Chapter 289: Cultivating the Three Major Techniques, Various Divine Powers and Secret Techniques
With only a few participants in the trials, how could he hide himself?
For others, this would be quite difficult, but Yun Ye had the Rebirth Book as a vessel for his memories.
So, it was simple —
He could cut off his memories and modify them.
After passing the examination, he could awaken them using the Rebirth Book, everything happening in secrecy.
However, before that, Yun Ye needed to receive the rewards from all eight levels.
Since it was called the Tower of Creation, this tall tower certainly had its mysteries, such as improving cultivation without any side effects.
Generally speaking, in stories where something enhances cultivation without side effects appears, it often leads to the story going off the rails, ultimately resulting in a collapse of combat power and a poorly concluded ending.
But in a real world, cultivators do not possess anything special; whether it’s Physical Law talent, Spiritual Law talent, or Spirit Law talent, all these come from research and creation by pioneers, then passed down through generations.
In other words, in past eras, there must have been a group of people who could create bloodlines and talents out of thin air, even manipulating cultivation levels.
And there are countless methods to achieve this.
Yun Ye could even do some of these techniques himself; his laboratory had training support devices that allowed clones to cultivate the Origin Law on their own.
If using a more crude method, one could simply apply a time acceleration from the outside.
Accelerating a century directly would instantly boost one’s cultivation level, right?
The Tower of Creation was something similar; this was a specially crafted inheritance tower by a grand force named the Heavenly Sect, ensuring that even if trial participants could not inherit the Nine Lives Spirit Law, they would still have the ability to see through fate.
The name Disaster Source Heavenly Sect clearly indicates that it is a sect skilled in fate and calamity.
In this case, the evaluators must be constantly appearing, so the Tower of Creation, besides serving as a trial function, also needs to reward the evaluators.
For cultivators, cultivation takes a long time to achieve, and if there is a way to bypass that lengthy period, it may not be the best, but it is certainly useful.
After considering multiple factors, the Disaster Source Heavenly Sect chose the most straightforward reward for cultivation.
Besides its usefulness, the low resource consumption was another significant reason.
The platform’s function became evident; formations appeared, birthing indescribable spiritual light.
When this spiritual light entered Yun Ye’s body, it immediately turned into part of his being, allowing him to utilize it with a thought and enhance his cultivation.
Cultivation in the spiritual realm is measured by the degree of meridian spiritualization.
Yun Ye had been researching spiritual bodies, and his meridian spiritualization remained at 0%, just at the entry into Spiritual Realm.
However, Yun Ye’s lack of cultivation did not mean he couldn’t spiritualize his meridians during the forging of his spiritual body; it was simply that premature forging could lead to mistakes in the route, which would require a complete overhaul and loss of substantial resources.
If it were a power gained for free, Yun Ye wouldn’t mind receiving it.
Thus, when the first layer’s light shone down, Yun Ye gained a 30% energy circulation spiritualization degree for both water and fire laws; the second layer then skyrocketed to 100%, reaching perfection, though Yun Ye did not know how much overflow had occurred.
He simply drew the conclusion that his Walking Law cultivation…
Was terribly poor!
The weaker the Walking Law, the less resource consumption it required, and thus the weaker its power; this high tower only needed rewards from two layers to fully stack the spiritualization degree of the two major Walking Laws, undeniably indicating that the Spirit Law he had been practicing was very subpar!
"My lifespan has indeed increased to two hundred."
After reaching perfection in the spiritual realm, Yun Ye opened the Rebirth Book and took a look. His recorded lifespan limit had returned to two hundred years, neither more nor less, exactly two hundred years.
With the Spiritualization of his meridians, his spiritual body was finally complete.
Whether for spiritual cultivation, physical cultivation, or divine cultivation, once the meridians were fully spiritualized, the lifespan limit increased to two hundred years.
Every 10% progress added another 10 years to his life; it wouldn’t suddenly grant an extra 100 years upon entering the spiritual realm.
But interestingly, only the first Spiritual Law could increase lifespan; further cultivation of additional Spiritual Laws would be completely useless.
It was like a rule that firmly locked the lifespan limit in the spiritual realm.
"Let’s try out this new power…"
Yun Ye closed his eyes, and soon his body became a boiling aura, creating a visible transparent spiritual field around him.
He tried to reach out with his hand, but it passed right through; however, with a thought, the spiritual field reshaped and covered his arm. It seemed that to use this new power well, he needed some time to get familiar with it.
This was a power obtained automatically after stepping into the foundational stage, the "spirit energy domain," a conceptual defensive capability that was effective against Spirit Law, Physical Law, and Spiritual Law.
As his cultivation level increased, the spirit energy domain would also continuously gain enhancements.
If using spirit energy solely to construct a defense required one hundred units for it to work, then the spirit energy domain only needed fifty units, and as cultivation continued to improve, the required amount would keep decreasing.
As for how low it could eventually go, that would depend on the quality of the techniques employed.
The spirit energy domain was Yun Ye’s first ability fully dedicated to defense; if he could obtain the Earth Spiritual Root later, he would be complete in the defensive aspect.
Yun Ye took out the Rebirth Book. He still had six layers of rewards to claim, and since he had reached the limit in cultivating Spiritual Law, it was time to cultivate Physical Law and Spirit Law!
Then he paused. If he were to retrain the Nine Lives Spirit Law, Lan Wuyin might catch on to something.
This…
He decisively gave up.
There was no need to take unnecessary risks!
"Then I will cultivate ordinary Spirit Law and Physical Law."
Yun Ye recalled the many Origin Laws that Lan Wuyin had provided.
"The Fate Manipulation Origin Law can refine into a profound-level divine body, focusing on fate prediction and advantageous avoidance through Spirit Sense Law. The resulting divine body has an extremely strong sense of danger; often, everything has yet to happen, and it has already been sensed, allowing for the highest-level defense by preemptively avoiding danger."
This Spirit Law was close to the Nine Lives Spirit Law and could be used to enhance its power; it would be sufficient for this lifetime.
"Whoosh…"
As the Rebirth Book flipped open, Yun Ye saw that his fortune had returned to normal. He then activated the Nine Lives Spirit Law.
As the complete heir of the Nine Lives Spirit Law, Yun Ye could consecutively increase nine variables, greatly enhancing the accuracy of fate prediction; at least within ten seconds, the results were accurate.
The fate prediction began.
During the prediction, Yun Ye dispersed his own Spirit Law meridians and cultivated the Fate Manipulation Spirit Law.
The formation of the runes for the Fate Manipulation Spirit Law did not change, but the Spirit Sense energy was replaced by Yun Ye with the ultimate Divinity.
As the light of the third layer shone bright, a vast amount of Spirit Sense energy surged in, instantly bringing his Walking Law to great perfection, beginning to form the yin spiritual body.
About halfway through, the formation failed; Yun Ye’s physical body exploded, and the fate prediction ended in the same instant.
"Ten seconds of prediction and my mental energy has already consumed a tenth… Is it to ensure complete accuracy?"
The Nine Lives Spirit Law not only allows for fate prediction but also has the ability to forcibly fix destiny.
For example, when faced with multiple possibilities, he can expend great magical power to ensure the correct possibility becomes certain.
This force to fix destiny consumes an enormous amount of energy; to use this method to steer fate in his favor, one must have at least a Law level in cultivation. For Yun Ye, with his cultivation level in the spiritual realm, it was already difficult to maintain it for a few seconds, let alone interfere with future destinies.
Yun Ye took a Spirit Law pill and began his methodical repetitions of fate predictions. Finally, on the fortieth attempt, he successfully completed the Fate Manipulation Origin Law.
The formations lit up, and the reward from the third layer grew even more substantial, with a massive amount of light pouring down from above.
Yun Ye immediately felt an intense influx of Spirit Law energy entering his body.
In a brief moment, the cycles of Spirit Law energy through three hundred meridians completed.
Next, Yun Ye activated the Origin Law, initiating a qualitative change from the soul level and acquiring the yin spiritual body.
The yin spiritual body was not of a physical nature but akin to an inner spirit.
After gaining the yin attribute of the Fate Manipulation spiritual body, Yun Ye’s Spirit Sense perception was elevated, allowing him to see spiritual bodies.
At the same time, his power in Spirit Sense soared from five hundred meters to five kilometers.
The Spirit Law spiritual body only enhanced spiritual power, providing no boost to physical strength.
However, his control abilities gained further enhancement, although at Yun Ye’s current stage, the improvement to his control wasn’t significant.
To increase his spirituality like in the past, he needed to cultivate the Spirit Law to a Law level, transforming his Spirit Sense into Spirit Thought.
After completing the Fate Manipulation spiritual body, the third layer reward was exhausted.
The Fate Manipulation Spirit Law forged an advanced spiritual body, which was a whole level stronger than the Silent Spiritual Body and vastly superior to the Three Mystical True Fire Method, so the reward for the third layer was just to forge a spiritual body.
Yun Ye continued to receive the fourth layer reward, completing the Spiritualization of his Spirit Law meridians. In the end, it only improved by about 30%, reaching 100% only at the fifth layer, achieving perfection in the Spirit Law spiritual realm.
Due to having an advanced spiritual body, his divine runes were also far superior to those of Baishi Town’s Spirit Law; Yun Ye’s Spirit Sense detection range was not the twenty-five kilometers he had estimated before, but one hundred kilometers.
This distance was truly exaggerated, as Spirit Laws of the same realm could never reach such a range in attack.
Yun Ye’s danger sense was even more extraordinary, extending well beyond one hundred kilometers; within a thousand-mile radius, if someone harbored intense malice toward him, he could sense it.
Although he couldn’t pinpoint the source, he could alert himself, allowing him to perform fate predictions against potential threats.
This was truly a Spirit Law prepared to safeguard his life.
As for the other mysteries of the advanced spiritual body, he would need to progress to law realms—at least the kind of Mystic Law power held by Hai Hao required cultivation to reach that level.
Yun Ye finally understood why, despite Xie Fei’er practicing Spirit Law, she could keep up with his incredible speed; it wasn’t just due to disparities in cultivation levels. It was also because Spirit Law inherently possessed strong observational and predictive capabilities.
Every step he took was thoroughly understood, so even though her Spiritual Law and Physical Law cultivation were lacking, Xie Fei’er could still easily match his speed and even counter his moves.
“The Nine Star Origin Law, Law level, advanced spiritual body, focusing on explosive Physical Law, can segment the star rings into nine stars that restrain oneself, granting powerful defensive capabilities and explosive power.”
Yun Ye followed the method and completed the derivation of the Physical Origin Law, advancing it to spiritual realm perfection.
Perfecting the three laws brought him great accomplishments!
With the change of Physical Law, he gained the yang spiritual body, and Yun Ye could feel himself growing stronger in every way.
The combination of the three laws far surpassed any single law.
Moreover, since Yun Ye grasped the Essence that required the Three Major Techniques to unleash, as the Spiritual Law and Spirit Law advanced, the power of his Essence would also see a tremendous boost.
“It’s indeed impossible for the Essence that requires the Three Major Techniques to activate at the law realms,” he thought.
If it weren’t for the Tower of Creation enhancing his cultivation, Yun Ye would not attempt to practice all three laws simultaneously.
After most cultivators advance to the law realms, their other two laws would likely be stuck at the Mortal Realm. With such a large gap in realms, the three laws simply cannot merge.
Even if they did merge, the powers of the Mortal Realm or Spiritual Realm could not amplify those of the law realms.
Yun Ye could manage it because he had always remained at the peak of the Mortal Realm and was just at the entry into the Spiritual Realm, so the three laws essentially had no significant disparities.
If he continued to improve his Spiritual Law, he would gradually lose his Essence, resulting in a decline in strength. It would be far better to study the Silent Spiritual Body first.
“With the Physical Law star ring… and Physical Law Thunder. Wait, I actually didn’t grasp it?”
The star ring is a symbol of life force, present even in the Mortal Realm, but in the Mortal Realm, the star ring is merely symbolic and only provides a minor boost to strength.
However, upon reaching the Spiritual Realm and stepping into the foundational stage, one could employ the secret technique of ‘star ring manifestation.’
This is a form of enhancement similar to the revival of Spiritual Roots, but it only targets the physical aspect.
Additionally, there is a divine ability that comes naturally at the Major Achievement spiritual realm called Physical Law Thunder.
This ability is achieved when one’s control over the body reaches an incredibly exceptional level, allowing the manipulation of biological electricity and accelerating reaction speeds to a new realm.
Theoretically, this secret technique is something that all at the Major Achievement spiritual realm should naturally grasp.
However, Yun Ye unexpectedly did not possess it. When he attempted to manipulate the biological electricity within him, he did not experience the effortless mastery that was rumored; instead, he faced numerous obstacles.
“Wait, Physical Law Thunder is a secret technique mastered only after achieving a high level of body control. Is this because my Vital Essence cultivation is too low?”
Yun Ye quickly realized.
His Divinity and Vital Essence were only around the second tier, which naturally was insufficient to support the natural birth of divine abilities. After closing his eyes and pondering for a moment, he found his answer.
Only upon reaching the early third tier could one naturally grasp Physical Law Thunder, provided that one’s cultivation level reaches the Major Achievement spiritual realm.
Moreover, the mid and late stages of the third tier also correspond to different physical divine abilities.
Those extraordinary talents in Physical Law would at least have a mid-third tier Vital Essence level.
From the third tier onward, improving one’s control becomes extremely challenging; even decades of relentless training might not be enough. Yun Ye had faced numerous great disasters, forcing his spirituality to the late third tier, a venture most people would never have the opportunity to experience.
The enhancement of force at the third tier is indeed terrifying, justifying its difficulty.
At the early first tier, force might be increased by about two times.
At the early second tier, force could be raised by about twenty times.
While at the early third tier, one could start with two hundred times, and at the late third tier, it could reach as high as ten thousand times. Only advanced magical methods might allow control power to be cultivated beyond the late third tier.
If it weren’t for the truly terrifying amplification power of spirituality, based on the quality of spirit energy alone, even with extremely exceptional attributes, it would be impossible to kill in the law realms as easily as swatting a dog.
As for the law realms of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, they would certainly not be weak, at least having a third-tier early spirituality level.
Even at late third tier, Yun Ye’s strength barely approached a hundred times more, meaning his advantage against those extraordinary talents would be even less.
After the battle with Hai Hao, Yun Ye’s spirituality level had already advanced to early fourth tier, mastering the characteristic of ‘spirit energy preservation.’ Otherwise, defeating Xie Fei’er would have been several times more difficult.
