257: The mirror rule and the law of cause and effect are fully understood

Lin Chen felt a surge of emotion.

Now, there were only two things he could do.

One was to cultivate diligently, raise his cultivation as soon as possible, and rescue the trapped Mirror Lin Chen and Aura.

The other was to personally direct his Five Elements Clone to consume bad luck and accumulate more good fortune for unforeseen needs.

Everything would get better.

Lin Chen established profound Karma Dao connections with many Foundation Level human experts, and the speed of his Karma Dao cultivation increased significantly again.

The Karma Divine Power within his body continuously accumulated, transforming into divine body strength, steadily advancing towards Middle God cultivation.

Currently, Lin Chen's greatest obstacle in his cultivation at the God-tier was the strengthening of his divine body.

His divine soul, constantly enhanced by the Myriad Transformation Soul Spirit, had already reached the Middle God level, nearing the Upper God tier.

His divine power, with the unending karma of all things, ensured a continuous supply, and its quality had already reached the Middle God level.

His Dao progress was already nearing the peak of the Main God-tier.

Precisely because of this, the strengthening of his divine body became the greatest impediment slowing down Lin Chen's cultivation growth.

Even to this day, Lin Chen had not obtained any significant opportunities for divine body enhancement; simply using divine power to temper his divine body and increase its strength was still somewhat slow.

At his current cultivation speed, it would take another seventy to eighty years to raise his divine body strength to the Middle God level, and only then could his cultivation also reach the Middle God level.

However, after receiving various resources from the Foundation Level experts, the issue of slow divine body strengthening was no longer a problem.

One-third of the Lin family's treasury resources, along with resources gifted by other Foundation Level experts, contained a large amount of resources suitable for Lin Chen to enhance his divine body strength.

The human Foundation Level experts could all discern Lin Chen's current cultivation bottleneck, so when they sent resources, most of them chose divine body strengthening type resources.

With this batch of specialized resources, Lin Chen would only need a dozen years to break through to Middle God, and subsequently, the time to break through from Middle God to Upper God would only require three to four hundred years.

This was even excluding various fortuitous encounters; if Lin Chen were to obtain more divine body-related opportunities, he might even break through to the Main God-tier within a millennium, becoming eligible to attempt a breakthrough to the Foundation Level.

It was precisely because Lin Chen's cultivation speed was incredibly fast compared to other human prodigies, and he encountered no bottlenecks along the way, that Lin Chen was the future of humanity, the absolute pillar of humanity's future.

During silent secluded cultivation, time always flew by quickly.

In a blink of an eye, Lin Chen reached the age of 80.

The Great Accomplishment Late Bloomer talent once again took effect.

In the enlightenment remnant stele space, Mirror Lin Chen, who had kept himself sealed, continuously improved his comprehension of Mirror Dao, quickly reaching the perfect level, and taking a step towards the Dao Creation level, gaining some insights into Dao Creation.

Unfortunately, Mirror Lin Chen dared not fully open his mind to actively comprehend, only passively receiving insights, otherwise he would easily be drawn in by the enlightenment remnant stele and become a vessel for a Dao Transformation Apostle.

Beings who have fully comprehended a Dao are more susceptible to assimilation by the enlightenment remnant stele; as long as they face the enlightenment remnant stele and immerse themselves in the sea of Dao, they will be 100% Dao transformed.

The enlightenment remnant stele is that ruthless, very unfriendly to beings with high comprehension of Daos.

But this does not prevent the enlightenment remnant stele from being a treasure; once Mirror Lin Chen masters Dao Source Power, he will be able to slightly resist Dao transformation, and the more Dao Source Power he masters, the higher his Dao transformation resistance will be.

Therefore, the enlightenment remnant stele is actually a supreme treasure suitable for the mid-to-late stage cultivation of Foundation Level experts, even stronger than the amplification provided by supreme treasures corresponding to one's own Dao.

However, with the treasure before him, Mirror Lin Chen dared not touch it in the slightest, only acting as a living coordinate, waiting for the opportune moment in the future.

Ancestral Court Great World, the location of Lin Chen's secluded cultivation.

Before his talent took effect, Lin Chen had advanced his Karma Dao comprehension to 91%.

After the talent took effect, his Karma Dao comprehension was directly maximized.

At this point, Lin Chen had completed the Dao cultivation path at the God-tier; next was Dao Creation, further broadening the path of Karma Dao, and condensing Dao Source Power to break through to the Foundation Level.

For most people, Dao Creation is an extremely difficult task; even with paths left behind by predecessors to rely on, many still cannot find the entrance and are unable to step onto the Dao's path.

But for Lin Chen, who possessed the heavenly calculation compass, Dao Creation and stepping onto the Dao's path were rather simple matters.

"To create a Dao, I still need to use the heavenly calculation compass, following the Karma Dao path recorded within the heavenly calculation compass, proceeding until I can proceed no further."

Lin Chen summoned the heavenly calculation compass and immersed his mind within it.

Within the heavenly calculation compass, the Karma Dao manifested in the current world had been entirely illuminated by Lin Chen; this was the Dao that God-tier cultivators needed to master.

Next was to step onto the Dao's path, create the Dao for those who follow, continue to broaden the Dao's path, and further reduce the difficulty of cultivation for later cultivators.

That's right, on the path of Dao Creation, the more Dao Creators there are, the wider this Dao's path becomes, and the difficulty for subsequent Dao Creators to proceed will be significantly reduced.

Until a segment of the Dao's path is developed to a certain level, this segment of the Dao's path will become a manifest Dao, integrating into the Daos that God-tier cultivators need to cultivate, raising the upper limit of Dao strength.

This is also why Daos like Karma, Time, and Space are transcendent Daos; because the Dao strength of these Daos at the God-tier is simply higher than that of other Daos, and cultivators of transcendent Daos are stronger with the same level of Dao comprehension.

Getting back to the main topic, Lin Chen was about to cheat.

The function of a Dao-level supreme treasure, which can enable one to become a human Foundation Level expert, is not merely because it is a Dao supreme treasure, but also because each Dao-level supreme treasure is imprinted with a record of the corresponding Dao's path, which can assist later cultivators in more easily stepping onto the Dao's path.

For example, the fire hell ring mastered by Fire Lord; not only can Fire Lord himself use it, but future human Fire-attribute Main Gods can also borrow it, using the fire hell ring to more easily cross the chasm of Dao and step onto the Fire Dao path.

Only by stepping onto the Fire Dao path does one qualify to condense Dao Source Power, thus possessing the ticket to break through to the Foundation Level.

This is why Dao-level supreme treasures are coveted by the Foundation Level experts of super-large clans; one Dao-level supreme treasure represents at least one Foundation Level expert, and if there are enough prodigies within the clan, there will only be more Foundation Level experts of the same Dao.

Of course, Dao-level supreme treasures can only play an auxiliary role; more importantly, cultivators must rely on themselves to create the Dao, and during this process, the supreme treasure can only play a minor role.

The heavenly calculation compass that Lin Chen possessed naturally also had this function; everything was calculated and arranged, and the heavenly calculation compass's recognition of him as its master was for this very moment.

Following the connection between the Karma Dao and its corresponding Dao path recorded in the heavenly calculation compass, Lin Chen directly anchored to the Karma Dao path, successfully stepping onto it, and becoming qualified to take the first step, condensing pure Dao Source Power.

During the process of creating the Dao by stepping onto the Karma Dao path, every bit of Dao Lin Chen comprehended would transform into a Dao substantively controlled by the heavenly calculation compass, making the heavenly calculation compass stronger.

As Lin Chen grew stronger, the heavenly calculation compass also grew stronger.

If Lin Chen could, on his existing foundation, open up a new Karma Dao, the heavenly calculation compass might be able to become a transcendent supreme treasure, reaching the level of the Tower of Nothingness.

Of course, this possibility is still relatively low; many Foundation Level experts in This Universe are still walking on existing Dao paths, unable to open up new Daos they cultivate, at most creating some minor Daos at the Lower God level to complete the universe's Dao operation system.

Therefore, Lin Chen stood firm, not aiming too high.

First, he would advance on the Karma Dao path, accumulate his foundation, and then plan for future transcendence.

One must eat bite by bite, and walk step by step.
