Chapter 21, The Final Arrival at Chaos City
The palace's first floor, though not large from the outside, only a few dozen square kilometers in size, is actually a vast, self-contained space, large enough to easily contain a star a million kilometers in size!
Ye Muxuan surveyed the main hall. The interior was not dark, but rather glowed with a soft light. The walls around the hall were made of an unknown black material with some intricate patterns.
After everyone entered the palace, a two-horned man in a purple robe appeared on the lawn in front of the main hall. With a wave of his hand, the palace floated up and shrank rapidly in size, finally landing in his hand in a perfect grasp.
The purple-robed man's gaze fell on the depths of the virtual universe company's headquarters continent. He gave a slight bow, and then his figure vanished in a flash.
While inside the palace, Ye Muxuan and the others could not sense the passage of time and space. However, at a certain moment, a sudden spatial fluctuation appeared, kicking all of them out.
The primordial universe, Chaos City.
On the empty street, a purple figure appeared, a black palace appearing in his hand. Then, a large number of people, numbering over a thousand, suddenly appeared on the street.
Ye Muxuan felt a spatial shift, and in the next instant, he appeared on the street. At that moment, from afar, an immortal dressed in black flew over.
On the rooftop not far away, many cultivators sitting cross-legged witnessed this scene.
"It's Receptionist Number 9."
"Those kids from the Genius Battle just came in; they must be from the extraterritorial battlefield!"
"Several people performed well in the Genius Battle hosted by the Virtual Universe Company this time. I wonder how the group from the Extraterrestrial Battlefield is doing. Are there any World Lords who have impressed us?"
"I don't know, I haven't paid attention to those little guys in the extraterritorial battlefield for a long time."
"I heard a while ago that there was a pretty good kid in the Blade Clan, and supposedly there were some spots available, but I don't know if he made it in this time."
"Some of the core members of the five major powers are now realm lords who came from the extraterritorial battlefield. I wonder how many of this batch will be able to get in."
"Even if there are world lords who perform well, they don't necessarily have to choose your Virtual Universe Company. My Giant Axe Arena is no different."
"What you're saying is true. There are geniuses at the eighteenth level in the Primal Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Secret Realm of the Giant Axe Arena, but what is our Universe Mercenary Alliance lacking? We also have a World Lord at the eighteenth level in our Glory Secret Realm."
"Anyway, there are only two seventeenth levels in my Cosmic Galaxy Bank's Black Hole Secret Realm this time, right?"
"It's alright, the Bloodstained Secret Realm of the world's number one bank next door also has a seventeenth level."
"..."
On the distant rooftops, groups of powerful figures chatted freely, exuding an imposing aura. They were mostly mid-to-high-level members of the five major powers, each with a strong sense of honor and belonging, and naturally, they showed no weakness in their conversation.
The list of geniuses below the Immortal level within the five major powers is not top secret information to these people. They are all core members of the five major powers and permanent residents of Chaos City. In terms of the Bridge to Heaven alone, even the weakest among them has passed the eighteenth level, and there are quite a few who have even passed the twentieth level! Therefore, they are all quite clear about the level of the strongest comprehension of laws among the current world lord geniuses of the five major powers.
Ye Muxuan steadied himself, his intuition screaming a warning!
His gaze swept across the area almost imperceptibly, noticing the groups of beings in the distance that exuded immense power, each possessing a treasure that was suffocating him.
Each and every one of them was far stronger than himself; in fact, he sensed that even the Demon Blade King was only of mid-level strength here. Furthermore, the powerful auras of dozens of strong individuals permeated this world without restraint. This was definitely beyond the Immortal realm; each of them possessed the pressure of a Venerable, and in Ye Muxuan's vague perception, some even seemed stronger than the purple-robed man from before.
Chaos City is a sacred cultivation ground for the human race. Within its walls, one can glimpse even the tip of the iceberg of humanity's profound power!
In the Chaotic Ruins, a pair of eyes as large as lakes pierced through time and space, sweeping over the thousands of powerful figures on the street. For a moment, his gaze lingered on a young man clad in black armor.
Beside him, a gentle-looking man in a white robe watched the scene with a smile.
After the purple-robed man released Ye Muxuan and his thousand-plus powerful warriors, the dark, three-tiered, pointed palace transformed into a stream of light and entered his body. Then, he took a step and disappeared.
"Welcome, everyone, to the Primordial Universe, Chaos City. I am the welcoming envoy of Chaos City." An immortal clad in black robes, with fine scales on his forehead, landed before the thousands of powerful figures. Looking at these unfamiliar faces, he smiled and said, "I will now greet you and explain the rules of Chaos City to you!"
"This city is called Chaos City, and its history is definitely longer than that of some of your cosmic nations. It is currently jointly governed by an alliance of five major forces: Virtual Universe Company, Giant Axe Arena, Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, Cosmic Galaxy Bank, and Cosmic First Bank."
Quiet!
The 1,501 powerful figures before them quietly watched the black-robed immortal.
"Follow me, everyone, let's talk as we walk." The black-robed immortal landed on the street, taking a step that covered tens of kilometers. Of course, the weakest behind him was a peak World Lord, so he could keep up with this speed. "Chaos City has existed for an incredibly long time. Among the powerful beings who have come to comprehend it, one great being after another has been born."
These 1,501 powerful individuals followed the black-robed immortal as they advanced, listening to his explanations while also taking in the similar-looking small buildings around them.
On the rooftops of the surrounding buildings, some people would occasionally glance at the newlyweds on the street below, but most of them ignored them, instead looking up to contemplate the cracks that appeared and disappeared above their heads.
That is the manifestation of the fundamental laws of the universe!
Time is extremely precious within Chaos City. Even a World Lord-level spot costs tens of thousands of Chaos Units at the auction, while an Immortal-level spot typically costs hundreds of millions of Chaos Units. Furthermore, even a World Lord, even one obtained through the extraterritorial battlefield, cannot stay in Chaos City indefinitely.
Therefore, every powerful individual who enters Chaos City cherishes every moment to comprehend the laws.
"Within Chaos City, there are many extraordinary beings." The black-robed envoy walked the streets, covering tens of kilometers with each step, followed by thousands of powerful figures. "Do not disturb them as they comprehend the laws. If you do, you will be sent out of the initial universe, ending your opportunity for comprehension!"
The group of people remained silent, nodding to themselves.

I haven't been able to find the original text for whether the first secret realm of the Giant Axe Arena is "Giant Axe Secret Realm" or "Divine Origin Secret Realm," so I'll use "Giant Axe Secret Realm" for now. If any expert finds the original text, please let me know. Thank you in advance.
