Chapter 761: Breakthrough, Second Stage
Chapter 761: Breakthrough, Second Stage
The Second Origin World.
Ever since Lin Yuan ended the Demon Catastrophe, this Origin World once again flourished.
With the threat of demonic energy and beings gone, cultivators could focus their efforts on cultivation, leading to a rapid surge in the strength of Freedom Triad experts within a short period.
Those who could withstand the pressure of the Demon Catastrophe had accumulated profound foundations.
As long as they found suitable environments, their cultivation would likely advance by leaps and bounds.
It was like a person who had been carrying a heavy burden for a long time, suddenly breaking free of their restraints.
The results were self-evident.
Living in an environment permeated with demonic energy for an extended period had obscured and suppressed their insights into rules and the Great Dao.
If they could break through this suppression, they would likely soar to new heights.
"All living beings," Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his gaze encompassing the entire Origin World. The future timelines of every sentient being rapidly unfolded before him.
Countless timelines intertwined and collided, forming the future of this Origin World.
"Non-temporal lives are too fragile in the eyes of Perfect Time Life," Lin Yuan thought.
This fragility wasn't about strength but a deeper, more profound kind of weakness.
It was like the characters in a picture book, no matter how dramatic their stories were within the book.
To those outside the book, it was just a glance, perhaps interesting the first time, but not something that would evoke emotional responses after multiple readings.
Even the brilliant and extraordinary life of a Rank Twelve Perfection being would seem rather dull in the eyes of Time Life.
"Perhaps, in the eyes of Perfect Time Life, Time Life is also extremely thin and boring?" Lin Yuan wondered to himself.
Although he didn't know if Perfect Time Life truly existed, with their capabilities, the so-called Time Life and Non-Temporal Life didn't seem significantly different.
In a sense, the fate of Time Life was determined by Perfect Time Life.
"Only by becoming a Time Lord can one have a slight chance to resist Perfect Time Life," Lin Yuan thought.
At least a Time Lord had the qualifications to challenge Perfect Time Life, whether they succeeded or not was another matter.
"Strength, strength is the foundation of everything. With enough strength, what can Perfect Time Life do?" Lin Yuan's heart yearned for power.
The higher the cultivation realm, the stronger the cultivator, and the more intense the desire for strength became.
Only with overwhelming strength could one achieve 'Great Freedom' and not be at the mercy of fate.
Ordinary mortals might be content with living a stable and peaceful life.
But Time Life? How could they tolerate the idea that their fate was predetermined?
"Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao," Lin Yuan's thoughts stirred, and the forces of black and white, yin and yang, intertwined.
A vast and majestic Dao began to take shape.
"Once I comprehend the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao, my strength will soar," Lin Yuan gazed at the nascent Origin Dao.
Not only would he gain a new Chaos Origin Dao, but he could also use this Origin Dao to step into the Second Stage.
This was far more beneficial than comprehending the Chaos Origin Annihilation Dao or the Chaos Origin World Dao alone; it provided a greater boost to Lin Yuan's cultivation.
Although comprehending the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao didn't allow Lin Yuan to rival Perfect Time Life, it at least brought him closer.
Unlike other Time Life, whose strength stagnated over countless years, Lin Yuan's power was constantly improving.
He had rarely encountered any significant bottlenecks.
The forces of black and white, yin and yang, continued to intertwine, and the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao was on the verge of formation.
This naturally began to influence the myriad laws and principles of the entire Origin World.
Comprehending the existing Chaos Origin Daos wouldn't cause any disturbance.
For example, the Chaos Origin Annihilation Dao, which already existed in the Endless Dimensional Realm.
But the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao?
Before Lin Yuan comprehended it, this Origin Dao hadn't appeared in the Endless Dimensional Realm, and its birth naturally resonated with countless other Origin Daos.
However, because Lin Yuan was within the Origin World, this resonance was limited to the Origin World and didn't affect the Dimensional Gap.
"Is this the Milky Way?"
The Eternal Lords, including the Boundless Sovereign, were the first to notice the changes in the myriad laws and principles of the Origin World.
Their gazes simultaneously turned towards the source of these changes, where Lin Yuan was located.
"It's an Origin Dao. Has the Milky Way comprehended its own Chaos Origin Dao?"
The Dark Void Sovereign was stunned. Comprehending one's own Chaos Origin Dao meant that one was about to step into the Second Stage of the Thirteenth Rank.
But how long had it been since Lin Yuan became a Time Life? Other newly ascended Time Life couldn't even stabilize their realms, and Lin Yuan was about to enter the Second Stage?
The Dark Void Sovereign had initially observed Lin Yuan's future timeline, and he had prepared for the Milky Way's advancement to the Second Stage and even becoming a Time Lord.
However, it was happening faster than any future timeline he had witnessed.
"Impressive, truly worthy of a destined Time Being," exclaimed the Wu Mountain Sovereign, astonished.
With the foundation of a destined Time Being, the Wu Mountain Sovereign wasn't too surprised by Lin Yuan's rapid comprehension of his Origin Path.
It was both unexpected and expected.
Meanwhile, the other Eternal Lords were carefully sensing the fluctuations of the Origin Path.
For a First Stage Time Being, sensing the fluctuations of an entirely new Origin Path was also an opportunity.
"This kind of fluctuation..."
The Boundless Sovereign's eyes widened in surprise. Although he was also at the First Stage and had never experienced comprehending an Origin Path, he still keenly felt that—
The disturbance was too great.
The myriad laws and paths of the entire Source World were affected by it.
Even if a Second Stage Time Being exerted their full strength, they couldn't shake the Source World, let alone one who had just comprehended their Chaos Origin Path? After all, the Witch Mountain Sovereign's pursuit was to paint a 'Source World'.
If he achieved that, it would be the moment he became a Time Lord.
It was evident that a power capable of shaking the entire Source World undoubtedly belonged to a Third Stage Time Lord.
"Boundless, what have you discovered?"
The Dark Void Sovereign, noticing the Boundless Sovereign's unusual expression, immediately asked.
The other Eternal Lords also turned their attention to him.
"Nothing."
The Boundless Sovereign didn't directly reveal his thoughts, as he himself was uncertain.
Instead, he spoke with a hint of meaning: "I just saw the Milky Way comprehend his Origin Path, and it felt like when he was cultivating under the Teacher's guidance."
The 'Teacher' the Boundless Sovereign referred to was naturally the Light Master.
A Time Lord.
"With the Milky Way's cultivation speed, reaching the level of the 'Teacher' in the future shouldn't be an issue."
The Dark Void Sovereign immediately affirmed the Boundless Sovereign's opinion.
For other Time Beings, the Third Stage Lordhood was as difficult as ascending to the heavens, but in Lin Yuan's eyes, it was merely a matter of time.
"Hmm?"
The Boundless Sovereign glanced at the Dark Void Sovereign without saying more.
Still in the future? The implied meaning of his previous statement was that the current 'Milky Way' already gave him a feeling similar to that of the Light Master.
Was there a need to wait for the future?
However, this speculation was too incredible to believe.
Had he just comprehended his Origin Path and already rivaled a Third Stage Lord?
The First Origin World.
The six Ancestors also immediately sensed the fluctuations of the Origin Path.
"He's a monster, and it's only been this long," the Great Overcome Ancestor was shocked, and he also felt a sense of relief, for if he hadn't immediately bowed down to Lin Yuan at the time.
This scene from the future timeline would have likely already occurred.
No, it would probably be even more brutal than what he had observed in the timeline.
The hostility of a Second Stage Time Being from the same dimensional space was unbearable for any First Stage Time Being.
This was different from a Second Stage Time Being from a dimensional gap.
When facing a Second Stage Time Being from a dimensional gap, the Great Overcome Ancestor might feel wary, but as long as he hid within the Source World, the other party couldn't harm him.
With the protection of the Source World's consciousness, even a Time Lord would have to pay a price to injure him, let alone a Second Stage Time Being? However, a Second Stage Time Being from the same dimensional space could completely ignore the Source World's protection and directly attack the Great Overcome Ancestor.
At that time, the Great Overcome Ancestor's various life-saving methods would be useless, and might even become his weakness.
"Blazing Sun, your luck..." The Great Spirit Ancestor glanced at the Blazing Sun Ancestor.
Although the Ancestors were independent, Lin Yuan was, after all, from the Blazing Sun Ancient Country.
Now that Lin Yuan had become a Second Stage Time Being, his status was undoubtedly the highest.
As for the Ancestors below Lin Yuan, the Blazing Sun Ancestor would be next in line, for their relationship was clear.
In terms of strength, the Great Overcome Ancestor was the strongest, followed by the Great Spirit Ancestor, while the Blazing Sun Ancestor was not particularly remarkable among the original six Ancestors.
But now, by virtue of his connection with the Milky Way, he had managed to surpass them all.
"Hahahaha!" The Blazing Sun Ancestor's face broke into a smile.
Although the Blazing Sun Ancestor wasn't as skilled in nurturing his descendants as the Great Overcome Ancestor, it just so happened that Lin Yuan was from the Blazing Sun Ancient Country.
"We originate from the same dimensional realm, and when the Great Annihilation comes, we will need to join forces against other Time Beings." The Blazing Sun Ancestor immediately spoke.
For Time Beings like them, the true challenge lies in entering the Dimensional Gap after the Great Annihilation.
"Indeed."
The Thunder Sovereign nodded, acknowledging that their relationship with the Milky Way was not as close as that of the Blazing Sun Ancestor.
However, they all came from the same dimensional realm and belonged to the same camp, so in the future, they would need to present a united front against external threats.
Chaos Void.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, and before him, a vast and majestic Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao had fully formed.
"Is this my Origin Path?" Lin Yuan examined it carefully, and as the Path circulated, the power of the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao seemed far superior to that of the Chaos Origin Annihilation Dao.
"Normally, Second Rank Temporal Beings only comprehend their own Chaos Origin Path before understanding other Chaos Origin Paths. But in my case, I comprehended other Chaos Origin Paths first and only later grasped the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao."
Lin Yuan's heart and mind were filled with joy. Ultimately, this was because the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao was far more challenging to comprehend.
This was evident from the beginning when Lin Yuan comprehended the Chaos Tai Chi Path. Other Chaos Realm Perfection cultivators only needed to reach the threshold of Chaos Rule to understand their own Chaos Evolutionary Path.
However, Lin Yuan had almost reached Chaos Rule Perfection before comprehending the Chaos Tai Chi Path.
"I can feel that after comprehending the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao and advancing to the Second Rank, my strength is no different from that of a Time Lord."
Lin Yuan examined himself and found that in terms of combat power, he was no weaker than an ordinary Third Rank Time Lord. As for his control over timelines and his ability to conceal his own timeline, with the support of Lordhood, he was on par with a Time Lord.
One of the most powerful abilities of a Time Lord was to travel back in time and kill their enemies when they were weak. But after Lin Yuan condensed his 'Past Body', his past and present were one, and if a Time Lord dared to travel back in time to attempt to kill him, they would undoubtedly face a devastating price.
For a Time Lord, traveling to the past would result in rejection and constant backlash, and taking action in the past would require a heavy cost.
However, Lin Yuan's Past Body was already from the past, so there was no rejection, and when facing a Time Lord from the future, it was a fair fight.
"Now, if I claim to be a Time Lord, no one will doubt me, not even a true Third Rank Lord."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
In fact, even if someone could see through his disguise, what could they do? In the Dimensional Gap, strength was paramount, and Lin Yuan's power in all aspects was on par with a Time Lord. So, if he claimed to be a Time Lord, who would dare to question him?
Moreover, Lin Yuan's abilities were far more terrifying than those of a Time Lord. With the Boundary-Breaking Essence in his hands, he could even completely annihilate a genuine Time Lord.
Breaking the myth that a Time Lord could only die if they wished to.
Of course, this required a massive amount of Boundary-Breaking Essence, and unless it was absolutely necessary, Lin Yuan would never take such action.
The Third Origin World, the Vast Chaos Source World, the end of the Immortal Path.
As Lin Yuan comprehended the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Path, the Spacetime Path at the end of the Immortal Path began to tremble, with Lin Yuan at its center.
Initially, the Mortal Immortals showed little surprise.
It wasn't uncommon for Mortal Immortals to comprehend their own Origin Paths and become Immortal Kings on the Immortal Path. In fact, most of the current Immortal Kings had achieved this.
But as the tremors intensified and began to affect the various Immortal Paths, all the Mortal Immortals and Immortal Kings were left dumbfounded.
Was this all because of comprehending their own Chaos Origin Path?
"It's the Tianyuan Emperor."
"The Tianyuan Emperor has comprehended his own Chaos Origin Path."
"Wait, I don't quite understand. Wasn't the Tianyuan Emperor just an Immortal King before?"
The Mortal Immortals and Immortal Kings found it hard to believe that the Tianyuan Emperor, who had recently displayed power beyond the Immortal King pinnacle, was just like them—a Mortal Immortal, not even an Immortal King?
The Cycle Immortal King, Bai Bin Immortal King, and Witch Immortal King were equally astonished.
However, upon careful reflection, they realized that Lin Yuan had never claimed to be an Immortal King; it was their own assumption.
Near the Illusory World.
The three Immortal Emperors, who had hoped to accompany Lin Yuan one day, were about to continue their contemplation of the Illusory World when they sensed the birth of the Chaos Origin Tai Chi Dao.
The three Immortal Emperors observed for a while, their expressions becoming increasingly solemn.
"This..."
