Chapter 456: The Mother Emperor of Myriad Transformations
Chapter 456: The Mother Emperor of Myriad Transformations (End of Chapter)
"Is that all?"
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, inspecting himself again, inside and out, to confirm that only his life essence had been reduced and that nothing else had been affected.
And the reduction in life essence was only one-ten-millionth.
This had practically no impact on Lin Yuan's strength.
In fact, Lin Yuan faintly sensed that even this minuscule reduction in life essence was only temporary and would soon recover.
"What's going on?"
Lin Yuan's thoughts turned.
It could be speculated that the sudden reduction in his life essence was definitely the doing of those peak racial powers.
This move was extremely sophisticated and was likely the work of a 12th-realm ultimate being; otherwise, he wouldn't have been completely unaware and unable to resist.
However—
The peak racial power that made the move must have underestimated the depth of Lin Yuan's life essence, causing the weakened life essence to be but a drop in the ocean compared to Lin Yuan's total life essence.
Life essence was determined by various factors such as one's inner world, physical body, soul, and mental will.
External forces had almost no influence on life essence.
Lin Yuan's life essence was primarily derived from his inner world, which had a diameter of over 700 billion li, compared to the inner world of a typical perfect 11th-realm being, which was less than a billion li in size.
It was tens of thousands of times larger.
Next was his physical body, which had undergone the ultimate tempering of the martial arts evolutionary path, borrowed the microstructures of the strong physical bodies of the Myriad Races, received the foundational blessings of the mysterious gourd, and been enhanced by the infusion of chaos void origin energy on two occasions.
The strength of Lin Yuan's physical body, compared to an ordinary perfect 11th-realm being, was not any less superior than his inner world.
The same was true for his soul. The powerful inner world and physical body nurtured a soul that far surpassed that of a typical perfect 11th-realm being from the start.
As for his mental will, there was no need to elaborate. The first three aspects—inner world, physical body, and soul—had not yet entered the 12th realm.
However, Lin Yuan's mental will had thoroughly entered the 12th realm and could be considered powerful even within that realm.
With over 3,330,000 points in mental will index, Lin Yuan suspected that quite a few 12th-realm ultimates might not match up to him.
The combination of his inner world, physical body, soul, and mental will resulted in a life essence far surpassing that of a typical perfect 11th-realm being.
The gap between the two was not a hundred million times, but still several tens of millions of times.
This was also reflected in the River of Time. An ordinary perfect 11th-realm being was but a 'big fish' in the river.
But what about Lin Yuan?
When he sank to the very bottom of the River of Time, his massive body occupied the entire riverbed. The slightest movement stirred countless undercurrents, causing unease among the nearby 11th-realm beings and even affecting the flow of the river in that area.
At the same time, near the central altar of the battlefield.
Riiiip!
Over ten terrifying spatial fissures were torn open.
One after another, the strongest 11th-realm beings from the various peak races appeared, wielding their clan's most powerful weapons and numerous treasures, intending to strike at the altar of victory.
"Go all out."
The strongest 11th-realm being from the Tribulation Clan was enveloped in boundless aura, as if countless tribulations had descended upon him, yet he remained untouched.
The other numerous strongest 11th-realm beings were similar; every action and movement they made exuded power far beyond the limits of the 11th realm.
At this moment, the Yu Clan was using the Balance of Heaven and Earth to restrict the Galaxy Primordial's life essence. As long as they seized this opportunity to kill the Galaxy Primordial and reclaim those supreme weapons, the losses of the various peak races could be made up for.
As for how to deal with the Galaxy Primordial in the future, even if they killed the Galaxy Primordial now, it would only be a clone. The true body of the Galaxy Primordial was still out there, and he would be able to condense another clone to enter the war in the future.
According to the speculations of the 12th-realm ultimates from the various peak racial powers, the ultimate foundation that the Galaxy Primordial possessed should have a range limitation.
Otherwise, the Galaxy Primordial wouldn't have waited until the large-scale decisive battle, with tens of thousands of 11th-realm beings gathered within a range of thousands of billions of li, to make his move.
Now that they knew this, it would be easier to deal with him; they just had to maintain their distance from the Galaxy Primordial at all times.
"Kill!"
The strongest 11th-realm being from the Insect Clan had icy eyes, and with the help of the clan's ultimate treasure, the Nightmare Realm, he held nothing back as he unleashed terrifying soul attacks one after another.
Inside the Altar of Victory.
The 11th-realm powerhouses guarding the altar paled in fear as they looked around. They saw over ten silhouettes rushing towards the altar, causing the space on the battlefield to distort and shatter. All the 11th-realm powerhouses of the Human Civilization Alliance trembled in fear.
Even Xuanyuan You's scalp went numb. These ten-plus strongest 11th-realm beings had obviously used all means necessary, and their goal was clear: to crush the Human Civilization Alliance.
"Galaxy Primordial?"
Xuanyuan You's heart sank. These ten-plus strongest 11th-realm beings dared to be so bold and brazen in their attack, which meant they were confident in their ability to counter the Galaxy Primordial.
With the heaven-defying might that Lin Yuan had displayed on the battlefield a decade ago, if the eleven peak racial powers didn't have absolute confidence, they would never send their strongest 11th-realm beings to their deaths.
Now that they had made their move, it meant they were certain of success and had a good chance of victory.
"Hmm?"
Seated in the depths of the altar, Lin Yuan also sensed the approaching strongest 11th-realm beings.
"First, they weaken my life essence, and then they make their move. It's a decent plan."
Lin Yuan's eyes remained calm.
It had to be said that the plan formulated by the various peak racial powers was perfect and must have been devised with the input of 12th-realm ultimates.
However, it was a pity that—
They had underestimated the depth of Lin Yuan's life essence.
In fact, it wasn't really an underestimation. Even those 12th-realm ultimates wouldn't have been able to predict that an 11th-realm being's life essence could be so profound.
The top powerhouses of Human Civilization were confident because they knew about the commotion caused by Lin Yuan's breakthroughs to the 10th and 11th realms.
But the 12th-realm ultimates from other races didn't know about this.
In fact, even the top powerhouses of Human Civilization probably wouldn't have imagined that Lin Yuan's life essence would reach such a profound level.
It was as if he had opened up a whole new realm between the 11th and 12th realms.
"Looks like everyone's here."
Lin Yuan's thoughts stirred slightly as he quietly activated his divine ability, 'World'.
"Kill!"
"Galaxy Primordial, we've come to end you!"
The numerous strongest 11th-realm beings approached in an instant, ready to unleash the full power of their clan's ultimate weapons to bombard the altar.
At this moment—
From all directions, above and below, left and right.
The heavens and earth changed, and a brand-new world quietly descended.
"Hmm?"
"What's this?"
"Galaxy Primordial, Galaxy Primordial has used that ultimate foundation again!"
The faces of the strongest 11th-realm beings turned pale, and they found it hard to believe.
Even the strongest 11th-realm being from the Tribulation Clan felt his heart skip a beat.
Didn't Fang Kaumo say that the Yu Clan's heavy treasure was balancing the scales, greatly weakening the Galaxy Primordial's life essence and preventing him from using that ultimate foundation again?
A decade ago, they had witnessed the might of the Galaxy Primordial first-hand. Back then, with tens of thousands of 11th-realm beings present, they had shared the burden of the divine ability 'World' unknowingly.
But now?
With just over ten of the strongest 11th-realm beings present.
Who would dare to stay any longer?
In the peripheral region, Fang Kaumo was also closely observing the battlefield.
Before him, the golden scales balanced the intangible qi of the Galaxy Primordial's life essence, indicating that it was still in a weakened state.
"If it weren't for that ultimate foundation, the Galaxy Primordial wouldn't be much stronger than other peak 11th-realm beings. Now, facing..."
Fang Kaumo's thoughts raced, but then he received inquiries from the strongest 11th-realm beings of the Insect Clan and the Celestial Feather Clan.
"Fang Kaumo, the Galaxy Primordial's life essence doesn't seem weakened at all."
"Fang Kaumo, the Galaxy Primordial has still activated that ultimate foundation, and we are all being suppressed now."
"Fang Kaumo, are you deceiving us? Have you defected to the Human Civilization Alliance?"
Question after question left Fang Kaumo bewildered.
He glanced at the golden scales before him, where the qi of the Galaxy Primordial's life essence was balanced on the right side.
It was equivalent to one-tenth of the total life essence of ten 11th-realm perfect beings on the left side.
He must have misheard.
"Impossible."
Fang Kaumo immediately realized something was amiss, as he also sensed the vast presence emanating from the center of the battlefield.
It was a presence that Fang Kaumo would never forget for eternity.
It belonged to the Galaxy Primordial, who had annihilated tens of thousands of 11th-realm beings a decade ago. Compared to then, this presence had not weakened in the slightest.
But how was this possible?
He had already used the Balance of Heaven and Earth to weaken the Galaxy Primordial's life essence. Even if weakened, the Galaxy Primordial should have been able to use that ultimate foundation.
However, the reduction in life essence should have resulted in a decrease in the power of that ultimate foundation.
Yet now, Fang Kaumo sensed the vast presence from the center of the battlefield, and it seemed to have not weakened at all.
Could it be that he had weakened the wrong person?
No, that wasn't right.
The Balance of Heaven and Earth was indeed weakening the Galaxy Primordial.
Fang Kaumo could still sense the connection with the Galaxy Primordial through the scales.
"What is going on here?"
"Could it be that the Balance of Heaven and Earth is malfunctioning?"
Fang Kaumo immediately contacted the 'Emperor' of the Yu Clan from his true body in the outside world.
In the Yu Clan's domain, within a palace.
Fang Kaumo stood below, waiting anxiously for a response from the 'Emperor' seated on the high throne.
Clearly, the Balance of Heaven and Earth had weakened the Galaxy Primordial's life essence, and the intangible qi corresponding to the life essence was present on the right side of the scales.
Then why did the Galaxy Primordial seem unaffected?
"The Balance of Heaven and Earth did indeed weaken the Galaxy Primordial's life essence."
After a moment, the 'Emperor' of the Yu Clan slowly spoke.
As the Yu Clan's heavy treasure, the Balance of Heaven and Earth was being manipulated by Fang Kaumo.
However, the 'Emperor' was also closely monitoring the situation, and he had left a backup plan within the treasure.
"It did weaken the Galaxy Primordial?"
Fang Kaumo was more confused than ever.
But the Galaxy Primordial's current performance seemed to show no signs of a decrease in strength due to a weakened life essence.
"It seems that the amount of life essence you weakened was too insignificant to affect his strength."
After another pause, the 'Emperor' provided an explanation.
"Too insignificant?"
Fang Kaumo was taken aback.
One-tenth of the total life essence of a hundred 11th-realm perfect beings was equivalent to the entire life essence of ten 11th-realm perfect beings. Even accounting for losses, it should be equivalent to the total life essence of four or five 11th-realm perfect beings.
And yet, this amount was considered too insignificant for the Galaxy Primordial?
In the super-large battlefield.
Lin Yuan turned his gaze towards the over ten strongest 11th-realm beings, who were struggling under the might of his divine ability 'World', despite wielding their clan's ultimate weapons.
Compared to a decade ago, Lin Yuan's strength had increased significantly. With over ten fused rules reaching the 12th-realm understanding, Lin Yuan's inner world had once again undergone a transformation.
As his inner world strengthened, so did the external world created by his divine ability 'World'.
A decade ago, the strongest 11th-realm beings of the various peak races had been able to tear open space and escape using their clan's ultimate weapons.
But a decade later, they could not do the same.
Even with the terrifying power of the clan's ultimate weapons, it was to no avail. Within the range of the external world, space was like a solid substance, and only Lin Yuan could tear through it.
"Although it's enough to trap these strongest 11th-realm beings, if I were to self-destruct the external world, I probably still wouldn't be able to kill even one of them."
Lin Yuan gazed down at the strongest 11th-realm beings struggling under the overwhelming might of his world, his thoughts hidden.
The main difference between a clan's ultimate weapon and a supreme artifact was not their power but who was wielding them.
Supreme artifacts were wielded by 11th-realm beings themselves, so unless absolutely necessary, they would not be used due to the immense strain they placed on the user.
When Lin Yuan had first arrived on the battlefield, he had hidden his strength and exhausted several 11th-realm beings to death who were using supreme artifacts.
However, with the clan's ultimate weapons, the true controllers were not the 11th-realm beings holding them but the 12th-realm ultimates backing them.
Each clan's ultimate weapon contained the means left behind by 12th-realm ultimates, which usually remained dormant but would erupt into action at critical moments.
They would directly take control of the ultimate weapon.
The strongest 11th-realm beings holding the clan's ultimate weapons were unable to tear through the external world's space, not because the ultimate weapons lacked power but because the ultimate means within the weapons had not been triggered.
But if Lin Yuan wanted to truly kill these strongest 11th-realm beings, the ultimate means within the weapons would undoubtedly be activated.
After all, the various peak races would not have allowed their clan's ultimate weapons to enter the battlefield without sufficient preparation, ensuring they would not be lost easily.
"First, let's focus all our strength and see if we can take down one of them."
Lin Yuan's eyes shifted, fixing on the strongest 11th-realm being from the Insect Clan—
Boom!!
An invisible shockwave enveloped the strongest 11th-realm being from the Insect Clan, causing the Nightmare Realm to tremble uncontrollably.
"No good!"
The Insect Clan's strongest 11th-realm being's scalp went numb as she realized too late that the Galaxy Primordial had appeared before her, his right hand slowly pressing down towards her.
