The Choice
"Actually..."
The Mountain Sitting Guest sighed, his voice creating spatial ripples in the endless void.
"Among the many Supreme Treasure I prepared for my disciple, the other items are roughly equal in power, but the Star Tower before you is truly unique!"
"When I was forging this Supreme Treasure, the 'Star Tower,' some unexpected events occurred, which greatly increased the Star Tower's power, making it one of the strongest Supreme Treasure in the entire universe!"
"However, although the power of the Star Tower has greatly increased, the initial recognition of its master has become a thousand times, ten thousand times more difficult!"
Yang Wu sighed inwardly.
Yes, it's incredibly difficult for the Star Tower to recognize a master. Even with his current level of willpower, he probably couldn't last three thousand years.
In the simulated experience, he endured excruciating pain year after year, with no end in sight, until his demise.
"In order to make this Star Tower a master, I even specially guided and nurtured your Earth Human Lineage, but even so, the first and second candidates both failed in the process of becoming masters!"
The Mountain Sitting Guest continued, "Yang Wu, although you broke the hundredfold genetic limitation with the body of the Yan God Race Lineage, your soul is of Earth Human Lineage. In that sense, there is a possibility that you could recognize the Star Tower as your master."
"However, once the Star Tower fails to recognize its master, your will will completely collapse, and your soul will disintegrate. Even if you have Clone, you will still be doomed."
The Mountain Sitting Guest looked at Yang Wu, a hint of expectation in his eyes. "Yang Wu, my disciple, are you willing to give it a try?"
For the Mountain Sitting Guest, the Star Tower was originally God King Main Weapon he prepared for his disciples, and it would be a good thing for whoever could recognize it as their master.
Now, Yang Wu's talent is even greater, possessing strong abilities in both body and soul. Naturally, he hopes that Yang Wu can recognize the Star Tower as its master.
This makes it more likely that he will achieve his desired goals in the future.
Would you be willing to give it a try?
Would you be willing to give it a try?
The voice of the Mountain Sitting Guest boomed and echoed continuously in the hall.
At this moment, Yang Wu's mind was racing, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Although Yang Wu failed to claim mastery of the Star Tower in the simulation, he was not worried that he would fail in reality as well.
After all, with the existence of the Time Palace and the Time Simulator, during the Star Tower's more than 6,000-year recognition period, even if he slowly honed his will using the Time Simulator, he could still hone it to the limit of Universe Venerable.
"Should I choose to accept the Star Tower as my master?" Yang Wu hesitated.
Yang Wu, who was extremely familiar with the original plot, knew very well that the Star Tower was a God King Main Weapon that the Mountain Sitting Guest had forged before his reincarnation. Its quality was so high that it was probably rare even in the Origin Continent.
As for the other Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order in the Primal Universe, most of them were merely True God Level treasures, with the more powerful ones being Void True God Level treasures.
The Star Tower, as the God King Main Weapon, has many functions such as attacking, guarding souls, Flying Palace-type, and sealing, and can be said to have endless uses.
Even among ordinary God King Level Weapon, it would probably take ten to compare to one like this.
If Yang Wu were to truly recognize the Star Tower as his master, he would gain even more attention from the Reincarnated God King, the Mountain Sitting Guest.
When Yang Wu first arrived at the Star Tower, he never considered the matter of becoming Star Tower master.
After all, in Yang Wu's eyes, he was following the path of the Divine Body of the Yan God Race Lineage, so the matter of recognizing the Star Tower as its master should naturally be completed by Luo Feng, the Earth Human Lineage who had cultivated the <Nine Tribulations Secret Manual>.
However, in the previous simulation, the Mountain Sitting Guest gave him this choice.
Fortunately, the attempt to claim ownership failed, and Yang Wu breathed a sigh of relief, since this meant he no longer had to worry about the Star Tower's claim.
But now--
When Yang Wu heard the Mountain Sitting Guest offer the option of the Star Tower of Recognition, he began to consider the possibility of the Star Tower of Recognition.
"Selling the Heavy Treasure Purple Bell would be enough to keep the Time Palace running at a hundred times the time flow rate for the next several thousand years."
"In this way, I can conduct a simulation every seven years or so in the Primal Universe. Over the six thousand years of recognizing the master, I have enough time to conduct nearly a thousand simulations!"
"How could nearly a thousand simulations combined fail to complete the Star Tower's recognition of its master?"
As Yang Wu pondered the matter of recognizing the Star Tower as his master, various past experiences kept flashing through his mind.
When faced with the Yunmo Star Inheritance, the Golden Horned Beast, or even the <Nine Tribulations Secret Manual>, Yang Wu did not hesitate at all.
Because he knew in his heart that even without these, he could still become a pinnacle existence in the universe by relying on the Time Simulator!
It was precisely for this reason that Yang Wu never thought of seizing Luo Feng's opportunities; in fact, he did his best to preserve all the opportunities that Luo Feng had ever encountered.
For example, Possession the Golden Horned Beast, or the Beast God Statue in the Golden Horned Tribe's homeland...
But for a moment, he hesitated.
Yang Wu raised his head, his gaze deep and unfathomable.
At the top of the main hall, there is a sky Sealing Star, which gives people a sense of etherealness.
Yang Wu was very clear--
With just a slight nod and a "yes," the Star Tower, a treasure coveted even by God King, would belong to him.
Luo Feng's fate will also become unpredictable, heading into the unknown fog.
Perhaps with good luck, Luo Feng might obtain other opportunities; perhaps with bad luck, Luo Feng would simply fade into obscurity. Even if he were to cultivate for many years and grow into a super being, he would never again be as amazing as he was in the original story.
Yang Wu himself will embark on a broader and smoother path, becoming even stronger with the help of the God King, the Mountain Sitting Guest.
"Is this... my desire?" Standing quietly in the main hall, Yang Wu questioned his own heart and fell into deep thought.
Although his willpower had significantly improved after the last simulation, this was not an illusion, but a desire from the depths of his heart, and resistance from his will was naturally futile.
As long as there is life, there will inevitably be desires; desires are endless and incredibly complex.
Yang Wu had always thought his will was strong enough, but only now did he realize that it was because the temptations he faced were not great.
Desire is the source of progress in life.
Even the most detached and ascetic person still has desires; it's just that their desires and pursuits are different from those of ordinary people, and are more unique.
Some pursue the path of the strong, some pursue pleasure, and some pursue the desires of the palate...
In short, desires are an inherent part of human life.
Want to control your desires?
Easier said than done!
Perhaps if another Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order were placed before Yang Wu, he could remain unmoved, follow his heart, and not be controlled by desire.
If Luo Feng had already acknowledged the Star Tower as his master, he wouldn't feel any jealousy; he would only offer his silent blessings.
But now, the Star Tower was originally unclaimed; he was the one who arrived here first, and now the choice is in his hands!
"Perhaps, because of my arrival, the plot of the original story has changed, and Luo Feng's attempt to recognize the Star Tower as his master will fail?"
This was Yang Wu's thought, and also a reason to convince himself.
Choose to be the master of the Star Tower!
His future is destined to be even brighter!
It was precisely because Yang Wu knew what the Star Tower meant that he could not remain indifferent.
Countless powerful beings in the universe fight each other for precious treasures, even at the cost of their own lives!
Now, a God King Level main weapon is placed before him, waiting for him to recognize it as his master.
As he hesitated, Yang Wu vaguely recalled everything that had happened when he first arrived in this world.
At that time, he was just an ordinary Advanced Martial Arts Student. Later, through continuous efforts, he finally became a martial artist.
Later, with the help of the Time Simulator, he gradually reached his current level, and was even able to make countless powerful figures tremble with fear on the Outer-Region Battlefield.
Thinking of this, a smile suddenly appeared on Yang Wu's face.
Yes, he already possesses an incredibly powerful Time Simulator, so why would he need to covet Luo Feng's opportunities from the original story?
With the existence of the Time Simulator, if he wants treasures, he can simply search for them in the Universe Ocean!
Even if you can't find a treasure more powerful than the Star Tower in the Universe Ocean, then go to the Origin Continent!
As long as your belief is firm enough, you can be invincible.
At that moment, the two Mountain Sitting Guest seemed to sense a special change in Yang Wu.
"Teacher, what's wrong with our Third Junior Brother?" Puti asked softly.
"Huh?" The Mountain Sitting Guest also showed a hint of surprise on his face, and slowly said, "He's undergoing a transformation!"
The Mountain Sitting Guest could tell at a glance that Yang Wu was undergoing a transformation, a transformation of his state of mind.
Transcendent and refined, as if they had truly reached a supreme level of 'transcendence'.
After a moment, Yang Wu broke out of his silence.
"Master, your disciple does not wish to acknowledge the Star Tower as the master!" Yang Wu said to the imposing figure of the Mountain Sitting Guest.
"Oh? You've already made up your mind?" the Mountain Sitting Guest asked with great interest.
Just now, the Mountain Sitting Guest would have thought Yang Wu was cowardly and afraid of death, but after Yang Wu's recent transformation, he would no longer think that way.
Although the Mountain Sitting Guest did not know Wei He his disciple would give up the opportunity to recognize a Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order as his master, he knew it was definitely not because of fear of death.
And that is enough.
However, the Mountain Sitting Guest sighed inwardly, "He doesn't know that the Star Tower is not as simple as an ordinary Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order!"
"Teacher, I will never regret it!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.
He knew what he was refusing, but he no longer had any hesitation.
Because he has already made the best choice for himself.
"Even without the Star Tower, I will still stand atop the highest mountain!" Yang Wu set a goal for himself.
At this moment, Yang Wu's belief reached its peak.
Once Yang Wu figured it out, he suddenly felt enlightened.
"It's really boring when one person is invincible!"
"Luo Feng, you need to work harder, otherwise you'll only fall further and further behind me!"
At this moment, Yang Wu's gaze was deep and mysterious, as if he had traveled through time and space and seen the black-haired youth who was cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City.
For a thousand years, with the help of the Time Simulator, he has continuously surpassed one powerful figure after another.
How lonely it will be when there are no more rivals left!
The Mountain Sitting Guest looked at Yang Wu and continued, "Since you have made your decision, then the Star Tower is naturally out of your reach!"
"However, the Yan God Race Lineage also contains a path to the heavens! If you can successfully comprehend it, it's not impossible for you to become a super being who can rival your master in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Puti, Mountain Sitting Guest was referring to becoming the Universe Supreme Being, and he harbored the same ambition.
But Yang Wu knew very well that what the Mountain Sitting Guest meant was breaking through to the True God Realm with Life Gene Level of more than 90,000 times and achieving Infinite God Body. Only in this way could one be considered a true super strongman.
"This disciple will certainly strive to do my best!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.
"Hmm!" The Mountain Sitting Guest looked down at Yang Wu, nodded slightly, and said, "As for the two Supreme Treasure I prepared for you, I will place them in two dangerous locations. After you enter the Immortal realm, you can retrieve one of them, and after you become Universe Venerable, you can retrieve the second one!"
"Both of these dangerous places are extremely dangerous."
"When you obtain your second treasure, the day when you can roam the universe freely will not be far off!"
"These are the cosmic coordinates of those two dangerous locations, with detailed information on them!"
The Mountain Sitting Guest pointed at Yang Wu from afar, and then a beam of light flew directly into Yang Wu's mind. A flood of information rushed in, and Yang Wu understood everything.
"Remember, whatever you do, don't perish in those two dangerous places!" the Mountain Sitting Guest warned.
"Disciple understands!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.
"Alright, now that things are over, and you have this Supreme Treasure protecting you, you'll have to rely on yourself from now on. I won't help you with anything else!"
The Mountain Sitting Guest calmly said, "I look forward to the day you bring me a surprise!"
For the Mountain Sitting Guest, taking Yang Wu as his disciple was merely a way of expressing a glimmer of hope for the future.
It was precisely because he was incredibly powerful that he understood how difficult it was to become a God King.
Although anything is possible in the Primal Universe, even with his guidance and nurturing, it would still be too difficult to cultivate a peerless genius capable of reaching the God King realm in this Three Thousand Dimensional Universe Ocean!
With a slight tremor in the space, the Mountain Sitting Guest vanished from the Star Tower.
Only Yang Wu and Puti remained in the main hall.
"Third Junior Brother, congratulations!" Puti smiled and said, "Master originally only planned to take three disciples, but because of your appearance, Master has changed his mind!"
"Junior brother, I am ashamed!" Yang Wu replied, bowing his head slightly.
"Ha ha..."
Puti's figure shifted, becoming almost the same size as Yang Wu, except that his snake tail still dragged on the ground. "Your ability to break the limitation of a hundred times the Life Gene and become a disciple of your teacher is also your skill!"
"However, Third Junior Brother, you are a member of the Human Faction, yet you have given birth to a Clone of the Yan God Race Lineage. I'm afraid this will displease Second Junior Brother!"
"Of course, with the teacher present, I imagine Second Junior Brother won't make things too difficult for you!"
Now that you have successfully become my disciple, I will not keep you any longer!
After saying that, Puti smiled slightly, and another vortex appeared in front of Yang Wu.
"You can leave this place by going through this Vortex Passage!"
Since the leader of the Earth Human Lineage has not yet appeared, Puti naturally needs to remain in the Star Tower to guard it.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Yang Wu said with a smile, then took a step and disappeared into the spatial passage.
