Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 229 Taking Flight, Returning to Chaos City

'Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, Divine Body Expansion Secret Technique.'

At this moment, Lu Jin was overjoyed.

The existence of a divine power burning technique within the Inheritance Tower was within his expectations.

The complete Heavenly Inheritance Tower has nine levels, with the fifth level corresponding to the True God level.

The sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth levels, which have not yet been obtained, correspond to the Void True God, Eternal True God, Chaos Ruler, and God King levels, respectively, based on the life level.

As a systematic lineage of God-Kings, including the True Gods and those below, there's no reason why it wouldn't include the secret technique of burning divine power.

The secret technique that can increase the size of a divine body is something that didn't appear in the original work, so it was naturally beyond Lu Jin's expectations.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Lord of the Universe can increase the size of his divine body, preventing the divine bodies of many pure-blooded human Lords of the Universe from becoming tiny bean sprouts among their peers.

However, for the Lord of the Universe to increase the size of his divine body, he needs to consume a large amount of precious resources.

In the initial stages, things were fine; the cost-effectiveness of improving one's divine body size was not low.

However, once it reaches a certain level, even the combined strength of the entire peak-level clan cannot sustain it.

The "Law of Heaven and Earth" supernatural power, however, can be cultivated without consuming resources, only requiring comprehension.

Upon mastering the third level, the height or length of one's divine body increases a thousandfold; a two-meter divine body can be increased to two kilometers, which is truly something to celebrate.

Most importantly, there is no conflict between the increase in the size of the divine body in "The Law of Heaven and Earth" and the increase in the size of the divine body by the Lord of the Universe through resources.

If the Lord of the Universe were to elevate his divine body to a height of thousands of kilometers, and then cultivate to the third level of the "Law of Heaven and Earth," then the height of his divine body would be as high as millions of kilometers.

As for the difficulty of cultivation?
With the Bodhi tree greatly enhancing one's enlightenment, it shouldn't reach an outrageous level.

Three days later, under the guidance of the artifact spirit Tiantian, Lu Jin gained a general understanding of the various inheritances within the Heavenly Court's Inheritance Tower.

Besides the systematic cultivation inheritance for True Gods and below, and the two supernatural powers, Lu Jin also discovered something good.

Compared to the Crystal Inheritance Tower, which only inherits the art of treasure refining, the Heavenly Court Inheritance Tower is all-encompassing, containing many treasure refining inheritances as well.

Although the Heavenly Inheritance Tower, which currently only has five floors, does not contain as many treasures as the Crystal Inheritance Tower, it does contain a type of treasure that the Crystal Inheritance Tower does not have.

That is a treasure for enlightenment.

Enlightenment-related treasures are specifically divided into two types: one that enhances affinity with laws, and the other that simply enhances comprehension.

'Using the divine essence of laws as material, perhaps we can create extraordinary treasures for enlightenment?'

Lu Jin thought to himself.

Shaking his head, Lu Jin informed his subordinates in the Lingxiao Palace that the Heavenly Court's Inheritance Tower contained a complete inheritance before leaving the tower.

Subsequently, the Netherworld Blood Sea clone within the Netherworld Heavenly God Kingdom moved its mind and connected with the Kunlun Mirror, while the true body disappeared from the Great Luo Heaven.

In the vast starry sky of the Heavenly Frost Universe Kingdom, a palace complex stretching for millions of kilometers floats.

At the center of the palace complex stands a 100,000-kilometer-high ice-blue palace.

"Shh!"

Lu Jin's figure appeared instantly before the majestic, ice-blue palace.

"Disciple Lu Jin greets Master."

Lu Jin bowed towards the inside of the hall.

Although in terms of strength, he has surpassed his teacher, the Lord of Tianshuang Kingdom.

However, Lu Jin still deeply respects the only teacher in his life, and this respect will not change because of his own strength.

Without the careful guidance of his teacher, the King of Tianshuang Kingdom, his growth rate would not have been so fast.

Putting aside the factor of external cheats, he used to be carried by his teacher, the King of Tianshuang Kingdom, but from now on, he will be the one carrying his teacher, the King of Tianshuang Kingdom.

The sound entered the Heavenly Frost Temple. The Heavenly Frost King, who was sitting on the throne with his eyes closed in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Lu Jin outside the temple.

"!!!"

This sight was astonishing; the King of Tianshuang immediately widened his eyes.

Not immortal, but a cosmic supreme being... no, a top-tier cosmic overlord?

"You bastard, get in here right now!"

The King of Tianshuang hurriedly said with an excited expression.

Compared to other races, humans do not have an advantage in terms of bloodline and physique. Even the strongest bloodline only has six times the life genes, which results in very few top cosmic overlords among humans who have the strength to rival ordinary cosmic lords.

Moreover, the three top cosmic overlords of the human race today, the Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, the Venerable of the Ancestral Tree, and the Demon Lord of the Star Prison, either possessed special life forms or had secret techniques for creating clones, thus giving birth to clones of special life forms.

However, after Lu Jin entered the realm of the Universe Venerable, the human race produced its fourth top-tier cosmic overlord.

Of course, in the eyes of the Heavenly Frost King, Lu Jin at this time could only be considered a top-tier cosmic overlord in reserve.

After all, he had just broken through, his understanding of the laws had not yet reached the level of a cosmic overlord, and he had not yet acquired all the treasures.

"teacher."

Upon entering the Heavenly Frost Temple, Lu Jin respectfully bowed.

"I thought you were just a kid who had entered the Immortal realm, but I never expected you to break through one after another and enter the Universe Venerable realm."

Looking at his prized student, the King of Tianshuang couldn't help but sigh.

"Luck played a large role in my ability to reach the level of a Universe Venerable."

Lu Jin said with a smile.

To be honest, being able to reach the level of a Cosmic Venerable is truly a matter of luck.

If the Immortal-level treasure chest given by the cheat didn't yield the Bodhi Tree, he couldn't say how long it would take for him to integrate the three superior mysteries and transform them into complete superior laws.

"When it comes to strength, what does luck have to do with it? What kind of strength do you think you have right now?"

The King of Tianshuang asked with a look of inquiry.

He had a basic understanding of Lu Jin's strength in the Water-Sky Beast God Path.

However, if Lu Jin had comprehended the laws of time during his Realm Lord stage, then his strength in the realm of spacetime would be unknown.

After a moment's thought, Lu Jin said, "The Lord of the Universe."

Upon hearing this, the King of Tianshuang was stunned, and said with an incredulous expression, "Are you sure?"

The Heavenly Frost King was well aware of how the power of the Universe Lords was divided, and he believed that Lu Jin also had a general understanding of it.

Lu Jin said, "When I was the Realm Lord, I had already comprehended the three mysteries of time."

In terms of the Dao of Spacetime, the disciple's understanding of the laws is no less than that of an ordinary cosmic overlord.

Furthermore, the disciple is a perfect genetic being; upon achieving 10081 times the perfection of genetic potential, the primordial will of the universe bestowed upon him the most powerful offensive talent technique.

The Frost King: "."

With his understanding of the laws at the level of a cosmic overlord, coupled with his strongest innate secret technique, his strength is indeed at the level of a cosmic lord.

But the problem is, you don't have 'ordinary' life genes that are about 10,000 times stronger, but rather 10081 times stronger perfect genes?
Seeing the teacher's sullen face, Lu Jin smiled, waved his hand, and 9981 top-grade peaches, a golden Bodhi seed that looked like glass, and a world ring materialized in front of him.

"Teacher, this peach is called the Pan Peach. Consuming it can disregard the gene limitation of a hundredfold and enhance life genes."

These are Bodhi seeds, which can enhance enlightenment. This world ring contains a considerable amount of unclaimed divine power, enough to fill the divine power gap after you achieve perfect genes.

As Lu Jin spoke, numerous peaches, bodhi seeds, and world rings materialized and flew to the front of the Heavenly Frost King.

The growth cycle of a top-grade peach is nine thousand epochs, and there are 118800 peaches in one cycle. He still has quite a few in his pocket right now.

Instead of using the thousand-fold bloodline source crystals I have to match the top-grade peaches, I might as well just give them to the top-grade peaches directly.

Aside from soul servants, it's best to keep the Bloodline Source Crystal a secret.

As for its use by the Heavenly Court itself?

True geniuses, through the enlightenment bestowed by the Bodhi tree, can achieve perfect genes by comprehending the 10081 Daoist diagrams in the "Mila Supreme Diagram".

If someone can't achieve it and needs to rely on top-grade peaches to do so, then it means they're not a true genius and don't deserve special treatment from a cheat-like player like him.

"9981, can that create a perfect gene?"

Looking at the 9981 peaches before him, plus his own hundredfold life genes, which made a total of 10081, the Heavenly Frost King asked.

Lu Jin nodded.

What does "the gap in divine power after achieving perfect genes" mean?

The King of Tianshuang Kingdom couldn't help but ask curiously.

Lu Jin explained, "Teacher, the size of any perfectly genetically engineered life form will not be less than 90,000 kilometers."

If one's original body size is less than 90,000 kilometers, after achieving perfect genes and absorbing enough energy, one can increase their body size to more than 90,000 kilometers.

Moreover, if one's level is not at the level of the strongest in the universe, the primordial will will also grant them the strongest talent secret technique.

The type of the strongest talent secret technique is not fixed; some are physical attack types, some are soul attack types, and some are support types.

However, upon becoming the strongest being in the universe, all innate secret techniques will disappear, including the strongest innate secret technique bestowed by the primordial will.

"Since these peaches can create perfect genes, wouldn't it be a waste of resources to give them to your master, a cosmic overlord?"
Top-tier or even supreme treasures are extremely expensive. You should offer them to your clan in exchange for treasure points.

After a moment's hesitation, the King of Tianshuang said with a pained expression.

Giving him so many peaches would only create one top-tier cosmic overlord.

But if it were the various universe rulers of the human race, the situation would be different.

Since the peaches of immortality can create perfect genes, and the divine body of perfect genes can be elevated to at least 90,000 kilometers.

Therefore, giving these peaches to the cosmic lords, whose life genes are highly multiplied, would be the best way to maximize the use of this precious resource.

He was unaware of the size of the divine bodies of other universe lords.

However, he still knew about his father, the Lord of Ice Peaks' divine body. It was still a bit short of a thousand kilometers. Compared to the enormous divine body of more than 90,000 kilometers, it was like a toothpick.

Furthermore, Lu Jin can use this to obtain a large number of treasure points, which can be exchanged for a set of powerful treasures in the clan's treasure vault.

"This is a token of my appreciation, please accept it, Master. I also have more peaches to offer."

Lu Jin shook his head and said.

"There's more? It seems you've acquired some extraordinary inheritance. In that case, your master won't hold back."

The King of Tianshuang said with a smile.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Lu Jin asked his teacher, the Heavenly Frost Kingdom Lord, for a divine power crystal before leaving the Heavenly Frost Temple.

The cosmic overlord has fallen, and even the Lord of Chaos City cannot be resurrected; only a true god-level giant axe can help.

If the top overlord with perfect genes were to perish, even a giant axe would have to pay a considerable price.

If one's own teacher were to accidentally suffer a setback, they would inevitably have to work for countless years to pay off their debts. It would be better to leave a divine mark in the Immortal Transformation Pool as a foundation for resurrection.

After leaving the Frost God Temple, Lu Jin traveled to the Virtual Universe Company headquarters continent via a spatial passage located not far from the temple. He then boarded a spaceship and entered the Initial Universe through the cosmic passage.

Having a number of unused treasures in his possession, Lu Jin planned to exchange them and also check if there were any top-tier palace treasures in the clan's treasury.

As for the treasure vault exchange application, he had already applied for and been approved by the virtual universe intelligence when he left the celestial realm.

Chaos City, within the Chaos Ruins.

The Chaos City Lord, whose divine body was already over 10,000 kilometers long but was still using the Origin Treasure to absorb divine power to fill the gap, opened his eyes and looked at the human cultivators who had entered the initial universe after the cosmic passage opened.

Whenever a human enters the initial universe, the Lord of Chaos City takes a look to prevent alien spies from infiltrating his base.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, upon seeing Lu Jin's figure, the Chaos City Lord, who hadn't paid much attention before and assumed it was just a routine check, was taken aback.

what's the situation?
This kid broke through? And he broke through two levels in a row, becoming a top-tier cosmic overlord?
After glancing at the others and finding no spies, the Chaos City Lord had a thought and transmitted his voice to Lu Jin: 'Lu Jin, come to the City Lord's Mansion.'

As expected, this caught the attention of the Chaos City Lord, and Lu Jin nodded.

Even if the Lord of Chaos doesn't look for him, he will still go to the Lord of Chaos.

If you're going to start your own business, you should always give your original boss a heads-up beforehand, otherwise it would be impolite.

The gates of the City Lord's Mansion in Chaos City are always open, and people frequently come and go, since the Chaos Stele is located inside the City Lord's Mansion.

After entering the city lord's mansion, Lu Jin headed straight for the inner courtyard.

The outer gate of the palace remained open, but the inner gate was heavily guarded, with immortal gods standing guard.

At this moment, besides the immortal guards standing watch at the main gate of the inner palace, there was also a bald man in a red robe.

"Lu Jin".

Upon seeing Lu Jin approaching, the bald man in the red robe stepped forward to greet him.

Previously, when the Lord of Chaos City asked him to go to the gate of the inner palace to pick up Lu Jin, Venerable Guiyi was somewhat puzzled.

What level is this kid? What level am I, Guiyi?
Even if this kid has a close relationship with Venerable Guanghan, there's no need for me to go outside to greet him, is there?

However, since it was ordered by his teacher, the Lord of Chaos City, he dared not utter a single word of dissent.

But upon seeing this, Venerable Guiyi's gloom immediately dissipated.

Good heavens, this kid... no, Brother Lu has become a Universe Venerable!

In just a few hundred years, he rose from a mere stellar-level being to become a cosmic venerable. Regardless of his current strength, he is worthy of being treated as an equal.

"Normalization."

Lu Jin said with a smile.

Lu Jin naturally recognized the Chaos City Lord's personal disciple and the Universe Overlord of the Virtual Universe Company, Venerable Guiyi.

After offering their congratulations, Venerable Guiyi led Lu Jin along the wide corridor toward the depths of the inner palace.

Before long, the two arrived at a quiet courtyard.

Outside the quiet courtyard stood a stone tablet with the three characters 'Chaos Ruins' written on it, a universal language of the human race.

"This is the Chaos Ruins. Your teacher is waiting for you inside."

Venerable Guiyi pointed to the quiet courtyard.

After a pause, Venerable Guiyi continued, "Brother Lu, I wonder when Venerable Guanghan will be able to undertake the refining of supreme treasures again?"
