Chapter 436: No Cheating, Oh Wait…

The moment the reset happened, Xiang Yu’s soul was busy trying to complete the last step of building the bridge between his soul and body.

He thought he might not make it, but just as the reset came, he finished the final step, completing the entire process. Now all that remained was the integration process. He reminded himself not to worry about this since it would happen naturally before he broke through to the tribulation realm.

Just like how his bloodlines would prevent/delay a breakthrough, it was probably the same for this.

In the real world, Xiang Yu had instantly entered the state of enlightenment after the cooldown was reset. Inside this enlightened state, he sat perfectly still in meditation. This time, he wasn’t going to cheat his way through but would try his best to capture as much understanding as he could from the system.

He felt massive amounts of experience begin flowing into his body, causing him to tense up. He then began rapidly analyzing the concept.

Although the concept was far more complicated than anything he had encountered before, it didn’t matter – he just had to grasp even a small piece of it. Through this, he continuously absorbed insights from the system, strengthening his absolute source law.

At some point, the experience flow stopped, but he didn’t stop.

He continued digesting the insights he had gained before they could disappear. He stayed in this state for about an hour before finally opening his eyes.

He wore a wide smile – he had succeeded and harvested big this time. The source of this content ɪs novel·fire.net

He had broken through to the resonance realm.

This was approximately twenty-six percent law mastery. He exhaled deeply, thinking to himself that this was excellent progress.

He wondered what laws he should unlock next.

As he was wondering this, he suddenly felt something begin to shift within his body. It was happening in his soul as well.

He looked at the flow of his energy and assumed it was probably his body wanting to undergo integration before the breakthrough to the tribulation realm.

He paused. He could exploit this.

Currently, he could only recreate four laws per day.

But if he did so now, his energy might be restored after integration, allowing him to do it again.

Hell, it might even increase his capacity, allowing him to recreate even more laws. And he could also use this method again after the integration, allowing the same thing to happen after his final breakthrough to the tribulation realm.

“Hehehehe,” he began laughing like a maniac.

“Ahem, I need to act fast,” he thought.

He wondered what to start with first. After thinking for a moment, he decided not to create a new law. Although his law of absolute source was powerful, it was quite expensive to use, and he wouldn’t use it in combat – at least, he didn’t want to.

Since this was the case, it was better to upgrade his existing combat laws instead so he would have the power he needed first.

Besides, he wasn’t losing much by not unlocking new laws.

Even if he was missing the chance of doubling experience every day, it wasn’t all that impressive. If his law of absolute source reached peak manifestation, he would be able to create laws at peak manifestation from the start, so the doubling wasn’t really that important for other laws.

The only doubling that truly mattered was his absolute source.

“Alright, let’s begin.”

…

Xiang Yu selected void, gravity, space, and time to upgrade.

These four were his most reliable laws for combat. He activated his absolute source ability, deciding to recreate them all at the same time.

Although it was wasteful to do it like this – since recreating them one at a time meant the later ones would gain even more experience as the law grew stronger while he used it – he didn’t have time to waste. The process was almost reaching a critical point, and he couldn’t afford any delays.

Besides, doing it this way would save some excess energy. He didn’t want to enter the integration process with low energy reserves since you never knew what might happen.

A few seconds later, the four laws were complete.

[Absolute Source Law: Resonance (2,500,000/100,000,000)]

He smiled – even the absolute source law had advanced quite a bit.

As he was celebrating, he suddenly felt the transformation happening in his body reach a critical point.

He felt his soul begin to transform as well, and his spiritual sea was shaking, causing him to experience an unimaginable headache. But he merely smiled at this. The headache was nothing.

To him, it meant that his mind was being stimulated.

To him, it meant he was gaining experience.

He smiled like a madman.

At the same time, his flesh began letting out smoke as if it was being burnt.

It was his bloodlines acting up. His body then began being torn apart. This time, the reaction was even more violent than when the bloodlines were advancing to divine grade.

“Is this supposed to happen?” he wondered, looking at his regenerating body in shock.

At the same time, his soul also began to be torn apart.

“This is…” his eyes widened. He could feel it – it was his bloodlines invading his soul.

But instead of being scared of the battle beginning to happen in his soul and tearing it apart, he smiled even wider.

This meant even more experience.

“Hahaha, today is my lucky day!” he laughed.

This process continued for another hour.

Xiang Yu lay on the ground as his body was being destroyed and reconstructed constantly.

He wondered when this was going to end.

Well, no matter – the longer it lasted, the more experience he got.

Another hour passed.

The situation was still the same. Only after another two hours did the situation in his body begin to calm down. Xiang Yu felt the bloodline reaction in his body slowly begin to settle, then came the reaction in his soul.

After everything became calm, Xiang Yu breathed deeply. He felt his soul resonating with his every move. He could feel that he was now closer to his soul. It was a strange feeling – after all, wasn’t he already closest to his soul since it was him? But now, it felt like this closeness had deepened.

No, rather than being close to his soul, it was more accurate to say that he had become closer to his body. Now his body didn’t feel like just something he possessed – it felt like an extension of himself.

But that wasn’t the only thing. He glanced to the side where a system screen floated.
