Chapter 998: Life Gene Level Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Bark Mirror Emperor was correct. Valuables couldn't help someone forever! A powerful true treasure like Star Tower required amazingly great power to drive completely, which meant treasures without strength meant nothing. As for things like Fei Mo poison, they were useless in a fight at the universe knight level. Even the golden armor Golden Horned Beast wore was destroyed completely under a strike from Bark Mirror Emperor's burning godly body. Things like general armors, golden armors, and Fei Mo venom, which had helped Luo Feng a great deal, were either eliminated or significantly weakened. ****** After the celebration meal, Primal Chaos City Leader summoned Luo Feng. At the apex of Thunder Island in the virtual universe, Primal Chaos City Leader was looking down at Thunder Island in the towering palace enveloped by boundless haze. Luo Feng showed up and gave a salutation. "Teacher." Primal Chaos City Leader turned around and looked at Luo Feng with his brooding eyes. He smiled and said, "You got one of the 108 valuables?" "Yes," said Luo Feng. "It's a top-tier flying-palace-typed treasure. It's called Silver Dragon Phantom Ship." "Silver Dragon Phantom Ship?" He thought in silence for a while but couldn't recall that valuable. He continued, "You're lucky to have a flying-palace type because it's rare and precious. Flying-palace-type top-tier treasures might be more highly desired by universe knights than the Shi Wu Wing I gave you." Luo Feng nodded, as he had thought that too. "Who left it there?" Primal Chaos City Leader asked him. "Wine Master," Luo Feng said. "I've searched for him online, and know he was one of the earliest beast gods of the Ancestral God School." "Wine Master? Riding Wind?" Primal Chaos City Leader broke into laughter. "Now I know it! It's his wine ship! That Wine Master was a very interesting universe master, and he was unbelievably powerful as an inborn beast god. Unfortunately, inborn beast gods are destined to be hunted, and that's why…" Primal Chaos City Leader sulked. Luo Feng was startled. Inborn beast gods were destined to be hunted? He couldn't help recalling the ancient picture he had previously seen in Blood River World. There had been a supreme being fighting the beast god in Blood River World, and that beast god seemed to have fallen. "Why were they hunted?" Luo Feng couldn't help asking. Primal Chaos City Leader glanced at Luo Feng and answered calmly, "Inborn beast gods are different from the learned ones. They were born out of the essence of the universe, which made them a natural valuable. Their scales, furs, and blood—every part of their bodies had amazing effects and were more precious than several thousand of or even 10,000 ordinary true treasures. Hunting an inborn beast god was a feast—a feast where lots of supreme beings joined." Luo Feng was shocked. Their bodies…?" "Every part, for resources and for opportunities," Primal Chaos City Leader said. "There are many different ways to compete. Malice, and thus killings among different races in the universe were a form of competition! Yet the Ancestral God School, who claimed not to favor any faction or occupy any territory, practices a different type of competition. It may appear not to be involved in competition on the surface, but it has reached another level of it." Luo Feng nodded. As an old saying went in Hua Xia: Only by giving up the competition can a man find no competitors in the world. Finding no competitors in the world required a great amount of power and influence. For instance, the Ancestral God School couldn't reach a higher level of competition without its three ancestral gods and its neutrality policy. And that was how it could attract countless talent fighters from all the races in the universe through inheritance tokens. At the same time, other races were willing to send their talented fighters within their races to the Ancestral God School for training, as they knew the Ancestral God School didn't compete—at least superficially. That was how the Ancestral God School had become the number-one power in the universe. "They're all competing with each other." Primal Chaos City Leader said. "Ever since the first time an inborn beast god died, all the races in the universe knew the majestic functions of a dead inborn beast god. From then on, all the other inborn beast bods were hunted. No matter how powerful they are, unless they hide forever, they will fall under intensive attacks." Primal Chaos City Leader looked at Luo Feng. "Like the blood river crystals you're using. Those came from an inborn beast god." Luo Feng's heart skipped a beat. The one who had died in Blood River World was indeed an inborn beast god. "Remember, the weak are the prey of the strong." Primal Chaos City Leader stared at Luo Feng, "That is the law of the strong. You are one of 'another race' to all the other races in the universe, and nobody will pity you. The only thing eternal is competition! The fight! All you must do is gain resources continuously to make yourself stronger. If you're stronger, your race is stronger. The strength of a race is determined by the most senior group, and each member of that group is a pillar of the race. You're quite likely to become a pillar of our human race." Luo Feng nodded. "Before you become undying, merge with that blood river crystal completely," Primal Chaos City Leader said. "It can help you improve your life gene level. You're a black warrior. You're likely to improve your life gene level to 100 times stronger than a universe ordinary life." "100 times?" Luo Feng asked. The life gene level of his original earthling body was already 48 times stronger since Luo Feng started practicing the Nine Volume Manual. If he used the power of Blood River, it would hit 480 times! It was already a major universe special life form. "100 times is the limit." Primal Chaos City Leader said. "Body, strength, and amplification—100 times is their limit. And it's the same for soul amplification and life gene level… This is part of the universe's rule, just as lightspeed is the fastest one can travel in the original universe." Luo Feng held his breath. Both body strength amplification and soul spirit amplification were extremely rare! Luo Feng only had 32 times soul amplification after receiving "Demon Note General inheritance," which was soul spirit amplification technique. As for body strength amplification, Luo Feng hadn't had such luck. "The limit is 100 times?" Luo Feng murmured. "That's right. 100 times." However, his original earthling body was already 480 times stronger, and his Golden Horned Beast body was over 1,000 times stronger. "Are there any other ways to improve the life gene level more than 100 times?" Luo Feng asked. "Yes," said Primal Chaos City Leader. "What is it?" asked Luo Feng. "Soul transfer," Primal Chaos City Leader answered. "You do soul transfer on a special organism, and once that's completed, you'll have the body of a special life, just with a different soul. Though some soul-related talent techniques will disappear, those body-related talent techniques and life gene levels can both be inherited. But it is difficult. First of all, undying fighters' life imprints are merged with each of their cell fragments, and if you destroy their life imprints, you effectively destroy their entire godly body. That is why you can only do soul transfer on creatures beneath the undying level. Besides… If I'm a sector lord trying to do soul transfer on a universe-level special life form, it'll be easier to defeat him than to transfer his soul. Even if you try to transfer his soul, my sector lord soul will be a huge burden to the body! And it will be crushed if the body can't withhold it." Luo Feng nodded. He knew that souls and bodies had to match each other. For humans, in general, their bodies needed to be at level seven sector lord to hold level nine sector lord human souls. Otherwise, the bodies would be crushed. "You need to find a special life form whose body can withhold your soul," Primal Chaos City Leader explained, "but if his body is capable of doing that, it means that special life form is your match. And together with his talent techniques, chances are that you'll be killed by him. Besides, sector lord-level special life forms hardly leave the secret region of the universe, and even if you can meet and defeat them, they'd rather self-destruct than have soul transfer done to them. In short… Doing soul transfer on special life forms is highly beneficial, but it's difficult to succeed. Only a few have succeeded so far." "Are there any other ways?" Luo Feng asked. "Those like you who have clone techniques can breed a special organism body," Primal Chaos City Leader said. "Of course, the downside is that a special organism that can be bred is generally one of the weak ones." Luo Feng nodded. Yes. He couldn't breed a World Tree. He had Golden Horned Beast's internal world. It swallowed a huge amount of metal to form a gigantic internal world, but it could only breed a body with a life level hundreds of times higher. "In short, there are lots of ways to accomplish it, and it often needs special organisms," said Primal Chaos City Leader. "Any other ways?" Luo Feng asked again. "No, there are not!" Primal Chaos City Leader shook his head. However, he hesitated and added, "Of course, there are hundreds of millions of races in the universe, and there are some supreme beings. Some secrets remained undiscovered. Perhaps there are some methods even I don't know of. However, I can be sure of one thing. It's a fair universe. Even if there are some secret, extraordinary methods, they'll surely cost a lot." Luo Feng nodded. That was right. The Nine Volume Manual was created by the universe supreme master 'Zuo Shan Ke,' who devoted all his time and energy and created the invaluable Sky-Soul Crystal to bear it, and only after that could it be inherited. Even so, only one creature could obtain the information of the Nine Volume Manual. It could be seen how demanding the universe rule was. Primal Chaos City Leader smiled. "Don't overthink it. 100 times was the limit. It's already rare to be 100 times stronger. Lots of universe knights only improve their life gene level ten times. As for you, you're a black warrior, and you're already at ten times. You can improve it a great deal with 'beast god blood' in the future." Luo Feng nodded. He also planned to merge with blood river crystals before becoming undying. Thus, his godly body could reach a supreme level after becoming undying. "Go," said Primal Chaos City Leader. "If you need beast god blood, you can apply for the resource through the virtual universe company." "Yes." Luo Feng gave a salutation and left. ****** 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮 In the palace of Primal Secret Region.
