417: The true advantage of perfect engraving!

Inside the Enlightenment God Temple.

Lin Chen activated the years pearl.

"I wonder if the Time Acceleration of this years pearl will still be effective for me after my true spirit breaks through to the Ancestor Realm..."

The years pearl is a quasi-ancestor artifact, and its Time Acceleration field is only effective for the Half-step Ancestor Realm.

"I can't think about that much right now; I just have to break through first!"

After taking out the enlightenment ancient tree, Lin Chen directly consumed 50 billion crystal energy points.

Instantly, his true spirit began to slowly transform toward the Ancestor Realm level!

With 30.63 billion crystal energy points remaining, Lin Chen attempted to increase the Fusion degree of his Physical Body, true spirit, and Dao by 1%.

He prepared to increase the Fusion degree of all three powers at once!

Instead of fusing two of them first.

With a Fusion method like his, the difficulty would increase significantly, but with the help of the System, Lin Chen didn't need to worry about the various Bottlenecks during the Fusion process at all!

Hum—

The System instantly consumed 300 million crystal energy points.

Seeing this, Lin Chen's pupils constricted; he had guessed that using the System to fuse the three powers might require a massive amount of Energy Points.

But he hadn't expected so many!

It was 200 million crystal energy points more than comprehending the Dao!

After collecting his thoughts slightly, Lin Chen carefully calculated.

He found it to be acceptable.

Because he was fusing the three powers simultaneously.

After fully achieving Perfection in the Fusion of the three powers, he could increase his Primal Origin Power by 300 points!

This was equivalent to gaining 3 points of Primal Origin Power for every 1% of Fusion degree!

As for his Grandmist Great Dao, he could gain 2 points of Primal Origin Power for every 1% of comprehension.

Achieving Perfection in Fusion happened to require 30 billion crystal energy points, which was completely sufficient.

By then, he would use his Clone to also bring the Grandmist Great Dao to Perfection, and his Realm would be able to reach the Peak of the Half-step Ancestor Realm...

The moment the Energy Points were consumed, inside the countless dao source worlds within Lin Chen's body.

Using the Eternal Fire as a medium, the three powers began to fuse rapidly.

If other Half-step Ancestor Realms knew of this scene, they would definitely be scared to death...

This speed of Fusion completely disregarded the consequences; a slight carelessness would cause the holy fire to collapse and extinguish!

Lin Chen naturally didn't need to worry about this...

Time flew by, and soon a thousand years passed.

The Fusion degree of the three powers within Lin Chen's body finally reached 1%!

This Fusion speed far exceeded that of an ordinary Half-step Ancestor Realm!

If Lin Chen hadn't used the System, he estimated that to fuse 1%, even with the help of a Time Acceleration secret treasure, tens or hundreds of epochs would have passed in the outside world...

Therefore, the Energy Points he spent were very worthwhile, especially in such a special period!

Just at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly discovered something was slightly off.

He looked abruptly at the system panel.

Primal Origin Power: 7

Hmm?

"Why is it 7 points?"

"Shouldn't it be 6 points?"

Lin Chen sensed carefully, and his face instantly showed wild joy.

He discovered that every 1% of Fusion of the three powers could increase his Primal Origin Power by 4 points, not 3!

In other words, during the Half-step Ancestor Realm period, he would have 100 more points of Primal Origin Power than other Half-step Ancestor Realms!

"Could it be... that the Dao inscriptions on my holy fire are Perfect-grade Inscriptions?"

Lin Chen suddenly remembered what Old Lei had told him before.

Possessing Perfect-grade Inscriptions meant that after the three powers fused, their might would far exceed ordinary inscriptions...

Old Lei didn't have Perfect-grade Inscriptions either, so he didn't know exactly how much the Primal Origin Power would be boosted.

"So... these Perfect-grade Inscriptions are this Heaven-Defying!"

Having 100 extra points of Primal Origin Power was terrifying.

With the legendary grade quasi-ancestor artifact long blade that Lu gave him, he could now reach a 953-fold boost in Primal Origin Power!

That was a gap of over 90,000 points of Primal Origin Power!

By the time his Realm reached the Late-stage Half-step Ancestor Realm, his strength would reach a terrifying level, perhaps he could even directly contend with Ancestor Realm existences!

After figuring this out, Lin Chen steeled his heart and directly consumed 29.7 billion crystal energy points.

He wanted to max out the Fusion degree of the three powers all at once!

At this time, his Clone was also crazily comprehending the ultimate-grade Grandmist Great Dao under the 1100-fold Comprehension Ability boost!

The difficulty of the ultimate-grade Grandmist Great Dao increased the further one progressed.

Not to mention that the Grandmist Great Dao was not an ordinary Dao to begin with, which made the difficulty even greater.

Fortunately, Lin Chen had many Clones, so even if they encountered a Bottleneck, they could verify with each other.

The comprehension level of the Grandmist Great Dao was also increasing at an extremely fast speed.

Just like that, in this closed-door cultivation, Lin Chen made Breakthroughs in multiple areas simultaneously.

He was completely immersed in it, and the flow of time within the years pearl was astonishingly fast.

Two hours had passed in the outside world.

Yet over 20,000 epochs had passed inside the years pearl!

During this period, Lin Chen's three powers had long since achieved Perfection in Fusion.

And the Grandmist Great Dao had also long since been comprehended to Perfection over 10,000 epochs ago!

The main reason was that the true spirit transformation was too slow!

From the Half-step Ancestor Realm to the Ancestor Realm, the true spirit would undergo a qualitative transformation!

The span of the true spirit at the Ancestor Realm level was too great.

At this moment, Lin Chen suddenly discovered that the Time Acceleration of the years pearl had sharply decreased to a thousand times...

"It seems I will have to search for Time Acceleration secret treasures of the Ancestor Realm level in the future."

Now that only his true spirit had broken through to the Ancestor Realm, the Time Acceleration effect of the years pearl had weakened by so many times; by the time his Dao and Physical Body also broke through, he estimated it would have no effect at all...

Lin Chen made a comparison and found that his Ancestor Realm True Spirit Power was at least a million times stronger than when he was in the Half-step Ancestor Realm!

Now, to deal with those in the Half-step Ancestor Realm, he only needed his true spirit to sweep across them...

Unless the opponent carried a very high-quality true spirit defense secret treasure, Lin Chen would have no opponents below the Ancestor Realm!

"No, it's likely that some ancient Half-step Ancestor Realms have also achieved one of the conditions for breaking through to the Ancestor Realm."

After calming down, Lin Chen recalled.

Previously, Gu and the other Ancestor Realm Experts had told him a lot of information about breaking through to the Ancestor Realm.

There are four conditions to achieve for breaking through to the Ancestor Realm.

Dao reorganization, true spirit transformation, Physical Body transformation, and the three powers achieving Perfection in Fusion!

Of these four conditions, the final one, the three powers achieving Perfection in Fusion, is relatively simpler.

Only after achieving Perfection in Fusion can one be called a Late-stage Half-step Ancestor Realm.

And as for the other three conditions, as long as one is achieved, it is the Peak of the Half-step Ancestor Realm!

"Let's test the God Extermination Art!"

Lin Chen's gaze narrowed; after his true spirit broke through to the Ancestor Realm, the span was so great that he felt the God Extermination Art might be weakened significantly.

Hum—

The moment the God Extermination Art was cast, Lin Chen only felt his already terrifying True Spirit Power surging again.

Boom—

The space of the Enlightenment God Temple seemed unable to withstand such terrifying True Spirit Power.

Countless Void Realm cracks actually began to appear.

Outside.

The vast Enlightenment God Temple began to tremble slightly.

The Half-step Ancestor Realm level exotic beast that had been guarding the entrance of the Enlightenment God Temple woke up abruptly.

It looked at the Enlightenment God Temple with its huge head in confusion.

A moment later, this ancestor artifact level Enlightenment God Temple returned to normal.

"An illusion?"

"It seems I must have sensed it wrong..."

After a low growl, the exotic beast slowly descended.

At this time, inside the Enlightenment God Temple, Lin Chen had already retracted his aura.

"The God Extermination Art was indeed weakened..."

"After comparing, it can only boost by 10 times."

"After the Ancestor Realm True Spirit Power increased by a million times, it can still boost by 10 times!"

"It truly deserves to be called an ultimate-grade Secret Art!"

Lin Chen's expression was very excited; he finally understood the power of the Ancestor Realm.

This was only the true spirit Realm Breakthrough.

Ancestor Realm beings are strong in every aspect!

After the true spirit, Physical Body, and Dao all break through, and then fuse...

Lin Chen didn't even dare to imagine how powerful that would be!

It could be said that the Ancestor Realm is completely a different level of life!

After pulling back his thoughts, Lin Chen looked at the system panel.
