Chapter 89 The Cosmic Venerable is Within Reach!
The Nine Swords Venerable sighed.
"Becoming a Cosmic Venerable is not something that's easy to achieve!!"
The difference between being crowned an invincible and immortal king and being a cosmic venerable may seem to be only a fine line, but the gap between them is still very large!
Even the strongest king is merely immortal, while a venerable one is preceded by the title "universe".
Yu refers to space.
The universe is time.
One must master either one to become a respected person.
The Supreme Being of the Universe represents complete mastery of a universal law.
Immortality is merely mastering the branches of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, or lightning, wind, and light.
The process of merging from a branch vein into the main vein of space is certainly not easy.
Lin Yi nodded, indicating his understanding.
Humanity itself has hundreds of thousands who are enfeoffed as kings, millions as marquises, and billions as immortals.
Even after billions of epochs, only a few thousand people can truly become supreme beings in the universe.
Breakthrough to Cosmic Venerable
difficult!
difficult!
difficult!
The Nine Swords Venerable changed the subject, looking at Lin Yi with a smile and asking...
"Lin Yi, it hasn't been long, and you've already mastered teleportation. I believe you're not far from breaking through to the Universe Venerable realm, are you?"
Nine Swords Venerable sometimes really wondered if Lin Yi was the reincarnation of some powerful being, since his cultivation speed was just too exaggerated.
The three core mysteries of the fundamental laws of space are spatial strangulation, spatial sealing, and spatial teleportation. Teleportation is widely recognized as the most difficult to cultivate, requiring the highest level of understanding of the fundamental laws of space. Generally, one progresses to mastering spatial teleportation after mastering spatial strangulation and spatial sealing.
Of course, the order in which you master these skills will vary depending on your cultivation path.
The ability to master spatial teleportation is a milestone, a significant milestone for a King to break through to the Universe Venerable level. There are quite a few Kings who can do this, but Lin Yi, who has reached this point in just a few decades, is absolutely unique!
Not only among the human race, but even across the entire primordial universe, for countless eons, he had never heard of such a monstrous talent, nor even come close to it!
Lin Yi smiled and nodded, saying without any hesitation, "After some more preparation and accumulation, I will make a breakthrough."
With sufficient cultivation resources and abundant laws and secret techniques, there's no need to suppress one's level and comprehend laws while serving as a realm lord. It's merely to strengthen one's foundation so that the foundation will be more solid after the breakthrough.
The Nine Swords Venerable nodded, sighing, "Any genius pales in comparison to you, Lin Yi!"
Nine Swords Venerable spoke from the heart. He was once the number one in the Genius Battle. After entering the universe and cultivating desperately, he went through countless eras before breaking through to the Universe Venerable. The hardships he endured are beyond what outsiders can understand.
Lin Yi, however, after cultivating for decades, has already gained insights into the laws of the King-level, and it won't be long before he breaks through to the Venerable level.
This made him marvel at Lin Yi's extraordinary talent, and also admire the Chaos City Lord's sharp eye. No wonder the Chaos City Lord had taken the unprecedented step of using special privileges to create the position of Commander of the Personal Guard for Lin Yi.
As the two chatted, suddenly, the Nine Swords Venerable frowned slightly.
"Among the new batch of geniuses in our Virtual Universe Company, Rong Jun, who was taken as a disciple by Yuan Chen, just passed through the fourth level of the Bridge to Heaven."
"That's right. Very few geniuses who come to Chaos City for the first time can pass the fourth level," Lin Yi affirmed.
If the Nine Swords Venerable could receive the message, he could naturally receive it as well.
"Including Rong Jun, three people in this batch have already passed the fourth level of the Heavenly Bridge! Bo Lan, Luo Feng, and Rong Jun." The Nine Swords Venerable revealed a slight smile.
"These three youngsters are all exceptionally talented. It's a pity that Bolan, Luo Feng, and Rong Jun already have apprentices. You won't be recruiting them, will you?!"
Luo Feng became a disciple of the invincible True Yan King, Rong Jun became a disciple of the Universe King Yuan Chen, and Bo Lan also has an immortal teacher.
Lin Yi's criteria for recruiting bodyguards should be those with "clean" identities. It's not that they can't have teachers, but the teachers can only be weak individuals who enlighten or guide them, not strong individuals at the level of kings or cosmic venerables.
This is a consensus among the Nine Swords Venerable and even the entire human elite; otherwise, why would he have rejected all sorts of geniuses recommended to him over the years?
Lin Yi smiled, not denying it, but looking at the Nine Swords Venerable with deep eyes, with a hint of composure and confidence, "Whether someone is a genius or not makes little difference to me. If I want to, even a fool can be cultivated into a monster."
Nine Swords Venerable: ...
He wouldn't believe others saying this, but the Nine Swords Venerable, who possessed the Bodhi Tree and had witnessed Lin Yi's various miraculous methods, deeply believed Lin Yi's words. The Nine Swords Venerable suddenly realized...
"I see. No wonder you look down on those recommended by powerful figures, and no wonder you haven't recruited a single personal guard all these years."
"The more they recommend it, the less you should use it?!"
The Nine Swords Venerable seemed to have discovered the truth.
Lin Yi chuckled, offering no further explanation.
Part of the reason is this: the selection of the personal guards naturally prioritizes loyalty. The people he has cultivated through various means do not want to benefit others. Therefore, the first criterion for selecting the personal guards is a clean identity and loyalty.
More importantly, he was lazy for a while!
He was focused on improving his strength and cultivating, and didn't bother recruiting!
Now that his cultivation has come to a standstill, he can naturally set aside some time to truly build up his personal guard.
"I just received news that Bolan has passed the sixth level!" The usually calm face of the Nine Swords Venerable finally revealed a hint of surprise.
"The sixth level, this Bolan truly lives up to his reputation as a once-in-millennium genius. In all these millennia, not a single newcomer has passed the sixth level!" Lin Yi nodded in agreement.
The Nine Swords Venerable spoke, "In the recent 1000-session Genius Battle organized by the Virtual Universe Company, 4168 people who came to Chaos City for the first time in the past 30 years passed through the third level of the Bridge to Heaven!"
"926 people passed through the fourth floor!"
"32 people made it through the fifth floor!"
"Those who passed the sixth level, none!"
At this point, the Nine Swords Venerable smiled slightly, "This little fellow named Bolan is not bad!"
Clearly, the Nine Swords Venerable was in a good mood. It's no wonder, since he was in charge of this year's Genius Battle, and the geniuses who emerged deserved credit for him. Moreover, if Bolan grows up in the future, he can become his right-hand man.
"only……
"Berlan's 'Cosmic Chaos Monument' involves cultivating both the two fundamental laws of space and time simultaneously. It is arguably the most difficult Chaos Monument to comprehend, and it is easy to get stuck in a bottleneck."
"On the contrary, Luo Feng only used the fourth level of the Divine Weapon to pass the fifth level, demonstrating a solid foundation!"
The Nine Swords Venerable smiled at Lin Yi,
"If I remember correctly, Luo Feng is from your hometown, right?"
"Hmm." Lin Yi nodded. This wasn't a secret; anyone with a keen eye could easily find out with a little investigation.
"For a planet to produce a super prodigy like you is already defying the heavens. I never expected there would be a genius like Luo Feng!" Nine Swords Venerable exclaimed sincerely.
"Um?!"
Lin Yi's face instantly tightened and turned ugly!
