Third Layer of Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique

Back at Sky Orchid Plain, Zhou Yuan looked at the enormous sum of four million Hunyuan units in his account, and his eyes instantly lit up. The first thing he thought of was cultivating the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique.

The Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique was one of his fundamental cultivation methods. It could not only increase his genetic multiplier and body size, but also improve his comprehension. Most importantly, as long as he consumed resources, he could cultivate it successfully, and it would not take too long.

No sooner thought than done, he exited the Virtual Universe and summoned his butler, Qian Hong.

A moment later, Qian Hong appeared in Zhou Yuan's spacious living room. With a respectful expression, he bowed slightly and asked, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"

Zhou Yu got straight to the point. "I need a large amount of recovery nutrient solution. Domain Lord level will do. Can it be purchased on the Purple Zenith Continent?"

Qian Hong respectfully replied, "Your Highness, there are no local sales points on the Purple Zenith Continent. However, you possess Purple Chen Pavilion's highest-level membership and enjoy a forty percent discount. You may also request delivery. You only need to place an order through the Virtual Universe."

Zhou Yuan nodded and asked, "All right, I'll place the order now. Roughly how long will delivery take?"

"It needs to be shipped in from outside the Purple Zenith Continent, so it will take around three days," Qian Hong answered truthfully.

"Fine, then that's settled. I'll place the order first. Receive the goods when they arrive," Zhou Yuan said.

"Yes, Your Highness. Then I shall take my leave." Qian Hong respectfully bowed and slowly withdrew from the villa.

Following Qian Hong's instructions, Zhou Yuan placed an order with Purple Chen Pavilion through the Virtual Universe for one million tons of D-grade recovery nutrient solution, spending a little over five thousand Hunyuan units in total.

Looking at the remaining funds in his account, Zhou Yuan felt a trace of regret. According to his calculations, cultivating the fourth layer of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique required resources worth more than ten million Hunyuan units. The funds his senior brothers and sisters had given him were still far from enough.

But he had just received so many meeting gifts, and he was too embarrassed to ask his senior brothers and sisters for more resources. He could only suppress the thought.

Looking at the funds in his account, Zhou Yuan thought that since he did not have enough to cultivate the fourth layer, he might as well deduce the Artifact Refining Secret Art. The Tempering Secret Art he had previously deduced was too crude. It was actually difficult for Zhou Yuan, with Domain Lord-level origin power, to refine fourth-grade origin power weapons. This concerned his grand plan of making money.

Zhou Yuan directly ordered one million Hunyuan units' worth of Universe Crystals. These were not eligible for discounts, costing him another million Hunyuan units.

A superior Tempering Secret Art would make artifact refining easier for Zhou Yuan. Not only could it allow him to refine fourth-grade origin power weapons, it could also enable him to refine fifth-grade origin power equipment, and even equipment used by Immortals.

Days passed one after another, and the three-day deadline vanished in the blink of an eye.

That morning, Qian Hong received the goods delivered by Purple Chen Pavilion. He immediately came outside the villa and used the communicator to notify Zhou Yuan, who was in seclusion.

After receiving the nutrient solution and Universe Crystals, Zhou Yuan followed Qian Hong to the room in the training grounds where the ultra-large nutrient pod was placed.

It was a room more than ten thousand meters long, wide, and high. Inside stood an ultra-large nutrient pod. The pod was ten thousand meters long and five thousand meters high and wide, entirely forged from F8-grade Azure Radiant Stone Mother.

Zhou Yuan walked to the nutrient pod and injected the one million tons of nutrient solution he had ordered into it. Then he instructed Qian Hong beside him, "I'm about to begin cultivating. No one is to disturb me."

"Yes, Your Highness." Qian Hong respectfully acknowledged the order, slowly left the room, and firmly shut the door.

Zhou Yuan took a deep breath, turned around, and lay down inside the nutrient pod. As the hatch slowly closed, the pale blue nutrient solution submerged his body. The warm fluid enveloped him, bringing a comfortable sensation. He closed his eyes, sank his consciousness into his sea of consciousness, and began circulating the cultivation method of the Third Layer of Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique.

The Third Layer of Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique was similar to the first two layers. It involved constructing secret patterns through soul power, linking the secret patterns with origin power, then using the resonance between origin power and spiritual power to mobilize the spiritual power and origin power throughout the body, tempering the body to enlarge it and raise one's genetic level.

With the cultivation experience of the first two layers, coupled with his increased strength, Zhou Yuan was already thoroughly familiar with the entire process. Although the secret pattern structure of the third layer was nine times more complex, it did not take him long to construct the complete secret pattern structure in his sea of consciousness.

Next came the stage of using origin power to communicate with the secret patterns. Zhou Yuan stabilized the secret pattern structure while carefully mobilizing his origin power, connecting with the secret pattern structure piece by piece.

This step was far more difficult than merely constructing secret patterns with spiritual power. The slightest mistake would cause the secret patterns to collapse, rendering all his previous efforts futile.

Zhou Yuan's first attempt failed, and the secret pattern structure in his sea of consciousness instantly crumbled. He did not lose heart. After making slight adjustments, he began constructing the secret pattern structure again.

After repeated attempts, three days later, Zhou Yuan finally succeeded in circulating his origin power through the entire secret pattern structure once, and the secret patterns were successfully linked.

The following resonance posed no difficulty at all. Zhou Yuan was already highly practiced at it. In an instant, he successfully caused his spiritual power and origin power to resonate.

The moment his spiritual power and origin power resonated, the secret pattern structure in his sea of consciousness began rotating slowly. Every secret pattern operated according to a particular law, mysterious and profound, like the entire universe turning in flawless perfection.

As the secret pattern structure moved, the spiritual power and origin power throughout Zhou Yuan's body were mobilized. They rapidly circulated through his body along the special paths guided by the secret pattern structure. Zhou Yuan soon lost control of his body and could only allow that strange force to transform it.

As his spiritual power and origin power circulated, a strange force spread out from the secret pattern structure in his sea of consciousness. It instantly traveled throughout his body along the paths of origin power circulation. The spiritual power and origin power in Zhou Yuan's body were rapidly consumed.

Streams of warmth rose within him, as though countless invisible hands were gently caressing every inch of Zhou Yuan's flesh, skin, bones, and even every cell. An incomparable sense of comfort erupted from within.

At the same time, the nutrient solution in the nutrient pod was rapidly consumed, replenishing Zhou Yuan's spiritual power and origin power and continuously providing energy for the transformation of his body.

Second by second, Zhou Yuan's body gradually began to grow, slowly becoming taller. From two hundred meters to three hundred, four hundred, five hundred... until he reached two thousand meters. Only then did Zhou Yuan's body finally stop growing.

At this moment, his enormous physique was like a small mountain. His muscles were knotted all over, radiating a terrifying sense of power.

The instant his growth stopped, a golden light erupted within Zhou Yuan's body and instantly enveloped him entirely. The golden light continuously washed over his body, transforming his genes.

Zhou Yuan could clearly sense his genetic multiplier continuously rising, from 120 times to 121 times, then to 122 times, steadily increasing.

After an unknown amount of time, the golden light enveloping Zhou Yuan's body slowly faded, revealing his powerful physique. The genetic multiplier of Zhou Yuan's body had finally risen to 240 times.

Zhou Yuan did not immediately get up. Instead, he lay quietly in the nutrient pod, feeling his strengthened body.

A few minutes later, Zhou Yuan slowly opened his eyes, opened the nutrient pod, and activated Myriad Transformations. After shrinking his body to two meters tall, he flew out of the nutrient pod.
