Chapter 442 The Essence of the Nameless Sword Embryo: Analyzing the Ancestral Bloodscale!
Even if those lower-level Chaos Origin beings have combat power comparable to the God Emperor, they are, after all, beings who are born free from the constraints of the universe. Their life essence is not something the God Emperor can easily manipulate.
Chen Yuan initially felt that the probability of the seventh level corresponding to the Hunyuan level was not high, and now it seems that his premonition was correct.
"But whether it's the God Emperor or Hunyuan, it doesn't mean anything to me now."
He shook his head. Although the Primordial Hand could create all things, it required him to have relevant information in his mind, that is, items that the Primordial Eye had collected information about.
Looking across the entire universe, where could he find such high-level substances? The treasures he had come into contact with were at most at the first level of the God King realm.
Even though the Star Tower, this treasure, has surpassed the God-King level, that's because of the Ancestral Blood Scale. The material essence of the entire tower is no different from that of the materials used in the first level of the God-King realm.
Therefore, even though Chen Yuan could theoretically create materials at the God Emperor level, due to data limitations, he can currently only create materials at the first level of the God King realm at most.
"The greatest benefit of the Primordial Hand advancing to the seventh rank for me is probably that I can now perfectly decompose God-King level materials."
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "For example, that nameless sword blank. After I collect all the data inside, I can decompose it and convert it into energy reserves. When needed, I can create it again."
Now his Primordial Eye has reached the sixth level, greatly improving his efficiency in analyzing God-King level information.
Apart from the Star Tower, he can thoroughly analyze the complete information of both the Nameless Sword Embryo and the 322 treasures in the Duan Donghe Heritage Treasure Chamber.
Obtaining this information means he will have no shortage of materials below the God-King level, and it will also provide data support for equipment optimization.
"Therefore, my next focus in cultivation will be on improving the Primordial Eye, and I will strive to improve this secret technique to the point where I can analyze the secrets of the Ancestral Blood Scale as soon as possible."
After all, he had made an agreement with Luo Feng that he would return the Star Tower to Luo Feng when Luo Feng broke through to the Universe Venerable level.
"As for the Primordial Hand, there's no need to worry about it for now. Just accumulate energy slowly through transactions at the Primordial Tower."
"Based on the previous gap, with each tier increasing a hundredfold, then reaching the seventh tier at its peak would require five hundred billion units of energy—hmm?"
Chen Yuan was suddenly taken aback. He sensed the progress of the Primordial Hand and it seemed to be growing slower than he had expected.
"This ratio—wait, it's not 500 billion, it's 50 trillion?!"
His eyes were filled with disbelief: "The requirements for the seventh rank are not a hundred times that of the sixth rank, but ten thousand times?"
'
This is outrageous. At his current rate of accumulating the source of the Great Dao, it would take him forever to have any hope of breaking through.
A moment later, a look of realization flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes: "So that's how it is—"
The system informed us that the requirements for the seventh rank had increased dramatically because the God Emperor level was already at the point of almost being enslaved.
A powerhouse at this level is already able to survive outside the Source World, and there is a fundamental difference between them and the life forms within the Source World. Naturally, they cannot be defined by the rules within the cage.
There's a saying that goes, "The amount of accumulation required to take a step into the God Emperor realm is even more than the amount of accumulation required to cultivate from scratch to the ultimate God King realm."
This is why not only the Primordial Hand, but also the Primordial Eye, require a surge in experience after reaching the seventh rank, as they both belong to the branch chapters of the Primordial Life Law.
"Never mind." After learning the truth, Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly: "Anyway, whether it's the seventh or eighth rank, it won't affect me now. Let him improve slowly."
"The most important thing for me right now is to upgrade the Primordial Eye as soon as possible so that I can analyze the blood scales of the progenitor."
Chen Yuan recalled the descriptions of Bloodscale in the original work.
"This primordial blood scale is one of the three scales of the Primordial Ancestor of Myriad Stars, and it contains the profound mystery of the fusion of the Dao of Life and Death."
"I'm determined to get this information! So I need to speed things up and try to finish collecting the information on the Ancestral Bloodscale before Luo Feng breaks through!"
Fortunately, there are still at least ten thousand years before Luo Feng leaves the Beast God Realm, so Chen Yuan is quite confident. After all, the Eye of Primordial Chaos is only one step away from revealing the secrets of Bloodscale.
"More than halfway through the sixth rank —"
Chen Yuan sensed the progress of the Primordial Eye. After forty-two years of cultivation, the proficiency of this secret technique had reached 47%!
If he increases his observation ability by another 3%, he can obtain the level of a God Emperor.
"With this level of proficiency, I only need to analyze one more God-King level item at most."
Chen Yuan nodded secretly: "Almost there, we can analyze the nameless sword embryo now."
He hasn’t touched the nameless sword embryo all these years precisely because he can carry this treasure with him and isn’t confined to the treasure room!
After all, although there were many treasures in the treasure room, he could not take them with him and could only stay there and analyze them slowly.
If he hadn't sailed the Tomb Ship into the Black Patterned Stone Pillar and taken advantage of the time acceleration, the Primordial Eye would have taken many more years to break through to the sixth rank, let alone be more than halfway through.
Even so, the time flow rate in the treasure room is only about 300,000 times faster. However, if he analyzes it in the cultivation space, the time flow rate can be increased by another 30 times, resulting in a terrifying 10 million times acceleration effect.
That's right, Chen Yuan's idea was to use the cultivation space to quickly complete the analysis of the nameless sword embryo, and then let the proficiency of the Primordial Eye successfully break through 50%.
Afterwards, he can also use the ten million times acceleration in the cultivation space to comprehend the secrets of the Ancestral Blood Scale deep within the Star Tower!
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan had a thought and directly took out the Nameless Sword Embryo. Then he created a phantom clone and opened the Primordial Eye to comprehend and analyze it.
The wonder of the Primordial Life Law lies in this: as long as one masters a certain chapter, one can unleash any form of clone, incarnation, or illusory consciousness without any restrictions.
Just like now, one of his avatars is continuing to analyze 322 treasures in the treasure room, but in the cultivation space, his illusory clone can also simultaneously use the Primordial Eye to analyze the Nameless Sword Embryo.
As for Chen Yuan's true self—he was still conducting research on divine power and did not want to be distracted.
Since his computing power is sufficient, it would be best if his clone could do the work for him.
Thus, with time accelerated ten million times in the cultivation space, the clone's analysis of the nameless sword embryo progressed rapidly. In less than a year outside, he had already completed the analysis of this treasure, which was suspected to be a "primordial embryo".
At the same time, his Primordial Eye gained another 4 points of proficiency, just reaching 51%!
However, Chen Yuan did not rush to take out the Star Tower to comprehend it, because as the analysis of the Nameless Sword Embryo ended, he finally understood the essence of this treasure.
Just as he had initially guessed, the nameless sword embryo was indeed a primordial embryo.
Unlike the brilliant and sharp Yuan embryos in the Duan Donghe inheritance, this sword embryo was once broken and is a defective product among Yuan embryos.
A broken embryo not only loses all its power but also its potential for growth, and can only be used as an ordinary weapon.
Even though it was later pieced together using amazing technology, this sword blank could never recreate the glory of its original form.
"No wonder this treasure, which is suspected to be a primordial embryo, appeared in an unknown ruin and was coincidentally obtained by the Dark Teacher."
Chen Yuan suddenly realized: "It's not that the divine object is hiding its power, but that this sword embryo has indeed lost most of its power. After a long period of time, even the few remaining secret patterns have been worn away, and it has even fallen to the level of an ordinary supreme treasure."
Looking at the sword blank in his hand, Chen Yuan sighed inwardly—even with his skills, if he were to complete the secret runes, it would be impossible to restore this sword blank to its full glory; at most, it could only be forged into a supreme treasure.
Want to evolve into a God-King level secret treasure? There's not even a sliver of hope!
Fortunately, although the original embryo was broken, its material was still intact.
For this reason, this treasure still brought him some God-King level information, which enabled the Primordial Eye to break through smoothly.
"Now that the initial goal has been achieved, you can gracefully retire."
Shaking his head, Chen Yuan saw a white light emanating from his hand, while the nameless sword embryo disintegrated inch by inch within the white light, until his hand was nothing but emptiness after a moment.
"Converted 80 billion Sources of the Great Dao? It seems that God-King level materials are indeed valuable."
Chen Yuan was quite satisfied with this quantity.
Unexpectedly, just decades ago he was still troubled by the optimization of Chaos level, but in the blink of an eye his energy reserves have exceeded 10 billion, enough to optimize several Chaos level treasures.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan was eager to upgrade, but unfortunately his research on the divine power route made little progress, and he had not even broken through the 10081-fold gene barrier yet.
This is perfectly normal. After all, it has only been less than a hundred years since he started his research. Even if he had time acceleration, it would be impossible for him to produce results so quickly.
He has only studied a small portion of the ordinary life materials in the primordial universe, and it will take at least several hundred years to complete the research.
Even after studying all these materials, Chen Yuan felt that he would still find it difficult to break through the limitations of the perfect gene, because these materials were all related to life, and there were also inanimate materials waiting for him to study.
After he has studied all the materials in the original universe, he is confident that he can break through the first layer of limitations and improve his own genes by at least 20,000 times.
As for the 30,000-fold bottleneck—that depends on whether the materials he bought from the various true gods are powerful enough.
However, the research on divine power is not something that can be accomplished overnight.
In the original story, Luo Feng spent hundreds of millions of years researching before reaching the threshold of 90,000 times the genetic potential. Even with the system's help, Chen Yuan didn't believe he could complete this path in just a few hundred years.
In fact, Chen Yuan's goal was to break through 30,000 times the genetic barrier before Luo Feng left the Beast God Realm and achieve an Infinite Divine Body within 100,000 years.
As for the perfect divine body—he sees no hope for it yet, and may have to find a breakthrough from the world beasts in the future.
After recovering his thoughts, Chen Yuan destroyed the nameless sword embryo and then took out the Star Tower and threw it to his clone. The clone then opened the Primordial Eye and looked over eagerly.
"As expected—new information has appeared in the Star Tower."
Chen Yuan blinked. In his vision, besides the progress bar of the Star Tower itself, a bright red progress bar appeared at the deepest part of the Star Tower.
Ancestor Blood Scale!
When he gained the vision of a God Emperor, he indeed discovered the traces of the Progenitor Bloodscale!
"Very good! Using the Primordial Eye as a medium and with the help of the system, although the analysis is extremely difficult, at least the progress bar is moving."
As long as the progress bar keeps moving, he will eventually finish analyzing all this data!
Chen Yuan also breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, just as he had expected, the Primordial Eye, which was more than halfway through the sixth rank, was able to analyze the Ancestral Blood Scale.
Otherwise, given the skyrocketing difficulty of advancing to the seventh rank, if we had to wait until we were halfway through the seventh rank to analyze it, who knows how many years it would take? In any case, it would definitely not be enough to finish all of this before Luo Feng broke through.
As for now—Chen Yuan sensed the efficiency of the clone's analysis and found that at this speed, even with the ten million times acceleration of the cultivation space, it would still take at least twenty to thirty thousand years in the outside world.
"fine."
Chen Yuan nodded slightly. He could accept this timeframe, since the proficiency with the Primordial Eye would continue to improve during this period, and the subsequent analysis efficiency would also increase.
According to his estimate, the final timeframe would be between 12,000 and 15,000 years, which should be enough time to finish before handing it over to Luo Feng.
"In the original story, Luo Feng stayed in the Beast God Realm for 180 million years, which is equivalent to 18,000 years in the outside world."
"Even if Luo Feng is stronger than in the original story, he probably won't advance much further. After all, the gap between his realm and the Lord of the Universe is still too great, so his understanding of the laws is of little use."
"In the end, it still comes down to the techniques of the Secret Pattern School."
That's why Chen Yuan wasn't worried. Besides, even if Luo Feng came out early, so what? He could just give him some benefits and borrow a few thousand more years. He figured his junior brother Luo wouldn't mind.
With the Star Tower issue resolved, Chen Yuan finally felt relieved and could now calmly collect information on the Ancestral Bloodscale.
"Speaking of which, I remember the secret contained within the Ancestral Blood Scale is the Dao of the Fusion of Life and Death, right? Could I perhaps glimpse the power of the two Great Daos of Life and Destruction from it?"
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan felt a little excited. After all, these were two great paths, and even just glimpsing one of them would bring him immense benefits.
His virtual universe is so powerful precisely because it is related to the Great Dao of the Soul and contains illusory power.
So he began to examine the data analyzed by his clone with great anticipation. Although it had been a short time, the data he obtained was quite considerable, but it was nothing compared to the complete information on the Primordial Ancestor's Blood Scale.
However, Chen Yuan was soon disappointed because he found that he couldn't understand anything!
"I was wrong, this is not the basic information I wanted at all."
He sighed softly, "Because the information contained in the blood scales is the Dao of the Fusion of Life and Death, not simply the Dao of Life and Destruction."
"I haven't even grasped the basic power of the Great Dao, and directly facing the Dao of Fusion is like reading a book written in a foreign language!"
Chen Yuan felt like someone who hadn't even grasped the laws of the universe, facing a fusion law at the level of a universe master, with only one thought in his mind.
What is this? And what is that?
It can only be said that the fusion of the Great Dao is completely beyond his scope. With Chen Yuan's current level, he can at most come into contact with a branch of the Great Dao and slowly understand the entire Great Dao from the basics.
If he's immediately confronted with the final challenge, he'll gain nothing but bewilderment.
"Most importantly, just like the laws of fusion, this Great Dao is also completely integrated, unlike any single Great Dao."
Chen Yuan was helpless. Because of this, he couldn't even obtain a single piece of information about the Great Dao from these materials. The Dao of Life and Death seemed to be completely welded shut, and there was no way to break it apart.
"I thought I was going to come into contact with the Dao of Life and Destruction — well, let my clone slowly gather knowledge here, it will definitely come in handy later anyway."
"As for the Dao of Life and Destruction, I'm afraid we'll have to start with the Primordial Universe and the Beasts of the Realm."
"It won't be too late to come into contact with the information about the Ancestral Bloodscale after I have gained some understanding of the power of these two Great Daos."
After making his plan, Chen Yuan ignored the information and activated the shield with a thought, letting his clone slowly collect data while he returned to his research.
Thus, with each of the several clones performing their respective duties, time passed quickly.
