Primogenitor's Blood!
Earth, Tianjing City.
Near the lake, a handsome man in white with a smile was sitting there. His eyes, which seemed to contain the Infinite Universe, had no sharpness or ferocity, only a calm and indifferent quality, yet they contained a power that touched people's hearts in silence.
Opposite him sat a young man with icy eyes, exuding a hint of murderous aura. The barely concealed sharpness of that aura was chilling.
"Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you?" Lin Yan asked softly after examining him closely.
Compared to when he first left Earth more than 500 years ago, Lin Xiao has lost his naivety and now possesses only a coldness and an absolutely pure will.
"Dad, you have always taught me to value the cultivation of the mind, but for a long time before, I could only maintain an extremely calm and clear state of mind. I could not truly experience the unwavering will of 'Point Directly to the Original Mind and Clear Mind, See Nature,' let alone the so-called 'Heart of a Child, merging with nature.'"
Lin Xiao frowned slightly. "But now it seems that I have already entered the realm of 'Clear Mind, See Nature'."
"No, it's not just to the extent you're describing." Lin Yan smiled at him.
"Huh?" Lin Xiao was taken aback.
"Your situation in cultivating your mind is somewhat similar to your Uncle Luo's," Lin Yan said. "To be able to refine your mind to such a level, untouched by any dust, unaffected by any temptation, absolutely pure, absolutely repelled, absolutely focused... this is not merely stepping into the realm of 'Point Directly to the Original Mind and Clear Mind, See Nature,' but has already reached an extremely high level!"
He was somewhat surprised.
Long ago, through the description in "The Heavenly Demon Illusion", Lin Yan learned about a completely new supreme realm, which is also the highest self that is different from "id, ego, and superego".
In pursuit of that incomparably mysterious and terrifying realm, Lin Yan sought knowledge diligently and finally managed to grasp the basics, achieving the state of "Unity of Heaven and Man" in the blink of an eye!
When faced with the temptations of the God King Weapon and the "Nine Tribulations Scripture," Lin Yan seemed to undergo a spiritual trial, achieving a kind of essential transformation.
For more than 500 years, he has never stopped honing his will. Although Lin Yan has not yet realized the "Mind Embraces All, which can encompass everything", he can be considered to have achieved perfection in the "Unity of Heaven and Man".
Moreover, he is different from Thunder God.
Lin Yan is pursuing a completely new path to the ultimate state of "freedom". Given time, he may break free from the so-called three levels of self-cultivation!
Perhaps in terms of willpower, he is still far from being as strong as those super-powerful beings in the universe, but in terms of mental state, he has already approached the level of those who are considered the most powerful beings in the universe.
Therefore, it wasn't that difficult for him to figure out Lin Xiao's current situation.
"Point Directly to the Original Mind and Clear Mind, See Nature refers to the interrogation and tempering of one's inner self, and this can take many forms."
Lin Yan smiled slightly, "The Buddhist Chan Master 'Originally there is nothing, so where can dust settle?' and the patriot's 'Since ancient times, who has ever escaped death? Let my loyal heart shine in history' are all examples of this kind of spiritual cultivation."
Lin Xiao seemed to be deep in thought.
Lin Yan said, "This is because the so-called 'cultivation of mind' is closely related to a person's life experiences and emotions. As a martial artist, the hardships, pain, and scenery one faces are far greater than those of others, so one's understanding of this realm must be more thorough."
"A mind as clear as a mirror, untouched by a speck of dust; a mind as sharp as a blade, cutting through all obstacles!"
"By solidifying one's will like a rock and keeping one's heart pure and true, one can resist pressure and illusions and remain untainted."
Lin Xiao pondered for a moment, then his eyes brightened slightly. "I understand now."
"I'm somewhat surprised that you've reached this level," Lin Yan said with some doubt. "Did something happen to you?"
"There's nothing special about it," Lin Xiao said slowly. "After entering the core of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, the 'Glory Secret Realm,' I naturally began to carry out those Cultivation Mission."
"At first, I was given Difficult Level missions like the 'Hell Battlefield,' but then I felt that I was capable enough, so I decided to take on the Desperate Level Mission 'Dead Star'!"
"There, I encountered some dangers, the most dangerous of which was being trapped in an illusion. Although the outside world was only a moment away, in that endless, lonely, and desolate illusion, it felt like I had lived for nearly ten thousand years."
"Oh?" Lin Yan's eyes lit up slightly.
Although it may not seem like a big deal, Lin Yan himself was extremely skilled in illusions, so he naturally understood that this kind of bizarre situation was actually the most dangerous. If one were to fall into the illusion, Will and Consciousness would collapse, one's soul would Destruction, and one would ultimately perish.
However, since Xiao Ge'er was able to overcome this obstacle, he must have gained a lot from it.
He did secretly leave a clone of himself with Lin Xiao, but he didn't usually pay attention to it. He only used it to deal with some extreme situations, mainly to avoid Soul Enslavement. Lin Xiao still had to face those dangers on his own.
After all, there's no fear of any unexpected events. With Superhuman Bloodline, even if something really happens, it would be easy to revive him.
These are just things that can't be talked about.
Lin Xiao continued, "After I passed through the illusion, I also found some skeletons there. They should all be Core Member of the five major forces at the Cosmic level. Some of the corpses were completely decayed, while only one had a collapsed soul and the body showed no signs of corrosion. It looked to be no more than a thousand years old. From some of the items he carried, he was a member of the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company."
Lin Yan blinked.
Um?
It sounds kind of familiar.
He suddenly remembered that during Luo Feng's first Qualification Battle, he had a formidable opponent, the uncrowned king of the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm Cosmic level, "Krofen," who was even stronger than Bolan at the time. Luo Feng might not have been guaranteed to win. However, because he was carrying out Desperate Level Mission during the competition, he eventually lost contact and missed the crucial match.
They are suspected to have perished during a perilous mission.
It seems to be the "Dead Star" of this Glory Secret Realm.
It was during a Cultivation Mission that Krofen discovered a secret and gained a great opportunity. Because he was so enamored with it, he blindly continued to explore the secret even when carrying out Desperate Level Mission, which ultimately led to his death.
"And here, I finally obtained a peculiar inheritance called the 'Xing Guang Divine General Inheritance,' a secret technique that can amplify the body's power, somewhat similar to the 'Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body' that you mentioned to me before, Dad," Lin Xiao said.
Lin Yan couldn't help but laugh.
"Not bad." He patted Lin Xiao's shoulder gently. "You've really impressed me these past few years, but this is just the beginning. You can't slack off in the future either. Our lineage will eventually be handed over to you."
The Xing Guang Divine General Inheritance!
Luo Feng's later achievements were inseparable from the many opportunities he encountered. These opportunities were extremely amazing. On his first Desperate Level Mission, he received the Magic Sound Divine General Inheritance, which was once every ten thousand epochs.
Ironically, this opportunity, which even Feng Wang Immortal God longed for, seemed rather unworthy of mention to him.
If others knew, they might be so angry they'd vomit blood.
Now it seems that my son's fate isn't bad either.
If one possesses excellent talent, willpower, mindset, and circumstances, their future prospects are naturally limitless.
Alas, it's pitiful that he, the Humanity's Strongest Genius, doesn't have such luck and hasn't even encountered a single Divine General inheritance.
His fate was truly terrible!
There's no other choice but to cheat!
"Dad, it's too early for you to say these things now," Lin Xiao shook his head and said. "Besides, I think my younger brother is more intelligent than me, and his talent is no less than mine."
Lin Yan smiled.
Although the strength or weakness of his relatives was not important to him, it would indeed be a very respectable thing if he could truly say, "My son has the appearance of a true god."
He nodded. "Well, Xiaodu is not bad either, but as you know, he's not very interested in fighting or cultivation, he prefers research."
As dusk fell.
Lin Yan opened a door in the villa, from which a faint stream of light instantly poured out. He walked straight in and closed the door.
What appears to be a room of only a few hundred square meters from the outside is actually a massive laboratory covering hundreds of thousands of square meters once you step inside.
This is simply applying the principle of "A World," nothing special.
He walked slowly through the various areas, including the "Mechanical Experiment Area," "Biological Experiment Area," "Energy Area," and "Cultivation Area," which alone contained over ten million different instruments and equipment.
Suddenly, Lin Yan stopped.
In the experimental area, a young man dressed in special work clothes stood in front of the experimental table, using his telekinesis to manipulate the matching of drugs.
"There's only 0.0001 seconds. If you miss it, the 'North Factor' will evaporate." Without the slightest hesitation, the young man continued mixing the potions, sometimes as fast as lightning, sometimes as slow as a breeze. Some of the potions required the addition of "Origin Force" or even "Telekinesis," which is why pharmacists' "potions" were something that ordinary people dared not mess around with.
Because they didn't understand this industry, they used the drugs and accidentally got infected themselves.
"Laugh!"
Suddenly, a silvery light appeared in the air ahead, which gradually faded until it became colorless. At the same time, a clear, mercury-like liquid rippled in a transparent glass test tube placed on the lab table.
"Finally, success!" The young man reached out and picked up the glass test tube, which shimmered with captivating colors under the light.
He turned around.
"Dad!" The mask on his head automatically lifted, revealing a pair of bright, shining eyes.
"I'm quite lucky to have witnessed your success directly." Lin Yan stepped forward and smiled. "It seems like you've been using 'Fish Crystal Mother Liquid' as the basic raw material to prepare this Fish Crystal Type IV Potion for quite some time now."
"Yes, including the experiments in the Virtual Universe, I failed a total of 48,743 times, but I finally succeeded," the young man said happily.
48,743 times!
This Fish Crystal Type IV Potion is a potion that Lin Du developed himself. He succeeded in developing it once by accident. After being absorbed by the body, it will stimulate the growth of physical strength and penetrate into the brain nerves, accelerating the generation of mental power in the sea of consciousness.
It is a potion that can temporarily enhance strength and recovery by 50%. After the effects wear off, it will only temporarily reduce strength, without any other side effects, and may even have some benefits to the body.
It can be used before breaking through to the Domain Lord level, only the dosage will differ.
It must be said that Lin Du truly possesses all the qualities to become a powerful pharmacist.
He was born into a good family, which provided him with the capital for research and creation, both in terms of knowledge and materials. He was also intelligent enough, with an extremely terrifying 100% innate Brain Domain Width. With just a little bit of cultivation, he could perfectly control his own mental power.
Extremely calm yet extremely passionate, able to easily endure the tedium of repeated failures during research.
If Lin Yan were to give his opinion, he felt that if Lin Du could truly obtain the ancient inheritance of "pharmacists," his future achievements might not necessarily be inferior to those of his elder brother.
"What about that research topic you've been working on?" he asked Lin Du with a smile.
Upon hearing Lin Yan's words, Lin Du's eyes lit up with excitement, and he said, "Dad, there are some things I need your advice on."
He led Lin Yan to the cultivation area.
Call!
Inside a massive, transparent incubator spanning thousands of kilometers, long black vines spread out in all directions, resembling twisted demonic dragons. Surprisingly, however, dazzling golden runes shimmered on the vines.
Lin Du first checked the various data indicators on the screen, and then started clicking on the control panel. The next moment, a purple Mechanical Puppet appeared inside the incubator. Even though it was a Mechanical Puppet used to assist in the experiment, it was forged from F8-level Purple Bing Iron Mother and possessed the strength of World Lord peak.
Wow!
The Mechanical Puppet held a bottle of golden potion, which was instantly swallowed by the Black Vine. After a short while, a light blue mist began to be injected into the incubator, which was also absorbed by the vines, although the absorption rate was slightly slower.
Boom!
Golden light flowed like lightning across the thick vines, which themselves resembled a heart, sometimes expanding and sometimes contracting. Each expansion was greater than the contraction, causing the black vines to grow larger and larger.
Inside the incubator.
The black vines are undergoing a dramatic transformation, much like boiling water. Golden bumps have appeared on the surface of the already incredibly thick vines. Some of the gold is absorbed and the bumps disappear, while others burst open like bubbles exploding.
"Hiss..."
Numerous vines and vines also danced wildly.
The Golden Secret Patterns continued to seep into the black vine, subtly causing a special change. The vine kept breaking, and bright red blood flowed from the broken wounds. Then, it showed amazing cell activity and healed rapidly.
The originally black vines seemed to have been subtly covered with a thin layer of gold.
"Dad, this is a special Plant Lifeform that I created based on the 'Blood Devouring Vine'. It seems that it will be fully successful in a few years. What do you think?" Lin Du asked with a smile.
Lin Yan observed carefully for a moment, then laughed and said, "I clearly asked you to help me cultivate new rare tea trees with your mother, but instead you've been studying these things."
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
This kid does have some wildly imaginative ideas. Even though he's only at the Cosmic level, he's able to create Special Potion and even cultivate special Plant Lifeform forms based on his own conjectures.
This is precisely what makes a "pharmacist" special.
Take the Thousand Vine Star Eater Grass as an example. As Plant Lifeform, it is impossible to reach the level of the Thousand Vine Star Eater Grass by relying on normal growth. It is precisely because the pharmacists researched and perfected new evolution schemes, and through the continuous improvement by pharmacists of all generations, that we have the so-called best evolution scheme.
"This little guy is really impressive to have achieved this so early," Lin Yan thought to himself.
The Blood Devouring Vine itself is not a particularly remarkable Plant Lifeform, and its combat power is not strong. However, it has an extremely tenacious vitality, excellent camouflage ability, and can absorb the blood of Flesh-type to enhance its strength, which is somewhat commendable.
Now, thanks to Lin Du's brand-new renovation plan, it clearly shows greater potential.
This is no simple matter; it cannot be accomplished by chance. It requires him to have an absolute understanding of various substances and even the life characteristics of the Blood Devouring Vine before he can attempt it.
"Cultivating tea trees is easy enough with Mom," Lin Du smiled, then looked at the Blood Devouring Vine in the cultivation box with bright eyes. "I'm still more interested in these things."
"Whatever you want," Lin Yan said with a smile.
Anyway, he's a big and powerful man who can drink Loch God Water like water, so why would he be afraid of this young master causing trouble?
"Dad, I have some questions that I don't quite understand, and I need to ask you for your guidance." Lin Du looked at Lin Yan.
"Okay." Lin Yan nodded. "Go ahead and tell me."
The toxin of the Green Line Devouring Worm is like a special secret technique that combines the Law Comprehension with certain principles of pharmacology. Lin Yan is naturally very knowledgeable about it, but he specializes more in toxins. In some aspects, it is not difficult for him to answer Lin Du's questions.
"Green Line Devouring Worm..."
He thought to himself, "It's been so many years. When will I finally find a suitable target for this last chance?"
More than two months later.
Mu Xing Universe Country, Lingdi Secret Realm, Biting Star Belt.
"Boom..."
Above the boundless void, the emerald green lightning seemed endless, and the Green Line Devouring Worm, like a pillar of heaven, floated in the lightning, with four pairs of Blade Wings vibrating at a high frequency on its back, and a hint of madness in its three pairs of eyes.
Around it, countless Zerg swarmed, nearly a million World Lord peak Zerg exuding a chilling aura.
Buzz...
Nearly a million Zerg King extended their claws, from which dazzling beams of light shot out. These million World Lord peak Zerg warriors seemed to be of one mind, each beam of light representing the full power of the Zerg King. The combined strength of nearly a million Zerg King was enough to make any Feng Wang expert change color.
A million beams of light!
It pierced through the sky in an instant, converging at a single point in the distance!
Incredibly precise!
Not a single beam of light was off; they all converged precisely at that one point. Even if a million human World Master trained tens of millions of times, they would not be able to succeed even once!
At the same moment on Earth, in the Chaos City of the Initial Universe, Lin Yan and his Xue Qiao Clone opened their eyes simultaneously, their eyes filled with shock.
"I can't believe I've actually encountered something like this!"
"Could it be because..."
He looked thoughtful.
At that moment, a brand new message appeared on the system.
[A vital opportunity has been discovered: the blood of the true god "Origin"! Do you know the details?]
[Whether]
