Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 92 God’s Blessed One

Hearing his father's words, the boy's expression froze and the confidence on his face disappeared instantly.

The boy, somewhat incredulous, quickly picked up the brochure and began to read it carefully.

"Due to the different innate conditions among the various races, the minimum standards for participating in the Glory Expedition Plan also vary.

The minimum standard for humans to participate in the assessment is: to practice the Myriad Spirits Breathing Method to the ninth level or above before the age of sixteen! "

After reading this, the boy's face had already fallen a little: "How is this possible?"

The boy's mother also frowned: "This requirement is indeed a bit too strict. It's probably difficult for ordinary people to meet it."

"The Glory Expedition isn't a game, it's a real war. The stricter it is, the more it represents the importance and responsibility that Cradle of Life places on the Glory Expedition.

The progress of practicing the All-Spirit Breathing Method is only the most basic requirement, which represents whether a person has the potential to become an extraordinary person.

After all, if one wants to travel to other worlds to participate in the Glorious Expedition, or even fight alongside the Holy Angel Legion, one must at least possess the strength of a transcendent.

Otherwise, in a war of that scale, they wouldn't even be able to guarantee their own safety, and would only become a burden to the Holy Angel Legion, making it difficult for them to make any meaningful contribution."

The boy's father explained slowly and the boy's mother nodded after listening.

"There's still a year and a half left. Maybe I can..."

The boy was a little lacking in confidence, but he still didn't want to miss this opportunity to realize his dream which was so close to him.

"Unless you can suddenly become enlightened and practice the Myriad Spirits Breathing Technique at a much faster pace, then there is hope that you can catch up.

Or if there were enough Life Essence to assist in cultivation, that could significantly increase the efficiency of practicing the Myriad Souls Breathing Technique, but this is not very realistic."

The boy's father didn't want to hit his son, but the cruel reality was before him and he had no choice but to accept it.

If nothing unexpected happened, the young man would most likely not meet the minimum standards for participating in the Glory Expedition Program assessment.

There is no need to talk about sudden enlightenment, that is a kind of illusory fantasy.

Using life essence to assist in cultivation is a feasible method, but their family simply does not have the conditions for it.

The so-called essence of life is also a special medicine passed down from the cradle of life.

It is rich in a large amount of life energy. Long-term consumption can not only prolong life, but also greatly improve the efficiency of practicing the Wanling Breathing Method. It is an auxiliary practice resource that matches the Wanling Breathing Method.

But it is not an easy task to prepare the essence of life.

This not only requires extensive knowledge, but also extremely high mental strength. Ordinary pharmacists do not have the level to prepare the essence of life.

Even if it can be imported from other worlds or even the cradle of life, it still cannot meet everyone's needs.

Because of this, life essence is one of the restricted resources in the entire world.

Not only is it expensive, but there are also corresponding purchase restrictions.

However, given their family's financial situation, this purchase restriction is basically the same as not having it. Even if they use all the salary they save from monthly frugality to buy life essence, they simply cannot afford to buy many bottles.

It is used to assist the young man in practicing the All-Spirit Breathing Technique, and it can only last for about five days at most.

It is impossible to improve your All Souls Breathing Method from the sixth level to the ninth level within a year and a half by relying on the extra progress made during these few days of each month.

When the young man heard this, he was silent for a moment.

It is impossible for him to blame his parents for not being able to give him the best conditions. However, he still feels a little lost because the way to realize his dream is right in front of him but he cannot realize it.

"Actually, you don't have to be too sad."

The boy's father suddenly said this, which made the boy raise his head. Could there be a turning point in this matter?
"Even if you can cultivate the Myriad Souls Breathing Technique to the ninth level before the age of 16, that is only the minimum standard for participating in the assessment, not the ability to directly join the Glory Expedition Plan.

According to the normal conscription process, the subsequent assessment is nothing more than the comprehensive scores of cultural courses and tactics courses.

The most basic Wanling Breathing Method has such high requirements, so the difficulty of subsequent assessments can be imagined.

Even if you can barely reach the ninth level of the All-Spirit Breathing Technique before the age of 16, you will most likely only make it through one round and won't be able to pass the subsequent assessments at all.

So don't feel bad about not making enough progress in practicing the Myriad Souls Breathing Technique. It's a hopeless situation to begin with."

juvenile:"……"

No, is there anyone as comforting as you?

The old father's words were too heartbreaking, causing the boy's face to heat up, but he was powerless to refute.

However, after this round of counseling, the boy did feel better.

If a dream is really within reach but cannot be realized, it will indeed make people feel extremely lost, and it may even become a lifelong regret.

But when the gap reaches a certain level, the inability to achieve it no longer seems so unacceptable.

It was his dream to be able to meet a holy angel, but there wasn't really only one way to achieve his dream.

Even if he cannot participate in the Glory Expedition, he will still have the opportunity to see the holy angels in the future, and he does not have to stick to this method.

The top leaders of each world have the opportunity to go to the Cradle of Life to attend various meetings every year. He had never been obsessed with becoming one of those top leaders before.

This time, the Glorious Expedition Plan came a little too suddenly, leaving the young man unable to react, which led to some unrealistic fantasies.

After recognizing the reality, it is actually not something difficult to accept.

At worst, I can work hard to save money after I start working, and apply to go to the Cradle of Life. At most, I will have to live frugally for a few years, and I will still be able to realize my dream and see the legendary holy angel with my own eyes.

No longer sullen, the boy's expression quickly returned to normal, and after finishing his dinner he returned to his room.

After finishing today's homework and washing up, the boy lay on his bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Although I have recognized the gap between reality and reality, the path to realizing my dream is right in front of me, yet it is out of reach. How can I not feel regret about it?
What's more, the reason why the young man worships the holy angels and even regards meeting the holy angels as his dream is because of the many great deeds they have left in history.

They brought hope of progress to the backward world and a bright future to the oppressed people at the bottom of society.

This is why the boy worships the holy angels so much, and it has never been because of their powerful strength.

If he could pass the assessment of the Glory Expedition Plan, participate in future Glory Expeditions, and even fight alongside the Holy Angel Legion, wouldn't that mean that he might also become the person he admires the most?
It’s a pity that reality is cruel and it will not change because of the young man’s desire.

If one wants to practice the All-Spirit Breathing Technique to the ninth level within a year and a half, even the academic performance and combat skills must reach top levels, which is almost impossible for a young man.

With a hint of regret that was hard to conceal, the boy slowly closed his eyes.

But at this moment, an indescribable bright light suddenly lit up in the boy's mind.

In a trance, the boy also saw a tall and majestic figure embracing the world.

At this moment, I felt as if I was standing right in front of that tall and majestic shadow, being embraced in that tall and majestic shadow's arms.

Endless information poured into the boy's mind and transformed into some special rules.

The boy who was about to fall asleep immediately jumped up from his bed, his face full of excitement and disbelief.

"That is, God?"

As a believer in God, the boy was not unfamiliar with the image of God.

Although the image of God is not a fixed state, the majestic shadow embracing the world is undoubtedly one of the most widely circulated images.

The emblem of the Church of All Souls and the statues everywhere were customized based on the image of that majestic shadow.

Was the scene that just happened in my mind some kind of blessing from God to me?

Following the instinctive reminder in his mind, the young man silently said in his heart: "Advance payment."

The next moment, several paragraphs of text appeared before his eyes. [Everything has an end, only time is eternal.]

When you hold the power of time, you can transcend everything, anchor the present, and anticipate the future.

[Power is awakening...]

Soon, the countless pieces of information that had previously flooded into his mind resurfaced and converged into a simple panel in front of him.

[Power: Advance]

[Current Power Level: 1]

[Number of projects that can be prepaid at present: 1]

[Predictable items: All-Spirit Breathing Technique, Basic Combat Techniques, Basic Manufacturing, Basic Formation Knowledge...]

"This……"

Looking at the panel in front of him, the boy's eyes were full of shock.

According to the information transmitted from the panel, the boy knew that he had awakened a power called "advance payment", which allowed him to draw various experiences from his future to improve his present self.

And there is no cost, but it cannot be advanced continuously, and it takes a certain amount of time to restore the stability of the anchor point.

The young man couldn't understand why there was such a good thing.

This is even more exaggerated than pie falling from the sky. No, this is definitely related to God.

The young man thought of the majestic shadow that had just appeared in his mind. He believed that his ability to awaken this power called "advance" must be a blessing from God.

Without giving it any more thought, the young man silently thanked God in his heart, and then turned his attention to the panel.

I can advance a project now, and there is naturally no doubt which one to advance.

"Advance payment for the 'All Souls Breathing Method'."

Without any hesitation, the boy chose the Advance All-Spirit Breathing Method.

After all, he didn't know how long it would take for the anchor to become stable again after he advanced a project.

If you advance funds for another project and then need another year or two to advance funds for the next project, and you are unable to meet the minimum standards for participating in the assessment, then it will be too late to regret it.

As the young man confirmed the advance use of the All-Spirit Breathing Method, he fell into a very special state.

Under the influence of his own power, the boy's consciousness seemed to have left his body at this moment, observing his own changes from another angle.

In the deduction of power, with the boy's current state, he can only practice the All Souls Breathing Method to the ninth level when he is 21 years old.

This is already a very good result, and he can be considered a talent worthy of training in the military system.

But if you want to take part in the assessment of the Glory Expedition, you are totally unqualified.

Levels one to nine of the All-Spirit Breathing Method belong to the beginner stage. Above the beginner stage is the mastery stage, which is also divided into levels one to nine.

Above mastery is perfection. At the perfection stage, there is no more level division. That is the limit of the All Spirits Breathing Method.

He reached the ninth level of beginner at the age of 21, and it was not until he was 29 that the boy's All Souls Breathing Method reached the mastery stage.

At the age of 33, he reached the second level of proficiency, at the age of 39, he reached the third level of proficiency, and at the age of 55, he reached the fourth level. After that, there was no further breakthrough.

It seemed like a long time had passed, or it seemed like just a moment had passed, and the boy's consciousness returned to his body.

At the same time, a steady stream of insights and experiences about the All-Spirit Breathing Method also flooded into the boy's mind.

The boy accepted this information without any obstacles, and his All Souls Breathing Method went directly from the sixth level of the beginner stage to the fourth level of the mastery stage.

"This is, mastering the fourth level of the All-Spirit Breathing Technique..."

Although his own strength has not changed for the time being, after the All-Spirit Breathing Technique has been upgraded to the fourth level of mastery, the boy's control over his body has reached a higher level.

In terms of combat capability, he could easily beat several of his previous selves.

Moreover, it will only take a few months at most for his physical qualities and life essence to be improved to the level corresponding to mastering the fourth level of the All-Spirit Breathing Technique.

The only price is that your appetite will increase a lot during this period. After all, the growth of strength and the improvement of life essence require sufficient supply of life energy.

But these are just minor problems. Although his family is not rich, there will be no problem if he just eats a little more.

He can now lift objects weighing hundreds of kilograms with one hand. In a few months, his strength will be increased to more than three times what it is now.

Although there is still a certain gap between them and true extraordinary people, there is also a clear distance between them and ordinary people.

Most importantly, mastering the fourth level of the All-Spirit Breathing Technique has far exceeded the minimum standard for participating in the Glory Expedition assessment.

The boy didn't know the specific content of the assessment, but he had now awakened the power of 'advance', and could advance more projects in the future, so he should have no problem passing the assessment.

Thinking of this, an uncontrollable smile appeared on the boy's face.

He heard that every holy angel in the Cradle of Life could practice the All Souls Breathing Method to perfection before reaching adulthood.

As long as they reach adulthood, they are hexagonal warriors without any weaknesses among the extraordinary people, and they are simply terrifyingly strong.

Before this, the boy never thought that he could be compared with the holy angels.

Even if they were able to join the Glory Expedition Plan and become a member of the Glory Expedition Corps, they would most likely only be able to help in the process of fighting alongside the Holy Angel Corps.

After all, the strength of the Holy Angel Legion is too strong, and the minimum standard of the warriors in it is to be a mid-level or above extraordinary person.

This is a powerful existence rarely seen in many worlds, but in the Holy Angel Legion, he is just one of the most ordinary warriors.

One can imagine how difficult it is to truly fight side by side with the Holy Angel Legion.

But now, the boy saw hope.

Having awakened the 'advance' of power, it is difficult to foresee what the future will be like. Perhaps there will really be a day when I can fight alongside the Holy Angel Legion.

……

In the 638th year of the Dawn Calendar, the Kingdom of Dawn officially launched the Glorious Expedition.

The purpose of launching this plan is not only to cultivate military forces outside the Cradle of Life, but also to adjust the ruling territory of the Kingdom of Dawn.

The world that has made greater contributions in the process of foreign wars will occupy a more important position in the future ruling territory of the Kingdom of Dawn.

This is an inevitable adjustment. After all, as the Kingdom of Dawn's territory continues to expand, it is impossible for the many worlds to be completely connected together.

Even with a space teleportation device, there will inevitably be some kind of regional division.

With the cradle of life as the center, each of these areas will have its own central world.

If they can become the central world, it will greatly promote the development of their respective worlds.

Because of this, the top leaders of many worlds have put in their best efforts to fully cooperate with the implementation of the Glory Expedition.

It is foreseeable that as the Glory Expedition Plan continues to advance, except for a few worlds that have special status.

Most of the central worlds will be born in the Glory Expedition plan.

It was also in this year that beings with various powers awakened began to emerge continuously in the Cradle of Life and the many worlds ruled by the Kingdom of Dawn.

This is the influence of the three major powers held by Chen Li.

These individuals who were awakened by Chen Li's influence are also called "God's Favored Ones".
