Luo Feng, Hong, Thunder God, Rong Jun, and Bolan all had solemn expressions, their minds filled with various conflicting thoughts. They were well aware of Qin Hao's strength and his rapid improvement in recent years, but a soul secret method was simply too dangerous.
After all, even as geniuses, they focused more on cultivating and comprehending secret methods; creating them was still a distant goal. Even Rong Jun, who was already creating his own cultivation technique, was still far from success.
Now, Qin Hao claimed he would use his self-created soul secret method to help them comprehend. This felt incredibly unbelievable to them. After all, the Virtual Universe Corporation had no shortage of secret methods, and many of them were soul secret methods.
There were many for defense, attack, and support, but they had never heard of one that could help others comprehend laws.
"Soul secret method?"
Guiyi Venerable was also drawn in by Qin Hao's words at this moment. A soul secret method that could help improve comprehension—even he, as a Venerable, had never heard of such a thing before. However, Qin Hao's rapid improvement in recent years made him feel some anticipation for this so-called soul secret method.
In just a few short years, Qin Hao had significantly shortened the time it took to comprehend the essence of the Time Law and Space Law, and his progress was too obvious. Even when guiding him, he was very surprised by why Qin Hao was progressing so quickly.
Even a World Lord Rank would find it difficult to fully comprehend these last few essential laws of the Time Law and Space Law in such a short period. Furthermore, he had been continuously observing Qin Hao's process of challenging the Heavenly Bridge.
The application of secret methods and the creation of new secret methods were definitely not things that could be accomplished in a short time. He did not doubt that Qin Hao could create new secret methods, but creating secret methods based on the essence of the Time Law and Space Law in just a few short years was very difficult.
After all, behind a secret method lay profound accumulation, as well as a high degree of application and understanding of the essence; it was not something that could be achieved by simple analysis.
"I am willing to give it a try." Hong was the first to answer. After a brief period of thought, Hong made his decision. Subsequently, Thunder God also nodded. With both of them agreeing, Luo Feng also chose to trust Qin Hao without hesitation.
Finally, only Bolan and Rong Jun remained, still deep in thought. Qin Hao was not angry at their hesitation. Soul secret methods were inherently somewhat dangerous, and their relationship with Qin Hao was far from reaching the complete trust that Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God shared.
After a brief moment of thought, the Three God Ancestors, based on their long-standing interactions with Qin Hao, believed that since Qin Hao had proposed it, he must have confidence. Furthermore, all of them were from Earth and knew that Qin Hao would not do anything unfavorable to them.
"I am also willing to give it a try." After some thought, Rong Jun also made his decision. Finally, Bolan looked at the four of them and then nodded.
"The secret method I am about to perform is named Dream Enlightenment. Using soul power as a guide, I will create an illusory world for you, allowing your souls to split and enter this world to comprehend laws. You will spend a thousand years within the secret method, and after it ends, your souls and consciousness will experience a certain impact, so you must be mentally prepared."
Qin Hao explained the secret method in detail to the five and told them some precautions. Then, Qin Hao's soul power was released, the Ten Great Laws were mobilized, and the surrounding primordial chaos qi began to gather. An illusory world gradually took shape, enveloping Luo Feng and the other four.
The five's souls instantly sank into the illusory world, their soul power continuously splitting into streams of light, entering the world and transforming into various living beings.
The five's souls were not as powerful as Qin Hao's, and the number of divisions they could make was very limited. As Psycher Masters, Luo Feng, who had the strongest soul power, only managed to divide into 40 soul avatars. Hong divided into 35, Thunder God 30, Bolan 30, and Rong Jun 28.
"What an incredible secret method!"
After Qin Hao performed the secret method, Guiyi Venerable also walked out, standing beside Qin Hao and exclaiming.
"Senior."
Qin Hao saw Guiyi Venerable and respectfully bowed.
"Let's go, come with me to the City Lord's Mansion. You have completed the teacher's test, and now it's time to meet the teacher." Guiyi Venerable said, strolling towards the City Lord's Mansion.
Qin Hao quickly followed. The Dream Dao Comprehension Secret Method had already been performed, and he didn't need to do much more. He just needed to wait for the soul power maintaining the secret method to be consumed, and the secret method would naturally disappear, and Luo Feng and the others would emerge from the illusory world.
Qin Hao quickly followed Guiyi Venerable to the City Lord's Mansion, entering the inner mansion unimpeded.
"The one stationed in Primordial Chaos City is the teacher's killing avatar, with a fiery temper, so you must be respectful," Guiyi Venerable instructed before entering the Chaos Ruins.
"Yes, Senior."
After speaking, the two entered the Chaos Ruins. A person three meters tall, wearing ancient, complex dark-red battle armor, sat there. Beneath a pair of fiery red horns was a fierce face covered in secret patterns, and a scaled tail extended from beneath his battle skirt.
The aura he casually exuded was one of intense killing intent, causing Qin Hao to feel a suffocating sensation and his mind to be greatly impacted. However, Qin Hao quickly recovered from the shock, but he still felt a lingering fear.
"Is this the peak powerhouse of the human race? The aura he casually emits is already so powerful?" Qin Hao thought to himself, and at the same time, his desire to become stronger intensified.
"Not bad, a 90-fold gene level, and a 3000-fold gene avatar. Your opportunities are considered top-tier even among the human race." Primordial Chaos City Lord spoke, his voice cold with a hint of approval. "Since you have completed my test, I now ask you, are you willing to take me as your teacher?"
"Greetings, Teacher." Qin Hao did not hesitate, directly bowing and kneeling, respectfully saying to Primordial Chaos City Lord. As the strongest in the Virtual Universe Corporation and a peak powerhouse and grand manager of the human race, Primordial Chaos City Lord was worthy of respect, both in terms of strength and character.
Having such a teacher was also a guarantee for Qin Hao.
"Very good. This treasure is called the Soul Calming Pearl. It is a supreme treasure that can guard the soul; even a Venerable's soul attack can be resisted." Primordial Chaos City Lord said, and a gray pearl appeared in his hand. "If you encounter danger in the future and things become unmanageable, this treasure can resist and give you enough time to self-destruct your soul. As long as you are not enslaved, you can be saved."
After speaking, the gray pearl floated in front of Qin Hao. Qin Hao looked at the Soul Calming Pearl before him, feeling somewhat surprised. Qin Hao, who had read the original work, was aware of Primordial Chaos City Lord's selflessness. He had not expected to be directly bestowed a supreme treasure now.
One must know that even for a Venerable, supreme treasures were rare, yet now one was given to a mere Universe Rank.
