Multiverse Skill System

There are no steps involved in cultivation, such as compressing qi into liquid, crystal, or golden elixir, let alone the later stages like primordial spirit. It can be said that the people in this world have always been stuck in the qi cultivation stage. However, due to the strength of their bloodline, their combat power can reach a level far exceeding their own cultivation level.

It is precisely because of this distorted cultivation method that people with low bloodlines in this world find it difficult to become true strongmen. For example, the Earthlings in this world, even after cultivating to the end, are still no match for Sun Wukong's Super Saiyan transformation.

To say their efforts were inferior to Sun Wukong's? In the early stages, their efforts were probably the same as Sun Wukong's. It was only later, no matter how hard they tried, that they couldn't match the crazy progress of Sun Wukong and the other Saiyans, so they gradually became complacent and eventually faded into obscurity.

Earthlings really have poor bloodlines. An average person, converted to combat power, only has 2 points, and only 5 points when wielding a shotgun. In the early stages, it only takes a few...

A combat power of 10 points is enough to dominate Earth, while Piccolo Daimaō, with a combat power of only around 200-300, can still rule the Earth. This is unimaginable on other planets.

Think about the Namekians. They may be fewer in number, but even ordinary Namekians have a combat power of at least three digits, and the powerful ones have tens of thousands.

For Earthlings, cultivating to a higher level is called breaking limits and defying the heavens, while Sun Wukong's cultivation is simply tapping into his own potential. The difficulty of the two is completely different.

The reason why Sun Wukong was able to stand out from many Saiyans was not only because his head was knocked out and he unexpectedly possessed a childlike heart, but also because Earthlings' training philosophy had a huge influence on him. Using the mindset of breaking limits to tap into potential naturally makes it easier.

"So, the problem now is, how do I learn Instant Transmission? Should I go to the planet where Goku learned it, or can I just use the Dragon Balls to wish for it? Either way, I have to go to the Northern Galaxy! Does that mean I'm destined to spend about 10 years on the spaceship?"

The thought of spending 10 years on a spaceship filled Yi Shuihan with a thousand, ten thousand unwillingnesses. Of course, the spaceship's speed couldn't match Yi Shuihan's own flying speed. If he were to fly, the time would probably be shortened to a few months, but that wasn't what Yi Shuihan wanted.

"Brother Yi, are you leaving? Is it because I haven't treated you well enough? Please stay! You're my only confidant. If you stay, I'm willing to give you half of the Galo Star Region."

When Yi Shuihan asked Luo Mo if there was a faster way to travel than by spaceship, Luo Mo's answer instantly stunned Yi Shuihan. This Luo Mo was completely baffled!

Ji was so obsessed that he was willing to give up half of the Galo Star Region just to keep this stranger, who was an enemy not long ago.

When did I become so important to him? Yi Shuihan pondered to himself.

Could it be because I got annoyed by his questions, so I showed off my Eastern-style design concepts a little, projecting a few examples, and then he…

Thinking back to Luo Mo's somewhat manic and ecstatic appearance at the time, Yi Shuihan instantly realized that perhaps that was indeed the case.

"If the other people in the Galo Starfield knew that this half of the Galo Starfield could be obtained so easily, they would probably be working day and night to research and design it."

Staying in the Galo Star Region is naturally out of the question. Yi Shuihan doesn't even need to consider it. Let alone control of half of the Galo Star Region, even if the entire Galo Star Region were given to him, it wouldn't be acceptable.

Despite Yi Shuihan's unwavering determination, Luo Mo finally revealed a method that was even faster than using a spaceship.

The space jump device allows for spatial jumps as long as the body can withstand it. With this, Luo Mo can even travel instantly within the Gara Star Region.

This is clearly a technology of great strategic significance, controlled solely by Luo Mo, which makes him unafraid of any rebellion, because as soon as the news arrives, he can use the space jumper to suppress the rebellion at the fastest speed.

"Isn't it just a teleportation array?"

This was Yi Shuihan's first reaction. However, after fully understanding the space jump device, he realized it wasn't just a teleportation array. While ordinary teleportation arrays require coordinates for travel between two points, the space jump device was different; it didn't need coordinates, only a general direction.

It can perform space jumps and stop midway, and the landing point can be controlled.

This space jump device can be described as a super accelerator, except that the acceleration is a bit too incredible.

"His way of traveling is a bit like Weiss's!"

After testing spatial teleportation, Yi Shuihan couldn't help but think of the way Whis traveled with the God of Destruction.

There are only two space jumpers in the Galo Starfield, one of which is a spare. It is a very precious strategic asset that cannot be given away easily. In fact, to protect the secret of the space jumper, it is often better to destroy it than to let outsiders obtain it.

For this, Yi Shuihan paid with one hundred books in exchange for a space jump device. That's right, one hundred books, all about architecture and landscaping. When Luo Mo saw these books, he almost knelt down and licked them.

If Luo Mo hadn't undergone a complete 180-degree change in attitude after Yi Shuihan moved into the Demon Palace, becoming so accommodating to Yi Shuihan that Yi Shuihan felt embarrassed to forcibly take anything, Yi Shuihan probably wouldn't have used the book to exchange for it, but would have instead massacred the Demon Palace. So, Luo Mo was indeed a lucky fool.

Chapter 904, The Magic Mirror

魔镜

The space jump device is a round sphere that can accommodate two people. It is rather small and doesn't quite fit Yi Shuihan's aesthetic preferences. However, Yi Shuihan can't be too picky at this point, since it's just a temporary measure.

Once Yi Shuihan masters teleportation, the space jump device will become obsolete.

Luo Mo doesn't have planetary coordinates or star maps of the Northern Milky Way, so the only thing Yi Shuihan can do is keep making spatial jumps towards the Northern Milky Way. He doesn't even know where he'll end up in the Northern Milky Way.

Space jumps can cause some damage to the body. Luo Mo can only use space jumps continuously for a maximum of 10 minutes, but this is not a problem for Yi Shuihan at all. If he wants, he can use it forever.

Yi Shuihan's immense power allowed him to multitask. His main body was controlled inside the space jump device, leaving only a sliver of his consciousness behind. The rest of his consciousness was indulging in revelry with the girls in his personal world, thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Are you here already?"

Yi Shuihan, who was in his personal world, showed a slight change in expression. After explaining things to the girls, he left his personal world (Crystal Palace).

"Is this the Northern Milky Way?"

Yi Shuihan put away the space jump device and stood in the void.

The Milky Way is divided into east, west, north, and south. How to determine which place one is in is basically a common-sense question for planets that have entered the interstellar era, and Yi Shuihan naturally had it.

"Well, let's go check out that planet first. Maybe we can find a way to Earth or Atlas, or even Namek if all else fails."

With a "let's give it a try" attitude, Yi Shuihan arrived on this very primitive planet.

This unnamed planet is very small. Why do I say that? Because its total area is only a few million square kilometers, which is equivalent to a large country on Earth.

The people living on this planet are not much different from Earthlings, except that they have red skin and a single horn on their heads.

"So Earth really can only be called a garbage planet. Look, on this planet, the combat power of an ordinary person is about several dozen points. If they were on Earth, they would be a mini-superman."

Yi Shuihan suddenly felt an urge to cover his face. He wanted to vindicate Earth, even though this Earth was not actually his homeland.

Perhaps I should guide Earth onto the true path of cultivation and utterly crush these second-generation rich kids who rely on bloodlines for power.

The world is so wonderful, how can we let the second generation rule and dominate?

It took him about a second to find the location of the strongest person on the planet, and then another second to arrive in front of her.

Even Yi Shuihan himself was somewhat surprised that the strongest person on this planet was actually a woman. Of course, it wasn't that Yi Shuihan was actually a woman, but generally speaking, men have an easier time in terms of strength than women. For a woman to become the strongest, she must have spent more effort in cultivation.

Zari looked at the man in front of her with some curiosity. She had never seen a yellow-skinned person before, and he didn't have horns on his head.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Why be afraid!"

"My appearance was so sudden, don't you have any thoughts about it?"

"Oh right, how did you get here?"

"... "

From these few sentences of conversation, Yi Shuihan had a pretty good idea that the person in front of him had a different way of thinking than ordinary people. However, the other party's attitude actually made Yi Shuihan feel a little goodwill towards him.

"I'm a traveler who got lost, so I came to ask you for directions. Do you know where Namek is?"

I originally wanted to ask about Earth, but after thinking about it, I changed Earth to Namek. After all, Earth is too remote and its reputation in the universe is far less than that of Namek.

“Zari doesn’t know, but I can ask for you.”

Yi Shuihan had already prepared himself for failure in asking for directions, since the person in front of him didn't seem very reliable. However, Zari's words gave Yi Shuihan a glimmer of hope.

Under Yi Shuihan's watchful gaze, Zari took out a mirror and muttered, "Magic mirror, magic mirror, wake up and tell me where Namek is."

The mirror suddenly lit up, and after a sound like a power-on device, a skull appeared in the mirror.

"Hey, why aren't you saying anything? Is something wrong?"

Zari looked puzzled and kept patting the mirror, as if that would make it work.

And you know what? After being photographed a few times, the skull actually started talking.

“3 light-years to the southeast.”

In addition to the audio, a short video was also displayed, showing the scene between the planet where Yi Shuihan is currently located and Namek.

"Why does she give off a Snow White vibe? She's the one who kept shouting that she was the most beautiful queen."

Yi Shuihan was at a loss for words; there was something off about the magic mirror that Zari had brought out.

"But I finally achieved my goal, even though the process was a little strange."

Knowing the location of Namek, Yi Shuihan felt a little relieved, finally having a clearer goal.

"Could I borrow your magic mirror for a moment?"

"No, the Magic Mirror only listens to Zari."

Upon hearing that Yi Shuihan wanted to borrow the magic mirror, Zari immediately clutched it to her chest, looking at Yi Shuihan as if he were a thief.

"Forehead."

Why do I feel inexplicably guilty about bullying a child?

"Then could you ask Earth where Atlas is? Don't worry, I won't steal your magic mirror."

Zari looked at Yi Shuihan with suspicion, but finally lowered her guard under Yi Shuihan's sincere and open gaze.

"Great, that way I don't have to fight you anymore. I'm very strong. I've chased away all the people who came to steal the Magic Mirror before. Heh heh, I've been working very hard to cultivate in order to protect the Magic Mirror!"

Zari's words made Yi Shuihan's lips twitch, and his heart was in turmoil.

So that's why you became the strongest on the planet?

The same tapping happened again. The Magic Mirror lazily displayed the locations of Earth and Atlas, then went black.

"So, Earth is the farthest of the three, and Atlas is the closest. Therefore, it's decided then and there; let's go to Atlas first."

Chapter 905, Inherited Secret Techniques

Inherited secret techniques

It took Yi Shuihan two hours to reach Atla Star, which shows how powerful the space jumper is.

"You came!"

He teleported directly to the Grand Elder of Atla Star. The Grand Elder, as if he had expected this, said something unfathomable to Yi Shuihan.

"kindness!"

Yi Shuihan nodded slightly, then remained silent. This reaction, completely different from what was expected, caused a look of astonishment to flash in the eyes of the Grand Elder of Atla Star.

At this point, shouldn't you be asking me how I knew you were coming? Then I can start showing off and exaggerating my superiority.

Yi Shuihan looked at the Grand Elder in front of him with amusement, but did not speak first. He was determined to keep the other party quiet and wait it out.

The best way to deal with this kind of charlatan is not to follow their routine. Otherwise, one wrong step will lead to another, and you will unknowingly be led astray by them.

Yi Shuihan didn't believe that the guy in front of him could completely figure him out; at most, he could tell that he had an extraordinary background.

If the Grand Elder of Atla could see that Yi Shuihan possessed the power to instantly annihilate their entire clan, he would naturally treat Yi Shuihan with great courtesy.

If that's the case, then Yi Shuihan's request will be easily fulfilled.

"If you wish to learn our clan's secret techniques, I can take you there."

After holding out for three minutes, Atlas spoke first, and his words hit the nail on the head.

How did you know that was my purpose?

He asked, somewhat surprised.

"Respected powerful being, I think there is nothing about our planet Atla that you would want to covet. The only thing you might want to learn about is our clan's secret techniques. After all, our clan's combat strength is low, but we are very good at researching secret techniques. Some of these techniques can be useful to a powerful being like you."

After offering a small compliment to Yi Shuihan, the Grand Elder breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from Yi Shuihan's attitude, he knew that Yi Shuihan was not a truly evil person.

The Grand Elder had actually foreseen this several days prior, knowing that a powerful figure would arrive from Atla, a figure possessing power that Atla could not possibly resist. The fate of Atla rested on the shoulders of this individual's mere whim.

If Yi Shuihan asked the Grand Elder about the predicted time, he would know that it was precisely the time when he thought of Atla Star.

Following the Grand Elder, Yi Shuihan arrived at the place where the Atlasians stored their secret techniques. It was a cave with thousands of stone walls, each representing a different secret technique.

These stone walls were all carved by the people who created the secret technique. They usually only made the stone walls before they died, because making the stone walls required them to pour all their understanding of the secret technique into them.

Even if the creators of the secret techniques are the ones who made the stone walls using unique methods, the effectiveness of their techniques will be greatly reduced after the stone walls are made.

The stone walls created by later generations can even allow them to comprehend a deeper level of understanding than the secret techniques mastered by their creators, provided that the comprehenders have sufficient comprehension and mental fortitude.

Even the Atlasians can only master a maximum of five secret techniques in their lifetime, and the average Atlasian only has three.

Outsiders need to meet even stricter requirements to master the Atlas aliens' secret techniques. This is why it took Goku about a year to learn Instant Transmission in the original story, and he didn't even learn any other secret techniques. One reason was that Frieza was about to attack Earth, but another reason was that he knew he might not be able to learn other secret techniques even if he wanted to.

Of course, none of this was a problem for Yi Shuihan. His foundation was too good and his starting point was too high. Conditions that were difficult for others to achieve were as simple as eating and drinking for him, just like a college student suddenly turning back to learn elementary school math.

"Except for one secret technique that can only be passed down from generation to generation of elders, all the secret techniques of our clan are here. You can learn them at will, but I suggest that you choose only a few to learn."

The Grand Elder of Atla Star said.

"Where is teleportation?"

"Instant teleportation, is that right? Please follow me."

The elder led Yi Shuihan to a stone wall that looked no different from the others, and pointed at it, saying, "This is the teleportation you are looking for."

"All the stone walls here look the same. How can you tell what secret technique each stone wall represents?"
