Swallow the starry sky, grind to become the strongest in the universe

Chapter 118 Passing Through the Eighteen Levels, Residing Eternally in Chaos City (Bonus Chapter)

"Nothing major has happened in these three hundred years, has it?"

As soon as Yu Duan finished speaking, Tian Ran quickly added, "Most of it is good news."

“The master’s friend ‘Koti’ crossed the cosmic-level Primal Tongtian Mountain 13 years ago in the Primal Universe.”

"And Master Zhenli has broken through to the cosmic level..."

Naturally, it projected out the emails with key points highlighted.

These are all pieces of information about Yu Duan's relatives and friends.

Among them, Master Zhenli broke through to the cosmic level 367 years ago in the primordial universe.

This speed is not fast, it's even rather slow.

When Yu Duan returned to the Light Source Star this time, he specially took out three Domain Lord-level Bloodline Evolution Agents and distributed them to Master Zhenli, Lord Kun, and Shenjian.

With Yu Duan's financial resources, acquiring a few Domain Lord-level Bloodline Evolution Agents would be a piece of cake.

In addition, Yu Duan specially prepared a treasure for Master Zhenli that could enhance his talent in the fundamental laws of lightning, worth approximately ten million Hunyuan units.

It is a treasure of the same level as the 'Nine Dawns Divine Elixir' that Master Qinghuan Wang gave him to consume.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Master Zhenli will definitely grow to the level of a Realm Lord.

As for the bottleneck of immortality, given Master Zhenli's potential, it will be very difficult to break through.

"Kodi's progress has accelerated quite a bit."

From the time Yu Duan and his group of geniuses entered the Primordial Secret Realm at the cosmic level, more than two thousand years have passed since then in the Primordial Universe.

It took more than two thousand years for Kodi to cross the primordial Tongtian Mountain, a feat that was much faster than the more than three thousand years that Yu Duan had initially estimated.

In addition, Anyao and Chili's child was born. The child has great talent and has joined the Northern Divine Land. The child is already a core student at the Stellar level.

"As for the bad news, there's only one... Master's friend, Delis, has fallen." Tianran spoke cautiously.

Yu Duan was taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded quietly: "How did Delis die?"

"They perished during their trials in the Blood Luo World. When Aarons suggested that Master go to the Blood Luo World, he also told Pennolai and Delis..."

At the time, Aarons was unaware of the true function of the Blood Crystal, only regarding it as a treasure to enhance one's innate talent in the laws of origin, and specifically told Yu Duan and the other two about it.

Afterwards, both Penolai and Delis went to the Blood Luo World to train.

After joining the core of the Virtual Universe Company, the four members of the Northern Miasma Universe Kingdom found themselves in different situations.

Yu Duan and Aarons need no further explanation.

When Aarons was over three hundred years old, he mastered the second level of the Divine Weapon, comparable to Luo Feng in the final battle of the Genius War.

Then, at over four thousand years old, he mastered the third level of the Divine Weapon, a talent that could be considered the best among geniuses.

Even if Peng Nuolai is incompetent, he is still a genius who can comprehend the higher-level fundamental laws at the stellar level.

Only Delis was the least noticeable. After joining the core of the Virtual Universe Company, he quickly fell into the apocalyptic secret realm.

He then diligently carried out his mission, unafraid of danger and without seeking adventure.

After more than a thousand years of preparation, the first high-risk mission to be carried out was in the Blood Luo World.

This is already considered quite stable, but alas, life is unpredictable.

"What a pity... Let's talk to Master Zhenli and ask him to let Delis's immediate family members take up some sinecure positions at the Light Source Company."

Yu Duan let out a long sigh and instructed Tian Ran to handle the matter properly.

Delis was born into a branch of an immortal family. His parents were ordinary domain lords who did not hold much status within the branch.

We've known each other for years. I can still help with a small favor.

"Yes, Master."

After Tianran started working, Yu Duan sat quietly on the rooftop, not trying to understand anything, but just meditating.

I have made considerable progress over the past three hundred years.

In the 103rd year of his secluded cultivation, Yu Duan completed the progress bar several years ahead of schedule, successfully advancing to the 15th level of the Time Pause Secret Technique.

Then, after a little over a century, Yu Duan repaid the advance payment and received the insights gained from the 16th level of time-stopping.

This level also represents the mastery of the laws by the guardian of the eighteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven.

However, Yu Duan at the time was too lazy to waste time crossing the Tongtian Bridge.

"To advance to the sixteenth level, one needs to work for over 4000 years. Even in Chaos City, it would take over 400 years."

"You have to tell the teacher before you cross the overpass."

Passing through the eighteenth level of the Sky Bridge will definitely cause quite a stir.

Especially considering that Yu Duan has only been a realm lord for three hundred years, it's quite an exaggeration that he has already reached this point.

A moment later, Yu Duan's consciousness connected to the virtual universe and headed to Thunder Island to visit his teacher.

Inside that uniquely styled courtyard, rows of grotesque statues were casually placed.

The figure of the Lord of Darkness hovered in mid-air, surrounded by endless, eerie, and profound dark energy, containing a captivating magical power.

"Disciple Yu Duan greets Master!"

As soon as Yu Duan's figure appeared in the courtyard, he respectfully bowed to the Lord of Darkness.

In an instant, the endless dark currents dissipated.

The eerie, decadent aura surrounding the Lord of Darkness completely subsided, and a peaceful aura similar to that of the Lord of Chaos City spread out.

"Preparing to go to the extraterritorial battlefield for training?"

A rare smile appeared on the Lord of Darkness's face as he looked at his youngest disciple.

Yu Duan nodded obediently: "Yes, according to the previous plan, I will arrange for my clone to go, while my main body will continue to cultivate in Chaos City."

"Before that, I planned to make a commotion to attract attention and let people know that I have been cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Darkness nodded slightly: "Alright."

"I will have your senior uncle release some information to help divert attention from your situation."

"Furthermore, with your current mastery of the laws, it's time for you to create your own secret techniques."

"I've prepared some secret techniques for you, and I'll have them delivered to your study in the virtual universe."

"Ask me anytime you have questions during the creation of the secret method."

In the eyes of the Lord of Darkness, Yu Duan's understanding of the laws has now surpassed that of most Marquis-level Immortals.

Continuing to use the secret methods created by others will make it difficult to fully realize one's insights; it's time to create one's own secret methods.

"is teacher!"

……

After bidding farewell to the Lord of Darkness, Yu Duan was directly teleported to the Tongtian Bridge plane.

On the central island of the Skybridge plane, everything remains exactly the same as it was two years ago, unchanged. The guardian, Baffin, smiles as he watches the crowds come and go, just as he always has.

"Shh!"

A streak of light flashed, instantly catching Baffin's attention.

"It's been a long time since His Highness Yu Duan has come to cross the Heavenly Bridge." Baffin's face showed a warm smile.

Yu Duan nodded slightly: "Yes, the last time I tried to conquer the fifteenth floor was more than a thousand years ago."

The Chaos City cultivated in seclusion for three hundred years, which naturally amounted to a thousand years in the primordial universe.

"There's no one on the Sky Bridge of Ten Thousand Universes. I'll escort Your Highness across."

This time, without asking Yu Duan anything, Baffin warmly escorted him into the Myriad Universe Sky Bridge.

The sixteenth level of the Skybridge, the core region of a large galaxy.

Countless luminous materials and nebulae converge, with stars densely dotting the background.

This time, Yu Duan used a custom-made Time Sword.

Therefore, the gatekeeper's weapon changed from the original time difference wheel to a battle sword exactly like Yu Duan's.

This time, however, Yu Duan killed his opponent on this floor almost in the blink of an eye.

Sixteenth floor, cleared!

……

On the seventeenth floor, Yu Duan easily defeated the gatekeeper after two rounds of sparring.

……

The eighteenth level of the Sky Bridge.

From here, the enormous quasar is already visible, almost obscuring half of the night sky.

Countless stars were being torn apart by these celestial bodies, and a large amount of matter poured into the enormous accretion disk, emitting endless brilliance.

"Currently, among the realm lords of the Primal Secret Realm, only two can pass my test. I hope Your Highness can become the third."

A figure clad in white battle armor slowly landed in front of Yu Duan.

Around this figure, spacetime is naturally affected and distorted, forming a halo of spacetime lens light.

"Your mastery of the laws is only at my level 90 years ago, so you should make the first move."

Yu Duan's voice rang out.

A dazzling halo of starlight surrounded Yu Duan, making him appear like a young god looking down at the white-robed warrior before him.

"Boom!"

The white-robed warrior immediately attacked, his dazzling sword light slashing towards Yu Duan.

Wherever the sword light passed, space and time were torn apart, creating a chasm tens of thousands of kilometers wide that rapidly stretched towards Yu Duan.

"Stab!"

Yu Duan also set off, pushing his movement technique to its limit. Even the afterimages formed by his physical body directly shattered space and time, causing countless spatial fragments to scatter.

boom!
The two terrifying attacks collided at that moment, like two supermassive stars suddenly colliding, triggering an unparalleled explosion.

The countless residual energy waves that raged out were enough to easily annihilate ordinary peak realm lords.

"town!"

The gatekeeper unleashed his full power, countless sword lights blooming to form a forbidden zone, shattering the surrounding space into dust.

The longswords flashed, like brilliant celestial rivers, disappearing towards Yu Duan.

"Eternal Sword Domain!"

Yu Duan also used a similar secret technique, but its power far surpassed that of the gatekeeper's sword domain.

In an instant, based on the cessation of change in inanimate objects, Yu Duan applied all his insights into the fundamental laws of time to their fullest extent, instantly forming an eternal realm.

"not good!"

The gatekeeper's expression changed drastically.

While it cannot stop living things, it can freeze the surrounding matter and energy in place, greatly increasing the resistance to movement.

In particular, the pause domain used by the end is no longer a simple pause of inanimate objects; it incorporates at least 10 subcategories of time changes.

"Rumble..."

The static energy field of matter was forcibly broken open by the gatekeeper in an instant.

But in that instant, Yu Duan's figure had already appeared silently behind him.

"Qiang!"

A dazzling starlight burst forth, condensing into a brilliant sword light that traversed the eighteen levels of the Sky Bridge.

The figure of the white-robed warrior was completely annihilated and turned into nothingness the instant it was swallowed by the sword light.

The bridge to heaven, eighteenth level, pass!
At this moment, Yu Duan's privileges were automatically elevated.

All sorts of previously unavailable information and resources became instantly accessible.

At the same time, Yu Duan directly gained the right to reside permanently in Chaos City.

You can choose a place to cultivate and transform it into your preferred style.

"The difficulty of this level is not too bad."

"Even without using illusions, you can easily get through."

Yu Duan's gaze fell upon the Tongtian Bridge, which was beginning to extend.

The battlefield on the 19th level of the Skybridge is located on the outer edge of the black hole, above the dazzling accretion disk.

The battlefield on the 20th level of the Skybridge is located at the edge of the black hole, or more precisely, above the viewpoint.

"Let me see how long you can hold out against the illusionist on the 19th floor of the Sky Bridge."

Yu Duan's figure transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the massive quasar-like structure of the powerful figure on the bridge.

It's almost impossible to get through.

At this level, not only is one's mastery of the laws extremely high, but the secret techniques one uses are also incredibly exquisite and powerful.

Yu Duan's ability to pass through the eighteenth floor is already the limit.

The guardian of this level only possesses ordinary-level secret techniques.

The secret technique of the nineteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven is at the top level.

Let alone a difference of one level, even within the 'ordinary' level of secret techniques.

The worst ordinary secret technique and the strongest ordinary secret technique can differ in power by more than ten times.
