Chapter 98: The Limit of Ordinary Clan Members
Inside the stone house.
After reaching the limit of his spirit power, Yi Chen was surprised to find that he had not broken through.
Whether it was from the Qi Condensation Stage to the Spirit Release Stage or from the Spirit Release Stage to the Spirit Law Stage, it usually happened that once the purity of spirit power reached its peak, a breakthrough to the next major realm would naturally follow.
But this time, an unexpected situation arose.
After reaching the limit of spirit power, he did not succeed in breaking through to the next major realm.
Had his talent reached its cap?
Yi Chen quickly and decisively dismissed that assumption.
What a joke!
He was built on the strongest talent of humanity plus nearly double the talent bonus.
If he really were to reach his limit, then Guli and other talented individuals would never break through to the Spirit Law Stage; they would have already reached their limits during the Spirit Release Stage and could not have advanced further.
“Then there’s only one possibility—reaching the ninth level of Spirit Law requires not only spirit power to be cultivated to its peak but also other conditions!”
“What condition… could it be the comprehension of the laws of nature?”
A sudden realization rose in Yi Chen’s heart.
Since he broke through to the first level of Spirit Law and created the Method of All Laws, he had not comprehended the laws of nature again, progressing all the way to the pinnacle of the ninth level of Spirit Law.
If he were to say something was missing that was closely related to the realm, it was most likely the comprehension of the laws of nature.
With this understanding, Yi Chen did not stop his practice. He allowed his spirit power to continue circulating in his meridians as usual.
Instead, he focused all his attention on comprehending the laws of nature.
Buzz!
Undoubtedly, with Yi Chen’s talent, this condition was not difficult at all.
In just a few minutes, his body trembled slightly.
A powerful pressure surged out from his body.
It felt substantial, rampaging throughout the entire stone house.
Even within two to three hundred meters above and around the stone house, wild winds began to stir.
The Little Gold Ball, which had been sleeping soundly, jumped up.
Its entire golden fur bristled, resembling a golden hedgehog.
With its small green bean-like eyes, it glanced around, and upon realizing that the source of the aura was Yi Chen, it settled down again.
It went back to sleep.
The guards outside, however, were not having such a pleasant time.
He was not at the center of the pressure, but he was far weaker than the Little Gold Ball, which had already reached over Level Twenty.
Caught off guard, he was directly swept away by that gust of wind.
“Tr-Tribe Leader…”
He climbed up, confused, and called out outside.
Undoubtedly, he was not a qualified guard.
“It’s fine!”
Yi Chen replied.
…
“Ha! He broke through! Yi Chen has reached a new major realm.”
“Just as expected! Everyone, look at the data scanned by the scanner; his repair gene has indeed increased by another level.”
“This means the lifespan cap has soared to one thousand years!”
“I remember that the ordinary tribe members of the Angelic Beings and the Three-Eyed Tribe have a lifespan cap of one thousand years, right?”
“That means, as long as we all break through to the new realm on average, our average lifespan could reach the same level as the Angelic Beings and the Three-Eyed Tribe.”
“Thank heavens, Yi Chen didn’t surprise us this time; just like usual, after breaking through to a new major realm, his lifespan cap doubled again.”
“Awesome! With a lifespan of one thousand years, my wish to travel the entire galaxy can finally come true!”
“My wish to find one hundred girlfriends also has a solid foundation now. One every ten years, easy peasy.”
“The most important thing is that it’s not the limit. If all goes well, breaking through to the next major realm will raise his lifespan cap to two thousand years.”
The audience in the live room all breathed a sigh of relief, cheering with excitement.
Although traditionally, after breaking through to a new major realm, the lifespan cap doubles, and from all angles of analysis, it had almost a hundred percent certainty.
But a hundred percent for Yi Chen did not mean a hundred percent.
Therefore, as Yi Chen’s breakthrough approached, most people felt increasingly tense.
Luckily, there were no surprises.
…
Nobody knew that Yi Chen slightly frowned.
At the pinnacle of the ninth level of Spirit Law, breaking through to a new major realm required a certain level of comprehension of the laws of nature.
This posed no difficulty for him.
He only needed to spend a little time grasping the laws of nature occasionally.
The deeper the comprehension, the greater the effect on his strength, so it was not a waste of time.
But the problem was that while this condition had little impact on him, it greatly affected the tribe members of the Flame Mountain Tribe.
After the first level of Spirit Law, without further comprehension of the laws of nature, he spent just over ten minutes meeting the conditions needed for a breakthrough.
He guessed that Guli and the other talents of the tribe likely had talents only one-third to one-fifth of his current level, yet it should not be too difficult for them.
Even those with slightly lower talents would just need to spend a little more time.
But for the ordinary tribe members who needed over a year to break through from the Qi Condensation First Stage to the first level of Spirit Release, the problem might be quite significant.
Spirit power can be slowly accumulated over time, but understanding the laws of nature requires perception.
Without enough perception, the difficulty of grasping the laws of nature increases geometrically.
It is possible that they could spend their whole lives without reaching this condition.
The pinnacle of the ninth level of Spirit Law is likely the talent limit for ordinary tribe members.
Reflecting on this, Yi Chen felt relieved.
He had anticipated this situation long ago.
The talents of the tribe members all have limits.
Even the top talents among humanity, like Guli, may not have reached their limits yet, but eventually, they will.
However, his talent can continue to improve through the Strongest Talent System, making it virtually limitless.
Moreover, his unlimited talent includes not just training speed and perception, but also the ability to create skills.
Once his talent reaches a certain level, he will surely be able to think of ways to improve the average talent of the tribe members through skills or other means.
Currently, the average strength of the tribe members is only around the third or fourth level of Spirit Release, which is still very far from the ninth level of Spirit Law.
Considering their talent limits is simply an unnecessary worry.
What he should really think about is how to help them improve their realm faster.
Having figured this out, Yi Chen immediately shifted his focus to trying to perceive the existence of divine consciousness.
This was the most important thing on his mind right now.
It was also the reason why he had only created the Method of All Laws at the Spirit Law level and focused all his efforts on training, without considering or planning any other new skills.
He had ideas and inspirations for new skills, but he lacked the ability to match and realize these ideas.
Calming his mind, he cleared away distractions.
Yi Chen closed his eyes and began to extend his perception ability, trying to ‘see’ the surroundings.
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
Suddenly, he was thrilled to discover that even with his eyes closed, he could vaguely see the scene around him within about one meter.
Moreover, it was a 360-degree view with no blind spots.
However, his vision was not as clear as with his eyes.
He continued to try, striving to make his perception ability clearer.
Gradually, the scene within one meter began to become clearer.
In fact, it exceeded the clarity of his eyes.
He could even faintly see the dust in the air, notice the subtle bumps on the wooden bed, and observe each strand of golden fur on the Little Gold Ball, seeing their different lengths…
In an instant, it felt as if he could see everything within one meter, every tiny detail.
His head began to throb slightly.
Yi Chen had to interrupt.
At every moment, he could see countless high-definition images, which made his brain struggle to process it all.
He needed to get used to it slowly.
He then turned his attention to listening to the sounds around him.
Not with his ears.
But through his perception ability.
