My Ability Is Role-playing

Chapter 573 - 567: Play Feedback! Red Lotus Secret Manual!

"I’ve mentioned before, in the vast cosmos, extraordinary beings are as numerous as fish swimming down a river. Throughout countless years, many extraordinarily gifted individuals have taken Inner Qi as the foundation of the Extraordinary, treating it as the core energy source."

[Tomb] looked at Ma Ran with a complex expression and said heavily: "But..."

"No one has ever been able to break through the boundary of a Middle-Ranked God; they are all stuck at this level."

At this point, [Tomb] said earnestly: "This is a fundamental law of the cosmos, basic principles, just like the wave-particle duality of light, the law of motion limits, the universal law, and the law of spatial gravitational field changes."

"All Extraordinary Systems have a natural upper limit."

"Except for those paths recognized by the will of the cosmos, no other way can ascend to the level of Upper-Ranked Gods."

"Though I speak as a Lower-Ranked God, which might lack persuasiveness, I have witnessed countless rises and falls of geniuses over my long life, and what I say is by no means baseless!"

At this point, the eyes of several Earth Extraordinary Ones on the Great Wall flickered, their expressions becoming complicated.

Is the Twenty-Third Rank of ’Burning Martial’ truly the limit?

All along, everyone has been following Ma Ran, who bore the weight of the sky’s collapse as the [Prophet].

Even so, Earth’s predicament is extremely difficult.

If Ma Ran is really stuck at the Middle-Ranked God level and remains stagnant for a long time, the consequences...

are simply unbearable to think of.

Su Qiangwei raised an eyebrow as if intending to retort, but [Tomb] changed his tone: "There is a saying in China, ’the Great Dao is fifty, the heavens evolve forty-nine,’ leaving one for vitality. Nothing in all things can be said to be absolute!"

[Tomb] paused, apprehensively glancing at Ye Fengqing, who was enjoying the view from the Great Wall: "Before being captured by that one, I discovered that on Earth, there is a mystery temporarily dwelling in a certain fortunate individual, harboring the opportunity to break through the shackles of a Middle-Ranked God!"

"That is the power called ’Immortal’!"

"If you seize his secret, abandon ’Burning Martial’, and start anew, you might surpass the current bottleneck!"

At this point, [Tomb] pointed a finger to his own forehead.

The next moment, a translucent stream of Qi crossed the space, landing in front of Ma Ran, condensing into an intangible, dark mass of information.

Clearly, this secret intelligence, [Tomb] intended only for Ma Ran, directly preventing others from taking it for free.

Ma Ran, who had deeply ingrained habits of scavenging spoils on the battlefield, felt no embarrassment, completely ignoring the eager gazes of other national Extraordinary Ones. Without a moment’s hesitation, he reached out and gently grasped the light mass, directly acquiring this piece of coordinate information.

Afterward, Ma Ran shook his head: "Though it’s of little help, your kind intentions are appreciated."

In Ma Ran’s view, the "fortunate one" mentioned by [Tomb] was not the only one on Earth.

There should be seven, after all.

Seven Earth humans, seemingly protagonists of destiny, had long been identified by the super data lifeform [Hong], known to Ma Ran.

The coordinates provided by [Tomb] corresponded to one of them.

At this stage, Ma Ran’s grasp of Earth’s intelligence far exceeded [Tomb]’s imagination.

[Tomb] took Ma Ran’s response as a genius’s pride, without suspicion, and continued: "The second piece of information..."

"The Divine Court is vast and prosperous, with many enemies, its energy pinned down by numerous resisting forces."

"According to my calculations, it will be about seventeen Earth rotation cycles, or seventeen days, before the Divine Court formally acts against Earth."

"However..."

[Tomb] sighed: "Among the six Lower-Ranked Gods who previously fell on Earth, one was famous for being the [Princess of Evil] within the Divine Court."

"Although her savings, talent, and aptitude were far inferior to the team’s leader who also fell, this [Princess of Evil] was a rising star entertainer in the Divine Court."

"Her creations and performances are very niche, yet she has a highly loyal fan base."

"Among them, one fan has reached the Middle-Ranked God level, who has publicly declared vengeance for the [Princess of Evil] and vowed to personally kill all those responsible for her downfall."

"You have already mastered the method to break through [Avoidance Protection], and possess combat power comparable to a Middle-Ranked God, so I won’t give unsolicited advice on what to do."

"Everyone, proceed with caution."

From the perspective of Earth’s civilization, [Tomb] is a selflessly devoting interstellar friend with somewhat problematic reasoning.

From the perspective of the Divine Court, [Tomb] is an informant selling Divine Court secrets.

But from [Tomb]’s own perspective...

Colleagues set out to eliminate a pitiful bunch of stray cats, while he found the Cat King, teaching the cat some self-defense methods, merely showing concern and love for small animals.

[Tomb] seemed to recall something and added: "The names and codes of Upper-Ranked Gods, once mentioned, cause a resonance, locking onto this place despite spanning countless star systems."

Therefore, the specific name and abilities of the "one who controls the power within the Divine Court" that he mentioned went unspoken, as everyone present unspokenly refrained from inquiring further.

With that, [Tomb] rose into the air, slowly departing from Earth.

[Light Speed Gentleman] William and [Industrial Dominator] Julius Adenauer watched his retreating figure, seemingly tempted to catch up and capture him.

Just as Ye Fengqing mentioned...

A living god, whether used as experimental material for dissection and research, or for the extraction of information, holds significant value.

But the problem is...

This [Tomb] seems to be an interstellar friend...

Ignoring this fact, he was also the "greeting gift" from the [Lord of the Red Lotus] to the Chinese side.

Ma Ran and Su Qiangwei had said nothing, so what right did they have to take action?

Moreover, letting [Tomb] go might be a strategy to bait for a bigger catch in the long term.

After all, [Tomb]’s behavior after capture was truly bizarre and incomprehensible, like being in a trance.

Thus, the welcoming event on the Great Wall finally concluded satisfactorily.

Under the enthusiastic hospitality of Earthlings, the [Lord of the Red Lotus] took residence at the Guangyu Academy.

Meanwhile, William, Julius Adenauer, Ogata Shitou, Tegnev, Gray, and others relayed their experiences at the Great Wall back to their respective countries.

...

That night.

At the Douluo Palace within Guangyu Academy.

Ma Ran put down the phone, a smile appearing on his face.

With relentless promotion by the National Guardian level Extraordinary Ones from various countries, the [Play] ability finally gave feedback!

Just like when he played [Sword Master] Lin Qiubai before, vast quantities of high-level Extraordinary Skills known as the "Red Lotus Secret Knowledge" emerged in Ma Ran’s mind.

Memory, cognition, understanding, then digestion and absorption, thoroughly comprehending.

Power, agility, endurance, energy, spiritual power...

No attribute had changed a bit.

Yet Ma Ran was absolutely certain that after digesting this knowledge, his strength had reached an entirely new level!

The accumulation of the past life placed Ma Ran at the Ultimate Realm in the path of [Skill], and this advanced Extraordinary Knowledge acquired through the [Play] ability allowed him to grasp more truths of [Law].

Overall combat power increased by at least thirty percent!

If the Six Gods of Destruction were resurrected, without any calculations needed, the current Ma Ran could annihilate them all by himself!

Proven fact...

The cosmic laws mentioned by [Tomb] seemed ineffective against the [Play] ability.

Ma Ran encountered no bottlenecks, and his strength and realm could still continue to improve!

Long-term goals need not be considered for the time being; the immediate challenge is first to deal with the Middle-Ranked God fan of the [Princess of Evil], followed by the second wave of the Divine Court’s offensive against Earth.

Thinking of this, Ma Ran used the Enclosure Text as the core, employing the newly comprehended Red Lotus Skillful Method as a medium, to condense three heavy tomes with fiery red covers in Su Qiangwei’s "residence"...
