Chapter 162: Chapter 93: Mirror Space, Celestial Eye Alien Race
This wasn’t like Qi, which could be instantly replenished by taking a pill.
Burning Life Qi Blood was, in a sense, overdrafting one’s very Life Force.
To use a simple analogy, it was like an electronic device’s battery dropping from one hundred percent to one percent in an instant.
Recharging it normally would take a very long time. The Celestial Destiny Skill was like a super-fast charger, but even that required some time for a full charge.
Bodily Evolution, on the other hand, was like being instantly recharged by a nuclear reactor—a full recovery, like swapping in a brand-new battery.
’Ultimate Form... I wonder if I’ll be able to handle it even after becoming a Sixth-level Martial Artist,’ Chen Yu thought.
’One more Evolution, and I should be able to withstand it for a while,’ Chen Yu mused, looking at his interface.
The increase in Life Qi Blood from Bodily Evolution was far greater than the increase from simply raising one’s cultivation level.
But that was on the condition that he had enough Source of Life.
Four hundred million Source of Life.
A haul like today’s would need to be repeated more than four times to reach that amount.
Shaking himself from his thoughts, Chen Yu decided not to dwell on it for now.
Even without unleashing his ultimate Senluo Form, his current strength was enough to dominate vast numbers of enemies.
’I can’t get too greedy.’
Nothing is accomplished in a single leap. He was already very satisfied with his recent power boost.
He had almost reached a peak that ordinary people couldn’t hope to achieve in a lifetime.
’Over fifty million left...’
Chen Yu pondered as he looked at the remaining Source of Life.
With over fifty million Source of Life, he could only choose one of two upgradable Skills.
Divine Will and Destructive Celestial Light!
After some consideration, Chen Yu decided to upgrade Divine Will.
His current Qi reserves were already strained by Destructive Celestial Light. Even if he upgraded it to the Ultimate level, he wouldn’t have enough Qi to unleash its true power.
At his fifth-level cultivation, a single use of the Perfection Level Destructive Celestial Light could nearly drain all his Qi.
Divine Will, on the other hand, would summon the will of a True God for a temporary, all-attribute boost. At least he could unleash his full power with it. The consequence, however... would probably be the same as when Dongfang Yao used her ultimate: he’d be left completely incapacitated.
However, as a trump card, he wouldn’t use it lightly under normal circumstances.
OMMM——!
Within the Chaos, the orb of light swelled, and in an instant, its radiance surpassed all the others.
A tremor swept through his body. A moment later, everything stabilized. Chen Yu opened his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.
The upgrade was a success. It had reached the Ultimate level!
With a thought, he summoned his interface to check.
Name: Chen Yu
Talent: Limitless Physique (Tier Seven 0/400,000,000) [Unique Talent]
Skills: Frozen Heaven and Earth (Awakened Legend Level 2 0/100,000,000) Biological Force Field (Golden Legend Ultimate 0/400,000,000) Divine Will (Golden Legend Ultimate 0/600,000,000) Divine Speed Power (Legend Ultimate 215/300,000,000) Destructive Celestial Light (Epic Perfection Level 0/50,000,000) Senluo’s Fury (Legend Ultimate 0/300,000,000)
Source of Life: 14,785,000
Skill Points: 0
’They’re all over a hundred million...’
Looking at the interface, Chen Yu’s heart felt heavy.
Ultimate Skills were basically upgraded in increments of hundreds of millions.
’If all of these Awaken...’
’Hiss... Does that mean I’ll have to destroy an entire world just to upgrade in the future?!’
The thought flashed through his mind, and Chen Yu couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.
The Source of Life required for the Evolution that came after maxing out a skill would likely reach a terrifyingly high amount.
Even if the increase wasn’t that dramatic, just having the cost double each time would be a struggle!
Once he reached a certain point, the life in an entire world probably wouldn’t be enough to satisfy his appetite.
Stellar Battlefield!
The term flashed in Chen Yu’s mind once more.
His future path could only be the sea of stars!
Then again, perhaps a single, top-tier expert would be enough.
After all, the stronger the opponent he defeated, the more Source of Life he would obtain.
At this thought, Chen Yu felt a little more at ease.
Closing the interface, Chen Yu got up and went to another bedroom.
’The universe is vast and infinite, teeming with countless lives. I don’t need to overthink it. If I have the strength, I just need to act.’
’Besides, humanity has so many enemies among the Alien Races; what’s one or two more?’
This round of upgrades had been a massive boost.
——
Time passed like a flood.
「Early the next day.」
Chen Yu and An Ran arrived at the hospital.
As soon as they reached the door of the special hospital ward, Chen Yu saw several figures.
One was a middle-aged man in a sharp suit. Chen Yu recognized the others.
The Level 6 member of the Alliance, the man with long hair and sunglasses.
As well as his senior, Dongfang Yi!
On the hospital bed, Dongfang Yao, who had been in a coma, had already awakened after some recovery. However, her face was still sickly pale.
As Chen Yu and An Ran appeared, all eyes in the room turned to them.
"Sister Yao, you’re awake! That’s wonderful." An Ran immediately stepped forward, a joyful expression on her face.
"Sister Yao, how are you feeling?" An Ran looked at Dongfang Yao, a concerned expression on her face.
A faint smile appeared on Dongfang Yao’s pale, pretty face. "I’m fine. I just need to rest and I’ll recover."
An Ran breathed a sigh of relief before turning to the man in the suit. "Uncle Zhen, what are you doing here?"
The man in the suit looked at An Ran with a stern expression. "You silly girl, with something this major happening, how could I not come to check?"
As he spoke, the man in the suit looked at Chen Yu, sizing him up from top to bottom.
"You must be Chen Yu?"
Chen Yu looked at this serious-faced man in a suit and nodded.
"To escape from a place as dangerous as the Abyss... you’ve done well." The man in the suit said, a hint of approval in his eyes.
Chen Yu breathed an inward sigh of relief. The man was so serious that he’d thought he was there to cause trouble.
"Chen Yu, this is my second uncle, Dongfang Zhen!" Dongfang Yi spoke up.
"It’s an honor to meet you, Senior Dongfang Zhen." Chen Yu nodded, offering a polite greeting.
