The Great Battle Was About to Begin
In fact, Yang Wu's speed in comprehending the Law of Gold was quite fast.
In less than a hundred years, Yang Wu's understanding of the Law of Gold improved from the fifth level of the Heavenly Bridge to the sixth level.
Such a speed of comprehension is in no way inferior to that of many Domain Lord Level geniuses in the Primal Secret Region.
The problem is, Yang Wu's cultivation speed was simply terrifying.
In less than a hundred years since leaving Chaos City, Yang Wu's understanding of the Law of Space has advanced from the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge to the Twelfth level. Even his understanding of the Law of Fire has long been recognized by the Origin Law of Fire.
In comparison, Yang Wu's comprehension of the Law of Gold was at a snail's pace.
"Give up! Abandon comprehending the Law of Gold and focus on comprehending the Law of Space!" King Jianhuang sighed.
In King Jianhuang's view, Yang Wu's current focus on comprehending the Law of Gold is a complete waste of his talent.
Even if Yang Wu elevates the Law of Gold to the same level as the Law of Fire, it will have a very limited impact on the increase of Yang Wu's strength.
If Yang Wu had focused on studying the Law of Space, he might be able to continue attempting to cross the Heavenly Bridge by now.
Yang Wu looked at King Jianhuang and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
With the aid of the Time Simulator, Yang Wu could gain the recognition of all Eight Lower Laws before breaking through to the Immortal stage.
In this way, even after he breaks through to Immortal, his speed of comprehending the Law will not slow down much.
After all, the ultimate breakthrough on the path of Law is to integrate the Ten Laws into one and master the Chaos Law.
However, this was the second time that King Jianhuang had brought up the matter of giving up on comprehending the Law of Gold, so Yang Wu could no longer ignore it.
"Teacher!" Yang Wu said respectfully, "If I only master one Lower Law, I will inevitably be countered and restrained when fighting enemies in the future. Therefore, I still want to assist in comprehending the Law of Gold."
King Jianhuang was silent for a moment, then said, "Your strength is still very weak. You can focus on improving your Law of Space first, and then try to comprehend the Law of Gold once you are stronger."
"After all, your talent in the two Origin Law of space and fire far surpasses that of the Law of Gold. Think it over carefully, and let me know your decision when you've made up your mind!"
King Jianhuang truly did not want Yang Wu, such a peerless genius, to waste a lot of time trying to comprehend the Law of Gold.
Yang Wu also fell silent.
He knew very well that perhaps due to his own attributes, he would have a stronger talent in the Origin Law of Fire.
However, his talent in Law of Space was definitely no greater than that in the Law of Gold.
The reason why King Jianhuang had this misconception was that Yang Wu had not been able to conduct a simulation in the nearly one hundred years that had passed.
This is what caused his talent to 'decline'.
But such things are simply impossible to talk about.
Fortunately, there were only about twenty years left before Yang Wu's next simulation, so he didn't need to delay for too long.
"Teacher!" Yang Wu said respectfully.
"Have you thought it through?" King Jianhuang's voice was calm.
"I've made up my mind!" Yang Wu said respectfully, "I still intend to cultivate the Law of Gold. If I make a mistake in the future, I can abandon it then!"
"Give up?"
At this moment, King Jianhuang suddenly remembered that Yang Wu had only cultivated for a few hundred years and was still just a little guy.
Even if it wastes some time, it's not a big deal at all.
Moreover, being distracted by comprehending the Origin Law of Gold is not a waste of time; it only slows down the comprehension process.
"Since you've made your decision, I won't say anything more!" King Jianhuang looked at Yang Wu with utmost seriousness. "I'll see how far you... can go on this path of gold."
"Alright, that's enough for today!"
"Respectfully seeing off our teacher!" Yang Wu said respectfully.
As a powerful expert at the Limit King Level realm, King Jianhuang could not possibly stay in Yang Wu Manor indefinitely like other instructors.
Generally speaking, King Jianhuang would only come here to give Yang Wu guidance once a month.
Of course, if Yang Wu has any questions, he can also go to the palace of King Jianhuang to seek advice.
"Master, there's mail!" Not long after King Jianhuang left, Chi Yan's voice rang in Yang Wu's mind.
In the study.
Yang Wu sat at his desk and casually opened the newly received email.
"I never imagined that it would take nearly a century for me to receive my first mission at the Domain Lord Level!" Yang Wu said with a smile.
When members of the Primal Secret Region Domain Lord Level are sent out, they usually serve as Supervisory Special Envoy for the Ganwu Branch in various Cosmic Nation.
Upon completion of your assigned monitoring duties, you will receive a reward of 100,000 points.
However, most of the Domain Lord Level members of the Primal Secret Region will stay at this level for tens of thousands of years, so it is impossible for them to only obtain 100,000 points.
Therefore, during the period when Domain Lord Level members are assigned to external posts, the company will also arrange some special tasks from time to time. As long as they are completed, they can get corresponding points rewards.
Of course, these random special missions are completely different from the selectable cultivation missions at the Universe Level; they require waiting for assignment from the company's higher-ups.
The email Yang Wu received contained information about his mission.
Yang Wu carefully watched the messages on the screen.
Cause of the matter: After a detailed investigation by my Virtual Universe Company, it has been confirmed that the two Immortal God, Yaohai, the ancestor of the Yaohai Family of the Mengyou Empire You Empire within the Ganwu Universe Country Kingdom, and his disciple Jeffries, have been Soul Invasion and controlled by the Immortal souls of the Zerg Race. Now, these two have become the Zerg Race's henchmen.
The entire Yaohai Family has been exploited by the Zerg Race. For over three million years, they have inflicted enormous losses on the Human Race on the Outer-Region Battlefield through continuous infiltration.
Mission Overview: Eliminate all suspected individuals within the Yaohai Family, as well as 120 million Core Member of the eighteen organizations secretly controlled by the Yaohai, and the Immortal God 'Yaohai' and 'Jeffries'!
Target strength details:
1. Yaohai and Jeffries were both ordinary Immortal God within the Ganwu Universe Country, but their strength greatly increased after receiving support from the Zerg Race. Yaohai now possesses the strength of a 'Marquis-level Immortal God,' Jeffries also possesses the strength of Immortal Military Lord.
2. There are 120 million ordinary members, 39 World Lord, 812 Domain Lord, 91,256 Universe Level members, and the rest are of varying Star Level and Planetary Level.
Task details:
1. Defeating Yaohai (Marquis-level Immortal God) increases the quest completion rate by 20%, while failing the quest will deduct 20% of the completion rate.
2. Defeating Jeffries (High-level Immortal Military Lord) increases quest completion by 10%; failing the quest will deduct 10% of completion.
3. Killing all 120 million Core Member increases mission completion by 15%. If even one member escapes, the mission is considered a failure. There is no penalty for mission failure.
4. Personally killing the target, Pu'er (World Lord Level Seven), increases the mission completion rate by 10%. There is no penalty for mission failure.

3. Virtual Universe Company Intelligence System
Task deadline: One year (Tasks not completed by the deadline will be considered as failures).
Task reward: The final reward points are calculated by multiplying the total completion rate by 500,000.
Task recipient: Yang Wu.
"It's finally here!" Yang Wu sat at his desk, looking at the screen in front of him.
The mission itself wasn't particularly special, but the Golden Horned Tribe involved were someone Yang Wu should take seriously.
The Golden Horn Race is a type of Rock Lifeform in the universe, and their appearance is similar to that of the Bola Race among Human Race.
The Golden Horned Tribe is an ordinary race in the universe, and a vassal of the Human Race. They live in a Cosmic Secret Realm within the territory of the Ganwu Universe Country.
There are many such vassal groups among Human Race, and in tribal wars, these vassal groups are sharp weapons.
For Yang Wu, this Sacred Stele within the Golden Horn Race was one of his fortunate opportunities.
It was precisely because Yang Wu had comprehended the Sacred Stele of the Golden Horned Tribe twice during the simulation that his Origin Law of Gold was greatly enhanced.
Moreover, Luo Feng also has a fortuitous opportunity within the Golden Horn Race. Since Yang Wu has taken on this mission, Luo Feng might miss it, so Yang Wu naturally needs to make some arrangements in advance.
On the day he received the mission, Yang Wu, along with his teacher Jinguang Marquis and his Guard Army, boarded a spaceship and left Earth for Hongchen Star within the Mengyou Empire.
The spaceship sped through the Dark Universe, while Yang Wu separated a wisp of his consciousness to connect to the Virtual Universe.
Virtual Universe, Amethyst Island.
This dazzling island, entirely composed of amethyst, is dotted with a series of undulating palaces.
"Your Highness."
"Special envoy."
As Yang Wu walked through the magnificent palace, all the Domain Lord, World Lord, and even Immortal God he encountered along the way bowed respectfully to him.
Soon, Yang Wu arrived at a large hall.
"Your Highness Yang Wu."
At the entrance of the hall, Minister of the Commerce Department, Marquis Zidian, said with great enthusiasm, "The Ninth Army Lord is already waiting in the reception hall."
"Hmm." Yang Wu nodded, then followed Marquis Zidian into the hall.
In the spacious hall stood a round table made entirely of black stone, around which stood tall thrones.
At that moment, three people were sitting on the tall throne. When they saw Yang Wu walk in, the three of them quickly got up to greet him.
Yang Wu looked up and saw that the three people were Marquis Jinyu, Marquis Heiyan, and a tall, thin man who was completely covered in Azure Battle Armor.
He was about eight meters tall, with steel-colored skin, cold eyes, and purple lips.
He was like a bolt of lightning, radiating an aura that sent chills down one's spine.
Behind these three stood a full hundred Immortal God.
"Your Highness Yang Wu!" Marquis Jinyu and the other two greeted Yang Wu warmly.
"Marquis Jinyu, Marquis Heiyan, Ninth Army Lord, it's been a long time!" Yang Wu greeted them with a smile.
Although the Ninth Army Lord also holds the title of "Army Commander," it is a position, not a measure of strength. He is able to command a hundred Immortal within the Ninth Army Group, and his strength has already reached the Marquis Level.
Therefore, the Ninth Army Lord also appeared at Yang Wu's welcoming banquet.
"Your Highness has been diligently cultivating, and we greatly admire such perseverance," said Marquis Heiyan with a smile.
"I'll have to trouble you all with this mission!" Yang Wu said with a smile.
"It is an honor for my Ninth Army Corps to serve His Highness Yang Wu!"
The Ninth Army Lord solemnly declared, "As ordered by the Virtual Universe Company, the million soldiers of my Ninth Army Group are at Your Highness's command, and none dare disobey."
"Our Ganwu Branch's intelligence department will also do its utmost to assist His Highness Yang Wu!" the three men, Marquis Heiyan, quickly added.
"Thank you all!" Yang Wu said with a smile.
"Your Highness," the Black Veil Girl Marquis Heiyan, stepped forward and said, "Let me introduce you to the Ninth Army Corps!"
Marquis Heiyan is the Minister of the Military Department, which is one of her duties.
"Thank you for your Marquis Heiyan!" Yang Wu nodded with a smile.
"The Ninth Army Corps, also known as the Ninth Army Group, consists of one hundred corps."
Marquis Heiyan said, "Each army has one Immortal God, one hundred World Lord, one thousand Domain Lord, ten thousand Universe Level, and more than a million universe warriors."
Yang Wu nodded slowly.
An army, excluding the Immortal God, is more than ten times the size of the Yang Wu Guard Army.
However, if they were to actually fight each other, Yang Wu's Guard Army would be the victors.
After all, every member of the Yang Wu Guard Army had already reached the peak of their current realm, and the ten World Lords had all reached the recognition of the Origin Law.
Marquis Heiyan continued, "The Ninth Army Lord is a member of my Virtual Universe Company. As for the hundred Immortal under his command, some come from the Ganwu Universe Country, and some come from my Virtual Universe Company."
"Your Highness, I wonder what our Ninth Army Group can do for you in this mission?" the Ninth Army Lord asked Yang Wu.
He had only received the order from the Virtual Universe Company to "be at Yang Wu's disposal," but he didn't know anything about the specific mission.
"It's like this..."
Soon, Yang Wu relayed all the mission information to the Ninth Army Lord and, with his help, formulated a detailed plan.
While Yang Wu was still traveling in the Dark Universe, the Golden Horned Tribe's 'Tawen Tribe' action team had already arrived at Hongchen Star.
At this moment, in the luxurious hall of a Virtual Universe Company's outpost on Hongchen Star, nine powerful individuals were seated separately.
These people all had bluish skin and a golden mark between their eyebrows. On the plates in front of them were various metal alloys.
"Click-clack-click-clack."
One of the nine powerful figures, a young man dressed in golden armor, was currently eating a round piece of metal with gusto, praising it as he ate. "It tastes really good. The alloy created by this Virtual Universe Company tastes amazing. I wonder if they'll sell the formula?"
The leader of the nine was an old man also shrouded in golden armor. At this moment, his slightly cloudy eyes were looking at a screen in front of him, which displayed some information about Yang Wu.
Suddenly, the old man's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Our contact this time is actually... His Highness Yang Wu?"
"What?"
Everyone else stopped what they were doing and stared at the old man in shock.
The young man in golden armor hurriedly asked, "Teacher, are you referring to that peerless human genius who appears only once every tens of millions of epochs?"
"It should be His Highness Yang Wu!" the old man said slowly. "I saw His Highness Yang Wu's detailed information with the Elder, and it's almost identical to the information on this screen!"
"Teacher, I heard that Yang Wu passed the Twelfth level of the Heavenly Bridge at the Universe Level. Is that true?" the armored youth asked hurriedly.
"Kashina, from now on you shall address him as His Highness Yang Wu!"
The old man's voice suddenly turned stern. "We brought you here at the leader's request, but you're only at the level of World Lord, so listen and watch obediently, and don't cause us any trouble, understand?"
"Understood!" Kashina nodded, then continued, "Teacher, you haven't answered my question yet!"
"As far as I know," the old man said slowly, "His Highness Yang Wu did indeed pass the Twelfth level of the Heavenly Bridge at the Universe Level!"
"What? It's true!" Kashina's eyes widened in disbelief.
The other seven Marquis Level Immortal were also filled with shock.
It should be noted that even the most powerful Domain Lord Level genius of their Golden Horn Race only possesses Law Comprehension comparable to the Tenth Layer of the Heavenly Bridge.
But how could someone at the Universe Level reach the Twelfth level?
They simply cannot imagine it!
"Everyone already knows by now."
The old man looked around and then solemnly said, "According to the clan's regulations, with Prince Yang Wu's talent, he will likely become one of the high-ranking members of the human race in the near future. We must not offend him!"
"If possible, we should also try our best to befriend each other!"
"This mission might be the best opportunity to befriend His Highness Yang Wu. If our Golden Horn Race wants to survive better, even if it's difficult to befriend the high-ranking humans, we should try our best to befriend their future leaders!"
"Everything, for the sake of the people!" The old man's eyes grew increasingly resolute.
Ordinary races like the Golden Horn Race face extreme hardship in the universe, and could be easily wiped out by powerful beings at any time.
In the Outer-Region Battlefield opened up by the Four Peak Races, there were originally many ordinary races living there. However, in order to open up the battlefield, the great beings of the Four Peak Races directly cleared out that area.
Of course, becoming a vassal of a top-tier clan, like the Golden Horn Race, is a good idea.
However, as a vassal group, they also need to constantly serve the Human Race in order to obtain the resources needed for the development of the entire race.
Weaker tribes, on the other hand, didn't even qualify to become vassal tribes.
Although the Prince Yang Wu mentioned in the information is currently only at the Domain Lord Level, he has already demonstrated incredibly extraordinary talent.
If the Golden Horn Race can truly befriend this future powerhouse of the Human Race, their future might be much brighter.
"Everything, for the sake of the people!"
At the same time, the other seven Immortal God Marquis had been granted titles of nobility, as well as the young man in armor, also responded solemnly.
