Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method

[Ding! Achievement 'Rising Fame' unlocked!]

[Reward: Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method!]

The system's notification chimed in Ling Yun's sea of consciousness.

[Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method: Possesses a transcendent conception and a vast system. It refines the origin of mental power and expands the territory of the sea of consciousness, serving as the cornerstone for reaching the highest realm.]

The system's brief introduction contained a power that sent shivers down one's spine.

Increasing mental strength and capacity?

This was practically a treasure every cultivator dreamed of! Especially for him, a Foundation Establishment cultivator in a modern city, its importance was self-evident.

After all, there was no spiritual energy to cultivate in this world, and mental power cultivation didn't require...

"Making a name for myself..." Ling Yun silently recited the system's next stated goal, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes.

From live-streaming games, singing, to magic, he had indeed stirred up waves in multiple circles, his fan count skyrocketing to twenty million, dominating the trending searches.

However, becoming a landmark figure in any vast field still required time and accumulation.

This Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method had arrived at the perfect time!

"Claim reward."

As soon as he spoke, a vast and profound mass of knowledge suddenly appeared in his mind.

Ling Yun didn't hesitate. He calmed his mind and sat down cross-legged.

He sank his consciousness into his sea of consciousness, guiding it along the profound pathways.

Hummm—

Like the first ray of light at the dawn of creation.

His consciousness was no longer a fleeting thought, but transformed into countless fine yet resilient threads of mental power, following the mysterious trajectory outlined by the Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method, slowly circulating and weaving within his sea of consciousness.

Initially, it was like a trickling stream, arduous and slow, each push of his will like chipping away at solid ice.

Gradually, the cultivation method began to flow smoothly.

The threads of mental power were no longer a small stream, but transformed into a surging river, rushing powerfully within its designated "riverbed," scouring the boundaries of his sea of consciousness.

With each cycle, Ling Yun could clearly feel an indescribable sense of "solidification" and "expansion."

Fatigue and distracting thoughts were washed away by this ceaseless torrent of mental power, replaced by an unprecedented clarity, depth, and... vastness!

Myriad rivers returning to the origin!

He felt as if he were at the source of the sea of consciousness, witnessing countless streams of mental power converging from all directions, ultimately returning to one place, forming a boundless, calm, yet terrifyingly powerful sea of consciousness.

His mental power was undergoing a qualitative change, an sublimation!

Foundation Establishment cultivators no longer needed sleep, and now, cultivating this method, he felt time losing all meaning, with every second and every minute bringing progress on a mental level.

Time unknowingly passed until dawn. Ling Yun slowly opened his eyes.

After a night of cultivation, his mind was not only free of fatigue but felt incredibly full and vibrant.

"What a magnificent Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method! Its conception is lofty, directly targeting the origin. It truly lives up to its reputation!"

Ling Yun marveled inwardly. After Foundation Establishment, this was undoubtedly the cultivation method to replace sleep! The value of this achievement reward far exceeded his imagination.

Immediately after, Ling Yun picked up his phone and opened his Douyin backend.

He discovered his follower count had already surpassed 20,000,000+.

Clicking on the trending search list, he saw that most of the current hot topics were related to him.

1. #LingChenAsksForImmortality! His performance has once again reached god-tier! (Explosive)

2. #DivineLing, is it magic or sorcery? (Explosive)

3. #Gained20MillionFollowersInTwoDays What talents does this streamer have? (Hot)

Seeing these classic clickbait titles, Ling Yun couldn't help but laugh.

It also proved a point: people could laugh even when they were speechless.

These titles were truly adept at grabbing attention.

Ling Yun clicked on the trending list and found that the video with the highest views wasn't his own, but an official announcement.

After watching the video, Ling Yun understood the cause of the situation.

Yesterday, after Ling Yun ended his stream, the magic he performed had caused a huge stir online.

Many bloggers, envious of Ling Yun's rapid follower growth, wanted to decipher his magic to gain a piece of the pie.

However, without exception, no one could crack it.

After all, Ling Yun was using his Storage Space; it would be strange if they could decipher it.

Numerous clowns attempted to "decode" it but failed. They then resorted to accusing him of using special effects.

As the number of accusers grew, viewers who hadn't watched the live stream were brainwashed by these people, leading to online abuse directed at Ling Yun.

Just then, Douyin's official response was swift and thunderous. With a firm stance of "permanent ban for spreading rumors" and "lawyer's letter warnings," they crushed this ridiculous farce and issued a stern official announcement.

Ling Yun finished reading and couldn't believe so much had happened overnight. He couldn't help but want to give Douyin's official account a thumbs-up.

He opened the comments section under the official announcement video to see what netizens were saying.

[Damn, it still has to be Divine Ling. He actually has the official backing. Who's going to dare oppose him from now on?]

[I watched Divine Ling's magic yesterday. It was truly like real magic, so it's no wonder so many people slandered him.]

[Upstairs, who exactly is Divine Ling? Can you tag him for me?]

[@Ling Chen Asks for Immortality, it's this all-around streamer. He doesn't just do magic, he also plays games and sings.]

No wonder he gained another 5 million followers overnight. It turned out to be all thanks to those bloggers' slander and the fans promoting him in the video comments.

After understanding the whole situation, Ling Yun didn't know what to do today.

He decided to continue cultivating his Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method.

Time flew by as he cultivated, and suddenly it was 8 PM, Ling Yun's usual streaming time.

Without hesitation, he started his stream.

After four hours of intense matches, Ling Yun's second account had also reached 2400 points in the Peak Tournament, ranking second on the leaderboard.

The fans in his stream were wide-eyed. It was the first time they had seen a match in the top ten of the Peak Tournament look as easy as playing against bots.

"Guys, I won't be able to stream every day from now on. Your streamer still has to go to school."

Ling Yun didn't want to stream daily, so he gave an explanation that even he didn't believe.

After all, Douyin only required him to stream for 30 hours a month, and he had already streamed for nearly 20 hours in the past three days.

[This scummy streamer is getting cocky, too lazy to even stream.]

[Streamer, study hard!]

[I don't know what this streamer is thinking. If I had an account with 20 million followers, why would I still go to school?]

[What if the streamer just really likes studying?]

Seeing the comments start to argue, Ling Yun didn't offer any further explanation.

"Alright guys, I'm ending the stream. I'll be streaming sporadically from now on. Of course, I'll post a video on my Douyin account to notify you before I go live, so if you haven't followed me yet, please hit that follow button. Bye-bye."

With that, Ling Yun ended the stream without waiting for the fans to react.

After ending his stream, Ling Yun, with nothing else to do, began cultivating his Myriad Rivers Return to Origin Method again, just like he did during the day.
