A Great Harvest: Insights Beneath the Sacred Monument Tower and Three Great Secret Tomes
Quiet room.
Yang Yu sat cross-legged, continuously digesting the profound mysteries of the laws that he had not yet fully comprehended.
Ten days have passed without us even realizing it.
"Hmm." Yang Yu opened his eyes and smiled slightly. "I've thoroughly understood what I've learned from the Sacred Monument, and I've also deciphered the Essence of Space Law. I've also reached the limit of my understanding of the Gold Law."
These past six months have been the six months in which Yang Yu has made the most rapid progress since leaving the Initial Universe.
Thanks to the Soul Devour Secret Technique that enhanced his soul strength and comprehension, as well as his two Clone reaching the level of World Lord, Yang Yu's cultivation efficiency was more than a thousand times that of ordinary geniuses in the Primal Secret Realm.
Furthermore, the Sacred Monument amplified the efficiency by approximately tenfold.
In the past six months, Yang Yu's experience was equivalent to an ordinary Domain Lord Level Primal Secret Realm genius comprehending for five thousand years!
Therefore, by comprehending the Gold Law to its ultimate state, one can also understand the Essence of Space Law, which has now reached its 106th level.
As I stepped out of the Cultivation Chamber, several shadows flashed by outside.
It was Lei En, Elder Turing, and others.
"Has Your Highness finished comprehending it?" Lei En asked as he walked over.
"Mm." Yang Yu nodded with a smile.
"Your Highness. I wonder how your comprehension went? Are you satisfied?" Elder Turing looked at Yang Yu, a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"Very good! The effect is excellent. I am very grateful to Elder Tuduo and Elder Turing." Yang Yu praised without reservation.
This cultivation session was indeed very effective. Yang Yu felt that his Gold Law had almost reached the level of the Tenth Floor of the Heavenly Bridge, and his Space Law had also reached the level of the eleventh level.
Most importantly, it greatly accelerated the process of analyzing the Essence of Space Law.
"Haha, that's good, that's good!" It was clear that Yang Yu was very satisfied, and Elder Turing immediately felt that this investment was the right one.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Elder Turing continued, "Your Highness, let's go to the Secret Tome Tower now to select a mystic book."
"OK."
Having experienced the surprise of the Sacred Monument Tower, Yang Yu now has a strong interest in the secret manuals accumulated by the Golden Horn Clan over countless years. It just so happens that the Demon Dragon Clone also needs more Secret Technique to enrich the Three Secret Techniques he comprehended from the Beast God phantom.
"It's rumored that many of the secret manuals within the Golden Horn Clan's Secret Tome Tower are unconventional and unorthodox. They might not even be found in our human treasure Treasure Vault, yet their power is no less formidable," Lei En chuckled. "Your Highness should choose carefully."
"Of course." Yang Yu nodded with a smile.
The Golden Horn Clan, which produced a powerful figure like Xiluo Duo, must possess a vast collection of Secret Technique, and their quality would certainly be high.
The top-tier secret manuals created by such beings can fetch astronomical prices in the Virtual Universe Company.
Fortunately, the Demon Dragon Clone can now choose three forms, which can greatly save Yang Yu from Points.
A moment later, Yang Yu and the others walked along the streets inside the Sacred Land to the front of the majestic white pagoda.
The entire Secret Tome Tower is about the same height as the Sacred Monument Tower, but its color is entirely white. At the same time, the entire tower exudes a calming aura, and approaching the Secret Tome Tower brings an unprecedented sense of peace to one's mind.
"It seems the materials used to build this Secret Tome Tower are quite extraordinary," Yang Yu thought to himself.
Yang Yu and the others then followed the steps, entered the main gate of the Secret Tome Tower, and arrived at the first floor of the Secret Tome Tower.
"This first floor is the reception area," Elder Turing explained from the side.
"Your Highness Yang Yu." A sharp, yet surprisingly pleasant voice rang out, and a tall, slender female Golden Horn Clan, dressed in light blue armor, walked over.
This woman from the Golden Horn Clan reminded Yang Yu of a stunningly beautiful wax figure, brimming with exotic charm.
The female Golden Horn Clan's lips curled up:
"Your Highness Yang Yu, my name is Gala, and I am the receptionist inside the Secret Tome Tower. We have received orders from the Your Highness Yang Yu' Elder God Palace that Your Highness may choose any three trial versions of the Secret Tome here. Once selected, we will provide Your Highness with the complete Secret Tome."
"And I will also be responsible for explaining everything to Your Highness, so that Your Highness can save time in making choices. After all, there are simply too many secret texts here. The entire Secret Tome Tower has 999 floors, and each floor contains millions of secret texts."
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Gala," Yang Yu said.
"Your Highness Yang Yu, then we will rest and wait here. You don't need to rush; you can take your time choosing," Elder Turing said.
"Mm." Yang Yu nodded.
"Let's go." Yang Yu looked at the female Golden Horn Clan Gala.
"I'll lead the way."
Gala walked beside Yang Yu, leading the way, and then the two quickly climbed the stairs to the second floor.
Yang Yu gasped upon seeing it. The second floor was incredibly spacious, with bookshelves spread out, each holding a book laid flat. Although the books were laid flat, the sheer size of the space meant that the bookshelves were seventy or eighty meters tall, resulting in an enormous number of books.
Judging from your scan, there are definitely over a million secret manuals on the entire second floor.
"So many per floor, and 999 floors at that?" Yang Yu sighed inwardly. "The sheer number of secret manuals accumulated by a single clan over countless years is truly astonishing."
Yang Yu glanced at them.
I noticed that each trial copy of the secret manual had a price listed next to it; for example, some manuals were worth 120 contribution points, while others were worth 388 contribution points.
"Your Highness Yang Yu," Gala explained from the side, "All the secret manuals in the Secret Tome Tower are allocated according to the number of contribution points. The most expensive manual on the first floor only costs 612 contribution points. The cheapest manual on the second floor also costs 612 contribution points. And so on, the higher you go, the more expensive it becomes!"
"How expensive is the 999th floor?" Yang Yu asked.
"The cheapest book on the 999th floor costs around 98 million contribution points, while the most expensive costs 1.6 billion contribution points," Gala said. "Of course, Your Highness Yang Yu, you can choose any three books."
"Oh?" Yang Yu's eyes lit up. "Then let's go straight to the 999th floor!"
Having spent so much time at the Virtual Universe Company, Yang Yu naturally knew that the price of the secret manual was equivalent to its value.
The more expensive, the better!
"Uh..." Gala hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, but then quickly smiled again, "No problem, Your Highness."
The two then went directly to the 999th floor of the Secret Tome Tower.
There is also a dedicated guard at the entrance to this floor.
"Your Highness Yang Yu." The elderly guard bowed slightly.
Yang Yu smiled and nodded.
This old man was an immortal being, and the aura he exuded was quite powerful.
"Your Highness Yang Yu," the old man said, pointing to the surrounding bookshelves, "The 999th floor is the highest floor of the entire Secret Tome Tower. All the most precious trial editions of our clan's secret scriptures are here. There are a total of 128,120 trial editions of secret scriptures on the 999th floor. Your Highness is free to browse and choose as you wish."
"Um."
As Yang Yu walked past the bookshelves, a woman from the Golden Horn Clan Gala beside him said, "Your Highness, the secret manuals are arranged in a spiraling pattern from the entrance of this staircase. The further in you go, the more contribution points you need to exchange for each manual. The one placed on the very top shelf in the corner is the most expensive one in the entire 999 floors."
Gala pointed to the distant top to her right.
"Oh?" Yang Yu smiled, then his entire body levitated and flew towards that direction.
The bookshelves range in height from 60 to 90 meters, and the display of sample copies of the secret manuals is quite spacious, much more so than the second and third shelves that Yang Yu saw, since this shelf only has nearly 130,000 secret manuals in total.
Yang Yu flew through the bookshelves, finally reaching the top of the bookshelf in the left front corner.
"Hmm?" Yang Yu glanced over.
The price of the secret scriptures on this bookshelf is significantly higher. This 80-meter-tall bookshelf only holds three scriptures, making it the bookshelf with the fewest books on any other bookshelf.
And the prices listed next to these three sample copies of the secret manuals are also the most expensive.
The top book is priced at '1.68 billion', the next one at '1.62 billion', and the one below that is '1.6 billion'!
"Tsk tsk." Yang Yu hovered at the top of the bookshelf and picked up the most expensive trial edition of the secret manual. The entire trial edition seemed to be cast from Exotic Metal.
"A secret manual forged from F-grade Metal? That's quite luxurious."
Yang Yu smiled and sighed, then picked up the massive metal tome weighing about two tons.
The cover is printed with the words "Golden Soul".
It is a secret manual that focuses on describing the Gold Origin Law.
Yang Yu was somewhat surprised that the manual, which only focused on describing a single Low-level Law, was actually the most valuable secret in this area.
Even according to the common knowledge within the current Primal Universe, comprehending a single Low-level Law would only allow one to break through and become an ordinary immortal.
Only by fully comprehending time or space can one become Venerable.
Of course, it is very easy to comprehend the single Lower Origin Laws such as metal, wood, and water at the beginning.
Taking that final step is extremely difficult, which is why so many World Lord never manage to break through to immortality, even until their deaths.
The final step is extremely difficult. However, simply gaining recognition from the Gold Origin Law is much easier.
On the contrary, because one needs to pass through the 21st level of the spatial Heavenly Bridge to be considered to have comprehended the Space Law, gaining the Law Recognition of space is thousands of times more difficult than comprehending the entire Gold Law. After all, to gain the recognition of the Origin Law, one must fully comprehend one aspect of the law to its limit.
For example...
Can Teleportation!
Space Blockade!
Or perhaps Space Strangulation!
In short, gaining Law Recognition of space is extremely difficult; such a powerful individual is at least King Level Immortal.
But Yang Yu is no ordinary person. Having read the Original Work and possessing the Thunder Inheritance, he is well aware that each single law contains incredible potential.
Unexpectedly, Xiluo Duo of the Golden Horn Clan also unconsciously moved in this direction.
It is truly a pity that Xiluo Duo perished. If he had continued his research, perhaps the Golden Horn Clan could have become a powerful race in the Primal Universe, or even the fifth Peak Race.
But history has no "what ifs," and Yang Yu could only sigh in this way, while reminding himself that he needed to be more careful and cautious in his actions.
With these thoughts in mind, Yang Yu began to peruse the <Golden Soul> manual.
As Yang Yu read on, he learned that this secret manual mainly started with the Gold Law and then delved into the Space Law. By combining the two, it created Secret Technique with extremely terrifying offensive power.
Therefore, this is a Secret Technique purely for combat, similar to the Tearing the Sky Secret Technique created by the Demon Dragon Clone, and not an auxiliary Secret Technique for guiding Comprehend Laws.
Just like the secret manuals such as the <Shadow Codex> and <Black Hole Evolution> in the Virtual Universe Company's Treasure Vault, they are purely combat-related Secret Technique. They simply explain how to fight and how to enhance combat power.
The <Time True Explanation> and <Lightning Canon> that Yang Yu exchanged are auxiliary Secret Technique that help people better Comprehend Laws and aid in understanding the <Thunder Chaos Monument>. They belong to two different styles.
One is 'research-oriented', and the other is 'combat-oriented'.
The two are complementary.
Combat-related Secret Technique can increase combat power, while research-related Secret Technique can help practitioners improve their Law Comprehension more quickly.
The Combat Secret Technique in <Golden Soul> are divided into 72 types, from low to high.
The first to the 35th Combat Secret Technique are those that can be used by those below the Immortal level.
The 36th to 70th Secret Technique are those that can be used by those below the level of Universe Venerable after becoming an Immortal.
The 71st and 72nd Secret Technique can only be performed by beings at the Universe Venerable level.
"If one could comprehend the 35th Combat Secret Technique at the World Lord Level, could one completely kill an ordinary Immortal? Comparable to Marquis Level Immortal?"
Yang Yu looked at the secret manual and nodded in satisfaction. Although the Demon Dragon Clone could now rival the Combat Power of an immortal, that was because of its profound foundation, with a basic Gene Level 666 times higher, as well as the transformation of its Soul Power and right hoof claw. The combat enhancement brought by these was terrifying.
The power of the Sky Rending Claw Technique alone can only be described as excellent; it is far from enough to allow an ordinary human World Lord to kill an ordinary immortal with it, or to be comparable to being granted Marquis.
But <Golden Soul> can!
"If the Demon Dragon Clone learns the 35th Secret Technique, combined with its solid foundation, it's not impossible for its combat ability to rival that of King-level Immortal," Yang Yu thought with delight.
Moreover, the power of the Secret Technique is so great that it can help Yang Yu learn from its essence to improve his own combat system.
And most importantly, this is a complete set of Combat Secret Technique.
It can be used up to the Universe Venerable level.
"The Demon Dragon Clone currently possesses the Beast God Statue, the <Space-Time Essays>, and the <Floating Blood Secret Codex>, but these are all for assisting in comprehending the laws; the actual power of the Secret Technique used in combat is still only average."
Yang Yu pondered to himself, "Right now, when my Zhuliuyin Clone and Demon Dragon Clone have some free time, they are also creating and perfecting Secret Technique. Therefore, learning and mastering a top-tier combat Secret Technique like <Golden Soul> will help broaden my horizons and increase my inspiration."
"Yes, it's one of the candidates."
Yang Yu casually picked up the metal book and continued reading other secret manuals.
Yang Yu stood before a row of bookshelves, his invisible Mental Force spreading out as he simultaneously flipped through thousands of secret manuals. Each metal book was opened and read at the same time.
Brush.
I've read thousands of books.
Yang Yu Mental Force to close all the metal books and then continued to browse through the thousands of other secret texts below.
Seeing this, Gala's lips twitched involuntarily. "This Your Highness Yang Yu is really... treating this like a vegetable market."
Not long after.
Yang Yu carried the three metal books to the edge of the 999th floor where there were chairs, sat down, and placed the three metal books on the chairs.
"Your Highness Yang Yu," the female Golden Horn Clan Gala, approached with a smile, "Have you made your choice?" Her gaze swept across the room, and the first book she saw was <Golden Soul>, causing her to grit her teeth again. "You really did choose the most expensive one."
"That's about right, these three will do," Yang Yu said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Gala glanced at the three secret manuals and saw that they were <Golden Soul>, <Thirty-Six Layers of Yan Shen>, and <The Xiluo Duo's Sayings>.
The prices were 1.68 billion contribution points, 910 million contribution points, and 100 million contribution points, respectively.
