"Since you intend to participate in the Universe-level martial arts tournament, you will surely be going as your true self from the Desolate God Clan. Take this Phantom Spirit Armor, then!"
Huang Tian watched his son, who had clearly made up his mind, and without further ado, produced a colorful suit of soft armor to hand to Huang Wuye.
Huang Wuye looked at Huang Tian with some confusion, but his hands moved quickly, taking the soft armor from his father's grasp.
"This is a special treasure. Beyond its basic defensive properties, its primary function is to alter the size and shape of one's physique.
It is a protective treasure passed down through our lineage for disciples undergoing trials.
With it, you can shrink your stature to that of an ordinary human.
After all, the natural physique of our Desolate God Clan is far too conspicuous."
Seeming to notice his son's puzzled expression, Huang Tian offered an explanation.
"Change my physique? In that case, old man, you should take it back and use it yourself!"
Seeing Huang Tian's stature suddenly tower over him, and thinking of the transformation secret technique he had acquired by analyzing the genes of the Demon-Slaying Clan, Huang Wuye intended to return the Phantom Spirit Armor.
Fearing Huang Tian might not believe him, he began to shift his own form even as he spoke.
Watching his son's body continuously morph, Huang Tian was quite astonished. However, he did not take back the armor, instead pushing it back toward him.
"What secret technique is this? While I do not know the limits of your method, I can guess a thing or two; furthermore, it cannot conceal your aura.
With the Phantom Spirit Armor, you can completely mask your own presence.
Moreover, the armor's own defense is no less than that of standard Immortal-level gear. Most importantly, it is of no use to me anymore."
"Alright then, I'll use it for my Gluttonous Golden Ape clone. Hmm, old man, are you planning to break through to Immortality?"
Huang Wuye immediately grasped the crux of the matter; if even an armor comparable to Immortal-grade gear was useless to him, then Huang Tian was likely on the verge of a breakthrough.
"Indeed. Your mother has long been prepared to break through, and it is time for me to do so as well," Huang Tian said with a smile, nodding slightly.
Huang Wuye was overjoyed upon hearing this. Huang Tian's several clones already possessed strength comparable to Marquis or even King-level Immortals.
Once he achieved the breakthrough, he would be considered an absolute powerhouse even among King-level Immortals.
Furthermore, Huang Tian possessed multiple clones, making him far more formidable than the average King-level Immortal.
Huang Tian was equally pleased; having cultivated for countless ages, he was finally about to step into Immortality, and sharing this joy with his son put him in high spirits.
"Has your second soul clone been gestated yet?" he then asked Huang Wuye.
"It has." Huang Wuye was puzzled—could there be a lead regarding a second clone?
"Since it has been gestated, you must be vigilant. If I am not mistaken, you will find what you seek here on Giant Wood Planet.
The clan has some understanding of your talent; logically, your mission would not be on Giant Wood Planet, so sending you here is naturally not a simple matter.
This Giant Wood Planet was not like this long ago. If I am not mistaken, your second clone is hidden here.
Of course, you will have to find it yourself; that is the true purpose behind arranging for you to come to Giant Wood Planet," Huang Tian explained.
Huang Wuye's eyes lit up upon hearing this. He had not expected such a pleasant surprise; it seemed he would have to place his soul clone into the Gluttonous Golden Ape clone after all.
Huang Wuye's soul clone could be transferred, and should his main body fall, he could still be re-gestated within his other clones.
Conversely, if another soul clone were to perish, it could also be re-gestated, though the gestation period would be longer if the main soul were lost.
"Very well, set those matters aside for now. You should first finish binding the Gluttonous Golden Ape."
After giving these instructions, Huang Tian turned his attention back to the Gluttonous Golden Ape.
Huang Wuye re-established the connection with his sub-soul, placing the majority of his consciousness into the Gluttonous Golden Ape, while reserving a sliver of his mind to review his plans for the Universe-level tournament.
Speaking of the Universe-level tournament, Huang Wuye felt a degree of confidence, which stemmed from the progress he had made over the last three years.
In these three years, with the aid of nutrient fluids, both his martial artist level and his spirit reader level had reached the peak of the Universe level.
This time, he had intentionally controlled his spirit reader level to prevent it from breaking through to the Domain Lord level.
Additionally, his physical force output had reached one hundred times after these years of cultivation, which was the absolute limit below the Immortal level.
Having achieved perfect control over his force output, Huang Wuye could command every inch of his skin and hair.
His consciousness could perfectly govern his body, allowing every part of him to erupt with immense power at a single thought.
This was quite similar to the concept of "breaking the void and seeing the divine without damage" from the Dragon Snake world.
Before breaking through to Immortality and transforming his body into an energy-based lifeform, his force output had already reached its limit.
Only after breaking through to Immortality, and depending on the uniqueness of one's body, would there be talk of divine body amplitude.
As for the Laws, with the help of the Fire Truth Interpretation and the Drifting Blood manual, his progress had been rapid.
He had already fully comprehended the first level of the Fire Truth Interpretation and had stepped into the second.
One must know that comprehending the first level of the Fire Truth Interpretation allowed one to master the first thirty-six basic mysteries.
These thirty-six basic mysteries could form a cohesive whole; once fully grasped, one's control over the Origin Law of Fire would take a massive leap forward.
Now, Huang Wuye could exert fine-tuned control over the Law of Fire.
With the help of the Drifting Snow manual, Huang Wuye had already mastered the first twenty-four basic mysteries of the Law of Space.
The Law of Space was truly a superior law; the difficulty of comprehending it was far beyond what the Origin Law of Fire could compare to.
With the talent Huang Wuye possessed at this moment, which far surpassed that of Kodi—a genius who only appeared once every ten million epochs—he had only just managed to comprehend the twenty-fourth type of fundamental profound mystery.
Of course, this was already considered outrageous. If calculated according to the Nine Universes Chaos Stele of the Virtual Universe Company, it was already comparable to having fully comprehended the second diagram, the Drizzle Diagram.
The first three diagrams of the Nine Universes Chaos Stele were the first, the Raindrop Diagram; the second, the Drizzle Diagram; and the third, the Rainstorm Diagram. These three diagrams represented a continuous, deep-level refinement and study of the Laws of the Origin of Space.
To fully comprehend the Raindrop Diagram and gain a rough understanding of the Drizzle Diagram was enough to clear the sixth level of the Heavenly Bridge.
Huang Wuye's current comprehension of the Laws of Space was certainly not limited to this; it was inevitably higher.
It could be said that if Huang Wuye were to participate in the Universe-level powerhouse battle right now, he could likely enter the top one thousand and even secure a respectable ranking.
However, his goal was the top three, or even first place, to enter the Primal Region directly, so his current strength was still not quite enough.
Over these years, Huang Wuye's life genes had also been continuously sublimating with the help of his innate secret technique, Soul Analysis.
At this moment, Huang Wuye's life genes were already fifteen times that of an ordinary human.
Furthermore, there was a small surprise: a prototype of a core had appeared within Huang Wuye's body.
As Huang Wuye's life sublimated, many miraculous traits began to manifest in his body.
Much like the ancient martial arts of China, it was as if he had excavated his own potential and unlocked the treasures of the human body, giving rise to many divine abilities.
Huang Wuye was very much looking forward to this, though he was only slightly surprised by the appearance of the core.
After all, he did not possess the innate talent for clones; it simply meant his ability to preserve his life was a little stronger, as he had eliminated the vital points of his body.
