Chapter 364 Luo Feng departs! Breakthrough to Universe Venerable!
"The Sea of Nine Netherworlds?"
Luo Feng looked at the crimson liquid in the artifact with suspicion. Was this the material Chen Yuan had chosen for his clone?
To be honest, ever since he broke through to the Realm Lord level, he has been facing a dilemma in choosing his third avatar.
From Luo Feng's current perspective, no conventional race or life form is suitable as a vessel for his third avatar; even those with peak bloodlines are not qualified.
After all, even the Golden Horned Beast's basic life level is only ten times that of a regular human. From his current perspective, ten times the genetic potential is too ordinary.
Things are different now. Luo Feng is no longer the poor boy he once was, who would be overjoyed to buy a fragment of a Demon Slayer skin.
With his current wealth, he could easily choose a powerful special life form as his third avatar.
Therefore, over the past few hundred years, Luo Feng had carefully searched through the treasure trove, but he could never find a suitable one.
He wanted a being with an enormous divine body to serve as his third avatar, and the higher the genetic level of the avatar, the better.
However, the special life materials in the company's treasure trove are at most a few hundred times the genetic material.
That's fine, but the key issue is that none of these options are particularly large; at most, they're only a few hundred thousand kilometers away.
But in Luo Feng's opinion, a body would need to be at least hundreds of millions of kilometers long to be considered enormous. Unfortunately, he couldn't find one that was similar, so he decided to wait and see and ask the Chaos City Lord teacher later.
Unexpectedly, before meeting his teacher, the Lord of Chaos City, he had already taken another teacher and gained a senior brother.
Then the senior brother took out a basin of liquid, saying it was material prepared for him to create a clone.
To be honest, he had inquired about many special life forms over the years, but he had never heard of what kind of race the Nine Nether Sea was.
In response to Luo Feng's question, Chen Yuan smiled and explained, "Have you ever heard of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds?"
"The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds?"
Luo Feng blinked, looking completely bewildered.
"Well." Chen Yuan was almost stumped by Luo Feng's expression, but then he thought that the other party had never been to the Ancestral God Sect, so naturally he had never been in contact with the Nine Netherworld.
The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is only famous in the upper levels of the universe, so it is normal that these realm lords and immortals have never heard of him.
"You can think of this Lord of the Nine Netherworlds as someone whose strength is no less than that of your teacher, the Lord of Chaos City."
Chen Yuan explained, "The reason why the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is so powerful is entirely due to the innate talent of his physical body, namely the Nine Netherworld Sea."
"He can actually rival the Chaos City Lord teacher?!"
Luo Feng gasped in shock. Wouldn't that mean he was an invincible being in the primordial universe?
Of course, what he found even more incredible was that such a powerful body material had actually appeared in Chen Yuan's hands.
"This is certainly not the material of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds."
Faced with Luo Feng's question, Chen Yuan explained with a wry smile, "If it were the true form, you wouldn't be able to create it either; that's the Lord of the Universe!"
"Well." Luo Feng smiled awkwardly, having been so surprised that he had forgotten about the limitations of clones.
"This is a portion of seawater obtained from the 'World Lord Level' Nine Nether Sea. Of course, you don't need to worry about how it was obtained."
In fact, this material was not the one that the Dark Lord teacher had given him, because he had already used that material to create his clone.
The seawater he gave Luo Feng was a portion of the material he had specially reserved after his clone was created, before he began cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual.
After all, he had already become a disciple of Zuoshanke at that time, and knowing the original plot, he naturally knew that Luo Feng was his future junior brother.
Therefore, Chen Yuan had already prepared this seawater as a gift for Luo Feng after he successfully became his disciple.
"Thank you, senior brother."
Luo Feng called out "Senior Brother" again, without asking how the seawater came about; it was definitely a good thing to him anyway.
"Haha, one address is enough." Chen Yuan waved his hand with a smile, "Just call me Chen Yuan."
"I've gotten a lot of benefits from you, so it's only right that I call you senior brother."
Luo Feng chuckled, "Calling someone 'Senior Brother' gets you treasures; I wish I could call him that every day."
"You rascal!" Chen Yuan was speechless. He had only asked Luo Feng to call him senior brother out of some wicked fun, but he didn't expect the other party to be so obsessed with it.
"Haha, just kidding."
Seeing this, Luo Feng laughed and asked, "Chen Yuan, although I know that the Nine Nether Sea should be very powerful, I don't know what its characteristics are that make it worth your special mention."
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I have some strict requirements for my third clone. I don't know if the Nine Nether Sea can meet my needs."
"Don't worry, there's probably no place in the entire primordial universe more suitable for your clone than the Nine Nether Sea."
Chen Yuan smiled and asked, "I guess you want a giant clone, right?"
"How did you know?" Luo Feng was slightly surprised.
"Once you reach immortality, the size of your divine body becomes an important factor in your strength, which is not hard to guess."
Chen Yuan waved his hand, "And this Nine Nether Sea, let's put it this way, it can be called the largest special life form in the entire universe."
Largest volume!
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng was immediately intrigued and quickly asked, "Just how big is it?"
"The true form of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, the 'Nine Netherworld Sea,' has a diameter exceeding ten light-years."
Chen Yuan's casual remark made Luo Feng's eyes widen in astonishment: "How many?! Ten light-years!"
"It's over ten light-years, but no one knows exactly how many light-years it is."
Chen Yuan smiled and continued, "Of course, that's the size that only a Nine Nether Sea at the level of a Universe Lord can achieve, and the size of the Nine Nether Sea is related to the level of life."
"The higher the gene count and the higher the level of life, the greater the upper limit of the Nine Nether Sea's volume."
"Of course, compared to other special life forms, even the most ordinary Nine Nether Sea has a divine body that is far larger than any other life form."
Luo Feng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Then what is the volume of a Nine Nether Sea at the World Lord level?"
"Ten billion kilometers." Chen Yuan's answer made Luo Feng's heart flutter.
"Of course, I'm talking about the most extreme case, which is that the genetic level needs to reach the perfect genetic level, which is 10081 times the genetic level."
Chen Yuan said, "The normal Nine Nether Sea has a genetic level of only about 300 times."
Luo Feng felt his mood was like a rollercoaster, going up and down. Chen Yuan always liked to pique his interest before revealing bad news.
Taking a deep breath, Luo Feng decided to stop letting the other person's words affect his emotions and asked calmly, "Then, what is the diameter of a normal World Lord-level Nine Nether Sea?"
"A normal World Lord level? That's not important, especially not to you."
Chen Yuan gently shook his head, then dropped a bombshell: "Because the Nine Nether Sea—is actually a 'flesh-and-blood' life form."
"What?!" Luo Feng, who had just decided to stop being influenced, instantly lost his composure, staring wide-eyed as he asked, "You're saying the Nine Nether Sea is made of flesh and blood?!"
"That's right." Chen Yuan smiled. "That's why the Nine Nether Sea clone can cultivate the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual."
"You only need to cultivate to the fifth tribulation level to elevate it to the perfect gene level."
The Fifth Tribulation!
Luo Feng took a deep breath. He was only at the second tribulation, but that was enough to boost the Nine Nether Sea's genes by 1800 times.
This level of genetic understanding is beyond that of most of the special life forms he has ever heard of.
"How about it?" Chen Yuan asked with a smile, "Do you want this clone?"
"Yes! Of course I want it!"
Luo Feng nodded emphatically. Just hearing the description of this clone made his heart flutter. Indeed, as Chen Yuan said, it was the most suitable clone for him.
After Luo Feng collected the blood-red seawater, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "This is the second gift I'm giving you. There's one last one coming up."
"Anything else?" Luo Feng was taken aback and couldn't help but say, "Even if I call you senior brother, you've given me way too much."
Good heavens, even though Chen Yuan was very wealthy, Luo Feng was still a little uneasy about this series of gifts.
It should be noted that even when Master Zuoshanke became his disciple, he only received an ordinary treasure called "Star Chart".
"Don't worry, this is the last one."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Strictly speaking, this isn't a treasure I gave you; it should be considered a gift from your teacher."
"Teacher?" Luo Feng looked at the mountain hermit in confusion. Why would the teacher need to ask Chen Yuan to deliver the treasure?
At this moment, the Mountain-Sitting Guest understood what treasure Chen Yuan was referring to, and asked with slight surprise, "Are you sure you want to give him this treasure now?"
"Teacher, rest assured, I know what I'm doing."
Chen Yuan smiled, then looked at Luo Feng and said, "Luo Feng, you just heard the teacher talk about the other senior brothers."
Luo Feng nodded, and then Chen Yuan continued, "The treasure I'm going to give you is called the 'Calamity Armor,' a top-tier treasure armor."
"This treasure was originally in the hands of my second senior brother, 'Emperor Yan,' but in reality, Emperor Yan only used it temporarily. Our teacher actually prepared this treasure for the owner of the Star Tower."
"Several hundred years ago, I met Emperor Yan once, and I casually took the Calamity Armor from him, which I have kept ever since."
"Perfect timing. You have successfully recognized the Star Tower as your master, and it is well-deserved that you have obtained this treasure."
With a thought, Chen Yuan summoned the Calamity Armor and sent it to Luo Feng.
While the other party was refining this treasure, he continued, "Normally, you should only be qualified to activate the power of this treasure after you break through to the Immortal Realm."
"However, I've been bored lately, so I reforged this treasure and modified some of its effects, so that even if you don't meet the minimum requirements, you can still activate some of its power."
At this moment, Luo Feng had already refined the Calamity Armor and obtained the information contained within it. He understood that Chen Yuan was indeed right. According to the original requirements of the Calamity Armor, it needed to be driven by physical strength and had three forms.
Even just activating the first form requires 1 million times the power of a World Lord. Let alone a World Lord, Luo Feng even felt that even if he became an Immortal, he would probably have difficulty activating this treasure.
Fortunately, after being reforged by Chen Yuan, the Armor of Calamity gained an additional function: it can unconditionally grant the user ten times the base strength, with an upper limit of one hundred trillion times the power of a Realm Lord.
Furthermore, the performance of the treasure can be unlocked step by step according to the user's power level.
When the user possesses ten thousand times the power of a Realm Lord, the power of the Calamity Armor is equivalent to that of a top-tier treasure.
When one possesses 100,000 times the power of a Realm Lord, the Calamity Armor will be upgraded to an ordinary Supreme Treasure.
When possessing a million times the power of a Realm Lord, the Calamity Armor will be upgraded to a high-grade treasure.
As for the power of a world lord being ten million times greater, it naturally corresponds to a top-tier treasure.
Once the user possesses 1 million times the power of a Realm Lord, they can unlock the first form of the Calamity Armor.
Therefore, Luo Feng can still use the Calamity Armor even now.
Although he can only unlock up to the top-tier level of treasures, as his strength gradually increases, he will eventually unlock even more powerful abilities.
While Luo Feng was excitedly testing the performance of the Calamity Armor, the Mountain-Sitting Guest couldn't help but exclaim, "I didn't expect you could actually modify the Calamity Armor. It seems your treasure-refining skills have improved even further."
"Teacher, you flatter me." Chen Yuan smiled and said, "It's just modifying a supreme treasure, a trivial trick."
"By the way, Chen Yuan," Luo Feng said, having already put away his armor, "I just tried to activate the Star Tower, but it didn't work at all. Do you know why?"
"You, drive the Star Tower?" Chen Yuan was both amused and exasperated, explaining, "The reason is simple: your power is too low."
"Oh." Luo Feng wasn't surprised. He continued, "Then what level of strength is needed to activate this treasure?"
Chen Yuan didn't hide anything and said directly, "When you reach the Fangbei gene, break through to the Universe Venerable, and master the hundredfold power exertion, you can drive it with the divine power of the Nine Nether Sea clone. These conditions are indispensable."
"The requirements are so high!" Luo Feng couldn't help but glance at Chen Yuan, thinking that Chen Yuan was already able to drive the Star Tower more than two thousand years ago, how could his strength be so strong?
"Yes," Chen Yuan said with a smile, "So for the time being, let's leave the Star Tower with me. You can come back to me to get it after you meet the conditions."
"By the way, can I borrow your tower bead for a bit? I haven't finished some of my research on the Star Tower yet."
"Consider this soul defense treasure as rent for the Tower Bead I borrowed."
"No problem." Luo Feng nodded. Anyway, he didn't need the Star Tower for the time being, so it was fine to leave it with Chen Yuan.
Soon, Chen Yuan refined the tower bead again, regained control of the Star Tower, and said, "Alright, there's nothing for me to do here, I'll go back and continue cultivating."
"Luo Feng, your teacher has some instructions for you. Why don't you stay and listen?"
"Alright." Luo Feng nodded and looked at the Mountain Guest, saying, "Teacher, what are your instructions?"
"Luo Feng, I need you to go to 'Ice Prison Star'. The sequel to the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual is there—"
Before the mountain dweller could finish speaking, Chen Yuan had already left the Star Tower and could no longer hear the conversation between the master and disciple.
At this moment, the most important thing for him is to continue to sort out the laws. After all, this matter has reached its final stage. If Luo Feng had not successfully passed the Star Tower trial, he would not have made a special trip.
Now that Luo Feng has finished dealing with things, he can finally focus on his cultivation.
Soon Chen Yuan became immersed in cultivation, unaware of when Luo Feng left. As he delved deeper into his practice, the previously chaotic lines of law gradually returned to their proper places.
Time flies, and another 60 years have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the weather was fine and the sky was clear.
But as Chen Yuan opened his eyes, in an instant, wind and clouds gathered, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
Then a vortex of multicolored light descended upon his head.
"Finally—a breakthrough!"
Looking at the colorful vortex above his head, Chen Yuan murmured.
