Chapter 150 Luo Feng becomes a disciple, leaving the bewildered True Yan King!
Within a magnificent and vast divine realm, an endless expanse of golden land stretches out, inhabited by numerous humans in grasslands and forests, as well as many technologically advanced urban structures.
One after another, technologically advanced cities were built, with nearly a hundred billion people scattered throughout these hundreds of cities, each containing a majestic statue of a god.
Countless people came to worship.
The area inhabited by humans is only a tiny part of this divine kingdom. About 30 million kilometers away from the human-inhabited area, there is a towering mountain range that reaches into the clouds. The mountain range is over a million kilometers high. At the very peak of this mountain range, there is a temple that shines with dazzling golden light. The temple is 100,000 kilometers high, and there are many people inside.
Inside the temple.
Enormous Zerg warriors patrolled the temple, and occasionally one could even spot some golden Zerg warriors of Immortal rank.
Besides the Zerg warriors, there were also many humans dressed in white robes, gold robes, and armor. These humans and Zerg warriors often passed each other by, yet they coexisted peacefully.
The highest level of the temple.
The Zerg hive, over ten kilometers high and resembling a broken meteorite, stands at the center of the highest level, surrounded by a vast number of golden Zerg warriors, numbering no less than ten thousand at a glance.
"Owner!"
The three golden-robed humans were surrounded by a large number of Zerg warriors, but they showed no fear. Instead, they bowed respectfully with fanatical expressions.
"Why did you summon me?" A soft voice, like the whisper of a peerless beauty, echoed throughout the hall.
"Master," the leading golden-robed human said respectfully, "we have very important information to report to you!"
"Of those five unparalleled geniuses from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, four have already crossed the Tongtian Bridge—"
"A disciple of the 'Holy Master'?" the soft voice asked in return.
"Yes, Master," the golden-robed human replied respectfully.
Her soft voice fell silent. She was also very familiar with the name "Holy Master," because his existence had caused their insectoid race to suffer great losses within the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.
Of course, that's nothing. The most important thing is that this human called "Saint Master" has terrifying teaching abilities, making the five geniuses of this year's Virtual Universe Company seem relatively insignificant.
"How is your investigation into the 'Holy Master' going?" a gentle voice asked.
The golden-robed human was terrified and immediately knelt down, saying, "Master—please forgive us. The human race has kept his information extremely secret. Even kings don't have the authority to access his records."
"Even at the Venerable level—"
"Based on our speculation, Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Thor, and Clark haven't taken on any masters since crossing the Heavenly Bridge. This suggests that their teacher is very likely a cosmic ruler among humankind!"
"Only in this way, after they demonstrated this talent, did it prevent the higher-ups of the Virtual Universe Company from taking them as disciples. After all, if their teacher is only a Venerable or even below the Venerable level, the Lord of the Universe is qualified to take them as disciples."
The Lord of the Universe is qualified to take a Universe Venerable as a disciple, let alone some Eternal Star or Universe-level little guys. Moreover, it is quite normal for a super genius to be taken as a disciple by multiple great beings.
Could it be the "Lord of the Abyss"?
A soft voice made a slight guess.
That's unlikely. If he had that kind of ability, how could he have remained "unknown" all this time?
"Master, there is something else—" the golden-robed human asked respectfully.
"Mmm," she responded softly.
The golden-robed human quickly said, "Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Thor, and Clark all crossed the Bridge to Heaven. Even at their worst, they are still above that super genius, Bolan, who is said to appear only once every tens of thousands of epochs!"
"This greatly surprised me, but what surprised me even more was their speed of progress! Three years ago in the Genius Battle, Thor and Clark's strength was completely inferior to Berlan's, but three years later, when they crossed the Sky Bridge, they were far superior to Berlan. Although Berlan's choice of the 'Cosmic Chaos Monument' was a factor, it also shows how fast they have improved!"
A soft voice asked calmly, "Which floor have they reached?"
The golden-robed human immediately replied, "Clark is at the fourth level, Thor at the fifth level, and Luo Feng and Rong Jun are both at the sixth level—"
The soft voice fell silent.
Reaching the sixth level on the first attempt at crossing the Heavenly Bridge? What kind of international joke is this? If this continues, won't each generation of the Genius Battle produce two super monsters at the level of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of epochs?!
And then there's Thor and Clark, who, while not insignificant, are far inferior to Luo Feng and Rong Jun.
"Let's put aside the identity of the 'Saint Master' for now; he's definitely a hidden master of the universe!" The gentle voice said decisively, "There's no need to investigate deliberately; even if we did, it wouldn't be of much use."
"The key is Luo Feng and Rong Jun. If they can maintain this pace of progress, then we'll find a way to assassinate them when they become Domain Lords!"
If they can maintain this level, they will be super geniuses at the level of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of epochs. As long as they don't perish, even the weakest among them will be at the peak of the King level. Moreover, their probability of breaking through to the Venerable level is much higher than that of other geniuses.
"Yes, Master." The man in the golden robe respectfully withdrew.
The universe is infinitely vast and boundless. Even human races, insectoid races, and machine races only occupy a portion of the entire universe. In another distant region of the cosmos, there is an incomparably powerful race, one of which is a divine kingdom hidden in the interlayer of space.
This is a divine continent filled with black currents.
Inside the towering black temple.
"Owner."
A figure shrouded in black mist knelt respectfully, while on the throne in the cold, desolate hall sat a figure over three thousand meters tall, composed of countless black rocks. Dark flames swirled around the rocky surface of his entire body, and black flames occasionally spewed from his nostrils.
He looked down at the tiny figure below.
"Hmm?" Black flames spewed from the nostrils of the towering figure.
"Master, we have just received intelligence that the top four young human geniuses in this year's Genius Battle have already crossed the Heavenly Bridge. Among them, Luo Feng and Rong Jun reached the sixth level on their first attempt, Thor reached the fifth level, and Clark reached the fourth level, all far surpassing Naberan!"
"If this continues, then Luo Feng and Rong Jun will be super monsters at least at the level of tens of millions of epochs, and Thor Clark will become a super prodigy that appears only once every hundreds of thousands, or even millions of epochs."
The figure shrouded in black mist spoke respectfully.
"Who exactly is this 'Holy Master'? How's your investigation going?" The towering figure spewed black flames from his nostrils again, clearly finding it unbelievable.
The figure shrouded in black mist replied, "Master, according to our investigation, this 'Saint Master' is very likely the hidden Universe Lord of the human race—..."
"But they're all staying in Chaos City right now, so we have no chance at all—"
The towering figure looked down at the black mist figure below: "There is no possibility of the Chaos City Lord guarding this place. Just wait. When he becomes a Domain Lord, or even a World Lord, he will definitely leave the Virtual Universe Company headquarters. At that time, there will naturally be an opportunity."
A colossal cube, forged from countless crystals, floats within a majestic divine realm. The entire cube is approximately 300 million kilometers in diameter and is composed entirely of strange crystals.
At the core of the cube, a man sat on a jade throne. He had a perfect body that seemed to be sculpted from crystal, and his appearance was very similar to that of a human. He had a golden eye above his eye, and invisible ripples spread from his eye throughout the entire cube, which was 300 kilometers in diameter.
"Oh?"
"The human race from the distant primordial chaos has actually produced such a super being? No wonder they are one of the top races alongside us. But what is their purpose?"
"The human race cannot produce such unparalleled geniuses without paying a price. If it's merely for fishing, then there's no need for this. Is it perhaps to cover for some unparalleled genius?"
"Interesting, interesting"
"The territories of those four top clans are approaching each other; the more brutal the battle, the better." The man smiled, then closed his three eyes.
Two super monsters were born among humans, and they reached the sixth level on their first attempt at crossing the Heavenly Bridge. This news quickly spread throughout the universe to countless alien races.
Meanwhile, Zhou Ze was still immersed in the nutrient solution, while his eldest disciple Luo Feng sat in the square where True Yan King was lecturing, watching True Yan King teleport with every step he took.
When Zhenyanwang looked at him, Luo Feng smiled and nodded, and Zhenyanwang nodded in return.
This attracted the attention of a group of people who had come to listen to the lecture. Most of these people were domain lords, realm lords, and even immortals.
Those who are qualified to enter the initial universe and listen to lectures by grandmasters are not far behind in strength, no matter how weak they are. Such beings are usually busy cultivating and few have the mind to pay attention to the Genius Battle.
Even so, quite a few people still recognized Luo Feng's identity.
There's no way around it; this year's Genius Battle is inherently unique and easily attracts attention. Whether it's the Qianwu Universe Kingdom sweeping the top four spots and having five players in the top ten, or the supposedly once-in-ten-thousand-years super genius, Bolan, only ranking fifth—"
This alone could set off an explosion across all of humanity and all the major cosmic nations, not to mention that reaching the sixth level on the first attempt at crossing the Heavenly Bridge is truly insane!
"It's Luo Feng!"
"Why would someone like him come to a lecture?"
"He should have already been accepted as a disciple by a cosmic ruler or even a more powerful being. There's no need for him to come to class, is there?"
"This is Luo Feng? He looks quite ordinary."
The practitioners who came to listen to the lecture were all discussing it amongst themselves.
In their view, Luo Feng had no need to come to the lecture. Many of them had been hanging around Chaos City for years and naturally knew what it meant to break through the Heavenly Bridge to the sixth level on the first try.
Such monsters would have been sought after by super beings long ago, who might even personally guide them.
These cultivators thought a lot, but none of them had considered Luo Feng's true purpose.
In the distance, King Zhenyan sat cross-legged, with dozens of disciples sitting on either side. Although he was somewhat curious as to why Luo Feng had come to listen to his lecture, he did not think much of it.
"Today I will explain in detail the first three diagrams of the 'Nine Universes Chaos Stele,' as these three diagrams form the foundation." King Zhenyan stretched out his finger, pointing to the air. In the air, some complex secret patterns appeared, just like the secret patterns on the scales of the Golden Horned Beast:
"As long as you master these three images—the fourth to sixth images are simply variations and combinations of the first three—"
The disciples of the True King, and even the thousands of people listening to the lecture, were completely absorbed.
However, to Luo Feng, it sounded mysterious and profound, and the description of the law was not clear enough.
"Alright, that concludes today's lecture," True King Yan said calmly three days later.
"Thank you, Teacher!"
Everyone bowed respectfully.
At this moment, a black-haired youth stepped out from among the thousands of cultivators and walked directly to the front of the crowd, immediately drawing the attention of all the cultivators.
"What is he going to do?"
"Is this kid going to become my apprentice?"
"Is Luo Feng, that freak, going to become my disciple?"
"What does he mean by that? No way, no way?"
Those who knew Luo Feng or not were all astonished.
Not to mention them, even King Zhenyan was extremely surprised.
Following the rules of Chaos City, Luo Feng knelt on the ground under the watchful eyes of thousands of cultivators and respectfully shouted:
"I earnestly request that you accept me as your disciple!"
The audience was silent.
Not to mention the thousands of cultivators, even the True King himself was dumbfounded.
What merit does he possess?
Why would anyone want to find such a super monster? Shouldn't he have been sought after as a disciple by a group of incredibly powerful beings when he was still trying to cross the Heavenly Bridge?
