Chapter 165 Breakthrough to the Cosmic Level
"It seems that all members who enter the core level receive the same initial points?"
Staring at the points balance displayed on the screen, Chen Yuan smiled slightly: "Ireil, scan all the item information in the treasure vault and filter out the secret method for studying the essence of the laws of time."
"Yes, ma'am."
In less than a second, Ireil completed the selection: "Master, a secret technique that meets the requirements has been found."
As soon as she finished speaking, the items on the screen refreshed instantly, leaving only a few options.
"Dawn of Light": 1000 points; "Primordial Secret Scripture": 220 million points; "Cosmic Light Secret Scripture": 88 points. Chen Yuan's gaze swept over them, and he opened the introduction of the secret techniques one by one. After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief: "As expected, this 'Dawn of Light' is the most suitable for my needs."
Other secret techniques were either created at the peak of the King-level or inherited from the Venerable Ones of the Universe.
Although both contain content related to the essence of analytical principles, the main focus is on combat techniques.
Only the book "Chen Guang" was a secret method that purely analyzed the essence of the 108 laws of time, and the price was right, so Chen Yuan did not hesitate and immediately clicked to buy it.
Next, he purchased a batch of resources needed for the subsequent cultivation of the "Nine Luminaries Body"—of course, he chose to pay for these resources in mixed units.
Chen Yuan didn't want to use his points for items that could be bought with cash.
As his access to the treasure vault increased, just as he had expected, the number of rare treasures available for purchase increased considerably.
Regarding the cultivation resources for "Wind Radiance Body", not only the materials for the seventh level, but also the materials for the entire ninth level can be purchased.
After spending 63,000 Hunyuan units, Chen Yuan had gathered all the resources needed for the first part of "Feng Yao Shen". He set the delivery of these materials to headquarters a year later, and then Chen Yuan’s attention returned to the secret technique of "Jiu Yao Shen" itself.
It seems that the first part, "Wind and Radiance Body," is nearing completion, and the next step should be to consider the selection of the second part of the secret technique.
"I guess I can only choose the 'Time-Shining Body' technique," Chen Yuan murmured. "After all, the entry requirement for cultivating the second secret technique has been raised to 10% Law Comprehension, and currently only the Law of Time meets the requirement."
"Moreover, the higher-level laws are more difficult to comprehend, and the longer it takes, the harder it is to meet the requirements."
Having made up his mind, Chen Yuan instructed, "Irele, search for resources that meet the cultivation requirements of 'Shiyao Body,' and filter them according to the standards of the second secret technique."
"Yes, Master."
The resources required for different attributes of the Nine Luminaries Body Technique vary greatly depending on the current intensity of the practitioner's body vibration.
After all, the higher the base amplitude, the more precious the treasures needed to continue improving it.
Irene quickly compiled a list, and after Chen Yuan carefully reviewed it, he couldn't help but sigh, "These expenses are getting higher and higher."
The total cost of cultivating the Wind Radiance Body, all nine levels, was just over 70,000 Hunyuan units, while cultivating the second level, the Time Radiance Body, required 50,000 Hunyuan units for the first level alone.
Moreover, the cost increases exponentially with the number of floors.
Chen Yuan roughly calculated that to gather the resources for the first six levels of "Shiyao Body", a total of 68 Hunyuan units would be needed.
This result still includes the promised funding of four mixed units from Hei Hou.
Because with Chen Yuan's current authority, some rare treasures cannot be purchased with cash and must be purchased with points.
If it weren't for Hei Hou's resource channels, he could only buy materials for the first five levels of "Shi Yao Shen" at most.
When placing the order, Chen Yuan also chose to have it delivered at headquarters a year later.
After this round of purchases, his 80 mixed-asset savings suddenly dropped to just over 5.
Finally, Chen Yuan sent an email to Hei Hou, detailing his resource needs, which happened to be a treasure worth 40,000 Hunyuan units.
Just as Chen Yuan received Hei Yanhou's reply email, a crisp knocking sound suddenly rang out on the door.
Upon opening the door, Tao Ming was standing outside, carrying a silver-white metal briefcase.
"Chen Yuan, the secret technique you ordered has arrived."
Tao Ming handed the briefcase to Chen Yuan and said with a smile, "You're really diligent. You started buying secret techniques to cultivate on your very first day in the apocalyptic secret realm."
"The early bird catches the worm," Chen Yuan replied modestly, then asked curiously, "Do you have to handle all these chores yourself? Won't it affect your cultivation?"
"Haha, this is the daily work of us members of the Apocalypse Secret Realm." Tao Ming laughed nonchalantly. "For me, this job is an important source of points."
He held up one finger, his expression mysterious, and said, "I can earn 100 points by serving 'Dim Light Court' for a year."
Chen Yuan was slightly surprised when he heard the number.
He didn't think the points were too few; on the contrary, consistently earning 100 points a year was quite considerable.
After all, managing the Twilight Court isn't a dangerous task; it's just rather tedious. As long as you manage it for a hundred years, you can earn 10,000 points, which is a considerable sum for members of the Doomsday Secret Realm.
"Hehe, don't think this is a small amount of points." Tao Ming's expression was meaningful. "Once you enter the initial universe and start cultivating, you'll know how hard it is to obtain points."
"Chen Yuan, I think you're a good person. Here's a piece of advice for you."
At this point, his expression suddenly turned serious: "You must be extremely careful in deciding how to use the points."
Don't use points if you can solve something with cash.
Chen Yuan nodded. Although he was already aware of these circumstances, he still thanked the other party for the reminder: "Understood, thank you for your guidance, senior."
"I already told you not to be so polite, just call me by my name." Tao Ming waved his hand. "That's settled then. You can continue your cultivation. I won't disturb you any longer."
"goodbye."
Back in the cultivation room, Chen Yuan opened the silver briefcase, inside which were 110 books neatly stacked.
On the silver-white cover, the two large characters "Original" stand out, with the name of the secret technique, "Chenguang," next to them.
The author's name, Wan Kong, is printed in the lower left corner of the book cover.
"Wan Kong?" Chen Yuan looked up the name and found that there wasn't much information about it.
All that is known is that this person was a genius from hundreds of thousands of epochs ago. During the era of the Realm Lord, he created this secret technique called "Chenguang" to analyze the essence of the laws of time. It was specifically used to comprehend the first three diagrams of the Primordial Chaos Stele and belonged to the basic secret technique of the "Primordial" school.
This person is very similar to Lian Luo of the Nine Universes School. Both of them were directly granted the title of Marquis after becoming Immortals. However, Fang Kong was even luckier. Not only does he still exist today, but he also successfully became a King, with the title of "Nine True Kings".
For this reason, the other party's level of secrecy is very high, and it is difficult for Chen Yuan to find out more detailed information with his current access level.
However, Chen Yuan only briefly learned about the author's background and did not intend to delve deeper.
At this moment, there are only two things that matter most to him: breaking through to the cosmic level and optimizing the "Chenguang" secret technique.
In fact, Chen Yuan's physical body was already undergoing a breakthrough, but he left a trace of his consciousness in the virtual universe. He needed to watch "Chen Guang" once to prepare for optimization.
To break through to the cosmic level, one needs to shatter the nine "constant stars" within the dantian and merge them into a vortex star system.
Furthermore, a black hole will condense at the center of the galaxy.
However, given Chen Yuan's soul control, this breakthrough was smooth sailing, and could even be described as a natural progression.
Two hours later, Chen Yuan's body completed its transformation, and he completely stepped into the first level of the universe level.
In the virtual universe, he had just finished reading those 110 manuals.
However, now is not the time for optimization, because with Chen Yuan's breakthrough, the optimization system has been upgraded again.
[Host's life essence has been detected to have undergone a leap. System upgrade in progress. Time remaining: 59:53]
"Is this upgrade going to take an hour?"
Chen Yuan recalled that when Pu was promoted to the Hengxing level, the system upgrade only took ten minutes.
"With such a significant extension in time, it seems there must be considerable changes."
If it were just adding an optimization bar, it shouldn't have taken this long, so he guessed there must be other changes.
And so, an hour passed quickly as Chen Yuan waited patiently.
The moment the system upgrade was complete, he immediately opened the panel to check the changes.
To his surprise, apart from the number of optimization bars increasing to four, the panel did not appear to have any other obvious changes.
"What happened?" Chen Yuan pulled up a detailed comparison of data before and after the system upgrade.
[System upgrade complete. Arcane/Item Optimization slot increased by 1, optimization limit increased by 1.]
