The god-level abyss materials were finally obtained.
It took Zhao Liu nearly three months.
At noon the next day, Li Si returned to Earth on the spacecraft of the Yas Empire and came to the No. 4 ruins outside Canglan City. He handed the materials to Qin Jinnian.
"Ningyuan Fruit, Golden Sun Stone, Yuanjing Ore, Black Nether Branch..."
A total of thirteen kinds of materials were spread on the ground, and immediately a strong breath of the abyss filled the air.
Each of these fruits is extremely expensive and rare in the abyss. If they were placed on Earth and purchased with Earth currency, each one would probably cost more than 10 billion.
Qin Jinnian did not ask how Zhao Liu got it. Zhao Liu had never died, so his memory was not transmitted, but he vaguely knew that the process was still quite difficult.
For this, Zhao Liu traveled to many places and killed many Abyss species...
After taking a look, Qin Jin let out a breath, and then gave an order directly in his mind, asking all the clones to temporarily stay away from other people's sight... He was afraid that during the breakthrough process, if the clones became ineffective, it would not cause too big a problem.
An hour later, many clones found their own places and hid from the sight of others. Qin Jinnian then let out a light breath and looked at the abyss material in front of him...
"My mental strength has exceeded 10,000, giving me that strange perception ability. I wonder what changes will be brought about by the breakthrough in vitality..."
He showed some anticipation in his eyes, then took a deep breath, circulated his spiritual energy, and then covered the abyss material in front of him...
Qin Jinnian's spiritual power is now extremely terrifying. When it starts to operate, the sky and the earth change color, and a loud roar begins to sound in the sky above Ruins No. 4.
Under the surge of spiritual energy, the power in the God-level Abyss Material began to surge, and then poured into his super power core...
"Crack!!!"
The moment the super energy core was washed away, Qin Jinnian seemed to hear a roar.
Then, he seemed to see that his super power core seemed to crack a little bit at this moment, and then an indescribable force began to surge through his body.
Bones, muscles, skin...
Even cells!
An extremely intense pain suddenly swept over me.
Even Qin Jinnian couldn't help but groan, and felt dizzy...
It hurts! It hurts so much! It's as if my entire body, at the cellular level, is beginning to undergo a strong change!
But Qin Jinnian's mental power was as high as 50,000, and his mental strength was extremely strong. When he realized that the super power core seemed to be about to explode, he subconsciously locked it with his mental power in an instant.
In an instant, the super power core was stabilized.
However, the power of the abyss material is like gunpowder... no, it is thousands of times more violent than gunpowder! It is like a nucleus that has already produced a fission reaction.
A terrifying force surged out from the super energy core, as if it was about to explode.
"Is this power so terrifying? To break through the God Level, the super energy core must undergo a qualitative change. In this process, mental strength is particularly important. If you can't use mental strength to restrain this impact, then the super energy core will explode directly, and the body will explode as well!"
"But if you can control it, then during the transformation of the super energy core, the force that impacts the body will 'cleanse' the original flesh, allowing the vitality to gain a huge leap. From then on, there will be a difference between gods and mortals!"
Qin Jinnian is no longer a rookie. He knows that his next step is to break through his vitality. Naturally, he has also checked through various channels what he should pay attention to when breaking through with divine materials.
Among these, the most important is mental strength.
A breakthrough to the God level is a very dangerous thing. If your life and mental strength are not up to standard, you will almost certainly die if you break through rashly.
Otherwise, the mental power would not be able to restrain the super energy core, and it would directly explode. Then naturally, the person would also die. And there would be no trace of the body left.
If one's mental strength is up to standard but his vitality is not, he will also die... The process of the super-energy core's qualitative change will also place a huge burden on the body. If the vitality level is not enough, the body will collapse directly, and there will be no trace of the body left.
Fortunately, Qin Jinnian's mental strength was far beyond the standard. His vitality had also reached its current limit, so everything was not a problem.
…
…
The breakthrough took a total of two hours.
Two hours later...
Qin Jinnian sat in the underground palace of the Vacuum Church in Ruins No. 4. At this moment, his whole body was shining with golden light and was suspended in the air.
His already handsome face was now filled with a sacred golden light. With his eyes slightly closed, he looked like a god descending from the earth, filled with a strong divine aura.
Before this, the power in his body was actually more of spiritual energy. It was just that his mental power had already broken through the divine level, so his mental power brought some divine power.
But at this moment, all the strength in his body has turned into divine power.
This divine power exists in his blood, turning his blood into a rich golden color.
Between the eyebrows, the original super energy core has turned into a pill body that is filled with dark golden light, similar to the legendary "golden pill".
The golden elixir shone everywhere, making his thoughts clear and his brain flexible. For a moment, it seemed as if billions of thoughts flashed through his mind, but as soon as he thought about it, he instantly destroyed these thoughts.
Above the golden elixir, a strange light pattern appeared faintly...
It is the 'Godhead'.
A divine super-powered core! At a certain moment, Qin Jinnian let out a long breath and opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, a ball of brilliant golden light instantly spread in all directions, illuminating the entire underground palace for a moment.
But soon, the golden light dissipated.
Qin Jinnian's eyes returned to their dark color again.
But there was a faint glimmer of dark gold in his eyes.
He sensed his body, and then he revealed an indescribable smile of comfort...
“This change… is huge!”
It was hard to describe how he felt right now.
An unprecedented feeling of power filled my heart.
He looked down at himself floating in the air, but he knew very well that at this moment he was not using any authority or superpowers, but was just floating there instinctively.
The whole world, in his eyes, has become different.
And my body felt relaxed to an indescribable degree.
It was as if... before the breakthrough, his body was like a 'cage' and he was wearing heavy armor.
But now, he took off all the armor at once!
Levitating in the air had become his instinct! He felt that now that he was using the power of wind, his speed would reach an astonishing level.
He subconsciously looked at the panel.
[Life force: 10001]
The vitality exceeds ten thousand.
'1' point more than before.
But based on this one point, he could say for sure... his current combat power was more than ten times stronger than before! Not only in terms of strength and speed, but also in terms of a very strange feeling.
That's 'vitality'...
The whole body is full of vitality!
Before, his vitality was very strong and his energy was very vigorous. He could recover quickly from minor injuries.
But in comparison, this kind of "vitality" is more than a hundred times stronger now! Before, those evil cultists could regenerate their broken arms. Qin Jinnian couldn't do it at that time.
But now, he felt he could do it.
Moreover, he could feel that not only could he do it, but he would not be like those evil cultists, where the limbs born would most likely be deformed.
But Qin Jinnian won’t.
Because his mental power is also extremely strong. The vitality of cells is perfectly controlled by his mental power. So if his arm falls off, he will grow a perfect arm that is exactly the same as the previous one.
It won't be the same.
Qin Jinnian couldn't help but smile...
This is obviously great news.
Because this means that his ability to survive has been greatly improved...
While he was still feeling the difference in his 'new body', several voices rang out in his mind.
"Shadow Lord, have you made a breakthrough?"
Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment: "Yes, a breakthrough."
"Lord of Shadows, we are back. Please summon us again." Zhao Liu's voice sounded, even a little excited: "The authority has given some hints. We will be very different when we are summoned again!"
Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Okay, even if you don't tell me, I will prepare to summon you again..."
The power of the clone is not transmitted synchronously.
Qin Jinnian's original body becomes stronger. If he wants to make his clones stronger as well, he must disband them and then summon them again so that they can enjoy the improved properties.
The situation outside is very chaotic now. Apparently, there are unexpected beings preparing to make a big move, and they are even targeting Dawn. The stronger the clones are, the better. Qin Jinnian originally planned to slowly summon them again.
Now that they've brought it up, let's just do it all at once.
"OK."
With a thought, Qin Jinnian's clones around the world naturally dissipated and turned into a ball of black mist.
Qin Jinnian had asked them to hide before, and now they disappeared, naturally without alarming anyone.
Then Qin Jinnian had an idea.
The next moment, shadows emerged from under his feet and entangled in the air.
And soon after...
The six clones of Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Wu, Zhao Liu, Li Yuqi and the fifth Hatsune gathered in the underground palace.
When they appeared, they looked at their bodies in surprise.
Qin Jinnian also noticed the difference at the first moment.
"you……"
He looked at them with some surprise.
“It’s really different!”
Zhao Liu's eyes lit up first: "Real flesh! This is the feeling of real flesh!"
Yes, real bodies! Although these previous clones also looked like entities, they could even exist forever.
But Qin Jinnian knew that they were not real, but the shadow of power. They looked real, but in fact they were just simulated by "shadows".
They will bleed when they are injured, but after leaving the body, the blood will turn into shadows and dissipate if there is no spiritual power to support it.
If they were killed, they would immediately disintegrate into shadows.
But now, it's different! They seem to have become living people! People with flesh and blood!
The body has bones, flesh, skin, and hair...
There is no difference between them and real people!
"this……"
Qin Jinnian’s eyes widened.
Zhao Liu was already extremely excited and looked at Li Si: "Old Li, come and try to kill me once!"
Li Si raised his eyes and looked at him, and the next moment.
Swoosh! A sharp shadow blade appeared in an instant and slashed across Zhao Liu's neck.
Puff! Blood spurted out.
And this blood has a faint golden color.
Zhao Liu's head fell with an excited smile.
Cells on the body began to surge and gathered madly on the neck. Granulation tissue spread out from the cavity, as if trying to condense into a new head.
But unfortunately, halfway through the condensation, a huge tumor appeared on his neck. In the end, it failed and Zhao Liu fell to the ground.
With golden blood flowing all over the ground...
Qin Jinnian: “…”
He looked at the body lying on the ground...
Didn’t dissipate!
Like a real corpse.
With a thought, the shadow spread out again.
It turned into a shadow cocoon and appeared beside Qin Jinnian.
After a while, Zhao Liu walked out of the cocoon, touching his neck.
"Fuck, Lao Li, how could you be so cruel?"
He looked at Li Si with dissatisfaction and muttered.
Li Si ignored him. All his clones were still looking at Zhao Liu's body on the ground.
Zhao Liu muttered to himself, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he also lowered his head to look at the body on the ground...
The body still exists and has not disappeared.
Qin Jinnian took a breath of cold air...
Really, it became real? This...
He was stunned for a moment.
But soon, he realized something was wrong and frowned.
"Shadow Lord, what's wrong?"
Li Yuqi noticed the change in Qin Jinnian's expression.
Qin Jinnian frowned and said, "Originally, it could be divided into eight clones, but now, it seems that only seven can be divided... It seems that something is needed to fill the missing clone before it can be summoned again... Wait a minute..."
He suddenly had an idea and looked at the information panel.
At this moment, a new message appeared.
"[Your clone has died, and the number of clones has been reduced by 1. You can recover the body through Shadow Devouring, or consume 5 million Shadow Points to restore the number of clones.]"
Qin Jinnian looked surprised.
"Recover the corpse, or consume 5 million shadow points to restore the number of summoned clones?"
He looked at the 'corpse of Zhao Liu', his mind moved, and Shadow Devouring was activated.
Soon, Zhao Liu's body was recovered by him.
Shadow points did not increase.
But he could feel that the quota for eight clones had been restored.
"That is to say... these clones have all become physical clones. They will not disappear after death. But the premise is... these corpses will occupy one of my 'clone quotas'. However, as long as I consume 5 million shadow points, I can restore these 'clone quotas'?"
"Use five million shadow points... to exchange for a real 'God-level existence'?"
Qin Jinnian immediately understood the meaning.
Then his eyes lit up.
The clone has completely materialized, which is obviously great news for him!
The previous deaths of Li Yuqi and the Fifth Hatsune revealed Qin Jinnian’s biggest secret... that is, all the high-level combat forces of Dawn were his clones.
But now, this is obviously not a flaw.
But is this the only change?
Just as Qin Jinnian felt that something seemed to be wrong and was thinking about it, Zhao Liu happily touched his current body and grinned: "I feel... it seems that this body can become stronger through practice!"
After saying this, Qin Jinnian looked at him suddenly.
"What?"
