Chapter 19 The Calm Before the Storm

Virtual universe, in a private training room.

"Master, the preliminaries of most universe countries have ended. This is a piece of information sent by Jinlan Dojo, which contains the most dazzling super talents of other universe countries." The auxiliary optical computer 'Alice' quickly unfolded a nine-square grid screen in the air.

On the nine split screens, the wonderful battle scenes of super talents were playing one by one, and at the same time, there was some basic information about each genius on the side of the screen.

"'Sky Fire' of Jiuyan Universe Country, Canmeng of Youyuan Universe Country, 'War Emperor' of Xuanming Universe Country..." Lu Ming's eyes swept through the information of these super talents, but his eyes were very calm.

This calmness comes from the confidence in his own strength!

"Master, it is generally acknowledged that the most powerful person in this talent battle should be the genius from Xuanming Universe. His title is 'War Emperor' and he is an extremely powerful warrior."

"In addition, the illusionist genius 'Canmeng' from Youyuan Universe is also very threatening. Even if the 'War Emperor' encounters this person, he may be in danger. Once the soul defense secret method cannot resist his soul attack, he will fall into a situation of being at the mercy of others..."

While Lu Ming calmly checked the intelligence of the top talents in the major universes, his intelligence had already entered the sight of other top talents. However, the information recorded in that intelligence was only about him five years ago.

Now that five years have passed, that intelligence has long been outdated.

...

In Fengyan Universe, at the center of an elliptical galaxy, a huge supermassive black hole dominates the operation of the entire galaxy.

Not far from the edge of the black hole's accretion disk, there is a huge planet. The entire planet has almost become a magma ball under the influence of the active core.

There is a castle above the magma ocean. Inside the castle, an elegant girl in a red dress is listening to the explanation of a female world master who is also elegant.

"... Miss Tiffany, this time in the Jinlan Universe, a genius who is threatening you has appeared. His title is 'Demon God'. Like the 'War Emperor', he is a warrior. However, he is good at the law of the origin of lightning and the law of the origin of time. In addition, the secret method and weapon he uses are..."

"Oh? Being able to integrate the law of the origin of time into his own field, this demon god should not be underestimated. Moreover, this guy is the youngest one. After five years, his progress will definitely not be small. He may indeed become a strong enemy." After listening to all the information about Lu Ming, the girl in the red dress also had a serious face.

The female realm master smiled and continued: "Miss, you have comprehended the origin of fire and the origin of space to a very high level, and the blood-edge divine weapon you use has both attack and speed characteristics. When facing such a pure warrior, you are still relatively advantageous."

"On the contrary, the illusionist of the Youyuan Universe Kingdom has no one who can see the limit of his soul attack ability. If you face him, you must be more careful." The female realm master carefully reminded the girl in red skirt.

"My "Flame Soul" secret method is almost practiced to the third level. I have the confidence to block the illusion attack of this "Remnant Dream"!" The girl in red skirt seemed very confident in her soul.

"Then I wish you to finally enter the "Original Secret Realm"." The female realm master had an expectant smile on her face.

At the same time.

In the Sky Universe Kingdom, a vast divine kingdom.

In the empty temple, a blue-haired young man with blue flames all over his body and two strange tentacles on his forehead was mumbling names: "...'Sky Fire' Feike...'War Emperor' Kun Zhou...'Demon God' Lu Ming...I, Boros, will definitely defeat all of you!"

The unwavering voice contained his strong belief.

...

Soon, the finals notification email of the Virtual Universe Company was sent out, and the participating teams of major cosmic countries quickly began to gather.

In the virtual universe, a floating island above the Jinlan Continent.

Swish!

Lu Ming appeared at the teleportation point of the floating island.

"Mr. Lu Ming, please come this way." A cosmic-level warrior standing next to the teleportation point, wearing work clothes, smiled and pointed to a path next to him.

"Thank you." Lu Ming smiled and nodded, and then walked directly along the road.

A moment later-

Lu Ming saw a large group of people gathered in a square surrounded by beautiful flowers and plants not far away. At first glance, there were hundreds of people, both men and women, with different looks.

"The devil is coming."

"The big devil!"

Many young men and women looked over.

"Lu Ming, hello, my name is Irena. Whether our Jinlan Universe can achieve good results in the genius competition this time depends entirely on you, the 'big devil.'"

A petite girl with long chestnut hair suddenly walked up to Lu Ming and greeted him with a smile.

"Miss Irena, you are too kind." Lu Ming looked at the chestnut-haired girl and just nodded lightly.

Irena saw that Lu Ming had no intention of talking to him, so she could only retreat in disappointment.

She originally thought that she could attract this peerless genius with her status and appearance, but now it seems that she thought too much.

"Irena, I told you long ago that Lu Ming is a genius that you can't possibly like. Look at me, I'm not bad either..." After seeing the chestnut-haired girl's failed attempt to flirt with him, an honest and simple green-haired young man immediately came over to comfort her.

"Saren, I don't want to talk to you now!" Irena ignored the green-haired young man and walked into the queue of other female geniuses.

Seeing such a farce on the spot, Lu Ming couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

Suddenly -

"Boom!" An invisible pressure covered the entire square, and the faces of a thousand peerless geniuses turned pale and their bodies trembled slightly.

And because Lu Ming had undergone a transformation in his will before, he really didn't feel anything special about this kind of consciousness pressure that was just aimed at the star level.

Under the gaze of Lu Ming and many geniuses, a handsome man with blond hair, wearing golden armor, and even wearing a golden cloak came out.

Although this handsome man did not specifically target anyone, the slight aura that naturally emanated from him was enough to make people dare not look directly at him.

Of course, this did not include Lu Ming.

"According to the order of the king, I will lead the team in this genius battle." The voice of the golden armored god continued to echo throughout the square: "You can call me Jiuyue God General, or just call me Lord Jiuyue."

Jiuyue God General's eyes swept over everyone and finally fell on Lu Ming: "Lu Ming, you are the most hopeful and surest person among the people of my Jinlan Universe Country who will not be eliminated."

"The king has high expectations for you. Don't let the king down, understand?" Jiuyue God General's blue eyes met Lu Ming.

"Understood." Lu Ming's eyes were calm and he nodded respectfully.

Although the King of Jinlan did not directly accept him as a disciple, he did provide a lot of guidance and help for his cultivation.

After Jiuyue God General nodded with satisfaction, he glanced at the others and said in a cold voice: "As for you, do your best to strive to enter the top 1,000 in the universe!"

After that, Jiuyue God General did not care whether these geniuses were dissatisfied or not, and continued in a cold voice: "Now, everyone follow me!"

Soon, this group of peerless geniuses from various star regions of Jinlan Universe, led by Jiuyue God General, teleported at the same time and came to a new plane opened up in the virtual universe.

This is a vast continent.

There are 1,008 buildings, and in the center is a beautiful square with birds singing and flowers blooming. At this time, there are many young men and women from various universes walking and chatting on the beautiful square. At a glance, there are at least more than 100,000 people.

The team of Jinlan Universe was arranged in Building 0513. Jiuyue God General, wearing golden armor, led the team to fly to the square.

"Land!" Jiuyue God General roared.

The team of geniuses from the Jinlan Universe Kingdom quickly landed at the edge of the square, and then walked along the road directly to Building 0513. The square had a dedicated passage leading to each building.
