Chapter 177

"Perhaps I was overthinking."

"Even though my clever disciple has grasped the basics of spatial rules..."

"...breaking through to the eighth rank is not so easy."

The Lord of Red Kun comforted himself.

Considering his numerous opportunities, even usurping a young Starry Sea Kun and crossing into the eighth rank was incredibly difficult.

Even if Lin Yuan's talent surpassed his own at the beginning, facing the bottleneck of the eighth rank, he couldn't simply leap over it, could he?

"Sigh..."

"Sometimes, when disciples are too extraordinary, being a master doesn't seem to have much meaning."

The Lord of Red Kun sighed.

Inside the palace of the Thirteenth Peak.

"The Red Spirit Liquid has arrived."

Lin Yuan looked at a small water pot in front of him.

The small water pot was a spatial storage treasure, appearing to be only palm-sized, but it contained Red Spirit Liquid, equivalent to the weight of a small water pool.

"Let's begin."

Lin Yuan pulled out the stopper from the small water pot.

Although he hadn't decided on the seventh rank of the martial path evolution, he had already settled on the sixth rank.

With the Red Spirit Liquid in the water pot, Lin Yuan could reach the limit of the sixth rank in a short time.

"I wonder what kind of body divine technique will emerge this time."

Lin Yuan's face revealed a sense of anticipation.

In the Immortal World, the body divine techniques of the body cultivation lineage depended on the strange powers contained deep within one's own bloodline.

Lin Yuan's creation of the sixth rank of the martial path evolution pathway borrowed heavily from the body cultivation lineage, especially in terms of bodily excavation.

Therefore—

Theoretically, the sixth rank of the martial path could also give birth to body divine techniques.

Lin Yuan, redoing the sixth rank, would result in different body divine techniques being born due to differences in the body.

Gulp...

Lin Yuan picked up the small water pot and swallowed all of the Red Spirit Liquid.

As the liquid entered his throat, it turned into pure energy, nourishing his limbs and bones.

Several days later.

Lin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

"I've reached the peak of the sixth rank."

Lin Yuan didn't dare to continue breaking through.

Now, as long as he wished, he could quickly advance to the seventh rank.

However, Lin Yuan wasn't quite satisfied with that seventh rank; it didn't quite match the previous five ranks of the martial path evolution.

"The seventh rank of the martial path evolution should have sufficient insight into spatial rules, at least an understanding of spatial rules."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

As he delved deeper into spatial rules, his understanding of this aspect grew.

The essence of the martial path evolution pathway was centered on the Tao of Tai Chi, encompassing all paths, and then controlling them all.

By incorporating one's own understanding and insight into the "path" and perfecting the Tao of Tai Chi, one could then control all paths through the Tao of Tai Chi.

Lin Yuan felt that for him, the most perfect approach to the seventh rank of the martial path evolution pathway was to integrate spatial rules.

Of course.

This was only for Lin Yuan himself.

Other evolvers didn't necessarily have to integrate spatial rules; they could choose other rules.

Seeing which aspect they excelled in, integrating spatial rules was extremely difficult, and only seventh-rank evolvers had confidence in doing so.

But integrating other rules had much lower thresholds.

For example, in the test world of the Seven-Star Cave, the evolver with crimson mark tested brute strength, which was an entry into the rule of strength.

Being able to enter the rule of strength with a fourth-rank body was indeed genius, but it also meant that this could be achieved.

Other martial path evolvers only needed to enter a rule suitable for themselves at the peak of the sixth rank to have a chance to advance to the seventh rank.

"The body divine technique is awakening" Lin Yuan carefully felt the changes in his body.

Because he sensed that deep within his bloodline, a strange power was awakening and condensing.

This was similar to when he first gave birth to body divine techniques in the Immortal World.

"It should take another day or two."

Lin Yuan speculated in his mind.

The birth of a body divine technique was not instantaneous but required time to awaken.

At the current rate of awakening, Lin Yuan estimated that the body divine technique would be born in one or two days.

"Hmm?"

"Is Fang Qing coming to see me?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the visitation records and found that Fang Qing wanted to see him.

Virtual world.

Personal space.

Lin Yuan and Fang Qing sat facing each other.

"No need to be so formal, just like before is fine." Lin Yuan noticed that Fang Qing was somewhat nervous and casually said.

He and Fang Qing had a close relationship; since the test of the Seven-Star Cave, Fang Qing had helped him by providing relevant information.

Later, facing the suppression of Black Prison Ao, Lin Yuan was condemned by billions of citizens of the Canglan Star.

It was also Fang Qing who came forward and spared no effort, providing a lot of favors to rebuild trade relations for the Canglan Star.

Although.

What Black Prison Ao could do back then was limited, and external public opinion had no effect on Lin Yuan at all.

But Fang Qing did want to help him sincerely.

"Brother Lin, you're so relaxed, just like before." Fang Qing let out a sigh of relief and squeezed out a smile, saying, "Brother Lin, your current status is the peak master of the Red Kun lineage."

Although Fang Qing said so, the tense heart finally relaxed.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that he had helped Lin Yuan through the difficult times.

Otherwise, with Lin Yuan's current status, he probably wouldn't even have a chance to see him.

As far as Fang Qing knew, after Lin Yuan arrived at the main star of Red Kun, he hardly saw any outsiders.

"How have you been recently?"

Lin Yuan casually asked.

"It's okay."

Fang Qing whispered, "Many people know about my relationship with Brother Lin and want to get close to me, hoping to use me to get in touch with Brother Lin."

When the Canglan Star was suppressed by the Black Prison Family, Fang Qing stood up for his friend.

Later, this friend transformed and became the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Star Domain.

Among them, the one whose identity changed the most, aside from Lin Yuan and his family, was Fang Qing.

After all, who didn't know that Fang Qing had once helped him when the Thirteenth Peak Master hid his identity?

Regardless.

In the Red Kun lineage.

Fang Qing was already considered one of the Thirteenth Peak Masters'closest friend.

Even the core members of the Red Kun lineage treated Fang Qing with great respect.

"Hahaha."

Lin Yuan laughed.

Before Lin Yuan revealed his identity, many people tried every means to contact Fang Qing through him.

Now, someone else was racking their brains, trying to get in touch with him through Fang Qing.

The change before and after made Lin Yuan feel quite emotional.

"The Thirteenth Peak is just established. Do you want to come and help me?" (Awwww how cute)

After chatting with Fang Qing for a while, Lin Yuan casually said.

Everyone knows that joining the Thirteenth Peak now is equivalent to being the first to join the Thirteenth Peak Master, and in the future, they will be senior members.

"Thank you, Brother Lin."

Upon hearing this, Fang Qing immediately stood up respectfully.

This sentence from Lin Yuan was equivalent to letting Fang Qing ascend to the sky in one step in the Red Kun lineage.

Becoming a master's subordinate or even a confidant, how glorious would that be?

After chatting with Lin Yuan, Fang Qing returned to his personal space.

"Fang kid."

"How was what I said before? Your Brother Lin is destined for a great future."

The old man with white beard said proudly.

As a spiritual life, the old man with the white beard didn't have much strength, but his vision was extremely sharp.

"In the future, follow your Brother Lin properly and do things for him. Don't think about anything else, understand?"

The old man with the white beard reminded.

He knew very well that people like Lin Yuan, who were mad about cultivation, generally wouldn't bother with too many things.

But if Fang Qing tried to gain something for himself through this, then he would be making a big mistake.

"Understood."

Fang Qing nodded.

As one of the first members to join the Thirteenth Peak, it wasn't difficult for Fang Qing to be promoted to a core member of the Red Kun lineage.

With such a great opportunity, if Fang Qing still thought about other benefits, then he would really be betraying Lin Yuan's trust.

"Keep practicing well."

"Your starting point now has far surpassed the old master's."

The tone of the old man with the white beard suddenly became low.

His old master was an evolver at the sixth rank, although he had some reputation in the Red Kun Star Domain and the surrounding star domains.

But how could he compare to Fang Qing now? It's good to seek refuge under a big tree, especially under the Thirteenth Peak Master.

Virtual world.

Personal space.

Lin Yuan opened his personal settlement panel.

"The settlement of the income from the martial path evolution pathway."

Lin Yuan glanced at the final amount.

"2896.7 billion civilization coins?"

"So much?"

Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised.

This unit is in billions.

"Mainly because of the effort in the sixth rank."

Lin Yuan glanced at the sales figures of various rank paths.

It turned out that the sixth rank had been purchased over a thousand times.

It's worth noting that Lin Yuan priced the sixth rank at five billion.

With over a thousand purchases of the sixth rank, that would be five trillion.

Adding the three-seven split with the human civilization, after deducting taxes, the final income would be close to two trillion.

"The sixth rank was purchased over a thousand times, mostly out of curiosity. As for the evolvers who really intend to practice to the extreme of the fifth rank and intend to purchase the sixth rank, there are none."

Lin Yuan knew very well how these thousand purchases came about.

The martial path evolution pathway soared in the rankings of the Red Kun evolution list, which was believed to be the handiwork of a certain evolutionary scholar.

Naturally, it aroused the curiosity of many high-level evolvers.

So whenever Lin Yuan updated the latest rank paths of the martial path evolution pathway, there would be a bunch of evolvers buying them directly.

Their reason for purchase was probably not for cultivation but purely out of curiosity, wanting to see why the martial path evolution pathway had such potential.

"Time is still too short."

"If it had been a hundred or two hundred years ago, when fourth and fifth rank evolvers were born among the martial path evolvers, that would be the hottest time to purchase the sixth rank."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Momentary curiosity couldn't generate a steady stream of income.

But as long as the martial path evolution pathway spread wider and more evolvers practiced it, that would be the real gold mine.

"Thirty trillion."

"It's just the income from one settlement."

Lin Yuan glanced at his account balance, feeling pleased.

Although with his strength, with his identity, thirty trillion wasn't much, but for Lin Yuan, it was as good as given for free.

"I still need to push it a bit."

After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan made a decision.

The speed of cultivation of martial path evolvers was too slow now, and most martial path evolvers, without someone guiding them, were prone to take the wrong path.

"Since I have some free time now, I'll make a few episodes of martial arts analysis videos."

With a slight movement of his mind, the environment in Lin Yuan's personal space began to change.

His appearance, figure, and temperament also began to change accordingly.

Finally, the image of a thin man appeared.

"Alright."

Lin Yuan rubbed his chin.

He began to explain the martial path evolution pathway starting from the first rank.

The first rank was the beginning of the martial path evolution pathway, divided into stages such as Innate Realm, Master Realm, and Grandmaster Realm.

Among the current martial path evolvers, the number of evolvers at the first rank was the highest.

"The so-called Innate."

Lin Yuan's language was concise, using only a few thousand words to introduce the Innate Rank briefly, and then spent over ten minutes elaborating.

Time passed.

In a blink of an eye, nearly half a day had passed.

Lin Yuan successfully recorded over ten videos in total.

They included parts of the first rank, second rank, and third rank.

"It's almost done."

Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

Reviewing the first, second, and third ranks of the martial path would also be helpful for Lin Yuan.

"Upload them to the virtual world."

Lin Yuan entered the account of the martial path founder 'Yuan', and then uploaded the newly recorded over ten explanatory videos below.

"So many followers?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the number of followers of 'Yuan', which exceeded ten billion.

It's worth noting that these ten billion followers weren't ordinary citizens, but those who could enter the virtual world to watch 'Yuan' were evolvers or high-level citizens.

With a ten billion followers, 'Yuan' was not much different from some star evolvers in the Red Kun Star Domain.

"Done."

After clicking upload, it took just an instant.

Over ten explanatory videos appeared under the account of 'Yuan'.

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

The more martial path evolvers there were, especially the higher-level ones, the deeper Lin Yuan's accumulation and foundation in certain aspects would be.

In the future 'Ultimate Leap', everything would be transformed into overwhelming advantages.

After uploading the videos.

Lin Yuan didn't pay any more attention.

Instead, he contemplated the remaining spatial models.

At the entry level of spatial rules, Lin Yuan had comprehended four-fifths of the nine hundred and sixty-five spatial models.

With dozens of spatial models left, after the personal demonstration by the Red Kun Star Lord, Lin Yuan had a rough idea in his mind. With his extraordinary comprehension, comprehending them was just a matter of time.

"Comprehending nine hundred and sixty-five spatial models, at the entry level of spatial rules, should be able to create the ideal seventh rank."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Using the entry-level comprehension of spatial models, combined with the principles of Tai Chi, to create the martial path evolution pathway,

Lin Yuan had a feeling that once he entered the ideal state of the seventh rank, his strength would soar.

"The Mysterious Yellow Evolution Pathway."

After contemplating spatial rules for a while, Lin Yuan began to contemplate other evolution pathways.

Especially the spatial evolution pathways, which imprinted a certain essence of spatial rules, sometimes were not weaker than directly comprehending spatial models.

In addition.

Whenever he had spare time, Lin Yuan would also contemplate the Way of Sun and Moon. The fire rule crystal given to him by the Red Kun Star Lord had not been fully comprehended by Lin Yuan until now, and every time he watched and comprehended it, he had different feelings.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

Just as Lin Yuan was still immersed in cultivation and enlightenment.

A fluctuation that only Lin Yuan could perceive slowly spread from his bloodline.

"My bodily divine ability is about to take shape?"

Lin Yuan immediately stopped his cultivation, focusing his attention on the changes in his body.

"My second bodily divine ability."

Having experienced the formation of the first bodily divine ability, Lin Yuan had some experience this time. He carefully felt the strange power deep within his bloodline.
