Chapter 639: Arrival

The Mysterious Flame World.
Lin Yuan lifted his gaze to observe the towering figure standing at the pinnacle of the world.
Since forming the Grand Cycle of the Fiery Sun Seed within his body, Lin Yuan had ascended to a higher plane in this Flame World, allowing him to observe the mighty figure with greater detail.
"Truly remarkable, absolutely astonishing."
The more he observed, the more Lin Yuan felt his own insignificance.
The towering figure stood silently, doing nothing, yet the aura it naturally emitted was profoundly moving.
"No wonder the supreme saints of the Chaotic Void spent their entire lives pursuing the traces of Time Life."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Even a casual remark from Time Life could greatly benefit a supreme saint. The mere existence of Time Life itself could provide supreme saints with a broader perspective.
"Unfortunately, I can't stay here for long."
After observing for a while, Lin Yuan noticed his mental will gradually twisting, as if he were about to merge with the surrounding flames. He quickly retreated.
In the Mysterious Flame world, he could observe some of the profound mysteries of the Thirteenth Tier, but he couldn't remain for long, or he would be assimilated.
Once assimilated, Lin Yuan would be completely integrated into the Flame World, unable to return to his physical body.
"If I could get even closer to the Ancestor, I would see even more of the Thirteenth Tier's mysteries." Lin Yuan silently thought.
This was far superior to the drop of Time Blood left by the Demon Jade Tower's master.
The Time Blood came from a Wondrous Life, which was merely a product of the Chaotic Void, not a Thirteenth Tier life form.
Their bloodline, possessing a bit of Time Power, was already at its limit, far inferior to true Time life.
"Over a decade, I have condensed over a hundred Fiery Sun Seeds, but my position in this Flame World hasn't changed. Am I waiting for the next major cycle to form?"
Lin Yuan pondered, having condensed thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three Fiery Sun Seeds. The difficulty of condensing the subsequent Fiery sun seeds had significantly decreased, allowing him to condense a hundred in just a decade, averaging one every one to two months.
After condensing thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three Fiery Sun Seeds, Lin Yuan had little historical reference. In the Fiery Sun Ancient Kingdom, only eighteen royal clans had ever achieved this number of Fiery Sun Seeds.
These eighteen royal clans had spent countless years to condense thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three Fiery Sun Seeds, and they lacked the energy to continue further.
"I'm in no rush, I can take my time."
Lin Yuan thought to himself, even after transcending to the Chaotic Realm, he had no plans to abandon the condensation of Fiery Sun Seeds.
"Xuan Yin!"
In a secluded corner of the Xuan Yin Ancient Kingdom, one of Lin Yuan's avatars sat in meditation.
Before him, drops of Great Sovereign Essence Blood floated, each containing fragments of the Xuan Yin Great Dao.
Lin Yuan contemplated while comparing it to the Fiery sun great dao, then attempted to combine them using the heritage of the Fiery Sun, Xuan Yin, and Chaotic Dao.
"Indeed, comprehending the Xuan Yin Great Dao complements the Fiery Sun, accelerating the evolution of the Chaotic Yin-Yang Taiji."
Lin Yuan observed the drops of Great Sovereign Essence Blood, feeling the profound connection between the Xuan Yin and Fiery Sun.
Ten years ago, when Lin Yuan began to comprehend the Xuan Yin Great Dao, heHe sensed that it would take ten thousand years for the Chaotic Yin-Yang Taiji to evolve.
Now, with the continuous comprehension of the Xuan Yin and its fusion with the fiery sun, Lin Yuan clearly felt that the Chaotic Yin-Yang taiji would evolve in no more than five thousand years.
Ten years of comprehending the Xuan Yin saved him nearly five thousand years of effort. Lin Yuan believed it was worth it.
Comprehending the Xuan Yin Great Dao not only accelerated the evolution of the Chaotic Yin-Yang taiji but also enriched his own comprehension of the rules.
Both the Xuan Yin and Fiery Sun were great dao paths that had given birth to Thirteenth Tier Time Life, making them worthy of Lin Yuan's time and effort to comprehend.
"These past years, I've obtained essence Blood from over two hundred Great sovereigns without causing significant commotion."
Lin Yuan glanced around, feeling quite satisfied.
This result was partly due to his careful approach. Even after taking the essence Blood, he left behind treasures of the same tier, effectively silencing most of the great sovereigns.
Additionally, Lin Yuan's skills were formidable. Perhaps the Heavenly Sovereigns of the Xuan Yin Ancient Kingdom's capital already knew about this, but they hadn't pinpointed his location. Since Lin Yuan only took the Essence Blood without other extreme actions, they were still observing in secret.
"Xuan Yin and Fiery Sun, if perfectly fused, would form a new Thirteenth Tier great dao path, just like the Yin-Yang taiji after the fusion of Yin and Yang."
Lin Yuan observed the drops of Great Sovereign Essence Blood, verifying them against the Fiery sun, and integrating Yin and Yang.
In the capital of the Fiery Sun Ancient Kingdom.
Lin Yuan's true self was also in deep contemplation.
At a certain moment.
Lin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.
"The emperor wants to see me?" Lin Yuan looked towards the palace, then realized, "It seems it's time to head to the new treasure site."
A new treasure site had emerged outside the territories of the six ancient kingdoms. To gain control over this new site, the six ancient kingdoms would have to compete.
The emperor of the Lietong Ancient Kingdom sat upon his throne, while the Flamefiend Venerable and the Guanglie Venerable had been waiting for some time.
"Yinyin, you’ve arrived?"
The emperor of the Lietong Ancient Kingdom looked at Lin Yuan and smiled.
Flamefiend Venerable and Guanglie venerable nodded at Lin Yuan.
Soon, the twelve Venerables who would participate in the treasure land contest gathered.
The emperor of the Lietong Ancient Kingdom said, "I assume you all know about the contest for the treasure lands."
Lin Yuan listened quietly from below.
Each treasure land was a self-contained space, containing a certain number of 'cores.'
The more 'cores' a treasure land had, the greater control over it one could exert.
Of course, this control was relative. Even if one managed to refine all the 'cores' of a treasure land, it might not be enough to fend off other powerful intruders.
For instance, when Lin Yuan was guarding the Black Jade Nest, had the Jihan Venerable and the Beiyin Venerable notmanaged to infiltrate?
But the contest among the six ancient kingdoms would be kept at a certain level of intensity, so the focus would be on refining the 'cores' of the treasure lands.
Two thousand years later, the treasure land would belong to the kingdom that had refined the most 'cores.'
So, the contest wasn't about who was the strongest, but who could find and refine the 'cores' of the treasure lands the fastest.
And it wasn't enough to just refine the 'cores'; one also needed to guard them.
Even after refining a treasure land's 'core,' it could still be re-refined by other Venerables.
"I’ll send you there."
The emperor of the Lietong Ancient Kingdom looked at the twelve Venerables. A decade ago, the capital of the Lietong Ancient Kingdom had established a spatial transmission node outside the newly formed treasure land, allowing for instant transportation through the kingdom’s array.
"This contest is important, but don’t feel pressured if you don’t win," the emperor said, leading the twelve Venerables to the spatial transmission area. He turned and offered a reassuring smile.
Buzz.
In the next moment, Flamefiend Venerable, Lin Yuan, and the others stepped into the spatial transmission array.
The distance between them stretched infinitely, and after nearly twenty breaths, the spatial fluctuations finally ceased.
"We’ve arrived."
Flamefiend Venerable surveyed the surroundings and stepped out of the spatial transmission area.
"The environment is much harsher than the Qingfen Domain," Lin Yuan observed.
Before arriving at this source world, Lin Yuan had used the Gate of Myriad Worlds to observe the entire source world.
From a broader perspective, the source world was a vast continent, and the six ancient kingdoms occupied the central, most prosperous, and richest region of the continent.
This area was rich with countless treasures and rare artifacts, and most of the treasure lands originated here.
Beyond the six ancient kingdoms, the land was barren, which was why the kingdoms fought among themselves but didn’t expand outward.
There was no point in it.
But even in the desolate regions, rare treasures occasionally emerged.
But a first-tier treasure land? Honestly, before this first-tier treasure land appeared, the Venerables of the six ancient kingdoms would never have expected such a rare find in the barren regions.
"According to the intelligence, the newly formed first-tier treasure land is surrounded by a time-reversal zone. Only those who have reached the ninth realm of temporal fusion can pass through the time-reversal zone and enter the treasure land."
Flamefiend Venerable said softly.
The appearance of the treasure land had drawn the attention of nearby Great Venerables, but the time-reversal zone had sent most of them back.
Reaching the ninth Realm of temporal fusion was difficult, even in this source world where the laws were easier to comprehend. Only Venerables could typically achieve this realm.
And Venerables? They wouldn’t waste time exploring the desolate regions beyond the six ancient kingdoms. The benefits of serving a Venerable in one of the kingdoms were too significant to waste time in the barren lands.
"Once inside the treasure land, you must disperse immediately and search for the 'cores' with all speed. Notify me once found, and I will handle the refinement."
Flamefiend Venerable said.
His rank was the highest, and his speed in refining the 'cores' was unmatched. Even if other Venerables from other kingdoms discovered the treasure land, the chances of guarding the 'core' were the best.
"No problem."
Lin Yuan nodded.
The other Venerables also nodded.
Seeing this, Flamefiend Venerable’s mind eased.
The contest for the treasure lands was about cooperation, not brute strength.
"Given the emperor’s regard for Lin Yuan, I should take extra care."
Flamefiend Venerable glanced at Lin Yuan, his thoughts lingering.
