Start from Panlong and kill through the heavens

The primordial universe, the human race.

It may seem that the entire human territory is ruled by the 1008 Universe Kingdom, but in reality, everyone knows that the five giants are the true rulers of the entire human race.

They are Virtual Universe Company, Giant Axe Arena, Cosmic Galaxy Bank, Universe First Bank, and Cosmic Mercenary Alliance.

The vast majority of resources of the entire human race are monopolized by these five giants. If you want to quickly improve your strength and grow into a true powerhouse in the universe, joining these five forces is obviously the best choice.

It's good to have a big tree to lean on for shade; that's exactly the point.

Even a lone wolf like Hu Yanbo, who possessed the strength of a Marquis-level immortal powerhouse, was still killed without warning. If he had joined the five giants earlier, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

Most importantly, these five major forces possess resources.

With enough talent, one can enjoy virtually endless resources. Even with average talent, money can buy what one wants, so one won't be stuck with money that can't be spent.

Rean now feels like he has money but can't spend it. He has attended several auctions in an attempt to buy materials to create clones, but he hasn't been able to find anything suitable for him.

If he were a core member of the five major giants, there wouldn't be anything he couldn't buy.

However, there is now an awkward problem: he cannot find a way to join these five major forces. Joining the outer periphery would be easy, but that would obviously be meaningless. He wants to join the core directly.

Even if it's not the Primordial Secret Realm or the Primordial Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company, just the very last of the Doomsday Secret Realms would be fine, as long as I can enter the Initial Universe and comprehend it once.

However, it is clear that the talent he has shown so far is not enough for the Virtual Universe Company to directly absorb him into the Apocalypse Secret Realm.

His killing field in the virtual universe also demonstrated the power to gain the recognition of the fundamental laws, attracting the attention of the higher-ups of the virtual universe company.

However, the other party only invited him to join their organization and become a high-ranking member of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom branch; they did not intend to invite him to join the Four Great Secret Realms.

Clearly, there are far too many Realm Lords in the Virtual Universe Company who have gained the recognition of the Origin Law. Perhaps Rean is qualified to join the Apocalypse Secret Realm, but there seems to be no spot available at the moment.

"Are you saying that we have to wait until this peak genius battle is over before the spots for joining the Doomsday Secret Realm are determined?" Rean asked, frowning as he looked at the female realm master sent by the Virtual Universe Company.

“Yes.” The female realm lord ‘Green Ivy’ with blue scales between her brows nodded. “If you want to enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, or rather, if you want to go to the Initial Universe to comprehend, you will probably have to wait until this Peak Genius Battle is over before you can submit an application.”

The battle of the ultimate geniuses is still four or five years away from starting, and nearly ten years away from ending.

Ten years is nothing to any realm lord, but Rean didn't want to wait. After a moment's thought, he said, "Miss Green Vine, what if I'm willing to pay a certain fee for this?"

Upon hearing this, Green Ivy's beautiful eyes lit up immediately, and she smiled and said:

“If Mr. Rean is willing to pay 1 unit of Chaos, I am willing to help you try to apply for direct entry into the Apocalypse Secret Realm, but whether it can be done depends on the decision of the higher-ups.”

One Hunyuan unit is almost one-tenth of the wealth of a peak Realm Lord, and it can only be exchanged for an application opportunity.

However, Rean actually breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the other party's words, getting this done was just a matter of how much money was involved. So he asked with a smile, "What if I offer 10 Mixed Yuan Units?"

"10 Mixed Yuan Units?" Green Ivy was slightly taken aback, and her gaze towards Rean softened considerably. She chuckled and said, "Then I must congratulate Mr. Rean in advance on joining the Apocalypse Secret Realm."

"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Green Ivy." Rean transferred the money to her without hesitation. Ten Mixed Yuan Units were a huge sum for an ordinary Realm Lord, but nothing to him.

However, although this matter seems to be resolved with only 10 Mixed Units, theoretically, given Rean's demonstrated talent, he could have joined smoothly even with a normal application, although it might have taken some time.

In other words, these 10 Mixed Yuan Units merely shorten the waiting time by a few years or decades.

It has to be said that this is quite extravagant. No wonder Green Ivy looked at Rean with such fervent eyes when she left. Isn't he a pure and simple benevolent benefactor?

With money paving the way, things progressed exceptionally smoothly, and Rean quickly gained the qualification to enter the Virtual Universe Company's post-apocalyptic secret realm.

Green Ivy personally led him to the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company, and was exceptionally enthusiastic towards him along the way, to the point of offering herself to him. This made the three years that Rean spent traveling to the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company less unbearable.

The spaceship they were traveling in was an F-class ship used by the Virtual Universe Corporation. Its maximum speed in the Dark Universe could reach 50 times the speed of light, which was much better than Rean's machine-type spaceship.

This Green Ivy is no ordinary realm master. She is also a member of the Doomsday Secret Realm, and her teacher is a Marquis Immortal. Although she is only a nominal disciple, she still has considerable power in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Of course, the reason Rean was able to enter the Apocalyptic Secret Realm so quickly was because Green Vine pleaded with her teacher, but it was also because of those 10 Mixed Yuan Units.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and the spaceship carrying Rean, Green Ivy, and the others began to play an electronically synthesized voice.

"Start traveling through the universe and enter the original universe."

“1o……9……8……7……6……5……4……3……2……1！”

Rean felt a slight jolt throughout the spaceship, but after ten seconds everything returned to normal.

Green Ivy shouted, "Exterior simulation 100%!" and a dreamlike starry sky appeared around them. In the distance, there was a vast continent floating in the starry sky.

The universal headquarters of Virtual Universe Corporation has arrived.

“Rean, I must remind you.” Green Ivy sat up from Rean’s embrace, draped a silken robe over her shoulders to conceal her alluring figure, and spoke with a slightly serious tone:
"Although you have joined the core of the Virtual Universe Company, it is only within the Apocalypse Secret Realm. There are tens of millions of people in the entire Apocalypse Secret Realm, most of whom are no worse than you, and many are even stronger than you."

"This is just the apocalyptic secret realm. The most important ones are the first three secret realms. Whether they are members of the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm or the Primordial Secret Realm, they are all true prodigies. As for the members of the Primordial Secret Realm, they are monstrous geniuses in the entire universe!"

Green Ivy sighed, her tone full of longing: "In the eyes of the Virtual Universe Company, we members of the Apocalypse Secret Realm are just ordinary people. The ones who are truly worth cultivating are the members of the top three secret realms."

"This is evident from the fact that members of the Doomsday Secret Realm address members of the three major secret realms as Your Highness."

"Therefore, when you face members of the top three secret realms, you must be respectful to avoid incurring their wrath, or you'll be finished." (End of Chapter)
