Chapter 231: Supernatural Power Enhancement, Gold Can Buy Time
Strengthen your innate magical powers. This was the system prompt Lu Chen received after arriving at the sea of learning.
This is also the fundamental reason why Lu Chen did not rush to start fishing.
During this day and night, what Lu Chen was thinking about was very simple.
That is to think about everything he has learned so far, and compare the two innate magical powers to see which one would be most effective for him.
After thinking about it for a whole day, Lu Chen finally decided on the Three Inches of Time as his innate magical power.
Because for a long time, the incarnation of the outsider has relied on the outsider's sword to demonstrate the strength of this innate magical power.
But now Lu Chen no longer lacks means of attack.
Whether it is the Four Sword Domains, or the Sealing Heaven Sword Mountain that he later created by combining the Double Pupil Technique, the Sealing Heaven Monument and the Jueqi Sword Formation.
They are all very powerful offensive techniques.
At this point, the Outer Sword can still be used as Lu Chen's trump card.
However, the strength of this trump card cannot be increased by improving the innate magical power of the Outer Path Incarnation.
It can only be achieved through Lu Chen’s own cultivation and understanding of swordsmanship.
Therefore, after removing the special reason of the heretic sword.
The innate magical powers of the incarnation of the outsider actually don’t help Lu Chen much in terms of strength.
But the second innate magical power, three inches of time, is different.
The special effect of the four realms' innate magical powers is to reverse time.
The effect is that it can reverse five seconds of Lu Chen's own time.
This effect is undoubtedly huge for Lu Chen.
As long as the enemy cannot kill Lu Chen instantly, Lu Chen can be revived with full health instantly.
Although the activation of this magical power requires the absorption of a huge amount of spiritual power.
Moreover, after reversing time, it is impossible to recover the spiritual power that Lu Chen has already consumed.
But the existence of this skill is equivalent to giving Lu Chen a chance to resurrect in disguise.
Moreover, Lu Chen felt that the real effect of this innate magical power was not limited to this.
The truly terrifying thing about it is that it can allow Lu Chen to avoid the side effects of some powerful secret techniques.
For example, if Lu Chen took the "Blood Burning Pill", a special pill that could multiply the strength of a cultivator in a short period of time.
All he had to do was to reverse time at the fourth second and go back to four seconds before he took the Blood-Burning Pill.
Then he would not fall into the negative state of the Blood Burning Pill, which damaged his foundation and burned his origin.
In other words, in addition to being a life-saving talent, Reversing Time is also a very powerful trump card.
It gave Lu Chen four seconds to attack with all his strength without worrying about the cost.
Similarly, if this time can be extended.
For example, increase the original five seconds to ten seconds.
The time Lu Chen can burst out will also increase from four seconds to nine seconds.
This extra time undoubtedly further enhanced Lu Chen's strength.
It was only after realizing this that Lu Chen decided to strengthen his innate magical power, 'Three Inches of Time'.
Lu Chen stood up and came to the edge of the cliff of the mountain of books, which was only one step away from the sea of knowledge.
At this time, there were only two days and one night left before the completion of the entire academy.
And most of the people on the mountain of books have also left.
Although some people feel that they cannot survive the ocean of learning, they still want to give it a try, and therefore have already entered the ocean of learning.
Therefore, apart from Lu Chen, there were only two people left on the entire mountain of books who had completely given up on the academy assessment in their hearts.
The reason why they gave up the assessment is that they haven't left yet.
I am just curious about what kind of magical fish Lu Chen can catch from the ocean of knowledge.
Fortunately, Lu Chen didn't make them wait too long.
Seeing Lu Chen walking to the edge of the cliff, the two of them stood up and looked towards the sea.
Lu Chen raised his hand, and a special fishing rod made of spiritual power appeared in his hand.
It was obvious that Lu Chen had just released his spiritual power.
But the originally calm sea of knowledge has begun to surge.
Upon closer inspection, there were countless magical fish surging onto the surface of the sea, seemingly trying to be caught by Lu Chen.
Among these magical fish, there are some large fish that are more than ten meters or even dozens of meters long.
In the previous fishing trip in Xuehai, the largest "magical fish" they had ever seen was the magical dragon caught by the greedy woman.
That magical dragon was hundreds of meters long.
This was also the first time since the academy came into being that they had heard of a student being able to fish out a dragon in the ocean of learning.
They originally thought that catching a dragon was already a shocking thing.
But now, Lu Chen just took out the fishing rod, and the commotion he created before he even put the bait in was already no less than the commotion made by the mysterious woman.
Then, a terrifying idea appeared in the minds of the only two people on the mountain of books.
Could this guy also be able to catch a dragon?
Lu Chen had no idea what the two were thinking.
He looked at the turbulent sea and a fish hook appeared on the spiritual fishing rod.
When the two people on the top of the mountain saw Lu Chen's fishing hook, they were all surprised.
Because not only is there no bait on the fish hook, it is even a straight hook.
Although fishing in the ocean of learning is not the same as fishing in reality.
But can this straight hook also catch fish?
But soon, Lu Chen told them the truth with practical actions.
Straight hooks are not only useful for catching fish, but the fish you catch are also extraordinary.
As Lu Chen threw out the fishing hook, the already turbulent scene immediately became boiling.
Thousands of magical fish wanted to rush up and bite Lu Chen's fishing hook.
But not all fish can bite this straight hook.
Some small magical fish touched the fish hook at the first moment.
But this straight hook makes it impossible for them to bite the fish.
In order to compete for the only fishhook, thousands of magical fish began to squeeze each other.
"roar!"
Just as a large number of magical fish were fighting for the fish hooks, a roar came from the depths of the sea.
Then a huge fish, tens of meters long, jumped out of the sea.
Its huge size allowed it to easily knock away the small fish around it and rush towards Lu Chen's fishing hook.
But before it could move forward a few meters, many large fish of similar size to it immediately appeared on the surrounding sea surface.
Fish dozens of meters long, which were rarely seen in the past, now appeared together.
Although they fought with each other for the ownership of the fishhook, no one could win.
Watch these big fish fight to the death for a straight hook.
The two people on the mountain of books were so shocked that they were speechless.
At the same time, Gu Yue Zhenxian and Yun Zhonglu who were above the clouds were also watching this scene curiously.
Different from the unfathomable expression on Gu Yue Zhenxian's face, Yun Zhonglu had a look of confusion on his face.
Because it knew very well that Lu Chen was not fishing at all at this time, but letting the magical fish come to its door.
When others go fishing, they all wish to hang all their Tao rhyme on the fishhook, in order to attract as big as possible and have magical powers.
Only in this way can we ensure that they can awaken their own innate magical powers.
And for those who have awakened their innate supernatural powers.
The bigger the magical fish is, the more obvious the strengthening effect of their innate magical powers will be.
So I will try my best to catch a big fish.
But Lu Chen was very surprised. He didn't actually display his own Dao rhyme.
After all, Yun Zhonglu knew very well that Lu Chen was an existence that had mastered the sword intent of the Hedao realm.
He didn't even release the sword domain.
It means he hasn't put out the bait yet.
But even in this situation, the entire ocean of knowledge is still surging.
This only means that some of the Tao rhyme has been integrated into Lu Chen’s spiritual power.
This was something that Yun Zhonglu had never discovered before.
Could it be that this person is just like the girl named Shangguan Yunmeng, also a first-grade immortal?
Otherwise, why is his spiritual power so special? In the curious eyes of Yun Zhonglu, Lu Chen just let a large number of magical fish fight each other without any action, as if waiting.
Soon, the entire sea level rose.
A huge black shadow slowly emerged from the water.
However, the appearance of the other party made the entire school of fish quiet down.
It was a gigantic dragon, approximately 150 meters long.
It is much larger than the magical dragon that Shangguan Yunmeng had summoned before.
But the movement on the sea did not end there.
I saw a small island coming closer and closer, and finally stopped not far from the mountain of books.
Looking closely, that is not an island at all.
It was clearly the back of a giant sea turtle.
A dragon and a turtle were facing each other, and neither of them retreated.
In an instant, the entire sea surface was divided into two sides.
Even the two outsiders on the mountain of books could feel the depressing atmosphere.
If it were anyone else, they would obviously be ecstatic, but Lu Chen seemed very calm about it.
He didn't even look at the dragon and the turtle, but continued to stare expressionlessly into the depths of the ocean of knowledge, as if waiting for something.
And in the depths of the ocean of learning, two little fish are swimming continuously.
These two small fish are one black and one white. Although they are not big, each one is only about the size of a palm.
But unlike the dull eyes of the surrounding magical fish, these two small fish, one black and one white, are very smart.
Not only that, the two little fish, one black and one white, showed amazing agility.
They are clearly surrounded by a dense school of fish, but they are able to move freely among them.
Neither the dragon in the east nor the giant sea turtle in the west seemed to have any influence on them.
So they moved closer and closer to the fishhook placed by Lu Chen.
At the same time, Lu Chen, who was at the top of the mountain, seemed to sense something and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"When the time comes, heaven and earth will work together, but when the time comes, heroes will not be free. It's almost time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen's fishing hook hanging in the sea of learning moved.
The fishing hook kept sinking, and the surrounding magical fish began to get excited when they saw this.
Among this group of magical fish, the two small black and white fish seemed to have sensed something in advance and swam slowly towards a certain direction.
No one noticed the two little fish.
The same is true for the dragon and the turtle.
But just as the dragon and the turtle were confronting each other, fighting for the ownership of the fishhook.
It was as if the fishhook knew in advance that the black and white fish would arrive in a certain direction.
When the two small fish just arrived at a certain sea area, they took the opportunity to bite them.
The next second, Lu Chen pulled the rod hard.
Looking at the two small fish, one black and one white, caught by Lu Chen.
The two people on the top of Shushan Mountain were stunned.
Because they didn't expect Lu Chen to catch two such small fish.
You must know that among the magical fish in the ocean of knowledge, the smaller their size, the less magical power they contain.
The two magical fish, which were only the size of a palm, were not even as big as the scales of the magical dragon not far away.
They couldn't understand why Lu Chen would leave a dragon and a giant sea turtle alone and choose these two ordinary-looking little fish instead.
But there are people who can understand what they cannot understand.
Above the clouds, seeing Lu Chen catching these two small fish, Gu Yue Zhenxian said with emotion: "Even the fish of reincarnation and life and death can be caught. No wonder Fairy Taiyin is so secretive about it. I think this person is the variable of this great world."
After that, Gu Yue Zhenxian touched the deer in the cloud beside him and said, "Little deer, the time left for you and me is running out. You have been playing for so many years, it is time to think about your future."
"In this great world, even immortals can't stay out of trouble. You should make decisions on some things."
"However, it's up to you to decide how to do it. After all, you have to walk your own path. Others can't interfere. Think about it carefully."
Yun Zhonglu's eyes had a complicated look and he soon fell into deep thought.
At this time, Lu Chen below was looking at the two small fish in front of him with satisfaction.
[Reincarnation Fish of Life and Death (Life/Death)]
[Rank: Unknown]
[Effect: Can strengthen time-related innate magical powers]
White fish represents life and black fish represents death.
Life and death, intertwined with each other, just represent a cycle.
Not only that, Lu Chen also saw a Taoist rhyme similar to "Tai Chi Liang Yi" from this reincarnation fish of life and death.
Therefore, rather than saying that these are two fish, it is better to say that they are actually one fish with two forms.
They are a whole.
[Do you want to absorb the magical power of the reincarnation fish and strengthen your innate magical power - Three Inches of Time? ]
Looking at the information that appeared on the game panel, Lu Chen chose yes without hesitation.
[Your innate magical power, Three Inches of Time, is being strengthened...]
[You have gained a new talent, reincarnation time]
[Innate magical power: Reincarnation time]
[Grade: Four Realms]
[Effect: After using, you can predict the target's situation 10 seconds in the future. The greater the difference in cultivation level and the more targets there are, the more spiritual power is required to maintain the use of the magical power. ]
[Special Effect: Reversal of Time: Can reverse five seconds of time, returning the body to the state five seconds ago. Spiritual power cannot be restored. At the same time, experience points can be used to purchase additional reversal of time. 100,000 experience points can purchase 1 second of reversal of time.]
[Note 1: The price of reversing time changes with the level of cultivation]
[Note 2: The Five Realms Divine Powers can only be awakened if certain conditions are met]
Compared with the three inches of time at the beginning, the reincarnation time has only an additional effect similar to "an inch of gold can buy an inch of time".
But it is this effect that has brought about a qualitative change in this innate magical power.
Is it expensive to buy 1 second of reversal time with 100,000 experience points?
It’s not expensive.
Because this one second of reversal is, in a sense, enough to save lives.
Time is money, and money can’t buy time.
The innate magical power of reincarnation time gave Lu Chen the means to buy time with every inch of gold.
This is something that many people dream of, but cannot obtain.
With this innate magical power, Lu Chen felt that his strength had increased by at least 50%.
Because as long as he is not killed instantly, no matter how seriously injured he is, he can recover instantly.
Lu Chen has difficulty describing the value of such a gifted magical power in words.
The most important thing is that this innate magical power will still be useful even if he becomes an immortal in the future.
Its value is difficult to estimate.
And as his innate magical powers were strengthened, there was no need for Lu Chen to stay in the Book Mountain any longer.
Lu Chen stood up, and two spirit fish, one black and one white, connected with each other, forming a special Tai Chi diagram that appeared behind him.
Then he took a step forward, and a flying sword immediately dragged his body towards the sea of learning.
Looking at Lu Chen flying out of the Book Mountain on his sword, the two people who were still on the top of the mountain showed envious expressions.
Being able to fly with a sword over the Sea of Learning meant that Lu Chen had already been recognized by the Sea of Learning.
From the very beginning, what limits candidates from being trapped in the ocean of learning is never the "boundless ocean" but whether they can "apply what they have learned".
If they cannot "apply what they have learned", then even if they leave the mountain of books, they will just be trapped in the ocean of knowledge.
But to be able to 'apply what you have learned', the way to cross the ocean of learning depends entirely on the candidates themselves.
After all, at this level, the ocean of learning is no longer boundless for them, but finite.
The Tai Chi diagram that appeared behind Lu Chen meant that he had learned something from the ocean of knowledge and was able to apply it.
Therefore, it doesn't matter whether he swims across the sea of learning on the magical fish or flies across the sea of learning on a sword.
At this moment, Lu Chen seemed to have just entered the sea of learning, but he actually had one foot halfway on the other side.
Only one day left until the academy exam?
One day is enough.
In the sky, after flying on the sword for a while, Lu Chen saw a huge island floating above the sea of knowledge in the distance.
On the stone tablet on the island, there were two words written... Penglai.
And here is the 'other side' of the ocean of learning and the end point of the assessment.
PS: I’m asking for monthly tickets every day!
