Hongning Base City.

Hong sat in his office at martial arts headquarters. Six open books lay scattered across the sandalwood tea table before him—the Jiang Family's New Form-Intent Manual. He had requested them and studied and deduced each volume one by one.

He had pondered them for over twenty days, yet gained little.

He could not understand it.

These six secret manuals, which he considered worthy of only "profound" or "decent" evaluations, had somehow produced a fierce man whose force amplification reached 12 times?

Hong did not think the Jiang Family had deceived him. After repeatedly studying the recording of that battle, he could indeed glimpse the mysteries of Dragon Body Form, Bear Arm Form, Eagle Claw Form, Chicken Leg Form... and other Form-Intent techniques in Jiang Zhe.

What Jiang Zhe used was the most orthodox Xingyi Six Arts!

"Just like Thunder God and I back then, we integrated ancient martial arts and ancient yoga, forging our own paths... Jiang Zhe found his own path through ancient Xingyi, and his talent for technique comprehension should far surpass Thunder God's and mine!"

A rare smile appeared on that cold, stern face.

Hong had been in a very good mood lately. After nurturing Earthlings for so many years, he had finally begun to see returns. A genius had risen who could, in turn, contribute back to them.

Still, compared with waiting for others to produce results, Hong wanted even more to research something himself. This was a grandmaster's little pride.

"Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. That is a clumsy method... Reaching that level is thanks to the system of the Xingyi Six Arts!"

"In truth, the New Form-Intent Manual is harder to practice than World Destroyer and the Ninefold Thunder Blade. Learning all six secret manuals is unsuitable for widespread promotion among martial artists... Only those with extremely high comprehension can study all six manuals at once, then unify the 'Six Arts' with astonishing talent."

"Even so, with the current version of the New Form-Intent Manual, perfect force amplification would only approach Thunder God's level. It would be difficult to double it and reach Jiang Zhe's level."

"He..." Hong raised a brow. "He's a BUG!"

At that moment, the intelligent system suddenly sent Hong a message. It was highlighted in red, reminding him not to overlook it.

"News concerning Jiang Zhe?" Hong immediately turned serious.

After opening it, numerous details came into view: the leak of Jiang Zhe's location coordinates, the mastermind behind the incident, and more.

After learning Jiang Zhe's force amplification multiplier, Hong had placed him under invisible protection.

Within Earth's communications network, anything involving "Jiang Zhe" would be captured, compiled, investigated, analyzed, and screened for threats by the intelligent system.

Hong's face turned livid.

"Over twenty years of peace have truly fattened your courage! Is it because I have never acted against a councilor that you dare behave so recklessly?"

"Li NanSheng!!!"

"You've repeatedly pulled petty tricks while hiding within Hanxia, trying to shake my position. Do you really think I'm made of clay?"

Hong seemed to question the void. "Why did he target Jiang Zhe?"

The office lights dimmed, and a holographic screen unfolded out of thin air, playing a blurry recording.

It was precisely the content from that old smartphone.

Li NanSheng could never have imagined that his entire past would be dug up and subjected to a dimensionality-reduction strike from cosmic technology!

"It could actually pierce the Black God Set. That spear... so that was the secret the Jiang Family had been concealing!"

Hong was very interested in that spear.

After all, he himself used a spear. That 2.6-meter dragon-carved spear, extravagant beyond measure, made even him somewhat envious.

As the investigation went deeper, records from before the Great Nirvana were eventually unearthed.

"That spear is actually a Jiang Family heirloom? It is said to date back to the Sui and Tang Dynasties?"

Hong immediately lost interest. He had thought the Jiang Family had discovered some ancient civilization ruin and wanted to see whether he could get a share.

Jiang Zhe, whom Hong had judged to be a "BUG," was now facing a dangerous "BUG fix."

The pulsing Life Force Field was like a forging hammer, while Jiang Zhe's body was the raw material being hammered.

The connection between spirit, flesh, bone, blood... grew tighter and more compact under the repeated forging, until that awkward sense of looseness completely faded away, forming a complete individual!

The three stars began flashing in perfect synchrony, like the breath of origins, containing a special charm.

The Life Force Field dissipated.

Life Evolution had temporarily come to an end.

A smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Zhe's lips.

From this moment on, he was a "perfect" lifeform with a 3-times Genetic Level, the kind that could be inherited.

Theoretically, he was no longer an Earthling, but a New Species classified among Cosmic Humans.

Once he advanced to the Cosmic Venerable level in the future and established a Cosmic Nation, he could fully call himself royalty among humanity, comparable to the Sky Wolf of the demon race.

Without warning, a strand of powerful will suddenly descended!

The space around Jiang Zhe instantly froze. The smile on his lips stiffened in place, and droplets falling from the rock layers hung motionless in the air.

His entire Inner World froze with it.

An inconceivable power flooded into Jiang Zhe's body. It both helped him perfect his Life Level and examined him.

Finally, it rushed into the Original Core.

In the eyes of that will, which radiated tyrannical pressure, the space within the Original Core was merely a patch of dark-purple land, with nothing special about it.

Dao Tree? Axe? Divine Crystal? Golden Leaf Pages?

No. There was nothing!

After circling through Jiang Zhe's body and discovering nothing it could do, it found even his life composition flawless, without any errors or omissions. He was a fully evolved new race.

...That made it seem rather unnecessary.

It recorded the Diagrams of the new race's life composition, then integrated the secret patterns Jiang Zhe had drawn on his chest with beast blood, forming a blood-red Banner Mark that it branded onto Jiang Zhe's forehead.

Only then did that will, radiating endless tyrannical pressure, withdraw.

Perhaps... in some future One Reincarnation Era, Jiang Zhe's "kin" would appear—nurtured by the Primal Universe according to Jiang Zhe's template.

With parents clearly identified, eating everything would only give you balanced nutrition.

"Where am I?"

"The Australian Continent, underground rock layers... I, just now..."

The murmur at his lips turned into a whisper in his heart.

"I cultivated a 3-times Genetic Level, completed the first stage of the Life Blueprint's cultivation, reached the Hero level, and created a new human race. Then..."

Jiang Zhe touched the mark on his forehead and sensed the additional Innate Arcane Technique in his mind.

"The Primal Universe's will came here, and it even granted me an Innate Arcane Technique?"

Jiang Zhe's expression twisted in discomfort. He did not look particularly satisfied.

"I have to say, you really know how to cut corners!"

"You directly turned the external training method of the Life Blueprint—Conqueror—into an Innate Arcane Technique?"

"Hiss, ah~ thank you so very much!"

Jiang Zhe looked as though he had lost trillions of Hunyuan Units.

"Big Brother Primal, your family has such vast wealth. Couldn't you give me a clone talent? I know you've rewarded others with one before!"

Sigh. Thinking about the twelve top-tier Starry Sky Behemoths really made one feel the disparity of the world.

The Golden Horn Beast—could it even be played without being nerfed?

"A Shu, A Fu."

"Clones! Clones! Clones!"

"Important things must be said three times. The universe is too dangerous, I need to stay alive!"

"The Primal Universe can't hear my thoughts, but you two can hear them, right?"

After repeatedly drilling the point into his cheats, Jiang Zhe began examining the results of completing the first stage of the Life Blueprint's cultivation.

The five stages of the Golden Human Life Blueprint: Wuxian Constellation were divided as follows—

Hero Bloodline, 3 times!

Demigod Bloodline, 10 times!

Bronze Bloodline, 22 times!

Silver Bloodline, 181 times!

Golden Bloodline, 1810 times!

After becoming a Hero Human, one had officially joined the organization, and one's life genes could be fully inherited by the next generation.

It was not merely an all-round threefold increase. One would also possess an Innate Arcane Technique.

Innate Arcane Technique—Super Strength!

Put simply, there were no fancy tricks. It was simply a twofold increase in power.

Familiar?

Of course it was familiar!

One of the Golden Horn Beast's three innate talents—Enhancement!

In truth, among the Innate Arcane Techniques possessed by the many races of the universe, this type of amplification-based combat Innate Arcane Technique was likely the most common.

Find a Divine Body Amplification secret technique to cultivate, and you could achieve the same effect.

Furthermore, if an amplification secret technique and an Innate Arcane Technique were stacked, the resulting amplification multiplier could not be calculated entirely through multiplication. There would be "loss" in between.

When the multipliers were small—such as 2, 4, 11, 15...—it was imperceptible, practically nonexistent.

But the closer one got to the 100 Times limit, the greater this "loss" became.

For example, a 2-times Innate Arcane Technique multiplied by a 40-times amplification secret technique would not necessarily produce 80 times. It might be 60 or 50 times... the precise "loss" was uncertain.

There were not that many loopholes in the universe for you to exploit.

Multiplying two amplification-type secret techniques and directly reaching the 100 Times Body Amplification limit?

Even a dog would shake its head at that!

Of course, those situations were considerations for calculating Body Amplification after reaching the Immortal Level in the future.

In the early stages, at the present stage, what was used was Strength Amplification. Multiply however you liked.

"Overall, the Super Strength talent is still very useful in the early stages."

"Also, in the final four stages of the Life Blueprint, the Super Strength talent will ascend layer by layer as well. It will not remain unchanged."

After understanding the Super Strength talent, Jiang Zhe shifted his attention to the Innate Arcane Technique bestowed by the Primal Universe.

Conqueror!

—After conquering a target's "body" and "heart," it would cause them to drop "Essence of Source," which would be automatically collected and stored within the Banner Mark.
