Virtual Universe.

In the endless darkness, faint starlight flickers in the distance.

A simple Temple floats in mid-air.

In the not-too-large open space in front of the Temple, there was a long stone table. At the head of the long stone table was only a stone chair, while there was a row of stone chairs on each side. At this moment, these stone chairs were occupied by towering figures.

And at the highest point...

On the majestic throne, the Universe Master sat at the highest point, looking down upon all other powerful human beings. They were the super beings from the five major forces of the Human Race.

These majestic thrones, arranged in order, were all dazzling gold except for the two in the very center, which were black, and all exuded a solemn aura! One of the black thrones was faintly carved with a Giant Axe, and seated upon it was a Savage -looking giant with thick fingers and disheveled long hair. However, the other black throne beside him was shrouded in Chaos energy, making it difficult for the onlookers to see clearly, but they could vaguely confirm that it belonged to the City Lord of Chaos!

Apart from the one in the very far corner, which was empty and unoccupied, the other 18 golden thrones were all occupied by imposing figures.

"Everyone!" The City Lord of Chaos's gentle yet powerful voice rang in everyone's ears. "The reason for this Supreme Council is... the Primitive Star is about to open, and we need to quickly come up with a plan!"

"The Primitive Star is about to open? It seems the interval since the last opening is less than 30,000 epochs, right? It's been coming quite frequently! But this is also a good thing, at least Chaos has completed its breakthrough this time, and the race can also obtain more Supreme Treasure in this operation!" The Lord of Huang Jian Desolate Mirror, with a ferocious appearance, complex scales all over his body, three sharp horns on his head, and who at first glance looks like a humanoid beast, and whose aura is equally domineering, laughed.

The most Core Land in the entire universe is the "Origin Place of the Universe," yet for countless Years, apart from the occasional descent of consciousness to the Origin Place of the Universe the Origin Place of the Universe, no super-powerful being has ever been able to personally reach it! It seems like an illusory place, but the Primitive Star is truly real.

Primitive Star, totaling [number]!

According to messages transmitted since the birth of the universe, this Primitive Star orbits the "Origin Place of the Universe," making it arguably the closest place in the entire universe to the "Origin Place of the Universe." This Primitive Star also harbors countless treasures, as well as numerous dangers.

There are tens of thousands of passages leading to the Primitive Star, but these passages are normally closed, only opening once every extremely long Years. Each opening lasts for a thousand epochs! After a thousand epochs, they will close... All powerful beings who enter must exit before the closure, or they will surely perish!

No matter what secret techniques are used, such as lingering in Clone or lingering in an incarnation, they are all ineffective. As long as one remains on the Primitive Star when the seal is closed... one will surely perish! There are no exceptions! This is the most mysterious place in the Primal Universe! No other place can surpass it.

This Primitive Star, though fraught with danger, also holds countless treasures. The most valuable Heavy Treasure are insignificant, while Supreme Treasure frequently appear! The super-beings of billions of races across the universe engage in a frenzied battle here, vying for treasures for their respective groups! Each opening is a terrifying carnage... and with each opening, a Universe Master perishes within its confines.

It's bloody and cruel, but it also drives countless powerful individuals mad!

"That's true, but the problem is that Chaos's breakthrough this time might cause the other Three Great Peak Races to join forces against Giant Axe and Chaos! If that happens, our Human Race might suffer a great loss!" The Lord of Qing Dong Qingdong, dressed in a blue battle armor and wearing a blue cloak, expressed another rather pessimistic view with a heavy expression.

The other Universe Master present also began to converse with each other, exchanging their different perspectives.

"Huh, Tian Xin isn't here again? I remember he wasn't at the last Supreme Council either!" Just as everyone was exchanging thoughts, Lord of Peng Gong suddenly spoke up. "Could it be that he's encountered some trouble?"

"He seems to be in a deep state of cultivation. I went to see him in the Black-Veined Stone Pillar space last time. He seems to be tempering his will in an area with a time flow rate of 90,000 times, so I didn't go to disturb him!" the Lord of Chaos said.

"In that case, it makes sense! But we still need to talk to Darkness about him. It's Years more than a dozen epochs. Even if he wanted to cultivate, he wouldn't be short of a wisp of consciousness. It seems like the last time he logged into the Virtual Universe was more than a dozen epochs Years, right?" The slightly hot-tempered Lord of Void Gold said to the Lord of Darkness beside him.

After listening to the Lord of Void Gold's words, the Lord of Darkness pondered for a moment and then simply sent an email to Lu Yan'an: "I think you're right. I just sent him a message, and he should be online soon! Void Gold, you're not wrong either; it really has been a long time since I've seen him!"

As the Lord of Darkness had predicted, things quickly...

A figure appeared out of thin air on the empty throne in the Temple. It was Lu Yan'an, dressed in a simple white robe. Since his real self liked to wear plain white robes, Lu Yan'an in the Virtual Universe naturally preferred to appear in a white robe.

"Teacher, and everyone else!" Lu Yan'an glanced around and then greeted the highest-ranking humans present with a smile.

"Heavens—" The Lord of Darkness was about to say something sarcastic to Lu Yan'an when he suddenly frowned as if he had noticed something and began to observe Lu Yan'an carefully.

The City Lord of Chaos, standing to the side, was incredibly perceptive! Seeing the Lord of Darkness's unusual expression, he followed the Lord of Darkness's gaze to Lu Yan'an, and was immediately taken aback.

Upon seeing him, one could instantly sense the difference between this newly appointed Lord of Heavenly Heart and the others!

After all... the Lu Yan'an before him had changed too much. It was an innate quality. Some people develop a more resolute and sharp temperament after many battles, while others develop a scholarly air after reading a lot. Different experiences can change one's temperament, and when Lu Yan'an digested the Basic Inheritance left by the Xin Dao Ren, his vision and realm underwent earth-shattering changes, far surpassing many of the Universe Supreme Being. With his current foundation, he could completely be a teacher to some of the Universe Supreme Being and guide them.

"You've broken through?" the City Lord of Chaos asked, somewhat uncertainly.

"Yes!" Lu Yan'an didn't hide anything, but nodded with a smile.

"Good." The City Lord of Chaos nodded in admiration, his face beaming. "Excellent! To break through to the Universe Master in just twenty epochs—your talent is simply beyond my imagination!"

"His current combat strength might have reached the fifth tier?"

"Fifth rank? That's no problem!" After considering it for a moment, Lu Yan'an replied, "It's more than fifth rank!"

"Oh?" Upon hearing Lu Yan'an's answer, the Lord of Darkness's eyes lit up, and he immediately became somewhat uneasy, eagerly asking, "You also obtained the Supreme True Treasure?"

"You could say that! Didn't a Nyarlathotep Wormhole appear in that Dustless Land before? I obtained a legacy behind that wormhole!" Lu Yan'an explained.

"The Nyarlathotep Wormhole?" A voice suddenly rang out; it was the Lord of Dragon Walk who had been silent until now. "It is said that the Nyarlathotep Wormhole only appears once in a Reincarnation Era, and only those whose willpower is one level higher than their current strength can gain anything from it. You actually obtained the inheritance from within?"

Lu Yan'an smiled noncommittally at this moment.

"It seems his lineage is extraordinary." The Giant Axe Founder turned to look at the City Lord of Chaos and the Lord of Darkness, and said with great emotion, "When he first came online, the first thing I saw about him was like seeing the Yuan Zu from back then. The Yuan Zu also liked to wear white robes."

"It certainly has that feel to it," the City Lord of Chaos chuckled. "I just wonder what kind of inheritance could have caused such a tremendous transformation in you!"

"It's clear he's gained quite a bit this time!" Giant Axe looked at Lu Yan'an with a slightly expectant smile and asked, "How was this inheritance? How was it this time? How much has it helped our Human Race? Is there any guarantee that it will allow humanity to Transcendence of Reincarnation?"

Lu Yan'an nodded, his expression instantly turning enigmatic. "To put it simply, the hidden inheritance behind the Nyarlathotep Wormhole has an incredibly terrifying origin! Now that I've obtained it, the gains are naturally immense! To put it simply, I now have cultivation guidance from the Immortal stage all the way to the limits of the Universe Supreme Being. I can even provide assistance with cultivation beyond the Universe Supreme Being!"

That's quite a boast!

Upon hearing this, the Giant Axe Founder and the City Lord of Chaos exchanged glances, their eyes lighting up. Though the words were arrogant, they certainly liked to hear them!
