The First Step II

The guards were all quite large, but in front of True Person Feather Blood at this moment, they were like a swarm of tiny flies, so small that they could not even be noticed without careful observation.

"Hmm, how's the progress now?" Feather Blood asked calmly.

"Reporting to the Palace Master, this batch of pills is not yet fully mature and will likely require eighty years of nurturing and cultivation," a pill guardian reported in a deep voice. "Too slow," Feather Blood Zhenren said impatiently.

"Reporting to you, Master, perhaps it's because the alchemy furnace hasn't been cleaned for a long time, and there are too many impurities inside... so..." the man continued. "Alright, after this batch, I'll clean it thoroughly," Feather Blood said casually. "Is there anything else?"

"Well... I do have something else to discuss," another guard stepped forward and said.

"Explain."

"Yes, that's right. Recently, when we were patrolling the area around the roads, we discovered a strange and unusual wind-related Wind Disaster Energy appearing in the surrounding void. It's not just here; it seems this strange Disaster Energy originally appeared from the Black Tree Abyss, and later perhaps some disciples of our Guangxin Hall brought it over through the Black Tree Abyss. So it started appearing here as well."

"What do you want to do?" Feather Blood asked.

"That's right. We're worried that this mutated Disaster Energy negatively impact the alchemy furnace. Therefore, we hope the Palace Master can trace the source of this power, find its origin, and determine if there's a problem," the alchemy protector stated their core demand.

"Tracing the origins of time and space is very mentally taxing. What percentage of this Disaster Energy is currently at play? Will it affect alchemy?" Feather Blood asked, frowning.

"Um... the proportion around it is indeed not much, about one-fortieth of the Disaster Energy. So far, we haven't observed any impact on alchemy," the alchemy guardian replied.

"Then ignore it. Why are you so eager to refine pills for the sect? We'll talk about it when something goes wrong," Feather Blood said impatiently. "This is really strange; I've never seen anyone like you before."

These words made the guard of the pills blush, and he dared not say another word.

Indeed, the other guardians of the pills had already opposed his proposal before they even set off.

That's right, apart from him, everyone else opposed mentioning alien Disaster Energy.

In fact, this is the normal reaction.

After all, most of the Fusion Faction members are afraid of death and very few are straightforward; everyone is flexible and adaptable.

We've all Fusion Faction; everyone has surrendered to the Source Disaster and given up resistance. If you insist on portraying yourself as a person of integrity, selfless and concerned for the sect's greater good, isn't that just plain foolish?

Don't mention anything, no matter what it is, as long as it doesn't affect you.

Even Feather Blood, who is the deputy hall master, actually has the same thoughts.

They didn't care at all about the Disaster Energy. As long as they were cautious enough not to incorporate it into their bodies, they didn't care either. After all, their souls had already been controlled by the Thunder King Sect. How bad could it be? At worst, they could just self-destruct and die.

Essentially, most members of the Fusion Faction faction share this mindset.

Selfishness and self-interest are their forte, and corruption among themselves is their specialty.

"Alright, that's enough. Meeting adjourned." Feather Blood Xue swept his sleeve and vanished in an instant.

The so-called inspection thus came to an end.

Hongyu Chun stood up, looked at the spot where Feather Blood Zhenren had disappeared, and sighed.

"Let's go, let's go. Didn't a new batch of people arrive recently? I've selected a few to take as servants. Do you all want to come and have some fun here?" "What's so fun about that? Their manners are terrible. They'll be dead in no time," another guard said unhappily.

"That's because you weren't careful enough. You should have handled them gently while playing. After all, these are substandard items that even sects wouldn't be able to get into," Hongyu Chun said helplessly. "Can we switch to another game? Playing the illusionary dungeon all the time is getting a bit boring," Ichigo Danren suggested.

Yes. The play they were talking about wasn't about sexual relations, but rather about using the servants as toys.

Using the ability to materialize, they can create all things at will, set up illusions and small spaces for them, and let them enter to overcome challenges and experience various loves, hates, and grudges. It's like artificially creating a TV series of their own preferred type.

After all, those who couldn't be selected were basically those with strength below the material level, which, according to the standards of the Endless Divine Clan, would be at the level of the sixth or fifth ring.

Such a person might be considered a powerful figure outside, but Heartless Belt in this Wind Disaster, he can only become a figurine or toy in the hands of a big shot.

Because of the Fusion Faction, these dolls and figurines won't die anytime soon, but after the big shots erase their memories and implant other strange memories, they'll be forced to act out all sorts of bizarre and inhumane scenarios.

"Anyway, I'm tired of your previous plots. How about we try this time and see if we can brainwash them all into cavemen, give one of the main characters a cheat code, and see how long it takes to evolve our own civilization?"

How do you depict the passage of time?

"We can activate the array to accelerate certain areas, and I know of places where the flow of time is already extremely fast."

A group of pill protectors began to discuss the matter, each offering their own opinion.

As for the so-called alien Disaster Energy, nobody cares about it anymore.

Danlu residential area.

Lin Hui stood with his hands behind his back in the courtyard, looking through the shade of the trees at the dark void outside where flashes of light constantly streaked across the sky.

The tree was a Disaster Energy product that he materialized by hand. In essence, it was indeed a tree, but it carried Disaster Energy radiation.

This is the power of materialization. In theory, those who can mold infinite energy into matter can create almost anything at will.

It only requires consuming one's own divine soul.

Besides creating things that already exist, they can also create things that have never existed before.

As thoughts raced through his mind, a mental message suddenly emanated from the pin on Lin Hui's chest.

"Xiao Lin, the Vice Hall Master's inspection is over." The message came from the robot Cui Shining, who was born into the silicon-based life form race. After his own world was destroyed, he voluntarily became a member of the Fusion Faction, abandoning his goal of rebuilding his race.

This time, Lin Hui asked him to remind him after the patrol was over.

"It's over?"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Hui felt reassured.

Nothing unusual happened after it ended. It seems that either they didn't care, or they never discovered the Heaven Seed at all.

And so... we can finally begin...

Looking at the pitch-black sky, a slight smile finally appeared on his lips.

He leaped into the air and quickly left his home. He circled the alchemy furnace to make sure there was no unusual activity or change. Then he found a secluded spot in the void, and after so long, his divine soul finally began to formally activate the Heaven Seed.

At the same time, Wind Energy is also beginning to accelerate the conversion of surrounding Disaster Energy.

The requirement for Heaven Seed environment is that the host must have complete control over the surrounding environment.

The key to fully controlling the details is to actively provide the necessary nutrients and space as the Heaven Seed grows and expands.

When this control ratio reaches one-third of the Disaster Energy, it can indirectly influence and control changes in the surrounding environment.

At this moment, Lin Hui's worries vanished, and he immediately began to unleash a large amount of transformation.

Just then, the disciples who protected the alchemy went to celebrate the gathering, and the deputy hall master left, leaving only some fellow disciples around to process materials for their tasks.

Because the void was large enough, no one noticed that a source of Wind Energy had appeared there.

A large amount of Wind Energy was continuously transformed by Yin-Time Self-Origin Art and the Immortal Fire and then injected into the surrounding space.

Time passed little by little.

As Wind Energy continued to increase, more than two hours later...

finally.

A soft, faint sound suddenly rang in Lin Hui's mind.

The Heaven Seed reacted.

When the Wind Energy reached one-third of its maximum, the Heaven Seed he activated finally reacted again.

After years of spreading Wind Energy, the results are finally in.

At this moment, Lin Hui sensed it.

The Heaven Seed, which had previously completely covered the surface of the alchemy furnace, now began to extend its long, slender tongue once again.

Countless tongues, densely packed like threads, began to spread and extend further afield.

Under Lin Hui's will, the silken tongues and countless Wind Energy gradually began to merge into the entire void.

This is the true and complete fusion of the Heaven Seed.

Once the fusion is successful, the entire void of the Guangxin Hall will become Lin Hui's place for advancement.

This fusion lasted for more than ten minutes before slowly coming to an end.

Until the very end, none of the fellow disciples or the various medicinal herb formations in this void were able to detect anything amiss.

This demonstrates the high value of this "Sky-Piercing Void Absorption Seal".

Lin Hui stood in the courtyard. The instant the Heaven Seed completely merged, he gained a rough overall sense of the surrounding void. The entire void area spanning one hundred light-years, including the three alchemy furnaces, was now within his divine sense. The power of this seal technique was on full display at this moment.

Originally, it would have been absolutely impossible for his own divine soul to expand to this extent.

But with the help of the ever-flowing Wind Energy, combined with the Heaven Seed, Lin Hui's divine consciousness could extend to such a vast distance. "Next, the void will be fully integrated; it will be time for the Heaven Seed and Wind Energy to fuse with all living beings within."

The core power of the Sky-Piercing Void Absorption Seal lies in its ability to bring along all living beings within it during fusion. Any living being that has absorbed the material energy of this void will be included within the scope of the Heaven Seed.

At this very moment.

In the void.

The members of the Thunder King Sect were diligently processing medicinal herbs.

The guardians of the alchemy sects, who were gathered together playing with figurines, and many disciples from other branches of the sects who were passing by and visiting friends in the Guangxin Hall, were all quietly drawn into the coverage area by the Heaven Seed at this moment.

Just as the Colloidal Dissociation protecting the pills and other experts in the celestial realm were being pulled into the Heaven Seed, Lin Hui in the courtyard trembled slightly. The three Nether Seed within his body began to spin rapidly.

The three quickly drew together and then began to merge.

The enormous, terrifying Wind Energy forcibly compressed and squeezed together by an invisible external force.

As it was squeezed, the three Nether Seed gradually melted, turning into a blurry, purple mass with indistinct outlines.

A faint, higher-level aura of materialization slowly emanated from this purple substance.

"Is this using the power of the Heaven Seed to propel me to the next energy level?"

Lin Hui was overjoyed.

Although the transformation inside was slow, at least there was hope that could be seen with the naked eye.

Based on the slow rate of transformation, it is estimated that it will take at most ten years to completely transition from materialization to Colloidal Dissociation.

This teacher Seven Extinctions a level for countless millennia, yet he broke through it so easily and effortlessly.

At this moment, Lin Hui finally felt a glimmer of hope that he could lead his teacher away from the Source Disaster and the Fusion Faction.

The Heaven Seed is now bound to the void of the Guangxin Hall. The next step is to cultivate everyone within the Guangxin Hall. The more they improve together, the stronger they become, the greater the benefit to the Heavenly Seed.

In addition, Wind Energy needs to be dispersed to maximize the area of the fusion space. If stronger experts can be integrated, it would indirectly increase the internal energy level of the Heaven Seed. However, it is foreseeable that things will not be as easy as before.
