Chapter 652: The Unthinkable Glory
Chapter 652: The Unthinkable Glory
After refining the giant core pillar, Lin Yuan once again felt the faint sense of control over the treasure land.
Whether it was a regular core pillar or a giant core pillar, they were essentially key nodes of the treasure land.
Theoretically, refining all these nodes would grant control over the entire treasure land.
"The core of the Black Jade Nest consists of only sixty-three nodes, while this treasure land has over three hundred nodes, including three giant cores," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
There was no doubt that this newly formed treasure land was the pinnacle among the many first-class treasure lands controlled by the six ancient nations.
Among the same-tiered treasure lands, there were only six, and three of them were in the hands of the Great Fuxu Ancient Nation.
"Using the golden mist is no small feat," Lin Yuan mused.
So far, the research on the golden mist by the Liye Ancient Nation had only progressed to the point of slow absorption through the physical body.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged before the giant core pillar, reflecting on his brief exchange with the Vexu Celestial Venerable.
"Vexu Celestial Venerable willingly relinquished this giant core pillar, fearing a mutual destruction. Perhaps he wanted to give an advantage to the other ancient nations?"
Lin Yuan clearly understood the Vexu Celestial Venerable's thoughts.
With the current dominance of the Great Fuxu Ancient Nation over the refined core pillars, the giant core pillar wasn't indispensable.
Even if the Liye Ancient Nation gained this giant core pillar, it still wouldn't surpass the Great Fuxu Ancient Nation in terms of the number of refined core pillars.
"Vexu Celestial Venerable believes the Great Fuxu Ancient Nation still holds an absolute advantage, so there's no need to engage in a bloodbath with me."
"Just me and Vexu Celestial Venerable..."
Lin Yuan fell into a brief contemplation. Vexu Celestial Venerable's attack had been completely blocked by the Primal Yin-Yang Taiji diagram.
However, this didn't mean Lin Yuan was definitely stronger. It only showed that Vexu Celestial Venerable couldn't defeat Lin Yuan under normal circumstances.
"Vexu Celestial Venerable has likely mastered two thirteenth-rank legacies, and his power is terrifying."
Lin Yuan thought to himself, "I cultivate the Infinite Void and the divine ability 'Blazing Sun Opening Heaven,' their fusion is akin to mastering two thirteenth-rank legacies."
"And the Primal Yin-Yang Tai ji path I have cultivated is also a thirteenth-rank technique, even more powerful than ordinary thirteenth-rank techniques. After all, this is my great path, perfectly suited to me."
Lin Yuan analyzed.
Cultivating two thirteenth-rank legacies was extremely rare, with the cultivation threshold being exceedingly high.
The cultivation of the Infinite Void seemed smooth, but it was Lin Yuan's comprehension that defied the heavens. For other cultivators, even the tests in the Jade Gourd state would be difficult to endure.
Even if they managed to endure, most would struggle at the threshold.
In the treasure vault of the Liye Ancient nation, there was a thirteenth-rank legacy called 'Blazing Sun Heart.'
To master this legacy, one must maintain a Blazing Sun mentality at all times. Under this state, the cultivator's reason would be almost entirely replaced by the Blazing Sun, leaving them with little rationality and prone to impulsive actions.
Of course, once the 'Blazing Sun Heart' was cultivated, the heart would transform into a thirteenth-rank temporal heart. Even with just a fraction of its full power, it would be enough to sweep away all Celestial Venerables.
In terms of combat enhancement, this thirteenth-rank transformation far surpassed other thirteenth-rank legacies.
But Lin Yuan kept his distance.
Such a thirteenth-rank legacy, even if Lin Yuan met all the requirements, he would not attempt to cultivate it. Losing most of his rationality would be too great a risk.
"the gap between me and Vexu Celestial Venerable is primarily in the life realm. I am ultimately a Sovereign Realm life."
Lin Yuan thought, but he wasn't overly concerned.
At his current realm, as soon as he entered the Primal stage, hehe"my greatest advantage isn't the Inner universe, not the Infinite Void, nor the Blazing Sun Opening Heaven. It's the path I have cultivated."
Lin Yuan's gaze grew intensely warm.
Just the first level of the Primal Yin-Yang tai ji path had boosted his strength to this extent. If he cultivated it to the second or third level, the enhancement would be even greater.
Compared to the potential of the Primal Yin-Yang tai ji path, only cultivating the Infinite Void to its seventh level could match it.
But cultivating the Infinite Void to its seventh level was merely theoretical, even the creator couldn't be certain. Lin Yuan considered himself far from a true temporal life.
In comparison, the third level of the Primal Yin-Yang tai ji path seemed more reliable.
Just as Lin yuan was assessing his own strength, the peak emperors of the treasure land were in an uproar. Compared to the core pillars in their half-illusory state, the immense core pillar radiated an overwhelming aura that could not be contained. Even the emperors, with just a slight touch, could sense the vast and imposing aura of the immense core pillar.
Previously, the immense core pillar was occupied by the great ancient nation and refined by the illusory emperors. How could it change hands now? But now, the aura of the immense core pillar had subtly shifted, causing all the peak emperors to realize one thing: the immense core pillar had a new master.
"That immense core pillar, wasn't it refined by the illusory emperors? How did it change hands?"
"Who is it? Among the six ancient nations, only the great ancient nation hadn't sent a peak emperor. Could it be that the illusory emperors had hidden a strong one?"
"Could the illusory emperors be forced to yield the immense core pillar? How is that possible?"
The peak emperors were stunned. The battle vibrations from the immense core pillar had already left them bewildered. Now, even the immense core pillar had changed hands.
Given the immense core pillar's importance, the illusory emperors couldn't have left without a reason. If they had come, they must have done so willingly.
"It was the Galaxy Empress. She has refined the immense core pillar."
"The Galaxy Empress? I thought she had just ascended to the empress realm?"
"The Galaxy Empress wrested the immense core pillar from the illusory emperors?"
The peak emperors were taken aback. They had anticipated that the other ancient nations might have hidden a strong one, but they hadn't expected it to be the Galaxy Empress.
The uniqueness of the Galaxy Empress was unparalleled among the six ancient nations. She was the first to elevate the progenitor's bloodline to the empress realm, a member of the imperial lineage.
But the time was too short. Elevating the bloodline's power had been easier, but it wasn't a direct leap.
"Is this the empress-level progenitor's bloodline?" Many of the peak emperors pondered, planning to study the progenitor's bloodline more thoroughly after the treasure land's conflict.
Previously, the true peak emperors had looked down upon the progenitor's bloodline, finding the restrictions too great. But now, the peak emperors no longer held any prejudice against the progenitor's bloodline.
This was the first city of the source world, the birthplace of the first progenitor, holding great significance for the great ancient nation and the other five nations, being the cradle place of everything.
Even among the five progenitors, three were not born in the great ancient nation, but their ascension to the progenitor status was closely tied to the great progenitor.
After all, the initial cultivation path and system of the world had originated from the great progenitor.
In the deepest part of the capital, several figures gathered.
The scene flashed before them, a memory from the illusory emperors, but it was as vivid as if they were there in person.
"Hmm, the Galaxy Empress, her means are indeed remarkable. The chaotic force path she has cultivated is extraordinary."
"Indeed, I can see that she has cultivated a thirteenth-level legacy, but to withstand the full force of the illusory emperors, it was mainly due to the chaotic force path she has evolved."
"Such a powerful chaotic force path is rare indeed."
One by one, the figures spoke, offering their appraisal of the Galaxy Empress.
"A thirteenth-level legacy, the progenitor's bloodline at the empress level, and an extraordinary chaotic force path. The Galaxy Empress has considerable potential for further growth."
"Indeed, if she were to master another thirteenth-level legacy, we would not be a match for her without uniting. The figures exchanged views, their regard for the Galaxy Empress evident in their words.
"Her chaotic force path has not yet reached the third level, it lacks that sense of completeness," a figure who had not spoken before suddenly interjected.
"Her chaotic force path has not yet reached the third level?" The others looked at him, their expressions slightly surprised.
The chaotic force path wasdivided into three levels, the gap between each level immense. The leap from ordinary empress to peak empress, and even from peak empress to the pinnacle of peak empress, was vast.
"Vex, you have fought her. Is that correct?" a figure asked, turning to the illusory empress.
"Indeed," Vex replied, his tone thoughtful. "Her chaotic force path, though not yet complete, is formidable. The battle with her will be a valuable lesson for all of us."
"Indeed."
Vuxu Tianzun fell silent for a moment before nodding.
The third layer of the Chaos Evolution Path is the Perfect Realm. Reaching this stage, one would feel the absolute limit, a point where further advancement is impossible.
In this aspect, Vuxu Tianzun had not sensed any such limit from the Galaxy Tianzun's manifestation of the Chaos Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram.
"Could it be that in this era, a powerhouse surpassing the strongest Tianzun will be born in the Six Ancient Kingdoms?"
One figure couldn't help but to say.
Since the opening of the Six Ancient Kingdoms, the strongest Tianzun has always been the peak of the Tianzun level. However, with the current display of power by the Galaxy Tianzun, there is a high possibility of breaking this ceiling.
"Hehe, don't say that. The more powerful the Chaos Evolution Path, the harder it is to reach the Perfect Realm."
Another figure opened his mouth, not too worried, "Moreover, even if the Galaxy Tianzun really reaches that step, what effect would it have on us?"
"Unless one reaches the Ancestor level, can they threaten our Great Fuxu Ancient Kingdom? At the Ancestor level, that’s an issue for the Ancestors to ponder, not something that concerns us."
After these words, the other figures pondered for a moment and immediately nodded in agreement.
"At the Ancestor level, we don’t know if any of us still have hope to cross over."
Several figures spread their thoughts. For Tianzuns, the most coveted goal was to break the time loop and enter the Thirteenth Rank Ancestor Realm.
Yet, this was extremely difficult. Since the founding of the Great Fuxu Ancient Kingdom, in the endless ages, only five Ancestors have been born.
The figures present were the strongest Tianzuns of the Great Fuxu Ancient Kingdom, having experienced the power of the An ancestor more than once. The more they experienced, the greater the gap between the Ancestors and themselves.
This gap wasn't a difference in power levels, but a gap on a higher level.
"Even if the Galaxy Tianzun’s strength is stronger, whether they can eventually become an Ancestor is still uncertain, the probability isn’t much higher than ours," a figure said.
"Vuxu, time, do you have any confidence in this treasure land competition?"
After a brief chat, the figures looked towards Vuxu Tianzun.
Originally, the Great Fuxu Ancient Kingdom dispatched Vuxu Tianzun, the strongest Tianzun, to compete for that treasure land, already holding the victory in hand. But unexpectedly, appeared the Galaxy Tianzun.
"Conventional means can’t do anything to the Galaxy Tianzun. But if it comes to a life-or-death struggle, the current Galaxy Tianzun isn’t necessarily my opponent."
Vuxu Tianzun said.
Perhaps in the future, the Galaxy Tianzun’s strength might surpass his, but right now?
The reason Vuxu Tianzun willingly gave up the competition for the giant core celestial pillar was to prevent other ancient kingdoms from reaping the benefits. Moreover, nearly a thousand years remained until the competition for the treasure land, and currently, the Great Fuxu Ancient Kingdom still held the advantage.
It wasn’t out of fear of the Galaxy Tianzun.
"That’s good."
"Pity, if I had known the Galaxy Tianzun, a powerhouse like this, would appear in this competition, I would have also participated."
The figures chatted among themselves. At their level, engaging with peers of the same tier was also a form of enjoyment.
Inside the treasure land.
Outside the giant core celestial pillar.
Eleven peak Tianzuns from the Constant Sun Ancient Kingdom arrived here.
"Galaxy Tianzun? Has the Galaxy Tianzun really reclaimed this giant core celestial pillar?" Even now, Guanglie Tianzun still found it hard to believe.
As a peak Tianzun, he was too aware of Vuxu Tianzun’s strength. Even he would need to rely on the ancient kingdom’s heritage killing weapon to barely match the opponent.
If Vuxu Tianzun also used the heritage killing weapon, it would require the joint effort of other ancient kingdoms to counter.
This was also a scene that would inevitably appear in the later stages of the treasure land competition, with the strength of the Great Fuxu Ancient Kingdom, it would definitely attract the alliance of other ancient kingdoms.
"The Galaxy Tianzun’s strength is too formidable."
Hengyang Tianzun sighed, at the beginning of the competition, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the Constant Sun Ancient Kingdom’s emperor forcing him into this competition.
"Alright."
At this moment, Chiyang Tianzun finally spoke up, "Let the Galaxy in."
"Uh-huh."
The other peak Tianzuns nodded.
At this moment, the leading Tianzun of the Constant Sun Ancient Kingdom had quietly changed from Chiyang Tianzun to Galaxy Tianzun.
There was no way around it.
Among the six ancient kingdoms, Tianzun, this was a hard and fast rule. The Galaxy Tianzun’s strength as the strongest Tianzun was already acknowledged.
Moreover, the Galaxy Tianzun seizing the giant core celestial pillar held significant meaning for this competition.
Alleviating the pressure on the Constant Sun Ancient Kingdom to occupy more core celestial pillars.
Strength comes, and so does the credit.
If not the leading Tianzun, who would be the leading Tianzun?
