The Conditions for Entering the True Self Realm
"Not enough! Your conditions are far from sufficient!"
Inside the Sinkhole No. 2, Ren Anran felt somewhat anxious upon learning of the fight between Zhang Xuezhou and the white-haired old man.
"You've learned about his situation, and he's learned about yours; you can fill the gaps, and so can he," Ren Anran said. "If you judge his strength based on his previous abilities, you'll inevitably suffer a crushing defeat in any subsequent confrontation!"
"What about my brother?" Zhang Manqian asked anxiously.
"If we encounter each other again, Xuezhou will need a much longer time to increase his resilience," Ren Anran said. "The consistent circulation of Law Power in the True Self Realm has a high probability of boosting the power of the Gene Sequence. If Xuezhou can step into the True Self, his ability to fly for 100,000 miles should not be a problem!"
Ren Anran made an estimate; she had never imagined the confrontation would unfold so quickly.
Even though everyone has made preparations time and time again, the preparations are far from keeping up with the demand.
They were not facing a powerful Sequence Holder, but the strongest alien being in the history of this world.
The opponent is unkillable, has near- Infinite endurance, and possesses irresistible attack capabilities. In reality, no one can defeat the opponent head-on, nor even have the qualifications to resist.
But the irony is that Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou faster and had the ability to disrupt, which inevitably led to the other side pursuing him, thus escalating the confrontation between the two sides.
"He can't just sit there doing nothing," Ren Anran said. "When you return in the next cycle, the world might very well be different!"
"His current ability to manipulate the world's origin is likely to drive the evolution of Ferocious Beast," Zhang Xuezhou said. "If he hadn't chosen Qinmeng to derive the Ferocious Beast, he would most likely have targeted the Thousand Islands Alliance, as only there would meet his requirements!"
"Once we strike these evolved Ferocious Beast, they might get the information and fly over to ambush us?" Ren Anran asked.
"That should be it." Zhang Xuezhou nodded. "He used this method before; it was direct and effective!"
"Only a god could save the Thousand Islands Alliance!"
Zhang Manqian frowned. After listening to Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Anran's analysis, she felt that the possibility of the Thousand Islands Alliance falling into disaster was too high.
If Qinmeng's few Fire Meteor cultivators cannot hold back the white-haired old man, the Thousand Islands Alliance will inevitably fall into crisis.
As various wild animals evolve, countries like the Scarlet Alliance State will face the same crisis.
Every time Zhang Xuezhou and his group make a move, they risk being attacked and killed by the enemy.
"This is a big problem, but it could also become a big problem for him if we use it in reverse," Ren Anran said. "If we can use mental manipulation to lure the Ferocious Beast into the ambush, it might be possible to lure him in!"
"Achieving this goal might require the professor to attempt the Ninth Sequence!"
The Ferocious Beast's resistance layer greatly reduces the influence of the mind. Just as Zhou Rihui violently broke through the resistance layer, only by breaking through the corresponding threshold can the mind be manipulated.
Sitting beneath the Spirit Jade in the sinkhole, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he was far from meeting the standard. If he wanted to further advance his breakthrough to the True Self realm, he truly had no time to spare and could hardly meet the standard in a short period of time.
"My father failed to reach the Ninth Sequence using Badun's method; the mental baptism was too difficult," Ren Anran said. "Now, he can only rely on the Poison Tree Staff to get as close to the Ninth Sequence as possible!"
"The most important thing right now is to help my brother step into his True Self," Zhang Manqian said.
"The only thing missing is for my Yang Corporeal Soul Body to complete its training and return," Ren Anran said, pursing her lips. "If she gains something from this cross-realm training and can refer to Huo Qubing's case to promote suitable methods for fusing and transforming the Nascent Soul into a suitable Xuezhou, then the method for entering the True Self Realm of the Yin-Yang School will surely be able to be derived!"
"Having a plan isn't enough. How do we solve the problem of cultivation resources needed to enter the True Self Realm?" Zhang Manqian said, "The Spirit Jade from the Sinkhole No. 2 can only propel Zhouzi into the Sole Self Realm, but it will inevitably be insufficient for entering the True Self Realm. We don't have Fortune Pill to supplement it!"
"Resources aren't a major concern," Zhang Xuezhou said. "I got this magic stone from Nagesi. The magic stone increased the speed at which my body recovers Law Power, and with the snake cave transformed into Spirit Jade cave, the external conditions are passable. If anything's lacking, I'll just ask him for more!"
"Are there any conditions?"
Zhang Manqian exclaimed in surprise.
When Zhang Xuezhou mentioned Qinmeng's terrifying transformation ability as a half-step ascendant, Zhang Manqian couldn't help but gasp.
"If we can figure out how to get him to his location, wouldn't we be able to create a mountain of Spirit Jade or a mountain of demonic stones?" Zhang Manqian asked.
"That's right. If we can create a Spirit Jade and a Demon Stone Mountain at the same time, the two together will surely become the strongest treasure land in the world. Being in such an area, I can be said to have an inexhaustible source of Law Power. Not to mention impacting my True Self, I can even hold out for a while in direct confrontation with him," Zhang Xuezhou said with a smile.
"Your field influences time and space, so you have a higher chance of successfully outmaneuvering him. If you try to outmaneuver him twice, you need to control the pace to avoid giving him an opportunity," Ren Anran advised.
I will look for opportunities as much as possible!
Zhang Xuezhou spoke casually, but his scheming was bound to be anticipated by the other party, and finding an opportunity to catch them off guard would indeed require a catalyst.
"Are you sure you're okay using the Grain Avoidance Instruction to refine the world's origin?"
Seemingly somewhat uneasy, Ren Anran couldn't help but check Zhang Xuezhou's body repeatedly.
"I was feeling unwell before, but I recovered after defeating Xuanming," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Although I don't know if there's anything wrong with this method of refining by consuming, it's a good thing that I haven't noticed any adverse effects!"
"He's so powerful at refining the world's origin, why didn't your refining of the world's origin produce a strong effect?" Zhang Manqian asked, puzzled. "Logically speaking, you should at least possess some of his abilities, so why are you only becoming more intimate with nature?"
"It might be a problem with my refining method!"
Zhang Xuezhou pondered the primordial aura surrounding the white-haired old man's body, and then considered the primordial aura sealed by his own Zodiac Palace. He realized that their approaches to each other were different, and therefore their methods of absorption were also different.
When Zuo Lianguang practiced Eagle Claw Skill, he needed to soak his hands in a secret medicine, while Zhang Xuezhou swallowed the medicine whole. The results for the two were bound to be different.
Zhang Xuezhou had no other way to seize the world's origin. He basically just grabbed what he could, then took everything, and repeatedly weakened everything the white-haired old man possessed until the old man's world origin was exhausted. Zhang Xuezhou felt that the matter was settled then.
"My refining method has some problems, more or less!"
Zhang Xuezhou retrieved the Tongtian Jade Ruler, which originated from the tomb of Emperor Luofu.
If Xuanming hadn't told him, he wouldn't have known that this was Huang Daoxian's vessel for extracting the fortune of the Luofu Dynasty, and that it also contained the accumulated fortune power of Huang Daoxian, thus maintaining the existence of the Fortune Body.
Zhang Xuezhou had no qualms about uncovering Huang Daoxian's secrets, after all, Huang Daoxian was his defeated opponent, and these items were his spoils of war, so it was normal for Zhang Xuezhou to use them.
However, Zhang Xuezhou's Fortune Technique entered a rather awkward stage. No matter how he practiced or who he defeated, Zhang Xuezhou's dragon-fish body did not change, but only continued to generate dragon-fish.
In this world, he needs to contend with Qinmeng, a half-step ascendant; in the other world, he faces even more adversaries.
If Zhang Xuezhou wanted to prepare the resources for advancing to his True Self as early as possible, he could only place his hopes on the Yin-Yang Secret Land.
If this first secret place in the Southern Jambudvipa Continent can be restored, the Spiritual Qi accumulated over a hundred years will surely burst forth, which may provide him with the enormous Spiritual Qi needed to step into the True Self Realm.
The array artifacts he acquires are likely to conflict with the Emperor Qin. Even if he manages to leave safely based on his individual strength, he will most likely encounter Fortune War.
