Chaos and Great Axe Talk

Moments later, the three Gatekeeper atop the mountain revived.

The Bullhead said, "Your Gulanxiu, your Soul Attack is truly powerful. Although it was only a momentary lapse in concentration, it completely disrupted our encirclement! While Your Highness's move may have limited power against stronger opponents, it is remarkably effective against a siege!"

The Ape Man beside him exclaimed, "Yes! We've been through countless ages, and this is the first time I've accidentally killed an old bull!"

The Snake Woman's eyes gleamed with admiration as she said, "Your Highness is truly formidable! Although your Law Comprehension is similar to ours, your willpower is at least a whole level higher. To combine your willpower with the Law to unleash such a powerful Soul Attack! Our defeat was not unjust!"

Gulanxiu shook his head and said, "I just took a shortcut! Generally speaking, if you can pass through Heavenly Mountain, you can probably pass the Sixteenth Layer Sky Bridge, but with my current strength, I might not be able to pass the Sixteenth Layer. It's just that the three of you happen to be countered by me! Alright everyone! I'll take my leave now! See you at Heavenly Mountain, our Realm Lord Level!"

As he spoke, Gulanxiu's consciousness left the Virtual Universe.

By this time, news of Gulanxiu's breakthrough of the Domain Lord- level Heavenly Mountain had already spread among the circles of Universe Venerable and above. This was not too surprising to the Venerable who had been paying attention to Gulanxiu! After all, they had all seen the battle videos of Gulanxiu's previous victories against Alien Race races! They were no strangers to Gulanxiu's various methods.

However, the Venerable who hadn't paid much attention to Gulanxiu were quite taken aback when they heard the news. Gulanxiu's potential was already enough to catch their attention, and as long as he didn't perish, he would almost certainly become one of them!

At the same time, they felt very sorry that Gulanxiu could not become the master of the universe! Unfortunately, these people were powerless to help Gulanxiu.

At this moment, on the Original Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company, the Yunmiao Estate Planet, a majestic Dragon-Man Race suddenly descended. If anyone familiar with Human Race powerhouses were here, they would surely recognize this figure as none other Dragon Walk Lord.

Yunmiao bowed to the imposing figure and said, "Teacher! What brings you here?"

The Dragon Walk Lord nodded to Yunmiao and said, "Just now, a Lord-level member of the Axe Fighting Arena's Axe Secret Realm Domain Lord successfully passed through Heavenly Mountain. What are your thoughts on this?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Yunmiao's eyes as she said, "Gulanxiu actually made it through Heavenly Mountain! I barely made it to the top with my strong will, but I didn't have a chance at all. Gulanxiu actually made it through. At least at the Domain Lord level, I'm not as good as him!"

After hearing Yunmiao's words, the Dragon Walk Lord nodded secretly. Although his little disciple's cultivation speed was not bad, it was not top-notch. However, her special state of mind and strong will made her unmoved by external things. This was the reason why the Dragon Walk Lord took her as a disciple!

The Dragon Walk Lord nodded and said, "Gulanxiu is indeed quite talented! It's a pity he didn't seize the opportunity before. Now that you've broken through to the Realm Lord level, I will bestow upon you an opportunity!"

As he spoke, the Dragon Walk Lord waved his hand, and Yunmiao and the Dragon Walk Lord vanished from the planet.

Yunmiao and the Dragon Walk Lord instantly appeared in the Dragon Walk Lord' Divine Kingdom. Before them stood a vine plant hundreds of thousands of meters long, with seven-colored light surging across it, and flowers of various colors blooming continuously on it.

The Dragon Walk Lord said, "This vine is called the Seven-Colored Mandala, a top-tier Special Life in the universe. Its Gene Multiplier is a full 1,500 times! Most importantly, it can also give birth to two clones with a Gene Multiplier not exceeding its own. I obtained it when I was exploring the Universe Secret Realm. Now that you have reached the Peak World Lord, you can already possess this Seven-Colored Mandala."

After a pause, the Dragon Walk Lord continued, "While your cultivation speed will increase to some extent after possession, the difficulty of breaking through to Immortal will also increase. You will need to reach the comprehension of the 20th level of the Sky Bridge within ten million epochs of your soul's lifespan to break through. If you are confident, then this Seven-Colored Mandala will be given to you for possession!"

Yunmiao nodded firmly and said, "Thank you, teacher! I will certainly live up to your expectations!"

The Dragon Walk Lord nodded and continued, "This Seven-Colored Mandala is extremely precious! Although it's from my own collection, there are only a handful of Special Life of this level in the entire Human Race. Therefore, after you possess it, you must at least become Top-tier Universe Overlord. Only in this way will you avoid being criticized by other universe lords!"

Yunmiao said firmly, "Teacher, rest assured! This disciple will do my utmost!"

The Dragon Walk Lord nodded and said nothing more. At this moment, Yunmiao closed her eyes, and white light emanated from her body, which then slowly gathered at the center of her brow.

Suddenly, a bright light shone from between Yunmiao's brows! A blinding white light shot out and landed on the seven-colored vines, and at the same time, Yunmiao's body slumped to the ground.

The Seven-Colored Mandala suddenly began to struggle violently! It was Yunmiao's soul that had suddenly entered and awakened its sleeping soul. Unfortunately, it had been asleep for countless years, and its soul energy was almost depleted. If it weren't for its innate Special Life and Immortal soul, it would have long since decayed and died!

Now that it was at its last gasp, how could it possibly be a match for Yunmiao! After a short while, the vine stopped struggling.

Sensing the Yunmiao soul aura emanating from the Seven-Colored Mandala, the Dragon Walk Lord smiled, then tossed Yunmiao a bottle of blood, saying, "This is the blood of Special Life, Dream Butterfly. This Dream Butterfly looks remarkably similar to our Human Race! And possesses eight hundred times the Gene, making it perfect for you to cultivate an avatar capable of walking among Human Race! You should cultivate this one first! As for the other avatar, I don't have a good choice here; it's up to your own destiny!"

As the Seven-Colored Mandala extended a flower and swallowed the bottle of blood, the Dragon Walk Lord continued, "The Time Flow Rate in this space you are in is one in a thousand. Tell me after you have completed the creation of your clone! The Space Temple of the Shadow Race is about to open, and I have reserved a spot for you. You should have enough time!"

As he spoke, the Dragon Walk Lord vanished from the Divine Kingdom.

What Yunmiao didn't know was that the Dragon Walk Lord was still debating whether to let her possess the Seven-Colored Mandala. After all, Yunmiao's cultivation speed wasn't top-tier among Human Race geniuses. Although she had a strong will and her future achievements wouldn't be low, if she couldn't break through within a thousand epochs after possessing the body, she would have to possess an ordinary life again to break through to Immortal. This would destroy the Core Nucleus of such a Top-tier Special Life, depriving the Human Race of a Top-tier Universe Overlord seed.

Gulanxiu's breakthrough of Heavenly Mountain provoked the Dragon Walk Lord. Although the bet between him and Emperor Yan was not established because Gulanxiu refused to become his disciple, if Gulanxiu could break through to the Venerable before Yunmiao without the Lord of the Universe as his teacher, where would he put his old face?

Losing to Emperor Yan isn't shameful! After all, they are both universe masters of the same level! But if he lost to Gulanxiu himself, then he would truly feel utterly humiliated!

However, given his personality, he couldn't bring himself to do anything against Gulanxiu, so he could only try to strengthen his apprentices.

Given the normal cultivation speed, since Yunmiao has already been surpassed by Gulanxiu, it will be difficult for her to catch up before the Venerable. A strong will means a higher growth ceiling, but it doesn't significantly boost the growth speed!

Therefore, the Dragon Walk Lord had no choice but to bring out the Special Life he had treasured for countless years, hoping that Yunmiao could increase her cultivation speed after possessing the body and break through to the Venerable before Gulanxiu.

Meanwhile, inside the Chaos City Lord's Mansion, the Chaos City Lord was sitting opposite a tall, Savage. There was only one Savage could sit with the Chaos City Lord, and that person was none other than the Human Race strongest being in the universe— the Giant Axe Founder!

The Chaos City Lord addressed the Giant Axe Founder: "Great Axe! Not long ago, four True God of the Beast God Race besieged the Mechanical Race Father God. Although the Mechanical Race Father God escaped safely, this incident served as a wake-up call for us! Beast God Race could besiege the Mechanical Race Father God, they could also besiege you! In the unique environment of the Universe Sea, you might also encounter danger! Therefore, don't leave again after you've returned!"

The Giant Axe Founder nodded and said, "We won't leave yet! We're currently at a disadvantage in our war against the Beast God Race race in the Original Universe. I can resurrect more Universe Venerable in the Original Universe to help you share the burden! The Beast God Race's Divine Body are too large; even before, when we Human Race fought against them at the same level, we always suffered losses!"

A hint of worry flashed in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord as he said, "There are about four thousand of the most precious star fields in the Original Universe universe. Currently, our Human Race occupies 800, the Mechanical Race and the Insect Race each occupy 600, and the rest have been occupied by the Beast God Race. They are still not reconciled. Currently, thirty percent of our Human Race's Universe Venerable and Marquis-level Immortal are recovering their divine power. This cannot continue!"

The Giant Axe Founder nodded and said, "That's right! But even if we can't win, we have to fight! Otherwise, once we give up our core territory, it will be difficult to take it back! At worst, we can join forces with the Insect Race and the Mechanical Race to launch a full-scale war! Destroying a few of their Beast God Race's universe lords should make them stop!"

The Chaos City Lord shook his head and said, "The Insect Race and Mechanical Race are the mortal enemies of our Human Race Human Race. A full-scale war with them is too risky. If they betray us, we will suffer heavy losses! Ultimately, it's because we are weaker! If Master were still here, even if we couldn't gain the upper hand in the Original Universe, we could still kill them so they wouldn't dare enter the Universe Sea, thus achieving a balance!"

The Giant Axe Founder sneered, "Hmph! None of Beast God Race four beastmen are even at the eighth rank! They only rely on their numbers! And they're lucky too! That giant serpent Mengcha actually managed to obtain a Supreme Treasure! If I had a Supreme Treasure, even all four of them together wouldn't be a match for me!"

The Chaos City Lord nodded and said, "That's right! It's precisely because the four True God of the Beast God Race Clan aren't very strong that they won't arouse public resentment! Great Axe, you need to be careful to hide in the Universe Sea. If you really unleash your full power, it might attract the apprehension and suppression of the First Reincarnation Era, the Second Reincarnation Era, and even the Two Great Holy Lands. The Human Race already has a teacher; if you show even more extraordinary potential, you might be targeted!"

The Giant Axe Founder nodded and said, "I understand! Don't worry! I won't reveal my full strength before I obtain the Supreme Treasure!"

"For the sake of Human Race! You've had a tough time!" the Chaos City Lord exclaimed. The Chaos City Lord had known the Giant Axe Founder for countless years and naturally knew the Giant Axe Founder's talent and personality. He knew that if the Giant Axe Founder were allowed to fight to his heart's content, his strength would experience a burst of power in a short time! It was just a pity that because of the burden of Human Race, the Giant Axe Founder had to endure.

Thinking of this, the Chaos City Lord decided not to discuss the topic any further and changed the subject, asking, "What do you think of Gulanxiu, the genius who has recently emerged from the tens of millions of eras?"

Although the Giant Axe Founder had been venturing into the Universe Sea, he also kept a sliver of his consciousness watching over the Human Race. In addition, he possessed the highest authority in the Virtual Universe, so he was fully aware of all the information about Gulanxiu.

After a moment's thought, the Giant Axe Founder spoke up, "Gulanxiu has excellent talent! His opportunities are also quite good! He has the potential to become a super strong person! It's just a pity that he only has one teacher, and without a cosmic master behind him, his path ahead may be a bit more difficult!"

The Chaos City Lord nodded and said, "That's what I think too! But if you're standing behind him, wouldn't his chances of growing stronger be much greater?"

The Giant Axe Founder looked at the Chaos City Lord in astonishment and said, "You want me to take him as my disciple? He has already rejected the Emperor Yan. Even if I intervene, he might not accept me as his master! It's one thing if he rejected the Emperor Yan, since the Emperor Yan's direct lineage is only the Yan God Race Clan. But if he rejects me, I'm afraid the entire Human Race will subtly ostracize him!"

The Chaos City Lord looked at the Giant Axe Founder with a smile in his eyes and said, "Don't worry! I've thought of everything you said! However, you don't necessarily need to make him become your apprentice to guide him! There are other methods!"

The Giant Axe Founder asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

The Chaos City Lord explained, "Gulanxiu's teacher, the Barbarian Hammer King, has cultivated for over a hundred million years and has reached the Peak King. He follows your path of the Three Axes into One, and is one of the most likely King among the Human Race to break through to the Venerable realm. With your guidance, breaking through to the Venerable shouldn't be difficult, which would barely meet your requirements for accepting a disciple. You can accept him as your disciple, and then guide Gulanxiu in the name of your Grandmaster. In this way, Gulanxiu will also be considered part of your lineage, and even the Emperor Yan wouldn't dare to act rashly."

As the chief steward of the Human Race, the Chaos City Lord naturally understood the Emperor Yan's personality. He did indeed admire Gulanxiu, which is why he came up with this method. This way, Gulanxiu not only gained a powerful backer but also avoided having Gulanxiu become someone else's apprentice, thus preserving the Emperor Yan's face. It can be said that the Chaos City Lord went to great lengths for the development of the Human Race!

The Giant Axe Founder hesitated, saying, "Will this work? While the Barbarian Hammer King is decent, he's still a bit lacking as my disciple. All the disciples I've taken in have a sliver of potential to become a Universe Lord. Although no Universe Lord has been born yet, they are all at least High Venerable. I don't see even a trace of that potential in the Barbarian Hammer King!"

The Chaos City Lord advised, "While the Barbarian Hammer King may be lacking, Gulanxiu is quite capable! Since you can't go to the Universe Sea for the time being, you might as well focus on nurturing the next generation! Besides, the Barbarian Hammer King is one of your own people, so it's understandable that you lower your standards for him!"

The Giant Axe Founder nodded and said, "Alright! I'll do it your way! I'll first offer the Supreme Treasure I've acquired to the clan, and then I'll take him as my disciple!"

As he spoke, he walked towards a large hall on the side of the City Lord's Mansion!

At this moment, the Barbarian Hammer King was still cultivating in his mansion, could never have imagined that an incredible opportunity would fall right in front of him.
