Full Comprehension of the Essence of Time and Space (Seeking Follows)

Inside the secret room of the Universe Chaos Stele, chaotic air currents permeated the space, radiating a profound sense of the laws. Wu Yun sat alone, contemplating.

Very few people dared to choose this particular chaos stele; sometimes, hundreds of thousands of years would pass without a single taker. After all, the difficulty of contemplating time and space simultaneously was simply too absurd.

The realm of Chaos City Lord is so high; his understanding of time and space is far more profound than that of the other chaos steles.

Wu Yun had previously contemplated the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, meaning he already had some research into the space of the Three Realms, and the space of every world always shared commonalities.

He had even personally integrated himself into the space of the Primal Universe to travel, so he was at least no stranger to the basic essence, which allowed him to accurately judge that Chaos City Lord's realm was the highest.

The essence of space could be divided into 108 types, and the Nine Universes Chaos Stele interpreted them through diagrams of raindrops, drizzle, and rainstorms.

The composition of the Universe Chaos Stele, however, was an entirely different concept.

The first diagram regarding space consisted of a black sphere formed by 10,081 tiny particles. At first glance, it appeared to be a single whole, but from other angles, one could see the 10,081 particles scattered throughout.

The second diagram concerned time; it was similarly a macroscopic structure, yet a closer look revealed microscopic analysis.

As Wu Yun gazed at those diagrams, he felt as if he were seeing an ocean of time—vast, boundless, and infinitely mysterious—as if he were standing directly before the Great Dao itself.

Seven days passed quickly. His time for contemplating the Universe Chaos Stele ended, and from then on, he would have to earn it by clearing the Heavenly Bridge. Since Wu Yun was already a World Lord, he did not have the benefit of doubled points.

He was in no rush to challenge the Heavenly Bridge for the time being; he still needed time to digest what he had learned after contemplating the chaos stele.

Opportunities to reside in Chaos City were rare, and Wu Yun cherished this time. No sooner had he left the Universe Chaos Stele than he was eager to head to various locations to search for traces.

Traces left behind by powerful beings who had lived there in the past.

His realm in the Primal Universe was not considered high, and even the remnants left by a Fenghou-level immortal could benefit him greatly.

Whether it was time or space, Wu Yun would put effort into studying both, though his main body focused on space, while his Blood Luo Clone focused on time.

Wu Yun knew in his heart that by choosing the Universe Chaos Stele, the King-Level Immortals and even Universe Venerables watching him must surely think he was overestimating his own abilities.

Since he already had a deep understanding of the Law of Water and some comprehension of the Law of Space, wouldn't it have been better to honestly choose the corresponding chaos stele?

Therefore, Wu Yun was in no hurry to reveal his strength. He would only challenge one level of the Heavenly Bridge when he needed to contemplate the Universe Chaos Stele, stopping as soon as he passed.

He was waiting for the day when he would remain silent no longer and shock everyone with a single feat.

Wu Yun would occasionally audit the lectures of King-Level Immortals. The number of masters in the lineage of the Universe Chaos Stele was very small; in this era, there were only seven.

The lineage of the Nine Universes Chaos Stele, by contrast, had over a dozen.

Although few in number, the weakest of these seven were high-level King-Level powerhouses. After all, no one who reached the King level on this path was mediocre.

However, he had no intention of taking on a master.

In the Blood Luo Continent, Wu Yun had been able to receive guidance from a Venerable. He wanted to shock the world and be taken as a disciple directly by a Universe Overlord or even a Universe Master.

Inside the Virtual Universe.

Wu Yun carefully browsed through the secret techniques. He had received a million points for free the moment he entered the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

One had to admit, the Giant Axe Arena was truly generous when it came to cultivating talented juniors.

When Domain Lords were admitted to the core layer, they still had to be sent out to complete missions to earn points.

When World Lords were admitted, they were gifted points for free right from the start.

This "Unity of Time and Space" secret technique is said to have been left by the founder of the Universe Chaos Stele, which means it was written by Chaos City Lord himself. Wu Yun had flipped through almost all the secret techniques and consulted a great deal of information.

He finally decided to purchase this specific technique. As for the others, Wu Yun couldn't even be bothered to look; there was absolutely no need.

He was not lacking in secret techniques created by King-Level Immortals or Universe Venerables.

The Blood Luo Continent had everything one could ever want.

Only "Unity of Time and Space" was left by Chaos City Lord himself, and it was far more rigorous than the "Time and Space Essays," requiring significantly more points.

The "Essays" were just that—the founder of the Nine Universes Chaos Stele recorded whatever came to mind. But Chaos City Lord was a man of great seriousness; the techniques he left behind were absolutely meticulous.

Wu Yun immersed himself in these years of cultivation. Just as Ancestor Dongyan had said, his heart toward the Dao was extremely fervent.

Contemplating the essence of space went smoothly. Wu Yun had already conducted deep research before entering Chaos City, and he had already comprehended over a hundred types, though he had hidden his true strength during the assessment.

Only the most complex few remained uncomprehended. Now that he had arrived in Chaos City, contemplated the Universe Chaos Stele, and had the guidance of techniques like "Unity of Time and Space," his speed of comprehension was naturally extremely fast.

Once all 108 types of essence were fully comprehended, even without any amplification methods, he could reach the level of the 12th level of the Heavenly Bridge, and with amplification, he could basically stabilize at the 13th level.

Soon, the day to leave Chaos City arrived.

Wu Yun departed alone on a spacecraft, his solitary figure appearing somewhat lonely.

"In such a long time, he only challenged the Heavenly Bridge three times and visited the Universe Chaos Stele three times," King Pujin thought, filled with endless confusion. "He didn't even take a master. What exactly is he thinking?"

Merely hearing of Wu Yun's actions made him feel a bit indignant. A World Lord who had fought life-and-death battles in the Giant Axe Arena, who had been lucky enough to enter the core layer, was being this arrogant.

With the talent Wu Yun had displayed, not to mention being taken as a disciple by a Venerable, it would have been very simple to become the disciple of a King-Level Immortal, yet he had stubbornly refused to do so.

Taking a master in Chaos City was a formal affair; for instance, if one wanted to study under a specific King-Level Immortal, one had to attend that person's lecture the first time.

The teacher for Wu Yun's first lecture was King Chongshan, under the Giant Axe Arena, and he had subsequently audited the classes of King Jiujian and other King-Level Immortals.

King Jiujian, who would eventually become Venerable Jiujian, was very close to breaking through at this moment. He had comprehended all three branches and was only one step away from the complete Law of Space.

Moreover, King Jiujian had a short cultivation history and was hailed as having a great possibility of becoming a Venerable, so many youngsters racked their brains trying to become his disciple.

"To be this arrogant even as a World Lord... I heard his performance was average. Venerable Shihuo valued his potential and specifically gave him the opportunity to enter the Giant Axe Secret Realm. Who would have thought he was just a reckless fool who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth."

"The qualification battle for your Giant Axe Arena secret realm is coming up soon, right? He'll definitely be weeded out by then."

"He doesn't even have a teacher to guide him; what kind of strength could he possibly have?"

In Chaos City, besides the permanent residents, Immortal Gods often come to cultivate. When bored, they enjoy gossiping about the geniuses in the secret realms.

After all, ordinary Immortal Gods can only serve as bodyguards for true geniuses; in terms of status, they don't even compare to a World Lord from the Original Secret Realm.

Beyond their chatter, even King-Level Immortals have a poor impression of Wu Yun.

In the eyes of most, Wu Yun has already been labeled as arrogant. Choosing the Universe Chaos Stele might at most suggest ambition in his cultivation, or perhaps it truly is a genuine fit.

But to not seek out a teacher while in Chaos City? Is he waiting for a King-Level Immortal, or perhaps even a Universe Venerable, to take the initiative and accept him as a disciple?

Even if he can rival an ordinary Immortal as a World Lord, so what?

In every generation of the Original Secret Realm, World Lords of the Giant Axe Secret Realm can basically reach this level; there are far too many of them, and even many World Lord generals on the Outer Realm Battlefield can do the same.

But they would never have guessed that Wu Yun's cultivation speed is terrifyingly fast.

"I have fully comprehended all 108 essences of space; now, I can focus primarily on time." Wu Yun sat on the sofa of his spaceship, carefully studying the time secret techniques recorded in Unity of Time and Space.

Time can also be divided into 108 essences.

His progress in this area is slower, but relying on the guidance of King-Level Immortals and Universe Venerables, Wu Yun has managed to comprehend 102 of them. Fully mastering them is only a matter of time.

Thirty years in Chaos City, plus the journey back to the Giant Axe Arena, and he has comprehended 108 spatial essences, along with 102 time essences.

If others knew of this, they would surely be struck speechless.

Blood Luo Continent.

"Your progress in the Law of Water is quite good. You could easily master the Law of Space first before moving on to the Law of Time." This was the first time Elder Yan had spoken to Wu Yun about this.

He had previously thought that Wu Yun was just being ambitious, wanting to comprehend both of the supreme laws of time and space simultaneously. He assumed that once Wu Yun hit a wall, he would realize this path was impossible, so there was no need to intervene.

When Wu Yun came to ask him questions regarding the Law of Time, Elder Yan was still happy to provide answers.

But who would have thought that for all these years, the other party had been focusing wholeheartedly on the Law of Time, cultivating so intensely he forgot to eat or sleep, not even touching space.

Seeing Wu Yun on the verge of ruining his own potential, Elder Yan was naturally burning with anxiety.

Within the human race, a genius like Wu Yun might not attract the attention of many powerful beings, but on the Blood Luo Continent, it was an entirely different concept.

"Elder Yan, my progress in the Law of Space is actually faster than my progress in the Law of Time," Wu Yun said with a smile. "I have already fully comprehended all 108 essences of space."

If not for his immense strength, Elder Yan would have suspected he had misheard. He looked at Wu Yun in disbelief, staring at that refined, youthful face.

"You... you've comprehended all 108 essences of space?" Elder Yan looked as if he had seen a ghost; he hadn't really seen Wu Yun practicing space at all.

He had come to find Wu Yun fearing that the boy was neglecting his duties and delaying his comprehension of space.

"Yes." Wu Yun tapped his finger in the air, demonstrating the 108 essences of space for Elder Yan. He had no need to hide his talents on the Blood Luo Continent; the greater his strength, the more resources he could obtain.

Elder Yan is a Universe Venerable of Time. What he is currently comprehending most is the Law of Space; if he can fully master it, he will become a Universe Master.

Yet, Elder Yan has toiled over the Law of Space for hundreds of billions of years, and to this day, he has only mastered teleportation. Spatial strangulation and spatial locking remain distant, let alone complete mastery.

Becoming a Universe Master is far too difficult.

Hearing that Wu Yun had comprehended all the spatial essences and was nearing completion of the time essences, the shock and joy in his heart were beyond description.

"Cultivating time and space simultaneously—if you can fully comprehend the essences of time, your strength will undergo a massive transformation," Elder Yan said quickly. "If you have any confusion regarding time, come find me at any time."

Normally, by comprehending 108 essences, plus the lower laws and amplification methods, a peak World Lord can rival an ordinary Immortal.

But if one comprehends the essences of both time and space, rivaling a powerful military Immortal is no problem at all. A King-Level Immortal who cultivates both paths would possess heaven-defying combat power.
