Second Clone, Incubation!

The Mu Xing Country Lord asked with a strange expression, "Are you lying?"

Lin Yan showed no embarrassment at being exposed, and looked at her with a smile, "Was I that obvious?"

The Mu Xing Country Lord shook his head. "You practically have the fabrication written all over your face."

She hesitated for a moment, then said gently, "... Is there something you don't want to say?"

Lin Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and he exhaled. "Let's just consider this a case of a disciple being willful."

"If the clan wants to investigate, it's easy to find out the inside Inside story. I only have some guesses, but... I really don't want to say it out loud."

Yes.

At this moment, Lin Yan was prepared for Earth's secrets to be exposed.

Perhaps they could have kept it a secret for longer, but after weighing the options, Lin Yan still made this choice.

His Life Gene Level might break through the limit of a hundred times before the Lord of the Universe at some point. The "Golden Framework" must never be exposed, because it is a secret method that violates the Universe Rule and causes the Life Level to constantly change. The consequences of exposing it are unpredictable and unbearable for him.

Lin Yan developed this sense of urgency after cultivating the Black Hole Sacred Body and reviving the Light Web Crystal. The longer he delayed, the more difficult it would be for him to continue his Superhuman Bloodline. If he really broke through the hundredfold limit, Lin Yan would never dare to mention it to anyone and could only rely on his own abilities to solve it.

However, whether one can solve the problem on their own is an unknown.

If he can't solve the problem himself, he'll have to give up the idea of continuing the Superhuman Bloodline.

This is extremely regrettable, and even... something Lin Yan absolutely did not want to happen!

From a personal perspective, he once made a promise to the person who had been waiting for him in that sea of roses.

Love should not be betrayed.

From an ethnic perspective—

Throughout the Cosmic Humans races Star Spirit race, the Yan Poluo race, and the Manka Race. These are all bloodlines that allow individuals to become "Domain Lords" upon reaching adulthood. Each of these races represents the pinnacle of Cosmic Humans, producing Universe Venerable and numerous Immortal God.

However, let alone compared to the Strongest Bloodline in the universe like the Golden Horn Beast, it was completely suppressed even compared to the Demon Race Royal Family, not to mention beings like the Zerg Mother Queen.

It's no exaggeration to say that even if the System Reward Lin Yan with Special Lifeform form with thousands of times the Gene Level, it wouldn't have been nearly as important as this Superhuman Bloodline with ten times the Life Gene Level.

After all, for the Lord of the Universe, the Life Gene Level can be improved by treasures, but the Strongest Bloodline in the universe with the ability to reproduce is something that cannot be created except by the Primordial Universe itself.

The offspring born can become "World Master" upon reaching adulthood. For example, the Twelve Peak Bloodlines of the Starry Sky Beasts each have at least one or two universe lords, and the most powerful lineage, the Qiuhe Beast, has a total of three universe lords!

Humans have achieved their current status even without superior genetic talent. If someone possessed such Strongest Bloodline and underwent special training, the implications of that are obvious to everyone.

Because it was so important, Lin Yan didn't want to keep it a secret, but choosing to reveal his lineage meant facing the consequence of Earth's secrets being exposed.

Because once one reaches the level of the Lord of the Universe, one possesses the ability to Reverse Space-Time, and under certain conditions, one can even bring the dead back to life.

Given the importance of the Superhuman Bloodline, the human race's cosmic master will inevitably travel back in time. Other issues are negotiable, and Lin Yan has never done anything shameful. However, the secrets of Earth will definitely not be able to be hidden any longer.

The lie Lin Yan fabricated was not intended for the Lord of the Universe, but rather because he was worried that he, Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God all came from the same native planet, which might cause some kind of King Rank or Venerable to take notice and lose ownership of Earth before he even began to grow.

After all, Lin Yan at that time was just a champion in the Genius Battle. Even if he didn't see through Earth's secrets, he could still steal them.

Even before today, Lin Yan was still waiting for an opportunity, but what the Mu Xing Country Lord said during his visit made him understand his current situation better, and he made this decision after careful consideration.

People in different positions and circumstances will have different thoughts about the same thing.

Lin Yan's previous status was due to his identity as Primal Secret Region Member, but now, among his many accolades, "Primal Secret Region Member" is the least significant.

During this time, Lin Yan was hailed as "the Humanity's Strongest Genius." However, a genius is ultimately just a genius. In the eyes of those super strong individuals, he grew because of their efforts, so their final choice might not take into account Lin Yan's own thoughts.

Even if someone is willing to respect this, the human race has five major powers with different interests, and Lin Yan still has no confidence in retaining complete ownership of Earth.

Things are different now!

Just as the Mu Xing Country Lord said, the top-tier Origin Supreme Treasure, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone and the Clone Talent, plus Lin Yan's extraordinary comprehension... the puzzle piece that is formed is the best "concept".

This "concept" will make them understand that once Lin Yan steps into the realm of the universe master, he may even be able to change the landscape of the Six Great Peak Races.

Generally speaking, the Ultimate Supreme Treasure are the treasures that protect a clan. If a top clan does not have an Ultimate Supreme Treasure, it means that it will be in a very passive position in Clan War, or even... dangerous.

The human race is the pinnacle race that lacks Ultimate Supreme Treasure.

But!

Lin Yan's existence implies another possibility.

It can be said that if he could truly reach the realm of the Lord of the Universe, it would be no less significant to the race than an Ultimate Supreme Treasure.

Since such high hopes are placed on him, it is naturally impossible to completely disregard Lin Yan's thoughts in certain decisions.

The "Superhuman Bloodline" was another important bargaining chip that Lin Yan used.

When the Great Axe Founder discovered that life born on Earth is unconsciously influenced by the Earth during its embryonic development, a certain aspect of its soul undergoes special evolution, making it easier to perceive and improve one's state of mind.

So what is the most reasonable way to use it?

Of course it's... the Superhuman Bloodline genes combined with Earth's superhuman mindset. One has a huge advantage in the early stages, and the other has a huge advantage in the later stages. The combination of the two is perfect.

Given enough time, a large number of strong individuals can be cultivated.

If the Qiuhe Beast can have three universe lords, then the Strongest Bloodline of humans, with its extremely strong mentality and genes, and the special training it receives from a power like the human race, can only become even stronger!

Anyone can figure this out.

It was with this in mind that Lin Yan directly brought up the matter of bloodline. Even if the script wasn't as perfect as he had imagined, Lin Yan could settle for second best and keep complete ownership of Earth within 100,000 epochs.

For the Lord of the Universe, a hundred thousand epochs is only a very short time.

Even the True Yan King and the Black Mist King's exchange of insights on the "Nine Universes Chaos Stele," a single discussion and debate on the laws, could last for 18 epochs, which gives you an idea of how powerful it was.

But for Lin Yan, for Luo Feng, and for Earth, there is enough time for many things to happen.

As for why he didn't say it directly, it's because Lin Yan is, after all, Domain Lord level. No matter how well or reasonably he thinks, the final decision-making power is not in his hands. If the highest level of humanity really conveys an attitude that contradicts his thoughts, he has no right or qualification to refuse.

Lin Yan lied without any attempt to hide it, clearly stating his attitude from the very beginning.

As long as his attitude is worthy of consideration, he can make reasonable demands.

"It is precisely because they trust me that I don't want to let them down."

"We have reached such a critical moment. If, in the end, Earth is left to be at the mercy of countless races from various Universe Country, and Earthling are left to depend on others, then that will be my inescapable responsibility."

Lin Yan thought to himself.

Earth's cultivation civilization has only just begun to sprout, yet the aura emanating from other powerful beings is enough to make people tremble with fear.

Those heroes who once fought against monsters, those who are now waiting for them on Earth, and Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God... these four, as pioneers of Earth's rise, have left Earth and come to the stage of the vast universe.

This is definitely not the result I wanted.

The Mu Xing Country Lord looked at Lin Yan, remained silent for a moment, and then said softly, "If you don't want to talk now, then wait a little longer."

"When you feel you can say it."

Lin Yan looked up, his expression momentarily stunned.

The Mu Xing Country Lord said gently, "Everyone has things they want to hide. The Lord of the Universe can Reverse Space-Time, but a person's past is irreversible. Once something happens, you have to bear the consequences. Lin Yan, since you are worried, you must have your reasons for worrying."

"If there's something you don't want people to know about this, I'll help you keep it a secret."

"I'm willing to believe you're doing the right thing."

"Teacher..." A touch of emotion rose in Lin Yan's heart.

He had never imagined that the Mu Xing Country Lord would react this way. Given her status, she should have been all too aware of the importance of this matter.

But she said she was willing to help me keep it a secret.

Lin Yan asked, "Will this matter affect you, teacher?"

In his view, this behavior could be considered acting on his own initiative and might have negative consequences.

Without a second thought, the Mu Xing Country Lord laughed and said, "No."

"But there's one thing you must tell me."

Lin Yan nodded. "Teacher, please ask."

The Mu Xing Country Lord asked, "Besides you, is there anyone else with this bloodline?"

"No." Lin Yan shook his head. "I fused with the prototype of the Light Web Crystal a long time ago, which elevated my Life Gene Level, causing me to not know how to continue my lineage... Don't laugh."

The more the Mu Xing Country Lord listened, the stranger his expression became, and he almost couldn't hold back.

Regardless, the news Lin Yan brought this time was a huge surprise, something that many powerful figures in the human race had never even dared to imagine. She was in a very good mood.

Seeing her disciple in such a distressed state made her even happier.

She paused for a moment, then her expression returned to normal. "If this is what's bothering you, it's not a big problem. I can help you solve it."

"But you must understand the importance of this matter. Always remember that you are carrying the weight of a different future for humanity, a future that we... have always longed for."

When she spoke, her eyes gained a new sparkle.

Lin Yan nodded. "Teacher, I understand."

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter how well prepared he is, the fact remains that he is only a domain lord. In the original work, Luo Feng had the strength of a universe lord, and even when he wanted to reclaim ownership of Earth, there were people who tried to stop him. If they really put it out in the open for discussion, it's hard to say whether something unexpected might happen.

The Mu Xing Country Lord was willing to help him conceal the truth and solve his problems was naturally the best outcome.

Time will always be on his side.

As time goes on, Lin Yan's status and influence will only increase, and one day, no one will be able to ignore his ideas.

The Mu Xing Country Lord glanced at him and smiled, "Don't overthink it. Almost all the rules of conduct in the universe are based on interests, whether it's individual interests, factional interests, or ethnic interests."

"Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is a basic human instinct. Since you say you are willing to be investigated by the tribe, it means that your personal interests and the interests of the tribe are not in conflict. As for the rest, I don't know what your considerations are, and I can't fathom their thoughts."

"Therefore I believe in my disciple, you will make the best choice."

The Mu Xing Country Lord left the Original Secret Realm.

It was only said that before Lin Yan was sent away, he would be given a way to solve this problem. The Great Wind that Lin Yan had originally imagined did not occur, and his cultivation life remained peaceful.

When everything blossoms and bears fruit, then give that Great Existence who holds the power of the tribe a spectacular feast.

Lin Yan really enjoys the feeling of being trusted.

I'm really looking forward to that day.

"Still not strong enough!" Lin Yan took a deep breath. "When I become a Venerable, I really won't have to worry about these things anymore."

"Damn, it really seems so far away."

"Cultivation!"

He returned to his residence, and the first thing he needed to do was naturally to cultivate the "Black Hole Sacred Body".

Lin Yan has completed the crucial "Black Hole cell" process. Next, the cell needs to engulf a large amount of matter in order to increase the amplitude to 20 times that of the first level!

With a 20-fold amplitude and a 55-fold increase in Life Gene Level, he is already comparable to World Lord peak in terms of physical foundation.

A strong physical foundation allows for the Parasitism of more powerful Auxiliary Life.

The limit of the "Hun An" Energy Lifeform is 160 times the World Lord peak after the Soul Amplitude, which is nothing.

When he Parasitism Immortal level Auxiliary Life, that will be the time when his strength truly transforms. Immortal level Auxiliary Life will no longer need to choose Energy Lifeform forms, since they are all composed of Immortal Divine Power. Naturally, he will choose Plant Lifeform with larger divine bodies.

It can not only Soul Amplitude, but also Divine Body Amplitude.

But...

Then I'll have to spend money to buy the secret method that's suitable for the amplitude of Plant-type Lifeform Divine Body Amplitude. The "Black Hole Sacred Body" is too difficult to cultivate, and it's really expensive!

Virtual Universe, Original Zone.

In the study.

"Wind Queen, first find out how many materials are needed to cultivate the 'Black Hole Sacred Body'. How many points are needed to reach the 20-fold amplitude of the first level?" Lin Yan asked, sitting at his desk.

"Yes, Master." The Wind Queen on his shoulder began to calculate, and the result was obtained in an instant.

"Master, 2.13 billion points are needed!"

Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh, "The material requirements for cultivating the Black Hole Sacred Body are too high. The first level requires 2.13 billion points. I'm really broke now."

He had previously made a large purchase, spending a total of 11.3 billion points. Considering the 18 billion points needed to repair the "Sharp Blade fragment", he only had a little over 200 million points left.

If it weren't for the gains from the Cosmic Secret Realm, he wouldn't be so extravagant now, needing money everywhere.

"Let's buy them first. We can't delay the cultivation of the Black Hole Sacred Body. We can deal with those metal deposits later."

Lin Yan did not hesitate and immediately began exchanging these materials. Moreover, he bought not one set, but two sets, because the Green Line Devouring Worm also needed to cultivate this Amplitude Secret Method.

After all, the second layer of "Primordial Beginning" – the "Wormhole Effect" – can achieve a similar effect to teleportation, and the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, as the most important combat force, naturally needs to be cultivated.

"Exchange successful, totaling 4.26 billion points. The materials will be delivered soon." Wind Queen couldn't help but gasp. "This is only because you have high authority, Master, and you get a discount. If it were to cost money, even 10 billion Hun Yuan Unit wouldn't be enough. It would be enough to bankrupt an ordinary Feng Wang Immortal God."

Lin Yan smiled.

"I hope I can make good use of the opportunities at the Domain Lord level. I guess I'll be leaving the Original Secret Realm soon."

"Well, when I meet the Chaos City Lord, it would be best to get his permission to go to Chaos City now. I need to study the Chaos Stele once, and he shouldn't refuse."

The Original Secret Realm also has a Chaos City Lord's Clone, and there is a second Universe Channel leading to the Initial Universe.

Lin Yan followed the path of analyzing the Law essence, so when he was in Chaos City, he only comprehended the first three diagrams, and only glanced at the later diagrams without seriously studying them.

Prematurely understanding the later diagrams can negatively impact the analysis of the Law essence.

If we rely solely on the "Chaos Principle," the effect will certainly be much less. Lin Yan has cultivated for so long and made amazing progress in his Law Comprehension, so he really needs to study the Chaos Stele again.

Whoosh!

Lin Yan's figure disappeared from the Virtual Universe.

In the crystal nucleus.

Lin Yan appeared in the Void Space, gazing at the enormous Black Hole at the core, which connected to the Sea of Laws, the Universe Origin place.

The endless Origin Power was absorbed and continuously gathered, then devoured by the "Light Web Crystal," nurturing the core of this Origin Supreme Treasure.

A vast aura of Origin Law enveloped the Void Space, subtly altering the Time Flow Rate.

"Whoosh!"

A piece of blood-red, shattered scale armor appeared in Lin Yan's hand, and he made a thought.

"Talent - Clone, be born!"

Rumble...

The entire Void Space trembled instantly, and the blood-red scale armor in Lin Yan's hand seemed to be supported by an invisible force, suspending it high in the Void Space.

He only had three chances in his life. Now, following the "Green Line Devouring Worm Clone," Lin Yan began to use his special talent to create clones.

"Hiss..." It was as if it had vaporized.

The blood-red scales that were suspended high in the air instantly vaporized.

"Whoosh..." To Lin Yan's astonishment, countless energies from the Universe Origin place surged wildly into the sky, quickly enveloping the trace of genetic material left behind after the blood-red scales vaporized.

In just a moment, it transformed into a massive cube formed from countless crystals.

At the core of the cube.

A simple yet perfectly integrated Blood-Red Secret Pattern emerged, exuding a powerful aura.

"Here we go."

Lin Yan knew that the "Blood Hound" clone had begun to develop, which was not surprising, since the "Blood Hound" was only at the 200-fold Gene Level and could not possibly be unable to develop.

"I just don't know how long it will take to successfully conceive," Lin Yan thought to himself.

It took only seven years and two months for the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, but that was because the larval form of the Green Line Devouring Worm only had ten times the Gene Level and was not very large.

The stronger the life that is conceived, the longer the gestation period.

Before long, Lin Yan's consciousness sensed that it would take more than 300 years to develop this second clone.

"300 years?" Lin Yan sighed softly; that really was a long time.

However, it is still within acceptable limits.

But gradually he sensed something was wrong, because his consciousness sensed that at this rate of gestation, it definitely wouldn't take 300 years.

At most, about thirty or forty years.

"Could it be..." Lin Yan looked at the huge Black Hole and the 365 transparent planets that were moving around each other, and his eyes lit up.

The Time Flow Rate has been altered!
