At an altitude of 13,000 ters above the ground, Su Yuan sat suspended in midair.
After half a year of cultivation, Su Yuan's Life Level had reached the peak of a Level 4 Lifeform.
Breaking through to beco a Level 5 Lifeform was only a matter of ti now.
'Blue Star...'
Su Yuan looked down. Even though he was still within the planet's atmosphere, the view from this imnse height was undeniably spectacular.
'Compared to the vast universe, Blue Star is still far too insignificant.'
Su Yuan looked up at the Starry Void, silently thinking to himself.
The higher his cultivation advanced and the more his Life Level elevated, the more acutely he realized his own insignificance.
Even if one could reign supre on a single planet, fearing nothing above or below, they remained as small as dust on the boundless scale of the Universe.
'At least, with the help of the Omniscient Mirror, I have infinite possibilities.'
Su Yuan did not feel disheartened. Any Planetary Lifeform would inevitably feel a sense of powerlessness the first ti they clearly beheld the vast Universe.
"Master, Satellite No. 3423447848 is about to observe this location. Should I block it?"
Right at that mont, the voice of AI Xiaolan suddenly chid in.
By now, Xiaolan had completely taken over Blue Star's network. Wherever there was network coverage, Xiaolan had eyes.
"Block it,"
Su Yuan instructed in a calm tone.
Although he was now the undisputed ruler of Blue Star, with all the nations of the world under his absolute control,
there was no need to terrify a few satellite observers.
'Ti to continue practicing my spear.'
Gathering his thoughts, Su Yuan stood upright at the altitude of 13,000 ters, grasped his long spear, and began practicing his techniques.
Alternating between the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yin" and the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yang," the essence of both spear techniques flowed effortlessly from Su Yuan's hands.
Practicing his spear high in the sky was a thod Su Yuan had learned through the gray mirror to more clearly perceive the power of Ultimate Yang and the power of Ultimate Yin.
At this high altitude, with nothing to leverage and in close proximity to the cosmos, practicing his spear allowed him to experience these ultimate forces much more profoundly.
'Ultimate Yin? Ultimate Yang?'
When practicing the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yin," Su Yuan sensed a profound, bone-chillingly deep power of Ultimate Yin.
When executing the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yang," he felt the vast, unyielding, and masculine power of Ultimate Yang.
These two diatrically opposed yet mutually symbiotic forces constantly alternated within his perception.
Three hours later.
Su Yuan ceased his spear practice.
"Phew!"
Descending from the high altitude, Su Yuan returned to the North Pole.
Imdiately, deep within his sea of consciousness, he queried the gray mirror: 'Latest physical data!'
Su Yuan asked this after every cultivation session. If spear practice didn't require absolute concentration, he would have constantly asked the gray mirror for data updates while practicing.
The surface of the gray mirror rippled hazily, and lines of text surfaced.
[Life Level: Level 4 (95%)]
[Cultivation thod: Six-Dinsional Cultivation thod]
[Sacred thod: Mind Brand]
[Spear Technique: "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yang" (Perfected)]
[Spear Technique: "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yin" (Perfected)]
[Power of Ultimate Yang: 11%]
[Power of Ultimate Yin: 6%]
[Combat Bonus: 380%]
Over the past half year, Su Yuan had cultivated the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yin" to perfection. Furthermore, his comprehension of the power of Ultimate Yin had reached 6%.
'Comprehending the powers of Ultimate Yin and Ultimate Yang... is just too difficult.'
Su Yuan sighed inwardly.
However, the benefits were imnse. These two special forces had single-handedly boosted his combat application bonus to a staggering 380%.
In other words, Su Yuan's true combat prowess allowed him to unleash an explosive power 3.8 tis his normal strength.
With such a massive amplification in combat strength, even if he couldn't achieve true invincibility among his peers, he definitely wouldn't be lagging behind.
Of course, the "peers" in Su Yuan's eyes referred to cultivators and evolvers who also practiced the Six-Dinsional Cultivation thod.
As for those practicing five-dinsional, four-dinsional, or even three-dinsional thods, even if their combat bonus exceeded 3.8 tis, their overall physical attributes would be vastly inferior to Su Yuan's.
Ultimately, they would still stand no chance of defeating him.
This was the inherent advantage of the Six-Dinsional Cultivation thod; it began stacking advantages from the Planetary Lifeform stage.
As one's Life Level continued to rise, this gap in advantage would only widen until it beca an insurmountable chasm.
Feeling the severe difficulty of comprehending the powers of Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin, Su Yuan pondered for a mont before turning back to the gray mirror in his sea of consciousness.
'How can I fully comprehend the powers of Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin at the fastest speed?'
'List all the thods from easiest to hardest.'
The gray mirror's surface rippled hazily and swiftly provided the answers.
[thod 1: Practice the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yang" and "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yin." You will fully comprehend the powers of Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin in ninety-three years...]
[thod 2: Establish an outer space base and practice the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yang" and "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yin" under the Cosmic Starry Sky. You will fully comprehend the powers of Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin in forty-eight years.]
[thod 96: Practice the "Thirty-six Forms of Ultimate Yang" on the surface of a star to perceive and renew the Universal Origin of Ultimate Yang. You can comprehend the power of Ultimate Yang in two years, then use the power of Ultimate Yang to nourish the power of Ultimate Yin, fully comprehending the power of Ultimate Yin in five years.]
[thod 897: Travel to the Source of the Universe to comprehend Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin. You can fully comprehend the powers of Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin within seven days.]
The gray mirror continuously spawned lines of text, seemingly endless in number.
Out of all the answers, Su Yuan focused primarily on the first few dozen thods. As for the rest? They were just for looking. With his current conditions, he had absolutely no way of achieving them.
'Without relying on external conditions, simply practicing the spear techniques will take ninety-three years...'
Su Yuan stroked his chin.
This was the base comprehension speed, aning the slowest possible tifra.
If he wanted to speed it up, he could leverage various external forces. For example, establishing a space base? Or manufacturing High-Tech Weapons capable of condensing Yin and Yang?
Such actions could drastically shorten the ti needed to fully grasp the powers of Ultimate Yang and Ultimate Yin.
'I will take my ti. Ti is the one thing I have plenty of.'
Su Yuan wasn't in a hurry. Other cultivators might face external pressures, such as enemies hunting them down, making them incredibly desperate to break through as fast as possible.
But Su Yuan was different. Thanks to the gray mirror, he simply wouldn't encounter any real danger. Even if a crisis were to descend, he could resolve or evade it well in advance.
Therefore, ti was sothing Su Yuan had an abundance of.
After reviewing his cultivation progress,
Su Yuan turned his attention to the progress of the High-Tech Weapons being manufactured by the nations of Blue Star.
[High-Energy Laser: Manufacturing progress reached 72%. Everything will proceed smoothly over the next seven days...]
[Atomic Bomb: Manufacturing progress reached 59%. Everything will proceed smoothly over the next seven days...]
[Particle Beam Penetrator: Manufacturing progress reached 43%. It will fall into a production standstill in three days...]
"Hmm?"
Su Yuan checked the detailed information on the "Particle Beam Penetrator" weapon.
The principle of this weapon was to accelerate microscopic particles—like protons and electrons—to form a high-energy beam capable of instantly piercing through a target.
Its penetrative power was so imnse that not even a Level 10 Starry Sky Lifeform could block it. Of course, the premise of a Level 10 Lifeform being unable to block it was if they tried to tank it head-on.
A normal Level 10 Lifeform would have already dodged the instant the Particle Beam Penetrator was fired.
The penetrator's power was extre, but its area of effect was minuscule. Based on the current conditions on Blue Star, the weapon they produced could only pierce through a maximum range of ten ters.
anwhile, with the reaction speed of a Level 10 Starry Sky Lifeform, they could traverse hundreds or even thousands of ters in a split second.
'It will fall into a production standstill in three days...'
Looking at the answer provided by the gray mirror, Su Yuan continued to ask: 'Reason for the standstill.'
The gray mirror's surface rippled hazily and continued its response.
[The pacifist factions in the nation of Arica across the ocean will discover the manufacturing of the "Particle Beam Penetrator" weapon in three days, thereby initiating active protests to force the governnt to halt further research and developnt.]
'Pacifist factions?'
Su Yuan fell silent.
Unlike Great Xia, the nation of Arica across the ocean had nurous ideological factions, the most prominent being animal rights and veganism.
"Xiaolan, contact Bruce."
After a mont of thought, Su Yuan gave the order.
"Yes, Master." Not long after Xiaolan's voice faded,
Bruce's voice rang out. "Greetings, Master."
Bruce was an Eight-Eyed Rank mber of The Truth Society, specifically in charge of the territories across the ocean. When Su Yuan took control of The Truth Society, he didn't reshuffle the jurisdictions of the Eight-Eyed Rank mbers.
Typically, when a new leader seized power, they would enact several large-scale personnel changes to prevent their subordinates from harboring hidden motives.
But Su Yuan had no such worries. The thirteen Eight-Eyed Rank mbers were controlled by the Sacred thod "Mind Brand" and possessed absolute loyalty to him, rendering any superfluous reshuffling unnecessary.
"I have a list here. Find the people on it and eliminate them all,"
Su Yuan commanded smoothly.
He then had Xiaolan send Bruce the list of all the pacifists who would disrupt the research and developnt of the "Particle Beam Penetrator" weapon three days later.
"Understood."
Although Bruce didn't know why Su Yuan wanted to target the people on the list, he didn't ask any questions.
Let alone a re few dozen people; even if it were hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, Bruce wouldn't bat an eye while dealing with them.
For the past century, this was exactly the sort of thing The Truth Society did best.
After ending the call with Bruce, Su Yuan once again asked the gray mirror about the future research progress of the "Particle Beam Penetrator."
The gray mirror's surface rolled hazily.
[Particle Beam Penetrator: Manufacturing progress reached 43%. Everything will proceed smoothly over the next seven days...]
'Resolved.'
Su Yuan nodded slightly.
This was his thod of controlling Blue Star, making all its nations act according to his will.
Through the gray mirror, Su Yuan possessed true foresight, allowing him to easily erase all manner of accidents and variables before they even happened.
He ensured that everything progressed in the exact direction he desired.
'Calculating the ti, it should be about ti to have a chat with Ye Kunlun.'
Su Yuan thought to himself, a subtle shift occurring in his mind.
Over half a year ago, he had ordered Director Zhou to gather various dicinal materials to heal Ye Kunlun. Ultimately, he even used an Athyst Heart from The Truth Society's vault as the main ingredient to bring Ye Kunlun back from the brink of death.
Over the following six months, Su Yuan continuously provided Ye Kunlun with several cultivation techniques, allowing his five-dinsional attributes to recover and reach their peak state.
More accurately, it far surpassed his peak state from a century ago. After receiving Su Yuan's treatnt, Ye Kunlun had thoroughly stabilized at the Level 4 Lifeform stage. Although he would never be able to advance a single step further, he was still infinitely stronger than his Level 2 state from a hundred years ago.
Naturally, Su Yuan hadn't done all this for Ye Kunlun out of charity. He had his own sches and motives.
Imperial Capital, inside a certain secret chamber.
Ye Kunlun sat cross-legged, the energy circulating within his body as the imposing aura of a Level 4 Lifeform perated his surroundings.
'That Lord's thods...'
Even after half a year had passed, Ye Kunlun still found it beyond comprehension.
The more he reflected on his experiences, the more unbelievable he realized Su Yuan's thods were.
Not only had Su Yuan forcefully reversed the process of burning and sacrificing his five dinsions—sothing that should logically be irreversible—
But he had also rapidly restored Ye Kunlun's foundation through various cultivation techniques and external resources, even keeping him permanently anchored at the Level 4 Lifeform stage!
One must know that when Ye Kunlun forcefully burned and sacrificed his five dinsions all those years ago, it only temporarily elevated his Soul dinsion to the threshold of a Level 4 Lifeform.
A harsh drop-off was inevitable afterward.
It was like jumping high into the air; eventually, you had to fall back to the ground.
Because you hadn't established a foundation in the air, you naturally couldn't stay up there.
That was Ye Kunlun's exact situation. He never had the experience of breaking through to Level 3 or Level 4. Forcefully stepping into Level 4 was rely a fleeting flash in the pan.
Yet, Su Yuan had sohow managed to permanently cent that fleeting flash.
What kind of utter fantasy was this?
As for the hidden side effect of never being able to advance further... even if he had normally cultivated to beco a Level 4 Lifeform, his hopes of breaking through to beco a Level 5 Lifeform would have been slim to none anyway.
This flaw was practically non-existent to him.
'That Lord... must have other plans in mind.'
Ye Kunlun thought silently to himself. Over the past half year, he had also learned tidbits about that Lord through Great Xia.
The most certain thing was that this Lord was unfathomably deep. No one could stop what he intended to do, and by the ti anyone noticed, it was already a done deal.
Simply put, whatever that Lord set out to do, he either wouldn't do it at all, or he would succeed with absolute certainty.
Facing such an existence, Ye Kunlun didn't naively believe the other party was purely helping him out of the goodness of his heart. There had to be an ulterior motive.
'However, no matter what that Lord's motives are, I co out ahead either way.'
Ye Kunlun thought to himself. At the very least, he was alive again. He was able to see the Central Plains of Great Xia a century later, and witness how countless civilians were no longer displaced and suffering like they were a hundred years ago.
For that alone, even if he were asked to die right this mont, Ye Kunlun would do so willingly.
Bzzzt! Just then, the projection screen located not far in front of Ye Kunlun suddenly turned on automatically, displaying a Cartoon Character Image.
"Lord."
Seeing this, Ye Kunlun imdiately realized it was Su Yuan contacting him.
For the past half year, Su Yuan had always contacted him in this manner.
"How is your recovery?"
Seeing Ye Kunlun's healthy complexion, Su Yuan asked casually.
In truth, he knew Ye Kunlun's condition like the back of his hand, otherwise, he wouldn't have sought him out at this precise mont.
"I have completely recovered,"
Ye Kunlun imdiately replied.
"Mhm."
Su Yuan nodded.
"If there is anything you need to do, Lord, just give the word. I won't hesitate even if I have to walk through fire and boiling water,"
Ye Kunlun declared earnestly.
Hearing this, Su Yuan didn't directly answer the question. Instead, he smoothly changed the subject. "The life-burning technique you used a century ago to critically injure that Level 4 Android of The Truth Society..."
Su Yuan looked at Ye Kunlun and stated flatly, "...wasn't ruthless enough, and definitely not thorough enough."
