Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 368 Luo Feng Asks for Help, Slaying the Flame Emperor
"Luo Feng, what's wrong?"

Qin Ming casually found a place to sit down and drank with Luo Feng.

"Senior brother, I've come to ask you for help. When your gene multiplier reached 10081 and your pronucleus was enhanced, how did you break through the pronuclear shackles?"

Luo Feng gave a wry smile.

He had already obtained the Nine Netherworld Avatar and entered Ice Prison Star to obtain the third Ultimate Secret Manual. The Nine Netherworld Avatar then broke through to 10081 times the perfect genes.

However, the pronucleus was too hard to break through.

In the original timeline, Luo Feng secluded himself in the Primal Secret Realm for 30,000 years and then traveled through the universe for 50,000 years before finally comprehending the ultimate secret technique of the Immortal level and breaking the shackles of the Primal Core.

But that was a last resort.

Since there is no road ahead, we have no choice but to forge our own path.

It's different now.

With Qin Ming leading the way, he naturally wanted to learn from Qin Ming's experience and avoid some detours.

Qin Ming was not an outsider to him.

He was not only his benefactor who had helped him along the way, but also his senior brother.

There's nothing shameful about seeking guidance from a fellow practitioner on spiritual matters.

"Simple! Just create the ultimate secret technique."

Qin Ming smiled and picked up his wine glass, clinked it with Luo Feng's, and then drank it all in one gulp.

"It's just as I thought."

Luo Feng shook his head and sighed. When he used his peak secret technique, he could only break through a few gaps. He guessed that he came to Qin Ming more to confirm this.

"But I can't let you call me senior brother for nothing. You've come at the perfect time. I do have a way to help you take another step forward and achieve a better breakthrough."

Qin Ming put down his wine glass and smiled.

For tens of millions of years, he devoted his time and energy to the Secret Pattern Diagram, and even compiled a secret method called the "Secret Pattern Diagram Record".

The "Secret Pattern Record" is still a bit too early for Luo Feng, who is only a Realm Lord.

It's also too complicated.

With this in mind, in order to enable the geniuses among the human race to better adopt the rune system, Qin Ming created a weakened version of the basic rune technique based on the "Rune Manual".

All powerful arcane arts are composed of 64 runes, but the runes of weak talents and arcane arts are too simple and not as complex as a single rune.

This is where the sacrificial rune system comes into play.

The sacrificial runes are of a lower level, at most three mysterious fusions, which Qin Ming had already completely mastered.

With such a high-level perspective, compiling a basic version suitable for the learning of genius realm masters and immortals is a piece of cake.

As for the "Secret Pattern Manual," only those who have made great contributions to the universe, as well as the Lord of the universe, will be able to learn it in the future.

"Senior brother, do you have a solution?"

Luo Feng's eyes lit up.

"This book, 'The Fundamentals of Mystic Runes,' is an optimized version of the sacrificial mystic rune system. Once you comprehend it, the difficulty of creating an ultimate mystic technique at the immortal level will be greatly reduced."

Qin Ming smiled, stopped teasing Luo Feng, and directly conjured a set of metal manuals in front of him.

He has already placed this set of secret manuals into the virtual universe, and its level is the same as that of Dark Master's "Dark Secret Manual" and Chaos City Lord's "True Understanding of the Universe".

A set of 1000 billion points is divided into nine tiers.

Even a genius at the stellar level can understand the first volume, and it greatly helps in comprehending the laws and understanding the principles.

"The Fundamentals of Secret Runes?"

Luo Feng took the metal manual and immediately opened it.

"So, arcane techniques can be created directly from runes? That's incredible! Creating ultimate arcane techniques is like solving a problem or programming?"

Luo Feng was shocked after just reading the preface to "The Basics of Secret Runes".

This is just the basics!

Does this mean there's something even stronger than this?

"There are indeed even stronger ones."

But that's too profound; you're getting into it too early.

You'll only be qualified to learn the "Secret Rune Manual" once you possess the strength of a cosmic overlord.

That was compiled by me, Master Darkness, Master Chaos, and all the other masters of the human universe over tens of millions of years.

Qin Ming laughed.

Compiled together with all the lords of the universe?
Luo Feng was startled.

He and Qin Ming left Earth together and participated in the Genius Battle together. Has the gap between them grown to this extent now?
Indeed, Senior Brother Qin Ming is known as the Lord of the Underworld!
He possessed the combat power of a universe master even earlier than his senior brother, the master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

As he sighed inwardly, Luo Feng bowed with his hands clasped, then said somewhat embarrassedly.

"There's one more thing I'd like to tell my senior brother in advance."

After I became the disciple of the Mountain Hermit, he prepared two treasures for me. One was the Star Tower, and the other was the supreme treasure, the Calamity Armor.

However, this armor is currently still in the hands of Emperor Yan.

Given the relationship between our human race and Emperor Yan, obtaining the treasure will probably not be so easy.

I can't activate it yet, but after I break through to immortality, I'll definitely find a way to get it back..."

"The supreme treasure of the highest grade, the 'Calamity Armor'?" Qin Ming nodded slightly; he naturally knew about it.

"This is easy to handle. Teacher Darkness, Senior Brother Youhou, and Teacher Qianwu can all help. Your Senior Brother Tianshi has also broken through to become the Lord of the Universe."

If the five of us go together, we could easily take down Emperor Yan.

But if we take action, will the people sitting on the mountain have any objections?
This is something you'll need to handle.

If it weren't necessary, Qin Ming wouldn't want to fall out with the Mountain Hermit right now.

He hasn't even managed to get the wool he was entitled to yet.

Once he officially broke through to become the Lord of the Universe, he planned to make a trip to the God of Craftsmanship Star to discuss the art of weapon crafting with the Lord of the God of Craftsmanship.

Let's see if we can trick the master craftsman into coming over.

Over the past tens of millions of years, he has studied with Long Xing, Master Peng Gong, and the Primordial Ancestor. Now, refining ordinary treasures is no longer a problem for him, but refining advanced treasures remains difficult.

However, the Lord of Dragon Journey and the Lord of Peng Gong have combined the "Secret Pattern Record" with weapon crafting, and have already reached the threshold of top-level weapon crafting masters, and are expected to craft top-tier treasures.

Previously, everyone's main focus was on perfecting the "Secret Rune Catalog," and its specific application still requires a long time to refine.

And if you want to go further on the path of weapon crafting, what could be a greater opportunity than becoming a weapon crafting god-king?

“I told the Mountain Guest in advance that he would handle this matter himself, and that it would be fine if Emperor Yan gave me the treasure directly.”

If he doesn't give it to them, then he has only himself to blame!

Luo Feng sneered. He had taken this into consideration when he spoke to Qin Ming.

"You're going to handle this? That makes things much easier."

Qin Ming's eyes lit up.

This is what I've been waiting for!
He had been coveting the Flame Emperor for a long time, but it was only because the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf was in charge of the Myriad Soul Banner, which allowed the Myriad Soul Banner to advance to the eighth rank, that he was no longer in such a hurry.

But who would complain about having too many main souls?

What's even more interesting is that Qin Ming discovered that the Yan God Clan and the Myriad Soul Banner are a perfect match.

They are born with strong bodies but weak souls, which causes them to become weak after reaching the Immortal and Venerable stages, and they have even more obvious weaknesses after reaching the Universe Lord realm.

However, the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls can compensate for this shortcoming through the essence of the soul.

Over thousands of years in the primordial universe, the Myriad Souls Banner has collected a large number of immortal souls, among which naturally some exceptionally talented individuals have broken through to become Universe Venerables.

To Qin Ming's surprise, the first to break through was not the invincible kings like 'Nan Cheng' and 'Xuan Mu Wang', but the 'Iron Blood King' from the Yan God Clan!
After entering the Myriad Soul Banner, the Iron-Blooded King continuously absorbed the essence of souls, and with the help of his powerful body, his strength skyrocketed, breaking through to become a Universe Venerable, which directly surpassed his original Universe Venerable status.

In terms of strength, it is already at the level of a cosmic overlord.

The most ingenious thing is that the evolution mechanism of the Flame God Clan is a perfect match for the Myriad Soul Banner.

The more you fight, the stronger you become, and the easier it is to break through.

If it were a normal member of the Flame God Clan, they could easily go berserk in a frenzied battle and would be extremely vulnerable to death.

But with the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, even if you die in battle, you can be resurrected very quickly!
Within the Myriad Soul Banner, three of the main souls at the Universe Venerable level are already members of the Flame God Clan.

This was quite a pleasant surprise for Qin Ming.

If the Iron-Blooded King is like this, then what about Emperor Yan himself?
Yan Di's performance was indeed lackluster.

But no matter what, he was the master of the universe, an existence on which the Mountain-Sitting Guest once placed great hopes.

After killing it and taking it as the main soul, its soul will be replenished, and its potential may even be greater, reaching the level of a divine body with a power of ninety thousand times that the Mountain Guest had been hoping for.

The War God Potion is good, but it's still somewhat inferior to the bloodline of the Flame God Clan.

At least for now, the War God Potion cannot break through the 100-fold gene limit, but the Yan God Clan bloodline can.

"Tell me before you go to find Emperor Yan after you break through to become an immortal."

When you ask him for the armor, you might as well be a little arrogant. I will go with Teacher Dark and the others and kill that Yan Emperor directly.

It also rid humanity of a great scourge.

The Flame God Clan can also completely return to our human race.

Qin Ming laughed.

Luo Feng will need some time to break through to the Immortal realm. By then, he will have broken through to become the Lord of the Universe, and defeating a Flame Emperor will be no problem for him.

Considering that the Nine Domains Alliance, where Yan Di resides, might provide support, given that he is located within the primordial universe and possesses three supreme treasures of the highest quality.

Bringing along Dark Teacher, Qianwu Teacher, and Senior Brother Youhou and Senior Brother Tianshi will greatly increase our chances of success.

If that's still not enough.

Other powerful beings, such as the founder of the Giant Axe and the senior master of the Chaos City, can also be mobilized at any time.

Once I break through to the next level, I can openly use the Myriad Soul Banner.

Ten Thousand Soul Banners?
No, no!
At that time, it should be called the Human Emperor Banner. After the death of billions of lives in the human race and even the primordial universe, they will all have to go through the Netherworld!
When you are strong enough, everything can be discussed openly.

"Alright! Then I'll trouble you, senior brother."

Luo Feng chuckled.

You can enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree!
Not only the Mountain Guest, the Lord of Darkness, and the Lord of Qianwu, but also Qin Ming and others, there are a total of 5 Universe Lords!
In terms of background, who has a stronger one than him?

The senior brothers under the Lord of Darkness all speak kindly and can come to our aid quickly at a moment's notice.

"Then I will go and cultivate myself."

While excited, Luo Feng also felt an even greater desire to improve his strength.

The teachers and senior students are improving their skills rapidly, so I can't fall too far behind.

Once he breaks through to immortality, his strength will increase a hundredfold, and with the supreme treasure, the Calamity Armor, he will be no weaker than an ordinary top-tier cosmic overlord!
