Chapter 101: My Realization, My Realization, My Realization, My Realization (Seeking Subscription)
In a mysterious space, twelve figures watched Lin Yuan with keen interest. Even if in the end, Lin Yuan could only choose one of them as his master, they were all curious as to which stone statue he would choose to contemplate.
The 136 stone statues in the Seventh Star Cave, the evolution paths they contained, were at least of the sixth tier, and as for the more than ten statues that were over ten meters tall, they possessed evolution paths beyond the sixth tier.
Of course, the most difficult ones to comprehend were these very statues. The evolution paths beyond the sixth tier contained profound and complex rules, far surpassing those of the sixth tier, and the challenge of understanding them was unimaginable.
Even if one only needed to grasp the third and fourth tiers that corresponded to their own strength, it would still be incredibly difficult.
This was also the reason why the stone tablet in the Seventh Star Cave advised caution and warned against biting off more than one could chew. Forcibly attempting to comprehend those ten-odd statues could result in a lack of time and possible elimination.
"Hmm? Why did he choose the 'Celestial Wind' statue?"
"Could it be that this Lin Yuan has an affinity for the rule of wind?"
"The Celestial Wind evolution path is of the sixth tier. Although it's not as impressive as the sixteen taller statues, it's still decent."
As Lin Yuan paused before the statue of a 'Soaring Great Peng', the twelve figures began to speculate.
"Maybe he's just taking a look."
"Yes, that's possible. No tester has ever immediately found the statue that suits them."
"Didn't those three Red Marks also take some time before finally deciding which statue to contemplate?"
The twelve figures offered their conjectures.
"The Celestial Wind evolution path?" Gu Ze was slightly taken aback. He wasn't adept at the rule of wind, and if Lin Yuan chose this statue... He glanced at his second senior brother. He recalled that his second senior brother's path should involve the rule of wind.
"The Celestial Wind evolution path?" Lin Yuan opened his eyes, his mind swirling with fragments of information about this evolution path.
"This is a sixth-tier evolution path, and it's far more profound than the Buddha evolution path." Lin Yuan was delighted. Even among sixth-tier evolution paths, there were varying degrees of quality. It depended on the level of the person who created the path. And Lin Yuan could clearly sense that the Celestial Wind evolution path had a more complete explanation of the essence of the rule of wind.
"The wind of heaven and earth," Lin Yuan breathed.
Wind was everywhere. It could be gentle, but it also had a fierce side. The rule of wind described in the Celestial Wind evolution path was, of course, only a small part of the overall rule, but even so, it benefited Lin Yuan greatly.
"The wind of heaven and earth is also the Tai Chi," Lin Yuan quickly absorbed the essence of the Celestial Wind evolution path, constantly improving his martial arts evolution path.
Tai Chi gives birth to all things and accommodates all things.
Half an hour later, Lin Yuan opened his eyes again. The Celestial Wind evolution path had helped and influenced him greatly, but his immediate priority was not to dwell on it. Lin Yuan looked up at the other hundred-plus statues, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Sixth-tier evolution paths were worth at least tens of billions of dollars on the Alliance Mall app. But now, they were piled up in front of him.
And— Lin Yuan's gaze rested on the sixteen statues that were over ten meters tall. The statues that contained the sixth-tier evolution paths were only two to three meters tall. So, the evolution paths contained in these taller statues must transcend the sixth tier!
With this realization, Lin Yuan took a deep breath. Evolution paths beyond the sixth tier were something he couldn't even find on the mall app due to his insufficient permissions and conditions.
So far, The only evolution path beyond the sixth tier that Lin Yuan had come across
was the 'Ancient God' evolution path cultivated by Fang Qing.
However, the 'Ancient God' evolution path had many cultivation restrictions, and Lin Yuan couldn't obtain the complete path,
he could only communicate and slowly comprehend it through sparring with Fang Qing.
But now, there were sixteen evolution paths of this level, presented to Lin Yuan.
"One by one," Lin Yuan said to himself. "No need to rush. We have a whole month."
Lin Yuan calmed himself and turned to look once more at the 'Soaring Great Peng' statue before him. According to the rules of the Seventh Star Cave, as long as he could comprehend the evolution path from the statue and then infuse the statue with the aura of that evolution path, he would pass the test of the Seventh Star Cave.
In a sense, Lin Yuan had already passed the test, as he had comprehended the 'Celestial Wind' evolution path and could manifest its aura at any time.
But after glancing at the other hundred or so evolution paths, Lin Yuan decided to stay a while longer. After all, as long as he passed the test within a month, there was no set time limit.
"Next," Lin Yuan stood up and walked towards the nearest statue.
This statue resembled a mouse, vivid and lifelike, and it seemed to contain a piece of land within it.
In the mysterious space, the twelve figures reacted differently as Lin Yuan left the 'Soaring Great Peng' statue. Some looked relieved, while others seemed disappointed.
"Looks like the Celestial Wind evolution path isn't a good fit," one of them said.
"Indeed. It makes sense. Lin Yuan contemplates the yin and yang attributes, so even if there's a more suitable evolution path for him, it wouldn't be related to the wind attribute."
"We have plenty of time. Let's just observe. Although each statue contains a complete evolution path, it's not easy to comprehend it," the twelve figures conversed casually.
Their attention wasn't solely on Lin Yuan, but also on the three Red Marks.
At that moment, the three Red Marks testers were each seated before different statues.
The silver-haired woman, Yin Ling, sat before a 'Rubik's Cube' statue that was twelve meters tall but could also seem as small as a fist.
The burly man, with his height elevated by nearly three meters and a bloodline mark on his forehead, was also deeply focused on comprehending his chosen statue.
They had all chosen statues that were over ten meters tall, disregarding the other statues that were only two to three meters tall.
"Why did Lin Yuan leave again?"
"Hmm? That's odd. He only sat there for a short while."
Time passed slowly, and the twelve figures soon noticed something unusual about Lin Yuan.
He had never stayed before a statue for more than two hours. Usually, he would get up and leave after an hour at most, moving on to the next statue.
But this wasn't really strange.
After all, not every statue was suitable for Lin Yuan. He had to be selective.
However, the other testers chose their statues by observing all the statues from a distance. Each statue contained a different evolution path, and their auras would naturally differ. By taking in all the statues at once, it was easy to spot the ones that clashed with their own auras.
This way, they could then choose from the statues whose auras resonated with their own, making the process much more efficient.
But Lin Yuan was doing things differently. He was trying each statue one by one, without any initial selection.
"It doesn't matter. It's good to take a look at each statue," one of the twelve figures said.
"This way, he won't miss any that might be extremely suitable for him.
Within the mysterious space, the twelve figures were growing increasingly perplexed by Lin Yuan's actions. Nearly three days had passed, and Lin Yuan had inspected dozens of statues without making a decision. Instead, he continued on to the next statue, prompting a chorus of whispers among the onlookers.
"He's wasting too much time."
"Does Lin Yuan have some sort of decision-making phobia?"
"Could it be that none of these dozens of statues suit him?"
The twelve voices murmured their confusion. Initially, they were pleased to see Lin Yuan pausing at statues with evolution paths similar to his own. But as time went on, their excitement faded.
Lin Yuan's pauses were fleeting, so brief that no one could believe he had truly comprehended the evolution path within the statues. It seemed more like he was merely sampling each statue before moving on to the next.
Even the three figures above began to lose patience.
"The Yang Evolution Path," Lin Yuan murmured as he stepped away from another statue. This evolution path, aligned with the Yang attribute, could complement the solar aspect of the Taiji Doctrine.
"The Yang of all things," Lin Yuan mused, his expression thoughtful. Even without merging it with the Yin, the extreme power of the sun was terrifyingly adept at destruction.
Just as Lin Yuan turned to move towards the next statue, a buzz filled the air. In the distance, a statue began to glow, and the figure standing before it vanished.
"Someone has comprehended an evolution path?"
"It's a Gold Mark Evolver!"
"Well, let's keep at it, folks."
The numerous evolvers interrupted their contemplations, their voices hushed with speculation. Although the test simply required one to comprehend an evolution path within a month to pass, the sight of others succeeding stirred complex emotions.
It was like an exam where seeing someone submit their answers early could create pressure, regardless of whether that person's performance was exceptional or not.
"He left so easily?" Lin Yuan blinked in surprise, then quickly realized that his situation was different from the others.
Blessed with his heaven-defying comprehension talent, the Seventh Star Cave presented Lin Yuan with an unprecedented opportunity. Every moment he spent there meant another increment of self-improvement.
However, from the perspective of the other testers, it was a different story. They had toiled tirelessly to comprehend a single evolution path and lacked the energy and ability to attempt a second one. Thus, they naturally chose to leave without hesitation.
"It seems that evolution paths beyond the sixth tier are far more challenging than those of the sixth tier," Lin Yuan mused, his gaze drifting towards the silver-haired woman and the other two Red Marks testers.
The first person to pass the star cave test was a Gold Mark tester. While this might not indicate superior comprehension ability compared to the three Red Marks, it was because the statue they chose contained a sixth-tier evolution path. The three Red Marks testers, on the other hand, were tackling evolution paths beyond the sixth tier, a task of far greater difficulty.
"I shall continue," Lin Yuan said to himself after a moment's thought. With that, he turned and made his way towards the next statue.
Time flowed on. Two days later, Lin Yuan found himself at the center of the mountain peak, standing before the towering twelve-meter-tall 'Rubik's Cube' statue.
Even from a distance, he could sense the ripples of spatial energy emanating from it. Though it paled in comparison to the spatial rift in the Godly Weapon World, the spatial power it exuded was coherent and orderly.
"An evolution path beyond the sixth tier," Lin Yuan murmured, his expression solemn. This was the first time he had attempted to comprehend a statue over ten meters tall. Compared to the 'Rubik's Cube,' the other statues, standing only two or three meters high, seemed like mere pebbles.
"Let's begin," Lin Yuan said, steeling himself. He raised his head, his eyes fixed on the colossal 'Rubik's Cube' before him.
