I want to break through to Domain Lord

After Chen Ao cleared the Universe Level Tongtian Mountain, he immediately shut off communications with the Virtual Universe.

"Omega, I'm going to spend some time comprehending the laws. Disconnect me from the Virtual Universe!"

"Yes, Master!"

"I should be getting emails from quite a few Universe Overlords and stronger experts, right?"

Clearing the Universe Level Original Tongtian Mountain might not impress the Chaos City Lord, but it would certainly impress the Universe Overlords.

So there would be quite a few people wanting to take him as a disciple.

Of course, he figured there would be no more than ten emails.

Ordinary Venerables weren't even qualified to learn that he had cleared the Tongtian Mountain. At the very least, someone at Venerable Nine Swords' level definitely wouldn't know.

They could only see his results on the Heavenly Bridge.

The Primal Region remained as peaceful as ever. Everyone cultivated as usual, as though nothing had happened.

Chen Ao left his residence in person and walked alone through the Primal Region.

"Your Highness, you've finally come out!"

Chen Ao was such a homebody that, as his guard captain, Angke could count on two hands the number of times he had seen him over the years.

Getting to see Chen Ao even once was no easy feat.

"I came out to clear my head!"

"All right, then I'll stay nearby to protect you, Your Highness!"

Angke didn't disturb Chen Ao, merely following him quietly at a distance.

Angke thought Chen Ao had a bright future, so he intended to work even harder and cling tightly to this promising patron.

Chen Ao was also extremely excited at that moment. Clearing the Tongtian Mountain with fusion laws at the Universe Level was his best chance to show the Chaos City Lord what he could do.

If he missed this opportunity, would he have to challenge the Domain Lord Level Tongtian Mountain?

It wasn't that he couldn't clear it, but his law comprehension was a little lacking-unless he continued comprehending the laws.

Then a Law Mark would appear, exposing him to public scrutiny.

This has to work!

He didn't know whether the Chaos City Lord had emailed him, so he was anxious too.

He couldn't settle his thoughts.

"Senior! Senior!"

Just then, Luo Feng walked over.

Luo Feng hadn't seen Chen Ao in person for a long time. Their last meeting had been fifty years ago in the Blood Luo World.

For Luo Feng, who had actually lived for less than a hundred years, those fifty years were half his life.

"Luo Feng? You look like you need something."

"It's like this, Senior. I feel there's little point in staying at the Universe Level any longer, so I want to break through to the Domain Lord Level!"

He had also asked his teacher, True Yan King, who had told him to break through if he could. There was no need to linger at the Universe Level for too long.

Without anyone to compare himself to, Luo Feng would certainly have broken through straightaway.

But seeing someone as powerful as Chen Ao still at the Universe Level left him a little unsettled, so he wanted Chen Ao's opinion.

Perhaps there was some special mystery to the Universe Level?

Although Chen Ao wasn't exactly reliable, he probably wouldn't harm him. On the contrary, he had given Luo Feng plenty of pointers and good things. Those gene-enhancing items in particular had helped him enormously.

"If you can break through, then do it. Every realm opens up a whole new world. What you accumulate at the Universe Level isn't that important to a Domain Lord, and it's hardly worth mentioning to a World Lord!"

Luo Feng nodded at Chen Ao's words. True Yan King had said the same thing.

"Then, Senior, why haven't you broken through?"

Chen Ao said quietly, "I plan to build up my foundation a little more..."

Luo Feng was speechless.

Senior, don't you think you're contradicting yourself?

"All right. Since you say so too, Senior, I'll go break through to Domain Lord!"

Of course, Luo Feng hadn't really come to seek Chen Ao's opinion. He had already prepared himself to break through long ago.

His main reason for coming to Chen Ao was to find out whether the Universe Level held some special secret.

Since it didn't, Chen Ao's opinion wasn't actually all that important.

Luo Feng wasn't someone who lacked a mind of his own.

Watching Luo Feng leave, Chen Ao sighed. Was it time for him to break through to the Domain Lord Level too?

But wouldn't breaking through to Domain Lord mean being sent away on an assignment?

That would be so dangerous. He might even get assassinated outright.

Even if the Alien Race didn't assassinate him, what if the people he investigated as an Inspector thought he would threaten their interests and found an opportunity to kill him?

Who would believe him if he volunteered that he wouldn't threaten their interests?

So breaking through to Domain Lord was dangerous.

Soon, powerful fluctuations from an advancement came from Luo Feng's direction.

Clearly, Luo Feng had broken through to Domain Lord.

"Luo Feng should be sent away soon, right? Still, none of that has anything to do with me!"

Another two days passed, and the Virtual Universe had already arranged for Luo Feng to be assigned to his home region.

Only then did Chen Ao open his emails.

Sure enough, quite a few Universe Overlords, and even the Tian Shi Palace Master, had sent emails expressing their willingness to take him as a disciple.

Chen Ao looked through them carefully and found Venerable Guiyi's email.

The email said nothing about accepting him as a disciple. Instead, it said that the Chaos City Lord wanted to meet him and asked him to make a trip to Chaos City!

"Whew, this is the one!"

It wasn't surprising that the Chaos City Lord hadn't directly offered to take him as a disciple. But since he had taken the initiative to summon him, he probably had that intention.

He was human. As long as there was no issue with that, the Chaos City Lord definitely wouldn't harm him.

As for whether the Chaos City Lord would set any requirements...

Such as mastering the first volume within three thousand years?

Chen Ao's answer was: Give me three years!

All right, that timeframe isn't a sure bet.

The more modest choice would be thirty years. That was a safer timeframe.

Without hesitation, Chen Ao left the Primal Secret Region and headed straight for Chaos City.

With his status in the Primal Region, getting to Chaos City wasn't much of a problem. It only took some time.

Soon, Chen Ao reached the Inner Mansion of Chaos City.

"This is a restricted area of the Inner Mansion. No unauthorized entry!"

As soon as he approached the inner city, the Undying guards stopped him and told him to leave at once.

"Honored Undying, the Chaos City Lord summoned me here for an audience. Without his orders, how would I dare come here?"

The Undying guards nodded at that. Unless someone had lost his mind, he wouldn't dare do such a thing.

The Undying guards quickly reported his arrival.

Then a being with an extraordinarily powerful aura walked out.

"You must be Chen Ao? Teacher ordered me to wait here. Come with me to see him!"

It was Venerable Guiyi who spoke.

Since he wasn't sure whether the Chaos City Lord intended to accept Chen Ao as a disciple, Venerable Guiyi didn't introduce himself.

If the Chaos City Lord didn't accept him, they wouldn't be on the same level, and there would be no need for them even to become acquainted.

"Thank you, Venerable!" Chen Ao respectfully followed behind Venerable Guiyi.

As they walked, Venerable Guiyi said, "Teacher has three clones. The one presiding over Chaos City is the one who governs slaughter, so you must be respectful and must not offend him!"

Chen Ao respectfully acknowledged his warning.

"Understood!"

The Chaos Ruins!

It was a secluded courtyard. Outside stood a stone tablet engraved with the words "Chaos Ruins"!

"Teacher is inside!" Venerable Guiyi said, leading Chen Ao in.
