Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 217 Arrives in Succession

From Earth to Rhine Planet, and from Rhine Planet back to the current Chaos City, and now about to leave Chaos City for the Primal Secret Realm...

Parents and family, teammates from the martial arts team, Hong and Lei Shen, Teacher Jin Guanghou, senior brother Latte...

In Yang Wu's short span of decades, he has parted ways with too many people!

But Chi Yan will always stay by his side, never leave, and will never betray him!

Therefore, if Chi Yan could evolve into an intelligent life form, it would definitely make Yang Wu very happy.

Just like Babata and Moyunteng to Luofeng.

Even though Luo Feng was able to cultivate the strongest Moyun Vine at a lower cost, he still chose to spend a greater price to evolve the Moyun Vine that had been with him for many years.

Even though Babata could no longer help Luo Feng in the later stages, Luo Feng still spent an astonishing amount of money to purchase the Heart of Evolution and enabled Babata to cultivate to the peak of the King-Sealing realm.

After so many years of getting along, Chi Yan was no longer a tool to Yang Wu, but a friend.

Now that this friend is gradually developing life-like characteristics, he is naturally happy.

Of course, while he was happy, Yang Wu didn't forget that he still had important things to do.

"Crimson Flame, connect to the virtual universe!" Yang Wu ordered directly.

……

In a remote area of ​​Chaos City, there is a vast yet simple mansion.

The Nine Swords Venerable, dressed in a blue battle robe, appeared in front of the mansion and was quickly invited into the hall by the mansion's owner, Kandri.

The Nine Swords Venerable came to Chaos City for two reasons: first, to take away the geniuses of Yang Wu's generation from Chaos City; and second, to invite the three-eyed old man before him to explore the secret realm.

Kandri is an extremely ancient being among the human race, possessing extraordinary strength, and is revered by many super-powerful beings as the "Guardian of Chaos City".

His most famous move was the "Clone Technique". Although the clones created by this "Clone Technique" were not particularly strong, they still possessed 60% of Kander's own power, and could even rival a high-level Venerable without the protection of powerful treasures.

More importantly, the cost of creating such a clone is not high, and even if the clone is destroyed, the impact on Kandri is minimal.

This is also one of the most important reasons why the Nine Swords Venerable invited Kandri.

At this moment, these two extraordinary beings had finalized their plans to explore the secret realm and were chatting casually with each other.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on the face of the Nine Swords Venerable.

"What's wrong?" The three-eyed old man raised an eyebrow.

"It's nothing!"

The Nine Swords Venerable waved his hand, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He said calmly, "It's just my newly accepted disciple, Yang Wu, who is planning to challenge the eighth level of the Nine Universe Heavenly Bridge!"

"Oh?" Kanderi asked with a slight surprise, smiling, "If I remember correctly, your disciple is on the path of analyzing the essence of the laws, right? Does that mean he's already confident he can pass the eighth level of the Bridge to Heaven?"

While the path of analyzing the essence of the laws offers a significant advantage in later comprehension, it is incredibly difficult in the early stages and much slower than the ordinary path of comprehension.

"There shouldn't be any problem!" Nine Swords Venerable nodded slowly.

The Nine Swords Venerable was quite satisfied with Yang Wu, his newly accepted disciple. In the past thirty years, Yang Wu had only visited him once, twenty years ago, before directly passing through the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge.

Therefore, the Nine Swords Venerable believed that since Yang Wu had previously said he was confident in passing the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge, then he must really be confident.

"This year's Genius Battle is among the best of the hundreds of thousands of Genius Battles recently held by our Virtual Universe Company!"

Kander exclaimed, "Those two youngsters, Rong Jun and Luo Feng, are quite good. And Bolan's strength has also improved greatly after changing his cultivation path! These three youngsters are all very outstanding; they might become your right-hand men in the future!"

"If Yang Wu can really pass the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge before leaving Chaos City, then Nine Swords, you'll have struck gold! With such talent, if properly nurtured, he has a very good chance of being on par with us!"

On average, only one genius might emerge from every thirty Genius Battles who has passed the fifth level of the Bridge to Heaven before leaving Chaos City. As for the sixth level, it would probably take thousands of battles to produce one.

As for the seventh and eighth levels, those are things that only appear once every tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of epochs.

Upon hearing this, the Nine Swords Venerable smiled. Being able to take Yang Wu as his disciple was indeed a very happy thing.

Kandri chuckled and said, "Since we have nothing else to do, let's see if your disciple can actually get past the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge!"

Then, with a wave of his hand, a screen appeared in mid-air, displaying the scene inside the Skybridge dimension.

"It can definitely be done!" Nine Swords Venerable looked at the screen with great confidence.

……

Virtual universe, the Bridge to Heaven dimension.

Yang Wu's figure suddenly appeared on the central island. He glanced around and saw that there were many more people around than usual.

Most of these people were newcomers who came to Chaos City in the same batch as Yang Wu. After listening to the words of the Nine Swords Venerable, they all came to cross the Heavenly Bridge, wanting to comprehend the Chaos Stele one more time before leaving.

"It's Yang Wu."

"Yang Wu actually came to challenge the Heavenly Bridge? Could he possibly make it past the eighth level?"

"That's impossible; the difference wouldn't be that big!"

"Yes, I heard from the old folks that the bridge to heaven gets increasingly difficult, and even after thousands of years, it might not be possible to pass through even one level!"

The strongest among these geniuses had only passed the second level of the Heavenly Bridge, yet they all seemed somewhat excited upon seeing Yang Wu appear.

Even some who had already crossed the Tongtian Bridge and were planning to leave stayed behind, wanting to know whether Yang Wu could actually get past the eighth level.

Yang Wu glanced at several familiar geniuses, nodded slightly, and then walked directly toward the guardian, Baffin.

"Lord Guardian," Yang Wu greeted him with a hint of respect.

"Yang Wu, it's been years since I've seen you!" Upon seeing Yang Wu, the guardian, Baffin, dressed in a black star-patterned robe, smiled and said, "The Nine Heavens Bridge is empty now, you can go directly to challenge it. I hope you can pass the eighth level!"

"Okay!" Yang Wu smiled and nodded, then transformed into a streak of light and flew directly towards the Nine Heavens Bridge not far away.

The other geniuses who witnessed this scene exchanged glances and then spread the news of Yang Wu's breakthrough on the Tongtian Bridge.

Meanwhile, the watchman, Baffin, also began sending mass emails.

In a very short moment.

Swish! Swish! Swish...

On the central island of this incredibly beautiful bridge to heaven, figures appeared one after another.

Luo Feng, Bo Lan, Rong Jun, Long Yun, Wu Ka, Jiang Mo and other top geniuses who had nothing important to do were all here at this time.

Most of these people were looking forward to Yang Wu's success, but Jiang Mo kept a cold face.

In fact, Jiang Mo and Yang Wu had a fairly good relationship. When Yang Wu became a disciple of the Nine Swords Venerable, Jiang Mo even sent him a congratulatory email.

But any brother would probably not be happy to see his sister with another man for nearly thirty years!

"You little guys, didn't you already cross the Sky Bridge just now? Do you want to cross it again?" Guardian Baffin looked at the group and asked with a smile.

"Guardian!" Uka, the most cheerful member of the group, said with a smile, "We heard that Yang Wu is going to attempt the eighth level of the Sky Bridge, so we want to see if he can make it! Guardian, may we watch Yang Wu's battle live?"

The other geniuses were also intrigued. If they could watch Yang Wu's battle live, they would know just how big the gap was.

The guard, Baffin, hesitated before saying, "I don't have the authority to do this without Yang Wu's permission!"

After hearing the guardian's words, many geniuses were somewhat disappointed.

Just then, three other figures appeared at the same time. They were Longyu King, Tongnan King, and Zhenyan King, who had rushed over after receiving news of Yang Wu's attempt to cross the Tongtian Bridge.

King Longyu happened to overhear everyone's conversation, and immediately ordered, "Baffin, let them see it!"

As the first Immortal King under the Nine Swords Venerable, Longyu King holds a very high position in the Virtual Universe Company and naturally has the right to play videos in front of everyone.

Moreover, these geniuses will all be under the Nine Swords Venerable's command in the future, so Longyu King naturally wants to think about the Nine Swords Venerable's future and let these people know the gap so that they will work harder to cultivate.

"Yes!" Upon hearing the order from King Longyu, the overseer Baffin waved his hand, and a huge screen immediately appeared in front of everyone.

A video immediately appeared on the screen, showing Yang Wu, dressed in dark gold armor, transforming into a streak of light and flying towards the eighth level of the Tongtian Bridge.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

One after another, powerful immortals who never usually appear here appeared, making this Tongtian Bridge plane suddenly lively.

After reaching the realm of immortality, these great beings require an incredibly long time to advance each step, so they naturally don't come to this Tongtian Bridge plane under normal circumstances.

"Hahaha!" The burly ape-man, King Zhenyan, clad in golden armor, laughed and said, "Today is truly extraordinary! To gather so many King-level Immortals is even more than before Yang Wu became his disciple!"

An immortal king of the winged race with wings on his back laughed and said, "True King Yan, Yang Wu has shown remarkable talent since arriving in Chaos City. Today, he's come to challenge the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge, so naturally we all have to come and see for ourselves!"

"Indeed! Our Virtual Universe Company hasn't seen such a genius in a long time. Let's see what that Giant Axe Arena has to say after Yang Wu clears the eighth level of the Bridge to Heaven!"

"True King Yan, isn't Yang Wu the unparalleled genius of your Nine Universes lineage? Do you think he can pass the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge?"

"Haha!" King Zhenyan laughed and said, "This Yang Wu does occasionally come to listen to our lectures, but he is not my disciple, and I don't know his exact strength!"

A group of immortal gods, who rarely gathered together, stood together and started chatting and laughing.

Such an opportunity is very rare for them.

Before long, the number of immortal gods who came to this Tongtian Bridge plane to watch Yang Wu's breakthrough had unknowingly reached more than a hundred, making it even more lively than when Yang Wu first broke through the Tongtian Bridge.

Among these people are representatives from Virtual Universe Company, Giant Axe Arena, and the other three major powers.

Yang Wu has already been accepted as a disciple by the Nine Swords Venerable. They came here not to take on disciples, but because they were all curious about whether Yang Wu could pass through the eighth level of the Tongtian Bridge.

After all, as early as thirty years ago, many of these people believed that Yang Wu had a great chance of passing through the eighth level of the Tongtian Bridge.

Now, thirty years have passed, and it's time to verify everyone's suspicions.

Meanwhile, a group of geniuses nearby dared not even breathe when they saw these great beings appear one after another.

Although these geniuses are all of extraordinary status, some even being disciples of immortal kings, this kind of spectacle is truly something I've never seen before.

Just then, Yang Wu on the screen finally reached the end of the eighth level of the Nine Heavens Bridge.

Thank you to reader Juli for the 400 coins reward, previously mentioned in chapter 164.
