Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 394 Armed Journey to the Cosmic Sea

While continuing to browse the treasures that could enhance the level of life genes, Lu Qingshan also quickly looked at the wealth he had left after exchanging for the Nine Nether Soul Devouring Bell and the Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Armor.

Treasure Points: 321;

Heavy treasure point: 3109.

"To increase the level of life genes from two thousand times to four thousand times, it will cost another 545 Treasure Points!"

Looking at the remaining Treasure Points in his hand, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh: "It seems I still have to contribute the Dragon Bone Sky-Shaking Armor and the Soul-Suppressing Ancient Bell back to the clan's treasury!"

The Dragon Bone Sky-Shaking Armor and Soul-Suppressing Ancient Bell that Lu Qingshan replaced this time were both items he had exchanged for in the human race's treasure vault, costing 37 and 218 treasure points respectively.

He originally intended to give these two treasures to his weaker second clone, but since he was still short of treasures to upgrade his life gene level, he had no choice but to contribute them back to the human race's treasury.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan quickly placed the two treasures he had replaced onto the cyan stone plate in front of him.

Strands of cyan silk quickly rose from the numerous patterns on the cyan stone disc, then directly enveloped the Soul-Suppressing Ancient Bell and the Dragon Bone Sky-Shaking Armor.

Just a moment later, the gentle voice rang in Lu Qingshan's ears again...

"A top-tier treasure armor, offered to one's race, will yield 196.2 treasure points. Lord of all realms, are you willing to offer this treasure to your race?"

"A common soul-type treasure, offered to one's race, will yield 33.3 treasure points. Lord of all realms, are you willing to offer this treasure to your race?"

“I’m willing!” Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, a crack appeared on the blue stone disc, which then took in the Dragon Bone Sky-Shaking Armor and the Soul-Suppressing Ancient Bell.

At this moment, Lu Qingshan's account also gained another 229.5 Treasure Points.

Having found enough Treasure Points, Lu Qingshan naturally began exchanging them for the many resources that would increase his life gene level from two thousand times to four thousand times.

Wow!
After deducting 545 Treasure Points, one after another rare treasures flew out from the cracks in the blue stone disc and were collected by Lu Qingshan.

After exchanging for these treasures, Lu Qingshan had less than 7 Treasure Points left in his hand.

"I really don't have enough Treasure Points!"

Looking at the remaining wealth in his hands, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh, "I wonder when I'll be able to collect a complete set of top-tier treasures?"

"However, it's too early to talk about these things now. Next, let's accumulate some wealth in that cosmic sea, exchange it for a decent peak-level treasure longsword, and then slowly improve our life gene level!"

"Once I finish these things, I believe I will have created the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, and then I can smoothly step into the fourth level!"

After sighing, Lu Qingshan quickly boarded a spaceship and left the initial universe, then returned to his divine kingdom.

……

Within Lu Qingshan's divine kingdom.

Wow!

With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan immediately displayed the numerous treasures that he had just exchanged for with 545 Treasure Points, all of which could enhance the level of life genes.

hum!
After a wisp of divine power enveloped all the treasures, they began to continuously merge into his divine body.

At the same time, Lu Qingshan's divine body also began to undergo another transformation.

Rumble!
The divine power within his body surged continuously, like boiling water.

In a short period of time, Lu Qingshan's life gene level increased from two thousand times that of ordinary life in the universe to four thousand times.

At the same time, he once again felt the 'hunger' emanating from his divine body!
Upon feeling the hunger, Lu Qingshan, who was already prepared, had a thought, and the vast divine power from the endless divine sea below immediately and continuously poured into his body.

After his true form absorbed enough divine power, Lu Qingshan's height skyrocketed to over a thousand kilometers, which was quite remarkable among the Lords of the Universe.

After all, even if one elevates the level of life genes to about ten thousand times that of ordinary life in the universe, a divine body is generally only tens of thousands of kilometers long, like the leader of the Yan God Clan, Emperor Yan, and others.

Only by elevating the life gene level to the perfect gene level will the size of the divine body undergo another transformation, directly increasing to more than 90,000 kilometers.

"With a height of over a thousand kilometers, plus the protection of the supreme treasure armor 'Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Armor,' even the Chaos City Lord would probably find it difficult to annihilate my entire divine body in one strike!"

Feeling the vast divine power within his body, Lu Qingshan quickly thought to himself, "As long as I am not killed in one blow, I can continuously replenish my divine power with the split divine bodies of the Endless Divine Sea Avatar, and then keep wearing down the opponent!"

After a brief moment of reflection, Lu Qingshan quickly resumed familiarizing himself with his own strength.

He just exchanged for the Nine Nether Soul-Devouring Bell and the Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Armor, so he'll definitely need some time to familiarize himself with them.

And so time continued to pass, and in the blink of an eye, another year had gone by.

……

Within the human realm, in the primordial secret realm of the universe, in Lu Qingshan's mansion.

"teacher!"

Lu Qingshan looked at the Ice Peak Lord in front of him, who was wearing a blue battle armor, and greeted him respectfully.

Lu Qingshan had never seen this clone of the Ice Peak Lord before.

However, the icy aura emanating from the other party was clearly much stronger than that of the clone he had seen before.

Under the shroud of that icy aura, the surrounding space and time seemed to freeze.

"Qingshan, are you ready?" the Lord of Ice Peak asked earnestly.

“Yes!” Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said.

"Actually, I didn't plan for you to venture into that cosmic sea so soon!"

Seeing Lu Qingshan nod, the Ice Peak Master quickly shook his head and said, "However, since you have already made your decision and also have the ability to create clones, then I will not try to persuade you any further!"

"However, you must remember to be extremely careful once you enter the Cosmic Sea!"

"After all, there are countless dangers in the cosmic sea. Even the strongest beings in the universe can perish. You can't be too careless just because you have the ability to create clones!"

"Disciple understands!" Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said.

"Then let's set off."

With a wave of his hand, the Lord of Ice Peak directly transported Lu Qingshan through the Divine Kingdom to an extremely remote area in the Primordial Universe.

There is an incredibly massive black hole here. The mere act of absorbing and releasing energy has plunged the entire vast expanse of the surrounding universe into darkness.

"This is the Toya black hole, which is also the most terrifying black hole in the original universe."

The Lord of Ice Peak looked at the enormous black hole ahead and explained to Lu Qingshan, "There are generally two methods to travel from the primordial universe into the vast ocean of space."

"The first method is to enter the spatial interlayer, then teleport, and after reaching the end of the spatial interlayer, break through the cosmic membrane. Although the membrane of the primordial universe is extremely strong, as long as one has the strength of a universe master, one can break through that membrane!"

"The second method is to go through this Toya black hole!"

The Lord of Ice Peaks looked ahead: "The terrifying tearing and twisting force within the Toya Black Hole has been constantly destroying the surrounding cosmic membrane. Therefore, as long as one enters the Toya Black Hole, one can directly reach the outer cosmic sea by following the force!"

"Moreover, there is another advantage to entering the Cosmic Sea from within the Toya Black Hole: the corresponding region within the Cosmic Sea contains a total of 39 natural wormholes..."

"The cosmic sea is vast and boundless, countless times larger than the primordial universe!"

The Lord of Ice Peaks continued explaining to Lu Qingshan, "Although the Lord of the Universe can teleport a distance of millions of light-years each time, the environment in the Cosmic Sea is harsh. To maintain a high-intensity teleportation, the maximum distance at one time is only ten thousand light-years!"

"Such frequent teleportation not only consumes energy, but also makes it difficult to reach the desired target area in a short time!"

"Fortunately, although the environment in the cosmic ocean is harsh and bizarre, it has also given rise to many natural wormholes! By following these natural wormholes, one can immediately cross a distance of hundreds of billions of light-years from one end to the other."

"Therefore... when traveling normally in the cosmic sea, powerful individuals generally rely on natural wormholes to travel the vast majority of their journeys. Only in areas without natural wormholes will they use teleportation to travel!"

"When our human race's powerful members first entered the Cosmic Sea, they didn't know the areas that many natural wormholes could reach. However, after a long period of exploration, they have recorded the coordinates of the two ends connected by numerous natural wormholes. You can plan your own routes when traveling in the Cosmic Sea in the future!" "Disciple understands!"

After listening to the Ice Peak Lord's introduction, Lu Qingshan quickly nodded seriously and said.

Although he already had some understanding of the Cosmic Sea, he had gained even more knowledge about it through the virtual universe in the past six months.

To venture into the cosmic sea, the greatest danger is often not the enemies of various forces, but the environment of the cosmic sea itself.

After all, the entire universe is too vast, and there are countless dangerous places within it. He might encounter irresistible dangers in some dangerous place at any time.

At that moment, the Lord of Ice Peaks directly sent an incredibly complex and intricate map of the cosmic sea to Lu Qingshan through his consciousness.

"Qingshan, this is the most detailed map of the universe that our human race currently possesses, and it is now shared by many high-ranking members of our human race!"

After passing the map to Lu Qingshan, the Lord of Ice Peak solemnly said, "Apart from the high-ranking members of my human race, even our allies at the level of universe lords in the Hong Alliance can only obtain two or three tenths of these maps at most!"

"You must remember this: unless you have the permission of the Giant Axe Council, this map must never be revealed to any other powerful figures!"

"Disciple understands!" Lu Qingshan nodded earnestly.

"Alright, come with me!"

The Lord of Ice Peaks quickly called out to Lu Qingshan, saying, "As long as we pass through this Toya Black Hole, the cosmic sea lies ahead."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Lord of Ice Peaks led the way, taking Lu Qingshan with him as they flew towards the deepest part of the Toya Black Hole.

"Huhuhu..."

After entering the Toya Black Hole, Lu Qingshan felt an incredibly powerful devouring force acting on him.

Even a cosmic sage would be instantly annihilated if he encountered this terrifying devouring power.

However, Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Ice Peak are both cosmic lords and possess supreme treasure armor for protection, so they are naturally not greatly affected.

In a short while, Lu Qingshan and the Ice Peak Master and his apprentice arrived at the deepest part of the Toya Black Hole.

"That's the true form of the Toya Black Hole!" The Lord of the Ice Peaks pointed ahead.

Lu Qingshan immediately spotted a spherical celestial body, about three meters in diameter and entirely black, at a glance.

The surface of this spherical celestial body is covered with incredibly complex dark golden patterns. These countless patterns combine to form an extremely strange pattern.

Near the main body of the Toya black hole is a cosmic membrane at the edge of the primordial universe. The endless devouring force is currently acting on this cosmic membrane, constantly tearing out an irregular hole with a diameter of tens of thousands of kilometers.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
Led by the Lord of Ice Peak, Lu Qingshan and his companion flew directly outwards along the torn opening and soon arrived at a vast space filled with endless chaotic air currents.

The endless, mist-like chaotic energy was constantly emanating overwhelming pressure, giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression.

Although these chaotic currents of energy were not specifically targeting anyone, the sheer pressure they naturally exuded was enough to completely annihilate even the most powerful and immortal kings.

This chaotic flow of energy is itself a source of energy for the universe.

If a cosmic ruler can create the strongest secret technique for the cosmic ruler, he can use this technique to transform his divine power into the most primordial chaotic energy.

Even without the pure chaotic energy here, it is still possible to greatly enhance the power of one's own secret techniques.

"Qingshan, this is the Cosmic Sea!"

The Lord of Ice Peaks turned back to look behind him, and then couldn't help but sigh, "Behind us lies the Primordial Universe, the cradle that gave birth to billions of races and countless lives in our Primordial Universe!"

Upon noticing the Ice Peak Lord's actions, Lu Qingshan also turned his head to look, and a look of shock quickly appeared in his eyes.

Not far behind him was the irregular membrane opening he had passed through. At a glance, the enormous membrane was spreading outwards, like a vast sky with no end in sight, as if it were covering the entire cosmic ocean.

"If the opportunity arises in the future, I might try to possess this primordial universe!"

Looking at the vast, primordial universe before him, a sense of ambition rose within Lu Qingshan.

Based on his familiarity with the original work, Lu Qingshan knew very well that once he possessed the original universe, he could use it to comprehend the various mysteries contained within it. It would be quite simple to master the laws of chaos and enter the chaotic realm, and there was even hope of entering the realm of the God King!
The original ancestor wanted to seize control of the primordial universe, but because he lacked knowledge and was completely unaware of the rules governing its operation, he failed and was subsequently suppressed by the primordial universe's original will.

But Lu Qingshan is different!

Having been familiar with the original work, he naturally knew how to seize control of the primordial universe!

Once he possesses the original universe, his future cultivation path will naturally be smoother!
"let's go!"

The Lord of Ice Peak released a divine power that enveloped Lu Qingshan, and then teleported to a void.

There are 39 incredibly twisted natural wormholes in this void, all of which are spatial channels formed by the special environment within the cosmic sea.

"There are 39 natural wormholes, with varying entrance sizes and teleportation distances."

The Lord of Ice Peaks smiled and asked, "Green Mountain, the intelligence data on the Cosmic Sea that I gave you before contained detailed information on how to identify natural wormholes numbered 1 to 39!"

"Remember, when venturing into this cosmic sea, the most important thing is not to lose your way. Even when teleporting, you must find a suitable reference point!"

"Although you possess an avatar, if you truly become lost in the cosmic sea, you will have no choice but to abandon that avatar and the many treasures it carries!"

“Disciple understands!” Lu Qingshan immediately nodded earnestly in response.

"Then let's go!"

The Lord of Ice Peaks quickly pointed to one of the natural wormholes, then smiled and said, "The Giant Axe is currently roaming inside the Spaceship, so many of our human race's Universe Lords are also concentrated there. If you want to get to the Spaceship, the most convenient way is to go through natural wormhole number 18!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan quickly followed the Lord of Ice Peak into the eighteenth natural wormhole.

……

Within the vast and boundless cosmic sea, chaotic air currents permeated everywhere, so Lu Qingshan and the Ice Peak Master could only explore their surroundings by radiating divine power.

Of course, this is also one of the most common things that strong people do when they venture into the cosmic sea.

After all, using divine power to investigate is much faster and clearer than using the naked eye to observe!

And so, after passing through the natural wormhole, the Lord of Ice Peaks directly led Lu Qingshan on a journey using extremely fast teleportation.

Natural wormhole!

Teleportation, teleportation...

Another natural wormhole!

Teleport, teleport...

After experiencing several spatial transformations, Lu Qingshan soon saw a shattered miniature universe!

Hundreds of millions of light-years away, there was a massive celestial body, a small universe with a diameter of one hundred million light-years.

However, that small universe had become extremely dilapidated. At a glance, countless irregular holes and cracks had appeared on its cosmic membrane.

"These are the most common reference points in the cosmic sea: miniature universes of the strongest beings in the universe!"

After noticing Lu Qingshan's gaze, the Lord of Ice Peak quickly said, "Although these small universes have been wandering in the cosmic sea, their speed is extremely slow. As long as we grasp the patterns within them, we can use them as reference points!"

"However, even the strongest beings in the universe will eventually perish in the cycle of reincarnation!"

As the Lord of Ice Peak spoke, he waved his hand and handed a transparent crystal sphere gleaming with golden light to Lu Qingshan: "Qingshan, inside this is detailed information about our primordial universe, the second reincarnation era, the first reincarnation era, and the two holy lands!"

"These messages contain many secrets. After you finish reading them, destroy them immediately and never spread them."

"Disciple understands!"

Lu Qingshan's heart stirred slightly, and then he took the transparent crystal ball and infused it with a trace of divine power.
