Chapter 444 Successive Breakthroughs! Divine Power Level 1
Chapter 444 Successive Breakthroughs! First Level of Divine Power
Chen Yuan's primary goal at present is to continue studying the essence of life structure in order to further improve his own genetic level.
The 19999-fold increase is simply the result of his first breakthrough and subsequent refinement. As he comprehends more of the life structure, he will inevitably achieve a second breakthrough, and even a third or fourth.
As Chen Yuan had predicted, 180 years after his second period of seclusion, he was inspired by the structural diagram of a tenth-order material called "Chaotic Golden Feather".
After sixty years of refinement, Chen Yuan's genes finally broke through the 2-fold bottleneck and reached a level of 22000 times.
Although the apparent increase in gene multiplier was not as high as that of "Ink Trace Azure Gold," the difficulty of Chen Yuan's continued research was actually increasing as his foundation became stronger.
Although he gained the opportunity for a breakthrough this time because of the Chaos Golden Feather, he had already comprehended more than 95% of the material basis of the original universe before that. It was only after accumulating knowledge and experience that he was able to break through the bottleneck.
"I can sense that my comprehension will be much smoother from here on out. Perhaps there won't be any major bottlenecks before I reach the 30,000-fold increase in gene density."
Although this was just Chen Yuan's intuition, it was also a premonition he had accumulated over the years.
In fact, even the bottleneck of 20,000 times the gene is not a difficult thing, after all, he only took more than two hundred years to break through it.
If we're talking about a truly challenging feat, only the 30,000-fold increase in genetic power—which is the first level of divine power—can barely be considered a bottleneck.
Even so, as long as Chen Yuan comprehends the optimized divine power research route in sequence, breaking through the third bottleneck is only a matter of time.
"According to the optimized data, to break through the bottleneck of the first level of divine power, I only need to study all the matter in the original universe to 100% and then comprehend the essence of some of the matter in the cosmic sea."
He had already comprehended 95% of the first half, and about 4% of the remaining part belonged to the essence of matter, while the last 1% was the physical material of the true gods.
However, Chen Yuan planned to start with the easy materials and move on to the difficult ones. It was not easy to comprehend the materials at the True God level, so he planned to wait until he had finished comprehending the primordial universe materials, then use the materials from the cosmic sea to tide him over, and finally move on to the True God materials.
This ensures a smoother improvement in his genetic level.
So, in the following period, Chen Yuan first spent eighty years thoroughly understanding the last 4% of the substance, and incidentally, he increased his genes by 23500 times.
He then shifted his research focus to the matter of the cosmic sea, starting with life materials below the level of true gods and then moving on to other material materials.
Only when all of this is over will it be time for the last 1% of true god materials.
This part of the research is also a huge project, because the cosmic sea is a collection of life from the previous two cycles of reincarnation, and the types and quantities of materials far exceed those of the original universe.
After all, one has only experienced a small part of the cycle of reincarnation, and its resources, whether in terms of life or other materials, are far from abundant.
But the previous cycles are different; not only are the eras more complete, but there are also two of them!
Although many weak lives have already disappeared in the cycle of reincarnation, Chen Yuan has his own way: to reverse time and retrieve all the creatures that have been extinct in the river of time.
Of course, although Chen Yuan can exercise the power of resurrection, he still cannot resist the underlying rules—that is, the effects of the passage of time and the power of the Great Destruction of Reincarnation must be borne by these lives themselves.
Therefore, normally, Chen Yuan could not resurrect these lives from the previous reincarnation era from the past, and in fact, he did not need these lives to actually come back to life.
What Chen Yuan needed was simply the structural components of these lives.
Therefore, all he needs to do is record the composition of these lives with the Primordial Eye at the moment these lives are reborn and fall after reversing time and space.
Over the years, Chen Yuan has been comprehending the existing structural diagrams while collecting information about these beings from the previous reincarnation era.
With time accelerated by tens of millions of times, after he had finished studying all the primordial cosmic matter, he had also collected most of the structural information about the extinct cosmic ocean life, which allowed him to seamlessly continue his research.
As time went by, Chen Yuan's skills also gradually improved.
Of course, it wasn't just genes that were improved during this period, since the cultivation of the other clones didn't stop either, but was carried out simultaneously.
Four hundred years into Chen Yuan's second seclusion, while sharing the harvest of his clone, he discovered that the Abyss Whale clone had completed its research on the fusion of the Laws of Difference and had begun to tackle the final hurdle in the fusion of the two laws—the fusion of spacetime.
When this harvest was shared by all the clones, the consciousness that was studying the essence of the runes in the virtual universe also made a breakthrough, and the research on the void-level runes instantly increased from 50% to 70%.
This means that Chen Yuan's mastery of Void-level runes has even surpassed that of most Void True Gods, and even the lords of the two holy lands may not know as much as he does.
He then began to refine the secret runes related to "Universe in the Palm," causing the level of this secret technique to leap to the late stage of the Void Realm.
Even his other secret technique, "Extreme Point Sword Light," finally broke through its limitations, rising from the peak of True God to the early stage of Void level.
Moreover, thanks to the extreme penetrating branch power contained in the Extreme Point Sword Light, although this secret technique is not as high-grade as the Universe in the Palm, it far surpasses it in single-target attack, making it still the strongest single-target secret technique in Chen Yuan's hands.
This is the harvest of the Abyss Whale clone and the virtual universe consciousness over the years. As for the Nether Sea clone, its improvement is not significant, and the current Nine Nether Sea is basically still the same.
The main reason is that Chen Yuan's original body has been improving its genetic level after studying the structure of life, while the Youhai clone needs a lot of time to reassemble its body each time due to its large size.
In addition, it takes a long time to restore divine power to its peak, which means that every time the Nether Sea clone manages to reorganize itself and improve its genetic level, it encounters the once-in-a-century clone sharing event.
As a result, before he could fully restore his divine body from the previous one, he began the next reorganization process, leaving him no time to do anything else, let alone expand the limits of the Nether Sea.
So, over the centuries, the maximum diameter of the Nether Sea clone has not only not expanded, but has actually shrunk considerably.
Chen Yuan didn't care. Anyway, the total amount of divine power wouldn't be small, more than enough to power a battery, so he just left it alone.
Finally, when Chen Yuan shared the memories with the Soul Devouring Beast clone, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he had finally completed the early stages of the Eternal Primordial Spirit Sword Intent.
Of course, what surprised him wasn't that, but that it meant the Soul Devouring Beast's cultivation mission was complete and it could come to assist him in studying the structure of life.
As long as the mental barrier is activated, the clones will not affect each other. He can give a portion of the materials to the clones for research, and once the barrier is removed, he can obtain double the results!
However, due to the fact that his other clones all had important tasks and could not spare the time, Chen Yuan could only temporarily suppress this idea until the Soul Devouring Beast clone finished its cultivation task, at which point it could finally come over to help him with the research.
Thus, after Chen Yuan went into seclusion for the third time, his research on the divine power route began to advance rapidly.
Especially during the first century of information sharing, Chen Yuan was pleasantly surprised to discover that, due to the "Formless" innate secret technique of the Soul Devouring Beast clone, he could directly transform into a research subject.
Then, through the power of the mind to control himself, the clone can quickly grasp everything about the research subject, at least several times more efficient than Chen Yuan himself.
From then on, he handed over the research on life forms to his clones, while his true self turned to the research on matter.
With the help of his clone, Chen Yuan's research speed on divine power increased several times over. The research that originally took thousands of years to complete was shortened to eight hundred years.
"The new structural diagram is complete!"
After the eighth sharing, Chen Yuan quickly modified his own life structure, finally bringing his gene level to 29999 times!
"In less than three thousand years, I have stood at the threshold of the first level of the divine power path."
Chen Yuan was very satisfied with this.
This took far longer than he had initially anticipated, thanks to the help of the Soul Devouring Beast clone.
"Now, I can finally begin to study these materials of the true gods."
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan took out a section of the enormous snake's body, which was a million kilometers long.
These are body materials contributed by the Dream Demon Ancestor. There's nothing we can do; the demon race is just too poor.
Since the Demon Ancestor resurrected him, the entire demon race has fallen into a state of poverty, forcing these two demons to sell their physical materials in exchange for two supreme treasures, thus restoring the race's status.
It was precisely because of the example set by the two demons that other true gods in the primordial universe saw an opportunity and followed suit, selling most of the materials of their original bodies.
After all, compared to the most powerful treasures, the cost of restoration is much cheaper, so why not take advantage of this deal?
Getting back to the main point, considering the speed at which the Soul Devouring Beast clone could research living beings, Chen Yuan handed over most of the True God-level life materials to the clone, leaving only one-fifth for his main body to study.
He then activated the shield again, and his main body and clones each began their own research.
It must be said that the materials of the true god level are extraordinary and are fundamentally different from the materials he had studied before. The life structure diagram of each true god has greatly inspired Chen Yuan.
In just a few decades of research, he hadn't even fully grasped the first material, yet he felt that the bottleneck of 30,000 times the gene was already beginning to crumble.
As the centennial approached, Chen Yuan even felt that he could break through with a single thought. He was just thinking about the once-in-a-century sharing that was about to arrive and preparing to see how his clone was doing.
After all, when it comes to the research of life materials, the Soul Devouring Beast clone is far superior to him.
Sure enough, when Chen Yuan deactivated the shield, his clone brought him a pleasant surprise—a perfect life structure diagram that complemented the structure he already possessed.
"The information about inheritance is indeed correct. Primitive cosmic life forms born in the same batch all share commonalities in their essence, especially true for true gods who have evolved to the extreme."
Chen Yuan couldn't wait to combine the structural diagrams developed by his clone with the structure he had mastered. After several years of research (internal time), he finally formed a more powerful and perfect structure.
Gazing at the three-dimensional graphic that appeared in mid-air, its perfect structure filled him with a sense of excitement: "I have a feeling that the layers of this new structure are definitely more than 30,000 times greater."
With that in mind, Chen Yuan no longer hesitated.
"break down!"
"Reorganize!"
In the next instant, Chen Yuan's original body transformed into divine power factors and began to reorganize according to the new structural diagram, and soon a brand new body was born on the spot.
"42000 times!"
Sensing his physical condition, Chen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, his expression one of immense surprise: "It's actually exceeded that by so much. I have to say, it's no wonder that we are life forms born from the same batch in the primordial universe."
He originally thought that it would be great if it could exceed 35,000 times, but reality gave him a big surprise, and it directly exceeded 40,000 times!
"I still have a considerable amount of the original divine materials from the primordial universe. It seems that after studying these materials, my life level could potentially exceed fifty thousand times!"
Chen Yuan's face was filled with excitement: "In this way, I'm only ten thousand times away from the second level of divine power, and I still have a large amount of material on the True God of the Cosmic Sea that I haven't studied!"
Once I fully comprehend this part of life material, I may be able to break through to 60,000 times the gene, and this process will not even take more than 10,000 years!
It should be noted that he initially anticipated reaching 60,000 times the genetic potential within 100,000 years, but now he expects to achieve it within 10,000 years.
All of this is thanks to the help of the Soul Devouring Beast clone. The combination of the "Innate Secret Technique of Formlessness" and the control of mental power is simply an excellent combination for studying the essence of life.
Otherwise, at his normal research speed, it would take tens of thousands of years just to break through the bottleneck of 30000 times the gene, and 60000 times the gene would take at least 100,000 years!
This is still the fastest route after system optimization.
According to the original teachings of the Broken East River lineage, even with the help of time acceleration, those who can complete the first level within ten thousand epochs are considered geniuses on the divine power path.
"After I have studied all the known materials and broken through to the second level of divine power..."
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "I can use the secret technique of creating the Nether Sea Avatar to begin my ascent towards the third level, the Infinite Divine Body."
"Once the Infinite Divine Body is achieved, we should begin to study the physical composition of the World Beasts and carry out the final life leap."
This is his subsequent training plan!
Logically speaking, he had a chance to achieve a perfect divine body, but before truly reaching that threshold, Chen Yuan could not guarantee that he could complete it successfully.
"Never mind, let's stick to the plan first, and talk about it after I've completed the Infinite Divine Body."
Shaking his head, Chen Yuan prepared to continue his seclusion.
But just then, a message from Ireil suddenly appeared.
"Master, I'm about to break through to True God. Would you like to come and see?"
Upon seeing this message, Chen Yuan was immediately taken aback.
Is Irelia about to break through to become a true god?
