Chapter 492 The Ocean of Consciousness, the Root of All Beings: Alaya Consciousness!

"The 'eighth sense' of the microcosm..."

Wang Li closed her eyes, trying to reach that legendary realm.

The eighth sense, Alaya consciousness, is the ultimate state that transcends the cycle of birth and death and is free from the limitations imposed on one's own will by all time and space.

Similarly, in the Saint Seiya multiverse, the "eighth sense" itself is the ultimate mystery that distinguishes whether you are a well-known elite or an unknown figure who perishes in one magnificent holy war after another.

Please don't think that what Wang said was anything discouraging.

Don't think that the "eighth sense" is anything special.

Just look at the countless ancient beings in the Saint Seiya multiverse who have awakened the "Will of the Gods" and reached the Tenth Sense or higher, and you'll know just how dangerous this multiverse truly is.

Just look at the "holy war" that started as early as the time of God's reign, and you'll understand.

Athena trains a new generation of Saints every hundred years, and each generation of twelve Gold Saints has the seventh sense. But with the accumulation of generations of Saints to the present day, how many have truly stepped into the "eighth sense"?

It's estimated that there aren't as many Eighth Sense Saints existing in the Saint Seiya universe as there are sealed in Hades' icy hell!

In the end, only a handful of characters will leave their mark on the Saint Seiya multiverse.

For Wang Li, the "eighth sense" of the microcosm system is even more indescribable.

After all, the Saint Seiya's Cosmo "Eighth Sense" is essentially a self-contained "Alaya Consciousness," a unique self that roams between life and death.

It can free its will from all constraints of time and space, and it is no longer affected by any external factors. It can even forcibly descend into other dimensional universes with its will alone. It can truly be described as unrestrained and lawless!
Perhaps for those Saints bound in the Saint Seiya multiverse, even reaching the Eighth Sense is just a little more breathing room on the battlefield of gods, but for Wang, it is a qualitative leap!
It can be said that once Wang achieves the Eighth Sense, the various constraints imposed on him by the "system" will be reduced to the limit. Wang Li will no longer need to rely on the system's guidance and can step into the Void Sea on his own, freely exploring one instance world after another!

Before this, Wang Li possessed a powerful "Seventh Sense" microcosm, and even expanded it into an Omega-level multi-dimensional microcosm cluster. In the blink of an eye, she could form more than a dozen microcosms with completely different worldviews, which could be used to annihilate her opponents.

However, Wang Li was never able to truly reach the threshold of this realm. That invisible barrier, like an insurmountable chasm, stood in his way of cultivation, making him feel like he was seeing things through a fog and that all his efforts were in vain.

But now, with the breakthrough in the Human Immortal Martial Arts, and with the perfect fusion of his physical body and will, he feels that the barrier is becoming thinner.

At this moment, Wang Li's consciousness began to transcend the constraints of the microcosm and extend towards a deeper dimension.

It's a wonderful feeling, like a fish leaping out of the water for the first time to see the sky, or a bird breaking through the clouds for the first time to touch the stars.

He saw the river of time, a long river shimmering with billions of points of light, each point of light a possible future, each ripple a piece of the past that has passed.

He saw countless branches of parallel worlds in the desolate void sea, like branches growing from a tree. Each world had a unique trajectory, yet they all shared the same origin.

He witnessed the cycle of life and rebirth, with souls migrating between life and death like migratory birds, carrying memories of past lives and hopes for the next.

His consciousness was no longer confined to this body and this space-time, but began to connect with the consciousness of the entire universe.

This is the Alaya-vijnana—the collective unconscious of the universe, the root of all life consciousness.

Here, there is no boundary between life and death, no barrier of time and space, only an eternal sea of ​​consciousness.

This vast ocean contains the memories and emotions of all life since the birth of the universe. Wang Li's consciousness roams in this boundless sea of ​​consciousness, experiencing the joys and sorrows of countless lives, and witnessing the birth and destruction of the universe.

He witnessed the birth of stars, those enormous nebulae slowly condensing under the influence of gravity, eventually igniting the flames of nuclear fusion and illuminating the dark void;
We have witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations, how races went from ignorance to glory, and finally returned to silence;

We witnessed the legends of countless heroes, those figures who left their mark on the long river of history, whose courage and wisdom still resonate in time and space.
I also saw the little things in ordinary life, those seemingly insignificant joys and sorrows, which are the most basic units that constitute the consciousness of the universe.

In this state of mind, he gained a completely new understanding of himself, life, and the universe.

“I see…” Wang Li murmured to herself, “The eighth sense is not an increase in power, but a leap in self-awareness. It’s not about understanding life and death, but about transcending the essence of life and death.”

Wang Li realized that she had been so focused on accumulating power that she had neglected other things.

He sensed a subtle change occurring within his own inner universe.

It is no longer simply a destructive energy, but has also acquired a creative characteristic.

Within the golden cosmic light, a faint silver glow began to emerge—the color of life and creation.

His microcosm began to resonate more deeply with the human-immortal universe within his body, with the two promoting each other and evolving together.

Each acupoint resonates with the microcosm, as if playing a symphony of the birth of the universe.

This change elevated his strength to another level.

Now, he not only possesses the power to destroy stars, but also the ability to create life.

He can nurture life and evolve civilizations within his own acupoint universe, and even guide these life forms to higher levels.

The feeling was amazing, like creating countless worlds within my body and becoming the creator of these worlds.

Wang Li vaguely understood why Teacher Zhao had emphasized the need for a balance between the body, mind, and will.

Only when the three are in perfect harmony can one truly grasp the truth of the universe.

The body is the boat, carrying consciousness as it navigates the material world; the mind is the rudder, guiding the direction forward; only willpower is the driving force, the primal force that provides the impetus for progress!
Only through the coordination and unity of these three elements can one traverse the vast sea of ​​suffering and reach the other shore!
"I never imagined that even though I've reached this level, I would still gain so much from Teacher Zhao's lecture back then. It's unbelievable!"

After an unknown amount of time, Wang Li regained consciousness.

He slowly opened his eyes, his pupils gleaming with the light of a microcosm.

Although he hasn't fully broken through to the eighth sense, he has already touched the threshold and seen the direction to move forward.

That once insurmountable threshold is now clearly visible.

"I wonder how things are going with Teacher Zhao's family. If he comes back to school, I must thank him in person."
