“I choose the Nine Universe Chaos Stele!”
On the other side, Luo Feng hesitated for a while and also chose his own path.
The Nine Sword Master nodded, as he had expected.
The Nine Universe Chaos Stele is a chaotic stele of the spatial path. With Luo Feng’s potential, if he survives in the future, he will at least become an immortal marquis.
After choosing the Chaos Stele, the Nine Sword Master led the two of them to continue deeper into the training ground, arriving at a training ground that was tens of kilometers long and wide. On the far left of this training ground, there was an entrance that was thirty meters high.
After entering this entrance, there was a huge corridor that was about 60 meters wide and 120 meters high. On both sides of this corridor, there were huge bronze doors, each with ancient characters inscribed on them, such as “Dragon Walk” and “Giant Axe,” a total of 52 doors.
And in front of those doors, there was an old man with a kind face.
In front of each bronze door, there was an identical old man with a vertical eye in the center of his eyebrows, with a kind and amiable expression.
“Candley, are there people at the Universe Chaos Stele and the Nine Universe Chaos Stele now?”
The Nine Sword Master approached the three-eyed old man, Candley, and asked in a very familiar tone.
“Nine Swords, you brought that little guy here to the Chaos City, right?”
Candley smiled slightly, his gaze swept over Xu Zong and Luo Feng, then fixed on Xu Zong.
“Hehe, you both are lucky. There is no one comprehending the Universe Chaos Stele and the Nine Universe Chaos Stele now. You can go in now. With your current level of comprehension of the rules, just look at the first three pictures. There’s no point in looking at the ones behind.”
“Candley has been guarding the Chaos Stele for a million epochs. These 52 are all his avatars, and their strength and methods are not inferior to mine.”
The Nine Sword Master introduced to Xu Zong and Luo Feng.
“Thank you for your guidance, Lord Candley.”
The two of them respectfully bowed to the three-eyed old man.
The three-eyed old man smiled slightly, then waved his sleeve, and the two bronze doors inscribed with “Universe” and “Nine Universe” rumbled open, emitting a large amount of chaotic airflow inside, making it impossible to see the interior.
“I’ll leave you here. If you have any questions later, you can ask the reception envoys in the Chaos City. They wear black robes and answer all questions without reservation.”
The Nine Sword Master looked at Xu Zong and Luo Feng, and gave them a word of advice.
“Thank you for your guidance, Master!”
The two of them also hurriedly bowed. Even as a master, he could guide them into the Chaos City so carefully and speak so kindly. Even if there was an element of investment, it was enough to make them grateful.
“Go in.”
The Nine Sword Master nodded with a smile.
Xu Zong and Luo Feng looked at each other, took a deep breath, and walked into the bronze doors of the Chaos Stele they had chosen.
With a rumble, after they entered, the bronze doors closed.
“Is this little guy Xu Zong really as powerful as you say?”
Seeing that both of them had entered the bronze doors, Candley also relaxed a bit. Without the burden of a strong person, he couldn’t help but ask the Nine Sword Master incredulously.
“He’s much more powerful than you know!”
The Nine Sword Master smiled slightly, full of admiration.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have personally gone to greet him. Even if he had to come back to headquarters to welcome the new recruits in three years, he didn’t need to come back now, but it was because Xu Zong had that value.
Candley couldn’t help but be amazed. Even if he had read through the entire history of the human race several times, it was still rare for someone to cultivate in both time and space at the stellar stage and achieve results!
“Have they decided who will teach him on the company’s headquarters side?”
The Nine Sword Master asked Candley in return.
“The masters are all arguing about it.”
Candley remembered the scene of those masters shamelessly fighting over recruits and couldn’t help but laugh.
“However, a genius of this level is not qualified to be taught by an ordinary master. In the end, it was the Lord of the Universe who came forward and settled the matter.”
“Which Lord of the Universe?”
The Nine Sword Master’s heart skipped a beat, and he continued to ask.
“Who else could it be?”
Candley shrugged, and with a knowing look, he laughed.
“This time and space cultivator is right up that person’s alley!”
…………
After entering the training chamber, Xu Zong didn’t want to delay for a minute and quickly walked towards the depths.
In the midst of the chaotic airflow, a huge stele loomed faintly.
The stele was about a hundred meters high and wide, with the word “Universe” written in the universal language on its edge. Each picture on the stele looked exactly the same as the ones seen on the outside corridor, but the taste was completely different. The patterns on this chaotic stele were much deeper and more mysterious.
Xu Zong approached the Universe Chaos Stele and took a quick look around. This Universe Chaos Stele had a total of twelve pictures, with a transition every three pictures.
In the first three pictures, the first picture showed two streams crossing, each with nine lines; the second picture showed two small rivers crossing, each with twenty-seven lines; the third picture showed two vast rivers crossing, each with seventy-two lines.
In the middle three pictures, the fourth picture showed two planetary systems entangled with each other, the fifth picture showed two star systems entangled with each other, and the sixth picture was simply two large star systems entangled with each other.
In the last three pictures, the seventh picture showed a huge black hole and a white hole, the eighth picture showed a large number of black holes and white holes, and the ninth picture showed countless black holes and white holes.In the last three images, the tenth was a massive galaxy cluster, the eleventh an even more colossal supercluster, and the twelfth, the final image, was simply a pitch-black universe composed of countless superclusters.
“Abstract, way too abstract!”
Xu Zong shook his head as he looked on; he could grasp something from the first six images, but the last six were completely beyond his comprehension.
The artistic sense was too strong, surpassing the understanding of ordinary people.
It seemed he could only start with the first three images, which should be the easiest for him to comprehend at this stage.
Xu Zong opened the chat group, took a photo with it, and then uploaded the picture to the group.
He wanted to test if the photo taken in the chat group could retain the aura of the Chaos Stele. However, the photo uploaded to the group was just an ordinary stele picture. Although it had a certain charm, it did not capture the essence of the Chaos Stele.
Xu Zong could only sigh in disappointment, although this was somewhat expected.
Giving up on being clever, Xu Zong sat cross-legged in front of the first image and quickly entered a state of contemplation.
He instantly activated his Recall Killer talent, sending a wisp of consciousness into his memories to maintain the state, while the rest of his consciousness focused entirely on comprehending the Chaos Stele.
Inside his world ring, the second spirit Xu Zong also entered a state of contemplation, rapidly comprehending through shared vision, memory, and consciousness.
What was left on the Chaos Stele was not a method of combat, nor secret technique patterns, but pure law comprehension.
The main body Xu Zong contemplated the law of time, while the second spirit contemplated the law of space. They occasionally exchanged insights, and the second spirit Xu Zong practiced the spacetime vortex from time to time, causing his understanding of the laws to skyrocket as if riding a rocket.
During this process, the most bug-like aspect was his Recall Killer state, which greatly increased Xu Zong’s neural reaction speed, akin to accelerated time.
Others had only seven days of contemplation time, but for him, it was far more!
Moreover, he could occasionally have breakthroughs without any bottlenecks!
For a full seven days, Xu Zong was completely immersed in the comprehension of the Chaos Stele.
After those seven days.
A thunderous boom sounded as the bronze gate swung open.
“Come out——!”
A voice came from the gate, pouring into Xu Zong’s mind and startling him awake from his contemplation.
He subconsciously wanted to continue his contemplation, but the voice in his mind grew louder and louder until it became unbearable, causing him a headache. He had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the bronze gate.
After stepping out of the gate, the bronze door quickly closed again.
On the other side, Luo Feng also walked out of the Chaos Stele’s secret chamber with reluctance. There were already several people waiting at the door. Seeing him emerge, they rushed in impatiently, and only then did the bronze gate close.
“This is your first time entering the cultivation chamber, so let me remind you, now you can find a residence to serve as your cultivation ground for the next thirty years, and then enter the virtual universe to apply for ‘Heaven’s Bridge.’”
The three-eyed elder, Candley, looked at the two and offered a friendly tip.
“Heaven’s Bridge?”
Luo Feng looked over in confusion.
“That place is used to test the level of your law comprehension. Once you go in, you’ll understand.”
Candley smiled slightly and said no more.
Luo Feng had no choice but to stop his inquiries and left the cultivation chamber with Xu Zong, heading towards the outside of the city lord’s mansion.
“Xiao Zong, how was your comprehension?”
“Great gains!”
Xu Zong couldn’t help but reveal a confident expression, followed by a sigh.
“Unfortunately, the Chaos Stele can only be contemplated for seven days at a time. The time is really too short; otherwise, I’m confident I could directly comprehend up to the level of a Universe Overlord, or even higher!”
“Haha, I don’t have as much confidence as you, but the Chaos Stele is indeed a treasure. If there were more opportunities to comprehend it, that would be great!”
Luo Feng laughed, his eyes also full of longing.
Comprehending in front of the Chaos Stele allowed him to feel his law comprehension level rising at a visibly rapid pace, a rate of improvement that was truly irresistible.
The two left Chaos City and first found a black-robed receptionist to ask many questions, resolving many doubts, and then chose two adjacent small buildings in Chaos City to reside in.
After settling in, they didn’t rush to explore the city but first logged into the virtual universe.
Virtual Universe.
Xu Zong and Luo Feng appeared one after the other in the Nine Stars Bay community on Black Dragon Island. The residents of Nine Stars Bay had changed at some point, with many familiar faces gone, replaced by faces that looked wealthy and dignified.
“Virtual Universe notification: You have gained a new function that allows you to teleport directly to a special plane within the virtual universe.”
The gentlemanly sprite Suiling, perched on Xu Zong’s shoulder, informed him.
Beside them, Babata also reminded Luo Feng.
The two exchanged glances and simultaneously used the function.
“Teleport!”
