"Now, I have mastered two supreme divine secret techniques."
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "According to the system's classification, the Extreme Point Sword Light is a true tenth-tier, ninth-level peak, while this newly created Spacetime Blast can only be considered an eighth-level peak."
"However, in terms of advancement potential, Spacetime Blast may break through to the Void-level secret technique before Extreme Point Sword Light."
There was no other way; of the tens of thousands of ruins he had explored over the decades, all of them involved void-level runes and were of the spacetime attribute!
Therefore, after these runes are transformed and applied to arcane arts, the one who benefits the most is naturally the Spacetime Blast, which specializes in the laws of spacetime.
As for the Extreme Point Sword Aura—this secret technique involves all ten laws. Although the simple spacetime runes also provide an improvement, it certainly won't be as significant as the spacetime blast.
And that is indeed the case.
As Chen Yuan expanded his search area from five trillion light-years to ten trillion light-years, he accumulated more and more spacetime runes.
Correspondingly, the Space-Time Shockwave Secret Technique also rapidly broke through to the ninth level, and within just thirty years, it soared to the peak of the ninth level, completely on par with the Extreme Point Sword Light.
"Unfortunately, even with so many Void-level secret runes, it is still impossible to advance the Spacetime Blast to the Void-level True God-level secret technique."
According to the division of the cosmic sea, his two major secret techniques have now reached the peak of the ninth rank, and it seems that he is only one opportunity away from the tenth rank secret technique, which is the threshold of the void level.
In reality, this thin barrier has blocked countless cultivators.
Throughout the entire Reincarnation Era, before the emergence of the Jin World, only the Primordial Ancestor was able to break through the peak level of the ninth rank and create a tenth-rank secret technique.
Of course, compared to these cultivators who couldn't see the way forward, Chen Yuan's situation was slightly better, since he had Void-level secret runes as a reference.
But he also encountered problems.
As Chen Yuan explored more and more ruins, he gradually discovered that the overlap of the Void-level runes was also increasing.
In fact, it is normal.
After all, the secret runes he comprehended were mostly of the spacetime attribute and related to concealment abilities, so it would be strange if the overlap was not high.
Moreover, Chen Yuan needs to first apply the secret patterns on these formations to treasure refining, and then thoroughly master them by continuously refining supreme treasures before he can try to apply them to secret techniques.
Each of these transformations is a process of eliminating the dross and retaining the essence.
After all, many aspects of the original spacetime runes did not fit his understanding. Chen Yuan also used treasure refining and secret techniques to gradually select and extract the essence before finally integrating a small portion of the runes into the secret techniques.
The number of successfully applied runes is less than one percent of the original Void-level runes.
While it's not hopeless to combine these secret runes to create a Void-level secret technique, it's still extremely difficult, only giving one a slightly better chance than those cultivators who can't see the road ahead.
"It seems that it's still too difficult to perfect a Void-level secret technique with just this part of the secret runes."
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly; he wasn't too disappointed.
After all, if someone can create a tenth-order secret technique (the division of the cosmic sea), they are confident in breaking through to the Void True God realm and passing through reincarnation, so it's normal for the difficulty to be a bit higher.
Even on the Origin Continent, Void Gods are no longer at the bottom. They can open a small shop in a city, support themselves, and survive for a long time, which is much better than those Gods who have no fixed abode.
More importantly, even true gods have a lifespan limit (three cycles of reincarnation), but void true gods have no lifespan limit and can live until the destruction of the source world.
"My experience is still insufficient."
Chen Yuan said quietly, "Although I have analyzed a lot of information with the Eye of Primordial Beginning, this information is either too high-level, far exceeding the level of a Void True God, and is difficult for me to understand at this stage."
"Either the level is too low, at most involving the True God level, but there's too little content related to the Void True God, which limits my ability to perform."
After creating the two ultimate secret techniques of True God, Extreme Point Sword Aura and Spacetime Shockwave, Chen Yuan could say that he had no more doubts about the cultivation of the True God stage.
If he hadn't wanted to forge a perfect divine body, he could break through to true godhood at any time by following the path of laws.
"To study the path of divine power, one needs to obtain the inheritance of the Broken East River."
"In addition, the Void-level and even subsequent data that I need can also be obtained through the inheritance of Duan Donghe."
This is Chen Yuan's main goal: to obtain the inheritance of Duan Donghe!
Of course, it will be hundreds of thousands of years before the Tomb Ship naturally appears in the world. If he doesn't want to wait, he will need to take the initiative to activate the inheritance.
In fact, with Chen Yuan's current skill in refining magical artifacts, he could open the Tomb Ship and begin the inheritance assessment ahead of schedule.
But all of this is contingent on him finding the Tomb Ship.
Although Chen Yuan already knew from the information in the original work that its location was in the Flame and Ice Domain within the Universe Ship.
But putting aside the fact that hundreds of thousands of years have passed and the location of the Tomb Ship may have changed, even if he found the location from the original story, how could the Tomb Ship not have a way to hide itself?
Even some true god-level relics know to hide themselves, so how could the Tomb Ship, as the place of inheritance of the Broken East River, openly reveal itself?
Not to mention that there is more than one Tomb Ship inside the Spaceship, but only the ship that was opened hundreds of thousands of years later carries the legacy of the Broken East River.
Therefore, Chen Yuan can only wait until the virtual universe covers the entire universe, so that he can find the location of the Tomb Ship through Irele's analysis.
Then, the legacy of the Broken East River begins!
"Just wait, it'll be ready soon."
Chen Yuan glanced at the panel; the optimization time for the virtual universe was only 80 years.
Once the simulation space is completed, he can spend 1 Sources of the Great Dao to instantly complete the optimization and obtain a virtual universe at the level of an Eternal True God!
"Let's continue exploring and wait for the optimization to be completed!"
Currently, Chen Yuan has explored more than 20,000 ruins and obtained more than two million sources of the Great Dao. However, he is still within ten trillion light-years and has not gone to any further places.
As we move further away from the original universe, more and more undiscovered relics are appearing.
According to Ireil's markings, the number of these hidden relics within a range of five trillion light-years is only slightly over ten thousand.
However, in this region spanning five trillion to ten trillion light-years, the number of hidden ruins reaches nearly 90,000!
Chen Yuan explored approximately 1.2 sites over the course of thirty years, roughly one-seventh of the total number of sites.
In other words, he would need to stay in this area for another two hundred years to explore all the hidden ruins.
However, as Chen Yuan mastered more and more spacetime runes, his efficiency in opening subsequent relics also increased, and in reality, it might not take that long.
Just like when Chen Yuan first started exploring the ruins, he only explored a little over 10,000 ruins in the first 30 years, but reached 12,000 ruins in the next 30 years. This was all due to his improved mastery of the secret runes.
And that is indeed the case.
As time went by, Chen Yuan was able to unlock the ruins at an increasingly faster pace.
Eighty years later, during which time he had opened 45,000 ruins and obtained more than six million Sources of the Great Dao!
He estimates that he will be able to complete the development of the remaining relics in about seventy years at most.
Unfortunately, although Chen Yuan has mastered many new spacetime attribute Void-level secret runes over the years, few of them are usable when converted into secret techniques. Therefore, he still has not been able to break through to the Void True God level with "Spacetime Shock".
But Chen Yuan had no mind to study the secret technique at this moment, because today was the day the Virtual Universe Judgment Secret Technique was finally optimized!
As the countdown reached its end, the Virtual Universe Secret Technique officially transitioned from the simulation space to the optimization panel, and then, with the injection of 9999 units of the Source of the Great Dao, the optimization task was completed instantly.
"It's done!"
The instant the mission ended, Chen Yuan immediately looked at the description of the secret technique, and saw on the screen:
[Virtual Universe: Rated as Tier 12, Level 9, Soul-type Mystic Technique.]
[After optimization, this secret technique contains a branch of the Great Dao of the Soul. Practicing this secret technique will yield the following effects.]
[1. As proficiency in arcane arts increases, one gains control over the power of illusory branches, with an upper limit of one percent of the full branch. [2. Virtual origin upgraded, core terminal algorithm optimized, producing stronger results with the same computing power.]
[3. The cosmic architecture has been upgraded, expanding the coverage of the virtual universe and enhancing network concealment and detection capabilities. This capability will increase with the mastery of arcane arts, reaching the peak of the Eternal True God level.]
"Not bad, not bad."
After reading the introduction to the new virtual universe, Chen Yuan nodded repeatedly, his expression full of satisfaction.
"The system has indeed completed the optimization perfectly according to my requirements."
"Once I complete the upgrade of the origin and architecture of the virtual universe, its coverage will greatly expand, and perhaps then I will be able to find the locations of the three forbidden zones."
Over the years, his virtual universe has also continued to grow, with its coverage area increasing from 30 trillion light-years in diameter to 50 trillion light-years.
That is, within 40 trillion light-years of the original universe, everything is covered by the virtual universe network.
Even so, he still couldn't find a single dead end.
"I refuse to believe it, are these three forbidden zones really that far from the primordial universe?"
"If we don't have 40 trillion light-years, then we'll expand to 100 trillion light-years, and if that's still not enough, then 200 trillion light-years."
As Chen Yuan pondered this, he extracted the virtual universe content from the optimization panel.
A moment later, he had mastered the method of upgrading the virtual universe.
"It's time to upgrade the network."
Thinking of the various abilities that the virtual universe would have after its upgrade, Chen Yuan couldn't wait any longer. He then sent a thought to the origin space of the virtual universe and summoned Ireil.
"Master, I'm here."
Irene appeared quickly. "What are your orders, Master?"
"Good news." Chen Yuan said with a smile, "The Virtual Universe Secret Technique has been optimized and upgraded to the peak of Eternal True God."
"Optimization complete?!" Upon hearing this, Irene's eyes lit up.
