Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Three days later, in the early morning.

Lin Ye woke up from his cultivation, feeling better than ever before.

The first thing he did upon emerging was to dedicate a wisp of consciousness to connect to the virtual universe network.

With such a major matter at hand, Lin Ye didn't delay for even a moment.

He even personally sent a message to his master, Venerable Fenchen, and arranged to meet on Thunder Island.

...

Virtual universe, the highest level of Thunder Island.

In the palace belonging to Venerable Fenchen, Lin Ye sat opposite his master, chatting and laughing.

Without any concealment, Lin Ye directly shared the cultivation method of the Hunyuan Secret Canon in its entirety, detailing everything without omission to his master, Venerable Fenchen.

"..."

"This... how is this possible?!"

"This is absolutely impossible!!!"

"How could there be a secret method that allows genes to evolve... Doesn't this violate the operation of the universe's laws?!"

Having been exposed to such an advanced secret method for the first time, even Venerable Fenchen was overwhelmed with shock, muttering to himself.

Horror!

Shock!

"A secret method capable of transcending the laws of the universe, this might be a peerless secret method left behind by one of the strongest beings!!"

"Xiao Yezi, where did you find this secret method?!" Overwhelmed with shock, Venerable Fenchen began to inquire.

"On Earth!" Lin Ye answered truthfully.

"Earth! Earth!"

Venerable Fenchen repeatedly savored the name, his eyes growing brighter.

Not long ago.

He, along with Qianwu, Jiujian, and Diyu, became curious about Earth and jointly initiated a reversal of time and space, wanting to investigate.

However, what the four powerful Venerables didn't expect was that.

What awaited them.

Was a terrible failure!

In the end, they had no choice but to request the help of the Chaos City Lord.

And after the Chaos City Lord intervened at the time, he didn't seem to find out anything significant.

He was merely curious about the origin of this planet and instructed the four, Fenchen, to keep it a secret at all costs.

The four Venerables kept the Chaos City Lord's words firmly in mind.

Strictly following orders.

Now, Lin Ye had actually discovered such a heaven-defying secret method on Earth.

Wouldn't that send shivers down Venerable Fenchen's spine?

"Good disciple, I am very pleased that you have gifted this secret method to your teacher, but you must remember not to reveal this secret method... otherwise, it is likely to attract the covetousness of others and suffer unwarranted disasters."

"Be sure to remember this secret, and do not spread it to anyone other than your teacher!"

"Not all peak existences have a mindset like your teacher."

"Can't even the Chaos City Lord be told?" Lin Ye asked in reply.

"The City Lord has devoted himself to the human race and is certainly trustworthy, but as for the other Universe Lords... remember to be careful!!"

Venerable Fenchen repeatedly instructed Lin Ye many times, still feeling very uneasy.

The reason was simple.

As one of the true high-level figures of the human race, Venerable Fenchen's knowledge far surpassed Lin Ye's.

This secret method, which could evolve the body through cultivation, was a heaven-defying existence.

If it were accidentally leaked, many Universe Lords might disregard their reputation and take action.

In the face of being able to continue to become stronger, those Universe Lords might not act with any morality.

"Understood, disciple will keep it in mind!!"

Lin Ye respectfully replied, actually understanding the little thoughts of those high-level human race figures in his heart.

After the Earth's secrets were exposed in the original story, the faces displayed by most Universe Lords even made the Chaos City Lord retreat a little.

It wasn't until Luo Feng became the Galaxy Lord that he completely reclaimed the ownership of Earth.

Even Lin Ye didn't want to delve into the experiences in between.

For no other reason than he was too weak now, and had no say in front of the high-level human race figures.

So, the only one Lin Ye could rely on now was his master, Venerable Fenchen.

This was a matter of shared glory.

Having received the Hunyuan Secret Canon as dictated by Lin Ye, Venerable Fenchen, clad in a fiery red battle robe, stood in place.

He closed his eyes, seemingly deducing something.

Lin Ye stood aside, quietly waiting.

About an hour passed.

Venerable Fenchen slowly opened his eyes, deeply exhaling a breath.

"Xiao Yezi, you've really helped me a lot this time!"

"Master has given me so much support and help, this is all I should do."

"If it weren't for Master, I, Lin Ye, would definitely not have my current achievements."

"And..."

Lin Ye spoke his most honest thoughts from the bottom of his heart to Venerable Fenchen one by one.

This was his most powerful and only reliance.

"Good! Very good!!"

"Worthy of being my, Fenchen's, only disciple! You have brought me a great surprise this time!!"

For the first time, Venerable Fenchen's face, which had been calm for countless years, showed such an excited expression.

He stared at Lin Ye and said excitedly, word by word:

"Good disciple, with this secret method of yours, and with my accumulation, I can even try to break through to become a Universe Lord, just wait for my good news!"

"Even if I don't break through to become a Universe Lord, my strength will undergo earth-shattering changes compared to before!"

"Good disciple, do you know why?"

In his excitement, Venerable Fenchen posed a question to Lin Ye.

"I know." Meeting Venerable Fenchen's gaze, Lin Ye looked over and slowly uttered a few words: "Because this secret method will bring about the evolution of genes!"

"And the change of genes is closely related to strength!!"

"Smart! So I am now preparing to enter secluded cultivation!!"

"I hope that the next time we meet, there will be a Venerable Fenchen Lord standing before you!!"

"I wish Master all the best!!"

Lin Ye's face was also full of excitement.

"Thank you, my good disciple!!"

After saying these words, Venerable Fenchen directly disappeared into the virtual universe.

Obviously, he couldn't wait to start cultivating.

...

Then, Lin Ye didn't just exit the virtual universe.

He contacted Luo Feng and provided him with the cultivation information about the 'Hunyuan Secret Canon' in advance, to help him grow up sooner.

After all, City Lord Luo was Lin Ye's Plan B.

Better safe than sorry!

...

After doing all this.

Lin Ye solemnly instructed City Lord Luo again before exiting the virtual universe network.

Next, he had even more important things to accomplish—

Cultivating the first level of the Hunyuan Secret Canon!!

Inside the cultivation chamber, Lin Ye's breathing and heartbeat gradually stabilized, quickly entering a state of peace and clarity.

At this moment, his five senses were completely isolated from the outside world, and all his consciousness and attention were focused on comprehending these secrets.

The fleeting figure from some time ago had given him a direction to walk.

As long as he followed the direction it pointed, he could reach the other shore.

At this time, a vigorous voice suddenly sounded in Lin Ye's mind—

"Young man, are you really sure you want to comprehend this Hunyuan Secret Canon?!"

This voice didn't appear beside his ear, but directly resounded in Lin Ye's heart.

"Yes! I crave power! Powerful power that can surpass everything!" Lin Ye said firmly, without the slightest hesitation.

"Very good awareness!" the middle-aged voice exclaimed, "This is probably the awareness imprinted in the depths of your soul, you are direct enough!"

"You are qualified to cultivate this Hunyuan Secret Canon!!"

As the voice fell.

Lin Ye only felt that many insights had appeared out of thin air in his mind, and the scattered insights connected into a piece, bursting out with unexpected effects.

Soon, he had completely absorbed the first level of the Hunyuan Secret Canon.

This was a secret technique even more powerful than the Hunyuan Secret Canon, a powerful secret method that combined laws, combat, body refining... into one.

Even aspects that Lin Ye had never even heard of were implied within it.

"The first level of the Hunyuan Secret Canon is suitable for powerhouses below the True God level to cultivate?!"

From the information he obtained, Lin Ye learned about this aspect and was immediately shocked.

This also meant that if he wanted to cultivate the second level of the Hunyuan Secret Canon, he would have to become an existence like the strongest in the universe at the very least.

"Compared to the Hunyuan Secret Canon, the Universe Chaos Stele is simply the weakest of the weak!"

Lin Ye thought to himself, and then began to cultivate.

The Hunyuan Secret Canon has a total of twelve revolutions!

Failure in cultivating each revolution has no impact on the main body or soul, it's just starting over.

Compared to the death and soul destruction of the ordinary Hunyuan Secret Canon, it was undoubtedly much better.

...

Inside the cultivation chamber.

Lin Ye sat cross-legged.

The empty room had nothing else, only a row of the most ordinary green plants.

At this moment, they were all striving to grow in the direction of the sunlight.

Lin Ye quietly looked at these green plants, his mind was extremely calm.

Wasn't he just like these plants, also desperately striving to constantly become stronger and for the leap in the level of life?

Now that he had the first revolution of the Hunyuan Secret Canon, he could also truly embark on the path of using secret methods to promote the evolution of his body's genes.

When cultivating the Hunyuan Secret Canon, Lin Ye directly activated his Origin Power and Mental Power.

He constantly integrated the two into the cells throughout his body, and then realized gene evolution as described by the secret method.

Under the maintenance of the secret method's peculiar power, the Mental Power, Origin Power, and body were in a balance as if they were one.

"Huff~ Breath~ Huff~ Breath~"

Lin Ye deeply inhaled and exhaled, each time bringing up gusts of wind that slammed fiercely against the surrounding cultivation chamber.

When he closed his eyes, the cultivation words about the Hunyuan Secret Canon immediately appeared in his mind, autonomously prompting his body to cultivate.

"Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Streams of crystal-clear energy light burst out from the sea of consciousness and the singularity in his dantian, and then quickly merged into Lin Ye's body.

At this moment, Lin Ye seemed to feel his entire body's spiritual power, genetic Origin Power, and body being tightly bound together.

A brand new energy then emerged, following the path of these energy light streams, and began to circulate continuously in Lin Ye's body.

Harmonious and perfect!

At this moment, Lin Ye suddenly felt as if the inside of his body had become a world.

Under the operation of the world, it was also promoting the slow evolution of the body's genes.

Each time the genes evolved.

Was a huge improvement in the body's strength!

"Good! What a powerful secret method! It really deserves to be a super secret canon that directly points to Hunyuan!!"

Lin Ye couldn't help but close his eyes, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.

Just running it for one cycle.

He felt that his body's genes had undergone no small change.

The perfect internal circulation allowed it to continuously promote genes, realizing cyclical evolution.

To put it bluntly.

With Lin Ye's current strength, every bit of his gene's evolution would cause earth-shattering changes throughout his body.

At this moment, he once again believed that cultivating according to the Hunyuan Secret Canon would definitely lead to even more terrifying things happening.

Surprise!

A terrifying surprise!

It was as if he had encountered the best thing in the world.

...

Time passed little by little.

Lin Ye had completely immersed himself in this perfect cycle of world operation.

Gene evolution, at the same time, drove the continuous improvement of strength... over and over again.

Almost every second, he was changing.

One day, two days... in the blink of an eye, twenty-five days had passed.

Lin Ye was gradually getting better and better, enjoying the wonderful feeling brought about by this change.

"I don't know which powerful existence created this secret method, or whether it was 'Hunyuan' who created the 'Hunyuan Secret Canon', allowing my genes to constantly evolve without even the slightest danger."

"However... I feel that my inner world can continue to be improved."

After cultivating the Hunyuan Secret Canon for a period of time, Lin Ye suddenly discovered that the inner world he had just constructed still had a very large space for improvement.

Now, it was just a simple outline.

Opposite Lin Ye.

The Thousand Shadow Clone was also sitting cross-legged on the floor, standing still like a stone statue.

Unlike the Earthling body, he didn't have spiritual power, that is, he didn't have defects in the soul.

Therefore, Lin Ye had a whim.

He combined the Origin Power, Law Power, and body of the Thousand Shadow Clone to form a world of his own.

The result was unexpectedly good.

Almost every moment, he could feel the improvement of his own strength.

Therefore.

Lin Ye seized the time to make the Thousand Shadow Clone cultivate even harder.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Two and a half years had passed.

Inside the cultivation chamber.

Lin Ye and the Thousand Shadow Clone opened their eyes almost at the same time, a hint of joy flashing in their eyes.

Although it was only cultivating a small part of the first revolution of the Hunyuan Secret Canon, he still benefited a lot.

The body's strength had increased by two or three times.

Similarly.

The strength had increased by more than five or six times compared to before.

...

"Swish!"

Lin Ye stood up and opened the door to the secret chamber.

Outside the door, Chan'er and Huorong were guarding here, never leaving for a moment.

At this moment, after seeing their young master come out.

Both of them had shocked expressions.

The reason was simple.

Lin Ye, who had been in secluded cultivation for a year, was several times stronger than before he went into seclusion.

Moreover, the entire person's temperament had undergone tremendous changes from top to bottom.

"Young master, you've become stronger!" Huorong's pair of sly eyes glanced at Lin Ye, and finally came to a conclusion: "Also become more powerful!!"

"If you've been in seclusion for so long and there's still no progress, then it's a waste of seclusion."

Lin Ye smiled and nodded, a peaceful expression on his face.

Beside him, Chan'er quietly studied Lin Ye, noticing the changes in him.

However, this change seemed to originate from the depths of Lin Ye's soul.

Even with her sharp eyes, she couldn't discern the reason.

But she could roughly guess that Lin Ye's transformation was closely related to that mysterious black metal plate.

But all of this... was Lin Ye's good fortune.

In the end, Chan'er simply regarded it as his own lucky encounter.
