Before Leaving

Chapter 96 Before Leaving

"The Lord of Chaos City intervened before—"

A sudden remark poured cold water on the excited group of powerful individuals.

Their various schemes were extinguished.

If this weren't Chaos City, they probably would have already pounced on the three of them, searching their souls and refining their spirits to find that one in a million possibility. Unfortunately—

"They're leaving Chaos City soon, perhaps—"

Such an incredible opportunity—how could these powerful individuals possibly give it up so easily?

"What happened today must not be spread! Anyone who violates this rule will be severely punished for treason!"

A cold, authoritative, and unquestionable voice echoed throughout Chaos City.

As expected, the Lord of Chaos City once again made his decision.

Looking at Zhou Tong, Luo Feng, and Hong, who had been moved away by the Chaos City Lord, a hint of regret flashed across the Nine Swords Venerable's face. He knew that these three geniuses had nothing to do with him anymore.

In reality, it had nothing to do with him anymore, but he just didn't know it.

However, he still has a safety net—

Nine Swords Venerable looked at Bolan with anticipation, then his gaze swept over the remaining nearly nine hundred geniuses.

"I will be here to pick you up from Chaos City in ten days. These ten days are your final sprint. You will hardly be able to come back to Chaos City again for a long time to come, so those who need to comprehend the Chaos Stele should hurry up, and those who need to cross the Heavenly Bridge should do the same..."

After speaking, the Nine Swords Venerable waved his hand to dismiss the group of geniuses.

On the other side, in the City Lord's Mansion, the inner palace.

The secluded courtyard of the Chaos City Lord.

"You all performed very well, beyond my expectations, especially Luo Feng..."

Luo Feng's expression was firm as he respectfully said, "I will continue to work hard and strive to reach the City Lord's standards as soon as possible, so that I can become the City Lord's disciple!"

The Lord of Chaos City laughed, "My conditions remain unchanged. As long as you meet them, I will accept you as my disciple!"

Then the Lord of Chaos City looked at Hong: "The Lord of Void Gold has already sent me a message that he will pick you up and take you to the universe headquarters of the Giant Axe Arena when you leave Chaos City."

Hong Xingli respectfully said, "Thank you for your care and help, Lord City Lord."

Finally, the Lord of Chaos City looked at Zhou Tong, his expression of admiration mixed with a hint of helplessness.

"Junior brother, real-world cultivation is indeed more important, but the assessment in the virtual universe should at least be passable, right? Your Bridge to Heaven is still only on the second level. Does that match your status?"

Zhou Tong said nonchalantly, "If I only focus on crossing the Heavenly Bridge, will I even have time to gain the recognition of the fundamental laws?"

Looking at the marks on Zhou Tong's forehead that acknowledged the origins of the eight lower-level laws, the Lord of Chaos City also felt that the Bridge to Heaven was indeed dispensable for Zhou Tong.

"You can handle the Tongtian Bridge. Now, tell me about your future cultivation plans. Will you continue cultivating in Chaos City, or will you go outside like the others?"

Upon hearing this, both Hong and Luo Feng cast envious glances at Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong shook his head: "Next, I'm going to explore and cultivate in various secret realms. You can't become a strong person just by shutting yourself in and training!"

The Chaos City Lord nodded encouragingly, "I'm relieved that you have this understanding, Junior Brother. There are gifts prepared for you by me, Junior Brothers Darkness and Icebound, in your manor in the Primordial Secret Realm. You'll find them useful when you venture into the Secret Realm."

Zhou Tong was instantly excited and thanked them, "Thank you, Senior Brother Chaos! And please thank Senior Brother Icebound and Senior Brother Darkness for me!"

Speaking of venturing out into the world, Zhou Tong suddenly remembered that he had previously said he would get a legitimate human identity for the Zerg Queen Irina.

"Brother Chaos, you know I have a Zerg Queen servant. How do I legally grant her freedom of movement among humans?"

The Lord of Chaos recalled that when he was investigating Zhou Tong's background information, he saw that his special methods of subduing the Zerg Queen were very different from normal enslavement.

"Your method of subduing the Zerg Queen is also one of the Three Thousand Great Daos?"

Zhou Tong nodded: "That's right. Unlike the conventional method of implanting a soul imprint into the enslaved, the Great Salvation Technique changes her mindset from the root. Normally, she looks no different from a normal Zerg. Even when the Zerg's Universe Lord examines her in person, he can't tell that Irina has been converted and subdued by me."

Over the past thirty years, the Lord of Chaos City has successfully cultivated most of the three thousand Great Daos passed down by Zhou Tong. However, the more he cultivates, the more he feels there is no end to it, and he gains new insights every time. Therefore, he trusts Zhou Tong's words very much.

"Once you arrive at the Primal Secret Realm, I will arrange for your nephew Yuan Yu to handle things and give your Zerg Queen an identity that allows her to move freely with you among the humans."

At this moment, Zhou Tong realized that Irina was still in the Holy Light King's divine kingdom, and he probably wouldn't have time to pick her up before the secret realm training ended.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tong suddenly realized that although the Holy Light King could not leave the Divine Kingdom for the time being, his consciousness should be able to reconnect to the virtual universe as long as it was re-authenticated.

"Brother Chaos, do you know about the Winged Human race's peak-level King-level Immortal Holy Light King?"

The Lord of Chaos City didn't know why Zhou Tong suddenly brought up a titled Immortal King, but he still used his virtual universe access to investigate this person.

"The Holy Light King seems to have fallen?"

Zhou Tong laughed and said, "Before the Genius Battle, I went on an adventure in the universe and accidentally entered a spatial rift. Then I unexpectedly discovered the Holy Light King's divine kingdom and subdued the dying Holy Light King."

The Lord of Chaos City discovered that all the servants his junior brother had taken in were stunning beauties. He also had an ambiguous relationship with a beautiful female genius in the same year in Chaos City. Although he had bought a male slave of the Hengxing level, he had released him long ago.

It's normal for young people to like beautiful women. As long as it doesn't interfere with cultivation, the Chaos City Lord would love for Zhou Tong to leave behind more bloodlines so that his talent and potential can be passed down. It would be even better if they could form a lineage of humans.

So the Lord of Chaos City opened the door to convenience as a sign of encouragement.

"I've granted you access to the virtual universe. From now on, if you're looking for women from other races, you can do it yourself. You don't need to come to me."

Zhou Tong paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Thank you, Senior Brother!"

With a wave of his hand, the Lord of Chaos escorted them back to their respective residences.

After arriving at the back of the house, the group immediately logged into the virtual universe.

They had many things to take care of as they prepared to leave Chaos City.

"Zhou Tong!" "Luo Feng!" "Hong!"

In a public area, at a tavern, the geniuses from their cohort were having a farewell party.

When Ai Chen saw Zhou Tong, the longing she had felt for him after not seeing him for more than ten years turned into an impulse, and she threw herself into Zhou Tong's arms.

"Oh~"

-

Amidst the cheers of the group of geniuses, Zhou Tong caught Ai Chen and pulled her into his arms.

"Remember the teacher Genius Zhan told you about? You'll meet him when you reach the Primordial Secret Realm!"

"Ah!" Aichen exclaimed in surprise, "Is it the Holy Light King you were talking about?"

Zhou Tong smiled and said, "Holy Light King! The laws you cultivate are the same—light and time—and the Holy Light King is capable of breaking through to the peak of the Universe Venerable realm, becoming an immortal."

"Congratulations, Aichen!"

Rong Jun and others who had already become disciples, and Qian Shui and others who had teachers, all sent their blessings!

Uka said enviously, "Aichen becoming the disciple of the Holy Light King is equivalent to becoming the disciple of a cosmic venerable."

Thor added enviously, "Zhou Tong, don't forget your brothers now that you have a girl!"

Luo Feng patted Thor on the shoulder: "Our teacher has always been waiting for us. If we work hard to cultivate and become stronger, we will all become his disciples sooner or later."

The group of geniuses were shocked to hear this. Could it be that Thor had also been chosen by some powerful figure?

Luo Feng's words were ambiguous, but Thor understood them. However, he couldn't speak carelessly before becoming an apprentice, so he changed the subject.

"None of the teachers who give lectures think highly of me unless I can also gain the recognition of the fundamental laws."

Hong encouraged him, "Second brother, if we can do it, you definitely can too!"

The geniuses breathed a sigh of relief, but little did they expect—

Thor confidently declared, "Once I reach the Primordial Secret Realm and break through to the Domain Lord level, I should be able to give it a try!"

The geniuses, whose emotions were in turmoil, clenched their fists instantly.
