Chaos: This Foundation... He Has the Potential to Become a Universe Master! (3.3k)
Chaos City, City Lord's Mansion.
Deep within the city lord's mansion lies a continent covered with countless corpses, all belonging to Alien Races.
A man dressed in dark red armor sat cross-legged on the ground, with a huge tail behind him.
He is the Chaos City Lord.
"News from Golden Axe." The Chaos City Lord glanced at the message from the Virtual Universe; it was about Chen Yi's attempt to cross the Heavenly Bridge.
As the head of the Virtual Universe Company, the Chaos City Lord is very busy, so he has had the Golden Axe Venerable keep an eye on several promising geniuses this year.
Upon seeing the message from Golden Axe Venerable, the Chaos City Lord paused, then smiled. His gaze drifted into the distance, as if he could see Chen Yi's Cultivation Residence there... Chen Yi's consciousness entered the Virtual Universe.
"This kid actually has a talent for the Time Law?"
"Was it obtained from Clone?"
The moment Chen Yi entered Chaos City, the Chaos City Lord discovered the "Starry Firmament Hibernation One" Clone and the Golden Horned Beast Clone that Chen Yi and Luo Feng each brought. Based on the fact that all the souls were human, they were clearly Clone.
Since Chen Yi and Luo Feng were both human souls, not Alien Race, the Chaos City Lord pretended not to see it, and instead increased their potential in his mind.
With the same strength, the difference in potential between having Clone and not having Clone is huge.
"Talent in Law of Space and Time Laws, along with decent comprehension, plus the ability to create Clone... becoming Universe Overlord would be quite easy, Top Universe Overlord is also possible, and Universe Master is not out of the question."
The Chaos City Lord felt this was the best news he had received in a long period of time.
His consciousness entered Virtual Universe.
In his own hall, with a wave of his hand... a scene of Chen Yi breaking through the Heavenly Bridge appeared before him. At this moment, Chen Yi was on the Heavenly Bridge, completely suppressing the guardian of the eighth level. It was clear that it wouldn't take him long to pass through the eighth level.
Virtual Universe, Yuxiang Mountain.
Luo Feng and Rong Jun were gathered together, waiting for news of Chen Yi's breakthrough at the Heavenly Bridge. During their months in Chaos City, they had no idea about Chen Yi's cultivation progress.
But.
They could all foresee that Chen Yi had made tremendous progress. Even before entering Chaos City, Chen Yi's understanding of the Time Law had already improved considerably.
"Geniuses, here's some news: Chen Yi has passed the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge and is now attempting the eighth."
"Phew, seventh floor now." Rong Jun took a sip of wine, his face unchanged. In their eyes, it was perfectly normal for Chen Yi to pass the seventh floor.
Luo Feng wasn't surprised at all, and said:
"I feel like I can probably get through the sixth level now... I just haven't tried. Since coming to Chaos City, the laws here are much clearer, and the Chaos Beast outside the city have been a great help."
"Although Chen Yi has not yet killed Chaos Beast or absorbed the Chaos True Spirit."
"But just because the rules are clearer here means there's definitely been significant progress."
Rong Jun nodded; the cultivation environment in Chaos City was indeed excellent.
Every time a World Lord enters through an external auction or some other opportunity, many of them manage to complete their final breakthrough within Chaos City and become Undying... Undying are already rare powerhouses in the entire universe.
"It's a pity that even we can only stay here for thirty years. We don't know when we'll be able to come back again. We might have to wait until we break through to the Domain Lord before we have a chance," Rong Jun sighed.
Luo Feng also cared deeply about it and was determined to seize the opportunity and make the most of his time to cultivate over the next thirty years.
"Geniuses, another message: Chen Yi has passed the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge and is now on his way to the ninth level."
Rong Jun and Luo Feng exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with emotion.
"Eight floors."
"At least three levels higher than me, and two levels higher than you." Rong Jun glanced at Luo Feng. Rong Jun was also at the fifth level, which he had reached after cultivating in Chaos City for several months. Like Luo Feng, he had not yet ventured out.
"As expected of Chen Yi." Luo Feng nodded.
It may seem like just two stories, but the Heavenly Bridge gets increasingly difficult as you go further down it.
Chen Yi's "Starry Firmament Hibernation One" doubled his comprehension, which not only doubled his cultivation speed, but also doubled his mental processing and comprehension abilities. This meant that many Mysteries of Laws that might take a long time or even forever to understand could be comprehended in a very short time.
That's how you understand the laws.
First, one must perceive it. Perceiving this relies on one's affinity with the laws, which is one's innate talent in the laws. After perceiving it, one must then rely on one's own comprehension to understand it...
Just like math, you either understand it or you don't.
There is no intermediate value.
The significance of comprehension lies here.
Luo Feng is currently at the fourth level on the surface, but in reality, he already has the ability to pass the sixth level. He was already at this level when he first entered Chaos City, which is quite remarkable.
But Chen Yi has already passed through eight levels.
But.
Rong Jun and Luo Feng felt no jealousy whatsoever; in fact, they both admired Chen Yi, Chen Yi shared many precious items with them.
Everyone used a lot of the same cultivation resources.
Luo Feng, in particular, knew very well that Chen Yi, like him, was being mentored by Senior Yun, but he had fallen far behind.
That's purely a difference in talent.
Moreover, even when Chen Yi was promoted, he rarely forgot about them, so neither of them felt any pressure.
Luo Feng goes without saying; he and Chen Yi came from Earth together, and Rong Jun has also been with him for many years. The three met at the beginning of the Genius Battle, and many years have passed since then.
Given Rong Jun and Luo Feng's personalities, they had long since truly regarded the "Mutual Aid Alliance" as a whole, and Chen Yi's progress was the progress of the collective!
"Babata, tell someone to prepare some food in the Virtual Universe. When the time comes, in the Ganwu Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe, call Hong and Thunder God, and we'll all celebrate together." Luo Feng chatted with Babata.
Time flows faster in the outside world now.
Hong and Thunder God have already joined the Virtual Universe Company and are seeking to gradually advance to the Core Layer.
That's all.
I waited a long time.
Luo Feng glanced at the time, somewhat puzzled. "Why hasn't Chen Yi arrived yet? He should be here by now... surely he's not still trying to conquer the ninth level?"
Rong Jun was also somewhat confused.
They had already informed Chen Yi that Hong and Thunder God were waiting in the Ganwu Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe, and so much time had passed.
There has been no response from Chen Yi yet.
Just as I was wondering what was going on, an email was sent to both of them at the same time.
The content is:
"Geniuses, another message: Chen Yi has passed the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge and is now on his way to the Tenth Layer."
The Heavenly Bridge on its ninth level!
Many of the contestants in the Genius Battle received this message at that moment.
Ordinary Undying is merely the comprehension of the Tenth Layer.
In other words, the ninth level is actually the limit for World Lord. In fact, most World Lord, even in their entire lives of a thousand eras or ten million years, will not reach the limit of World Lord.
After all, acknowledging the Origin of Laws is a difficult thing for many World Lords.
Despite the significant increase in clarity regarding the laws at the World Lord Level, his Law Comprehension is still inferior to Chen Yi's.
In this universe...:
Comprehension determines everything. Without sufficient comprehension, no matter how much time you spend, you still won't grasp the Mysteries of Laws and won't make any progress in the Virtual Universe.
The Chaos City Lord watched Chen Yi's entire ascent across the Heavenly Bridge Chaos City Lord his own palace. His eyes gleamed with increasing joy. "His comprehension, his talent in time and space... they're all so high!"
"With such a foundation, his potential to become Universe Master is undeniable. He has a very high chance of becoming Universe Master, but whether he can truly reach that level still depends on himself..."
"Let's call Purple Spirit to come and take a look."
Purple Spirit is the seventh disciple of Purple Spirit Star Master and Chaos City Lord. At this moment, Chaos City Lord contacted Purple Spirit Star Master.
Soon.
The Purple Spirit Star Master arrived at this grand hall. Behind her was a feathered robe shimmering with purple spiritual light, making her resemble an angel from Earth's mythology. The Purple Spirit Star Master came from the Mengluo Wing Race of the Human Race and was currently the strongest member of the Mengluo Wing Race.
As the Universe Overlord of the Human Race, the Purple Spirit Star Master caused quite a stir in her early years because she had exceptionally high talent in both the Higher Laws time and space, and her comprehension was absolutely at the level of a genius that only appears once every hundred million epochs.
Such a foundation naturally gives one a great hope of becoming the Universe Master, and for this reason, the Purple Spirit Star Master became a disciple of the Chaos City Lord very early on.
"Teacher," the Purple Spirit Star Master called out respectfully.
Look at this.
The Chaos City Lord replayed the scene of Chen Yi passing through the ninth level.
The Purple Spirit Star Master rarely goes out, focusing solely on studying the Law of Space. She is Time Venerable... Her own secret techniques and Law Comprehension have reached the limit of the Venerable Level.
The Supreme Treasure is also quite good.
Being of human origin, their genetic potential is not very high. Even though they have obtained some treasures that can increase their genetic potential, they are still lacking in the basics. Therefore, they are just ordinary overlords and cannot reach the level of Top Universe Overlord.
But whether or not one can become the Universe Master remains to be seen.
She is definitely one of the most promising Venerables among the Human Race.
The Purple Spirit Star Master looked at the image her teacher had projected; it depicted a young man in white robes wielding the "Myriad Aspects Light," a technique she herself had created.
In the ninth floor.
The young man in white skillfully manipulated the Myriad Aspects Light, sending out countless orbs of light and unfolding a phantom array. The Myriad Aspects Light, as the psychic weapon of its Controller, actually consisted of these orbs of light that it condensed, which were the true "objects of control."
This is also the core of many secret techniques in the secret art "Purple Spirit".
"Use a large number of controlled objects imbued with insights into 'time' and 'space' to arrange the formation."
When Chen Yi attempted to ascend to the ninth level, he used almost every trick in the book.
The Purple Spirit Star Master examined the artifacts carefully and finally commented, "Not bad in terms of time and space comprehension. Universe Level cultivator has already passed the ninth level. The Universe Chaos Stele cultivators have gained a promising talent."
"But"
"He's practicing what's contained in my 'Purple Spirit' secret technique, and there doesn't seem to be anything special about it. Teacher, what brings you here?"
"He has the potential to become Universe Master, and a high-level Universe Master. Even if he doesn't become Universe Master, he still has the potential to become Top Universe Overlord," said the Chaos City Lord.
Purple Spirit Star Master recalled the scene she had just witnessed, her eyes filled with doubt. She couldn't see anything different about the young man in white.
To pass the ninth level at the Universe Level is already quite remarkable. Among the Universe Level cultivators in the current Primal Secret Region who have cultivated for countless years and completed numerous missions, only one has passed the eighth level, and no one has passed the ninth level.
However, the Purple Spirit Star Master did not think that a mere Universe Level being who had passed the ninth level was worth paying attention to.
After all, the Universe Level Original Tongtian Mountain, has a full twelve levels!
One must be close to this level to be valued by the Chaos City Lord; she wouldn't accept a disciple if one was only at the ninth level.
The Chaos City Lord noticed the Purple Spirit Star Master's expression and realized that his disciple hadn't been paying attention to the recent Genius Battle, so he introduced:
"This Chen Yi."
"The cultivation period is very short."
"He's the champion of this year's Genius Battle, the one from a few years ago. He had just joined the Virtual Universe Company, and he had only cultivated in Chaos City for a few months before passing the ninth level."
"???" The Purple Spirit Star Master raised his head, his eyes filled with undisguised surprise.
