Chapter 170: Formation Ideas
“I’ve broken through! Without a surprise, my repair gene has surged again, and my lifespan cap has increased to eight thousand years!”
“The only option left is to worship and admire. The top geniuses of the Flame Mountain Tribe are only at the fifth level of Spirit Consciousness now!”
“Even among our human federation, it’s said that only a few top geniuses have managed to break through to the sixth level of Spirit Consciousness with various resources.”
“Even if the Council or the Military secretly cultivates a group of top geniuses using resources, they still haven’t reached the first level of the Heart Tribulation Stage.”
In the live room, everyone’s attention was focused on Yi Chen.
Because Yi Chen had broken through to a new major realm again.
At the time when the top geniuses of the Flame Mountain Tribe were only at the fifth level of Spirit Consciousness, he broke through to the peak of the ninth level of the Heart Tribulation Stage, achieving a new major realm.
“Sigh, originally, it was a tremendous blessing that Yi Chen’s training speed is so fast. After all, he is the pinnacle of our humanity, and every time he breaks through to a higher major realm, he expands the training path for us even further.”
“But the problem is, those top geniuses are being left further behind.”
“The estimated time for Yi Chen’s fifth teaching of new skills has already been pushed back repeatedly. The sixth teaching of new skills feels like it’s light-years away.”
“Exactly! The top geniuses are already experiencing such slow training speeds at the Spirit Consciousness stage. If they break through to the Heart Tribulation Stage, the training time will increase geometrically.”
“Who knows, the time for the sixth teaching of new skills might end up being over ten years later, or even decades later.”
“Yi Chen’s training talent never seems to reach its limit, but the training talent of the top geniuses feels like it’s approaching its limit…”
After a brief moment of excitement, the audience in the live room quickly fell into a state of gloom.
Yi Chen was indeed forging ahead and pushing boundaries, showing signs of bravery and determination.
However, the path he had laid out made it even harder for the top geniuses to keep up.
If the top geniuses of the Flame Mountain Tribe didn’t meet the conditions and qualifications to learn the new skills, Yi Chen would absolutely not teach them.
The expected timing for the fifth teaching continued to be pushed back.
The timing for the sixth teaching seemed even more distant.
Unless those fake heavy criminals could find a way to make Yi Chen teach the new skills early.
Otherwise, all of humanity would have to endure the torment of knowing that the powerful new skills would be born but could not be learned ahead of time.
…
“It seems that the laws of nature don’t always bring difficulties each time someone breaks through to a major realm.”
In the stone house, having successfully broken through to a new major realm, Yi Chen let out a sigh of relief.
He eagerly began to comprehend the laws of nature.
What he discovered was a delightful surprise.
Just as he had expected.
The profound and difficult laws of nature had become significantly clearer with his breakthrough to a new major realm.
The simple and understandable laws of nature had reached a deeply profound level.
Based on his feelings, it seemed that he had reached the level where he could simulate and construct the power of the laws and thus create formations.
He could definitely try to create the formation first.
With his mind made up, Yi Chen immediately entered a meditative state again, spending the first one or two hours to stabilize his realm.
Next, he set about creating the new realm, known as the Spirit Law stage’s Chaos Technique.
The new major realm was named the Spirit Law stage because breaking through to this realm brought a significant enhancement to the Laws of Heaven and Earth and the power of the laws, allowing him to simulate and construct the power of the laws.
At the Spirit Law stage, he could use his spirit power to guide the power of the laws generated by the Laws of Heaven and Earth to cast various types of spells.
Now, in the Spirit Law stage, he could directly use his spirit power to simulate and construct the power of the laws.
Spirit Law stage would be more accurate.
After all, he could only simulate and construct the power of the laws, not the Laws of Heaven and Earth themselves.
The power of the laws was merely a special force that operated under the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
However, Yi Chen never paid much attention to naming things, so when the Spirit Law stage came to mind, that was what he went with.
Anyway, as the founder of this cultivation technique, no one had the right to question the names he chose.
After successfully creating the Spirit Law stage’s Chaos Technique, the next step was to maximize his divine consciousness.
At the first level of the Spirit Law stage, the coverage range of his divine consciousness could reach a limit of one hundred meters.
Moreover, with each small breakthrough in the realm, he could increase that range by another one hundred meters.
He successfully maximized the intensity of his divine consciousness.
He endured the silence and began to comprehend the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
He continued until his understanding of the Laws and the power of the laws reached its current limit before finally stopping.
After some contemplation, he decided to create a simple defensive formation to test his skills.
Since it was a defensive formation, it first needed to have good defensive capability.
Additionally, it had to block mental attacks and spying.
Both the defensive power and the ability to block mental attacks were for safety reasons.
As for blocking spying, he had felt a vague sense of being watched since he condensed his divine consciousness.
At first, this feeling came and went due to his insufficient divine consciousness intensity, barely noticeable.
He thought it was merely the gaze of mosquitoes and ants.
But as his divine consciousness intensity increased, he started to doubt this guess.
His divine consciousness was strong enough that he should have detected the source and direction of the gaze if it were just mosquitoes and ants.
This made him wonder if some will of heaven or mysterious being was watching him.
In creating the weapon refining technique, he discovered that the higher the grade of a spiritual artifact, the easier it was to condense its spirit.
He felt that the power of the laws generated by the operation of the Laws of Heaven and Earth could also give birth to the will of heaven.
Similarly, he had no doubt that on this vast planet, there existed powerful fierce beasts that he could not yet defeat.
There would definitely be some fierce beasts with extremely strange abilities.
The Little Gold Ball was the best example.
Both possibilities could lead to powerful beings targeting him because of the great changes he brought to humanity.
Of course, it might not be the will of heaven or a mysterious being spying, but rather some other reason entirely.
Yet regardless, Yi Chen had not sensed any killing intent in this spying.
That was why he remained calm and composed.
Now that he had broken through to the Spirit Law stage, he could definitely create formations to block this spying first and see how the other party reacted.
With his mind made up, Yi Chen quickly planned out the process for creating the formation.
The core of the formation lay in simulating and constructing the power of the laws and allowing it to operate long-term.
This was actually similar to spiritual artifacts.
Only, spiritual artifacts refine and merge the pre-existing characteristics of the Laws of Heaven and Earth found in various spirit mines into items with special abilities.
Creating formations, however, is more complex as it directly simulates and constructs the characteristics of the Laws of Heaven and Earth to form a special area with unique abilities.
The advantage of spiritual artifacts is their flexibility and ease of refinement.
The downside is that suitable materials can be hard to find.
The advantage of formations is their immense power. While they may require various materials, they can still be set up even without them.
The downside is that creating a formation takes time and effort, with less flexibility.
However, the two can complement and enhance each other.
For example, the "Cave Paradise" Yi Chen had been conceptualizing is a type of formation integrated into a spiritual artifact to enhance the artifact’s functions.
Conversely, using spiritual artifacts to construct formations can amplify the formation’s power or reduce the difficulty of setting it up.
