Chapter 160 The Peak Realm
Qi Yuan gifted treasures to his relatives and friends, including several close friends from his class.
He also gifted each of the following individuals, including Nine Swords, Atuka, Lily, and Huntuo, a common but valuable treasure.
It wasn't that he was unwilling to give away something more valuable, but rather that they wouldn't need such precious treasures and would only bring trouble. Even ordinary treasures were extremely valuable to them.
Nearly 100,000 years have passed, and more than 90% of the geniuses of that generation have perished.
Even so, it still has the highest success rate in the tens of thousands of genius battles.
Leaving aside the special case of Qi Yuan, both Jiu Jian and Wan Luo have already become Kings and Immortals.
Atuka and Huntuo became Immortal Marquises, while Lily, Varo, and others became Immortal Army Lords.
Hun Tuo's talent was originally inferior to these people, but he was very lucky and obtained an opportunity in the extraterritorial battlefield, which improved his talent.
Their group alone is enough to elevate the quality of this generation of geniuses.
At this moment, a banquet was being prepared in the Nine Swords King's mansion to celebrate his official coronation as a king in the outer battlefield.
The mansion was brightly decorated and bustling with activity.
Servants bustled about, busy setting up the banquet venue, placing various delicacies on the tables, and opening bottles of fine wine, filling the air with their aroma.
Guests arrived one after another. Most of them were friends and colleagues whom Nine Swords King had made in the cultivation world, and some were his fellow disciples. Everyone's face was filled with joyful smiles, and they all offered their congratulations to Nine Swords King.
Dressed in a magnificent royal robe, the Nine Swords King stood dashingly at the entrance of his mansion, warmly welcoming each guest.
His eyes revealed confidence and pride, after all, being crowned a king was an extremely high honor for a cultivator.
Atuka, Huntuo, and Lily also arrived.
During the gathering, they inevitably talked about the healthy competition between the Nine Swords and Qi Yuan back then, and they couldn't help but admire how quickly Qi Yuan rose to power, which was simply a miracle of the universe.
Just as they were marveling at this, a servant rushed in to report that the Meteor King had arrived.
The title "Meteor King" was earned by Wanluo. The alien race described her attacks as swift and powerful, like a falling star, catching people off guard.
Wanluo's arrival surprised everyone at the banquet, and they all stood up to greet her respectfully.
It wasn't just because she was a powerful figure who had been granted the title of King, but also because she was Qi Yuan's wife.
Over the years, with Qi Yuan's support and guidance, her progress has been no less than that of the Nine Swords.
Everyone believes that her future achievements may even surpass those of the Nine Swords.
"Meteor King, I never expected you to come in person. What an honor!" Nine Swords King said with a loud laugh.
"Nine Swords, you still love throwing banquets so much." Wanlu covered her mouth and giggled. "Qi Yuan had something to do and couldn't get away, but he didn't forget you, his friends from humble beginnings, so he asked me to bring you some treasures."
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and one by one, the precious treasures turned into streams of light and fell into the hands of the four people.
After they acknowledged the master, they couldn't help but tremble. This was a priceless treasure, and it contained all the aspects they most urgently needed to improve!
They quickly put it away, not daring to reveal any information about the treasure, otherwise those alien cosmic venerables would probably come to snatch it.
"Thank you, Lord of Origin, for bestowing this treasure!" they said respectfully in unison.
The guests present were all itching to know what the treasures in their hands were, wondering about their quality and function.
After all, it came from the hands of a cosmic ruler, so it must be extraordinary.
"Oh dear, it's a pity I was born too early. If only I could have been born in the same year as the Lord of Origin, I could at least have benefited from his glory." A powerful king sighed with envy.
Those around him nodded in agreement; to be able to establish a connection with a ruler of the universe was an immense honor.
Qi Yuan organized the treasure-refining inheritance and cultivation experience of the Mountain Guest, while the Nether Sea clone continued to refine treasures and improve his treasure-refining skills. The human clone and Tu Yu body continued to comprehend the laws, respectively comprehending the laws of space and fusion.
With the cultivation experience and various secret techniques inherited from the Mountain Hermit, his cultivation progress improved to a certain extent, and he was able to create secret techniques even faster.
He has created a secret technique for the Illusion Warrior that can unleash his full potential.
This secret technique is based on the original ultimate secret technique and has been integrated into the framework of "Fingertip Universe". With his will reaching the level of the Lord of the Universe, the power of this Illusion Warrior secret technique has surpassed that of the first-order Lord of the Universe.
He also selected a divine power burning technique from that vast and smoky heritage, which can intensify the burning of divine power in a very short time and raise the power of the secret technique to a higher level.
In other words, Qi Yuan's current combat strength has reached the second level of the Universe Lord.
However, if he uses the strongest secret techniques bestowed by the universe, "Analysis of All Things" and "Soul Blade", along with the secret technique of burning divine power, his attack power will instantly leap to the fourth tier!
This is already considered a powerful level among the Lords of the Universe.
At this point, Qi Yuan couldn't help but contact his teacher, the Lord of Darkness, expressing his desire to venture into the Cosmic Sea.
"Actually, you should have gone to the Cosmic Sea a long time ago. Once you reach the level of the Lord of the Universe, it's very difficult to gain experience in the Primal Universe. The Cosmic Sea is the true cradle of the strong." The Lord of Darkness affirmed his idea.
However, the true form of the Lord of Darkness is still wandering in the cosmic sea and has not returned. In addition, he has been hiding his human identity, so it is not suitable for him to take Qi Yuan out. Therefore, he has to entrust Qi Yuan to the Lord of Chaos to lead him.
This time, Qi Yuan chose to use the body of Tu Yu when he went out to explore the vast universe.
He did not bring the "Fortune Origin Tower" because leaving the original universe would greatly weaken the universe's origin through the secret method of "Origin Evolution Theory," and it would be a loss to lose it.
Therefore, the only equipment he possesses is the top-tier soul treasure "Nine Grains", the pinnacle treasure "Starlight Armor", the top-tier domain treasure "Mountain Shaking Carry", the newly exchanged top-tier flying palace treasure "Snowy Realm", and the top-tier flying wing treasure "Slaying Wu Wings".
The "Starlight Armor" set is a treasure set that includes combat boots and attack weapons such as claws.
Therefore, Qi Yuan's equipment is quite complete in terms of functionality and quality, ranking in the upper-middle range among all the equipment of the Lords of the Universe.
After reuniting with the Lord of Chaos, he led Qi Yuan on a flight, explaining the distribution of power in the Cosmic Sea and various taboos, and carefully recounting the information of the powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea.
There are two ways to leave the primordial universe and travel to the cosmic ocean.
The most common and convenient method is through the Toya black hole.
Toya black holes are extremely large black holes in the primordial universe. Their powerful tearing force destroyed the membrane of the primordial universe, forming a stable exit.
After passing through the black hole, one can directly enter the cosmic ocean, and there are 39 natural wormholes distributed around the exit, which facilitates subsequent navigation.
The second method is to enter the spatial interlayer, continuously teleport until reaching the end of the spatial interlayer, and then forcibly penetrate the cosmic membrane of the original universe to enter the cosmic sea.
While this method is feasible, it is time-consuming and risky, and weaker universe lords would not dare to use it.
They naturally used the first route to enter the Cosmic Sea this time.
"Look, that's the Toya Black Hole," said the Chaos City Lord, pointing to a huge black hole in front of him.
The Toya Black Hole resembled a lurking prehistoric beast, exuding a breathtaking aura.
The space around the black hole was distorted beyond recognition by the powerful gravity, with black vortexes spinning wildly as if trying to devour everything.
Even the laws of the universe cannot exist in this black hole space, which shows how terrifying it is.
That powerful tearing force can instantly shred the divine body of a cosmic lord, which is why one must be a cosmic lord to enter the cosmic sea.
Of course, Qi Yuan, being such a special case, cannot be regarded as a supreme being of the universe.
Passing through the Toya Black Hole, one sees endless chaotic air currents swirling around, making the divine body feel incredibly comfortable, as if an invisible constraint has been removed from its body.
Qi Yuan understood that this was because once they arrived at the Cosmic Sea, the influence of the primordial universe had weakened considerably. There were no longer any restrictions on sixth-tier combat power here, allowing the strongest beings in the universe to unleash their full combat power.
"Look, that is the primordial universe that gave birth to the endless life of our cosmic age."
The two stood in the void and looked back. They saw the enormous primordial universe behind them, which blocked their entire view. Compared to it, they were as insignificant as a speck of dust!
"So beautiful!" Qi Yuan was utterly shocked.
"Let's go." The Lord of Chaos City flew ahead, leading the way.
Soon, they passed by a broken miniature universe.
The Lord of Chaos looked at Qi Yuan and said solemnly, "Qi Yuan, in the Cosmic Sea, these small universes are like coordinates. Remember, the most important thing when venturing into the Cosmic Sea is to memorize the map. Places not marked on the map are unknown areas. Be extremely careful when exploring and don't stray too far. The biggest danger in the Cosmic Sea is getting lost. Once you lose your way and lose the guidance of the map, you may never be able to return!"
He passed on the cosmic sea map collected by the human race to Qi Yuan.
"This map is the culmination of our human race's long exploration and discovery, and the result of countless hardships and sacrifices. It is our highest secret, known only to the Lord of the Universe. You must keep it a secret, without revealing a single word, and do not draw it down. Keep it in your mind, and never put it on any physical object! Do you understand?" the Chaos City Lord instructed him.
"I understand, we absolutely cannot reveal the slightest secret!" Qi Yuan nodded, his eyes resolute.
"This is the Cosmic Sea, the true breeding ground for the strong," said the Lord of Chaos. "Here, you will encounter all sorts of challenges and opportunities."
The Lord of Chaos City explained to him the distribution of forces in the cosmic sea, including the two holy land universes and the three great cosmic eras, encompassing hundreds of forces.
Primitive life in the universe belongs to the third universe era.
Because the powerful individuals from the first two cosmic eras had cultivated for longer periods, their combat strength was often extremely formidable.
"We should pay special attention to the cultivators of the First Universe Era. They are all nearing the end of their lives, and they are all incredibly crazy. They fight without regard for their lives and are absolute madmen!" the Chaos City Lord sighed.
Looking at the scene before him, Qi Yuan was filled with anticipation.
He knew that his journey through the cosmic sea had only just begun, and countless challenges awaited him in the future.
They flew and teleported continuously. Time passed, and after a long time, Qi Yuan finally saw a huge mountain in the distance.
The top of the mountain seemed to have been severed by an unparalleled powerhouse, the cut as smooth as a mirror, and it collapsed, with countless pebbles swirling around the fallen peak.
"This is the Peak Realm!" The Chaos City Lord pointed to the enormous mountain in the distance and said, "Our human race's settlement is over there."
They flew swiftly toward the enormous mountain.
As the saying goes, "Looking at a river makes a horse run itself to death."
Even though they teleported repeatedly along the way, the enormous mountain seemed to still be right in front of them, yet they could never get close to it.
It was quite some time before they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The vast river flowed calmly, its length seemingly endless. The mountains were astonishingly large; what Qi Yuan had initially thought were pebbles were actually massive stone platforms, each at least tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, while the fallen peaks were measured in light-years.
The Lord of Chaos City led Qi Yuan up the mountain and soon arrived at a giant rock.
The boulder was located in a secluded spot within the scree belt, its surface as broad as a continent.
A magnificent palace stands on the continent, the settlement of humankind in the Peak Realm.
They descended upon the continent and arrived at the temple.
"Chaos, you've arrived. And who is this?" The Lord of Void Gold looked at Qi Yuan with a puzzled expression.
When Qi Yuan emerged from the Cosmic Sea, Tu Yu used the properties of the top-tier soul treasure "Nine Grains" to change his appearance and life force, transforming into a strange human universe master.
"Haha, it's been a long time, Lord of False Gold."
As he spoke, Qi Yuan restored his life force.
"Lord of Origin! You've finally come to explore the Cosmic Sea!" The Lord of Void Gold smiled and led him in, introducing him to the Lord of the Cosmic Sea who was staying at the human settlement.
To welcome them, almost all the cosmic lords who were able to come came, totaling more than twenty.
Qi Yuan didn't recognize nearly half of the universe lords among them; they were all alien universe lords who had joined the Hong Alliance.
The Hongmeng is a cosmic alliance primarily composed of humans, containing approximately forty universe lords. The number of alien universe lords exceeds that of humans.
However, the quality of the human universe masters is higher, and their numbers are also the majority. In addition, the Giant Axe Founder is the strongest being in the universe, so humans are the masters of the Hong Alliance.
The alien universe lords who come here have fought alongside the human race for countless years, and they are unlikely to betray you; they are reliable.
Because of Qi Yuan's extraordinary combat strength and talent potential, they treated him with great courtesy and enthusiasm.
"Come, the usual rules." The Lord of Chaos raised his wine cup, "May the Lord of Origin have endless treasures and an eternal life!"
