Abandonment

"Brother Chu, isn't this place nice?"

"It possesses endless treasures and cultivation resources."

"The rules and principles manifest themselves, allowing for complete comprehension."

"Isn't it infinitely better here than outside?"

With each word spoken, the girl-like "Yi" deepened her control over the surrounding space and time. By the time she finished speaking, she had become the center of this special secret realm, looking down upon "Chu" like a deity.

With control over the secret realm, let alone "Chu" who has only recently become Cosmic Lifeform, even Great Saint would be crushed to dust under the vast and mighty source of the secret realm.

This secret realm is too special. In essence, it was created by a Supreme Being who personally seized a segment of spacetime at the beginning of the Great Universe, which is why it can maintain an environment almost identical to that of the creation era.

To maintain this spacetime, the Supreme Being of Chaos must constantly pay a price.

It can be said that even the son of this Supreme Being of Chaos would hardly receive such treatment.

Su Yuan stood still, quietly watching "Yi".

The key to this labyrinth lies in how to confront this "she".

To forcibly ignore it would only result in being suppressed by the vast secret realm's origin, unable to escape for eternity.

That means the attempt to storm the palace failed.

"Yi."

A smile appeared on Su Yuan's face, as if he hadn't noticed the changes in the surrounding space and time at all. He looked at Yi gently and said, "I have a clan. My clan gave me life and raised me. Now that they are in trouble and need me, it is only natural that I must go back."

"But."

Yi looked somewhat hesitant.

"Don't worry, I'll come back to you once the tribe's predicament is resolved."

Su Yuan said gently.

A strange glint appeared in the depths of his gaze as he looked at Yi.

This kind of maze test has been successfully completed by three of Human Race's top strategists.

Of these three Top Strategist, two failed and one succeeded.

The two who failed both chose to attempt to unravel the spacetime labyrinth that shrouded the special secret realm.

However, as soon as they make a move and show any intention to force their way out, they will be suppressed by the special secret realm and will never have another chance to escape.

"Real?"

Hearing this, Yi's gaze remained fixed on Su Yuan.

"Of course it's true."

Su Yuan smiled and said, "When have I ever lied to you?"

"I see."

After considering for a moment, Yi rested her chin on her hand and finally made up her mind, saying, "Then, Brother Chu, you should go back to your tribe first. Come find Yi again after everything is resolved. Yi will wait for you."

Buzz buzz buzz~

As Yi finished speaking, the surrounding spatial maze dissipated, revealing a passage connecting to the outside world.

"It will be soon."

Su Yuan looked at the girl Yi, then turned around, took a step, and left this special secret realm.

As soon as Su Yuan left the secret realm, a notification sound from the <Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth> world followed.

Congratulations on your approval!

Hearing the notification sound in his ear, Su Yuan fell into deep thought.

The trials of this labyrinth, apart from the fact that the possessed being "Chu," have never appeared in the records of Human Race.

That special secret realm that maintained the environment from the time of creation, and that mysterious girl, Yi, etc.

No matter how I search, I can't find any information.

This trial is the past experience of "Chu," the Supreme Being of Chaos.

Currently, there are hundreds of Top Strategist the Human Race, but only four of them, including Su Yuan, have survived the test of this labyrinth.

Each level of the Ten Thousand Layer Labyrinth is not fixed. Even if they are both facing the same challenge in the thousandth Multi-Layer Labyrinth, the challenges Top Strategist will experience will most likely be different.

"Early"

Su Yuan's thoughts raced. Other Top Strategist, and even the Supreme Being of Demon Mountain and the Supreme Being Futu among the Human Race, knew nothing about that young girl.

But Su Yuan was different. He had already seen everything about this labyrinthine test, as well as many other hidden details, through the Grey Mirror.

In the labyrinth trial, the true identity of that girl, Yi, is that of the First God King of the God Race.

To be precise, he is the reincarnation of the First God King who entered the dream world.

The First God King of the God Race was incredibly ancient, and was the second Supreme Being of Chaos born in this Great Cataclysmic Cycle.

This First God King cultivated a secret technique called "Dreaming Through the Ages".

The true body falls into a deep sleep, while a fragment of the true spirit reincarnates into a dream. In this dream state, the First God King will forget all his memories. If the reincarnated dream body can cultivate to the stage of Cosmic Lifeform, the First God King's mental will will be enhanced upon waking.

If one cultivates to the level of Great Saint, the improvement will be even greater.

If one can make the Ultimate Leap again and become the Supreme Being of Chaos, then the strength of the First God King will surpass that of other Supreme Being of Chaos.

In order to make his reincarnation in the dream become the Supreme Being of Chaos, the First God King of the God Race made many preparations before falling into slumber, including that special secret realm, all of which were prepared for his reincarnation in the dream.

"Pity."

Su Yuan shook his head slightly.

The First God King's scheme ultimately failed.

Not only did she fail, but all the preparations she made for her reincarnation into the dream body became resources for Chu. Chu was able to become the first Supreme Being of Chaos of the Human Race mainly because of the "preparations" of the First God King.

Furthermore, the First God King's scheme not only failed, but after reclaiming his reincarnated self from the dream world, he also developed inner demons as a result.

From then on, the God Race and the Human Race were sworn enemies. The First God King of the God Race tried to suppress the Human Race several times during its rise.

Even now, when the Human Race launches Pioneering War, it is the God Race are the first to secretly intervene and stop it.

The highest level of the Great Universe.

A majestic and imposing figure is gazing beyond the universe.

Just as Su Yuan successfully passed the 1098th level of the maze, the majestic figure seemed to sense something and glanced down.

"Early."

Just then, an Illusion figure materialized, which was none other than the Information Matrix, Qingxu.

As Rule Lifeform of the Supreme Rule of Illusion, Qingxu is equivalent to the Supreme Being of Chaos, and can appear anywhere in the Great Universe in the blink of an eye.

Wherever the Supreme Rule of Illusion are applied, that is Qingxu's backyard.

"You've overcome the maze formed by that experience of yours once again," Qingxu said with a smile.

The reason He was able to be conceived successfully was because of Chu. Therefore, Qingxu knew many of Chu's secrets, including his relationship with the First God King of the God Race.

"The way to get through it is the same as your choice."

Qingxu continued.

The method used to leave that special secret realm was the same as Su Yuan's: by using the excuse of returning, he got Yi to open the passage to the outside world.

In fact, after resolving the predicament of the Human Race, Chu did return to that special secret realm, as it was extremely beneficial for cultivation.

What happened next was entirely predictable; Chu and Yi developed feelings for each other.

"Have you ever regretted it, Chu?"

Qingxu looked at Chu and asked in a low voice.

"Regret?"

At first, it seemed as if they had heard something ridiculous, and they burst into laughter.

Looking back, when he was about to Ultimate Leap, the First God King of the God Race awoke and, in exchange for completely severing his reincarnated body in the dream, he returned the breakthrough treasure.

At that time, all he had to do was nod, give up the Ultimate Leap, and give up that breakthrough treasure.

That way, she could break free from the First God King's control and live happily ever after with him.

The First God King even promised to integrate the Human Race into the God Race, so that they could share everything in the Great Universe with the God Race.

However, in the end, Chu's choice was ruthless. Without the slightest hesitation, he took the Ultimate Leap, watching helplessly as Yi completely merged into the First God King's vast Sea of Heart and Mind.

Once he put his thoughts aside, he realized he had never regretted his choice.

Human Race is weak and needs a Supreme Being of Chaos. Anyone who can become the Supreme Being of Chaos will be willing to sacrifice everything, even personal love.

In the vast universe, to survive, one must always give up something.

If he doesn't abandon it, then countless descendants of Human Race will have to abandon it.

Assimilation into the God Race? Would that still be Human Race?

The rise of the Human Race came at a tremendous cost. A flood of information flashed through Su Yuan's mind, and he knew better than anyone how difficult it had been for the Human Race to achieve its current status.

"The 1099th level."

Su Yuan began his journey through the first level of the maze.

A moment later.

Su Yuan then completed the 1,100th level of the maze.

Conquer ten mazes, and you can choose a treasure reward for each maze.

Su Yuan primarily selected external resources that could promote his evolutionary cultivation.

After all, Su Yuan has almost nothing to lack now, except for a great need for resources.

The ancestral home of the Heavenly Phoenix clan.

The ancestral land was exceptionally lively on this day, as Feng Lingzhu, the youngest daughter of the Heavenly Phoenix Patriarch, was getting married.

Her husband, Feng Lingzhu, was also a prodigy of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, named Ye Kunlun.

As an ancient and powerful clan, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, at its peak, was on par with the God Race Clan, ranking among the top clans in the Great Universe.

Later, their own Phoenix Ancestor mysteriously disappeared. Without the Phoenix Ancestor's presence, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan became low-key and fell from the top level of clan power.

Even so, no top clan dared to provoke the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, since the Phoenix Ancestor had only disappeared, not perished.

That is why so many powerful figures came to congratulate Feng Lingzhu on her wedding. All Seven Peak Clans sent people to offer their congratulations, in addition to numerous other forces and lone experts.

"Lingzhu, we can finally be together forever."

Ye Kunlun looked at Feng Lingzhu sitting beside him, his expression excited.

The fact that the Heavenly Phoenix Patriarch was willing to hold such a grand wedding and invite forces from all corners of the universe signifies his complete acceptance of him.

How could Ye Kunlun not be excited?

"Kunlun, your Human Race has sent a Great Saint to offer congratulations. Would you like to have a chat with him?" Feng Lingzhu asked considerately.

Almost no one knew that Ye Kunlun came from the Human Race. Even within the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, only the patriarch and a few elders knew. As for the Human Race...?

The people of Ye Kunlun's Hometown, Blue Star, didn't even know that the Heavenly Phoenix Clan was holding a wedding, let alone come to congratulate Ye Kunlun.

"Human Race. Forget about it."

Ye Kunlun shook his head. He didn't really feel much belonging to the Human Race; he only had feelings for Blue Star.

And now, Blue Star is developing rapidly, which Ye Kunlun sees in his heart.

"By the way, Lingzhu, for our wedding, I'd like to take you to meet the Lord."

Ye Kunlun seemed to have thought of something and spoke up.

"My lord? The one you always mention to me?"

Feng Lingzhu became interested.

Ye Kunlun had occasionally mentioned Su Yuan to her.

According to Ye Kunlun, Su Yuan was almost omnipotent; without Su Yuan, Ye Kunlun would have died long ago.

Ye Kunlun's admiration for Su Yuan also made Feng Lingzhu think more highly of Su Yuan.

"Okay, I'll go with you to see him."

"Feng Lingzhu said."

She was also quite curious about the "adult" Ye Kunlun mentioned.

"Okay, let's enter the Virtual Network World."

Ye Kunlun immediately extended his consciousness beyond his ancestral land, connecting to the Virtual Network World.

The Heavenly Phoenix Clan's ancestral lands are isolated from time and space; even virtual networks cannot penetrate them. To connect to the virtual network, one must extend their mental consciousness beyond the ancestral lands.

The Virtual Network World, personal space.

Su Yuan leaned back in his chair and glanced at the notification that Ye Kunlun had applied to join.

Su Yuan naturally understood why Ye Kunlun was looking for him at this time; it was simply because it was Ye Kunlun's big day, and he had brought the Feng Lingzhu to visit him.

"Agree."

Su Yuan agreed.

Ye Kunlun and Feng Lingzhu appeared not far away.

"Grown ups."

Ye Kunlun remained extremely respectful, showing no pride whatsoever despite becoming the consort of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.

"My lord."

Feng Lingzhu also greeted him, while secretly observing Su Yuan.

As the little princess of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, Feng Lingzhu naturally did not have the same heartfelt reverence for Su Yuan as Ye Kunlun did.

"Um."

Su Yuan looked at Ye Kunlun and Feng Lingzhu and smiled, "Congratulations to you both."

After chatting for a while, Su Yuan took the initiative to say, "You're all busy today, go do your own things."

"Yes."

Ye Kunlun stood up, and Feng Lingzhu followed suit.

"Ye Kunlun," Su Yuan, giving Ye Kunlun a meaningful look one last time, "Cherish everything you have now."

"Good."

Ye Kunlun didn't think much of it, simply assuming it was a blessing from Su Yuan.

Once Feng Lingzhu and Ye Kunlun leave the Virtual Network World.

"Lingzhu, the master seems to have a good impression of you," Ye Kunlun thought to himself with delight.

"Kunlun, your master must be quite extraordinary," Feng Lingzhu said earnestly.

Originally, she didn't care much about Su Yuan; she only thought highly of him because of Ye Kunlun.

After all, according to Ye Kunlun's description, Su Yuan is most likely also a life form from Blue Star.

What powerful beings could possibly emerge from a backward planet like Blue Star?

From their conversation just now, Feng Lingzhu vaguely sensed that Su Yuan's knowledge was so vast that it was not much different from her father's.

"Not simple?" Ye Kunlun said matter-of-factly, "Of course, you are not simple."

"You fool." Feng Lingzhu sighed, then, thinking of Ye Kunlun's great fortune, which allowed him to directly cultivate the <Heavenly Phoenix Nine-Turn Nirvana Holy Technique> to the sixth revolution, she suddenly felt it was quite normal.

Such a chosen one, even if living on a backward planet, can attract powerful beings from the universe to protect and escort him.

In Feng Lingzhu's view, Su Yuan was a powerful figure attracted by Ye Kunlun's fortune, and might even be an ancient Saint.
