Thump, thump, thump.

Everyone present could hear the rhythmic heartbeat emanating from Jiang Yuan's chest. Even the minotaurs present were drawn to the heartbeat, one by one stepping into Jiang Yuan's rhythm.

"The power multiplier is actually lower than the energy multiplier!"

After the Heart Secret had been beating for half a minute, Jiang Yuan was speechless. The Heart Secret's boost to strength was clearly not as great as its boost to energy.

However, Jiang Yuan was not surprised, because there are inherent differences between the two.

Finally, Jiang Yuan chose a power amplification of 4.3 times, and then began to activate the Demon God runes in combination with the power runes to support the boulder.

With a loud cracking sound, Jiang Yuan realized his body had reached its limit. He struggled to lift the boulder and slowly stood up. Ten million tons must weigh a tremendous amount, which was an astronomical figure for someone at the Heavenly Spirit Realm.

The minotaurs stared wide-eyed at Jiang Yuan, who was lifting the boulder. Although he looked like he was about to collapse, he had absolutely demonstrated the ultimate in strength and power.

One second!

Two seconds!

Three seconds!

Chief Blackwood sighed inwardly. This achievement had surpassed the record of the Great Chief back then. At the Heavenly Spirit Realm, the Minotaur could not lift a boulder weighing tens of millions of tons by strength alone. He vaguely believed that this human had come to seek the true meaning of power.

"Thump!"

When the boulder was lowered, the entire Blackwood tribe shook violently, demonstrating the immense power of this multi-million-ton boulder.

The moment the boulder hit the ground, the minotaur statue standing there emitted a light, and then a Divine Realm Foundation Establishment Pill fell to the side.

"Next!"

Jiang Yuan walked toward the next test star core, but he gave up at first sight. First of all, the base supporting this star core was actually a god-level forging material, extremely hard and strong. But even such a material was still pressed into a small groove by the star core on it, which shows how terrifying the density and mass of this star core are.

"One hundred million tons!"

When the chief saw Jiang Yuan stop, he calmly stated a number. Jiang Yuan was shocked. He had guessed it would be 100 million tons, but only after confirming it did he realize the terrifying mass of this thing.

"The real transformation begins when you pick it up!"

The chief placed his hands on the star core, and at that moment, the 100 million-ton star core was lifted half a centimeter off the ground. But soon the star core slammed back down to the ground. He continued, "You see? So far, no one in our Blackwood tribe has been able to lift it completely!"

"How heavy is that last piece of star core?"

Jiang Yuan looked at the last star core, which was only the size of a fist, with a strange expression. This star core gave him a different feeling, as if it was not just large in mass.

Chief Blackwood smiled and replied, "The last star core is called the Infinite Star Core. Its weight increases with your cultivation level, and the greater the increase in mass, the better the reward given by the ancestral statue!"

"So, these are mine now?" Jiang Yuan looked at the three Foundation Establishment Pills that he hadn't yet put away.

The chief nodded.

"very good!"

Jiang Yuan unceremoniously took the three Foundation Establishment Pills, and then grasped the last star core. Sure enough, after he covered it with his hand, its mass began to change. Although Jiang Yuan did not know the principle behind it, it did not prevent him from analyzing it using his Creator's abilities.

These star nuclei are neutron-bound entities formed by the extreme compression of atomic nuclei within elements, resulting in unexpectedly large masses.

"Let's give it a try!"

Jiang Yuan gently grasped the star core and began to exert force, but as he did so, a contradictory feeling arose from the star core.

The more he mentions the star core, the greater its mass becomes, as if this infinite star core is forcing you to let go of it, otherwise it will endlessly challenge your limits.

"Is that all? I'll see what your limits are!"

Jiang Yuan's ruthlessness also flared up. Despite the increasing weight of the star core, he showed no intention of letting go.

Ten thousand tons, one hundred thousand tons, one million tons, and ten million tons—these four levels were completed in almost ten seconds.

"Damn it, is this minotaur poisonous?!"

Jiang Yuan had never imagined that the Minotaur could produce such a magical thing.

Another ten seconds passed, and the weight of the star core reached twenty million tons, but Jiang Yuan showed no signs of letting go.

In another ten seconds, the star core will weigh 30 million tons, a mass comparable to a mountain 300 meters long, wide, and high.

This time, Jiang Yuan clearly couldn't support it with one hand, so he had to hold the star core with both hands. The star core was testing his limits, and he was also challenging his own limits.

"hiss!"

The minotaur looked at the shattered divine-level pedestal beneath Jiang Yuan's feet with some horror. How much power would it take to support a star core? Even the Heavenly Spirit Realm and the Divine Realm could probably only achieve this much.

Ten seconds later, the star core weighed forty million tons, but Jiang Yuan still did not give up.

Moreover, it wasn't just 40 million tons. As time went on, the weight of the star core reached 90 million tons. This was the first time Jiang Yuan had bent over. He was already overwhelmed, but there was still a stubborn and indomitable will in his mind.

He had to hold on; he wanted to see if this infinite star core truly possessed infinite mass.

At the 100th second, the weight of the star core approaches 100 million tons, but why do we say it approaches? Because its mass is still one ton short.

That's it?

Jiang Yuan bled from all seven orifices, a result of his body's organs bursting under the pressure of the star core. But he knew that the star core was not infinite; in the Heavenly Spirit Realm, its limit was about one hundred million tons.

"Your limit does not represent my limit!" Jiang Yuan slowly lowered his left hand. As someone who obtained eternal divine power, Ragnarok was the best proof of his abilities. The limit of the star core could not bind him at all.
