LRAB Chapter 554 Glory World, Challenge
Chapter 554 Glory World, Challenge
Chu Yang didn't dislike Venerable Dongqin at all; on the contrary, he thought he was a talented person.
As a cosmic sovereign, he should stand at the pinnacle of his race. Even if he is not the kind of powerful figure who can open up a cosmic kingdom, he is not far off.
Venerable Dongqin led Chu Yang to a magnificent palace and respectfully said, "Venerable Wanfa, this is the palace prepared for you. Please enter. If you have brought any soul servants with you, they may serve you within the palace!"
Chu Yang stepped into the palace, where the interior was luxuriously decorated and filled with a dazzling array of rare and precious treasures.
It's clear that a lot of thought went into creating this palace.
On the large table inside the hall was a summary of various intelligence reports about the Ancestral Mystic Realm.
Chu Yang smiled and shook his head. Venerable Dongqin had prepared quite a lot.
"Venerable Wanfa, if you need anything else, please don't hesitate to ask," Venerable Dongqin said solicitously.
Chu Yang looked around and said with a faint smile, "Not for now, Venerable Dongqin, you should go back first."
"Yes." Venerable Dongqin bowed and withdrew.
After Venerable Dongqin left, Chu Yang casually waved his hand, and the palace doors slammed shut.
The luxurious decorations inside the hall were like illusions to him, his gaze fixed on the mountain of intelligence scrolls piled on the table.
"Ha, this Venerable Dongqin certainly knows how to handle things."
Chu Yang chuckled and casually picked up a scroll.
The scroll is made of a special material that feels cool to the touch, and it is densely covered with information about the ancestral mystical realm.
Chu Yang scanned the information quickly, filtering out irrelevant details and focusing on the location of the strongest World Tree.
The strongest World Tree, a top-tier cosmic overlord, is even comparable to the Lord of the Universe because it is born with the ability to control spacetime.
It is also a special kind of life form with a gene multiplication rate of six thousand times. On the tree island where it lives, there are also eight World Trees of Offspring.
Chu Yang knew that when Luo Feng was at the World Lord level, he wanted to obtain a leaf from the World Tree to nurture his third avatar. After going through great lengths, he finally obtained it, but ultimately the nurturing failed.
This shows the uniqueness of the World Tree and the special life forms it possesses; how could it be conceived so simply?
Otherwise, those powerful beings with the ability to create clones would all try to obtain branches and leaves of the World Tree, and even the Ancestral God Sect would find it difficult to stop them.
"It won't be that easy for me to get a branch of the World Tree!" Chu Yang shook his head and sighed, then continued reading.
Three days later, the guardian beast god descended and granted permissions to the newly arrived inheritors, including Chu Yang.
In front of the main palace of Zijing Island is a huge platform plaza. In the center of the plaza, three fountain water curtains are the teleportation channels to the three major locations.
This guardian beast god, at the level of a cosmic lord, left after granting the authority as if it were a routine matter.
Only those with the necessary authority can receive the inheritance; this is one of the rules of Bauhinia Island.
In addition, the guardian beast god also gave Chu Yang a brain-like item. This was a sensor from the Glory World, similar to a consciousness sensor in the virtual universe. However, this was a virtual world created by the Ancestral God Sect, and its coverage was far less extensive than that of the virtual universe.
On Zijing Island, there are over 100 million inheritors, and many also cultivate directly in the square.
Chu Yang walked out of the palace and flew directly towards the water curtain of the inheritance site.
He did not conceal his aura; on the contrary, he deliberately released a trace of divine pressure.
Many inheritors in the square noticed Chu Yang and felt his pressure, which was comparable to that of a cosmic overlord. Many of them showed surprise.
"Cosmic overlord?"
"No, it's not the cosmic overlord... I recognize him, it's the Venerable of All Laws!"
"Who?"
"You probably don't know, but in the last few centuries, a monstrous talent has emerged among humanity, who, at the Immortal level, has already slain two cosmic overlords!"
"Hiss~"
The inheritors in the square, those at the immortal level, and even the Venerables, all gasped in astonishment.
"Slay two cosmic overlords? That's a load of bull! How could an immortal-level being possibly kill cosmic overlords?"
A slightly high-pitched voice came from the crowd, full of doubt.
The speaker was a short, alien creature with two curved horns on its head and eerie green skin.
Chu Yang also heard these words. He stopped and turned to look at the Siren Venerable, his eyes filled with a coldness: "Who are you?"
The Sirens held his head high, meeting Chu Yang's gaze without fear: "I am the Sirens!"
As a high-level cosmic venerable, the Sirens Venerable has the right to be proud. Among the venerables in this plaza, his strength is considered top-notch.
Within the human realm, even the rulers of some interstellar nations might not be his match.
The surrounding crowd began to whisper among themselves. Some thought the Sirens were courageous, while others thought he was courting death.
The Venerable of Ten Thousand Laws earned his reputation through killing, and what's more, he didn't just kill ordinary cosmic overlords!
The Sirens Venerable was only acting because fighting was forbidden on this Purple Thorn Island; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to be so abrupt.
Chu Yang chuckled lightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Siren Venerable, I wonder how many Glory Points you have?"
"Three thousand one hundred points? What? You're a newbie, and you dare challenge me? Besides, don't you only have three honor points?"
"Who said I only have 3 points?"
Chu Yang smiled slightly and looked at Venerable Fei Hai beside him. The latter immediately understood his meaning.
He then challenged Chu Yang to a duel.
Chu Yang accepted it directly.
A minute later, Chu Yang's account balance reached 6 points. He challenged Chu Yang to another battle... and accepted. This continued for nine times, with the Glory Points doubling each time. In the end, Venerable Fei Hai lost all of his more than 9 Glory Points to Chu Yang.
There are no rules in the world of Glory that prohibit multiple challenges, nor are there any rules on how many Glory Points a player can accumulate in a gambling battle. That's why Chu Yang has such confidence.
Afterwards, Venerable Fei Hai contacted two other human Venerables with whom he had a good relationship, and they also lost a total of more than 3,000 Glory Points to Chu Yang in the same manner.
At this point, less than half an hour had passed.
"Now, three thousand points is enough! I challenge you to a three-thousand-glory-point battle. Do you dare to accept?" Chu Yang looked calmly at the Siren Venerable.
Sirens' expression changed; he knew he was now in a difficult situation.
But to back down like this would be too shameful. In the world of Glory, everyone has the same divine body, uses the same weapons, and has no talent secrets or treasures.
More importantly, Chu Yang is only an Immortal and has never even received a single inheritance, while Siren Venerable has already reached the fourth level of inheritance!
This battle tests more the inheritor's understanding of the laws!
Sirens had absolute confidence in himself.
The Sirens' face turned pale and then flushed, as if he had swallowed a fly. The surrounding inheritors who had come to watch the spectacle also began to stir, with all sorts of strange cries and whistles rising and falling.
"Siren, are you scared? The Venerable of Ten Thousand Laws is a ruthless character who has even killed the overlord of the universe!" A burly man with bulging muscles shouted in a deep voice, his tone tinged with mockery.
"Fear? Would I, the Siren Venerable, fear an Immortal?"
The Sirens, neck stiff and trying to maintain his composure, said, "It's just three thousand Glory Points. I'll gamble! I hope you won't regret it after you lose!"
Three thousand Glory Points is no small amount for him. If he loses, it's equivalent to losing thirty chances to inherit!
"I accept your challenge!" Siren Venerable sneered.
Chu Yang's lips curled into a slight smile: "Alright, that's straightforward! Let's begin then."
With that, he directly challenged the Sirens.
The Sirens snorted coldly and pressed the accept button.
The next moment, their consciousnesses were pulled into the world of Glory.
In the battle world of Glory, the two stood on a vast plain, a hundred meters apart.
Chu Yang and the Sirens are both divine beings of the same level, and both use the standard longswords provided by the Glory World.
"Venerable One of Ten Thousand Laws, I admit you have some skill, but in the world of Glory, victory cannot be won by external means!"
The Sirens said menacingly, "I will show you what true power is!"
Chu Yang smiled noncommittally, ignoring the Siren Venerable's clamor.
Battle begins!
The Siren Venerable flashed, transforming into a green afterimage as he rushed straight towards Chu Yang. The longsword in his hand gleamed with a chilling light, carrying sharp laws, and aimed directly at Chu Yang's throat.
Chu Yang remained still, merely shifting his body slightly to easily dodge the Siren Venerable's attack.
Comparing his understanding of the laws with Chu Yang would be asking for trouble. Putting aside everything else, Chu Yang has already fully integrated and mastered the inheritance of the Demonic Sound God General. The understanding of the laws contained in this inheritance alone is enough for Chu Yang to crush the Siren Venerable.
If we were to truly assess the level of Chu Yang's current understanding of the laws, he has thoroughly comprehended all ten fundamental laws and the eight lower-level laws, and he has also surpassed 90% of the understanding of the laws of time and space.
It can be said that most of the universe's overlords cannot compare to Chu Yang in terms of their understanding of the laws!
The Sirens' attack missed, and he was startled.
He originally thought that Chu Yang, being an immortal, no matter how talented or monstrous he was, would not be able to evade his attack, which contained the power of the laws of time.
But reality slapped him in the face.
"Interesting. He's stronger than those ordinary Venerables! He already shows some understanding of the laws of time!"
A hint of mockery flashed in Chu Yang's eyes as he said, "With this little skill, you think you can teach me what real strength is?"
Siren Venerable's face turned ashen, and he said angrily, "Boy, don't be so arrogant!"
Before he finished speaking, the Sirens launched another attack. His figure was as fast as lightning, and his long sword conjured countless sword shadows. Time seemed to stand still as he attacked Chu Yang like a storm.
Chu Yang remained standing in the same spot, his figure as immovable as a mountain.
Faced with the Sirens' frenzied attacks, he simply swung his longsword with a casual gesture. The seemingly simple action contained an incredibly profound understanding of the laws.
Dangdang Dangdang!
The sounds of metal clashing were incessant as Chu Yang blocked all of the Sirens' attacks.
Not only that, Chu Yang's counterattack followed.
Chu Yang's swordsmanship appeared simple, but in reality, it contained powerful laws. Every strike was incredibly precise, aiming directly at the Siren Venerable's vital points.
The Siren Venerable was shocked. He had not expected that Chu Yang's comprehension of the laws would be so high, far exceeding his imagination.
"Impossible! How could an immortal like you possess such a powerful understanding of the laws of time!" Siren Venerable roared in disbelief.
He sensed an extremely abundant source of time principles from Chu Yang's swordsmanship. Compared to Chu Yang, the trace of time principles he had comprehended was like a drop of water compared to the ocean.
Chu Yang sneered: "You frog in a well, what you see is just the tip of the iceberg."
"Alright, we can finish now!"
Chu Yang gently swung his longsword, and a powerful force of time law slammed towards the Siren Venerable.
"Time rewinds... You... You are the master of the universe..."
Sirens were terrified, and their voices became shrill, like a rooster being choked.
"Impossible! How could an immortal possibly control time reversal! You... who are you?!"
Before he could finish speaking, the power of the Time Law erupted completely, engulfing the Sirens like a monstrous wave.
Under the immense power of time reversal, the Sirens seemed to return to the past, their strength rapidly declining. Ultimately, their divine bodies could not withstand the pressure and collapsed.
In the real world, Sirens suddenly opened his eyes, his face pale and his body covered in cold sweat.
He was breathing heavily, staring at the virtual screen in front of him, still shaken.
The screen displayed the battle result: Sirens defeated!
"This...how is this possible..."
The Sirens murmured to themselves, their eyes filled with disbelief.
An immortal being actually defeated him in the world of Glory, and it was a crushing victory!
When those around saw the Sirens' expression, they knew without asking who had won and who had lost the battle.
The onlookers were also shocked. They had thought it was an evenly matched battle, and even favored the Sirens.
After all, the Sirens Venerable is a well-established cosmic Venerable, while the All-Laws Venerable is merely an immortal. In the battle world, although everyone's divine bodies are the same, in terms of laws, the Venerable naturally has a greater advantage.
Some people even feel that the gap between the two is like a chasm.
However, to everyone's surprise, the result was completely unexpected. The Venerable of Ten Thousand Laws defeated the Venerable of Sirens with overwhelming force, forcing them to reassess the Venerable of Ten Thousand Laws' strength.
The Sirens left the world of Glory in a daze, surrounded by many of his enemies who mocked him.
"Tsk tsk, Sirens, I never thought you'd end up like this, getting taken down by an Immortal."
A loud laugh rang out, filled with sarcasm. The speaker was a Venerable named Axe Dragon, whose divine body was over a hundred meters tall, and who had always been at odds with Venerable Siren.
Siren Venerable's face turned ashen. He glared fiercely at Axe Dragon Venerable, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.
He didn't want to continue making a fool of himself here.
The news of Chu Yang's victory over the Sirens in the Glory World swept across the entire Purple Thorn Island like a hurricane.
Countless inheritors discussed the matter animatedly, expressing shock and awe at Chu Yang's strength.
"This Venerable Wanfa is truly a hidden master; he was actually able to defeat Venerable Siren."
"The Siren Venerable is considered one of the top fourth-level inheritors on the entire Purple Thorn Island, yet he's still inferior to an Immortal in his comprehension of the laws?"
"This Venerable One of All Laws will surely become the Lord of the Universe in the future!"
Similar debates unfolded throughout Zijing Island. Chu Yang's victory was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
At the eye of the storm, Chu Yang appeared unusually calm.
After leaving the battle world, he directly posted a message on the Glory World public channel: "I am Venerable Wanfa. Today is my first day entering the Glory World. I accept the challenge of any strong person. Each battle will start with at least 100 Glory Points, with no upper limit."
These words caused an uproar throughout the virtual world. (End of Chapter)
