Provocation by Aliens

In the plaza, countless inheritors of other races gazed at Wu Qingfeng from afar, their eyes filled with jealousy, mockery, and greed. "That's Wu Qingfeng, the legendary new human genius Realm Lord. Indeed, how many Realm Lords in countless eras can be ranked on the fourth level of the inheritance list?"

"In the world of glory, divine bodies and weapons are all equal. Without the blessing of a supreme treasure, he can only barely reach the fourth level at most! How can he compare to us, the inheritors of veteran Venerables?"

"Challenge him! Trample this human genius! We can earn glory points and vent our anger!" Challenge letters flooded into the black book like a tidal wave, and in a short time, the number exceeded 40,000.

Wu Qingfeng's lips curled into a cold smile as his fingertips traced the black book. He spoke calmly, "Since so many people want to fight, then I will accept." He knew that these alien races only wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate him, but they didn't know that even without the blessing of a supreme treasure, his laws and insights alone were enough to crush the vast majority of inheritors in the world of Glory.

These tens of thousands of challenges often involve more than one Glory Point bet, but at most three, since newcomers only have three points at the start.

These challenges will not only earn him a huge amount of glory points, but also allow him to hone his skills in the laws of the game. Why not?

Previously, Wu Qingfeng had just entered the Glory World and given himself a name, which is when the Glory World truly had the identity of "Xin Huan".

Before that...

Even if those alien races wanted to challenge Wu Qingfeng, they couldn't find a target at all. Now that Wu Qingfeng has appeared in the open-air square of the Glory World, and after checking the inheritors, it was discovered that there was suddenly a Xin Huan on the fourth level. The news spread like wildfire, and almost everyone knew about it.

There are countless people who want to fight against the legendary human genius "Xin Huan". Wu Qingfeng is a "fourth-level Beast God Inheritor". Among the inheritors, the "third level" is obviously the most numerous, followed by the fourth level. Being able to step into the fourth level of inheritance as a world lord makes countless alien races both jealous and resentful.

The number of inheritors exceeds one hundred million! Among them, Universe Venerables are extremely rare, and the number of inheritors who have been granted the title of King and Immortal still exceeds one hundred million! Almost all the peerless geniuses who have cultivated for billions of years have reached the 'Third Level,' with only a few reaching the 'Third Level Perfection' beginning their quest to comprehend the 'Fourth Level.' Wu Qingfeng, as a Realm Lord, has already entered the Fourth Level of inheritance, far surpassing his peers. Even the Jade Sword King only stepped into the Fourth Level of inheritance after cultivating for tens of thousands of epochs on the third level. A slightly deeper understanding of the Fourth Level of inheritance is enough to break through to the Venerable level.

Therefore, the most numerous are triple inheritors! Next are quadruple inheritors! Then come double inheritors! Next are five-fold inheritors! Next are six-fold inheritors! Next are seven-fold inheritors! And then there are single-fold inheritors!

The Seventh-Level Inheritors represent the level of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master, incredibly close to the Guardian Beast Gods. They are extremely rare, numbering only a few dozen. If a Seventh-Level Inheritor comprehends the Heart of the Beast God, they can break through to the Universe Lord level.

However, the number of first-level inheritors is the smallest, zero! Even those who are newcomers usually have some foundation, but there isn't a single one who is at the 'first level'.

King Qianyu, King Lishuo, and King Yujian all noticed Wu Qingfeng staring at the black book. His gaze was calm, but he couldn't hide the sharpness in his eyes. "What are you looking at?" King Qianyu called out, his tone tinged with curiosity.

"Phew." Wu Qingfeng looked at his three friends from the Hong Alliance beside him. News of so many alien challenges to him would spread quickly, so there was no need to hide it. He immediately lowered his voice and said, "I have received many challenge letters."

"A lot?" King Li Shuo, King Yu Jian, and King Qian Yu were all taken aback, especially King Yu Jian, who knew the value of a fourth-level inheritor and was also aware of how amazing Wu Qingfeng's reputation was.

"How much, a thousand?" King Li Shuo immediately realized something was wrong as soon as he opened his mouth and shook his head. "Qingfeng, your reputation is just too great. You, as a World Lord, have already stepped into the fourth level of inheritance and obtained the third treasure. And the inheritors come from billions of races in the universe, each of them is a peerless genius. Many of them are not convinced until they have truly fought you, and some even want to take this opportunity to thoroughly crush you, a peerless genius known to billions of races in the universe. Hmm, there will be a lot of challenge letters. You have just entered the Glory World, and you will probably receive tens of thousands of them."

Jade Sword King and Thousand Rain King both looked at Wu Qingfeng, their eyes filled with anticipation and worry.

"It's already over 50,000!" Wu Qingfeng said in a low voice, while simultaneously shielding the surroundings. External sounds could come in, but internal sounds would not be transmitted out.

"Fifty thousand?" King Li Shuo's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

"Fifty thousand." King Li Shuo's expression was incredibly complex. He had endured countless years in this world of glory, yet the total number of battles he had fought was less than a thousand. Meanwhile, Wu Qingfeng had only appeared for a short while, yet the number of challenge letters had already exceeded fifty thousand. The difference was so vast that it was truly astonishing.

"So many... this is only a short while!" King Qianyu was also stunned. Although he had received many challenges, he had never seen such a terrifying number.

"It seems," the Jade Sword King said somewhat dejectedly, "that I underestimated the determination of those despicable alien races to fight you, Qingfeng. Your reputation is simply too great, and you are merely a Realm Lord. In the Glory World, many treasures and artifacts from the outside world are useless. You will be at a great disadvantage when you exert your strength. Firstly, they want to fight against you, a super genius renowned among billions of races in the universe; secondly, they want to bully you; and thirdly, they believe they are stronger than you—after all, you are only a Realm Lord, yet you occupy a position of fourth-level inheritance. Many Venerables are not convinced, since the vast majority of those in the fourth level are Venerables, and the next level are geniuses at the invincible King level."

Wu Qingfeng glanced at the black book; the number of challenge letters had already exceeded 60,000, and the number was still climbing rapidly. There were more alien powerhouses who wanted to fight him than he had expected.

"Qingfeng, you are a fourth-level inheritor," King Qianyu said. "And in the entire inheritance ground, third-level and fourth-level inheritors together account for more than 99% of all inheritors! Among them, third-level inheritors are the most numerous, exceeding 90 million, while fourth-level inheritors number nearly 10 million! Even if only one percent of them challenged you, you would receive 100,000 challenge letters!"

Wu Qingfeng nodded, his expression remaining calm; he had long anticipated this scene. "However, you must be careful and not engage in battle lightly," King Qianyu immediately and solemnly instructed. "In battles within the Glory World, all inheritors use the same divine body—a divine body with 10 times the power of a World Lord! Their appearance and physique can be customized, but their divine body strength is identical. Their weapons must also be chosen within the Glory World; they are all very standard weapons… Therefore, all inheritors have the same external conditions."

"All your treasures and artifacts from the outside world, as well as any special abilities gained from fortuitous encounters, have vanished. In battle, you can only use the Fusion Law," King Qianyu said. "In the battle world of Glory, using other laws will be ineffective; only the Fusion Law can generate power."

Wu Qingfeng listened attentively, his fingertips lightly tapping the black book, already having made a plan in his mind.

"The Insect King is a unique life form in the universe, but in the battle world of Glory, he doesn't have that heaven-defying divine body, the terrifying talent and secret techniques, the supreme treasures, etc... so he becomes ordinary. Back then, he could only be considered above average among the triple inheritors, and when he became a quadruple inheritor, he was ranked even lower than average," said King Qianyu.

Jade Sword King also frowned and said, "Moreover, the consciousness of a Realm Lord is much weaker than that of an Immortal, let alone a Venerable. You will be at a great disadvantage. Although you have entered the fourth level of inheritance as a Realm Lord and your understanding of the laws is no less than that of an ordinary fourth level inheritor, the strength of your consciousness is limited by your realm and is ultimately no match for an Immortal. In battle, you will easily be suppressed by the opponent's consciousness."

"Heart Illusion," the title Li Shuo Wang used to address Wu Qingfeng, was a self-chosen one. "The alien powerhouses are all peerless geniuses from various races across the universe. In terms of secret techniques, many have created their own peak techniques, and some have even created ultimate techniques! In terms of understanding the laws, many of the fourth-level inheritors have already touched the perfect realm. In terms of divine body amplification techniques, which of these geniuses doesn't have some amplification techniques? Their willpower and consciousness are also all top-notch."

Wu Qingfeng gasped in shock. Ultimate techniques? His highest achievement was creating an ultimate technique, enough to catch the Dark Lord's eye. In this place where hundreds of millions of peerless geniuses from all races of the universe gathered, the fourth level consisted of a few invincible super geniuses at the King level and the initial Venerable level; most could create their own peak techniques, so Wu Qingfeng wasn't surprised. But to think that a few had created ultimate techniques! That truly shocked Wu Qingfeng. Generally, the fifth and sixth levels were only at the ultimate technique level. It seemed he couldn't be too arrogant; otherwise, if he gambled in the battle world, and luckily the first one to create an ultimate secret technique happened to counter him, he might lose without any chance of recovery.

"The Ancestral God Sect collects peerless geniuses from billions of races across the universe. Different races have different talents and even different life essences. Some are heaven-defying in their divine bodies, while others possess heaven-defying secret techniques. It's not surprising that a few freaks could create 'ultimate techniques'," Wu Qingfeng thought to himself. But he forgot... he was the freak in the eyes of countless alien races—a World Lord who had stepped into the fourth level of the Beast God inheritance. Such talent was unparalleled in the entire Glory World.

"You'll receive many challenges, but you can't accept them lightly. Once you do, you must fight. You can only cancel the challenge when you've lost all your Glory Points," the Jade Sword King said solemnly. "You must be careful. You've just entered the Glory World and only have 3 Glory Points at the start. Once you lose them all, you won't be able to fight again for a while, and you'll be ridiculed by the alien races, ruining your reputation."

Wu Qingfeng nodded. He naturally understood the implications. Even with his profound understanding of the laws, he couldn't act rashly. After all, the rules of the Glory World limited many of his advantages, so he had to proceed with caution. At that moment, a cacophony of voices arose from afar: "Lord of the Heart Illusion Realm, I, the Gluttonous Mirror King of the Demon Clan, challenge you! Do you dare accept?"

"Name your bet, haha, you probably only have 3 Glory Points, right? I'll bet you 3 Glory Points, are you in or not?"

"I seriously doubt whether you have that kind of strength. You have such a great reputation, but you're just a Realm Lord. How did you manage to step into the fourth level of inheritance? I'm afraid it's all due to a lot of fortuitous encounters."

Various voices, all speaking in awkward human language, some high-pitched, some shrill, some low, some like thunder, some hoarse and echoing… In an instant, alien races were provoking from all directions across the open-air plaza. Yes, they were provoking! Geniuses? Each of them was an unparalleled genius in their respective races, especially in the battle world, where they abandoned all treasures and special methods. Under such circumstances, how could they easily submit to a realm lord? Moreover, this realm lord had entered the fourth level of inheritance at a speed far exceeding theirs, stealing the limelight that should have belonged to the immortal powerhouse.

"Do you think the Lord of the Heart Illusion Realm will accept the challenge?" a tall, slender, and dignified powerful figure with nine green leaves on his head asked.

"He might get carried away and fight foolishly once or twice, but after losing, he'll understand the strength of many powerful alien races. There will definitely be many who challenge him this time. Although the three of us have challenged him, it's estimated that it won't be our turn. He only has three Glory Points, which will be used up quickly. Once he's used up all his Glory Points, he won't be able to fight anymore."

These three powerful beings, with their skin mottled with green and black, green leaves on their heads, and skin resembling tree bark, conversed with each other. They were plant life forms, the "Mortal Spirit Clan," without gender, and all of them were born from the ancestral trees of the Mortal Spirit Clan.

The challenges from peerless geniuses from various races indeed ignited Wu Qingfeng's fighting spirit. Having cultivated for so long, his predecessor had experienced countless battles, but he, having transmigrated, had never directly clashed with peerless geniuses of the same level. Especially this scene, where all external aids were discarded and the duel relied purely on the fusion of laws, made him even more eager. However, he still retained his rationality and dared not underestimate these alien geniuses. These were not the mediocre powerhouses of the extraterrestrial battlefields; almost all of them possessed self-created peak-level techniques, not to mention those who had created ultimate techniques.

However, he didn't care about the demon race's title of king. They weren't even Venerables. At most, they possessed peak secret techniques, which his ultimate secret techniques could easily crush!

"It's still climbing." Wu Qingfeng glanced at the number of challenge letters on the open black book; it had already exceeded 10 and was still growing at an alarming rate.
