Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 437 Giant Axe: Let's venture into the Cosmic Sea together!
"The Flame God Clan?"

"They didn't choose a special life form?"

All the lords of the universe were astonished.

Choosing the Nine Nether Sea as their first clone is perfectly fine. If it were them, the Nine Nether Sea would definitely be their first choice, as it is a divine body that can eventually grow to 12 light-years!
With this divine body, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is comparable to the most powerful treasure, and there is almost no risk of him perishing.

That alone is enough to make everyone's heart flutter.

Not to mention that the Nine Netherworld clone also has the talent for creation, and can follow the unknown but more powerful divine power path that Qin Ming mentioned.

They lacked confidence in themselves, but had complete confidence in Qin Ming.

If Qin Ming paves the way, perhaps they can follow suit and break through to become true gods with even greater strength.

As a result, many cosmic lords have already begun to use bloodline potions.

Could the second clone choose the Flame God Clan?
This has puzzled many people. The talent of the Yan God Clan is considered good among ordinary races, but it is very average among special life forms.

"Qin Ming believes that the Yan God Clan has extremely strong talent, even greater potential than many top-tier special life forms. I believe in Qin Ming!"

Faced with numerous questions, the Lord of Qianwu spoke, his enormous pupils glancing almost imperceptibly at the Mountain Guest beside Qin Ming.

The mountain dweller also smiled at the master of the Qianwu.

He was very hesitant and conflicted when considering creating a clone.

The Lord of Qianwu was well aware of his own talent and comprehension. Reincarnation could improve him to some extent, but it was unlikely that it would bring about a complete qualitative change.

Then just follow your disciple.

Qin Ming gave him a recommendation: the Yan God Clan!

It would be best to cultivate a good relationship with the Mountain Man, as this might greatly help him improve his strength in the future.

It just so happens that the person sitting on the mountain has the same idea.

So the two sides hit it off immediately.

The relationship is getting better and better.

"Does Qin Ming believe that the talent of the Yan God Clan is stronger than that of many top-tier special life forms?"

The Dragon Lord's pupils contracted. He had a good relationship with Qin Ming and knew that Qin Ming had put a lot of effort into the Yan God Clan's bloodline.

The War God Potion among human races originated from the Flame God Clan.

Even a heaven-defying technique like the "Perfect Secret Manual" is related to the Yan God Clan, which made him hesitate.

The other lords of the universe were also astonished.

If anyone else had said this, they would absolutely not have believed it.

How could an ordinary race possibly have more talent and potential than top-tier special life forms?
But if this person is Qin Ming, they are not sure.

"The Yan God Clan does indeed have great potential, which is somewhat beneficial for those pursuing the divine power path, but this is just my personal speculation and has not yet been proven."

Seeing that most of the universe lords were looking at him, Qin Ming also spoke up to explain.

Over the past tens of thousands of years, he has never stopped exploring the bloodline of the Yan God Clan and has made some discoveries.

Especially after killing the Yan Emperor and expending some resources to increase his gene multiplier to 10081 times, and then using the Myriad Soul Banner to conduct an in-depth investigation, many new discoveries were made.

This group, which the mountain dwellers have high hopes for and believe has the potential to multiply its genes by 90,000, is indeed very special. After making up for the defects in its soul, its potential is limitless.

It is also very suitable for Teacher Qianwu.

If you could also build a good relationship with the Mountain Hermit and get his guidance on how to break through, that would be even better.

No one understands the Yan God Clan better than Zuo Shan Ke.

"I see!"

The Lord of Dragon Journey, the Lord of Wilderness Mirror, and others all seemed to be deep in thought.

"I also plan to reincarnate. I have already found a suitable body for my next life. I would appreciate it if you could lend me a hand, Qin Ming."

"The Lord of Dragons said in a deep voice."

He himself has an avatar, but the avatar is not very powerful. Now that he sees the Lord of Qianwu successfully reincarnated, he can no longer suppress the thoughts in his heart.

"And I!"

Lord Youhou's eyes also lit up. He had wanted to follow the Dark Teacher when he was reincarnated last time, but he didn't have a suitable body to be reincarnated.

"Alas, I have not yet found a suitable body to be reincarnated!"

"..."

One by one, the lords of the universe were either excited or troubled. After truly witnessing the successful reincarnation, who wouldn't want to start over and make up for the regrets of their cultivation?

How to make your foundation more solid?
"No problem, one at a time!"

Qin Ming smiled; he too hoped that the human race would grow stronger.

Ideally, a group of top geniuses and strong individuals would emerge, able to keep up with him and travel together to the Origin Continent in the future.

……

The reincarnation process went smoothly, with seven universe masters choosing to reincarnate in this wave, each of them being a special life form with a life level no less than five hundred times higher.

Meanwhile, the Lord of the Qianwu also began a new period of cultivation.

Considering issues such as cultivation and safety, the Lord of Qianwu did not leave the Netherworld Divine Kingdom, but instead settled down permanently.

By controlling spacetime through the World Tree, time acceleration is activated.

The World Tree possesses an extremely powerful talent for controlling spacetime, comparable to the strongest beings, and can easily maintain an acceleration of nearly ten thousand times.

With a speed increase of ten thousand times, one year becomes ten thousand years. In addition, the Lord of Qianwu has prepared cultivation resources in advance, such as a large number of souls of cosmic venerables, souls of cosmic lords, and essence of flesh and blood.

He quickly conceived all three of his clones, and the gene multiplier reached 10081!

The resources required to increase gene multiplication when one is a realm lord are thousands or even tens of thousands of times less than those required to increase gene multiplication after becoming a universe lord.

He then easily broke through the original core's shackles, becoming immortal, and then broke through to become a Venerable One and the Lord of the Universe.

The entire process took less than two years in the primordial universe!

That's ridiculously exaggerated.

When he regained his position as the ruler of the universe, the strength and potential of the Lord of the Qianwu were more than ten times greater than in his previous life.
The second one conceived was Senior Brother Bai Feng.

As the overlord of the universe, his understanding of the laws of time was already very high, but due to interference from the laws and other reasons, he was just one step away from achieving it.

When reincarnated as a special life form of time, this obstacle is overcome almost effortlessly, and one becomes another universe master of the human race.

Then came the Lord of Darkness, who, like the Lord of Qianwu, first chose the Nine Netherworlds as his avatar, second chose the Flame God Clan, and third was another top-tier special life form.

One by one, the lords of the universe returned successfully, their strength rapidly restored to its peak.

Three thousand years later.

The Lord of Chaos City finally put down his many burdens and chose a top-tier time-space special life form for himself to be reincarnated.

The overall strength of the human race has quietly increased to an almost terrifying level.

Although the number of race-level universe masters is only over thirty.

However, in terms of combat power, it is comparable to hundreds of top universe masters!
……

"Over three thousand years, although I have made considerable progress in my understanding of laws and secret techniques, I still cannot refine a supreme treasure, and my divine power flow is stuck at 10081 times, unable to advance any further."

Within the Netherworld God Kingdom, Qin Ming gazed into the distance, and sighed inwardly.

At present, the two most important things for him are two things.

One approach is to use the Netherworld as a breakthrough point to strengthen the River of Souls while simultaneously enhancing one's own strength on the path of the soul.

Another one is the breakthrough of the Divine Power Stream!
However, progress in both of these areas has been minimal.

"The art of weapon crafting is profound and complex. Crafting a supreme treasure of the highest level is not an easy task. My understanding of the laws is still insufficient."

The direction of the divine power flow is also a bit troublesome.

Without a lineage or sufficient high-quality material, it's extremely difficult to make a breakthrough.

Perhaps it's time to venture into the vast ocean of space.

Qin Ming was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

It is virtually impossible to stay in the primordial universe and continuously improve one's strength without taking any risks.

One must have enough experience, even struggle, to keep climbing upwards.

In the past, his strength was able to improve rapidly by killing and fighting on the battlefield outside the domain, and he also had the Soul Clan as a powerful weapon, which allowed him to perceive the entire primordial universe through their eyes and ears.

After establishing the Netherworld, one can experience the cycle of life and death of countless beings within it and gain insight into their lives.

But with his current strength, there is nothing in the primordial universe that can threaten his life or allow him to fight without restraint.

The rate at which one's strength improves naturally slows down.

Qin Ming originally planned to refine a large number of Ten Thousand Soul Banner branches, completely cover the primordial universe with the Netherworld, and then explore the cosmic sea.

But after acquiring the core weapon-refining heritage of the Jin Kingdom, he no longer looked down on this inefficient method.

That would require too many resources.

A better approach would be to directly refine a supreme treasure of the pinnacle realm, or even a supreme treasure of the level, such as the Myriad Soul Banner, and then completely cover the primordial universe.

According to his estimate, it would take about a thousand top-tier treasures, or a dozen or so supreme treasures, to complete the task, with the Myriad Soul Banner as the core.

"With my current strength, I should be able to enter the Cosmic Sea. The only thing that is still somewhat useful to me in the Primal Universe is probably the Primal Star."

However, the treasures nurtured by the primordial star are only ordinary treasures and high-grade treasures.

Even top-tier treasures are incredibly rare!

Qin Ming murmured.

Why not go and fight in the cosmic ocean!
Killing the strongest being in the universe is more rewarding than collecting souls over 10 years in the original universe, since that is a life form within an entire microcosm.

The foundation of the strongest beings in the universe during the first and second cycles is incomparable to that of the Dream Demon Ancestor and the Zerg Queen.

After the great battle ended, he made a pact with Giant Axe to venture into the Cosmic Sea together.

It's time to set off.

Qin Ming originally wanted to wait for the Lord of Yuan'ao to see if he would appear.

But after thousands of years, the Lord of Yuan'ao did not return from the Cosmic Sea, and he was too lazy to wait any longer.

The fragments of the Inclined Peak Realm map (the Silk-Pulling Map) brought back by the Lord of Yuan'ao were a key reason for the fall of the giant axe in the original timeline.

But so what?
Even when he encountered the three eighth-order true gods enslaved by the Beast Realm Beasts—the Lord of Haolei Star, King Zhenjia, and Ancestral God Qiuyan—he was completely unafraid, traveling with the giant axe.

You can even turn the tables and kill them!

Nearly five thousand years have passed, and the giant axe has become familiar with that supreme treasure armor, which then extended an invitation to him.

Qin Ming made his decision and transmitted his voice to the giant axe.

"Giant Axe, prepare to head to the Cosmic Sea."
