Luo Feng: An Unseeable Gap
In the Virtual Universe, the wind howled and the sea of clouds surged at the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain.
After an unknown amount of time, three respectful voices resounded atop Heaven-Reaching Mountain.
"Congratulations, Your His Highness Luo Feng, on successfully conquering the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain!"
"Every member of our Human Race who can conquer the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain being, is an unparalleled genius, appearing only once every tens of millions of epochs!"
The speakers were the three gatekeepers at the mountaintop, all veteran Smart Life from the Virtual Universe Company.
They have guarded this place for millions of years, witnessing countless geniuses, yet only a handful have reached the top. Looking at the young man before them, the three spoke with great satisfaction.
After all, the stronger the Human Race is, the more computing power these Smart Life will have to slack off and play virtual games.
Luo Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering in the mountain wind.
He looked down at the endless, desolate land beneath his feet. The mountain wind whipped up the stray hairs on his forehead, carrying a biting gale, but it couldn't dispel the sharpness in his eyes.
"Finally—I stand at the very pinnacle of Human Race genius."
Luo Feng murmured, "The World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, I now stand at the pinnacle of the strongest geniuses—but a genius is ultimately just a genius, not a true powerhouse."
He looked up into the depths of the Virtual Universe, where it seemed as if the Origin of the Universe were flowing.
"One day—"
"I too will stand at the pinnacle of the universe's strongest!"
From a naive boy on Earth who embarked on the path of martial arts for a house and a stable home, to a powerful figure standing at the pinnacle of Human Race geniuses, he has walked this path steadily and surely.
What kept him going was never just the will to survive, but also the dream and passion hidden deep in his heart that never died out. Any path to the top, without the support of dreams and passion, is almost a pipe dream if it doesn't lead to great achievements.
Hmm, Luo Feng suddenly thought of someone, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. Besides that freak Tang Ping!
That guy, all he does is eat, drink, and have fun, yet his cultivation level is skyrocketing like a rocket, it's completely unreasonable!
Brush!
The thought had barely formed in his mind when Luo Feng's figure transformed into a streak of Flowing Light and vanished from the summit of Heaven-Reaching Mountain.
Almost simultaneously, news of Luo Feng's breakthrough of the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, spread throughout the upper echelons of the Human Race.
The Tongtian Bridge Plane.
Bafen, the steadfast one, sits cross-legged on the island, unchanged for billions of years.
Brush!
A whooshing sound rang out, and Luo Feng's figure suddenly appeared on the island.
Bafen recognized the person and instantly broke into a bright smile, "Your His Highness Luo Feng! It's been such a long time since I've seen you!"
"Haha, you're right!" Luo Feng strode forward, laughing and joking, "I've really missed you, Bafen, so I came to see you."
During the pleasantries, Luo Feng's mind was already racing.
According to the rules of the Virtual Universe Company, the reward for conquering the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, is 100 billion points! And the reward for conquering the Tongtian Bridge to the Twentieth Layer is also quite substantial, a full 52,428,800 points.
Although these mere fifty million points only account for a fraction of his current total wealth and are insignificant, every little bit counts. These points are enough for him to cultivate two Plant Lifeform at the Marquis Level; if he were to distribute them to the younger generation of his Earth family for their daily cultivation, they could last for millions of years.
Only when you're in charge do you realize how expensive firewood and rice are; even the strongest person has to be frugal to make ends meet.
Moreover, this is the benefit of being backed by a top-tier, fair and just power like Virtual Universe Company. As long as you can demonstrate sufficient value, the resources and status you desire will be continuously delivered to you.
Of course, if you don't have that ability, then you can only become a cog in a large machine, moved wherever needed and manipulated by others.
After a moment of reflection, Luo Feng decided not to delay any longer and turned to walk towards the Tongtian Bridge.
"Luo Feng!"
Bafen's voice suddenly came from behind, "Rong Jun, Bolan, Manka, Aichen, and the others asked me to pass on a message to you: although you've gone ahead, they'll catch up very quickly. Be careful not to be overtaken!"
Luo Feng suddenly stopped in his tracks, then, as if he had thought of something, a confident smile slowly crept onto his lips.
He didn't turn around, but simply stood with his back to Bafen, his voice calm and carrying throughout the entire island. "Those who fall to my hand are never considered my opponents. I'll give you time to catch up, until you can no longer see me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Feng's figure transformed into a streak of Flowing Light and stepped into the light curtain of the Tongtian Bridge.
But in a matter of moments... Boom!
The light pillar that grants passage to the Twentieth Layer of the Tongtian Bridge shot straight into the sky!
Bafen's eyes lit up, and he immediately burst into laughter, tapping his fingers rapidly. The next second, Luo Feng's domineering words, in bold and large font, were sent to all the registered geniuses of the Virtual Universe Company!
This is the magnanimity that a peerless genius of the Human Race should possess!
The news caused an uproar among the geniuses at Virtual Universe Company.
Some people were stunned and filled with excitement, clenching their fists on the spot and vowing to catch up; others looked at the sentence, their faces pale and their eyes filled with despair, the gap was too big, and they could not catch up at all; still others beat their chests and stamped their feet, full of regret, hating themselves for not having worked hard sooner.
At this moment, in the Initial Universe, in Chaos City, in Chaos Ruins.
The Chaos City Lord stood amidst a Chaos current of air, gazing at the images transmitted from the Virtual Universe, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Luo Feng's rate of progress is truly astonishing! He actually managed to break through the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain!"
It wasn't that he underestimated Luo Feng.
The strength required to Law Comprehension the Twentieth Layer of the laws is merely one of the conditions for passing the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain challenge. The true test requires comprehensive strength in many aspects, including Combat Secret Technique, Body Amplitude Secret Technique, Mental Power Amplitude techniques, and willpower—none of which can be lacking!
"Once he gets through this, those old fogies in Chaos City will probably stop arguing." A relieved smile appeared on the Chaos City Lord's lips. "They all say Rong Jun has a bright future, and that my personal disciples are probably no match for Rong Jun. Hmph, this time, they'll have nothing to say."
But as he laughed, the Chaos City Lord's expression turned helpless.
He suddenly thought of that brat named Tang Ping, and the arrogant and smug face of Lord of Peng Gong, and his head started spinning. To this day, he still couldn't figure out how Tang Ping's exaggerated speed of progress had come about.
How could someone with no real combat experience, who just spends all his time indulging in pleasure in the Divine Temple, improve his cultivation faster than a rocket? What's even more outrageous is that his willpower is also rapidly increasing!
Thinking of this, the Chaos City Lord couldn't help but rub his temples. An absurd thought popped into his mind: Could this Tang Ping be one of those reincarnated supreme beings from those online novels on Earth?
"Ding~"
An email notification sounded. The Chaos City Lord glanced down and saw a message from Bafen, containing Luo Feng's domineering declaration. As if remembering something, the Chaos City Lord grinned and ordered, "Honored One Guiyi!"
A ghostly figure quickly appeared, bowing respectfully. "Your subordinate is here."
"Make arrangements immediately! Send several top media reporters to interview Luo Feng! Spread his story and his words to every corner of the Primal Universe! Let billions of geniuses see for themselves the charisma and magnanimity of our Human Race's prodigy!"
"Yes!"
Honored One Guiyi the order and quickly withdrew.
Watching his disciple's figure disappear, Chaos was in a good mood. Although Luo Feng's combat strength was temporarily inferior to Tang Ping's, this guy knew how to show off!
With these words, countless Human Race geniuses will be inspired and encouraged for billions of years to come.
As for Tang Ping, who's that? I don't know him!
Hehe~
