You promised yourself to be a caged bird, but you became the supreme young master?

Lu Heng closed his eyes and sensed that, with a clear purpose, he could clearly feel the existence in the world that was connected to him.

It seemed to exist only in him, yet it seemed to be everywhere.

It can shine and demonstrate its existence.

It can conceal its light and completely sink into nothingness.

Dragons can be large or small, can rise or hide; when large, they stir up clouds and mist, when small, they conceal their form.

When it rises, it soars through the universe; when it hides, it lies dormant within the waves.

Lu Heng immediately thought of this sentence from his previous life.

At the same time, I thought of the notes on the panel log.

A person dies when they are killed.

Without a doubt, even being the chosen one does not mean one can do whatever one wants.

Even when faced with a crisis beyond one's control, death will still come.

Lu Heng could also clearly sense that destiny was merely an enhancement of possibilities, and did not change his own strength or talent.

The second note.

The fact that destiny could be taken away made him instantly shudder!

Fate isn't a bone, yet it can be taken away.

Lu Heng then felt relieved. After all, in this world, destiny can be materialized, so it doesn't seem strange that it was taken away.

For a chosen one without any background, the ability to conceal one's destiny is naturally essential.

Lu Heng breathed a sigh of relief at this. If the chosen one of destiny didn't have this ability, he would rather not have this destiny.

The reason was nothing more than a certain ominous premonition he had when he was about to awaken his destiny as the chosen one.

And putting aside everything else, although it is almost impossible for the Lu family to have a powerful figure who can see people's fate, it is not necessarily the case when the scope is expanded to the Great Qi Dynasty.

Once it attracts the attention of a powerful figure of that level, and that person harbors ill intentions...

Lu Heng had no ability to resist.

………………

"It seems that the destiny of a chosen one is likely related to innate evolution..."

Lu Heng made up his mind.

He then looked at his two and a half awakened talents.

As expected, his first life leap did not allow him to advance his life level, and his cultivation realm was only at the first level, yet he mastered the third-level innate divine ability ahead of time.

The difference between the two major grades is far too great!

It's not something that can be overcome with just one level of evolutionary accumulation.

Even a panel cannot violate the law of conservation of matter.

What's the use of these two semi-awakened talents?!

Lu Heng only knew that the outer courtyard had awakened the Azure Eyes, which meant that the young master of the main family had half-awakened his family bloodline talent. Regardless of his original cultivation talent, he was at least equivalent to a true cultivation genius!

Of course, this is also because the young masters of these families often have above-average talent in cultivation.

Or rather, only young members of the main family with above-average cultivation talent are qualified to be recognized.

Lu Heng closed his eyes again and began to feel his talent.

After a long while, he opened his eyes and shook his head.

The only effect of the semi-awakened [Void Bloodline], besides turning his pupils blue, is that it allows him to enter an extremely tranquil state.

Aside from the implicit help it provides for one's cultivation talent, it's better than nothing.

As for the [Innate Body], it is a semi-awakened talent that appeared after the first life leap.

They gained nothing.

If it weren't for the panel, Lu Heng wouldn't even have been able to confirm that he actually possessed this talent.

However, both talents are displayed as semi-awakened on the panel, so it's impossible that there are no changes.

Therefore, Lu Heng chose to sense his own cultivation progress.

The minor-level "Basic Body Refining Method" allowed him to perceive his own body down to the millimeter.

This time, however, the sensation was much smoother than before.

Did the mild erysipelas disappear?

Lu Heng, sensing something, seemed to be deep in thought.

Then, very quickly, his eyes widened.

There's no particular reason.

His practice seemed to be no different from before.

But in fact…

Five times, that's right, five times!

His current cultivation efficiency is five times higher than before his first life leap!

Lu Heng was able to gain two points of proficiency during his previous training session.

Now, Lu Heng can gain a full 10 points of proficiency in a single training session.

You can gain 100 proficiency points a day, and it only takes 26 days to upgrade the "Basic Body Refining Method" from the minor level to the major level.

His cultivation talent, thanks to the ability to ignore bottlenecks on his character panel, was already comparable to that of a top genius.

So what about now? After the first life leap…

A legendary prodigy, one in a thousand!

A cultivation talent at the level of a prodigy?!

Lu Heng neither knew nor cared.

He has a very strange feeling right now.

If his previous cultivation involved drawing upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to refine his own blood and qi, it was similar to actively and painstakingly pursuing a girl.

But now it's exactly the opposite...

Without any prompting, the girl took the initiative to lift her skirt.

A more vivid analogy, the one Lu Heng could think of, was…

In a game from a past life, there were bloodline sorcerers who relied on charm to cast spells, and magicians who relied on intelligence to cast spells.

He had been wondering why, as long as a cultivator had enough talent, even if their comprehension was average, they could still overcome any bottlenecks.

It's only now that I realize that as long as you have enough talent, there's no such thing as a bottleneck, and naturally there's no place for ordinary comprehension talent to shine.

………………

"For a long time to come, my talent should not hinder my cultivation."

Lu Heng finally reached a conclusion.

But he didn't celebrate too soon.

The issue of talent was resolved, but new problems arose.

Regarding resources, it's expected that resource consumption will also rise as his talent improves.

Lu Heng couldn't even obtain the relevant resources from the Lu clan.

Consuming too many resources in a short period of time is too likely to arouse suspicion from others.

As long as the Lu family isn't just sitting around doing nothing, someone will definitely be responsible for monitoring these things.

And there is another problem that will inevitably appear before him in the not-too-distant future.

That's about the breakthrough in the Qi Refining Secret Realm!

Lu Heng did not believe that the Lu family would take this matter lightly.

However, he is absolutely determined to pursue the perfect level of the "Basic Body Refining Method".

So how should he solve this problem?

Lu Heng had no clue what to do.

Lu Heng had no intention of continuing to create trouble for himself; he simply wanted to keep himself informed.

"We should ask the young lady what changes have been made to the ratings this time."

He also plans to test the transformation of his strength after reaching the first level of life rank.

As for how to explain the changes in myself?

Lu Heng was already prepared.
