"Let's see what's going on."
Lan Tianyu lifted his gaze upward.
The vague bottleneck that had once been impossible to perceive now appeared clearly under the vision of the Six Eyes—a complex barrier composed of countless tiny energy nodes.
"Now that I can see you, there's no reason to let you stand in my way!"
With a single thought, Lan Tianyu pushed his family's internal cultivation technique to its absolute limit.
In an instant, the once-gentle inner power transformed into a roaring torrent!
Within the villa—and even across the entire estate—the thin ambient energy of heaven and earth was violently drawn in and gathered.
It formed a visible vortex that surged toward Lan Tianyu's body from every direction.
Lan Tianyu seemed to have become a bottomless black hole, greedily devouring every trace of usable energy from the world around him.
Sunlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling window and landed on his body.
Yet even the light itself seemed partially drained away, forming a faint halo around him.
Such an astonishing phenomenon instantly alarmed those nearby.
In the neighboring villa—
A middle-aged couple in pajamas almost simultaneously leaped from the window and teleported to the entrance of Lan Tianyu's villa.
They held their breath, forcefully suppressing the urge to rush inside.
Even the slightest disturbance might interrupt their son's crucial breakthrough.
"Tianyu has endured this bottleneck for over a year. He's finally about to break through."
Lan Wenhua gazed up at the tightly closed window on the second floor, his eyes filled with excitement and pride.
"The Lan family will finally have another expert with a battle power index above 20,000!"
"But Tianyu has suffered for it," Wei Qingxia muttered. "He sacrificed almost all his time for cultivation. He's already twenty-six and still hasn't had a girlfriend."
"If he had even the slightest worldly desire, I'd probably already be holding a grandson by now."
As a mother, her concerns were clearly different.
Whether the battle power index rose a little or dropped a little didn't matter much to her.
What she really wanted was for her son to start a family sooner.
"Hmph. A woman's shallow thinking!"
"Women?" Lan Wenhua lowered his voice but couldn't hide the reproach in his tone. "With Tianyu's qualifications, countless high-society ladies would willingly throw themselves at him."
"But once Tianyu breaks through, the Lan Group will finally be truly stable."
"Those wolves and vultures eyeing our family will no longer dare bare their fangs!"
"Yes, yes, of course. Our great chairman always thinks so far ahead."
Wei Qingxia curled her lips sarcastically.
While the couple argued quietly, more and more people teleported over from the surrounding villas.
Men and women.
Young and old.
Without exception, they were all members of the Lan family.
Sensing Lan Wenhua and Wei Qingxia's presence—and feeling the terrifying fluctuations of inner power within the villa—
Some of them wanted to ask questions.
But Lan Wenhua silenced them with a single glance.
Everyone immediately understood.
They stood silently in the courtyard, their burning gazes fixed on the second-floor window.
The courtyard became so quiet that even a falling needle could be heard.
Only the invisible vortex continued to howl silently.
Time passed.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
Half an hour.
Inside the master bedroom on the second floor—
"Break!"
Lan Tianyu shouted inwardly.
But unlike before, there was no trace of hesitation in his mind.
Only absolute confidence—as if success were inevitable.
His inner power, condensed to its absolute limit, surged toward the bottleneck.
Boom!
The explosion didn't occur in the physical world.
Instead, a deafening roar erupted directly within the depths of Lan Tianyu's consciousness.
The seemingly indestructible barrier shattered instantly—like fragile paper!
His long-stagnant battle power index began skyrocketing.
[4568… 9865… 15265… 20300]
A year of accumulated cultivation—
Combined with the astonishing talent granted by the Gojo Satoru template—
Finally allowed Lan Tianyu to break free from the shackles and take a step forward.
Three hundred points might not sound like much.
But it was still an enormous increase.
Under the microscopic observation of the Six Eyes, his strength was at least ten percent stronger than when he had first broken past 20,000.
"Huu…"
Lan Tianyu slowly exhaled a long breath of turbid air.
The breath shot forward like an arrow, carrying scorching heat.
A leaf drifting several meters away instantly ignited and turned to ashes.
Then he slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, the Six Eyes were still active.
He could observe every corner of the room with a perfect 360-degree field of vision, without a single blind spot.
Not only that—
He could clearly see the finest veins of the leaves outside the window.
He could see every speck of dust dancing in the sunlight and every twist of airflow that carried them.
Even his parents, his eldest uncle, and his second uncle standing below the villa appeared clearly in his vision.
"These Six Eyes are really convenient…"
"If they could see through walls, that would be even better."
Lan Tianyu murmured calmly.
He stood up.
His steps were light and steady.
The inner power flowing through his body moved smoothly and naturally, without the slightest trace of obstruction.
Looking at the vibrant world outside the window—rich with endless details—
A blazing light ignited in Lan Tianyu's eyes.
"This… is the world I truly want to see."
"And control."
With that, his figure shifted slightly—
And he vanished from the spot.
In the courtyard below, many members of the Lan family were anxiously waiting.
Lan Tianyu's figure suddenly appeared in front of the crowd, standing calmly.
"Uncle!"
A little boy about seven or eight years old squeezed out from the crowd and ran toward him with excited short steps.
"Little Silo."
Seeing his lively nephew, Lan Tianyu smiled faintly.
At that moment, a sudden thought arose in his mind.
Almost instinctively, he raised his right hand and casually traced a light stroke in the air with his index finger.
Buzz!
The space before him suddenly rippled visibly.
In the next instant—
The little boy who had still been running more than ten meters away suddenly appeared directly in front of Lan Tianyu.
It was as if the distance between them had been erased by an invisible eraser.
This nearly instinctive movement was the core ability he had just obtained from the Gojo Satoru template—
Blue.
This ability could create gravitational distortion similar to a black hole, reducing the distance between objects and pulling them together.
When used against enemies, it could even crush them instantly.
Of course, when facing his nephew Lan Silo, Lan Tianyu only used the most basic application—simply shortening the distance.
Even so, the overwhelming power and convenience of Blue still surprised him.
If this ability were used against an enemy—
It could probably kill them instantly before they even realized what happened.
