After the leader of the Immortal Guard, Jakes, departed, Wang Yi turned his focus to the treasure trove. The silence of the chamber was broken only by the faint hum of his advanced computer system. He tapped the screen with precision, opening the "Secret Techniques" section, his mind set on a singular goal. Typing "Galaxy Sword Catalog" into the search bar, he hit enter.
A soft chime echoed through the room, and a new window appeared on the screen.
The "Galaxy Sword Catalog" Secret Method:
Exchange Cost: 80,000 points
30% discount for the Primal Secret Realm
20% discount for the Secret Realm of the Beginning
10% discount for the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm
Full price for the End Times Secret Realm
Wang Yi frowned, his brows knitting together.
"The Floating Snow Sword Manual costs just 800 points. The Galaxy Sword Catalog is 100 times more expensive?!" he muttered, incredulity creeping into his tone. The stark difference in cost felt absurd. His gaze lingered on the screen as he debated the decision.
Despite the steep price, he reminded himself of the manual's origins. Created by Kedi, a genius unparalleled in the history of the universe, this was no ordinary technique. Kedi was a name etched into legends, his accomplishments spoken of with reverence. Born once in billions of eras, his talent was such that even the most formidable warriors had sought his wisdom.
Gritting his teeth, Wang Yi resolved to proceed. "Sometimes, sacrifices are necessary for greatness," he thought. "To understand the 'Universal Chaos Stele' faster, this investment is essential."
Wang Yi's thoughts wandered to Kedi's illustrious life. From the universe level to domain master and finally to world master, Kedi had ascended through the ranks with unprecedented speed. His feats, like effortlessly conquering the Primal Tongtian Mountain, had left other races trembling. During his time as a world master, Kedi's ability to slay immortals level being was nothing short of miraculous. The competition among Universe Lords and Venerables to take him as a disciple was fierce, yet it was the City Lord of Chaos who ultimately succeeded.
Even the renowned Lianluo, creator of the "Floating Blood Sword Manual," seemed insignificant compared to Kedi. Wang Yi's admiration deepened as he recalled these stories.
"Kedi was undoubtedly the most dazzling genius in human history," Wang Yi mused. "To comprehend even a fraction of his techniques would be extraordinary."
With determination, Wang Yi issued the command to exchange his points for the "Galaxy Sword Catalog."
"Transaction successful!"
Points deducted: 56,000
Remaining balance: 34,300
Delivery status: Pending
A message appeared: "Please wait. The secret manual will be delivered shortly."
Wang Yi leaned back, relief washing over him. "Fortunately, I'm a newcomer in the Primal Secret Realm," he muttered. "If I were in the Secret Realm of the Beginning with only 10,000 points, this would've been impossible."
The stark difference in resources and privileges between the secret realms was glaring. It was no wonder that every aspiring warrior fought tooth and nail to rise through the ranks. The Primal Secret Realm was not just a status symbol; it was a gateway to unparalleled opportunities.
A soft beep interrupted his thoughts. Bermuda, his AI assistant, perched on his shoulder in the form of a small black-and-white robotic sphere, announced cheerfully, "Master, there is an incoming communication request."
"Take it," Wang Yi instructed.
A holographic screen materialized before him, revealing an elderly man clad in a white robe. His flowing beard and calm demeanor exuded wisdom, and the surrounding space seemed to brighten in his presence.
"Your Highness Wang Yi," the man began with a warm smile. "This is Ai Tuo, overseer of administrative affairs in the Primal Secret Realm. I've received the secret manual you requested. Please confirm receipt."
"Understood. I'll retrieve it immediately," Wang Yi replied, his expression brightening.
Minutes later, Wang Yi returned with a silver-white suitcase. Its surface gleamed under the chamber's light. He placed it on his desk and unlatched it with care. Inside, neatly stacked volumes radiated a soft, star-like brilliance. Each volume bore golden inscriptions in the universal lingua franca, marking it as both precious and rare.
Wang Yi's eyes widened in astonishment. "220 volumes!" he exclaimed. "For a foundational manual, this is extraordinary. I can only imagine how much material an advanced technique contains."
Curiosity propelled him to open the first volume. As his eyes scanned the pages, he was immediately captivated by the profound knowledge within.
Introduction to the Universal Chaos Stele
Comprehension of the Laws of Time and Space
The Practice of the Galaxy Sword Catalog
Each section was a revelation. Wang Yi's understanding of the universe deepened as he read about the "Universal Chaos Stele," which contained ten intricate illustrations, each corresponding to specific floors of the Tongtian Bridge. The first three illustrations alone held the key to conquering the 21st floor and ascending to the rank of Universe Venerable.
"The 108 essences of space and the 108 essences of time… they're all perfectly interpreted here!" Wang Yi's excitement grew with each passage.
The first illustration, the "Nine-Star Diagram," detailed 18 essences of time and space. The second, the "Star Map," expanded to 36, while the third, the "Hundred-Star Map," delved into 72 more complex essences. Each was a gateway to higher understanding.
Wang Yi sighed. "It's a shame I'm still in route to the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters. It'll take three years before I can see the 'Universal Chaos Stele' in person. Still, this catalog provides a solid foundation."
Immersing himself in the text, Wang Yi felt as though a new world had been unveiled before him. The insights were transformative. He realized that his previous understanding of the laws of time and space had been shallow.
"Kedi… your brilliance is unmatched," Wang Yi murmured. "But your early demise is a reminder. I must avoid your mistakes."
Time seemed to stand still as Wang Yi delved deeper into the "Galaxy Sword Catalog." Each page was a journey, each chapter a revelation. Determined to master the techniques and ascend to greatness, Wang Yi's resolve burned brighter than ever.
