Clearing the Second Level

Hearing Xu Qing's words, Babata felt it wouldn't be easy, "King Zhen Yan is a powerful figure who has been granted the title of King Rank, and he might not even be willing to accept Luo Feng as his disciple."

"It's alright, I trust my brother-in-law. As long as he's the most outstanding guy in the Nine Universe School, there won't be any problems. Besides, if that King Zhen Yan didn't think my brother-in-law was good, he definitely wouldn't have given me advice."

"Since he gave advice, it means he still has some expectations for his brother-in-law," Xu Qing analyzed confidently.

Babata thought about it and agreed. If the King Zhen Yan hadn't noticed Luo Feng and thought he was a promising talent, he definitely wouldn't have sent an email asking him to study the secret technique <Drifting Blood>.

If Luo Feng could really become a disciple of the King Zhen Yan, he would avoid many detours in his cultivation. With Xu Qing's assistance, his improvement speed would be like a rocket.

"Xu Qing, what about you? Wouldn't it be better if you also took a master from the Universe School as your teacher?" Babata asked.

Xu Qing shook her head. "No, I'm a child who loves freedom. To me, without freedom, it's like being a bird without wings—it's too terrifying."

Seeing Xu Qing's serious expression, Babata rolled her eyes. "It's just that he's unruly," she thought.

"Since you don't have a teacher, you'll have to keep a low profile," Babata said.

"Being low-key is fine, I've always been low-key, okay? As the saying goes, 'build one road while secretly crossing another,' I just need to develop my strength quietly, occasionally taking advantage of the situation, perfect," Xu Qing chuckled.

Babata had no doubt about this; the guy's comprehension was indeed excellent, and he had almost mastered the Origin Law on his own.

Actually, it's good that Xu Qing is secretly developing; she can become a huge, invisible help to Luo Feng in the future.

The two worked together perfectly, one in the open and one in the shadows.

"By the way, Luo Feng asked me to remind you not to forget to cross the Heavenly Bridge. Quite a few people have already crossed the first level," Babata said.

So far, besides Bolan, Rong Jun, and Luo Feng, Qianshui, Galaixi, Ai Chen, and Wuka have all passed through the first level.

Perhaps it won't be long before they can attempt the second level, while Bolan has already passed the third level and is far ahead.

"No rush, no rush, let's wait a bit longer," Xu Qing shook his head, not in a hurry.

"Alright, just don't forget anyway," Babata reminded them, as long as Xu Qing was definitely no worse than them.

After a pause, it asked again, "Xu Qing, are your Origin Law almost complete?"

"To be precise, it's fast, but not that fast yet. We need to catch up with the Origin Law of Time first, as we still have a long way to go in terms of the Origin Law of Time," Xu Qing pondered.

Babata thought to himself, "What a pervert! He's really planning something big!"

He wants all ten Origin Law, and he wants to master them all at the same time. That's incredibly awesome.

Not only that, Xu Qing is also studying the fusion of laws, because through the cracks in the universe, he can not only enhance all his Origin Law, but also comprehend the fusion of laws, and not just ordinary fusion.

Soon, it was the tenth year since Xu Qing and his group arrived in the Initial Universe.

"That's about enough. I should get through the first level of the Heavenly Bridge and clear the second level while I'm at it," Xu Qing stretched and then arrived at the Tongtian Bridge Plane.

"Hey, it's you, you rascal! Why did it take you so long to get here?" Bafen was surprised to see Xu Qing.

Xu Qing rolled her eyes. "Guardian, who are you calling a clown?"

"What do you think? So, you've finally remembered you want to cross the Heavenly Bridge?" Bafen laughed.

"There's nothing I can do, they're too greedy. They all managed to get through the second layer, they're like animals. What did I do to deserve this by just lying down?" Xu Qing said indignantly.

Bafen's lips twitched as he listened. "You're lying there and you still have the nerve to say that? Who's the problem here?"

"Alright, Guardian, wish me good luck, I'm off," Xu Qing waved his hand and walked towards the Heavenly Bridge.

Bafen watched Xu Qing walk towards the Heavenly Bridge and quickly grabbed him, "Hey, hey, that's the Nine Universe Heavenly Bridge, not the Universe Heavenly Bridge. You're going the wrong way."

"No way, this is the Universe Heavenly Bridge! What's that Nine Universe Heavenly Bridge over there? I still remember what that bridge looked like," Xu Qing said seriously.

Bafen was exasperated. He was the Guardian this place; how could he not recognize which bridge it was?

"Be serious," Bafen said, pulling Xu Qing along as he entered the Universe Heavenly Bridge.

"Oh, so I really was mistaken. Thank you, Guardian," Xu Qing said before going inside.

Bafen's lips twitched. "This kid's talking weirdly."

However, he became curious again. It had been ten years. Would Xu Qing still return the same way he did last time?

He thought it was unlikely; at least they could all pass the first level. After all, many geniuses from the Heavenly Zone had passed the first level, and Xu Qing was, after all, a genius from the Tai Chu Zone, so he would definitely have no problem.

At this moment, Xu Qing had arrived at the end of the first level, before a cloud of mist.

"Please choose your opponent: Warrior, Controller, Illusionist," the voice announced.

"Forget it, let's keep the Controller," Xu Qing said.

Soon, a masked man similar to the one before appeared, with a similar style to Xu Qing, but with different weapons. He used Telepathic Weapon, including a shuttle and Flying Dagger.

"Come on," Xu Qing thought, and the silk threads fluttered and flowed around him.

At the same time, the masked man also moved, soaring into the sky on a flying shuttle, then flying towards Xu Qing. Flying Dagger swirled around him, then flew out one after another, drawing graceful arcs in the air, their cold light flashing.

Moreover, the Flying Dagger seemed to fly at varying speeds, creating a sense of temporal distortion.

Bite!

The next second, the Flying Dagger collided with the silk thread, scattering dazzling Mars, and the Flying Dagger was undoubtedly deflected.

With several more crisp sounds, the masked man's Flying Dagger were all blocked by the silk threads and sent flying.

However, the masked man immediately regained control of the Flying Dagger and continued his attack on Xu Qing, constantly changing positions to make the most of the flexibility and cunning of Mental Master Controller.

The amplification of the Flying Dagger by the Origin Law of Time makes Flying Dagger attack trajectories even more unpredictable.

However, no matter how the masked man manipulated the Flying Dagger to attack, Xu Qing's silk threads defended against them flawlessly.

"Your skill in manipulating Flying Dagger isn't very good. You've only reached the threshold of the Origin Law of Space, which is too weak," Xu Qing raised an eyebrow.

Xu Qing was very disappointed that the other party was only at this level.

In this case, the masked man is like a mosquito buzzing next to his ear—it's good at finding a way in, but it's completely useless.

"Boring, so boring," Xu Qing was about to yawn.

"Forget it, let's end it here," Xu Qing thought, and the silk threads shot out, like countless slender tentacles, transforming into an inescapable cage that locked the masked man in the air until he completely lost all room to move.

Even so, the masked man did not give up his attack and continued to use his Flying Dagger to strike Xu Qing.

Xu Qing glanced at them, then his body moved like a supple vine, making astonishing movements to perfectly evade all the Flying Dagger, as if they had grazed his skin.

At the same time, the masked man was also Strangulation in mid-air.

Xu Qing yawned and retracted the silk thread. "What should we choose for the next level? Illusionists can only fool children. We should choose from Warrior and Controller. How about we try Warrior?"

Xu Qing didn't even need to use his Origin Law against this opponent on the first level; they were too weak.

By manipulating the threads with his Spiritual Force, he crushed his opponent.

Ahead, the clouds dispersed, revealing the entrance to the second level.

Xu Qing went inside and arrived at the end of the second floor, where there was still a cloud of mist.

After the voice asked, Xu Qing replied, "Warrior."

Soon, a masked man appeared, carrying two War Blade on his back, coldly looking at Xu Qing, "Make your move."

Xu Qing snapped his fingers, and the silk threads flowed in the air, shimmering faintly.

"You are the Controller," the masked man said, clearly surprised.

"Hmm, but I'm playing with silk threads. Come on, let me see how strong Warrior is," Xu Qing beckoned with his finger.

The masked man sneered, "My wish will be granted!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he drew two War Blade from behind him, stomped his foot, and transformed into a blur as he charged toward Xu Qing.

Clang!

A chilling flash of light erupted, the icy blade striking the woven web of silk threads, unable to advance an inch.

The next second, the masked man created six Phantom Body, launching simultaneous attacks on Xu Qing from six directions.

"Oh, Phantom Body, six of them. Even the Controller of the first level haven't used Phantom Body before," Xu Qing said in surprise, but he didn't move. The silk threads had already reached out to meet them.

As it approached the Phantom Body, the silk threads were clearly affected in some way, and their speed slowed down somewhat.

However, the silk thread quickly broke free from that influence.

Boom!

All the Phantom Body were blasted away and exploded in mid-air. The masked man's true form was astonished, "Such immense power! This Mental Power Amplitude..."

As it spoke, it could already see threads slicing towards him, their cold light sharper than a blade.

Clang!

Mars flew as the masked man, pressed down by the threads, was forced backward, his feet rubbing together and creating sparks on the bridge.

The masked man was shocked. Although the amplitude of psychic power could be more than three times that of Strength Amplitude, this person was only at the Universe Level. How could his Mental Power Amplitude be so high?

This is Xu Qing's Spiritual Force, the amplitude of which has long surpassed the basic limit of one hundred, reaching nearly two hundred and sixty.

This also means that Xu Qing's Strength Amplitude reached about eighty.

"Ah!" the masked man roared, brandishing his twin blades, unleashing dazzling sword light as he relentlessly bombarded the silk threads.

The flashes of the blade contained the power of time and space, appearing sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes numerous, sometimes few, even affecting the surrounding area.

However, the more it bombarded, the more it discovered that the opponent's silk threads were like an impenetrable wall, causing its hands to ache from the shock.

"Besides Phantom Body, do you have any other decent methods? Do you have any powerful secret techniques? If so, your level of the Origin Law of Space is only slightly higher than that of the first level people. You've just gone from an ant to a fly," Xu Qing yawned.

Upon hearing this, the masked man flew into a rage, yelling, "Kill!"

The next second, it split into six more Phantom Body, attacking Xu Qing's main body from both sides.

"Truly hopeless," Xu Qing shook his head.

Sizzle!

The silk threads sliced through the air, severing all the Phantom Body in half, and then wrapped around the masked man's true body, cutting it into pieces like a cruel instrument of torture.

Throughout the entire process, it was completely unaffected by the other party's Origin Law of Space.

No, it should be said that Xu Qing manipulated the silk threads with absolute brute force, breaking through the influence of these two Origin Law in a simple and brutal way.

"Aww, that's a wrap. The first and second floors were a piece of cake," Xu Qing yawned.

The opponents at this second level are only slightly more advanced in their Origin Law than those at the first level; they have barely reached the entry-level.

However, Xu Qing guessed that the opponents on the third level would be beyond the beginner level, and the combined power of the Origin Law of Time and the Origin Law of Space would definitely be much stronger.

"Going back," Xu Qing yawned, flying back.

On the island, Bafen saw a familiar figure slowly flying back, his expression strange.

Just now, he received a message from Xu Qing through the second level of the Heavenly Bridge.

Otherwise, he would assume that Xu Qing had failed the test again and fly back along the same route.

"This kid passed the first and second levels of the Heavenly Bridge in one go, just like Bolan did back then," Bafen thought with some disbelief.

Xu Qing dared to choose the Universe Chaos Stele with Bolan, and both of them crossed two levels of the Heavenly Bridge on their first try. It seems that he is quite impressive as well.

The other geniuses all climbed through the levels one by one, and not many even made it to the second level.

Bolan is still far ahead, having already reached the fourth level.

"Hi, Guardian, we meet again," Xu Qing said, waving to Bafen as he landed.

Bafen's lips twitched. "What do you mean 'we met again'? It's been less than half an hour."

"But you're quite the hidden talent, kid. You made it through two levels in one go. You can't possibly make it through the third level too, can you?" Bafen looked him up and down.

"Yes, as long as you, Lord Guardian, help me modify the records, I can handle anything, not just the third floor, but even the thirtieth floor," Xu Qing chuckled.

"Dream on," Bafen rolled his eyes. Was he that kind of person?

"Guardian, I'm going back. I was badly beaten during the trial, and my whole body aches. I need to rest for a while," Xu Qing said before leaving.

Bafen was speechless. He realized that this kid didn't even blush when he lied.

"I think you just want to stay in bed for a while longer," even Bafen thought.

He found Xu Qing, this genius, quite strange, giving off an unpredictable vibe.

"Never mind, as long as he cleared the second level, that's fine. Let's send it out to motivate the other geniuses," Bafen immediately transmitted Xu Qing's message about clearing the second level to those geniuses.

He had always done so according to the instructions given to him.

Virtual Universe, Tai Chu Zone.

Xu Qing appeared in the manor, Lena immediately came to greet him, "Your Highness, how did the Heavenly Bridge challenge go?"

"Easy peasy, we've already passed the second floor," Xu Qing said lazily, pulling out a deck chair and lying down.

Lena was surprised; she hadn't just passed the first level, but the second.

He cleared two levels in one go, just like Bolan. In this way, Xu Qing's number of levels on the Heavenly Bridge has caught up with the main group.

"Your Highness, you've been hiding your strength?" Lena asked.

She found it strange that Xu Qing couldn't even get past the first level before, but ten years later, he passed the second level directly.

If she hadn't frequently seen Xu Qing sunbathing in the Virtual Universe, she would have thought Xu Qing was working hard in the Initial Universe.

"Don't ask, it's a secret," Xu Qing said, holding up a finger and waving it.

Lena was exasperated. What's so secret about this?

However, since Xu Qing didn't say anything, she couldn't press him for details and could only keep her questions to herself.
