Venerable Jiufeng's Reflections

Even Li Che himself was unaware that his challenge to the 18th floor of the Sky Bridge had attracted the attention of more than one of the higher-ups at the Giant Axe Arena.

"rumble!"

On the day Li Che challenged the 18th level of the Heavenly Bridge, a vast void outside Chaos City suddenly trembled violently, and a majestic palace surrounded by boundless waves broke through the wormhole and descended into the primordial universe.

The great being in the palace was clearly not visiting the initial universe for the first time. Without pausing, he teleported away in a few moments and disappeared into an ancient mansion deep within the Chaos City.

Even though his appearance was only brief, it still attracted the attention of many ancient beings, because the master of the magnificent palace was extremely famous within the human race and was one of the key figures of the Void Gold lineage of the Giant Axe Arena.

As a cosmic overlord, he commands an ancient cosmic secret realm called "Lu Hai" and possesses the supreme treasure, the Lu Hai Divine Armor. His combat power is among the strongest of all cosmic overlords.

Lord Luhai's special trip to the Initial Universe was naturally for Li Che.

After all, he was the instructor appointed by the Lord of False Gold. Today, his junior brother Li Che was going to hand in his answer sheet to his teacher, and even the Lord of Luhai had to take it seriously.

However, when Lord Liuhai arrived at the residence of the Void Gold Lord of the Initial Universe, he discovered that there was more than one powerful aura in that majestic mansion.

The most revered of them all is, of course, the golden-haired, golden-browed figure on the supreme throne. He is the teacher of the Lord of Longhai, the number two figure in the Giant Axe Arena, and the fourth-order universe master—the Lord of Void Gold.

The other was a lithe werewolf clad in purple armor, his body covered in blue wolf fur, and his dark green eyes looked sharp and deep.

The Lord of Luhai recognized the cosmic venerable one in the form of a werewolf.

The other party is also one of the few cosmic overlords among the human race, and is also a representative figure of the human race stationed in the Ancestral God Cult. His status among the cosmic overlords is also very special.

Candidate for Divine General – Venerable Jiufeng!

"Greetings, teacher! What brings you here, Jiufeng!"

Even the ancient and powerful Lord of Luhai was slightly taken aback when he saw the appearance of the two.

Both being cosmic overlords with comparable combat prowess, Lord Liuhai understood that his overall status within the human race was actually slightly lower than that of Venerable Jiufeng.

The reason is simple: as countless years have passed, the Lord of the Longhai Sea has never had any hope of becoming a top cosmic overlord or cosmic master.

As for Venerable Jiufeng, he is a candidate for God General of the Ancestral God Sect. As long as the current God General above him dies, Venerable Jiufeng has a high probability of becoming a formal God General. At that time, his combat power will directly reach the level of a top universe overlord.

Moreover, officially recognized deities have more means to give back to their people.

"Lu Hai is here, have a seat!"

The Lord of Void Gold did not show any surprise at the arrival of Lord Lu Hai. He simply gestured for Lord Lu Hai to sit down, and then shifted his gaze to the top of a huge virtual screen in front of him.

What's playing on it is naturally the scene of Li Che breaking through the 18th floor of the Sky Bridge.

In the scene, Li Che is not wearing any armor, but is covered in a long, dark robe that is as deep as a black hole. He stands tall and holds a black spear. His eyes are bright and seem to be devouring all the light around him.

Opposite him, his opponent was fully armed, clad in Flame Crystal Armor, looking like a ferocious beast that roamed the universe.

The two sides did not communicate at all, but simply stared at each other. The next moment, the spearhead collided with the giant claw of the Flame Crystal Armor.

"boom!"

The clash of the two weapons represents the collision of two completely different laws. The power of spatial strangulation tears everything apart, creating a huge rift in the void above the Tongtian Bridge.

If this level of confrontation were to take place in the primordial universe, the aftershocks alone would easily shatter a star.

However, inside the giant hall, the Lord of Void Gold, Venerable Jiufeng, and Lord of Luhai did not show any signs of shock, but simply nodded slightly.

From their vantage point, a fight on the mere 18th floor of the Sky Bridge was no different from a children's brawl; all the secrets could be seen at a glance.

"In the five hundred years since the beginning of the universe, he created his own top-level secret technique and his understanding of the laws has reached the level of a king. Congratulations, Lord of Void Gold, this is an excellent disciple!" Suddenly, Venerable Jiufeng, who looked like a werewolf, sighed and congratulated the Lord of Void Gold above the throne.

But the Lord of Luhai could hear a hint of regret and helplessness in the voice of this ancient cosmic overlord of the human race.

This is actually perfectly understandable.

After all, Lord Liuhai knew very well that if the Lord of Void Gold hadn't taken him as a disciple, Li Che would most likely have become Venerable Jiufeng's disciple.

"Hahaha! He's truly outstanding. I have high hopes for him, and I even think he could become the next Fiery Erosion and Coty for our human race!"

On the throne, the Lord of Void Gold also revealed a smile. At the age of 50,000, he passed through the 18th level of the Bridge to Heaven. This great being clearly believed that Li Che had the hope of passing through the 20th level of the Bridge to Heaven during his time as a Realm Lord.

"Such a genius can only go further under the tutelage of a great being like you!" Venerable Jiufeng bowed deeply and said with a wry smile.

He was well aware that he, a mere cosmic overlord, could not possibly compete with the great cosmic master for a disciple, and that Li Che would indeed be able to avoid many detours under the tutelage of the Void Gold Master.

But this cosmic overlord hesitated slightly, then took out a crystal that shimmered with a jet-black divine light from his robes and said in a low voice:

"My original plan was to have him learn the Ultimate Light Secret Technique for a while before receiving the inheritance of the Black Light God General. Even now, I still believe that is the most suitable inheritance for him."

"There are still more than 5,000 years until the next opening of the Blacklight God General's inheritance site in the Primordial Universe. I made arrangements within the clan a long time ago. With this token, he can go to the Blacklight inheritance site in the Glory Secret Realm and try to receive the Blacklight God General's inheritance."

This scene surprised even the Lord of Luhai.

It seems that Venerable Jiufeng really thinks highly of his junior brother, and has even helped plan the corresponding divine general inheritance.

"Alright, keep this token. I will also give you some personal compensation," the Lord of Void Gold said, staring at the token of inheritance for a moment before nodding slightly.

It must be admitted that the inheritance of divine powers is indeed a good thing.

If one can receive the complete inheritance of the Black Light God General, it is equivalent to Li Che mastering a set of body amplitude secret techniques on the spot. His basic strength will be increased by another 100 times on top of the original 100 times peak strength of the World Lord, reaching the theoretical limit level of the original universe.

Within human races, there are many powerful individuals at the King and Venerable levels who have received the inheritance of divine generals.

The Lord of False Gold didn't mind securing this inheritance for Li Che.

After all, a single spot for the inheritance of a divine general is worth at most a few hundred billion points or primordial units, which is nothing in front of the great cosmic masters and cosmic overlords.

While the three powerful beings from the human race were chatting, Li Che, who was breaking through on the Bridge to Heaven, had already unleashed his power. In just a few dozen moves, he suppressed his opponent on the 18th floor with his self-created secret technique, which had undergone countless transformations. His jet-black spear swept across the sky, easily shattering his opponent's head even through the Flame Crystal Armor.

Passed the 18th level of the Skybridge!

As Venerable Jiufeng watched this scene, the regret in his dark green wolf eyes deepened as he thought about how he had missed out on such an outstanding disciple.

Originally, he thought that if Li Che could not pass the trial of the Lord of Void Gold's personal disciple, he would personally take Li Che as his disciple, but now it seems that there is little hope.

As a member of the human race, he knew very well that a genius like Li Che could only rise to prominence at a faster pace under the protection and nurturing of the great cosmic rulers.

"In that case, I will not bother the Lord of Void Gold any longer."

He bowed to the Lord of False Gold once more, then left the Initial Universe Mansion, took out the Treasure Palace, and quickly departed from the Initial Universe.
