"Fenglei Sect?"

Yang Yu looked at the old man in front of him, secretly delighted.

This place truly lives up to its ancient heritage; I made the right choice coming here!

"Little one, you can call me Lord Xuan Yi. My full name is Wind and Xuan Yi!"

The old man, who looked remarkably like a human, chuckled. "As Universe Master, you possess such a strong will, and judging from the energy fluctuations emanating from you, they are primarily based on the Lightning Law. Truly impressive."

The old man looked at Yang Yu with nothing but admiration.

"Greetings, Lord Xuan Yi. What is this Fenglei Sect?"

Yang Yu asked, puzzled.

"Haha, that's where the story begins," the old man said, stroking his long white beard as he continued with a laugh.

"Our Fenglei Sect is a sect with an extremely long history and many powerful figures. Our First Sect Master was a true powerhouse who ruled over a vast territory. Our sect's ultimate technique is the 'Nine Transformations of Wind and Thunder,' which was renowned even in Ancient Civilization. With this technique, our Fenglei Sect was one of the most powerful forces in the Wu Kingdom. However, with that expedition, all the glory and power that our sect had accumulated over the years vanished."

At this point, a hint of sadness appeared in the old man's eyes. "Actually, I also perished in that great battle back then. What I am now is just a Virtual Consciousness of mine. It's all so that when the Fenglei Sect's Inheritance Ship opens, it can find a suitable Heir."

"Little one, as the first to open the gate of inheritance, you are qualified to be given priority to undergo the inheritance test of my Fenglei Sect!"

"Lord Xuan Yi, please enlighten me," Yang Yu said respectfully. He was quite interested in the inheritance of the Fenglei Sect.

After all, this is a God King Level Inheritance that is no less powerful than Duan Donghe's, and it also has specialized offensive techniques.

Moreover, as a remnant of a complete sect, its lineage information is undoubtedly very complete.

Although the Thunder Inheritance is stronger, perhaps because the mysterious and powerful figure who left behind this legacy wanted to hone the Successor, aside from Talent Secret Technique and an endless supply of books and theories, there are no other unique skills.

This means that Yang Yu has to find his own way to learn from other unique skills.

The Fenglei Sect has appeared at just the right time.

"The conditions are very simple. When selecting Successor, our Fenglei Sect values two things: potential and willpower!"

The old man smiled and said, "You are very young, and your Real Law Realm is only at the Venerable, but your will has reached the True God Level, and you are even ranked in the upper-middle range among True God. This is very rare. You have fully met the requirements in terms of will."

"What are the criteria for assessing potential?" Yang Yu's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"It's quite simple," the old man chuckled. "Since you're at the Venerable Realm, you only need to create Secret Technique that marks the initial entry into the True God Level. In your Universe Ocean's terms, that would be Sixth-Order Secret Technique."

"Secret Technique at the sixth rank of True God Level?"

"Haha, right, if you don't know what True God is, you can take a look at this information first." The old man waved his hand, and a small pebble that shimmered with a ghostly light flew towards Yang Yu.

"In my hometown, this is called the Memory Stone. It can record a vast amount of information. Take a look."

"Thank you, Lord Xuan Yi," Yang Yu said respectfully. He then took the pebble and probed it with his mind.

Moment.

A torrent of information flooded into Yang Yu's Consciousness Sea.

The Memory Stone contains common knowledge about the Origin Continent, most of which Yang Yu had seen in the Inheritance Palace.

A moment later.

Yang Yu opened his eyes. "So this is the Secret Technique of the True God Level, Lord Xuan Yi, please take a look."

As he spoke, Yang Yu took out the Thunderfall Blade, and with a flick of his wrist, a chilling blade of light appeared.

The moment the blade of light appeared, even though the old man was Virtual Consciousness, he sensed an extremely sharp aura emanating from it.

"Could it be?" Xuan Yi looked at Yang Yu with an incredulous expression.

Then, the blade of light flew forward with extreme concentration, cutting a very fine crack in the space along its path.

If one were not paying close attention, even this crack would go unnoticed.

"Phew~"

When the blade had flown a short distance and was about to touch the edge of the control room, Yang Yu detonated the extremely restrained energy within it, causing the energy to explode.

Seeing this, the Xuan Yi waved its hand, and a ball of gentle energy appeared, neutralizing the high-level light of the Seventh Order Level.

"Blade Technique at the mid-level of True God?" After the violent Lightning Energy completely dissipated, Xuan Yi looked at Yang Yu in shock, "Are you really a Law Venerable?"

Although it is only Virtual Consciousness, it possesses all of Xuan Yi's memories and wisdom from his previous life, and his personality and other traits are no different from those of an ordinary person.

In the Origin Continent, it's legendary that someone at the Venerable Realm could create a Seventh Order Level Blade Technique!

Even if the Universe Master could create Seventh Order Blade Technique, it would be extremely rare. At the very least, he could easily become the next leader of Sect Master like the Fenglei Sect, whose strongest Sect Master in history was only at the God King First Order.

On the Origin Continent, the difference between God King - God King is also very large.

The difference between an ordinary God King First Order and a seasoned God King Second Order is vast, both in terms of survival ability and combat prowess.

The territories they ruled and the forces under their command were worlds apart.

Geniuses of Yang Yu's caliber are more likely to choose to join a truly powerful God Kingdom, or directly join the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom or the Thunder Ancient Kingdom.

And now he's suddenly encountered such an amazing genius in the Universe Ocean?

The Xuan Yi even thought he was dreaming!

It should be noted that the most talented and strongest First Sect Master in the history of the Fenglei Sect only created Secret Technique at the True God Level when he was at the Universe Master stage.

They are nowhere near as good as this 'native' of the Universe Ocean!

"Could he be the reincarnation of a God King?" As the 99th Sect Master of the Fenglei Sect, Xuan Yi was a Chaos Realm expert in his previous life.

Although he was just an ordinary expert in the Chaos Realm, he knew the Reincarnation Secret Technique.

On the Origin Continent, many God King chose to use the Reincarnation Secret Technique to be reborn in order to escape the pursuit of their enemies.

Having cultivated to the God King in his previous life, his talent for cultivation was undoubtedly exceptionally strong.

It's not surprising at all that Venerable Stage could create such Secret Technique.

But what puzzled the Xuan Yi was that the boy before it was clearly not the reincarnation of the God King.

If it were truly an ancient God King reincarnated in this Universe Ocean, then there would be no need for the arduous exploration of various dangerous places!

His memories contained countless extremely advanced Secret Technique and inheritances!

Moreover, judging from Yang Yu's performance, Xuan Yi was certain that the opponent was not God King, or a reincarnation of a Chaos Realm Peak expert.

So it's quite obvious.

What's right in front of you is a genuine genius!

A true genius who would be fought over by various forces even if placed on the Origin Continent!

"We've struck gold!" Xuan Yi's deep eyes shone with boundless joy. "As long as we can make this person the Fenglei Inheritance, the sect's revival will only be a matter of time!"

It sounds slow, but for a powerful being like Xuan Yi, a mere thought could encompass countless possibilities.

"Yang Yu, is it?" Xuan Yi's aged face was now filled with joy. "The Blade Technique you used has indeed reached the True God Level, and it's not bad even among True God. You are fully qualified to become the Successor of my Fenglei Sect!"

"Yang Yu, are you willing?"

The Xuan Yi looked at Yang Yu expectantly and asked.

"I do!"

Yang Yu said loudly.

Just kidding, with a complete inheritance at the God King Level right in front of me, I definitely need it!

While the Thunder Inheritance is valuable, it's only a kind of inheritance similar to Talent Secret Technique; the Memory Palace contains only a vast collection of ancient texts.

Apart from that, there was absolutely no external assistance whatsoever—no Inheritance Hall to aid cultivation, no weapons or treasures that should have been left for the Successor, and so on.

The Strongest in the history of the Fenglei Sect was only at the God King First Order, which could only be considered a third-rate force on the Origin Continent, but it was an absolute behemoth in the Universe Ocean.

After all, it's a power that once produced God King, so it still has some foundation.

Moreover, this clearly modified Tomb Ship may very well contain the Inheritance Space of the Fenglei Sect!

A space where Time Acceleration ten thousand times, and which has the most complete Cultivation System!

"Hahaha, great!" Upon hearing Yang Yu's agreement, Xuan Yi burst into unrestrained laughter.

"Finally! After countless epochs of wandering in the Universe Ocean, I have finally found a suitable Successor! As long as you, Yang Yu, do not perish along the way, my Fenglei Sect is destined to rise again!"

Xuan Yi excitedly said, "With the support of my Fenglei Sect's foundation, passing through the cycle of reincarnation will be a piece of cake! You will become a true powerhouse in the future."

"Come, follow me!" The Xuan Yi rose up, and a large hand formed of light and shadow reached out to grab Yang Yu.

The surrounding energy immediately converged, forming a tangible hand that pulled Yang Yu forward.

Yang Yu did not resist and followed the Xuan Yi toward the back of the Tomb Ship's control room.

A spatial entrance appeared there, filled with various Origin Law and energies, shimmering with multicolored light.

"Whoosh~"

One step.

The two then disappeared from the control room, and after a brief shift in time and space...

When they reappeared, the two had arrived at a vibrant plain filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.

In the center of the plain stands a giant Humanoid Statue.

Looking at the endless, vast plains, the raging hurricanes and boundless lightning on the distant horizon, Yang Yu felt a secret joy.

"Lord Xuan Yi, where is this place?" Yang Yu asked.

"Haha, you don't need to call me 'Master' anymore. I was the previous Sect Master of the Fenglei Sect, and you will soon be the next Sect Master. You can just call me 'Teacher'."

Xuan Yi said happily, "The statue in the center is that of the Founding Sect Master of my Fenglei Sect. Let's go, the truly important place of my Fenglei Sect is at the end of the road ahead."

As they spoke, Xuan Yi pulled Yang Yu along for another step, and the two arrived at a large hall where blue and purple colors intertwined.

Hanging in the center of the hall are the three characters of the Fenglei Sect, Origin Continent.

"Yang Yu, now you only need to successfully recognize this Inheritance Crystal Ball as your master, and you will become the true Heir of my Fenglei Sect." With Xuan Yi of his hand, Xuan Yi sent a Crystal Ball shimmering with a crystal-clear luster flying over.

"Don't worry, your will is now at the True God Level, and the Secret Technique you've comprehended are also at the True God Level. Recognizing a master will be a piece of cake for you."

Xuan Yi smiled and gestured for Yang Yu to take the Crystal Ball.

Yang Yu extended his right claw, and the Crystal Ball came to the center of his claw. "Teacher Xuan Yi, this body is only a Clone of mine. My Original Body is still outside. Will this affect my receiving the inheritance?"

"It doesn't matter. The consciousness of the Original Body and the Clone is the same. Your Clone recognizing you as its master naturally means that your Original Body has also recognized you as its master."

It's not surprising Xuan Yi Yang Yu has Clone; many powerful beings born in the Universe Ocean Primal Universe have Clone.

"You only need to focus a wisp of your mind and probe into the Inheritance Crystal Ball, and you'll know how to operate it."

"Okay." Yang Yu immediately sent a wisp of his consciousness into the Crystal Ball.

"Boom!!!"

The moment Yang Yu's thoughts touched the Crystal Ball, his consciousness was instantly sucked into it.

Once he regained consciousness, Yang Yu looked around.

This place was filled with endless Cyan Energy and Purple Energy.

In the center of this space stands a magnificent palace.

With a thought, Yang Yu appeared in the palace.

"Successor!" A majestic voice suddenly echoed within the palace. "Within ten thousand years, create Sixth-Order Blade Technique imbued with the Wind Law and Lightning Law, based on the clues ahead. Success will grant you the title of the next Sect Master of my Fenglei Sect; failure will result in your expulsion from this space."

As soon as the unfamiliar voice fell, Yang Yu saw a towering mountain formed by Law Pattern in his mind.

As the Law Pattern changed repeatedly, the mysterious Wind Origin Law and Lightning Law appeared and disappeared.

Based on these Law Pattern, Yang Yu can easily combine countless Movement Techniques, Blade Technique, Soul Attack Secret Technique, and so on, all based on the Wind Law and Lightning Law.

The other party only asked him to create Sixth-Order Blade Technique that contained wind and Leidian. Even without the assistance of the Law Pattern, Yang Yu was confident that he could do it!

Having fully integrated the ten Lightning Mystery, Yang Yu's level in the Law Realm was no less than that of the weaker True God. He had also created Sixth-Order Blade Technique containing the Lightning Law. Now, all he needed to do was add the Wind Law, which was naturally very simple.

After all, with the assistance of the Law Pattern of the Fenglei Sect, it's naturally even simpler.

"No wonder the Xuan Yi has so much confidence in me." Yang Yu only watched intently for a while, but he already had a general idea of Blade Technique he was about to create.

Yang Yu then sat cross-legged in the hall, looking at the Law Pattern that appeared in the space in front of him, and began to cultivate in seclusion, mobilizing his Original Body and other Clone.

This period of secluded cultivation.

A thousand years have passed.

For the first hundred years of this thousand-year period, Yang Yu devoted himself to in-depth research into the Wind Origin Law.

Guided by the Law Pattern, and with the combined efforts of his five bodies, Yang Yu deciphered the entire essence and mystery of the Wind Law in just ten years, and then spent the next ninety years perfectly matching and fusing these mysteries together.

Having completed this step, Yang Yu then spent over nine hundred years perfectly integrating and fusing the mysteries of the Wind Law and the Lightning Mystery.

Only then did Yang Yu begin to create his own Blade Technique.

With his previous extensive experience, Yang Yu only spent less than a year integrating the Wind Law into his original Seventh Order Blade Technique, Thunder Slash, to create a Seventh Order Level Blade Technique: 'Fenglei Slash First Form'.

"I didn't expect the Wind Law to be so interesting." Yang Yu smiled as he opened his eyes, and then Cyan Energy and Purple Energy suddenly appeared in front of him, and the two energies began to converge.

As if water and milk were blending together, the originally distinct Wind Energy and Lightning Energy now merged perfectly.

"Freeze!"

Yang Yu's eyes lit up, and he said softly.

Immediately, Cyan Purple Energy War Blade radiating a dangerous aura appeared.

"Fenglei Slash First Form!"

With a flick of his right claw, Yang Yu unleashed Cyan Purple Energy War Blade that slammed into the endless space outside the hall with Heaven Opening force.

"Boom boom boom!"

The moment the Cyan Purple Blade Light appeared, a massive Space Rift, hundreds of millions of miles long, was instantly cleaved open in the endless space ahead.

After a long while.

The space was restored.

That majestic voice appeared once more:

"Congratulations to Yang Yu, the Successor, for passing the test!"
