Chapter 552 Tribal Conference
Chapter 552 Tribal Conference
Chu Yang's arrival caused quite a stir.
On the eighth floor of the Glazed Pagoda, more than a thousand powerful kings had been waiting for a long time, their eyes filled with anticipation.
At the edge of this level, there were several hidden auras. Judging from their auras, they were probably those Venerable Ones who were unable to show themselves, or those who did not wish to show themselves.
As for floors one through seven, they were basically all full, with most of the people there out of curiosity about the new school of thought called "One Beginning".
Of course, some of them genuinely came with the intention of seeking knowledge and learning.
Chu Yang stepped onto the podium, looked around, and thought to himself, "This is a much bigger event than before."
Without much small talk, he went straight into his sermon.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what I will be discussing today is my personal understanding of the laws of time, which is the 'One Beginning' school of thought that I founded..."
Chu Yang started by explaining the most basic principles, making them easy to understand and guiding everyone step by step. Combined with his handsome appearance and unique charm, he quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Chu Yang has now grasped most of the laws of time. In fact, with his current level of understanding of the laws, he could have fully grasped the laws of space first and achieved the position of a cosmic sovereign.
After that, once he has fully comprehended the laws of time, becoming the master of the universe will only be a matter of time. If things go smoothly, it won't even take more than a hundred years, and even if it takes longer, it won't take an entire era.
Alternatively, one could first attain the status of a cosmic supreme being through the laws of time, and then comprehend the laws of space.
Therefore, many powerful human beings now regard Chu Yang as the next universe master of the human race.
For three days and three nights, Chu Yang's voice echoed like an ancient bell above Chaos City.
He explained the mysteries of the laws of time, from the most basic "time pause" to the profound "time reversal," and then to the core of his own unique "One Beginning" school of thought—"Time Return to Oneness."
His words flowed endlessly, like a torrent of the universe pouring forth.
However, for most people, the vastness of the universe is like "hearing a word from a wise man is like hearing a single conversation."
Of the more than a thousand people who were granted the title of King and immortality, only a handful truly understood it.
Most people find it all very confusing, finding it incredibly mysterious but not understanding why.
Even worse, some people became drowsy, their heads bobbing up and down like chicks pecking at rice.
It's no wonder they had that expression. The law of time is the most difficult law for them to access. The vast majority of those who become immortal kings follow the path of space to achieve the position of cosmic venerable.
However, the few cosmic venerables who secretly came to listen to the lecture were all completely absorbed in it.
There were also Venerable Zhenyan and Venerable Tongnan. They had already broken through the billion-year bottleneck because of Chu Yang's "One Beginning" school, and were now eager for the laws of time. Now, listening to them again, they had gained even deeper insights, as if they had opened a door to a higher dimension.
Liang Wei was among them, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she stared intently at Chu Yang on the podium, her heart filled with turmoil.
Three days later, Chu Yang finished his sermon, and Chaos City fell into an eerie silence.
The immortals looked at each other, as if they had just woken up from a long dream.
They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.
"This... is that all?" A high-level immortal who had been granted the title of King scratched his head, looking completely bewildered. "I didn't understand a thing!"
"You understood? I thought I was the only fool!" another immortal king whispered in agreement.
"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't let the Venerables hear you!"
Then everyone remembered that there were still several Venerable Ones present, and they quickly fell silent.
At Chu Yang's signal, the immortals dared not disturb the Venerable One and quietly withdrew.
Chu Yang looked at the venerable ones and smiled slightly: "What do you seniors think?"
An elderly man with white hair and beard stroked his beard and laughed, "Venerable Wanfa, you are truly a genius! I admire you! Your understanding of the laws of time far surpasses that of us old folks."
Another burly venerable elder exclaimed, "The 'One Beginning' school is truly astonishing! I feel I have benefited immensely!"
One of the Venerable Ones even rubbed his hands together, asking somewhat awkwardly, "Um... Venerable Wanfa, could you explain 'Time Returns to One' in more detail? I... I was distracted just now and didn't hear you clearly."
Chu Yang smiled and agreed, and then discussed the mysteries of the laws of time with the other Venerables before letting them leave.
After seeing the Venerable One off, Liang Wei approached, her pretty face slightly flushed, her eyes filled with admiration: "Junior Uncle, are you ready to break through to the Universe Lord realm?"
"The Lord of the Universe?" Chu Yang was taken aback, then laughed, "If we follow the path of the laws, I am indeed 90% confident that I can break through to the Lord of the Universe within a hundred years!"
Liang Wei's beautiful eyes flickered repeatedly, her surprise growing even greater.
"The Lord of the Universe, no wonder he was able to create the fifty-third school!" Liang Wei thought to herself.
Chu Yang's smile faded, and he said, "I'm going back to the virtual universe to cultivate in seclusion. I also have some new insights from this lecture, which I need to digest properly."
"Okay!" Liang Wei nodded. "You go ahead, I need to go back and cultivate too."
After leaving Chaos City, Chu Yang went directly back to his cultivation residence at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company.
In fact, Chu Yang also has a fixed residence in Chaos City, but it is inconvenient to transport supplies. Now, a large number of Zerg corpses are being sent over every day, and Takina is also desperately trying to breed new Dut Zerg warriors.
He sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, closed his eyes, and began to organize his thoughts on the sermon.
The laws of time are as vast as the sea and as deep as an abyss.
During the explanation, Chu Yang's understanding of the "One Beginning" school became more thorough. He created this school on a whim, but after a thousand years of preaching, Chu Yang found that his understanding of the laws was constantly being refined and sublimated.
More importantly, it can accelerate his understanding of the path of fusion of the four laws of metal, water, earth, and wood!
However, Chu Yang also realized that although the "One Beginning" school was powerful, it was extremely difficult to understand.
Those who had been granted the title of King and Immortal were completely bewildered, as if they were listening to a foreign language. They would probably go back and spread rumors about his shortcomings everywhere.
It's like using university textbooks to teach middle school or even elementary school students in schools on Earth—how many of them would actually learn it?
"From now on, we'll focus on the five profound mysteries of spatial laws, and mainly teach the laws of time! Once they've grasped some of their meaning, we'll consider passing on the laws of the Golden Time Fusion!"
Chu Yang pondered how to get more cultivators to join his school of thought.
The quality of an army is more important than its quantity. Cultivating just one cosmic overlord is equivalent to cultivating a hundred cosmic venerables, or even tens of thousands of invincible kings.
Just as he was pondering this, Chu Yang suddenly received an email from a senior executive of Virtual Universe Company.
The email was simple, inviting him to the headquarters of Hongmeng in the virtual universe to discuss some "important matters".
"Important matter? What is it? Why are you being so secretive?"
Chu Yang had some reservations, but he accepted the invitation nonetheless.
The Hongmeng is the largest alliance of mankind. Similar organizations exist among the demon race and the insect race. The demon race has the Demon Alliance, and the insect race has the Insect Alliance.
These alliances are all formed by a dominant race and countless vassal races.
This is a virtual universe, an exclusive dimension for the Hongmeng headquarters. Only those who have reached the King level can enter this place.
Once he arrived here, Chu Yang finally understood what the so-called "important matters" were.
It turned out that his two sermons in Chaos City had caused the "One Beginning" school's influence to expand rapidly, attracting the attention of many powerful individuals.
In particular, after those few cosmic venerables returned and gave their brief account, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
The executives of Virtual Universe Company realized the enormous potential of the "One Beginning" school and decided to make it one of the key cultivation systems supported by the company, preparing to have Chu Yang expand this school.
In the virtual universe, on the exclusive plane of the Hongmeng headquarters, Chu Yang looked around at a magnificent hall. He saw that it was resplendent in gold and had a majestic presence, which was even more luxurious than the ancient architectural style of Chaos City.
In the center of the hall sat several figures with unfathomable auras; they were the high-ranking executives of the Virtual Universe Company, each of them a being at the level of a Universe Lord.
The Lord of Chaos City was among them.
The atmosphere in the huge conference hall was solemn and respectful.
Nearly ten cosmic lords sat high above, their eyes fixed intently on Chu Yang.
Below them were hundreds of Venerables or Universe Overlords.
These powerful individuals are at least five-star members of the Hongmeng Alliance!
Chu Yang checked his level and found that it was actually seven stars!
"Venerable One of Ten Thousand Laws, please!"
The Lord of Chaos City nodded slightly, gesturing for Chu Yang to step forward.
Chu Yang walked to the center of the main hall and bowed slightly to the cosmic lords at the head of the table.
"Venerable One of All Laws!"
An elderly man in white robes in the center spoke slowly, his voice booming like a great bell, "We have come to understand your 'One Beginning' school of thought, and its potential is extraordinary. I wonder if Your Excellency would be willing to promote this school and benefit our human race?"
This person is the actual manager of the Giant Axe Arena, the master of virtual gold.
Chu Yang cupped his hands in greeting and said, "It is my honor to be able to contribute my meager strength to the human race. However..."
"But what? Do you know that all the universe lords of our human race have left behind their own schools of thought and traditions? This is a great achievement that benefits all of humanity!"
Another universe master in the Giant Axe Arena, Lord Lanzang, frowned and looked at Chu Yang.
"Gentlemen, don't be fooled by the fact that I already have several Venerables under my command. If they follow my path, the future may be very difficult. Those who could have become cosmic overlords might now only reach the level of cosmic Venerable!"
Chu Yang's words immediately stunned everyone present.
The rather stout, bald-headed Lord Peng asked, "Could you explain in detail the unique characteristics of your Primordial School?"
"Gentlemen, the core of my 'One Beginning' school lies in the fusion of the two fundamental laws of metal and time."
Chu Yang spoke calmly, but his tone was firm and resounding, echoing throughout the hall.
Upon hearing this, the hall fell completely silent.
Hundreds of venerable beings and cosmic overlords looked at each other, their eyes filled with doubt.
The fusion of gold and time? This is a path no one has ever tried before!
Lord Lanzang frowned and said in a deep voice, "The fusion of Gold and Time? Venerable Wanfa, do you know what this means? The laws of time are already infinitely mysterious; to fuse them with the fundamental laws of gold would only make things more difficult!"
Chu Yang smiled slightly and said, "Difficult, of course it is very difficult. Let me put it this way, my disciples may initially grasp the laws of time, but as their understanding deepens, they will be more and more profoundly influenced by the laws of metal."
In the later stages, the fusion of the two laws becomes exceptionally difficult, requiring hundreds or even thousands of times more effort than ordinary people. Furthermore, the final achievement is unpredictable and may limit their ultimate potential; those who originally had the opportunity to become cosmic overlords might ultimately only reach the level of cosmic venerables.
Chu Yang's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples everywhere. The powerful figures present began to whisper and discuss among themselves.
"So that's how it is! No wonder Venerable Wanfa's disciple has progressed so rapidly; it turns out he was forcing growth in the early stages! He's gone astray!"
"Yes, fusing two different systems of laws will inevitably be incredibly difficult in the later stages; the risk is too great!"
"If I choose this path, wouldn't I be gambling with my future?"
……
The lords of the universe also fell into deep thought.
The fusion of the principles of metal and time is indeed an unusual path.
Initially, progress seemed rapid, but in reality, it was overdrawing on potential.
Later on, cultivators will find this path arduous. At that point, they will either have to give up and start over, or they will have no choice but to grit their teeth and keep going.
The Lord of Illusory Gold pondered for a moment, then asked, "Venerable One of Ten Thousand Laws, since you know how difficult this path is, why did you still create this school?"
As is widely known, the Lord of the Universe is one who has comprehended the laws of spacetime and at least one corresponding lower-level fundamental law; or one who has comprehended and integrated a lower-level law with its corresponding higher-level law.
Only after reaching the level of a true god, the strongest being in the universe, did the opposing laws begin to merge.
This is equivalent to walking the path of the true god ahead of time; how could it not be difficult?
There is a huge chasm between the Venerable One and the True God, and that chasm is the Lord of the Universe!
Chu Yang looked at the Lord of Void Gold, a mysterious smile playing on his lips: "Because this path, though difficult, holds boundless potential! Once the Law of Gold and the Law of Time are completely fused, unimaginable power will erupt! At that time, this school will ultimately reach its peak, and even the strongest beings in the universe will not be the end!"
These words caused silence to fall over the hall once again.
The powerful figures present held their breath, staring at Chu Yang in disbelief.
How dare an immortal claim that he wants to walk the path of surpassing the strongest?
crazy!
That's insane!
"Madman! A complete madman!" Lord Lan Cang roared, pointing at Chu Yang's nose and cursing, "You, an Immortal, dare to presume to surpass the strongest in the universe? You're utterly ignorant of your own limitations!"
Chu Yang's expression remained unchanged, still bearing a faint smile: "Lord of Lan Cang, I am not speaking recklessly. My path, though difficult, will be far more powerful than you can imagine once I succeed."
Rather than creating a new school of thought, I'd say I'm pioneering a completely new path, a path leading to a higher realm! Of course, the Metal fusion law alone isn't enough; there are also Wood, Water, and Earth fusion laws to follow!
The Lord of Chaos City was also stunned by Chu Yang's words. He never expected that his junior brother would have such great ambitions!
Those cosmic venerables may not understand the significance of surpassing true gods, but how could the Lord of Chaos City not know?
Once you break through to the True God realm, you can transcend reincarnation and become an eternally indestructible holy land!
"Beyond the strongest in the universe?"
A cosmic lord sneered, "Venerable One of Ten Thousand Laws, you have quite the air! Do you even know what the strongest in the universe represents?" (End of Chapter)
