Chapter 441 The Divine Eye Clan makes a move, and the Primordial Secret Technique advances to the next level!
To take a ninth-tier True God as a servant?
In fact, Chen Yuan's initial thought was to refuse, since with his strength, there was really no need for him to take in another soul servant.
For example, the three Zerg sisters he enslaved back then have long since lost the strength to keep up with his progress, and now they have been released to take a break on Earth.
Since he wasn't after the other party's strength, Chen Yuan naturally didn't want to waste his enslavement slots—given his growth rate, he estimated that only world beasts were barely qualified to be enslaved.
But just as Chen Yuan was about to refuse, he suddenly paused, because he remembered something.
"This First True God, if I remember correctly, should be at the peak of the ninth rank—"
Chen Yuan pondered, "Although the opponent did not break through to the Void True God level in the original story, that was because the World Beast Calamity broke out, and the First True Lord died at the hands of the World Beast."
"Otherwise, this cycle of reincarnation still has more than six trillion epochs to go, and the outcome is still unknown."
After all, breaking through to the Void True God realm isn't that difficult; all it takes is creating a secret technique of the tenth level.
For these top-tier ninth-tier experts, there is indeed a glimmer of hope.
"To reach the top of the ninth rank without any guidance, the person already possesses a certain talent. If they could receive guidance from the inheritance, their chances of breaking through would increase significantly."
Chen Yuan calculated in his mind that, for him, accepting the First True God would only require sacrificing a little energy for resurrection and some insignificant inheritance.
If the First True Lord is capable enough to break through to the Void True God realm, then the future human race will have one more Holy Land universe.
Most importantly, if the opponent's breakthrough time is short enough that he hasn't even entered the cycle of reincarnation yet—wouldn't he be able to separate a wisp of his avatar and take advantage of the situation to sneak into the Origin Continent ahead of time?
The benefits of entering the Origin Continent ahead of time are obvious: a more suitable cultivation environment and endless precious materials.
It should be noted that what is considered a powerful wonder in the cosmic sea is nothing more than stones and pieces of wood that can be found everywhere on the Origin Continent.
For Chen Yuan, these materials not only meant a large influx of energy, but also a trace of the power of the Great Dao analyzed by the Eye of Primordial Beginning.
Little by little, one can accumulate a great deal; as long as he analyzes enough material, one day he will be able to piece together a complete message related to the Great Dao.
So here's the question: since smuggling has so many advantages, can God the First grant his wish and break through in a short time?
"I don't care if he can break through or not; it's just a minor move anyway."
Chen Yuan blinked. "Anyway, I didn't invest much. It's just a gamble on probability. If I succeed, I'll definitely make a fortune, and even if I fail, I won't lose much."
Thinking of this, he looked at the First God: "Are you sure you want to sell yourself? Just to exchange for the resurrection of the other Gods?"
"I'm sure."
The First God solemnly declared: "I feel it was well worth it to exchange my freedom for the resurrection of a few!"
In fact, he had another reason he didn't mention: after becoming Chen Yuan's slave, as the closest soul servant, Chen Yuan would at least train him a little.
Putting aside everything else, even if he were given a complete True God-level inheritance, his chances of breaking through to Void True God before the end of this cycle of reincarnation would be much greater than before, if not guaranteed.
As long as he can become a Void God—even if he becomes a soul servant of the Primordial Lord at that time, it will not affect his feelings for his race, and he will most likely be able to preserve some of his people to continue the lineage in the future.
Of course, if he is really too useless and fails to break through, then he can only ask his future master for a few spots, at least to ensure the continuation of the clan.
As for whether the Primordial Lord can break through the cycle of reincarnation—there's no need to even think about it. Given the talent he has shown, it would be strange if he couldn't break through.
Thus, the two, each with their own agendas, hit it off immediately, and with the Third God as witness, the First God became Chen Yuan's soul servant.
"Owner."
After the soul imprint was planted, the First God's expression completely changed, and his eyes were full of reverence as he looked at Chen Yuan.
"Alright, no need for formalities." Seeing that the other party was about to bow again, Chen Yuan waved his hand: "First True Lord, as agreed, I will resurrect the other True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan."
"Master, just call me by my real name, Divine Eye."
Divine Eye True Lord respectfully said, "It is a great honor for Divine Eye that Master is willing to fulfill the agreement."
"Hmm—you should tone it down a bit." Looking at the exceptionally respectful Divine Eye True Lord, Chen Yuan felt a little uncomfortable. He took a deep breath, and with the two of them as witnesses, he reversed time and space once again.
A moment later, the other True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan all revived. After the explanation from the Divine Eye True Lord and the Third True Lord, these people had no choice but to accept the reality that their eldest brother had become someone else's servant.
Afterwards, the Allah with Divine Eyes gave instructions to the other Allahs regarding the future development of the tribe.
First, they focused on restoring the extinct beings in their respective universes. Then, they used the power of their entire race to collect various remnants and accumulate the source of the Great Dao. Finally, they gradually revived the universe lords who had perished along with their smaller universes due to their destruction.
Fortunately, the cost of resurrecting the Lord of the Universe is not high. Even if they resurrected all the Lords of the Universe, the cost would be far less than resurrecting a single true god. This is why the God-Eye True God was willing to sell himself to revive the other true gods.
Because Chen Yuan was too ruthless, he valued a True God as if he were the most powerful treasure, resulting in the cost of resurrecting a True God being as high as three million Sources of the Great Dao. This amount of resources could even be used to resurrect thousands of Universe Lords.
As a result, apart from the Divine Eye Clan, no one in the entire universe can afford this price, including the two holy lands.
In any case, Chen Yuan does not intend to change the price in the short term, because both supreme treasures and true gods are extremely rare within the universe, and he does not want to make such existences too common.
He will only consider lowering the price of the most powerful treasures when the world of Jin arrives and true god-level treasures begin to appear in large quantities.
As for the number of resurrected gods, he felt that things were fine as they were and he wouldn't change them.
Soon, the Divine Eye True Lord finished explaining to several of his people, and after they left, he stayed behind.
"Owner."
The Allah of the Divine Eye spoke respectfully: "The Divine Eye begs your forgiveness, Master. Before fulfilling the agreement, I concealed part of the reason—"
He then revealed his true intentions. Chen Yuan didn't react much after listening, but just smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's all for the sake of the clan, I understand."
"However, in my opinion, instead of placing your hopes on me, you should think more about yourself."
Chen Yuan glanced at the Divine Eye True Lord and continued, "As far as I know, although the Divine Eye Clan existed in the first era of reincarnation, you, True Lord, became a ninth-order True God long before the end of the first era."
"Your talent is indeed not weak, being able to cultivate to this stage on your own without relying on the guidance of your lineage. However, you lack higher-level guidance and have lost your ambition and drive after wasting a long time."
"By adding these two things, I believe you will have a good chance of breaking through your limitations."
With that, Chen Yuan waved his hand, took out thirty-nine memory stones, and said, "Since you have acknowledged me as your master, I cannot treat you unfairly. These are thirty-nine Void-level inheritances, which I will give to you today. I hope you will study them carefully."
The Divine Eye True Lord gazed at the Memory Stone before him. Each line of inheritance was something he had longed for, and now there were a full thirty-nine! He was overjoyed: "Thank you, Master! The Divine Eye will definitely focus on cultivation!"
"Hmm." Chen Yuan nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "In this way, to relieve you of any worries, after you have learned these inheritances, I will allow you to choose one to pass on to your clan."
"In addition, I can make you another promise—if you really find it difficult to break through in the future, then I can promise a portion of the Holy Land universe slots to ensure that your race can continue."
"!!!" Upon hearing this, the Divine Eye True Lord's pupils trembled violently. He did not expect that his master would not only not be angry about his concealment, but would even help him fulfill his wish without holding a grudge, all so that he could concentrate on his cultivation.
Thinking of this, the Divine Eye True Lord felt a deep sense of gratitude and couldn't help but bow down: "Divine Eye, thank you for your promise, Master. I will certainly live up to your expectations and break through as soon as possible."
"Okay, get up." Chen Yuan nodded and smiled. "Then I won't keep you any longer. Your task now is to focus on your secluded cultivation and break through to the next level."
"Yes!" The Divine Eye True Lord stood up and respectfully said, "The Divine Eye takes his leave."
"Go."
After the Divine Eye True Lord left, Chen Yuan gazed at the empty space alone and murmured to himself, "Your talent is not bad, but your willpower is still lacking. Whether you can break through that shackle depends on whether you put in enough effort."
With Chen Yuan's level of understanding and willpower, as long as he was willing to observe carefully, it would not be difficult for him to see the main problem of the Divine Eye True Lord.
In his view, the key to whether the other party can break through is whether they can study relentlessly. As long as they have this kind of fanatical focus, then breaking through is only a matter of time.
Therefore, Chen Yuan gave both the inheritance and the promise, hoping to change Shenyan's hesitant personality and get him to devote himself wholeheartedly to cultivation.
"I hope that after you've shed all responsibility, you can bring me some surprises."
After sighing a couple of times, Chen Yuan stopped paying attention to the matter and let it develop freely, since it was just a minor move anyway.
Meanwhile, when the True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan left the Tower of Primordial Beginning, the crowds watching from the outside world were finally thrown into shock.
"Look! Those are the six True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan!"
"Rumor has it that they all died at the hands of the Primordial Lord, but unexpectedly they have been resurrected by him today."
"I remember that the resurrection project in the Tower of Primordial Chaos was extremely expensive, especially the resurrection of the strongest beings in the universe, which was terrifyingly expensive—how did the Divine Eye Clan manage to resurrect six True Gods?"
"I don't know. I only saw the First God enter the Primordial Tower with a few treasures, but those treasures are clearly far from enough!"
"Speaking of which, where is God the First? Why didn't he come out with us?"
"...
—"
Everyone quickly noticed the anomaly: it was clearly the First True Lord who entered the Tower of Primordial Beginning, so why did the other six True Lords leave together?
Some true gods who were familiar with the Divine Eye Clan couldn't help but ask this question, but were met with silence in return.
The True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan clearly had no intention of answering. After leaving the Tower of Primordial Beginning, they hurriedly teleported away, leaving behind a group of bewildered people.
Not long after the God-Eye Clan's True Lord left, the figure of the God-Eye True Lord finally appeared outside the tower.
Faced with the crowd's doubts, the Divine Eye True Lord did not remain silent. Instead, with the intention of promoting his master, he smiled and replied, "It's very simple, because I have chosen to become the soul servant of the Primordial Lord."
"Thanks to my master's mercy, he resurrected my people and bestowed upon me the legacy of an ancient civilization."
"Oh, of course." After a pause, the Divine Eye True Lord continued with a smile, "All of the above services can be purchased at the Primordial Tower. There is no need to sell yourself; all you need is enough Source of the Great Dao."
"Alright, I'm going back to focus on my seclusion now. From now on, all affairs of the Divine Eye Clan will be handled by the other six True Lords. Farewell, everyone."
After saying this, the Divine Eye True Lord did not linger. He teleported away and left, eager to learn the inheritance.
And God the Eye's words finally answered everyone's doubts. It turned out that God the Eye chose to betray himself in order to bring the six true gods back to life.
Regardless of the price the other side paid, the resurrected six true gods were real, which meant that everyone's previous speculations about the power of resurrection had finally been settled.
That is, the Primordial Lord can truly resurrect the true gods, and it's not just a show put on for them with an exorbitant price tag.
This news, relayed by numerous traders, began to spread rapidly throughout the entire universe.
Before long, almost everyone knew that the Primordial Lord had the ability to resurrect the Lord of the Universe and True God powerhouses!
Of course, along with this news, the list of items for sale in the Tower of Primordial Beginning was also released.
As a result, more and more people flocked in. Some came for the treasures sold in the Tower of Primordial Chaos, while others went for the inheritance of ancient civilizations. Of course, many others came to resurrect their companions.
Time passed quietly, and after the booming business of the Tower of Primordial Beginnings in the previous years, business gradually began to cool down. However, it was not deserted; there was still some foot traffic every day.
At the top of the Tower of Primordial Beginnings, Chen Yuan looked at the balance on the panel and was grinning from ear to ear.
[Source of the Great Dao: 16.87 billion units, Yuan Shen Body Absorption Efficiency: 2480 units/year]
In just a few years, his Dao Source increased by a staggering 13 billion!
"The cosmic sea is indeed much richer than the primordial universe."
Chen Yuan was very satisfied. "Even though the peak of business has passed, I still earn 70,000 to 80,000 every day. With the revenue from the Primal Universe, my daily income is close to 200,000."
Two hundred thousand a day, that's more than seventy million a year!
"The proficiency of the Primordial Hand has reached the sixth level, 34% proficiency. According to the standard of 5 billion Great Dao Sources at perfection, it is only 3 billion short."
"At the current rate of efficiency, it will be completed in less than fifty years."
Chen Yuan's eyes gleamed: "The Primordial Hand of the sixth level already corresponds to the God-King level. What level will the seventh level correspond to? A God-Emperor?"
As for the existence of Hunyuan, he felt it was unlikely.
According to the division of the Origin Continent, after the God King Ultimate Realm comes the God Emperor. Similar titles exist in other Origin Worlds: God Emperor, Witch Ancestor, Dao Lord, etc.
This realm is already the highest level under the cage. As long as one can transcend the God Emperor, one can at least become a high-level Chaos Origin Lifeform.
Therefore, theoretically, a God Emperor is equal to an ordinary primordial life form.
However, according to Chen Yuan's understanding, although the strength of a God Emperor and an ordinary Chaos Origin are similar, their life essence is completely different.
According to the classification of secret techniques, it's unlikely that one would jump directly from God-King to the Primordial Chaos level, so it's highly probable that one is still God-Emperor.
"Whether it is or not, it will be less than fifty years, and then we'll know."
Shaking his head, Chen Yuan didn't delve any deeper. He figured he'd find out sooner or later anyway, and he had plenty of patience to wait.
And so, as time went by, both the business of the Primordial Tower and Chen Yuan's various cultivation practices steadily improved.
At first, Chen Yuan thought that the Primordial Hand would be the first to break through, but unexpectedly, just a few years later, his other secret technique, the Primordial Eye, was the first to complete the breakthrough.
"—I almost forgot."
Chen Yuan patted his head. "Ever since I moved the Tomb Ship to the Black Pattern Stone Pillar area, although my avatar can't enjoy the acceleration of the cultivation space, it can be affected by the external environment!"
"With over 300,000 times acceleration, my analysis of the treasures in the treasure room went very smoothly, and the Eye of Primordial Beginning naturally reached the sixth level."
The sixth level, the Primordial Eye, corresponds to the God-King level!
"Very good." Chen Yuan's face showed a hint of joy. "Keep up the good work! Once I've mastered half of the sixth level of the Primordial Eye, I'll be able to analyze the next level of information ahead of time."
His ultimate goal, of course, is to comprehend the primordial blood scale inside the Star Tower.
Although this scale comes from the Primordial Ancestor, one does not need a very high level of cultivation to comprehend its mysteries.
In the original story, after Luo Feng's will reached the God Emperor level, he was already able to sense the existence of this scale and begin to comprehend it normally.
Once Chen Yuan's Primordial Eye reaches a proficiency level of over 60%, he can be considered almost a half-god emperor, and naturally he will be able to observe that blood scale.
"Fortunately, there are still many treasures in the treasure room, which should be enough to upgrade the Primordial Eye by more than half."
After sensing the state of the avatar, Chen Yuan immediately withdrew his thoughts and devoted himself once again to the study of the essence of life.
Time flowed on, and forty-two years passed in the blink of an eye. Although the business of the Tower of Primordial Beginning experienced some fluctuations, it still completed the secret upgrade within the predetermined time.
Indeed, when Chen Yuan's energy reserves reached 49 billion, his Primordial Hand finally broke through to the seventh level, I.
It was at this moment that he finally realized that the realm corresponding to the seventh level was not the Hunyuan level, but the God Emperor level, which is the highest level below the Cage.
"As expected."
Chen Yuan was not surprised by this.
