Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters

Inside Hundred Refinements Valley, Shen Lin sat cross-legged, unaware that he had become the number one wanted criminal of Great Wei.

Closing his eyes, his thoughts sank into the depths of his consciousness, and his attribute panel slowly emerged.

[Shen Lin]

[Martial Arts Mastered: Radiant Sun (Perfected), Mysterious Wing Thousand Kill (Not Initiated), Weapon Refinement Hand (Minor Accomplishment), Blazing Flame Blade (Perfected), Spirit Ape Staff Technique (Not Initiated), ???, ???, ???]

[Cultivation Techniques Mastered: Nine Revolutions Heavenly Demon Art (First Revolution), Burning Heaven Boiling Sea Art (Initiation), Heaven Interception Mystical Gate Art (Not Initiated), ???, ???]

[Dao Principle Secret Arts: ???, ???]

[Remaining Lifespan: 551 years]

[Demonic Beast Lifespan: 57,300 years]

[Talents: Fist Technique Proficiency (Beginner), Blade Technique Proficiency (Beginner), Finger Technique Proficiency (Beginner)]

This trip, he had gained a lot.

Not only did he restore his Heavenly Demon body to its peak.

But he also obtained many good things in Mirage Spirit City.

A cultivation technique and a martial art.

Both were rare Earth-grade items.

Most importantly, the demonic beast lifespan!

Shen Lin did not expect that when he destroyed the Mirage Pearl and the Mirage Demon died, the system would pop up a prompt.

[Killed an Enlightened Mirage Demon, late-stage Spirit Nurturing Realm, lifespan of 100,000 years, remaining lifespan of 50,000 years, absorbed.]

50,000 years of demonic beast lifespan!

This one Mirage Demon alone was comparable to the sum of demonic beast lifespan provided by all the demonic beasts Shen Lin had killed before.

With so much demonic beast lifespan, he could force his realm upwards.

After all, after absorbing the pure Yin energy in the Mirage Pearl, his cultivation had already reached the Perfected Aperture Opening Realm.

Now, as long as he compressed all the spiritual power in his body into solid spiritual cores, he could smoothly break through to the Constellation Realm.

Slowly opening his eyes, Shen Lin was not in a hurry to break through.

Instead, he took out several fragments from his storage ring.

These were the so-called Divination Plate fragments he had obtained from Yin Jiwu before.

Originally, adding the one on Zhong Bailing's body, there were only two.

However, when the Mirage Demon died and its body dissipated, Shen Lin discovered that three black lights flew out of the Mirage Dragon Tower.

Three more of the same Divination Plate fragments.

These fragments seemed to have a special connection with each other, and they could automatically move closer to each other.

At this moment, after Shen Lin pieced together the five fragments, a hint of doubt appeared on his face.

He originally thought that these fragments should be similar to the Burning Sea Flame image he had seen before.

But now, he found that there were still great differences between the two.

The Burning Sea Flame pattern on the broken leather scroll was simple in structure, with only a few strokes.

The back was a map.

But now, the Burning Sea Flame pattern on this half-assembled Divination Plate was more complex.

Although Shen Lin could feel that this was still the Burning Sea Flame pattern.

Compared to the Burning Sea Flame on the broken leather scroll, the structure of the Burning Sea Flame on this one seemed a bit more complex.

Moreover, the back of the Divination Plate was covered with complex characters, like a compass.

A map, a compass, was this telling him to go treasure hunting?

Shen Lin sighed, turned the Divination Plate fragments over, and looked at some text descriptions below the surface pattern.

The Silver Mantis Clan's ancestor deduced the Earth-grade cultivation technique Heaven Interception Mystical Gate Art based on clues on a Divination Plate fragment.

At this moment, as Shen Lin carefully looked, a series of fantastical scenes suddenly appeared before his eyes.

In a trance, those characters and patterns actually left the Divination Plate and danced in the air.

Transforming into a series of scenes.

The wind howled, the sea roared and churned, the mountains stood tall and still, and the trees took root in the rocks.

A blade of grass was rolled up by a rabbit and eaten into its stomach.

But then, the fawn was preyed upon by a gray wolf.

The gray wolf had just enjoyed a delicious meal when it encountered a hungry black bear.

The next second, the black bear fell, its paw was chopped off, cooked into a delicacy, and became a dish on the plate of a human.

The scene changed, and the pupils of the human race turned white, becoming food for the demon race.

After countless battles, the final predator grew old and died, and its body turned into nourishment for the earth.

A blade of grass broke through the soil in place and stretched its body.

Everything in the world is in endless reincarnation.

This is the rule of the world's operation.

This is...

Dao?

Just as Shen Lin had some understanding and slowly regained his senses, the system's cold prompt sounded in his mind.

[Congratulations, you have initially comprehended the Dao Principle Secret Art 'Heaven Interception Strange Technique (Fragment)', do you want to spend lifespan to deduce it completely?]

Shen Lin was stunned.

Dao Principle Secret Art?

This thing actually appeared in the attribute panel after Shen Lin and Hao Xi exchanged identities.

In the Dao Principle Secret Art column of the attribute panel, there were still two question marks, and with his current strength, he could not understand the mysteries within.

Shen Lin had always been curious, and when he came to Hundred Refinements Valley before, he had also inquired about relevant information.

But he gained nothing.

He could only guess that with his current strength, he could not come into contact with this secret.

But now, he had actually comprehended a Dao Principle Secret Art from this Divination Plate fragment?

After hesitating slightly, he decisively said: "Start deduction, first invest 1,000 years of demonic beast lifespan!"

50,000 years of demonic beast lifespan was enough for him to break through.

Using a little to deduce a Dao Principle Secret Art was nothing to him.

While thinking, the system panel slowly unfolded.

[First year, you begin to deduce the Dao Principle Secret Art 'Heaven Interception Strange Technique'.]

[First thousand years, you have gained a lot, you can feel that there is still a long way to go before you can completely deduce the Dao Principle Secret Art.]

[Deduction complete!]

Damn it.

A thousand years of demonic beast lifespan!

It was like throwing a stone into the water, and you got nothing.

Shen Lin hesitated for a moment.

He didn't know how many more years of demonic beast lifespan would be needed to complete the deduction.

Was he going to continue?

But after a moment, he gritted his teeth and prepared to continue the deduction.

After all, he had now reached the Perfected Aperture Opening Realm, and it wouldn't take much demonic beast lifespan to break through to the Constellation Realm.

And from the Constellation Realm to the Primordial Chaos Realm, with the strict requirements of his cultivation technique, the amount of spiritual power required would inevitably be astonishing.

Relying solely on external spiritual energy, even if all 50,000 years were invested, the progress might not be ideal.

In that case, it was better to deduce this Dao Principle Secret Art first.

"System! Continue the deduction, invest... 3,000 years!"

[First year, you once again begin to deduce the Dao Principle Secret Art 'Heaven Interception Strange Technique'.]

[Seventeen hundredth year, you draw inferences from other things. While deducing the Dao Principle Secret Art, your understanding of the cultivation technique Heaven Interception Mystical Gate Art improves by leaps and bounds, and you have mastered this cultivation technique perfectly. Only after understanding it in detail did you discover that Heaven Interception Mystical Gate Art has made many mistakes in the understanding of this Dao Principle Secret Art Heaven Interception Strange Technique. You choose to give up this cultivation technique, and all its cultivation experience is transferred to the understanding of Heaven Interception Strange Technique.]

[Three thousandth year, after three thousand years of understanding, you vaguely feel the difference between Dao Principle Secret Arts. Unlike cultivation techniques and martial arts, Dao Principle Secret Arts use not the spiritual power in the body, but the intervention of the outside world. But how to do it? The more you understand, the more you discover your ignorance.]

[Deduction complete!]
