Chapter 163: The Crystal BalPs Function! Helping Huang Di Improve
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Huang Di returned from Universe City, he immediately went to find Gu Changqing. After guarding the place for three months, he was about to be surpassed by his juniors.
Arriving at the general office, he saw that Gu Changqing was dealing with some more important matters.
At this moment, Huang Di walked in quickly, “Your Excellency, are you busy?”
Goodness!
This aura!
When he stepped into the office, his eyes widened and his pupils constricted. Gu Changqing’s body emitted waves of aura that made him feel incomparably shocked.
After merely thirty days of not seeing each other, he already couldn’t see through the depth of Gu Changqing’s strength anymore.
The higher his level, the more he could feel how terrifying Gu Changqing’s aura was.
“You’re back. How’s the situation over there?”
Gu Changqing put down the documents in his hand and threw a cigarette at Huang Di.
Huang Di took the cigarette, sat down on the sofa, and lit it up. H
Gu Changqing lit a cigarette for himself and said with a faint smile, “It seems you can tell. Not bad!”
Huang Di recalled and sighed, “As expected! I’ve been at tier 99 for so long, but
I’ve never been able to grasp the path of Transcendence. Every time I feel like I’ve grasped the profound mysteries of a breakthrough, I’d fail without exception.”
As a veteran tier-99 expert, the experience and foundation that he possessed far surpassed that of ordinary Divine Runemasters at tier 99. He could already sense the opportunity to break through, but he could never grasp it.
Gu Changqing, who had just experienced a breakthrough, knew better than anyone what the key to it was. The main point was the divine rune itself. The stronger it was, the easier it would be to break through.
After transcending, Gu Changqing saw simplicity in the Great Dao through the changes in his strange runes, seeing that they were more refined and pure now.
The divine runes seemed to have been advancing through this path since the very beginning. It was just that in the current universe, divine runes had overcomplicated forms.
They actually evolved into a myriad of changes, each with its own characteristics. However, what was the foundation of the divine rune?
From awakening until now, Gu Changqing had thought about this many times. He never found a solution.
Blue Star’s origin, Mount Kunlun, the Blood Moon, and Universe City. Could these places have the answer?
Gu Changqing abandoned these thoughts in his heart. Right now, he had an idea that needed to be tested on Huang Di.
“Senior HUang, do you want to try something? However, there might be risks.”
Huang Di agreed without thinking, “Try what? Star Emperor Gu, if you need me to do anything, just tell me.”
Gu Changqing said seriously, “Breaking through to tier 99!”
If he was confident, Emperor Qin was even more confident in breaking through. However, the latter’s mentality had already become a problem for his current state.
On the contrary, Huang Di had no such concerns. After weighing the pros and cons, Gu Changqing still decided to try this on the latter. In addition, Gu Changqing wanted to upgrade the armor’s divine patterns.
“Really? What do you need me to do?”
Huang Di was delighted. After exploring for so many years, how could he not be happy when the opportunity was right in front of him?
“Let’s go!”
Gu Changqing took him to the Time Box.
There was still a day before Universe Citys opening, but in the Time Box, a whole year was enough.
In that space, Gu Changqing and Huang Di stood facing each other. A crystal ball that was smaller than a football floated between the two of them. It was the one that Miao Luoyan from Supreme Star Academy had given to him.
It was such a precious treasure, yet he didn’t actually know how to use it. How laughable.
The crystal ball’s true origin could only be sought out if he personally made a trip to Supreme Star Academy. Strictly speaking, it was a pure crystal made up of divine runes.
It had no divine rune attributes, and absorbing it wouldn’t evolve any divine runes abilities. Its power was simple and crude— It could increase a divine rune’s strength.
Just this big ball was comparable to half of the resources Gu Changqing had consumed when he broke through.
Gu Changqing originally wanted to keep this crystal ball to himself so that he could break through to the Transcendent Realm. Unexpectedly, there was no need for that anymore.
Moreover, this was a good opportunity for Huang Di to upgrade his divine runes.
Gu Changqing said lightly, “It’s starting!”
Huang Di nodded excitedly, “Good!”
Gu Changqing didn’t say much.
The strange mark in his hand lit up, and a gray halo wrapped around the crystal ball. It guided the extremely pure power of divine runes and transferred them to the divine runes on Huang Di’s body.
The divine runes on Huang Di’s armor originally belonged to Gu Changqing. Thus, the latter knew better than anyone else how to control the divine runes’ powers. At this moment, the power of the divine runes from the crystal ball was being absorbed by the armor.
The process was slow and boring. In the silent space, only the light shining on their bodies proved the passage of time.
In the second month, a divine light appeared on the armor. Huang Di was surprised to find that his potential index had broken through to 17 ,ooo stars. In the third month, his potential index broke through 18,000.
In the fifth month, it broke through 19,000.
In the seventh month, it broke through 20,000.
In the past, this was an unimaginable value. Now, he had achieved it in less than a year.
Huang Di was brimming with confidence. His armor did not have a number of layers, but he could already feel that its divine runes were constantly improving. The power he could unleash was several times greater than before.
This divine rune that originally belonged to Gu Changqing was ridiculously strong. Unfortunately, his tyrannical personality meant that he was destined to be unable to use it.
The benefits from upgrading the divine rune was that its power could be absorbed much faster.
After eight months, Huang Di’s potential index reached 21,000 stars. After just half a month, it reached 22,000.
At this point, more than half of the crystal ball had been used up, but Huang Di still showed no signs of breaking through. His emperor armor had also reached tier 99 Battle Emperor level.
After nine months, his potential index reached 23,000 stars. The crystal ball was only the size of a fist.
Am I going to fail?
Huang Di muttered in his heart.
Seeing that Huang Di was somewhat discouraged, Gu Changqing decisively reminded him, “Senior Huang, pay attention!”
Huang Di understood that he was being too hasty, and immediately stabilized his state of mind. He continued cooperating with Gu Changqing to absorb the remaining divine runes from the crystal ball.
The last trace of divine rune power soon ran out, but Huang Di still couldn’t sense the opportunity to break through.
It was impossible to say that he wasn’t disappointed. A desolate expression appeared on his face, but he immediately felt relieved.
At this moment, divine light circulated around his body. His every move was indescribably mysterious, and his potential value had also reached an astonishing 24,000 stars.
Although he was still at tier-99, his tier was already a notch higher than all the other tier-99 Battle Emperors.
Huang Di said to Gu Changqing, who had a serious expression. “This is already very good!”
It must be a segment that I didn’t notice!
Gu Changqing pondered, recalling which detail went wrong. Could it be

This universe seemed to not allow the birth of Transcendent Realm creatures.
“Come, let us try again!”
Gu Changqing planned to use the strange mark’s purest power to help Huang Di try again.
