Twentyfold Amplification Reward! Heaven-Defying Comprehension!

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, on killing an Emperor-level Star Beast beyond your level. Reward: Twentyfold Amplification. You have obtained Heaven-Defying Comprehension and Twenty Years of Cultivation!"

"Gasp!"

Hearing the system's rewards, Qin Yang could not help but suck in a cold breath.

Twenty Years of Cultivation was nothing. After all, he had received Sixty Years of Cultivation last time.

Qin Yang could still handle that.

But this Heaven-Defying Comprehension? Just how heaven-defying was it?

Qin Yang was already impatient to try it out.

The next moment, Qin Yang's expression changed slightly as a familiar sensation swiftly washed over him.

He felt a surge of pure energy flood into his body.

Qin Yang hurriedly calmed his mind and focused on refining this power with his full attention.

Driven by that energy, the bottleneck that had held Qin Yang at the Half-Step to the Innate Realm actually began to loosen bit by bit.

Am I about to break through...?

Qin Yang suddenly opened his eyes, his brow tightly furrowed.

He absolutely could not break through inside the library!

Breaking through to the Innate Realm would definitely cause a huge commotion.

Experts were stationed on the library's second and third floors.

Perhaps that mysterious Library Director with Innate Realm cultivation was stationed on the third floor.

If Qin Yang chose to break through in the library, he would definitely expose himself.

An Innate Realm Expert in his teens! Well, that truly would make him an unparalleled genius.

He could even be called a monstrous prodigy!

But the problem was that everyone in the library knew Qin Yang had trash-tier talent.

If he suddenly revealed Innate Realm cultivation...

Well, exposure would not really be a problem.

There were supposedly only three Innate Realm Experts in all of Jianghai City.

If Qin Yang broke through to the Innate Realm, he would become one of the four people standing at the pinnacle of Jianghai City.

Who could do anything to him then? Qin Yang simply wanted to keep a low profile.

Peerless geniuses might enjoy endless glory, but they would definitely be followed by all kinds of troublesome nonsense.

Qin Yang only wanted to stay in the library and take it easy.

This was a Mystical World. The Innate Realm was nothing special; above it lay the Grandmaster Realm, and even stronger existences.

Before gaining invincible strength, Qin Yang had no intention of exposing himself.

He had no ambition to dominate the world. Living a good life was enough for him.

"Xia He, keep an eye on things for me. I'm heading out to buy something."

Forcefully suppressing the True Essence surging within him, Qin Yang called out to Xia He next door before quickly leaving the library.

"What did you say? Hey, why are you running off so fast?"

Xia He, who had been dozing off, was startled awake and looked utterly confused.

"No one should spot me here."

A moment later, Qin Yang appeared in a small grove within a park.

It was just past noon, and hardly anyone came into the park.

"No, I can't hold it in anymore."

Qin Yang's face twisted as if he were constipated. At last, he stopped suppressing the energy in his body.

The next moment, the stagnant energy burst forth like floodwaters breaking through a dam.

"Phew!"

A look of relief appeared on Qin Yang's face.

As the True Essence in his Dantian grew increasingly dense, Qin Yang pressed on in one sustained effort, striking at the Innate Realm bottleneck.

Bang! Before long, a muffled sound rang out from within Qin Yang's body.

Joy appeared on Qin Yang's face.

Innate Realm! Success!

"Hahaha, I'm an Innate Realm Expert now too!"

Qin Yang could not help laughing aloud.

His personality might have been laid-back, and he liked to take things easy.

But breaking through to the Innate Realm was such a wonderful thing that he could not help feeling excited.

Feeling the True Essence surge wildly through his body, Qin Yang moved his thoughts. A wisp of True Essence flowed to his fingertips, then shot out of his body.

Bang! The True Essence struck the nearby tree trunk and pierced straight through it, leaving behind a thumb-sized hole.

True Essence Projection!

Star Warriors who reached the Innate Realm could release the True Essence within their bodies, allowing for long-range attacks.

This was something Acquired Realm martial artists could never match.

Of course, breaking through to the Innate Realm brought more than just that benefit.

Qin Yang suddenly closed his eyes, yet the scenery within a hundred meters was clearly reflected in his mind.

Perception! Upon reaching the Innate Realm, one gained an incredibly terrifying level of perception.

Not even the slightest movement within a hundred meters could escape Qin Yang's senses.

Moreover, once martial artists reached the Innate Realm, their lifespan would increase considerably.

Innate Realm martial artists possessed exceptionally vigorous vitality and could generally live to around one hundred and fifty years old.

"Now I can finally be said to have some ability to protect myself."

The joy on Qin Yang's face was difficult to conceal.

Even if many powerful experts were hidden in this world, the Innate Realm was definitely not weak.

"Oh, right... I nearly forgot there was another reward."

Thinking of the "Heaven-Defying Comprehension" mentioned by the system, Qin Yang hurriedly calmed his mind and sent his consciousness into his sea of consciousness.

The next moment, he saw a hazy gray space within his mind.

As his consciousness entered the space, Qin Yang immediately felt his mind become clear and empty.

When the contents of the Clear Wind Sword Technique flashed through Qin Yang's mind, all kinds of insights immediately surged into his heart.

The Clear Wind Sword Technique, which had only been at the entry level, rapidly increased in proficiency as countless insights into the sword path emerged.

A moment later, Qin Yang's Clear Wind Sword Technique had already reached the minor mastery stage.

Yet it was not over.

Qin Yang immersed his mind in the gray space, continuously absorbing the sword path insights pouring from his mind.

The Clear Wind Sword Technique, which had only just reached minor mastery, rose to another level under the impetus of those insights.

"Buzz!"

As a wisp of breeze drifted past, the sound of a sword cry seemed to ring around Qin Yang.

Faint sword qi emerged from Qin Yang's body and merged into the breeze, drifting unpredictably yet following a discernible pattern.

Suddenly.

Qin Yang abruptly opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing within them.

The Clear Wind Sword Technique had reached major mastery! "Heaven-Defying Comprehension... Enlightenment Space would be a more fitting name."

Recalling the sensation from earlier, Qin Yang's face was filled with amazement.

When his consciousness entered the Enlightenment Space, it was as though he had entered a state of sudden enlightenment.

Whatever he thought of, countless insights would swiftly emerge in his mind.

The Clear Wind Sword Technique, which had only been at the entry level, had actually broken through directly to major mastery in less than half an hour.

Such efficiency was truly heaven-defying!

With this Enlightenment Space, no matter what martial arts he cultivated in the future, he would master and become proficient in them in a short time.

"The library has so many martial arts. Looks like I'll have plenty to learn now."

Thinking of the martial arts in the library, Qin Yang was eager to give it a try.

With the Enlightenment Space, he would easily become one of the Martial Arts Masters, proficient in all kinds of martial arts.

Qin Yang's comprehension had once been limited, so he had not dared to learn too much. After all, biting off more than one could chew only led to poor results.

But now that he had the Enlightenment Space, the more the better.

Well, that was called having more skills than one needed.

Chinese literature truly was profound and vast! "Qin Yang, where the hell did you go?"

When Qin Yang returned to Area 1, Xia He could not help asking.

Qin Yang brushed him off. "Didn't I tell you? I went to buy something."

Xia He looked at his empty hands and asked, "Then where's what you bought?"

"Oh, I forgot."

Xia He: "..."
