Becoming the Lord God from Devouring

"Is he Wu Hao?"

"The lord of the Primal Secret Realm?"

"It is rumored that he is the most powerful genius in the recent trillion-era?"

"Is that person even more talented than Coty and Venerable Fiery Erosion? I heard he's already conquered the Domain Lord-level Tongtian Mountain!"

"Hehe, isn't it normal for a genius at the trillion-epoch level to pass through the Tongtian Mountain at the domain lord level? He is a domain lord, so it's not surprising that he can pass through the Tongtian Mountain at the world lord level."

"How could it be so strong!"

Along the streets, one could often hear immortal deities whispering among themselves. Clearly, Wu Hao had indeed become the most famous genius in Chaos City recently, and it was safe to say that almost everyone in the world knew him.

Wu Hao had just finished comprehending the Dark Chaos Stele and had no interest in paying attention to the praise from others. He only wanted to integrate what he had learned from this comprehension as soon as possible.

Suddenly, on his way back, a figure completely shrouded in a black robe blocked his way; it was a resident receptionist from Chaos City.

"Wu Hao, the city lord requests your presence. Please go there!"

"The Lord of Chaos invited me?" He was slightly taken aback, then immediately put aside his comprehension of the Dark Chaos Stele and walked straight towards the direction of the Lord's Mansion.

The gates of the Chaos City Lord's Mansion remained open. Wu Hao had just returned from his comprehension there. Previously, he would visit the City Lord's Mansion to study the Chaos Stele, but this time he went directly to pay his respects to the 'Chaos City Lord'.

After entering the city lord's mansion, he ventured deeper into the innermost part of the mansion, heading towards the most heavily guarded inner quarters.

At the entrance of the city lord's inner palace, two immortal-level guards stood on either side of the door, looking at him with stern eyes, but without any intention of stopping him.

When a guard saw Wu Hao looking at him, he immediately said, "Wu Hao, the city lord has ordered you to go and pay your respects immediately!"

Wu Hao nodded immediately and then strode towards the inner door.

Upon entering the inner gate, Wu Hao quickly arrived at a plaza paved with chaotic rocks, where a bald man in a fiery red battle robe stood smiling.

He wore a faint smile and appeared exceptionally serene. Just looking at this bald man gave one a sense of boundless tranquility and peace.

The person in front of him must be his senior brother, the disciple of the Chaos City Lord, 'Return to One Venerable'. Wu Hao immediately walked towards the man.

"Wu Hao, I am Venerable Guiyi, here to fetch you on my teacher's orders." Venerable Guiyi's face was kind and his smile was quite infectious. "I've heard Venerable Anxing mention you, saying you're a genius of the trillion-epoch level. I was also there when you conquered the seventeenth level of the Heavenly Bridge last time!"

"Wu Hao pays respects to Venerable Guiyi!" Wu Hao immediately bowed respectfully, then said with a smile, "I didn't expect that you were there at the time. I made a fool of myself. Please forgive me!"

"Haha!" Venerable Guiyi smiled and then said, "Not ugly at all, on the contrary, you performed very well and amazed us all!"

After saying this, Venerable Guiyi stopped teasing Wu Hao: "Come on, follow me!"

"Yes!" Wu Hao immediately followed respectfully to the side.

Venerable Guiyi led Wu Hao through the inner courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion. As they walked, he smiled and chatted with Wu Hao: "I am quite familiar with Dark Star. He received several favors from me when he was the Realm Lord. If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to me for help."

"Okay!" Wu Hao nodded immediately. He would never take Venerable Guiyi's words seriously. Favors are the hardest to repay. If you ask for help casually when you are weak, what will you do when the other party asks for your help after you have become strong?
When you're weak, your problems are easily solved for him, but when he's strong, his difficulties can be fatal. Unless absolutely necessary, you should never ask for favors from him casually.

“Well, since you are the disciple of your master, the Lord of Darkness, you don’t need to call me Venerable Guiyi anymore. Just call me Senior Brother Guiyi!” Venerable Guiyi laughed. “Dark Star used to call me that too. In the blink of an eye, he has become a Venerable. In just a few years, he may even surpass me.”

"How is that possible!" Wu Hao immediately shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Dark Star is always neglecting his duties. He's still a trillion epochs away from surpassing Senior Brother Guiyi."

"Hahaha!" Venerable Guiyi seemed to be amused by Wu Hao, his face beaming with joy. Seeing that they were almost inside the City Lord's Mansion, he quickly became serious and said, "My teacher has three avatars. The one who presides over Chaos City is the one who is in charge of killing and conquest, so you must be respectful and not offend him."

"Yes." Wu Hao already knew the reason, and immediately nodded to show that he understood.

The two walked to a quiet courtyard. Outside the courtyard was a stone tablet with the three characters "Chaos Tablet" on it.

"The teacher is inside," Venerable Guiyi said, leading Wu Hao inside.

Boom~
Before the time-space twist, he was still in the city lord's mansion, but after Wu Hao stepped into the courtyard, he entered a vast and desolate world.

As far as the eye can see, the endless land is filled with countless corpses, some as large as planets, others as large as a land of dwarves.

Each corpse exudes a chilling aura, and even the worst ones are the corpses of cosmic lords.

Wu Hao and Venerable Guiyi were walking on this seemingly endless land when they suddenly heard Venerable Guiyi call out, "Teacher."

"Huh?" Wu Hao was shocked to discover that a tall, burly man, three meters tall, was standing in the distance, looking exactly like the one in the virtual universe.

He wore an incredibly complex and ancient dark red battle armor and boots, while a scaled tail emerged from his battle skirt.

When Wu Hao's gaze fell upon this person, he felt his soul tremble, as if he were seeing the endless laws of the universe.

The magnificent and vast laws of the universe constantly exuded a murderous aura, making Wu Hao feel as if he were a lone boat bobbing up and down on the ocean, about to be capsized by the currents at any moment, and he didn't even dare to have the thought of resisting.

"This is too powerful. Is this the true form of the Lord of the Universe?"

"Wu Hao!" A very ordinary voice rang out, and all the strange phenomena disappeared. The Chaos City Lord turned around and looked at Wu Hao calmly.

Wu Hao looked up at the man in dark red armor with a neighbor's tail.

He had two fiery red horns on his forehead and strange, mysterious markings on his face, making him look quite fierce. However, his eyes were as calm as a vast ocean or an endless starry sky, bringing a sense of tranquility to those around him. "Wu Hao greets the City Lord!" Wu Hao then realized that he needed to bow to him.

The body of the Lord of the Universe is a manifestation of the laws of the universe. Every move he makes carries the authority of the laws. Directly observing the other's body is far more effective than looking at any Chaos Stele.

So this is one of the most powerful forces in this universe, the true powerhouse standing at the pinnacle.

"Wu Hao, compared to your master, I actually met you formally before him!" The Chaos City Lord smiled as he looked at Wu Hao.

Wu Hao nodded. The Lord of Darkness spends most of his time wandering the cosmic sea and rarely returns to the initial universe, so it is indeed very difficult to meet him.

“However, your master cares about you very much and specially sent someone to bring you a gift, which I will personally deliver to you!” The Chaos City Lord said, taking out a long sword of the same black color from his bosom. “This is a precious treasure bestowed upon you by your master, named ‘Void Clarity’.”

After the Lord of Chaos finished speaking, the Void Sword instantly left his hand and flew straight towards Wu Hao.

The longsword seemed to possess its own consciousness, as if it had seen a kindred spirit, and flew rapidly towards Wu Hao's hand.

The moment it touched Wu Hao's hands, the entire longsword instantly changed from jet black to a translucent, off-white color, and at the same time, a sense of joy emanated from its blade.

It was as if a lost dog, after years of wandering, had suddenly seen its long-lost owner with great enthusiasm.

"It seems you two are a perfect match!" the Chaos City Lord commented. "This sword was used by the Dark Ones when he was struggling. Now that it has been passed on to you, it has found a good master. I hope you will not let this precious sword become tarnished."

"Disciple will remember this and will never let Master's gift go to waste. This sword will follow me and will surely drink the blood of foreign races!" Wu Hao stroked the sword as gently as if he were caressing a long-lost lover.

"This sword comes with a matching secret technique called 'Ming Kong Mie,' which was created by Darkness during the time of the Universe Venerable. I'll give it to you as well!" The Chaos City Lord then tossed another book to Wu Hao, his smile undiminished.

After receiving the secret technique, Wu Hao thanked the Lord of Chaos City once again. Then he suddenly realized that Venerable Guiyi had disappeared from his side, leaving only the Lord of Chaos City and himself behind.

He looked up, not understanding what the Lord of Chaos City wanted to do.

"Wu Hao, I have a question for you!" The Chaos City Lord's words instantly alerted Wu Hao, who didn't understand what the Chaos City Lord wanted to do.

"Was your Golden Horned Beast clone copied from Luo Feng?"

"What? So I didn't hide it from him!" Wu Hao was instantly shocked. When he first came to Chaos City, his Golden Horned Beast clone had not yet hatched. He didn't expect that the Lord of Chaos City would still see through it.

"Don't be nervous. I already saw it when you first came to Chaos City. Later, combined with Luo Feng's possession of the Golden Horned Beast, I understood the cause and effect between the two of you," Chaos said unhurriedly. "You let Luo Feng possess the Golden Horned Beast, while you copied the Golden Horned Beast's bloodline and became your clone. The appearances of the two Golden Horned Beast clones are almost identical! I just can't understand where you obtained the secret technique for creating clones!"

"Me!" Wu Hao was speechless. His lineage was impossible to investigate in detail, and a thorough investigation would definitely expose certain things.

But who is the Lord of Chaos City? As the actual decision-maker of the human race, he is the one who would not bother to investigate the secrets of a little guy.

"Don't be nervous. Although clone-type secret techniques are precious, they are only for realm lords. Once you become an immortal, your divine body and soul will merge, and you will no longer be able to obtain clones." The Chaos City Lord's words immediately put Wu Hao at ease. "However, the fact that you have two primordial cores is quite unexpected!"

Wu Hao: "!!!"

"Do your two primordial cores affect each other?" Seeing Wu Hao's shocked expression, the Chaos City Lord continued, seemingly unconcerned. "If one primordial core shatters, can the other still survive? Or, if one of your primordial cores shatters, can the other primordial core be revived?"

“The two primordial cores are independent of each other. If one shatters, as long as the other doesn’t die, it can be reassembled!” Wu Hao immediately told the truth, which instantly drew even more astonishment from the Lord of Chaos City.

"No wonder your talent is so high. Even an ordinary Universe Lord wouldn't be as fortunate as you." The Chaos City Lord's next words made Wu Hao feel flattered. "If you had a top-tier soul-type treasure to suppress your soul, wouldn't you be able to reliably become a Universe Lord or even stronger with your talent?"

“This disciple dares not!” Wu Hao immediately refused. “This disciple has already owed the clan too much, and dares not ask for such a precious treasure. I am already content with the sword bestowed upon me by my master.”

"Hahaha!" The Chaos City Lord shook his head and said, "I was just talking about a possibility. Our entire human race doesn't even have many soul-type treasures, so of course it's impossible for me to bestow them upon you. Besides, you can't protect these things at your current stage!"

Wu Hao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"How many clones have you condensed now?" the Chaos City Lord asked.

“Three!” Wu Hao said confidently. “My own primordial core has no genetic limitations when it comes to creating clones. As long as it is a living being, it can be used as material for me to create clones. I created the Golden Horned Beast with the first one, and I still have two more available!”

"After the Golden Horned Beast became an avatar, I gained the ability to create three more avatars. I created one of them, the Zerg Queen avatar, and I still have two slots available!"

"Are there four slots left?" The Chaos City Lord fell into deep thought.

Wu Hao's heart skipped a beat when he saw the appearance of the Chaos City Lord.

In the original story, the Lord of Chaos City also asked Luo Feng about it, but only after hearing that Luo Feng only had one clone slot left did he explain the rules of the cosmic clone to Luo Feng.

Are you asking Wu Hao this now because you want him to use his clone ability to sacrifice for the clan?
"Wu Hao, I have an exceptional bloodline here, and I wish to take one of your unrestricted clone slots. I wonder if you are willing to make a sacrifice for the sake of your clan?"

As soon as the Lord of Chaos finished speaking, Wu Hao's heart skipped a beat. Just as he had thought, the Lord of Chaos was about to take up a clone slot.

However, a glimmer of hope arose in his heart: what if this clone was a massive divine body clone like Youhai's?

If it were Youhai himself, taking up one of his clone slots wouldn't be considered a loss; on the contrary, it would be a great gain.

Wu Hao pretended to be reluctant, then gritted his teeth and said, "As long as the bloodline is strong enough, I'm willing to make some sacrifices for the clan. Anyway, I still have four clone slots!"

"Hahaha, good!" The Chaos City Lord immediately spoke again, "Don't worry, this bloodline will definitely exceed your expectations. As long as you can successfully condense it, the human race will definitely do its utmost to nurture you!" (End of this chapter)
