"Unbelievable, could it really be...?"

Jiang Yao, reborn in the Central Plaza after his death, paid no heed to the stares and discussions of the geniuses from various Universe Country around him.

For a moment, all that remained was surprise and astonishment.

Even if he had never eaten pork, he had seen pigs run. Jiang Yao was 100% certain that the anomaly that occurred when he used the "chew" technique at the last moment was definitely Fusion Law.

The Fire-Space Fusion Law!

Even if it's just a tiny, insignificant amount.

Because that moment felt so familiar to him.

Inside the Inheritance Tower of the Trial God Kingdom, he transformed into Bizhang for the second time and fought against Mo Hong, the Realm Lord sent by Yinhu Island to assassinate him. Jiang Yao's consciousness witnessed Bizhang's extreme operations throughout the entire process in the Xu Yuan Space.

After transforming into Bizhang's level was not much higher than Jiang Yao's human body. At most, he could only be considered to be at the initial stage of the universe level. According to Bajie, he was still equivalent to the childhood of a real Desolate God.

However, Bizhang was only equivalent to a beginner in the universe level, was able to cross two major realms and exert the strength of a World Lord Level. He was able to handle the attacks of Mo Hong, a ninth-level realm master, with ease and without fear of loss.

At that time, Jiang Yao could only sense that the Origin Law, under Bizhang's control, seemed to be able to turn decay into magic, unleashing an extremely powerful Combat Power Amplitude.

It was at that time that he conceived the idea of creating the "Nine Styles of Bizhang" based on Bizhang's every move.

When facing the Zerg Mother Nest just now, and when he unleashed that mutated "chew" technique, he immediately understood that Bizhang's attacks and defenses against World Lord Mo Hong inside the Inheritance Tower must have contained the Fusion Law.

If the timing and circumstances hadn't been so inappropriate, Jiang Yao would have loved to immediately unleash Nine-Character Secret of the <Nine Styles of Bizhang> to see if he could recapture that lingering sense of inspiration from before.

However, Jiang Yao's rationality suppressed his rapidly expanding excitement.

Even if that fleeting moment of inspiration was accidental and might not be able to be reproduced in the short term, he has Bizhang's will to act as a sparring partner in real time, so there is no need to rush.

Now it seems that Bizhang can actually use the Fusion Law, so isn't he just an alternative version of the Beast God? Only Beast God that is still developing.

And to be even more precise, Bizhang is him, he is Bizhang, and to round it off, Jiang Yao is the Beast God!

Having figured this out, Jiang Yao felt his future was limitless and was overjoyed.

"If the other eight Desolate God in the <Nine Transformations of the Desolate God> are all similar to Bizhang, wouldn't that mean there are nine future Beast God? Good heavens, I'm about to become a competitor with the Ancestral God Sect..."

Jiang Yao, who was daydreaming about creating a "Desolate God Sect" to compete with the Ancestral God Sect, was awakened by the voice of Venerable Tianhe.

"The Trial Space elimination round has ended. The top 100 participants will directly gain access to the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company! For participants ranked 101st to 7300th, the Virtual Universe System will automatically arrange arena battles for you based on your performance in the Trial Space. Half of the participants will be eliminated in each of the three battles, resulting in 900 winners."

As for the other participants, your journey in the Genius Tournament has come to an end.

Anyone who is unwilling to accept the rules of the arena or unwilling to join my Virtual Universe Company, can speak up now and you can withdraw."

Millions of geniuses from various Universe Country were either frustrated, calm, unwilling, or still immersed in the trial elimination rounds. Some were even secretly glancing at Jiang Yao, enthusiastically discussing the legends witnessed in this Trial Space elimination round.

However, under the majesty of Venerable Tianhe, all fell silent, and no one uttered a sound.

Venerable Tianhe was not surprised at all and nodded, saying, "The arena battles will begin tomorrow morning. The 7,300 participants should return to their respective residences to rest first."

After saying that, he turned his gaze to Jiang Yao and said gently, "Jiang Yao, please stay here for now."

None of the geniuses felt there was anything wrong with Venerable Tianhe leaving Jiang Yao behind alone. After all, this was the first time in history that a prodigy had passed all seven Trial Tower. They wouldn't be surprised if Venerable Tianhe immediately accepted him as a disciple.

Lingcang Marquis led the geniuses of the Xuanshang Universe Country towards the Xuanshang Building, giving Jiang Yao a reassuring look before leaving.

Having recovered from the shock, Sajin Fire Dragon looked at Jiang Yao, raised an eyebrow, and gestured to Sima Yan with his eyes, saying, "See you tomorrow, don't let this slip by unexpectedly."

Daiqin, Ninan, and several other people Jiang Yao before the trial elimination rounds greeted him amicably, without saying anything like, "When we get to the Virtual Universe Company, we won't give up and will continue to chase after you."

After all, when the gap in strength becomes too large, it's hard to say those words of self-motivation all at once.

Both Fito and Sima Yan looked at Jiang Yao with extremely complicated expressions. Before the competition, both of them believed that they would definitely be the first in this year's Genius Tournament and be able to enter the Primal Secret Realm.

Fito had even been hiding a lot of his strength, but in the trial elimination rounds, he and Sima Yan were only the protagonists for a short time. They were like two bright stars in the night sky, vying to see who was brighter, but suddenly they found that, without realizing it, dawn had broken and the sun had risen.

It's like a game-changer; the gap is so large that there's no room for even a thought of defiance.

Venerable Tianhe looked at Jiang Yao, suppressed his emotions, and said gently, "Do you know what kind of law attack you used to kill the Zerg Mother Emperor on the seventh floor?"

Jiang Yao had no intention of hiding it, but he still feigned hesitation. "... Is it the Path of the Beast God?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Venerable Tianhe's eyes. To be honest, even most of the 1008 Immortal God couldn't see through Jiang Yao's final Fusion Law attack, which was also related to the fact that the Fire-Space Fusion Law was quite weak.

But then he thought that Jiang Yao's teacher Marquis Huanqiong, was a powerful Marquis-level who had fought his way up in the Outer-Region Battlefield and was also known as Immortal Expert who was expected to become King-level. It was normal that he had come into contact with the Path of the Beast God and even talked about the Path of the Beast God with his disciples.

"That's right, you are using the Path of the Beast God. This path is the Fire-Space Fusion Law! It is the great path to becoming a peak expert." Venerable Tianhe couldn't help but sigh, his tone slightly complicated.

He was once a peerless genius who entered the Primal Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company through the Peak Warrior Tournament. However, even after becoming Venerable, neither the company nor the clan bestowed upon him a Beast God Inheritance Token, since that was a treasure far more precious than Heavy Treasure.

Although he also tried to cultivate some of the secret manuals and unique techniques created by powerful figures in the Hong Alliance who followed the path of the Path of the Beast God, he was unable to receive the Beast God Inheritance from the Ancestral God Sect, and his own talent in this area was also limited, so his achievements were not high.

He even suspected that if Jiang Yao were to become King-level Immortal in the future, his clan might very well bestow upon him a Beast God Inheritance Token.

Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable.

Suppressing the trace of jealousy and resentment in his heart, Venerable Tianhe continued to ask gently, "Have you ever seen Beast God Statue? Some pictures engraved with a powerful life form, or other treasures containing some kind of oppressive aura?"

For a low-level genius like Jiang Yao, Law Comprehension is not yet high enough, the first step in cultivating Fusion Law is generally to comprehend the corresponding Beast God Intent.

The most likely way to grasp the Beast God Intent is through Beast God Statue. These are usually carved by powerful individuals who cultivate the Path of the Beast God. Each Beast God Statue is precious, but over the years, a considerable number have been spread throughout the universe. Of course, most Beast God Statue are low-level statues.

It is said that there is an extremely rare Beast God Statue that not only contains awe-inspiring power but also has a distinct divine charm. Even those who are not talented enough in the way of the Path of the Beast God can quickly comprehend the Beast God Intent. However, Venerable Tianhe has only heard of such a Beast God Statue and has never seen one.

Jiang Yao nodded. "I have indeed seen similar images of Beast God that exude an aura of power."

He wasn't exactly lying; Bizhang, he really did see him every day, and not just see him, he could even transform into him.

Isn't this much more direct than some Beast God Statue?

Venerable Tianhe raised an eyebrow. As expected, Jiang Yao was indeed an unparalleled genius with exceptional talent in the Path of the Beast God.

There are quite a few Beast God Statue among Human Race and even the Hong Alliance. For example, the Golden Horned Race, a subordinate race of humans, has a giant Beast God Statue with extremely strong pressure. Hundreds of millions of geniuses have been studying it day and night, but very few have been able to comprehend even a trace of the Beast God Intent.

"Your teacher is quite lucky to have obtained a Beast God Statue," Venerable Tianhe remarked. However, in the Outer-Region Battlefield, obtaining any kind of treasure is normal, and Beast God Statue are not uncommon.

Having gained a preliminary understanding of the situation, Venerable Tianhe nodded to himself. Once they arrived in Chaos City, the great Chaos City Lord would naturally be able to uncover all of Jiang Yao's secrets.

"Remember, the arena battles are broadcast live to the entire universe." Venerable Tianhe looked at Jiang Yao seriously. "If you don't want the Alien Race to go crazy and try to assassinate you, you'd better not use any attacks containing the Path of the Beast God in the arena battles. I'm sure you're already on the assassination list of the Alien Race's infiltrated organization, and you're definitely ranked very high."

Jiang Yao's heart skipped a beat. Although he was prepared, he was still somewhat alarmed to hear such a warning from a Universe Venerable.

"But don't worry, the Xuanshang Universe Lord has already made arrangements, and my Virtual Universe Company has sent people to pick you up. They will arrive soon. As long as you don't leave the vicinity of the capital star of the Kasolo Empire in Xuanshang Universe Country, your safety will not be a problem."

The Kasolo Empire, Lanhui Planet.

Jiang Yao entered the palace unimpeded amidst the excited and admiring gazes of the palace guards.

His record-breaking points in the trial elimination rounds, ranking first among the millions of geniuses in the 1008 Universe Country, and the battle videos and news have spread throughout the Human Race's territory, and even reached the ears of Alien Race.

Not only did the Kasolo Empire suddenly become famous throughout the entire Xuanshang Universe Country, but the Lingtong Race also came into the view of countless people in the Human Race.

He went from being an ordinary human with a seventh-class bloodline to becoming the focus of discussion and attention for countless people.

Within the Kasolo Empire, the Lingtong Race has regained the prestige of the Sacred Land, even surpassing it to a higher level, completely overshadowing the other five Sacred Land.

Even Yinhu Island released the Lingtong Race slaves that had not yet been sold. Many powerful individuals and forces that had already purchased Lingtong Race slaves also released them free of charge to express their goodwill towards Jiang Yao and the Lingtong Race.

Jiang Yao has surpassed the fallen ancestor Jiuyuan within the Lingtong Race, becoming the new spiritual totem of the Lingtong Race.

Outside the kingdom, he became an idol for countless people in the Kasolo Empire and the Xuanshang Universe Country.
