The Nine Secrets of Swallowing the Stars Combined

"brush!"

With a thought, two weapons appeared in front of Ba Qi.

A golden spear, nearly two meters long, emanated a sharp aura belonging to the fundamental law of metal, and the void around the spearhead seemed to be about to shatter and tear apart.

There was also a chilling, bone-chilling ice-blue armor that seemed to be forged entirely from ice, making Ba Qi feel as if his soul was about to freeze.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ba Qi, his face beaming with joy, directly imprinted his life mark, recognizing the two weapons as his own.

In an instant, he learned about the two weapons.

"As expected of the teacher, his skills are truly extraordinary!" Ba Qi once again showed a look of surprise.

The ice-blue armor, named the Mystic Ice Divine Armor, is a top-tier defensive treasure.

And that golden spear is an incomparably powerful treasure!

"Star-Splitting Spear!" Ba Qi stepped into the void, took a step forward, and directly grasped the golden divine spear, his eyes flashing with brilliant light.

He was skilled in using the weapon spear, and in the Blood Luo World, he fought endlessly with a blood spear, earning the reputation of the Blood God.

At this moment, the Star-Splitting Spear before us, although it is only of the most ordinary level among supreme weapons, is still a supreme treasure!

In terms of power, it is many times stronger than the blood spear he originally used, enough to make even a universe venerable fight to the death!

The fundamental principle of the War Spear Alloy is that it is inherently sharp and indestructible, and when combined with the spearhead, it is enough to pierce through everything.

Not to mention, this supreme treasure spear also contains powerful law runes.

The original Ba Qi did not have a clear concept of the difference between major treasures and supreme treasures. He only knew that major treasures were enough to make the King-level Immortals frantically fight for them, while supreme treasures were enough to make the Universe Venerables fight to the death.

It wasn't until recently, when the Lord of Ice Peak revealed some cosmic secrets to him that only beings at the level of cosmic overlords or higher could access, that Ba Qi gained a relatively clear understanding.

The biggest difference between treasures and supreme treasures and ordinary immortal divine weapons is that they all contain law patterns, or in other words, secret patterns!

"The so-called secret techniques are actually the methods and means by which strong individuals apply their understanding of the laws to combat."

"Since their essence is the power of laws, all secret techniques can naturally be imprinted in the form of law patterns."

Ba Qi's eyes flickered as he looked at the Star-Splitting Spear in his hand, which was covered with intricate and profound law patterns.

The secret techniques created by cultivators are imprinted on weapon materials in the form of law patterns.

Users only need to comprehend the profound mysteries of the laws and runes contained in the weapon and infuse it with divine power during battle to unleash the power of the secret technique!

This is the magic of unique weapons like treasures and supreme treasures!

"The stronger the secret technique corresponding to the law pattern, the higher the level of the treasure!" Ba Qi thought to himself.

Generally speaking, the secret techniques in the primordial universe can be roughly divided into several levels: unorthodox, ordinary, top-level, peak, and ultimate.

"The secret techniques created by ordinary immortal military lords and elite realm lords are basically second-rate," Ba Qi muttered to himself. "While the secret techniques created by marquis-level immortal gods are of ordinary level."

"As for the secret techniques created by peerless geniuses at the realm lord level and immortal kings, they can reach the top level."

As for the secret techniques at the peak and ultimate levels, only those at the level of a Universe Venerable or above, and a very small number of extraordinary beings who have attained the status of King Immortal and whose understanding of the laws is extremely close to that of a Venerable, are capable of creating them.

"I remember the Lord of Chaos City once told Luo Feng that almost every one of the Universe Venerables has created a peak secret technique." Ba Qi thought to himself, "For example, the True Evolution King, although his understanding of the laws has not yet fully entered the Venerable level, it is extremely close, so he has also created several peak-level secret techniques."

The term "Peak Secret Technique" generally refers to the Peak Secret Technique of a Cosmic Venerable, as it can only be created by those who have reached the level of a Cosmic Venerable.

Of course, even a Cosmic Venerable can create an even higher level of ultimate secret technique, but because it was created by a Cosmic Venerable and utilizes the spatial laws of a Venerable level, it is called the Cosmic Venerable's Ultimate Secret Technique.

"In short, the so-called peak and ultimate are just descriptions of the complexity and mystery of the secret technique. As for the power of the secret technique itself, it mainly depends on the level of understanding of the laws used by the powerful person who created the secret technique!" Ba Qi thought to himself.

It's a very simple principle. Even though they are both top-level secret techniques, the one created by a Cosmic Venerable using the complete laws of space is definitely not as good as the one created by a Cosmic Overlord like Herodo using the complete laws of the Beast God's Way of Golden Void Fusion, and it is even less good than the one created by a Cosmic Lord like the Lord of Chaos using Cosmic Lord-level laws.

In other words, the most detailed classification of the progressive power of secret techniques is as follows: unranked, ordinary, top-tier, peak Venerable, ultimate Venerable, peak Overlord, ultimate Overlord, peak Universe Lord, and ultimate Universe Lord.

Of course, Ba Qi also knew that above the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, there were even stronger secret techniques of the Lord of the Universe, the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe fusion, and secret techniques at the level of the strongest in the universe!

However, these secret techniques are incredibly distant even for a cosmic venerable. Let alone creating them, they probably couldn't even learn them, and they wouldn't even be able to understand the secret runes placed in front of them!

"Speaking of which, Luo Feng's Secret Pattern School is truly heaven-defying," Ba Qi suddenly exclaimed inwardly. "He was actually able to create a higher-level secret technique despite insufficient understanding of the laws!"

Normally, without sufficient understanding of the laws, it is impossible to create a secret technique of the corresponding level.

For example, it would be almost impossible for a Cosmic Venerable to create a secret technique at the level of a Cosmic Lord.

Therefore, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor dared to bet with the Mountain-Sitting Guest, because he simply did not believe that Luo Feng could create the ultimate secret technique of the Universe Lord at the Immortal level, because this was even more outrageous than the Universe Venerable creating a secret technique at the Universe Lord level.

Similarly, this is why, when Luo Feng used the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe on the Primordial Star, the powerful figures of all races believed that he must have become the Lord of the Universe and that his understanding of the laws had reached the corresponding level of the Lord of the Universe.

Even the Lord of Chaos City told Luo Feng that since he had created a secret technique at the level of the Lord of the Universe, even if his divine body was still that of a Universe Venerable, he was no different from a true Lord of the Universe.

Of course, besides Luo Feng, there is another special case.

For example, when vying for the inheritance of the Duan Donghe lineage, the Azure Blood Venerable sent by the Eastern Emperor Holy Land was a Universe Venerable, but like Luo Feng, he had already created a Universe Lord-level secret technique.

This is because the Holy Land Universe cannot accommodate more Universe Lords, which is why the Azure Blood Venerable cannot break through, not because he lacks the ability to do so.

Quasi-Universe Lords like the Azure Blood Venerable, who possess the comprehension of laws and secret techniques at the level of a Universe Lord but are unable to break through, can only exist in small universes. Such a thing could not happen in the primordial universe.

Only someone like Luo Feng, who follows the Secret Pattern School and relies on the arrangement and combination of Secret Patterns rather than on the comprehension of laws, can create stronger secret techniques across realms.

This is precisely the strength of the Secret Pattern School.

It enables the weak to create high-level secret techniques even without the corresponding understanding of the laws.

Only in this way can a miracle like Luo Feng's, who defeated the universe's overlord with an immortal body and contended with the universe's master with the realm of a universe venerable, be created.
