Chapter 6 Freshmen
Chapter 6 Freshmen
"So sudden? I'm not ready at all!"
Instantly, Gu Yun froze on the spot.
An invisible force enveloped him.
Steam began to rise continuously from his entire body.
The veins that were originally hidden under fair skin now seemed to be stained with ink, their lines eerie and terrifying.
He felt his heart beating faster and faster under this force.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Each throb brought a tearing, excruciating pain.
However, he remained silent.
Because along with the pain came an indescribable, strange sensation.
This feeling is as if it were innate.
But he was certain that this was the power of authority.
His body is being reorganized, adapted, and mastered.
This also made him realize.
It's not just him who's trying.
He is grafting His entirety onto Himself.
He had never craved power so much.
That feeling of powerlessness.
He didn't want to experience it again.
If pain alone can be exchanged for strength.
So, the pain now.
not enough!
......
With waves of pain and a racing heartbeat.
Gradually.
He found that he couldn't keep up with his breathing.
The scene before my eyes is distorted.
A wave of dizziness from lack of oxygen rushed to my head.
呲.
A sweet taste in my mouth.
Gu Yun bit her tongue to maintain a brief moment of consciousness.
He immediately closed his eyes.
Feel your body fully in the present moment.
If your mouth and nose aren't enough, then enlarge the pores all over your body to keep up with the frenzied rhythm of your heartbeat.
Him now.
The body now.
It's possible!
......
Time passed second by second.
Dark clouds loomed over the window.
Lightning...
It has never made a sound.
The rules from another dimension seemed to be suppressed.
They can only bluff to show their anger.
It's like a mindless little zombie on TV banging on tempered glass.
If Gu Yun saw this at that moment.
I will definitely say it.
Haha, just impotent rage.
Great, needless to say.
Destiny is in my hands.
......
White smoke billowed from inside the room.
Almost every corner of the rented room was covered with condensed dew.
I don’t know when.
The white smoke began to shrink rapidly.
Eventually, they converged to form a vertical, oval-shaped white cocoon.
Like a silkworm transforming into a butterfly.
However, if someone stands in front of the white cocoon, they will inevitably have doubts.
After all, the cocoon from which a silkworm transforms into a butterfly does not have those unsettling black patterns.
These patterns are not attached to the white cocoon.
Rather, the white cocoon cannot conceal the black light emitted by the creatures within.
Thus, it penetrates the white cocoon and projects onto it.
If you look closely...
It's not hard to see that these black lines are not static.
Instead, it surges rhythmically.
Like the blood vessels in the human body.
One.
Shrink.
......
The white cocoon stood upright for two or three hours.
The sky outside the window has cleared up again.
It was just like the dark clouds and lightning from before.
It was just a dream.
A colorful butterfly slowly flew in through the window.
I stood on the white cocoon.
It gently flapped its wings.
It was as if it was calling out to someone.
"Click, click"
The white cocoon began to crack outwards from where the black lines disappeared.
The butterfly seemed to sense danger.
It hurriedly flapped its wings and flew away.
Unfortunately, the space is too small.
Just as it was about to crash into the wall covered in dew.
An outstretched hand appeared from the sky.
Encircle it.
Getting water droplets on those thin, flake-like butterfly wings is not a good thing.
A man in a black trench coat slowly emerged from beneath the ruptured white cocoon.
His skin was no longer as white as snow; it seemed to have been tinged with a shadow.
But this does not obscure its powerful inner strength.
His blood-red eyes were now filled with golden arcs of electricity.
It seems to be able to see through the soul of everything.
The man slowly walked towards the window.
Spread your five fingers.
Colorful butterflies suddenly floated out.
It danced before the man's eyes for a moment before flying away into the distance.
It seemed to be an expression of gratitude.
The man was Gu Yun, who had emerged from his cocoon and been reborn.
......
"Is this what a high-ranking body is like? I can definitely feel the difference."
Gu Yun clenched his fists.
Tension your whole body.
It was as if I was feeling the power of this body.
"That's natural, this is a pseudo-innate body."
"A naturally born body? A fake?"
"That's right. Just like how the existence of the Gamma Dimension suppresses life levels from going to the Alpha Dimension, the two are interconnected. Theoretically, beings in the Alpha Dimension can go to the Gamma Dimension by cultivating and improving their life levels."
"Can the status of life be elevated?"
"Yes, it seems that the beings in the Alpha Dimension divide life status into nine ranks: ranks one to three are mortal bodies, ranks four to six are overlord bodies, ranks seven to nine are holy bodies, and in the legends of the Alpha Dimension, breaking through to the ninth rank of holy body will be accepted by the Gamma Dimension."
"So after the ninth rank comes the innate body?"
"Yes, according to their legends, that should be the case, because the innate body is the lowest level that can be accepted by the gamma dimension, but if they do not master the use of soul matter, even if they are accepted, they will fall into a permanent slumber."
"Because in the gamma realm, the soul's status is too low. Only the soul matter it forms can exist here. If they do not use the means of soul matter, then the moment the soul comes into contact with the gamma dimension, it will turn into soul matter and disperse in all directions, eventually falling into a deep sleep."
Gu Yun seemed to have thought of something and raised his question.
"Their memories, now devoid of souls?"
"If it is a naturally born body, then there is no need for the soul to serve as a medium for memories."
"This is truly amazing. What lies beyond the Innate Realm? And what does my Pseudo-Innate Realm mean?"
"The pseudo-innate state means that our fusion is incomplete, and the suppression from your Earth is too strong. Although you are currently a pseudo-innate, in comparison, you are at most at the level of a third-order mortal body under the suppression of Earth's rules."
"Once the Gamma Dimension naturally finishes up the remaining unfinished integration, your body will also advance to the Innate level."
"Wait, the body can also be suppressed and degenerate?"
The advisor was puzzled.
According to the novel, shouldn't the body remain unchanged in places where cultivation is restricted?
Otherwise, how would the protagonist show off?
"I understand your question, but this is not a world of immortals and heroes. Although the improvement of your life rank will further strengthen your body, this is not the standard for measuring life rank. In other words, it does not mean that your life rank will improve as you continuously enhance your physical fitness."
"Otherwise, you humans will never be able to defeat the dragons."
"The standard for measuring one's life level is the Qi that your entire body condenses into. This Qi is distributed throughout every corner of your body and will assist you in various functions such as attack, defense, and recovery."
"As for the improvement of Qi, it seems to be related to the spirit. Daily physical exercise, taking various rare treasures, and tempering oneself between life and death will improve one's spirit. Each time a critical value is broken, the Qi will be raised to a higher level."
"The first to third tiers are generally similar in color to the soul, appearing white. After breaking through to the fourth tier, they turn light red, and after breaking through to the sixth tier, they become completely red. Finally, the higher the life rank, the closer it is to blood color."
"After breaking through the innate level, the color of one's Qi will vary from person to person."
"However, the power of breath becomes somewhat useless at the gamma level. To explain it in the terms of the fantasy novels you read, everyone has already started using supernatural powers and immortal techniques to fight. Are you still planning to charge into battle like a primitive man?"
Gu Yun was not convinced!
The Ancient Sacred Body is not convinced!
Achieving physical sainthood, one force can break through all laws!
Werner seemed to hear Gu Yun's thoughts.
"Of course, unless you can raise your Qi to a higher level like the Asura clan, who call this power 'battle Qi,' which is how the Asura clan subdues demons and gods."
"Let me make this clear first, I don't understand it, and I don't know how to do it. I only know that there is a higher form of qi called battle qi."
Gu Yun looked disgusted.
What's the use of you?
"Going back to your initial question, above the innate is the innate body. Demons have demon bodies, gods have divine bodies, and Asuras have Asura bodies. I don't know about anything above that."
"Ok?"
Gu Yun seemed to have discovered a blind spot.
"So, your innate physical body is something you were born with?"
"Ah."
"Aren't newborn babies also born with a special constitution?"
"Emmmm....Yeah, I guess."
Werner seemed to know what Gu Yun was about to say.
The shadow gradually shrinks.
By the way.
After the two are integrated and grafted together.
Werner became Gu Yun's shadow.
They established a symbiotic relationship with Gu Yun.
From then on, he no longer needed soul matter to sustain his life.
The fusion of contractual rules, which positions Him as a shadow, is also closely related to His race.
He was even prepared for the worst, becoming a consciousness residing within Gu Yun's soul.
Even as a shadow, He retained some of the basic racial abilities.
It can also be removed from the body for a short time, which is quite free.
In that case, it seems He could provide some support during battle?
"If beings from your gamma dimension were to actually descend into the alpha dimension, wouldn't that be a dimensional reduction attack?"
Werner was taken aback.
He seemed surprised that Gu Yun did not mock him.
The shadow gradually returned to normal.
"No, at least not for now, because the Alpha Dimension cannot accept innate bodies. So at most, one can only suppress one's life level to the ninth rank. In fact, most people who go to the Alpha Dimension will suppress their clones to the eighth rank, because the ninth rank is too unstable. If one does not know how to control oneself during a battle and uses the power of the innate level, one will be kicked out of the Alpha Dimension."
"It's not worth it, we're not going there to fight anyway."
Gu Yun rested her chin on her hand.
"That's true. Then what about the idea that the soul could cultivate before?"
"I don't know the specifics of how to cultivate. We demons don't have souls, but I roughly understand that the purpose of soul cultivation for beings in the Alpha Dimension is to increase the concentration of soul matter within their souls, thereby generating a new power called soul power. This power is more powerful in combat than that of those who have not obtained it, and soul power is a kind of existence permitted by the Alpha Dimension."
"But soul matter is not an option. In theory, all soul techniques released by soul power can be realized using soul matter, and are even more powerful. This is the case with the powers of demons and gods."
"I don't understand."
Gu Yun shook his head.
"...Let me think. According to your thought process, raising one's life rank means that physical training greatly increases physical attack and physical defense, and slightly increases magical defense. Cultivating the soul means that magical attack and magical defense are greatly increased, but physical defense is not increased."
"Ouch!"
Now I understand.
The thought process is clear.
Dude.
If you had said that earlier, it would have been fine.
"That soul essence?"
"Using soul essence as a basis to release soul techniques results in true damage."
"Ouch!"
Understood.
It's all clear now.
Souga.
It's so easy to understand.
As expected of me.
Werner: ......
Werner was speechless.
