Chapter 144: Brutally Beating Wanyang Holy Son

"Has the Soul compatibility already reached one hundred percent?"

Lin Yuan felt mentally pleased.

As early as when that feeling of 'Perfection' surged from the depths of his Soul, Lin Yuan had already guessed this.

Now that it was confirmed, his mood was naturally good.

"My current strength…"

Lin Yuan slightly closed his eyes, carefully sensing himself.

Compared to before his Soul compatibility reached one hundred percent,

Lin Yuan had hardly undergone any changes.

Physical Body, strength, speed, and everything else.

There was almost no difference before and after.

But Lin Yuan just had a feeling similar to absolute control.

For example, with the exact same thread of power, before Soul compatibility conversion reached one hundred percent,

Lin Yuan could only use it to destroy one city.

But now,

Lin Yuan could use it to destroy ten, a hundred cities.

"No wonder they all say that as long as Soul compatibility reaches one hundred percent, stepping into the sixth tier is as simple as eating and drinking, without the slightest risk."

Lin Yuan's expression looked as if he had realized something.

Previously, he still had some doubts about this;

even when breaking through from the first tier to the second tier, one still has to endure some risks, right?

How could there be no risk when breaking through from the fifth tier to the sixth tier?

It turned out that when the Soul achieves one hundred percent compatibility with one's fundamental Martial Dao Evolution Path, the Evolver has already stepped into the sixth tier in terms of Realm.

On the foundation of having a sixth-tier Realm, stepping into the sixth tier is naturally not difficult; the control power belonging to a sixth-tier Evolver makes the Breakthrough exceptionally simple.

"Also… Martial Dao."

Lin Yuan's gaze was slightly burning.

Taking Martial Dao as his fundamental evolution path, Lin Yuan at this moment seemed to have fused into one with Martial Dao.

"I am Martial Dao."

Lin Yuan's consciousness connected to the Virtual World.

Entering a specialized training ground, the surrounding space automatically simulated, forming an asteroid environment.

Lin Yuan stood above the asteroid; there was no air here, the gravity was extremely low, completely benchmarking against the starry sky coefficients.

Lin Yuan looked down, raised his right hand, and threw a punch toward the asteroid below.

Rumble.

A terrifying pressure burst forth.

On the surface of the asteroid, right at the position directly facing Lin Yuan's punch, a fist mark tens of kilometers in size appeared.

The power of this fist mark penetrated nearly half the planet, and the residual power triggered earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions on the planet's surface, eventually causing the asteroid to disintegrate directly and turn into countless meteorite fragments flying in all directions.

"Am I now infinitely close to a sixth-tier Evolver? Can I even be regarded as a weakened version of a sixth-tier?"

Lin Yuan let out a light breath, looking spirited.

Although the size of the asteroid was not comparable to a normal living planet,

Lin Yuan's full-strength strike causing such an effect

indeed had no difference from a sixth-tier Falling Star.

At least it had almost reached the sixth-tier threshold, barely belonging to the same level.

"Logically speaking, even if Soul compatibility reaches one hundred percent, depending on the evolution path, the magnitude of the buff to an Evolver's strength also differs."

"Like mine, directly soaring my strength to the threshold of the sixth tier, can it be considered extremely rare, or incomparably scarce?"

Lin Yuan's consciousness disconnected from the Virtual World, returning to reality, and thought to himself.

You must know that Lin Yuan was not yet a sixth tier.

When he broke through, his Physical Body and Soul would usher in a massive transformation,

and his strength would surge by another segment, possibly directly reaching a relatively strong level within the sixth tier.

"Martial Dao Evolution Path"

Lin Yuan's mind settled slightly; at this moment, his Soul and the Martial Dao Evolution Path were perfectly compatible, and with every gesture, it was the manifestation of the true meaning of this evolution path.

It was precisely relying on this state of merging as one with the Martial Dao Evolution Path

that Lin Yuan was able to disintegrate an asteroid with a single punch and erupt with ultimate power far exceeding a fifth-tier Evolver.

"The scarlet spirit liquid will only be shipped over in a few days. Once the scarlet spirit liquid arrives, I can step into the sixth tier."

Lin Yuan thought.

Breaking through from the fifth tier to the sixth tier, both the Physical Body and Soul will undergo transformation, naturally requiring a huge amount of pure energy.

Although within the Cosmic Starry Sky, infinite energy is permeated,

those energies are chaotic and their concentration is very low.

Waiting to slowly absorb cosmic energy to break through to the sixth tier, how long would that take?

As an exclusive resource of the Chi Kun lineage, the scarlet spirit liquid is most suitable for one's own energy accumulation,

and could not be more suitable for breaking through to the sixth tier.

"Upon reaching the sixth tier, making my identity public should make many forces unable to believe it."

Without thinking, Lin Yuan knew that his true identity would cause a huge wave in the Chi Kun Star Region, and might even spread toward other Star Domains.

A sixth-tier Evolver under the age of a hundred is not like the Wanyang Holy Son, who enjoyed the all-out cultivation of the Wan Yang Star Master not long after birth.

Lin Yuan stepping into the sixth tier relied entirely on his own Aptitude and talent.

Several years ago, he was still a fourth-tier Evolver, participating in the Seven Stars Cave trial.

From the fourth tier to the sixth tier, it only took a few years?

Looking across the territory of Human Civilization, among the countless geniuses born within a hundred thousand years, those who could have this cultivation speed aren't many, right?

"Sixth-tier Evolvers, their essence of life undergoes a transformation. Spend some time to integrate one's own life mark into the Cosmic Starry Sky. Thus, even if they fall in the future, they can rely on this trace of the life mark to be 'resurrected' by the Supreme Powerhouse of the Human Race."

Why is it that upon reaching the sixth tier, one can make their identity public and fear no assassination by alien races?

As long as the alien race is willing to pay a sufficient price, let alone the sixth tier, even the seventh tier cannot stop them.

The reason is that upon reaching the sixth tier, one already possesses the qualification to be 'resurrected'.

Below the sixth tier, the essence of life is too weak to leave a mark; once dead, they are truly dead.

Alien races are unwilling to assassinate sixth-tier and above Evolvers because even if they pay a huge price to assassinate a certain Genius Evolver, there is still a possibility of being 'resurrected' afterward.

This is completely a losing business.

Of course, even for Human Civilization, 'resurrecting' a certain Evolver also requires bearing great pressure.

Many sixth-tier and seventh-tier Evolvers, even if they can be 'resurrected', will not be 'resurrected'.

"The few days before the scarlet spirit liquid is delivered, I can finish fighting the remaining challenge applications."

Lin Yuan glanced at the many Evolvers he had applied to battle in the arena area.

Anyway, there was nothing much to do right now, and battling these Genius Evolvers from the human territory was also a kind of harvest.

Especially that Wanyang Holy Son; ever since losing to the other party once, Lin Yuan applied again after a few days, and the other party also agreed.

The next day.

It was still that same time.

Around the arena where Lin Yuan was about to appear, a large number of spectators gathered.

"Why is this Thirteenth Peak Lord sparring with the Wanyang Holy Son again?"

"Didn't they just fight recently? There is a huge gap in strength between the two."

"That's right, could it be that the Thirteenth Peak Lord likes being abused?"

Around the arena, countless spectators were discussing animatedly.

Although they liked watching the Thirteenth Peak Lord's arena matches, that was because they wanted to see the Thirteenth Peak Lord crush and utterly beat his opponents,

instead of being crushed and utterly beaten.

Especially some spectators from the Chi Kun Star Region, who were somewhat afraid to continue watching.

Watching their own 'idol' being burned into nothingness by the Wanyang Holy Son with their own eyes is undoubtedly a kind of torture.

"Hhahahaha, Holy Son, go for it, continue to crush the opponent."

"Just a defeated opponent, not an enemy of a single strike for our Holy Son."

"People of the Chi Kun Star Region, listen up. Next, you will see the strength of our Holy Son crushing everything."

Compared to the gloomy spectators of the Chi Kun Star Region, the spectators on the Wanyang Star Domain side were extremely excited.

Anyway, the Thirteenth Peak Lord's status and position in the Chi Kun Star Region were very high. Even if he had already lost to the Wanyang Holy Son once, if he could lose again, it would still be a pleasing thing to the eyes.

"What are you feeling smug about?"

"People from the Wanyang Star Domain really have no class."

"The Wanyang Holy Son is strong, but the Thirteenth Peak Lord is not weak either. Is there any need to talk like that?"

Although the spectators on the Chi Kun Star Region side felt aggrieved, they didn't know how to reply. Strength is the foundation of everything. The previous battle between the Thirteenth Peak Lord and the Wanyang Holy Son was indeed inferior to the latter.

This point hadn't changed, so they didn't know how to refute those spectators from the Wanyang Star Domain, feeling as if they were lower than others.

At a location near the east side of the arena match venue.

Lin Yi sat together with a few good friends, waiting for the match to begin.

"My brother stood me up again."

Lin Yi looked left and right, discovering that Lin Yuan still hadn't come by now, and her expression instantly dropped.

"Yiyi, I heard your brother is also an evolution Genius and won an arena championship on your planet?" Sitting next to Lin Yi, a girl with double ponytails asked curiously.

She came from another planet and met Lin Yi in the Virtual World.

"That's right."

Hearing this, Lin Yi's face showed a complacent expression.

She glanced at the arena below, thought of the Thirteenth Peak Lord who was about to appear, and shook her head saying, "Compared to the Thirteenth Peak Lord, my brother is far too lacking."

Not only was he far behind, but he was also unwilling to come over and watch or learn. Lin Yi was so angry her teeth itched, thinking Lin Yuan was hanging out with some friend again.

"Evolvers who can compare with the Thirteenth Peak Lord are really not many."

Another little sister next to her spoke, evidently extremely admiring the Thirteenth Peak Lord.

Arena match venue.

This time the simulated environment was a desolate planet, several times larger than Canglan Star, enough for two fifth-tier peak Evolvers to fight.

Swoosh.

Lin Yuan's figure appeared on a mountain peak.

Not long after,

on another mountain peak in the distance, the Wanyang Holy Son appeared.

The Wanyang Holy Son's expression was calm, and the aura he emitted was gentle and warm.

"Thirteenth Peak Lord."

The Wanyang Holy Son looked at Lin Yuan in the distance, inevitably raising doubts in his heart.

Not long ago, this Thirteenth Peak Lord had fought with him. He should have realized the strength gap between the two, so why is he still planning to throw an egg at a rock now?

You must know that the stronger an expert is, the more they care about face. Losing to the Wanyang Holy Son once wasn't enough, and he wants to lose twice?

"This Thirteenth Peak Lord, after every battle, his strength gets a bit stronger. Could it be that he is treating me as a whetstone?"

A smile appeared on the Wanyang Holy Son's face.

A whetstone? That's under the circumstance of similar or comparable strength.

If he goes all out and ends the battle in the shortest time, what kind of polishing effect can it have?

A few minutes later.

The match began.

Lin Yuan and the Wanyang Holy Son stared at each other.

"Thirteenth Peak Lord, you must be careful this time."

The Wanyang Holy Son's thoughts stirred slightly, and a scorching aura began to permeate.

"You too."

Lin Yuan smiled slightly.

His figure disappeared in place.

"Huh?"

The Wanyang Holy Son was startled in his heart.

He unexpectedly didn't see at all when Lin Yuan disappeared.

"How did his speed become so fast?"

The Wanyang Holy Son's expression changed slightly.

At this time, the Wanyang Holy Son only vaguely felt that Lin Yuan still existed on the arena, but exactly what position he was in could indeed not be locked onto.

"Relying solely on speed cannot win against me."

The Wanyang Holy Son let out a cold snort, instantly releasing his own 'Wanyang Domain'.

In an instant,

with the Wanyang Holy Son as the center,

a radius of ten miles, a hundred miles, several hundred miles was completely filled with terrifying scorching heat.

"Wanyang, Same Heaven!!!"

The Wanyang Holy Son was like an Incarnation of a 'star'. Within the Domain range, miniature stars constantly condensed, releasing boundless scorching heat, and then exploded.

Since he couldn't lock onto Lin Yuan's position, he would directly destroy an entire area completely.

Anyway, Lin Yuan was definitely in this area.

Hum.

Right at this moment,

one thousand meters away from the Wanyang Holy Son, a figure emerged.

It was precisely Lin Yuan.

Facing the surrounding scorching heat and burning,

Lin Yuan did not retreat in the slightest, reached out his right hand towards the Wanyang Holy Son, and slapped him.

Boom.

Terrifying power enveloped them,

contacting the Wanyang Domain and the secret technique 'Wanyang Same Heaven'.

But what made the Wanyang Holy Son find it incredible was that the power of Lin Yuan's slap actually penetrated the Wanyang Domain instantly.

"Not good."

The Wanyang Holy Son's expression changed drastically, and his figure began to violently retreat.

However, Lin Yuan took another step forward, appearing a hundred meters away from the Wanyang Holy Son, and continued to slap out with another palm.

Rumble.

The air was torn apart. Lin Yuan's attack was too ferocious. Although it was just a simple slap, it vaguely enveloped the surroundings, covering every position. The Wanyang Holy Son couldn't even dodge it.

Whoosh.

The Wanyang Holy Son had no choice but to bite the bullet and take Lin Yuan's slap head-on.

The next moment,

the Wanyang Holy Son's figure exploded.

Whoosh!!

Countless scorching flames converged.

Several miles away, the Wanyang Holy Son's figure condensed again.

"My Wanyang Undying Body…"

The Wanyang Holy Son had incredulity on his face. The Nine Yang Divine Vein plus the Myriad Fire True Crystal, along with the infinite power deep within the stars, allowed the Wanyang Holy Son to practice the Wanyang Undying Body.

The Wanyang Undying Body could turn the Physical Body into energy in a short time, similar to the 'God of Thunder's Incarnation of thunder, but the Wanyang Undying Body was even more profound and high-end,

possessing the effect of a substitute death.

Without the Wanyang Undying Body, the Wanyang Holy Son would have directly died from being slapped into powder by Lin Yuan just now, unable to survive at all.

"I concede defeat."

The Wanyang Holy Son applied for concession without hesitation. Although he was not dead yet and the Wanyang Undying Body could still substitute death a few times,

having witnessed the terrifying strength displayed by Lin Yuan, the Wanyang Holy Son was unwilling to continue wasting time.

Even if he dragged it out relying on the Wanyang Undying Body, what of it? It would be nothing more than taking a few more slaps, with no face or dignity to speak of.

"You should be able to step into the sixth tier at any time."

"See you at the sixth tier."

The Wanyang Holy Son took a deep look at Lin Yuan, and his figure disappeared.

The difference in Lin Yuan's strength before and after was too huge; the only possibility was that his Soul transformation had reached Perfection.

"Won just like this?"

Lin Yuan also felt that he had won too easily. Taking the Martial Dao Evolution Path as the fundamental evolution path, with Soul compatibility and conversion reaching one hundred percent, the boost to his strength was simply too huge.

"What's going on?"

Lin Yuan looked around.

He found that the surroundings had all quieted down.

On the stands of the arena match, countless spectators, whether from the Chi Kun Star Region side, the Wanyang Star Domain side, or the 'neutral' spectators from other Star Domains,

were all dumbfounded with their mouths wide open.
