Whirlpools and skull-opening humanoid figures kept sweeping past Lin Hui.

He was extremely efficient, leaving almost all of them after a single touch. In a short time, he sifted through all the thousands of secret techniques and cultivation methods that had reacted to him. After removing those created by non-human races, more than three hundred remained.

After removing those below the seventh ring materialization energy level, more than one hundred remain.

After further screening, I found that the specific conditions for cultivation were extremely demanding, requiring various precious treasures and specific environments.

Finally, seventeen types remained.

From these seventeen types, Lin Hui selected the subtle function he needed: the ability to adjust short-term memory subtly and without the user's awareness, making it extremely difficult to detect. This left only four types.

"To think there are four different cultivation techniques and secret arts! The quality is truly worthy of the Thunder King Sect... a top sect far superior to my Nine Heavens Gate Sect." Lin Hui thought to himself, carefully examining the four cultivation techniques and secret arts.

"Sky Vault Spirit Wasteland Method: Can trap the target in a recurring cycle of reincarnation illusions for an extremely short time, erasing their original memories, personality, and will. This technique has the effect of distorting the sense of time, providing a subtle aid to understanding spacetime distortion. Limitation: The target's soul must be at least twice as strong as the target's." "Old Grudge Art: Gathers billions of resentful energies, directing and concentrating them on the target, causing memory confusion, soul distortion, and a drastic change in temperament. This technique can spread to other nearby soul entities."

"Fangsheng Art: This technique allows for the arbitrary deletion and modification of a target's memory information from a special dimension. However, it's difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and prolonged use in this special dimension can lead to doubts about one's own memories. Limitation: The soul's strength must reach the threshold for contact with the special dimension." "Light-Chasing Method: Killing a designated target grants access to consume their memories. Excessive consumption may lead to memory confusion." Lin Hui directly explained these four techniques using his Blood Seal seal, clearly demonstrating the costs and side effects involved.

He immediately knew which one to choose.

What I need is to precisely cut out the parts of the memory I choose, so

He reached out and gently touched the edge of Fangsheng Art's vortex.

In an instant, a massive influx of information flowed into his soul.

The entire technique is divided into three levels: Fixed Dimension, Soaring, and Infinity.

The so-called special dimension is actually a bizarre dimension composed entirely of memory information.

This technique was actually created by a top expert to combat the erosion and loss of cognition caused by the Source Disaster Calamity.

Unfortunately, that person ultimately failed to resolve the matter, and the derivative techniques they created were also left behind in this Hall of Inheritance.

After expending a portion of his vital energy, Lin Hui left the Inheritance Hall with this special technique.

Before leaving, he earnestly bid farewell to the gaunt woman Withered Smoke.

"There are countless dimensions in this world, so remember to be mindful of how long you stay there," Withered Smoke gently advised.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior." Lin Hui nodded.

Having acquired a new spell, especially a top-tier materialized energy spell, he was filled with anticipation.

If this succeeds, perhaps we will have newer methods to deal with the Fusion Faction in the future.

He had always found this kind of being, which was impossible to kill, drive away, or control, quite troublesome.

Although he himself is a similar individual, it does not prevent him from expressing his disgust for such individuals.

Fangsheng Art has always been displayed in the Inheritance Hall, but it is rarely heard of outside, which clearly indicates that it must have its own troubles.

After obtaining the spell, Lin Hui returned to his courtyard and began to practice it, but he immediately felt the difficulty.

Because one must first learn the techniques before choosing to evolve them; otherwise, they can only be used as external objects, and even after evolving, they cannot gain the memory of cultivation experience.

Therefore, he must first roughly cultivate and master this introductory method before he can further evolve.

But once he started using it, he discovered that the difficulty of this method far exceeded his expectations.

The first step in defining the dimension is determining how to enter that special dimension. To enter, one must adjust one's soul, allowing its perceived frequency wavelength to enter an extremely precise and minute range. Then, one must create a strangely structured, tentacle-like organ within the soul using material means.

Afterwards, the organ was fused, connected, and trained until, after a period of time of cultivation, it was possible to vaguely contact the location of that special dimension. Lin Hui secluded himself to cultivate diligently, and fortunately, the Flash Extreme Seal, which could enhance intelligence three times, came in very handy. It took him three years to barely complete the first level of dimension fixation. At this very moment, the conflict between the Thunder King Sect and the Myriad Stars Tower finally reached its climax.

Boom!!

Just as Lin Hui was sitting cross-legged in his courtyard practicing the Fangsheng Art, the entire alchemy furnace suddenly trembled violently.

Waves of massive tremors shook and knocked down all the buildings and people on the ground.

Lin Hui suddenly stood up and instantly left the courtyard.

The sensation spread rapidly like a tide, carried by the Wind Energy, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the entire Guangxin Hall.

This is the power of the Dao-alignment level.

Where things align, everything is within our grasp and observation.

Now, some of the Wind Energy even flows into Black Tree Abyss, to the point that Lin Hui can sometimes sense the activity there.

At this very moment, in Lin Hui's perception, the entire Guangxin Hall its Three Greats alchemy furnaces and public areas, was like a vast expanse of green representing safety, being stained by a large amount of red representing the invasion of danger.

Within the red area, there were numerous enormous humanoid cultivators, each with a black vortex floating behind them, resembling a black hole. Some had one, some had two or three, and some even had more than ten.

They stormed into the Guangxin Hall, killing anyone they saw. Although a black hole vortex floated behind them, their methods and techniques were all equally varied. Streams of blue Wind Disaster Energy burst forth in various forms.

Divine beast forms, monsters, giant trees, ocean waves, giant mountains, and all sorts of chaotic spells and techniques clashed with the tens of thousands of cultivators from the Guangxin Hall who were hastily preparing for battle.

The formations were activated one after another, but the opposing side also had formations supporting them. In the Offset between the two sides, the Guangxin Hall side was actually at a slight disadvantage.

What alarmed Lin Hui the most was the conflict between experts at the Colloidal Dissociation energy level or even higher.

The battle between Hongyu Chun and the other protectors of the pills and the foreign invaders, and the speed at which the two sides were resisting the materialization transformation, were things Lin Hui could understand. But the battle between the extremely powerful deputy hall masters was something he couldn't understand at all.

The deputy hall master who made the move was not True Man Feather Blood, but another tall man with a single white horn on his forehead.

He and an old man in red robes stood facing each other across the alchemy furnace, neither of them making any significant movements.

However, the space around the two of them is undergoing a rapid and dramatic change.

Some outsiders who were accidentally knocked into these spaces by the aftershocks would instantly age, then turn into infants, and then into cabinets or trees. After flashing and changing like this hundreds of times, they would finally disappear completely.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that it had decomposed directly into countless tiny dust particles.

The two powerful figures at the level of palace masters were not only incomprehensible in their fighting, but their communication could also not be eavesdropped on.

Their spiritual fluctuations were vast and terrifying. To others, each communication they exchanged appeared as if a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. Lin Hui floated up, his expression solemn.

He wasn't so lucky; the alchemy furnace he was in happened to be the one in the middle of the battle between two powerful figures at the level of palace masters.

Now that the Illusion Destruction Eye are on him, if they are destroyed by a saturation attack, then he will really have no choice but to use Fate Reversal. He is currently at the sixth level of the sword technique and has only used Fate Reversal once. He can also be immune to five fatal attacks. Such a special effect is extremely precious, and he does not want to gamble on whether the palace masters will notice him.

Moreover, he possesses the core progenitor's essence blood of Dinisha.

"Go!" The thought flashed through Lin Hui's mind, and he immediately flew out of the alchemy furnace. His body decomposed, extending into countless Wind Energy, and in the blink of an eye, he traversed dozens of light-years.

It flashed and coalesced in another part of the void.

As soon as he condensed, he felt a chaotic scene around him, with countless surging Disaster Energy carrying different divine wills canceling, resisting, and obliterating each other. He dared not linger and immediately disintegrated and flickered again.

This was repeated more than ten times in a row.

He finally managed to escape the interior of the Guangxin Hall by fully utilizing the Dao-integrating rapid movement talent.

Guangxin Hall is the Zongmen Square, a public area.

At this moment, several palace masters were already fighting in the square, but the aftershocks had not yet spread here.

The people opposite were all dressed in red Daoist robes.

"The people from Myriad Stars Tower suddenly attacked our fifteen branch halls! Brother Lin, are you alright on your end?!" A member of the Clear Jade Mountain branch, who had received their seal, sent a message through their communication card.

They were all members of the Black Tree Abyss Sect, introduced by Xiling Ghost. Their strength was amplified by the Wind Energy of the seal, and now they are all doing very well. Therefore, they are all very concerned about Lin Hui's side.

"I'm fine. Luckily I ran fast. Our deputy hall master is fighting with the experts who came," Lin Hui said with a sigh of relief.

"At this level of engagement, we can't remain inactive, or we'll be punished afterwards. But we can't engage in reckless fighting either, or we'll be in big trouble if we cause serious problems. So we need to carefully select our opponents," came the advice from the communication terminal.

"Given Myriad Stars Tower's usual character, it's best not to choose targets that appear weak or don't seem to be fighting very intensely. These are often cunning old foxes who deliberately don't put in the effort. Choosing them would be troublesome, as they are actually extremely powerful."

"Also, avoid those that seem rushed and disorganized; that's fishing, a common fishing technique used by Myriad Stars Tower."

"If you have a choice, you can find a minor expert who's overwhelming your own people. That's actually the safest option because you can team up with your fellow disciples to deal with them, so the pressure isn't too great. Secondly, those types who can only overpower you but can't win in the long run have probably run out of tricks up their sleeves; they're probably just using their full strength. Some of them are even being worn down by our hidden strength and underhanded tactics. So, that's the safest choice. If you act a little pathetic, it'll look better for the sect. At least you've given it your all."

The newly appointed members of the Clear Jade Mountain branch offered their advice. Having fought countless battles and clashed with Myriad Stars Tower, they were extremely experienced. They quickly summarized many of Myriad Stars Tower's characteristics in their comments.

Following their instructions, Lin Hui quickly found the most suitable young male expert.

Then he rushed forward and, together with another white-haired old man, "struggled" to fend off the opponent's attack.

While defending himself, he also observed the situation.

There were quite a few battle groups in the square; a quick scan revealed at least a thousand.

Everyone was desperately absorbing the Disaster Energy and unleashing their techniques and secret arts. In this life-or-death battle, a large amount of Wind Energy began to be absorbed into the bodies of the Thunder King Sect members, transformed into spells, techniques, and secret arts, which were then released and achieved considerable results.

Under such catalysis, the speed and proportion of Wind Energy entering all channels are also increasing rapidly.

Therefore, Lin Hui focused his perception on the few powerful figures at the Palace Master level who were engaged in combat.

As long as they also absorb enough Wind Energy... once they are considered individuals within the scope of the Heaven Seed.

In that case, with the help of the Heaven Seed, his cultivation level will also be forcibly raised.
