Chapter 403 Black-Patterned Stone Pillars: Tempering Willpower
"Black-patterned stone pillars!" Chen Yuan's eyes lit up.
For him, this area was indeed an excellent training ground, combining the effects of time acceleration and willpower impact.
The impact of the will, which can reach the peak of the Eternal True God, not only satisfies Chen Yuan's desire to improve his mental will in the Meditation Realm, but also has an excellent tempering effect on the primordial spirit sword intent.
Especially when you get closer to the black-veined stone pillar, the flow of time around it becomes faster, and it can easily exceed the limit of ten thousand times.
Of course, this is on the premise that one's mind and will can withstand the impact of the will.
Chen Yuan had long been troubled by the slow pace of cultivating his primordial spirit sword intent and had coveted this treasure land for a long time.
Unfortunately, Chen Yuan was unable to travel to that area before the virtual universe covered it.
Because the spaceship is surrounded by dangerous places, many areas prohibit teleportation, and you can only fly there slowly. Given the spaceship's enormous size of hundreds of millions of light-years, how long would it take to reach its destination?
Therefore, Chen Yuan wasn't afraid of danger; it's just that without optimizing spatial teleportation, even if he wanted to reach that area, it would take at least several hundred years.
He doesn't have the time for that; he'd rather wait for the virtual universe to finish upgrading and then teleport there directly.
Just like now.
With a thought, he sensed the space of the "Black Patterned Stone Pillar" through the virtual universe network and teleported there directly the next second.
The Black-Patterned Stone Pillar Space consists of sixteen black stone pillars, each about a thousand light-years tall. These pillars all exude a powerful will, and even though they are far apart, one can feel a faint sense of oppression.
Chen Yuan learned from the information in the original work that the closer one gets to the stone pillar itself, the stronger the pressure of the black-patterned stone pillar's will becomes, reaching up to the peak level of the Eternal True God's will.
At the same time, the flow of time will increase rapidly.
If one can reach the level of an eternal true god's will, one can easily obtain time acceleration by hundreds of thousands of times.
"I just don't know how close I can get to the black-patterned stone pillar with my peak True God level willpower, or how many times faster I can get."
Chen Yuan gazed at the sixteen enormous, pitch-black stone pillars surrounding him, the one closest to him and also the one with the fewest inhabitants—the 11th stone pillar.
After all, his purpose in coming here was only to temper his will, and he had no intention of communicating with the life forms in the cosmic sea for the time being.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I think it's troublesome and will waste my cultivation time.
In fact, with the two ninth-order secret techniques that Chen Yuan has mastered, even without relying on his treasures, he is almost invincible in the Cosmic Sea.
If we include the supreme treasures, it can be said that apart from the appearance of the original forms of the two holy land ancestors, basically no one can rival him.
If it weren't for the fact that the highest level of power that could be unleashed in the primordial universe was only the sixth-order peak, Chen Yuan would have already unified all the major races in the primordial universe.
call out!
Chen Yuan's figure soared through the air, flying towards the No. 11 black-patterned stone pillar at an extremely fast speed.
His flight speed reached a hundred times the speed of light, which is also the speed limit of the cosmic sea. Unless one possesses an ability similar to "words becoming law," it is basically impossible to break this limit.
However, he was not far from the No. 11 stone pillar, so at a speed of 100 times the speed of light, a few hours later, he officially entered the range of the black-patterned stone pillar's will impact.
"The flow of time has begun to change; it's now accelerated a hundredfold."
Chen Yuan's figure did not stop. After all, he was still far from reaching the core area of the stone pillar. As he got closer to the core of the stone pillar, the intensity of the impact of will he suffered was also increasing rapidly.
At the same time, the flow of time around us is getting faster and faster.
A thousand times————Three··————·Thousand·————
boom!
As if a barrier had been broken through, the flow of time around Chen Yuan suddenly increased by more than ten thousand times, and the intensity of the impact on his will reached the threshold of a true god.
"Is the will of a true god simply a matter of ten thousand times acceleration?"
Chen Yuan felt the pressure of the will and found it quite easy.
After all these years of cultivation, his meditation technique was almost at the third level, and his will had naturally reached the peak of a true god long ago.
However, the reason Chen Yuan stopped here was not due to his will, but because as he got closer to the black-patterned stone pillar, the intricate patterns on the huge stone pillar gradually became clearer.
"These secret patterns—they're so profound."
Chen Yuan subconsciously activated the Primordial Eye, observing the secret patterns on the stone pillar.
Then, to his surprise, he discovered that as he analyzed more and more secret runes, his proficiency with the Primordial Eye, which had been gradually stagnating, began to increase at a visible rate.
"Excellent!" A hint of joy flashed across Chen Yuan's face: "It will allow the Primordial Eye to grow rapidly—the level of these runes must be at least at the peak of the Eternal True God realm, so that they can provide considerable experience for the secret technique."
"With the extremely fast time flow in this region, my Primordial Eye should be able to break through soon."
Currently, the proficiency level of the Primordial Eye is at the fourth level of 83%, and it is rapidly advancing towards 84%, especially under the 10,000x acceleration, the rate of improvement is simply visible to the naked eye.
"keep going."
Chen Yuan certainly wouldn't stop there.
After all, the deeper he went into the core, the clearer the runes on the stone pillar became, and the faster the flow of time became.
Besides, he was counting on the impact of the black-patterned stone pillar's will to help him cultivate the Meditation Technique and the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent. Now, this little bit of impact of will couldn't have the effect of tempering him.
So Chen Yuan continued to delve deeper, and the intensity of the mental challenges he encountered became increasingly greater.
Chen Yuan did not stop in the early, middle, and late stages of the True God realm, steadfastly continuing to approach the main body of the stone pillar.
"Hmm."
Chen Yuan frowned slightly. At this moment, the impact on his will had reached the threshold of the peak of the True God realm. Although he was still some distance away from his true peak, the difference was not significant.
"The time flow here—is it only 3 times faster?"
To be honest, Chen Yuan was not very satisfied.
According to the information he obtained from the original work, there is a true god-level expert in the cosmic sea called "Lord of the Stars of Bechi," who is already able to penetrate into a region with a flow rate of 13 times.
"The difference is so great. It seems that the will of this Star Lord Beichi has broken through the level of a true god. I just don't know which stage of the Void True God he belongs to."
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly, but he wasn't too disappointed.
Since this Lord Beichi Star has cultivated in the Black Pattern Stone Pillar area for more than one cycle of reincarnation, it is only natural that his will could break through to the Void True God realm.
Even considering the time he has spent cultivating, it's still less than a fraction of the opponent's lifespan, so it's normal that he can't compare.
Besides, given his proficiency in the Sitting Meditation Technique, he could break through in a hundred years at most. By then, his will would reach the level of a Void True God, so he wouldn't need to envy others.
"This isn't the limit of my willpower yet, let's keep going."
After figuring it out, Chen Yuan did not hesitate and continued towards the black-patterned stone pillar.
However, compared to before, his speed is now incredibly slow, equivalent to the speed of a star-level being flying.
Firstly, the pressure of will here had reached Chen Yuan's limit, forcing him to slow down and adapt.
Secondly, it was also because this area was already quite close to the main body of the black-patterned stone pillar, and even if he advanced one kilometer, he could clearly feel the pressure increasing step by step.
As a result, Chen Yuan's pace slowed down.
However, although the speed is slow, the increase in willpower impact and time flow is by no means slow.
If he used to only notice the changes after flying hundreds of millions of kilometers, now he only needs to travel a few kilometers to feel the pressure on his will and the speed of time flowing rapidly.
About three hours later, Chen Yuan had traveled several thousand kilometers further.
From this point on, his steps became increasingly difficult, and the flow of time around him increased from 3 times to 4.5 times.
The shock to his will that he was facing had already exceeded his limit. It was a will that was even stronger than that of a peak True God, but it was far from reaching the level of a Void True God.
"Well, this is a real test of willpower. It's been a long time since I've experienced such pressure that pushes my willpower to its limits."
Although Chen Yuan's face was somewhat pale, the corners of his mouth were curved into a clear smile.
For him, this kind of pressure that exceeds the limit is a long-lost feeling.
Going back in time, the last time he experienced this situation was when he was about to perfect his meditation technique, and he was going through a high-intensity mental struggle in order to break through to the embryonic breathing state.
Going back further, we arrive at Chen Yuan's apprenticeship, where he experienced extreme pain while consuming dragon blood. It was during that time that he successfully comprehended the state of "entering meditation," and his mental will surged accordingly.
Apart from these two experiences, Chen Yuan has never encountered such a confrontation that transcends the limits of willpower.
Whether it was the confrontation when he was possessed by "Shang Hou" or the later recognition of the Star Tower as its master, neither of them could actually exceed the limits of his will.
After all, although the incident with Shang Hou was dangerous, Chen Yuan's will had already entered the origin of the universe, thus isolating the opponent's attack, so overall there was no danger.
As for the Star Tower, he handled it with ease. Even the most dangerous moment only required him to temporarily abandon the cultivation of his clone and withdraw a portion of his will.
"It's been so long since I've had such a thrilling experience."
Chen Yuan grinned. "Very well, let's see where my limits are. Anyway, even if I lose the fight, I'll just get by. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Since we're going to fight, let's make it thorough!"
Within the consciousness space, a primordial spirit in white robes sat upright in the void, holding a sword of will forged from primordial spirit sword intent.
With a thought, Chen Yuan straightened up and took a step, appearing in the outside world in the next second!
"My primordial spirit is the product of the fusion of will and energy, which is incomparable to those ethereal wills."
""
The white-robed Chen Yuan chose to face the impact of the black-patterned stone pillar's will directly, while he held his primordial spirit sword in front of him, sharpening its edge under endless pressure.
Under these circumstances, the proficiency of the Yuan Shen Sword Intent soared, rapidly advancing towards the seventh level.
