Chapter 211: Replacing the Demon Ancestor Tree, Lin Yuan's Choice (Seeking Subscriptions)
In the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountains:
Here, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth boiled, and terrifying spatial cracks appeared one after another. However, due to the recovery of the void itself, they quickly healed.
If this place weren't Lin Yuan's lair, which he had managed for over a hundred years, stabilizing the space through special means, the void within tens of thousands of miles would probably have been shattered.
After all, the recent battle was too terrifying. In order to prevent the Demon Ancestor Tree from having any chance, Lin Yuan didn't hold back his subordinates at all.
All the foundations and tricks were thrown at the Demon Ancestor Tree without reservation.
Since Lin Yuan would leave this world when his residence time expired, unless he paid the cost of breaking through the source, he couldn't take away even a bit of this world.
So, Lin Yuan didn't have any intention of saving.
"Ancestor? Are you still there, Ancestor?"
After swallowing the dispersed origin of the Demon Ancestor Tree in one gulp, Lin Yuan asked in a low voice.
However, Lin Yuan didn't receive any response from the Demon Ancestor Tree.
Lin Yuan didn't show any surprise. At the moment when the body of the Demon Ancestor Tree was torn apart, Lin Yuan sensed that the aura of the Demon Ancestor Tree dropped to freezing point.
Now, he couldn't sense the slightest breath from the Demon Ancestor Tree.
As the offspring of the Demon Tree, sensing the aura of the Demon Ancestor Tree was instinctual.
Even if the distance was far and there were layers of world barriers, at most, he could sense it vaguely.
But now, the aura of the Demon Ancestor Tree seemed to have completely disappeared.
Obviously, the Demon Ancestor Tree had completely fallen.
"Is that it?"
Lin Yuan sighed, looking somewhat disappointed.
He had originally wanted to exchange a few moves with the Demon Ancestor Tree. He had instructed the Tianqing Alliance Master not to hold back and go all out.
However, in reality, Lin Yuan's strongest trump card was still himself.
In the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountains, benefiting from the characteristics of the Demon Tree, Lin Yuan could exert his maximum combat power.
"Master, what should we do now?"
At this moment, the Tianqing Alliance Master and many subordinates approached, respectfully inquiring.
During the moment when the Demon Ancestor Tree passed through the spatial channel, their attacks had not ceased.
Only when Lin Yuan shouted 'stop' did they stop.
"You all can go back."
Lin Yuan casually instructed.
With the complete death of the Demon Ancestor Tree, Lin Yuan began to face the next problem.
That is, the other offspring of the Demon Tree.
First, he needed to understand the secrets of the Demon Tree, an outer-domain evil god.
The Demon Ancestor Tree was the absolute ruler of countless Demon Trees. As long as it was alive, the other offspring of the Demon Tree would unquestionably obey its commands.
This was a mental and ideological imprisonment.
Secondly, there was a physical imprisonment. With just a thought, the Demon Ancestor Tree could destroy any offspring of the Demon Tree.
Of course.
Lin Yuan was an accident.
Using the Gateway of Myriad Realms, his consciousness descended into a Demon Tree offspring that was on the verge of death.
Although he replaced the original Demon Tree offspring, he didn't have the kind of loyalty, mental and ideological imprisonment, to the Demon Ancestor Tree.
Whether it was mental or ideological imprisonment or physical imprisonment, they only existed when the Demon Ancestor Tree was alive.
Once the Demon Ancestor Tree died, both mental and ideological imprisonment and physical imprisonment would disappear.
Countless Demon Trees would have a certain subconscious thought.
That is, to grow to the seventh stage and become the new Demon Ancestor Tree.
This is similar to the queen ant in an ant nest.
If the queen ant dies, it doesn't mean the ant nest will collapse.
Instead, driven by instinct, a new queen ant is born.
Now Lin Yuan faces this problem.
Subconsciously, he felt the dispersed Demon Trees far away.
These Demon Trees were many backhands left by the Demon Ancestor Tree, either to help guard a treasure, or to suppress some secret realm.
And now.
Almost at the same time, these Demon Trees sensed the death of the Demon Ancestor Tree.
"The Ancestor is dead."
"The Ancestor was so powerful, how could he die?"
"The Ancestor is dead, I want to become the new Ancestor!"
Liberated from mental imprisonment, countless Demon Trees harbored ambitions.
Simultaneously freed from physical imprisonment, many innate abilities belonging to the Demon Ancestor Tree also awakened in the Demon Tree offspring.
"All want to become the Ancestor?"
Lin Yuan's expression showed a hint of coldness.
Although he didn't care too much about the Demon Ancestor Tree, after all, he had just killed a true Demon Ancestor Tree.
But Lin Yuan couldn't accept being picked by other Demon Trees.
"Let me become the Demon Ancestor Tree."
Lin Yuan didn't hesitate.
After all, this consciousness transference was a matter of descending, and no matter what he became during the world-hopping, he would return to his original state when he returned to the main world.
Lin Yuan also wanted to experience what it felt like to become an outer-domain evil god.
The growth of the Demon Tree is divided into eight stages.
Although the Demon Ancestor Tree claimed to be in the eighth stage, it hadn't truly crossed into it.
Strictly speaking, the Demon Ancestor Tree is still in the seventh stage.
And under the premise of the complete death of the Demon Ancestor Tree, whichever Demon Tree first grows to the seventh stage can become the new Demon Ancestor Tree.
For the Demon Tree, the seventh stage is a kind of limit.
A Demon Tree at the seventh stage, even if the Demon Ancestor Tree is still alive, can gradually break free from mental imprisonment.
Therefore.
The Demon Ancestor Tree would never allow a Demon Tree to reach the seventh stage.
Moreover, when a Demon Tree at the seventh stage appears, regardless of the distance, the Demon Ancestor Tree can immediately sense it.
Earlier, Lin Yuan had already reached the peak of the sixth stage, and the reason why he hadn't crossed into the seventh stage was that he was afraid of alerting the Demon Ancestor Tree.
But now.
There are no such restrictions.
Thanks to the suppression of the Demon Ancestor Tree.
Currently, except for Lin Yuan, all other Demon Tree offsprings, the highest stage of growth is only the fifth stage.
It is impossible to make a breakthrough to the seventh stage in a short time, even if they have 'unlocked' many innate abilities of the Demon Ancestor Tree.
So Lin Yuan felt no pressure.
After a little preparation.
Lin Yuan began to break through the seventh stage.
Actually, for a Demon Tree at the peak of the sixth stage, there are risks in attempting to reach the seventh stage.
Each stage of the Demon Tree is a significant transformation.
But for Lin Yuan, the risk was almost zero after devouring a large amount of essence from the previous Demon Ancestor Tree.
Coupled with his extraordinary insight, if Lin Yuan couldn't break through to the seventh stage, he might as well end the world-hopping early and return to the main world.
Boom, rumble, rumble.
Ten days later.
Lin Yuan grew into a Demon Tree at the seventh stage.
At the moment Lin Yuan entered this stage.
A strange feeling came.
Originally, Lin Yuan couldn't perceive the existence of other Demon Trees.
However, the death of the Demon Ancestor Tree allowed Lin Yuan to slightly sense many distant Demon Trees.
But it was only a slight perception, still in the context of 'competition' with each other.
Similarly, other Demon Trees could also sense Lin Yuan's presence.
Before the birth of a new Demon Ancestor Tree, all Demon Trees had an 'equal' status.
But now, this 'slight perception,' after growing to the seventh stage, turned into complete control.
Lin Yuan could forcibly contact all Demon Trees through a certain subconscious 'authority.'
Regardless of whether the other party wanted it or not.
And Lin Yuan could control the life and death of any Demon Tree.
In simple terms.
Lin Yuan is now the Demon Ancestor Tree.
Just as Lin Yuan ascended to the seventh stage, becoming the new Demon Ancestor Tree.
All Demon Trees received this information, and at the same time, new mental and ideological imprisonments were reshaped.
From then on, these Demon Trees treated Lin Yuan with absolute loyalty, and the ambitions and fantasies born not long ago due to the death of the previous Demon Ancestor Tree disappeared completely.
This is the Demon Tree community.
As long as the Demon Ancestor Tree is alive, the entire community only has the will of the Demon Ancestor Tree.
"Have seen the Ancestor."
"Have seen the Ancestor."
"Have seen the Ancestor."
Due to Lin Yuan having just become the Demon Ancestor Tree, many 'authorities' have not been acquired yet, so many Demon Trees still retain the ability to actively contact the Ancestor.
And now, without exception, these Demon Trees all offer their congratulations, without any other thoughts.
"Okay, I got it."
Lin Yuan casually replied a few words.
Compared to the previous Demon Ancestor Tree's cruelty, Lin Yuan considers himself quite amiable.
"From now on, bring all the treasures and come towards my direction."
Lin Yuan issued orders to all Demon Trees.
Why did the previous Demon Ancestor Tree leave offspring in many areas?
It's simply because it discovered certain treasures, some exotic and spiritual items from beyond the domain, unable to be harvested in the short term, or still incubating, so it let the offspring Demon Trees guard them first.
Wait until they mature, then come and harvest.
And now.
These precious treasures are all Lin Yuan's.
The Demon Ancestor Tree has left him a substantial inheritance.
"Yes."
"Ancestor, I'm coming over now."
"Ancestor, with my current position, it will take three hundred and twenty years to reach you."
Many Demon Trees began to report their situations. For ordinary life forms to cross the domain beyond, the biggest problem is 'endurance,' that is, how to survive.
The outer domain's void lacks various gentle energies found in the inner world. It is not easy to survive in such harsh conditions.
However, Demon Trees have the ability of 'Void Roots.' Lin Yuan just needs to open this ability to all offspring Demon Trees.
After roughly dealing with the issues of many Demon Trees.
Lin Yuan's mind returned to himself once again.
"Demon Ancestor Tree, the outer domain's evil god. A very special feeling?"
Lin Yuan's branches swayed. Entering the seventh stage and becoming the new Demon Ancestor Tree, Lin Yuan's body had already expanded to a size of ten thousand meters.
Even the entire Black Mist Mountain Range could be overlooked at a glance.
Moreover, with the passage of time, Lin Yuan's body was still rapidly growing, and it could be foreseen that it would grow to the colossal height of the previous Demon Ancestor Tree that spanned the outer domain.
Lin Yuan accepted this without objection, without suppressing or hiding.
Because now Lin Yuan doesn't need to hide; the entire Cyan World is in his control.
What needs to be hidden? "The origin of the Cyan World."
Lin Yuan looked towards the earth, and the unique perception belonging to the Demon Ancestor Tree allowed him to sense the vast fluctuations of the world's origin.
Lin Yuan not only could perceive the fluctuations of the world's origin, but he also had the ability to merge into the vast ocean of the world's origin.
At that time, the entire origin of the Tianqing world would become Lin Yuan's feast, ready for consumption.
This was a unique ability of the Demon Ancestor Tree, completely different from other methods like the 'Root of the Void,' and only the Demon Ancestor Tree itself could master it.
It was the 'unique' ability within the entire Demon Tree tribe.
"No wonder the Demon Ancestor Tree is so eager to enter the interior of the Tianqing world, without worrying about being besieged by other strong beings."
Lin Yuan pondered with a thoughtful expression.
Theoretically, the Lord of the Tianqing Alliance, wielding the World Sword, could exert power surpassing the outside world within the world.
When the Demon Ancestor Tree descended into the Tianqing world, it could easily be caught, like catching a turtle in a jar, or closing the door on a dog.
However, the Demon Ancestor Tree still desired to do so, relying on the ability to merge into the vast ocean of the world's origin.
The ocean of the Tianqing world's origin, even the Lord of the Tianqing Alliance, could not enter.
If the Demon Ancestor Tree entered, it would be equivalent to standing in an invincible position and freely devouring the world's origin, quickly becoming stronger.
As for the many consequences of devouring the world's origin, such as the decline or even destruction of the Tianqing world, it was not something the Demon Ancestor Tree needed to care about.
"Now, as long as I'm willing, I can also merge into the world's origin and easily devour the entire Tianqing world's origin."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Even at this moment, the instinct from the Demon Ancestor Tree was urging Lin Yuan to do so.
"Unfortunately, I am not the Demon Ancestor Tree."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
For Lin Yuan, he was just a transient visitor in this world. When his residence limit was reached, he would leave without taking anything.
Devouring the entire origin of the Tianqing world could indeed enhance the foundation of the Demon Ancestor Tree and push it towards the eighth stage.
But what did that have to do with Lin Yuan?
Unless Lin Yuan was willing to pay a huge price to bring the Demon Ancestor Tree back to the main world, the strength of the Demon Ancestor Tree, no matter how strong, would have no impact.
In Lin Yuan's mind, maintaining the stability of the Tianqing world and enabling it to carry the spread of the path of martial arts evolution was the choice that maximized his interests.
At least, it could provide assistance for Lin Yuan's future 'ultimate leap.'
"Even if I devour the entire origin of the Tianqing world, the Demon Ancestor Tree still cannot reach the eighth stage. The eighth stage is the end of the road in the legendary cultivation system of the Demon Tree tribe."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. The cultivation system of the Demon Ancestor Tree relied on tapping into its own potential.
Even if it truly entered the eighth stage, it would not provide a 'broad perspective' assistance to Lin Yuan.
So.
From beginning to end, Lin Yuan never thought of devouring the origin of the Tianqing world because, for him, it was harmful and had no benefits.
"Let's continue to cultivate."
After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan continued his enlightenment.
After becoming the Demon Ancestor Tree, Lin Yuan gained many methods unique to the Demon Ancestor Tree, all of which could be considered for integration into the path of martial arts evolution.
This would make the path of martial arts evolution more perfect, adaptable to more harsh environments.
And so.
Time passed swiftly.
In the blink of an eye, it was three hundred years later.

Chapter 212: Three Hundred Years Later! Demon Ancestor Tree? No, that is the World Tree sheltering all living beings (Subscribe Request)
Three hundred years, in the context of the world, is not a very long time.
However, for the creatures within the world, it can be considered quite lengthy.
Especially for those ordinary humans, three hundred years might have passed through several generations.
In these three hundred years, the Tianqing world has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Firstly, there was the popularization of the martial arts cultivation path. The original cultivation system of the Tianqing world had a high threshold, and major forces had a subtle practice of monopolizing it together.
This led to the lower-level beings in the Tianqing world being cut off from the path of ascension, never reaching the upper-level routes throughout their lives.
But three or four hundred years ago, the martial arts cultivation system began to spread.
Compared to the original world's cultivation system, the martial arts cultivation system had an incredibly low entry barrier.
As long as one was an individual, they had the qualifications to cultivate martial arts.
Of course, the specific level of cultivation depended on the individual.
But at least, it gave ordinary people an opportunity.
Secondly, the most significant change in the Tianqing world over the three hundred years.
That was the ancient tree that had grown to an indescribable height, resembling a pillar that touched the sky.
This ancient tree was the sacred tree of the Tianqing world. Every year, the various strong beings of the Tianqing world would personally come to worship under the ancient tree.
As for other creatures in the Tianqing world, theoretically, they were not allowed to stay within tens of thousands of miles of such a sacred tree.
However, the sacred tree was merciful and didn't mind the presence of insignificant beings approaching it.
And just a few thousand miles away from the sacred tree.
There was a group of people who came here to observe the sacred tree from a distance.
Even though anything should become incredibly tiny at a distance of a few thousand miles, this group of people still felt that the sacred tree was towering and majestic, making it impossible to look directly at.
"This is the sacred tree. The reason why my Tianqing world was able to end the devastating war hundreds of years ago is due to the mighty power of the sacred tree."
The middle-aged man leading the group, presumably the 'master,' introduced to more than ten young people behind him.
"I've heard about it too."
"The sacred tree is truly magnificent."
The other youths nodded successively, their expressions filled with admiration.
"But."
Just at this moment, a hesitant-looking youth gathered the courage to speak, "I heard some people say that the sacred tree has a great relationship with the initiator of the war hundreds of years ago—the Demon Ancestor Tree."
After saying this, the youth cautiously glanced at his master.
In fact, such rumors were not uncommon in the Tianqing world.
Three hundred years were not enough to conceal everything. Many cultivators from the Tianqing world rushed to the battlefield during the invasion of the extraterritorial evil gods. Many of them are still alive, and they remember the image of the previous Demon Ancestor Tree. The current sacred tree worshipped by living beings bears some resemblance.
"Demon Ancestor Tree? Nonsense!"
The middle-aged man's tone was angry. He had also heard such talk, but he dismissed it with a sneer.
"I ask you all, what was the purpose when the extraterritorial evil gods wanted to invade my Tianqing world?"
The middle-aged man looked at the other youths and asked in a deep voice.
"That extraterrestrial evil god wanted to destroy our world."
"Yes, the extraterrestrial evil god is despicable. It wanted to devour everything, including us."
"We're fortunate to have defeated the extraterrestrial evil god; otherwise, we would have been in a miserable state."
This time, all the youths' responses were surprisingly unanimous.
"If that's the case, if the World Tree is truly related to the extraterrestrial evil god, should we just stand here?"
The middle-aged man exclaimed, "I don't care how some people tarnish the World Tree, but at least you must have your own judgment."
"If it weren't for the World Tree, would the higher-ups open up resources for us?"
"If it weren't for the World Tree, there wouldn't be the spread of the martial arts cultivation system. How many of you would have the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation?"
"If it weren't for the World Tree, would the Tianqing world have been so peaceful and stable for these hundreds of years? Without a hint of turmoil?"
The more the middle-aged man spoke passionately, the more he emphasized. Many of his elders had lived through the chaotic era hundreds of years ago. When he was young, he heard elders chatting, knowing that the Tianqing world was very chaotic before the extraterrestrial evil god's battlefield, with major forces constantly at war.
The Tianqing Gate, high above, overlooked the lives of the people, capable of resolving the chaos but unwilling to act, using the pretext of 'governing without interference'?
The middle-aged man's words left the youths in contemplation.
Indeed.
These words make sense.
If the World Tree is truly related to the Demon Ancestor Tree.
Then now, the entire Tianqing world, if not destroyed by the World Tree, should at least be enslaved. Do youths like them still have the qualification to come here and observe the true form of the World Tree?
This is entirely contrary to the description of the Demon Ancestor Tree.
Although the youths are not very old, they understand that the martial arts cultivation system they practice comes from the World Tree.
The higher-ups spread martial arts under the command of the World Tree.
Therefore, they have the qualifications to cultivate martial arts.
In the present Tianqing world, under the will of the World Tree, everything is thriving. Even the most ordinary people have the ability to survive.
Living beings also have the possibility of pursuing a better life.
How could such a World Tree be related to the fierce and brutal Demon Ancestor Tree?
"I don't care about those people, why they desperately question the World Tree, and what benefits they get from doing so."
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and continued, "But to label the World Tree as the Demon Ancestor Tree is ridiculous."
"How could the World Tree be the Demon Ancestor Tree? It is the World Tree that shelters all of us."
The middle-aged man once again looked at the distant World Tree, with a look of admiration in his eyes.
"Yes."
"Damn it, the enemy is actually hidden among us."
"From now on, whoever dares to slander the World Tree will be against me."
The youths spoke one after another. They were unaware of the extraterrestrial evil god invasion battle hundreds of years ago.
But they could feel the good life they were living now, and all of it came from the World Tree.
It's a simple principle: what you do is more important than what you say.
The prosperous Tianqing world is rapidly debunking the rumors and doubts about the World Tree.
At the top of the World Tree.
Here, close to the natural barrier of the Tianqing world, going a bit further up may lead to leaving the scope of the Tianqing world.
At this moment, on the main trunk of the World Tree, a figure sat cross-legged.
"Three hundred years."
This figure is Lin Yuan.
More accurately, it belongs to the 'incarnation' derived from the demonic seed of the Ancestral Demon Tree.
After becoming the Ancestral Demon Tree, Lin Yuan gained all the abilities of the Ancestral Demon Tree, including the ability to transform into a demonic form.
Although Lin Yuan has become the demonic tree during this traversal, fundamentally, he is still human. Therefore, he directly activates the demonic form, taking on a human appearance, in which he resides.
"Unfortunately, most of the talents of the Ancestral Demon Tree are bestowed upon the tree itself."
"Even if completely understood, they cannot be used in the main world."
Lin Yuan sighed.
For example, the demonic seed requires seeds formed by the demonic tree. When Lin Yuan returns to the main world, reverting to a human form, he cannot condense the demonic seed and cannot perform techniques like 'parasitism.'
Unless Lin Yuan is willing to give up his human form and completely transform into the Ancestral Demon Tree, only then is it possible to inherit everything.
With Lin Yuan's current understanding of the Ancestral Demon Tree, he could create a technique for the transformation of life essence through extraordinary comprehension, enabling him to transform into the Ancestral Demon Tree.
Returning to the main world, using this transformative technique, he could transform into the Ancestral Demon Tree.
According to the definition of the human alliance, one's humanity is not determined by the physical body but by the soul.
As long as Lin Yuan's soul remains unchanged, even if he becomes the Ancestral Demon Tree, he still belongs to the human race.
However, the cost is too high. Firstly, as a member of the demonic race, the Ancestral Demon Tree cannot cultivate martial arts.
This renders the efforts Lin Yuan made during the six traversals useless.
Secondly, the Ancestral Demon Tree is a colossal existence that requires the power of an entire world to resist in the Tianqing world. Still, in the main world, it is not as insurmountable.
However, peak bloodline life forms like the Starry Sea Wandering Kun and other powerful special life forms are stronger than the Ancestral Demon Tree.
Many abilities of the Ancestral Demon Tree, such as the most significant achievement, the 'parasitism' technique, might be insurmountable in the Tianqing world, but in the main world, they are not terrifying.
The so-called parasitism affects the will and true spirits. Just by observing the daily behaviors of the three goddesses, one can analyze anomalies.
"However, if I really want to continue using the abilities of the Ancestral Demon Tree, there is a way."
Lin Yuan rubbed his chin, silently thinking.
The simplest method is to use some inter-realm force to bring a seed of the Ancestral Demon Tree back to the main world.
Then, Lin Yuan can cultivate it. When it grows a bit, he can control it through various means.
For the human civilization of the main world, the Ancestral Demon Tree would at most be considered a rare special life form.
Most advanced evolutionists of human civilization control some special life forms, and Lin Yuan wants to control the demonic tree, which is quite simple.
Even Lin Yuan could eventually transform the Ancestral Demon Tree into his 'incarnation' for better control.
"Bringing the entire Ancestral Demon Tree back would consume a tremendous amount of inter-realm force; it's probably inconceivable."
"But just bringing back a seed would cost at least ten strands of inter-realm force."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
The Gateway of Myriad Realms has the function of bringing items back to the main world during world traversal, at the cost of inter-realm force.
The amount of inter-realm force required depends on the size and level of the items brought back.
How much would it cost to bring back a demonic tree seed, only the size of a fist?
For three hundred years, Lin Yuan enjoyed the resources of the entire Tianqing world alone, and the harvest was extremely astonishing.
Firstly, there is the nourishment of the origin essence metal.
This piece, originating from the main world, is so cherished that even the invincible eighth-order Red Kun Star Lord risked his life against several powerful extraterrestrial beings of the same level. This cosmic treasure even attracted the attention of ninth-order extraterrestrial creatures.
After Lin Yuan dealt with the Ancestral Demon Tree, he expended a strand of inter-realm force to bring it from the main world to this realm.
The reason for doing this is naturally to nurture the origin essence metal.
Of course, Lin Yuan is not relying on his own body for nurturing.
The power of the Ancestral Demon Tree tends toward evil chaos. If it were to nurture the origin essence metal, not only would it waste time and energy, but it might also influence the formation of the origin essence metal.
Lin Yuan's place for nurturing the origin essence metal is within the source ocean of the Tianqing world.
A world's source ocean is incredibly pure and clean, making it the best place to nurture the origin essence metal.
Weapons like the World Sword are nurtured within the source ocean of a world.
Lin Yuan places the origin essence metal in the Tianqing world's source ocean, which indeed has an impact on the Tianqing world.
However, the impact is not significant, and Lin Yuan is only nurturing it for a few hundred years. After Lin Yuan returns, the Tianqing world will have plenty of time to recover.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan looked down and faintly saw a massive source ocean with a piece of metal floating within it. Looking from a distance, the shape of this metal seemed to resemble a 'bell'?
"The world's source ocean has no life imprint, so it can substitute for me in nurturing the origin essence metal."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
In theory, the origin essence metal's nurturing could only be done by oneself.
Because if you use the power of others to nurture it, it will be contaminated with their life imprint, and it will be unclear to whom the origin essence metal belongs.
However, the world's source ocean does not have this risk. The world consciousness is similar to instinct and does not have a so-called life imprint.
"Martial Arts Evolution System."
Lin Yuan's thoughts turned. Over the three hundred years, Lin Yuan has thoroughly opened and perfected the seventh-order chapter of martial arts, and is even considering the path of the eighth-order chapter.
"Although I haven't cultivated the Martial Arts Evolution System, during the process of opening the seventh-order chapter, my realm has also improved. Now I've reached the seventh-order limit. Once I return to the main world and consume the Crimson Spirit Liquid, I can quickly reach the peak of the seventh-order king level."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Without the corresponding realm, Lin Yuan wouldn't have the ability to open a complete seventh-order chapter. Throughout history, it's been heard that evolutionists have broad visions, opening low-level evolution paths, but it has never been heard that low-level evolutionists have opened high-level evolution paths. Because without reaching that realm, you simply can't sense the essence of cultivation, let alone open it.
"The 1,133rd core spatial model."
In Lin Yuan's eyes, there was a faint shimmer of a silver ocean. Over the three hundred years, Lin Yuan has understood 1,133 core spatial models.
These are core spatial models that explain the essence of certain aspects of spatial rules. Even the Red Kun Star Lord, with the added insight of the main body Starry Sea Wandering Kun into spatial rules, has yet to understand all the core spatial models.
Lin Yuan, at the seventh-order level, comprehending over a thousand core spatial models, is simply a monstrous genius.
"I wonder how much these comprehend spatial models can expand the size of the inner world."
Lin Yuan looked somewhat expectant.
The size of the inner world, besides needing a powerful physical body to bear it, mainly depends on one's understanding of spatial rules. The deeper the understanding of spatial rules, the larger the inner world, and the more world power can be mobilized.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to continue practicing Dao insights.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan looked slightly surprised.
The next moment, several massive consciousnesses.
Suddenly descended from the distant extradimensional void to the outside of the Tianqing world.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 213: Ancestral Demon Tree, Darkening the Sky (Seeking Subscriptions)
"You came so early?"
Lin Yuan also extended his consciousness, arriving outside the Tianqing world and merging with the incoming consciousness.
Lin Yuan's consciousness projection appeared as a black ancient tree. The other three consciousness projections were a giant snake, a light green lake, and a giant eyeball.
The vast expanse of extradimensional void beyond the Tianqing world is not limited to just the Ancestral Demon Tree as an extraterrestrial evil god.
These three consciousness projections are from three other extraterrestrial evil gods.
Among extraterrestrial evil gods, encounters don't always lead to battles. There is also the possibility of cooperation.
For example, Lin Yuan has been dealing well with these three extraterrestrial evil gods. Occasionally, they exchange information, trade, or communicate.
Over the past three hundred years, in addition to cultivation, Lin Yuan has been trying to befriend those extraterrestrial evil gods.
According to the information Lin Yuan has gathered over the years, there is a 'gathering place' deep in the extradimensional void where many extraterrestrial evil gods reside.
The ruler there is also an extraterrestrial evil god who has supposedly grown to the ninth stage.
The growth of extraterrestrial evil gods occurs in stages. For example, Lin Yuan is currently in the seventh stage, and the previous Ancestral Demon Tree was also technically in the seventh stage.
As for the ninth stage, even with Lin Yuan's extraordinary insight, he cannot obtain any useful information.
According to Lin Yuan's speculation, extraterrestrial evil gods in the ninth stage, even if not comparable to the strongest in the main world, probably don't fall too far behind in terms of strength.
"The gathering place of extraterrestrial evil gods."
Lin Yuan sighed. If possible, he really wanted to visit it. However, from the information obtained from other extraterrestrial evil gods,
From the Tianqing world to that gathering place,
the time spent would be calculated in thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
Of course, for extraterrestrial evil gods with almost endless lifespan,
Thousands or tens of thousands of years are just a few moments of sleep. But in Lin Yuan's view, it's completely unnecessary.
Because the residence time is simply not enough.
"I wonder what the extraterrestrial evil gods in the ninth stage look like? Can they be observed?"
Lin Yuan was curious.
Extraterrestrial evil gods are very special beings, and their stages of growth are completely different from normal cultivation systems.
For example, if Lin Yuan were to grow the Ancestral Demon Tree to the eighth stage, perhaps the meaning of his existence would be 'conceptualized'?
"Demon Brother, we envy you for being able to occupy such a world as a place for cultivation."
While Lin Yuan was contemplating, the projection of the giant snake emitted a mental fluctuation.
The consciousness of the other two extraterrestrial evil gods showed the same expression of desire.
However, they could only envy and desire. With Lin Yuan's Ancestral Demon Tree guarding the Tianqing world, the defense has almost reached its peak.
Even if more than a dozen extraterrestrial evil gods come, they may not be able to break through the world barrier.
Moreover, getting more than a dozen extraterrestrial evil gods to cooperate is harder than reaching the sky.
Most importantly, even if they break through the Tianqing world, a single world is far from enough to satisfy the appetites of more than a dozen extraterrestrial evil gods.
"Alright."
"Enough with the small talk, let's start the trade."
The evil god projection with the giant eyeball emitted a mental fluctuation as a reminder.
Chapter 213: Ancestral Demon Tree, Darkening the Sky (Seeking Subscriptions)
They, the three extraterrestrial evil gods, descended their consciousness here to trade with Lin Yuan.
Most of the time, extraterrestrial evil gods wander in the vast void, occasionally gaining some treasures.
"As per our usual agreement."
"I only need Sinful Water and secrets related to the world consciousness."
Lin Yuan nodded, and with a thought, pure blue demon seeds appeared in front of him.
The demon seeds condensed by the Ancestral Demon Tree, besides serving as a means against enemies, retrieving the life imprints inside is a treasure beneficial to other gods.
Over the years, Lin Yuan has earned quite a fortune with these demon seeds.
Of course, the demon seeds here refer to the ones perfected by Lin Yuan after improving the 'Parasitism' technique.
Every time he condenses one of these demon seeds, Lin Yuan has to invest some time and energy.
However, the demon seeds with their life imprints reclaimed do not occupy Lin Yuan's 'Parasitism' quota.
That's why Lin Yuan engages in such exchanges.
"No problem."
"Here are ten portions of Sinful Water."
The consciousness projection of the lake presented the collected Sinful Water.
Lin Yuan exchanged twenty demon seeds for it.
Sinful Water is a treasure produced in certain secret places in the extradimensional void. It contains endless sins, making it the most suitable supplement for some extraterrestrial evil gods.
After multiple attempts, Lin Yuan found that Sinful Water had a significant beneficial effect on the body of the Ancestral Demon Tree.
Because of this, Lin Yuan actively seeks exchanges for Sinful Water.
Although the strength of the Ancestral Demon Tree in this world has little impact on Lin Yuan's main body in the main world, it is better if he can enhance the Ancestral Demon Tree's inherent strength using the source of the Tianqing world.
"I have two secrets related to the world consciousness. Please take a look, Demon Brother," the giant snake consciousness projection sent a mental fluctuation.
He passed on the beginning of two secrets related to the world consciousness to Lin Yuan.
"Not bad."
"These two secrets have their merits."
Lin Yuan nodded, taking out ten demon seeds to exchange with the other party.
Secrets related to the world consciousness are connected to one of Lin Yuan's schemes or goals.
World consciousness is elusive and, for the creatures within the world, almost unreachable.
But among extraterrestrial evil gods, knowledge about world consciousness is not a secret. Many extraterrestrial evil gods, wanting to invade a world, often face interference from the world consciousness.
In the case of the previous Ancestral Demon Tree attempting to descend into the Tianqing world, the world consciousness resorted to the emergence of the World Sword and the formation of the Tianqing Alliance, concentrating all power to resist the invasion of the Ancestral Demon Tree.
Therefore, for countless millennia, extraterrestrial evil gods have gained deep understanding of world consciousness, even forming various secret techniques specifically targeting world consciousness.
"I've also collected several secrets."
The giant eyeball projection spoke last.
The four extraterrestrial evil gods completed the transaction, and they were all satisfied with the results.
"Demon Brother, you already dominate this world. Why do you need to collect so many secrets related to world consciousness?" The curious snake consciousness projection asked.
The other two evil god consciousness projections also turned their gazes towards Lin Yuan.
Indeed, with the means of extraterrestrial evil gods, as long as they descend into a world, victory is almost guaranteed. Merging into the source of the world, they wouldn't care about the world consciousness.
"I'm just a bit curious," Lin Yuan casually replied with an excuse.
"Curious?" The three evil god consciousness projections exchanged glances. Since Lin Yuan didn't want to elaborate, they didn't press further.
Extraterrestrial evil gods rarely inquire into each other's affairs in detail.
"Oh, by the way."
"Demon Brother, do you have any plans now?" The giant eyeball projection suddenly spoke, "I have a friend who wants to meet you."
"A friend? What's the matter with meeting me?" Lin Yuan frowned.
"It's good news, great news," the giant eyeball projection immediately responded.
Soon after, another consciousness descended.
This consciousness projection, humanoid in appearance, had sixteen arms.
"Demon Brother." The sixteen-armed evil god projection greeted Lin Yuan warmly.
"The strength of this extraterrestrial evil god is quite formidable," Lin Yuan's expression slightly solemn, at least stronger than the other three extraterrestrial evil gods.
Of course, still not a match for Lin Yuan now.
After three hundred years of cultivation, relying on his extraordinary comprehension, Lin Yuan's strength had long surpassed the peak period of the previous Ancestral Demon Tree.
"We found a void secret realm and want to invite Demon Brother to join. Rest assured, Demon Brother will receive twenty percent of the gains from that void secret realm in the end," the sixteen-armed evil god projection said with a smile, "Your strength, Demon Brother, is highly appreciated by me. Conquering that void secret realm shouldn't be too difficult for you."
"Void secret realm," Lin Yuan pondered.
The so-called void secret realm is a random dangerous area born in the boundless extraterrestrial void.
These places might contain treasures, opportunities, and more.
Generally, when extraterrestrial evil gods encounter a void secret realm, they can gain many benefits.
The previous Ancestral Demon Tree encountered many void secret realms. In some cases, when the entrance to a secret realm couldn't be accessed for a short time, it would send out some subsidiary Ancestral Demon Trees to guard nearby.
"Where is this void secret realm?" Lin Yuan asked.
"To fly in this direction would take approximately five hundred years," the sixteen-armed evil god immediately replied.
"I'm not interested," Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. He didn't have any doubts about sharing the gains. As a newcomer, getting twenty percent of the spoils from the secret realm was already excellent.
However, precisely because of this, Lin Yuan felt something was amiss. If that void secret realm was genuinely easy to conquer, why invite him specifically?
Moreover, a five-hundred-year journey was unrealistic for Lin Yuan at the moment. With less than two hundred years remaining in the current world, he didn't need to think about exploring any void secret realm. He could simply stay in the Cyan World.
"Alright."
"When you gather relevant techniques or sin water next time, come find me," Lin Yuan retracted his consciousness, returning to the Cyan World.
Immediately, only the lonely four evil god consciousness projections remained in the void.
"Now what?"
"Continue the invitations?"
"Or give up. Demon Brother seems very vigilant; let's invite other gods."
The four evil god consciousness projections discussed with each other and decided to return the way they came.
In the Cyan World, at the top of the Ancestral Demon Tree.
Lin Yuan gazed into the distance at the departing four evil god consciousness projections.
"It seems like I've been targeted," Lin Yuan pondered. Although he didn't sense any ill will from the sixteen-armed evil god consciousness, the sudden invitation sparked many thoughts in Lin Yuan's mind.
For three hundred years, Lin Yuan had frequently traded with other evil gods. The demonic seeds, serving as "goods," were sought after by many evil gods. Falling into the eyes of certain evil gods was normal.
"Whether or not I'm being watched."
"As long as I stay hidden in the Cyan World, who can harm me?" Lin Yuan shifted his focus to the new techniques he had obtained.
"World consciousness," Lin Yuan repeatedly studied.
The reason Lin Yuan delved into such techniques was to attempt to replace the consciousness of the Cyan World with his own. More accurately, he wanted to use the innate consciousness of the Ancestral Demon Tree to replace the consciousness of the Cyan World.
Logically speaking, this idea was undoubtedly absurd. The world consciousness was vast, and even for extraterrestrial evil gods, it was impossible to directly confront the overwhelming world consciousness.
Let alone replacing it.
The methods extraterrestrial evil gods used to deal with world consciousness were akin to parasites, burrowing into the source of the world and slowly consuming it.
Replacing world consciousness directly was entirely unrealistic.
However, this was under normal circumstances. The consciousness of the Cyan World had already fallen into a deep slumber, and coupled with Lin Yuan's mastery of the World Sword, he could influence the world consciousness to some extent.
If, with his extraordinary comprehension and the many techniques related to world consciousness, he could create a suitable alternative method, it might not be impossible.
The reason Lin Yuan wants to replace the world consciousness of the Cyan World is based on a certain speculation in his mind.
The traversal function of the Gateway of Myriad Realms, at the lowest level of random traversal, requires consuming a strand of Boundary Breaking Source Power each time.
If precise traversal is done using world coordinates, it consumes ten strands of Boundary Breaking Source Power.
Where exactly is this Boundary Breaking Source Power being consumed? When consciousness descends, it seamlessly integrates into the native beings of this world, showing no abnormalities.
During this process, there won't be any resistance or rejection from the world.
But what if this world doesn't have any resistance or rejection towards Lin Yuan's consciousness at all? Would the consumption of Boundary Breaking Source Power significantly decrease?
If that's the case, if Lin Yuan replaces the world consciousness of the Cyan World with the innate consciousness of the Ancestral Demon Tree, and then fully opens up to Lin Yuan's consciousness,
The amount of Boundary Breaking Source Power needed for Lin Yuan to descend into the Cyan World again might be pitifully low.
By then, the entire Cyan World will become Lin Yuan's backyard.
He can descend whenever he wants.
"There are still one hundred and ninety years of residency time."
"During this time, most of my focus will be on creating techniques to replace the world consciousness."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
As for the comprehension of the core models of spatial rules, after understanding over a thousand core spatial models, the difficulty of understanding each subsequent spatial model will increase significantly.
In one hundred and ninety years, he can at most comprehend slightly over one hundred core spatial rule models.
The significance is not too great.
Continuing to develop the subsequent stages of martial arts evolution? Lin Yuan has already successfully opened the seventh-stage chapter of martial arts.
He has yet to step into the eighth stage. If he chooses to open the eighth-stage chapter, it might be somewhat challenging without much benefit.
In this case, it's better to focus all remaining energy on the method of replacing consciousness.
After all, opportunities like this may not come by even after dozens of traversals.
Wanting to make the world consciousness fall into slumber? The difficulty is too high, and not every world possesses a world weapon like the World Sword.
Time passes silently, and without notice, another one hundred and eighty years have elapsed.

Chapter 214: Replace the World's Will with One's Own Heart, Return! (Seeking Subscriptions)
The ancestral demon tree's body became increasingly robust, and the ancient, profound aura rushed towards them. Even if they were far apart, the beings of the Cyan World, as long as they looked up, could see the sacred tree supporting heaven and earth.
At this moment, Lin Yuan's cultivation also reached a critical juncture.
[Your comprehension is heaven-defying, understanding numerous world secrets, and your personal accumulation is gradually deepening.]
Creating a method to replace the world was theoretically an impossible task, equivalent to a mere ant ascending to the sky.
Even with heaven-defying comprehension, such comprehension required a foundation and nourishment. The various secrets related to the world consciousness in this world were the most precious nourishment.
Over the past few hundred years, Lin Yuan, through transactions with other extraterrestrial evil gods, obtained many world consciousness secrets. These secrets provided guidance for his heaven-defying comprehension.
[Your comprehension is heaven-defying, understanding numerous world secrets, creating a method to replace the world consciousness.]
Numerous inspirations erupted in Lin Yuan's mind, and a complete technique took shape.
"Finally succeeded."
Lin Yuan opened his eyes, with a hint of emotion in his expression.
For a full one hundred and eighty years, he focused solely on this matter.
He no longer deduced the path of martial arts evolution, nor did he contemplate the core spatial models. All of this was to comprehend the method of replacing the world consciousness before the residency limit arrived.
In Lin Yuan's plan, even if he couldn't comprehend the method of replacing the world consciousness this time,
When returning to the main world, he would specifically wait for six or seven years, accumulate ten strands of Boundary Breaking Source Power, and descend again into the Cyan World.
After all, having an entire world was too tempting, and being able to descend into the Cyan World at any time, at minimal cost, made it irresistible for Lin Yuan.
You see.
Lin Yuan descended not only into the Cyan World.
It was the boundless extraterrestrial void, including the Cyan World, containing countless extraterrestrial evil gods, and worlds similar to the Cyan World, even terrifying evil gods growing to the ninth stage.
It was the perception of the vast void beyond the Cyan World that made Lin Yuan determined to obtain the Cyan World.
"This technique."
Lin Yuan started paying attention to the just-created method of replacing the world consciousness.
This technique does have the potential to allow the innate consciousness of the ancestral demon tree to replace the world consciousness of the Cyan World.
However, there are many limiting conditions.
For example, the Cyan World's world consciousness must be powerless, that is, it must be in a state of sleep.
Also, one must master the means to influence the world consciousness, which can be achieved with the World Sword.
Many limiting conditions are specifically aimed at the current state of the Cyan World.
From another perspective, the state of the Cyan World is indeed rare. Many conditions have simultaneously appeared, as if they were specifically prepared for Lin Yuan.
"Unfortunately, if this technique is used in the main world, I'm afraid it will be crushed by the vast consciousness of the main world in no time."
Lin Yuan sighed.
If talking about replacing the world consciousness, the best target is naturally the main world.
If Lin Yuan can replace the consciousness of the main world, he will become the undisputed number one powerhouse in the vast universe.
Even invincible powerhouses would be suppressed.
Unfortunately, the prerequisite for casting this secret technique is that the world consciousness must be in a state of sleep.
And to make the consciousness of the main world sleep, Lin Yuan can't think of how to achieve it.
Fighting among powerhouses?
With the means of powerhouses, unleashing their full strength can create permanent spatial rifts spanning millions of trillions of miles.
However, considering the vastness of the main world, even permanent spatial rifts of millions of light-years are insignificant.
"There is still about ten years of residency time."
"Let's start trying to replace the world consciousness."
Lin Yuan did not rest. After creating the secret technique, he immediately began to cast it.
Buzz.
Lin Yuan's consciousness began to ascend, integrating into the source of the Cyan World.
This was the innate ability of the ancestral demon tree, but Lin Yuan's integration was not for devouring the source but to prepare for the upcoming replacement.
"It's so wonderful. Is this the most fundamental area of the world?"
Lin Yuan carefully observed, feeling endless energy fluctuations. Everything happening in the Cyan World was reflected here.
Mastering the source region was equivalent to mastering the entire Cyan World.
"Those extraterrestrial evil gods are really foolish. They all think about devouring such a perfect place rather than comprehending and controlling it."
Lin Yuan thought of the ancestral demon tree's desire for the source of the Cyan World, the desire to devour it completely, and shook his head slightly.
This was the thought of almost all extraterrestrial evil gods.
Devouring.
Devouring.
Devouring.
However, in Lin Yuan's view, it was almost the most foolish approach.
For example, if there was a chip that gathered various high-tech achievements, would you melt it down into iron?
In fact, Lin Yuan overestimated those extraterrestrial evil gods.
Lin Yuan could feel many mysteries from the source region because of his heaven-defying comprehension. However, extraterrestrial evil gods did not have much comprehension; they were more instinctively controlled and would not look as deeply and far as Lin Yuan.
"Let's begin."
Lin Yuan took a deep breath, and his consciousness began to spread and ascend.
In just a few breaths, Lin Yuan's consciousness was dispersed to every corner of the source region.
If the world consciousness were not asleep but awake at this moment, it would easily crush Lin Yuan's consciousness.
No suspense.
The consciousness dispersed into countless subtle parts could not resist the overwhelming crush of the world consciousness.
But the world consciousness was asleep.
This scene did not happen naturally.
Even so, Lin Yuan remained cautious.
Even if the world consciousness was asleep, there was still a risk of assimilation when he dispersed his consciousness like this.
Once assimilated, Lin Yuan would lose himself completely. Although he would still replace the world consciousness in the end, fundamentally, there would be no difference from the consciousness being replaced.
So Lin Yuan was very vigilant.
As soon as a trend of assimilation appeared,
he would not hesitate to end this journey.
At that time, the Gate of the Myriad Realms would operate on its own, absorbing all his consciousness into the gate and sending it back to the main world.
This was Lin Yuan's greatest confidence in daring to try to replace the world consciousness.
He had the Gate of the Myriad Realms, which could prevent the most extreme situations from occurring.
It was nothing more than returning early, a small loss for Lin Yuan.
Time slowly passed.
In the blink of an eye, three years had passed.
During these three years, Lin Yuan's consciousness, guided by the power of the origin, merged into every corner of the Cyan World.
Hum.
At this moment,
subtle changes began to take place in the Cyan World.
This change was extremely subtle, and even the Seventh Stage pinnacle figures like the leader of the Cyan Alliance only sensed a trace of it and were not very certain.
Above the sky, a giant face faintly appeared, it was Lin Yuan's face. His eyes alone were over a million miles large, overlooking every detail in the Cyan World.
"Is this considered a successful replacement?"
Lin Yuan secretly thought, at this moment, with just a thought, he could appear anywhere in the Cyan World.
Even without appearing, he could sense everything happening in the world.
"Am I the Lord of the World?"
Lin Yuan's consciousness returned, back inside the body of the ancestral demon tree.
"In the Cyan World, I am invincible."
Lin Yuan had a contemplative look.
At this moment, he had completely replaced the world consciousness of the Cyan World. The entire Cyan World was like his body, under his complete control.
"This power is too terrifying."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but marvel. The feeling of controlling a world was too shocking. The power of the world could be manipulated at will.
Lin Yuan had a feeling that at this moment, if he faced the invasion of the ancestral demon tree, he would have no pressure at all.
Compared to the original world consciousness, Lin Yuan's biggest difference was having specific thoughts and ideas, capable of making any actions.
It was like herbivores in the natural world facing carnivores. Even if the former surpassed the latter in strength and size, they dared not resist and would face death when chased.
The Cyan World and the extraterrestrial evil gods were equivalent to herbivores and carnivores.
The world consciousness of the Cyan World had only basic instincts. Faced with the invasion of extraterrestrial evil gods, it only knew to unleash all its power, unable to grasp the details.
And Lin Yuan, who replaced the original world consciousness, controlled everything. The extraterrestrial evil gods, as long as they didn't come in dozens or hundreds, could be directly ignored.
"Origin Essence Metal."
Lin Yuan's mind moved slightly, and the Origin Essence Metal appeared in front of him.
After nearly five hundred years of nurturing, the shape of the Origin Essence Metal had completely formed into a 'bell shape,' with many natural patterns engraved on the surface, ancient and vast, showing the traces of the passage of countless years.
"My requirement for nurturing the Origin Essence Metal is defense, absolute defense, not only on the physical level but also on the spiritual and soul levels."
Lin Yuan carefully examined the Origin Essence Metal.
The preciousness of the Origin Essence Metal lay in its potential for growth and its malleability.
The latter, malleability, meant that it could be shaped into almost any weapon. Lin Yuan possessed heaven-defying comprehension.
Given enough time, it could grow to an unimaginable height. Therefore, the shaping of the Origin Essence Metal naturally focused on survival.
"However, nurturing the Origin Essence Metal does consume the essence of the world origin. After five hundred years of nurturing, the world origin has been reduced by at least half to one-tenth."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Don't underestimate a reduction of half to one-tenth. Even with just a small fraction, the volume of the Cyan World here would be enough to bankrupt an eighth-stage evolutionary from the main world.
"But it's worth it."
"Hundreds of years of nurturing have almost shaped the Origin Essence Metal. It should be ready for use upon this return."
Lin Yuan smiled.
With the formidable strength of the Origin Essence Metal, its defense in terms of soul strength was no weaker than an eighth-stage soul defense treasure.
What was most remarkable was that the Origin Essence Metal could stack with other weapon treasures.
In other words, Lin Yuan could simultaneously defend his soul with an eighth-stage soul defense treasure and the Origin Essence Metal.
Under the ancestral demon tree,
the leader of the Cyan Alliance, along with deputy leaders, protectors, and elders, gathered.
"Master."
The leader of the Cyan Alliance respectfully spoke in a low voice to the figure in front.
"Master."
Others did the same.
"Please rise."
Lin Yuan waved his hand. What manifested in front of everyone now was an incarnation condensed from the power of the world.
After replacing the world consciousness and becoming the true master of the Cyan World, Lin Yuan could manipulate the power of the world for his use.
Condensing an incarnation was just a thought.
"Next, I will go into seclusion. The time is uncertain, possibly hundreds of years, possibly thousands of years, perhaps tens of thousands of years."
Lin Yuan said.
In a few years, Lin Yuan would reach the limit of his residence time, and he would return to the main world.
Although Lin Yuan had become the master of the Cyan World, the cost of returning would be much lower, but due to the different flow rates of time between the two worlds,
Lin Yuan's next descent might not happen for hundreds or thousands of years.
"Oh?"
"Master is going into seclusion?"
"Thousands or tens of thousands of years, that's too long."
Many under the Cyan Alliance couldn't help but speak.
"During my seclusion, the rule of the Cyan World will follow the measures and guidelines I left behind."
Lin Yuan spoke.
Those measures and guidelines came from the human civilization in the main world.
As the pinnacle race in the universe, human civilization had a long history and rich experience in ruling life on a planet.
Those measures and guidelines were borrowed by Lin Yuan from the main world.
As long as these measures were implemented, and with the support of powerful force, the Cyan World would enter a long period of prosperity.
This would greatly benefit martial arts as well; the more prosperous and flourishing it was, the higher the quantity and quality of martial practitioners.
"All right."
"Everyone, please withdraw."
Lin Yuan waved his hand.
The leader of the Cyan Alliance and others respectfully withdrew.
In the following years,
Lin Yuan decided to give up cultivation altogether.
Instead, he utilized the power of the world master to traverse every corner of the Cyan World.
"The operation of the world revolves around life."
Lin Yuan stood on a high mountain, below which was a village with rising smoke.
Without life, even with many comprehensive rules, something essential was missing.
"Rules of life."
There was a hint of green flowing in Lin Yuan's eyes.
Like spatial rules, the rules of life were also fundamental rules, crucial to the evolution of the world—
How life is born.
[Your extraordinary comprehension deepens as you observe the proliferation of life and understand the rules of life.]
"I never expected that in the last few years, I would actually gain a basic understanding of the rules of life."
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.
The rules of life and spatial rules were on the same level. It took considerable effort for Lin Yuan to gain a basic understanding of spatial rules initially.
However, now, understanding the rules of life seemed surprisingly easier.
This was partly due to Lin Yuan's current elevated state compared to when he comprehended spatial rules in the past. Also, as the master of the world, he could perceive the nuances of life more delicately.
"The time has come."
Lin Yuan's consciousness gathered in his mind, and he saw the door to the myriad realms suddenly radiate light.
"Many preparations and arrangements have already been made."
Lin Yuan looked towards the direction of the ancestral demon tree.
At this point, he had replaced the instinctual consciousness of the ancestral demon tree with his own consciousness. Even if he left this realm, this world remained under his control.
Lin Yuan had deeply imprinted his own life mark on it. The next time he descended, he could instantly take ownership of the world.
"Let's go back."
Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze, and his figure quickly dissipated.
His consciousness transformed into a point of light and entered the door to the myriad realms.
