Chapter 153: Identity Exposed

The boundless Outer Domain Battlefield, countless strong ones from the billions of peoples of the Four Great Summit Camps, are constantly proving themselves through repeated adventures and battles.

Among them, some rise to fame because of an enviable expedition haul or a heart‑stirring fierce battle.

There are also those who unfortunately fall on the road to rise, causing sighs of regret.

On that day, a rumor from within the Demon Race spread instantly across most of the Universe.

The news contains two main points—

First, the rapidly rising Human Race Peak Sealing King in the Fourth Domain Battlefield over the past millennium, the Reincarnation King, is actually a Realm Lord, suspected to be the once‑in‑ten‑million‑years unparalleled genius of the Human Race, Zhou Yang, who more than two thousand years ago was taken as a direct disciple by the Chaos City Lord!

Second, this Reincarnation King has already encountered the Demon Race Heaven Drive King deep within the Temporal‑Spatial Abyss, and in the fight was hurled into Temporal‑Spatial Turbulence by the Heaven Drive King, apparently having fallen! The report is extremely brief, yet the information it contains is enough to shock anyone! While some may not know the Reincarnation King's name, the Immortal strongers of King‑Sealing Level who are active in the Fourth Domain Battlefield from the various Summit Camps know it perfectly.

According to the intelligence they have gathered, the Reincarnation King has been on the Outer Domain Battlefield for just over a thousand years.

At first he was only on the Nine Fiend Continent, battling ordinary Army Lords and Noble Prince Immortals.

Yet after just over a thousand years, he outright slaughtered the entire Nine Fiend Continent, earning the title of Peak Sealing King! Rumor also has it that more than twenty years ago, the three Demon Race strongmen who fell into the Temporal‑Spatial Abyss—Blood Gu King, Mingya Wang, and Ci Zuo King—were all defeated by him.

Those are three Peak Sealing King powerful Immortals, and the Blood Gu King's Soul Poison Mist especially makes most Sealing King Limit Strongers quite wary!

If that rumor is true, the Reincarnation King's actual strength is probably already close to the Sealing King Limit!

Know that across the entire Fourth Domain Battlefield there are hundreds of thousands of Sealing King Immortals, and those whose strength can reach the Sealing King Limit definitely do not exceed one percent!

Yet now someone tells them that this strong one, whose power is near the Sealing King Limit, actually holds only the realm of a Realm Lord, and the total cultivation years of this Realm Lord may be less than three thousand. This, this is like a tale from Arabian Nights! Moreover, hearing that such a comet‑like rising unparalleled genius has now been hurled by the Demon Race Heaven Drive King into the deep turbulence of the Temporal‑Spatial Abyss, apparently having fallen, further shocks these strong ones.

If that news is true, the Outer Domain Battlefield likely won't be peaceful anytime soon.

With such an unparalleled genius falling into the Demon Race's hands, the angry Human Race strong ones will inevitably launch a bloody retaliation, and an unprecedented ultimate war may erupt in an instant.

"Hurry, the Human Race and Demon Race are about to go to war; staying on this Outer Domain Battlefield is far too dangerous!"

"Ah, my Military Merit mission isn't finished yet, what should I do?"

"Haha, two major Summit Camps at war? That's truly rare, not to be missed."

The countless strong ones on the Outer Domain Battlefield reacted differently—some are already planning escape, while others are rubbing their fists, eager to seize an opportunity in the upcoming war. Such momentous news naturally spread quickly to the Human Race, instantly causing a huge stir within it.

"Zhou Yang is the Reincarnation King? Really? This… this. Heaven, how many years has he cultivated!"

"What, being hurled by the Demon Race Heaven Drive King into the Temporal‑Spatial Abyss turbulence!"

"Damn Demon Race, causing the Human Race to lose an unparalleled genius; revenge, we must revenge!"

"Zhou Yang? The genius that appears once every ten‑million years? Hmph, a fallen genius."

Within the Human Race, some lament and hate, while others secretly rejoice; human hearts are a maze of ghosts, and different people's joys and sorrows naturally differ.

In the Virtual Universe, atop Thunder Island, within a Temple enveloped by endless Chaos Airflow, Zhou Yang's figure suddenly appears here.

He had been immersed in the perception of that profound sigil, but suddenly received an Email summons from the Chaos City Lord, so he had to temporarily suspend his perception and teleport here.

"Teacher!"

Zhou Yang called respectfully.

"Hoo‑hoo‑hoo~~~"

The endless Chaos Airflow split to both sides, and a majestic figure clad in a Gold Robe appeared in Zhou Yang's view.

The Chaos City Lord looked at Zhou Yang, his gaze as deep as the endless Xingkong.

"You came to see me, indicating it's temporarily safe? What's the situation now, do you need me to intervene and rescue?"

The Chaos City Lord asked, his tone rather concerned.

"Thank you for your concern, Teacher."

Zhou Yang bowed respectfully,

"Fortunately, with the Myriad Elephant Tower protection granted by you, my current situation is safe, and occasional opportunities arise, so for now I don't need you to act."

"Oh? If nothing's wrong, that's good."

The Chaos City Lord nodded, yet did not ask what the so‑called opportunity was.

He looked at Zhou Yang, and the usually calm eyes now carried a hint of smile.

"In this period, you've caused quite a stir, killing multiple Peak Sealing Kings with a World Master Level realm, even including three Peak Sealing Kings, earning the title 'Reincarnation King'," the Chaos City Lord said with a faint smile, "Especially not long ago, when the Demon Race released the news, it directly exposed your World Master Level identity, causing a huge uproar."

"Now, the major races across the Universe, including some of my own Human Race, are all extremely interested in your true identity and life‑or‑death status."

Since the Chaos City Lord is Zhou Yang's teacher and heads the Virtual Universe Company, he naturally has long known Zhou Yang's Reincarnation King identity.

Even so, he can't help but be slightly surprised by Zhou Yang's astonishing acceleration.

In Human Race history, there have been many geniuses who, with a World Master Level identity, possessed Peak Sealing King combat power.

Nevertheless, he knows Zhou Yang's situation.

He knows his disciple is treading a special path that almost no one has ever attempted.

On this path, he has no reference or guidance.

Even he can only offer a little help in improving his Law Perception.

And in the concrete integration and application of multiple laws, he can only rely on Zhou Yang's own exploration.

After all, in this Universe, the prevailing cultivation paths are the Space-Time Dao and the Eight Beast God Dao.

He has never heard of Lower Position Laws where spatial series laws and temporal series laws could fuse with each other.

Although the Chaos City Lord's realm is high, he does not wish to overly interfere with Zhou Yang in domains he has not deeply understood.

Thus, Zhou Yang, relying on his own exploration, within a short thousand years went from nothing to having pushed the cultivation ceiling of this path up to the Peak Sealing King level! "Could this truly be a viable path?"

At this moment, the Chaos City Lord's thoughts also wavered slightly.

"Sorry to trouble you, Teacher; I never expected the Demon Race to have guessed my identity."

Zhou Yang bowed slightly toward the Chaos City Lord.

After entering the Virtual Universe, he naturally also learned the rumors spread by the Demon Race.

He was also rather helpless, since he had been very careful to avoid exposing his identity.

Even after receiving the Reincarnation King title, he specifically asked the Teacher to delay his joining of the Hong Alliance, in order to prevent schemers from linking the Reincarnation King title with his own identity as Zhou Yang.

However, despite that, he was still targeted by the demon race, which really made him a bit depressed.

「No problem. 」

The Chaos City Lord's thoughts quickly turned; he looked at Zhou Yang, his eyes full of a calm smile.

「The Four Top-Tier Races planting spies in each other's gaps is unavoidable; your leaving Chaos City isn't a secret either. Combining the time you left Chaos City with the time the Reincarnation King appeared on the Outer Domain Battlefield inevitably leads to speculation. 」

「That's right. 」

Zhou Yang smiled wryly: 「I didn't expect the demon race people to muster such a huge force and strike directly based on just a guess, even using the Supreme Treasure that seals the palace and the Domain Type supreme treasure. 」

「The demon race, insect race, mechanical race, and my human race—the Four Top-Tier Races border each other; in the endless eras' struggles, they naturally forged huge grudges. Whenever one side produces an unparalleled genius, the other sides' assassination departments will surely target them. 」

「Moreover, the talent you displayed as the Reincarnation King is extraordinary; it's no wonder they regard you as an important target, which is why they went all out. 」

The Chaos City Lord laughed: 「That's actually good too; you can take the opportunity to lie low for a while and hone yourself. How is your comprehension of the Fusion Law secret technique coming along? Any ideas? 」

Zhou Yang couldn't help but look at the Chaos City Lord; this was the first time he had actively asked about the Fusion Law.

He respectfully replied: 「Master, I have already grasped the framework fusion of the first stage of the eight laws; I can be considered to have just entered the door. 」

「Hmm. 」

The Chaos City Lord nodded, looking at Zhou Yang with a hint of earnestness in his eyes: 「Since you insist on this path, then forge ahead without hesitation; if you need my help, just speak up anytime. 」

「Yes, thank you, Master; I will surely not disappoint your expectations! 」

Zhou Yang responded respectfully, his eyes full of confidence and determination.

「With the all‑around enhancement from the Meteor Tear, with the Three Souls Nine Refineries strengthening the soul, with countless doppelgangers jointly comprehending, and with the structural reference of the Qiankun World. 」

「Now I have also fortuitously discovered the Law Decomposition secret pattern diagram. 」

「If even this cannot make the path work, it's simply intolerable by heavenly principle. 」
