Volume 4: Xuanyuan King Chapter 15: Title "Biyouhou"
Although Lin Yan's full strength could reach the king level, and it would not be an exaggeration for him to go to the highest-level combat areas like the "Star Tower", but... he could clearly feel that his potential had not been fully developed.
Therefore, they chose to stay in this Yanji Continent and began to undergo the test of life and death.
In these 23 years...
Lin Yan spent most of his time reflecting on battles, comprehending the laws, researching secret techniques, etc. He went out hunting and fighting hundreds of times, usually relying on the 2,300 times of the Realm Lord's power of the Mo Yun Teng and his own 220 times of the Realm Lord's power, without any other amplitudes, and fighting with this basic power of the initial level of a marquis.
This is to avoid having a too high foundation, thereby masking deficiencies in other areas, and to ensure the effect of training as much as possible.
In 23 years!
Lin Yan killed 64 alien marquises and 151 alien immortal military leaders.
At the beginning, Lin Yan only relied on 2520 times the power of the Realm Lord. Even if he could defeat those marquises, because of his immortal body, he had to burst out his strength to kill even the initial level of marquis. After some consideration, he did not use this method anymore, but used the toxin of the green line devouring worm clone to corrode the divine body of the alien marquis.
With the toxins of the green-line devouring worm clone, it is indeed possible to corrode the body of the immortal god Fenghou, but the erosion speed is relatively slow, so it is easy to encounter alien allies supporting each other, or directly self-destructing.
Lin Yan didn't care about it. Even if the enemy really escaped, it would not be a big deal. For him, training was the most important thing, and military merit was secondary. Being besieged was also an important course of training. As long as there were gains, it was fine.
Every battle is a fight of life and death!
If those foreign marquises relied on their "immortal bodies", they might not necessarily use their full strength, but because the poison corrodes their divine bodies, they naturally can only fight with all their might, even at the cost of burning their divine power!
Fighting against various alien races in the universe and different fighting methods also gave Lin Yan a deeper understanding of combat and he gained a lot.
In these 23 years, Lin Yan has made a name for himself.
With the realm of laws and the pinnacle of cultivation, it is enough to make up for the basic strength that only shows the initial level of marquis, allowing him to have the combat power close to that of king!
Coupled with the toxins of the green-line devouring insects, the 64 marquises he killed even included 7 at the peak of the marquis level, which is something that only high-level kings can do.
But... because Lin Yan had done some disguise, he could not be linked to the person who killed Kang Sha Hou. In addition, he used poison, so people on the Yanji continent passed messages to each other, and everyone knew that there was a "human pharmacist who was close to being crowned king."
The reason for saying this is that the potion that can corrode Fenghou's immortal body is very precious, but Lin Yan uses it without any scruples, as if it were free. And through their communication, they found that the corrosive effect of this potion is also increasing.
After all, it is self-produced and self-sold.
The green-line worm clone is formed on the basis of its own "toxin" secretion, combined with the original laws and some "pharmacist" knowledge, and is closer to the concept of "self-created secret method".
During Lin Yan's use, it was actually equivalent to an experiment, and it would continue to be improved and become more powerful.
As his reputation spread, he naturally got the nickname "Marquis Biyou" gradually. He was a figure that people feared in the Yanji Continent. Even... those immortal gods who were granted the title of marquis would rather meet the king than him.
Even if he is lucky enough not to die, he will definitely suffer heavy losses.
…
As "Marquis Biyou", Lin Yan has also challenged several difficult tasks during his years of training.
For example, when he was hunting down an immortal god at the peak of the marquis level, after the other party asked for help, Lin Yan was surrounded and even strong men from other camps were involved. His detector had already discovered him at that time, but he did not choose to escape.
A completely crazy fight!
In that bloody battle regardless of life and death, Lin Yan took a crucial step in the body movement "Nine Heavens", which was able to reach the category of "top level unique skills" and frightened those immortal aliens out of their wits!
After a continuous number of casualties and escapes, their joint encirclement and suppression eventually collapsed.
Another time, Lin Yan even encountered a powerful king in a battlefield outside the domain!
He was a first-level immortal king from the "Starlight Clan" of the Zerg camp. It was also the first time that Lin Yan encountered an immortal king in a battlefield outside the domain.
The Starlight Clan is an energy-type life form that can change into any form and is not afraid of soul attacks. They are a bit like the "Demon Killing Clan". They do not have the Demon Killing Clan's incredible talent of "replication", but they are born with the ability to condense a "Starlight Life Thread" in their bodies, which is extremely powerful.
Considering that the opponent was not afraid of soul attacks, Lin Yan lacked the means to kill him and did not want to reveal too much information, so he fought with the opponent with the strength shown by "Biyouhou", but was eventually defeated and had to flee.
Because Lin Yan's body movements were fast, the Immortal King considered that "Marquis Biyou" was at the peak of the marquisate and he did not have the ability to kill him, so he did not pursue him any further in the end.
In these crazy fights, Lin Yan gained a deeper understanding of "The Beginning of One Yuan" and discovered in battle that this secret method could not bring out his full combat effectiveness.
"I have been in the outer battlefield for 23 years, constantly fighting and practicing, constantly accumulating experience. Now it is indeed time to create my own secret method." Lin Yan's eyes were clear, "But... should I start with the warrior aspect or the spiritual master aspect first?"
For him, the reason why he spent so much energy on the two top secret skills, "The Beginning of One Yuan" and "The Movement of Celestial Bodies", was to wait until he had accumulated enough knowledge and then create his own secret method based on these two secret methods.
This kind of high-level secret skill is extremely difficult to practice. The entry threshold is hundreds or thousands of times more difficult than comprehending the essence of the law. Even if many kings are immortal, they may not be able to succeed in practicing it after wasting endless years.
However, for someone like Lin Yan to successfully practice, learn from the experience of his predecessors, and add his own insights gained from practice and fighting, is undoubtedly a great shortcut to creating his own secret method.
What Lin Yan is hesitating about at the moment is... whether he should conduct research on warriors first, or on spiritualists.
"Because of the secret method of "No Desire", I have a greater advantage in mental power and a stronger foundation, so my research on mentalists will improve my combat effectiveness even more."
Lin Yan thought to himself, "But... the Celestial Origin Wheel is an excellent telekinetic weapon. I can only perform the first move of Celestial Movement. There is no need to consider this now."
"Motion of Celestial Bodies" is divided into three types!
When the Lord of Dusk Star created it, it had the strength of a cosmic overlord. Later, considering passing it on to Lin Yan, it was specially to correspond to the 18th, 19th, and 20th levels of the Chaos Monument of the Universe, so that it can be barely used.
There really wasn't much point in him considering this now.
Lin Yan thought for a moment, and his heart was still more inclined towards the warrior side.
"Although both are pinnacle skills, there is a gap between them. The Movement of Celestial Bodies feels stronger to me, while the application principles of The Beginning of One Yuan are much inferior." Lin Yan has a clear feeling about this.
"Moreover... in terms of telekinetic weapons, I only have the Celestial Origin Wheel, and there is no better choice. In comparison, in terms of warriors, I will have the opportunity to obtain the 'Juntian Fist Armor' left by King Zhenyu in the near future!"
Juntian Fist Armor is a precious treasure!
And... from the situation of King Zhenyu, it can be seen that the threshold for using this treasure is not high. Only the "Xuanpin" at the level of Realm Master can use it, so Lin Yan is naturally no problem at all.
As long as he has the strength to defeat the peak Marquis, he will be qualified to obtain the "Juntian Fist Armor" and "Wings of the Void".
Compared with the increase in combat power brought by the treasure, the slight difference in basic strength seems less important.
"Hmm..." Lin Yan pondered for a moment, "Since I want to create a secret method, it must be at least the 'peak secret method'. This is not something that can be achieved overnight. By then, my understanding of the laws will most likely be further improved. In this way, it will not be difficult to reach the peak combat power of the king."
"But for now, I don't need to create a boxing technique directly. I'll continue with the sword technique. If the 'Juntian Fist Armor' is indeed suitable for me, I can make some modifications and improvements based on the original one. If it's not suitable for me, I can also find a way to exchange it."
He made a decision.
As both are close combat methods, in most cases, changing to another weapon does not affect the core of the secret method and only requires slight modifications. Since it is a self-created secret method, this is just a simple matter and does not require too much consideration.
After clarifying the route, the next thing to do is to spend energy on research.
Lin Yan has access to the knowledge repository of the Dusk Star Universe, and can freely search for secret methods to accumulate experience and broaden his horizons. In fact, he had started this a long time ago and is now very familiar with it.
Then gradually create your own secret fighting method.
…
Yanji Continent.
"Die." A boundless and powerful force suddenly erupted. With a swing and a spin, under the black sword shadow, the universe was like glass , shattered.
The short alien immortal god, who was about half a meter tall, was cut in half. The alien immortal god was originally relaxed, but after being cut and condensed into one, he suddenly became terrified because he found countless green silk threads spreading in his body, and his immortal god body had lost 7%.
"How is it possible? How is it possible?" The immortal marquis of the alien race was terrified.
"you……"
"You are...you are Marquis Biyou!"
laugh!
laugh!
The incomparably domineering black sword shadow filled with destructive intent flashed several times in succession, and the alien immortal had no time to escape, but just hysterically self-destructed... The battle was completely over.
"Whoosh!" In the aftermath of the battle, a figure in bronze armor floated in the air, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. He packed up the spoils and then left the battle site on a spaceship.
…
"It's Marquis Biyou!"
"Hurry up and call for help , everyone run away separately."
“Bang!”
Four powerful alien warriors fled frantically, and one of the alien immortals blew himself up.
…
Inside a cave in the heart of a mountain range on the Yanji Continent.
Three immortals of the Qiushi tribe sat on alloy chairs. They were between 1.3 meters and 1.7 meters tall, with dark red scales all over their bodies. The spikes on their elbows and knees clearly indicated that they were a warlike tribe.
There was no longer the madness and cruelty in their eyes as before, but instead they looked frightened. The atmosphere in the entire hall was depressing.
"But Roche is dead."
"Marquis Bi You, damn Marquis Bi You!"
"That human's strength is even more terrifying than the last time I encountered him, and the potion he used is also more terrible than before. My divine body has lost 9%. I don't know how long it will take to recover."
"What a bastard! How could a warrior who is close to the power of a king have such a high level of attainment in potions?!"
Warriors and spiritualists are the mainstream after all, while pharmacists are just a sideline. However, Bi Youhou has reached such a terrifying level in both warriors and pharmacists that countless alien races are terrified.
"Let's leave this extraterritorial battlefield first. This Biyouhou has such a powerful potion, which is even more terrifying than the king-level strongman. He is so rampant, sooner or later the military system will order the king-level strongman to kill him!"
"When our divine bodies recover and we come back, this Biyouhou will definitely be dead."
"That makes sense. I'll listen to you."
The three immortals of the Qiuxi clan talked to each other, as if they had already seen the death of Marquis Biyou.
…
Time passes.
In the blink of an eye, another ten years passed.
"Creating a secret method is indeed not a simple matter, especially since the minimum requirement for me to create it is the pinnacle of ultimate skills. Fortunately, I have accumulated a lot of experience, so the speed is not slow."
Lin Yan smiled slightly.
During this period of time, he studied the secret technique in Yanji Continent and experimented with fighting with powerful alien warriors. The close combat secret technique he created was finally successful.
Although it is a startup, Lin Yan is quite satisfied with it.
When he originally used the "Original Secret Sword", his power could have been comparable to those top secret techniques created by the powerful kings, but he was still not satisfied. It was clear how high his vision was...
It’s not as good as “The Secret Sword of the Original Sword” yet, but it has great potential.
"Now that we have achieved initial results, what remains is to continue to deepen this path. However... I need more suitable opponents."
"It's time to ask for help from the teacher." Lin Yan smiled and separated a trace of consciousness to connect to the virtual universe network.
…
Virtual universe, Thunder Island.
At the top of the central mountain range of Thunder Island, Lin Yan suddenly appeared in the Dusk Star Temple. Before he could think too much, he felt the time and space shift, and he appeared in a quiet courtyard among the palace complex.
A graceful woman in white was sitting there, brewing tea with her bare hands, her temperament as ethereal as smoke and clouds.
"Teacher." Lin Yan said respectfully.
"Hmm?" The Lord of Dusk Star looked at him with a faint smile on his face. "What do you want from me?"
"Recently, I have been creating my own close combat attack method, and have made some progress. However, it is difficult to find suitable opponents to hone my skills in the battlefield outside the domain, so I hope to ask the teacher for help." Lin Yan said.
"Oh?" The Lord of Dusk Star was quite interested in this.
She whispered, "Show it to me."
Wow!
The quiet courtyard in front of me suddenly formed a scene of endless starry sky.
This is a virtual universe where everything can be virtualized. This temple also has the characteristics of a "training field" where whatever you think about can be achieved.
"laugh!"
A sword shadow stabbed out.
It seemed that it was not a sword, but a breath, a state of destruction. The universe was like the lines of a spider web, falling apart, and the space farther away was also shaking and distorted.
The eyes of the Lord of Dusk Star lit up.
Although it doesn't look special, with her vision, she can naturally see the extraordinary aspect of it.
"good."
"You have indeed mastered the 'One Yuan Initial' to a very high level. Although this attack method is based on it, it emphasizes the meaning rather than the form. The intention is quite high, which is difficult for ordinary people to do." The Lord of Dusk Star could not help but admire, and then smiled and said, "Of course, there are many areas that need to be improved. It must be continuously improved before it can become a truly unique skill."
"Yes." Lin Yan said respectfully.
The Lord of Dusk Star nodded slightly. "From now on, you will practice here. I will simulate a suitable opponent for you in this virtual universe based on your progress and shortcomings in creating secret techniques."
"Thank you, Teacher." Lin Yan smiled, secretly looking forward to it in his heart.
