Chapter 257, The Jade Tower Recognizes Its Master
In the inner domain of the spaceship, in front of a black-patterned stone pillar where no powerful figures reside, a small metal spike suddenly emitted a subtle fluctuation of divine power, and an extremely strong will broke through the barrier.
The originally intense pressure of the will now felt like a gentle breeze, like a fish leaping out of the deep sea or a bird soaring into the sky.
Liuchong Mountain, Inner Region, Qingyu Valley.
Having cultivated for over five billion epochs within the cultivation space at a ten-thousand-fold time acceleration, the newly born Qing Yuzhu stood up, her jade-like bamboo branches swaying.
They left the secluded cultivation space.
In the main hall of the second floor of the Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda, the newly born Qing Yuzhu appeared, her clear voice ringing out: "Lord Pagoda Spirit!"
"What is it?" The chaotic energy condensed into a giant human face, which appeared almost instantly within the Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda.
"I think I can integrate the third control core now!" The jade-green branches and leaves of the newly grown Qingyu Bamboo, which is millions of kilometers tall, swayed.
Makes a sound.
It took him tens of millions of years to fuse the second crystal sphere (not counting the time acceleration he cultivated in seclusion), and now hundreds of thousands of epochs have passed.
After changing his appearance, he placed a metal spike from his fragmented clone on the black-patterned stone pillar to hone his will. Now, he has finally broken through the will of the Lord of the Universe and reached the level of the strongest in the universe!
By fusing with the third control core crystal sphere, the will of the strongest is merely the foundation.
"Then give it a try." A face formed from chaotic energy looked down at the newly sprouted Jade Bamboo below, and a jade-green crystal sphere suddenly appeared.
Fly over slowly.
A bamboo branch caught the jade-colored crystal ball, and divine power emanated from the bamboo leaves, outlining intricate and complex patterns around the crystal ball.
By recognizing and fusing with the third control core crystal sphere, one can begin to control the entire Azure Jade Pagoda. This requires not only the will of the strongest individual but also the recognition of the Azure Jade Pagoda itself by the level of the formation.
The newly born Qing Yuzhu is now carving an array in the void, using divine power to outline his strongest array pattern.
He has studied killing formations for hundreds of thousands of epochs, and could long ago inscribe formation patterns comparable to sixth-tier secret techniques. Moreover, in recent years he has successively acquired four supreme treasures: the Huang Battle Armor, the Crimson Flame Hand, the Azure Sky Palace, and the Purple Radiance, and has been studying the secret patterns on them. Even disregarding his mastery of formations, he is now quite accomplished.
He also used this to create a sixth-level secret technique.
The jade-green bamboo leaves swayed, and the bamboo branches were meticulously carved with array patterns. At a certain moment, as the last stroke was completed, the array patterns in the void silently appeared on the jade-green crystal sphere.
The more complex array patterns on the surface of the crystal sphere lit up, gradually resonating with the array patterns surrounding it. Finally, the array patterns carved by the newly formed Qingyu bamboo fell onto the crystal sphere.
"It's done!" The branches and leaves of the newly grown Qingyu bamboo swayed, making a rustling sound.
If the engraved array patterns do not meet the minimum requirements of the crystal sphere, they cannot be placed on it!
For those disciples of sects, it is not difficult for the Lord of Laws (Lord of the Universe) to possess the will of a true god, but it is difficult to meet the minimum array requirements of a crystal sphere.
However, unless something bad happens to the sect as it is now, it is impossible for such a Hall of Inheritance to fall into the hands of a disciple at the level of a Universe Lord.
The jade-colored crystal sphere, imprinted with array patterns, floated up and merged into Ye Muxuan's soul.
Within his soul, three jade-colored crystal spheres were integrated, each with 10081 fine lines drawn from the secret runes of laws appearing on its surface. These three crystal spheres then formed a strange array.
Ye Muxuan recognized this formation; it was recorded in the sect's core inheritance, "Yuan Formation."
However, he only knew of it and couldn't see anything mysterious about it.
Naturally, it's because his current level of array formation is too low; his realm is insufficient to access this level. It's like showing the last image on the Chaos Stele to a small, ephemeral star-level being—they wouldn't see anything unusual about it.
The three crystal spheres formed an array, and the bamboo branches of the newly grown Qingyu Bamboo rose up, "looking" towards the top of the Qingjing Jade Pagoda. At this moment, with the help of these three control cores, he could sense that there were six more control cores above.
Only by fully integrating all the core elements can one be considered the master of the Inheritance Hall. Right now, he can only control it to a preliminary extent.
The array formed by the three crystal spheres trembled slightly, and the Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda, which was nine light-years tall, shrank rapidly, eventually shrinking to a size of tens of millions of kilometers, and hovering in front of him.
"From now on, I'll call you the Azure Jade Pagoda." The bamboo branch of the newly grown Azure Jade Bamboo rested on the body of the Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda, "gazing" at the azure jade-colored pagoda, before being absorbed into its body.
As divine power flowed, Ye Muxuan could clearly sense just how terrifying the energy the Azure Jade Tower needed to maintain its operation was. If it were still a Universe Venerable, even maintaining the minimum operating cost would only take a maximum of three minutes for all the divine power of this newly born Azure Jade Bamboo to be completely absorbed.
The terror of this Inheritance Hall is not something prepared for a Universe Venerable!
Putting away the Jade Pagoda, the newly born Qingyuzhu looked at the empty Jade Valley. The stone pillar array outside no longer posed a threat.
Outside Qingyu Valley, Huang's clone, standing at an altitude of seven million kilometers, awaited. After the newly born Qingyu Bamboo appeared, it directly entered Huang's clone's world ring, while Qingyu Tower entered Huang's clone's body.
Bringing the Jade Pagoda back to the primordial universe is of utmost importance, as it means there's no longer a need to guard this place. It also means that the overlords and even the Venerables within the race can begin to access the inheritance.
Some extremely ancient cosmic venerables, those cosmic rulers who rose to prominence early in human history, such as the rulers of Qianwu, Yuanchen, Gulun, and Mingyou, have almost exhausted their potential on the path of laws and are unlikely to make any further progress. It's unknown whether changing their path might spark any new insights. If they gain any insights through analogy, even a small one, it might add another cosmic ruler to the human race.
Even without the hope of becoming the strongest, a ruler of the universe is still extremely important to the current human race—even if it's just to have them specifically resurrect those immortals and venerables who died in battle.
Lost in these wild thoughts, Huang realized he was being unrealistic and taking the Lord of the Universe too lightly. After informing the many humans and the Lord of the Universe of the Hong Alliance, Huang's clone prepared to leave the inner domain and depart from Liuchong Mountain.
It is a fairly safe stronghold for the human race and the Hong Alliance in the inner region of Liuzhong Mountain. Over the past hundreds of thousands of epochs, it has also rescued many universe lords of the Hong Alliance. Now that it is about to leave, they need to be more careful when exploring.
Fortunately, the three strongest beings in the human universe—the Giant Axe Founder, the Chaos True God, and the Peng Gong True God—are all located within the Liuchong Mountain region, though their distances vary. The Dark Demon God is also not far away. As long as they don't encounter the most insane lunatics from the first era of reincarnation, most universe masters are currently unwilling to offend humanity. If any universe master were to encounter danger, the strongest could easily tear through spacetime with sheer force.
