The Great Overlord: Simulating the Future, Dominating Speedrunning

Chapter 20: Small Bodhi Pill, sudden enlightenment and breakthrough!
Soon after,

Lu Chen walked out of the Sutra Library, carrying the minor magic Dragon Flame Wings and the major magic Daluo Tianyan Sword, and left contentedly.

The door of the Sutra Library slowly closed, and the figure of the Sleeping Emperor disappeared without a trace.

……

In the next few days, Lu Chen intensified his retreat in Jiuyou Palace. The purpose of his retreat was naturally to study the two major and minor magic arts.

After several days of study, he was able to master the great magic Daluo Tianyan Sword very easily.

Instead, it was the small magical spell Dragon Flame Wings that gave Lu Chen a headache.

After several days of study, Lu Chen gradually felt the mystery of this body movement magic, and also understood why the body movement magic was so rare.

Because after reaching the fifth-grade supreme, the supreme strongman will master the power of space and be able to travel through space naturally. If one dares to call it body skills among many magic arts, then this volume of magic arts must involve the profound power of space.

Therefore, it is better to say that the body movement magic is a space magic rather than a body movement magic.

Whether in terms of preciousness or difficulty of comprehension, it is one of the best among many divine arts.

Although the specific value of this small body movement magic is unknown, according to Lu Chen's speculation, it is very likely not lower than the ordinary big magic.

Of course, such a precious divine art naturally also brings about high difficulty in training. The difficulty of training this roll of dragon flame wings is so great that even a person with such talent as Lu Chen is astonished.

After several days, Lu Chen was only able to scratch the surface and was still a long way from getting started.

Outside the Jiuyou Palace,

On top of a mountain that towers into the clouds.

Lu Chen quickly formed seals with his hands, and purple flames burst out from his body, quickly gathering behind him to form a pair of gorgeous purple fire wings.

Then, Lu Chen raised his palms slightly, and then slapped them down heavily. A strong invisible energy surged out. Suddenly, the flaming wings behind him flapped violently, and complex patterns flashed on the surface. A dazzling purple light burst out, and the surrounding space was distorted.

Suddenly, Lu Chen's back trembled, and the purple fire wings flapped a few times like lightning, making a sharp sizzling sound, and instantly collapsed into wisps of purple flames and drifted away.

"Still not working?"

Lu Chen rubbed his temples, looked at the immortal fire floating in the air, and said with a frown.

"There's nothing I can do. Dragon Flame Wings involves the power of space. It's simply unrealistic to comprehend it in such a short time. I can only take drugs."

As he spoke, Lu Chen took out a rosewood box from the mustard bracelet with some pain in his heart. When he opened the box, a strange fragrance immediately filled the air.

Inside the wooden box, there was a pill the size of a longan. It was golden in color, with strands of golden air flowing inside.

Looking closely, the golden airflow actually gathered into a small golden tree. As the tree swayed gently, a faint elixir fragrance slowly spread out. Lu Chen just smelled it, and his soul couldn't help but feel a coolness.

"This little Bodhi Pill cost me five thousand Supreme Spiritual Liquids. If this doesn't work, I have no other options."

Lu Chen sighed and said helplessly.

The Little Bodhi Pill was produced in the Endless Fire Region, one of the super powers in the universe. It was listed as one of the three major alchemy holy places in the universe, along with the Ancient Ten Thousand Grasslands and the Dan God Clan.

It is rumored that the Bodhi tree is a sacred object passed down from generation to generation in the Endless Fire Realm. It can help people achieve sudden enlightenment and have a revelation. Just by sitting under the Bodhi tree, one can experience a hundred reincarnations and become a saint instantly.

While the small Bodhi pills refined from its branches and leaves weren't as mysterious as the Bodhi tree, they also had the effect of helping people achieve enlightenment. With memories of his past life, Lu Chen naturally knew the rumor was true. In the lower planes, the Flame Emperor of the Endless Fire Realm relied on the Bodhi tree's ability to achieve enlightenment, surviving hundreds of reincarnations and directly breaking through to the Dou Sheng realm.

"It's just too expensive. Five thousand Supreme Spirit Liquids is equivalent to five years' salary for a commander-level expert. Alchemy really is profitable..."

Lu Chen suppressed the heartache and stuffed the small Bodhi Pill into his mouth. The golden pill melted in his mouth and instantly turned into a warm current flowing into Lu Chen's body.

In an instant, Lu Chen's spirit was shocked, and his brain felt cool. Everything he had learned in the past appeared in his mind one by one, instantly turning into characters and being easily digested by him.

Lu Chen sat cross-legged on the ground, not daring to delay, and immediately began to comprehend the spatial magic Dragon Flame Wings.

While Lu Chen was comprehending, he saw the shadow of an ancient tree thousands of feet tall suddenly appear behind him, standing high in the sky and swaying gently. A clear air rippled over the ancient tree and scattered on Lu Chen.

Lu Chen seemed to have an epiphany flowing through his heart like a spring. All the difficulties he had encountered in comprehending the Dragon Flame Wings were instantly resolved one by one, and he strode forward with great strides.

……

In the boring training, about an incense stick of time passed slowly.

The shadow of the ancient Bodhi tree behind Lu Chen became more and more blurred, until a certain moment, the ancient Bodhi tree suddenly trembled slightly, and the light and shadow of thousands of feet instantly turned into a clear light and dissipated.

The figure sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain finally trembled slightly, and then the eyes that had been closed for a long time slowly opened.

As the figure slowly opened his eyes, the surrounding space suddenly began to experience strange fluctuations...

A purple light flashed in Lu Chen's dark eyes, and a few unclear characters came out of his mouth, which contained infinite mysteries.

Swish!
In an instant, a pair of gorgeous purple wings spread out behind it. As the wings flapped, the surrounding space fluctuated, and a ball of purple light burst out with dazzling light.

Lu Chen's figure disappeared instantly.

The next moment, the space where he was originally located twisted, and Lu Chen reappeared at the same place.

This scene is so similar to the way the Sleeping Emperor suddenly appeared in the Sutra Library!

Space travel! The signature method of a fifth-grade supreme powerhouse!
Lu Chen stood on the top of the mountain, with a strong purple light bursting out of his eyes. The purple flame wings behind him flapped continuously, and his figure kept disappearing and reappearing in the surrounding space.

The purple light flashed faster and faster, and there seemed to be faint human figures emerging in the sky. It looked like human figures in various forms were running around.

These figures seemed to be alive, the space was slightly rippling, and countless figures suddenly broke through the constraints of space and rushed straight into the distant sky.

The speed of the phantom figures was terrifyingly fast, as if they ignored the distance in space. In just a few breaths, they were scattered all over the mountain top, densely packed. From a distance, it looked like a purple ocean.

Finally, countless illusory figures merged into one, and in a flash of light, they transformed into a young man in a green shirt. Who else could it be but Lu Chen?
Space magic, introduction to Dragon Flame Wings!

"I finally succeeded. Now, even if I encounter a fifth-grade supreme being, I have a way to save my life."

"After all, a fifth-grade supreme being has only just begun to dabble in the power of space, and his speed of traveling through space isn't necessarily much faster than mine now."

Lu Chen said with a happy face.
