Chapter 258
🕑 Added 2024-08-14 04:00:02 +0000 UTC"Unexpectedly, the cosmic power that countless eighth-rank powerhouses in the main world yearn for, I actually grasped its rudiments when I am at the third and fourth stages."
In Lin Yuan's heart, there was inevitably some emotion. The so-called cosmic power, for the advancement of eighth-rank powerhouses, is not just about combat power.
In the future, if he can advance to the ninth rank or even higher, the transformation of cosmic power will be even greater.
For eighth-rank evolvers, wanting to comprehend cosmic power, regardless of whether they can succeed, will definitely consume a lot of time, possibly tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.
But the cosmic power comprehended at the eighth rank, besides the enhancement in combat power, does not provide much help in breaking through to the ninth rank.
But there are still many strong individuals of various races in the main world who want to walk the path of being invincible at the eighth rank.
This seems quite incredible, after all, using this time for integrating rules might have a better chance of reaching the ninth rank.
In fact, being able to comprehend cosmic power at the eighth rank will allow for even further progress on the path to the ninth rank in the future.
But unfortunately, among eighth-rank powerhouses, there are very few who can comprehend cosmic power.
And even among the eighth-rank powerhouses who comprehend cosmic power, the number who eventually advance to the ninth rank is extremely rare.
Among hundreds of thousands of eighth-rank powerhouses, it is considered extremely lucky for one eighth-rank powerhouse who comprehended cosmic power to advance to the ninth rank.
"My Tai Chi Power."
Lin Yuan carefully sensed his own cosmic power, and the transformed Tai Chi Power no longer distinguished between Yin and Yang. It seemed innate, perfect and flawless.
"It is said that cosmic power cannot be replicated, but my Tai Chi Power," Lin Yuan pondered in his heart, and finally shook his head.
This statement is basically correct.
Lin Yuan's Tai Chi Power is formed by the fusion of Yin and Yang.
Even if in later generations, there is a martial artist with extraordinary talent in Yin and Yang like Lin Yuan, who simultaneously controls Yin and Yang.
But whether they can fuse Yin and Yang is another matter, even if they really do fuse Yin and Yang, the power formed in the end is probably not Tai Chi Power.
Lin Yuan's Tai Chi Power does not have a consistent ratio of Yin and Yang, but adjusts according to his own adaptability.
Finally, a brand-new Tai Chi Power is born.
In future generations, even if martial artists fuse Yin and Yang, the power formed will not be Lin Yuan's Tai Chi Power.
"With my current strength, under full eruption, I should be able to easily suppress other eighth-rank invincibles, but to say defeat or even kill them..."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment, feeling unrealistic.
After mastering Tai Chi Power, Lin Yuan's understanding of such cosmic power became even deeper.
Even if Lin Yuan uses all his cards, at most, it would be suppression; killing the opponent would be difficult.
Taking Lin Yuan's Tai Chi Power as an example, once in full defense, it's nearly impervious to attack, and even ten eighth-rank invincibles might not be able to break through the defense.
This is why eighth-rank powerhouses who comprehend some form of cosmic power in the main world are called 'invincible'.
This is the myth of the eighth-rank invincibles.
"Take it slow."
"I feel that there is still much room for improvement in Tai Chi Power."
Lin Yuan's thoughts converged. In the main world, those eighth-rank invincibles who comprehend cosmic power basically will not continue to delve into cosmic power, but will focus all their energy on integrating rules.
Originally, comprehending cosmic power already consumed a lot of time, and continuing to waste time makes the hope of breaking through to the ninth rank even more slim.
Without breaking through to the ninth rank, even if one is an eighth-rank invincible, their lifespan will not be longer than those at the peak of the eighth rank.
Nine Heavens, Fourth Heaven.
Lin Yuan's Yang Divine Spirit and Yin Divine Spirit appeared simultaneously.
Immediately, they began to merge.
Hum.
The flawless Tai Chi Divine Spirit appeared once again.
Compared to the previous Tai Chi Divine Spirit, this Tai Chi Divine Spirit was more pure at this moment, and its influence on space was more stable.
Lin Yuan even vaguely felt that even time was faintly affected.
"This feeling?"
Lin Yuan looked around.
In the Xiaoyao City, even if Lin Yuan mastered the Tai Chi Power, this cosmic power, he would not attempt anything, fearing that with a slight mistake, he would shatter the entire Xiaoyao City.
But there were no such concerns within the Nine Heavens.
The Nine Heavens was vast and endless. The size of each heaven was comparable to the Spirit Realm. Here, the Spirit Realm referred not to the three thousand Dao provinces, but to the entire Spirit Realm.
Coupled with environmental reasons, only true immortal-level powerhouses had the hope of ascending to the Nine Heavens, and even then, it was difficult to encounter others unless they agreed beforehand.
So Lin Yuan could act recklessly here.
Rumble.
The terrifying power began to spread wildly in all directions, and the erupted Tai Chi Power, like a prehistoric behemoth, wantonly stirred everything in the Fourth Heaven.
"Exhilarating."
Lin Yuan laughed heartily. At this moment, he finally understood the confidence of those eighth-rank invincibles in the main world.
This kind of power that surpasses the eighth rank is very easy to make people addicted.
"The strength of my current Tai Chi Divine Spirit is no weaker than that of an eighth-rank invincible, and because of the energy soul body, it is much more difficult to deal with than ordinary eighth-rank invincibles."
Lin Yuan had a precise understanding of his own Divine Spirit.
The Divine Spirit is not a physical body and cannot be blessed by mysterious gourds to enhance the inner world, but the Divine Spirit also has its own advantages, that is, it can be immune to most physical damage.
And the Divine Spirit is an illusory body, unpredictable and mysterious.
In the main world, those eighth-rank invincibles with energy lives are even more daunting than ordinary eighth-rank invincibles.
"Let's continue to explore the true upper limit of Tai Chi Power."
Lin Yuan acted recklessly, and the terrifying power's aftermath began to shake the entire Fourth Heaven, even beginning to affect the Third Heaven and the Second Heaven below.
Nine Heavens, Second Heaven.
A peak True Immortal in the Dao Fusion Stage was currently traveling this layer of heaven with a promising disciple he valued highly.
The Nine Heavens of the Spirit Realm were exceptionally unique. True Immortal-level powerhouses frequently ascended here, occasionally bringing their disciples along. For beings below the True Immortal level, being able to experience the mysteries of the Nine Heavens was considered a great opportunity.
"In the Second Heaven, there are often 'wonders' and 'phenomena' occurring. Tomorrow, pay close attention and remember everything. It will be greatly beneficial for your future cultivation path," the peak Dao Fusion Stage True Immortal, a white-browed elder, advised with a smile as he stroked his beard.
"Yes, Elder." A young man beside him swallowed hard, trying hard to observe his surroundings and memorize everything he saw.
After a while.
"Elder, this Nine Heavens is so vast, isn't it?" the young man couldn't help but remark.
"My Nine Heavens in the Spirit Realm are boundless. This is only the Second Heaven; there are still the Third Heaven, Fourth Heaven..." the peak Dao Fusion Stage True Immortal patiently explained.
"But only those in the Half-Step Tribulation Stage can attempt to ascend the Third Heaven. As for the Fourth Heaven, that is the domain of Tribulation Stage Immortal Kings," the white-browed elder sighed. Although he had reached the peak of the Dao Fusion Stage, the Tribulation Stage was still beyond his reach.
Just the Mind and Physical Tribulations alone were two major obstacles that blocked countless True Immortals.
After lamenting for a while, the white-browed elder was about to continue speaking when suddenly his expression changed.
"What's that?"
The white-browed elder looked up at the area of the Third Heaven. At this moment, a terrifying fluctuation was traveling through the Third Heaven, spreading to the Second Heaven as if it were the pounding of divine drums, causing ripples in the ocean of clouds in the Second Heaven and creating ripples in space.
"This?" The white-browed elder's expression turned shocked. In the Nine Heavens, a True Immortal powerhouse like him, even if exerting full force, would only affect a range of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of miles at most. But now? Even just the residual waves of power had pierced through to the Second Heaven?
"Is there a Half-Step Immortal King acting in the Third Heaven?" The young man beside him shivered with fear. If it weren't for the protection of the white-browed elder, he would probably be sitting paralyzed on the ground right now.
The residual waves of power from a higher heaven descended like divine might.
"It's not the Third Heaven, it's a higher heaven than the Third Heaven!"
The white-browed elder carefully sensed for a moment, his face slightly pale.
As a peak True Immortal, although he couldn't ascend to the Third Heaven, he could still make judgments about the source of the residual waves of power.
"A higher heaven than the Third Heaven?"
The young man was momentarily confused. Wouldn't that mean...
"An Immortal King, at least a Tribulation Immortal King, is acting."
The white-browed elder said with difficulty. He had another speculation in his heart: being able to extend the residual waves of power to other heavens was something ordinary Immortal Kings couldn't do.
Maybe it was the legendary Supreme Immortal King!!
"In my lifetime, I actually witnessed the hands of a Supreme Immortal King?"
The white-browed elder's mind was stirred. As a peak True Immortal like him, he had traveled through the Three Thousand Dao Provinces over countless ages, with hopes of seeing a Tribulation Immortal King.
But a Supreme Immortal King? That was the supreme powerhouse among Tribulation Immortal Kings. The vast majority of True Immortals would never see one in their entire lives.
Xuan King Domain.
Daoist Immortal Sect.
"Did Patriarch Li send a message to me?" A plain-faced, capable woman's expression changed slightly as she looked towards two peers beside her.
"Patriarch Li?"
"Patriarch Li rarely contacts us unless it's something significant."
"Quickly, let's see. Could it be that something unexpected has happened in the war with the Huai Dragon Palace?"
The two peers realized the seriousness of the situation.
The three of them were the most outstanding among the descendants of 'Jun Xiaoyao' from the beginning. They were Jun Haiqiu, Jun Nangong, and Jun Yunxun.
The Daoist Immortal Sect in the Spirit Realm was relatively powerful, but at least before Jun Dongjin and others ascended, there was no Jun family.
After tens of thousands of years of effort by successive generations of the Jun family and the support of Li Qing, the Jun family finally established itself in the Immortal Sect.
"I'll check it now."
Jun Haiqiu immediately opened the message sent by Li Qing.
After quickly browsing through it.
"Patriarch Li said..." Jun Haiqiu was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to say it.
"Take a look, both of you."
Jun Haiqiu unfolded the message.
Jun Nangong and Jun Yunxun quickly read it.
"One of our ancestors from the Jun family has returned?"
"This ancestor is the youngest son of Jun Dongjin, the founder of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the founder of the martial arts cultivation system?"
Jun Haiqiu and the others were stunned.
Since childhood, they had heard many rumors about this ancestor named 'Wuji.'
It was said that this 'Wuji' ancestor had extraordinary talent and even negotiated with the Cangqing Immortal. The position of the Jun family in the Immortal Sect was basically obtained through the efforts of the Wuji ancestor.
Without the Wuji ancestor, the Jun family would not have the status it has today. Perhaps they couldn't even ascend in the Immortal world.
"Wuji ancestor, back?"
Jun Nangong's face was somewhat excited. It had been tens of thousands of years, and the ancestors of the Jun family had never given up on finding the Wuji ancestor.
Even the Daoist Immortal Sect was searching for him, but there had been no news all along.
Many ancestors of the Jun family even thought that the Wuji ancestor had died long ago. Otherwise, how could there be no news for so many years?
"Let's go."
"Let's go see Wuji ancestor now."
"My father, my mother, my grandfather, my great-grandfather, and the ancestors of my Jun family have all had this desire, and it has finally been realized in us."
Jun Yunxun's mind was also stirred. Li Qing's search for the Wuji ancestor was to find his own master. The Cangqing Immortal's search for the Wuji ancestor was for other purposes.
Only their Jun family's search for the Wuji ancestor was entirely heartfelt. Since the founder Jun Dongjin, the Jun family had never treated finding the Wuji ancestor as anything less than the ultimate goal.
"The Martial Temple is starting to recruit disciples on a large scale?"
"As long as they are human, they can join the Martial Temple?"
"After joining the Martial Temple, one can obtain the martial arts cultivation system's techniques? Even immortal cultivators can join the Martial Temple?"
In the city of Xiaoyao, a message swept through like a hurricane. In the past, the Martial Temple had strict requirements for accepting disciples, but now, they seemed to have relaxed those restrictions.
"Hurry, hurry."
"There are free martial arts techniques being given away."
"It is said that the Seventh Rank of the martial path is no weaker than the Dao Fusion Stage of True Immortality. The martial arts cultivation system must have exceptional qualities."
Figures quickly lined up outside the Martial Temple, quietly discussing.
"Why do you think the Martial Temple is doing this?"
"Not long ago, the three Patriarchs of the Martial Temple returned. Could it be their decision?"
"I don't think so. For such a long time, with the three Patriarchs present, the rules of the Martial Temple have hardly changed. Now, suddenly opening up like this, there must be something we don't know about."
"Who cares, as long as there are martial arts techniques to be given away, it's no loss for me."
Inside the Martial Temple's main hall.
Lin Yuan sat in the main seat, casting a glance that encompassed the entire city of Xiaoyao.
"Master, is it appropriate to open up the martial arts techniques like this?" Li Qing asked respectfully from the side, careful with her words.
"It's fine," Lin Yuan said nonchalantly.
To completely spread the martial arts evolution system in this realm, relying solely on the Martial Temple's limited influence, would take millions of years.
So Lin Yuan decided to open up the martial arts techniques.
Of course, these Martial Temple techniques that were being opened up had been modified by Lin Yuan to provide short-term boosts to one's own strength.
For lower-level cultivators, whether it was immortal cultivation, martial cultivation, or other cultivation systems, what mattered most was short-term effectiveness. Even the Supreme Dao, if one couldn't grasp it, wouldn't bring any improvement and would be meaningless.
As for the consequences of opening up martial arts techniques like this, leading to a mixture of martial cultivators in the future, and even disloyalty to the Martial Temple, Lin Yuan didn't care at all.
In the myriad realms, as long as one embraced the martial path, regardless of their thoughts and intentions, they were all future "ingredients" for the "ultimate leap."
