Chapter 312 Giant Axe, Will You Take on Apprentices?
"good!"
Chen Yuan smiled: "Then you can wait for news with peace of mind. I will inform the higher-ups of the human race about this matter first."
"This matter will probably require the founder of the Giant Axe to personally travel to Earth and reverse time to examine Earth's past in order to confirm it."
"Reverse time and space!" Luo Feng took a deep breath. Is this the power of the strongest human?
So he nodded and said, "I understand."
"Of course, I'll also ask if it's possible to find a strong person to be Hong and Thor's teacher."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "If all goes well, Hong might have a chance to become the master of the founder of the Giant Axe."
"Hmm, Thor might be a bit lacking. Let me ask if any ruler of the universe is taking on disciples."
"The founder of the giant axe! The master of the universe!" Luo Feng was overjoyed. In that case, his eldest brother's future achievements would definitely be remarkable, and the probability of his second brother's growth would also be greatly increased.
"I'll leave this to you, Chen Yuan," Luo Feng said gratefully.
"No big deal, we're all from the same planet." Chen Yuan waved his hand. "Wait for my news."
After discussing the arrangements for Earth, the two left the Shiyuan Palace. Chen Yuan also took his leave, preparing to visit several other old friends first.
At the same time, he logged into the virtual universe and sent an email to Giant Axe.
Since their meeting at Chaos Ruins, Chen Yuan has added the contact information of several high-ranking officials, making communication much easier. At least he no longer needs to go through Teacher Darkness as an intermediary.
Meanwhile, the founder of Giant Axe was preparing for the Supreme Meeting when he suddenly received an email. Upon closer inspection, he discovered it was from Chen Yuan.
"What's up with this little guy now?"
Realizing that they hadn't even been apart for half an hour, Giant Axe curiously opened the email, only to find it read: "Giant Axe, are you taking on apprentices?"
"??"
Giant Axe looked puzzled. Did this email mean that Chen Yuan wanted to recommend a disciple to him? Or did it mean that Chen Yuan wanted to become his apprentice?
That shouldn't be the case. This little guy has already apprenticed to the strongest one, so why would he want to find another one? — So, are you recommending other people to him?
He knew the human race's geniuses very well, and so far, none of them had captured his heart.
Out of curiosity, Giant Axe dialed Chen Yuan's number and, after the call connected, immediately asked, "Little guy, what's the deal with this email?"
"It means exactly what it says." Chen Yuan smiled. "Giant Axe, I know a peerless genius and would like him to become your apprentice."
"A peerless genius? How genius?" Giant Axe asked疑惑地, "Who are you talking about?"
"He's a core member of your Giant Axe Arena, a cosmic-level member," Chen Yuan said with a mysterious smile. "His name is Hong."
"flood?"
Giant Axe quickly retrieved specific information about Hong, then frowned slightly. "A cosmic-level member of the 'Martial Arts Secret Realm'? He's the peerless genius you spoke of?"
The Martial Arts Realm is the second-ranked realm in the Giant Axe Martial Arts Arena, second only to the first-ranked Giant Axe Realm, and its status is equivalent to the Primordial Realm of the Virtual Universe Company.
Over the past few centuries, Hong has participated in nearly ten ranking battles in the secret realms, advancing directly from the lowest level secret realm to the second-ranked Martial Arts Secret Realm, a remarkable improvement.
It was precisely for this reason that Hong did not rashly attempt to break through to the Domain Lord level.
Not only because it would be difficult for him to maintain his current status and treatment after breaking through to the Domain Lord level, but also because Hong wanted to push further at the Universe level and strive to enter the most core 'Giant Axe Secret Realm'.
However, whether it was the Giant Axe Secret Realm or the Martial Arts Secret Realm, they were all the same to the Giant Axe; there were no geniuses that amazed him.
"Chen Yuan, this 'Hong' seems to have a very ordinary resume. He's cultivated for hundreds of years and is only at the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge."
Giant Axe shook his head slightly. "Only a King would value such talent. Are you trying to recommend him to me?"
"There must be a reason why I dare to recommend a genius to you."
Chen Yuan smiled slightly, not bothering to keep him in suspense, and said directly, "If I told you that this 'Hong' possesses an extremely strong will, capable of clearing the 20th level of the Illusionary Sea with a soul level comparable to the universe, wouldn't such talent make him worthy of being taken on as a disciple by your Giant Axe?"
"You're saying this Hong can clear the 20th level of the Illusionary Sea? That's impossible!"
Giant Axe's tone became visibly surprised, then he quickly shook his head: "No, Hong's Illusionary Sea records show that he only passed the tenth level."
"That's because the other party has been hiding their true abilities."
"Hiding his talents? Why is that? Wait, is this Hong also from Earth?" Giant Axe suddenly realized, and exclaimed in surprise, "Is there something special about Earth that he doesn't want to reveal?"
"You guessed right." Chen Yuan nodded and said directly, "Earth—is actually a planet created by my other teacher, Zuoshanke, with the aim of guiding a race with special talents in mental will."
"If you don't believe me, you can go to Earth yourself and reverse time to see the past."
"If it's him, then it's indeed possible." Giant Axe's eyes were thoughtful. "First there was the Flame God Clan, then Earth. This strongest being seems to be experimenting with something. Does he want to create a pinnacle race?"
"I don't know about that." Chen Yuan shook his head. "I only know that after creating the Yan God Clan and Earth, Teacher Zuoshanke let us develop freely and stopped interfering."
"But I won't lie to you about the effects on Earth."
After a pause, Chen Yuan continued, "Actually, my reason for contacting you this time was not only to recommend Hong, but also to discuss cooperation with the human race."
"Cooperation?" The giant axe gave a slight indication. "Related to Earth? Do you intend to sell Earth to your race?"
"How is that possible!" Chen Yuan shook his head repeatedly. "It's not selling, it's renting!"
"I plan to lease out the reproductive rights of Earth for the strong of the human race to purchase."
"Moreover, it wasn't me who sold it; Luo Feng was the one who negotiated with those human powerhouses, and all the profits from the sale went to Luo Feng."
"As for me," Chen Yuan said calmly, "my job is simply to protect Earth and ensure that ownership of Earth remains in the hands of Earthlings."
"..."
Giant Axe gave Chen Yuan a deep look, then nodded: "I understand."
"Don't worry, as long as you're here, I can guarantee that the ownership of Earth will still belong to Earthlings."
"As for the special abilities of Earth that you mentioned, I still need to witness them with my own eyes."
After a pause, the giant axe continued, "And that genius of will you recommended, 'Hong,' if he can indeed pass through the 20th level of the Illusionary Sea, then I will personally take him as my disciple."
"That would be best." Chen Yuan smiled. "At this point, Hong should already be venturing into the Illusionary Sea."
During the time he was communicating with Giant Axe, he had already sent a message to Hong, mentioning the matter of becoming a disciple and instructing him to immediately venture into the Illusionary Sea and do his best to clear as many levels as possible.
In fact, it's not just Hong, even Thor is the same.
This former second-in-command of Earth has, due to his long-term presence on Earth, become somewhat mediocre in his understanding of the laws, falling short of Hong's level and being considered at the sixth level of the Tongtian Bridge.
Unlike Hong, Thor has already advanced to the level of Domain Lord, and is now at the sixth level of Domain Lord!
Thor is not even a core member of any top power now. Even his qualification in the Illusionary Sea was temporarily granted to him by Chen Yuan through his own authority.
However, his experience of guarding Earth for hundreds of years has also elevated Thor's state of mind to a higher level. According to Chen Yuan's estimate, he is at least at the level of the Illusionary Sea, which is more than ten levels.
"I see him." Giant Axe was also watching Hong, replying as he looked, "There's another young man in the Illusionary Sea, progressing quite quickly. Is he also from Earth?"
Clearly, Giant Axe had discovered the temporary access Chen Yuan had granted to Thor, and understood that besides showcasing Earth's uniqueness, Chen Yuan was also trying to sell him two geniuses with exceptional mental states.
"Yes, and this bald guy is called Thor. He is the second most powerful being on Earth in terms of willpower, after Hong."
Chen Yuan explained, "Don't be fooled by his lack of understanding of the laws; it's because he hasn't received proper training. As long as a powerful figure is willing to take him on as a disciple, becoming a Universe Venerable will be a piece of cake for him in the future."
"Hmm." Giant Axe nodded slightly, but his mind was clearly not on Thor. Instead, he focused his attention on Hong, his tone slightly surprised: "This Hong—his mental will is so special. He's practically a born master of illusion."
Upon seeing the expression and tone of the giant axe, Chen Yuan smiled slightly.
He knew that as long as he could get the giant axe to notice Hong's performance, the other party would most likely be tempted, since he had already taken this disciple in the original story.
As for Thor, his mental cultivation is somewhat inferior to Hong's, so I guess Giant Axe wouldn't think much of him. I'll ask Giant Axe later if any Universe Lords are willing to take him as a disciple. If he can become a disciple of a Universe Lord, then Thor's future won't need to be a worry.
Of course, if no one is willing to take him in, he can always ask Senior Brother Youhou for help. Out of respect for him, Senior Brother Youhou should be willing to take in the Thunder God.
So the two of them talked on the phone while using their respective permissions to observe the situation in the Illusionary Sea.
After receiving Chen Yuan's message, Hong clearly relaxed. No longer concealing his spiritual realm, he charged forward from the tenth level, almost unstoppable, to the eighteenth level before gradually slowing down, but still determined to move on to the next level.
In contrast, Thor's performance was considerably worse; his speed noticeably decreased after passing the tenth floor, though he didn't stop.
Instead, they took one step at a time and sprinted deeper into the unknown.
In the end, Hong passed through the 20th level of the Illusionary Sea, just like in the original story, but was defeated on the 21st level. As for Thor, he passed through the 16th level but was defeated on the 17th level.
"Good, this Hong is really good, just my type." After watching Hong's performance, Giant Axe smiled and said, "Chen Yuan, thanks to you this time for discovering such a genius."
"So, it seems you're planning to take Hong in?"
Chen Yuan smiled and then enthusiastically promoted another genius: "What about this Thor? He was able to pass through the sixteenth level of the Illusionary Sea, and his willpower is comparable to that of a high-ranking Marquis. He is also a rare genius."
"The key is that this genius has never received formal training and is still a rough diamond. If you don't think he's good enough, you can ask the universe master of the Giant Axe Arena if he's good enough for you."
"This Thor is indeed quite good, with a very solid foundation." Giant Axe nodded slightly. "However, taking Hong is enough for me. As for Thor, I'll ask Xu Jin if he wants to take him."
Almost a second later, Giant Axe said, "Xu Jin has also seen Thor's performance. He is very satisfied and has agreed to take him on. He should be sending emails by now."
"That would be perfect." Chen Yuan smiled.
Compared to the original story, Thor only became a disciple of the Lord of Void Gold. Now that the Lord of the Universe has accepted him as a disciple, his future growth will surely be much smoother.
Chen Yuan understood that Xu Jin was willing to accept Thor because of Giant Axe, so he bowed slightly and thanked him, saying, "Thank you for this, founder of Giant Axe."
"Not at all, no need to be so polite." Giant Axe waved his hand with a smile. "I am very satisfied with the disciple you recommended to me. I didn't accept him just because of you."
"By the way, I've arrived on Earth and am currently reversing time to look back at Earth's past."
"Have we arrived already? That was fast," Chen Yuan thought to himself. "Is this the power of a universe's strongest being to make their words come true? A single thought can teleport them to any corner of the primordial universe. What a convenient ability."
A moment later, the giant axe said with a look of surprise, "I have traveled back to the history of Earth billions of years ago and finally found the figure of the Mountain-Sitting Guest."
"Chen Yuan, you're right. This life-bearing planet was indeed created by your teacher, the Mountain Hermit."
"I don't know what method he used, but it's as if he refined the Earth into a treasure." Giant Axe shook his head as he spoke. "I don't understand. After being refined, this Earth is no different from an ordinary life-bearing planet. It would even explode if it faced an immortal blow."
"However, after the planet explodes, it will reassemble under some inexplicable influences, and the newly born life on the planet will still be affected, possessing special talents in terms of will."
"Incredible treasure-refining techniques!" the giant axe exclaimed. "I'm starting to believe that the Star Tower from beyond the realm was created by this person; it's simply divine skill."
Chen Yuan laughed: "Giant Axe, you said you wouldn't fight for ownership of Earth, so you can't go back on your word now."
"Don't worry, I won't go back on my word." Giant Axe took a deep breath, glanced at Chen Yuan again, and smiled slightly, "Compared to Earth, you, Chen Yuan, are more important."
"Earth? At most, it's worth one top-tier treasure. But as long as you, Chen Yuan, are here, it means a continuous stream of top-tier treasures."
The giant axe shook his head. "I can still tell which is more important."
"By the way, about that 'renting out Earth and selling reproductive rights' thing you mentioned earlier, how are you going to do that?" Giant Axe asked curiously, "How many reproductive slots are there?"
"I plan to build an island in the center of the ocean as a breeding base for the human race." Chen Yuan smiled slightly. "As for the quota, there will be one hundred quotas in each batch, and the fee is one hundred million Hunyuan Units."
"As for the timing, only pregnant women can enter Earth, and they can wait until the baby is three years old at the latest, after which both mother and child must leave Earth."
"Anyway, that's been enough time for the souls of those babies to be successfully transformed, so there's no point in them staying any longer."
Chen Yuan looked at the giant axe: "What do you think?"
