Chapter 55: Greetings, Teacher ‘Yuan’

"Please speak."

President Liao's expression turned serious, but his heart relaxed.

For him, since he had a favor to ask of Lin Yuan, he wasn't afraid of Lin Yuan making demands. What he feared most was Lin Yuan having no desires or requests.

"I want a Virtual World cabin."

Lin Yuan spoke up.

A Virtual World cabin could scan the entire body, allowing for a 100% simulation of the Physical Body, and then synchronize with the Physical Body within the Virtual World.

Upon returning from this traversal, Lin Yuan's strength had increased significantly, but his Physical Body within the Virtual World was still stuck at the state before the traversal.

If it were any other Evolver, they wouldn't have much need for a Virtual World cabin. After all, who knows how long it takes them to improve their strength once?

However, Lin Yuan possessed Heaven-Defying Comprehension, and his own strength could be said to be improving every single moment.

Not to mention that every time he returned from a traversal, it would usher in a qualitative change.

Consequently, a Virtual World cabin was needed to constantly update his strength within the Virtual World.

"A Virtual World cabin. No problem."

"I will have someone send it to Mr. Lin later. It's still at Shuiyue Community, right?"

President Liao agreed immediately without even thinking.

After all, a Virtual World cabin was not some restricted item. As long as one was an Evolver, they had the right to apply to the association for the use of a Virtual World cabin.

Gifting one to Lin Yuan wasn't a big deal.

With his objective achieved, Lin Yuan chatted casually with President Liao for a few more moments before getting up to return to Shuiyue Community.

That afternoon, Lin Yuan received the Virtual World cabin.

Following the user instructions, he scanned his entire body with the cabin. After a 100% replication, Lin Yuan immediately connected his consciousness to the Virtual World.

Inside his personal room, Lin Yuan unleashed a full-power strike. Terrifying force surged outward, directly piercing through a distant Mountain Peak.

"It feels comfortable now."

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

On Canglan Star, let alone executing a full-power strike, Lin Yuan couldn't even casually throw out a single blow.

After all, given his strength, the consequence of a casual strike might be the death of tens of thousands of citizens.

However, in the Virtual World, all of this could be ignored.

With Lin Yuan's current citizen authority, the area of his personal space reached ten thousand square kilometers, and it could also simulate any environment, which was more than enough for him to mess around in.

"Let me check the number of people cultivating the Martial Dao Evolution Path now."

Lin Yuan opened his personal interface and looked at the further details beneath the Martial Dao Evolution Path.

[Evolution Path: Martial Dao]

[Number of people cultivating the Innate Chapter: Two thousand five hundred and ninety-eight]

[Number of people cultivating the Grandmaster Chapter: Zero]

"Huh? It actually increased by over a thousand people?"

Lin Yuan was slightly surprised.

When he checked a few days ago, the number of citizens cultivating the Innate Chapter was still a little over one thousand two hundred.

However, upon second thought, Lin Yuan speculated that it might be the promotional effect of the Canglan Evolution Ranking.

Nowadays, the Martial Dao Evolution Path was already ranked in the top eight of the Evolution Ranking, and its exposure was definitely not low.

"Let me check my direct messages. If the price for guidance is reasonable, taking a few requests is fine too."

Lin Yuan began to continue browsing his direct messages.

Many people were interested in the Martial Dao Evolution Path and were willing to pay a hefty sum of money to ask Lin Yuan, the founder, for some guidance.

This would also allow them to better understand the characteristics of this Evolution Path and whether it was truly suitable for themselves.

"Aiya, just which Physical Body is this? Which Evolution Path is actually suitable for me anyway?!"

Inside a spacious grand hall, Lou Lanhe complained in a vexed tone as he crawled out of the nutrient pod.

He was about one and a half meters tall, and his forehead was covered with mysterious patterns.

"Young Master Lou Lan, among the many Evolution Paths of our Human Civilization, not a single Evolution Path is all smooth sailing."

An elderly man wearing a black robe standing nearby said respectfully.

"I know, I know."

Lou Lanhe's voice was filled with helplessness.

He lowered his head to glance at his 'brand new' Physical Body and curled his lip, saying, "Here we go again, having to start over from scratch."

Several years ago, Lou Lanhe took a fancy to the 'Alien Blood' Evolution Path and purchased a large amount of precious starry sky behemoth essence blood to Cultivate with.

The 'Alien Blood' Evolution Path could accommodate the Bloodlines of numerous behemoths, eventually fusing them into one body. When cultivated to the extreme, one could easily transform into all the starry sky alien beasts and Vicious Beasts one had ever come into contact with.

This Evolution Path was exceptionally powerful, especially in the early stages.

Of course, there were also risks. Repulsion existed between the essence bloods of different Vicious Beasts. Once there was the slightest lapse in attention, it would directly lead to the outcome of exploding to death.

Lou Lanhe had died precisely because of this method.

However, Lou Lanhe constantly synchronized his consciousness to the cloud, and coupled with his early preparations, he had replicated a Physical Body from before he started cultivating.

After exploding to death, his consciousness transferred into that Physical Body, perfectly averting a true death.

Although he survived, the price was also enormous. First of all, all the investments made when cultivating the 'Alien Blood' Evolution Path went down the drain.

Of course, Lou Lanhe didn't care about these; his father held a high position, and money was the one thing he had plenty of.

It was just that time had been wasted.

"Xiaohe, this time when choosing the scope of the Evolution Path, filter out those that rely on external objects and external forces."

A gentle female voice reached his ears.

Lou Lanhe knew that this was his mother reminding him.

"Alright."

Lou Lanhe sighed.

He wasn't suited to follow his parents' Evolution Paths.

Therefore, he could only pick a suitable one among other Evolution Paths.

However, after trying more than ten times consecutively, every time he cultivated halfway through, he would die.

"I'll just pick one randomly this time."

Lou Lanhe was somewhat self暴自弃 (self-abandoning), but he still followed his mother's instructions and skipped those Evolution Paths that relied on external forces and external objects.

Lou Lanhe browsed casually.

"Eh? The potential of this Evolution Path actually reaches Tier 6?"

Lou Lanhe's gaze suddenly paused as he looked toward an Evolution Path named 'Martial Dao'.

"Currently, only the Rank 1 Chapter and Rank 2 Chapter have been published, and even so, its theoretical potential reaches Tier 6?"

Lou Lanhe's gaze was filled with astonishment.

For a Tier 5 Evolution Path, its theoretical potential reaching Tier 6 was nothing strange.

After all, the two were not far apart.

However, for a Tier 4 Evolution Path to have its theoretical potential reach Tier 6 was somewhat baffling.

And the 'Martial Dao' Evolution Path that Lou Lanhe was looking at only had the Rank 1 Chapter and Rank 2 Chapter, yet its theoretical potential already reached Tier 6.

This made Lou Lanhe even more astonished.

"Father said that the Goddess of Wisdom never lies."

"Let's check out this Evolution Path."

Lou Lanhe casually purchased both the Rank 1 Chapter and Rank 2 Chapter of the Martial Dao Evolution Path.

Then, he began to read carefully.

"Hmm… hmm…"

Lou Lanhe's expression grew heavy.

He couldn't understand it.

"Let me ask the founder of this Evolution Path to give me some guidance."

After pondering for a while, Lou Lanhe felt that the Martial Dao Evolution Path somewhat suited him, so he offered a reward to have its founder give him some guidance.

"Let's make it one hundred million."

Lou Lanhe thought of a figure.

To be able to guide him, Lou Lanhe, the price definitely couldn't be low.

One hundred million was about right.

"This founder is called 'Yuan'?"

Lou Lanhe checked the detailed information of the Martial Dao Evolution Path and directly sent his request along with the reward via a direct message.

Shuiyue Community.

Lin Yuan was browsing his direct messages.

Right at this moment, a new direct message was sent over.

"I, Lou Lanhe, wish to obtain guidance regarding the Martial Dao Evolution Path and am willing to pay one hundred million civilization coins for it."

"How much?"

Lin Yuan looked at it again.

One hundred million civilization coins?

Lin Yuan blinked his eyes.

He could also pull out one hundred million civilization coins.

For other ranked Evolvers, if they gritted their teeth and cobbled things together, they could also pull out this much money.

However…

This one hundred million civilization coins was merely used to request his guidance for one hour.

This was somewhat extravagant.

"Agreed."

Lin Yuan immediately chose to agree.

Why not accept money that was delivered for free?

Just as Lin Yuan chose to agree, the Virtual World sent out another application.

[Lou Lanhe invites you to go to his personal space. Do you agree?]

"Agreed."

Lin Yuan agreed once more.

Out of caution, before going, Lin Yuan adjusted his appearance slightly.

The next moment, the surrounding space shifted.

Lin Yuan arrived at a spacious golden grand hall.

On the throne in the center of the grand hall sat a figure draped in purple robes.

This figure was only one and a half meters tall, and his forehead was covered with mysterious patterns.

Seeing Lin Yuan appear, Lou Lanhe immediately walked down.

Then, he bowed slightly toward Lin Yuan and said, "Greetings, Teacher 'Yuan'."
