Dragon Ball: Starting with a power level increase of 1 per second

Chapter 235 News from Whis! The Tournament of Power is about to begin!

"Success!!!"

The system has been successfully upgraded, increasing combat power by 1 unit per second!

Super Saiyan Demon!

Feeling the wonders of this new form, Lin Chuan's aura quickly returned.

Although the boost from the transformation isn't that strong, it's still comparable to the peak of Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan 4 with black hair.

However, although the amplification intensity is similar, in terms of destructive power, the power of darkness is probably more domineering than the power of the gods.

"Although the power boost from this transformation isn't too strong, being able to upgrade the system is the biggest gain, and this form also has potential for development! In this form, I can transform into a Super Saiyan... just like Super Saiyan Blue." Lin Chuan's mood became increasingly excited, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

In his Super Saiyan Demon form, his smile appeared somewhat sinister and terrifying, even more chilling than a demon's smile.

To be honest, ever since he mastered Super Saiyan 5, he has been trying to increase the number of transformations in order to upgrade the system's level.

This time-traveling journey not only led him to Lin Xue, but also exposed him to the power of darkness, inadvertently allowing him to develop the Super Saiyan Demon transformation and upgrade the system's level.

A power increase of 1 unit per second is undoubtedly a huge boost for him, who is currently only in the ninth dimension.

A day has 86400 seconds, which is 86,400 zi!

A month has 2592000 seconds, which is 259,2000.

A year has 31104000 seconds, which is 31,104,000!

Even if there is no progress, his normal combat strength can break through to the tenth dimension in just two or three years!

Lin Chuan felt that if he ascended to another major dimension, he might usher in a new transformation.

However, even so, Lin Chuan did not want to rely entirely on the system.

Over the years, Lin Chuan has had fewer and fewer opportunities to utilize the system's combat capabilities.

While it's inevitable that the system will help you become stronger, it's not a complete dependence.

With a thought, the dark power around Lin Chuan gradually dissipated, and his form returned to normal.

Instead of pursuing further cultivation to the next level of Super Saiyan Demon, he took a steady and methodical approach, progressing step by step.

Being impatient for quick results might work, but excessive pressure will take a huge toll on both your physical and mental health.

Just as he was about to leave the pass, Lin Chuan seemed to suddenly sense something.

He raised his hand and opened it slightly, and a white ball of light appeared out of thin air.

This is not an ordinary energy ball, but a special communication orb that Angel Weiss once gave to Lin Chuan.

"I never expected this thing could transmit messages across time and space, even reaching the Time Realm I created... Is the Tournament of Power about to be held?" Lin Chuan received the message from Weiss through the communication information.

The accident happened so suddenly. He thought he had plenty of time to do more things, but now it seems he has to go back as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the crisis here has been dealt with. Now we just need to see what concerns Xiaoxue may have.

After all, it was she who asked to go back later.

"By normal reckoning, a year should have passed since I left."

Retracting the white light, Lin Chuan dispelled the Time Realm in an instant and returned to the outer Time Realm space.

"Hmm? Piccolo isn't here?" The moment he emerged from seclusion, Lin Chuan used his divine sense to perceive the entire isolated small space, but he couldn't sense Piccolo's presence.

It was strange, but Lin Chuan immediately realized that Piccolo must have gone to the outside world.

As his divine sense spread outwards to cover the Time Nest, Piccolo's presence quickly entered his perception.

……

At this moment, the Nest of Time was shrouded in a profound and powerful dragon's might.

A deep golden light enveloped the entire Nest of Time.

Six days ago, Piccolo left the outer realm of time and found Chronoa, the Supreme Kai of Time, from whom he learned some secrets about the Dragon God Zalama.

Although he didn't know much, Chronoa's description enlightened Piccolo, giving him more inspiration for breakthroughs.

To help Piccolo break through his limits without disturbing Lin Chuan, Chronoa set up a Time Realm for him in another space within the Nest of Time for him to cultivate.

Now, Piccolo has reached a crucial moment for a breakthrough.

Future Gohan, Future Lin Xue, and the Time Patrol members are all watching.

The dragon's might permeating the space brought immense pressure to their bodies and souls.

"Uncle Piccolo, are we finally going to take that step?! That's amazing! This pressure is making it hard for me to breathe." Future Gohan clenched his fists, and although the pressure was immense, his expression was exhilarating.

Even though they come from different time and space worlds, Son Gohan is still Son Gohan, and Piccolo will always be his master.

He was genuinely happy for Piccolo's further progress.

"The power is starting to gather; Uncle Piccolo will be out of seclusion soon," Lin Xue said, perking up and focusing intently.

In her previous timeline, Piccolo's uncle also possessed immense power, second only to his father, Lin Chuan.

Even though Uncle Vegeta and his friends are quite strong, Uncle Piccolo is still a little bit stronger than Uncle Vegeta.

"Although I have felt the power of the Dragon God before, this time the feeling is completely different from the previous times," Sun Wukong FUTURE exclaimed.

He was both excited and unwilling to accept defeat. Judging from the profound dragon's might alone, Piccolo was far ahead of him.

Unless he can break through the limits again and master a higher level of Super Saiyan God, he will not be able to catch up with Piccolo now.

"It's really annoying that guy has gotten stronger again. I'm starting to look forward to seeing what he'll look like after his transformation." Raditz FUTURE said with a smile and a hint of anticipation.

Although they do not belong to the same time and space world, Piccolo is still among the top-tier combatants in his world.

Now, witnessing firsthand the transformation and sublimation of a piccolo from a past time and space, he felt an indescribable mix of emotions.

"Don't speak, just watch quietly." Vegeta Future crossed his arms and looked serious.

He wanted to see just how far Piccolo's transformation would go.

Future Trepp, Future Goten, and Future Trunks also became extremely focused, keeping their eyes glued to the center of the light.

Just then, Lin Chuan silently arrived at the Nest of Time and directly experienced the overwhelming power of the Dragon God.

"It seems I emerged from seclusion at the perfect time, and you've reached the most crucial step! This dragon's might is vastly different from before," Lin Chuan exclaimed, a smile on his face.

No one noticed his arrival, and at the same time, he began to look forward to the changes that would occur after Piccolo emerged from seclusion.

Will I ever reach that level?!

……

Time passed second by second.

The overwhelming dragon's might that permeated the Nest of Time was also gradually receding.

Soon after, all the dragon's might dissipated, and the dazzling golden light that permeated the space also disappeared.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Piccolo's appearance was revealed.

It looks no different from usual.

This scene left all the time patrollers stunned.

This is so different from what they expected.

After Piccolo emerged from seclusion, shouldn't he be in his transformed state? Could it be that his breakthrough failed???

*Slap! Slap! Slap!*

Just then, a pleasant round of applause rang out.

The one who clapped was undoubtedly Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan bypassed the crowd and walked to Piccolo. Just because others couldn't see Piccolo's change didn't mean he couldn't.

Through the system's capabilities, Lin Chuan saw Piccolo's current combat power, which was a full 2000.

"You've come out of seclusion too, Old Lin?" Piccolo stared directly at Lin Chuan, looking him up and down.

He thought that with his improved strength, he could see Lin Chuan more clearly, but he never expected that the mist covering Lin Chuan would become even thicker.

Even with his current strength, he still can't see through it.

"You should have taken that step by now, right?" Lin Chuan asked.

"It can only be considered a half-step forward. To achieve a complete breakthrough, some opportunities are still needed. Compared to that realm, the power of laws has made a significant breakthrough," Piccolo replied with a smile.

"Well, it's perfect that you've finished your seclusion. I also have something to tell you. Just now, Weiss from our world contacted me, seemingly about the Tournament of Power. So, this time travel journey has to come to an end." Lin Chuan went straight to the point and took the opportunity to tell me about the Tournament of Power.

Upon hearing this news, Piccolo paused for a moment, then said with slight surprise, "West was actually able to contact you? The existence of angels is truly beyond my comprehension, even now."

"Yes. In short, we have to go back now," Lin Chuan replied.

"I don't have any problem, it's just your daughter, Lin Xue..." Piccolo said.

Both of them turned their gazes to Lin Xue, who was standing to the side.

"Xiaoxue, although Dad doesn't want to rush you, the Power Tournament concerns the survival of our universe, so we should go home," Lin Chuan said in a gentle tone.

Lin Xue didn't want to put Lin Chuan in a difficult position. She nodded and said, "I've finished taking care of everything in the past two days, so now I can go back with Dad and Uncle Piccolo."

Having received the answer he wanted, Lin Chuan's smile widened even more.

It's finally time to go home.

Because of this unexpected event, the separation came very suddenly.

Especially for all the time patrollers and Chronoa, they were caught off guard and felt very reluctant to part with it.

But they were genuinely happy for Lin Xue because she had found her place.

The atmosphere was somber, but they didn't leave immediately.

So after some discussion, everyone, together with Kuronoa, prepared a farewell banquet to say goodbye to Lin Chuan, Lin Xue, Piccolo, and others.

Even though they had just held a victory celebration banquet two days prior.

Time flies, and the next day arrived in the blink of an eye.

After yesterday's farewell banquet, Lin Chuan did not take Lin Xue and Piccolo directly back.

Instead, Lin Xue and Piccolo were given another night.

The reason Piccolo was given time was so that he could say goodbye to the future Gohan.

"I'm leaving! We may have a chance to meet again in the future, so there's no need to be sad. If you want to come back and visit, there will be many opportunities in the future." With these words, Lin Chuan opened up a space-time tunnel with a wave of his hand.

As the three stepped inside, the space-time tunnel vanished, as if it had never existed.

Kuronoa led all the time patrollers to stand for a long time without dispersing.

……

Located in the main timeline to which Lin Chuan belongs.

Temple of Heaven.

Beerus the God of Destruction, Whis the Angel, Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Raditz, Broly, Tien Shinhan, and Krillin's group have gathered here for the Tournament of Power.

Just yesterday, the Omni-King could no longer wait. In order to experience the fun of the Tournament of Power, he ordered Universe 7 and Universe 9 to each send three contestants to compete in a preliminary battle at the Omni-King's Temple.

Originally, Lin Chuan was supposed to lead the team to the competition, but since Lin Chuan wasn't there, the people representing Universe 7 were replaced by Goku, Raditz, and Broly. Even Vegeta only found out about this recently.

Although their strength wasn't as outrageously high as Lin Chuan and Piccolo's, the three of them still won this inter-universe preliminary battle.

With the conclusion of the preliminary battles, the Tournament of Power has officially been put on the agenda.

"Hasn't that guy come back yet? Humph! Daring to cross time and space without permission, how audacious." Beerus sat in front of the food prepared by Popo. Normally, he would have been eating heartily by now, but he had no appetite at all.

The Tournament of Power was giving him a huge headache, especially since Lin Chuan and Piccolo, two of the top fighters in Universe 7, hadn't returned, which made him even more upset.

"Please be patient, Lord Beerus. I have already informed Lin Chuan, and he should be on his way back. There is still plenty of time, so let's wait a little longer," Weiss said from the side.

"Hopefully that guy can move quickly, I don't want any more accidents to happen!" Beerus sighed helplessly before starting to eat the food on the table.

The preliminary contestants for the Tournament of Power have actually all been assembled.

Without a doubt, as the main fighting force of Universe 7, the warriors on Earth cannot escape.

It has to be said that everyone underwent a complete transformation during this year, with their strength increasing dramatically.

Time passed by, second by second.

The peaceful atmosphere lasted for nearly another hour.

With a "whoosh~!" sound.

As the time tunnel appeared, three auras emanated from it.

Everyone perked up at that moment, their gazes simultaneously shifting to the suddenly appearing time tunnel.

Lin Chuan, Piccolo, and Future Lin Xue emerged from the time tunnel.

Everyone's eyes lit up, and all attention was focused on Lin Xue.

The group already knew that Lin Chuan was going to find Lin Xue in the future and bring her back.

However, seeing each other again after so many years is naturally different from what we saw back then.
