Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 259 God-Slaying Spear, God-Slaying Mystic Runes
It can be said that he, a sixth-order top-tier universe master, is far superior to a fifth-order top-tier universe master who possesses supreme treasures.

Furthermore, after becoming a master of the universe, he was able to activate the third layer of secret runes in the World Destroying Armor transformed from the supreme treasure 'World Destroying Lotus'.

Once the third layer of the World Destroyer Armor is activated, it can become immune to material attacks from beings below the fifth-order Universe Lord level, and can be weakened to one ten-thousandth of those at the fifth order or above.

In other words, throughout the entire primordial universe, apart from a dozen or so true gods and a relatively limited number of fifth-order universe lords, there were...

Even disregarding the factor of combined attacks, if all the powerful beings in the universe were to besiege him, they would not be able to cause the slightest damage to his divine body.

Moreover, thanks to the spatial teleportation effect of the Kunlun Mirror, he is not only unafraid of sealed treasures, but also ensures that the divine power of the Netherworld Blood Sea remains intact, and that his main body and two avatars do not die.

His soul-based attacks are countered by the supreme treasure, the 'Purifying Lotus,' and currently, no true god in the cosmic sea poses a soul-level threat to him.

As for the material attack that obliterates the divine body, as long as one carries a Kunlun Token, the Netherworld Blood Sea clone can continuously send the strongest Blood God Child incarnation into the World Ring to act as a blood pack to replenish the divine power consumed.

Unless the opponent can kill him instantly, it will take exhausting the immense divine power reserves of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone to kill his main body and two clones.

But right now there is a Netherworld Blood Sea clone with a diameter of over 300 billion kilometers. The main body and the two clones both have the supreme treasure armor, the World Destroyer Armor, which weakens material attacks to one ten-thousandth after activating the third layer of secret runes. So tell me, which warrior has such great ability?
Given the sheer size of the Netherworld Blood Sea clone, its divine power recovery speed is already incredibly impressive.

In addition, a few years ago in the secret chamber of the blue token space of the spaceship, I acquired the top-level primordial treasure with the fusion attribute of 'water and air', which can increase the divine power recovery efficiency by 100,000 times. The divine power recovered in one second is enough for the opponent to keep attacking for a very long time.

'Whoosh whoosh whoosh—'

With a thought, Lu Jin activated his innate secret technique 'Blood God Child'. As divine power surged, 10081 Blood God Child incarnations reappeared.

Compared to before, the Blood God Child avatar that has been formed this time is at the level of a universe master.

A Blood God Child was teleported to the spaceship to continue his treasure hunt.

A Blood God Child incarnated as a trainee and went to the Xuan Sha Heaven Will Training Ground, where he squatted in the Ten Thousand Times Time Palace to hone his will.

The 10077 Blood God Child incarnations, along with the Water Qilin clone and the Time Dragon clone, headed to the Great Luo Heaven Immortal Palace to continue their cultivation.

Comparing the threads of primordial laws manifested in the Great Luo Heavenly Dome, the Water Qilin clone continued to comprehend the eight mysterious patterns of water beasts, while the Time Dragon clone turned to comprehend the eight mysterious patterns of light beasts.

Among these 10077 Blood God Child incarnations, 8000 Blood God Child incarnations comprehend the mystical patterns of the Eight Great Beasts, with 1,000 incarnations assigned to each type of beast's mystical pattern, and creating their own fusion techniques while comprehending them.

Another 1077 people continued to study the supernatural power: three heads and six arms, and 1000 people began to study the supernatural power: the law of heaven and earth.

Having entered the realm of the universe, I have reached the minimum requirement for cultivating the supernatural power of Three Heads and Six Arms, the second level. If I can master it, my strength will increase by another level, so naturally I must practice it.

Supernatural Powers: With each level of cultivation of the Law of Heaven and Earth, the divine body can increase in height or length tenfold, and the divine power reserves can increase a thousandfold. However, cultivation is also required.

Although the Law of Heaven and Earth cannot break through the limits of a cultivator's divine body, it is not a concern for the main body and the two avatars.

Because this limit is as high as 12 light-years, even if the main body and the two avatars have mastered the third level of the Law of Heaven and Earth, the height and length of their divine bodies would only be more than 90 million kilometers, which is still far from the limit of 12 light-years.

As for the last two Blood God Child incarnations, one of them stayed within the Divine Realm to create a magic spell and prepare for teleportation, cooperating with the Blood God Child incarnation inside the Spaceship to search for treasure.

Another Blood God Child incarnation wields the Kunlun Mirror, cooperating with treasure hunting while maintaining the perfect rune pattern of the innate secret technique 'Chaotic Tide,' providing a standard template for the many Blood God Child incarnations who create the technique.

Given the current size of the Netherworld Blood Sea Avatar, coupled with the top-tier Origin Treasure that can increase the efficiency of divine power recovery by 100,000 times, the divine power consumed by the ordinary Blood Sea Child Avatar to maintain the 'Chaotic Tide' is just a drop in the ocean.

As for the expansion of the Blood Sea, that will happen after the Netherworld Blood Sea clone has completely completed its transformation into the God Body of the Universe Lord.

Having arranged the tasks for his three avatars and numerous Blood God Child incarnations, Lu Jin himself carefully examined the changes in the Kunlun Mirror and the Heavenly Realm after this advancement.

First, the Kunlun Mirror expanded its detection range from a diameter of hundreds of billions of kilometers to a diameter of one light-year.

The efficiency of the Thirty-Six Heavens in obtaining energy from the Origin of the Universe has been greatly improved, and the time acceleration factor in designated areas within the Great Luo Heaven has increased from a thousand times to ten thousand times.

In the celestial realms such as Xuanhuang Heaven, Youming Heaven, and Xuansha Heaven, the time acceleration factor has increased from a hundred times to a thousand times.

Furthermore, the threads of the fundamental laws manifested in the Great Luo Heavenly Dome were ten times clearer than before.

Immediately, Lu Jin notified the Immortal Ascension Palace through the virtual universe to cancel the Thousand Times Time Palace within the Xuan Sha Heaven Will Training Ground.

To maintain the operation of the Time Palace, the Heavenly Court must provide energy at its own expense.

However, each celestial realm is equipped with a designated time acceleration zone, and its energy consumption is obtained free of charge from the original source of the primordial universe.

Both have the same effect and cannot be combined. One is paid for, and the other is free, so Lu Jin naturally chose the latter.

In the future, the Heavenly Court will deal with the Beasts of the Realm. The energy we are currently getting for free can be considered as an advance payment for the original will of the primordial universe.

In addition, Lu Jin also sent a notice to Lingbao Hall.

The Enlightenment Hall, which houses the supreme and most powerful weapon, the Bloodflame Demon Thunder Halberd, will immediately increase the starting price for enlightenment tenfold. One year in the Primal Universe will require 100 Treasure Points.

After all, the time acceleration in the Enlightenment Hall has now increased ten thousand times. One year in the primordial universe is equivalent to ten thousand years in the Enlightenment Hall, so the price will naturally rise.

Of course, at present, the only one still studying the Blood Flame Demon Thunder Halberd's secret runes in the Enlightenment Hall is the divine incarnation of the giant axe.

The divine incarnations of the five major powers and numerous universe lords have long since departed.

Most people only spent a thousand years comprehending the Dharma in the Enlightenment Hall. The longest was the Lord of the Desolate Mirror, who spent 50 Treasure Points to comprehend the Dharma for five thousand years, but he still failed to create the strongest fusion secret technique to enter the fifth rank.

Then, filled with anticipation, Lu Jin's consciousness sank into the cheat space.

Mastering time and space, becoming the master of the universe—that's like having a cheat code!

With a thought, the Universe Lord-level treasure chest, which was radiating nine-colored light within the external space, transformed into a dazzling display of nine-colored brilliance, illuminating the external space in a vibrant and colorful way.

When the nine-colored light faded, the treasure chest of the universe's master level had disappeared.

Instead, there is a true god-level treasure chest and three items.

A long spear, entirely black, covered with countless mysterious blood-red patterns.

A scroll about a foot long, resembling a piece of carved jade, was not yet unfolded.

A white jade palace with cloud patterns, no bigger than the palm of your hand.

With divine power infused into the items, Lu Jin quickly learned the basic information about the three items.

The treasures produced by the cheat program are really good, unlike the supreme treasures from outside that require a master to recognize them.

—Godslayer Spear: A semi-primordial treasure, its attacks are accompanied by ferocity and have the effect of annihilating souls. Note: Due to the restrictions of the supreme rules, it is currently only a treasure of true gods.

—The Map of Mountains and Rivers: A supreme treasure of the divine king, containing three thousand sealed spaces.

Note: Due to the limitations of the original universe, this is currently only a treasure of the true gods.

——Lingxiao Palace: A divine treasure of the palace type.

Note: Due to the limitations of the original universe, this is currently only a treasure of the true gods.

'God-Slaying Gun'

With a flick of his wrist, Lu Jin produced a jet-black spear covered in countless blood-red runes, radiating an overwhelming aura of ferocity.

The moment the external storage space was retrieved, an overwhelming aura of malevolence instantly spread throughout the entire divine kingdom.

With a slight frown, Lu Jin's mind stirred, and the overwhelming murderous aura vanished, restoring the God-Slaying Spear in his hand to its former calm.

Apart from the countless mysterious patterns covering it, at first glance it looks no different from any other ordinary gun-type treasure.

The God-Slaying Spear has eight layers of runes, each with six runes, for a total of forty-eight runes.

The first level is the level of the Lord of the Universe, with six layers of secret patterns corresponding to the fourth rank, the peak of the fourth rank, the fifth rank, the peak of the fifth rank, the sixth rank, and the peak of the sixth rank.

The second level is the True God level, with six layers of secret runes corresponding to the seventh, eighth, ninth, top ninth, tenth, and top tenth levels, respectively.

The third level is the Void True God level, the fourth level is the Eternal True God level, the fifth level is the Chaos Ruler level, the sixth level is the God King level, the seventh level is the level beyond the first three steps of the God King level, and the eighth level is the semi-primordial level beyond the God King level.

However, the secret patterns inside the God-Slaying Spear were a bit strange. Although Lu Jin could only understand the first few patterns of the first layer, the rest were like reading a book written in heaven.

But as the owner of the God-Slaying Spear, he also knew that all eight layers and forty-eight secret runes belonged to the same type of secret rune—God-Slaying.

It can be said that the difference between these forty-eight layers of secret patterns is simply that each layer is more profound than the previous one, and has greater power after activation, while the effects are completely the same.

All of them are physical attacks with malevolent energy, capable of forming an additional soul attack that is even stronger than the physical attack itself.

It's quite bizarre that the spear is one of the major categories of martial arts weapons, and it seems to have nothing to do with soul attacks.

The soul attack power of the God-Slaying Spear is even greater than its physical attack power.

For example, the first level of the first secret rune has a material attack power of level four, but its soul attack power is only slightly weaker than the material attack power that the next level of secret rune can form.

"I wonder which handsome young man will be the first to experience the feeling of being stabbed with a hole by the God-Slaying Spear."

Lu Jin thought to himself with anticipation.

Putting away the God-Slaying Spear, Lu Jin took out the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

Unrolling the scroll, Lu Jin saw a magnificent landscape painting depicting mountains and rivers.

As one's consciousness sinks into it, one sees three thousand different sizes within, which can be infinitely large or infinitely small, and can be modified at will in a single thought, and even time can be accelerated.

Any space can be used to imprison powerful individuals, or it can be used as a place for the reproduction of living beings and the nurturing of rare and precious materials.

For example, if one of the spaces is set as a water-attribute space, it can nurture water-attribute natural treasures of the corresponding level, and the creatures that thrive in it can also be more in line with the laws related to water to a certain extent.

The acceleration of time within the space is linked to Lu Jin's own life level.

Currently, his life level is that of the Lord of the Universe, capable of accelerating time by 1000 times, but this cannot be combined with any other time acceleration methods.

"A mine that nurtures rare and precious materials... it must be a large mine, isn't it?"

Lu Jin thought to himself.

Thanks to the virtually no barriers to entry, the Heavenly Court has a large number of treasure refiners.

However, as the saying goes, "even a clever cook cannot cook without rice," and the source of materials for refining treasures gradually became a problem for the Tushita Palace.

It is true that the Qiankun Cauldron can refine materials, but with the development of the Heavenly Court, it is impossible for the materials needed for refining treasures in the future to be supplied entirely by the Qiankun Cauldron through refining low-level materials.

Moreover, the Qiankun Cauldron is restricted by the supreme rules to the level of a top-grade True God Treasure. With the efficiency of refining materials using the Fire of Creation, there will eventually come a day when it will be insufficient to supply the needs of the Heavenly Court.

Purchasing materials for refining treasures from outside sources has become an inevitable choice for the Heavenly Court in the future.

However, with the Map of Mountains and Rivers, a treasure that serves as both a seal and an "infinite gold mine," this problem might be alleviated or even solved.

Lu Jin entered the three thousand spaces of the Mountain and River Map and began to set the spatial attributes, nurturing various types of treasure-refining materials.

After settling everything, the true body went to the Great Luo Heaven and manifested the Lingxiao Palace, a supreme treasure of the God King, which covered the original top-grade palace treasure.

The Lingxiao Palace, this seemingly ordinary pure palace-type divine treasure, only increases his defensive ceiling among palace-type treasures.

When the power of the attack it withstands does not exceed the eleventh level, the actual effect of the God-King level Lingxiao Palace is not much different from that of the top-grade palace treasure Qianyun Huanbo Palace.

Currently, there isn't even a tenth-order True God in the Cosmic Sea. Apart from some dangerous places, the Lingxiao Palace is practically useless, as any peak palace treasure is already the ceiling of defense.

Afterwards, the true body returned to the fifth floor of the Immortal Ascension Palace, took out the God-Slaying Spear, and studied the 'God-Slaying' secret runes within it.

Unlike the World Destroyer Armor, which can directly activate the corresponding level of secret runes once the power level is reached, the 'Godslayer' secret runes within the Godslayer Spear require the user to comprehend and master them before they can be activated.

Of course, comprehending the secret patterns of a treasure is much easier than creating a secret technique of the corresponding level.

The former involves copying answers, while the latter requires you to learn it yourself.

For those who don't know how, the two are worlds apart in difficulty.

Time passed quickly, and three thousand years flew by in the Hall of Ascension. With the blessing of the Bodhi Tree's enlightenment, the original body successively mastered the four layers of the God-Slaying Mystic Runes of the first layer of the God-Slaying Spear's secret rune diagram.

Just as he was about to press on and comprehend the fifth level of the Killing Mystic Rune, the Water Qilin clone suddenly entered a strange state.

At the same time, that wondrous state spread, and the main body sharing the same consciousness as the Water Kirin clone, the Time Dragon clone, the Netherworld Blood Sea clone, and numerous Blood God Child incarnations all fell into this wondrous state.

At this moment, Lu Jin seemed to have forgotten himself, as if he had crossed countless years and returned to the early days of the primordial universe, becoming the innate water beast god who was the master of the universe from the very beginning.
