Nine Sword Venerable's Regret (Part Two)
"Although the Clone Talent is incredibly powerful, it's still possible for them to perish!"
The Lord of Longxing solemnly warned, "Given your current situation, although your willpower is still quite good, any Immortal God skilled in Soul Attack could annihilate all your Clone with Soul Attack!"
"Moreover, even I myself cannot guarantee that I will not perish! Therefore, even if you possess the Clone Technique, you must always maintain a sense of awe towards the universe!"
"Disciple understands!" Yang Wu said respectfully.
Since he came into this world, too many people have told Yang Wu about this.
Jinguang Marquis, the Nine Sword Venerable, and now the Lord of Longxing!
"Hmm." The Lord of Longxing waved his hand and said, "You all go. Yang Wu, come see me again when you have reached the level of King Level Immortal Law Comprehension the laws!"
Because Yang Wu chose the Star Bead, the Lord of Longxing also slightly changed his requirements.
After all, now that Yang Wu has fused with the 'Star Bead,' breaking through to Immortal has become extremely difficult.
"Yes, teacher!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.
"This disciple takes his leave!" Nine Sword Venerable bowed in return.
Wow!
Yang Wu and the Nine Sword Venerable disappeared simultaneously, and then reappeared in the vast cosmic starry sky Qiulong Palace.
"Let's go, I'll send you back to the Primal Secret Region!" the Nine Sword Venerable said calmly. With a wave of his hand, Yang Wu and the other person immediately appeared inside the Big Fish-shaped Spaceship.
Qiulong Palace, the Lord of Longxing's gaze seemed to transcend time and space.
As he watched Yang Wu and the Nine Sword Venerable depart, he thought to himself, "I hope that soon, a new powerhouse will emerge from among our Human Race!"
The Lord of Longxing rose to power in the early days of the Primal Universe, when humanity was just a powerful race with a pitifully small territory and extremely rare secret techniques and treasures.
Later, under the leadership of an exceptionally talented genius, the Human Race gradually became the pinnacle of the universe, eventually standing shoulder to shoulder with other major pinnacle races, and even completely suppressing all other races.
Unfortunately, the peerless figure who led Human Race to its peak was accidentally sealed away, and humanity lost its former dominance.
As Human Race continues to develop, the mechanisms for cultivating geniuses are becoming increasingly sophisticated.
Like the various opportunities found in Universe Level secret realms, like the countless energies that can be used to freely enhance one's physical abilities, like the various reward points...
Even a powerful clan, with all its might, could only nurture so many of these resources.
But the Human Race has been continuously cultivating geniuses!
If a Universe Master can emerge over endless years, then the investment of these resources will not have been in vain; if a pinnacle being in the universe can emerge, the Human Race will have gained immensely; and if another genius can emerge to lead the Human Race to rise again, then the Human Race will be able to reach its peak once more!
"I wonder if, in the future, another figure like the 'Primal Original Ancestor' will emerge from among my Human Race?" the Lord of Longxing thought to himself.
Only those who have experienced that arduous period of pioneering can truly understand the significance of a supreme being to a people!
The giant fish-shaped spaceship travels at more than 100 times the speed of light in the Dark Universe.
Inside the spacecraft control room.
"Yang Wu!" the Nine Sword Venerable couldn't help but say, "Do you know how difficult it is to break through the shackles and reach Immortal after fusing with that Star Bead?"
"Even the most extraordinary geniuses among us humans, those who can conquer the Heavenly Mountain the World Lord Level, most of them cannot break free from the shackles of the Star Bead and ultimately have to Possession!"
"In this way, not only will a lot of resources be wasted, but all of our own accumulated resources will also be abandoned!"
"I admit that your ability to become Black Warrior is extremely rare among our Human Race! However, even with the Black Warrior's enhancement, your Law Comprehension is still somewhat inferior to those peerless geniuses!"
"Alas!" Nine Sword Venerable sighed and said, "Actually, the Origin Bead is quite good for you. There are very few Special Lifeform forms in the universe whose genes are more than a thousand times stronger. You don't need to choose the Star Bead at all!"
In the eyes of the Nine Sword Venerable, although Yang Wu's current Law Comprehension the laws has not yet reached the level of the most outstanding human geniuses, if he spends more time, breaking through the shackles of the Origin Bead in the future should not be too much of a problem.
However, if one wants to break free from the constraints of the Star Bead and become Immortal, the requirements are far too high!
Leaving aside the Law Comprehension, there are some shortcuts to the Amplitude Secret Technique, but the secret technique itself...
It's important to understand that even most of the Universe Venerable only use Peak Secret Technique!
Creating an Ultimate Secret Technique using Immortal Level Law Comprehension is virtually impossible.
Since the birth of the universe, there have only been three World Lord among the Human Race who have been able to create Ultimate Secret Technique!
Even among Immortal God with eternal lifespans, only a few dozen can create Ultimate Secret Technique!
Among these people, apart from those who perished unexpectedly and could not be resurrected, the others had already broken through to a higher realm.
As for the current 100,000 King Level Immortal among humankind, none of them have yet been able to create the Ultimate Secret Technique.
"Teacher!" Yang Wu said respectfully, "This disciple has now been able to pass the Tenth Layer of the Heavenly Bridge!"
Yang Wu knew that the Nine Sword Venerable was saying these things entirely for his own good, so he felt no dissatisfaction whatsoever. Instead, he directly revealed that his Law Comprehension had reached the Tenth Layer of the Heavenly Bridge.
"The Tenth Layer?" The Nine Sword Venerable was slightly taken aback, then quickly asked, "You have already comprehended nine of the 72 most difficult essences?"
Under normal circumstances, the third picture on the Nine Universes Chaos Stele corresponds to the seventh to ninth levels of the Heavenly Bridge to Heaven.
However, if one takes the path of analyzing the Law Essence, then the final 72 Space Essence correspond to the Tenth Layer to the Twelfth levels of the Heavenly Bridge.
If you comprehend the nine most difficult Space Essence, you can pass the Tenth Layer; if you comprehend 27, you can pass the eleventh level; and if you comprehend 72, you can pass the Twelfth level of the Heavenly Bridge.
"Yes!" Yang Wu replied respectfully.
In fact, even before the last simulation, Yang Wu had already grasped the Law Essence.
This is because Yang Wu chose the Martial Arts Realm during the last simulation and did not receive the Martial Arts Comprehension reward.
"Incredible! I never expected that after leaving Chaos City, your speed not only didn't slow down, but actually increased!" Nine Sword Venerable exclaimed.
Even among the current human geniuses at the Domain Lord Level, only about thirty can pass through the Tenth Layer of the Heavenly Bridge!
Yang Wu is currently only at the Universe Level! Even the most heaven-defying Universe Level Heavenly Mountain only requires the Twelfth level of the Heavenly Bridge to Law Comprehension.
The Heavenly Bridge is divided into three stages, and although there is a difference Tenth Layer and the Twelfth stages, the hope is still quite high!
What the Nine Sword Venerable didn't know was that, for Yang Wu, who had the help of Simulator, the Initial Universe, with its extremely slow time flow, was indeed not a good place.
"With your current speed of Law Comprehension, coupled with the enhancement of the Black Warrior, you are already barely comparable to the most outstanding geniuses in human history! If you add the assistance of your Clone in the future, there is still a sliver of hope to break the shackles of the Star Bead!"
The Nine Sword Venerable looked at Yang Wu with utmost seriousness and encouraged him, "However, you must not slack off in the slightest!"
"Disciple understands!" Yang Wu said respectfully.
Then Yang Wu couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, I remember that Lord of Longxing just said that your luck has been a bit bad?"
Yang Wu naturally held the Nine Sword Venerable in the highest esteem. Aside from the numerous guidances he had received previously, if the Nine Sword Venerable hadn't brought him to see the Lord of Longxing, he probably wouldn't have had any chance of obtaining the Star Bead, such an opportunity to create Clone.
Therefore, Yang Wu took it to heart when the Lord of Longxing mentioned the Nine Sword Venerable.
At this time, there was still some time before Yang Wu successfully fused the Star Bead, and the spaceship was flying in the Dark Universe.
So, upon hearing Yang Wu's question, the Nine Sword Venerable sighed and slowly recounted a story from his past.
"Yang Wu, you should understand that the stronger a martial artist is, the more difficult it becomes to improve," the Nine Sword Venerable sighed. "The same treasure might be effective against World Lord Level, but for Immortal, its effect might be negligible!"
Yang Wu nodded to himself.
Just like Muya Crystal, who initially attracted a group of Councilor to pursue her on Earth.
A single Muya Crystal is enough to allow a ninth-level apprentice martial artist to break through to the Planetary Level; however, for Planetary Level martial artist, the greatest use of the Muya Crystal is merely to assist in cultivation; once one reaches the Star Level, the Muya Crystal has no effect on the evolution of the body.
"Like the Domain Lord Level Bloodline Potion you once used, although it is extremely rare in the universe, there are always desperate people who make and sell it, and the price is only a little over a hundred Hunyuan Unit. Any Immortal God can easily come up with this wealth!"
"But why is it that the genes of most Immortal Life Gene among humans are still the same as those of ordinary life forms in the universe?"
"Because a Domain Lord Level Bloodline Potion can alter the Life Gene of a Planetary Level or Star Level martial artist, but at the Universe Level, it only has the effect of promoting cultivation. As for anything above the Universe Level, it has absolutely no effect!"
Yang Wu was taken aback.
No wonder most of the geniuses at the Virtual Universe Company have mediocre genes; it turns out that the Domain Lord Level Bloodline Potion has lost its effect on Universe Level powerhouses.
At this moment, Yang Wu felt immense gratitude towards his teacher, Jinguang Marquis!
Given Jinguang Marquis's status, it's highly likely he wouldn't know about Gene Multiplier, but by sheer chance, Yang Wu unexpectedly gained a valuable opportunity.
As for the relatives of powerful beings, they can certainly use even more precious Bloodline Potion at the Star Level, but the probability of a genius emerging from among them is much smaller!
Just like the Nightmare King Yanzhu, the son of the Venerable Shi Huo, whose Life Gene were enhanced a hundredfold by the Venerable Shi Huo with treasures, he most likely also received the Divine General Inheritance, and at least had a top- Heavy Treasure to protect him, but in the end he was only at the Elementary King Level.
With such external conditions, any genius from the Primal Secret Region of the Virtual Universe Company could at least reach the Peak King Level combat power!
Therefore, even if someone with a powerful background has used a Domain Lord Level Bloodline Potion at the Star Level, they will not ultimately see much benefit. On the other hand, geniuses without a background simply cannot learn about such matters at the Star Level, nor do they have the means to purchase Domain Lord Level Bloodline Potion.
Yang Wu continued listening.
"And the Xueluo Crystal and Star Bead you fused with are in the same situation!"
"Before Immortal, one can fuse with Xueluo Crystal, but after becoming Immortal, one can only use the more precious Blood of the Beast God! As for the Star Bead, it can only be used before reaching the Domain Lord Level, because it needs to be fused with the Singularity born within the body when breaking through to the Domain Lord Level!"
"As for geniuses at the Domain Lord Level and World Lord Level, the only way to obtain the Clone Talent is through Possession! Besides that, there is another, even more difficult path!"
"Once you break through to Immortal, the only way to obtain Clone is through the most difficult path—receiving a gift from the origin of the Primal Universe. To receive this gift, you must possess an extremely heaven-defying method to gain the recognition of the origin of the Primal Universe!"
A hint of reminiscence flickered in the eyes of the Nine Sword Venerable: "Hundreds of thousands of epochs ago, when I participated in the Genius Battle, my performance was almost on par with that of Bolan! After joining the Virtual Universe Company, I was just as dazzling, and ultimately, at the World Lord stage, I passed the Eighteenth Layer of the Heavenly Bridge and successfully broke through to Immortal!"
"While such talent is quite astonishing, in every era, there are several World Lord among our Human Race who possess such talent! Although the resources I obtained back then were quite good, I was unable to acquire the means to Clone during my World Lord era!"
"If things had continued like this, it wouldn't have been a problem! But what I didn't expect was that after breaking through to the Immortal realm, my cultivation speed was much faster than that of the World Lord stage! In less than 100,000 years, I cultivated to the Peak King Level, and a million years later, I even became Universe Venerable, and at the same time, my teacher accepted me as a disciple!"
"But after becoming Universe Venerable, it's simply impossible for me to obtain the Clone Technique again!"
"What a pity, what a pity."
After hearing what the Nine Sword Venerable said, Yang Wu fell silent.
Perhaps it was truly a twist of fate. The speed at which the Nine Sword Venerable cultivated to the Universe Venerable was in no way inferior to those peerless geniuses who appeared only once every tens of millions of epochs!
After all, even among those geniuses who emerge only once every tens of millions of epochs, not everyone can break through to the level of Universe Venerable.
The King Yanzhu's father, the Venerable Shi Huo, broke through to the Universe Venerable in hundreds of thousands of years, and the Nine Sword Venerable broke through in less than a million years, so they weren't that far apart.
Moreover, Venerable Shi Huo has cultivated for hundreds of millions of years, while Nine Sword Venerable has only cultivated for hundreds of thousands of epochs, yet their strength is already almost equal.
Unfortunately, despite his astonishing talent, the Nine Sword Venerable was unable to obtain the Clone Technique because his talent was somewhat lacking before he Immortal.
Yang Wu, who was familiar with the original work, was well aware of the importance of Clone to the Universe Venerable and the Universe Master.
The Ganwu Universe Country Leader of the Ganwu Universe Country, having no Clone, fell several times, owing his clan and friends a large amount of Supreme Treasure Point. If Luo Feng hadn't helped him in the end, he probably wouldn't have been able to repay the debt even when the Primal Universe Destruction.
The Undying Venerable of the Giant Axe Fighting Arena is a prime example of someone who possesses Clone, allowing him to adventure fearlessly in the vast universe, ultimately earning him the title of 'Undying'.
Yang Wu now understood Wei He, despite both being High Venerable, Venerable Shi Huo punished King Longyu, a subordinate of Nine Sword Venerable, without any hesitation; Wei He Nine Sword Venerable borrowed the Supreme Treasure Armor from Luo Feng before venturing into the Primitive Star.
As a human genius who had conquered the Heavenly Mountain, Venerable Shi Huo was very likely to have obtained the Clone Technique, so he naturally would not be afraid of Nine Sword Venerable, whose strength was similar to his but who did not have Clone.
Although the Nine Sword Venerable was a disciple of the Lord of Longxing, his cultivation time was too short and he had not accumulated enough treasures. Naturally, he would want to find a way to borrow a Supreme Treasure Armor to increase his ability to protect himself!
However, it's not entirely true to say that the mechanism by which humans cultivate geniuses is flawed.
After all, geniuses are emerging one after another among humans, but obtaining the Clone Technique is extremely difficult. If a genius who appears only once every ten million years can obtain so many resources, then no matter how many resources humans have, they cannot withstand such consumption.
Therefore, the Human Race can only do its best to help those truly exceptional geniuses, such as Shihuo and Kedi, who have passed the 20th level of the Heavenly Bridge at the World Lord Level; Yang Wu, who has become Black Warrior; and Luo Feng, who was given the Luo Feng to Shiwu Wings in the original work.
It seems that if Luo Feng hadn't possessed the talent of Clone, the Chaos City Leader might have helped him Possession Special Lifeform.
"This matter has always been my greatest regret over these hundreds of thousands of epochs!" said the Nine Sword Venerable. "That's why I specifically reminded you to request a Clone Technique when your teacher wants to bestow a treasure upon you!"
"But what I didn't expect was that you ultimately chose the 'Star Bead'! Although this choice is the strongest at the Universe Level, it may not be the best choice! If you can't break through to Immortal in the future, you'll have to give up all your Clone!"
"This disciple will certainly strive to do my best!" Yang Wu said with a smile.
At the same time, Yang Wu secretly made up his mind that once he became powerful enough, he would ensure that his teacher, the Nine Sword Venerable, could freely roam the vast universe without the risk of perishing.
