Chapter 358: Gathering of Eight (1)

Translator: CKtalon 

In the cultivation chamber, Xu Jingming was focused on cultivating the Primordial Star Conjecture’s Light Rays. He had switched off all forms of communications, and only his family, Liu Hai, Director Zhou, and a few others could contact him. This also prevented the Third Prince from temporarily contacting Xu Jingming.

Xu Jingming held his dual s.h.i.+elds as his entire body turned into lightning that slammed in all directions with terrifying might.

His s.h.i.+eld technique rapidly transformed. Then, he tried sabers, swords, and staffs.

At Xu Jingming’s level, weapons were only an extension of his body, so it was very easy to cultivate them to a very high level.

As expected of one of the entire cosmic human race’s three strongest legacies. Xu Jingming practiced for three days before finally stopping. He was filled with joy. He could sense the transformation in his body, and his understanding of weapons had undergone a breakthrough.

Xu Jingming opened his personal combat strength interface and saw that there was indeed a qualitative change.

Beam Transformation Spear Technique (Lv. 7 93%), Astral Spear Technique (Lv. 7 91%), s.h.i.+eld Technique (Lv. 7 90%), Sword Technique (Lv. 7 87%), Saber Technique (Lv. 7 85%), Staff Technique (Lv. 7 90%), Footwork (Lv. 7 95%),

Combat Bonus: 4300%

Xu Jingming was quite satisfied when he saw this data.

It was already an amazing outcome to have his actual combat bonus increase from 39× to 43× with his first cultivation of the Light Rays volume.

In the early stages of cultivation, it might only take a few years to go from 5× to 10× in actual combat bonus. But in the later stages, it might take hundreds of years for one’s actual combat bonus to go from 40× to 45×! People might even be stuck at a certain limit and never be able to improve further. This was because the further one went, the closer one was to their limits!

In actual combat, I’m not bad even among Lv. 8 experts, Xu Jingming thought to himself. The auxiliary AI is right; I have to put more effort into my mind.

Xu Jingming sat cross-legged and began cultivating the mental tempering method recorded in the legacy—Light Rays’ Visualization.

The Light Rays’ Visualization visualizes the Primordial Star! The volume focuses on light rays coming from it. Xu Jingming recalled. I previously received some information about the Primordial Star and reached the limits of my mind and consciousness. It’s not easy to visualize it in my mind…

When accepting the legacy, it was forcefully imprinted in one’s memory. There were no demands on comprehension.

Now, it was much harder to visualize.

The Light Rays’ Visualization was divided into 12 levels. In the beginning, one only needed to visualize a fuzzy form of the Primordial Star. The further one went, the clearer the Primordial Star one had to visualize! The information contained became greater and greater, and the pressure on the mind and consciousness increased.

The first six levels were the basics. Only by reaching the seventh level could one’s psychic force have a chance of stirring Cosmic Force and becoming an Origin lifeform.

One had to reach the ninth level to reach the threshold of a Lv. 10 expert’s mind. If one’s mind wasn’t good enough, they wouldn’t be able to reach Lv. 10 no matter how in-depth their knowledge was.

Only by reaching the 11th level would one have a chance of becoming a cosmic legend.

Only by reaching the 12th level could one meet the minimum requirements for the mind needed of a Paramount realm.

When Xu Jingming received the legacy, the information he received regarding the Primordial Star was limited! With so much information… he could at most cultivate his visualization to the ninth level!

As for beyond that? He lacked information and couldn’t visualize!

He could only wait to become an official member and accept the legacy again to obtain more information about the Primordial Star.

Primordial Star! Xu Jingming’s mental strength was doing its best to copy and outline the Primordial Star.

A blurry consciousness appeared in his mind, illuminating everything and tempering his mind and consciousness. At this moment, he felt warmth in his heart—there was no pressure.

About an hour later.

Second level of visualization. Xu Jingming continued sketching the Primordial Star. This time, he began to outline beams of light in detail.

As more and more light rays appeared, the image of the entire Primordial Star became clearer, but it also became hotter. It began to burn Xu Jingming, and all kinds of negative emotions appeared in his heart.

Uneasiness, pain, fear, despair, coldness…

I felt relaxed and comfortable when the pressure was low. When I’m at the second level of visualization and the pressure increases, all kinds of negative emotions arise in the mind. According to the description of the visualization method, this is because the mind isn’t pure enough! No matter how much pressure I face, I have to remain calm and indifferent, Xu Jingming pumped himself.

He endured it silently for two days before stopping.

The moment he stopped, he felt extremely relaxed.

I can sense that my mental strength has become stronger. Xu Jingming was very surprised. Mental strength was intangible, and it was very difficult to sense a slight improvement. The fact that he felt it so strongly meant that the improvement was significant.

The Primordial Star is really mysterious and unfathomable. According to the legacy’s description, one’s consciousness will collapse and die if they view the Primordial Star with their own eyes without reaching the 12th level of visualization! Visualizing the fuzzy form of the Primordial Star can temper one’s mind and consciousness. It’s helpful!

Xu Jingming stayed in the cultivation chamber for five days and gained a basic understanding of Light Rays’ benefits. He also became more confident about his future.

This was one of the three paramount human legacies, allowing his evolutionary path to be much smoother.

Perhaps I can really become an Origin lifeform in 500 years, Xu Jingming thought to himself. The greatest obstacle for me to become an Origin lifeform… is mental strength.

As for his physical body? Now that he had reached a 43× actual combat bonus, he was likely able to meet the requirements with some serious training in the future.

Conversely, the mind took a lot of effort.

Huh? Xu Jingming checked the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute’s database. According to the descriptions, in order to boost the mental strength of human evolvers and produce more Origin lifeforms, the Cosmic Human Alliance built a special virtual world—Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng World!
