Swallowing the Stars: Equipment Slots, Starting with a Genius Battle

The immortal in the green robe straightened his expression, and his immortal divine power surged, forming an invisible barrier alongside the immortal in black armor. Although he knew he was no match for a marquis-level immortal, the strict rules of the palace allowed no retreat!

The atmosphere instantly became tense, and a battle seemed imminent!

Right now—

A figure in white robes appeared silently in the arena, as if he were always meant to be there. The newcomer was also an elderly man, but his demeanor was dignified and immaculate, a stark contrast to Yuan Xi's weathered and disheveled appearance. Especially striking were his sharp, hawk-like eyes, which gleamed with golden light as they opened and closed. Though not deliberately released, the restrained yet palpable aura of a Marquis-level official seemed to freeze the space around them for a moment.

His gaze swept calmly over Yuan west, his voice gentle yet carrying an undeniable, law-like power:

"Junior Brother Yuanxi, that's enough. The Temple... has its own rules." His appearance was like a pillar of strength, instantly suppressing Yuanxi's violent aura.

Ye Feng keenly noticed that Elder Yuanxi's withered arm beside him was trembling slightly.

That was... a deep-seated fear, like a mouse's fear of a cat!

A gentle expression appeared on the white-robed elder's face. Seeing Yuan west frozen in place, he spoke again.

"Haiqing, shall I personally take you to your lodgings?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Xi reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly bristling with anger. He pulled Ye Feng behind him, his cloudy eyes filled with wariness as he looked at the white-robed elder.

"Xihe, don't touch my disciple!"

After saying that, he grabbed Ye Feng and transformed into a streak of light, flying out of the Immortal Temple through a window and heading straight into the vortex of malevolent energy.

Xi He watched the two leave, his gentle expression abruptly vanishing, replaced by a cold snort.

"Yuan west, are you really crazy or just pretending?"

"During the selection of elder candidates, a genius was brought back."

"However, it's all in vain. Back then, I was able to defeat you and seize the position of elder; today, I can stop your disciple from becoming an elder candidate!"

"The only troublesome thing is that my most promising candidate, 'Taiyun,' was killed. I sent out a hundred immortal gods to investigate, but they found nothing. The murderer disappeared without a trace, as if he had never come into this world..."

However, I still have several disciples under my command, and there is still some time before the selection, enough time to train them well.

……

Yuan west led Ye Feng past the cores of several vortexes of malevolent energy, and soon they arrived near a larger vortex.

However, at the very edge, the intensity of the baleful aura was already twice that of the previous giant pit and the Feather Palace.

With a wave of his hand, the old man conjured a floating mansion amidst surging malevolent energy, and led Ye Feng into a quiet room within the mansion.

"Qing'er, there's still some time before the selection of elder candidates. Focus on your cultivation here, and I'll make sure you have the best resources!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a small pile of blood crystals appeared in front of Ye Feng.

Ye Feng took a deep look at the half-mad old man and tentatively began to speak.

"Teacher, during my years of training outside, I accidentally obtained a secret technique that requires a Beast God statue and a large amount of Blood Crystals. I wonder if you could find them for me?"

The old man was taken aback.

"What did you call me? Teacher?!"

He was overjoyed, as if it were the greatest joy of the world, and nodded repeatedly.

"Haha, good, good, Qing'er, you've finally acknowledged me. It's just a beast god statue and some blood crystals, I'll get them for you right away."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and with a whoosh, a small mountain of Blood Crystals appeared in front of Ye Feng.

With a sweep of his telekinetic energy, Ye Feng's eyes widened in surprise. "So many?"

Before Ye Feng lay 7.8 Blood Crystals, radiating a scarlet light.

Swish~!

The old man vanished from his spot, leaving the floating mansion and flying towards the Temple of Immortality. Only a voice echoed from afar.

"The teacher will go and fetch the 'Beast God Statue' for you."

Ye Feng watched Yuan west's figure disappear into the murderous aura, and thought to himself,

"Yuan west is crazy, but he's really good to me."

With a slight thought, Ye Feng stored the mountain of Blood Crystals in front of him into his spatial ring.

[Equipable Item: Blood Crystal * 124581]

[Equipment Effect: By fusing with 1 drop of innate beast god's blood essence, it increases the level of life genes by 300 times!]

[Note: This equipment is available permanently after 50 epochs. Tempering your will or increasing the number of Blood Crystals fused can shorten the time required.]

Beast God's essence blood?!

"This...this..."

Ye Feng's pupils constricted, and he was utterly shocked.

10 Blood Crystals, the equipment effect is to allow the body to fuse with a drop of the essence blood of a natural beast god?

Yes, Blood Crystal was originally formed by the Immortal Temple using a secret method to extract the power of the Beast God from Blood Fiend.

It's normal for 10 Blood Crystals to give birth to a single drop of innate Beast God's essence blood.

"The essence blood of the Golden Sky Beast God..."

"The Golden Horned Beast's innate secret technique, clones..."

Ye Feng's mind started to work.

"As long as the Golden Horned Beast's inner world can accommodate it, it can nurture a special clone..."

"Could the essence blood of this 'Golden Void Beast God' be used to create... another Golden Void Beast God?!"

Ye Feng was stunned by his own sudden inspiration.

"Should we create an avatar of the Golden Void Beast God?"

Are you playing this big?

He's just a minor universe-level being, yet he's already considering nurturing a Golden Void Beast God avatar at the level of a born universe master?

Isn't that going a bit too far?

The essence blood of the Beast God, combined with the secret technique of creating a clone of the Golden Horned Beast, allows the Golden Void Beast God's clone to be activated.

Ye Feng pondered, his mind racing as he considered the feasibility of the plan.

The Golden Horned Beast's innate secret technique for creating clones is incredibly powerful and defies the heavens. As long as the clone's capacity level does not exceed several tens or hundreds of times its own, it can be created.

In the original novel, Luo Feng used this innate secret technique to create a heaven-defying Nine Nether Sea clone.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is a cosmic lord, a powerful cosmic lord who is no less than, and perhaps even surpasses, the Golden Void Beast God. He once self-destructed a clone formed from the Nether Sea, killing a demon cosmic lord and severely injuring the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf.

If Luo Feng could condense the Nine Netherworld Avatar, there's no reason why Ye Feng couldn't condense the Golden Void Beast God Avatar.

The more I thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

Ye Feng suppressed the turmoil in his blood and focused his attention on logging into the virtual universe.

叶枫

Affiliation: Virtual Universe Company

Identity: Genius of the Primal Secret Realm

Points: 1035896

……

"I have 103 million points left, hopefully that will be enough."

Ye Feng pondered, opened the Virtual Universe Treasury, and searched for "Golden Horned Beast".

A series of messages appeared on the screen—

Immortal-grade Golden Horned Beast Flesh*1 piece - 10,000 points (70% off in the Primal Realm)

One Immortal-grade Golden Horned Beast Unicorn Horn - 1 Points (10% off in the Primal Realm)

One piece of flesh and blood of a World Lord-level Golden Horned Beast - 100 points (1% off in the Primal Secret Realm)

……

Ye Feng skimmed through the information, his expression gradually darkening.

No~

There is no Golden Horned Beast core.

Without mentioning how many points were required, there were no Golden Horned Beast cores for sale in the treasure vault.

"How is that possible?"

Ye Feng was astonished. This was the treasure trove of the Virtual Universe Company, so how could there not be a single Golden Horned Beast core?
