Chapter 2: The Fall of Genius

A star that has just risen in the Blue Source Empire's army has thus become dim and devoid of light

In the year 13675 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, Yun Feng, who had survived the four Death Prisons, was recruited into the elite Wolf Killing Legion under the command of the Northwest King of the Northwest Star Domain of the Blue Source Empire

The quality of the spirit determines the achievements and training speed of mental power Nine strands of fourth-level spirit indicate that Yun Feng's training speed of mental power will reach a terrifying pace

A fourth-level civilization warship, refined solely by mental power, can only compare to a fifth-level civilization warship in terms of defense and attack. However, in other aspects, particularly flexibility, it cannot match a standard fifth-level civilization warship. Once infused with spirit, a warship possesses a soul, significantly enhancing its flexibility. At that point, it can truly rival a fifth-level civilization warship of the same level.

In the year 13678 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, in May, Yun Feng returned to the Karos Prison to undergo the fifth Death Cage, successfully passing it, and his name was inscribed in the annals of Karos Prison

... ...

There are nine levels of spirit, with Level 1 being the weakest and Level 9 the strongest. The strength of the spirit actually represents different levels of life. The evolution of life throughout the universe is, in fact, the evolution of the spirit

And Yunfeng's spirit is at level 4! Moreover, it is a rare nine strands!

In this grand interstellar era, the importance of mental power is almost self-evident, as it is closely related to every aspect of life, including clothing, food, housing, and transportation. This is an age dominated by technology, as well as an age of mental power, where various technological products require the assistance and operation of mental power. This is especially true for weapons, mechs, and warships in warfare

In the year 13675 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, in November, Yun Feng carried out his third mission as the captain of a standard Level 47 Silver Wing ship, successfully shooting down two enemy warships of the same class, thereby achieving two standard captain Level 1 military merits

And the facts were also proven in the Carlos prison

As the level of Yunfengling decreases, the original levels of mental power continue to decline

In the year 13675 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, Yun Feng began executing his first mission, pursuing a group of scattered interstellar pirates. During the mission, Yun Feng, in the capacity of a mech soldier, achieved three first-class military merits.

Even an individual's achievements in physical skills are related to the strength of their mental power. The higher the mental power, the greater the assistance in practicing physical skills. This is also the reason why Yun Feng's personal strength rapidly increased after the awakening of his mental talent

However, the spirit is nourished by mental power, and the level of the spirit determines the highest achievements that a person's mental power can reach throughout their life. Moreover, the level of mental power is closely related to the growth of the spirit that it nourishes

The power of one plus one is not merely two; under the command of Yun Feng, eight Level 47 spirit ships, in mutual cooperation, possess a might far exceeding that of eight Level 57 ordinary warships from a Level 5 civilization. Yun Feng's name began to rise in prominence within the Wolf Killing Legion, elevating his status from an ordinary captain to the leader of an entire army

In the year 13676 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, in March, Yun Feng once again infused a portion of his spirit into the second 47th-level divine ship, thus possessing two 47th-level spirit ships.

The wonders of life extend far beyond this. When an ordinary divine ship is destroyed by the enemy, the spiritual energy integrated within it is also annihilated. However, a spiritual ship can, when faced with danger, swiftly withdraw the spirit embedded within it from the warship, traversing space in an incredible manner to return to its owner's body, making it difficult to intercept. The warship may be damaged, but the spirit remains intact. As long as the spiritual energy is restored, a new spiritual ship can be fused once again.

The warship may be damaged, but the spirit remains intact. As long as the spiritual energy is restored, a new spiritual ship can be fused once again.

In the year 13679 of the Blue Source Empire, in February, a squad of advanced spiritual ships of Level 4 civilization, led by Yun Feng, was dispatched to a special location to carry out a mission. The mission ended in failure, resulting in only five out of thirty-two Level 4 spiritual ships remaining, and only six out of eighteen team members survived. Captain Yun Feng sustained serious injuries, and all eight of his spiritual ships were destroyed, along with the eight spiritual essences integrated within them, which were also completely annihilated. Due to the simultaneous destruction of the eight spiritual essences, the only remaining essence within Yun Feng's body was affected, causing it to be injured and drop to Level 3.

However, although the spirit ship is miraculous, it requires at least one spirit to reside within it; otherwise, the body will perish. Therefore, only those who possess two or more spirits can refine a spirit ship

The spirit is the core of life, representing a person's innate spiritual talent

In the year 13676 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, Yun Feng participated in the mission to eliminate pirates... He was awarded a second-class fleet captain-level first-class merit.

In the year 13676 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, Yun Feng successfully infused a portion of his spirit into the refined 47th-level divine ship, promoting it to a more powerful "spirit ship." He also successfully refined another 47th-level silver-winged warship, becoming a senior captain capable of simultaneously commanding one 47th-level spirit ship and one 47th-level divine ship, overseeing a fleet of one hundred ordinary 47th-level silver-winged warships.

Soldiers possessing more than two spirits are indeed a valuable asset for a nation and its army

Mental strength is of utmost importance

A genius youth rises like a comet, only to fall like a shooting star

The name Yun Feng began to enter the attention of high-ranking figures in the Blue Source Empire, attracting the gaze of some individuals, and even secretly admired by many noble young ladies who were aware of him

The spirit of an ordinary person consists of only one essence! It is rare to find individuals with two essences, and those who possess two essences along with books can be considered exceptionally gifted. However, Yun Feng possesses nine essences! Having nine essences signifies that Yun Feng's spirit is nine times that of an ordinary person of the same level

The spirit is the core of life, the essence of existence. Integrating the spirit into a battleship is equivalent to becoming a life form, possessing intelligence. This not only significantly enhances its agility but also allows it to operate independently without a master. The power of the spirit ship surpasses that of the divine ship. However, to integrate the spirit into the battleship, one must first refine the battleship with mental energy, transforming it into a divine ship

Awakening the spirit, refining the mind, nurturing the spiritual power! This is the process of life growth

In the year 13676 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, May, ... ...

Therefore, the postnatal development of spiritual beings is extremely limited; for ordinary individuals, the level they are born into is almost the level they will maintain throughout their lives. The evolution of life levels is not an easy matter. It is an exceedingly long process that requires the accumulation of generation after generation. Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes; individuals with higher life levels generally produce offspring with higher life levels than those with lower life levels, although there may occasionally be exceptions. The outcome of these exceptions may be slightly lower or slightly higher; if it is significantly higher, it signifies a successful evolution of life levels. Naturally, there is also the possibility of the opposite occurring, where the results over generations lead to a continuous degradation of life levels.

In the year 13677 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, Yun Feng retained only a single spirit within his body and successfully fused it with the eighth spirit to create the eighth 47-level spirit ship, becoming a super captain with eight 47-level spirit ships

Insufficient mental power cannot activate the complex programs of advanced mechas and warships. Without mental power, many technological products cannot be operated. Losing mental power renders even the most advanced civilization akin to a tiger that has lost its claws and fangs

However, on hetushu.com, there is a saying: "A tree that stands out in the forest is bound to be blown down by the wind." The brilliance of Yun Feng has aroused the envy of many.

This is the uniqueness of the Spirit Ship

In ancient times, the level of human life was not high, and their spirituality could not even reach the first level. No life form would awaken, and such existence was very weak, with a lifespan of less than a hundred years. When some individuals reached the first level of spirituality and evolved to the first tier of life, their lifespan approached a thousand years. Those who reached the second level of spirituality and evolved to the second tier of life had a lifespan of two thousand years. Subsequently, for each higher level of life evolution, an additional thousand years would be added to their lifespan. Ultimately, those who reached the ninth level of spirituality and evolved to the ninth tier of life could attain a lifespan of nine thousand years.

The Blue Source Empire is merely a Level 4 civilization. The ruling power of this civilization primarily consists of individuals with a spiritual level of 4, but such individuals are rare; more commonly, there are those with a spiritual level of 3 or even 2.

At such a young age, to have achieved so much

In the 12th month of the year 13675 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, Yun Feng consumed a rare treasure exchanged with military achievements, resulting in a significant enhancement of his mental strength. He successfully refined a Level 47 Silver Wing Ship, upgrading it to a more powerful operational and defensive vessel known as the "Level 47 Divine Ship," and became the captain of a fleet commanding ten ordinary Level 47 Silver Wing Warships. In the same month, Yun Feng participated in a mission to eliminate a group of interstellar pirates, earning a Level 1 military achievement equivalent to that of a third-class fleet captain.

In the year 13676 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, in April, Yun Feng ... ...

Everyone possesses a spirit, though its strength varies among individuals. The strength of this spirit signifies the level of mental power one can achieve in the future

In the year 13679 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, the weakened Yun Feng retired

Yun Feng demonstrated his strength, allowing everyone to see that he is a super genius

With the title of the Grim Reaper spreading, Yun Feng's spirit and talent in the Department of Literature were also revealed to the public, which turned out to be an extremely rare nine strands of fourth-level spirit! As soon as this information was released, it immediately shocked many people

Mental power can refine all items of the same level, and once infused with mental power, the quality of the item will be significantly enhanced, which is a unique ability of mental power. The fourth-level civilization warship refined by Yun Feng with mental power has defensive capabilities comparable to those of a fifth-level civilization warship of the same type. The difference between a first-level civilization and a fifth-level civilization is vast in terms of technological power. In the case where there are not many fourth-level civilization warships, ordinary fifth-level civilization warships can almost sweep through. A fourth-level civilization warship refined by Yun Feng with mental power, after becoming a divine ship, is considered a trump card within a fourth-level civilization.

In the year 13675 of the New Calendar of the Blue Source Empire, in October, Yun Feng carried out his second mission to eliminate a group of interstellar pirates who were robbing merchant convoys in the Northwest Star Region. As the captain of a mech battalion, he achieved three first-class military merits during the mission.

At the age of only twenty-two, he is already the owner of eight Level 47 spirit ships. In just a few years, he has achieved remarkable accomplishments, established a fearsome reputation, and successfully passed through the fifth death cell of the notorious Karros Prison, which instills dread in all who hear of it

Since Yun Feng began to lead an army, the name of the Grim Reaper has gradually spread throughout the entire Northwest Star Region. After Yun Feng's fleet eliminated various pirate groups, the security in the Northwest Star Region of the Blue Source Empire rapidly improved, and countless pirate factions were terrified by the name of the Grim Reaper

There is a saying that all things possess a soul, and the soul is the true essence of life. The spirit is the core of the soul, the core of life. The soul consists of two parts: one is the spirit, and the other is the soul. The spirit is the essence of life, while the soul represents mental strength. The soul arises from the spirit, the spirit is innate, and the soul is a product of later accumulation.

Interstellar pirates are a unique product of this grand interstellar era, posing the greatest obstacle to the maintenance of public order by many civilizations and regimes
