Chapter 277, Venerable Mingwu
On that blue planet in the solar system, Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, walked on the sea. He looked at an iceberg about a hundred meters in diameter that was slowly drifting with the ocean current in the distance, lifted his foot and walked up to it.
On the iceberg, besides the disheveled man with only a tattered hemp garment around his waist, there was also an ice bear several meters long.
Ye Muxuan glanced at the ice bear, who, upon seeing the thin, small upright ape, involuntarily lay down, grinning but with its teeth tucked in, and then rolled over to expose its belly.
The instinct ingrained in its genes told it that this upright ape was dangerous and that it would die if it did not obey, so it chose to expose its belly to show its submission.
"Looks like you've gained a lot." Ye Muxuan nodded as his gaze swept over the ice bear rolling over and acting cute, looking at Mingyu who looked like a wild man.
Perhaps it was because Mingyu had become one with the environment, or perhaps it was because he was new to the place. In any case, the ice bear could sense his terror, yet it ignored Mingyu completely. Unless Mingyu had been with the ice bear since it was born, Mingyu had at least reached a terrifying level in terms of mental state and ability to conceal his aura.
"I have already seen the path ahead. In about a million years, I will be able to break through to become the Lord of the Universe, and I have also seen the path to becoming the strongest." Mingyu, who was dressed like a wild man with a tattered hemp robe around his waist, was not surprised at all when he saw Ye Muxuan's sudden appearance. He reached out and stroked the ice bear's belly a few times, causing the ice bear to flank its short limbs and roll on the ice.
"Remember what I told you? It's best not to interfere with the life forms on this planet. These creatures that haven't developed intelligence are fine, but if they are humans, don't actively intervene." Ye Muxuan looked at Mingyu, his voice slow but solemn. "Your current access level should allow you to obtain some information about the Mountain-Sitting Guest. If there is one strongest being in the primordial universe who can make the entire human race wary, it is him."
"I've been on this planet for tens of millions of years, and I even found a fragment of the Heavenly Soul Crystal that recorded that secret technique. But I know that since failing to recognize a master at the Star Tower, even if I were resurrected, I would no longer be qualified to continue down that path." Mingyu spoke, but did not respond to Ye Muxuan's words. His gaze fell on the distant horizon, in the direction of the Qingyuan Universe Kingdom. A fragmented metal plate appeared in his hand. After weighing it for a moment, he casually tossed it into the ocean beneath the iceberg. "I thought about this for many years, and finally determined that from the moment I failed, I was no longer the leader of the Origin Star. After being resurrected, I am just Mingyu, and I am not qualified to be the ruler of the Qingyuan Kingdom. Therefore, the position of ruler has been passed on to the future."
Ye Muxuan frowned slightly.
Inside the core hall of the Star Tower, Puti, who was nominally still the overlord of the universe but was actually the master of the universe, was still waiting for his third junior brother to arrive.
Meanwhile, in the distant North China Snowfield Domain of the cosmic sea, a pair of eyes suddenly rose, their gaze seemingly able to penetrate the membrane of the primordial universe and extend all the way to this planet.
"Now I have found my direction, my mind is at peace, and it is naturally easier to break through. As for the things about the Mountain Guest and the Origin Star, they are no longer a problem from the moment I was resurrected." Mingyu said, revealing a relieved smile, smooth, flawless, and perfect.
The bears, fish, krill, and birds around us, as well as the icebergs, ocean, sky, and the entire space and time, all seem to be smiling!
His will has already influenced this space-time!
Ye Muxuan smiled slowly.
Mingyu has taken this step! The human race is about to welcome an illusion-style powerhouse even stronger than the Dark Lord who was once the Lord of the Universe!
"Have you considered taking him as a disciple? In the recent Genius Battle of the Virtual Universe Company, a promising junior mentalist emerged. He's currently at the Universe level, but I estimate that once he reaches the World Lord level and displays his talent, some Universe Venerables or even Universe Lords will take him as a disciple." For cultivation, the World Lord level is a crucial stage. Many geniuses who were unremarkable before reach the World Lord level experience rapid advancement. Conversely, many geniuses who progress quickly before become just ordinary once they reach the World Lord level.
"Then I'll go see him and see if he's qualified to be my first disciple," Mingyu said, with the most natural and gentle smile on his face.
Since his resurrection over five billion years ago, he has risen from a marquis to one of the five top overlords of the human race, and now he has found his own path. Along the way, many rulers of nations and even cosmic lords have been willing to send their talented descendants to the tutelage of Venerable Mingwu, but he has not accepted a single one.
Ye Muxuan, the master of the Shadow Blade, has six personal disciples and a large number of nominal disciples. Other top overlords, such as Qingmei Venerable and Shihuo Venerable, also have many disciples. Only Mingwu Venerable has never had any nominal disciples. His closest people, besides his partner Hongyan, are Ye Muxuan's youngest daughter, Leyun.
Even so, Le Yun was not his personal disciple.
"Go to Chaos City again and inscribe a Chaos Stele. If your Illusionary Flow secret techniques are not passed down, it will be a loss for humanity." Ye Muxuan looked at Mingyu, who nodded after thinking for a moment. Then, he picked up one of the Ice Bear's legs with one hand, opened the Divine Kingdom Teleportation, and disappeared into the ice mountain with a bright light.
I
The primordial universe, Chaos City.
Mingyu, now fully armored in dark red, walked the streets of Chaos City with an adorable, head-shaking ice bear by his side, attracting some attention.
Even though humanity now has four strongest individuals, the Primordial Universe remains a sacred cultivation ground for humanity due to the outward manifestation of its Law Runes. Moreover, with the number of King-level Immortals skyrocketing and the number of Venerables exceeding six thousand, Chaos City is much more bustling than it was hundreds of thousands of years ago. Not to mention, it's only been a little over a decade since the Genius Battle hosted by the Virtual Universe Company ended, and they've only been in Chaos City for a few years. This is precisely the time when these youngsters are full of energy exploring the Chaos True Spirit, one of the three treasures of Chaos City.
With the increase in Venerables, five new top-tier cosmic overlords have emerged, and the number of cosmic lords has increased by ten compared to hundreds of thousands of epochs ago. Therefore, the number of Chaos Steles has increased from 53 after Ye Muxuan carved them to 61.
There are now 61 schools of thought in Chaos City.
In the Chaotic Ruins, a man in a white robe, gentle and refined, with soft and clear eyes, suddenly brightened when he saw Mingyu walking unhurriedly down the street.
"It seems that our human race will soon have another universe lord," the white-robed progenitor said, his voice full of satisfaction.
"That's right. In the Illusionary Realm, he's already comparable to the Lord of the Underworld. I feel he's even stronger than the True Demon God of the Universe at the Lord stage." Ye Muxuan, in a black robe with embroidered patterns, spoke up next to the white-robed progenitor, his voice filled with undisguised admiration. "Since it's inconvenient for Uncle Dark to show up, he'll be the face of the human race in the Illusionary Realm from now on."
Because of the supreme illusionary treasure, the Yellow Spring Bell, the Lord of the Underworld once overpowered the Chaos City Lord, the Star River Lord, and the Golden Horn Lord, who possessed a supreme domain treasure, during a competition for a supreme treasure on the Primordial Star. He was hailed as the strongest universe lord in the illusionary arts since the False True Demon God, without exception. Even the Dark Lord at the time, due to the treasure, paled in comparison.
However, now that there are illusion-type natal array plates, and the Lord of Darkness is already a Dark Demon God, the two naturally cannot be compared.
Mingyu walked down the main street of Chaos City without any attempt to conceal himself, and soon, many Kings and Venerables noticed him. Although it was somewhat strange that he was accompanied by an ice bear that wasn't even an apprentice, the news that Venerable Mingwu had suddenly appeared in Chaos City after more than two hundred thousand epochs of silence still spread throughout the Hong Alliance.
