Chapter 221
🕑 Added 2024-07-08 04:00:20 +0000 UTCNow Lin Yuan's inner world has been formed, and both his physical body and soul have reached perfection.
The only thing hindering Lin Yuan from stepping into the Eighth Rank is his spiritual will.
However, cultivating spiritual will directly is quite difficult.
Originally, Lin Yuan's worst-case scenario was to undergo one or two more transmigrations.
Using the difference in the flow of time between the transmigrated world and the main world to experience a large amount of time and refine his spiritual will.
But now.
Feeling the immense pressure of the powerful spiritual will emanating from the body segment.
Lin Yuan was not surprised but delighted.
This is a place naturally forged for tempering spiritual will.
"While tempering the spiritual will, I will also contemplate that body segment."
Lin Yuan carefully observed the body segment. It was a piece of flesh resembling black jade, with skin of a light black color, revealing some muscles and deep purple blood.
Lin Yuan continued to observe closely. In his line of sight, the body segment began to enlarge, countless runes appearing on the surface of the skin, representing the essence of the paths walked by the mighty. (Mighty = Strongest one = Supreme one = Mighty one, same thing :D)
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan saw runes swirling like a vast sea of smoke.
[Your insight is unrivaled, observing the mysterious body segment, beginning to comprehend the first evolutionary path.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, observing the mysterious body segment, beginning to comprehend the fifth evolutionary path.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, observing the mysterious body segment, beginning to comprehend the twentieth evolutionary path.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, observing the mysterious body segment, beginning to comprehend the fiftieth evolutionary path.]
"So many evolutionary paths?"
Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised. In less than an hour of observation, he saw thousands of evolutionary paths from just a tiny fraction of that body segment.
This is simply unbelievable.
How many evolutionary paths does this body segment contain?
And this is just a remnant. What if it were a complete body?
Half a day later.
Lin Yuan stopped contemplating.
Gao Wufeng and Zuoqiu Guang approached.
"It's incredible," Gao Wufeng shook his head and said, "I have already deduced the beginning of an evolutionary path from this body segment."
"I feel that this evolutionary path is at least Eighth Rank, or even Ninth or Tenth Rank, and it fits me perfectly. Comprehending the beginning was effortless, without any obstacles."
Gao Wufeng's eyes were ablaze.
He even felt that the evolutionary path he comprehended might be the supreme one.
"Me too."
"I feel that some of the evolutionary paths within the body segment are very compatible with me. Those evolutionary paths seem to be waiting specifically for me."
Zuoqiu Guang spoke with equal excitement.
Apart from the two of them, the top of this mountain peak, the other evolvers were all excited, obviously gaining a lot and getting what they wanted.
"Thirteenth Peak Master, what about you?" Gao Wufeng looked at Lin Yuan.
"I also gained something." Lin Yuan's tone was calm, but his eyes revealed a hint of doubt.
Too easy.
It's too easy.
Lin Yuan swept his gaze and found that not only on this mountain peak but also on many other mountain peaks, the evolvers all looked like they had gained a lot.
This is somewhat unbelievable.
Could it be that there is no threshold for comprehension in this body segment?
Moreover, the evolvers who can appear here have a remarkable background and a high vision. The evolutionary paths that excite them are at least Eighth Rank, or even Ninth or Tenth Rank.
Is the quality of the evolutionary paths contained in this body segment so high?
It should be noted that the evolutionary paths recorded by human civilization are vast, but those that can reach Eighth or Tenth Rank are quite rare.
Yet they are easily comprehended from the body segment?
A day later.
Lin Yuan, Gao Wufeng, and Zuoqiu Guang gathered again.
"I have already started practicing," Gao Wufeng said directly, "the more I practice, the less pressure I feel from the will emanating from the body. It seems that the direction I chose is correct."
While observing and comprehending the body segment, one would endure the pressure of the spiritual will emanating from the body.
This is not only felt by Lin Yuan but also by other evolvers.
But after Gao Wufeng's words, it can be concluded that the pressure of spiritual will is not constant; it decreases with the comprehension of evolutionary paths during practice.
"Me too."
Zuoqiu Guang's brow furrowed imperceptibly. She originally thought this was something unique to her.
But now seeing Gao Wufeng also experiencing the same, her thoughts immediately changed.
"Thirteenth Peak Master, which evolutionary path have you chosen to practice?" Gao Wufeng looked at Lin Yuan.
As soon as he said this, Zuoqiu Guang also looked at Lin Yuan.
In terms of talent and aptitude, Lin Yuan definitely surpasses them.
Since even the two of them have comprehended the beginning of some evolutionary paths, Lin Yuan couldn't possibly have gained nothing.
"I'll take another look."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and spoke.
The fact that other evolvers easily comprehended the evolutionary paths made Lin Yuan feel that something was off.
"Another look?" Zuoqiu Guang and Gao Wufeng exchanged glances.
Both were somewhat astonished.
There is only one spot available on the path to becoming the strongest.
At this time, shouldn't you focus on cultivation instead of taking another look?
You should know that those competing for the title of the strongest are not only humans of the same race but also those from other races.
Every second is extremely precious.
Gao Wufeng couldn't help but persuade, "Thirteenth Peak Master, if you don't choose to cultivate a certain evolutionary path, you will constantly endure the suppression from the spiritual will. Under such suppression, even the efficiency of normal cultivation will be greatly reduced, so there is no need for this."
"Thirteenth Peak Master, are you frightened by the warnings at the beginning? Are you afraid to cultivate?"
Zuoqiu Guang said from the side:
"My teacher told me that when you encounter an opportunity, you must seize it. I am very certain that the evolutionary paths we have comprehended now should have some problems. But if there are issues, and you don't move forward, human civilization would probably still on the mother planet."
"Zuoqiu, you make sense, but I still want to take another look." Lin Yuan looked at the two, knowing that they were also considering him, and spoke calmly.
The path to becoming the strongest?
It does indeed appeal to Lin Yuan, but not as much as imagined.
Compared to cultivating the paths to becoming the strongest that others have walked, Lin Yuan would rather extrapolate the martial arts evolutionary path to the level of the strongest.
Moreover, there are too many evolutionary paths contained within that body segment, to the point where Lin Yuan felt a bit overwhelmed and dared not continue cultivating.
Furthermore.
Lin Yuan also did not want to lose the tempering of his spiritual will.
Once choosing to cultivate a certain evolutionary path, the pressure of the spiritual will would decrease or even stop.
For Lin Yuan, the disadvantages outweighed the benefits.
Regardless, the main goal for Lin Yuan at the moment is to raise his spiritual will index to over ten thousand points before stepping into the Eighth Rank.
As for abandoning the martial arts evolutionary path to cultivate an unknown evolutionary path, Lin Yuan didn't have that idea for now.
"Although I don't plan to cultivate the evolutionary paths within that body segment, I can fully comprehend them, analyze them, grasp their subtle rules, integrate them into the martial arts evolutionary path."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
This approach has two benefits.
One is to maintain the pressure of the spiritual will, allowing his spiritual will to be tempered at all times.
The other is to deepen his understanding of the rules and continue to perfect the martial arts evolutionary system.
The evolutionary paths contained within that body segment are likely to have issues, but they certainly also have merits; otherwise, they wouldn't captivate evolvers like Gao Wufeng and Zuoqiu Guang.
As for that path to becoming the strongest, Lin Yuan isn't particularly concerned.
Time passed by.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on the mountaintop, constantly observing the phantom of the body segment under the sky.
Waves of invisible pressure descended, murmurs echoing in Lin Yuan's ears, entering his spiritual will, reverberating in his soul.
Lin Yuan's expression became solemn, his spiritual will enduring tremendous pressure every moment.
It should be noted that the body and soul that appeared in this virtual world are standard First Rank evolvers, relying entirely on their own spiritual will to withstand the pressure.
"It's getting more and more uncomfortable."
Lin Yuan sighed softly.
The invisible pressure of the spiritual will, like countless large hammers, struck his spiritual will and soul from all directions.
But Lin Yuan did not give up. Such a place that directly targets the spiritual will is rare; this is a shortcut to stepping into the Eighth Rank.
In addition to tempering his spiritual will.
Lin Yuan's analysis of the evolutionary paths he comprehended has never stopped.
[Your insight is unrivaled, analyzing the mysterious evolutionary path, feeling the gains and improving.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, analyzing the mysterious evolutionary path, feeling the gains and improving.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, analyzing the mysterious evolutionary path, feeling the gains and improving.]
It must be said.
The body segment is indeed from a powerhouse from outside the main world. The principles and essence of the evolutionary paths they practiced are completely different from those of human civilization's evolutionary paths.
Although they both comprehend the same fundamental rules, human civilization's evolvers comprehend them from one direction.
While the owner of that body segment comprehended them from another direction.
However, the essence is the same, often providing Lin Yuan with great gains.
"So spatial rules can have such explanations?"
"How wonderful, the elucidation of the rules of life is unexpectedly so easy to understand?"
"The rules of the Five Elements."
Lin Yuan absorbed everything like a sponge.
On the top of another mountain peak.
A evolver is also observing the body segment under the sky.
His aura gradually changed, becoming deeper and deeper. It seemed that he was practicing and comprehending the evolutionary paths, and he had already cultivated to a profound level.
"I can feel that the future path is smooth, but why do I always have this feeling?" This evolver is also a talented evolver from a certain star domain, over nine hundred years old, having reached the Seventh Rank and is quite prominent.
After comprehending the evolutionary paths from that body segment, he eagerly began cultivation.
The more he cultivates, the more he feels that he has made the right choice. That body segment seems to have been prepared specifically for him.
However, at this moment, this evolver also has a feeling of dread.
"The evolutionary path I am cultivating seems to have issues. It looks perfect on the surface, but once I started practicing, there is no turning back."
This evolver thought silently in his heart.
"What should I do?"
"Stop practicing?" His brows furrowed.
"Forget it."
"This is an opportunity to become the strongest. Even if there are issues, I must resolve them. I absolutely cannot give up."
The evolver steadied his mind and once again immersed himself in cultivation.
On the mountain peak where Lin Yuan was.
Gao Wufeng suddenly opened his eyes wide, and at this moment, his aura became deep, faintly resembling that of the body segment under the sky.
"I..."
Gao Wufeng opened his mouth, his cultivation was going very smoothly, but recently, he felt somewhat uneasy.
Uneasy?
This kind of emotion that only appears in ordinary people is actually happening to him? It's unbelievable.
"Inner demon." (Heart Demon)
A terrifying thought surfaced in Gao Wufeng's mind.
As a peak-level Seventh Rank King, he knows too well the horror of inner demons, an ordeal that can only be resisted with at least ten thousand spiritual will index.
Now that he has only practiced the evolutionary method within that body segment for a month or two, he has attracted an inner demon?
"No, I can't continue cultivating."
Gao Wufeng swallowed hard. If he continued to cultivate, he might directly face the inner demon's ordeal.
Although as a peak-level Seventh Rank evolver, he would sooner or later face the inner demon's ordeal, at the moment, his spiritual will index is not up to standard. If he encounters the inner demon's ordeal, the chance of survival is very low.
In the sky.
On a high platform.
Several figures stood here, overlooking the many evolvers on the mountain peaks below.
"It's been over a month, it seems someone has found out."
The man who initially revealed his giant figure to remind many evolvers said faintly.
"Most of the evolutionary paths contained within this body segment are wrong, dead ends, absolute dead ends."
The second figure spoke calmly.
This is something that the strongest had discovered early on, so before anyone comprehended them, they specifically issued warnings, prohibiting external real body cultivation and comprehension of the evolutionary paths.
As a result.
Even if the final path leads to a dead end, the collapse and destruction of this virtual world's body are the only consequences, and the real body in the outside world remains intact.
Of course, there are also some dead ends that target the spiritual will, namely the inner demon ordeal, which depends on the choice of the evolver.
If they continue to cultivate and attract the inner demon ordeal, if they cannot overcome it, it will affect the real body in the outside world. But if they do overcome it, they may be able to continue on.
"Although most of the evolutionary paths are wrong, there are still a few that are viable, and even the path to becoming the strongest is hidden among them. It depends on whether they can choose correctly."
The third figure spoke up.
In order to greatly ensure the survival rate of these human genius evolvers, the strongest have made many preparations, even promising to 'resurrect' them.
"I really envy them. Unlike us, our foundations are already established, and even if we want to take a gamble, we don't have this opportunity."
The fourth figure said softly.
Not every evolver has the courage to comprehend that body segment, especially those at the Ninth Rank. They have painstakingly paid the price to reach the Ninth Rank, and their foundations are already established. It's very difficult for them to start over.
Starting from the Sixth Rank, the evolver's soul corresponds to the evolutionary path they practice. At this level, there is still the possibility of changing their own evolutionary path, but it just depends on how much they are willing to pay, and the evolutionary path they change to must be a similar evolutionary path.
But when it comes to the Ninth Rank, it's different.
Even if they change their evolutionary path, they can only switch to specific evolutionary paths.
"Let me see how many people are still cultivating smoothly now."
The man who spoke first began to observe every evolver below.
"Huh!"
When this man's gaze swept over the top of a mountain peak, he showed a surprised expression.
