Possessing a Special Life Form

Lanzang City Lord is also a Universe Lord from the Giant Axe Arena lineage.

Wu Yun quickly recalled this Universe Lord; the original work only described him once, during the time the Giant Axe fell, when he, Venerable Ancestral Tree, and Void Gold Master were rescuing people.

As for his strength, personality, and the like, nothing was clear.

But regardless, he was a Universe Lord, and the strength of human Universe Lords was generally quite decent; the lower limit for Lanzang City Lord should be at the third tier.

These Universe Lords are quite interesting; they don't even send emails personally to take on disciples, Wu Yun thought, assuming this might be the legendary demeanor of the strong.

He wondered just how monstrous one had to be for a Universe Lord to personally send an email to accept them as a disciple.

Lanzang City Lord stayed in the Giant Axe Secret Realm for long periods, but he also had a clone stationed in the Primal Universe. Had it not been for the apprenticeship, Wu Yun probably wouldn't have even known such a great power existed within the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

In the Dark Universe.

I am a dignified World Lord of the Giant Axe Secret Realm, yet the spaceship I'm riding is only at ten times the speed of light. Wu Yun took this time to start replying to messages, informing those Universe Venerables that he had been accepted as a disciple by Lanzang City Lord.

Upon hearing this, those Universe Venerables would reply with congratulations, while also praising Wu Yun as the light of the future with a boundless path ahead.

His failure to be accepted by them was within their expectations; after all, it was nearly impossible for a Universe Venerable to compete with a Universe Lord.

Especially since Wu Yun cultivated the Universe Chaos Stele; what he needed most was a teacher who had mastered the laws of time and space.

After the spaceship traveled through the Dark Universe for seven hours, it finally arrived at the Nine Star Sea within the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

The Nine Star Sea was boundless, with a diameter of 2.2 light-years from south to north. Suspended in every corner of the ocean were nine giant stars, each with a diameter of up to eight million kilometers.

Inside was an endless ocean. While called a sea, the density of the water was second only to a white dwarf. The internal environment was extremely wondrous, and it even nurtured living beings.

This was also a dangerous-level mission of the Giant Axe Secret Realm, and its value was even higher than that of the Blood Luo Continent.

And at a place trillions of kilometers above the Nine Star Sea, a dark red spherical palace was suspended, with a large number of spaceships taking off and landing there.

Wu Yun's spaceship also landed at the palace's docking port. As he walked out of the ship, the staff members were all bewildered, as he was radiating the aura of a World Lord.

"What is your purpose here?" the staff member in charge of reception asked.

The Nine Star Sea often had Star Level geniuses coming for trials, needing to survive in this endless sea for a hundred years to pass, but Wu Yun's aura was clearly not that of a Star Level.

Wu Yun replied softly: "King Mengchen told me to come."

Naturally, low-level staff would not know about matters like apprenticing to a Universe Lord, especially since Wu Yun's information was currently completely classified.

After Kedi completely fell, various factions had strengthened the protection of their geniuses.

Swish!

A sky-blue figure appeared; it was King Mengchen, a personal disciple of Lanzang City Lord, a peak King-Level soul master who possessed a resounding reputation on the Outer Realm Battlefield.

The status of a soul master was extremely high; a peak King-Level could be compared to a near-invincible King-Level.

King Mengchen smiled: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, come with me."

After saying this, he released his Immortal God power to envelop Wu Yun, then teleported to a pale blue gate, where two Immortal Gods were standing guard.

"King Mengchen." The Immortal Gods standing guard at the door said respectfully.

Their status was not high, and they had stood here for millions of years just to earn some points.

"Go on, Teacher is waiting for you." King Mengchen couldn't be bothered to pay attention to those two ordinary Immortals, saying with a smile: "Teacher's lineage has few people; I finally have another junior brother."

The pale blue metal gate was a hundred feet high, with a terrifyingly high density; an ordinary Star Level probably wouldn't even be able to push it open. After Wu Yun pushed the door open and entered, the scene before him left him somewhat shocked.

It was a boundless ocean, completely modeled after the structure of the Nine Star Sea, and beneath Wu Yun's feet was a path paved with billions of star remains, connecting to the end of the starry sky.

At the end stood a towering figure. He was like the master of time and space, his aura so terrifying that it seemed as if he could shatter a star field with a mere gesture.

"Wu Yun, from the territory of the Blood Demon King to the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, you actually had the strength comparable to a peak World Lord long ago, am I wrong?"

Lanzang City Lord said with a smile. His long hair reached his waist, and every strand shimmered with silver light. This clone was a special life form; although it was humanoid, many characteristics had not changed.

"I..." Wu Yun's pupils dilated. He had thought he kept his secrets well; normally, he shouldn't have been exposed.

Who could have guessed that Lanzang City Lord would specifically perform a spacetime retrospection to probe what had happened in the past? Since he had the intention to take him as a disciple, he naturally had to see if Wu Yun was reliable.

However, the past that Lanzang City Lord saw did not have high authenticity.

A Heavenly Immortal can perform the minor technique of time retrospection, which can naturally be confused, but fortunately, I didn't try to be clever and confuse it.

Wu Yun quickly thought through all the outcomes. With Lanzang City Lord's status, how could he make things difficult for him over such a small matter? Besides, he had already said he would take him as a disciple. Still, he feigned panic on the surface: "Lanzang City Lord, I also had some hidden difficulties."

"The Blood Demon King, I see." Lanzang City Lord said softly: "It is a good thing to have the strength and know how to hide it. If you had apprenticed to a King-Level Immortal in Chaos City and settled down for tens of thousands of years before slowly revealing your strength, I probably wouldn't have gone to investigate your past."

Wu Yun thought to himself that he didn't want to waste that much time.

He had long since saved up enough simulation prestige points, and the number of simulations was closely related to his combat power; he had only endured because he didn't want to waste the World Lord stage.

"Reporting to Lanzang City Lord, although I had the strength to kill a peak World Lord before entering the Giant Axe Secret Realm, the essence of time and space was indeed realized only after entering."

Wu Yun said respectfully: "From realizing the essence to being acknowledged by the laws of time and space, I actually only spent seven hundred years."

Lanzang City Lord was not surprised. In the past he had seen, Wu Yun had to expend some effort to kill a peak World Lord, so his realm and cultivation time were naturally correct.

It was because of such talent that Lanzang City Lord would directly accept him as a personal disciple.

"Are you willing to become my disciple?" Lanzang City Lord asked.

Wu Yun immediately performed the formal apprenticeship ceremony and quickly replied, "This disciple is willing."

Blood Luo Continent, Immortal Temple.

Within the hidden space of the Elder Hall, Elder Yan and another Universe Venerable elder joined forces to open it; only with the simultaneous authorization of two elders could it be opened.

This place was the essence of the entire Blood Luo Continent race.

The quantity of resources was staggering, including over a hundred heavy treasures, weapons like the Space-Locking Arm, and even a special life form on display.

However, that special life form was currently in a deep slumber.

"Yan, this is the only special life form we have encountered in hundreds of millions of years." The Universe Venerable who spoke had a grave expression. "I hope Wu Yun can live up to expectations and reach the strength of the Outer-World Race."

Elder Yan replied in a blunt and rough manner, "Wu Yun is the greatest genius our Blood Luo Continent has seen in endless years. We can only believe in him, do you understand?"

After speaking, Elder Yan picked up the special life form and walked out.

Wu Yun had mentioned to him not long ago that he wanted to possess a special life form, and the Blood Luo Continent's inventory only held this one, which had been captured many years ago.

This World-Level special life form had been easily lulled into a deep sleep by Elder Yan, and finally, by slowing down the flow of time, they hoped to wait for a descendant with sufficient talent to appear.

"Wu Yun, this is a special life form. Possess it." Elder Yan arrived outside Wu Yun's residence in an instant and threw the special life form onto the ground.

Hearing the sound, Wu Yun walked out. He was somewhat startled to see the special life form lying on the ground; it was a humanoid creature with two heads.

"Its heads represent the ability to create one clone," Elder Yan explained. "World-Level special life forms are so rare that they are almost never seen, even among the Outer-World Race."

What Wu Yun actually wanted was the cloning talent; the gene multiplier was secondary.

"Many thanks, Elder Yan," Wu Yun said with great gratitude. He was in dire need of a special life form capable of cloning.

Possessing a special life form was not difficult, as Wu Yun's soul was also at the World-Level.

The soul and the physical body must be compatible; if a World Lord were to possess a Universe-Level special life form, the target would likely collapse from being unable to withstand the pressure.

After Wu Yun executed the possession secret technique, he easily crushed the soul of the sleeping special life form and took its place.

"The gene multiplier isn't high, only 200 times. Compared to those heaven-defying special life forms in the universe, it's like the difference between heaven and earth." Wu Yun felt his new body.

He stood about six meters tall, but this was only his height at the World-Level; there would be differences after becoming an Immortal.

With a gene multiplier of 200, his base strength was already stronger than that of an ordinary Immortal God, not to mention he possessed King-Level law comprehension.

After the main body completed the apprenticeship ceremony, he was officially a disciple of Lanzang City Lord, holding a status even higher than ordinary World Lords in the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

"You are the seventh in my lineage."

Lanzang City Lord said, "Among your senior fellow disciples, only King Mengchen is a King-Level Immortal; the rest are all Universe Venerables. According to the customs of my Giant Axe Arena, during the World-Level stage, one must undergo life-and-death trials. I have also prepared to provide you with some resources."

What Wu Yun cared about most was resources.

He did not expect Lanzang City Lord to be like Chaos City Lord and hand over a supreme treasure, but it should at least be at the level of a heavy treasure.

"I grant you three billion points. If you need anything else, you may ask for it yourself." The amount of points Lanzang City Lord gave was exactly the reward for clearing the Domain-Level Heavenly Mountain.

He knew that a rogue cultivator like Wu Yun was relatively poor and had not undergone the systematic training of the Giant Axe Arena.

Life-and-death missions and serving as a regional governor were both channels to earn many points, and resource allocation during the World-Level stage was primarily for cultivation.

To truly arm himself, he would have to use his points.

"Teacher, I wish to possess a special life form," Wu Yun said directly. "Anything with a cloning talent will do; the gene multiplier does not matter."

"Special life forms—the Hong Alliance inventory does not have one suitable for you," Lanzang City Lord said after a moment of thought. "The Hong Alliance cannot guarantee a constant supply of World-Level special life forms; it depends on luck."

Special life forms were inherently rare, and World-Level ones were even more so. They generally grew to the Immortal stage before emerging, spending their days safely within cosmic secret realms.

The smallest cosmic secret realm was comparable to a galaxy, containing a vast number of floating meteorites and various dangers, making life inside quite secure for them.

Wu Yun felt helpless. Relying on himself to stumble upon a special life form was less practical than finding a way to locate a World-Level Golden Horned Beast.
