Ch. 804Secrets

Luo Yuan continued cultivating in a secret base, adapting his abilities while keeping his identity and intentions hidden from the factions monitoring him. Outside the base, the Universe Controller who had made him an Inheritor realized he could no longer contact him, while Luo Yuan hoped to earn admission to a higher-ranking base and uncover the universe’s secrets.

  • Luo Yuan assessed the base as a low-ranking training ground and used its diverse geniuses’ combat methods to develop abilities suited to the universe’s rules.
  • Luo Yuan understood that the factions were testing his mindset and investigating whether he was an outsider Inheritor, so he avoided contacting his Universe Controller and kept a low profile.

Ch. 806Competition

Luo Yuan trained at increasingly advanced bases, using their competitions to improve his combat strength and conceal his identity. After reaching a Creator God-level base populated by exceptional Hunyuan Lords, he suspected the universe was secretly obtaining resources and resolved to investigate.

  • Luo Yuan learned how ordinary fighters, commanders, and higher-level powerhouses shaped battles between universes, and continued cultivating while hiding among local geniuses.
  • He used battles at the base to test his methods, improve his combat ability, and win every selection competition to gain access to higher-level training and information.
  • After extended testing, Luo Yuan was transported to a Creator God-level base, where fewer than twenty Hunyuan Lords each had the strength to defeat Creator God-level powerhouses.
  • Luo Yuan concluded that the opposing universe might be nurturing Universe Controller-level geniuses, but questioned how its factions could afford their training after much of its resources had been taken.
  • Luo Yuan decided to uncover where the factions were obtaining resources, believing the information could be valuable.

Ch. 807Opportunity

Luo Yuan considered why he had entered the controlled independent universe: its vacant advancement slots offered a better path to becoming a Dominator, but the local factions were determined to stop outside Inheritors from reaching Creator God status. Having reached a training base for Hunyuan-level beings, he anticipated a dangerous final trial while remaining wary of the universe’s hidden defenses.

  • Luo Yuan concluded that becoming a Creator God in this universe could help him improve his understanding of Cosmic Rules and eventually compete to become its Dominator.

  • Luo Yuan learned that the universe’s origin will could mobilize the power of the entire universe to resist outsiders who threatened its origin.

Ch. 808The test

Luo Yuan reasoned that the base’s tests were meant to identify loyal geniuses for its final assessment and core training base, while he planned to use this universe as a path to the Dominator Realm.

  • A light transported Luo Yuan and the million gathered geniuses to a strange platform surrounded by shattered celestial bodies.
  • Luo Yuan found that the cosmic rules of his former worlds did not apply and concluded they had entered a separate, badly damaged universe.
  • Luo Yuan realized the weakened rules would let the visiting geniuses wield greater strength than the native powerhouses, making the other outsiders their greatest threat.

Ch. 810Controller

Ch. 811Laws

Ch. 813Blue Star

Luo Yuan chose Blue Star as the starting point for his mortalization assessment, where he would have to grow without using his original powers. He viewed the trial as a chance to rebuild his foundations and left himself in a world where strength and resources determined status.

  • Luo Yuan chose Blue Star, a low-level planet in a damaged universe, because its human inhabitants resembled Earthlings and its resources could support cultivation.
  • Luo Yuan reflected that he had become strong mainly through his own efforts and decided that relying on himself was more practical than nurturing the human experts who had followed him.
  • Luo Yuan accepted that using any of his original power during the assessment would end his eligibility and erase his memories of the trial.

Ch. 816The past

He began the assessment by deliberately limiting his displayed strength to that of a third-rank Warrior Apprentice so he could attract useful attention without revealing his secrets.

After earning Warrior status, Luo Yuan rejected the factions seeking to recruit him and planned to gather resources independently so he could develop his techniques and advance.
