Chapter 107: Fame Spreads Through the Starry Domain, A Thirteenth Peak Master is Celebrated (End of Chapter Preview)
"Tier Four, twelfth level."
Lin Yuan opened his eyes, a smile spreading across his face.
Benefiting from the Seven Star Cave's trial, Lin Yuan had hardly wasted any time at the eleventh level of Tier Four.
In less than two months, he had smoothly advanced to the twelfth level of Tier Four.
The twelfth level of Tier Four was the pinnacle of this stage, marking the end of his progress for now.
"Next, it's time for Tier Five," Lin Yuan thought, his expression turning slightly solemn.
Even though he had long been confident, actually breaking into Tier Five was by no means an easy task.
Even for evolvers with a complete evolutionary path to guide them, there were various risks involved when breaking through to a new major realm.
What if he failed?
What if he lost his mind?
What if his body exploded, leading to his death?
Moreover, Lin Yuan was forging a new path forward. Even with his heaven-defying comprehension ability to guide him, it was impossible for everything to go smoothly.
"Actually, the best approach would be to utilize the Myriad Worlds Gate to shuttle through different worlds, completing the Tier Five progress in an alternate world," Lin Yuan thought to himself. "Once I've confirmed that there are no issues, my main body in the main world can follow suit."
The consciousness-shuttling function of the Myriad Worlds Gate served three main purposes.
First, it allowed him to sense the evolutionary paths and cultivation essences of other worlds.
Second, he could take advantage of the varying time flows in different worlds to accelerate his cultivation speed.
And third, it provided a means for trial and error.
Evolution was never a fixed process.
Even with the same evolutionary path, different individuals might experience different effects during cultivation.
However, once a path had been trodden, it would become familiar territory, making future journeys smoother.
By using the Myriad Worlds Gate to shuttle his consciousness to other worlds, Lin Yuan could explore the potential pitfalls of his subsequent evolutionary path.
This was the essence of 'trial and error'.
In fact, the virtual world also had a 'trial and error' function.
But it was undoubtedly inferior to the consciousness-shuttling capability of the Myriad Worlds Gate.
After all, the former was merely a virtual simulation, and no matter how 'real' it seemed, it was still ultimately fake.
"There's still over half a month before I can perform the fourth shuttle," Lin Yuan thought as his consciousness drifted to the depths of his mind, where he gazed upon the massive, majestic light gate.
At this moment, the outer region of the light gate was almost completely filled, with only about one-twentieth of it remaining dormant.
"I wonder what the fourth shuttle world will be like," Lin Yuan mused, a hint of curiosity creeping into his thoughts.
The only drawback of the Myriad Worlds Gate was its inability to allow him to choose the worlds he shuttled to.
So far, the three worlds Lin Yuan had traversed were all random, and he had no say in the matter.
"Wait a moment," Lin Yuan's heart stirred as a sudden realization struck him.
Perhaps it wasn't that he couldn't choose or restrict the worlds he shuttled to.
Maybe it was because the functions of the Myriad Worlds Gate had not yet been fully developed.
The illumination of the Myriad Worlds Gate was divided into three levels: the outer region, the inner region, and the core region.
By illuminating the outer region, Lin Yuan could perform consciousness shuttling.
Illuminating the inner region would allow him to shuttle his physical body.
As for illuminating the core region, Lin Yuan only knew that it had something to do with bringing items from other worlds back to the main world.
Beyond that, he didn't know much else since he had never illuminated it before.
"The core region," Lin Yuan murmured, his face reflecting a moment of thought.
Illuminating the core region would take a long time, possibly even centuries.
However, if he ever reached a major bottleneck in his cultivation and couldn't make any further progress despite his shuttling efforts, he could consider waiting for a hundred or even a thousand years to illuminate the core region and see what new capabilities it unlocked.
Perhaps it would grant him the ability to choose the worlds he shuttled to or allow him to lock onto worlds that met his requirements before shuttling.
Having broken through to the twelfth level of Tier Four, Lin Yuan decided to take a well-deserved rest.
Just as he was about to leave the training ground, he realized someone was trying to contact him.
"Third Senior Brother?" Lin Yuan glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was indeed his third senior brother, Gu Ze, trying to reach him.
Whoosh! Lin Yuan connected his consciousness to the virtual world and appeared in his personal space.
He then granted Third Senior Brother Gu Ze permission to enter.
Buzz! Third Senior Brother Gu Ze smiled as he looked at Lin Yuan.
"Little Junior Brother," Gu Ze said, his mood pleasant. "How's your cultivation going lately? The escort team should have arrived by now, right?"
"It's going well," Lin Yuan replied politely.
"They arrived some time ago," he added.
"Little Junior Brother, you really don't plan on coming to the Red Kun Main Star?" Third Senior Brother Gu Ze asked. "I can personally come to fetch you. It's much safer on the Main Star with Teacher there."
"My strength is still lacking. I'll come after I reach Tier Six. With the escort team and the protection talisman Teacher bestowed upon me, I'm safe wherever I am," Lin Yuan shook his head as he declined.
In truth, this was just an excuse.
The Red Kun Main Star was the most prosperous place in the Red Kun Star Domain.
Powerful evolvers were everywhere, and Tier Six Falling Stars were no longer a rarity.
Moreover, there was even a formidable existence like the Red Kun Star Master presiding over the star.
However, the more prosperous and powerful the place was, the more cautious Lin Yuan had to be.
After all, he couldn't guarantee that the Myriad Worlds Gate hidden deep within his mind would escape the perception of the Red Kun Star Master.
While the virtual world couldn't replicate the Myriad Worlds Gate in his mind, he couldn't be sure that the Red Kun Star Master wouldn't sense it in the real world.
Of course, Lin Yuan was also aware that the Red Kun Star Master would most likely not be able to detect the existence of the Myriad Worlds Gate.
But it was always better to err on the side of caution.
"That's true," Third Senior Brother Gu Ze agreed without further suspicion.
Instead, he admired Lin Yuan's thoughtful consideration. Given his status, if he suddenly left the Red Kun Main Star, it would definitely attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.
Even if he left secretly, there was no guarantee that he could escape the notice of everyone.
If word got out that he had specifically gone to Canglan Star, it was highly likely that Little Junior Brother's true identity would be exposed.
Compared to the escort team secretly cultivated by the Red Kun Star Master, Third Senior Brother Gu Ze was much more conspicuous.
"There's also another matter," Third Senior Brother Gu Ze said. "We've announced to the public that the Red Kun lineage will have a thirteenth peak master."
"As for your identity, we'll say that Teacher discovered you by chance during his travels through the universe and brought you back to the Main Star, only revealing your presence after cultivating you for a few years."
Third Senior Brother explained.
"I understand," Lin Yuan nodded.
This explanation was clearly designed to protect him.
By setting the timeline a few years back, they were ensuring that others wouldn't associate his presence with the current tournament.
"Since our Red Kun lineage now has an additional peak master, we will naturally hold a grand celebration. At that time, powers from the Red Kun Star Domain and the surrounding star domains will come to offer their congratulations," Third Senior Brother Gu Ze said with a smile.
"Of course, all of this will take place in the virtual world. Little Junior Brother, remember to show up and participate then."
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we've held a grand ceremony like this. It'll be a good opportunity for you to experience it," Third Senior Brother Gu Ze added.
"Alright," Lin Yuan agreed.
After all, it would take place in the virtual world, where he could easily alter his appearance and physique, ensuring that no one would discover his true identity.
As the identities of the Red Kun lineage's peak masters were gradually revealed, News of the Red Kun Star Master taking on a new disciple spread like a hurricane throughout the Red Kun Star Domain and the surrounding star domains.
The Red Kun Star Master was already renowned for his fame and formidable strength, attracting the attention of countless individuals.
In the Red Kun Star Domain, on a high-level life planet known as Guang Qu Star, resided the Guang Qu Family, the most powerful force on the planet, so influential that the entire planet bore their surname. The Guang Qu Family possessed more than one Falling Star among their ranks.
"The Red Kun Star Master has taken on a new disciple?"
"A thirteenth peak master for the Red Kun lineage?"
Guang Qu Han, the patriarch of the Guang Qu Family, pondered as he perused the intelligence before him.
He recalled a memory from ten thousand years ago when his father, a powerful Falling Star who was once renowned throughout the surrounding star domains, had paid a hefty price to bring him, a young boy exhibiting terrifying talent, to the Red Kun main star to request that the Red Kun Star Master take him on as a disciple. However, they were rejected without even getting a chance to meet the Star Master.
This incident had left a deep psychological shadow on Guang Qu Han. Prior to that, he was considered an extremely talented genius, hailed as a once-in-ten-millennia peerless genius of Guang Qu Star.
"Celebration Ceremony."
Guang Qu Han glanced at the date of the Red Kun lineage's celebration ceremony.
He intended to attend the event in person.
Firstly, he wanted to witness the thirteenth peak master who had managed to catch the eye of the Red Kun Star Master. Secondly, as the strongest force in the Red Kun Star Domain, it was only right for him to show his support for the Red Kun lineage's celebration.
On the Morning Star main star, within the most powerful force known as the Morning Star Association— "The Red Kun Star Master has taken on a new disciple?"
The Morning Star Association's leader tapped his fingers on the table, a look of surprise on his face.
"I thought the Star Master wouldn't consider taking on any more disciples," he mused to himself.
"Oh well."
"I'll attend this celebration ceremony."
"It'll be a good opportunity to catch up with some old friends."
The leader of the Morning Star Association made up his mind.
Moreover, with the emergence of a new peak master in the Red Kun lineage, the current situation in the Red Kun Star Domain might very well change.
He wanted to find out more about this thirteenth peak master to prepare for the future.
In the Star Domain of Yao Guang, on a bustling main star— "Hmm?"
"That old fellow from Red Kun has taken on a new disciple?"
A mysterious being became intrigued. "Doesn't he fear that his disciple will be assassinated by foreign races again?"
Speaking of which, this mysterious being seemed to realize something. "Come to think of it, since he dares to make it public, he must have made preparations. He won't repeat the same mistake as ten thousand years ago."
The impact of the thirteenth peak master of the Red Kun lineage continued to spread.
One powerful evolutionist after another, one formidable force after another, all participated in the Red Kun lineage's celebration ceremony.
After all, the ceremony was held in the virtual world, and no matter how far apart they were, they only needed to spend some money to teleport there.
If the ceremony were held in the real world, many evolutionists and forces might not have been able to attend, no matter how much they wanted to.
"Do you know where the new disciple of the Red Kun Star Master is from?"
"Yeah, what's his background? With the Star Master's status, he shouldn't be taking on any more disciples, right?"
"I heard that the Star Master found him on a desolate planet during his travels in the universe and brought him back because he was a genius."
"Wow, for the Star Master to call someone a 'genius,' his talent must be heaven-defying. Could he be one of those legendary bloodline body types of our human race?"
Countless evolutionists speculated and discussed the origins of the new disciple.
There was no helping it; this was a rare event that hadn't occurred in tens of thousands of years.
In the virtual world, on the Red Kun main star, within the thirteenth main peak, at the highest hall— Lin Yuan sat with his twelve senior brothers.
Below the grand hall were countless figures—evolutionists from all over the universe who had come to congratulate Lin Yuan.
"Little Junior Brother, that person is from the Gong Zhi Family, and he's not weak. I fought him once."
"Little Junior Brother, the one in the fourth row isn't human. He's an alien who surrendered to our human race millions of years ago, so he's one of us now."
"Little Junior Brother—"
From morning till now, the senior brothers had been introducing Lin Yuan to the various evolutionists who had come to celebrate. The Red Kun Star Domain was massive, with over a million life planets. One could only imagine the number of evolutionists who had come to offer their congratulations.
If not for the series of prerequisites set by the senior brothers for attending the celebration ceremony, the number of attendees would likely have been ten or a hundred times more.
Lin Yuan nodded politely beside his senior brothers.
He could feel their enthusiasm.
The Red Kun lineage was extremely united, and the senior brothers were well aware that as long as Lin Yuan didn't meet with an untimely end, they would be brothers for an incredibly long time.
In the Universe Human Alliance, the bond between brothers-in-law was sometimes even stronger than that of blood relatives.
After all, blood relatives might grow old and die, but brothers-in-law were usually of the same level, with similar lifespans, allowing them to accompany each other for extended periods.
Although Lin Yuan was still weak, his senior brothers believed that he would soon catch up to them and might even surpass them in the future.
Below the grand hall, in a corner— Fang Qing sat with several other evolutionists who had recently joined the Red Kun lineage.
"That's the thirteenth peak master?"
A gentle and weak-looking woman beside Fang Qing asked curiously.
"He looks quite young. I wonder if I can become his disciple."
The gentle woman spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the others lit up.
Although the thirteenth peak master was the weakest and had the shallowest foundation, compared to the massive number of disciples under the previous twelve peak masters, it would be easier to stand out as a disciple of the thirteenth peak master since there was less competition.
Moreover, if they followed him from his early days of weakness, they would become the 'elders' when he grew stronger, which would benefit their future generations.
"Thirteenth peak master."
Fang Qing scanned the bustling celebration around him and felt a sense of loss.
"If Lin Yuan had passed the test, we could be drinking together right now." Fang Qing missed Lin Yuan and suddenly drained the wine from his cup.
Just then— The eldest senior brother stood up from his seat in the grand hall and walked to the front of the hall, facing the countless evolutionists who had come to offer their congratulations.
"Now, let us congratulate our little junior brother, the thirteenth peak master."
The eldest senior brother's voice reached everyone present.
Instantly— Countless people stood up, raised their cups, and looked towards Lin Yuan, who was seated in the grand hall.
Among them were the leaders of powerful forces from high-level life planets, formidable evolutionists, and even heirs to massive conglomerates.
At this moment, all eyes were on Lin Yuan.
They all understood that from this day forward, the Red Kun Star Domain would have one more high-ranking member.
"Congratulations to the thirteenth peak master!"
"Congratulations to the thirteenth peak master!"
"Congratulations to the thirteenth peak master!!"
Countless voices echoed, deafening the hall.
