"Now that Mr. Lin has entered the Sixth Stage, I'll take my leave."
The dwarf man bowed slightly to Lin Yuan and disappeared on the spot.
He followed the command of the Goddess of Wisdom to protect Lin Yuan until he reached the Sixth Stage.
Now that Lin Yuan has crossed into the Sixth Stage, the mission is considered complete.
Moreover, it was evident that the bald man and Lin Yuan, these two senior brothers, had something to discuss. It wouldn't be interesting for him to stay.
"So, he's a king of the Rat Demons?"
The eldest senior brother glanced at the departed dwarf man and whispered.
"Rat Demons?"
"A king?"
Lin Yuan's mind stirred.
He was aware of the Rat Demons, who had been assimilated into the human race for millions of years.
The fact that the Goddess of Wisdom entrusted the dwarf man to protect him indicated absolute trust.
In reality, these non-human races, assimilated over the long years into human civilization, might be more loyal to human civilization than some human tribes.
Their loved ones and clan members were all within the territory of human civilization.
Once they dared to betray, all their fellow clan members would be implicated.
As for the term "king," it referred to the title of a Seven-Stage peak Evolutionary.
Compared to Stages One to Six, each stage was divided into twelve segments.
A Seven-Stage Evolutionary had only three stages.
From weaker to stronger: Knight-level, Marquis-level, King-level.
In the Seven Stages, the King-level was already the pinnacle of the Seventh Stage. Even on the battlefield of non-human races, a King was enough to dominate an area.
"Thank you, Big Senior Brother, for protecting me during this time."
Lin Yuan said sincerely. Just a moment ago, when he saw his Big Senior Brother, he realized why his Big Senior Brother was confident and allowed him to practice on Canglan Star.
"We're all brothers; no need to thank me."
The eldest senior brother waved his hand.
"Let's go."
"Junior Brother, while the news of your breakthrough to the Sixth Stage hasn't spread, come back with me to the main star of Red Kun."
The eldest senior brother seemed to think of something and said immediately.
The Rat Demon dwarf man knew that Lin Yuan had already entered the Sixth Stage, but he definitely wouldn't spread the news.
So far,
no one else knew about Lin Yuan's breakthrough to the Sixth Stage.
Even on Canglan Star, those few Five-Stage Evolutionaries couldn't sense the subtle fluctuations of breaking through from the Fifth to the Sixth Stage.
"Alright."
Lin Yuan nodded, glanced at Canglan Star, "We..."
"You want to know how to get to the main star of Red Kun, right?"
The eldest senior brother smiled slightly, "If it were me, I would leisurely take a spaceship back."
"But with Junior Brother here, to avoid excessive worrying through the night, let's teleport directly back."
After the eldest senior brother finished speaking, a five-colored transparent crystal appeared in front of them. The crystal had a 'magic square' shape, emitting a faint spatial fluctuation.
"This magic square."
Lin Yuan felt that the magic square was very similar to the enormous magic square in the Seven-Star Cave World, representing a path beyond the Sixth Stage of evolution.
Both seemed to have the same origin.
"This is called the Crystal Magic Square, a gift from our teacher. Once crushed, it will form a spatial channel, and the other side is the main star of Red Kun."
The eldest senior brother said with a smile.
Crack.
The eldest senior brother held the Crystal Magic Square and gently squeezed it. The crystal magic square instantly shattered into powder, and the spatial force within the countless powders began to gather.
In front of the eldest senior brother, a spatial door was formed.
"Go in, Junior Brother."
The eldest senior brother closed his eyes and felt it gently. "The spatial channel is very stable, enough for a Sixth-Stage life to pass through."
"Senior Brother."
Lin Yuan looked down at Canglan Star.
"Are you worried about your family?"
The eldest senior brother smiled knowingly. "Rest assured, when you return to the main star, we will immediately announce your identity to the Morning Star. Then Morning Star will make it public."
"When Morning Star receives the news, they will send a specialized guard team to Canglan Star to protect your family."
The eldest senior brother paused for a moment and continued, "Actually, Junior Brother, you don't need to worry about your family's safety."
"Non-humans like to assassinate our human genius Evolvers, but they're not really interested in the families of genius Evolvers."
The eldest senior brother hinted.
"Not interested?"
Lin Yuan was surprised.
"For example, what I said is just an example."
The eldest senior brother smiled and said, "If your family is assassinated by non-humans, would you be defeated, Junior Brother?"
"No."
Lin Yuan shook his head.
"I see."
Lin Yuan suddenly realized.
High-level Evolvers had the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, and their mental states were naturally close to perfection.
If the death of one's family caused the mental state of a high-level Evolver to collapse, then all those years of cultivation would be in vain.
"The death of family and loved ones will only make the Evolver hate non-humans even more.
Especially for genius-level Evolvers, the passing of loved ones might serve as a catalyst, enabling them to break through faster.
As for capturing family members and using them as a threat? Throughout the long years of human civilization, no Evolver would accept threats from non-humans.
So, unless the circumstances are extraordinary, non-humans generally won't have thoughts about the families of human genius Evolvers; it doesn't make much practical sense.
"Go in."
Lin Yuan took a last look at Canglan Star beneath his feet and then entered the spatial channel with the eldest senior brother.
"The chaotic force of space is quite intense."
Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised. Even with the spatial channel blocking it, he could sense extremely violent spatial forces.
This level of chaotic violence far exceeded what Lin Yuan had perceived in the Godly Weapons World when he entered the spatial crack.
However, now, all the unruly and chaotic spatial forces were blocked by the spatial channel formed by the crystal magic square.
"The rules of space are truly amazing."
Lin Yuan followed the eldest senior brother, walking step by step within the spatial channel.
With each step, Lin Yuan vaguely sensed that he was crossing vast distances, but due to some compression within the spatial channel, light-years and tens of light-years were forcibly compressed into a few steps.
Lin Yuan had also delved into the rules of space. In the Seven-Star World, the enormous magic square representing a path beyond the Sixth Stage of evolution had been comprehended by Lin Yuan to the Seventh Stage.
However, compared to the mysteries of the space rules he was currently encountering, it was like a firefly comparing to the bright moon.
Soon, after just 'walking' a few dozen steps, Lin Yuan arrived on the other side of the spatial channel.
A planet, several hundred times larger than Canglan Star, appeared in the distance.
"That's the main star of Red Kun."
A smile appeared on the eldest senior brother's face.
Until this moment, the eldest senior brother felt that he and Junior Brother were completely safe.
Even if an Eighth-Stage pinnacle Evolver were to come now, being so close to the main star of Red Kun, the teacher Red Kun Star Lord could intervene with just a thought.
"So many powerful individuals."
Lin Yuan faintly felt that on the main star of Red Kun, many high-level Evolvers were lurking. On Red Kun's main star, Evolvers who had fallen to the Sixth Stage were no longer rare.
"I have now entered the Sixth Stage, and my soul fusion transformation is complete, integrated with the path of martial evolution."
"Even a powerful teacher like the Red Kun Star Lord cannot see through which evolution path I am cultivating."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
After becoming the Thirteenth Peak Master of Red Kun, Lin Yuan was reluctant to return to the main star of Red Kun mainly because he was afraid that the martial evolution path he was cultivating would be seen through by other high-level Evolvers.
You must know that the potential revealed by the martial evolution path he was practicing was expected to advance to the Eighth Stage evolution path.
As the founder of this evolutionary path, Lin Yuan, to some extent, is the 'seed' of the Evolver scholars.
This identity far surpasses the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun lineage because any Evolver scholar is the true foundation of human civilization.
Moreover, Evolver scholars start at the Eighth Stage, and their civic status is unbelievably high. Their influence is much greater than that of individual powerful Evolvers.
"Follow me."
The eldest senior brother's thoughts moved slightly.
The surrounding space faintly distorted, isolating his and Lin Yuan's appearance and aura.
Whoosh.
The eldest senior brother, with Lin Yuan, entered the main star of Red Kun.
During the process, numerous fluctuations came, seemingly confirming identity permissions.
Soon, the two arrived at the center of the planet, a continent formed by more than ten peaks.
Looking around, Lin Yuan could see a total of fourteen peaks. The largest main peak in the middle belonged to the teacher, the Red Kun Star Lord. The other thirteen peaks belonged to Lin Yuan and the other thirteen peak masters.
While walking, the eldest senior brother said, "Since Junior Brother has come to the main star, the Red Kun lineage will update the information of the Thirteen Peak Masters."
"Junior Brother comes from Canglan Star, and Canglan Star is a living planet in the Dawn Star System. Therefore, the Red Kun lineage will first announce the target as the Dawn Star System and then spread it outward from the Dawn Star."
"Alright," Lin Yuan nodded.
With the strength reaching the Sixth Stage, he could completely bear the identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun lineage, and there wouldn't be a situation of 'virtue not matching'.
Except for the eldest senior brother, second senior brother, and third senior brother, the rest of the senior brothers were also at the Sixth Stage.
When the Red Kun Star Lord took over the body of the Star Sea Wanderer, and why he dared to return to the Human Civilization Alliance only after reaching the Seventh Stage back then was because the Red Kun Star Lord was not a conventional genius. The Star Sea Wanderer's cub he possessed was easy to attract hatred.
For example, the 'parents' of the original Star Sea Wanderer? And special life groups like the Star Sea Wanderers?
While the number of Star Sea Wanderers was indeed rare, there were still some, and those with powerful bloodlines had a much higher probability of giving birth to strong individuals.
Exactly because of this.
The Red Kun Star Lord hid until the Seventh Stage, only then did he dare to show up and return to human civilization.
"I wonder how that guy from Dawn, upon learning that a peak genius like Junior Brother has been born in his star system, will react."
The eldest senior brother's tone carried some emotion.
As the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun lineage, Lin Yuan wielded the authority of life and death over a star domain.
Lin Yuan came from the Dawn Star System, and there was a high probability that he would have some fondness for the Dawn Star System.
While this fondness might not be significant, compared to other completely unfamiliar star systems, it would undoubtedly lean towards the Dawn Star System.
Under these conditions, as long as the Dawn Star System did not act recklessly, it was equivalent to having a powerful backing, and the influence of the Red Kun Star Domain would be more significant.
This was just the impact Lin Yuan's arrival would have on the vast Dawn Star System. As for Canglan Star, as long as Lin Yuan wished, Canglan Star might even ascend to a higher-level life planet because of him.
The promotion from a medium-level life planet to a high-level life planet involved various aspects, such as the level of cosmic energy the planet could accommodate, the number of strong individuals, and so on.
Typically, higher-level life planets are mostly naturally born, and it's rare for a medium-level life planet to ascend to a higher-level life planet.
Because the cost involved in this process is too great.
But as long as Lin Yuan, the Thirteenth Peak Master, gives his tacit support, it is only a matter of time before Canglan Star ascends to a higher-level life planet.
"Senior Brother, shall we go see the teacher now?" Lin Yuan asked.
"See the teacher?" The eldest senior brother shook his head and said, "There's no need for that."
"When you entered the main star of Red Kun, the teacher already knew. Whether you see him or not doesn't affect anything."
The eldest senior brother looked at Lin Yuan, his expression slightly serious. "Junior Brother, the most important thing for you now is not to see the teacher, and not to continue cultivating."
"Instead..."
"Embed your life essence, form a mark, and then imprint it in the universe."
The eldest senior brother said solemnly.
The life essence of a Sixth Stage Evolver is powerful enough to leave a mark in the universe. This mark is also called a life imprint. As long as the imprint is there, even if Lin Yuan falls, the strongest individuals of the human race can use this life imprint as an 'anchor' to reverse time and resurrect.
As for those below the Sixth Stage, if their life essence is not strong enough, they will truly die, and there's no way to save them.
"Understood." Lin Yuan nodded.
Embedding the life imprint in the universe is the first thing all Evolvers do when they step into the Sixth Stage. This is crucial for potential resurrection in the future. Even those Sixth Stage Evolvers who are not eligible for resurrection will do this.
Perhaps in some future years, if his descendants achieve great things, they might pray for the strongest to resurrect him?
Dawn Star.
The Red Kun Star Domain has eight major star systems and over a million life planets.
Among them, the Dawn Star System is not the weakest among the eight star systems, but it is also not related to the strongest, usually ranking fifth or sixth.
Dawn Star, a certain department.
This department is one of the core departments of Dawn Star, responsible for connecting with the main star of Red Kun and constantly conveying the many orders sent by the Red Kun main star.
"Ah, I don't know when the Thirteenth Peak Master advanced to the Sixth Stage, and the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master. Could it be from our Dawn Star System?"
Inside the department, a female employee was a bit bored, chatting with her colleagues.
In the virtual world arena, the last few battles of the Thirteenth Peak Master, especially slapping Wan Yang Saint Son with two palms, convinced many outside experts that the Thirteenth Peak Master's soul integration had reached one hundred percent.
Entering the Sixth Stage was just a matter of time.
And once he became the Sixth Stage, the identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master would no longer be confidential and could be made public.
According to the Red Kun main star's style of doing things, the Thirteenth Peak Master's origin would be spread by the main star of that origin.
If the Thirteenth Peak Master didn't come from the eight major star systems, the Red Kun main star would personally announce it.
"I think the possibility of the Thirteenth Peak Master coming from the Dawn Star System is small. In my Dawn Star System, there are only a little over a hundred high-level life planets, while other powerful star systems start with several hundred high-level life planets."
"Geniuses like the Thirteenth Peak Master are most likely born on high-level life planets."
Another department employee spoke up.
Among the many differences between high-level life planets and medium to low-level life planets, there is a difference in the probability of producing geniuses.
The former is much higher than the latter.
High-level life planets have a higher quality of cosmic energy, and living long-term in this quality of cosmic energy, even if one is mediocre, can surpass geniuses on medium-level life planets.
"Any news from other star systems?" asked the third department employee.
If the Thirteenth Peak Master comes from another star system, the Red Kun main star will definitely notify that star system, and the information will be made public immediately.
"Not yet."
"I've been paying attention."
The first female employee who spoke at the beginning said.
"It's been so long, the Thirteenth Peak Master should have broken through. If it's to be made public, it would have been made public. Could it be that the Thirteenth Peak Master really comes from outside the Red Kun Star Domain, picked up by the Star Master during their cosmic travels?"
A department employee wondered.
Just as everyone was chatting.
Ding ding ding ding ding—
The entire department suddenly lit up in red.
"Received a document from the Red Kun main star."
"The true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master is from the Dawn Star System."
"What?"
"The Thirteenth Peak Master really comes from our Dawn Star System?"
Within the department, all members were dumbfounded. They had fantasized about this possibility. After all, if the Dawn Star System was indeed the Thirteenth Peak Master's home system, then in the future, the entire Dawn Star System would benefit from the Thirteenth Peak Master.
Not to mention gaining resource advantages, at the very least, it wouldn't be treated as a resource to be tilted away.
However, everyone knew that it was just wishful thinking. It was like before the lottery results were announced, almost everyone who bought a lottery ticket would fantasize about winning a big prize.
But now, someone was telling them that their fantasy had become a reality?
"Thirteenth Peak Master."
Everyone was excited and immediately began browsing the information file sent by the Red Kun main star about the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master.
"Thirteenth Peak Master, real name 'Lin Yuan,' from the Canglan Star, the champion of the last Canglan Star Arena, participated in the Seven-Star Cave trial."
"Thirteenth Peak Master was actually born on a medium-level life planet? A mere medium-level life planet could give birth to such an exceptional genius like the Thirteenth Peak Master?"
"It's unbelievable. The document says that when the Thirteenth Peak Master participated in the last arena, he was only at the fourth level. Now he's at the sixth level?"
"I understand. Before participating in the arena, the Thirteenth Peak Master should have practiced on the backward medium-level life planet, cultivated to the fourth level, and then entered the Seven-Star Cave world, receiving guidance and trials from the Star Master, and immediately soared to new heights."
The many members of the department, looking at the information about the Thirteenth Peak Master, were filled with various thoughts.
"President."
At this moment, one of the members looked up and saw a burly man appearing.
"President."
Upon hearing this, the others immediately looked up and respectfully greeted the burly man.
In the Dawn Star System, only the dominant figure in the Dawn Society was addressed as the 'President.'
The Dawn Society was the most powerful force in the Dawn Star System, and the entire star system was named after it.
Of course, no matter how powerful the Dawn Society was, it was a subordinate force of the Red Kun lineage, and it followed orders from the Red Kun lineage.
"Hahaha, the Thirteenth Peak Master really comes from our Dawn Star System?"
The President of the Dawn Society showed extreme joy on his face, with none of the usual high and mighty demeanor.
"President, what should we do now?"
The department head couldn't help but speak.
In theory, currently, the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master is known only to the important figures on the Red Kun main star, aside from them.
"What to do?"
"Let me think about it."
The President of the Dawn Society concentrated his mind.
He was so excited just now that he temporarily neglected how to face this matter.
Undoubtedly, the Thirteenth Peak Master coming from the Dawn Star System was a great opportunity for the Dawn Star System.
But no matter how great the opportunity was, it had to be seized. The Dawn Star System had to seize this opportunity, especially not allowing other forces to take advantage of it.
"Like this."
"I will personally go to the Red Kun main star, show my face in front of the Thirteenth Peak Master, and congratulate the Peak Master on reaching the sixth level."
The President of the Dawn Society spoke up.
Since the Red Kun main star has transmitted the real identity information of the Thirteenth Peak Master, it means that the Thirteenth Peak Master is already on the Red Kun main star.
"Next, the Thirteenth Peak Master should still have parents and a younger sister on the Canglan Star."
After learning the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master, the President of the Dawn Society immediately connected to the virtual world and found the basic information of 'Lin Yuan.'
"Now, with my guard team, you should go to the Canglan Star at the fastest speed to protect the Peak Master's parents."
The President of the Dawn Society looked at the supervisor.
He planned to do it with both hands; protecting the Peak Master's relatives should be a safe move.
"Alright, now we can announce the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master."
The President of the Dawn Society didn't dare to delay. After receiving the information from the Red Kun lineage, the Dawn main star had to act as quickly as possible.
Of course, as the disseminator of the identity announcement, the President of the Dawn Society would be the first to know the news and could make preparations in advance.
Dawn Star System.
Headquarters of the Black Prison Family.
As one of the top five forces in the Red Kun Star Region, the Black Prison Family had stationed planets in all eight star systems.
The so-called stationed planets meant that the entire planet belonged to the Black Prison Family and also served as the family's branch in that star system.
Overseeing all matters of the Black Prison Family in the Dawn Star System.
The Dawn Star System had a total of 120,000 life planets, and most of these planets had various degrees of trade and economic exchanges with the Black Prison Family.
And at this moment.
The news about the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master had been transmitted from the Dawn main star to here.
In a garden.
A man wearing a loose robe was leisurely lying there.
Two beautiful women beside him were gently massaging him.
The man in the loose robe was named Heiyu Qin, the second uncle of Heiyu Pincer.
Before Heiyu Pincer severed all trade and exchanges between the Black Prison Family and the Canglan Star, it was done through Heiyu Qin.
"Although far from the core of family power, at least I am free, and there are not many people who can manage me."
Heiyu Qin was in a good mood, not every member of the Black Prison Family had ambitions to climb higher; Heiyu Qin was quite satisfied with the current situation.
Just as Heiyu Qin was enjoying himself.
A deep voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Heiyu Qin, come to me."
Although this voice had no emotional fluctuations, it was obviously suppressing some kind of anger and fear.
"The elder is calling me?"
Heiyu Qin suddenly shivered.
"Come immediately."
Although he didn't know what the elder wanted him for, Heiyu Qin knew that he absolutely couldn't disobey the elder.
Soon after, Heiyu Qin arrived in front of the elder.
"Elder."
Heiyu Qing bowed deeply, displaying a humble posture.
"Heiyu Qin, I have already sent you a document, take a good look at it," the elder took a deep breath, "and then, give me an explanation."
"Ah?"
"Alright."
Upon hearing this, Heiyu Qin immediately began to receive the document sent by the elder.
"Red Kun lineage, the true identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master is an evolutionist named 'Lin Yuan' from the Dawn Star System, Canglan Star."
The more Heiyu Qin read, the more anxious he became. His mind trembled, his legs weakened, and he even found it hard to control himself, ending up sitting on the ground.
Lin Yuan?
Wasn't his nephew Heiyu Pincer, from some time ago, cutting off trade with Canglan Star for this Lin Yuan?
And now.
This Lin Yuan's identity is the Thirteenth Peak Master?
Heiyu Qin felt dizzy, and even breathing became extremely difficult.
He understood what his actions truly meant. He personally intervened, cut off the trade, and declared that everything was because Lin Yuan didn't know his place.
Now.
Lin Yuan had become one of the high-ranking members of the Red Kun lineage, one of the top figures in the Red Kun Star Region. Not to mention himself, even Heiyu Mo, the family's sea-setting god needle, would have to show respect to Lin Yuan.
And he, unexpectedly, had suppressed Lin Yuan before?
"Heiyu Pincer, Heiyu Pincer, you've caused me great trouble. You've made me face an immeasurable calamity."
Heiyu Qin crawled to the elder and hugged his legs, saying, "Elder, all of this has nothing to do with me. It's all because of Heiyu Pincer. Heiyu Pincer made me do this."
"I have no grievances or grudges with Lin Yuan, the Thirteenth Peak Master. It's all Heiyu Pincer making me do this."
Heiyu Qin cried bitterly.
He knew he was finished. Whether he did this on his own or was instigated by others, as someone directly suppressing the Thirteenth Peak Master, there was definitely no good outcome.
But even in death, there were differences. The Black Prison Family had ways to make a criminal's life worse than death.
"Heiyu Pincer?"
The elder closed his eyes. "I will discuss this matter with the family."
"As for you."
The elder looked at the sobbing Heiyu Qin.
Immediately.
Guards approached and pressed Heiyu Qin down.
When Heiyu Qin disappeared, the elder turned around and looked at the others behind him.
These people were all high-level members of the Black Prison Family stationed in the Dawn Star System, and at this moment, they all looked grave.
Before Heiyu Qin arrived, they had already come, and they had a rough understanding of the situation.
"Everyone, it's time to discuss the life and death of us and the entire Black Prison Family," the elder said in a low and slow tone.
Life and death.
The minds of the others trembled slightly.
Indeed, it was a matter of life and death.
Had the Black Prison Family really offended the Thirteenth Peak Master?
As one of the top five powers in the Red Kun Star Region, the Black Prison Family was deeply rooted and had a profound influence.
Even if they offended the Thirteenth Peak Master, there wouldn't be immediate consequences.
But over time, they would undoubtedly rapidly decline, and in a few hundred or thousand years, they might face complete extinction.
So, what the Black Prison Family was currently facing could truly be considered a matter of life and death.
"If only I hadn't given Heiyu Qin the power to cut off all trade with a life-bearing planet. Although it's not a major issue, it's not a trivial matter either. If we had reviewed it, such a thing might not have happened."
"It's only a possibility. Heiyu Pincer is a direct descendant of the family, and if he came to us saying he wanted to cut off trade with Canglan Star, would you have disagreed? The mistake lies in the fact that a mediocre life-bearing planet like Canglan Star could actually produce such a prominent figure as the Thirteenth Peak Master, and Heiyu Pincer unexpectedly ran into the Thirteenth Peak Master."
"Now that it has happened, discussing these things is meaningless. The most crucial thing now is how to resolve the Thirteenth Peak Master's hostility towards our Black Prison Family."
"Heiyu Qin will certainly have to answer for it, but the main culprit is Heiyu Pincer, and Heiyu Pincer—"
There were various discussions among the people present. Regarding Heiyu Qin, they had the authority to decide how to handle him, but Heiyu Pincer was, after all, Heiyu Mo's son.
How to handle Heiyu Pincer still required consulting Heiyu Mo's opinion.
"I will take care of this matter."
"It concerns the family's heritage. Regardless of who it is, if someone has to sacrifice, they must. As long as we can salvage the Thirteenth Peak Master and eliminate his hostility towards the family, any cost is worth it."
The elder stood up, looked at everyone, and said decisively.
Red Kun Main Star.
Official cultivation location.
Fang Qing sat cross-legged, contemplating the appearance of a certain 'ancient god' in his mind.
The evolution of the ancient god's path, the method of cultivation, was simple in description but difficult in practice.
It involved contemplating the 'ancient god' corresponding to one's own evolutionary path and imitating them as much as possible.
The difficulty lay in the slightest mistake, which could lead to instant backlash and death.
"Hoo."
Fang Qing finished his cultivation, and a relaxed expression appeared on his face.
Just then.
"Fang kid, quickly look at the documents, go check the documents!!!"
A roar resounded, coming from the white-bearded old man.
"Fussing about, what could be such a big deal?"
Fang Qing frowned slightly, feeling that his teacher was being overly alarmed, as if he had never seen the world.
"Do you want to look or not!"
The white-bearded old man raised his tone.
"I'll look, I'll look, but I definitely won't be as frantic as you—"
Fang Qing immediately browsed through the documents, simultaneously expressing his amazement.
Until—
"The real identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master is an Evolver named 'Lin Yuan' from Canglan Star in the Dawn Galaxy."
"What the heck?" Fang Qing's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Brother Lin is the Thirteenth Peak Master?" Fang Qing was somewhat dumbfounded. After re-reading the document several times, confirming that the 'Lin Yuan' mentioned was indeed his acquaintance 'Brother Lin,' and not some coincidence of names, his mind turned into mush.
It took a moment for Fang Qing to reluctantly regain his composure.
"This... this..."
Fang Qing widened his eyes. Although reminded by the white-bearded old man, he understood that Lin Yuan should have some cards up his sleeve. Otherwise, he wouldn't have straightforwardly rejected Heiyu Pincer's recruitment.
But were these cards too significant?
The Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun lineage? Was this even a card?
"So that's it."
"I was wondering, with your talents, Brother Lin, how could you possibly fail the Seven-Star Cave trial? Even someone like you, who's essentially trash, passed. It didn't make sense."
"So that's it."
"So that's it."
The voice of the white-bearded old man sounded in realization.
Fang Qing twitched at the corner of his mouth. He had some objections to being called 'trash' by the white-bearded old man, but when he thought about it being compared to Brother Lin, he immediately dared not say anything more.
"Thirteenth Peak Master..."
Fang Qing couldn't help but look up at the fourteen peaks standing in the center of the main star, far in the distance.
Inside the palace.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
"The essence of life, imprint, merging into the universe?"
Lin Yuan contemplated carefully while sensing everything within his body.
After reaching the Sixth Order, his physical and spiritual body underwent substantial transformations. Lin Yuan vaguely felt a deeper layer of space in the universe.
Whether it was real or illusory, Lin Yuan had a feeling that it was a place his physical body could never reach.
According to the Red Kun lineage's description of that space, it should be the source space of this cosmic universe.
It was the most core place in the universe, where only illusory things like life imprints could blend in.
As for life itself? No matter how powerful the life was, it was impossible to enter the source space.
"The essence of life."
Lin Yuan slowly operated the power within his body, faintly resonating with that layer of space.
"I felt it."
"It should be merging soon."
Lin Yuan's spirit shook, realizing that integrating life imprints didn't require much skill; otherwise, a Sixth-Order Evolver wouldn't be able to achieve it.
After sensing the space that held the life imprint, the final integration was imminent.
As the life imprint continued to merge, Lin Yuan felt much at ease. He could allocate part of his consciousness to focus on other matters.
"The Gate of Myriad Realms."
A portion of Lin Yuan's consciousness arrived deep in his mind.
This was his first visit here since reaching the Sixth Order.
"What's this?"
As soon as Lin Yuan's consciousness arrived, he noticed changes in the Gate of Myriad Realms.
Compared to before reaching the Sixth Order, the Gate of Myriad Realms became more majestic, grand, almost unbearable to look at. It seemed less illusory and more like a tangible object.
It's worth noting that since Lin Yuan sensed the Gate of Myriad Realms,
this enormous gate had always been illusory. Even when the peripheral area was illuminated, its illusory nature was still apparent.
But now, the Gate of Myriad Realms unexpectedly gave Lin Yuan a real sense.
In addition,
as Lin Yuan gazed at the Gate of Myriad Realms,
a massive amount of information surged into Lin Yuan's soul.
End of two more chapters.
Almost time for the fifth traversal.
"This information."
Lin Yuan rubbed his forehead, even suspending the act of integrating the life imprint into the universe. It was evident that the received information was exceptionally vast and crucial.
"So, the 'Gate of Myriad Realms' deep in my mind is just a projection of the real Gate of Myriad Realms."
Lin Yuan's thoughts converged, silently contemplating.
The genuine Gate of Myriad Realms was something that 'feeble' and 'insignificant' life like Lin Yuan couldn't bear. Even though the former had acknowledged Lin Yuan as its master, the disparity in their levels made it challenging to coexist in the same space.
With Lin Yuan's strength before reaching the Sixth Order, carrying a projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms was already a limit.
Even now, as a Sixth Order Evolver with a transformed life essence, capable of leaving an imprint in the main world, he still couldn't bear the true Gate of Myriad Realms. Of course, there were changes after reaching the Sixth Order.
The essence contained in the Gate of Myriad Realms projection Lin Yuan carried had significantly improved.
This was evident from the additional information Lin Yuan obtained about the 'Gate of Myriad Realms.'
"Power of Dimensional Breaking?"
Lin Yuan's expression became slightly serious.
According to the information he received from the projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms, understanding the 'Power of Dimensional Breaking' was one of the core energy sources of the Gate of Myriad Realms.
The projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms could accumulate a strand of Power of Dimensional Breaking from the void every three hundred and thirty-three days.
The specific manifestation was the illumination of the peripheral area of the Gate of Myriad Realms.
In simple terms, one strand of Power of Dimensional Breaking allowed Lin Yuan to traverse once.
The Power of Dimensional Breaking had many uses.
With ten strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking, Lin Yuan could return to a world he had traversed before.
This was quite good, Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Although the four traversals so far had ended with Lin Yuan being invincible in those worlds,
with the increasing number of traversals and the higher levels of the worlds he traversed,
given the limited residence time imposed by the Gate of Myriad Realms, Lin Yuan couldn't guarantee that he could breakthrough every time.
If he traversed a world with important treasures or opportunities without fully enjoying them,
he could use this method to return and continue enjoying in that world.
However, this required the treasures or opportunities to be significant enough, as ten strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking were enough for Lin Yuan to traverse ten times.
"Fifty strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking can enable physical traversal."
Lin Yuan had long known that the Gate of Myriad Realms wasn't limited to conscious descent but could also facilitate physical traversal.
However, this method of traversal, while establishing a massive advantage in the early stages without any cultivation,
simultaneously increased the risks.
Once he perished while traversing a world physically, it would likely be a genuine death, far worse than the chance of having a second try provided by the conscious descent traversal method.
"A hundred strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking allow me to choose worlds for traversal according to my requirements."
In other words, Lin Yuan can control the type and direction of the worlds he traverses based on his needs.
This utility satisfies Lin Yuan quite a lot.
The current traversals through the Gate of Myriad Realms are all random.
Such random traversals might not have any disadvantages in the early stages, but as Lin Yuan's strength and realm continuously improve, some traversed worlds may not bring him significant benefits.
At this point, the effect of 'customized' traversal becomes apparent.
Lin Yuan can completely customize a world that aligns with his cultivation system and can provide significant help.
"A hundred strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking are too expensive."
Considering the efficiency of accumulating one strand of Power of Dimensional Breaking every three hundred and thirty-three days according to the projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms.
A hundred strands would take around ninety years.
"A thousand strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking allow bringing back one item from any traversed world."
Lin Yuan sighed.
Waiting for over ninety years for a hundred strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking, and nearly a thousand years for a thousand strands, seems too long.
The use of this kind of Power of Dimensional Breaking is not even considered by Lin Yuan unless it involves a special world-source treasure.
"A myriad strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking."
Lin Yuan didn't see the specific effect of myriad strands of Power of Dimensional Breaking, but based on the information received, it should have some use.
"Now, the accumulated 'Power of Dimensional Breaking' by the projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms?"
Lin Yuan sensed it a bit and found that the 'Power of Dimensional Breaking' he currently possessed was a little more than one strand.
"The time to accumulate 'Power of Dimensional Breaking' should be based on the main world."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and continued to integrate a bit of the life imprint into the universe.
Canglan Star.
Prime Minister Song Wuyang stretched lazily.
"Lord Prime Minister, all current affairs have been handled. Next will be your personal rest time," came the voice of the intelligent assistant.
"Personal rest time?" Song Wuyang smiled.
Suddenly, at this moment, the voice of the intelligent assistant came again.
"Lord Prime Minister, Noland* Chenxi requests communication."
"Noland* Chenxi?" Song Wuyang suddenly tensed.
The surname Chenxi is from the most powerful force in the Chenxi Star System—the Chenxi Association.
And Noland* Chenxi is the vice president of the Chenxi Association, a significant figure second only to the president in the entire Chenxi Star System.
"Agree to the communication."
Song Wuyang took a deep breath, calming his emotions.
"Immediately instruct," he ordered.
He felt a bit uneasy, not knowing why such a prominent figure would personally contact him. Canglan Star had just recovered from the suppression by the Black Prison Family.
Don't let anything unexpected happen again.
Buzz.
On the virtual screen in front of him, the figure of Nolan Chenxi appeared.
"Greetings, Lord Nolan."
Song Wuyang's tone was somewhat reserved.
"Why Lord? Just call me Nolan."
Nolan Chenxi seemed amiable, not displaying the sternness and unapproachability that Song Wuyang had imagined.
"The planet you govern, Canglan Star, is truly remarkable, unexpectedly giving birth to such a great Evolver."
Nolan Chenxi said with a smile.
"What?" Song Wuyang blinked.
He understood every word Nolan Chenxi said, but when combined, Song Wuyang couldn't figure out what was happening.
What did 'remarkable' mean?
Nolan Chenxi, the Vice President of the Chenxi Society, might not even pay attention to high-level life planets, let alone Canglan Star.
But now, this influential figure in the Chenxi Star System took the initiative to say that Canglan Star was remarkable?
And what about giving birth to such a great Evolver?
Song Wuyang still didn't get it.
He was roughly aware of the current number and situation of Evolvers on Canglan Star. There was no Evolver that could be considered 'great' according to Nolan Chenxi's standards.
"Lord Nolan, I don't understand what you mean."
Song Wuyang asked cautiously.
"Forget that this news hasn't reached Canglan Star yet."
Nolan Chenxi's smile didn't fade, and his gaze towards Song Wuyang became even more friendly. "You should know Lord Thirteen Peaks, right?"
"Lord Thirteen Peaks?"
Song Wuyang was puzzled.
He naturally knew Lord Thirteen Peaks.
This was the pride of the Red Kun Star Domain. Not long ago, Lord Thirteen Peaks challenged the genius Evolvers of various star domains. Even the invincible saint from the Wan Yang Star Domain bowed down in defeat to Lord Thirteen Peaks.
Song Wuyang not only knew Lord Thirteen Peaks but had watched every challenge of Lord Thirteen Peaks, almost becoming a fan.
But what was the connection between Lord Thirteen Peaks and him?
If the Chenxi Star System dared to imagine something, Lord Thirteen Peaks came from their own star system.
Then, Song Wuyang didn't even dare to imagine because the probability was too low, almost impossible.
With over a million life planets in the Red Kun Star Domain, including high-level life planets and various main stars, why would the great Lord Thirteen Peaks come from a backward and remote planet like Canglan Star?
This was simply unscientific.
"Lord Nolan, about Lord Thirteen Peaks..."
Song Wuyang asked in confusion.
"That's correct."
Nolan Chenxi nodded and said, "The real identity of the great Lord Thirteen Peaks is an Evolver named 'Lin Yuan' from your Canglan Star."
"By the way, Lord Thirteen Peaks also participated in the arena competition and won the championship. You should have an impression."
Nolan Chenxi spoke in a friendly tone.
"The real identity of Lord Thirteen Peaks is 'Lin Yuan.'"
Song Wuyang was stunned, momentarily unable to react.
After a breath, Song Wuyang's eyes widened, almost losing composure on the spot.
Lord Thirteen Peaks is Lin Yuan?
Lin Yuan is Lord Thirteen Peaks?
Song Wuyang felt his head spinning, as if he was being hit by a pie.
No, this was more than just a pie.
"The real identity of Lord Thirteen Peaks will be announced by our Chenxi Main Star. You, Canglan Star, will soon know this news. I'm informing you in advance to be prepared."
Nolan Chenxi said, "Also, shortly, the President's Guard will come to protect Lord Thirteen Peaks' family. You should know what to do when that happens."
Nolan Chenxi reminded.
"Nolan, rest assured. Before the President's Guard arrives, the defense system of Canglan Star will be fully closed, prohibiting any force from entering."
Song Wuyang took a deep breath and immediately spoke.
"Then, I'll trouble you, Governor."
Nolan Chenxi nodded slightly, a satisfied expression on his face.
Although he believed that no one would arrive faster than his Chenxi Society to Lord Thirteen Peaks' parents, it was always better to be prepared.
"Now you can go and arrange. Remember, the most important task for Canglan Star right now is to protect Lord Thirteen Peaks' family until the President's Guard arrives."
After saying this, Nolan Chenxi ended the call.
Plop.
Song Wuyang sat on the ground.
"Lord Lin Yuan."
"Lord Thirteen Peaks."
Song Wuyang's mind was racing.
He immediately thought of the previous situation where Lin Yuan faced public opinion oppression on Canglan Star due to the Black Prison Family's suppression.
"Compile a list."
"Since the moment the Black Prison Family cut off trade with Canglan Star, anyone on the network who has insulted or blamed Lord Lin Yuan, regardless of their identity, should be included in the list."
Song Wuyang immediately began to arrange.
He couldn't let Lord Thirteen Peaks have the slightest feeling of injustice on Canglan Star.
Black Prison Family's momentum was strong, with a business blueprint provided by the family's think tank. He just needed to proceed step by step.
"Young Master."
"All training is normal, and the power increase of all Evolvers is as expected."
The elderly servant in a black suit, Bei Zhao, respectfully reported the results.
"En."
"I understand."
Black Prison Pincers felt pleased.
If the plan went smoothly, the Evolvers he cultivated would shine in the next arena competition.
"The Evolvers who practice 'divination' are too terrifying; they can capture any subtle information and make decisions that are most favorable to themselves."
Black Prison Pincers sighed slightly.
If it weren't for the list provided by the family's think tank, how could Black Prison Pincers know that these Evolvers had such great potential for advancement? Could they significantly increase their strength with a little cultivation?
Just then,
"Father is looking for me?"
Black Prison Pincers' mind tightened.
He received a video call from his father.
This made Black Prison Pincers a bit at a loss.
Black Prison Pincers' father is the pillar of the Black Prison Family, the Seventh Order Evolver, Heiyu Mo.
As Heiyu Mo's youngest son, Black Prison Pincers could count on one hand the number of times he had seen Heiyu Mo.
Let alone his father personally making a video call to him.
"Could it be that Father has found out about my achievements outside?"
Black Prison Pincers speculated and quickly accepted his father's call.
On the virtual screen in front of him,
Soon, the figure of Heiyu Mo appeared.
Heiyu Mo was tall, emitting a kind of dark and cold aura.
"Heiyu Pincers."
Heiyu Mo's tone was icy. "I have sent someone to pick you up. Don't resist later."
After saying this,
Heiyu Mo disconnected the call.
"Ah?"
Black Prison Pincers were a bit bewildered.
His own father, the cornerstone of the Black Prison Family, personally made a video call just to say this?
"Pick me up to the family?"
Black Prison Pincers fell into silence.
He had dreamed of returning to the family.
But his father Heiyu Mo's words made him somewhat uneasy.
"What exactly happened?"
Black Prison Pincers frowned and pondered.
"Young Master." At this time, Bei Zhao, the elderly servant in a black suit, suddenly walked in.
"The Chenxi Main Star has announced the identity of Lord Thirteen Peaks."
"Oh?" Black Prison Pincers were shaken, immediately connecting to the virtual world to receive relevant documents.
"The true identity of Lord Thirteen Peaks is Lin Yuan from the Canglan Star."
Black Prison Pincers was stunned. He disconnected from the virtual world, shook his head to fully wake himself up, and then re-entered the virtual world.
However, the information about the true identity of Lord Thirteen Peaks on the documents still indicated Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan from the Canglan Star.
"How could this be?" Black Prison Pincers found it unbelievable. "Why would the great Lord Thirteen Peaks come from a backward intermediate life star?"
While it was shocking that Lord Thirteen Peaks came from the Canglan Star, Black Prison Pincers couldn't believe that the Evolver he casually targeted would turn out to be Lord Thirteen Peaks.
"Why?"
"Why am I so unlucky?"
The information came from the official sources of the Chenxi Main Star, making its authenticity unquestionable.
Coupled with his father Heiyu Mo's attitude just now, Black Prison Pincers realized the enormity of the crime he had committed.
"It's over."
Black Prison Pincers looked ashen.
He was well aware of the consequences of offending Lord Thirteen Peaks.
Even if Lord Thirteen Peaks didn't pursue it, with his father Heiyu Mo's personality, he wouldn't let Black Prison Pincers off the hook.
Just when Black Prison Pincers trembled in fear,
A figure in a black coat appeared silently.
He stood behind Black Prison Pincers and said in a cold tone, "Young Master Black Prison Pincers, come with me."
