Yuxiang Mountain Public Region.

Inside an elegant hotel.

Yang Yu was chatting and laughing with Ai Chen at that moment.

"Are you saying that Luo Feng is one of your people? Or that he comes from the same planet as you?"

At this moment, a stunningly beautiful girl dressed in White Feather Robe, with a pair of pure white wings on her back and a Brilliant Crystal on her forehead, covered her mouth in surprise, her bright eyes filled with astonishment.

"Haha, yes, not only Luo Feng, but also 'Hong' and 'Dong Nanbiao' from our Earth Faction entered the Virtual Universe Company this time, except that the two of them entered the Endless Secret Realm."

Yang Yu was delighted to see Ai Chen so surprised.

Originally, it was thought that Luo Feng would be the same as before, and it would be good enough if he could enter the Taichu Secret Realm. But unexpectedly, this kid received the best training from the beginning. In addition, with the Golden Horned Behemoth Clone and the Mosha Clan Clone, he suddenly burst out with such great energy and directly entered the Primal Secret Realm!

Moreover, Hong and Dong Nanbiao were also unexpected surprises.

"Brother Yu!" Just as Yang Yu and Ai Chen were chatting and laughing, Luo Feng's surprised voice rang out.

"Xiao Feng, over here!"

Yang Yu stood up and greeted them.

After everyone was seated, Yang Yu began to introduce them one by one.

After getting to know each other, Luo Feng and the others realized that this girl, known as the 'Light Sword Beauty,' had actually known Yang Yu for decades.

Now the group even sits together to eat and chat.

This has led everyone to exclaim at the wonder of fate.

"Our Earth Faction performed very well in this Genius Competition. Everyone, remember to keep up the good work and never become complacent," Yang Yu said.

"You need to understand that joining the Virtual Universe Company doesn't mean you can just lie back; on the contrary, the competition will be even fiercer! You'll be facing competition from geniuses across the entire Human of the Universe, and if you're not careful, you could be left far behind."

Ai Chen and the others listened attentively to Yang Yu's words.

"Within the Virtual Universe Company, for the first thirty years you can cultivate peacefully in the Chaos City of the Initial Universe, just like I am now. But once you leave the Initial Universe, the competition will begin."

"If you don't cultivate diligently, the Qualification Battle for the Universe Level takes place every hundred years. If you rank last, you're likely to fall into the next secret realm."

"A hundred years?" Luo Feng was taken aback.

It's important to understand that the lifespan of Universe Level powerhouse is 100,000 years; 100 years is simply too short.

"Yes, so you especially can't let your guard down, Luo Feng. I'm one of the old-timers in the Universe Level Primal Secret Realm now," Yang Yu said with a smile. "If you don't work hard, I might be the one to personally send you to the Taichu Secret Realm."

"Haha, that would be interesting if it really happened. But judging from what Xiao Yu said, the training at this Virtual Universe Company is really rigorous," Dong Nanbiao laughed.

"Of course it has to be strict. Virtual Universe Company recruits a batch of geniuses every ten thousand years. Over the years, the cumulative number must be astonishing. The resources required to cultivate such geniuses are also enormous, so the internal elimination mechanism must be very intense," Ai Chen said with a smile.

Let alone the Virtual Universe Company, the competition within their own clan is extremely fierce.

"Ai Chen is right. The Virtual Universe Company can't afford to waste resources, so we must work even harder in our cultivation from now on," Yang Yu said. "Come on, let's raise a glass together to celebrate our gathering at Yuxiang Mountain!"

"Raise a glass!"

"Raise a glass!"

Yang Yu then talked a lot with Ai Chen and the others, sharing a lot of common knowledge about joining the Virtual Universe Company.

For example, don't spend all the Points you get at once. Buy some commonly used Secret Technique first and practice them while traveling. Save the Points and wait until you arrive in the Initial Universe, choose the Chaos Monument, and determine your cultivation path before allocating them.

Furthermore, one cannot be careless when hunting Chaos Beast in the Initial Universe, as many geniuses have died at the hands of Chaos Beast each time.

Yang Yu recounted all these important and trivial matters to the group in detail.

"Then I'll be waiting for you all in Chaos City!"

Yang Yu then smiled and left the Virtual Universe to continue his secluded cultivation. By the time Ai Chen and Luo Feng arrived, it would be another year later in the Initial Universe.

Seeing Yang Yu leave, Ai Chen and the others also left Yuxiang Mountain, as they still had many things to deal with in reality.

Back to reality.

Luo Feng and his colleagues were overwhelmed by a massive number of emails and call requests.

There was no other way but to reply one by one in order of importance.

During this time, Luo Feng and his companions also met the immortal envoy from the Ganwu Universe Country in the Virtual Universe.

This time, the envoy was very friendly. In the midst of conversation, he gifted Luo Feng two star systems, both located near the Milky Way Galaxy, and also gave Hong and Dong Nanbiao tens of thousands of Life Planet.

They also provided a large number of subordinates and servants to help Luo Feng and his companions manage their businesses, and all Luo Feng and his companions needed to do was sign the documents.

Naturally, none of them would refuse such a good opportunity.

After all, as the Huaxia People continue to multiply, the resulting population explosion necessitates a large amount of territory.

After this matter was resolved, external affairs were temporarily put to rest.

Luo Feng and his group spent two days with their families before boarding a spaceship together to travel to Qiu Long Planet.

Ten days later.

Two ancient, jet-black spaceships, resembling ancient swords, hovered above the Xinghai Residential Complex of Qiu Long City.

Both spaceships are sword-shaped, measuring approximately 600 meters long, 100 meters wide, and nearly 100 meters thick.

Luo Feng and the others could faintly sense the ancient aura emanating from these two spaceships, as if they had existed for a very, very long River of Time.

Then, two groups of people flew out from the front hatch of the spaceship. One of them had an exceptionally powerful aura and was clearly an immortal being!

He was wearing Silver Battle Suit, with silver scales on his forehead; otherwise, he looked quite similar to Earthlings.

The other group was led by a lean, hook-nosed old man who looked almost exactly like an Earthlings, wearing Black Battle Suit.

He has short, neat hair, a smiling face, and an Ice and Snow Mark between his brows. He is a World Lord recognized by the Cosmic Origin Law.

"La Wushu greets Your Highness Luo Feng!" The silver-scaled immortal with a profound and powerful aura said respectfully to Luo Feng. At the same time, a large group of guards behind him also bowed respectfully.

On the other side.

"Silong greets His Your Highness Hong and Dong Nanbiao!" The lean old man bowed slightly. "Since both His Your Highness are together and are both members of the Endless Secret Realm, I will be escorting them together this time."

Seeing this Luo Feng and his two companions nodded slightly, and after bidding farewell to their relatives and friends, they each boarded the War Sword spaceship.

As the spaceship hatches closed, the two spaceships slowly departed from Qiu Long Planet.

Xu Xin, Luo Hongguo, Wang Lin, and the others who were standing on the lawn of the villas in Xinghai Residential Complex then returned to their respective homes.

Inside the Spaceship Hall.

The group, who had already entered the Dark Universe, sat in the hall chatting idly.

"This spaceship is really good; its acceleration is much better than the spaceships we bought ourselves," Dong Nanbiao said happily, looking around.

"Your Highness may not know, but the spaceship we are on is entirely forged from F-grade Metal Guiyan Stone Mother, and its flight speed can reach 20 times the Light Speed. It cannot be bought with money alone in the outside world," the lean old man Silong said with a smile.

"Tsk tsk, F-grade Metal, 20 times the Light Speed." Dong Nanbiao exclaimed in amazement.

Silong then introduced the two to many common-sense aspects of Virtual Company.

On another spaceship, La Wushu was also introducing the Virtual Universe Company to Luo Feng.

Many of these were the same as what Yang Yu had told them before, but not as in-depth as Yang Yu's explanations.

Subsequently, under their guidance, Luo Feng and the other two entered the 'Primal Secret Realm' and 'Endless Secret Realm' cultivation areas in the Virtual Universe's Yuxiang Mountain.

Here they witnessed what a truly superior cultivation environment is!

After marveling at their skills, the three of them each selected a Secret Technique from the Virtual Universe Company's internal Treasure Vault, preparing to diligently cultivate it during their three-year journey.

At Yang Yu's suggestion, Luo Feng spent 1,000 Points to buy a relatively basic Secret Technique to aid in comprehending the Space Origin Law.

Luo Feng kept the remaining Points for later, when he had decided on his cultivation path, to use them on more important things.

Like Dong Nanbiao, Hong also purchased the basic Secret Technique to aid in comprehending the fundamental Light Origin Law and Earth Origin Law, at Yang Yu's suggestion.

Since neither of them had many Points to begin with, this time they had basically used them all up.

But there's nothing we can do about it; after all, skill is the most important thing. As long as you keep improving, you'll never lack Points.

Time passed.

Three years passed quickly.

After the two warships completed their Universe Shuttle, they slowly entered the Original Universe.

A 'Super Continent' suddenly appeared in the starry sky ahead.

It was none other than the global headquarters of Virtual Universe Company.

After listening to the introductions from La Wushu and Silong, and receiving the items that needed to be traded in the real world, Luo Feng and his companions arrived at an oval-shaped hall.

A large crowd had already gathered here.

"Luo Feng."

"Madman, you've arrived."

"Haha, Madman."

"Flood!"

"Dong Nanbiao!"

As soon as Luo Feng and his two companions entered, they were immediately greeted by many people.

"Long Yun, Wuka, Ai Chen, Jack, and Xien."

Luo Feng and his two companions greeted the geniuses with smiles. Having spent three years cultivating diligently at Yuxiang Mountain, they, as the same group of young people who entered the Virtual Universe Company at the same time, naturally had many exchanges.

"Boluo." Luo Feng saw the young man in white sitting by the window and called out with a smile.

The young man in white turned his head and glanced at them. "Yes, you've come too."

Boluo greeted Luo Feng and the other two, then turned back to silently gaze at the scenery outside.

During his three years at Yuxiang Mountain, "Death God" Boluo remained very reclusive, maintaining only slight contact with a dozen or so people, but rarely speaking to them.

However, after exchanging blows with Luo Feng several times in the Virtual Universe and discovering that Luo Feng's progress was exceptionally rapid, the aloof and arrogant Boluo also began to pay slight attention to Luo Feng.

As a result, they also began to treat Hong and Dong Nanbiao, who were also from Earth, differently.

Besides, Luo Feng and his two companions also had a good relationship with Prince Wuka of Prince of Manka Star and the Savage Rong Jun.

Of course, because of Yang Yu, they also had a good relationship with Ai Chen.

After about six hours, all 1,000 people had gathered.

"Everyone, please follow me."

When all 1,000 people had gathered, a tall, thin man with red eyes, shrouded in an elegant white robe, spoke in a hoarse voice.

The faintly pervasive aura filled the hearts of the 1,000 young people with trepidation, as if they had encountered an incredibly terrifying venomous snake.

After the tall, thin man with red eyes left the hall, he immediately unleashed a powerful and irresistible force that enveloped the 1,000 young people present.

Whoosh!

In an instant, it transformed into Liuguang and flew for several minutes before arriving in front of a strange spaceship parked on the lawn, where it finally unloaded the 1,000 young people.

"Call."

Luo Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. The inescapable chilling feeling he had just experienced was indeed unsettling, as were the other geniuses around him.

"Everyone, please board the spaceship," the tall, thin man with red eyes said coldly.

Luo Feng looked up and saw a strange spaceship in front of him.

"Is this a spaceship?" Luo Feng was taken aback. The spaceship in front of him was too peculiar, because it was shaped like a giant fish!

The enormous, deep blue fish, with its tail fin still swaying slightly, was nearly a thousand meters long. However, this 'giant fish' spaceship had an open hatch on its belly, through which the corridor inside could be seen.

"This must be the G-Class Ship that Brother Yu once mentioned, which has fused with Immortal Level Metal Lifeform," Luo Feng exclaimed.

"A G-Class Ship F-grade Spaceship!"

Hong and Dong Nanbiao, standing to the side, were also stunned as they stared at the enormous fish-shaped spaceship in front of them.

Stunned!

Of the 1,000 geniuses, apart from a very few who seemed to know about this kind of spaceship, the rest looked completely bewildered. Urged on by the tall, thin man with red eyes, they entered one by one through the hatch.

Inside the lobby.

An invisible pressure kept the 1,000 geniuses from making a sound, and even the other dozen or so immortal beings on the spaceship, including the tall, thin man with red eyes, bowed slightly.

Luo Feng immediately spotted the Nine Swords Venerable standing at the very front, dressed in Green Battle Robe.

Although he was just standing there quietly, there was a sense of emptiness about him, making people feel as if he were a virtual projection, not a real person.

The Nine Swords Venerable looked at the group of young people and said after a moment:

"Let's set off for the Initial Universe."

Boom!

The giant fish-shaped spaceship vanished from its spot in an instant with a flick of its tail fin.

A moment later.

"It is I who opened the Cosmic Passage!" the Nine Swords Venerable said indifferently.

The sound penetrated the spaceship and reached the outside world.

"Boom!"

A deep voice sounded from the outside, and then the spaceship continued its journey.

"Um?"

"This feels awful."

"Time distortion?"

Luo Feng and the other two were pale-faced, and waves of dizziness and disorientation washed over them. This feeling was very similar to the feeling they had when Yang Yu the Time Law to attack them during their sparring session.

This clearly demonstrates the impact of repeatedly altering the Time Flow Rate within a very short period on human consciousness.

The other geniuses were also pale, and Ai Chen's pretty face couldn't hide her pain.

"We are now in the passage between the Initial Universe and the Original Universe," said the Nine Swords Venerable, looking at a group of pale-faced young people, some of whom had collapsed to the ground.

"The Time Flow Rate in the Initial Universe is different from that in the Original Universe, which causes a disruption in the Time Flow Rate within the passage, making you feel somewhat uncomfortable."

Of 1,000 young people, only about 300 could barely stand.

It took about five or six minutes for the discomfort to subside.

Luo Feng and the others then fully regained their senses.

"We have now entered the Initial Universe."

Seeing that everyone had returned to normal, the Nine Swords Venerable smiled slightly.
