Chapter 252 Paying Homage to the Primordial Ancestor, The Giant Axe Conference
The divine realm within the spatial interlayer.
Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
After several dozen days of reflection, the divine power of the Yan God Clan avatar was completely transformed, and its aura after the breakthrough gradually became more restrained, unlike its previous flamboyant nature.
"The Lord of the Universe..." Lin Yuan said with emotion.
Over a million epochs have passed, and he has gone from an insignificant realm lord to where he is today. He has walked this path for a long time, but looking back, it seems like only a moment.
"Next, it's time to meet the other universe lords of our race."
He entered the virtual universe with a thought.
……
Thunder Island, atop the central mountain range.
The exclusive palace complex of the Virtual Universe Company's lineage of universe masters is located here, each one magnificent and imposing.
As soon as Lin Yuan's figure materialized in the square in front of the palace, he saw that the Lord of Dragon Journey was already waiting there.
"Tianyun, come with me." The Lord of Dragons laughed. "You have successfully broken through to the level of the Universe Lord. This is a major event for my Virtual Universe Company. Chaos asked me to introduce you to the other Universe Lords in our lineage."
"Thank you for your trouble, Senior Longxing." Lin Yuan nodded slightly, but felt a sense of gratitude in his heart.
Back when he first entered Chaos City, he was just a minor realm lord, and he had to respectfully bow to any immortal god he met.
Now he is the master of the universe, and his status and position have undergone earth-shattering changes.
"arrive."
The Lord of Dragons stopped in his tracks; before him stood a magnificent palace.
The palace was entirely dark gold, its surface engraved with countless mysterious patterns, radiating a chilling aura of power.
"This is the palace of the Lord of Darkness," the Lord of Dragons introduced. "He is the most mysterious Lord of the Universe in my Virtual Universe Company lineage, and he rarely shows himself."
The palace doors opened silently, and a figure stepped out.
It was a tall, slender man dressed in a black robe, with a cold and stern face.
"Lord of Destiny," the other person said calmly. "Congratulations."
Lin Yuan bowed slightly: "Greetings, Lord of Darkness."
The Lord of Darkness nodded, said nothing more, and silently followed behind the two.
The Lord of Dragons didn't mind and continued leading them forward, introducing them to Lin Yuan as they went.
"The Lord of Darkness is the junior brother of the Lord of Chaos City and also a disciple of the Primordial Ancestor," the Lord of Dragons introduced as they walked. "His strength is comparable to that of Lord Peng Gong, and he is one of the few fifth-order Universe Lords in our race."
Lin Yuan silently made a note of it.
The Lord of Dragons pointed to another palace: "The second one, Lord of Youhou."
"Youhou is my disciple." Before he could speak, the Lord of Darkness behind him couldn't help but say, "Before your breakthrough, he was also the youngest Universe Lord in my Virtual Universe Company lineage."
The palace doors opened, and a figure stepped out.
He was a burly man with a fierce aura.
"Teacher!" He first bowed to the Lord of Darkness from afar, and then looked at Lin Yuan who was following behind Long Xing.
"Lord of Heavenly Fortune!" Lord Youhou patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder enthusiastically, a smile on his face. "Congratulations! My Virtual Universe Company finally has a new Lord of the Universe!"
Lin Yuan replied with a smile, "Lord Youhou, you are too kind."
"Don't call me Lord Youhou, it's too formal." The other party waved his hand, "Just call me Lord Youhou."
"Alright, Lord You." Lin Yuan readily agreed.
The four continued forward and arrived at the third palace.
"You should be very familiar with the Lord of Ice Peaks," the Lord of Dragon Walk said with a smile. "You were dealing with him when you applied for the Blood Crystal, so I won't go into too much detail. He should be waiting for us in Chaos."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"As for the Lord of Chaos City, you have already met him. He is the person in charge of my Virtual Universe Company and is second only to the founder of the Giant Axe in the entire human race."
As they spoke, the group arrived in front of a magnificent palace.
The palace was entirely silver-white, with its surface shimmering with mysterious, water-like patterns, exuding an aura of vastness.
"The Lord of Chaos City is waiting for us here," said the Lord of Dragons, stepping into the hall.
The hall was spacious, with a huge round table in the center and six thrones around it.
The Lord of Chaos City sat in the main seat, the Lord of Ice Peak sat to his left, and the other seats were empty.
"You've arrived?" The Lord of Chaos City looked up, his gaze falling on Lin Yuan. "Sit."
Lin Yuan sat down as instructed, and the Dragon Lord and the others followed suit.
"Tianyun, from this day forward, you will be the sixth Universe Lord of my Virtual Universe Company lineage," the Chaos City Lord said in a deep voice. "Your responsibility is not only to protect the human race, but also to uphold the honor of my Virtual Universe Company lineage."
Lin Yuan solemnly replied, "This disciple understands."
"Very good." The Chaos City Lord nodded. "Next, let's go see someone else."
"Who?" Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
"The Primordial Ancestor," the Chaos City Lord said, enunciating each word clearly.
……
Deep within the chaotic currents of air, lies a deathly silent void.
Six figures emerged from the air currents: the Lord of Chaos City, the Lord of Darkness, the Lord of Ice Peak, the Lord of Dragon Journey, the Lord of Netherworld, and Lin Yuan.
"We've arrived." The Lord of Chaos City stopped in his tracks.
Lin Yuan looked up and saw a majestic statue standing in the void in front of him.
He was a middle-aged man dressed in a white robe, slightly thin, with a smile on his face and eyes as deep as the starry sky.
He stood there quietly, yet seemed to be the center of the entire universe.
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, space, time... countless fluctuations of primordial laws emanated from the statue, intertwining to form a vast ocean of laws.
"This is the Primordial One." The Chaos City Lord's voice was filled with reverence. "The greatest being of my human race, the creator of the virtual universe."
Lin Yuan stared at the statue, a complex emotion welling up inside him.
Although he already knew the story of the original ancestor, he could still feel a sense of awe that transcended time and space when he saw the statue of the other party in person.
"Our teacher was incredibly powerful back then, traversing the universe and invincible in the world." The Chaos City Lord's voice was filled with boundless reverence. "Even the strongest beings in the universe were no match for our teacher."
"But the teacher was not satisfied with this. He wanted to transcend, to break through, and to defy the laws governing the original universe."
"In the end, the teacher fought a great battle with the original will of the universe and was suppressed here."
"Even so, the teacher still created the incredible secret technique of virtual universe, allowing our human race to spread virtual universe to every corner of the original universe."
"Teacher." The Lord of Chaos stepped forward and bowed. "My Virtual Universe Company has gained another Lord of the Universe. He is a disciple of Junior Brother Xingyu. Today, I have brought him to pay his respects to you."
The Star Prison Demon Lord was already a top overlord during the Primordial Era, and he had received instruction from the other party during his cultivation process. Therefore, the Chaos City Lord called him his junior brother.
The Lord of Darkness and the Lord of Ice Peaks also stepped forward to pay their respects.
Lin Yuan followed the Lord of Dragon Journey and the Lord of Netherworld, standing a little behind them.
Lin Yuan took a deep breath, stepped forward, and respectfully bowed to the statue: "Disciple Tianyun pays respects to Grandmaster."
As soon as he finished speaking, the fluctuations of laws surrounding the statue seemed to tremble slightly.
Lin Yuan looked up and vaguely saw a glint of light flash in its eyes, as if the consciousness of the Primordial Ancestor was watching him.
"Alright," the Chaos City Lord said, "Our teacher is aware of your existence. Let's go."
The group turned and left the mysterious space.
……
On the way back, the Lord of Dragons said with a smile, "Tianyun, there is another meeting that you need to attend. It will serve as proof that you have truly entered the core of my human race."
"What meeting?"
"The Giant Axe Conference," the Lord of Ice Peaks replied, his face solemn. "This is a conference that only those of our human race who are at least Universe Lords can attend. It is named after the Giant Axe because it is usually convened by its founder."
"This is the highest-level meeting of the human race, where important matters concerning the fate of the race are discussed. This meeting is to welcome you to become one of us."
Lin Yuan nodded: "Understood."
Virtual Universe, Temple of the Giant Axe.
This is a temple suspended in endless darkness, surrounded by starlight, as if isolated from the entire universe.
Inside the hall, a long, bluish-gray stone table was placed in the center, with a row of stone chairs on each side of the table, and a larger stone chair in the main seat.
At this moment, many people were already sitting on the stone chairs on both sides of the stone table.
Some of them were covered in scales, while others wore ancient robes, but without exception, they all exuded a terrifying aura that made one's heart tremble.
The cosmic rulers of the human race have gathered here.
"Haha, why hasn't that kid Tianyun arrived yet?" A rough voice rang out. The speaker was a tall, imposing man with long blond hair, none other than the Void Gold Master of the Giant Axe Arena lineage.
"What's the rush? He just broke through not long ago, he definitely needs time to adapt to his sudden surge in strength."
Another cosmic ruler responded with a smile. He was the Lord of Desolation of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, whose body was covered with complex scales and had three sharp horns on his head.
"I heard Engineer Peng say that Tianyun's divine body is over 20 billion kilometers long?" a gentle voice rang out.
The speaker was another universe master from the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, who resembled a refined middle-aged man with a very gentle aura.
"That's right, Long Xing and Peng Gong saw it with their own eyes." The Lord of Void Gold nodded. "That kid is a monster. All of our divine bodies combined are not as big as his."
"A large divine body doesn't necessarily mean strength, but a divine body this large is indeed enough to inspire despair," sighed the Lord of the Wasteland. "And his genetic level isn't low either..."
"Tsk tsk." The Lord of Void Gold laughed, "Our human race has gained another mighty general."
Just then, footsteps came from outside the hall.
Six figures filed in, none other than the Lord of Chaos City, the leader of the Virtual Universe Company and the lineage of universe masters.
"chaos!"
"Chaos, you have arrived!"
"Congratulations on your breakthrough!"
All the lords of the universe greeted him.
The Lord of Chaos City smiled and nodded, leading Lin Yuan and the others to sit down at the stone table.
Lin Yuan sat beside the Lord of Ice Peak, his gaze sweeping over every Universe Lord present.
Eighteen cosmic lords gathered together.
"Gentlemen," the Lord of Chaos City began, "today's Giant Axe Meeting is to welcome the Lord of Heavenly Fortune to become one of us."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lin Yuan had barely gotten a general idea of who the person was when a figure suddenly appeared in the main seat.
It was a giant savage with long, flowing hair, carrying a massive axe on his back, emanating a terrifying aura that made time and space tremble.
The founder of the giant axe, the pillar supporting the human race.
"Giant Axe." All the lords of the universe bowed in respect.
The other party nodded slightly, then his gaze fell on Lin Yuan: "Tianyun, this is the first time we have officially met."
Although they sat together at the highest meeting, there was a cloud of mist separating the thrones of different strengths, so Lin Yuan had never actually seen the other's true face.
"The founder of the Great Axe." He bowed respectfully.
"No need for formalities." The founder of the giant axe waved his hand. "It's good that you were able to break through to the level of a universe master using the path of the Beast God. This shows that you not only have talent, but also perseverance."
"Our human race has gained another pillar of talent."
He paused, then looked around at all the lords of the universe: "Today, besides welcoming the Heavenly Mandate, I have gathered you all here to discuss a few other matters."
"First, should Tianyun's identity be made public?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell into deep thought.
After a moment, the Lord of Qingdong spoke first: "Tianyun has just broken through, and I think it is not appropriate to make it public immediately."
"Youhou has recently been too bloodthirsty in the Cosmic Sea, which has already aroused the vigilance of the other three peak clans. If he were to reveal the Heavenly Fortune again, it would likely make them even more wary, and they might even unite to exert pressure."
"I disagree." The Lord of Void Gold shook his head. "Tianyun broke through to become the Lord of the Universe using the Path of the Beast God. The Ancestral God Sect will definitely know. We can't hide it from them even if we want to."
"Moreover, Tianyun has been roaming the universe and has clashed with various forces. Even if we don't make it public, they can basically guess what's going on."
"Xu Jin is right."
The Lord of Desolation echoed, "Instead of hiding it, let's be open about it. The breakthrough in Heavenly Fortune is the glory of our human race; why conceal it?"
"Moreover, Tianyun not only has an avatar with an extremely high genetic level, but also the top-level treasure Flame Sky Palace protecting him. His strength is probably not far from that of a fourth-order universe master. Other forces simply cannot do anything to him."
The lords of the universes discussed the matter, and their opinions differed.
