I Wish to Lend You a Hand and Push Open the Gate of Immortality
Interstellar travel is very tedious.
When a spaceship Light Speed Flight, it is impossible to capture the external scenery. Even the mysterious and boundless starry sky in the Primordial Universe, which looks magnificent and beautiful, can become boring and cold after a while.
Certainly.
For Lin Yan, his energy was focused on cultivation, so there was no need for him to care about these things.
Inside the rest cabin.
Lin Yan separated a wisp of his consciousness to cultivate the "Black Hole Sacred Body," taking out some Cosmic Rare Treasure from his Space Ring and devouring them. The essence of those substances surged into his body and was frantically devoured by his cells, causing the density and quality of his cells to continuously increase.
The materials redeemed with 2.13 billion points, even if most of them are very precious treasures, would probably be as large as the moon if all of them were added together.
For the past three years, he has been searching for treasures in the Garbage Star Domain, so his actual cultivation time is not very long, and he is still a long way from completing the first level of cultivation.
Even though the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone has been diligently cultivating, it has only devoured a small portion of it so far.
At the same time.
Lin Yan devoted most of his consciousness to studying the many secret methods recorded in "The Chaos Principle" in order to help him comprehend "The Universe Chaos Stele".
Under normal circumstances, the Fourth Diagram represents the 12th floor of the Tongtian Bridge, the fifth picture the Tongtian Bridge 15th floor, and the sixth picture the Tongtian Bridge 18th Layer.
However, Lin Yan took the route of analyzing the Law essence. After comprehending the Law essence, his level of understanding reached the level of the 12th level of the Tongtian Bridge. He then directly passed the Tongtian Bridge 15th floor by cultivating the first level of "Primordial Beginning" - "Black Hole Force Field".
For him.
Lin Yan has already grasped the Law essence. It's only a matter of time before he can comprehend these three diagrams. Once he has a deeper Law Comprehension, he will need to cultivate the second level of "The Primordial Beginning"—the "Wormhole Effect"!
This second layer of "Wormhole Effect" is a kind of "teleportation" trans-space ability formed by combining "Black Hole Sacred Body" and the Universe Law. It is an extremely powerful and practical ability.
It can pursue or escape, and it can ignore the obstruction of spaceships and buildings.
Take the Emperor Ship as an example.
Lin Yan prepared this safety capsule, which is made of G-class metal. Even if facing Peak Feng Wang expert, it cannot be destroyed, and it weakens the impact of the opponent's attack by 90%.
However, if this Peak Feng Wang expert has mastered teleportation, no matter how strong the spaceship's defenses are, they will be useless in the face of teleportation, and can ignore the obstruction of this metal cabin.
Unless the spaceship can block Space Fluctuation, this situation usually occurs with treasures of the sealing type or Palace-type. Of course, spaceships are not immune to this either.
G-class ship used by Universe Venerable are basically fused with auxiliary Metal Lifeform at the Peak Feng Wang, so they are fully capable of doing this.
Or perhaps it's the "Sacrifice Secret Pattern" of the Yan Ji Tribe, which include the ability to Space Lock.
Lin Yan's current cultivation method is different from before. He has already crossed the threshold of the Space-Time Fusion Law and grasped that trace of the fluctuation of the Universe Rule. Just after crossing the threshold, in terms of power, it is comparable to the third level of the Tongtian Bridge. It is a law with an extremely broad prospect.
Compared to before, this is the most fundamental path of the "Universe Chaos Stele".
By continuing to cultivate the Space-Time Fusion Law and mutually reinforcing the understanding of the Time Law, although it takes more time than simply cultivating both spacetime and time, it will greatly help in Creation Secret Technique in the future.
Ultimately, the Creation Secret Technique is based on one's own Law Comprehension.
The stronger Law Comprehension, the easier it becomes to create even more powerful secret techniques.
The Green Line Devouring Worm Clone cultivates the "Heavenly Demon Illusion" and the "Heavenly Demon Gu." Even though Lin Yan's foundation is extremely solid, these secret techniques are incredibly complex and profound, making them not easy to study.
From the failure to Parasite Immortal Mo Yun Vine, Lin Yan could also understand that his ability in the "Illusionist" school was far too lacking.
Strictly speaking, being an illusionist... is the most suitable path for Earthling.
Because this is closely related to the state of mind and spiritual cultivation.
A strong will and a high level of mental cultivation, for martial artists and Controller, primarily enhance their ability to resist illusions and Soul Attack, without significantly increasing their combat power.
But illusionists are different.
If someone cannot even see their own illusions clearly, the illusions they create will be full of flaws.
Every powerful illusionist is a person with extremely high willpower and mental state, which is why the illusions they create can make people lose their way.
Lin Yan's greatest advantage lies here.
Even without the need for the "Parasitism" talent, this is not something that can be abandoned. Temporary difficulties are only temporary. Once he truly masters the "Heavenly Demon Illusion," it will become his strongest move.
Time flies, and seven months have passed in the blink of an eye on the interstellar journey.
After the Emperor Ship returned to Fengtian Star and rested for a few days at the Lin Manor, Lin Yan led all the Guard Army on their way to their home Milky Way Galaxy!
When Lin Yan was at the Stellar level, he had visited many planets of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, including the Imperial Capital Star... At that time, the Black Dragon Mountain Empire was incredibly powerful and prosperous in his eyes.
Times have changed.
More than a hundred years have passed, and now the most prosperous planets in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain are naturally the "Canglan Star" and "Jiuzhou Star" in the Milky Way Galaxy.
When Lin Yan broke into the top 1000 in the entire universe in the Genius Battle, the Black Dragon Mountain Empire awarded all the star systems of the "Silver Blue Empire," a primitive civilization in the universe, to the Jiuzhou Company. The Silver Blue Empire of the past no longer existed.
Canglan Star is the Imperial Capital Star of the reorganized "Canglan Empire". It has grown from the initial 8 star systems to now, ruling a total of 162 star systems. Most of these were subsequently awarded by the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Its main powers are administration, culture, and education.
Jiuzhou Star is the established business center, the core of Jiuzhou Company's expansion of its offline business empire.
Although the Canglan Empire is nominally a nascent civilization empire in the universe, strictly speaking, it is now the center of many surrounding star systems!
Not only have the five major powers established branches here, but many Cosmic level and domain lord-level powerhouses have also purchased properties here and moved their families here. Even World Master families and Immortal God families have stationed dedicated personnel here.
Firstly, influenced by the emerging virtual game "Kunlun", it has a very large audience, especially in the Ganwu Universe Country and the Mu Xing Universe Country.
In this game, "Canglan Star," as a lost Cosmic civilization in the prosperous Xianxia civilization of "Kunlun Realm," is a central figure in the game's storyline and naturally enjoys immense popularity.
Secondly, this place is said to be the hometown of Lin Yan, the peerless genius who won first place in the entire universe in the Genius Battle.
This even sparked widespread discussion among gamers, who debated whether the Canglan Star Life Planet the Milky Way Galaxy perished at the end of its life cycle or was taken into the divine realm by an Immortal God.
Thirdly, aside from the famous planets of the Ganwu Universe Country, this place has the most prosperous commerce. Whether it is various rare treasures or large-scale trading orders, it is extremely convenient here.
Lin Yan took the initiative to promote this in order to solve the problem of cultivation resources for Earthling.
When Jiuzhou Star became a commercial center, it would be too easy to send resources to Earth without attracting anyone's attention.
Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the control room of the Emperor Ship, Lin Yan and Gate were both standing there.
"Initiating Cosmic Shuttle immediately! Countdown: 5...4...3...2...1!"
The spaceship shuddered slightly.
Soon, through the outdoor simulation, Lin Yan saw a vast starry sky and a colossal object in the distance.
That enormous thing was a planet!
To be precise, it's a planet that looks like it's made of alloy; it's basically a giant Planet Fortress! It's entirely black, with deep passages running through it that lead directly into the planet's interior.
The planet's surface is covered with massive cannons, each powerful enough to blast an E-class spaceship to pieces, as well as other weapons such as magnetic orbital cannons and large Laser Cannon.
The entire planet occasionally emits a ghostly blue light.
Spaceships, one after another, covered the sky like countless locusts. Sometimes large numbers of them flew into the planet's interior through the deep tunnels, and sometimes large numbers of spaceships flew out of those deep tunnels. At a glance, almost all of those spaceships were at least Class C!
The Planet Fortress, however, is a colossal structure that constantly consumes and releases a large number of spaceships.
This is the main base of the Canglan Empire's Interstellar Fleet!
The entire planet was transformed from a very ordinary mineral planet into a Planet Fortress at the cost of astronomical wealth!
"Drop."
"Master, we have received a guidance signal from the Planet Fortress." Wind Queen said on the control panel screen. "The signal has been received and the identity has been confirmed. The Emperor Ship will land directly on Canglan Star."
"Mm." Lin Yan nodded.
As Cosmic civilization, it is natural to need to build its own Interstellar Fleet; otherwise, it would be difficult to carry out various tasks.
The Canglan Empire was actually established by the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, who controlled a Life Puppet. Of course, he didn't put too much effort into it, basically acting as a hands-off manager, with some Cosmic level slaves assisting him. The specific tasks were handled by capable people.
Planet Fortress here also serve as a defensive force.
Whoosh!
The Emperor Ship rapidly flew deeper into space.
A blazing star, around which two seemingly iridescent planets revolve in constant motion.
The two planets seemed to be shrouded in a thin mist; one was faintly pale green, and the other was faintly bluish-green.
Spaceships travel back and forth in the starry sky.
Soon, the Emperor Ship rapidly broke through the atmosphere and continued to penetrate deeper into it.
Moment.
Lin Yan's vision came into view of incredibly majestic ancient cities. On the surface, these ancient cities showed no signs of technology, but were ancient and grand.
"Everyone, get off the spaceship," he suddenly ordered.
Rumble...
One by one, the Guard Army on the Emperor quickly left their rest cabins and flew out of the spaceship's hatch.
With a wave of his hand, Lin Yan caused the Emperor Ship to vanish into thin air.
Immediately, the Guard Army, surrounding Lin Yan, transformed into streaks of dazzling light and steadily approached the ancient city below.
"Your Highness, your home planet looks quite magnificent." Gate looked down at the towering city that was constantly approaching. "I've played the virtual game that Your Highness created, and many places seem familiar."
Lin Yan nodded.
Based on the information on the surface, everyone would naturally assume that this Canglan Star is his home planet, which is something he did intentionally.
The Bomo Star, with its population of 22 billion, was wiped out simply because of the Koser assassination operation, which exposed a Zerg Infiltration Organization.
He cannot afford to be careless.
With the Canglan Star as a cover, and the Virtual Universe Company modifying the planets where the geniuses reside, the risks associated with Alien Race can be minimized.
There is another important reason why he doesn't want to expose Earth now: he hopes that after exposing Earth, he can not only obtain complete ownership of Earth, but also have the human race send Universe Venerable level being to establish a temple in the Solar System to guard it.
In the original story, after the Virtual Universe Company purchased half of Earth's ownership, a Super Existence was stationed in the Solar System. Even when encountering Alien Race enemies, this being could quickly summon a large number of human super-strong individuals through the Divine Kingdom Teleportation.
It's difficult to achieve this perfectly right now.
However, it's uncertain what will happen once we accumulate more resources.
"Let's go into the city," he ordered.
"Yes!"
Led by Lin Yan, the group of over a thousand people descended directly into this ancient city.
Canglan Star, the Ziwei Ancient City, one of the 108 great cities.
This is also the Imperial Capital City of Canglan Star.
Because of Lin Yan, the management here is very strict. Even the royal families from various star regions and powerful figures from some early civilizations must enter through the city gates in a proper manner. Directly flying and landing into the city is absolutely prohibited.
Flying is also prohibited within the city.
"Look!"
"Those people actually flew down."
On a street several hundred meters wide in the Ziwei Ancient City, the residents of Canglan Star, who looked different from each other, looked up in shock at the dark mass of people descending from the sky. The group of people seemed to descend like dark clouds pressing down from above, especially the faint aura of the world they were exuding.
It may be as fiery as fire, as cold as ice, or as steadfast as a mountain...
Canglan Star is still a relatively new planet, and while World Master may occasionally appear, the strongest beings that Canglan Star residents can normally see are Domain Lords!
And now.
Ten World Master experts! And all of them are recognized by the Origin Law? Even if you plunder an entire star field, you might not be able to gather ten World Masters who are recognized by the Origin Law!
"Let's go!" On the street, the bluestone slabs were etched with the marks of time. Walking on them, Lin Yan felt clear-headed and his heart calmed down.
They have returned to the Milky Way Galaxy.
It's really not far from Earth anymore.
At his command, the group of people quickly vanished like phantoms.
"Who are those people?"
"Ten World Master, that's terrifying!"
The pedestrians on the street looked at each other in disbelief, completely stunned. Any World Master could build a powerful family, but now ten World Masters were just followers.
"I'm not seeing things, am I? Those thousand-plus people seem to be at least at the Cosmic level!"
The people on the street were immediately shocked, and soon someone recognized them. "That young man in the crystal armor... is that legendary genius, the master of this planet!"
Everyone knows who made this planet rise to power, and who is the true master of the Canglan Empire.
It is Lin Yan, the most legendary and unparalleled genius of the Ganwu Universe Country!
Lin Yan and his group entered a luxurious manor in the Ziwei Ancient City.
After settling his Guard Army, he planned to cultivate in seclusion here, waiting for his Xue Qiao Clone to be born unless the Virtual Universe Company issued a mission.
After all, apart from Earth, he didn't have anyone else in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain that he cared about.
Of course, it's not that there really aren't any.
In the reception room.
An elderly man with gray hair and a kind appearance stood there.
Beside him stood a man dressed in a deep red battle robe, with a lightning mark between his brows, clearly a powerful World Master recognized by the source of lightning.
"Commander, why would His Highness Lin Yan, who has only been back on Canglan Star for less than half a year, take the initiative to summon you?" The man in the crimson battle robe stood to the side and whispered.
They are none other than the leader of the Four Great Organizations from the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain — Three Axe Mountain.
The white-haired old man is Luo, known as the "Time World Lord," one of the three founders of Three Axe Mountain. Many immortals are on good terms with him and treat him as an equal. Many World Master are willing to listen to his guidance. He is the leading figure in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain.
The man in the deep red battle robe was named General Jiang Tianchen, and among the many World Masters in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain, he was considered one of the top figures.
But they seemed rather reserved standing there now.
"I don't know." Luo was also a little puzzled. He had some interaction with one of Lin Yan's friends, "Hong," but he had only met Lin Yan once.
To be honest, Lin Yan is quite a legend.
Not to mention that he won first place in the Genius Battle, he is now second only to the Qianwu Country Lord of the Ganwu Universe Country.
This was told to him by the Divine Lord of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. A few years ago, that Black Dragon went to Fengtian Star to attend the most prestigious banquet of the Ganwu Universe Country, and he is still proud of it.
Although Luo is World Master, he is indeed a legend in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Even the two Divine Lords of the Black Dragon Mountain Holy Land and the Ice Sea Divine Kingdom Holy Land would give Luo face and have some relationship with him!
This is because Luo's two closest friends are both immortals, and also because Luo is indeed very strong, ranking among the top three, or even first, among the millions of World Master in the Ganwu Universe Country.
If he hadn't been distracted by the Time Origin Law, he would have already become an immortal being.
Luo learned this information from the Black Dragon and naturally understood that his identity was only close to that of Immortal God, while Lin Yan was an existence that even tens of thousands of Immortal God in the Ganwu Universe Country could not reach!
What could he want from me?
At this moment—
A handsome young man clad in shimmering armor walked into the reception room, his clear eyes meeting theirs. Behind him followed a powerful, Immortal God.
"Your His Highness Lin Yan." Luo He bowed to General Jiang Tianchen.
Lin Yan nodded and smiled, "Please sit down."
He took two steps forward and sat in the main seat.
Luo and General Jiang Tianchen also found seats and sat down.
Lin Yan looked at them and said with a smile, "I remember when we met in the Virtual Universe during the Genius Battle, Lord Luo once wanted to take my friend as his disciple. Although Hong refused, Lord Luo still gave him a lot of guidance in cultivation."
At that time, Lin Yan still had to respectfully address the other party as "Lord Military Commander".
Luo shook his head. "It's just a small matter. Hong is very polite and often visits me in the Virtual Universe. He first entered the Ganwu Secret Realm and then entered the Core Layer the Virtual Universe Company. Although he had the help of His Highness Lin Yan, it also shows his talent."
"If he had actually agreed to become my disciple back then, it would have been a waste of his potential."
He was slightly self-deprecating.
He once said that if Hong wanted to become his disciple, he would have to leave the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain with him and wander in the universe for 20,000 years.
Hong did not agree.
Unexpectedly, only two hundred years later, things have turned out like this.
Lin Yan said softly, "I heard that Lord Luo will reach his end in 20,000 years?"
General Jiang Tianchen's expression changed slightly. Luo was the senior who had mentored him back then, and the fact that he only had 20,000 years left to live had always been a bitter pill to swallow for him.
But now Lin Yan said it so casually. Although their statuses were vastly different, it still made him feel a little uncomfortable.
World Master have long lifespans, sometimes reaching tens of millions of years. If not for the cruel twist of fate, this legendary military lord would not have met such an end.
The old man didn't seem to care much, and said with a sigh, "Yes."
"To be honest, my initial ambition was to use the comprehension speed of World Lord level to study the Time Origin Law, hoping to rival the Feng Wang Immortal God who were granted titles at the World Lord level. Once I became an immortal, I could become a super strong among immortals."
"I just overestimated my talent, and I was also unlucky. I guess it's my fate to end up like this."
The young man before me is rumored to have a Cosmic level Law Comprehension of the laws that rivals that of Marquis.
As for myself, I remained at the World Lord level until my lifespan was about to end, but I still couldn't reach that level.
When he changed his mind and no longer harbored great ambitions, wanting to perfect the Light Origin Law and break through to immortality, he encountered a calamity and was trapped for more than 800,000 years, wasting his last and most important time.
It was precisely because death was imminent that he was reluctant to let the secret techniques he had painstakingly created over countless years be lost, and he wanted to find an outstanding disciple, which is why he discovered Hong in the Genius Battle.
They all felt quite sad when the topic was brought up.
But the next moment...
Lin Yan's voice was very soft, yet it resounded like thunder in their ears.
"The cause that Lord Luo did back then will surely bear the consequences of what he did today."
Lin Yan looked at them and slowly said, "I wish to lend Lord Luo a hand and help him open the Gate of Immortality."
