After being taken in as a disciple by the Lord of Darkness, Zhou Qing was taken out of the Chaos Ruins by him.
Then, after a shift in Time and Space, he appeared in a magnificent palace.
Inside the main hall, besides the Lord of Darkness, there was also a tall, thin man.
He had an upward-curving horn on each of his ears, a third eye between his eyebrows, and wore dark blue scale armor.
Like the Lord of Darkness, Zhou Qing also sensed obscure Space-Time Law emanating from him, clearly indicating that he was also a Universe Master.
Seeing these familiar features, Zhou Qing vaguely guessed the person's identity.
" Zhou Qing, this is your senior brother, Lord Youhou. Why don't you come and pay your respects?"
The Lord of Darkness of a gentle climate.
really...
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing immediately bowed to the Lord Youhou.
"Haha, junior brother, you're too kind."
Upon seeing this Lord Youhou burst into laughter.
"Junior brother, this is a small token of my appreciation since we've just met."
Then, with a wave of his hand, a black light flew to Zhou Qing's front.
Zhou Qing stared intently and saw that it was a black armor covered with Law Secret Patterns, and the aura emanating from it was far stronger than the Heavy Gloom Claw he had recently obtained.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
After putting away the armor, Zhou Qing quickly expressed his gratitude.
" You Hou, you've really become generous these days, actually gifting me a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor."
Seeing this, the Lord of Darkness shook his head with a smile.
"Fine, if even you, the senior disciple, are like this, wouldn't it seem petty of me, as the teacher, not to reciprocate?"
After saying that, a stream of Flowing Light flew out from the Lord of Darkness's hand and landed in front of Zhou Qing.
This is a jade-like green lamp, emitting a strange fluctuation, and it looks quite extraordinary.
"You are currently only Undying, not fully grown yet. My biggest fear is that a Universe Master will enslave you."
The Lord of Darkness looked at Zhou Qing and explained.
"I tested you before; your mental fortitude is extraordinary, approaching that of Universe Master. Logically, you should be very difficult to enslave."
"But just in case, I will still bestow upon you a high-grade Soul Defense Supreme Treasure Azure Flame Divine Lamp, for your protection."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing was overjoyed and immediately put away the Azure Flame Divine Lamp.
Two High-grade Supreme Treasure, one of which is a soul Supreme Treasure; he really got a great deal by becoming his teacher.
"While Supreme Treasure are powerful, one must never rely on Supreme Treasure protection to act recklessly, or one day one will inevitably stumble and fall."
After Zhou Qing accepted the Supreme Treasure, the Lord of Darkness also issued a warning.
Zhou Qing immediately agreed.
"Hmm..." the Lord of Darkness continued, "I won't say much about understanding the laws. If you have any questions, you can go to the Virtual Universe to ask your senior brother."
"Furthermore, watching the combat videos, I noticed your considerable skill in Soul Secret Technique. How about this, I will pass on my ultimate technique, the ' Darkness Codex,' to you."
Then the Lord of Darkness took out a Space Ring containing his ultimate techniques and handed it to Zhou Qing.
Thank you, teacher.
Zhou Qing was overjoyed as he accepted the Space Ring.
Compared to his physical attack technique, Space Rift, his Soul Attack technique, Illusion Destruction, is indeed still lacking in refinement.
If one could obtain the Lord of Darkness's ultimate techniques for reference, one would surely be able to quickly perfect them.
Moreover, guided by the Lord of Darkness's ultimate techniques, it will undoubtedly be easier for him to create soul-related secret arts in the future.
"My identity as your teacher is special and cannot be revealed to the outside world, so you should claim to be your senior brother's disciple."
The Lord of Darkness smiled and nodded upon seeing this.
" You Hou, you must take good care of your little junior brother!"
"Junior brother, if you need anything, just ask your senior brother." Lord Youhou immediately patted his chest in affirmation.
After becoming a disciple of the Lord of Darkness, Zhou Qing returned to his residence in Chaos City.
Then, he took out the Supreme Treasure Armor given to Lord Youhou and refined it.
As expected of a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor...
A moment later, Zhou Qing showed a look of amazement.
Due to insufficient Law Comprehension, he could only initially refine this high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor.
If he only undergoes initial refinement, he can only use the first form of this high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor.
Even in its first form, this high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor can reduce the physical damage he receives to one percent.
Zhou Qing estimated that if he could completely refine it and use the third form, he could reduce the damage from material attacks he received to one ten-thousandth.
Of course, this reduction also has a threshold. If the damage that can be withstood exceeds the limit, the damage reduction may only be one-half or even one-tenth of what it used to be.
If subjected to too strong an attack, this high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor will be directly damaged.
However, this was temporarily irrelevant to him, because Zhou Qing believed that destroying this high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor would require at least the intervention of a powerful being among the Universe Master.
Then, Zhou Qing looked at the Azure Flame Divine Lamp, a high-level Soul Defense Supreme Treasure, standing to the side.
When refining the Azure Flame Divine Lamp, he briefly examined the secret patterns on it, but Zhou Qing found them obscure and difficult to understand.
High- Supreme Treasure Armor can weaken physical attacks, while the Azure Flame Divine Lamp, as a high-grade Soul Defense Supreme Treasure, can almost be immune to Soul Attack.
Breaking this immunity would likely require an extremely powerful Universe Master.
After Zhou Qing refined it, based on his mental will, there were very few things in the Primal Universe that could affect him through illusions or soul techniques.
After taking stock of the two Supreme Treasure he had acquired from becoming an apprentice, Zhou Qing took out the silver briefcase containing the Beast God Blood from his Space Ring.
Upon opening it, Zhou Qing discovered ten test tubes inside, each containing a drop of golden light.
However, Zhou Qing did not open it, but instead took out ten more crystals that were blood red and somewhat transparent.
Blood Luo Crystal...
Zhou Qing chuckled softly.
Because he joined the Virtual Universe Company halfway through the simulation, he did not receive the normal training process for geniuses, so naturally he had no opportunity to enjoy this treasure.
But now that he has obtained the Beast God Blood, he naturally wants to try refining the Blood Luo Crystal, and then integrate it with the Beast God Blood once he reaches its limit.
This is the only way to make the most efficient use of the ten drops of Beast God Blood obtained from the Virtual Universe Company.
As for the origin of the Blood Luo Crystal, it was naturally purchased by Zhou Qing using points.
After becoming his disciple, the Lord of Darkness directly transferred ten trillion points into his Virtual Universe account.
With this huge sum of money, he not only bought ten pieces of Blood Luo Crystal, but also upgraded all his clothes.
After cutting open his divine body, Zhou Qing deliberately prevented his Undying Body from healing itself, and then placed the Blood Luo Crystal on the wound.
The next moment, the Blood Luo Crystal generated a strange fluctuation, and then wisps of red threads darted into Zhou Qing's divine body.
Along with this, an extremely violent will assailed Zhou Qing.
But this ferocious will filled with shouts of killing was nothing more than child's play to Zhou Qing, and was shattered by Zhou Qing's will in the blink of an eye.
Subsequently, after the miraculous power of the Blood Luo Crystal merged into his body, Zhou Qing's entire body grew countless Black Scale Armor.
One...
Soon after, the scales disappeared, and Zhou Qing slowly opened his eyes.
continue!
Two... three... four...
With his strong willpower, Zhou Qing integrated the Blood Luo Crystal one by one into his divine body.
Ultimately, Zhou Qing's fusion failed on the ninth attempt.
It still doesn't quite match the Blood Luo Crystal...
Seeing this, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Blood Luo Crystal was a product of the Gold-Space Beast God after his death. Since his divine body was composed of lightning divine power, it was not very compatible with him.
Furthermore, since his human clone's genes were also only average, they naturally did not help him fuse with the Blood Luo Crystal.
The fact that he was able to integrate eight Blood Luo Crystal was entirely due to his strong will.
However, if you can't merge with him, you can't merge with him; he can always spend money on in-game purchases.
With that thought in mind, Zhou Qing opened the test tube and dripped the golden liquid into his palm.
In an instant, he absorbed the drop of the Beast God Blood.
After feeling the Blood Luo Power within him increase significantly, Zhou Qing absorbed another drop of the Beast God Blood.
After absorbing two drops of the Beast God Blood, Zhou Qing immediately felt his body undergo a transformation.
So this is the Black Warrior...
Feeling the powerful Blood Luo Power within him, Zhou Qing nodded.
With two drops of Beast God Blood, plus the eight Blood Luo Crystal he had previously absorbed, his Gene Multiplier had now reached 10 times.
Then, Zhou Qing absorbed all the remaining eight drops of Beast God Blood in one go.
From then on, his Gene Multiplier increased to 18 times, and his basic strength also jumped to 1.8 million times the power of Peak World Lord.
