Chapter 1451 The Threshold of Level 8

Chapter 1451 The Threshold of the Eighth Level

"To achieve my goal, I need to become stronger."

After Lu stepped into the world of level seven, he was surprised to find that the distance between himself and other professionals of the same level had actually been greatly shortened.

Before, it could be said that Lu had no problem fighting against opponents at the second level. Even when he was at the fourth or fifth level, he had the experience of fighting against opponents at the sixth or even seventh level.

Before, killing the third and fourth level players who were almost at the same stage was as easy as killing a chicken. It was not difficult at all.

But now, he had to be cautious even when facing a seventh-level warrior, and when facing any eighth-level warrior, he had to be mentally prepared for the possibility of defeat even if he tried his best.

None of the old-school eighth-level warriors were easy to deal with. The original advantages of various software and hardware became less obvious, and what still gave him a headache was that it seemed difficult for him to gain a short-term advantage in the rule-level civil war.

"Besides the fact that you are a production-oriented life-support professional, the professionals who can reach this stage are all geniuses that are seen once every ten or a hundred years in the eyes of others, and they are all legends in their hometowns."

Those who can reach the seventh level and find a way out from nowhere are no longer weak.

Then for the eighth level, those big guys who have advanced one step further from the existences in the clouds, it is even more impossible for there to be weak ones.

Ordinary combat professions are slightly weaker, and Lu Ping'an now encounters mostly seventh- and eighth-order life professionals in this world. Their strength often depends on their "production chain" and "warehouse reserves". They can easily take out multiple rule-level combat powers, and there are basically no parallel rule-level ones.

".I actually felt like I wasn't strong enough."

The current Lu could probably be regarded as a pseudo eighth-level fighter by the people in this world, but in fact, he was still some distance away from the real eighth level.

"What is the eighth level?"

Although he had defeated Lu, who was at the eighth level, he was still a little confused.

Rank is the degree of evolution of an individual. The "ranks" of different lives vary greatly. When Lu Ping'an stepped into the seventh level, it also meant that he had lost his way forward.

“Everyone’s eighth level is different”

If the seventh level is completely inhuman, then the eighth level is "not even human". The advice given by the big cat at this time is quite subtle.

"The only common point is 'scaling', that is, the plural rule of clustering. But this is already inferring the process from the result. Most people advance only because it is a 'qualitative change'."

There are still some "standard professions" in the seventh level, but all the professionals in the eighth level are pioneers who have walked their own paths.

It is worth mentioning that eighth-level professionals and eighth-level creatures are two different things. There are too many professionals who only possess one or two "golden middle-level (eighth-level)" abilities. This is why Lu Ping'an feels that masters cannot distance themselves from each other in battle.

The attacks of both sides were extremely strong, and their health bars were extremely thick, so it basically became a protracted war, which was naturally not as exciting as before.

"My evolutionary chain seems to have moved"

In the past six months, Lu Ping'an has actually been making up for his shortcomings, or perhaps it can be said that he is laying the foundation, but his progress has always been quite subtle.

When he hasn't found the right direction, he can only consolidate and "review" honestly.

Lu Pingan could understand what the big cat said. In his eyes of truth, the eighth level and the seventh level were not on the same level.

"They are all independent 'planets', all of which are quasi-high-dimensional beings with astonishing mass, enough to distort the surrounding gravity. If the seventh-level is the moon, the eighth-level is the sun."

Although the two are always put on a par with each other, in fact the "data gap" between the two is ridiculously large.

Lu Ping'an had some guesses before, perhaps the eighth level was the strong man who found the existence that integrated multiple "rules" by himself.

To be more precise, it is those complex rules that form a complete set of self-circulating and internally coordinated mechanisms, allowing all gears to work towards a goal.

Those ninth-order quasi-gods for which he had evidence were the most obvious evolved forms.

"The seventh level is a person, the eighth level is a village, and the ninth level is a 'country' consisting of countless villages, cities, and people."

This was the most appropriate understanding Lu Ping'an had found. However, he had enough chips in his hand but didn't know how to form his own village, let alone a country.

"Don't be anxious, the road ahead is safe. You'd better lay a solid foundation first, it's too early for you to think about this." The big cat's previous advice was correct.

Because whether it is to form a village or a country, sufficient "components" are needed, and Lu Ping'an was just a bachelor of the seventh level at the time, so it was too early to say anything.

Rebuilding "transactions" and "industrial chains" in this world is Lu Ping'an's expansion and attempt to follow his own rules, but the results are quite subtle.

Although the big cat said so, considering the ever-escalating battlefield and the increasingly powerful enemies

"They won't wait for me to grow up. My wealth and status are on the table. It's hard for me to hide. I'm too big to hide anymore."

Lu Ping'an didn't want to wait until the quasi-god blocked the door before finding reasons to explain the several characteristics and abilities he currently possessed. Even the quasi-god would be tempted if he knew about it.

"Don't worry. The instinct of destiny's evolution will reveal it to you. When you touch a certain opportunity, you will feel that 'this is it'."

Big Cat's original persuasion has become a reality today.

When Lu Ping'an completed the fusion with the little flame again and transformed into a "fire man", looking at the busy battlefield cleaners below, he could feel countless visions.

"He has become stronger"

"What's going on? Evolution through just one battle?"

The two eighth-level ones who were still cleaning up the harvest were surprised at his progress. This was not a simple increase in strength, but an evolution at the biological level.

Lu Ping'an responded with a smile, but didn't say much.

He understood a little bit, what he needed.

"To build a village, we must first have a village chief."

In Lu Ping'an's evolutionary journey, "the rules of communication and transaction" are the top priority.

Administrative level, or biological level, is the foundation of everything.

As a human being, Lu Ping'an is at the top of the food chain, but among rule-level creatures, he is just a cub.

The prerequisite for a rule-level professional is a rule-level creature. Lu Ping'an's body (humanoid interface) is too weak to support its evolution.

When he shared the "life level" of the little flame, the original evolutionary gears began to turn again.

He understood a little bit. He thought that the first step on his road to advancement was to evolve his magical pets to above the rule level, share their evolutionary achievements, and complete his own life level leap.

"Isn't this the traditional way of playing as a beast tamer?"

This step seems to have determined that Lu Ping'an is moving further and further away from the traditional gardener.

Perhaps, from the very beginning, he could not follow the path of a traditional gardener like Mr. Liu who abandoned his body.

However, it is impossible for him to rely solely on his physical body to control the entire courtyard like Big Cat and Kui Wang. No, all the places where life points flow will be his "body".

"Let's do it step by step. First, upgrade the babies and complete the basic qualitative change."
