Chapter 345: Triple Fusion

“Use yourself as a pillar, endure all kinds of pressure. This incantation lasts forever, extinguishing self-ignition, for all things have a master!”

“Gather the source to form the incantation, creating a shape in all directions.”

Yun Ye personally completed the curse ceremony.

Whether it was the ritual tools or the ceremony and incantation itself, these elements amplified the curse. While it might still work without them, having them would certainly be beneficial.

As the incantation was spoken, the surging Spirit Law Power took shape in the air, wrapping the ceremony in a dark aura.

The powerful energy field forced Yang Yu and the others to retreat to the edge of the water barrier, just a thin layer of flowing water separating them from a massive swarm of insects. They felt extremely uneasy and hoped Yun Ye would finish quickly.

This ceremony took longer compared to the instant activation of ordinary Techniques. Yun Ye chanted the incantation for minutes, weaving in numerous spirit patterns and gathering an amazing amount of curse power.

Finally, he ended with the name of the curse and ignited all the cursed energy.

“Curse of the Thousand Insects’ Vengeance, reveal the truth!”

Boom!

The talisman paper on the altar suddenly ignited, turning to black ash in an instant.

Immediately after, invisible ripples spread out, and everyone present felt a force swirling outward, passing through them as if they were not the targets. However, the insects were not so fortunate; as the ripples passed, they froze in place and fell in clusters.

The ripples spread surprisingly far, enveloping the entire junkyard, and continued to ripple outward. Wherever they passed, all chosen insects stiffened, as if their souls had been drawn out, dying silently.

The junkyard, once noisy with the insects flying around, fell silent after the incantation was cast.

Only the heavy snow continued to fall, and the fierce wind howled on.

“Success!!!!”

The sound of cheers suddenly rang out in the snowy day.

…

“Hmm, an excellent plan. This level can even inspire other researchers’ thoughts. I estimate it will soon be reported to the whole school, and it will be filed for future reference. When the time comes, it will be easier for you to upgrade in the Tomorrow Society— I must say, impressive.”

After reviewing the Spirit Law structure, Yang An unhesitatingly approved the project and gave it the highest evaluation.

The importance of this project exceeded that of an ordinary excellent work.

Clearly, the project to eliminate mosquitoes was not only for the residents of Tomorrow City’s environment but also held strategic significance.

“The merit evaluation will be sent to you later; you should at least receive four months’ worth of resource allocation as recognition for your efforts over these past two months.”

“Thank you, teacher. We will take our leave now.”

The group bowed respectfully.

“When conducting projects, don’t forget to practice; this is very important for you.”

“Okay, teacher.”

“We will pay attention.”

As they stepped out of the office, the group exchanged glances and smiled.

“The project has once again come to a successful end.”

“Completing an interesting project also brings great rewards and honor.”

“No wonder the chief says, ‘Effort yields rewards; it’s one of the best things in the world!’”

Yang Yu smiled as she opened her book, writing down the lines of text, as she had a habit of keeping a diary. “Has everyone thought about what the next project will be?”

“Ah, let’s take our time. I don’t feel inspired right now.” Wu Xianzhang walked with a swagger, his hands clasped behind his head, looking just like a crab.

This time, it took them two months to finish the project; their brains felt exhausted.

“Is that so? Well, if an interesting project comes up, we can discuss it then.”

Yang Yu didn’t feel tired at all. She leaned more towards research; otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen to pursue the scholar sequence. Being a Sixth Rank Scholar at the age of four was rare in some ways, especially as the knowledge requirement increased and the standards for becoming a Sixth Rank Scholar rose as well.

While discussing future projects, they all headed to the cafeteria.

It was already afternoon, and it was the perfect time for a meal before heading back.

However, when they finally queued for food, they noticed that there were insects among the dishes, and in an instant, their appetites vanished…

As they sat down at the dining table, the kids exchanged looks, unsure of how to take the first bite.

“I heard these are spirit insects, very beneficial for growth?”

Yang Yu poked at the lively-looking insects.

“…”

Tian Jialun struggled to maintain his expression. He already found insects disgusting and felt revolted; now, he was expected to bite into one?

“I suddenly feel that the cafeteria isn’t so great after all.”

Wu Xianzhang sighed deeply. His family was quite poor, and eating at the cafeteria saved a lot of money, but the biggest downside was the lack of choices. It was a compromise between cost and nutrition from the Tomorrow Society’s fourth agency.

Saying they were spirit insects meant they were really spirit insects. Only the geniuses from prestigious families could eat the good stuff; ordinary kids like them had no such luck.

He closed his eyes and forced one into his mouth, chewing wildly and swallowing without wanting to sense the taste or texture of the insect.

However, from a cultivator’s perspective, this was clearly a nightmare.

In some ways, the higher the cultivation level, the less one could tolerate ordinary food. Eating was excruciating; it was far better to consume spirit pills to stave off hunger.

“How is it?”

Yun Ye suddenly asked.

“It’s pretty good.”

Wu Xianzhang replied blankly.

“Hey!”

Everyone sighed; they could tell Wu Xianzhang was lying, but they couldn’t waste food and could only swallow it down.

Yun Ye also kept his distance from insects. He somewhat understood Wu Cheng. People truly got eroded without realizing it, didn’t they?

Without restraint, if one allowed desires to inflate, the best choice would naturally be to become a supreme being of the Celestial Empire. Not only would they have the power of life and death, countless beautiful companions, but they would also possess endless lifespans and enjoy the most splendid riches of the world.

Saying this, Yun Ye felt tempted to abandon the idea of dealing with these noble families.

Why not directly reincarnate as the heir to the largest Spiritual Law family and enjoy life with his superior Spiritual Law skills? Why choose the most difficult path?

After everyone finished their meal, it was already dusk. As the dark clouds dispersed, the evening light illuminated the earth.

Yun Ye casually sat on a bench under a tree at the school, feeling somewhat reflective.

“What a pity; I truly long for it. Other than anger, I…”

“I long for it!”

(I hope the proposal for optimizing physical conditions can reduce some conflicts. The Tomorrow Society bears too many hopes.)

When Yun Ye had previously identified the issue, he brought up the topic of ordinary beings with Mingqi. He didn’t expect that within just a month, they were preparing to begin.

It seemed that the higher level of the Tomorrow Society was aware of the significant internal problems and needed to win more support from ordinary beings.

If that didn’t work, they would have to rely on Qi Lian.

Although she wasn’t someone he could fully trust, the safety of the Tomorrow Society largely depended on her at this moment; it was impossible not to trust her.

Though the Dao Weapon could also kill Qi Lian, that would only happen if she suddenly lost her mind and began a massacre.

If she simply defected, the Dao Weapon would have little effect, and without Qi Lian, the Tomorrow Society would likely perish quickly.

At that point, Qi Lian would naturally break free from the knowledge limitations imposed by the Tomorrow Dao Weapon.

She had no need to act personally.

“I really don’t know whether Qi Lian’s presence is a blessing or a curse. With her here, things are advancing much faster than I expected, but it has also exposed more flaws and drawn us into great conflicts we had never even considered.”

“One mistake, and the Tomorrow Society could turn to ashes…”

Yun Ye leaned back on the bench, under the evening sun, as a flood of Spirit Law information flashed through his eyes. He wanted to see the furthest “possibility” he could perceive.

While researching the “Curse of the Thousand Insects’ Vengeance,” Yun Ye had been utilizing the power of the Nine Lives Spirit Law. Through this method, he could determine whether his research direction was correct.

Two months of practical application had improved his level of the Nine Lives Spirit Law to some extent.

With the Third Life defined, he should be able to see further into the future.

“Nine Lives Spirit Law—Reveal the Truth of Heavenly Reason!”

Define the destiny!

Peer into the river of cause and effect!

Yun Ye’s perspective rose higher and higher, and a vast river appeared—this was the essence of the Tomorrow Society’s dragon vein.

This river allowed him to see the past, present, and future.

The past was depicted in black, representing established facts and unchangeable outcomes.

The present shone in white, representing current facts and the reality being established.

The future was colorless, indicating uncertain facts and ever-changing possibilities.

Yun Ye had no interest in delving into the past or present.

He moved straight toward the future.

The black river extended back two or three decades to the time of the Tomorrow Society’s founding, while the white river branched into countless tributaries, revealing various possibilities.

The further back he looked, the more transparent and colorless it became, eventually fading into the void where it was completely invisible.

The last time Yun Ye saw the colorless river, it stretched for about three months. Just two months later, that length had grown to five months, nearing half a year!

“What is this?”

Yun Ye showed a look of surprise.

He saw a vast amount of fortune flowing into the river ahead, indicating that the Tomorrow Society was displaying an extremely prosperous posture.

It seemed that the anticipated good news would continue to arrive, or perhaps the spirit pills for physical improvement had finally been produced.

The Tomorrow Society had previously proposed this plan, but after some time, they realized their resources were completely inadequate and had to seal it away.

This time, by restarting, they could directly draw on the experiences of the past, making it possible to achieve results in a short time.

As for where the Tomorrow Society’s resources would come from…

The more the Dao lineage defended against attacks, the larger the hunting grounds for the Tomorrow Society became, which was obviously different from when Yun Ye was at the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect.

“Sixty years? Let’s consider it a time worth fighting for.”

Yun Ye let out a long sigh.

He extended his hand, and the powers of water and fire manifested, then suddenly fused to form a terrifying black sphere. However, it only lasted a brief moment before disappearing, not even qualifying as entry-level.

“Extreme Spirit Transformation with a dual attribute, the higher-level form of Eternal Silence—should it be called Transforming Dark Eternal Silence?”

In this lifetime, his potential far exceeded that of the last one, giving him the possibility of merging the three major attributes.

Attribute fusion amplified the power nearly multiplicatively.

The power generated from merging triple attributes with the control of fourth-tier spirit energy was 10,000 * 10,000 * 10,000.

This kind of power was frightening, but the difficulty of fusion was also immense.

Although he could currently fuse the triple attributes, he could neither control them nor harness their true power; most of his control was spent on stabilization, significantly weakening the force.

If the ultimate power of the triple attributes were represented as 10,000 * 10,000 * 10,000, he was now at about 1,000 * 1,000 * 1,000, far exceeding the Extreme Spirit dual attributes but still not reaching the level of the Extreme Spirit triple attributes.

Let alone the Extreme Spirit Transformation with triple attributes.

“With Spirit Sense participating in attribute fusion, both the difficulty and power greatly increase! Luckily, the Extreme Spiritual Law reduces the difficulty; otherwise, it would take me at least ten years, even twenty years, to initially complete the triple attributes in this life!”

Yun Ye was satisfied with himself; this was close to invincible power. Achieving even a preliminary form was already astonishing—time was not a concern.

What he feared most was not being able to cultivate, regardless of how much time passed!

“Phew, time to study some more.”

Yun Ye stood up and left.

At the same time, a cool figure stood in the teaching building, gazing at Yun Ye’s departing silhouette for a long time.

“Principal? What’s wrong?”

Someone nearby asked cautiously. They looked out the window but saw nothing amiss.

“Nothing, just marveling at how talented Ming Waiyang really is. It seems past evaluations were completely off—time for a reassessment.”

The silver-haired beauty resumed her walk.

The teachers exchanged glances, wondering what had just happened to make her completely overturn her plans.

“The dual Extreme Spirit Transformation with a dark attribute has power comparable to an ordinary triple attribute.”

“And if it’s the Extreme Spirit Transformation with triple attributes, that adds several buffs on top of the triple attributes, making it near-invincible. Slaying beings in the True Realm is entirely possible, perhaps even effortlessly…”

“Yuexin, it’s time to take the next step.”

Yun Ye looked in a certain direction and smiled slightly before immersing himself in his studies, gathering all beneficial knowledge.

As night fully descended, Yun Ye suddenly realized it was already quite late. He quickly tidied up and left the library.

At the moment he exited the library, Yun Ye felt a strong sense of dislocation, as if space were shifting, attempting to forcibly take him away.

Everything before him blurred, resembling a kaleidoscope, with the world turning upside down.

However, Yun Ye’s movements showed no hesitation; he continued to walk forward expressionlessly, the only difference was the sudden surge of black energy erupting from beneath his feet.

As the energy spread, it caused numerous cracks to appear around Yun Ye.

“Crash!”

The sound of shattering glass echoed continuously. Yun Ye paid no mind to who might be orchestrating this or what their intentions were; he simply walked through this area as if it were normal.

In the cracked zone, all interference proved utterly ineffective. Illusion Array? Spatial Transfer? Or something else?

All useless.

At the end of the pathway was a small flowerbed in the school, where a man stood.

He wore a golden cloak, and a golden mask covered his face, completely blocking his energy and appearance. His hands rested on a beautiful sword, its scabbard adorned with many silver patterns, thrust into the ground, supporting his body.

Yun Ye held no interest in him and casually walked past.

At that instant, the man’s throat bobbed, wanting to say something, but cold sweat drenched his back; he didn’t dare utter a word…

Only when Yun Ye had walked far away did he crumble to the ground, gasping for breath, overtaken by fear.

What kind of monster was this?

The anti-god array, which could easily trap and slay beings in the law realms, was rendered entirely ineffective? No, not ineffective; it was as if it had been forcibly annihilated!

In just a brief moment, the power of the anti-god array was erased, making it impossible to approach this monster!
