In the Human Universe, within the Martial Arts Evolution Tower...
"Three million Chaos Stones," Lin Yuan assessed his wealth.
The Chaos Stones he currently possessed only numbered in the thousands, and they were given to him by a peak Dominator, Cang WeiYang.
To purchase the golden box related to the Xuanhuang Clan, Lin Yuan intended to gather as close to three million Chaos Stones as possible.
"Looks like I'll have to sell some weapons," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
He had a surplus of weapons, most of which were at the Path-Opening Realm level, with a few at the Dominator Realm level, originating from Cang WeiYang.
"First, I'll send these treasures to the Ancient Chaos Continent and sell them to see if they're enough," Lin Yuan selected a portion of the unused weapons and treasures from his treasury.
If the Chaos Stones obtained from selling these weapons and treasures were still insufficient, Lin Yuan planned to sell a few Dominator Realm wondrous trees.
As for the Chaos Realm treasure? He would rather not sell it if he didn't have to, after all, Lin Yuan could use it once he entered the Dominator Realm.
"I still lack Chaos Stones," Lin Yuan thought.
In fact, with Lin Yuan's current understanding of Chaos Qi, he could easily refine Chaos Stones directly from the chaotic Chaos Qi, just like a Chaos Honored One.
However, doing it was one thing, but efficiency was another matter entirely.
Without the powerful mental will and the support of an inner universe like that of a Chaos Honored One, the number of Chaos Stones Lin Yuan could refine in a year would likely not exceed ten.
"Go,"
Lin Yuan raised his hand and tore open a spatial rift that penetrated all the spatial layers, connecting the universe to the chaotic void.
He then threw the selected treasures into the rift, and with a move of his mind, an incarnation condensed outside the spatial rift in the chaotic void, receiving the numerous treasures.
Even in his incarnated state, Lin Yuan possessed peak Path-Opening Realm combat power, which was more than enough to roam the chaotic void.
With a wave of his hand, the dozens of meters-long spatial rift before him quickly healed.
After tearing through all the spatial layers of the universe, Lin Yuan could easily create a permanent spatial rift if he wished.
"Each strand of Boundary-Breaking Source Power requires ninety days to accumulate, which is already the limit and cannot be further improved?" Lin Yuan suddenly thought.
Ever since he reached the twelfth stage, Lin Yuan had been trying to increase the speed of accumulating Boundary-Breaking Source Power to tear open even larger permanent spatial rifts.
However, the efficiency of the Myriad Worlds Gate in accumulating Boundary-Breaking Source Power remained at one strand every ninety days, with no further increase.
"Could there be some requirement for absorbing Boundary-Breaking Source Power that I'm unaware of?" Lin Yuan pondered.
Martial Arts Evolution Tower.
Lin Yuan actively connected to the Wisdom Goddess.
"Respected Strongest Human, the Wisdom Goddess is pleased to serve you," the solemn and cold voice of the Wisdom Goddess echoed.
The three goddesses of human civilization originated from the countless treasures that fell from beyond the universe, marking one of the greatest opportunities for human civilization. They possessed mental power and computational power comparable to Dominator Realm beings.
Hence, they could support the nearly limitless decisions of human civilization.
"Upload the twelfth stage of the Path-Opening Chapter," Lin Yuan said.
He had basically perfected the twelfth stage of the Martial Arts Path-Opening Chapter and could upload it.
In fact, whether or not the twelfth stage of the Martial Arts Path-Opening Chapter was uploaded didn't make much difference, as aside from Lin Yuan's demise, no other martial arts cultivator could reach the twelfth stage of Martial Arts.
"I can create branches of Martial Arts when I have the time," Lin Yuan thought.
A single evolution path was akin to a grand avenue, and if this avenue was wide enough, it could give birth to numerous branches.
These branches could also be considered grand avenues, branching out from the foundation of Martial Arts and heading in different directions, equally capable of producing twelfth-stage existences.
Of course, the prerequisite was that this grand avenue had a thick enough foundation. Just like the branches of a river, if it was only a small stream, it wouldn't go far even with branches. But if it were a mighty river, even a mere branch would be wider than a small stream.
"The branch avenues derived from Martial Arts as their foundation can also benefit me," Lin Yuan realized during his ultimate leap.
It was a way to maintain himself from falling, which was far more difficult than extending his lifespan indefinitely.
With the upload of the twelfth stage of the Martial Arts Path-Opening Chapter, the Martial Arts Evolution path smoothly became the number one evolution path of human civilization.
This event caused no surprises and was even considered extremely normal and reasonable by the countless evolvers of human civilization, including the nine strongest beings.
The Martial Arts Evolution path had ranked fifth among human evolution paths after only uploading the eleventh stage, and now with the twelfth stage uploaded, it would be strange if it weren't in the top spot.
Martial Arts Evolution Tower.
"Tower Master, this is a list of all those who have contributed to human civilization since its birth and have already passed away."
Zhang Tianzhi stood respectfully below, having joined the Martial Arts Evolution Tower as soon as he could as the first-ranked eighth stage in the Martial Arts Evolution path.
Although limited by his strength, his position wasn't high, but he had still managed to enter Lin Yuan's sight.
Lin Yuan glanced at the list, which recorded the names of countless humans, numbering in the billions.
"These people have contributed to human civilization and deserve to be resurrected," Lin Yuan replied.
In the past, human civilization had several prerequisites for resurrecting deceased evolvers: potential, power, and contribution. All three conditions were essential, taking into consideration the nine strongest beings of human civilization.
The strongest beings would face backlash from the universe when resurrecting the dead. While resurrecting one or two individuals was manageable, the backlash would intensify with larger numbers, and even the strongest beings could only withstand so much.
However, Lin Yuan's life essence was now exceptionally robust. Even if he resurrected eleventh-stage beings, the backlash he would face could be easily ignored and offset. Hence, he intended to lower the threshold for resurrection and extend the time frame for eligibility.
It was a well-deserved benefit for the departed ancestors of human civilization.
Several days later...
All the ninth-stage and above evolvers in human civilization gathered outside the Martial Arts Evolution Tower.
When the strongest beings resurrected the dead, they had to go against the flow, involving the manifestation of temporal rules. Other evolvers could gain insights by witnessing this process.
In the past, when the strongest beings of various Evolution Towers resurrected the dead, a large crowd of evolvers would gather to observe. Lin Yuan had even witnessed Summer Respect's resurrection firsthand.
"Is the Galaxy Dominator going to resurrect the deceased members of our human civilization?"
"I heard that the Galaxy Dominator's scope of resurrection this time is unprecedented. Anyone who has contributed to human civilization, regardless of their potential or strength, will be on the resurrection list."
"My goodness, with so many people being resurrected, how much backlash will there be?"
Countless evolvers of human civilization whispered among themselves. Now that human civilization occupied the entire universe, there was no longer a shortage of resources.
The Xuanyuan Dominator and Summer Respect also arrived, intending to help Lin Yuan shoulder some of the pressure, but they were refused.
"Let's begin."
Lin Yuan had resurrected his deceased loved ones and friends in the Fairy World before, but the river of time in the Fairy World was vastly different from that of the universe.
Strictly speaking, the river of time in the main universe was merely a tributary of the chaotic void's river of time.
Buzz...
Lin Yuan began to go against the flow, possessing the resurrection list and a thorough understanding of the life essence of every evolver who needed to be resurrected. He started scooping individuals out of the vast river of time.
"Awaken."
With a gentle exertion of force, Lin Yuan resurrected over a hundred billion evolvers, bringing them back to the present timeline.
In every moment, over a hundred billion evolvers were resurrected. Within just a few breaths, the number of resurrected evolvers surpassed ten trillion.
"How is it that the universe's backlash against the Galaxy Dominator doesn't even create a ripple?" The numerous eleventh-stage evolvers were astounded.
With the resurrection of a hundred billion lives, the river of time in the universe almost boiled locally, and the overwhelming backlash surged towards the Galaxy Dominator. Yet, it failed to even stir Lin Yuan's clothes.
"His life essence is too strong. I feel that if our life essence wasn't outside the river of time, the Galaxy Dominator could even resurrect us," said one of the evolvers.
The nine Dominators, including Xuanyuan, were equally amazed. Having performed resurrections themselves, they understood the nature of the universe's backlash. Resurrecting a hundred billion lives would directly inflict severe damage, even to the strongest beings. Yet, Lin Yuan was resurrecting lives by the hundreds of billions with each attempt.
In a short while, within just a few breaths, the number of resurrected lives surpassed ten trillion.
"I... I've been resurrected?"
"Has our human civilization reached its ultimate stage?"
Countless evolvers from the era before the Stellar Calendar widened their eyes in disbelief. In their time, human civilization had not yet produced twelfth-stage beings, and they never imagined they would have a chance at resurrection.
"I... I've been resurrected, too?"
A cold and indifferent man named Ou Yin was astonished. He had fallen at the hands of Qingyu in the Black Abyss, and given his potential, talent, and strength, he had no qualifications for resurrection.
"Galaxy Dominator..."
Ou Yin looked up and saw a majestic figure slowly lowering his head to glance in his direction, a kind smile on his face.
"Did the Galaxy Dominator obtain the legacy I left behind on the battlefield of the alien race?" Ou Yin immediately understood the cause and effect, and a surge of emotions filled his heart.
"It's almost done."
Lin Yuan scanned the countless resurrected lives crowding the area and then turned to the many eleventh-stage evolvers beside him. He assigned them the task of managing these resurrected lives before disappearing from the scene.
Martial Arts Evolution Tower...
Lin Yuan sat with his legs crossed.
"Everything is almost prepared." Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. "I can now explore that origin world in peace."
With that thought, Lin Yuan divided his attention, sinking into the depths of his mind and gazing upon the majestic Myriad Worlds Gate.
