Chapter 248 A Genius That Appears Once in a Billion Years!
"This..." The guard Baffin's voice suddenly trembled, and his face instantly changed from solemn to deathly pale. His fingers were shaking, and his voice cracked as he spoke.
"Nine Swords Venerable, True Evolution King—Xu Qing—he has already passed the thirteenth level of the Nine Universes Sky Bridge!"
"What?!"
The smile on the Nine Swords Venerable's face froze instantly, the relaxed aura surrounding him suddenly solidified, his eyes, which held the starry sea, narrowed sharply, and even the purple scales on his forehead shimmered with a faint light.
He practically leaped to Baffin's side in an instant, his tone unusually grave: "Say it again? The thirteenth floor?!"
The surrounding immortals were in an uproar. Those immortals who had been mocking Xu Qing earlier now felt like clowns.
"Thirteen levels? How is that possible! The twelfth level of the Bridge to Heaven is the ultimate gateway to the cosmic-level Mount Tongtian! That's a threshold that only a genius, appearing once in tens of millions of years, can even touch!"
"How long has he been cultivating in Chaos City? Are you kidding me?"
Tens of millions of years is not something that can be described simply as a long time.
That's a full 100 billion years!
A lifespan sufficient for an ordinary star to burn ten times over is enough for a star field to go from birth to being filled with life and then gradually fall silent.
Being able to pass the twelfth level at the cosmic level is already enough to make a genius stop and take notice of a cosmic venerable, but the thirteenth level is a completely different dimension!
"It's more than ten million years..." King Zhenyan took a deep breath, his voice trembling. As the leader of the Nine Universes lineage, he knew better than anyone the difficulty of the Bridge to Heaven.
"To break through the thirteenth level at the cosmic level is a genius that only appears once every hundred million epochs. To be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Kodi and Venerable Eclipse Fire, such talent, as long as they don't perish along the way, is almost a sure thing for them to become a cosmic Venerable, or even a high-level cosmic Venerable—"
"Moreover, he most likely possesses this primordial understanding of the universe from the original universe, which is truly terrifying—.—"
Hundreds of millions of epochs—ten times longer than tens of millions of epochs—enough time for a certain life form in the primordial universe to evolve from a primitive form of single-celled organisms to control stellar energy, and then to perish due to resource depletion, repeating this cycle hundreds of times.
Such geniuses are few and far between, even most of the universe's most powerful beings have never seen.
Baffin was already drenched in sweat. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sent out another mass email. When he sent the mass message before, he only mentioned the fifth level, so only some immortals and a few cosmic venerables responded.
The news from the thirteenth floor was beyond just "sensational"; it was a major event that could alarm the top combat forces of the human race!
As he compiled the latest clearance records into an encrypted email, he spoke rapidly, "I—I've already sent the message to all the Lords of the Universe and the Venerable Ones!"
"Retrieve Xu Chuangqiao's battle footage!"
The Nine Swords Venerable's voice carried an undeniable authority. He had completely lost his previous composure, and the fluctuations of the laws around him had become rapid. "I want to see with my own eyes how he passes the thirteenth level!"
"Yes!" Baffin didn't dare to delay and immediately connected to the core database of the Skybridge. The massive light screen instantly lit up in the center of the island square.
Just as the light screen lit up, a series of spatial fluctuations suddenly emanated from the void of the Tongtian Bridge dimension—one, two, ...
Three to hundreds of figures flashed out from the void one after another, each figure exuding an aura that made the immortals tremble. They were the cosmic venerables who had rushed over after receiving the news!
The island plaza, which was originally spacious and could accommodate thousands of people, was instantly packed with these Venerable Ones, and even the airspace above the sea was filled with powerful figures.
There were Venerables dressed in animal skins, exuding a wild and untamed aura; Venerables clad in golden armor, their law fluctuations as intense as the blazing sun; and several old men surrounded by chaotic energy. Even the Nine Swords Venerable had to bow in respect—they were veteran Venerables who had lived for trillions of epochs!
"A genius that appears only once every hundred million epochs? I'd like to see what kind of person he is!" An old man with white hair swept his gaze over Xu Qing on the light screen, his tone filled with anticipation. He was one of the earliest universe venerables of the human race, and he usually kept to himself in seclusion. This time, however, he was also alarmed by the news.
"That old devil Qianwu is really lucky; he actually found such a promising talent first!" Another Venerable in brocade robes looked at the light screen, his eyes full of envy. "If I could take him as my disciple, one of my disciples could also become a Universe Venerable!"
Upon seeing these cosmic sovereigns, the immortals around them fell silent, retreating to the edge and not daring to even breathe.
Normally, they are high and mighty immortal gods.
But compared to these supreme beings of the universe, they are nothing more than tiny ants crawling on the ground.
Normally, it would be incredibly difficult to even see a single cosmic venerable being, but now hundreds of them have arrived all at once. Such a grand occasion is something that might not be seen even once in hundreds of millions of epochs!
The once prominent Zhenyan King stood at the edge of the crowd, looking at the scene before him, and the last thought of taking on a disciple in his heart was completely extinguished.
A genius who appears only once every hundred million epochs is no longer someone he, a king-level immortal, can even dream of. Now, even cosmic venerables are fighting tooth and nail to snatch him up, and even the cosmic lord might be considering making a move.
All he could do was watch Xu Qing on the screen from afar, his heart filled with emotion.
Hundreds of thousands of years from now, the other party may become a supreme being in the universe, even surpassing my own position.
Thinking about this, King Zhenyan felt a great sense of loss.
The images on the light screen became clearer and clearer, and everyone finally saw the whole process of Xu Qing crossing the bridge. Xu Qing walked on the Tongtian Bridge as if he were strolling in a garden. Whether facing the basic guardians of the first level or the elite guardians of the ninth level, he simply raised his hand and swung it down cleanly. He crossed the bridge with an absolute crushing attitude, without even the slightest hesitation.
"How is this possible? He actually passed the first nine levels without activating the amplification effect of his divine weapon?"
Upon seeing this, the Nine Swords Venerable, the Southern Fox Kingdom Lord, and other Universe Venerables all had their pupils shrink suddenly, their eyes widening in disbelief.
"Just how terrifying is this kid's mental power amplification and comprehension of laws?!"
It's only natural that a peerless genius who can pass through the thirteenth level would instantly kill the guardians of the first nine levels, so this wouldn't surprise them.
To their shock, Xu Qing never activated the first level of the Divine Weapon!
It should be noted that even the telekinetic weapon commonly used by cosmic-level martial artists, the Sky Shuttle, has nine amplification levels, with the first level alone capable of amplifying telekinetic power three times!
Not to mention the Divine Weapon, which even immortals can rival!
The opponent on the ninth floor is using the sixth level of the Divine Weapon, "World of Swords," which has already reached its peak!
He passed through the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge without even using the first level of the Divine Weapon. It was as if someone had used a blade of grass to kill a fully armed person hiding inside a tank.
To a martial artist with even a slight understanding of the techniques, this scenario would be virtually impossible.
