Xuanshang Universe Lord

Virtual Universe, Lanhui City on the Kasolo Island.

"You really know how to get me into trouble."

Clad in purple armor, exuding a murderous aura, Kasolo glared at Jiang Yao with annoyance. "If I ever perish like Jiuyuan, it'll probably be because of you. You have no idea how many emails I've received; I'm even considering shutting down the Virtual Universe Network altogether."

Jiang Yao chuckled and then asked, "Teacher, what's so urgent that you said it was extremely urgent in an email you sent me?"

Kasolo smiled. "The Special Envoy of the Xuanshang Universe Lord has arrived."

"Special Envoy of the Xuanshang Universe Lord?"

Jiang Yao was startled. Could the Communication Talisman really have alarmed the Xuanshang Universe Lord?

Kasolo noticed Jiang Yao's confusion and said seriously, "Although only Immortal God can receive the legacy left by the Holy Lord of the Shixing Race, which Universe Venerable doesn't have relatives, friends, and clans to rely on? Moreover, Universe Venerable also have disciples, so it's normal for them to give the Inheritance Token to their disciples to compete for."

Kasolo noticed Jiang Yao's doubts and knew what he was worried about. "It's not in reality, it's just Virtual Universe, what are you worried about?"

"Furthermore, the Xuanshang Universe Lord is not the Zhenxuan King. The Zhenxuan King acted aggressively before his fall, otherwise he would not have attracted the pursuit of the Zerg Queen. It is normal that his personality became more extreme after being resurrected."

"Although I don't know much about the Xuanshang Universe Lord, as far as I know, His Majesty holds a very high position even among the Universe Venerable, and his personality has always been gentle. Many powerful individuals I know have received help and guidance from His Majesty. Go with peace of mind."

Kasolo's words somewhat dispelled Jiang Yao's doubts.

At Kasolo's direction, he walked to the square behind the palace, where he saw a giant with a full head of silver hair, wearing a golden cloak, and standing about ten meters tall, looking at him.

"Lingcang Marquis!"

Jiang Yao felt a chill run down his spine. Good heavens, this Special Envoy was actually an old acquaintance! Was the Xuanshang Universe Lord doing this on purpose? Where did this awkwardness mixed with a bit of guilt come from?

He had a very deep impression of Lingcang Marquis. Lingcang Marquis had tried to kill him and the Realm Lord Mo Hong in one move inside the Inheritance Tower, but after he escaped, Ling Canghou pursued him all the way, forcing him to escape to the depths of the Space Interlayer in his incarnation, Bizhang, and only escaped by using death escape.

Of course, Lingcang Marquis might not have been very familiar with him before, but he must have a deep impression of him now.

Lingcang Marquis's expression was a half-smile. "You've really put me in a tough spot. I haven't seen anything like this in all the God Kingdom Trial of the Three Great Secret Realms and Divine Kingdoms. If you ever have the chance to return to the Xuanshang Universe Country, remember to treat me to a drink."

Jiang Yao breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Lingcang Marquis did not intend to hold the previous matter against him. He did not mention what kind of demon beast Bizhang was or what his relationship with him was, nor did he mention who killed the trial participants in the Inheritance Tower, Mo Hong or Bizhang, nor did he mention the Inheritance Token at all.

"Come with me, don't keep the two emperors waiting too long." Lingcang Marquis took out a sphere, entered a few passwords, and a teleportation pattern appeared on the ground of the square, which should be some kind of permission granted by the Virtual Universe.

"Your Majesties..." Jiang Yao stood beside Lingcang Marquis, wondering, "Could it be that besides the Xuanshang Universe Lord, there are other great beings who also wish to see him?"

Whoosh!

Jiang Yao and Lingcang Marquis had already been teleported away from Kasolo Island and instantly arrived in the center of the vast Xuanshang Continent.

Jiang Yao only felt the surrounding space change, and then he landed in front of an ancient palace built of unknown milky white stones.

"This is His Majesty's residence in the Virtual Universe, the Xuanshang Divine Palace. I won't go in; you can go in directly." Lingcang Marquis guard in front of the stone pillar, letting Jiang Yao enter alone.

Under the curious gazes of the temple guards, Jiang Yao stepped into the temple and saw a boy who was about two meters tall, with purple light patterns covering his body and long, silver-white hair hanging down his back.

Beside the boy was another being shrouded in mist, dressed in a black robe, whose true appearance was obscured, but from the vague outline, it could be roughly discerned that she was a woman.

Jiang Yao said respectfully, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The boy's expression was calm, and his voice was as clear as the striking of a bronze chime. Each word he uttered seemed to massage Jiang Yao's consciousness. "You are incredibly bold. Do you know that the inheritance of Yedier is not only desired by the Immortal God of our Human Race, but also by other top races who are collecting Inheritance Token."

"By announcing this so widely, this matter will not only be known to the Immortal Expert of our Human Race, but it will also not be kept from the Alien Race. The Alien Race have lurking organizations in various Universe Country. If you were King-level Immortal, naturally no one would have any other thoughts, but you are only a star-level being. Those Alien Race lurking in the territory of the Xuanshang Universe Country might just take action."

"Alien Race don't abide by the rules of the Virtual Universe Company; they won't hesitate to attack you."

Jiang Yao was startled, then smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "I really had no other choice. Zhenxuan King was pushing me too far, and I had no other option but to resort to this measure."

He would never miss an opportunity to sow discord among the Zhenxuan King.

The young-looking Xuanshang Universe Lord smiled, seemingly unconcerned by Jiang Yao's accusations against the Zhenxuan King.

The woman beside him, shrouded in mist and dressed in a long black robe, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up and asked, "Was that red and white bird-like monster that fought against the Realm Lord inside the Inheritance Tower the divine beast you possessed?"

Jiang Yao's heart skipped a beat, but he wasn't panicked. His brain started racing, and he was naturally prepared for the day when the Desolate God Bizhang Jiang Yao be exposed.

As long as Lingcang Marquis sees that he is still alive, he will naturally suspect the relationship between that divine beast and Jiang Yao.

Perhaps today is a good opportunity to bring this to the forefront.

"That divine beast was named Bizhang, and I did indeed possess it by chance."

As long as they don't directly transform into Bizhang in front of such an existence, the higher-ups of the Human Race probably won't have any outrageous guesses.

"Bizhang ..." The woman in black robes pondered the name without speaking.

The young-looking Xuanshang Universe Lord showed a gleam of interest in his eyes. Jiang Yao's words clearly implied that the divine beast he had possessed was still alive and had not died in the Space Torrent. Otherwise, Jiang Yao would most likely have brought up the fact that the divine beast had died.

Seeing that Jiang Yao didn't seem inclined to explain in detail, he didn't take it to heart; no one would easily reveal such a situation.

The clear, resonant sound of a bronze chime continued to echo, "It's quite remarkable that you've had this opportunity. Focus on your cultivation. There are still a few years until the final battle. I believe you have a chance to become the number one in the entire universe in this Genius Tournament and enter the Primal Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company."

"As for other things, you don't need to worry. I can guarantee that no one in the Human Race will dare to attack you. However, I still suggest that you stay on Lanhui Planet of the Kasolo Empire and not hide or run around. As long as you are on Lanhui Planet, I can guarantee that those lurking Alien Race will not threaten you."

As for those King-level Immortal who sent you emails, made call requests, or even wanted to come to the Xuanshang Universe Country in person, you don't need to reply to them. I will make it clear to them that the matter of the Inheritance Token will be discussed after the Genius Tournament is over."

Jiang Yao was pleasantly surprised. With the guarantee from the Xuanshang Universe Lord, not only was his safety assured, but he could also relieve most of the pressure brought about by the public disclosure of the Inheritance Token.

It was a bit strange that the Xuanshang Universe Lord didn't ask him about buying the Inheritance Token, but that was certainly a good thing.

Otherwise, he would find it difficult to find a dignified way to refuse without offending anyone.

The Lingtong Race still needs to survive and reproduce in the Xuanshang Universe Country.

"Get out."

Xuanshang Universe Lord watched Jiang Yao leave, he suddenly asked, "How was it? Was there anything wrong?"

The woman in black robes, shrouded in mist, spoke in a haunting voice, "Judging from his consciousness, everything is normal, so we can rule out the possibility of him being possessed by Alien Race."

"That's good. It seems this kid has indeed possessed an extremely powerful Special Lifeform, managing to escape from Lingcang Marquis's clutches. I know of several such Special Lifeform with strong survival abilities, but none of them are this red and white bird-shaped life form. It's very likely a newly born Special Lifeform in the universe. Interesting."

The Xuanshang Universe Lord continued, "Do you think it can compare to that Special Lifeform that Guluo possessed?"

The woman in black robes gently shook her head. "It's hard to judge based on Lingcang Marquis's description alone. Moreover, some Special Lifeform are powerful in the early stages but have low potential in the later stages. There are probably very few Special Lifeform that can match Guluo's fate."

"However, I am certain that the life Jiang Yao possessed is definitely stronger than a divine beast like the Starry Sky Behemoth. Among all such possession opportunities, it should rank among the top tier and is worth investing in."

"Oh?" The Xuanshang Universe Lord asked with a smile, "It seems you have the idea of taking on a disciple? That's right, you can tell from the way this kid used the Xing Divine Weapon and the Sui Divine Weapon in the Preliminary Elimination Tournament that he still has a lot of strength left, and he has some understanding of the two Higher Origin Law of space and time."

"Usually, geniuses who can comprehend two superior laws at such a young age, once they arrive in Chaos City, will have a 90% chance of stubbornly choosing the <Universe Chaos Stele>, no matter how others try to persuade them. You were once the sect leader of the Universe Lineage in Chaos City, so you are quite suitable."

The woman in black robes said in a cold tone, "I need to observe him more. His Law Comprehension is one thing, but I'm more interested in the enhancements he received from the Special Lifeform he possessed."

"Although everyone's bodies are identical in the Genius Tournament, the feedback and influence of the Special Lifeform he possessed on his human body will definitely be reflected in the battle. If there is truly a disciple with potential for cultivation, I certainly won't miss him."

For beings like her and the Xuanshang Universe Lord, even the strongest in the entire universe Genius Tournament or the Strongest Battle of geniuses, are usually not taken seriously.

Countless geniuses like this could be born over billions of years.

However, such opportunities are even rarer than geniuses. While the opportunity to possess a powerful race or even a divine beast is not uncommon, the opportunity to possess Special Lifeform is absolutely heaven-defying. Such geniuses have a greater ability to survive and greater potential for growth than other geniuses.

That's what made her want to take on a disciple.

"Judging from this kid's appearance, he probably still wants to protect the Yedier's Inheritance Token. His stubborn personality is quite similar to mine."

Hearing the black-robed woman's words, the young-looking Xuanshang Universe Lord chuckled and shook his head, "If it had happened a thousand or a hundred epochs earlier, Jiang Yao might have actually been able to preserve the Inheritance Token. But Yedier's inheritance is already very close to being activated, possibly within one epoch!"

"So fast?" The woman in black robes was somewhat surprised. She had no doubt about the judgment and information of the Xuanshang Universe Lord.

"The more powerful Human Race who possess the Inheritance Token and are granted a title of King-level, the greater the chance of obtaining the inheritance for the human race." The Xuanshang Universe Lord's eyes shone brightly. "The Four Peak Races will do their best to fight for this powerful inheritance that is suspected to be from before the Great Nirvana. The higher-ups of their races will not allow an Inheritance Token to be left idle."

"He's destined to miss this opportunity!"
