Jialong Tree, Jiang Yao's consciousness emerged from the Xu Yuan Space, his brows furrowing slightly. He had just finished comprehending the Sixth Diagram of the Universe Chaos Stele, but was still completely clueless.

"It seems that what <The Youyuan True Interpretation> says is correct. The vast majority of cultivators of the Cosmic School can comprehend the Sixth Diagram by forging their own Super Divine Weapon and using the artistic conception of the Super Divine Weapon as a guide."

"As expected of the most difficult of the 52 Chaos Tablets, each step becomes increasingly difficult."

King Guanglong also awoke from his meditation and exclaimed in amazement, "No wonder the Yongwu Race regards the Jialong Tree as their clan's most treasured possession. Near this Jialong Tree, I feel that my perception of the fundamental Origin Law of Time and Origin Law of Space has become clearer, and I can even perceive the other six lower-level laws. I can even feel that if I were to fight someone, my divine power would recover many times faster."

The laws that King Guanglong cultivated were earth, space, light, and time. Before achieving immortality, he had already gained recognition for the Law of Light.

Jiang Yao was not Immortal God, so he didn't feel it deeply, but he could still realize how heaven-defying the effect was.

"This must be the effect of the Blood Abyss Power. Being by this Jialong Tree is equivalent to constantly consuming Blood Essence Fruit and Blood Abyss Fruit. With this Jialong Tree, no matter how difficult the situation becomes, the Yongwu Race can always rise again."

King Guanglong laughed and said, "This is my first time cultivating under this Jialong Tree. Many Immortal God below the King-level from the five major powers can come here to cultivate. After all, for immortals above the King-level, the power of Blood Essence has very little effect."

Jiang Yao nodded thoughtfully. The fact that the Yongwu Race was able to preserve the Jialong Tree after nearly being wiped out must be because they decisively shared the Jialong Tree as a resource with humans, which is why they were able to join the Hong Alliance. Otherwise, humans, as one of the Four Peak Races, wouldn't accept just any Tom, Dick, or Harry as their allies.

The reason why they could only swallow their anger and suffer in the face of the severe punishment from the Virtual Universe Company is probably this: the Virtual Universe Company doesn't need to deal with the Yongwu Race themselves; as long as they are driven out of the Hong Alliance, the remaining Yongwu Race who possess the Jialong Tree will probably be wiped out.

This is probably why the Virtual Universe Company assigned this punitive action to him as a practice mission to earn points. Regardless of how well he performs or whether he messes it up, the Yongwu Race will not dare to make any moves or harm human interests.

Suddenly King Guanglong's expression changed drastically, and Jiang Yao also changed. The two of them looked into the distance.

"Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass?!"

Jiang Yao and King Guanglong could both send a wisp of their consciousness into the Virtual Universe Network at any time, so they naturally received the distress calls from King Qianxie, King Yuhe, and Xide immediately.

The two vanished instantly, Teleportation towards the edge of the Yuanhua Secret Realm.

After hundreds of Teleportation, Jiang Yao and King Guanglong appeared in the void.

Those hundreds of massive interstellar warships had completely vanished, leaving only a huge black planet standing in the void.

A black planet with a diameter of nearly one million kilometers.

"Is it really the Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass? I've seen it in the Tenth Outer-Region Battlefield." King Guanglong's face was ashen. "King Qianxie and the others have already been swallowed into the Crimson Thunder God Prison. The space there is automatically sealed off, making it impossible to Teleportation in."

Jiang Yao looked at the massive black planet. The 500 Crimson Thunder Grass, a ninth-level World Lord, which was in the World Ring, seemed to sense something and suddenly tensed up. Jiang Yao tried his best to soothe the Crimson Thunder Grass's fear.

The Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass seemed to sense something as well.

A chaotic, frenzied consciousness swept over Jiang Yao and King Guanglong. Then, Jiang Yao felt the space-time in front of him shift, and when he came to his senses, he found himself in a crimson world.

King Guanglong stared dumbfounded at the figure that had suddenly disappeared beside him.

What to do now? He wouldn't be afraid of other Peak King, but the Crimson Thunder Grass's divine body alone is over a million kilometers in size. Even if he burned all his divine power, he still couldn't do anything to it!

On the core continent of the Yuanhua Secret Realm, a metallic-skinned boy with blood-red eyes gazed at the sky. He was the puppet body of the Yongwu Race Venerable, who was currently the only one presiding over the Yuanhua Secret Realm.

The boy did not immediately attempt to rescue the Virtual Universe Company's Special Envoy; instead, he gazed intently at the horizon.

His eyes seemed to be able to traverse hundreds of light-years of space, to pass through the divine body of the Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass, and to see the terrifying scene within the Crimson Thunder God Prison.

Within the vast crimson space, countless Crimson Thunder roamed, transforming this place into a lightning inferno.

A massive bolt of lightning struck at almost the speed of light. Jiang Yao instinctively folded the Shiwu Wings, blocking ninety percent of the immense lightning. The remaining ten percent rushed into his body, directly annihilating the world within which the Holy Star Stone had been integrated. Then, Jiang Yao activated the "Zhenhuang Seal" within all his cells, causing his entire body to explode and recombine, completely absorbing the last bit of power.

In addition to the physical impact, a powerful Void Divine Power accompanied the Crimson Thunder, rushing towards Jiang Yao's Life Core.

However, he simply couldn't get past the "Fuyuan Realm" that enveloped his Life Core. This soul-type Heavy Treasure bestowed by the Chaos City Lord made Jiang Yao almost fearless of any soul-type attack.

Jiang Yao was secretly alarmed. A single bolt of lightning could destroy the divine body of an ordinary Immortal God, and even Marquis Immortal would probably not be able to withstand it for long.

Immediately following, two more bolts of lightning struck, all traveling at the speed of light, so that even the Shiwu Wings could not dodge them.

"Good heavens, a single bolt of lightning consumes a Holy Star Stone. This can't go on."

"Your Highness!"

A golden light flashed, blocking all the lightning bolts that were hurtling towards Jiang Yao.

The golden light transformed into a protective shield that enveloped Jiang Yao. The shield was filled with a powerful divine force that flowed continuously, resisting the bombardment of the thunder!

Two streaks of Flowing Light flew over from the distant thunderstorm.

"King Qianxie! King Yuhe!"

The two Army Lord looked unwell, but they seemed unharmed, emerging unscathed from the thunder's bombardment.

Jiang Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help feeling puzzled. It was said that the Crimson Thunder God Prison was extremely terrifying, and even King-level Immortal could hardly survive there. However, it seemed that the power of this thunder was practically useless against him, let alone King-level Immortal.

"I have transferred your Guard Army and warships to the World Ring, and they suffered no losses whatsoever," King Yuhe said.

King Qianxie seemed to see Jiang Yao's doubts. He looked at the defensive light shield that was as solid as a rock under the bombardment of endless lightning, but his face showed no relief. Instead, he looked solemn.

"Don't underestimate this Crimson Thunder God Prison. For some reason, this Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass seems to be in a state of mental confusion and has fallen into madness, so it has failed to condense the Crimson Thunder Dominator."

"Crimson Thunder Dominator?"

King Yuhe also said solemnly, "Many Alien Race also call him the Crimson Thunder God King. Once the Crimson Thunder Dominator is formed, he is the embodiment of the Law of Lightning."

"It can unify all the lightning in the Divine Prison. In this Crimson Thunder God Prison, it can unleash the Peak King-level. Moreover, all the divine power that others lose in the Crimson Thunder God Prison will become the power of the Divine Prison. The ebb and flow is extremely terrifying. Not to mention the two of us, even if King Guanglong were trapped in this Crimson Thunder God Prison, he would have almost no way to survive."

"It is said that the Crimson Thunder God Prison of the Thousand-Vine Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass Thousand-Vine Crimson Thunder Grass even among the Shixing Race. No one outside the Shixing Race has ever been able to cultivate the Thousand-Vine Crimson Thunder Grass, let alone make it immortal."

"The 'Divine Crimson Thunder God Prison Divine Prison' refers to the divine might as a prison, and the 'god' is the Crimson Thunder God King."

"The Nine Ultimate God Kingdom of the Machine Race was created by imitating this Crimson Thunder God Prison."

"Currently, the lightning within the entire Crimson Thunder God Prison is uncoordinated. These endless bolts of lightning appear powerful, but in reality, they operate independently, relying entirely on instinct for attacks, posing virtually no threat to King-level experts."

King Qianxie smiled bitterly, "Although it poses no threat to our lives, it is difficult for us to leave the Crimson Thunder God Prison. The space here is self-contained, bounded yet limitless. Teleportation is useless here. If we dare to Teleportation back to our God Kingdom, this endless Crimson Thunder will invade our God Kingdom along with the spatial fluctuations, turning our God Kingdom into a part of the Crimson Thunder God Prison. This is the terror of the Crimson Thunder God Prison."

King Yuhe anxiously, "But no one knows what happened to the Immortal Crimson Thunder Grass. If it returns to normal in the next moment and can condense the Crimson Thunder Dominator, we will be in danger."

Seeing the expectant looks in the eyes of the two Army Lords, Jiang Yao knew that they were both hoping that he could "summon" Youyuan Venerable Jiang Yao resolve the crisis.

However, Youyuan Venerable, being Universe Overlord, was naturally not someone that two King-level Immortal could command, so he dared not speak openly.

Jiang Yao also planned to crush the command talisman and summon the Youyuan Venerable to descend.

Although this was somewhat humiliating, the Chaos City Lord for Youyuan Venerable to protect Jiang Yao was not to act as Jiang Yao's babysitter, but to take action in the most critical moment, or even to deal with assassination attempts by Alien Race. Last time, when Undying Venerable arrived first, Youyuan Venerable personally stepped forward to force him to retreat.

However, the Crimson Thunder God Prison is also considered the most dangerous place.

The voice of Bajie from Taihuan Token suddenly rang in Jiang Yao's mind. "Try sending Chiling!"

Chiling?

"The Chiling is the Thunder Tribulation Ancestral Court. This Crimson Thunder Grass has gone mad and its control over the Crimson Thunder God Prison has greatly decreased. Perhaps it will be useful," Bajie said leisurely.

Jiang Yao thought for a moment, then summoned the "Xu Yuan Space" in his mind.

The "gateway" of the Xu Yuan Space opened, and the consciousness of Chiling clone, separated by infinite light-years, stepped out from it.

"This Crimson Thunder God Prison is indeed powerful and profound." Under the cover of the Xu Yuan Might, the Chiling Split Soul probed out its consciousness and felt the endless lightning that had been blocked by King Qianxie, its expression excited.

Jiang Yao turned to King Qianxie and said, "Perhaps I can give it a try. Army Lord, please release the light shield."

King Qianxie and King Yuhe looked at Jiang Yao in astonishment.

"You have a way?" King Yuhe was about to say that if the Crimson Thunder God Prison were so easy to escape, how could it have made so many King-level Immortal in the Tenth Outer-Region Battlefield tremble with fear?

But then he remembered that Jiang Yao was the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord, possessing those incredibly powerful and Extreme Point Silver Wings, and he couldn't understand why Chaos City Lord could unleash the combat power of a high-ranking Marquis-level. Who knew what treasure the Chaos City Lord had bestowed upon this disciple?

"Your Highness, be careful." King Qianxie gave Jiang Yao a deep look, feeling curious to see what other skills this person, who could be considered the strongest genius in human history, possessed.

The protective barrier vanished instantly, and endless lightning struck the divine bodies of King Qianxie and King Yuhe. However, the King-level Immortal were not so easily injured.

But to the astonishment of the two Army Lords, Jiang Yao was also completely unharmed.

To be precise, all the Crimson Thunder was circling around Jiang Yao, and some of it even coiled around his body, leaping merrily, like a child meeting its loving mother.

Under the astonished gazes of the two Army Lords, Jiang Yao extended a finger, and then countless scarlet lightning bolts converged and intertwined, tearing through the void like dragons and snakes, illuminating the crimson sky!

As if a Thor had been born, the entire Divine Prison World trembled with wave after wave, seemingly echoing the descent of the Thunder Lord!
