Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 231 Secret Pattern Diagram, Seventh Level

As for ordinary Origin Treasures, apart from buying all the ordinary Origin Treasures of the Gold element, Lu Jin did not exchange them for ordinary Origin Treasures of other attributes.

The reason for this is mainly because the Immortal-grade Star-Eating Grass's elemental attribute is metal.

The ordinary primordial treasure of the metal element can increase the recovery speed of divine power by a thousandfold for a Venerable-level Star-Eating Grass that has broken through the strongest shackles and possesses a hundredfold increase in genetic power and a divine body that radiates for tens of millions of kilometers.

The divine body of the Venerable-level Star-Eating Grass is already very large, and its divine power recovery efficiency is fast. With the original treasure further enhancing it by a thousand times, how can the divine power recovery speed be compared to other Venerables of the same universe?

In the future, if the Heavenly Generals of the Heavenly Court suffer damage to their divine bodies and want to quickly restore their divine power, instead of giving them ordinary primordial treasures of the corresponding attributes, it would be better to directly give them Life Source Crystals produced from Venerable-level Star-Eating Grass, or simply use Divine Source Liquid to restore them.

"Rumble--"

As 15200 Treasure Points were deducted, the stone disc, about 100 meters in diameter, slowly cracked open, revealing a deep passage.

Immediately afterwards, the five-colored divine light pearl, nine high-grade primordial treasures, and twelve ordinary primordial treasures that Lu Jin had exchanged for, a total of twenty-two treasures, slowly flew up.

After putting away these treasures, Lu Jin didn't exchange any more. He left the clan's treasure vault, exited the initial universe, and returned to the Heavenly Court.

With the Bodhi tree greatly enhancing her comprehension, once Zi Ni Chang's treasure-refining skills break through, she will be fully capable of refining high-grade treasures and even top-grade high-grade treasures on her own.

Through the combination of treasure sets, top-grade high-level treasure weapons can be completely comparable to top-grade treasures.

Furthermore, the supreme-grade palace treasures are almost immune to material attacks from fifth-order universe masters and greatly weaken soul attacks from them.

As for supreme treasures such as armor, soul-type, and domain-type supreme treasures, the subsequent arrangements will be the World-Destroying God Armor, the World-Purifying Lotus, and the Karmic Fire Lotus.

Within the lotus pond of Lingxiao Palace are three twelve-petaled lotus platforms, representing twelve treasures of each of the three types from this ten thousand epochs. These include Zi Ni Chang, Hong Er, and the seven others, as well as his true self and three avatars—exactly the number.

On the other side, in the Heavenly Frost Universe Kingdom, inside the Heavenly Frost Temple.

"Whoosh whoosh-"

Inside the 100,000-kilometer-high temple, the Heavenly Frost King, whose divine body had risen to 90,000 kilometers and whose head was almost touching the temple's dome, was happily absorbing the divine primordial liquid.

After Lu Jin left, the King of Tianshuang Kingdom used a secret technique to transform his divine body, making it larger, and then swallowed 9981 top-grade peaches in one go, achieving 10081 times the perfect genes.

Well, if the Chaos City Lord, who couldn't even cherish 500 top-grade peaches, saw his junior nephew so wasteful, directly swallowing 9981 top-grade peaches, he would probably be tempted to hang up and beat the Heavenly Frost Kingdom Lord.

After consuming 9981 top-grade peaches, he achieved perfect genes.

As expected, the Heavenly Frost King felt a hunger emanating from every cell in his body, and immediately began to absorb the divine source liquid given by Lu Jin to replenish the massive amount of divine power needed for the transformation of his divine body.

'What a treasure! It's just like the divine power bestowed by the very origin of the universe when breaking through a level.'

While happily consuming the divine source liquid, the Heavenly Frost King sighed inwardly.

After a while, the gap in divine power was filled, and the Heavenly Frost Kingdom Lord had already achieved a top-tier cosmic overlord divine body that was over 90,000 kilometers high.

Just as he was about to put away the remaining divine source liquid, time and space within the Heavenly Frost Temple instantly froze completely.

At this moment, the consciousness of the Heavenly Frost King was pulled to the origin of the universe by the primordial will.

It felt like a second, yet also like an eternity. When time and space within the temple returned to normal, the consciousness of the Heavenly Frost King returned to its place.

'The strongest innate secret technique?'

Raising an eyebrow, the Heavenly Frost King waved his hand, collected the remaining divine source liquid, and then flashed to appear in the desolate starry sky thousands of light-years away.

'Innate Secret Technique: Cosmic Torrent!'

With a silent shout, the Heavenly Frost King's divine power surged, and strands of law connected to form a huge secret pattern that stood in mid-air behind him, with a diameter of hundreds of millions of kilometers.

Immediately afterwards, the massive divine power, transformed through the giant secret pattern, became a violent gray torrent with a diameter of hundreds of millions of kilometers, surging towards the desolate starry sky ahead at a speed far exceeding the speed of light.

Wherever the hazy torrent passed, space turned to dust, and all meteorites, planets, and other things vanished into nothingness.

"what?"

Suddenly, the King of Tianshuang noticed that the huge secret pattern that appeared in mid-air behind him was unusual.

In the eyes of the Heavenly Frost King, this enormous secret pattern was composed of eighty-eight smaller secret patterns, intricately connected by countless threads.

Of these eighty-eight minor secret patterns, excluding twenty-four that are duplicates, there are a total of sixty-four different minor secret patterns.

Of these sixty-four different minor runes, he could tell at a glance that eight of them were related to the Water Beast God, while the remaining fifty-six were related to other Beast Gods.

'Could this be the ultimate mystery of the Beast God's Way?'

With his mind wandering, the King of Tianshuang thought to himself as he took out the Bodhi seed given to him by Lu Jin, and his consciousness involuntarily became immersed in it.

However, the Heavenly Frost King's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly stopped casting his strongest innate secret technique, 'Cosmic Torrent'.

'Is this also a secret technique used by humans?'

Feeling that 20% of his divine body had been lost in less than twenty seconds, the Heavenly Frost King fell into deep doubt.

It's outrageous!
In terms of grade, the strongest talent secret technique is equivalent to the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe. He has seen secret techniques of this level before, after all, his father, the Lord of Ice Peak, also knows them.

But I've never seen his father, with his tiny divine body, suffer such a huge drain when using his strongest secret technique!

Don't be fooled by the fact that his father's divine power is nearly a hundred times more refined than his own; his divine body is over 90,000 kilometers tall, which is incomparable to a mere divine body of a few thousand kilometers.

In terms of sheer divine power, even considering the perfect genetic top-tier overlord divine body, there is still a gap between it and the divine body of the universe master with nearly ten thousand times the genetic power.

His 20% divine body is equivalent to two thousand times the divine body of his father, the Lord of Ice Peak!
The secret technique, which lasted for less than twenty seconds, drained his father's two thousand lives.
With such a huge expense, who can afford it?

"Shh!"

Teleporting back to the Heavenly Frost Temple, the Heavenly Frost King put away the Bodhi Seed, and a flash of blue light appeared in his hand, revealing a common water-type primordial treasure. He silently began to recover his divine power.

It's no wonder that the Heavenly Frost King was questioning his life. You have to understand, the strongest offensive talent technique is something only players who use cheats are qualified to use.

Without a super-large divine body clone as a reserve of divine power, one simply cannot use the strongest talent secret technique, unless it is a support-type strongest talent secret technique like Zi Ni Chang and Hong Er.

Whether it's the Heavenly Frost King's 'Cosmic Torrent,' Lu Jin's 'Chaotic Tide,' or Luo Feng's 'I Am the Universe' in the original work, they are all major consumers of divine power.

However, the former is not a cheater and does not have a reserve of superhuman power.

The latter are cheaters, possessing a vast reserve of divine power.

The Great Luo Heaven, the Lingxiao Palace.

On the nine-colored throne, Lu Jin waved his hand, and the supreme treasure of mental power, the 'Five-Colored Divine Light Pearl', along with eight high-grade primordial treasures, appeared and landed in front of Zi Ni Chang and the other seven people.

Lu Jin said, "Hong'er, you seven should hand over the Origin Treasure to the Nether Sea Avatar and expand your divine bodies as soon as possible."

“Yes!” Hong’er and the other six replied.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Jin took out twelve ordinary gold-type primordial treasures and manifested them in front of Zi Zhenfeng and the other twelve heavenly generals, saying: "Give them to your Venerable-level Star-Eating Grass for use. For each time your divine body is fully restored, contribute ten main vines."

A hundred years later, these twelve ordinary primordial treasures will be handed over to the Venerable-level Star-Eating Grass of other Heavenly Generals. After all the Heavenly Generals' Star-Eating Grasses have been used, it will start again from your Star-Eating Grasses.

If one can comprehend the ultimate secret technique, then one is not required to make any contribution.

"Yes!"

Zi Zhenfeng and the others responded.

Then, Lu Jin's thoughts shifted, and the Netherworld Blood Sea clone within the Netherworld Heavenly God Kingdom stopped expanding, with 10081 Blood God Child incarnations materializing.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

Soon, 10080 Blood God Child incarnations teleported into the Lingxiao Palace.

At the same time, Lu Jin raised his hand and summoned a memory jade slip from the Heavenly Court Inheritance Tower behind the Lingxiao Palace. The jade slip traveled through space and appeared in his hand.

Lu Jin separated a wisp of his consciousness and sank it into the jade slip, where he saw eight profound and mysterious patterns.

These eight secret patterns are eight different mysterious patterns of water beasts.

The Heavenly Court Inheritance Tower is a complete system of inheritance, encompassing everything, with the Secret Pattern Flow being just one aspect of it.

It's not just the mystical runes of the water beasts; it also includes the mystical runes of the other seven beast gods.

However, Lu Jin knew the principle of not trying to do too much at once, so for the time being, he only needed to study the mysterious patterns of the water beast.

In terms of creating methods, following the secret pattern method is the most convenient.

It's not necessary to fully comprehend the eight mysterious patterns of the water beasts; it's just that comprehending them provides a solid foundation, making it easier to create new techniques.

If one is incredibly lucky, stumbling upon something by sheer chance, a complete novice could theoretically create the ultimate secret technique of the universe's master.

Given that the strongest innate secret technique, Chaos Tide, consumes a huge amount of resources and can only be used as a trump card, the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe is extremely important, and he must have it.

At this moment, with the blessing of the Bodhi tree, 9000 Blood God Child incarnations comprehended the Law of Water and Space Fusion, while 80 Blood God Child incarnations and the Time Dragon clone comprehended the Law of Time.

The laws of time also need to be comprehended, after all, only the final integration of time is needed to master spacetime and become the master of the universe.

Although the difficulty of this final step is no less than that of crossing from the fourth level of the Beast God Path to the seventh level and comprehending the Beast God Heart, it is not impossible that he can pass through the Time-Space Path first.

The main body and the water unicorn clone comprehended the eight mysterious patterns of water beasts.

As for the Netherworld Blood Sea clone and the remaining 1001 Blood God Child incarnations
"Innate Secret Technique: Chaotic Tide!"

A Blood God Child avatar stood above the Netherworld Blood Sea, activating the most powerful innate secret technique.

"Rumble--"

In an instant, the vast divine power surged and emanated, accompanied by the appearance of a huge secret pattern that blotted out the sky. The surrounding space and time were sealed off, and a gray tide that swept across the entire world surged forth, raging over the Netherworld Blood Sea and then rapidly spreading to the land of the divine kingdom.

However, this gray tide that swept across the entire world seemed like an illusion and did not cause any damage to the divine kingdom.

The strongest innate secret technique: Chaotic Tide, has two attack modes.

One is a physical attack, and the other is a soul attack.

Lu Jin has now chosen to use a soul attack after his divine power has been etherealized. This attack only harms the soul and will not cause any damage to the divine realm.

After all, there are no other living beings in his divine kingdom for the time being.

A phantom gray tide swept across the entire world, and Lu Jin focused his attention on the enormous secret pattern that appeared after activating the strongest secret technique: Chaotic Tide.

'93 minor rune diagrams, one more than Luo Feng's "I am the Universe" in the original novel. Which is stronger?'

Lu Jin thought to himself.

As the giant secret pattern appeared, the 1000 Blood God Child incarnations in the Lingxiao Palace began to compare the giant secret pattern with the eight water beast mystery patterns. With the enlightenment of the Bodhi Tree, they began to continuously combine the water beast mystery patterns.

Time passed second by second. Ninety seconds later, the aura of the Blood God Child's avatar above the Netherworld Blood Sea remained unchanged, and the illusory gray tide that swept across the heavens and earth continued to rage, showing no signs of exhausting its divine power.

Logically speaking, at this moment, the Blood God's body should be in a state of complete exhaustion of divine power.

But who can blame them when there's a massive reserve of divine power below—the Netherworld Blood Sea clone?
Moreover, at this moment, the Netherworld Blood Sea clone was not only comprehending the laws of time, but also using a high-level spatial treasure to restore its divine power.

The superior primordial treasure increases the speed of divine power recovery by ten thousand times. Considering that every ninety seconds, the entire divine power of an ordinary blood god's avatar is lost.

As long as the total divine power of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone does not decrease, Lu Jin can maintain the existence of the giant secret pattern for about half a day each day.

Time passed, and thirty years later in the primordial universe.

The Ancestral God Cult, a place of inheritance.

Within the black mist that filled the void, the consciousness of the Water Qilin avatar was within an illusion, receiving the divine inheritance of the Water Void Beast.

Suddenly, before the wondrous illusionary power of the inheritance site could dissipate, Lu Jin automatically withdrew from the inheritance illusion.

At the same time, a powerful voice resounded directly in Lu Jin's mind: "Congratulations, new seventh-level inheritor!"

Unlike in the past, after the Water-Air Integration Law reached a new level this time, Lu Jin was unable to inherit it again.

Although the seventh level of the Beast God's Path is still countless levels away from the end of the Fusion Law, it is the end of the eight Fusion Laws of the Ancestral God Sect's inheritance ground.

"With the Water-Air Fusion Law reaching its seventh level, coupled with the overlord-level ultimate secret technique I created a few years ago, even without the Chaos Tide, I am already a cosmic master in terms of combat power."

Even in a contest of divine physique, a second-tier universe lord couldn't defeat me.

Lu Jin thought to himself.

It must be admitted that the Bodhi tree's blessing of enlightenment is very powerful.

Thirty years in the primordial universe, thirty thousand years in the Lingxiao Palace with its thousand-fold acceleration, nine thousand Blood God Child incarnations devoted themselves to comprehension, and every year in the primordial universe, the Water Qilin avatar would come to the inheritance site to receive the inheritance.

His understanding of the law of water and space fusion entered the seventh level during this process of receiving the inheritance.

It's a pity that, perhaps because of the short time available, he was unable to comprehend the elusive Heart of the Beast God.

Just like many of the seventh-level inheritors of the Ancestral God Sect, they were all stuck at the last step of transforming into a beast god.

The next moment, a gentle repulsive force formed within the black mist, pushing Lu Jin's figure away.
