The universe was boundless, the starry void vast.
Su Yuan felt an unprecedented sense of comfort.
It was like a fish returning to the sea or a bird taking to the sky.
'My current strength...'
Su Yuan stood beneath the starry sky, his thoughts churning.
The explosive expansion of his control over the Power of Extre Yin and the Power of Extre Yang was rely one of the changes brought about by his breakthrough to the Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform realm.
Furthermore, the Six Dinsions of his life, such as his Physical Body and Soul, had also experienced an earth-shattering enhancent.
'A lifespan of five hundred thousand years...'
Su Yuan's mind stirred as he sensed the information regarding his lifespan.
The absolute limit of a normal Starry Sky Lifeform's lifespan was three hundred thousand years.
Even a Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform could only live for a maximum of three hundred thousand years.
Once those three hundred thousand years were up, if one had not beco a Stellar Life Form, they would face nothing but death by old age.
The physical body would gradually decay, and the soul would slowly wither away; this process was irreversible.
But Su Yuan, having just entered the Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform realm, already possessed a lifespan of five hundred thousand years. If he smoothly advanced to the Later-Stage, his Life Level would undergo another massive leap.
He would then have a lifespan of a million years.
Of course, the sheer length of his lifespan did not hold much significance for Su Yuan.
After all, with the Grey Mirror, even if he truly faced the great limit of his lifespan in the future, there would be countless ways to prolong it.
With the Grey Mirror's assistance, dying of old age was nothing but a joke.
'Physical Body, Soul, Will...'
Upon becoming a Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform, Su Yuan did not imdiately return to the Spaceship.
Instead, he stood quietly beneath the starry void, carefully sensing the changes within himself.
'Comprehension...'
A multitude of information continuously surfaced in Su Yuan's mind, such as the nurous Secret thods and even Sacred thods he had obtained from the Grey Mirror.
When he was still a Planetary Lifeform, facing these Secret thods and Sacred thods, even with the Grey Mirror clarifying his doubts, Su Yuan still occasionally found them obscure during his comprehension. He needed to constantly question the Grey Mirror to continue his insights.
But now?
'With the leap in my Life Level and the qualitative transformation of my Comprehension dinsion, everything is different.'
Su Yuan sighed internally.
Trying to comprehend the Secret thods that he previously found obscure and difficult to understand now felt significantly simpler. Even without the Grey Mirror providing the answers, he could figure out the vast majority of it with just a mont of thought.
Now, Su Yuan's Comprehension could rapidly help him understand sothing from different angles, allowing him to infer three or even ten things from a single fact!
'Combining the Power of Extre Yin and the Power of Extre Yang in this manner can unleash an even more formidable might.'
Su Yuan raised his right hand, where a wisp of Extre Yang and Extre Yin continuously intertwined and collided at his fingertips.
Fully comprehending Extre Yang and Extre Yin was not the end. How to combine and utilize these two types of Cosmic Power still depended on the individual.
Since Su Yuan practiced the Six Dinsions Cultivation thod, his Comprehension dinsion had also tamorphosed alongside the leap in his Life Level. With his exceedingly high Comprehension now, researching these matters posed no difficulty at all.
'There is also this Yin-Yang Blood Pool.'
Su Yuan shifted his gaze, looking at the five-ter-long blood-colored pool beside him.
Upon becoming a Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform, Su Yuan's sensation when viewing the Yin-Yang Blood Pool again was completely different from when he was a Level 9 Life Form.
Under Su Yuan's current gaze, the Yin-Yang Blood Pool was not just a Cosmic Wonder; it was an amalgam of two clusters of continuously weaving and colliding Yin and Yang powers.
'How truly wonderful.'
Su Yuan could not help but imrse himself as he watched.
Before this, no matter how the Grey Mirror described the Yin-Yang Blood Pool, it could not compare to Su Yuan seeing it with his own eyes after reaching a certain height in his Life Level.
Half an hour later.
Su Yuan snapped out of his imrsion.
'There is no rush to comprehend this Yin-Yang Blood Pool for now.'
With a thought, Su Yuan stored the Yin-Yang Blood Pool into his Spatial Ring.
Imdiately, deep within his sea of consciousness, he called out to the Grey Mirror, 'Latest body data!'
Swish! The grey mirror's surface rippled hazily, and characters began to erge.
[Life Level: Level 20 (0%)]
[Cultivation thod: Six Dinsions Cultivation thod]
[Sacred thod: Mind Brand]
[Spear Art: "Thirty-Six Forms of Extre Yang" Perfected]
[Spear Art: "Thirty-Six Forms of Extre Yin" Perfected]
[Power of Extre Yang: 100%]
[Power of Extre Yin: 100%]
[Power of Ultimate Yang: 1%]
[Power of Ultimate Yin: 0%]
[Combat Bonus: 18230%]
Staring at his latest body data, Su Yuan was in a good mood.
Through this breakthrough, his Life Level had reached Level 20 in one fell swoop.
A Level 10 to Level 19 Life Form was considered an Initial-Realm Starry Sky Lifeform.
A Level 20 to Level 29 Life Form was considered a Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
'A Combat Bonus of one hundred and eighty-two tis...'
Su Yuan's spirit was slightly uplifted.
In the Broken Void World, the Top Three Ranks, which corresponded to a Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform, typically started with a Combat Bonus of rely sixty tis.
A Combat Bonus of one hundred and eighty-two tis?
It must be known that the practical combat ability of an individual life form was not calculated through simple addition.
A Combat Bonus of one hundred and eighty-two tis was nurically equal to three Top Three Ranks experts with sixty tis Combat Bonuses combined.
But in an actual life-and-death battle, the forr could easily tear right through the latter.
In truth, a Combat Bonus of seventy or eighty tis was already enough to defeat three sixty-tis Combat Bonuses working together.
The higher the Combat Bonus climbed, the harder it was to improve, and similarly, the greater the boost it provided to one's strength.
'There are many reasons why I can achieve a Combat Bonus of one hundred and eighty-two tis. For instance, because I practice the Six Dinsions Cultivation thod, even though I have only just entered the Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform level, my ntal Will strength rivals that of a normal peak Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform...'
Su Yuan's thoughts surged. 'Another reason is that the Cosmic Power I command consists of two types, and they are two forces that mutually generate and overco each other. The Power of Extre Yang excels at offense, while the Power of Extre Yin excels at defense. Working in tandem like this naturally provides a very high boost to my Combat Bonus...'
Su Yuan's gaze landed on the [Power of Ultimate Yang] column.
'The most important reason, however, is that I have comprehended a sliver of the Power of Ultimate Yang!'
A ntal Will rivaling a Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform? Comprehending multiple types of Cosmic Power that could coordinate with one another?
These were all secondary reasons. Many peak First-Rank Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeforms could also achieve this, such as the Pavilion Master of the Azure Wave Pavilion.
Yet, their Combat Bonuses only barely exceeded one hundred tis.
One hundred and eighty-two tis?
This was a Combat Bonus that the Pavilion Master of the Azure Wave Pavilion wouldn't even dare to dream of.
'Power of Ultimate Yang...'
Su Yuan's gaze turned profound. The Power of Ultimate Yang was a Cosmic Power that stood above Extre Yang. In fact, the word "power" could hardly even describe it anymore.
The Power of Ultimate Yang was more akin to rules and Order. It did not rely exist on a physical level, but could cover the ntal plane and even higher dinsions.
To co into contact with this kind of power, one had to at least be a Stellar Life Form.
Since his ti as a Planetary Lifeform, Su Yuan had followed the steps provided by the Grey Mirror, comprehending the Power of Extre Yang from scratch.
It wasn't until his final, successful leap into the Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform realm that he managed to comprehend a sliver of the Power of Ultimate Yang.
If he had made even the slightest mistake in anything he did during that process, he would have been completely unable to comprehend this sliver of the Power of Ultimate Yang. And it was precisely because of this sliver of the Power of Ultimate Yang that Su Yuan's Combat Bonus skyrocketed to one hundred and eighty-two tis.
'Power of Ultimate Yang...'
Su Yuan's thoughts turned. His attempts to comprehend the Power of Ultimate Yang and the Power of Ultimate Yin were not only to cultivate the Sacred Art "Yin-Yang Robe", but also to prepare for his breakthrough to beco a Stellar Life Form.
This was also the cultivation plan formulated by the Grey Mirror.
'It is ti to go back.'
Su Yuan took a step forward, returning to the Spaceship.
"Congratulations, Master, for breaking through to the Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform realm."
AI Xiaolan's voice rang out imdiately. As an artificial intelligence capable of perfectly simulating living emotions, Xiaolan naturally knew exactly what to say at a mont like this.
Hearing this, Su Yuan smiled faintly and then ordered, "Proceed with faster-than-light travel in this direction, and stop after half a day."
"Does Master not intend to return to Bluestar?"
AI Xiaolan asked.
"There is no rush for now."
Su Yuan said.
The location he was heading toward concealed a legacy left behind by a Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
This was also the exact reason Su Yuan had specifically chosen to breakthrough here. After finishing his breakthrough, he could conveniently collect the legacy left by that Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
According to the answer provided by the Grey Mirror, that Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform had chosen to breakthrough alone in order to advance a step further and reach the Stellar Life Form level.
The result was obvious: the breakthrough failed, and they perished, their path vanishing.
Hum... Half a day later, the black Spaceship erged from the Dark Universe into an equally barren expanse of the starry void.
"Right there!"
Su Yuan looked toward a teorite in the distance with a diater of roughly over a hundred kiloters.
This teorite looked entirely ordinary, yet concealed within it was the Spatial Ring of that Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
In fact, this teorite was originally part of a planet.
When that Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform failed their breakthrough, the various Cosmic Powers they had comprehended fell out of control and collided with each other, causing a massive explosion that completely shattered the planet into countless fragnts.
The teorite before him was one of those fragnts, which happened to carry that Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform's Spatial Ring as it drifted along until now.
Aside from Su Yuan, no one knew that this teorite concealed the legacy of a Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
Su Yuan stepped forward and extracted a silver Spatial Ring from deep within the teorite.
During this process, no unexpected accidents occurred, such as coincidentally being discovered by a passing expert, or so kind of guardian lingering near the Spatial Ring.
If there had been even the slightest difficulty in retrieving this Spatial Ring, Su Yuan would not have co.
The nurous resources stored within the Spatial Ring had a total value of roughly over ten billion Azure Surge Coins.
If that Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform hadn't spent their entire fortune purchasing breakthrough resources, the resources inside the Spatial Ring would have been significantly larger.
'Valued at twelve point three billion Azure Surge Coins...'
Su Yuan probed his mind into the Spatial Ring, a smile appearing on his face.
It should be known that he was currently in a stage of extre poverty. To prepare for this breakthrough, he had exhausted the wealth he had accumulated in the Broken Void World, along with earnings from other endeavors... such as offering advice to others and the one billion Azure Surge Coins in returns from investing in the 'Voyager' Exploration Team.
He had poured absolutely everything into it.
Breaking through directly from a Level 9 Life Form to a Level 20 Life Form had only helped Su Yuan save the ti required for cultivation accumulation.
As for the consumption of resources? That hadn't been reduced by even a single bit.
Consequently, after his breakthrough, the balance in Su Yuan's account was left with rely a few hundred million Azure Surge Coins.
Now that he had once again acquired over ten billion Azure Surge Coins, his mood was naturally delighted.
'What a pity. Opportunities like this—easy to obtain, carrying no hidden dangers, requiring little ti, and not interfering with my normal cultivation—are not very common. This is the only one within several thousand light-years...'
Su Yuan thought to himself.
Through the Grey Mirror, he could learn of all serendipitous encounters, and this legacy from a certain Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform was rely one of them.
As for other opportunities? Su Yuan was aware of a legacy left by a Stellar Life Form so one thousand two hundred light-years away. However, that Stellar Life Form had not yet died; if he were to take the opportunity left behind by them, the other party would inevitably sense it.
This would attract the attention of even higher echelons.
Therefore, Su Yuan had given up on it. Besides, crossing a distance of over a thousand light-years would require flying for several months, even relying on faster-than-light travel.
"Ti to head back to Bluestar."
Su Yuan returned to the Spaceship.
At the sa ti, he issued a command to AI Xiaolan.
Hum... The Spaceship set sail once more, accelerating into faster-than-light flight toward Bluestar.
A day and a half later.
The Spaceship approached Bluestar.
Returning to Bluestar, Su Yuan's mindset was completely different.
Before he left, he was nothing more than a Level 9 Planetary Lifeform. Even after fully comprehending the powers of Extre Yang and Extre Yin, he was at most comparable to an Initial-Realm Starry Sky Lifeform.
And now?
He was a Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform who had practiced the Six Dinsions Cultivation thod, plus he had comprehended a sliver of the Power of Ultimate Yang.
It could be said that across the entirety of Bluestar, there was no longer any life form that was his match. Perhaps in the future, the Azure Surge Universal Human Empire might dispatch a Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform to oversee things.
But at least for now, Su Yuan was once again truly invincible on Bluestar.
Half an hour later.
Su Yuan returned to the warship on the North Pole continent.
'The Mid-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform realm is rely the beginning for . My goal is to beco a Stellar Life Form, to beco a Cosmic Saint!'
Su Yuan reined in his thoughts, contemplating his upcoming cultivation plan.
'Right, the Hotown Exploration Team returned today. It is ti to go collect my returns.'
Su Yuan suddenly thought to himself.
Several months ago, Su Yuan had funded the Hotown Exploration Team with four hundred million Azure Surge Coins.
In exchange, he was to receive a twenty percent share of the returns upon their arrival back.
And according to the answer provided by the Grey Mirror, the Hotown Exploration Team would bring back twenty billion worth of resources from this exploration.
Twenty percent of twenty billion worth of resources was exactly four billion Azure Surge Coins.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Su Yuan had just acquired an inheritance worth over ten billion Azure Surge Coins left by a certain Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
Four billion Azure Surge Coins was no small sum for any Mid-Stage or even Later-Stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
Whoosh!
Su Yuan imdiately entered the Virtual World Network.
Within the Virtual World Network, in the 'Explorers' world.
Su Yuan's figure materialized in the Tavern once more, and he then headed directly toward the location of the Hotown Exploration Team.
Shortly after.
Su Yuan arrived near the Hotown Exploration Team.
Similar to the 'Voyager' Exploration Team from before, the Hotown Exploration Team, having brought back twenty billion Azure Surge Coins worth of resources this ti, instantly beca a hot commodity.
One investor after another ca calling, negotiating funding for their next exploration.
Su Yuan waited for a while. Only after those investors had mostly left did he step forward.
"Mr. Mirror?"
When the captain of the Hotown Exploration Team, Hu Ta, saw Su Yuan, his spirits jolted, and he imdiately strode forward.
"During this exploration, our team has harvested a total of twenty billion Azure Surge Coins worth of resources. We owe it all to your initial funding, Mr. Mirror."
Hu Ta, the captain of the Hotown Exploration Team, spoke in a mild tone, placing himself in an extrely humble posture.
This left the vice-captain beside him slightly stunned. The captain had t with nurous investors today, but he had not treated a single one of them with such earnestness, or rather, absolute respect as he did now.
