The Heaven-Piercing Bridge extends endlessly to the horizon, shrouded in a misty white fog, with turbulent seas below.
At the moment Luo Feng stepped into the Nine Heavens Heaven-Piercing Bridge, Babata’s voice echoed in his mind: “Luo Feng, just received an email from the Virtual Universe Company.”
“What’s it about?” Luo Feng asked quickly.
“It’s about the point reward rules,” Babata explained.
“Points?”
Standing atop the Celestial Span, Luo Feng couldn’t suppress his exhilaration. Within the Virtual Universe Corporation lay treasures beyond measure—a fifth-tier psionic armament valued at approximately 10 merit points, life-fruits ripe for unrestricted exchange. Such opulence was dizzying, yet every transaction demanded the currency of merit. Though one might hoard mountains of wealth, only merit points held sway within the Virtual Universe’s grand bazaar.
“There are countless paths to amass glorious points.”
“Currently in Chaos City, there’s only one way to earn points—by ‘conquering the Heaven-Piercing Bridge,'” Babata continued. “The Nine Heavens Heaven-Piercing Bridge consists of a total of 27 levels!”
“Clearing the first stage grants you 100 points.”
“Clearing the second tier grants you an additional 200 points.”
Clearing the third tier grants you an additional 400 points.
“The rewards double each time, so the next levels grant 800, 1600, 3200 points, and so on…”
Luo Feng swiftly calculated in his mind and realized that clearing either the tenth or twentieth level would yield an astronomical amount of points.
However, clearing the 21st level would elevate one to the status of ‘Cosmic Sovereign,’ demonstrating the extraordinary difficulty of accumulating points.
Luo Feng, the message also states that you are newcomers who have just arrived in Chaos City. For young prodigies, the Virtual Universe Corporation has a special incentive rule—if you can conquer the Heaven-Piercing Bridge within 30 years in Chaos City, the point reward will be multiplied tenfold. That means…”
“Within these 30 years, clearing the first trial shall grant thee 1000 goldmarks, conquering the second shall bestow another 2000 goldmarks… and thus the bounty grows! This tenfold boon is bestowed solely upon greenhorns setting foot in the City of Chaos for the first time. Shouldst thou return to these accursed streets hereafter, this privilege shall be forever lost to thee.”
Luo Feng nodded.
Originally, the rewards for each level were 100, 200 points…
Now it’s 1000, 2000 points…
This was a special reward for the younger generation. However, precisely because they were young, most had only just begun to grasp the fundamental laws of the universe. Didn’t the supervisor Bafen say earlier that out of the 1000 tested geniuses by the Virtual Universe Company, nearly 900 had already been tested, and except for Bolan, no one else had passed the first level!
Want to earn points?
It’s hard!
“Let’s go.” Luo Feng gazed at the Heaven-Piercing Bridge that stretched into the misty clouds, narrowed his eyes, and then shot forward like a streak of light.
…
In Chaos City.
Luo Feng and the other 11 were among the later ones to be tested. Many geniuses like Bolan, Galesi, Aichen, and others had already completed their tests and quickly learned a lot about Chaos City.
“There are several ways to become a permanent resident of Chaos City, but the most impressive one is to pass the eighteenth level of the Heaven-Piercing Bridge! Anyone who can pass the eighteenth level is an invincible existence among immortals, and they all have the qualification to establish their sects in Chaos City!” Jiang Mo exclaimed.
“The 52 schools indeed have many sects,” Qianshui nodded slightly.
“Establishing a sect is a great achievement,” Jiang Mo said, “and they all have high achievements in their respective schools. However, to enter these sects to listen to the lectures of these powerful individuals, one must at least pass the third level.”
Chaos City prohibits fighting.
It is a holy land for the cultivation of the human race in the entire universe. There are 52 major schools here, and each school has many strong individuals who have created sects. And those who have the qualification from the City Lord’s Mansion to create a sect, the ‘Sect Leader,’ must at least be able to pass the eighteenth level!
These sect leaders are purely there to give lectures.
Their disciples come to attend the lectures.
To have the qualification to attend the lectures, one must be able to pass the first three levels of the Heaven-Piercing Bridge. If one hasn’t even passed the first three levels, they don’t have the qualification to attend the lectures.
“The 52 Chaos Tablets vary in depth,” Jiang Mo sighed, “which results in the Heaven-Piercing Bridges having different numbers of levels. Some Heaven-Piercing Bridges have only 21 levels, some have 24 levels, some have 27 levels, and the highest has 32 levels! Among these 52 Chaos Tablets, only the ‘Axe Chaos Tablet’ has a Heaven-Piercing Bridge with 32 levels.”
The number of levels in the Heaven-Piercing Bridge reflects, to some extent, the depth of the Chaos Tablets.
Because in all the Heaven-Piercing Bridges, anyone who can pass the 21st level can become a Cosmic King.
“It’s not necessarily better the deeper it is,” Qianshui slowly shook his head, “how difficult it is to produce a Cosmic King! Although the 52 Chaos Tablets vary in depth, it is rare for even one out of countless talented individuals to reach the 21st level. If one hasn’t even passed the 21st level, is there any meaning in the layers after that for the ‘Axe Chaos Tablet’?”
“Right,” Jiang Mo nodded.
…
Among the 52 Chaos Tablets, the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Tablet’ is considered one of the most profound, ranking within the top five.
Of course, before becoming a ‘Cosmic King,’ discussing which Chaos Tablet is more profound is meaningless. For example, the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Tablet’ has nine images, especially the last three, which Luo Feng couldn’t feel anything about. They were simply too inexplicable, and he couldn’t sense even a trace of the fundamental law.
…
In Chaos City, inside a nine-story tower.
Most of Chaos City consists of identical cultivation residences, while some special buildings represent a special status.
On the seventh floor of the nine-story tower.
A woman wrapped in black gauze sat cross-legged on the ground. Her lower body was a giant snake tail, coiled and resting on the floor. Her face was indistinct and unrecognizable, but her eyes were as bright as stars, seemingly containing a dazzling galaxy that could mesmerize anyone.
“You’ve come,” a hoarse voice came from the woman with the snake tail.
“Haha.”
A muscular ape-like man wearing golden battle armor and with golden fur on his face appeared out of nowhere inside the tower and laughed heartily, “Wuni, you are also one of the sect leaders who founded a sect in our Nine Heavens School. No matter what, you should open your doors, give lectures, and guide the younger generation.”
The woman with the snake tail spoke in a hoarse voice, “Zhenyan King, among the many sect leaders of the Nine Heavens School, you are the strongest. With you giving lectures, there’s no need for me to give lectures.”
“Haha…” The muscular ape man laughed loudly, “You and I have cultivated for countless eons. Buried in cultivation is no longer useful. Occasionally, enlightenment is effective. I think you should not always stay in your Nine Heavens Tower. When you built the Nine Heavens Tower, you said you would understand all nine images and reach the top of the Nine Heavens Tower. How come the Black Mist King has become so low-key now?”
Immortal beings have different statuses.
Ordinary immortals can become army leaders, commanding an army.
Stronger ones can be ennobled as marquises or kings. Like ‘Zhenyan King’ and ‘Black Mist King’, they are considered super beings among immortals, founding sects and giving lectures to the younger generation.
The ‘Nine Heavens Tower’ is also famous in Chaos City because when the Black Mist King built the Nine Heavens Tower, she said that one should enter the corresponding floor according to which image they were studying… Obviously, she was now studying the seventh image of the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Tablet’, so she stayed on the seventh floor of the Nine Heavens Tower.
“Let’s go. Among the latest batch of geniuses in my Virtual Universe Company, 12 have chosen the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Tablet’. let’s see if there are any promising talents. No matter what, I am the Zhenyan King of the Virtual Universe Company!” the muscular ape man smiled.
“You are with the Virtual Universe Company, and I am with the Giant Axe Fighting Arena. Why should I go with you?” the woman with the snake tail said indifferently.
“You really won’t give me face?” the muscular ape man glared.
Although the two belonged to different factions, their friendship was indeed deep. They both founded sects in Chaos City and used to exchange insights on the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Tablet’ together. Once, a discussion and debate on the insights of the laws lasted for 18 epochs, which became a beautiful story in Chaos City.
That exchange and debate allowed both of them to break through another level.
“Let’s go,” the woman with the snake tail glanced at the ape man.
“Haha,” the muscular ape man laughed.
…
In the Virtual Universe Heaven-Piercing Bridge dimension.
Two figures appeared out of nowhere on the island, the ape man and the woman with the snake tail. The pressure from their pure wills made people feel as if they were facing the endless stars.
“Zhenyan King, Black Mist King,” the supervisor Bafen respectfully saluted.
“Have the tests for my younglings in the Nine Heavens lineage finished?” the ape man looked at the supervisor. Supervisor Bafen respectfully said, “There are a total of 12 people who chose the ‘Nine Heavens Chaos Tablet’ this time. 11 of them have just finished their tests. Now it’s the last one, and also the most promising one among the 12, named Luo Feng.”
“The most promising one?” the ape man raised his golden eyebrows.
“Yes, all 11 of the previous ones failed and couldn’t pass the first level,” supervisor Bafen said.
“Failure is not a big deal,” the ape man smiled, “some are defeated instantly, some struggle for a while before failing, and some almost win. This also represents the difference in strength. You should show me the videos of the 11 people’s battles through the Heaven-Piercing Bridge, and then show me Luo Feng’s battle video later.”
“Yes,” supervisor Bafen immediately brought up 11 videos.
As a supervisor, Bafen had many tasks, and of course, he had to be prepared for the battle videos of those who pierced through the Heaven-Piercing Bridge.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Eleven screens appeared in front of the ape man, Zhenyan King. With great interest, he watched all eleven screens at the same time as the eleven battle videos began to play simultaneously.
“Ugh,” Zhenyan King touched his chin, pulled his golden beard, and puckered his lips.
…
At this moment, Luo Feng had also reached the end of the first level of the Nine Heavens Heaven-Piercing Bridge.
“Choose your opponent. You can choose a warrior, a mentalist controller, or a mentalist illusionist. Choose any opponent and defeat them to pass the first level of the Heaven-Piercing Bridge.” In front of Luo Feng, a large cloud of mist appeared, and a voice came from within the mist.
According to the information Luo Feng had received.
The mist would only dissipate after defeating the opponent, allowing one to proceed to a higher level of the Heaven-Piercing Bridge.
“I choose… the controller!” Luo Feng said solemnly.
Whoosh!
A mass of black liquid immediately flew out from the mist. In mid-air, the black liquid began to take shape, forming into a mysterious figure wearing a black mask. This mysterious figure stood on a dark cloud shuttle, with a dark golden long rod, ‘Yanshen Weapon,’ on his back. With a pair of cold eyes behind the black mask staring at Luo Feng, he spoke in a human voice: “The battle begins!”
