party had completely concealed all of their aura, demonstrating absolute control over their power.

As a supreme Cosmic Saint, Jitian's true strength was in no way inferior to that of the Great Sage Wuji; otherwise, he would not have been able to establish a Galactic Human Empire so soon.

"Mr. Ming, I hope I haven't disturbed you?"

The man with gentle eyes spoke to Jitian, in an extremely polite manner.

"No."

Su Yuan smiled as he observed Jitian, or more precisely, through the Grey Mirror, watching every detail of the other's future.

"I was deeply impressed to see Mr. Ming break through the Thousand Illusions and Myriad Phases Endgame in just over a hundred breaths, which is why I came to pay my respects," Jitian said.

Su Yuan remained calm.

He knew perfectly well, through the Grey Mirror, the true purpose of Jitian's visit.

That's why I agreed to meet with them.

The two talked for a while.

Su Yuan then spoke up, saying, "Mr. Jitian, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask, and I will answer them to the best of my ability."

"Mr. Ming is a straightforward and honest person."

Jitian sighed. He had been somewhat hesitant at first, but after Su Yuan's explanation, he decided to ask him for advice.

"Mr. Ming, please take a look."

Jitian stretched out his right hand, and a huge star map appeared before the two of them.
