Chapter 508: All Preparations Ready (Please Subscribe)
In the ancient and chaotic continent of Guming, within one of the nine major cities known as Mingchuan City...
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged within a 'guest room' in an inn. Calling it a guest room was perhaps an understatement, as it was more akin to a vast realm, infinitely spacious, with no end in sight.
In the Guming Chaotic Continent, an 'inn' implied safety and freedom from disturbances.
Hence, the rental price was exorbitant.
Lin Yuan had paid ten Chaos Stones to acquire a ten-year residence right to this 'room'.
Ten years was an incredibly short span of time in the Chaotic Void.
Many ancient twelfth-tier beings could far surpass that with just a nap.
However, according to the time flow rate of the Chaotic Void compared to the universe, ten years in the former was equivalent to three millennia in the latter.
By the time the lease expired, Lin Yuan estimated that he would have already entered the twelfth tier. At that point, he would be able to continuously send incarnations of himself over.
Whether it was changing inns or exploring other areas, it was all up to Lin Yuan's choice.
"Chaotic Void."
Lin Yuan carefully sensed the vast avenue of rules governing the Chaotic Void.
Compared to the avenue of rules within the universe, the one in the Chaotic Void was even more profound.
The main reason Lin Yuan had this incarnation settle in the Guming Chaotic Continent was to better comprehend the operation of the avenue of rules in the Chaotic Void.
"This is amazing."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but immerse himself in it.
Even though this was just an incarnation, as long as it contained Lin Yuan's mental will, it would also possess his heaven-defying comprehension ability. At this moment, as he continued to comprehend, brilliant insights rapidly emerged in Lin Yuan's mind.
[*Your comprehension ability defies heaven and earth. By sensing the vast rules, your understanding of rules has improved.*]
Lin Yuan's gaze continued to rise, faintly reaching another level, where a mighty river flowed.
"Is this...the River of Time in the Chaotic Void?"
Lin Yuan immediately realized what it was.
Just as there existed a River of Time in the universe, where all beings below the twelfth tier eventually ended up, there was naturally also a River of Time in the Chaotic Void.
Although there were many twelfth-tier beings in the Chaotic Void, there were even more below that tier.
"This is awe-inspiring."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but marvel inwardly. Compared to the River of Time in the universe, the one in the Chaotic Void was boundlessly more vast.
If the River of Time in the Chaotic Void was compared to the main river channel, then the Rivers of Time in the various universes were mere tributaries branching off from the main channel.
The entire River of Time in the Chaotic Void resembled the veins of a green leaf.
The main channel was like the main vein of the leaf, while the countless fine branches that split off from the main vein flowed through each universe.
"Space-time."
Lin Yuan continued to observe the main channel of the River of Time. A mere ripple here contained countless imprints of eleventh-tier beings' essences.
"I wonder what it would be like if I were in the main channel of the River of Time."
Lin Yuan's thoughts spread out. With his current life essence, the tributary of the River of Time was almost unable to contain him.
He could only stay hidden by curling up his body as much as possible.
But what about the main channel of the River of Time? This was the source of time for the entire Chaotic Void, easily accommodating those wondrous beings far surpassing the perfection of the eleventh tier.
The Chaotic Void was boundless and infinite. Although there still didn't exist any eleventh-tier beings who had comprehended the Chaotic Rules, the upper limit of the eleventh tier here far surpassed that of the universe.
What about the personal disciples of Chaotic Honored Masters? Or the direct offspring of Chaotic Great Sages? Or those wondrous beings directly nurtured by the Chaotic Void, whose life stages rivaled the universe itself?
There were too many legends and impossibilities within the Chaotic Void.
In the center of the Guming Continent, a sharp black mountain trembled slightly.
In truth, this black mountain was the horn of a Chaos Dragon Beast. This Chaos Dragon Beast had battle prowess almost comparable to the Chaotic Realm, and it had submitted to the Guming Honored Master long ago. Its true body was slumbering deep within the Chaotic Continent.
"What's going on?"
"Why do I vaguely sense a crisis?"
The Chaos Dragon Beast opened its eyes, revealing a puzzled look.
As a being nurtured directly by the Chaotic Void, the Chaos Dragon Beast could be considered half a wondrous being, with a faint flow of temporal bloodline within its body.
For all twelfth-tier beings, whether they were in the Path Opening Realm, Dominator Realm, or Chaotic Realm, their ultimate goal was to transform into perfect temporal beings.
Of course, becoming a perfect temporal being was too distant a goal. For those peak Chaotic Great Sages at the very top, the first step was to transform into a temporal being, which meant stepping into the thirteenth tier.
Thirteenth-tier temporal beings, while unable to control the past, present, and future like perfect temporal beings, and easily discern multiple timelines, or jump out of them, still possessed some characteristics of perfect temporal beings. They could observe the future with themselves as an anchor point.
The future was uncertain, with countless timelines, but thirteenth-tier temporal beings had the ability to observe parts of these timelines in advance and see the many futures related to themselves.
The Chaos Dragon Beast's strength was almost comparable to the Chaotic Realm, but its realm was still at the peak of the Dominator Realm.
It was only because of the faint temporal bloodline within its body that it possessed the instinct of 'premonition'.
This 'premonition' instinct was far inferior to that of thirteenth-tier temporal beings who could observe the timelines related to themselves.
The Chaos Dragon Beast could only sense the crisis, but it had no way of knowing what the crisis was, when it would occur, or where it would come from.
Even so, this ability was extremely overpowered.
It had helped the Guming Honored Master avoid a lot of trouble.
"This won't do. I must inform Guming quickly." After thinking for a moment, the Chaos Dragon Beast's body began to shrink, reaching a size of ten meters.
Then, with a whoosh, it sped towards the depths of the Chaotic Continent.
In the deepest part of the underground...
A tall and sturdy figure sat there, his entire body shrouded in intertwining chaotic qi. With each breath, a large amount of chaotic qi was inhaled and exhaled. Although this figure was only about twenty meters tall, it seemed to contain a universe within itself.
"Guming, Guming." At this moment, the Chaos Dragon Beast arrived and kept calling out.
"Hmm?"
Soon, the tall and sturdy figure of the Guming Honored Master opened his eyes, looking at his partner with a puzzled expression.
Although outsiders believed that the Chaos Dragon Beast had submitted to the Guming Honored Master, in truth, their statuses were equal, and they were not master and servant.
"I sense a crisis, a very big crisis."
The Chaos Dragon Beast immediately conveyed the crisis it had 'foreseen'.
"Crisis?"
The Guming Honored Master's heart trembled slightly.
Normally, a crisis sensed by the Chaos Dragon Beast would occur within a hundred millennia.
But within this period, he had no plans to leave the Chaotic Continent, nor did he intend to let the Chaos Dragon Beast depart.
In other words, both of them would remain on the Chaotic Continent for the next hundred millennia. Yet, even in this situation, they would still encounter a crisis?
The Chaotic Continent was the domain opened up by the Guming Honored Master; it was equivalent to his dojo lair. Hiding here, even several Chaotic Honored Masters of the same tier would be helpless. Moreover, the Guming Honored Master's strength was already very powerful, coupled with a Chaos Dragon Beast whose strength was almost comparable to the Chaotic Realm...
"We still have some time to prepare." Ancient Honor Master Guming's thoughts raced.
Most of the crises foreseen by the Chaos Dragon Beast would occur within a span of ten thousand to a hundred thousand years. As for within ten thousand years? A thousand, a hundred, or even ten years? Those were extremely rare.
If the crisis truly arrived that quickly, then there was no point in their preparations.
"What level of crisis is it?" Guming asked again.
This question was crucial. If it threatened their lives, then Guming would not hesitate to abandon everything and flee without a second thought.
As for the Chaos Continent and the countless lives that inhabited it, as well as the numerous powerful beings that called it home? Guming would have to put his own life first.
"It's not life-threatening, but I feel that there's a possibility that I will be severely injured." The Chaos Dragon Beast hesitated for a moment before answering softly.
"Not life-threatening?" Guming calmed himself. As long as it wasn't a matter of life and death, he was willing to stay and fight.
He had invested a lot of effort into this Chaos Continent, and the countless lives in the surrounding chaotic void used it as a trading hub, generating vast profits daily. Guming found it hard to just give all of this up.
"I'll contact my friends now and see if there's any major event happening in this region of the chaotic void." Guming immediately set out to contact his friends.
Those who could be considered friends of Guming were all Chaos Honored Masters themselves, with an extremely keen grasp of information and intelligence.
Most crises did not arise out of thin air but exhibited certain signs and omens.
With enough information, one could deduce the source of the crisis and how to face it.
*Virtual World*
Lin Yuan's figure appeared in the virtual world.
"Little Yuan." His parents had been waiting for a long time, and his sister, Lin Yi, sat quietly, unable to contain her excitement as she stood up upon seeing Lin Yuan.
"Are those messages true?" His mother, Lu Qiong, asked in a low voice.
News about the Galaxy Star Master suppressing the Heavenly Feather Tribe's progenitor had already spread throughout the Human Civilization Domain.
At first, Lu Qiong and Lin Shoucheng thought it was just a rumor. Their son was indeed outstanding, but to suppress the Heavenly Feather Tribe's progenitor, an existence that rivaled the strongest beings?
It seemed like a fantasy.
However, the news persisted and gained more credibility, and the virtual world network did not refute it.
Furthermore, Lin Yi had obtained even more concrete intelligence from the Xia family, causing Lin Shoucheng and Lu Qiong to realize that these messages might be true.
"Brother, did you really suppress the Heavenly Feather Tribe's progenitor?" Lin Yi asked, unable to contain her curiosity.
Because of this incident, the previous head of the Xia family had stepped down, and now the family head was none other than her husband.
"It's not like I completely suppressed him." Lin Yuan shook his head.
If one disregarded the factor of the River of Time, Lin Yuan would have been helpless against the Heavenly Feather Tribe's progenitor.
Even with all his trump cards played and his divine abilities like 'World' and 'Tear Heaven' unleashed, he could only give the progenitor a headache at best.
With the difference in their comprehension of the fusion law of space-time, the progenitor simply couldn't pinpoint Lin Yuan's location and could only passively take the beating.
In Lin Yuan's opinion, 'suppressing' meant a comprehensive crushing defeat, where he could overpower the Heavenly Feather Tribe's progenitor even without relying on his comprehension of the fusion law of space-time. That would be true suppression.
"It's not like I suppressed him," Lin Yi said, her eyelids twitching.
So, he had actually fought against a being as powerful as the Heavenly Feather Tribe's progenitor?
*Under the profound depths of the starry sky*
Several dozen majestic figures gathered.
If a century ago, the attempt to besiege the Galaxy Star Master involved only one twelfth-tier being from each of the major peak clan powers.
Now, in the vast universe, aside from the nine strongest beings of the Human Civilization, most of the ultimate twelfth-tier beings had assembled here.
A century ago, in the eyes of these twelfth-tier ultimates, the Galaxy Star Master was merely an annoying little brat.
But now, he had become an existence equal to them, and unlike the other twelfth-tiers, the Galaxy Star Master still had immense room for growth.
He only needed to break through to the ultimate stage to once again achieve a significant transformation and elevation of his power.
"What do we do now?"
"How do we curb the Galaxy Star Master?"
One of the twelfth-tier ultimates spoke up, and at this moment, none of them harbored any thoughts of killing the Galaxy Star Master, because they knew it was impossible.
"Myriad Transformations has gone to contact the two ultimates of the Plunder Clan."
"If we can convince them, we might still have a chance to counter the Galaxy Star Master."
The Prison Clan ultimate spoke slowly.
The two ultimates of the Plunder Clan were both at the peak of the Path Opening Realm. If they were willing to take action against the Human Civilization and the Galaxy Star Master, the situation might not be as dire as they imagined.
Even though the Galaxy Star Master had reached the twelfth-tier, his strength was still at the peak of the Path Opening Realm. If the two Plunder Clan ultimates were willing to get involved, they would at least give the Galaxy Star Master pause.
Additionally, with the dozens of twelfth-tier ultimates present, in theory, the Human Civilization would still face enemies in the future and would not be able to dominate unilaterally.
Of course,
Regardless, it was inevitable that the Human Civilization would become the strongest power in the universe, surpassing even the ancient Universe Clan and Plunder Clan. The former peak clans that had once fought against the Human Civilization could only band together to maintain a stalemate.
"Yes, we also have the ultimates of the Plunder Clan."
The many twelfth-tier ultimates present were slightly startled.
As one of the twelve peak clan powers in the universe, the Plunder Clan would surely not allow the Human Civilization to expand uncontrollably, or it would affect their own development.
Although the Plunder Clan's ultimates had previously withdrawn from the attempt to besiege the Galaxy Star Master, the other twelfth-tier ultimates believed that it was because they didn't bother with a mere eleventh-tier being.
But now, the situation was different, and if the Plunder Clan didn't make a move, they would also face repression from the Human Civilization in the future.
In a sense, the Heavenly Feather Tribe, the Insect Tribe, the Plunder Clan, and other peak clans were now on the same front line, jointly resisting the expansion of the Human Civilization.
As the twelfth-tier ultimates waited, Myriad Transformations' figure solidified, having returned from the Plunder Clan.
"Myriad Transformations, what's the outcome? What did the Plunder Clan ultimates say?"
"It's not bad. If there are any conditions, just put them forward, and we'll do our best to meet them."
The twelfth-tier ultimates asked eagerly.
"Myriad Transformations, how did it go?" The Prison Clan ultimate also inquired.
Myriad Transformations looked at the expectant gazes of the twelfth-tier ultimates and fell silent for a moment.
