As a member of the Yan God Clan, Qin Cang knew that after endless ages, the Yan God Clan possessed the legendary four great armors: the Soldier Armor, General Armor, King Armor, and Emperor Armor. As a member of the Yan God Clan, once one reached the World Lord Level, their life gene level would automatically evolve to six times that of an ordinary universe lifeform. One only needed to reach a twofold amplitude or fuse three Xueluo Crystals to be able to use the Soldier Armor!
Through the 1000-fold World Lord power granted by the Soldier Armor, ordinary Immortals were absolutely no match for a Yan God Clan World Lord.
When facing powerhouses at the Marquis level, if one's secret techniques were insufficient, even if they could not contend, they could generally still escape with their lives.
It could be said that the existence of these four great armors gave the Yan God Clan the confidence to look down upon all other bloodlines of the Human Race. Even within the entire universe, they were ranked among the best, and could be called hard to find an opponent.
However, they encountered that pitfall of a person, the Yan Emperor, and the Yan God Clan's hope was completely severed.
However, nowadays the Yan God Clan only had a few King level powerhouses, and the four great armors were derivative sub-armors of the Calamity Armor. The Calamity Armor's current location was unknown, let alone the four derivative sub-armors. It was likely that apart from Mountain Sitting Guest, no one knew where they were, and it was even possible that Mountain Sitting Guest hadn't even forged the Calamity Armor yet.
For all practitioners who reached the Immortal level, strength boiled down to nothing more than laws, amplitude, secret techniques, treasures, and life gene levels.
As a member of the Yan God Clan, Qin Cang clearly knew that the Yan God Clan possessed terrifying potential within their bodies—the potential to reach the third level of the divine power path: the Infinite Divine Body.
This potential was personally acknowledged by Mountain Sitting Guest, and the Yan Emperor had raised his life gene level to nearly ten thousand times before becoming a Universe Master, which made even the ancestor of the Starry Sky Behemoths shocked by Mountain Sitting Guest's methods.
Moreover, in the process of growth, the only race whose life gene level naturally increases without relying on external objects, from Qin Cang's current knowledge, is the Yan God Clan!
As for those Bug Race royal families or Starry Sky Behemoths, they were born with quite high life gene levels, and to improve further, they could only rely on external objects.
Through all of the above, Qin Cang finally determined his future cultivation path.
The improvement of the life gene level was absolutely the top priority; he needed to dig out the secrets of the Yan God Clan bloodline. On this point, Qin Cang had consulted the few King level powerhouses within the Yan God Clan.
Even though their comprehension of laws was not very strong—only one had reached the twentieth level of the Sky Bridge—without exception, these King level powerhouses all had high life gene levels, though unfortunately, none exceeded one hundred times.
Among these King level Immortals, only King Gale had experienced four evolutions of his life gene level!
Coupled with some treasures he had absorbed in his early years, King Gale's current life gene level had reached 100 times, and his divine body was nearly one kilometer tall!
This was the limit for ordinary lifeforms before becoming a Universe Master under normal circumstances.
Furthermore, with the help of his Venerable teacher, King Gale had received the Divine General Inheritance and possessed a divine body amplitude of nearly 50 times!
Moreover, King Gale had passed the twentieth level of the Sky Bridge many years ago, had mastered all three branches of the space origin laws, and had created several sets of peak secret techniques.
Combined with a set of Heavy Treasures and various overlapping factors, King Gale was hailed as the strongest invincible King of the Human Race, and there was not even one exception. Only geniuses like Qin Cang, who could gestate powerful Special Lifeform clones or possess a Special Lifeform, had the hope of suppressing King Gale at the King level.
As early as the Domain Lord Level, Qin Cang had visited King Gale, and King Gale was still very patient in guiding excellent juniors of the Yan God Clan.
In his conversations with King Gale, Qin Cang also roughly understood some of the requirements for the Yan God Clan to evolve their life gene level after reaching the World Lord Level.
The most critical point among them was the need for battle—high-intensity battle, life-and-death battle.
King Gale's third and fourth life gene level evolutions both occurred during battles and the reviews that followed them.
Moreover, after the life gene level evolved, the divine body also underwent an evolution.
When the third evolution of the life gene level occurred, the height of the divine body also increased by 10 times, reaching nearly one hundred meters.
And after the fourth evolution occurred, the height of the divine body increased by another 10 times, reaching its current height of nearly one kilometer.
One must know that one of the greatest weaknesses of the Human Race is their small divine bodies; compared to the Bug Race or Machine Race, they have no advantage, not to mention the Monster Race known for their massive bodies.
A divine body height of one kilometer, below the level of a Human Race Universe Master, is considered extremely massive, and the divine power stored within is also extremely terrifying.
When the third and fourth evolutions occurred, the life gene level also doubled each time. In this situation, King Gale, combined with some treasures he had absorbed early on to improve his life gene level, although he had not reached 100 times the gene, was extremely close. Finally, at an auction held by the Hong Alliance, he spent a great price to purchase some treasures, ultimately raising his life gene level to 100 times!
Reaching the limit of ordinary lifeforms before becoming a Universe Master, a 100-fold life gene level—let alone mere Immortals, even those Universe Venerables or even Universe Overlords could not reach it. After all, the cost required was too high; for a Venerable to improve their strength, they certainly had to save their Heavy Treasure points.
Although the life gene level can be solidified and will not disappear even if one falls and is resurrected, it is much better than portable treasures like Heavy Treasures.
However, the resources required to raise the life gene level from 10 times to 20 times are completely different from raising it from 90 times to 100 times.
Even for the same increase from 10 times to 20 times, the cost required for a Venerable and an Immortal is completely different.
Therefore, many Venerables and Universe Overlords stop spending huge costs to improve their life gene level once it reaches several dozen times.
Unless it is someone like the Demon Wing Venerable, who is ancient, has clones, and has reached a point where he cannot improve any further before becoming a Universe Master, would he slowly accumulate resources to raise his divine body amplitude and life gene level to the 100-fold universe limit.
Ordinary Venerables do not have this kind of financial power.
The Yan God Clan is born with the ability to evolve their life genes; this is Qin Cang's greatest treasure. Although it is not as unreasonable as Luo Feng cultivating the Nine Calamities Manual—which requires no slow digging, only cultivation according to the manual's guidance, and combined with Xueluo Crystals and the Blood of the Beast God, one can reach the level of a perfect gene, and even as an Immortal, by relying on the superposition of various treasures and secret techniques, one can face top Universe Overlords without falling behind.
Qin Cang did not have such high aspirations; he would be very satisfied if he could develop his Yan God Clan divine body to the point of being able to fight a Universe Venerable without relying on a Special Lifeform clone.
Even the King Feijing from the original work, as a Special Lifeform with a natural 2000-fold life gene level, was only on par with a low-level Universe Venerable.
To reach this level, not to mention other supreme treasures or external objects, the life gene level alone must be raised to at least a thousand times, and one must create several sets of peak secret techniques or even ultimate secret techniques to have this possibility.
Of course, if it were a clone, the Sky Canopy Python's 5000-fold life gene level would make many Venerables lose the desire to take action, and by relying on innate secret techniques and treasures, it would not be difficult to kill a few low-level Venerables.
