Chapter 114 Chen Yuan's Intelligent Life
When the system indicated that the optimization was complete, Chen Yuan was focused on meditation in the simulation room. The notification sound from the panel did not interrupt his cultivation rhythm. It wasn't until two hours later that he slowly opened his eyes.
[Entering Meditation - Origin Star Meditation: Mastery (9.4%)]
With the help of the simulation room, my meditation practice is now progressing steadily. If the growth does not slow down, I expect to reach the perfect state in about a year.
Chen Yuan was fairly satisfied with the result.
Perhaps his progress in spiritual cultivation is not outstanding in "Star River Emperor", but his strength lies in his stability.
As long as he continues to cultivate patiently, he will not encounter any bottlenecks and can continue to improve until he reaches the perfection of his cultivation technique.
Therefore, Chen Yuan was not in a hurry. After confirming that he had completed the spiritual cultivation task, he returned to reality with a thought.
Elite Zone, Manor No. 012.
Chen Yuan opened his eyes in the gravity chamber. It was the interval between uses of the nutrient chamber, and he usually stayed in the gravity chamber to help his body absorb the nutrient solution more quickly.
He opened the panel and saw that his cultivation level had reached the eighth level of the planetary stage (87%). He would reach the ninth level of the planetary stage after soaking in the nutrient capsule for at most one more day.
Of course, it's still a long way from the peak of the ninth rank; it will take at least another month.
Chen Yuan moved down from the light and looked at the item optimization panel.
[Intelligent optical brain, rated as a top-tier fifth-tier intelligent life form with immense potential. It possesses extremely high computing speed. Due to its complete binding with the host, the nature of this intelligent life form has changed, and it has received the blessing of the primordial universe, possessing the following effects.]
[1. Increased cultivation potential; with just one 'Heart of Evolution,' one can easily cultivate to the peak of the Realm Lord level and increase the chance of breaking through to Immortality.]
[2. Granted by the primordial universe, possessing the innate secret technique "Possession," in which intelligent life can perfectly merge with the host, greatly enhancing the host's thinking speed.]
Chen Yuan only glanced at the first effect. The Heart of Evolution was far too rare; it was simply something he couldn't access right now.
Furthermore, for intelligent life forms, as long as they obtain the Heart of Evolution, they can basically cultivate to the Realm Lord stage. The optimized Wind Spirit simply has better aptitude, making cultivation easier for it.
But ultimately, without an Evolutionary Heart worth billions of Mixed Units, it's all just empty talk.
Therefore, although there are many intelligent life forms in the human realm, very few are capable of cultivation; most are simply used as advanced auxiliary tools.
So he looked directly at the second ability.
"A secret innate technique, possession?"
Upon seeing this, he smiled slightly, seemingly surprised that an intelligent life form could also acquire a talent technique, especially one bestowed by the primordial universe.
But upon closer examination, intelligent life forms, to be precise, do indeed belong to a kind of "life," so it's understandable that they possess innate secret techniques.
All Chen Yuan knew, according to the panel, was that this primordial universe had bestowed upon him a mutation that occurred after he was fully bound to it.
As for why he suddenly acquired the secret technique, Chen Yuan said that he was also unaware of the operating rules of the original universe.
"Could it be that the primordial universe recognized the wind spirits as a new race?"
As Chen Yuan speculated, he took the Wind Sprite out of the optimization panel.
He then immediately took out another evolution agent from his spatial ring and quickly put it into the optimization slot.
[S-type Bloodline Evolution Agent, Remaining Time: 40 days]
[S-type Bloodline Evolution Agent, Remaining Time: 10 days]
"Great, now both evolution agents are being optimized."
Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the silver-white arm guard on his hand.
"Wind Spirit, restart."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling light emanated from the silver-white arm guards, and a moment later, a projection appeared before them.
Chen Yuan looked closely and saw that the projection showed a girl with a perfect appearance.
She had long, smooth, jet-black hair, a flowing turquoise dress, pointed ears, fair skin, and a pair of bright, dazzling emerald eyes that would make even the purest emerald pale in comparison.
She looks exactly like an elegant and perfect elven princess.
Seemingly noticing Chen Yuan's gaze, the elven girl smiled, lifted her skirt slightly, and gave a slight bow: "Master, the wind spirit is at your service."
"Are you really a wind spirit?"
Chen Yuan snapped out of his daze, his eyes wide with a strange look: "Why are you depicted as a woman? Do intelligent life forms even have gender awareness?"
"Intelligent life—since it is called life, it will naturally have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and all kinds of emotions."
The elven girl smiled slightly: "It's perfectly normal for gender awareness to develop in this process."
"Besides, I obtained quite a bit of information from it when my soul was bound to my master." She lifted her skirt slightly, twirled gracefully, and raised her voice slightly: "Logically speaking, this image should perfectly match your aesthetic sense. Isn't it beautiful?"
Chen Yuan was speechless for a moment.
The wind spirit was right, but that was precisely what made him feel awkward.
The other person's appearance was excessively perfect; every detail precisely matched his aesthetic preferences, to the point that at first glance...
The sight of him was so stunning that it amazed him. Although Chen Yuan quickly controlled his emotions thanks to his strong mental fortitude, he still felt a little strange thinking about having to spend every day with such a person.
It's like something that's always been used as a tool has suddenly transformed into a perfect woman who completely matches his preferences and says she'll always be by his side. To be honest, this feeling makes Chen Yuan very uncomfortable, and he always feels like it's distracting him.
Shaking his head, Chen Yuan let out a soft breath and said slowly, "It does look good, but—could you change your look?"
"I would feel very uncomfortable around this kind of person."
"Of course," the elven girl said with a smile, "Your wish is my mission."
With a flash of light, the wind sprite's appearance changed—though it was still largely the same elven girl.
But he looks much younger, from seventeen or eighteen years old to seven or eight years old.
The allure that once lingered in her smile has vanished, replaced by a sense of innocent cuteness.
"Master, is this look alright?" the little wind sprite asked with a grin, her round face still chubby with baby fat.
It seems that after her size decreased, her personality also became more lively.
That's fine.
Chen Yuan nodded. Although the changes weren't significant, at least they wouldn't distract him anymore. He then asked, "Wind Spirit, tell me about your innate secret technique?"
"I don't know either." The little wind sprite tilted its head. "It seems that ever since I became conscious, this secret technique has been ingrained in my instincts, and I can use it at any time."
She blinked her big eyes at Chen Yuan: "Master, would you like to give it a try?"
"Okay." Chen Yuan nodded. "Let's begin."
"Yes, sir."
As soon as the wind spirit finished speaking, its body glowed, and then it transformed into a stream of light, merging with Chen Yuan's body.
In a daze, Chen Yuan seemed to see the adult version of the wind spirit opening its arms to him, and then he felt his thinking speed begin to rise wildly.
"So fast, and so effective!"
Chen Yuan felt that his thinking speed had increased a thousandfold in an instant.
With such high-speed mental processing, problems that were previously difficult to solve are being analyzed at an astonishing speed.
He tried to use this speed of thinking to analyze the essence of the law, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the efficiency of analyzing the law was also greatly improved.
Even compared to viewing the Purple Radiance Diagram, his efficiency in analyzing the laws at this moment is no worse, and may even be slightly better.
Unfortunately, this state of affairs did not last long.
Just an hour later, Chen Yuan's nose started bleeding, forcing him to stop.
Perhaps because he had gotten used to the benefits of high-speed operation, after returning to normal thinking, he felt his brain was terribly sluggish, and it took him a while to recover.
"Master, you lasted for a total of one hour, three minutes, and 28 seconds in the fusion state."
The reappearing miniature wind spirit reports: "Based on calculations, with your current physical condition, after one hour of possession, you will experience symptoms such as ruptured capillaries, and after one and a half hours, your brain cells will suffer extensive necrosis."
She held up two little fingers, her face serious: "If it exceeds two hours, you will have a 99.98% chance of dying."
