Jiang Li, his white robes stained with blood, his eyes flashing like lightning, looked up at the sky above, where five terrifying figures were reflected in his pupils.

He wasn't quite sure who the other person was...

But the overwhelming pressure that made even their souls tremble undoubtedly demonstrated the terrifying level of their cultivation!

"Jiang Li!"

One of them.

The man in dark red battle armor, with a scaly tail, spoke, "Your trial in the Illusion Sea is over!"

He had two fiery red horns on his forehead and strange, mysterious patterns on his face, making him look quite ferocious. However, his eyes were as calm as the boundless starry sky, which made people feel calm involuntarily.

"It's over?"

"Aren't you the test on the last island?"

Jiang Li was stunned, but immediately realized the identity of the terrifyingly powerful figure before him. How similar his appearance was to that of the <Universe Chaos Tablet>!

But he couldn't possibly be the Original Ancestor!

The Original Ancestor was an existence suppressed by the Primordial Universe; how could it possibly appear in the Illusion Sea?

Then there's only one possibility... He was the Original Ancestor's personal disciple!

"Jiang Li greets the Chaos City Lord!"

Even when facing the Universe Master, Jiang Li bowed slightly!

His inherent rebellious spirit wouldn't allow him to kneel or submit!

"Your performance is excellent, your circumstances are extraordinary, and your willpower is unprecedented..."

The Chaos City Lord looked at Jiang Li, who was bowing slightly, and didn't mind his attitude. He smiled and said, "It's really impressive that you were able to reach the end of the Illusion Sea in one go with your ninth-level Stellar Level strength..."

Would you be willing to become my personal disciple?

Upon hearing this...

Jiang Li took a deep breath, just as he was about to speak.

"No need to rush to answer!"

The Lord Huangjian interrupted Jiang Li, revealing what he thought was a benevolent smile, and said, "Your teacher, Venerable Wanshan, is a Venerable under my command..."

" In the Henglan Galaxy, when you were attacked by Alien Race, it was I who came to your aid."

"Huang Jian, isn't it unnecessary to extend this favor?"

Before the Lord Huangjian could finish speaking, the bald, fat man interrupted, "It's all for the revival of the human race, so why don't we just get straight to the point?"

"Jiang Li, I am Peng Gong Lord, the supreme authority of the Universe Galaxy Bank. Would you be willing to become my disciple?!"

"You don't need to leave Virtual Universe Company; moreover, the Universe Galaxy Bank will dedicate resources to nurturing you!"

Upon hearing this...

Jiang Li's eyes flickered slightly.

As one of humanity's five giants, the Universe Galaxy Bank may be slightly weaker than the Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Dojo, but in terms of resources, they are definitely not much different!

Moreover...

He is now affiliated with the Virtual Universe Company, and given the magnanimity of the Chaos City Lord, he would never kick him out of the Virtual Universe Company simply because he became Peng Gong Lord's student.

"My conditions are the same as those of Peng Gong Lord!"

The Qing Dong Lord said with a smile.

Jiang Li listened quietly.

Sometimes having too many choices isn't necessarily a good thing.

The last Virtual Gold Lord remained silent; his target was not Jiang Li, but Hong, who was the first to break through the fifteen Illusion Sea Islands.

Compared to Hong, Jiang Li is far too extraordinary.

This is not to say that Jiang Li is inferior to Hong, but his defying the heavens is beyond measure, making his chances of falling extremely high.

after all.

Throughout countless ages, only two unparalleled geniuses have ever been assassinated by Universe Venerable.

The former is the already fallen Kedi, while the latter is the fortunate Jiang Li.

But if Venerable Wanshan hadn't foreseen this, Jiang Li might not have survived the ambush...

"I..."

At this moment, Jiang Li hesitated.

Although every strong person comes from weakness, most of them will have a group of teachers.

After all, teachers have limited abilities. For the sake of the development of the Human Race in the universe, we cannot limit each person to having only one teacher, especially those with exceptional talent and potential, who should not be held back.

"All four are among the pinnacle of human existence..."

"I can't decide for the time being..."

After a brief moment of contemplation, Jiang Li spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly...

Upon hearing this...

The four Universe Master exchanged a glance and made a judgment in their hearts.

Good lad.

While maintaining unwavering resolve, they also understand the importance of strategic retreat.

After all, both sides are represented by the Universe Master. Choosing one side or the other will save face for the other three parties to some extent.

It's not fair to blame Jiang Li, but it's also unlikely that everyone can feel at ease about it.

"Then you should think it over carefully."

The Chaos City Lord's expression remained unchanged upon hearing Jiang Li's answer; he still smiled and said, "Give me an answer within thirty years."

That's all.

Without further hesitation, the Chaos City Lord vanished from Jiang Li's sight.

Having heard the Chaos City Lord's statement, the Lords of Peng Gong Lord, Lord Huangjian, and Qing Dong Lord could no longer make any further promises to Jiang Li him with the same time limit and departed from the twenty-first island of the Illusion Sea one after another...

After the major Universe Master left, Jiang Li finally breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew from the Illusion Sea.

"Call!"

"Who is this Jiang Li...?"

"Didn't they select any teachers?"

After the five Universe Master suddenly left, the Black Scale Armor old man at the far end finally awoke from his terror.

"If I had known this would happen, I would have just replied to Venerable Guiyi's email directly."

After exiting the Virtual Universe, Jiang Li sat on the rooftop of his residence in Chaos City, feeling somewhat helpless.

to be honest.

For an ordinary genius, thirty years is nothing more than a period of arduous training.

But for Jiang Li, it was a completely different concept!

You need to know.

Even excluding the creation of his clones, Jiang Li, who lived two lives, only managed to live for a mere thirty years.

With the four Universe Master openly courting him, and under their intense gazes, Jiang Li found it difficult to make a wise choice.

At this time...

"Jiang Li, your teacher Venerable Wanshan, has requested a call..."

Babata's voice rang out from Jiang Li's consciousness.

Virtual Universe Network, Rainphase Mountain, Manor No. 118 in the Primordial Region.

"La!"

A virtual screen appeared on the living room wall, displaying a call request.

"Connected."

Jiang Li appeared and gave an order.

The screen flickered slightly.

Then, the figure of Venerable Wanshan appeared on the giant screen.

"Teacher."

Jiang Li bowed slightly.

"Haha, Jiang Li, you're making a bigger scene each time."

Venerable Wanshan smiled broadly and said, "Is it possible that a Universe Master has extended an olive branch to you?"

"Yes, teacher."

Jiang Li nodded slightly.

"Hmm, you are exceptionally talented, not only comprehending various Origin Law, but also managing to traverse the Illusion Sea in one go. Your unwavering will makes you highly likely to become Immortal..."

Venerable Wanshan had always had great confidence in Jiang Li, and now that news of the Illusion Sea had spread, he was even more certain.

"They'll see you have a bright future and will definitely be eager to take you under their wing as their personal disciple..."

"After all, among the powerful human race in the universe, the master-disciple relationship is the most stable."

Upon hearing this...

Jiang Li understood.

Firstly, the strong have unlimited lifespans, so after all their relatives have passed away with the passage of time, the closest relationships remain with their master and disciple.

Respect for teachers and the teachings of elders has always been an important sentiment passed down through humankind.

After all, teachers are guides on the path of cultivation. Unless they are cruel, ruthless, or evil people, most people will respect and cherish their kindness.
