Chapter 601: The Great Sages
Chapter 601: The Great Sages
Yiyun Void Realm.
Myriad Rivers Chaos Continent, Myriad Dao Pavilion.
"Recently, several nearby void realms have been quite restless," a few deputy pavilion masters whispered to each other.
The Myriad Dao Pavilion spans numerous void realms, but only the pavilion master is directly appointed by the Eye of Myriad Laws.
As for the deputy pavilion masters? They handle most of the pavilion's affairs on a daily basis, while the pavilion master only deals with uncertain evolutionary paths and communications with the Eye of Myriad Laws.
"Yes, many venerables have passed by recently," one of the deputy pavilion masters said with a sigh.
The Myriad Rivers Chaos Continent was established by Venerable Myriad Rivers, but apart from him, it was rare to see another chaos venerable for millions or even tens of millions of years.
However, in recent times, chaos venerables have been arriving from the surrounding void realms.
"Rumors say that the post-formation universe was created by an extraordinary existence, which is why it has attracted so many venerables," the deputy pavilion masters exchanged information. Due to their connection with the Myriad Dao Pavilion, they had access to a lot of information.
"If it weren't for the gathering of many venerables, I would have gone to take a look myself," another venerable said, his tone tinged with curiosity.
As deputy pavilion masters, they were only Sovereign Realm beings and dared not approach the vicinity of the Xuanhuang Universe.
That place was filled with venerables, and Sovereign Realm beings were far too fragile compared to them.
"Not just venerables," the pavilion master said at that moment.
He had been listening to the deputy pavilion masters' discussions and finally spoke up.
"Not just venerables?"
"Pavilion master, what do you mean by that?" the deputy pavilion masters' hearts skipped a beat.
Compared to the deputies, the pavilion master received direct orders from the Eye of Myriad Laws and had access to more information.
"Several Great Sages have already headed there," the pavilion master said.
"Great Sages have gone there?"
The deputy pavilion masters swallowed hard.
A void realm typically had a few venerables, but a Great Sage? One might not even find one in hundreds or thousands of void realms.
"Are you sure?"
The pavilion master glanced at the deputy pavilion masters and was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.
He immediately stood up and vanished from the spot.
"What happened to the pavilion master?"
The deputy pavilion masters looked at each other, unsure of what had transpired.
Deep within the Myriad Dao Pavilion.
Time and space slowly rotated, forming a stable temporal pathway.
A young man walked out of the portal.
A massive eye then materialized, overlooking the young man, "Galaxy, you have arrived."
The pavilion master of the Myriad Dao Pavilion stood respectfully beside the young man, carefully observing him.
Only beings of the Great Sage level or higher would be personally greeted by the Eye of Myriad Laws.
In other words, the young man before him was a Chaos Great Sage?
And from the Eye of Myriad Laws' attitude, it seemed this young man was no ordinary Chaos Great Sage.
"Thank you."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly. The moment he stepped out of the temporal pathway, he felt the distance between his essence spirit in the Star Tear Fragment World and himself widen significantly.
"Then I won’t see you out."
The Eye of Myriad Laws looked at Lin Yuan and quickly dissipated.
"Sir."
The pavilion master of the Myriad Dao Pavilion immediately stepped forward, respectfully saying, "This way is the exit."
For a 'noble guest' personally welcomed by the Eye of Myriad Laws, the pavilion master dared not show any disrespect. The Eye of Myriad Laws not seeing Lin Yuan out didn’t mean he could ignore him.
"Alright."
Lin Yuan nodded.
In truth, with his mastery of time and space, he could easily break free from this temporal realm, but there was no need. It was better to be polite.
Soon, Lin Yuan reached the exit of the Myriad Dao Pavilion.
"Is this the Myriad Rivers Chaos Continent?" Lin Yuan asked casually.
"Yes," the pavilion master of the Myriad Dao Pavilion immediately nodded.
Once Lin Yuan disappeared from the Myriad Dao Pavilion, the pavilion master let out a deep breath.
"Who is this Great Sage? Galaxy? I’ve never heard of him," the pavilion master thought.
However, he didn’t dwell on it. The chaos void was vast, and while Chaos Great Sages were rare in a single void realm, there were still a few in the entire universe.
The pavilion master wasn’t even a venerable, so it was only natural he didn’t recognize this Great Sage.
"Pavilion master."
When the pavilion master returned, the deputy pavilion masters looked at him curiously.
The pavilion master’s sudden disappearance and the lingering changes in his expression had piqued their interest.
"Where were we?"
The pavilion master glanced at the deputy pavilion masters.
"You mentioned that Great Sages have also headed there," one of the deputy pavilion masters said immediately.
"Right."
The pavilion master nodded but didn’t elaborate further.
He had personally welcomed a Great Sage, but this was a secret of the Myriad Dao Pavilion. Even if the Eye of Myriad Laws hadn’t instructed him to keep it quiet, he wouldn’t dare spread the word.
"Yiyun Void Realm?"
Lin Yuan took a step, leaving the Myriad Rivers Chaos Continent and entering the chaos void.
"The Xuanhuang Universe is in that direction."
Even without specific coordinates, Lin Yuan could sense the changes in the beast skin map after arriving in the Yiyun Void Realm. The map’s glow intensified, and if Lin Yuan hadn’t suppressed it, it might have directly responded to the Xuanhuang Universe.
At least thirty Chaos Venerables had gathered there.
Lin Yuan observed from a distance. With his profound understanding of space and time, the auras of Chaos Venerables could not escape his perception.
"Hmm? There are also Chaos Holy Ones? Are they the Shadow Demon and the Nine Phoenix Chaos Holy Ones?"
Lin Yuan continued to sense, his expression becoming peculiar.
Chaos Venerable Gu Ming had mentioned the Xuang Huang Universe to him but did not mention these two Holy Ones. This wasn't surprising; ordinary Chaos Venerables could at most sense the aura of a later-born universe. Whether there were Chaos Holy Ones or if they could identify them was uncertain.
"I didn't expect to have such a deep connection with these two Holy Ones?"
Lin Yuan's eyes widened in surprise. His home universe had been destroyed due to the battle between these two Holy Ones. Now, the Xuang Huang Universe had emerged, and he had encountered these two Holy Ones again?
Back then, compared to these two Holy Ones, Lin Yuan was like a firefly to the moon. The aftermath of their battle was enough to keep him busy.
But now?
Lin Yuan wasn't sure if he could surpass them, but he was at least on par with them.
"Perhaps the Xuang Huang Universe could emerge because of these two Holy Ones?"
Lin Yuan speculated, "Besides the Shadow Demon and the Nine Phoenix, there are two other Holy Ones here as well."
His understanding of space and time had reached the eighth realm, a domain belonging to the Holy Ones, allowing him to detect the auras of Holy Ones.
A moment later.
Lin Yuan entered the desolate void and saw a corner of the Xuang Huang Universe.
Through this corner, Lin Yuan could faintly sense the vast and unfathomable expanse of the entire Xuang Huang Universe.
"No wonder they are all waiting outside; they are waiting for the outer space-time of the Xuang Huang Universe to collapse on its own," Lin Yuan mused.
The Xuang Huang Universe had existed for too long.
Although it was far larger and more extensive than the naturally formed universes within the chaotic void, it lacked the characteristic of being indestructible and regenerative.
Without its master's maintenance and the wear of time, the space-time of the Xuang Huang Universe was slowly collapsing.
This time, the Xuang Huang Universe's emergence was ostensibly due to the influence of the Shadow Demon and the Nine Phoenix Holy Ones, but in reality, it was inevitable.
Once the space-time collapsed to a certain extent, it would reveal itself even without external force.
Of course, a dying camel is still bigger than a horse. Even a gradually collapsing Xuang Huang Universe was not something a few Holy Ones could shatter and enter together.
The Shadow Demon Holy One and the Nine Phoenix Holy One had tried to force their way in, but they failed and caused the space-time fluctuations to spread, attracting many Venerables and other Holy Ones.
"Within two years, the outer space-time will completely collapse, and then we can enter."
Lin Yuan observed for a while and came to this conclusion.
Forcing entry before the collapse would be as difficult as climbing to the heavens and could even trigger the Xuang Huang Universe's innate backlash.
This was why the Shadow Demon Holy One and the Nine Phoenix Holy One stopped their attack after the first strike.
"I'll wait as well."
Lin Yuan hid in a layer of space-time, dividing a sliver of his consciousness to sense the collapse of the Xuang Huang Universe's space-time, while the rest of his energy was devoted to cultivation and enlightenment.
During the wait, no strong beings would make a move. Those who could cultivate to the Chaos Realm were not ones to act rashly. With the door of the Xuang Huang Universe not yet open, they wouldn't fight each other.
Lin Yuan was no exception. Time was precious, and every moment spent in cultivation would enhance his strength, giving him more means to face his enemies.
"Damn it." The Shadow Demon Holy One merged with the space-time, his eyes coldly observing the Chaos Venerables rushing over, as well as the other two Chaos Holy Ones besides himself and the Nine Phoenix.
"This later-born universe was discovered by me first."
The Shadow Demon Holy One was extremely unwilling.
Had he known that attacking and revealing a corner of the universe would cause such a significant reaction, he wouldn't have done it.
But it was too late now.
The emergence of the Xuang Huang Universe had been completely exposed.
It was impossible to suppress.
The Shadow Demon Holy One wasn't worried about the Chaos Venerables rushing over to grab a piece of the pie.
What he feared were other Chaos Holy Ones of the same level. As time passed, more and more Chaos Holy Ones would arrive.
"Shadow Demon."
The Nine Phoenix Holy One's attention was mostly on the Shadow Demon Holy One.
If they could enter the Xuang Huang Universe this time, the Nine Phoenix Holy One's primary goal would be to obtain the insights and explorations of the thirteen-stage cognition left by the creator of this later-born universe.
Secondly, he wanted the Shadow Demon Holy One to pay a heavy price.
Time slowly passed.
Two years went by.
During these two years, five more Chaos Holy Ones arrived.
In reality, it was extremely rare for a Chaos Holy One to appear in thousands or even tens of thousands of void domains.
This time, the Xuang Huang Universe had only emerged for a few years, yet it had gathered nine Chaos Holy Ones. Most of these Chaos Holy Ones had arrived through special means, at great cost.
Rumbling.
Two years had passed.
A corner of the Xuang Huang Universe had collapsed to its final stage.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan temporarily stopped his cultivation and observed from a distance.
Just as the outer space-time of the Xuang Huang Universe completely collapsed,
The inner aura began to flow out, and Lin Yuan's expression suddenly changed.
Because the beast skin map he possessed had changed again.
