The news of Lu Yan'an becoming the Domain Lord quickly spread throughout Yu Xiang Mountain.

Yu Xiang Mountain, as the gathering place of the most outstanding geniuses of the Virtual Universe Company, is coveted by everyone for the Primal Original Secret Realm. Therefore, as soon as Lu Yan'an broke through to the Domain Lord, his news spread outside.

"Has Lu Yan'an gone mad? Even among the geniuses of our Yu Xiang Mountain Primordial Secret Realm, 90% are capable of breaking through to the Domain Lord level at any time. But how many are as crazy as him?"

"The difference in strength between Universe Level genius and Domain Lord- level genius is enormous. Isn't his breakthrough a complete waste of his talent? It's incredibly foolish! How long has he been cultivating to the Universe Level?"

"Right, the weakest Domain Lord-level genius in the Primordial Secret Realm is at least at the tenth level of the Sky Bridge, right? With this move, isn't he directly placing himself at the bottom among the Domain Lord-level geniuses in the Primordial Secret Realm? What's wrong with Lu Yan'an?"

"Who knows!"

"He's not worried about the Qualification Battle? He'd be a sure-fire last place in the Domain Lord level Qualification Battle, wouldn't he? He's brainless!"

"Brother, is it possible that the geniuses of the Original Secret Realm don't need to participate in the Secret Realm Qualification Battle now?"

"Huh? This..."

In a private room inside the Tianxing Hotel in the Public District.

The top ten geniuses from that year's Genius Tournament gathered here, mainly to celebrate Lu Yan'an's breakthrough. Both Ming Feng and Xun Kong were somewhat stunned when they learned that Lu Yan'an had actually broken through to the Domain Lord level.

"Dream Demon, you're really something else! No matter what, I have to give you a toast just for your courage!" Ming Feng picked up his fruit beer and said with a hint of admiration. Then everyone present raised their fruit wines to Lu Yan'an.

"Hahaha, come on, drink! You'll all get to this point sooner or later! I'll go scout ahead for you." Lu Yan'an held up his wine glass. Clink! Clink! The group's glasses clinked together, and they tilted their heads back and drank it down.

"Dream Demon!" Xun Kong stood up and laughed, "Universe Level geniuses stay at their level for thousands of years, while Domain Lord- level geniuses stay at their level for tens of thousands of years. Therefore, the Domain Lord- level members of the 'Primordial Secret Realm' must have at least passed the eighth level of the Tongtian Bridge. The Original Secret Realm requires at least the Tenth Layer!"

"I know that!"

Lu Yan'an replied with a smile, "Of the 100 Domain Lords in the Primordial Secret Realm Domain Lord, 72 have passed the eighth level, 27 have passed the ninth level, and 1 has passed the Tenth Layer of the Tongtian Bridge!"

"Of the three Domain Lords in the Original Secret Realm Domain Lord, two have cleared the Tenth Layer and one has cleared the eleventh level. Am I right?"

"Since you know this, why did you still do it? With this breakthrough, you'll immediately become the bottom of the Original Secret Realm Domain Lord level geniuses, right?" Ming Feng asked with some doubt, and this was also the common question of everyone in the private room. In their impression, Lu Yan'an didn't seem to be the kind of person who only cared about immediate benefits.

"What's there to be afraid of? I'm currently at the bottom of the Original Secret Realm, but there's no need to go through the Secret Realm Qualification Battle there. Besides, who can say for sure I won't break through before the Qualification Battle begin?" Lu Yan'an laughed. "As long as I keep improving, I don't care about the resources in the secret realm!"

It's important to understand that Lu Yan'an has already secretly broken through to the Tongtian Mountain, a Universe Level Domain Lord. This means that at the Tongtian Bridge level, he has at least reached the 13th level! Could this mere Secret Realm Qualification Battle possibly frighten him?

"Can you guarantee that you will continue to improve and not be limited by bottlenecks?" Ming Feng stared at Lu Yan'an, his expression very serious, and asked again.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan'an simply smiled slightly, took a sip of wine, and said no more.

"Yes! At least you still have the courage to fight and struggle. Look at us..." Xun Kong said with a slightly bitter tone.

The group of people at the table fell silent.

As seeded contestants who entered the Core Layer of the first Genius Tournament, their cultivation time was incredibly short! Currently, they are generally at a relatively low level in the Primordial Secret Realm. Even though they are all exceptionally talented, it is difficult for them to compare with those who have spent hundreds or even thousands of years cultivating in the Primordial Secret Realm. In the Primordial Secret Realm, apart from Ming Feng and Xun Kong, everyone is at risk of slipping down!

Six months later.

Junior brother!

The sound was deafening.

Lu Yan'an was startled awake from his cultivation and flew out of the training ground in a flash. At this moment, in the reception hall, everyone, including the leader of the Guard Army, Immortal Hisoka, stood respectfully to the side. Still wearing the familiar red battle robe, Venerable Gui Yi had a faint smile on his face, and he looked very calm. Just looking at him made everyone feel a sense of comfort.

"Senior brother?" Lu Yan'an was puzzled when he saw Venerable Gui Yi. Why was his adopted senior brother here?

"Haha, Junior Brother, how have you been!" Venerable Gui Yi was quite happy to see Lu Yan'an. He waved his hand, and everyone around him consciously left, leaving only Lu Yan'an and him on the field.

"I have a new task for you now," Venerable Gui Yi said, looking at Lu Yan'an. "In the Xueluo Secret Realm Primordial Secret Realm, there is a mission world called 'Xueluo World.' You need to enter this 'Xueluo World' and become a Black Warrior!"

"Entering this place to train and complete the tasks assigned by your teacher will be your first task after reaching the Domain Lord level."

"Right now."

"You can also choose to refuse, but in that case you will need to be dispatched to the Ganwu Universe Country according to the company's normal procedures!"

"Of course, you can also choose to refuse and be sent abroad directly!"

The meaning of Venerable Gui Yi is very clear: this is the company's arrangement for you, and the choice of how to proceed is entirely up to you!

Moreover, the special mission of this Black Warrior was probably planned by the City Lord of Chaos and his teacher, with the aim of raising his Life Gene Level to the highest level under normal circumstances by 100 times!

"Since both my teacher and senior master want me to go to the Xueluo World, I naturally won't refuse," Lu Yan'an said with a smile.

In fact, compared to facing assassination attempts from Alien Race while out in the open, obtaining opportunities in the Xueluo Secret Realm would be far more beneficial for him. He had intentionally avoided going to the Xueluo World during his previous mission. The Xueluo World was completely incompatible with his path; its laws were more suited to geniuses specializing in the Law of Space. Overall, while there were benefits to this mission, they weren't many! After all, he could always rely on the "Blood of the Beast God" as a backup plan.

But now that his teacher has personally ordered him to go, it's obviously difficult to refuse! And it's clear that this is a special task deliberately arranged by his teacher to prevent him from being sent out on assignment.

"Okay, I'll send you the details of the mission first." Venerable Gui Yi nodded with a smile.

At the same time--

Lu Yan'an's virtual network access device on his right wrist vibrated slightly. He immediately sent a sliver of his consciousness to connect to the Virtual Universe Network and check the detailed messages in the email.

"This mission is a special mission exclusively for Lu Yan'an, Primal Secret Region Member (Domain Lord level)!"

The Xueluo World is a vast continent suspended in the void, born from the Primordial Secret Realm. Cosmic Secret Realm are born during the Universe Evolution, and the Xueluo World is a powerful world that was born in the very early period of the Primordial Secret Realm. Its antiquity surpasses that of the oldest Universe Country of humankind.

In the Xueluo World, countless powerful humans live, and they have developed their own language, culture, and cultivation civilization.

They have an extreme worship of power.

You are now in this area. Complete the following objectives:

Acquire 100 Xueluo Crystal to increase quest completion by 10%; there is no penalty for quest failure.

Becoming Blood Warrior increases mission completion rate by 20%, and there is no penalty for mission failure.

Becoming Blood Warrior increases mission completion rate by 70%, and there is no penalty for mission failure.

Hunt down an immortal within the Ancient God Ruins. (Special completion condition; completing this condition will increase the mission completion rate by 100%)

Mission deadline: 100 years (failure to complete the mission by the deadline will be considered a failure).

Mission Reward: The final reward score is calculated by multiplying the total completion rate by 10 million. (Note: Completion rates under special completion conditions can be combined with normal completion rates.)

Task recipient: Lu Yan'an

Lu Yan'an looked at the contents of the email, somewhat surprised. "The points reward for this mission is so high! Normally, the Highest Points Mission for Domain Lord- level mission is only 2 million points. This must be intentional training. But aren't my teachers overestimating me? Hunting down an Immortal from the Ancient God Ruins?"

Immortals and Domain Lord are fundamentally different species; it's practically impossible for Domain Lord to defeat an Immortal. Moreover, the Immortals within the Ancient God Ruins are all beings that have fused with Xueluo Crystal!

He shook his head inwardly. "Especially this task of killing an immortal, with a 100-year deadline, it's very likely that it was set up because they knew I couldn't do it."

Lu Yan'an didn't think much of it and looked at Venerable Gui Yi: "Senior brother, let me be ready before we set off."

"Alright, prepare whatever you need to buy in advance, I'll wait for you for a day!" Venerable Gui Yi nodded.

One day later.

"Alright, let's go," Lu Yan'an said.

"Alright." Venerable Gui Yi smiled, and then divine power emanated from his body, enveloping Lu Yan'an.

Brush!

The two of them vanished into thin air in an instant!
