Their commission was suspicious.

"Well..." Chen Luo didn't absorb any inner demons at all, so where did he get the ability from?

However, you can't say it like that, at least not to Yunxia.

Yesterday, Yunxia and Liu Wenxuan repeatedly told Chen Luo not to give this thing to anyone else and to absorb it immediately.

Now that Chen Luo says he didn't absorb it, he can't even explain it back to himself.

"I gained the ability to construct a consciousness space, where time flows differently from the outside world. One hour outside is 24 hours inside. I can practice swordsmanship inside, and even simulate enemies. But I can't let others use it."

Chen Luo shamelessly claimed the abilities of the Law of Knowledge as his own, and even went so far as to greatly simplify them.

According to the Lawrence of Consciousness himself, the speed of consciousness flow in the Lawrence of Consciousness space can reach up to 1000:1, and this is under the condition of maintaining it for a long time.

If the external environment is only maintained for two or three minutes, the ratio can reach as high as 10000:1.

In comparison, the 1:24 ratio mentioned by Chen Luo is as simplified as it gets.

"Hmm, not bad ability, especially for someone like you with a skill-based style, A Luo, it's really suitable." Yun Xia nodded approvingly.

Humans naturally possess various supernatural abilities generated by using the Mind Demon Induction technique, but most are related to the mind. Therefore, the emergence of this consciousness space is not too difficult to understand.

"It's just that using that thing too much can be tiring," Chen Luo began to complain about its drawbacks.

Entering the consciousness space of the Herald of Consciousness was indeed exhausting for Chen Luo, as such a large time difference consumed a lot of his mental energy.

The good news is that the Herald of Knowledge can help replenish mental energy, and the amount of mental energy replenished is not a big problem for the Herald of Knowledge.

Moreover, if you use this ability as an excuse, others won't see through it, since Chen Luo said that you can't drag others into it.

"Did you read the book I gave you yesterday?" Yunxia asked casually.

However, Yun Xia knew the answer without Chen Luo's reply, after all, who could resist the temptation of mysterious knowledge?

"No. I didn't look at much." Chen Luo shook his head.

"what?"

"It's mainly because of the training. This consciousness space really takes a lot of mental energy, so I went to bed early. But my progress has been quite fast." Chen Luo poked his head.

Chen Luo wasn't entirely lying, because he was indeed taken to the consciousness space by the Herrscher of Consciousness last night for a long time for training.

Chen Luo spends his evenings eating dinner, opening his shop, having a late-night snack, training, and sleeping. He's busier at night than during the day.

The result after the training was... no result.

Now that Chen Luo has upgraded all the skills he needed to, making further breakthroughs won't be so easy.

It's better to spend your time earning Primogems.

"By the way, Miss, would you be interested in playing yesterday's game again?" Chen Luo's heart stirred.

Earning 100 raw stones a day without interrupting any other activities is practically free! The only problem is not being able to talk to Yunxia, ​​but we can still exchange notes.

"What game... Get lost!" Yun Xia didn't react for a moment, but when she realized what Chen Luo was talking about, she turned her head away angrily and ignored him.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"..."

Chen Luo looked at the commission worth ten raw stones, then glanced at the teacher on the stage, and then scanned the students around him.

I'm sorry, raw gem, goodbye. This time, I really can't do it.

Chen Luo simply couldn't bring himself to die for 10 Primogems.

If it were a two-star mission that offered 100 Primogems, Chen Luo would hesitate.

After giving up on earning those ten primal stones, Chen Luo took out the basic manual Yun Xia had given him and started flipping through it in class.

The person at the table behind him was fast asleep, and Chen Luo's intuition was also very sharp, so there was no need to worry about being spied on.

This world is not simple. During the day, the world is peaceful and tranquil. Although wars occasionally occur in local areas, the overall trend of the earth is peace.

But as night falls, the underworld becomes increasingly active.

The so-called dark world is just a general term, but it is also a special concept. People live in the same world as ordinary people, but because of their different ways of life, they are like two ends of the same spectrum.

Those who become entangled with the underworld will be drawn deeper and deeper into its clutches; it's as if a curse is binding every insider of the underworld.

This is also why Yunxia and Liu Wenxuan, despite their deep concern for Chen Luo, didn't give him any protective items.

Yunxia only gave Chen Luo a large number of protective charms when she discovered that Chen Luo was deeply favored by the wind element and might awaken his talent.

The dark world has always existed, but many people haven't noticed it.

In the underworld, both the righteous and the evil abide by this rule: ordinary people will not be easily involved.

Of course, rules are meant to be broken.

Those demons that need to devour life will naturally target ordinary people as well.

Understanding the dark world is important, but this book focuses not on the dark world, but on the new "millennium".

Throughout history, every millennium has been a tide of spiritual energy.

During the first 50 years of a 1000-year period, spiritual energy will become increasingly active; this phase is known as the spiritual energy revival.

The activity of spiritual power reached its peak in the 250th year and continued until the 500th year.

However, after 500 years, the spiritual energy will begin to decline slowly again, and by 550 years, the decline will be even more drastic, and the spiritual energy will be even more depleted.

By 750, spiritual energy had almost disappeared, and the power of various supernatural abilities and techniques had greatly diminished, at most only good for fooling children.

The year 2000 marked the beginning of the new millennium.

This millennium should have been just as brilliant and magnificent as the previous millennia, yet also just as ordinary, but an unexpected event occurred.

The talents of children born at the beginning of this millennium are more terrifying than the last. S-level talents, which used to appear only once every fifty years, are now appearing in droves. The speed of spiritual energy recovery is also faster than ever before on record, and the abilities of these talents are even more bizarre.

Most importantly, something vastly different from all the previous recorded millennia appeared—the Abyss Plane.

It was only at this point that those in the underworld realized that there were other parallel dimensions besides their own.

The Abyss Plane is considered a high-level existence among the many planes.

Just by hearing the name, one can tell what the characteristics of the other plane are. So when the Abyss Plane first discovered this plane that had just experienced a spiritual revival, it was immediately interested.

Chapter 50: Do EX-level talents have no rights?

When Chen Luo saw this part, he thought that according to the usual protagonist law, the world was suffering a great calamity and he, as the protagonist, needed to step forward and save the world.

It's a pretty cliché, but which teenager hasn't fantasized like that?

But as Chen Luo continued reading, he realized he was wrong.

This world has indeed just experienced a spiritual revival in this millennium. It looks like a world with enormous potential but is still very young, like a prime lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

But don't forget, although this world has only just begun to experience a spiritual revival, there were countless powerful individuals throughout the millennia before.

When the spiritual energy declines and the world enters the Dharma-ending Age, true powerhouses will retreat to their own small worlds to seek refuge.

Those who perish with the end of the Dharma era are either cultivators of low strength or those who are nostalgic for the old era.

Once the spiritual energy revives, these powerful beings should appear one by one.

According to the rules, these powerful figures should emerge 100 years from now, when spiritual energy has recovered more comprehensively. This is both a convention and a rule of the world.

“Every era needs fresh blood. You old fogies should stay at home for 100 years and stop causing trouble. Give these young people some room to grow.”

Talented people emerge in every generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years!

This is probably the reason for such special regulations.

Simple constraints cannot perfectly enforce this rule, but adding divine punishment will suffice.

The Heavenly Punishment strikes with deadly accuracy; one strike can leave you half-dead. If you don't go back, another strike will kill you.

Unfortunately, the Abyss Plane had its eye on this plane for the first 10 years, and then finally sent out an elite army to launch a major attack in the last two years!

These big shots were initially anxious about what they saw, but then they discovered that when the other side invaded, their people went out to fight with all their might and were not punished by the heavens. In fact, they even received a small reward.

Even though the enemy will be thrown back into seclusion after the invasion ends, who wouldn't want a reward?

Then... those elite troops were utterly humiliated.

Then that abyss dimension realized: Holy crap, we've kicked a hornet's nest, we've actually run into a higher dimension of the same level.

Finally, the two planes established diplomatic relations.

Because the overlap between the two planes is quite high, some fixed special channels are formed.

However, despite the establishment of diplomatic relations, the two worlds still harbored ulterior motives towards each other.

When I discovered that at the intersection of those planes, some special small planes gradually formed, which produced some special outputs, I almost splattered my brains out.

They fought even more fiercely after discovering that killing someone from the opposing dimension would grant them special experience points.

Not only do they fight against the other side, but they also have to fight against various monsters and demons born from the small planes in the special passages.

Even people from the same plane will fight each other because they belong to different factions.

For example, when Liu Wenxuan encounters his inner demons, although they are both forces in this world, if they don't encounter any opposing forces, they will fight to the death.

In short, the situation is quite complicated.

But... what does it have to do with me?

Chen Luo felt that he would never have anything to do with the abyss in his life.

Since this plane isn't in imminent danger, why would I stick to it?

Instead of spending time in the abyss, you might as well take some time to explore other worlds.

Going to other worlds allows you to collect gems and enrich your travel experience—why not?

Don't forget Chen Luo's talent; he's a traveler, not a tool.

Chen Luo mainly needs to travel.

It's true that getting raw stones through commissions is faster.

Soon Chen Luo flipped to the introduction about talent.

Perhaps it's because the new millennium has begun, and it has encountered a major event like a dimensional invasion right from the start. Although no major problems have arisen, it is clear that more and more people with extremely high talent have emerged in this millennium.

In the past, there were at most 100 or so S-level or higher talent holders in a thousand years.

As a result, in the new millennium, nearly a hundred S-class units appeared in just 20 years.

The order of talent from lowest to highest is E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS.

This level of assessment is determined when a person with a talent awakens their talent, at the same time they learn their talent level.

Those below Grade A are alright; although there are still very few talented individuals, their numbers aren't that rare.

A-level is already quite rare, belonging to the kind of prime minister role that is second only to the emperor.

S-rank is undoubtedly the emperor, after all, in the past millennium, such a person would only appear once every 10 years or so. It's just that the number of talented people who have appeared in this millennium is a bit too many.

Perhaps this "millennium" is what truly signifies a spiritual revival.

As for SS, that's like an emperor emeritus; there's no SS-level talent in the entire world right now.

This doesn't mean that SS-level talents are so rare that they don't exist in the world, but rather that SS-level talents are generally achieved by breaking through the limits of S-level talents.

However, the new millennium has only been going on for about 20 years, and there are still no talents who have been upgraded to SS level.

As for SSS-level talent, that's just something that SS-level talents say might appear.

Of course, it doesn't mean that you can't enter the Dark World if you haven't awakened your talent. Besides those with talent, this world still has a cultivation system.

The cultivation system and the talent system are not as clearly distinct as one might imagine, because the talent system can also be used for cultivation, and people in the cultivation system may also awaken their talents.

However, since the systems are different, they naturally have their own shining moments.

Generally speaking, the first 100 years of a new millennium are dominated by natural talent, because those old relics are all hiding in their own little worlds, and after 500 years, most cultivation systems have slowly been submerged in history.

Let alone 500 years, even 100 years can cause a great deal of things to gradually fade away.

Science emerged, especially in the last few centuries of the Dharma-ending Age in the last millennium.

This instantly turned the already declining cultivation system into a complete idiot.

One hundred years later, after all the big shots have been unsealed, the cultivation system will grow stronger. However, this does not mean that the talent system will decline, but rather that it will gradually be integrated into the cultivation system.

No one says that gifted people can't cultivate; in fact, some gifted people are even more suited to cultivation.
