Three days later, at the bottom of the ocean at a depth of forty-six thousand feet.
Lu An was still sitting cross-legged in the eye of the formation. He had been here for forty-two days. Just now, Prince Qi had come to the periphery to observe him, and only left after confirming that he was fine.
In reality, Lu An wasn't fine, but it wasn't a bad thing, it was a good thing. He had been at the peak of the seventh rank for three months. According to his original plan, he believed that he would need at least half a year to break through, but from the current situation, that was absolutely impossible.
Today was the day to break through!
Lu An's eyes were tightly shut, and his brows were tightly furrowed. He did his best to relax his body, but it was still extremely tense. Right now, his body was filled to the brim with energy, and he couldn't absorb any more. Moreover, this energy wasn't ice, fire, life, death, or space energy. It was all pure energy of nothingness, which was the 'spirit' that Lu An could comprehend at his current level!
This time, Lu An wanted to completely use 'spirit' to break through. This was the most important decision he had made in his cultivation!
Once he used 'spirit' to break through, it meant that 'spirit' would completely merge into his bloodline and become an important part of his strength. In the future, even if Lu An wanted to remove 'spirit' from his bloodline, it would be impossible. It might take decades, or even centuries. As for Lu An, he only had a few years left before the end of the ten-year agreement.
If this decision was wrong, it would delay his most precious cultivation time, which also meant that he would lose the ten-year agreement.
If he lost, he would die.
This was a gamble of life and death. In truth, Lu An didn't have such great courage. If it were him, he might have made the same choice in the end, but he would have hesitated repeatedly. The reason he could make such a resolute choice was because of Fu Yu's words.
Fu Yu had always believed in him. Even if what he was doing was something that many geniuses in history had failed to do, she still believed in him. If even she believed in him, what reason did he have to not go all out and do it?
There was no way out. Only by walking down this path to death could one completely break through this path!
Lu An took a deep breath and clenched his fists!
Now, he was trying to break through to the eighth level of Heavenly Master for the first time!
In the blink of an eye, the 'spirit' in Lu An's body was completely activated. It went berserk in Lu An's blood! However, Lu An was still able to control the berserk nature of the spirit. He suppressed the spirit's movements and slowed down the suppression of the spirit bit by bit. At this very moment, the 'spirit' was completely on top of the barrier to becoming a Level Eight Heavenly Master. At the same time, it was also on top of his blood vessels.
The barrier to becoming a Level Eight Heavenly Master was extremely hard. If the berserk 'spirit' was unable to break through this barrier, then it would cause all of Lu An's blood vessels and internal organs to explode. Why was it said that the advancement from the peak of the seventh level to the eighth level of Celestial Master had nothing to do with strength and was only related to the realm of comprehension? The reason was very simple, because this barrier could not be broken through with the same attribute and realm as a seventh level Celestial Master.
In order to break through, one had to change the foundation of the strength of a seventh level Celestial Master, increase the purity of the strength, or add a specific change to the strength. At the same time, one had to find a way to break through this barrier. This barrier was like a special mechanism, a special formation. It could only be cleverly opened through comprehension and realm, and only then could one reach a higher level.
Right now, the 'spirit' was the key that Lu An had chosen to become a Level Eight Heavenly Master. However, as for whether it was right or wrong, whether it could break through this barrier was still unknown.
Bang!
Lu An completely released the 'spirit' and no longer suppressed the 'spirit's' berserk nature. Immediately, the 'spirit' firmly pressed against the barrier, filling all of Lu An's blood vessels and internal organs! Although Lu An's blood vessels and internal organs were strong, the power of the 'spirit' was too great. He could only hold on for the time it took for an incense stick to burn. In other words, if the 'spirit' was unable to break through the barrier to becoming a Level Eight Heavenly Master within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, then his body would explode and he would die.
Of course, Lu An could choose to give up halfway, but that would also mean failure. Every time he failed, the barrier would absorb a lot of energy. At the same time, it would also cause Lu An's body to be injured. Over and over again, it would become harder and harder to break through.
Lu An was completely focused on breaking through. Right now, he had never thought about failure. If he really couldn't break through in the end, he would immediately withdraw. However, right now, he could only focus on how to break through successfully.
After the 'spirit' touched the barrier for a few breaths, Lu An made his first attempt.
He discovered that there were many small cracks in the barrier. He let the 'spirit' enter it to roughly determine how thick and tough the barrier was. After a few breaths, the 'spirit' was forced to stop advancing through the cracks. Lu An's brows furrowed even more.
His' spirit 'couldn't go any deeper. He didn't know how much further he had to go. Even now, the thickness of the barrier was beyond his imagination. It was also more than any of his breakthroughs in the past!
However, Lu An wasn't frightened. Instead, he immediately let the 'spirit' that had already entered the barrier to sense the power in the barrier. In Lu An's opinion, every power in the world had its own reason. Even the barrier that blocked the advancement of the realm was the same. He had to analyze the attribute of this power and then find the most direct way to break through.
The 'spirit' quickly permeated the entire barrier. The huge barrier created by the power of the four Fate Wheels made the process of Lu An's analysis extremely long. To be honest, Lu An couldn't really analyze what was inside. He could only analyze based on his feelings and find the way to break through based on his feelings.
The time it took for an incense stick to burn was really not long. Especially during such an intense process of breaking through, it seemed to be extremely short. Lu An closed his eyes. He believed that the barrier came from himself. Therefore, the source and power also came from himself. As long as the power came from himself, his' spirit 'could completely cover everything!
Time flew. In the eyes of the outside world, half an hour had passed. At this moment, Lu An's body suddenly trembled!
Because after the continuous infiltration of the 'spirit', he suddenly realized that although there were many cracks, the higher he went, the more concentrated the cracks were. In fact, in the intricate intersections, there were only four core cracks and the rest were the branches of the four core cracks!
However, the four core cracks felt completely different. The branches intersected with each other, which gave Lu An a very complicated feeling! However, if he were to distinguish according to the four core cracks, it couldn't be clearer!
Ice, Fire, Life, Death!
The power of the four blood vessels formed the four different forces of the four cracks. In other words, the barrier was formed by the combination of the four forces. If he wanted to break it, he had to use the same force as the one in the cracks to fight back!
It was very easy for a multi-attribute Heavenly Master to control two attributes at the same time. In other words, they could do two things at the same time. However, it would be very troublesome to control more than that. Moreover, even if they controlled two attributes, their power would be reduced. After all, they couldn't do two things at the same time. This was basically everyone's disadvantage!
However, Lu An was different. There was a world of difference between using different Fate Wheels and using different attributes. This was because the power came from the blood vessels. It was not like using the Heaven's Origin Force to create changes outside the body. Lu An had to use the four forces at the same time and use all his strength to break through the barrier. If Lu An really used all four Fate Wheels to break through the barrier, Lu An was not confident at all.
However, Lu An had the 'spirit'.
Lu An immediately changed the 'spirit' into different attributes in different cracks and then used all his strength to break through! The biggest advantage of having the 'spirit' was that the four attributes could be used at the same time without any conflict! This was because they had been assimilated by the 'spirit'. In other words, they were of the same origin and could not be distinguished from each other.
However … even though Lu An had done so, the cracks were not affected at all. Instead, they were absorbing Lu An's power and making the barrier harder. It was as if the cracks were going to be filled up.
Lu An immediately stopped. His body was very tense. He had been holding on for almost half an hour. If he still couldn't find a way to vent it, he could only give up!
Could it be that … he couldn't use the same power, but had to use a power that restrained it?!
Lu An frowned. He couldn't think of any other possibilities in a short period of time. Before half an hour passed, he had to make a second attempt!
Immediately, all the attributes in the four cracks and branches changed. Ice and fire were exchanged, and life and death were exchanged. The moment this exchange occurred, Lu An's body shook violently. In an instant, the power of nothingness erupted from Lu An's body and swept out in all directions!
And this violent power actually instantly rushed out of the range of the array eye, directly rushing into the violent deep sea whirlpool around it!
