Chapter 11: Su Yuan's Strength
In the dim meditation room.
A figure sat cross-legged.
The figure was completely naked, with clearly defined muscle lines, and dozens of silver needles pierced the surface of his skin.
"Exhale!"
"Inhale!"
With each breath the figure took, it stirred massive air currents, faintly resembling a giant beast in slumber.
Furthermore, if anyone else were present, they would clearly feel that the temperature inside the meditation room was one or two degrees higher than outside, with the temperature difference increasing the closer they got to the figure.
The cause of this phenomenon wasn't air conditioning, but rather the figure's boiling blood and qi, which continuously radiated heat outward like a blazing furnace.
An unknown amount of time passed.
The cross-legged figure silently opened his eyes.Dozens of silver needles that had been piercing his skin surface all shot backward and flew out.
"Eighth cultivation session!"
Su Yuan took a deep breath, and his turbulent blood and qi quickly calmed down.
"Another set of silver needles ruined."
Su Yuan glanced at the dozens of silver needles that had flown out.
The needle tips of these silver needles had already shown damage, clearly making them unusable again.
"The silver needle cultivation method..."
A peculiar expression appeared on Su Yuan's face.
The silver needle cultivation method was the most suitable cultivation approach the gray mirror had provided based on his current conditions.
Using this cultivation method, he only needed to complete fifteen cultivation sessions to successfully transform into a Level 1 lifeform.
The silver needle cultivation method's remarkable effects didn't come without cost—it essentially overdrew Su Yuan's life force.
By stimulating specific acupoints on his body with silver needles, it burned his life force, temporarily greatly enhancing his physique, thereby allowing high-intensity absorption of external energy essence to achieve life evolution.
As for the lost life force? The gray mirror had long provided a solution—it would all be replenished after becoming a Level 1 lifeform.
"What level of strength do I currently correspond to in Xia Country's cultivation world?"
Su Yuan stood up, put on his clothes, sat on the sofa, and took out the gray mirror to inquire.
The gray mirror surface swirled hazily, revealing lines of text.
[Transforming Force Great Completion]
Looking at the answer provided by the gray mirror, Su Yuan felt quite emotional within.
Visible Force, Hidden Force, Transforming Force, Embracing Elixir...
Transforming Force experts were also called Grandmasters, who trained their internal organs internally and their muscles and bones externally, possessing extremely powerful physiques. With mere gestures, they could defeat hundreds or thousands of people—in ancient times, they would have been great generals who could rout ten thousand troops.
In modern society, Transforming Force Grandmasters were also terrifyingly powerful. Although they still couldn't withstand firearms and hot weapons, no Transforming Force Grandmaster would be foolish enough to confront hot weapons head-on.
With a Transforming Force Grandmaster's perception of their surroundings, ordinary hot weapons couldn't lock onto them at all—the moment a gun barrel aimed at a Transforming Force Grandmaster, they would sense it.
Transforming Force Grandmasters possessed powerful mental strength, able to clearly sense malice within several dozen meters around them, and even had instinctive precognition abilities.
Unless facing large-scale firepower coverage or heavy hot weapons like missiles, even if Transforming Force Grandmasters sensed danger in advance, they couldn't avoid it.
Otherwise, within cities, it would be extremely difficult for a Transforming Force Grandmaster to die.
"Mental strength?"
Su Yuan carefully sensed and discovered that within thirty meters centered on him, no movement could escape his perception.
This sensing wasn't visual, but rather an instinct.
For example, if a book was placed behind him, even as a Transforming Force Grandmaster, Su Yuan wouldn't know what was written in it.
But if this book moved even slightly, Su Yuan would immediately perceive it.
"If Transforming Force Great Completion is already this powerful, how magnificent must an Embracing Elixir Grandmaster be?"
Su Yuan felt anticipation in his heart. He had long learned about the various abilities of Embracing Elixir Grandmasters from the gray mirror.
But knowing and personally experiencing were completely different.
Just like a week ago, Su Yuan knew that Transforming Force Grandmasters possessed mental strength.
But only until now did he understand what mental strength actually was.
As for Embracing Elixir Grandmasters... that is, Level 1 lifeforms.
In ancient times, they would have been regarded as immortals.
Even in modern society, as long as they didn't oppose state machinery, they would be worshipped like deities.
......
"What rank does my current strength place me at in Magic City?"
Su Yuan pondered for a moment, then continued asking.
The gray mirror surface appeared hazy, quickly providing an answer.
[48th place]
"Not bad."
Su Yuan nodded.
With Magic City's population of tens of millions, gathering strong individuals from around the world, being able to rank 48th could already be considered extremely powerful.
"What rank would my current hacking skills place me at in Magic City?"
Su Yuan asked.
Apart from cultivation, sleep, and rest this week, he had devoted all his time to studying computer information technology.
As his cultivation sessions increased, Su Yuan continuously transformed toward becoming a true Level 1 lifeform, with his body improving in all aspects—intelligence, thinking, and reaction speed were all skyrocketing.
This resulted in Su Yuan's learning ability being almost worlds apart compared to before.
Life transformation and evolution weren't just reflected in strength, but in every aspect. High-level lifeforms and low-level lifeforms couldn't even be considered the same species.
His terrifying learning ability, combined with the gray mirror's constant guidance for resolving doubts.
Made Su Yuan's hacking skills increase by who knows how many times compared to before.
[186th place]
The gray mirror provided its answer.
Su Yuan looked at the gray mirror and nodded slightly.
Anyway, with his current hacking skills, he could easily infiltrate Magic City's education network without being detected.
......
"It's about time to proceed with the next step of the plan."
Su Yuan touched his chin, thinking to himself.
This was something Su Yuan had already planned out through the gray mirror.
As Su Yuan continued cultivating, his demand for external resources would skyrocket.
And many resources couldn't be bought with money alone.
So after cultivating to a certain level, Su Yuan needed to utilize external forces.
The plan Su Yuan was about to implement involved taking control of an organization.
Today was the perfect timing to take control of that organization.
Aside from Su Yuan's breakthrough in strength, reaching Transforming Force Great Completion and gaining true self-preservation ability.
Today was also a critical juncture that organization was experiencing.
If he missed today, Su Yuan's attempt to smoothly take control of that organization would become much more difficult.
"Let's go."
Su Yuan looked at the gray mirror, rechecked the plan's steps and details, confirmed there were no omissions or hidden risks, then walked out of Villa 66 and exited Jinshan Villa District.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Lin."
The security guard at the villa district entrance greeted him warmly.
Su Yuan responded with a smile.
After leaving the villa district and walking through a deserted street.
Su Yuan's body rapidly changed.
His facial bones shifted slightly, causing Su Yuan's overall facial features to undergo a dramatic transformation.
His leg muscles and bones stretched, his entire skeleton crackling as Su Yuan's height increased by five or six centimeters, reaching 188 centimeters.
By the time he walked out of this deserted street, Su Yuan had become a completely different person compared to before, with both height and appearance entirely distinct.
Transforming Force Grandmasters trained their external muscles and bones, achieving unbelievable control over their bodies.
Slightly manipulating some bone structures for appearance and height disguise was merely a matter of thought.
