Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 28: Believe
The energy level of the sublime comes from the ancient Terra mythology, the heavenly father created the boundless sky in seven steps, and hung the sun, moon and stars on the ladder.
Every time an energy level is climbed, the sublimator will have a qualitative change. Every step up is a different scenery.
The fifth energy level, compared to ordinary people, has undergone qualitative changes and sublimation five times. No matter how you look at it, it can be called a superman in the true sense, and it is a legend walking on the earth.
Most of the inheritances on the continent of Terra can make the sublimator qualitatively change two or three times, which is considered rare, let alone reach the fifth energy level?
That is the real untold secret, a priceless treasure.
As for the sublimator of that energy level, perhaps as the name suggests, just his own existence itself can be equivalent to an unshakable strong city, a fortress that will never fall.
When Hilliard uttered the word 'immovable fortified city', Ian even felt that he really saw a majestic and immovable mountain standing in the storm, no matter what kind of natural disaster storm, what kind of Stormy waves, even earthquakes and tsunamis, can't shake it in the slightest.
That is the power of the most powerful guardian system Makoto.
"Of course, that's too early for you now. Even if you want to practice, you should start from the elementary 'sand armor apprentice', and then follow the path of 'rock knight' and 'stone lord' The route is gradually advanced."
"However, even the first-class 'Sand Armor Apprentice' can manipulate sand into armor, split solid rocks with bare hands, ignore most of the attacks of swords, guns and axes, and even Hold your breath to hide, slow down life fluctuations, and do not eat or drink for more than ten days without affecting your physical strength."
Speaking slowly, Hilliard put his hand on Ian's chest: "This is the sublimator—the power you will have in the future."
The boy didn't run away.
He keenly sensed a heat flow rising from the old knight's palm that he couldn't ignore.
Ian subconsciously opened the 'Vision of Prediction'.
In the instantly hazy world, he saw a pale golden phantom sphere condensed in the palm of Hilliard, who was surrounded by a halo of golden mist.
It flows, spins, and glows with heat like a flame, even the sun.
Then, pour into your own body.
Ian stared intently. The moment the golden ball entered his body, he felt that his chest and heart suddenly became hot and hot. A hot stream that seemed to burst out of the furnace poured in from the contact between the two of them. Immediately following the heartbeat swept across the body.
He felt that the muscles, blood vessels, bones, and even the internal organs in his body became extremely clear, and he could clearly know where the blood flowed every time the heart beat.
But it's only for a moment.
"There is no problem with the internal organs, all functions are normal, you and your cells are very hungry, it seems that you need to prepare more food to nourish your body in the future."
Withdrawing his hand, Hilliard groaned, he raised Ian's hand, and signaled the boy to open his hands——Ian naturally followed suit.
The old knight carefully observed his student's hands, and motioned Ian to take off his coat. He carefully looked at the bruises on the boy's body, pressed and pinched the tendons and bones in some key areas, and asked Ian whether it was painful or not. Itching, if you have any special feeling, be sure to tell him.
Ian naturally told the truth.
"Excellent."
After this detailed inspection, Hilliard was very satisfied. He patted Ian on the shoulder and motioned for him to put on his clothes: "There are no hidden injuries or distortions. Your body is in good health. Uncle's torment is not You have not been irreparably harmed."
"It's just that you don't have any special blood and mutations. It's strange. According to your uncle's situation, your bones should be stronger. After all, he is a failed steel bone distortion, and you have successfully awakened. Psychic power, tempered bones at least have some foundation."
During inspection, he noticed that Ian's clothes had many holes, and the old knight shook his head slightly.
——It's not easy to stay in this kind of family without permanent dark wounds.
At this moment, Ian suddenly said: "Teacher, what does it mean that there are no distortions and dark wounds?"
"It can save a lot of effort and save time."
After hearing Ian's doubtful inquiry, Hilliard, who came back to his senses, explained: "Not everyone can embark on the road of ascension. , and the source of life is mostly damaged."
"Seriously, it's like your uncle, the distortion is obvious, even if the normal sublimated organs are cultivated by him, there may be malignant mutations-and ordinary people may not have tumors or abnormal limbs on the outside, but their internal organs There will be some variations in more or less organs."
"The source of life is damaged, even if you embark on the road of ascension, it is difficult to go far. Therefore, even if the vast majority of ordinary people are inherited, they will not be able to break through the second and third energy levels in their entire lives."
Stretched out his hand and patted Ian on the shoulder. Hilliard smiled and said, "Of course, you don't have to worry. Being able to awaken psionic energy proves that your source of life is complete enough to cultivate to the third energy level." No problem."
"I also checked just now, your internal organs are all healthy, there is no distortion, and there is no problem in practicing my inheritance."
"Is this so?"
Feeling the teacher's gentle pat on the shoulder, Ian has thoughts in his heart.
Don't talk about the new term "disaster from the sky" that appeared again.
According to the earth, the natural deformity is undoubtedly a genetic disease, but in the world of Terra, it is the damage of the source of life.
Gene and life source should be similar concepts, and if a person with severely damaged genes forcibly sublimates their own life essence, they will only get distorted results.
"It's a bit like genetic adjustment." Ian thought in his heart: "If the gene is not repaired, even if the person born with deformities receives genetic adjustment, he will not be able to grow the correct genetic organ."
His psychic awakening is essentially a fusion of the memories of the two worlds, which is different from most psychics in the world of Terra. whole.
In particular, he has an uncle whose life source is severely damaged, which is a high-risk genetic disease population on earth.
So he looked up and tentatively asked Hilliard: "The source of life is damaged, can it be healed and made up for?"
"Yes." Hilliard was not surprised that Ian asked this question. Most apprentices would ask this question after knowing this. He replied neatly: "But it requires very expensive repair surgery, or An extremely rare tonic potion. It is said that there are some special practice methods that can also gradually restore the damaged source of life, but those are not methods that ordinary people can use, and it consumes countless resources and time."
"Since you can awaken psionic energy, it proves that your aptitude is definitely above average. Psyker and sublimator, you can take both paths."
"I see."
Ian nodded bluntly. He raised his hand and watched his fist, clenched and then loosened.
Looking at his young, white, thin wrist and fist, the boy raised his head and looked at Hilliard: "Teacher."
"When can I start the cultivation of the Ascendant?"
Hilliard looked at the expressions of his students.
He thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Now."
"Sublimation is not a profession, not a feature, let alone a high status, sublimation is a way of life."
"If you want to start the practice of sublimation, you can do it anytime."
The old knight's eyes became solemn at this moment, he stared into Ian's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Ian, I know that you desire power, and you do need power—but you are only eight years old, you should understand , at your current age, starting to practice as a sublimator is really half the effort."
"It should be noted that even the imperial family can only formally embark on the road to ascension after puberty."
"Of course, there is nothing wrong with walking ahead of time, but it must be a more difficult and arduous long road."
This passage is meaningless. Hilliard is well aware of Ian's plight - he is just pretending to be the child's uncle, has his own mission, and will leave at some point in the future, and at that time, Ian needs to be alone to take care of himself and his brother.
Not to mention, there are also the prying eyes of the Sequoia natives.
The loss of three hunters and one shaman this time, although the other party will not directly sneak into Harrison Harbor to assassinate, but they will definitely keep an eye on Ian and try to take revenge.
Ian wants power and needs it.
However, apart from this reason, Hilliard actually harbored a glimmer of expectation in his heart.
Young children cannot practice ascensionists. Apart from constantly adapting to a new body shape and strength, young children's capricious and impatient mind is the most important thing.
No one thinks that an eight or nine-year-old can insist on daily boring exercise and meditation just to get used to the pain and control his thoughts.
But if it's Ian.
If this is the child who kills three enemies in just one night and can sleep peacefully
Hilliard thinks he can.
And even more.
- Your Majesty.
Looking at Ian who seemed to be thinking, the old knight couldn't help muttering in his heart: "Maybe it's just what you said."
"We can always trust."
