Chapter 8 Improvement
When Muke saw Lu Xing return, he waved his hand and reminded him again, "You only have fifteen years."
Lu Xing nodded slightly, then flew away into the distance. He couldn't possibly absorb the Ice Flame Liquid next to Mu Ke; the two of them didn't trust each other to that extent yet.
"That's fine!"
He used the power of the world to carve a temporary cave in the rock wall. After he went inside, he blasted the entrance back down and buried it. However, by this time he had already released his spaceship and turned the detector power to the maximum.
This way, as long as the attack doesn't exceed the level of a World Lord, he'll have some time to react.
"About a thousand cubic meters, worth 700 billion cosmic coins, that's really generous!" Lu Xing's consciousness sank into his inner world, and with just a thought, he could begin refining the ice flame liquid inside.
In an instant, drops of icy flame liquid transformed into a surge of energy that flowed into Lu Xing's inner world, and the aura emanating from him gradually intensified.
Fifteen years later...
A surge of energy instantly swept across the entire hill.
"I didn't expect the conversion rate to reach 80%, and the refining speed has also greatly improved." Lu Xing stood up, and the aura he exuded had reached the peak of the second level of the Realm Lord.
Simply refining and absorbing the Ice Flame Liquid won't perfectly convert it into Origin Force for a breakthrough. A conversion rate of 50% is considered good. Combining it with other treasures to make a nutrient solution might achieve a conversion rate of 60% or 70%.
"The higher the physical strength, the more energy it can withstand, but there are only 30 cubic meters of Ice Flame Liquid left, which is not enough to support my breakthrough to the third tier." Lu Xing couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but he quickly came to terms with it. With 10 genes, he needed ten times the resources of others, and being able to break through to the peak of the second tier was already an unexpected surprise.
Just as Lu Xing was about to return, a fluctuation came from a corner of his inner world.
"what?"
His consciousness immediately sank into it, and he saw an invisible fluctuation emanating from the location of the Blazing Star Vine.
"This is... the Realm of Fire!!"
As the world lord who had transformed the Ninefold Fire Domain into a world, Lu Xing was all too familiar with this fluctuation, but it still surprised him greatly.
Clearly, the Blazing Star Vine had completely absorbed the nutrient solution he had prepared to help it break through to the third level of the cosmic realm, and the effect was naturally extremely significant.
At this moment, the Blazing Star Vine had officially broken through to the first level of the cosmic level. The two vines split into four more, each over 200 kilometers long. Of course, the most important gain was the Fire Domain.
The reason why cultivating plant life is so expensive is that its intelligence is not high. If you want to comprehend the laws through external forces, you naturally need to accumulate a lot of treasures. Breaking through from the ninth level of Domain Lord to the peak of World Lord requires at least 10,000 Chaos Units. A high-level E9 nutrient capsule only has less than 1 Chaos Unit. The difference is not small.
"Master, are these corpses around here for me to devour?" A childish voice entered Lu Xing's mind. It was no longer unclear; the Blazing Star Vine could now communicate normally.
"That's right, you can devour as much as you want," Lu Xing replied. For convenience, the corpses of the Ice Flame Pythons had been piled up around the Blazing Star Vine. "By the way, tell me about your situation. How did you comprehend a domain?"
With Lu Xing's permission, the four vines quickly enveloped the Ice Flame Python's corpse completely. "Master, after I was born, I seemed to have mutated after consuming that red crystal and gained the innate secret technique - Devouring. I can devour any kind of energy to accumulate primal force. As for the domain, I comprehended it on my own after my body's patterns resonated with it."
Although it wasn't explained very clearly, Lu Xing could understand that the improvement process of the Blazing Star Vine was just those patterns on the surface. The more patterns there were, the easier it would be to comprehend the domain. As for the innate secret technique... he had already intercepted the red crystal, which created the Blazing Star Vine's current somewhat awkward situation.
After a while, the Blazing Star Vine is estimated to be able to completely transform into a special plant life with 10 times the genetic level, but for now, it has benefited Lu Xing.
"If you absorb all this energy, what level can you reach?" Lu Xing moved his thoughts, and the remaining 30 cubic meters of ice flame liquid in the distance were all moved over.
"We should be able to break through to the Domain Lord level," Chixing replied.
"Then let you devour it. I need you to improve as soon as possible." Lu Xing manipulated the Ice Flame Liquid to fall onto the vines of Blazing Star, and the vines that came into contact with it immediately began to absorb it.
With his innate secret technique of devouring, the energy of the Ice Flame Liquid was almost perfectly utilized.
"Having a secret technique is really great!" Lu Xing exclaimed. His consciousness left his inner world, and as long as he was willing to spend money, it was easy to cultivate plant life. He had already planned to let Chixing break through to immortality first.
As the spaceship was stored inside his body, the solid mountain collapsed instantly.
But how could this possibly threaten Lu Xing? He left the cave the moment it collapsed.
"Beep beep beep..."
Just after he left, the detector on his arm sounded an alarm.
"How come we didn't detect such a high-intensity energy reaction before?" Lu Xing looked at a red mark on the light screen, which was only two kilometers away from him.
The distance was incredibly close; it was probably just above the cave he had just been in.
Lu Xing immediately flew over again. Upon closer inspection, he saw pieces of metal ore exposed in the ruins. His intelligent computer scanned the ore, and information about the metals appeared before him.
"No wonder, it's Dark Cloud Gold."
Dark Cloud Metal is a special metal with extremely strong signal shielding capabilities. Adding just a small amount to the alloy can give it excellent anti-detection capabilities.
He collected all the scattered metal into his inner world, revealing a small opening.
Lu Xing went inside. The sealed environment created by Dark Cloud Gold had been broken. The detector detected a high-intensity energy reaction inside, but there was no sign of life. Moreover, if this energy were dangerous, he would have been dead long ago.
Although his detector wasn't very advanced, it could still detect the life energy reactions of a peak Realm Lord. This was the limit of his detector, but not the limit of its energy.
The cave entrance wasn't very deep, but the walls on all sides were made of pure dark cloud gold.
"That's quite a generous investment. Now I'm the one who benefits." Lu Xing gently touched the Dark Cloud Gold wall. Dark Cloud Gold is not cheap, costing 1 Mixed Yuan Unit per ton. Because of its low density, constructing a space like this wouldn't require much, but it would still weigh at least 1000 tons. Of course, figuring out what's inside is more important now.
Soon, Lu Xing reached the deepest part.
An eight-meter-tall humanoid figure, with four thick arms still gripping four spears, looked as if it were alive, even though it hadn't moved an inch.
Their eyes met, and Lu Xing felt an extremely strong sense of pressure—the impact of the will of the dead.
"This is... an immortal corpse!!!"
