Swallowing the starry sky, my clones can evolve infinitely.

Chapter 96 Analyzes the Secret Techniques of the Eight Innate Beast Gods

"If it were up to me to choose, it would definitely be the second option."

At this point, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Initially, the company's senior management only gave some points and mixed units. I asked some powerful people to negotiate, and that's how the first and third plans came about."

Unexpectedly, the Lord of Chaos City personally intervened, which led to the plan of allowing the Immortal to choose any supreme treasure.

The "company executives" mentioned by the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom did not refer to those great cosmic lords. Cosmic lords generally do not handle company affairs; instead, numerous venerable beings manage them on their behalf.

Shen Mu had a headache. Although the treasure was precious, it could only be obtained after achieving immortality, and he was currently very short of money.

First, there's the cultivation of the Flame God Clan's Amplification Secret Technique, "Flame God Battle Body," which requires approximately 100 billion points to reach perfection.

This price is already incredibly cheap. To cultivate Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast Inheritance Secret Technique "Original World" to 36 times its original level, it would require 10 billion points.

Moreover, and most importantly, the cultivation difficulty of "Yan Shen Battle Body" is not high. Similar amplitude-type secret techniques such as "Original World" and "Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body" not only require money, but are also extremely difficult to cultivate.

In the future, this Fiery God Clan clone will undoubtedly become my main battle clone, and I absolutely cannot neglect its cultivation resources.

It's important to understand that, aside from naturally occurring special life forms, the maximum increase in genetic strength for any species is a hundredfold.

Unless one breaks through to the realm of the Lord of the Universe, no matter how many rare treasures one possesses, the gene multiplier can only be one hundred.

But the Yan God Clan is an exception. This clan is the strongest life form in terms of physical evolution created by the God King Zuoshanke, possessing the potential to surpass perfect genes by more than ten thousand times.

Next comes cultivating the Star-Eating Grass. The strongest Immortal-grade Star-Eating Grass requires over a hundred billion resources to cultivate, making it a major consumer of points.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Mu looked at the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom and said, "Teacher, I do want to choose the second option, but the biggest problem now is that I don't have enough points, so I can't make a decision."

Upon hearing this, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom laughed and said, "It's not a big deal if we don't have enough points. Although your teacher is poor, he never lacks points. But if we abandon the second option because of this, it would be a loss."

"Tell me, how many points do you need?"

Shen Mu didn't stand on ceremony. Now that his teacher was helping him, he would just help his teacher pay off his debts in the future.

"Teacher, I need at least 110 billion points."

The cultivation of the Star-Eating Vine can be put on hold for now, and can wait until before I go to the outer battlefield for training. However, the cultivation of the Flame God Clan clone must be put on the agenda.

"110 billion points?" The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom looked at his little disciple with some surprise.

11 billion points is nothing to him, but what would a mere Domain Lord (World Lord) do to spend over 10 billion points?

However, the King of Qianwu Kingdom didn't ask any further questions and directly transferred the money to Shen Mu, saying, "These points are nothing to your master. You can repay me when you achieve the title of King and Immortal."

"This disciple thanks the teacher!"

Shen Mu was very fortunate to have become a disciple of a Venerable-level teacher. If it were just a King-level expert, even a True King would probably find it difficult to come up with 10 billion points in cash all at once.

……

The Primal Secret Realm, Wuchen Continent, within Shen Mu's territory.

In the past two days, spaceships have been making frequent trips to and from Shen Mu's territory, transporting various precious supplies.

Moreover, the escorting teams transporting the supplies were all elite squads composed of immortal gods, led by an immortal powerhouse at the Marquis level.

There was no other way; the main problem was that the supplies Shen Mu purchased were all too expensive. The supplies needed for cultivating body vibration-based secret techniques were inherently extremely precious.

Some of these supplies are so rare that even the discount privileges for members of the original zone cannot be used; they are truly rare treasures.

Deep within Shenmu's territory, inside a secluded meditation chamber crafted from F9-grade metal.

Shen Mu, dressed in white, sat upright on a futon, holding a triangular, prism-shaped, blood-red crystal in his hand, which was the Blood Crystal he had obtained from Luo Feng.

Then Shen Mu made a cut on his arm, allowing the blood-red crystal to come into contact with his own blood.

boom!

An extremely fierce intent erupted from the crystal, directly merging into Shen Mu's sea of ​​consciousness and impacting his awareness.

This is the obsession formed from the terrifying resentment and unwillingness that arose when the great beast god fell.

Although extremely weak, it is also incredibly fierce. If one cannot withstand the impact of such obsession, then the fusion will fail directly.

Outside, Shen Mu remained silent, his eyes calm and still. His mind and will were highly integrated, and his consciousness was incredibly solid, unshakable by the fierce obsession.

Boom!

A moment later, after Shen Mu completely suppressed the fierce thought that matched the image, strands of strange red threads suddenly emerged from the blood-red crystal and flowed into Shen Mu's body through the wound.

In the blink of an eye, as the red thread merged into Shen Mu's body, a terrifying pain spread throughout Shen Mu's entire body, as if countless sharp needles were ravaging his body.

During this process, Shen Mu's own genes, telomeres, and the mysterious red threads merged, and billions of cells throughout his body underwent transformation.

Pfft! Sizzle!

Hard lumps appeared beneath Shen Mu's skin, and then sharp parts pierced through the skin to reveal themselves as scales. For a moment, Shen Mu seemed to have transformed into a scaly human.

However, this special mutation only lasted for a few minutes before disappearing, and then other mutations occurred.

Countless dense, seven-colored spiral red hairs spread wildly from Shen Mu's pores. In the blink of an eye, Shen Mu seemed to be tainted by something eerie and ominous, transforming into a red-haired monster!

Similarly, this change only lasted for a few minutes before it began to subside, and a new change occurred.

During this process, Shen Mu was enduring extreme pain every moment. It felt as if all the cells in his body were being torn apart and crushed, then reorganized and integrated, only to be torn apart and crushed again in an endless cycle.

This kind of excruciating pain is far beyond what ordinary people can endure, but fortunately, Shen Mu's state of mind and will are now at a terrifying level, and physical pain alone can hardly shake Shen Mu's consciousness.

Even while enduring this intense pain, Shen Mu's consciousness was still able to control the Yan God Clan clone, cultivate amplitude-based secret techniques, devour the large amount of resources he had just purchased, and enhance his own combat power.

More than an hour later, as the Blood Crystal completely merged into Shen Mu's body, a terrifying aura burst forth from Shen Mu's body.

Boom!

A faint golden hue appeared on Shen Mu's skin, and golden light flickered in his pupils. At the same time, Shen Mu's aura surged to 24 times its previous level, making him resemble a domineering, peerless ferocious beast in human form.

"24 Blood Crystals, that's the limit I can currently fuse."

What troubled Shen Mu in fusing with the Blood Crystal was not the impact of the fierce intent, but the upper limit of the Blood Crystals that his body could fuse with.

This is simply a matter of physical aptitude, which is difficult to change.

Fortunately, during the inheritance of the Purgatory God General, Shen Mu consumed a Blood God Fruit, which altered his genetic traits, making him more compatible with the Blood Crystal. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to fuse with 24 Blood Crystals.

"Human beings on Earth are still too physically inadequate."

Both being beings with the same genetic makeup, the Yan Shen Clan clone has now fused with more than 20 Blood Crystals. It should be noted that the Yan Shen Clan clone had never obtained a similar opportunity as the Blood God Fruit before.

Shen Mu shook his head slightly, then his gaze fell on the Blood Crystal in his palm.

"I wonder what kind of life this Beast God was, that even in its fall it left behind endless opportunities."

Shen Mu sighed slightly, saying that this situation was similar to a whale fall on Earth, where the saying "one whale falls and all things are born" applies to this situation.

Suddenly, a thought struck Shen Mu, and his gaze toward the Blood Crystal became intense.

Within his inner world, the Azure Dragon clone, whose consciousness was immersed in the vast ocean of laws, suddenly snapped back to reality, and then a blood-red crystal appeared out of thin air in front of him.

hold head high!

With a resounding dragon's roar, the Azure Dragon clone swallowed the blood-red crystal whole.

"Analyze... the secret method!"

Boom!

The entire inner world trembled slightly, and then the hidden chaotic patterns on Shen Mu's original core reappeared, intertwining and spreading.

Then Shen Mu sensed that the Blood Crystal, which had been swallowed by the Azure Dragon clone, was being broken down by an invisible force.

Immediately afterward, a message was relayed to Shen Mu.

"Analysis of the genetic information of the special life form, the Golden Beast God, is underway... It is estimated to take 10.4 years."

Outside, Shen Mu suddenly opened his eyes and gasped.

"It actually...can the Blood Crystal be used to analyze the innate secret techniques of a born beast god!"

Shen Mu was somewhat intrigued and couldn't help but wonder just how powerful the Golden Void Beast God's innate secret technique was.

A being born with perfect genes must at least possess the strongest secret technique of the so-called Lord of the Universe, right? After all, even if a being achieves perfect genes later in life, they would still receive the strongest secret technique as a reward from the original universe.

"A resolution time of 10 years is a bit long."

But thinking about it, it makes sense. You have to understand that the object being analyzed is the Lord of the Universe, who has crossed several major realms. The amount of information contained in his genes is absolutely terrifying. This time is not long.

Shen Mu pondered for a moment and decided to analyze it first. If there really were some heaven-defying secret techniques, then he would have made a profit.

Anyway, I can analyze all kinds of secret techniques at will. As long as I don't fixate on a particular secret technique, it won't take up a spot.

Even if the secret techniques of the Beast God are exceptionally powerful, one can choose to solidify them at the Immortal level, without necessarily having to remain at the World Lord level for 100,000 years.

Now that he has reached the level of a World Lord, it's time to put the selection of the remaining two clones on the agenda.

The Blood Sea clone definitely needs to reserve a spot; its enormous divine body size determines everything. Unrestricted burning of divine power is almost equivalent to an invincible buff after reaching the Immortal level!

As for the remaining clone, information about various special life forms surfaced in Shen Mu's mind, but ultimately settled on the World Tree.

"This World Tree clone... perhaps it's not entirely hopeless!"

Shen Mu clearly remembered that the strength of the clones that the Golden Horned Beast clan could create depended on the limits of their inner world.

The more powerful the inner world, the higher the level of genetic material it can nurture into clones. The size of the inner world, in turn, depends on the hardness of the pronucleus.

Of course, this is not only a limitation of the Golden Horned Beast's clone technique, but also a limitation of almost all clone techniques in the primordial universe.

As for why it's said to be "almost," it's because there are always some exceptionally fortunate individuals who possess extraordinary and unique life forms as their avatars. Examples include the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master of the human race and the Sinking Fire Lord of the Demon Alliance.

In the original story, Luo Feng failed to nurture the World Tree. At that time, the diameter of his inner world reached 100 million kilometers, which was the limit of the Golden Horned Beast race, and also the limit of all races except for special life forms.

However, Luo Feng later achieved a perfect life with ten thousand times the genetic potential, received the innate secret techniques bestowed by the primordial universe, and his original core was baptized, with the diameter of his inner world reaching one trillion kilometers, the limit of the universe.

If the World Tree were to be nurtured within a world spanning a trillion kilometers, there would be no reason for it to fail.

"The World Tree clone can perfectly compensate for my Law talent, and any talent secret technique starting from the World Lord level can be a combat-type secret technique rather than a function-type secret technique."

"Moreover, the innate secret technique for controlling space and time is truly not weak. Even after reaching the realm of the Lord of the Universe, one can still make their control over space and time far surpass that of other experts at the same level."

A moment later, a wisp of Shen Mu's consciousness connected to the virtual universe and went to pay his respects to the master of the Qianwu Kingdom once again.

……

Virtual universe, Qianwu Continent, atop the magnificent divine mountain.

Shen Mu respectfully greeted the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, and then said, "Teacher, as far as I know, this Blood Crystal is a treasure born from the place where the naturally born golden beast god fell."

"Then surely there should be similar treasures at the places where the other seven innate beast gods perished?"

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom smiled and nodded, saying, "That's true. However, our human race only possesses one secret realm born from the fall of a beast god, which is the Blood Luo World."

There are only eight secret realms in the entire universe that were born from the fall of the Beast Gods, and it is already difficult for humans to master even one of them.

Upon hearing this, Shen Mu quickly said, "Teacher, I wish to purchase seven other treasures similar to Blood Crystal. I only need one of each. I hope you can help me!"

Upon hearing this, the King of Qianwu Kingdom seemed to have guessed what Shen Mu was thinking and said, "Disciple, you are unaware of the truth. Now that you have reached the limit of fusing the Blood Crystal, you will also be unable to fuse the other seven treasures."

Seeing that the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom had misunderstood, Shen Mu explained, "Master, you have misunderstood. This disciple has other wonderful uses for these seven treasures."

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom was somewhat puzzled, but he didn't ask any further questions. He was certain that his youngest disciple possessed a great secret; otherwise, he couldn't possibly have such a talent for the laws of nature.

"Since you need it, I can help you apply for one of each, it shouldn't be a problem, but of course the price will definitely not be low."

Over the long course of history, the human race has undoubtedly seized the other seven types of Beast God Crystals from its treasure trove, though in small quantities. However, due to their rarity, these crystals are much more valuable than Blood Crystals.

The effects are basically the same as Blood Crystal, the only difference is that it enhances different law talents, such as Blood Crystal which enhances the two major law talents of gold and space.

However, the effect of improving the laws is so-so, it's better to choose other treasures of the same price that specifically improve the laws talent.

……

Half a month later, in Shen Mu's territory.

"Your Highness, these are the treasures you purchased. You need to sign for them in person."

The captain of the escort team transporting the treasures was an immortal deity. Although these crystals were not expensive, they were strategic resources that could not be traded at will and were subject to extremely strict supervision.

"it is good."

Shen Mu took the specially made silver briefcase, then extended a wisp of his mental energy into it for testing.

Click!

The verification was successful. The suitcase was opened, revealing seven blood-red crystals of different shapes, each with a faint, shimmering glow.

"That's right, thank you all for your hard work."

Shen Mu signed for the treasures according to the rules and procedures, and then immediately returned to his secluded meditation room to send the seven treasures into his inner world.

"Analysis of the genetic information of the special life form, the Wood Beast God, is underway... It is estimated to take 10.4 years."

"Analysis of the genetic information of the special life form, the Water Beast God, is underway... It is estimated to take 10.4 years."

……

"Analysis of the genetic information of the special life form, the Beast God of Light, is underway... It is estimated to take 10.4 years."
