Chapter 1182 Numbers are King

As an individual.

The overall strength of a group is essentially composed of a variety of factors.

Factors such as speed, strength, defense, skill, recovery ability, reaction ability, and even luck can all be considered an indispensable part of actual strength; lacking any one of them may lead to complete defeat.

Just as the shortest stave is often the factor that determines how much water a wooden bucket can hold.

But, having said that.

Even though everyone knows that there are many factors that determine overall strength, and it cannot be explained in just a few words.

but……

When asked about the most important part, people often unanimously say "strength" or "speed".

reason?

very simple.

Because strength and speed are always the most intuitive and direct external manifestations of power, emphasizing simplicity and brute force.

Faced with absolute power and speed, no matter how much one may disagree, it's difficult for anyone to refute it...

After all, it was like an insurmountable chasm; just seeing it would instill fear and despair in people.

That's a gap and chasm that's visible to the naked eye.

In Ling Wuyuan's view, his "Infinite Speed" can be considered a manifestation of the concept of "speed".

That was a near-perfect mechanism and set of numbers.

Although it doesn't have any overly fancy features, every effect is extremely practical, and even the actual power consumption is not high.

Therefore, even now, with the [Heavenly Torrent] and [Comprehension of All Things], and seemingly no longer relying much on [Infinite Speed] in battle, he has never given up on further researching [Infinite Speed]!

In fact, in his view, his true trump card in combat was only [Uninterrupted Speed] from beginning to end. All other abilities were just icing on the cake. Even [Death Omen], a combat ability that he created specifically, was far less important to him than [Uninterrupted Speed].

That's a fairly obvious difference...

Today.

As the first ability to awaken, and one that has been consistently honed and strengthened over the years, undergoing transformation after transformation, and deeply embodying the principles of numerical values, [Uninterrupted Speed] naturally entered a phase of dramatic numerical expansion.

It was forcibly transformed from an initial acceleration of several times to an acceleration of hundreds of millions of times...

It emphasizes simplicity and unpretentiousness, and deliberately adds a lot of zeros to the last digit.

With this level of blessing.

Let alone cultivators.

Even those with severe rheumatism, elderly people who walk with trembling legs, could easily run faster than the speed of light in Ling Wuyuan's previous life's world, which was Earth, and chase the universe with their physical bodies...

And that's the charm of numbers. There are no unnecessary operations; you can solve problems simply by overwhelming the opponent—a basic attack does the trick.

of course.

Due to the reaction force, even Ling Wuyuan now has to make preparations in advance, including but not limited to distorting the rules, in order to achieve high-speed, all-around acceleration of movement capabilities without killing himself on the spot.

If not.

Even if it is turned into ash, it is difficult to withstand that level of powerful backlash.

Compared to abilities like accelerated thinking, although the backlash is also significant, it's ultimately insignificant compared to the acceleration of all-around movement abilities. At least it won't cause Ling Wuyuan to explode instantly and completely disintegrate on the spot. At most, it can only cause some damage to his body that can be quickly repaired by turning into ash mist...

In short.

At this moment, the numerically dominant [Infinite Speed] allows Wu Yuan to forcibly accelerate his thinking speed to an extremely terrifying degree with only a very small cost.

This ability not only allows him to spend years silently devising various attack plans during intense battles, but also causes his learning efficiency to rise to an astonishing level.

Faced with that level of thinking speed, most problems that can be solved with time are nothing at all; often, they can be solved with just a few more seconds of thought.

This directly resulted in the fact that although his strength was increasing at an extremely rapid pace, faster than ordinary people could imagine, the amount of knowledge he had accumulated in his mind was growing even faster than his basic stats. In a way, he had reached another level in related areas through sheer accumulation. Furthermore, the knowledge of various civilizations and sects was like a special program that was constantly running in his mind, constantly piecing together, constantly refining, constantly transforming, constantly extending, and constantly deriving, thereby driving his accumulation in other areas to progress at an extremely fast speed.

Sparks of knowledge and wisdom were constantly and intensely colliding within his mind...

Every moment, countless new pieces of knowledge and insights are born in his mind...

For example, the abilities of "Knowledge of All Things" and "Death Omens" are extremely dependent on knowledge reserves. Driven by a vast amount of knowledge, they underwent dozens of transformations of varying degrees in a short period of time.

Said without politeness.

Even including those individuals recorded in Ji Yinghan's inherited information, Ling Wuyuan felt that he was now undoubtedly a unique and powerful figure within the [Heavenly Realm] level.

once.

Considering that the place where he left his legacy was merely a remote little town, Ji Yinghan, wanting to ensure that future generations would have a sense of proportion and not become arrogant frogs in a well, rapidly expanding their egos upon receiving opportunities, decisively recorded the outstanding individuals he knew of in each realm. His intention was to use this method to help future generations understand the approximate strength of the most powerful individuals in the [Celestial Realm], [Eternal Realm], and [Undying Realm], thereby helping them understand their own niche…

no doubt.

He was definitely thinking of discouraging those who came after him.

However, after repeated comparisons...

The battle scenes depicted against those who were said to be among the strongest in the [Celestial Realm]...

The only assessment Ling Wuyuan could give was that it was nothing special.

Even those who are said to have been born from special forces or special races and possess various extremely powerful inheritances are no exception.

Even without using [Instantaneous Speed] and other abilities, and even suppressing all of his physical attributes to the same level, Wu Yuan was still able to make the same judgment very clearly... that is, he didn't need a second move to kill those guys.
