Chapter 1229: Chapter 888: Inner Heaven and Earth

"Have you been researching potion crafting lately?" Ahn Qi looked at the pile of items Zheng Yichen had sent over, unable to suppress her growing curiosity. This event had occurred a week ago.

Back then, Zheng Yichen had delivered a heap of ’potions.’ Though their appearance was unremarkable, they were indeed potent. Even though Zheng Yichen claimed they were failures, the Ahn family could confirm the powerful effects those potions possessed after evaluation.

After all, the Ahn family now had a complete system of Magic, along with accumulated knowledge from the past, making it easy to appraise those creations.

To the Ahn family, these weren’t failures at all. They had no idea what standards Zheng Yichen was using to assess those potions.

Initially, he focused solely on the Magic Potion, but now the types of potions included medicinal pills.

"Yes, I’m planning to master some new skills."

"Do you need me to collect materials for you?" Ahn Qi asked after accepting the potions Zheng Yichen brought over. Alchemy seemed to resemble research, consuming significant resources.

Achieving success in this field undoubtedly required a great deal of practice, and Zheng Yichen didn’t appear to possess exceptional talent in this regard.

"Not really... Hmm, but thank you. The herbs I need are quite diverse; any type will do."

Zheng Yichen initially wanted to decline but reconsidered and accepted the offer.

Ahn Qi smiled and said, "I’ll personally deliver the materials to you later."

She then contacted Ahn Longling, informing her about the matter. Collecting herbs wasn’t difficult; the environment in Misty City World had been balanced, though many things needed time to undergo qualitative changes.

Yet, newly formed entities were influenced by the altered environment. Since the environment had become more advanced, things that were previously hard to cultivate became easier, including those herbs.

Wild herbs weren’t necessarily better than scientifically cultivated ones, but this only applied to some herbs. In high environments, many herbs possessed Special Power, making those areas challenging for other herbs to grow.

Since Zheng Yichen needed ’diverse’ herbs, it was easier to complete the task.

The next day, several trucks arrived near Zheng Yichen’s residence...

Seeing these trucks, Zheng Yichen’s lips twitched slightly, without saying much, he accepted the herbs that Ahn Qi sent over.

He was indeed learning new techniques recently. It was an idea that emerged after he opened his inner Heaven and Earth.

The inner Heaven and Earth successfully opened more than half a month ago in a natural course. After mastering the inner Heaven and Earth, Zheng Yichen could definitively confirm the correlation between the manifestation of the inner Heaven and Earth mental image and Phenomenon manifestation.

In a super degraded version, the indigenous people of the Ancient Venerable World indeed inherited the power of the Ancient Venerable, which was unsurprising, as the Ancient Venerable was the World Creator of that realm.

Once the inner Heaven and Earth was opened, Zheng Yichen gained a new understanding of this power. What was called the mental image was the scenery of the inner Heaven and Earth, varying from person to person. Some people’s mental images were worlds of flames, others were worlds of frost.

According to the records in the dynasty’s treasure typologies, the more comprehensive the mental image presented by the inner Heaven and Earth, the stronger it was. However, perfecting the inner Heaven and Earth was extremely challenging, and possessing even one of many elements was an outstanding feat.

After all, opening the inner Heaven and Earth required True Immortal level, and becoming a True Immortal already filtered out most people in the world.

Not to mention the mental image of the inner Heaven and Earth.

Yet Zheng Yichen skipped over the usual developmental stages when creating the mental image by using Virtual Genesis for simulation.

He used Oblivion and Genesis Power to simulate and perfect the mental image, first erasing all traces with Oblivion, then restarting with Genesis. These two steps used a week of Zheng Yichen’s time.

The eradication by Oblivion was swift, accomplished on the spot. The hassle was the subsequent Genesis, luckily Zheng Yichen had previously experimented with enhancing Oblivion impression in the Virtual World.

He even gained some understanding of Genesis Power from this, despite its incomplete source in Oblivion; it was Genesis nonetheless.

After perfecting it, Zheng Yichen’s inner Heaven and Earth mental image became the Deluge Chaos. Originally, Zheng Yichen aimed for a universe, but what eventually formed was a celestial and terrestrial Deluge Chaos.

However, from Zheng Yichen’s perspective, this could be considered a ’universe.’

After all, the sky of the Deluge Chaos was filled with stars, their distances resembling the distribution of stars in the universe.

Zheng Yichen concluded the cause was likely his conditions when creating the mental image using Genesis, which naturally required material.

These materials were from himself. The myriad forces he possessed played a role, including the fishing rod incorporating the World Tree seed.

The emergence of an environment akin to Deluge Chaos was likely influenced by the World Tree. In Zheng Yichen’s inner Heaven and Earth mental image, the World Tree was akin to Mount Buzhou.

Changing perspectives to view the distant World Tree from the sky’s stars, it appeared like a cosmic nebula, like the Pillar of World Creation.

And the Pillar of World Creation was merely a few branches of the World Tree.

The World Tree takes root on ’Deluge Chaos’, spreading across the sky like the universe, while beneath the ancient earth lies a deeper surge of darkness, manifesting his own extraordinary abilities within inner Heaven and Earth.

The surging darkness exists at an extremely deep level beneath the earth, far from even the underworld and resembling a bedrock of surging darkness, belonging to a depth unreachable by excavation.

If there were anything that could dig.

The inner Heaven and Earth mental image is considered a personal integration of strength, only after integration does it become inner Heaven and Earth, thus Zheng Yichen is not surprised by these things, instead he can see his essence more clearly.

Otherwise, Zheng Yichen would be wondering what kind of thing he made.

As for the exaggerated extent shown by inner Heaven and Earth, consider it a big dream, in dreams, all sorts of absurd things can happen; inner Heaven and Earth are similar.

According to records, other True Immortals have inner Heaven and Earth mental images that are boundless worlds of flame, worlds of ice that freeze everything, merely as manifestations in inner Heaven and Earth.

Moreover, inner Heaven and Earth cannot be extracted; external influences are the manifestation of the inner Heaven and Earth mental image, the manifestation of the mental image greatly differs from the internal expression of inner Heaven and Earth.

Of course, compared to the inner Heaven and Earth mental images recorded in the annals, Zheng Yichen’s own inner Heaven and Earth mental image remains unprecedented, the pioneering of an inner Heaven and Earth mental image is not a matter of choice, but what kind of conditions the pioneer possesses determines what kind of mental image can be developed. Zheng Yichen has a vast array of power types, reaching a very high level.

He also possesses the power of Alien Phenomenon manifestation, easily replenishing various lacking powers through this manifestation, all of which led Zheng Yichen to create a rather peculiar cosmic deluge chaos.

Although his inner Heaven and Earth is immensely rich, it inherently possesses the common characteristic of inner Heaven and Earth—vastness.

Inside inner Heaven and Earth, there are flowers and plants, which belong to the manifestation of the Life Power part possess by Zheng Yichen, yet no living beings exist within, apart from himself.

In his inner Heaven and Earth, the only living being is himself.

Even beings like Lilith cannot appear in Zheng Yichen’s inner Heaven and Earth; Zheng Yichen can extend an invitation to her, but she cannot enter.

After opening the inner Heaven and Earth, there’s an advantage of establishing a connection with Divine Domain.

In general, beings with inner Heaven and Earth find it difficult to possess Divine Domain, and those with Divine Domain find it challenging to open inner Heaven and Earth, but Dusk makes it possible.

Inner Heaven and Earth mental images must penetrate the environment to manifest, whereas Divine Domain directly covers a part of the environment; when both powers reside within one person, the mental image immediately manifests, and the environment covered by Divine Domain doesn’t require penetration by the inner Heaven and Earth mental image, with Divine Domain itself amplifying the external expression of the mental image.

The combination of the two, complementing each other greatly in expression, made Zheng Yichen feel he could preemptively lead a carefree life.

Dusk’s tasks? Really, just go in the morning and you can go home to eat and sleep in the afternoon.

The inner Heaven and Earth mental image better displays the essence of inherent powers, optimizing the forces of individuals with inner Heaven and Earth.

Zheng Yichen cast a Fireball; it had the same nature as one cast by an opponent, but the same nature of Zheng Yichen’s Fireball was affected by the independence of inner Heaven and Earth.

Though both are Fireballs, others’ Fireballs are affected by Fire type rules of relevance. If some being erases fire-related rules in the environment, the opponent’s power cannot break through and produce anything related to fire.

But Zheng Yichen’s Fireball remains unaffected, or its level of influence is very low.

If the enemy erases or modifies the Fire type rules in the current environment, the Fire type rules carried by Zheng Yichen’s Fireball stem from his inner Heaven and Earth, unrelated to the current environment.

Even if it appears as a violation in the present environment, capturing this ’fugitive’ would require time, and this ’fugitive’ is very formidable, so it’s impossible to catch.

Inner Heaven and Earth, besides greatly enhancing individual power, makes optimization equally important, let alone the fact that inner Heaven and Earth can generate power autonomously, significantly extending individual blue bars, it accelerates mana points regeneration dramatically.

However, through Zheng Yichen’s testing, such internal circulation works well for forces like Magic power, Mana, Spiritual power, but not for Zheng Yichen’s Inner Strength.

Inner Strength is related to his physical body, and the forces like flame and ice he uses are conversions of inherent internal forces.

Inner Strength is not the strength of Heaven and Earth, hence inner Heaven and Earth doesn’t provide enhancement for Inner Strength recovery.

However, with inner Heaven and Earth, Zheng Yichen technically has a new blue bar, allowing him to use other types of power without consuming Inner Strength, physical strength, and other internal forces.

This blue bar, although not infinite, has extremely fast recovery speed, maintaining output within a certain scope, allowing unlimited endurance before his individual collapse.

Attempting Alchemy also started as he became familiar with inner Heaven and Earth, Alchemy, and Artifact Refining require more control of force, Zheng Yichen engaged in such trials to increase his mastery of inner Heaven and Earth.

The utilization of inner Heaven and Earth’s power differed somewhat from previous usage of other forces, he needed to adapt thoroughly, beginning from precision-required operations was quite fitting.

Hence, Ahn Qi received a large batch of magic potions or medicinal pills evaluated as unqualified by Lilith.

Qualification is sixty points, Lilith’s rating is stricter, demanding eighty points.
