A Shocking Transformation After 500 Years

If the Youhai clone could cultivate the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual, it would become a powerful combat force. But if not, it would be destined to only handle cultivation and logistical divine power supply. “It’s done!” The Youhai clone suddenly let out a thunderous laugh. “My life gene is evolving under the cultivation of the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual. What an incredible manual! Zuo Shan Ke truly lives up to his reputation as one of the Cosmic Overlords.” Luo Feng grew even more impressed by his enigmatic teacher, and at the same time, felt a sense of awe towards the pinnacle existences of the cosmos. If Zuo Shan Ke could create the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual, what about the other Cosmic Overlords? “The gap between me and them is still immense.” “For now, I’ll slowly cultivate and catch up. As for anything else, I’ll consider it once I have the strength to stand as their equal.” Luo Feng didn’t dwell on it, continuing his cultivation. He knew one thing: his strength was far from enough! Yet, he was undeniably fortunate. First, he had figured out how to transform his Youhai clone into a colossal ocean, and now, the Youhai clone could even cultivate the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual. While it could cultivate, completing the first five tribulations would require a significant amount of time. The Youhai clone was even larger than the Golden Horned Beast clone, making its evolution slower! Even with Luo Feng’s extensive experience, at its current pace, a single tribulation would take a hundred years to complete. While the Youhai clone cultivated the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual, his other clones continued to research Space Law and the creation of the third form of the Star Preaching Diagram and Bright Moon Strategy. A century passed in the blink of an eye. The Youhai clone, which had sat like a statue without once bursting apart, slowly opened its eyes and whispered, “The first tribulation is complete. My life gene level... is 900 times!” The first tribulation increased it by 3 times! From 300 times to 900 times... the sheer power of just the first tribulation left Luo Feng sighing with emotion. No wonder this secret technique was restricted by the laws of the universe. Initially, Zuo Shan Ke couldn’t even teach it to any life form, and it was only through the ‘Heavenly Soul Crystal’ that he could impart it to a single being. “I’m truly looking forward to it. To easily go from 300 times to 900 times, and next... it will be 1800 times.” “Continue!” The Youhai clone closed its eyes and began cultivating the second tribulation. To feel constant improvement was a truly wonderful sensation. Upon completing the second tribulation, the Youhai clone’s life gene level indeed reached 1800 times... With the third tribulation complete, the Youhai clone reached 3600 times... everything was unfolding as perfectly as anticipated. In the Primal Secret Region, where the Thousand Treasures River surged and flowed, within the highest palace. Six Universe Masters sat cross-legged, listening to the Chaos City Lord’s lecture from above. “Luo Feng’s gestation of his third clone, according to what he told me, should have taken just over 600 years. Once that clone was complete, he would break through to Immortal. But now, nearly 1000 years have passed, and there’s still no movement?” The Chaos City Lord turned his head, glancing into the distance. His gaze pierced through the palace walls, directly observing a distant palace. Inside that palace. The Earth human true body sat cross-legged, with Sky Array King standing guard beside him. “Luo Feng’s encounters are extraordinary; he’s continuously acquired several supreme treasures, often exceeding my expectations. It’s likely some special circumstance has arisen again, causing the delay. Since he hasn’t sought me out, let him resolve it himself.” The Chaos City Lord took a glance and then paid no further attention. At the very least, he was quite satisfied with Luo Feng as a disciple. Unexpected events weren’t a concern, as Luo Feng often brought him pleasant surprises. The Chaos City Lord then continued to instruct and guide the six Universe Masters below him. Time flowed on. Since the gestation of his third clone began, Luo Feng had been researching Space Law and creating ultimate techniques. Over a millennium had passed, and he had achieved considerable results in both areas. Meanwhile, the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual continued its incredibly steady, yet slow, progression, advancing roughly one tribulation every century. After 400 years of cultivation, the Youhai clone completed its fourth tribulation! Its life gene level doubled once more, directly reaching 7200 times! “A life gene level of 7200 times!” The Youhai clone sat cross-legged, its eyes shining like stars. It felt a surging power throughout its body. Before cultivation, it was merely 300 times, a very ordinary special life form. Now, it was 7200 times... far surpassing even the Chasing Insect King. “Perhaps even the Jiuyou Master’s life gene level is only around this stage,” the Youhai clone murmured. “Continue, the fifth tribulation!!!” The Youhai clone spoke softly, yet its voice was filled with boundless anticipation. “The fifth tribulation!” The Earth human true body, the Demon Killer Clan clone, and the Golden Horned Beast clone all opened their eyes, also anticipating the crucial fifth tribulation. Luo Feng had been immensely looking forward to cultivating the fifth tribulation from the very beginning. The Youhai clone’s life gene level slowly increased... 7200, 7300, 7400... 8000, 8100... 9000, 9100... “It has already surpassed 9000!” Luo Feng even paused his comprehension of Space Law, concentrating 99% of his consciousness on the Youhai clone, not daring to be careless in the slightest. He also felt that once the life gene level surpassed 9000, the evolution speed noticeably slowed, as if it had hit a bottleneck, with every tiny advancement consuming more time. 9500... 9600... At this moment, the Youhai clone’s life gene level had already surpassed many heaven-defying special life forms. Many unique special life forms hadn’t even crossed the threshold of 9000. “9900!” Progress became increasingly arduous. The life gene level struggled, desperately improving again and again, with extremely minute increments, finally approaching that critical threshold— “10,000!” Though difficult, the life gene level firmly established itself at this stage. “My life gene level has reached 10,000 times!” The Youhai clone felt the power surging through its body, growing increasingly excited. Then, suppressing its excitement, it continued to cultivate. “It seems I haven’t reached the limit yet. As long as I can still improve, I will continue to break through and advance.” It was indeed slowly improving. After breaking through 10,000, the life gene level became even harder to improve, with advancements being extremely subtle. After a long while... Luo Feng’s overall life gene level increase completely halted. At this moment... every inch of the Youhai clone’s skin, every muscle and bone, seemed like the most perfect creation in the universe! Its life gene had reached a state of absolute perfection. Even if the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual was a heaven-defying technique, it could no longer further enhance a life gene that was already flawless. “Perfect!” “Too perfect!” Luo Feng’s consciousness could even perceive the structure of every single cell. Whether macroscopically or microscopically, from any perspective, the Youhai clone’s body was utterly flawless. “The Youhai clone’s life gene level just surpassed ten thousand! It’s only slightly more than ten thousand...” Luo Feng’s consciousness could make a relatively precise judgment. “Crack, crack, crack, crack, pop, pop, pop~~~” The Youhai clone naturally absorbed energy, its height continuously increasing, and its body steadily expanding. The entire Youhai clone was furiously absorbing world power. “It’s just world power; I have plenty of it,” Luo Feng rejoiced. Neither the Golden Horned Beast clone nor the Earth human true body had experienced a sudden surge in size while cultivating the Nine-Tribulations Secret Manual. Even the Youhai clone hadn’t swelled in size when it reached ten thousand times, but upon achieving its most perfect state... It finally began to surge! It frantically devoured world power. Although its life gene could be called perfect, fortunately, it was only at the Sector Lord level, and Luo Feng could fully supply the energy it absorbed. Its volume continuously swelled! 20,000 kilometers tall, 30,000 kilometers tall, 40,000 kilometers tall... It didn’t stop. After a long while— When its entire body reached over 90,000 kilometers tall, the Youhai clone finally stopped growing. “Perfect.” Although Luo Feng didn’t understand why he had this perception, he just felt that a Youhai clone reaching this height... was its truly most perfect state. And just as the Youhai clone stopped growing, reaching over 90,000 kilometers tall... “Boom!” His entire inner world instantly froze. The Demon Killer Clan clone’s surprised expression also froze, the Golden Horned Beast’s head remained tilted upwards, the wind-blown weeds still bowed low, the surging waves in the distant endless ocean ceased, and even the scattered water droplets hung suspended. Including the Insectoid Queen and a multitude of Insectoid warriors, all were brought to a standstill. A profound hum. The Earth human true body was also the same, still sitting motionless with closed eyes. He likely couldn’t move even if he wanted to. Luo Feng’s most crucial ‘core’ was, at this moment, directly infused with a most mysterious power. In fact, when the third clone was gestated, the core had already undergone some transformation, but now... as this incredible power descended from thin air and poured into it, the core instantly underwent a profound metamorphosis. Its color also began to change. Fiery red, jade green, sky blue, earthy yellow, dazzling gold... finally transforming into a hazy chaos. This seemingly ordinary core seemed to contain endless mysteries. As this incredible power infused the core, it also permeated his ‘inner world’. Within the vast expanse of his inner world, this power exuded an endless, boundless pressure—a pressure that was impossible to resist, yet one that no one would even think of resisting. It was like a mother’s embrace, making every life form feel cherished and reluctant to leave. This was a pressure that was not overbearing in the slightest, yet it far surpassed that of the Chaos City Lord, and even exceeded Zuo Shan Ke’s! When this power poured into Luo Feng’s body, entering his core and inner world. The Chaos City Lord, who lived not far away, along with his subordinate Universe Masters, none of them could detect it. One must know... this was a space-time protected by the Thousand Treasures River, a space-time controlled by the Chaos City Lord! Yet, within this very space-time, the Chaos City Lord completely failed to perceive that power. While that mysterious and incredible power transformed Luo Feng’s core ‘nucleus’, the mysterious force that permeated his inner world directly enveloped the Youhai clone. The Youhai clone was completely and heavily enveloped by this mysterious power. “Where am I?” “I, I just... right, my Youhai clone just cultivated to a perfect limit, even surging in size to over 90,000 kilometers, and then, then my consciousness arrived here.” Luo Feng looked around, somewhat bewildered. It was a space filled with countless drifting light points. Each light point seemed to contain incredible power. Luo Feng even had a feeling that any single light point was more terrifying than the Sirius Master.
