As soon as Chen Yuan finished speaking, the familiar dark clouds fell from the horizon, transforming into the shape of the primordial star.
"You little brat—hiss."
The Star Ancestor scrutinized Chen Yuan, then suddenly gasped, "How did your willpower suddenly reach the level of a Universe Lord?"
He rubbed his eyes and looked again. Sure enough, it really was the will of a cosmic master.
"So, when you said your cultivation wasn't over, you meant a breakthrough in willpower?"
The Star Ancestor couldn't help but ask, "That's strange. Only a few hundred years have passed. How did you manage to do that?"
"It's nothing much, just a breakthrough that came naturally."
Chen Yuan smiled and replied respectfully.
Information about breaking through to the Forgetfulness Realm is naturally impossible to disclose, even if Chen Yuan wanted to, he couldn't, because information about this path is restricted by the highest rules.
So he could only make up an excuse: "The Ancestor should know that since I entered the Beast God Realm, my level of will has already been equivalent to the peak of a mid-level Venerable."
The Starry Sky Ancestor nodded. Nothing in the Beast God Realm could escape his observation, and he was naturally very clear about Chen Yuan's level when he first entered.
Not only that, he also knew that Chen Yuan's will had broken through again shortly after he entered, reaching the High Venerable level.
"So you're saying that because you honed your skills for two million years in the Beast God Realm, your will broke through one after another, rising from a mid-level Venerable all the way to a Universe Lord?"
The Star Ancestor's tone was full of doubt. If it were really that simple, then almost every immortal in his clan would be the will of a cosmic master.
"Of course not." Chen Yuan shook his head. "Not long after I entered the Beast God Realm, my mind was touched and my will broke through to the level of a high-level Venerable. Then, over a long period of millions of years, I continued to hone my skills and finally reached the limit of a Venerable."
"The progenitor should be very clear about this."
Should I be clear about this?
A strange look flashed across the Star Ancestor's expression, but in order not to appear intimidated in front of Chen Yuan, he nodded: "That's right."
In fact, he only knew that Chen Yuan had broken through to the High-level Venerable realm, but he didn't know when Chen Yuan reached the Venerable realm limit.
Because the strength of willpower is actually very difficult for people to perceive, as it does not fluctuate as obviously as the soul.
As long as Chen Yuan doesn't use his will on ordinary days, even if the Starry Sky Ancestor controls the Beast God Realm and can examine every detail of Chen Yuan inch by inch, he will not be able to detect the level of Chen Yuan's will at all, unless he directly suppresses Chen Yuan's will.
The only change in will he could perceive was a breakthrough in his cultivation level.
When the strength of will breaks through a level, the opponent's will will instantly increase, and at this moment a wave of will will be revealed. Although this wave is very secretive, it certainly cannot be hidden from the Star Ancestor who controls the Beast God Realm.
However, he rarely noticed the slow accumulation of minor realms, such as the improvement of willpower from the initial stage of advanced Venerable level to the peak of Venerable level, because it was a gradual and imperceptible improvement.
This is why the Starry Sky Ancestor only knew that Chen Yuan's will broke through to the High-Level Venerable not long after entering the Beast God Realm, but he was unaware that the other party had also gone from the High-Level Venerable to the peak of the Venerable in just a few hundred years.
Therefore, regarding Chen Yuan's statement that he gradually raised his will to its peak through millions of years of tempering, since it was quite reasonable, the Star Ancestor, although unsure of its veracity, did not delve into it but continued to listen.
Because he felt that Chen Yuan's next words were the key.
As expected, Chen Yuan continued, "I spent the first million years raising my will to the peak of the Venerable level. In the next million years, although my will level did not improve much, it still pushed me to the true limit."
"We're just one opportunity away from breaking through to the True Limit."
At this point, Chen Yuan paused, deliberately glanced at the Star Ancestor, and then slowly said, "As for this opportunity, it is the moment when I create the strongest secret technique."
After listening to Chen Yuan's account, the Star Ancestor fell into deep thought. He frowned slightly, clearly feeling that things were not so simple.
However, the other party's explanation was indeed impeccable, because the creation of a secret technique could indeed affect one's will, especially since the other party had created the strongest secret technique.
That's for sure.
Regardless of how long it took Chen Yuan to reach the limit of Venerable Willpower, everything Chen Yuan said at the end, except for the information about his spiritual realm, was the truth.
He did indeed enter a state of "selflessness" while creating the strongest secret technique, accidentally triggering the opportunity to reach the state of "sitting in oblivion," which allowed him to seize the chance to advance his spiritual realm and break through his will.
So after a long silence, the Star Ancestor could only attribute it to luck, then shook his head and sighed, "You brat..."
"How lucky!"
"It's also thanks to the environment of the Beast God Realm that we have so much to rely on," Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Alright, enough of the small talk," the Star Ancestor continued. "Let's get back to the main topic. Weren't you preparing to leave the Beast God Realm?"
"Then get ready, I'll take you straight out."
"Huh?" Chen Yuan was taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't there still a test?"
"You've already created the strongest secret technique, why would you need a test?" The Starry Sky Ancestor rolled his eyes at him and said irritably, "Are you ready or not? If you're ready, then let's go."
In fact, the Star Ancestor originally wanted to test Chen Yuan, and he was also quite curious about the "Great Destruction" created by Chen Yuan.
The mere thought of this kid's breakthrough to the level of a Universe Lord suddenly dampened the Star Ancestor's interest.
The main reason is that Chen Yuan's talent is too strong, and he is strong in all aspects without any weaknesses.
Even he was a little taken aback, which is why he thought of sending the guy away as soon as possible, so he wouldn't have to see him anymore.
Chen Yuan nodded repeatedly upon hearing this: "It's all ready, we can leave at any time."
The Primordial Ancestor of the Starry Sky raised his hand and drew a spatial gate, saying calmly, "Just go out. The Primordial Mountain is right outside."
"Thank you, Ancestor." Chen Yuan bowed respectfully and stepped into the spatial portal.
Meanwhile, on Ancestral Mountain, the Starry Sky Ancestor, who was drinking, suddenly changed his expression: "How is this possible?!"
"What's wrong this time?" The mountain dweller asked calmly, just as a routine question.
But he knew without even thinking that Chen Yuan's performance must have shocked the old beast god again. And this wasn't the first time the beast god had been surprised in the past two hundred years, to the point that the mountain dweller had gotten used to it.
Upon hearing what the Mountain Guest said, the Star Ancestor came to his senses.
His expression looked somewhat strange, but he shook his head, sighed, and said, "It's nothing. Your apprentice will be out soon. See for yourself."
"Oh?" Seeing his old friend's expression, the Mountain Guest became curious. Had the Old Beast God suffered a blow? Why did he suddenly become so listless?
Just then, a spatial gate appeared on the Ancestral Mountain, and Chen Yuan's figure walked out from it. Upon seeing them, he respectfully bowed and said, "Disciple greets Master and Ancestral Master."
"Good disciple, get up." The Mountain Guest chuckled as he helped Chen Yuan up, about to say something, when his expression suddenly changed: "A Universe Lord-level will?!"
Chen Yuan looked up slightly, but he didn't expect that the teacher would notice. Could it be because the teacher helped him up?
"Ha ha ha ha"
At the same time, the Star Ancestor suddenly burst into laughter, pointing at the Mountain Guest and saying, "Mountain Guest, Mountain Guest, I thought you knew everything, but it turns out you can be frightened by your disciple's talent."
Hearing the laughter of the Star Ancestor, the Mountain-Sitting Guest also came to his senses, but he didn't care about his old friend's mockery and laughed along: "Good, my good disciple, you did well!"
Judging from the excited expression on the mountain dweller's face, it seemed that his breakthrough in willpower was more important than Chen Yuan creating the strongest secret technique.
The Star Ancestor had stopped laughing and looked at his old friend with some surprise. The two had known each other for many years, and this was the first time he had seen the usually calm Mountain Guest show such excitement.
Only Chen Yuan knew why, because as his willpower broke through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, it meant that he was now qualified to be recognized as a master by the Star Tower.
This also means that the Mountain Man's revenge plan has finally seen hope, which is why he is so excited.
However, he quickly composed himself and said with a smile, "Chen Yuan, you did well. I didn't expect that in addition to creating the strongest secret technique, your will has also broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe. It's a double celebration!"
When asked about the breakthrough in willpower, Chen Yuan gave the same explanation as before, but the Mountain-Sitting Guest simply nodded to indicate that he understood, completely ignoring whether what he said was true or false.
In any case, as long as this level of willpower is genuine, the Mountain Guest is already quite satisfied and doesn't need to know how his disciple achieved it.
"Old Beast God, we really owe you a lot for your Beast God Realm this time," said the Mountain-Sitting Guest with a chuckle.
The Star Ancestor said irritably, "Since my Beast God Realm has made significant contributions, then let's just forget about my bet."
"That won't do. You said you'd accept the consequences of your bet."
Without a second thought, the Mountain-Sitting Guest refused, smiling as he said, "You can't go back on your word, Old Beast God."
"That's enough." The Star Ancestor shook his head, pointed his finger, and a black beast shadow suddenly appeared in the void.
"Chen Yuan, this top-tier 'Beast God Armor' set is yours."
Chen Yuan looked at the black beast shadow in the sky, and combined with the introduction from the Star Ancestor, he immediately understood that this was the set that appeared in the original work.
However, this outfit was originally meant to be lost to Luo Feng, but now it's in his hands. In any case, he can't escape the fate of losing it.
At this moment, the Starry Sky Ancestor had finished introducing the set and then said, "Chen Yuan, I know that you have a clone of the 'Soul Devouring Domain Beast' that has evolved to its ultimate state. It can transform into anything and is most suitable for using this Beast God Armor."
"This Beast God Armor is yours. I hope you will not tarnish the reputation of this supreme treasure."
Chen Yuan nodded and said respectfully, "Thank you for bestowing this treasure upon me, Ancestor."
The Primordial Ancestor of the Stars smiled and nodded: "Take it."
As the Soul Devouring Beast clone appeared, it quickly refined the treasure. Chen Yuan then transformed into the Wind Beast God form, perfectly matching all the parts of the Beast God Armor.
With a casual flick of its claws, barely exerting any force, it effortlessly carved out a long spatial rift, demonstrating its formidable power.
"Indeed, this set is suitable for the Soul Devouring Beast clone."
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "Once I optimize it again and raise its level, the equipment problem for the clone will be perfectly solved."
A moment later, he retrieved the Soul Devouring Beast clone and thanked him again: "Thank you, Ancestor. This treasure is indeed very suitable for me."
"One word of thanks is enough." The Star Ancestor gently shook his head. "You should thank yourself for being outstanding enough, otherwise you wouldn't have obtained this treasure, and your teacher would have lost a top-tier treasure to me instead."
At this moment, the Mountain-Sitting Guest came to Chen Yuan's side, turned around and said, "Old Beast God, if there's nothing else, I'll take Chen Yuan away."
Since Chen Yuan didn't have a Starry Sky Beast clone, the Starry Sky Ancestor didn't mention having Chen Yuan join, and simply nodded and said, "Let's go, I'll send you away, it'll be faster that way."
As soon as they finished speaking, the world spun around them, and the master and apprentice found themselves in an unfamiliar starry sky.
Sensing the laws that were a hundred times clearer than those in the Beast God Realm, Chen Yuan understood that he had returned to the primordial universe.
At this moment, the hermit noticed that Chen Yuan's expression was unusual and couldn't help but ask, "Disciple, what's wrong?"
"Teacher," Chen Yuan asked in confusion, "I feel that my own Time Law is stirring, as if it could reach perfection at any moment, but after trying for a long time, I still can't find an opportunity to break through. What's going on?"
"So that's how it is." The Mountain-Sitting Guest smiled faintly, then asked, "Disciple, you've been in the Beast God Realm for two million years,..."
You must have grasped quite a bit of the laws by now.
"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded and told the truth: "This disciple has comprehended the laws of spacetime to the peak of the King-level, and the seven lower-level laws have reached their limit. Only the law of lightning has not been comprehended much."
"That's right." The Mountain Guest shook his head. "I remember that before you entered the Beast God Realm, your Time Law had just reached the King level, and your Space Law was just starting out. It's clear that you've made tremendous progress in the past two million years."
"Therefore, your laws are also deeply influenced by the Beast God Realm."
The influence of the Beast God Realm? Chen Yuan was taken aback and quickly asked, "Teacher, is there any downside to comprehending the laws in the Beast God Realm?"
"Of course there are downsides," said the Mountain-Sitting Guest matter-of-factly. "No matter how wondrous the Beast God Realm may be, it is, in essence, just a small universe of the Starry Sky Ancestor, and the laws of a small universe naturally cannot compare with the entire primordial universe."
At this point, the Mountain Guest paused before continuing, "Lower-level laws are relatively easy to understand, but the spacetime laws within the miniature universes of almost all the strongest beings are incomplete."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan suddenly realized that his spacetime laws had almost stopped progressing after reaching the 20th level.
"It turns out that the reason I was unable to comprehend the perfection for so long was because the laws in the Beast God Realm were inherently imperfect."
Chen Yuan looked enlightened and then said, "Teacher, so the reason I can't break through to the Perfect Law is because I've been influenced by the laws of the Beast God Realm, which has led me astray?"
"That's exactly right."
The Mountain-Sitting Guest smiled as he looked at his disciple and explained, "The spacetime laws you comprehended in the Beast God Realm are fundamentally wrong in some aspects compared to the complete laws of the primordial universe."
"The more you try to understand it, the more erroneous rules you will grasp."
"But," Chen Yuan suddenly hesitated, "I remember that the initial universe where Chaos City is located should also be a small universe, right? Yet many of our human race's powerful figures have comprehended the laws in Chaos City and eventually successfully broke through to the Venerable realm."
"The initial universe was of course a small universe, and the laws of spacetime within it were also incomplete."
The Mountain-Sitting Guest countered, "You say many human powerhouses broke through, but was there even one who broke through within the initial universe?"
Chen Yuanyi thought for a moment, then honestly shook his head: "There's no one here."
However, he immediately said, "But the reason why those Venerable Ones break through in the Primordial Universe is because the Origin of the Universe will descend upon them after the breakthrough. If they break through in the Initial Universe, the Primordial Universe cannot sense it."
"Indeed." The Mountain-Sitting Guest smiled slightly. "Therefore, throughout countless eras, no one in your human race has ever discovered this matter, including the strongest among your human races."
Chen Yuan was stunned again, wanting to refute, but he couldn't find any evidence to refute it.
Moreover, he knew in his heart that as the God King of Jin, the Mountain Guest's vision was definitely beyond his own, which meant that what the other party said was probably true.
The Mountain Guest revealed the secret: "When each of the strongest individuals constructs a miniature universe, although the methods they use differ, there is one thing that is largely the same."
"That is the foundation for building a miniature universe, the eight fundamental laws, not the ten laws."
"That is why it is impossible for a universe master with perfect spacetime to be born in the small universe of the strongest being."
"Even the birth of a Universe Venerable requires the assistance of the universe's origin, and the number of Venerables in each small universe is limited."
The mountain dweller laughed and said, "They don't even have enough spots for their own alliance, so why would they use them on you?"
"That's why your spacetime laws are stuck at the threshold of perfection, unable to make any progress."
