Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 15: Chapter 13 Against-Heaven’s Understanding, Integration and Mastery, Unprecedented and Unparalleled

“`

Lin Yuan returned to the Great Zen Temple without causing much of a stir.

Apart from the Abbot and a few heads of the departments, no other monks were aware.

On the third floor of the Sutra Pavilion, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.

“There are eight years left.”

Lin Yuan glanced at the illusory light screen below his line of sight,

...
knowing that his time remaining in this world wasn’t much.

“It should be enough…”

Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

He had already charted a specific direction and approach for understanding the path above the Mythical Realm,

and with an Against-Heaven’s Understanding of comprehending it, eight years was more than enough.

“The path of Martial Tao…”

Lin Yuan’s gaze was profound.

In this world, the path of Martial Tao was based on the human body, intertwined with spirit, continually transforming.

Although the progress was slow, the advantage was that there were no significant weaknesses.

At least it had much more potential compared to the evolution path of the ‘genetic warriors’ of the Cosmic Human Alliance.

The genetic warriors followed a pure physical evolution path,

and once they encountered evolutionary beings like ‘super ability sorcerers’ or ‘mind masters’…

Without prior preparation, they were basically swept away.

The genetic warrior path of evolution was probably a route designed by the upper echelons of human civilization,

specifically created for their descendants.

Completely reliant on gene potions, one could continue to advance as long as they could purchase potions of sufficient rank.

“I wonder how Martial Tao is categorized as an evolution path and what the Goddess of Wisdom thinks of it…”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

The Cosmic Human Alliance encourages its citizens to develop new evolutionary paths,

and the Goddess of Wisdom even offers huge contributions as rewards to attract more human citizens to invest in this area.

The value of an evolutionary path depends on two aspects,

one is its popularity,

and the other is its potential.

The popularity aspect is easy to understand,

If the path allows only you to cultivate, then it’s of little value to the civilization as a whole.

As for the potential… it’s the theoretical limit of that evolutionary path.

After more than a decade in this world, Lin Yuan had been using his Against-Heaven’s Understanding to deduce martial arts, opening up the path above the Grandmaster Realm towards the Mythical Realm, and even beyond the mythic levels…

He was pushing the limits of the Martial Tao evolutionary path as much as possible,

in order to obtain a higher evaluation from the Goddess of Wisdom and receive ample rewards.

Lin Yuan was well aware of his priorities, this world was just a stopover for him,

Once his twenty-year stay was up, he was to return to the Cosmic Human Alliance.

“Let’s continue comprehending,” he said.

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, closed his eyes, and fell back into a state of enlightenment.

This trip to the Martial Hall of Dali Imperial Palace had been of great help to Lin Yuan.

The myriad martial arts recorded in the Martial Hall, the various wonderful methods mastered by fighters around the world.

In the catalysis of the Against-Heaven’s Understanding, countless inspirations exploded in Lin Yuan’s mind, unwaveringly advancing towards a realm above Mythical.

…

Time passed.

Eight years flew by in the blink of an eye.

As time went on, the real identity of that mysterious monk who had broken through the Dali Imperial Palace finally came to light.

He was Hui Zhen, the Buddhist disciple from the Great Zen Temple.

Back then, Lin Yuan’s words outside the palace, “This poor monk Hui Zhen,” were heard by many.

What’s more, the Great Zen Temple had long since distributed Hui Zhen’s portrait to temples far and wide, and Lin Yuan had also shown up at various Martial Tao conventions held in the Imperial capital of Dali.

It wasn’t difficult to speculate when comparing the past with the present.

The exposure of the mysterious monk’s identity led to a direct consequence:

The Great Zen Temple became lively, and at the foot of Mount Shaoshi, throngs of warriors came every day in admiration.

The mysterious monk had only stayed in the capital of Dali for one year before vanishing without a trace. Many speculated that the monk might have returned to the Great Zen Temple.

The numerous warriors came to the Great Zen Temple in hopes of catching a glimpse of Lin Yuan.
