Primal Sky Mountain was extremely famous within the human race.
Especially among the various geniuses and powerhouses.
Because Primal Sky Mountain represented the limit of a given realm.
Those who managed to pass it were basically geniuses who appeared only once in tens of millions of eras.
A Universe Level challenger needed at least the law comprehension equivalent to the twelfth level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge to pass Primal Sky Mountain.
A Domain Lord Level challenger needed at least the comprehension equivalent to the sixteenth level.
A World Master Level challenger needed at least the comprehension equivalent to the twentieth level.
Absolute Beginning Sky Mountain was somewhat easier, but only by comparison.
A Universe Level challenger needed at least the eighth level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge.
A Domain Lord Level challenger needed at least the twelfth level.
A World Master Level challenger needed at least the sixteenth level.
Finally, there was Heaven and Earth Sky Mountain. Its difficulty was the lowest, but for members of the End Era Secret Region, it was still incredibly hard.
A Universe Level challenger needed at least the fourth level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge.
A Domain Lord Level challenger needed at least the eighth level.
A World Master Level challenger needed at least the twelfth level.
Right now, Luo Fan could easily pass Absolute Beginning Sky Mountain.
But the difficulty of Primal Sky Mountain was simply far too high.
Even the Domain Lord Level challenge of Absolute Beginning Sky Mountain only equated to the law comprehension of the twelfth level.
Meanwhile, the Universe Level challenge of Primal Sky Mountain already required comprehension equivalent to the twelfth level.
For Domain Lord and World Master challengers attempting Primal Sky Mountain, the difficulty was even higher.
Even the World Master Level challenge of Absolute Beginning Sky Mountain equated only to the law comprehension of the sixteenth level.
How great was the gap between World Master and Domain Lord?
Realm difference wasn't the biggest factor.
The greatest difference was the speed of comprehending laws.
After breaking through to the World Master Level, one could communicate with the Source Origin of the universe.
At that point, the speed of law comprehension became the fastest possible.
After breaking through to World Master, one's speed in comprehending laws could be a hundred times faster than that of a Domain Lord.
Even Immortals, or even Venerables—
If they had not been acknowledged by the corresponding origin law, their comprehension speed might not necessarily surpass that of a World Master.
And for the Domain Lord Level challenge of Primal Sky Mountain, the requirement was the same as the World Master Level challenge of Absolute Beginning Sky Mountain.
What did the sixteenth level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge represent?
It was equivalent to a Marquis Immortal.
And not even an ordinary Marquis Immortal—
It corresponded more or less to a high-level Marquis.
Passing the fifteenth level already meant comprehension similar to a normal Marquis Immortal.
But the Domain Lord challenge required comprehension equivalent to a high-level Marquis Immortal.
This alone showed how difficult it was to become the personal disciple of the Icepeak Lord.
As for the World Master Level challenge of Primal Sky Mountain, one needed law comprehension equivalent to the twentieth level.
The twenty-first level equated to the comprehension of a Venerable.
Which meant that to reach the twentieth level, one needed the limit-level comprehension of a King Immortal.
That required mastering the final profundities of the three fundamental Space Origin laws: teleportation, spatial tearing, and spatial sealing.
The Blade of Tides King's law comprehension only reached about that level.
As for Grandor, he could not even pass the twentieth level.
Grandor was only a Peak King Immortal.
He had only mastered two profundities of the Space Origin laws.
And Grandor had lived for who knew how many billions of years.
So Luo Fan's task was extremely difficult.
The Blade of Tides King, who had been excited earlier, instantly became irritable upon hearing the requirements.
This condition was simply too difficult.
At this moment he desperately tried to think of how to help Luo Fan achieve the law comprehension equivalent to the sixteenth level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge while still at the Domain Lord Level.
After all, mastering three profundities at the World Master Level was far too difficult.
He didn't try to figure it out alone. Instead, he dragged Luo Fan toward the residence of the Kaitian Venerable. (TL/N: Kaitian is heavencleaver Venerable. AKA Tideblade king Teacher or MC's grandmaster)
His own knowledge wasn't broad enough.
But his teacher, the Kaitian Venerable, had immense experience.
The Blade of Tides King pulled Luo Fan along and once again stood before the Kaitian Venerable.
Seeing Luo Fan, the Kaitian Venerable revealed a gentle smile.
"What did the Icepeak Lord summon you for just now?"
Luo Fan once again explained everything in full detail.
He also told the Kaitian Venerable all of the Icepeak Lord's conditions.
Hearing this, the Kaitian Venerable frowned.
The conditions were indeed harsh.
Even he himself had not passed Primal Sky Mountain before becoming an Immortal.
Back then, the Kaitian Venerable had also been considered a once-in-tens-of-millions-of-eras genius.
But before becoming an Immortal, his strength was at most comparable to a normal Marquis Immortal.
He could only kill some Immortal Battalion Commander-level opponents.
Even so, he had already mastered spatial sealing and spatial tearing while still a World Master.
Yet even with that level of comprehension, he could only flee when encountering Peak Marquis Immortals, let alone King Immortals.
And the Kaitian Venerable had a rather explosive temper.
Being forced to flee from someone with lower comprehension than him made him furious.
So he stopped suppressing his realm and directly broke through to Immortal.
After all, he had already been acknowledged by the Space Origin law long before that.
Breaking through wouldn't slow his comprehension.
Upon breaking through, he immediately became a King Immortal.
Thus, he never challenged Primal Sky Mountain back then.
After Luo Fan finished speaking, the Blade of Tides King immediately asked:
"Teacher, is there any way for my disciple to reach comprehension equivalent to the sixteenth level of the Sky-Piercing Bridge while still a Domain Lord?"
The Kaitian Venerable frowned.
"Law comprehension must be understood by oneself."
"Unless he uses certain heavenly treasures, or increases his genetic level."
"But…"
The Kaitian Venerable had seen Luo Fan the moment he arrived and could tell Luo Fan's genetic level was not low.
But without seeing his actual combat ability, he could not determine Luo Fan's genetic level precisely.
Hearing this, the Blade of Tides King also frowned deeply.
His precious disciple improving his genetic level was extremely difficult.
His own genetic level wasn't even as high as his disciple's.
He split off a strand of consciousness to inform Grandor of the situation.
He wanted to see whether Grandor knew of any medicine that could help Luo Fan.
But Grandor also had no solution.
There were indeed potions that could increase one's law comprehension speed.
But such potions were impossible for him to prepare.
These potions worked only because of their rare ingredients.
Ingredients they could not afford.
Such treasures were coveted even by Venerables.
