Chapter 709 The Road to the Peak
Chen Guan failed to find an opportunity to absorb energy during this operation, and his level remained at 54.

However, he was not in a hurry. With the Creation World at his disposal, advancing to level 60 was only a matter of time. He could already start preparing for the Seventh Awakening.

Generally speaking, there are three main factors that can awaken the seven senses regarding what secret laws.

Firstly, there is personal talent, which, like innate talent, is largely determined by one's genes.

However, unlike innate talents that are purely determined by personal genes, the laws of mystery are not purely determined by genes.

Therefore, the second condition is the secret method of cultivation and one's own understanding of the secret method.

Chen Guan had difficulty leveling up before, but he was reluctant to switch to a different secret technique because he wanted to use the first secret technique to complete the Seven Awakenings and see what kind of secret law he could awaken.

Of course, the influence of arcane arts on arcane laws only accounts for one-third.

The last third of the factors depends on one's own understanding and insight.

However, enlightenment does not come from nothing. Even a skilled cook cannot make a meal without rice, and people cannot imagine an abstract thing they have never seen before.

Therefore, to gain enlightenment, one needs a foundation.

The source of this foundation is not truth, nor does it require genuine realization like the second secret.

It's less a realization and more a flash of inspiration, or even a figment of the imagination.

It doesn't need to be based on sound reasoning, nor does it need to be profound, and it doesn't even need to follow objective laws.

There was once a powerful expert from a great cave realm. During his seventh awakening, he had a flash of inspiration because he saw a fruit tree laden with fruit. He suddenly had a whimsical thought: how wonderful it would be if the tree were full of rare and precious treasures.

Who knew that he would have such a flash of inspiration that he would awaken on the spot and obtain the secret law of the planter of rare and precious trees. Any tree he planted, even if it was just the most ordinary fruit tree, would bear rare and precious materials.

This person caused a great uproar in China. He didn't realize the seriousness of the problem at first, so he told his wife about this secret law, and then she spread it around.

Later, all ten major families came knocking, wanting to compete for this cultivator.

Whether the practitioner died or not is unknown. No one mentioned the incident again afterward, so it is assumed that he is dead.

No one of the ten great families would give up on someone like him, nor would they tolerate him going to another family. So when his secrets were leaked and he was unable to protect himself, his fate was already sealed.

Most people keep their secrets to themselves, firstly to avoid others having any ideas, and secondly because if the enemy doesn't know their secrets, they will have a great advantage in battle.

Chen Guan has been thinking a lot lately about what kind of secret rules he should have.

While flashes of inspiration are difficult to control, there are precedents where they can be controlled.

There was once a person who conceived a thought in advance and then focused intently on it, eventually succeeding in awakening to the Seven Realms through that thought. The secret law of awakening is also related to this thought. Later, this method gradually became popular, and the ten great families have been researching it, each with their own secret techniques, but all of them are creations based on this kind of obsession.

Chen Guan didn't want to gamble on what kind of secret law he could obtain, so he wanted to first come up with a powerful idea, then try to turn that idea into an obsession, and finally awaken the secret law related to that idea.

However, since a flash of inspiration only accounts for one-third of the reasons for the formation of a Secret Law, even Secret Laws related to this thought are unlikely to be exactly as you expect; they just have fewer chances of producing useless Secret Laws.

Chen Guan had considered whether to create a secret law that could kill with a single glance, such as anyone he could see would die.

With this combination of Sora and Sora, it means that if I can see you, you will die; if I can't see you, you will still die. Wouldn't that make you invincible?
But then I thought about it, and realized that this secret law was uncontrollable. What if I glanced at my own friends or family? That would be the end of me.

Moreover, the laws of secrets cannot possibly appear exactly as he desires. If there are any further changes and things develop in a bad direction, then everything will be over.

For example, if the story changed from seeing someone die to seeing someone get pregnant, Chen Guan would be devastated.

This is entirely possible, because one's own genes are uncontrollable, and there are no predecessors to refer to regarding the impact of the Secret Method on the Secret Laws; the randomness is too high.

Therefore, Chen Guan needed to seize this only controllable point and must come up with a good idea.

"If I call someone's name, that person will die. How about that? From now on, if I see an enemy, I'll call out to them. If I call your name, will you dare to answer?" Chen Guan thought about it and felt a little excited.

But then I dismissed the idea. What if I called out my lover's name when things got really emotional? That would be painful.

"It's really hard to come up with an idea." After leaving the cave, Chen Guan planned to go back to Ziyang City first to see if anything was wrong there, so as to avoid being ambushed by the Gong family again like last time, when he was unable to return in time.

Fortunately, nothing really happened this time. However, to Chen Guan's surprise, Jin Taohua actually left and returned to Abyss City.

Chen Guan received the letter Jin Taohua left him, which read: "We are both people who refuse to accept fate. I cannot take you as my heaven, nor can you take me as your heaven. In the end, we cannot live in harmony like ordinary people. Rather than end up in a situation where two tigers fight, it is better to go our separate ways and live peacefully."

"Your development and that of Ziyang City have given me a lot of inspiration. I'm going to go my own way now. I will develop Abyss City into a power that is no less than Ziyang City, so that the ten great families will no longer dare to have any ideas about Abyss City. When we meet again in the future, perhaps you should call me Your Majesty."

"Of course, it is also possible that we will never meet again. When the Abyss City is established, that will be the day I ascend to the Great Cave Heaven."

"During the time I've spent with you, I've come to understand life more clearly. Rather than living like this, I'd rather let go of everything like you and live authentically. Even if that Great Cave Heaven is a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire, I will fight my way out of it. I will stand atop the Heavenly Void Palace, crush the Gong family into hell, and then ask that Heavenly King Gong if he has any regrets..."

Among these comments, Chen Guan seemed to see Jin Taohua's unrestrained and vibrant spirit.

"The stars should shine in the heavens, not be hidden under rooftops." Chen Guan reached out and lit a flame, burning the letter to ashes, letting the ashes drift out the window.

He also wanted to go to the Great Cave Heaven. Without reaching the Ninth Awakening, it would be difficult to ascend to the summit. If he wanted to make a decision about the world with a single word, he had to become the only person on that summit who could see the scenery of the world.
