Chapter 159 Grandmaster of the Mother Ancestor's Lineage



Chapter 159 Grandmaster of the Mother Ancestor's Lineage

"Such a strong will, such a powerful amplitude of consciousness!"

In the Skybridge dimension, the guardian Baffin looked on incredulously.

"I've crossed the Sky Bridge for the first time and actually made it to the fourth level. How long has it been since I did that?"

Emails were sent out to all permanent residents of Chaos City of the Mother Ancestor faction, as well as high-ranking officials of Lucky Island, the head of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance.

As a super-intelligent guardian of the Skybridge, Baffin follows many rules and acts according to preset instructions.

A cosmic-level genius who has just arrived in Chaos City and has already passed the fourth level of the Sky Bridge, only occasionally appears in the battle of cosmic powerhouses. A cosmic-level genius recruited through ordinary means, he is a rare sight, only seen once every billions of years.

Although in theory, all major forces have similar channels to the 'Path of Glory,' at the cosmic level, if one can reach the strength of the fourth level of the Bridge to Heaven without comprehending the Chaos Stele, one can be directly absorbed as a core member.

But in reality, cosmic-level individuals who become core members in this way are extremely rare.

It's not that it's difficult. A true genius at the cosmic level, even without comprehending the Chaos Stele, can easily reach this level of strength after cultivating for several thousand or tens of thousands of years, provided the cultivation conditions aren't too bad.

However, all the major powers spare no effort in absorbing geniuses. There are too many channels for advancement. The truly talented universe-level geniuses have already been absorbed. Even if some are missed, the universe-level battle of the strongest, which takes place once every 5000 years, can almost wipe out all the geniuses.

On the contrary, the Battle of Geniuses, which also takes place once every 5000 years, is far from enough to gather all of humanity's geniuses, as true geniuses rarely stay on the stars for very long.

Gao Sheng's consciousness trembled, and he was back in the study of the Lucky Island villa.

"That Burning Sky Style move is amazing!" Gao Sheng exclaimed.

Fast! Incredibly fast! Combined with the power of extreme compression, piercing through his own fireball was effortless.

The fourth level! Gao Sheng was amazed and full of anticipation. He could already use the third level, so the fourth level must not be far away.

"Gao Sheng, 7500 points have been credited to your account. You now have 7582 points," said Xiao Ai on Gao Sheng's shoulder.

"So fast?"

Gao Sheng directly opened the treasure vault and found the three secret techniques from before.

I was about to redeem it when I suddenly stopped.

"No rush. I don't know if I'll upgrade to Heroic level immediately after passing the fourth level of the Sky Bridge, or if I'll upgrade after leaving Chaos City. If I upgrade immediately, I should be able to get a discount on the exchange."

"The most urgent task now is to find a suitable place to cultivate, preferably one with a systematic record of the cultivation left behind by the Mother Ancestor on the rooftop..."

"By the way, Chaos City has three treasures. Let's go take a look at the third one first."

Gao Sheng took off and flew towards the main gate of Chaos City.

……

Chaos City is a sacred cultivation ground for the entire human race in the universe. Because of the observation of 52 Chaos Steles, 52 major schools have been formed. Each school has many powerful individuals. If you can pass through the 18th level of the Bridge to Heaven, you can obtain permanent residency in Chaos City. Most of these individuals do not live in Chaos City, but those who reside there often establish their own sects and teach younger generations of cultivators. They are respectfully called sect leaders by the younger generation in Chaos City!

The lectures given by these sect leaders in Chaos City were different from ordinary public lectures on the laws; they were all related to the comprehension of the Chaos Stele.

Therefore, those who attend the classes are basically practitioners of the same school.

However, you must pass through the third level of the Sky Bridge to be qualified to attend the lecture. If you haven't even passed the first three levels, it means you haven't even scratched the surface of understanding the Chaos Stele and are not qualified to attend the lecture.

Within Chaos City, besides the City Lord's Mansion and the ubiquitous ordinary three-story houses, there are also many special buildings.

At this moment, on a mountainside some distance from the city lord's mansion in Chaos City, there was a small palace.

"Polaris, it's rare that you thought of me so soon after arriving in Chaos City." A woman in black waved her hand, and a plate of delicacies and fruits covered the stone table.

The woman in black had an exquisite face and a graceful figure, with a pair of black gauze wings behind her.

"Haha..." The red-haired man, Polaris King, who was over three meters tall and dressed in a white battle robe, sat down directly on the stone chair.

"Who doesn't know you're generous, Yu Li? This is Jin Lin Xue Lu? Haha, I got to mooch off you again."

The red-haired man picked up a crystal-clear glass from the stone table and took a big gulp.

"Drink slowly, you're wasting this precious drink by gulping it down like that!" The woman in black rolled her eyes at him.

"That felt great!" The red-haired man narrowed his eyes, savoring the moment for a long time before saying, "I'll probably be in seclusion for a long time this time... I heard there's a new batch of kids from the Virtual Universe Company?"

"Yes, there are a few promising talents among these young guys from the Virtual Universe Company," the woman in black nodded.

"Qian Li, what's up? Which little guy have you taken a fancy to?"

The woman in black shook her head: "I said there are a few promising talents, but I didn't say I wanted to take them as disciples. Among these youngsters, there are indeed a few who are quite good, but unfortunately, none of them chose the Mother Ancestor Chaos Stele."

The red-haired man had already obtained the information on this group of geniuses, and after glancing at it, he secretly shook his head.

"Indeed, our Mother Ancestor School has a small number of people to begin with. Among this batch of young guys, not many chose the Mother Ancestor Chaos Stele, and there are no geniuses worth paying attention to."

There are too many cultivators coming and going in Chaos City. Strong people like Qianli King usually don't care. Only when the genius battles and strong battles of the Virtual Universe Company or the Giant Axe Arena end, and thousands of universe-level little guys flood in at the same time, will it attract attention and become a topic of conversation.

The number of people cultivating the 52 Chaos Steles varies greatly. The most frequently chosen is the Giant Axe Chaos Stele, while the least chosen is the Cosmic Chaos Stele.

It's not because the Giant Axe Chaos Stele has the highest number of layers, but because the Giant Axe Chaos Stele guides people to comprehend the laws through combat, making it the most suitable cultivation method for most martial artists.

The second highest level of the Cosmic Chaos Monument is surprisingly the least chosen because it's incredibly difficult! It requires a deep understanding of time and space.

The laws of time are too ethereal and difficult to comprehend; even Gao Sheng can only vaguely sense a trace of them now.

Many cultivators can sense the laws of time because they cultivate the laws of lightning, light, and wind. However, even so, most of them eventually embark on the path of the laws of space.

The Mother Ancestor Chaos Stele is not chosen by many people; it can be ranked in the bottom five because it is too complicated!

……

Inside the palace, King Qianli and King Jixing simultaneously received an email. With a slight thought, they immediately knew the contents of the email.

Such powerful beings, unless they are in a life-or-death battle, must have a trace of consciousness constantly connected to the virtual universe.

"Hmm?" The two people who were drinking and chatting exchanged glances.

"A new kid from Chaos City actually made it to the fourth level on his first attempt at crossing the Sky Bridge?"

The two exchanged a glance. "Let's go take a look."

……

Not far from the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company on the mainland, there is a huge cosmic secret realm, a primordial secret realm!

This is the true headquarters of the virtual universe company. As for the headquarters continent next to the secret realm, it is just an artificial continent specially built to handle daily affairs because it is inconvenient to enter the secret universe.

Deep within this primeval realm, a mighty, rushing river flows, enveloping countless palace complexes.

In one of the palace complexes, in a side hall, boundless heat filled the entire hall. The temperature was so high that an ordinary realm lord would probably be burned to ashes upon entering.

The walls of the entire side hall emitted a strong blue light, but fortunately, the special material of the entire palace prevented the intense heat from being transmitted outside.

In the center of the side hall, there was a long platform where nine hammers of various sizes were striking each other, creating a constant clattering sound. An elderly man with gray hair, wearing a fiery red robe and a long, snow-white beard that reached his chest, stood in the hall, his eyes gleaming as he gazed at the long platform.

A moment later, the nine hammers vanished into thin air, and on the long platform, an extremely thin object, resembling a metal sheet, flew up and was picked up by the old man, who examined it closely.

After a long pause, he said softly, "Not bad...a slight improvement."

"Congratulations, teacher." Inside the hall, another young man with wings on his back and red markings on his face said with a smile.

"Yes, it's completely repaired. It's done well. Keep it safe and give it to the Venerable One," the old man said.

"Yes." The winged man put away the item and disappeared.

The old man stroked his beard and smiled, looking content.

"Oh?" The old man, who had also received the email, looked on with curiosity. "Let me take a look."

……

The Skybridge plane, on the central island.

One figure after another appeared.

"Polaris, you're here too? What, interested? I remember you were in the Flame Emperor Secret Realm, weren't you?" a man in blue armor said with a smile.

"They're out already," Polaris King smiled.

"Tie Nan, long time no see, haha..."

"A thousand times, that's rare indeed..."

"Haha, Qian Li, you want to take on another disciple?"

"No, just out of curiosity..."

"What? Even Huozang is here? That's rare..."

They were all laughing and joking, acting very familiar with each other.

……

Suddenly, the world went dark, and a giant in red armor with two horns on his head and two fangs protruding from his mouth appeared.

"Venerable One!"

The first thirty or so people who arrived were all taken aback and bowed in unison.

The armored giant smiled and nodded. "Hehe, do as you please."

It's described as a smile, but it's more frightening than not smiling at all.

At this moment, the overseer Baffin came over and respectfully asked, "Have you all come here for that promotion?"

"Yes, play it now."

"Play it and let's see."

The watchman, Baffin, simply sent emails to the relevant personnel; those who were interested would come and see for themselves.

Whoosh, a screen appeared out of thin air, starting directly with the battle between Gao Sheng and the first level guardian.

"More than thirty people have come at once, that's quite a lot, even Venerable Yuanlu has come," Bafen muttered to himself.
