415: Mortal Realm Limit

Lu Xin currently comprehends a total of eighty-one complete laws.

Based on his exploration over the past two and a half years, a law ring formed by three laws is considered an entry into the laws, nine laws are minor completion, twenty-seven laws are major completion, and eighty-one laws are perfect completion.

And in Chen De's mental space at this moment, a huge law ring floats.

It consists of three rings, each ring composed of three smaller rings, which in turn are made up of even smaller rings, and inside the smallest rings are three light points.

Each light point represents a law, and after Chen De's laws reached perfection, their external appearance underwent a massive change.

How to put it, they look very similar to the law seeds he obtained.

This gives Chen De reason to suspect that law seeds can not only form naturally but also be condensed through artificial comprehension?

For example, after cultivating laws to a certain extent, one can condense law seeds and bestow them upon others.

However, what Chen De has condensed so far are only semi-finished products, so it's hard to draw a conclusion.

Also, after years of probing the Ancient Hall, Chen De has pretty much figured out the strength levels of the Ancient Hall's powerhouses.

There's no need to mention the cannon fodder like the Saint Monarchs and Envoys; it's completely unnecessary. Just talking about the Hall Master-level powerhouses will suffice.

The Vice Hall Master of the Ancient Hall, Tantai Zhen—yes, the one who was instantly killed—should be at the level of a major completion of a single law ring, around thirty laws.

The Hall Master of the Ancient Hall, Wang Teng, is much more powerful than him, estimated to have eighty laws, making him a true peak of major law completion.

At this level, it seems Wang Teng has been stuck for many years.

Whether it's the mutual exclusion of laws or a leap across major tiers, both are extremely difficult.

After all, not everyone can be like Chen De, where the difficulty of comprehending each law is the same.

For others, the difficulty of comprehending the next law increases linearly after each law is fully comprehended.

Especially when stuck in the gap between major tier advancements, it is the most challenging.

According to Chen De's estimation, Wang Teng's eighty-first law has probably been comprehended to 98%.

It's just this last bit that prevents him from breaking through.

And it's this last bit that makes both perfection and major completion qualitative leaps.

Without achieving this qualitative change, his strength remains firmly suppressed by Chen De.

At the same time, after reaching eighty-one laws, Chen De could no longer add more.

It seems this is a limit, the limit of mortal realm laws as spoken of by the Ancient Hall.

Even though he still possesses numerous laws, he couldn't fill them up, nor could he continue to add law rings.

Therefore, to further enhance his strength, Chen De also concurrently cultivated the martial artist system.

Unfortunately, the martial artist system overlaps too much with the demon cultivation system and body cultivation system; its amplification effect on Chen De is only 50% of body cultivation.

This is unavoidable; the more cultivation systems one has, the more overlapping parts there are when adding more systems later on.

The amplification degree will also gradually decrease from the original 90% to 80%, 70%... 50%... 0.5%... But this also means that one's own cultivation becomes increasingly perfect, to the point of having no further room for improvement.

It's like being given a piece of paper to cut a circle; initially, a lot of paper is cut off, but as the circle becomes rounder and rounder, less and less paper can be cut.

And this circle will also become closer and closer to a perfect circle.

However, no matter how perfect something becomes, anything that exists must have flaws.

And as long as there are flaws, it cannot become a truly perfect circle, truly perfect.

Therefore, in terms of systems, merely being incredibly close to this state can be called perfect.

Two hundred systems are closer to perfection than one hundred systems, but two hundred systems might only add one gram of power compared to one hundred systems. (This is just an analogy)

So both can be called perfect, it's just that one is more perfect.

Chen De named this level of perfection the Mortal Realm System Limit, in addition to the Mortal Realm Law Limit.

Anyone who possesses both can be called the Mortal Realm Limit.

Chen De is currently at the Mortal Realm Law Limit, with four systems cultivated to their peak, which should also barely qualify him as the Mortal Realm Limit.

And Wang Teng also cultivates more than one system; if his laws aren't progressing, he can still maximize his strength through multi-system cultivation.

Lower-realm cultivators can still pursue concurrent cultivation, let alone these individuals whose cultivation realms have already reached their peak?

According to Chen De's detection, Wang Teng should have concurrently cultivated thirty-six systems, which is already quite perfect.

However, due to the law factor, he can only be called the Mortal Realm Peak, or a Half-Step Mortal Realm Limit.

Perhaps he is not Chen De's opponent, but Chen De won't find it easy to deal with him either.

If they were in the Earth Immortal Realm, he might be even closer to the Mortal Realm Limit than Chen De, and then it would be Chen De's turn to be beaten soundly.

However, he now has world assimilation technology, so it's not impossible to quickly create a world stronger than the Earth Immortal Realm.

But Chen De thought about it again, and decided that an existing one would be better, and the power he could mobilize from the Earth Immortal Realm in his hands would definitely be stronger than Wang Teng's.

Finally, he decided that he was really going to make a move.

The Ancient Hall had plans to attack the Shenwu Empire; when he first infiltrated, there were still three years left.

Now two and a half years have passed, leaving half a year. He still has to wait, and then take advantage of the opportunity to seize the Earth Immortal Realm in one fell swoop.

Anyway, since he's idle, he might as well create a portable small world to play with and add a few more systems.

Although the amplification isn't significant, even a small fly is still meat.

Chen De's initial idea was a storage ring, placing a small world within the storage ring.

Yes, placing it, not using the ring as a portal to travel between two worlds, and so on.

Because the definition of space itself is both infinitely large and infinitely small.

What he wants to place is a world full of life, a world where living beings truly exist.

If this method is feasible, it could even allow rulers to go outside.

Because their respective worlds would always be worn on their hands... Half a year later.

The imperial capital of the Shenwu Empire.

At this moment, the entire imperial capital was shrouded in a shadow; the streets were empty, and most of the residences were deserted.

The people living there had been sent away early, leaving only those who couldn't or wouldn't leave.

"Dark clouds press on the city, threatening to crush it!"

Ji Hao sat in the imperial palace, awaiting the final moment.

He had no confidence in winning this battle, absolutely no confidence, but he was confident he could severely wound the enemy.

A human wave tactic was useless against the Ancient Hall, only leading to slaughter and pointless sacrifice.

Therefore, he had dispatched the army to other prefectures to defend, especially the three prefectures of the east, west, and north.

Regardless of how they fought, the outcome would depend on the clash of top powerhouses; the incoming enemies were at least at the peak of the Heavenly Imperial Realm.

And below him were all the powerhouses Ji Hao could currently muster to face the Ancient Hall.
