Above all spirits

Chapter 427 Power and True Nature (Part 1)

Noticing Gu Yun's unpleasant expression, Lilia immediately regained her composure, assuming that her momentary lapse in composure had displeased Gu Yun.

This is a major sponsor; we need to be on their good side.

As expected of the Star Moon Demon Clan, even a junior demon general is so generous.

Lilia paused for a moment before speaking.

"I possess the bloodline of the Azure Dragon Clan."

A flicker of unease crossed Lilia's eyes when this was mentioned.

Gu Yun frowned slightly, because Werner had told him immediately that the Azure Dragon Clan had an unsleeping Demon King. Because of his high profile, this Demon King possessed multiple powers of rules, so Werner remembered him as soon as he heard the name.

This also means that the Azure Dragon Clan is a true royal demon clan.

But why would a demon of royal lineage have to make a living in the Supreme Demon Realm? It seems this female demon has quite a story behind her.

But Gu Yun had no wine and didn't want to listen.

"Within the clan, there has been such an explanation for power."

"First, based on your experience and your vision, you need to determine the path you want to take in the future, which means choosing the rule type of the peak. As we all know, there are ten categories of rules: life and death, fate, cause and effect, reality and illusion, space, time, wisdom, power, elements, and chaos."

kindness?

Gu Yun heard the last type of rule that he had never heard from Bai Qi: the Chaos type.

Although there were doubts in my heart, I wondered if the Chaos category was the same as the Chaos Emperor's Will that was formed by the combination of Yin and Yang in Xiao Li's system.

But he did not interrupt Lilia's explanation.

"For example, the ultimate goal of the Azure Dragon Clan's inheritance is the power of rules in terms of strength and elements, which is currently mastered by the Azure Dragon Emperor. This path has been openly and widely circulated within the clan."

"According to the clan's guidance, to reach the end of this path, one must first master at least one elemental power and at the same time build a system fulcrum."

"The so-called system fulcrum is the source that guides the formation of your future field and the power to master the rules. It is a particularly important point. It can be a cloud, a butterfly, a sword, or even a blazing sun."

"In short, there is no constant framework for the so-called system fulcrum."

"After that, it needs to fit your reality, based on your understanding of the fulcrum of your system, consume your mental energy to build it, and then inject the existing power you have, that is, the core power necessary for the fulcrum of your system, and so on."

"When your understanding is insufficient and your comprehension is vague, and your strength is simply insufficient to support your ideas, then you cannot go any further. When your understanding is shallow and your comprehension is average, and you have mastered the basic strength, then you will barely be able to condense a relatively abstract form. What this form exudes is momentum, and all your offensive and defensive means will be enhanced by the influence of momentum."

"When your understanding is sufficient, your comprehension is profound, and your strength is also sufficient to support it, then you will transcend the aforementioned intangible form and condense into a tangible, concrete 'true nature'."

"kindness...."

Seemingly noticing the slight gleam in Gu Yun's eyes, as if he had discovered something new, Lilia added.

"But just take this with a grain of salt. We're all just starting out on this path. Who has the ability to understand something so abstract and distant?"

This is not meant to discourage Gu Yun; it is a fact between the realms of gods and demons.

"Why is the Demon General stage divided into the realm after the initial entry into Demon General as only requiring mastery of momentum rather than the true form? It's because with momentum, one can also condense a domain, and can also gradually fill in and deepen one's understanding to master the power of rules. The true form is too difficult, there's no need to force it."

Gu Yun disagreed.

"Since you've said that, you must be a genius capable of condensing your true form, right?"

Lilia stared blankly at Gu Yun, and she could clearly feel the excitement that Gu Yun was suppressing at this moment.

A hint of regret flickered in his eyes as he sighed inwardly at this ambitious demon, which would cause him to remain stuck at the initial stage of becoming a demon general for even longer.

Because your vision is too grand, but you lack understanding and the support to bring it to fruition, it's all empty talk, and you'll only remain stagnant.

Thinking that Gu Yun had given away ten mid-grade soul crystals in one go, Lilia kindly reminded him again.

"Yes, but basically these demons and gods are geniuses among geniuses, and their clans have a deep heritage. Simply put, they are beings who possess demon kings and god kings."

"and!"

"Their talent has been recognized by their clan, and even by the Demon King and the God King. They have received personal guidance from them. Even so, it is only possible for one out of ten to have a true genius."

Gu Yun raised an eyebrow and said.

"You don't have the concept of 'the customer is always right' here. Instead of praising me, you're criticizing me?"

Lilia slapped her forehead, speechless.

She was too attached to appearances; her self-perceived impossibility led her to subconsciously deny the existence of others.

But Gu Yun is right, he is a customer!

Although I don't know what God is, He must be some kind of noble being.

What's the big deal if you blow on it?

With teary eyes, Lilia looked at Gu Yun, asking if he could give her another chance.

Gu Yun chuckled and shook his head.

"Aren't there any who figured it out on their own?"

Lilia hesitated for a moment, as if organizing her thoughts, before blurting out.

"Yes, very few. The number known on the surface is probably comparable to the total number of Demon Kings and God Kings. I estimate that there are no more than a hundred in the entire Demon Realm and God Realm."

"They are all geniuses among geniuses."

"But I believe you will be one of them!"

With disbelieving eyes and grand pronouncements, that's Lilia.

After gaining a general understanding, Gu Yun continued to ask questions.

“You just said that the path of the Azure Dragon Emperor is known. You all know this path. Can you tell me about it?”

Lilia recalled for a moment.

"That's fine, but I don't recommend you make a complete replica."

Lilia gently advised Gu Yun to avoid having any thoughts of simply replicating the old ways.

"Your Star Moon Demon Clan should have similar warnings within your ranks, right?"

"Throughout history, many demons have attempted to completely replicate the path of the Demon King, but none of them have had a good ending. If one blindly follows in the footsteps of others and completely copies them without infusing his own understanding, then he may be stuck at a certain stage for life."

"At this point, it is very difficult to back out and make a new choice. All paths can only be used as a reference. You can imitate the framework of predecessors, but you cannot completely copy it."
