Chapter 61: Things Born from the Heart

Above the clouds, Zhou Yan sat cross-legged.

The particles that should have been scattered now gathered under his body, supporting Zhou Yan, above the dome, as if parallel to the sun.

His eyes were lowered, looking down at the world.

As far as the eye can see, the scarlet curtains that stretch from sky to earth are not existing alone, but are enveloping every city of mankind.

Cut separately.

In every isolated city, struggles are taking place all the time.

"Isn't this quite capable?"

Taking in everything that happened on the surface, Zhou Yan shook his head slightly and sighed:

“You have to be forced to give up your cowardice and become truly independent.”

Within each curtain, the survivors tried their best to survive and fight against the "weirdos". Through training, not only their skills but also their mental and willpower were improved many times.

And Zhou Yan had already planned it.

Killing these 'weirdos' can gain some spiritual improvement and the gift of knowledge.

Fighting to support fighting will only make you stronger.

Finally, victory is achieved.

Zhou Yan had no doubt that once the trial was over.

With abundant resources and humanity's luck rebounding from the bottom, countless powerful practitioners will be born.

By then, even if the Galaxy warship arrives, it will only be covered in dust.

It's not like before, when he fed the child himself for several years but there was no improvement?
"It's just that these people have failed once again."

Zhou Yan glanced at the countless auras and said helplessly.

Contrary to what Wang Chao, Chen Chao and others saw, there is actually never a lack of vitality beneath the scars of countless cities.

The so-called dead fellows were just pulled into a certain space by him to sleep.

Wait for the trial to be completed, and you will be able to recover from the illusion of death.

Of course, the prerequisite is that someone can really complete the trial and achieve a true union, otherwise all illusory separations will become real.

"One trial is enough. Anyway, there will be enemies from outer space soon. We can use them to refine the spiritual will of mankind once again."

Zhou Yan’s purpose was to test, not to kill innocent people.

However, Zhou Yan was speechless at the incompetence of these people. They had clearly entered the era of cultivation and had such abundant resources and environment for cultivation.

As long as you work hard a little, you can develop both the obvious and hidden strength. If you have some talent, you may be able to achieve the elixir.

Why do we still die from those distortions and deformities born out of desire?
"Shh, be quiet."

Zhou Yan looked indifferently into the void.

That was the human destiny that had almost fallen into death and was about to resist. It roared in the void, instinctively moving its qi, trying to make a dying struggle.

However, Zhou Yan still held it down.

Having achieved the realm of Manifestation of Sainthood, his mental power could easily envelope a planet, even if part of his energy was used to maintain the blood-colored curtain.

But it is still easy to suppress the almost dead human destiny.

"In the Manifestation Realm, the condensation of the laws is complete. The next step is to gather more laws and practice them into the Great Dao. Then the Great Dao condenses and transforms into a godhead."

"Or you can take the path of the infinite avenue and absorb countless wisdoms into one."

While Zhou Yan was watching the trial proceed, he was also thinking about how to practice in the future.

In the end, these two paths, whether it is the godhood or the oneness of the great way, essentially aim to condense a carrier that carries the soul.

Maybe I don't have to take these two paths.

But it is about pursuing the essence of practice.

after all
Zhou Yan glanced at the laws he had condensed and smiled meaningfully.

Of course, doing so would certainly involve many difficulties and obstacles, but Zhou Yan did not care too much about it. After all, there would inevitably be disasters on the road of cultivation.

All difficulties, just overcome them.

Whoosh whoosh!
From time to time, figures flashed by on the dilapidated streets.

Several figures stepped out with stern expressions, constantly observing the surrounding environment while moving quickly with strange steps.

"This beast is getting faster and faster. There is something wrong with our estimation of its strength. We will act according to the alternative plan."

The leader glanced behind him and saw that the figure was moving faster and faster. He frowned slightly, mobilized his mental power, and conveyed the instructions to the team members:
"Everyone, don't hold back any more, speed up and lead these monsters to Shining Star Square!"

After saying this, he separated a stream of mental power and projected it into the distance.

"Yes!"

"understand!"

Everyone's expression remained unchanged and they answered in their hearts.

At the same time, his pace quickened, his strength surged and he constantly coordinated the operations of his body to move forward at the maximum speed.

Their team received a mission to lure a monster into a trap.

According to the leader of the camp, it seems that the purpose is to assist Wang Chao in studying the monsters and finding the weaknesses of these monsters.

Otherwise, he would not let his players risk their lives.

The monster is very powerful and has strange abilities to assist him. It is difficult to deal with him if you have the same amount of energy and physical strength.

Even though he was a transcendent being who had reached a state of meditation, he could not guarantee that he would be safe and sound every time.

“I hope you won’t disappoint anyone”

Sun Hao's face was stern, and anticipation rose in his heart.

Days like this are too cruel.

If he could go back to the past, he would do it at all costs.
Bang bang bang!
Behind him was a strange man who was dark green in color, about two to three meters tall, and had several symmetrical exoskeletons.

Its huge compound eyes flickered with faint light, absorbing information from the surroundings.

Each time it moved, it jumped in a peculiar posture, easily crossing a distance of dozens of meters and quickly approaching the human team in front of it.

With each rise and fall, cracked holes were trampled out.

"Hmm? You dare?"

Sun Hao was observing the battlefield all the time. When he saw the strange man behind him move and almost touch his team members, his expression turned cold.

Then, he turned around and used his fingers as a sword.

He swung out several air blades quickly, heading straight for the monster's face.

boom!
The weirdo waved his arms and used brute force to break the air blade. The airflow suddenly broke and dispersed, stirring up a large cloud of dust.

Then, the weirdo roared a few times in anger.

"It is indeed a mindless monster."

Sun Hao glanced at it and sneered.

The physical strength of these monsters is much higher than theirs, and they are unable to use mental power to hypnotize, kill with the mind, or perform other operations to kill.

It has inexplicable super powers, but its skills are terrible.

One of the methods commonly used by practitioners, the most popular one is Qi Blade.

It evolved from Gang Jin, which strengthens the manipulation of airflow, highly compresses the air, and then increases the lethality, which is extremely convenient.

It was this method that this weirdo, who had the same strength as himself and was probably at the level of meditation, could not use.

"Oh no, it's going to use its ability!"

Sun Hao sensed the heat rising behind him and his face suddenly changed.

He no longer had any reservations and immediately used his mental power to hypnotize the team members, greatly enhancing their physical potential.

Divide your mind and operate it yourself.

The speed, which was already extremely fast, increased even more.

Whoohoo!
Balls of flame shot out like machine guns.

The large buildings, cement bricks, and broken strong ground all melted at the touch of a finger, boiling up red liquid.

The monster's eyes were red and his exoskeleton was hideously distorted.

As it squirmed, it seemed to turn into a suit of armor.

Seeing that his attacks had not hit his target, he became more and more angry, and he even pulled out one of his exoskeletons and held it in his hand.

It looks like a long sword as a weapon.

Then, following the voice in his mind, he chopped down with a knife.

Wow!
The scorching air wave swept away instantly.

A blade made of flames broke through the air from the swing, burning everything in its path while slashing straight towards the fleeing Sun Hao and his companions!
"My life is over!"

Sun Hao swung the air blade again, but was instantly submerged by the flaming blade energy. He immediately realized that it was impossible for the team to complete the mission.

The remaining team members also looked pale.

But no one regretted it, as they knew the purpose of their trip.

As the heat was approaching, a faint sigh was heard.

"Thanks for your hard work"

Sun Hao was stunned. When his mind was wavering, a figure appeared in front of him. In the middle of the sound, he caught the flaming sword with one hand.

"Interesting, directly controlling the flame?"

Wang Chao felt the warmth in his hands and looked at the strange man thoughtfully.

These days, he has integrated the survivor camps within a dozen miles, mobilized all survivors who can fight, and continuously captured monsters.

After continuous research, some clues were discovered.

"It is clearly a monster created in the mind, but it has such a great impact on the qi and matter. The meaning is chilling."

Wang Chao crushed the flame in his hand and looked at the vigilant monster:

"But you are interesting. Do you actually possess wisdom?"

The monsters that have been captured in the past have all relied on brute force. Although they have intelligence, they are like children.

Only those strange people whose qi has reached the state of meditation, like the strange person in front of us, can have thinking comparable to that of normal humans.

No wonder human cities fell so quickly.

"It's really too much. How many people among billions of people can stand this kind of test?"

Wang Chao calmly suppressed the monster who was about to escape, and read all of his internal information, body structure, and thought memory.

Then he smiled bitterly and looked up at the sky.

He already understood the significance of this trial, but that did not mean he agreed with it. Such a drastic method was just to wake humans up from their laziness?
He casually mobilized the energy to annihilate the monster.

Wang Chao then looked at Sun Hao and his companions who were in such a state of disgrace and gasping for breath, and smiled:
"You guys have done a great job. I have already got a clue. Soon, I will be able to get effective measures to deal with the monsters."

"Thank you, I'm glad I can help."

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

The power of the group remains strong.

With a backbone, the survivors were immediately inspired to fight.

The practitioners formed teams and cooperated with each other.

Although the monsters were not suppressed, many people were able to lure the monsters into traps through cooperation and then kill them.

After Wang Chao began to absorb energy and provide certain resources for practice.

Many practitioners also began to improve their realm and had hope of counterattack.

"Break the curtain of a city, then connect the power of all cities one by one, and finally complete what you call the trial."

Wang Chao stared into the void with a serious look:
"I already know the meaning of the trial, but what is your goal?"
