"Since the Virtual Universe Company has interfered, then accept it. However, it's still too early for the first option, and besides, Space Honored One is already what he is, he doesn't need other Honored Ones to teach him."

Su Heng looked at the conditions below the email. In fact, with his current strength, it was normal for the Virtual Universe Company to interfere.

After all, King-level Immortals could indeed be considered the foundation of the human race. In the entire human race, there were only about 100,000 King-level experts. Compared to the total population of the human race, it was simply too few.

Moreover, Su Heng, at the World Lord level, could already contend with King-level experts. Once he broke through to the Immortal level, how much stronger would he become?

King-level invincible, or an initial-stage Honored One?

No matter which one, it was a good investment!

"Choose the third option." Su Heng replied to an email.

He still needed some time for tempering. After tempering, he would go to the Lord of the Initial Universe to comprehend laws and create secret techniques.

Just as Su Heng was about to leave the Virtual Universe, an email interrupted him again.

"Come see me immediately."

These four simple words stunned Su Heng, because the sender of the email was his teacher, Mother Ancestor Honored One!

In fact, Su Heng had rarely received meeting requests from Mother Ancestor Honored One for the past two million years. However, this was not Mother Ancestor Honored One's fault, but his own.

The preciousness of the clone secret technique made it difficult for even King-level Immortals to obtain it.

Even many Universe Honored Ones could not obtain such secret techniques.

But Mother Ancestor Honored One had given such a rare secret technique to Su Heng, who was only at the Domain Lord level at the time.

With such high hopes placed upon him, Su Heng had failed to repay his teacher. Instead, he had been stuck at the World Lord realm for so many years.

Therefore, Su Heng felt extremely ashamed two million years ago and had never dared to meet Mother Ancestor Honored One.

Mother Ancestor Honored One seemed to understand her disciple's state of mind and no longer communicated frequently with Su Heng, only occasionally sending some cultivation secret techniques or providing some resources.

Now that Mother Ancestor Honored One had sent a meeting request, it was clearly because of the email sent by the Virtual Universe just now.

Su Heng said with a complex expression, "It really is teacher."

Even after millions of years of not seeing each other, Mother Ancestor Honored One was still paying attention to Su Heng.

Space flowed, and after Su Heng teleported, he immediately found himself in a vast space.

Not far in front of him, a supremely majestic figure suddenly appeared.

This figure was as sturdy as a mountain, wearing ancient silver armor, with a long green tail, and eyes that seemed to contain the entire universe. The invisible domineering aura emanating from him caused the surrounding space to distort.

Even in the Virtual Universe, Su Heng felt immense pressure.

"You've arrived."

The figure looked at Su Heng and said faintly.

"Teacher." Su Heng collected his thoughts and respectfully saluted the figure. This was his master, Mother Ancestor Honored One.

A master of space!

Mother Ancestor Honored One smiled upon seeing Su Heng's salute.

"I saw your battle with Hundred Ape Marquis. Very good! With your current strength, even among my many disciples, you would rank among the best!"

Mother Ancestor Honored One's voice was majestic, and Su Heng heard it as if it were a thunderous roar!

"It's all thanks to teacher's cultivation. Without that clone secret technique, I wouldn't have been able to..." Su Heng looked at Mother Ancestor Honored One's face and said sincerely.

"Alright, we're not here to get emotional today." Mother Ancestor Honored One first smiled slightly, then interrupted Su Heng, and continued with a serious expression.

"You also know that with your current bottleneck, it will be difficult to break through to the Immortal level in just these 100,000 years. But with the company's help, your success rate in breaking through to the Immortal level will be much higher. However, why did you choose the third option?"

As his most hopeful disciple, he had indeed paid close attention. After receiving the reply from the company, he had urgently summoned Su Heng to inquire about the specific reasons.

Su Heng had no intention of hiding anything. Moreover, this was the teacher who had nurtured him for many years, so he explained his plan.

"Replying to teacher, your disciple has found a glimmer of hope. I should be able to perfect 'Nirvana Life and Death' to the level of a top-tier ultimate skill soon. And regarding breaking through the bottleneck, your disciple already has a direction!"

"A top-tier ultimate skill..." Mother Ancestor Honored One nodded slightly. Nirvana Life and Death was actually an ordinary ultimate skill created by Su Heng under his guidance.

However, over tens of millions of years, it had slowly approached the level of a top-tier ultimate skill. It was normal for it to now enter the top-tier ultimate skill category.

But the upper limit of this ultimate skill was just that. To break through to the peak level, Su Heng would need to refine it for tens of millions of years!

However, according to his judgment, the previous Su Heng would have needed at least a secret technique close to the peak level to break through to the Immortal level.

Now that he had clearly obtained a significant opportunity, his bottleneck must be even stronger. He would probably need a truly peak ultimate skill to break through the bottleneck.

Could he really achieve it in less than 100,000 years?

Mother Ancestor Honored One looked at Su Heng with concern. If he were in the Initial Universe, where laws were manifest and time flowed slower, he would still feel there was a considerable chance.

"Don't worry, teacher. I will definitely break through to the Immortal level. I still have to help teacher get revenge!" Su Heng felt Mother Ancestor Honored One's worry and patted his chest, saying with a smile.

Mother Ancestor Honored One's heart warmed slightly, but his worry did not dissipate much. However, since Su Heng had his own plans, he couldn't interfere too much. After a moment of silence, he continued.

"50,000 years! If you haven't broken through to the Immortal level within 50,000 years, you must go to the Initial Universe, and I will personally guide you!"

Su Heng thought about his plan and then nodded in agreement, "Alright!"

50,000 years was enough time for him to accomplish many things!

Seeing that Su Heng had agreed, Mother Ancestor breathed a sigh of relief. She had truly feared her disciple would continue to be stubborn.

Although it might have wasted fifty thousand years, the next few tens of thousands of years in the Initial Universe would be equivalent to hundreds of thousands of years in the Primal Universe!

Coupled with the company's help, there was a great hope of breaking through to the Immortal stage.

"Since that's the case, then go to the Extraterritorial Battlefield and continue your adventures. However, be careful not to go to the Star Tower lightly. If you really want to go, wait until after you break through to Immortal; it won't be too late then."

Mother Ancestor reminded Su Heng again before he left.

With Su Heng's current strength, barely at the King-level, the dangers in the Extraterritorial Battlefield were not too great. However, there were still a few places that were extremely dangerous even for those at the King-level!

The protagonist couldn't stay in Chaos City indefinitely due to his previous potential. But now, with the Virtual Universe Company's backing, he could continuously travel to the Initial Universe. It wasn't that the protagonist didn't want to go to the Initial Universe before.
