Waiting for Bai Yue within the inner mansion was the very Gui Yi Venerable mentioned by the guards earlier.
"I am Gui Yi," he said with a gentle smile that seemed to soothe the soul itself. "By Teacher's order, I have come to receive you."
"This junior, Bai Yue, greets Gui Yi Venerable," Bai Yue replied, bowing respectfully.
"Come," Gui Yi said lightly. "Follow me."
"Yes."
As they walked deeper into the inner residence of the City Lord's Mansion, Gui Yi turned his head slightly and spoke in an unhurried tone.
"Teacher intends to take you as a registered disciple. Judging from your temperament, I believe you should be willing."
"I am," Bai Yue answered without hesitation.
Gui Yi nodded, the smile on his face widening a little.
"Since you are now Teacher's registered disciple, there is no need to call me 'Venerable' anymore. You may address me as Second Senior Brother."
Bai Yue was momentarily startled, then quickly responded, "Greetings, Second Senior Brother."
Gui Yi waved his hand casually. "I became Teacher's disciple extremely early, which is why I hold this ranking. Among Teacher's disciples, many are far stronger than I am. It is only because of Teacher's favor that I am often allowed to remain by his side."
As he spoke, the two continued forward at a brisk pace. Before reaching their destination, Gui Yi's expression turned solemn.
"One more thing," he said in a low voice. "The clone of Teacher stationed in the Initial Universe is the one focused primarily on killing and warfare. When you meet him, you must be respectful at all times. Do not offend him—under any circumstances."
"I understand," Bai Yue replied seriously.
Soon, they arrived at a quiet courtyard. Beside its entrance stood an ancient stone tablet bearing three mysterious characters:
Chaos Ruins.
The moment Bai Yue stepped through the courtyard gate, space and time seemed to twist violently. One instant he was still within the City Lord's Mansion; the next, the stars shifted, the heavens overturned, and he found himself standing in an entirely different world.
It was vast—boundless beyond comprehension.
As far as the eye could see, corpses littered the land. Some were as enormous as planets, others smaller than Humans, yet every single one radiated an aura so terrifying that it made the soul tremble. This was clearly the aftermath of a battlefield where peak existences had once clashed.
"Teacher," Gui Yi suddenly called out.
Only then did Bai Yue notice the towering figure standing not far away.
A burly man nearly three meters tall stood there, clad in ancient dark-red battle armor etched with incomprehensibly complex patterns. Heavy battle boots grounded him firmly, and a scaled tail extended from beneath his battle skirt.
The instant Bai Yue's gaze fell upon him, his soul shuddered violently, as if he were staring directly into the endless origin of the universe itself.
This was the true ruler of the Virtual Universe Corporation—
The Primordial Chaos City Lord.
"Bai Yue," an ordinary, almost casual voice sounded.
In an instant, all the illusions vanished. Bai Yue found himself once again standing in a quiet courtyard, able to see the City Lord clearly with his physical eyes.
The Primordial Chaos City Lord turned his calm gaze toward him. Two fiery-red horns rose from his forehead, and faint, mysterious secret patterns traced his face, lending him a fearsome appearance. Yet his eyes were deep and tranquil, like the boundless starry sky, naturally calming all who looked into them.
Bai Yue immediately knelt.
"This disciple greets City Lord."
"Your will is strong," the City Lord said calmly. "Your opportunities are also extraordinary. I have watched the recording of your Tongtian Bridge challenge. You have fully comprehended the 108 essences of the Space Law, and your combined application has reached an extremely high level."
Bai Yue remained silent, listening with complete respect.
"You passed the twelfth level of the Yan Mountain Tongtian Bridge and grasped a trace of its true meaning," the City Lord continued. "What surprised me even more was this—your clone chose the Wind Shadow Chaos Tablet, which does not match your main body's path, yet in merely ten years, you achieved such progress. That is… remarkable."
The City Lord paused briefly before asking, "Are you willing to become my registered disciple?"
"This disciple is willing," Bai Yue replied without the slightest hesitation.
The Primordial Chaos City Lord nodded gently, and at that moment, the master–disciple bond was established.
"You possess a rare talent for Law comprehension," the City Lord said. "I will not burden you with excessive demands. You have already passed the twelfth level of the Yan Mountain Tongtian Bridge. If you attempt the Tongtian Mountain, your chances of success are high."
He looked directly at Bai Yue.
"I will give you two thousand years. If, within that time, you pass the sixteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge, I will take you as a direct disciple."
"This disciple will do his utmost," Bai Yue said solemnly.
"Good."
The City Lord continued, "You may continue to use your current two identities. Any additional costs will be borne by me. Ji Ning's information will be elevated to the highest confidentiality and will not be disclosed."
"You already have Dry Witch guiding your cultivation," he added. "I will not assign another instructor. He will continue guiding you in Earth and Space Laws."
After a brief pause—clearly transmitting an instruction to the Gan Wu Country Lord—the City Lord went on.
"The Virtual Universe Corporation values talent. When you reach World Lord, resources will be allocated accordingly. As my disciple, I will grant you an advance."
Bai Yue's heart surged with excitement. "Thank you, Teacher."
"I grant you twenty additional Chaos Tablet comprehension opportunities. You may choose freely. This should suit your current needs."
The City Lord's voice remained calm, yet authoritative.
"Go. I hope to see you pass the Domain Lord-level Primitive Tongtian Mountain within three thousand years."
"Yes!"
With a spatial shift, Bai Yue and Gui Yi returned to the courtyard entrance.
"Work hard, Junior Brother," Gui Yi said with a smile before vanishing.
Instead of returning to his residence, Bai Yue immediately headed toward the Chaos Tablet chambers. At the same time, his consciousness logged into the Virtual Universe and appeared at the foot of the Universe Rank Primitive Tongtian Mountain.
Half an hour later, news spread through the highest levels—
The Primitive Tongtian Mountain, unconquered for hundreds of epochs, had been passed.
Gan Wu Country Lord laughed loudly.
"Who would've thought I'd end up guiding you again, brat?"
"If there's anything you don't understand," he added, "just ask. I can come to Primordial Chaos City anytime."
"Thank you, Teacher."
With the Tongtian Mountain cleared, Bai Yue no longer suppressed his cultivation. Under his guidance, both clones advanced toward Domain Lord.
Original force and Mental Power converged at the black hole singularity, forming the Domain Lord life core. Cells throughout his body roared, genes reorganizing and refining themselves toward perfection. When the transformation stabilized, his physical strength had increased by hundreds of times.
The Virtual Universe instantly registered the change.
Universe Rank → Domain Lord
Primitive Mystical Region Member
All information regarding Ji Ning remained sealed, visible only to those with sufficient authority.
After stabilizing his realm, Bai Yue directly applied for a nutrient cabin to raise himself to the peak Domain Lord state.
The road ahead had truly opened.
