Chapter 1305 - 46: The Other Side of Light
Chapter 1305: Chapter 46: The Other Side of Light
“What did the fourteen Eternal Lords say to you before they vanished?”
Lin Yuan asked the sect masters casually.
Based on the information Lin Yuan currently possessed, this Fang Yuan World, including the Lord of Heaven Light, had fourteen Eternal Lords.
Which meant fourteen beings of time.
In comparison to the six progenitors of the first source world.
The second source world was obviously much stronger.
This was due to the first source world’s age being far less than that of the second source world.
As time flowed in the first source world, more beings of time would come into existence.
“Nothing, they only left behind various strategies to handle future situations.”
Sect Master of the Eternal Infinite Sect said.
The other sect masters nodded in agreement.
In fact, they had only had brief final interactions with six Eternal Lords, who were the founders of the six Eternal Sects.
As for the other Eternal Lords? They were solitary figures, beyond their reach.
“Hmm.”
Lin Yuan didn’t probe further.
Clearly, these sect masters knew less than the golden figure in the trial space.
It made sense, given the demon plague’s constraints, anything short of Eternal Lord-level knowledge was not very meaningful.
“Next, I will leave an avatar here. If the Demon God appears again, I will intervene.”
Lin Yuan declared.
Having promised protection for the hidden world, it was naturally fitting to act thoroughly.
Of course.
Lin Yuan speculated that the Demon God would not reappear.
After realizing he couldn’t prevail against Lin Yuan, the Demon God’s full focus instinctively shifted to suppressing the source world’s consciousness.
Regarding the inside of the source world?
If he could fully suppress the source world’s consciousness, the Demon God would replace it.
At that time, his power would greatly increase.
However.
This day was estimated to be far off.
If he could quickly suppress the source world’s consciousness.
The Demon God wouldn’t be in such haste to attack the hidden world.
“Thank you, Lord Galaxy.” The sect masters expressed their gratitude.
Lin Yuan’s assurance removed their worries.
…
Lin Yuan’s true form left the hidden world.
Walking casually in various parts of heaven and earth.
Innumerable demonic qi retreated quickly within ten thousand miles of Lin Yuan’s presence.
“Still watching me?”
Lin Yuan vaguely sensed the Demon God’s gaze on him.
“The Demon God…”
Lin Yuan’s expression was contemplative.
Though he fought the Demon God head-on, even forcing the Demon God to retreat.
Lin Yuan did not feel any satisfaction.
Fighting the Demon God did not mean Lin Yuan could combat other time beings.
Time beings observe multiple future timelines and wouldn’t give Lin Yuan a chance for direct confrontation.
As for the Demon God?
His power and lethality were akin to true time beings.
But possessing power alone, unable to observe timelines, any time being could plot against him successfully.
The most terrifying aspect of a time being was foreknowledge, and the ability to actively choose their desired future.
“Just…”
Lin Yuan’s expression was solemn.
In close combat with the Demon God, he was acutely aware of the Demon God’s fearsome nature.
Primarily the terrifying aspect of the Demon God’s physical form.
Throughout the encounter, the Demon God didn’t display any secret techniques or divine skills, relying solely on physical instincts to fight Lin Yuan.
Even so, he possessed the frontal combat strength of a thirteenth-order time being.
Imagine.
If the Demon God could unleash and operate secret techniques, amplifying his power by hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of times.
Even if Lin Yuan fully developed the infinite Constant Sand Particle World, he would be far from a match for the Demon God.
“Not using secret techniques, not deploying Mind Will Secret Skills, solely relying on physical instincts, and yet possessing such strength?” Lin Yuan found it hard to believe.
The Martial Arts Evolution Road specializes in physical prowess, but it can’t compare to the Demon God’s physical form.
“If the Demon God is also a time being who, due to certain reasons, lost mind and will, causing him to act purely on physical instincts, how powerful was he at his peak?”
Lin Yuan’s thoughts expanded.
“Though it has nothing to do with me.”
“Now that the infinite Constant Sand Particle World is completely developed, proof that this secret technique works, the other two true forms can consider cultivating it.”
Lin Yuan mused to himself.
The reason for not letting the two true forms of Chaos Void and the first source world attempt to develop their particle worlds.
Was because this secret technique consumed too many resources, potentially halting development halfway or just before completion, discovering the path was not viable.
In that case, all prior investment would be wasted.
But now.
In this source world, Lin Yuan has already proven the feasibility of completely developing the particle world, so his other two true selves can naturally follow suit.
…
Chaos Void.
Lin Yuan’s true self drifted along with the Chaos Qi.
Just at this moment.
Lin Yuan opened his eyes.
“Develop the particle world.”
With a slight movement of thought, the particle worlds within his body started to be developed.
For thousands of years, Lin Yuan travelled across various parts of the Chaos Void, collecting an immense amount of resources.
Many secret realms that even Great Saints could not discover, and remnants of inheritance from Postnatal Universes opened by peerless Great Saints throughout history, all were entirely looted by Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan even made several trips to dimensional gaps to gather many precious resources outside the Chaos Void.
Preparing for the development of his own particle world.
The Chaos Void is not the second source world and has not yet been tainted by Demonic Qi. Numerous secret realms constantly emerge, allowing resource collection.
Over the years, combined with acquiring some from those special places, barely enough has been gathered.
…
The first source world.
Lin Yuan similarly began developing his own particle world.
Compared to the Chaos Void, where he needed to find resources himself, acquiring resources in this source world is much simpler for his true self.
Owning the top-tier treasure land ’Golden Mist Treasure Land’, Lin Yuan only needs to sell the rare treasures produced here to continuously harvest various resources.
The golden mist produced by the Golden Mist Treasure Land has the ability to transform the constitution of life towards a time-based nature, eventually granting a brief foresight into the future upon complete transformation.
Though it’s far inferior to the direct future vision of a Tier Thirteen time life form.
Yet for those Heavenly Venerates and Peak Venerables, this ability is undoubtedly highly coveted.
Through this attraction, the Heavenly Venerates and Peak Venerables of the six ancient realms exhausted themselves to exchange their savings for some golden mist from Lin Yuan.
To accelerate resource collection, Lin Yuan went further by ’pre-selling’ the golden mist produced by the treasure land for the next ten trillion years.
Pre-selling the treasure land’s rare items entails great risks for other Heavenly Venerates, but the reputation of Galaxy Venerate is naturally trustworthy.
It is precisely because of this reputation that Lin Yuan could directly ’pre-sell’ the golden mist produced over the next ten trillion years.
After all, Lin Yuan is on the verge of Tier Thirteen, not interested in this fragmentary foresight ability. Using it to exchange for resources to develop the particle world is very worthwhile.
With this method, Lin Yuan quickly and effortlessly gathered all the resources needed for the development of his particle world.
…
The second source world.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on a hill.
“The eighth Physical Body Divine Ability…” Lin Yuan carefully perceived the interplay of fundamental forces deep within his bloodline.
The incubation time of the eighth Physical Body Divine Ability exceeds the total incubation time of the previous seven, requiring over ten thousand years.
At this moment, the incubation of Lin Yuan’s eighth Physical Body Divine Ability is already nearing completion, ranging from a short hundred years to a long several thousand years before maturation.
“Incubating for ten thousand years, who knows what power this divine ability holds?”
In this source world, ever since the great change of the heavens and earth, the physical body potential of all life has become terrifyingly vast.
This is the primary reason Lin Yuan’s incubation of Physical Body Divine Ability takes over ten thousand years.
The foundational nature of life’s bloodline has transformed.
The Martial Arts Evolution Road’s ability to incubate Physical Body Divine Ability can lock onto this change, forming divine skills.
“Continue to comprehend.”
Lin Yuan withdrew his thoughts, no longer focusing on the fundamental forces deep within his bloodline.
Instead, he continued to comprehend the inheritance left behind by the Lord of Heaven Light, which aids in breaking the cycle of time.
Comprehending for ten thousand years, even with only a small part of his mind focused on it, Lin Yuan has cultivated this inheritance to the fifth layer.
He is only a hair’s breadth away from fully understanding the fifth layer.
…
Book of Inheritance Space.
Lin Yuan continued listening.
Under the dome of the sky, the Lord of Heaven Light stood tall, radiating boundless light, warm and comforting, making Lin Yuan feel like he was soaked in a hot spring.
“The fifth layer of this inheritance lies in the heart, in the thought, where the heart and thought reach becomes a rune, without external aid.”
The Lord of Heaven Light’s expression was calm, with a smile, looking at Lin Yuan with a smile while explaining the nuances of the fifth layer.
His eyes were gentle, filled with kindness, showing extraordinary compassion for all beings.
“What is the essence of life? The body? The soul? Neither, it is the mind. With the mind, one can be considered a complete being. Cultivating this inheritance to the fifth layer is to form runes based on the mind and thought.”
The Lord of Heaven Light smiled and said, “The so-called cycle of time tests life, tests the transformation of life towards time life, and since it tests life, it inevitably contains mind and thought. Therefore, the Rune Dao cannot be completely banned, for as long as there is thought, there will be runes.”
Lin Yuan listened intently.
Accompanying his continued comprehension of the words spoken by Lord of Heaven Light, he formed runes with his mind within this space of the book.
Under the dome of the sky, the Lord of Heaven Light continued to speak.
This is the unique aspect of this inheritance; only by comprehending the current portion can one listen to the subsequent parts.
Soon.
Lin Yuan reached the conclusion of his comprehension.
Under the dome of the sky, the Lord of Heaven Light, who radiated boundless light, paused his speech for a moment.
“Future cultivator, since you can hear to this point, you must be on the verge of fully understanding the inheritance I created.”
His gaze remained gentle, calm and unhurried, smiling as he said, “Next, I will explain my understanding of runes.”
“What are runes?”
“They encompass all. The path I have pursued is rooted in runes, consisting of two aspects.”
His eyes remained gentle as he gazed at Lin Yuan and continued, “One aspect is who I am now, while the other…”
As he spoke, his aura slowly began changing, the warm light illuminating everything faded, replaced by endless deep Demonic Qi.
The Lord of Heaven Light’s appearance also transformed, his white robe turning into a black robe, which seemed to contain infinite darkness. His gentle smile gradually vanished, replaced by a cold expression.
A black horn grew from his head, and a thick, pitch-black giant tail swayed behind him.
Lin Yuan looked at the entirely different ’Lord of Heaven Light’, his expression slightly chilled.
