With a single drop of blood, he could be reborn!
Unless every scrap of flesh on his body was completely destroyed.
Or his soul was directly annihilated.
"This Innate Secret Technique is actually pretty useless against the strong," Jiang Luo thought.
Domain Lord-level experts already possessed a Life Core.
As long as their Life Core remained intact, they wouldn't die. Any damage to their bodies could be repaired with genetic Origin Energy.
As for World Lords, that went without saying. As long as their Life Core was unharmed, even if their entire body was destroyed, they could use World Power to recreate it at any time.
However, for Star Level and Universe Level warriors, the "Blood Rebirth" Innate Secret Technique was indeed a powerful trump card for saving their lives.
Jiang Luo took a translucent bottle filled with silvery liquid from his Space Ring.
"I should be able to fuse with the Roaring Cloud Beast blood now, right?"
After passing the third Trial Tower, he had bought all the special materials needed to cultivate the Thirteen Sword Fiend Body.
But the process of fusing with those materials had been far from smooth.
He had fused with only three materials before hitting a wall. No matter what he tried, he couldn't fuse with the fourth.
It wasn't just the excruciating pain. More importantly, he had a premonition that if he forced the fusion, his body wouldn't be able to withstand it. Exploding and dying would be the least of his worries.
Only by using the "gradual infiltration method" to slowly erode his body might he succeed in fusing with it over the course of several decades, or even a century.
That meant he truly wasn't suited to cultivating the Thirteen Sword Fiend Body.
But for the Flint Star Sector Lord's treasure, he had to force his way through, whether he was suited to it or not.
So Jiang Luo had spent four years focusing on cultivating the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map. After reaching the seventh layer, he tried to force his body to contain the special materials required for the Thirteen Sword Fiend Body.
Without hesitation, Jiang Luo tipped his head back and swallowed the silvery blood in the bottle.
As soon as the silvery liquid entered his body, it was like a strong acid meeting a strong base. It sizzled as it ate away at him.
In just a moment, a huge hole had been corroded through his chest, and even his heart had been eaten away.
But as his "Blood Rebirth" Innate Secret Technique activated, his body began to regenerate, locked in a tug-of-war with the silvery liquid as it corroded him.
During their struggle, the silvery liquid continued to seep into every tiny crevice, into every cell.
At the same time, excruciating pain surged from every cell.
In his sea of consciousness, Jiang Luo visualized the Nuwa Map to withstand the unbearable agony.
'No wonder this Roaring Cloud Beast is a "super fierce beast" whose life level rivals that of some members of the Demon Race Royal Family. If it weren't for its lack of intelligence, it might have had a chance to become a powerful race in the Primal Universe...'
Jiang Luo let his thoughts wander to distract himself from the pain.
Swallowing the blood of a Universe Level Roaring Cloud Beast was practically like swallowing poison.
If he hadn't cultivated the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map to the seventh layer, sending his Gene Level soaring to six times that of an ordinary human, he wouldn't have been able to force the fusion. His Gene Level was now on par with the Roaring Cloud Beast's.
Two days and two nights passed before he completely fused with the Roaring Cloud Beast blood.
Jiang Luo immediately took out the next special material: a crystal-like "Purple Vein Glass Heart."
It looked beautiful, but the Purple Vein Glass Heart contained explosive energy.
Only certain special plant lifeforms could slowly digest and absorb it.
Even a single one cost more than a Life Fruit.
After the Purple Vein Glass Heart came a special metal that flowed like magma, the "Burning Sun Copper Mother"...
More than a month later.
Jiang Luo opened his eyes. A faint sword intent emanated from his entire body.
He held out his palm. A phantom black sword aura rose inch by inch from it.
With a thought, the black sword aura shot out. In an instant, it swelled to hundreds of meters long, radiating an unstoppable, terrifying force.
"Master..." A Universe Level slave who was guarding him stared at the black sword aura in shock.
Even his body felt a faint tremor.
He was a Universe Level Fourth Rank warrior.
If even he felt a tremor, that meant the sword aura could easily kill him!
He had known his master was extraordinary, but seeing his Star Level master unleash such a terrifying sword aura was still hard to believe.
With a thought from Jiang Luo, the black sword aura split into thirteen smaller sword auras.
The sword auras shifted slightly, and a sparkling droplet appeared at each sword tip. The Thirteen Sword Phantoms could also unleash the power of the Origin Law.
He could feel that each smaller sword aura was as powerful as a full-force strike from a Universe Level Second Rank expert.
The key was that these thirteen sword auras could appear and vanish at will, and he could control them from a distance.
They only had to remain within the range of his sword domain.
And the sword domain of the "Thirteen Sword Fiend Body" extended a full nine kilometers!
In other words, the sword auras could control an area of more than a hundred square kilometers around him.
When the thirteen sword auras combined, their power rivaled a full-force strike from a Universe Level 7 expert.
After all, although he had mastered the seventh layer of the "Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map" and raised his life level to six times that of an ordinary human,
he could also maintain a Body Amplitude of fifteen times with the King Kai Fist for an extended period.
He could unleash ninety times the strength of an ordinary Star Level Ninth Order warrior, which was equivalent to the base strength of a normal Universe Level Sixth Order warrior.
He was still twice as weak as a Universe Level 7 expert.
The Thirteen Sword Phantoms had become his most powerful single-target attack.
Combined with Blood Rebirth, it was fair to say that no one below the Domain Lord level could threaten his life anymore.
Jiang Luo recalled the Thirteen Sword Phantoms and gazed into the starry sky. "It's time to set off for the Flint Star World!"
Half a month later.
Jiang Luo stood in the spaceship's control room, looking at a living planet not far ahead.
The entrance to the Flint Star World, controlled by Marquis Huanming, was on this planet.
Wu He's voice rang out excitedly from the intelligent space on his wrist. "At last, this day has come!"
He had been waiting for more than five thousand years, ever since the spaceship had crashed onto Luo Planet.
Jiang Luo felt the same way. He recalled the spaceship he had seen falling from the sky shortly after he had transmigrated into a primitive man.
It was because of that spaceship and Wu He that he had learned he had transmigrated into the Swallowed Star universe.
Jiang Luo took out a bronze mask and put it on.
"Stop. Your identity must be verified!" A Universe Level soldier from the Huanming Army stationed outside the entrance to the world stopped him.
Jiang Luo remained calm.
As a disciple of the Ancient Wheel Hall, not only were his whereabouts classified by the Universe Country, but the Universe Country had also created a false identity for him.
Only a powerful expert who had seen him in person could identify him by his soul aura.
Otherwise, even the World Lord stationed on this living planet couldn't discover his true identity.
After his identity was verified, Jiang Luo took a step forward, and space seemed to shift around him.
He found himself in what looked like a vast, primeval continent, stretching beyond the horizon.
Mountains, rivers, and forests dotted the landscape.
He could also see numerous streaks of light crossing the sky.
Jiang Luo adapted to the powerful gravitational pull inside the Flint Star World in very little time.
Then, disguised as a lone adventurer, he spent several days traveling to a remote, desolate mountain range.
According to the information he had looked up, the Flint Star World had been open to the public while the Flint Star Sector Lord was still alive.
Many adventurers had come to hone their skills.
After the Flint Star Sector Lord died, the Huanming Army, Obsidian Company, and other top forces had occupied the entrance to the world.
But even more people entered the world than before, especially Star Level warriors.
Every day, several million Star Level warriors explored and trained in the Flint Star World.
Of course, quite a few of them were Star Level slave legions stationed there by the top forces.
No matter how strong Jiang Luo was, he wouldn't dare take on a million Star Level warriors by himself.
So he had found a remote, sparsely populated place to open the World within a World.
Jiang Luo took out the token and activated it with his Spiritual Force.
"Rumble~~~"
Without warning, the entire Flint Star World began to shake violently.
The empty space not far in front of Jiang Luo suddenly tore open, revealing a pitch-black black hole!
Many Star Level adventurers in the distance were stunned.
"What's going on?"
"Is the world about to collapse?"
"No!" Someone seemed to realize what was happening, excitement on his face. "This commotion... It's the legendary World within a World! The World within a World that has opened several times before in the Flint Star World!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a streak of light and raced toward the source of the tremors.
"Haha! They say the World within a World holds the treasures left behind by the Flint Star Sector Lord!"
"Good heavens, a World Lord's treasure?!"
"The World Lord's treasure is mine!"
Streaks of light shot into the sky.
Some had heard about the bloody battles that accompanied every opening of the World within a World in the Flint Star World, but many adventurers who came here were hardly short on courage.
Some shrank back in fear.
But even more grew greedy at the thought of the treasure.
