Time flies like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Wu has spent more than thirty years in Chaos City.

For the past thirty years, Yang Wu has been working diligently with the Yan God Race Clone residing in the Time Palace.

During this period, Yang Wu also comprehended the Nine Universes Chaos Stele seven more times. However, due to the huge reduction in his wealth, Yang Wu could only barely maintain the Time Palace at five times the time flow rate when comprehending the Nine Universes Chaos Stele.

As a result, the efficiency of comprehending the Nine Universes Chaos Stele is not as good as when the time flow rate was fifty times faster.

Even so, Yang Wu's progress during this period was quite remarkable.

Most importantly, he has completely mastered the treasures bestowed upon him by the Nine Sword Venerable and the Lord of Longxing.

Among them, the Top-tier Soul Heavy Treasure 'Burning Heaven Treasure Mirror' and the Heavy Treasure Armor 'Flame Dragon Armor' are defensive treasures, so Yang Wu has no restrictions on their use and doesn't need to spend too much effort on them.

As for the God Slayer Spear, although it was a fire-attribute Heavy Treasure newly crafted by Venerable Leiming and was very suitable for Yang Wu, there were still some minor incompatibilities between it and Yang Wu's self-created ultimate skill, God Slayer.

Actually, this is quite normal.

Even if powerful individuals from ordinary races in the universe are fortunate enough to obtain a Heavy Treasure, it may not be suitable for them to use, and they have no good way to exchange it for a more suitable Heavy Treasure.

Therefore, in order to better unleash the power of these Heavy Treasure, it was common for these people to abandon their original, Self-Created Secret Technique.

However, it is different for elite races like Human Race. Within the Human Race, there are countless treasures available for exchange. Even if you obtain a treasure that is not suitable for your use, you can exchange it for a more suitable and powerful Heavy Treasure.

Of course, even if the exchange is successful, it won't be a perfect match immediately. It will take some time to adapt and slightly modify the Self-Created Secret Technique. But this is still much better than creating a completely new secret technique from scratch.

This is one of the advantages of being part of a top-tier power.

Virtual Universe, Yuxiang Mountain.

The Primal Region, the Battle Arena.

The Primal Region covers a vast area and has many arenas built, which usually become a place for Primal Secret Region Member to spar, fight, and even wager.

At this moment, several figures were gathered at the edge of one of the arenas. On the arena were two World Lords. One was a young man wearing dark gold armor, and the other was a burly man who was over three meters tall with bronze skin.

These two were Yang Wu and Moxun, a master-level member of the Primordial Secret Realm.

Since the end of the World Lord Level Qualification Battle, Moxun would occasionally come to spar with Yang Wu.

Moxun was very strong. Back in the World Lord Level Qualification Battle, if it weren't for his momentary carelessness, Yang Wu wouldn't have won so easily.

Fighting against a genius World Lord like Moxun would also be quite beneficial for Yang Wu himself, so Yang Wu did not directly refuse the other party, but instead would fight Moxun from time to time.

At the beginning, the duel between the two caused quite a stir among the members of the Primal Secret Realm Master level. Many people thought that Moksun was dissatisfied with his defeat to Yang Wu in the previous Realm Master level qualification battle, which is why he continued to challenge Yang Wu.

As time went by, the number of battles between Yang Wu and Moxun increased, and fewer and fewer people paid attention to them.

From the very beginning of their battle, nearly a hundred Primal Secret Region Member came to watch. Now, only a few World Lord Level members who followed the same path as Yang Wu and Moxun have come to watch.

On the ring.

The burly Moxun looked at Yang Wu and said quite seriously, "Yang Wu, in the past hundred years (the Initial Universe, equivalent to the Primal Universe one hundred years), we have fought six times, and I have lost all of them. But this time, I will definitely win!"

In fact, Moxun was finding it increasingly difficult to understand Yang Wu.

Logically speaking, Yang Wu should have been able to defeat him in the Qualification Battle hundreds of years ago, and now that a hundred years have passed, Yang Wu should be able to crush him.

However, over the past hundred years, he has fought Yang Wu several times and found that although Yang Wu has amazing talent, his progress is far from the incredible speed he has shown before.

However, it is true that the cultivation of strong individuals becomes increasingly difficult as they progress. He had been trapped on the Eighteenth Layer the Heavenly Bridge for over ten thousand years, so why would he question the cultivation speed of a genius like Yang Wu?

Moreover, Yang Wu's slower progress actually gave him a chance to defeat Yang Wu.

Being able to defeat a genius like Yang Wu is quite a good thing for him.

"Oh?" Yang Wu couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Moxun, the gap between us was already much wider last time, I don't know where you get this confidence from?"

After breaking through to the World Lord Level, in terms of talent and comprehension alone, Yang Wu was already at the top of this era. The only ones who could surpass him in comprehension were peerless geniuses like Kedi, who appeared only once every tens of millions of epochs, and freaks like Luo Feng.

However, this era lacked geniuses like Kedi, and even the freakish Luo Feng couldn't catch up with Yang Wu anytime soon.

Therefore, although Yang Wu did not conduct another simulation during this hundred years, his rate of progress far exceeded that of Moxun and others.

In the six battles against Moxun, Yang Wu could only barely win at the beginning due to the opponent's high level of attention.

However, in the last battle, Yang Wu had already become quite adept at handling the situation.

"Moxun must know that the gap between us is widening. Could it be that he has obtained some new opportunity?" Yang Wu thought to himself.

"Haha!" The rough and unrestrained voice rang out, still carrying a slight echo. Moxun looked at Yang Wu with considerable gratitude and said with a smile, "I must thank you for your reminder, Yang Wu. It was thanks to you that I found another secret technique for cultivating Body Amplitude. Now my explosive power is not much worse than yours!"

"So that's how it is!" Yang Wu suddenly realized.

During his time Domain Lord Level, Moxun had incredibly good luck. By sheer chance, he received a Divine General Inheritance, which caused his Body Amplitude to reach an astonishing sixteen times.

As for the other original secret realm masters, although most of them also cultivated amplification-type secret techniques similar to the <Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body>, the amplification multiple was mostly less than ten times.

Therefore, the power that Moxun unleashed has always been able to overwhelm others. Coupled with his amazing Law Comprehension and his top-level Self-Created Secret Technique, Moxun has been able to maintain his advantage as the number one person in the Primal Secret Region.

However, after the last World Lord Level Qualification Battle, Moxun suddenly discovered that apart from the subtle differences between the secret techniques, Yang Wu could completely overwhelm him in terms of basic power after the explosion.

Moxun initially thought that Yang Wu had also received a Divine General Inheritance, but after getting to know him better, he learned the real reason from Yang Wu.

Normally, Yang Wu's achievements in the "Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body" are only comparable to Moxun's. The reason he surpassed Moksun in his breakthrough is because Yang Wu cultivated two more amplitude-type secret techniques.

Having learned of this reason, Moxun found an Amplitude Secret Technique cultivation, and now, a hundred years later, he has finally achieved some success.

In reality, the benefit of cultivating multiple amplitude-based secret techniques is only useful when one's strength is slightly weaker; for true powerhouses, it's like a chicken rib—useless.

Take Yang Wu himself as an example...

He has now cultivated the <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body> to the Fourth Layer, which allows him to unleash Body Amplitude of 16 times.

If we add the double amplitude of both <Beast God Transformation> and <Star Prison True Body>, Yang Wu can barely unleash the power of 25 times the amplitude.

However, if Yang Wu were to upgrade the <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body> to the fifth level with a 32x amplitude, then even with the combination of <Beast God Transformation> and <Star Prison True Body>, he could only unleash an amplitude of about 35x at most.

If the <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body> is upgraded to the sixth level, then the <Beast God Transformation> and <Star Prison True Body> will no longer be able to enhance their amplification effects.

Of course, Yang Wu and Moxun's current amplitude multiples are still very low, so practicing two more Amplitude Secret Technique would still be somewhat useful.

Moxun laughed and said, "Over the years, I've paid a price to cultivate an Amplitude Secret Technique perfectly matches my original one. Now, the amplitude multiplier can reach up to 24 times!"

"No wonder you've become so confident this time!" Yang Wu said with a smile.

Before mastering the Amplitude Secret Technique, Moxun's strongest burst was only 16 times the amplitude, which was significantly different from his 25 times. But now that the technique is newly mastered, Moxun's amplitude has immediately increased to 24 times, and the difference between them is negligible.

"Then let me see if your current strength is really as great as you say!"

After Yang Wu finished speaking, his entire aura erupted, and the Pojun Spear in his hand thrust out with lightning speed.

"Well done!" Moxun roared, his War Blade already in hand.

With the Giant Battle Blade sword in his hand, Moxun's aura became even more ferocious.

The second move of the secret technique <Ten Thousand Heavy Mountains> - Thousand Heavy Mountains.

Without testing or hesitation, Moxun unleashed his strongest killing move.

He knew that Yang Wu's marksmanship was extremely formidable, and if he hesitated even for a moment, Yang Wu would gain the upper hand.

"He has indeed become much stronger!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

After his power surged, Moxun's move was indeed much more powerful than it was during the Qualification Battle.

At the same instant!

"Laugh!"

The Pojun Spear pierced the sky, carrying an incomparably sharp aura as it rushed towards Moxun. At that moment, the entire arena space became distorted.

The first move of the God Slayer Spear Technique - Pojun.

"Break!" Moxun roared, his face contorted with rage, as he viciously slashed his Giant Battle Blade at the Pojun Spear thrusting at him.

He had fought Yang Wu several times, and each time he had fallen to this move. But this time, he would never lose!

"Clang!"

The Giant Battle Blade and the Pojun Spear in Yang Wu's hand collided violently. Moxun was forced to retreat several hundred meters, and his grip on the War Blade loosened slightly.

But at this moment, a smile appeared on Moxun's face, because...

Yang Wu retreated a similar distance to him.

In previous battles, Yang Wu had always had the upper hand due to his greater explosive power, but this time, Moxun had already seen the hope of victory.

"Haha, again!" Moxun stuck out his tongue and licked his thick lips, then roared and charged at Yang Wu again with great excitement.

"Not good!" After the two exchanged blows, Yang Wu's expression changed slightly, and he secretly realized that something was wrong.

In fact, Yang Wu's Law Comprehension was not much different from Moxun's. In reality, Yang Wu could have defeated Moxun with his Life Gene Level, which was far superior to Moxun's. However, in this Virtual Universe, their strengths were not much different.

Although Yang Wu's Self-Created Secret Technique was incredibly close to the Peak Level, it was ultimately only at the top level.

Moxun was also an unparalleled genius, and his Self-Created Secret Technique were among the best in the world.

Furthermore, since Moxun had already created a second style of swordsmanship, in terms of the sophistication of their secret techniques alone, Yang Wu and Moxun were roughly equal.

Yang Wu's ability to repeatedly defeat his opponents was entirely due to his initial surprise attack and the advantage of his Body Amplitude Secret Technique.

However, after Moxun made up for his disadvantages, Yang Wu felt immense pressure.

"This is a bit troublesome! But..."

"That makes it much more interesting!"

For Yang Wu, winning or losing wasn't the most important thing. The reason he was willing to spar with Moxun was to improve himself in the battle.

Such a closely contested battle was clearly what Yang Wu was most looking forward to.

"Kill!" Yang Wu roared, charging forward once again with his Pojun Spear in hand.

Just three minutes later, Yang Wu's face turned pale, and the World Energy was greatly depleted.

Of course, the opposing team's Moxun wasn't in much better form either.

"This time, I must win!" Moxun's eyes were bloodshot as he charged forward again, knife in hand.

"If you want to win, you have to ask me first!"

Yang Wu hadn't experienced such a difficult battle in a long time, but he was equally unwilling to admit defeat.

Yang Wu then prepared to go forward again.

"Um?"

Yang Wu felt Moxun's familiar swordsmanship slashing towards him, but he also sensed something was slightly different.

"Is that so!"

"So that's how it is!"

At that moment, Yang Wu suddenly realized something.

"Pojun!"

Yang Wu once again unleashed the God Slayer Spear Technique to meet the attack, but the power of the spear technique was much stronger than before.

Because, a new Peak Secret Technique has been born!

Shortly after the Qualification Battle ended, Yang Wu, under the guidance of the Lord of Longxing, used his self-created ultimate technique, "God Slayer," to defeat the 999th opponent assigned to him by the Lord of Longxing.

However, in the nearly one hundred years since then, Yang Wu has still not been able to defeat his thousandth opponent, who represents the pinnacle of Peak Secret Technique.

But in this incredibly difficult battle, guided by Moxun's swordsmanship, Yang Wu finally grasped that fleeting inspiration, allowing his Self-Created Secret Technique, God Slayer, to successfully reach its Peak Level.

Although it was just one more opponent defeated than before, a fundamental change actually occurred.

What is Peak Secret Technique?

Secret techniques are essentially methods that utilize and enhance one's understanding of Origin Law to achieve stronger effects; as for Peak Secret Technique, they are the best of the best.

The difference in Yang Wu's strength between defeating his 998th opponent and defeating his 999th opponent wasn't significant; both were merely incredibly close to the Peak Level.

But now, things are completely different!

The thousandth opponent represents another level.

Rumble...

Wherever the Pojun Spear passed, space twisted and shattered...

"What?" Moxun's eyes widened in surprise.

The two were evenly matched before, so why is this spear technique so much more powerful now?

"Die!" Moxun roared inwardly, his voice filled with shock.

Call out!

The Pojun Spear is as fast as lightning.

Moxun swung his Giant Battle Blade horizontally, but felt as if he had been hit by a mountain. With a loud thud, he lost consciousness.

Bang!

Yang Wu landed beside Moxun's body, feeling deeply moved.

"I never imagined that I would actually break through during my battle with Moxun!"

At this moment, the several Primordial Realm Masters surrounding the arena were also silent, watching the two peerless geniuses in the arena.

One person stood, the other fell.

"How is that possible? Just now, their strengths were clearly about the same!" a genius exclaimed in utter shock.

Originally, he thought that Moxun had a chance to defeat Yang Wu this time, but unexpectedly, he was killed by Yang Wu in the blink of an eye.

"What else could it be?" another genius said with immense envy. "This must be a breakthrough in the heat of battle. Haven't you experienced this before?"

Breakthroughs in the face of battle were commonplace for these geniuses of the Primal Secret Region in the past, after all, these people were unparalleled geniuses who were extremely rare in the universe.

However, as one's strength grows, breaking through in the heat of battle becomes impossible!

But now, they witnessed this scene again.

"It seems that even Moxun will never be a match for Yang Wu!" another genius exclaimed.

Yang Wu felt the space around him shift, and he found himself back below the arena.

"Yang Wu!" Moxun, who had fully recovered, came over from a short distance away. His expression was extremely complicated, but he still said, "Congratulations!"

He thought he had a chance to defeat Yang Wu this time, but unexpectedly, he became Yang Wu's stepping stone once again.

Moreover, after that, he had no hope of defeating Yang Wu.

After all, opportunities to rapidly increase one's strength by cultivating an Amplitude Secret Technique like before are still rare.

At the same time, Moxun was secretly marveling to himself, "This Yang Wu truly deserves to be called an unparalleled genius among our Human Race; his talent is indeed unmatched!"

"Haha!" Yang Wu chuckled softly, "I really have to Moxun, for your help. If it weren't for sparring with you, I probably wouldn't have broken through so quickly!"

Moxun a wry smile and said, "I've gained quite a few insights from this battle, so I won't bother you any longer, Yang Wu!"

"Yes!" Yang Wu nodded with a smile.

Moxun did not mention their next sparring session, nor did Yang Wu.

If their strengths were evenly matched, sparring would naturally lead to significant improvement. However, there is now a considerable gap between their abilities, and this gap will only widen in the future, so there is no need to continue sparring.

And so, Moxun left the ring area with a hint of disappointment.

Yang Wu, on the other hand, smiled with delight.

To be honest, although he was quite skilled in Self-Created Secret Technique, these insights into martial arts had always come from simulated experiences, which inevitably made him feel somewhat unreal.

But now, having taken this crucial step in reality, he is naturally overjoyed.

"Hmm, I've successfully reached the Peak Level of my Self-Created Secret Technique. It's time to go see my teacher!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

With a flash, Yang Wu disappeared from the arena area.

At the highest point of Thunder Island in the Virtual Universe, amidst endless Chaos currents, stand several magnificent temples.

One of the palaces, which looked like a dragon, was completely empty, without any servants.

Wow!

Yang Wu's figure suddenly appeared in the main hall.

"Teacher!" Yang Wu bowed respectfully to the depths of Chaos.

A burly figure slowly emerged from the Chaos energy deep within the temple. He wore a crimson robe, had a long dragon tail behind him, and exuded an aura of domineering power and violence.

"Master, your disciple has created the first Peak Ultimate Technique!" Yang Wu said with utmost respect.

"Oh?"

With a thought, the Lord of Longxing conjured a screen in mid-air, showing the scene of Yang Wu's battle with Moxun.

Seeing Yang Wu unleash his Peak Ultimate Technique to kill Moxun, the Lord of Longxing said, "Being able to create a true Peak Ultimate Technique, even if it's just one move, is quite impressive!"

"Even if you master the Ultimate Technique created by someone else, its power will probably be slightly weaker than a self-created Peak Ultimate Technique!"

Yang Wu was also filled with mixed emotions.

Human Race has many powerful individuals, and possesses quite a few Ultimate Technique.

But those Ultimate Technique techniques require endless effort just to learn, and to truly master them is even more difficult.

Moreover, even if one could learn it, its power would not be comparable to a self-created Peak Ultimate Technique.

Yang Wu, but was interrupted by the Lord of Longxing.

"However..." the Lord of Longxing said calmly, "It's too slow!"

"Slow?" Yang Wu was puzzled for a moment.

"Even without my guidance, you were able to create a top-tier martial art that was incredibly close to the Peak Ultimate Technique within a few hundred years."

"Although the thousandth opponent is a threshold, you've been stuck here for hundreds of years!" the Lord of Longxing said slowly, well aware of Yang Wu's use of the Time Palace for cultivation.

"While this speed is not bad, it still falls short compared to those peerless geniuses who emerge only once every tens of millions of epochs, let alone creating Ultimate Technique to break the shackles of the Star Bead and achieve Immortal!"

"Yang Wu, you must understand!" the Lord of Longxing said earnestly, "If you want to break free from the shackles of the Star Bead, you must work tirelessly without any slackening. Otherwise, when your lifespan reaches its limit, you will have no choice but to Possession. At that time, the Clone you currently possess and the advantages of the Black Warrior will completely disappear!"

Yang Wu suddenly realized what the Lord of Longxing meant.

In fact, Yang Wu's cultivation speed over the past hundred years has been quite astonishing, but in the eyes of the Lord of Longxing, it is far less impressive than before.

Therefore, the Lord of Longxing felt that Yang Wu had become somewhat lax, which is why he spoke up to warn him.

"Your disciple will remember!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.

"Hmm!" The Lord of Longxing nodded and continued, "It will inevitably take a long time for your first secret technique to reach its ultimate level. Now that your Law Comprehension is sufficient, you can begin creating your second secret technique!"

"Yes, teacher!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.

"Your strength is now sufficient; it's time for you to go out and make your way in the world!" said the Lord of Longxing. "Go out and explore, fight countless powerful opponents, and hone your skills through life-or-death battles. Your techniques will become more refined, and your progress will accelerate!"

"Just remember, never reveal your identity!"

"Yes!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.

"Go!" The Lord of Longxing turned and walked into the depths of the Chaos energy.

Yang Wu bowed respectfully, and then his consciousness returned directly to reality.

After his consciousness returned to reality, Yang Wu suddenly discovered that the number of simulations on the Time Simulator in his mind had been refreshed.
