On Purple Thorn Island.

After leaving the Island Lord's Palace, Lin Yan went directly to the location previously indicated by the Ficang Race Venerable. He was quite satisfied with the beautiful scenery of the place, which was nestled between mountains and water, and began to build his residence.

"Rise!"

He pointed to the open space in front of him.

Wow!

A picturesque landscape garden appeared out of nowhere, nestled here. Its scenery is enchanting and refined. Unlike other grand palaces, it possesses a natural beauty reminiscent of the misty rain of Jiangnan, blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

Building a mansion by harnessing the World Power is not a difficult task.

After the mansion was completed... Lin Yan first left the two Soul Servant he brought with him here, namely the King Fushui and the King Fire Fiend, both of whom were Peak Feng Wang Expert were subdued in the Outer Domain Battlefield.

Lin Yan himself was hidden in one of the World Ring of the King Fushui.

"Even in the most extreme case, the Xue Qiao Clone can be reborn and resurrected, then travel back to this Purple Thorn Island via the Divine Kingdom Teleportation," Lin Yan thought to himself.

"Let's go and see the Inheritance Land the Ancestor God Cult is passed down."

Lin Yan turned around and headed back to the palace of the Bauhinia Island Master. There was a huge platform square there, which was a section of a mountain peak that had been completely cut off and exposed.

There are three fountains in the square. The water seems to spring up out of nowhere and gushes endlessly, yet the ground of the square remains completely dry, making it look quite beautiful.

The water curtain on the left is the passage to the Inheritance Land, the water curtain in the middle is the passage to the Treasure Land, and the one on the right naturally leads to the Secret Realm Land.

Wow!

As Lin Yan stepped into the fountain on the left, he immediately felt Space-time Change, and a terrifying pressure enveloped him. The oppressive feeling was even more exaggerated than a neutron star pressing down on him, and it also contained an astonishing soul pressure.

He could feel... the pressure from these divine Soul Mark could cause someone without the strength of King Rank to perish.

"Is this the Inheritance Land?"

Lin Yan looked around and realized that this was no longer within the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, but a strange void where neither divine power World Power could detect it, and the surrounding area was shrouded in black mist.

In the void, a meteorite floats, and perched on it is a powerful being with a wolf's head and a human body, wearing purple armor. He is a member of a major branch of the human race— the Wolf-man Race.

"Greetings, Venerable Jiu Feng." Lin Yan bowed.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would hardly believe it. You, King Xuanyuan, are clearly cultivating the 'Universe Chaos Stele,' yet you have also come to this Ancestor God Cult." Venerable Jiu Feng saw Lin Yan and showed a hint of surprise before standing up and smiling.

Venerable Jiu Feng is one of the Seven Stars Overlord the human race in the Hong Alliance. He has received the complete Divine General inheritance and became Outer Member the Ancestor God Cult as a "Candidate Divine General".

Although he usually cultivates at the Ancestor God Cult, he is no stranger to this most monstrous genius in the history of the human race.

In just a few thousand years, his many heaven-defying deeds have long been famous throughout the universe. As Seven Stars Overlord of the human race, how could Venerable Jiu Feng not understand the weight that this King Xuanyuan represents?

They will most likely be on equal footing with me in the future.

Some time ago, the Chaos City Lord had specifically instructed him in the Virtual Universe that if anything happened to Lin Yan when he came to the Ancestor God Cult, the inheritors of the Hong Alliance should take extra care of him, which shows how much importance they attached to it.

This puzzled Venerable Jiu Feng. Everyone knew that Lin Yan cultivated the "Universe Chaos Stele", so why would he come to the Ancestor God Cult?

"I wonder if the Venerable One has heard of... the secret technique I used to cultivate was the Lord of Star Prison Demon's 'The Primordial Beginning,' which had a profound influence on me. Therefore, I am following in the footsteps of my predecessors to study the Path of the Beast God, hoping to gain more inspiration," Lin Yan said.

"So that's how it is." Venerable Jiu Feng was somewhat relieved. Among the top-tier Universe Overlord of the human race, only the Lord of Star Prison Demon had cultivated the Path of the Beast God and reached an extremely high level, so they were naturally quite familiar with it.

However, the Lord of Star Prison Demon's "The Primordial Beginning" was already extremely difficult, and it was unbelievable that Lin Yan had cultivated to this level in such a short time and had even begun to make connections with other things.

"Since the clan has bestowed upon you the Beast God Inheritance Token, it naturally supports your decision. However, the Path of the Beast God is different from the Path of Space-Time, and it is not easy to study and cultivate. I hope you can distinguish between the gains and losses," said Venerable Jiu Feng.

"Thank you for your guidance, Venerable One," Lin Yan replied respectfully.

Venerable Jiu Feng nodded slightly and continued, "This is the Inheritance Land, which was naturally born in the universe and is extremely mysterious. It is also an absolute stronghold of the Ancestor God Cult."

"Each time the inheritance is passed on, your Law Comprehension will be observed first. The Beast God Inheritance is divided into seven levels. If you have comprehended the first two levels but not the third, then the inheritance at the Inheritance Land will be the third level. If you have comprehended the third level, the inheritance you receive will be the Fourth Layer."

At this point, Venerable Jiu Feng looked at Lin Yan with some curiosity. "King Xuanyuan, what level are you?"

"I've only grasped the first level." As soon as Lin Yan finished speaking, he saw Venerable Jiu Feng cast a strange look at him, making him feel a little embarrassed.

Looking at the entire Purple Thorn Island, this is definitely the worst.

The Beast God Inheritance is divided into seven levels, and as far as Lin Yan knows, the number of first-level inheritors is the smallest on the entire Purple Thorn Island.

How little is it?

0!

It can be said that Lin Yan had no competitors at all when it came to competing for last place.

The main reason for this is that... the natural soul pressure of this Inheritance Land can only be resisted by Feng Wang expert. The Beast God Inheritance Token is extremely rare, and the requirements for any race to obtain it are extremely high.

Even someone like True Yan King, who broke through to the Universe Venerable with the "Invincible Feng Wang" title, finally managed to obtain a Beast God Inheritance Token.

But with Lin Yan, there was no threshold whatsoever.

Before obtaining the Beast God Inheritance Token, he didn't even know what the Time Fusion Law was.

Venerable Jiu Feng was initially surprised, but quickly regained his composure.

"You should accept the inheritance first; all you need to do is enter the surrounding black mist."

After all, Lin Yan mainly cultivates the "Universe Chaos Stele". In just a few thousand years, he has achieved such great success. It is conceivable how much energy he can devote to the Path of the Beast God. Being able to comprehend the first level in itself can show that he has a very high talent in this area.

Otherwise, how could the clan have bestowed this Beast God Inheritance Token?

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Lin Yan had only managed to "comprehend the first level" by cramming on the way here, which took several months and probably made him question his life completely!

"Yes," Lin Yan replied, then chose a direction and flew directly into the black mist.

Moment!

Boom!

An incredible force acted on his entire body. Even though Lin Yan's will was comparable to that of Universe Overlord and his mental resilience far surpassed that of ordinary people, he still could not resist this mysterious force.

His body seemed to be out of control, standing in mid-air, his right hand gently outstretched.

"Swoosh!" A surge of World Power emerged from Lin Yan's fingertips, quickly condensing into Law Secret Patterns.

One after another, Law Secret Patterns emerged, and the entire Fusion Law, starting from the most basic level, was uncontrollably demonstrated by Lin Yan himself, progressing step by step from the foundation and interpreting all his insights.

As time passed, more and more Law Secret Patterns emerged, and strands of Law Secret Patterns intertwined around them, forming a beautiful world of Laws.

Gradually, Lin Yan stopped.

That mysterious force instantly detached from Lin Yan's body. He frowned, clearly remembering the scene where he was manipulated by an invisible force to interpret the mysteries of the Fusion Law.

"This must be what Venerable Jiu Feng meant by 'observing the progress of Law Comprehension with each inheritance.' This mysterious power, which is devoid of any domineering nature and even the thought of resistance, is so similar to the Ancestor Tree clone when it reached Perfect Gene."

"The Ancestor God Cult is indeed intricately connected with the Laws of Cosmic Operation."

He sighed inwardly.

At this moment—

That mysterious power descended once more.

"The second level!" A mighty voice resounded in Lin Yan's mind. It was not in any language, but it seemed to be the most primal sound, allowing him to understand the meaning instantly.

The strange sound kept echoing in his mind, completely immersing him in a peculiar illusion.

In that illusion, the deeper mysteries of the Path of the Beast God were revealed in the most subtle way, as if a super strong person was pouring the mysteries into the mind, tearing apart all the profound things Fusion Law "time and light" and explaining them in detail inch by inch.

With the blessing of the Immortal Primordial Spirit, Lin Yan's various avatars were even more divinely aided.

Lin Yan himself.

Within the Star Seal, streaks of golden light faintly streaked across the sky, and an eye radiating golden light hovered in the air, its terrifying aura spreading in all directions.

The enormous eye had a maximum diameter of nearly a thousand kilometers, and inside it were countless complex Golden Secret Patterns intertwined. These Golden Secret Patterns formed thick, twisted dragon shapes, each entangled with countless tiny runes the size of a needle tip.

From these Golden Secret Patterns, endless golden light emanates, transforming the surroundings into a sacred realm.

Lin Yan sat cross-legged, staring intently at the Law Secret Patterns on the golden giant eye, while a large amount of golden energy fused into every cell deep within his body.

The Time Beast God's Eye is comparable to special Supreme Treasure. Lin Yan had not cultivated the Time Fusion Law before, so he could not use it. He could only use some of the side effects of modifying his body and soul by "Star Seal".

In fact.

After Lin Yan comprehended the first level, he developed some wonderful uses for it, such as Soul Defense and attack capabilities, or it contained some battle images from ancient times. These were secondary to his abilities; the most important thing was that it greatly helped him comprehend the Time Fusion Law.

In this state, he continued to analyze the contents of the second chapter of "Xuan You". He hadn't even tried to comprehend it before, but under the analysis of the Inheritance Land, countless mysteries were revealed.

I don't know how much longer...

This force dissipated.

The surrounding black mist seemed to generate a huge repulsion, causing Lin Yan to fly backwards.

"As expected of the Inheritance Land, it is truly amazing." Lin Yan sighed inwardly. "If I could comprehend other Fusion Law, it would be even better, especially the Mu Kong Fusion Law, which would definitely bring tremendous gains."

On the Path of the Beast God, the one he truly devoted his energy to was the Mu Kong Fusion Law, which had a higher foundation. Although he hadn't fully comprehended the third level, it was still considered a superior level of the third level. As for the "Beast God Artistic Conception" that mutually promoted and enhanced each other, it was even more powerful, surpassing the perfect third level and reaching the threshold of the Fourth Layer.

If it weren't for the advantage of using the Beast God Artistic Conception to drive secret techniques, the close-quarters battle with True Yan King might have been much more brutal.

In fact.

Lin Yan has now fully comprehended the eight fundamental laws. If possible, he could try to comprehend the Eight Fusion Laws in the future, but this is based on the premise that he can fully comprehend them in the Inheritance Land.

The feeling of having all the mysteries revealed is simply wonderful.

Unfortunately... although there is only one Inheritance Land, and all inheritors comprehend their teachings here, the Beast God Inheritance Token is divided into eight types, and it is not just for show.

The only type of Inheritance Token he possesses can be activated.

"King Xuanyuan." Venerable Jiu Feng flew over as soon as he saw that the inheritance had ended.

He smiled and said, "This is your first time receiving the inheritance, so don't be fooled by the illusions. Although the Inheritance Land will allow you to see all the mysteries of each level, it is closely related to your previous cultivation foundation. Without a hard-won process of comprehension, you won't gain anything from the inheritance alone."

Lin Yan nodded.

After the transmission ended, he found that everything he had received was hazy and indistinct. He could only remember a part of the second chapter of the mystery, and had forgotten everything else.

This is the same principle as the Chaos Stele. The "Beast God Inheritance" only enhances the effect of the Chaos Stele by tens of millions of times, but... the most fundamental thing is still the ordinary cultivation insights.

"Let me tell you a little trick. Go back now and carefully contemplate it. Immediately study the Path of the Beast God, and you'll be able to recall more of it," Venerable Jiu Feng said with a smile.

"Thank you Venerable Jiu Feng," Lin Yan said gratefully.

In fact, it wasn't just this little trick; Lin Yan also discovered that, with the blessing of the Immortal Primordial Spirit, many of his memories that he couldn't remember before would reappear.

It's like... the limit of what you can remember and comprehend is much higher!

This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise, meaning that in addition to the transformation in his own cultivation speed, Lin Yan would also save a lot of effort in receiving the inheritance.

"There is one more thing I need to tell you," Venerable Jiu Feng said. "The Beast God Inheritance is divided into seven levels, and each level offers one free opportunity to comprehend it."

"Once you have mastered the first level, you can receive the second level for free. Once you have fully mastered the second level, you can receive the third level for free... and so on."

"This is a one-time free opportunity. If you want to receive additional inheritance on top of the free one, you can only do so by entering the 'Glory World'," said Venerable Jiu Feng. "You will know the specifics once you enter, so I won't go into details."

At this point, his expression became somewhat strange. "However, given your current situation, I suggest that you calm down and cultivate for a while longer. Wait until you have established a relatively strong foundation in the Fusion Law before considering this aspect. Be more cautious."

Lin Yan blinked.

In the Glory World, you earn Glory Points through battles and exchange them for inheritance opportunities, but these battles are limited to the Fusion Law!

In Venerable Jiu Feng's view, regardless of whether Lin Yan is strong in the Path of Space-Time, compared to the Fusion Law, he is undoubtedly the weakest on the entire Purple Thorn Island. Going there would be nothing more than sending himself to his death.

It must be said that his idea makes a lot of sense.

Lin Yan agreed with this.

"We need to think of a way to address this. Whether we fight or not isn't the most important thing; the opportunity to inherit the legacy is still very necessary," he thought to himself.

However, there's no rush for now. With his rate of progress and the inheritance he just received, it should be quite easy for him to comprehend the second level.

"Now that the inheritance has ended, King Xuanyuan, you should also leave this place," said Venerable Jiu Feng. "Go, the entrance to the Space Passage is right behind you."

Lin Yan bowed respectfully.

They were then teleported away from an area in the void behind them that was rippling with transparent waves.

In the void.

Venerable Jiufeng gazed at the disappearing figure and chuckled to himself, "It is said that King Xuanyuan Lin Yan's cultivation comprehension is as easy as drinking water. Whether it is the law of time or the law of space, it is incredibly fast. I just wonder... how will he be able to comprehend this fusion law? It is truly something to look forward to."

Purple Thorn Island.

Lin Yan emerged from the Fountain Water Curtain, transforming into a stream of light that flew directly towards his mansion.

He gained a lot from this inheritance, but the main body is more suitable for the task of comprehending and digesting it, so there is no need for the Xue Qiao Clone to worry about it.

"My main purpose in coming here is to Treasure Land!" Lin Yan's eyes gleamed. "But there's no rush. I have plenty of time, so there's no need to go now."

"Throughout the entire Purple Thorn Island, the number of Third Level Inheritor and Fourth Level Inheritor is the largest, exceeding 99% in total. It's not good to keep showing up as Second Level Inheritor." He thought to himself, "The third level... shouldn't take too long."

Having a precedent of mastering the first level in four months, the gains from this inheritance were even greater, naturally giving him immense confidence.

Then...

Lin Yan then entered his residence and began to meditate. His main body comprehended the Path of the Beast God, while his Xue Qiao Clone continued to study the secret techniques.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, 160 years have passed since Lin Yan's retreat.

Lin Yan, who was sitting cross-legged in the attic, suddenly opened his eyes. He sensed himself and gently exhaled.

"This, this speed of progress is simply outrageous!"

The speed of his cultivation progress over these 160 years was so astonishing that even Lin Yan himself was speechless!

Not only has he entered the third level of the Path of the Beast God, but most importantly... he has fully comprehended the three major categories of the Time Law and Space Law. Only the last hurdle remains for him to become Universe Venerable!
