224: One person is like a vast river that flows endlessly and nourishes all things!

The next morning.

As the first ray of morning light silently shone through the gap in the curtains and fell upon Chen Nian's face, he slowly opened his eyes.

In that instant, the air in the entire dormitory seemed to freeze for a moment.

Deep within Chen Nian's eyes, a golden radiance, more profound and condensed than ever before, flashed and vanished, seemingly containing the rotation of endless galaxies.

Immediately after, it completely disappeared into his calm eyes.

He habitually looked inward at himself.

A terrifying torrent of Spiritual Energy, vast as the ocean and mighty as a sea of stars, instantly filled his perception!

This power was pure, condensed, and boundless.

Compared to before he Cultivated yesterday, a world-shaking qualitative change had occurred!

Within his Dantian Qi Sea, the already turbulent river of Spiritual Energy had now expanded several times over!

At the center of the river, the golden sun formed by his Natal Spiritual Core had increased in volume by several circles, and the profound runes flowing on its surface were more complex and brilliant.

It emitted glorious Divine Might, like a true star nurturing life!

Every pulsation triggered a surging tide of Spiritual Energy throughout his body.

It was endless, cyclical, and contained horrifying, world-destroying energy!

And his Mental Energy, or rather, his Divine Thought, also underwent a radical transformation following his Breakthrough in Realm.

An invisible Divine Thought silently spread out, centering on him.

Everything within a radius of several kilometers, down to the smallest detail, was clearly reflected in his mind.

This perception was not simply sight or hearing.

Rather, it was a more three-dimensional, comprehensive, and keenly insightful control!

He could even “see” the flow trajectory of Spiritual Qi in the air, “hear” the subtle sounds of vegetation growing, and “feel” the faint pulse of the Earth Vein energy deep beneath the ground!

His perception ability had become stronger once again!

Chen Nian was very satisfied with this.

With a slight movement of his mind, the light blue System panel instantly unfolded before his eyes.

[demon slaying and evil eradication system]

[host: Chen Nian]

[Realm: Spiritual River Realm (Rank 80)]

[physique: Prison Suppressing Divine Body · Seventh Tier (Rank 81)]

[Skills: Mountain-Collapsing Fist (Rank 24), Myriad Things Yuan Absorption Art (Rank 1), Heart-Devouring Demon Silk (Rank 8), Blood Fiend Incarnation (Rank 1), Xuanzhen Qi Sha Formation (Rank 1), Nether Shock (Rank 20), Netherworld Body Protection (Rank 1), Blood Pupil Domain (Rank 2), Evil-Warding Heavenly Thunder (Rank 10), Soul-Capturing Dragon Roar (Rank 3), Abyssal Return to Silence (Rank 7), Heaven-Burning Flame (Rank 4)]

[points: 51]

Looking at the information on the panel, a sharp glint flashed in Chen Nian's eyes.

Spiritual River Realm, Rank 80!

Overnight, his Realm soared from Spiritual River Realm Rank 20 to Rank 80.

If this rate of improvement were to spread, it would be enough to make any Psionicist's Dao Heart crumble and doubt life itself.

But on him, it seemed perfectly natural.

After stepping into the Spiritual River Realm, he already understood.

The core of Cultivation in this Realm lies in “turning rivers into a sea, gathering a hundred rivers to become one.”

Every time he leveled up, he required massive amounts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to fill, expand, and deepen it.

That already formed “Psionic River Flow.”

Making it more majestic and condensed, ultimately moving toward the “Spiritual Sea” Realm.

The Spiritual Energy within a cultivator of this Realm is no longer comparable to ordinary amounts.

One person is equivalent to a vast river, rushing endlessly and nourishing all things!

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi drawn in by his every move will be dozens of times greater than before!

The power of the spells he unleashes will also undergo a qualitative leap!

However, correspondingly, the amount of Spiritual Qi required for each level increase grows exponentially.

If it were an ordinary Psionicist, even if they were exceptionally talented and had abundant resources.

To go from Spiritual River Realm Rank 20 to Rank 80.

It would likely take several years.

During this time, they would also face countless Bottlenecks and hurdles.

Yet for him, it only took one night!

This Heaven-Defying speed of improvement is naturally attributed to the overbearing and unmatched [Myriad Things Yuan Absorption Art] and the incredibly powerful Prison Suppressing Divine Body!

The two complement each other, Cultivating both internally and externally.

Pushing his Cultivation efficiency to an extreme that ordinary people cannot comprehend!

“Spiritual River Realm Rank 80, not bad.”

Chen Nian murmured softly, feeling the terrifying power within him—a power that seemed capable of raising ten thousand waves and annihilating mountains with a single thought—and felt a deep sense of security.

He was already extremely powerful now, powerful enough to easily kill an Evil God like the Incinerator.

But he could not stop here.

Deep within the Gloomy Abyss, there were at least five Abyssal Overlords secretly watching.

Those beings have lived for countless years; their methods are strange, and their strength is unfathomable.

They would absolutely not be weaker than the Incinerator, and might even be stronger.

Moreover, the hidden powerful figures and crises of this world are far more profound than what he has currently seen.

No one knows if there are even older, more terrifying existences hidden among them.

Only by continuously improving and continuously growing stronger.

Strong enough to crush all known and unknown threats, can he truly rest easy.

A new day began, and it was time to search for new prey, acquire points, and continue getting stronger.

Thinking this, he picked up his Personal Terminal and unlocked the screen.

He habitually browsed the intelligence and information on the Spiritual Energy Bureau's internal network.

Sure enough, follow-up reports and detailed analyses regarding the Shanyin City “Night Parade of a Hundred Demons” incident were already piled high.

The General Bureau attached great importance to it, classifying the incident as an “Extremely High-Risk Interdimensional Invasion Pre-enactment Event” and raising the national alert Rank.

All major War Zones and branchs received emergency orders to strengthen monitoring of Historically Anomalous Areas and Spatial Weak Points.

The investigation into the “Gloomy Abyss” has also been fully launched.

The General Bureau's technical department is working hard to analyze the energy samples and spatial data brought back from the Scorched Ash Wasteland, attempting to find a way to track or even locate the other Abyssal Overlords.

Chen Nian casually glanced at a few points and then closed the page.

These minor matters would naturally be handled by professionals, requiring no excessive worry from him.

What he was more concerned about now was where there were still Big Targets worth him taking action against.

Thinking this, Chen Nian skillfully entered the Spiritual Energy Bureau's internal network and browsed the latest missions and intelligence information.

He quickly flipped through, hoping to find some high-value targets worth his attention.

However, the result left him somewhat disappointed.

The channel was unusually clean.

Forget about Rank Five, Rank Six, or even higher-risk incidents that required his personal handling.

Even reports of common Rank One or Rank Two Demonic Evils causing trouble were few and far between.

The entire Donghai City and its surrounding areas seemed to have entered a true Era of Peace overnight.

It was so calm that it felt somewhat eerie.

It seems that the last cleanup of the Evil God Cult, coupled with the Shanyin City Night Parade of a Hundred Demons and the Incinerator incident this time.

The deterrent effect was a bit too good... Chen Nian rubbed his chin, feeling a little helpless.

It seems these Demonic Evils and Evil Cultivators were scared stiff and were hiding, afraid to show their faces.

While this was good for ordinary people, for him to acquire points, it meant a “shortage of goods.”

Never mind, when in doubt, find Sun Li.

Chen Nian stopped delaying, got up, adjusted his clothes, pushed open the dormitory door, and walked towards his Exclusive Office.
