NOVPUBChapter 1166: 955 Chapter 1166: 955 “Indeed, just as I thought, I rapidly broke through the New Layered Heaven, and while my body didn’t have time to assimilate the Origin Force of the two worlds, the difficulty of breaking through another layer of the New Layered Heaven didn’t increase!” Within the spatial rift of the forty-fourth layer of New Layered Heaven, Lin Yun’s vigor fluctuated unpredictably, a mix of the bold aspiration to break through three more layers and a thrill stirring within, he silently proclaimed.
“However, breaking through three layers of the New Layered Heaven, despite my swift actions, still consumed a considerable amount of time. A vast amount of Origin Force from both worlds had emerged, and a lot had already been automatically assimilated by my body…” Lin Yun paused slightly, his eyes narrowing.
The Origin Force of the two worlds represented potential and talent, symbolizing the great fortune of Heaven and Earth, and was extremely precious. If ordinary Cultivators broke through to a New Layered Heaven and the Origin Force descended, they would most likely be eager to assimilate it, fearing any waste or that delaying might lead to unexpected changes.
Just like when he first broke through the New Layered Heaven of that spirit universe, the True Martial Saint Lord had been very concerned about his assimilation of the Origin Force.
Now, he was reluctant to assimilate this Origin Force from the two worlds so quickly. He only needed to delay it a bit longer, truly, how unpredictable life is.
As his body automatically assimilated some of the Origin Force from the two worlds, he distinctly felt the difficulty of breaking through to another New Layered Heaven rapidly increasing.
“Fast! Faster! Even faster!”
As Lin Yun ascended, he also concentrated on regulating his energy, his vitality which had greatly diminished due to the breakthrough of the three layered heavens, began to rise again.
“Break! Break! Break!”
Soon, Lin Yun once again reached the core pinnacle of the forty-fourth layered heaven, and at that moment, his entire being’s momentum was adjusted to a peak, and with the Blood Prison Sword in hand, he slashed once more while shouting loudly.
Actually, the forty-second layer of heaven had just been opened not long ago, forming only a small space; the forty-third was established on the foundations of the forty-second, making its space even smaller and the forty-fourth heaven… was even more so.
His reaching the core pinnacle of the forty-fourth layer was only approximate. This was far from having completely opened up the forty-fourth layer; he still needed to find some key areas to break through to the forty-fifth layer—a significant difference.
Now, he had to exert extra force as if trying to slice a watermelon, first cutting through its thick rind.
But time was against him; he had to break through the forty-fifth layer quickly, regardless of the cost, or else his whole plan would be wasted.
Once he completely assimilated the enormous Origin Force from breaking through three layered heavens, breaking through the forty-fifth would become exceedingly difficult.
Perhaps, even after tens or hundreds of thousands of years, even attaining the peak of the Peak Saint King Realm, might not suffice.
The forty-fifth layer of heaven, this was the last layer of a minor whole. With all previous layers broken by him, Lin Yun had a vague feeling that breaking through this layer would be invisibly much more challenging.
“Boom!”
A muffled sound.
There was not the sharpness of Lin Yun’s earlier sword strike that had pierced through the forty-second, forty-third, and forty-fourth layers, only a fine crack in space appeared, not nearly enough to break open the forty-fifth layer.
“No good…” Seeing this, a heaviness sank into Lin Yun’s heart.
The Origin Force he had just assimilated was already taking effect. Based on his previous calculations, he should have been able to cut open the forty-fifth layer with one sword strike, or at least two or three.
But judging by the situation now, he estimated it would take eight or ten strikes.
Eight or ten strikes… far too slow…
With a massive influx of Origin Force around him, every second his body was automatically assimilating that force, beyond his capability to stop.
As more time passed, the more Origin Force his body assimilated, the harder it would become to break through the forty-fifth layer. He might only seem to need eight or ten strikes now, but when he actually carried them out, he would find… it’s far from enough!
If he allowed even more time to pass, the difficulty of breaking through the forty-fifth layer would rapidly increase. This time, he might never be able to break through the forty-fifth layer again!
“I have to be faster! Even faster!” Lin Yun whispered fervently.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” In the midst of speaking, Lin Yun became like a madman, his Blood Prison Sword swiftly slashing at the space before him.
“Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!” The Blood Prison Sword buzzed and hummed, its blade emitting a dazzling, thousands-of-feet-long blood light, trembling incessantly, unleashing its maximum power.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lin Yun even incorporated a vast amount of the Power of Time into his strength, enhancing his attack power.
In fact, he had already tried and found that the Power of Time didn’t help much with breaking through the New Layered Heaven; breaking through needed absolute strength. Space power could be used, but the Power of Time was almost useless.
However, almost useless… didn’t mean completely useless!
If it were any other time, given the precious nature of the Power of Time, Lin Yun wouldn’t have been willing to use it to add even a bit more force, but now, he had no choice!
If spending most of the Power of Time could let him break through the forty-fifth layer, he was willing to do it!
He had a strong premonition that if he could break through the entire minor whole of the New Layered Heaven of the Netherworld, a tremendous change would occur in him, a change that could be greatly beneficial!
