Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

"Jiang Chen".

"Jiang Chen, you've arrived."

There were already 32 young people around. Jiang Chen glanced around and recognized them as the same group who had gone to study the "Giant Axe Chaos Stele" with him.

Among them were Uka and Rong Jun.

Not far away, ten people were gathered together. They all seemed to be young people trying to comprehend the "Nine Universes Chaos Stele," as Luo Feng was among them.

"Can we enter the Sky Bridge now?" Jiang Chen asked, puzzled.

"We just arrived too. Why don't you ask Lord Guardian?" a young man said with a smile, pointing to the Guardian not far away.

Not far from the square stood a man dressed in a black star-patterned robe. The man had four ears but no nose.

The steadfast man walked over with a smile on his face: "Hello, Jiang Chen, and all of you young people who have come from afar."

"I am Baffin, the guardian of the Skybridge dimension, but I prefer to be called the guardian."

"Greetings, Lord Guardian." Jiang Chen bowed respectfully.

"Let me give you a brief introduction," Guardian Baffin nodded. "This Sky Bridge plane was created specifically for the 52 Chaos Steles in Chaos City."

"Because our human race in the universe has been comprehending the 52 Chaos Steles for billions of years, 52 schools of thought have been formed in Chaos City."

"For example, since you are all studying the 'Giant Axe Chaos Stele,' you naturally belong to the 'Giant Axe' school."

"While all of them comprehend the Chaos Stele, their understanding varies. Only those with higher strength will be given another chance to comprehend the Chaos Stele by Chaos City."

"How do we prove who is stronger? We can't just gather you all together and have you compete again like in the Genius Battle every time."

Jiang Chen nodded slightly. What he said made sense. The Bridge to Heaven was right there. If you wanted more opportunities to gain insights, you should try to cross the Bridge to Heaven.

If you can overcome the obstacles, you will naturally have more opportunities to comprehend the Chaos Stele.

If you can't get past it, it means you're too weak and not qualified to comprehend the Chaos Stele.

The guardian, Baffin, smiled and said, "That's why we built the Skybridge dimension in the virtual universe. The further you cross the Skybridge, the stronger you are!"

"This island has 52 bridges to the sky, each corresponding to one of the 52 Chaos Steles. You are here to study the Giant Axe Chaos Stele, so go and challenge the 'Giant Axe Bridge to the Sky'."

"This 'Giant Axe Bridge to Heaven' is incredibly long, arguably the most difficult bridge to heaven. You have to keep climbing up level after level, a total of 32 levels!"

"If you successfully pass the first level, you will gain one opportunity for enlightenment. For each additional level you pass, you will gain another opportunity for enlightenment!"

Jiang Chen and the other young people immediately understood that the rules were easy to grasp.

However, those who haven't succeeded probably don't know that most of these geniuses who think they're making rapid progress can't even get past the first level.

"However, the Bridge to Heaven is very difficult to cross," the guardian Baffin added. "Little guys like you usually can't even get past the first level at first."

Everyone was taken aback.

"Immortals usually reach the 10th floor," the guardian Baffin remarked. "If they reach the 18th floor..."

That would make one virtually invincible among the immortals. Reaching the 21st floor would grant one the title of "Lord of the Universe."

"The ruler of the universe!" Apart from Jiang Chen, even Rong Jun and Uka did not know so much.

They wanted to become the strongest among the immortals, but now they heard that as long as they passed the 18th level, they could become an invincible being among the immortals, and if they passed the 21st level, they could become the ruler of the universe. This was truly astonishing.

For most geniuses, including Jiang Chen himself, becoming a Universe Venerable is extremely difficult. Most people's goal is simply to become a relatively powerful Immortal. This gives you an idea of ​​how difficult it is to reach the 21st level.

The Guardian Baffin smiled and said, "This is a road to the pinnacle. There are countless people among the human race who follow these 52 paths. And once you pass the 18th level, you will directly obtain permanent residency in Chaos City without any other additional conditions."

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this. If he became a permanent resident, wouldn't he also be able to ride a tamed beast and roam around the city?

Getting past 18 floors is already extremely difficult.

"Those who tried to enter before failed." The guardian, Baffin, looked at Jiang Chen and the others. "Next, go and try the Giant Axe Sky Bridge."

"I'll do it!"

A deep, powerful voice rang out. Rong Jun, with disheveled hair and bare feet, stepped forward first and charged towards the "Giant Axe Bridge to Heaven" among the 52 bridges to heaven.

Jiang Chen wasn't in a hurry. He figured that everyone in this group attempting the Giant Axe Sky Bridge, except for Rong Jun, would likely fail.

It won't waste much time.

Let's talk about it when it's my turn.

This is the peace of mind and inner tranquility that self-confidence brings.

Five minutes later.

The defender was taken aback and exclaimed, "Wow, amazing! Rong Jun has already passed the first level of the Giant Axe Bridge to Heaven. He failed on the second level, which is truly remarkable. He succeeded on his first attempt at the Bridge to Heaven."

"Next!"

"That savage actually succeeded, I'll give it a try." Uka clenched his fist and then rushed towards the Sky Bridge.

But just three minutes later, the watchman, Baffin, said, "Failed. Next, the next one."

"I'll do it!" Another young man stepped forward.

"Failed, move on to the next one!"

"Failure! Move on to the next one!"

"fail-"

Now the young people present realized just how difficult the Tongtian Bridge was. Rong Jun was able to cross it because of his great strength, not because the Tongtian Bridge was too weak.

"Of all the members of your Giant Axe School, only Rong Jun has failed, leaving only you, Luo Feng."

At this moment, there are 38 newcomers who went to challenge the Nine Heavens Bridge. Six of them went before Jiang Chen arrived. Of the 32 people, Rong Jun succeeded, 30 failed in a row, leaving only Luo Feng.

This made Jiang Chen sigh: "As expected, the Bridge to Heaven is very difficult to cross. Everyone here is a super genius from the Universe Kingdom. There are three from the Primordial Region and eight from the Heaven Region, yet not one of them can pass the first level."

"Jiang Chen, keep up the good work!" Guardian Baffin smiled at Jiang Chen.

"Your batch, plus the nearly 900 people who were tested before, means that almost 90% have been tested."

"Of all these people, apart from Bolan and Rong Jun, none of the others have made it past the first level."

"Mm." Jiang Chen nodded with a smile.

Jiang Chen and his group waited on the city wall for a whole day, so it's quite normal that nearly 900 of these young geniuses have now passed the Tongtian Bridge test.

"Bolan is very strong. He passed through the first and second levels in one go, gaining two extra opportunities for enlightenment," the guardian Baffin exclaimed. "Rong Jun is also impressive. As a member of the Primordial Zone, he was able to pass through the first level on his first try."

"Your other genius in the Primal Secret Realm, Long Yun, also failed to pass the first level."

Among this group of exceptional geniuses, Bolan, Longyun, Galesi, Uka, Rongjun, and others all took the test, but apart from Bolan and Rongjun, the others didn't even pass the first level.

Including Luo Feng, because Luo Feng entered a few minutes earlier than them, so by that calculation, he also failed to pass the first level on his first attempt.

However, Jiang Chen knew that Luo Feng had made his move later on and was now just waiting for an opportunity.

For example, the teachings and guidance of King Zhenyan.

"Go for it!" Guardian Baffin looked at Jiang Chen expectantly.

He also had inside information, knowing that Jiang Chen had overshadowed Bo Lan back then. Now that Bo Lan has improved so much, what about Jiang Chen?

Will Jiang Chen soar to great heights, or will he be completely left behind by Bo Lan and Rong Jun, fading into obscurity?

Whoosh!

Jiang Chen transformed into a blur and flew directly towards a bridge that stretched to the ends of the earth in the distance.

There is a stone tablet in front of the Tongtian Bridge, with the words "Giant Axe" on it.
