Chapter 939: Unleashed Potential Not Fully Realized (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Lin Qi looked at his teacher, Lei Zun; Lei Zun was the undisputed number one among the human race, so her extraordinary talent was understandable.

If they weren’t legendary geniuses, it could only mean humanity had a problem.

Then what about his own teacher, Lei Zun?

She was also among the top ten undisputed champions of humanity, holding her own honorific title.

Without sufficient talent, one simply could not advance.

So his teacher Lei Zun’s talent was certainly not as low as his third senior sister Zhong He had claimed.

She might have originally possessed only an ordinary Thunder Body, but later gained a heavenly opportunity that elevated her talent significantly.

She must have at least ten abilities—otherwise how could she rank in the top ten?

Yet he did not ask; as a disciple, it was inappropriate to inquire into such matters.

Then the Lord of Tianyuan on the main seat spoke again:

“Lin Qi, are you very curious about the Journey of Life?”

“You may wonder: you’ve already reached the peak of the Four Cosmic Realms, your bloodline value fully cultivated.”

“Logically, your physical strength should have hit its limit and cannot improve further.”

“Only by breaking into the Fifth Cosmic Realm could you continue to grow stronger.”

“Yet after drinking the Journey of Life, you still can improve.”

Lin Qi nodded: “I indeed have this doubt.”

“Lord, what is the reason?”

The Lord of Tianyuan lifted his cup, sipped the fine wine, then explained:

“It’s because your body’s potential has not yet been fully awakened.”

“Though you can raise your bloodline value and awaken bodily potential by cultivating a Nine Heavens-level scripture, greatly enhancing your physical strength.”

“Ordinary Star Domain geniuses may have already awakened all their potential early on.”

“But legendary geniuses are different—even Nine Heavens-level techniques cannot fully awaken their bodily potential.”

“At most, they awaken only 90%.”

“After all, the scriptures of the supreme factions have been modified by supreme beings, to make them accessible to the vast majority of geniuses.”

“So the truth is, your physical qualities still have tremendous room for growth.”

“Exactly how much you can improve depends entirely on you.”

“Before breaking into the Fifth Cosmic Realm, every genius strives to solidify their foundation as much as possible.”

“Only then can they possess greater combat power upon breaking through.”

“As for the combat power divisions of the Fifth Cosmic Realm, I assume you’ve already seen them.”

“Without a powerful foundation of talent, one cannot become an undisputed champion.”

“So you must now strive to enhance your understanding of cosmic laws and your physical strength.”

“Yet the cultivation points and rare treasures required in this process will be immense.”

“For you, this should not be difficult.”

“Your gains in the Abyss Secret Realm have made your wealth surpass that of many Fifth Cosmic Realm beings.”

“I have great faith in you.”

“Here is my contact information!”

“If you encounter problems or difficulties, you may ask me.”

As he spoke, the Lord of Tianyuan waved his hand, and a string of digital symbols appeared.

It was his virtual account.

Lin Qi’s heart leapt with joy; he immediately added it.

Beside him, Lei Zun smiled: “Lin Qi, not every Fourth Cosmic Realm being receives the Lord of Tianyuan’s contact information.”

Lin Qi promptly added the Lord of Tianyuan’s account and said:

“Thank you, Lord!”

The Lord of Tianyuan waved his hand:

“Our human race is on the rise, but the other five peak races refuse to see us ascend.”

“They have united against us.”

“Our rise has been too recent; our champions are still too few.”

“We hope geniuses like you will grow swiftly.”

“Do not perish along the way.”

“Once you perish, not only is vast time wasted, but your will and spirit suffer a tremendous blow.”

“Some geniuses, after perishing once, shatter their Dao heart and never recover.”

“I hope you cherish your life and grow stronger.”

“In the future battlefield, I hope to see you forge greater achievements and leave behind your own legend.”

Lin Qi’s expression turned solemn: “I will grow stronger.”

Everyone had high hopes for his talent.

But it was also pressure—if he disappointed them, the Lord of Tianyuan would be deeply let down.

Many geniuses had been crushed by such pressure.

Yet none among those around him had suffered such a fate.

Though pressure existed, no one had collapsed.

It was because his presence had lowered the expectations placed on other geniuses.

They only needed to chase his footsteps.

The Lord of Tianyuan nodded and waved his hand:

“Keep drinking!”

“Drink more of the Journey of Life.”

Lin Qi nodded and took the bottle from the intelligent lifeform.

One bottle held only 750 milliliters, and more than half had gone into his stomach.

It was equivalent to consuming over fifty million cultivation points.

Yet he felt it was worth every bit.

His physical qualities were slowly improving—even a tiny increase, once converted into combat power, was extraordinary.

……

Several hours later, Lin Qi and the other three took their leave.

On the way back,

Lei Zun spoke:

“Lin Qi, the Lord of Tianyuan sees great potential in you, which is why he gave you his contact.”

“It’s also a favor extended to you.”

“If you ever face threats from other undisputed champions—or even Fifth Cosmic Realm Lords—you may seek his aid.”

“If he can help, he will.”

“This is good for you.”

“Though I am an undisputed champion, my origins are humble.”

“My background is not strong enough; if I encounter beings with deep connections, I may be powerless.”

“Now, with the Lord of Tianyuan’s support, you will be safer.”

“Even as a legendary genius, some beings still do not fear you.”

“To them, a genius who has not yet grown is still just a genius.”

“Now you will be safer within humanity.”

Lei Zun shook his head:

“Pity my strength is still too weak.”

“For a legendary genius like you, teachers are usually Fifth Cosmic Realm Lords.”

“Not someone like me, merely an undisputed champion.”

Lin Qi laughed: “My talent wasn’t this high before.”

“No Lord was willing to be my teacher.”

“Only you took me in.”

“Even if the Lord of Tianyuan offered to be my teacher now, I’d refuse.”

“And with your talent, you will surely become a Lord.”

Lei Zun’s stern face broke into a smile:

“I will definitely break into the Fifth Cosmic Realm.”

“Don’t worry—I still have many friends.”

“Before you break into the Fifth Cosmic Realm, I guarantee your safety.”

……

Moments later, the two parted ways, returning to their respective rooms in the base.

In the spacious, luxurious bedroom, Lei Zun sat cross-legged on the bed, draped in a purple robe.

Looking at the information projected before him, he shook his head and sighed:
