585 Breakthrough, Mentally Lv.
“Senior Brother Jane,” Xu Jingming said, “you and I have been stationed at the front line and have seen the Hellion plundering. It was my first time seeing billions of humans wiped out on an habitable planet, and it triggered me. However, I’ve been stationed at the front line for more than 300 years!”
“I’ve intercepted a large number of Hellion Origin lifeforms in the past 300 years, and I’ve also seen countless habitable planets go extinct. Trillions of humans gone.” Xu Jingming looked at Jane, his eyes calm and emotionless. “Would you care about the so-called dark side after seeing this?”
“Junior Brother.” Jane gazed at Xu Jingming. “True darkness isn’t the death of living beings, but the endless despair that exists when they die! This is the death of the mind! If death in life is the first kind of death, many people can die from a broken heart or from laughter… But death of the mind is despair. The pain is countless times greater.”
Xu Jingming was stunned.
!!
“I once looked straight at the phantom of the abyss,” Jane said. “My mind couldn’t resist and fell into the abyss! Only then did I understand that the hallmark of a powerful mind is remaining untainted in the darkness.”
“Therefore, I cultivate the Dark volume.” Jane stared at Xu Jingming. “Junior Brother, with your talent, it’s not difficult for your mental strength to reach Lv. 11. But if you want to reach Lv. 12 and truly reach high-dimensional… your mind has to experience all kinds of hardships. Therefore, I suggest you experience the darkness and comprehend it. Perhaps it will help your mind break through in the future.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother Jane. I’ll keep it in mind, but my mind hasn’t reached Lv. 11 yet,” Xu Jingming said with a smile.
Jane’s focus was mainly on breaking through mentally.
Three steps to becoming a high-dimensional lifeform: attaining a high-dimensional mind, grasping high-dimensional powers, and constructing a high-dimensional lifeform. Jane was now at the first step.
“Oh right, I’m preparing to head to the Void Celestial battlefield,” Jane said. “I believe the stronger Void Celestials will give me enough training.”
“Be careful, Senior Brother,” Xu Jingming exhorted seriously.
Void Celestials were generally much better than humans.
Be it Lv. 10 or cosmic legends, the Void Celestials were generally stronger! After all, the Void Celestials had Gumo, who was one step away from becoming a third-realm high-dimensional lifeform. Under his guidance, the Void Celestials were naturally more elite.
“When do you plan on going to the Void Celestial battlefield?” Jane asked. “With your Spacetime Travel speed, you can rush back to the Hellion battlefield in a minute even if you’re far away on the Void Celestial battlefield. It’s enough to intercept the Hellions. There won’t be any delays.”
Xu Jingming shook his head slightly. “I’ve applied! Secretary General Blacksky said that one can’t go to the Void Celestial battlefield unless their mind reaches Lv. 11.”
“I have high expectations of you.” Jane smiled. “Alright, it’s time for me to set off.”
A spaceship appeared by the side. Jane waved at him before entering the spaceship.
Other than Xu Jingming and a few others, ordinary Origin lifeforms still relied on spaceships for long-distance traveling.
Xu Jingming also waved him goodbye.
Take care, Xu Jingming thought to himself.
Void Celestial battlefield.
Xu Jingming also had desires. The strongest Origin lifeforms of the human race were there, but even so, the human race was generally at a disadvantage. It had to be known that only a small portion of the Void Celestials’ strength dealt with the human race.
The Void Celestials also needed to fight several other large species at the same time.
Mental strength is my weakness. When facing high-dimensional enemies, death is trivial once my mind is affected! Loss of the Primordial Battle Armor #9 and the Primordial Fire Bead, and the wastage of the Abyss Fire Lotus Seed would rack up huge losses, Xu Jingming thought.
Some of the dean’s 36 Primordial Fire Beads had been lost after being used repeatedly by Origin lifeforms.
…
Xu Jingming returned to his residence.
In a secluded residence, he sat cross-legged in his chamber. The space in front of him was distorted, and there was a small half of the cosmic fruit inside.
Xu Jingming cut another piece. According to his cutting speed, he could finish this cosmic fruit in 200 years.
He consumed it now only to better understand the Primordial Star, so he ate them slowly.
Crack.
The distorted space wrapped a large piece of fruit into his mouth. After finishing it, Xu Jingming put away the remaining fruit. The flow of time in Primordial Battle Armor #9’s auxiliary space was almost stagnant, and it perfectly guaranteed the quality of the fruit.
Primordial Star!
After consuming the fruit, the surging strength in his body allowed Xu Jingming to pry on the vast and distorted Primordial Star again! In the middle of the vast and distorted Primordial Star, a towering figure vaguely condensed.
I’ve consumed the cosmic fruit for more than 100 years, but I’m still very shocked every time I experience it. As Xu Jingming viewed it, he diverted his attention to sense the Primordial Fire Bead in his heart.
The two were compared.
An hour later, after the surging strength in his body calmed down, Xu Jingming began visualizing the Primordial Star—the greatest high-dimensional celestial body.
It appeared calm and reserved, and it only emitted light and heat steadily. However, its light seeped into endless spacetime and affected endless life. Universe after universe was bathed in its light.
If one approached it, they would understand its true side.
Every seemingly gentle beam of light was condensed from countless Primordial Star Flames at close range! Countless beams of light were the incalculable eruptions of the Primordial Star Flames.
Flames erupted in an incomprehensible manner, tearing through the obstructions of countless spacetimes and illuminating one universe after another.
Even for someone as weak as Xu Jingming, this great celestial body could still ‘look’ at him when he visualized it, allowing him to bask in its light.
“I…”
Xu Jingming felt the Primordial Star’s clearer gaze. His life trembled, and his mind and consciousness quickly became stronger under its light.
Be it the Primordial Fire Bead or the source of the power contained in the cosmic fruit, they were closer to the Primordial Star’s reality than Xu Jingming’s! Therefore, Xu Jingming gained an understanding from the Primordial Fire Bead and the cosmic fruit’s power to constantly enrich the Primordial Star in his heart.
As it approached reality, it naturally favored Xu Jingming more.
It was too difficult to comprehend it.
An apple in the universe contained infinite information. From a three-dimensional point of view, it had smell, color, appearance, and all kinds of other factors—if magnified billions of times, it was composed of countless atoms. Going deeper… it contained countless Force structures.
It was dynamic, on the path toward ripening to even rotting.
A person in the real universe was countless times more complicated than an apple.
What about high-dimensional spatial objects?
What about the greatest celestial body in high-dimensional space, the Primordial Star? There were too many facets to comprehend. Even great high-dimensional lifeforms had to humbly study and understand it. They didn’t even dare to approach it.
Boom!
Amidst the transformation, Xu Jingming’s entire body burned with flames.
...
Xu Jingming found this feeling wonderful.
I’m the Primordial Star, and the Primordial Star is me. Xu Jingming understood why the ‘existence’ at the source of the cosmic fruit first saw the distorted and violent Primordial Star before condensing into a towering figure.
There was also the dean! The dean’s consciousness carrier at the research institute’s headquarters was also a miniature Primordial Star.
The path of the Primordial Star lineage is to turn oneself into a weakened Primordial Star. Moreover, as one evolves, they will constantly grow and approach the Primordial Star, Xu Jingming thought. Compared to the human body or other body structures, after becoming a high-dimensional lifeform… the miniature Primordial Star is their truest form.
Xu Jingming retracted his flames, but his eyes suffused golden light.
Whoosh.
Xu Jingming looked up at the outside world.
His figure turned into a blur as he entered high-dimensional space and looked down at the vast area. He had previously grasped all the strength of the Primordial Battle Armor. After his mind broke through, his control became more precise, and his high-dimensional observation range increased greatly.
An observation range with a diameter of 3,622 light-years. Xu Jingming watched.
Transformation into the Primordial Star, Xu Jingming thought.
Boom!
...
Flames rose from Xu Jingming’s body as they surrounded him, turning him into a miniature Primordial Star!
The Primordial Fire Bead was a high-dimensional weapon with very high requirements! Xu Jingming had accumulated knowledge to Lv. 99 and had learned everything he needed to learn. After grasping in the dark for an extended period, he had only comprehended one method to fight the enemy.
Power surrounded his body, forming a structure similar to the Primordial Star.
He relied on this state to charge! Although he looked clumsy doing so, this was Xu Jingming’s only means of fighting the enemy with the Primordial Fire Bead.
Huh? Xu Jingming’s mind had undergone a transformation from transforming into the Primordial Star, allowing him to control his strength more precisely. His penetration of the Primordial Fire Bead had also increased significantly.
The miniature Primordial Star condensed even more and even began to affect the surrounding spacetime.
It’s beginning to form a domain? Xu Jingming was delighted. For a domain to appear in high-dimensional space, it must be much stronger in the universe.
Hu!
He returned to the universe.
A miniature Primordial Star floated, and in the middle was Xu Jingming’s figure! An invisible domain affected a vast area.
A star and planet affected surrounding spacetime to a certain extent.
As for Xu Jingming, he used the Primordial Fire Bead in his body as a core and eventually transformed into a miniature Primordial Star. The domain that came with it… was much more terrifying, and the super gravity distorted spacetime.
I’ll try other moves. Xu Jingming began to familiarize himself with the other moves. After his mind transformed, his control became more precise, and the might of cosmic legend moves could be increased to a certain extent.
Moments later.
Xu Jingming looked at the projection in front of him.
“Master, your cosmic legend moves have been appraised and confirmed,” Nine said.
On the projection—
“High-dimensional traveling, Spacetime Travel, Origin Disintegration, Infinite Domain, Body of Fire, Thread, Primordial Star Incarnation.”
Xu Jingming looked at the seven high-dimensional means he could use. The first six could only be used with Primordial Battle Armor #9, and the last one could only be used with the Primordial Fire Bead.
He currently had to rely on external objects. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to use these high-dimensional powers.
I’ve spent a lot of effort on the Primordial Star Conjecture over the years, and I’ve accumulated enough knowledge. I’ve finally gained something. Xu Jingming was in a good mood.
Just seven high-dimensional means weren’t much.
There were many ways to use a high-dimensional power. For example, Sovereign Moyou’s Nightmare power had many means—Nightmare World, World Incarnation, Mental Invasion, World Escape, and so on.
Xu Jingming’s seven means were actually two kinds—the spacetime lineage and the Primordial Star lineage.
“Master, your mind has reached Lv. 11, and you’ve accumulated quite a bit in all aspects. In terms of strength, you’re already ranked in the top ten of the Primordial Research Institute’s Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms,” Nine said.
