Zhang Junbao slowly opened his eyes. The Chaos City Lord and the Demon Lord Luan Shen in front of him exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.
"You've finally reached the realm of World Lord, congratulations, Junior Brother," the Demon Lord Luan Shen said with a smile.
The Chaos City Lord nodded slightly in congratulations.
"He's just World Lord; compared to you senior brothers, he's utterly insignificant."
"Hahaha, how long have you been cultivating? Such a terrifying speed of cultivation is something to be proud of. We have also accumulated over countless epochs to reach our current level."
I just noticed that the transformation of the World Power within you is an anomaly. Is there anything unusual about it?
"When my Spiritual Force and the Origin Force merged to give birth to the first World Power, the power of the Universe Origin suddenly surged in and forcibly merged with it."
But I didn't feel anything unusual. It's just that my Life Core has become much stronger, and my Internal World is incredibly stable, which seems like a good thing.
" The Universe Origin forcibly merged? We have never seen such a phenomenon before. The universe holds countless mysteries, and even we cannot fully comprehend them."
Since you haven't felt anything wrong, then it should be fine.
" The Internal World is the source of World Lord's power. Internal World is stable, your World Projection will inevitably be powerful, and your strength will be greatly enhanced." The Chaos City Lord pondered for a moment and said.
"Have you gained any insights after advancing to the World Lord level?"
"I have gained insight into the process by which the Life Core evolves into the Internal World, and my soul has even glimpsed the origin of the Universe Origin Law, gaining profound understanding."
From the formation of a planet within Planetary Level body, to the star-dominated galaxy at the Star Level, to the cosmic galaxy at the Universe Level, to the Life Core of a black hole at the Domain Lord Level, and finally to the birth of Internal World Lord Level, it's like the birth of a universe.
My current Internal World is based on my own Law Comprehension, with the Ten Great Laws resonating and evolving together to create this world of Law.
If life were to sprout within my Internal World at this moment, it would probably give birth to a genius inclined towards the Ten Great Laws.
The eight continents surrounding Zhang Junbao's Internal World are each filled with a different Law power, while the Central Continent is a fusion of the Space-Time Law, like a commander-in-chief overseeing the entire Internal World.
"Since World Lord Level has already evolved a world within his body, although such a world cannot compare in size to the Miniature Universe of the Universe Supreme Master, what is the essential difference between them?" Zhang Junbao asked, puzzled.
"The evolution of your Internal World represents the deepening of your Law Comprehension and a more thorough comprehension of their Origin of Laws."
You should know that the speed at which cultivators Law Comprehension increases rapidly after reaching the World Lord Level because their Internal World can be seen as a replica of the Original Universe.
The Internal World of World Lord is essentially a form of guidance from the Original Universe to cultivators.
This guides cultivators from basic Law to the Space-Time Law. Before becoming World Lord, one cultivates only a single basic Law — the Eight Great Fundamental Laws —possessing only Law attributes but lacking the concept of space and time. However, upon reaching the World Lord, the Internal World is opened, and space and time are born.
"According to historical records, the earliest cultivators in the universe were not the same as those we are now."
They do not have a clear cultivation system, but rather rely on methods such as tempering the physical body, honing Spiritual Force, divination of star charts, simulating the operation of the universe with Cosmic Energy, and constructing star charts within their bodies.
Later, as our current cultivation system gradually took shape, there was a possibility that it was guided by the Universe Origin Will.
Breaking through from Domain Lord Level to World Lord, with a world born within their body—isn't that telling cultivators that spacetime is an even more powerful Law?
The Chaos City Lord revealed an ancient history, which broadened Zhang Junbao's horizons.
"So that's how it is—simulating the universe's operation with Cosmic Energy, following the natural way?"
"That's right. Virtual Universe Company once discovered a cultivation system in some special secret realms of the universe that is completely different from the current cultivation method. It uses special secret patterns to depict the ingenious laws of the universe's operation, in order to explore the mysteries of the Universe Origin."
Unfortunately, there is very little information available about this school of thought, which has completely disappeared from the history of the universe. Some even doubt whether such a different method of cultivation originated in the Original Universe.
The records on Earth regarding 'Tao follows nature' are merely reflections and have not formed a true cultivation system. Compared to genuine Secret Pattern Diagram School, they are insignificant.
"Regardless of the method, the purpose of cultivation is only one: to bring the world within one's body, or rather, one's God Kingdom, closer to the Universe Origin."
When your understanding of the Universe Origin is sufficiently complete, the God Kingdom will transform into Miniature Universe.
" The Internal World? Miniature Universe?"
Does this represent a division at the global level?
" The Internal World is more like a Cosmic Secret Realm, possessing only a trace of the power of the Universe's Origin of Laws, Law are not perfect."
The process from World Lord to the Universe Supreme Master involves continuously enhancing the world within one's body, transforming it into the God Kingdom upon achieving Immortal, constantly perfecting and improving it, and ultimately evolving it into a Miniature Universe.
The Chaos City Lord nodded and said.
Each advancement in strength level before the World Lord Level has a significant difference, from Planetary Level internal planets to Domain Lord Level black holes, all representing changes in different celestial bodies in the universe.
However, from the World Lord to the Immortal, and even the Universe Venerable and the Universe Master, whether it is the Internal World or the God Kingdom, apart from the increase in strength, there is no essential change.
"If the entire cultivation process is a simulation of the evolution of the universe, then the transformation from the Internal World to the God Kingdom, and even the advancement of each God Kingdom, are all about filling the God Kingdom with one's own understanding of the Origin of Laws."
If the understanding of the Origin of Laws within the Internal World of World Lord is 1, then the understanding of Immortal is 10, and the Universe Supreme Master are at least billions.
These things are still too far away for you, but it's already quite impressive that you can contemplate the connection between the transformation of your Internal World and the Universe Origin.
When you broke through to the World Lord, the characteristics of the Fusion Law were incredibly strong, giving us new insights.
You do not need to stay in Chaos City for the time being; your decision to stay or leave is entirely up to you.
"Yes, senior brother."
"I have cultivated in seclusion for a hundred years, and now that I have broken through to the World Lord Level, it is time for me to venture into the universe."
Simply retreating into seclusion makes it difficult to achieve significant breakthroughs; even a thousand years of seclusion in Chaos City might not be effective.
"Indeed, go. To become a strong person, seclusion alone is not enough. Only through constant battles, slaying all enemies who stand in your way, and making them the foundation stones on your path to power, can you forge an invincible form!"
The Chaos City Lord himself was infamous for his endless slaughter. The reason why the Alien Race feared the Chaos City Lord was not only because he was the Universe Master, but also because of his terrifying bloodlust.
Every time Zhang Junbao came to the Chaos Ruins, he would find many new corpses. Many of these corpses exuded a terrifying aura, including some Universe Overlord from various races, and some even faintly revealed the terrifying aura of Universe Master.
The rise of any genius requires a bloody path; there has never been a top powerhouse in the universe who achieved fame through secluded cultivation.
With a gentle wave of his hand, the Chaos City Lord sent Zhang Junbao back to the gate of Chaos Ruins.
" Chaos, are you just going to let your junior brother go on his training like this, without even bestowing upon him a single treasure?" the Demon Lord Luan Shen said with dissatisfaction.
The Chaos City Lord shook his head, a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and said, " Junbao's luck is too strong. Just the nine Origin Supreme Treasure- level Law Core within his body are enough to rival most supreme Supreme Treasure."
Furthermore, the ' Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation ' he created is an Domain-type Supreme Treasure.
His soul already contains a high-level soul defense Heavy Treasure, the ' Heavenly Spirit Mind-Stabilizing Pearl,' which I bestowed upon him. With Junbao's current power, he is already able to wield this Heavy Treasure on his own.
I sensed that the armor on his body seemed to be a special life form, identical to his soul, and was probably Clone Secret Technique.
What's more, you even allowed a Soul Splitting to infiltrate Junbao's body.
Such a wealth of treasures—even when we were World Lord Level undergoing our trials, we probably didn't have that many.
Even if I were to bestow these gifts, it would be superfluous; they would be completely unnecessary.
What Junbao needs now is not treasures, but to make full use of the treasures he already has to strengthen his own power.
Too many treasures might cause him to overlook his own strength.
"Fine, you're right. Junior Brother carries a wisp of my Soul Splitting, and with his ' Extreme Yang Soul-Suppressing Armor,' he's not afraid of even Soul Attack at the Peak King Rank."
As long as the soul is not enslaved, there will be no problem.
The Demon Lord Luan Shen nodded, acknowledging the Chaos City Lord's statement.
Zhang Junbao isn't lacking in treasures; on the contrary, he possesses too many. Combined with his own strength, ordinary trials are of little significance to him.
As the Universe Master, they naturally understand that one cannot truly grow into a strong person without experiencing trials and tribulations. Therefore, their protection of Zhang Junbao should be appropriate.
"This seclusion lasts for a hundred years, while three hundred years have already passed in the Original Universe." Zhang Junbao sighed, realizing that hundreds of years had passed in the blink of an eye.
" Feitian, is there any important email?"
"Master, these are greeting emails from family members, as well as some of the master's friends, etc."
Your father sent an email about the situation on Earth and with the Yanzhu King.
"Oh? What did you say?"
"Your father said that after more than three hundred years of transformation, the Earth is now as solid as a rock, and those alien races are also very obedient. After learning Huaxia Language, they were instilled with a lot of ideas about protecting their homeland. Now they are all nodding their heads and trying to understand ancient poems."
The Yanzhu King finally finished the test on the World Ring that Luo Feng had given him. His personality had softened, and he was no longer as arrogant as before.
"It seems the Earth Mind Cultivation Project is progressing well; even Yanzhu King is starting to change. Since it's so effective, shouldn't we have him complete ten more World Ring challenges?"
Zhang Junbao thought about it and decided against it. If he drove the Yanzhu King mad and it blasted the Earth with one punch, it wouldn't be worth it.
"In addition, there are company emails!"
" Domain Lord Level mission?"
"Yes, although the master is already World Lord, he still has to accept the Highest Points Mission assigned by the company. As for the stationed missions, they have been canceled."
"Alright, I'll practice with the points-based missions first and familiarize myself with my current strength. However, the company knows I'm World Lord, and they're only sending me the email now, so the mission difficulty will probably be higher."
"That's right. The mission description states that it was specifically assigned based on the master's current strength, and this has been confirmed by the Chaos City Lord."
"Since it was Senior Brother Chaos who decided, then there's nothing more to say."
"This is a specially arranged task, so we must not take it lightly. What are the details of the task?" Zhang Junbao asked.
"The contents are confidential and can only be seen when the master accepts the task and is ready to carry it out."
"Are they worried about seeing the mission details ahead of time and leaking the information? They're really being cautious."
Having finally emerged from seclusion, Zhang Junbao didn't rush off to carry out a mission. Instead, he strolled around Chaos City to relieve the oppression brought on by his long period of isolation.
Chaos City is extremely ancient and vast; it is the only city in the entire Initial Universe, inhabited by numerous Immortal, and even Universe Venerable.
As the highest-level cultivation holy land for the Human Race in the universe, it naturally attracts countless powerful individuals.
The Law Path in Zhang Junbao's eyes, revealing a completely different scene.
"After advancing to the World Lord level, my eyes seem to be able to see the Law fluctuations emanating from different powerful individuals very clearly."
If one takes these experiences as insights, over time, one should be able to comprehend the secret methods they practice.
As Zhang Junbao looked around, a different aura suddenly appeared before him.
"This fluctuation of Law seems somewhat familiar."
" Zhang Junbao, don't you know it's very impolite to stare at someone like that?"
"Kindness?"
Zhang Junbao dispersed the energy of Law in his eyes, and there was a familiar face in front of him.
" Ai Chen, what are you doing here?" Zhang Junbao asked with a smile.
The person before him was none other than Light Sword Ai Chen, the genius who was in the same year as Zhang Junbao.
"I'm already Domain Lord Level, and I've just finished an overseas mission. I'd like to come to Chaos City to cultivate in seclusion for a while."
"As for you, you've been in seclusion all these years, or on missions. You haven't even shown up at gatherings of geniuses from your generation."
Ai Chen smiled slightly and asked.
Zhang Junbao had already become a legendary figure among the geniuses of his generation, and very few people were able to meet him.
It's fate that we've met in Chaos City.
"You've reached the Domain Lord too. In just a few hundred years, you've dared to take this step, surpassing countless geniuses." Zhang Junbao nodded in praise.
"You, Luo Feng, Bolan, Rong Jun, and Wuka have all broken through to the Domain Lord, and even defeated previous geniuses. If I continue to stay at the Universe Level, I'm afraid I'll never be able to catch up with you." Ai Chen sighed. In less than a thousand years since entering the Virtual Universe Company, the strongest people of his generation have all broken through to the Domain Lord and successfully defeated previous geniuses.
This made the other geniuses feel very uneasy, and they wanted to try to catch up with them.
"I haven't seen you since I heard you returned from the Purgatory Abyss. Are you also cultivating in Chaos City?"
"No, I just finished my training and am preparing to carry out the Highest Points Mission." Zhang Junbao shook his head.
" Domain Lord Level points mission? With your strength, you're among the top Domain Lord; it shouldn't be a problem."
"It is indeed Domain Lord Level points mission, but I have already reached the World Lord Level, not the Domain Lord."
"What, World Lord Level?"
It hasn't been that long. Among this generation of geniuses, many are still at the Universe Level, wanting to hone their Law Comprehension.
The fact that the strongest individuals in their cohort, such as Luo Feng, have all broken through to the Domain Lord Level is already quite astonishing.
After all, the Domain Lord of the Virtual Universe Company are all beings who have cultivated for tens of thousands of years.
But now, Zhang Junbao actually claims to be World Lord. This is clearly from the same generation of Genius Battle, and it hasn't been that long. Why is there such a huge difference?
PS: Let me update you on my recent situation. I've been quite busy with work lately, with a bunch of new projects coming up, so I've been finishing up quite late sometimes, resulting in fewer updates.
I try to write more during the day, not because I'm lazy, but because writing more means more income, and who wouldn't want that?
I apologize to those waiting for updates; I'll try my best to write as much as possible without getting fired by my boss.
