Ordinary people brimd with motivation when working as long as they were filled with hope for the future while cherishing every day of their happy life. They wouldn’t feel tired even if they worked all day.
When one felt that their days were miserable and that their future was bleak… Even if they had their daily necessities in place, they would feel listless just lying down. They would beco increasingly dispirited and weak.
This was the effect of the mind!
Xu Jingming had seen the different lives and destinies of too many people in Blood Rain World! He also learned about the vast universe in the virtual world—it was filled with endless cruelty. He felt that his life was blissful enough, and he cherished every day of his life. He was just as motivated!
When practicing spearmanship, his heart was filled with joy! When he executed his spearmanship, he felt much more relaxed.
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
The spear afterimages whistled, and their trajectories beca even more erratic.
When the speartip pierced through the air, it sped up a little.
Xu Jingming practiced spearmanship for an hour under the moonlight in the martial arts arena.
Every move in Blood Rain World consud a lot of energy. Although Xu Jingming didn’t deliberately use all his strength, he only stopped when he felt extrely hungry after training for an hour.
I ate so much at night, but it has all been digested.?Only then did Xu Jingming stop.?I’m famished.
He quickly walked into the house with his spear and took out a box of flatbread.
This large flatbread was sothing he always had in his residence. He would eat a piece whenever he was hungry to relieve his hunger. Every morning, he would eat breakfast at a street stall and bring back so flatbread and hot water.
Of course, the boiling water would’ve already turned cold by nightti.
Crack…?Xu Jingming’s teeth were sharp as he ate the flatbread and drank the cold water.
I feel that my spearmanship has changed.?Xu Jingming took in the changes.?I clearly didn’t deliberately mobilize every cell and didn’t unleash my full strength, but my strength and speed have naturally increased. My spearmanship has beco faster and more ferocious.
Yes, I’ll go take a look at the virtual world.?After eating a piece of flatbread to relieve his hunger, he went offline and disappeared from his residence.
…
In the virtual world network, Xu Jingming’s martial arts arena in his personal space.
In a scene that mimicked the planet Xuan lived on, Xu Jingming began practicing his spearmanship on the mountaintop platform.
As a Lv. 6 cosmic lifeform, he trained his spear with all his might. Although it wasn’t as powerful as Xuan’s ability to shatter a planet with a single move, its might was still rather terrifying! Even though he had completely restrained his energy and didn’t release it, the shockwaves caused by the spear tore through the air and caused sand and rocks to fly in a hundred-ter radius. Trees snapped as if a storm had passed.
It’s indeed stronger. I feel that my spearmanship is stronger and that the force delivered is denser.?Xu Jingming was surprised. He opened his personal combat strength interface and saw two key points—
Beam Transformation Spear Technique (Lv. 6, 92%)
Combat Bonus: 2020%
He couldn’t help but be overjoyed when he saw these two points.
My actual combat bonus has reached 20×??Xu Jingming was pleasantly surprised.?It feels completely different from before. When I was practicing spearmanship, I felt the combination of the flow of water, the phenona of all living beings, the Earth Dao, and the Spark Dao. However, I didn’t need to consciously have them in mind when practicing. I naturally executed this spearmanship with the power stemming from my mind. Many spear Dao are naturally among them.
There was no need to be deliberate! A simple move contained profoundness and had a distilled feeling.
What’s going on? How did my actual combat reach 20×??With a thought, Xu Jingming imdiately took out a book from the void. It was the first treatise of Beam Transformation.
He carefully read the five spearmanship chapters of Beam Transformation.
Of the five spearmanship chapters, Beam Transformation has the least records but is the most crucial.?Xu Jingming understood this. In the end, all of Xuan’s spearmanship transford into one move—Beam Transformation!
It’s recorded in Beam Transformation… that if one wants to beco light with spearmanship, one has to turn their mind into light first. To transform the mind into light, one has to first ignite the light in one’s mind!
If the mind is like a dry well without any strength, the mind will naturally be extrely weak. A weak mind will never be qualified to beco a powerhouse!
The mind needs to condense the first ray of light! Once the light of the mind is ignited, it will illuminate the entire mind and make the mind forever warm. It’s like a spring source in the mind that constantly surges with spring water to nourish the mind.
The first step of Beam Transformation is to condense the ntal light.?When Xu Jingming read this sentence again and combined it with his insights today, he finally understood.
“By igniting the light of the mind, one’s mind will beco stronger. There’s no need to seek external help,” Xu Jingming muttered softly. “Regardless of the circumstances, the light of the mind will always illuminate itself. Only then can one have an undying fighting spirit.”
Previously, he had comprehended the Spark Dao. Only by attaining great perseverance, willpower, and an undying fighting spirit could one produce a spark to burn the entire world.
But in reality, although he understood that, he felt exhausted deep down! This was because he knew that the path ahead was too difficult, and looking to the left and right… He was the number one genius on Earth, and his evolutionary speed was far ahead. He was the person with the highest attainnts in the evolutionary path on Earth.
The civilization’s protection period ended in half a year.
The path to Lv. 9 was extrely far.
Great perseverance? Great determination? Unquenchable fighting spirit?
But where did this unquenchable fighting spirit co from?
People got tired. They would get ntally exhausted.
Cherish the mont and ignite the ntal light. As long as the ntal light shines, there will be inexhaustible ntal strength, Xu Jingming thought.
And now, I guess this is basic mastery for Beam Transformation??Xu Jingming also noticed his spearmanship level.?Lv. 6 92%? My actual combat bonus has already reached 20×, but I’m still stuck at Lv. 6… Doesn’t this an that my mind is weak? And this is after I’ve ignited the ntal light!
According to the experience of cosmic citizens, Lv. 6 cosmic lifeforms had varying combat bonuses. It could go as high as 20×, but they usually didn’t break through even at that level because their minds were weaker.
It’s alright. Lv. 6 92% isn’t far from Lv. 7. This ans that although my mind is weak, it’s not too embarrassing. According to the introduction in the legacy—?
Xu Jingming flipped through the first treatise of Beam Transformation in his hand.?As my ntal strength becos greater, the ntal impact on my body will increase! Every cell will appear to have its own will. Only then can life evolve at a deeper level.
Without a powerful mind for support, it was impossible for one’s body to evolve to Lv. 8 or even Lv. 9.
After evolution, the body will beco even more terrifying! With a powerful body cos a stronger brain. The power of the mind and consciousness released can even greatly distort reality and even influence Cosmic Force.?Xu Jingming nodded.
Cosmic Force was the key to becoming an Origin lifeform, and ntal strength was the key to leveraging Cosmic Force!
Many peak Lv. 8 experts in the universe were geniuses, and they were even the greatest evolvers in the history of many civilizations. However, their ntal strength was still far from being able to mobilize Cosmic Force.
It’s still too early. I’m only at Beam Transformation’s basic mastery, and I haven’t even reached Lv. 7.?Xu Jingming was calm. After all, he had only cultivated the evolutionary thod for slightly more than a year.
…
After leaving the virtual room, it was afternoon in reality.
He saw his daughter, Xu Lixing, sitting in a baby chair and eating a cream cone. Her mouth was covered in cream, and there were so on her bib.
“Papa,” his daughter imdiately shouted excitedly when she saw him walk down the stairs.
“Jingming, do you want an egg cone?” Li Miaomiao asked. “Shall I get you one too?”
“Give one.” Xu Jingming smiled and nodded.
He looked at his daughter—who was eating the cone—and Li Miaomiao, who was going to get one.
You guys are the source of my mind’s light, he thought.
…
Blood Rain World, Northern Region.
In Yan Nation.
As the King of Yan’s fief, Yan Nation was one of the few places in the north where there was stable order.
“Your Highness.” The King of Yan’s Estate in Yan Nation was a hundred tis larger than the one in the capital, and a large number of troops guarded it. At this mont, the King of Yan—who was sitting in the study—looked at the azure-robed scholar in front of him.
The azure-robed scholar respectfully handed over a thumb-sized scroll of information. “News from the capital.”
“Oh?” The King of Yan calmly received it and unfolded it. His pupils then constricted when he read it.
“My son…” The King of Yan’s body trembled slightly.
“It took two days to deliver the ssage by pigeon,” the scholar in azure whispered. “In other words, His Highness was assassinated two nights ago.”
The King of Yan muttered in a low voice, “I know he hates , but the various vassal states have to send their princes to stay in the capital. This is the rule! Back when Uncle was in power, I didn’t dare to disobey the empire’s orders and could only send him over.”
“He had a rough life since he was young and suffered outside. He had a tenacious personality and was cunning and cautious enough—that’s why I sent him to the capital! As the capital is too dangerous, he can live longer with his caution.”
“I originally wanted to secretly bring him back before the rebellion and my complete fallout with the emperor.” The King of Yan stood up and walked to the window. “He will only have what it takes to take over my position after tempering himself in his youth, in the capital, and through war.”
“The world is corrupted. If I don’t raise the army, the growing rebel army will eventually flatten Yan.”
“As for the rebels, it’s equally difficult. I need an heir who’s strong enough, one that’s even stronger than and can deal with all kinds of dangerous situations.” The King of Yan shook his head. “But he…”
“My condolences, Your Highness,” the azure-robed scholar said.
“Danger can hone one, but at the sa ti, he will be destroyed if he can’t withstand the training.” The King of Yan shook his head gently. “I was already prepared for this! Many people will die on the way to claiming this world.”
“Pass my ssage to the capital!” the King of Yan instructed. “Your Majesty, my son is dead. Your Majesty must give an explanation! Give the entire Yan Nation an explanation!”
The azure-robed scholar nodded. “Understood.”
“Also, submit a letter to His Majesty! We’ll say that the north is corrupt and that our Yan Nation has expended a lot of resources to resist the chaos in the north. We need His Majesty’s support for military expenditure,” the King of Yan said. “If we don’t receive any reinforcents, I’m afraid Yan Nation won’t be able to hold on.”
The azure-robed scholar nodded. “Yes, Your Highness.”
“It’s about ti for Yan to officially expand,” the King of Yan comnted after so thought. “All these years, we’ve been secretly infiltrating the surrounding areas of Yan, but our control is far from enough! Now that the chaos is getting stronger, we have to officially send troops everywhere and quickly strengthen ourselves.”
“According to the empire’s laws, we can’t send out an army without the empire’s permission,” the azure-robed scholar replied.
“We’ll defend ourselves when the news reaches the empire and they question us,” the King of Yan said. “Don’t worry; I know the emperor very well. He won’t easily fall out with . As long as we don’t openly rebel, we can stall for at least a year! A year later? Who knows what the situation will be like in this world.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” The azure-clothed scholar beca excited.
“Quickly draw up a complete expansion plan,” the King of Yan instructed. “As soon as possible!”
“Your Highness, we’ve been preparing for a long ti. The complete plan can be presented to you tomorrow,” the azure-robed scholar answered.
The King of Yan nodded slightly and turned around slightly.
“I’ll take my leave.” The azure-robed scholar imdiately left respectfully.
The King of Yan stood alone in his study in silence for a long ti. Suddenly, he looked down at the small paper scroll in his hand and whispered, “You couldn’t even survive in the capital, so how are you qualified to claim the rights for the world?”
