Chapter 167 Chaos City
The headquarters of Virtual Universe Corporation is located on a vast and boundless supercontinent.
Yes, a continent with a diameter of tens of light-years would take decades to travel from one end to the other without using the dark universe to travel.
So much so that when Chen Yuan and the others saw this continent through the spaceship's exterior simulation, the spaceship was still flying for more than ten hours before finally arriving at its destination.
Before a magnificent, dazzling, dreamlike corridor, Black Marquis's spaceship slowly landed.
The hatch opened, and Chen Yuan and the others stepped out of the spaceship one by one, led by the girl in the black veil.
Several staff members in uniform were already waiting in front of the corridor. Upon seeing the girl in black veil, they immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Lord Heiyan Marquis."
"Um."
The girl in black veil nodded and said calmly, "These people behind me are the core members of my Qianwu branch, Xinpu. Take them to the assembly point."
"Yes, ma'am." The uniformed staff member nodded respectfully.
"You guys, go in with them."
The girl in the black veil turned around and said to Chen Yuan and the others, "I won't see you off."
After saying that, she returned to the spaceship, which soon took off and headed back along the same route.
"Your Highnesses, please follow me."
As Chen Yuan and his entourage were about to enter the corridor under the guidance of the staff, suddenly someone called out, "Your Highness Chen Yuan!"
A shout came from outside the corridor. Chen Yuan turned around and saw another company uniformed staff member running towards him. "Your Highness, these are the items you purchased in the virtual universe. As per your request, the transaction will be completed at headquarters."
The other party handed Chen Yuan a spatial ring.
Chen Yuan took the ring, scanned it with his spiritual power, and nodded, saying, "The quantity is correct, thank you."
"Your Highness is too kind." The visitor smiled and turned to leave.
Chen Yuan then rejoined the group, and a moment later, they were led by staff to an oval-shaped hall.
"Your Highnesses, please wait here for a moment. Once everyone has arrived, we can enter the Initial Universe together."
The staff member left after speaking, as they needed to wait for other people outside.
Chen Yuan glanced around the hall and found that there were already more than a dozen people waiting inside; they were not the first group to arrive.
"Lord Black Annihilation Marquis once said during the voyage that all branch ships would arrive at headquarters on the same day."
Knowing that Chen Yuan had been in seclusion in his room on the spaceship, Nolan explained, "Let's find a place to wait. We should be able to gather everyone today."
So the group went into the hall. Since they weren't familiar with the geniuses from the other branches, they didn't join them, but instead found a corner to wait.
Time passed slowly as the group chatted idly, and the hall filled up with more and more people. About four hours later,
All members of the core team who were promoted to the next level have now arrived.
Just as the 100 geniuses gathered, a tall, thin man with red eyes dressed in a white robe suddenly appeared and said in a hoarse voice, "Everyone, please follow me."
Despite saying it was an invitation, the tall, thin man with red eyes actually used his Force to grab everyone and fly them out of the hall.
With a "whoosh," the group flew at an extremely fast speed, and in just a few minutes, they were brought to an area resembling a helipad, where they stopped in front of a strangely shaped, dark blue spaceship.
"Everyone, please board the ship."
The red-eyed man spoke calmly. As the spaceship hatch opened, Chen Yuan took the lead and walked in, and the others followed suit.
As the hatch closed, the strange, dark blue spaceship slowly started up.
All one hundred geniuses who were promoted this time gathered in the spaceship's main hall. Since the exterior simulation was not activated, Chen Yuan and the others did not know where the spaceship was.
A few minutes later.
"What happened?"
"My body feels so strange—"
"I can't stand up!"
Suddenly, the geniuses in the spaceship's main hall turned pale and could barely stand.
Soon everyone collapsed to the ground, and many even shed tears. Nuolan also had a ferocious expression, except for Chen Yuan, who remained standing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the spaceship is currently en route to the initial universe. The flow of time may be somewhat erratic, which is normal."
At that moment, an electronic voice rang out in the spaceship's main hall, explaining to everyone.
Upon hearing this, everyone could only struggle to hold on, except for Chen Yuan, who remained unfazed.
The reason he was unaffected was simple: firstly, his immortal soul increased his body's endurance; secondly, he had comprehended the laws of time, making him more resistant to such chaotic time environments.
About ten minutes later, the unpleasant feeling finally disappeared, and the people who had collapsed to the ground got up and used their Force to evaporate their tears.
After a while.
"Gentlemen, you have successfully arrived at the 'City of Chaos' in the initial universe. You may now leave."
"After entering Chaos City, please strictly follow the arrangements made by the reception envoy."
After the electronic voice finished speaking, the spaceship hatch opened.
As Chen Yuan and the others left the spaceship, what came into view was a majestic and ancient city, standing grandly under the chaotic sky.
"Is this the City of Chaos?"
Chen Yuan stood in mid-air, looking down at the city below that exuded an aura of vicissitudes, and then looking up at the sky that was faintly visible and interwoven with various laws and patterns, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The other geniuses traveling with him were also awestruck by the sight before them, looking around with curiosity.
They occasionally let out exclamations of surprise.
Just then, a black streak of light streaked across the sky and appeared before the crowd in the blink of an eye, revealing a man dressed in a black robe with his face covered in blue scales. He smiled at the crowd and said, "Greetings, everyone. I am the reception envoy from Chaos City."
Please come with me.
Led by the black-robed messenger, the group landed in the city and walked slowly along the ancient streets.
Along the way, the envoy explained in detail the history and origins of Chaos City, its rules and regulations, and the many benefits of cultivating here, especially the mysteries of the Chaos Stele!
When the group arrived at the city lord's mansion, the black-robed envoy turned around and said, "Come in, everyone. In the corridor inside, there are rubbings of 52 Chaos Steles."
"You have half an hour to choose the Chaos Stele that suits you."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately entered the city lord's mansion and viewed the various rubbings of the Chaos Stele in the corridor.
Meanwhile, at the other end of Chaos City, inside cultivation residence number 0290028981.
"Luo Feng, wake up!"
Luo Feng, who was immersed in cultivation, was once again awakened by Babata's voice.
"Babata, what's wrong now?"
Luo Feng reluctantly opened his eyes and looked at the little black devil in front of him.
"This time it's really something big."
Babata looked extremely shocked. He collected his thoughts and slowly said, "You should know that besides the Genius Battle, there are also channels for upgrading to the core level within the Virtual Universe Company."
"I know," Luo Feng nodded, then asked疑惑地问道, "But what does that have to do with me?"
He thought to himself that he had been promoted through the talent competition, so what did the company's internal promotion mechanism have to do with him?
"The problem is that a group of core geniuses who were promoted through internal channels have just entered Chaos City."
Babata took a deep breath, not knowing why, as an intelligence, he still possessed the ability to breathe.
He slowly uttered a bombshell: "Among this group of geniuses, I saw a familiar face, and you know this person too."
"Do I know him?"
Luo Feng racked his brains to recall, but he couldn't figure out who it could be. He could only shake his head and say, "Who is it? Stop being so mysterious and just tell me."

Babata casually uttered two words: "Chen Yuan!"
"Who are you talking about?"
Upon hearing this name, Luo Feng's eyes widened in disbelief: "Chen Yuan?!"
