Virtual Universe, Yuxiang Mountain, Primal Region.

Inside Ling Yu's manor.

roar!!

A deafening roar of a wild beast rang out, and Ling Yu threw a punch, perfectly fusing the Time Law and Law of Lightning together, like a ferocious tiger grabbing at the void.

Not far behind Ling Yu, the White Ape King, with its white fur, saw this scene and its eyes showed a look of surprise.

Once this move subsides...

The White Ape King stepped forward and said, " Your Ling Yu, your Tiger's Roar move has barely reached the standard. You have successfully entered the First Layer of the Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast."

"Finally... have I mastered it?"

Ling Yu let out a breath.

A wave of exhaustion washed over me.

For over a thousand years, in order to complete the task assigned by the Chaos City Lord, she has been practicing this fist technique tirelessly every day, and now she has finally gained the approval of the White Ape King.

The hardships involved are beyond what outsiders can understand.

"Your Highness is exceptionally talented and works so hard. It's no surprise that you've mastered the Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast. You just need to hone your skills, and perhaps it won't be long before you meet the requirements of the Chaos City Lord."

As his mentor, the White Ape King naturally knew the goals that the Chaos City Lord had set for Ling Yu.

He mastered the First Layer of the Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast after three thousand years.

This requirement is definitely not just about getting started.

However, the most difficult hurdle has now been overcome. With his guidance and Ling Yu's attitude towards cultivation, it shouldn't take a thousand years to achieve this goal.

In that case... Ling Yu will be able to complete the goal set by the Chaos City Lord a thousand years ahead of schedule, and as his mentor, he will naturally receive many rewards.

"Thank you for your guidance, Master White Ape King. Without your help, Ling Yu wouldn't have been able to master the Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast so quickly."

Ling Yu bowed to express her gratitude.

" Your Ling Yu, please don't be so polite. This is my job. If Your Highness lacks talent, any guidance I give will be in vain."

The White Ape King smiled slightly, showing his appreciation for this genius who had mastered the basics in just a thousand years.

The Fusion Law are too difficult.

Even the Universe Venerable would rarely take such a path.

Even he only took the Path of the Beast God because the path of the Time Law was blocked.

Fortunately, he was quite talented. After countless epochs of cultivation, his Path of the Beast God had reached the peak of the Third Layer. He was just one step away from breaking through to the level of the Universe Venerable by chance, which was much more likely than simply following the Time Law.

Ling Yu is merely a World Lord Level cultivator, yet he has mastered the " Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast " in a thousand years. This speed is already somewhat faster than he did back then.

As expected of the Chaos City Lord's disciple, he truly is an unparalleled genius!

The White Ape King sighed inwardly.

Ling Yu also had her own thoughts.

Over the years, she has been cultivating the Fusion Law, and has put aside her previous understanding of the Time Law.

Thinking of the scroll of Time Law Secret Patterns that her teacher had given her a thousand years ago, she felt a headache coming on.

If my teacher knew that I haven't made any progress all these years, would they be disappointed?

"The teacher probably doesn't understand the Path of the Beast God."

Ling Yu pondered how to explain this to her teacher.

Similarly, she felt a little smug. Her teacher was known as the Myriad Laws King, who was omnipotent and had made a great name for himself in Chaos City. Even the White Ape King had mentioned him many times, expressing his envy of his teacher's talent in the Time Law.

But surely the teacher doesn't know the Path of the Beast God.

Finally, there's something about myself that my teacher doesn't understand.

Just as Ling Yu was pondering when to visit her teacher, a phone call came in.

I saw the other person's name.

Ling Yu gave the White Ape King an apologetic look, then answered the call.

Across from me was a girl with short blue hair and a round, somewhat innocent-looking face.

Who else could it be but Ling Yu's younger sister, Ling Xi?

Seeing her younger sister, Ling Yu smiled slightly.

"Sister, what are you doing? Why can't I get through on the phone?"

Ling Xi puffed out her cheeks, looking sullen.

"Hehe, my sister is cultivating and definitely can't be disturbed. What's up? Have you invented some new cuisine yet?"

Ling Yu said in a gentle tone.

Seeing his younger sister, the fatigue from cultivation seemed to disappear considerably.

She cultivates so diligently, driven by hatred in her heart, all so that her younger sister can have a better life.

"Sister, there's something I want to ask you."

Ling Xi picked up a piece of pastry, put it in her mouth, and mumbled something.

"What's up?"

"Sister, I heard from Manager Ruyan that if we register Crisp Moon Workshop under the Virtual Universe Company, I can become Core Member of the Virtual Universe Company, and then I can go see you and Teacher."

"Hmm? That seems to be a common saying. However, Virtual Universe Company has very high requirements for its subsidiaries. What is the current stock price of Crisp Moon Workshop?"

"Oh, let me see."

Seeing Ling Xi checking her company's stock price, Ling Yu was speechless. Her younger sister didn't act like a boss at all; she didn't even know what her company's stock price was.

Ling Yu quickly looked it up.

Then he showed a surprised expression.

Crisp Moon Workshop, stock code XXYT223487, has a total market capitalization of 2.99 million Hunyuan Unit.

In just over ten thousand years, Crisp Moon Workshop's assets have grown to this extent?

Ling Yu was surprised.

She thought she had misread it; all the cash she had on her didn't amount to 2.99 million Hunyuan Unit.

After all these years in the Virtual Universe Company's Primal Secret Region, I'm still not as rich as my sister?

Where can I go to seek justice?

Of course, she just doesn't have as much cash as Ling Xi; in terms of assets, she definitely has much more than Ling Xi.

"Sister, I checked, it's 2.99 million Hunyuan Unit."

Ling Xi then discovered it.

Ling Yu:...

She didn't know what to say. Her younger sister was too wealthy. You should know that Crisp Moon Workshop was only a part of Ling Xi's business. There was also a very large Hundred Flavors Pavilion, although Hundred Flavors Pavilion was not listed on the stock exchange, so it was hard to say exactly how big it was. But in terms of influence, it was in no way inferior to Crisp Moon Workshop.

Ling Xi took out a contract and looked at it, then said, " The Virtual Universe Company has certain standards for its subsidiaries. 1,000 Hunyuan Unit is a Level 3 subsidiary, and the boss can only be considered Outer Member of the company. 100,000 Hunyuan Unit is a Level 2 subsidiary, and the boss can enter the Apocalypse Mystic Region. 10 million Hunyuan Unit is a Level 1 subsidiary, and can enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm. 1 billion Hunyuan Unit is a Special Grade subsidiary, and can enter the Primordial Secret Realm."

"So, you can directly become a member of the Virtual Universe Company's Apocalypse Mystic Region and come to Yuxiang Mountain?"

Ling Yu asked in surprise.

"No... Manager Ruyan said that if we affiliate with Virtual Universe Company and become Virtual Universe Company Crisp Moon Workshop, we can negotiate with them to get 10 to 100 times the assets as equity. Even if it's 10 times, the company would be equivalent to 29.9 million Hunyuan Unit, which can be counted as a first-level subsidiary. Then I can enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm."

Looking at her serious-looking younger sister, Ling Yu felt somewhat helpless.

Back then, if it weren't for his teacher's help in comprehending the Time Origin Law, he probably would have only been able to enter the Apocalypse Mystic Region. But his younger sister, through her research on food, can now directly enter the company's Heaven and Earth Secret Realm.

Only the top 100 Genius Battle can enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm!

Although there are some differences between joining through business and joining through the Genius Battle, both are still members of the Core Secret Realm.

" Ling Xi, what are you thinking?"

Ling Yu did not help make a decision.

Ling Xi thought for a moment and said, "I want to be with my sister and teacher. It's so boring in the Ganwu Mystic Region. The teacher only lets me taste the new recipes we've researched. If I go to Yuxiang Mountain, I can be with my sister and teacher."

"Okay, then you should talk to the people in the Virtual Universe Commerce Department. With the teacher and me here, they won't dare to pressure you too much on your price. You'd better also talk to the teacher about this."

"Sister, I understand... I'll email the teacher right now."

The Initial Universe Chaos City of the universe, Qingshan Residence.

Lu Qingshan received a cashback when he first entered the Path of the Ling Yu Path of the Beast God.

[Your disciple Ling Yu has mastered the basics of the " Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast," and you have received a thousandfold return. Your understanding of the " Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast " has also greatly improved.]

Another significant improvement.

Lu Qingshan narrowed his eyes slightly, then worked with the Ghost King Avatar to digest this massive amount of experience.

Hundreds of years ago, the Ghost King Avatar had already mastered the " Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast," and the main body also gained corresponding insights. Now, they can both digest the experience brought back by the Ling Yu.

"Many!"

"It's too huge."

"This Path of the Beast God is too vast; it is indeed much more difficult than simply following the Space-Time Law."

The countless experiences gained from practicing the Path of the Beast God deepened Lu Qingshan's understanding of the " Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast," directly pushing his Path of the Beast God to the peak of the First Layer.

This cashback alone is equivalent to saving tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation.

"Boom!"

The distant Human Territory.

The Ghost King Avatar a punch, and a colossal beast tens of thousands of kilometers long appeared. A white dwarf star hundreds of millions of kilometers away was instantly reduced to ashes by this punch.

Among those of the same level, the power of the Path of the Beast God is indeed astonishing.

In terms of power, the " Eight Fists of the Thunder Beast " is probably much stronger Seven Kills of the Beast God created by Xi Luo Duo.

The Ghost King Avatar gazed at the distant, vanished planet.

A white dwarf star.

It was shattered into pieces with a single punch.

It's fortunate that this place is deserted; otherwise, it would definitely have startled others.

"With one cashback, the Path of the Beast God will directly reach the peak of the first level. If Ling Yu receives one or two more cashbacks, he will probably be able to achieve perfection. If I take the Beast God Token to receive the inheritance, I can immediately become the inheritor of the Second Layer."

Lu Qingshan knew that among the billions of inheritors of the Ancestral God Religion, the Second Layer and Third Layer of inheritors were the most numerous, and now he had almost caught up with the others.

However, Lu Qingshan did not intend to go to the Ancestral God Religion immediately.

He is still the World Lord.

The fact that they went to the Ancestral God Religion couldn't be hidden at all.

The Universe Master of the Ancestral God Religion can easily detect that he is a human soul.

Although humans and Special Lifeform are merely inheritors to the Ancestral God Religion and will not be harmed, it is extremely difficult for humans to gain any benefits from the Ancestral God Religion. After all, humans, Demon Race, Machine Race all prioritize their own races, and the Ancestral God Religion comes second.

The Ancestral God Religion paid them limited attention, at most assigning them the status of Outer Member.

However, it's different for Special Lifeform. If a Special Lifeform form hasn't joined another top race, the Ancestral God Religion will nurture it and treat it as one of their own.

Lu Qingshan plans to break through to the Immortal God before going to the Ancestral God Religion. At that time, his soul and divine body will be united, and as long as he doesn't go to the strongest person's Small Universe, no one will be able to discover his true identity.
