Chapter 160 Vanishing Without a Trace, Crossing the Sky Bridge
Chapter 160 Vanishing Without a Trace, Crossing the Sky Bridge
Deep within the City Lord's Mansion of Chaos City, on a vast, desolate land, lay corpses—some smaller than humans, others as large as planets—all exuding a terrifying aura, lying silently on this desolate land.
Suddenly, a soft laugh echoed from the depths of this world:
"Interesting, this year's kids are really interesting."
"They appear to be two golden-horned behemoths, but in reality, they are two humans who possessed the golden-horned behemoths. They appear to be two humans who possessed the golden-horned behemoths, but one of them actually only nurtured the golden-horned behemoth into an avatar."
"That primordial core is not the primordial core of the Golden Horned Beast. The Golden Horned Beast is just an avatar; the human body is the true body."
"Strange, when did our human race produce such a top-tier bloodline?"
Inside a sealed room.
"Come out, everyone!"
"Come out, all of you!" "Come out!" "Come out!" The voices kept echoing in his mind, and Ye Yang, who was immersed in his enlightenment, was suddenly interrupted. He couldn't help but cover his ears in pain.
Upon closer inspection, the door to the secret room had been opened at some point.
Moreover, the sound penetrated my brain even when I covered my ears; it was practically ringing directly in my consciousness!
Ye Yang rushed out the door and only then did he realize that the echoing sound had disappeared.
"What a pity, just a little bit more, just a little bit more!" Ye Yang looked longingly at the secret chamber behind him, but from the outside, it was impossible to see the Cosmic Chaos Monument through the swirling chaotic airflow.
Even Bolan, standing beside him, showed a hint of lingering affection on his usually icy face.
After bowing to the guardian Kandri, Ye Yang prepared to leave and quickly digest his insights. This time, he had really absorbed a lot, and countless inspirations were flowing into his mind, which he urgently needed to verify.
However, Canderry still smiled and called out to the two of them.
"Wait a moment."
Ye Yang and the other man both turned around.
"You are all newcomers, so I must remind you that after you leave, first find a place to stay, then enter the virtual universe and apply to enter the 'Bridge to Heaven'."
"The Bridge to Heaven?" Berlan narrowed his eyes.
Ye Yang nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, Guardian."
"Alright, you can go now."
Ye Yang and his companion immediately left the city lord's mansion.
Neither of them had much to say to each other, so they went their separate ways.
There weren't many requirements for where one could cultivate, so Ye Yang found a secluded place and randomly chose a quiet, uninhabited dwelling.
Of course, those marked by various schools of thought cannot be selected.
Upon entering the residence, Ye Yang went straight to the rooftop on the third floor, sat down cross-legged, and entered the virtual universe.
It wasn't about crossing the Sky Bridge, but rather about eagerly opening the two secret manuals, "Cosmic Wanderings" and "Crystal Star."
"Yes, that's it—I finally figured it out—"
"Haha, it's all solved! All solved!"
Ye Yang laughed wildly.
During the three years of training the spaceship, Ye Yang accumulated a large number of questions.
Because Li Pa Hou is not from the "Cosmic School", many questions remain unanswered.
It's all very mysterious; you either understand it or you don't.
However, Li Tahou was quite professional in illusions and soul attacks, and Ye Yang had no doubts about that.
The main questions focus on the combination of time and space.
Regarding spatial perception, especially the secret techniques in "Cosmic Wanderings," although space and time are basically explained separately in the first volume, there are still some instances where they can be combined and applied.
These are all considered difficult points, and many of Ye Yang's questions lie in these points of "space-time combination".
After observing the Cosmic Chaos Monument, most of the questions that had accumulated over three years were answered.
"As expected of the most important treasure of humankind's understanding of the laws! Its guidance for cultivators of the laws is truly too powerful."
Ye Yang sat on the rooftop on the third floor for half a month and learned 829 of the 900 secret techniques contained in the 900 illustrations about "space" in the first volume of "Cosmic Wandering"!
I've also learned 120 of the 900 secrets about "time"!
This is a leap forward!
"As expected, the secret technique 'Cosmic Wandering' is best used in conjunction with studying the Chaos Stele!"
"I used to painstakingly study and speculate on the secret techniques, but the efficiency was just too low."
Ye Yang was extremely excited. With his current understanding of space and time, as well as his ability to combine space and time, he was more than capable of crushing his past self from half a month ago!
No, not only that, even if there were 10 versions of himself from before, unless they used a secret technique of consciousness, the current Ye Yang could easily kill all 10 of them!
"This is insane, absolutely insane!" Inside the wristband space, Babata could only let out his final scream. During the half month that Ye Yang had been sitting cross-legged on the rooftop, he had been screaming almost every day.
This rate of progress is absolutely insane!
"If only our leader had had this talent and these training conditions back then—" Babata sighed, rolled over, and then rolled back over after realizing he couldn't reach the fruit next to him.
On the rooftop, Ye Yang looked at the distant cosmic rift and the intricate threads of law along its edge, and smiled.
"I'm confident that I can easily cross the first level of the Sky Bridge now!"
"It's a pity that the sword technique in 'Crystal Star' that analyzes the essence of space is still too difficult. It's still a long way from mastering that one sword technique..."
It's still a little bit lacking.
"However, I wonder if, with my current understanding of the laws and my ability to combine them with spacetime, it's possible for me to pass through the second level of the Heavenly Bridge?"
"You'll know once you try!"
Ye Yang enters the virtual universe to attempt to cross the Heavenly Bridge.
Luo Feng was studying a line of inscriptions on the rooftop of an uninhabited house.
I was utterly amazed.
His older brother recommended the secret technique "Blood Flowing," and after much hesitation, he decided to buy it anyway. Once he saw it, he knew it was worth it, absolutely worth it!
Studying the nature of space? What a brilliant idea!
It was through studying and practicing the sword techniques in "Bloodstained Swordsmanship" that, although he did not truly master any of the sword techniques, he gained a deeper understanding of the essence of space.
After comprehending the Nine Universes Chaos Stele, many of his questions were answered, and he broke through the Heavenly Bridge and directly passed the first level!
Then, a powerful figure named "Zhen Yan" sent an email to him, telling him about the rooftop where "Lian Luo," the creator of "Floating Blood," had left his inscription.
Luo Feng then studied the 108 characters left behind by Lian Luo.
I gained a lot and admired this genius "Lian Luo" even more.
At the same time, they were also marveling at how sharp Ye Yang's judgment was.
"How long has it been?" Luo Feng asked Xiao Jiu.
"Master, 12 days have passed, and today is the 13th day," Xiao Jiu said.
"Speaking of which, my elder brother comprehended the 'Cosmic Chaos Stele' even earlier than I did, but after he came out, he completely disappeared. He didn't reply to emails, and he didn't try to cross the Tongtian Bridge. I don't know what he did."
Luo Feng frowned as he thought about the recent discussions among the young people in their year's genius competition regarding "Ye Yang" and "Bo Lan":
"My elder brother's sudden disappearance must be due to a major breakthrough; he's immersed in enlightenment, not as they say."
Half a month ago, 1000 geniuses emerged from the secret chambers where they studied the Chaos Stele and set off to try to cross the Heavenly Bridge.
As a result, out of 999 geniuses, only Bolan passed the second level, while Rong Jun and Luo Feng passed the first level.
The others couldn't even get past the first level.
Finally, only one person remained, Ye Yang, who never appeared and failed to cross the Sky Bridge.
Furthermore, no one can be seen in either the real or virtual universe.
Chaos City is so vast, and everyone is busy comprehending the laws to become stronger, so no one has the time or inclination to look for him. If Ye Yang doesn't show up on his own initiative, no one will know what he's up to.
Therefore, some people, in their spare time from cultivation, began to make malicious speculations:
"The Cosmic Chaos Stele is the most difficult Chaos Stele to comprehend. Ye Yang must have lacked talent and blindly chose the most difficult one. As a result, he didn't understand anything after seven days of comprehension and made no progress whatsoever. He was afraid of being discovered, so he simply disappeared."
"If I don't attempt the Sky Bridge challenge, no one will know my true strength, and I'll still be number one. Hehe, a sure win!"
"People should have some self-awareness. When you reach a height that is not rightfully yours because of a stroke of luck, you should be even more careful, otherwise—you will fall very hard."
"Who is Ye Yang? In terms of talent, he's far inferior to Bo Lan! If it weren't for some fortuitous opportunity that granted him the consciousness and will of a Domain Lord, how could he have possibly defeated Bo Lan back then?"
"He's just following the trend and choosing the Cosmic Chaos Monument? Does he really think that being tied for first place with Berlan makes him number one?"
"There's a competitive mechanism within the core group. Just watch, he'll soon be exposed for what he truly is."
These words were spoken by a group of geniuses who were relatively hostile to Ye Yang.
Luo Feng had suffered a soul attack from Ye Yang, and to be honest, it was very unpleasant. It was as if Ye Yang's mark had been permanently left on his mind, like a mountain that suppressed his mind and made him unable to lift his head.
Generally, there are only three possible outcomes:
First, people like Luo Feng and Rong Jun overcome their difficulties with willpower and faith, and emerge from the shadows.
Second, they directly give up and submit, and from then on worship Ye Yang immensely, regarding him as a myth that cannot be surpassed.
Although the second ending will never allow one to surpass Ye Yang, even if one could reach the level of being on par with Ye Yang, one would begin to doubt oneself.
But as long as Ye Yang keeps moving forward, they find it quite comfortable to follow the path he has taken.
Third, they are unable to overcome the obstacle, yet unwilling to admit defeat, thus remaining in this awkward stalemate.
This is the most painful, the most agonizing, a struggle between the steely imprint of thought and reason, which leads to extreme hatred for Ye Yang.
Among this group of geniuses, a few in the third state harbored intense hatred for Ye Yang, with Illusion Demon Galesi leading the way.
They formed a small group that hated Ye Yang.
Similarly, some geniuses who idolized Ye Yang formed a small group.
Both sides love to argue.
Galesi said such outrageous things because of the constant arguments and escalating conflicts.
"Big brother, hurry up and show up! Quickly break through the Tongtian Bridge and shut these people up."
Luo Feng shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to leave the rooftop and head to a city gate to see what the third treasure of Chaos City was, an email arrived.
"? Finally out of seclusion, time to conquer the Heavenly Bridge!" Luo Feng's eyes lit up.
In the virtual universe, in the primitive area of Yuxiang Mountain, in Ye Yang's study.
"This is really true." Ye Yang's consciousness swept over the emails, some urging, some inquiring about concerns, and some offering comfort.
Dumbfounding.
At first, he even listened to Babata's reports on these virtual emails.
It was nothing more than some immortal beings and peer geniuses urging him to hurry up and cross the Heavenly Bridge.
Ye Yang was engrossed in researching the secret techniques and found it a bit annoying, so he simply told Babata not to report for now, and to let anyone who came to inquire...
The reply was, "I'll be going to try it out soon."
Indeed, he was engrossed in researching the secret techniques when he was interrupted, which was a very unpleasant experience. He thought he should wait a little longer.
As a result, half a month passed before we knew it.
Bolan passed the second level, Luo Feng and Rong Jun passed the first level, and Rong Jun was accepted as a disciple by a cosmic ruler. These things happened one by one.
Ye Yang, however, remained completely silent.
"Forget it, I won't reply to everyone individually. Let's just go and conquer the Sky Bridge, Baba Tower!" Ye Yang shouted.
"Understood! Requesting permission from the Virtual Universe Main System," Babata said.
Soon, a voice echoed in Ye Yang's mind: "Identity confirmed, Ye Yang. You have permanently gained the qualification to enter the Bridge to Heaven."
With a flash, Ye Yang disappeared from the manor.
