Chapter 153 The Chaos City Lord Bestows a Treasure
"I remember the last genius who broke through the Primordial Tongtian Mountain at the World Lord level was named Kodi, who was hailed as a peerless genius that appeared only once in billions of years of human history."
"We paid a heavy price, sacrificing many high-ranking spies, to finally kill Koti completely and prevent him from being resurrected."
"Yu Yi's ability to conquer the Primordial Heavenly Mountain, a realm lord level being, demonstrates that he is an unparalleled genius no less than Kodi. He should be ranked number one on the assassination list."
The Zerg have an assassination list, and those who can be included on the list are all true geniuses.
The assassination list targets not only human geniuses, but also geniuses from other races.
After giving all these instructions, the Zerg Queen immediately contacted her clan and reported the matter concerning Yu Yi.
"After breaking through to the Dao-Severing Realm, my cultivation speed has indeed slowed down. At the current rate, it will probably take another six months or more to break through to the fourth level."
In the six months since returning to Chaos City, Yu Yi has been studying the Chaos Stele every two weeks, but his cultivation has improved very slowly, and he has yet to break through to the fourth level.
This is still within the cultivation environment of Chaos City. If one were to cultivate outside, it would probably be even slower, likely taking at least four or five years to break through a minor realm.
However, it's normal to think about it. In the original story, Shen Yefan also accumulated a lot of experience before finally breaking through to the third level of the Dao, but it took him more than 50 years of cultivation to become a saint.
On average, each of the six minor realms took eight or nine years to cultivate. His speed of breaking through one minor realm per year in Chaos City was already fast enough.
Although one year in Chaos City is equivalent to three years in the outside world, it is still three times faster than Ye Fan's progress, which is due to the enhancements from the Chaos Stele and the Heavenly Bottle.
"Master, during your seclusion, the Lord of Chaos City sent you an email, requesting that you go to the City Lord's Mansion to see him immediately after you emerge from seclusion—"
"understood."
Yu Yi arrived at the City Lord's Mansion with ease and met the legendary Venerable Guiyi in front of the Chaos Ruins. Yu Yi dared not be negligent and quickly stepped forward to pay his respects.
"Junior Yu Yi greets Venerable Guiyi—"
Venerable Guiyi is the second disciple of the Lord of Chaos City. He possesses the strength of a cosmic overlord and holds a top position among cosmic overlords.
If the Lord of the Universe is comparable to an Emperor, and the Top Universe Overlord is comparable to an unorthodox Daoist, then the Universe Overlord is comparable to a Quasi-Emperor.
The key point is that Venerable Guiyi is a disciple of the Lord of Chaos City. Their master-disciple relationship in the Devouring Universe is very strong, even surpassing the blood relationship.
For example, which of the universe's supreme beings hasn't lived for trillions of years? No matter how capable a supreme being is, even if they can allow their loved ones to live for millions of years, they will eventually die one day.
As close relatives die one after another, their descendants, separated by countless generations, may only meet a few times before passing away from old age.
How can such a weak blood relationship compare to the master-disciple relationship? The master-disciple relationship is very close, and the disciple can become the master's assistant when he grows up.
In fact, it's not uncommon for some apprentices to surpass their teachers and even give back to them.
"You must be Yu Yi? Come in! Your teacher is waiting for you inside, don't keep him waiting."
The Venerable Guiyi's attitude seemed very polite, but there was a hint of distance and a slightly condescending air about him.
Yu Yi's expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of abnormality. This was quite normal; a genius is ultimately just a genius, and before they mature, they are nothing.
To earn the respect of the strong, being a genius is not enough; only when you possess great strength can you truly win the respect of others.
Led by Venerable Guiyi, Yu Yi arrived once again at the quiet courtyard. Outside the courtyard stood a stone tablet with the three characters "Chaos Ruins" engraved on it.
"Junior Yu Yi greets the City Lord—"
This was the third time Yu Yi had seen the Lord of Chaos City, but this was only one of the Lord of Chaos City's three avatars; he had not yet seen the Lord of Chaos City's true form.
"Yu Yi!"
Looking at the little guy in front of him, the Lord of Chaos City felt a mix of surprise, unexpected joy, and anticipation.
He remembered that when he first met Yu Yi, Yu Yi's strength was only comparable to the cosmic level.
It's only been a few years, and Yu Yi has already broken through to the Dao-Slaying stage, with strength comparable to a World Lord. This cultivation speed has even left the Chaos City Lord somewhat unable to react.
Yu Yi's ability to overcome the Tongtian Mountain, a realm master level, demonstrates that his strength is among the top of realm masters.
"I called you here today to tell you something: news of your breakthrough through the Primal Tongtian Mountain, a realm lord-level realm, has been leaked, and the alien races have put you on their assassination list—"
There are spies among the alien races and among the human races. The Chaos City Lord learned about Yu Yi's appearance on the assassination list not long after he was listed.
"You are in great danger right now. The alien race will stop at nothing to assassinate you. You must be extra careful from now on—"
"This junior understands—"
Yu Yi had long been mentally prepared. He knew that if the fact that he had broken through the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a realm master level, was exposed, it would definitely attract assassination attempts from alien races.
In the past, Yu Yi might have been worried, but after the Yin-Yang Mirror absorbed the power of the Dao Fruit and gained the characteristic of immortality, its safety was greatly improved.
Unless the power exceeds the Dao Fruit level, it's impossible to truly kill him; and unless he's instantly enslaved by his soul, there shouldn't be a major problem.
"This is a top-tier treasure called the Soul-Suppressing Pearl, a powerful artifact for soul defense. I acquired it many years ago, and I bestow it upon you for protection!"
"Unless the Lord of the Universe intervenes, with the Soul-Suppressing Pearl present, even if you encounter an invincible enemy, you'll at least have a chance to calmly self-destruct."
"Thank you for the treasure, City Lord!"
Yu Yi couldn't help but show a look of joy. Top-tier treasures are precious in themselves, let alone a soul defense treasure.
With the Soul-Suppressing Pearl, unless attacked from the outer reaches of the universe, it would be difficult for others to enslave his soul.
While the universe can be devoured, death can be resurrected, but if one is enslaved by a soul, there is truly no solution.
"Cultivate diligently! Strive to break through to the Great Emperor realm as soon as possible. I look forward to your performance. Go!"
"This junior takes his leave."
Looking at the little guy in front of him, compared to the long lifespan and supreme strength of the Chaos City Lord, the little guy in front of him was indeed still very weak and immature.
However, the talent and potential that Yu Yi displayed were something that the Chaos City Lord had only seen once in billions of years.
"Teacher, do you really think so highly of this little fellow? You actually bestowed upon him a top-tier treasure—"
"If he can attain the Dao and become an Emperor, then the human race will have a new path of cultivation to follow. The key is that his physique is very special —"
Emerging from the Chaos Ruins, Yu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he always felt considerable psychological pressure whenever he saw the Lord of Chaos City.
Putting everything else aside, the terrifying sense of oppression emanating from the Lord of Chaos City, whether intentionally or unintentionally, makes people feel uneasy.
