The Only Possibility

Luo Feng watched the Starry Sky Behemoth Ancestor disappear, then swiftly descended into the vast forest below, landing by a lake. He sat cross-legged, closing his eyes in silent contemplation. His mind gradually calmed completely. Luo Feng then opened his eyes and began to ponder the situation: “Teacher Zuoshanke paid a considerable price to secure this opportunity for me, allowing me to enter the core of the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance! But… how can I defeat the Ancestor’s clone? Becoming a Cosmic Supreme Being… that’s too distant for me.” “Create a Cosmic Overlord’s ultimate technique?” Luo Feng secretly shook his head. “My understanding of laws is very low, barely at the threshold of a Universe Venerable.” “To create a secret technique, one must first have a foundation in understanding laws.” “I have no foundation at all, how can I create one?” “Even if I base it on the Beast God’s artistic conception… my Beast God’s artistic conception is only slightly higher than my understanding of laws.” Luo Feng secretly shook his head. Understanding of laws and Beast God’s artistic conception are the principles behind secret techniques. Understanding of laws means complete comprehension, while Beast God’s artistic conception, though not fully comprehended, is entirely memorized through billions of simulations. “But my understanding of laws and Beast God’s artistic conception are both very low. To create a Cosmic Overlord’s ultimate technique? How is that possible!” Luo Feng looked around. “Teacher Zuoshanke brought me here. Could it be that this Beast God Realm can help me achieve this goal?” Luo Feng shot directly into the sky, transforming into a streak of light, and swiftly flew towards the nearest Golden Beast God statue. … The Golden Beast God, an embodiment of the fusion laws of space and gold, was also the path Luo Feng cultivated. Whoosh. Luo Feng landed in front of a majestic Golden Beast God statue. He saw this giant, one-horned lizard tearing at the ground with its thick front right claw, its long tail gently swaying, curved in mid-air. The entire statue’s scales were covered with intricate secret patterns, completely different from the Beast God statue Luo Feng himself possessed. A new set of patterns. It also gave the entire statue an aura of peace and tranquility. It seemed as if the Golden Beast God was leisurely strolling, casually scratching the ground with its hoof-like claw. “Hmm?” Luo Feng looked up, a puzzled expression on his face. “I clearly feel this is like a law embodiment, but why are the patterns on the scales different?” After studying it for a long time, Luo Feng couldn’t understand. Whoosh! Luo Feng shot into the sky and flew towards another Golden Beast God statue. After all, the Golden Beast God was the one he understood best among the Eight Great Beast Gods. The other Golden Beast God statue also immediately gave Luo Feng the feeling of being a law embodiment, but that Golden Beast God exuded an incredibly terrifying ferocity, as if it was about to attack. The patterns on its scales were different again. … One Golden Beast God statue after another, each one different. Some were angry, tranquil, joyful, frenzied, resolute, roaring… In various states, the scale patterns of the Golden Beast God in different states were also different. Moreover, in those statues, some Golden Beast Gods attacked with sharp claws, some with tails, some with sharp horns… It seemed any part of their body could be used to attack. … After examining the Golden Beast Gods, Luo Feng then looked at the Thunder Beast God, Light Beast God… and other Beast God statues. The aura and pressure from these statues were far, far stronger than those left by Xiluoduo back then. Luo Feng even felt that the essence of these statues was already very close to the small Beast God statue he possessed. “The Eight Great Innate Beast Gods.” “Each Beast God has numerous statues, and each one seems to fully express the fusion laws.” Luo Feng secretly marveled. After viewing the Eight Great Beast God statues, Luo Feng continued to wander through the Beast God Realm. On the vast plains, on ancient trees, on rock walls, at mountain peaks, at the bottom of lakes… various secret technique carvings were left in many places. Approaching these places, one could feel the waves of pressure emanating from these carvings! Some were purely secret patterns, while others were detailed introductions to law secret techniques. Secret techniques left by generations of Starry Sky Behemoth powerhouses. Some weak, some strong! There were dozens of Cosmic Overlord ultimate techniques, and countless Cosmic Overlord peak techniques and Universe Venerable-level techniques… including close-combat weapon secret techniques, psychic weapon secret techniques, illusion secret techniques, divine body amplification secret techniques, soul amplification secret techniques… dazzling Luo Feng. “My soul amplification secret technique only amplifies by a little over 32 times. Although the Golden Horned Beast has amplification secret techniques, Myriad Forms of the Cosmos is a relatively elementary amplification secret technique, with a limit of only 36 times. Most of the amplification secret techniques here can reach over 80 times, and some even reach a limit of 100 times.” Luo Feng was very pleased. If he memorized more secret techniques, divine body amplification secret techniques, soul amplification secret techniques… he wouldn’t need to find other ways; he could completely cultivate them to their perfect limit in the Beast God Realm. Of course, having secret techniques didn’t mean success. Just like many who received general inheritances, only a handful could truly receive complete inheritances. … In the Beast God Realm, within the universe owned by the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance. The vast world stretched endlessly. On the peak of a majestic mountain, Luo Feng leaned against a rock, looking at the boundless world, sighing: “Such exquisite secret techniques. These Cosmic Overlord ultimate techniques indeed possess unfathomable power. Even Teacher Chaos City Lord’s ultimate techniques are only at this level. Unfortunately—I’m seeing them all vaguely.” Even with some secret techniques having annotations, Luo Feng’s understanding of laws was too low, making everything seem hazy, like looking at flowers through a fog. He understood nothing! “Cosmic Overlord ultimate techniques are placed before me, with explanations and annotations, yet I can’t understand them. And you want me to create one?” “Teacher Zuoshanke, you have too much confidence in me.” Luo Feng was helpless. This was a treasure trove… Just those Beast God statues alone allowed Luo Feng to observe the artistic conception of each innate Beast God in different states. Luo Feng felt that many of the doubts that had plagued him for years were suddenly cleared. Moreover, Luo Feng had a feeling—different scale patterns produced different pressures. And each one was like a law embodiment… This contained a secret. “I feel that each statue should be a super ultimate technique,” Luo Feng muttered to himself. “And there should be some connection between the various statues. It’s just that my realm is still too low to see through it.” Luo Feng was initially confused, vaguely sensing this, but later, when browsing various secret techniques, he found that most creators of these secret techniques had an appendix at the end—“enlightened by observing a certain Beast God statue.” This immediately made Luo Feng realize that these statues were extraordinary. “Enlighten, how to enlighten?” “Many of those who created those ultimate techniques were Cosmic Overlords. How can I enlighten?” Luo Feng secretly shook his head. “Teacher Zuoshanke, you might lose that peak supreme treasure,” Luo Feng said softly, then suddenly froze. “No!” Luo Feng suddenly stood up. “The Ancestor is powerful, but Teacher Zuoshanke isn’t foolish either,” Luo Feng muttered to himself. “Comparatively, Teacher Zuoshanke knows my background better. Since he dared to make the bet, it means he must have some confidence. That is to say, there’s a certain possibility for me to achieve it—so where is this possibility?” “Where?” “How to achieve it?” Luo Feng vaguely felt that he should have a way to achieve it, but he couldn’t think of it for a while. … He pondered for three days but couldn’t find a solution. “Forget it, it’s 100,000 eras, which is 1 billion years. There’s no rush for such a long time! For now, I’ll fully dedicate myself to cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual… Nine Tribulations… Nine Tribulations…” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. “Cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual can completely allow my Golden Horned Beast clone to reach the perfect gene level!” “Last time, I obtained the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos.’ This time, I might get another innate secret technique.” “Even if I don’t.” “The Golden Horned Beast should be able to use ‘I Am the Cosmos’ by then. This innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos’ requires such a massive consumption of divine body, even a Cosmic Overlord ultimate technique might not be so outrageous. And at that time, my consciousness received a bestowal, and the power of that light spot felt much stronger than a Cosmic Overlord. This ‘I Am the Cosmos’ secret technique should be considered a Cosmic Overlord ultimate technique!” Luo Feng was secretly delighted. Yes, the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos’! “The Ancestor only asked me to defeat his clone, he didn’t say I couldn’t use innate secret techniques.” Luo Feng chuckled to himself. “That’s right, like Howling Mirror King, who is merely an Immortal, his innate secret technique’s power is considered at the level of a Cosmic Hegemon ultimate technique. When I reach the perfect gene level, the ‘I Am the Cosmos’ secret technique I receive will clearly be much more heaven-defying.” “Hahahaha…” “100,000 eras?” “I won’t need 100,000 eras; I can finish it in 100 years. In the original universe, only about 3 days would have passed.” Luo Feng secretly anticipated, he had a strong feeling that judging by the commotion when he obtained the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos,’ its power was definitely not inferior. Coupled with the fact that even its minimum activation consumed such a powerful divine body, it would surely meet the standard. “Hmph hmph.” “By then, the Golden Horned Beast will be able to use ‘I Am the Cosmos,’ and it will definitely be able to defeat the Ancestor’s clone, which can only use ‘Cosmic Overlord peak techniques.’” Luo Feng suddenly saw the light; he hadn’t been able to think of a way before, but now he was confident. He had also looked at the various secret techniques in the Beast God Realm, and although he saw them vaguely, he felt that ‘I Am the Cosmos’ was not weaker than any of them! … Filled with anticipation, Luo Feng began to fully immerse himself. The tail, the two hind claws, the wings, the upper back, and the head of the Golden Horned Beast clone—each of these seven areas had at least 10 Blood Luo Crystals fused, allowing for a maximum gene amplification of 10 times. Meanwhile, the right front claw, left front claw, and back had all fused 100 Blood Luo Crystals… reaching a maximum gene amplification of 100 times. As he cultivated—the Golden Horned Beast’s life gene level continuously increased: 7000… 7500… 8000… 8500… 9000… 9500… When the sixth tribulation of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual was completed, the Golden Horned Beast’s life gene level reached approximately 9900 times! “Just a little bit away from the perfect limit.” Luo Feng was filled with heroic spirit. “The seventh tribulation!” The Golden Horned Beast continued to cultivate the seventh tribulation, steadily increasing its life gene level, approaching that legendary limit. Just like how the Abyssal Sea clone eventually reached its limit… Finally, in the 62nd year after entering the Beast God Realm, the Golden Horned Beast clone’s life gene level also reached the perfect limit.
