Swallowing the Stars: The cheat system only comes when I'm almost a god?

Within the Land of Inheritance, Lin Yuan's consciousness was immersed in a strange illusion brought about by the primordial will of the universe.

This presents the mysteries of the Fire-Void Fusion Law to him in its most essential form—like breaking down a complex mathematical model directly into its most basic units, and then showing step by step how to combine, how to evolve, and how to ultimately construct a complete system.

Those with exceptional talent can naturally gain more insights based on the evolution of the original cosmic will, thereby creating even stronger secret techniques.

Even those with only average talent for the Path of the Beast God can imitate a powerful secret technique by following the "reference answer".

"So that's how it is..." Lin Yuan realized.

With his enlightenment abilities fully activated, his thinking speed was elevated to an incredible level.

Every time a law-based rune appears in the Inheritance Illusion, he can instantly understand its essence; every time a fusion method is demonstrated, he can deduce other variations in his mind.

The fifth level of the Beast God inheritance corresponds to the fusion law comprehension at the level of a Universe Venerable.

If the first four levels merely inform students of the existence of the Law of Fusion, then starting from the fifth level, students are truly taught how to utilize this power and transform it into combat strength capable of establishing themselves in the universe.

In the illusion, the fusion of fire and space reaches a whole new level, with the two truly becoming one and inseparable.

Space is no longer a static backdrop, but has transformed into a flowing river of flames. Every ripple in space contains the intense laws of fire, and every fold in space burns with an inextinguishable flame.

Flames are no longer simply bursts of energy, but possess spatial properties; they can ignite instantly hundreds of light-years away and burn simultaneously in countless dimensions...

"This is the cornerstone of the ultimate secret technique..." Lin Yuan was shocked.

The Inheritance Illusion not only showcases the laws themselves, but also demonstrates how to transform these laws into practical combat techniques.

Complex patterns coalesced and collapsed in the void, each change corresponding to a different battle strategy.

Lin Yuan absorbed this knowledge with great eagerness, and combined it with the supreme combat secret technique "Fighting Word Secret" from another world in his mind, the ultimate secret technique was about to emerge.

With the help of his enlightenment ability, he not only memorized the shapes of these secret patterns, but also understood their meanings.

Why is this combination more stable? Why does that structure have stronger explosive power? How should it be adjusted in different combat situations?

Time loses its meaning in the illusion.

Finally, when the last secret rune was completed, that vast and mysterious power slowly receded.

"Buzz—"

His consciousness was as if it had been kicked out directly. Before he even opened his eyes, he knew through his senses that he had left the place of inheritance. The three Venerables beside him were looking at him with concern.

But Lin Yuan didn't have time to greet them; he was still feeling the massive flow of information in his mind.

The complete content of the fifth level of the Beast God's inheritance has been completely imprinted in his heart.

From the most basic structure of fire and space laws to the most profound fusion techniques, and then to the various ideas for transforming them into practical combat methods, everything is within your grasp.

Of course, being branded does not equate to complete assimilation.

It's like someone obtaining a peerless secret manual. Although they can memorize it word for word, truly mastering it still requires a long period of practice and understanding.

"However, with the ability to comprehend the Dao, this digestion process will be much faster." Lin Yuan estimated in his mind, "It will probably take about a hundred years for me to fully absorb the fifth level of inheritance, at which time..."

At that time, he will be able to create his own ultimate secret technique!

At the level of Cosmic Sovereigns, the power of secret techniques is divided into three levels: Peak, Ultimate, and Strongest.

The pinnacle secret technique is at the level of most universe venerables, and those who can create such a secret technique must at least have reached the level of high-level venerables.

The ultimate secret technique is the mark of a cosmic overlord. Even if a venerable being who can create an ultimate secret technique has a low genetic level and few treasures, the power of the secret technique itself is enough to make them a cosmic overlord.

The most powerful secret techniques are usually only accessible to the rulers of the universe. Each technique contains complete and profound laws, and its power is enough to shake a region of space and time.

There weren't many powerful beings in the entire primordial universe who could create the strongest secret technique before breaking through to the level of a universe master. It was only when Luo Feng appeared that this gap was filled, letting people know that it was also possible to advance to the level of a universe master through this path.

Although Lin Yuan now possesses combat power at the level of a cosmic overlord, that mainly relies on the overwhelming divine power brought about by the more than three thousand times genetic level of the Yan God Clan's avatar.

In terms of secret techniques, his latest improved Flame Strike is only a fine example among peak secret techniques, and there is still a considerable gap between it and the ultimate level.

"But once I fully digest the fifth level of inheritance, the situation will be different." A hint of anticipation flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.

The Fire and Sky Beast God Path is one of the most aggressive paths among the eight Beast God Paths.

The ultimate secret technique based on this path can even rival the offensive power of some weaker peak secret techniques of the universe lords.

At that time, the Yan God Clan clone's extremely high genetic level, massive divine body spanning tens of kilometers, and ultimate secret technique of the cosmic overlord, combined with these three factors, would allow this clone to reach the level of a top cosmic overlord even without top-tier treasures.

"It's time to go out."

Lin Yuan composed himself and his consciousness returned to reality.

On the meteorite platform.

The three, Lava Venerable, Dove Wind Venerable, and Herodo, were exchanging their insights on the Path of the Beast God.

Although the three of them followed different paths, at their level, all methods are interconnected, and their exchanges always brought new inspiration.

"Huh? He's awake." Herodo suddenly looked up.

"Chaos Venerable, how do you feel?" Lava Venerable spoke first, his compound eyes filled with curiosity.

Venerable Jiufeng also laughed and said, "The impact of the fifth level of inheritance is not small. When Herodo first received the inheritance, it took him a full 300,000 years to barely digest all the gains."

Lin Yuan nodded to the three of them, "Thank you for your concern. The inheritance is indeed profound, and it has deepened my understanding of the Fire-Void Fusion Law."

"More than profound?" Herodo's gaze was sharp as he carefully examined Lin Yuan. "Although the fluctuations of the laws on your body are not very stable, I feel that you have already faintly reached the level of the fifth major accomplishment."

"This is only your first time receiving the inheritance, and you've already absorbed it to this extent?"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Lava and Venerable Dove Wind also carefully sensed it.

As expected, the fusion between the flames surrounding Lin Yuan and the laws of space was even deeper than before he entered, not much different from that of Herodo. It should be noted that Herodo had completely mastered the fifth level of the Golden Void Beast God's inheritance.

"Chaos Venerable, your talent in the Path of the Beast God is even greater than we imagined," Lava Venerable exclaimed.

Venerable Jiufeng went even further, asking, "How much of the inheritance did you receive this time?"

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and answered truthfully: "I have imprinted the complete content into my consciousness and digested about 70 to 80 percent of it. There are still some minor details that I need to go back to seclusion to carefully comprehend."

"Seventy or eighty percent?" Venerable Jiufeng gasped.

A look of shock flashed across Herodo's eyes.

He was an experienced person, and the other two candidates for divine general also had a thorough understanding of the Beast God's inheritance.

To have even one-tenth of that vast amount of information about the laws imprinted on one's first transmission is already a sign of exceptional talent; to have thirty percent imprinted is to be considered a peerless genius; to have more than seventy percent imprinted...

Herodo's attainments in the Path of the Beast God were also quite profound, but it took him more than 30 million epochs to reach the level of Lin Yuan when he received the inheritance!

"No wonder you were able to defeat a Venerable despite being a King," Herodo sighed. "I've cultivated for billions of years and have only seen such comprehension in a very few beings."

He was completely convinced, realizing that the top geniuses of the human race were indeed not someone he could fool.

The Lava Venerable was more concerned with another question: "What about the secret techniques? The fifth level of inheritance should contain many ideas on transforming the laws of fusion into practical secret techniques. Have you gained anything from that?"

Lin Yuan nodded: "I do have some ideas."

My original Flame Strike Secret Technique followed the path of fusing lower-level laws. Although its power was good, its upper limit had been reached.

After receiving this inheritance, I saw the possibility of integrating the Fire-Void Fusion Law into the secret technique…

He raised his right hand, and a wisp of crimson-gold flame appeared at his fingertips. The space around it was subtly distorting, a deep resonance between the flame itself and the laws of space.

"I've tentatively named it Flame Flash," Lin Yuan said softly. "It's still just a prototype, and the basic structure isn't even fully built yet. But once I've fully digested the fifth layer of inheritance, I'm confident that this secret technique can reach the level of the ultimate secret technique of a cosmic overlord."

As he spoke, a flame suddenly flickered at the tip of his finger.

Without any warning, the flames disappeared.

But the next moment, thousands of meters away in the void, a crimson-gold spear light appeared out of thin air, burning the space to ashes and unleashing a terrifying power.

"There are no spatial fluctuations, and no movement trajectory. This is the direct conversion of distant space into flames!" Venerable Jiufeng blurted out.

Herodo's eyes were solemn: "Indeed, this is already a relatively advanced stage in the fusion of laws. The Chaos Venerable is not far from fully comprehending the fifth level of the Beast God's inheritance."

As a practitioner of the Fire and Void Path, the Lava Venerable felt this most deeply: "Chaos Venerable, your secret technique has already touched the true essence of the Fire and Void Fusion Law. Once it is fully perfected, its power will probably not be inferior to my 'Blazing Cloud Secret Technique'."

These words carry immense weight.

The Blazing Cloud Secret Technique is the core of the Blazing Cloud Divine General's legacy, a peerless secret technique that can elevate one to the heavens in one step.

Although one's strength cannot be further improved after receiving the complete inheritance of a divine general, its high level as a secret technique bestowed by the original will of the universe is beyond doubt.

Although one's strength cannot be further improved after receiving the complete inheritance of a divine general, its high level as a secret technique bestowed by the original will of the universe is beyond doubt.

The fact that Lin Yuan's Flame Flash received such high praise from the Lava Venerable speaks volumes about its potential.

"You three are too kind," Lin Yuan said modestly, his flames subsiding. "Right now, we only have a direction. To truly perfect it to the ultimate level, it will require a long period of refinement."

"That's normal," Hirodo nodded. "After I received the fifth level of inheritance, it took me hundreds of thousands of epochs to fully digest the contents of the inheritance and create the Seven Kills of the Beast God based on it."

Venerable Jiufeng laughed, "It seems our human race will soon have another powerful figure in the Ancestral God Sect. Chaos, what are your plans next? Will you return to seclusion to digest the inheritance, or will you first go to the Glory World to take a look?"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yuan replied, "Let's go back to Zijing Island and go into seclusion for a while."

"The content of the inheritance is too vast. I need to sort it out and absorb it as soon as possible. I will go to the world of Glory to communicate with other inheritors after I have made some initial progress."

"A wise choice," Venerable Lava agreed. "The period immediately after receiving the inheritance is when one's understanding is clearest, and this is when seclusion is most efficient."

Herodo also said, "If you need to exchange and integrate the laws, you can come to me at any time. Although I follow the Golden Void Path, it is a branch of the Beast God Path, and many aspects are interconnected."

"Thank you, Venerable Hirodo." Lin Yuan said solemnly.

He knew that the other party was showing great goodwill, unlike the Lava Venerable and the Dove Wind Venerable who only possessed such strength through the inheritance of the Divine General.

Herodo was an old overlord who had completely mastered the fifth level of the Path of the Beast God and created the ultimate secret technique of the cosmic overlord. His experience and insights were of immeasurable value to him, a newcomer.

After exchanging words for a while, Lin Yuan took his leave.

……

In a quiet room of the mansion.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his consciousness sinking into his mind, and began to sort through the vast information of the fifth level of the Beast God inheritance.

With the aid of the Enlightenment function, those complex laws, secret patterns, and fusion techniques became clear.

He was like an engineer who had received complete architectural blueprints; all he had to do now was build the building step by step according to those blueprints.

"Let's start with the basics..."

With a thought, countless crimson-gold light spots appeared around Lin Yuan's body. These light spots danced continuously in the void, undergoing a deeper fusion with the fundamental laws of space in accordance with the methods taught in the inheritance.

This is an extremely meticulous process.

The laws of fire are violent and intense, while the laws of space are more stable. To perfectly integrate them, one needs a deep understanding of both and to find the perfect balance.

Time passed day by day.

In the quiet room, the fluctuations of the laws surrounding Lin Yuan became increasingly intense and harmonious.

The fusion of the two fundamental laws is deepening. The flames contain spatial properties and can appear in any corner; the space is also infused with the will of the flames, and every void is silently burning.
