NOVPUBChapter 1241: Chapter 992: The Balance of Power Chapter 1241: Chapter 992: The Balance of Power Two streams of Origin Force within him opposed each other, yet attracted each other, encircling one another, one Yin and one Yang, creating an almost balanced sensation. However, it wasn’t true balance, the Origin Force from the Netherworld was slightly stronger, while the Origin Force from the Bloodslaughter Universe was a bit weaker.
After all, the Netherworld was connected to a vast universe inhabited by myriad spirits, a grand world that could almost be compared to the great world of the spirits, whereas the Bloodslaughter Universe was but one of the countless minor spirit universes, not even ranking as a high-tier spirit universe. 𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖕𝔲𝖇.𝖈𝖔𝖒
However, on a certain level, the Origin Force of the Netherworld did achieve a balance with the Origin Force of the Bloodslaughter Universe.
“Perhaps it is because the Origin Force of the Bloodslaughter Universe contains the Origin Force from the great world of spirits, and the Netherworld’s Origin Force also holds some mysterious Origin Force?” Lin Yun pondered, thinking it might be so.
In any case, this balance brought about an earth-shattering change in Lin Yun. That is, the increased difficulty of breaking through the New Layered Heaven of the Netherworld seemed to have disappeared.
This meant that when he next set out to break through the New Layered Heaven of the Netherworld, it would be as if he were a newcomer – all he needed was to meet the basic requirements of strength, age, realm, etc., and he would be able to break through the New Layered Heaven of the Netherworld.
What astonishing news was this?
This meant that if this situation were maintained, Lin Yun might be able to break through the remaining twenty-seven layers of heaven in the Netherworld all by himself!
To singlehandedly break through dozens of layers of heaven in the Netherworld and almost monopolize all of the subsequent phases – how terrifying was that?
“It must be because the Netherworld and the Bloodslaughter Universe have both reached fifty-four layers of heaven… No, that’s not right. Before, when I upgraded the Bloodslaughter Universe to a forty-five-layered cosmic system, the Netherworld was also at forty-five layers, and this change did not occur… There must also be a reason related to the Nine-patterned Godhood…” Lin Yun muttered to himself. By the end, a realization flashed through his mind.
Indeed, it was because of the Nine-patterned Godhood!
The two streams of Origin Force could interact in such a way, precisely because of the harmony brought by the Nine-patterned Godhood!
Originally, it was also the interaction of the two Origin Forces that helped him condense the Nine-patterned Godhood!
Lin Yun felt a strange and indescribable sensation. Were they influencing each other?
In any event, this was a good phenomenon, a very good one!
With the increased difficulty of breaking through the New Layered Heaven of the Netherworld gone, at this moment, Lin Yun even felt confident enough to continue breaking through the New Layered Heaven of the Netherworld!
“Although I am only at the lower stratum of the Divine Domain Realm, my current strength is unmatched by most cultivators of the middle stratum of the Divine Domain Realm…” Lin Yun’s eyes shimmered with light, he thought to himself quietly.
Even before he had broken through to the lower stratum of the Divine Domain Realm, he could engage with cultivators of the middle stratum, although it was only by combining the power of his avatar, the strong supporting force of the Bloodslaughter Universe, and the momentum of its upgrade that he could do so!
Even so, the fact that he could engage with cultivators of the middle stratum of the Divine Domain Realm, despite all these factors, was an incredibly defiant act!
You should know that the gap between the ordinary Sanctuary and the Divine Domain Realm is more than ten or a hundred times wider!
Due to the Power of Time, an ordinary Divine Domain Realm expert could effortlessly annihilate dozens of ordinary Peak Saint King cultivators!
Of course, his mastery of the Power of Time and his combat experience from a previous life significantly narrowed this gap. But with his advancement to the lower stratum of the Divine Domain Realm, especially after condensing the Nine-patterned Godhood, he underwent a transformation that turned his power on its head, resulting in a significant enhancement of his strength!
Not to mention that he had now reached the pinnacle of the lower stratum of the Divine Domain Realm!
If he wasn’t aware of the vast difference between the middle stratum and the upper stratum of the Divine Domain Realm, he might even have the confidence to confront an upper stratum cultivator head-on without falling behind!
“However, with my current strength, if I were to engage with an ordinary upper-stratum Divine Domain Realm cultivator, I shouldn’t be in any danger. Even more, if I were to fight in the Netherworld or the Bloodslaughter Universe, I might be able to hold my own… Of course, it’s feasible in the Bloodslaughter Universe, but in the Netherworld, it only works if the opponent can enter the Netherworld…” Lin Yun felt a surge of strong confidence in the depths of his heart.
“Boom!”
Standing in the skies of the fifty-fourth layer of heaven in the Netherworld, Lin Yun casually made a slash, and a powerful sword air immediately tore open a massive spatial rift. At the other end of the rift, a supreme aura could faintly be felt.
“Indeed, the difficulty I face when breaking through the new layers of heaven in the Netherworld is the same as any ordinary cultivator. I can now easily tear open the fifty-fifth layer of heaven…” Lin Yun’s eyes brightened, but his expression changed, and he spoke in a low voice.
Although he could immediately, and potentially with a single slash, break through the barrier of the fifty-fifth layer of heaven of the Netherworld, he refrained from doing so.
The reason was that he feared that when he broke through the barrier of the fifty-fifth layer, the balance of the two streams of Origin Force within his body would be lost, and then the difficulty of breaking through the new layers would once again escalate.
“I must give this careful consideration…” Lin Yun took a deep breath.
The number of new layers of heaven in the Bloodslaughter Universe was different from the number in the Netherworld. He could break through the Netherworld’s new layers one by one, whether it was the fifty-fourth, fifty-fifth, or fifty-sixth layer.
But the total number of layers in the Bloodslaughter Universe increased by nines. It was currently at fifty-four layers; the next upgrade would take it directly to sixty-three layers, just as it had jumped from thirty-six layers directly to forty-five, then directly to fifty-four previously.
