Chapter 216
🕑 Added 2024-07-03 04:00:01 +0000 UTCRed Kun Main Star, Central Continent.
Thirteenth Peak.
From the outside, this peak appeared no different from usual.
However, in reality, this area had long been isolated by the Red Kun Star Lord through some means, separated from the original Red Kun Main Star.
With the Red Kun Star Lord's strength, these actions didn't draw the attention of any evolvers on the main star.
Moreover, all evolvers within the isolated area had fallen into a deep sleep, unable to perceive the vast changes in the outside world.
Boom!
The surging force of the world and the fluctuations of spatial power continued unabated.
The immense world shadow continued to expand rapidly, showing no sign of stopping even after surpassing a hundred thousand miles.
Alone in the void, the Red Kun Star Lord silently watched the world shadow above.
Exaggerated.
It was truly exaggerated.
The Red Kun Star Lord had already held Lin Yuan in high regard.
He thought that his talented disciple might be able to reach three to five miles in diameter before reaching the pinnacle of the seventh rank.
But in reality? The world shadow now approached nearly a hundred and ten thousand miles.
How many times greater was this than before? A world with a diameter of a hundred and ten thousand miles was nothing to the Red Kun Star Lord.
The Star Sea Kun, a favored child of the universe, nurtured a small world upon birth and easily reached dozens of miles upon reaching adulthood at the sixth rank.
Upon reaching the seventh rank, the internal world directly reached tens of thousands of miles.
Upon entering the eighth rank, the Red Kun Star Lord's internal world surpassed a million miles.
But this was the Star Sea Kun, the 'darling' of the cosmic space's source, born with a small world. This was a talent inherent to themselves.
But Lin Yuan? Just a human, he managed to nurture an internal world of over a hundred thousand miles at the seventh rank. This was simply... The Red Kun Star Lord's thoughts surged.
Were you a Star Sea Kun, or was I?
"The size of the internal world mainly depends on the understanding of spatial rules," the Red Kun Star Lord thought to himself.
Star Sea Kuns carried an internal world because, upon birth, these special creatures had already grasped the basics of spatial rules, having understood nine hundred and sixty-five basic spatial models.
In addition, some core spatial models were on the verge of being understood, giving them a huge advantage as 'darlings' of the cosmic space's source.
Even with cosmic treasures like the 'Worldly Fruit,' forcibly creating an internal world would result in a world of only a few hundred to a few thousand miles at most.
To continue expanding the internal world afterward, one had to enhance their understanding of spatial rules.
Lin Yuan's internal world was now at least over a hundred thousand miles, something that no cosmic treasure could achieve. It could only be accomplished through one's own accumulation in understanding spatial rules.
"A world with a diameter of a hundred thousand miles would require understanding of at least a thousand core spatial models. My disciple, Lin Yuan, just grasped the basic spatial models not long ago."
The Red Kun Star Lord suddenly felt powerless.
Lin Yuan's talent and insight were simply terrifying. How long had it been since he achieved such a feat in the core spatial models?
"Before the age of a hundred, Understanding a thousand core spatial models is something only a small number of people in the entire universe human alliance can achieve," the Red Kun Star Lord thought to himself.
"If starting from scratch, without relying on any external objects..."
"I'm afraid there's hardly any genius among today's evolvers who can compare to my disciple," the Red Kun Star Lord silently pondered.
"The expansion speed of the world shadow has slowed down," the Red Kun Star Lord breathed a sigh of relief. A world with a diameter of over a hundred thousand miles was almost approaching the internal world of an evolver at the pinnacle of the eighth rank.
In the depths of the hall.
With every breath Lin Yuan took, the force of the world overflowed.
"It finally stopped," Lin Yuan's consciousness stood in his internal world, looking at the world with a diameter of nearly a hundred and twenty thousand miles, a smile on his face.
Compared to the previous world with a diameter of only ten miles, the internal world with a diameter of nearly a hundred and twenty thousand miles now was equivalent to more than a dozen Canglan Stars.
"I can feel that the internal world can continue to expand a bit more, but due to the limitations of the physical body and soul, it has stopped at a hundred and twenty thousand miles," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
The size of an evolver's internal world mainly depended on two factors.
One was the evolver's physical body and soul, which formed the foundation for carrying the internal world. If the physical body and soul were too weak, even with a high understanding of space, the internal world wouldn't grow much.
The martial path Lin Yuan cultivated emphasized the physical body, and with his soul transformed into a primordial spirit, it was equally strong, which allowed him to carry an internal world with a diameter of a hundred and twenty thousand miles.
The second factor was the understanding of space.
Now, Lin Yuan clearly felt that his understanding of space exceeded the limits of his physical body.
"Doesn't have much of an impact."
"With such a vast internal world, the world power nurtured within it almost strengthens my physical body and soul every moment," Lin Yuan closed his eyes, feeling the world power flowing like a stream, nourishing his physical body and soul along his limbs and bones.
"I am currently at the seventh rank King level, but with such a huge internal world, ordinary eighth-rank evolvers would be no match for me," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Even if they reached the eighth rank and understood many techniques belonging to eighth-rank evolvers, Lin Yuan's internal world was too vast, the world power surging, using brute force instead of skill, unless facing someone with a similar internal world, others would only be able to flee when facing Lin Yuan.
"Next, it's time to try to break through the eighth rank."
"Before that, I should strengthen my own mental will as much as possible, to better face the 'Trial of the Heart Demon.'"
Lin Yuan's goal was obvious. With his current foundation, if not for the 'Trial of the Heart Demon,' he could easily break through now.
"To strengthen mental will, the common way in human civilization is to experience more, to live on."
"But this is just the common way. There are many other methods to enhance the strength of mental will."
Although Lin Yuan had found a clever way to pass the 'Trial of the Heart Demon' using the Gate to the Myriad Realms, but this method was not foolproof. Lin Yuan would only attempt it when he was confident of passing the Trial of the Heart Demon.
Casual attempts? Without preparation, to face the Trial of the Heart Demon, if the Gate to the Myriad Realms couldn't isolate the 'Heart Demon,' wouldn't it be seeking death? How to pass the 'Trial of the Heart Demon' was the most crucial aspect for human evolvers.
Once the 'Trial of the Heart Demon' failed, it would be death without a doubt, not even 'resurrection' would be possible.
Because the essence of the 'Trial of the Heart Demon' came from one's own mind. Even if the strongest intervened and forcibly resurrected someone, they would still be in a state of facing the 'Trial of the Heart Demon.'
At that time, they would still die. Because they couldn't pass.
In front of one's own 'Heart Demon,' even the offspring of the strongest were equal to all living beings.
"That's about it."
"It's time to go out and meet the teacher."
Lin Yuan had long sensed that the external space had been completely isolated from normal space, probably by the Red Kun Star Lord to conceal the expansion of his internal world.
Lin Yuan had asked the Red Kun Star Lord for help in concealing it, because even a seventh-rank internal world was astonishing enough when placed outside.
Moreover, the fluctuations in Lin Yuan's internal world just now were far from simple.
So it was better to conceal it.
There was no choice, the encounters on the battlefield of different races before had made Lin Yuan cautious.
If it were an ordinary breakthrough, even if he reached the eighth rank, Lin Yuan wouldn't be so cautious, but having a internal world of over a hundred thousand miles at the seventh rank was indeed somewhat unbelievable.
Stepping out of the hall.
Lin Yuan saw that the Red Kun Star Lord had been waiting for a long time.
"Is everything alright?" The Red Kun Star Lord gazed at Lin Yuan, asking.
"Everything's fine," Lin Yuan nodded.
"My good disciple, you really surprised me," the Red Kun Star Lord shook his head, full of emotion.
"How far have you reached in your understanding of the core spatial models?" The Red Kun Star Lord continued to ask.
"Core spatial models," Lin Yuan knew he couldn't hide it from the Red Kun Star Lord and answered truthfully, "Not even twelve hundred types, I guess."
In fact, if it weren't for the last two hundred years in the Azure World, where Lin Yuan gave up comprehending spatial rules, he estimated that he would have understood about fifteen hundred core spatial models by now.
"Not even twelve hundred," the Red Kun Star Lord sighed.
Why did this sound so disappointing?
"Teacher, I recently discovered that the further I go, the slower the comprehension speed of the core spatial models becomes, and the more times I encounter bottlenecks," Lin Yuan immediately said.
The Red Kun Star Lord fell silent.
"This is normal," the Red Kun Star Lord couldn't help but say.
"You are able to comprehend twelve hundred core spatial models at this age, which is already rare. It's extremely rare."
The Red Kun Star Lord said in a low voice, "If it weren't for the confirmation of the three goddesses, I would doubt whether you were possessed by a strong outsider."
Lin Yuan smiled, "Possessed?"
That's right, like the Red Kun Star Lord could possess the Star Sea Kun, other outsiders could naturally possess human evolvers.
However, Lin Yuan's soul, confirmed by the three goddesses multiple times, undoubtedly belonged to humans, not other outsiders.
"Your talent and insight are too strong," the Red Kun Star Lord finally said what was on his mind.
All along, the Red Kun Star Lord had heard others describe Lin Yuan like this. After all, with the Star Sea Kun as his main body, the Red Kun Star Lord's understanding of spatial rules had always been far ahead of others.
"I may be lucky," Lin Yuan said.
"Luck can always be good?" the Red Kun Star Lord shook his head.
"However, now that you have opened up your internal world, the focus next should be on your mental will," the Red Kun Star Lord's expression became slightly serious.
The more Lin Yuan, a top-tier genius evolver like this, was more likely to stumble in his mental will, in the 'Trial of the Heart Demon.'
Because of the smoothness in the early stages, without any setbacks, there's an unconscious feeling that the Trial of the Heart Demon is just a formality.
After all, from the seventh to the eighth rank, opening up the internal world is recognized as the most difficult, and as for the Trial of the Heart Demon, even the most ordinary evolvers have a chance to pass it.
However, once this thought arises, there may be problems.
In the millions of years of Star Sea history, there have been countless genius evolvers who failed in the Trial of the Heart Demon.
"I understand," Lin Yuan nodded. He had never underestimated the Trial of the Heart Demon.
"Although mental will is difficult to measure, we humans have summarized a set of standards for estimating mental will, which I will give you later," the Red Kun Star Lord spoke.
This set of standards, even in the Human Civilization Alliance, is considered 'top secret,' because it's easy for other races to use it.
So only the Red Kun Star Lord, as a Lord of the star domain, knows the specifics. Lin Yuan couldn't even find it in the virtual network or the Red Kun Vault.
After seeing off the Red Kun Star Lord, Lin Yuan returned to the main hall once again.
"Internal world."
Lin Yuan was familiarizing himself with the power of internal time, after all, with an internal world that had exploded to a radius of 120,000 miles, it was filled with immense world power.
"Hmm?"
"Someone is looking for me?"
Lin Yuan opened his eyes and activated the virtual panel.
"Shi Feng?"
Lin Yuan connected his consciousness to the virtual world.
Soon, an old man with a red nose walked out.
It was a good friend Lin Yuan had met in the circle of virtual world founders.
Shi Feng.
During the Star Alliance conference, Shi Feng had facilitated the trade of voting rights for him.
"Hahaha, Brother Thirteen, the Star Alliance conference is about to be held, remember to attend," Shi Feng said with a laugh.
"That's natural," Lin Yuan nodded.
He had received benefits from the Moonwatch Star Domain, so he wouldn't forget.
As for the threat from Jin Tianzhao in the Golden Dragon Star Domain, Lin Yuan didn't even care.
Let alone Jin Tianzhao, even the Lord of the Golden Dragon Star Domain wouldn't dare to make a move against a sixth-rank citizen.
Lin Yuan chatted with Shi Feng for a while.
Then he disconnected from the virtual world and returned to reality with his consciousness.
"Speaking of which, my contribution points are enough to promote to a seventh-rank citizen," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
To go from a sixth-rank citizen to a seventh-rank citizen, it requires two million contribution points.
Originally, Lin Yuan thought this was an unattainable goal, at least it would take several crossings to accumulate enough.
But with just one transmigration, uploading the seventh-rank chapter, he received a reward of three million contribution points.
The main reason was that the seventh-rank chapter involved opening up the internal world, and it was highly praised by the three goddesses.
"Promote."
Lin Yuan's mind moved slightly.
In an instant, the over three million contribution points in Lin Yuan's account decreased by two million.
At the same time.
Lin Yuan's citizen level changed from the original sixth rank to the seventh rank.
"Seventh-rank citizen!!"
Lin Yuan's spirit shook slightly. It's worth noting that the citizen level of ordinary eighth-rank evolvers hadn't reached the seventh rank, and contribution points weren't easy to accumulate.
Before Lin Yuan could think further, emails from the Central Star Domain began to arrive, introducing many privileges of seventh-rank citizens.
