At this point, Wu Yun no longer bothered to linger as a domain master. There was no point anymore. He chose to break through directly to world lord.
After stabilizing his cultivation for three years, he attempted the breakthrough.
He succeeded.
Simulation complete.
Returning to reality once again, Wu Yun suddenly felt a strange resonance. He looked into the void and understood that, in an unimaginably distant place, a new incarnation had been born.
At the same time, his cultivation surged violently, forcibly rising from universe level all the way to first tier world lord. Within the same world system, absorbing cultivation from simulation greatly reduced his need for bitter training.
After fully absorbing the memories from the simulation, Wu Yun could not help but feel a trace of emotion.
In his final years, he had joined the Divine Hall of Immortals, gaining a much deeper understanding of the Blood Luo Continent.
What the city lords of the world cities knew was only the tip of the iceberg.
The Blood Luo Continent was different from subsidiary races like the Golden Horned Tribe. They had never truly submitted to humanity. For countless ages, they had been in constant conflict, even capturing outsiders from the heavens for research.
They studied spacecraft, various technological artifacts, and even enslaved universe level trial participants to serve as training tools for the geniuses of the Divine Hall.
All of them believed that one day they would break through the blockade of the outer universe races, and even counterattack to seize territory.
Only Wu Yun knew how absurd that idea truly was.
Even if they produced a Universe Master, so what?
If not for the fact that these beings were still considered human by origin, figures like the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master or other Universe Masters would have long since wiped out their Immortals and lords, then taken control of the rest.
This simulation made Wu Yun desire power even more deeply.
In any world system, only strength is the eternal truth. This was his own heart of a strong path.
Plans had to change.
Originally, he intended to make a name for himself through the peak genius battle. Now that he was already a world lord, he naturally had to adjust his direction.
With a flash, Wu Yun tore through space and left the planet. He planned to find a way to join either the Virtual Universe Company or the Great Axe Dojo.
Although the identity of "Bai Ye" had been stable, he had no intention of continuing to operate under it.
Staying under the Blood Demon King's territory offered no future. No matter how talented or powerful one was, a single stroke of bad luck could turn them into a Blood Demon Warrior.
After a long journey through space, Wu Yun finally arrived within the territory of the Ganwu Cosmic Nation. He stored his spacecraft and changed his appearance once more.
Previously, he had used Bai Ye's appearance. That body shape and look differed greatly from a human from Earth, and he was not fond of it.
Ahead of him lay a massive planet.
Its diameter exceeded one million kilometers, larger than an entire prefecture of the Great Xia Dynasty.
This planet was called Chenyan Star, one of the nine primary administrative planets of the Ganwu Cosmic Nation. Trillions upon trillions of beings lived there.
Such a colossal planet was artificially constructed. Even Immortals resided there for long periods.
Millions of kilometers outside Chenyan Star, automated systems were already screening incoming spacecraft. Any vessel not registered within the Cosmic Nation was immediately intercepted.
Wu Yun's spacecraft was not registered, but as a world lord, once he released his aura, the staff immediately treated him with respect.
Even landing at the docking port went smoothly. Personnel politely guided him and answered all his questions.
Chenyan Star was too large and too prosperous. Wu Yun did not extend his spiritual sense. He did not want to alert any hidden experts.
Although the Ganwu Cosmic Nation had no king-level immortals, it still had many marquis-level immortals. Wu Yun was not certain whether they could detect his spiritual perception.
Following the planetary map, he arrived at the administrative center.
He needed to register for citizenship first.
However, the moment he released his aura upon entering, the staff nearly fainted from shock. It was the first time they had ever seen a world lord come to apply for citizenship.
"He must be a hidden expert from some great faction, only now emerging after reaching world lord…"
"Stop talking nonsense. If the supervisor hears you, your salary will be docked."
After Wu Yun left, the staff burst into discussion. Even in Chenyan Star, where strong experts were common, world lords were still rare.
After completing citizenship registration, Wu Yun finally gained access to a personal account in the Virtual Universe.
The Virtual Universe was wondrous. Without citizenship, even the strongest beings could only use anonymous accounts.
Once inside, Wu Yun began studying recruitment notices from major organizations. The Great Axe Dojo, the Universe Galaxy Bank, and others were all recruiting across the cosmic nation.
He planned for his Blood Luo Continent incarnation to enter the Virtual Universe Company, while his main body would join the Great Axe Dojo.
Although he possessed all the memories of his Blood Luo incarnation, he could never truly treat himself as a native. Rising higher was the natural path.
Cultivation in this world was not just about realms. External resources mattered just as much. He had to eventually leave this world.
Of course, if he became strong enough in the future, he would also feed resources back to the Blood Luo Continent.
"Recruitment for external supervisors at the Great Axe Dojo."
Wu Yun entered the application channel. The system immediately verified his strength. The minimum requirement was domain master level.
Soon, a communication request arrived.
"Wu Yun, you want to join the Great Axe Dojo?" An elderly man with white hair appeared on the screen. His voice was hoarse, but his aura was not weak.
"Yes," Wu Yun said with a faint smile. "But I only see recruitment for external supervisors. What are the requirements to join the internal ranks and become a core member?"
Internal and external members were very different.
He was specifically referring to core membership, which meant entering a cultivation secret realm.
For star and universe level cultivators, entry into such places was relatively easier.
Even Hong had entered the elite training camp of the Great Axe Dojo and eventually became part of the core.
But once reaching world lord level, simply comprehending a law of origin was not enough. One had to at least be able to survive under an immortal while still a world lord. The strongest among them could even rival marquis-level immortals.
"To enter the core of the Great Axe Dojo?" the old man sneered. "First, obtain recognition of a law of origin. Even then, you are not guaranteed entry."
"If you can become a world lord-level Axe Warrior, then come speak to me again."
With that, he ended the call.
He had seen too many delusional world lords like this. Newly advanced ones rarely understood their own limits.
"Looks like I've been looked down on."
Wu Yun rested his chin on his hand, a faint smile appearing.
"This level of difficulty doesn't seem that high."
