335: Chapter 335 The real show has only just begun!

Lin Yuan was extremely satisfied with the all-encompassing leap in life brought about by this manifestation.

He sat quietly on the soft sofa, not rising, merely lowering his eyes slightly as a thought stirred within his sea of consciousness.

In an instant, an invisible yet vast psychic power radiated quietly from his body as the center, spreading out like a tidal wave.

One hundred meters, five hundred meters, one kilometer, three kilometers...

In the next second, every environmental detail within several kilometers was crudely imprinted into his psionic field.

Without a single blind spot!

Furthermore, with a single thought from Lin Yuan, the glass filled with water on the coffee table suddenly floated into the air without warning.

It hung steadily in mid-air, about ten centimeters above the tabletop.

The surface of the water in the glass was as smooth as a mirror, without a single ripple.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan's psychic power suddenly contracted.

"Click."

The glass emitted an extremely faint, crisp sound, and its surface was instantly covered in fine cracks.

Yet it did not shatter; that invisible force wrapped tightly around it, maintaining its original shape.

Immediately after, the water in the cup defied the laws of gravity, turning into a crystalline stream of water that slowly pulled itself out from the cracks.

The water spiraled and meandered in mid-air, finally hovering above Lin Yuan's fingertips.

Watching the pulsating stream of water above his fingertips, Lin Yuan slowly closed his fingers.

"Hiss—"

The water line in mid-air was compressed by an irresistible force, directly turning into a puff of white steam that dissipated into the air.

And the shards of the glass, having lost the force holding them together, simultaneously turned into extremely fine powder, falling rustling onto the surface of the coffee table.

Lin Yuan withdrew his hand and leaned lazily against the back of the sofa; this simple little test caused the corners of Lin Yuan's lips to curl into a satisfied arc.

A sense of security.

This was the first time since Lin Yuan transmigrated that he had felt such a pure, such an absolute sense of security.

"The peak of the Deity Transformation realm, combined with psionic power..."

"From now on, what modern society calls physical assassination has become a complete joke to me."

Lin Yuan murmured in his heart, his gaze deep.

Although he hadn't gone to a specialized testing ground to conduct extreme destructive power tests, based on the test just now—where he hadn't even exerted one ten-thousandth of his power yet achieved such results—Lin Yuan already had a preliminary understanding of his current strength.

From today on, he no longer needed to rely on the constant protection of his inner guards, nor did he need to worry about the desperate assassination attempts from the intelligence agencies on The Other Side of the Ocean.

He had now completely stepped outside the rules of the chessboard, transforming from a player who needed to place his pieces cautiously into the game-master who could flip the table at will!

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.

"The fanaticism and firm belief of billions of people have forcibly pushed me to this realm that is difficult for ordinary people to reach..."

In his mind, he couldn't help but picture the scene across the land of the Xia Kingdom at this moment, where hundreds of millions of people were sitting cross-legged on their beds, agonizing and struggling to comprehend that introductory cultivation technique.

And immediately following that, he pictured The Other Side of the Ocean, where those foreigners who didn't even have the qualifications to begin were impotently raging at translation software, scratching their heads in frustration.

"The whole world is bitterly meditating and breathing, trying to comprehend those obscure meridians and circulation cycles..."

"Only I have skipped all the tedious processes, with no bottlenecks, no wasted years, ascending to the heavens in a single step, reaching the peak of the Deity Transformation realm directly."

"This mode of utilizing extreme information asymmetry to harvest the emotional value of all humanity, making the whole world willingly 'work' for me..."

A dark, cunning light flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.

"Is truly addictive."

However, after the brief pleasure, Lin Yuan's eyes quickly returned to reason and clarity.

Having his strength secured only completely resolved his personal worries.

Although the peak of the Deity Transformation realm is strong, for Lin Yuan, it was merely the starting point of a new phase.

"The leeks of the cultivation system still need to be harvested."

"The current stage result is only the peak of the Deity Transformation realm; above that are the Void Return and Dao Integration realms... These all require even greater confidence to support."

Lin Yuan's fingers tapped lightly on the sofa armrest as his brain began to spin rapidly, deducing the grand layout for the next step.

"Right now, I have only released one introductory technique for consolidating the foundation and nurturing the essence. After a while, once the citizens have tasted the sweetness, I can throw out something new..."

"First, whet the appetite and capture the minds of the entire world, and when the time comes to cast out new lies, the confidence contributed by everyone will only be even more fanatical than today."

"And besides that, there is..."

"The second world."

Everyone in the outside world, including the high-level officials of the Xia Kingdom, thought this was just a simple virtual reality network project meant to benefit the entire population.

But only Lin Yuan himself knew what that seventh-generation space-based communication network covering the globe really meant.

"Once the second world is officially opened, the massive global user base—whether for entertainment, work, or to communicate and cultivate in the virtual world—will inevitably scramble to connect to this network..."

Lin Yuan calculated in his heart, the smile on his face becoming increasingly profound.

He didn't need to worry about the deployment of hardware computing power at all; with the technical support manifested by the system, it was only a matter of time before the Xia Kingdom pushed it forward with the power of the whole nation.

What he truly valued was that hidden and lethal ultimate privilege that would come once the second world was fully rolled out globally.

"Xiao Long..."

Lin Yuan silently recited this name in his heart.

As his personally created Artificial Intelligence that belonged exclusively to him, Xiao Long was currently only parasitic within the Hidden Dragon System.

But since he was now to lead the creation of the fully immersive second world neural network, as the chief designer, he naturally had ten thousand ways to weave Xiao Long's core code silently into the deepest architectural layer of the second world.

When the day came that the second world fully covered the Blue Star, Xiao Long would be able to silently infiltrate every network node, every terminal device, and even every subconscious mind connected to the network across the globe.

By then, it would no longer be a simple AI assistant.

But, in a sense... the God of the Network!

"Not only that..."

Lin Yuan's thoughts slowly gathered, his gaze shifting slightly to rest on the coffee table beside him.

There, besides the pile of powder he had just used to test his psionic power, two other things were quietly placed.

Looking at these two physical creations that represented two other ultimate evolutionary paths, the smile in Lin Yuan's eyes completely rippled outward.

"The show has only just begun."
