Chapter 477: Chapter 299: Fly! To Greater Heights! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2

His perception was still clear and far-reaching; even amid high-speed movement, every detail of the surroundings remained vivid.

Although the buildings, trees, and even the contours of distant mountain ranges seemed to have been stretched into streaks that whizzed by before his eyes,

the details of each were imprinted in his mind the instant they passed by.

He could feel every inch of muscle tensing and relaxing, each breath’s depth, and the subtle changes produced when his Spiritual Position interacted with the surrounding air.

Chen Yun realized that this speed was not merely a physical movement but also a perfect fusion of mind and body.

He felt as if he had become a ray of light, traversing between heaven and Earth, with all worries and constraints cast aside.

Although now he was very high, and the speed was very fast,

he was not afraid at all.

After all, the purple sandalwood Gundam Mecha needed the protection of a Spiritual Position, but he did not.

Now, even if he were to fall from this height of several hundred or thousand kilometers, it wouldn’t be a problem; his defense could ensure he remained unharmed.

By comparison, he even felt somewhat slow.

He tried to increase his speed.

And at the same time, he controlled the vibration of the air to accompany himself with a song, enjoying the interesting sensations brought by the ultimate speed.

Of course,

since his speed had surpassed the speed of sound,

the music could only chase after him, and regardless of how he adjusted the sound source to the front, the speed exceeding the speed of sound still made for a rather poor listening experience.

Therefore,

he slightly reduced his speed and began trying more complex changes.

With continuous adjustments to his Spiritual Position, Chen Yun started attempting more complex maneuvers—rolling, circling, and even nearly vertical dives and climbs.

Every change brought a new experience; he felt as if he were dancing with the air, each turn painting a flowing canvas.

However, even in such extreme speed and considerable excitement, Chen Yun still maintained absolute calmness and focus.

As the flight progressed, Chen Yun gradually adapted to this extraordinary method of movement.

At that moment, he truly became a part of the sky, and the world around him began to blur in his eyes, with only that energy stemming from his heart remaining clear and tangible.

Chen Yun eventually stopped.

He hovered silently in the sky, overlooking the world below.

At this moment, he deeply felt an unprecedented sense of freedom and control.

He knew,

from now on, the sky was no longer a limit but a brand new stage.

Chen Yun looked down.

His gaze swept across the land below.

The sight before him was astonishing.

He was located above the Loess Plateau, a region famous for its unique landscape.

From this altitude, the winding Yellow River resembled a golden ribbon meandering through the vast expanse of loess, glinting with shimmering waves under the sunlight.

The terrain of the Loess Plateau was rugged and crisscrossed with ravines, like the wrinkles of the Earth, bearing the history of countless years.

Every inch of this land carried a profound historical and cultural weight, and at this moment, all of it was vividly displayed before Chen Yun.

The slanting sunlight cast a warm golden layer over the land, adding vitality to the otherwise desolate scenery.

The distant mountains were layered and distinct under the light, stacking up to where the skyline met the horizon and gradually fading from view.

Chen Yun’s Spiritual Position maintained his hovering state, allowing him to fix his hair while leisurely appreciating everything.

He could almost feel the soul of this ancient land beneath his feet, and the stories of the people who had once lived here seemed to whisper in the wind, recounting the past.

At this moment, not only did Chen Yun experience the thrill and freedom of flight, but he also felt a harmonious and beautiful coexistence with nature.

He took a deep breath.

The air was filled with the scent of earth and vegetation, the most primitive aroma of the land.

Chen Yun thought this first flight felt great.

He couldn’t help but recall the last experience that could tentatively be called flying.

The reason this was considered the first was that the so-called flight from before didn’t really count.

That time, it was the seventh Evolution.

It had amplified most abilities, including physical strength, which is standard in every Evolution.

The real highlights were usually the new abilities that came with each Evolution.

The first slumber Evolution brought Super Smell. The second slumber Evolution brought Super Hearing. The third slumber Evolution introduced Killing Intent and spiritual power (with accompanying Telekinesis and Emotion Perception). The fourth slumber Evolution gave the basic version of electromagnetic wave perception. The fifth slumber Evolution improved thermal sight and advanced electromagnetic wave perception. The sixth slumber Evolution added Emotion Stimulation and super visual-range perception...

And the seventh time, it was Soul Emergence.

This constituted a part of the Linked Skill "Divine Travel" that Chen Yun often used later, which, when not activated in conjunction with super visual-range perception,

allowed for free flight.

As a spiritual entity, he could fly freely within the radius of his spirit’s coverage, centered on his physical body.

Of course, such a state of flying can hardly be called flying.

Not to mention the lack of sensation from wind or the possibility of generating a sonic boom, which could seem bland and lacking in excitement.

It was clear from the distance restriction alone

that this was at best akin to flying a kite of one’s spirit, hardly qualifying as actual flight.

But now,

it was undeniably genuine flight.

Aside from the fact that the wind was blowing too strongly against him, there were no other problems.

However, facing the strong wind was actually a part of the genuine flavor of flying; otherwise, how could one experience the sensation of flying in the flesh?

Breaking the sound barrier with one’s flesh—it’s the epitome of masculine romance!

As for concerns like hair getting disheveled or clothes getting damaged,

they could all be solved by the Spiritual Position.

Once equipped with the Spiritual Position, not only would one avoid having their hairstyle blown awry or clothes damaged,

Chen Yun could even ensure that upon landing after the flight, not even a single fold would mar his clothes.

Pondering thus,

Chen Yun couldn’t help but look up again.

Last time he looked up, he was on the ground preparing to take off.

Now,

he was floating more than a kilometer high in the air, thanks to the Spiritual Position.

Staring at the horizon above him, his heart suddenly sparked with an idea.

Having come this far, why not...

Musing,

a glint flickered in Chen Yun’s eyes.

With the ability to fly, who wouldn’t yearn for even greater heights?

But what was the point of flying at such a low altitude? How much better could it be than taking a great leap?

Chen Yun still remembered the words his younger brother, Chen Yiming, had once said to him.

He had asked Chen Yiming, "If you were as powerful as a superhuman, what would you want to do?"

Without a second thought, Chen Yiming had replied, "Of course I’d want to fly up to the sky to see just how high it goes."

"To fly to the sky and see how high it goes."

This phrase was more than literal; it symbolized the courage to explore all that is unknown and the desire to use one’s strength to satisfy curiosity.

It represented a yearning to test the limits of one’s strength, to see the furthest extent of life’s evolution, to see if one was the strongest...

Most of what Chen Yun aspired to do in the future could be summarized by this sentence.

And at this moment,

he had a chance to personally fulfill part of that phrase—the literal meaning of actually going to see how high the sky was.

No matter how many meanings that sentence held, the most superficial one was clearly a part of it, or perhaps it could be said to be the starting point of that sentiment.

Chen Yun knew that Earth was a planet,

and that the boundary between the atmosphere that symbolizes the sky and outer space was roughly around one hundred kilometers.

He was also aware that beyond the sky lay the boundlessly deep outer space.

But,

"I still want to see it for myself."

Chen Yun murmured, a hint of a smile and anticipation curling the corners of his mouth.

Immediately, he accelerated without hesitation,

shooting vertically towards greater heights!

To break through gravity’s limits with one’s flesh and fly into space, that is the true romance!

Today, Chen Yun

just wanted to see how high the sky really is?!
