Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 273: When weak, supernatural powers are not weak; when strong, supernatural powers are even stronger.

'If I had known this would happen, I should have brought more Divine Source Liquid with me when I went to the extraterritorial battlefield!'

Looking at the resurrection bill that amounted to hundreds of billions, the Golden Sword King thought with frustration.

The cost of restoring a divine body through Divine Source Liquid is vastly different from the resurrection fee charged by the Immortal Transformation Palace.

However, for him, even if the resurrection fee of the Immortal Transformation Palace was as high as hundreds of billions of Chaos Units, it was still much cheaper than the resurrection fee offered by the Lord of the Universe.

As the ruler of the universe, he can't afford to be lacking in pomp and circumstance.

It can be said that the resurrection fee mechanism of the Heavenly Court's Immortal Transformation Hall is very advantageous to powerful immortals and above who have strong strength and small divine bodies.

At this moment, the fairy asked, "King Golden Sword, would you like to pay directly or as payment in lieu of payment?"

"Payment against work"

Jin Jianwang, who was familiar with this matter, spoke directly.

The so-called "debt repayment" naturally refers to working to pay off debts.

The fairy maiden said in a businesslike manner, "According to your divine body level, Golden Sword King, you can go to the top-level divine source tower to make payment for your labor."

The top-tier Divine Source Tower can increase the speed of divine power recovery by a hundredfold, and the divine source liquid benefit belonging to you is equivalent to one-tenth of the amount of divine body recovery.

Once your accumulated earnings from Divine Essence Liquid reach 3724 million liters, you will be able to pay off your debts and restore your original form.

But you must not leave the Nine Heavens until you have paid off your debts.

Of course, you can continue to earn Mixed Units in this way after you have paid off your debts.

The portion of the divine essence that belongs to you, though it cannot be retrieved, can be sold to the Spirit Treasure Hall.

Lingbao Hall will purchase the goods at a price of 10,000 Hunyuan units per liter and will deposit the payment into either of your two major bank accounts.

Nodding, King Jin Jian, burdened with enormous debts, walked out of the Hall of Immortal Transformation.

Upon exiting the Hall of Immortal Transformation, the Golden Sword King gazed into the distance and saw towering pagodas everywhere, radiating the oppressive aura of supreme treasures.

These towers are the Divine Source Towers of the Heavenly Court.

Currently, the Heavenly Court has three types of Divine Source Towers: Ordinary Divine Source Tower, Advanced Divine Source Tower, and Top-Tier Divine Source Tower, which are classified in the same way as Ordinary Treasures, Advanced Treasures, and Top-Tier Treasures.

All three models of the Divine Source Tower can accommodate 10081 immortals or higher-level powerhouses.

The Divine Source Tower has a threshold for the size of the divine body, but this threshold has little to do with human powerhouses whose divine bodies are generally less than ten meters tall.

According to information released by the Heavenly Court's Hall of Immortal Transformation, the threshold for the first domain of an ordinary Divine Source Tower is a ten-meter divine body.

The threshold for the first domain of a high-level Divine Source Tower is a divine body that is 1,000 meters long, while the threshold for the first domain of a top-level Divine Source Tower is a divine body that is 10 kilometers long.

Furthermore, every time the height of the divine body increases tenfold, a new domain threshold will appear again.

Exceeding the threshold, the output of Divine Source Liquid from the Divine Source Tower exhibits a significant decreasing effect.

Even if the threshold is exceeded, the output of divine source liquid for immortals with large divine bodies will be much higher than that for immortals with small divine bodies, just not as much as the difference in self-recovery.

The ordinary Divine Source Tower increases the efficiency of divine power recovery by 10 times. Those who complete the work can obtain five-tenths of the divine source liquid produced by the Divine Source Tower. The entry threshold is any immortal god.

The Advanced Divine Source Tower increases the efficiency of divine power recovery by 100 times. Those who contribute can receive 30% of the contribution. The entry threshold is becoming a Marquis and achieving immortality.

The top-tier Divine Source Tower increases the efficiency of divine power recovery by 1000 times. Those who participate in the project will receive one-tenth of the reward. The entry threshold is becoming a King-level Immortal.

As for the Universal Venerable and the Lord of the Universe?

A single Divine Source Tower can accommodate 10081 powerful individuals.

Looking at the entire human race, how many cosmic venerables and cosmic masters are there?

It can be said that the workers inside the Divine Source Tower are mainly immortal gods.

'Thankfully, it can be paid off in lieu of wages; otherwise, this resurrection fee would have to be repaid over countless years.'

The Golden Sword King thought to himself.

This resurrection means he owes the Heavenly Court's Immortal Transformation Hall 3724 million liters of divine source liquid, which in terms of total energy is equivalent to ten thousand times his peak divine body at the height of his Kinghood.

However, the top-tier Divine Source Tower can increase the efficiency of divine power recovery by 1000 times. Even if only one-tenth of the produced divine source liquid belongs to him, it is still equivalent to having a hundred times the divine body recovery speed.

In other words, he only needs to restore his divine power to its full potential one hundred times without any recovery bonuses to completely pay off his debts.

If he were to recover his divine power when his divine body was almost depleted, the time it would take him to pay off his debts would be extremely long.

But after his resurrection in the Hall of Immortal Transformation, his divine body was in its prime.

The amount of divine power restored at its peak is converted into divine source liquid through the Divine Source Tower, and the actual efficiency is not low.

After mentally calculating, the Golden Sword King estimated that if he didn't rest for a moment, it would only take a million years to pay off this debt.

'A mere hundred epochs?'

King Jinjian was greatly alarmed.

Without risking my life in fighting and killing, I can pay off a debt of hundreds of billions of Chaos Units just by working for hundreds of epochs.

Am I really that good at making money?
What Jin Jianwang didn't realize was that through the top-tier Divine Source Tower, his earning ability had increased dramatically compared to the past.

But the divine source liquid sold by the Heavenly Court, the treasures that enhance life genes, and all sorts of valuable items—all the major expenses—are waiting for him in the future!

Moreover, although the working class earns more, the Heavenly Court earns even more.

For example, when resurrecting the Golden Sword King, apart from the factors of the Immortal Transformation Pool and the top-level Divine Source Tower, the Heavenly Court only paid the cost of 3724 liters of Divine Source Liquid.

However, when the Golden Sword King pays off his debts in the future, the total revenue he generates for the Heavenly Court will reach as high as 37240 million liters of Divine Source Liquid.

Based on a price of 10,000 Mixed Yuan Units per liter of Divine Source Liquid, 3724 million liters of Divine Source Liquid would amount to 3.724 trillion Mixed Yuan Units, equivalent to 3724 Heavy Treasure Points.

This is enough to buy a common, ordinary, supreme-grade weapon!

Besides, having paid off the resurrection fee so quickly and experienced immortality once, shouldn't I be going to go all out in the future?

If one goes too far and loses their precious treasures, they will enter the next round of paying off their debts and then continue to earn money to buy more treasures.

Throughout the entire process, both the Heavenly Court and the working class made a fortune.

So the question is, who lost out?

The fundamental will of the universe: "."

There are always freeloaders, but since the Heavenly Court appeared, there have been more and more of them, and their appetites have grown bigger and bigger.

Inside the Hall of Ascension in the Great Luo Heaven.

Numerous Blood God Child incarnations sat cross-legged on the ground, constantly experimenting with combinations of various beast-themed mystical patterns to create secret techniques.

But besides the numerous Blood God Child incarnations who created the Dharma, there are also thousands of Blood God Child incarnations who are silently referring to the "Miro Supreme Diagram" hanging above the Bodhi Tree, using their supernatural powers to manipulate creation and transform their own divine bodies.

"Pfft~" Suddenly, a soft sound appeared, and the divine body of a Blood God Child collapsed, turning into a large amount of divine power and dissipating.

"Pfft~" "Pfft~" "Pfft~"

This is not an isolated case of divine body collapse; several incarnations of blood gods have experienced divine body collapse due to genetic disorders.

At the same time, Blood God Child avatars, which had just been condensed by the Netherworld Blood Sea clone, also teleported over and continued to use their divine powers to transform their divine bodies.

As the supernatural powers were activated and the transformation proceeded, the life gene levels of these newly arrived Blood God Child incarnations in the Immortal Ascension Palace began to surge.

Before long, many of the Blood God Child incarnations, who were originally at an ordinary level of life gene, reached 10080 times the life gene level.

Ignoring the 'hunger' emanating from every cell of the divine body, Lu Jin's numerous blood god incarnations continued to modify the divine body by referring to the 10081st Dao body diagram in the "Miro Supreme Diagram".

In recent years, in addition to creating his own teachings, Lu Jin has also begun to devote some of his energy to studying the "Mila Supreme Diagram" and improving his life genes.

The existing perfect genes are obtained through the amplification of peaches of immortality or ginseng fruit, plus the power of 'Blood Luo', and do not mean that he will have them on his own.

Therefore, after tens of millions of years of research in the Hall of Ascension, Lu Jin's expertise in life genes has only increased from zero to 10080 times the genetic level, and he has been stuck at a bottleneck for many years.

However, don't underestimate the role that this 10080-fold level of life gene achievement can play.

With this mastery of life, coupled with the supernatural power of manipulating creation, he can transform any ordinary life form at any genetic level into a life form with 10080 times the genetic power simply by consuming divine power.

With such abilities, not to mention the impact on the many powerful beings in the Heavenly Court whose genes were not yet perfect, his own strength has already undergone a quantitative change.

Before studying the "Miro Supreme Diagram", the Netherworld Blood Sea clone was able to condense 10081 Blood God Child incarnations.

However, these Blood God Child incarnations, due to their life genes being only at an ordinary level, possessed divine power more than ten thousand times weaker than the original body and the two avatars, and their individual strength was not strong.

Only by merging all the Blood God Child incarnations into one, transforming into the strongest Blood God Child incarnation with 10081 times the life gene, can its strength be comparable to the original and the two clones.

But times have changed, and a large number of Blood God Child incarnations have risen to power.

The numerous blood god incarnations that were condensed had ordinary initial life genes.

However, through his own mastery of life genes and his supernatural ability to manipulate creation, Lu Jin was fully capable of transforming all 10081 Blood God Child incarnations into Blood God Child incarnations with 10080 times the life genes.

In this way, aside from the factors related to the supreme treasure and the inability to use the secret techniques of the controller type, each of the 10081 Blood God Child incarnations differentiated from the Netherworld Blood Sea clone is only slightly weaker than the main body and the two clones.

It's a pity that even if all 10081 Blood God Children possess 10080 times the life gene, once they merge into one, they can only become the strongest Blood God Child incarnation with 10081 times the gene, and cannot pile up the life gene to the sky.

Moreover, after the Blood God Child incarnation, which had undergone divine body modification, dissipated, the Blood God Child incarnation newly condensed by the Netherworld Blood Sea clone needed to undergo divine body modification again.

To be honest, when I first started studying the "Miro Supreme Diagram," I began to understand the basics of life gene modification.

Lu Jin was shocked to discover that through his divine power of manipulating creation and his own mastery of life genes, he could not only genetically modify the Blood God Child's incarnation, but also genetically modify other life forms.

He knew exactly what this meant.

The key to gene modification is not the 10081 times perfect gene, but the 100,000 times life gene that even the supreme rules would descend upon!
If nothing unexpected happens, this means that if he can fully comprehend the "Miro Supreme Diagram" in the future, he can have 100,000 times the life gene available everywhere, if he so desires.

'Truly worthy of such great supernatural power!'

Lu Jin thought to himself.

It can only be said that when one is weak, one's supernatural powers are not weak, and when one is strong, one's supernatural powers are even stronger.
Suddenly, a Blood God Child incarnation who was transforming his divine body exuded an inexplicable sense of perfection.

‘It’s done! ’

Lu Jin was overjoyed.

Overjoyed, all the Blood God Child incarnations in the Hall of Ascension activated their supernatural powers: manipulating creation to transform their divine bodies and quickly achieve perfect genes.

Immediately afterwards, the more than nine thousand Blood God Child incarnations who were originally creating the Law went to the Netherworld Heavenly God Kingdom to replenish their divine power from the Netherworld Blood Sea clone.

As for the remaining 1000 Blood God Child incarnations, they continued to comprehend the "Miro Supreme Diagram".

Comprehending the "Miro Supreme Diagram" and undergoing divine body transformation is crucial; even the slightest mistake can lead to the collapse and dissipation of the divine body due to genetic disorder.

Although the Netherworld Blood Sea clones possessed abundant divine power, Lu Jin had no habit of wasting it carelessly, so he decided to let these 1000 Blood God Child avatars 'go hungry'.

In any case, whether the divine body is in a state of full divine power or not will not affect the modification of the divine body.

Subsequently, Lu Jin separated a wisp of his consciousness to log into the virtual universe and sent a message to the Temple of Life.

The Netherworld, the Kingdom of Gods.

"Whoosh!"

A handsome figure with blue hair and blue armor flew through the air and landed on the edge of the vast sea of ​​blood.

"Meet the Emperor of Heaven."

The Lord of the Temple of Life, the Lord of Azure Sky, bowed respectfully to the Sea of ​​Blood.

"Just leave the monster behind."

Lu Jin's voice echoed like a vast ocean of blood.

"Yes, Heavenly Emperor."

After bowing once more and leaving behind a world ring, the Azure Lord departed into the sky.

A wisp of divine power shot out and entered the World Ring, where Lu Jin moved the thousand immortal demonic beasts contained within to the Blood Coast.

Ignoring the fear in the eyes of the immortal demon beasts, Lu Jin unleashed his divine power and manipulated the divine power of creation, beginning to modify the genes of the demon beasts.

As the transformation progressed, the thousand immortal demon beasts gradually exuded a sense of perfection, achieving 10081 times the perfect genes.

"boom--"

The next second, an extremely terrifying soul attack erupted, engulfing the thousand immortal demonic beasts.

How could a mere immortal, lacking any heaven-defying soul treasures, withstand a soul attack from the Lord of the Universe?
In an instant, the thousand immortal demonic beasts that had just achieved perfect genes and had not yet had time to absorb energy to expand their divine bodies to more than 90,000 kilometers were instantly annihilated.

Subsequently, Lu Jin stuffed the thousand immortal divine corpses into the Demon Refining Pot.

Before long, the Demon Refining Pot contained a large number of Immortal-grade Life Source Crystals, a thousand Lower-level Law Godheads of various elements, numerous Higher-level Law Beads, and a thousand pure golden Perfect Gene Bloodline Source Crystals.

'good! ’

Looking at the thousands of perfect gene bloodline source crystals, Lu Jin was secretly satisfied.

They directly modified the genes of the Heavenly Court members to achieve perfect genes.

In contrast, the process involves first modifying the genes of demonic beasts, then killing them to obtain Bloodline Source Crystals through the Demon Refining Pot, and finally bestowing the perfect gene Bloodline Source Crystals upon members of the Heavenly Court.

In comparison, the latter is undoubtedly more appropriate.

After all, when modifying genes through manipulation and creation, one needs to have a thorough understanding of the target's entire physical condition before making genetic modifications.

If the target is humans, it inevitably feels a bit awkward or inappropriate.
