Primordial Ancestor's Guidance! The Soul Supreme Treasure "Ni Yi Chao"!
Virtual Universe, atop Thunder Island.
Origin Divine Hall.
Lin Yan was sitting cross-legged on the edge of a cliff with his eyes closed, letting the wind howl as he quietly cultivated himself.
Suddenly--
"Lin Yan." A voice suddenly rang out around him.
"Hmm?" Lin Yan opened his eyes and immediately saw a figure materialize out of thin air in the distance. A white-robed man walked over with a smile.
"Teacher." Lin Yan stood up and bowed respectfully.
"The 'Water Fire Origin' you received before, I have studied it carefully over the years, and it has touched me quite a bit." The white-robed Primordial Ancestor smiled calmly, like a spring breeze.
After Lin Yan received the "Water Fire Origin" inheritance left by Jie Fanzi, he did not keep it to himself. However, this secret method was not suitable for other strong people in the human race to cultivate, except for the Primordial Ancestor who was quite interested in it.
For the Primordial Ancestor, the "Virtual Universe" he created before he was suppressed was already Tier 10 Peak power without the aid of any Ultimate Supreme Treasure!
During the long years of being suppressed by the origin of the Primordial Universe, he made some breakthroughs. In fact, he had long surpassed the Universe's Strongest and reached the level of Void True God. However, he was suppressed all the time, which is why his divine body could not break through and his Small Universe could not evolve.
His realm was extremely high, and his will was even more extraordinary. However, limited by his knowledge and vision, he had reached this point and was now at a loss as to how to move forward.
Although Jie Fanzi's realm was not as high as that of the Primordial Ancestor, the Basic Laws he accidentally discovered were more profound and mysterious... They were also extremely novel insights for the Primordial Ancestor, making Primordial Ancestor understand the importance of the Ten Great Basic Laws even more.
With his wisdom and level of understanding, he has been able to analyze the path of laws more deeply over the years, and has already figured out the Basic Laws to an extremely high level.
"As long as it's useful to the teacher." Lin Yan smiled.
"It has indeed broadened my horizons. The mysteries of the Universe Rule are truly endless." The white-robed Primordial Ancestor sighed slightly, then looked at Lin Yan, "Lin Yan, how has your cultivation progressed over the years? Have you encountered any difficulties?"
When Primordial Ancestor taught Lin Yan, he mainly let Lin Yan explore on his own. He would only give guidance when Lin Yan felt confused and unable to make progress. Therefore, he would only give a lecture after a long period of time.
"After obtaining the 'Water Fire Origin,' I wanted to create a sixth-order secret technique based on water and fire, but I have already reached the limit and can hardly move forward," Lin Yan said.
"Tier 6 Secret Technique?" The Primordial Ancestor was somewhat surprised. "In the Cosmic Sea, no one has ever been able to create Tier 6 Secret Technique before becoming the Universe's Strongest. Even your Senior Brother Chaos, who is almost fully comprehending the complete Space-Time Fusion Law, cannot do it."
"The theoretical limit of the Universe's Strongest is the Tier 9 peak, but didn't you also create the Tier 10 Peak 'Virtual Universe' secret technique?" Lin Yan said slowly. "This is a major bottleneck in my secret technique, but I believe I can surpass it."
The Primordial Ancestor shook his head and chuckled, "Show me your secret technique."
"Yes." Lin Yan bowed respectfully.
Call!
With a thought, the environment within the temple transformed into endless void.
Lin Yan stood in the void, and suddenly water and fire appeared out of thin air around his body. The two different laws of water and fire intertwined and formed a huge lotus flower, which swirled wildly around him, like a millstone crushing everything, and time and space completely stopped.
"The mystery of the Water Law lies in its continuous flow, while the mystery of the Law of Fire lies in its explosive force. The mysteries of water and fire intertwine and transform with each other, forming a unified whole." The white-robed Primordial Ancestor praised softly, "Your ultimate technique has fully absorbed the essence of the two laws of water and fire, complementing each other. It is both unpredictable and infinitely powerful."
"Perhaps in terms of power, it is comparable to your 'Five Elements Beast God', but it is more exquisite and truly achieves a seamless integration. To have achieved this in such a short time, your comprehension is indeed amazing."
A hint of satisfaction appeared in the Primordial Ancestor's eyes.
"But how should we proceed?" Lin Yan frowned.
"The sixth rank is a qualitative transformation. Your realm is not high enough, so it is naturally extremely difficult for you." The Primordial Ancestor said calmly, "I will demonstrate a move, and you should carefully comprehend it."
The Primordial Ancestor casually pointed.
Suddenly, water and fire intertwined in the void, forming a huge millstone. In an instant, the collision of water and fire at the center of the millstone created a terrifying wind force, causing the millstone to spin and making the heavens and earth tremble.
"Besides, remember that what you create and unleash may not be what you truly understand," the Primordial Ancestor said softly, before his figure vanished into thin air.
Lin Yan was left standing alone, deep in thought.
"What is displayed and created may not necessarily be what one truly understands?" Lin Yan murmured to himself.
This was a lesson given to him by the Primordial Ancestor in the Virtual Universe when he had just created the "Water Fire Lotus" a few years ago. At first, he couldn't understand its mysteries, but gradually Lin Yan saw the flaws in his secret technique from the move the Primordial Ancestor used.
Seeing the flaws... is a very good thing.
Only by recognizing that something is not perfect can we find a direction to improve it.
"It's too monotonous."
"Water and fire, these two forces are too monotonous. Even when they are integrated, they still lack spirituality and change," Lin Yan thought to himself. "This is not the limit of the laws of water and fire, but my limit."
The pure Water Law can create a Tier 6 peak secret technique, but this is a fundamental transformation that Lin Yan cannot easily master; it may take an extremely long time.
However, if one creates a secret technique that transcends one's own limits, one must compensate for the shortcomings of that technique in other ways.
"Primogenitor Teacher showed me back then was the Wind Law, but there are many possible answers. The Gold Law, the Law of Light, the Space Law, and so on all have this possibility. The most important thing is to combine the element of 'law' to the point of breaking through the bottleneck!"
"And I... have chosen the Law of Thunder!"
Lin Yan, dressed in a magnificent white robe, looked down at the endless lake with unprecedented brilliance in his eyes. The lake was bubbling with bubbles, and blue flames swirled on its surface, as if alcohol had been ignited.
"Flame Water Lake," he said softly.
Flame Water Lake is a dangerous place on the Cosmic Boat, named for the flames that surround its surface.
Among the countless dangerous places in the vast Cosmic Boat, this place is only considered moderately dangerous. However, it is adjacent to the Annihilation Ravine- Annihilation Ravine Gorge, a place where many powerful Supreme Treasure are unearthed. Flame Water Lake is the end of the endless Magma Sea, and occasionally some Supreme Treasure will emerge from the lake.
After leaving the Primordial Universe, Lin Yan spent more than ten years traveling directly to this place.
Whoosh!
He looked up at the sky, and with a swift movement, rushed upwards at high speed.
Splash—
The wind howled fiercely, and the higher we flew, the colder the surrounding temperature became.
At the deepest point high above Flame Water Lake, endless blue flames swirl and spread as far as the eye can see.
"Frozen Lake Thunder Fire." Lin Yan pursed his lips, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
The main reason he chose the Law of Thunder was naturally the inheritance of the True Lord Zhendan. He had left behind a Green Line Devouring Worm clone in that cyan secret chamber space. Over the years, he had comprehended the Law of Thunder and had a very profound understanding of it.
Secondly, it's because of this "Frozen Lake Thunder Fire".
There are nearly a hundred kinds of dangers in the Flame Water Lake space, but most of them are only minor troubles for the Lord of the Universe. Only the Frozen Lake Thunder Fire is quite special.
Frozen Lake Thunder Fire is a blue flame containing thunder within it.
It is extremely cold, and once it is affected, it is enough to cause a top-level flying palace to collapse. Even the Universe's Strongest dare not confront it head-on, but they are helpless against the Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.
"Everything in the universe contains the Laws of Cosmic Operation. The birth, growth, and Annihilation of stars, or the Frozen Lake Thunder Fire in the desolate Cosmic Sea, are all manifestations of the Universe Rule," Lin Yan said softly. "Although this understanding of the universe is very profound, it should bring me some inspiration in the process of understanding it."
With a flick of his wrist, he produced a silver-white spaceship-shaped Supreme Treasure.
This is a Peak Palace Supreme Treasure, carrying a Green Line Devouring Worm clone that directly rushed into the vast Frozen Lake Thunder Fire at the top.
"The Green Line Devouring Worm clone will stay here to study, while I... will first go and explore the 'Twelve Abysses'." Lin Yan's mind stirred.
Whoosh!
He then took out the Primordial Emperor City, entered it himself, and then also entered the Frozen Lake Thunder Fire, continuing to fly upwards.
At the very top of the Flame Water Lake space, there is the Frozen Lake Thunder Fire. This Frozen Lake Thunder Fire did not come out of thin air, but originated from the "Twelve Abysses".
"Boom..."
Lin Yan flew upwards and saw that the endless Frozen Lake Thunder Fire was being swallowed up to form a twisted, huge vortex. Above him, a vast, endless Abyssal Black Hole appeared.
"The abyss is known as a dead end in the Cosmic Sea. Once you enter it, only the Universe's Strongest can come out." Lin Yan looked at the abyss. "However, I have the Ultimate Supreme Treasure Palace and have comprehended the Third Form Secret Patterns. It shouldn't be a big problem. Even if I really can't get out, I can ask the Giant Axe for help."
This abyss was also one of his destinations.
This place is notoriously stingy; no one has ever been known to find any powerful Supreme Treasure in the abyss. Even if Supreme Treasure are occasionally found, they are always the Supreme Treasure of other powerful beings who have fallen and left behind.
"I really don't believe that there are no treasures in such a dangerous place. Others may not be able to find them, but I can use the System Opportunity Function." Lin Yan made a decision directly and controlled the Primordial Emperor City to enter the dark bottomless abyss.
Rumble...
The frenzied absorption propelled the Primordial Emperor City at supersonic speeds deeper into the Black Hole, somewhat similar to Black Hole, but hundreds of millions of times stronger.
That incredibly violent suction force constantly swept through the Primordial Emperor City, first passing through the dark lands, colliding with unknown colossal objects, then being sucked into the Strangulation zone, and finally entering the extremely hot zone.
Six days later.
After flying past a dense, scorching flame, the external suction force had become extremely weak, and the tiny Primordial Emperor City began to fly inside the abyss.
Lin Yan glanced at the system's opportunity interface.
"It really is empty. Let's keep looking." He shook his head, not surprised at all, still trusting his judgment.
Anyway, he mainly focuses his energy on cultivation.
As for the opportunities and information, and controlling the Primordial Emperor City to roam this abyss, only a sliver of consciousness is needed.
He has seven opportunities at the Universe Venerable level, and he has already used five of them, respectively for [Primordial Emperor City], [Ancient Phoenix Robe], [Legacy of Cang Li], [Legacy of the True Lord Zhendan], and [Donghua Branch].
The Silver Token left by Cang Li requires a journey to the silver secret chamber at the Core Land the Cosmic Boat, which is too dangerous and needs to be put aside for the time being.
Of the remaining two, one must be reserved for the [Panwang Mountain Inheritance], which means there is only one last chance left.
Lin Yan originally planned to explore the abyss for hundreds of years, hoping to find it if he could, and leaving if he couldn't. But unexpectedly... less than thirty years later, he found a Defying Heaven Opportunity.
[Important Opportunity Discovered: Ni Yi Chao!]
[Soul Supreme Treasure the Void True God Level, primarily for Soul Enslavement, also possessing the functions of guarding souls and Split Spirit body defense. It was left behind by the Eternal True God "Mo Kui".]
[Requirement: Willpower (Already satisfied) — (Universe Venerable, requires the willpower of a Cosmic Lord)]
[Level of Chance Determination: Yellow!]
[Should we activate the opportunity?]
[Yes/No] (Number of times Venerable level access: 2/7)
"Soul Supreme Treasure, the Ni Yi Chao?" Lin Yan, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.
"Soul Supreme Treasure primarily used for Soul Enslavement is something I've never heard of before." Lin Yan couldn't help but be surprised. Soul Supreme Treasure are mainly used to guard the soul, and secondly for Soul Attack, illusion attacks, Split Spirit body defense. Soul Enslavement... he had never heard of it before.
As the saying goes, everyone has their own area of expertise. Just as there are many types of physical attacks, the distinctions between Soul-type are also very complex. Even the methods of enslavement are divided into many types, such as forced enslavement and illusionary enslavement.
"Mo Kui ... I remember it was mentioned in the original story. He was also a powerful figure in the Wu Kingdom Legion of the Cosmic Boat. Before his fall, he broke through to a new realm and left behind his unique Secret Pattern Diagram in a certain place in the abyss. With the help of Mountain Master, Luo Feng found that place." Lin Yan pondered, "It seems that he was a being who was good at Soul Enslavement."
The preciousness of the Ultimate Supreme Treasure lies largely in its extremely high-level secret runes, each of which represents a Combat Secret Technique.
The secret patterns within this "Ni Yi Chao" clearly represent various Soul Enslavement Secret Art.
To be honest, Lin Yan wasn't particularly interested in Soul Enslavement, but having another method was a good thing.
"The Ni Yi Chao is Soul Supreme Treasure at the level of Void True God. With this treasure guarding the soul, one is fearless of any Soul Attack in the Cosmic Sea! And this Split Spirit body's defensive ability makes it an absolutely heaven-defying Supreme Treasure!" Lin Yan revealed a hint of joy.
This directly opens up opportunities.
A message entered Lin Yan's mind.
Call!
The Primordial Emperor City flew above the rolling green waters deep in the abyss.
Lin Yan sensed the message from the system, frowned slightly, and then directly controlled the Primordial Emperor City to delve deeper into the green water layer. This water layer was extremely cold, comparable to the Frozen Lake Thunder Fire.
Upon landing at the bottom of the hydrosphere, his divine power permeated the surroundings, forming countless secret patterns that flowed through the surrounding space.
Whoosh!
The Primordial Emperor City vanished into thin air.
"If it weren't for the system's help, there really wouldn't have been a way to enter that special space," Lin Yan shook his head.
This is similar to the Star Tower, which contained numerous Forbidden Space. Through teleportation channels, one could travel from one space to another. This Cosmic Boat is also a wondrous Mechanical Flow Supreme Treasure with similar capabilities.
As the light flowed.
The Primordial Emperor City appeared out of thin air in a special space. This space was not large, containing only a majestic mountain range. At the summit of that mountain range stood a magnificent stone palace.
This stone palace must have been formed by carving and hollowing out the mountain rocks, becoming one with the mountain range. On the walls of the palace are various ancient paintings, the style of which is very similar to what he saw in the blue secret chamber of the True Lord Zhendan.
Whoosh!
The Primordial Emperor City transformed into a golden stream of light, penetrating directly into the stone palace and entering a side hall. Inside this vast hall, there were some elegant decorative carvings, almost all of which were just ordinary ornaments, except for a Black Sphere that was most eye-catching.
This Black Sphere is somewhat similar in shape to the Zerg Mother Nest, and it is covered with a dense array of holes. These dark holes resemble eyes emitting a ghostly glow, exuding an extremely eerie and intense aura.
"Boom!"
A surge of energy directly impacted Lin Yan's consciousness.
The Black Sphere before him seemed to have disappeared, and his consciousness naturally saw an endless area where countless beings existed— A World -Rock-type Lifeform, Metal-type Lifeform, or Flesh-type creatures.
All these Billions of Living Beings knelt and worshipped in one direction, uttering a unified sound!
"Mo Kui!"
"Mo Kui!"
"Mo Kui!"
That vast sound, like an endless wave, engulfed Lin Yan.
"Whoosh!"
Lin Yan, who seemed lost while sitting there, suddenly stood up, took a step out of the Primordial Emperor City, and grabbed the Black Sphere with his right hand.
