Swallowing the Starry Sky for Billions of Years

Chapter 757 Difficult Conditions
"how?"

The headless energy entity looked over.

As his consciousness detached from the miniature pantheon, Gunn nearly burst into a tirade of curses.

To inherit the legacy of a god, the minimum requirements are that one must achieve the following during the time of a Cosmic Venerable: 1. Gene multiplier increased by an additional 1000 times; 2. Forge more than three high-grade treasures, which cannot be simple weapons or spiritual items.

If one is the Lord of the Universe: 1. Perfect genes; 2. Refine a supreme treasure, which must be a domain, a flying palace, or a soul defense type, or at the very least, a sealing type.

There are even conditions for becoming the strongest in the universe, but those are unclear and vague. We only know that they exist, but they are definitely superior to perfect genes.

“Under the rules of the universe, the extra gene multiplier is one hundred times. How can it be an extra thousand times?” Gunn couldn’t help but question. If a human’s gene multiplier is “1”, then the increase is 1+100. This 100 is the upper limit of external objects. No matter how much it is, 100 is an insurmountable bottom line for treasures that can increase the gene multiplier.

"Using external objects is naturally impossible. I can give you a pointer: why do different races have different innate gene multipliers, yet the fundamental laws they cultivate are the same? Laws can be cultivated, and so can divine bodies. Don't dismiss things you haven't seen as fallacies. Have you ever wondered why consuming treasures can increase gene multipliers, and specifically, how?" The headless energy entity said earnestly, "My lord accomplished it, even exceeding this requirement. He did it at the level of a Universe Lord. Although his strength lay in weapon crafting, strictly speaking, this inheritance is more remarkable than you imagine. Either you try to do it yourself, or you find a life form that can do it for me, just like my lord brought me from the Cosmic Sea to the Primordial Universe."

"The previous Ancestral God Sect artifacts were my way of showing my sincerity. What follows is just a little help. I can help you repair some damaged treasures. If you have any doubts, I will just provide assistance."

What the headless energy entity said greatly shocked Gunn: a divine body, capable of autonomous cultivation?!
Although it seemed absurd at first glance, the more rational one became, the more one could not ignore the possibility that existed. This reminded Gunn of the Bloodline Classic, which was a method to guide and change genes.

It is possible for a group to be guided and fall on an individual. Guen had this idea before, but when someone said it so confidently, he didn't want to accept it at first. But after calming down, he immediately acknowledged its feasibility.

"But how do I cultivate?"

"That's beyond my knowledge."

"Then what are you, an intelligent life form? A consciousness? You said you were brought by the God, so where were you originally in the cosmic sea?" Gunn kept pressing for answers.

“You want to know what I am? Then I will tell you what I am.” The headless energy entity nodded.

But after only a short while, Gunn couldn't hold back any longer: "Just say it."

“I’ve already said it,” the headless energy entity said calmly. “Look around.”

Gunn was stunned and looked around. He was shocked to find that the primordial will of the universe was watching them. He hadn't even sensed the arrival of the primordial will of the universe, nor did he know that the headless energy body had "said" that it couldn't even mention it. This was unimaginable.

Even the Primordial One, as everyone knows, can be spoken to. He was suppressed for offending the primordial will of the universe. But now, the headless energy entity can't even speak? "I've told you, but you can't hear me. The rules of operation, what is allowed and what is not, are all predetermined. The universe is more mysterious than you imagine. The first step you need to take is to gain the recognition of my master's lineage. The second step is to gain my recognition, which will be even more difficult. At that time, you may be able to know everything you want to know," the headless energy entity said earnestly.

"Can you repair this?" When the will of the universe's origin looked upon him, Gunn knew he couldn't force it any further and took out the Extreme Wolf Armor. "But when you escaped here, you immediately absorbed the energy of the Pantheon of Gods within the Jiehai Tower. Can it still be repaired?"

"This is a treasure from before the Great Cataclysm. Its essence is a top-tier defensive treasure. Now, it is only barely maintained at the level of a high-grade treasure. Repairing it is not difficult, but I am still missing a few materials. I suggest that you improve your crafting skills first, and then I will assist you in repairing it. This will be better for you to craft top-tier treasures in the future."

The headless energy entity produced a document: "This is the basics of weapon crafting summarized by my lord. Take it and learn it."

"I only chose to absorb the energy of the Clean Pantheon in one go to have more options. Don't worry about me, just focus on your cultivation."

Keep it up!
Gunn hadn't been encouraged like a child in a long time, but the thought of the other person being restricted by the operating rules made him let it go.

He took the basics of weapon crafting and glanced at it, but then fell even more silent. The first thing they did was introduce how to craft a supreme treasure, but Gu En had never even crafted a major treasure before; he could only barely make a pseudo-major treasure.

Upon hearing the truth, the headless energy entity showed no reaction: "In my lord's weapon-forging inheritance, there is nothing more basic than this. When you prepare to forge weapons in the future, call me and I will guide you."

What could Gunn say but nod? After discussing it, they decided to return the headless energy body to Jiehai Tower as well. It was originally obtained from the Pantheon and had the Pantheon Diagram, so Gunn wasn't as at ease using it.

The headless energy entity was quite understanding and provided a large amount of refining materials. If it was just for refining powerful artifacts, it could provide all the materials, including the blueprints for the Purgatory Universe Furnace that Gunn obtained from Venerable Songdao. The headless energy entity only modified some of the materials, and Gunn could immediately sense that his probability of successfully refining the artifact had increased from less than 10% to about 50%.

"You were able to comprehend the Pantheon on your own, so you definitely have a talent for weapon crafting, and it's extremely well-suited to this path. Don't let it go to waste."

After the headless energy entity finished speaking, it hid inside the Jiehai Tower, manipulating the tower to transform into a speck of dust, and followed Gu En into the Chishi Realm.

Several days later, Gunn arrived in Chaos City, where the City Lord of Chaos City had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Senior brother, that's all." Gu En took out 398 Divine Envoy Inheritance Crystals and 13 Beast God Inheritance Tokens. "I should be able to use the Divine Envoy Inheritance Crystals for a long time, but I will take out the Beast God Inheritance Tokens if I don't need them after a while."

This is because, among the cosmic venerables, the Beast God Inheritance Token is an extremely precious hard currency. There is no reason not to stockpile some, one for each attribute. He even promised his followers who cultivate the Path of the Beast God that, as long as the conditions are right, they can also be granted one.

"Seeing so many, I am truly delighted." The Chaos City Lord had been smiling since earlier, genuinely happy. "I discussed it with the Giant Axe Founder, and the few treasures we just acquired haven't been put into the treasury yet. You can choose from them first. These are all commensurate with your contributions. Some were obtained from the Primordial Star, and some came from the Cosmic Sea. Take a look for yourself."
