Chapter 1958 The Supreme, Omniscient, and Omnipotent "God"; A New Era Has Begun
Initially, they had just awakened their superpowers, were showing their talent, were full of vigor, and were even somewhat arrogant.
Even though they knew the gap was huge after Bai Xuan stepped into the realm of "gods", they might not have been without the thought that "the future is within reach".
After all, we are all chosen ones, standing at the forefront of the spiritual energy revival wave.
But as their strength increased and they became stronger, their understanding of Bai Xuan became increasingly blurred.
Even the realm of "god" that he had entered long ago seemed unattainable in their eyes.
"The more we cultivate, the more we realize how far we are from that realm."
"At that time, he probably already possessed the power to destroy planets, right?"
Huo Yu sighed.
Right now, they can only be considered at the level of destroying a country, and not even in one strike, but in several strikes.
Destroying a planet—that's just a concept.
This means possessing the power to instantly unleash the force to annihilate continental shelves, penetrate the Earth's core, and disintegrate planets.
The word "god" has a profound meaning in Chinese culture, representing supreme, omniscient, omnipotent, and transcendent.
Using this word to define the realm Bai Xuan broke through at that time demonstrates their understanding of Bai Xuan's power at that time.
That is a fundamental difference, an absolute gap in life form and power level.
Although they also made some breakthroughs in the process, they were still far from reaching Bai Xuan's level at that time; now, Bai Xuan has long since reached a place they cannot see.
"But it's still a step forward."
"Nobody really wants to be compared to that freak, right?"
Compared to someone as "abnormal" as Bai Xuan? She had long since passed that unrealistic fantasy stage.
His existence itself defies common sense.
From the moment of awakening, it was favored by the will of the Earth and granted the authority of "nature". Later, it was even added to the place that connects all the heavens and the myriad worlds.
It's like having an even bigger cheat code on top of an already cheat code.
They can only be considered minor players at best; it's normal that they can't catch up, and it's impossible for them to even come close.
Comparing yourself to him? That's just asking for trouble.
From a very early age, Huo Yu never regarded him as a comparable goal; her gaze was always set on these "Kings of the Scroll" of her generation.
"Alright, let's stop thinking about those useless things."
"First, I need to properly digest my current strength and familiarize myself with the power I've gained after the breakthrough, and then..."
Huo Yu's lips curled into a malicious smile.
The wild areas of Hangzhou also have mutated creatures of the "first-order" level.
Although the previous beast tide killed some, there should still be some left; she just needs to find them.
In the past, it was naturally difficult to find someone, but now she has already made a breakthrough.
Just now, when she spread her mental energy, she discovered several "first-order" level mutated creatures that she had never seen before. It can only be said that they had been hiding very well in the past, and she had not discovered them all along.
But it doesn't matter now, they can't hide anymore.
Of course, she couldn't kill them all, since mutated creatures are also resources, especially the "first sequence".
Moreover, if too many are killed, the remaining mutated creatures will feel the urgency and start to compete in cultivation. What should we do then?
Humans would be the ones who suffer.
So, just kill one to test your strength.
It's also a good opportunity to sample the flesh of a mutated creature at the "first-order" level.
Thanks to their natural talent, their meat gets better every day.
Seven days later.
On the vast land of China, two important cities, far apart, erupted almost simultaneously with a breathtaking and awe-inspiring aura and extraordinary celestial phenomena!
In Ningcheng, the fog on the outskirts of the city suddenly thickened.
This fog was not ordinary white water vapor, but a mist with a faint silvery-gray hue, seemingly capable of swallowing light and sound.
It spread at an alarming speed, quickly enveloping an area of dozens of miles around Ningcheng.
Looking out from inside the city, one sees an endless, silvery-gray wall of mist, thick and solid, slowly surging, as if isolating the entire city from the outside world.
However, this fog, though mysterious, is neither aggressive nor corrosive.
It remained outside the city boundaries, without encroaching on the urban area in the slightest.
The scene within the mist was bizarre and fantastical.
Sometimes mirage-like illusions appear, resembling ancient cities or visions of the future; at other times, low, distant whispers, as if from a faraway time, echo in the mist, yet no matter how hard you listen, you cannot grasp their specific content.
Even more, a spacetime-distorting fluctuation flashed by in the mist, as if connecting to an unknown place.
The fog did not cause panic, because the residents and guardians of Ningcheng understood the source of the phenomenon almost instantly and felt a familiar and reassuring aura.
That was the "first order" of Ningcheng, the power of Ningguang!
Meanwhile, in the cultivation room of the Ningcheng Spiritual Energy Bureau, Ye Feng's figure was enveloped in endless silver-gray mist.
His aura blended seamlessly with the mist, as if he had become the master of this misty world.
At almost the same time, in the capital.
The immense life force that had permeated the entire city when Chen Changsheng broke through reappeared, but this time, it was subtly different from the last time.
The warm, soft, and vibrant emerald green light, like a mother's embrace or the purest dew, silently sprinkles down on every corner of the capital.
Where the light passed, people did not feel a significant increase in lifespan as they had last time, but instead felt a deep-seated comfort and healing.
Office workers who work at their desks feel a sudden relief from their stiff neck and lumbar spine; those suffering from chronic diseases or physical weakness feel a warm current flowing through their entire body, greatly relieving years of lingering pain.
Patients who have just undergone surgery experience significantly faster wound healing and reduced pain.
All the injuries were quietly soothed and repaired under this light of life.
If Chen Changsheng's life force gently nourishes his origin and subtly extends the "length" of his life, then the life light emerging at this moment focuses more on "healing" and "repairing." It is a gentle nourishment for the current state, allowing the life form to exist in its most perfect state.
Not far from the Imperial Capital's Spiritual Energy Bureau, inside a building surrounded by lush green vines and exotic flowers, Ye Feng slowly withdrew his outstretched hand, and the gentle white light and emerald life light flowing around him gradually subsided.
"This time, among those in my batch who haven't made a breakthrough yet, Ning Guang is probably the only one left."
Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief after his breakthrough.
Although he wasn't particularly obsessed with power, especially since he had awakened a support-type ability, it was still somewhat shameful that he wasn't the only one in his batch of first-tier abilities who hadn't broken through.
The main problem is that they are easily ridiculed.
When Chen Changsheng broke through before, the life phenomenon that nourished the entire city had already made him feel a sense of urgency; Huo Yu's breakthrough afterward made him feel even more urgency.
However, there's no way to accelerate cultivation; it can only be done by relying on intuition, which is why it's come to this point.
Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long, and Ning Guang still hadn't broken through.
He doesn't want to be at the bottom.
I absolutely cannot allow myself to be ranked last.
"After you've digested this, report to Director Liu."
"However, my extraordinary phenomenon is so great that he should already know about it."
Ye Feng thought to himself, then prepared to close his eyes to process the changes in strength brought about by the breakthrough.
However, in his perception that was beyond anything he had ever experienced, almost like that of God, he "saw" the lives of countless ordinary people inside and outside Ningcheng.
One phenomenon in particular caught his attention.
"Why is it that, even though spiritual energy has been recovering for two years, and many ordinary people have achieved physical fitness far exceeding that of the past through basic body tempering methods or by consuming the flesh and blood of mutated creatures, they have embarked on the starting point of the cultivation path?"
"However, a considerable number of people still have health problems of varying degrees?"
"Several global spiritual energy tides, coupled with the nourishing and purifying effects of the spiritual rain that flowed globally each time Bai Xuan broke through in the past, all contributed to the essence of life."
"Normally, even if it cannot enable everyone to reach the extraordinary level, it should be enough to repair most long-standing ailments and physiological damage, restoring the body to a level of health close to the theoretical perfection."
"That shouldn't be the case."
He found this somewhat puzzling.
Logically, under such a high concentration and high frequency of spiritual energy, ordinary people should generally be healthy and free from all diseases.
At least those physical problems caused by aging, strain, and old injuries should be significantly alleviated or even eliminated.
Could it be...?
Ye Feng thought of a possibility, but then immediately dismissed it.
"How could they have injured themselves again in such a short time? The capital city has long been cleaned up, there are almost no mutated creatures threatening it, and the public security is excellent."
"It's normal for mercenaries and explorers to get injured in the wilderness or secret realms while hunting."
"But the vast majority of people in the capital are ordinary people. Where did they get so many combat casualties?"
Having ruled out the most likely possibility of injury in battle, Ye Feng's thoughts turned to another area that was both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar to him—work.
"So, it can only be work?"
Is work really that damaging?
Ye Feng was a little confused.
Normal work should just be repetitive labor or mental activity, right?
With the nourishment of spiritual energy, it shouldn't cause such a widespread and persistent problem.
It's impossible that their workload would also increase after their physical condition improved, right?
Ye Feng found this somewhat absurd, but he also vaguely felt that perhaps this was part of the answer.
The resurgence of spiritual energy has brought about a leap in productivity and dramatic changes in society, with new industries, new demands, and new competitive pressures emerging one after another.
Ordinary people have gained a better physical foundation, but will society's "expectations" and "requirements" for them also rise accordingly?
Faster pace, higher goals.
These invisible pressures may erode health more than physical labor. Even a body nourished by spiritual energy may find it difficult to maintain a perfect state under long-term mental stress, anxiety, and disordered sleep patterns.
He shook his head, setting aside these speculations that could not be verified for the time being.
But the discovery of this problem itself made it impossible for him to ignore it.
Why do these people gain power and break through realms? Isn't it to protect this land beneath their feet, so that the people living on this land can live and work in peace and have a better future?
If ordinary people in this new era are burdened with a heavier health burden for various reasons, wouldn't their efforts and efforts to become stronger be less meaningful?
"Anyway, let's talk to Director Liu later."
Ye Feng made a decision in his heart.
Although, theoretically, as someone belonging to the Spiritual Energy Bureau, this kind of matter is not within his scope of responsibility.
But the "first order" is the pillar of the nation.
Their opinions carry significant weight in themselves.
As long as they have the will and their arguments are substantial, they are fully qualified and have the responsibility to participate in discussions on any major issues concerning China.
Moreover, the reason why the Spiritual Energy Bureau exists is to make everyone in the Great Xia, including ordinary people, live a better life, rather than being more tired.
Identifying problems, raising questions, and driving solutions are all part of our responsibility, regardless of whether the problem originates from the outside or the inside.
"Moreover, whether before or after the revival of spiritual energy, the most important thing in China has always been 'people'."
This is the most important thing.
Putting these thoughts aside for the moment, Ye Feng closed his eyes again and focused his mind on his body.
He needs to quickly digest and consolidate the enormous changes brought about by this breakthrough, familiarize himself with the power of the surge, and then understand the reasons behind the problem.
Thus, the original ten "first-order" figures of China, after experiencing their own accumulation, insights, and opportunities, broke through barriers and completed leaps in their life levels within a similar period of time, stepping into a completely new realm.
Qin Tian, Xuan Qing, Chen Bing, Zhang Daolong, Li Shan, Wang Ming, Chen Changsheng, Huo Yu, Ye Feng, and Ning Guang—all ten have successfully broken through the barrier!
This is a milestone moment.
It signifies that, in the face of the dramatic changes brought about by the resurgence of spiritual energy, the most elite individual combat capabilities of Chinese civilization, and indeed the entire human civilization, have collectively reached a new level.
They are turning the first page of a new era.
The training room of the Imperial Capital Spiritual Energy Bureau.
Two blurry figures moving at an extreme speed, exceeding the limits of what the naked eye can perceive, collided, separated, and collided again in mid-air!
Each collision produced a deafening roar.
However, both of them had mastered the art of controlling their power to the extreme, and all their destructive force was directed at each other without any waste or spillage onto the surrounding environment.
Finally, after another heavy impact, the two figures separated as if electrocuted, each sliding back more than ten meters before coming to a steady stop.
One of them, with a tall and straight figure like a pine tree, a stern face, and black hair soaked with sweat and plastered to his forehead, was Lin Kai.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat dripping from his chin, but his eyes were far from calm.
"They all made breakthroughs."
Lin Kai looked at Kun Hu opposite him, his calm tone masking a barely concealed undercurrent of emotion.
He didn't say names, but at this point in time, both of them knew perfectly well who "they" referred to.
Kunhu's expression did not change upon hearing this.
He simply walked to the edge of the training room, picked up two towels, tossed one to Lin Kai, vigorously wiped his face, and then said:
"This is the proper thing to do."
“We and they were never part of the first awakening sequence.”
