I just became the Pirate King, and you're telling me I also time-traveled at the same time.

Chapter 537 First Lesson! The 'Road Guide' and New Mysteries!

As Chu Yang finished speaking, the entire Chaos City suddenly fell silent.

Actually, there weren't many people studying here in Chuyang today, less than a thousand, and most of them were young core members.

As I always say, there are always some people who can't bring themselves to lower their pride or let go of their airs.

Although they were not present in person, they were all paying close attention to the situation at the Glass Pagoda.

Not only the immortals, but even the cosmic sovereigns are paying attention to this matter.

These cosmic venerables already regarded Chu Yang as an existence on the same level. Since Chu Yang was willing to give a public lecture, they naturally wanted to listen and see if they could learn something from it.

Besides them, there were the true powerhouses who weren't trying to steal his skills, but were simply paying close attention to Chu Yang.

In other words, nine out of ten people in Chaos are constantly keeping a close eye on the Glazed Pagoda.

Chu Yang chose to give his first lecture in public. The Glazed Pagoda had no restrictions, and anyone could freely observe it.

That's why his words just now silenced the entire Chaos City.

What a boastful tone!

This was the first thought that crossed everyone's mind, including even the Lord of Chaos City, Venerable Guiyi, and True King Yan, who all had high hopes for Chu Yang.

What are the prerequisites for leaving a Chaos Stele in Chaos City?

Become the master of the universe!

Even with Chu Yang's extraordinary talent, even though many people believe he will surely become the ruler of the universe in the future...

However, the path to becoming a strong person is destined to be fraught with difficulties. In addition to one's own talent, many external factors must also be considered.

Chu Yang's confidence, even bordering on arrogance, inevitably raises questions in people's minds.

Therefore, throughout history, there has been no prodigy who can compare with Chu Yang, but in certain eras, there are occasional geniuses who are hailed as unprecedented.

After all, the records and myths are there, waiting for future generations to break them!

But only a handful of them ultimately reach the top...

At the same time, people also know that Chu Yang's words in this setting mean that he is expressing his attitude to the five major powers.

He was telling the high-ranking officials of the five major powers, everyone else, and even the entire human race's leadership...

He will surely have a place among the future rulers of the universe!

Of course, after a brief moment of shock, people didn't pay much attention to the matter.

As I said before, Chu Yang's talent is undeniable.

Whether he succeeds or not, today's events will only become fodder for many people's casual conversation.

Some boasted because they witnessed a legend, others lamented Chu Yang's tragic end, and still others mocked and ridiculed him.

But no matter what, this isn't the main event today; the real key lies in Chu Yang's upcoming lecture.

If what he teaches is useless or doesn't live up to people's expectations of him, then what he just said will just be a joke.

What they didn't know was that Chu Yang was far more confident than they imagined!

Arrogance?

You should know that Chu Yang has already held back quite a bit!

In his view, the Chaos Stele he left behind would surpass the Giant Axe Chaos Stele and become the most dazzling of the fifty-two Chaos Steles!

Gathering his thoughts, Chu Yang sat back down in his chair, and the eleven immortal kings took their seats in turn.

On each of the eight floors below, there were between a dozen and several dozen people seated.

It is worth mentioning that hundreds of people were seated on the lowest, most spacious floor.

Without exception, all of these people were below the Immortal level. Some were already in Chaos City, while others obtained the opportunity to enter the Initial Universe and listen in by passing the core member assessment of the five major forces.

After Chu Yang sat down, he said softly, "Today I will be talking about the fundamental laws of time and space..."

These words immediately put everyone at ease.

Although they didn't have high hopes, thinking that Chu Yang hadn't even begun to comprehend the fundamental laws of space, he naturally couldn't offer them any guidance.

But hearing him say that now, it's hard not to feel a little hopeful.

Chu Yang continued, "First, there's the fundamental law of time. As everyone knows, among the existing fifty-two Chaos Steles, the Boundless Chaos Stele is hailed as having the highest upper limit in terms of time paths!"

"I have fully comprehended the Chaos Stele of Boundless Universe, but I cannot agree with the so-called limit of infinity..."

These words once again widened people's eyes.

Chu Yang's immediate rejection of the Boundless Chaos Stele was truly unexpected.

Chu Yang gently reached out and pressed his hand into the void in front of him. Everyone was shocked to discover that a palm print appeared in the space of each floor!

The palm print seemed to contain endless mysteries; staring at it for a long time, one could even feel the flow of time slowing down.

For some, it felt like a long dream, a thousand years in an instant!

"This is the final image on the Boundless Chaos Stele, containing 1086 profound mysteries of the fundamental laws of time!"

Chu Yang's voice startled everyone, and they all showed expressions of shock.

A mere palm print from a distance gave them a sense of time distortion. Is this really a power that an immortal could possess?

and also……

How is it possible that the other party was able to directly and concretely depict the ultimate mystery of the Boundless Chaos Stele?

Doesn't that mean...?

His mastery of the fundamental laws of time has reached the level of the Lord of the Universe.

Chu Yang waved his hand lightly, and the nine palm prints dissipated. Then he extended his index finger and tapped the void in front of him.

The next moment, a fingerprint appeared in the space of each floor.

The moment the fingerprint appeared, time stood still!

Everyone was perfectly conscious and could clearly feel that time had stopped.

Chu Yang said again, "This is my understanding of time!"

"At this stage, I have comprehended and mastered 108,000 profound mysteries of the fundamental laws of time!"

"And this number will continue to increase!"

Gasps of astonishment echoed throughout Chaos City.

Those who made these voices even included cosmic venerables and cosmic overlords!

The upper limit has been broken!

For a long time, in the eyes of those below the level of the Lord of the Universe, the Chaos Monument of the Boundless Universe has represented the upper limit of the path of the fundamental laws of time.

Even today, very few people can fully comprehend that handprint image.

Those who have truly understood this have either already perished or have become masters of the universe!

Lord Youhou was one of them!

But now, that ceiling has been broken!

It was shattered by an immortal god!

Chu Yang dispersed the fingerprints and said softly, "Today I establish my sect, and you are the first group of students to seek my guidance. Therefore, I will leave you with a 'travel permit'!"

After saying that, Chu Yang reached out and lightly tapped the void in front of him again.

Everyone felt a buzzing in their brains, as if their souls had been touched, and finally they realized that something had appeared in their minds.

Chu Yang chuckled and said, "Once you have grasped one of the main mysteries of the fundamental laws of time, you will be able to trigger this 'path guide'."

"Its effect will be no less than directly comprehending the first three diagrams of the Primordial Chaos Stele!"

"However, once this 'road guide' is triggered, it will only exist for a thousand years, after which it will naturally dissipate."

"How much you can understand depends on yourselves..."

Chu Yang paused for a moment, then continued, "Furthermore, after today, I will no longer teach any content related to the fundamental laws of time."

"If anyone wants to learn, they should comprehend the three thousand mysteries of the Hand Seal Diagram of the Chaos Stele of the Boundless Universe, and then come to me..."

To put it bluntly, the "road pass" that Chu Yang gave them today is essentially an "opening bonus," a small reward for those who were among the first to reap the benefits.

Those who hesitated, or those who previously disdained it, are destined to miss out.

From today onwards, anyone who wants to study under Chu Yang will need to pass a threshold, and an extremely high one at that!

The latter half of the Boundless Chaos Stele is notoriously difficult, and even many cosmic venerables have failed to comprehend its three thousand mysteries.

"Next, let's talk about space..."

Chu Yang changed the subject, saying, "As we all know, the fundamental laws of space possess three major mysteries."

"At the Immortal stage, as long as one can fully comprehend even one of its profound mysteries, one can reach the King level!"

"By combining these three, one can break through to the level of a Universe Venerable."

"What I'm going to talk about today is..."

A hint of a smile flashed in Chu Yang's eyes. "The fourth and fifth main mysteries of the fundamental laws of space!"

Everyone was stunned and looked completely bewildered.

This also includes those cosmic venerables and cosmic overlords who are secretly observing.

Inside the city lord's mansion, the Chaos City Lord, currently within the Chaos Ruins, frowned and then fell into deep thought.

Chu Yang said calmly, "These two profound mysteries are called 'Collapse' and 'Fusion' respectively. The former is somewhat similar to spatial strangulation, while the latter is similar to teleportation."

"Of course, the so-called similarity only means that they have certain commonalities."

"But the difference is that shattering is the ultimate offensive profound mystery, while fusion is the ultimate defensive profound mystery."

"The former, having reached the pinnacle of mastery, can manipulate spatial fragments!"

"The latter, when mastered to its peak, can make the universe share the damage for you..."

For the next day, Chu Yang talked about the matter, first explaining the two great mysteries, and then breaking them down one by one to explain the principles behind them.

This process was very complicated, and Chu Yang did not guide them in their comprehension.

Or to be more precise, this lecture contained absolutely no guidance or insight whatsoever.

Even so, everyone felt that the trip was worthwhile!

At first, they thought that the so-called two new mysteries of the fundamental laws of space were just a gimmick by Chu Yang.

But as I listened further, I realized that it was not simple at all.

Because mastering these two profound mysteries grants access to many core techniques that the other three profound mysteries do not possess.

Moreover, the principles Chu Yang mentioned were completely new to them.

This is truly unexpected...

Others who establish sects merely impart knowledge and skills, but Chu Yang…

It actually created a completely new school of thought!

It wasn't that Chu Yang didn't want to guide them in their understanding, but rather that he was completely ignorant of the fundamental laws of space.

Both of these new mystical interpretations come from Elsa and Cassia.

But that's not important, because on the path of understanding the laws, pointing out the direction is far more important than directly answering questions.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime!

As people left the Glazed Pagoda one after another, they were all somewhat reluctant to leave. Some even tentatively asked when Chu Yang would give another lecture.

The final result was...

The timing is uncertain, but it happens at least once every ten years!

This surprised many people, because in their view, the gains from attending Chu Yang's lectures were even greater than those from directly listening to the teachings of the Universe Venerable!

Such an opportunity is rare for them, perhaps even once in an entire era, but now they only need to wait a maximum of ten years.

In particular, the vast majority of people here do not have permanent residency rights in Chaos City; at most, they can only live here for a hundred years.

In other words, they would have ten opportunities to audit Chu Yang's lectures within a century.

Many people have even equated Chu Yang's lectures with comprehending the Chaos Stele.

Passing through the Heavenly Bridge only grants about twenty opportunities to comprehend the Chaos Stele. Now, this is equivalent to having ten extra opportunities out of thin air. Anyone would be overjoyed.

But while some were happy, others were sad. Those who didn't attend the class on the first day for various reasons were scratching their heads in frustration.

They knew that Chu Yang might not care about such things, but the eleven kings led by King Zhenyan would not easily let them enter the Glazed Pagoda.

Wanting to reap benefits directly without taking risks? It's not that easy.

Especially when they thought about how Chu Yang had given each student a "guide" on the first day of his lectures, they felt even more regretful.

Although the travel permit is of little use to them at this stage, who can say for sure what the future holds?

If they can break through to the Universe Venerable level, then this will truly become a guide for them to reach higher realms!

But it's too late to say anything now. All these people can do is start planning how to get past the True King and the others and then enter the Glazed Pagoda.

Not only that, even some cosmic venerables were tempted and even wanted to attend classes in the Glazed Pagoda.

The temptation is just too great!

The fundamental law of time is the key for them to reach higher realms, or even become the overlords of the universe!

Moreover, the new mysteries of the fundamental laws of space are equally alluring.

This point can be seen from the fact that Chu Yang's first lecture was able to make the Lord of Chaos City think deeply and even inspire him. It is like seeing the whole leopard through a tube!

After the first lecture, no one felt that there was anything wrong with what Chu Yang had said before the lecture.

They have the capability!

We have the confidence to back it up!

Let alone waiting until the future, even if Chu Yang left behind a Chaos Stele now, many people would probably still rush to try and comprehend it!

Perhaps Chu Yang's control over the fundamental laws of time is far inferior to that of the Lord of the Universe, but his understanding and comprehension of the fundamental laws of time have definitely reached the level of the Lord of the Universe.

Some even believe that when Chu Yang breaks through to the Universe Venerable realm, he will rapidly become a Universe Overlord and then break through to the Universe Lord realm at an unimaginable speed!

Even setting everything else aside, just considering his comprehension of the laws, Chu Yang already possesses some of the conditions to cross the threshold of becoming a universe master.

As for the claim that he has not yet comprehended the fundamental laws of space?

No one would think that someone who has comprehended the fundamental laws of time to such an extent would be stumped by the fundamental laws of space!

Many people even believe that Chu Yang's ability to propose a new and profound theory on the fundamental laws of space indicates that he may have already begun to comprehend them and has an extremely deep understanding of the fundamental laws of space!

Naturally, no one knew that Chu Yang's theories all originated from a newly born, unique life form...

That is, Elsa and Cassia! (End of Chapter)
