Nine Sword Venerable's Invitation
As time passed, news of Yang Wu killing the Clone of the Venerable Shi Huo and possessing the strength of Top Universe Overlord gradually spread among the Human Race.
Of course, although the news had spread, it was at most circulating among the upper echelons of the human race.
Even the Universe Venerable in the Human Race have vaguely learned of this news.
Virtual Universe, Hong Alliance City, Inner City.
Inside a vast hall, three figures were conversing.
Two of them looked remarkably like Earthling. One had long, reddish-brown hair, translucent skin, black eyes, and a vertical line between his eyebrows. The other was less than three meters tall, dressed in emerald Green Coin armor, and had an ordinary appearance, yet he exuded an astonishing aura of power.
If Yang Wu were here, he would recognize two of these three people in real life: the Lord of Tian Shi and Venerable Zushu.
As for the other person, it is the Star Prison Demon Master, whose strength is comparable to that of the Lord of Tian Shi among the Human Race.
These three are the only three Top Universe Overlord in the Human Race, and they have made countless contributions to the Human Race over countless years.
After all, the strength of Top Universe Overlord is comparable to that of Universe Master, but if they die, they can be resurrected by Reverse Time and Space.
Therefore, when the Human Race encounters any troublesome matters, it is often the three members of the Lord of Tian Shi who handle them.
"That's incredible!"
The Lord of Tian Shi downed the fruit wine in his hand in one gulp, and couldn't help but sigh, "I never imagined that in just a few thousand years, that little guy who was only at the Universe Level back then has grown to a point where he can rival us!"
The Lord of Tian Shi has been guarding the Xueluo World for countless years, and he naturally has a memory of the scene when Yang Wu left the Xueluo World thousands of years ago.
When Yang Wu was waiting for the Nine Sword Venerable in the Tian Shi Palace, he had helped him a little, making Yang Wu more familiar with the complete Law of Fire.
But Yang Wu has reached such heights in just a few thousand years, something he never imagined.
"Indeed!" The Venerable Zushu waved his hand, refilling the wine cup that the Lord of Tian Shi had just put down with fruit wine, and then said, "I also had a brief encounter with Yang Wu. His talent and comprehension are indeed astonishing!"
"It's truly unbelievable that someone could possess the strength of Top Universe Overlord in such a short time!"
In fact, Venerable Zushu is a rare and unparalleled genius among the Human Race.
Even super geniuses like Kedi and Shihuo are slightly inferior to him.
After all, before Yang Wu appeared, there were dozens of super geniuses in the Human Race who had fused with the Star Bead, but he was the only one who was able to break through the shackles and become Immortal God!
As for the Lord of Tian Shi and the Star Prison Demon Master, although they are also very talented, they have never fused with the Star Bead. As for being able to give birth to Clone with extremely high Life Gene Level, it is also due to other opportunities.
However, it took Venerable Zushu millions of years to become Immortal God. Although he quickly became Universe Venerable after becoming Immortal God, he only achieved that by virtue of his high Life Gene Level, thus gaining the strength of High-Level Universe Venerable.
As for becoming Universe Overlord, or even Top Universe Overlord, that is something that comes after a long period of secluded cultivation.
But what about Yang Wu?
From birth to now, I've only cultivated for a few thousand years!
"Alright!" The Star Prison Demon Master on the other side immediately spoke up, "It is something to celebrate that our Human Race has produced such a genius!"
"Moreover, the fact that the Venerable Shenwei possesses the strength of Top Universe Overlord is also a good thing for the three of us!"
"Right!"
"That's true!"
Upon hearing the Star Prison Demon Master's words, the Lord of Tian Shi and the Venerable Zushu both nodded in agreement.
After all, Top Universe Overlord of the Human Race are extremely rare. Although the strength of the three of them is considered extremely powerful even among Top Universe Overlord, it is still impossible for two fists to fight against four hands.
Even when occasionally venturing into the Cosmic Secret Realm, it's difficult to find companions of comparable strength.
Although there are some Top Universe Overlord within the Hong Alliance, none of them are as reassuring as companions from the same race.
"However!" The Lord of Tian Shi changed the subject, saying, "That Venerable Shenwei's cultivation time is far too short. He might soon become a new Universe Master among our Human Race, and then there will be only the three of us left!"
Among the three Top Universe Overlord of the human race, the Lord of Tian Shi has existed for the longest time. He even existed before some of the Universe Master of the Human Race were born.
Therefore, the Lord of Tian Shi had a clearer understanding of Yang Wu.
"Indeed, Universe Master!" Venerable Zushu sighed in agreement, "I wonder when we will be able to break through?"
The Venerable Zushu was the youngest of the three, yet he remained stuck at this realm for countless years, unable to break through.
Upon hearing Venerable Zushu's words, both the Lord of Tian Shi and the Star Prison Demon Master showed expressions of longing.
At their level, all they pursue is breakthrough!
Although Top Universe Overlord can be resurrected by Reverse Time and Space after their fall, they would certainly prefer to become the Universe Master if given the chance!
Of course, becoming the Universe Master is an extremely difficult thing, and it cannot be achieved simply by having talent or having a stroke of luck.
Human Race thousands of Universe Venerable, yet the number of Universe Master does not exceed twenty. Even this ratio is the envy of countless races in the universe.
Canglong Universe Kingdom, a rather dangerous Cosmic Secret Realm.
At this moment, the Nine Sword Venerable, the 'Chaos Stele Guardian' Kandeli, and the Venerable Azure Dragon were still exploring the secret realm.
Just after news of Yang Wu killing the Clone of the Venerable Shi Huo spread, the three members of the Nine Sword Venerable also received the news.
For a moment, the three of them, Nine Sword Venerable, were all stunned.
Oh my god!
How much time has passed?
Before the three of them had even finished exploring the secret realm, they discovered this astonishing news.
It's important to understand that although they had heard about Yang Wu before, they primarily regarded Yang Wu as an exceptionally outstanding junior among the Human Race!
But now, this former junior has grown to a height that even they have to look up to!
"How long has it been? Yang Wu's strength has already surpassed mine?"
Even the Nine Sword Venerable, who was extremely familiar with Yang Wu's strength, was shocked at this moment.
The Nine Sword Venerable knew very well that Yang Wu's strength would soon surpass his.
But this is way too fast!
The scene of Yang Wu giving him the Supreme Treasure Armor was still vivid in his mind. Over the years, the Nine Sword Venerable had been working hard to explore the secret realm, hoping to accumulate more Heavy Treasure points so that he could help his disciple Yang Wu.
It now seems that he can no longer help his disciple.
At this moment, the Nine Sword Venerable felt exactly the same way as the Jinguang Marquis had felt back then—a mixture of relief and slight regret.
"Nine Swords!" Kandeli looked at the Nine Sword Venerable with a hint of envy and said, "You little guy, you've really hit the jackpot!"
"With Venerable Shenwei's terrifying cultivation speed, it's probably only a matter of time before he becomes the supreme Universe Master!"
"If the future Venerable Shenwei gives you a little help, your strength will probably surpass mine!"
It's important to know that as a Universe Overlord with exceptional survival skills among the Human Race, Kandeli rarely envies other powerful individuals.
Even when Yang Wu gifted a Supreme Treasure Armor to the Nine Sword Venerable, he wasn't overly envious.
After all, he possesses the ability to Clone and is quite powerful. With the accumulation of countless years, even among the many Universe Overlord of the Human Race, he is among the ones with the most resources.
However, he has now begun to envy the Nine Sword Venerable!
It should be noted that although there are quite a few Universe Master among the Human Race, they are still very few compared to the large number of Universe Venerable.
Generally, the Universe Master among the Human Race will select some Universe Venerable to take as disciples. However, there are only a handful of Universe Master among the Human Race. Even if they take disciples, how many can they possibly take?
Therefore, many Universe Venerable within the Human Race have failed to become disciples of the Universe Master, just like the Venerable Azure Dragon beside the two of them...
Universe Venerable Venerables like the Nine Sword Venerable and the Venerable Shi Huo, who have the Lord of the Universe Master as their backer, naturally hold a higher status among the Human Race. Some of those who are highly regarded may even be bestowed with Supreme Treasure.
Just like the Supreme Treasure weapon that the Nine Sword Venerable previously possessed, it was a gift from the Lord of Longxing. Otherwise, how could someone of his High Venerable strength have acquired a Supreme Treasure weapon in such a short time?
But how can a disciple of the Universe Master compare to the Universe Master's teacher?
"My disciple has already helped me a great deal!" Nine Sword Venerable exclaimed from the side.
The value of that one piece of Supreme Treasure Armor back then already surpassed all the treasures he had accumulated over the long years!
Back then, Yang Wu didn't have the strength he has now, yet he still gave the Supreme Treasure Armor to his teacher without hesitation.
It can be said that taking Yang Wu as his disciple was the wisest decision he had made in his long life.
"Nine Swords!"
Listening to the conversation between the Nine Sword Venerable and the Azure Dragon Venerable, the Azure Venerable Azure Dragon suddenly said, "The three of us are exploring this secret realm a little too slowly. I wonder if you could invite the Venerable Shenwei to join us in exploring the secret realm?"
Unlike Kandeli, the Venerable Azure Dragon had never met Yang Wu, so he was naturally curious about Yang Wu, who could be called the most legendary super genius in the history of the Human Race.
Most importantly, the Venerable Azure Dragon also hoped to take this opportunity to forge a good relationship with Yang Wu, the future super-strongest of the Human Race, so that he could have a powerful backer in the future.
Upon hearing this, Kandeli's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Nine Swords, Qinglong's suggestion is excellent!"
"If Venerable Shenwei is willing to explore the secret realm with us, he can take 70% of the spoils, and the three of us can split the remaining 30% equally!"
Kandeli believed he had also considered the same thing that the Venerable Azure Dragon had thought of, and had shown great sincerity in doing so.
It should be noted that over the past few thousand years, the three of them had to share half of their spoils with Kandeli, while the Nine Sword Venerable and the Venerable Azure Dragon would take the other half.
"This..." Nine Sword Venerable hesitated.
Seeing this, Kandeli quickly continued, "Nine Swords, exploring the secret realm will also benefit Venerable Shenwei!"
"Although Venerable Shenwei is powerful, his cultivation speed is too fast. He probably has little experience in exploring secret realms and acquiring resources. If he could explore secret realms with us, it would surely bring many benefits!"
"That's true!" The Nine Sword Venerable nodded seriously, then said, "I'll give it a try and see if Yang Wu is really interested in coming here!"
Meanwhile, as Yang Wu was pondering what he should do, he suddenly received an email from his teacher, the Nine Sword Venerable.
"Hmm? Master Nine Sword Venerable is looking for me? Could it be because of things on Earth?" Yang Wu wondered to himself.
Although the problems on Earth have now been perfectly resolved, Yang Wu has never forgotten how much help the Nine Sword Venerable gave him when dealing with Earth's problems in the simulated experience before he had grown up!
Thinking of this, Yang Wu immediately put down what he was doing and rushed to the Nine Sword Venerable's temple halfway up Thunder Island.
Halfway up Thunder Island, in the temple of the Nine Sword Venerable.
Inside the temple hall was a round table that looked as if it were carved from jade. Three figures were sitting around the table: one was the Nine Sword Venerable, and the other two were Kandeli and Venerable Azure Dragon, who had been exploring the secret realm with the Nine Sword Venerable.
Yang Wu had just arrived when he met the three members of the Nine Sword Venerable.
At this moment, the three Nine Sword Venerable also saw Yang Wu and immediately got up to greet him.
"Teacher!" Yang Wu greeted the Nine Sword Venerable respectfully.
Seeing this, Kandeli and Venerable Azure Dragon felt even more envious of Nine Sword Venerable.
"Yang Wu!" The Nine Sword Venerable helped Yang Wu up, then pointed to Kandeli and the Venerable Azure Dragon and introduced them, "These two are my good friends. You are certainly familiar with Kandeli. As for this one, he is also a good friend of mine, the Venerable Azure Dragon!"
"Venerable Shenwei!"
"Venerable Shenwei!"
At the same time, both Kandeli and the Venerable Azure Dragon greeted Yang Wu with smiles.
"Kandeli, Venerable Azure Dragon!" Yang Wu nodded slightly in return.
At the same time, Yang Wu was also secretly sighing to himself.
There was a time when Kandeli called him "little guy" when he first met him, but now, he's on a completely different level!
"Yang Wu!" The Nine Sword Venerable led Yang Wu and the other two to sit down before saying, "As you know, I have been exploring a Cosmic Secret Realm within the Canglong Universe Kingdom recently, and I have made some gains over the years!"
"Now that you are strong enough, would you be willing to explore that secret realm with your master?"
"Explore the secret realm?" Yang Wu was slightly taken aback.
"I never expected to get such a helpful opportunity right after I was dozing off!"
He had been looking for something to do, and exploring the secret realm seemed like a good idea.
The secret realm explored by the Nine Sword Venerable and others was so advanced that anyone below the Universe Venerable would die upon entry.
For Yang Wu, acquiring treasures was secondary; being able to gain experience and help the Nine Sword Venerable was certainly a good thing.
With this in mind, Yang Wu accepted the Nine Sword Venerable's invitation.
Immediately after determining the allocation of resources, the Nine Sword Venerable personally returned to the Human Territory via the God Kingdom Teleportation and brought Yang Wu to the secret realm he was exploring.
The protagonist is already so powerful, why would anyone think it was an assassination attempt...? It definitely wasn't.
