World Lord Level Original Heavenly Bridge and a Forged Identity
In the Initial Universe, in Chaos City, inside a vast mansion.
"Haha, Jiang Yao, you quietly broke through the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain. You have no idea King Tongnan's expression was like back then. Haha, he almost opened his eyes wide!" King Zhenyan took a swig from a crimson bottle of wine and said to Jiang Yao with a grin.
King Tongnan somewhat helpless, his eyes still tightly closed, and he revealed a self-deprecating expression as he said, "Jiang Yao, because of you, I'm even a little embarrassed to give lectures now. A Realm Lord's comprehension of the Space-Time Law has caught up with or even surpassed that of many grandmasters from various Cosmic School. How can we bear this?"
Although Jiang Yao had passed the 20th level of the Heavenly Bridge more than 500 years ago, many powerful figures who witnessed it at the time knew that in addition to his powerful will comparable to that of Universe Venerable and his luck, Jiang Yao's understanding of the Space-Time Law was still quite far from that of the 20th level.
The gap between the 19th and 20th floors, even if it's just a thin line, is an insurmountable chasm. Countless powerful individuals have been stuck at this chasm for countless epochs.
Not to mention that the difficulty of the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain is definitely not just about Law Comprehension of the 20th floor of the Heavenly Bridge; one must also reach the top level in terms of ultimate skills and combat awareness.
Unexpectedly, only five hundred years later, Jiang Yao relied on the Space-Time Law to cross the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain no one had been able to cross in countless eras, becoming the strongest genius in humankind at present. His fame spread throughout the entire Human Territory and the Hong Alliance. His popularity was so great that it even overshadowed Chiling, another peerless talent from the Giant Axe Coliseum who had disappeared without a trace after entering the Giant Axe Universe.
Therefore, King Zhenyan gathered several powerful figures who had maintained good relations with Jiang Yao over the past few hundred years to come to his residence to offer their congratulations.
Of course, while ostensibly offering congratulations, he was actually just there to freeload off Jiang Yao.
Although Jiang Yao had basically spent Heavy Treasure Points after exchanging for the Thousand-God Phantom Armor Bead and the Lingguang Mirror, he still had at least trillions of Hunyuan Unit in other wealth, so he lived a fairly luxurious life during his secluded cultivation in Chaos City.
As a top-tier, Invincible King-level, King Zhenyan's wealth is definitely no less than Jiang Yao's. However, as the strongest member of the Kahuns Race, he has a clan to take care of, so he would definitely not be willing to buy wines worth hundreds of billions of Hunyuan Unit, such as "Purple Source Fire Wine," "Five-Colored Star," and "Dragon Han Blood Wine."
Although Jiang Yao also had Lingtong Race to take care of, the Lingtong Race was far inferior to powerful Kahuns Race. Even a tiny bit of his knowledge was enough for the Lingtong Race to digest for a long time. Jiang Yao did not intend to force the growth of the Lingtong Race, nor did he want to raise a group of spoiled brats.
Jiang Yao was also happy to get closer to King Zhenyan. Putting aside the fact that he was the future Galaxy Overlord's teacher, Jiang Yao also admired King Zhenyan's temperament and personality.
King Jingluo, standing to the side, chuckled, "Jiang Yao, many of the recent geniuses who have entered Chaos City, as well as many members of the Four Great Secret Realms who are cultivating in Chaos City, all hope that you can give public lectures."
Jiang Yao was somewhat amused and exasperated. "I'm not King-level Immortal. In fact, I'm still Primal Secret Region Member. What kind of lectures would I give? Besides, there aren't many geniuses who chose the Universe Chaos Stele."
"That's not quite right. Although the number of geniuses who choose to study the Universe Chaos Stele is the fewest among the 52 Chaos Tablets, the number of people who listen to the lectures of the masters of the Cosmic School is quite large." King Tongnan said confidently with a smile, "Before the 16th floor of the Heavenly Bridge, when studying the Universe Chaos Stele, one can choose to focus on one superior law. However, starting from the fifth diagram, one must comprehend a kind of spacetime conception in order to continue. Therefore, the masters of the Cosmic School have relatively profound insights and understandings of the two Higher Origin Law of spacetime."
"Many geniuses who comprehend the Nine Universes Chaos Stele, the Zhouji Chaos Stele, and even other paths involving the Law Essence come to listen to the lectures of our Cosmic School of masters."
"I always have more students attending my lectures than Zhen Yan," said King Tongnan, pointing at King Zhenyan, who was engrossed in drinking.
King Zhenyan ignored King Tongnan's teasing and instead laughed, "Hehe, our Nine Universe Lineage isn't as small as your Cosmic School sects. But Jiang Yao, your level of Law Comprehension is more than enough to establish your own sect. Most of the sect leaders who live in seclusion in Chaos City only have the 19th level of the Heavenly Bridge in Law Comprehension, and very few can reach the 20th level."
King Jingluo sighed, "Jiang Yao, it would be interesting if you really started your own sect and started lecturing. The members of the Four Great Secret Realms in your year are still at the cosmic level. They can only reach the sixth level of the Heavenly Bridge at most. Most of them are not even qualified to join a sect and listen to the sect leaders' lectures."
King Jingluo still remembered when he was first ordered by Youyuan Venerable to be Jiang Yao's teacher stationed at Yuxiang Mountain, teaching him the <Youyuan True Interpretation>. Now, this disciple's Law Comprehension has even surpassed his own, giving him a dreamlike feeling.
Jiang Yao shook his head slightly. For the past few hundred years, he had spent most of his time in the inner world of the Liuyu Crystal, using his Space-Time Control comparable to that of the Universe Master to improve his Space-Time Law and artistic conception, while cultivating the "Zhenhuang Sacred Body". He had no time to establish a sect and give lectures, which is why he was able to raise his Space-Time Annihilation Intent to the level of the 20th floor of the Heavenly Bridge in a short period of time.
However, it takes much longer to advance from this point. The 21st level represents the level of Law Comprehension of Universe Venerable. This level has blocked countless King-level powerhouses. Even if they have Supreme Treasure and powerful inheritances such as the Liuyu Crystal, Zhenhuang, and Years, it is difficult to predict how long it will take to cross this step.
He has mastered all the supreme mysteries of the laws of Law of Time and space, but to truly comprehend the higher laws, he still needs to successfully fuse these mysteries. The laws governing the universe will block this fusion process; otherwise, Youyuan Venerable would not have been stuck at the final hurdle of fusing the three mysteries of the laws of space, unable to become the Universe Master.
In addition to reaching the limit of the Universe Venerable in his comprehension of the Space-Time Law, he also cultivated the "Zhenhuang Sacred Body" to the fourth level with the investment of a large amount of resources, giving him Body Amplitude of 16 times that even many Peak Kings or even limit-level powerhouses could not match.
The key point is that this 16-fold Body Amplitude is an undiminished amplitude, and the amplitude effect will not be weakened by the increase in basic strength.
Just as Jiang Yao was chatting with several powerful King-level who were on good terms with him, the gate of the mansion suddenly opened, and a young man from the Lingtong Race with fiery red hair walked in. He was not surprised when he saw the sect leaders, and bowed respectfully without being humble or arrogant.
"Teacher, King Zhenyan, King Tongnan..."
King Zhenyan's expression shifted, as if he had received some information. He exclaimed in surprise, "Qianhuo, you've returned from the Primordial Secret Realm? And you actually passed the fifth level of the Heavenly Bridge just now? Tsk tsk, Jiang Yao, your ability to teach disciples is no less than mine, haha. Very well, I won't delay your teaching any longer. I need to go back and give my lecture."
After saying this, King Zhenyan quickly took two bottles of "Dragon Han Blood Wine" and stuffed them into his arms under Jiang Yao's glare, then laughed and walked out the door.
After King Tongnan and King Jingluo left the residence, Jiang Yao's gaze fell on his only disciple, and he said with satisfaction, "Not bad. You were able to pass through the fifth level of the Heavenly Bridge in less than five hundred years. Your improvement speed is even faster than I expected."
Qianhuo's usually calm and resolute face showed an embarrassed expression, and he quickly said, "This disciple is still far from good enough. To enter the Primordial Secret Realm, I must at least pass through the sixth level of the Heavenly Bridge. I am truly sorry for all the resources you have given me, Master. You only spent 30 years to pass through the Heavenly Bridge."
Jiang Yao smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don't compare yourself to me."
He was actually quite satisfied with this disciple, but perhaps Jiang Yao's fame and aura put too much pressure on him.
In fact, if we only consider innate talent, Jiang Yao knows he is inferior to Qianhuo. It was only through the encounter with Taihuan Token and the <Xu Yuan Opening> and <Nine Transformations of the Desolate God> brought by Taihuan Token Envoy that he possessed the most outstanding comprehension and talent in the universe, which is something that can only be encountered by chance.
Compared to the top geniuses at Virtual Universe Company, Tianhuo's talent is definitely inferior. Not to mention compared to a peerless genius like Bolan, he is even somewhat inferior to geniuses like Fito and Sima Yan.
However, Qianhuo's will and resolute character are enough to make Jiang Yao think highly of him. In addition, with the Bloodline Divine Ability that Jiang Yao planted that could display the Beast God Intent, Qianhuo's potential is definitely worth looking forward to.
"You've already fused three Xueluo Crystal?"
"Yes, I've tried many times to fuse the fourth one, but I still can't get it to work. I don't know when I'll be able to become a Black Warrior," Qianhuo replied earnestly, sounding somewhat troubled.
Jiang Yao nodded in satisfaction and advised, "Don't force the fusion. Your current accumulation and willpower are not enough. The reason I called you back this time is because I will be in seclusion for a period of time and won't be coming out for a long time. So I will give you one more lesson before I go into seclusion."
He was actually going to the Outer-Region Battlefield, but since he had long been regarded as a thorn in the side by the Alien Race, he had to pretend and could not openly say that he was leaving the Initial Universe.
Jiang Yao was about to give a private lecture to his disciple when he suddenly froze, having received an email from the Chaos City Lord, asking him to go to Chaos Ruins.
The Inner Mansion of the Chaos City Lord's Mansion.
"Teacher." Jiang Yao saw the rather ferocious clone of the Chaos City Lord.
The Chaos City Lord laughed, "Are you going to the Outer-Region Battlefield?"
"Yes."
The Chaos City Lord's expression turned solemn. "There's something you might not know. According to the intelligence I've received, the Zerg are investigating all unfamiliar Immortal God from the Human Faction that have appeared on the Outer-Region Battlefield."
Jiang Yao was startled upon hearing this.
"The Alien Race have spies lurking within our Human Territory. We humans possess Virtual Universe, giving us a greater advantage in intelligence gathering than most Alien Race forces. Moreover, because the target this time is all Outer-Region Battlefield, the Zerg cannot maintain complete secrecy, which is why we have obtained relevant intelligence."
Jiang Yao pondered and said, "The Zerg are definitely targeting me. They know I possess the Inheritance Token of Yedier. The Monster Race even used it to set a trap to kill me. Now that I have passed through the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, as long as I become Immortal God, I will at least have combat power close to that of Invincible King-level being. They must think that I am going to compete for the inheritance of the Holy Lord Yedier of the Shixing Race."
The Chaos City Lord nodded and said, "Your Liuyu Crystal is no ordinary item. The Zerg tried to steal a chicken but lost their rice instead, so it's understandable that they won't be willing to accept it. I know you've prepared a disguise plan. You want to go to the Outer-Region Battlefield as Light-Time Fusion Law expert?"
Jiang Yao nodded. The Chaos City Lord must know the information about his exchange for the Thousand-God Phantom Armor Bead and the Beast God Weapon Lingguang Mirror, which is specially designed to Light-Time Fusion Law. Naturally, he could guess that Jiang Yao would go to the Outer-Region Battlefield as a powerful Path of the Beast God.
Not to mention that the Chaos City Lord knew the secret that he had "seized Special Lifeform that possessed the essence of the Fire-Space and Light-Time Beast God." Although he might not know the extent of his Path of the Beast God, he certainly knew that his Path of the Beast God was not much weaker than the Space-Time Law.
The Chaos City Lord said solemnly, "Since the Zerg have already taken action, your disguise plan is not secure enough. I have modified the information in the Virtual Universe Network and forged an identity for you."
"You forged an identity?" Jiang Yao was somewhat surprised.
"Although this identity is forged, it is a real identity." The Chaos City Lord laughed, "It is the Immortal God human who cultivated the laws of light and time. He happened to have ventured into the Third Battlefield outside the domain, and later obtained a kind of inheritance related to the path of the Light Beast God and left the Outer-Region Battlefield."
"He is a real Immortal God. I have secretly taken him to the Initial Universe to cultivate. He will not show himself when you venture into the Outer-Region Battlefield. You have exchanged for the Heavy Treasure 'Thousand-God Phantom Armor Bead', which can achieve perfect disguise. I will send you his information and experience through the Virtual Universe in a while."
"This person has been active in the Third Battlefield Frontier for many years, and even led a squad of Immortal God. He is very familiar with many of the Immortal God in the Human Faction of the Third Battlefield. If you impersonate him, you can avoid the Zerg's investigation to the greatest extent possible, or at least reduce their suspicion of you."
Jiang Yao said happily, "Thank you, teacher!"
The Chaos City Lord's arrangements were indeed quite meticulous and thoughtful, and his care for Jiang Yao was evident. How could Jiang Yao not feel grateful?
"However, will my combat prowess be commensurate with this identity?" Jiang Yao immediately had some concerns.
The Chaos City Lord shook his head and smiled, "So the identity I've arranged for you is that of someone who had a fortuitous encounter on the Third Battlefield. Many people know that he obtained an unknown Beast God Inheritance. His original strength was naturally not at the King Level, but with this inheritance, that might change. However, you'll need to handle the situation carefully. There are no perfect plans in the universe."
"Go ahead." The Chaos City Lord smiled and instructed Jiang Yao, "In the message I sent you through the Virtual Universe, besides information about this identity, there was also some information about the Third Battlefield Beyond the Realm, especially the Xuehuan Continent. Remember, don't be reckless just because you have the Liuyu Crystal when you go to the Outer-Region Battlefield, thinking that the Alien Race can't do anything to you. You must be extremely careful."
After Jiang Yao gratefully withdrew from the Chaos Ruins, the Chaos City Lord looked into the void with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"The Ancestral God Sect..."
