Chapter 230: Breakthrough to True God, Return to the Original Source, Secret Method Changes
"Finally, I broke through to the True God realm!"

Shen Mu's tone was slightly emotional as he felt the surging power in his body.

Endless divine power surges in the body, and every drop of divine power is like a universe, reflecting endless time and space, evolving the cycle of life and death, and being immortal.

To be precise, Shen Mu has not yet made a breakthrough, but his divine body has evolved to one hundred thousand times perfection and can break through at any time.

Shen Mu felt that the strength of his divine body was already comparable to that of the True God of the Void, who had not practiced any secret body-refining techniques, had no bloodline, and had not followed a genetic evolutionary path.

Based on the information in the Xuji Sect's inheritance, Shen Mu was able to judge how strong his divine body was.

Generally speaking, before reaching the Chaos Realm, Shen Mu's divine body strength can completely crush those at the same level.

Even in the Chaos Realm, the rarity of the Infinite Divine Body has greatly depreciated, but it is enough to make Shen Mu's divine body invincible in the Chaos Realm. He can even challenge the God King with his powerful divine body.

At this moment in the ocean of the universe, countless powerful beings came back to their senses in shock.

"The leader must have broken through to the True God realm!"

"Yes, I just don't know what kind of feat the leader accomplished to cause such a big commotion."

"I don't know. When I was training in the Jin World, I did understand the changes that occur when one breaks through to become a True God. But even if one is taking the path of divine power, there won't be any anomalies."

"Why think so much? The leader is the most gifted person in the endless dimension and time and space. I won't be surprised even if he causes any strange phenomena."

"Haha, that's right. The leader's realm of the Lord of the Universe is not weaker than that of a Void-level powerhouse. Now that he has broken through to become a True God, he will definitely have strength comparable to the four great generals of the Jin world!"

"This time, those beasts hiding in the gutter can no longer cause any trouble!"

Countless powerful people in the universe and the sea were not only celebrating, but also overjoyed, and were happy to see Shen Mu become more powerful.

Generally speaking, if you are just a little bit better than others, they will be jealous, or even hate you and try to harm you.

But if you are stronger to a certain extent, they will admire, praise you and even submit to you, and will hope that you will become stronger and stronger.

The strong men in the universe sea probably have this mentality.

……

"Amu, have you made a breakthrough?"

Tang Yongqing looked at Shen Mu with a slightly trembling voice.

I don’t know why, but ever since Shen Mu’s breakthrough, he has been emitting a special charm.

This charm made her a little...uncontrollable.

This is probably the attraction of perfect life to ordinary life. Admiration for the strong is a desire that comes from genetic instinct.

"Congratulations, Dad!"

"Dad, how much stronger are you now than before?"

Shen Mingyue and Shen Qingyang came up, staring at Shen Mu with sparkling eyes, not hiding their curiosity at all.

"The breakthrough is not over yet. You will know when it is completed."

While Shen Mu was speaking, the other four divine bodies had already rushed towards Shen Mu.

"According to the description of the 'copy' talent, my talent secrets will also be retained after I break through to True Godhood. I just don't know how it will be retained."

Shen Mu’s breakthrough to become a True God is no exception. Except for the True Dragon clone, all other clones will merge into one.

However, Shen Mu was not clear about how the secret method of clone would be preserved after the four divine bodies became one.

The headquarters of Hongmeng Continent, in the space mezzanine.

At this time, all the True God-level and Lord of the Universe-level powerful beings in the entire primitive universe have arrived.

Even those who were in seclusion were awakened by the vision of Shen Mu achieving a perfect divine body. The fluctuations of divine power emitted by many powerful people caused this space layer to show signs of collapse.

hum!
A vortex of time and space emerged, and then Shen Mu and Tang Yongqing walked out side by side. Suddenly, the eyes of thousands of strong men gathered over.

"Brother!"

"Alliance leader!"

"Hunyuan!"

Countless powerful men came over, and in the front were Shen Mu's parents, as well as Zuo Shanke, the Lord of Bingfeng, the Lord of Qianwu State, and Huyan Bo, the teacher.

Next to the many elders were the three brothers from Earth and their contemporaries, such as Chu Qiang from Earth, Rong Jun and Bolan from the Genius War period.

Shen Mu exchanged greetings with everyone, and then looked at Teacher Zuo Shanke.

"Teacher, I have lived up to your expectations and have come this far."

Shen Mu's smile was as confident and restrained as before, making everyone present feel at ease.

"Break through, kid. Let me see how amazing it is to become a true god with 100,000 times the genes." The hermit looked at Shen Mu with satisfaction.

Shen Mu nodded slightly, and his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared into his own realm of God.

……

In the vast kingdom of God with a diameter of tens of thousands of light years, a vast and solemn fluctuation of laws was spreading at this time.

All life and matter in the entire divine kingdom had now been transferred away by many powerful people in the Hong Alliance, leaving only the boundless chaotic sea, which was still surging.

In the center of the chaotic sea, an ancient giant tree took root above the ocean, with a vast territory lingering around it, even making time and space vaguely blurred, with some characteristics of a moment of emptiness.

Soon, the figure of the Yanshen clan's clone also rushed to Shen Mu's kingdom.

At this point, except for the true dragon clone, all of Shen Mu’s divine bodies have gathered together.

"Break it for me!"

Boom!

The fragile shackles were easily broken, and the invisible sea of ​​original laws descended above Shen Mu’s kingdom of God again.

This time, the sea of ​​original laws was endless and vast, as if there was no end in sight. It covered an area centered on the Hongmeng headquarters, with a diameter of more than tens of thousands of light years.

"This... is this the ocean of laws triggered by the breakthrough?"

"It's actually this big... I feel like this wave can crush my divine body at any time!"

Many true gods and lords of the universe were stunned, especially the newly-promoted lords of the universe, whose divine body genes were less than ten thousand times. They felt extremely insignificant in the face of this fluctuation of divine power.

With the cooperation of the original will of the universe, Shen Mu can absorb divine power to his heart's content and complete his transformation.

Of course, the will of the original universe must also follow the supreme rules, and Shen Mu needs to actively absorb divine power. How much he can absorb within the limited time depends entirely on Shen Mu's ability.

Wow!
Infinite divine power poured back, devouring this terrifying divine power. Shen Mu's four divine bodies were rapidly improving.

The descent of the ocean of the law of origin lasted for more than a whole year.

With the speed at which Shen Mu absorbed divine power, more than a year would be enough for the four great divine bodies to be elevated to an extreme level.

"The reserves of divine power of the four great divine bodies are the same as that of the Dark Sea clone with a diameter of 12 light years. This is the limit under the rules."

Theoretically speaking, if there were no restrictions, the size of a perfect divine body could be expanded infinitely.

But theory is just theory after all. When it comes to the Continent of Origin, the divine body is suppressed by the Source World. Even a perfect divine body cannot have the current scale.

"That's it. Next up is the expansion of the miniature universe!"

Shen Mu's mind moved, and the kingdom of God with a diameter of tens of thousands of light years roared.

Along with the violent turmoil, the boundary wall of the Kingdom of God, which had originally stagnated in expansion, began to expand rapidly.

Boom!

A void channel emerged, and endless violent chaotic airflow poured into Shen Mu's kingdom of God, turning into a source of energy for the expansion of the small universe.

It will also take time to expand from the Kingdom of God to a small universe.

Generally speaking, it takes several days. Since Shen Mu's kingdom of God was far superior to others, the initial expansion was completed in just over three days.

"The diameter has exceeded 100 million light years!"

"It's done, it's done!"

When the diameter of the Kingdom of God reached 100 million light years, the quantitative change led to a qualitative change. The original membrane wall of the Kingdom of God underwent a transformation, becoming condensed countless times and thicker countless times, forming the membrane wall of the universe.

“Still expanding, still expanding!”

"The leader's small universe is indeed different from the small universes of other true gods!"

"It's a pity that I couldn't enter the Alliance Leader's small universe to watch the process of this evolution."

Countless powerful men stared at the still expanding small universe and shouted loudly, without any demeanor of a strong man.

As the small universe grows larger, the efficiency of swallowing up the chaotic airflow also increases exponentially, so the speed of expansion has always been an acceleration. …

Outside the primordial universe, looking from afar, you will find a bulge in a corner of the primordial universe.

As time went by, the bulge grew larger.

Bang!
It was like a steel needle piercing a balloon, and standing far away it seemed as if you saw a glass bead breaking away from the primordial universe.

But this glass bead is a bit big.

The diameter is exactly one billion light years, no more, no less.

"A billion light years!"

"When the First Progenitor achieved the Void Level, it was just over a billion light years."

"The leader is worthy of being the leader."

Shen Mu already knew the result, so he was not shocked at all.

This is the horror of a hundred thousand times the life gene. Whether it is the strength of divine power or the foundation of the small universe, it is comparable to the existence that has just entered the void level.

Now the entire universe sea is under the command of Hongmeng. This news spread throughout the entire Hongmeng almost immediately.

Only the Purple Moon Holy Land had no news at all.

After all, the Purple Moon Holy Land is now unable to take care of itself, and the world beasts that are lingering in the cosmic sea are almost all near the Purple Moon Holy Land, because they have discovered that by devouring the origin of the Purple Moon Holy Land, they will not be attacked by Shen Mu.

"The universe has expanded, and the next step is to merge the clones into one and construct the universe."

"Return to the origin, collapse!"

As Shen Mu's mind moved, the four divine bodies suddenly collapsed, and endless divine power intertwined to condense into a heart.

In the core of the cosmic ship, the True Dragon clone also condensed his own True God Heart at this moment.

The Heart of the True God is the true body of the strong ones at the level of True God and above, which is somewhat similar to a prokaryote.

"Unity!"

Endless divine power gathered and began to take shape as Shen Mu.

Soon, a handsome man with black hair and black eyes emerged, with a brilliant glow on his body.

hum!
Countless secret patterns dissolved in Shen Mu's body. Those were the eight innate secret techniques that Shen Mu copied.

However, these secret patterns did not disappear directly, but instead condensed again outside Shen Mu's body.

A faint light emerged from the depths of Shen Mu's soul, forming a strange cube.

This cube gave off a special wave, and under this wave, the secret patterns of the innate secret technique that was stripped from Shen Mu's divine body re-condensed in the void.

Shen Mu felt a faint pulling sensation, which was stimulating his divine power.

"Need my divine power?"

Shen Mu's mind moved, and a drop of divine power emitting brilliant light gushed out.

Suddenly, the eight secret patterns seemed to have found a carrier and merged into Shen Mu's drop of divine power.

Boom!

An indescribable force of creation emerged and transformed Shen Mu's drop of divine power.

hum!
In the blink of an eye, this drop of divine power split into eight drops of blood, each drop of blood having a different color and aura.

But there is no doubt that the intensity of the fluctuations is at the level of a true god.

"Is this...the power of blood?"

With the inheritance of Xuji Sect, Shen Mu was naturally able to recognize the power of blood.

Although the eight drops of blood have different auras and colors, they are undoubtedly Shen Mu's own blood, just with some bloodline power blended in.

There are two ancient countries in the continent of origin. The ancient country of Yanfeng emphasizes the lineage of enlightened people, while the ancient country of Lei Ting emphasizes the bloodline cultivation system.

Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. One has a solid foundation and fewer bottlenecks, while the other has extremely fast training speed in the early stages and strong combat power.

call out!
Eight drops of blood turned into a stream of light and returned to Shen Mu's body. Suddenly, the eight special powers perfectly integrated into Shen Mu's divine body.

"The secret innate ability... has been preserved in this form."

Shen Mu felt the power of eight different bloodlines. Although these eight bloodlines were very weak and only at the true god level, each had its own special abilities.

The Devouring Secret Technique evolved into the Devouring Dao bloodline. The effect was the same as the original Devouring Secret Technique, giving Shen Mu the ability to devour everything and digest it quickly.

In addition, this bloodline also gave Shen Mu an affinity for the Devouring Dao, but the affinity was not high, just like that of ordinary creatures who achieved true gods by relying on the Devouring Dao bloodline.

But it’s better to have it than nothing, and the same goes for other secret methods.

The secret method of teleportation evolved into the 'Void Dao' bloodline, and the ability of fixed teleportation became the power to control the void. In an environment similar to the cosmic sea, one can still teleport.

The secret method of clone is to condense into a kind of "Creation Dao" bloodline. In addition to giving Shen Mu affinity with the Great Dao of Creation, it also has the ability to condense additional True God's Heart.

A true god's heart means that Shen Mu can have an incarnation that is exactly the same as his original self.

The True God-level 'Creation Dao' bloodline can condense an additional True God Heart, and the Chaos-level bloodline can condense a second True God Heart.

Only by transforming to the level of God King and carrying the perfect "Great Way of Creation" can one condense the third heart of the true God.

The secret law of soul-hosting evolved into the 'Soul Dao' bloodline, which gave Shen Mu the ability to split the origin of the soul and a certain degree of soul defense enhancement.

The secret technique of the Divine Eye also evolved into a kind of 'Soul Path' bloodline, but it was biased towards the 'illusion' aspect, giving Shen Mu a certain degree of enhancement in illusion attack and defense.

The Heart Thunder Secret Art also evolved into the 'Soul Dao' bloodline, and its effect was to increase the willpower, making Shen Mu's will more concentrated than the will of the same level, and more violent when using his willpower to impact.

Next is the ability of 'immortality', which is a bloodline ability rather than a secret innate talent. The effect remains unchanged, giving Shen Mu additional affinity with the 'Path of Immortality'.

The last one is the eighth type, the 'Path of Life' bloodline, which gives Shen Mu a stronger recovery ability, and complements the immortality ability, making Shen Mu's divine essence more difficult to be erased, and greatly improving his defense.

The eight bloodlines are all basic true god-level bloodlines. If Shen Mu wants to break through in the future, he can also choose to follow the bloodline cultivation system.

As long as one of his bloodlines is promoted to the Void level, Shen Mu will naturally break through to become the Void True God.

"The bloodline cultivation system can be practiced concurrently, but the main position of the enlightenment route is unshakable."

"What surprised me was the ability of the Azure Dragon clone."

Shen Mu's gaze crossed endless time and space and fell on Qinglong's clone.

The Qinglong clone also gained the power of blood, but it was not the eight bloodlines in Shen Mu.

It is the bloodline of 'Way of Order', and its abilities are even more extraordinary, possessing abilities that are not restricted by rules.

Of course, the true god-level 'Order Dao' bloodline cannot have too great an effect. Ignoring the rules of the universe may not be a big problem, such as the sixth-order restriction in the original universe.

But if it comes to ignoring the supreme rules... maybe you will have a chance only if you advance to the God King level.

"The bloodline of the Dao of Order should be the effect of my golden finger."

"Plundering other people's innate secrets, and after reaching the True God realm, being able to preserve the effects of the secrets in an alternative way is in itself a violation of the rules."

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that it goes against the rules. After all, at Shen Mu's level, he can't yet bring out the true power of the golden finger.

However, to say that the golden finger is exploiting loopholes in the rules is a very appropriate description.

Shen Mu originally thought that after becoming a true god, he would be able to understand the true nature of his golden finger, but now it seems that he was overthinking.

"There must be a reason why I was able to obtain this golden finger. If it's just a coincidence, I don't believe it."

"There must be something special about me that gave me this golden finger."

As he became more powerful, Shen Mu began to speculate about the origin of his golden finger.

Perhaps, I am a test subject of some lord-level boss?

Countless possibilities surged in Shen Mu's heart, and billions of thoughts appeared in an instant.

After a moment, Shen Mu slowly shook his head and looked into the distance: "Good fortune and bad fortune go hand in hand. It's useless to think too much. Improving your strength is the right way."

"Let's begin the final transformation."

Shen Mu can only be considered a pseudo-true god now, because the small universe has no structure and has never experienced chaotic evolution.

As the small universe began its final evolution, Shen Mu's consciousness also entered a state of chaotic evolution.

The vast and majestic law of chaos... at this moment took off its "dress" in front of Shen Mu, revealing the "delicate body" hidden beneath the surface.
