Meeting the Master of False Gold

Chaos City is a colossal city that stands majestically deep within the primordial universe. It stands there, seemingly at the very center of the primordial universe, where the rules of the entire universe come alive.

Compared to the technologically advanced mega-cities within human territory, Chaos City appears ancient and simple. It seems to exist only in the past, a vast and ancient city, weathered and profound.

"Rumble~~"

The Wanluan Palace pierced through the universe with a long, resounding sound, and came to a stop before the magnificent city gate of Chaos City, unimpeded.

"brush!"

The cabin door of the flying boat opened, and Venerable Luanmo strode to the front, with Li Che behind him. Further back were the young geniuses who had joined this year's Peak Genius Battle. They had all advanced to the Universe level and were now curiously observing the surrounding space-time.

As the group arrived at the grand gate of the majestic Chaos City, two extraordinary powerful figures stood there. One of them was an ordinary human dressed in a black robe, while the other was a white-haired werewolf. The two had clearly been waiting for Venerable Luanmo and his party for quite some time.

"Guide, I'm entrusting these youngsters of this year's Genius Battle to you. Show them around and let them get acquainted with the environment," Venerable Luanmo said, looking at the immortal deity shrouded in black robes.

"Yes, Venerable Luanmo," the guide said with a slight bow.

Li Che raised an eyebrow and unconsciously looked at the guide. The other party seemed inconspicuous, but was actually very strong. If he was willing to join the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, the Qianwu Kingdom ruler would probably be very willing to grant him a marquis title and expand his team of three hundred marquises.

Immediately, Venerable Luanmo looked at another immortal deity beside the guide, whose aura was clearly even more profound, and after a brief silence, he spoke:

"As for you... I remember you are a disciple of the Fire Erosion Sect."

Upon hearing this, the immortal deity resembling a white-haired werewolf grinned and bowed slightly to Venerable Luan Mo:

"Respected Venerable Luanmo, I am Yongbo Wang, the third disciple of Venerable Shihuo. I have come to receive Realm Lord Li Che on the orders of my master."

Upon hearing this, Li Che couldn't help but take another look at the werewolf immortal god.

Li Che had never heard of the name of the Eternal King of the Giant Axe Arena, but he had heard of his teacher, Venerable Fire Erosion, both before and after his transmigration.

He was once a genius, a once-in-ten-millions-of-epochs genius, a disciple of the Lord of Void Gold, and also had a dim-witted son…

This was all of Li Che's impressions of Venerable Fiery Erosion.

"Greetings to King Yongbo."

Despite his inner turmoil, Li Che remained respectful and bowed slightly to Prince Yongbo.

But King Yongbo did not accept it.

The two stood side by side, watching as Venerable Luanmo's figure vanished in an instant. Only then did the werewolf immortal god look at Li Che and smile:

"Let's go, I'll take you for a tour inside Chaos City first."

As soon as he finished speaking, King Yongbo separated a strand of immortal divine power to envelop Li Che, and then the two of them transformed into a silver-white stream of light and sped towards the interior of Chaos City.

Chaos City is vast. As one of the most mysterious cities in human history, its spacetime volume is never a fixed number, but rather changes slowly with the regular fluctuations of the initial universe, similar to the tides.

King Yongbo led Li Che through the city and arrived at a simple building deep within Chaos City. He casually opened the door and then led him to the rooftop of the building.

"This is my permanent residence in Chaos City. You can find an uninhabited small building on the outskirts of Chaos City. You can come and find me anytime if you have any questions."

Prince Yongbo sat down on a recliner on the rooftop and gestured for Li Tuo to feel free to look around.

"Permanent residence..."

Li Che nodded and strolled around Yongbo King's simple little building. He discovered many faint claw marks, teeth marks, and fist marks on the rooftop. Each of them was rich in regular variations. If analyzed in depth, several very good secret techniques could be deciphered.

"Once the Bridge to Heaven is completed to the 18th floor, which is equivalent to reaching the standard of a King-level Immortal God, you will automatically gain permanent residency in Chaos City and a house of your own within this vast Chaos City."

King Yongbo gazed at the ever-collapsed and flowing fundamental laws of the universe in the sky, but he paid no heed. Having permanent residency, he was already accustomed to these rules, and casually remarked...

"If you can reach that level when you come to the Initial Universe this time, you will naturally be able to obtain permanent residency here."

"..."

Li Che nodded silently. He carefully observed the claw marks and engravings on the rooftop and found that they were mostly about his understanding of the fundamental laws of space and water. The water law was naturally useless, but the space law part made Li Che's eyes light up.

"Those are just random sketches I made during my daily meditations. The spatial branch I've fully mastered so far is teleportation, which doesn't seem to align well with your direction," King Yongbo reminded him, seeing Li Che's serious analysis.

As he spoke, this powerful being summoned his intelligent assistant, casually tossing a set of information to Li Che, and said:

"You only need to see these basic information about Chaos City. The important thing is to keep your distance and not offend the powerful figures who live in seclusion here. Many of them are old guys who have been stuck at their bottlenecks for hundreds of millions of years. They have very bad tempers, so be careful."

Thank you!

Li Che nodded. Having spent 50,000 years in the universe, he understood better than anyone the importance of respecting the strong.

"Regarding your own cultivation, after you have paid your respects to your grandmaster, you can first choose the Chaos Stele that is most suitable for you. It is a treasure left by the greatest beings in the human race and has an important guiding role in cultivation."

As Yongbo Wang recounted, Li Che nodded earnestly. Indeed, the fifty-two Chaos Steles were incredibly important within the clan, left specifically to guide the weak, and possessed extraordinary auxiliary functions in cultivation.

However, Li Che no longer needs the Chaos Stele to help him determine his path of cultivation. His path has already taken shape. The value of the Chaos Stele is more to provide a reference and help him understand his true nature.

"Then, you should challenge the Bridge to Heaven," said the King Wolf of Yongbo, his smile becoming even more ferocious. "I suggest that after you choose the Chaos Stele, you immediately try to cross the Bridge to Heaven. First, figure out your limits so that you can determine the direction of your future efforts."

"Moreover, your opponents on the Sky Bridge will try their best to use the same fighting style as you. They are very strong opponents, and even if you are defeated by them, it will help you confirm many of your ideas..."

"Then, you can try leaving Chaos City to hunt Chaos Beasts. These are monsters born from the primordial universe rules, containing the true spirit of chaos, which is very helpful for the cultivation of the soul..."

King Yongbo explained in detail the things to pay attention to in Chaos City. Although it was only their first meeting, he still seemed very enthusiastic.

It should be noted that this was a high-level King-level expert who had passed through the 19th level of the Bridge to Heaven. Normally, he wouldn't need to mention such a trivial matter himself, but King Yongbo valued Li Che, a genius who could potentially become his junior uncle, and was willing to waste this little bit of his time.

After a long while, King Yongbo finally stopped talking. He raised a hand, took out a bottle of fine wine from the wine cabinet behind him, poured a glass for himself and Li Che respectively, and smiled:

"That's about it. Is there anything else you don't understand?"

"No more for now, thank you, sir," Li Che said, shaking his head.

"Hahaha! Very good, come on, I'll take you to my grandmaster's residence right now!"

King Yongbo smiled, downed the fine wine in his cup in one gulp, grabbed Li Che, and leaped down from the small building in Chaos City, speeding towards the deeper parts of Chaos City.
