Chapter 606: The Vast Cosmic Universe
Profound Yellow Universe
Lin Yuan's second entry felt like traversing a long, endless corridor of space and time.
He finally arrived in a desolate, vast expanse of starry sky.
"Is this inside the universe?"
Lin Yuan looked around, his vast perception rapidly spreading, "The suppression of the laws is extremely severe. The realm of Eightfold Space-Time is hard to traverse here."
In the chaotic outer void, a Great Sage of Chaos could effortlessly traverse even a tenth of a spatial domain.
But here, in this Profound Yellow Universe, even crossing millions of light-years was a significant feat, the distance being far too vast.
"Truly, a universe created by a peerless Great Sage."
Lin Yuan's gaze was filled with admiration. The more he perceived, the more he could sense the terrifying power of this universe. Even with the laws operating on their own, they could still suppress a Great Sage of Chaos.
"In terms of volume, this latter-born universe is far smaller compared to the naturally formed universes that sprouted from the chaotic void."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
With his current strength, he could easily deal a severe blow to a naturally formed universe, causing it to prematurely enter its decline. However, this Profound Yellow Universe was far too formidable, even for him.
The ages had been too long, and the space-time within the universe was gradually collapsing.
One could imagine that during its prime, even a peerless Great Sage would not dare enter lightly.
However, this Profound Yellow Universe was meticulously crafted by the efforts of Emperor Profound Yellow, who had poured in immense effort and dedication.
As for the naturally formed universes, they were simply random creations of the chaotic void, incomparable to the Profound Yellow Universe.
"My current position is here."
After arriving, Lin Yuan observed his surroundings while comparing it to the many regions marked on the Beast Skin Map, finally locking down his location.
"Following this direction will yield the greatest benefits."
Lin Yuan chose a predetermined route. The ultimate destination was Emperor Profound Yellow's Mausoleum, but he would pass through many regions along the way, each containing numerous treasures and rarities.
Other powerful beings entering the Profound Yellow Universe, even those few Great Sages of Chaos, could only subconsciously move toward the center of the universe. As for the gains along the way, it would all come down to luck.
However, Lin Yuan had planned ahead, ensuring he maximized his gains without wasting time.
This way, even if he didn’t obtain anything significant in the mausoleum, the journey wouldn’t be in vain.
"Let's go."
Lin Yuan's figure vanished, reappearing millions of light-years away.
Before he could continue his next traversal—
"Roar!!"
A terrifying roar echoed, and a colossal Octopus-Shaped Celestial Beast emerged from the depths of space-time, its hundreds of tentacles sweeping toward Lin Yuan.
The areas the tentacles passed through rapidly disintegrated.
"Is this... a Profound Yellow Celestial Beast?"
Lin Yuan was startled, immediately recognizing the creature’s identity.
When he had ventured through the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, such spirits were widespread.
In fact, Profound Yellow Celestial Beasts weren’t considered living beings. They were extremely powerful, able to harness the power of the surrounding universe, but their intelligence was extremely low.
To the Profound Yellow Lineage, Profound Yellow Celestial Beasts were merely vessels for nurturing Profound Yellow Crystals.
Profound Yellow Crystals were essential in the cultivation of Profound Yellow Lineage disciples, such as the 'Profound Yellow Body' technique Lin Yuan was cultivating, which required a large quantity of Profound Yellow Crystals.
"The strength of this Profound Yellow Celestial Beast is incredibly powerful, nearly reaching the threshold of the Chaos Realm." Lin Yuan observed, making a judgment in his heart.
In the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, the strength of Profound Yellow Celestial Beasts was capped at the nine-millionth realm, but here, they were several times more powerful, almost reaching the threshold of the Chaos Realm.
"However, it’s normal. Profound Yellow Celestial Beasts can borrow the power of the surrounding universe. This Profound Yellow Universe’s origin is formidable, and even with the space-time collapsing, the enhancement of strength is terrifying."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
A dead camel is still bigger than a horse, let alone the Profound Yellow Universe, which was far more complex than a camel compared to the Profound Yellow Secret Realm.
Rustling.
Lin Yuan watched the Octopus-Shaped Celestial Beast madly attacking him, his mind slightly moving, and the 'World' divine ability silently activated.
The Formless Universal Power Crushed Down, and the Profound Yellow Celestial Beast, whose strength had nearly reached the Chaos Realm threshold, instantly turned to ashes.
The intelligence of Profound Yellow Celestial Beasts was inherently low. Reaching the Chaos Realm threshold only referred to their combat power; fundamentally, they were not Chaos Venerators.
If a normal Chaos Venerator saw Lin Yuan, they would turn and run without hesitation. Even if they couldn’t escape in the end, they wouldn’t charge over fearlessly like this Profound Yellow Celestial Beast.
This was just the most direct difference. Compared to Chaos Venerators, the attacks of Profound Yellow Celestial Beasts were also overly simple, repeating the same few moves. Once understood, they weren’t difficult to counter.
Of course, the current challenge isn't too difficult, given Lin Yuan's overwhelming strength.
If it were an ordinary Chaos Venerable, even a peak Chaos Venerable would find these reckless Xuanhuang Beasts quite troublesome upon their first encounter.
The octopus-shaped Xuanhuang Beast’s physical form collapsed, revealing a massive piece of Xuanhuang Crystal, several kilometers in size.
"This Xuanhuang Crystal?"
Lin Yuan's eyes lit up. This was the first time he had seen such a large piece of Xuanhuang Crystal. Even if he gathered all the Xuanhuang Crystals produced by the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, it wouldn't compare to this one.
"Practicing the Xuanhuang Body to the Chaos Venerable level has its benefits."
Lin Yuan was satisfied. The Xuanhuang Body was a body-refining technique created by the Xuan Emperor. Practicing the Xuanhuang Body required a significant amount of resources.
The resources here were not of a specific type; any resources could serve as nourishment for the Xuanhuang Body.
Next came the Xuanhuang Crystal.
The Xuanhuang Secret Realm was half-integrated with the cosmic space-time, constantly absorbing Chaos Qi to produce new Xuanhuang Crystals.
However, the premature destruction of the home universe left Lin Yuan without a stable source of Xuanhuang Crystals.
After refining the Xuanhuang Body to the peak of the Sovereign Realm, this body-refining technique had stagnated, not because of a lack of resources, but because of a shortage of Xuanhuang Crystals.
"Another few ten thousand of these level Xuanhuang Beasts should be enough to refine the Xuanhuang Body to the Chaos Venerable level."
Lin Yuan collected the several-kiliometer-sized Xuanhuang Crystal, estimating in his mind.
Even if he only refined the Xuanhuang Body to the peak of the Sovereign Realm, his physical strength would be comparable to a normal peak Chaos Venerable.
Once he refined the Xuanhuang Body to the Chaos Venerable level, his physical strength would likely reach the peak of a Chaos Saint.
If he could refine the Xuanhuang Body to the peak of the Chaos Venerable level, his physical strength alone would be enough to suppress the greatest of Chaos Saints.
"Several ten thousand?"
Lin Yuan glanced at the vast starry sky, not finding it an issue.
The Xuanhuang Universe was vast, and the number of Xuanhuang Beasts it produced would certainly exceed several ten thousand.
"Many Venerables have entered the universe this time. We can exchange the Xuanhuang Crystals they have."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
If he could encounter Xuanhuang Beasts, other Chaos Venerables would certainly do so as well.
Xuanhuang Beasts could not leave their realm, and upon death, their physical forms and souls would dissipate, leaving only the Xuanhuang Crystals.
Xuanhuang Crystals were most valuable to the Xuanhuang lineage. If they fell into the hands of other beings, they would be equivalent to Chaos Stones of the same size. Lin Yuan only needed to offer a slight premium, and those Chaos Venerables would line up to trade.
Moving forward, Lin Yuan would always keep an eye out for nearby Xuanhuang Beasts during his travels. If he encountered one, he would deal with it and take the Xuanhuang Crystal. If not, he would follow his planned route and fully utilize his travels.
It wasn’t that the Xuanhuang Crystals were of low value; they were crucial for Lin Yuan’s body refinement. However, so far, they were only effective for him. Even if he didn’t actively seek them out, other Chaos Venerables wouldn’t focus on the Xuanhuang Beasts.
Defeating a Xuanhuang Beast that had reached the Chaos Venerable threshold was not easy for a peak Chaos Venerable. The result of a hard-fought battle might only yield a few thousand or ten thousand Chaos Stones.
For those outside the Xuanhuang lineage, Xuanhuang Crystals were equivalent to Chaos Stones of the same size.
"Here we are."
Lin Yuan arrived in front of a pale green planet, carefully observing it.
This pale green planet emitted no aura, appearing no different from the desolate planets in the Xuanhuang Universe.
However, on the beast-skin map, this pale green planet was marked as the Life Source Planet, a place where Life Essence Stones were born.
Life Essence Stones were rare treasures in the Chaos Void. A palm-sized Life Essence Stone contained sufficient Life Source Force to heal a severely injured Chaos Saint within a short period.
Even with irreversible injuries, as long as the Life Source Force in the Life Essence Stone wasn't depleted, one couldn't die.
Indeed, the Life Divine Stone has always been a highly sought-after but rarely available item in the chaotic void, ranking among the top-tier life-saving artifacts, even the Great Saints of Chaos seek it out constantly.
"Life Divine Stones are rare treasures that fall from the Sea of Life, a mysterious realm in the chaotic void, much like the Thunder Pool, which is normally inaccessible."
"In theory, only the Sea of Life can produce Life Divine Stones, and they are extremely rare. But that's just in theory."
Lin Yuan gazed down at the pale green planet not far away.
Why would an absolute Great Saint go to such lengths to create a secondary universe? It's because the secondary universe they create allows them to establish their own rules.
For example, this Life Source Planet was cultivated by Emperor Xuan, emulating the mysterious Sea of Life, capable of producing Life Divine Stones.
Of course, the Life Source Planet guided by Emperor Xuan is far inferior to the true Sea of Life, and the efficiency of producing Life Divine Stones is much lower.
But after millions of cosmic eras, even with the low efficiency of the Life Source Planet, the accumulation over such a long time should have produced a significant number of Life Divine Stones.
"Let's take a look."
Lin Yuan sent out an avatar to enter the Life Source Planet.
Even though the map on the animal skin described the Life Source Planet as safe, Lin Yuan was unwilling to enter personally. Who knew what changes might have occurred over such a long cosmic era?
Inside the Life Source Planet, Lin Yuan's avatar quickly descended, heading straight for the core.
"Hmm?"
At the core, life energy gathered like a mist, enveloping the surroundings. Lin Yuan had a feeling that in this environment, even the most severe injuries would heal rapidly.
"Is that...?"
Lin Yuan looked deeper and saw a green crystal about three meters in size, floating quietly in the sea of life energy. The mist surrounding it all originated from this green crystal.
"Life Divine Stone?"
"A three-meter Life Divine Stone?"
Lin Yuan was stunned. A palm-sized Life Divine Stone could quickly heal a severely injured Great Saint of Chaos. Now, a three-meter Life Divine Stone? That would be equivalent to tens of thousands of palm-sized Life Divine Stones.
It could save tens of thousands of severely injured Great Saints of Chaos?
"Such a large Life Divine Stone, even if I were surrounded by a group of absolute Great Saints, I wouldn't die in the short term." Lin Yuan's spirits soared.
As long as the life essence within the Life Divine Stone remained, Lin Yuan would be virtually indestructible, far surpassing the physical ability 'Blood Drop Rebirth.'
Unless a 13th-rank life force intervened and erased him from the timeline, no one could instantly kill him.
"How much Chaos Stone would this be worth?"
Lin Yuan composed himself. To be precise, no amount of Chaos Stone could exchange for a Life Divine Stone, as it was a top-tier life-saving artifact, even for Great Saints of Chaos.
"Collect."
Lin Yuan wasted no time and began to gather the Life Divine Stone.
Rumbling.
The entire Life Source Planet trembled. Lin Yuan, standing outside, immediately assisted his avatar in collecting the Life Divine Stone.
Finally, the three-meter Life Divine Stone slowly landed in Lin Yuan's hands.
"A great find."
Lin Yuan's spirits were high. This trip to the Xuanhuang Universe, even without other gains, was worth it just for this Life Divine Stone.
"Besides being a top-tier life-saving artifact, the Life Divine Stone contains the core principles of life essence, which will greatly aid my comprehension of life-related grand rules."
Lin Yuan carefully stored the Life Divine Stone within his internal universe, observing it for a while and gaining insights.
"For now, no rush."
"Go collect the next treasure."
Lin Yuan confirmed that there were no other Life Divine Stones left on the Life Source Planet. After taking the Life Divine Stone, the life mist in the planet began to dissipate rapidly.
Whoosh.
Lin Yuan's figure vanished, reappearing millions of light-years away.
Next, Lin Yuan followed the planned route, passing through areas rich with treasures and rarities, collecting them along the way.
Great Saint-level secret treasures?
Rarities that are hard to find even after millions of cosmic eras?
Only the specific mysterious realms of the chaotic void could produce such great treasures?
Lin Yuan's gains along the way would drive any absolute Great Saint to madness with envy.
The resources accumulated over millions of cosmic eras in the Xuanhuang Universe all fell into Lin Yuan's hands.
