Starting as an infant, with parents who are blond-haired delinquents?

He believes not; the fifth test, which takes place in the brain-like augmentation space, is even more thrilling.

Furthermore, it is difficult to make breakthroughs or adjustments.

However, during this process, after it triggered a dramatic change in the world,...

He is increasingly realizing that this current state is far more terrifying and difficult to continue than the spiritual energy infusion of the fifth test in the brain augmentation space.

Chapter 347 Effort and Reward

Time passed in the blink of an eye, even within the fifth assessment previously conducted within the brain-enhancing space…

The time spent there was even shorter.

However, after a period of time, he was able to truly feel the differences and similarities between the current situation and being in the brain-like amplification space.

The similarities and differences, compared to the current situation.

Zhang Chaoqiang was under the dragon's might and pressure from this dragon crystal core, which was now of the ancient bloodline level...

It has reached a special critical point.

In the process of raising and adjusting this special critical point.

Zhang Chaoqiang resolutely came to witness this extraordinary transformation of heaven and earth.

The magnitude and nature of this massive earthquake caused by the cataclysmic change in the heavens and earth, compared to other conditions…

Zhang Chaoqiang, who is currently at this level, has also resolutely reached a deeper level of improvement and formed a new milestone.

In this process of node formation and enhancement...

Compared to before…

The environment he is in now is much better than the situation in the brain-enhancing space.

So far, Leishe has been by his side, providing him with a certain degree of protection and assistance.

This helps him absorb the nutrients without feeling threatened about his life.

Or perhaps it's a source of distress...

After all, faced with the tribulations, Zhang Chaoqiang, at this particular juncture and in this process of formation, has resolutely stepped into a new realm and state.

However, Zhang Chaoqiang was in such a detailed situation.

This decisive action made Lei She feel that something was not quite right.

Because at this moment, Zhang Chaoqiang has reached a critical juncture in the formation and regulation process between the first and second stages.

The first stage involves transforming the pressure from those dragon-like auras—that is, the ancient bloodline-level dragon crystal cores—into spiritual energy that one can absorb.

Or perhaps it's due to this increase in energy...

It is actually a gradual process.

Whether it's converting that energy into one's own power, or facing the oppressive force of that dragon crystal core.

To truly transform it into one's own power.

In this state, the time and timeframes that need to be navigated are actually very difficult and worth mentioning.

It is worth mentioning that during this process, what Rescher saw was his struggle and perseverance.

Because he knew that Zhang Chaoqiang was experiencing such terrifying spiritual pressure, and that this was under the influence of a forming node.

Zhang Chaoqiang faces a heavier burden compared to others.

Because he is currently resonating with that ancient bloodline-level dragon crystal core.

It is a state achieved through a process of mutual resonance and coordinated vibration.

The resolute determination is precisely what allows one to achieve such a terrifying transformation of heaven and earth while being immersed in it.

The dramatic changes in the world were vividly displayed during this process.

And below this entire stage…

Whether it's Zhang Chaoqiang or anyone else.

The abilities they were able to grasp and the trials they endured while in that situation…

Compared to Zhang Chaoqiang, this situation and capability condition were insignificant.

Because of Zhang Chaoqiang's position, the changes he caused to the heavens and earth resonated greatly with the earth.

Furthermore, under the spiritual impact of the earthquake, Zhang Chaoqiang, who was at the center, experienced twice the force of the earthquake compared to the others.

Their strength and impact are more than twice that of theirs.

In addition, they also lose a full 50% during each protection and guardianship process.

So, after all that calculation, the impact of the Flood Dragon Crystal Core that Gu Yizheng, Wu Yun, and Ma Chao endured was actually only slightly amplified.

Under the impact of such a large earthquake, the force of the complete earthquake was twice that of Zhang Chaoqiang, creating a terrifying situation.

After the reduction, the impact they experienced was only one-quarter of that under normal circumstances.

Even a 1/4 situation represents an extreme degree of tearing and destruction to their bodies.

Amidst this intense and terrifying destructive power…

Their actions and attacks at this moment have resolutely reached a new level.

In this new level of process, he truly arrived at a more terrifying state and the conditions for its formation.

Whether it's Zhang Chaoqiang or the other two contestants, their current state has undergone a profound change.

The changes and differences between them are enormous, and this is indeed reflected in the present day.

In fact, having too much affinity with this ancient bloodline-level dragon crystal core isn't entirely a good thing.

However, this process of forming a node is not a good thing, especially since it involves absorbing the dragon crystal core.

By focusing on improving in this area, whether it's Zhang Chaoqiang or the other two...

The personal abilities and states they achieved within this environment represent a profound transformation compared to other contestants.

Because in the process of changing one's personal state and forming a turning point, whether it is Zhang Chaoqiang or others, they are in the process of forming a turning point.

They resolutely embarked on a deeper level of change.

Now Lei She finally understands why Zhang Chaoqiang was able to withstand such a huge test.

Being inside the brain-amplified space, I had previously heard him describe the dangers within it, and the terror of the assessment...

He couldn't even fully imagine the scene and the imagery.

And it comes to mind.

Or perhaps the image is displayed right in front of one's eyes.

However, in this respect, he was finally able to understand and empathize with the trials that Zhang Chaoqiang had gone through.

Because everything becomes extremely difficult in front of Zhang Chaoqiang, as this is a test and a blow to a strong person.

The stronger Zhang Chaoqiang became, the more intense the targeting of heaven and earth against him became.

Furthermore, the dragon crystal core resonates with him, which can only be said to greatly enhance the dragon crystal core, gradually increasing its affinity within his body.

And it can become a part of his body, but that doesn't mean anything else.

Zhang Chaoqiang is able to gain more benefits from this ancient bloodline-level dragon crystal core.

Having grown and improved to this stage, Zhang Chaoqiang is currently in a rather awkward situation.

Because of this ancient bloodline-level dragon crystal core, his body resonated with it to a certain extent and his affinity was enhanced.

The only improvement is that he can absorb a derivative martial skill from it.

However, in another situation, namely the first assessment or the connection and process between the first and second assessments.

The complete transformation and realization after the second assessment also brought me to a more uncomfortable state.

Because it caused an anomaly in the heavens and earth.

In the process of causing such a dramatic change in the world.

The pressure and impact exerted on Zhang Chaoqiang by the earth were more severe than those on others.

Whether in the external environment or the internal environment, within Zhang Chaoqiang's body, including his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, various internal organs, bones, ribs, and other tendons and meridians...

They must withstand the fierce impact and tearing blows of this dragon crystal core.

In addition to the external environment of the body, one must also endure the changes in the world around one.

Under the detailed process of the changes in the world, Zhang Chaoqiang resolutely upgraded his full set of equipment and improved his abilities.

Whether it's putting all of one's understanding into this dragon crystal core...

Externally, that is, on the surface of one's own body, one still needs to withstand this powerful impact.

Supported by this impact, he resolutely felt an unprecedented shock and terror.

Amidst this terrifying situation, Zhang Chaoqiang has reached an even more chilling level and state, and he is currently undergoing further trials.

They are no longer comparable to each other, as they were before the cataclysmic changes that occurred in the world.

Because Zhang Chaoqiang's current position and situation can no longer be measured by the same methods as before.

After all, within such a precise process and state, the two parties that can achieve this have resolutely entered into a deeper level of competition and change.

In this changed state, the behaviors and habits that anyone can achieve have inevitably entered into a deeper level of competition and comparison.

At this deeper level, the fifth test in the brain-enhancing space, namely the spiritual energy impact, was no longer a problem for him.

Because he is no longer the same person he used to be.

However, after triggering the cataclysmic changes in the world, Zhang Chaoqiang needs to withstand both the internal and external environments, namely the damage to his internal organs, bones, and meridians.

And the impact and pressure that one's own skin and other parts need to withstand.

This means it is an even more terrifying and powerful existence than before.

After all, in such a process, after causing a change in the world, he had to endure the first and second stages.

The impact of external conditions that one needs to experience during the process of absorbing and refining this ancient bloodline-level dragon crystal core.
