Chaos City Lord's Speculation
In the Virtual Universe, at the highest point of Thunder Island, lies the palace where the Chaos City Lord resides.
The main hall was filled with chaotic energy.
"You cannot fuse with the Xueluo Crystal?" The Chaos City Lord's voice came from the air currents.
"Yes," Jiang Yao said respectfully, "I have tried many times, and each time I am repelled by a strange power that arises inexplicably within my body. It is as if the two powers are completely incompatible, like fire and water, and neither can be fused together."
A golden-robed figure emerged from the air currents. The Chaos City Lord walked over and looked at Jiang Yao. His eyes, which had been as calm as the endless starry sky, were now filled with turbulent waves. "As expected... it really did come to this..."
Upon seeing Bizhang manifested by Jiang Yao, the Chaos City Lord had a guess, but he was still not sure. That's why he asked Jiang Yao to go to the Xueluo World to collect Xueluo Crystal to try and see if he could fuse with them.
But now, through Jiang Yao's description, the Chaos City Lord was certain of his previous guess.
"The Beast God Power..."
Xueluo Crystal is essentially formed from the blood of the Gold Beast God, and the strange power it contains is the essence energy of the Beast God's blood.
Jiang Yao's body has an instinctive and extremely strong aversion to the Xueluo Power, so there is only one possibility.
The Bizhang that his disciple possessed was a kind of heaven-defying life form with an essence similar to that of the Beast God.
Only the Beast God Power of the same essence would so repel the Beast God Power.
The Chaos City Lord asked, "Is your body still growing?"
Jiang Yao nodded and said, "This body of mine has been growing for the past few hundred years, and my Beast God Intent has reached approximately the 16th level of the Heavenly Bridge."
His "Nine Transformations of the Desolate God" had already been revealed, and in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord, it became that he had possessed the Special Lifeform of Bizhang. His usual body was just a human body transformed from Bizhang, which was one of the reasons why he did not separate Bizhang into a clone.
Now that he had already gone through the open, he naturally had nothing to hide from the Chaos City Lord.
"Hmm." The Chaos City Lord said with satisfaction, "It should remain the same from now on; do not reveal your true form unless absolutely necessary."
If the Chaos City Lord had previously doubted how far Jiang Yao's possessed Special Lifeform could grow, after all, the Beast God was an embodiment of the Fusion Law from birth, a being at the level of Universe Master.
The Chaos City Lord had never heard of this Special Lifeform whose Beast God Intent was constantly growing. Since it was going to grow, the final, complete form was unknown.
Now he is basically certain of Jiang Yao's future potential.
Amidst his surprise and excitement, the Chaos City Lord also wondered, "Could such a heaven-defying life form have been born in the Primal Universe? Could it be a life form like 'Yujin'?"
He had even discussed this issue with Giant Axe. He had only told Giant Axe Founder of Jiang Yao's secret, so far. Giant Axe had been wandering in the Universe Ocean for a long time and knew about some extremely powerful life forms that had been conceived in the Primal Universe in past reincarnations.
For example, five cycles ago, the Primal Universe gave birth to a life form called "Yujin," a darling of time and space. When it grew to its complete form, it became an extremely powerful Universe Venerable, only a hair's breadth away from becoming the Universe Master.
Of course, this line is also a huge hurdle.
The universe operates according to mysterious rules. Even Time Venerable like his seventh disciple, Youyuan Venerable, who is extremely talented in the Path of Time and Space, has been stuck at the final step of the laws of space for countless years, unable to fully comprehend them and become the Universe Master.
It's not that the laws of space are more difficult than the Law of Time, but rather that, just as the difficulty of comprehending the laws increases thousands of times after a realm lord becomes Immortal God.
After becoming Universe Venerable, the difficulty of comprehending another higher law will not increase significantly. However, some mysterious rule of the universe will prevent the Space Venerable or Time Venerable from fully comprehending another higher law, causing them to be stuck at a certain bottleneck for countless eras.
The "Yujin" was born with Mastery of Time and Space, but it still lingered at the threshold of Universe Master for a long time. If it comprehends the law of space, the ultimate fusion of the supreme and profound Law of Time will become extremely difficult, and vice versa.
Similar to "Yujin," there were other life forms that defied the heavens in previous reincarnations. These life forms were all unique. Although they defied the heavens, they were actually all alone and had little impact on the Primal Universe or even the overall structure of the Universe Ocean.
However, they all share the commonality that their complete forms are slightly inferior to the Universe Master, requiring countless years to surpass, which is already far more extraordinary than that of other life forms.
"Bizhang" should also be such a life form. The main reason is that life forms that are born with the ability to control the Fusion Law are extremely rare, except for those born as beast Beast God.
Considering that Bizhang's talent is the Fusion Law, he guessed that Jiang Yao, after reaching his complete form, should be Universe Overlord, and possibly even Top Universe Overlord.
Moreover, if one can cross the threshold of Universe Master, one will definitely become a pillar of the Human Race, far surpassing ordinary Universe Master.
"God bless humanity!" The Chaos City Lord sighed inwardly. Chiling, the Luoxiao Race genius who had been absorbed into the Giant Axe Coliseum over the past few hundred years, had also shown great potential and had even obtained the Beast God Inheritance of the Suolun Master. Although his fate was still not as good as Jiang Yao's, his future was equally limitless.
"Are you preparing to break through to the Domain Lord level?" The Chaos City Lord asked with a lowered gaze and a smile.
Jiang Yao respectfully replied, "Indeed, I'm preparing to break through. Universe-level cultivation missions no longer have much effect on my improvement. Moreover, as you know, teacher, I obtained the Holy Star Stone in the Nine Star Sea. If I advance to the Domain Lord Ninth Stage, I can fuse with the Holy Stone and possess the basic power of a Realm Lord, which will greatly enhance my combat strength."
Jiang Yao could have broken through to the Domain Lord long ago, but after breaking Domain Lord, he would have to go out into the world. Although he would definitely receive the full protection of the Virtual Universe Company, the danger would definitely increase. He needed to make thorough preparations and use up all the life-saving abilities he could.
The Chaos City Lord nodded, then suddenly smiled and said, "Don't be influenced by those people. You and that Chiling from the Giant Axe Coliseum are both precious geniuses of humanity. Although he has great talent and opportunities, he is still far inferior to you. He is not your opponent, and you shouldn't make him your target. Your only opponent is yourself."
Jiang Yao wondered to himself what the Chaos City Lord would do if he knew that Chiling was actually his clone.
The Chaos City Lord knew that unparalleled geniuses who could dominate an era were extremely confident, even arrogant. Such a coincidence of encountering an era was extremely rare, but if not handled properly, the consequences could be severe.
It's not that two geniuses will kill each other, but rather that it will affect their egocentric and indomitable mindset.
Just like other geniuses born in the same era as prodigies like Kedi and Venerable Shihuo, some will persevere and take them as their goal, constantly moving forward. However, many geniuses will lose their confidence and fail to develop as expected because they are always overshadowed by them, and even become mediocre.
When a peerless genius loses the ambition to be number one, it will also hinder their future development.
Although he could tell that Jiang Yao was in a high mood, he still wanted to give him a heads-up.
Moreover, the Chaos City Lord truly did not believe that Chiling could compare to Jiang Yao. Not perishing midway was a sure thing for becoming a Universe Overlord, and obtaining the inheritance of the Universe Master were two different things.
"After you break through to the Domain Lord, remember to come to the Chaos Ruins, and I will bestow upon you a treasure."
The Chaos City Lord's eyes held a mixture of expectation and worry. He was more afraid than anyone else that Jiang Yao would repeat the mistakes of Kedi. However, true powerhouses cannot be nurtured in a greenhouse. Fortunately, the Domain Lord- level deployments and missions were all within Human Territory, so the danger was not that high.
Jiang Yao said gratefully, "Thank you, Teacher."
He would accept anything that could enhance his ability to survive.
In the Primal Secret Realm of the Wuchen Continent, the castle whose gates had been closed for decades has finally opened.
As soon as Jiang Yao left the castle, he saw mountains of cargo boxes.
The main purpose of the cultivation missions he has taken on over the past few hundred years has been to amass wealth. In addition, with the Holy Star Stone he obtained in the Nine Star Sea, all the treasures he acquired in the cultivation mission worlds were either cashed out to the Virtual Universe Company or auctioned off, accumulating a fortune of more than 20 million points and 5 million Hunyuan Unit.
That basically emptied the entire store.
He now has only 170,000 points left in his account.
Many of these were treasures for the Lingtong Race. The rise of a race requires a massive amount of resources, but although this portion was large in quantity, its value was actually not high. The truly valuable items were the treasures he bought for himself.
Each one is worth millions or even tens of millions of points.
Firstly, it was for the purpose of cultivating the "Zhenhuang Sacred Body". With the help of the Sacred Altar Baptism in the Nine Star Sea, he cultivated the Zhenhuang Sacred Body to the third level, and his Body Amplitude reached 8 times. Many Peak King-level powerhouses only have this level of Divine Body Amplitude.
The fourth level is more difficult than the third level and requires more resources. Jiang Yao also prepared the cultivation resources in advance for his external release.
The second is the cultivation of the "Zhenhuang Seal.
By integrating the Zhenhuang Seal deep into every cell of the body, one can cultivate an Undying Body that is even more profound than the normal Marquis Immortal, which can also be called the 'Zhenhuang Undying Body'.
As long as the Origin Law of Fire exists, you are almost impossible to kill unless the enemy can completely erase the 'Zhenhuang Seal' deep within every cell of your body. However, the 'Zhenhuang Seal' is much more resilient than ordinary Spiritual Imprint and can continuously draw power from the Origin Law of Fire.
His teacher, Kasolo, was poisoned by the Shihai Worm. Even other Marquis Immortal would have suffered the collapse of their divine bodies. It was only by continuously drawing power from the Origin Law of Fire through the Zhenhuang Seal within each cell that he was able to resist the poison.
Normally, only Immortal God can cultivate the Zhenhuang Seal, but Jiang Yao, relying on his body's genes which have reached 60 times the normal level, and the strange power within his body that he calls "Beast God Power," has actually managed to enter the basics.
It was during the fusion with the Xueluo Crystal that he discovered that his body contained a Xueluo Power very similar to, yet mutually repelling, the Xueluo Power.
The cultivation of the Zhenhuang Seal also requires many treasures containing the Law of Fire.
Finally, there are the consumables prepared for the Innate Secret Technique "Fire Fusion". If he does not transform into Bizhang, he will consume a treasure containing the Origin Law of Fire every time he uses "Fire Fusion".
"Fire Fusion" is one of his trump cards for survival, so he naturally needs to be well-prepared.
"Your Highness." Xide, the leader of the Guard Army, bowed respectfully with his guards and servants.
Jiang Yao nodded, then looked at King Yichen with some surprise. "Why have you come, my lord?"
King Yichen narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Yao, extremely surprised.
Jiang Yao has actually advanced to the Domain Lord level.
Moreover, there was a faint, dreamlike feeling emanating from her, as if she were right in front of him, yet it felt as if they were separated by countless times and spaces.
"Venerable Tianhe asked me to check on you. You've already advanced to the Domain Lord level... Are you preparing to be released to the outside world?"
Jiang Yao smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Venerable. However, before I go out to serve, I need to return to Chaos City and try to cross the Heavenly Bridge."
