Chapter 286: Spatial Mystery and Spiritual Awakening

Chapter 286: Spatial Mystery and Spiritual Awakening

In the command center outside the Star Realm, Lin Yue, Hai Xueyuan, and a group of Flying Heaven Warriors watched the projection in awe. The intense battle they witnessed left them concerned.

They wished they could personally enter the Star Realm to fight against the Blood Serpent Usai and the Golden Furred Ape Zi Pa, but this was only a Second Level Star Realm, inaccessible to external Flying Heaven Warriors.

These Flying Heaven Warriors were stationed outside the Star Realm channel, preventing the Cloud Beast Civilization's army from invading the Blue Star.

External Flying Heaven Warriors were unable to enter.

Usai and Zi Pa, the Flying Heaven Beasts of the Cloud Beast Civilization, had broken through within the Star Realm and were now permanently trapped inside, unable to escape.

However, today's battle saw a sudden reversal.

"What about the shot that just exploded?"

"How did Li Yuan manage that?"

"This gun technique?" It wasn't surprising that the Flying Heaven Warriors were stunned; Li Yuan's performance was truly terrifying.

Through the light screen, they couldn't sense the specific fluctuations of heaven and earth, nor could they grasp the specific mysteries.

They only felt that the shot was both fast and bizarre.

Facing Li Yuan's displayed gun technique, the Blood Serpent Usai and the Golden Furred Ape Zi Pa chose to flee, indicating the formidable power of that shot.

Subconsciously, Lin Yue and Hai Xueyuan exchanged a glance.

Both of them were well aware of Li Yuan's specific situation.

Hai Xueyuan, in particular, had personally sparred with Li Yuan and understood his combat abilities the best.

Even if Li Yuan had advanced from the initial stage of True Intention to the intermediate stage, the effect would likely not be as profound when facing the Blood Serpent Usai. Back then, when Usai fought against Rudnev, he was only slightly at a disadvantage, but his life was never in danger.

The mystery of wind? Even more impossible! After all, Li Yuan hadn't even formed the embryonic form of Wind Essence before.

The two powerful Flying Heaven Warriors had incredibly high standards, and based on Li Yuan's performance, they considered a possibility—the combination of True Intention and Mystery.

"Could it be that Li Yuan has already condensed Wind Essence? And he's combined the mysteries of two True Intentions?" Hai Xueyuan held his breath, feeling his heart tremble at the thought.

A year ago, when Li Yuan left Kunlun Martial University, he seemed to have not even entered the door of Wind Mystery.

In just one year, he had condensed True Intention?

"The combination of True Intention and Mystery," Lin Yue thought further, "In the history of the Seven Star Civilization, there are hardly any who can achieve the combination of True Intentions."

"He's truly a monster!"

"No wonder Lan Yue believes that Li Yuan will become comparable to Dong Fang Ji and even surpass him in the future," Lin Yue recalled.

Recently, Lin Lan Yue returned from the Inner World and visited Lin Yue before going to the God Warrior Realm. They had a deep exchange, during which they discussed Li Yuan.

The combination of different True Intentions and Mysteries can indeed complement each other's flaws, resulting in formidable power.

The higher-ups of the Seven Star Civilization are well aware of this.

However, why is it that they rarely encourage the combination of True Intentions and Mysteries? Or is it that they don't encourage it at all?

The reason is that pure enlightenment of multiple True Intentions of Heaven and Earth is challenging, and most individuals only have the talent for one Law Mystery.

This is just the first step, and countless people have already been defeated.

The real challenge lies in the second step—combining True Intention and Mystery... The difficulty is far greater than simply comprehending True Intention. Throughout the history of the Seven Star Civilization, even among Demigods, few have achieved the combination of True Intention and Mystery.

Li Yuan's success can be attributed to two factors: first, his top-tier external cultivation conditions, allowing him to progress rapidly on the path of two True Intentions.

Second, his natural talent.

He seems to have an innate knack for combining the two Law Mysteries... This was what impressed the Demigod Lie Feng, who, before Li Yuan's apprenticeship, believed that Li Yuan was on the right path and encouraged him to persevere.

"If it's indeed the combination of True Intention and Mystery..."

"In such a short time, he's comprehended two True Intentions, and in the future, he might even cross the threshold of Law Mysteries... What if he combines Law Mysteries?" Lin Yue couldn't dare to imagine.

He envisioned an incredibly terrifying existence rising at a shocking speed.

In the Luo Hai Star Realm, above the continuous mountain range in the void, Yan Jing and Luo Chan stood in shock.

"Why is Li Yuan so strong? Why did you ask us to flee first?" Luo Chan couldn't help but ask.

"He must have just broken through," Yan Jing said with a smile, "Or perhaps... he doesn't even know how strong he is."

"Let's go, we'll catch up."

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Luo Chan and Yan Jing abruptly halted, then transformed into two streaks of light, dashing towards Li Yuan and his group.

---

Whoosh! Li Yuan's movements were as swift as a gust of wind, rapidly closing in on the Blood Serpent Usai and the Golden Furred Ape Zi Pa.

"I didn't expect this!" Li Yuan thought as he pursued the two Flying Heaven Beasts, still pondering the previous scene in his mind.

"I observed the body technique of that black flying snake and gained some insights, initially condensing the embryonic form of Wind Essence... and it led to such a transformation."

As soon as the embryonic form of Wind Essence was condensed, the two True Intentions of Earth and Wind combined, causing Li Yuan to sense his perception abilities skyrocketing. In that instant, he perceived the vast and unfathomable heaven and earth, even touching upon the deeper mysteries of its operation, space... infinite space...

Endless!

The vastness of the earth is primarily due to the vastness of space.

The undulating waves of wind are also due to the freedom of movement in infinite space.

The vast heaven and earth, the infinite starry sky, all exist within space.

Countless Law Mysteries operate within space.

"【Combination of Earth and Wind True Intentions, comprehension of a thread of Mystery】." Li Yuan glanced at this prompt on the Divine Palace panel.

However, there was no change on the Divine Palace panel, no indication of '1% Spatial Mystery' or similar reminders.

Li Yuan was both surprised and amazed.

"The mystery of space?"

"Could it be the strongest space law in the legends?" Li Yuan found it hard to believe. "By combining the mysteries of Earth and Wind, I can actually touch the mystery of space?"

The mystery of space, according to the information in Li Yuan's Seven Star Civilization database, had no records.

Perhaps the relevant information had not yet been made available to Li Yuan.

The reason Li Yuan knew about this was due to the heritage of the Ancient Torch Deity, which had clear reminders and explanations in the cultivation messages of the "Myriad Body Divine Body."

If one wanted to cultivate the "Myriad Body Divine Body" to the sixth stage, they must have a certain level of understanding of space.

At the same time, the heritage of the "Myriad Body Divine Body" had a description of the 'Space Law.'

Space and time.

These are the origins of all laws, the cornerstone of the universe's operation.

Laws like the Wind Law and Earth Law are the manifestations of the universe's operation.

Even Half-Deities and many Flying Heaven Martial Artists strive to comprehend the threshold of space, but it is usually only Deities who can gradually touch upon the mystery of space...

"No display."

"That means my understanding is too shallow, and I can't even sense 1% of the mystery of space." Li Yuan secretly thought, "The most I can do is to continue comprehending the true intentions of Earth and Wind, striving to combine the two."

Li Yuan didn't dare to hope that he could comprehend the space law at this moment.

It's too unrealistic!

Without sufficient life level or strong enough spirit power, one cannot even perceive the vast fluctuations of space.

"I just borrowed the combination of the true intentions of Earth and Wind, and vaguely sensed a hint of the mystery." Li Yuan had a glimmer of expectation, "So, by combining the mysteries of Earth and Wind, there's a chance to gradually comprehend the mystery of space?"

This would be a tremendous surprise.

"I've only just touched upon a hint of the mystery, not even close to the threshold." Li Yuan thought, "What I can do is to continue comprehending the true intentions of Earth and Wind, striving to combine the two."

"By following the natural flow of comprehension, perhaps one day I can truly cross the threshold of the mystery of space."

In the past, Li Yuan comprehended the mysteries of the two laws, merely wanting to follow the path of the Deity in the Martial God's heritage, maximizing his own strength.

But now, he had higher pursuits and aspirations—the mystery of space!

---

The narration slows down.

In reality, it took less than a second for Li Yuan to figure everything out, and it didn't hinder his pursuit.

---

After the breakthrough, Li Yuan burst forth with astonishing speed, swiftly chasing after Blood Serpent Usai and Purple Furred Ape Zipa.

"Hua!"

A long spear suddenly thrust forward, following the invisible path of heaven and earth, emitting a dazzling and mysterious spear glow. The spear glow was enigmatic and unpredictable, piercing through the sky and directly attacking Blood Serpent Usai.

Blood Serpent Usai!

According to the intelligence, he was the strongest leader in Usai's Cloud Beast Civilization, making him Li Yuan's primary target.

"Die!" Blood Serpent Usai roared, waving his sharp claws while spewing endless frost from his mouth. Layers of frost condensed in front of him, forming a giant barrier.

"Boom!"

The power of the spear reached its peak, directly piercing through the layers of frost. The spear tip's power erupted, instantly shattering the layers of ice.

Without pause, the spear's power remained undiminished, slashing through the sky. It was like a sea dragon, directly striking Blood Serpent Usai.

"Hua! Hua! Hua!"

A torrent of spear shadows enveloped Blood Serpent Usai, each shadow enigmatic and formidable, containing terrifying power.

"Not good!" Blood Serpent Usai's expression changed, as his greatest fear had finally arrived.

Even with divine consciousness sensing, he couldn't distinguish which phantom was Li Yuan's true body.

"Rumble~"

Streams of frost crazily erupted from Usai, spreading out in a hundred-meter radius, attempting to freeze Li Yuan's phantoms... "Shua~" In the void, streams of pale yellow air currents also appeared, madly colliding with the frost.

The combination of the Earth and Wind True Intents' mysteries was no less formidable than a high-level True Intent.

In an instant, the True Intent domain formed, though it still fell short of Usai's domain Star Technique, it could barely hold its ground.

Boom~ The collision of the two domains also ensured that Li Yuan's Phantom Body was not greatly affected.

"Hua!"

"Hua!" "Hua!" Usai completely lost his temper, his sharp claws whistling, wings like blades, and his massive tail lashing out... Every part of his body was used as a weapon, frantically fending off Li Yuan's bizarre and unpredictable gunplay, where it was difficult to discern the real from the fake.

"Pfft!"

"Boom!" Countless scales flew, and a large amount of blood splattered, with even flesh being directly torn apart by Li Yuan's gun. Usai was completely suppressed by Li Yuan.

Perhaps the previous shot was a fake attack from the Phantom Body.

But the next shot became real.

Phantom Body emphasized the word 'phantom', and amidst the continuous crisscrossing streams of light, Li Yuan kept changing the position of his true body.

"Zhipa, save me!" Usai, the Blood Serpent, frantically transmitted a sound.

"Escape!"

"Escape!"

Boom! The ape Zi Pa went crazy, transforming into a stream of light and quickly disappearing into the distance. Seeing Usai's tragic state, his mind was filled with only one thought—escape!

"Damn it!" Usai roared in anger, but he couldn't change his fate.

Even if he tried to escape, Li Yuan's speed was too fast. Li Yuan repeatedly entangled him, causing his speed to decrease sharply, and then he was forced to fight back... Usai's injuries became increasingly severe.

Boom!

Usai's massive tail suddenly lashed out, fiercely striking the mountain peak and causing the entire mountain to collapse.

The battle between the two powerful beings led to the collapse of one mountain peak after another.

Li Yuan had to admit that the vitality of Flying Heaven Warriors was indeed astonishing. Usai, the Blood Serpent, wore a complete set of battle armor and unleashed powerful Source Energy... Even as the Black Star Gun repeatedly pierced his body, it only managed to penetrate slightly.

However, as the injuries worsened, Usai's resistance weakened.

"Hua!"

When another domineering shot approached, Usai, the Blood Serpent, tried to dodge, but his body was half a beat too slow. His enormous eyes narrowed, and a trace of fear flashed through them as he could only watch helplessly as the gun pierced him.

"Pfft~" The long gun pierced the serpent's eyes, and in the instant the gun fired, Usai's head was completely shredded.

He lost consciousness completely.

The surging Source Energy and battle armor within his body instantly lost their effectiveness. Following that, his massive serpent body collapsed.

Usai, the Blood Serpent, was dead.

【You have killed a Tier Three creature, broken the Divine Palace restraint, and obtained Spirituality nourishment.】

【After reaching Spiritual Power level 37, the Spirituality awakening limit will increase from 45% to 50%. Since the Divine Palace restraint has been broken, the Spirituality awakening limit will continue to increase to 60% when it reaches 50%.】 Two consecutive Divine Palace prompts flashed by.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan immediately sensed and muttered to himself, "The Spiritual Power requirement is actually level 37."

A long time ago.

Based on past experiences, Li Yuan had speculated that to increase the Spirituality awakening limit from 50% to 60%, one must kill a Tier Three Beast of another race.

However, killing a Tier Three Beast is not enough. First, one must reach 50%.

This means that there is an extremely high requirement for Spiritual Power. Initially, Li Yuan guessed it to be level 35, but even after reaching level 35, the Spirituality awakening limit did not increase.

Today, it has finally been confirmed.

Spiritual Power must reach level 37.

"Awakening a Six Star Vein, the life tier limit is 36.9. Unless a Seven Star Vein is awakened, breaking through is impossible." Li Yuan thought, "The difficulty of reaching Spiritual Power level 37 is not too high, but it will still take some time."

...

Whoosh!

After killing Usai, the Blood Serpent, Li Yuan's body swiftly approached the three figures engaged in intense combat several kilometers away.

That massive golden spider was entangled by Yan Jing and Luo Chan, making it difficult to escape.

As for the ape Zi Pa? He was a Flying Sky Warrior and had already escaped dozens of kilometers away while Li Yuan was fighting Usai. He gradually disappeared into the vastness of heaven and earth.

Boom! Li Yuan's speed didn't slow down at all. He glanced at the golden spider, which was a Tier Two Beast that had condensed True Intention. Its web, suspended in mid-air, also restricted Yan Jing and Luo Chan.

"Hua!" A gun beam slashed through the sky, directly attacking the spider Kim.

"Roar~" The golden spider emitted a strange cry, and its eight spider legs rapidly retreated, trying to avoid the gun.

"Pfft~" The seemingly missed shot suddenly transformed, splitting into three. One of the gun beams seemed to distort the void, thoroughly piercing the spider Kim's head.

"This?" Yan Jing and Luo Chan stood by, their eyes wide open in shock, and their hearts chilled.

It was indeed terrifying.

Li Yuan's attack power wasn't considered too strong, and compared to Rudnev before his breakthrough, he only had a slight advantage... But Li Yuan's combination of Earth and Wind True Intents' mysteries granted his gunplay the characteristics of both veins.

The threat was astonishing!

This was why Usai, the Blood Serpent, could survive against Rudnev but met his demise against Li Yuan.

"Yan Jing, Luo Chan, continue clearing out the other targets." Li Yuan's voice resonated in their minds, "I'll go chase down that Flying Beast."

Boom! Li Yuan's speed didn't slow down at all. He soared into the sky, chasing after the ape Zi Pa who had escaped fifty to sixty kilometers away.
