460. Beyond Martial Gods, Shattering the Void!
"The difference between a Martial God and a Great Martial God is just one factor: the ability to shatter the void," Lin Fei reflected. "If one can shatter the void, it signifies reaching the level of a Great Martial God. Otherwise, one is not."
Lin Fei diligently gathered information and insights about the cultivation path beyond Martial Gods. He even compared it with the path of immortality. For instance, Deity Transformation cultivators on the path of immortality need to comprehend the mysteries of the void to advance to the stage of Void Transformation, where they can integrate into and traverse the void at will. A Void Transformation cultivator, capable of creating countless incarnations, can be as formidable as millions of Deity Transformation cultivators. Quantity becomes meaningless at such a level.
However, unlike immortals who must comprehend the elusive mysteries of the void, Martial Gods focus on continuously increasing their power. When their strength reaches a level capable of shattering the void, they attain the status of Great Martial Gods, comparable to Void Transformation.
Lin Fei preferred the martial path for its simplicity and directness – where strength reigns supreme. He believed in the principle of "one force breaking all methods," where no matter what secrets the void holds, they can be overcome with sheer force. But how to increase the power of a Martial God?
The answer lies in laws.
Martial Gods don't need to comprehend laws; they need to strengthen them. And how is this done? The answer is plundering. This doesn't mean plundering laws from individuals, as there are limited Martial Gods or Deity Transformation beings in the entire Ancient Continent. Instead, it refers to plundering from nature itself – seizing the essence of heaven and earth, which embodies laws.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com
Lin Fei looked up, always aware of the immense Sea of Origin in the void, containing both Origin and Laws. Origin and Laws are distinct – Lin Fei has comprehended a strand of law, while the residual power in his body is from the Origin.
At his current level, Lin Fei cannot yet touch the power of Origin, so he must cultivate laws by capturing them from the Sea of Origin. Each capture brings a "heavenly tribulation" or "thunder tribulation," a test of one's strength and resolve in the face of cosmic powers.
"For when the Thunder Lord brings destruction, those who withstand it gain the law. Those who cannot, turn to ash. There is no chance for luck. Only by surviving nine thunder tribulations can one possibly reach the realm of shattering the void.
How many particles does a person have? Four hundred and eighty million? Lin Fei didn't know, but he was aware of the countless particles in the body. If he could turn each particle into a micro-world, the final achievement would be unimaginable. Not just shattering the void, but even becoming the progenitor of martial arts was not out of reach!
"Could this be considered my own unique path?" Lin Fei pondered, inspired. A thought struck him: Martial Gods could actually pass down their own doctrines, the true doctrines that directly point to the laws of the cosmos! Lin Fei's law was the world's law. By crafting his physical particles into worlds, it aligned perfectly with his law, even complementing it. Thus, this could also be considered Lin Fei's path.
Of course, this was just a preliminary concept. Creating a microcosm was difficult. Lin Fei had no clear idea how to start, let alone base it on his physical particles to create numerous micro-worlds. This was an even greater challenge. However, Lin Fei had plenty of time. He could ponder it slowly. Perfecting any doctrine takes a long time.
As time passed, a month went by.
On a sunny day, Feng Ling emerged from seclusion. Lin Fei immediately stopped his practice and stepped out of the secret chamber, his expression solemn as he fixed his gaze on Feng Ling and asked gravely, "Feng Ling, are you confident?"
This step was crucial. Even Lin Fei, who had gone through it, felt there was a bit of luck involved. Hence, whether Feng Ling could successfully attain enlightenment was uncertain to him. Lin Fei was even somewhat worried.
Feng Ling, however, was carefree and smiled slightly, "Who dares to say they are certain of enlightenment? If one does not attain the Dao, who knows if it's truly their path? But regardless of whether I attain it or not, I firmly believe this is the path I must take!"
In the next moment, the nine bloodlines within Feng Ling fused together as one.
Feng Ling began the process of enlightenment!
