Chapter 697: Eternal Messenger
Chapter 697: Eternal Messenger
The Fruit of the Law Source Tree believed that the 'inferior' status was not due to size, volume, or inherent power.
If these were the criteria, the Chaotic Void would be the most uncontested and vast existence in the surrounding dimensional gaps.
Dimensional spaces have their own hierarchies, and the Chaotic Void is undoubtedly the pinnacle of dimensional spaces.
Lin Yuan's internal universe, in this aspect, was far from reaching the level of the Chaotic Void.
However, if we set aside these factors and focus solely on the perfection of the spatial worlds, the Law Source Tree actually found the Chaotic Void inferior to Lin Yuan's internal universe.
In terms of the refinement of the fundamental rules and great Laws, this internal universe was more complete.
"How is this possible?"
The Law Source Tree found this hard to believe.
The Chaotic Void, by its very nature, was a vast and incomprehensible entity, further refined by the time beings that emerged from it.
It had reached a Certain Peak, how could it be surpassed?
"Who is this Great Being? What is His Origin?"
The Law Source Tree's mind trembled. The notion that a being could surpass its parent dimension was almost unheard of.
A world space born from the Chaotic Void had its foundations set, making it nearly impossible to surpass the Chaotic Void.
Yet, Lin Yuan's internal universe broke this notion, leaving a profound impact on the Law Source Tree.
For example, was Lin Yuan's origin terrifying? Could he be a time being from another dimensional space, infiltrating the Chaotic Void with some grand scheme?
A time being that could seamlessly integrate into the Chaotic Void and other dimensional spaces was at least of the Overlord level and required immense sacrifices.
"Time Overlord?"
The Law Source Tree's heart quivered.
Even in the mysterious dimensional gaps, the involvement of a Time Overlord was extremely rare. The Law Source Tree had only ever witnessed the conflicts of time beings from a distance.
But a Time Overlord?
The Law Source Tree had never Seen One.
At the Time Overlord level, the schemes involved manipulating one's own timeline, sealing it off to ensure uniqueness in the past, present, and future, attempting to Ascend to the Perfect Realm.
Such entities possessed the power to slightly alter the past within a limited scope.
However, below the Fourteenth Tier, even a Time Overlord would need to pay a heavy price to change the past.
In reality, at the Thirteenth Tier, the struggles between time beings were no Longer confined to the spatial realm but gradually shifted to the temporal plane.
Battles in the past, layouts in the future.
This was the nature of time beings.
Some time beings sacrificed the present for the sake of a successful future.
The victory between time beings was not confined to the present but stretched across the long timeline, viewed from the distant future.
"No wonder, no wonder."
The Law Source Tree suddenly realized.
If Lin Yuan was a Great Time Overlord, then everything made sense. Possessing such terrifying power, it was reasonable for a Time Overlord to have such capabilities.
"But what could a Great Time Overlord possibly scheme, willing to pay such a heavy price to infiltrate this dimensional space?"
The Law Source Tree couldn't help but wonder.
At the height of a Time Overlord, what could motivate such infiltration?
"Never mind."
"These are not for me to ponder."
The Law Source Tree shook his head. The distant future as seen by a Time Overlord must have deep significance, and as a mere time being, he couldn't comprehend the schemes of a Time Overlord.
"This might be a great opportunity for me."
The Law Source Tree suddenly thought. Being captured by a Time Overlord wasn't necessarily a bad thing, at least he could be considered the 'tree' of a Time Overlord?

The second Source World: the Azure Cloud Sacred Mountain.
Lin Yuan's true form had long returned from the trial space opened by the Master of Wu Mountain.
However, he left an avatar there to continuously comprehend the inheritance left by the Master of Heavenly Light.
"Rune Path."
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his mind focused on comprehending the Master of Heavenly Light's understanding of runes.
"Using the power of the mind, blood, and soul to condense runes is the simplest application and the most basic understanding."
The Master of Heavenly Light's gentle light illuminated everything, and Lin Yuan earnestly comprehended.
The original inheritance left by the Master of Wu Mountain contained the imprint of the Master of Heavenly Light. Through this imprint, it was as if he was directly 'facing' the Master of Heavenly Light, greatly benefiting his understanding of the inheritance.
This was why the original inheritance was so precious.
Even the most valuable replicated inheritances would slightly deviate from the founder's original intent.
"The inheritance I created is divided into five levels. At the first level, the carriers of runes are no longer one's own power but the elements of the universe, mountains, and stones can form runes."
"At the second level, all tangible forms, including living beings, can become carriers of runes, condensing them."
"At the third level, intangible emotions and desires can also condense runes. At this level, even if one is trapped in a time loop, unable to directly use the Rune Path, one can still indirectly apply it."
The Master of Heavenly Light spoke, his tone gentle, like a devoted teacher.
"The elements of the universe are runes, tangible forms are runes, and intangible emotions are runes?"
Lin Yuan's mind surged with numerous inspirations.
His understanding of runes rapidly deepened.
【Your comprehension defies the heavens. Through the study of the rune lineage, your understanding of the rune path has greatly improved.】
With Lin Yuan’s heaven-defying comprehension, it took him only a little over half a month to fully grasp the third level.
"Seven emotions and six desires?"
With a slight thought, Lin Yuan separated his own anger, forming a tiny rune.
" No wonder the Lord of Heavenly Light was confident that mastering the third level would help break the time loop."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly. Although he didn’t know what kind of time loop he was in, as long as there was life, there would be seven emotions and six desires, which could serve as the carrier for runes.
Qi and blood power, soul power, mental power, and the power of the world and universe might all be sealed and unusable, but seven emotions and six desires? Without them, could it still be called life?
Surely, the time loop he was in couldn’t be devoid of any life? Even if there were no other lives, he himself was a life form capable of generating seven emotions and six desires, which could serve as the carrier for runes.
Of course, even if he found a rune carrier within the time loop, the power it would ultimately unleash would be greatly reduced. But at least it wouldn’t be completely helpless.
"Fourth level."
Lin Yuan looked at the fourth level of the lineage.
He was able to grasp the first three levels in a short time thanks to his heaven-defying comprehension and the Eternal Painting by the Lord of Wu Mountain.
The latter gave him a general understanding of the rune path of this primordial world, and then, with the help of his heaven-defying comprehension, he was able to rapidly advance by studying the legacy left by the Lord of Heavenly Light.
" What are runes? They are everything, everything seen and felt, can become a carrier for runes." The Lord of Heavenly Light smiled and explained in detail to Lin Yuan.
"Everything seen and felt?"
Lin Yuan nodded, the scope of this was vast, especially within the time loop. Perhaps the time loop he was in had scarce life, with only him. In such a case, even if he could generate seven emotions and six desires, they would be quite limited.
But everything seen and felt?
As long as it was seen or felt, it could become a carrier for runes.
"Lord of Heavenly Light."
Lin Yuan once again felt the terrifying power of this Eternal Lord. The Lord of Wu Mountain’s pursuit was to paint a primordial world.
But the Lord of Heavenly Light’s pursuit was everything.
"Even such a powerful time being can be trapped? Or is it willing to be trapped?"
Lin Yuan’s mind was heavy. According to the Lord of Wu Mountain’s explanation of the trial space ‘Spirit,’ all the Eternal Lords, including the Lord of Wu Mountain, were trapped.
Only by being trapped did they have a faint chance in the future.
If they weren’t trapped, perhaps the Eternal Lords could survive, but this primordial world would be destined for destruction, with no hope of salvation.
It was precisely because of this that the Eternal Lords, including the Lord of Wu Mountain, chose to be trapped, with all their powers sealed, unable to interfere or influence the world after the ‘Demon’ calamity.
"Continue studying."
Lin Yuan focused his thoughts and began to study the fourth level of the lineage.
Compared to the first three levels, Lin Yuan’s study of the fourth level was slower.
However, with Lin Yuan’s comprehension, it was only a matter of time.
In fact, many powerful practitioners had studied this lineage, but most only reached the first or second level.
As for the third level? Since the lineage was spread, only a few had grasped the third level.
No one had grasped the fourth level.
Not everyone had Lin Yuan’s accumulation and comprehension.
To the eyes of the Third Realm Transcenders, this lineage was like a celestial book. Even if they knew it would greatly benefit their path to becoming an Eternal Lord, they still had to be able to comprehend it.
Even among the Eternal Lords, a large portion had not grasped the fourth level.
In the highest hall of the Azure Cloud Holy Peak.
The Grand Master of the Holy Sect and the elders were recently very content.
Due to Lin Yuan’s presence, the ‘demons’ around the Azure Cloud Holy Mountain were nearly extinct.
Initially, the Grand Master and the elders had many speculations, but once they confirmed it was Lin Yuan’s doing, they immediately relaxed.
With Lin Yuan around, the Azure Cloud Holy Sect was as stable as Mount Tai, with no need to worry about being breached by the great demons.
How could the Grand Master and the elders not be delighted?
The demon calamity was widespread, and even the Holy Sects and Supreme Holy Sects, if they survived, faced overwhelming pressure every moment.
The Eternal Sect at the center of the world was no exception.
The Eternal Sect had unfathomable depth and had pre-emptively set up measures by the Eternal Lords, but the pressure it faced was even greater.
A Primordial Demon, or even a Demon God?
"Hmm?"
At this moment, the Grand Master’s expression changed slightly. On the high platform of the distant hall, a green rune slowly lit up.
" This rune can sense messages from the Eternal Sect at the center of the world. Is an Eternal Messenger about to arrive?" The Grand Master’s mind was shaken.
It had been so long since the last Eternal Messenger arrived that the Grand Master thought there might be some major issue with the Eternal Sect at the center of the world.
In the depths of the Azure Cloud Academy.
As soon as the Grand Master learned that an Eternal Messenger was about to arrive, he immediately informed Lin Yuan.
"An Eternal Messenger? A powerful practitioner from the Eternal Sect is coming?" Lin Yuan looked at the Grand Master of the Holy Sect.
