The name Qi Jianming appeared only once. (Chapter 290)
He was the human supreme being who died in the great war between the human, demon, and monster races when Yun Shi began to take the second and third steps to become a supreme being at the end of the last simulation.
It is now nearly three hundred years ago. Qi Jianming is still alive and has already become a Venerable One. He is currently in the Supreme Hall, welcoming the newcomer Yun Shiyi.
That first sip... no, the fourth sip of hot soup deserves to be drunk by him.
You simply placed your hand on Qi Jianming's head and shouted, "Father Yun, bestow your blessing!"
[This increases his essential value to 101%.]
Before anyone could react to what you had just shouted, you instantly chose to return to your true form.
[Yes, the maximum duration of Return to Truth is one minute, but that doesn't mean it can only bring back the future one minute in advance. You don't have to wait until that exact point in the future. In fact, you can choose to bring back just one second in advance.]
It would just seem a bit wasteful.
"What a coward!"
[You returned to the moment your palm had just touched Qi Jianming's head, before you even uttered "Father Yun, bestow your blessing."]
"From now on, will we have to shout this phrase every time we perform a fundamental reward or punishment, and then return to our true nature?"
"You actually managed to sneak in some contraband using a method that no one could detect... You're really something, Eleventh."
Qi Jianming was visibly startled. Without any prelude, his aura suddenly surged, and his strength and vitality both increased slightly... He almost thought it was fake!
Even their mental state and thinking ability seemed to have become a little clearer.
"It's true! It's really true!" he exclaimed with elation!
[You nodded in agreement: "Brother Qi's potential is quite good; it can eventually reach around 470%. I encountered a powerful being in the lower realm before, whose potential was only around 200%."]
"However, I feel that this upper limit is not fixed; it may be able to increase further when breaking through a realm or under the influence of other factors."
"As for now—" you smiled and withdrew your hand from Qi Jianming's head: "If I wholeheartedly help Brother Qi improve his essence, it would only take seven years at the fastest to reach the upper limit!"
"At that time, Brother Qi's strength will increase more than fourfold, his lifespan will double and approach the fifth realm, and his talent and comprehension will also increase by more than half..."
[Your smile at this moment is damnably sweet in the eyes of many supreme beings!]
You are the most precious treasure of the entire human race!
"He went to work on the female-oriented channel for the 11th National Congress of the Communist Party of China."
"His laughter is like spraying ice everywhere."
[Next, the Supreme Hall will begin to promote you without any hesitation!]
Thanks to the powerful online propaganda of the King of Gold, Rehmannia, the news that humanity was hiding a supreme genius quickly spread throughout the entire Yuan Energy Network and to all major regions, main cities, large cities, and small cities of humanity!
For a moment, neither the demon nor the monster race could understand it.
They didn't attack all at once like they did when they killed Yun Shicheng, because that was an exception. In a normal Holy War, only at the climax would a super battlefield appear where dozens of Supreme Beings coexist.
They had considered another point.
[Build momentum in advance, instill the true king!]
"Is the human race preparing to create another king of the century?"
"But didn't they only produce one over three thousand years ago? With only a little over three thousand years separating them, given the human race's fortune and resources, is this a sign of a major generational gap?"
Actually, there are two ways to use Qi Luck.
The proper way to utilize Qi is through a "difficulty-reducing device," which is applied to a person in the form of an external object. During this process, Qi itself is not consumed.
[When it's on a person, it only greatly reduces the difficulty of breakthroughs; when it leaves a person, it only causes cultivation speed to return to normal levels, without affecting their realm or strength.]
[The fact that the humans and demons of the Azure Domain forcibly infused their Qi with the power of destiny to create Fifth Realm True Kings is a very abstract method rarely seen elsewhere.]
For such kings of destiny, "destiny" is an integral part of their realm, and a consumable resource—a drain on humanity's destiny, leading to its permanent loss!
Therefore, once one's luck runs out, it means they cannot maintain this level of cultivation and will drop in cultivation level.
[The latter method of use is clearly an incorrect and unorthodox approach. If it weren't for the two Great Kings of the Century, the number of Supreme Beings among humanity would probably have increased by more than half, reaching five hundred, including many Heavenly Supreme Beings.]
But the human, demon, and monster races... are too complicated!
[If we don't overdraw our luck to create a "King of Luck," then even if our number of Supreme Beings increases three to five times, and even if a High Heavenly Realm being appears, they will only be slaughtered by Fifth Realm True Kings!]
Even the weakest True King is more than three times stronger than you were at your peak as a Supreme Being. Compared to other strongest demonic beasts of the same level, those at the peak of the fourth realm, the difference is more than tenfold!
[The Supreme-level creature possesses superior vitality and survivability; even with a difference of four to five times, it's difficult to kill in a short time. If the creature is determined to escape, it could take more than ten minutes to defeat.]
However, a True King facing a power difference of hundreds or even thousands of times that of a Heavenly Supreme could truly be killed with a single blow.
Therefore, the three races had no choice but to either cut off their own arm to get a gun, or be physically healthy but unarmed and killed by a single shot from the other two races.
[You never considered using the Qi Infusion Method; you've always followed the righteous path—the Qi Blessing Method.]
[You feel that, with the gradual promotion, more and more of the human race's fortune is shifting towards you, and your leveling speed is also increasing.]
Without using any resources, relying solely on luck, it would take approximately three hundred years to advance to the mid-level Human Supreme!
[However, if we use the vast amounts of martial arts resources currently allocated by the Supreme Hall and utilize them slowly and efficiently, it will take thirty years!]
[If you waste resources excessively, you might be able to advance to the middle rank in a year, but 80% of the medicinal effects will be lost. These are all resources you need, and you can't bear to waste them.]
As for relying on nothing, without using luck or resources, and cultivating purely on one's own, it would take a thousand years!
[Considering your essence is forty times greater, it would normally take a newly ascended Supreme 40,000 years to advance from the Lower Human level to the Middle level purely on their own...]
[It seems exaggerated, but every one of those who can become a Supreme Being is a major beneficiary of luck and resources. If we disregard the Sacred Body, relying solely on their own secluded cultivation, none of these Supreme Beings present could reach the mid-stage of the Overlord realm; they would all die prematurely.]
Yun Shou: "..."
It seems that in the later stages of martial arts, one must rely on hard work and consuming resources to have a future.
Some advancements that normally take tens or hundreds of thousands of years to achieve through cultivation can be overcome in a few decades or hundreds of years by fighting desperately and competing for resources!
