Swallowed Star: The Original Secret Realm

Chapter 32: Three Refining Secrets (Happy New Year!)

"Teacher has set a time limit of 300 years, so I will get through it in a shorter time and give the teacher a surprise." Zhang Yi thought to himself.

"Go ahead. I'll give you 30 more chances to comprehend the Cosmic Chaos Monument," the Chaos City Lord said. "I believe it will be helpful to you. Don't let your teacher down."

Wow!
Time and space transformation.

Zhang Yi was directly moved out of the Chaos Ruins and returned to the courtyard.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Yi went directly to comprehend the "Monument of Chaos in the Universe".

He now has 30 chances given by the Lord of Chaos City. If he studies them more, it will be of great benefit to his understanding of the laws of time and space.

Seven days later, after comprehending the Chaos Monument, Zhang Yi left the City Lord's Mansion and returned to the rooftop of his training site.

There were five men in black at the entrance of the training place. When they saw Zhang Yi coming back, they hurried over.

"Your Highness Zhang Yi, we are employees of the Virtual Universe Company. The Virtual Universe Network discovered through your network connection settings that you have entered the Domain Lord level. According to company regulations, we need to confirm it in reality, so we came to Chaos City to find you." A black-clad butler in the lead said respectfully.

"Okay." Zhang Yi nodded and led them into the training ground. "Come in first."

"Your Highness, please release the Force." The leading black-clad butler said respectfully, and at the same time took out a special testing instrument.

"Ah."

Zhang Yi then stretched out his right hand and released a stream of ochre-colored Force, which swept towards the surrounding area.

"drop!"

The instrument in the leading black-clad butler's hand rang out, and he spoke again, "Your Highness, please give us a drop of blood so we can test and confirm it."

"Hmm." A drop of blood flowed out from Zhang Yi's finger and flew towards the butler in black.

"The blood gene has been confirmed. We have brought a nutrition capsule with sufficient nutrient solution. Your Highness can use it to strengthen your body to the ninth level of Domain Lord."

"Wow!"

A nutrient capsule entirely of pale purple appeared out of thin air in front of Zhang Yi.

"Your Highness, this nutrition capsule can only be used by you. We will recycle it after you have used it up." The leading black-clad butler explained.

Zhang Yi nodded.

"There's one more thing. Your Highness, having reached the Domain Lord level, you must be sent out. Conventionally, you're usually sent back to your hometown, but I received instructions from the company's top management when I arrived to temporarily postpone your posting. I'll notify Your Highness if there are any changes to the situation later." The black-clad butler continued, "That's all settled. We'll be leaving first."

Then, several people saluted respectfully, turned into streams of light, and flew away.

"As expected of the Chaos City Lord's direct disciple, we have been serving the members of the Original Secret Realm for countless years, but this is the first time that a senior leader has directly intervened in the affairs of the Domain Lord level. I guess this might be what the Chaos City Lord meant." The black-clothed butler with black hair couldn't help but speak among the people flying in the air.

"Shut up, Lord of Chaos City, how can you guess that!" A scolding voice rang out.

"Yes, chief."

After several black-clad deacons left, Zhang Yi entered the nutrient capsule as he did last time to absorb the purple nutrient solution.

A few months later, Zhang Yi's body evolved to the limit of the Domain Lord level, the ninth level of Domain Lord.

After that, Zhang Yi traveled between the training site and the Chaos Monument. After comprehending the Chaos Monument once, he would go back to carefully comprehend and digest it. After completely digesting it, he would comprehend it again.

At the same time, the clone far away in the Origin Continent also absorbed another "Source Crystal", entered the "Enlightenment" state, and tried his best to comprehend the laws of time and space.

As the number of Chaos Monuments gradually ran out, Zhang Yi's level of comprehension of the laws became increasingly higher.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, 100 years have passed since Zhang Yi became the Domain Master (over 300 years in the original universe). Zhang Yi sat cross-legged on the balcony and looked up at the sky. In some spatial cracks in the sky, some of the laws of the universe were manifesting.

"Hahaha"

Zhang Yi laughed loudly and suddenly stood up.

During the 100 years in Chaos City, his clone in the Origin Continent also spent more than 300 days in meditation. In order to maintain the state of "enlightenment" as much as possible, although he basically used up all the "Source Crystal", the effect was very significant.

"In the past 100 years, I have gone to the Chaos Monument of the Universe to gain insights more than 20 times. I have fully understood the fifth picture, and I am almost done with the sixth picture." Zhang Yi felt a little happy.

Normally, understanding the fifth picture of the Universe Chaos Monument is about the ability to pass through the 15th level of the Tongtian Bridge, and understanding the sixth picture is about the ability to pass through the 18th level of the Tongtian Bridge.

He should have the ability to get through the 17th floor now, but as to whether he can get through it, he will have to try it again to find out.

However, with his current understanding of the laws, there is no problem for him to pass through the domain lord level Tongtian Mountain. After all, as long as he has the ability to pass through the 16th level of Tongtian Bridge, he can pass through Tongtian Mountain.

"There's no need to rush through Tongtian Mountain these few days. I should study the secret method that my former clone, Grandfather Duanmu Hong, gave me to evolve my body's genes." Zhang Yi thought to himself, "I wonder if my original body can cultivate in the original universe."

At the same moment, in the small universe on the continent of origin.

Beishan Divine Kingdom, Qiucheng.

The clone Zhang Yi took out a piece of jade, which was the secret method of body genetic evolution "Three Refining Secret Methods" solemnly given by his clone's grandfather Duanmu Hong.

Zhang Yi controlled his immortal divine power to sweep across the jade piece, and immediately felt layers of obstruction, and the divine power continued to penetrate deeper.

After a moment, the immortal divine power broke through the obstacles and entered the jade piece.

"boom!"

A message was conveyed to him through divine power.

After a moment, the information was transmitted.

Zhang Yi already understood this secret method.

This method of body gene evolution, called "Three Refining Secrets", was created by a great being. The object of practice must be flesh and blood life. It mainly involves tempering the body, changing the body's most essential characteristics, allowing the body to evolve, and thus improving the body's genes.

The biggest obstacle to practicing this secret method is that it requires a strong will, and only those with a strong will can practice it.

When practicing this secret method, the higher your own strength, the higher the willpower required.

According to the information conveyed by the secret method, generally speaking, one's willpower must be at least one major level higher than one's strength in order to practice the first level.

For example, the clone is now immortal, so it needs at least the will of the Lord of Laws to practice.

"There are actually such restrictions!" Zhang Yi felt helpless. "If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have rushed to break through to the Domain Master level."

Previously, thanks to the advice of the Chaos City Lord teacher, I broke through to the Domain Lord level early on. After breaking through to the Domain Lord level, my willpower has been strengthened. In addition, during this period of time, in addition to comprehending the laws, I have been sharpening my willpower through visualization.

But the leap from Immortal Will to Venerable Will is a very big one, and his own will has not yet broken through to the level of Universe Venerable.

Let’s try first to see if I can practice!

Primitive universe, Chaos City, on the cultivation rooftop.

Zhang Yi sat cross-legged, his consciousness inward, trying to recall the information about the secret technique that his clone had received, but found that he could not remember anything.

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work." Zhang Yi sighed in his heart. Originally, he had some luck. His clone could accept the secret technique in the Origin Continent, and his original body and clone had the same memory. He thought he could get away with it.

　I wish you all a happy new year, and by the way, please read on!
