Chapter 182 Selection for Project Enlightenment
After delivering 3500 drops of "Blood of Heaven", 192.5 trillion Destiny Points will be credited to Ye Yang's account within a week.
Ye Yang took a deep breath: "Everything is ready, it's time to break through."
The fourth realm of body tempering—Divine Treasure!
Ye Yang has already mastered the second level of the "Extreme Power War God Body" and can continue to climb higher to reach the Divine Treasure Realm.
The "Extreme War God Body" is essentially a core technique for body tempering. The second level can only be practiced by those in the Heavenly Bridge stage. Once fully mastered, all the accumulation of Heavenly Bridge stage experience will be completed, and one can attempt to break through at any time.
With only a few days left, Ye Yang will begin his advancement to the Divine Treasure Stage.
Three days later, Ye Yang had undergone a complete transformation.
Now, the three major paths of body tempering, qi refining, and spirit cultivation have all reached the fourth stage.
Although they are only at the initial stage, in terms of combat power, they can easily suppress fifth-level enemies and are comparable to sixth-level enemies!
Firstly, the "Great Void Refining Spirit Method" and the "Extreme Power Battle God Body" provide a foundation of 32 times and 18 times respectively for the soul and the physical body.
Secondly, it is because his understanding of the true meaning of the Great Dao and the laws far surpasses that of ordinary people.
True Nirvana will naturally enhance its ability to bear the Great Dao.
Although both are Dao Form stages, Ye Yang can bear several times the amount of laws that others can!
Moreover, the majority of the laws he gained from migrating from the Devouring World were the laws of the void.
As part of one of the four supreme laws, [Space-Time], it possesses the same amount of power, yet is far more powerful than ordinary laws.
In this star region, he can definitely rank in the top ten among fourth-tier cultivators, and may even be in the top three!
"There's only one night left. I'm just killing time anyway, so I might as well go back to the Devouring World and continue to comprehend the Serpent Bead."
Ye Yang smiled, showing no concern whatsoever about the upcoming recommendation and selection process.
The Enlightenment Plan selects 100 people every 300 years from among the hundreds of billions of new generation cultivators in the entire Immortal Alliance; it is indeed very rigorous.
But this applies to students from ordinary backgrounds.
Ye Yang is a "student with special talents".
The enrollment quotas for the Qiming Program are clearly defined: 1 to 5 students with special talents, 1 to 10 students with professional skills, 20 students with designated enrollment quotas, and the rest are regular enrollment quotas.
"Targeted training" means targeted training. The last three cohorts of targeted training students were all trained to become "strategists" or "dungeon masters".
If you have the potential to clear level 8 dungeons, you can apply for the "Dungeon Master" targeted selection.
Alternatively, those with potential for dungeons at level six or above, strong cross-world adaptability, and high combat power can also apply for the targeted student selection as "Strategists".
Specialized students refer to those with expertise in traditional immortal arts such as array formation, weapon crafting, alchemy, spiritual plant cultivation, and beast breeding; these are their channels for advancement.
The "Special Talent Student" channel, which Jili Daomai used to register Ye Yang, only has five categories of people eligible to apply:
A student with special talents in the four supreme laws of [time and space], [true spirit], [cause and effect], and [matter], as well as a dungeon master with the potential to run a level nine dungeon!
The law of void is a part of the law of spacetime, while time and space are merely differentiations of the law of spacetime—in the world of the Immortal Alliance Master, even this differentiation of laws has not occurred.
Therefore, Ye Yang would naturally be a student with a special talent in the [Time and Space] category.
Students with special talents, those with specialized skills, and those admitted through targeted enrollment programs all receive extra points, so there's no need to compete as fiercely as for regular spots.
After one night, a giant immortal ship arrived in orbit around the planet where the Extreme Power Dao Vein was located.
"Minghong, we can't be eliminated this time. We have to bring honor to our lineage," said Jianwo Zhenren.
"Understood, disciple will do his best." Ye Yang nodded earnestly.
"It's time to go. The immortal boat will only stop here for half an hour," True Immortal Zhushan called out.
Ye Yang boarded the immortal ship with True Immortal Zhushan. This immortal ship was specially used to travel between various Dao lineages and pick up and drop off those who had registered for the "Enlightenment Project".
Oh—the Enlightenment Project registration is all by recommendation. If you can't join a lineage, it only proves that you are not good enough and don't even qualify for the initial selection.
There was nothing that could be done about it. After all, the Immortal Alliance had too many people. After the Era of All Heavens, in order to open more dungeons, they frantically multiplied their population, and the number of cultivators also exploded.
Even if hundreds of billions of cultivators competed to see who was superior, they wouldn't finish the competition even if they did nothing for 100 years.
After all, although the Immortal Alliance has virtual reality technology like the Illusionary Immortal City, it doesn't have the ability of a virtual universe to simultaneously support a large number of online users in highly realistic battles.
To increase the number of concurrent online users, we need to reduce the realism. But if we don't make it realistic, the preliminary selection results will naturally be inaccurate. It's better not to do it at all. "There are at least a hundred such immortal ships in the entire Immortal Ship, transporting applicants. And each immortal ship has thousands of participants. They are all your competitors," said True Immortal Zhushan with a smile.
"I have comprehended the void and have mastered a technique called 'Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Mysteries,' which can be used for close combat, ranged attacks, and illusions, and is extremely powerful. I also possess a Time-Space Reincarnation Illusion Technique, which is even more powerful. I have no fear of them," Ye Yang said confidently.
The profound mystery of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals is naturally a combination of the understanding of the essence of 36 spaces and the spatial part of the second diagram of the "Cosmic Chaos Stele".
The 36 spatial essences are rare spatial insights that can also play a role in the world of the Immortal Alliance Master.
With the addition of the thirty-six Heavenly Generals' profound mysteries, Ye Yang's Space Devouring Technique has recovered to 25% of its original power.
As for the Ouroboros Art, it goes without saying that it is applicable in both worlds and remains Ye Yang's strongest technique.
Hearing Ye Yang's confident words, True Immortal Zhushan laughed heartily: "Good, good, good. Since you are so confident, that's good."
Inside the enormous immortal ship, there were not only thousands of participants, but also thousands of true immortals like the True Immortal of Pillar Mountain who had come with their descendants.
These candidates are all treasures within their respective lineages, and naturally, they are accompanied by True Immortals.
The true immortals, who are usually high above and rarely seen, can be seen almost everywhere on this immortal ship.
The immortal ship sailed through the void, and after leaving the Heng star system, it began to flicker slightly, initiating a spatial teleportation.
The void far from the Heng star system is not safe, but there are thousands of true immortals on the immortal ship, so naturally no one dares to provoke them.
Even the Void Cult would have to pay a huge price to attack such a celestial ship.
At least one temple protector doesn't have that much power—unless he wants to "return to the void" sooner and takes action himself.
"Hmph~ The sacred pearl, which forms only once every ten thousand years, vanished on that planet. It seems it was absorbed by our 'Holy Son'."
In the void, 12 light-years away from the nearest star, a goatee-bearded man silently watched the immortal ship slowly initiating a spatial teleportation, a cold smile on his face:
"Holy Son, you have entered the Enlightenment Project."
"With the Holy Pearl as cover, evading detection by those below the Heavenly Venerable level shouldn't be a problem. The real trouble is how to make contact with him. It's just a shame that 'Jia 40' died."
"You're so useless."
At this moment, a seductive woman beside her whispered, "Guardian, my niece has sent another message. Through that 374-8-
The dungeon master of FIE48 successfully obtained some research data from the Immortal Alliance regarding the 'Primal Strain'.
"Instance number 374-8-FIE48?" The goatee-bearded man raised an eyebrow and grinned. "Yes, it's all thanks to this connection that the Eighteenth Protector was bound to my side."
"Eighteen Protectors, what use do you have for these mushrooms? What are you tinkering with all day long?"
"Hmph, leak the information to the Eighteen Protectors, and make them come begging to me."
"Yes."
After waiting for a month, Ye Yang boarded the celestial ship, which then brought together nearly ten thousand participants from the local star region.
Next, we will travel to a special star system located in the Silver Core region, which is sealed off by the power of the four supreme laws, making it impossible to enter using a teleportation array.
Only special celestial vessels can be used to enter it.
The Milky Way's core region is the area with the highest density of stars and nebulae in the entire Milky Way galaxy.
And the place Ye Yang and his group were heading to was no exception.
"Good heavens! That's the Black Flame Star-Splitting Stream! An incredibly rare flow of law-based energy in the starry sky, capable of tearing apart a star at will—"
"That next to it is a radiant vortex that escaped from the white hole jet. It contains countless ultra-high-energy photons locked to spiritual energy. Even if a true immortal body rolled in there, all that would come out would be a skeleton."
"They collided!"
"Hey! You can't see a scene like this outside of the Silver Core."
Listening to the exclamations of the cultivators around him, Ye Yang squinted as he observed the changes in the outside world.
Because he frequently entered the White Hole orbit for cultivation, Ye Yang also often came to this Silver Core Star Region.
However, at that time, our strength was relatively weak, and even with a protective immortal ship, we could not go to places that were too dangerous or lacked large-scale high-energy spiritual energy filtering devices.
Therefore, such a celestial spectacle has never been seen before.
Of course, there are many other strange places that devour the world, and even in the already developed 'primitive secret realms', there are countless more magnificent and beautiful sights than this.
After all, the Milky Way is too small and too little in terms of space, mass, and energy.
As the immortal ship continued its voyage, Ye Yang suddenly felt a layer of 'membrane' sweep over him. In fact, he should have passed through this 'membrane'. He sensed a law power that was similar to the void, but with more 'real' substance than the void, which flashed by.
"Is it the spacetime laws of the main world? It's easier to study the laws of the void in the vast void of the universe, but it's extremely difficult to break free from the influence of the void and comprehend the spacetime laws beyond the laws of the void."
Ye Yang looked back, but couldn't see anything; the starry sky was still the same starry sky.
A few hours later, the celestial vessel came to a stop in orbit on one of the seven planets in the Hengxing system.
"Everyone, this is the 'Imitation Yang Star System.' Below us is the 'Human Spirit Realm,' which will be your base for the next three months of the selection process," said the person in charge of the immortal ship, pointing downwards. Immediately, the immortal ship's gate slowly opened.
"The Pseudo-Yang Galaxy!"
"It is said that this is an artificial star system built in imitation of the ancestral 'Solar System,' and the other six planets contain various kinds of knowledge, theories, technologies, inheritances, as well as samples of various ores, elixirs, instruments, and organisms."
"On the only life-bearing planet, the 'Human Spirit Realm,' lies a gene pool of hundreds of billions of galactic humans—a spark of civilization that can be packed up and taken away at any time—"
Clearly, many people knew about the information and began to whisper among themselves.
