Chapter 794: Chapter 789 Wind Rises Part 1

Central Star Region, Gate No. 11.

Boom!

A bright white light suddenly illuminated the void.

A fleet of black battleships slowly emerged from the white light, heading towards Gate No. 11.

Gate No. 11 was established on the periphery of a giant planet, with a long passage connecting the gate to the planet’s surface.

Surrounding it was a silver-gray ring-shaped metal band, serving as a temporary transfer station for docking spaceships.

Inside the ring transfer station, hundreds of various-sized merchant and passenger ships were continuously coming and going.

A giant black turtle, roughly one-third the size of the entire planet, was lying nearby, serving as a guardian.

Lin Xin stood inside the battleship, looking towards the star gate.

"Has a trade market already formed here?"

"Nearly so, most of the urgently needed wartime supplies are transferred through here. Furthermore, the wreckage from the Demon Domain, which the Heavenly Alliance Military Division doesn’t need, is sold off at these border ports, often taken by merchants."

Accompanying Lin Xin was one of the researchers from Green Lake Mountain, an old cultivator whose rank was in the Golden Core Stage, but whose position was equivalent to a Nascent Soul.

He specialized in studying the balance of societal structures after the outbreak of war, making him a rather unique immortal cultivator sociologist.

Currently, the cultivation world of Green Lake Mountain had an abundance of talent across its six divisions, making each category and branch a fruitful ground for research and exploration.

"Black Dragon Port is safely guarded by the Black Dragon King’s son, Xuanwu Puhua Heavenly Venerable. However, with the collapse of the Demon Race, the pressure on the defense line has been directly shifted onto us, the Heavenly Alliance. The future is now unclear." The old cultivator remarked.

He had been temporarily assigned to accompany Lin Xin back and was not particularly aware of Lin Xin’s cultivation strength.

The Lord of Cloud Light also observed the port alongside him.

"Let’s head directly to the Demon Domain. Staying here won’t benefit either of us. This planet is just an ordinary landmass, not transformed by a Heavenly Venerable. I could swallow half of it in one breath. Staying here is a waste of time."

Lin Xin nodded.

Unconsciously, he had already reached such a powerful state.

A planet that he could only look up to in his previous life, though small, now seemed like a fragile, tiny space he could destroy at will.

It felt like a fragile, thin paper box, easily crushed with a casual press.

Being able to decide the life and death of billions on a planet, wouldn’t this already count as a great power for so many people?

"But why do I still feel so weak... so weak..."

Lin Xin gazed at the port, his mind tumultuous.

"Proceed directly to the star gate for transit."

He opened his mouth to order.

"Understood!"

"Start adjusting the trajectory, activate the second rune group."

"Activate the third rune group!"

"Begin speed enhancement."

"Adjust the burning furnace to thirty-seven units, and revert to ninety-six units in five seconds."

One by one, the battleship pilots quickly began adjusting their direction and speed, heading straight for the star gate.

The entire fleet slowly turned, flying straight toward the star gate.

The Lord of Cloud Light had grown impatient watching, thinking if it were just him, he could reach the destination in a few swipes of his tail, much faster than the battleship’s sluggish move.

"I’m going back to sleep!"

He turned and left restlessly.

Lin Xin stood alone in the pilothouse, quietly looking at the scenery outside the window.

The Free Attribute Points continued to pour into his constitution column.

Having killed several Heavenly Venerable incarnations in the Soul Sect Star Domain, his gains already soared to over 460,000 points.

He put all of them into his constitution.

The injuries from the previous great battle had already healed completely. The constitution column, originally only at more than 70,000, had now swelled to a massive 530,000 points.

He could distinctly feel a fiery blaze burning inside him at all times.

This flame seemed ready to swell his body at any moment. Had he not constantly suppressed the tension, he feared his body might deform from the expansion.

He hadn’t tried to gauge if this transformation was good or bad, but since awakening his attribute abilities, he hadn’t encountered any problems, so it should be a positive change.

"530,000 constitution... If my previous 70,000 points corresponded to an early-stage Earth Immortal level body cultivator, then 530,000 points now would be nearly eight times that of an early-stage Earth Immortal."

No body cultivator had ever reached such terrifying heights.

At the Earth Immortal level, everyone focused on the Land for God Worship. Even if they had divine beasts, many had lost the means to train their flesh and could only maintain at a Human Immortal’s extreme level.

Buzz....

The fleet of ships gradually decelerated, stopping in front of the star gate to undergo inspection.

The inspection was completed quickly, as their paperwork was exceptionally complete. Given the presence of someone as important as Lin Xin, the port at the star gate completed the formalities and swiftly allowed them to pass.

This caused a stir among the fleets waiting in line, with many questioning the queue-cutting over their ship’s communication systems.

But after receiving a response, they all fell silent.

They were no match for a fleet from Green Lake Mountain’s upper echelon, who were beyond the reach of mere Human Immortal level worldlings.

Buzz....

The ship restarted, flying towards the star gate’s entrance.

Lin Xin reached out, gathering a ball of purple-black lightning light.

This was the most basic form of Thunder Elemental Energy.

With a slight effort, the True Yuan surged slightly, and with a puff, the thunder turned into a purely purple ball, immediately becoming violent and crackling continuously.

The surrounding pilots in the hall became somewhat jittery.

"Carry on as usual."

Lin Xin casually took the electric ball and left the pilothouse, finding a testing room and activating the formation’s protection.

"True Yuan thunder seems different from the electricity on Earth before. Its color changes right from the start. This was driven by Golden Core level True Yuan."

He brought the electric ball in contact with a piece of Golden Core level test metal plate in the room.

Puff!

The silver metal plate instantly charred, with a flower-like pattern on its surface.

Black at the center and surrounded by white.

Lin Xin squinted slightly, dispersing the protective aura, and pressed the electric ball against his arm lightly.

Puff!

The ball of electricity fiercely scorched his skin, but the skin remained white and unscathed, even its texture unaffected.

"Constitution determines recovery as well as resistance to Taoist Arts. This Golden Core level power is ineffective on me."

Dispersing the electric ball, Lin Xin formed another electric ball, this time with a blue center within the purple. Roughly the size of a fist, it resembled a brilliant glass orb, slowly rotating in his palm.

Again dispersing the protective aura, Lin Xin slightly touched the electric ball against a Nascent Soul level test metal plate to verify its power before pressing it against his arm.

"Nascent Soul level, ineffective."

The electric ball still had no effect on his skin.

The third experiment.

Lin Xin gathered an electric ball with a purple outer layer, a blue middle, and a white core.

This time he was to conduct a Human Immortal level test; on the entire battleship, there was only one Human Immortal level test plate.

He didn’t bother testing the metal plate as he was well aware of his own True Yuan power.

He immediately pressed the electric ball onto his arm.

Puff!!

A puff of white smoke arose.

The electric ball fiercely scorched Lin Xin’s skin, and he could clearly feel the heat. But there was still no damage to the skin.

"Still ineffective. I am now completely immune to fifth rank Dao techniques." Lin Xin concluded.

For the fourth time, a pure white electric ball quickly gathered in his palm.

With the amplification from the Fire Cloud Technique, his control over thunder and fire far surpassed ordinary cultivators of the same rank, and having now reached the Origin Earth Realm of an Earth Immortal, his control over simple thunder and elemental energy-based skills was naturally sufficient.

This time, the electric ball’s surroundings were severely fluctuating, apparently causing instability in space even before it burst.

Threads of increasingly deep black cracks extended from the ball, like a spider web, actually small fissures to the next celestial realm.

The crackling sound of the electric current continuously echoed in the testing room.

As before, Lin Xin pressed the electric ball against his arm.

Crack!!

A tremendous electric current sound exploded. A dazzling spark suddenly lit up, followed by tiny space fissures trying to tear Lin Xin’s skin.

But it was meaningless; the white skin remained unaffected under the twin assault of electricity and space fissures.

Lin Xin felt a slight pain, however.

It was a sharp, needle-like pain continually piercing from his skin to his brain.

But he could also distinctly feel that as soon as his skin was slightly damaged, it was instantly repaired.

The speed of this repair was so rapid that even he had to carefully sense to barely catch a trace.

"Ordinary Taoist arts of the Origin Earth Realm Earth Immortal are ineffective against me. Considering this, even Earth Immortals at the Source of Life level and those at the Candle of Fate level, without Realm Artifacts, would not significantly threaten my body. They could be considered immune."

The test results were out.

Being immune even to Dao techniques at the Earth Immortal Level, Lin Xin felt a sense of shock.

What is the concept of Earth Immortals? Below Heavenly Venerables are Earth Immortals.

From countless worlds, Green Lake Mountain Sect selects the most elite and talented from among trillions of beings.

This countless number of cultivators operates the entire sect structure across various worlds.

Amidst such enormous quantities, there were only about twenty Heavenly Venerables.

And as for Earth Immortals, a rough estimate numbered only in the four digits.

Leaving aside those Dust Condensed Earth Immortals unable to advance due to qualifications and injuries, the remaining wouldn’t exceed a thousand.

Any one of them walking out can dominate a world.

Such beings couldn’t even pose a threat to Lin Xin.

"It seems, in terms of resistance, I have indeed reached the level of Heavenly Venerable."

He dispersed the electric ball, assessing within his mind.

"And with the Protective Aura... Attributes also stack on the Protective Aura."

Even he wasn’t sure how strong of a Dao technique his body could withstand.

He felt that he had become a bottomless black hole, continually devouring countless attribute points, strengthening himself every moment.

Stronger, stronger, and even stronger!

This feeling almost intoxicated him.
