Han Jue's inner world now stretched over one hundred million kilometers in diameter, a vast expanse that dwarfed what most World Masters could ever hope to achieve.
The Star Stream Sea clone materialized within his inner world, its massive form replacing the original ocean. As it settled into place, the transformation began.
"Star Sea," Han Jue murmured, watching intently.
The clone unleashed its innate talent, the Star Sea technique. Like a ravenous beast awakening from slumber, it began devouring the resources Han Jue had meticulously prepared: mountains of universe crystals, body-refining treasures that could tempt even Immortal Kings, materials attuned to the water origin law, and genetic essence from countless special lifeforms.
Everything that could be consumed, digested, and absorbed by the Star Stream Sea, Han Jue had gathered here.
The clone devoured greedily, using every morsel to enhance itself. Its life gene level crept upward with each passing moment, its body size gradually expanding. But the most dramatic change occurred in the inner world itself.
Devour!
Within the Star Stream Sea, an ocean of water that rippled with primordial power, cosmic crystal mountains materialized from thin air. One mountain began to dissolve, partially melting as vast amounts of world power spread outward, merging into the inner world's fabric.
The boundless energy flooded into his inner world like water rushing into a dried riverbed. The space drank it in desperately, hungrily.
Rumble...
Rumble...
The heavens and earth trembled!
His inner world expanded relentlessly outward, pushing against the boundaries of what should be possible. Han Jue's consciousness remained fixed on the spectacle, wondering how far this transformation could go.
In the original timeline, Luo Feng's inner world had eventually reached a diameter of one trillion kilometers, an achievement that defied comprehension. Whether Han Jue could match that legendary accomplishment depended entirely on this moment.
His eyes burned with fervor as he watched his inner world transform.
Ten billion kilometers. Twenty billion. Fifty billion.
The expansion seemed limitless, as though the laws of reality themselves bent to accommodate his ambition.
Time passed without meaning in this space between moments.
Han Jue's inner world had grown to a truly terrifying extent.
"999.8 billion kilometers! 999.9 billion kilometers! Just a little more!"
His inner world was approaching its absolute limit. That final hundred million kilometers felt like the most distant stretch in the universe, so close, yet impossibly far.
Han Jue gritted his teeth. His Star Stream Sea clone had reached a life gene level nearly four thousand times that of baseline humanity, yet still it wasn't enough.
Devour! Enhance!
Rumble~~
Finally!
His inner world took that last, crucial step, barely reaching a diameter of one trillion kilometers!
The difficulty had been far greater than Luo Feng's achievement, but then again, Luo Feng was the protagonist of fate itself, someone ordinary cultivators couldn't compare to. He possessed countless fortuitous encounters and advantages that even Han Jue, with all his preparations, perhaps couldn't match.
Still, the enhancement of the inner world had little to do with law comprehension. What mattered most was whether his devouring talent could be utilized to its fullest potential.
Now came the most crucial step.
Breaking the World Core. Breaking through to Immortality.
Though Han Jue's inner world had barely caught up with Luo Feng's size, his World Core, under the influence of the Star Sea talent, was far more solid than Luo Feng's had ever been.
In the original timeline, Luo Feng had created an ultimate Universe Overlord-level secret technique to successfully shatter his World Core and break through to Immortality.
Han Jue would likely need a peak Universe Venerable-level technique to accomplish the same feat.
This was precisely why he'd dedicated himself to comprehending all eight lower-level origin laws.
"I wonder if the rudimentary form of my Universe Master peak secret technique will be enough to break through the World Core's shackles and reach Immortality?" Han Jue muttered to himself.
Laws form. Origin forms. World Core breaks. Divine power infuses. Soul and body unite to enter Immortality.
This was the fundamental process every World Master faced when attempting to break through.
Within the World Core existed a self-contained space, a prison of one's own making.
The Origin Pearl within Han Jue's World Core transformed, taking on his likeness. In this manifestation's hand, strands of energy coalesced into the form of a longsword.
The Five Evolutions Wild Sword.
These energies contained all eight lower-level origin laws, making it trivial to simulate even a High-tier Arcana weapon.
Next,
"Five Evolutions Sword Qi!"
Han Jue's will was firm, merging seamlessly with his consciousness.
The strength of his will had long surpassed that of ordinary Universe Venerables. His consciousness had reached Universe Venerable level. Even his soul power, the most difficult attribute to improve beyond one's cultivation level, had now reached the Universe Venerable realm!
Apart from some shortcomings in his comprehension of spatial laws and the lack of a corresponding divine body, in terms of secret techniques, treasures, and many other aspects, Han Jue was a genuine Universe Venerable. He even surpassed some weaker Universe Venerables!
"Break!"
Han Jue's soul roared!
Within his World Core, the manifestation formed from the Origin Pearl wielded the Five Evolutions Wild Sword, unleashing Five Evolutions Sword Qi to shatter the World Core's shackles!
The World Core was incredibly hard, far harder than any material in the mortal world.
This attack, powerful enough to annihilate a Universe Venerable, merely left a crack in the World Core's surface. But even that single crack gave Han Jue hope of success!
It seemed he wouldn't need to remain at the World Master level for tens of thousands of years like Luo Feng had.
The manifestation within the World Core unleashed an astonishing will, transforming into a sharp blade that attacked relentlessly along the crack, widening it with each strike!
"BOOM!!!"
The entire inner wall of the World Core trembled violently. Then, with a thunderous bang, it shattered into dust.
The World Core is broken!
The instant that barrier was removed, the manifestation formed from the Origin Pearl connected with the endless ocean of laws in the Origin of the universe itself.
Water, fire, light, thunder, wind, earth, metal, wood...
The eight lower-level origin laws descended simultaneously upon the sky above Han Jue's dwelling!
"RUMBLE~~~~"
Endless divine power surged wildly into Han Jue's body, transforming his mortal flesh into something eternal.
"Hmm? What's this?"
Han Jue suddenly froze.
Before his eyes, intricate structures appeared, the genetic patterns of life itself!
These were the genetic structures of beings living within the Origin Universe!
Breaking through to Immortality had triggered a new evolution in his Six Eyes, even before the divine power conversion was complete.
Han Jue temporarily ignored his body, which was still transforming and absorbing divine power. Instead, he began studying the new talent technique brought by the Six Eyes.
After a long while, he let out an amazed sigh.
Han Jue named this talent technique Evolution.
Evolution, the name said it all. It was transformation and advancement at the level of life genes themselves!
With this talent, Han Jue could directly analyze the genes of any lifeform through the Six Eyes, then evolve, improve, and transform his own genetic level accordingly. Even without suitable subjects to analyze, he could achieve genetic transformation by continuously optimizing himself!
This talent was even more heaven-defying than the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual. It absolutely violated the operating rules of the Origin Universe itself.
And that meant...
Han Jue's desire to achieve a perfect divine body could be fully realized through this innate technique!
The World Beast would be the best subject for analysis.
And right now...
Han Jue took a deep breath.
Though he'd reached the Immortal Realm and the Six Eyes hadn't yet undergone a complete transformation at the genetic level, within Han Jue's inner world existed one perfect subject for analysis:
The Star Stream Sea clone itself!
