Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

After completing the baptism, Lin Yi was thrown directly back to the Samsara Paradise from the void.

After returning to his exclusive room, Lin Yi crawled on the ground for more than ten minutes before gradually coming to his senses.

The experience of being teleported directly from the void was simply terrible. In Lin Yi's own words, it was like being hung on the outside of the head of a high-speed train that was constantly accelerating, and the fragments produced by the collapse of space kept passing by Lin Yi.

If it weren't for the protection of the Samsara Paradise, with Lin Yi's current physical condition, he would definitely be cut into pieces by those space fragments.

Lin Yi was teleported back in this way under the rain of knives. He really didn't want to experience this feeling a second time.

Half an hour later, Lin Yi lay down in the skill improvement chamber and began to prepare to improve several core skills.

【Please select the skill you want to upgrade. 】

[Yes/No: Improve the Sword Master Level 13. To improve this ability, you need Soul Crystal (Complete) × 1 + 90000 Paradise Coins. ]

Lin Yi feels that the cost of upgrading the current Grandmaster-level skills is already very affordable. 9 Paradise Coins is basically the same as giving it away for free. The bulk of the upgrade cost is spent on the Soul Crystal (complete).

Soul Crystal (Small) and Soul Crystal (Medium) have the same mass but different volumes, so Soul Crystal (Medium) can be decomposed into Soul Crystal (Small).

Soul Crystal (Large) belongs to another purity type. Even if it is shattered, what you get is only Soul Crystal (Large Fragment). It cannot be transformed into Soul Crystal (Medium).

As the universal hard currency in places like Samsara Paradise, the Void, and the Native World, Soul Crystal (Large) is the basic form of currency.

To be precise, Soul Crystal (Small) and Soul Crystal (Medium) are special products of the Samsara Paradise, and are diluted for use by low-level contractors.

Soul Crystals (small, medium) and Soul Crystals (large, complete) belong to different purchasing systems.

Because of this, there is no possibility of exchanging Soul Crystal (Large) and Soul Crystal (Medium), and Soul Crystal (Large) is more precious.

Compared with the previous two, the output of Soul Crystal (Large) is extremely rare and its formation conditions are more stringent.

For example, if the energy contained in the Soul Crystal (Medium) is 1 point, then the energy contained in the Soul Crystal (Large) is at least 120 points.

However, don't mistakenly think that the value of a Soul Crystal (Large) is 120 times that of a Soul Crystal (Medium). The two are neither interchangeable nor can they be decomposed.

In the Samsara Paradise, the number of low-level contractors is much greater than that of high-level contractors, and the market price is often determined by demand.

In the eyes of Level 1 to 3 contractors, Soul Crystal (Large) is indeed an extremely rare material, but they have no use for it at all, and the lack of demand means that its value will be reduced.

There is no problem exchanging it for Paradise Coins, but if you want to exchange it for Soul Crystal (Medium) or (Small), then you have to rely on luck. No one dares to open up such a trading channel, otherwise they may go bankrupt.

The contractor who really needs the Soul Crystal (Big) must be at least level 4 or above.

This resulted in a situation where the reference price of Soul Crystal (Small) was 1 Paradise Coins, but the value of Soul Crystal (Large) was not 1200 million Paradise Coins. This was because the two were targeting completely different audiences and could not be converted into each other, so their values ​​were naturally different, and no Chamber of Commerce dared to build a platform specifically for trading Soul Crystals.

Nothing is absolute in this world. Those mentally retarded businessmen of Hongfeng have created similar conversion channels, but they lost more than 2 million Paradise Coins in just 500 hours, and then the platform went bankrupt.

The reference price of Soul Crystal (Large) is around 30 to 40 Paradise Coins. After all, it cannot be circulated among Level 1 to 3 contractors, but its actual transaction price range is very large. If a high-level contractor urgently needs Soul Crystal (Large) to improve his ability, then even if it is sold for 130 million Paradise Coins, the other party will have to accept it with a pinch of the nose.

If you use four Soul Crystals (Medium) to exchange for one Soul Crystal (Large) from a high-level contractor, the response you get will be the same, which is to get lost.

Sometimes, equal value does not mean that they can be exchanged with each other, and the real-time price fluctuations of soul crystals are too drastic.

This thing is a consumable resource and a hard currency, but it is not as stable as the base currency.

In comparison, the purchasing power of Paradise Coin is extremely stable, and can be said to be as solid as Mount Tai and unshakable.

Soul Crystal (Small) and Soul Crystal (Medium) have the same mass but different weights.

Soul Crystal (Medium) and Soul Crystal (Large) have the same weight but different masses.

Soul Crystal (Large) and Soul Crystal (Complete) have the same mass but different weights.

……

Soul Crystal (small): Contains 1.2~1.3 soul energy.

Soul Crystal (Medium): Contains 11 to 12 soul energies.

Soul Crystal (Large): Contains about 1200-1300 soul energy (the soul energy inside is extremely pure, and requires strong physical fitness and soul strength to withstand).

Soul Crystal (complete): contains about 12500-13000 soul energy (the soul energy inside is extremely pure, and requires strong physical fitness and soul strength to withstand).

……

Soul Crystal (Small): Reference price: 1 Paradise Coins.

Soul Crystal (Medium): Reference price: 10 Paradise Coins.

Soul Crystal (Large): Reference price: 30 to 40 Paradise Coins (price fluctuations are extremely large).

Soul Crystal (complete): reference price 400 million to 600 million Paradise Coins.

As the four soul crystals (completely) shattered, the soul energy inside entered Lin Yi's body and began to nourish Lin Yi's body and soul.

At the same time, Lin Yi's consciousness was brought to a place similar to a spaceship.

After he looked clearly at the time displayed in the room, Lin Yi was shocked to find that he was now in the First Era.

There is a huge difference between the void environment of the first era and the void environment of the current era.

It is said that in the First Era, one could travel freely between the planets in the void simply by driving a spaceship.

In the following era, the void underwent a drastic change, resulting in the formation of partitions in the space.

Each planet does not seem to be far away from each other, but without special means, it is impossible to fly from one planet to another.

Even if a spaceship is successfully developed, it can only move continuously within the world and cannot leave the world at all.

Just like the Saiyan spaceship in Dragon Ball, even if it has the technology to travel through the universe, according to the judgment standards of Samsara Paradise, it is still in the Dragon Ball world.

Even though the distance between planets is extremely far, they have never been able to escape the scope of this world.

At this time, Lin Yi noticed that there was a well-maintained sword placed on his right hand side, and there was an invitation letter next to the sword.

The letter invited the Ancient One to go to the planet Beialik to participate in the battle for the Sword Master. So it seems that the Ancient One mentioned in the letter is the person that Lin Yi is currently possessed by.

Just as Lin Yi put down the envelope, the entire spacecraft seemed to have encountered some kind of attack, and then Lin Yi's consciousness was kicked into the audience seats.

Afterwards, Ancient One's consciousness returned and he regained control of his body.

"Everyone on the spaceship, listen up. We pirates are only interested in money and not life. But if anyone dares to resist, don't blame us for being merciless."

A strong and powerful male voice came through the spacecraft broadcast.

Not long after, a group of bald men in power armor appeared in every corner of the spacecraft.

This spaceship is of civilian nature. Although it is equipped with weapons, it is obviously far inferior to the equipment of the pirate group.

As soon as the two sides encountered each other, the spaceship's security forces were quickly defeated by the pirate group.

Just one minute later, the entire ship's command room fell completely into the hands of the enemy.

Just when everyone on the ship thought that the pirates would only take property, the pirates finally showed their fangs, raised their butcher knives and indiscriminately slaughtered the civilians on the ship.

For these pirates, doing this business is risking their lives, and their heads could be chopped off at any time. The pirates said that before, just to prevent the people on the ship from gathering to resist. If they can't take over the ship in a short time, there will be troubles in the future.

Now that they have successfully taken control of the spaceship, the pirates will naturally kill all those who have seen their true faces.

When Ancient Saint heard the screams coming from the corridor, he walked out of the room with his sword in hand.

Several pirates in power armor were banging on other cabin doors. The passengers in the cabins had already collapsed on the ground out of fear. They all knew very well what terrible consequences they would face if these pirates broke in.

"Huh? There are actually people who volunteer to die. Hey, go and get rid of that pretentious guy. The boss has given us an hour to loot the property, and we have to blow up this spaceship in an hour." After hearing the order, a pirate's power armor began to spew steam and rushed towards the direction where Lin Yi was.

Ancient Saint did nothing but raised the sword in his hand and made a simple straight stab. Then the opponent's power armor turned into a piece of scrap metal in Ancient Saint's hand, and then fell straight to the ground.

Perhaps considering that there were other civilians on the ship, Ancient Saint did not use his skills that covered a large area, and just killed his way to the vicinity of the cabin.

Along the way, no pirate could stop Ancient One from using his second sword, and all of them were easily killed by him with a single sword.

Before Ancient One Saint could open the door of the command room, a rocket exploded directly in the face of him, and the captain of the pirate group rushed out wearing a high-tech mecha.

After seeing the appearance of Ancient One Saint on the surveillance camera just now, the captain of the pirate group recognized his identity.

Ancient One came from the remote planet Inter, and was a renowned swordsman. He once pacified an insect plague on an entire planet with just his sword, and because of this, he was named the swordsman.

The captain of the pirate group never imagined that such a powerful figure would appear on such an ordinary civilian spaceship. He just felt that he was really unlucky.

Taking advantage of the smoke produced by the rocket explosion, the captain of the pirate group quickly passed by Ancient Saint. He knew very well that he was no match for Ancient Saint, and the only way to survive was to escape from here quickly.

"Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up!" At this moment, the mecha worn by the pirate has entered the load state, and the power furnace also made strange noises, and it may explode at any time due to the heavy load.

But just as the pirate captain was about to reach the bridge connecting the two ships, he was surprised to find that Ancient One had already arrived on the bridge at some point.

Ancient One Saint slowly raised the sword in his hand. His seemingly ordinary action did not cause any special movement, but a sword energy burst out from the tip of his sword and instantly penetrated the pirate ship opposite.

This sword energy did not dissipate after piercing through the pirate ship, but continued to rush towards an uninhabited planet in the distance, and then pierced through the uninhabited planet and directly detonated the planet.

For a moment, an extremely dazzling and shocking light burst out in the space.

"This is..." As the saying goes, the layman sees the excitement, while the expert sees the details.

After Lin Yi possessed the body of Ancient Saint, he could clearly see every move of Ancient Saint.

Ancient One Saint's swordsmanship is different from Lin Yi and Su Xiao's movements. When Lin Yi and Su Xiao display their skills, they often carry a majestic momentum of opening and closing, but they don't pay much attention to the control of energy. This makes it so that when the two of them fight, the sword energy and sword light often fly everywhere, and the power is not concentrated.

Ancient One Saint is completely different. He always uses all his strength and can use it just right. Therefore, when fighting with others, his strength will not dissipate, and all of it will act accurately on the target.

It is also for this reason that when Ancient One kills people, he does not give others the sense of oppression that is commonly felt by strong people. It is as if he is just doing an ordinary thing, but with an unexpectedly deadly effect.

If Lin Yi used the same move, the metal floor of the spaceship would definitely crack, which just showed that Lin Yi was unable to concentrate his strength.

To an outsider, Lin Yi's move was quite impressive, but in the eyes of an expert, Lin Yi would waste a lot of strength and energy by doing this.

After Ancient Saint's action just now, only a thin line appeared under his feet. This thin line was the trace left by Ancient Saint's sprint just now. It was enough to see that he controlled the strength extremely accurately and used the strength just right with almost no waste.

In the final analysis, Lin Yi's ability to control his own energy is not strong enough, and he is unable to be as flexible and precise as Ancient One.

This is also a characteristic of all the contractors in the Samsara Paradise. The contractors in the Paradise become stronger too quickly, and many of them have to take care of side jobs as well. As a result, they simply cannot spare any extra time to pay attention to such details.

The reason why low- and middle-level contractors can easily crush their peers in the void is actually very simple. The gap between the two sides in combat is too great.

The contractors were either fighting or on their way to fight. Fighting was commonplace for them. However, most of the younger generations in the void grew up slowly under the guidance of others and lacked actual combat training.

In terms of combat experience, contractors in the early and middle stages have an absolute advantage and are able to crush their Void peers.

After reaching a high level, the advantages brought by the contractor's combat experience are gradually weakened.

This resulted in the fact that, except for a few top contractors, the combat effectiveness of most contractors gradually failed to keep up with the overall rhythm, and the gap between them and the main force widened.

Only at a high level will many contractors have the energy to slowly consolidate their own attributes and improve their control over strength, so as to make up for their own shortcomings and continue to improve their strength.

The key to Ancient One Saint's action just now was to compress all his energy to a high degree at the tip of the sword, and in the process of sprinting forward, there was no leakage of energy. It was not until the moment of launching the attack that all the energy was released at once.

It is precisely because of this operation that the sword energy has such strong endurance and penetrating power.

"Okay, you've seen this sword, it's time to go." As Ancient Saint finished speaking, Lin Yi immediately realized that the environment he was in began to gradually break apart. Then, Lin Yi was thrown back by a force and returned to the skill upgrade warehouse.

[Sword Master: Lv.17 (Passive Skill)]

Skill effect: Increases the attack power of sword weapons by 378%, nerve reflex speed by +74%, can hinder energy attacks, and swordsmanship has the special effect of breaking armor.

Lin Yi paid no attention to the reminder from Samsara Paradise, but was completely immersed in the sword moves of Ancient One Saint.

Half an hour later, Lin Yi opened his eyes. At the same time, the aura on Lin Yi's body began to gradually dissipate, just like a tyrant who once looked down on the world, but suddenly turned into an unknown old man who had retired from the world.

The reason for this change is that Lin Yi is trying hard to control his own energy, trying not to let it leak out as much as possible, striving to be able to control and release energy freely like the Ancient One and use the energy to the extreme.

After more than half an hour of effort, Lin Yi is now barely able to keep his breath from leaking out.

However, this requires Lin Yi to hold his breath and concentrate. If he wants to be like Ancient Sage and prevent his own breath from leaking out with every move he makes, Lin Yi really can't do it for the time being.

However, this is at least a start, and for Lin Yi, this is undoubtedly good news.

All things are difficult at the beginning, and starting from zero foundation is the most difficult. But now, under the demonstration and guidance of Ancient Saint Yi, Lin Yi has successfully entered the door.

As long as time is given, with continuous practice and accumulation, Lin Yi will be able to reach the level of the Ancient Sage sooner or later.

Lin Yi let out a breath and stretched his body.

Ever since he started controlling his own energy and preventing it from leaking out, Lin Yi has been feeling uncomfortable all over.

This is just like breathing is a natural behavior for normal people, but Lin Yi now has to forcibly control his breathing to keep it in a stable state at all times.

Although doing this has not had much impact on him at the moment, he still feels that something is not right with that place, an indescribable strange feeling.

The next thing is the gold skill points. The last time Lin Yi invested 4 gold skill points into the [Abyss Circulation System], it has not yet transformed into an EX skill.

This time, Lin Yi planned to continue investing golden skill points into it, and was ready to keep investing until the [Abyss Circulation System] successfully transformed into an EX skill.

With the investment of 4 gold skill points, the [Abyss Circulation System] finally changed. Not only did the name of the skill change, but even its skill effect also underwent extremely significant changes.

[Life Circulation System (Passive) LV.EX]

Skill Effect 1: An energy circulation system that perfectly integrates the power of life and the power of the abyss. In the body, the power of the abyss will be dispersed throughout the body through a specific circulation path, thereby nourishing the power of life. Each time a cycle is completed, the purity of the essence of the power of life and the power of the abyss will be slightly improved.

Skill Effect 2: When receiving damage, the power of the abyss will be deducted as compensation, and health points will not be deducted until the power of the abyss is exhausted.

Skill Effect 3: The power of the abyss and the power of life have reached an extremely perfect fusion state, the health value increases by 50% of the power of the abyss, and the power of the abyss increases the health value by 50%.

As the [Abyss Circulation System] successfully transformed into the [Life Circulation System], the power of the abyss became a harmoniously coexisting part of Lin Yi's body.

Even if Lin Yi ignored it, the power of the abyss would no longer be hostile to Lin Yi's life force.

Of course, this is only the case for Lin Yi.

Once the power of the abyss is released outside the body, it is still very happy to devour the life force of other creatures. Its devouring nature has not changed, but it has become docile inside Lin Yi's body. (End of this chapter)
