Racing along the river path, a one-kilometer journey.

  Li Yuan soon arrived at the foot of a high mountain.

  The huge mountain wall is like a war knife cutting down horizontally, and there are almost no plants growing on the mountain wall.

  At a height of about forty or fifty meters above ground level, an entrance to a cave can be vaguely seen.

  This is Li Yuan's recently discovered 'natural closed retreat paradise'.

  Whoosh! Li Yuan lightly leaped, his entire body like a monkey, swiftly treading on the protruding stones on the mountain wall, rapidly ascending, and in an instant, he darted into the cave.

  The entrance of the cave is not large, about 2-3 meters high and 4-5 meters wide, but inside it's quite spacious, extending dozens of meters deep. Except for some dust and gravel, it's relatively clean.

  "It's just here." Li Yuan's gaze swept around, his spiritual energy fully sensing, confirming that there was no other life.

  Arriving at a deeper part of the cave, he sat down cross-legged with a thud.

  "Source energy enters the body." Li Yuan's mind quickly calmed down, striving to enter a state of 'unity with heaven and man', while abandoning his suppression of the spiritual palace.

  Next moment.

  Rumbling ~ Star Pulse began to rotate on its own, and the endless source of power surged frantically into Li Yuan's body.

  Surging and heaving.

  The pure and mighty surge of energy was at least ten times stronger than the second time, causing Li Yuan's body to feel an astonishing pressure on that perfect star pulse.

  "What kind of pure Origin Force is this?" Li Yuan held his breath, and even he was slightly shocked in his heart.

  Fortunately, Li Yuan's spiritual power was much stronger than last time when Yuan Li entered his body, otherwise it would have been difficult to control for a while.

  "Evolution of life."

  "Body." Li Yuan's mind stirred, and with his current spiritual power, he could sense that in the second layer of the Spiritual Palace, a wisp of golden mist suddenly appeared out of thin air.

  The mist drifted down the stairs and surged into the ground floor of the Temple of Mind... In fact, it surged into Li Yuan's body, limbs and bones.

  "This golden mist should be a strange power." Li Yuan secretly said, "If they didn't merge into my body, I wouldn't have been able to digest such a massive amount of source energy in an extremely short period of time."

  Li Yuan has now become a level 6 member of Xinghuo Wudian and his database access rights have been increased.

  He also inquired about many treasures of spiritual world and physical quality improvement.

  Although no information about the Spiritual Temple was found.

  But he also had many speculations based on various materials.

  "Normally, the source of power guides the whole body, and the muscles, bones, blood, and flesh cannot be quickly absorbed." Li Yuan thought silently.

  Just like people eating, when they are full, they can't eat anymore.

  Like Li Yuan's cultivation of "All-Heaven Star River Map" or other warriors' cultivation methods, the physical quality that can be improved every day is limited... The improvement of technical boundaries and the excavation of physical potential are, in a sense, making the amount of food increase.

  But everything has its limits.

  And some of the finest treasures that can greatly enhance one's physical quality in a very short period of time are those that fundamentally transform the body.

  It is extremely rare and expensive.

  Undoubtedly, the 'Source Entry' brought by the Spiritual Temple is not about guiding the source, but rather that this mysterious 'Golden Mist' can digest such a large amount of source.

  Rumble...

  Li Yuan's entire body, including his muscles, blood vessels, bones, bone marrow, and internal organs, began to undergo a comprehensive evolution and upgrade.

  "【Your life level has been upgraded from 16.8 to 16.9】"

  "【Your power, by......】" A series of prompts flashed rapidly on the Divine Palace panel.

  This transformation originated from the source of power that merged into every part of Li Yuan's body, causing his body to undergo astonishing changes and constantly transform.

  This physical evolution is a comprehensive reorganization of the body's muscles, bones and blood, which will bring pain, but with Li Yuan's spiritual strength, it can be easily endured.

  Moreover

  Most of Li Yuan's attention was not on his physical transformation, and his main consciousness had already entered the Spiritual Palace, where his consciousness body had arrived at the second layer.

  Buzz buzz

  In the vast palace, Li Yuan sensed the golden mist that was constantly emerging from the void.

  "Before, I thought these mists were a part of the Spiritual Palace itself, always present in the second layer." Li Yuan's expression turned contemplative: "But now that I think about it, it seems not entirely so."

  "Could it be that this golden mist is some kind of 'life soul substance' captured by my Heart Spirit Palace through some mysterious means after I killed those alien tribes?" A sudden thought flashed through Li Yuan's mind.

  After careful consideration, it seems quite reasonable.

  This perfectly explains why the effect of the first source power to the third source power has been soaring... because the alien tribes killed by Li Yuan are getting stronger and more numerous.

  "But why can only kill foreigners?" Li Yuan also had doubts in his heart: "And when I investigated the human martial artists, there was no hint of obtaining spiritual nourishment."

  At least, Li Yuan was still unclear about the judgment standards of the Spiritual Temple.

  "Let's begin." Li Yuan's consciousness stirred, and in that vast expanse of misty air, a small portion immediately separated out.

  Fell on Li Yuan's consciousness body.

  Boom!

  In an instant, Li Yuan's consciousness became dull and hazy, just like the first time he had experienced it. The spiritual world around him had transformed into an endless dark space.

  "Destiny Star Space." Li Yuan's spiritual power is no longer what it used to be, but his consciousness remains clear.

  Vast and boundless starry space, a faint strip of stardust twinkles in the endless darkness.

  That was the 'Star Pulse' awakened by Li Yuan, with more than a million life stars shining brightly, enough to bring a little light to the mortal world.

  Buzz~

  A thread of starlight emerged from the depths of the dark universe and shone over, quietly nourishing Li Yuan's heart and soul.

  "【Your soul has been nourished, your spiritual power has increased from level 27.0 to level 27.1】"

  Li Yuan's mental strength also began to transform and rise.

  ……

  When Li Yuan's power surged into his body and his strength underwent a transformation.

  Blue Star Summer Country, Kunlun Wu Da, it's already January 14th in the morning.

  Deep in the villa group affiliated with Liu Yuan.

  "Dean Hai, as you instructed, I will try my best to let Li Yuan undergo the trials of life and death." Lei Yang said with a slight bow.

  He just reported Li Yuan's situation in Ming Xiu Star Domain to Dean Hai.

  "Uh-huh."

  "A highly valuable, possibly existing treasure that could attract him." Dean Hai said calmly: "Li Yuan's personality is extremely family-oriented, he wants to recover his uncle's body as soon as possible and will not easily give up this opportunity."

  "Dean."

  "Are we being too hasty? A normal life-and-death struggle is already a test, no need to let him take this risk."

  "What risk? Are you worried he'll encounter a second-class alien?" Dean Hai said calmly.

  "Li Yuan's strength is not bad, but if he encounters a second-tier alien, even with protection in the dark, it would be extremely dangerous." Li Yang shook his head and said: "In the Star Realm, death often lies just a line away. Protection has its limits, and at critical moments, it may not arrive in time."

  He was a bit crazy when he trained Li Yuan, but actually quite rational.

  Won't really take big risks.

  "The road is his own choice."

  "He was educated for over a decade, and the general education courses taught him all sorts of knowledge within the starry sky. The source power battle uniform was given to him, as well as life-saving items... The possible dangers were also told to him, whether or not he goes is up to his own choice." Dean Hai said calmly: "Regardless of the outcome being good or bad, he has to bear it himself, making a choice and facing the consequences that come with it is also a kind of spiritual tempering."

  "What if something unexpected happens?" Li Yang hesitated.

  "If his choices exceed what he can handle, it means that despite the previous training, he still hasn't truly grown up." Principal Hai said calmly: "Can't take the grind, then die."

  Li Yang was shocked and stared at Dean Hai.

  Is it just death?

  That's almost certainly a once-in-a-lifetime genius of flying fairy level.

  "This cultivation process is not just my decision, but a consensus among the higher-ups of human civilization." Principal Hai said in a low voice: "It's precisely because he has enough potential that the tempering will be even more ruthless."

  "You need to understand."

  "For a genius like him, the highest level of expectation is not for him to become a Flying Immortal, as the fate of human civilization does not depend on whether he becomes a Flying Immortal... but rather that he can surpass even the Flying Immortals." Principal Hai said slowly.

  "Beyond Flying Heaven?" Li Yang held his breath.

  Those who exist, each one is the highest level of human civilization.

  "Just like the emperors of old, many were clever in their youth." Principal Hai said calmly: "But born and raised in the depths of the palace, brought up by women's hands... most are mediocre and even become muddle-headed."

  "Why? It's because the environment is too comfortable!! Since ancient times, those who have achieved great success, which one of them has not endured countless hardships, only then can their temperament and willpower be transformed, and ultimately achieve success."

  "First impressions are often temporary."

  "Polishing tomorrow is what matters most."

  "With Li Yuan's talent, he can indeed become a top-notch cultivator step by step, but then what? Should we try to temper him again at that time?"

  "It takes ten or twenty years to cultivate a child's character, why wait until they are thirty years old to start cultivating it?" Principal Hai shook his head.

  "For those at the top, if they are truly talented, they wouldn't be so concerned."

  "But for a rare talent like Li Yuan, in the process of cultivation, nine out of ten would be ground to death."

  "As long as one is polished and becomes an existence that transcends the heavens, the death of nine would be worthwhile, it would be a success." Principal Hai solemnly said: "Besides, everything has been secretly guided, for such extraordinary talents, we wouldn't force them."

  "If he didn't take the initiative himself and just sought stability, no one would have pressured him."

  "I understand." Li Yang nodded.

  He understood what Dean Hai meant.

  For the once-in-a-lifetime genius, all kinds of resources for human civilization are top-notch, and all kinds of protective measures will also be done to the best... but at the same time, they will also lead them to accept a large number of dangerous tests.

  Survived in the end, made it through.

  It is even easier to achieve great success.

  Compared with giving birth to 100 flying warriors, human civilization at a higher level hopes to give birth to an existence that transcends the flying sky.

  ……

  Bright Star Boundary

  About 900 kilometers from the No. 3 outpost base, there is a place called 'Fei She Gu' (Flying Snake Valley), which is actually a huge and narrow canyon that is shrouded in mist all year round.

  And in a secluded valley about ten kilometers away from this canyon, there are many Tianliang warriors stationed here.

  At this moment, the entire camp was quiet, and all the Tianliang tribe warriors looked at a distance with a hint of fear.

  Peng

  Accompanied by a long whip cracking, heavy lashes landed on the half-kneeling majestic figure.

  "Rubbish! Rubbish!"

  "Can't even complete such a simple task and now all your teammates are dead? You're the only one who came back alive?"

  "Why don't you just die outside?" A youth in a blood-red robe spoke with an icy tone, his eyes burning with anger.

  All warriors of the Tianliang tribe did not dare to make a sound.

  Within the Tianliang clan, the hierarchy is extremely strict. As core disciples of the sacred land, they have almost absolute power over these ordinary warriors, with the ability to decide their life and death.

  Crack! Another whip lash landed heavily on the half-kneeling figure of the burly man 'Logan'.

  Left behind a visible trail of terrifying bloodstains.

  Logan was covered in blood.

  "General Blood, I was indeed wrong." Logan lowered his head and gritted his teeth: "But I will risk my life to come back alive, not because I'm afraid of death, but because I want to bring news back to you, sir, so that you won't be caught off guard."

  "So I should thank you instead?" The youth in the crimson cloak sneered with rage.

  "I dare not." Logan lowered his head, gritting his teeth in pain and continued: "This time, I have a reason for my defeat... In the end, I was defeated by that seven-star human genius."

  He described the whole process.

  "Special Origin Force Battle Clothes? 17th level four-stage mastery? Indeed, a first-rate genius of the Seven-Star Human Civilization." The blood-robed youth's eyes flashed with a cold light: "You've finally brought some good news."

  "What a pity."

  "He is within the territory of the Seven Star Human's power, I cannot risk going to hunt him down." The Blood Robe Demon Youth's eyes were icy cold: "Prepare to retreat."

  "Abandoning plans for Flying Snake Valley."

  "Retreat?" The robust and majestic Logan was shocked.

  "What if we don't retreat?" The blood-robed youth glared at him with an icy tone, "You bunch of trash, not only did you fail to intercept and kill those Seven-Star human warriors, but you also exposed so many of us."

  "The Seven Star Humans are not fools, they will probably guess that there is treasure in the Flying Snake Valley, and it's possible that Yuan Wu Zhe will come." The blood-robed youth said coldly: "Do you want to go to war with Yuan Wu Zhe?"

  The burly man Logan didn't dare speak.

  Are you going to war with Minamoto no Tsuna? Once he arrives, except for Chūshin, probably no one can withstand three moves.

  "Logan."

  "I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself, take the remaining troops and stay in Flying Snake Valley to monitor." The young man in the bloody robe said coldly.

  "Three days' time!"

  "If we still can't find any trace of the Seven-Star humans, I'll lead the team back again and continue with the plan."

  Logan was taken aback.

  Once the Seventh Star human fleet arrives, isn't it certain death?

  But he didn't dare refuse because the current passive situation was indeed caused by his failure in the task.

  Soon.

  The youth in red cloak led most of the Tianliang clan warriors away quickly.

  Leaving Logan and more than ten warriors behind.

  "Hoping that the high-ranking humans of the Seven Stars wouldn't dare take the risk." Logan could only silently pray.

  ……

  About 100 kilometers away from Fei She Gu, time is passing second by second.

  After nearly eight hours, Li Yuan's consciousness was fully restored and he became clear-headed again.

  "This time the source power entered the body, it seems to have ended faster than last time." Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

  His eyes were full of serenity.

  "The third time the source power entered his body, the quality of his physique actually improved so much." Li Yuan didn't move his body, but he already felt the terrifying power contained within him.

  Much stronger than in the past.

  "My physical quality." Li Yuan's gaze flickered towards the Divine Palace panel.

  ——

  Life Rank: 19.0 (First Tier)

  Punching force: 50,200 kilograms

  Speed: 100.8 m/s

  Spiritual Power: 28.4 levels

  Willpower: Level 30

  Spiritual Awakening Degree: 30% (Current Upper Limit 30%)

  Stellar Vein: Level 10

  Mastery Boundary: Gun Technique (5th stage 6%), Body Technique (5th stage 7%), Fist Technique (Perfection)

  ……

  In just half a day, Li Yuan's life level had jumped from 16.8 to 19!!

  Fist strength increased by about one fold.

  "I'm ready now." Li Yuan slowly stood up, clenched his fists, and felt the surging power within him: "I should have the strength to surpass a primary source martial artist."

  The Tianliang warrior who escaped earlier?

  If they were to meet again, Li Yuan had a feeling that with his full force explosion, he could kill him with just one shot.
