Chapter 286: Venerable Zhen Yan

"After Luo Feng entered Zijing Island, he also caused quite a stir; that was before you, third brother, had immersed yourself in cultivation," Hong laughed, "Luo Feng took on the challenge of 830,000 triple inheritance seekers on Zijing Island, and his record was outstanding."

"One could say Luo Feng has been continuously shocking the universe," Lei Shen said enviously, "When will I also have such glorious achievements!"

"Ah, a great reputation doesn't necessarily mean it's good; I had just completed all the challenges and was about to receive the inheritance when I was attacked, and the Human True Body was destroyed in an instant!" Luo Feng said with distress, "If it weren't for the restrictions on Zijing Island, my Ultimate Treasures, especially the three Ultimate Treasures you, Xiao Yu, forged, would have been taken by the alien tribes."

"Who exactly tried to assassinate you!" Xiao Yu's voice rose a third.

The voice was icy, making the surrounding space‑time seem frozen; Lei Shen, Hong, and Luo Feng were startled and fell into a binding.

"Third brother!" Luo Feng shouted as he broke free of the binding.

"Haha, sorry about that; I just finished cultivating, and when emotions flare I can't quite control it!" Xiao Yu quickly reined in his power, and Hong and Lei Shen only then regained their ability to act.

"Old third, your strength is truly growing ever stronger," Hong said with a sigh.

"Indeed, Xiao Yu, how did you generate such a strong binding force within the Virtual Universe?" Lei Shen asked in surprise; Lei Shen has been in the core of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance for over ten thousand years, and his understanding of cultivation is far greater than before.

"These alien tribes are truly hateful; when they see a genius from the Human Race, they devise every possible way to assassinate!" Lei Shen said angrily, "Both Xiao Yu and Luo Feng have suffered assassination attempts by those alien tribes."

"I previously obtained the inheritance of the Tower Sacrificial Maker, studied their Secret Pattern, and the Secret Pattern has already fused with my divine soul. Just now, my emotions flared, and I subconsciously activated the Virtual Secret Pattern," Xiao Yu explained.

"The Strongest of the Universe—that's an existence even stronger than the Lord of the Universe!" Luo Feng said.

"Yuan Zu?" Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen were all utterly astonished.

"Third brother, I heard from Teacher Hun Dun that you also cultivate the Beast God inheritance; when we have time, let's spar within the World of Glory," Luo Feng said.

"What?" Luo Feng exclaimed, "The Virtual Cosmic Network is actually a secret technique that covers such a massive area; that must be an incredibly powerful super‑strong being."

The Virtual Cosmic Network is essentially just a network; the strongest of the Human Race split a thread of consciousness to enter the Virtual Cosmic Network. Although the Virtual Universe can simulate various law effects, it cannot produce real effects at all.

"Third brother, I also want to ask about this. In the Virtual Universe, without Permission, even the Lord of the Universe probably couldn't achieve this, right?" Luo Feng asked.

"He was suppressed by the Primordial Universe for certain reasons," Xiao Yu continued, "Alright, discussing him now is still too early; let's wait until we become the Lord of the Universe."

"Our Human Race previously produced a super‑strong being who suppressed the entire Primordial Universe, the Yuan Zu; those alien tribes fear that our race might produce another Yuan Zu, which is why they devise every method to hunt down our geniuses," Xiao Yu explained.

"Someone so powerful, how is there not a single piece of information about them!" Hong asked.

"You just didn't say who assassinated you?" Xiao Yu, recalling that Luo Feng hadn't answered his question, continued to ask.

"Luo Feng, has your third Soul Split been gestating?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Oh, when the chance arises!" Xiao Yu awkwardly patted his head, softly saying, "I have already reached the sixth level of inheritance."

"Hmm, that was the first Strongest of the Universe from our Human Race, stronger than the Great Axe. The Virtual Cosmic Network was created by one of his secret techniques," Xiao Yu continued.

Actually Xiao Yu hadn't said everything; it relates to his cultivation of the Fusion Principle, and the path of the Virtual Secret Pattern alone cannot achieve this.

"Among them, one is the Demon Race's Swamp‑Eating Venerable, who was killed by the Five‑colored Aurora Lake. Another is the Insect Race Alliance's Enlightened Light Venerable, who was unable to carry out an assassination," Luo Feng answered.

Even the Lord of the Universe can only exert pressure through aura to deter, and cannot use laws to bind consciousness.

"Third brother, my third Soul Split is already gestating," Luo Feng said with a smile.

Xiao Yu calculated the time; Luo Feng should now be secretly cultivating on Zijing Island, so he reminded, "When you have time, you can go to Treasure Land and take a look; perhaps you'll obtain an Ultimate Treasure there."

"Third brother, the deeds on Zijing Island have already become legend; the Beast God bestows treasures, and Treasure Land yields riches!" Luo Feng said.

"I truly envy you two!" Lei Shen said with a hint of sourness.

……

As the four leaders of the Earth Lineage, Xiao Yu and the three others have agreed to subject Realm Lord Level strongmen to life‑and‑death trials; for the current Earth Lineage, the best

Although Earth has now established a parliamentary system, as long as Xiao Yu and the three pass, even if there is opposition below,

these Realm Lord Level individuals will still be sent into the Outer Realm Battlefield and will have their military merits reassigned.

Most of them rose to Realm Lord Level on the battlefield, and they can say they understand the dangers of the Outer Realm Battlefield better than anyone.

Thus, with their rich experience, they re‑enter the Outer Realm Battlefield with a higher survival rate than others.

Moreover, Xiao Yu has specially crafted tens of thousands of various treasures comparable to top‑tier Heavy Treasures for them to exchange, to protect their safety.

Among them, only a portion of the strong have enough points to exchange.

……

Now Xiao Yu has left the path of the Fusion Principle and has reallocated the Soul Calculation Speed each task can yield.

Regarding the eight Great Beast God inheritances, each can only obtain 2,000 times the Soul Calculation Speed.

For self‑created secret techniques, the gain is 20,000 times the Soul Calculation Speed.

Comprehending the fourth level of the "Primordial Soul" secret technique yields 10,000 times the Soul Calculation Speed.

Comprehending the "I Am Time‑Space" secret technique yields 5,000 times the Soul Calculation Speed.

Exploring the Chaos Law yields 43,500 times the Soul Calculation Speed.

The Human True Body gains 5,000 times the Soul Calculation Speed.

As for the remaining 500 times the Soul Calculation Speed, it is dynamically allocated according to

In fact, all of Xiao Yu's Soul Splits' Soul Calculation Speed is dynamically allocated, based on Xiao Yu's needs.

Returning to cultivation mode, Xiao Yu often enters the Inheritance Land.

A hundred years later, Xiao Yu heard a rumor that Luo Feng entered Treasure Land, causing it to quake, and obtained the treasure of the 106th high mountain peak.

"Luo Feng truly lives up to being the Son of Destiny; even so, he still obtained the Silver Qiu Illusion Ship, that flying palace Heavy Treasure," Xiao Yu thought.

The Lord of Wine's wine‑carrying ship is extremely famous throughout the entire universe.

Upon learning this, Xiao Yu also discovered that Zhen Yan Wang had been promoted to Venerable; although he is the most ordinary Universe Venerable, when Luo Feng fell into the Nine Nether Space, he joyfully slashed the Bark Mirror King.

After Zhen Yan Wang was promoted to Universe Venerable, a palace appeared halfway up Thunder Island.

Xiao Yu had been continuously cultivating and did not go to congratulate.

An avatar residing in the Virtual Universe arrived at the palace gate.

Under the gaze of two attendants, Xiao Yu transmitted his voice, "Venerable Zhen Yan, Time‑Space King, I have come to offer congratulations."
