Humans are devouring, drawing cards from all realms, starting with Yang Jian.

Qianwu Universe Kingdom, Core Star Region.

Inside a majestic temple suspended in the void.

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom sat on his throne, with a huge light screen floating in front of him.

As the ruler of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, he has been paying close attention to this year's Peak Genius Battle.

To be precise, he is paying attention to someone.

Jiang Ming.

This unparalleled genius who emerged from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom greatly enhanced his prestige in front of the other cosmic kingdom rulers.

"Hahaha, look, look! This is a genius from my Qianwu Universe Kingdom!"

He could already imagine how many envious and jealous looks he would receive after the Genius Battle ended.

But when Jiang Ming unleashed the "Three Forbidden Techniques".

The smile on his face froze.

"That is..."

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom suddenly stood up, and the space around him was constantly shattering and annihilating.

His gaze was fixed on the two moves Jiang Ming used on the light screen.

"Suppress" and "Kill".

That way of applying the laws of space, that unique and profound charm...

too familiar.

It was so familiar that it instantly transported him back to countless years ago.

That was a young man of equally outstanding talent and charisma.

His name is Koti.

The number one prodigy across hundreds of millions of eras!

As a realm lord, he slew an immortal marquis!

He braved the Heavenly Mountain, the realm's lord, and left his name throughout countless ages!

but.........

Koti is dead.

They were annihilated by the Zerg using a soul-based secret technique, and even the Lord of Chaos City could not revive them.

His unique skills were subsequently lost.

The "Three Forbidden Techniques" were Koti's self-created secret techniques, which were not yet perfected and had never been passed on to outsiders.

But now—

"Koti..."

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom murmured, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

He didn't know how Jiang Ming obtained this unique skill.

But he knew that this matter was beyond his control.

Because Kodi is a disciple of the Lord of Chaos City.

In the blink of an eye, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom separated a wisp of his will, which instantly crossed the endless void and disappeared into the depths of the virtual universe.

…………

Virtual universe, Thunder Island.

This is the core area of ​​the Virtual Universe Corporation, the abode of countless immortal gods.

At the highest point of Thunder Island stands a magnificent palace, shrouded in chaotic mist year-round.

The Great Hall of Chaos.

This is the residence of the Lord of Chaos City.

The figure of the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom appeared outside the main hall.

"City Lord."

The voice of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom echoed in the main hall.

"A dry witch?"

A vast, ancient voice echoed from the depths of the main hall.

The voice seemed to come from ancient times, carrying an indescribable sense of power.

"What is it?"

"During the Battle of the Ultimate Geniuses, a young man named Jiang Ming unleashed a supreme martial art."

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom said respectfully.

"That ultimate technique... is very similar to Koti's 'Three Forbidden Techniques'."

Silence fell deep within the main hall.

A moment later, a sound came.

"Koti's ultimate technique..."

That desolate voice, unusually, carried an emotion.

.........

at the same time.

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, who was in the Qianwu Secret Realm, had already left.

He is heading towards Qiulong Star.

The Supreme Being of the Universe can travel thousands of light-years in a single instant.

With the strength of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, he could travel from the Qianwu Secret Realm to any location in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom within 30 seconds.

While on his journey, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom couldn't help but wonder how Jiang Ming had learned the "Three Forbidden Techniques".

The signature techniques of a strong person are usually reserved for those who have been eliminated or are facing a life-or-death crisis.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult for it to be passed down while the author is still alive.

Because his opponents might very well obtain the leaked secret techniques and methods, and thus discover the weaknesses of the master of the techniques.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, strong individuals will value their family's unique skills above all else during their lifetime.

It will never be easily leaked out unless one is on the verge of death.

Koti died very suddenly, so it's unlikely he had time to arrange his succession.

"Could it be the Zerg? Did the Zerg obtain Koti's ultimate techniques from him?"

A murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom.

"No, it's just a top-tier martial art. It's not worth the Zerg risking being caught by the Chaos City Lord before they can seize it."

This idea only existed for a moment before it was rejected by the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom himself.

As he pondered, a colorful planet appeared in the consciousness of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler.

Even though they were hundreds of light-years apart, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom still saw Jiang Ming in the cultivation room.

"The little guy has quite a few secrets."

With just one glance, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom sensed a great deal from Jiang Ming.

Soul fluctuations, the flow of time in one's surroundings, the physical body...

"Wait, how can his physical body be so powerful?"

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom was immediately startled. He could see that Jiang Ming's current life level was at the Hengxing level, but such terrifying physical strength and vitality...

Noticing this, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom couldn't help but look at it even more intently.

A domain lord-level expert can see the cellular structure with the naked eye.

For the cosmic sovereigns, as long as there is no equal power to counter them, nothing is a secret in their eyes.

"His body? Is it a special life form?"

The King of Qianwu Kingdom could not hide his shock.

"However, his soul is indeed 100% human."

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom thought to himself.

......

As soon as the battle ended, Jiang Ming appeared in the garden square.

......

As soon as the battle ended, Jiang Ming appeared in the garden square.

The garden square was eerily quiet. All eyes were on Jiang Ming, their eyes devoid of fighting spirit, provocation, or even jealousy—only a complex emotion that was hard to describe.

It was as if they were looking at some kind of monster that shouldn't exist in the world.

Jiang Ming remained calm as he surveyed the square.

He looked up at the huge leaderboard screen above the square.

On the screen, his name was prominently displayed at number one, with a score of 7,777,770,000.

Second place, Berlan, with 917,770,000 points.

.....

"Berlan's performance was much worse than I expected."

Jiang Ming was somewhat surprised. In the original timeline, Bolan had obtained more than 130 billion points, but at this moment he only got 91 billion.

"Was it influenced by me?"

Jiang Ming couldn't help but glance at Bo Lan.

In just a moment, Jiang Ming stopped paying attention and found what he wanted to see on the screen in the square.

At this moment, only about forty screens remained on the plaza, one of which displayed Luo Feng's battle footage.

In the scene, Luo Feng keeps the last "Flying Hou" in place, sitting cross-legged and waiting for time to pass.

"It seems Luo Feng hasn't been affected; he's still proceeding steadily, planning to cultivate within the trial space."

Jiang Ming discovered that because of his appearance, this year's Genius Battle had undergone many changes compared to the original timeline.

Firstly, Berlan's performance has declined significantly. Although he is still ten times ahead of the third-place finisher, his performance is much weaker than it was on the original timeline.

And Luo Feng...

There was a hint of anticipation in Jiang Ming's eyes; perhaps Luo Feng in this life would be different.

Without lingering, Jiang Ming left the garden square and headed towards the rest building of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

At the same time, Jiang Ming's body in the real universe suddenly disappeared!
