Standing at the peak with the winds howling.

"I'm finally at the peak." Luo Feng gazed down at the vast land below, thinking, "The sector lord primal sky mountain, this is a benchmark for countless geniuses in human history. Only after conquering it can one stand amongst these geniuses. I'm currently standing alongside the strongest of geniuses. However, a genius is just a genius, not a true strong warrior yet."

"One day…"

"I will stand at the peak of the universe!"

Feeling his fighting spirit rush, he made a vow, back on earth when he was still weak he took on this path, for not only his family, but also for his dream! This warrior's path, he had dreams and feelings for, it was impossible for anyone to take any path without such feelings.

Shua!

He vanished from the peak of sky mountain.

******

At the heavenly bridge, on the beautiful center island, the watchman Bevin stood there for trillions of years, guarding the front.

Shua.

Luo Feng appeared there, causing Bevin to immediately smile, "Your majesty Luo Feng, it's been so long since I last saw you."

"Haha, it has been long indeed. I missed you Bevin, hence I came again." Luo Feng joked.

Bevin said curiously, "You seem very confident, which level are you aiming for this time?"

"To whichever I can, hopefully I get to fight the 21st level." Luo Feng said.

"21st level?" Bevin was stunned, "You at least have to pass the 20th level first to do that, don't tell me…"

Luo Feng smiled, "Is there anyone at the Nine universe bridge?"

"No." Bevin said.

"Very good."

Luo Feng smiled.

Sou!

He flew straight towards the Nine universe heavenly bridge. Bevin watched him go, as he muttered to himself, "That's too much confidence. He's only trained for so few years, yet he seems confident he can pass the 20th level, hm? There's a mail? Ah, and not just one."

Bevin opened his mail and got a huge shock!

"What, he passed the sector lord primal sky mountain!" Bevin stared wide eyed, turning back to face the Nine universe bridge, "Looks like he'll really get to fight it out with the 21st level guardian."

******

The upper echelon of the Virtual Universe Company were the first to know of such news.

Within Primal chaos city, amidst the primal chaos wastelands, the city leader exclaimed as he sat crossed legged. "Luo Feng's improvement speed sure is fast, to be able to pass the sky mountain." This was no surprise to him. Even though Luo Feng had mentioned before that he had the law comprehension to pass the 20th level.

But passing the 20th level of the bridge was only one prerequisite to passing the sky mountain, it wasn't assured that he would definitely pass it! Because during battle, many other factors come into play, such as techniques, amplification, spirit energy, willpower etc!

"His success will definitely quell all earlier fights and competitions. They all said that Rong Jun had a limitless future, and that my disciple couldn't compete with him. This time, they'll definitely be speechless." The city leader smiled and nodded.

...

Above Blood river continent, the powerful fortress Tian Shi palace that stood over the continent for countless ages.

This silhouette seemed to have countless illusions about. He was one that stood high in the Virtual Universe Company, with countless warriors respecting him, the Tian Shi palace leader. He laughed out loudly, resounding throughout the palace, causing all the sector lords and even undyings on the 1st and 2nd level to be shocked. They didn't know why he was so happy.

"Good job!"

He gazed into the vast space, smiling, "The Huge Axe Dojo and Universe 1st bank punks, they all bet on Rong Jun! Back then I said Luo Feng was the one! Even when he was accepted as the Primal chaos city leader's disciple, they still didn't admit defeat! They even said that becoming a disciple only changed his status, and it didn't mean he was stronger. Back then when Luo Feng passed the domain lord sky mountain, they didn't care…thinking that it didn't mean anything."

"Now they definitely have to admit their defeat."

"The sector lord primal sky mountain represents the strongest of geniuses! This means that his law comprehension is only one step away from the knight level. Even though Rong Jun's improvement is extremely fast, compared to Luo Feng, it's much slower." The leader was incredibly gleeful.

Back then, the upper echelon of humanity, be it the Virtual Universe Company, the Huge Axe Dojo, the Universe 1st bank…all of them were debating about Luo Feng and Rong Jun.

How high were their perspectives? Even though Bolan's initial talent far exceeded theirs, his weakness in character made it so that it would be hard for him to reach high, unless he fixed it. Luo Feng and Rong Jun were different, as Luo Feng had his terrifying willpower and mental state. Such a genius…even if he didn't improve fast, he would constantly grow and finally become an absolute warrior.

As for Rong Jun, he was even more special!

The upper echelon of humanity were all placing bets on these two! Beings like the Tian shi palace leader, or even high universe masters, their bets would naturally be absurd. When Luo Feng returned from Blood river world back then, the leader couldn't help but give him some pointers as well.

...

While the city leader and the Tian Shi palace leader were celebrating, some others were sighing in despair.

"We actually lost, Rong Jun cannot compare to this genius."

"Rong Jun is too much of a disappointment."

"We can't blame him, Luo Feng's improvement is just too crazy. We all knew that he would have high achievements, but we'd never expect him to improve this fast! In another million years, there's no doubt Rong Jun would become an emperor pinnacle. He even has a certain possibility of becoming a knight."

The beings all sighed.

...

The news of Luo Feng passing the sky mountain swiftly spread, shocking countless warriors, and making those that were unhappy before submit!

How could they not?

He had already conquered the highest benchmark of humanity's geniuses…sector lord primal sky mountain! Every genius that did so…when they became undying, would become emperor limit, even maybe invincible emperor. Their chances of becoming a knight were extremely high as well.

******

Virtual universe Yu Xiang mountain, within a restaurant.

A white armored Bolan and a tall and sturdy Rong Jun walked together into the booth. There was already someone inside…Wu Ka!

"Haha, you've come. Sit, sit." Wu Ka smiled.

The two of them sat down.

"You can all leave." Wu Ka ordered the staff.

"Yes."

The staff left respectfully out the door, leaving only these three behind.

"You all know about it?" Wuka helped to pour the wine.

"Hm." Bolan nodded.

"I thought the distance had been shortened, who'd expect it to get even further." Rong Jun's voice was heavy. After close to 10,000 years, his energy had grown tremendously, and the overpowering energy emanated from his bones. This energy was one of solitude strength, yet it wasn't detestable.

Wu Ka sighed, "Back then, we were the Absolute beginning brothers, you, me and Luo Feng. Luo Feng was the first to enter the primal region, and you too Rong Jun. Your improvement speed gets faster and faster. Back then as a domain lord primal region member, you were number one. With that you rose to sector lord and became a sector lord primal region member."

Bolan and Rong Jun were both primal region sector lords!

Bolan had changed after his revision back then, he began to display his genius ability as a genius of 10,000 eras, improving at an incredible rate! Right now, he was already a sector lord!

As for Rong Jun.

He wasn't too fast initially, however as they all grew, his speed grew faster and faster. Later on, he was even faster than Bolan! And his speed kept growing. It was so fast it left many stunned. Back then when Luo Feng had already become the disciple of the Primal chaos city leader, only thing was he hadn't displayed any achievements since then.

Some had said that the most exceptional genius of this group should be Rong Jun!

Even though they were both primal region sector lords, should they have a qualification battle, Bolan would probably be knocked out into the absolute beginning region. Rong Jun however would still be able to stay within the primal region!

"Too fast, his improvement speed is too fast." Rong Jun shook his head and sighed. "Over these 8,000 years, I thought the law comprehension would get harder towards the end, and that Luo Feng's speed would definitely slow down. However…"

"To surpass him, there's only one way." Bolan said coldly.

Wuka and Rong Jun looked at him immediately.

Bolan said coldly, "Become a knight! Otherwise, we'll always be below him!"

"Unless we become a knight, we will never surpass him." Rong Jun nodded.

"We'll work hard together." Wuka lifted the wine glasses, "My aim is to become an emperor, you two will become knights, we'll do it."

"Work hard."

"Work hard."

Rong Jun and Bolan lifted their glasses.

The three of them toasted.

As they discussed, another piece of news came over.

"Hm?" The three of them read their mails.

"He's passed the 20th level of the heavenly bridge?" The three exchanged glances before sighing. It was true, that Luo Feng passing the sky mountain meant that he had the ability to pass the 20th level of the heavenly bridge. However, to truly get the news, it still made them sigh, because…

From the 20th level to the 21st, there was just one step left.

Finishing this step meant he could become a knight!

...

Standing at the bridge amidst the darkness, there was only one winding bridge that extended far into the void. Luo Feng continued to fly along this void. He had just passed the 20th level and was heading to the 21st.

"The guardian of the 21st, he has the comprehension of a knight."

"I want to see if a sector lord's world energy will be able to fight against a knight's law comprehension." His eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
