Swallowed Star: Copy God

Before long, Ye Yun returned to the manor he had been away from for twenty years. The manor's chief steward, Astu, and King Huan Kong, had been waiting at the manor's entrance for a long time. Seeing Ye Yun's return, even the experienced and unflappable King Huan Kong couldn't help but reveal a joyful expression.

King Huan Kong patted Ye Yun on the shoulder and said with a smile,

"Good lad! If you didn't occasionally show up in the virtual universe, I would have been worried about your safety! Did you get the mission done?"

Ye Yun felt the deep concern in King Huan Kong's words and replied with a smile,

"Senior Brother, how could I, your junior brother, fail a mission I take on? Hey, Senior Brother, come with me, I've brought you a gift!"

The two arrived at a private lounge. King Huan Kong looked at Ye Yun with interest, wondering what kind of gift Ye Yun was talking about.

Ye Yun maintained a faint smile and gently waved his right hand. A pile of black, shimmering rhomboid crystals appeared on the ground. King Huan Kong was somewhat puzzled. Ye Yun began to explain,

"Senior Brother, these are my spoils from the Abyss of Purgatory, called 'Abyss Stones.' They contain extremely vast and abundant immortal divine power, and they are absorbed very quickly. They are very suitable for immortal-level powerhouses to use for recovery after burning divine power. Here are a hundred of them, which should be enough for you to use for a long time."

"Abyss Stones?"

King Huan Kong frowned slightly. As an immortal powerhouse of the Virtual Universe Company for many years, he had never heard of the name 'Abyss Stones.'

It's no wonder King Huan Kong didn't recognize 'Abyss Stones.' The Purgatory Abyss training mission is a forbidden mission in the entire Virtual Universe Company. Few people dare to accept it, and ninety-nine percent of those who do end up dying.

And the remaining lucky ones who successfully leave the Purgatory Abyss mostly stay on the tenth level, enduring for ten years through various means before finally escaping.

The immortal-level Purgatory Beasts that permeate the tenth level of the Purgatory Abyss are extremely difficult to deal with. Therefore, those geniuses who successfully leave the Purgatory Abyss don't have many 'Abyss Stones' in their hands. Coupled with the Virtual Universe Company's information blockade, it's even harder for them to circulate.

King Huan Kong didn't doubt Ye Yun's words. However, he still stepped forward, picked up a black 'Abyss Stone,' and carefully felt the energy fluctuations within. After a while, King Huan Kong revealed a shocked expression.

This small rhomboid crystal actually contained the equivalent of the entire divine power essence of an ordinary immortal powerhouse, and it was extremely pure without impurities. Just as Ye Yun said, it was not only very suitable for all immortal powerhouses to absorb, but also extremely efficient, which was of great benefit to the recovery of lost divine bodies.

In just an instant, King Huan Kong understood the value of these hundred black crystals. The value of a hundred 'Abyss Stones' combined was even comparable to a treasure!

King Huan Kong slowly put down the black crystal in his hand, exhaled a long breath, and revealed a self-deprecating smile,

"Ye Yun, I didn't expect that I would still have greedy thoughts."

King Huan Kong had to admit that when Ye Yun took out these hundred powerful 'Abyss Stones,' he deeply desired to accept them. After all, no matter how strong he was, he was still just an immortal powerhouse. Before breaking through to become a Universe Venerable, these 'Abyss Stones' would be of great use to him, ensuring his supply and saving his life in an emergency.

King Huan Kong looked at Ye Yun's clear eyes, cut off his momentary greed, and said with some determination,

"Ye Yun, I appreciate your kindness! However, I am your Senior Brother, and Teacher and Venerable Yu Meng have instructed me to take good care of you! Now that I haven't helped you with anything, I can't possibly accept such a generous gift from you!"

Ye Yun understood King Huan Kong's thoughts. He said with a smile,

"Senior Brother, back in Chaos City, didn't you take the initiative to become my nominal 'guidance teacher' without saying a word? Wasn't it just to protect me in the future?

You are all thinking of me, and I understand that in my heart. Now, this is just a small token of my appreciation!

Besides, we've been together for so long, why are you still being so polite with me? When Senior Brother fights with other races in the future, I'll feel more at ease knowing you have these 'Abyss Stones' with you, won't I?"

"What? Going to Chaos City?"

King Huan Kong also knew about Ye Yun's situation and immediately reacted, exclaiming,

"Could it be that, Ye Yun, you are preparing"...

"That's right, I have officially decided to break through to the Realm Lord level after a period of rest!"

Ye Yun's face was now filled with confident and radiant expression,

"After going to Chaos City to receive 800 years of guidance from the City Lord of Chaos, I will step onto the battlefield of all races, hoping to find my path to immortality in endless battles!"

After Ye Yun finished speaking, King Huan Kong fell silent for a moment. After a long while, King Huan Kong slowly nodded and said in a low voice,

"Ye Yun, I have always felt that you have your own ideas, and this time it is indeed so. I can only say that it is indeed a decision made by Ye Yun!

Alright! I will help you keep these 'Abyss Stones,' hoping that you can be brave and diligent, and become a member of the immortal powerhouses of our Virtual Universe Company!"

King Huan Kong was not absorbed into the Virtual Universe Company at a very low level like Ye Yun, but joined the Virtual Universe Company after becoming a Realm Lord through assessment.

Therefore, King Huan Kong had not experienced the training route of talented elites like Ye Yun, and was not particularly clear about the characteristics of this training route.

If others heard Ye Yun's decision, their reaction would definitely be much greater than King Huan Kong's. You must know, how long has it been since Ye Yun became a Universe-level member of the Virtual Universe Company's Primitive Secret Realm? It can be said that he has not yet experienced the first Secret Realm Qualification War, and has not fully enjoyed all the benefits and treatments set by the Virtual Universe Company for Universe-level members.

Not to mention, for example, those training missions open to Universe-level core members. Each mission can not only obtain point rewards, but also, depending on one's own strength and luck in the mission world, one might be able to obtain heaven-defying opportunities and greatly improve one's future potential.

Moreover, when one is at the Universe level, in addition to the dangers hidden in the mission world, cultivation can be said to be very comfortable, and it is very easy and pleasant with various resource supplies.

Once one breaks through to the Domain Lord level, they will be dispatched by the Virtual Universe Company to become a 'regional governor' of sorts. Not only will it become more difficult to earn points, but they will also face unknown dangers due to being separated from the Virtual Universe Company's close protection.

The World Lord level is even more so. As the last realm before breaking through to the Undying level, the Virtual Universe Company's attitude towards World Lord level members is even more demanding, requiring them to carry out various dangerous tasks to hone themselves and increase their chances of entering the Undying level.

It can be said that the Universe level is the last period of time for core members of the Virtual Universe Company to cultivate in peace. After this, everything will no longer be so simple.

Therefore, many Universe-level core members of the Virtual Universe Company, even if they cannot always stay in the Primal Secret Region, will not choose to break through to the Domain Lord level in a short period of time. Instead, they will stay at the Universe level for a long time to make good use of the Virtual Universe Company's resources to improve themselves.

When their comprehension of laws and secret method cultivation reaches a certain level, such as entering the tenth level of the Tongtian Bridge, and the Universe level realm increasingly restricts them, they will consider breaking through to the Domain Lord level.

After meeting Venerable Yumo and Venerable Zhou Niu in the virtual universe, Ye Yun finally gained some peaceful time for himself.

Like the last time he returned from Viska Star, Ye Yun, upon returning, did not make any arrangements. He directly locked himself in his room and slept comfortably for three days and three nights.

After three days, Ye Yun suddenly felt that the oppression of the past twenty years had been swept away, and his whole person became incomparably relaxed. The insights deep within his heart faintly showed a tendency to explode.

Work-life balance, work-life balance. Only by truly doing it can one understand the true meaning contained in this sentence. After completely relaxing, Ye Yun can finally put his energy back into cultivation and comprehension.

Regarding the stone tower fragment obtained from the Purgatory Abyss, Ye Yun had tried to analyze and nurture it on the way back. As expected, it was consistent with his expectations. The stone tower represents the life gene material of the 'Small Purgatory Abyss'. Currently, with his main body's life gene level, he is completely unable to fully analyze it.

This means that Ye Yun is not yet able to obtain the 'Purgatory Abyss' clone at this stage. However, Ye Yun is not in a hurry at all. His current life gene level, through the continuous absorption of water balls over the past twenty years, has reached five times the level of a normal life form.

Although the difficulty of improvement will increase later, Ye Yun's advantage lies in the endless resources for improvement. As long as he is given time, he will eventually be able to reach the conditions sufficient to complete the analysis and nurturing of the 'Small Purgatory Abyss'.

'Next, I will break through to the Domain Lord level... But before that, there is one more important thing to try.'

Ye Yun's thoughts flashed through his mind, and his consciousness entered his inner world. At this time, the Qiulin tribe clone, dressed in purple, was suspended in the mid-air of the inner world, and in front of him, the 'Water-Space Heart' emitting a silver-blue light, was quietly rotating.

Ever since the 'Gentle Water Heart' underwent a mutation, Ye Yun had a very bold idea in his mind, that is, whether he could let the Qiulin tribe clone absorb this 'Water-Space Heart', integrate the characteristics contained in the 'Water-Space Heart' into itself, and enhance the Qiulin tribe clone's potential and upper limit.

You must know that all along, Ye Yun's Qiulin tribe clone has not been very strong in actual combat. Although it shares Ye Yun's comprehension of laws and secret method cultivation, in actual combat, it is completely not a match for Ye Yun's main body, which has abnormal talents in all aspects.

Ye Yun's original intention in choosing the Qiulin tribe as his first clone was for the Qiulin tribe's powerful will talent, and the heaven-defying effect of its own energy essence liquid, which can enhance the strength of will. He did not pay so much attention to combat power at the beginning.

But now, after experiencing several missions, Ye Yun has realized the power of energy life forms, that is, they can almost adapt to any environment, and the characteristic that their forms are not restricted and can be freely changed is undoubtedly very suitable for exploring the way and is a good choice for preserving life.

In this situation, Ye Yun knows that the future requirements for the strength of the Qiulin tribe clone will inevitably become higher and higher. If it cannot be improved, then the Qiulin tribe clone will become increasingly unable to assume the role of exploring the way. In terms of combat and exploration, it cannot provide any help to Ye Yun.

Therefore, although Ye Yun will not regret choosing the Qiulin tribe clone as his first clone, he also wants to improve the Qiulin tribe's potential and limit as much as possible.

As an energy life form with an energy core, energy essence crystals like the 'Water-Space Heart' undoubtedly have a certain possibility of fusion and absorption.

Ye Yun was inspired by the fact that Luo Feng's Mosha clan absorbed and fused that rare 'Space Heart' in the original book.

The Mosha clan clone, which was already the strongest hunting race in the universe, not only became more stable in its identity as the 'Son of Space' after absorbing and fusing the 'Space Heart', but also greatly improved its talent in the aspect of the origin law of space, and even its own life form changed.

It even possessed the second talent secret method—Domain, completely ignoring space blockade, and could move freely. Space in his hands was like a naturally mastered art, incomparably powerful.

Of course, Ye Yun understands that Luo Feng's Mosha clan clone could successfully fuse the 'Space Heart' because the Mosha clan clone's own energy crystal nucleus was very similar in structure to the 'Space Heart', both representing the external manifestation of the origin law of the primal universe space, so they were naturally incomparably compatible.

And his Qiulin tribe clone is actually just an ordinary energy life form, without any other talent in terms of laws, and is even completely incompatible with the water origin law and space origin law represented by the 'Water-Space Heart'.

From any point of view, Ye Yun's idea has no chance of success. It is difficult for the Qiulin tribe clone to perfectly fuse with the 'Water-Space Heart' to obtain a super-evolutionary change, and it may even waste the precious 'Water-Space Heart'.

Ye Yun in the room smiled and shook his head, took out more than a dozen silver-blue 'Water-Space Hearts' from his ring, and put them into his inner world.

Waste?

If wasting can achieve the goal, then for Ye Yun, it is undoubtedly the best news. He has nothing else, but he has enough capital to waste.

Today, temporarily 4000. Next, according to my idea, I will skip the Domain Lord stage and directly enter the World Lord stage.

I can reveal to everyone that in the early stage of the World Lord level, I will enter the universe range of alien races to perform tasks for the Virtual Universe Company. I hope I can write it with some novelty.
