Stepping into the Thunder Island plane again, Lin Yuan was in high spirits. He had successfully broken through to the next level, and his weapon should have been completed as well, making it a double celebration.

But the moment he saw Tesilek, the awkward yet guilty expression on the other's face made his heart sink.

"Ahem, Lin Yuan, I didn't expect you to have already broken through to the Marquis level. I congratulate you in advance. Don't forget to invite me to the banquet after you are officially granted your title."

The bearded man forced a stiff smile: "Let's have a little celebration for you today. It's on me, Lin Yuan. Order whatever you like."

Although not skilled in combat, Teshilek was still a peak Marquis-level expert, so it was easy for him to see Lin Yuan's current strength.

Sensing something was wrong from the other man's expression, Lin Yuan didn't want to waste time on pleasantries and went straight to the point: "Celebrations can happen anytime, but now, Lord Weapon Forging, please tell me, what exactly happened to my spear?"

"Nothing happened. I just heard that you broke through to the rank of Marquis and wanted to discuss with you whether we should reschedule..." He tried to argue, but Lin Yuan shut him down with one sentence.

"From the time I completed my breakthrough to the time I logged in to see you, it was only thirty minutes. I didn't even attempt to cross the Heavenly Bridge. How did you know that?"

"This..." The bearded man stammered, clearly very unhappy.

If Lin Yuan were still a high-level military commander, he wouldn't need to explain so much; he could simply say the refining failed. But since the other party is now at the same level as him, he naturally can't take the responsibility upon himself. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good for the other party to keep thinking about him all the time.

Having thought this through, Tesilek made a decision. After downing a bottle of liquor, he slurred a few words and, feeling dizzy, put his arm around Lin Yuan, saying, "Brother, this really isn't my fault!"

"Hiccup~ The materials you provided are amazing. I've been researching them day and night for hundreds of thousands of years before I dared to attempt to forge them. I guarantee this is absolutely the best weapon I've ever forged in my life, far superior to any weapon made from G-grade metal!"

"But Yan Lie saw it and forced me to buy it. He's one of the seven King-level experts of the Yan God Clan. Their clan is too domineering; I can't afford to offend them!"

He let out another burp and said seriously, "I can't get it back for you. Besides, the strength of your materials is too high. If you reforge it, someone will probably try to buy it anyway. How about I give you two G-grade weapons instead? That way, there won't be any more trouble."

"Let it go!" After understanding what had happened, Lin Yuan knew he couldn't blame him.

Although the Yan God Clan is currently the strongest lineage of the human race, the Yan Emperor feared that others would threaten his position, so he held all the clan's resources in his own hands. As a result, despite their genetic level being no worse than that of special life forms, not a single member of the entire Yan God Clan has been able to break through to the level of a Universe Venerable.

Those seven powerful kings had been suppressed by the Yan Emperor, which led them to try to snatch back any good things they saw while training outside. Teshilek said that the other party forced them to buy, but most likely they only gave them a small amount of money. Under such circumstances, it would be good enough if he was willing to compensate them.

If the other party is willing to take responsibility, Lin Yuan won't hold a grudge. He shook his head and said, "I only paid for forging one F-grade weapon; I don't need anything more."

"Really?" Tesilek jumped up in surprise.

Lin Yuan never expected that he could sober someone up with just one sentence.

"That's fine!" He thought to himself, feeling bored. Next time, he would make sure that the person he entrusted with something had a good reputation and was capable enough. Such a person would not keep his things after performing exceptionally well, and it would also prevent others from stealing them.

"Alright, alright!" With the matter resolved, Teshilek seemed to have forgotten his earlier promise to treat everyone. He stood up and said, "You're working at the Global Warehouse now, right? I'll have the Transportation Department deliver the goods there. Let me know when you receive them."

"Um……"

Lin Yuan gave a casual reply, and after the other person left, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Yan Lie, right? I'll remember you!"

……

In the virtual universe, in the Tongtian Bridge dimension, Lin Yuan once again entered the magnificent central island.

Since he broke through the fundamental laws of space during his journey on the Dou Qi Continent, his record is still at the thirteenth level, which was hundreds of thousands of years ago. This time, he came to break through the fifteenth level or even higher.

Although if Lin Yuan directly emailed Lord Candri to explain his strength, and the other party would fulfill his promise after confirming that there was no problem, how could the single option of internal referral compare to the number of people he attracted after demonstrating his talent?

Although I feel I can reach that level without the guidance of a powerful figure, the culture of cliques is something I can't avoid anywhere:

Behind every King-level expert is at least one King-level teacher, and the ultimate King-level expert is likely to have a Universe Venerable or even a Universe Overlord supporting them. These are the relationships Lin Yuan needs. Otherwise, by the time he has the ability to cultivate someone to immortality, his brother Lin Lei will have already died of old age!

He has been guarding the Bridge to Heaven since the establishment of the virtual universe, which has been hundreds of billions of years ago, and he is very familiar with anyone who comes here.

Baffin clearly remembered that 300,000 years ago, the other party had barely managed to pass the thirteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven, but now he had directly broken through to the Marquis level?

The best science fiction novel voted by Cola Novels readers, "Swallowing the Stars: The Golden Finger Only Arrives When I'm Almost a God?" is among the top picks!

He couldn't help but marvel: "Could it be that the cosmic rules, which greatly reduce his comprehension of the laws after breaking through to immortality, have no effect on him?"

"Lord Baffin!" While the other man was thinking, Lin Yuan had already arrived at his side and bowed respectfully.

"Little guy, are you trying to give the company's immortal gods a surprise this time?" Baffin winked at him and said mysteriously, "There are fewer people like you who can rise from a junior military lord to a marquis in just over a million years than the champion of every genius battle. There will definitely be many king-level powerhouses interested in you."

"Lord Sheparin, I really would like to give it a try." Lin Yuan thanked him modestly, but accepted all the praise without hesitation.

"Looks like the little guy is very confident," Baffin said with a smile. "There are still two people ahead of you who need to cross the Yan Cang Sky Bridge. You can start after they're done."

"The emails congratulating you on passing the fifteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven and recommending you to the powerful kings have been prepared and are ready to be sent as soon as you come out. Don't let me down, little guy."

"Yes, Lord Baffin!" Lin Yuan nodded and stepped aside to wait.

Before long, the people ahead of him had all finished their challenges, but none of them had successfully passed through to a higher level. Then, with Baffin's reminder, he flew towards the entrance of the Yancang Sky Bridge.

As Lin Yuan ventured deeper into the system, he soon arrived at the fourteenth level. This was a star system, in which a system of twelve planets and satellites revolved around the star. The bridge to heaven extended from inside the star into the vast universe, its brilliant light illuminating the entire star system.

When Lin Yuan appeared on the bridge in the universe, the central star trembled slightly, and the huge gravitational tide made the entire space unstable.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar voice rang out: "Choose your opponent: martial artist, mentalist, or illusionist. Defeat any one of them to pass the fourteenth floor."

"I choose the martial artist!"

Rumble!

The sky darkened!

Almost all the light converged in front of him, and soon condensed into a powerful figure with a black-clad face and wearing dark gold armor.

The other party seemed somewhat surprised upon seeing Lin Yuan: "Little guy, why are you back so soon? I remember you couldn't even withstand a single move from me three hundred thousand years ago before you perished. Now you're confident you can take revenge?"

"Enough talk, let's get straight to the point! This time I'll leave with your head!" Lin Yuan didn't want to waste any more words with him.

"good!"

Even though it's just a person simulated in a virtual universe, the gatekeeper still has his own emotions. He laughed angrily, "I'd like to see just how much you've improved over the years, enough to make you so arrogant!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a streak of dark golden light and charged forward, his spear pointing directly at Lin Yuan's brow.

Ding!Ding!Ding!

They exchanged hundreds of blows in a very short time. Lin Yuan precisely blocked every thrust of his opponent with the tip of his spear. He even had the mind to neutralize the aftershocks generated when the two clashed.

Clang! Bang! Boom!

From marksmanship skills to direct physical clashes, and finally to the intense collision of laws, Lin Yuan completely outclassed the gatekeeper in every aspect, making the opponent realize that he had been toying with him.

In less than a minute, he fully understood his situation. He stopped making futile blocks in the face of Lin Yuan's attacks and tried to turn the tide of the battle by fighting to the death.

but!

Chi!

The fiery wings, hundreds of feet long, tore through the sky and cleaved the gatekeeper in two at the waist. The two halves of the corpse floated silently in the empty space, giving people an indescribable sense of eeriness.

The Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame tears through space!

Even though it can no longer be refined into the body after becoming a special life form, it doesn't mean Lin Yuan can't use it. He has already mastered the essence of the laws it contains, and it's quite easy for him to imitate it by combining the laws of fire and space.

The situation on the fifteenth level of the Sky Bridge was no different, except that the guardian was stronger, and Lin Yuan used his superior strength to crush him.

……

"Lin Yuan, I watched the video of you passing the fifteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven. You were able to integrate the laws of fire and space so perfectly. You are very suitable to walk the path of the Beast God."

I am currently cultivating in the Ancestral God Sect, and I can try to help you obtain the inheritance of the Crimson Flame God General. If you succeed, you may even have the opportunity to leap to the realm of the Universe Venerable.

If you are willing to become my disciple, you can come to my residence to discuss the details.

"King Cangyuan!"

After Lin Yuan returned from the Tongtian Bridge dimension, he received more than twenty emails in just two days, all from the internal channels of the Virtual Universe Company. Among them, this one was the most noteworthy.

Although King Cangyuan was the strongest among these people, Lin Yuan still had concerns. The human race only had a few thousand people in the Ancestral God Sect, and they didn't even have a single Divine General. Their power was too weak, and it was basically impossible for them to compete with other races. The so-called inheritance of the Crimson Flame Divine General was probably just a pie in the sky made by King Cangyuan.

"Who should I choose?"

Just as he was struggling with this dilemma, a new message completely pulled him out of his confusion.

"Lin Yuan, have you heard? Lord Purple Lightning King has perished on the battlefield beyond the realms!"
