Domain Lord Hei Ming

"Yang Wu!"

As soon as Yang Wu stepped out of the villa, he met a very enthusiastic Domain Lord Level expert, Hei Ming, who was greeting him.

Since arriving on Laiyin Planet, Yang Wu has been focusing on cultivation, but he has also gotten to know quite a few powerful individuals.

Most Universe Level powerhouses treat him as an equal, while Domain Lord Level powerhouses are unlikely to pay much attention to a mere Star Level 4 kid.

But this Domain Lord Hei Ming was different. He was a solitary Domain Lord Level expert, yet he was extremely warm and welcoming to people.

Since meeting Yang Wu, Hei Ming has given Yang Wu guidance several times in the past month.

The Hei Ming's Flame Domain has reached the eighth level, and through mutual verification, it has greatly helped Yang Wu's cultivation.

"Senior Hei Ming!" Yang Wu greeted him respectfully.

"I just saw several employees from the Universe First Bank leaving here, were they looking for you?" Hei Ming asked with a smile.

Yang Wu replied with a smile, "I just bought a few things!"

"Oh?" A glint flashed in Hei Ming's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

"Yang Wu, are you planning to go to Flame Mountain to cultivate again? You're truly diligent!" Hei Ming exclaimed in admiration.

"Sigh!" Yang Wu sighed and said, "Senior Hei Ming, I have been studying the Flame Mountain for more than a month, but I still can't comprehend the Fourth Layer level of the Flame Domain. Is my talent really that bad?"

"Puff!"

Hearing Yang Wu's words, Hei Ming almost vomited blood!

He, a Domain Lord Level powerhouse, has spent over 900,000 years and has only now comprehended the eighth level of the Flame Domain, thus gaining the opportunity to comprehend the Law of Fire.

Now, a Star Level 4 martial artist who has comprehended Triple Domain before he's even a hundred years old is telling him he thinks his talent is terrible?

If he hadn't needed Yang Wu's help, he would have disappeared from here immediately!

Yes, Hei Ming is already over 900,000 years old, and is very close to the lifespan limit of one million years.

If he cannot comprehend the Law of Fire and break through to the World Lord Level within the next tens of thousands of years, he will perish due to the exhaustion of his lifespan.

Hei Ming came to this Flame Mountain for two reasons: first, to continue his cultivation; and second, to seek refuge with the son of the Immortal God, 'Natie,' in order to receive guidance from an Immortal and increase his chances of comprehending the Law.

Unfortunately, the son of the Immortal God, 'Natie,' looked down on a Domain Lord like him who was about to reach the end of his lifespan!

After all, the other party was also a genius who had reached the ninth level of the Domain in just tens of thousands of years.

Originally, Hei Ming was somewhat desperate and planned to leave Flame Mountain and seek opportunities in other parts of the universe.

But to his surprise, he encountered Yang Wu just as he was about to leave Flame Mountain.

In his view, such a peerless genius who comprehended the Triple Domain of the realm before the age of one hundred must have an incredibly powerful background.

After a month of contact, Hei Ming became even more convinced of this.

From the information Yang Wu inadvertently revealed, Hei Ming became increasingly certain that Yang Wu definitely had a great Immortal God behind him! Even greater than the Immortal God behind Domain Lord 'Natie'.

Of course, this was information Yang Wu deliberately revealed. With the various knowledge he obtained from Chi Yan, doing this wasn't too difficult. He just wanted others to know his background so they wouldn't cause him trouble.

Therefore, Hei Ming had been cultivating a good relationship with Yang Wu, hoping to gain guidance from an Immortal God through this connection.

"Yang Wu!" Hei Ming couldn't help but say, "Your talent is the most extraordinary I've ever seen in reality! In my more than 900,000 years of memories, the Black Hei Ming Black Dragon Mountain Star Area has never seen a genius like you."

"If this Universe Peerless Genius Battle had started a few hundred years later, you, young friend, would probably have had a much better chance of breaking into the top one thousand in the universe!"

During this month, Hei Ming also learned that Yang Wu was not yet thirty years old. It was this discovery that made Hei Ming even more certain that there was definitely a great Immortal standing behind Yang Wu!

In his eyes, no one but a great Immortal being could train such a peerless genius.

"Universe Peerless Genius Battle?"

Yang Wu was somewhat surprised, as this was the first time he had heard this name in real life. Yang Wu couldn't help but ask, "I wonder when the Genius Battle will begin?"

Yang Wu no longer remembered clearly when the Genius Battle started in the original novel, and in the Simulator, he hadn't even lived to see the start of the Genius Battle yet, so he still wanted to find out the exact time.

"Um, I'm not too sure about that either!" Hei Ming said as he accompanied Yang Wu toward the entrance to the World Lord World where Flame Mountain was located. "However, in my memory, it's been almost five thousand years since the last Peerless Genius Battle held at the Giant Axe Fighting Arena."

"So, it seems the time is about right, probably within ten years! If you want to know the specific time, you can directly search for relevant information in the Virtual Universe. With your permissions, it should be very easy for you to find out!"

"Senior Hei Ming!" Yang Wu asked with a smile, "Is it really impossible for me to enter the top 1,000 in the universe?"

"The possibility is extremely low!"

"Even among the top thousand in each of the major Cosmic Nation, hundreds have comprehended the Law. That's a realm that countless Domain Lord lords strive for but cannot attain!"

At this point, a bitter smile appeared on Hei Ming's face.

The differences between people are truly enormous!

A true genius can comprehend the Law in a few hundred years, yet he, a Domain Lord has lived for over nine hundred thousand years, is still inferior to a Star Level genius. Where is the justice in that?

"However, there are thousands of Cosmic Nation in the universe, which means that in each Genius Battle, there are hundreds of thousands of Star Level geniuses who have comprehended the Law! To stand out among these hundreds of thousands and become one of the final thousand, one's understanding of the Law must reach an extremely astonishing level!"

Hei Ming sighed, then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly said, "If you intend to break into the top one thousand in the universe, unless..."

"Unless what?" Yang Wu asked hurriedly.

"Unless your teacher finds you a supreme treasure that allows you to immediately comprehend the Law!"

Hei Ming's eyes were filled with countless exclamations as he slowly said, "In a Universe Peerless Genius Battle hundreds of thousands of years ago, there was an incomparably great Immortal being who prepared an unparalleled treasure for his only son."

"It was just that one treasure that allowed his only son, a mere twenty-something-year-old Star Level- level cultivator, to instantly comprehend the Lightning Domain and reach an extremely profound level."

"In the end, the only son of that Immortal being ranked 673rd in that year's Genius Battle and successfully joined the Virtual Universe Company!"

"However, such a supreme treasure must be incredibly precious. Even Immortal beings would find it extremely difficult to obtain. In my more than nine hundred thousand years of life, I have only heard of it once!"

Yang Wu was also moved after hearing these words.

Although this Hei Ming has lived for over 900,000 years, it probably doesn't know as much about the universe as I do.

The great Immortal he spoke of is probably one of the top figures among those who have reached the King Rank level.

Moreover, that Immortal must have doted on his son immensely. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such an exorbitant cost to help his son break into the top 1,000 in the entire universe.

According to Yang Wu's estimation, it's probably just like how Venerable Shi Huo on his son in the original novel!

However, that Immortal God was clearly not as powerful Venerable Shi Huo, and it is unknown whether his 'peerless genius' son, who broke into the top 1,000 in the entire universe, ultimately achieved Immortal.

"Such a precious treasure is not something my teacher could possibly obtain!" Yang Wu exclaimed to Hei Ming.

Yang Wu was absolutely telling the truth. Even if Hu Yanbo were still alive, he would never have been able to obtain such a precious treasure.

Those who could pay such an astonishing price must at least be experts at the Peak King Level.

"Indeed!" Hei Ming exclaimed from the side, "Even a great Immortal would probably find it difficult to obtain such a treasure."

After hearing Hei Ming's words, Yang Wu finally understood the tragedy of the lone traveler.

In Yang Wu's opinion, Hei Ming probably doesn't even know about the different levels of Immortal yet, which is why he keeps talking about 'great Immortal '.

Perhaps in his eyes, Immortal beings are all great.

This further solidified Yang Wu's determination to join the Virtual Universe Company. Only in this way could he access the world of the stronger beings!

As the two were talking, they arrived at the foot of the Flame Mountain.

Therefore, Yang Wu temporarily separated from his opponent and began to devote himself to comprehending the Flame Domain.
