Chapter 6999 Everyone has his own ambitions
The biggest difference between willpower and physical qualities is that physical qualities can last a long time; a well-trained body can maintain that foundation for a long time, but willpower can decline.

You can't predict when willpower will crumble, or when a single sentence can set it on fire to its limit. Therefore, the gap between the upper and lower limits of willpower-based talents and elites who follow a pure willpower path is enormous!
It can be said that if one cannot reach the level of breaking through the limits of normal will, everyone's will can be assumed to be at the same level, and the difference lies only in the degree of fluctuation!

The problem is that there are only about a hundred people in this world whose will can break through the limits of normalcy!
Conversely, there are too many who can break through the limits of willpower, but they only touch upon it superficially amidst ups and downs. It only has certain significance for a certain period of time, allowing people to unleash stronger combat power than before.

However, the true significance of breaking through the limits of willpower for talent and strength cannot be demonstrated in such a short period of time, and with the possibility of a decline, its significance is even smaller.

After all, the ability to break through the limits of normal willpower, not counting the super-powerful boost from one's own willpower, is enough to allow any veteran with the ability to break through the limits of normal willpower to quickly reach the level of a god.

The utterly unreasonable way of using talent, the heaven-defying operations that completely defy the requirements of control, the violent reorganization of finishing moves, etc., are all the specialties of breaking the limits of normal will.

Wang Mao had told Lan Fang before that there was no point in practicing power integration. True strong people use violent integration and control. This violent integration and control process is also the process of you becoming familiar with and mastering your talent. So the question is, why is power integration still the mainstream talent common to the three great empires?

To put it bluntly, it's just a more advanced version of that thing that normal people simply can't make!

And this is just the limit of normal will. As for the higher level of normal will transcendence, it is even more exaggerated. Most negative talents can ignore the negative aspects of normal will transcendence, or they can withstand the negative aspects and continue to operate forcibly.

Aside from a few pure Divine Breakers, only Qi Xiu and Zhang Huang have ever stepped into this field. Other veterans who have the chance to touch this field in their entire lives, and use it once, are already considered to have achieved something worth boasting about if they survive.

That's right, people can die at this level. Generally speaking, a body that has reached the Qi Refining stage cannot restrain or control the will at this level. It is easy to hurt oneself or others when making a move. The simplest analogy is that an airplane can withstand high-G maneuvers, but a person cannot.

These are two old guys whose willpower has surpassed that of others. They can only go all out after their physical bodies have died. If their physical bodies are still alive, and they go all out, their physical bodies will explode on the spot.

Zena had a taste of the allure of a higher realm this time. Although he hadn't fully stepped into it, he had already reached the limit of breaking through the normal will and was only one step away from that realm. Therefore, he could more clearly understand the power possessed by this level. However, from the moment he stepped down, Zena realized that he might never be able to cross that one step in his lifetime.

"Are you still dizzy?" Ananda stood up, leaned on the side for support, shook his head, and looked somewhat unwell. He clearly felt dizzy and lightheaded when he stood up.

"It's still a bit, but not too serious." Zena felt completely drained when he got up, but he was in slightly better condition than Ananda.

"I feel like my mastery of talent is a bit intermittent." Anada got up, found a seat, and with the help of her Kushan teammates, drank some sugar water to recover a little. With some doubt, she asked, "What's going on? Why is my talent acting so strangely?"

Within the small world, Zhang Yong was in high spirits, ready to continue pushing forward his path of oath and crush his opponents. After all, following the previous great battle, Zhang Yong had a clearer understanding of his own strength. No problem, his current strength was enough to "single-hand" those bug-level teams.

"Uh, Zhang Er, why are you going this way? Didn't we throw away half a brick before? Are you sure we're going this way?" Zhang Ping asked, somewhat puzzled, as Zhang Yong deviated from the plan.

"Do we still need to go that way?" Zhang Yong said in a somewhat lazy tone. "Go this way. There are a lot of points here, and we can also get the equipment I want."

"Huh?" Zhang Ping was stunned for a moment, stopped in his tracks, and looked at Zhang Yong with a strange expression on his horse-like face.

“I’m the one who runs the Dark Fighting Game,” Zhang Yong said with a sneer. “Besides, I know I stole Hou Zhong’s talent. So what? After crippling Anada and Zena, what’s wrong with me picking up some of their loot?”

God's knowledge is really useful!

And Zena is truly garbage, a bunch of useless talents, relying entirely on skill. I picked and chose the Light and Shadow skill, so I'll just make do with it!
Upon hearing this, Slavnis was terrified, and Zhang Yong's words suddenly echoed in his mind: "Your Incineration and Sacrifice are really useful!"

Zhang Ping also fell silent. He suddenly remembered Zhang Yong kicking out his will body and then his own performance when he used the Nine-Step Strikes to pierce through the Sky Spear in actual combat. Damn it, I was just trying to figure out your Miracle Transformation, and you've already become interested in my talent structure. Dude, you've gone too far!
In the Myriad God Palace, Zena's expression turned quite unpleasant. With his normal willpower exceeding its limits, this mental injury should have been mostly recovered after a short rest. However, after drinking a few cups of sugar water, Zena discovered that his most proficient talent for manipulating light and shadow was actually somewhat sluggish.

Although the talent for manipulating light and shadow is not Zena's core talent, because he often needs to obtain images from others to create 3D images, Zena's light and shadow manipulation skills are well-known worldwide. As a result, his world ranking has plummeted by a thousand places in the current situation.

Zena was shocked and instantly understood what had happened. Damn it, we were only after your interest, Zhang Yong, but you bastard directly stole my principal!
"Annada, how's your recovery going?" Zena quickly looked up at Anna. "What's the status of your refined elite talent now?"

Ananda was stunned for a moment, then instantly realized what was happening. His face turned green. He knew perfectly well that his divine power couldn't be activated. Damn it! Zhang Yong, you big beast!
"It's over! It's all over!" Zena lay back in the chair, not wanting to say a word.

“We are, after all, forged in the seventh stage of the Forging Realm. With some time, we can still take it back. As for the Miracle Suppression, given our situation, he can only suppress one of us,” Ananda said with a sigh.

“I know, but guess who he’ll choose to suppress?” Zena said, half-lying down.

Nonsense. With the Sevenfold Refining talent that was miraculously taken away, if the opponent does not resist, like in the previous Dark Fight where everyone had wins and losses and was learning from each other, then of course it can be used indefinitely. But if the opponent does not agree and fights desperately, then even Zhang Yong can only suppress one Sevenfold Refining talent for his own use.

In this situation, it goes without saying who Zhang Yong would suppress—Zena, of course. So, after Zena figured it out, he simply slumped into his chair.

"Uh, what you said does make sense." Ananda wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Indeed, compared to himself, Zena was more difficult to deal with. If it came to suppressing someone, it would be Zena. It seemed he had successfully dodged a bullet. Not bad, not bad!
"Let's go, this way!" Zhang Yong said excitedly, pointing south. Zena's super-wide-range light and shadow detection ability allowed Zhang Yong to directly find a group of Roman veterans chasing Huang Tao. Without hesitation, he killed them all and turned Huang Tao into a whirlwind! The speed problem was solved immediately.

As for whether Huang Tao is willing or not, after all, this is an opportunity to experience miracles. If given a way out, he will most likely agree. At most, he might not accept becoming a wind-fire wheel, but rather a pair of wings. This is not a big problem and will not have much impact!
After all, this is the only opportunity for these top-tier geniuses to experience the miracle themselves. This is why Zhang Yong is confident in turning Sun Er into his own Celestial Armament. Having sparred with Sun Er so many times, Zhang Yong knows very well that Sun Er is extremely envious of his own miracle transformation. It would be strange if he wasn't!

Therefore, given such an opportunity, as long as there is a step up, this group of people will still accept it to some extent.

As for the idea that this group of people have truly learned how to create miracles, well, let's not even talk about whether they can do it or not. Even if they could, what would Zhang Yong lose?
Zhang Yong really liked this approach of strengthening his own side's combat power. If he were to keep something to himself just because others could learn it, he wouldn't be able to reach that level. At this level, confidence and awareness are both indispensable. Moreover, only when everyone is stronger can an even stronger path be developed! This is something that Zhang Yong, a wild man from Liangzhou, has always believed in!

Three years ago, Zhang Yong realized that relying solely on himself, he could only achieve the ultimate seven-fold superposition and single-target miracle on the path of smelting. Moreover, it was very likely that this was the limit that humanity could reach under the influence of the celestial changes and the curse of the world's consciousness. But for Zhang Yong, this limit was within his grasp!
Even if he doesn't follow the path of oaths and just slacks off like this, it will take Zhang Yong three or four years, or five or six years, to reach the seventh level of forging. At that time, Sun Er, who cannot achieve the eighth level of forging, will be completely unable to keep up with Zhang Yong's pace. Or to put it more directly, at that time, Zhang Yong will have reached the end of the path of forging.

According to Zhang Yong's current assessment, the sevenfold forging plus the miracle transformation is not enough to break through the boundary. In other words, within the scope of humanity, the path that has been taken by the most people and has the most reasonable consumption cannot compare to the upper limit of martial arts that can only be achieved by accumulating resources!
Even without any class consciousness or aspiration to bring peace to the world, Zhang Yong, a pure and simple savage from Xiliang, after traveling all over Eurasia and Africa and seeing many things, and after integrating the knowledge taught by his wife, also knew how difficult it was for them, these country bumpkins, to turn their lives around!

After a deep conversation with his wife, Zhang Yong realized how much luck and opportunity he had taken to get to where he was today, and he also understood the resources and background of those powerful families. More directly, he realized that he should not have been able to turn his life around, and should have died in the tide of the times during the process of turning his life around.

However, he survived, whether by chance, luck, or Liu Bei and Chen Xi. In any case, he survived and lived to the very end of a certain path.

Indeed, in terms of skill level, Zhang Yong is slightly higher than Sun Er. However, in terms of combat strength, Zhang Yong, being from Xiliang, is used to a head-on fighting style, which makes his combat awareness slightly weaker. Therefore, when facing Sun Er, his win rate is slightly lower.

In other words, in the eyes of others, Zhang Yong and Sun Er are on the same level, but Zhang Yong knows very well that his current win rate against Sun Er is not as good as his opponent's. But what about next? It's only a matter of time before Zhang Yong reaches the seventh level, while whether Sun Er's eighth level even exists is still a question.

This is really bad; we've reached the end of the road.

Having witnessed Kusroy use his wisdom to piece together a path for Dalit, Zhang Yong inevitably had the same thought when he realized that the journey was coming to an end.

After all, for ordinary people in the Han Dynasty, the easiest path to take is not martial arts, but smelting. The former can be mastered quickly, but it requires resources. Even Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun were born into landlord families, while most ordinary families in the world could not become landlords.

Therefore, the smelting route, which doesn't consume resources, takes a lot of time, requires qualifications, but doesn't demand too much, is the real path for ordinary people to improve themselves.

But at the end of this road, Zhang Yong had already seen his future self, a powerful figure comparable to someone who had broken through boundaries, but in reality, only at the level of Hua Xiong.

Is it strong? Yes, it is very strong. But if the path taken by more than 90% of the population has such a ceiling, then it is too ridiculous. For Zhang Yong, the end of the path of smelting requires at least one person who can kill a being who has broken through the boundary with a mortal body, that is, a body that has been refined into Qi.

Only when such a veteran emerges can this path truly take shape.

Even if this veteran had such resources and such luck in the process, it didn't matter, as long as he could do this. The problem was that he couldn't do it. Zhang Yong clearly realized that even if he reached the seventh level, he couldn't do it. If the opponent couldn't win and wanted to run away, he had no way to stop them.

So Zhang Yong tried other methods, such as dark fighting games, oaths, and miraculous team reorganization. Although these operations seem unorthodox, they are all ways for Zhang Yong to try to break through the boundaries of human beings.

Zhang Yong believes that there is still room for development in the smelting process, and that it can become even stronger.

However, the people of Liangzhou are so rough in their work that even though Zhang Yong clearly wanted to do something decent, he ended up doing it like a complete scoundrel!
"May I speak to my husband?" Zongmei asked, bowing to Liu Tong as she looked at Zhang Yong's furrowed brows.

"Okay." Liu Tong nodded calmly, then used Chen Xi's voice transmission channel to have Zong Mei hang up on Zhang Yong.

"Husband." Zongmei transmitted her voice to Zhang Yong, who was stunned for a moment when he received the voice.

"Uh, what brings you here?" Zhang Yong asked, stopping his horse.

"Is that horse Zhang Sange's?" Zongmei asked cautiously, and Zhang Yong nodded with a dry laugh.

"Is my husband trying to break the limits?" Zongmei asked very seriously.

"You're the one who told me all this, although I still don't really understand it!" Zhang Yong pondered for a moment before giving his answer.

"I can say that when I said that before, I was just mentioning it casually; I never really thought you would do it," Zongmei sighed. "Husband, why do you want to do this?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because I was eating too much sand and dust when I was a kid." Zhang Yong said this with a hint of lightness and casualness. He really didn't know why he had to tear the upper limit of smelting, so that those who walked this path to the limit could kill those who broke through the boundary. His theoretical knowledge was simply not enough to support why he wanted to do it, but it didn't matter. Liangzhou Mad Dog, if he wanted to do it, he would do it!
“You are already a Marquis within the Passes,” Zongmei said with a sigh.

"Oh." Zhang Yong stopped his horse quietly in place.

"You don't even know why you're doing this," Zongmei said, sounding somewhat weary.

"Oh." Zhang Yong didn't refute it. He really wasn't sure, but he felt that this was the right thing to do!

"Even if we succeed, there will be no benefit," Zong Mei said very seriously. She wouldn't leave her name in the world because if she succeeded, there would be more than just Zhang Yong.

"It was just a spur-of-the-moment decision; I thought it was a good idea," Zhang Yong said earnestly. He didn't expect anything from it; he just realized the power of resources and background, as well as the suppression that knowledge and information exert on ordinary people, from the knowledge his sister had shared with him. That's why he wanted to do this.

I don't seek fame or fortune, because I already have them; all I want is to enjoy myself!

"Anyway, there's no real danger. At most, I'll be chased and hacked by those people, but they won't really kill me. It'll just be a bit embarrassing, but I'm not afraid," Zhang Yong said nonchalantly. He'd eaten shit and crawled out of piles of corpses; he really didn't care about saving face.

"Then be careful, I'm watching you from up here. Remember to win." Zongmei knew that Zhang Yong, who hadn't even figured out the theory, was already engrossed in his work and didn't want to get entangled with him. She gave him a few more words of advice and then ended the communication.

"Win the championship?" After Zongmei cut off the communication, Zhang Yong turned his head and looked at the sky. Don't worry, just watch how I win the championship.

After Zongmei disconnected, she returned to her seat to eat sunflower seeds with Yu Yan, only to find Yu Yan propping her head up and thinking about what exactly happened between Zhang Yong and Zhang Ping.

On the other side, Chen Xi and Liu Tong, who had overheard Zong Mei and Zhang Yong's conversation, exchanged a glance and both saw something in each other's eyes.

"It's rare to see Zhang Yong with such awareness." Liu Tong said to Chen Xi with a smile. After watching the battle between the Princess Guard and the Trinity Zhang Yong, Liu Tong remained calm despite the defeat of the two generals of the Princess Guard.

"He has no awareness whatsoever. He has no theory in his head. His subconscious just made him realize that he shouldn't do this. Then he traveled around the world, broadened his horizons, and then some ideas came to him. He doesn't even know if they are right or wrong. He just relies on his intuition to figure out that they are right, and then he started doing it. He's just like a typical Liangzhou person!" Chen Xi said irritably, then glanced at Li You out of the corner of his eye.

Well, Li You used to be like that too. At most, he had a rough, seemingly okay theory in his head, but he didn't bother to refine it before he just started doing things with it. Chen Xi was impressed.

"I get the feeling that you're not quite satisfied with this," Liu Tong said with a light laugh.

“Because of the lack of theory, mistakes will inevitably occur during the process. There may even be situations where the idea is good and the feeling is good, but in the end, it will lead to a big mess. To put it simply, if Zhang Yong continues like this, he will definitely run into big trouble.” Chen Xi sighed and said, “It is good that he wants to raise the upper limit of smelting and leave a possibility for others, but he does not actually know what he is doing, nor does he know the true meaning of doing this.”

"So what are your thoughts?" Liu Tong asked curiously.

"We'll require those of noble rank and above to pursue further education and strengthen their learning. Their limited knowledge simply cannot support their behavior and thoughts," Chen Xi transmitted to Liu Tong with a hint of annoyance. "It's also a good way to preemptively eliminate certain things that are bound to appear in the future."

Upon hearing this, Liu Tong blinked, then realized that Chen Xi was referring to the management issues after the war ended, and that there were some lessons that needed to be learned.

"At least his initial intentions were good." Liu Tong looked at Zhang Yong and gave a neutral assessment.

"I didn't say there was a problem with the original intention, but the path of smelting does indeed need very meticulous optimization and strengthening. After all, this seemingly ancient path has only just become mainstream." Chen Xi glanced at Zhang Yong, who had already begun to bombard Roman veterans with his spiral spear.

"Hahaha, let's go, everyone!" Zhang Yong, riding Nightmare, threw a full-power crimson-gold spear from the sky, covering Huang Tao in its attack range.

"Holy crap, Zhang Yong, are you crazy?" Huang Tao, who was injured, turned green when he saw the thing falling from the sky. He was a fragile guy, and if he got caught in it, he would be killed on the spot. You have to know that Huang Tao doesn't have any substitute clones now. They have all been crushed by Actaeon and his group of Roman minions.

"What is this?" Akteon, who was a little further away, looked at Zhang Yong who suddenly appeared in the sky. Before he could make a move, he sensed an extreme sense of danger. He reflexively drew his bow, and a streak of light shot straight into the fully-powered javelin.

The two collided more than 300 meters above the ground. Aktean's special arrow pierced through the shockwave and detonated the spear thrown by Zhang Yong.

A burst of light with a gap in the lower half formed directly in the sky. The overflowing power even swept Zhang Yong, who was unprepared, away. On the contrary, the Romans who were just walking around below only encountered a little bit of wind.

As for Huang Tao, upon seeing Aktaion appear, he ran away without a second thought.

Those with votes, please cast your votes! Sigh, another year has passed, and we're still just a little short of reaching 3000 "cute" ratings.
