Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds - Chapter 119

Yin Ling painstakingly climbed up step by step.
She naturally knew that the first twenty steps posed no difficulty for Third Rank and Fourth Rank Evolvers.
They could basically withstand it.
After all, Lin Yuan was a Gold Pattern Evolver.
If he had begun to comprehend the rules, how could he possibly linger on the first twenty steps for such an extended time?
“Could there be some sort of mystery?”
A thought flickered through Yin Ling’s mind.
She felt that Lin Yuan’s progress to this point
definitely wasn’t due to foolishness; every move he made was profound.
With this thought, Yin Ling also stopped moving on the fortieth step.
Boom, boom, boom.
Wave after wave of soul attacks descended.
Even though Yin Ling could completely withstand soul attacks of this level,
she ultimately found it was a total waste of time.
“What kind of damned mystery is this.”
Yin Ling’s face soured, feeling her actions were foolish.
This lengthy halt, while not weakening her strength, was definitely of no benefit whatsoever.
With this realization, Yin Ling once again began her climb toward the summit.
“Soul defense has increased by twenty percent, the stability of the black and white Taiji ‘star system’ within the Niwan Palace has fortified by one and a half percent…”
At the seventh step, Lin Yuan felt quite pleased.
These soul attacks were, for him, far more efficient than practicing in solitude.
“Whether or not I can join the Red Kun Lineage, it’s best to take advantage of the situation first.”
Seeing that the soul attacks at the seventh step posed no threat to him, Lin Yuan stepped onto the eighth step.
His stay in the Fifth Star Cave wouldn’t affect his ultimate passage through the Seven Star Cave challenge.
So long as the time spent in each Star Cave didn’t exceed a month.
…
In the Seven Star Cave World, within a layer of the Mysterious Space.
Lin Yuan’s actions also caught the attention of twelve silhouettes.
“What exactly is Lin Yuan doing?”
“Why isn’t he hurrying to the Seventh Star Cave to pass the final test instead of wasting time in the Fifth Star Cave?”
“Could it be that his soul is his weak point and he is struggling with those soul attacks, which is why he is dawdling?”
The nine silhouettes below whispered among themselves and speculated.
The trial of the Seven Star Cave, set by the majestic Chikun Star Lord, was something not even the twelve disciples could interrupt; they could only select disciples based on the performance in each test.
If Lin Yuan’s performance wasn’t intentional, then it meant he was not adept at resisting soul attacks.
And the intensity of the soul attacks in the Fifth Star Cave was tailored according to the foundational strength tier of each challenger.
For instance, if you were a Third Rank Evolver, you would face soul attacks of Third Rank intensity, at most reaching the peak of Third Rank.
Lin Yuan, being a Fourth Rank, Section Ten Evolver, was subject to soul attacks of at least Fourth Rank, so if he wasn’t skilled in soul defense, it wouldn’t be surprising for him to find such attacks strenuous.
“Not skilled in soul defense?”
The nine silhouettes looked at each other incredulously.
…
“The issue is not major.”
The three silhouettes above were unconcerned.
Soul defense could be improved later; if Lin Yuan was deficient in that area, they could simply bestow a few soul defense treasures upon him later.
“At this pace, can he truly get through the Fifth Star Cave within a month…” the silhouette on the left spoke, a hint of worry in his voice.
He was called ‘Gu Ze’, the third disciple of the Chikun Star Lord, and also a being beyond Sixth Rank.
Among the three, Gu Ze was most optimistic about Lin Yuan.
“Take your time.”
Gu Ze thought to himself.
Even if Lin Yuan didn’t pass the seven Star Caves, he had the ability to bring him into the Red Kun Lineage.
However, in that case, Lin Yuan’s status would certainly not be as high as other challengers who had passed all seven Star Caves.
Moreover, without testing his specific talents in the Seventh Star Cave, Gu Ze didn’t know how to formulate a subsequent cultivation plan for Lin Yuan.
The Seven Star Cave trial set by the Chikun Star Lord wasn’t always open; the implication was that activating the trial came at a certain cost.
The effectiveness of the trials within the Seven Star Cave was also extremely precise; the seven differing trials essentially allowed for an assessment of each challenger’s potential.
…
On the mountain’s steps.
Lin Yuan took a step forward and paused with each step.
“This incessant soul attack isn’t something one comes across easily…” Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Soul attacks are a very special method of assault as they severely drain the soul power of the attacker.
And the recovery isn’t as quick as that of vital energy or stamina.
Generally speaking, a soul-type Evolver who unleashes ten or twenty full-power soul attacks would likely be drained and need to rest for some time.
Thus, Lin Yuan could hardly find a soul-type Evolver who would be able to continually assail him.
As for higher-tier soul-type Evolvers… Lin Yuan was somewhat apprehensive, fearing that if one suddenly struck with full force, wouldn’t his life be in danger?
“However, the pace of improvement is noticeably slowing down…”
Lin Yuan clearly perceived a decline in the enhancement of his soul strength.
If the enhancement brought by the initial step was ten,
it was now eight or even five.
“Mainly because the soul attacks now have an increasingly weaker effect on me.”
Lin Yuan thought.
Only when he felt threatened could he stimulate his Against-Heaven’s Understanding to perfect his current physical and soul condition so as to better cope with the impending crisis.
But now,
Lin Yuan barely felt threatened.
It was just like in the First Star Cave, walking along a hundred-mile black track.
Even without relying on other means, such as the Taiji Field and so forth, Lin Yuan could easily complete the track simply with his physical body.
Therefore, from beginning to end, the Against-Heaven’s Understanding hadn’t devised a way to enhance his physical capabilities.
