I Have an All-Knowing Mirror

Chapter 160: To Open Heaven and Split Earth

Rumble—

Under the dark, cold Starry Void, Su Yuan raised his right hand. The Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies swept out, radiating power fluctuations capable of destroying stars as it instantly vanished into the distance.

"I have mostly adapted to it."

Su Yuan nodded slightly. Stepping from the Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform to the Late-stage Starry Sky Life caused his strength to skyrocket, requiring time to adapt.

Especially for someone like Su Yuan, whose casual strike could pierce through a life-bearing planet. If he had not adapted before returning to Bluestar, a single moment of carelessness could inflict a devastating blow to the planet.

"My current strength is much greater than that of an ordinary Level 39 peak Late-stage Starry Sky Life."

Su Yuan examined himself.

This formidable power stemmed from two aspects.

First, the Six Dimensions of Life.

Second, the Cosmic Force he had Fully Comprehended.Su Yuan's Cultivator method accounted for all Six Dimensions of Life in a balanced manner. As his Life Form continuously evolved, the gap between him and other Cultivators and evolvers would only grow wider.

Back when he was a Level 1 Life Form, Su Yuan could not yet fight above his level. But now? Having just reached Level 30, relying solely on his Six Dimensions of Life, he was already comparable to a Level 39 Life Form.

As for the Fully Comprehended Cosmic Force? The Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies—comprising seven types of Cosmic Force—were the most suitable, highest Potential, and most perfect structural method provided by the gray mirror for Su Yuan.

Combining both aspects allowed Su Yuan's direct combat strength to vastly exceed that of an ordinary Level 39 Life Form.

'Unfortunately, compared to a Stellar Life Form, I am still vastly inferior...'

Su Yuan sighed inwardly. The might of a Stellar Life Form had reached a Beyond Comprehension level.

It was precisely at the Stellar Life Form stage that human powerhouses could narrow the gap with the uniquely blessed starry sky behemoths dwelling in the Depths of the Universe.

The reason Stellar Life Forms were so terrifyingly powerful lay within their Inner World.

No matter how strong a Starry Sky Lifeform was, they could only unleash the power of their Physical Body and borrow various Cosmic Forces.

But a Stellar Life Form? They used their Inner World as a source, capable of erupting with the mighty power of an entire world with every casual movement.

This was a qualitative leap in life.

'For a Late-stage Starry Sky Life, a Chaotic Point will condense in the deepest part of their Physical Body... This is the key to breaking through to a Stellar Life Form,'

Su Yuan closed his eyes, faintly sensing a certain corner brimming with chaos deep within his Physical Body.

This corner could be considered infinitesimally small, yet also boundlessly massive. Su Yuan could not even confirm if it was truly located inside his physical form.

'The Chaotic Point?'

Su Yuan's expression turned slightly solemn.

For a Late-stage Starry Sky Life, the head and heart were no longer fatal weak points; the Chaotic Point was.

A Late-stage Starry Sky Life would not die even if their head or heart were pierced through.

'A Level 39 peak Late-stage Starry Sky Life must accomplish the feat To Open Heaven and Split Earth at the Chaotic Point deep within their Physical Body. Only by giving birth to a stable Inner World can they become a Stellar Life Form,'

Su Yuan pondered inwardly.

With the flawless stability of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies he had mastered, he could, if he wished, initiate the process To Open Heaven and Split Earth at the Chaotic Point right now and attempt to become a Stellar Life Form.

However, the result would be failure.

It was not that the seven types of Cosmic Force within the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies were insufficiently perfect, but rather that Su Yuan's Physical Body could not yet withstand the Inner World opened up by those energies.

The formation of an Inner World depended on two factors.

First, whether the constructed Cosmic Force was perfectly stable.

This factor posed no difficulty for Su Yuan whatsoever.

The Observer from the Broken Void World had concluded that with the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies Su Yuan had Fully Comprehended, stepping into the realm of a Stellar Life Form would not be difficult.

The second factor... was whether the Physical Body could endure the Inner World.

The Inner World was a complete, truly existing world. To open a world within oneself, the body first had to be capable of bearing its weight.

Su Yuan's current Physical Body was no weaker than a Level 39 peak Late-stage Starry Sky Life, but by the same token, the Inner World Su Yuan would open was not the same as one created by an ordinary Level 39 Life Form.

With the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies as its foundation, the initial scope of the opened Inner World would reach an area spanning fifty thousand kilometers.

For an ordinary newly advanced Level 40 Stellar Life Form, their Inner World would only span about five thousand kilometers.

A tenfold difference in diameter, but the energy and spatial volume involved were thousands, if not tens of thousands of times greater!

One must understand, any existence capable of becoming a Stellar Life Form could rightfully be called a favored child of heaven.

To be thousands or tens of thousands of times stronger than even them?

Therefore, if Su Yuan wanted to open his Inner World, he needed to wait until he became a Level 39 Life Form.

At that time, Su Yuan's Physical Body would reach its absolute peak, and with the aid of certain Cosmic Wonders that enhanced the Physical Body, such as the Starry Sky Divine Crystal and others...

Only then would there be hope of enduring the Inner World Su Yuan sought to open.

'An initial Inner World spanning fifty thousand kilometers?'

Su Yuan shook his head inwardly. An initial Inner World of this caliber was naturally not his ultimate pursuit.

The size of a Stellar Life Form's initial Inner World was their absolute foundation. The vaster the initial Inner World, the more profoundly it would positively impact their subsequent cultivation path, power, and everything else.

Through the gray mirror, Su Yuan had learned many cultivation secrets, among which the Inner World was the absolute top priority for any Cultivator or evolver.

'If I want to increase the scope and size of my Inner World, I must comprehend how a world is opened, constructed, and so on...'

Su Yuan mused inwardly, 'In this regard, within the Virtual Network world, there are exactly seven Evolution Worlds that meet the requirements.'

These seven Evolution Worlds were precisely the ones provided by the gray mirror as the most suitable for Su Yuan to break through to a Stellar Life Form.

'I am only Level 30 right now. I should take it one step at a time.'

Su Yuan reined in his thoughts and returned to the Spaceship.

Opening his Inner World was something he only needed to do once he reached at least a Level 39 Life Form.

There was no rush right now.

"Proceed to these coordinates."

Su Yuan spoke from within the control room of the Spaceship.

"Right away, Master."

The voice of AI Xiaolan rang out immediately.

At the same time, she took control of the vessel, steering the Spaceship toward the positional coordinates Su Yuan had specified.

Having finally made a trip out here, Su Yuan naturally had no intention of returning directly to Bluestar.

Instead, he planned to completely sweep through the nearby star regions, plundering all the resources and treasures he could obtain without hidden risks, dangers, or difficulty.

Su Yuan had done the exact same thing when he previously broke through to a Starry Sky Lifeform.

However, back then, Su Yuan was only a Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform with limited strength, making it somewhat difficult to pillage many of the Cosmic Wonders.

But now?

As a Late-stage Starry Sky Life, he possessed casual planet-destroying power.

Looking across the vast Universe, he could no longer be considered weak. Naturally, the number of resources he could claim without risk or difficulty had increased significantly.

Half a day later.

The Spaceship slowly came to a halt.

"Are we here?"

Su Yuan looked out at the scenery in the Starry Void outside through the control room inside the ship.

Not far from where the ship had anchored, a gray planet floated silently in the void.

The gray planet was roughly twice the size of Bluestar, yet no life signatures or metallic mineral signatures could be detected from it. It was a dead planet.

In the Cosmic Starry Sky, there were countless planets, among which resource planets and life-bearing planets held the highest value.

As for dead planets?

They could not sustain life, nor could they birth valuable metallic minerals. They possessed essentially no value whatsoever. Even if an Imperial Citizen were to see one, they would not pause to linger.

"This planet..."

Su Yuan observed it carefully for a moment. According to the gray mirror's answers, a Lunar Star Fruit was being nurtured deep within the core of this planet.

The Lunar Star Fruit was condensed from infinite lunar energy and fell under the category of a Cosmic Wonder. For a Late-stage Starry Sky Life comprehending yin-attribute Cosmic Forces, it possessed an exceptionally tremendous restorative and enhancing effect.

Of course, since the Lunar Star Fruit originated from lunar power, its aura was incredibly concealed. Coupled with the fact that it was located at the planet's core, the scanning equipment of ordinary Spaceships would be utterly incapable of detecting it.

"According to the prices on the Virtual Network's trading hub, a single Lunar Star Fruit is worth around ten billion Azure Surge Coins..." A smile surfaced on Su Yuan's face.

He promptly opened the ship's airlock doors and stepped directly outside.

"Master."

At that moment, AI Xiaolan's voice sounded. "Should we dispatch drones for a preliminary survey?"

Xiaolan's suggestion was completely standard protocol.

According to the Human Cosmic Empire's protocols for planetary exploration, citizens were advised to prioritize sending drones or robots for advance scouting when exploring unknown planets, as this was the only way to circumvent potential risks.

"No need."

Su Yuan shook his head slightly.

Would he not know whether the planet below harbored any danger?

Su Yuan had long since learned every hidden secret of this gray planet from the gray mirror.

Whoosh!

Su Yuan descended directly onto the gray planet.

A terrifying chill enveloped the area, cold enough to render ordinary Level 8 or Level 9 Life Forms instantly unconscious. But to Su Yuan, it naturally felt like nothing more than a gentle breeze; he felt absolutely nothing.

With a Physical Body comparable to a Level 39 Life Form, if Su Yuan simply wished it, he could actively radiate his vital blood energy to alter the environment of this planet in a short period, raising its temperature by dozens of degrees.

Following the planet's surface, Su Yuan arrived before a massive crater.

This crater led straight down to the planet's core.

Swish!

Su Yuan immediately plummeted through the crater, heading toward the core.

Before long.

Su Yuan arrived in an incomparably vast, empty cavern.

The temperature here was far lower than on the surface. Even an Initial-Realm Starry Sky Lifeform would not be able to hold out here for long and would need to retreat immediately.

"The Lunar Star Fruit..."

Su Yuan looked toward a spot not far away, where a small silver sapling was growing silently.

And nestled among the branches of the small silver tree hung a silvery-white fruit.

Endless freezing yin auras were radiating precisely from within this silvery-white fruit.

"Still not coming out?"

Su Yuan did not immediately pluck the Lunar Star Fruit. Instead, he shot a glance toward an area not far from the silver tree.

If taking the Lunar Star Fruit came with zero risks, Su Yuan would have long since dispatched robots to retrieve it, just as he had done when claiming the legacy of the Multi-eyed Clan.

He would not have come personally.

Under the freezing yin conditions spanning countless years, a Yin Spirit had been born near the Lunar Star Fruit.

A so-called Yin Spirit was a type of Special Lifeform, similar to the fire spirits born within stars.

Of course, Yin Spirits were vastly inferior to fire spirits. The former was merely the rudimentary embryo of life, possessing only basic instincts. To reach the level of a fire spirit, it would need at least several billion more years of evolution.

Fire spirits, also known as Solar Spirits, possessed supreme innate talent. Born from stars, they could easily mature to the level of a Late-stage Starry Sky Life.

A very small minority of fire spirits could ultimately fuse completely with their host star, rivaling the Stellar Life Forms among human powerhouses.

Hum— Right as Su Yuan directed his gaze there, an extremely subdued fluctuation of aura abruptly transmitted from a certain area next to the small silver tree.

Immediately following that, the temperature in all directions plummeted drastically once again, and an invisible, freezing yin aura swept toward Su Yuan.

"Too crude."

Seeing this, Su Yuan's gaze remained calm.

The Yin Spirit's current attack method leveraged the pervasive freezing yin energy in the surrounding environment. It was enough to make a Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform's scalp tingle with dread.

But in Su Yuan's current eyes, it was excruciatingly rough. Merely utilizing the freezing yin energy was far too flimsy. The moment it encountered an attack that countered it, the only outcome would be complete collapse.

"Scatter!"

With a slight shift of Su Yuan's thoughts, the aura of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies circulated, instantly spreading in all directions.

The entire core cavern had already become Su Yuan's domain. The previously pervasive freezing yin energy vanished into thin air.

"Condense!"

Su Yuan looked forward. As the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies blanketed the area, an extremely illusory shadowy figure was forcibly condensed into physical form.

This was the true body of the Yin Spirit.

The Yin Spirit had been nurtured from endless freezing yin and inherently lacked a physical body. What Su Yuan had condensed was a form created by gathering all of the Yin Spirit's auras together.

"Perfect for taking back and researching."

Su Yuan took out a flask, stuffed the illusory shadowy figure inside, and immediately corked it shut.

And just like that, a Yin Spirit capable of threatening a Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform was thoroughly suppressed. Throughout the entire process, Su Yuan had only used two moves.

In truth, had Su Yuan not wanted to capture it alive, a single thought would have been enough to cause it to completely disperse and perish.

'If it were a Lunar Spirit, its value would be even higher than this Lunar Star Fruit,' Su Yuan thought inwardly as he stowed the flask away.

As long as it was placed in a suitable environment, a Lunar Spirit could rapidly grow into a Late-stage Starry Sky Life.

However, since it was merely a Yin Spirit, its value fell vastly short. Still, Su Yuan was not complaining.

"The Lunar Star Fruit..."

Su Yuan beckoned with his hand, and the silvery-white fruit resting on the distant small silver tree floated gracefully toward him.

"Store."

After stowing the Lunar Star Fruit away safely, Su Yuan departed immediately.

Aside from the Lunar Star Fruit and that Yin Spirit, this planet held no other valuable treasures.

"Proceed to these coordinate positions."

Aboard the Spaceship, Su Yuan issued another command.

"Understood."

AI Xiaolan's voice replied.

Over the next few days, Su Yuan essentially followed his formulated plan, traveling from one set of coordinates to the next, pillaging the Cosmic Wonders and treasures he desired.

"That should be just about enough."

Four days later, Su Yuan ceased his plundering. He was well aware that within the nearby star region, he had already scooped up all the Cosmic Wonders he could easily obtain without any hidden risks or drawing unwanted attention.

Moving forward, if he wished to continue acquiring even more precious Cosmic Wonders, he would either have to expand his search radius or take on certain risks.

And Su Yuan, naturally, was unwilling to do either.

Expand the search radius? It was too much of a waste of time. While the Spaceship traversed the Dark Universe, Su Yuan would be unable to sense any Cosmic Force or even the fluctuations of the supreme laws.

This would significantly impact Su Yuan's cultivation.

"It is time to head back."

Su Yuan promptly ordered Xiaolan to return to Bluestar.

Two days later.

At the Bluestar Star Port, an ordinary black Spaceship sailed into the docks. One hour later.

Su Yuan smoothly touched down on Bluestar.

"The current Bluestar, in my eyes..."

Su Yuan gazed down upon Bluestar. Before he left, he was still merely a Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform, but now he was already a Late-stage Starry Sky Life. Naturally, the Bluestar reflected in his eyes looked entirely different from before.
