Swallowing the Stars: The Puzzle of Everything!

Chapter 104 Sacrificial Runes, Writing the Code of Heaven and Earth

Upon hearing Perseus's explanation, all the powerful figures present smiled slightly.

"So that's how it is."

"I was worried before that if we only transformed one person and then let him combine with someone of the same race, it might cause a downgrade in bloodline. But now it seems that I was overthinking it," a rugged-looking king on the right laughed.

"By uniting two people from the same clan, the advantages of their bloodline can be preserved to the greatest extent possible."

Kasha couldn't help but frown. "Is that so?"

"Although it's only at the Hengxing level, the life gene level of this bloodline is more than 30 times higher. Wouldn't the birth rate of such a bloodline be...?"

"Kasha, you don't understand the situation of my people, or rather, you don't fully understand it—"

The deity Pue shook his head. "What do you think the Jade Vein Spirit Body is?"

"It's just a divine body amplification technique..." Noticing the expressions of the many kings, Kasha's voice grew softer and softer.

The priest Pue interrupted, "Yes and no."

"Our Yanji lineage is most adept at perceiving the universe. From our perspective, the laws are actually another form, which is why there are sacrificial runes. Once these runes are inscribed, they can be combined to create various effects. Their essence is imitation, a special sublimation of existing phenomena in the universe."

As he spoke, he began to give examples.

For example, a type of 'cloaked lizard' possesses the ability to become invisible. This ability involves the laws of light and can generally only be used to deceive planetary-level beings.

However, from the perspective of sacrificial runes, those runes that conceal abilities can be completely repaired by other runes, and after sublimation, they can give birth to even stronger abilities.

The more Perseus listened, the more familiar it felt.

After going around in circles, he discovered that this was the local version of the jigsaw puzzle system.

It's just that his own cheat ability can piece together everything, while the sacrificial runes can at most optimize the laws of creation. In the universe, it's just a different kind of treasure refining.

We also need a reference sample!

"What does this have to do with the Jade Vein Spirit Body?" Perseus asked, puzzled.

Kasha also looked confused.

In the end, it was the god Pue who explained it from beginning to end.

The Yanji lineage is capable of observing the universe.

They used their special abilities to write the secrets of heaven and earth, interpreting all sorts of strange phenomena in the boundless starry sky, but they could not fathom the origin of life.

According to popular opinion, before the clan's defeat, the powerful members of the Yanji lineage had conducted in-depth research on this aspect.

They tried to see through the "jade" inside the mother's womb.

Jade that has already been successfully combined, and jade that is still in the process of combining.

Because of the genetic characteristics of life in the process of reproduction, each time jade is combined, it will simultaneously mobilize the sacrificial runes of the ten laws.

Our ancestors tried to replicate this secret pattern.

It is unknown whether everything related to this is taboo, but in any case, when that Venerable One replicated this secret rune, he suffered an extremely terrible backlash.

His divine body was burning every second.

It only recorded a rough outline, and the immense pressure damaged 54% of the divine body.

Left with no other choice, after recording the outermost sacrificial runes—the thirteen jade veins—the Venerable One directly gave up on replicating these runes.

Going further in, you enter another realm.

He sensed death even before he truly began; the vague premonition was so real that, to this day, no one among the descendants of Yanji has been able to strengthen this inheritance.

However, the Jade Vein Spirit Body is still very strong.

Without observing the combination of jade, replicating the thirteen jade veins will not result in a backlash.

Similarly, when the first ancestor to eat crabs replicated these patterns on his body, he also experienced a magical change.

Strength, speed, defense... everything is improving.

This change has a unified name in the universe—body amplitude.

Similarly, if all the jade veins are replicated, it will directly transform into a complete jade vein spirit body, possessing ten times the body amplitude and a greatly enhanced perception of the universe.

Perseus then realized just how much he had benefited.

The promises made by the several kings were complete and direct resources that would allow him to achieve 10 times the amplitude of his physical body.

His power has long been fully developed. If he can create a complete Jade Vein Spirit Body, all the way to the Venerable level, he will no longer need to worry about this aspect.

So...

Perseus looked at the many immortal kings present and asked, "So, the Jade Vein Spirit Body also has the effect of assisting fertility?"

"Yes!" God Pue nodded.

"You forgot that the sacrificial runes are an enhancement of certain phenomena in the universe. The condensation of the jade vein spirit body is itself a way to guide people into a reproductive state. This will clear away the barriers between the life fields of the strong, allowing the jades that could not be combined as their level and genes improved to be pieced together into a complete state."

"The success rate is roughly the same as that of a normal planetary-level target."

"Then what about immortality?" Kai'Sa asked.

But as soon as she asked the question, she realized that she had made a fool of herself again.

The Jade Vein Spirit Body is at the Venerable level.

The fact that the backlash could harm a Venerable One indicates that it was also a form of enhancement at some level.

Therefore, based on the effects of this jade vein spirit body, even a Venerable should be able to conceive offspring under the corresponding conditions.

really!

"Immortals can certainly have offspring, but because their divine bodies have already undergone a transformation, the probability of an immortal having offspring is roughly the same as that of a cosmic-level immortal. A Marquis is equivalent to an ordinary Domain Lord, and a King is a World Lord. If it were a Venerable, the probability of success would be a thousand times lower."

No one is perfect because they lack ability.

Jade Vein Spirit Body has a powerful effect on fertility, but is relatively mediocre in other aspects.

However, Perseus is now more curious about the mechanism of this cultivation method.

Can he replicate it using a puzzle system?

If we can successfully replicate it, we can simply let the immortal gods and venerable ones have offspring, and perhaps some exceptionally talented members of our race will be born.

A thoughtful look flashed in Perseus's eyes.

Meanwhile, the many kings were discussing which star level to choose so that she and Emperor Payne could have offspring together.

Dipayen was the son of Elder Latimer and a marquis.

Although he was only born at the planetary level, because he was conceived by both a king and a marquis, Emperor Payne's talent far surpassed that of his peers from the moment he was born.

However, it is extremely difficult for a prince to have offspring.

Over the endless years, more than a dozen kings were granted titles, but the number of their actual offspring was less than a handful.

There are two male members and two female members in the tribe.

The men chose Depay, but the two women who were born earlier were far superior to him, so they needed to screen other potential targets.

Or if only this bloodline could evolve on its own...

The kings discussed solutions while glancing at Perseus, but unfortunately, based on the cards he had revealed, there was no way they could solve the problem.

In the end, it was the chubby clan elder Qiuchika who made the final decision.

Immediately afterwards, he teleported to Perseus's side and led him flying toward one side of the palace.

"I'll first teach you how to sense the sacrificial runes, then I'll teach you how to replicate the jade vein's spirit body..."

"After you've learned all this, you can then consider which inheritances you want to choose. Unfortunately, the inheritances within the sacrificial tower haven't been recovered yet—given the current situation, your choices are limited!"
