Venerable

The descent of the Universe Origin is very brief. Among the three levels of entering Immortality, entering the level of Universe Venerable, and entering the Universe Master, only entering Immortality allows one to fully absorb and perfectly transform their Divine Body.

The time available to absorb divine power during the latter two leaps is very short, and how much one can absorb depends entirely on their ability.

A moment later, everything vanished.

The World Tree gradually returned to calm, though subtle fluctuations remained hidden within the divine power conversion process. Within the Ancestral God Religion, Lu Yan'an, the Time Demon Beast, and Kong Yu's Clone —the three Divine Body —had all undergone a complete transformation during the frenzied pouring of divine power seawater, Divine Body strength increasing a hundredfold. Only the World Tree remained, staring at its enormous Divine Body, utterly helpless and on the verge of tears!

"The World Tree is too vast. Even though I'm absorbing it with all my might, I can only convert 21% of World Tree," Lu Yan'an thought to himself.

A 21% conversion rate for Divine Body may not sound high, but compared to the billions of kilometers long Divine Body of the World Tree Clone, it's a massive conversion rate!

When he broke through to immortality, the Universe Origin Law flowed back, directly transforming all three of Lu Yan'an's Clone into Divine Body 100%. This time, when he stepped into the Venerable, although the ocean of Origin Law also flowed back, the divine power he absorbed was only enough to transform about 1.3 billion kilometers (equivalent to the volume of the World Tree when he first entered immortality) into a higher-level World Tree Divine Body, with the purity of the divine power being hundreds of times stronger.

"The normal rate of Divine Body transformation for Human Race's powerful individuals to become Universe Venerable is around 90%, with only a few achieving a 100% success rate."

"The Divine Body rate of the 'Golden Horned Beast' of the Star Sky Giant Beast Alliance into Universe Venerable is around 50%."

Lu Yan'an muttered to himself, it's not that the higher the conversion rate of the Divine Body when breaking through, the better. Compared to Special Lifeform, when they break through to the Venerable, their Divine Body are already very large, so their conversion rate is much lower than that of humans at the same level in almost the same conversion time! For example, the Golden Horned Beast. Of course, although the latter is only 50%, the total amount of divine power converted is many times that of human powerhouses at the same level.

The World Tree only completed the conversion of 21% of its volume, yet its total divine power was many times greater than that of the Golden Horned Beast's Clone! This gain... is enormous.

"If my normal strength as an immortal was merely at the level of a peak Universe Overlord, then now that I've broken through to the Universe Venerable, my strength has increased by such a terrifying amount. If I relied solely on my strength without the aid of Supreme Treasure, I should now be comparable to Universe Master!"

"With the Divine Body Differentiation from the World Tree Clone, even a typical Universe Master would have a hard time defending against the self-destruction of that Divine Body." Lu Yan'an was excited. Right now, even a typical Universe Master would find it very difficult to truly harm him, but he himself could actually injure Universe Master's divine Divine Body by using the self-destruction of his Divine Body. Even if his opponent was Universe Master with a protective Supreme Treasure, even if he couldn't defeat him, he could still escape!

Although he had never truly fought against the Universe Master, this alone made Lu Yan'an realize that his combat power should have crossed the threshold of the Universe Master!

"Before breaking through to the Venerable, even at the Immortal stage, my combat power was comparable to that of Top Universe Overlord. It would be very difficult for Universe Master to kill me."

"Now that I've broken through like this, my strength has increased by more than a thousand times!"

"If I were to truly encounter the Universe Master... I would certainly have to give him a good fight."

As Lu Yan'an, the World Tree, looked down at his massive body, he felt the surging, boundless divine power within him, and was filled with anticipation.

The God Kingdom is the foundation of Immortal God!

As the strength of Immortal God increases, their God Kingdom also gradually transform. For example, Lu Yan'an's Internal World reached its limit due to the influence of his Heart World when he was a World Lord. The enormous God Kingdom he established after breaking through to immortality was comparable to the God Kingdom of many Universe Venerable. In fact, as soon as he broke through to immortality, his God Kingdom expanded wildly and quickly transformed to its limit. Breakthrough means limit!

Now--

Lu Yan'an stepped into the Universe Venerable, undergoing a qualitative transformation. His God Kingdom also experienced a second transformation in a short period!

"Boom..." The sky and earth changed color.

As the God Kingdom gradually changes, it also continuously absorbs the divine power from the World Tree. The World Tree maintains a "relatively slow" output of divine power, keeping the output and the World Tree's recovery speed roughly equal. Of course, given the World Tree's size, this "relatively slow" output of divine power is already terrifying.

"Stablize!"

"We have more control now."

Lu Yan'an looked up at the endless world, as if it were a reinforced concrete house transforming into a G-grade metal house. The previous God Kingdom could be easily shaken or even collapsed by a first-order Universe Master fought desperately. But now, even if Universe Master God Kingdom his best, he probably couldn't destroy the God Kingdom. On the contrary Lu Yan'an could easily suppress this Universe Master in the God Kingdom!

The transformation of the God Kingdom lasted for about three days, after which peace returned.

"After this divine power transformation, all my Clone's overall strength has increased at least a thousand times compared to the Immortal stage!" Lu Yan'an thought to himself. "Now, even if I were to fight that Kuang Xiao Master, I'm afraid I wouldn't be at a disadvantage! Not to mention those Universe Overlord."

Although he did not name names, everyone knew that "those Universe Overlord" referred to certain Divine General of the Northern Territory Alliance.

"Ha ha..."

"One main body and three Clones."

"With the World Tree as its base and source, providing an inexhaustible supply of divine power, and the Peak Palace-type Treasure, led by the Ancient God Star, along with the high- Domain-type Supreme Treasure 'Heavenly Realm,' the ordinary sealing Supreme Treasure set 'Six-Phase Sealing Bead,' and the ordinary Soul-type Supreme Treasure 'Chen Meng,' as its support, my Divine Body, apart from not yet pushing its Life Gene Level to a perfect state, has reached a perfect limit for the current Universe Venerable. My God Kingdom is also extremely stable and powerful. Even if the Universe Master were to invade, the combined power of the endless World Tree and the God Kingdom... would be without any fear."

"My foundation is complete." Lu Yan'an's eyes erupted with terrifying divine power, his aura overwhelming the heavens and earth, causing the entire God Kingdom to change color.

"I, Lu Yan'an, after stepping into the Universe Venerable... will be the day when I roam the universe fearlessly."

"My foundation is laid. You Alien Race, it's too late for you to eliminate me."

Lu Yan'an immediately turned around, took a step, and his consciousness projection vanished into thin air within the God Kingdom.

Virtual Universe, atop Thunder Island.

Swish!

Lu Yan'an appeared out of thin air and immediately saw the City Lord of Chaos standing on the edge of the cliff.

"Master Uncle Chaos," Lu Yan'an greeted respectfully.

"Lu Yan'an, come here." The City Lord of Chaos turned to look at Lu Yan'an and said with a smile.

"Yes."

Lu Yan'an walked to the side of the City Lord of Chaos with slight doubt, but naturally lagged behind by a step. The City Lord of Chaos said, "Stand next to me and look down."

"Hmm?" Lu Yan'an then stepped forward and stood alongside the City Lord of Chaos, looking down. Below, the air was filled with mist, and palaces could be faintly seen.

"All the Immortal God of my Virtual Universe Company reside here," the City Lord of Chaos exclaimed, looking down. "The countless palaces on Thunder Island are those immortals. And the palaces on the mountainside of the Central Mountain Range of Thunder Island... those on the mountainside are inhabited by Universe Venerable, while the palaces at the summit are inhabited by Universe Master, and some extremely powerful Universe Overlord also reside at the summit."

Lu Yan'an nodded.

He secretly longed for the summit of Thunder Island, for having a palace atop the highest point of Thunder Island would signify standing among the strongest beings in the universe.

"Was the breakthrough successful?" The City Lord of Chaos asked this question seemingly casually, but the glint in his eyes hinted at the unease in his heart.

"I have completed my breakthrough! I have successfully comprehended the complete Law of Time and have become a Time Venerable!" Without any preamble, Lu Yan'an told the City Lord of Chaos, knowing full well that his senior uncle wanted to know his true strength.

"Good!" Upon hearing Lu Yan'an's reply, a look of surprise appeared on the City Lord of Chaos's face. "I didn't expect that you could cultivate to the level of Universe Venerable in such a short time. You truly deserve to be the number one genius among our Human Race!"

"Is it possible to have my own palace atop the mountain on Thunder Island?" the City Lord of Chaos inquired tactfully.

Lu Yan'an did not answer; he simply looked at the City Lord of Chaos before him with unwavering eyes.

The City Lord of Chaos looked at Lu Yan'an.

Their eyes met.

"Really?" the City Lord of Chaos couldn't help but ask.

"Mm." Lu Yan'an nodded.
