416: Life level
Birth determines the future.
This statement holds true even among Cosmic Beasts.
Setting aside top-tier Cosmic Beast races like Icefrost Giants and Blazeflame Sprites, even ordinary Cosmic Beasts have extremely strict hierarchical divisions of life levels.
From lowest to highest, they are successively divided into ten levels: Level One, Level Two, Level Three, Level Four, Level Five, Level Six, Level Seven, Level Eight, Level Nine, and the highest, Top Level.
The division is based on the average strength of racial members at birth and their average strength at adulthood.
For races like Blue Star organisms, whose strength at birth and adulthood is below Planetary-level, their life level is, without a doubt, classified as Level One.
Races whose strength at birth is below Planetary-level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Planetary-level, can be classified as Level Two.
Races whose strength at birth is below Planetary-level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Star-level, can be classified as Level Three.
Races whose strength at birth is below Star-level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Star-level Five or above, can be classified as Level Four.
Races whose strength at birth is below Star-level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Star-level Nine, can be classified as Level Five.
Races whose strength at birth is below Star-level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Cosmic Level, can be classified as Level Six.
Races whose strength at birth is below Star-level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Cosmic Level, can be classified as Level Seven.
Races whose strength at birth is below Cosmic Level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach World Lord Level, can be classified as Level Eight.
Races whose strength at birth is below Cosmic Level, and whose strength at adulthood can reach Domain Lord Level, can be classified as Level Nine.
Races whose strength at adulthood can reach Immortal-level or above, can be classified as Top Level.
This standard is not fixed, but it generally follows this rule.
As a member of the Fire Phoenix race, a newly born Phoenix Bird only has the strength of Planetary-level One.
After a thousand years, upon reaching adulthood, it barely possesses the strength of Star-level Three, only just qualifying as a 3.5-level life form.
Even after countless rebirths, and even after numerous secret treasures were used to enhance its aptitude,
the Phoenix Bird could only barely manage to have Planetary-level Five strength at birth and Star-level Nine strength upon adulthood.
It reached the standard for a Level Five life form.
Any further attempts to improve itself were futile.
The life level was like an innate shackles, tightly restricting the Phoenix Bird's potential and development.
There are many secret treasures in the universe that can increase one's life level, but most are not very effective, only capable of raising it by one or two levels at most.
Moreover, they are extremely difficult to acquire and priceless.
Comparatively, the heart of the heavenly sea, which can significantly raise one's life level and reshape the body, is actually the most cost-effective item.
It is also the most suitable treasure for the Phoenix Bird to obtain.
This is also why he has been deeply cultivating in the Law Arena for hundreds of millions of years.
In this life, as his age was about to reach one hundred, before completely losing the qualification to access the Law Arena, the Phoenix Bird finally accumulated one hundred million points, enough to exchange for a heart of the heavenly sea.
Thinking of this, the Phoenix Bird's eyes showed excitement, and he let out a loud cry:
“I can finally break free from this body with its low life level and possess greater development potential.”
“These shackles that have always confined me are finally about to be broken by me.”
“Once broken, the sky is high and the sea is vast for me to roam.”
“Qiuhuo? When I emerge, I will surely sacrifice you with blood.”
“Lin, showing off your power in front of me just because your life level is higher than mine?”
“Soon you will understand that in front of me, you can only look up!”
The Phoenix Bird was incredibly arrogant, as if venting the resentment accumulated in his heart over hundreds of millions of years.
However, he did not know that Lin Tianwei, whom he claimed was only fit to look up to him, had only the lowest, Level One life level.
Not only that, but Lin Tianwei, despite having only a Level One life level, had already accumulated over a hundred million points early on.
If he hadn't squandered a large amount of points to purchase the Law Book, Lin Tianwei would have already been able to exchange for a heart of the heavenly sea of his own... In the training ground.
Lin Tianwei's incredibly powerful Beast King Domain was like seawater, directly annihilating the flames representing the Reincarnation Domain.
Along with it, the Phoenix Bird manifested by the training ground was also annihilated.
Without a doubt, Lin Tianwei won this Arena, achieving victory with overwhelming force.
Even if the process involved some trickery, Lin Tianwei's victory was an inevitable outcome; the only difference was what method Lin Tianwei would use to achieve victory.
The outcome was decided the moment Lin Tianwei successfully comprehended the Beast King Domain.
However, the Phoenix Bird's babbling before his death still caught Lin Tianwei's attention.
Lin Tianwei didn't care about the so-called accumulation over countless generations.
The Phoenix Bird was indeed cunning and diligent enough, like a Cosmic Beast with a protagonist template.
Unfortunately, he was not lucky enough to meet Lin Tianwei.
In a world with Lin Tianwei, only Lin Tianwei was the sole protagonist.
Any Cosmic Beast daring to stand in Lin Tianwei's way would only face death.
It was the “Alien Battlefield” mentioned by the Phoenix Bird that greatly interested Lin Tianwei.
Unfortunately, even with the assistance of the intelligent AI, Lin Tianwei searched through Filiche's memories but found no relevant information.
Perhaps this was information only accessible after reaching a certain level.
Shaking his head slightly, Lin Tianwei decided to no longer concern himself with the Alien Battlefield.
No matter how mysterious the Alien Battlefield was, he would eventually be strong enough to personally unveil its mysteries.
Returning to the matter at hand.
Facing the powerful Beast King Domain, which had just instantly killed the Phoenix Bird, Lin Tianwei was not entirely satisfied.
Similar to the Phoenix Bird's feeling, Lin Tianwei always felt that his Beast King Domain was strong, but it seemed to lack something, preventing it from unleashing its maximum power.
The power that had just instantly killed the Phoenix Bird was definitely not the true power of the Beast King Domain.
Life level!
According to the introduction of the Beast King Domain, Lin Tianwei quickly understood the problem.
Due to his low life level, he simply could not unleash the full power of the Beast King Domain.
However, this was not a troublesome issue for Lin Tianwei.
Wasn't the reason he risked entering the Law Arena precisely to condense a more powerful body and raise his life level?
Even the task he had assigned to Ismail earlier was in preparation for condensing a body.
One beast's plan is short, many people's plan is long.
Only by drawing on the strengths of many could Lin Tianwei condense a more powerful body.
Although he had successfully comprehended the Domain, Lin Tianwei did not intend to immediately start matching for the next Arena.
Having just mastered the Domain, he was not yet skilled enough and needed more practice.
Thinking this, Lin Tianwei summoned the Phoenix Bird again.
He planned to use the Phoenix Bird as a whetstone to hone his control over the Beast King Domain.
Once he could skillfully control the Beast King Domain, he would then venture into the Law Arena and claim the glory that rightfully belonged to him.
He would even ascend to the top of the Law Arena, becoming the undisputed number one.
It was a familiar feeling, a familiar taste.
As soon as the Arena began, the Phoenix Bird ignited himself, using his life force as fuel, attempting to turn Lin Tianwei into nothingness through the power of the Reincarnation Domain.
However, this time, the Phoenix Bird was facing a brand new Lin Tianwei, a Lin Tianwei who had mastered Domain power. How could he possibly succeed again?
Being forced offline in a sorry state again? That was simply impossible.
Beast King Domain, unfold!
Golden light illuminated Lin Tianwei, making him appear like a shining golden sun.
However, this seemingly brilliant golden light only covered Lin Tianwei's body and did not spread throughout the entire Chaotic Domain like the Phoenix Bird's Reincarnation Domain.
Lin Tianwei did not intend to perish together with the Phoenix Bird, so it was naturally impossible for him to burn his life to increase the power of the Beast King Domain.
Since it was to test the practical effect of the Beast King Domain, Lin Tianwei naturally had even less need to cheat by exchanging points for recovery fluid.
This time, Lin Tianwei would defeat his enemy with his true ability and achieve a victory that truly belonged to him.
Upon noticing the golden light emanating from Lin Tianwei and feeling the familiar Domain power, the Phoenix Bird's expression became serious, and he said:
“I never thought I would encounter a rookie who has mastered Domain power.”
“It seems I should also get a little serious and show you my true strength.”
As soon as his voice fell, the Reincarnation Domain that had originally permeated the entire Chaotic Domain, as if summoned, began to converge towards Lin Tianwei's location.
In an instant, it completely engulfed Lin Tianwei.
He's dead.
Facing different opponents, the Phoenix Bird would devise different countermeasures.
If he hadn't thought Lin Tianwei was someone without a Domain, he wouldn't have been so reckless.
If he were truly that foolish, he wouldn't have been able to maintain his ranking in the seventies.
One must know that no Cosmic Beast ranked in the top one hundred of the Law Arena was simple.
The moment he sensed the Domain aura from Lin Tianwei, the Phoenix Bird abandoned his intention to toy with Lin Tianwei and directly burned all his life, unleashing his strongest attack.
The Reincarnation Domain no longer dispersed to every corner of the Chaotic Domain, but instead quickly began to converge towards Lin Tianwei's location.
Ultimately, it coalesced into a terrifying Reincarnation Domain.
When the body template is restricted, it is difficult to create a significant gap in physical strength unless there is a huge difference in Talent.
Facing the Phoenix Bird's attack, unleashed by burning all his life, Lin Tianwei's seemingly indestructible Beast King Domain only lasted for a moment,
before being completely shattered and turning into nothingness.
However, just as the Reincarnation Domain was about to show its might, Lin Tianwei timely stopped the training, thus avoiding another hasty forced offline.
This was, after all, the Arena, Lin Tianwei's Arena.
It was completely under his control, allowing him to make countless attempts.
Shaking his head slightly, Lin Tianwei secretly thought that the Beast King Domain, using only one-thousandth of his strength, was indeed not powerful enough to even resist a mere Reincarnation Domain.
This time, he would use one percent of his strength.
With the blessing of countless Talent templates, Lin Tianwei happened to be one of the few Cosmic Beasts capable of creating a significant gap in physical strength.
That's why he was confident that he could contend with the Reincarnation Domain released by the Phoenix Bird burning his life, without using all his power.
The Arena reopened, and the golden light on Lin Tianwei became even more dazzling, illuminating every strand of his fur, making him appear like a deity descended from the heavens.
Upon sensing the Domain aura from Lin Tianwei, the Phoenix Bird's expression changed again, and he burned all his life, unleashing an extremely powerful attack.
However, this time, the Phoenix Bird's Reincarnation Domain was unable to break through the Beast King Domain released by Lin Tianwei.
They were evenly matched, actually showing a stalemate.
The Phoenix Bird's pupils widened, and he exclaimed, “How can you possess such powerful physical strength?!”
One must know that this was his full-power attack, unleashed by burning his life.
Unless there was a huge difference in Domains, the only explanation was a huge difference in physical strength between the two.
The power of a Domain is extremely special and is enhanced by the Domain owner's comprehension of laws.
That is to say, each of the Phoenix Bird's rebirths was an enhancement to the Reincarnation Domain.
The Phoenix Bird was confident that his Reincarnation Domain, after countless generations of rebirth, would definitely not be inferior to any other Domain.
Then, the only answer was that his physical body was far inferior to the opponent's.
He was once again suppressed by the birth party! Tears flowed from the Phoenix Bird's eyes as he realized the truth.
However, he did not know that Lin Tianwei's life level was even lower than his, merely the lowest, Level One.
Shocked by the powerful strength Lin Tianwei possessed, the Phoenix Bird was momentarily stunned.
However, while he was stunned, Lin Tianwei was not.
Upon realizing that the Reincarnation Domain could not inflict any damage on him, Lin Tianwei moved.
Under the protection of the Beast King Domain, Lin Tianwei, like a meteor, traversed countless meters in an instant, arriving at the Phoenix Bird's location, at the place where the huge fireball was.
Explosive Bear Claw!
Although the Phoenix Bird had transformed into endless flames, Lin Tianwei's right claw still swung without hesitation.
A trace of black light flashed across the claw tip, an indication of being enchanted by the Power of Destruction.
Tear!
The sharp bear claw mercilessly tore through the flames condensed by the Phoenix Bird, splitting it into six parts.
However, this was only the beginning of Lin Tianwei's attack.
Rapidly waving his bear claws, due to the extreme speed, countless afterimages were left in the air.
It was as if some distorted and indescribable thing was attacking.
Pain, heart-wrenching pain!
His consciousness was mercilessly torn apart by Lin Tianwei, and even with the Phoenix Bird's Tenacity, his expression gradually became distorted due to the pain.
However, he, whose physical strength was already inferior to Lin Tianwei's, had no power to resist Lin Tianwei after losing the protection of the Reincarnation Domain.
He couldn't even escape.
A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, and the Phoenix Bird accelerated the speed at which he burned his life, instantly reducing himself to ashes.
At this moment, the Phoenix Bird was utterly disheveled; facing the overwhelmingly powerful Lin Tianwei, his seemingly strong power only allowed him the right to die quickly. (End of Chapter)
