In a world of pure martial arts, Yun Shou initially believed he could only live an ordinary life with the weak cheat he possessed.
That was until the age of fourteen, when he obtained a secon...
This Mr. Zhang, the supreme ruler, looked at you with a hint of helplessness.
"Since you've said so, Venerable Yun, well then," he sighed.
[Then she looked at you with disappointment... the eleventh child in the middle, also known as your second child.]
"Humanity has only two beings whose essence is beyond the norm, but one is single-minded, while the other, although resolutely devoted to the great cause of racial reproduction, is... not good enough!"
Their hair is turning completely white from worry.
You shrug: "Taking too big a step at once isn't good either. We can take it one step at a time, gradually raising the fundamental limits of humanity year by year."
"If this continues generation after generation, one day the essence of the entire human race will be dozens of times greater!"
[Well, for those newborns who are born with 1.5 times or even more inherent qualities, you say you can also raise the bar for them!]
Even if their current essence has already exceeded its original limit, you can still add 10 more essence blessings on top of that.
[For example, if the original potential limit should be 2.00 times, but his parents inherited 1.8 times, then you can continue to bless him to 2.00 times.]
[If his parents passed down an essence of 1.91 times or higher, although theoretically his upper limit is only 2.00 times, in reality you can bestow blessings upon him at least ten times, reaching 2.01 times or even higher.]
This isn't about you guaranteeing your own value, for example, if all humans become several times more powerful and unable to continue bestowing blessings, making your supernatural abilities seem useless...
[Because the so-called inherent limitations are all fabricated by you. If you're in a good mood, you can quote the other party hundreds or even thousands of times more.]
You've only left a sliver of room for maneuver, maintaining the lie of "fundamental limitations" while giving everyone a chance to defy fate.
In 2930, you arrived at the Second Human-Demon War Zone.
[You didn't use your ten opportunities for freedom of blessing throughout last year because you accumulated them all this year, essentially giving yourself a two-month long vacation.]
Tell those people not to bother you for the past two months.
[Before this long holiday of more than two months began, you also had a confrontation with Shi Lan.]
[It's a real-life confrontation.]
But predicting the future will definitely be useful as well.
[Given his overwhelming numerical advantage, you were no match for him, but he was also astonished by your displayed strength and combat awareness, and agreed to let you escape his surveillance and act freely.]
You have arrived at the Water Spirit's Abode in this war zone.
[...]
After a month-long battle, Xixiqi was defeated by you. It was almost completely destroyed, and even its unique water spirit form disintegrated.
"Yun Shou, you're bullying a spirit!" it cried, aggrieved. "How dare you, a supreme being, approach a mere second-realm water spirit like me?"
"Good boy~" You stroked its hydrostatic head, adding a touch of essence to it.
"Huh?" Xixi's eyes widened. "What's going on? I seem to have gotten stronger?"
You laugh out loud: "Don't you understand? That's the power of the Supreme **!"
After the joke, you will reveal the truth, and also tell the human race this.
"Over the past month, I've conducted an experiment and discovered that while the Blessing of Essence requires the activation of human destiny, its effects are not limited to humans!"
"Other races, or rather, races friendly to humanity, can also enjoy the same essential blessings. This may be because their fates are already intertwined with those of humanity; they are intertwined."
[Xi Xi wept and interjected, "For the past month, Yun Shou and I were indeed like that, you were in me, and I was in you."]
"Quiet." You press its head down, giving it a taste of its own medicine.
[Gurgle gurgle~~ (Amazing bubble sound)]
[Wang Zhizun on the other end of the communication line: "..."]
What the hell are you doing while you're communicating with me?!
[Humans aren't enough for you anymore, now you're even going after water spirits!?]
However… even in his helplessness, the current master of the Supreme Hall, Wang Zhizun, suddenly had a glint in his eye.
"Can other races whose fate is intertwined with that of humanity also receive essential blessings?"
That would increase the room for maneuver, requiring further adjustments to their plans and policies.
"You always manage to surprise me!"
After the communication ended, Wang Zhizun sighed on the other end, "Since you appeared in this Azure Domain, in just a few decades, you have been bringing surprises to the human race."
[Blessings from the essence, secret arts of destiny, innate inheritance, blessings from other races...]
[It hasn't stopped!]
[Although these constant surprises have led to continuous changes in human policies—for example, the initial plan was to first allocate points to the strongest Supreme beings, but this was later gradually changed to prioritizing the rapid spread of high-quality humans across these seven hundred-plus domains.]
[Always taking one step at a time, changing course abruptly before completing a task, appearing careless and haphazard in some areas, jumping from one thing to another.]
[But overall, it is indeed on the rise, not in a spiral, but in a steady upward trend!]
In 2935, after more than half a year, when you emerged from Taiyi True Lake, the 25 Essence Transporters outside were speechless.
[You sighed too; Shui Ling's advantage in this aspect is still too great.]
[Now, your strength has increased more than three hundred times, which numerically places you at the mid-level Heavenly Realm, while the Water King... well, it's only one percent of your power!]
However, relying on their racial advantages, they still fought you for over two hundred days to a draw!
At the end, you calmly asked, "How was it?"
[The silent beach, which had been moaning quietly, looked up upon hearing this.]
【"good."】
"They've turned things around, oh well."
You're increasingly looking forward to its reaction when it reaches the fifth and sixth realms.
"Then it's my turn to say something average."
[It's worth mentioning that you drastically reduced the success rate of adding points to Shui Ling to only one-quarter. However, as the game progressed, the success rate increased, and ultimately, out of 42 point-adding opportunities over ten months, you added 20% to Wu Hu Hu's essence.]
[The other 22 uses were for taking potions to level up my character.]
"And also to get back into shape, right?"
After in-depth communication, you learned a lot about Wu Huhu's past.
For example, its old injuries damaged its very essence, preventing it from making any further progress in the two thousand years since its ascension to the Spirit Venerable level, and leaving it still stuck at the lower human level. (Chapter 168)
[When you inquired about the specific reason, after a moment of silence, Wuhuhu recounted the past of the Water Spirit Clan.]
[They are sea creatures. Two thousand years ago, they invaded a piece of the Water Spirit Clan's territory in the Endless Sea, and Wuhuhu suffered heavy losses in that battle.]
