Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 415 - 414 Elevate and Proceed

"Genesis Galaxy Collapse... it actually requires 500,000 Laziness points?"

Zhou Bai furrowed his brow and glanced at his remaining 170,000 Laziness points, not anticipating that this move would cost so much.

"Well, forget it. Anyway, I now have the Death Replacement Black Lotus and the Time Reverse of the gemstone. Plus, with the strength after 40% Tao transformation, even if I encounter the Plague Department, Xiao Hun, or a Heavenly Demon at the lab, I should be able to protect myself without any issues."

"Besides, slaying a Heavenly Demon and selling it would also earn Laziness points."

"Next, I should familiarize myself with the abilities of the fourth realm first, then replenish my Primordial Divine Power."

In the fourth realm of cultivation, as the degree of Tao transformation increases, cultivators' consciousness draws closer to the Heavenly Dao, and their mastery over Primordial Divine Power becomes more adept. The Primordial Spirit becomes more sensitive to various kinds of information.

It can even communicate mind to mind, directly using Primordial Divine Power to exchange and feedback information.

Zhou Bai triggered a thought and saw a streak of Primordial Divine Power extend out from his sea of consciousness, emerging into the external Material World. Then, disconnecting the connection of the Primordial Divine Power, he left behind a point the size of a thumb floating in mid-air.

This was the standalone existence of Primordial Divine Power, within which were embedded a few simple sentences. Zhou Bai scanned it with Primordial Divine Power and felt the information contained.

He then exchanged information with Ying Hui using Primordial Divine Power. With the contact of Primordial Divine Power, the two could communicate with each other through thoughts, even transmitting some images and sensations.

Ying Hui said contentedly, "Great, Zhou Bai, you've finally reached the fourth realm. In the past, within Daoist Sects, this level would be considered quite advanced.

In the old days of Daoist Sects, various secret arts and scriptures were passed down in this heart-to-heart manner. A master would pass down the methods and experiences of cultivation, and disciples would feed back their cultivation sensations. Such efficiency in learning was high, and it reduced the likelihood of deviations from the practice.

So in the past, only those who entered the fourth realm could receive the true teachings.

I've heard that on Wanxian Island now, when Immortals pass down their techniques, they still follow this old rule; without the cultivation of the fourth realm, you can't receive personal teachings from an Immortal."

Zhou Bai nodded. Indeed, using Primordial Divine Power to transfer and feedback information greatly increased the efficiency of learning, especially this direct transmission of information, which allowed for the unreserved transfer of unique sensations and experiences in cultivation, significantly boosting the learning efficiency.

'The fourth realm is just the beginning of the Tao transformation's influence on the Primordial Spirit. The key is the upcoming fifth realm for the condensation of the Taoist fetus and the sixth realm for elevating the Taoist fetus into a Taoist Body.'

After familiarizing himself with the new changes brought on by the fourth realm, Zhou Bai began to focus on cultivating Primordial Divine Power.

'Normally, when ordinary cultivators step into the fourth realm, the upper limit of Primordial Divine Power would increase from 3,999 to 4,999.'

'But I'm different. Due to reaping luck, I had already reached over 5,200 Primordial Divine Power in the third realm.'

'And now...'

Zhou Bai felt the changes in his Primordial Spirit; he could clearly sense that his potential for Primordial Divine Power had risen again.

'Sure enough, even though my original Primordial Divine Power had already surpassed the range of ordinary cultivators in the fourth realm, the increase in Tao transformation still enhanced my Primordial Divine Power's potential.'

So Zhou Bai took out the Dharma Saint Relics and began cultivating his Primordial Divine Power.

Christina inquired, "Aren't you in a rush to head to the lab?"

Zhou Bai replied, "I'll go after making sufficient preparations. After all, no lab is more important than my safety. I am the future hope of humanity."

Zhou Bai spoke confidently, "Especially since I now have Dharma Saint Relics and the Yan Pressure enhancement, it's the perfect time to rapidly improve my Primordial Divine Power. After the improvement, my strength will increase further, ensuring greater security, and with my Primordial Spirit Emergence for combat, the demand for Primordial Divine Power is even higher. A day or two's delay won't matter."

"Moreover, I've already passed the intel to West Mountain City; they've probably already set out for the lab by now."

Under the dual augmentation of the Dharma Saint Relics and the Yan Pressure, Zhou Bai's Primordial Divine Power surged rapidly, increasing nearly a hundred points every three hours or so.

After a day and night had passed, his Primordial Divine Power surged to a whopping 6012 points, and Zhou Bai's Primordial Divine Power had astonishingly reached the level of the sixth realm.

Christina exclaimed in surprise, "One day of arduous practice has equaled a whole year of cultivation for an ordinary cultivator."

Zhou Bai said, "That's what you call a genius."

Zhou Bai felt the Primordial Divine Power in his sea of knowledge, so robust that not even a smidgen more could it grow. He slowly exhaled, "I've reached the limit. After my Dao Transformation Degree reached 40%, the increase in Primordial Potential isn't 1000.

Taking into account the additional 200 or so points grown from reaping the fortunes of the Heavenly Demons, this breakthrough to the fourth realm has yielded me less than 600 points of increase in Primordial Potential. It seems the higher the Primordial Potential, the harder it is to grow."

Then, Zhou Bai silently operated his Primordial Spirit, and between the opening and closing of his eyes, a fierce glint flashed, while the surrounding air, along with the extending Primordial Divine Power, twisted ever so slightly. The light appeared to bend at that instant too—it was a force so fierce that even the air was squeezed and frozen.

Feeling the enhancement in his Primordial Divine Power, Zhou Bai thought to himself, 'With my current Primordial Divine Power, I could probably go head-to-head with a cultivator at the peak of the sixth realm using raw power.'

'Add to that my other abilities, and I now truly have the confidence to stand my ground and fight one-on-one against adversaries like Xu Dela and Xiao Hun without running away.'

Ying Hui, who stood to the side, suddenly leaped up like a large cat, looking at Zhou Bai in astonishment—he had just sensed that the Primordial Divine Power emanating from the other was no weaker than his own.

Ying Hui said, "Zhou Bai... you..."

Zhou Bai gave a slight smile, "A little progress." Afterwards, Zhou Bai further refined his Free Golden Flying Sword, elevating the otherworldly power within to over six thousand as well.

Then Zhou Bai turned to Ying Hui and said, "Teacher, next, I would like to consolidate my foundation alone, to solidify my strength and familiarize myself with the capabilities of the fourth realm."

"Um, what about these boys?" Ying Hui asked.

Zhou Bai replied, "There's no need. I want to cultivate in solitude from now on, and it's best if no one disturbs me, regardless of who it is."

"I understand. I'll take them away," Ying Hui nodded. Indeed, cultivation was a very personal matter, so wanting solitude was normal. Previously, because Zhou Bai had wanted company, he had stayed nearby.

Ying Hui added, "By the way, Zhou Bai, while you're consolidating your cultivation, you can also consider which sword diagram from the fourth realm you want to practice. This time, not only the diagrams from our Eastern Dao School but also all the sword diagrams from West Mountain Dao School are open to you. I'll simply bring the introduction to West Mountain City's sword diagrams for you to consider."

"Tina, you continue to cultivate diligently, I'll check on this."

Taking advantage of the brief period Ying Hui was away, Zhou Bai immediately performed Primordial Spirit Emergence, taking his flying sword and flew out of West Mountain City. After accelerating, he reached 5.5 times the speed of sound and headed towards the laboratory.

'Indeed, after surpassing the speed of sound, each increment is extremely difficult. Although my strength is much greater than before, the speed of Sword Control has only increased from 5 times the speed of sound to 5.5 times.'

Zhou Bai experimented with Laziness Acceleration for a few seconds, jumping from the original 7 times the speed of sound to 8 times, clearly because Laziness Acceleration also enhanced after improving the Dao Transformation Degree.

'Primordial Spirit Emergence truly greatly enhances a cultivator's mobility, sigh... If everyone could perform Primordial Spirit Emergence, the Heavenly Demons wouldn't have such an advantage now.'

Continuing his high-speed flight, Zhou Bai soon arrived at the laboratory.

There, deep in the canyon, a metallic portal had already been opened, and the entire canyon seemed quiet and deserted, as if no one was around.

"Nobody guarding the outside? Could they all have gone inside?" Zhou Bai thought. As he controlled his flying sword to approach the metallic portal, he found it pitch black. No matter how he swept his Primordial Divine Power, he couldn't make out anything inside.

"Could it be that this gate leads to the void?"

After a brief consideration, taking confidence in his many survival techniques, Zhou Bai flew straight in. The moment he did, the scenery changed, and when Zhou Bai regained sight, what appeared before him was an endless heavenly palace with giant doors in front of him inscribed with the words "North Heavenly Gate."

As Zhou Bai was marveled by the sight before him, a massive hand adorned with magical radiance reached out to grab him.

"Hmm? Who's so bold as to throw their flying sword directly in here? Well then, I won't be polite."
