Chapter 529: Fierce Sun Encompassing the Divine (Seeking Subscription)
Only half a day had passed.
Lin Yuan had condensed nine Fierce Sun Seeds.
He had regained the level that his original body had achieved after hundreds of years of effort.
"There's no noticeable change."
Lin Yuan observed the nine Fierce Sun Seeds within him.
"I suppose it's because I had originally condensed nine Fierce Sun Seeds. Even though they collapsed later, my realm remained the same. So, even though I've now restored the nine Fierce Sun Seeds, there isn't a significant difference."
Lin Yuan pondered.
"Then, let's begin condensing the tenth Fierce Sun Seed."
Lin Yuan continued his cultivation.
While there was only a difference of one seed between nine and ten Fierce Sun Seeds, it was akin to a heavenly chasm.
The difficulty increased exponentially.
His original body had been stuck at nine Fierce Sun Seeds for an indefinite period, unable to condense the tenth one.
Among the Fierce Sun Seeds, the first one was the hardest to condense, followed by the tenth and the hundredth.
Two hours later, the tenth Fierce Sun Seed slowly took form.
"What's this?"
Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly.
The ten Fierce Sun Seeds slowly rotated within his body, resonating with the four directions of the world, causing a surge of even denser world rules to wash over him.
The rule fluctuations of the Source World were inherently different from what was described in the Chaotic Void, and they deeply affected Lin Yuan. Now that the rule fluctuations were ten times denser, Lin Yuan almost fell into a state of 'enlightenment' against his will.
"Is this the use of the Fierce Sun Seeds?"
Lin Yuan calmed his mind and felt perplexed.
It increased the extent of his perception of rule fluctuations. Even if this effect wasn't as good as directly improving his aptitude, it was still extremely terrifying.
Aptitude influenced all aspects. For example, Lin Yuan's heaven-defying aptitude not only gave him a far superior perception of rules compared to other life forms but also yielded incredible results in everything he did.
Take learning ability or creative ability, for instance.
Even so, the ability to directly enhance the perception of rule fluctuations was extremely rare.
In the main universe, some special life forms were naturally more perceptive to certain rules than others, but this was an innate ability—a talent.
Some treasures and elixirs could enhance perception toward certain rules, but their effects were temporary, and such supreme treasures and elixirs were exceptionally rare.
As for supreme treasures that could permanently enhance perception toward certain rules? They did exist, but they were so coveted that even Chaotic Honored Ones and Chaotic Great Sages would go to extreme lengths to obtain them.
And now, the *Fierce Sun Encompassing the Divine Technique* that anyone in the Fierce Sun Ancient Country could cultivate actually had a similar effect?
Moreover, ten Fierce Sun Seeds increased the perception of rule fluctuations by tenfold. What about twenty seeds, or thirty?
"Fierce Sun Seeds… this world… this Source World…" Lin Yuan's expression turned slightly solemn.
The ten Fierce Sun Seeds floated within his body, vaguely communicating with the four directions of the world, making Lin Yuan a 'favorite' of the rules' operation.
Hence, the extent of his perception of the rules had increased so dramatically.
"Under the influence of ten Fierce Sun Seeds, it'll take me at most a thousand years to reach the peak of the seventh level of the Time and Space Realm."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Initially, he had believed that it would take him at least several tens of thousands of years to reach the peak of the seventh level.
Of course, several tens of thousands of years was already an incredibly short period. For those at the twelfth level of the Path Opening Realm or the Dominator Realm, a brief nap might last several tens of thousands of years. Advancing from the middle stage to the peak of the seventh level might not be achievable even after several universe eras.
"Never mind. Even if the *Fierce Sun Encompassing the Divine Technique* has hidden dangers, the improvement in my perception of rules is real. I'll continue condensing Fierce Sun Seeds. At worst, I'll just give up this physical body."
Lin Yuan had made up his mind.
Even an average person who condensed ten Fierce Sun Seeds would become a genius in terms of rule perception, let alone someone like Lin Yuan, who possessed a heaven-defying aptitude.
The combination of the two far exceeded the sum of their individual effects.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to continue cultivating and condense more Fierce Sun Seeds, his expression stirred.
He looked toward the outside of the cave abode.
"Are you alright now, Yan?" A male voice sounded, belonging to none other than Yu Chaolong, the father of his original body, Yu Yan, and the patriarch of the Yu Family.
Yu Chaolong was at the perfect eleventh level. He had long purchased a suitable path from the Fierce Sun Ancient Country and could enter the Self Realm at any time.
"I'm fine," Lin Yuan replied as he stood up and opened the door to the cave abode. His father, Yu Chaolong, and his mother were both standing outside, their faces filled with worry.
"That's good," Yu Chaolong said, observing Lin Yuan's expression and heaving a slight sigh of relief. Then, his expression turned angry as he said, "That little girl from the Yu Family is truly venomous. She's willing to go to such lengths just to become a disciple of Qing Fen Hou."
"Yes," Lin Yuan's mother agreed, giving him a glance.
The relationship between his original body, Yu Yan, and Dong Yang Meng was unknown to the other family members, not even Yu Chaolong. However, his mother was aware of it.
"It's all in the past now," Lin Yuan said with a slight smile. Everything his original body had experienced was because of the Dong Yang Family and Dong Yang Meng.
But Lin Yuan didn't really mind. At most, he would just wait until he had sufficient strength to crush the entire Dong Yang Family.
"I've already told your grandfather about this matter. He'll definitely stand up for you," Lin Yuan's mother, Wei Chi Ling, said.
The Wei Chi Family was a first-rate family in the Qing Fen Domain. Even though they had declined, they still held considerable influence.
The Dong Yang Family had attacked Lin Yuan with unscrupulous means to achieve their goals. If this matter reached the ears of Qing Fen Hou, he might directly cancel the Dong Yang Family's qualification to become his disciples.
In this situation, he had effectively lost his qualification to become a disciple under Qing Fen Hou.
Even if, in the end, Qing Fen Hou came to despise the Dongyang Family's actions and canceled their eligibility, he still wouldn't take Lin Yuan under his wing. This had become a certainty.
"Leave the matter of the Dongyang Family to us. You just focus on recovering, son." Father Yu Chaolong spoke up.
Without the Yu Family as a competitor, the Dongyang Family still hadn't become a first-rate family, and the Yu Family would naturally take this opportunity to strike.
"Actually, there's no need to fight the Dongyang Family to the death," Lin Yuan said after some thought.
The Yu Family and the Dongyang Family were both second-rate families, with similar strengths. If the Yu Family were to engage in an all-out battle with the Dongyang Family, it would be akin to killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of their own.
In Lin Yuan's opinion, there was no need for such a move. With his rate of growth, he would soon surpass the Dongyang Family by a large margin.
By then, dealing with the Dongyang Family would be as easy as a thought.
Although Lin Yuan had just descended into this world, he had inherited Yu Yan's memories and thus held some favor towards the Yu Family. At the very least, he didn't want to see the members of the Yu Family dying needlessly.
"You're not going to fight the Dongyang Family?"
"After what they've done to our son, I will never let them off the hook." Father Yu Chaolong narrowed his eyes. "I've already discussed this matter with the elders. The Dongyang Family will definitely pay a price for this."
Hearing this, Lin Yuan didn't try to dissuade him further.
After all, he couldn't very well tell his father that he wouldn't need long to grow strong enough to crush the Dongyang Family. Such words would sound like a pipe dream to Yu Chaolong.
The Yu Family had a lineage that stretched back countless tens of thousands of years, always on par with the Dongyang Family. How could they rely solely on the strength of one person?
"I need some cultivation resources," Lin Yuan said.
Cultivating the martial path required a large number of resources, and with the help of the Yu Family's connections, Lin Yuan wouldn't need to gather them himself, at least not in the initial stages.
As for the middle and later stages? Once his strength recovered to a certain extent and he gained the power to protect himself, as long as he revealed even a slight hint of his abilities, a large number of resources would naturally come his way.
"Resources? That's not a problem." Father Yu Chaolong's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but he eventually nodded.
"Then we'll take our leave. If there's anything you need, just let your father know," Yu Chaolong said, and then he left with Wei Chi Ling.
Lin Yuan watched them disappear before continuing to condense the Fierce Sun Seeds.
[*Your comprehension defies the heavens. By cultivating the Fierce Sun Encompassing the Divine Technique, you've condensed twenty Fierce Sun Seeds.*]
[*Your comprehension defies the heavens. By cultivating the Fierce Sun Encompassing the Divine Technique, you've condensed thirty Fierce Sun Seeds.*]
Outside the cave abode.
Yu Chaolong and Wei Chi Ling sat facing each other.
"Can your Wei Chi Family really bring this matter to the attention of Qing Fen Hou?" Yu Chaolong asked.
The Wei Chi Family had declined, or else he wouldn't have been able to marry the direct descendant of a first-rate family.
"We do have a way to bring it to his attention. Even if Qing Fen Hou himself doesn't find out, his followers will. But even if they do, it's unlikely that they'll do anything to the Dongyang Family," Wei Chi Ling said, shaking her head.
To the high and mighty Qing Fen Hou, only results mattered. As for the process? What did it matter if a competitor was assassinated?
"Then what you said earlier..." Yu Chaolong blinked.
"I was just comforting our son, wasn't I?" Wei Chi Ling glared at Yu Chaolong.
"I see." Yu Chaolong nodded.
"It's a pity that our son only managed to condense nine Fierce Sun Seeds. If he had been able to condense ten, he wouldn't have needed to compete with the Dongyang Family at all and could have directly become a disciple of Qing Fen Hou."
Wei Chi Ling sighed.
Nine Fierce Sun Seeds and ten were completely different concepts.
To condense ten Fierce Sun Seeds before the age of five hundred was an achievement that would even catch the attention of the exalted Qing Fen Hou.
Such a genius, if assassinated before their time, would prompt Qing Fen Hou to intervene and punish the offending family.
In simpler terms, if Yu Yan had condensed ten Fierce Sun Seeds, he could have walked into the Dongyang Family's headquarters and walked out unscathed.
"Let's find some time to comfort him," Yu Chaolong said after a moment's thought. After being affected by the corrosion of the black pendant's power, having several Fierce Sun Seeds shattered, and sustaining injuries, it would take Yu Yan decades to condense any new Fierce Sun Seeds.
In Yu Chaolong's opinion, Lin Yuan's future potential would likely be greatly diminished.
"Ten Fierce Sun Seeds? When was the last time our Qing Fen Domain produced such a genius?"
Wei Chi Ling shook her head. Back then, the Wei Chi Family had risen to prominence because they had produced a genius who condensed ten Fierce Sun Seeds before the age of five hundred.
"Let's not talk about that. Even if Yan can't condense ten Fierce Sun Seeds, he's still our son."
Yu Chaolong spoke with determination.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, several months went by.
[*Your comprehension defies the heavens. By cultivating the Fierce Sun Encompassing the Divine Technique, you've condensed three thousand six hundred and eighty-nine Fierce Sun Seeds.*]
Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes, countless fiery suns floating within his gaze.
