Swallowed Star: Inward Cultivation, Crying Luo Feng

Chapter 390 Sky-Splitting Blade

Luo Fan chatted with the Lord of Ice Peak for a while longer.

The Lord of Ice Peaks shared some of his insights from creating the secret techniques with him.

Then, Luo Fan left and went into his original universe clone.

He planned to go into seclusion there to create the most powerful secret technique for the Lord of the Universe.

Soon, Luo Fan arrived at the origin of his primordial universe clone.

He directly claimed the reward from the quest he had previously obtained, which was the Netherworld Blade.

The next moment, a knife appeared in the system space.

Luo Fan also gained more information about the Sky-Splitting Blade.

The Sky-Splitting Blade contains ten fundamental laws.

Of course, the most important secret runes are mainly about the fundamental laws of space.

The Sky-Splitting Blade is a supreme treasure of the True Gods.

There are seven layers of secret patterns on the knife.

The first level is equivalent to the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe.

The second level is equivalent to the strongest fusion secret technique of the Lord of the Universe.

……

Soon, Luo Fan received all the information about the Sky-Splitting Blade.

He couldn't wait to take out the Sky-Splitting Blade from the system space.

This Sky-Splitting Blade is similar to the Tang Dynasty sword from China.

This is the type of knife that Luo Fan is most used to using.

The Sky-Splitting Blade is composed of silver and black colors.

It is mainly silver.

There are also many carvings on the blade.

A series of mysterious carvings form seven layers of secret patterns.

Looking at the Sky-Splitting Blade, Luo Fan couldn't help but show a hint of excitement.

This is his first supreme offensive treasure.

Although possessing other supreme treasures could unleash even greater power.

However, for increasing combat power, offensive treasures are still the strongest.

The main purpose of using domain treasures is to restrict opponents and enhance one's own strength.

Palace-type treasures are used for self-defense.

This is also the treasure that provides the least increase in combat power.

Even though palace-type treasures are extremely valuable.

Just like the Zerg Queen, who only has strength close to the eighth rank.

Even though she possesses a supreme treasure of the palace type, her strength is not very high.

It's just that it has a stronger ability to survive.

As for armor-type treasures, their main purpose is to enhance defensive capabilities.

Among soul-type treasures, this is considered a pretty good one.

It not only enhances the defense against soul attacks, but also protects the soul.

Of course, to enhance soul attacks, you need a soul treasure specifically designed for attacking.

Soul treasures are mainly divided into two categories.

One type is inscribed with attack runes.

In other words, it's similar to a weapon-type treasure; by activating the secret runes on it, one can unleash its corresponding power.

For example, a supreme-grade True God Soul Attack Treasure, when activated with the seventh layer of secret runes, can unleash a tenth-tier soul attack.

That is, a soul attack at the level of the Primordial Ancestor.

It might offer some help with soul defense, but it certainly won't be as effective as a soul defense treasure.

It might be possible to weaken the soul attack to one ten-thousandth of its original strength, or at most one hundred-thousandth.

That is roughly equivalent to the function of a top-tier or peak-tier soul defense treasure.

As for the supreme soul defense treasure, if you activate the secret runes, you can reduce the soul attack to one millionth of its original value!

It also provides a certain boost to soul attacks.

However, at most it will only increase the power by half a level.

Of course, there are also some extremely powerful supreme God soul treasures.

This soul treasure can be used for both defense and offense.

One treasure is equivalent to two.

Such treasures are extremely rare and precious.

Moreover, the refining process is extremely difficult.

It can be said that such a treasure is equivalent to a Void True God's treasure.

Moreover, even a master craftsman capable of forging Void True God Treasures might not be confident in forging a Soul Treasure like this.

In fact, many powerful treasures have more than one function.

For example, some armored divine treasures may also come with a domain.

When combined with the ultimate treasure of the realm, it can unleash even greater power.

However, such treasures, if they come with additional functions, are at most equivalent to a treasure of a lower tier.

For example, the domain function of a True God's Supreme Treasure Armor is at most equivalent to that of a Peak Supreme Treasure Domain.

If combined with a supreme treasure of the highest level, it could potentially rival a true god's supreme treasure.

I want a treasure that combines multiple functions, and all at the same level.

Now, let's talk about the Arcana for the Mech build.

The Mechanical Flow Arcana is very special.

The Machine Race's treasure does not place such importance on laws.

To activate the Machine Race's ultimate treasure, divine power is the most important thing.

For example, Luo Feng's armor.

As long as the divine power is strong enough or the willpower meets the standard, it can be activated.

The only requirement for users of the Secret Runes is the strength of their divine power; they do not require any understanding of the laws.

Unlike traditional treasures, which require mastering the secret runes on them to activate, this treasure is different.

To master the secret runes, one needs sufficient understanding of the laws.

Luo Fan also wanted the Mechanical Flow Ultimate.

The Machine Race's treasures are extremely powerful, granting users immense strength.

Why was Luo Feng able to contend with the Lord of the Universe despite possessing divine power at the Venerable level in the original novel?

It's important to know that the difference in divine power between the Venerable One and the Lord of the Universe is a hundredfold!
Even Luo Fan was only able to barely raise his divine power level to a level similar to that of the Lord of the Universe because he possessed a strengthening secret technique.

How did Luo Feng manage to do that?
It was thanks to the power enhanced by the armor that it was protected.

Therefore, this also shows the power of the Mech Arcana.

However, while the mechanical treasures are powerful, they are also extremely difficult to craft.

Luo Fan is now basically unable to refine any mechanical race treasures.

The only thing that can be refined is the precious mechanical puppet.

Looking at the Sky-Splitting Blade in front of him, Luo Fan stopped thinking about anything else and directly recognized it as his master.

He began to study the secret patterns on the Sky-Splitting Blade.

At this moment, the main body and the three clones stopped doing anything else and focused on comprehending the secret runes.

If it's an incarnation, then it continues to refine supreme treasures.

In order to shorten the time required to comprehend the secret runes, Luo Fan's main body, mechanical race clone, and space worm clone directly entered the Cosmic Tower and activated a hundredfold time flow rate.

The Primal Universe Avatar also directly accelerated the time flow of the Origin Land to a hundred times that of the Primal Universe.

In other words, the time flow rate of Luo Fan's main body, his mechanical race clone, and his space worm clone is equivalent to ten thousand times that of the original universe.

This is the most cost-effective method that Luo Fan discovered.

Otherwise, if the original universe clone were to directly adjust the time flow of the source land to ten thousand times, the consumption would increase significantly.

The combined effect of these two methods will result in lower energy consumption.

Unfortunately, the original universe clone itself cannot benefit from the time flow bonus.

……

Soon, less than a year had passed in the primordial universe, and Luo Fan had mastered the first layer of secret runes on the Sky-Splitting Blade.

After all, this layer of secret runes is only equivalent to the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe.

For Luo Fan, who has already created the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, mastering it is not difficult.

After mastering it, Luo Fan also began to refer to this secret rune to create his own strongest secret technique for the Lord of the Universe.

Within the primordial universe's origin, a powerful fluctuation of laws occasionally emanates. This is Luo Fan experimenting with a secret technique he created.

By performing secret techniques within the primordial universe's origin, Luo Fan can perfectly control these energies.

There will be absolutely no consumption.

At the beginning, he was also preparing to try to improve his previous secret technique, namely the Whale Fin Slash.

However, Luo Fan soon thought of something.

Although his water-space fusion law has also improved.

However, he did not fully understand it.

Therefore, it is still quite difficult to use it to create the strongest secret technique for the Lord of the Universe.

It's like trying to make a blade from wood that's even sharper than an iron sword.

This is extremely difficult.

Therefore, Luo Fan began to focus on the fundamental laws of space, combined with other fundamental laws.

This is also the idea behind the Rift Blade's secret runes.

Although the Sky-Splitting Blade is based on the fundamental laws of space.

However, there are also combinations with the other nine fundamental laws.

Every time Luo Fan perfected his secret technique, he would proactively seek out other human universe masters or giant axe masters in the virtual universe for a duel.

He could also use this to find the weaknesses in his secret techniques.

The other human powerhouses also had no intention of holding back.

They all shared their experiences in creating secret techniques with Luo Fan, as well as some good inspirations.

When they discover a flaw in Luo Fan's secret technique, they will proactively inform Luo Fan.

Everyone hoped that Luo Fan's strength could improve again.

……

And so time passed, and soon, a hundred years had gone by.

Luo Fan has been in seclusion in the Tower of the Universe for a million years!

Over this long period of time, Luo Fan created a total of three ultimate secret techniques for the new universe master.

These three secret techniques were all created based on the Rift Blade.

The power of these three secret techniques is already very close to that of the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe.

Luo Fan began to keep trying.

Unlike Luo Feng, who was able to comprehend the secret rune pattern inheritance.

Luo Fan did not possess the complete set of the eight Beast God statues.

Therefore, he did not inherit the complete secret rune pattern.

The reason why Luo Feng was able to create a secret technique at the level of the Lord of the Universe during his Venerable period was mainly due to the Secret Pattern Flow.

If one is lucky enough, the Secret Pattern Flow can create secret techniques far beyond their own level.

However, secret techniques created using normal methods cannot achieve this.

The secret techniques created by the Secret Pattern Flow may not even be known to the Flowers themselves.

However, creating laws is not enough; one must be familiar with the underlying principles in order to create the corresponding secret techniques.

Of course, both have their advantages and disadvantages.

However, it would be best if one could master all of them.

Unfortunately, Luo Fan does not currently possess a complete statue of the Beast God.

He had already placed those beast god statues inside his original universe clone.

It will take a long time to comprehend even a portion of the secret patterns.

It's worth noting that in the original novel, Luo Feng also spent a considerable amount of time mastering those secret runes.

Although Luo Fan has amazing comprehension, he is still unable to master a portion of the Secret Pattern Flow inheritance in a short period of time.

Just as he was creating the secret technique, a message suddenly came from one of his avatars.

Luo Feng has emerged from seclusion!
Previously, Luo Feng had been in seclusion because he needed to acknowledge the Star Tower as his master.

Because the Star Tower involves willpower.

Therefore, not only Luo Feng's clones, but also his other avatars went into seclusion.

It had only been a little over a hundred years since Luo Feng went to recognize the Star Tower as his master.

Luo Fan was surprised that he had successfully recognized the master so quickly.

Although Luo Feng's will has reached the Venerable level.

However, the Star Tower is, after all, a supreme treasure at the level of a god-king.

Luo Feng is merely a realm lord.

Even if the requirements are met, it is impossible for the animal to recognize its master in a short period of time.

Luo Fan never expected that he would successfully recognize a master in just over a hundred years.

……

Earth, the living room of the Luo family villa.

At this moment, the Luo brothers were sitting in the living room drinking tea.

"I didn't expect you to obtain this opportunity so quickly."

Luo Fan had a hint of emotion on his face.

Upon hearing this, a look of reminiscence appeared on Luo Feng's face.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Fan could clearly see a hint of relief and lingering fear in Luo Feng's eyes.

"Brother, although I have already met the requirements."

"But we still almost failed."

At this point, Luo Feng gave a wry smile.

"The opportunity I received this time is actually the Star Tower that recognizes its master."

"It's the Star Tower on the seventh battlefield of the extraterritorial battlefield."

"Did you know that the Star Tower was actually crafted by a powerful being!"

"Even our Earth was created by that great being."

Upon hearing this, Luo Fan took a sip of tea, looked at the somewhat excited Luo Feng, and slowly spoke.

“I know, the mountain dweller.”

"This... Brother, how did you know?"

Luo Feng looked at Luo Fan with some shock.

He didn't expect that Luo Fan knew about this.

"You don't know this, but actually, there is a passage to other universes within our current Milky Way galaxy."

"Therefore, my teacher, the Lord of the Ice Peaks, is currently guarding the Milky Way."

"The giant axe also came to Earth back then."

"He also learned that Earth was transformed by the Mountain Man by reversing time."

"Any living being born on Earth is naturally more gifted in terms of temperament and willpower."

"In fact, if it weren't for my high status among humans, a large number of other branches of humans would have appeared on Earth after this was discovered."

"However, I never expected that the Star Tower was also created by the Mountain-Sitting Guest."

Luo Fan couldn't very well say that he knew the Star Tower was crafted by the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

After all, there are very few people in the universe who know about this.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng's face showed a hint of shock.

"Fortunately, my older brother told us to hide our origins."

"Otherwise, if the four of us had exposed our relationship back then, Earth might have been discovered long ago."

"Two geniuses from Earth, or rather, from Origin Star and the Mountain and Sea Realm, have previously claimed ownership of the Star Tower."

"However, they all failed."

"The difficulty of recognizing a master in the Star Tower is extremely high."

"If it weren't for the Reincarnation Fruit you gave me back then, which helped my will break through to the Venerable level."

"This time, I may fail to recognize the Lord."

As he spoke, a hint of relief and gratitude reappeared on Luo Feng's face.

"However, I am not strong enough right now, so I cannot activate the Star Tower."

Upon hearing this, Luo Fan nodded and spoke.

"Now that you have successfully recognized the Star Tower as your master, what are your plans for the future?"

A thoughtful look flashed in Luo Feng's eyes.

After a while, he spoke.

"I'm going to the Ice Prison to obtain the second part of the Nameless Scripture."
