Chapter 368 The Primordial Hand, Level Three! A Massive Amount of Primordial Energy!
Once the acquisition of the nine garbage star regions was arranged, Chen Yuan immediately handed over a supreme treasure of the highest realm to the clan, leaving it to the clan's discretion in how to distribute it.
Afterwards, he didn't rush to leave, but instead cultivated in the original secret realm for another three years as planned.
Once the fusion of comprehending the laws began to proceed smoothly, and his own ninth-tier materials were nearly exhausted, he then retrieved the current situation of the garbage star field through the virtual universe.
"Huh, the clan is quite efficient. In just three years, they have collected nearly a third of the debris. The World Rings have filled several warehouses."
Chen Yuan blinked. Those were all top-tier world rings, each measuring 100 million kilometers in length, width, and height. They could fill several warehouses, and one could only imagine the amount of debris collected inside.
Looking at the panel, I noticed that the proficiency of the Primordial Hand has reached level one, at 72%, while the conversion rate of the Nine Nether Sea has only reached 68%.
The main reason is that the quality of the materials is limited. He has refined all the high-level ninth-tier materials into top-tier treasures, leaving only materials below the fifth tier because he was too lazy to refine them. Therefore, these materials did not make the Primordial Hand perfect.
As for the Nine Nether Sea, the main reason is that the divine body is too enormous.
Secondly, as the proficiency of the Primordial Hand increases, the energy loss during energy conversion gradually decreases, and the energy provided to the Nine Nether Sea naturally decreases, which leads to a decrease in the efficiency of divine body conversion.
However, Chen Yuan wasn't too worried about the Nine Nether Sea, because he planned to use those remains to cultivate the Primordial Hand.
These remnants, which are below the ninth rank, are only one-tenth as efficient at increasing arcane proficiency as normal materials.
Correspondingly, the same increase in proficiency generates ten times the energy.
Therefore, Chen Yuan was confident that he would complete the transformation of the Nine Nether Sea Divine Body before the Primordial Hand was perfected, and there would even be a lot of surplus energy that could be used to expand the divine body.
In addition, in order to refine these remains more quickly, Chen Yuan also spent a lot of money during this period to optimize the Shiyuan Palace to level 9 of the tenth tier, increasing its permanent [Time Acceleration] ability to 10081 times.
In other words, Chen Yuan can now enjoy the time acceleration effect of the universe's limit and the huge internal space with a diameter of one hundred light-years without having to go to a small universe.
To this end, he directly used a small portion of the original energy reserves he had accumulated over the years to accelerate the process, which allowed him to complete the optimization of the Shiyuan Palace within three years.
"The original energy reserves are only slightly over 6 trillion."
Chen Yuan glanced at the panel. In fact, besides the Origin Palace, he had also spent one trillion units of energy to optimize the Void True God-level Virtual Universe Secret Technique.
Fortunately, optimizing the arcane technique only requires one percent of the cost; otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to afford to optimize it.
Currently, the optimization time for Void-level arcane techniques has reached at least one hundred years, and that's in simulated space time; if you include real-world optimization, it would take two hundred years.
However, he can accelerate the latter through primordial energy, especially after he broke through to the Cosmic Venerable realm and cultivated two chapters of the Primordial Life Law, which has greatly reduced the consumption of the task of accelerating optimization.
Compared to the exponential increase in consumption before, it is much less. No matter how long the task is shortened, the maximum consumption will not exceed the energy limit of the optimized task itself.
In other words, for the secret method of the virtual universe, as long as the simulation and rehearsal are completed in a hundred years, he can spend one trillion units of primordial energy to instantly complete the formal optimization task.
Therefore, for Chen Yuan, he only needs to wait another hundred years—no, ninety-seven years—to obtain the first Void True God-level secret technique that perfectly suits him.
"Of course, let's put aside whether it's a secret technique or not for now."
Chen Yuan put away the Qiyuan Palace and prepared to leave the Primordial Secret Realm. "Right now, what's most important to me is to refine those remains."
He had already placed the Star Tower inside the Primordial Palace, using the accelerated time environment inside to allow his clone to continue analyzing data and improve the progress of the Primordial Eye.
Subsequently, he used the optimized space teleportation to the familiar "Wulong Starfield". Not far from the palace of the starfield headquarters, Chen Yuan made no attempt to conceal his presence. As soon as he appeared, he displayed the pressure of a universe master, announcing his arrival.
"The direct management of the Wulong Star Region, come see me!"
"Come see me!"
"Come see me!"
His voice, imbued with divine power, echoed over a range of tens of light-years.
Soon, thousands of figures flew out from the magnificent palace complex not far away. Leading them were five Universe Venerables, followed by Immortal-level powerhouses.
Before long, these people approached Chen Yuan. The leader respectfully said to him, "You Demon Venerable, along with 5467 members of the management team from the Wulong Star Region, pay homage to the Primordial Lord!"
Behind the Demon Lord, the vast crowd bowed simultaneously, saying, "Greetings, Lord of the Primordial Beginning!"
Since the end of the Great Axe Conference, Chen Yuan had no need to conceal his identity, so not long after, the human race's high-ranking officials convened another grand meeting to announce the title of the Primordial Lord to all the universe's Venerables.
Although Chen Yuan did not attend that meeting, his name spread throughout the entire human race, and some of his past information naturally came into the view of some high-ranking officials.
Therefore, Chen Yuan was not surprised that these people could recognize him at a glance.
"Um."
He nodded slightly, his gaze turning to the leading Cosmic Venerable: "You are the Nether Demon Venerable?"
"Indeed." The Demon Lord bowed, appearing very modest, which was completely different from his bloody reputation in the universe.
Chen Yuan had some impression of this person and knew that he was the Universe Venerable of the Virtual Universe Company and the direct superior of Long Wang 'Tian Huan'.
He looked back and, sure enough, saw King Longjue bowing in greeting.
Get up.
Chen Yuan had no intention of reminiscing, and said indifferently, "You should know my purpose. Just find someone to take me to the warehouse."
"The others don't need to follow along; go back to what you're doing."
"Yes, sir." After saying this, the Netherworld Venerable instructed the person behind him: "Longjue, you take the Primordial Lord to the warehouse. The rest of you continue to monitor the star field and strictly investigate any instances of staff stealing or taking things."
"Yes!" Upon receiving the order, King Longjue and the other members of the management responded in unison.
"The Great Primordial Lord".
King Longjue quickly approached Chen Yuan with a respectful and ingratiating smile on his face: "Please follow me. The warehouse where the remains are stored is over here."
"Let's go." Chen Yuan nodded and followed King Longjue as they flew towards the palace complex.
After they left, most of the ordinary management also dispersed, leaving only the cosmic lords from the five major powers behind.
"I never imagined that a mere Domain Lord-level kid could become the Lord of the Universe in just over two thousand years."
A cosmic venerable being with dark blue-black skin shook his head and sighed.
"Venerable Blackwood, the Primordial Lord is not far away yet. If you don't want to cause trouble, I suggest you don't talk about the Lord of the Universe behind his back."
"The Demon Lord said calmly."
"Don't jump to conclusions. I'm just shocked by the experiences of the Primordial Lord, and I have no intention of disrespecting him in the slightest."
The dark-skinned Venerable Blackwood shook his head repeatedly. He was joking. Even if he were the Venerable of the Universe, daring to speak ill of the Lord of the Universe would certainly not end well.
"But the Demon Lord was really lucky; his subordinates were able to get involved with the Lord of the Universe back then."
Another cosmic venerable said with a hint of envy, "With this connection, you, Nether Demon, should be able to gain quite a bit of benefit from this restructuring of the Wulong Starfield."
"Haha, I just benefited from my subordinates' success."
The Demon Lord smiled and said, "Tian was truly lucky to have befriended the Primordial Lord when he was weak. Although the relationship wasn't exactly close, he at least left a good impression."
"With this background, Tian will benefit greatly from the restructuring of the Wulong Star Region. At the very least, he will be transferred to a lucrative position."
"That's why you specifically asked King Longjue to receive the Primordial Ruler, isn't it?"
The cosmic venerable one suddenly realized: "Having received the Lord of the Universe—that alone is enough to catch the attention of those in charge of personnel transfers to King Longjue. And upon further investigation of his past experiences—"
"Pengpeng, a king who has met the Lord of the Universe, this relationship alone is enough to give him a great promotion."
"Hehe, to put it bluntly, all of this was given the opportunity by the Primordial Lord."
The Demon Lord shook his head. "Otherwise, with the Primordial Lord's authority, wouldn't he know the location of the warehouse? Wouldn't he be unable to open it?"
"The reason they showed up so openly is to enhance Tian's resume and get the company's higher-ups to notice him."
It was precisely because he saw this that he cooperated by specifically requesting Prince Long's presence, rather than personally receiving him.
"I see." The cosmic venerable one nodded in realization and exclaimed, "I didn't expect this Primordial Lord to be so nostalgic."
"Yes," Venerable Youmo nodded. "I heard that the Lord of the Primordial Beginning paid a high price for the nine star domains, and even the high-ranking officials of the five major powers were very satisfied."
"As long as you serve the other party well and there are no mistakes during the handover, I bet your contributions will be substantial."
"Such a thing is true." The other cosmic venerables were all taken aback.
They then lost interest in continuing the conversation and nodded, saying, "Understood. I will supervise them closely to ensure that the Primordial Lord's assets are properly allocated."
Soon, the five members of the management team of the Wulong Starfield returned to their posts and supervised the staff at all levels more diligently to ensure the smooth progress of the wreckage collection mission.
On the other side, Chen Yuan paid no attention to the conversation between the several Universe Venerables. Although his purpose was indeed, as the Netherworld Venerable said, to give King Longjue a promotion opportunity, that was all.
After all, the two sides weren't particularly close back then; Chen Yuan had only received some assistance from the other in terms of resources. His appearance this time was simply to repay that favor.
Prince Long was also very perceptive; aside from providing necessary guidance, he did not attempt to establish a relationship with Chen Yuanpan.
Perhaps he himself knew that being able to connect with this Lord of the Universe was already a great fortune, and he was content with that and did not ask for more.
"We've arrived. This is the warehouse where the wreckage is stored."
The Prince of Long said respectfully, "The key to unlock the warehouse has been sent to your virtual universe mailbox."
"Okay, thank you for your help." Chen Yuan nodded slightly, but did not check his email.
He only needed a thought to open the warehouse.
With a rumble, the warehouse doors opened, and countless world rings poured out. There were hundreds of millions of rings just in front of us, not to mention that this was only the tip of the iceberg.
King Longjue had already left without a sound, but Chen Yuan didn't pay any attention. With a thought, the world ring in the warehouse flew towards him and was then stored in the optimization space.
Soon, he had swept all the world rings out of the first warehouse. Then he headed to the other warehouses, and after a short while, all the rings in the second, third, and fourth warehouses had entered the optimization space.
Within Chen Yuan's divine realm, a world ring that blots out the sky floats above the Nine Nether Sea.
The rings were then opened in an orderly fashion, and the endless debris obscured the entire sky of the divine kingdom, yet this was only a small part of what had been opened.
After all, these remnants are measured in light-years, while Chen Yuan's divine kingdom, though vast, is only a few trillion kilometers in diameter, equivalent to 0.3...
Light-year.
Compared to the remaining third of the Wulong Starfield, his divine kingdom was already quite small.
The Netherworld Avatar emerged from the Netherworld Sea, its hands glowing with a milky-white light, and as it continued to activate the light, the area of the light actually expanded.
Originally, this Nether Sea clone was nearly 10,000 kilometers tall, and its palm alone was nearly 1,000 kilometers long.
As the milky white halo expanded, it quickly grew tenfold, forming two milky white spheres with a diameter of 10,000 kilometers in front of the Dark Sea clone. This is the new form unlocked after the 'Primordial Hand' proficiency exceeds 50%, which can control the range of light and can currently expand up to tenfold.
With a thought, the two 'orbs of light' acted like black holes, frantically drawing in the endless debris from the sky.
These debris were drawn together, forming two jet-black dragons tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, which rushed into the two milky-white orbs at an extremely fast speed.
Moreover, given the quality of these remnants, they were almost instantly decomposed into the most primitive energy the moment they came into contact with light.
Most of them became the system's optimization reserves, while the remaining small portion was collected by the Divine Kingdom and injected into the Nine Nether Sea to help him improve the conversion rate of his divine body.
Even though Chen Yuan was absorbing everything he could, it was still incredibly slow compared to the number of debris on the horizon, and there was almost no change in his absorption.
Fortunately, his divine kingdom had been installed inside the Primordial Palace, which could be accelerated ten thousand times over in normal times. One year outside was equivalent to ten thousand years inside!
Even so, it took Chen Yuan ten years to complete the conversion of all the remains.
Of course, the result was good.
Over the years, his Netherworld Avatar had already completed its divine transformation, and his divine kingdom had even collected a substantial amount of energy.
Moreover, the cultivation of the Primordial Hand has made great progress. Not only has it successfully completed the first level of cultivation, but it has even perfected the second level. Currently, it has reached 1.05% of the progress of the third level.
The accumulation of primordial energy has reached a staggering 118 trillion!
Most importantly, this is only one-third of the reserves of the Wulong Starfield.
In other words, a single one-ninth of a garbage star field can produce at least 300 trillion units of primordial energy, and the nine star fields combined can likely reach a terrifying value of 30 quadrillion units!
"It's out!"
Looking at the balance of primal energy on the panel, Chen Yuan had only one thought in his mind.
