"This subordinate (junior) takes his leave!"
Mo led everyone out of the main hall respectfully.
In the empty hall, only Lu Ming remained, sitting high on the throne.
He closed his eyes slightly, feeling the surging power within his body.
"The ninth level of Domain Lord... is just the beginning."
"The system gives you one more sacrifice opportunity each year... What should I sacrifice next time?"
shook his head.
"There's no rush for the next sacrifice; we need to wait another year before we can offer one."
Previously, he had repeatedly attempted to break through to the Domain Lord level, and in order to increase his success rate, he borrowed a considerable amount from the Cosmic Galaxy Bank.
It has a total of 500 billion Qianwu coins.
Previously, this would have been a considerable sum for Lu Ming.
But now.
For him, who had already broken through to the Domain Lord level, this amount of money was nothing.
Chapter 5: Sacrifice the Thunderlight Vine!
"A year is but a blink of an eye for me."
He's lived for over 90,000 years since he transmigrated, so a year is really nothing.
He turned and left the main hall.
He walked towards his own private training room.
Lu Ming decided to focus on his cultivation for the next year, and he was also very curious about the level of his talent.
His ability to become a giant axe warrior demonstrates his undeniable combat prowess among his peers.
Now that he has reached the ninth level of the Domain Lord level, his understanding of laws and so on is probably not top-notch among Domain Lord level beings.
A year is just enough time to make up for any missing insights into the principles.
Upon arriving at the cultivation room, I sat cross-legged and floated in the air.
hum!
In an instant, a crimson domain erupted from his body.
Ninefold Flame Domain!
That's right, Lu Ming possesses a domain; in fact, it's more accurate to say that Lu Ming inevitably possesses a domain.
Moreover, it's a nine-fold realm.
In theory, having a domain and breaking through to the level of a domain lord shouldn't be this difficult.
However, Lu Ming is different. He cannot break through, not only because his life gene lineage is relatively low, making it difficult to break through.
More importantly, there were hidden injuries he suffered in his youth.
He was once a slave; to put it simply, a slave is a tool.
He didn't have many resources during that time fighting in the Giant Axe Arena, plus the constant battles.
This caused him to accumulate a host of hidden injuries, even after he finally reached the ninth level of the universe level and became the patriarch of the Lu family.
It cannot be completely repaired.
Of course, it's not that it can't be repaired. If he were given a fruit of life, those so-called hidden injuries could be easily resolved.
However, he couldn't afford such a rare item.
Fortunately, after the sacrifice, the newborn body was perfect, and all the hidden injuries had long since disappeared.
……
one year later.
A secluded, enclosed room.
boom!
A blade of light wreathed in crimson flames tore through the air and slammed into the metal wall of the secret chamber.
boom!
With a deafening roar, the walls of the secret chamber were ripped apart!
This domineering and unparalleled strike shattered the entire wall!
"The power of the eighth strike of the Nine Blades of the Ember Universe is indeed terrifying!"
Lu Ming's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He was a giant axe warrior who had lived for more than 90,000 years.
He naturally had his own extraordinary encounters, and the Nine Absolute Blades of the Ember Universe was one of them.
The ultimate technique at the realm master level!
Now, he is almost at the end of his cultivation journey.
This single strike, in terms of sheer power, is no less than that of a Realm Lord!
Of course, that's not the point. The point is...
"Hehe, the fundamental laws of fire don't seem so difficult after all."
That's right, after a year of seclusion, Lu Ming has successfully comprehended the fundamental laws of fire!
In fact, he successfully grasped the essence during the first month of his seclusion.
He still underestimated his own talent.
With a hundredfold increase in genes, the affinity for the laws also increased a hundredfold.
He has now gone far beyond simply crossing the threshold of the laws.
His current understanding can be considered as a minor achievement in the Law of Fire.
In Lu Ming's understanding, there are five levels to comprehending the laws in front of the Lord of the Universe in the Swallowed Star World.
Crossing the threshold of the laws, achieving minor success in understanding the laws, becoming proficient, gaining the recognition of the laws, fully mastering a lower-level law, and finally understanding and integrating the laws.
He is now in this second stage.
Once you comprehend the laws, you will be qualified to enter the realm of a world lord.
Of course, this is only a qualification; many conditions are required to break through to the realm master level.
One of them is the understanding of the laws, but Lu Ming has now met almost all the other conditions.
In retrospect, it was wise of him to offer his own body as a sacrifice for the first time.
Although he was originally a genius, there are differences between geniuses.
One sacrifice effectively leveled the gap between him and those top geniuses.
Lu Ming murmured.
“A year has passed; it is time for the second sacrifice.”
He had already decided on the sacrificial offerings over the past year.
As soon as Lu Ming had a thought, the seemingly ancient armor on his body suddenly rippled slightly, and began to wriggle and decompose as if it were alive.
The next moment, the armor completely dissipated, turning into a bunch of deep purple vines about the thickness of an arm, wrapped with fine silver arcs of electricity. As if it had a life of its own, it intimately wrapped around Lu Ming's arm, making a soft "crackling" sound.
Thunderlight Vine!
This is a rather rare type of auxiliary plant life form, known for its speed and powerful lightning attacks, as well as its extremely strong defense.
This Thunderlight Vine was something Lu Ming obtained by chance in a secret cosmic realm many years ago, and it has been with him for tens of thousands of years.
After tens of thousands of years of meticulous cultivation using massive resources, this Thunderlight Vine has long since grown to the ninth level of the cosmic level, equal to his previous level.
It can be said that Lu Ming's current strength, which is renowned in several primary universe kingdoms, owes much to the Thunderlight Vine, which is in tune with his mind and integrates offense and defense.
"Old boy……"
Lu Ming gently stroked the vines, feeling the affection emanating from them, a subtle emotion flashing in his eyes.
But this slight sentiment was quickly replaced by a resolute decision.
"This time, the sacrifice will be for you!"
Without further hesitation, he locked his mind onto the Thunder Vine and issued a command to the system.
"System! Sacrifice my support plant life form—a cosmic-level ninth-tier lightning vine!"
The moment the command was given, the familiar scene reappeared.
That indescribable, gentle yet supreme light enveloped the lightning vines wrapped around Lu Ming's arm.
The Thunder Vine seemed to sense something and trembled slightly, but under Lu Ming's reassuring words, it quickly calmed down and took the initiative to stop resisting.
Amidst the light, the figure of the Thunder Vine began to become illusory, just like Lu Ming's body before, decomposing into the purest primordial energy particles, which were sucked into an invisible vortex and disappeared.
[Ding! Sacrifice successful!]
[Returning funds at a random multiple based on the value of the offerings...]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have received a reward of 3,600 times the normal amount!]
Three thousand six hundred times!
Although it's not the highest multiplier of 10,000, this multiplier is still extremely astonishing!
[Rewards being generated...]
[Congratulations, host! You have obtained: a ninth-tier World Lord-level Lightning Vine!]
The ninth level of world lord level!
Lu Ming's eyes lit up instantly!
As soon as the system finished speaking, the invisible vortex reappeared, but this time it spewed outwards!
