NOVPUBChapter 1019: Chapter 887: Five Months_2 Chapter 1019: Chapter 887: Five Months_2 The spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower gazed somberly at the True Martial Saint Lord with its tiny face. It was no fool; previously, the True Martial Saint Lord had mentioned to it that Lin Yun might be able to break through the thirty-fifth layer of this universe, and it wasn’t oblivious to the True Martial Saint Lord’s desire not to plunge this universe into a chaotic era.
But at this moment, it realized that the True Martial Saint Lord had an additional intention.
He wanted it to cultivate Lin Yun into the upper echelons of the Saint Lord Realm…
“Senior, if Lin Yun were to break through the thirty-fifth layer of this universe, it would definitely be of great help in finding the reincarnation of your master,” the True Martial Saint Lord said with an embarrassed smile.
“However, you didn’t mention before that I should cultivate Lin Yun to the upper Saint Lord Realm! The amount of resources needed for that… I could have used them to cultivate tens of thousands of ordinary cultivators to the super realm! I’ve been in this universe for hundreds of millions of years, and my remaining resources are not that plentiful…” the childlike spirit sighed and said.
“How does the saying go? You should use good steel for the blade’s edge. No matter how many ordinary cultivators you nurture to the super realm, your master is still only one person. If you cannot find your master, all the resources you spent would be wasteful!”
“Now, by cultivating just Lin Yun alone, the outcome could be far better than cultivating countless others!”
“If that leads you to your master and Lin Yun has already grown strong, will your master still lack cultivation resources?”
“Besides, it’s not absolutely necessary to cultivate Lin Yun to the upper Saint Lord Realm. Perhaps, merely reaching the middle Saint Lord Realm would be enough for Lin Yun to break the thirty-fifth layer of this universe?”
The True Martial Saint Lord quickly added.
“Forget it, we’ll talk about this when the time comes…” The little spirit shook its head, a look of melancholy on its face. 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
This was a challenging multiple-choice question. The future painted by the True Martial Saint Lord was attractive, making it hard to decline, but the resources needed were also severely impactful.
Moreover, the True Martial Saint Lord’s suggestion seemed far-fetched, to let Lin Yun attempt breaking through the thirty-fifth layer of the universe while at the middle Saint Lord Realm.
What if it wasn’t successful then?
Wouldn’t that considerably increase the difficulty and lower Lin Yun’s chances of breaking through the thirty-fifth layer of the universe at the upper Saint Lord Realm?
“Let Lin Yun continue his cultivation!”
In the end, the three of them couldn’t conclude any solid strategy and were left with this reality.
Talking about it now was premature; they decided it was better to let Lin Yun reach the Sanctuary Realm before reassessing.
Perhaps when Lin Yun reached the Sanctuary Realm, the situation outside would have changed. For example, if they discovered the reincarnation of the master of the Heavenly Principle Tower’s spirit, then their current discussion might become irrelevant.
Or maybe the two spatial nodes connecting this universe with the Netherworld return to their original state, and all the Ghost Practitioners withdraw, making Lin Yun’s rush to cultivate unnecessary.
In any case, nothing was certain.
Soon, the True Martial Saint Lord and the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower left, not disturbing Lin Yun’s cultivation.
Lin Yun once again entered closed-door cultivation.
His premonition was not wrong; the benefits of breaking through the thirty-fourth layer of this universe hadn’t decreased much. As he entered seclusion again, his power surged forward at an astonishing rate.
“Perhaps, I don’t need to rush breaking through the thirty-fifth layer of this universe. After all, I’m not certain if breaking through the thirty-fifth layer will stack with the current effects. If it doesn’t, that would be a big loss. I might as well wait until these effects wear off before attempting to break through the thirty-fifth layer…” Lin Yun reflected, experiencing this rapid growth.
One day… Two days… Three days…
The fourth level of the Super Realm is the final level of the Super Realm and is a level where it’s difficult to define the limit, since everyone’s limit is different.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Lin Yun felt that his current strength had greatly increased compared to when he had just broken through to the fourth level of the Super Realm, and he even had the confidence to defeat two of his former selves, but he sensed that he was still far from the limit of the fourth level of the Super Realm.
Quickly, two months had passed.
Finally, Lin Yun felt that he had reached the limit of the fourth level of the Super Realm, but breaking through this limit was not easy. The saying “everyone below the Sanctuary is mere ants” might be somewhat exaggerated, but it also highlighted the vast gap in strength between those in the Sanctuary and those below it.
Then, three months had passed, and Lin Yun was still practicing without making a breakthrough.
“The realm of the Sanctuary represents a tremendous transformation. I wonder when Lin Yun will be able to break through…” At a distance, the True Martial Saint Lord watched the direction where Lin Yun was training and whispered softly.
“Difficult! Even in the outer great world, many cultivators who seemed extremely talented in their early days were stopped at this step, unable to break through for the rest of their lives. Even though Lin Yun has shattered this universe’s New Layered Heaven, thus greatly increasing his talent and foundation, it’s still uncertain when he will be able to break through…” The child furrowed his brow and spoke softly.
At this moment, it couldn’t help but feel regret again. Although Lin Yun had greatly reduced his consumption of resources when he reached the limit of the fourth level of the Super Realm, there was still some consumption. Compared to the resources it used to cultivate ordinary cultivators, this minor consumption was also extremely shocking.
If Lin Yun remained in this state for a hundred and eighty years, it would be a huge loss.
At this moment, it once again felt like it had fallen into a pit, and a big one at that.
“I don’t know about the geniuses of the outer great world, but Lin Yun is no ordinary genius. Moreover, the Origin Force he absorbed and refined from shattering a New Layered Heaven is also extraordinarily defying the heavens. Originally, among the seventy-two disciples of Grand Master Taoist Ancestor, almost half broke through to the realm of the Sanctuary. The earliest took a mere dozen years, while the longest took a few hundred years…” True Martial Saint Lord shook his head slightly.
He didn’t believe that Lin Yun’s talent couldn’t compare with the top disciples of Grand Master Taoist Ancestor. He was one of the top disciples back then, and at the very least, he believed Lin Yun was even better than himself.
Additionally, the Origin Force that Lin Yun had absorbed and refined far exceeded theirs, so Lin Yun would definitely be able to break through to the realm of the Sanctuary, and the time wouldn’t be too long.
“Hope he breaks through soon…” The child sighed and said.
Having already fallen into the pit, there was no choice but to keep going down.
Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, four months had passed.
One is in haste, two is to let go. During this period, some ordinary cultivators entered the Heavenly Principle Tower’s space. Aside from those who were expelled because they were determined not to be the reincarnations of the Heavenly Principle Tower’s spirit master, those with good talent were thoroughly trained by the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower in hopes of discovering the reincarnation of its master.
Especially the people who were with Lin Yun, at the request of Lin Yun and the True Martial Saint Lord, the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower wouldn’t send them away. Moreover, among the people with Lin Yun, many actually had quite good talent. As long as they weren’t too poor, the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower took special care to cultivate them.
During this time, many from Xia Qingqing’s group broke through to the Super Realm, including Xia Qingqing and Lin Mengmeng.
“What a pity, it’s not him again…” On this day, Lin Jianfei, Lin Mengmeng’s brother, had also broken through to the Super Realm. After observing for a while, the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower shook its head slightly and expressed its disappointment.
At this time, five months had already passed since Lin Yun broke through to the fourth level of the Super Realm.
Outside the Heavenly Principle Tower, the number of Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners was no longer just two or three, but all five were present. They were unclear about what had happened inside the Heavenly Principle Tower. Perhaps, they thought that it was about time for Lin Yun to come out.
By now, nearly half a year had passed since Lin Yun shattered the thirty-fourth layer of this universe.
Compared to the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower, the Netherworld, with its connection to billions of ordinary universes, actually knew more. They were acutely aware of how fast someone could grow after shattering a new layer of a universe.
As nearly half a year had passed, they too felt extremely anxious, fearing that Lin Yun would grow into a power they could not contend with.
