Revisiting the Chaos Stele

"Heading to Chaos City?" The City Lord of Chaos glanced at Lu Yan'an, as if he had remembered something.

"Alright," he nodded.

The City Lord of Chaos readily agreed to Lu Yan'an's request to go to Chaos City to study the Chaos Stele.

The Core Member of the five major powers—those at the Universe Level, Domain Lord level, and World Lord Level— have the opportunity to cultivate in Chaos City. Normally, someone like Lu Yan'an, who has just broken through to the Domain Lord level, would be sent to Universe Country and would not be allowed to go to Chaos City.

Generally speaking, members who have just broken through to the Domain Lord level haven't even fully grasped the first three diagrams of the Chaos Stele, so what are they going to do in Chaos City?

However, there are always exceptions.

The City Lord of Chaos was well aware that Lu Yan'an's Law Comprehension at least at the 14th level of the Tongtian Bridge. Having already fully comprehended the Law Essence of the universe, he indeed needed the guidance of the Chaos Stele; otherwise, it might seriously slow down his Law Comprehension.

Being stuck on the threshold of the 15th level of the Tongtian Bridge is an extremely delicate situation. Tongtian Bridge through the 15th level grants Law Comprehension comparable to Marquis Immortal! The Lord of Tian Shi Palace personally witnessed Lu Yan'an's battle against the Blood Venerable in the Xueluo World, and he specifically reported the details of the battle to the City Lord of Chaos! Therefore, the higher-ups are generally aware of Lu Yan'an's current Law Comprehension.

"I'll arrange this for you. Someone will send you to the Initial Universe later," said the City Lord of Chaos.

"Thank you, City Lord." Lu Yan'an bowed respectfully.

Immediately--

Under the arrangement of the City Lord of Chaos, Lu Yan'an boarded the Virtual Universe Company's spaceship and entered the "Initial Universe" through the Cosmic Passage at the location of the Original Secret Realm.

The Universe Evolution, and the Initial Universe was a Miniature Universe in the early stages of evolution. Spatial rifts could be seen everywhere in the sky, with crystalline threads flowing through the rifts, striving to repair them. And those visible Universe Operating Laws were explaining the most fundamental mysteries of the entire universe!

Repairing and cracking again and again, endlessly repeating, just like the infinite alternation of time and space.

Chaos City, the only ancient city in the entire Initial Universe, is arguably no exaggeration to call it the "mother city" of Cosmic Humans!

"Rumble..."

A Class F spaceship, shaped like a sharp sword, hovered above Chaos City, its hatch open.

"Your His Highness An Lu Yan'an, you are already very familiar with Chaos City, so we will not disturb your freedom of movement. When you need to return to the Original Secret Realm, just come back here. We will always be here." The two black-robed Immortal God looked at Lu Yan'an, and the one in the lead greeted him with a smile.

"Thank you for your help." Lu Yan'an smiled and thanked him.

"Of course, it's our duty," the two black-robed Immortal God hurriedly replied.

As core staff members of the Virtual Universe Company, they had extensive connections and were well-informed, giving them a deeper understanding of Lu Yan'an's status and position. It's important to understand that Lu Yan'an's return to Chaos City was only at the Domain Lord level, and it was only with the special permission of the City Lord of Chaos! The impact this had on the two low-level Immortals of the Virtual Universe Company was immense; after all, they weren't even qualified to meet the City Lord of Chaos...

After watching Lu Yan'an transform into Flowing Light and fly out of the cabin door.

The two couldn't help but discuss it telepathically. "Everyone says that His Highness An Lu Yan'an is the most talented genius in our Virtual Universe Company in nearly ten thousand epochs. Seeing him today, it's truly well-deserved! He's only just broken through to the Domain Lord level, yet he's already received such high regard from the City Lord of Chaos. Who knows how strong he'll become in the future!"

"They say the more talented someone is, the more arrogant they become, but I didn't expect that when I actually met them, they were quite easy to get along with. Unlike some of the Primordial Secret Realm Masters I've encountered before, I still remember them to this day. They acted as if I owed them something, with such gloomy faces!"

"Perhaps this is the demeanor of a peerless genius!"

The two Immortal Expert grew increasingly excited as they spoke. Although Lu Yan'an was merely a Domain Lord, a "low-level" life form they could easily annihilate, it couldn't stop them from being thrilled by Lu Yan'an's genius. Thanks to the cover provided by the City Lord of Chaos, some of Lu Yan'an's actions remained hidden, but even the few things that were widely known were incredibly legendary!

Whoosh!

Lu Yan'an landed lightly on the wide street and looked around. In the distance, on the rooftops of Cultivation Residence, ascetics sat cross-legged in meditation. World Lord and Immortal God were everywhere, though the vast majority were Immortal God. Everything was just as it had been when he left; nothing had changed.

The powerful individuals who cultivate diligently in Chaos City possess an aura far stronger than those outside. Less than a hundred years is simply too short a time to change anything.

"Chaos City, I'm back."

Lu Yan'an looked up at the crystalline threads and flowing Secret Pattern of the cracks in the Chaos sky, and was filled with emotion.

Less than a century after leaving, I returned to this ancient city, which was exactly the same as it had been then.

But he has undergone tremendous changes.

"Huh? How come there's a little guy at the Domain Lord level?"

"He looks familiar... wait, isn't that Lu Yan'an who left Chaos City decades ago? Why is he back in Chaos City?"

"Who knows? Maybe the higher-ups have something to say..."

Lu Yan'an overheard some discussions, mostly about his return to Chaos City less than a century after leaving. Only a few guessed that it was an arrangement by the higher-ups. But it didn't matter; everyone was just curious, and soon everyone returned to their own world.

"Cultivating in Chaos City will be much more efficient. My Demon Beast Clone is thriving in comprehending the Darkness Chaos Stele. In addition, my main body is also comprehending it at the same time, so my comprehension of the Chaos Stele will be even faster," Lu Yan'an to himself.

Within Chaos City reside the Chaos Stele and the manifested Universe Operating Laws. In terms of the efficiency of comprehending these laws, it is ten times that of the outside world!

Furthermore, the efficiency of Lu Yan'an's Demon Beast Clone in comprehending the Darkness Chaos Stele was dozens of times that of Lu Yan'an's main body. The combination of these two factors resulted in an increase in efficiency, making it at least a thousand times faster than before!

By using this Clone bug, Lu Yan'an's one year in Chaos City was equivalent to the cultivation effect of thousands of years in the Original Universe!

Comprehending the Chaos Stele once takes 7 days, but through this method, the Demon Beast Clone has essentially spent over 20 years comprehending it! This doesn't even include Lu Yan'an's original Domain Lord body; if you combine them, the efficiency is even more terrifying!

"Then let's go and study the Chaos Stele now!" After finding a place to stay, Lu Yan'an finally set off for the City Lord Mansion to study the Darkness Chaos Stele.

"Over the years, I have made great progress in my Law Comprehension. I have completely comprehended the third diagram and am now relying on my previous cursory glance at the Fourth Diagram. It has been so long since I studied the Chaos Stele, and many questions have accumulated in my mind. Going there now should yield considerable gains."

When one's Law Comprehension has deepened and numerous questions arise regarding cultivation, it is best to study the Chaos Stele. Opportunities to study the Chaos Stele are ultimately limited and should not be wasted.

Lu Yan'an soon arrived at the City Lord Mansion's mansion. The City Lord Mansion occupied a vast area, and he knew the way well, quickly arriving at the tall and spacious secret corridor. Along the corridor, one could see huge bronze doors on both sides.

He walked very skillfully to the bronze gate inscribed with the word "Darkness".

"Lord Kandri, it's been a long time!" Lu Yan'an respectfully bowed to the three-eyed old Guardian the gate.

[I recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Everyone should give it a try!]

"Lu Yan'an? Why are you back?" Kandri asked in surprise. He then closed his eyes briefly, opened them a moment later, and smiled, "So it was the City Lord who specially approved your return to study the Chaos Stele. Not bad! You have 25 chances to study it. Do you want to study the Darkness Chaos Stele now?"

He appeared extremely friendly, speaking with a smile.

"Yes." Lu Yan'an nodded and smiled. "I have fully understood the first three pictures, so I need to start studying the later ones."

"Haha, you're a promising young man! Keep up the good work and try to pass the 10th level of the Tongtian Bridge as soon as possible! There's no one in the secret chamber now, so you can go in and meditate directly." Kandri smiled and pointed to the huge bronze door behind him. With a rumbling sound, the bronze door slowly opened, and a dense Chaos energy flowed inside, making the secret chamber look very mysterious.

"Thank you, sir." Lu Yan'an bowed respectfully, then stepped directly into the cultivation chamber.
