"I wonder how Earth is doing? It should be alright, all those devices are still operating perfectly, and the amount of Spirit Crystals obtained every day hasn't declined…"
Aboard the battleship, Lin Yun looked towards the direction of Earth and murmured softly.
"I wonder if Granny has entered the Immortal World or the Heavenly Realm, and how she's doing now?"
Lin Yun fell silent.
Ultimately, it was still a matter of strength. If he had enough strength, how could he have been forced to leave so awkwardly?
Initially, he lacked strength, was frad by others, and all his years of hard work were gone overnight.
Later, he lacked strength, had to leave his ho country, and returned heavily wounded, nearly perishing.
Now, he lacked strength, the order he established was easily destroyed by others, and he had to take his people and leave Earth...
At this mont, Lin Yun's heart suddenly surged with a desperate thirst for strength.
Then... let's keep cultivating!
Lin Yun closed his eyes, his aura retracted, and a powerful inner strength began to rotate rapidly within his body.
Half a year later.
"Golden Core Realm, where Yin and Yang reach their extres, and the realm of seeds is born... Domain Realm, where the Golden Core Realm reaches its extres, the emitted might undergoes transformation, forming a domain… Is it similar to a seed sprouting? Then, the developnt of this realm is like the growth of branches and leaves. When it reaches its limit and bears fruit, it is another seed?
As the saying goes, Dao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things... Is this what the Dazzling Star Realm is all about?" Lin Yun mumbled thoughtfully.
"Rumble—"
After an unknown amount of ti, the domain within Lin Yun's dantian started to change. A tiny flicker of golden light was born at its edge, quickly absorbing all the Domain Power around it. This tiny glimr of light also grew in this process, flickering brightly like a shimring star when compared with the huge Golden Core.
"The seventh stage of martial arts, the Dazzling Star Realm, has been achieved..."
Lin Yun faintly smiled, murmuring softly.
"Whoosh——whoosh——whoosh——"
Without opening his eyes, as his martial arts broke through, an extraordinary phenonon descended from the heavens. The enormous power of heaven and earth converged, and Lin Yun began to absorb it with all his might.
The birth of a single tiny golden light marked the beginning of the Dazzling Star Realm.
Having three golden lights indicated that the early stage of the Dazzling Star Realm had reached its peak.
Having six golden lights indicated that the middle stage of the Dazzling Star Realm had reached its peak.
Having nine golden lights indicated that the late stage of the Dazzling Star Realm had reached its peak.
Having twelve golden lights indicated that the peak of the Dazzling Star Realm had reached its peak.
Now, he had only just taken his first step into the Dazzling Star Realm. There was still a long way to go!
"The Dazzling Star Realm, Lin Yun has broken into the Dazzling Star Realm..."
From afar, Star Blue watched this scene with deep envy.
Although he had already broken through into the Dazzling Star Realm, he did so relying on the Cosmic Trading System.
He knew that Lin Yun had achieved it through his own cultivation.
There was a big difference between the two.
Lin Yun's martial arts foundation was very solid. When he first entered the Golden Core Realm, he could already compete with him, Star Blue, who was in the late stage of the Domain Realm. When Lin Yun reached the late stage of the Domain Realm, he could already sweep across the peak warriors of the Dazzling Star Realm.
Now, Lin Yun had broken into the Dazzling Star Realm. How powerful would he be?
"I'm afraid he can now contend with warriors at the late stage of the Stellar Nebula Realm," Star Blue remarked thoughtfully.
The late stage of the Stellar Nebula Realm was the late stages of the eighth rank cultivators and Lin Yun's challenge to cultivators above his level was formidable.
Now, he, Star Blue, was only in the late stage of the Dazzling Star Realm and was far from being a match for Lin Yun.
"Given the current pace, in another year or two at most, Lin Yun might be able to contend with ninth rank cultivators. Perhaps, he'll even surpass the average ninth rank cultivator?" As he thought of this, Star Blue suddenly rembered the current crisis plaguing the Bamboo Planet.
Over the past five hundred years, that Bamboo Planet powerhouse might have already reached the low ranks of the ninth rank.
But it would only take a few more years.
Lin Yun's cultivation speed was too fast. With his current rate of cultivation, it was indeed possible for him to sweep across regular ninth rank peak warriors in a few years' ti.
A few years... compared to their current realms, compared to their long lifespans, that really wasn't long at all.
"Rumble—"
Just at that mont, on Lin Yun and his team's battleship, another strong breakthrough aura appeared.
"Another one breaking through the Domain Realm into the Dazzling Star Realm? It seems to be a woman's aura?"
Star Blue exclaid in surprise.
"Huh? Did ngng break through too?"
Lin Yun felt a slight movent in his heart and silently thought.
From that strong breakthrough aura, he could sense Lin ngng's aura.
Speaking of which, Lin ngng's early martial talent didn't seem to be less than his own, it might even have been much better.
Of course, this was only the early manifestation, which was dependent on a variety of factors.
For example, he was from an ordinary civilian household. Although he began practicing martial arts at a young age, he couldn't match Lin ngng, who ca from a marital arts family, and was imrsed in it from a young age. She found martial arts very easy to pick up right from the start.
Later, after Lin Yun beca Yan Dashan's disciple, Yan Dashan was only an ordinary martial artist. His martial arts level was only at the Late Mingjin Stage. Initially, what Lin Yun learned was basic routine. Yan Dashan did not pass on the profound cultivation techniques of the Seven Injuries Sect to Lin Yun due to sect rules.
Lin ngng, on the other hand, possessed the centuries-old martial arts experience and teachings of the Golden Sword Sect, coupled with close instruction from Dark Strength Master Lin Yuanshan.
Later on, after Lin Yun turned eighteen, he didn't practice martial arts as much, while Lin ngng continued her training, occasionally using dicinal wines and treasures born of heaven and earth.
Considering all of these factors, Lin Yun's martial arts talent was actually quite good, slightly superior to ngng's.
This beca especially apparent once Lin Yun started training with the Cosmic Trading System.
Given the sa study resources, Lin ngng's progress was slower than his.
However, one's martial arts talent is hard to define. So could be slow to progress early on but accelerate in later stages—late bloors. Others showed rapid initial progress but slowed later on, not due to a lack of perseverance the talent inherent in these cases can't be imdiately discerned.
Lin Yun chose the most challenging path of martial arts, learning a broad range of skills and knowledge.
Initially, he thought the difficulty of this path was simply due to the sheer amount of effort required. It was only later that Lin Yun realized that wasn't the case.
A person's ntal strength is limited. Indeed, with the aid of the Cosmic Trading System, provided he had enough Spirit Crystals, he could quickly elevate a martial art to an extrely high realm.
However, there were certain aspects of training that the Cosmic Trading System could not assist him with.
If he studied too many things, it could affect his ntal strength.
This wouldn't be evident in the early stages.
Only when training reached its final stage would it beco apparent.
So martial arts realms might be easy to break through, while others could be difficult, testing one's luck and ntal strength.
Though once a breakthrough was achieved, one was guaranteed to have a strength surpassing that of other martial artists of the sa level. This was certain.
Lin Yun didn't initially understand this.
By the ti he did, it was too late.
He had learned a large amount of martial techniques, most of which he had brought to a high level. It was too late for him to halt this path—there was no choice but to see it through to the end.
Fortunately, due to limited resources at the ti, he hadn't let Xia Qingqing, Lin ngng, and others learn too many martial techniques.
Learning many martial techniques has its advantages, but one shouldn't learn too many.
For this reason, even when Lin Yun later gained vast resources, he didn't allow them to learn too many martial techniques.
He decided to walk this challenging path alone and spare the others the risk.
Compared to Lin Yun's broad and comprehensive approach, Lin ngng and the others probably belonged to a more streamlined style.
Lin ngng had used the Cosmic Trading System for several months less than Lin Yun.
Now, it seed, Lin ngng had caught up.
Among those who started training during the sa period, including so of Lin Yun's carefully nurtured subordinates, most were still in the Golden Core Realm. Only a few had reached the Domain Realm. From this, it could be deduced that ngng's martial arts talent was quite high.
Of course, ngng's achievent was limited to the Martial Arts Realm alone.
Lin Yun had chosen the path of extensive learning, so ngng's actual strength most likely fell short of his.
However, once ngng's Martial Arts Realm started to catch up to Lin Yun's, it signaled a significant shift.
In the future, ngng's Martial Arts Realm might even exceed Lin Yun's, surpassing him considerably, especially if Lin Yun was stuck at a particular realm. The possibility was high.
Then, it would be unclear who had the upper hand, Lin ngng or Lin Yun.
"I can't believe I let a little girl catch up with , quite embarrassing," Lin Yun said with a faint smile, gently taunting himself.
However, he had no real resentnt over ngng catching up to him. On the contrary, he was pleased.
Strength lies in numbers. He was more worried that the people around him couldn't keep up with his pace and would lag far behind.
For every person whose strength was close to his, his pressure would decrease a bit.
He knew very clearly that relying on powerful robots was only a short-term solution.
In the end, he would have to depend on himself and the people around him.
One day later.
Lin Yun and ngng's realms stabilized.
"Lin Yun, I've finally caught up to your Martial Arts Realm. Let's spar and see how much I still lag behind you." The next day, ngng ca to Lin Yun's room and said, looking at Lin Yun excitly.
With her bright, expressive eyes, her radiant smile, and her vibrant spirit, she exuded an allure beyond that of average girls. Now, reaching a high martial arts realm made her even more radiant than before, she was beautiful and impressive like a fairy descended from the heavens.
Zhao Gang, Xia Xiaotian, Xia Qingqing, Lin Jianfei, Lin Duoer, and others followed behind laughing and watching this scene unfold.
They were also pleased when ngng caught up to Lin Yun's Martial Arts Realm. They wanted to see how much difference there was between ngng and Lin Yun's strength. They all understood the path Lin Yun had chosen.
At the sa level, Lin Yun's strength far surpassed any ordinary martial artist of the sa rank. However, they too had learned quite a few martial techniques. They wanted to see the gap between them and Lin Yun at the sa realm.
Once ngng and Lin Yun's results ca in, they would have an idea.
"Alright."
Lin Yun smiled faintly, accepting her challenge.
He had just broken through to a new realm, so he was eager for so action. Moreover, he was curious to see what level of strength ngng, who had broken through to the Dazzling Star Realm, had attained.
