Chapter 340: Limit! Soul Collapse
Chapter 340: Limit! Soul Collapse
“The soul is transforming.”
"My willpower is improving." Li Yuan said secretly.
In just three months, willpower increased from level 40 to level 41.
Although his mental strength did not increase in level, Li Yuan could clearly feel the subtle changes in his soul.
But this is far from enough.
"My body can't provide any help to the nurturing of the soul. Instead, it is becoming a burden." Li Yuan realized this: "I must push myself to a greater extent."
In this way, when Li Yuan was practicing "The Sutra of Observing the Big Sun and Starry Sky", his consciousness was closer to the big sun.
The effect of cultivation was indeed better, but the pain of tearing the soul also soared again! !
The damage to the soul is even greater.
Therefore, the number of fourth-level soul treasures consumed by Li Yuan increased... A large amount of seven-star points were invested, which surprised Old Yun, who had been in charge of purchasing.
The quantity is too large.
Even if he purchased it through the Wanjie Chamber of Commerce, the price gradually became higher, and he had to report to Dongfang Ji again.
"Let him be."
"The birth of a peerless demon requires talent, perseverance, and vast resources. These three are indispensable." Dongfang Ji said calmly: "Finally, a little bit of luck is also needed."
"It's just that this consumes too many resources." The deep voice couldn't help but say: "If we still use the original points to calculate the price, I'm afraid we will suffer losses."
"Li Yuan is talented and has strong willpower." Dongfang Ji shook his head and said, "What's so great about these resources? They are not even as valuable as a sixth-tier treasure... Don't feel bad. Haven't we already started mining the resources in Mingxu Star Realm? We will get our money back."
"Master, I'm just worried that it will all be in vain in the end." said a low voice.
"How can everything be rewarding?" Dongfang Ji laughed, "Those gods who accept disciples are all peerless monsters, and they will spend a lot of resources to train them... In the end, it is difficult for one out of ten to become a god."
"I'm willing to give it up."
"If you don't give up, how can you gain anything?"
……
As Li Yuan practiced crazily, time passed and his soul fluctuated and changed, which naturally made Liu Bing feel it.
Inside the Heavenly Snake Palace.
"Big brother."
"Why are the mental fluctuations so intense? Why is it so painful?" The green snake Liu Bing sensed the outside world and Li Yuan's situation and was worried about it.
During the first few months of Li Yuan's practice, his soul fluctuations were relatively normal.
Since most of the time was spent resting, Liu Bing didn't care too much.
She has been focusing on her own cultivation.
But now, the situation has changed greatly from the beginning. In the quiet room outside, a trace of blood can be seen on Li Yuan's body, and his body is trembling.
The soul is in so much pain that the body is about to begin to collapse, which is absolutely horrifying. As the source of power circulates, the body's injuries will gradually recover.
And soon, under the influence of the severe pain in the soul, the body will bleed again.
It keeps repeating over and over again!
Physical injuries are easy to recover from, but the pain of the soul cannot be relieved.
How could Liu Bing not notice such a violent fluctuation of soul?
wow~
Inside the hall, a one-horned burly shadow gathered, it was none other than Qiu Bingzun.
"He should want to attack the demigod level soul." Qiu Bingzun said softly: "What a big ambition, a source warrior... actually wants to become a demigod level soul."
"Demigod-level soul?" Liu Bing was stunned: "Can it be done?"
"He should have cultivated an extremely advanced visualization method, perhaps not inferior to your inherited visualization method, which can sharpen and restore the soul to the extreme." Qiu Bingzun said: "At the same time, this Seven Star Civilization is indeed special. It can get so many fourth-level treasures for him to assist his soul cultivation."
"Even so, the hope of success is very low." Qiu Bingzun said: "The external environment is still too bad."
"The hope is very low?" Liu Bing felt a pain in his heart.
“Xiao Bing, think about it, in your inherited memories, how many of the Holy Blood Sky Snakes of all generations could reach the semi-god level of soul at the second stage?” Qiu Bingzun shook his head and said, “Isn’t it said that as long as you cross the threshold of the law and sharpen your spirit and will to the limit of flying, you can break through to fly?”
"Yes." Liu Bing nodded. There was a complete set of standards in her inherited memory.
These past few years.
She has been practicing diligently and has made amazing progress... Her natural bloodline has enabled her to step into the threshold of the Law of Wind, but her spiritual willpower has not improved very fast.
There's no way around it. She's only been born a few years ago, and it's difficult for her to grow mentally.
"At the second level, even if you practice the most powerful body-refining astrology, your body is too weak. It is meaningless to force a demigod-level soul."
“In theory, with Li Yuan’s strong will, once he breaks through to the Flying Heaven level, his soul will quickly transform into the Demigod level… Blindly pursuing the limit will only lead to the danger of soul collapse.” Qiu Bingzun said: “Unless, he wants to use this to impact higher star veins… But according to his progress speed, if he practices step by step, he can still reach the Seven Star Veins in a few years.”
"There's no need to be so demanding at this moment."
"I can't figure it out." Qiu Bingzun really didn't understand Li Yuan's actions.
"Seven Star Veins are not difficult for Big Brother." Liu Bing said: "Big Brother, do you want to attack the second-level eight star veins?"
“Impossible!” Qiu Bingzun shook his head and said, “His talent is very high, but he is in the dimensional domain. The training conditions of the Seven Star Civilization are only relatively good compared to the mortal domain. Compared with the great forces in the divine domain, it is countlessly worse.”
"He hasn't entered the Nine Leaves and Nine Mountains yet. Unless a god brings him the origin treasure... Otherwise, even if he awakens a demigod soul, there is no hope."
"The several second-level eight-star veins that were born in the history of my Sky Snake Clan are all very special." Qiu Bingzun said: "The strongest talent, plus the best external conditions... plus some luck."
"Only then can the second-order eight-star veins be born."
"This means that the foundation is stronger than that of the strongest divine beast." Qiu Bingzun said: "Those few people in the tribe's history who survived and grew up eventually dominated an era."
Liu Bing couldn't help but nodded.
There are relevant stories in her inherited memories.
"Will there be a miracle?" Liu Bing couldn't help but ask. She really hoped that Li Yuan would become strong.
“Xiao Bing, miracles always have traces to follow.” Qiu Bingzun said, “For example, if Li Yuan could become a demigod soul, it would also be a miracle… but the basis for such a miracle is that his willpower has reached the demigod level.”
"Eight Star Veins?"
“He hasn’t even developed seven star veins yet, how can he develop eight star veins?” Qiu Bingzun shook his head and said, “Level 2, the sooner you break through, the better, and no later than fifty years old.”
Liu Bing tapped the snake's head lightly.
"Should I try to persuade my elder brother?" Liu Bing said in a low voice.
"You can persuade, but don't persuade too much."
Qiu Bingzun said: "The path of cultivation is one that one walks on one's own... Since he has chosen to walk this path, he must be determined."
"The stronger the will, the more unshakable it is once a decision is made!"
……
Liu Bing's persuasion.
Unsurprisingly, it failed.
"Xiao Bing, I understand. I know what's going on." Li Yuan responded to Liu Bing with a smile.
Don't you have to force yourself to be a source warrior and have a demigod soul?
In the tens of millions of years of history of the Sky Serpent Clan, there are only a handful of second-order eight-star veins?
"What I pursue is to turn the impossible into the possible." Li Yuan's will is terrifyingly firm.
He has seen the possibility of soul transformation, so how could he give up?
Time is like water.
Every day, Li Yuan would practice visualization for more than three hours, but he would push himself too far and it would take him more than ten hours to recover his soul... In the remaining time, he would continue to try to awaken the life star, but the awakening speed was still slow.
In the remaining time, Li Yuan will comprehend the Thousand Illusions Array Diagram and the Starry Sky Diagram, and continue to advance his comprehension of the true meaning.
In the blink of an eye, it was May 2050.
Unconsciously, Li Yuan's true meaning of wind finally broke through, from the sixth intermediate level to the sixth advanced level... The two major laws have reached the same height, and when combined with each other, the power of Li Yuan's spearmanship has skyrocketed again.
In the past, in terms of the sophistication of his moves, Li Yuan had just reached the threshold of demigod.
But now, he is no less powerful than a normal demigod. It's a pity that the combination of laws and mysteries can only improve combat power... It is not of much help to Li Yuan's soul transformation breakthrough.
The only benefit is that under the influence of the mystery of true meaning, the soul recovers faster and the will grows faster.
……
Li Yuan did not give up. He had spent 150 million seven-star points to buy a fourth-level soul treasure.
It is no less than consuming a divine weapon.
But the most crucial thing is the exhaustion of the soul... Being squeezed again and again, approaching the limit again and again, no matter how much external objects are used to recover from the injuries, the exhaustion of the soul's essence cannot be eliminated.
To eliminate? Only time! Take a long rest.
Just like when a person works, a company can improve work efficiency by giving bonuses, and can boost one's spirit by drinking coffee, eating supplements, etc.... but it will greatly increase the risk of sudden death.
This is Li Yuan’s current situation.
No matter how strong his willpower is, no matter how long he can endure, a flying soul has a limit to what it can endure... Once this limit is exceeded, the soul will collapse.
Once it reaches that point, ordinary fourth-tier treasures will be useless.
……
Dongfang Ji finally summoned Li Yuan again.
"Why is your soul so tired?" Dongfang Ji was surprised and realized that something was wrong.
With his level of cultivation, he could feel the fatigue beneath Li Yuan's determined eyes.
Just like an old man in his twilight years.
"You don't have to work so hard. It's destined to be the Seven Star Veins. It doesn't make much difference if it's earlier or later." Dongfang Ji shook his head and said, "When your principal was a source warrior, he gave up because there was no hope of reaching the Seven Star Veins."
"Now, you have become a seven-star vein." Dongfang Ji looked at Li Yuan: "You are already the best in the history of the Seven Star Civilization."
"Everything is excessive or insufficient." Dongfang Ji looked at Li Yuan. He was really worried that Li Yuan might have an accident.
"Alliance leader." Li Yuan smiled and said, "I just hope you can support me as much as you can."
Dongfang Ji looked at Li Yuan's eyes, sighed softly, and thought of many things at once.
"Okay." Dongfang Ji didn't stop Li Yuan after all.
If he wants to stop it, he can just cut off Li Yuan's supply of treasures.
……
"Li Yuan, it's too dangerous."
"With your method of cultivation, you will collapse before your soul can transform." Gu You was full of worry.
She originally thought that Li Yuan would not be able to endure it for too long and would give up this path.
Or you can slowly awaken the Seven Star Veins, and then feel the difficulty of the Eight Star Veins, and you will naturally accept the reality.
But she didn't expect that Li Yuan would choose to impact the demigod level soul, which was too difficult.
The more she observed, the more shocked she was.
How terrifyingly resilient does one have to be able to hold on? Li Yuan was still charging forward desperately, but Gu You was afraid.
…“Brother!”
“You have to give it up.”
"Three months at most. If you continue to practice and strain yourself like this, your soul will surely collapse." Liu Bing's attitude changed completely because her soul was connected to Li Yuan.
The person who knows Li Yuan's soul best is already showing signs of collapse.
"Three months?"
"Xiaobing, thank you for your reminder."
"Then let's keep trying for another three months." After practicing to this level, Li Yuan was actually much more relaxed.
Only this chance.
Once you give up, once you rest.
Then, the soul that is close to transformation through repeated oppression will gradually become weaker due to the limitations of the body... and will have to start all over again next time.
that's it.
Amidst all the worries and doubts, Li Yuan remained unshakable and continued to persevere! !
The road to becoming a strong person is destined to be bumpy.
Chance? Talent?
Without absolutely strong willpower and unprecedented determination, it is difficult to reach the top with just these... Just like when Li Yuan first learned the visualization method as a teenager, even if he relaxed a little during practice, he was destined to achieve good results, but he chose to do his best, gave up all rest time, and achieved his own ultimate.
present.
If he practiced step by step, spent a few more years, broke through with the Seven Star Veins, and then reached the Flying Level and developed the Eight Star Veins... He would still have a bright future, and there would be no risk of soul collapse.
But Li Yuan felt it was not enough.
“Just like when I took the college entrance examination, I failed to get into Xinghuo Wuhan University. I never regretted it because I tried my best.”
“It is still the same today.”
“The opportunity is right in front of us.”
“As long as you reach the demigod level soul, you will be able to raise the upper limit of spiritual guidance to 75%, and then you will have the hope of awakening the Eight Star Veins!!”
The Source Warrior will undergo the third spiritual guidance, and the Feitian level will undergo the third spiritual guidance.
There is an essential difference.
"give up?"
“If I risk everything and still fail in the end, there will be no regrets.” Li Yuan felt peaceful.
Do what you can to the best of your ability.
The rest is left to fate!
……
In the blink of an eye, nearly four months have passed.
Quiet room.
"Click~"
Li Yuan was lying directly on the ground, his body slightly curled up and trembling. The terrible pain from his soul made him completely unable to control his body... Most of his mental consciousness was still concentrated on the Great Sun Jade Platform.
Still trying hard to hold on.
Because, before the last visualization practice, Li Yuan noticed a subtle change in his soul.
"Transformation!"
"The essence of the soul has been squeezed to the extreme and needs to be completely transformed."
Therefore, Li Yuan did not hesitate any longer and chose to give it a try.
This time he has been practicing visualization for more than three days, which is the longest time he has practiced visualization in the past six months.
There was no pause in between.
However, Li Yuan’s soul had already reached its limit.
On the eve of its transformation, it could no longer hold on under the scorching sun and gradually began to collapse.
too tired!
So tired!
It's like a marathon runner who gives his all and is about to reach the finish line with his strong willpower, but his body can't take it anymore.
"Boom~" Li Yuan's consciousness suddenly collapsed, and his soul entered a process of collapse.
