Chapter 460 - 217: Re-entering Lola Mountain

What a flex!

A total flex!

Looking at Chen Yu, Dean Feng was speechless.

This rate of growth was simply unheard of.

’I’m afraid even the Firmament Emperor back in his day was no different...’

Law Perfection...

’Is he going to attempt to form a Supreme Divine Kingdom?’

The Supreme Divine Kingdom was the biggest hurdle to becoming a Great Emperor. Once that step was taken, as long as one didn’t die, there was a seventy percent chance of becoming a Great Emperor.

’If a Great Emperor were to emerge from my academy in the future, the influence would be legendary!’

"Chen Yu, when do you plan to set off?" Dean Feng asked, looking at him.

Chen Yu thought for a moment. "In a few days. I’m not in a hurry."

Dean Feng blinked. "In that case, how about you take me with you?"

Chen Yu nodded. "Yes, that’s no problem."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on the old dean’s face.

"Then it’s settled. I’ll go tell the others to head out first."

Chen Yu nodded. Dean Feng didn’t linger and promptly left.

Watching Dean Feng’s departing figure, Chen Yu’s gaze shifted toward the outskirts of the city.

’I haven’t been to Lola Mountain in a long time. I wonder if this Capital City Anomaly will have any surprises.’

The thought flashed through Chen Yu’s mind. He then looked at Sophie, who was standing beside him. "If anyone comes looking for me, just tell them I went out for a walk."

Sophie nodded. "Yes, Lord Human."

Without another word, Chen Yu’s figure flickered and vanished from the spot.

Sophie stood at the manor gate, watching Chen Yu disappear before turning around and re-entering the manor.

...

「Capital City, Lola Mountain.」

Chen Yu’s figure appeared before the space-time gate of the Lola Mountain Anomaly.

The first time he had come to the Lola Mountain Anomaly was when he represented the academy at the Superpower Conference.

Times had changed, and everything was different now.

Returning now, he was already a Cosmic Venerable.

The Lola Mountain Anomaly was still the same Lola Mountain Anomaly, without any significant changes.

A powerful Array sealed the space-time gate, but in his eyes, this Array was practically nonexistent.

"Greetings, Senior Chen Yu."

A voice suddenly rang out as four or five figures appeared from nearby.

Chen Yu looked over. The leader was a middle-aged man, followed by four young men.

They wore matching uniforms.

’The Abyssal Administration Bureau...’

Chen Yu recognized them at a glance from their uniforms.

This group was entirely composed of personnel from the Abyssal Administration Bureau.

The people in charge of managing the Abyssal Realms.

The five of them hurried over to Chen Yu, their faces filled with excitement.

"Senior Chen Yu, what brings you here?" the middle-aged leader asked, looking at Chen Yu with a mix of nervousness and excitement.

Chen Yu glanced at the five of them, his expression calm. "I came to have a look. I’ve been in seclusion for a long time and wanted to take a walk through an Anomaly Realm."

"I see..." The men came to a sudden realization.

The middle-aged man rubbed his hands together and said with a beaming smile, "It’s no problem at all for you to walk through the Lola Mountain Anomaly, Senior Chen Yu. Is there anything we can do for you? If so, please don’t hesitate to ask. We will do our utmost to serve you."

Chen Yu shook his head. "No need. I’m just going in to have a look. Thank you for your hard work. Here are some Celestial Spirit Pearls. Split them among yourselves."

As he spoke, over a hundred Celestial Spirit Pearls flew out and landed in each person’s hands.

Hearing this, the five men were overjoyed and knelt in unison. "Thank you for the reward, Senior Chen Yu!"

"Mm, keep up the good work. Your talents are quite good. You have the potential to advance further," Chen Yu said with a nod.

After speaking, he took a step forward, passed straight through the Array sealing the Abyss gate, and entered the Lola Mountain Anomaly.

Only after Chen Yu stepped into the Lola Mountain Anomaly did the men snap back to their senses.

They looked at the Celestial Spirit Pearls in their hands, their faces alight with excitement and joy.

Celestial Spirit Pearls!

This was a top-tier cultivation resource.

And Chen Yu had given them over a hundred in one go.

To a True God, this might not even be a drop in the ocean, but to them, it was an absolutely massive resource.

It might even be enough for them to break through to the next level.

"A True God... This is the first time I’ve seen one up close. Senior Chen Yu is truly Extraordinary," one of the young men said, his face full of excitement.

"Of course! I heard Senior Chen Yu cultivates even faster than the Great Emperors of the past. He’s the one most likely to become a Great Emperor since the Firmament Emperor."

"If only I had one-tenth of his talent, I might have a chance of becoming a True God."

"Forget it. If I had even one percent of his talent, I’d wake up laughing from my dreams."

"Boss, should we report that Senior Chen Yu entered the Lola Mountain Anomaly?" another young man asked.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man turned and slapped him on the back of the head.

"Report it? Are Senior Chen Yu’s affairs something you’re qualified to report? The Senior already said he just wanted to take a walk after a long seclusion. Don’t be nosy."

"Alright, we’ll just pretend we didn’t see anything. The Senior’s reward is a fortunate opportunity. Don’t turn it into a disaster."

"The boss is wise!"

The men all nodded in unison. They gave the Abyss gate one last, reluctant look before leaving.

...

「Lola Mountain Anomaly.」

Chen Yu stood atop a large mountain, his gaze fixed on the distant scenery.

Entering the Lola Mountain Anomaly for the second time felt completely different from the first.

With a scan of his Divine Thought, he could grasp the entire situation within the Lola Mountain Anomaly as if it were in the palm of his hand.

Inside the Lola Mountain Anomaly, there were only a few hidden Level 9 Mutant Beasts.

Chen Yu eliminated them casually.

As for the other Level 7 and Level 8 mutant beasts, he didn’t bother to clear them out.

Given the amount of Source of Life he currently needed, these mutant beasts held no appeal for him unless they formed a top-tier beast tide.

After all, he couldn’t just devour them all in one go.

The Lola Mountain Anomaly was rich in resources and abundant in Spiritual Qi. It was also a future training ground for the Superpower Academy’s students.

Leaving some behind for them to train against was necessary.

His main purpose on this trip was to see if he could find a World Tree.

Not all of these anomalous space-times could give birth to a World Tree.

The conditions for a World Tree to form were also very stringent.

They couldn’t form in just any Space-Time Anomaly.

And even if one did form, finding it would depend on luck.

If not for the special circumstances in the Mayan Space-Time, where he had to destroy the world because of its connection to Hell, he would never have discovered that World Tree.

Whether or not he would encounter one here in the Lola Mountain Anomaly was a complete unknown.

’Trying to find it with a Divine Thought Force Field is nearly impossible. Why not try to use the World Tree in my Divine Domain to sense it?’

The thought flashed through his mind. At this, Chen Yu immediately began to communicate with the World Tree in his Divine Domain.

While he was cultivating the Laws, Chen Yu had already formed a special connection with the World Tree.

Using this connection, he could release some of the world’s power.

As for whether he could sense a World Tree in the Lola Mountain Anomaly, he didn’t know.

Perhaps one hadn’t been born here at all.

He would only know after experimenting.

He opened his hand, and a small, crystalline, emerald-green sapling appeared in his palm.

A miniature World Tree, manifested from the world’s power.

Communicating with it through his mind, the small sapling in his palm began to emit a soft, shimmering light.

RUMBLE!!!

As the fluctuations of the world’s power spread out, thunder and lightning instantly filled the entire Lola Mountain Anomaly.

Streaks of lightning danced like serpents, creating an apocalyptic scene that was utterly terrifying to behold.
