The undead have descended upon the world? I possess a sword that can cleave the heavens once more!

Wu You's figure stood silently in mid-air.

He slightly closed his silver lips, carefully sensing the warm and vast power within his body, and carefully sensing its peculiar operating method.

The power surged from the depths of his heart, circulated throughout his body, flowing through every inch of flesh and bone, and then slowly condensed behind his head.

Those warm particles of light converged from every corner of the body toward the top of the head, like invisible rivers flowing into the same ocean.

In the end, they transformed into a silvery-white halo.

The halo was woven from countless fine filaments of light, each filament radiating a soft yet vast light, as if it were formed from the compressed and condensed light of countless stars.

The halo emanating from it shone on Wu You's long white hair, turning the white strands into a faint silver, as if draped with a shimmering galaxy.

The heart holds the supreme fire of true yang, which shines forth without relying on the sun or moon.

This is the mark of a tenth-tier True Yang expert – the True Yang Wheel!

However, unlike the pure white True Yang Wheel that Wu You obtained in the [Separation from Hatred] state last time, this time, the True Yang Wheel he formed after his strength fully reached the tenth rank was silver-white.

Moreover, this time, Wu You could sense even more things.

First, after summoning his own True Yang Wheel, Wu You discovered that his sensory abilities, including his five senses, had been greatly enhanced.

Even the thick fog in the Class A danger zone in front of him could not block his vision.

If he wanted to, nothing within a two-kilometer radius of himself could escape his perception.

The shape of every grain of earth and stone on the ground, the flow of every wisp of dark mist in the air, the patterns of every crack on the distant hills—everything was clearly visible to him.

At the same time, he could also feel that after summoning the True Yang Wheel, that warm and vast power spontaneously circulated around his body, protecting him from all angles.

As for the True Yang Wheel's boost to strength, it's not very significant, only increasing it by about 30% to 40%.

Compared to the massive improvement in the virtual form, this increase does seem rather insignificant.

But the key is that the True Yang Wheel consumes very little energy!

Unless it's in a virtual state, even if it's on all day, there won't be much of an energy burden.

This means that during a long battle, he can keep the True Yang Wheel active, maintain that 30-40% boost, and enjoy the 360-degree protection and enhanced perception.

Through his own personal experience, Wu You finally understood.

In summary, the so-called True Yang Wheel mainly provides an overall boost and greatly enhances the ability to perceive, defend, and resist various abnormal states.

Compared to the illusory form obtained upon reaching the ninth rank, which greatly enhances combat and attack capabilities, the True Yang Wheel primarily addresses the shortcomings in perception and self-defense.

Of course, the strength of the tenth-level True Yang Realm has also greatly improved, and crushing the ninth level is definitely not a problem.

It is no exaggeration to say that if a tenth-level True Yang Realm expert activates the True Yang Wheel in the Void Form state, even without retaliating, he could stand there and be attacked by a group of ninth-level Void Form Realm experts, and they probably wouldn't be able to break through his defenses, let alone cause any damage.

If the ninth-order illusory form represents the ultimate enhancement of attack and destructive capabilities, then the tenth-order true yang represents an overall improvement, supplementing defense, perception, and other aspects with comprehensive enhancements!

After the experiment, Wu You withdrew that warm and vast power, and the True Yang Ring that was slowly flowing behind his head also disappeared.

Just as he was about to leave this Class A danger zone, he suddenly stopped.

He suddenly noticed that there was some new information on the Sword Manual panel!

Without any hesitation, his consciousness sank into the sword manual, his gaze falling on the newly emerged line of text.

Level: 10 ([Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter] detected, [Sword Heart Clarity] detected, necessary conditions met, can consume 60 million experience points to directly upgrade level to [11]!)

Upon seeing the message, his silver eyes widened slightly for a moment.

[Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter]? [Sword Heart Clarity]?

The necessary conditions have been met. Can I spend 60 million experience points to directly advance to level eleven?

"Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter, Sword Heart Clarity, Eleventh Rank..."

Wu You narrowed his eyes slightly.

The Fifth Lord Li once told him that only at the eleventh level could one come into contact with the rules, and that the eleventh level was also called the Realm of Enlightenment.

Judging from the "necessary conditions have been met" shown in the Sword Manual, the "clarity" of Sword Heart Clarity and the "clarity" of the eleventh-level Clarity Realm are clearly the same thing.

This also confirms a conjecture Wu You made earlier: all paths lead to the same destination! The system of ability users and the system of sword manuals are not two completely parallel paths. At a certain level or at certain important junctures, they will converge, merge, and mutually verify each other.

Another point is that each move of the Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter represents a different sword intent, and each sword intent involves the existence of rules.

It was precisely because the sword intent of the Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter involved rules and the Sword Heart Clarity provided a state of enlightenment that Wu Youyi was able to immediately meet the conditions for advancing to the eleventh level of the Enlightenment Realm after reaching the tenth level of the True Yang Realm.

As for the required 6000 million experience points, Wu You speculated that it was very likely that the Sword Codex needed experience points to drive changes in the energy levels within his body.

Wu You, having figured it out, suddenly sighed.

[Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter] Chapter 5: Judgment (0/4000w)

Level: 10 (Conditions met; 60 million experience points can be consumed to directly upgrade the level to [11])

The Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter requires experience points, and you also need experience points to directly upgrade to the eleventh rank.

All of that adds up to experience points for a small goal!

"It's a long road ahead."

However, Wu You wasn't worried. Even if he needed a small goal's worth of experience points, given his current rate of accumulating over five million experience points per day, it would only take him less than twenty days.

It's just that the zombies in the various danger zones will have to suffer a bit more.

But then, seeing the torchbearers starting to enter this dangerous area one after another to collect resources, Wu You couldn't help but shake his head: No, how can we make the zombies suffer?

He gained warm experience points, which he could use to level up; his colleagues in Jiuli harvested many resources, which they could use to exchange for contribution points; and the corpses also gained eternal peace, no longer needing to toil.

Everyone clearly has a bright future ahead of them.

This is a win-win-win situation!

Thinking of this, Wu You's lips unconsciously curled up.

Then, his figure turned into a blur and disappeared silently from the spot.
