Hearing the familiar voice echo beside him, Bai Yue smiled faintly. With a flash of divine power, his figure vanished from the void and reappeared at the entrance of the grand palace.
He straightened his robes and stepped inside without hesitation.
Before ascending to True God, Primordial Chaos City Lord had long been stationed in the Primitive Mystical Region. Through countless arrangements laid down over endless years, his control over this core region of the Human Race had reached an astonishing level.
Now that he had broken through to True God, even though he had yet to fully refine and elevate his techniques, his perception alone was enough to encompass every fluctuation within the region.
Thus, the moment Bai Yue arrived—without deliberately concealing his aura—Primordial Chaos True God sensed him.
Not only that.
He also sensed something far more startling.
The divine-body aura radiating from Bai Yue carried a pressure that Primordial Chaos had never encountered before among existences below True God.
Even before his own breakthrough, if one judged purely by divine body strength, he would have been slightly inferior.
That realization alone was enough to make his heart stir.
"Bai Yue?"
As Bai Yue entered the main hall, a Universe Lord exclaimed in surprise.
A moment earlier, Primordial Chaos True God's sudden pause, his knowing smile, and his words about "another reason to celebrate" had already aroused everyone's curiosity. All eyes had turned toward the hall entrance, following his gaze.
Yet no one expected this.
The one who walked in was the Human Race's most dazzling junior—
the peerless genius who had risen like a comet.
The atmosphere shifted instantly.
Every Universe Lord present had long been paying attention to Bai Yue. His terrifying growth rate and heaven-defying inheritances were no secret. As long as he did not fall midway, everyone believed it was only a matter of time before he would join their ranks and become another pillar of the Human Race.
That "time," however, was assumed to be countless eras in the future.
After all, which of them had not endured immeasurable years of cultivation, life-and-death trials, and bitter struggles to reach this realm?
So when Bai Yue appeared now, no one even considered the possibility that he had already broken through.
They assumed he had come to contribute another inheritance… or perhaps another supreme treasure.
Until Great Axe Founder suddenly spoke.
"This… this aura—" his eyes widened.
"You've broken through to Universe Lord?!"
"Whoosh!"
The hall fell deathly silent.
Bai Yue did not deny it. He merely nodded calmly.
The silence shattered in the next instant.
"How long has he cultivated? Three thousand years? Four thousand?"
"This is absurd!"
"Is the inheritance he obtained really that terrifying?!"
The commotion spread like wildfire.
Bai Yue ignored the uproar and walked straight toward Primordial Chaos True God. He bowed slightly, his expression sincere.
"Congratulations, Teacher, on becoming a True God and fulfilling your long-cherished wish."
"Haha!" Primordial Chaos True God laughed heartily.
"And congratulations to you as well. I never expected you to step into the Universe Lord realm so quickly. Come—sit here."
A seat silently appeared beside Youhou Lord, adjacent to the core Universe Lords of the Virtual Universe Corporation lineage.
Primordial Chaos True God raised his wine cup and spoke with clear satisfaction.
"Today is a double blessing for our Human Race. I, Chaos, have finally broken through to True God… and my disciple Bai Yue has become a Universe Lord, another great pillar of our race. Come—let us drink!"
He drank first.
The Human Race's highest echelon followed, raising their cups in unison.
After the wine, Primordial Chaos True God personally began introductions.
"This is Great Axe Founder—you've met before."
Bai Yue smiled and nodded.
"Our Human Race previously had eighteen Universe Lords, fifteen publicly known. With my breakthrough, that number temporarily became seventeen. Now, with you, Bai Yue, it returns to eighteen."
He continued calmly.
"These four are of my Virtual Universe Corporation lineage:
Darkness Master, Ice Peak Master, Dragon Walker Master, and Darkness Master's disciple—Youhou Lord. With your breakthrough, our lineage still holds five Universe Lords."
Bai Yue sighed theatrically. "I didn't expect our lineage to be this strong."
"Haha!" Youhou Lord laughed loudly, glancing provocatively toward the Universe Lords of the Giant Axe Fighting Arena.
For ages, the Virtual Universe Corporation and the Giant Axe Fighting Arena had competed for the title of strongest lineage. With Origin Ancestor suppressed, the balance had been delicate.
Now?
With Chaos True God and Lord of Hunyuan standing together, the outcome was no longer in doubt.
Primordial Chaos True God then swept his gaze across the hall.
"Bai Yue's survival ability is likely among the very best here."
"Oh?" Darkness Master looked over.
"He possesses a talented clone," Primordial Chaos continued evenly,
"and one of his clones has a Life form comparable to the Lord of the Nine Nethers."
The hall stirred again.
Bai Yue responded modestly, "It was thanks to Teacher's support that I had the chance to nurture it."
This was not false humility—
status in the universe was earned through strength.
"Then tell us," Peng Gong Master asked curiously,
"how large is your divine-body ocean?"
"Just over one hundred billion kilometers in diameter," Bai Yue replied calmly.
The hall froze.
"Over… one hundred billion?"
"My heavens…"
"Inconceivable…"
Even seasoned Universe Lords felt their scalps tingle.
Divine bodies exceeding a billion kilometers were already considered monstrous. An ocean divine body exceeding one hundred billion kilometers?
Its recovery speed alone would surpass the rate at which enemies could possibly exhaust it.
Darkness Master finally smiled.
"With that, you can traverse the universe freely."
Primordial Chaos True God nodded in satisfaction.
"Now, Bai Yue—have you decided on your Universe Lord title?"
Bai Yue paused briefly, then spoke with clarity.
"Lord of Hunyuan."
The name echoed softly through the hall.
Lord of Hunyuan.
