Chapter 109: Alpha, Essence Outflow: Atomic Level

There are only two days left until the third "Ninja World Final Trial Plan" assessment.

Meng Yi does not waste time; he intends to improve his "Mental Strength" and "Psionic Tier."

There is only one chance to ambush Xianmo Weiyang, and no amount of preparation is too much.

"My physique and energy are rated A- (early Tier 6), but my spirit and psionics are still stuck at Tier 5."

"Essence, Qi, and Spirit are a trinity; lacking one, I cannot unleash my true strength."

Arriving beneath the World Tree, Meng Yi sits cross-legged, contemplating how to rapidly boost his mental power and psionics.

Time is tight; the slow metamorphosis of the Demon Slayer dungeon won't suffice. It must be fast, accurate, and ruthless!

"The Daoist concept of Internal Alchemy: refining essence into Qi, refining Qi into Spirit, refining Spirit to return to Emptiness, refining Emptiness to merge with the Dao... perhaps I can use that as a reference."

Excess bodily Qi, blood, and vitality nourish the rapid growth of energy.

And when the body and energy are relatively balanced, energy will drive the metamorphosis of the spirit.

Currently, Meng Yi’s body = Infinite Star: Otherworldly Fortress; energy = Yin-Yang Five Elements World Tree system; spirit = Infinite Star: World Will.

Draining matter and energy to the point of exhaustion just to push the spirit to a breakthrough is not feasible.

"I originally intended to use the captured Summoned Beast Other-Dimensions to increase the volume of the 'Infinite Star,' but it seems I cannot spare them."

Meng Yi beckons, summoning the 73 sealed Summoned Beast Other-Dimensions.

73 fragments, the size of fingernails and covered in black sealing patterns, float silently before Meng Yi.

If the "Infinite Star" were to consume these small spaces, the high-density celestial body, currently tens of kilometers in diameter, could soar to over a hundred kilometers. Reflected in the outside world, this would mean a small increase in Meng Yi's Tier 6 early-stage physical strength.

"So be it. Matter and energy are the easiest to obtain; if I miss this chance, there will be another."

Meng Yi’s gaze is deep. As the "Ninja World Final Trial Plan" reaches its middle and late stages, the existence of Xianmo Weiyang severely impacts his subsequent arrangements.

Allowing the five great ninja nations to develop wildly won't yield high enough returns for the dungeon; they need to be guided positively.

Therefore, Xianmo Weiyang must die!

……

"Friend, I have truly done my best for you! You must drop enough gold coins to compensate for Meng Mou's losses!"

Having made up his mind, Meng Yi flicks his finger, shattering the outer sealing barrier of one Other-Dimension.

The black patterns gradually fade, and the crystal wall shimmering with flowing light slowly dissipates.

The fingernail-sized Other-Dimension expands, intending to restore itself to its original scale within the "Infinite Star."

The calm earth surges like ocean waves, and the threads of law falling from the firmament pierce the expanding Other-Dimension, forcibly "pausing" it!

The total amount of matter does not increase; the energy base does not increase.

The Other-Dimension becomes nothing but nourishment for the "Infinite Star: World Will."

In the material manifestation of "Essence Outflow," there is no such thing as a "bottleneck" for "Psionics."

"Psionics" is as strong as the "container" built by the body, energy, and spirit.

A- physique, A- energy, and A- spirit are enough to perfectly support A-level "Psionics." According to the Warhammer worldview, this is an "Alpha-level Psion"!

Relying solely on "Psionics," the monsters that suppress "A-level Psions" in rank, aside from the Old Ones, are only a few individuals like the Emperor of Terra, Magnus, and the top-tier Farseers of the Aeldari.

Meng Yi, whose methods are becoming increasingly unconventional, views "Psionics" as just one of his tools.

How to define Meng Yi's race is a question worth deep study.

Star Titan? World Gaia? Living Planet? Ancient Beast of Twilight? Infant Deity?

Let's just define him as a "human"—a human who has grown to look like a planet.

……

"Psionics," involving the three branches of mind, energy, and biochemistry, continuously absorbs the resources of the Other-Dimensions, driving Meng Yi's mental power to soar, with quality and quantity growing in tandem.

Twenty minutes later, not even dregs remain of the first Other-Dimension.

Meng Yi slightly senses his own state; the path of refining essence into Qi and Qi into Spirit is indeed effective.

"Then continue."

One—five!

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo" Psionic System: B- grade -> B grade!]

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo" Mental Strength: B- grade -> B grade!]

The Paradise notification sounds cannot disturb Meng Yi's state of mind; more Other-Dimensions are absorbed simultaneously.

Ten—twenty—thirty!

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo" Psionic System: B grade -> B+ grade!]

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo" Mental Strength: B grade -> B+ grade!]

Forty—sixty—seventy-three!

Taking 24.3 hours, Meng Yi consumes all the spoils, feeling that he is just one final push away from metamorphosis.

How could he give up now?

If the Other-Dimensions aren't enough, then he will extract a small amount from the "Infinite Star" and the "Yin-Yang Five Elements World Tree," recycling the low-value cannon fodder legions!

……

Day 269, 7h.

The matter and energy of the Otherworldly Fortress have decreased negligibly, but the cannon fodder legions have lost more than half.

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo" Psionic System: B+ grade -> A- grade!]

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo" Mental Strength: B+ grade -> A- grade!]

Meng Yi's thinking becomes increasingly active, his eyes turning into shimmering blue pupils due to the overflowing, surging psionic energy.

Having repeatedly borrowed the "Mechanical Motion" and "Information Flow" of the Rule Star God, the Void Dragon, to temporarily synthesize "Primitive Psionics," Meng Yi keenly perceives that a fourth "slot" has appeared for his "A-level Psionics."

He can add "Psychokinesis-type Psionics" based on the "Mechanical Motion Physical Rules."

Or he can add "Divination-type Psionics" based on the "Information Flow Physical Rules."

"To fully unlock the 'Five Great Psionic Branches' and synthesize 'Primitive Psionics,' I need the S-level rank (Alpha+) of a False Emperor, Magnus, or the like."

Meng Yi thinks quickly, choosing which "Psionic Branch" will maximize his benefits.

"Psychokinesis-type" possesses extremely high destructive power in the material world; tearing apart earth, stopping planet rotation, and extinguishing stars are all high-stage applications of "Psychokinesis-type."

But Meng Yi does not lack leverage to amplify his output; "Psychokinesis-type" would only be icing on the cake, not a timely help.

Currently, "Infinite Star: Heaven-Laying Net" and "Infinite Star: Information Hub" both borrow the "Information Flow Physical Rules" of the Void Dragon.

In fact, the name "Divination-type" is not accurate enough.

Accepting "Warp Information" and "Universe: Akashic Record Information" to achieve the effect of "predicting the future" is more accurately called "Information-type."

Returning to the Warhammer worldview next to loot the Necron Dynasty, "Information-type Psionics" will be much more useful than a single "Psychokinesis-type."

It is true that the Void Dragon is bound to the "Infinite Star: World Tree," but being constantly controlled by others is not a solution.

Giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish; to forge iron, one must be strong oneself!

Meng Yi settles on "Information-type Psionics," subtly guiding his mental plane to manifest a "Psionic Tree," giving birth to a fourth branch.

Many "Bai Xue Knowledge" items, including the analysis of "Otsutsuki: Karma Technology," become nutrients for the growth of this fourth branch.

When the gathered knowledge reaches a certain limit, Meng Yi's "A-grade Psionics" and "Bai Xue System: Information-type" begin to resonate.

The huge light tree, growing in a triple-helix structure, successfully splits off a fourth, pure white, flawless branch, symbolizing knowledge, information, and wisdom...

The newly born "Information-type branch" grows rapidly until it is identical to the "Mind-type," "Biochemical-type," and "Energy-type."

[Notification: Player "Bai Mo"'s fundamental system "A-grade Psionics" resonates with the "Bai Xue System," "Information-type Psionics" unlocked!]

Day 269, 16h.

The divine light in Meng Yi's pupils is restrained, and the disguise of an ordinary intellectual covers his original inhuman aura.

Due to the improvement in mental strength, "Molecular-level Micro-domain Interference" evolves into "Atomic-level Micro-domain Interference"!

"What a wonderful feeling."

With a thought, Meng Yi uses the integration technique of "Tailed Beast: Baryon Mode" to interfere with the energy level fluctuations within the surrounding atoms.

"BOOM—!!"

Atoms as small as 0.1~0.5nm instantly erupt with terrifying energy tides!

The surging gale shakes the lush branches of the World Tree, billions of law threads bathe in the energy torrent, and the frequencies beyond visible light form a magnificent, dreamlike scene.

"Inhale—"

Meng Yi takes a long breath, swallowing energy comparable to the explosion of thousands of Tsar Bombas to replenish the "Infinite Star's" energy reserves, treating it as if he just took a puff of a cigarette.

"The 'Energy Core v1.5: Small Fusion Reactor' can be upgraded."

Originally, to prevent the uncontrollability brought by large-scale fusion, the fusion reactors Meng Yi built were all very small, the largest being only the size of a Guardian-sequence core.

With "Atomic-level Precision: Micro-domain Interference," nuclear fusion is his toy; he can knead it however he wants.

Medium? Large?

No, no, no. Meng Yi wants to build a super-large fusion reactor to serve as the "sun" of the "Infinite Star."

Returning to his Warhammer home, he will use the total matter of the Ember star system to build a Dyson Sphere that constantly extracts stellar energy, using it as an external energy supply for the "Infinite Star" to push the volume of the "Infinite Star" to rise rapidly.

"Weiyang friend, I'm already this strong, and you still won't die?!"

Meng Yi curls his lips, revealing a refined and gentle smile, then sets off for the experimental area to add various "tech and ruthless" elements to Otsutsuki Isshiki's brain.

……

Land of Demons.

Meng Yi wants to ambush Weiyang, and Xianmo Weiyang naturally wants to eliminate Meng Yi as quickly as possible.

Since the Moon Star Battle, Weiyang has captured the Sage of Six Paths and Six Paths Hashirama.

By analyzing the "Natural Sage Technology," he has perfected his unstable "Immortal-Demon Unity."

Black demonic energy and white immortal energy swirl, and a stable Immortal-Demon Yin-Yang diagram rotates slowly behind him.

"The next improvement route should involve the 'Faith Buddha,' merging the 'Immortal-Demon-Buddha: Three Qi Return'."

"However, I must kick fellow Daoist Bai Mo out of the game."

At this moment, Xianmo Weiyang is full of confidence, believing that Bai Mo is no longer a match for him!

Having completed "Immortal-Demon Unity," he possesses top-tier Tier 6 combat power. Added with auxiliary means like the Soul of the Calamity Beast, crushing a Bai Mo is no more difficult than crushing an insect.

Waving his hand to blow up a star? Easy.

Weiyang chuckles maliciously: "Only those who are qualified can be called 'fellow Daoist' by me. Fellow Daoist Bai Mo, are you still qualified now?"

Bai Mo has divided his benefits from two "Ninja World Trials."

He wants to add his own private agenda to the "Ninja World Final Trial Plan," but fears that the heaven-slaying beast Bai Mo will steal his techniques.

After much thought, he can only invite Bai Mo to join his "Ten Thousand Soul Banner family" and become one of his "own people."

Xianmo Weiyang shakes the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, and the soul of the Buddha-child falls out.

The Buddha-child's heart remains clear, but the soul, condensed into a physical Buddha body, appears dim and lusterless, looking like a phantom ready to dissipate at any moment.

Blood-colored chains pierce the Buddha-child's soul body, absorbing its soul source to strengthen the foundation of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, while simultaneously inflicting endless pain and torture on the Buddha-child.

"Guan Zizai, you have defied me again and again, even going behind my back to do small things with that beast. Did you really think I wouldn't notice?"

Sitting on the black-red throne, Weiyang rests his cheek on his arm, looking coldly at the tortured "Buddha-child: Guan Zizai."

Weiyang crooks his finger, and the chains extending from the Ten Thousand Soul Banner drag the Buddha-child, forcibly standing the soul up.

"What did you say to Bai Mo using 'Telepathy' during the Moon Star Battle?"

"Tell me, and I might forgive you one more time. If not, become a part of me."

Meng Yi first came into contact with idealistic means and could not see the principles contained within.

Weiyang is different; he is the residue of a Tier 12 True Demon. Although he has never involved himself in the Dao of Buddha, he has killed many Buddhist enemies.

How could a mere little monk from the human world hide his small actions from Weiyang? It's just that he doesn't yet know what information the Buddha-child leaked.

"Great Demon of the Troubled Times, do not act on your delusions."

Sinking in endless pain, with his soul origin almost drained, the Buddha-child looks compassionate, as if he cannot feel the pain.

"Delusions? Hahahaha!!"

Xianmo Weiyang laughs arrogantly, his face, which should have been as handsome as jade, suddenly filled with extreme, self-centered demonic intent.

"I have had enough of you, you damned thieving monk!!"

"It seems I treated you too well before, making you repeatedly harbor delusions!"

"Before eliminating fellow Daoist Bai Mo, I will eat you, this thieving monk, to lay the foundation for the 'Immortal-Demon-Buddha: Three Qi Return,' which can also be considered making room for fellow Daoist Bai Mo."

The Buddha-child remains unmoved, chanting the Buddha's name: "If I do not enter hell, who will?"

"Failing to convert the Great Demon is because this little monk's cultivation is not enough; this tribulation is deserved."

"Karma is cyclical, retribution is swift. In the past, I asked the Sage of Six Paths to die; today, my death is well-deserved."

"Great Demon of the Troubled Times, you eat me today, but who will eat you tomorrow?"

Weiyang is too lazy to listen to the Buddha-child's twisted logic and beckons to capture the Buddha-child's soul.

"Crunch—"

"Crunch—"

Golden Buddha-child soul blood flows from the corners of Weiyang's mouth, and the Immortal-Demon Yin-Yang diagram gradually clings to imperceptible golden light spots.

After eating the Buddha-child, Weiyang wipes the blood from his mouth and says disdainfully: "Who will eat me? Ridiculous!"

"It has always been me eating others; how can there be talk of others eating me?"

"You thieving monk are not good enough, the beast Bai Mo is not good enough, and the 'Master of the Immortal Palace: Ying' is not good enough!"

"I will step by step, step by step, return to the peak, surpass the past, and ascend to the ultimate realm!"
