Very quickly, Luo Fan's original body and his three clones all successfully broke through to the Universe Master level.
This included the Original Universe clone as well.
The original body, the Space Worm clone, and the Mechanical Race clone had all converted their divine power into Universe Master divine power.
Because the Mechanical Race clone and the Space Worm clone broke through within the Original Universe, the Original Universe generously completed the full transformation of their divine power.
It could only be said that the Original Universe was still quite fond of Luo Fan.
After the breakthrough, the Space Worm clone did not leave. Instead, it first replaced all clones within the Original Universe with ones at the Universe Master level.
Then, it went to the Universe Sea and replaced all clones there with Universe Master-level ones as well.
At this moment, Luo Fan was terrifyingly powerful.
Each of his clones could now exert fourth-order strength.
As for the original body and the clones, under the effect of enhancement secret techniques, they could unleash a terrifying sixth-order strength!
Unfortunately, being able to unleash sixth-order strength was not enough.
He needed to create seventh-order secret techniques to pass the fourth stage.
At present, he had only created one fourth-order Universe Master pinnacle secret technique.
He felt it was time to create some powerful secret techniques.
Previously, Luo Fan's main focus had been on comprehending laws and refining treasures.
However, he would not be breaking through to the strongest being in the universe anytime soon.
So, his comprehension of laws could be temporarily paused.
What he needed most now was to create secret techniques and comprehend gene diagrams.
As for refining treasures, he could leave that to his clones.
Because Luo Fan now had extensive experience in refining treasures, his clones could already refine all types of ordinary treasures.
If the Original Universe clone were not currently comprehending gene diagrams and the "Creation Template," it would only take a short time for it to refine high-level treasures.
However, passing the trials was more important for now.
After replacing all one million clones with Universe Master-level ones, the Space Worm clone returned to the Original Universe clone's body and entered the Time God Palace.
However, Luo Fan discovered something.
The divine power required to use the Time God Palace was now a hundred times greater than before!
This consumption was terrifying.
Even the Original Universe clone could not withstand such consumption.
The Original Universe clone's body size was currently quite small.
From Luo Fan's estimation, its limit could even reach a diameter of ten billion light-years!
However, after such a long period of absorption and conversion, its diameter had only reached just over two hundred million light-years.
That was even with the assistance of the Chaos Spirit Pearl.
Therefore, Luo Fan decided to let the two clones maintain a time flow of one million times for now.
This speed was sufficient.
As for the consumption, the Original Universe clone could handle it.
However, there was still one more thing Luo Fan needed to do.
That was to claim his comprehension rewards!
His accumulated comprehension rewards, combined with the reward from breaking through to Universe Master, would directly raise his comprehension to the trillion level!
Those previous doubling rewards could only double the comprehension at the time the task was completed.
So Luo Fan could not stack those four hundred billion comprehension rewards with the previous doubling rewards.
Even so, after claiming these rewards, his comprehension would still directly surpass one trillion!
In other words, after claiming all rewards, Luo Fan could immediately obtain two enlightenment states!
And they were enlightenment states triggered by breaking through one hundred billion and one trillion comprehension!
Luo Fan was very curious about how much he would gain this time.
He directly summoned the Space Worm clone and Mechanical Race clone to the origin land of the Original Universe clone, without entering the Time God Palace.
After all, the duration of enlightenment was fixed. Even if his two clones entered the Time God Palace, they could not extend the enlightenment time.
Since that was the case, there was no need to waste divine power.
As for the clones, because they could not comprehend laws or create secret techniques, they would not enter an enlightenment state.
At present, the clones were strong enough to handle most external dangers.
Without hesitation, Luo Fan directly claimed the rewards and entered enlightenment.
In an instant, the original body and the three clones felt a mysterious energy surge within them.
Immediately after, Luo Fan realized that all the problems he had accumulated before could now be instantly answered.
...
The clones were not idle either.
Luo Fan once again sent over a hundred thousand clones to the General's Mansion to make up the number to 129,600.
This was mainly to complete tasks.
To obtain the reward inheritances.
After claiming the rewards, the clones began examining the vast number of God King-level inheritances granted by the system.
There were even Origin-level inheritances above the God King level!
These inheritances would all become Luo Fan's foundation, making it easier for his original body and clones to create secret techniques.
Because there were simply too many inheritances, Luo Fan had to temporarily give up his plan to hunt Universe Masters of the Purple Moon Holy Land.
Most of his clones were now comprehending the inheritance rewards obtained from the system.
Even the clones on the Original Stars were doing the same.
The human race Universe Masters also knew that Luo Fan was at a critical stage, participating in the third and fourth rounds of trials.
After all, Luo Fan had told them the contents of these two trials.
Since the inheritances provided in the fourth round were not important, Qing Qiong did not restrict whether Luo Fan could share them.
Only the gene diagrams of the third round could not be shared without the biological materials.
As for the system reward inheritances Luo Fan obtained, the human race Universe Masters were not planning to comprehend them yet.
They needed to focus on solving the puzzles.
However, Luo Fan still gave several hundred axe-path inheritances suitable for Giant Axe.
All of them were at the God King level.
Giant Axe had already entered seclusion.
As for matters on the Original Stars, the human race experts did not care.
Even if the absence of Luo Fan caused fewer gains or higher mortality among the human race Venerables, it did not matter.
The most important thing was inheritance.
Thus, time passed quickly, and twenty thousand years went by.
This enlightenment lasted a full twenty thousand years.
The previous enlightenment had combined the rewards from reaching one billion and ten billion comprehension.
That enlightenment lasted one hundred years.
What did that enlightenment bring?
Law comprehension aside, those were merely secondary.
Even research on gene levels was secondary.
At that time, Luo Fan's main focus was on creating secret techniques and refining treasures.
Even so, that single enlightenment allowed Luo Fan, whose gene level research had only reached a few hundred times, to directly grasp over six thousand times.
Yes, from that time until now, after so many years, Luo Fan had only increased his gene level mastery by just over one thousand times.
This showed how terrifying enlightenment was.
As for his main research areas, secret techniques and treasure refining:
In terms of secret techniques, he consecutively created Universe Master pinnacle and ultimate secret techniques.
This was still limited by insufficient foundation and lack of combat experience.
The main issue was foundation.
Fighting experts of the same level mainly helped learn their strengths and discover one's weaknesses.
However, if the human race possessed enough high-level inheritances, Luo Fan would not need to fight others at all.
With high-level inheritances as guidance, he would already be on the correct path.
As for treasure refining, Luo Fan, who originally was not skilled in crafting, directly reached the level of refining ordinary treasures.
In the Original Universe, being able to refine ordinary treasures was already considered a master craftsman.
Many craftsmen needed countless epochs of study to reach that level.
But Luo Fan crossed that threshold in just one hundred years of enlightenment.
And now, with over one hundred million God King inheritances, combined with this enlightenment triggered by breaking through one hundred billion and one trillion comprehension—
Luo Fan's gains reached an extremely terrifying level.
Eighth-order secret techniques and a gene level of 63,420 times!
Through system tasks, Luo Fan also obtained a True God treasure, a Void True God treasure, an Eternal True God treasure, and a Chaos Master-level blade weapon.
All of them were perfectly suited to the secret techniques he created.
The rewards for breaking through gene levels included a Void True God and an Eternal True God-level origin treasure.
The Eternal True God-level origin treasure could increase the Original Universe clone's absorption speed of chaotic airflow by ten billion times!
At the same time, both origin treasures were filled with ownerless divine power!
The Original Universe clone immediately absorbed all of it.
Now, its diameter had reached 1.1 billion light-years!
And it was still expanding at a terrifying rate.
At the moment Luo Fan ended his enlightenment, all clones in the Universe Sea and the Original Universe paused simultaneously.
Then, they all flew toward the Space Worm clone.
This included the clones in the General's Mansion.
Qing Qiong looked at the suddenly departing clones, somewhat puzzled.
However, as long as Luo Fan's original body did not leave, it was fine.
Still, one clone remained as a "battery" for the original body.
The Space Worm clone was the first to begin restructuring its divine body.
It suddenly shattered.
Then, the shattered divine power began to reorganize.
Soon, a new Space Worm clone appeared.
The Original Universe clone immediately transmitted a large amount of origin energy, instantly restoring its divine power.
The Mechanical Race clone did the same.
It shattered and reformed, and after reconstruction, it showed slight changes.
Once its divine power was fully restored, its divine body directly reached 100 million kilometers!
The Space Worm clone's body size did not change.
Because when the gene level exceeds 30,000 times, the divine body height increases tenfold, with a limit of one million kilometers.
When it exceeds 60,000 times, it increases another hundredfold, with a limit of 100 million kilometers.
However, the Space Worm clone's body was already ten billion kilometers, so it did not expand further.
Unless Luo Fan raised the gene level to 90,000 times.
This time, researching gene levels was somewhat troublesome.
Because he was not studying just one life form.
The original body and the Space Worm clone were flesh-based life forms, but the Mechanical Race clone was not.
It was more like a metal life form.
However, for the Original Universe clone, this was not a problem.
After the Space Worm clone and Mechanical Race clone completed their reconstruction, the original body also began restructuring its divine power.
...
Qing Qiong, who had been quietly observing the trial participants solving puzzles, suddenly raised his eyebrows.
A portion of his attention had always been on Luo Fan.
Now, he saw that Luo Fan had begun shattering his divine body to advance his gene level.
A smile appeared on his face.
"Not bad."
"In just twenty thousand years of real time, he has broken through the perfect gene level."
"It seems this little fellow has a high chance of passing the third round."
While Qing Qiong was speaking, several thousand more clones suddenly appeared in Luo Fan's space.
Because Luo Fan realized something.
His divine body would soon reach a height of 100 million kilometers.
Although the clones had abundant divine power and large bodies, that was only relative to his previous original body.
Each clone's body was only 100 million kilometers long.
And since they were not newly bred by the Space Worm clone, their gene level was only one hundred times.
So Luo Fan recalled several thousand clones to ensure his original body could reach its limit.
Soon, Qing Qiong, who was observing with a strand of consciousness, suddenly froze.
Because he discovered that Luo Fan's divine body kept expanding as it absorbed the clones' divine power.
It had already exceeded ninety thousand kilometers!
Normally, before reaching a gene level of 30,000 times, the limit for ordinary life forms was around ninety thousand kilometers.
But Luo Fan had surpassed it.
At this moment, Qing Qiong no longer cared about the other trial participants.
With a flash, he appeared directly in Luo Fan's room.
At this moment, Luo Fan's divine body had already reached several hundred thousand kilometers in height.
And as his divine power recovered, it continued expanding!
Soon, it reached one million kilometers!
Qing Qiong was completely shocked.
He knew what this meant.
After all, he had experienced this stage himself.
"Twenty thousand years to reach thirty thousand times…"
"This… the bearing of a God King!"
Qing Qiong's face was filled with excitement.
He had not expected that this inheritance trial would bring such a successor to the State of Wu.
He had originally thought that in a place like the Universe Sea, he might need countless reincarnation eras to find even two successors.
He had already prepared for that.
After all, the difficulty of his inheritance trials was extremely high.
Finding Luo Fan this time had already been a pleasant surprise.
But even then, he had only thought Luo Fan could pass the Star Abyss Sect's trial, while the State of Wu's inheritance trial still carried a risk of failure.
Yet now, Luo Fan once again displayed terrifying growth speed.
Twenty thousand years, and his gene level reached thirty thousand times!
But in the next moment, he realized—
Thirty thousand times was not Luo Fan's limit!
Luo Fan's divine body was still continuing to grow!
