Chapter 402 The Primordial Ancestor's Surprise, Cosmic Ship Topographic Map
Despite the physical injury, a smile appeared on Chen Yuan's face.
"The limit of immunity in the ethereal realm is the peak of true godhood."
"But when facing attacks from the Void God, I was also immune to 99% of the damage, and only one percent of the attacks were withstood by me."
"And this power, after being weakened by layers of armor and divine body defense, can no longer harm me."
.
"In other words, with my body in a phantom state activated, attacks from early-stage Void Gods can no longer harm me."
This is only the result of the illusory power at the beginner level.
Once Chen Yuan elevates the virtual universe to the proficient and mastered stages, the illusory power he can wield will become increasingly powerful, and the upper limit of attacks that his illusory body can resist will also increase.
"The amount of illusory power I currently possess is probably less than one percent of the entire branch."
Chen Yuan was thrilled: "If I can cultivate the virtual universe to perfection, that would be one-tenth of the power of the entire illusory branch."
"Let alone an eternal true god, even an ordinary chaos ruler probably doesn't have such an understanding."
Normally, a cultivator can only gain the ability to comprehend the Great Dao after comprehending and fusing the Ten Great Laws into the Chaos Law. After comprehending a complete branch of the Great Dao, one can advance to the first level of the God King realm.
Therefore, being able to comprehend one-tenth of the power of a branch of the Great Dao is not considered weak among the Chaos Rulers. Many Chaos Realm cultivators who have cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years have not achieved such enlightenment.
However, this does not mean that one cannot comprehend the Great Dao before becoming a Chaos Ruler; it simply means that the difficulty will be extremely high.
The difference between the two is roughly equivalent to that between a Realm Lord and a Constant Star. Both can comprehend the laws, but the former's clarity is thousands or tens of thousands of times greater than the latter's.
However, some outstanding Eternal Stars can surpass some World Lord level experts in their understanding of the laws, such as Bolan during the Genius Battle.
Chen Yuan is now like this genius star.
With the help of the system and the Primordial Eye, I comprehended the power of the illusory branch from the "Soul Binding" ability in advance and sealed it in the "Eternal True Mystic Magic Virtual Universe".
Due to the perfect compatibility of the secret technique, as long as Chen Yuan cultivates, the virtual universe can continue to grow, gradually increasing his understanding of the power of illusion.
When the secret method is perfected, it will reach one-tenth of the complete illusory branch.
"Even the progenitors of the Eternal God era probably didn't comprehend to this extent the power of one-tenth of the illusory branch."
This can be seen from the strength of the illusory clone.
Chen Yuan remembered that the illusory clone that the Primordial Ancestor possessed during the time of the Eternal True God had about 30% of the strength of his main body. Compared with the perfected level of the Virtual Universe Secret Technique, its illusory power was only one-third.
In other words, the illusory branches that the progenitor possessed at that time were only about 3% of the complete branches.
Of course, the fact that the Primordial Ancestor could comprehend a portion of the illusory power with only the realm of Eternal True God shows his exceptional talent. He truly deserves to be called a genius who could break through to God King after only eight hundred epochs of cultivation.
"By the way, now that the Virtual Universe Secret Technique is upgraded, I'll also send the data on the increased illusory power to the Primordial Ancestor."
If the Void True God-level Virtual Universe Secret Technique only contained a trace of illusory branch power, then the current Virtual Universe contains a considerable amount of illusory power.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan found the origin of the virtual universe of the original ancestor and gently touched it, which was the way the two of them had agreed to wake up.
Soon, the primordial ancestor appeared in the origin space, asking in confusion, "Chen Yuan, what happened?"
Since Chen Yuan took control of the virtual universe, the Primordial Ancestor no longer cared about external affairs and devoted himself to comprehending the power of illusion.
The two also agreed that unless something major happened, they wouldn't need to wake him up, which is why the original ancestor had this question.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious, but it does have something to do with you, Grandmaster."
Chen Yuan smiled and, facing the primordial ancestor's questioning gaze, said, "My virtual universe has undergone another upgrade and has obtained more information about the power of illusion."
"I called you out, Grandmaster, because I wanted to pass on this information to you."
"Virtual universe upgrade?" The progenitor blinked, looking somewhat bewildered.
But he quickly understood Chen Yuan's meaning and couldn't help but ask, "Wait, what does 'virtual universe upgrade' mean?"
"How long have I been in seclusion? How many epochs have passed in the primordial universe?"
Faced with the progenitor's questioning, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandmaster, you haven't been in seclusion for very long, only a few hundred years."
"Several hundred years??" The Primordial Ancestor was dumbfounded again. "You've advanced the Virtual Universe Secret Technique to a higher level in just a few hundred years?"
"More or less." Chen Yuan nodded.
Well, advancing from the Void True God to the peak of the Eternal True God can be considered an improvement of one level.
The original ancestor, however, believed that Chen Yuan had advanced from the mid-stage of the Void True God realm to the late-stage realm, which meant that he had upgraded from the twelfth-level secret technique to the thirteenth level.
Even so, it still deeply shocked him, for he was the creator of the secrets of the virtual universe!
Back then, he spent trillions of epochs to finally create the tenth-order virtual universe secret technique. After that, it was suppressed by the primordial universe, and it took several trillions of epochs to slowly advance this secret technique to the twelfth order.
However, once this secret technique came into Chen Yuan's hands, he upgraded it to the thirteenth level in just a few hundred years.
Trillions of epochs?
Hundreds of years?
Even though the original ancestor understood that his grand-disciple's talent was obviously extraordinary, this was still too exaggerated!
"Your talent truly defies my expectations time and time again."
Yuanzu shook his head helplessly. Even though he had observed Chen Yuan for thousands of years, he should have been fully aware of his talent, but the other party's performance still exceeded his expectations.
Chen Yuan simply smiled at this, without offering any further explanation, mainly because much of the information was restricted by the supreme rules, and he simply couldn't bring himself to say it.
Information such as details about the Eternal God, the Great Dao of the Soul, and illusory branches is not something that life forms in the primordial universe should know.
Upon seeing Chen Yuan's expression, the Primordial Ancestor immediately realized that this information must have been restricted by the Supreme Rules.
As a primordial cosmic being who had violated the supreme rules and paid the price, he fully understood Chen Yuan's predicament.
Therefore, the original ancestor did not delve into Chen Yuan's talent, but said, "In that case, I will activate the terminal and receive the data from your side."
"Uh, let's not go through that trouble."
Chen Yuan shook his head, his tone helpless: "Relying on terminal connection is too inefficient. With the computing power of your terminal, it would probably take thousands of years to receive all this data."
Just kidding, this represents a full one-tenth of the data from the Unreal Branch.
Even if an intelligent life form possesses superior computing power, it would still take a very long time for a terminal at the level of a universe master to receive the data.
That's right. Although Chen Yuan's own secret technique was not yet fully mastered, the relevant information about the power of illusion was completely stored in the secret technique.
In other words, the information he transmitted was also complete, allowing people to comprehend one-tenth of the power of the Great Dao from the illusory branch.
"Therefore, let's directly merge with the origin of the virtual universe. Transmitting data through the origin is thousands of times more efficient than using a terminal. It is estimated that we can complete the transmission of this data in a year."
Chen Yuan suggested.
"Several thousand years?" Upon hearing this timeframe, the progenitor was stunned again.
His terminal, which is capable of supporting the operation of the entire virtual universe, actually takes thousands of years to receive this data.
Is this still a thirteenth-tier secret technique? The Primordial Ancestor finally asked this question.
"Uh." Chen Yuan thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth: "It's higher than the thirteenth level, roughly equivalent to a tenth-seventh level secret technique."
All the information about this rank was calculated by Chen Yuan.
Just as creating a tenth-order secret technique can lead to breaking through to the Void True God level, a true Void-level secret technique is between the eleventh and thirteenth orders.
Similarly, if a cultivator who creates a fourteenth-order secret technique can break through to the Eternal True God level, then an Eternal-level secret technique should be between the fifteenth and seventeenth orders.
The original work did not mention the specific level of the Eternal-level secret technique. Before breaking through to the Eternal True God, Luo Feng had only created a top-tier thirteenth-level secret technique.
Then comes observing the birth and death of the primordial universe, comprehending the source of birth and death, and breaking through to become an eternal true god, after which one enters the cycle of reincarnation.
As for the Origin Continent, that's where the calculation method is different.
"How many? Seventeenth level!" The Primordial Ancestor couldn't help but repeat, his face full of disbelief: "This is just one level you're talking about?"
"A whole realm, how can it not be a level?" Chen Yuan chuckled.
"————"
This time, the Primordial Ancestor remained silent for a long while before finally suppressing his emotions and shaking his head, saying, "Alright, then let's transmit it through the source."
He was speechless about his grand-disciple's talent.
After all, how can he evaluate something that is beyond his comprehension? He can only look up to it.
Soon, just like the last time they handed over the virtual universe, they merged the origins of the two virtual universes together again. Then, Chen Yuan transmitted the data of the upgraded illusory power through the secret technique.
The speed at which information is exchanged through the origin of the universe is indeed very fast, far surpassing even Irelia's computing power, which is a hundred times greater.
Just one year later, Chen Yuan transmitted this information to the primordial universe origin.
"That's enough, Grandmaster."
After transmitting the last bit of information, Chen Yuan awakened the Primordial Ancestor through the Primordial Vibration.
Soon, the voice of the Primordial Ancestor came from the origin of the virtual universe: "Understood, now separate the origins."
As the two exerted force simultaneously, the two fundamental sources were eventually separated.
The primordial ancestor reappeared in the Origin Space, a hint of lingering satisfaction on his face: "This time, the illusory power is hundreds of times greater than the last time it was transmitted."
During the year of fusion with the origin, the primordial ancestor did not let this opportunity pass by. He chose to face the origin directly and comprehend it for a year. At the same time, he was also shocked by the massive amount of data.
Is this the power of a seventeenth-tier secret technique? The Primordial Ancestor even felt that if he could fully comprehend these illusory powers, even the lords of the two holy lands would be far inferior to him.
He even felt a sliver of confidence that he could break free from the suppression of the primordial universe.
Because the primordial universe had no means to deal with illusory forces, it could only suppress them by force due to its sheer size.
Most importantly, after the primordial universe suppressed him, the original will never bothered him again, seemingly certain that he could never escape.
"Moreover, even with the wisdom of the original will, it is impossible to watch over me at all times, which is why I have been able to use the virtual universe to keep my will free all these years."
The Primordial One thought to himself, "Based on this information, I know that the power of illusion possesses a 'transformation' ability, which can turn the physical body into an illusion."
"If I can comprehend these illusory powers and then illusoryize myself, perhaps there is a sliver of hope that I can break free from the oppression of the primordial universe."
Fearing that he might violate the supreme rules and be perceived by the primordial will, he did not voice this thought, but made the decision silently in his heart.
Of course, the information about this illusory power is vast and complex, and not so easy to understand.
But compared to the despair of being eternally suppressed before, this glimmer of hope was a pleasant surprise for the Primordial Ancestor.
Moreover, there are still more than six trillion epochs before the destruction of the original universe. With such a long period of time, he may well be able to decipher this information.
"Thank you, Chen Yuan."
Yuan Zu's face beamed with joy: "This information is very useful to me."
"As long as I can help my grandmaster, that's fine." Chen Yuan nodded.
He didn't think that relying on one-tenth of the illusory branch would be enough to free the Primordial Ancestor, because he had never been suppressed by the Primordial Universe, so he couldn't imagine the specific level of suppression.
Chen Yuan's views on the primordial universe all come from the original work.
With a size of ten trillion light-years and a complete Great Dao of the Origin of Life, it was definitely a God-King Ultimate Realm configuration. Naturally, he regarded the Primordial Universe as an Ultimate Realm being.
That's why he felt that if the Primordial Ancestor wanted to escape, he would need to fully comprehend the complete illusory branch to have even a sliver of hope.
However, Chen Yuan did not mention this information to Yuan Zu, lest he plunge the other party into despair.
In any case, Chen Yuan was confident in how to free the Primordial Ancestor. After all, the World Beast was still lurking in the Dark Land, and he wasn't afraid that the Primordial Will would not compromise.
"Now that the data has been received, I won't stay any longer."
The Primordial One said, "These materials are very important to me. I will now delve into them. If nothing major happens, there is no need to wake me up."
"Okay." Chen Yuan nodded.
Anyway, it's still a long way from his breakthrough to true godhood, and he probably won't be able to continue optimizing the virtual universe for a while, so let the Primordial Ancestor rest well.
The progenitor nodded in acknowledgment, and then vanished without a trace.
After the original ancestor left, Chen Yuan turned his attention to the Cosmic Sea.
"It's been a year since the virtual universe upgrade. I wonder how the analysis is going on Irene's side."
As his consciousness merged into the virtual universe, he discovered that the fog that had shrouded the three previously pitch-black forbidden zones on the spaceship had largely disappeared.
Chen Yuan observed the markings left by Ireil, which clearly recorded the situation inside the spaceship, and highlighted some treasures that had never been seen before.
"Unfortunately, there is no news about the Tomb Ship."
Chen Yuan did not interrupt Irene's analysis, but silently looked at the known terrain map inside the spaceship and decided on his next goal.
Suddenly, his gaze sharpened as he stared at a spot inside the spaceship where the markings were brighter and covered a larger area.
[Black-veined Stone Pillar Area: There are sixteen black-veined stone pillars in total, each about a thousand light-years tall. Approaching a stone pillar will cause a shock to one's will, with the impact intensifying the closer one is and the faster the flow of time. The upper limit of the shock to one's will is the level of an Eternal True God.]
[Irele's Note: The material of the stone pillar cannot be analyzed at the moment. This place is suitable for the owner to temper his will and cultivate secret techniques, hence the mark.]
