The Heart of the Strong (Please Follow)

At this point, Wu Yun could no longer be bothered to settle down at the Domain Lord level; it was completely meaningless, so he chose to break through to the World Lord level.

[Three years after stabilizing your cultivation, you attempted the breakthrough.]

[You succeeded.]

[Simulation complete...]

Returning to the real world, Wu Yun suddenly felt a connection. He looked into the void, realizing that in some infinitely distant place, a new clone had been born.

His cultivation also surged violently, rising abruptly from Universe-Level to World Lord Level 1. Absorbing cultivation through simulations within the same worldview could save a great deal of arduous training time.

Fully absorbing all the memories from the simulation, Wu Yun couldn't help but sigh. He had joined the Immortal Temple at the end, gaining a deeper understanding of the entire Blood Luo Continent.

What the World City Lord had been exposed to was merely the tip of the iceberg.

Unlike vassal races like the Golden Horn Race, the Blood Luo Continent did not submit to humanity. They had been resisting for endless years, often capturing Outer-World Races for research.

They studied spaceships and various other technological products, or enslaved those Universe-Level trial-takers to serve as whetstones for the geniuses of the Immortal Temple.

Everyone there firmly believed that one day they would break the blockade of the Outer-World Races and even launch a counterattack to occupy their territories, but only Wu Yun knew this was pure wishful thinking.

What if they could produce a Universe Master?

If it weren't for the fact that the beings of the Blood Luo Continent were human, the Lord of Tian Shi or other Universe Masters would have long since slaughtered those Venerables and Immortals before ruling over the remaining survivors.

This simulation made Wu Yun crave power even more. In any worldview, strength is the only eternal truth; this was his own heart of a powerhouse.

"The plan has to change." Wu Yun had originally intended to make a name for himself through the Peak Powerhouse Battle, but now that he was at the World Lord level, he naturally had to adjust.

Swish!

With a void traversal, Wu Yun left the planet. He prepared to find a way to join the Virtual Universe Company or the Giant Axe Arena.

Although the identity and status of Bei Ye were stable, Wu Yun had no intention of maintaining that facade.

Staying under the Blood Demon King's territory had no future; no matter how strong your strength or how monstrous your talent, if your luck was bad, you would be turned into a Blood Demon Warrior.

After a long flight, Wu Yun finally arrived within the territory of the Ganwu Universe Kingdom. He put away his spaceship and changed his appearance.

He had previously appeared as Bei Ye, but the other party's facial features and physique were vastly different from those of an Earthling, and Wu Yun didn't care for it.

Before him lay a massive planet nearly a million kilometers in diameter; in terms of volume, it was even more exaggerated than a prefecture of the Great Xia Dynasty.

This planet was called Chenyan Planet, one of the nine primary administrative planets of the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, home to trillions of people year-round!

Such a colossal planet was entirely man-made, and even quite a few Immortal Gods lived on Chenyan Planet long-term.

Tens of millions of kilometers away from Chenyan Planet, a large number of machines were already screening incoming ships. Any ship not registered within the Universe Kingdom would be intercepted.

Wu Yun's ship was not registered in the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, but as a World Lord powerhouse, he only needed to reveal his aura, and staff would serve him respectfully.

Landing at the spaceport went smoothly as well. The staff enthusiastically pointed him in the right direction and politely answered all of Wu Yun's questions.

Chenyan Planet was too vast and prosperous; Wu Yun did not use his divine sense or heart-sense to probe, fearing he might disturb some reclusive powerhouse.

Although the Ganwu Universe Kingdom had no King-Level Immortals, there were quite a few Marquis-Level ones, and Wu Yun wasn't sure if a Marquis-Level could sense his heart-sense.

Following the map of Chenyan Planet, Wu Yun first arrived at the Affairs Center.

He had to register his citizenship first. However, when Wu Yun walked in and revealed his aura, the staff were nearly frightened out of their wits; it was their first time seeing a World Lord powerhouse come to register for citizenship.

"Could he be a legendary reclusive powerhouse from a major faction who only came out after reaching the World Lord level?"

"Don't guess blindly, be careful the supervisor hears you and docks your pay."

After Wu Yun left, the staff began to whisper. Even on Chenyan Planet, where powerhouses were as common as clouds, World Lord powerhouses were still a rare sight.

After completing his citizenship, Wu Yun was finally able to open his own account in the virtual universe.

The virtual universe was incredibly miraculous; without citizenship, even the strongest in the universe could only use anonymous accounts.

Entering the virtual universe, Wu Yun carefully studied the recruitment information released by the major corporate giants. The Giant Axe Arena, the Universe Galaxy Bank, and others all recruited from the vast citizenry of the Universe Kingdom.

He planned to find a way for his Blood Luo Continent clone to join the Virtual Universe Company, while his true self would join the Giant Axe Arena.

Although Wu Yun possessed all the memories of his Blood Luo Continent clone, he was destined not to view himself as a native; it was human nature to strive for higher ground.

Cultivation in the Swallowed Star world was not just about realm; other external factors were equally important. He had to leave that world in the future.

Of course, if Wu Yun became strong enough in the future, he would still give back to the Blood Luo Continent.

"Giant Axe Arena External Deacon Recruitment." Wu Yun connected and entered. First, the system verified his strength; the minimum requirement was Domain Lord.

Hum~

A moment later, a call request came through.

"Wu Yun, you want to join our Giant Axe Arena?" A white-haired old man spoke. His voice was hoarse, but his aura was quite formidable.

"Yes." Wu Yun smiled: "But I only saw the recruitment for External Deacon. I wonder what the requirements are to join the internal ranks of the Giant Axe Arena and become a core member?"

The recruitment methods for external members and internal members were vastly different.

Especially since Wu Yun was talking about core members, which meant joining a specific training secret realm.

It was difficult enough for Star-Level or Universe-Level individuals to join a secret realm.

Even Hong had to pass through the Giant Axe Arena Elite Training Camp before finally being absorbed into the core layer.

Because the resources allocated for cultivating core members increase at every stage, the requirements for them become increasingly demanding as well.

At the Star Level, perhaps just having a grasp of a law is enough to get in.

By the time one reaches the World Lord level, what does being acknowledged by the origin laws even count for? At the very least, one must be able to escape from an Immortal under the status of a World Lord, and the strongest among them can even rival a King-Level Immortal!

"If you want to join the core ranks of our Giant Axe Arena, first get acknowledged by the origin laws; even then, it doesn't guarantee entry." The old man curled his lip: "If you can become a Giant Axe Warrior at the World Lord level, then come talk to me like this."

Having said that, he ended the call directly.

He had seen countless World Lords spouting such delusional nonsense; just having reached this level, how strong could he possibly be?

"It seems I've been looked down upon." Wu Yun rested his chin on his right hand: "This level of difficulty doesn't seem all that high."
