Despite saying this, he understood why the freaks were hunting him. Similar to Lin Yao, who liked to slaughter the geniuses amongst the freaks, the freaks could also detect the destiny of humans.
Groomed by the country as a legion commander, Lin Yao was everyone’s hope. His destiny was naturally fairly powerful. These freaks could vaguely sense that killing Lin Yao alone would be more useful than devouring hundreds of humans. This would enable them to remove most of the restrictions in the real world and realize their twisted rules.
Under the circumstances, they naturally rushed toward Lin Yao like greedy gluttons.
Lin Yao wanted to search for freaks but knew his own limits.
Upon discovering he had continuously been attracting numerous freaks that threatened his life, he didn’t dare wander around anymore. He immediately contacted the military personnel and armed police to seek reinforcements.
This was also the reason Lin Yao had returned with an ashen face and blindfolded half an hour after going out in high spirits.
‘The source of my talents are the sacred trees. When the sacred trees become stronger, my talents and fortune will also increase… In other words, if this continues… why do I have the hunch that I will follow in the footsteps of Tang?Seng1?’
Feeling troubled, Lin Yao simply received and converted the electromagnetic signals of the computer into an image and then browsed through the interface on it.
He was browsing the situation of other geniuses.
‘I don’t believe I’m the only one being targeted. You guys are also geniuses and will definitely be hunted too…”
Lin Yao wanted to seek solace by looking at the state of other geniuses. However, his fists clenched when he read some news.
News of the deaths of geniuses on the Hidden Dragons List had appeared on the Internet.
‘They actually died.’
Lin Yao wanted to see the other geniuses’ pathetic state while being hunted, but he didn’t want them to die.
Unfortunately, the fifth spirit energy tide was a real war, not a game. Attacking the enemy boss and remaining unscathed was impossible.
More than one genius had died. What upset Lin Yao more was that after one day of rescues, the situation of the country had not improved. Instead, it had worsened.
The cities that had been attacked yesterday had not been liberated, and another 10-odd cities had been attacked by monsters today. The defenses of two cities had been broken.
Although they had not fallen completely, the two cities had suffered tens of thousands of deaths and casualties.
The tragic-looking photos of people seeking help that had been posted on the Internet made Lin Yao understand something.
‘Shanghai is the only place where beasts can no longer be found during the day. In other places, people are troubled by the shortage of manpower and not insufficient monsters. Even the satellite cities adjacent to Shanghai have been attacked by ghosts and evil spirits.’
With a sigh, Lin Yao, who had originally wanted to mock other geniuses, shut down the computer. He was in no mood for that now.
After sitting on the chair and contemplating for a long time, Lin Yao realized there was nothing he could do.
‘I am still too weak. I can’t even go out now.’
With a helpless sigh, Lin Yao no longer allowed his thoughts to run astray. Racing against time, he researched Heaven and Earth Manifestation in preparation for the upcoming mutations of the world.
‘It is only by turning the Heaven and Earth Manifestation into a gold foundation that I will be capable enough to participate in the happenings of this great era.’
Amid the crisp chirping sounds of the cicada, a night of studying soon passed.
At dawn, Lin Yao rubbed his heavy head and summarized what he had learned.
At that moment, he still could not practice Heaven and Earth Manifestation, but he had some understanding of this powerful technique.
‘Heaven and Earth Manifestation’ was classified into two types—Heaven and Earth Emulation and Heaven and Earth Phenomenon. The former was a body transformation skill. This was the ability used by Money King and Erlang?Shen1. The latter was the transformation of the primordial spirit.
‘The two are in different forms, but both were named after heaven and earth and they have one similarity—they are vast in size. Both Heaven and Earth Emulation and Heaven and Earth Phenomenon are terrifyingly huge.’
Heaven and Earth Emulation was used to transform into a figure with a body hundreds of thousands of feet tall, a head like Mount Taishan, a mountain-like waist, lightning-like eyes, a bloody mouth, and sawlike teeth, who was able to resist the 33 heavens and 18-fold hell. This was the full prowess that Heaven and Earth Emulation could achieve.
However, at the thought of these terrifying powers, Lin Yao wasn’t filled with excitement. At the moment, he had already understood why the people in the Heaven and Earth Dojo were unable to advance to the king level when cultivating this technique.
They didn’t have enough energy.
Everything in the universe was subjected to the law of conservation of energy. In order to make one’s body able to resist the 33 heavens and 18-fold hell, these seemingly endless powers needed seas and mountains of energy.
According to Lin Yao’s conjecture, the two words ‘heaven’ and ‘earth’ in these powerful techniques were referring to the vast and indomitable strength, akin to that of heaven and earth, upon cultivating to the highest level of the technique.
Their other meaning was that, in order to use this technique, one needed to have the ‘world’ backing them.
In Lin Yao’s opinion, there were only two ways to attain the ‘world’. First, by absorbing the spirit energy in the world one lived in to activate the technique. Second, by creating a small world inside one’s body.
However, the second way was not a technology that the Blue Planet could master at this stage, and the former was not that easy to achieve.
After becoming a warlord, most humans would be able to use their own vital energy to direct the spirit energy of the outside world. They seemed able to activate Heaven and Earth Manifestation.
However, Lin Yao, who had studied this subject a lot, wanted to say that this way of thinking was too naive.
The words ‘heaven’ and ‘earth’ were not as simple as they seemed, and a powerful technique was not something that could be easily unleashed.
Using the vital energy in the body of a gold warlord as a reference for ‘1’, an outstanding gold warlord could control 10 times the amount of spirit energy in the outside world. This was already considered fairly good. Even the lowest threshold required a spirit energy of 1,000.
Yes, 1,000. A gold warlord needed to use their vital energy as the seed and then direct 10 times the amount of spirit energy surrounding them before they could unleash Heaven and Earth Manifestation. This was not something that geniuses could achieve, let alone ordinary people.
‘The spirit energy directed by the Heaven and Earth Brilliant Tyrannic Punch most likely will not exceed 100 times either. It might not even exceed 80 times what one has in their body. In that case, the Heaven and Earth Brilliant Tyrannic Punch is also a king-level combat skill.’
There were very few people on the Blue Planet who could cultivate the Heaven and Earth Brilliant Tyrannic Punch, let alone Heaven and Earth Manifestation. 1,000 was already the lowest limit. It would be best to be able to direct spirit energy amounting to at least 10,000 times what one had before one could unleash the Heaven and Earth Manifestation effectively.
However, this was simply bullying.
‘Speaking of that, the Monkey King did not create a small world in his body either. He chose the path of absorbing the spirit energy in the world. However, he was transformed by an immortal stone atop the Flower-Fruit Mountain, which constituted the chief range of the Ten Islets and formed the origin of the Three Islands. He was born with psychic powers. Given his birth origin and hypostasis, he was very compatible with the spirit energy of the world. He could naturally control the endless spirit energy of the world. On the other hand, how can the ordinary folks of the Blue Planet control that much spirit energy?’
At this moment, Lin Yao also understood why Elder Wei valued him and Heaven-and-Human Oneness that much.
Under ordinary circumstances, it would be very difficult for humans to control spirit energy amounting to 1,000 times that of their own. Nevertheless, the situation was different when one was in the state of Heaven-and-Human Oneness. When one was integrated with heaven and earth, one would be able to control a much wider scope of spirit energy, and even 1,000 times would not be impossible.
‘I really want to master this powerful technique. Although this can only be used in the state of Heaven-and-Human Oneness, my Bodhi Tree has been advancing constantly, and I will be able to maintain the Heaven-and-Human Oneness state one day. Then, unleashing Heaven and Earth Manifestation will no longer be impossible!’
