A miniature Cosmic Clam, Nine-Seal Vast Cosmos
After his soul comprehension reached the True Source Realm, Lin Yi didn't rush to immediately raise his energy level to the True Source Realm.
Because the large internal universe that evolves from the Cosmic Source Realm to the True Source Realm will transform into the Chaotic Origin Universe, expanding by a factor of ten.
Such a fundamental upheaval must be communicated to the inhabitants of the Divine Kingdom within the body so they can prepare; otherwise, trouble may easily ensue.
"Xuanji," Lin Yi thought to himself.
"Master," Xuanji responded immediately.
"I have just reached the True Source Realm in my soul comprehension. My Divine Kingdom within my body will begin to expand and transform in 500 standard years, increasing in size tenfold and gradually transforming into a chaotic origin universe. Notify all residents to prepare and execute the emergency plan."
"Congratulations, Master," Xuanji said happily. "I will immediately send a global announcement and activate the Divine Kingdom Management Plan. All residential units, resource points, and facilities will be put into emergency readiness."
Although Xuanji's voice was cheerful, Lin Yi could still sense that his Intelligent Life, which had been with him since Blue Star, was somewhat concerned about not being able to accompany him on his exploration of the Chaos Cosmic Sea.
However, there was nothing that could be done about it. Although he had evolved Xuanji into Venerable Lord Rank Intelligent Life before leaving the Origin Universe, the equipment that allowed Intelligent Life to live in the Chaos Cosmic Sea for a long time could only be purchased in Mist Sea City.
Therefore, Xuanji can only focus on managing the Divine Kingdom within her body at present.
"Once we arrive in Mist Sea City, I'll buy the smart devices as soon as possible," Lin Yi reassured him.
"Thank you, Master." Xuanji immediately cheered, "The announcement has been drafted and sent across the entire region."
Lin Yi nodded slightly, then said no more. He calmed his mind and began to adjust his state, accumulating strength for expansion five hundred years later.
Meanwhile, within the Divine Kingdom of his body...
With each new mastery of the Origin Law, his Divine Kingdom has expanded to an immense size, comparable to a real ring universe in the Origin Universe, where galaxies flow and countless lives thrive.
Nearly 40% of the Human Race.
Another 50% resides within the Divine Kingdom of the Eternal Beginning Dominator, while the remaining 10% is with another powerful being who received the mark, a former top-tier Venerable who has now broken through to the Ruler level: Kuiya.
Beyond the Silver Blue Star lies the Star Abyss Hall.
As his homeland, Lin Yi moved the entire Silver Blue Star System into his Divine Kingdom. Now, this magnificent palace, suspended in the starry sky, is the core hub of the Divine Kingdom.
The hall was spacious, filled with energy like mist, and hundreds of powerful Venerables were cultivating diligently in their respective meditation rooms.
The Venerable Xuchen sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his body surrounded by illusory images of stars rising and falling. The Zhenyu was as imposing as a mountain, his aura deep and heavy. Intricate three-dimensional runes floated before the Xuan Yan, who lightly tapped his fingers, deducing the changes in the Origin Law.
Meanwhile, in another quiet room, Qianhuan, who had just become the Venerable Lord, was surrounded by Thousand Illusions light and shadow as he adapted to a higher level of power.
As for Aurelia, after more than twenty Epoch of arduous cultivation with very limited progress, she resolutely refused to accept those auxiliary resources anymore and devoted all her energy to managing the Divine Kingdom. As the mistress of the kingdom, she cooperated with Xuanji to manage the Divine Kingdom in an orderly manner.
On this day, suddenly, all the powerful figures Time Stop.
A global announcement appeared simultaneously on the information terminals of every living being in the Divine Kingdom.
[Global Announcement: Divine Kingdom Expansion Plan Activated.]
[Announcement from: Divine Kingdom Management Center - Xuanji]
[Content: According to the highest directive, the Divine Kingdom will undergo structural expansion five hundred years from now, with a base increase in size of tenfold. This expansion will be accompanied by an energy level leap. The <Divine Kingdom Expansion Emergency Plan> is now activated. All residents and management organizations are requested to complete preparations within five hundred years according to the plan's guidelines.]
[Important Notes: 1. All buildings must be demolished for material recycling. 2. Important resource points must be harvested or completely protected. 3. Residents below the Star Vortex level must return to the miniature planetary space and activate the internal protection system. 4. Continuous regular fluctuations and energy turbulence are expected during the expansion; please be prepared to respond.]
[Repeating: The countdown to the 500-year standard year begins now.]
This announcement is now complete.
Aurelia didn't think much of it; after all, nothing was surprising to Lin Yi. What she needed to do now was to prepare.
But Star Abyss Hall, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The expressions on the faces of the several Venerable Lord Rank experts did not change drastically, but a trace of shock flashed deep in their eyes.
Xuchen slowly exhaled, Zhenyu's thick eyebrows raised almost imperceptibly, the illusory runes floating in front of Xuan Yan were slightly disordered for a moment, then immediately returned to stability, and the hazy light and shadow around Venerable Thousand Illusions froze for a moment.
These familiar lords, who were also part of the core management of the Divine Kingdom, quickly gathered together.
"It's been expanded again? We just expanded it last time." Prison Suppressor spoke first.
"Have you noticed?" Xuan Yan said slowly, "The scale has increased tenfold."
Xuchen raised his hand, gently rubbed his temples, and then looked at the others.
"About twenty Epoch ago, during that large-scale expansion, Star Abyss told us that we had broken through to the Supreme level, and we even held a celebration afterward." He paused. "At the time, we lamented that it was a pity the Origin Universe no longer existed; otherwise, with Star Abyss's Supreme status, our Human Race would have been fully qualified to join the ranks of the fourth pinnacle race."
He shook his head and sighed, "Back then, the expansion was less than five times, but this time it's ten times! You should understand what that means."
Silence returned to the hall.
They certainly understood.
For beings with such long lifespans, twenty-odd Epoch is not a particularly long period of time.
But in this "short" time, the being who led them had already stepped from the Supreme Being to something beyond the Supreme Being.
True Source Realm.
Lin Yi had briefly mentioned some basic information about the Chaos Tribunal Sea to them, including the existence of the True Source Realm.
As for those clansmen at the god level and below, apart from close relatives and friends like Aurelia, they currently know nothing about them except the name "above the Supreme is the True Source Realm".
Lin Yi believes that it's pointless for them to know; it would only cause them more trouble.
"True Source Realm..."
"According to the information my junior brother previously revealed, those at the True Source Realm are qualified to purchase the Cosmic Clam," the Thousand Illusions Venerable Lord softly repeated, the light and shadow around her rippling slightly, revealing the fluctuations in her emotions.
Upon hearing the words "Cosmic Clam," a glint of light appeared in the eyes of the several venerable masters.
Although the exact price is still unknown, it is at least a glimmer of hope, a hope that the entire race can find a long-term and stable place to live in the Chaos Tribunal Sea.
An excited feeling flowed silently, but it was quickly suppressed.
They are all strong individuals who have weathered countless storms and held sway over their respective regions, and they know that emotions are of no use.
"Five hundred years is not a long time." The Xuan Yan was the first to regain his composure. The runes before him rapidly changed, switching to a panoramic view of the Divine Kingdom and a resource distribution map. "Lady Aurelia alone cannot handle this. According to the plan, we need to coordinate the demolition of all unnecessary buildings and the recovery of materials; carry out protective harvesting or overall relocation of 372 key resources; coordinate the entry of all residents below the Star Vortex level into the miniature planetary space, and ensure the flawless operation of their internal life support and protection systems."
"Brother Xuchen, you are responsible for coordinating the temporary residence of the various Human Race lords and their forces. Prison Suppressor, you are in charge of the protection and relocation of important Resource Star, which requires mobilizing a large number of earth and metal element law gods. Thousand Illusions, you will assist me in overall scheduling and progress monitoring."
"Okay." Xuchen nodded immediately.
"Leave it to me," Prison Suppressor replied in a deep voice.
The light and shadow around Thousand Illusions solidified. "Understood."
As commands were issued through the Divine Kingdom's management network, the vast inner Divine Kingdom, like a sophisticated machine, began to operate efficiently.
Everywhere in the Divine Kingdom.
Upon receiving the notification, powerful figures and ordinary residents of various races reacted in different ways, but all began to act swiftly under the organization of the management system.
On a verdant, life-bearing planet, amidst beautiful mountains and rivers, two Human Race floated in the air.
One of the wood-elemental deities, clad in a green robe, looked down at the bustling city and said to another deity beside him, "Let's begin. It's time to tear it down and rebuild again."
"Haha, this is great news! This will create even more living space. I wish we could keep tearing it down and rebuilding like this forever," another person replied with a laugh.
As the two chatted idly, their hands moved with surprising speed. With a flick of their sleeves, countless green light spots scattered. In the city below, the buildings formed by the catalytic growth of plants began to decompose on their own, turning into the purest wood-based materials, which were then systematically gathered together.
In another mineral-rich star belt, the earth and metal deities joined forces to carry out their work.
The entire precious mineral vein was slowly peeled away by powerful laws, and then, enveloped in rays of divine light, began to shrink.
It solidified and finally transformed into a miniature star shimmering with metallic luster, which was then captured by the giant hand that reached out from the Zhenyu.
In the starry sky, palaces, fortresses, and cultivation towers of various styles disintegrated one after another under the control of their masters or with the assistance of gods.
The materials were sorted and stored away; these will form the foundation for future reconstruction.
No one complained; all the powerful Human Race who temporarily resided here understood that this was for a brighter future for their race.
Time flew by amidst the busy preparations.
Four hundred years have passed, and the non-essential buildings within the Divine Kingdom have been largely demolished, with resource harvesting and conservation efforts nearing completion.
In the 480th year, all inhabitants below the Star Vortex level returned to the miniature planetary space.
At the same time, all its protective measures were activated, and the surface light cover lit up steadily, like a string of blue stars in the night sky.
In the 495th year, the last batch of precious, immovable resources were personally protected by multiple layers of seals placed by the Xuan Yan.
Star Abyss Hall, on the light screen in front of Aurelia, the status of all preparations was displayed as green "Ready".
She looked at the group of venerable masters beside her and nodded.
"Xuanji, preparations for the expansion of the Divine Kingdom are complete."
Chaos Cosmic Sea, Bloodrage-class Assault Ship, Meditation Chamber.
At the very moment the five hundred-year period was about to end, Lin Yi received a telepathic message from Xuanji.
"Master, all preparations within the Divine Kingdom are complete. All residents have moved into their designated positions or are in protective gear. All vital resources have been secured. All non-permanent structures have been demolished."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi nodded slowly.
"Start."
He focused his mind into the core of the universe within his body, and the already incredibly stable boundary of the universe began to grow outward under the influence of higher-level Chaos Rules.
This growth is not a simple stretching of space, but a derivation and reconstruction of the basic structure of the universe, a superposition and expansion of dimensional levels.
A tenfold increase in scale signifies not only an expansion in spatial volume, but also a leap in the upper limit of energy capacity.
Lin Yi's body acted like a highly efficient converter, accelerating the absorption of chaotic energy from the surrounding environment.
These terrifying energies, capable of instantly annihilating Eternal Divinity, were forcibly absorbed and tamed by his True Source Realm cultivation. They were then diluted and transformed into relatively mild but higher-level chaotic source energy, which was continuously injected into his expanding inner universe.
The Divine Kingdom within the body.
All the powerful beings suspended in the starry sky, whether they were Star Domain level, God level, or Venerable Lords like Xuchen, clearly sensed the change.
First, there's the pervasive vibration.
This is not a physical shaking, but a subtle tremor produced by the space itself and the foundation of its rules as they "grow," as if the entire world is stretching its muscles and bones.
Following this is a significant increase in energy level.
The already abundant Divine Kingdom energy began to thicken at a steady and firm pace.
Wisps of pale gray energy began to mix in, which was diluted chaotic source energy.
The starry sky is slowly expanding, the distance between the stars is widening, but the starlight is becoming brighter.
The land is expanding, the ocean is widening, and even some remote areas that were once devoid of energy are now filled with abundant energy.
The miniature planetary space, inhabited by ordinary residents, has a gently rippling Blue Barrier on its surface, filtering out external impacts to a minimum.
A gentle notification sounded from inside the space, "Expansion process has begun. Current fluctuation level: Level 1. There may be occasional turbulence, but it will not affect daily life."
Residents felt a slight but persistent swaying sensation, as if they were on a giant ship sailing on a calm sea.
Expansion and renovation are ongoing.
Lin Yi precisely controlled the absorption and transformation speed of the chaotic energy, ensuring that his inner universe received enough nutrients to complete its transformation, while also preventing the energy from becoming too violent and damaging the internal structure.
It's a delicate balance.
Time passed little by little.
The energy abundance of the internal universe is steadily increasing.
Previously, the concentration of the Divine Kingdom energy within Lin Yi's body was roughly equivalent to a level 3 source energy region in the Chaos Cosmic Sea.
Therefore, after this expansion and renovation is gradually completed, the energy level inside will stabilize at level 7.
A level 7 energy zone is already considered a very superior environment in the Chaos Cosmic Sea, only slightly inferior to the core holy lands of the Human Race, such as the former Origin Abyss Star.
At this moment, he himself was almost like a miniature Cosmic Clam.
According to the information in the Blood Crystal, the so-called "Cosmic Clam" is, strictly speaking, nothing more than True Source Realm peak life form that has been specially cultivated after being modified by the Imperial Research Institute.
In the meditation room, Lin Yi's aura became increasingly profound and unfathomable.
The expansion of the inner universe has entered a stable period. The injection and transformation of chaotic energy form a perfect cycle. New stars are born under the nourishment of chaotic energy, and old stars become more stable through the optimization of rules.
Countless powerful beings suspended in the air silently comprehended the changes in the surrounding rules and energy, which was also a rare opportunity for them.
Within the miniature planetary space, the turbulence gradually subsided.
A higher-level internal primordial universe is gradually taking shape under the weaving of Chaos Rules.
Chaos Cosmic Sea, Bloodrage-class Assault Ship, Meditation Chamber.
Lin Yi sat cross-legged in meditation, his aura completely calm and profound.
The expansion of the inner universe and the transformation of the chaotic primordial universe, which lasted for more than three thousand standard years, are finally coming to an end.
The last wisp of diluted chaotic energy was smoothly injected, perfectly merging with the rules and patterns of the newly formed primordial universe.
The spatial structure, expanded tenfold, is now completely stable, with a self-contained energy cycle and an environment of level 7 energy concentration evenly distributed throughout every corner.
The inhabitants of the miniature planetary space no longer felt the turbulence, and the starry sky outside the protective shield became even more vast and dazzling. The powerful beings suspended in the air began to search for new footholds and prepare for the reconstruction work.
Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes.
The primordial chaos in his eyes had completely subsided, leaving only a bottomless calm.
The power of the True Source Realm flowed freely and seamlessly within his body.
With a slight thought, he sensed the state of the Origin Universe within his body, and then a smile appeared on his lips.
Everything is going well, Xuanji's management report also came in at the same time, indicating that the reconstruction work has started in an orderly manner according to the plan.
Just as he was about to get up and share this joy with everyone in the warehouse area, a faint silver light flashed in the training room.
The Light Sphere from Zero Three appeared silently and hovered one meter in front of him.
Congratulations on reaching the True Source Realm.
Lin Yi stood up and nodded slightly to the Light Sphere: "Thank you."
He wasn't surprised. Being inside the warship, even if breaking through to the True Source Realm in the Chaos Cosmic Sea was extremely quiet, it would still be difficult to hide it from Zero Three's perception.
After offering his congratulations, Zero Three continued, "According to the Imperial Army regulations, once you break through to the True Source Realm, unless specifically assigned, you will automatically be transferred to the combat personnel sequence. Your status has been updated. You will be assigned to the Third Combat Squad led by Mantaji."
Lin Yi nodded. The information in the Blood Crystal mentioned the relevant procedures, and Zhaoyue and Frost Rainbow were also arranged in the same way after their breakthroughs.
"At the same time, as an advanced reward, 50,000 military merits have been added to your sergeant badge. You can check it yourself," Zero Three added. "As is customary, newly recruited combat personnel must report to their squad commander, receive the Fierce Blood Battle Armor, and accept initial mission assignments."
As he spoke, the Zero Three Light Sphere drifted closer.
"I suggest that when you get the armor, you ask him for advice on how you can exchange it for cultivation techniques later. You are now a formal member of his team, and he has an obligation to provide you with guidance in your initial cultivation."
Lin Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.
This suggestion is reasonable. Mantaji is a mid-stage True Source Realm expert and a squad commander, so he must have a deep understanding of the True Source Realm techniques provided by the Imperial Army.
But Lin Yi had other plans in mind.
Since you're asking, you should definitely ask about the strongest one.
Lord Li himself said before that we could ask him any questions we had about cultivation.
This is an opportunity you shouldn't miss.
"Zero Three," Lin Yi spoke directly, "Could you please ask me if I could have an audience with Lord Li? I'd like to hear your advice regarding the choice of cultivation method."
The Light Sphere of Zero Three froze for a moment.
The shimmering light on its surface seemed to freeze for a moment before returning to normal.
"That's true. The master did say that you could ask him if you had any questions. Tsk, but I didn't expect you to be so impolite."
A moment later, Zero Three's voice rang out again. "The master has agreed to see you. Come with me."
After saying that, the Light Sphere turned and floated towards the door of the training room.
The hatch slid open silently. Lin Yi straightened his casual clothes, followed Zero Three, and walked out of the training room.
The cold lights on both sides of the corridor automatically turned on, extending towards the bridge.
Zero Three floated ahead, with Lin Yi following behind. They passed several intersections along the way, occasionally seeing one or two Blood Armor Warriors hurrying by. When they saw Zero Three and Lin Yi, they would only nod slightly in acknowledgment before continuing to carry out their mission.
Zero Three stopped in front of the arched gate.
The doors slid open silently to both sides, revealing the hemispherical bridge space behind them.
The crimson crystal core in the dome continued to flicker rhythmically.
Below the crystal core, Lord Li stood with his back to the door, hands clasped behind his back, seemingly observing the runes flowing on the surface of the crystal core.
"My lord." Zero Three floated to one side and hovered.
Lord Li turned around.
He was still wearing that black armor, his face calm, his gaze fixed on Lin Yi, giving him a quick look.
"They've arrived," Lord Li said. "Their aura after the breakthrough is stable, without any signs of weakness. Not bad."
"Thank you, sir." Lin Yi bowed slightly.
Lord Li raised his hand in a gesture of support, "Zero Three said you have questions about your choice of cultivation method?"
"Yes." Lin Yi straightened up. "I have just broken through to the True Source Realm and lack understanding of the True Source Realm cultivation methods provided by the Imperial Army. I remember that you previously instructed me to come and ask if I had any questions about cultivation. So I would like to ask you for guidance on how to choose a subsequent cultivation method."
After listening, Lord Li's expression remained unchanged; he simply nodded slightly.
"Knowing how to seize opportunities is a good thing."
Li raised his hand and conjured a light screen displaying brief information on more than ten cultivation techniques. "The Imperial Army offers more than ten mainstream cultivation techniques to choose from at the True Source Realm level. These techniques vary in difficulty, focus on different aspects, and ultimately achieve different power ceilings."
His fingers swept across the light screen, and the names and descriptions of various martial arts techniques flashed by rapidly.
The True Source Cosmos Canon, The Chaos Primer Record, The Source Cosmos Body-Forging Art, The Rift of the Netherworld Battle Scripture, and The Eternal Silence Heart Sutra.
"For someone who has just broken through to the True Source Realm," Lord Li turned around and looked at Lin Yi, "I usually recommend choosing the <True Source Nether-Sundering Battle Canon>, which has moderate difficulty and moderate power."
Is it difficult or easy?
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi's heart stirred.
He had already experienced the difficulty of comprehending the Chaos Rules when he redeemed the <True Source Realm Beginner's Guide>.
This is merely an introductory guide, not the actual cultivation method.
The cultivation methods of the True Source Realm inevitably involve a deeper level of Chaos Rules Application and the further construction and strengthening of the source universe within the body.
And mastery of combat techniques.
The difference in difficulty will likely be very significant.
"My lord," Lin Yi looked at the names of the cultivation techniques on the light screen, "What are the specific differences in difficulty among these techniques? Is it the level of entry requirements, or the complexity of subsequent comprehension and learning? And in what aspects do the differences in power mainly manifest?"
Lord Li glanced at him, seemingly unsurprised by his question.
"Sit."
As he spoke, two metal chairs rose from the ground.
Lin Yi sat down as instructed.
Lord Li also sat down opposite him, his black armor making a slight metallic scraping sound as it touched the seat.
"The cultivation techniques of the True Source Realm," Li slowly began, "Are fundamentally about the in-depth application of the Chaos Rules, as well as the efficiency of weaving the rules of the Origin Universe within the body and converting energy."
He raised his hand, and a wisp of extremely faint gray energy appeared at his fingertips. Within that energy, countless tiny, regular patterns arose and disappeared, radiating a heart-palpitating fluctuation.
"This is the Chaos Power," Lord Li said. "The essence of power controlled by cultivators at the True Source Realm. But even though it is all a Chaos Power, the purity, activity, and the amount of rules it carries vary drastically depending on the cultivation method."
"Low-difficulty cultivation techniques typically involve a superficial application of Chaos Rules, making them easy to control and quick to cultivate. However, their power ceiling is low, and if one wants to switch to more advanced techniques in the future, it almost requires starting from scratch."
"High-difficulty cultivation techniques directly address the essence of the Chaos Rules, requiring cultivators to have an extremely deep understanding and control over the rules. However, they are very difficult to comprehend, but once mastered, they are not only incredibly powerful, but also usually have exclusive secret methods, and they connect more smoothly with subsequent cultivation techniques in the Eternal Source Realm and Constant Source Realm."
The air currents from Lord Li's fingertips dissipated.
Lin Yi listened attentively, quickly processing the information in his mind.
"The True Source Nether-Sundering Battle Canon," Lord Li steered the conversation back to his initial suggestion, "Is of medium difficulty. It demands a high level of understanding of the Chaos Rules, but the introductory steps are relatively clear, with a wealth of experience summarized by predecessors available for reference. The quality of the Chaos Power cultivated is superior for a medium-level technique. Its three accompanying attack techniques —Nether-Sundering Strike, Source-Suppressing Strike, and Tide Strike —are quite powerful and have a wide range of applications, covering single-target attacks, area suppression, and defensive counterattacks."
"More importantly," Lord Li said, looking at Lin Yi, "This battle manual is widely circulated in the Imperial Army, and there are many practitioners."
This means that if you encounter difficulties during your cultivation, you can easily find fellow cultivators to exchange ideas and ask for advice. Mantaji also cultivates this battle manual. Moreover, the supply depot has the richest reserves of auxiliary cultivation resources and notes from predecessors related to this battle manual.
The suggestion is very practical and comprehensive, taking into account factors such as cultivation difficulty, power, resource acquisition, and communication environment.
Lin Yi remained silent for a moment, without responding immediately.
Li didn't urge him, but simply sat quietly, waiting for his decision.
Inside the bridge, only the crimson crystal core on the dome flickered intermittently.
After a while, Lin Yi raised his head and looked at Lord Li.
"My lord," he began slowly, "I would like to inquire about those highly difficult martial arts techniques... specifically, what are they?"
Just how high are their cultivation requirements?
A hint of surprise flashed across Lord Li's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He brought up the light screen again, swiped his finger across it, scrolled down the list, and stopped at the names of the few cultivation techniques at the bottom.
"There are three high-difficulty cultivation techniques suitable for your Origin Law combination," Lord Li said, "<The Chaos True Source Illustrated Record>."
The * Return-to-Void Eternal Silence Canon) and... the * Nine Seal Cosmos Art).
His finger touched the <Chaos True Source Illustrated Record>.
"This cultivation technique is said to originate from a fragment left behind by a Path Source Realm expert who has long since perished. To begin, one must visualize the True Source Chaos Diagram, and only one in a hundred succeeds. However, once mastered, the purity of the Chaos Power far surpasses that of others at the same level, and it comes with secret techniques True Source Eye, Chaos Chains, and Return-to-True Strike, making it extremely powerful."
Then, Li's finger moved to the <Return-to-Void Eternal Silence Canon>.
"This cultivation method follows the path of annihilation and termination. It requires the practitioner to have a profound understanding of the Origin Law death and a sufficiently cold and resolute mind to withstand the erosion of the Eternal Silence that constantly emerges during cultivation. The Chaos Power cultivated inherently possesses strong annihilation characteristics, accompanied by secret techniques such as the Eternal Silence Domain, the Return-to-Void Finger, and the Final Lament, all of which are powerful killing techniques. However, the practitioner must periodically enter specific annihilation environments to temper their mind and spirit, otherwise there is a risk of succumbing to depravity."
Finally, the finger stopped on the <Nine Seal Cosmos Art>.
Lord Li's expression became unusually serious.
"This technique," he said slowly, "Is the most theoretically difficult, but also the most powerful, technique at the True Source Realm level in the Imperial Army's treasury, without exception."
