Chapter 175, Secret Method
Within the Divine Realm, the Nine Nether Ocean was boiling. Ye Muxuan looked up at the pressure emanating from the secret patterns formed by the secret technique above the Nine Nether Ocean, and couldn't hide the smile on his lips.
For the last tens of thousands of years, he has stopped lecturing in Chaos City and instead devoted himself to cultivation in the Divine Kingdom, creating his own secret techniques.
With the four top-tier treasures—the Wind and Rain Pavilion, the Starry Realm, the Rock-Covering Armor, and the Cracked Mace—Ye Muxuan not only gained better control over the treasures by comprehending their secret runes, but also enriched his own foundation, broadened his horizons, and broadened his knowledge.
The Rock-Covering Armor and the Cracked Mace were the first to comprehend the second level of the secret runes, and they are close to the third level now. The Starry Realm is a very good top-tier domain treasure, and the Wind and Rain Pavilion is the finest among top-tier palace treasures. Even many universe lords do not possess such treasures. Although both have three levels of secret runes, the first level of these two treasures is at the level of a universe overlord, and the second level is at the level of a universe lord.
Even though Ye Muxuan has now entered the Venerable realm and his foundation has improved, it still took him more than 70,000 years to finally fully comprehend the second level of the Wind and Rain Pavilion's secret runes. After expending tens of thousands of years of effort and energy, he had a flash of inspiration while comprehending the secret runes and created a peak secret technique of the Universe Overlord, which greatly enhanced his strength once again.
On two distant, different primordial stars, Li Yan's clone and Qing Yuzhu's clone simultaneously looked up at the direction of the divine kingdom.
Tens of thousands of years ago, all the original planets had already completed their search for the most precious treasures. To find more treasures, one would have to wait for newly born planets that hadn't yet been discovered, and even then, such planets were rare. Therefore, only these two clones are still vying for the most precious treasures on the original planets, while the rest of the clones have returned to their divine kingdoms.
Currently, Qing Yuzhu's clone and Li Yan's clone are competing for ordinary and high-level treasures. Over tens of thousands of years, they have amassed a considerable fortune, but the quantity is incomparable to what they had before. However, since they cannot go to the Cosmic Sea now, they are competing for treasures on the Primordial Star while also fighting with other powerful individuals, experiencing the secret techniques of different experts, and enriching themselves.
Over the past 70,000 years, Li Yan's clone has not been idle either, and now his life gene multiplier has reached 3200 times. In fact, it had already reached 3000 times tens of thousands of years ago, but only now did he realize that to exceed 3000 times, he needed to devour high-grade treasures to continue to improve.
Before a hundred times, it devours various fire-attribute materials; before a thousand times, it devours precious treasures; before three thousand times, it devours ordinary supreme treasures. Beyond three thousand times, it requires high-grade supreme treasures. What about five thousand times, six thousand times? Or even ten thousand times and perfect genes?
I don't think the future looks promising; things seem a bit bleak.
This is also one of the reasons that prompted Ye Muxuan to choose to create his own secret technique. He planned to go to the Cosmic Sea to explore when he was strong enough. The premise was that he needed to create the ultimate secret technique of the Cosmic Overlord, or even the secret technique at the level of the Cosmic Lord. Otherwise, the treasures he picked up here on the Primordial Star would definitely not be enough to make Li Yan's clone's gene multiplier reach five thousand times!
To devour a high-level treasure, it must be of the fire attribute. The Crimson Flame Alliance itself is dominated by fire-attribute experts, and now there are no more experts left to exchange treasures with Li Yan. Even the treasures in the alliance's treasury are all other kinds of treasures; there isn't a single high-level fire-attribute treasure left, as they've all been exchanged by Li Yan's clones.
As for top-tier treasures, they do exist, but Li Yan's clone can't afford to exchange them.
Finally, Li Yan's clone had "cooperated" with Qing Yuzhu's clone to empty the Northern Frontier Alliance's treasure vault of high-grade fire-attribute treasures. Even so, they had only exchanged ten high-grade treasures so far. Adding the high-grade treasures they had previously exchanged in the Crimson Flame Alliance's treasure vault, they had almost emptied all the gains of the past tens of thousands of years to increase the value to 3200 times.
If they were to go any further, they would need to exchange other treasures from the Hongmeng Treasury and then go to the Northern Frontier Alliance to exchange them, but that would be a bit of a loss, so Li Yan's clone stopped.
I wonder if the other Li Yan in the universe will despair if they know this news. Normally, they can only increase their gene multiplier after breaking through to the level of a Universe Lord and breaking the limitations.
……
Within the Divine Kingdom, the seven-story Wind and Rain Tower, suspended above the Nine Nether Ocean, emitted a faint, clear light. On the top floor of the Wind and Rain Tower, Ye Muxuan carefully comprehended his self-created peak secret technique of the Cosmic Overlord. After a long while, he opened his eyes and then left the Divine Kingdom.
Yan Tong had reminded him long ago that he had to go to Qingyuan Star Region today.
Because the Qingyuan Clan finally has a new Grand Elder besides the Clan Chief and the Great Elder Zhongli!
The future elder of the Wei tribe, after cultivating for over 400,000 years, finally succeeded in entering immortality and became a great elder.
He was born after the Qingyuan Clan migrated to the Qingyuan Starfield. He rose to prominence alongside Yan Tong Qingque and later became an elder of the Qingyuan Clan. Although he wasn't particularly outstanding compared to the geniuses of the human race, he was exceptionally brilliant among the Qingyuan Clan members. However, while Yan Tong Qingque later married the clan leader, he married much earlier, during his time as a Domain Lord—at that time, the Domain Lord was still an elder. Now, he has finally reached the Immortal realm!
All members of the Qingyuan Clan were overjoyed. Becoming immortals in the future meant that the Qingyuan Clan's foundation would be even stronger. While the Bewitching King and her servants were strong and loyal, this was merely an external force, not the clan's own strength. Therefore, the significance of becoming immortals in the future was amplified.
The celebration banquet for the future breakthrough to immortality lasted for several months, and Ye Muxuan, as the clan leader, also gifted a very high-end mechanical race spaceship. Moreover, his future wives and children all returned, and he had a large family, with descendants stretching for hundreds of generations. Unlike Ye Muxuan's children, none of them were married. The girls were alright, but the eldest son, Lianfeng, and the third son, Qingwu, each had several concubines, but none had official titles or children. Yan Tong and Qingque sometimes felt anxious about it.
In fact, several people around Ye Muxuan could have become immortals by now. For example, Qingque could have broken through to immortality tens of thousands of years ago, but Ye Muxuan suppressed it, letting her gain more insights at the realm master stage, and preferably improve to the king-level realm before breaking through, so that she could directly condense the king-level divine body.
As for Yan Tong, Lian Feng, Chen Xing, and the others, with Ye Muxuan's current power, even a piece of trash could be forced into the Immortal realm, but is it necessary? If they want to leave on their own, let them leave first. If they can't leave anymore in the future, he will give them a push from behind.
However, now that the future elders have become immortals, it's estimated that Yan Tong and Qing Que won't be able to wait and will break through soon. But if Lian Feng wants to break through, Qing Que will probably make him get married and have offspring first.
Ninety thousand years ago, Lian Feng had already retired. Of his original team, only three survived to retire; the rest perished on the battlefields beyond the realms. He, however, has honed his skills and is now capable of defeating even an immortal military lord—a feat that can be considered an enlightenment of the laws of becoming a marquis.
He is currently cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City to prepare for entering immortality.
