Chapter 528: The Great Increase of Divine Power
Only rules can fight against rules. Even though his defense is amazing now, Lu Changjing dare not guarantee that his defense can withstand the power of rules.
However, according to ancient books, the reason why many magical powers are so mysterious and wonderful, often allowing practitioners to possess special powers that surpass those of the same level, is because they involve the power of rules, which can allow practitioners below the upper three realms to mobilize some of the power of rules.
Just like Lu Changjing's big and small Ruyi magical powers, in terms of increasing strength and speed, they are simply too strong and cannot be explained by the power of the lower three realms and the middle three realms.
This should be the result of the activation of the power of rules, or even more power, which has such an effect.
Therefore, supernatural powers should also belong to the power of rules. Since supernatural powers belong to the power of rules, then many characteristics that are no less than supernatural powers must also involve the power of rules, right?
This thought suddenly appeared in Lu Changjing's mind, and he became inexplicably excited.
After all, what worries him most during this period of time is the many holy symbols and holy artifacts that exist in the Night Sea. They can use the power of rules to trace back to the original body. Once he cannot resist this power, he will die and no longer exist, even if it is a clone.
Although the art of clone mastered by the Earth Lord and the Heaven Lord is also a magical power, it is not for defense and cannot resist the tracing of attack rules.
Moreover, this kind of magical power is shared by all the earth masters and heaven masters. It is not known whether it will have a canceling effect. At least this kind of magical power, which is similar to the clone, cannot resist this kind of rule tracing and attack.
Unless it is a defensive magical power, or those special magical powers that can resist the tracing of rules, it must at least have this effect, in order to be effective.
For example, features like hiding, super recovery, and super damage reduction.
Unfortunately, when the rules of Fengtianhanyu were tracing his body, Lu Changjing did not use his ability to hide, but he used characteristics such as super recovery, super damage reduction, and super rebound.
At least when facing the aura of the rules of the Sealing Heaven Cold Prison, Lu Changjing, who was only at the level of Earth Venerable at the time, managed to resist it. He even took this opportunity to hone his Sealing Cold Secret Art and practiced it to perfection.
At that time, I thought that my defense was too strong, which was why I was able to block the attack of the rule aura.
But now think about it, even if it is the aura of rules, it also belongs to the power of rules. Under normal circumstances, it is definitely not something that a Earth Lord like me can resist.
If it were any other Earth Lord, even if he had amazing defense, he would probably be destroyed by the power of rules in an instant, and nothing would be left.
However, Lu Changjing not only blocked the aura of rules, but also absorbed it, which is a bit unscientific.
It seemed normal at the time, but now that I think about it carefully, it is most likely because many of these characteristics can also trigger the power of rules. With the superposition of various factors, this enabled Lu Changjing to resist and absorb the aura of rules with his cultivation at the level of Earth Venerable. Otherwise, it would not be so exaggerated.
Only rules can fight against rules, which is an iron rule left in many ancient books.
There is no reason why it would not work on Lu Changjing. It is most likely because Lu Changjing also has the power of rules, which is why he was able to survive that disaster and turn a disaster into a blessing.
Thinking of this, Lu Changjing basically confirmed the matter, and his heart was relieved a lot. Since he also had the power of rules, if he faced the holy symbols and holy weapons of the Night Sea again in the future, he should have a certain resistance.
Hiding can also conceal oneself. As long as one is not facing particularly powerful holy symbols, one should be able to resist the tracking of these holy symbols and holy artifacts. Unfortunately, it has never been tried before.
The basic defense increased to 230 billion times that of an ordinary person. After many enhancements, the total defense reached 920 trillion times that of an ordinary person.
This is just an increase in defense, strength, speed and other aspects have also achieved amazing improvements.
The basic strength of an ordinary one-star Heavenly Master is 10 billion kilograms, but Lu Changjing's basic strength reaches 230 billion kilograms. After being blessed by the big and small Ruyi magical powers, his strength can increase dramatically to 138 billion kilograms.
With the support of many combat skills, techniques, secret arts, and heavenly weapons..., his destructive power can reach up to about 280 trillion kilograms, or 280 trillion kilograms.
The destructive power of an ordinary Nine-Po Tianzun is generally around 10 trillion kilograms, and Lu Changjing's destructive power is more than 20 times that.
Even those strange beasts in the world that are famous for their attacks actually only have destructive power of around 100 trillion kilograms, and Lu Changjing's is about three times that.
Not only in terms of defense, but also in terms of destructive power, Lu Changjing can be regarded as the number one creature below the upper three realms. No other creature can compare to him.
After entering the realm of Heavenly Venerate, his magical powers, both big and small, increased dramatically, capable of increasing Lu Changjing's strength by sixty times, or his speed by sixty times.
This is a terrifying increase, far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
In terms of speed, after such an increase, Lu Changjing's speed has exceeded 10 million kilometers per second, reaching about 15 million kilometers.
In the myths and legends of the previous life, Sun Wukong could travel 18,000 miles with one somersault, and Lu Changjing could travel tens of millions of kilometers with one somersault.
To some extent, Lu Changjing has now far surpassed the myths and legends of his previous life.
At least in terms of spirit, energy and vitality, it surpasses many existences in the myths and legends of previous lives.
However, in the mythological world of the previous life, there also existed the Way of Heaven, which was similar to rules. Even with the blessing of the Way of Heaven, Lu Changjing was not sure that he could dominate the world.
Stepping into the realm of Heavenly Venerate, the originally mist-like source energy has transformed into cloud, lingering in Lu Changjing's Chang'an world, and can be transformed into heavenly blood, weather and heavenly soul at any time.
Source Qi is the root, and essence, energy and spirit are just manifestations of source Qi.
With the refinement and enhancement of the pure source energy, Lu Changjing's spirit and energy also achieved a leap-forward growth, far surpassing before.
Of course, the biggest improvement is the Chang'an world, which has been transformed from an internal world into a starry world, able to leave the main body and travel between heaven and earth.
Its diameter has surprisingly reached nearly 3,000 kilometers, while for an ordinary one-star Heavenly Master when he just broke through, the diameter of the starry world is only over 100 kilometers.
Lu Changjing's was more than twenty times that, far exceeding them.
If converted into area, it would be about 27 million square kilometers, far exceeding any country in the previous life.
Moreover, the 27 million square kilometers of territory of the Chang'an world can be arranged at will by Lu Changjing, and the number of living beings it can accommodate is incomparable to that in the previous life.
The originally frivolous world of Chang'an, after experiencing the baptism of the world catastrophe, was like a piece of iron transformed from cotton. It could easily withstand the ups and downs of the outside world, and even absorb massive amounts of power of heaven and earth from the outside world to expand and improve itself.
With such an astonishing size, it is obviously more qualified to be called a star than other ordinary celestial beings.
If it were revealed, it would really look like a star, hanging high in the sky, releasing brilliant light.
As his thoughts turned, layers of starlight swept in, enveloping Lu Changjing. He looked like a god, protected by the starlight.
These starlights are like a gorgeous robe, wrapping up Lu Changjing and protecting him tightly, with extremely amazing defensive power. When integrated into the Nine Dragon Cover, it can almost increase the defense of the Nine Dragon Cover to 10 trillion times that of ordinary people, which is the ultimate defense of ordinary Nine Breaking Heavenly Venerables. It is conceivable how amazing Lu Changjing's defense is at this moment.
Not to mention the defense of its body, the defense combined with the Nine Dragon Cover and the starlight alone is not something that most people can break.
The clone of Earthly Venerable also transformed into the clone of Heavenly Venerable, abbreviated as Heavenly Body, which can give birth to two Heavenly Bodies, each of which will have about 80% of Lu Changjing's strength.
However, he currently only has one celestial body. As it has not been properly nurtured and has just broken through, it only has about 50% of the strength of his original body. Even so, he can already dominate the realm of the Heavenly Venerate.
Later on, Lu Changjing will focus on nurturing a second celestial body, which will further enhance his strength and also allow him to improve faster in other aspects, such as combat skills, secret techniques, and secondary positions.
Although it is impossible to improve the level of cultivation, these aspects are also extremely important.
Moreover, after entering the realm of Heavenly Venerate, Lu Changjing's deputy position can make rapid progress. It won't take long before he can be promoted to Intermediate Heavenly Array Master and Intermediate Heavenly Pill Master.
With his extremely strong foundation at the moment, it is not impossible for him to move up one or two levels.
With the help of initiation, it is really not easy to upgrade these secondary positions.
Nowadays, the initiation technique has already reached the level of low-level celestial technique and is not far from the intermediate celestial technique.
With this breakthrough, Lu Changjing's overall strength has increased by at least ten times compared to before. He was already able to look down on the realm of the Heavenly Venerate, and now he is close to being invincible.
Now that we have made a breakthrough, we should celebrate and use the enemy's head as a gift.
"The Myriad Swordsmanship: Ten Thousand Swords Return to Their Origin!"
As the Heavenly Soul fluctuates, the area within a radius of tens of millions of kilometers is under its control. Anyone who behaves improperly will be shrouded in the Heavenly Soul.
Countless sword energies suddenly burst out along with billions of swords, covering the sky and the earth, sweeping away those evildoers.
From the incarnation of the Heavenly Lord to ordinary gods and demons, no one was able to fight back before these sword energies.
"Swish, swish, swish, swish..."
Under the shocked gazes of countless onlookers, the sword energy seemed to have eyes and killed all the enemies, leaving no one behind.
Cai Chaoan, Wang Jin and others knew that Lu Changjing had already made a breakthrough and successfully entered the realm of Heavenly Venerate. From now on, he would live for tens of thousands of years, which would be enough for the Wanxiang Sect to maintain its dominant position for tens of thousands of years again.
When he was at the level of Earth Venerable, Lu Changjing was able to suppress all tribes in the Wanxiang Sea. Even the Five Broken Heavenly Venerables were enslaved by him, not to mention that he has now entered the level of Heavenly Venerable.
Even if I can't reach the level of invincibility, I'm afraid it's almost there.
An almost invincible Heavenly Lord is fully capable of allowing the Wanxiang Sect to maintain its dominant position, because this is a mysterious world where personal power is respected.
The reason why the Wanxiang Sect was able to rise in the past and gradually become the overlord of this sea area was because of the rise of the Invincible Heavenly Venerable, who led the Wanxiang Sect to conquer the east and the west without any opponents. This established the status of the Wanxiang Sect.
Lu Changjing now has such aura. Even if he is not invincible, he should not be far from it.
After this breakthrough, just one move of Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin is enough to show his current state.
Cai Chaoan, Wang Jin and others were in high spirits and went to greet Lu Changjing one after another. All the supreme masters of the general elephant also came out, and the supreme masters of other elephants also came over to congratulate Lu Changjing.
The birth of every Heavenly Lord is qualified to be announced to the entire Wanxiang Sea, and a grand celebration must be held to celebrate the appearance of a Heavenly Lord.
To put it bluntly, if a Heavenly Master is born in an ordinary family, the family will instantly become a time-honored family, possess an incredible status in the vast sea of all things, and can easily rule over hundreds of countries.
This is the great Lord of Heaven standing at the pinnacle of the Wanxiang Sea. There are only more than a thousand of them in the entire sea, and it is not certain that one will be born among tens of billions of creatures.
Lu Changjing greeted him with a smile and agreed to the Tianzun celebration. This was also as it should be, and Lu Changjing did not want to be different.
Besides, it's not easy to cultivate to this level now, so it's time to celebrate and give all the people of Chang'an Xian Dynasty a reassurance so that they can feel at ease.
When recruiting Chang'an citizens in the future, there will surely be more pregnant women signing up, and Lu Changjing will have more choices at that time.
Even if some pregnant women do not meet the standards, he can sell them as favors, or exchange them for resources and treasures. Anyway, it will not have much impact on him.
The soul imprints of many living beings do not occupy a large space and are not much of a burden to Lu Changjing.
After all, his Chang'an world covers an area of tens of millions of square kilometers. Its stability, defense, and toughness are far beyond ordinary people's imagination, so its carrying capacity will naturally not be bad.
Later, Lu Changjing will further expand the place for nurturing babies, so that it can accommodate more pregnant women and give birth to more Chang'an citizens.
As expected, as they entered the realm of the Heavenly Lord, more elephants and families wanted to send their descendants to reproduce in Lu Changjing's Chang'an world, including many Heavenly Lords who were superior to elephants.
After all, Lu Changjing was a newly promoted Supreme Heavenly Lord, and he still had tens of thousands of years to live. If his descendants could become citizens of Chang'an, it would mean that they would not encounter any unexpected disasters in the next tens of thousands of years. They might even be able to live in the Chang'an world for a long time and have an even longer lifespan.
As the master of the Chang'an world, Lu Changjing can spend his energy to maintain the lifespan of the people there. Of course, these people must be born in the Chang'an world.
If it were outside, the effect would not be as good as for the people of Chang'an, and it would require more resources.
Even for Lu Changjing, unless they were close relatives, concubines, parents of concubines, or his own children, he would not be willing to spend a lot of resources to maintain their lives.
Only the people born in the Chang'an world require less expenses.
That is why many Heavenly Lords and Supremes want their descendants to be born in the Chang'an world and become the citizens of Chang'an. Later on, for those descendants they care about, by spending a little resources and treasures, they can let Lu Changjing help them maintain a longer lifespan.
The starry world of the Heavenly Masters can extend the lifespan of the people therein by dozens of times at most. Although they cannot yet have the same lifespan as the Heavenly Masters, it is still very long.
Moreover, because of the strong foundation of Lu Changjing's Chang'an world, the effect is even stronger, and it can probably extend its lifespan by about a hundred times.
