58: Chapter 58: The Perspective of Making a Wish?
Although he had successfully promoted, that powerful force was still continuously pouring into Su Lin's body.
He did not resist, simply absorbing it quietly.
He could clearly feel that his body and soul were undergoing some strange transformation.
His connection to this world seemed to have become tighter.
It was as if the power between heaven and earth could be called upon by him.
This was one of the hallmarks of the Calamity Level.
According to the records in the books, the Awakening Level was primarily a process of continuously strengthening oneself and calling upon the power within.
However, the Calamity Level could already initially call upon natural, heaven and earth power, converting external energy for one's own use.
Therefore, the combat endurance, burst power, and recovery ability of the Calamity Level were more than a notch stronger than the Awakening Level.
As for what was above the Calamity Level, it seemed to be a realm called the Catastrophe Level.
It was said that this realm could already initially influence the world and possessed the ability to open up a domain.
In any case, every realm was almost a qualitative leap, and even different levels within a realm were worlds apart.
Su Lin absorbed the power pouring into his body while digesting the knowledge he had learned from the books.
He could clearly perceive that his current strength was a significant step stronger than it was just a moment ago.
This feeling was truly wonderful.
However, these books of his seemed to only record the methods for promoting to the Calamity Level.
After all, these were just basic books; even the content on promoting to the Calamity Level was already extremely precious and could not be bought on the market at all.
He was only able to get them because he was lucky enough to run into that young man who sold the books.
As for the methods to promote to the Catastrophe Level...
Most of this information was controlled by various sects, national authorities, and major factions.
To learn about it, one had to join them or exchange something of value with them.
It had to be said that the monopoly on extraordinary knowledge in this world was slightly unfriendly to a rogue cultivator like him.
It seemed he had to find a way to obtain higher-level cultivation methods and promotion materials from those organizations and factions.
People like Special Agent Liu Zhen of the Supernatural Bureau, the gathering leader Qian Sihai, and even that spatial-type girl Shen Qingci, were all people he could potentially contact.
However, that was a matter for later.
He had just promoted to the Calamity Level and was still far from the Catastrophe Level; he would think about it and plan slowly in the future.
...
...
He didn't know how much time had passed, but that energy finally stopped pouring in, and he gradually calmed down.
Su Lin could clearly feel that he had become even stronger.
The vast power contained within his body was several times more substantial than before his promotion.
His physical body had also improved in every aspect.
Whether it was strength, speed, reaction, or mental power, there had been a qualitative leap.
The improvement from promoting to the Calamity Level was indeed significant!
If he were to run into that cadre from the Eternal Hall again, he would have the confidence to kill him directly.
Of course, that guy had already been killed by him from a distance, so there was no chance for that.
While thinking this, Su Lin was preparing to exit this meditative state.
Just at this moment—
"Save me... someone, please save me..."
An ethereal, tearful plea for help echoed in his mind.
Su Lin was stunned for a moment.
What was going on?
At the same time, he noticed with surprise that there seemed to be a lot of fluorescent lights in his Gray Mist Space.
Those fluorescent lights were like little stars in the night sky, scattered in every corner of the Gray Mist Space.
They were dense, and he didn't know how many there were.
Moreover, they seemed to be whispering something.
Su Lin listened carefully, and the voices coming from those fluorescent lights were diverse:
"I hope I can pass the interview tomorrow..."
"Bless my son so he recovers from his illness quickly..."
"If only I could win the lottery..."
"I hope that scumbag gets hit by a car when he goes out..."
These seemed to be the voices of people making wishes.
However, most of them were trivial wishes.
They were also a bit noisy, chattering like a swarm of flies buzzing in his ears.
Su Lin was speechless and simply moved his mind to block all these voices.
The Gray Mist Space returned to quietness.
Su Lin fell into deep thought.
Could it be that after he promoted to the Calamity Level, that "God's Perspective" had also changed?
Previously, he could only passively enter that special state when people prayed to him for power or probed his origin.
But now, he could actively probe other people's wishes?
In other words, had he gained the perspective of "a god seeing others make wishes"?
However, thinking about it carefully, it seemed normal.
In the entertainment works of his previous life, weren't there many tropes like "wishing to summon fairies/goddesses" or "wishing to attract evil gods/demons"? Perhaps it was a similar principle?
However, most gods probably wouldn't care about these trivial matters, nor would they bother to.
After all, what god would be bored enough to help people pass interviews or win the lottery?
Even whether they would listen to these wishes was an unknown.
However, being able to enter this state still made Su Lin feel it was quite wonderful.
He tried to scan those fluorescent lights with his mind and found that their sizes and brightness were all different.
Some were so dim they were almost invisible, while others were brighter.
But most of them were ordinary white fluorescent lights.
Just at this moment, his gaze was attracted by an exceptionally bright point of light.
That point of light emitted a scarlet glow, which was particularly conspicuous among the sea of white fluorescent lights; it didn't look simple at all.
Su Lin was a bit puzzled and tried to tap it with his mind.
The next second—
"Save me... whoever it is, just save me... save me..."
That ethereal female voice rang out again, filled with tears and despair.
Moreover, this time it wasn't just the voice, but also some blurry images and perceptions.
Su Lin could feel that the person calling for help was in an extremely cold and dark place.
She seemed to be trapped by something, unable to escape, and was desperately calling for help.
More importantly, Su Lin could clearly perceive that the distance between him and this red dot was not far.
It was right near Linhai City!
Su Lin was stunned at first, then became excited.
Although he didn't know what was going on, he had just promoted and was looking to test his skills, and now this came along.
Moreover, he also wanted to see what these wishes and this "God's Perspective" were really about.
Not to mention, this point of light was so special—large and red—it didn't look like an ordinary person at all.
Perhaps, after saving her, there might be some benefits.
Thinking this, Su Lin exited the meditation state directly and opened his eyes.
Inside the rental apartment, the lights were dim and yellow, and everything was as usual.
Thunder Soul, Time Shadow, and the Magic Statue were playing quietly by the bedside.
He stood up and stretched his muscles and bones, his joints making a crackling sound.
"It's time to set off."
