Swallowing the Stars, I am the Lord of the Galaxy

Xingchen's eyes lit up: "A good talent technique! Although it may not improve combat ability much, it will be of great benefit to further improving the genetic level."

A ripple of emotion stirred within him.

It seems that Master Chaos City has quite a talent for the divine body path!

Based on this, the teacher should have the potential to reach at least the first level of divine body in the future!

The Chaos City Lord nodded: "Exactly. I plan to continue my seclusion, striving to break through the limitations of the perfect gene and reach a level beyond the perfect gene."

Xingchen nodded.

"Yes, teacher, your innate secret technique is very advantageous for cultivating the divine body, so it may not be impossible to reach the third level of the divine body."

In the 321st era, the miniature universe of the star trembled once more. The star, who was comprehending the mysteries of the divine body, opened its eyes, a smile appearing on its lips.

"Engineer Peng has also made a breakthrough."

The primordial will of the universe descended once more, and then everyone stepped forward to offer their congratulations.

Congratulations, Engineer Peng!

"Another perfect gene!"

"Our human race is thriving!"

Everyone stepped forward to offer their congratulations. Master Peng exclaimed, "Thanks to the legacy of the stars, I have seen a new path."

His innate secret technique, "All Trees Share the Same Origin," is also highly beneficial to the cultivation of the divine body, as it can simulate the genetic structure of various plant life forms.

In the 323rd era, the Lord of Darkness's breakthrough once again caused a sensation. This powerful figure, who had been shrouded in black robes for many years, finally revealed his true form, his entire being like a black hole, devouring the surrounding light.

"Darkness, what kind of secret technique is this innate ability of yours?"

"The Lord of False Gold asked curiously."

The Lord of Darkness smiled slightly, raising his hand to condense a ball of pitch-black energy: "'Shadow, unfortunately, it's an offensive type, better than nothing.'"

Everyone was amazed. Each powerful individual who broke through to the perfect gene level acquired a unique talent technique.

In the years that followed, breakthroughs and good news kept coming:

In the 357th era, the Lord of Dragons broke through;

In the 402nd era, the Lord of Qingdong broke through;

In the 489th era, the Lord of the Desolate Mirror broke through...

Each breakthrough by a Universe Lord increases the overall strength of the human race. Within the mini-universes of the stars, the number of individuals with perfect genes has already exceeded double digits.

"It seems my decision was right."

Xingchen stood above the Milky Way, looking down at the people who were cultivating.

"Sharing the heritage with the clan can indeed create more strong individuals."

What pleased him most was that Coty's progress was in no way inferior to that of the cosmic masters.

Although his progress in genetic level is slow because he hasn't broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, Coty's research on the divine body path is by no means weak. Once he breaks through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, he will be able to rapidly improve his genetic level.

……

In the 323,650th epoch, an unprecedented energy fluctuation suddenly erupted within the miniature universe of a star.

Xingchen, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, and his twelve-light-year-long Star River Divine Body trembled slightly.

"This is……"

The star's gaze pierced through the void in an instant, locking onto the area where the Chaos City Lord was cultivating. There, an astonishing energy storm was raging, and the Chaos City Lord's body was like a bottomless pit, frantically devouring the surrounding energy.

"10082 times the genetic level!"

A sharp light flashed in Xingchen's eyes.

"The teacher actually broke through the limitations of perfect genes so quickly!"

The entire miniature universe trembled. All the powerful cultivators who were in the process of cultivation were awakened and stared in shock at this scene.

"Chaos has broken through!"

"That's only a little over 300,000 epochs!"

"too fast!"

The figure of the Chaos City Lord floated in the void, surrounded by mysterious law runes.

His divine body is undergoing a qualitative change, and every inch of his skin is radiating an aura that surpasses perfection.

Xingchen flashed to the side of the Chaos City Lord and carefully sensed the fluctuation: "Teacher, congratulations."

The Lord of Chaos City slowly opened his eyes, his gaze seemingly reflecting a galaxy in reverse: "Star, I finally understand the mystery of the 'divine body route' you spoke of. After breaking through to perfect genes, the very essence of life is being sublimated."

The Lord of Darkness's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Chaos, how are you feeling now?"

The Lord of Chaos City felt the surging power within him: "Unprecedentedly powerful. I feel... I can now attempt to break through to the True God realm."

These words were like a bombshell, exploding in everyone's hearts.

Chapter 233 Developing Ethnic Groups

Xingchen shook his head: "Teacher, I suggest you wait a bit longer. Your current breakthrough is no different from a breakthrough along the ordinary law path. With your talent, it's entirely possible for you to reach the 30,000-fold gene level. At that time, your potential will be even greater."

The Lord of Chaos City pondered for a moment, then nodded solemnly: "You're right. In that case, I will continue my cultivation."

He looked around at his expectant kin: "My fellow human beings, my breakthrough proves that this path is feasible. As long as we persevere, our human race will surely usher in an unprecedented era of glory!"

A fierce fighting spirit ignited in everyone's eyes. The Chaos City Lord's success gave everyone immense confidence.

Xingchen watched this scene, his heart filled with countless emotions. He knew that from this moment on, humanity had truly embarked on an unprecedented path. The future格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall structure or pattern) of the cosmos would inevitably be changed because of the choices made today!

"I should also step up my efforts."

Xingchen murmured to himself. His divine body's genetic level had reached 17650 times, not far from the threshold of 30,000 times.

……

Time passed slowly, and several more eras went by.

Within the miniature universe of stars—

Koti stood before the stars, his expression resolute: "Teacher, I feel I have encountered a bottleneck on the path to divine body. I wish to return to the Ancestral God Cult to seek an opportunity for a breakthrough."

Starry Sky gazed at his most prized disciple and slowly nodded: "Your choice is correct. The path of divine power requires accumulation; blindly cultivating will backfire. Moreover, since you have not yet broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, there are still many limitations to your cultivation."

He raised his hand and waved it, and five dazzling rays of light floated in the void:

A miniature palace entirely crimson;

A suit of armor with flowing patterns;

A battle sword with intricate patterns engraved on its blade;

A magnificent panorama of a realm, as dazzling as a nebula;

A crystal containing a vast primordial power.

"These are what your teacher prepared for you."

The voice of the stars was gentle yet powerful.

"The supreme palace-type treasure 'Star River Palace' can withstand the full force of a universe lord's attack; the supreme treasure armor 'Starshine Armor'... and this supreme primordial treasure 'Source Heart Crystal' can quickly restore divine power."

Koti's eyes widened, his breathing becoming rapid. This treasure set was top-tier even in the entire primordial universe!

"Teacher, this..."

Although he was already used to his teacher's generosity, he was still incredibly shocked every time.

These are all top-quality treasures.

If this were taken out, even the rulers of the entire universe would go crazy.

Xingchen chuckled lightly: "Take it. With your current strength, combined with this supreme treasure, you'll be able to roam freely in the primordial universe. Even the strongest being in the universe would have to put in a lot of effort to kill you."

He paused, his tone becoming serious: "Remember, if you encounter danger, immediately hide in the Star River Palace and contact me through the virtual universe. Within the primordial universe, I can arrive in an instant."

Koti solemnly knelt on one knee and accepted the treasure with both hands: "Your disciple will remember your teachings!"

Xingchen smiled.

"Alright, don't get too excited yet. I also have expectations for you."

Coty nodded in agreement.

"Teacher, please tell me."

Xingchen spoke directly.

"I want you to kill a Universe Lord before you break through to the Universe Lord level. Can you do that?"

Coty was taken aback for a moment, then nodded firmly.

"can!"

His words were resolute. His teacher had given him so many treasures. If he couldn't even kill a universe master, wouldn't he be letting his teacher down?

If he can't do it, then Coty doesn't deserve this treasure!

When Coty left the miniature universe, he was completely transformed. The aura of a supreme treasure was restrained, yet it caused his combat power to surge several levels.

"With this supreme treasure, I will have the power to fight even a true universe master! I must kill a universe master while still at the Venerable Realm!"

Koti's eyes gleamed with confidence.

Xingchen watched his disciple leave, a slight smile playing on his lips.

This set of treasures was meticulously crafted by him, each piece incorporating his unique understanding of the laws. Even if the strongest being in the universe were to intervene, it would take time to break through the Star River Palace's defenses, giving him enough time to rush to its rescue.

He has done everything he could, and Coty's fate has been greatly changed. Hopefully, he can break through to become the Lord of the Universe soon.

Star Palace Headquarters.

Elena stood respectfully in the center of the hall, gazing at the figure seated high on the throne of stars.

"Palace Master, you summoned me?"
