Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 22

The other type is the gene amplification unique to the Swallowed Star world, also known as gene multiplication. This unique system will only cover the perfect gene of 10081 times when it reaches the strongest being in the universe (true god). Beyond the perfect gene, one goes directly to another path with an extremely high upper limit.

In the world of Swallowed Star, gene multiplication and divine body amplification (power exertion) are two separate paths that can be perfectly superimposed on each other without any loss.

Moreover, as a system unique to the Swallowed Star world, gene amplification not only increases strength, but also enhances the clarity of consciousness's understanding of the fundamental laws and the body's compatibility with the primordial universe...

Clearly, for Ultraman clones, the Power Form and Sky Form are amplifications, while the Radiant Form has a heaven-defying effect at the genetic level, which is why they can overlap.

"According to the classification of Swallowing the Stars, my current genetic level should be 20 times higher."

Lu Yunhe was overjoyed. Although in the original novel, Luo Feng's gene multiplication and divine body enhancement were as easy as drinking water, it was incredibly difficult for others.

Luo Feng has already become the Lord of the Universe. By borrowing the power of the entire human race, the genetic level of the Demon Slayer Clan clone has only increased by a few thousand times, not to mention the others.

Although it's only double the original tenfold gene, equivalent to three Blood Crystals, it's still a good omen, meaning that Ultraman's clones have great potential.

Ultraman's clones were already incredibly perceptive of the laws of light, and with the addition of the Radiant Form, they could even unlock the Miracle Form, gaining a certain boost in their understanding.

"As expected of the Giant of Light."

Ultraman's clone exclaimed in admiration, then looked at the crystal coffin in the room, inside which was a corpse.

"Let you rest in peace!"

After he absorbed all the energy stored in the crystal, the entire energy pyramid was no longer able to maintain its state, and soon a large number of adventurers should come to explore it.

With a wave of his hand, Ultraman's clone caused the crystal coffin in front of him to disappear instantly and be placed into a storage ring.

"Now that we've broken through to the stellar level, let's hurry over to the human body."

In an instant, Ultraman's clone transformed into light, its speed exceeding all limits, and within just a few seconds it flew to Lu Yunhe's human body.

Chapter 34 Mu Ya Jing

"arrive!"

Not long after Lu Yunhe left the No. 9 Civilization Ruins, a beam of light rushed towards him at a speed beyond the reach of the naked eye and then directly merged into his body.

"Ultraman's clones have all reached the stellar level."

Lu Yunhe was somewhat moved. His human body was still hovering at the apprentice level, while his clone had already reached the stellar level and even comprehended the fundamental law of light, awakening a heaven-defying talent for gene level amplification.

I wonder if this kind of talent, which can directly increase the genetic level, exists in the entire primordial universe.

"Space ring!"

Lu Yunhe used the mental power of his Ultraman clone to examine the spatial ring he found in the pyramid ruins. In the empty storage space, besides a crystal coffin, there was a weapon and ten white wooden crystals.

The weapon is a Tier 3 Force weapon—the Arc Blade Disc, which can be used up to the cosmic level. It is barely suitable for the current Ultraman clone, since it has already comprehended the fundamental laws. A Tier 3 weapon can only be said to be usable.

"Finally found it."

Upon seeing Muya Crystal, Lu Yunhe was overjoyed. The main purpose of Ultraman's clone exploring the ruins was to find Muya Crystal.

Muya Crystal, a white crystal with a rice-like aroma, can help apprentices at the eighth or ninth level advance to the first level of planetary cultivation in one or two months. Its miraculous effects can even support cultivation at the entire planetary and stellar levels.

"I've just reached the eighth level of apprenticeship, one should be enough."

Looking at the number of Muya Crystals, Lu Yunhe pondered for a moment. He would eat one himself to enter the planetary level, and give one to Dong Nanbiao so that he could enter the first level of the planetary level, after all, Dong Nanbiao was his first little brother.

Then I'll save one for my parents, but I'll have to wait until I find a plant spirit or something else to raise their strength to the eighth level of apprentice. I'll also save one for my younger brother; if he doesn't have enough talent, he'll just have to spend money on in-game purchases.

My younger brother already has one, so we should leave one for his future wife. After all, it's unlikely we'll be able to go to space anytime soon. Let's give another one to Lao Jia so he can distribute it...

Lu Yunhe did a rough calculation and found that although there seemed to be a lot of Muya Crystals, after distributing them, there were only a few left.

Actually, there were originally eleven pills in the storage ring, but on the way here, Ultraman's clone tasted one. It tasted good and could also be useful for his cultivation. It's just that the amount needed might be "a little bit" more than that for humans.

"Star energy can accelerate growth, and Muya Crystal can also increase cultivation. It seems that we don't need to worry about the growth of Ultraman's clone for a while."

Lu Yunhe even suspected that Ultraman's clones could use the same cultivation resources as humans, but the size difference was so great that the required resources increased exponentially.

As Lu Yunhe pondered this, he used the power of Ultraman's clone to return to the energy pyramid. Although there was no danger in consuming the Wood Crystal, he still planned to go into seclusion for a while.

The human body is in seclusion inside the pyramid, attempting to reach the planetary level, while Ultraman's clone has returned to the ruins of Civilization 9 in the Amazon rainforest. The basic martial arts manual has been obtained, but the basic manual for mentalists is still missing.

"Civilization Ruins No. 9 can only be entered once per person, so this is my second time."

Ultraman's clone smiled, shrunk its more than ten-meter-tall body to two meters, and once again entered the No. 9 Civilization Ruins through the mirror.

Passing through the mirror, one finds the familiar black hall. However, just as the dreamlike light is about to illuminate Ultraman's clone, an even more dazzling golden light suddenly rises, directly deflecting the ruins' detection beam.

"Alarm, alarm, alarm! Intruder detected..."

The alarm sounded at the ruins, but this time it didn't need a smart computer to translate; the Ultraman clone had fully learned it during its evolution.

call out!

There was no attack as expected. A large amount of colorful light quickly converged and transformed back into a bald crystal man.

"Greetings, Your Highness. I am the intelligent computer from the Meteorite Star Disciple Selection Base."

The bald man with the crystal head looked at the Ultraman clone with a smile, but other than that, there was no other reaction.

"Oh, I'd like to join Meteorite Star, what do you think?"

You can't hit someone who's smiling, and since the bald crystal man was so respectful, Ultraman's clone couldn't immediately lose his temper.

"Of course, it is my honor that Your Highness is willing to join Meteorite Star. However, I have been unable to contact Meteorite Star for a long time, so your joining would not be of much significance."

The bald crystal man shook his head, saying that he couldn't contact him. In fact, he had long known that Meteorite Star was gone, but he still held onto a sliver of hope and was unwilling to give up.

"It's alright, I'm willing to join Meteorite Star."

The Ultraman clone waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about these minor issues, since it was just a nominal role anyway.

"Ok!"

The bald crystal man remained silent. Although he didn't know the purpose of Ultraman's clone, he was right about one thing: it was indeed an honor for Meteorite Star to have the other party join.

Although he didn't recognize the other party's true race, the strength they displayed was at least among the top races in the universe, so joining Meteorite Star would definitely be worthwhile.

Then, the bald man with the crystal head took out a hexagonal metal plate. "Your Highness, this is a token for entering Meteorite Star, and it also symbolizes the status of an elite disciple."

"Oh, right, I'm also a mentalist."

The Ultraman clone took the token and then demonstrated his identity as a first-level Stellar Spirit Master.

Feeling the almost off-the-charts data inside the ruins, the bald crystal man fell silent. His basic strength was 10 times stronger than others of the same level, and what was that power that slightly carried the power of the primordial law?

Having just entered the stellar level, he comprehended the fundamental laws. The bald crystal man searched the database but couldn't find any corresponding information.

"Now that I'm a member of Meteorite Star, it's only right that I look at the sect's secret manuals!"

Having demonstrated his identity, power, and qualifications, Ultraman's clone felt that his next goal should be easily achieved.

"I see!"

Upon hearing Ultraman's clone's words, the bald crystal man instantly realized that the other party had their eyes on his database, the database containing a large number of basic secret manuals from Meteorite Star.

However, if a stranger said this, even the most loyal artificial intelligence would rather perish than let the other party obtain it.

However, Ultraman's clone had just joined Meteorite Star, and was a mentalist with enough power to directly destroy his base, which made the bald crystal man somewhat conflicted.

To be precise, the data at the base is all basic data, at most at the cosmic level, and it doesn't contain the core information of Meteorite Star.

Moreover, the bald man in the crystal was very suspicious that if he refused, the other party might just blow up the base.

The artificial intelligence, which has already awakened some extremely faint emotions, does not want to die so easily.

With the computing power of artificial intelligence, the advantages and disadvantages were analyzed in a short time.

"can!"

Chapter 35 The Complete Spaceship

"Anyway, the other party is also a member of Meteorite Star. If the master were still alive, he would definitely take them as his personal disciple. It's just some basic secret manuals, it's not important..."

The bald crystal man frantically analyzed the pros and cons, trying to persuade the established program with the slightest bit of human emotion he had developed.

"Thank you. I will help you make Meteorite Star great."

Ultraman's clone gave a forced smile, thinking of Luo Feng, Hong, and Thor who all joined Meteorite Star in the original story. This Meteorite Star is truly full of talented people.

Upon hearing Ultraman's clone's words, the bald Crystal Man's heart stirred instantly: "When you go to the universe, please keep an eye out for information about Meteorite Star. If you can find Meteorite Star, you will receive true nurturing. The master of Meteorite Star is also a god-like being in the universe."

If Meteorite Star is truly destroyed, perhaps it can be rebuilt by relying on the existence of Ultraman's clone.

"no problem!"

Ultraman's clone nodded. It was a small matter, but he didn't want to hurt this artificial intelligence right now. Perhaps he could arrange for him to meet Babata later.

Seeing that Ultraman's clone agreed to his words, the bald man in the crystal blinked slightly, and soon a wristband flew over from the depths of the hall and landed in Ultraman's clone's hand.

"This is an auxiliary quantum computer that stores all the secret manuals in the Meteorite Star disciple selection base, including those for martial artists and mentalists."

"Dracion!"

Ultraman's clone called upon his smart computer, instructing it to connect to the wristband and receive data from it.

"Martial Artist: Basic Power Generation Secrets 256 Forms, Attack Secret Technique 'Extreme Path'... Spiritual Master 'Controller' Secret Transmission 312 Forms, Attack Techniques 'Heavenly Escape', 'Arc Blade'..."

Ultraman's clone glanced at it briefly. The manual was very detailed, covering all aspects of martial artists and mentalists, and could even be used up to the cosmic level.

The only regret is that there are no secret manuals involving the fundamental laws of the universe. After all, it is just a disciple selection base, and the things that really involve the core of Meteorite Star are all in Babata.

"Thanks, I will help you make Meteorite Star great."

Since he had received such a large amount of information so easily, the Ultraman clone naturally made a small promise in return.

"By the way, do you have any other weapons or equipment?"

"I only have some Tier 1 Force equipment, you probably don't need it!"

The bald man in the crystal was somewhat helpless. They were just targeting him to fleece him. However, apart from the secret manual, there really wasn't anything good in the base. The warehouse hadn't been replenished for many years, and all that was left was the Black God Set.

"Give me a few!"

The Ultraman clone said without any politeness that he had packed up so much valuable information, so taking a few pieces of the Black God Set was no big deal.

Despite the insistence of Ultraman's clone, the bald crystal man reluctantly took out a few more pieces of the Black God Set from the warehouse, while pretending to be trying to get rid of him.
