Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 138 Importance

In the virtual universe, on Golden Light Island, inside the temple of the Golden Light Marquis.

Latte, dressed in a long black robe, was waiting there anxiously.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and a burly figure dressed in a golden robe appeared in the temple.

This figure was none other than Jin Guanghou, who had been teleported back from the Qianwu Continent.

No immortal deities usually appear on Golden Light Island, and most of the Golden Light Marquis's family members have passed away. Therefore, the Golden Light Marquis has set his location in the virtual universe to the Qianwu Continent.

That's where the truly powerful gather.

Upon receiving Latte's message, Jin Guanghou immediately teleported back to his temple from the Qianwu Continent.

"Father, you've finally arrived!" Latte exclaimed hurriedly.

"What happened that made you so eager to see me?" Marquis Jin Guang asked with a smile as he glanced at his son.

"Father, Junior Brother Yang Wu has just comprehended the eighth level of the Flame Domain!" Latte replied, slightly excited.

"What did you say?" Jin Guanghou looked incredulous.

The eighth level of the Flame Domain was nothing to Jin Guanghou.

But if it were placed on a small creature of the Eternal Star level, it would be astonishing enough.

As for Yang Wu?

When he first became an apprentice, he had only reached the fifth level of understanding, but how long has it been?

"Father, this Junior Brother Yang Wu's talent is truly terrifying! Many peerless geniuses are amazing at the beginning, but their comprehension of domains and laws slows down as they progress. But Junior Brother's progress is becoming more and more astonishing!"

"He's only been born a few decades ago, yet he's already reached the eighth level of the realm. This is absolutely a genius that only appears once every few million years in our Qianwu Universe Kingdom. Father, you should pay even more attention to him!"

Jin Guanghou reached out and pressed down lightly.

Latte was about to say something more, but seeing his father's serious expression, he stopped talking.

"I understand what you're trying to say!" Marquis Jin Guang nodded.

Back then, Marquis Jin Guang participated in the Cosmic Genius Battle, which was only open to those at the Hengxing level. Therefore, he understood the significance of the Eighth Realm better than others.

The Cosmic Battle of Unparalleled Geniuses, held once every five thousand years, typically sees hundreds of Eternal Star-level geniuses emerge from within the Qianwu Cosmic Kingdom who have crossed the threshold of the Laws.

These people will occupy several hundred spots among the top one thousand in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, while the remaining spots will be contested by geniuses at the eighth and ninth levels of the Domain, and perhaps, even some geniuses at the seventh level of the Domain with astonishing combat power will try to get in.

In other words, even if the battle of the universe's most outstanding geniuses were to start now, as long as Yang Wu's combat ability and luck are not too bad, he has a very high chance of breaking into the top 1,000 in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom and finally being able to enter the Qianwu Secret Realm!

Moreover, and most importantly, Yang Wu advanced from the fifth to the eighth level of his Domain in less than a year. Meanwhile, the Universal Genius Battle still has a full three years to go!

"Perhaps, this time I can cultivate a peerless genius who can break into the top 1,000 in the universe!" Jin Guanghou thought to himself.

It should be noted that there are a total of 1008 human universe nations. The Universe Peerless Genius Battle only selects the top 1,000 each time. Even if each universe nation only has one spot, there are still eight universe nations that have no spots.

In other words, even the Qianwu Universe Kingdom cannot guarantee that every genius will successfully break into the top 1,000 in the overall ranking of the entire universe in every genius battle.

Therefore, if Marquis Jin Guang can truly cultivate a genius who breaks into the top 1,000 in the universe, he will definitely leave a better impression on the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom.

Moreover, Jin Guanghou had heard that the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom placed greater emphasis on cultivating geniuses for humanity than other cosmic rulers.

Thinking of this, Jin Guanghou quickly asked, "Latte, are you with Yang Wu now?"

Latte paused for a moment, then quickly replied, "Yes, Father, we are currently returning to Rhine Star!"

Latte had already contacted Jin Guanghou as soon as he saw Yang Wu comprehend the eighth level of the domain. For Latte, a peak Domain Lord, sending a wisp of his consciousness into the virtual universe was a piece of cake.

"Do you carry the token I gave you with you at all times?" Marquis Jin Guang continued to ask.

"Of course, I've never let the token out of my sight!" Latte suddenly realized what Jin Guanghou was planning to do and quickly asked, "Father, are you going to...?"

"Wait for me where I am!" Jin Guanghou left these words before his consciousness departed from the virtual universe.

……

The battlefield beyond the borders, the seventh battlefield, the Flame Sacrifice Continent.

"I am Marquis Jin Guang. I have urgent business to attend to and must leave the extraterritorial battlefield. Good luck to everyone!"

After Jin Guanghou's consciousness returned from the virtual universe, he immediately sent the message that he was about to leave the extraterritorial battlefield to some of his allies.

For the past few thousand years, Marquis Jin Guang has frequently operated in a specific region, often fighting alongside his allies against common enemies. Therefore, he still needs to give his farewell before leaving.

Otherwise, if allies encounter enemies and ask for his help after he leaves, things might go wrong.

After receiving replies from some allies, Marquis Jin Guang immediately went to a secluded place.

Then, Jin Guanghou emitted a strong aura of law, and his eyes looked towards the endless void.

Suddenly, an incredibly dazzling light shone from Jin Guanghou's body, instantly radiating outwards and spreading throughout the universe within a radius of several kilometers.

hum!

Enveloped in the light, the Golden Lord could vaguely see his own temple in the distance.

call out!

Jin Guanghou instantly entered his divine kingdom along the beam of light spatial channel.

The cost of teleporting to the divine realm is quite high.

The Seventh Battlefield is extremely far from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. When Jin Guanghou opened a temporary teleportation channel from the Yanji Continent back to his own divine kingdom, he had to consume 12 Hunyuan units of resources. However, when he teleported from his divine kingdom to Latte's side, because the distance was relatively short, he only needed 2 Hunyuan units of resources.

Therefore, unless there is an urgent matter, most immortal powerhouses will travel slowly through the universe in a spaceship.

Even when Yang Wu became an apprentice last time, Jin Guanghou did not send a divine kingdom to him.

Because teleporting consumes too many resources!

He only gave Yang Wu 10 Hunyuan units in total. Did he really spend 14 Hunyuan units of assets just to meet him?

Even if Marquis Jin Guang is a powerful Marquis-level expert, he would never be so extravagant!

After all, even with the strength of a Marquis Jin Guang, who was at the level of a Marquis, he couldn't earn 10 units of Hunyuan assets in ten years without risking his life.

Under normal circumstances, it would only take a little over two years to travel from the battlefield outside the region back to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

But this time it's clearly different!

When Jin Guanghou learned that Yang Wu had a chance to break into the top 1,000 in the upcoming Cosmic Peerless Genius Battle, he no longer cared about the 14 Hunyuan units of resources and directly chose the fastest Divine Kingdom Teleportation!

……

Meanwhile, Latte's consciousness returned to reality, and she immediately stood up, somewhat excitedly.

Because he was about to see his father.

The last time Latte and Jin Guanghou met in reality was six thousand years ago, when Jin Guanghou visited him once in the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield before heading to the extraterrestrial battlefield.

Therefore, Latte looked quite excited at this moment.

Yang Wu, who was standing to the side, saw Latte suddenly stand up and didn't know what had happened.

Just as Yang Wu was about to ask, an extremely dazzling light suddenly appeared on Latte's body.

Then, a tall and imposing figure instantly appeared inside the D9-class spaceship that Yang Wu and the other two were riding in!

"Teleportation to a divine realm?"

In Yang Wu's memory, only teleportation and divine kingdom teleportation could instantly appear inside the spaceship.

Such power clearly indicates that it was not teleportation.

Just as Yang Wu's mind was racing, Latte suddenly stepped forward and hugged the person who had come in, calling out, "Father!"

"Father? Could it be the teacher?"

Yang Wu then realized that the person who came was none other than his newly acquainted teacher, Marquis Jin Guang!

At this moment, Jin Guanghou was wearing a dark gold armor, was about three meters tall, and had an extremely burly build. Like Latte, he had some silver scales on his forehead.

He stood in the very center of the spaceship, like an incomparably majestic sacred mountain.

At the same time, a surging, murderous aura emanated from Jin Guanghou, the result of his countless killings on the battlefield beyond the realm.

"Greetings, Marquis Jin Guang!" said the Realm Lord Gray Flame respectfully.

"Greetings, teacher!" Yang Wu quickly bowed respectfully.

"No need for formalities!" Marquis Jin Guang offered a helping hand and smiled, "Yang Wu, is this our first time meeting in real life?"
