Palpitations II

"The imprint is the most crucial element for you to enter into Thought Endures Eternally." Fusheng also lost his usual frivolous and exaggerated behavior, and became solemn and serious.

"Only by shaping your own identity can you reach the state where the existence of thought is the existence of you. And the prerequisite for all of this is that you must first understand, 'What am I?'"

That last sentence, that single question, struck Lin Hui's mind like a heavy hammer blow.

A sudden flash of inspiration shone brightly in his mind, illuminating all his thoughts.

Lin Hui bowed hastily to Fusheng, then vanished in a flash.

He reappeared in the Black Domain void, quickly teleporting back to Clear Jade Mountain.

Then it remained still.

The endless Wind Energy spread wildly from him, and over time, Wind Energy has now formed a large, light blue area resembling Wind Disaster.

This region surrounding Clear Jade Mountain has expanded to a diameter of tens of thousands of light-years, covering almost all of Lin Hui's known world sphere. Furthermore, part of it has caused Drought Disaster due to contact and erosion, while another part has eroded the outer perimeter of the Wind Disaster that once existed within the Nine Heavens Gate.

But Lin Hui remained completely still, quietly meditating and contemplating in the center.

As Fusheng said, what he is doing now is to organize and comprehend all the secret techniques and special effects he has learned in his life.

It's okay if you don't understand it at first. Once the Supreme Omniscience Seal is activated, and you do it a few more times, you'll easily understand it.

As he gradually mastered each special effect, Lin Hui gained a comprehensive understanding of all his martial arts techniques and secret arts.

In the blink of an eye, thirty years have passed.

Through the Resistance Army, Lin Hui has acquired two thousand Star Butterfly Fish Eye.

He also released his previously absorbed fish-eye stockpile to pursue sustainable development.

Just when he thought everything would continue in this orderly, repetitive manner, he realized...

Finally, after nearly two thousand years of patience, the Resistance Army could no longer hold back.

"Senior, are you free right now? We, the Star Lords, hope to contact and exchange ideas with you." Silent Stone Swallow finally took the initiative to make the request within the Black Lotus.

Inside the small courtyard of Clear Jade Mountain, Lin Hui slowly opened his eyes.

"Of course," he replied. "Just send him my account information."

"Thank you." Youyou now quite used to being around Lin Hui, who is stronger than her.

Soon, a user named Rongchang Star Lord took the initiative to add Lin Hui as a friend.

Lin Hui had just finished speaking when a message came from the other side.

"Brother Lin, would you be interested in joining my Resistance Army Alliance?" -- Star Lord.

"Let's skip the obvious answers and get straight to the point," Lin Hui said bluntly.

"Alright! Since that's the case, I won't waste any more words. Brother Lin, having cultivated to this level, you must understand that the Source Disaster isn't something you can simply avoid. At our level, there's no way to hide; we ourselves are the most conspicuous presence. Therefore, we will inevitably attract a constant stream of Source Disaster attacks. So, the main objective of our Resistance Army is to attack the Source Disaster first, proactively weakening them, so that when they attack us, we won't be too powerful and dangerous," Star Lord Ming said.

"So, whether you like it or not, you're going to attract various Source Disaster sooner or later. So, Brother Lin, are you planning to directly confront them when Source Disaster power is at its peak, or will you take the initiative and join forces with us to weaken Source Disaster and make it easier to overcome them?"

Lin Hui remained silent.

Indeed, from this perspective, his conversion of Wind Energy is actually a silent way of weakening Wind Disaster, turning them into his own power, and thus isolating other Source Disaster.

In a sense, what he did was the same as what the star lords did.

"So?" Of course, he wouldn't say it outright.

"Therefore, since Brother Lin is unwilling to join us, we hope to hire him as an external ally to turn the tide at a crucial moment," the Star Lord said earnestly. "To be honest, the greatest pressure and danger we face in weakening the Source Disaster comes from the Fusion Faction factions of the various Source Disaster and those mutated mindless monsters."

"Could you tell me just how strong and powerful the Resistance Faction is?" Lin Hui asked.

"I cannot answer that question. I am merely a leader of the Resistance Faction in the surrounding area," the Star Lord replied. "You know what infinity is, right? The Black Domain Void, in essence, is infinitely expanding. Whether it's spacetime, dimensions, or realms, it's constantly extending, expanding, infinitely expanding."

"Therefore, wherever there are living beings, there will inevitably be three factions. In the infinite Black Domain, the Source Disaster is infinite. We can only take care of our own area and environment; we are powerless to do anything about the rest," the Star Lord said.

"Infinity..." Lin Hui couldn't understand. "Do infinite things really exist in the world?"

"What makes you think it won't happen?" The Star Lord's question silenced him completely.

"I understand, thank you for your guidance. I agree." Lin Hui immediately agreed to be an outside helper without hesitation.

"Good, good, good!" The Star Lord's tone immediately revealed a hint of joy. He then discussed a short-range mercenary mission with Lin Hui —to go to a void guided by the Black Lotus and deal with the abnormally expanding Black Disaster.

"To date, more than a dozen world spheres have been destroyed. There are experts from the Fusion Faction lurking there, seemingly deliberately cultivating new breeding grounds. Our people have gone several times but haven't been able to take them down. I'm tied up with trivial matters here and can't go, so... the reward is the Existence Force you requested. I can guarantee the content will be no less than a single Star Butterfly Fish Eye, a total of two thousand at a time!"

The Star Lord had clearly done thorough research before coming. By comparing the fish eyes he brought in with those he took out, he immediately understood what Lin Hui truly needed.

Nobody in this world is a fool.

Lin Hui decided to stop hiding it.

"Good."

"Be careful, there might be hidden forces on the other side. It's a faction called the Withered Wood Divine Sect. They originated from the Desolation Disaster and are an old power that has only recently revived."

"Good."

Lin Hui quickly received the guidance technique and inputted it into the Black Lotus.

Immediately, a guiding cursor emerged from the Black Lotus, its color a translucent white.

The cursor is constantly pulling him in a certain direction.

After closing the Black Lotus, Lin Hui sat cross-legged in the courtyard and gently tapped the ground.

Knock knock...

Two subtle vibrations were transmitted instantly.

Not long after.

Three figures teleported at lightning speed and appeared in the courtyard, bowing to him in respect.

It was none other than Xia Si and her two companions.

Given Lin Hui's stature, he naturally wouldn't readily believe the Star Lord's words; he would naturally send someone to investigate further.

Previously, he used an evolved supercomputer, but now he doesn't need it at all. He only needs to carry a little of the Wind Energy he converted, take root, sprout, and expand there. Naturally, he will soon learn a lot of details. Then, he can send his disciples to infiltrate and investigate. Everything will then come to light.

After a thousand years apart, the aura emanating from the three has become even more powerful and imposing.

The exaggerated Wind Energy had woven into long blue and white hair, cascading behind the three of them, faintly showing signs of the Clear Source Dharma Body becoming normal.

"Finally, you've broken through to the seventh ring of materialization. You're quite good." Lin Hui could tell the three's cultivation level at a glance.

"However, once you reach the materialization stage, the road ahead becomes incredibly difficult. The hurdles are far greater than all the previous stages combined. You need to be prepared."

"We understand, of course. The rest will be a matter of time and patience," Su Yaping said respectfully.

The more he cultivated, the more he understood just how powerful and terrifying Lin Hui truly was.

The other two nodded slightly, indicating that they understood.

"Very good." Lin Hui paused. "I have a mission here, commissioned by the Resistance Army, which you need to carry out. Just like last time, investigate thoroughly and collect all kinds of information. The more information you bring back, the better."

What Origin Scene Sword Canon needs is information, and to gather intelligence to confirm signs of the enemy forces, so that it can win a quick battle without any mistakes.

"Yes!" the three answered in unison without saying a word.

They had long been impatient staying in Clear Jade Mountain. Now they finally had the opportunity to go out and put their skills to use in real combat.

"Go ahead," Lin Hui waved.

Space tore open, instantly condensing and copying the Black Lotus, sending it over, engulfing the three of them—this was his way of sending them off on their journey.

After confirming that they had left, he stood up and teleported several times, quickly arriving in a Black Domain void, in front of a floating, dilapidated world sphere.

Inside the world sphere, a white brocade pouch, Existence Force a golden light, floated silently.

Lin Hui reached out and grabbed it, and instantly a wisp of the Star Lord's message entered his soul.

This is a deposit.

The brocade pouch contained a total of five hundred black pearls resembling the Star Butterfly Fish Eye. Indeed, as the Star Lord had said, each pearl Existence Force of between twenty and thirty thousand.

It's even more stable than a fisheye lens; the vast majority of the Existence Force 30,000 units.

Next, having made some progress in integrating all my knowledge, it's time to use the Existence Force to unify and accelerate this process.

In the distant Black Domain void...

A three-fingered man covered in blue scales, his body appearing vaguely translucent, slowly emerged.

He stopped...

"So what?" A small brown building appeared out of thin air behind him.

Mu Cheng Jiang held a white paper fan, her long hair flowing, her sleeves billowing, as if an invisible whirlwind surrounded her.

"If I say you can't go, then you can't go."

"Are you really going to fight me to the death?" The blue-scaled man's tone turned sinister.

"I don't intend to fight you to the death. You've recovered a little over halfway and are perfectly free to move around. Just don't deliberately create danger or force that child to use his heart," Mu Cheng Jiang said with a smile.

"He's shrouded in Mist now, I can't see him clearly... In any case, my heart inside him must be retrieved. Since you won't allow me to revive in him, then my heart should at least be returned to me, right?" the blue-scaled man said coldly.

"I can't see clearly either, but have you considered that since that child was able to revive you and me inexplicably, he might have revived the other Heavenly Venerables as well... Are you just going to just walk away like this..." Mu Cheng Jiang laughed.

J

The blue-scaled man fell silent. Indeed, this possibility was extremely high...

Furthermore, he had actually noticed his heart pounding before, an instinctive alertness that only occurs when encountering a powerful Celestial Venerable.

This means that a Celestial Venerable must have been by that kid's side!

This also means that what Mu Cheng Jiang said is very likely true.

"I will wait a little longer. In any case, the heart must be taken back." Although he said he would take back the heart, he had not given up his plan to create danger to force Lin Hui to use the heart to get out of trouble.

Mu Cheng Jiang also noticed this, but he didn't stop him anymore because... he really couldn't be sure about Lin Hui's situation... letting Chongli test the waters and clear up the Mist might be a solution.
