Were all the skeletons in the abyss experimental materials?
No, those that could be moved were experimental materials, while those that couldn't were those that had experienced life and death situations. There had been too many of them over the countless years.
The Death Universe only saw the creatures that came out of it transform, but it didn't care about the creatures that had died here. To the Death Universe, with the Bonesword, the entire Core Space could be its own civilization, so there was no need to care.
Thirteen times.
He had surpassed Toad Ol 'Six.
The Thousand Trickery was looking forward to seeing how many times Lu Yin would be able to go through this, as it represented the limit of his body's endurance. Since his consciousness had always been clear, the Thousand Trickery was curious as to whether or not this method would be useful for him to reach his potential, as well as how he was able to maintain his consciousness.
It needed a test result.
Fifteen times.
The Thousand Trickery looked deeply at the broken but complete skeleton within the black sphere. Humans were born insignificant, but some had limitless potential, and it had finally met one.
Seventeen times.
Eighteen times.
Nineteen times.
Twenty times.
The Thousand Trickery's eyes widened. Twenty times, second only to that creature. Throughout history, this was the second creature to have such high potential. It wanted to see how many times Lu Yin could endure and whether it would be effective while his consciousness remained clear.
Lu Yin's consciousness was still clear, but he couldn't tell if he was dreaming or not. He saw the Thousand Trickery's figure blur, but the world around him was emitting light as darkness engulfed him again and again. He couldn't have died, right? But if he was dead, how could he still have consciousness?
Twenty-one times.
Twenty-two times.
Lu Yin felt …
He was swimming freely in a black ocean, his entire body becoming one with it. Freedom, complete freedom. It was as if he had completely released his musical self in Music City. He seemed to hear the music of Music Skeleton Withering, coming from a distant shore. No, it wasn't the music of Music Skeleton Withering. It was his true self, a self that had been born from nothingness. The first cry.
Was it a cry?
But why did it sound so much like music?
It was beautiful and pure.
The Thousand Trickery stood in place and stared at Lu Yin. It had already been twenty-five times.
He had surpassed that creature.
That shouldn't be the case. That creature's innate gift was extremely rare, and even in the glorious human civilization of the Nine Bases Era, there was almost nothing that could compare to it. How could a skeleton compare to that creature?
Was this the greatest innate gift of the Nine Bases Era?
His luck wasn't that good.
If it really was that kind of talent, how could this human still be bestowed with the Bone Language?
Was it because he didn't have time to cultivate?
He was still wrong.
Is this method useless when one's consciousness remains awake?
Could this be the case?
Otherwise, how could this human have such high potential?
Twenty-six times.
How many times could he experience this?
Twenty seven times.
Twenty eight times.
Thousand Trickery took a few steps forward and stared at Lu Yin, eager to know the results of the experiment.
Twenty nine times.
The black sphere shrank and expanded for the thirtieth time.
Within the black sphere, Lu Yin moved once more. This time, he had completely regained consciousness, and the dreamy feeling of swimming in a black sea was dragged back to reality. Death had descended upon him once more, but this time, he was not on the brink of death; he was truly dead.
He knew that if he stayed in the black sphere any longer, he would really die.
Yes.
At this moment, his thoughts became clear. That was why he forcefully walked out and fell to the ground.
Qian Ji stared at the unconscious Lu Yin in shock. Thirty times, a whole thirty times! This had never happened before. Did this human really have that much potential?
Or had he already failed the moment he regained consciousness? But how could his body withstand thirty near-death experiences within the black sphere?
The black sphere slowly condensed into a black dot and was swallowed by Thousand Trickery.
It circled around Lu Yin again and again, occasionally crouching down to examine his body and pinch his bones. Crack! They shattered. Lu Yin's skeletal body was already on the brink of death, and it was covered in cracks. Even a normal person would shatter it with a single kick, let alone Qian Ji.
It was impossible to tell anything from his current state.
Only when Lu Yin completely recovered and saw how much his strength had increased would they be able to see the results.
Qian Ji grabbed Lu Yin and threw him into the abyss, where he could slowly recover. Without the obstruction of the Stygian Prison Bone, he would be able to recover as soon as he regained consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yin slowly regained consciousness. He looked around and saw that he was in the abyss again.
He looked up and saw the dome of darkness. He also saw the ray of light that he had pierced through illuminating his body.
Lu Yin let out a deep breath and checked his body. He was in a terrible state, much worse than when he had been attacked by the Stygian Prison Bone. His entire body had been completely shattered, but this injury was not serious. He immediately absorbed the power of death and recovered.
Not long after, the cracks on Bai Gu's body disappeared and he had recovered.
Lu Yin clenched his fists. It had changed, and there was a strange feeling.
It was clearly his own body, but it also felt like it was not his body. There was an indescribable sense of control and strength.
He had experienced this feeling before. It was the strength of his main body when he was a rogue.
It couldn't be, right? This skeleton clone of his had the strength of his main body when he was a rogue?
What about the strength?
It was about the same.
It seemed that other than teleportation, it did not have any innate gifts like dice. Its basic abilities were about the same as when his main body was a rogue. It was much stronger than before.
If this body were to fight against the golden wing now, it would not be so difficult. Just the strength alone would be enough to make it lose its sense of direction.
Was this the feeling of reaching the limit of one's potential?
Yes, when his main body was a rogue, he had also reached the limit of his potential at that time. However, this time, it was Bai Gu who had reached the limit of his potential at that time.
Lu Yin was amused. He could actually cultivate like this.
After cultivating to the limit of his potential, he could take out the white bones in his body to cultivate again. If his main body had not broken through to the Eternal Realm, he could fuse with the skeleton clone at this moment and reach a higher level.
At this level, even if he participated in the war of the three universe catastrophes, he could still compete with those who controlled the life and death calamities.
At least he could ensure that the other party could not beat him.
Of course, he still did not have the ability to break through the situation.
No matter how much he improved the skeleton clone, it could not reach the strength of his main body after breaking through to the Eternal Realm.
But he had taken the right path.
Once the skeleton clone's current ability broke through to the Eternal Realm, even if it could not be compared to his main body, it would not be too far off. At least it would not be a problem for it to fight against an existence who was at the peak of two universe laws. Whether it could win or not, at least it would be qualified to fight.
Then he would fuse with his main body.
Lu Yin did not know how high he could reach at that time.
Furthermore, this was only a clone.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement. This was still the Death Universe. No matter how powerful this clone was, it could not surpass the Abyss and be seen through by the Thousand Trickeries.
If the bone clone hadn't been allowed to die before because Lu Yin wanted to walk down this dark path, then the bone clone couldn't be allowed to die now. It had already walked down this path, and the next step was to attempt to break through to immortality.
As long as it succeeded.
Lu Yin was confident that he could fight against an existence who was at the peak of three universe laws once he fused with his clone.
It would overturn everything the unknown knew about him.
The more this was the case, the more he could not be anxious.
Lu Yin calmed down and recalled what he had done before, especially what he had seen and felt when he was conscious in the black sphere. He had to explain it to the Thousand Trickeries.
There must be a standard for reaching the limit of one's potential. Le Gujin was definitely one of the best, and he could be higher than him because the Thousand Trickeries had already confirmed this. But how much higher?
He had no way of knowing this.
Because he did not know the standard for comparison.
He had seen the Thousand Trickeries in the black sphere move away from him at first and then approach him later. It seemed unbelievable. Why was it unbelievable?
Did he do something that surprised it?
Lu Yin had to think step by step and perfect every step as much as possible. At the same time, he had to hide himself as much as possible.
This was very difficult because the Thousand Trickeries was very smart.
Not long after, Lu Yin walked out of the underground abyss and saw the Thousand Trickeries by the river.
It seemed to like standing by the river.
The Thousand Trickeries saw Lu Yin walk out.
It looked over and sized Lu Yin up before giving him a thumbs up. "Amazing."
Lu Yin was speechless. "Senior, does this mean that I have reached the limit of my potential?"
The Thousand Trickeries scratched its head. "It should be. How do you feel?
Have you become more powerful? "
Lu Yin nodded and clenched his fists excitedly. "You have become much more powerful."
"How much?"
"I can't say for sure. My strength and bones have increased. I thought that I would never be able to become stronger again. Thank you, senior."
Thousand Trickery looked at Lu Yin, "You were conscious when you were in the black sphere, right?"
Lu Yin shook his head. "I don't know. I felt like I was conscious, but also like I was dreaming. I felt light."
"How did you feel at that time?"
"It's light as a feather."
"Can you control your body?"
Lu Yin nodded. "Yes."
The Thousand Trickeries' eyes lit up. "How did you feel at that moment?"
Lu Yin recalled. "Comfortable."
The Thousand Trickeries, "??"
It had guessed many things, but it had never guessed that it was comfortable. Comfortable?
How could it be comfortable?
It was close to death.
"You, comfortable?"
"Yes, comfortable. Swimming is so comfortable."
The Thousand Trickeries was confused. "Swimming?"
Lu Yin told it about his feelings. He did feel like he was swimming in a black sea. He was not lying. When facing a smart person, lying would be easily seen through. He did not lie. He did feel light. He could not tell if he was dreaming or awake. The feeling of swimming was the clearest.
He did not know what the Thousand Trickeries' standards were, but everyone's feelings were different. It was difficult to judge based on feelings.
The Thousand Trickeries muttered to himself.
It felt the same for all creatures that had gone through this step.
Every creature's feelings were different because every creature had different habits. Some creatures would never be able to swim, so they would not feel this way. However, some creatures were born in the water, so swimming was as normal as walking. There was nothing special about it.
For humans, swimming was just a pastime.
So comfortable?
