Meeting at Yuxiang Mountain
Chapter 87 Meeting at Yuxiang Mountain
Virtual Universe, Yuxiang Mountain, Public Area.
"Zhou Tong, over here!"
On the second floor of Wanyu Building, by the window, Thor leaned out halfway and beckoned to Zhou Tong.
A nine-story black wooden building, surrounded by exotic flowers and plants, with a faint fragrance that instantly relaxes the mind. Such a tranquil environment could not possibly have been chosen by Thor.
Zhou Tong made a complaint and strode into Wanyu Building.
"Mr. Zhou Tong, it's been a long time!"
"Hello Zhou Tong!"
Lightsaber Aichen and Qianshui, the younger of the twin siblings, happened to be at Wanyu Tower. When they saw the missing person Zhou Tong, they greeted him.
Hello!
The two beautiful women stared intently at the five-colored mark on Zhou Tong's forehead, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief...
"Is the fundamental law acknowledged?"
Five? That's impossible!
On the second floor, there is a tea room.
As soon as Zhou Tong walked in, the conspicuous five-colored mark between his eyebrows immediately attracted the attention of Thor, Luo Feng, and Hong.
"Haven't seen you in a while, Zhou Tong. When did you start liking tattoos? And on your forehead no less?"
Thor's teasing tone made Luo Feng and Hong smile.
Suddenly, Babata appeared and slapped Thor on the head. Lord Mist was left on Earth by Thor.
"You ignorant bumpkin! That's a mark recognized by the fundamental laws of nature, Zhou Tong."
As he spoke, Babata flew around Zhou Tong twice.
"This is absolutely insane! Zhou Tong, you acknowledged five fundamental laws! How did you manage that?"
Thor then moved closer to Zhou Tong, staring intently at the five-colored mark on his forehead.
"This is the recognition of the fundamental law! Nothing special about it, is it?"
They were met with curious glances from Luo Feng and Hong Ye.
Zhou Tong sat down and said with a faint smile, "If you master your respective Three Thousand Great Daos, then recognizing the Origin Law will be a piece of cake. This will be of great benefit to you."
When the topic of the Three Thousand Great Daos came up, Luo Feng, Lei Shen, and Hong all couldn't help but frown.
Hong exclaimed, "The deeper we go, the more unfathomable the Three Thousand Great Daos become!"
Thor chimed in, "Brother Hong is right, especially when it comes to resources. The few Mixed Yuan Units we earned in the Genius Battle barely made a ripple before they were gone, but our progress in the Three Thousand Great Daos hasn't been much, and we're still a long way from mastering them."
After Zhou Tong left, Luo Feng also purchased a large amount of resources through the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, and the three of them almost spent all the funds they were allocated.
This is mainly due to the scarcity of high-quality resources from outside the region, leading to significant price premiums.
They were in a hurry to get the spaceship to the Virtual Universe Company's global headquarters, so they raised the price again. As a result, they didn't buy many resources, but spent a lot of money.
Luo Feng couldn't help but shake his head: "If Zhou Tong hadn't told me beforehand, I almost couldn't resist spending all my points to exchange for cultivation resources when I first saw the company's treasure vault."
Zhou Tong raised an eyebrow: "Points are crucial for your cultivation after arriving in Chaos City. Exchanging them for resources would be a huge loss."
Luo Feng nodded: "The company's treasure trove is extremely tempting. Even Babata urged me to get it. Only when I have it in my hands will I feel at ease. Fortunately, Hong and Thor restrained my impulse."
Hong Shen said earnestly, "In a sense, Luo Feng has never experienced the hardships of cultivation. Lei Shen and I have been groping our way forward in darkness and fog. The only thing we can rely on is the wisdom of our predecessors. If there are no cultivation techniques, we can only create them ourselves. If there are no resources, we have to compete with monsters."
"To be honest, seeing those cultivation techniques in the company's treasure trove that could be exchanged for just a hundred or so points almost made my Dao heart collapse, to exaggerate a bit..."
Beneath Hong's carefree, playful smile lies a deep well of past hardships and unwavering perseverance through an uncertain future.
Thor also sighed, "Looking at those cultivation techniques and the cultivation resources, I feel a sense of absurdity. Coupled with Zhou Tong's advice, Hong Ge and I deeply understand the value of points."
Zhou Tong nodded and said, "Cultivation emphasizes the methods, companions, resources, and location. Among these, the methods are the most difficult to obtain, especially those that guide the path forward. Companions are like-minded fellow cultivators. Resources and location are cultivation resources, and they are the easiest for us to obtain."
Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen nodded repeatedly.
The atmosphere was somewhat somber, and Thor, acting as the mediator, very sensibly changed the subject.
"What's Chaos City like? Zhou Tong, you've been here for so long, why don't you tell us about it?"
Zhou Tong smiled and gave a brief introduction.
The first of the three treasures of Chaos City is the 52 Chaos Steles, which represent 52 cultivation paths that at least the most powerful beings in the universe have already traversed, and that have led to the heavens.
The second is the manifest law, but the comprehension of the law depends heavily on individual talent, resulting in huge differences.
The third are the Chaos Beasts, whose life cores can strengthen the origin of the soul, enhance cultivation talent, and increase sensitivity to comprehend laws.
"The 52 Chaos Steles have been studied and comprehended by countless people over billions of years, and have also formed 52 schools of thought in Chaos City. Therefore, when you choose one, you should not only consider whether it suits you, but also the power it represents."
Thor asked curiously, "Then which Chaos Monument is the most powerful?"
Zhou Tong: "From the perspective of strength, the Giant Axe Chaos Monument is the strongest. After all, its creator is the founder of the Giant Axe Martial Arts Arena. The founder of the Giant Axe is the second strongest human in the universe. The second is the Chaos Monument, which follows the most difficult laws of time and space. Its creator is the strongest human, and also the disciple of the strongest human in the Primordial Universe and even the Universe Sea. He is also the controller of the Virtual Universe Company, the Initial Universe and Chaos City, and the third strongest human, the Chaos City Lord."
Luo Feng asked with concern, "Is the Chaos City Lord also the strongest being in the universe?"
Zhou Tong shook his head slightly: "Not yet, just at the peak of the Universe Lord. Perhaps in ten million years, he will become the third strongest being in the universe among the human race."
How did you know?
Meeting the surprised looks of Luo Feng and the other two, Zhou Tong smiled slightly: "You'll know when you get to Chaos City."
"Tch!" X3
After leaving the virtual universe, Zhou Tong did not continue cultivating, but instead relaxed for a few days.
At the same time, they are also waiting in line to comprehend the Chaos Monument of the Universe.
He had already seen two of the three treasures of Chaos City, and he was determined to see them all in person.
As the junior brother of the Lord of Chaos City, Zhou Tong has no limit on the number of times he can study the Chaos Stele, but he must abide by the restriction of 7 days for each study session and wait in line.
When the time came for Zhou Tong to comprehend the truth, he went to the city lord's mansion, familiar with the place.
Before the massive bronze door of the comprehension chamber of the Cosmic Chaos Monument.
"Lord Candry!"
An old man with a vertical eye between his brows gave Zhou Tong a deep look. He had already received a notification from the Lord of Chaos City that Zhou Tong could study the Chaos Stele an unlimited number of times, with all other rules remaining the same.
"Go in! I'll let you know in seven days."
Upon entering the secret chamber, Zhou Tong immediately noticed a colossal stele, hundreds of meters long and wide.
Let's take a closer look.
The first image: an empty nine-square grid, seemingly flat yet three-dimensional, appearing to have only nine squares but actually seemingly endless.
The second image shows a 36-sided Rubik's Cube transformed from a 3x3 grid, which is constantly changing.
The third image shows a blocky world with 108 different types of blocks that are constantly being combined.
The fourth picture: a long river that flows continuously from beginning to end.
The fifth picture shows the flowing river now exhibiting more changes and states: eddies, reverse currents, and calm.
The sixth picture shows the river beginning its cycle, with even more changes and states, just like a real river.
The seventh picture is a picture of all things, including flowers, trees, mountains, rocks, and rivers.
The eighth picture: The picture of all things has more creatures in various states, including animals, humans, and special life forms, and they are in different states, such as infants, adults, and the elderly.
The ninth image: All things are transformed into a living world of beings, just like a real world.
