"All creations, the Jie tribe didn't agree?" The ultimate being of the Prison Clan felt his heart drop.
If things had gone well, the two ultimates of the Jie tribe would have agreed to oppose the Galaxy Master, and the Mother Emperor of Myriad Creations wouldn't be in such a state.
"That's right," she confirmed.
"They directly refused me."
The Mother Emperor of Myriad Creations felt helpless. Without even giving her a chance to speak, the two Jie tribe ultimates had turned her away.
The two Jie tribe ultimates didn't even entertain the idea of opposing the Galaxy Master.
"How is that possible?" The Prison Clan's ultimate was incredulous.
Logically, the Jie tribe would only have the most comfortable existence if there was a balance among the major powers.
If their peak clan were to fall, wouldn't the Jie tribe be next in line?
Don't they understand the concept of shared fate?
"I'm not sure either," the Mother Emperor of Myriad Creations shook her head.
She truly couldn't understand why. If the Jie tribe had intended to take advantage of the situation to make demands, they would have at least given her a chance to speak.
But that didn't happen.
Neither the Mother Emperor of Myriad Creations nor the other ultimate beings of the twelve tiers knew that the two Jie tribe ultimates had already shown goodwill towards the Galaxy Master in advance.
Not only did the Jie tribe refuse to participate in the plot against the Galaxy Master, but they also directly informed him of the others' schemes.
In this situation, even when the Galaxy Master reaches the twelfth tier, the Jie tribe won't be in too much trouble.
The most crucial point was that the two Jie tribe ultimates speculated that the Galaxy Master might be the reincarnation of an unparalleled saint. How could they dare to oppose him alongside the other peak clans?
That saint was unmatched, a ruler of the chaotic void.
After a long silence, one of the twelfth-tier ultimate beings spoke up.
"So, what do we do now?"
Upon hearing this, the numerous twelfth-tier ultimate beings surrounding them exchanged uncertain glances.
What could they do?
If the two Jie tribe ultimates truly refused to get involved, they would completely lose their greatest advantage in countering the Galaxy Master.
As for starting a full-scale war against the human civilization at this moment? While it was an option, the specifics of its implementation were too difficult.
Waging war would consume a lot of time, especially a full-scale war. The various peak clans would likely need hundreds or even thousands of years to prepare.
By the time such a long period passed, the Galaxy Master would probably have already attempted his breakthrough, rendering their efforts meaningless.
Additionally, it wasn't realistic for the dozens of peak powers present to attack the territories of the human civilization.
The nine ultimate beings of the human civilization didn't need to engage in direct slaughter; they could simply hide within their clan's ultimate weapons.
Moreover, the twelfth-tier ultimate beings weren't willing to do so. If they truly pushed the nine ultimate beings of the human civilization to the brink, and they fought with their lives on the line, could they guarantee that they would emerge unscathed?
The only use of such an action would be to interfere with the Galaxy Master's breakthrough, but how effective would it be?
"There is another way," a twelfth-tier ultimate being from the Space Clan suddenly spoke up.
The surrounding twelfth-tier ultimate beings immediately pricked up their ears, their eyes turning towards the speaker.
"The Galaxy Master is indeed powerful, but no matter how strong he is, there is still a chance of failure when attempting to reach the ultimate tier," the Space Clan ultimate slowly explained. "We just need to wait for the Galaxy Master to fail in his attempt."
As long as the Galaxy Master failed and perished in his breakthrough, the universe's twelve peak powers would return to a state of balance.
"Wait for the Galaxy Master to fail in his attempt to reach the twelfth tier?" The Mother Emperor of Myriad Creations fell silent once more.
Wasn't that leaving everything to fate?
After a long while, she spoke again, "What if the Galaxy Master successfully reaches the twelfth tier?"
"If he successfully reaches the twelfth tier?" The Space Clan ultimate shook his head. "Then I'm afraid I have no other solution."
Although the so-called solution offered by the Space Clan's ultimate was not really a solution at all, in a sense, it was the only hope the twelfth-tier ultimate beings could cling to.
When attempting to reach the ultimate tier, one had to face the backlash and suppression of the river of time, and even the entire universe.
No matter how strong one's life essence was, there was still a possibility of complete annihilation.
And this was the only way for the current Galaxy Master to be utterly destroyed.
In the Primordial Realm...
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, every aspect of his being having reached the pinnacle of perfection. He was fully prepared to attempt his breakthrough.
"Gate of Myriad Worlds."
Lin Yuan's consciousness sank into his mind, gazing upon the majestic Gate of Myriad Worlds.
At this moment, the first source world coordinate was faintly discernible, emanating an endless, vast aura that was no less grand than the chaotic void.
"After reaching the twelfth tier and stabilizing everything, I will perform the twelfth traversal."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Why did he have to wait until everything was stable before performing the next traversal? The flow of time in the source world was equivalent to that of the chaotic void, so one year there equated to roughly three hundred years in the main universe.
As long as Lin Yuan stayed in that source world for a few years, hundreds or even thousands of years would pass in the main universe.
Therefore, Lin Yuan had to ensure that there were no hidden dangers before he attempted the twelfth traversal.
Otherwise, if something happened in the main universe midway through his traversal, he would have to abort the process.
During the previous eleven traversals, the flow of time in the universe was slower than in the traversed worlds, so no matter how long Lin Yuan stayed in those worlds, not much time would have passed in the universe.
"I can sense that after reaching the twelfth tier, the Gate of Myriad Worlds will undergo some kind of change."
After all, the twelfth tier of life stage, even if it still couldn't accommodate the main body of the Gate of Myriad Worlds, would be able to accept many messages and even abilities related to it.
"Let's begin the breakthrough now."
Lin Yuan's thoughts converged as he immediately started to contact the nine peak experts of human civilization.
Breaking through to the ultimate tier was a crucial moment for any life form, and it was best not to be disturbed in any way.
**Virtual World**
Lin Yuan met with the nine peak experts of human civilization.
"Galaxy Master," Xuan Yuan, the peak expert, looked at Lin Yuan with a hint of speculation in his eyes.
Ever since the battle between the Galaxy Master and the Heavenly Feather Clan's progenitor, they had refrained from disturbing him, giving Lin Yuan more time to adjust his state.
Now that Lin Yuan had taken the initiative to contact them, they were curious about his intentions.
"I plan to attempt the breakthrough to the ultimate tier," Lin Yuan stated, nodding. Having comprehended the seventh level of spacetime enlightenment and given birth to the Chaos Laws, he believed that he had reached the pinnacle of his preparations.
"The breakthrough to the ultimate tier," Xuan Yuan echoed, along with the eight other peak experts, their gazes fixed on Lin Yuan.
Even though they had long anticipated this possibility, they couldn't help but feel tense, perhaps even more so than when they had faced their own breakthroughs.
The nine peak experts were well aware of the impact Lin Yuan's ascension to the twelfth tier would have on human civilization.
At the very least, it would propel human civilization to become the strongest force in the universe, requiring the joint efforts of the other eleven peak clan powers to barely resist.
And if Lin Yuan were even stronger, he would reign over the entire universe, his word becoming law.
This would be far more significant than the birth of another peak expert or even multiple peak experts within human civilization.
Even if human civilization produced ten or twenty more peak experts, it would only pressure the other peak clan powers to unite against them.
But with Lin Yuan at the twelfth tier? That meant the pinnacle of the Dao-Initiation realm, undisputedly the strongest force in the universe.
The Jie Clan, with their two abnormal and handicapped Dao-Initiation realm experts, was able to occupy the most prosperous territories with the smallest number of clan members.
What would it mean for human civilization to have another powerhouse at the pinnacle of the Dao-Initiation realm?
The nine peak experts dared not imagine it.
"Galaxy Master, perhaps you should wait a little longer. The Great Cosmic Shattering is still far off, and there's no rush," Xuan Yuan suggested after a moment's thought. He was genuinely concerned about Lin Yuan attempting the breakthrough.
Failure in breaking through to the ultimate tier meant that even twelfth-tier beings would be unable to resurrect that life.
In fact, Xuan Yuan vaguely sensed that even if Lin Yuan didn't fail, should he perish, they, as twelfth-tier beings, wouldn't be able to resurrect him.
The nature of twelfth-tier beings resurrecting the deceased was to use their vast life essence to retrieve the imprint of a life from the depths of the river of time.
But Lin Yuan... Xuan Yuan had personally witnessed Lin Yuan's form within the river of time, where just one of his hands was enough to drag down the progenitor of the Heavenly Feather Clan.
Should Lin Yuan perish, the twelfth-tier ultimate beings wouldn't be able to retrieve his life imprint, even if it were present in the river of time.
"There's no need to wait," Lin Yuan shook his head.
His current state was at its peak, and even if he waited a thousand or ten thousand years, it would make no difference.
Unless he entered the twelfth tier, he would still have to attempt the twelfth traversal in that source world, regardless of whether he did it in the main universe or not.
Thus, it was better to attempt the breakthrough here.
"Very well," Xuan Yuan nodded in agreement. "We nine will definitely protect you with all our might during your breakthrough."
"Thank you," Lin Yuan expressed his gratitude.
**Human Civilization Territory**
Lin Yuan's figure appeared in a certain location within the territory of human civilization.
The next moment, the auras of the nine peak experts faintly emerged, surrounding him.
Before attempting the breakthrough, Lin Yuan would definitely inform the peak experts of his location.
"Let's begin," Lin Yuan said as he merged his figure with the depths of spacetime, sitting down with his legs crossed.
"First, I'll use the Heart of Spacetime," Lin Yuan's thoughts stirred, and the Heart of Spacetime, obtained from the Demon Jade Space, appeared before him.
The Heart of Spacetime was a precious treasure prepared by the master of the Demon Jade Pavilion for his personal disciples to aid in their breakthrough to the twelfth tier.
Although Lin Yuan believed that his foundations had reached their peak, and his chances of a successful breakthrough were extremely high, he didn't mind having an extra layer of assurance.
Buzz.
Lin Yuan swallowed the Heart of Spacetime, and instantly, he felt his heartbeat change, subtly merging with the spacetime around him.
At this moment, Lin Yuan was one with spacetime, and spacetime was one with Lin Yuan.
"I understand now," Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
He now had a general idea of how the Heart of Spacetime increased the probability of a successful breakthrough to the twelfth tier.
Firstly, it prolonged the time one could stay above the river of time.
Secondly, by merging with spacetime, it reduced the pressure of backlash from the river of time and even the universe itself.
As his thoughts turned, Lin Yuan closed his eyes.
Then, he released the suppression on his life essence, allowing it to leap to the next tier.
"Hm?"
The nine peak experts of human civilization, surrounding him, had subtle changes in their expressions.
At that moment, they vaguely sensed that the cosmic void had transformed, as if returning to its origin, reminiscent of the beginning of time.
Rustle.
In the next moment, the cosmic void within their field of vision was directly torn apart.
