Over the past five years, Su Yuan had walked through all corners of the world, barely making a single move.
Therefore, the God List drawn up by the Heavenly Secret Pavilion still retained an understanding of his strength from five years ago.
In terms of true combat prowess, Su Yuan was far more than just a few tis stronger than he had been half a decade prior.
His comprehension of the two supre laws—the Power of Ultimate Yang and the Power of Ultimate Yin—were both approaching twenty percent. Many Stellar Life Forms could not even achieve such a feat.
Not to ntion, after devouring the essence of the Great Cycle of Universal Power mastered by eight Peak Tier 9 Experts and hundreds of other Tier 8 and Tier 9 powerhouses, his own Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elents had reached an even higher state of perfection.
"With my current strength, is there any Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform in the Divine Body World that could still be my match?"
Su Yuan asked the gray mirror deep within his sea of consciousness.
The surface of the gray mirror churned with a hazy mist before providing an answer.
[None.]
Su Yuan understood.
Five years ago, his strength was already close to that of Ten Thousand Stars Primordial and Giant Spirit Mo Shan.
Given his monstrous growth rate, it was completely natural that he could now crush them with ease.
Yet, Ten Thousand Stars Primordial and Giant Spirit Mo Shan were the undisputed strongest experts of this era in the Divine Body World.
Of course, that was no longer the case.
"The Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elents in my body?"
Su Yuan split his focus, montarily sensing the seven Cosmic Forces of Yin-Yang and the Five Elents endlessly circulating within his divine body.
These seven Cosmic Forces continuously rged and clashed, surprisingly giving rise to the profound essence of myriad laws and paths.
'It is not enough.'
Su Yuan thought to himself. This was the reason he remained in the Divine Body World instead of breaking through to beco a Stellar Life Form.
There was still room for the Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elents he had mastered to advance further. That was the true perfection he sought.
'Currently, in the Divine Body World, the only Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeforms that can benefit my Yin-Yang and Five Elents cycle are the Peak Tier 9 Experts,' Su Yuan mused inwardly.
Peak Tier 9 Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeforms possessed a flawless and thoroughly understood Great Cycle of Universal Power, allowing them to open up an internal world without any issues.
The only reason these Peak Tier 9 Experts had an eighty to ninety percent chance of advancing to a Stellar Life Form—aning a ten to twenty percent chance of failure—was entirely due to other factors.
For example, their physical bodies might not et the standard to withstand the creation of an internal world, or there might be flaws in their ntal Will.
The Great Cycle of Universal Power itself posed no problems.
And only this kind of stable Great Cycle of Universal Power, capable of opening an internal world, could push Su Yuan's Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elents a step further.
'Currently, excluding the eight from five years ago, there are a total of six hundred and thirty-seven Peak Tier 9 Experts in the Divine Body World...' Su Yuan considered.
This was the precise data provided by the gray mirror. It was absolutely correct, without the slightest margin of error.
However, killing these six hundred and thirty-seven Peak Tier 9 Experts to devour the essence of their Great Cycles of Universal Power could not be achieved through direct combat alone.
If he simply went around hunting them down, he could eliminate a few dozen at most before alerting the other six hundred-plus Tier 9 powerhouses.
This was exactly why Su Yuan had rarely made a move over the past five years. He was worried about exposing his strength and startling the snake in the grass.
'Out of the six hundred and thirty-seven Peak Tier 9 Experts, more than four hundred will not enter the Divine Body World within the next few decades...'
Su Yuan pondered.
Ultimately, the Divine Body World was rely an evolutionary world suited for Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeforms.
Since Peak Tier 9 Experts were securely on the path to breaking through to Stellar Life Forms, unless absolutely necessary, their top priority should be preparing for that very breakthrough.
Logging into the ga? That was secondary.
For example, Ten Thousand Stars Primordial, who currently ranked first on the God List, had not appeared in twenty years. All his energy was focused on breaking through to beco a Stellar Life Form.
Ten Thousand Stars Primordial's goal was to carve out an internal world spanning four hundred and fifty thousand to five hundred thousand kiloters.
This was also the demand placed upon Ten Thousand Stars Primordial by the Empire Ruler of the Primordial Universe Human Empire.
In truth, the Information Matrix of the Virtual Network had the sa expectation for Su Yuan: to create an initial internal world spanning five hundred thousand kiloters.
If the initial internal world reached a span of five hundred thousand kiloters, the probability of becoming a cosmic Saint in the future would soar to a staggering sixty percent.
And cosmic Saints were the true pillars of the various Peak Races. Nurturing a Great Sage was enough to dictate the outco of a localized war.
'The simplest way to lure those two hundred-plus Peak Tier 9 Experts back into the Divine Body World is the Undying Divine Elixir.'
Su Yuan's thoughts raced.
The Undying Divine Elixir was the greatest fortuitous encounter in the Divine Body World. In essence, it acted as the vessel for a minor world. The Great Cycle of Universal Power contained within it naturally ford an independent realm.
To so extent, an Undying Divine Elixir was equivalent to half a Stellar Life Form. If a Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform obtained one and successfully refined it, the assistance it provided in opening their internal world would be unprecedented.
If World Tree Seeds could assist in the creation of an internal world on a physical level...
Then the Undying Divine Elixir would aid in its creation on a level of conceptual comprehension.
With one working externally and the other internally, they were hailed as the ultimate auxiliary items for a Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform breaking through to a Stellar Life Form.
Most importantly, unlike the World Tree Seeds, the insights gained from the Undying Divine Elixir could be stacked.
This ant that even after refining one Undying Divine Elixir, a cultivator could continue to refine a second or third one.
Of course, this was only in theory.
In reality, it was virtually impossible for a Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform to refine a second Undying Divine Elixir.
Due to the underlying chanics of the Divine Body World, the interval between the birth of each Undying Divine Elixir was never less than two hundred thousand years.
anwhile, the maximum Lifespan of a Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform was only three hundred thousand years.
The Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeforms qualified to fight over the Undying Divine Elixir were basically the monstrous freaks ranked in the top ten of the God List. It was practically impossible for them to stall at the late stage for a hundred or two hundred thousand years just to wait for the next elixir to be born.
'The previous Undying Divine Elixir appeared several centuries ago and ultimately fell into the hands of Ten Thousand Stars Primordial.'
Su Yuan recalled that it was exactly that battle for the Undying Divine Elixir which had cented Ten Thousand Stars Primordial's absolute position as number one on the God List.
At that ti, the dozens of Peak Tier 9 Experts swept aside by Ten Thousand Stars Primordial included Giant Spirit Mo Shan and everyone ranked from second to tenth on the God List.
'Undying Divine Elixir...'
A strange look surfaced in Su Yuan's eyes. Normally, the next Undying Divine Elixir would not appear for another one to two hundred thousand years.
But that was only under normal circumstances.
Through the gray mirror, Su Yuan understood the fundantal principles behind the birth of the Undying Divine Elixir. He possessed the corresponding thods to forcibly accelerate the manifestation of the next one.
Bluestar was infinitely more prosperous than it had been five years ago.
With the continuous influx of imperial resources, nurous space routes had been opened. Coupled with the promotions by the empire's tourism departnt and Bluestar's internal developnt...
Bluestar rapidly beca the economic hub of the Milky Way. A massive influx of cosmic tourists flowed in and out daily, including true Alien Races. It was not uncommon to see genuine aliens within the Territory of the human race.
These Alien Races were either on friendly terms with humanity, having obtained permits to enter human space, or they had thoroughly submitted to the human race.
The Universe was vast. Big fish ate small fish, and small fish ate shrimp. The human race was one of the biggest fish of all, having swallowed an untold number of lesser species.
Under the sweeping conquests of humanity, many Alien Races had no choice but to bow their heads and pledge allegiance.
On the North Pole Continent, Su Yuan sat cross-legged, looking down at the entirety of Bluestar. For the past five years, he had barely interfered with the planet's developnt.
With the plans laid out by the Imperial Managent Departnt, there were virtually no major issues. Su Yuan had only intervened a few tis at critical junctures to ensure Bluestar remained firmly under his control.
'Currently, the number of Imperial Citizens on Bluestar exceeds five hundred thousand, and over ten Starry Sky Lifeforms have successively erged.'
Su Yuan knew the details of Bluestar like the back of his hand.
The number of Imperial Citizens referred to Level 1 Life Forms. The human race's definition of recognized life started at the Level 1 Life Form. Those who fell below this threshold did not even qualify to be acknowledged as living beings by the empire.
As deep cooperation with various cosmic factions continued, the Native Residents of Bluestar had also gradually reaped trendous benefits. The existence of five hundred thousand Level 1 Life Forms was proof of this.
In the past, how many Level 1 Life Forms could be found on the entire planet?
Not to ntion the birth of over a dozen Starry Sky Lifeforms.
These dozen or so Starry Sky Lifeforms were all subordinates personally cultivated by Su Yuan.
Using the gray mirror, the subordinates Su Yuan selected possessed not only absolute loyalty but also aptitudes that placed them at the very pinnacle of Bluestar's population.
With the empire's resources and the guidance of public leaders like Director Zhou, the cultivation speed of these subordinates was naturally impressive.
However, Su Yuan knew very well that under normal developnt, these dozen Starry Sky Lifeforms would ultimately cap out at their current stage, possessing zero hope of ever becoming Stellar Life Forms.
They might not even produce a single Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
'The current Bluestar is only the beginning.'
Su Yuan's gaze was tranquil. Under his covert orchestration, the future of Bluestar would experience smooth sailing, eventually giving rise to nurous high-tier life forms.
After observing every detail of Bluestar, Su Yuan prepared to resu his cultivation.
"Ultimate Yang Source Stone!"
Su Yuan took out a jade box, slowly opened it, and gazed at the stone inside, which looked like it was wreathed in roaring flas.
Even though he had observed it many tis, Su Yuan still could not help but feel a sense of shock. The stone appeared to be only the size of a fist, yet it carried an oppressive weight as if it could crush entire galaxies.
Looking at this Ultimate Yang Source Stone was like gazing upon the vast Law of Ultimate Yang itself.
"The Power of Ultimate Yang is omnipresent, encompassing all dinsions. It is truly magnificent." Su Yuan muttered, deeply srized as he stared at the Ultimate Yang Source Stone.
'As long as I can completely comprehend the Power of Ultimate Yang and fuse my soul into it, I can achieve a state where the Ultimate Yang is , and I am the Ultimate Yang. This is exactly why cosmic Saints are nearly impossible to kill,'
Su Yuan pondered quietly.
A cosmic Saint fully comprehended at least one supre law and could entrust a portion of their soul to it. Their life-preservation capabilities would skyrocket compared to when they were re Stellar Life Forms.
A few years ago, Strategist rlin from the advisory group of the Canglan Cosmic Human Empire used Source Sand Star as bait specifically to kill a Saint of the Source Spirit Clan.
Unfortunately, even though the Canglan Cosmic Human Empire prepared nurous backup plans and deployed Saints with powers specifically countering their target for the ambush, they still failed. The Saint of the Source Spirit Clan managed to escape.
From this alone, one could see just how difficult it was to slay a cosmic Saint.
With their soul anchored to a supre law, killing a cosmic Saint required combating the supre law itself.
Two hours later.
Su Yuan put away the Ultimate Yang Source Stone and ceased his ditative observation.
The Ultimate Yang Source Stone contained boundless Power of Ultimate Yang. It could not be studied for too long; otherwise, there was a risk of being assimilated by it.
'At my current pace of comprehension, this Ultimate Yang Source Stone will disintegrate and return to the Universe in a hundred years at most.'
Su Yuan sighed inwardly.
The reason the Ultimate Yang Source Stone was so incomparably precious was that it was a consumable item.
While comprehending the Ultimate Yang Source Stone, one had to actively remove any barriers and expose it to the Universe. Only then could it resonate with the Law of Ultimate Yang itself, granting the viewer the sensation of observing the law directly through the stone.
However, during this resonance with the Law of Ultimate Yang, the stone was slowly being consud.
'A hundred years is enough.'
Su Yuan nodded slightly. According to the cultivation plan drafted for him by the gray mirror, a century was more than enough ti for him to step into the realm of a cosmic Saint.
'Ye Kunlun should be coming to find soon.'
With a flicker of thought, Su Yuan imdiately connected to the Virtual Network and entered his Personal Space.
A short while later.
Ye Kunlun's figure materialized not far away.
More than five years ago, Ye Kunlun had headed to the Ancestral Land of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan to undergo their trials. He had fully integrated into the Heavenly Phoenix Clan as a live-in son-in-law, which was the only way he could be with Feng Lingzhu.
The Heavenly Phoenix Clan was extrely xenophobic and never intermarried with outsiders. If Ye Kunlun wanted to be with Feng Lingzhu, his only option was to join the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.
After entering the Ancestral Land and passing the first stage of the trials, Ye Kunlun gained a asure of freedom, allowing him to log in and out of the human race's Virtual Network.
The human race's Virtual Network was not strictly limited to humans. Alien Races on good terms with humanity were equally permitted access.
The Heavenly Phoenix Clan maintained decent relations with the human race. This was exactly how Feng Lingzhu had been able to enter the Virtual Network and log into the "Infinite Bloodlines" world.
Of course, no one knew Feng Lingzhu's true identity. While the Heavenly Phoenix Clan had a small population, that was only relative to the staggering numbers of the human race.
"Lord."
Upon seeing Su Yuan, Ye Kunlun imdiately offered a deeply respectful bow.
The more he learned, the deeper and heavier his reverence for Su Yuan beca.
Before heading to the Ancestral Land of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, Ye Kunlun had rely thought of Su Yuan as a powerful Starry Sky Lifeform—perhaps a Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform, or at the very most, a Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform.
But now?
Passing the first stage of the trial in the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's Ancestral Land had granted Ye Kunlun a massive boost. Whether it was his foresight or other attributes, everything had been drastically expanded.
Under such circumstances, when Ye Kunlun looked at Su Yuan again, he naturally perceived much more.
In Ye Kunlun's eyes, even though Su Yuan was just sitting there quietly without any apparent abnormalities, his subtle, natural influence and absolute control over the surrounding space exuded a suffocating pressure that left Ye Kunlun struggling to breathe.
In the Ancestral Land of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, Ye Kunlun had interacted with peerless, monstrous geniuses who had reached the absolute zenith of the Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform realm.
Yet, compared to the Lord seated before him, those monstrous geniuses were absolute trash!
