232: Chapter 232: The Forge of Ten Thousand Paths, Forging the Supreme Godhood

Inside the Sea of Consciousness space, a Divine Power storm raged.

The one hundred and third reshaping.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, suspended in the Void Realm, surrounded by countless shattered chains of Law.

The previous one hundred and two failures had wasted a considerable amount of Power Of Faith, but they also helped him figure out the limit threshold of Law conflicts.

He changed his strategy.

Forcibly crushing the Laws would only invite the most intense backlash.

The Great Dao is simple, and all Laws share the same Origin.

Since the prototype of the [Withering Blood] divinity had already perfectly achieved Fusion of the Law of Blood and the Law of Withered Bones.

What he needed to do was by no means brutal destruction, but rather a smooth and compliant guidance.

The Law of Blood represented the surge of life and the bursting forth of blood Qi.

The Law of Withered Bones represented the withering of life and the silence of death.

These two naturally fit the reincarnation of life and death.

Lin Yuan formed hand seals with his ten fingers, and the fire of Origin beneath the Sea of Consciousness surged, transforming into tens of millions of slender, pure white fire lines that precisely pierced into that rolling crimson river of blood.

The Qi of the End at the dome above fell simultaneously, transforming into heavy, pitch-black fog chains that wrapped around the ghastly white bones inch by inch.

Origin accepted flesh and blood, while End suppressed the withered bones.

Hum!

A crisp hum resounded in the depths of the Sea of Consciousness.

This time, the blood-red light and Death Qi lacked any of their previous irritable resistance.

Following the tracks laid out by Origin and End, they began to rotate slowly and steadily.

The white vitality and black silence transformed into a huge Taiji millstone, rolling the scarlet and pale white into it.

Heaven and earth interlocked, and all things coexisted.

A semi-illusory and semi-real strange crystal floated in the center of Lin Yuan's Sea of Consciousness.

The crystal presented an indescribable Chaos color.

In the upper half, the grayish-black Death Qi was mixed with ghastly white bone spots, exuding a terrifying coercion that caused all things to perish into silence.

In the lower half, dark red bloodlines flowed within the pure white vitality, radiating the majestic vitality of nurturing the stars of the heavens.

The two connected head-to-tail inside the crystal, forming a perfect closed loop that was endlessly life-giving and endlessly recycling.

This was Lin Yuan's Dao.

The Myriad Dao Melting Pot forged the supreme divinity.

He succeeded.

Although he only succeeded halfway.

This prototype of the divinity was still in a semi-illusory and semi-real state, and could not be considered a complete divinity prototype.

The status of [End and Origin] was too high, and relying solely on [Blood Bone] was not enough to fill it.

To make it solid and transform into a true divinity, Lin Yuan still needed to continuously comprehend new Laws in the future years,

Or to put it more directly.

Go and seize the divinity fragments of alien gods, throwing thousands of Daos into this closed loop.

But even if it was just a pseudo-finished product.

The coercion it radiated was enough to chill the heart of any demigod.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

Behind his head, six brilliant divine rings slowly rotated.

Immediately afterward, the phantom of a seventh divine ring quietly emerged above the Divine Fire.

It presented a translucent Chaos color; although illusory, it completely suppressed the light of the six divine rings below.

Pseudo-demigod rank seven.

Lin Yuan stood up, carefully comprehending the changes brought by this brand-new divinity prototype.

It was too strong.

So strong that it completely exceeded common sense.

In the general cognition of deities, cultivating multiple Laws simultaneously was a dead end.

Laws of multiple attributes would repel each other within the body, producing serious internal friction.

But Lin Yuan's divinity prototype broke this ironclad rule.

In this closed loop based on [Origin] and [End].

Not only would the Laws not conflict with each other, but they also achieved a perfect mutual blessing.

1+1 was far greater than 2.

Lin Yuan raised his right hand, his thoughts slightly moving.

A ball of dark red blood light gathered in his palm. He injected the Qi of the End into it.

The blood light instantly underwent a qualitative change.

The Law of Blood, which was originally only used to extract vitality, directly took on the attribute of "conceptual obliteration" under the blessing of the Qi of the End.

The target hit by this ball of blood light would not only have their Physical Body and blood Qi sucked dry, but the vitality imprint at the bottom of their Soul would also be erased, depriving them even of the opportunity to be reborn with the help of faith.

Conversely.

Lin Yuan condensed a Law of Withered Bones in his left hand.

Under the counter-feeding of the fire of Origin, the withered bones representing death actually gave birth to a weird "activity".

As long as Lin Yuan was willing, a skeleton warrior he created could continuously devour the enemies' flesh and blood in battle to achieve self-repair.

Vitality feeds back into death, and destruction breeds new life.

In the future, as long as Lin Yuan extracted more Laws.

Thunder governed destruction, returning to End; vegetation governed vitality, returning to Origin. Space served as the skeleton, and time served as the veins.

All Laws shared the same Origin, and all Daos complemented each other.

Lin Yuan put away the Law in his palm and spat out a breath of turbid air.

It felt very comfortable.

He split off a wisp of consciousness to probe his Wasteland Divine Domain.

The coordinates on the periphery of the Divine Domain were still shrouded in time turbulence, and the grayish fog isolated the time flow rate between the inside and outside.

It seemed that the time acceleration effect would take a while longer to end.

Lin Yuan stood up, looking slightly dazed.

The overflowing power in his body gave him the illusion that he could punch through a planet with a single punch.

Now he needed to find a place to properly adapt to this Physical Body that had undergone baptism by the Law.

Lin Yuan walked toward the smart brain in the corner of the living room, preparing to log into Star Net and find a high-intensity simulation battlefield to test the actual performance.

"Beep—"

The smart brain terminal suddenly vibrated.

Lin Yuan looked at the screen.

It was Instructor Wen Muxue's exclusive encrypted waveband.

Connecting the communication, the holographic projection unfolded in mid-air.

Instructor Wen Muxue had changed into a loose white practice suit today, holding a cup of steaming spiritual tea in her hand, with the minimalist-style grand hall of the floating island in the background.

"Come to the floating island; the dispatch roster has been finalized." Instructor Wen Muxue spoke extremely fast, still having her usual style.

Lin Yuan looked at the holographic projection with a listless expression.

He had tossed and turned in the Sea of Consciousness for so long just now, and his mind was in a period of exhaustion after high tension; he really was too lazy to run errands outside.

"Can't you just send the file to me directly through the communicator?" Lin Yuan asked tentatively.

"That way I save myself this trip and don't delay your refined interest in drinking tea."

Instructor Wen Muxue's action of drinking tea paused, and she looked at him with a half-smile across the screen.

"Fine." She put down the teacup and tapped her fingers lightly on the desktop.

"I can send you the file. However, since your attitude is so passive and you even find seeing your mentor a hassle—"

"Then that batch of special resources that the school specially prepared for the leader for this Blood Covenant Battle, I will just deduct it directly."

Lin Yuan's expression completed a seamless switch within 0.1 seconds.

"Instructor Wen is joking." Lin Yuan spoke righteously, "Respecting teachers and valuing the Dao is the fine tradition of Starry Sky University, and even more so my, Lin Yuan's, code of life."

"Listening to your face-to-face teachings is my duty as a student. I will be right there."

The holographic projection flickered, and Instructor Wen Muxue snorted coldly, directly cutting off the communication.

Lin Yuan turned off the terminal, turned around and walked out of the villa, heading straight for the floating island deep within the campus.

...

Floating island, inside the grand hall.

When Lin Yuan stepped through the hall door, Instructor Wen Muxue was sitting on a recliner with her legs crossed.

Her mood today was visibly excellent to the naked eye.

The iciness that lingered between her brows all year round dissipated by more than half, and her whole person exuded a rare sense of ease and contentment.

Seeing Lin Yuan approach, she casually grabbed a physical file on the table and threw it into Lin Yuan's arms.

"See for yourself."

Lin Yuan opened the file.

On the first page, his name was still at the top of the list.

[Leader: Lin Yuan (Starry Sky University High-Risk Class 3)]

Sweeping his gaze downward, the other five dispatch slots were listed on the paper.

[Bai Ye (Starry Sky University High-Risk Class 3)]

[Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao (Starry Sky University High-Risk Class 3)]

[Su Yueying (Starry Sky University Regular Tactics Class 1)]

[Xing Yun (Starry Sky University Regular Tactics Class 2)]

[Jiang Tai'a (Starry Sky University Regular Tactics Class 2)]

Lin Yuan's gaze swept quickly over these names.

There were indeed quite a few acquaintances.

Lin Yuan was not surprised that Bai Ye and Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao were selected.

Although that guy Bai Ye was usually unreliable and always wanted to take advantage, his hard strength was definitely there, and he had quite a few trump cards.

Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao had experienced the transformation of mechanical Ascension in the Rubiks Cube World, and her state of mind and strength seemed to have undergone a qualitative leap. Coupled with the particularity of her Divine Domain, she could definitely be considered a sharp blade.

Su Yueying was also on the list, which saved a lot of trouble.

Everyone knew each other well, so communication didn't require too much time.

As for Xing Yun.

Bai Ye would send him messages to brag from time to time, and sometimes mention this guy named Xing Yun.

The last name, Jiang Tai'a, Lin Yuan had no impression of at all.

Lin Yuan closed the file and raised his head.

Instructor Wen Muxue was holding a teacup, staring at him brightly with the corners of her mouth slightly upturned.

"Did you see that?" Instructor Wen Muxue pointed at the file in Lin Yuan's hand, her tone brisk.

"Out of the six slots, our High-Risk Class 3 directly took up half! Even the leader is right here with me."

She stood up and paced back and forth in the grand hall, her voice growing louder and louder.

"Those old fogies in the school usually always make an issue of my teaching attitude, criticizing me for acting extremely and not caring whether students live or die."

"And the result? As soon as the roster came out, all of them shut the fuck up!"

"Those old pedants brag every day about how deep their tactical classes and command classes' Foundations are and how solid their theories are."

"When it finally comes down to real swords and guns fighting for their lives at the front line, don't they still have to rely on the students I taught to hold down the fort?"

Instructor Wen Muxue stopped in her tracks, crossed her arms over her chest, raised her chin slightly, and looked disdainfully.

Looking at her appearance, Lin Yuan was speechless in his heart.

He really didn't expect that this notoriously fearsome "God of Slaughter" mentor—

Once she cast off the cloak of majesty, her vanity was actually strong to this extent.

It simply made people unable to look straight at her.

However, thought criticisms aside, Lin Yuan still flattered her a couple of times on the surface.

"Instructor Wen teaches with great skill. Class 3 being able to have today's achievements completely relies on your wise guidance."

Instructor Wen Muxue waved her hand very contentedly: "Alright, spare me this empty flattery."

Lin Yuan took advantage of the situation to step forward and said:

"Then, Instructor Wen. Since the list has been read, that batch of resources prepared by the school for the leader that you mentioned in the communicator..."
