Man is devouring, waves are traveling through the universe

Chapter 74 Disciple of the Mandate
In the Yuanzhong Palace.

Walking through the quiet corridor, Ye Xingkong followed a young female realm master with a blue mark on her forehead and wearing a black robe to a spacious hall.

"Your Highness Ye Xingkong, this will be your place of cultivation from now on."

The black-robed girl, the realm master, pointed to a grand hall ahead and said with a smile.

"Thank you, sir."

Ye Xingkong nodded and looked ahead, where he saw a grand hall shrouded in white mist.

The entire hall was filled with white mist, making it impossible to see the interior layout from the outside.

"This hall is called the 'Palace of Absolute Heaven,' and it is located on the top floor of the Yuanzhong Palace. Look over there."

The girl in black robes smiled sweetly, extending a slender, jade-like finger and pointing to a patch of sky in the distance.

Ye Xingkong looked up and discovered that the top floor of this hall was actually a transparent barrier, allowing a direct view of the outer universe.

"This is this"

Ye Xingkong's eyes widened, and he immediately showed a look of surprise.

Outside the transparent barrier, in the pitch-black void, there was a huge, dark crack.

This spatial rift is probably thousands of kilometers long and hundreds of kilometers wide, emitting a hazy, illusory light. Within it, one can even see countless faint threads of law, sometimes intertwining and sometimes breaking and disappearing.

"It is actually an external manifestation of the fundamental laws of the universe!"

Ye Xingkong couldn't help but speak up, his face showing shock.

He was obviously very familiar with this scene. The huge crack in front of him was similar to the "Ten Wonders" that he had been studying for a hundred years.

However, the "Ten Wonders" are divided into ten places, each corresponding to one of the ten fundamental laws of the universe.

However, within this enormous crack, Ye Xingkong could simultaneously see the manifestation of the ten fundamental laws of the universe.

In other words, here one can comprehend the laws of space, the laws of time, and the other eight subordinate laws.

"Your Highness, if you wish to comprehend the crack during your cultivation, you can do so directly within the palace."

"Remember! Never leave Yuanzhong Palace even for a moment."

A serious expression flashed across the pretty face of the girl in the black robe.

"dangerous?"

Ye Xingkong reluctantly withdrew his gaze from the crack and asked in surprise.

"It's natural."

The girl in black robes nodded, a hint of apprehension flashing in her bright eyes: "The primordial universe is wondrously created, containing many incredible places. However, great opportunities are often accompanied by great dangers."

"Comprehending the fundamental laws near this rift is about five times more efficient than outside. But the terrifying spatial crushing power alone is enough to cause even the strongest among the immortals to perish."

“Yuanzhong Palace is a great treasure. Its placement here is actually to suppress this spatial rift.”

Ye Xingkong nodded, immediately understanding.

No wonder, this "crack" is so magical, yet it has not been developed by the Qianwu Secret Realm to become a sacred place for cultivation. It turns out that it has such dangers.

Only because Ye Xingkong is a disciple personally taught by the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom can he enjoy such treatment in Yuanzhong Palace.

Places like the "Ten Wonders" initially contained immense dangers.

It was only after being transformed by the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom using heaven-defying methods that it gradually became safe and could be comprehended by many cosmic-level and even stellar-level little guys.

"My teacher's decision to have me stay in Yuanzhong Palace to cultivate is clearly for a reason."

Ye Xingkong silently thanked the black-robed girl who was the realm master, and then flew straight into the "Palace of Absolute Heaven".

"The clan patriarch really dotes on this youngest disciple!"

The black-robed girl, the realm master, watched Ye Xingkong's departing figure, a strange light flashing in her bright, beautiful eyes, and she couldn't help but murmur softly.

When powerful beings in the universe recruit disciples, they may not dedicate themselves to teaching each one; at most, they may offer a few words of guidance occasionally.

Not to mention someone like the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom, whose personal disciples might have to wait decades or even centuries to see him. Some disciples with lower cultivation levels are even directly assigned to be taught by those who joined the sect earlier and were granted the title of king.

However, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom took great care of Ye Xingkong and directly brought him under his wing to cultivate.

The most valuable thing is still the phrase, "You can come to me anytime if you have any questions."

This kind of treatment is not available to ordinary direct disciples; only the "successor of the mantle" receives it.

Too
Among all the disciples that the Qianwu Kingdom Lord has taken in, the strongest one is only at the peak of the King-level. Without some extraordinary opportunity, he probably has no hope of ever becoming a Universe Venerable in this lifetime.

But his expectation for Ye Xingkong was—to become a cosmic venerable one.

What a high evaluation!

The vision of a ruler of the universe is so lofty that he could utter such words without any basis.

······
Ye Xingkong entered the "Palace of Absolute Heaven" and discovered that it contained hidden wonders.

It's less like a grand hall and more like a world unto itself.

From the outside, the Jue Tian Palace appears to be only a few square kilometers in size, but once inside, it feels like a completely different world.

Mountains, rivers, seas, and plains.
The area is so vast that it stretches as far as the eye can see.

"As expected of a palace-type treasure, the spatial laws contained within it alone are anything but simple."

Ye Xingkong looked around and couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration.

He was a half-baked weapon refiner. Although he had never studied weapon refining techniques since leaving the legacy of the immortal "Cold" teacher, he still had a basic eye for them.

"As expected of the ruler of the universe, one of the oldest and strongest people in the human race, he is truly wealthy."

"Even though it has fallen several times, it still has a very solid foundation."

Ye Xingkong stretched lazily, thinking lightly in his heart.

After a few minutes.

Outside Ye Xingkong's cultivation manor in the virtual universe.

The black-robed girl who had just parted ways with Ye Xingkong in reality was looking at him with a smile.

"Your Highness, we meet again."

"This time, the clan ancestor ordered me to deliver the cultivation manual to Your Highness."

The girl in black winked at Ye Xingkong, smiled faintly, and with a wave of her hand, seven or eight heavy black metal boxes appeared in front of her.

"Thank you, sir. I do not yet know your name."

Ye Xingkong hurriedly thanked him.

"Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite."

“You are the king’s personal disciple, and your status is much higher than that of us black-robed deacons.”

“My name is Qingyu, and I am the realm master of the Qing lineage of the Qianwu royal family.”

Qingyu said with a smile.

"The Qianwu royal family, the 'Qing' lineage."

Ye Xingkong pondered for a moment, seemingly recalling the Realm Lord Qingyan from the extraterritorial battlefield many years ago.

I wonder how they are doing now.

However, given Menglin's strength, she shouldn't encounter too much danger as long as she doesn't go to extremely dangerous places outside the battlefield.

"Your Highness, the King's mission has been completed."

"I shall take my leave now."

Qingyu smiled faintly, and his figure disappeared into the virtual universe.
