The sea monsters behind them chased for a while, but stopped after leaving a certain range.
"call!"
Lu Yunhe floated back to the surface of the water. In this dead sea, there were several safe islands.
Once you step onto the island, you can rest for a while without worrying about losing your divine power.
"A significant amount of divine power has been lost!"
Lu Yunhe checked the remaining divine power in his body. The battle with the sea beast had consumed divine power comparable to that of the battle with the world beast, which made him secretly astonished.
Once divine power is depleted, there is no special way to replenish it by absorbing energy on one's own; the recovery process takes an extremely long time.
However, there is an even simpler method in the Dead Sea: constantly devouring sea monsters.
"Then let's keep eating fish!"
Without hesitation, Lu Yunhe rested for a while and then jumped into the water.
Wow...
As soon as he entered the water, the fish in the sea suffered. No matter how big or small they were, Lu Yunhe killed and devoured every single fish he saw.
One by one, the creatures in the Dead Sea were killed, and countless life gene maps appeared in Lu Yunhe's mind.
There's no need to go deep into the bottom for now; the main target is sea monsters with a size of 100,000 kilometers or less.
As for those sea monsters that are over 100,000 kilometers long, they are really difficult to kill in the deep sea, so let's wait and see.
"I thought there were endless kinds of marine mammals, but I didn't expect there to be some that are the same."
As he continued killing, Lu Yunhe completely lost track of how many he had killed. All he knew was that as the killing progressed, more and more repetitive life structure diagrams began to appear.
Fortunately, although the types are repeated, the quantity has not decreased at all, so you can still kill them to restore your divine body.
After the number of repeated life structure diagrams increased, Lu Yunhe set his sights on the larger sea beasts. He finally killed the first sea beast with a size exceeding 100,000 kilometers and obtained a life structure diagram that surpassed perfect genes.
It seems that upon entering this level, the Trial Tower had already detected Lu Yunhe's life essence. These life structure diagrams were all made of flesh and blood, with no other types.
Upon discovering this information, Lu Yunhe became completely absorbed in the hunt and did not attempt to venture to the deepest part of the Dead Sea.
After the Divine Tree clone broke through to True God, Lu Yunhe also reached the second level of Divine Power Flow, but his genetic level was only more than 60,000 times stronger.
The genetic limit of the second level of the Divine Power Flow is 89999 times. Although both are at the second level and there is no essential evolution, the difference is still quite significant.
Now that he has such a good opportunity to cultivate, Lu Yunhe will naturally not let it go. He will not only strive to reach the third level of the Divine Power Flow, but at least reach the limit of the second level.
There's still no result from Zetton's clone devouring the World Beasts, so Lu Yunhe doesn't want to cause trouble for the World Beasts or provoke them for the time being.
Lu Yunhe then resumed his cultivation in the Dead Sea, gradually improving his genetic level.
Lu Yunhe's main body was searching for genetic maps of advanced life forms in the Dead Sea, while Sphia's clone was constantly dissecting ordinary life forms in the primitive universe, and incidentally synthesizing genes to create entirely new life forms.
With a two-pronged approach, the third layer of divine power flow—the Zetton clone—serves as a reference, and the 100,000 genes of the World Beast provide guidance, in addition to his own true god-level substance.
With the fivefold blessing, Lu Yunhe's research speed on the divine power gene was astonishing, and he encountered almost no bottlenecks along the way.
65000...72000...85000...
Unbeknownst to him, 100,000 epochs had passed. Considering the time acceleration at the Black Pattern Stone Pillar, Lu Yunhe's cultivation this time had exceeded 10 billion years.
The time was long, but the gains were also great. In addition to the Divine Tree clone, the genetic level of Lu Yunhe's various clones also reached 89999 times, the limit of the second level of Divine Power Flow.
"As expected, there is still a gap."
Even though both are at the second level of the divine power flow, there is still a difference of nearly half between 60,000 times and nearly 90,000 times, which is equivalent to a difference of half in the quality of divine power.
"There shouldn't be any monsters from the third layer of the Divine Power Flow in the Dead Sea."
Lu Yunhe thought of the difference between the second and third levels of the Divine Power Flow. At the second level, his divine body still needed to be measured in kilometers, but once he reached the third level, he could change the unit to light-years.
woohoo hoo...
Lu Yunhe continued to sink deeper into the Dead Sea, and the surrounding pressure became increasingly astonishing, while his divine power was also rapidly draining away.
Finally, as they continued to sink, Lu Yunhe saw a deep-sea behemoth as large as himself. It was dark red all over, somewhat resembling a starfish, and had a mouth full of densely packed serrated teeth on its front, which was enough to trigger trypophobia.
Behind this starfish behemoth is a massive deep-sea whirlpool. Passing through it should allow you to enter the next level of the Trial Tower.
However, with the starfish behemoth guarding it, passing through is not an easy task.
"If it bites you, it'll probably hurt for a long time!"
Lu Yunhe's thoughts drifted, and then he unleashed his divine body, spanning hundreds of millions of kilometers, directly charging towards the starfish behemoth.
In an instant, the two enormous figures collided directly in the seawater.
Gulu...
The giant starfish's tentacles slapped against Lu Yunhe's body, and the countless mouths on its tentacles lay directly on the divine body, beginning to devour the divine power.
“So brutal!”
Lu Yunhe was startled. Without hesitation, he opened his mouth and bit one of the giant starfish's tentacles, and began to gnaw on it as well.
One mouth wasn't enough, so Lu Yunhe transformed his divine body, and countless arms extended from various parts of his body. Each arm had a giant, gaping mouth in its palm, and they went straight for the starfish beast's body.
High-level combat often requires only the simplest and most unadorned attacks.
Lu Yunhe and the giant seafood beast devoured each other's bodies frantically. They didn't have any special abilities or talents; it was all about who had stronger divine power.
The starfish behemoth has the home advantage and is also well-rested, giving it an edge in terms of divine energy consumption.
Lu Yunhe's descent into the ocean already consumed some of his divine power, and during the battle, he also had to endure the Dead Sea's debuff that further depleted his divine power, making him clearly unsuitable for a war of attrition.
therefore……
"Divine power ignited!"
Lu Yunhe's divine power surged. Although the equipment was disabled, he was still able to use secret techniques.
With his divine power burning, Lu Yunhe's attack power surged, instantly tilting the balance of power to one side.
Wow!
Lu Yunhe opened his enormous mouth, as if transforming into a colossal beast that devoured the entire starfish, his burning divine power digesting the foreign object like a refining furnace.
"belch!"
After swallowing the starfish behemoth, Lu Yunhe couldn't help but burp, and then spat out a golden object.
"Mechanical Treasure - Golden Armor God!"
“I didn’t expect there would be such a pleasant surprise!”
Lu Yunhe looked at the treasure with some surprise. He originally thought that the Dead Sea was the biggest reward, but he did not expect that there would be an extra reward after killing the gatekeeper boss.
That's right. To get to the next level of the Trial Tower, you only need to enter the vortex passage; there's no requirement to kill the gatekeeper boss.
……
Chapter 406 The Ultimate Combat Power of the Lord of the Universe
"Gold, silver, and bronze are truly the most precious treasures of standard machinery!"
Lu Yunhe put on a brand new golden battle armor, which should be able to boost his strength by one level compared to his previous silver armor.
The upper limit of these standard mechanical treasures is hard to say. They are likely not as good as Wuqi God, but for the level of the Lord of the Universe, the difference will not be too great.
After donning his new mechanical treasure, Lu Yunhe flew directly into the deep-sea vortex.
Swish!
After a shift in time and space, Lu Yunhe found himself in a pristine white world once again, where a familiar figure appeared.
"We meet again!"
The man in blue robes with long hair, who was also the guardian of the third level of the Trial Tower, reappeared in front of Lu Yunhe.
Looking at the similar figure, Lu Yunhe pondered, "It seems that this test is still about the level of secret techniques."
Thinking of this, Lu Yunhe's expression became somewhat strange, but he didn't say anything.
"That's right. This level is similar to the third level of the Trial Tower. As long as you can create an eighth-order secret technique, it shouldn't be too difficult to pass."
The man in blue robes with long hair nodded, and then a beam of light descended from the sky, revealing an unsheathed sword in his hand.
"Since you've already come this far, I'll start with the laws of fusion."
The man in blue robes with long hair raised his long sword slightly, and in an instant, golden light followed him like a shadow.
Seventh-tier top-tier secret technique!
The third level of the Trial Tower begins teaching sixth-order secret techniques, while the seventh level guides students starting with top-tier seventh-order secret techniques.
A top-tier seventh-order secret technique, which would be considered mid-level even among true gods, was perfectly executed by a cosmic lord.
Lu Yunhe remained unmoved and gently raised the weapon in his hand.
"Metal, Wood, Water, Fire—the Four Symbols are annihilated!"
hum...
In an instant, a profound and sinister aura rose from Lu Yunhe's body. The sword light in his hand gently deflected the long-haired man's sword shadow, shattering all the changes in the latter's attack, and then lightly touched the long-haired man's body.
bang...
Without any power to resist, the long-haired man exploded from the inside out, as if pierced by a thousand arrows, and his wrecked body was thrown out.
However, the long-haired man was actually a special creation in the Trial Tower. His shattered body, which had been sent flying, was restored to its original state in less than a second.
This was the man with long hair who had regained his original length. He didn't continue his attack, but instead stared at Lu Yunhe in astonishment: "A top-tier eighth-order secret technique?"
The Lord of the Universe's creation of a seventh-order secret technique is a testament to genius, while his ability to create an eighth-order secret technique is truly unparalleled.
As for top-tier eighth-order secret techniques, the number of beings capable of creating such a level at the stage of the Lord of the Universe is so small that it can be counted on one hand, even in the history of the Liuzhong Sect.
The long-haired man never expected that the trial participants would give him such a big surprise after he arrived on the seventh floor.
Moreover, if the long-haired man remembered correctly, it had only been a few hundred thousand epochs since the trial participants passed the third level.
To have advanced from the seventh-tier secret technique to the eighth-tier level in such a short time is simply beyond description as genius.
Even in the Origin Continent, those geniuses who wanted to create eighth-order or even top-tier eighth-order secret techniques at the Universe Lord stage all spent billions of epochs.
