Lu Ming spent most of his time immersed in cultivation and comprehending the laws of fire and space fusion, occasionally taking action to eliminate some ignorant alien races, while closely monitoring the source core within his body that was nurturing the [Nine Dragon Avatar].
On this day, Lu Ming, who was in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of uncontrollable joy flashing in them.
Within the inner world, the chaotic source core that had been emitting a dark golden light and constantly absorbing the power of the world and the divine power was now vibrating violently. The extremely dense life force within it seemed to have reached a certain critical point and suddenly erupted!
Om-!
A powerful, domineering aura, carrying a sharp aura that seemed to tear the heavens apart, emanated from the source core and instantly swept across the entire inner world.
Click!
On the surface of the source core, the chaotic outer shell shattered like an eggshell, transforming into pure energy that was absorbed. In its place stood a colossal and awe-inspiring body!
That was a colossal creature, over a thousand kilometers long!
Its entire body is covered with dark gold diamond-shaped scales, each scale seemingly forged through countless trials, its edges gleaming with a chilling light.
Its body is serpentine and agile, full of explosive power, with four incredibly sharp claws on its abdomen, enough to easily tear apart stars.
The ferocious head looked down at the inner world, radiating boundless dragon might!
The Nine Dragon Splits have been successfully conceived!
Chapter 55 Rumors
This enormous body floated silently in the inner world, and the life level and energy fluctuations it emitted had reached the peak of the ninth level of the World Lord!
"Success!"
Lu Ming's consciousness merged into this brand-new body, and an incomparably powerful and perfectly compatible feeling surged into his heart.
This body seemed born for battle and destruction, with terrifying power contained within its muscle fibers and boundless divine power flowing beneath its scales. It also possessed a natural affinity for the laws of metal and space.
Its genetic level is thousands of times higher, making it extremely powerful in combat. Since it has no soul, it is not at risk of being attacked or controlled by a soul.
At the same time, two streams of inherited information originating from the very source of life's genes surged into Lu Ming's consciousness like a tidal wave.
These are the two innate secret techniques of the Nine Dragons' clone!
[Innate Secret Technique 1: Domain]
Effect: Instantly releases an invisible domain, the size of which is related to the user's strength and understanding of the laws of space. Within this domain, the user's control over spacetime is greatly enhanced, and speed, agility, spatial containment, and the ability to traverse are all strengthened. Simultaneously, the domain exerts a powerful suppressive effect on enemies, weakening their speed and perception; while on the user, it provides an amplifying effect, increasing attack, defense, and divine power recovery speed. This is a powerful domain-type talent that combines control, suppression, and amplification!
【Secret Technique of Talent Two: Nine Strike】
Effect: Unleashes power, instantly increasing one's overall combat strength, including base strength, speed, defense, and divine power, by a hundredfold for a short period! Duration depends on one's energy reserves. This technique consumes an extremely large amount of energy; use it judiciously.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Even Lu Ming, after fully understanding these two great talent techniques, couldn't help but exclaim "Good!" three times, overjoyed.
The existence of the [Domain] allows the Nine Dragons clones to attack or defend, controlling the rhythm of the battlefield.
And [Nine Strike] is even more heaven-defying! A hundredfold increase in combat power!
This is almost equivalent to having explosive power that surpasses the current level in a short period of time!
Although it consumes a huge amount of energy and cannot be used continuously, once the Nether Sea Avatar is obtained later, the divine power will be limitless, which means it can be used as a regular trump card!
Combined with his already formidable genetic level and understanding of the laws, once he unleashes [Nine Strike], a World Lord-level being could probably unleash terrifying combat power comparable to or even surpassing that of a King!
"This Nine Dragon Avatar is even more perfect than I imagined!"
Lu Ming's consciousness controlled the enormous dragon body, which stretched for thousands of kilometers, to stretch out within his inner world. The dragon's head emitted a silent roar, stirring up the wind and clouds.
With this powerful clone, he felt much more confident in carrying out his "grand plan"!
"Next, it's time to get familiar with this body, refine the two innate secret techniques, and then..."
Then we can start planning.
Time passes slowly.
Instead of appearing in person, he used some clandestine channels and paid a small price to quietly spread several pieces of information, some true and some false, like pebbles thrown into a lake.
Soon, these messages spread like a virus throughout the Ninth Domain's outer battlefield, in various ways, causing undercurrents among humans, demons, machines, insectoids, and even many other powerful alien races.
At first, there were only a few scattered rumors:
"Have you heard? That 'Burning Sky King' Yan Feng seems to have struck it rich!"
"Oh? Which unfortunate guy did he kill this time?"
"It wasn't murder! Apparently, while exploring some unremarkable ancient ruins, they triggered a hidden space and discovered a treasure left behind by an ancient powerhouse!"
As time went on, the rumors became more and more specific, and the details became more and more abundant.
“It’s absolutely true! A friend of mine, a neighbor of a comrade-in-arms in the demon race camp… personally witnessed King Burning Sky emerge from that ruin. His aura was somewhat unstable; he must have received a great benefit!”
"It's more than just benefits! They say there are several priceless treasures inside!!"
“That’s right, I’ve heard about it too. Apparently, there’s also a complete set of top-tier secret techniques related to fire and space, which are invaluable!”
"Tsk tsk, a realm lord possessing so many treasures is like a child carrying gold in the market!"
These rumors spread like wildfire across the battlefields beyond our borders.
Although many powerful individuals are skeptical, the words "treasure" and "top-tier secret technique" are inherently very tempting.
Moreover, the protagonist of the rumors is the legendary "Burning Sky King," a monster who, as a realm lord, possesses combat power approaching that of a king!
It doesn't seem entirely impossible that he would have such an extraordinary stroke of luck.
The thoughts of countless powerful alien races began to stir.
Facing the Burning Sky King alone, they might weigh their own strength, but if he truly possesses several powerful treasures... that would be enough to drive many at the limit of the King level, and even some invincible King level, crazy!
Greed is the eternal driving force in the universe.
Suddenly, undercurrents were stirring.
Many powerful kings who were originally in other regions began to inquire about the latest whereabouts of King Yan Feng, the Burning Sky King, intentionally or unintentionally.
Within opposing factions such as the demon race and the mechanical race, some hastily formed hunting teams have even emerged, with their targets being Lu Ming, who is said to be extremely wealthy.
And all of this was exactly the effect Lu Ming wanted.
"The water has been stirred up..."
Inside the Qingyuan spaceship, Lu Ming looked at the information fed back from the military camp system, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
Spreading this information is enough to drive these alien races mad!
For immortals, such treasures are something that can only be encountered by chance and cannot be sought after!
Even if they are invincible kings, they will still be extremely envious of the great treasures.
Even those who are generally considered invincible and have been granted the title of king may not be able to produce many valuable treasures.
Even newly ascended Universe Venerables would be incredibly envious of such treasures!
Lu Ming had no doubt that as long as he revealed his specific coordinates, it would immediately attract a large number of people to come and cause him trouble.
Lu Ming sneered.
However, it's uncertain who will live and who will die at that time.
The World Ring flashed, and an object instantly appeared in Lu Ming's hand—a bead.
With a thought, the bead instantly merged into Lu Ming's body, becoming one with his battle armor.
"True King's Armor Bead!"
Lu Ming bought back the King Armor set in Hongmeng City for 5 billion Hunyuan units.
Then he made the sacrifice directly; it was originally just a casual step, done on a whim.
After all, only the Flame God Clan and humans who have cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture can use the armor beads that are derived from these tribulation armors.
The True King Armor Bead he obtained after the sacrifice eliminated this flaw and could provide him with 500,000 times the power of a peak Realm Lord.
Physical attacks are reduced to one-thousandth, and soul attacks are reduced to one-tenth.
It's already comparable to many powerful armors.
With this precious treasure, we have more than enough to deal with it!
Chapter 56 Hey, you didn't call for backup, did you?
Therefore, the information Lu Ming spread was indeed accurate.
After all, it wouldn't be wrong to say that he has a great treasure.
With his current combat strength, he is fully confident that he can make a name for himself in the entire extraterritorial battlefield in one battle!
But there's no rush. Let's wait and let the news continue to spread.
He's almost finished mastering the final level of his Burning Universe Sky-Splitting Slash.
Virtual universe, a private cultivation space.
This is a vast and boundless starry sky, where countless stars move along mysterious trajectories. Lu Ming's figure stands alone on a desolate planet, holding a long sword identical to the Yan Kong Blade.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, his aura resonating faintly with the entire starry sky.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and it seemed as if a dark red universe was being created and destroyed within them.
"cut!"
With a low shout, he suddenly slashed out with his long sword!
A dark red blade of light, condensed to its fullest extent, streaked across the night sky like a shooting star, instantly passing through a band of stars in front of it.
laugh--!
Where the blade flashed, the meteorite belt made of special metal vanished silently, like ice and snow thrown into a raging fire, leaving only absolute nothingness.
The blade's gleam contained not only the ultimate laws of fire, but also a terrifying aura capable of tearing apart and burning away all space!
Lu Ming did not stop. His figure flickered like a ghost in the starry sky, his long sword swinging out again and again.
The second cut, the third cut, the fourth cut...
The streaks of dark red sword light crisscrossed and did not immediately dissipate. Instead, they seemed to have a life of their own, intertwining and converging in the starry sky!
