Swallowing the Stars: Starting from the Endless Dungeon

Chapter 94 Secret Method

"award?"

Su Jing immediately became interested upon hearing about the reward. He had just thought of this, which was why he rushed to the virtual universe. After all, if he wanted to greatly improve his strength, there was indeed something that the Spirit Pattern God Lord could help with.

"What a reward! And it was personally approved by the great Spirit Pattern God Lord!" The white-haired elder said with a hint of envy. "The great Spirit Pattern God Lord also knows your background. After watching your combat videos, he found that your secret technique was not commensurate with your current strength, so he specially chose a powerful secret technique, also based on the law of lightning. As long as you cultivate this secret technique, your combat power can increase several times over!"

Secret technique!

Upon hearing that it was the secret technique he desired most, Su Jing couldn't hide his smile. This Spirit Pattern God Lord truly lived up to his reputation as an immortal powerhouse, immediately discerning what he needed most. Such a reward was simply a gift to his heart's content. What he lacked most right now was a powerful attack secret technique. After all, while his movement technique, the incomplete "Thunder Flash," wasn't far behind others, the cosmic-level secret technique "Nine Blades of Purple Lightning" was a hindrance, and he couldn't easily solve this problem. The Spirit Pattern God Lord truly understood him perfectly!

"Yes, a secret technique. The great Spirit Pattern God specially selected a set of secret techniques and corresponding weapons based on your conditions!"

The weapons are sent to Flowing Star via the Cosmic Galaxy Bank in reality. Just remember to sign for them!

"Next, all you have to do is focus on one thing: become stronger. There are still more than three years until the second stage of the Genius Battle. This is your best chance to overtake others. If you successfully enter the top 1,000 of the Genius Battle, the entire empire will be proud of you!" The white-haired old man said with some expectation, though only a little. After all, this step is too difficult. In the entire history of their Spirit Pattern Empire, there has never been a genius who could reach this level. That is the top 1,000 of the entire human race's Hengxing level. The difficulty is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. And now Su Jing only has a sliver of a chance. Whether he can seize it depends on Su Jing's own efforts. If he can improve his secret technique in three years, it might really be possible.

And weapons!

Su Jing was as excited as if a pie had fallen from the sky when he heard the news: the Spirit Pattern God Lord! The eternal god!

"Lord Edgar's reward is far too valuable—" Su Jing said with some "fear," after all, such a reward is absolutely unprecedented for a star-level being, even for a genius.

"Don't feel burdened. This is a reward from the great Spirit Pattern God, a reward for your great contributions. If you don't want to disappoint the great Spirit Pattern God, then just do your best to improve! The more talented you are, the further you go in the Genius Battle, the happier the great Spirit Pattern God will be!"

Although the white-haired old man envied Su Jing's reward, he also knew that Su Jing deserved it. He wished he could cultivate such a genius under his command. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Ryan standing to the side. This guy was really too lucky! He hadn't done anything and yet such a genius was born. If it weren't for Su Jing, how could the other party be qualified to act with him now? And now he had to admit that Ryan's status was no less than his own.

"My lord, I will certainly not let down the great Spirit Pattern God Lord's expectations. I will do my utmost to become stronger and go as far as I can in the Genius Battle!"

Su Jing quickly said that he hadn't expected such a reward. He had originally planned to bring it up himself to see if he could borrow some money from the Spirit Pattern God Lord to buy the secret technique, but now the Spirit Pattern God Lord had given him the reward in one go. It was incredibly kind!

I won't say any more. Once I've grown up, I'll definitely give the Spirit Pattern God Lord a big boost!

"As long as you have the will, keep striving to become stronger. Your talent is the best in our Spirit Pattern Empire. The God Lord is even looking forward to seeing if you can create a miracle!"

The white-haired old man smiled and said that he also had high hopes for Su Jing. Even if Su Jing did not enter the top 1,000, he would definitely be able to enter the Qianwu Secret Realm. There was no doubt about that, and the possibility of him growing up in the future was also very high.

"This is some information we've collected, including data from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom and some of the most outstanding geniuses from other universe kingdoms. Your focus should be on those other universe kingdoms. We're sending this to you along with the secret techniques bestowed by the God Lord."

As Edgar spoke, a screen appeared before his eyes, and he sent the contents of the screen to Su Jing. Upon hearing that there was information, Su Jing nodded. He did indeed need intelligence on the geniuses of other universe nations. He had to prepare early and know himself and his enemy so that he could control the overall situation during the battle and have a better chance of winning. If two people of similar strength had more information, they would have a better chance of winning.

"You're absolutely guaranteed to pass the first stage, no problem at all. So what you need to pay the most attention to are the top geniuses from other universe nations. You might encounter them in the second stage, and these are the people you need to be wary of."

Edgar the White-Haired explained that they had been collecting this information in the past, but they hadn't been able to use it much. Being able to enter the top 1,000 of the Qianwu Universe and represent the Universe Kingdom in the battle was already a genius among geniuses. After all, the Qianwu Universe Kingdom was too big, with more than 13,000 star fields under its command, of which nearly 1,000 were vassal states!

Not to mention that some of these countries are key vassal states and directly subordinate states, producing geniuses that are incomparable to other ordinary cosmic nations.

Compared to such a genius, other geniuses are simply no match.

"I will try my best." Su Jing nodded. After all, he still had a great advantage in this aspect. He could cultivate secret techniques in dungeons. As long as his laws improved, he could improve his secret techniques in dungeons. At that time, his strength could increase several times over.

"Work hard so that when you engage in the ultimate battle among the many cosmic nations, you will be able to better represent our Spirit Pattern Empire."

"This is an unprecedented arena for geniuses, do your best!" the silver-haired old man said expectantly.

"Mm." Su Jing nodded slightly.

After chatting about some other trivial matters, Edgar led his team away. They didn't want to disturb Su Jing's cultivation and improvement, since all their hopes were pinned on him.

After Edgar left, Su Jing could no longer hold back and immediately opened his email. The first thing he saw was the secret technique and resources that Jarvis had placed first: the secret technique "Thunderous Dawn"!

This is a secret technique for World Lords, compatible with the Thunderous Dawn Blade. It has nine levels, each more difficult than the last. Although it cannot compare to the Golden and Spatial Laws secret techniques like the Divine Weapon, it is still quite difficult. This secret technique is considered quite good among World Lords. The Spirit Pattern God Lord really put his heart into it!

He specifically chose the secret technique that best suited him. If he could cultivate it to the first level, he would definitely be ranked in the final battle of the genius tournament. If he cultivated it to the second level, being in the top 1,000 would be no problem at all, and he could have even greater ambitions.

After this leap, his secret techniques will no longer be a weakness in the genius battle. As long as he improves them, they can even become his strengths. As for whether he has the confidence to improve them...

There is no doubt about this. Secret techniques can be cultivated in dungeons, taking advantage of the time available there, resulting in extremely fast improvement. The only possibility is that the practitioner is stuck on comprehending the laws. Secret techniques require increasingly deeper understanding of the laws, and these laws cannot be comprehended in dungeons; they can only be comprehended in reality. How much improvement can be achieved in three years depends on the situation at that time.

Su Jing couldn't wait to enter the dungeon to learn the secret techniques, but he held back. He hadn't gotten his weapon yet, and it would be much easier to cultivate once it arrived. He estimated it would only take a few days.

Looking at the other data, which included information on geniuses from various universes, such as Ronan, a prodigy from the Golden Phoenix Universe Kingdom, who almost single-handedly wiped out an entire world region in the preliminaries and had a preliminary grasp of the laws of space, and Kingsley, from the Ice Prison Universe Kingdom, who displayed extremely powerful water elemental laws in the preliminaries and won first place in his world region, Su Jing breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, it was just as he had thought!

The level of this genius battle is average. The strongest one so far is Ronan, a genius who has just begun to grasp the laws of space!

Of course, he's generally comparing this to Luo Feng's generation, since there were too many geniuses in Luo Feng's class. Leaving Luo Feng aside, there was Bo Lan, who possessed a World Lord-level understanding of spatial laws; Rong Jun, who created his own secret techniques; Long Yun; Qian Shui; and the Prince of Manka Star—

Each one was more extraordinary than the last. If Ronan were in that generation now, he wouldn't be able to make any waves at all. No wonder countless strong people recognized that the genius battle of Luo Feng's generation was the strongest genius battle in tens of thousands of eras.

However, as relaxed as he may be, Ronan, who is ranked first, is definitely not weak. If he were to encounter Ronan now, he would have no chance of winning. It's just that there aren't as many powerful geniuses competing with him. The rest still require competition, and his current strength is far from sufficient.

After reviewing some information, Su Jing wasn't in a hurry to study it. Anyway, there were still three years left, and the information would be clearer after the arena battle. He exited the virtual universe and entered the long-awaited [Radiant Realm] dungeon to test his strength and see if he could find an opportunity to kill Hector.

While Su Jing was in seclusion improving his strength, in the virtual universe, Ryan and Franka sat facing each other. Ryan was now extremely grateful and respectful to Franka! Although Franka was just an ordinary universe-level being, his status had risen because of his son!

Having given birth to a peerless genius like Su Jing, Ryan no longer dared to underestimate Franka. Therefore, his interactions with Franka were very harmonious, addressing him as "Big Brother" and "Little Brother" repeatedly. He even entrusted several planets surrounding Flowing Star to Franka's management. While this might seem like a lot, Ryan clearly understood why he held such a position: keeping Su Jing firmly locked up here, preventing other cosmic nations from poaching him. Therefore, these few planets were insignificant; as long as Franka and his group remained, it was absolutely worthwhile. Moreover, because of Su Jing, the Spirit Pattern God Lord had bestowed upon him considerable rewards, each far exceeding the value of a few planets.

So his current efforts are nothing at all.

Three days later, the Thunderous Dawn Blade arrived, and Su Jing signed for it. Su Jing reached out and stroked the purple-gold battle blade, feeling an extreme coldness emanating from the metal. He could instinctively feel the compatibility between this weapon and himself. After all, the Thunderous Dawn Blade was specially crafted for world lords who had comprehended the laws of lightning, and now that Su Jing had also comprehended the laws of lightning, he could naturally feel the compatibility.

As a fifth-tier Force weapon, this Thunderous Dawnbreaker Blade is probably quite expensive. Although it can't compare to the Divine Weapon, it is definitely top-tier!

Su Jing kept all of this in mind, and he would naturally repay the favor when he had the strength in the future. Without hesitation, he memorized the secret technique, took the Thunderous Dawn Blade, selected the dungeon Dark Currents, and entered it.
