Chapter 264 The Chaos City Lord Who Can't Enter the Gate
In the virtual universe, at the very top of the mountain range at the very center of Thunder Island, stands a most luxurious and exquisite palace.
Zhou Ze was teleported into the palace, where a great being with a fierce face but an exceptionally calm gaze sat on the throne before him, clad in dark red battle armor.
This great being is none other than the Lord of Chaos City.
"Senior Chaos!" Zhou Ze bowed respectfully.
"Zhou Ze, how have you been doing during your time away from home?" The Chaos City Lord's eyes always gave people an incomparably peaceful and serene look.
"It's alright, but the missions are coming too slowly. Senior Chaos, am I really going to be sent away for tens of thousands of years like the other domain lords?"
Zhou Ze couldn't help but complain. He had become quite familiar with the Lord of Chaos City, but many universe venerables didn't meet with him as frequently as he did.
"Heh, it hasn't been that long, and you're already impatient?" The Chaos City Lord chuckled. "But thinking about it, it makes sense. From the time you were born until now..."
In such a short period of time, only a few hundred years, and from a mere apprentice to a level comparable to a king, it is truly astonishing.
The Mountain-Sitting Guest truly deserves to be called the most mysterious existence in this cosmic sea.
Not only Zhou Ze now, but also the Yan Emperor of the Yan God Clan who betrayed his clan in the past. Once he became the ruler of the universe, he possessed two supreme treasures, making him an invincible existence in the entire primordial universe.
The betrayal of the Yan God Clan was an extremely heavy blow to him, and even to the entire human race, not only affecting the strength of the Yan Emperor himself.
The overall strength of the Yan God Clan is also extremely terrifying.
This is evident from the fact that once the Yan God Clan split off, it became a powerful race among the billions of races in the universe, second only to the top races.
"Yes, yes, senior Chaos, staying outside the Dream Universe is simply a waste of life. Now that I have broken through to immortality, what I need most is to go to the outer battlefield for real life-and-death experience."
Zhou Ze didn't mince words and directly stated his demands.
The Chaos City Lord chuckled helplessly, "Do you know why our race customizes universe-level cultivation missions, assigns domain lord-level cultivators to external posts, and sends world lord-level cultivators to extra-domain battlefields?"
Zhou Ze pondered for a moment and said, "Let's train them comprehensively. Whether it's Chaos City or a universe-level cultivation mission, it's all about laying a foundation. Sending them out as domain lords is about cultivating their management and problem-solving abilities. You can also see a person's character and personality from the missions, and whether they can be entrusted with important responsibilities, etc."
"As for the realm lord level, it's simply a matter of honing skills."
"The Domain Lord level also involves laying a foundation, which is understandable, since they have spent most of their time in the past tens of thousands of years in relative leisure, with plenty of time to comprehend the laws and various other aspects—"
The Lord of Chaos City showed a hint of surprise: "What you said is indeed true. It seems you know more than I thought."
Zhou Ze smiled and said, "This training process is indeed very systematic, but it's not hard to see the purpose behind it."
The Lord of Chaos sighed softly, "It's not difficult to see things from a detached perspective, but not everyone can understand them when they're in the thick of it."
Zhou Ze said thoughtfully, "I am very clear about my goals and future plans. I'll pass on management; I don't like that. What I pursue is personal power. After all, the most crucial thing for a group is the number and quality of strong individuals."
"As for management, I believe that with such a large population, there must be some outstanding management talents who are as rare as those who appear once in tens of millions of epochs."
"If someone is truly capable, even if their talent and comprehension are insufficient, they can still be entrusted with important tasks."
The Chaos City Lord nodded: "That's true. Our Virtual Universe Company has already been working on this, including discovering business geniuses and management prodigies, and we will attach great importance to them as well."
Zhou Ze understood what the Lord of Chaos City had said; the Lord of Chaos City did indeed manage the human race well and was highly respected by the people.
Luo Feng's wife, Xu Xin, became a princess in the post-apocalyptic secret realm by virtue of her business acumen. Although the post-apocalyptic secret realm may not seem like much, it is only relative.
The geniuses who can join the apocalyptic secret realm are all top talents from various cosmic nations.
The fact that business and management talents can be ranked at a level equivalent to members of the Primordial Secret Realm speaks volumes.
"Yes, only comprehensive development can enhance the foundation of a race. Which human being has ever risen from the weak? Promoting economic development and local governance will lead to a continuous stream of geniuses and strong individuals."
Zhou Ze was thinking rationally.
The Lord of Chaos City did not feel offended by Zhou Ze at all. On the contrary, he was very happy that Zhou Ze had these thoughts, because he could see that Zhou Ze was completely from the perspective of the race, and he kept referring to "we humans", which made him feel very comfortable.
Zhou Ze's current abilities, whether it's his own strength or his extraordinary guidance skills, any one of them alone would make him one of the most important assets of the human race, let alone when combined.
When Zhou Ze breaks through to become a Universe Venerable, or even a Universe Lord, the benefits he will bring to the race will be unimaginable.
This is why the Lord of Chaos City was so "indulgent," even treating Zhou Ze like a friend despite his strength, status, and position.
"Alright, I've been talking to you so much that I almost forgot about the important matter—." The Chaos City Lord's figure disappeared from the throne and appeared in front of Zhou Ze.
"Hmm?" Zhou Zeshan laughed, "As we chatted, we did get a little too deep, haha, senior, please forgive me for overthinking and overstepping my bounds."
"It's alright. One should cultivate oneself and one's clan, manage one's family, govern the state, and bring peace to the world—" The Chaos City Lord said the last sentence in fluent Chinese.
Zhou Ze stared wide-eyed, incredulous.
"What's so strange about that? Ever since you were born, I've been watching over your Earth, right up until you created the 'Mind Cultivation Method'."
"After that, I have been learning about the civilization, language, and customs of your Earthly Chinese civilization," the Chaos City Lord said calmly.
"That would be a great honor for our planet." Zhou Ze couldn't help but feel a little excited.
It is truly an honor to have such a great being as the Lord of Chaos City take the initiative to learn the civilization and language of an indigenous planet.
"Your 'Mental State Cultivation Method' is really hard to master. Even now, I still haven't been able to get the basics down," even the Chaos City Lord couldn't help but complain.
To be accepted as a disciple by the Primordial Ancestor and become one of the most powerful beings among the Lords of the Universe, and a top-three super powerhouse in the Hong Alliance, his talent and comprehension are naturally beyond question.
"(o○)" Zhou Ze had a headache: "This shouldn't be the case. From what I got from my senior, it should be easy to get started."
The Lord of Chaos City spread his hands: "In terms of so-called mental state alone, I believe I should have reached the third level, but I can't sense any mental energy."
Even the lofty state of mind, if not applied to practical matters, will have little effect.
Zhou Ze looked worried. For the time being, even as the founder, he couldn't explain why. He himself was still exploring the aspects of mental strength.
"Senior Chaos, how many of those in the clan who bought my Mind Cultivation Method have actually mastered it?" Zhou Ze asked curiously.
The Chaos City Lord's face hardened: "There's only my teacher, and he's already reached the second level, not far from the third."
The progenitor's innate talent and comprehension were indeed extraordinary; there's no need to elaborate on that.
"What does the original ancestor think?" Zhou Ze asked, puzzled.
"A new system, new power, and it's not just about the application of will." The Chaos City Lord wasn't afraid of Zhou Ze's arrogance, or rather, Zhou Ze himself had too many things to be proud of.
"The teacher said that he hopes we can all learn the 'Mental State Cultivation Method'. Once we get the hang of it, our strength in all aspects will increase dramatically. If we can break through to the second level and use mental power to attack, then even without the most powerful treasures, we will be invincible among our peers."
Even the Lord of Chaos couldn't help but show a hint of eagerness in his eyes. The fact that even the Primordial Ancestor valued it so much and took it so seriously speaks volumes.
There was even something the Lord of Chaos City didn't say: the Primordial Ancestor had said that if he had learned the "Mind Cultivation Method" earlier, his probability of possessing the universe would have greatly increased. And now, if he could reach the third level and, after years of refinement, allow his will to break through, he might be able to escape his predicament in the future.
