Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 380

"Eternal Lord, congratulations, you have broken our sect's record."

The long-haired man shook his head. If the Trial Tower hadn't detected that the other party was indeed only at the level of the Lord of the Universe, he would have thought that he had already broken through to the level of True God.

"So, does that mean I've won?" Lu Yunhe asked.

This hurdle was easier than he had imagined, since it happened right at the point where he was using his cheat code, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Lu Yunhe had no intention of delaying any longer, after all, everything was perfected, including the Willpower Attack Secret Technique, the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, the Mechanical Flow Treasure, and so on...

Apart from the divine body, it has reached the pinnacle in almost every aspect.

Therefore, Lu Yunhe also planned to directly pass through the entire Trial Tower, put a period to his cultivation in the Liuzhong Sect, and then concentrate on conquering the 100,000-fold gene level, finally dealing with the World Beast, and leading the human race to achieve eternity in the Origin World.

“Naturally, since your mastery of secret techniques has already reached the top level of the eighth rank, you no longer need my guidance.”

The long-haired man nodded, then tossed the unsheathed longsword in his hand to Lu Yunhe.

Snapped!

Lu Yunhe subconsciously took the sword, and the moment his hands touched the sword, countless law patterns immediately emerged on the blade.

Then, the divine power within his body began to surge, connecting with these law patterns, as if they had merged into one.

"The treasure in your hand is called... Primordial Embryo..."

The long-haired man explained briefly: "This is your reward after you clear this level. I hope you like it."

The primordial embryo is very valuable, but so far, the most valuable item in the Trial Tower is actually the life structure diagram on the fifth floor.

After all, the Primordial Embryo can only be considered a decent single treasure, while the Divine Power Flow Inheritance is the true core of a major power.

“...the embryonic embryo..."

Lu Yunhe grasped the treasure in his hand, and a feeling of blood connection surged into his heart.

After cultivating for so long, he finally has a main weapon for attacking, so he no longer has to be envious of the primordial weapon that Zetton's clone possesses.

“Give it a name. It will be your lifelong companion, a true friend in life and death…” the long-haired man said.

Let's call it 'Guanhong'!

Lu Yunhe thought of his first named weapon, which had long since been retired, but it would be alright to let this nascent embryo inherit it.

"This embryonic material should also be considered a natal weapon!"

Lu Yunhe planned to think of another way to get a few more Yuan Embryos, so that at least one could be provided for each of his clones.

"You have passed the seventh level of the Trial Tower and are ready to proceed to the eighth level at any time."

As soon as the man finished speaking, his body vanished, transforming into a portal of light.

Lu Yunhe did not rush to the next level, but began to inscribe secret techniques and runes into the rainbow.

The first level of secret techniques, the sixth level of "Heavenly Fire Spreads Across the Plains".

The second secret technique, the seventh level, is "Radiant Gold".

The third secret technique, the eighth level of "Four Symbols Extinction".

The fourth secret technique is the "Five Elements Reincarnation" with nine levels.

Lu Yunhe imprinted the secret techniques at the True God level into the Guanhong Sword. Secret techniques below the True God level were not qualified to be imprinted into it.

After all, the Yuan Embryo can unleash the power of a top-tier fifth-order level simply by its own sharpness, so there is no need to imprint it with additional fifth-order secret runes.

After branding, Lu Yunhe activated his divine power, and secret patterns began to appear on the sword, instantly giving the entire sword a mysterious and special charm.

Activating the first level of the sixth-order secret technique, the Piercing Rainbow Sword immediately unleashed a seventh-order attack.

Based on the primordial embryo, those below the God King realm should be able to unleash a power level one higher than their own secret techniques through their weapons.

Once you reach the God King realm, the strength of the primordial embryo becomes somewhat insufficient. You can only say that you can perfectly exert your own strength, and it would be difficult to further amplify its power.

"That's enough!"

Lu Yunhe waved his weapon a few times, feeling extremely satisfied. At least he didn't have to activate the secret techniques that came with those treasures.

Let's move on to the next floor!

Armed with his new weapon, Lu Yunhe headed directly to the eighth floor of the Trial Tower.

The scene shifts, revealing a smooth, unsightly mirror.

Then, to Lu Yunhe's puzzled look, the mirror surface shimmered smoothly, and a similar figure walked out from it.

They look alike, have similar weapons, and even their equipment is almost identical.

"Defeat me, and you can proceed to the ninth floor of the Trial Tower."

Lu Yunhe spoke calmly through his mirror.

"Let's fight!"

Lu Yunhe chuckled. If it was just about fighting, then he wouldn't hold back.

"no problem!"

……

boom……

As soon as Lu Yunhe finished speaking, the mirror suddenly unleashed an extremely terrifying aura, and the surrounding space and time seemed to distort, as if divine power was burning to its limit.

The triple divine power burns, reaching the limit that even the Lord of the Universe and the True God can cultivate.

The Lord of the Universe uses a divine power burning technique, which is enough to close the gap between his divine power and that of a true god. A double burning technique can even surpass the divine power of a true god, and a triple burning technique...

At the same time, a golden, form-fitting suit of armor appeared on the mirror's body.

A top-tier mechanical treasure that comprehensively upgrades to the third tier—Golden Armor God.

It is very powerful; if one does not follow the path of divine power, one cannot even wear it.

hum...

The weapon in Jing Shen's hand trembled slightly, and it looked like it was also a Yuan Embryo level weapon.

With the ultimate divine power burning technique, the powerful mechanical treasure, and the heaven-defying weapon, the Mirror Body has probably reached the limit of the Lord of the Universe.

"The amplification is almost at its limit, but I wonder what level of secret techniques the mirror body can unleash?"

Looking at the mirror's performance, Lu Yunhe was secretly amazed. He gripped the Piercing Rainbow Sword tightly, his divine power surging within him, and he also pushed the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique to its third extreme level.

"The Four Symbols are annihilated!"

cut!

Lu Yunhe decided to strike first and use an eighth-order secret technique to test the state of the mirror body.

We'll see if it's a fixed strength, or if it will synchronize with the user's strength. Let's see what it tests.

If it's the latter, Lu Yunhe could also put on a classic scene of breaking through in battle.

For a genius, it's not unreasonable to gain insights during battle and elevate their secret techniques to a higher level.

Bang!

As Lu Yunhe unleashed his sword strike, Jing Shen on the other side moved just as quickly, wielding his weapon to meet him, also employing an eighth-order secret technique.

In an instant, the divine power, burning to its extreme, spread in all directions, and even a true god standing in front of it would be annihilated by a single sword strike.

At this moment, Lu Yunhe and Jing Shen have both reached the pinnacle of their realms in the universe. After all, the Divine Power Flow doesn't increase power, but mainly increases endurance.

With the triple divine power burning, the mechanical treasure amplified to the third tier, and the primordial weapon with eighth-tier secret runes, it is enough to allow a universe master to cross two tiers to contend with a true god of the void.

Moreover, it is a Void True God in full condition, not a life form suppressed in an environment like the Cosmic Sea.

Of course, as a Void True God, the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique and the Mechanical Flow Treasure, while not necessarily the best, at least provide a minimum guarantee.

Even if Lu Yunhe were to unleash his full power, he could at most bully those low-level Void True Gods who were only at the beginner level.

"cut!"

In the pure white space, two incredibly passionate figures collided wildly.

"Is this your limit?"

Lu Yunhe gradually increased the power, and when he found that the mirror's strength had not changed, he felt relieved.

"Do you have some other tricks up your sleeve?"

Jing Shen was somewhat puzzled. At this moment, he had reached the pinnacle of the Lord of the Universe, and the mission was to defeat him, not to simply contend with him.

Moreover, to defeat him at the level of the Lord of the Universe would truly be a miracle among miracles, an incredible feat.

unless……

"It seems your strength is only at this level. In that case..."

Having figured out the details of the mirror, Lu Yunhe was finally able to unleash his full power without any worries.

"Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Space!"

Lu Yunhe deflected the mirror's attack with a single sword strike, and his sword aura instantly changed. Five colorful streams of energy converged on the sword, continuously merging with each other, turning the pure white Guanhong Sword into a hazy gray.

As soon as the hazy sword energy appeared, the entire space seemed to be completely isolated, turning into a simple void.

The five laws of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are completely integrated, and the law of space is also incorporated to a degree of 99%. The power of the six laws together constitutes this top-tier ninth-order secret technique.

Once the last wisp of spatial law is integrated into the Five Elements, this top-tier ninth-order secret technique can be deduced to the true void level, allowing one to comprehend the Dao of the Void.

Even without complete fusion, the power of the six laws allowed Lu Yunhe to construct a simple "one-thought void" based solely on his own understanding of the laws.

Unlike reversing time and space and making words come true, concepts like "a thought of emptiness" and "a thought of eternity" are all things that cultivators comprehend themselves.

Once you reach a certain level, and with your inner universe as a reference, comprehending these functions is not difficult.

With a single swing of the sword, it was as if a void world had crashed down, impossible to dodge or defend against; one could only watch helplessly as one was annihilated.

Faced with Lu Yunhe's attack, Jing Shen seemed to choose to give up resistance, allowing Guan Hong to pierce through his entire body.

Upon seeing this, a hint of doubt flashed across Lu Yunhe's face. Although the difference of one level was significant, it shouldn't mean that they were completely powerless to resist.

"Congratulations on passing the trial!"

The mirror-like body, which had been pierced through, was restored, but its aura remained largely unchanged.

"I never expected that there would actually be a Lord of Law who could comprehend a ninth-order secret technique, and a top-tier ninth-order secret technique at that."
