In the study of the manor in the Primal Secret Realm of Yu Xiang Mountain in the Virtual Universe.
Ender sat on the sofa, his eyes slightly narrowed in thought. "My path, have I strayed?"
Before him was a light screen, displaying short, universal cosmic text. This was the email from his teacher, Ice Summit Master.
He felt somewhat confused. "My path, where did I stray?"
The path Ice Summit Master referred to should be the path of Cultivation. However, as early as his thirty years in Primal Chaos City, he had already decided to follow the Beast God Path, and he was currently striving towards that goal in his Cultivation.
His current Cultivation results were significant; not only had his Beast God Artistic Conception improved, but he had also gained a faint understanding of the Wood-Space and Golden Space Fusion Laws. This indicated that his path was not wrong.
"With Luo Feng as my guiding light, how could I possibly stray on my Cultivation path?"
After much thought, Ender still couldn't quite understand why his teacher would say he had strayed. So, he stood up and said, "I'm going to see my teacher."
...
Ice Summit Master's exclusive space.
This was an eternal world of ice and snow, with howling cold winds and fluttering snowflakes.
Upon entering this space, Ender appeared at the summit of a snow-capped mountain, from where he could overlook the entire icy world.
At this moment, Ice Summit Master stood with his back to Ender, clad in ancient, blood-stained armor, a battle sword strapped to his back, his silver hair dancing in the cold wind.
Ender bowed respectfully and said, "Teacher."
"You still don't understand where you went wrong?" Ice Summit Master asked indifferently.
"Yes," Ender nodded. "This Disciple still doesn't understand."
Ice Summit Master turned around and asked faintly, "What Primal Chaos Tablet did you comprehend?"
"The Divine Tree Primal Chaos Tablet," Ender answered without hesitation.
"Then what is your Clone?" Ice Summit Master asked again.
"Gu Yu Ancient Tree." Ender's eyes narrowed slightly.
"And now, what are you doing?" Ice Summit Master said indifferently, "Comprehending the Gold Origin Law and the Golden Space Fusion Laws?"
Boom!
A thunderclap from a clear sky, a single word awakening one from a dream!
"Yes! What am I doing now...?"
Ice Summit Master's words left Ender stunned. "I have such a great advantage in comprehending the Wood-Space Fusion Laws, so why would I go and comprehend the Golden Space Fusion Laws, just to master the first chapter of Beast God Seven Kills?"
"When did I first get the idea to Cultivate Beast God Seven Kills?"
He recalled, "It was on the eve of my Breakthrough to Domain Master, when I thought of coming to the Laos World of the Gold Horn Race to comprehend the Sacred Tablet and the giant beast god statue."
"Why did I have such an idea? It was because of Luo Feng's success!"
"That's right, in the original plot, Luo Feng was the first Human Race Powerhouse in history to achieve Universe Master through the Beast God Path. This made me subconsciously follow his path to success."
"My success in the Blood River World earned me a large number of Blood River Crystals and that extremely precious Grey jade statue, which made me view him even more as a guiding light, and it was the same just now, but the problem is..."
Ender came to a realization, "Luo Feng followed the Golden Space Beast God Path, which is somewhat different from my Wood-Space Beast God Path. I can refer to his Cultivation path, but I cannot subconsciously imitate it."
"His path to success was very arduous, encountering multiple life-threatening crises before the Domain Master, while I have almost never encountered any, because my foundational Opportunity is much stronger than his!"
He thought to himself, "People are different, so their paths are also different."
"It's like achieving True God in the Original Universe. To become a True God through the Law route, one needs to forge their own path."
Ender understood, "If I were to ask myself, if I were Reborn in the Earth era, without knowing anything, could I follow Luo Feng's path to the end and save the Universe?"
"The answer is, very, very difficult! With my will and state of mind, passing the Possession of the Golden-Horned Beast and the Star Tower trials would be very difficult."
"So, I just need to rely on my own advantages and walk my own path!"
After being enlightened by Ice Summit Master, Ender understood and clearly knew how to walk his own path in the future.
"Thank you, Teacher, for enlightening me." He bowed respectfully and said, "If it weren't for your reminder, I would have continued to make mistakes."
"As your teacher, it is natural for me to guide you on your Cultivation path. It's good that you've realized." Ice Summit Master paused slightly and asked, "Then, are you planning to primarily Cultivate the Space Origin Law first, or the Wood-Space Fusion Laws?"
"This Disciple plans to primarily Cultivate the Space Origin Law. Once my Law comprehension reaches the twentieth level of the Tongtian Bridge, I will then Cultivate the Wood-Space Fusion Laws," Ender replied.
"Cultivating according to the Divine Tree Primal Chaos Tablet, that's good too." Ice Summit Master nodded slightly and said, "As my Personal Disciple, you already have the qualifications for permanent residence in Primal Chaos City. I will have someone release the final stage of the Highest Points Mission as soon as possible. After you complete it, come to Primal Chaos City for secluded Cultivation."
"Yes, Teacher," Ender respectfully responded.
"Hmm..." Ice Summit Master was about to dismiss Ender, but then suddenly asked, "I remember you became a Blood Warrior by fusing three Blood River Crystals when you completed the Blood River World Cultivation mission. How many Blood River Crystals have you fused now?"
"To answer Teacher, this Disciple has already fused ten Blood River Crystals," Ender replied.
"Ten?" Ice Summit Master was slightly startled at first, then a smile appeared on his face. "Very good, very good. Our Human Race has given birth to another Black Warrior, and one who has fused ten Blood River Crystals at the Domain Master."
Having observed Ender's growth, Ice Summit Master felt he understood his temperament and knew he wouldn't lie.
"Teacher smiled..."
Seeing Ice Summit Master's faint smile, Ender was somewhat surprised; it was the first time he had seen his teacher smile.
"Having fused ten Blood River Crystals to become a Black Warrior, you must also know the preciousness of Blood River Crystals."
"Continue to fuse Blood River Crystals, as many as you can." Ice Summit Master reverted to his indifferent demeanor and said, "Once your Law comprehension reaches the twentieth level of the Tongtian Bridge, I will apply for rare resources for you."
"Rare resources, that should refer to the Beast God's Blood." Ender guessed in his heart and nodded, "Yes, this Disciple will try to fuse as many Blood River Crystals as possible."
Ice Summit Master valued his Disciples greatly. With Ender becoming a Blood Warrior, he naturally wouldn't be stingy about giving rewards.
"As a reward for you becoming a Blood Warrior, if you can pass the Domain Master Primal Sky Mountain, in addition to the treasure I promised you, which even Universe Venerables find hard to possess..."
Ice Summit Master said, "Once you become a World Master, I will bestow upon you an additional treasure, a Universe Venerable-level treasure." "Thank you, Teacher." Ender thanked him, while thinking to himself, "A Universe Venerable-level treasure, that must be a Heavy Treasure, no doubt. However, for a top-tier fourth-order Universe Master like Teacher, the Heavy Treasure he bestows should not be an ordinary Heavy Treasure."
"Hmm, go." Ice Summit Master nodded slightly and said, "Complete the Highest Points Mission as soon as possible and come to Primal Chaos City for secluded Cultivation."
"This Disciple takes his leave." Ender bowed respectfully, then stepped back a few paces, turned, and teleported away.
After Ender left, Ice Summit Master, still standing at the mountain peak, murmured to himself, "Fusing ten Blood River Crystals at the Domain Master, the Legacy of the Ancient Civilization is indeed formidable."
...
Leaving his teacher Ice Summit Master's exclusive space, Ender returned to the study of his manor in the Primal Secret Realm of Yu Xiang Mountain.
"It's time to leave."
Having understood the path he would take, Ender no longer intended to stay in the Laos World. As for the Sacred Tablet, which still had half a year of comprehension time left, he decided to comprehend it for another month, saving the rest for a future Opportunity.
Just as he was about to leave the Virtual Universe, he heard Little Dawn's pleasant voice in his mind, "Master, there's an email from the Virtual Universe Company regarding the Highest Points Mission."
"An email about the Highest Points Mission? It came so quickly."
Ender knew that the final stage of the Highest Points Mission would soon be released to him, but he didn't expect it to arrive in less than three minutes.
"Open the email."
As his words fell, a light screen appeared before him, displaying an email with the title 'Highest Points Mission, Fourth Stage'.
Ender tapped the light screen with his finger, and the email opened, its content as follows—
[You have completed the third stage of the Highest Points Mission. After evaluation by numerous members, Ender, your completion rate for the third stage mission is 100%, and you are awarded 1.5 million points, qualifying you for the fourth stage mission.]
"100% completion for the third stage, hmm... as expected." Ender finished reading the first paragraph and muttered to himself, "I perfectly fulfilled the role of a blade, condemning 41 Lorgar Tribe members to death despite King Hongzhi's pressure. It wouldn't make sense not to give me a 100% evaluation."
After speaking, he continued reading.
[Comment: 15 Marquis-level Immortal of the Lorgar Tribe led over a thousand Immortals to receive you, and King Hongzhi, an Invincible King Powerhouse and loyal junior, executed the death sentences. Ender, you still dared to sentence all 41 people to death, which is truly commendable! Despite numerous threats, you still adhered to your principles. Very good, excellent. We hope you continue to stick to your principles.]
"I sentenced those 41 Lorgar Tribe members to death in front of King Hongzhi because they had committed acts that crossed the line and deserved to die."
Ender shook his head slightly and said, "And the high-level executives who set the Highest Points Mission clearly understood my principles in the second stage mission, which is why they had me judge those 41 people who committed acts beyond the line."
"With my teacher backing me, I naturally don't fear King Hongzhi, that Invincible King Powerhouse. As long as he doesn't go mad and attack me, if he does, even Venerable Vulture Wind would have a hard time protecting him, because I represent the Virtual Universe Company!"
[The fourth stage mission is the final stage of the Highest Points Mission, and also the most important part for evaluating the final bonus points. We hope Ender, you execute this mission with caution.]
[Mission Background: Since Ender Royce's rise and subsequent appointment as the Supervising Envoy of the Ganwu Branch, Ender's Family, the 'Royce Family,' has risen in status.
The Royce Family has over one hundred thousand Bloodline members, plus numerous wives who married into the Family, etc., bringing the total Royce Family members close to one million. Although there are Family rules..., it is unrealistic for the Royce Family to fully monitor all those descendants scattered across the Universe. Moreover, with so many people, there will naturally be parasites.]
[Mission Content: 32 members within the Royce Family have been deemed guilty. Ender will now judge them, with four possible outcomes: 'Death Sentence,' 'Imprisonment for a Hundred Years,' 'Imprisonment for Ten Thousand Years,' or 'Not Guilty.' If a death sentence is passed, Ender, you will personally carry out the execution. These 32 criminals are...]
From reading the initial part of the fourth stage of the Highest Points Mission, Ender's heart was heavy, but when he finished reading the entire email, his face turned ashen!
Because the list of criminals was—
[Hailute Royce: 13th generation descendant of Hollu Royce, using the Royce Family's influence in the energy business, encountering business rivals, either assassinating or framing them. Once, he massacred an entire Family of thousands overnight, and various departments of the Ganwu Universe Country, intimidated by Ender's identity, dared not investigate thoroughly when the Royce Family was involved.
He Yi Royce: 12th generation descendant of Lan Ke Royce (Fourth Sister)...
Luheye Royce: 12th generation descendant of Krite Royce (Fourteen)...
Erlite Royce: 10th generation descendant of Eric Ron Royce (Big Brother)...
...
Arthur Royce (Nineteen): Third generation of the Royce Family, during his Universe adventures, he befriended many individuals. These individuals used Arthur Royce's funds and connections to establish a slave trade organization, enslaving nearly a hundred life planets and trafficking billions of Human Race members...
...
Linaya Royce: Wife of Gabriel Royce (Sixth Uncle). Linaya's original Family used the Royce Family's status and power to conduct their affairs...]
"32 people!"
Ender's face was ashen. "They want me to judge 32 members of the Royce Family, and 11 of them are my brothers and Elders!"
Of the 32 names on the list, one-third were his brothers and Elders. This judgment mission made him angry; it was clearly the high-level executives of the Virtual Universe Company testing him, to see how he would rule in the face of familial ties.
"Do they really want to see how I judge my own Family?"
If the list only contained younger generations of the Family, Ender would naturally conduct a strict judgment. But the problem now was that there were also 11 brothers and Elders on it, which made it very difficult for him.
Like Luo Feng with his father, not even arresting him?
Ender couldn't do that!
Because the crimes of these 11 people were not minor; each one involved billions, even tens of billions, of lives.
Although these 11 people were not the main culprits, if they hadn't been the backers, would the others have dared to do such things?
Just the competitors alone would have been enough to cause them trouble. Without sufficient background and strength, it would be impossible to expand a business in a Universe where strength is revered. Background and influence are the key to expanding a business!
His hands clenched into fists, Ender's face was extremely grim. After issuing the arrest orders, he went offline and left the Virtual Universe.
...
Laos World, Holy Land residence.
Ender walked out of the quiet room with a somber face and said to Elder Rient and the others, "Elder Rient, I have an urgent matter and need to leave the Laos World."
Seeing Ender's grim expression, Elder Rient and the others dared not say much, fearing to offend this rare Human Race Genius whom they had just managed to befriend. So, he said, "No problem, we can escort Your Highness back to the Ganwu Universe Country."
Ender thanked him, "Thank you."
Soon, a group of seven left the Sacred City. King Lu Sha teleported them to the edge of the Laos World, and then they departed by spaceship.
