Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 380 The Secrets of Earth

The headquarters of Virtual Universe Company, in the Nine Swords Venerable Manor.

Inside a quiet room within the manor, there sits an exquisite world ring. Inside the world ring, Yang Wu is meditating in the Time Palace.

Suddenly, Yang Wu opened his eyes.

"Finally, Luo Feng has also begun his legendary journey!" Yang Wu sighed softly.

For Yang Wu now, it is an easy thing to spare a wisp of his consciousness to connect with the virtual universe during his spare time from cultivation.

Therefore, after Luo Feng passed the thirteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge, he immediately received the news.

"Judging from the simulated experience in the time simulator, after Luo Feng revealed his talent this time, the secrets of Earth will probably be exposed!" Yang Wu pondered to himself.

As early as when Yang Wu had just broken through to the Domain Lord level and was conducting his first Domain Lord stage simulation, Earth had already been exposed in the simulation experience.

He was quite flustered at the time, and even somewhat at a loss.

After all, Yang Wu was just a primordial realm lord at the time. Even though he had shown amazing talent, it was still just talent.

Given his status at the time, he wasn't powerful enough to inspire fear in other powerful individuals. That's why, in the simulation, powerful figures like the Nightmare King consistently sought to purchase ownership of Earth.

This only refers to Yang Wu himself. As for ordinary Earthlings, they are nothing more than ants in the eyes of those powerful figures who have reached the King level. Even if they killed all the ordinary people on Earth, they probably wouldn't face any punishment.

This is why Yang Wu was threatened with the lives of Earthlings by the Nightmare Candle King during the simulation.

If this situation arises, even if Yang Wu is powerful, he will still be hesitant to act rashly.

then--

Upon learning that Earth would still be exposed, Yang Wu immediately sought out the Time Palace, a treasure that could help him grow stronger faster.

Over the years, the treasures consumed within the Time Palace alone have amounted to over ten trillion Chaos Units. Even for an invincible King-level expert, it would be extremely difficult to produce such a vast amount of wealth.

Yang Wu even warned Luo Feng and the other two not to easily reveal their talent in willpower.

Even so, it certainly can't be kept secret for long.

After all, Hong and Thor have both joined Virtual Universe Corporation and, under its tutelage, have gradually demonstrated their amazing talents.

In the original work, the Lord of Void Gold once said that Hong Yi's comprehension was very poor when he first started cultivating, but that was in comparison to his many disciples.

If placed within the core of the current Virtual Universe Company, perhaps only Bolan and Rong Jun could be compared to him.

As for Thor, at the end of this cycle of reincarnation, he was one of the thousands of universe masters of the human race. Even with Luo Feng's great help, how bad could his talent be?

With Yang Wu and his group emerging as prominent figures, the unique nature of Earth has become an inevitable outcome!

Luo Feng's outburst has only brought this event forward.

However, as time passed, Yang Wu's strength grew stronger. Meanwhile, in the simulation, the human race's higher-ups adopted increasingly lenient methods for handling Earth's problems.

Moreover, there are still thousands of years before the Earth is exposed in the simulator, so Yang Wu has plenty of time to prepare and there is no need to stop Luo Feng from showing his talent.

After all, for Luo Feng at this point, it is still extremely important to show his talent and receive strong support from the human race.

In particular, the help and guidance from the Chaos City Lord, a fifth-order universe master, was of paramount importance!

"Even if Earth's unique characteristics are exposed now, with my current talent and strength, if I resolutely stop them, I doubt anyone will forcibly buy ownership of Earth!"

"After all, Earth's unique characteristics haven't been verified yet, so those high and mighty cosmic rulers naturally won't care too much!"

"Just let things take their natural course!"

At this moment, Yang Wu's state of mind became extremely calm.

……

Chaos City, within a world within the City Lord's Mansion.

On the endless, desolate land, countless corpses of powerful alien races lay scattered.

Just then, the Lord of Chaos City, who was sitting high on the huge throne, suddenly opened his eyes.

hum...

As soon as the Lord of Chaos moved his mind, a huge screen immediately appeared in the void in front of him.

"Luo Feng, a member of the Primordial Secret Realm Domain Lord level, has already passed the thirteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven after only a few hundred years of cultivation."

If it were merely the appearance of an ordinary genius, it wouldn't have alarmed the Lord of Chaos City. However, Luo Feng's performance had almost reached the level of a top human genius, so the news naturally reached the Lord of Chaos City.

"Luo Feng?" the Chaos City Lord muttered to himself, "That little fellow who possessed the Golden Horned Beast back then?"

Wow!

The Lord of Chaos City's gaze was deep and penetrating through infinite space, directly seeing the figure of Luo Feng, who was sitting cross-legged on the rooftop cultivating.

As the ruler of the universe, the Lord of Chaos City can easily control a region of spacetime. In this primordial universe, he can easily explore anything he wants to investigate.

Therefore, the Lord of Chaos City immediately discovered the golden-horned behemoth clone within Luo Feng's original core, which had already broken through to the level of a World Lord.

"So he has already reached the Realm Lord level..." The Chaos City Lord suddenly understood.

The Realm Lord level can be considered the most important stage in the cultivation process of a powerful individual.

Because the power of the world allows the consciousness of a world lord-level expert to descend to the origin of the universe, the speed at which they comprehend the laws will naturally increase significantly.

Generally speaking, after a Domain Lord breaks through to the World Lord level, the speed at which they comprehend the fundamental laws usually increases by hundreds of times.

A smile appeared on the Chaos City Lord's face: "However, even if this little guy's Golden Horned Beast avatar has broken through to the World Lord level, it's still quite impressive that he can pass the thirteenth level of the Heavenly Bridge so quickly!"

"It seems that another powerful Immortal King is about to emerge from my Virtual Universe Company lineage!"

Although Luo Feng is now considered a World Lord, he is still mixed among the Domain Lord level members, but the Chaos City Lord does not feel that there is anything wrong with it.

The universe is full of endless wonders, and all he needs to know is that Luo Feng is human and has not been possessed by an alien race, and that is enough!

As for the fact that the senior management of Virtual Universe Company did not notice this, it was just a trivial matter.

Thinking of this, the Lord of Chaos City was intrigued and waved his hand. The video of Luo Feng breaking through the Tongtian Bridge appeared on the screen in mid-air.

"Um?"

The Chaos City Lord, who was watching the video, had a slight thought: "This little guy has actually grasped a trace of the Beast God's intent? It seems he has quite a talent for the Path of the Beast God, although he's still a bit inferior to Yang Wu, he's worth nurturing!"

Although the path of the Beast God is quite difficult in the early stages, it becomes much easier when breaking through to the level of the Universe Venerable.

After all, those who follow the path of the Beast God can use the Beast God Inheritance Token to go to the Ancestral God Sect to receive the Beast God Inheritance, so it is naturally easier for them to break through than for others.

Thinking of this, the Chaos City Lord immediately retrieved all of Luo Feng's information.

"Earth?" The Lord of Chaos City was slightly taken aback.

……

A moment later, in the virtual universe, at the highest point of Thunder Island, in a palace shrouded in endless chaotic energy.

A faint figure appeared out of thin air and respectfully said, "Lord of Chaos City, I have investigated all information about Earth."

"That Earth was originally an ordinary life-bearing planet in the Heilongshan Starfield of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. Tens of thousands of years ago, an immortal god perished there. However, according to my understanding, in addition to the Divine Might King Yang Wu and Luo Feng, a Primordial Secret Realm Domain Lord-level member, there is also Hong, a Primordial Secret Realm Universe-level member, and Lei Shen, a Primordial Secret Realm Universe-level member, who also came from that Earth."

This person is the head of the intelligence department of the Virtual Universe Company, a Shadow Monarch with the power of a cosmic overlord. Because of the existence of the Virtual Universe, he is already considered one of the most well-informed and powerful beings in the original universe!

Upon receiving the email from the Lord of Chaos, the Shadow Monarch immediately launched an investigation into Earth.

The more he investigated, the more surprised he became!

It's truly incredible that four unparalleled geniuses emerged from a tiny life-bearing planet in the same era.

Even the most central planets within the universe, such as Augustus and Manka, have at most undergone later modifications, thus containing more primordial cosmic energy.

Even over endless ages, it would be rare to see even one peerless genius. The occurrence of four geniuses in the same era is absolutely impossible!

If two unparalleled geniuses appear at the same time, it could be a coincidence.

But now, four of them have appeared at the same time, including an unbelievable prodigy like the Divine Might King Yang Wu. It's simply unbelievable.

"Hong, Lei Shen?" A towering figure emerged from the chaotic energy; it was the Lord of Chaos City. Even he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "There are actually two more?"

"How could an ordinary planet possibly produce four unparalleled geniuses in the same era?"

"Yes, Lord City Lord!" the Shadow Monarch replied respectfully, "There is a strong possibility that an incredibly astonishing secret is hidden on Earth!"

The Lord of Chaos City pondered for a moment before instructing, "I am aware of this matter, and I will personally investigate it. Shadow, remember not to mention this to anyone!"

"Understood!" the Shadow Monarch replied respectfully.

"Alright, you can go now!" The Chaos City Lord waved his hand in acknowledgment.

"Your subordinate takes his leave!" As soon as he finished speaking, the Shadow Monarch's figure disappeared from the hall.

……

Chaos City, within the city lord's mansion.

"Yang Wu, Luo Feng, Hong... Thor..." the Chaos City Lord murmured, "What kind of secret does Earth hold that allows it to simultaneously nurture so many geniuses?"

For any intelligent life form, hiding secrets is an instinct.

For the Lord of Chaos City, who has already reached the pinnacle of the universe, no matter how miraculous the encounter, he would not care too much, as long as he ultimately intends to benefit the human race.

But the secrets that the Earth holds now might have a huge impact on the entire human race, so of course he can no longer turn a blind eye!

"Let me see for myself what secrets the Earth holds!"

……

Deep within the human realm, in the heart of a primeval and mysterious place.

A vast, flowing river of starlight surged forth, upon which floated all sorts of strange artifacts, each radiating an astonishing pressure.

"Boom!!"

As space trembled, the vast river of stars vanished into thin air, transforming into a garment that draped over a towering figure tens of thousands of kilometers high.

This imposing figure was none other than the Lord of Chaos City, and the vast river was the Thousand Treasures River, a top-tier domain treasure in the Lord of Chaos City's possession, renowned for its prestige.

At this moment, the Lord of Chaos City, dressed in the robes formed by the Thousand Treasures River, stood barefoot in the void, holding a broken stone staff, gazing into the distance.

At the same time, he said, "Junior brother, I need to leave the Primal Secret Realm for a while. I will be back soon. Please stop studying your unique skill for now and help me guard the Primal Secret Realm for a while."

"Yes, Senior Brother." A voice came from the void and entered the mind of the Chaos City Lord.

The Lord of Chaos City nodded and immediately disappeared into the void.

"Where's Qianbaohe?"

"Qianbao River has disappeared!"

"The teacher must have gone out."

The many powerful figures within the area covered by the Thousand Treasures River were quite surprised to find that the mighty river had disappeared.

Some of the cosmic venerables and their many servants in the palaces within the Qianbao River region discovered that the vast Qianbao River had disappeared.

Immediately, a chilling aura spread out.

Immediately afterwards, a silver-haired man carrying a sword appeared out of thin air. His temples were gray, and he wore ancient armor stained with blood.

The silver-haired man gazed into the void, inwardly wondering, "What on earth happened that would make my senior brother rush off like this?"

……

Not long after the Lord of Chaos left the Primal Secret Realm, he appeared directly in the Solar System.

The various precious detection instruments scattered throughout the solar system, and even the immortal plant life forms that Yang Wu cultivated to protect the Earth, did not detect the presence of the Chaos City Lord at all.

Wow!

The towering Chaos City Lord, spanning tens of thousands of kilometers, descended from the void. Gazing at the blue planet nearly the same size as himself, he muttered to himself, "This is Earth? Yang Wu and Luo Feng's home planet?"

At this moment, Yang Wu's talent and comprehension were among the best in the entire history of humankind.

Moreover, once Yang Wu breaks free from the shackles of the Star Pearl and advances to the level of a Universe Venerable, the human race will once again produce a fearless and powerful super strongman.

Now that this talent has arrived, it may even be related to the blue planet in front of him. How could he not take it seriously?

"Yang Wu's emergence was not only due to his own comprehension and talent, but also because of his extraordinary circumstances!"

"That Luo Feng also possessed the Golden Horned Beast, so it will be difficult to replicate him!" the Chaos City Lord thought to himself.

"But neither Hong nor Thor had any particularly extraordinary encounters. Even if Earth were to produce just one Thor over tens of thousands of epochs, it would be incredibly important to the human race!"

The Lord of Chaos City secretly hoped that Earth possessed unique characteristics, so that, with proper nurturing, the human race would produce even more geniuses in the future!

With this in mind, the Lord of Chaos City immediately began to take control of a space-time area and seriously investigate everything about Earth.

Stop saying I'm suppressing the main character!

Today I saw several readers who have followed me all along talking about the protagonist's slow progress.

But what I'm doing is already quite reasonable.

The protagonist's current comprehension is equivalent to that of the Seven Sword Kings. Just imagine how long it would take the Seven Sword Kings to create the ultimate secret technique!

The Seven Swords King was just an ordinary inheritor of the Beast God.

Throughout the endless ages of the universe, among hundreds of millions of immortal inheritors, only a handful have created the ultimate secret technique.

The immortal deities on Purple Thorn Island are among the most elite in the universe.

And most importantly, there's time! (How long did it actually take those immortals who created the ultimate secret techniques?)

Finally, the protagonist's true human form, although somewhat weaker in combat, is also one of the topics I really want to write about, so I won't spoil it for you here.
