Sixteen Hundred Years!

Virtual Universe, the highest point of Thunder Island.

Deep within that Chaos Qi flow lay a palace, the palace of the Chaos City Lord. A stunningly beautiful figure in a bright purple robe suddenly appeared at the palace entrance, her eyes, seemingly containing the stars and the universe, gazing into the depths of the hall.

"Come in." A voice as calm as the ocean came from deep within the palace.

The Chaos Qi flow within the palace automatically separated, forming a passage. The Mu Xing Country Lord immediately spotted the Chaos City Lord sitting on the throne in the distance, and she entered the palace directly.

The Chaos City Lord's eyes lit up. "Mu Xing, how did Venerable Xinglong feel when he touched the Sacrifice Secret Pattern of the Yan Ji Tribe?"

"The completeness of the inheritance is beyond expectations. Xinglong is already studying its mysteries. However, the Venerable Yingyan of the Yan Ji Tribe was indeed exceptionally talented. The 'Sacrifice Secret Pattern' he created have many incredible aspects. It will probably take a long time to fully master them," said the Mu Xing Country Lord.

"However, Xinglong has been learning from me all along. She is a practitioner of the 'Mother Ancestor Chaos Stele,' so she is adept at complex evolutions. Later, she also achieved great skill in Mechanical creation. These Sacrifice Secret Pattern are no challenge for her."

"Haha..." The Chaos City Lord laughed heartily, "Back then, the Yan Ji Tribe was able to create special Law Weapon like 'Sacrifice Tower' and 'Secret Pattern Weapon' using 'Sacrifice Secret Pattern.' This special crafting technique was incredibly magical, yet elusive. I never imagined that after billions of years, it would reappear among our human race!"

With his laughter, the surrounding Universe Space seemed to be filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"We humans have always been far behind the Mechanical race in terms of mechanics. If it weren't for the Virtual Universe left by the teacher, this gap would be even more obvious."

The Chaos City Lord sighed, "The Mechanical race is Intelligent life form, which gives them an innate advantage in this area. However, with this 'Sacrifice Secret Pattern,' it's a great opportunity to take the lead in many fields."

"However, we need to wait until Xinglong achieves a high level of expertise on this path before we can unleash its true value. Not only her, but we also need to select other suitable candidates to learn from her and mass-produce this Law Weapon," the Mu Xing Country Lord said softly.

"I know that this matter has already begun, but it should mainly be handed over to the Star Spirit race." The Chaos City Lord smiled. "In my opinion, your second disciple may be able to take this opportunity to become another Universe Overlord of humanity."

He was the one who first verified these Sacrifice Secret Pattern, and he could see many extraordinary aspects about them. With Venerable Xinglong's accumulation over the years, there is a great possibility that he can go further.

"I hope so." The Mu Xing Country Lord's eyes brightened slightly, showing a glimmer of hope.

"We have to thank Lin Yan for this," the Chaos City Lord sighed. "Sigh, this kind of fortune is truly astonishing."

He was very happy.

Although it is just the foundation of an ordinary clan, it is related to the inheritance before the Great Destruction Era, so it cannot be discussed lightly.

These Sacrifice Secret Pattern are not very meaningful to individuals, unless they are like Venerable Xinglong, but they are of great significance to the clan!

Even ordinary races like the "Yan Ji Tribe" can create special Law Weapon such as "Sacrifice Tower" and "Secret Pattern Weapon". The equally equal "Golden Horn Clan" can only survive by being vassals of humans. How meager are the resources they can utilize?

One can only imagine the brilliance that would shine in the hands of the elite human race.

Divine Base!

Star Fortress!

This is a complete strategic innovation!

"It's not just about luck. I watched Lin Yan's combat videos in the military system, and he actually... he actually killed another Initial Feng Wang. He was clearly stronger than that Reincarnation Cong-Eyed Snake, yet he seemed even more calm and composed!"

The Chaos City Lord, seated on the throne, nodded slightly. "This is entirely due to his strength, which is truly unbelievable. He doesn't even possess a single precious treasure. He is extremely skilled in both attack and flight, and his understanding of the laws is also remarkable. His only weakness is in defense, but this can be remedied once he achieves the second level of mastery of the Black Hole Sacred Body."

The Chaos City Lord paid close attention to Lin Yan.

The fact that the human race has never produced another person who could achieve such a level of accomplishment during the World Master era gives the Chaos City Lord even more confidence in Lin Yan's future as the Lord of the Universe.

"His cultivation time is still too short." The Mu Xing Country Lord's expression softened, and he said softly, "If he had more years, he would be even more outstanding."

"Haha..." the Chaos City Lord laughed, "His talent has already made the Alien Race extremely wary, and you still think he is not outstanding enough? Now that he has obtained the 'Beast God's Eye', when he fuses with the 10th Time Dragon Jade, his Life Gene Level will inevitably reach the limit of a hundred times."

The Mu Xing Country Lord smiled without saying a word.

It wasn't that she felt Lin Yan wasn't outstanding enough.

Instead, I felt that he still possessed boundless potential.

Outer Domain Battlefield, on the Yan Ji Continent.

Inside a cave in a mountain range, golden branches are as sharp as golden swords, with pagoda-shaped tips. Dazzling golden light flows within the cave, tightly enveloping one of the halls.

This is precisely where Lin Yan cultivates in seclusion.

"With the Konota Tree Spirit and this Mini Detector, I can cultivate here in peace." Lin Yan sat cross-legged in the hall, looking around with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

After obtaining the "Beast God's Eye", he left the Barracks Base and returned to the Yan Ji Continent.

Ever since the Golden Vertical Eye was sealed within his body, it has been continuously overflowing with golden energy, nourishing his body and soul. Lin Yan knew very well that after this golden energy was integrated, allowing him to fuse with the Time Dragon Jade was merely a superficial side effect.

His physical strength and cellular activity have improved, and there are subtle differences in the permeability and etherealness of his psychic powers.

The Innate Beast God is the most wondrous life form born from the Primordial Universe!

However, this transformation takes a long time, and he was not in a hurry to continue fusing with the Time Dragon Jade or to cultivate the "Desireless" secret technique.

"I have been training in the Outer Domain Battlefield for so many years since I broke through to the World Master. Now... it is time to focus on adjusting my condition to the peak."

Lin Yan's gaze narrowed slightly. " At the Life Gene Level, with the help of the Time Dragon Jade, it is no longer so important. In a few hundred years, I should be able to cultivate the second level of the Black Hole Sacred Body to perfection."

"Right now, my Law Comprehension is actually my weakest area."

From the outside perspective, Lin Yan's talent for the laws of nature is undoubtedly unprecedented!

He himself understood that while he was making rapid progress in other areas, his Law Comprehension had now become his weakness.

In terms of the Space Law, he is still only at the Tongtian Bridge.

In terms of the Mu Kong Fusion Law, he has only cultivated to the second level of the Path of the Beast God, which is equivalent to the Tongtian Bridge 18th Floor.

If he could comprehend the third level of "The Primordial Beginning" and the third level of the Path of the Beast God, his strength would definitely reach its peak!

Many thoughts raced through Lin Yan's mind before he finally made a decision!

"Over the years, apart from the occasional hunting trip, I've spent all my time comprehending the laws and researching the 'Great Annihilation Sword.' Once I've improved my Law Comprehension, then I'll think about other things!"

With his current strength, he wouldn't gain much advantage in the Outer Domain Battlefield. Killing a couple Initial Feng Wang wouldn't be very meaningful. Lin Yan that he could survive against Peak Feng Wang or Feng Wang Limit Kings, but if he actively provoked them, these powerful figures might bring many friends, and his ability to withstand risks was still not strong enough.

Improving your own abilities directly is the best option!

Once his Law Comprehension reaches the 20th level of the Tongtian Bridge, his Life Gene Level will likely increase by about a thousand times. If he then obtains the two Supreme Treasure left behind by King Zhenyu, what kind of qualitative change will occur in his strength?

Even King Meng Sui would not be his match!

Lin Yan then stopped thinking about it and devoted himself to cultivation.

Cultivation knows no time...

One year, ten years, one hundred years, one thousand years...

As time went by, Lin Yan's strength continued to improve.

In the blink of an eye.

Lin Yan's seclusion this time actually lasted for 1,600 years.

Virtual Universe, the highest point of Thunder Island.

The Chaos City Lord's palace was still filled with Chaos Qi flow, making it impossible to see more than a hundred meters away with the naked eye.

"Teacher." The Golden Axe Venerable, with six arms and six eyes, still carrying the Giant Axe on his back, bowed respectfully.

"What is it?" A voice came from the depths of the Chaos Qi flow.

Facing the endless Chaos Qi flow ahead, Golden Axe Venerable respectfully said, "My master asked me to guide Luo Feng. During the guidance, I found that Luo Feng's progress was terrifyingly fast. Even if there are many difficulties, he can quickly overcome them in a short time. Now... he is about to master the first level of the Yan Shen Seven Transformations."

"Almost there?" A blurry figure walked out from the Chaos Qi flow.

"Yes," Golden Axe Venerable said respectfully, "It should take at least six months, or at most three years, for you to be able to enter the basics."

The Chaos City Lord smiled and said, "It seems I underestimated him by giving him 3,000 years."

After accepting Luo Feng as a nominal disciple, the Chaos City Lord promised that if Luo Feng could master the first level of the "Yan Shen Seven Transformations" within 3000 years in Chaos City, he would accept him as a personal disciple.

The Yan Shen Seven Transformations was created by "Xerod," the greatest elder in the history of the Golden Horn Clan, and is a top-tier secret manual for cultivating the Path of the Beast God.

"It's not even 800 years yet, Golden Axe, you're going to have another junior brother." The Chaos City Lord's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.

Although Luo Feng's progress in the Space Law Gold Law was very rapid, in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord, it was only so-so.

The Chaos City Lord was very satisfied with the Path of the Beast God.

The Golden Axe Venerable chuckled, "Junior Brother Luo Feng is indeed incredibly talented in the Path of the Beast God. Although he can't be as exaggerated as Lin Yan, his progress is still phenomenal, and he has a very promising future."

The Chaos City Lord nodded slightly.

"You may leave."

"Yes, teacher." Golden Axe Venerable respectfully withdrew.

Watching his figure disappear into the palace, the Chaos City Lord couldn't help but sigh, "Lin Yan, Hong, Luo Feng..."

"This Earth lineage is indeed full of geniuses. We don't know why they are so, and we will have to wait for the Giant Axe to return before we can find out."

At this point, he couldn't help but want to check on Lin Yan's current situation.

"Hmm?" The Chaos City Lord in the main hall was somewhat puzzled. "They actually shut down the Virtual Universe receiver, and there haven't been any combat records in the Outer Domain Battlefield army system for nearly a thousand years?"

However, Lin Yan's Xue Qiao Clone had been cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City, and it was clear that everything was safe and sound.

After thinking for a moment, he inquired with the Mu Xing Country Lord.

"Secluded cultivation?" The Chaos City Lord chuckled upon receiving the result. "That little fellow is only about three thousand years old, yet he's been in seclusion for so long this time?"

Sixteen hundred years.

A hint of expectation flickered in his eyes.

"Once he finishes this period of seclusion, I wonder what level his strength will reach."

The second month after the conversation between Golden Axe Venerable and Chaos City Lord.

Outer Domain Battlefield, on the Yan Ji Continent.

Inside the cave hall in the mountain range.

Lin Yan sat cross-legged in meditation. Suddenly, countless curves shimmering with black light extended outward from his body. The Time Flow Rate changed, and space trembled. The Konota Tree Spirit, who was guarding the cave, noticed the situation immediately.

"The surrounding time flow and space are all affected. Is this due to... Master?" The Konota Tree Spirit was somewhat surprised.

For nearly a thousand years, the master has not stepped out of that hall. Everything has been peaceful. Is the current situation a sign that the master's seclusion is finally coming to an end?

Suddenly--

"Buzz..."

As an invisible wave swept by, the powerful divine body of the Konota Tree Spirit, which had been swaying, suddenly froze, even the light stopped, and everything in the entire area fell into complete stillness!

"Time Stop?" The Konota Tree Spirit understood the moment it was hit. Although its body was affected by "Time Stop", its mind could still think. The surroundings were dark and silent.

Under its conscious control, the body naturally bursts forth with power, yet it feels as if it is bound by invisible ropes.

However, with its powerful divine body as a king among advanced plant life forms, it broke the stillness of time in an instant.

At the same time--

Wow!

Lin Yan slowly opened his eyes. In the depths of his eyes, there was a bottomless abyss that made people's hearts tremble!

"The third level of 'The Primordial Beginning' is finally a step forward." Lin Yan was overjoyed. "It's even more difficult than I imagined."

"I've used up all the opportunities the Chaos City Lord gave me to comprehend the 'Universe Chaos Stele,' and it still took me 1,600 years to finally master the initial third level of 'The Primordial Beginning,'" he said with considerable emotion.

A full sixteen hundred years!

Although he was on the Outer Domain Battlefield, because his Xue Qiao Clone was in Chaos City, it was equivalent to him cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City for 1600 years.

At first, Lin Yan occasionally hunted, but after arriving, he became completely immersed in the place and never stepped out of the hall.

As a result, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone has already mastered the second level of the "Black Hole Sacred Body," while Lin Yan's main body is still short of nearly 20 billion cultivation resources and has not yet achieved complete perfection.

"It doesn't matter if it wasn't perfect. With my current strength, obtaining 20 billion Hun Yuan Unit is too easy," Lin Yan smiled.

Over these 1600 years, he reaped immense rewards.

More than 60 years ago, the Path of the Beast God had already been cultivated to the third level, comparable to the 20th level of the Tongtian Bridge!

It should be noted that before he went into seclusion, he was only comparable to the 18th Floor.

This is partly due to the help of the Beast God Statue and the Beast God Artistic Conception, and secondly because, comparatively speaking, comprehending the "Azure Firmament" secret manual is simpler. Another very important point is that the Green Line Devouring Worm has fused the Wood Beast God's Scale Armor into its body, and it has already shown initial results.

His talent in the Path of the Beast God has seen a significant improvement.

The third level of "The Primordial Beginning" is actually the mastery of the "Black Hole Force Field" of the first level, but it has not yet been truly mastered.

That requires a thorough understanding of "Space Lock", "Space Strangulation" and "Time Stop"!

Over the years, Lin Yan has mainly focused on comprehending "Space Lock" and relied on his own compatibility with the Time Law to barely perform Time Stop. As for "Space Strangulation," this was mainly left for the Green Line Devouring Worm to comprehend. The Green Line Devouring Worm is now able to use it due to its special physique, but Lin Yan is still far from being able to use it.

However, with "Space Lock" and "Time Stop," this unique skill has already achieved initial success, and "Space Strangulation" is just icing on the cake.

This is all thanks to his three avatars, each of whom possesses extraordinary talent in the laws of nature; otherwise, it would have been impossible in just 1600 years.

"The last time I fused the 10th one, it didn't work. This should be enough, right?" Lin Yan muttered, a blood-red Time Dragon Jade appearing in his hand.
