Chapter 1817 [Enlightenment Function] Activated, Marquis Voban's Regret and Loki's Joy
Chapter 1817 [Enlightenment Function] Activated, Marquis Voban's Regret and Loki's Joy
Su Yunqing knew very well that her life experience was pitifully small compared to the thousands of years of hatred and struggle in the Lufa region.
The so-called empathy is nothing more than imagination from an outsider's perspective.
Those complex emotions, repeatedly tormented by time, can only be understood by Lu Fa himself, and in the end, he can only digest and reconcile them on his own, or perhaps, he can never reconcile them.
She couldn't give him direction in life, nor could she offer him solace.
But she knew that power was the foundation for achieving everything.
Meaning may fade, goals may be shattered, and hatred may become laughable, but power will not betray its wielder.
Whether Lu Fa ultimately continues to wallow in this void or finds a new goal in the future that he may never have imagined, his formidable strength remains his most solid asset.
Is he trying to break free from this nauseating cycle? Is he seeking some answer that transcends revenge, an answer he himself has yet to fully grasp? Or does he simply want the right to no longer be toyed with by fate or any joke?
Regardless of what he chooses to do in the future, or whether he does nothing at all, power will give him more options, rather than passively accepting what comes.
This isn't really a guideline; it's more like a basic form of protection.
Like sailing in the fog, even if you don't know where the other shore is, as long as you make sure your ship is sturdy enough, you can sail further and perhaps you will meet a new lighthouse.
As for whether that lighthouse exists, and what it is, that can only be left to Lufa himself and the unpredictable future.
Lufa: "Get stronger?"
Lufa: "That's absolutely true."
Seeing Su Yunqing's words, Lu Fa said in the chat group, but in reality, he himself didn't have much emotion.
After a long time, he sighed.
Su Yunqing's words were simple, direct, and even somewhat plain, but they unexpectedly pierced through his heart, which was shrouded in layers of confusion and emptiness.
Yes, meaning can crumble, goals can disappear, and hatred can become laughable, but power cannot.
Power is the most objective and faithful thing; it never betrays its master.
No matter how lost he is at this moment, he cannot remain in this state forever.
He is Lufa, the former chief of Ares, the commander of the Nether Legion, and a warrior who has experienced countless wars.
The instinct for survival was already etched into his soul.
Survival requires strength.
Where does the future lie? He doesn't know.
Is it to cling to lingering remnants of Ares? Is it to completely abandon the past and search for a new, perhaps more worthwhile, goal in the endless dimensions? Or is it simply to continue existing for the sake of "existence" itself?
All of this is still shrouded in mystery.
But as Su Yunqing said, only by possessing absolute power can one have the power to choose when the time comes in the future, rather than being forced to accept the dictates of fate.
Whether you want to destroy or protect, conquer or simply sail freely, power is the most fundamental guarantee.
Lufa: "Thank you, group admin."
He expressed his gratitude to Su Yunqing without much embellishment, but with the solemnity of a soldier.
Becoming stronger can be a goal in itself, a goal that can sustain him until he finds his true direction.
[Ding! Group activity has reached the standard threshold.]
The group feature "Enlightenment Space" has met the unlocking requirements and can now be selectively enabled.
[Function Description: The Enlightenment Space is a unique dimension that gathers the light of wisdom from all heavens and simulates the origin of the rules of all realms. Group members can spend points to apply for opening their own Enlightenment Space.]
In the Enlightenment Space, members' comprehension will be greatly enhanced, their thinking speed will increase exponentially, and they will be able to enter a state of ultimate focus, achieving "unity of heaven and man," without any distractions.
It allows for in-depth analysis and deduction of one's own power system, martial arts insights, spell principles, rule understanding, bloodline mysteries, and even future path.
[Effect: Greatly accelerates cultivation progress, increases the probability of breaking through bottlenecks, allows glimpses into the next stage of one's own path, or provides new and higher-level insights and applications of existing abilities.]
The depth and effectiveness of comprehension are related to the points consumed, the member's own foundation, and their current level.
[Do you want to enable this feature now?]
The sudden notification sound rang clearly in the minds of every group member, and its content shocked everyone.
The chat group, which had just been filled with a somewhat heavy and confused atmosphere, was instantly ignited by this astonishing message.
The ordinary group owner: "???"
The ordinary group admin: "!!!"
An ordinary group owner: "Finally, the enlightenment function I've been waiting for for so long is activated?!"
An ordinary group owner: "Hahaha, I knew it! I knew it! It was right that I hadn't used the enhancement function much yet!"
An ordinary group owner said, "Points should be used for features where you get exactly what you pay for!"
An ordinary group owner: "Enhance the function? What's the difference between that and throwing points away?"
Upon seeing the description of the "Enlightenment Function," Su Yunqing couldn't help but burst into laughter.
She knew that chat groups must have this feature, but it just hadn't been enabled yet.
Persistence pays off, and she finally got the chat group to open.
Is it correct to use points to improve one's comprehension, enter a state of "harmony between man and nature," and accelerate one's cultivation?
Unlike "enhanced functions," which are purely gambling on luck, the probability of success is extremely low.
The Nine Sons of Qin: "Gather wisdom, simulate rules, and enhance comprehension."
The Nine Sons of Qin: "It is indeed a powerful function."
The Nine Sons of Qin: "We just don't know how the points are consumed."
Ying Ziye stared intently at the detailed description of the "Enlightenment Space" in the chat interface, his deep eyes flashing with a thoughtful expression.
He certainly didn't doubt the effectiveness of the "Enlightenment Function," but the more powerful the function, the more astonishing its consumption would inevitably be.
Furthermore, the chat group's description of the "Enlightenment Function" does not set a fixed score value. Its rate is very likely dynamically adjusted based on the user's own strength level and the depth of their understanding of the rules.
The stronger one is, the higher one's realm is, and the more profound and mysterious the path one seeks, the more points one will consume to maintain the "enlightenment state" at every moment.
He could almost see the scene of countless points disappearing like flowing water.
The key lies in whether the "gains" are worth the costs.
If it's just about improving comprehension, the effect will likely vary from person to person.
Even with the "enlightenment function," if one's own foundation is insufficient and one's accumulation is inadequate, even investing a massive amount of points may not guarantee a breakthrough, right?
Ying Zinian thought to herself with some uncertainty.
If it's just about enhancing comprehension, then if one's own foundation isn't strong enough, the process of enlightenment will get stuck after reaching a certain point. However, judging from the various functions of the chat group in the past, this "enlightenment function" may not be just about enhancing "comprehension".
His gaze returned to the description of "gathering the light of wisdom from all heavens and simulating the origin of the rules of all worlds," and a bolder and more astonishing conjecture gradually took shape in his mind.
If he wasn't mistaken, this "enlightenment function" might not only enhance the user's own comprehension, but also enable them to gain "rule perception" and "knowledge" that they had never encountered before and that were not in their foundation.
It can be directly "instilled" or "mapped" into the user's perception process in a way that can be understood and absorbed!
If that's really the case, then the common-sense situation of "insufficient accumulation" or "lack of foundation" will not cause one to get stuck in the process of enlightenment!
Because the chat group will directly fill in the "missing insights" for you, guide your thinking, and ensure that your deductions and understanding can continue in the most perfect and suitable direction for yourself!
If this is truly what he thinks, then the value of this "enlightenment ability" will far exceed his initial imagination.
Although the points consumed may be large, what you get in return is a definite and genuine increase in strength, with almost no possibility of "waste".
Every time it is started, it is inevitably accompanied by real and huge gains.
Of course, this is just speculation. The specific effects, the extent to which the "indoctrination" of insights can be achieved, and whether it is truly so miraculous can only be known through personal experience.
The oldest god-slayer: "The ability to attain enlightenment?"
The oldest god-slayer: "To think it would be activated at a time like this."
The oldest god-slayer: "If it had been a little earlier... well, I wouldn't have lost anything."
Marquis Voban’s voice carried a faint hint of regret, but it quickly dissipated.
If this function had appeared earlier, before he spent those points to strengthen his [Godslayer Rank] and many [Powers], he might have been able to integrate power more efficiently, and even glimpse deeper mysteries, saving a lot of points.
But having already invested and achieved substantial improvements, he has little regret.
Moreover, the improvement gained from using the [Enlightenment Function] may not be as significant as the improvement gained from so many enhancements.
However, Marquis Voban was indeed somewhat interested in this feature.
Although it can't compare to the "Forge of All Heavens" function that Su Yunqing often talks about, it looks pretty good. It also involves spending points to improve one's strength.
The amount of points spent determines the extent of the strength improvement, and there is no possibility of points being wasted like with the "enhancement function".
However, to achieve a significant improvement, a considerable number of points will be required.
Especially when one's own strength is sufficient.
Given Marquis Voban's current strength and the level of rules he has reached, once he begins to comprehend the Dao, the points he loses every second will likely be a considerable number.
He glanced at his remaining points, which were around 30 million.
For most group members, these points would be a huge sum, but for him, they were barely enough.
He had already planned the use of most of them, which was to find ways to improve the technological level of various countries around the world.
This concerns his future earnings and authority, and he cannot afford to lose it.
The points that he can truly use freely to try out the "enlightenment function" are not many.
Should we try it now?
The idea was rejected by the Marquis of Voban himself as soon as it arose.
It's not necessary.
Having recently undergone an unprecedented "enhancement," strengthening his [Godslayer Rank] three times and several [Powers] three or four times, his strength is currently in a period of rapid growth.
Even without the aid of this "enlightenment function," he could clearly feel his own power becoming more refined and stronger every moment, and his control and understanding of [power] was also deepening naturally.
While using the "Enlightenment Function" now might enhance the process and accelerate it, the effect may not be maximized, and the cost-effectiveness is probably not high.
On this point alone, the Marquis's thinking was extremely pragmatic.
In his view, the best time to use the "enlightenment function" is when one's own accumulation reaches a critical point and one faces a major bottleneck that is difficult to break through; or when one needs to comprehend a new and extremely profound law.
Only by investing at that time can you extract the full value of every point.
The Great King of Asgard: "Hahahaha."
The Great King of Asgard: "It is a pity for you, but a great help to me."
The Great King of Asgard: "I am still thinking about how to use the vast amount of points I have gained after I personally lead the expedition, bring all those civilizations into Asgard's territory, and acquire them to enhance my own power."
The Great King of Asgard: "I never expected this feature to appear so soon. It truly delights me."
Loki's hearty laughter seemed to penetrate the chat interface; his heart was filled with genuine, undisguised joy.
Not long ago, Marquis Voban's successful enhancement of his [Godslayer Rank] and [Power], which cost billions of points, was like a sharp thorn, deeply provoking him and bringing with it a sense of urgent threat.
He had no intention of vying for the position of the number one person after Bai Xuan, but that did not mean he wanted to be surpassed by others, let alone someone like Marquis Voban.
So after Marquis Voban temporarily surpassed him, he did not hesitate to launch his long-planned campaign, personally leading an expedition to bring all the rich civilizations of the surrounding star systems into Asgard's territory.
On one hand, it's to expand the glory of the divine realm, but the main purpose is to plunder these civilizations and gain massive amounts of points!
He needs power, he needs to quickly become stronger than that old god-slayer! And points are the cornerstone of achieving all of this.
He had been thinking about how to use his personal expedition to bring all those civilizations under Asgard's control and gain their vast points to enhance his own power.
[Enhancement Function] Although the effect is amazing, there are too many variables. It is like gambling. Relying on luck is not his style. He prefers a stable and controllable way to become stronger.
However, prior to this, apart from the "enhancement function," the chat group did not have any other function that he considered suitable for improving strength.
The emergence of the [Enlightenment Function] perfectly resolved his concern!
