Black Warrior

Primal Secret Region, Wuchen Spacetime, Manor No. 101; this was the exclusive training ground belonging to Qin Cang.

Inside the manor's martial arts arena, Qin Cang sat cross-legged in mid-air. At this moment, his aura was already countless times more formidable than when he had cleared the World Lord Level Primal Sky Mountain.

That's right, Qin Cang had already broken through to the World Lord realm, and as previously anticipated, his life gene level had evolved once more, reaching six times that of an ordinary universe lifeform.

Afterward, by absorbing Nutrient Solution, he had rapidly climbed to the ninth stage of the World Lord level!

Upon reaching the World Lord level, his cultivation speed had increased significantly compared to the Domain Lord level. For Qin Cang, the more critical factor now was the enhancement of his physical strength.

After all, his comprehension of the laws had already reached the level of the 16th Level of the Sky Bridge, and there would not be any major breakthroughs in that area in the short term.

Therefore, what affected his combat power was his physical strength. This was also why those geniuses who had cleared the 20th Level of the Sky Bridge and the World Lord Level Primal Sky Mountain—despite having law comprehension and secret techniques no weaker than those of peak or even extreme King level powerhouses—could at most only manage to kill Marquis level Immortals.

This was the most primitive, most unreasonable gap in raw stats. Back then, even though Luo Feng's law comprehension was still far behind, he could stand on par with Kings simply by relying on his General Armor and King Armor.

Beside Qin Cang floated two space rings. The first one contained the Blood of the Beast God!

The Blood of the Beast God was refined from Xueluo Crystals; it took 100 Xueluo Crystals to refine a single drop of the Blood of the Beast God.

Integrating one drop of the Blood of the Beast God into the body had the same effect as one Xueluo Crystal.

However, the human race had its own reasons for doing this.

After all, the conditions for integrating Xueluo Crystals were far too harsh. Not only did the subject have to be a flesh-and-blood lifeform, but they also had to undergo the transformation of baleful qi and possess a willpower far exceeding that of an ordinary person to have any chance of success.

Back when Qin Cang was on the Xueluo Continent, it had taken him over a decade to successfully integrate three Xueluo Crystals and become a Blood Warrior.

This also made Qin Cang sigh at the convenience of Luo Feng possessing a Mosha Clan clone. Although its late-stage strength was average and far inferior to the Nether Sea, the Golden Horned Beast, or his human original body, the functionality of the Mosha Clan clone was truly powerful. In the early stages, before Luo Feng had grown up, the Mosha Clan had indeed brought him many opportunities, and those countless Xueluo Crystals were almost all plundered by the Mosha Clan clone.

Shaking his head, Qin Cang cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind. After all, whether it was integrating Xueluo Crystals or the Blood of the Beast God, the greatest taboo was a lack of focus.

He took a silver briefcase out of the space ring. Inside the case sat seven transparent Electric Crystals, each containing a drop of dazzling golden light that radiated a surging aura. It was as if he could hear the roars of the Beast God ringing in his ears.

"This is the Blood of the Beast God. Truly beautiful." Qin Cang couldn't help but sigh, as if he could see the Beast God in its prime, rampaging across the universe. But alas, it could not escape the fate of becoming fodder for the myriad races of the universe, and the human race, under the leadership of the Original Ancestor, had successfully killed the Metal Beast God and created the Xueluo Continent, a place that could produce Xueluo Crystals in almost endless supply.

Qin Cang carefully took out one Electric Crystal, gently pulled off the stopper, and poured it into his palm.

At first glance, the Blood of the Beast God was a streak of golden light, but one could vaguely see countless law secret patterns flowing within it.

The golden light dripped onto his palm and instantly permeated his entire body. At this moment, Qin Cang's whole body was emitting bursts of golden light. After stepping into the World Lord level, his body's tolerance had greatly increased. Furthermore, he had already undergone the baleful qi transformation on the Xueluo Continent back at the Universe Level; had conditions permitted, he wouldn't have only integrated three Xueluo Crystals.

Now that he had the Blood of the Beast God, which was easier to integrate than Xueluo Crystals, the process was effortless.

A moment later, the first drop of the Blood of the Beast God had been fully integrated.

"This feels good. Let's go again!" Qin Cang nodded with satisfaction, feeling the sensation of his blood boiling throughout his body—it was truly intoxicating.

Following that, the second drop of the Blood of the Beast God, then the third, the fourth, the fifth...

Right up until the ninth drop, Qin Cang did not feel any significant resistance.

"It seems the tenth drop of the Blood of the Beast God won't stop me either. It's a pity the teacher only sent seven drops; if only there were more." He then added, "The race has free quotas for core geniuses; I'll just apply for more when I need them later. For now, becoming a Black Warrior is the priority. Only then can I gestate the clone I need."

"Come on, my path to becoming a Black Warrior—success or failure hinges on this one move!" Qin Cang thought to himself.

For Xueluo Crystals, integrating three, ten, or one hundred were each a limit.

Upon integrating three, the affinity with the universe origin increased by onefold, and the life gene level would increase by three times.

Upon integrating ten, the affinity with the universe origin reached three times the original, but the life gene level could increase by ten times.

As a member of the Yan God Clan, Qin Cang's life gene level automatically reached six times that of an ordinary universe lifeform at the World Lord level. If he integrated ten Xueluo Crystals, driven by the Blood Luo Power, his life gene level would reach sixty times that of an ordinary universe lifeform!

Sixty times!

One must know that once the life gene level exceeds ten times, one can be considered a special lifeform. All special lifeforms are gestated by the universe itself and cannot be propagated through ordinary means. Even the small World Tree or the Prince of the Nether Sea that appeared in the original story were only propagated after that Venerable-level World Tree and the Lord of Nine Serenities paid a huge price.

It is said that in order to propagate offspring, the World Tree even lowered its own life gene level; the cost was not insignificant.

Even after breaking through to become a Universe Master, one could use external objects to increase their life gene level, but how many resources would it take for the massive divine body of a World Tree?

Qin Cang solemnly integrated the final drop of the Blood of the Beast God into his palm. In an instant, the blood vanished, and just like before, bursts of golden light appeared within his body, with the phantom of the Beast God seemingly roaring amidst the light.

Qin Cang's expression shifted slightly as he looked down at his palm. The tenth drop was indeed not as easy as the previous ones; after all, this was a process of qualitative change.

The Blood Luo Power underwent its final transformation within his body. His muscles and bones seemed to be compressed to their limit, emitting a series of cracking sounds, and the pressure of the Blood Luo Power integration grew ever greater.

Finally, as the last trace of Blood Luo Power merged, the pain vanished like a receding tide.

At this moment, Qin Cang's body was covered in scales, which then rapidly faded away.

"Hahaha, it's done. I have become a Black Warrior, the legendary Black Warrior."

"Blood Luo Power."

Boom! A trace of golden light faintly emerged across his skin, his eyes carried a hint of pale gold, and a layer of scales faintly appeared on his body, making him look like a humanoid beast!

More importantly, at this moment, with the superposition of the Black Warrior physique and the Yan God Clan's inherent six-fold life gene level, Qin Cang's life gene level had reached sixty times that of an ordinary universe lifeform.

Just then, the call from the Demon Wing Venerable arrived.
