Breakthrough, a Major Increase in Strength

"Analysis, Breakthrough!"

Yang Wu, who sensed the vast aura of the King Chihong, was not alarmed. Instead, he continued to have his Yan God Race Clone attempt to break through.

This time, the Life Gene within the Yan God Race Clone no longer vibrated slightly; instead, they all began to boil over.

"Boom!"

The most fundamental structure within the Yan God Race Clan began to undergo astonishing changes.

When everything stopped, Yang Wu finally felt the astonishing power within the Yan God Race Clone.

"I've broken through!" Feeling the power that had surpassed a hundred times the strength of Life Gene, Yang Wu was overjoyed. "Maybe I really can withstand this attack?"

Thinking of this, Yang Wu immediately unleashed all his power.

"Xueluo Power, activate!"

"Auxiliary Metal Lifeform, Possess!"

But just as the Yan God Race Clone was fully activating the Auxiliary Metal Lifeform, it suddenly felt a sense of ease and control.

Keep in mind, this is Auxiliary Metal Lifeform that has already reached the Peak King Level. After possessing a user, it can even grant the user 100,000x World Lord Power.

The previous Yan God Race Clone was only barely able to mobilize ten thousand times the World Lord Power.

"Could this breakthrough have made me more than ten times stronger?" Yang Wu was extremely surprised.

But at that moment, the attack from the Chihong Wan Wang had already arrived, and Yang Wu had no time to think.

"Kashi, ignite the Immortal Divine Power!" Yang Wu immediately commanded his Auxiliary Metal Lifeform.

"Yes, Master!"

The Peak King Level Auxiliary Metal Lifeform, Kashi, also ignited its Immortal Divine Power, its aura equally astonishing.

"Possess!" The Yan God Race Clone frantically mobilized the power gained from Kashi's burning Immortal Divine Power.

"Combat Power Amplitude, full power!"

"The third move of the God Slayer spear technique—'Seven Kills '!"

Just before the King Chihong's attack was about to arrive, the Yan God Race Clone also exerted all its strength, unleashing its most powerful attack to defend itself.

In that instant, Yang Wu knew he had to block the King Chihong's full-force attack to avoid exposing the existence of the Origin Core.

However, Yang Wu was also well aware of just how powerful King Chihong's attack was, so even though his Life Gene had made a breakthrough, he still wasn't very confident.

"Ridiculous!" The King Chihong's icy gaze fell upon the Yan God Race Clone, and he mocked it through telepathy. "God Slayer King, you don't actually think that by burning your Immortal Divine Power, you can continue to block my attacks, do you?"

Burning Immortal Divine Power is generally a last-ditch effort by those stronger than Immortal.

Once the Immortal Divine Power is burned, one's strength will increase to a hundred or a thousand times the original.

Perhaps before, the God Slayer King could block his attacks with his King Armor and powerful Auxiliary Life, but after burning Immortal Divine Power, both sides' attacks increased by hundreds or thousands of times, while their defenses did not increase much.

Even though the God Slayer King continued to use his spear techniques to block some of the power of his attack, the remaining force was still enough to shatter the opponent's Immortal Divine Body and annihilate a part of it.

Boom!

The longsword in the King Chihong's hand clashed violently with the God Slayer Spear in the hand of the Yan God Race Clone.

It was as if thunder had exploded, and the rolling thunder sounded like the roar of countless giant beasts.

The incredibly powerful shockwave swept in all directions, shattering the space within hundreds of thousands of kilometers and dispersing countless Space Fragment into basic particle streams.

Faced with the terrifying attack of the King Chihong, even though most of it had been neutralized by the strongest methods used by the Yan God Race Clone, the remaining power was still comparable to the power of a Limit King Level expert's self-destruction.

Even after being weakened by the Yan God Race King Armor, this power was still comparable to the self-destruction of Peak King Level, instantly shattering the Kashi Battle Suit on the Yan God Race Clone.

Although Kashi is also at the Peak King Level, it is not Auxiliary Life specializing in defense, so it can only barely withstand a portion of the power.

As for the remaining power, although it is almost gone, it is still enough to annihilate an ordinary Immortal God without any problem.

The physical attributes of the Yan God Race Clone were, before this, only barely comparable to those of an ordinary Immortal God.

To Yang Wu's surprise, when faced with the final aftershock, the Yan God Race Clone only felt a slight tremor in its body and a slight stuffiness, before spitting out a mouthful of blood.

That's all!

There was no body shattering as expected, nor was the Origin Core exposed.

Buzz...

With a surge of energy, the shattered Divine Body of the Auxiliary Metal Lifeform Kashi reassembled, reforming its possessive battle suit within the body of the Yan God Race Clone.

"What happened?" Yang Wu was even a little puzzled to see that the Yan God Race Clone was unharmed.

"How is this possible..." King Chihong stopped his attack on Yang Wu, staring at the scene before him in disbelief.

If Yang Wu was merely somewhat puzzled, then the King Chihong was already questioning the meaning of life.

You must understand, that was his strongest attack just now; even a powerful, Invincible King Level expert might not be able to withstand it.

But the God Slayer King before them remained unharmed.

"I, I, I..." The King Chihong's expression was complex, his eyes filled with shock, anger, and disbelief.

"I didn't manage to shatter his Divine Body? I burned 2% of my Immortal Divine Power, and I still couldn't destroy his Divine Body?" King Chihong stared blankly at all of this.

His most powerful attack was already at its peak, yet it still failed to achieve anything. Doesn't this mean he has absolutely no way to deal with the God Slayer King?

King Chihong originally thought that even if the God Slayer King had the Auxiliary Life of the Peak King Level, he could at least blast the opponent's Divine Body apart by burning 2% of his Immortal Divine Body, and cause the opponent to lose some of his Immortal Divine Power. This was the most normal thing to do.

But the result was that the God Slayer King only spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yang Wu was also in a bad situation at this time, because he had received a telepathic message from the Auxiliary Metal Lifeform Kashi.

"Master, I have already lost 9% of my Immortal Divine Body!"

It should be noted that Kashi's Divine Body was an incredibly massive metal mountain range; for him to lose 9% of his Immortal Divine Body was already astonishing enough.

In fact, even if a normal attack shattered the armor that Kashi had transformed into, it would still be unable to harm the Auxiliary Life that possessed Undying Body.

However, the King Chihong's attack was simply too powerful. After shattering Kashi's Divine Body, the aftershocks of the battle were enough to annihilate a portion of Kashi's Divine Body as well.

After all, once the Divine Body of Immortal God is shattered, its defensive capabilities are at their lowest point.

The situation in the battle had changed.

The King Chihong, who previously held an absolute advantage, has now found himself in an awkward position after burning his Immortal Divine Power.

If he stops burning his Immortal Divine Power, the battle will fall into the same old cycle.

However, if he chooses to continue burning his Immortal Divine Power, then his opponent can naturally also continue burning his Immortal Divine Power to resist.

Without shattering the other's Divine Body, King Chihong had no idea who would have the last laugh, after all, God Slayer King was a member of the Yan God Race like him, with Divine Body of similar size.

Just as the King Chihong was hesitating, Yang Wu made the decision for him.

"Haha, King Chihong, your strength is nothing special after all!"

The avatar of the Yan God Race Clone mocked telepathically, and in a flash, it rushed to the side of the Earthling Main Body, casually waving its hand to take the Earthling Main Body into its Internal World.

"I will come back to find you!" After leaving these words, the Yan God Race Clone stepped into the void and instantly unleashed the Peak Ultimate Technique <Nine Steps of Sky-Stepping>, his speed soaring to an astonishing level, transforming into a streak of Flowing Light and flying into the distance.

"Damn you, God Slayer King! I will definitely kill you!" the King Chihong transmitted angrily.

But watching the God Slayer King's departing figure, he did not choose to continue the pursuit. Instead, he stood there in silence for a long time.

"With the power of this God Slayer King, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for me to capture him on my own!"

"However, the leader's orders must be carried out, but this Outer-Region Battlefield does not allow Universe Venerable to enter. How can we possibly deal with that God Slayer King?" King Chihong pondered in his heart.

"Go find other powerful individuals for help?"

"No, even if other powerful figures come to help, the God Slayer King can also summon powerful figures from the Human Faction. Moreover, with his astonishing Movement Technique, even if Nan Cheng and the others gang up on him, it will be difficult to achieve anything!"

"How despicable!" King Chihong was filled with rage.

"If, if the secret technique I created were more powerful, then even if the God Slayer King used that amazing spear technique just now, he would never be able to block most of its power!"

In truth, the King Chihong knew very well that his greatest weakness was his Self-Created Secret Technique.

Take the King Zhenyan as an example!

Both King Chihong and King Zhenyan are Invincible King Level. They are almost the same in terms of their Law Comprehension, Heavy Treasure, Amplitude Secret Technique. However, King Chihong's Life Gene Level is higher, reaching the limit of a hundred times that of ordinary life in the universe, while King Zhenyan's Life Gene is only ten times that of ordinary life in the universe.

Logically speaking, this would make the King Chihong ten times stronger than the King Zhenyan.

However, the reality is not like that, because the King Zhenyan's self-created Peak Ultimate Technique is extremely powerful, while the King Chihong's Self-Created Secret Technique is slightly lacking. Overall, he is at most slightly better.

If dealing with a weaker opponent, the King Chihong would naturally be faster, since his basic power is stronger. However, if dealing with a powerful opponent like the God Slayer King, the King Zhenyan would naturally have a slight advantage.

"That God Slayer King has only been on the Outer-Region Battlefield for a short time, so he will likely stay there for quite some time."

"In that case, I will carefully study the secret techniques on this Outer-Region Battlefield. Once my Self-Created Secret Technique become stronger, I will naturally be able to defeat my opponent!"

With this in mind, the King Chihong immediately decided to stay on the Outer-Region Battlefield for a period of time to refine his Self-Created Secret Technique.

After all, he would have no face to return to the Yan God Secret Region if he failed to complete the task assigned by the leader!

Just as King Chihong was pondering, the Yan God Race Clone also left the area Space Lockdown.

Whoosh!

With a single thought, Yang Wu instantly Teleportation to an extremely safe and secluded place.

Buzz!

The World Energy dissipated, and all the members of the Blood Blade Squad, who had been stored in the World Ring, appeared before the Yan God Race Clone.

"The entire Blood Blade Squad thanks the God Slayer King for saving our lives!"

As soon as they appeared, Marquis Blood Blade and the others respectfully thanked the Yan God Race Clone.

Although their senses were blocked, they had already seen the figure of a powerful Alien Race before being put into the World Ring.

The fact that the Alien Race powerhouse was valued so highly by the God Slayer King meant that he was far superior to the previous Rock Alien Race High King Level Immortal God.

God Slayer King hadn't been there to rescue them, it's unlikely they would have encountered each other.

"No need for such formalities!" Yang Wu waved his hand and said.

After Yang Wu repeatedly refused the gifts offered by Marquis Blood Blade and others, the Blood Blade Squad left with gratitude.

At this time, the Blood Blade Squad had already lost an elite member, and the vice-captain Storm, who had the strength of High-level Marquis, had also lost a large number of Immortal Divine Body, so he naturally chose to return to the Barracks Base to recuperate.

After the Blood Blade Squad left, Yang Wu slowly began to sense the changes within the Yan God Race Clone.

"Test your strength!"

Boom!

The Yan God Race Clone did not activate the Xueluo Power within its body, nor did it use Auxiliary Life possession techniques; it simply relied on its own basic strength to unleash a powerful punch.

"This power has indeed broken through the limitation of a hundred times the Life Gene!"

Feeling the explosive power that exceeded a hundred times that of World Lord Power, Yang Wu was overjoyed. "To be precise, the Life Gene of the Yan God Race Clone have doubled again, reaching an astonishing 128 times."

"Let's try the effects of the Blood of the Beast God again! Xueluo Power, activate!"

A tremendously ancient aura suddenly erupted from the Yan God Race Clone, as if it had existed since the very beginning of the universe.

At the same time, countless blood-red threads wrapped around the body of the Yan God Race Clone, and a huge Beast God Roar Diagram appeared on its chest, as if the real Beast God was roaring angrily.

Boom!

Yang Wu threw another punch with all his might, carefully sensing the change in power.

"Hahaha... What powerful strength!"

Feeling the powerful force within his body, Yang Wu was incredibly excited.

"Now I finally understand Wei He the Yan God Race Clone was able to withstand the King Chihong's attack!"

"Because the Life Gene Level of the Yan God Race Clone has increased by 7200 times!"

"After breaking the limitation of a hundredfold Life Gene, the strength of the Yan God Race Clone has indeed achieved a qualitative leap!"

After the breakthrough of the Yan God Race Clone genes, it was fully able to mobilize the 720,000 times the World Lord Power provided by the Auxiliary Metal Lifeform after burning the Immortal Divine Body, and on top of that, it could use the Amplitude Secret Technique to amplify again.

Although it is still far from matching the explosive power of the King Chihong, its superior secret technique is enough to withstand a large portion of its power.

Moreover, although the King Chihong's attack was still enough to annihilate Ordinary Immortal after being weakened by the Yan God Race King Armor and Auxiliary Life, the Yan God Race Clone's Life Gene had broken through, and its physical qualities were no less than those of ordinary High-level Marquis experts, so it naturally would not be annihilated.

It can be said that after breaking the limitation of a hundred times the Life Gene, the Yan God Race Clone has greatly improved both its own strength and defensive capabilities.

However, this is still considered normal. In the original work, after Luo Feng cultivated the fifth tribulation of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, the Life Gene of his Earthling Main Body was only 48 times that of an ordinary life form in the universe. However, with the addition of the Xueluo Power, it reached an astonishing three thousand times.

The Life Gene of the Yan God Race Clone has reached 128 times that of ordinary life in the universe. From the Yan God Race Lineage, this is equivalent to a weakened version of the seventh tribulation of the <Nine Tribulations Secret Manual>. After being empowered by the Xueluo Power, it is not surprising that it has reached 7200 times the Life Gene.

In fact, the successful fusion of just one hundred drops of Blood of the Beast God is enough to raise the Gene Level of an ordinary life form to a hundredfold, and the Yan God Race Clone has already reached an astonishing 64 times.

The reason why we were unable to improve the Life Gene Level according to the rules before was simply because we were limited by the Hundredfold Life Gene Level.

Now, the Yan God Race Clone has broken through the limitation of a hundred times the Life Gene through its own efforts, and with the blessing of the Blood of the Beast God, it has since leaped over the dragon gate and is now free to roam the world.

"Back then, Yan Emperor probably relied on his own ability to break through the limitation of a hundred times the Life Gene to pass the test of the Mountain Sitting Guest!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

It must be said that Yan Emperor was once considered a genius of extraordinary talent.

Now that Yang Wu is extremely familiar with the original work and clearly understands the talent of the Yan God Race Lineage in the way of the body, he has barely broken through the limitation of a hundred times the Life Gene.

But Yan Emperor didn't know any of this back then, yet he still managed to break through the shackles and achieve invincible fame!

"No wonder in the original story, before Luo Feng retrieved the Tribulation Armor, the Yan Emperor said that he was stronger than Luo Feng back then!"

Even if there's an element of self-praise involved, it's enough to demonstrate Yan Emperor's extraordinary talent!

"If it weren't for my personality flaws and the wrong path I took later, I might have actually had a chance to become the Universe Supreme Being!" Yang Wu kept thinking.

A moment later.

Yang Wu finally snapped out of his daze over his tremendous increase in strength and stopped thinking about the Yan Emperor.

In any case, the Life Gene of the Yan God Race Clone are now comparable to those of top-tier Special Lifeform.

However, even with his breakthrough in Life Gene, he is still far from being a match for the King Chihong. To kill him, he would probably need to break through to the Immortal.

"Although I can't deal with Invincible King Level expert, I should have no problem hunting down Alien Race powerhouses at the Peak King Level!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

As his strength increases, Yang Wu will acquire resources at an increasingly faster pace.

With the existence of the Time Palace, his strength will continue to increase rapidly.

"Shall we go find the Purple Bell King now?"

"No, the Purple Bell King possesses the Purple Bell, making his defense far superior to that of Peak King Level. With my current strength, I might not even be able to kill him!"

"But if we alert him, he might flee the Outer-Region Battlefield, making it much harder to obtain the Purple Bell again!"

"Why not find a Peak King Level expert to practice against first? That way, I'll have a better chance of success!" Yang Wu secretly planned in his heart.

With this in mind, Yang Wu began searching for traces of Peak King Level experts through the Army System.

The danger level on the Yanji Continent is far less than that of the highest-level combat zones like the Star Tower. Therefore, the palaces of many Peak King Level experts on the Yanji Continent are located in open areas.

Like the Machine Race's King Jiujian, the Monster Race's Ziqiong King, and so on...

Yang Wu quickly determined his goal.

"It's her, the Ziqiong King of the Monster Race. She even led a group to search for me back then!"

When Yang Wu first arrived on the Yanji Continent, his true form was hunted down by Ziqiong King and his men after revealing his strength.

Fortunately, Yang Wu continued to act as Yan God Race Clone and never encountered any danger.

The Yan Emperor is bragging, in Chapter 6 of Part 20.

At that time, Luo Feng had already defeated the King Feijing at the Immortal stage, making him an incredibly powerful genius. Yet, Yan Emperor still felt that he was even more amazing than Luo Feng back then. Even if there was some self-praise involved, it was enough to demonstrate Emperor Yan's extraordinary talent.

Furthermore, I've noticed that everyone says Yan Emperor is trash, and Hong and Thunder God have weak talents, but it really depends on who they're compared to.

Even the strongest geniuses at the Primordial Secret Realm level, after millions of years of cultivation, only managed to comprehend the eighteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven.

Hong cultivated for less than 100,000 years and yet achieved the King Rank. Is this due to weak talent?

From the time humanity reached the end of the universe (ten trillion epochs), there were over a thousand universe lords, and Thor was one of them. Could it be that his talent was inferior to that of a primordial secret realm lord?

As for Yan Emperor, before Luo Feng rose to prominence, his strength was probably among the top 100 in the entire universe.

Even though the Ice Peak Master is stronger than him, how many beings in the universe could rival the Ice Peak Master in terms of power and resources?

To surpass Yan Emperor, one must at least comprehend the Strongest Secret Technique (not just merge the strongest). Just look at how difficult it is to master the Strongest Secret Technique when Luo Feng killed over six thousand Universe Venerable and fought against the Zerg Race Universe Master.

As for treasures and Life Gene, Yan Emperor is not much weaker than the Chaos City Leader.

What's missing is the Ultimate Secret Technique (at the level of the Yan Emperor, which even Universe Master could create with time), the Strongest Secret Technique (at the level of the Ice Peak Master), and the fusion of the Strongest Secret Technique (at the level of the Chaos City Leader).

As for most Universe Master in the universe, they are mostly at the second level, or at the initial stage of the third level (Universe Master Youhou).
