"An unexpected pleasant surprise…"
Ender's face lit up with joy. He thought, "My teacher promised that as long as I kill a Marquis-level Immortal, he will bestow the Frost Armor upon me in advance."
"My base strength, under the dual amplification of the Yuan Heavy Ru Yi Body and Blood River Power, has already approached 70,000 times the power of a Peak World Master, surpassing an ordinary High Stage King-Level Immortal."
"And my attack secret technique, Eternal Sky, has just been elevated to the Pinnacle Immortal Secret Technique level, which can barely be considered High Stage King-Level."
"Furthermore, with my creation of an Immortal-level Pinnacle attack secret technique, Void Spear can also be re-forged accordingly, and will then reach the level of an eighth-tier weapon used by a King-level Immortal."
He thought to himself, "Calculated this way, my base strength, attack secret technique, or the soon-to-be-updated weapon, etc., have reached or are about to reach the King-level Immortal."
"Especially for Soul Will defense, I have the Soul-type Arcana treasure."
"Although this Arcana treasure has only activated its basic form, even the basic form is equivalent to an ordinary Soul-type Arcana treasure."
"An ordinary Soul-type Arcana treasure, coupled with my will that is no weaker than an ordinary Military Lord Immortal, can make me fearless of any Soul attack below a Universe Venerable."
Thinking of this, Ender smiled slightly, "Those so-called Pinnacle Stage King-Level or ultimate level Soul Masters will appear very powerless against a 'monster' like me who possesses a Soul-type Arcana treasure."
"My weaknesses are in defense and speed. As for speed, I have the seventh-tier psychic flying weapon, Shadow Shuttle, which can barely compensate for some of my weaknesses in speed."
"Thus, my true weakness is defense!"
Ender secretly thought, "I have seventh-tier and even eighth-tier battle armor protecting me, and the Cloud Vine battle armor reduces some impact, allowing me to directly fight ordinary Immortals without pressure."
"But if I face a King-level Immortal, my defense won't be enough."
He still remembered that when fighting the Mantis-Sarin team, those Mechanical Puppets' combined attacks could injure him, and those Mechanical Puppets' combined attacks were roughly equivalent to a High Stage Marquis-level attack power.
Just the attack power at the High Stage Marquis-level, after being reduced layer by layer, could injure him. So, it would be too easy for a King-level Immortal to injure him, and killing him might not even be too difficult.
"If I can obtain the Frost Armor in advance, then the final piece of the puzzle to rival a King-level Immortal will be complete!"
Ender was first fervent in his heart, then calmed down slightly, thinking, "Marquis-level Immortals are difficult to kill. My target cannot be the Marquis-level Immortals of the three Pinnacle races."
Ordinary Military Lord Immortals are easy to kill, but once they reach the Marquis-level Immortal stage, the difficulty of killing them increases by thousands or tens of thousands of times.
Especially the Marquis-level Immortals of the four Pinnacle races in the Extraterritorial Battlefield, they are notoriously difficult to kill.
For example, the wealth possessed by Human Race Marquis-level Immortals is far beyond what Marquis-level Immortals from ordinary or weak races can compare to.
Human Marquis-level Immortals who can operate in the Extraterritorial Battlefield almost all have the assistance of Immortal plant life. When they encounter danger, they release the Immortal plant life to block enemies, and may even let the Immortal plant life self-destruct part of its divine body.
And once the enemy is blocked, the Marquis-level Immortal will immediately accelerate, increasing his flying speed to near light speed.
At near light speed, unless it is a Pinnacle Stage King-Level ultimate Immortal who has comprehended profound Law mysteries like Space Teleportation or Time Pause, an ordinary King-level Immortal cannot catch up.
Therefore, if he wants to kill a Marquis-level Immortal at present, he can only choose weaker Marquis-level Immortals from ordinary or weak races, not the three Pinnacle races.
"Before I go to kill a Marquis-level Immortal, I still need to re-forge Void Spear, and I can also try to add some secret patterns to Shadow Shuttle."
After setting his goal, Ender left the Virtual Universe, and his consciousness returned to the real world.
...
Ganwu Continent, Molten Rock Island, Guyu Community Villa.
Nineteen sat in the garden pavilion, quietly waiting for his eldest brother Eric to arrive.
More than 1,700 years had passed since he entered the Huge Axe Dojo Core Region through the Pinnacle Genius Battle.
And he had also entered the God Origin Secret Realm from the Dojo Secret Realm, and was now working hard to secure a spot in the Primal Ruins Secret Realm. He had just barely missed getting in during the last Secret Realm competition.
"I wonder how Second Uncle and Thirteen are doing? How are they faring in the Dry Witch Secret Realm?"
Nineteen picked up the fruit wine on the table and took a sip. "Although they have returned to the Family a few times in the Virtual Universe after entering the Dry Witch Secret Realm, I have never met them."
"The same goes for Elder Brother Eleven. He hasn't returned since the Genius Battle ended, and we've only communicated a few times via email."
"Speaking of which, I really have to thank Elder Brother Eleven." Nineteen murmured softly, "If it weren't for Elder Brother Eleven's reminder, my eldest brother and I would have no idea that there was such a Heaven-Defying Opportunity in the Cultivation world."
Following Ender's reminder, Nineteen and his elder brother Eric had both visited the Blood River World once. At first, they were confused as to why they were being asked to come to the Blood River World.
But when they learned about the mystery and uniqueness of the Blood River Crystal from the natives, and their Cultivation task required them to obtain Blood River Crystal, they immediately understood that Blood River Crystal was definitely a treasure.
After truly Fusing the Blood River Crystal, the two of them were incredibly shocked that there was actually a treasure in the world that could enhance Law affinity, and they even had the Opportunity to obtain and use such a treasure!
The two of them stayed in the Blood River World for hundreds of years. Only after Fusing three Blood River Crystal and becoming Blood Warriors did they each obtain a certain amount of Blood River Crystal and leave.
"If I hadn't Fused three Blood River Crystal and become a Blood Warrior, my Law comprehension would definitely not have reached its current level."
Nineteen secretly thought, "Blood River Crystal is a true treasure, a treasure that even the Human Race high-level attaches great importance to."
"Even the existence of Blood River Crystal cannot be spoken of, and now even the name of the Blood River World is not mentioned."
Because all three Ender brothers had entered the Blood River World, if only two had entered, it could still be called a coincidence.
But all three had entered, and the latter two had even gone at the same time, which raised the alert of the Human high-level.
Therefore, a stricter gag order was implemented for new Geniuses who had entered the Blood River World, and now even the name of the Blood River World is not mentioned.
"Fortunately, my eldest brother and I have both been to the Blood River World, otherwise…"
Thinking of this, Nineteen shook his head slightly.
If he hadn't gone to the Blood River World, he would probably not have entered the God Origin Secret Realm yet, and would still be striving to enter the God Origin Secret Realm.
And his eldest brother would definitely be struggling in the Dojo Secret Realm, with no hope of entering the God Origin Secret Realm at all.
Sitting in the pavilion.
Nineteen waited for a long time, but his eldest brother Eric still hadn't arrived.
"What's going on with Eldest Brother?"
He felt a little puzzled. His eldest brother, who was always punctual, was so late and hadn't arrived. It was too strange.
After a while longer, the late Eric finally arrived.
"Nineteen, you've been waiting for a long time, haven't you?"
Eric came to the garden pavilion and sat opposite Nineteen.
Nineteen asked, "Eldest Brother, why are you so late?"
Eric took a sip of fruit wine and said with a smile, "You know, it's rare to have a Universe Venerable giving a lecture this time, so of course, I had to go listen." Nineteen nodded slightly. He was also in the God Origin Secret Realm and knew about this.
It was just that he comprehended the Time Law, so he didn't go to listen to the Universe Venerable's lecture.
"Later, Meng Chaluo got entangled with me. He wanted to challenge me to a fight, clearly wanting to humiliate me."
Eric smiled and said, "He was badly humiliated by you in the last Secret Realm competition. For the past few decades, he's been wanting to humiliate me to vent his anger, and of course, I don't give him the Opportunity."
As soon as he thought of Meng Chaluo's twisted expression, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
He still remembered the grudge of being humiliated back then. If his strength wasn't enough, he would have wanted to retaliate himself.
"Meng Chaluo…"
Nineteen frowned upon hearing this. "That guy is mentally ill, Eldest Brother, don't bother with him."
"I know, that guy…"
Eric shook his head. Besides being mentally ill, he didn't know how else to describe the other party.
When he first entered the God Origin Secret Realm, he didn't know much about the Huge Axe Dojo's Core Region intelligence. Besides being provoked into accepting Meng Chaluo's challenge and being humiliated, he was also humiliated by him during the Secret Realm competition.
Later, he fell into the Dojo Secret Realm. After hundreds of years of struggling in the Dojo Secret Realm, he learned the rules and became smart.
Upon returning to the God Origin Secret Realm, when he encountered Meng Chaluo in the Secret Realm competition, he would directly choose to surrender, not giving the other party a chance to humiliate him.
And Nineteen, knowing about his conflict with Meng Chaluo, first challenged and humiliated him once, and then humiliated him multiple times in the Secret Realm competition.
This caused Meng Chaluo, who had been humiliated multiple times, to become so enraged and resentful that he was almost insane. He would occasionally challenge Eric to a fight, wanting to vent his anger by humiliating the latter.
"That Meng Chaluo, relying on his Genius father who is a Disciple of a being beyond a Universe Venerable, and having Cultivated for tens of thousands of years, he can only act arrogantly in the God Origin Secret Realm."
Nineteen said disdainfully, "But when he encounters a true Genius, his Law comprehension, which only reached the fifth level of the Tongtian Bridge after tens of thousands of years of Cultivation, is only fit to be humiliated!"
Eric nodded slightly, agreeing with Nineteen's words.
The Universe Level quota for the Primal Ruins Secret Realm is 30 people, and the Geniuses inside have at least reached the sixth level of the Tongtian Bridge in Law comprehension, and are extremely close to the seventh level of the Tongtian Bridge.
Meng Chaluo had Cultivated for tens of thousands of years, and his Law comprehension had only reached the fifth level of the Tongtian Bridge, so he had no qualification to compete for a spot in the Primal Ruins Secret Realm.
And his younger brother Nineteen's Law comprehension had reached the third level of the Tongtian Bridge when Primal Chaos City thirty ended. He was exceptionally accepted as a Personal Disciple by King Aurora even before completing the test.
Now, Nineteen's Law comprehension has even reached the sixth level of the Tongtian Bridge, so it's not difficult to humiliate Meng Chaluo, whose Law comprehension is at the fifth level of the Tongtian Bridge.
"Nineteen, don't provoke that Meng Chaluo anymore in the future."
Eric advised, "That guy is not normal in the head. He might do something that breaks the rules."
"Indeed, people with mental problems might really do foolish things."
Nineteen nodded upon hearing this, "Next time in the Secret Realm competition, I will directly defeat him, and I won't humiliate him anymore."
"That's not necessary." Eric shook his head slightly and said, "Although Meng Chaluo has mental issues, he won't be foolish enough to willingly be humiliated. I estimate that if he encounters you in the next Secret Realm competition, he will directly surrender."
"That's true." Nineteen nodded slightly, then asked, "Eldest Brother, how is your progress in Space Law?"
Eric sighed, "Still the same. Although there's that secret pattern blessing, my affinity talent in Space Law is too poor. Even if my affinity has doubled, my progress is still slow."
Compared to his Fire Law talent, his talent in Space Law was much weaker.
Not to mention compared to Ender, even Nineteen's talent in Time Law was enough to throw him ten streets behind.
He even suspected whether his Space Law talent was an Attached of his Fire Law talent, which led to his comprehension progress being infuriatingly slow.
"Eldest Brother, since your Space Law progress is slow, then you should still focus on comprehending the Fire Law."
Nineteen heard this and gently advised, "Wait until the World Master Level, which is the best period for comprehending Laws, to properly comprehend Space Law."
"I think so too."
Eric forced a smile, but he knew in his heart that his Space Law talent was very poor, and it probably wouldn't improve much even at the World Master Level.
It's like 1 times 10,000 and 100 times 10,000; both are multiplied by ten thousand, but there's still a hundredfold difference.
Seeing his eldest brother's smile, Nineteen felt a little guilty. He shouldn't have brought up the matter of Space Law comprehension.
For a moment, the pavilion fell silent, and neither of them spoke anymore.
Eric changed the subject and said, "Nineteen, you should be confident about entering the Primal Ruins Secret Realm in your next Secret Realm competition, right?"
"I am confident, I just fear that there will be competitors who hide their strength or have a major Breakthrough in Law comprehension."
Nineteen said softly, "The Universe Level Primal Ruins Secret Realm has 30 spots, but only 3 spots are released for competition."
"Besides the top 10 in the God Origin Secret Realm's Reincarnation Battle, I also have to compete with the bottom 3 in the Primal Ruins Secret Realm's Reincarnation Battle. The difficulty is not small."
Eric nodded encouragingly, "With your talent, Nineteen, even if you don't enter the Primal Ruins Secret Realm next time, you definitely will in the future!"
Since he had no hope of entering the Primal Ruins Secret Realm, he placed his hopes on Nineteen, hoping that Nineteen would preferably enter the Primal Ruins Secret Realm and gain a firm foothold, and then strive for the Huge Axe Secret Realm, which offered the best treatment.
The two chatted. Although they were both in the God Origin Secret Realm, they could only meet occasionally in the Virtual Universe because they had to go to the Cultivation mission world to complete Cultivation missions.
...
When his eldest brother Eric and Nineteen were chatting in the Virtual Universe.
Huge Axe Dojo, God Origin Secret Realm Manor.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Those playthings, which were worth hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of universe coin in the outside world and were regarded as treasures, were now being destroyed by Gene Energy attacks.
The entire room was a mess!
"Bastard! You bastard!!!"
A man in a white robe had a ferocious expression, roaring furiously, "Damn Eric Ron Royce, how dare he mock me for being humiliated!"
Recalling the pain and humiliation of being humiliated in the Virtual Universe, he was extremely angry, "Damn Arthur Royce, he actually humiliated me four times! I'm going to kill him! Kill him!!!"
"Royce! Everyone in the Royce Family should die!"
As the white-robed man roared in anger, venting the rage in his heart.
Suddenly, a call request came in…
