Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 55: Chapter 52 Chikun Star Domain
 

Each of the three evolutionary paths has its strengths and focuses on different aspects.

The Golem evolution path is created by studying the flesh of a starry sky alien race known as ‘Golems’.

When cultivated to the extreme, one can incarnate as a ‘Golem’.

Of course, it is a weakened version of the ‘Golem’.

The ‘Golem’ race… is a powerful alien race whose physical bodies can traverse the cosmic starry skies.

Although the ‘Golem’ race is rare, every adult ‘Golem’ is capable of contending with Sixth Rank human evolvers in strength.

Even a weakened version of a ‘Golem’ incarnated through the Golem evolution skill can be comparable to Fourth or Fifth Rank evolvers.

“Incarnating as a ‘Golem’… forget it…”

Lin Yuan pondered carefully for a while and shook his head.

It’s undeniable that the Golem evolution path has its unique insights into the transformation of the physical body.

This is also why Lin Yuan included this evolution path as one of the final three options.

However, the ultimate stage of cultivating this evolution skill requires altering one’s bodily form, which Lin Yuan found somewhat unacceptable at the moment.

It’s not that Lin Yuan finds the appearance of the Golem race unattractive… but once he starts cultivating this evolution skill, he would have to follow through to the end.

Even if Lin Yuan, with his Against-Heaven’s Understanding, were to find a way to start over, it would certainly be incredibly troublesome.

With that in mind, Lin Yuan turned to the ‘Origin Force’ evolution skill.

The Force Evolution Path is a Fifth Rank evolution skill that focuses on comprehending the ubiquitous Origin Force within the cosmic starry skies.

Origin Force is a very special energy, unlike the extreme energies of Taiyin and Taiyang alone, it can encompass everything.

This is somewhat similar to the Dao of Taiji that emerges from the fusion of Taiyin and Taiyang.

As for the final Myriad Appearances evolution path, it leans more towards the evolution of the spirit and soul.

It excels in soul attacks and can be seen as an upgraded version of the Psyche Master evolution path.

“The Force Evolution Path it is,” Lin Yuan decided in his heart.

The similarities between the Force Evolution Path and the Dao of Taiji within the Martial Dao path make this choice more beneficial for Lin Yuan.

“Beep—”

As forty million civilization currency was deducted, Lin Yuan immediately received the complete Force Evolution Path.

Unlike buying physical items,

virtual things like evolution paths can be obtained instantly.

“Tsk, it’s really expensive.”

Lin Yuan commented with some emotion.

But since it wasn’t his own money being spent, but rather the credit limit from the Central Bank, he didn’t feel the slightest bit of heartache.

“Open,” Lin Yuan’s mind moved slightly.

The icon belonging to the ‘Force Evolution Path’ immediately became blurry.

The first thing that caught his eye was a red font warning.

[This evolution path must not be disclosed to others, or else it will be subjected to the Supreme Court’s judgment]

In the Cosmic Human Alliance, any evolution path is legally protected.

Unauthorized sharing is prohibited.

Ordinary citizens have two ways to obtain an evolution path.

One is, like Lin Yuan, to directly purchase with civilization currency.

However, normal citizens usually buy the evolutionary paths piece by piece.

For example, if they are buying the Fifth Rank Force Evolution Path, they would first choose to purchase the First Rank section.

After completing the First Rank, they would go on to buy the Second Rank section.

This way, the financial burden is greatly reduced.

A complete Force Evolution Path is worth forty million, but if it’s just the First Rank section… it might be acquired for tens of thousands.

The second way is through a contract with other powers if one really doesn’t have the money.

The power would sponsor you and give you the chance to become an evolver.

If you eventually become an evolver, you must serve the power for fifty years or a hundred years.

If you don’t become an evolver in the end, it’s likely you’ll have to serve that power for most of your life.

The powers here could be official or unofficial.

Lin Yuan, having previously been included in the compulsory conscription quota, considered signing a contract with a power to become an evolver first.

However, reservists spotted by the military district seldom get poached by unofficial powers.

“I wonder how much the Martial Dao evolutionary path is selling for now…” Lin Yuan suddenly thought.

After uploading the Martial Dao evolution path, Lin Yuan set the price for the First Rank content at ten thousand civilization currency.

There was no choice, as the Martial Dao evolutionary path was just a quasi-Second Rank evolution path when Lin Yuan uploaded it.

Even with a theoretical potential of Third Rank, it still couldn’t compare with the Force Evolution Path.

Setting the price at ten thousand civilization currency was within a reasonable range.

As for the content of the Second Rank of the Martial Dao path, due to its connection with the Dao of Taiji, Lin Yuan directly set a high price of five hundred thousand.

A few days ago, Lin Yuan learned that over a thousand citizens were cultivating the Martial Dao evolution path.

If these thousand-plus people only purchased the First Rank content, then it’s sold for over ten million in total.

After the official seven-tenths share deduction, that leaves over three million.

After related taxes and fees, Lin Yuan would get roughly two million in hand.

Of course, this doesn’t rule out the possibility that a few wealthy individuals bought the complete Martial Dao evolution path outright.

“I’ll know in a few more months.”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

The revenue split for evolution paths is settled once a year in the Virtual World.

Gathering his thoughts,

Lin Yuan began to formally view the Force Evolution Path.

Before the main text of the evolution skill, there’s a section on its origins.

Cosmic Human Alliance, Moon Spirit Star.

Moon Spirit Star is a higher-grade life planet in the Chikun Star Domain.

Canglan Star also belongs to the Chikun Star Domain, but it is a middle-grade life planet.

Chikun Star Domain… possesses eight major star systems, each encompassing hundreds of billions of stars, as well as more than 120,000 life planets.

“The Origin Force of the universe is a very special energy, it’s gentle, and it’s vast…”

Lin Yuan read carefully.

At the same time.

[Your Against-Heaven’s Understanding allows you to gloss over the Force Evolution Path and arrive at an insight into the essence of Origin Force…]

As if in a trance,

Lin Yuan seemed to find himself among the cosmic starry skies.

Here, countless forms of energy existed, there was the Power of Taiyang, the Power of Taiyin, and more so, the Origin Force…

Lin Yuan could feel the affinity the Origin Force had for him; he even attempted to control this gentle power.

He didn’t know how much time had passed.

Suddenly, Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

“What’s this?”

Lin Yuan looked down at his hands.

He saw that at some point, a layer of grime had appeared on the surface of his skin.

“Have I completed the Origin Force Body Refining?”

Lin Yuan quickly realized.

Body Refining with Origin Force is one of the signs of great proficiency in controlling the Origin Force within the Force Evolution Path.

One engages the omnipresent Origin Force of the cosmic starry sky to refine the body.

“How much time has passed?”

Lin Yuan glanced at the time.

“Eight hours.”

A shock went through Lin Yuan’s heart.

He had been immersed in cultivation for such a long time.

If other Evolvers who were practicing the Evolution Skill of Origin Force knew that Lin Yuan merely took eight hours,

to reach great proficiency in controlling Origin Force and had completed Origin Force Body Refining, they would probably feel suicidal.

In the practice of Origin Force Evolution Skill, the hardest step is to perceive the existence of Origin Force.

Just this aspect alone usually requires several years for ordinary Evolvers to experience and feel.

As for quickly advancing to great proficiency in Origin Force, and Body Refining? Don’t even think about it without several decades.

Unless one’s physique is special and Innately close to the universe’s Origin Force, that’s roughly the timeframe.

But Lin Yuan took only eight hours… this was simply freakish.

“Body Refining with Origin Force did not cause any rejection by the Taiyin and Taiyang powers within my body. It seems this Evolution Path is very suitable for my understanding,”

Lin Yuan nodded slightly, feeling that his choice did not have any mistakes.

Within the cosmic starry skies, various complex energies intertwined with each other.

Without the guidance of the Origin Force Evolution Path, even with Lin Yuan’s Against-Heaven’s Understanding,

to lock onto a type of energy that suits oneself from so many energies, it would take a terrifying amount of time.

Not to mention, the universe’s Origin Force is a very suitable power for Lin Yuan.

“With the Dao of Taiji as the foundation, and the universe’s Origin Force as the main body…”

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, faintly seeing the direction towards the Third Rank.

In the Dragon Tiger World, Lin Yuan had reached the Second Layer Limit with the Dao of Taiji and even had one foot into the Third Rank.

But ultimately, he was not at the Third Rank.

Now, however, as he continually grasped the essence of Origin Force, Lin Yuan was not far from stepping into the Third Rank.

Time had passed by another eight hours.

While Lin Yuan continued to be engrossed in comprehending the Dao of Origin Force,

a female mechanic robot arrived at the underground training field, pulling a trolley in front of Lin Yuan.

“Master, it’s time to eat,”

the female mechanic robot said.

In the interstellar age, most families arranged for a housekeeper robot at home.

This female mechanic robot was the housekeeper robot bought by Lin Yuan, responsible for housework, cooking, acting as a bodyguard, and so on.

When Lin Yuan lived with his parents, his mother, Lu Qiong, disliked the soulless food prepared by robots.

She usually cooked herself.

Lin Yuan didn’t have such feelings. With his current powerful digestive abilities, he wouldn’t have any problems even with raw food.

Opening the dining table,

the housekeeper robot served seven or eight dishes.

They were mostly meat dishes, cultivated from the genes of various enormous starry sky beasts, containing an incredibly high amount of energy.

If an ordinary citizen ate this meat, just two or three bites would be overwhelming, but Lin Yuan was different. With his powerful body, digesting this meat was only a matter of one or two hours.

About ten minutes later,

Lin Yuan finished all the food.

In fact, with Lin Yuan’s current conditions, he could completely rely on taking nutrient solutions to maintain the nutrients required by the body.

But years of dietary habits made Lin Yuan still prefer to eat various kinds of visible food.

Just as Lin Yuan was preparing to continue immersing himself in cultivation,

a ‘video call’ suddenly popped into his view.

“Who’s looking for me?”

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

He glanced at the ‘caller ID’.

It was Mr. Liao.
