Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Initial universe, Chaos City.

Wow!
The spaceship stopped above Chaos City, the hatch opened, and the Nine Swords Master and Wang Xiu flew out.

As for the immortal who had performed the divine kingdom teleportation, he left immediately after arriving at the Virtual Universe Company's universal headquarters.

Although the status of immortals is very high, not everyone can enter the original universe casually.

Except for those who are qualified to live in Chaos City permanently, everyone else who wants to enter Chaos City must either spend points or spend money in the outside world to obtain entry qualifications at an auction.

Like the immortal in black armor who performed the teleportation from the Kingdom of God, as an immortal god in the virtual universe company, although he is qualified to enter the Chaos City of the Initial Universe, he must consume points if he wants to stay in the Chaos City.

For immortals, points are precious, and they will not waste them unless necessary.

As for Wang Xiu...

As a genius at the core of the Virtual Universe Company, he is naturally qualified to enter Chaos City.

When they first joined (cosmic level), they had the opportunity to practice in Chaos City for about 30 years for free, which was also the first time Wang Xiu and his friends went to Chaos City.

At the Domain Lord level, one has the opportunity to practice in the Chaos City of the Initial Universe for about 300 years for free.

When you reach the Realm Lord level, you have the opportunity to practice in Chaos City for about 3000 years for free.

These are free.

If the free time is used up and you still want to practice in Chaos City, you will have to spend points.

But this time is different, this time Wang Xiu is getting it for free.

Although it was unclear whether it was the privilege of the Nine Swords Venerable as a Universe Venerable, or whether the Nine Swords Venerable secretly paid for his points. Anyway, the last time he came with the Nine Swords Venerable, the virtual universe system did not deduct his points.

To this Wang Xiu could only say... it feels great!
"You've been here once before, so I won't go with you this time." In mid-air, the Nine Swords Master looked at Wang Xiu and said, "When you come out, you can contact me through the virtual universe network."

"Yes." Although Wang Xiu was a little surprised, he still nodded obediently.

"Yes." Seeing this, the Nine Swords Master nodded, then disappeared in a flash.

Seeing the Nine Swords Master leave, Wang Xiu no longer hesitated and flew directly towards the street below.

Whoosh!
Soon, Wang Xiu arrived in front of the city lord's mansion.

The gate of the City Lord's Mansion is always open, and people often come in and out of the Mansion.

Wang Xiu successfully entered the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion and arrived in front of the inner court of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Coincidentally, the two immortal gods who were standing here the last time Wang Xiu came were responsible for guarding the inner palace of the City Lord.

"you again?"

It had been only fifty or sixty years since Wang Xiu last came to see the Lord of Chaos City according to the outside world, and less than twenty years inside Chaos City.

For immortal gods with eternal lifespans, less than twenty years is like the blink of an eye.

The two immortal gods who were in charge of guarding the inner palace of the City Lord obviously still remembered Wang Xiu, the ninth-level cosmic-grade little fellow.

"Are you here to ask to see the Lord of Chaos City again?" one of the immortal gods said with a smile.

They were responsible for guarding the inner palace of the City Lord and were well-informed. They already knew that this little fellow in front of them, who was only at the ninth level of the Universe Grade, had been accepted as a registered disciple by the Chaos City Lord, so their attitude was naturally friendly.

"That's right, please report to both of you." Wang Xiu smiled and bowed politely.

"It's a small matter." The immortal god who spoke smiled and nodded, "Wait a moment."

After saying this, he walked towards the main gate of the inner palace.

After a moment, the immortal spirit returned.

"You can go in now. Go directly to the city lord's villa in Chaos Ruins where he will be waiting for you." The immortal god said with a smile.

"Thank you." Wang Xiu replied politely, then walked through the inner palace gate and went inside.

Walking along the corridor, Wang Xiu soon saw the familiar courtyard.

"Chaos Ruins." Looking at the familiar handwriting, Wang Xiu paused for a moment, then took a step forward.

Boom!

As time and space changed, Wang Xiu appeared on a vast continent of ruins. The corpses of hundreds of millions of tribes were scattered all over the place. In the distance, a figure was sitting cross-legged in meditation.

"Teacher." Wang Xiu stepped forward, being careful not to step on the corpses beneath his feet, and bowed respectfully.

The figure slowly stood up.

Turning to look at Wang Xiu, the pair of eyes on that ferocious face were still as gentle as jade. The Chaos City Lord smiled and looked at Wang Xiu deeply, then nodded: "You surprise me."

"Fifty times the genetic level, no wonder he can go so far on the Ice Heritage Ladder."

"Teacher, you... know?" Wang Xiu said in surprise.

"Haha." The Lord of Chaos City laughed. "Although you have restrained your aura perfectly, you don't think you can hide it from me, do you?"

"Uh...this..." Wang Xiu laughed awkwardly, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.

Of course I know I can't hide it from you. Everyone knows that you are invincible in the original universe.

But someone has to continue performing the play.

I can't possibly be the one who should be cooperating with you in your performance and then turn a blind eye to it, right?

Although he complained in his heart, Wang Xiu didn't dare show it on his face.

"This little guy is still testing me?" Looking at Wang Xiu with a smirk on his face, the Lord of Chaos City felt a little funny.

Although Wang Xiu thought he acted very well, in the eyes of the Lord of Chaos City who had lived for endless years, his performance was full of flaws.

The Lord of Chaos City could tell at a glance that Wang Xiu was not nervous at all.

However, funny as it was, the Lord of Chaos City admired Wang Xiu's caution.

The path of cultivation is extremely dangerous. If you want to become a truly strong person, talent and a strong will are not enough. You must also be careful enough.

It is obvious that Wang Xiu has proven his talent and caution... Although Wang Xiu is still very immature in his eyes, it doesn't matter. As long as he has this cautious heart, it is enough.

"Okay, don't show off your acting skills in front of me." The Lord of Chaos City smiled and waved his hands.

"Uh..." Wang Xiu's eyes widened instantly. He was really frightened. Could it be that the Lord of Chaos could read minds?

My biggest secret won’t be exposed, right?
"Well, now it seems real." Seeing Wang Xiu's look of surprise and a hint of fear and uneasiness, the Lord of Chaos City laughed even more happily.

"Teacher, please stop teasing your disciple." Wang Xiu finally reacted and it seemed that... the Lord of Chaos City had no ill intentions.

“Humph, who asked you to put on a show in front of me?” The Lord of Chaos City glanced at Wang Xiu and said unhappily, “Don’t even mention me, your trick of concealing your aura can’t be hidden from even that kid Jiu Jian!”

"You don't really think that everyone doesn't know?"

Wang Xiu's eyes widened, and his mind suddenly buzzed. He instantly understood why the Nine Swords Master said those words to him in the spaceship before.

"So at that time, the Nine Swords Master knew that my genetic level had increased 50 times?"

Originally, Wang Xiu thought that the Nine Swords Master was simply talking about the fact that he had inherited the legacy of the Ice God, but he didn't expect that this was not what he was talking about at all.

“Now you understand?” Seeing Wang Xiu’s expression, the Chaos City Lord smiled and said, “Don’t be nervous. I’m not blaming you. On the path of cultivation, you should be cautious.”

"I just want you to know that you can distrust others, but the tribe will never betray you."

Wang Xiu was silent for a long time, then he raised his head and looked at the elder with a ferocious face but gentle eyes. He nodded solemnly and said, "Teacher, I understand."

Although Wang Xiu had known the character of the Lord of Chaos City for a long time, when the Lord of Chaos City really showed his love for him, Wang Xiu still felt touched.

At this moment, Wang Xiu was extremely grateful that he was in the Devouring Star World and was a disciple of the Chaos City Lord, rather than in some other world where people were eaten without blinking an eye.

If we really come to a world where it is common for masters and apprentices to stab each other in the back, well... it would be unpleasant to have to guard against both the enemy and your own people.

"Yes." The Lord of Chaos City nodded and continued, "Do you know why I accepted you as a registered disciple in advance?"

"Is it because the disciple has fused ten Blood Luo Crystals?" Wang Xiu retracted the scattered thoughts in his mind, and then hesitated.

"That's right." The Lord of Chaos nodded, "Your talent in the law of space is already very high. After fusing 10 Blood Crystals, your talent in the law of space has been further improved."

"More importantly, after fusing 10 Blood Luo Crystals, the power of Blood Luo will not only enhance your affinity with the laws of space, but all laws, including the law of the origin of time!"

"I had thought that when you become a domain master and come to Chaos City again, I would have you replace the Chaos Monument to comprehend the Chaos Monument of the Universe and comprehend the laws of the origin of time."

"If you can comprehend the laws of the origin of time half as fast as you comprehended the laws of the origin of space, I will accept you as my personal disciple."

"The Chaos Monument of the Universe? The Law of the Origin of Time?" Wang Xiu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the Lord of Chaos City would arrange this path for him.

"Yes." The Lord of Chaos nodded. "If you are only talented in the laws of the origin of space, then at most you will be a universe master in the future. You are not worthy of me taking you as my personal disciple."

"But if you also have a talent for the laws of the origin of time, even if it's only half as talented as you are in the laws of space, it means you have the potential to control time and space and become the master of the universe!"

“But that was before.” The Lord of Chaos City looked at Wang Xiu with interest. “Now you have almost completely accepted the entire Ice God General inheritance. Although you are only at the ninth level of the universe now, you will at least be a top universe overlord in the future.”

"With such potential, you are qualified to become my personal disciple."

"Are you willing to be my personal disciple?"

"Disciple Wang Xiu, greetings to the teacher." Wang Xiu knelt down and saluted without any hesitation.

"Haha, get up." The Chaos City Lord laughed.

Without seeing how the Chaos City Lord moved, Wang Xiu felt an irresistible force helping him stand up.

"Well, since you are already my direct disciple, I will give you two options." The Lord of Chaos City said with a smile, "One is to follow the steps and become an immortal god, then accept the inheritance of the Ice God General."

"This path is easier for you. It may seem great, but it has a limit. In the future, the strongest person will only be a top-level cosmic overlord. It is basically impossible for you to become the master of the universe."

"The other is what I said before, to comprehend the laws of time and space, follow the most orthodox path of cultivation, and become the master of the universe step by step."

“This road is a little more difficult, but there is no limit to the future.”

"Which one do you choose?" asked the Chaos City Lord with a smile.

"Disciple chooses the second path." After thinking for a moment, Wang Xiu replied solemnly.

Cultivating "time and space" is the most common path among the billions of races in the universe. 99.9% of the great masters of the universe follow this path.

Best of all, there is no limit!
Wang Xiu was not interested in becoming the so-called Ice God. If he wanted to, he would have accepted all the Ice God inheritance back at Demon Mountain. Why wait until today?

"Haha, good." The Chaos City Lord said with a smile, "You are quite ambitious!"

"My Virtual Universe Company trains talents. The more talented one is, the more resources they will get. Of course, the resources will be allocated when you reach the 'realm master level'. If you become my disciple, I will also give you some resources."

"Thank you, Teacher." Wang Xiu was secretly happy.

"I will grant you an additional 20 opportunities to comprehend the Cosmic Chaos Monument." The Lord of Chaos City said, "But you have to wait until you reach the Domain Lord level and come to Chaos City again to use it."

“As for those so-called training tasks at the Domain Lord level… just do what you want, and get through the Domain Lord level original Tongtian Mountain as soon as possible, and then break through to the Realm Lord.”

“Although I’m not sure how you did it… But with your body that can rival the peak of the Realm Lord level, staying at the Universe and Domain Lord levels won’t do you much good.”

"...Yes, teacher." Wang Xiu was speechless. This time even his underpants were seen naked. Fortunately, the Lord of Chaos City did not delve into it, otherwise it would be difficult for Wang Xiu to explain.

"Teacher, I have one more thing to ask." Wang Xiu said a little embarrassedly.

"Go ahead." The Chaos City Lord said with a smile.

"Disciple hasn't crossed the Tongtian Bridge yet..." Wang Xiu said a little embarrassedly.

“Haha.” Before Wang Xiu finished speaking, the Lord of Chaos City understood what Wang Xiu meant and said with a helpless smile, “Go ahead and try it yourself. I will count the extra quota for comprehending the Nine Universe Chaos Monument for you on the Cosmic Chaos Monument.”

"Hey, thank you, teacher." Wang Xiu immediately bowed and saluted.

"Yes." The Lord of Chaos nodded, and then continued, "From now on, you can directly teleport to my palace on Thunder Island."

"If you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask me in my palace on Thunder Island in the virtual universe." The Lord of Chaos City said, "As for this 'Chaos Ruins', you don't have to come here without my order."

"Yes, teacher." Wang Xiu said respectfully.

"Now you can retreat." The Lord of Chaos City smiled lightly, "Oh! Your authority has been increased, and you can find a lot of information you want to know through the virtual universe network."

"Disciple, I'll take my leave." Wang Xiu was happy and responded immediately.

Swish!
The Lord of Chaos City directly moved Wang Xiu out of Chaos Ruins.

The Lord of Chaos was the only one left in this ruined continent. Looking at this vast ruined land and the corpses of the millions of powerful people, the Lord of Chaos sat cross-legged again, sitting silently... (End of this chapter)
