Inside the Ophiuchus Palace, Li Yu slowly opened his eyes. The previous coldness in them was gone, replaced by a profound depth that seemed to see through life and death.
Before him stood Asclepius, the God of Medicine, his expression slightly grave!
No one struck by his Life Deprivation profundity had ever survived; Li Yu was the first.
Li Yu examined his hands, a knowing, light smile playing on his lips.
"So, this is the Eighth Sense!"
Humans are born with five senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Above these five senses are the Sixth Sense, Seventh Sense, and Eighth Sense!
The manifestation of awakening the Sixth Sense includes manipulating elements, precognition, flying, tunneling, psychokinesis, and telepathy, among other superpowers.
Awakening the Sixth Sense already qualifies one to become a Saint.
Awakening the Seventh Sense is the integration of the first six senses, allowing the physical body to break the speed of light, with immense power in every gesture.
The Seventh Sense is also the minimum requirement to become a Gold Saint and wear a Gold Cloth.
And the Eighth Sense is also known as Alaya-vijñana!
Having died once, the so-called Alaya-vijñana held no secrets for Li Yu.
After death, the human soul loses the first seven senses and gains the Eighth Sense, perceiving everything in a soul form!
Everyone possesses the Eighth Sense, but most only awaken it after death.
After Li Yu awakened the Eighth Sense in the Underworld, he was reset to his state ten seconds prior by the Hourglass of Time. Having experienced the state of death, the Eighth Sense became as natural as breathing to him.
Li Yu now understood that the Eighth Sense was not merely a boost in combat power, but a comprehension of the essence of life!
Breaking through to the Eighth Sense, while not providing a direct increase in attributes, granted him three miraculous abilities.
The first is: Store, the ability to store seeds of all dharmas within oneself.
The second is: What is Stored: influenced by the first seven consciousnesses, forming the power seeds of all dharmas.
The third is: Grasping Storage: also known as the Self-Storage.
It sounded profound, but Li Yu understood it without any difficulty.
Mainly because the attribute panel had already displayed these three abilities as direct prompts.
[The Hunter has unraveled the secret of life and death, gaining the ability of All-Dharma Comprehension. He can acquire all abilities from all reincarnation worlds through learning and plundering, with no more skill slot limitations!]
[The Hunter has gained the ability to freely adjust attributes. He can increase or decrease all of his attributes at any time, provided the total remains unchanged!]
[The Hunter has gained the ability of Soul-Body Integration. He can separate his spirit at any time, inject his soul into a divine artifact, and the loss of either his soul, spirit, or body will not cause the Hunter's death.]
Other Saints, upon awakening the Eighth Sense, only gain the ability to ignore the laws of the Underworld and enter the realm of the dead with their physical bodies.
However, the improvements Li Yu gained from the Eighth Sense were revolutionary.
The main reason was that, in addition to his four basic attributes, he also possessed Soul Power and Divinity.
His attribute panel had undergone a tremendous change; all attributes now had plus and minus signs next to them.
Li Yu suddenly noticed that there was also a plus and minus sign next to Divinity. He couldn't help but feel a hint of curiosity. Could Divinity also be converted into other attributes?
What would the conversion ratio between Divinity and basic attributes be?
Li Yu's heart stirred. He tried clicking the minus sign next to "Divinity," watching the value change from 30 to 29. Then, he lightly tapped the plus sign next to "Strength."
The next second, the Strength attribute value instantly surged from 11.53 million to 16.53 million. A surge of immense power flowed through his limbs, making him involuntarily clench his fists, his knuckles cracking crisply.
Instantly, Li Yu's eyes widened... he exclaimed internally, "Holy crap!"
Li Yu was speechless for a long time. One point of Divinity could actually be converted into five million basic attributes.
That is to say, if all thirty points of Divinity he possessed were converted into Strength, that would be one hundred and fifty million points of Strength attribute!
If he wished, any single attribute could instantly increase by fifteen times!
Even if he distributed these Divinity points evenly among the four attributes, each attribute could still exceed fifty million!
Only now did Li Yu understand why the Eighth Sense was also called the Domain of Gods.
An ordinary Saint, even if he awakened the Eighth Sense, could only gain the ability to enter the Underworld with his physical body.
But it was different for gods who possessed Divinity.
Once they awakened the Eighth Sense, they could use Divinity to freely enhance any of their attributes, instantly unleashing divine power far beyond that of ordinary people!
Li Yu's lips curved slightly. So that's how it is. Divinity is truly a good thing.
After awakening the Eighth Sense, the Divinity attribute could be seen as a modifier, allowing one to freely modify the five basic attributes, including Soul Power!
I'm sorry, Asclepius, but I'm going to play for real this round!
To prevent an imbalance caused by a single attribute being too strong, Li Yu evenly distributed his thirty points of Divinity among the four basic attributes.
After the distribution, Li Yu's values had changed to:
[Name: Li Yu (World Hunter 003)]
[Strength: 51.53 million]
[Agility: 51.48 million]
[Spirit: 51.29 million]
[Constitution: 52.20 million]
[Divinity: 0]
[Soul Power: 0]
[Cosmo: Eighth Sense Alaya-vijñana]... Asclepius saw that Li Yu made no move after reviving, but instead closed his eyes before him. A hint of anger welled up in his heart.
He was a demigod with infinite regeneration, and he understood this ability all too well.
There was no true eternal life in this world; even he, the God of Medicine, was no exception.
Regeneration abilities were divided into several levels.
The lowest level involved using items to achieve regeneration.
Once the power of the item was exhausted, the regeneration ability would also disappear.
Slightly better than the lowest level was infinite regeneration as long as vital organs, such as the brain and heart, were not damaged; this was also known as limited regeneration.
One level higher was infinite regeneration as long as the physical body was not completely annihilated, even if only a single cell survived.
The highest level was infinite regeneration as long as the soul remained intact.
And he, Asclepius, belonged to the third level.
His Cosmo was a perfect fusion of toxicity and regenerative power; as long as one cell survived, he could regenerate infinitely.
In his opinion, Li Yu's infinite regeneration must have been achieved through an item.
"Although I don't know how you revived, I'm sure you paid a hefty price."
Asclepius snorted, forcibly suppressing the unease in his heart, and the snake-shaped staff in his hand glowed green again.
"Li Yu, don't think you can defeat me by constantly reviving! Your revival ability will eventually run out, while I can kill you countless times!"
Asclepius didn't believe that a mortal could possess regenerative abilities surpassing his own, a God of Medicine.
Li Yu's revival must be reliant on some rare divine artifact; as long as he exhausted the opponent's divine artifact, victory would still be his.
More importantly, as long as he guarded the Ophiuchus Palace, Athena's reincarnation would soon die completely.
The tide is on my side!
Li Yu's lips curved slightly. He looked up, his face unperturbed.
"Asclepius, who gave you the illusion that you could easily defeat me?"
Li Yu extended a finger, seemingly slow but actually swift, and touched Asclepius's chest.
The next second, a transparent crystal, like a dazzling diamond, slowly spread across the Ophiuchus Gold Cloth!
