Chapter 122 Enlightenment: The Root Truth of Everything

Wow!
When the black curtain was completely pulled back, a brand new elemental diagram was suddenly revealed.

Within the scene, nebulae coalesce into a cluster, and a brand new planet begins to sprout and be born.

If viewed solely from a normal, naked-eye perspective, that's where it ends.

However, when he used his mental perception, the images on the entire board unfolded in his consciousness: inside the newborn planet, boiling molten rock flowed, and metals and heavy elements began to sink to form a molten core.

The dye used for painting is made from mysterious minerals and the essence of spirit beasts.

Beneath the outlined lines lie intricate and interwoven patterns, resembling the meridians of the human body or the spiritual veins of heaven and earth.

"You will understand the basics of the Sun Viewing Diagram, which involves going through the three diagrams of sunrise, midday, and sunset."

"Now, to comprehend the new elemental diagram, you need to go through the changes of ten diagrams, participate in the entire cycle of planetary birth, and also witness the evolution of the birth of the main elements."

"Of course, don't be intimidated by this. Elemental rulers are destined to have extraordinary elemental affinity. As long as you are patient, they won't pose too much of an obstacle to you."

Hong Xinghuo said this.

It is not too late.

Having already taken care of his basic needs before arriving, Su Chen readily accepted the challenge.

"Sit here."

Hong Yan laid a soft and comfortable cushion in front of the meditation picture.

Seeing that Su Chen took out a Spirit Source Crystal to help her restore her spiritual power, the Spirit Secret Crystal she had prepared in advance was naturally of no use.

soon.

With the three witnesses present, Su Chen sat cross-legged on the cushion, his straight back revealing his powerful and well-proportioned physique, and his well-defined muscle lines were also visible under his shirt.

"Does it really need for you to have such a perfect physique if you're playing a magic-based character?" Hong Qi sighed inwardly.

Soon.

With his keen sense of elements, a sharp golden light emanated from Su Chen's body.

He has already begun to comprehend the meaning of the Golden Diagram.

Generally speaking.

Card players who don't have much affinity for the gold element will definitely find it incredibly difficult to comprehend it.

Its difficulty level is closely related to the affinity between the relevant elements.

"The Elemental Master, with the strongest elemental card master talent, shouldn't need any assistance or help, right?" Hong Yan sighed inwardly.

Perhaps in response to her expectations, after about seven minutes, the siblings exchanged bewildered glances and the other person successfully completed the copy of the gold painting.

"Wait a minute," Hong Qi muttered under his breath, something he wanted to say, the speed of which was unbelievably fast.

Only under his father's stern gaze did he shut up, so as not to disturb others' contemplation.

This kid is no ordinary person; the legendary card master Hong Xinghuo, with his proficient level of mental control, had naturally noticed this.

at the same time.

From Su Chen's perspective, the scene of the planet's core formation changed dramatically, replaced by a picture of the lithosphere taking shape, the crust cooling and solidifying, continental plates beginning to appear, and mountains rising and falling on the surface.

This is what is known as the Earth Diagram.

The lines available for tracing are presented as clearly as fire lines, while Su Chenrou's spirit brush, as soft as spider silk, begins to sketch rapidly.

During this time, there was no hindrance or pause whatsoever, fully demonstrating the terrifying depth of his mental control.

This time, the situation was even better; in less than six minutes, the view from the camera's perspective transformed once again.

The third image is a volcanic eruption image, also known as the Fire Image.

With the release of energy from deep within the Earth's crust, scorching magma erupted, volcanic ash filled the sky, and the entire planet seemed to have been transformed into a fiery inferno.

The boundless, powerful fluctuations of fire element almost covered and permeated the entire area, and the red dye obscured many of the outlines.

However, relying on his unparalleled affability, Su Chen felt as if a torch was guiding him forward in the darkness, and he moved forward smoothly all the way.

A few minutes later, the fire diagram was completed.

As Hong Xinghuo stated frankly, the entire elemental diagram is undoubtedly a history of the evolution and succession of planets.

Volcanic activity releases large amounts of water vapor and other gases, laying the foundation for the formation of the ocean (water) and the atmosphere (wind).

Once a map showing the formation of the atmosphere with rapidly surging air currents and swirling clouds was completed, Su Chen's process was already more than halfway complete.

"It's only been 36 minutes."

Hong Qi felt that his worldview had been severely impacted. You see, he was a talent for elemental mastery and had a certain affinity for all elements, but it still took him a lot of effort to comprehend this new elemental diagram. It was only with his father's help that he was able to successfully grasp the basics.

Hong Yan had overthought things and had already realized that Su Chen's mental control was somewhat beyond her expectations.

"So it won't pose any obstacle at all throughout the whole process."

now.

The seated figure was already surrounded by a wisp of lightning.

The sixth image, the Thunder Image, shows the atmospheric charge being released wildly, accompanied by thunder and lightning, torrential rain, and the planet's sky being completely dyed purple.

The seventh image, the Ice Image, depicts a further deterioration of the climate. Thick clouds block out the sunlight, plunging the planet into a prolonged period of cold and darkness. The oceans are completely frozen, and the entire world is plunged into an ice age.

The eighth image, the image of wood, depicts a time when the climate is completely stable, all things grow, plants multiply in abundance, and the world is full of vitality.

The ninth and tenth images depict the alternation of day and night, and the rising and setting of the sun and moon.

The coordinated and unified light and darkness have completely stabilized the planet's biological rhythms and ecological balance.

After 1 hour and 16 minutes, Su Chen completed his comprehension of the new elemental diagram.

All I can say is that it truly lives up to its name as the Primordial Elemental Law.

The entire process of comprehending the basics allowed him to witness how a planet develops and grows from a state of utter chaos, eventually transforming into a more orderly system.

same.

After Su Chen successfully entered the path, his spiritual world trembled, and a strange phenomenon appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness.

The sun-viewing picture shows a golden red wheel, like a star.

at the moment.

The spiritual phenomena presented by the elemental diagram did not change much, except that the ten-colored clouds floating above the sea of ​​consciousness became more diffuse and thicker.

Each person's consciousness space transcends the material realm. Just like the surface of the sea of ​​consciousness reflects some scattered memories, those who are immersed in it can even revisit past memories.

These ten-colored clouds are also highly related to their elemental properties.

At least from this moment on, the already impressive elemental affinity and resistance have clearly increased further.

"congratulations."

After Su Chen finished his mental introspection, many voices of good news rang out from the side.

"Your speed is simply amazing."

After suppressing his emotions for more than an hour, Hong Qi finally couldn't hold back any longer: "Among our younger generation, the fastest takes 3 hours, and most others have gone through two or three attempts before they can successfully grasp the basics."

"Let's try out the elemental control effect first," Hong Xinghuo abruptly interrupted his son.

"it is good."

Su Chen nodded.

With a stroke of inspiration, Su Chen's first attempt at activating elemental magic went very smoothly.

click!
A thunderous flash erupted from his palm and spread outwards, the lightning snake rapidly extending to a length of over ten meters.

The surrounding light was instantly transformed into a fiery purple glow.

If it weren't for the limitations of the space, Su Chen felt he could have increased his power even further. The next moment...

He closed his right hand, withdrawing all the electric arcs.

"Let's light a fire."

Su Chen's fist emitted a red light from the inside out, and soon, a flame spread across the entire fist.

Flame Fist!

Clearly, the simple high-temperature flame could no longer harm his skin.

"Don't do it for too long, otherwise your skin will get very dry," Hong Yan shared her experience.

Su Chen began to repeatedly try releasing other elements.

Under the control of the gold element, a sharp, substantial golden light seemed to transform into a blade in his hand.

With a slight wave of his hand, a faint golden streak appeared in the air, lingering for a long time.

Followed by.

Su Chen raised his hands out to the sides, and the water molecules around him seemed to be summoned by an invisible force, gathering together in a joyful frenzy, creating a light mist in the air.

He stopped because of the space and because he didn't want to wet the carpet.

As for the manipulation of wind elements, it was even more agile. Su Chen mastered the flow of air around him without any instruction, as if a single thought could stir up a gust of wind.

The same applies to the element of light; it can easily transform into a lighting technician, freely manipulating the light throughout the VIP room, making it bright or dim, concentrated or scattered.

Two minutes later.

Su Chen's excitement subsided a bit, and he couldn't leave the others to play by themselves.

"The elemental control trait simply makes it easier for you to control the elemental fluctuations in yourself and the outside world. Theoretically, none of the effects you just released count as a skill."

"certainly."

"Judging from your effortless performance, your destructive power should be more than enough to deal with one-star monsters. As long as you continue to train, the efficiency of summoning elements and the power of your damage will be greatly improved."

Hong Xinghuo explained.

Currently, this elemental master not only comprehends things quickly, but also demonstrates better initial effects than others.

"Understood," Su Chen replied earnestly.

"Alright, that's all over. I'm ready to leave now."

Hong Xinghuo clearly didn't want to stay any longer. He looked at Su Chen and said, "Is there anything else you need me to clarify?"

Su Chen hesitated for a moment, glancing around, unable to suppress the urgency in his heart.

Hong Xinghuo noticed the boy's hesitant expression and immediately gestured for his child to leave the VIP room.

"Go ahead."

After the door closed again, the legendary card player looked at the other person.

"Excuse me for asking, but is it true that Dr. Yan Zhiluo herself disappeared in an extraterrestrial dimension?" Su Chen didn't beat around the bush and asked decisively.

Hong Chuanqi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he asked without hesitation, "Why are you asking this?"

"My parents were unable to return from the Nine Netherworld more than three years ago and are now classified as missing." Su Chen spoke sincerely without any hesitation.

The other party remained silent for a few seconds.

After looking at Su Chen for a while, the mature and steady middle-aged man finally spoke: "The data model of the Dimensional Observation Bureau has started to malfunction occasionally in recent years. Currently, the Alliance Council prohibits the information from being leaked. My cousin has indeed gone missing in the outer realm."

Hear the words.

Su Chen's expression changed for the first time, and a surge of anger welled up inside him, making him quite agitated.

really
What potential separatist tendencies?

What do you mean by abandoning one's family?

All unfounded accusations are false.

His parents couldn't come back because they were badly misled by the data from the observatory.

The authorities were fully aware of this, but chose to turn a blind eye.

This is not a family matter.

Over the years, to his knowledge, at least tens of thousands of families have been persecuted and separated as a result.

"Has no one reported this from above?" Su Chen tried his best to suppress his anger and calm his tone.

Hong Xinghuo laughed self-deprecatingly: "You want the cabinet to announce that the magical power of planar measurement has begun to fail. Do you know what that means? The economy and order of the entire Tianyu Main Plane will collapse all at once. The GDP of Xiadu alone depends on the economy outside the region by 36%. In the panic, how many people will lose their jobs?"

"Besides."

"According to them, the dimensional scientists have been calculating for three years but still haven't found any data errors. They also can't understand why the grand model that has lasted for five hundred years has failed today."

"Mathematics and physics do not fail without reason."

"Science is objective truth, and it will not disappear."

"Therefore, scholars of the Celestial School have come to a conclusion."

"X!"

X!

In mathematics, this is what we call an unknown.

These astronomical scholars attributed all the chaos to an unknown external factor, 'X'.

As for what exactly it is—whether it's a powerful, mysterious force, an omnipotent creator in religion, or the machinations of an intelligent civilization—it's all up to your imagination.

Anyway, no matter how much nonsense we talk about, the theory of dimensional measurement is not wrong. It's all because of an unknown external factor 'X' causing all this trouble.

After this explanation, Su Chen also fell silent.

"So the military has already given its answer to 'X'." Su Chen was not unaware of the major movements within the military in recent months.

Following the resignation of the overall commander of Blue Star's defense (global defense minister), many generals also submitted their resignations, and the dramatic personnel changes at the top of the military have attracted attention from all sectors of society.

No matter how you look at it, this is inevitably linked to 'X'.

"They firmly believe it was an external invasion, an invisible war that had already been launched by the enemy."

Hong Xinghuo sneered: "However, the First Consul believes that they are trying to hijack the parliament to extort money from the war. It is certain that many soldiers who are dissatisfied with the status quo have indeed been longing for a war for too long."

At this moment, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely solemn.

An invisible war.

An unseen enemy.

Su Chen didn't know how to respond.

This topic is too far removed from the powerful social stratum he belongs to.

"Alright, let's leave it at that."

Hong Xinghuo said, "Your talent and aptitude are quite good, and you should be able to reach the level of a legendary card master. That's why I'm willing to reveal so much information to you. As for what I just said, be careful not to spread it around."

"Understood." Su Chen naturally understood the importance of this news.

"Okay, I hope you can give us even more amazing performances next time we meet."

Hong Xinghuo collected the new version of the elemental diagram with a space-type card. He paused briefly before leaving, leaving behind a final sentence before departing from the VIP room.

Writing this chapter was a bit mentally taxing, so only one update today. I'll try harder tomorrow.
