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

Chapter 84 Transformation of Mindset, High-Level Cosmic Venerable

"And now—" A glint flashed in Ye Feng's eyes, and an invisible sharpness naturally rose up. "Now—the number of alien races at the level of thirteen divine generals who have fallen under my sword is already countless.

Looking down at that level is commonplace.

"I can fight a king like the Sky Domain King head-on without being at a disadvantage. I can already stand on equal footing with King Longyu and Senior Brother Qike, discussing and exchanging ideas."

A sudden realization, like a clear spring, washed away the confusion and distractions in my heart: "There's no need to be impatient, and even less need to deny yourself."

"I just need to take one step at a time, firmly walking along my path."

"My strength will naturally rise with my every step. One peak after another that I once looked up to will eventually be trampled under my feet."

"Treasures, resources, strength—all of these things are only truly meaningful and real when they are acquired through hard work and personal struggle. The sense of accomplishment and joy from these achievements are the most exhilarating."

Ye Feng's eyes grew brighter and brighter, like two burning stars.

My conviction has never been so firm: "I am single-minded in my pursuit of martial arts and the Dao. Where my heart leads, I am fearless."

"The hardships of cultivation? They are the whetstones that sharpen my edge."

"The crises I faced? They were the crucible that unleashed my potential."

"A sudden accident? It was a gift from fate, a test to temper my character."

"All of this is the most wonderful spice in my life's journey." I gladly accept it, and I—enjoy it.

boom-.

The mind seemed to have been broken by some invisible shackles.

Ye Feng's character underwent a transformation at this moment.

His mind became broader and deeper, like a newborn world, taking a solid step towards a realm that embraces the universe and all things.

The heart is infinitely vast, thus boundless and empty. It can accommodate all changes, withstand immense pressure, remain forever steadfast, and endure forever.

Hong's summary of the three realms of self-cultivation—enlightenment, childlike innocence, and embracing the universe—is not about any absolute superiority or inferiority; they are simply three paths leading to the pinnacle.

Luo Feng pursues the path of "enlightenment" that leads directly to one's true nature, while Lei Shen seeks the "childlike heart" that embodies harmony between humanity and nature. Ye Feng and Hong, on the other hand, have chosen the path of "embracing the universe" that encompasses everything and carries all things.

"Hoo—" Ye Feng exhaled a long, incredibly comfortable breath, as if expelling all the accumulated dust from his chest. A wistful smile appeared on his face. "I never imagined that the thoughts sparked by 'casually saving some weaklings' yesterday would become the catalyst for a transformation in my soul."

With a slight thought, a simple panel appeared: [Ye Feng]

Life Level: Fifth-Order World Lord; Willpower Strength: High-Level Universe Venerable; Genetic Multiplier: 1801 times; Fundamental Law:

The Origin of Fire (Understanding its Essence: 107/108)

The Origin of Gold (Understanding its Essence: 39/108)

The Origin of Space (Essential Understanding: 93/108)

Equipment slots:

The corpse of a World Lord-level Spacetime Monster (Analyzing the laws of spacetime to accelerate comprehension)

Permanent Remaining: 61 years and 8 months, 15 Blood Crystals (Willpower training/increased fusion level can accelerate solidification).

Permanent Remaining: 49.8885 Epochs, 600 Blood Crystals (Willpower Tempering/Increased Fusion Level can accelerate solidification).

Permanent Remaining: 34,998,887th Era, 6,000,000 Blood Crystals (Willpower Training/Increased Fusion Level can accelerate solidification).

Permanent Remaining: 34,998,886 epochs. "His mind and nature have undergone a transformation, and his will has broken through to the level of a high-level cosmic venerable." Ye Feng felt a surge of joy.

This was definitely a pleasant surprise.

"My willpower has increased significantly, and my life gene level has also increased by 1801 times. It's been a while since I've tried to fuse with Blood Crystal, so this is a good time to test my current limits."

Willpower is the key to fusing with Blood Crystal.

The stronger one's will, the more Blood Crystals one can fuse, and the more Blood Crystals in the equipment slots will be solidified.

Ye Feng returned to his island manor's quiet room. With a slight movement of the world's power, 10 Blood Crystals flew out from the spatial ring on his right index finger and hovered in front of him.

"Let's begin."

Ye Feng sliced ​​his palm open with his fingers, palm facing outwards, and grasped a breathtakingly beautiful Blood Crystal.

Ye Feng could easily endure the excruciating pain of fusing with the eleventh Blood Crystal.

I sat on the futon in the quiet room, and after a while, everything returned to calm.

"very good."

"The eleventh one was a success."

"continue."

Another Blood Crystal merged into the wound on his palm, easily resisting the invasion of malevolent energy. Then, the power of Blood Crystal began to merge into Ye Feng's body, unlike the obvious enhancement he experienced on the Blood Crystal Continent.

The Bloodlust power integrated into the body has provided almost no improvement to the body that has now undergone two transformations by the essence of the Beast God.

This was within Ye Feng's expectations, and it was also the reason why he hadn't been in a hurry to fuse with the Blood Crystal during this period.

The effects of the Beast God's essence blood transformation are far superior to those of fusing multiple Blood Luo Crystals.

The twelfth, thirteenth, twentieth, and thirtieth beads gradually revealed the transformative effects of the Blood Luo Power.

The fiftieth one was successfully fused after a difficult process.

"The power of Bloodlust".

A different light suddenly flashed in Ye Feng's eyes.

Boom! A faint golden hue appeared on his skin, and his eyes also held a hint of gold. At the same time, his body became slightly thinner, as if he were made of refined steel, making him even more refined.

At this moment, Ye Feng was less like a human and more like a peerless ferocious beast exuding true dominance.

"By fusing 50 Blood Crystals and driving the power of Blood Crystals, my physical strength has increased by 10%."

"Once I receive the nutrient solution again, I will transform my inner world to its extreme and reach the peak of the Realm Lord. I will then possess approximately 2000 times the power of a peak Realm Lord."

When Ye Feng reaches the peak of the Realm Lord level, he will possess 1801 times the power of a peak Realm Lord. By driving the power of Blood Luo, he will increase it by another 10%, reaching 1980 times the power of a peak Realm Lord, which is close to 2000 times the power of a peak Realm Lord.

What pleased Ye Feng even more was the solidification time of the three Blood Crystals in his equipment slot.

After breaking through to the High-Level Universe Venerable realm and fusing 50 Blood Crystals, the effect of the tempering acceleration increased dramatically from over a thousand times to 3000 times.

In the equipment slot, the second equipment slot containing 15 Blood Crystals requires nearly 50 epochs to solidify. With a 3000x speedup, solidification can be completed in 150 epochs.

Although it was still a long time, it gave Ye Feng hope of taking off.

"If my will were to advance two more steps and reach the level of a master of the universe, I could empty my equipment slots in just a few epochs."

Ye Feng's eyes flickered slightly.

Now, his willpower far exceeds his own strength. Improving it through tempering his will is too slow. He can only hope that this transformation of his mindset will enhance his willpower.

Once the task of acquiring the two Chaos Monuments is completed, and the Chaos Monuments are equipped, it will be much easier to quickly break through to the levels of Universe Venerable, Universe Overlord, and even Universe Lord, thereby honing and improving one's will.

"It's time to get rid of these treasures, exchange them for resources, and give us a major boost."

Ye Feng slowly gathered his thoughts and said in a low voice, "I've had enough of hiding from being crowned a king!"
