Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 646 Four Source Veins! (Seeking monthly votes)
After reading the message, Lin Qi glanced at his account balance.

The Xia Kingdom still has tens of billions of Xia Kingdom currency, which can bring in billions of Xia Kingdom currency every month.

However, I can't buy cultivation resources that are useful to me.

As for merit points, there are still several million, which is equivalent to several hundred Deep Space Coins.

As for Deepspace Coin, he still has over 5, so you could say he's extremely poor right now.

Lin Qi opened the official website and began to review the various rules of the Deep Space Genius Competition.

"In the first round, the galaxy selection, only 1000 people will be able to enter the second round."

"The top 1000 contestants will receive different rewards based on their ranking. The higher the ranking, the greater the reward. If you can make it into the top 16, you will receive millions of Deep Space Coins..."

Lin Qi's eyes lit up when he saw it. With his current strength, he could easily make it into the top 100 in the Triangulum Galaxy, if not the Lieyang Star Region.

If you can get millions of Deep Space Coins, you can buy several Source Crystals.

Then he started looking at the second round of selections, from the Blazing Sun Star Region.

When I saw that the top-ranked players could receive tens of millions of Deep Space Coins in rewards, I was immediately tempted.

The reward was ten times that of the first round, and with this money, he could cultivate to the peak of the Sky Soaring Realm.

Then he looked at the third and final round, which brought together the top geniuses from hundreds of star regions for the final competition.

Lin Qi had a premonition that geniuses with special physical qualities would also appear.

"The top 1 to 3000 geniuses will receive anywhere from hundreds of millions to tens of millions of Deep Space Coins."

"You can also choose to join the supreme power."

Upon seeing this, Lin Qi couldn't help but gasp.

Hundreds of millions of Deep Space Coins?
The final reward is incredibly generous; not only can you join the supreme faction, but you can also receive hundreds of millions of Deep Space Coins.

This amount of money was so much that he suspected he wouldn't lack money even at the second level of the universe.

What a generous act!
He absolutely must get this money!
……

The next day, in the capital city, at the headquarters of the Crimson Sky Martial Arts Hall.

In a spacious reception room, Lin Qi received a silver metal box from Yi Ming, the head of the trading department.

Manager Yi laughed:
"Golden Emperor, there are 29 days left until the Deep Space Genius Competition. This time, our Blue Star civilization is counting on you."

Lin Qi smiled as he put the metal box away, saying:

"Deep Space Genius Competition: A Gathering of Geniuses!"

"Under pressure and stress, I can only do my best to avoid bringing shame to Earth."

half an hour later

After saying goodbye to Supervisor Yi, Lin Qi returned to Tianhai City alone in the Falcon fighter jet.

He sent a message to his parents, saying that he would be in seclusion for several days and not to be disturbed, before finally returning to his martial arts room.

He sat cross-legged and glanced at the number of applicants on the Deep Space Institute's official website. In less than 24 hours, the number of applicants had exceeded 1 million, and the number was rising rapidly.

Judging from this upward trend, the number of applicants will most likely exceed that of the previous year.

Just looking at the number of applicants, Lin Qi felt a sense of urgency and pressure.

"Buzz!"

His spatial bracelet lit up, and in the next instant, a silver metal box appeared in his hand.

The silver box was opened, revealing two items embedded inside.

Golden source energy crystals, and 50% pure soul essence containing black liquid.

Lin Qi took out the source energy crystal that emitted golden light, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it.

Then put away the metal box.

He sat cross-legged and began to digest the source energy crystals within his body by circulating the "Golden Emperor's Secret Manual".

"boom!"

The immense energy within the energy crystal, like a dam releasing water, bursts forth in one go.

"receive!"

Lynch was already familiar with this, and his tough internal organs could withstand the impact.

Most importantly, he has two source veins, which are condensed in his internal organs.

As the immense source energy was released, the three source energy channels within the body emerged.

The 36 acupoints have already condensed into a network, absorbing the source vein, and are beginning to condense the fourth source vein.

The first source meridian is located at Baihui, the second source meridian is located at Tanzhong, the third source meridian is located at Shenque, and the fourth source meridian is located at Mingmen, specifically in the lower back area.

He felt a heat rising in his lower back, as the source energy within his body was absorbed, causing his cells to transform and become the source energy belonging to Lin Qi's mind.

The source energy is made to also have a metallic property, and then through the cultivation technique, it is condensed into a powerful force.

The condensation of the source energy vein requires the interplay of internal energy, like strands of golden silk weaving together 12 acupoints to condense a brand new source energy vein.

The entire process of condensation takes a long time.

Lin Qi was also prepared and patiently began to cultivate.

He carefully observed the changes in his body, and the power of the Golden Body was also circulating within him.

His muscles, tendons, and every inch of him have undergone a transformation, flowing with a unique power and containing the sharp edge of gold.

The entire body is like forged metal; the human body itself is a miracle of life, containing the power of countless laws.

His Golden Body, a physique naturally suited to the laws of metal, means that he now needs to comprehend the laws of metal.

It would be even better if one could glean insights from the power within oneself.

As he watched, it continuously transformed into his accumulated knowledge.

They were just waiting for the day when, after accumulating enough knowledge, he could break through that thin layer of paper and fully comprehend the power of the laws.

His understanding of the rules is too vague right now.

Even with his amazing comprehension, he was only 22 years old, too young.

There's not enough accumulated knowledge.

Many people have spent thousands of years trying to break through to the Sky Soaring Realm, yet they still cannot comprehend it.

They lack comprehension, and even after breaking through to the second realm of the universe, they still cannot comprehend it.

Lin Qi believed that given some time, he could fully grasp it.

Unfortunately, the Deep Space Genius Tournament waits for no one, so he can only unleash his potential by constantly clashing with other geniuses in the competition.

Accumulate power rapidly, then consume the Vine Blood Potion to allow yourself to unleash your full potential and break through to the sixth rank.

But it's too early to say all that now.

What he needs to do now is to condense the fourth source vein.

……

In the blink of an eye, seven days later,
Inside the martial arts room, a terrifying pressure enveloped every corner, like forging divine weapons. Lin Qi's body radiated dazzling golden light. Each ray of golden light was like a sharp blade, constantly cutting through the surrounding walls.

"Chong-"

In just five days, the walls were covered with all sorts of marks.

"Whoo~"

Lin Qi felt the fourth source vein in his body fully formed, and a continuous stream of power surged out from within him, flowing through his blood to every part of his body.

As the source vein condensed, it was as if his body had gained an extra organ.

Improving physical fitness is just the foundation, allowing him to mobilize his source energy and control his power more smoothly.

"boom!"

A terrifying pressure was released, spreading outwards like a giant wave.

Lin Qi felt the power flowing within his body.

His physical fitness improved significantly, and his stats on the panel began to change.

[You have absorbed the Source Energy Crystal and successfully condensed your fourth Source Vein. Your physical body has undergone a transformation, your physical attributes have been greatly improved, and your Qi and Blood value has increased by 1200.]

[Your skill level has improved; template integration accuracy increased by 0.1%]

[Qi and Blood Value: 65555 → 66755]

[Template: Erlang Shen - Yang Jian]

[Integration rate: 48.9% → 49.0%]

……

As Lin Qi watched the data improve, he had already condensed four source veins in the blink of an eye.

To achieve this in just two years speaks volumes about his talent.

However, this only narrowed the gap in the number of Origin Veins between him and other geniuses.

Then he looked at the template integration.

More than three years have passed since his last awakening and transformation.

The integration rate has finally reached 49%.
It's only 1% away from the final 50%.
With a little effort, we can transform ourselves again within the next few years.

He was also looking forward to it, because every time the source vein gathered at the center of his forehead, a power was being nurtured within it.

As time went on, its power grew stronger and stronger.

He had no doubt that with a 50% fusion rate, he would open his Heavenly Eye.

Of course, with a 50% fusion rate, it's unlikely that the fully realized Heavenly Eye will awaken.

Even if it's only one-tenth, he can still make a fortune.

Not only that, his physical talent and comprehension will also be greatly enhanced.

Once awakened, his combat power will be greatly enhanced.

In this Deep Space Genius Competition, he'd better awaken his powers by the third round.

Otherwise, he would have no way to defeat the geniuses from other star regions.

His current talent is only slightly better than that of a star-domain level genius; there is no qualitative difference between them.

In the hundreds of star fields of the human race, every hundred years, there will definitely be someone who awakens a special physique.

If his opponent is a Star Domain level genius at the peak of the Sky Realm.

If someone is better than him in every aspect, then he really has no way to defeat them.

Therefore, we still need to find ways to narrow the gap.

……

A moment later, Lin Qi changed into a black martial arts uniform and leisurely entered the living room.

"elder brother!!"

Lin Xiao and Lin Zhaoyue, who were watching TV on the living room sofa, waved to Lin Qi when they saw him.

Lin Qi patted his younger siblings' heads.

Xiaotian was sleeping on the ground nearby.

"Xiao Qi, have you finished your cultivation?" Lin Zhen, the father, asked curiously.

Lin Qi nodded and said, "My strength has made a small breakthrough!"

Lin Zhen laughed and said, "Xiao Qi, the college entrance exams are over while you were in seclusion!"

"And the official organizers are also promoting the Deep Space Genius Tournament!"

"In a month, most people on Earth will probably see you competing."

Lin Qi asked in surprise, "Everyone knows?"

Mom Fang Huiyi laughed and said, "That's right, everyone knows!"

"When the time comes, our whole family will cheer you on!"

Lin Qi nodded, feeling a bit of pressure.

If we lose the game, it will be embarrassing.

After a brief chat with his family to relax, he returned to the martial arts room.

As the Deep Space Genius Tournament progressed, he no longer planned to go to the Black Dragon Base.

Let's finish the competition at home first.

"Buzz!"

"Brother Qi, have you finished your cultivation?"

"You don't know, the number of applicants from the Triangulum Galaxy alone has already exceeded 2 million. Liu Ming said that the number of applicants this year may exceed one billion."

"The competition will be even fiercer than in previous years!"

Lin Qi felt the pressure as he listened to Jiang Tao's words on the other side of the screen.

The larger the base, the more geniuses will emerge.

"Brother Qi, I'm going to cultivate!"

Jiang Tao on the other end of the line hung up the phone.

Lin Qi knew that Jiang Tao was also under a lot of pressure. He broke through too late, and if he didn't work hard, he might not be able to get into the second round.

Lin Qi knew to turn on his virtual bracelet and log into the cosmic virtual network.

He needs to test his current abilities.
