Aside from not having as much knowledge about the opposite sex as Lin Hao, he has experienced just as much over the past few hundred years, and his vision and ambition are now vastly different from before.
The expressions of the Nine Swords Venerable, Guiyi Venerable, and others who were listening nearby immediately became incredibly interesting.
Having passed through fifteen layers of the Illusionary Sea at the Domain Lord Realm, he still humbly claims his will is weak?
How many people in the entire history of humankind with such extraordinary talent can there be?
But when their gaze swept over Lin Hao and Thor, and then fell upon Hong, who was attempting the final trial...
He fell silent. Relatively speaking, Luo Feng's words seemed... to make some sense?
As everyone's thoughts raced, the entire Illusionary Sea Plane seemed to be shaken by an invisible force!
Hong, that young man at the Domain Lord level, actually passed the twenty-first island, which was considered the ultimate challenge!
His spiritual realm has already rivaled that of the Venerable One!
……
At the same time, at the highest point of Thunder Island, the most central and supreme deliberation space in the virtual universe.
Five majestic and abyssal projections of will descended upon this place.
In the central area, a dark blue stone table, weathered by time, floats in the surging, endless flow of energy.
The mottled surface of the stone table and the five giant stone seats surrounding it are all engraved with mysterious ancient scenes, silently telling the story of the rise and fall of countless eras.
The Lord of Chaos City sat upright in the main seat, his gaze sweeping over the other four: "You all must have already heard the news. In this Illusionary Sea Trial, three peerless geniuses, including Luo Feng, have emerged as unexpected forces!"
One of the majestic beings, as imposing as a mountain and with a dragon-shaped tailbone, let out a deep laugh: "This is almost shocking! It's truly a rare sight, one that happens only once in countless eons!"
The Lord of Chaos nodded to the being known as the "Lord of Dragons" and the other three, saying, "The reason I invited you all here is precisely for this. They and Lin Hao come from the same cradle of life—Earth."
A figure with a slender and tall build, two pairs of curved horns on his head like sharp sickles, and a third vertical eye embedded between his eyebrows, was none other than the Lord of Youhou.
Clad in dark blue battle armor resembling scales, he exuded a fierce and assertive aura.
His eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "Senior Uncle, could it be... that this is related to that kid Lin Hao again? Is his 'talent' no longer limited to men or women? This is a good thing, but it's still a bit..."
He expressed his shock, a mixture of amazement and slight speechlessness, to the Lord of Chaos City.
Lin Hao's "reputation" is renowned even among the highest decision-makers in the world.
The video he uploaded earlier, showcasing his strength, left all the top figures speechless.
Previously, there might have been some criticism of veteran champions like Long Yu for "willingly degrading themselves," but now there is only pure envy.
If it weren't for concerns about saving face, whether certain prominent families would selectively send their female relatives to seek "opportunities" in the future has become a subtle possibility that is best left unsaid.
The Lord of Chaos City immediately clarified for his disciple: "This really has nothing to do with Lin Hao; the root cause lies with his home planet! The founder of the Giant Axe has personally gone to that life-bearing planet called 'Earth' to investigate..."
He relayed in detail the findings and conclusions of the founder of the Giant Axe to the four people present.
"What?! A planet personally modified by the Mountain Master? Its force field can enhance the soul potential of newborn life? Its value is comparable to a supreme treasure in the peak realm?"
The Lord of Dragons was in turmoil.
The Mountain-Sitting Guest—who among you doesn't know this solitary true god-level being who has existed since the most ancient times of the universe?
"The intelligence was accurate; this news is indeed shocking."
The Lord of Chaos City confirmed.
At this moment, the figure sitting to the left of the Chaos City Lord spoke.
His clothing was extremely simple, consisting of only a large black robe covering his body, beneath which a strange armor made of interwoven dark silver and jet black could be faintly seen.
His head was as smooth as jade, but his skin was covered with strange and intricate black patterns, which seemed to pull the surrounding space and time, spreading a deep and unpredictable dark aura.
"The founder of the Giant Axe also took a liking to Hong? I even plan to take him under my wing. His willpower is extremely compatible with the path I am pursuing."
The bald man, exuding an aura of the abyss, said the Lord of Darkness.
"Junior brother, you've also taken a liking to Hong? Well, you specialize in the Illusionary Realm style, so Hong is indeed suitable for you."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Chaos frowned slightly and looked at the Lord of Darkness.
If other universe lords were to compete, he could try to help his junior brother.
But the opponent is the creator of the giant axe—humanity's only true god!
"Ultimately, this matter must be decided by Hong himself. The decision of whether to accept a disciple also depends on the disciple's wishes."
The Lord of Chaos City shook his head with a hint of helplessness.
"Ah."
Although the Lord of Darkness felt regret, as one of humanity's top cosmic rulers, he did not lose his composure or become anxious.
The Dragon Lord's booming laughter broke the slightly tense atmosphere: "Haha, Chaos! You already have Lin Hao, why not give Luo Feng to me! This little guy is just what I want!"
"How about I give Lin Hao to you? I regret being his teacher now... I admire Luo Feng's character, I can't give him up."
The Lord of Chaos City immediately refused.
The Dragon Lord's smile froze slightly upon hearing this: "Ahem... then so be it. I can't handle that kid Lin Hao..."
He clearly had a deep understanding of some of Lin Hao's "insider information".
At this moment, Lord Youhou turned his gaze to another taciturn attendee—a silver-haired man with slightly graying temples and an ice-sculpted face, wearing an ancient battle armor stained with blood and carrying a simple longsword on his back.
He spoke cautiously, "I think this little guy named Thor is quite good! If you have no objections, then I'll take him as my disciple."
Among the five rulers of the universe, Lord Youhou is the lowest in seniority.
There was no way around it; his teacher, the Lord of Darkness, was the junior brother of the Lord of Chaos City.
Both the Lord of Chaos City and the Lord of Dragon Journey are interested in Luo Feng;
The master, the Lord of Darkness, and the creator of the giant axe are focused on Hong;
Only the "Lord of the Ice Peak" has not yet made a statement.
The Lord of Ice Peak glanced at the Lord of Netherworld and said decisively, "I have no intention of taking on disciples."
This aloof and cold ruler of the universe is not enthusiastic about taking on disciples.
"Then there's the matter of Earth. The rumors about Earth were probably spread by the Zerg, but they stumbled upon the truth. With the lesson of the Flame God Clan as a precedent, we have to be careful."
The Lord of Chaos City said solemnly.
"What's there to discuss? Earth is Lin Hao's home, and Luo Feng is Earth's lord. This Earth naturally belongs to Lin Hao and Luo Feng, and to my Virtual Universe Company! So what if it's a treasure comparable to a peak realm treasure?"
The burly and tall Dragon Lord scoffed.
Including the hidden Lord of the Universe, there are a total of eighteen human beings!
The Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Arena each have five people.
The Cosmic Mercenary Alliance has 3 members, the Cosmic First Bank has 3 members, and the Cosmic Galaxy Bank has 2 Cosmic Lords.
Humanity is divided into several smaller groups, and the virtual universe faction is naturally one of them.
The Lord of Chaos City and the Lord of Ice Peak are among the top tiers of the Lords of the Universe. The Lord of Dragon Journey is not much weaker, and the Lord of Darkness is even more mysterious and unpredictable, comparable to the Lord of Chaos City.
“That’s right! Even if Earth is a supreme treasure of the pinnacle realm, it’s none of anyone else’s business to say anything! Our human race has more than one supreme treasure of the pinnacle realm, and we haven’t seen them share it.”
Lord Youhou also spoke proudly.
The Lord of Chaos looked at the group. Although the Lord of Ice Peak and the Lord of Darkness did not speak, they clearly agreed with the words of the Lord of Dragon Journey and the Lord of Netherworld.
"Yes, that's what I think too! Lin Hao is the one who can truly take charge of the Earth."
A smile appeared on the face of the Chaos City Lord.
In fact, he had already discussed this matter with the founder of the Giant Axe, and now he was also informing the four universe masters within the Virtual Universe Company that they had reached a consensus.
Lin Hao is not Luo Feng from the original timeline.
At that time, although Luo Feng was the ruler of Earth, how strong was he?
A mere domain lord is but a speck of dust in the vast universe.
Having just shown a sliver of talent, and not even having obtained the title of a disciple of the Chaos City Lord, who among those high and mighty figures would care about the rights and interests of a mere Domain Lord?
When the news leaked, ambitious figures like the Undying Venerable and Nightmare Candle King from the Giant Axe Arena arrived one after another, intending to forcibly purchase the Milky Way!
When coercion failed, the Nightmare Candle King went even further and brutally abducted the entire population of Earth into the World Ring, using billions of lives as bargaining chips to force Luo Feng to submit!
His relatives and friends narrowly escaped death!
How arrogant and domineering!
What could Luo Feng have done at that time?
Even with his full strength and maximum burst of power, the regional lord could only reach the level of a novice immortal.
Even when his close friend and master, the third disciple of the True King, the "Bloodthirsty King," came to his aid, the Nightmare Candle King still treated him as nothing!
They even intended to kill Luo Feng on the spot and seize Earth!
Even though he was ultimately spared thanks to the intervention of powerful figures under the Nine Swords Venerable, he was still forced to sign a humiliating treaty.
For a ridiculous price of a mere 500 billion yuan, they "gave up" half of the earth's territory, and that wasn't even paid immediately!
But Lin Hao is different!
Not to mention that he himself has been cultivating for only a short time and yet his strength is comparable to that of a peak-level King!
He can also mass-produce partners with similar understanding of the laws to him!
This is very scary!
What's even more frightening is that nobody knows when this kid will be able to hook up with a female Venerable One, or even a female Universe Master!
Although the human race does not have a female ruler of the universe, the alien races do!
If this kid were to run off to the Zerg now, even the Zerg Queen would welcome him with open arms!
The more people present thought about it, the more frightened they became. This wasn't a realm lord, this was an ancestor!
This is not surprising, as Chaos jokingly said that if Lin Hao were given to Long Xing, Long Xing would not want him.
It is estimated that after this incident, all the human universe lords will now agree that they must not bully this kid and let him run away to the Zerg in a fit of anger.
Only the ignorant and foolish Venerables of the Giant Axe Arena, unaware of the truth, thought of bypassing Lin Hao and forcibly buying Earth from Luo Feng first.
"In that case, I'll inform Lin Hao. How to handle this matter is up to him."
