Taking Advantage
When Lu Yan'an came to his senses, he found himself back in the staircase passage built by the strange beast when he first entered, and beneath his feet was still that abyss filled with a strange attraction.
"I feel completely cheated!" Lu Yan'an said with a hint of complaint. He had finally encountered a powerful inheritance, and after passing their minimum requirements for inheritance, he was received by a group of people.
Then, without giving him anything explicit, he was only presented with difficult problems. He was even told that he could only break through to True God and meet him after fulfilling his demands! What kind of outrageous inheritance is this? It's like casting a wide net!
In fact, Lu Yan'an had roughly guessed what this God King Qi was thinking. He simply didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket. Even with the God King, the treasures he left behind were naturally limited, and it was impossible to give everything to just any random native genius. He set a goal for him, and if he could achieve it, then they could talk about the inheritance. If he couldn't even complete the most basic goal, then there was no need to talk about the inheritance anymore.
After all, this God King Qi didn't treat him with the same desperate gamble that the Zuoshanke on City Lord Luo after refining the Star Tower. Having already completely perished, he had plenty of time to choose a satisfactory successor for himself!
In the Virtual Universe, in the Original District of Yu Xiang Mountain, at Lu Yan'an's manor.
Inside the study.
After he confirmed that he had submitted the basic information that could be submitted within this Purgatory Abyss, he quickly received feedback from the company regarding the third stage of the mission.
"You have completed the third stage of the Highest Points Mission. Based on the evaluation of all members, Lu Yan'an, your final completion rate for the third stage of the mission is 90%, earning you 270 million points. You have thus successfully completed the Virtual Universe Company's Highest Points Mission!"
"After final discussion, your bonus task completion rate is 80%. You have now earned a total of 2.92 billion points in this highest-level task. Congratulations!"
Overall Comments: In the first mission, your use of Clone for exploration, and your isolation of the Clone from your own weaknesses, was a very clever and cautious move. In future cosmic adventures, you need to maintain this level of caution and a sense of awe for the universe!
In the second stage, you made very little use of the mission's intelligence, even bordering on reckless, which puts my evaluation of your first stage mission in a dilemma. Fortunately, you still managed to complete this mission alive, a task that would have been impossible during your time as Domain Lord. You have brains, but you often fail to use them at crucial moments! This is your biggest flaw right now, and I hope you can correct it in time.
You did a great job on the third quest, and you also knew how to cleverly use your Clone for exploration. I hope you will make good use of the advantages of Clone in future quests!
The highest mission has officially ended.
As for how the Virtual Universe Company views him because of this mission, Lu Yan'an is also very dismissive.
Essentially, these high-ranking officials have rather one-sided views on themselves, even subjective assumptions! They like to label others without understanding the overall situation.
Even in City Lord Luo's time, this was still the same monstrosity! In the original work, these high-ranking officials had quite a few complaints about City Lord Luo's emphasis on his father, using phrases like, "Humans are inherently social beings, and it is true that they should value their families. But everything has its proper measure, and you have clearly gone 'excessive' in this regard. Please be aware of this." This incredibly touching logic.
They weren't looking at the issue from Lu Yan'an's personal perspective, but rather from the perspective of higher-ups selecting subordinates. This resulted in a visibly rigid management style. They didn't need a brilliant, independent-minded individual; they only needed a puppet subordinate who would completely obey them!
After completing the Highest Points Mission, Lu Yan'an directly applied to the Virtual Universe Company to go to "Chaos City". As Core Layer genius of the Original Secret Realm, all levels of the Universe Level, Domain Lord, and World Lord Level have the opportunity to enter Chaos City for cultivation. His application was naturally approved very quickly. Then, through the God Kingdom Teleportation, Immortal Hisoka directly sent Lu Yan'an to the Virtual Universe Company's all-universe headquarters.
Afterwards, Lu Yan'an, along with other Immortal God and others, entered the "Initial Universe" aboard the Virtual Universe Company's own spaceship.
As for Hisoka and his Guard Army, they couldn't go in, since it was the lair of human powerhouses, and its security was even better than that of the Original Secret Realm!
According to Lu Yan'an's own plan, by the time he leaves Chaos City, he will have reached the Peak World Lord. At that time, he will no longer be able to bring his Guard Army. In other words, from this moment on, the Guard Army has already separated from him. However, the existence of the Guard Army is dispensable to him. At present, Lu Yan'an's strength is even comparable to that of his Guard Army, the Immortal Hisoka!
The Universe Evolution, and the Initial Universe was a Miniature Universe in its early stages of evolution. Spatial rifts were visible everywhere in the sky, and crystalline threads flowed through the rift openings, striving to repair them. Repairing again and again, rifting open again and again, endlessly repeating...
Chaos City is the only ancient city in the entire Initial Universe.
"Rumble..." The oval-shaped spaceship stopped above Chaos City. The hatch opened, and a large number of figures from various races flew out. Among them was Lu Yan'an, dressed in white, who blended in without being noticed.
After Lu Yan'an and several hundred others flew out.
A streak of black light flew in from below Chaos City, revealing a distinguished-looking man in black robes. He grinned, saying, "Gentlemen, I am the reception envoy of Chaos City. Most of you have been to Chaos City before. Those familiar with Chaos City rules, please feel free to act as you see Chaos City; I'm sure you know what to do. Those of you visiting Chaos City for the first time, please follow me."
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
More than 50 figures flew towards the man in black robes, following the receptionist. These 50-plus people were all here for the first time, having obtained their spots through auctions and other means.
The other hundreds of people swooped down and scattered.
Lu Yan'an landed lightly on the wide street and looked around. In the distance, on the rooftops of Cultivation Residence, one could see ascetic cultivators sitting cross-legged in meditation. World Lord and Immortal God were everywhere, though the vast majority were Immortal God. Just by sensing the aura they exuded, even the aura of World Lord, those who could cultivate in Chaos City were much stronger than those outside.
"More than a hundred years! I've finally returned here!" Lu Yan'an exclaimed.
Over a hundred years ago, before undertaking this Highest Points Mission, he briefly visited Chaos City. His return was only possible through a special passage thanks to the special permission granted by the City Lord of Chaos. Now that he has completed the Highest Points Mission, his time abroad within the Universe Country is essentially over, and the higher-ups have tacitly agreed that he can return to Chaos City for further study!
"This return is only secondary to my comprehension of the Darkness Chaos Stele; the most crucial thing is my second Clone!" Lu Yan'an thought with some worry. To fulfill the requirements of the God King Qi, this second Clone slot absolutely cannot be wasted! For him, the lower-level laws are actually not so bad. Although he is currently only recognized by the Origin Law of Light, with the boost of 200 times the Life Gene Level, it's only a matter of time before he is fully recognized by the Eight Lower Origin Laws.
The most troublesome thing has become the Law of Space! Even with the boost of 200 times the Life Gene Level, the gap is still too large. Lu Yan'an's talent is basically all focused on the laws of Time Law and Law of Light. If we use numbers to represent the clarity of his Law Comprehension, if his time and light are initially 10, then his space is 1, a full 10 times difference!
For lower-level laws, if a clarity of Law Comprehension about 200 times greater can be easily recognized by the corresponding law, then this is far from enough for Higher Origin Law!
"In order to meet the minimum requirements of the God King Qi, Special Lifeform with spatial talent is the first choice for my second Clone!" Lu Yan'an considered. His purpose in returning to Chaos City this time was to ask his teacher, the Lord of Darkness, for help!
After all, if one cannot fully acknowledge the Law of Space before achieving immortality, it will be very difficult to comprehend them after achieving immortality.
When the Original Core shatters and immortality is achieved, the corresponding Immortal Divine Power of the lower-level law is infused into the body. If this Immortal Divine Power was not recognized by the higher-level law before immortality, it will affect the comprehension of the corresponding Higher Origin Law. This is an open secret, and it is also the reason why countless immortals, after experiencing endless Years, still have limited progress in higher-level laws!
