"Although the Flame Path was destroyed, some remnants remain. I can gather them to assist me, so I won't be alone."
The Lord of Lone Fire Island thought of his remaining friends, who, due to the power of the Lord of Nine Absolutes Island, had never dared to gather together before.
Now that they have such favorable conditions, the Lord of Lone Fire Island has not forgotten his former friend. By joining forces, they are able to secure a certain position under the Lord of Chaos City.
After the death of the Nine Absolutes Island Master, the Lone Fire Island Master lost his goal of revenge, but that did not mean he lost his goal of cultivation. He still wanted to advance further.
The Lord of Lone Fire Island and the Lord of Stars both have deep foundations, while only the Fire King has a shallow foundation. However, he was once directly under the Lord of Chaos City, so he will not be looked down upon.
"This is the city lord's test for me." King Fire Blaze felt a lot of pressure. After all, his strength was what it was, and he could only accomplish things by using the banner of the Chaos City Lord.
"These people!"
Lu Yunhe was perfectly aware of the thoughts of the three people present, but he didn't care as long as the result could be achieved.
In a top-down power structure, no matter how much its subordinates jump around, it's just a minor ailment.
Although he has become an invincible being, and is even hailed as the number one person in the Realm Heart Continent, the cultivators of the Realm Heart Continent are still useful to him.
To develop one's power, one can simply send out a clone to maintain the overall direction; the core is still oneself.
Inside the dark prison!
After Lu Yunhe finished refining a suitable island base, he also began to deal with the people on Zhanba Island.
The island lord of Zhanba was caught off guard by his sneak attack and was killed without any ability to fight back.
Faced with such an ultimate being with extremely strong survival abilities, Lu Yunhe had no choice but to suppress it from the start, leaving it no way out.
However, the difference in strength between the two was too great when it came to the subordinates of the island master Zhanba. Lu Yunhe had no ability to resist after just one move, and they were all sealed up and captured alive.
"The real Ultimate Realm!"
Lu Yunhe examined the corpse of the island lord of Zhanba. Even this divine body contained many secrets that he could study carefully.
"There is also a top-tier secret treasure."
As the ultimate realm, Island Master Zhanba naturally possesses a top-tier secret treasure, one that perfectly suits him and is related to the path of power.
To Lu Yunhe's surprise, this top-tier treasure was actually a suit of armor.
Although it belongs to the path of power, it has an extraordinary amplifying effect on the divine body and is highly compatible with Island Master Zhanba.
However, for those at the Ultimate Realm, the effect of a single Peak Treasure is not that strong.
When dealing with those weaker than oneself, there is no need for top-tier secret treasures. When dealing with those stronger than oneself, especially invincible beings, one mainly relies on the life-saving ability of one's realm talent, rather than top-tier secret treasures.
Even invincible beings are difficult to kill in the Ultimate Realm, let alone beings of the same level; special methods are required.
This also means that many ultimate realm cultivators rarely use top-tier secret treasures, relying instead on their power and secret techniques.
Moreover, once a weapon reaches the level of a top-tier treasure, its appearance and functionality are all quite similar.
Since the Ultimate Realm is itself the ultimate and perfect level, it doesn't have any requirements regarding the nature of the Peak Treasure.
Only those cosmic gods below the ultimate realm would concern themselves with the nature or even the function of a pinnacle treasure.
"Finally, I have a genuine top-tier treasure!" Lu Yunhe exclaimed. Upon arriving at the Realm Heart Continent, he skipped the top-tier treasures and directly seized a supreme treasure. Later, he even forged a half-step ultimate divine weapon.
As a result, due to insufficient materials, they were unable to forge a top-tier treasure.
"With this top-tier treasure and the divine body of Island Master Zhanba, I should be able to restore seven or eight layers of his power," Lu Yunhe thought to himself.
For those at the ultimate level, both secret treasures and divine bodies are manifestations of the pinnacle of their own original Dao, containing the complete Dao.
"After some research, I believe my power could also reach the second level of a cosmic god."
The ultimate realm of perfection is difficult, but the second level of the primordial path that integrates the two lineages is not that difficult.
……
Chapter 687 Harvest
"If only there were a group of ultimate-level divine bodies with different origin paths!"
Lu Yunhe sighed inwardly, somewhat understanding why Fan Zu was willing to spend such a high price to purchase the secret techniques of the Void Realm Dao, because they could indeed be impacted.
The Dao of the Origin World is so complete and perfect that it holds a supreme position, which can only be admired from afar and not profaned.
The path of a cultivator, on the other hand, is cultivated step by step from the bottom up, which is most compatible with the cultivator. Both are almost extremes.
However, there is another layer in between, which is the innate primordial life form, born from the primordial space, and naturally imprinted with a part of the original Great Dao.
However, this path is not as perfect as that of the Origin World, but it is stronger than that of cultivators who have acquired their cultivation later in life.
Of course, one must generally reach the ultimate level of the original Dao before being able to participate in the Dao within the primordial life form.
Or it could be the extremely obscure primordial path, which is incomplete even in the realm of primordial beings, yet still highly valuable for reference.
"Unfortunately, it's a top-tier treasure in the realm of power!"
Such a top-tier treasure is meaningless to Lu Yunhe; he can do better with his own secret techniques what the treasure can do.
At the very least, it must be a secret treasure related to the power of supreme rules and the power of primordial chaos to truly enhance his strength.
After he finishes studying it, he can only put it in the warehouse and give it to his subordinates later.
Once he comprehends the corresponding divine body secret technique from the island lord of Zhanba, as long as he can cultivate it to the second level of the Cosmic God, he will be able to unleash most of the power of these peak secret treasures, and he won't even need to reach the second level in terms of power.
Such a cultivator can barely be considered a Venerable Lord level being, only slightly inferior to a true Venerable Lord.
If one is a cultivator specializing in strength and has also practiced Lu Yunhe's Divine Body Secret Technique, they can fully utilize this top-tier secret treasure to its fullest potential, without any significant weaknesses.
This is also the level of a lord of an ancient kingdom, possessing strength equivalent to that of an ultimate realm expert.
If one can master more secret techniques, comprehend more fundamental paths, and combine them with corresponding top-tier secret treasures, one can directly surpass the ultimate realm.
Secret techniques and secret arts can provide a level equivalent to one's cultivation realm, while secret treasures can compensate for power. When the two are combined, there is indeed little difference.
For an invincible being, if they are willing to spend time and effort, they can definitely build up a Lord-level combat power.
The only problem is that no invincible being would have the time or inclination for this.
Even for Lu Yunhe, after cultivating the Void Dao, he could easily create clones, so he didn't actually lack manpower.
However, it's not good for him to handle all the small things personally. He will hire some subordinates to handle miscellaneous tasks, and there are no requirements for their strength, as long as they are not too weak.
Reaching the Venerable Lord level requires time and effort, but helping someone reach the Chaos Realm level 10, comparable to a cosmic god, is much simpler. With a little resource, a divine body secret technique can accomplish it.
Lu Yunhe is poor, but that only means he is poor in terms of bank balance; it doesn't mean he has no money at all.
Later, after acquiring the entire Zhanba Island, we had a surplus of money.
Besides this top-tier treasure, Island Master Zhanba also possesses a collection of ordinary and top-tier cosmic mystical treasures, as well as a large amount of cosmic divine resources.
As a peerless demon lord, even though he spent a lot of resources to build his own Zhanba Island, he still had extremely abundant resources, more than even the ultimate realm of the same level.
Because these kinds of peerless demons possess the technology to transform ordinary cultivators into resources, namely, blood essence.
This stuff is as effective as the essence of primordial chaos, and it can be considered a hard currency for the powerful, even more precious than cosmic crystals.
It's hard to say openly, but whether there are any transactions between some cultivators who aren't demons, or those who haven't mastered the corresponding techniques...
After all, the Hunyuan Essence is too difficult to obtain and too dangerous, unlike the Blood Spirit Essence, whose materials are all from ordinary cultivators.
It was only because he possessed sufficient ability to create wealth that the Lord of Zhanba Island was able to gather a group of demons.
Even Lu Yunhe couldn't help but frown when he saw the blood essence on Island Master Zhanba's body.
It can be said that apart from the top-tier secret treasures and the island-protecting formation, the most valuable thing on Island Master Zhanba is this pool of blood spirit essence.
In terms of sheer quantity, the number of cultivators directly or indirectly sacrificed by the Lord of Zhanba Island for these Blood Spirit Essences is astronomical.
The so-called islands and towns on the Continent of Realm Heart are actually vast worlds, teeming with countless forms of life.
Sacrificing a city or island is essentially equivalent to sacrificing an entire world, not even counting the lives within a cultivator's small world.
"These things shouldn't be circulated!" Lu Yunhe shook his head.
A powerful cultivator is both a consumer and a producer.
However, in many cases, their own production is only enough to barely sustain their own cultivation, and they don't have much surplus.
Besides the island lord himself, his demon subordinates also possessed some blood spirit essence.
If we disregard the actions of the demons, they can act with impunity, accumulate wealth rapidly, and acquire valuable cultivation resources.
If the monopoly on secret techniques and treasures were loosened even slightly, it would indeed be very attractive.
Even though being a demon is dangerous, there are still people willing to join one after another, just wanting to take a chance, since they've had enough of living anyway.
"What's the point of being ruthless to others? Being ruthless to yourself is the real devil."
Compared to these people, Lu Yunhe's understanding of the demon was that one cannot live without being obsessed with the demon.
Create hope in desperate situations, and make possible from the impossible.
To achieve miracles by any means necessary is the true demon of life.
Being able to research Blood Spirit Essence, comparable to the essence of Hunyuan, certainly earned him respect, but he later became bound by his identity as a demon and fell into meaningless killing.
Lu Yunhe picked through the treasures on the bodies of Island Master Zhanba and his subordinates. He could throw the useful items into the Chaos City. He still had a few supreme treasures to refine and needed some materials.
The group of people, including the island lord of Zhanba, were enough to gather most of his forces. After all, they were equivalent to top-tier second-rate forces, possessing core productivity and abundant resources, second only to the invincible ancient kingdoms.
Looking at the mountain of treasures and resources, Lu Yunhe nodded in satisfaction.
Lu Yunhe didn't waste the remaining demons on Zhanba Island; he planned to use them for experiments.
He was actually quite interested in Blood Spirit Essence, a product derived from the ultimate essence of the soul, which was very tempting for cultivators who sought the path of the biological soul.
If the lineage of the soul wants to achieve great success, or even perfection, it is impossible not to study the soul.
These demons on Zhanba Island are all quite powerful and make excellent research material.
Especially those cosmic gods, whose souls are in harmony with the universe, have seen their research value advance by leaps and bounds.
Whether studying the soul, or the connection between life, the primordial Tao, or even the universe, the Cosmic God is the best source material.
If this were on the Origin Continent, Lu Yunhe wouldn't be able to act so recklessly, but on the Realm Heart Continent, he wouldn't have such reservations.
Why are some cosmic gods' demonic figures disappearing without a trace? Is there a problem?
At this moment, the demons imprisoned in the City of Chaos suddenly began to tremble.
