Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 135 Beast God Crystal
Subsequently, Lu Jin transformed once again into a miniature version of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone, continuing to fuse with the Blood Crystal.

Lu Jin ran his left hand across his right palm, creating a wound from which bright red blood oozed out. He then used his mental power to control a second Blood Crystal to cover the wound.

The next moment, an invisible force rushed into Lu Jin's body.

The 'Blood Luo Power' hidden within his body manifested, and some blood-red secret patterns appeared on Lu Jin's chest.

'boom! ’

A murderous intent descended upon his consciousness.

Moreover, the killing intent that descended upon my consciousness this time was twice as strong as the last one.

'kill! ’

'kill! ’

The deafening shouts of battle echoed throughout Lu Jin's mind.

However, even though the intensity of this killing intent was twice that of the previous one, it could not shake Lu Jin's true form, which had transformed into a miniature version of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone.

Once again, the killing intent was easily crushed. Strands of blood-red energy burst out from the Blood Crystal, turning into blood-red threads that flowed along the wound in Lu Jin's palm and into his body.

Suddenly, the familiar alienation reappeared.

A wave of pain, stronger than before, swept through Lu Jin's entire body. Every part of his body, and even every cell, was being transformed by the wondrous power contained in the Blood Crystal.

After a long while, a few more lines appeared on the blood-red secret pattern on Lu Jin's chest. Although the entire pattern was still incomplete, it looked more complete.

The pain that swept through his body during the impact and transformation of the killing intent was still within his tolerance range and far from the limit, so Lu Jin continued to fuse with the third Blood Crystal.

Before long, the anomaly ended, and Lu Jin transformed back into his human form.

Several more crimson runes appeared on his chest, making the crimson runes, though somewhat simple, form a complete crimson pattern.

Blood Warrior, achieved!

At this moment, under the resonance of the complete 'Blood Luo Power', Lu Jin felt that the fluctuations of the ten fundamental laws of the universe—metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, space, and time—became twice as clear.

Moreover, not only has the perception of laws doubled, but the power to unleash laws has also doubled.

Doubling the power is equivalent to doubling the original power, which is equivalent to raising the power level by one tier.

'No wonder Luo Feng's comprehension of the laws was so rapid after experiencing the Blood Luo World in the original novel.'

Lu Jin sighed inwardly.

Luo Feng possesses the body of a Golden Horned Beast. In just a few decades, one of the Golden Horned Beast's claws fused with more than ninety Blood Crystals. With nine times the affinity for the laws, how could his speed of comprehending the laws not be fast?

An hour later, disguised as an ordinary meteorite, the Shenzhou spaceship, traveling at sub-light speed outside the eighteen layers of clouds above the Blood Continent, began to decelerate and eventually came to a stop.

The next moment, a faint spatial fluctuation appeared, and the Water Kirin clone teleported out of the spaceship control room, then rode the Water Cloud Disc towards the distant Lanxiao World City below.

At the same time, the consciousness of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone in the Great Luo Heaven communicated with the Kunlun Mirror and began to remotely explore the entire Lanxiao World City.

Lanxiao World City is very large, far exceeding the main city of Boli, but the exploration range of Kunlun Mirror is even greater.

Driven by the Netherworld Blood Sea avatar at the peak of the ninth level of the Domain Lord, the Kunlun Mirror's detection range is over a million kilometers in diameter.

The search mode for powerhouses with strength of Realm Lord or above was activated. From God's perspective, Lu Jin saw four dazzling pillars of light appear throughout the entire Lanxiao World City.

One World Lord at the peak of the seventh rank, one World Lord at the fifth rank, and two World Lords below the fifth rank.

After shifting his perspective and investigating further, Lu Jin learned the specific levels of these four realm lords.

Of course, life level is not the only factor in measuring the strength of a target, especially at the realm lord stage.

Even though these world lords are just natives of the Blood Luo World, there are still genius world lords among them.

However, one thing is certain: the strength of these four realm lords is very limited.

After all, none of these four people have been recognized by the fundamental laws.

The Water Kirin clone possesses 120 times the life gene, 100 times the soul amplitude, and its mental power intensity is at least 12000 times that of a typical peak ninth-level domain lord of the same level.

A peak seventh-level Realm Lord is 64 times stronger than a newly entered first-level Realm Lord. Even considering the dozens of times difference between a peak ninth-level Domain Lord and a first-level Realm Lord after the life leap, a peak seventh-level Realm Lord is only two to three thousand times stronger than an ordinary peak ninth-level Domain Lord.

12000 times compared to 2,000-3,000 times—the advantage is mine!

Enveloped in soul power, the Water Kirin clone arrived outside Lanxiao World City without attracting the attention of all the experts within the city.

'Swish!' 'Swish!' 'Swish!'

A faint spatial ripple arose, and the water unicorn clones, transformed into human form, teleported one after another, appearing inside a luxurious palace in the central area of ​​Lanxiao World City.

"Crunch~, crunch~"

In the blink of an eye, Lu Jin was transported into the hall. He saw an antique-style bed with curtains hanging in the center of the hall, which was swaying rhythmically.

From God's perspective, Lu Jin could only see a red-haired, red-eyed man and a charming woman engaging in what seemed like healthy physical and mental activities on an antique-style bed.

'Guardian!'

Lu Jin's expression hardened, and the illusory bell within his sea of ​​consciousness surged, releasing an intangible and formless soul power that enveloped the red-haired, red-eyed city lord who was diligently working.

next moment.

‘Boom——’

Like a bell that shakes the universe, Evans, who was happily procreating with his 10086th concubine, was completely stunned by the bell that resounded throughout his mind.

Immediately afterwards, a radiant talisman flew over at lightning speed and pierced straight into Evans's brow.

"Lord City Lord, hurry up and move!"

Noticing that the city lord on her body had suddenly stopped moving, the charming concubine, who was immersed in pleasure, opened her watery eyes and couldn't help but urge him on.

Being stuck in the middle is the most uncomfortable.

"Hmph~, you lowly servant, do you expect me to serve you?"

After pausing for two seconds, Evans snorted coldly, directly taking the charming concubine into his inner world, and then quickly put on a piece of clothing.

"Evans greets his master!"

After putting on his clothes, Evans flashed in front of Lu Jin and bowed down.

"Do you have any Blood Crystal?"

Lu Jin asked.

“Master, I currently have 13 Blood Crystals.”

Speaking respectfully, Evans took out a delicate little box from his spatial ring, opened it, and handed it to Lu Jin.

Inside the exquisite little box, there were more than a dozen beautiful blood crystals neatly arranged.

"Not bad!"

Lu Jin nodded in satisfaction, put away the Blood Crystal, and asked, "Do you have a map of the nearby worlds? It doesn't need to be too detailed, just mark where the world cities of each world are."

Upon hearing this, Evans quickly took out a huge animal hide scroll from his spatial ring and handed it to Lu Jin.

Evans said, "Master, this map was drawn ten thousand years ago using the fur of wild beasts with domain skills as its material."

It records the locations of all world cities and territorial main cities in the vicinity of the Lanxiao World ten thousand years ago.

The Blood Luo World was 10,000 years ago, which is 70,000 years ago according to Earth's timeline.

However, a Domain Lord has a lifespan of a million years, while a Realm Lord has a lifespan of tens of millions of years.

Even if a map is from 70,000 years ago, it may have some errors when used today, but it is still generally usable.

Taking the animal hide map, Lu Jin tossed Evans a Kunlun Token and said, "Keep this safe. I'll give you two years. Apart from carrying out a massacre, do everything you can to collect Blood Crystals."

"Yes, Master!"

"I'll take the Kunlun Token," Evans said respectfully.

The next moment, Lu Jin's figure disappeared from the hall, teleporting back to the Shenzhou spaceship hovering outside the eighteenth layer of luck, and then headed towards the next world city.

Lu Jin did not kill Evans.

Killing Evans would only yield him 13 Blood Crystals and some largely useless valuables.

Moreover, if the lord of a world city goes missing, the Immortal Temple of the Blood Luo World is very likely to send people to investigate.

One or two is fine; the Immortal Temple won't investigate too hard.

However, if the number of missing persons is too high, the situation will become quite serious.

The one who oversees the Blood Luo World is the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master, a top-tier cosmic overlord. Even excluding the fact that the Blood Luo World is very important to the human race, it is enough to show that the Immortal Temple of the Blood Luo World has some foundation.

Perhaps there aren't any truly ruthless individuals among the Cosmic Venerables, but there definitely are.

If things get too big and they keep staying there, then...

Even if the Cosmic Venerable had the Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grass with ten times the genetic power of the King-level limit, he absolutely couldn't withstand the Cosmic Venerable's close-range attack.

Of course, it's more likely that before the native Venerable of the Blood Luo World came to him, the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master had already thrown him out of the Blood Luo World, forbidding him from causing trouble again.

By choosing not to kill Evans and instead turning him into a soul servant, allowing him to use any means necessary to obtain Blood Crystals, he would be able to acquire far more than 13 Blood Crystals in the future.

The entire Lanxiao World City's ruling area has a diameter of over 800 million kilometers, and there are more than 600 territorial main cities within its territory.

Even if each territory's main city can only produce one Blood Crystal, Lu Jin can still obtain more than six hundred Blood Crystals.

This is much more efficient than collecting it himself.

Capture more world city lords as servants and make them do everything they can to obtain Blood Crystals. I believe it won't be long before he can achieve freedom regarding Blood Crystals.

As for wantonly enslaving others?

He was seen as an alien by the natives of the Blood Luo World, and once his identity was exposed, he would become their common enemy. Since their positions were hostile, regardless of whether the other was good or evil, Lu Jin, with his flexible moral compass, would not feel guilty.

Inside the World Ring, Lu Jin's true form, transformed into a clone of the Netherworld Blood Sea, was fusing with the Blood Crystal.

"Hmm~"

A painful groan rang out.

Enduring intense pain that swept through his entire body and even permeated his soul, Lu Jin's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, and his entire body was undergoing transformation.

"puff!"

Suddenly, the scales on his right arm, which had transformed into a beast's claw during the strange event, shattered, splattering out bright red blood.

"Crack!"

Immediately afterwards, the bone in his right arm, which was growing unusually thick, broke with a crisp sound.

Like a falling domino, Lu Jin's entire body began to show signs of collapse.

"Whoosh-"

The next second, a sound like the gentle flow of water rang out, and a large number of blood-red threads rapidly flowed back from Lu Jin's body, returning to the blood crystal in his right hand, which had become somewhat transparent.

Soon, the blood crystal, which had appeared transparent, returned to its original crystal-clear blood-red color.

"Huh~"

Gasping for breath, with many muscles and bones ruptured all over his body and bright red blood flowing as if it were free, Lu Jin changed his mind and entered the inner world of the primordial core.

"Whoosh whoosh-"

Within his body, on the Nine-Colored Continent, a nine-colored mist gathered, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Jin, who had almost been tormented to death, recovered completely.

Recalling the pain that had nearly driven him to the brink of collapse, Lu Jin frowned in deep thought.

Based on the available information, excluding the factor that the life form is too large and requires the fusion of more Blood Crystals to be effective.

Each time a Blood Crystal is fused, the intensity of the killing intent that emerges is twice that of the previous one.

When the body undergoes the transformation by the Blood Crystal, the test on a certain aspect of the body is ten times greater than that of the previous crystal.

In the original story, when Luo Feng first arrived in the Blood Luo World, his human body, which was at the peak of the ninth level of the universe, had fused with a Blood Luo Crystal, but he was unable to successfully fuse with a second one.

Compared to Luo Feng at that time, his human form, although at the same level, was also at the peak of the ninth rank of the universe.

However, he possesses a hundred times the life genes, and when he becomes a clone of the Netherworld Blood Sea and withstands the impact of the killing intent, his physical strength is sufficient to support him in fusing the second and third Blood Crystals.

Taking into account the factor of a hundred times the body's amplitude, theoretically his physical strength is sufficient to fuse the fourth and fifth Blood Crystals.

"So, fusing five Blood Crystals is my current limit?"

Lu Jin frowned to himself.

There are ways to increase the maximum number of Blood Crystals that can be fused.

When fusing with Blood Crystal, the test on the body is ten times that of the previous crystal. However, this tenfold increase in intensity does not refer to the strength of the body's foundation, but rather to a more subtle change.

Through mass killings or being cleansed by malevolent energy, one can increase the body's tolerance limit to Blood Crystals.

Of course, to obtain stronger 'Blood Luo Power', it is not necessary to fuse with Blood Luo Crystal; fusing with the blood of the Beast God is the same.

The blood of the Beast God is extracted from Blood Crystal.

Compared to Blood Crystal, both have the same effect, but fusing with the blood of the Beast God is much easier.

However, although the blood of the Beast God is very valuable, it takes 100 Blood Crystals to extract just one drop of it.

Moreover, this is only the material cost for refining the blood of the Beast God. The other expenses incurred during the entire refining process must be beyond imagination.

Otherwise, if a drop of Beast God's blood is only equivalent to 100 Blood Crystals, wouldn't the human race's cosmic overlords be incredibly powerful?

100 drops of Beast God's blood are only worth 10000 Blood Crystals. For the Blood Continent, which is a full light-year in diameter, what are a mere 1 Blood Crystals?
With a hundredfold increase in genes and the ultimate level of Bloodlust power, even if it doesn't become ten thousand times the genes, it's definitely possible to achieve several thousand times the genes.

"If Blood Crystal can be used to extract the blood of the Beast God, then Blood Crystal is a derivative of the corpse of the Innate Metal Beast God?"

Lu Jin couldn't help but let his thoughts wander.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Jin stored a Blood Crystal into his cheat space.

Immediately afterwards, the Netherworld Blood Sea clone in the Great Luo Heaven took out the Blood Crystal from the external space and put it into the Demon Refining Pot.

The Primordial Golden Beast God is dead. If the Blood Crystal is indeed a derivative of the Primordial Golden Beast God's corpse, it should be able to decompose into some special items, right?
Lu Jin's consciousness sank into the Demon Refining Pot, where he observed the changes in the Blood Crystal.

Inside the Demon Refining Pot, in the center of the infinitely large, hazy space, the magnificent Blood Crystal, shaped like a triangular prism, shimmered with a hazy gray light.

Before long, the Blood Crystal disappeared, and in its place was a pale golden crystal about the size of a thumb, with countless facets.

Lu Jin communicated with the spirit of the Demon-Refining Pot, Yao Yao, and asked, "Yao Yao, what is this thing?"

Yao Yao quickly sent back feedback.

—Unnamed item, currently in a damaged state. Its effect is to form a strange power after refinement. This strange power can enhance the power and affinity of all laws, and at the same time amplify life genes.

'A crystal version of the Blood of the Beast God?'

The moment Lu Jin received the feedback, this thought popped into his mind.

Without hesitation, Lu Jin sent the remaining 10 Blood Crystals on his body to his Netherworld Blood Sea clone through the external storage space.

Soon, the 11 Blood Crystals in total turned into two thumb-sized crystals with countless facets.

The difference is that the complete one is a dazzling gold, while the incomplete one is a pale gold.

Undoubtedly, 10 Blood Crystals can be broken down into 1 small golden crystal through the Demon Refining Pot.

"Let's call it... Beast God's Crystal?"

After a moment's thought, Lu Jin gave this small, shimmering golden crystal a name.

The next second, through the transfer of the external space, the complete Beast God Crystal appeared in Lu Jin's hand.

"Looks like we still have to bleed them dry."

Holding the Beast God Crystal in his hand, Lu Jin noticed no reaction. He then pointed his right hand at his left palm and made a cut, before pressing the golden Beast God Crystal directly onto the cut.

In an instant, Lu Jin saw the Beast God Crystal emit a dazzling golden light, which then turned into dense golden threads that disappeared into his body along the wound.

As dense golden threads entered his body, Lu Jin's entire skin shone with a dazzling golden glow, making him appear as if he had turned into a golden statue.

Warmth—that's how Lu Jin felt at that moment.

It felt like soaking in a hot spring; my whole body felt warm and comfortable, and I didn't feel any pain at all.

Before long, the golden light emanating from his body faded, and everything returned to calm.

However, under Lu Jin's perception, his own law perception and power were enhanced once again!
At this moment, Lu Jin felt as if she were surrounded by happiness once again.

The Demon Refining Pot is so amazing! It can decompose into Beast God Crystals with the same effects as Beast God Blood, and one Beast God Crystal only requires 10 Blood Crystals without any other cost. This is simply fantastic!
In the world of Blood Luo, Blood Luo Crystals aren't exactly everywhere, but if you have enough power, they're not hard to obtain.

It's no exaggeration to say that the ultimate level of Bloodlust Power, which is a hundredfold increase in gene amplification and tenfold affinity with laws, is beckoning to him!

'Perfect genes, I'm taking them!'

With his left hand making a grasping motion, Lu Jin clenched his fist, a burning light flashing in his eyes.

Consuming ginseng fruit can amplify life genes by a thousandfold, while the gene amplification of the ultimate bloodline power is a hundredfold. Multiplying the two together, that's a hundred thousandfold.

In other words, even if the power of Bloodlust at the ultimate level is severely weakened, as long as the gene amplification factor can reach more than ten times, his human body, water unicorn clone, and Netherworld Blood Sea clone can all achieve a perfect gene of 10081 times.

As for the process of fusing with Blood Crystal, the frequent impact of high-intensity killing intent can effectively enhance one's will.
Don't panic, there will be plenty of opportunities to gain experience, this one won't make a difference.

Moreover, as long as you are strong enough, willpower and such are all meaningless.

One force can overcome all methods; this applies to any world.

If one day you die because your willpower isn't strong enough, it only means that your strength isn't strong enough and your cheat codes aren't powerful enough.

In the time that followed, the world city lords of the surrounding worlds suffered as Lu Jin descended upon the Blood Luo World region.

Apart from a few high-level World Lord-level City Lords, they were all probed remotely by Lu Jin using the Kunlun Mirror, attacked by the Water Qilin clone's teleportation, and bewitched by the Soul-Suppressing Bell's secret technique, who planted exorcising talismans to turn them into soul servants.

Then he began to contribute Blood Crystals to Lu Jin, and then he began to disregard all shame and use methods including but not limited to ordering his subordinates to make offerings, borrowing money from the Immortal Temple, and promising to pledge allegiance to a certain important figure to collect Blood Crystals on a large scale.

While constantly shifting locations, developing downstream networks, and efficiently collecting Blood Crystals, Lu Jin also discovered a problem that was quite difficult for him to handle.

A maximum of 100 Blood Crystals can be fused together. Once 100 Blood Crystals have been fused, no more can be fused together.

However, Lu Jin knew that 100 Blood Crystals were only the fusion limit for small-sized life forms. For larger life forms, the number required to reach the fusion limit would be far more than 100.

Just like Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast body, to obtain the ultimate level of Blood Luo Power, it needs to fuse 1000 Blood Luo Crystals.

His water unicorn clone was alright; although its size far exceeded that of the human original, it was probably only about the same size as the Golden Horned Beast.

But the Netherworld Blood Sea clone is different.

Even without Lu Jin increasing the size of the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Netherworld Blood Sea clone at the peak of the ninth rank of Domain Lord still had a height of 1000 kilometers in human form.

The Golden Horned Beast, which is also at the peak of the ninth rank of Domain Lord, is only about ninety kilometers long.

Given the sheer size of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone, how many Blood Crystals or Beast God Crystals would it need to fuse to obtain the ultimate level of Blood Power?
On the third day of the robbery plan (Blood Luo World time), Lu Jin, who could travel to more than a dozen world cities a day with the Shenzhou spaceship, calculated the number of Blood Luo Crystals needed for the Water Kirin clone and the Netherworld Blood Sea clone after some fusion attempts.

Unlike human clones, perhaps because its life form is not human, when the Water Kirin clone merges with the Blood Crystal, each part can form a separate blood-colored secret pattern.

The six parts of the Water Kirin clone—the right forelimb claw, the left forelimb claw, the right hindlimb claw, the left hindlimb claw, the head, and the tail—all require the fusion of three Blood Crystals to form a complete secret pattern.

The torso, which occupies the largest proportion of the entire body, requires the fusion of 12 Blood Crystals to form a complete crimson secret pattern.

In other words, the Water Kirin clone needs to fuse with 30 Blood Crystals to become a Blood Warrior, which is ten times the number needed for the human original.
