545 First High-Dimensional Power Grasped

Xu Jingming nodded and walked out of the study to the balcony.

He stood in front of the balcony railing and looked at the myriad lights on this habitable planet. He could vaguely see some aircraft in the distance, and he was in a good mood. He could sense the transformation of his mind; it had grown stronger.

The Primordial Star is really magical. As one’s visualization becomes more detailed and closer to the real Primordial Star, one’s mental strength can undergo a transformation. Xu Jingming sighed in amazement.

This was one of the three strongest legacies of the human race. Countless outstanding evolvers in history had relied on this to become cosmic legends or even high-dimensional lifeforms.

!!
Of course, there were only three high-dimensional human lifeforms still alive.

High-dimensional!

Xu Jingming had a strong feeling that he would definitely succeed this time.

Transcend spacetime and break free! Xu Jingming’s transformed mental strength instantly drew greater strength from the Primordial Battle Armor. Primordial Battle Armor #9 was a cornerstone treasure of the Primordial Research Institute, and the energy it contained was unbelievable. Even after years of research, with greatly improved knowledge, and a transformed mind, he could only draw a small portion from it.

Boom!

Xu Jingming felt that the strength he drew on was much greater than in the past. If he was like a little bird flapping its wings and flying high in the sky in the past, he was now a giant bird soaring into the sky!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The many spacetime layers that were originally very restrictive became very weak after his strength increased exponentially. He instantly broke free from his restraints!

Xu Jingming disappeared from the balcony.

I—

Xu Jingming looked around in surprise.

In Xu Jingming’s vision, space and time instantly shrank, and his gaze could observe an area of more than ten light-years!

I can see everything within a spherical diameter of 12.8 light-years? Xu Jingming was very surprised. From his vision, the diameter of 12.8 light-years appeared miniature.

It shrank like a three-dimensional model in his vision. He could see the front, back, left, right, interior, and exterior of the model clearly.

He could see everything in the 12.8 light-years, even the flow of light. Light slowed down, and the stars, planets, and celestial bodies felt as fragile as toys.

“Nine, is this a high-dimensional perspective?” Xu Jingming asked.

“To be precise, it’s an Origin lifeform’s perspective in high-dimensional space. If you become a high-dimensional lifeform, what you see will feel much more different,” Nine replied.

Xu Jingming came to a realization. Although he had entered a high-dimensional space, his eyes were still those of an Origin lifeform.

He wondered what feelings high-dimensional lifeforms had when they took in things.

“Master, you have indeed entered high-dimensional space, but you can’t see any other matter or creatures in high-dimensional space,” Nine said. “The diameter you can see now is 12.8 light-years. You can travel in high-dimensional space relatively precisely, but beyond that… it won’t be too precise.”

Xu Jingming nodded slightly and looked down at the 12.8 light-year-diameter sphere. He had a feeling that as long as he wanted to, he could descend anywhere within this range.

Whoosh.

With a thought, Xu Jingming appeared on the mountain peak of a desolate planet.

High-dimensional traveling. Xu Jingming nodded slightly.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Xu Jingming carried out high-dimensional traveling as his figure appeared everywhere, crossing several light-years every time.

Even if it was a stellar core with violent energy or a cosmic energy storm that wasn’t suitable for teleportation… he could still easily pass through them.

“Master, the energy fluctuations and spacetime chaos here won’t affect your high-dimensional traveling,” Nine stated. “Unless an Origin lifeform’s mental strength ascends to higher dimensions, they won’t be able to see high-dimensional space.”

“Lv. 12 visualization—that’s when my mental strength will reach high-dimensional.” Xu Jingming nodded.

“Yes, if an Origin lifeform’s mental strength reaches the high-dimensional threshold, they can probe through high-dimensional space to discover you and attack you,” Nine said. “Of course, they also have to use high-dimensional powers to threaten you.”

Xu Jingming nodded.

“An Origin lifeform whose mental strength hasn’t reached the high-dimensional threshold can’t injure you, Master,” Nine said.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming was already very proficient. With a thought, he left cosmic spacetime and entered a high-dimensional space state.

He was blind and deaf in high-dimensional space, but it didn’t affect his entry.

What a wonderful feeling. Xu Jingming looked down at the model-like sphere. The billions of humans on that habitable planet were extremely tiny, even smaller than ants.

How weak. I feel like I can wipe them out with a thought. This thought surfaced in Xu Jingming’s mind, and his eyes revealed indifference.

But then, his expression changed. He instantly returned to the habitable planet and to his study.

What’s going on? Xu Jingming sat at his desk with an ugly expression. Why did I think that wiping out billions of humans was normal?

He had grown up weak and cared a lot about ordinary people, but the feeling of being high and mighty in high-dimensional space gave him a feeling that he could easily wipe out everything in those 12.8 light-years. He also knew that it was an illusion; he couldn’t do it with his individual strength. However, that mentality was very abnormal!

“Master, when your Light Rays’ Visualization reaches the 10th level and resonates with the Primordial Star, your mind will naturally become closer and closer to a high-dimensional lifeform.” Nine was very experienced after spending time with many masters. “You just need to maintain self-control.”

“There will be some aftereffects from cultivating the Primordial Star Visualization. I didn’t feel it before, but I’m only beginning to feel it now.”

“The stronger your mind, the stronger the feeling will be. When that happens, you will need more self-control,” Nine said.

Xu Jingming nodded. “I know. It’s recorded in the legacy that in the process of visualizing the Primordial Star, one needs greater self-control as their realm increases. If one can’t control themselves… they will be assimilated by the Primordial Star and eventually descend into a final self-destruction. It’s impossible for them to become a high-dimensional lifeform.”

“It’s very difficult to become a high-dimensional lifeform,” Nine remarked. “The birth of every Paramount is a result of countless crises. Master, by following the dean’s path, the danger has decreased greatly.”

Xu Jingming nodded.

His visualization was only at Lv. 10, and he had only resonated with the Primordial Star for the first time. The influence wasn’t significant, but it would only grow with time.

This was already the best way for humans to increase their mental strength! There were relatively fewer repercussions.

“Nine, I sensed the source of the Primordial Battle Armor’s strength when I used high-dimensional traveling,” Xu Jingming said. He could carry out high-dimensional traveling using the high-dimensional powers contained in the Primordial Battle Armor. Otherwise, solely unleashing high-dimensional powers would’ve made him a cosmic legend.

“That’s Elementium,” Nine explained. “It’s the power source for the numbered Primordial Battle Armor. High-dimensional traveling is only the easiest high-dimensional method for me. Master, you can use other methods when you accumulate deeper knowledge in the future.”

“Will Elementium be consumed from high-dimensional traveling?”

“Yes.” Nine explained, “No power is infinite! To unleash enough might, there naturally has to be consumption. For example, when the Hellion fused some high-dimensional spatial objects to unleash high-dimensional powers, it also drained the high-dimensional objects. The backlash can even be very intense.”

“Even for Paramounts with eternal lifespans, they consume a huge amount of energy at all times. They also need to replenish their energy to form a balance,” Nine said. “Even if the Primordial Battle Armor isn’t used, it will slowly deplete. It consumes more when used. Using high-dimensional means… consume more.”

Xu Jingming nodded.

“When you don’t require me anymore, I’ll return to the Primordial Research Institute and be resupplied with Elementium,” Nine said. “Master, you’ve also seen that the research institute has many sets of battle armor! Why aren’t they distributed on a large scale? It’s because we have to conserve Elementium. They are energy sources obtained by the dean from high-dimensional space, making them very precious.”

“No wonder.” Xu Jingming came to a realization. He had seen many pieces of numbered Primordial Battle Armor and hundreds of black hole-like battle armor, but none of them had been distributed. He now understood why.

The more amazing a battle armor was, the more energy it consumed. It wasn’t distributed willy-nilly, and some even required the dean’s approval.

Instead, the dean didn’t care about ordinary Primordial Battle Armor and allowed generations of Origin lifeforms to use them.

“Nine, with my current strength, I should be able to head to the front line of the Hellion war, right?” Xu Jingming asked. He had applied to head to the front line many times over the years, but he had been rejected.

“After your mental strength transforms, you can better unleash the might of the battle armor. Spacetime and light-type moves can generally reach the might of a peak Lv. 10. Coupled with high-dimensional traveling, your strength is already close to a Regis in advanced cosmic civilizations.”

“Close to a Regis?” Xu Jingming smiled. “It’s still far from that. To be a Regis of an advanced cosmic civilization, one needs to be a peak Lv. 10 Origin lifeform while also successfully grasping a high-dimensional weapon. They are much more intimidating than me.”

“But Master, you can escape. Primordial Battle Armor #9 is the best at escaping among numbered Primordial Battle Armor,” Nine said. “Survival is very important.”

Xu Jingming knew his limits.

In terms of destructive power and other aspects, he was inferior to Regis from advanced cosmic civilizations, nor was he inferior to Mr. Jane, Mr. Yang, and the others.

I can’t defeat the top Hellion Sovereigns, but I can still suppress ordinary Lv. 10 Sovereigns, Xu Jingming thought to himself. He immediately sent another request to head to the front line through the virtual world.

…

At the headquarters of the Primordial Research Institute.

The wide and fat Deputy Dean Redmond read the combat report on the projection and frowned. The situation in the Heavenly Python Cosmic Sector is getting worse and worse! Of the three cosmic sectors bordering the Hellions, our Primordial Research Institute is in charge of guarding the Heavenly Python Cosmic Sector, but our performance has been average recently.

There’s nothing I can do about it.

Secretary General Blacksky stood to the side. “The Hellions are crazy; they treat death as an honor. As for us human Origin lifeforms, we are relatively more concerned about our lives. After all, ‘resurrection’ requires credit. Many Lv. 9 Origin lifeforms don’t have enough credit. If they die, that’s it.”

Redmond nodded.

The attitude both parties had towards combat was different. The Hellions would only cower and escape when they encountered a suicidal situation; otherwise, they weren’t afraid of death. Human Origin lifeforms cherished their lives far more. After all, every one of them had a civilization and a collective faction behind them. How could they die easily?

“Recently, the situation has worsened, and it’s related to the Hellions’ Sovereign Moyou,” Blacksky commented. “The leader of the Heavenly Python Cosmic Sector’s Hellions has been replaced by Sovereign Moyou in recent years! For Sovereign Moyou to become one of the ten Sovereigns of the Hellions, his strength is unquestionable. The high-dimensional power he grasps is known as the Nightmare World. It’s a high-dimensional illusory world invasion… It’s virtually irresistible.”

“We don’t have enough top powerhouses in the Heavenly Python Cosmic Sector,” Blacksky said.

“We can’t transfer cosmic legends over, right? Cosmic legends are mainly used to deter the Void Celestials,” Redmond said.

Suddenly, he saw a piece of mail.

“Xu Jingming has broken through?” Redmond was surprised. “With high-dimensional traveling, he can greatly intimidate the Hellions.”

“High-dimensional traveling?” Blacksky was a little surprised. “Some Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms study high-dimensional weapons, some buy high-dimensional spatial items, and some exchange for cosmic treasures… There are very few who can grasp high-dimensional powers, yet Xu Jingming achieved high-dimensional traveling so quickly?”

“How can those people compare to Xu Jingming?” Redmond smiled and said, “After all, his talent isn’t inferior to mine. Let him go to the front line! Let the Hellions be cloaked by his shadow!”

Redmond smiled and signed his name before issuing the transfer order.
