"Are you crazy? A thousand years?"
Upon hearing this request, before Chen Yuan could even speak, the Star Ancestor exclaimed in shock, "You expect this little fellow to comprehend the pinnacle secret technique of a Universe Lord in such a short time?!"
"Isn't this thanks to your miniature cosmic acceleration?" The Mountain Dweller chuckled dismissively.
"Even with a 10,000-fold acceleration, it would only be a thousand epochs. Let alone this little guy, even if a true master of the universe came, he might not be able to create a peak secret technique."
The Star Ancestor shook his head repeatedly: "Besides, this little guy is only at the World Lord level. Are you planning to let him die of old age in my universe?"
"If the human race finds out, the Giant Axe Founder will surely march straight to my Ancestral Mountain!"
"Don't worry, my disciple has a perfect life clone with a lifespan exceeding ten million epochs." After saying this, the Mountain-Sitting Guest looked at Chen Yuan: "Disciple, are you confident you can stay inside for a thousand epochs?"
"Of course, if you can figure out the secret technique in advance, you can leave directly."
"Don't worry, teacher." Chen Yuan nodded. "A thousand epochs is more than enough."
The Mountain-Sitter smiled, then glanced warily at the Starry Sky Ancestor: "You heard that?"
"You little rascal, you don't know your place."
The Star Ancestor shook his head helplessly, "Do you think that a secret technique at the level of a universe master is as simple as the ordinary secret techniques you cultivate? Let alone a peak secret technique."
"You should know that the strongest of the various secret techniques circulating outside is only a peak secret technique, and its upper limit is only at the level of a universe overlord."
"Even the pinnacle secret techniques created by the overlord of the universe are just commonplace to the true master of the universe, barely usable."
"However, a peak-level secret technique at the level of a universe lord is qualified to be the primary combat secret technique for some powerful universe lords!"
The colossal eyes of the Star Ancestor gazed at Chen Yuan: "Little fellow, are you aware of the difference?"
"Thank you for your explanation, Ancestor. I understand now," Chen Yuan replied respectfully. "Please allow me to enter the Beast God Realm to cultivate."
"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. Just don't let the humans come looking for trouble with me in the future."
The Star Ancestor sighed, then unfolded a pitch-black passage in front of Chen Yuan: "Go in, the Beast God Realm is inside."
"Thank you, Ancestor."
Chen Yuan bowed respectfully, then bowed to the guest sitting on the mountain and said, "Teacher, I'll go in now."
"Go." The mountain dweller nodded, watching Chen Yuan's figure disappear into the dark passage.
After the Star Ancestor closed the passage, he looked at the figure of the Mountain Guest and shook his head, saying, "I still can't believe that your disciple could create a peak secret technique in just one thousand epochs."
"If Chen Yuan didn't have some special talent, how could he have become my apprentice?"
The mountain dweller smiled confidently: "Just wait and see, it will be no more than a thousand years."
"If you don't believe me, how about we make a bet? I'll offer a top-tier treasure." A sly glint flashed in his eyes.
"A bet?" The Starry Sky Ancestor pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, since your disciple cultivates the Path of the Beast God, I'll offer that set."
"It's a deal." The mountain dweller grinned.
On the other side, once the flow of time around him stabilized, Chen Yuan found himself in a vast forest.
"It really is accelerated ten thousand times—"
Through the connection between his clones, Chen Yuan confirmed that he had arrived in the Beast God Realm, and couldn't help but sigh.
He opened the system panel and glanced at it, a smile immediately spreading across his face: "Just as I thought, the Beast God Realm is recognized by the system as an independent universe within the Star Ancestor's small universe."
"In other words, although I am currently in a state of 10,000 times acceleration, the system is based on this time flow rate."
This means that when Chen Yuan spent 10,000 days in the Beast God Realm, the system determined that 10,000 days had actually passed, rather than one day in the original universe!
"Isn't this just a permanent cube-multiplying accelerator?"
Chen Yuan carefully examined the panel and discovered that both the system tasks and the speed at which the Holy Embryo absorbed the source energy were based on the time of the Beast God Realm.
"And the simulation space is still usable!" he exclaimed in surprise. "Another ten thousand times speedup on top of that... that's a hundred million times acceleration!"
"Chen Yuan!"
A deafening sound came from the sky.
"Whoosh!" Chen Yuan soared into the air, his gaze fixed on the distance. A dark cloud flew rapidly toward him, and upon approaching, it transformed into an elderly human with nine sharp horns on its head.
"Greetings, Ancestor." Chen Yuan bowed respectfully.
"Hmm." The Star Ancestor nodded: "Chen Yuan, just now, I made a bet with your teacher."
"A bet?" Chen Yuan asked curiously.
"Your teacher brought it up himself, and even used a top-tier treasure as a wager."
"But I think your teacher is likely to lose."
The Ancestor gently shook his head and continued, "There are countless inheritances in this Beast God Realm. Even the ultimate secret techniques of the Lord of the Universe are dozens of sets. According to the agreement, you can learn them at will."
"Then use what you've learned to create secret techniques and ultimately defeat me!"
Chen Yuan blinked.
The progenitor smiled calmly: "I will maintain the same level of power as you, and the secret technique I use will be a top-tier secret technique that is infinitely close to the peak level. If you can defeat me in this state, it will prove that you have mastered the peak secret technique of the Lord of the Universe and successfully completed the trial."
"If you succeed, then I will also lose a set of supreme treasure equipment to your teacher," the Ancestor said calmly. "So, don't expect me to go easy on you."
"Understood." Chen Yuan nodded and solemnly said, "I will do my best to complete the trial and live up to my teacher's expectations."
"I hope you can maintain this confidence." The Ancestor shook his head. "You can cultivate here. This avatar of mine will remain in the Beast God Realm."
"If you feel confident, shout to the sky, and I will appear."
"Understood," Chen Yuan replied respectfully. "Respectfully seeing off the Ancestor."
The progenitor of the stars nodded, transformed back into dark clouds, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
Chen Yuan also focused his gaze on the statues in the Beast God Realm, a smile spreading across his face: "Statues of the eight innate Beast Gods, and eight statues of each Beast God, that's a total of 64 Beast God statues!"
"With so many statues, how rich must the imagery of beast gods be contained within them?"
"In addition, with the almost endless secret techniques in the Beast God Realm, we'll have to fill the system's database to the brim this time!"
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan couldn't wait to fly towards one of the statues.
Clearly, given the sheer number of secret techniques present here, recording them all would be an undertaking that cannot be completed in a short time.
Fortunately, Chen Yuan has no shortage of time, after all, Master Zuoshanke has given him a full ten million years.
In his view, it would be worthwhile even if it took hundreds of years to input all these secret techniques into the system's database.
As for creating secret techniques? There's no rush.
Because Chen Yuan not only wanted to transform the artistic conception of the sixty-four statues of the eight great beast gods into nourishment for creating secret techniques, but also wanted to transform all the secret techniques created by countless powerful individuals into nourishment!
In this way, not to mention a mere peak secret technique, he will not lack reference materials when he creates ultimate secret techniques or even the strongest secret techniques in the future.
It can be said that the value of all the secret techniques in the entire Beast God Realm is the greatest opportunity Chen Yuan has encountered since he began cultivating, and its importance to him even surpasses that of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual.
Perhaps the only book comparable to it is the first volume of "The Secret Technique of the Divine Eye".
Chen Yuan quickly flew to a statue of a beast god, which was the statue of the wind beast god "Chengfeng" that he had always longed for.
Unfortunately, with his current level of understanding of the Beast God realm, he still couldn't fully comprehend the mystery of this statue.
Chen Yuan wasn't in a hurry, so he sat cross-legged under the statue and waited quietly.
The system is still collecting data on the "Divine Eye Secret Technique," and according to the progress, it will take several more months to complete the collection.
Only after the data on the Divine Eye Secret Technique has been collected will it be time to collect the data on the artistic conception of the beast god statue in front of us.
While Chen Yuan waited, his fetal breathing technique quietly advanced to the next level, namely the Great Completion stage.
At the same time, his sacred embryo also advanced once again, breaking through from the "Divine Breath Realm" to the "Primordial Breath Realm".
Although this breakthrough did not cause any commotion, Chen Yuan knew that with the advancement of the Holy Embryo, his mental power had increased more than tenfold in all aspects.
First, one must forcefully cross the threshold of will and enter the advanced Venerable Realm, and not just the initial stage.
Secondly, as the Holy Embryo grew stronger, his speed of absorbing the origin of the universe also increased significantly. With the help of the Origin Treasure, he absorbed more than 70 units of Origin Energy every day!
Finally, and most importantly, after breaking through to the Primordial Breath, Chen Yuan's mental will has gained the ability to launch proactive attacks!
Yes, Chen Yuan had already mastered the means of attacking with his will without relying on any secret techniques of willpower.
"The heart is like a sword!"
Chen Yuan condensed his mental power into a sword and attacked a large tree in the distance.
Almost instantly, Chen Yuan's sword of the heart entered the tree trunk and annihilated the entire tree's will.
Then Chen Yuan looked at the tree again and found that although the tree did not look any different, it was actually dead and would no longer actively absorb nutrients to grow.
Moreover, as time goes by, this big tree will gradually wither and decay, eventually turning into a piece of rotten wood, just like a rotting corpse.
This is the method of attacking willpower, directly destroying the opponent's mental will; a single glance can cause a powerful person to fall.
"I never expected that I would have mastered a similar technique before I had even optimized my own willpower secret technique."
Chen Yuan smiled. Although this attack method was very rudimentary, it was still the "Heart Like a Sword" he had comprehended from the "Heart Like a Knife" concept during his Hengxing era. It was just a simple application of will.
However, combined with his evolved mental power, this method can already be considered a rudimentary form of a willpower technique, marking the completion of the transition from 0 to 1.
A crucial step.
"Once the system has collected all the information on the Divine Eye Secret Technique, we'll use this prototype as the basis for optimization."
Chen Yuan smiled slightly, clearly preferring the current attack method to the unknown direction of optimization.
Anyway, as long as he raises the grade, his willpower secret technique may not be inferior to other secret techniques.
With this expectation, several months passed quickly, and the system finally completed the collection of information on the Divine Eye Secret Technique.
Then, while having the system record the beast god's intent before him, Chen Yuan instructed, "System, optimize the Willpower Secret Technique, based on the Mind Sword, and incorporate the information from the 'Divine Eye Secret Technique'."
"The optimization direction is: lower the threshold to the level of a Cosmic Venerable's will, achieve the maximum power of a secret technique of that level, and abandon universality, taking my own as the standard."
