"Hmm." Xiang Yang nodded on the other end of the Yuan Ying communication channel: "The Holy Body... this isn't unique to the Yuan Power cultivation system. According to my calculations, it's essential for the human race; it's based on the race's fundamental characteristics!"
"Just like the underlying logic of the demon race that you mentioned, Godfather, the Holy Body is an 'underlying characteristic' that inevitably arises when a human pushes their aptitude to its limit!"
Yun Shou: "..."
You suddenly feel a little panicked. Could this mean that humans are also "artificial beings"?
In this extraordinary world, or rather, this extraordinary universe, is humanity perhaps like the clay figures created by Nuwa, neither belonging to the "innate divine" nor to the "natural species"?
Or is it that only the Yuantian Realm is like this?
After all, according to the teachings of that magical continent, those at the third realm could detach themselves from their own world and freely roam the sea of planes...
[In the Primordial Heaven Realm, one needs to reach the seventh realm to transcend the world; the difference between these realms is more than billions of times greater!]
You hadn't thought too much about it before, because you felt this world was too advanced, but now that you think about it...
[Has the transcendent Yuantian Realm of the Seven Realms of Beichen Guang truly left this world, or was it simply a case of fish being caught when they were ripe, with the human race merely a disguised form of demon (soldier race)?]
[Bei Chenguang said he would return, but more than a thousand years have passed. Is he stuck in a high-level map and unable to escape, or has he already died?]
"There is a method of verification... but it will have to wait until seven hundred years later, when the Sea Soul Continent, which has wizards and sorcerers, is merged into it. They are a human race from outside the Yuan Tian Realm."
You thought of the sorcerer class that could transform into beasts, then hesitated: "Uh, I guess they'd be considered human?"
"Never mind, let's wait until the Sea Soul Continent is merged, then we'll see if the human race there still has the concept of the Holy Body."
"The last simulation didn't reveal any relevant information either..." You desperately hope that those humans also possess sacred bodies.
[Only humans in the Yuantian Realm possess the Sacred Body, indicating that the Yuantian Realm is special, possibly a breeding world created by beings at the eighth or ninth realm!]
If this also exists elsewhere, it means that the "human race possesses a sacred body" setting is extremely likely a cosmic-level concept, a rule that existed since the beginning of time. The mastermind behind it is at least a celestial ruler, a chaotic god or demon, or a controller of the Great Dao!
In that case, you won't have to worry about the Yuantian Realm being a prison, or the certain death of those in the Seven Realms.
"The Lord of Laws, the Heavenly Saint, the Great Luo Golden Immortal... those are too far beyond my reach." You breathed a sigh of relief.
[Year 3147.]
After nearly 150 years of drug use, you've finally reached your full potential, which is twenty times that of an average person.
You feel completely refreshed and fulfilled.
You're already full; there's no room for anything else!
"I want to break through to the Supreme Realm! I want to break through to the Supreme Realm!"
At this moment, you know that nothing is more important than becoming a Supreme Being!
"I've accumulated enough to become a Supreme Being. What I need now is vital energy. A top-tier Supreme Being like me needs to absorb more vital energy to break through than Bei Chenguang does. Relying solely on the limited amount available from the natural environment is definitely insufficient!"
"Taiyuan Crystal Hearts! The five I have aren't enough, I need fifty... no, a hundred!"
"Or perhaps other resources rich in vital energy!"
"Urgent!"
[You contact Qin Zhenhai, you contact Bei Chenguang, you contact Wu Huhu, you contact Ye Ranyi, you contact Yan Yingxue.]
[You contacted Dihuang, Helu...]
[You made a single call to the Supreme Hall.]
They all expressed the same point: "I'm going to become a Supreme Being, send me money!"
"Give me five Primordial Crystal Hearts to help me break through to the Supreme Realm. My small step will be a giant leap for the entire human race!"
[If you're too lazy to explain to everyone individually, just use multi-person communication to project dozens of screens from the Golden Spirit Mine. Each one represents someone you have a good relationship with, someone with influence, and someone you can trust.]
Kuang Yuan trembled with fear. He could tolerate the others, but what about Jinlings like Dihuang and Helu Si? Weren't they all his superiors?
[My God, His Majesty the Earth Yellow has actually appeared in my primal energy projection! His majestic image, in the form of primal energy signals, flowed through my motherboard.]
[And those twenty adults, they actually appeared at the same time...]
[If this gets out, Jin Ling would never believe it!]
[...]
At first, everyone was amazed by your extensive network of connections, but then they all questioned you: You're a half-step Supreme, someone who failed to break through once.
To become a supreme being again would be thousands of times more difficult than before!
(Just like the "pointed head" example given in Chapter 146)
Even if you've replenished your losses over the years with those hundreds of millions of battle merits, there's still that fleeting moment of inspiration. And for someone like you who failed to break through to the Supreme Realm, the probability of that moment of inspiration appearing is only a few hundredths!
An opportunity that once every thousand years could be stretched to once every tens of thousands of years!
In short: they don't believe you can achieve a breakthrough just by saying so.
Of course, lending you things is no problem, and giving you some is fine too. It's just that they can't imagine how you'll find the opportunity to become a supreme being. Are you suggesting you suddenly storm into the demon camp and start a fight?
[No, a fight won't do; we might need to maintain this life-or-death situation for years!]
We can't expect them to mobilize the entire human race to promote and publicize your cause, can we?
While that might indeed create a Supreme Being, it would be akin to over-exploiting nostalgia, and the damage to the entire human race couldn't be compensated for by just one or two Supreme Beings!
[Especially if even a half-step Supreme could succeed, the price would be enough to create a Heavenly Supreme, or even a Supreme Supreme!]
You slowly began, "Now that things have come to this, I'll be frank with everyone."
Before I spoke, you glanced at the rehmannia root.
[The rehmannia root nodded; it understood your meaning. This communication must remain a secret from everyone else.]
"Then I'll just say it directly."
[Your deliberate, deliberate words gave these bumpkins from the Qingyu region a small, shocking glimpse of your overpowered abilities.]
"Back then, in the battle at the Flowing Void Heavenly Pool, I utterly crushed a Great Demon at the peak of the Third Realm. At that time, you all thought I had failed to break through to the Supreme Realm somewhere, which is why I possessed such power, but that's not the case!"
"Back then, I wasn't even at the peak of the Overlord realm!"
"How is this possible!" someone exclaimed from the Supreme Hall.
The others were also horrified. Given the speed, strength of your Yuan energy, and range of your spiritual influence you displayed, what kind of sacred body could possess such power?
Qin Zhenhai and Ye Ranyi both looked bewildered. They knew your Sacred Body was a Breathless Yuan Power Body, but did this kind of Sacred Body have numerical bonuses?
"Of course, it's the Battle Body series."
You hold up four fingers.
Someone exclaimed, "That's impossible! Even the Four-in-One Combat Body doesn't..."
"It is the Forty-Three Complete Battle Form."

(Sixth update, I've reached the level of becoming a Venerable One (?′ω`? ))
