I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

The three of them looked angrily at the center of the pit, only to be stunned when they saw Luo Yuan dressed in ordinary armor.

A tall and imposing minotaur walked over, looked at Luo Yuan, opened his bull-like mouth and laughed, "So that's why I'm having such good luck today, getting one royal flush after another. It turns out we have a distinguished guest. Your Highness Luo Yuan, it's been a long time! As the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord, shouldn't you be enjoying good food and drink in Chaos City? Why did you suddenly come to challenge this Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a Realm Lord-level mountain? It's the most difficult place to cross!"

"You stupid ox, how dare you speak to His Highness Luo Yuan like that? His Highness Luo Yuan is a peerless genius who has mastered teleportation at the cosmic level. Is there anything he can't do?" The ape-man walked over and said to Luo Yuan in a somewhat obsequious manner.

"Your Highness Luo Yuan, please show me some mercy this time." The snake woman winked at Luo Yuan, but the snake's tongue sticking out from the corner of her mouth was chilling.

Luo Yuan chuckled upon hearing their words and said, "You three are actually being so obedient. Last time I killed you at the Universe level, I wonder if you at the World Lord level are enough for me to handle this time."

The minotaur, ape-man, and snake-woman were a little scared when they heard this, because the aura emanating from Luo Yuan was too frightening.

"Alright, enough talk, I'm coming!"

After Luo Yuan finished speaking, he charged directly at the three of them without using any equipment, intending to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Upon seeing this, the extremely burly minotaur revealed joy in his eyes. He was very confident in his physical strength and directly stretched out his two large hands to grab Luo Yuan. Luo Yuan dodged and then punched the minotaur's side.

"Boom! Bang!"

The giant minotaur had half its body blasted apart, and the remaining half was blasted into the cliff face of the Primal Tongtian Mountain like a meteor, dead beyond any doubt. Luo Yuan, however, remained completely still. He frowned, feeling that the minotaur was incredibly weak.

The ape-man and the snake-woman, who hadn't yet made a move, watched in stunned silence. Their bodies trembled with fear. Although they wouldn't actually die, the pain was real. However, due to the rules of Tongtian Mountain, they still gritted their teeth and attacked Luo Yuan. In the end, the snake-woman's head was blown off by Luo Yuan's mental shock, and the ape-man was directly torn in half by Luo Yuan's "Tearing Heaven and Earth" claw technique, looking exceptionally ferocious.

And just like that, the hurdle at the foot of the mountain was overcome without any effort.

……

The three people on the mountainside were instantly killed by Luo Yuan's "World-Destroying Divine Light".

……

The three on the mountaintop were the strongest, each comparable to the peak combat power of an immortal king. Luo Yuan used the "Seven Transformations of Divine Evolution" to transform into a humanoid ferocious beast and tore the three into pieces.

After a while, a beam of light flashed, and the three guards on the mountaintop were resurrected. They all respectfully congratulated Luo Yuan.

"Your Highness Luo Yuan, congratulations on successfully passing through the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a Realm Lord level mountain. Those who can pass through this mountain are all geniuses who appear only once in tens of millions of eras, and you actually completed it in less than ten minutes. You can be called the record holder for the fastest completion of the challenge. Countless people will come to challenge your record and follow in your footsteps," the minotaur congratulated.

Luo Yuan chuckled at the minotaur's flattery. This burly man was surprisingly articulate. After the three of them finished their congratulations, Luo Yuan logged off; he still had to conquer the Heavenly Bridge.

What Luo Yuan didn't know was that he had just passed through the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a realm master level, and the news had already reached the human elite. The first to know were naturally the controllers of the Virtual Universe Company.

Upon receiving the news, the Chaos City Lord, who was sitting cross-legged in the Chaos Ruins, couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that I underestimated Luo Yuan's potential. He is even stronger than Ke Di, whom I recruited back then. He just broke through the peak of the World Lord level and then passed through the World Lord level Primordial Tongtian Mountain. His combat power is at least at the limit of the King level. If he reaches the Immortal level, wouldn't he be directly comparable to a veteran Venerable? I really look forward to it!"

When the other universe lords learned that Luo Yuan had broken through the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a realm lord-level being, they were all stunned.

The founder of the Giant Axe—the Lord of the Giant Axe—sighed, “Chaos is so fortunate. It lost its disciple, Kodi, a genius of tens of millions of epochs, but now it has gained Luo Yuan, a genius of hundreds of millions of epochs. I am envious!”

……

In the plane of the Skybridge, on a massive island that has stood for countless years, Baffin, as the guardian, has served here for billions of years. He longs more than anyone else for more and more outstanding talents to emerge among humankind.

Luo Yuan's figure suddenly appeared in the island's wide square. Baffin smiled when he saw Luo Yuan and said, "Your Highness Luo Yuan, it's been a long time. Ever since you passed the 13th level of the Bridge to Heaven, the other geniuses have been training even harder, but no one has been able to break your record. This time, Your Highness, which level do you plan to reach?"

"Haha, really? The geniuses in my cohort have had a tough time too. It's a pity they can't possibly surpass me. This time, I plan to go all out and at least reach the 18th floor. That way, I can get permanent residency in Chaos City." Luo Yuan smiled and said seriously.

Baffin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and smiled, "Your Highness is truly confident. If you can pass the 18th level of the Bridge to Heaven, you will be considered immortal and invincible! Since Your Highness is so confident, I will wait here for your good news."

Luo Yuan nodded, then transformed into a stream of light and entered the Tongtian Bridge.

Baffin watched Luo Yuan's retreating figure, shook his head with a smile. He felt that Luo Yuan was just young and impetuous, a bit unaware of his own limitations. In countless eras, there were very few peerless geniuses who could pass through the 18th level of the Tongtian Bridge right after breaking through to the World Lord level. But suddenly he received an email, and when he opened it, he found that it was information that Luo Yuan had just passed through the World Lord level Primal Tongtian Mountain. His calm mind, which had been dormant for billions of years, was also broken.

"This Prince Luo Yuan might really be the one to usher in a new era!" Baffin murmured, looking in the direction Luo Yuan had flown off to, his eyes filled with endless anticipation.

In a private room of a restaurant in the public area of ​​Yuxiang Mountain, in the virtual universe.

Luo Feng, Bo Lan, Rong Jun, Wu Ka, Qian Shui, and the others all received a message. When they opened it, their eyes widened in disbelief, and it took them a long time to come to their senses.

"It's over, it's over. It seems we'll never catch up with Luo Yuan in our lifetime. He's not even in the same dimension as us. Tsk tsk tsk, breaking through to the peak of the World Lord level at the Universe level, and then directly passing through the World Lord level Primordial Tongtian Mountain. He's much stronger than that Kodi back then. We were born in the same era as him. We're really pathetic, completely just a foil for him." Uka sighed after taking a sip of his drink.

The others remained silent, but the proud Berlan stood up with red eyes and went offline to cultivate.

Chapter 154 Luo Yuan VS Space Venerable

Virtual universe, the Bridge to Heaven dimension.

Luo Yuan was flying low over the surface of a long, dark bridge that stretched straight to the sky. He had just passed the 20th level of the Bridge to Heaven and was now heading towards the 21st level. With his invincible strength below the level of a Universe Venerable, passing the first 20 levels was quite easy, especially since illusionists had the least impact on him.

The difficulty of the 21st floor is comparable to fighting against a beginner-level cosmic master. The guardians inside fight by directly using the power of the complete laws of space or time, which is extremely terrifying.

"I want to test my full strength now, to see if I can fight against a Venerable!" Luo Yuan's eyes revealed an astonishing fighting spirit.

Luo Yuan arrived at the end of the 21st floor and found that the background here was a huge black hole, which seemed to be swallowing everything around it, and it looked very mysterious.

"Challenger, you may choose any one of the three types of opponents: Mind Controller, Mind Illusionist, or Martial Artist. Defeat them to pass the 21st level and become a Universe Venerable." A deep voice came from the black hole in the background.

"The Controller!" Luo Yuan replied. He felt that the Controller was probably the strongest. He was just here to have fun and didn't expect to win. After all, it was too difficult for a Realm Lord to kill a Venerable with his own strength.

"Om~"

Suddenly, a gray cloud appeared and instantly condensed into a human form. It was a slender figure completely covered in gray armor. This figure bowed slightly to Luo Yuan and said very politely, "Your Highness Luo Yuan, hello. I am the guardian of your 21st level."

"Your Highness should know that only by cultivating one of the fundamental laws of time or space to perfection can one become a Universal Venerable. I, however, have mastered the complete laws of space and have fully integrated the three profound mysteries of spatial teleportation, strangulation, and sealing. Therefore, I will now show Your Highness the power of a Space Venerable!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuan raised an eyebrow. Among his ten fundamental laws, space was the one he mastered the most. He could also use the three profound mysteries of space teleportation, strangulation, and sealing on a small scale, but he was not yet able to teleport thousands of light-years at once like the Space Venerable and seal off a world. He was also quite looking forward to seeing the true power of the Space Venerable.

"By the way, your voice sounds like a woman's. All the people I encountered when I challenged the 20th floor were men," Luo Yuan suddenly said with a wicked grin.

The slender gray figure paused for a moment, then explained, "We are all virtual creations, without gender distinctions. Alright, Your Highness Luo Yuan, the challenge is about to begin!"

"Come on, I'm already lying down!" Luo Yuan laughed.

The gray figure grabbed out a gray greatsword, which was made up of countless fragments and looked as if it might fall apart at any moment.

Luo Yuan took out the Beast God Weapon, and under his mental control, countless fragments flew out and floated in front of him. They looked densely packed, with law runes flashing on each fragment. Then, these fragments immediately formed a beast god form that was several hundred meters long and rushed madly towards the gray figure.

The gray figure calmly extended a hand and softly uttered, "Seal!"

Instantly, an invisible wave spread out in all directions, as if this space had frozen. The beast god formed by Luo Yuan's beast god weapon also seemed to be frozen in mid-air, motionless. However, he could feel that it was bound by the rules and deprived of the space's movement rights.

Seeing this, Luo Yuan also activated the spatial blockade he controlled. Although the range was limited, he was still able to move. Then, the gray figure was shocked to see that the "Beast God" who had just been frozen by space suddenly started moving again. Although her movements were not as swift as before, she was still able to get close to her.

"What? You've also mastered spatial sealing? How is that possible?" the gray figure asked, stunned.

"Don't be surprised. If we were fighting in space, I would definitely be inferior to you, but in this small space, I can still use the laws of space to obtain some authority," Luo Yuan explained calmly.

The gray figure remained silent upon hearing this. She activated her psychic weapon, clashing it with Luo Yuan's Beast God Weapon. Suddenly, the gray figure used spatial teleportation to attack Luo Yuan. Upon seeing this, Luo Yuan also quickly used spatial teleportation to escape. Thus, the two engaged in a chase on the 21st floor of the Heavenly Bridge, much to the amusement of Baffin, the guardian watching the large screen outside, who twitched at the corner of his mouth.

"This, this, this... A Space Venerable is actually chasing a Realm Lord everywhere and still can't catch up? Am I seeing things? This Prince Luo Yuan has actually mastered the three mysteries of space. Although he hasn't fully integrated them yet, this is still too amazing!" Guardian Baffin murmured.

On the 21st floor of the Sky Bridge, a gray figure had been chasing Luo Yuan for a long time, and even the usually polite Luo Yuan was getting a little annoyed.

"Space Freeze! Space Strangulation!"

The gray figure suddenly launched both 'Kill' and 'Seal' at Luo Yuan simultaneously, and then she activated 'Instant'—a spatial teleportation.

"You have no martial ethics! A dignified Space Venerable actually used the three great spatial mysteries on a mere Realm Lord like me at the same time!"

"Boom!"

…………

Virtual space, Yuxiangshan Primitive Area, No. 112 Ancient Style Manor.

Sitting in his study, Luo Yuan pursed his lips. He had failed in his attempt to conquer the 21st level of the Sky Bridge, but he had still managed to force the Space Venerable to use his full strength, which was quite remarkable. This had greatly benefited him, making him more adept at using the three profound mysteries of space. He hadn't failed because of his comprehension of the laws, but because of his realm. After all, even at the same realm, the power of a World Lord and a Universe Venerable in manipulating the laws was completely different. Luo Yuan used the power of the world, while the Space Venerable used divine power.

"Drip drop~"

"Master, you have received several thousand emails. With your current permissions, you can view them directly!" the smart minibus suddenly reminded you.

"Xiao Ba, sort the emails by type!" Luo Yuan said.

"Ok!"

after awhile.

"Master, it's all sorted out. There are a total of 3,658 emails. Among them, 3,552 are letters of friendship from various peak-level Kings, 100 are congratulatory letters from various Universe Venerables, 5 are letters of condolence from the five Universe Lords, and one is an email from the Chaos City Lord, which can only be viewed by you personally."

"Open Chaos Teacher's email for me!"

"Yes!"

"Luo Yuan, you did very well. As a World Lord, you were able to pass through the 20th level of the World Lord-level Primal Tongtian Mountain and Tongtian Bridge, and even made the Space Venerable use his full strength on the 21st level. Your performance far exceeded my expectations and left those Universe Lords speechless."

I have nominated you to the Hongmeng Organization, which is the highest authority of the human race. Only those who have been granted the title of King or Immortal are qualified to join. It can be said to be the highest combat power organization of our human race. The Hongmeng Space is located in the highest plane space of the entire virtual universe. I will have your second senior brother take you to see it when you have the chance. I hope you will continue to work hard and grow into the pinnacle combat power and guardian of the human race!

Chapter 155 A King-Conferred Servant, 1000 Million Times the Peak Power of a Realm Lord

After reading the Chaos City Lord's email, Luo Yuan smiled. The Hong Alliance? He could finally make contact with this organization of humanity's highest combat power, which was also humanity's highest authority. Those universe secret realms with extremely high value were basically controlled by the Hong Alliance.

After passing through the 20th level of the Primal Tongtian Mountain and Tongtian Bridge at the Realm Lord level, Luo Yuan's reputation as a genius of billions of eras was unshakeable. He became the object and idol that countless geniuses desperately pursued. Luo Yuan also obtained permanent residency in Chaos City as he wished.

He directly selected a piece of land near the city lord's mansion, which was specially approved through the Chaos City Lord's connections. Then he had a traditional Chinese manor built, complete with pavilions, towers, flying beams and painted rafters, artificial mountains and strange rocks, and small bridges and flowing water. It was magnificent and beautiful, which pleased Venerable Guiyi, who came to offer his congratulations.

"Junior brother, your architectural style has a mysterious feel to it. It makes me feel relaxed and ethereal!" Venerable Guiyi said with a smile.

"Second Brother, please sit down and try my tea!"

Luo Yuan and Venerable Guiyi sat facing each other in an elegant tea room, and Luo Yuan poured Guiyi a cup of green tea.

"Second Senior Brother, is there some good news?" Luo Yuan asked with a smile.

"Haha, you really don't do things without a reason. I've brought the ten novice-level King-level Immortals you wanted, but I need you to transfer them into your world. After all, these people can't openly appear in Chaos City." Guiyi said, taking a sip of green tea.

"Yes, thank you!"

With a touch of their right hands, Luo Yuan and Venerable Guiyi completed the transfer of these ten novice-level King-level Immortals. Luo Yuan directly imprisoned them in his inner world—five men and five women. Was Venerable Guiyi running a promotion, even playing a pairing game?

"By the way, you have already passed the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, which is at the Realm Lord level, and have 100 billion points. You should make good use of them. You should start cultivating your 'External Avatar' technique. If you don't understand something, you can ask your teacher for guidance. Your teacher's avatar technique is extremely well-practiced and should be of some use to you," said Venerable Guiyi.

"Yes, I will." Luo Yuan nodded.

After Venerable Guiyi finished speaking, he suddenly clapped his hands, and a figure appeared instantly. The newcomer was a woman who was both heroic and charming, with delicate features, long hair draped over her shoulders, and a particularly captivating beauty mark at the corner of her eye. She was wearing a light blue battle armor, with a curvaceous figure, and was looking at Luo Yuan with a smile on her lips.

"Luo Yuan, this is my prized disciple, Pei Lan, who is also a beginner-level Space Venerable. She will be responsible for protecting you from now on. You two should get to know each other." Venerable Guiyi raised an eyebrow and smiled at Luo Yuan.
