Chapter 487: Return
Chapter 487: Return (End of Volume, Please Subscribe)
Within the vast universe of the Xian Realm, one's consciousness could easily harness the power of the entire realm. Even a twelfth-tier existence like the Ancestor of the Xian Path would have to retreat when faced with the immense power of the realm.
The entire Xian Realm was like the physical body of its consciousness, and even though Lin Yuan had ventured into the core of its origin, he couldn't manipulate the power of the realm from there.
However, the Xian Realm consciousness could still control the myriad rules that governed it and challenge Lin Yuan.
After all, the core of its origin was where these myriad rules existed, and the consciousness had control over them.
But ever since Lin Yuan nurtured the Chaos Rule, it naturally suppressed the myriad rules, and the Xian Realm consciousness realized that even with its control, it couldn't defeat Lin Yuan. Naturally, it began to fear.
At this moment, Lin Yuan truly had the power to erase the Xian Realm consciousness if he so wished.
Of course, the consciousness still had some resistance capabilities. It could initiate a grand destruction, guiding the collapse of the Xian Realm. In doing so, the myriad rules of the realm would voluntarily converge into the Chaos Rule to counter Lin Yuan.
However, such an action would also lead to the collapse of the consciousness, and although a new Xian Realm would eventually be reborn, a new consciousness would emerge as well.
But that new consciousness would not be the same as the current one.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, the Xian Realm consciousness would never willingly bring about grand destruction, as it wasn't much better than being erased.
"Rest assured, I won't erase you," Lin Yuan said casually, mainly because erasing the consciousness wouldn't benefit him in any way.
By now, he had already comprehended most of the rules governing the core of the Xian Realm's origin, and erasing the consciousness wouldn't provide him with any further advantages.
In simple terms, Lin Yuan had already gained everything he could from the consciousness.
If he truly pushed the consciousness to desperation and it chose to bring about grand destruction, taking him down with it, Lin Yuan wouldn't mind.
After all, he could return to the main universe at any time, but the efforts he had spent over the past thousand years to spread the Martial Way throughout the thirty-three Xian Domains would be in vain.
Without the Xian Realm, there would be no cultivators of the Martial Way.
"However, now that I know that the Chaos Rule can restrain the consciousness of a world, I wonder about the consciousness of the main universe," Lin Yuan mused to himself.
Although the Xian Realm and the main universe were roughly on the same level, the essence of the rules contained within the main universe was undoubtedly far superior.
For example, in the core of the Xian Realm's origin, the limit was to comprehend seven layers of a pillar-grade fusion rule.
But in the core of the main universe's origin, that limit would be raised to eight or even nine layers.
"Never mind, I probably can't even enter the origin of the main universe," Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
His ability to enter this core was not due to his own strength but because his comprehension of spacetime had reached the seventh layer, surpassing the spacetime rules of the Xian Realm.
As for forcibly entering? The power of the vast Xian Realm was enough to suppress a typical twelfth-tier ultimate existence, as evidenced by the Ancestor of the Xian Path.
And the spacetime of the main universe was even more immense.
To transcend the spacetime of the main universe, Lin Yuan estimated that his comprehension of spacetime would need to reach the eighth or even ninth layer.
And to reach the eighth or ninth layer of spacetime comprehension?
Even for Lin Yuan, it would take at least stepping into the twelfth tier before he could confidently venture into such a domain.
It was common knowledge that one of Emperor Xuanhuang's most formidable abilities was his ninth-layer spacetime comprehension.
Even among peak Chaos Realm experts, very few had achieved a ninth-layer comprehension of spacetime.
"I'm leaving," Lin Yuan glanced at the Xian Realm consciousness, and his figure disappeared from the core.
After giving birth to the Chaos Rule, Lin Yuan had reached the limit in every aspect.
At least, this place no longer held any benefits for him.
"He's left?"
The Xian Realm consciousness was slightly taken aback and repeatedly probed its surroundings.
Upon confirming that Lin Yuan was indeed gone, it immediately began to harness the power of the entire Xian Realm to heavily guard the core.
Although the consciousness lacked concrete thought processes, it developed a strong instinct—it never wanted to encounter Lin Yuan again.
After all, no one would want to be in the presence of an existence that could erase them.
Back on the Dao Ancestor Continent.
The Ancestor of the Xian Path continued to monitor the rule fluctuations emanating from the origin.
"Hmm?"
"It has stabilized again?"
The Ancestor of the Xian Path's eyebrows twitched, and he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Although the chaotic rule fluctuations had no effect on him, the Ancestor of the Xian Path still preferred 'order'.
Suddenly.
At that moment.
A figure silently materialized before the Ancestor of the Xian Path.
"What?"
The Ancestor of the Xian Path's expression changed drastically.
This was his dojo, equivalent to his domain, where he controlled everything. Yet, someone had entered without his detection.
It was only when the figure appeared right before him that the Ancestor of the Xian Path became aware.
"Ancestor of the Martial Way?"
The Ancestor of the Xian Path stared at the figure in the distance and recognized the Ancestor of the Martial Way.
"Ancestor of the Xian Path," Lin Yuan smiled slightly. "I came to bid you farewell today."
Indeed, after giving birth to the Chaos Rule, the origin held no more significance for Lin Yuan.
In the remaining decades of his stay, Lin Yuan planned to explore various places.
Over the past thousand years, his incarnations had traversed almost every corner of the Xian Realm.
However, beyond the Xian Realm, in the vast void, Lin Yuan had barely explored anything.
"Farewell?"
The Ancestor of the Xian Path's face twitched slightly.
There was only one reason for Lin Yuan to consider leaving the Origin Realm, and that was that the manifested rules of the realm no longer offered him any benefits.
But how was that possible?
The Ancestor of the Xian Path had secluded himself in the Origin Realm for billions of years, and even now, he still felt that the manifested rules of this place could provide him with new insights.
Yet, Lin Yuan was leaving after just a thousand years?
"Have you broken through?" The Ancestor of the Xian Path asked tentatively.
At this moment, Lin Yuan gave off an aura that far exceeded what he had a thousand years ago, causing the Ancestor of the Xian Path to feel immense pressure. Moreover, Lin Yuan's ability to appear before him without any warning was a testament to his growth.
The Ancestor of the Xian Path was almost certain that the recent rule fluctuations that affected the entire Xian Realm were caused by none other than Lin Yuan.
"You could say that," Lin Yuan replied with a smile.
The birth of the Chaos Rule within him had brought about an improvement that was not far off from what one would gain when pushing for the ultimate breakthrough.
If not for the fact that he had already reached the ultimate stage in the main universe, with the nourishment of the Chaos Void Origin, his improvement could be said to be on par with breaking through to the ultimate realm.
"You could say that?" The Ancestor of the Xian Path's thoughts were complex. He couldn't pinpoint exactly where Lin Yuan had broken through, as he didn't sense the aura of a fellow Ancestor.
However, the current Lin Yuan undoubtedly posed a significant threat, one that was on par with his own level of power.
"After I leave, I hope you will continue to watch over the practitioners of the Martial Way," Lin Yuan said.
His statement could be taken as a request or a warning.
With his time in the Xian Realm coming to an end, Lin Yuan would soon depart for good. Thus, he was here to give the Ancestor of the Xian Path a heads-up.
"Rest assured, I will do my best for your lineage," the Ancestor of the Xian Path said solemnly.
Even if Lin Yuan hadn't broken through, the Ancestor of the Xian Path wouldn't dare to act against the Martial Way lineage, let alone now that he had clearly made a breakthrough.
Before Lin Yuan's breakthrough, the Ancestor of the Xian Path couldn't do anything to him, but at the same time, Lin Yuan was also unable to pose a threat to him.
Now, however, the Ancestor of the Xian Path still couldn't do anything to Lin Yuan, but Lin Yuan was fully capable of causing him harm.
"I hope so," Lin Yuan nodded.
Even after ending this journey, Lin Yuan would be able to keep a close eye on the changes within the Martial Way in the Xian Realm.
With his Spatial Comprehension reaching the seventh layer, Lin Yuan's control over the Myriad Worlds Gate had improved, allowing him to sense what was happening in the Xian Realm, even across infinite space and time, without relying on the Demon Tree to relay information.
"I wonder..." The Ancestor of the Xian Path intended to ask more about Lin Yuan's breakthrough, but before he could, Lin Yuan had already vanished.
"Ancestor of the Martial Way," the Ancestor of the Xian Path murmured, his eyes filled with complexity.
The Ancestor of the Martial Way had only appeared very briefly, a mere thousand years ago.
Yet, his impact on the Xian Realm, and even on the Ancestor of the Xian Path himself, was unprecedented.
"Could the Ancestor of the Martial Way's breakthrough be related to the consciousness of the Xian Realm?" The Ancestor of the Xian Path's heart stirred, and he, too, yearned for a similar breakthrough and the immense power that came with it.
With that thought, the Ancestor of the Xian Path disappeared, only to reappear outside the core of the Origin Realm moments later.
Rumble!
Before he could react, a torrent of power from the Xian Realm came rushing toward him.
"Get out!" The consciousness of the Xian Realm reacted strongly, and the Ancestor of the Xian Path didn't hesitate to retreat, putting distance between himself and the core.
"Hmm?" The Ancestor of the Xian Path's expression turned ugly. He hadn't expected the consciousness of the Xian Realm to react so strongly, and he was immediately expelled just for trying to test it out.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, ninety years had gone by.
In a remote corner of the universe, far from the Xian Realm, Lin Yuan's figure came to a stop.
"My time here is almost up," Lin Yuan said, gazing into the endless void.
During these ninety years, through his constant exploration, he had discovered four worlds that were slightly weaker than the Xian Realm but still surpassed the Spirit Realm.
Lin Yuan had casually spread the Martial Way to these four worlds.
"The Martial Way has taken root in the Xian Realm without any issues," Lin Yuan said.
Even across infinite space and time, Lin Yuan could clearly sense the situation in the Xian Realm, thanks to an incarnation he had left there.
"It's time to go back," Lin Yuan thought, and a 'clock'-shaped weapon with profound origins appeared before him.
It was his Origin Clock.
This Origin Clock had been with Lin Yuan since he was at the sixth or seventh stage, and it had now reached the pinnacle of the eleventh stage.
"I shall turn all the power of this physical body into origin and infuse it into the Origin Clock. Even if I can't transform it into a twelfth-stage weapon, it should come close," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
"Let's begin," Lin Yuan said, and the energy within his body began to gradually collapse.
With his current physical strength, bringing this body back to the main universe would consume an unimaginable amount of dimension-breaking source energy. Thus, he decided to turn it into nourishment for the transformation of the Origin Clock instead.
A year later, Lin Yuan's physical body and soul had completely transformed into the most fundamental origin power, merging with the 'clock'-shaped weapon.
The next moment, Lin Yuan's consciousness was pulled into the depths of his consciousness, where the majestic Myriad Worlds Gate stood.
