I just became the Pirate King, and you're telling me I also time-traveled at the same time.

Chapter 775 The Promise with the Mountain Hermit! The Secret Technique 'Severing the Void'

No sooner had the Lord of Chaos finished speaking than a figure walked in.

Chu Yang turned his head to look at the newcomer, his eyes narrowing slightly.

The newcomer was not human, but a special life form, yet its aura was quite terrifying.

Chu Yang's mind raced, and then he suddenly asked, "The Mountain Hermit?"

The other person was taken aback for a moment, not expecting Chu Yang to be able to see through his identity so easily, then smiled and nodded.

"It seems you do know a lot of things. My trip wasn't in vain after all..."

After speaking, he turned to the Lord of Chaos City, a polite smile on his face, and said courteously, "Could we speak privately?"

The Lord of Chaos City looked at Chu Yang, and seeing the latter nod, he got up and walked outside, saying as he went, "You guys chat, I happen to have something to discuss with Jufu."

Right now, all the forces in the Cosmic Sea and the Primordial Universe are busy gathering powerful individuals to prepare for the encirclement and annihilation of the World Beast.

On the human side, the main figures are Chu Yang, the founder of the giant axe, and the Lord of Chaos City.

Unfortunately, Chu Yang was a hands-off manager, so the other two had to take on the responsibilities.

After the Lord of Chaos left, the Mountain-Sitting Guest looked at Chu Yang and suddenly asked softly, "You and I come from the same place?"

Chu Yang smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, but I know that place very well."

The mountain-dweller had no doubts and simply nodded.

If Chu Yang really came from the Origin Continent, then it's impossible that I wouldn't have noticed even the slightest clue.

After all, he was a prominent figure in the original universe and had some understanding of powerful figures from all sides.

If Chu Yang had the ability to cross the Cosmic Sea and reach the Primordial Universe, he wouldn't be unknown on the Origin Continent.

Chu Yang took a sip of the fine wine in his cup, then looked at the Mountain Guest with a smile and asked, "You came to see me to add an extra layer of insurance? Or are you planning to have two backup plans?"

The mountain dweller's pupils contracted slightly. Although he had guessed that Chu Yang knew a lot of things, he never expected that the other party would see through his plan in a single sentence.

"What is your connection to... the original will of the universe?" the Mountain-Sitting Guest asked tentatively.

In his view, since Chu Yang was a person from the primordial universe, yet knew so much about the Origin Continent and his own affairs, he was probably one of the three ancestral gods of the Ancestral God Cult, who learned about these things from the original will of the true universe.

Chu Yang shook his head again, denying it, "There is no connection, but I have met with the teacher."

He knew that the person who sat on the mountain must have something important to discuss with him, and he was happy to make friends with a powerful figure from the Origin Continent.

If the mountain dweller doesn't understand why he knows so many secrets, he won't let his guard down and be open about it.

So Chu Yang simply shifted the blame to Yuan Zu, since Zuo Shan Ke wouldn't be seeing Yuan Zu anytime soon.

Upon hearing Chu Yang's words, the Mountain Hermit suddenly understood, and then, without beating around the bush, asked seriously, "What's your opinion on the matter of the Beast Realm?"

Chu Yang shrugged and curled his lip, saying, "What else can I say?"

"It's one thing for those three old guys to fool others, but we both know perfectly well what really happened..."

The man sitting on the mountain smiled knowingly, his expression becoming somewhat amused, and said softly, "Indeed, although they didn't lie, they were intentionally distorting the truth."

"The demands of the primordial will of the universe are merely for self-preservation."

"But the three ancestral gods want to use everyone as pawns!"

Chu Yang smiled nonchalantly and said, "They need a gun, and I can make this gun."

"But it remains to be seen who is using whom..."

The mountain dweller's eyes narrowed as he stared intently at Chu Yang. He sensed ambition emanating from this young, strongest human!

Regarding the matter of the Beast Realm, whatever the Ancestral God's demands may be, they are of no concern to him.

What truly matters are the primordial will of the universe and the Beasts of the Realm!

Judging from Chu Yang's words, he clearly wants to be the biggest winner.

But what's the profit in this?

Enslaving the Beasts of the Realm!

Possessing the original universe!

This guy has only just broken through to the True God realm, yet he already possesses such courage!

The Mountain Hermit didn't think Chu Yang was arrogant, because he had seen far too many prodigies and understood one thing...

Never make arbitrary, subjective judgments before the situation is settled!

Of course, this was just his guess, and even if he guessed correctly, these things were still too far removed from Chu Yang's current situation.

"I'd like to talk to you about Luo Feng..."

Only then did Zuo Shan Ke get down to business.

Chu Yang nodded, waiting for what was to come.

The mountain dweller pondered for a moment, then said softly, "Since you know my plan, you should also know that I place high hopes on Luo Feng."

"If the attempt to kill the World Beast fails, so be it. But even if it succeeds, with you here, it will be difficult for Luo Feng to stand out."

"So I hope that if you can truly traverse the cosmic ocean, you can take him and me with you!"

Chu Yang was slightly surprised. "You have that much confidence in me?"

Leaving aside those few true bodies that can unleash the top power of the tenth rank, just considering that he had just condensed the heart of a true god, in the eyes of others, he could only be considered the most ordinary seventh-rank true god.

With this kind of strength, one could only say that they have the ability to fight against a World Beast in its gestation period.

Furthermore, one must possess the most powerful and precious armor, as well as the most powerful and precious soul-type treasures; otherwise, one is simply feeding the enemy.

Of course, Chu Yang's true strength is definitely far beyond that of a seventh-tier True God.

With the completion of the Primordial World, his understanding of the fundamental laws has deepened, and he has even begun to attempt to integrate the Ten Great Laws.

Moreover, he made rapid progress in creating his own secret techniques.

He has successfully created a seventh-order secret technique and further improved it to the eighth order, and is now attempting to break through to the ninth order!

Chu Yang's thinking was very clear: he would devote all his energy to a single secret technique.

He would not consider creating a second True God-level secret technique until he broke through to the Void True God level.

There is still some time before the plan to kill the World Beast begins. Most of the powerful figures are currently training in the Fourth Forbidden Land of the Cosmic Sea, which is the Jin World.

Chu Yang was confident that he could upgrade his secret technique to the ninth rank before setting off for the Qingfeng Realm!

At that time, he will be a genuine ninth-order true god!

As for strength...

Even Chu Yang himself wasn't sure what level of strength he would reach by then.

After all, before breaking through to the True God realm, he could already roam freely in the cosmic sea.

Even if powerful figures from all sides obtain opportunities in the Jin world and greatly improve their strength, no one can compare with him!

Most importantly...

He also has the God-Slaying Sword!

Although this thing is not the most powerful treasure, its power is even more terrifying than that of the most powerful treasure!

Moreover, the God-Slaying Sword is a treasure that grows with age; the stronger Chu Yang becomes, the higher the God-Slaying Sword's rank will be.

The Mountain-Sitting Guest smiled meaningfully and said, "Lord of All Laws, it's not that I have faith in you, but rather that the primordial will of the universe has placed its bet on you!"

"I don't believe that the original will would resort to desperate measures, so I think that, at least for a long time to come, Luo Feng will have a hard time catching up with you."

"In your words, this is like me preparing for the worst..."

Chu Yang raised an eyebrow slightly. "The Origin Will is betting on me?"

The Mountain Guest nodded and said, "That's right. Outside the Jin World, the Ancestral God asked Luo Feng and the Lord of Chaos City why you didn't go there."

"Perhaps others don't take this to heart, after all, your strength is undeniable, it's normal for the Ancestral God to ask this question."

"But they overlooked the fact that at that time, the ancestral god represented the primordial will!"

"Or rather... the fundamental will desires your involvement in this matter!"

Chu Yang suddenly realized why the Lord of Chaos City hadn't mentioned the Ancestral God's initiative to find Luo Feng.

It seems that the other party had no intention of persuading Luo Feng at all, but instead set their sights on themselves.

It must be said that the three ancestral gods are all very intelligent. From the many things that have happened in the past, it is not difficult to see Chu Yang's style of doing things.

So they didn't try to persuade Chu Yang at all, knowing that would backfire. Instead, they subtly hinted at his involvement through subtle details.

With that in mind, Chu Yang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I can agree to that, but there's no such thing as a free lunch..."

The Mountain-Sitting Guest was clearly prepared, and said directly, "Once we arrive on the Origin Continent, I can give you a clue about a God-King level treasure!"

"And I've already confirmed it; as long as we follow the clues, we're sure to obtain that treasure!"

"Of course, we'll definitely encounter some dangers..."

Chu Yang's expression was slightly strange. The words of the Mountain Hermit sounded nice, but it was more like trying to get something for nothing.

After all, the other party only provided information about a God-King level treasure; whether or not Chu Yang could obtain it depended on his own abilities.

However, he also knew how valuable a God-King level treasure was; a single accurate clue was enough to drive many powerful figures on the Origin Continent mad.

So after only a slight hesitation, Chu Yang nodded again and said, "Deal!"

The man sitting on the mountain smiled, and after exchanging a few more words with the man, he left.

In fact, both Zuoshanke and Chu Yang knew perfectly well that the deal they reached based solely on a verbal agreement was entirely due to Luo Feng's involvement.

From the perspective of the Lord of Chaos City, Chu Yang is Luo Feng's senior uncle, and Zuo Shan Ke is another of Luo Feng's teachers.

Even if something goes wrong in the end, Luo Feng will definitely step in to mediate.

After the Mountain Guest left, Chu Yang entered the virtual universe, found the Lord of Chaos City and the Founder of the Giant Axe, discussed the matter of the World Beast with them, and then began his seclusion in Chaos City.

Chu Yang had only two purposes for this seclusion...

Comprehend the laws and merge them! Research and create your own secret techniques!

The fusion of laws cannot be rushed, but he has already made some progress. All that is needed now is to build a preliminary framework and prototype.

After all, he couldn't break through to the Void True God realm anytime soon. His current research on law fusion was merely laying the foundation for the future.

The most urgent task is to achieve a breakthrough in self-created secret techniques!

Chu Yang's self-created secret technique is a sword technique called "Severing the Void".

The technique of "Breaking Through the Void" is based on the five laws of metal, fire, light, thunder, and void. It combines the elusive and agile nature of swordsmanship with the fierce and domineering power of swordsmanship.

It is only a seventh-order secret technique, but it integrates the five fundamental laws, including the law of space, making it more powerful than many eighth-order secret techniques.

After breaking through to the eighth rank, Chu Yang added the fundamental law of wind to it.

Now he is attempting to break through to the ninth level by incorporating the fundamental law of earth.

Secret techniques are a manifestation of the combination of laws, rather than a true fusion of laws, but they can lay the foundation for the fusion of laws.

When Chu Yang integrates all the laws contained in the Void Breaking Technique into one, this secret technique will undergo a qualitative change.

At that time, the technique of "Severing the Void" could be considered a secret technique at the level of a Chaos Overlord.

Time flies, and a year has passed since the Mountain Guest's clone found Chu Yang.

However, for Chu Yang, who was in the initial universe, only three months had passed.

Because the Ancestral God Cult made the matter of the Beast Realm public in advance, the Jin World did not enter the Third Era until this time.

Chu Yang remains in seclusion, focusing entirely on the study of the Void Breaker.

He finally broke through the barrier in the third millennium.

Ninth-order Void Break, accomplished!

Compared to the initial breakthrough, the process of advancing from the eighth to the ninth rank is much longer.

The first thing Chu Yang did after emerging from seclusion was to find the creator of the giant axe and verify the power of the ninth-order Void Breaker.

Many people know about this matter and have been paying attention to the outcome, but there has been no news.

Six months later, Chu Yang returned to the initial universe and went into seclusion once again.

The creator of the giant axe remained tight-lipped about it, leaving the human warriors speculating wildly.

Some say the founder of the giant axe may have lost, but many others are unwilling to believe it.

After all, how long has Chu Yang only been a True God?

In their view, since the progenitor, the founder of the giant axe has always been the pillar of the human race. How could he be so easily defeated by a successor?

Chu Yang's seclusion lasted longer this time, during which many things happened in the outside world.

In the eighth millennium, the Ancestral Court completed its initial accumulation of resources and became the sixth giant, on par with the five major powers!

In the first ten thousandth era, Chu Yang emerged from seclusion once again.

Just when everyone thought he would go to spar with the founder of the giant axe again, Chu Yang plunged into the Cosmic Sea and entered the Jin World.

At first, everyone thought he was going to seek an opportunity, but who would have thought that Chu Yang would return not long after.

Some people speculated what had happened, while others went to Luo Feng to find out what was going on.

Now everyone knows that Luo Feng has the highest authority in the Jin world. As long as the God King of Jin does not appear, he is the ruler there!

Just like the founder of the giant axe, Luo Feng remained tight-lipped about Chu Yang's affairs.

In the 20,000th era, Chu Yang created a race, a kind of flesh-and-blood life form that looks exactly like humans, but who can possess cosmic-level strength upon reaching adulthood.

This ethnic group is called "Sacred Sun".

In the primordial universe, this would be considered a top-tier race.

This made many powerful individuals realize that Chu Yang's life gene level had probably reached a very high level.

In the 60,000th era, a genius emerged from the Holy Sun Clan, rising to prominence. His name was Lu Huo, and Chu Yang personally took him as his disciple.

…………

In the 800,000th era, Lu Huo broke through to become the Lord of the Universe!

This has led many clans to vie for the opportunity to send their own geniuses to Chu Yang's tutelage.

However, Chu Yang remained in seclusion in Chaos City, ignoring the matter.

…………

One million nine hundred and ten thousand epochs later, the Lord of Darkness breaks through to become a true god!

The human race has produced its fourth true god! (End of Chapter)
