#199 - Special practice
Virtual Universe, Black Dragon Mountain Island.
Near the lake of Nine Star Bay, a youth in loose training clothes sat cross-legged. In a state of spiritual emptiness, Yang Wu seemed to be transcending.
Brother Hong still calls me an anomaly, but I think Brother Yang is the real anomaly!
Beside Yang Wu, three other youths were also sitting quietly. One of them was slightly thin, faintly exuding a murderous and cold aura.
Luo Feng helplessly opened his eyes. Several times when he closed his eyes to meditate, he felt Yang Wu disappear from his sight, as if he never existed.
"Well, Third Brother is indeed an anomaly. The aura he exudes gives people a feeling of having seen through the world, as if he's about to ascend to immortality."
Lei Shen, in white robes, nodded in agreement. His saintly smile was intoxicating. "Third Brother's situation is a bit special. He's different from us. The three realms of mental cultivation that I've summarized don't apply to Third Brother."
Hong, with his short black hair, shook his head. Even after consulting ancient texts, he had never seen Yang Wu's situation. "Mental cultivation is essentially a transcendence of the mind, but Third Brother has condensed it into a state, a special state that can be entered and exited at any time."
"This state is very similar to the third realm of mind that I summarized, the endpoint of which is an infinitely empty mind that encompasses everything."
"However, one path embraces everything, while the other abandons everything."
"Third Brother, this state is very dangerous!"
Hong analyzed based on his own understanding, and his gaze towards Yang Wu couldn't help but show some worry.
"Brother Hong, don't worry, I know my limits!"
Yang Wu smiled and nodded at him. The state of spiritual emptiness is a state of abandoning all emotions in pursuit of absolute calmness and absolute rationality.
As his strength increased, this state also strengthened. Even in the event of a mental breakdown, he could maintain absolute calmness in this state.
This is a good thing, as it can play a powerful auxiliary role in combat.
But it also has risks.
Throughout the entire primal universe, whether it's the high and mighty true gods or ant-like lives, all beings possess emotional fluctuations.
However, this state of emptiness abandons all emotional fluctuations, as if he were a god who disregarded everything, forever in a state of absolute rationality.
Hmm.
Like a emotionless intelligent program.
Prolonged entry into this state would affect a person, causing them to abandon all emotions and only execute like a computer with a set goal.
The three paths of mental cultivation.
The first path: Seeing one's nature, directly pointing to the original heart.
The second path: Harmony between man and nature, the heart of a child.
The third path: An infinitely large heart that encompasses everything.
The state of spiritual emptiness is a variation of the third path of cultivation, first abandoning all emotions to encompass everything with the mindset of a creator.
Very extreme.
If successful, then naturally everyone is happy.
If it fails, then everything is lost.
Fortunately, this is just a state. As long as he doesn't reside in this state permanently, then the impact on Yang Wu will be minimal.
Yang Wu's personality and memories from his previous life made it impossible for him to only walk one path.
He could directly point to his nature, see through his original heart. As long as his bottom line wasn't touched, he wouldn't hesitate to be gentle or firm when dealing with people.
Only the third path of encompassing everything was something he couldn't do at all. Only the state of spiritual emptiness allowed him to touch upon it.
In essence, his path of mental cultivation was closer to Luo Feng's path of seeing one's nature, accounting for a full 70% of his path.
His human body stayed near the vortex of evil energy.
A wisp of consciousness entered the virtual universe, discussing mental cultivation with Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen. He also stayed in the environment of evil energy for a long time to improve his body...
Sharpening his mental state.
His Destroyer Beast clone continued to hunt with the Mosha Clan's Luo Feng. Of course, throughout the entire hunting process, traveling accounted for 99.9% of the time. The actual hunting was often very short.
Therefore, besides hunting and killing, the Destroyer Beast clone usually stayed in the Time Palace when traveling in the Mechanical Clan's spaceship.
His main consciousness gathered together, both refreshing the cooldown time and comprehending the origin laws of space, researching secret techniques.
In the long river of time, Yang Wu was constantly perfecting himself. In the blink of an eye, twenty years had passed.
In the scarlet lake, Yang Wu opened his eyes.
For twenty years, he had been enduring the transformation of his body by the evil energy, but as time went on, the effect of the evil energy's transformation became smaller and smaller.
As early as five years ago, he was able to withstand the transformation of 95 times the concentration of evil energy, stopping less than 100 meters from the core of the vortex.
However, to be more cautious, he stayed in the area with 95 times the concentration of evil energy for a full five years.
"Let's try to fuse the third one first."
Yang Wu took out a crystal clear, blood-red, beautiful triangular prism-shaped crystal. His human body had already fused two of them, failing to fuse the third one twenty years ago. Now, he would try again.
!
His palm was cut open, and the Blood Luo Crystal was placed on the wound. A wave of killing intent filled his mind, constantly impacting Yang Wu's will.
Boom!
Yang Wu directly destroyed this killing intent, and the Blood Luo Crystal in his palm began to continuously flow out blood-colored threads, merging into Yang Wu's body.
Gradually, the color of the Blood Luo Crystal became lighter and lighter, gradually becoming completely transparent. Then, the entire crystal melted into a stream of gas, merging into Yang Wu's body.
"Fusion success."
Yang Wu activated the power of the Blood Luo, and immediately, blood-red secret patterns began to appear on his naked chest, a simple but complete secret pattern.
"1 times."
His perception clarity, the power of his laws, and the level of his life gene all increased by one times as expected.
Yang Wu was in a good mood.
The power of the laws he displayed increased by one times, which was equivalent to twice his past strength.
What's more, there was the most crucial evolution of the life gene level, coupled with the talent secret technique Flame Burst, the increase in strength was not just a mere one or two times.
"It's time to enter the core of the evil energy vortex!"
The concentration of 95 times the evil energy had almost no effect on his body transformation.
Yang Wu got up and flew towards the core of the evil energy vortex, and soon arrived inside the huge vortex.
"Rumble~~"
The giant vortex, like fresh blood, was constantly rotating, causing the evil energy in the distance to roll, and the core of the vortex was like a red sun.
Resisting the increasingly strong invasion of killing intent, Yang Wu stepped into the depths of the vortex step by step, constantly approaching the core of the vortex.
~~
"Rumble~~"
An ancient and intangible aura permeated, causing Yang Wu to feel a sense of awe like an ant facing the heavens.
Yang Wu instantly abandoned the awe that arose in his heart, and at the same time stepped into the red light sphere.
Inside the red light sphere.
Twelve golden secret patterns, nearly a thousand meters long, spiraled around, the extremely complex golden secret patterns intertwined with each other, while emitting a palpitating aura.
Space Law Secret Pattern!
This was a incomplete Space Law Secret Pattern. Yang Wu had never watched the Space Law Secret Pattern so clearly.
Yang Wu quickly sat down cross-legged, wholeheartedly investing himself in comprehending the law secret patterns.
And his body, although there was no evil energy invasion here, when it was irradiated by the golden light emitted by the law secret patterns,
Every cell deep in his body was undergoing earth-shaking changes. The speed of that change in body cells was a thousand times faster than the invasion of evil energy.
