Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 100: Hundredfold Life Gene

In addition, it may be because the creator was a genius who had comprehended both of the higher laws.

This secret technique, "Soul Suppressing Bell," can be divided into a Time-Suppressing Soul Suppressing Bell version and a Space-Suppressing Soul Suppressing Bell version, depending on the higher-level laws that the cultivator comprehends.

“Ni Chang, you take the picture.”

After a moment's thought, Lu Jin turned to Zi Nishang, who was sitting on his right, and said.

He was currently lacking a secret technique for soul defense, and as long as the price didn't exceed his current savings, he was determined to get this technique.

However, the manuals auctioned at the auction are all virtual manuals, which can only be viewed in a virtual universe.

Moreover, higher-level secret techniques all have corresponding cultivation requirements, and if the cultivator's strength is insufficient, they do not even have the qualification to read them.

The cultivation requirements for this "Soul-Suppressing Bell" secret technique are not low. One needs to cross the threshold of the superior primordial laws to master the first level. For the time being, he certainly won't be able to see the later parts of the secret technique.

Therefore, it is essential to have Zi Ni Chang make the purchase.

Otherwise, if he were to purchase it himself, he could only transmit the first layer of content to Zi Ni Chang offline.

"Ah."

Zi Ni Chang nodded and picked up the auction token to bid.

A wealthy woman's generosity is evident from the moment she makes a move.

The price on the big screen, which was originally only increasing by tens or hundreds each time, suddenly soared from just over 5000 Mixed Yuan Units to 10000 Mixed Yuan Units.

Of course, there are also plenty of people with money in their pockets at the auction.

In just a few seconds, the price of this "Soul-Suppressing Bell" secret technique was raised to 11000 Mixed Yuan Units.

An ordinary Immortal Army Lord's net worth is generally around 10,000 Mixed Yuan Units, but net worth is not the same as bank account savings.

It's obvious that the bidder is either a high-ranking official or an extremely wealthy second-generation heir.

However, Lu Jin was not worried. He and Zi Nishang had a total of over 100,000 Hunyuan units in their accounts at the two major banks, which was more than enough to buy this secret technique.

After all, for those who have achieved the title of Marquis and Immortal, ordinary-level secret techniques are not very important.

Their own understanding of the laws is sufficient to support them in creating ordinary secret techniques. Buying them is at most for reference, and the price they pay is generally not too high.

12000 Mixed Units 13000 Mixed Units
The numbers on the large screen are constantly rising.

14000 Mixed Units 14800 Mixed Units 15000 15600
Gradually, the frequency and magnitude of the number jumps on the big screen began to decrease.

After a while, when the bidding price exceeded 20000 Mixed Yuan Units, the frequency of changes slowed down, and it was estimated that there were fewer than two competitors left.

Just then, Zi Ni Chang entered the price into the auction token again.

The next second, the number on the big screen jumped to '23000 Mixed Units'.

After a few seconds, still no one raised the price. The succubus woman said, "23000 Chaos Units, any higher bids? Countdown: 10, 9, 83, 2, 1! Congratulations to guest number dsx00127, you have obtained the Soul Secret Technique: Soul-Suppressing Bell!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, the final auction of this year's auction has now concluded with 99 items already auctioned."

The succubus woman smiled broadly, her voice echoing throughout the auction hall: "Only one last item remains to be auctioned. Once this item is sold, this year's Heavenly Frost Auction will officially conclude."

I'm sure everyone is eagerly waiting. Now, I solemnly announce that the final auction item is—the 'Sword-type' F1-class spaceship!
This 'Sword-type' spaceship is made of F1-grade metal Aurora Silver Mother and can reach a maximum speed of 30 times the speed of light, making it difficult for a primary Immortal Army Lord to destroy.

The auction is now open, with a starting price of 0!

As she spoke, an image of a sword-shaped spaceship, entirely made of bright silver, appeared on the large screen beside the succubus woman.

The dimensions of the F1-class spacecraft are also marked on the side of the image: 418 meters long, 66 meters wide, and 58 meters thick.

Lu Jin remained unmoved upon seeing the image of the silver sword-shaped spaceship displayed on the large screen.

Although he lacked a vehicle, this F1-class spaceship was clearly neither here nor there. Not only was it small in size, but it was also the lowest class among the F-class ships, which did not suit his taste.

Moreover, he had already purchased two Silver Clan metal lifeforms, so there was no need to waste money on useless or worthless items.

A few minutes later.

"3, 2, 1! Congratulations to guest number dsn03069, you have obtained this F1-class Sword-type spaceship!"

All items at this year's Tian Shuang Auction have been sold out. Thank you for your support!

I, Youmei, hereby solemnly announce that this auction has officially ended!!!

After the Sky Frost Auction House closed, Lu Jin and Zi Nishang didn't stay long in the floating city where the auction hall was located. They left directly from the teleportation point, returned to the Azure Bay Community, and then exited the virtual universe.

In the desolate starry sky of the Heavenly Frost Universe Kingdom, an ancient token, only the size of a baby's palm and bronze in color, appeared out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, a stunningly beautiful woman appeared; it was Zi Nishang.

"Fatty, how far are we from here to Tianhe Star?"

After storing the Kunlun Token into her inner world, Zi Nishang asked her chubby AI assistant, "..."

“Master, according to the star map, this place is about 20 light-years away from Tianhe Star.”

If you were to travel through the dark universe aboard a C9-class spaceship at 1.2 times the speed of light, it would take approximately six days.

"That's what the chubby girl replied."

With a slight nod, Zi Ni Chang took out a C9-class spaceship from her world ring and then headed to Tianhe Star, the capital of the Tianhe Star Region.

The Azure Star Region, where Azure Star is located, is very far from the Milky Way Star Region, separated by hundreds of star regions. Even if Dark Universe Travel can save a lot of time, it is still not something that can be achieved in a short time.

However, traveling to the Tianhe Star Region does not necessarily require taking a spaceship.

After the auction, Lu Jin had Fatty find out the coordinates of Tianhe Star and Zhanlan Star in the original universe.

After calculating the distance and direction between the two, he directly used the Kunlun Mirror to send a Kunlun Token in this direction, and then teleported Zi Ni Chang over.

Although there are certain errors in both the calculated data and the actual operation process, these errors are not too large.

With just a spatial teleportation, he transported Zi Nishang, who was on Azure Star just a moment ago, to the Milky Way Star Region, only about 20 light-years away from the star region's capital, Milky Way Star.

As for the remaining six days of travel, we can simply take a spaceship to get there.

After the spaceship entered the dark universe, the chubby girl took control of the spaceship herself, and Zi Nishang put a world ring into her pocket.

Upon seeing Zi Nishang appear, Lu Jin quickly took out 180 peaches from his external storage space.

Looking at the many peaches floating in front of her, Zi Nishang was stunned: "Peaches? They seem to be a bit bigger than when I ate them last time."

"Hmm, a higher grade of peaches, you shall consume 90."

Lu Jin nodded.

"90 peaches of immortality. A hundred times the life gene?" After a moment of contemplation, Zi Nishang said in disbelief.

She was no longer a novice native to the Qiankun Realm; she could clearly recognize the power and rarity of high-multiplication life gene levels.

It is no exaggeration to say that ordinary immortal kings are not even qualified to touch such treasures that can enhance the level of life genes.

Only those who reach the pinnacle of the Kingly Realm, or even those who are invincible at the Kingly Realm, have the qualifications and resources to enhance their life genes tenfold.

As for a hundredfold increase in life genes?
Unless one is a special life form, aside from some special treasures or methods, a hundredfold gene is the highest limit that a life form whose level does not exceed that of a Universe Venerable can reach.

Since it's an upper limit, it means that not every cosmic being in the universe can increase their life genes a hundredfold.

Even the most powerful beings in the universe cannot all achieve a hundredfold increase, which shows how precious a hundredfold increase in life genes is.

"Eat~"

Lu Jin smiled and patted Zi Nishang's head.

"Ok!"

Zi Ni Chang nodded heavily.

'Click-clack—'

After a chaotic frenzy of chewing, both of them achieved a hundredfold increase in life genes.

'It's a pity that peaches of immortality don't have pits; otherwise, the pits of these mid-grade peaches would probably grow into something good.'

Smacking his lips, savoring the flavor of the peaches, Lu Jin thought to himself with a touch of regret.

However, this is quite normal in the world of Swallowed Star; none of the special life forms can reproduce normally.

Although the peach tree is somewhat unusual and quite different from other special plant life forms, whether it is a medium-grade peach tree or a low-grade peach tree, its essence is definitely superior to that of ordinary special life forms.

Such an incredible resource-rich plant would surely have been restricted in the primordial universe.

The numerous peach trees in the Peach Garden were created by external forces. The original universe, with its own rules of operation, will not destroy the existing peach trees.

But the idea of ​​propagating more peach trees is definitely out of the question.

Subsequently, Lu Jin gave Zi Ni Chang tens of thousands of Immortal-grade Life Source Crystals.

Before consuming the mid-grade peaches of immortality, Zi Nishang's divine body strength was 10 times that of a peak Marquis, which is nearly 100,000 times the strength of a peak ninth-level World Lord.

Having achieved a hundredfold increase in life genes, the strength of his divine body has increased tenfold again, reaching nearly a million times the peak power of a ninth-level World Lord.

However, energy is conserved. Just like using bloodline crystals to enhance life genes, she can achieve a hundredfold increase in life genes by consuming mid-grade peaches. The divine power gap in her divine body needs to be filled by herself.

Fortunately, Zi Ni Chang's divine body is not large, only 62.5% of a standard divine body (a two-meter humanoid divine body). The divine power gap can be filled with less than six thousand (62.5% * 9000) Immortal-grade Life Source Crystals.

It's fortunate that her divine body is small, otherwise Lu Jin really... well, he could also afford to raise her.

Inspired by the corpse of the Destroyer Beast, Lu Jin opened up a new idea. After realizing that it was not difficult to obtain ten times the level of bloodline source crystal, he made two immortal-level Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grasses with ten times the life gene make a small sacrifice.

Two Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grasses each sprouted a main vine tens of thousands of kilometers thick and millions of kilometers long, which was then stuffed into the Demon Refining Pot and transformed into a massive amount of Immortal-grade Life Source Crystals.

Anyway, there are a thousand main vines, and only one of them was cut off, so the loss of the divine body is only one-thousandth, and there is no impact on the strength.

Consider it a sacrifice of my own interests for the benefit of everyone.

With a massive amount of immortal-grade life source crystals, Lu Jin's own life gene reached six times its normal level. The Blood Thorn, which was diligently absorbing divine power to fill the gaps in its divine body, was immediately happy.

The gap in divine power no longer needs to be absorbed by it; by directly absorbing a large amount of immortal-level life source crystals, the strength of its divine body can be increased to six times the level of a high-ranking king.

Zi Ni Chang was busy refining Immortal-level Life Source Crystals to fill the gap in her divine power, while Lu Jin also began absorbing Stellar-level Life Source Crystals to replenish his 'thirsty' body.

Inside the World Ring.

"Ice Cone Style, Freeze!"

In mid-air, a glint flashed in Lu Jin's eyes as he pointed his finger at the towering mountain in the distance.

Instantly, the Frost God Weapon, which was shaped like a six-sided azure shield and carried on its back, flew out a string of azure light.

There were nine tiny, deep blue triangular cones. These nine blue cones were naturally dispersed, and at the same time, incredibly complex patterns flowed and connected with each other on their cones.

By incorporating his understanding of the laws of water, a three-inch ice cone shrouded in a hazy blue light instantly floated in front of Lu Jin.

The entire three-inch ice cone exuded a chilling aura and looked crystal clear, like a dream.

"call out--"

With a thought, Lu Jin sent out a burst of blue ice cones that transformed into a streak of azure light, shooting towards the towering mountain in the distance.

"boom--"

A deafening roar erupted, accompanied by a chilling aura that seemed to freeze time and space. In an instant, the towering mountain in the distance transformed into a massive iceberg.

And on the mountainside of that towering ice mountain, there is an 'ice tunnel' several meters in diameter that runs straight through the entire mountain.

"call out--"

The next moment, a stream of azure light that pierced through the entire mountain drew an arc in mid-air, soared into the sky, and then fell towards the summit of the towering ice mountain with the force of a meteorite.

This time, Lu Jin did not restrain the destructive range of his 'ice cone' attack.

"Rumble--"

A deafening roar, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were sinking, erupted as countless large and small boulders, glistening with ice crystals, tumbled and scattered. The towering mountain, frozen in solid ice, collapsed from its waist up, causing the surrounding tens of thousands of miles to tremble violently. It was no exaggeration to say that the sky had fallen and the earth had split open.

A peak Stellar Ninth-Order Spiritual Master capable of wielding the first level of the Nine Divine Weapons of the Master is considered invincible at the Stellar level.

In Lu Jin's view, his own human form's strength was not only invincible at the stellar level, but also among the best at the cosmic level.

After all, he also possesses a hundred times the life genes and a hundred times the psychic power amplitude.

Compared to a ninth-tier stellar mentalist genius who has also crossed the threshold of the lower-level primordial laws and can wield the first level of the nine divine weapons of mental power with a mental power amplitude of 50 times, the attack he can unleash is two hundred times that of his opponent.

After mastering the first level of the Ice Cone Technique, Lu Jin himself did not continue cultivating the "Heavenly Frost Secret Manual," but instead took out the "Falling Snow Secret Manual" to cultivate.

The specific level at which the Heavenly Frost Divine Weapon can be unleashed depends on the depth of one's understanding and perception of the laws.

Otherwise, if one's understanding of the laws is insufficient, forcing oneself to study the "Heavenly Frost Secret Manual" will definitely be a waste of effort.

Instead of stumbling through cultivation now, it would be better to focus on improving one's understanding of the laws.

As a special life form based on the law of water-space fusion, the Water Kirin clone is very suitable to follow the path of the Water-Space Beast God, comprehend the "Falling Snow Secret Manual," and understand all the mysteries of the law of water. This will undoubtedly be beneficial for mastering the law of water-space fusion in the future.
