More Than Twenty Years Later

In the Dark Universe, the spaceship carrying Yang Wu and his companions is traveling at fifty times the speed of light.

The journey from the Imperial Capital Planet of the Mengyou Empire to the homeland of the Golden Horned Tribe, located on the edge of the Ganwu Universe Country, is quite long, spanning 120 million light-years.

Even traveling at fifty times the speed of light in the Dark Universe, a spaceship would still take nearly three months to reach its destination.

Half a month after leaving the Imperial Capital Planet, Yang Wu received a communication request from the Ninth Army Lord of the Ganwu Universe Country.

"Your Highness, the eight targets who escaped during the mission have all been eliminated by our Ninth Army Corps with the assistance of our Virtual Universe Company's intelligence department!"

In the virtual screen, the Ninth Army Lord was reporting the situation to Yang Wu, while inwardly marveling at the situation.

"Your Highness Yang Wu truly deserves to be called a peerless genius, one in tens of millions of epochs among our Human Race. Even the company's intelligence department is so cooperative!"

Prior to this, the Ninth Army Lord had also collaborated with many Core Member from the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters to complete various tasks assigned by the company.

Even when a mission was led by King-Level Immortal God, the Ninth Army Lord had never seen the intelligence department so dedicated.

All eight targets who escaped during this mission were extremely cunning, but the intelligence department still put in a lot of effort to lure them all out.

But that's quite normal.

The intelligence department is arguably the most well-informed department within the Virtual Universe Company. They possess not only information on various Alien Race but also on many high-ranking human figures.

That's precisely why the intelligence officers were so aware of the astonishing extent of Yang Wu's authority, and therefore they dared not be negligent in the slightest towards Yang Wu.

Therefore, with the full assistance of the intelligence department, the Ninth Army Group under the command of the Ninth Army Lord quickly killed the eight escapees who had fled during the mission.

With this, Yang Wu's task was finally completed.

Although the mission objective Leinuo, perished in the aftermath of the battle against the Immortal God, Yang Wu completed his other tasks quite well, ultimately achieving a mission completion rate of 85%.

Of course, Yang Wu didn't care too much about the fact that the total score for this mission was only 500,000.

"Thank you for your help during this time, Ninth Army Lord!" Yang Wu said with a smile.

"Your Highness is too kind!" the Ninth Army Lord quickly replied, "It is my honor to work with Your Highness!"

The Ninth Army Lord had always heard people talk about how amazing unparalleled geniuses were, and this time he finally witnessed it for himself.

Witnessing Yang Wu, as Domain Lord, kill Peak World Lord who had been recognized by the Origin Law, was a major topic of conversation between the Ninth Army Lord and other Immortal for a long time to come.

Time keeps passing.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Wu had arrived in the Golden Horn Race's home world, Lasao World, aboard a spaceship.

"Your Highness!" Sifanqi led the Golden Horned Tribe into the control room, pointed to a vast continent in the distant starry sky, and said with a smile, "That is the homeland of my Golden Horn Race!"

Yang Wu looked up through the simulated outdoor scenery.

In the boundless starry sky outside the spaceship, there was an incredibly vast continent. Even though the distance was great, Yang Wu still couldn't see the end of the continent.

"Countless ages ago, our ancestors led the Golden Horned Tribe to migrate here. At that time, countless World Lord within our clan used the World Energy to create countless worlds, and many Immortal God also built lands within their own God Kingdom!"

Sifanqi's voice held a hint of excitement. "Many Elder even shattered some of the surrounding stars, and then countless landmasses gathered together, which is how this homeland where my Golden Horned Tribe has survived for countless years came to be, Lasao!"

Looking at the vast Lasao World before him and listening to Sifanqi's introduction, Yang Wu was filled with emotion.

What a magnificent spirit it is for an entire people to unite as one and create such a vast world!

"Elder Sifanqi, may I ask how large this Lasao World is?" Yang Wu asked softly.

"The entire world is 300 billion kilometers thick, and the diameter of its landmass reaches 2.1 light-years!" Sifanqi said with considerable pride.

Even the other Golden Horned Tribe had expressions of pride on their faces.

Yang Wu nodded.

With a diameter of 2.1 light-years, it is much larger than the Xueluo World, which Yang Wu visited before and had a diameter of nearly one light-year.

Moreover, the Xueluo World was naturally born in the universe, and in terms of sheer strength, it is still inferior to the Lasao World.

As Yang Wu and his companions approached the Lasao World, they were traveling on Yang Wu's spaceship, which quickly received a blocking signal from the Lasao World.

Fortunately, Sifanqi, who possessed Peak King Level strength, had extremely high authority in the Lasao World, so the spaceship quickly flew into the Lasao World.

The ideal temperature for the Golden Horn Race to survive is much lower than that for humans, so most of the Lasao World is an ice and snow world, with thick snow covering the land.

If an ordinary human were to come to this place, they would probably freeze to death immediately.

However, given Yang Wu and his group's strength, they would naturally not be affected in any way.

Soon, Sifanqi led Yang Wu and the others back to their tribe.

Within the Golden Horn Race, every tribe possesses Immortal God.

Among them, the tribes where ordinary Immortal God reside are lower-class tribes, the tribes with Marquis-level Immortal are middle-class tribes, and the tribes with King Level Immortal are upper-class tribes.

As for the Universe Venerable, he has already joined the Elder Divine Palace and no longer belongs to any single tribe.

Among the countless tribes, the top ten tribes are home to Universe Venerable level Elder, and are therefore known as Elder tribes.

The Tawen Tribe is a superior tribe among the Golden Horned Tribe. Because of the Peak King Level expert, Sifanqi, the Tawen Tribe ranks among the top among many superior tribes.

That evening, the Tawen Tribe held a grand welcome banquet for Yang Wu and his companions, which was attended by all the Immortal God residing in the tribe.

The Tawen Tribe has existed for countless ages. During this long period, many human geniuses and powerful individuals have visited the Tawen Tribe, including several King Level Immortal from various Human Race.

However, the many Immortal God of the Tawen Tribe had never seen a genius like Yang Wu, who was the most extraordinary among the Human Race.

Therefore, the entire Tawen Tribe held Yang Wu in the highest esteem and respect.

I spent one night at the Tawen Tribe.

The next day, Yang Wu refused the Tawen Tribe chief's offer to stay and then, under the protection of Sifanqi, boarded a spaceship to the Holy City of the Golden Horned Tribe.

The Holy City is the core area of the entire Golden Horn Race, and the Sacred Stele left by Xirodo is located in the Core Land of the Holy City.

The spaceship traveled at near the speed of light for half a month before finally arriving at the location of the Golden Horn Race's Holy City.

This is an extremely majestic ancient city, with a diameter exceeding hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

In the very heart of this city stands an incredibly dazzling golden statue.

The golden statue was tens of thousands of kilometers tall, and Yang Wu could see it clearly even from a great distance.

After entering the city, Yang Wu flew directly to the Elder Divine Palace under the guidance of Sifanqi.

Some powerful figures residing in the Holy City became excited upon seeing Yang Wu.

"Look, it's a human!"

"Domain Lord Ninth Stage? To be invited to the Holy City with such strength, he must be an unparalleled genius among humans!"

Whoosh!

Several Domain Lord Ninth Stage figures immediately soared into the sky, blocking Yang Wu and the others' path.

"Human, you must be an unparalleled genius among humans to have arrived at the Holy Land of my Golden Horned Tribe at the Domain Lord Level."

A tall, imposing young man carrying a dark gold staff solemnly declared, "I, Kanos, challenge you!"

Many Domain Lord Level geniuses were incredibly excited at this moment.

Suddenly--

"Nonsense!"

A sound like the clash of metal resounded in everyone's minds.

Immediately, an elderly man exuding an incredibly profound aura appeared before Yang Wu and the others.

He was wearing Elder's Crown and Star Robe, which subtly revealed part of his chest.

"It's Elder!"

"The Elder have appeared!"

Countless powerful members of the Golden Horned Tribe residing in the Holy City raised their heads, looking at the old man in the Star Robe with immense excitement.

"Step back!"

With a gentle wave of his scepter, the Domain Lord Level geniuses who had been blocking Yang Wu and the others vanished.

In a secluded corner of the Holy City, the Domain Lord Level geniuses who had been blocking Yang Wu's path suddenly appeared.

"This... we haven't even challenged that human genius yet, Wei He are the Elder telling us to leave?"

These Golden Horned Tribe were at the Domain Lord Level, simply couldn't understand it at this moment.

In fact, to the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe, if Yang Wu were just an ordinary human genius, they certainly wouldn't have stopped the many Domain Lord Level geniuses of the Golden Horned Tribe from challenging Yang Wu.

After all, the Golden Horn Race is a vassal tribe of humans, so the Golden Horned Tribe are inherently inferior to humans in terms of mentality.

If a peerless genius were to emerge from the Golden Horn Race and defeat a human genius, it would make countless Golden Horned Tribe extremely proud.

This is a sense of honor!

If a genius could truly defeat a human genius, that would be an incredible achievement, even more exciting than becoming Immortal God, and would surely be celebrated by countless Golden Horned Tribe for a long time.

But just how incredible are Yang Wu's talents and strength now?

The Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe had already learned from Sifanqi that Yang Wu had displayed the ninth level of the Overlord Spear Technique, so why would they allow a genius from their clan to challenge him?

It should be noted that even the most talented Domain Lord Level genius of the Golden Horned Tribe, at this moment, only had Law Comprehension comparable to the Tenth Layer of the Heavenly Bridge. The gap between him and Yang Wu was simply too great.

"Hahaha..."

After teleporting away the many geniuses, the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe smiled at Yang Wu and said, "I had long heard in the Hong Alliance that a peerless genius had appeared among the Human Race, but I never expected that your talent would be even more astonishing than the rumors!"

Yang Wu did not become complacent because of the other party's praise, but instead bowed slightly and said, "Yang Wu, a human, greets the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe!"

Although Yang Wu possessed extraordinary talent, he still had to show due respect when facing a great being like the Universe Venerable.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I simply couldn't believe that a Domain Lord who was less than three hundred years old could unleash the ninth level of the Overlord Spear Technique!"

Looking at Yang Wu, the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe couldn't help but sigh.

As Universe Venerable, this Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe could tell Yang Wu's true age at a glance the moment he saw Yang Wu.

"What?"

Upon hearing the Elder's words, Sifanqi and the others were filled with utter shock.

Although they knew Yang Wu's talent was extraordinary, they never considered Yang Wu age.

In Sifanqi's eyes, Yang Wu must have cultivated for at least several thousand years to break through to the Domain Lord Level.

But what he didn't expect was that Yang Wu had been born less than three hundred years ago!

How short is three hundred years?

For most powerful individuals, it's just a fleeting moment!

Not only were Sifanqi and the others extremely surprised, but even this Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe was also very astonished.

Jinguang Marquis, standing to the side, sighed inwardly, for he had personally witnessed Yang Wu's growth along the way.

The scene of Yang Wu becoming a disciple is still as vivid as yesterday, yet Yang Wu has already grown from the Fifth-Level Domain Realm to his current state.

"Elder, I just had some luck!" Yang Wu said calmly.

Yang Wu is indeed incredibly lucky to possess Time Simulator.

After all, the total time Yang Wu experienced in the Simulator exceeded ten thousand years.

Over ten thousand years, his Law Comprehension is comparable to the Thirteenth Floor of the Heavenly Bridge. While such talent is impressive, it is nothing special among the countless geniuses of the Human Race.

"Young friend, you are too modest!" The Golden Horn Clan elder said with a smile as he led Yang Wu and the others into the Elder's Divine Palace. "I heard that you came to my Golden Horn Clan this time to study the sacred stele left by Elder Hirodo?"

"Yes!" Yang Wu said respectfully, "I have long heard that the sacred stele left by Elder Hirodo is of great help in comprehending the two fundamental laws of 'metal' and 'void'. I hope the elder can give me an opportunity to comprehend the sacred stele!"

"Of course!" the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe laughed loudly. "Since you wish to study the Sacred Stele, I will grant you a year of study time. You may go to the Sacred Stele to begin your study at any time."

"A year?" Yang Wu was slightly taken aback.

It's important to know that Luo Feng only had one month to comprehend the truth in the original novel.

However, given Yang Wu's astonishing talent and the recent assassination attempt by the Alien Race Venerable, it's not surprising that he was able to comprehend the Sacred Stele in a year.

"Thank you, Elder!" Yang Wu quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Ha ha..." The Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe laughed heartily, "Young friend, it's good that you've gained something from my Golden Horned Tribe!"

"There's one more thing I'd like to trouble you with Elder..." Yang Wu said, slightly embarrassed.

The Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Is there anything else, young friend?"

I'm not afraid to help.

My only fear is that you won't want to ask for help.

Especially after learning Yang Wu's true age, this Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe was planning to gather the other Elder to discuss how to make Yang Wu owe a favor.

Just when I was dozing off, a helpful pillow appeared.

Yang Wu slowly said, "Elder, my teacher, Marquis Jin Guang, follows the same path as Elder Xi Luoyuan, both cultivating the Law of Metal and the Law of Space. Therefore, I wish to request an opportunity for my teacher to comprehend the Sacred Stele!"

Upon hearing this, Jinguang Marquis, who was standing to the side, was also somewhat excited.

He had once entered the Initial Universe, but he was not Core Member of the Five Great Forces, so after leaving Chaos City, he never had the opportunity to comprehend the Chaos Stele again.

If he could truly comprehend the Golden Horned Tribe Holy Stele, which is comparable to the Chaos Stele, it would be of immense help to him.

"Oh?" The Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe looked at Jinguang Marquis and asked with a smile, "Is this Immortal your teacher, young friend?"

"Exactly!" Yang Wu quickly replied.

The Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe looked at Marquis Jinguang Marquis and Yang Wu, their smiles widening.

He recognized Jinguang Marquis's strength at a glance, but he didn't expect that Yang Wu would seek the opportunity to comprehend the Sacred Stele for such a Marquis-level Immortal.

"Such gratitude and such a heart... As long as my Golden Horn Race can wholeheartedly help him now, he will naturally look after my Golden Horn Race when he becomes powerful in the future!" The Golden Horned Tribe Elder nodded to himself.

There are many ungrateful people among the strong. Once they become powerful, they only care about themselves and completely forget the help they received when they were weak.

The Golden Horned Tribe has historically bestowed benefits upon many geniuses among Human Race, but among them, they have also encountered a few ungrateful Golden Horned Tribe.

Therefore, the Golden Horned Tribe members were naturally afraid of encountering ungrateful wretches.

Given Yang Wu's current status, the fact that he still shows such respect to a teacher who Marquis Level has reassured this Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe.

After a moment's thought, the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe smiled and said, "Since you've spoken, young friend, I'll grant this Immortal a month to study and comprehend the Sacred Stele of my Golden Horn Race!"

"Thank you, Elder!" Yang Wu quickly expressed his gratitude.

The teacher was given the opportunity to study the Sacred Stele, and Yang Wu was even happier than if he had studied the Sacred Stele himself.

Jinguang Marquis was naturally extremely excited and quickly expressed his gratitude. "Thank you, Elder!"

After meeting with the Elder of the Golden Horned Tribe, Yang Wu and the others were arranged to stay in an extremely exquisite manor near the Elder God.

This is a place specifically used by the Golden Horn Race to entertain powerful human warriors; its architectural style is quite different from other parts of the Holy City.

Inside the main hall of the manor.

"Your Highness Yang Wu!"

Sifanqi smiled and said, "The Elder Divine Palace has issued an order that Your Highness may go to study the Sacred Stele at any time. When does Your Highness intend to go?"

"No rush!" Yang Wu said with a smile, "I've made some progress along the way, so I plan to go into seclusion and cultivate for a while before heading to the Sacred Stele to study it!"

At this point, there were only about twenty years left before the timer on Yang Wu's mental Time Simulator refreshed, so Yang Wu wanted to wait until the next simulation before studying the Sacred Stele.

In this way, Yang Wu can also comprehend the Golden Horned Tribe Holy Stele over a year during the simulated experience, allowing him to make greater progress in his Law of Gold.

"Your Highness is truly diligent in your cultivation!" Sifanqi couldn't help but exclaim.

Then, Sifanqi quickly added, "Your Highness, please continue your cultivation. I will inform the Holy Stele Guardian Sacred Stele Your Highness wishes to comprehend its secrets!"

"Thank you so much, Elder Sifanqi!" Yang Wu said with a smile.

"Your Highness is too kind!" Sifanqi quickly said.

In his opinion, Yang Wu's seclusion this time would probably only last a few months at most.

But what Sifanqi didn't expect was that Yang Wu's seclusion for cultivation would last for more than twenty years.

Of course, for the eternally Immortal Sifanqi, a hundred or a thousand years is but a fleeting moment, and twenty years and a few months are no different at all.

For the next period of time, Yang Wu devoted himself to comprehending the Law of Gold.

At first, King Jianhuang, who was in charge of guiding Yang Wu, felt that something was amiss.

However, after Yang Wu revealed that he was about to comprehend the Golden Horned Tribe Holy Stele, King Jianhuang accepted Yang Wu's decision to focus on comprehending the Law of Gold.

As one of the top King Level Immortal among the human race, King Jianhuang had naturally heard of the Golden Horned Tribe Holy Stele.

That is, after all, a treasure comparable to the Chaos Stele among Human Race; a year to comprehend it requires careful preparation.

And so, time continued to pass.

In the blink of an eye, more than twenty years had passed.

Meanwhile, the Time Simulator in Yang Wu's mind once again refreshed its simulation count.
