The difficulty increases most significantly on levels one through seven. Level one is self-explanatory, level three is extremely difficult to encounter in the universe, and level five is a mechanical puppet race that is on par with humans.
As for the Zerg hive on the seventh level, it is extremely difficult for other races to achieve immortality as world masters in the primordial universe, but it is a basic operation for the Queen.
Fifth floor!
A large mechanical experimental base, the ground of which is entirely paved with alloy, and standing on the alloy ground of this experimental base are 100 humanoid mechanical puppets, each eight meters tall and covered in silver.
Mechanical golems are a type of combat weapon built by the Machine Race.
Every member of the Mechanical Race is an intelligent life form; each of them can be considered a control terminal, and each can form a mechanical kingdom! And the 'Mechanical Puppet' is one of the combat units within this mechanical kingdom.
Although the fifth floor only has a mere hundred mechanical puppets, with the support of the mechanical base, the power these mechanical puppets can unleash is astonishing.
Upon sensing the intruder's presence, 100 towering mechanical puppets activated their energy, their eyes emitting red light as they instantly locked onto the distant human—Lu Yunhe.
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
The mechanical puppets instantly transformed into lightning as they ran, some even flying directly into the air while running, while others unleashed various orbital and laser weapons.
Although there were only one hundred mechanical puppets, their combined power was greater than that of ten thousand blood-haired mammoths.
"It seems that even the second level of the Primal Divine Weapon—the Profound Dao Style—is not enough."
Lu Yunhe pondered in his mind that the reduction in the number of enemies meant that the individual strength was stronger, so the power he needed to exert also had to be increased.
However, although Lu Yunhe was able to use the third level of the original divine weapon - the Tunnel Style, the reason was still that his basic strength was insufficient, resulting in imperfect control.
It should be noted that even a regular divine weapon at the third level is considered invincible at the cosmic level, let alone a primordial divine weapon capable of activating the Ten Great Laws.
However, in this situation, even the slightest imperfection becomes the biggest weakness, and the fragile body dares not make the slightest mistake.
"In that case!"
With a flick of his wrist, Lu Yunhe's divine weapon instantly split into two, becoming two slightly thinner longswords. He then pointed one sword at the sky and the other at the ground.
At the same time, the air currents that were originally intertwined, symbolizing the fundamental laws, instantly split into two, with the lighter part rising and the turbid part falling.
The fundamental laws of time, along with wind, thunder, and light, and the fundamental laws of space, along with the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth), instantly separated the two major factions of the primordial universe.
In an instant, the two incredibly powerful superior domains seemed to show signs of forming.
In the Devouring Starry Sky, the relationship between domains and laws is completely reversed between the two superior laws and the eight fundamental laws.
Generally speaking, one should first comprehend the domain and then try to understand the corresponding fundamental law.
However, for the two supreme fundamental laws, one must first fully comprehend the fundamental laws before one can possess the corresponding law domain.
For Lu Yunhe at this moment, although he was far from the realm of the higher-level fundamental laws, he could still simulate a trace of the power of the higher-level fundamental laws by combining and arranging the basic laws under the corresponding system.
Limited by his low cultivation level, even if he uses all ten laws at the same time, it is not necessarily stronger than using them separately in many cases, such as Duan Yu's Six Meridian Divine Sword.
Forcibly controlling the distribution and arrangement of the ten laws, Lu Yunhe's mental will had reached a certain limit. The next moment, heaven and earth met.
"The world was turned upside down, transforming into a primordial wasteland!"
Bang!
As if the heavens and earth were collapsing, Lu Yunhe charged directly into the mechanical puppet with the primordial power of the universe.
Bang bang bang!
These mechanical puppets are immune to any mental attacks; to defeat them, one must rely on a more powerful physical attack.
Coincidentally, Lu Yunhe's physical attack at this moment was subtly exceeding a certain limit. Each collision of the two divine swords could easily tear apart the mechanical puppet's defense and break the chip located at its core.
This move, which transforms the world into chaos, can be considered Lu Yunhe's self-created secret technique, which was created by referencing a large number of secret techniques and combining them with his own situation.
However, unlike Rong Jun, Lu Yunhe, although he created a secret technique, mainly focused on creating a framework rather than creating a complete move. He only needed to continuously fill in the gaps and climb higher on this secret technique.
Faced with Lu Yunhe's attack, which surpassed the limits of the stellar level, the hundred mechanical puppets were completely unable to withstand it, and in the end, the entire base was also destroyed.
Sixth floor!
Among the ten colossal star beasts named "Cang," the first-ranked among the "metal-attribute" star beasts is naturally the "Golden Horned Beast," one of the twelve pinnacle bloodlines of star beasts. And the second-ranked is "Cang"! Although it's only a difference between first and second place, their actual combat power is vastly different.
When the Golden Horned Beast reaches its peak, it becomes a Realm Lord.
When Cang grows to his peak, he will reach the level of a Domain Lord!
The ten colossal star beasts before us, 'Cang', are about 300 meters long, with tails almost as long as their bodies. Their entire bodies are covered in dark gold scales, and there are sharp, upright protrusions on their backs.
Its head was enormous, and its wide, blood-red maw was chilling, with each tooth possessing incredible biting power. Beneath its bald head, covered only in scales, were a pair of huge, triangular eyes with cold, bloodthirsty pupils.
Their massive size of 300 meters makes these cosmic behemoths extremely difficult to kill. Fortunately, their true cultivation level is only at the stellar level, and they still retain the weaknesses that behemoths typically have.
With his self-created secret technique, the destructive force equivalent to the collision of two stars could still inflict devastating damage on the cosmic behemoth.
After killing ten giant star beasts, Cang, Lu Yunhe was covered in blood, but it wasn't from Cang's attack; rather, it was from using excessive power that his body couldn't withstand.
This can be considered the price for forcibly using power; the only injury in the entire Trial Tower was actually caused by himself.
Of course, he wasn't worthy of being injured in the first six trial towers, and he dared not be injured in the seventh trial tower. If he was even touched, it would mean that he had failed to climb the tower.
The seventh trial tower, the seventh floor, is also the last floor of the entire trial tower.
The Zerg hive, hundreds of meters tall, instantly released three thousand Green Mantises and three hundred Blood Mantises. Each Blood Mantis led ten Green Mantises to form a squad, guarding the hive and repelling the enemy.
These Zerg units are not particularly strong individually, but they are abundant, with the mother hive spawning a new wave of Zerg every 20 minutes.
Of course, the mother nests in the Trial Tower have been adjusted, since the fertility of real mother nests wouldn't be this poor, but it's highly unlikely that you'll encounter a star-level mother nest.
Seeing the ever-increasing number of Zerg soldiers, Lu Yunhe had no intention of attacking; he simply reunited the divine weapons that had been separated in his hands.
The eight-colored primordial laws flowed continuously from Lu Yunhe's body, only to be imprisoned in one place by heaven and earth.
"What is he doing?"
Looking at Lu Yunhe, who remained motionless, the geniuses in the square were also somewhat puzzled. Before the Zerg army had grown to a considerable size, it was the best opportunity to attack.
However, given the disparity in skill between them, no one offered any mockery or doubt. Instead, they all held their breath and awaited this final battle.
Lu Yunhe didn't attack, which pleased the Queen Mother even more, and she frantically produced soldiers. As time passed, the Queen Mother's Zerg army began to take shape.
It wasn't until the number of Zerg soldiers increased to 100,000 and the Queen Mother stopped conceiving that the Zerg began to attack Lu Yunhe.
"One hundred thousand!"
Looking at the 100,000-strong insectoid army, Lu Yunhe's lips curled slightly. He swung the divine weapon in his hand at an extremely slow speed, and the dissipated law energy began to flow back into his body.
The next moment, Lu Yunhe's entire body began to show signs of decay, and his eyes went blank.
Serve as a soldier!
At this moment, Lu Yunhe transformed his body into the primordial universe to encompass the power of the Ten Laws, and then released control over the primordial laws, allowing them to operate spontaneously.
In an instant, Lu Yunhe's fragile body was torn apart by the power of the primordial laws, just like a chaotic egg, and his whole body was like a furnace about to be destroyed.
Just then, a domain lord-level consciousness, two levels above the stellar level, descended, forcibly controlling the furnace to forge the divine weapon in its hands, directly sacrificing itself to the primordial divine weapon, and then stabbing towards the distant Zerg mother hive.
Buzz!
The Zerg soldiers along the way tried to resist, but as soon as they got close, their dissipating power tore them to shreds.
Seeing Lu Yunhe approaching, the Zerg Queen panicked and tried to use a mental attack.
LOL, Lu Yunhe's soul is burning right now. Mental attack? What are you going to attack?
"The mighty army has crashed into Buzhou!"
Amidst the Queen Mother's desperate cries, a chaotic-colored longsword struck the Queen's nest as if Gonggong had angrily rammed Buzhou Mountain.
Seventh Trial Tower, seventh floor cleared!
……
Chapter 103 The Battle of Geniuses: Top 1000
"Tower climb successful!"
As Lu Yunhe emerged from the Trial Tower, he looked at the complete string of numbers on the points ranking and felt a slight stirring in his heart.
In the final attack that burned everything, the Zerg Queen was the first to be killed. However, he had just completely lost consciousness, so according to the virtual universe system's judgment, he passed all seven trial towers.
"I'm a little tired!"
Maintaining his consciousness at a high level with all his might, Lu Yunhe was exhausted even though his consciousness had reached the Domain Lord level. After all, the difficulty was not in exerting greater power, but in how to prevent his stellar-level body from being injured.
"God of Slaughter... God of Slaughter!"
The moment Lu Yunhe emerged, the many geniuses who saw the change in points couldn't help but cheer after a brief silence.
After all, such a battle of geniuses is a rare event that might only happen once every million epochs. Even just participating as a background character would be enough to be etched into one's life.
"I'm not as good as him!"
Berlan gripped the blood-red longsword tightly in his hand, not joining the cheers of the crowd. After all, as the second-place winner of the Genius Battle, he still felt somewhat conflicted.
"But I will definitely catch up with you!"
Berlan's eyes were incredibly firm; only by acknowledging the gap between them could a true warrior be considered to have truly understood the difference in their abilities.
Through Lu Yunhe's challenge video, Bolan realized that unless a miracle occurred, he had no chance of defeating his opponent.
However, as a martial artist, he believed more in his sword than in miracles. Yes, he really couldn't win.
"They actually managed to pass all seven trial towers; this is something that hasn't happened in nearly a million epochs."
"He can actually use the Divine Weapon Primal, and he has even reached the second level. I never thought that someone could comprehend the Ten Fundamental Laws to this extent at the Stellar level."
"The most crucial thing is his consciousness and will. As long as he doesn't perish, his final achievements will probably far surpass those of you and me."
The immortals chattered amongst themselves, then turned their gazes to Thirteen: "Thirteen, your Qianwu Universe Kingdom really got a great deal this time."
"Where, where!"
If it weren't for the need to maintain the composure of an immortal deity, Thirteen would have even been unable to resist laughing out loud a few times: "Oh, right, don't forget our bet."
……
"Come with me, all of you!"
After Lu Yunhe finished his tower challenge, the immortal powerhouses each took back their 1000 geniuses.
In the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, Lu Yunhe ranked first in the Genius Battle points, Luo Feng ranked third, Rong Jun also reached the top twenty, and Hong also entered the top 5000. They will all stay to participate in the next one-on-one qualification battle, while the Genius Battle for the rest of them will end here.
