Leaving Chaos City
Ten days later.
In a virtual world constructed by the Intelligent Life Chi Yan, this virtual world is simulated as a vast starry sky.
In this vast starry sky, two figures faced each other from afar. One was a black-haired youth wearing dark gold armor, while the other was an old man wearing gold armor, with blue skin and a golden mark between his eyebrows.
These two were Yang Wu and Chi Yan Fanqi, the Tawen Tribe the Golden Horn Race, simulated by Sifanqi.
Yang Wu wore a pair of dark gold combat boots, covered with various intricate and complex runes, exuding a chilling aura; they were clearly precious treasures meticulously crafted.
Yang Wu originally used the 'Sky-Stepping Boots', which he obtained from Universe Level cultivation mission secret realm. These boots were a flight equipment specializing in Law of Space, worth over a million points, comparable to the equipment used by Marquis-level Immortal god.
However, for Yang Wu now, the Sky-Stepping Boots he used to wear are no longer able to keep up with his progress, so they have to be discarded.
When Yang Wu purchased equipment last time, he spent 120 million points to have the weapon refiners within the Virtual Universe Company craft these combat boots for him.
Because Yang Wu is nostalgic and because of his self-created Movement Art, "Nine Steps of Sky-Stepping," Yang Wu named the newly crafted combat boots "Sky-Stepping Boots."
The newly crafted 'Sky-Stepping Boots' are incredibly valuable, and because they perfectly complement Yang Wu's self-created Movement Art, the 'Nine Steps of Sky-Stepping', they provide an astonishing boost to Yang Wu's Movement Technique speed.
Suddenly, Sifanqi, who was not far away, flipped his hand, and a large, jet-black hammer immediately appeared in his hand.
Boom!
Sifanqi suddenly waved his hand, and the black hammer, flashing with dazzling golden light, smashed wildly towards Yang Wu.
"Good timing!"
Yang Wu roared, then stepped into the void, instantly unleashing an astonishing speed, as fast as lightning. He streaked across the silent void with a dark Golden Flowing Light, his figure constantly shifting, like a ghost.
The black hammer was incredibly fast in the hands of a Peak King Level expert like Sifanqi, but it could never catch up with the ghostly figure of Yang Wu.
Suddenly--
Yang Wu, who was constantly dodging, suddenly stopped and thrust out with his spear.
Rumble...
The point where the Pojun Spear and the black hammer collided was like the birth of a dazzling sun; the terrifying heat generated by the impact alone distorted the surrounding space.
The immense shockwave generated by the collision of the two forces swept outwards in all directions; this force alone was enough to annihilate ordinary Immortal God.
After the attack, Sifanqi was blasted back more than ten kilometers, while Yang Wu was completely unharmed.
"Again!"
Call out!
Yang Wu shifted his position and charged towards Sifanqi once more.
The blinding Crimson Spear Light flashed continuously, and within the spear light, there was a faint phantom of a Beast God roaring to the sky, emanating an aura of domineering savagery.
The tip of the Pojun Spear was like a crimson lightning bolt, constantly stabbing towards Sifanqi, who had not yet reacted or had time to defend himself.
Puff!
The power of the Pojun Spear was heaven-defying; wherever it passed, space distorted, and even a shockwave was generated that could be seen with the naked eye. Finally, it pierced hard into Sifanqi's battle armor.
Bang!!
Yang Wu's all-out attack was incredibly powerful. Sifanqi was like a shooting star, sent flying far away by the enormous impact.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Wu caught up again and thrust out with his spear once more.
And so, Sifanqi continued to be ravaged by Yang Wu.
A moment later, the battle ended. Yang Wu stopped his attack, and although Sifanqi was in a rather disheveled state, he was unharmed.
With a wave of his hand, Yang Wu caused Sifanqi to vanish instantly, leaving Yang Wu alone standing in the vast starry sky.
At this moment, Yang Wu pondered, "Although I have barely reached the combat strength of the Limit King Level, in a real battle, I am not much stronger than the Peak King Level."
For the past ten days, Yang Wu has been fighting against some powerful Immortal God in the Virtual Space created by Chi Yan.
Of course, the Virtual Space created by Chi Yan is not as comprehensive as the Virtual Universe, and the opponents are quite limited, all of whom are powerful figures that Yang Wu is quite familiar with.
However, Yang Wu's strength has suddenly increased dramatically this time. If he were to immediately display his strength in the Virtual Universe, it would certainly arouse suspicion from many people.
Only Intelligent Life like Chi Yan, which can never betray you, can truly put Yang Wu at ease.
Therefore, Yang Wu could only have Chi Yan simulate some powerful figures he was familiar with to fight.
Through these continuous battles, Yang Wu also became increasingly familiar with his own strength.
"I'm now a typical example of someone with high offense but low defense, which is completely opposite to when Luo Feng first entered the Outer-Region Battlefield." Yang Wu frowned slightly.
In Strongest Battle, the most important thing is actually defense.
With Yang Wu's current combat strength, which has barely reached the Limit King Level, he is fully capable of killing Elementary King Level Immortal God in battle.
However, he was unable to withstand the self-destruction of Immortal God at the Elementary King Level.
Yang Wu's current defensive methods mainly come from three aspects: firstly, using Peak Secret Technique to attack instead of defending; secondly, the absolute defense of the Flame Dragon Armor; and finally, the defense of the Auxiliary Metal Lifeform Kashi.
The self-destruction of Elementary King Level Immortal God is probably stronger than the normal attack of an ordinary Limit King Level expert. It can kill Peak Marquis Level expert and severely injure Elementary King Level Immortal God.
Of course, there are differences between the two.
Faced with the ordinary attacks of Limit King Level expert, Yang Wu could easily block them using his Peak Secret Technique. However, when faced with the self-destruction of Elementary King Level Immortal God, he could only rely on the Flame Dragon Armor and the Elementary King Level Auxiliary Metal Lifeform Kashi to withstand it.
The Flame Dragon Armor can reduce the power of a self-destruction to one-tenth of its original value, drastically reducing it to the level equivalent to the self-destruction of Peak Marquis Level.
The Auxiliary Metal Lifeform Kashi excels at possession techniques, but it is not as adept at self-protection as Auxiliary Plant Life such as Mo Yun Vine. Its defensive capabilities are roughly equivalent to those of an ordinary Elementary King Level Immortal God.
While the self-destruction of Peak Marquis Level expert could not seriously injure Elementary King Level Immortal God, it was quite easy to shatter their Divine Body.
Once Kashi's Divine Body is shattered, Yang Wu's World Lord Level Divine Body will have to face the impact directly. Even if its power is almost gone, Yang Wu's Earthling Main Body will still be at risk of perishing.
"Although I can kill a beginner-level Immortal Elementary King Level, if I force him to self-destruct, I will lose more than I gain!" Yang Wu thought to himself.
"Furthermore, while I can ravage and shatter the Divine Body of High King Level Immortal God, I cannot harm their essence! As for Peak King Level Immortal, each of them possesses astonishing abilities. I cannot even suppress those who are skilled in Teleportation and Time Stasis!"
Yang Wu knew very well that the reason he was able to crush Elder Sifanqi of the Golden Horned Tribe in the battle just now was entirely because the Battle Space had been sealed off, preventing the opponent from using Teleportation.
However, in a real-world battle, Yang Wu would be unable to use Space Lockdown on his own, and would be completely helpless against a powerful opponent who could Teleportation.
"With all my methods at my disposal, killing Peak Marquis Level is no danger at all. Even if the opponent self-destructs, it won't be able to harm me!"
"Once the Life Gene Level of my Yan God Race Clone is upgraded, my defense will increase significantly. At that time, I will be able to go and kill Immortal God at the Elementary King Level!"
After ten days of fighting, Yang Wu finally determined his main target in the Outer-Region Battlefield —an Marquis-level Immortal.
Fighting against King-Level Immortal is quite dangerous, while Army Lord Level Immortal has very little wealth and cannot accumulate enough resources to operate the Time Palace.
Only those at the Marquis-level Immortal can be easily killed, and their wealth is also astonishing.
"It's time to leave!" Yang Wu sighed softly, and then his consciousness left the Virtual Space.
On the rooftop of a quiet Cultivation Residence in Chaos City, Yang Wu slowly rose.
Whoosh!
Yang Wu leaped down and landed in front of his Cultivation Residence. At the same time, Yang Wu gently placed his hand on the door.
The color of the gate to the Cultivation Residence slowly changed, returning to a pale white that signified that it was no longer inhabited.
"With the existence of the Time Simulator and the Time Palace, I haven't spent too much time living in this Chaos City," Yang Wu sighed softly.
Without the help of these two treasures, even at his current cultivation speed, it would probably take him hundreds of thousands of years to achieve this level of accomplishment within Chaos City.
But now, he has only lived in Chaos City for a few decades.
Yang Wu shook his head slightly to dispel the various thoughts in his mind, and then turned and hurried to his senior brother Natie's Cultivation Residence.
At this moment, Natie has successfully crossed the threshold of the Law of Fire and is now calmly comprehending the Law of Fire, hoping to pass through the first level of the Heavenly Bridge as soon as possible.
Even though Natie wasn't Core Member of the Virtual Universe Company, she had heard some rumors about Yang Wu while staying in Chaos City.
Therefore, he was not surprised by Yang Wu's departure.
After receiving Natie's blessings, Yang Wu left Natie's Cultivation Residence.
Upon arriving on the streets of Chaos City, Yang Wu once again headed to the Cultivation Residence of his mentor King Jianhuang.
King Jianhuang guided Yang Wu for a long time, especially in the area of Law of Gold, which greatly helped Yang Wu.
Now that we were about to leave Chaos City, it was natural to go and say goodbye.
In fact, Yang Wu had also fought against King Jianhuang in the virtual world created by Chi Yan, but he was killed by King Jianhuang.
After all, King Jianhuang was able to create his own Peak Secret Technique, and his strength was far beyond that of ordinary Limit King Level experts.
Although Yang Wu could barely hold his own against his opponent, he would be killed instantly if he was careless and failed to block the opponent's attack.
"Your Highness Yang Wu!"
"Your Highness!"
Walking through the King Jianhuang's mansion, the occasional King Jianhuang's disciples would greet Yang Wu warmly.
King Jianhuang was merely Yang Wu's mentor; these people couldn't possibly call Yang Wu their junior brother.
Moreover, the news that Yang Wu had won first place in the World Lord Level Qualification Battle had already spread, so these people naturally treated Yang Wu with great enthusiasm.
Soon, Yang Wu arrived at a beautifully decorated courtyard.
In the courtyard, King Jianhuang was drinking with a Golden-Armored Ape-Man.
"Come in!" King Jianhuang said with a smile upon seeing Yang Wu appear.
"Teacher, King Zhenyan!" Yang Wu entered the courtyard and bowed respectfully.
"Are you leaving?" King Jianhuang looked at Yang Wu, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He is a powerful expert at the Limit King Level, holding an extremely high position within the Virtual Universe Company. Even some peerless geniuses who want to become his disciples might not be considered worthy of his attention.
While Yang Wu was indeed exceptionally talented, Yang Wu would not have bothered to serve as a mere mentor.
However, since the Nine Sword Venerable personally invited him, and one of his favorite disciples, Qian Shui, was Yang Wu's wife, he reluctantly agreed.
Later, Yang Wu's progress in comprehending the Law of Gold was slow, and he even advised Yang Wu to give up.
Up until now, Yang Wu's progress has become increasingly astonishing, even to the point that it is unbelievable to him.
Furthermore, Yang Wu is extremely respectful of his teachers, so even though he is merely Yang Wu's mentor, King Jianhuang now feels quite honored.
"Yes, teacher!" Yang Wu said with a smile, "My progress in Law Comprehension has become quite slow. It's time for me to go out and see the outside world!"
King Jianhuang looked intently at Yang Wu and exclaimed in amazement, "Yang Wu, I have never seen, or even heard of, such a genius as you. Without a doubt, your future achievements will be astonishing. But..."
King Jianhuang changed the subject, continuing, "The path to becoming a strong person is extremely perilous; the slightest carelessness can lead to death. You must be extremely cautious!"
"Indeed!" said the King Zhenyan beside him. "The path to becoming a strongman requires utmost caution."
"Millions of years ago, Kedi, a peerless genius of my time, hailed as a once-in-tens of millions of years for our Human Race, perished at the hands of Alien Race before he could achieve Immortal!"
"Yang Wu, your talent is now even more astonishing than that of Kedi, and the methods of the Alien Race will likely be even more astonishing. You must be prepared!"
"Thank you for your advice, King Zhenyan!" Yang Wu said respectfully.
"Hahaha... I was just making a casual remark!" King Zhenyan said with a laugh, "Come, let's have a drink and wish Yang Wu a speedy breakthrough to Immortal!"
Immediately, King Zhenyan his hand, and a wine cup appeared out of thin air in front of Yang Wu.
"May your name, Yang Wu, resound throughout the universe and among countless races," King Jianhuang said, raising his cup in return.
"Thank you, Teacher!" Yang Wu raised his glass in response.
The three of them drank the wine in their cups in one gulp, and Yang Wu then took his leave.
Spaceships frequently travel between the Initial Universe and the Virtual Universe Company's Universal Headquarters via the 'Cosmic Passage'.
Since Yang Wu had already decided to leave, he naturally investigated relevant information and submitted his departure application.
Given Yang Wu's current authority, the staff in Chaos City naturally dared not neglect him, and thus immediately arranged the fastest spaceship for Yang Wu.
Whoosh!
Clad in dark gold Flame Dragon Armor, Yang Wu soared into the sky, flying directly above Chaos City, where an extremely large spaceship was parked.
"Your Highness Yang Wu, we are all ready!" An Immortal God dressed in purple stood at the spaceship's hatch and said respectfully upon seeing Yang Wu appear.
Let's go!
Yang Wu glanced back at the Chaos City, which was surrounded by endless Chaos energy, and then flew directly into the spaceship.
Wow!
The hatch closed.
"Rumble..."
The long, shuttle-shaped spaceship quickly started up and flew into the depths of the Chaos airflow.
Original Universe, Virtual Universe Company's Universal Headquarters.
In the dreamlike starry sky, an incredibly vast continent floats, with enormous stars hovering around it as if they were mere embellishments.
Rumble...
With a loud bang, two enormous gates at the core of the mainland headquarters opened automatically, revealing a magnificent passageway.
This is the Cosmic Passage between the Initial Universe and the Primal Universe!
A long, shuttle-shaped spaceship slowly emerged from the passageway, then accelerated, and landed at a distribution center a few minutes later.
Whoosh!
The hatch opened.
"Your Highness Yang Wu, please!"
"Your Highness Yang Wu!"
At the spaceship's hatch, everyone was extremely enthusiastic, even the King Level Immortal who was in charge of the spaceship came over.
This is not surprising.
Although Yang Wu's identity as a disciple of the Dragon Lord has not been made public, the fact that he defeated the number one master of the Primordial Secret Realm after cultivating for hundreds of years has indeed spread. These people are knowledgeable and naturally know how extraordinary Yang Wu's talent is.
Call!
Yang Wu smiled and nodded, then flew directly towards the Nine Sword Venerable Manor in the core area.
On their journey to the Outer-Region Battlefield, the Yan God Race Clone will be indispensable as a powerful future fighting force.
In the manor of the Nine Sword Venerable, Yang Wu and his Yan God Race Clone reunited and left behind an incarnation in the Time Palace.
This avatar was created by Yang Wu based on a secret technique recorded in the Space-Time Essays. It has no power of its own and can only serve to transmit messages. However, it is perfectly suitable for use in the Time Palace to refine his Self-Created Secret Technique.
After dealing with the issues at the Time Palace, Yang Wu, guided by the staff, arrived at the centralized teleportation area.
Within this region, there are 36 fixed spatial tunnels that can quickly transport people to important locations within Human Territory.
"Your Highness Yang Wu!" An Immortal God with Green Coin skin walked towards Yang Wu.
Most of the staff in this area are Domain Lord and World Lord; the Immortal God can be considered leaders.
"His Highness has requested to go to Branch 9, which happens to be the area under my jurisdiction, Pupuka!" the Green Coin- skinned Immortal God said with a smile. "I received the news and came here immediately to wait!"
"Thank you so much, Pupuka!" Yang Wu said with a smile, naturally not ignoring the goodwill extended by the other party.
"Haha, it's my pleasure!" After receiving Yang Wu's thanks, Pupuka's smile widened, and he quickly led Yang Wu to a spatial passage that resembled a water curtain.
Meanwhile, Pupuka continued to explain the important information about the spatial passage to Yang Wu: "Your Highness Yang Wu, this spatial passage connects to Branch 9, which is the closest point to your destination..."
Yang Wu smiled and nodded. After thanking the other party, he took a step forward and entered the water curtain in front of him.
The so-called fixed spatial channels also use the God Kingdom as a transit station, and the master of the God Kingdom used is essentially offering his God Kingdom to the Virtual Universe Company.
Of course, in doing so, his God Kingdom was also made incredibly safe by the Virtual Universe Company, so strictly speaking, he still profited.
Through the space tunnel, Yang Wu instantly arrived at Branch 9, hundreds of millions of light-years away. Yang Wu then boarded a spaceship and headed to his first destination— the Wulong Starfield.
The Garbage Mountain in the Wulong Starfield contains a large number of fragments of Yan God Race Soldier Armor's and General Armor, which can enhance the strength of Yan God Race Clone at a very low cost. Yang Wu naturally wanted to give it a try.
On his way to the Wulong Starfield, Yang Wu connected his consciousness to the Virtual Universe and directly purchased a year's worth of Taobao services.
The spaceship traveled at fifty times the speed of light in the Dark Universe and finally arrived at the Wulong Starfield a month and a half later.
The Wulong Starfield, one of the nine Junk Starfield, is actually considered one of the treasure troves for the Human Race.
If we disregard the issue of territory, the wealth of that Junk Starfield could even surpass that of an entire Cosmic Nation.
The dark starry sky trembled, and then a red triangular spaceship appeared out of thin air.
Inside the spaceship's control room, Yang Wu looked at the vast palace complex ahead and then directed the spaceship to fly towards the core area of the palace complex.
The entire palace complex is over 100,000 kilometers long and wide, surrounded by patrols of Black Armor guards and an extremely powerful defense and surveillance system.
Yang Wu, however, traveled without any obstacles and received no messages of obstruction.
Upon arriving at the core area, Yang Wu, guided by the staff, boarded a spaceship and flew towards the palace of King Longjue, the head of the Virtual Universe Company.
At this moment, five powerful figures were already waiting in front of King Longjue's palace. The aura emanating from them had all reached the level of King Rank. They were the five leaders of the five Five Great Forces in the Wulong Starfield.
Meanwhile, Yang Wu, who had arrived above the palace, had already put away his spaceship and was flying towards King Longjue and the others.
"Your Highness Yang Wu!" King Longjue and the others hurriedly greeted Yang Wu with smiles.
Even the proud King Yanzhu had a smile on his face at this moment.
In truth, given King Yanzhu's status, he wouldn't care even if someone were Invincible King Level expert.
But Yang Wu is different. During this time, Yang Wu's reputation has spread throughout the universe. Even his father, who is High Universe Venerable, believes that he will not be Yang Wu's match in the future.
Naturally, the King Yanzhu wanted to cultivate a good relationship with such a peerless genius with unlimited potential.
"King Longjue!" Having already met him once in the Virtual Universe, Yang Wu immediately recognized King Longjue's identity.
After King Longjue the identities of the other four people, Yang Wu received a warm welcome from the five of them.
... Inside the hall.
A sumptuous feast was laid out, and Yang Wu and five others took their seats.
"Your Highness Yang Wu has cultivated for hundreds of years and yet defeated the number one genius at the Master level of the Primordial Secret Realm. Such talent is simply unheard of!" King Longjue raised his wine cup and exclaimed, "Cheers to Your Highness's talent!"
Everyone raised their glasses, and Yang Wu followed suit.
Drink it all in one gulp!
"Yang..." The incomparably handsome King Yanzhu was about to speak when Yang Wu interrupted him, "King Longjue, I came to the Wulong Starfield this time to relax in the Garbage Mountain. Let's talk business first!"
Just as the King Yanzhu was about to speak, Yang Wu interrupted him, which made him somewhat angry, but he had no choice but to hold back.
"It is indeed important business!" King Yanzhu forced a smile and said.
Seeing the King Yanzhu's attitude, the others became even more enthusiastic towards Yang Wu.
Among them, the King Yanzhu had the most powerful background, and usually, King Yanzhu King Longjue and others would give way to him.
But now, even the King Yanzhu from his previous life had to bow down before Yang Wu, so the others naturally became even more enthusiastic.
Soon, Yang Wu obtained the World Ring and authorization, enabling him to view the surveillance map of the entire Wulong Starfield at any time.
Immediately, Yang Wu rushed to the Garbage Mountain to search for treasures.
Chapter 46 of Part 15
His self-destruction at the Peak King Level was comparable to the combined attack of a million-strong army of world World Lord ( with World Lord Power).
Capable of killing High King Level and severely injuring Peak King Level.
When King Yechen (Peak King Level) self-destructed, King Huci (Limit King Level) 'Divine Body was blasted apart, but his divine power was not diminished.
Therefore, the power of a self-destruction weakened to the Peak Marquis Level could blast open the body of Elementary King Level Kashi, thus attacking Yang Wu's Earthling body. No problem...
