At this moment, Luo Fan's emotions were incomparably stirred.
He knew very well that when he gave up the Nine Tribulations Codex and handed it over to Luo Feng, although he had prepared himself and made up his mind, his heart was still aching badly.
That was the Nine Tribulations Codex!
Anyone who knew what the Nine Tribulations Codex did would feel heartache over it.
But now, this Chaos Codex brought Luo Fan an enormous surprise.
It could only be said that losing in one place and gaining in another.
After learning the function of the Chaos Codex, Luo Fan no longer dared to take it out casually.
The Space Worm clone directly transformed into the appearance of the main body and left the World Ring.
In the next instant, a wormhole appeared in front of Luo Fan.
He stepped into it.
On the other side of the wormhole was a stretch of starry space.
He took out a spacecraft and began accelerating into the Dark Universe.
After that, the Space Worm clone used wormholes several times.
Luo Fan arrived directly at a desolate, lifeless region near the edge of the universe.
There were no celestial bodies here.
There was not even any space debris.
Only utter silence remained.
Luo Fan still felt that this was not safe enough.
Next, he directly entered the spatial interlayer.
After the Space Worm clone entered the spatial interlayer, it was like a dragon entering the sea.
After reaching a location without spatial fragments, he took out the Chaos Codex.
In the next instant, Luo Fan immediately felt a sense of being watched.
This feeling was extremely familiar to him.
He had even experienced it not long ago.
It was the descent of the Original Universe's consciousness!
However, at this moment.
A chaotic-colored ray of light shot out from the codex in Luo Fan's hand.
In the next instant, that sense of being watched disappeared.
Seeing this, Luo Fan's face was filled with joy.
System, absolutely incredible!
It could only be said that the system truly lived up to its name.
He briefly looked over the Chaos Codex in his hand.
This Chaos Codex was incomplete, containing only the first two layers.
The function of the Chaos Codex was very simple, only one thing.
That was to increase genetic level!
Yes, its effect was the same as the Nine Tribulations Codex!
However, each layer of the Chaos Codex could only raise genetic level to twice the original.
But the Chaos Codex had one advantage over the Nine Tribulations Codex.
That was, the Chaos Codex worked for all lifeforms!
Unlike the Nine Tribulations Codex, which was limited to flesh-and-blood lifeforms.
Of course, the limit was still 10,081 times genes.
Even so, that was more than enough for Luo Fan.
The complete Chaos Codex had a total of ten layers.
What Luo Fan currently possessed were only the first two layers.
He guessed that to obtain the later layers, he would need to acquire fragments of the Heavenly Soul Crystal.
Thinking of this, Luo Fan could not help but feel a headache coming on.
Where were the remaining parts of the Nine Tribulations Codex?
The Heavenly Soul Crystal that recorded the Nine Tribulations Codex had been split into five parts by Sitting Mountain Guest.
The first part was on Earth.
That was the black metal plate discovered by Luo Fan's great-granddaughter.
The second fragment of the Heavenly Soul Crystal, in the original story, was in the hands of a youth from the Na Shi Race.
Luo Fan did not even know whether Luo Feng would be able to encounter him again.
After all, with Luo Fan's arrival in this world and the butterfly effect that followed, it would be quite difficult for the two to meet again.
However, Sitting Mountain Guest should handle this.
The third Heavenly Soul Crystal fragment was inside Ice Prison Star of the Wu Hua Secret Realm.
Two special lifeforms of the Ancestral God Religion lived there.
Their strength seemed to be at the Universe Overlord level.
As for the fourth fragment, it was located on Artisan God Star.
That was where the Lord of Artisan God resided.
How was Luo Fan supposed to find that?
The fifth fragment was inside the treasure vault of Blood Cloud Hall.
Where was Blood Cloud Hall now?
It was in the hands of Sitting Mountain Guest, a certain reincarnated God King who was now the strongest being in the universe.
Thinking of this, Luo Fan suddenly felt like crying without tears.
No, how was he supposed to find these?
At this thought, Luo Fan fell silent.
Forget it. Having two layers was already pretty good.
At the very least, he could raise the genetic levels of the Earthling main body and the Mechanical Race clone to four hundred times.
Moreover, the main body could also break the universal limit.
Combined with Blood Luo Crystal, the main body's genetic level would not be low either.
It might even be higher than that of the Space Worm clone!
That was because the main body's physical size was too small.
As long as it fused with one hundred drops of Beast God Blood, it could activate the complete Blood Luo Power.
At that time, it was very likely to rise to nearly ten thousand times!
The Space Worm clone's body was simply too large.
Even in the original story, after Luo Feng's Golden-Horned Beast main body fused with large amounts of Blood Luo Crystal, the Blood Luo Power it activated only increased his genes by a few times.
That was because the Golden-Horned Beast's body was too large.
Luo Feng fused hundreds or even thousands of Blood Luo Crystals and Beast God Blood.
For the Space Worm, the Blood Luo Power it could activate would only be even less.
But the main body could activate the complete Blood Luo Power.
This further strengthened Luo Fan's belief that Blood Luo Crystal was very likely artificially created.
After all, Blood Luo Crystal was most suitable for use by flesh-and-blood lifeforms of human size.
When activated, it could take effect perfectly.
Luo Fan eagerly began to carefully study the contents of the Chaos Codex.
Previously, he had only given it a cursory glance.
Although there were only the first two layers,
the contents alone exceeded one million characters.
The Chaos Codex was far more complex than the Nine Tribulations Codex.
Although fully cultivating all ten layers of the Chaos Codex could raise one's genes by 1,024 times,
and any lifeform could cultivate it,
the difficulty of cultivating the Chaos Codex was also very high.
It was not exactly that the cultivation difficulty was high.
The cultivation method of the Chaos Codex was very simple, which was to cultivate using Origin Laws.
By gaining the acknowledgment of one Origin Law, one could cultivate one layer of the Chaos Codex.
As long as one obtained law acknowledgment, cultivation became very simple.
The principle of the Chaos Codex was to use a special method to condense a law seed within every smallest particle of one's body.
Therefore, only after gaining law acknowledgment would one have sufficient law comprehension to condense a law seed.
With the comprehension granted by law acknowledgment, condensing seeds was extremely easy.
Such law seeds could be condensed within the soul or within the physical body.
That was why any lifeform could cultivate the Chaos Codex.
After reading through it once in his mind, Luo Fan directly had a clone attempt cultivation.
When the clone began condensing, it directly reverted to the form of a Space Worm.
Because the clone's body was also extremely large, Luo Fan spent a full three days before condensing a Water Origin Law seed within every particle of the clone.
At the moment the final batch of particles completed their law seed condensation,
Luo Fan discovered that an extreme sensation of comfort surged through the clone's body.
This sensation was even more pleasurable than every realm breakthrough he had experienced.
This was the feeling of biological evolution!
Only when he had consumed Life Origin Fruit and Life Origin Spirit Fruit in the past had he experienced such a feeling!
Very quickly, this sensation faded.
The clone tested itself.
Sure enough, this clone's strength was now twice what it had been before!
Luo Fan's eyes instantly burned with fervor.
He now wanted nothing more than to quickly raise both clones to World Master peak.
Although the energy inside the Water Spirit Pearl was sufficient to raise both clones,
and the speed was extremely fast, capable of increasing efficiency by ten thousand times,
normally speaking, not counting conversion time,
for the Space Worm clone to go from First-Stage World Master to World Master peak would take several hundred thousand years.
But if absorption and conversion time were included, it would take much longer.
It might require several million or even tens of millions of years.
After all, the Space Worm clone's body was too large.
But now, with the Water Spirit Pearl directly providing ownerless energy,
it only needed to absorb it into the body.
With the added ten-thousandfold acceleration, it would still take around several decades.
Thinking about it this way, it still felt a bit long.
The Mechanical Race clone would be much faster.
It might only need one or two years using the Water Spirit Pearl.
That was already extremely fast.
If it were the main body, using the Water Spirit Pearl to go from First-Stage World Master to World Master peak might not even take a month.
After all, the main body was small.
Thinking of this, Luo Fan felt that directly letting the main body break through to World Master was not impossible.
After all, what was currently following Slake was just a clone.
When he returned to Chaos City, he would directly break through to World Master anyway.
Breaking through earlier did not really matter.
Luo Fan planned to directly break through after raising the main body to Domain Lord peak.
With the help of the Water Spirit Pearl, this speed would be extremely fast.
He had not expected that the first to reach World Master peak would actually be his own main body.
If he cultivated the Chaos Codex now, it might double this time.
Doubling the time for the main body and the Mechanical Race clone did not seem like much of an issue.
After making up his mind, Luo Fan prepared to let the main body and the Mechanical Race clone first cultivate the first layer of the Chaos Codex.
Of course, before that, he would definitely try to establish a task.
[Task: The Mechanical Race clone and the main body successfully cultivate the first layer of the Chaos Codex. Reward: Intermediate Divine Power Path Talent +200]
Seeing this, Luo Fan was momentarily stunned.
This reward was quite good.
He just had not expected that this time the reward would actually be Intermediate Divine Power Path Talent.
He had obtained quite a few talent rewards like this in the past.
He had also already experienced the benefits of these talents.
With basic talents, his cultivation efficiency could be increased by several times.
Intermediate talents were different.
He could clearly feel that when his Water Law Talent and Space Law Talent reached the intermediate level, compared to when he had no such talents, his comprehension efficiency was at least ten times stronger!
He just did not know how large the improvement would be once he had many talent points.
Basic talent points only increased things by less than one percent per point.
The improvement from intermediate talent points should be quite significant.
However, at present, his intermediate Water Law and Space Law talents had no talent points, so he could not test it.
As for Divine Power Path Talent, he had not even stepped onto the divine power path yet.
Very quickly, the Mechanical Race clone finished condensing the law seeds.
It took only one hour to complete.
The main body was even faster.
It took only a few minutes to condense successfully.
After all, the main body's physical size was extremely small.
At this moment, the genetic levels of both the main body and the Mechanical Race clone had reached two hundred times!
It was just a bit of a pity.
The Space Worm clone would still need to wait until it reached World Lord peak before beginning enhancement.
After all, the Space Worm clone's body was simply too large.
At this moment, Luo Fan suddenly thought of something.
It seemed that it might not be impossible to further shorten the time needed for energy absorption?
