Desperate Night.

Chapter 569: Crossing the Tribulation Part 569
'What kind of person am I?'

Since coming into this world, he has never had time to think about this question.

The crisis of survival had been forcing him to keep rushing forward and running away. Now, after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, he had to face this problem.

'Am I willing to give everything for others?'

He asked himself this.

"No, I will only help those who are kind to me after I have protected myself and have enough energy left."

'Am I a person who stands for justice? Am I a person of strong will?'

"No, I was just driven forward by the danger, that's all."

Yu Hong asked himself again and again, constantly affirming and denying, until finally, he was left with a few answers, which were a few true characteristics of himself.

The conclusion is actually very simple.

"I am just an ordinary person. An ordinary person who is a little selfish, a little courageous, afraid of death, and trembling with fear."

Yu Hong has never known himself as clearly as he does now.

He closed his eyes, and his mental power continued to see through his body. Every inch of flesh and blood was clearly revealed in his mind.

'I am just like this. No need to hesitate, no need to worry, no need to fear criticism. I am born like this. Growth has endowed me, the environment has transformed me, and I will change, but now, at this moment.'

Yu Hong's mind flashed through the scenes of his journey. He could clearly see the growth and changes that gradually appeared in his every step.

Every thought I had ever had resurfaced at this moment.

Suddenly, he sat down cross-legged in the dark spiritual hall, under the gaze of Quan He and Su Dan.

At this moment, his huge and extensive mental power was quickly broken down into numerous thoughts, impulses, and ideas.

These things are all carried by a beam of spiritual power of different colors.

One's own rationality comes from the instinct of seeking benefits and avoiding harm. The mental power derived from this instinct is blue, and most of it is about how to avoid harm and how to maximize benefits.

The instincts of sensual desire are divided into two categories: five senses and reproductive desire. They are a collection of pink, red, and yellow, constantly changing colors, but overall they are much weaker than blue.

Secondly, there is a trace of faint silver spiritual power, which is a small part of the essence formed by countless tiny threads extending from rationality and sensibility.

It is a combination of perseverance, persistence, not giving up, courage, etc.

At this moment, Yu Hong had no thoughts in his mind. He just looked at the structures of these three types of selves quietly like an eye looking down from above.

Suddenly, he felt that his Nascent Soul magic power seemed to be dissociated along with his structure of self.

The magic power that was originally a whole began to be classified and coordinated with different parts of the self, and became three types of magic power with different colors.

At the same time, the appearance of magic power changed from a simple halo to delicate silk threads.

As the magic power changed, Yu Hong clearly felt that his five senses were amplified again, and the strength increased to much greater than before.

He carefully experienced this new change, feeling the magic power being categorized and easier to control.

Rational mana is in charge of command, emotional mana is responsible for charging and defending, and silver mana is transformed into the bond that connects the two and strengthens the bond between them.

Yu Hong sat cross-legged quietly for an unknown amount of time.

Suddenly, a golden light shone on his body.

In the golden light, his Nascent Soul slowly grew.

From its previous baby form, it slowly grew taller and older. After a short while, just over ten minutes later, it had grown into the appearance of a teenager.

"It seems you have made a breakthrough." Su Dan said with relief.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior." Yu Hong stood up and bowed earnestly toward the window. "After entering the state of subtlety, all the forces that hindered me were eliminated. There was no more internal friction in my body and mind, and my mana increased by more than double."

"Very good. There is no end to this level of subtlety. You should continue to consolidate it in the future. Now, continue to talk about your future plans." Su Dan asked.

"I still plan to move forward. But I need to find a place and make adequate preparations first."

Yu Hong felt the renewal of his own magical power. After understanding it in detail, the differentiated magical power began to strengthen everything in himself more carefully.

The efficiency of mana has also increased a lot. Things that previously required two mana to do now only require one.

"Okay, young people are full of energy, just go ahead." Su Dan laughed a few times, and the laughter gradually faded away, and there was no more movement.

Yu Hong let out a breath and briefly explained the current situation to Quan He.

"I agree. Our current strength is too weak and we can't do anything. Instead of running around blindly, we might as well find a place to concentrate on practicing. The great nirvana will not come immediately." Quan He nodded.

"Well, let's stay in the City of Darkness for a while." After experiencing powerlessness many times, Yu Hong thought hard and decided not to leave for the time being. He would try every possible way to strengthen his cultivation to the extreme before taking action.

In this way, we will not be helpless when faced with desperate situations.

Practice first, then explore, to find hope in the land of vitality!
After determining the goal, both of them were action-oriented and quickly returned to the training room to practice with all their might.

Apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, even sleeping is skipped, and sleep is replaced directly with a semi-trance state.

Time passes day by day.

The two of them devoted themselves to practice and almost forgot everything. They stayed in the City of Darkness without moving. Occasionally, if they had any questions about practice, they would directly ask Su Dan. Su Dan was worried that no one was with him, so he was very happy and answered every question.

Although Quan He could not hear any sound, he was able to ask questions through Yu Hong's retelling.

In the blink of an eye, nearly two months have passed.

Yu Hong estimated the countdown, quickly apologized, and drove the Black Spirit away from the City of Darkness temporarily.

Quan He was still immersed in her cultivation, not caring about the outside world at all. She seemed to have entered a strange state of ecstasy. Her cultivation level was rising rapidly.

In just two months, she had already begun to condense the golden elixir and was about to condense the golden elixir. Yu Hong did not disturb her, but told Senior Su Dan to go and replenish supplies, and then returned to the depths of the storm.

puff.

In an instant, the black spirit that was resting deep in the storm became blurred for a moment, and returned to normal the next second.

The exterior of the entire safe house has not changed much, and the interior remains unchanged as well.

Only Yu Hong, sitting in the practice room, felt something different from before.

At this moment, he was holding a sheet of enhanced instructions that had just suddenly appeared in his hand, and was reading it carefully.

'The strengthening of the safe house is completed. The strength of the outer wall is upgraded to the Bernardo level of the Lingfang Empire, which is immune to damage below the immortal level. For attacks above the immortal level, the damage is reduced by 32% before collision.'

'Special Ability: Void Fusion (Can perfectly disguise and transform itself in any environment and blend into the environment without rejection. Cannot be detected by those below the Heavenly Human level of perception.)'

"No wonder the effect is becoming more and more abnormal during the five-month strengthening period. But it's not enough!" Yu Hong knew where he was going.

So, although the safe house is very strong, it is not enough, far from enough.

The celestial energy level corresponds to the Golden Immortal level. With this strength, plus the formation set up by the White Golden Immortal, the strength of the safe house is now off the charts.

Yu Hong thought for a while, and took out the source material that he had obtained from Senior Su Dan in the City of Darkness.

'Try this.'

With a hint of trepidation and anticipation in his heart, he reached out and pressed his hand on the source essence.

'Strengthen the essence. Direction: Toxin to humans.'

It is his usual procedure to check if there are any hidden dangers first.

"No toxin for humans. Cannot be strengthened." The feedback from the black seal also began again.

Yu Hong kept checking each item until he was completely sure that there was no problem. Then he put it on the floor and pressed it on the ground with his hand.

'Strengthen the safe house, direction: fuse the source material, and upgrade freely.'

The black line quickly flowed into the ground, and the feedback sound that Yu Hong was expecting soon sounded.

'Do you want to reinforce the safe house?'

The countdown then appeared on the ground.

He looked intently.

‘114年3月7日11时45分。’

There are both zeros and integers, and it’s very real.

Yu Hong stood up silently and took the source material. He now understood the value of this thing that even Senior Su Dan thought was useless.

It takes so much time to integrate it into the safe house.

He removed the source material again, and took some random things and stacked them up to strengthen the current safe house. The countdown showed that it was only more than six months.

Then he added the Essence, and the time became 114 years again.
"Sure enough, this thing is hard to deal with!" After more than a hundred years, he has no idea how far he has cultivated. Does he still need it?
Temporarily giving up the idea of ​​integrating the source essence, Yu Hong controlled the safe house to return to the City of No Light, and then began to strengthen his external eye.

In fact, he has a lot of things that can be strengthened, but he has never calmed down and concentrated on dealing with them before. Now that he has some free time, the progress has begun to improve.

After taking off the eyes, Yu Hong held them in his hands, and suddenly an idea came to him.

'Wait, what if I strengthen the Royal Golden Eye and the External Eye together? What will happen?'

Yu Hong had an idea and did it as soon as he thought of it. He immediately put his eyeball and the royal golden eye forehead ornament together.

His eyes are now very strong, with a hardness no different from stone, and will not be damaged if they are hit.

'Strengthen the outer eye, direction: random.'

Yu Hong used his consciousness to bring the two things together and began to strengthen them.

A black line flows out from the back of the hand and merges into the outer eye.

Soon the countdown appeared: March 3th, 11:4 am.

"Is it really possible?!" Yu Hong was looking forward to it.

The Royal Family's Golden Eyes were undoubtedly very powerful, and could directly defend against any damage below the Golden Immortal level. The External Eyes had also evolved to a very high level, comparable to the eyes of the top Immortal Generals in the Spiritual Disaster.

I don’t know what wonderful changes will happen when the two are combined.

Hei Yin's questioning voice soon sounded, and Yu Hong quickly confirmed it, then separated the two objects and put the outer eye back into the eye socket.

He had tried it before. Once the range of the two strengthened things was determined, no matter where they were placed, they would disappear at the moment the strengthening ended. Only the strengthened things would remain.

He once thought about using this method, perhaps to do some no-cost business at certain special times.

But I haven't found the opportunity yet.

Strengthening began again, and life returned to the boring state of training as before.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.

dong dong dong.

Suddenly, there was a gentle knock on the door of Yu Hong's practice room.

"Come in." Yu Hong knew who it was without having to guess. He opened his eyes and looked towards the door.

With a click, he used his magic power to open the door lock.
