The Tongtian Bridge About to Shake the Heavens

The universe and starry sky are vast and boundless.

In this starry sky, there floats an incredibly vast continent. The surface of the continent is covered with endless yellow sand that dances wildly, seemingly just a desert. But this is the most dangerous cultivation world for the human race.

The Purgatory Abyss!

Besides this Starry Sky Continent, there is also a Floating City, shrouded in a faint energy shield, where magnificent palaces are built.

The central temple is the most majestic, hundreds of thousands of kilometers high, radiating dazzling golden light.

At this moment, on the highest level of the temple.

Bearing Golden Great Axe, the demon-like figure looked down at the four-armed middle-aged man below the hall, his voice booming. "I already know, Feng Chen, you may step down."

"Yes." King Feng Chen bowed respectfully and then left.

The Golden Axe Venerable turned around, gazing at the infinite void outside the temple, his brows furrowed. "What is that little guy doing... The survival mission in the Purgatory Abyss is only for one year, but fifteen years have passed, why is he still stuck there?"

This is the most dangerous, Desperate Level Mission, "Purgatory Abyss"!

Fifteen years have passed, and Lin Yan still shows no sign of leaving.

Moreover, less than a year after he entered the Purgatory Abyss, he also ventured into the Original Tongtian Mountain... During the execution of the Desperate Level Mission, he had to be extremely vigilant in reality, as this behavior of sending most of his consciousness into the "Virtual Universe Network" was very risky.

The Golden Axe Venerable's eyes, as deep and unfathomable as a demon god, involuntarily brought to mind the scene of their meeting fifteen years ago.

The young man looked determined and said that this would not be his dead end.

Considering his achievements, in a short period of time he has repeatedly surprised people and accomplished one incredible feat after another.

"Such a brilliant and unparalleled figure." He sighed softly. "Lin Yan's connection records on the Virtual Universe System are normal. Such a genius should not have perished here. I just hope... he can return safely."

Three years later.

An endless flame burns eternally.

A figure was visible within the flames, the silhouette indistinct. Lin Yan sat cross-legged in the center of the endless flames, the intense heat rippling across his body, and the surrounding space seemed to be subtly distorted.

Suddenly--

Lin Yan's entire body erupted with scorching flames, and a terrifying aura soared into the sky. His body gradually became covered in black and red light armor, with black flames swirling around the surface of the armor. The powerful energy fluctuations caused the huge fireball to tremble.

Hiss hiss hiss...

The space around the Black Flames was burned and cracked open. In a daze, countless flame trails could be seen to vaguely form the image of an extremely strange monster, which enveloped Lin Yan's body.

This monster image is the same monster image that Lin Yan couldn't sense any mystery from in the seventh to Ninth Diagram of the "Universe Chaos Stele" in Chaos City, which seemed to be just a pure drawing.

At the same moment.

Every cell in his body seemed to be a spring, emitting countless curves that glowed with black light. These curves influenced each other, forming a strange suction force that completely enveloped the huge fireball, which was hundreds of kilometers in diameter.

"Rumble..." Spacetime trembled and distorted.

It was as if the immense gravity was so strong that even space itself could not withstand it.

The dazzling light surged wildly into Lin Yan's body along the countless curves shimmering with black light, making Lin Yan incredibly dazzling, like a sun a million times brighter.

The surging energy it devoured formed a blindingly bright "nebula." What appeared to be a nebula was in fact an incredibly terrifying energy vortex. The tearing force of that vortex emitted a powerful pressure that could purify Annihilation everything.

"Boom!"

Lin Yan suddenly opened his eyes, two beams of divine light shooting out from them, as if two stars were burning deep within his eyes!

"I've finally mastered the first level of the 'Black Hole Force Field'." Lin Yan opened his eyes, looked down at his surroundings, and exuded an overbearing will that could dominate everything.

When the art of "Black Hole Evolution" is mastered to its extreme, Black Hole can be created from a single punch, a knife, a sword, or even a single thought.

The core secret technique, "The Primordial Beginning," is a secret manual for cultivating the transformation into Black Hole. When one cultivates to the sixth level, one can transform into Black Hole, devouring everything and becoming comparable to a true master of the universe.

More terrifying than a real Black Hole! The Universe Venerable is not afraid of some low-level Black Hole, but the Black Hole transformed from the "Primordial Beginning"... the realm it pursues is the strongest Black Hole that is capable of destroying the membrane of the Primordial Universe!

Lin Yan now possesses an extremely unique aura.

Nothingness!

Overbearing!

Mysterious and unfathomable!

"According to the creator's description, the difficulty of entering the first level is more than a hundred times that of comprehending the Law essence, but I... only took seventeen years!" Lin Yan felt a surge of joy.

Such a secret technique that points directly to the pinnacle is difficult even for Universe Venerable to master easily. Lin Yan is only at the Cosmic level, and he has not even mastered the World Power, let alone the Immortal Divine Body. Therefore, the difficulty is even greater.

However, Lin Yan accomplished this feat in just seventeen years. Compared to this, his previous decades of traversing the Original Tongtian Mountain were nothing.

This mainly relies on his Talent Secret Method, not only "devouring" but also "Annihilation," which have provided extremely significant assistance to Lin Yan's cultivation of "The Primordial Beginning."

What is Talent Secret Method?

These are special abilities directly bestowed upon us by the universe. They vary in level, power, and even purpose.

Some of these techniques are so powerful that they can even rival those of a cosmic master, while others cannot be obtained through cultivation at all!

Over the years, Lin Yan has used the Inheritance Secret Technique of the Golden Horn Beast to understand how powerful Golden Horn Beast users applied their Talent Secret Method, and then extracted valuable nourishment from them.

Through his perfectly suited Talent Secret Method, he successfully overcame numerous difficulties. Combined with the insights he gained from thirty years of cultivation in the Black Hole, the difficulty of cultivating the first chapter, "Black Hole Force Field," was greatly reduced.

"Next, my training plan is to integrate my 'Bio-force Field' into it. This will make it easier to control. Combined with my own 'devouring' talent, once this secret technique is fully mastered and perfected, the two will complement each other, and this secret technique will be able to unleash even greater power."

Lin Yan thought to himself, "However... I feel that my cultivation is incomplete, as if something very important is missing."

Although he had mastered the first level of "Black Hole Force Field" during his seventeen years of secluded cultivation, Lin Yan felt that the secret technique itself was not perfect and the power it could display did not meet his previous expectations.

Lin Yan frowned slightly, looking at the black and red light armor covering his body, and pondered, "Could it be because I haven't cultivated the Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body to its highest level yet?"

During his cultivation, Lin Yan clearly sensed a subtle connection between the "Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body" and the "Primordial Beginning," which was mainly manifested in the following ways:

"Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body" transforms body cells into "Micro Star".

"The Primordial Beginning" is centered on itself, thus unleashing Black Hole Force Field.

But... how can a person possess such terrifying density and mass that they can generate such extremely strong gravity?

Lin Yan was initially puzzled, but after years of cultivation, he has vaguely found the answer.

"There is still a crucial process missing before we can get to a true 'Black Hole Force Field'!"

Lin Yan's eyes shone brightly as he said decisively, "The current 'Nine Refinements of Flame Crystal Body' is not enough. The crucial missing step is... the final collapse and compression of body cells from the form of 'Micro Star' to the extreme to form 'Micro Black Hole'!"

"That is the true core essence of 'The Primordial Beginning'."

Thinking of this, he was incredibly excited. What kind of profound and unfathomable realm would this be?

It's truly captivating.

Lin Yan couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, "I'm afraid there won't be a stronger Cosmic level cultivator than me in the long river of history."

What kind of concept is it to have Cosmic level understanding of the essence of time and space?

Even if someone truly exists and possesses Special Encounters to achieve this, who could possibly be Cosmic level expert to successfully cultivate a secret technique like "The Primordial Beginning" to the first level?

Although he is only a little over a hundred years old, which is far too young compared to his long lifespan, he has truly reached the pinnacle of the Cosmic level.

"Use this last chance at the Cosmic level as soon as possible, and then break through to the Domain Lord level!" Lin Yan smiled slightly. "I just wonder what the System Reward for the Domain Lord level will be. It's really something to look forward to."

He took a step forward.

Then they left the giant fireball.

Call!

The giant fireball trembled and transformed back into that dazzling red crystal. Click... it was loaded into the energy groove of the Black Armguards on the left hand. Instantly, the energy flowed smoothly, and the surface of the arm guard closed up.

Wow!

The black and red light armor instantly dissipated.

A dark blue inner armor automatically appeared on Lin Yan's body, while he wore a crystal armor that shimmered with a faint blue light on the outside, exuding a breathtaking aura.

At this moment, they seemed like gods from Earth's mythology.

A transparent crystal ball covered with countless mysterious patterns flew out of Lin Yan's body and then directly entered the body of the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone next to him.

With a flap of its Blade Wings, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone swiftly penetrated the depths of this A World's landmass using the "Divine Speed Storm" technique.

Lin Yan, making all the necessary preparations. Then, gazing into the distance, he said softly, "Prison Realm Mountain... I hope it won't disappoint me."

Brush!

His figure vanished instantly from A World within the World Ring.

Three months later.

World Lord level Prison Race creature with a human-like upper body, four thick hooves for its lower body, and a scaled tail behind it gazed into the distance.

Even though they are separated by tens of millions of kilometers, you can still faintly see that majestic mountain range that looks like a fairyland. The mountain is covered with all kinds of plants, stretching endlessly.

"It's truly surprising. The living conditions in this 'prison' are extremely harsh, yet the Prison Realm Mountain is so beautiful," Lin Yan thought to himself. The mountain scenery was incredibly beautiful, but he also knew that behind this beauty lurked astonishing dangers.

If one were to venture deep into it, even a powerful Immortal God could perish.

"Although it is extremely dangerous, fortunately I have the talent to Talent Clone and the ability to transform into shadows, so I don't need to worry too much."

Lin Yan knew very well that even with his superior Law Comprehension and his successful cultivation of the Black Hole Force Field, he couldn't unleash his full Cosmic level power. Faced with this situation, he still needed to rely on his Talent Secret Method.

He put all his important items into his World Ring, not intending to carry them with him. He put on a fourth-tier Force Battle Suit and black armor made of F-Grade Metal, carrying only items he might need and several Green Line Devouring Worm clone for support.

This way, even if an accident occurs, there will be no loss.

Then he manipulated the World Lord level Prison Race puppet to conceal himself, while he sank into the shadows beneath his feet and quickly headed towards the majestic mountain range.

Lin Yan had already transformed into a shadow, standing at the edge of the mountain range, gazing at the endless, majestic Prison Realm Mountain.

He kept a close eye on the opportunities displayed in the system, and immediately noticed a number of valuable treasures. However, the "Clear Soul Yuan Dew" he wanted was not among them, as its value was far inferior.

"The Prison Realm Mountain stretch for hundreds of billions of kilometers and contain numerous dangerous areas. Given the value of the Clear Soul Yuan Dew, it's unlikely to be found in the outer regions of this mountain range." Lin Yan's heart stirred, and he continued to advance inward.

Because his main objective is to seize the last opportunity, his actions must be extremely efficient.

Keep moving...

As he traversed mountain after mountain, Lin Yan was tempted by many treasures offered by the system, but remembering the "Clear Soul Yuan Dew" he had discovered in Prison Realm Mountain, Lin Yan suppressed his excitement and continued moving forward.

This was an incredibly tedious process that lasted for more than four months.

Lin Yan's system divides a large region into countless ranges, with the Cosmic level being "ten billion kilometers." These divided regions are fixed; as long as one appears in a certain region, one can view all the opportunities and information within that region.

He had just crossed the boundary of the area when a new message appeared in the system.

[Important Opportunity Discovered: Clear Soul Yuan Dew!]

[The Clear Soul Bamboo is a unique plant that lives and never dies. Every ten thousand epochs, it can naturally extract one drop of its essence, "Clear Soul Yuan Dew," which has the miraculous effect of changing the soul. There are currently three drops available.]

[Of considerable value, opportunity level determined: Wild!]

[Should we activate the opportunity?]

[Yes/No] (Number of times the Cosmic level event has been activated: 1/3)

Lin Yan was overjoyed. "There are actually three drops in total. This is an unexpected surprise. The value of three drops of Clear Soul Yuan Dew is close to 100 billion points in the treasure vault!"

This Clear Soul Yuan Dew is effective even for Universe Venerable. Each drop is worth 30 billion points in the treasure vault, and there are as many as three drops here.

Certainly.

Unlike items such as the Divine Envoy Inheritance Crystal, this Clear Soul Yuan Dew is extremely important to Lin Yan. If he obtains it, he will use it for himself and will not sell it.

Without any hesitation, Lin Yan chose to activate this opportunity. Immediately, various information about the "Clear Soul Yuan Dew" appeared in his mind, clearly marked in various locations.

However, instead of going directly there, he chose to hide in a cave on a cliff in a canyon.

Lin Yan no longer needs to stay at the Cosmic level; he can now break through to the domain lord level.

"Wind Queen, we've already connected to the Virtual Universe Network. Let's go all the way with the flamboyance," Lin Yan laughed. "Now, which level of the Tongtian Bridge should I be able to cross?"

He himself was somewhat curious about this.

Now that he has already demonstrated his talent, the Alien Race will likely target him without hesitation. So, he might as well make a bigger splash, show more potential, and gain greater attention from the human race.

"Master, Wind Queen is very much looking forward to it." Wind Queen seemed very happy.

"I'm looking forward to it too," Lin Yan said with a smile.

Immediately, Lin Yan connected a wisp of his consciousness to the Virtual Universe Network.

The Tongtian Bridge Plane.

Guardian Bafen of the beautiful island, had been silently watching over it for countless years. Suddenly, a figure appeared out of nowhere on the island.

"Lin Yan!" The Guardian Bafen, was taken aback, then smiled and walked over, wearing Black Star Robe.

"So you're trying to cross the Tongtian Bridge again? Haha... Crossing the Tongtian Bridge is so easy, I've only ever seen you do it in all these years," the Guardian Bafen chuckled. "Are you going to try the 12th Floor this time?"

Lin Yan smiled slightly, "Maybe more than that."

"Hmm?" The Guardian Bafen, widened his eyes. "Then I'll wait and see."

Lin Yan smiled, then transformed into a stream of light and flew towards the Universe Tongtian Bridge.
