Human Race: The Great Powers Are Actually Us!

Lin Yan remained calm. With a flick of his hand, a bell radiating endless hazy colors appeared out of thin air, as if it were made of glass.

It is the "Dream Devouring Bell".

"Ding ding..."

The ethereal sound of bells suddenly rang in Lin Yan's mind, and he immediately felt invigorated, a smile involuntarily appearing on his face, and a sense of joy spreading deep within his soul.

His consciousness seeped in.

Inside the bell was a vast world, with countless white mists rising from its surface. Within these mists appeared scenes that he had experienced in tens of thousands of reincarnations, yet these scenes rose and fell within the mists.

"There's no other reaction." Lin Yan raised an eyebrow.

When he first broke through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, he obtained this treasure. As soon as his consciousness penetrated into it, he was involuntarily attracted by the white mist. He only had time to leave an email in the Virtual Universe before falling into this Dream World.

Now that he has awakened, he no longer feels the urge to engage with it.

"We still can't figure out the details of this treasure," Lin Yan thought to himself, "But the gains from this one time alone are already astonishing."

He put the Dream Devouring Bell away again.

Since Lin Yan's will broke through to the level of a true god, hundreds of millions of years have passed since he comprehended the Rhino Emperor Game or studied the Panwang Mountain lineage. However, this has had very little effect on improving his will. On the contrary, this "great dream" has caused his will to undergo a transformation.

"My past life has always been filled with battles, killings, and training, all in order to become stronger!"

"But in those dreams, I experienced more... even in a world where no extraordinary births exist, to live the life of an ordinary person, experiencing joys and sorrows, sweetness and bitterness, is equally worth savoring."

"This is a wondrous adventure of the soul, and each cycle, whether glorious, mundane, or desolate..."

"But each and every one of them is me."

Lin Yan was filled with mixed emotions.

Unlike when he touched the Tomb River Water in the "Eighteen Starfield Prison" and was trapped in a bizarre illusion, he spent millions of epochs in that illusion in a short moment, witnessing countless brilliant mysteries in the universe, like a passerby watching the lives of countless powerful beings in the illusion.

But that's someone else's life after all.

But this dream was his solo dance.

The dream was wondrous, everything felt incredibly real. He experienced love, hate, greed, lust, worry, surprise, joy, and all sorts of other emotions and desires within it—feelings he could hardly have had as "Lin Yan."

It is precisely because of this that his mind was able to awaken, rediscover himself, and reach a higher realm after being refined by these emotions and desires.

It is different from "Clear Mind, See Nature", different from "harmony between Unity of Heaven and Man", and different from the state of mind of "Mind Embraces All"!

In the description of "The Heavenly Demon Illusion," this realm is called "The Heavenly Demon Transformation."

But this is just a name; it represents a truly unrestrained and free existence.

Without rules or obstacles, his heart could no longer be described as "infinite," for it had transcended all concepts and no words could describe it.

"I didn't have much of an achievement in illusion magic before, but things are different now," Lin Yan thought to himself.

It's definitely different now.

Willpower, mindset, and illusion techniques complement each other.

One of the two talents he awakened through cultivating the Original System, "Nightmare Technique," is his innate ability to manipulate illusions. He also chose to cultivate the "Thousand Eyes Inheritance," and now his mind and will have undergone a complete transformation. He can easily cast a soul move, and those with weaker souls will directly sink into the Illusionary Realm.

"The progress in the laws is also significant, directly creating an ordinary Tier 7 secret technique," Lin Yan murmured softly.

In the Dream World, Lin Yan's memories were completely obscured, but all the classics, cultivation methods, and unique skills that appeared in each reincarnation were either things he had seen before or things he had created himself.

There are quite a few cultivation schools related to the Universe Rule System in the Panwang Mountain Inheritance, but they are not considered too advanced. For example, the 360 sword manuals that helped Luo Feng create the Tier 6 peak sword technique "Nirvana Rebirth" and the three Blade Mountain containing the Law Patterns are all extremely basic content.

Although he lost his memories, Lin Yan guessed that this was simply to prevent him from being disturbed by his previous memories in the slightest! In terms of cultivation, he would still be influenced by the real world and follow a similar path.

Furthermore, it will stir up various conflicts in the world, forcing him to constantly cultivate and improve.

In each cycle of reincarnation, his cultivation foundation continued to accumulate.

Lin Yan had previously created the Tier 6 peak secret technique "Three Lives Flower". With the guidance of the inheritance, it is actually quite normal for him to be able to take it a step further and create Tier 7 secret technique.

Certainly--

This is just what he thinks is normal.

Even on the Origin Continent, it is extremely rare for a Universe Lord to be able to create Tier 7 secret technique. Among the successive Duan Dong He, only a portion of them were able to create Tier 7 peak secret technique.

Although Lin Yan has not yet reached the peak of the seventh rank, he has only recently broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in the future.

If it weren't for the Dream Devouring Bell... he could have reached the same level in terms of mastery of secret techniques if he had cultivated for a few more years.

However, without this treasure, it would be extremely difficult to elevate one's state of mind and condense the "Prototype of the Rule God Heart".

Both the state of mind and the Heart of the Beast God are extremely ethereal and elusive.

As his strength increased and he cultivated for longer periods, those simple emotions became less likely to affect him.

Especially the Heart of the Beast God...

Even if one fully comprehends the Fusion Law such as "Golden-Space" and "Mu Kong," one is only at the level of Universe Overlord. Only by fully comprehending the Path of the Beast God and understanding the Heart of the Beast God can one transform into a true Beast God and break through to the level of a cosmic master.

Each Path of the Beast God has a different Heart of the Beast God.

Lin Yan cultivated the Eight Great Beast God Paths, and the path of this real world was projected onto the process of "Zhuang Zhou Dreams of a Butterfly." In that vast world, he truly transformed into Beast God and fought a bloody battle in the endless starry sky.

He has mastered the hearts of Eight Great Beast Gods!

He also truly understood why the Innate Beast God was so special, born as the master of the universe... He realized that the Ancestor God Cult, as the guardian of the Primordial Universe, did not spread the more widespread Path of Space-Time, but rather the Beast God Inheritance...

The Innate Beast God is the embodiment of the Fusion Law, and the Heart of the Beast God is actually a manifestation of the Universe Rule.

Even after condensing the Prototype of the Rule God Heart, he felt that this path had the potential to evolve into a cultivation system!

When powerful, they can mobilize the power of the Universe Origin with every move, making their combat strength extremely terrifying. Even the Ancestor God of the Ancestor God Cult does not have such authority!

"In the Dream World, I once successfully communicated with the Universe Origin through the 'Prototype of the Rule God Heart', allowing the power of the Universe Origin to descend directly... but that was the origin of the vast world in the Dream Devouring Bell, not the Primordial Universe."

"However, the Path of the Beast God is not unique to this Primordial Universe. Since I have such experience, perhaps I can try it in reality." Lin Yan's eyes shone.

How can comprehend the mysteries of the laws compare to experiencing the power of the Universe Origin?

Allowing the Universe Origin to descend upon you is the most direct way to explore the Operation Rule! It greatly helps in comprehending the Laws of Cosmic Operation.

He discovered this path by chance in the Dream World, but the Panwang Mountain lineage could not provide him with any guidance, so he could only try it on his own.

"We'll think about these things later." Lin Yan shook his head. "I've been asleep for so many years, which is why the 'Lord of All Things' hasn't been able to cultivate yet, and I'm sure they've been worried about it for a long time."

At the same time--

Inside the Chaos Ruins.

"Buzz..."

The blood-red, scaled beast that roamed the ruined continent emitted a noisy buzzing sound from its body, instantly disintegrating into countless tiny primordial particles.

All these particles recombined and transformed into the appearance of Lin Yan himself, wearing a set of black and blood-stained Supreme Treasure Armor.

"Senior brother," Lin Yan chuckled softly.

"Lin—" The Chaos City Lord, who had been sitting cross-legged, suddenly stood up. His fierce face could not hide his excitement. As soon as he opened his mouth, he looked at Lin Yan and suddenly froze.

The Lin Yan before him gave him a feeling that he couldn't see through him.

It's completely unfathomable.

What level of cultivation does he possess? Especially since this is the Initial Universe he controls, he can easily explore all its mysteries.

But Lin Yan has changed so much now. His Transcendent aura is like that of a being on another level. If you really want to say, only the Primordial Ancestor could come close to this feeling.

Thinking of this, the Chaos City Lord was secretly alarmed.

If Lin Yan gave him a feeling similar to that of the Primordial Ancestor back then, that would be fine. But he instinctively felt that even the Primogenitor Teacher could not be like Lin Yan.

What exactly happened to cause such a dramatic change?

"Junior brother, have you been asleep all these years because of the ancient inheritance you mentioned?" the Chaos City Lord asked. "Did you really obtain that inheritance?"

His eyes held expectation.

"Yes." Lin Yan chuckled and nodded. "That's true."

"Haha..." The Chaos City Lord laughed, full of joy, "It's clear that you've gained a lot."

Luo Feng was his disciple, and he was happy for Luo Feng to receive the Duan Donghe Inheritance, but he couldn't help feeling a little sorry for Lin Yan.

The Duan Donghe Inheritance is a rare opportunity that is even rarer in the Endless Samsara Era of the Cosmic Sea. Lin Yan was unable to participate in the competition, not because he lacked strength or talent, but simply because of a bit of luck.

But now it seems...

Since Lin Yan began cultivating, when has he ever had bad luck?

"Indeed, I have gained a lot." Lin Yan smiled. "My true form is still cultivating, but when my senior brother sees me again, my strength may be comparable to that of the True Master Shenyan and the others. Who knows?"

"What?"

The Chaos City Lord stared wide-eyed, utterly incredulous. "The True Master Shenyan?"

"How... how is this possible?"

His brain couldn't help but freeze for a moment.

The Chaos City Lord had tried very hard to imagine Lin Yan's strength improving, but this possibility... was something he would never have thought of!

Since the Primordial Ancestor was Permanently Suppressed, the strongest being in the Cosmic Sea for a long time was this True Master Shenyan. Even the Great Axe Founder, who possessed the Ultimate Supreme Treasure, the Divine Axe, was only on par with him in strength.

Even considering the Supreme Treasure, the Giant Axe is slightly weaker.

In such a short time, Lin Yan actually had the confidence to reach this level? The Chaos City Lord was completely shocked.

Virtual Universe, in front of the Great Axe Divine Hall.

When news of Lin Yan's awakening spread, all the strongest people in humanity gathered here.

Strangely, the atmosphere here was very odd, completely silent, and everyone looked at Lin Yan with blank expressions.

A moment later.

The Great Axe Founder, seated in the main seat, broke the silence.

"So... Lin Yan, you have now broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, and you have also created a Tier 7 secret technique over the years?" The Great Axe Founder looked at Lin Yan with an extremely interesting expression.

Surprise, shock, disbelief, and... a headache.

Lin Yan's breakthrough to the Universe Master level was incredibly encouraging for them, but that was normal; it would have been abnormal if he hadn't been able to break through.

Other universe masters, when they first break through, still have to spend energy creating Ultimate Secret Technique the universe master level.

Our own Universe Venerable have already created Tier 6 peak secret technique at the level of the Universe's Strongest, and there are two of them!

But... Tier 7 secret technique?

This is going to fly to the heavens!

How long has it been?

More than 30,000 years ago, Lin Yan killed the Shadow Bell Demon Lord. More than 50,000 years ago, Lin Yan had just broken through from the World Master realm to the Universe Venerable. And now... Brother, you've created Tier 7 secret technique?

Everyone present was stunned.

"Yes." Lin Yan smiled and said, "After breaking through to the Lord of the Universe, my divine power soared a hundredfold. Facing the Universe's Strongest, my divine power has a great advantage. In recent years, I have appeared to be asleep, but in fact, I created a seventh-order secret technique in a strange space."

Declaring your own capabilities is the best way to show them what you're capable of.

Before his breakthrough, he was already at the peak of the seventh rank; after the breakthrough, he directly reached the Tier 8 peak! In addition, he also made a slight breakthrough in his secret techniques, thus fully reaching the ninth rank of combat power!

This is slightly weaker than the True Master Shenyan, but it is already comparable to the Lord Hai of the Skeleton Clan and other top powerhouses in the Cosmic Sea.

This is without even taking the Original System into account.

"No wonder you said you could rival the True Master Shenyan," the Great Axe Founder exclaimed. "Lin Yan, you possess Ultimate Supreme Treasure. Usually, the fifth layer of secret runes on Ultimate Supreme Treasure represents Tier 8 Peak Secret Technique, and the sixth layer represents Tier 9 peak secret technique!"

"I have mastered the sixth secret rune of the Divine Axe."

"Your previous mastery of secret techniques was at the Tier 6 peak, only able to unleash the Fourth Layer of the Ultimate Supreme Treasure. But now you've gone a step further, reaching the seventh rank... It's entirely possible that you'll comprehend the fifth level of the Ultimate Supreme Treasure's secret runes!"

Upon hearing this...

All the powerful figures present understood.

The fifth level should theoretically be the Tier 8 peak, but Lin Yan has the "Annihilation" talent, so he can definitely reach the Tier 9 peak!

"A monster, a real monster!" The Great Axe Founder gasped, dumbfounded.

Both are Tier 9 peak, but how long did it take you?

How long did it take True Master Shenyan arrive?

He cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years without breaking through to Universe's Strongest, and without comprehending the Chaos Evolution of Small Universe, yet he reached the Tier 9 peak?

If the Great Axe Founder had heard someone say this before, he would have slapped them across the face.

What nonsense! What nonsense!

Isn't this insulting?

Damn, this is really eye-opening.

Luo Feng was equally dumbfounded.

Having created the Tier 6 peak sword technique "Nirvana Rebirth" and received the Duan Donghe Inheritance, he originally thought he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

Lin Yan possesses the Annihilation Talent, and he also has the Burning Divine Power Secret Method "Duan Mie," but he hasn't had time to cultivate it yet.

Lin Yan wrote "Three Lives Flower," and he wrote "Nirvana Rebirth."

Lin Yan possesses Ultimate Supreme Treasure, and he also has Ultimate Supreme Treasure Palace the "Star Tower".

No matter what, it's impossible for him to fall further behind, and he might even overtake me soon, because his Star Tower is different from other Ultimate Supreme Treasure.

Other Ultimate Supreme Treasure are all top-tier seventh-tier, Tier 8 peak, and Tier 9 peak!

The Star Tower is at the peak of the seventh rank – the eighth rank – the Tier 8 peak – the ninth rank – the Tier 9 peak!

For example, he created Tier 6 peak secret technique. Normally, one can only comprehend the Fourth Layer the secret runes, but the Star Tower allows one to unleash the Fourth Layer and fifth levels, maximizing one's strength.

As long as he breaks through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, learns the "Duan Mie" technique, and comprehends the fifth level of the secret runes, he can reach the ninth-tier combat power... The plan is perfect.

But before he could even implement his plan, Lin Yan broke through again!

"Although it's outrageous, I've actually gotten used to it," Luo Feng comforted himself.

After all these years, it's hard for him not to get used to it.

He felt a sense of relief; it was fortunate that he had encountered the Duan Donghe Inheritance. Otherwise, he would be lucky to have created Tier 5 secret technique, and the gap would be even greater.

"So... our human race is about to become invincible?" Lord Huang Jian was dumbfounded.

Is the True Master Shenyan powerful?

That's incredibly powerful! There are two such beings in our human race!

Furthermore, having inherited the Ancient Civilization Inheritance ... those who previously envied the two major Holy Land Universes and the powerful Cosmic Sea nations like the Divine Eye Clan suddenly discovered—

The great powers are actually myself!

"Tens of thousands of years ago..." Lord Huang Jian scratched his head, somewhat blissfully questioning his existence, "Weren't we still fighting with the Demon Race?"

"How can you say you're invincible just like that!"
