Luo Yuanzhao
During this refuge trip, Lu Yan'an obtained two items.
The first item was a token of the Universe Boat, specifically a high-grade Silver Token. Tokens within the Universe Boat were also categorized by quality, from lowest to highest: Black Token, Cyan Token, and Silver Token. Black Token... were generally only obtainable by extremely powerful Universe Master; Cyan Token were usually in the hands of the Universe Supreme Being; and Silver Token seemed to be possessed only by the powerful figures of the Two Holy Lands. But now, Silver Token that didn't belong to either of the Two Holy Lands had appeared.
The second item is the World Heart Token.
The existence of this thing was completely beyond Lu Yan'an's expectations. He truly hadn't imagined that such a World Heart Token could appear in this Three Thousand Dimension Worlds! Possessing World Heart Token is not only equivalent to having a second chance at life, but also allows one to cultivate in a world like the World Heart Continent, which is at a limit-breaking level. Such treatment would be considered phenomenal in any world!
"I originally thought encountering this Lava Demon God was just bad luck," Lu Yan'an thought to himself. "But I really didn't expect that every cloud has a silver lining! By some twist of fate, I actually managed to obtain a World Heart Token."
"Boom..." Perhaps Lu Yan'an's act of putting away the two items triggered the powerful being who left this space, because a wave suddenly burst out from the rock wall in front of him.
This sight caused Lu Yan'an, who had just picked up the Silver Token again, to look up. He saw an image beginning to appear on the rock wall in front of him, and a vague figure began to emerge. A man in black robes sat upright on a cloud, his aura ethereal and otherworldly. Looking down, it was as if the 'heaven' was looking down upon all people! Even the surrounding creatures dared not show the slightest disrespect!
"The one who came after me, my name is Luo Yuanzhao," said the man in the black robes.
"When you pick up the two items I left behind, you will see this image! But I don't know... which Reincarnation Era it will be when you see this image." In the image Luo Yuanzhao's mouth is moving, and at the same time, strange fluctuations are emanating from it. Although it is not in any language that Lu Yan'an knows, the fluctuations are transmitted to Lu Yan'an's mind, and Lu Yan'an naturally understands it.
At a certain point, language is no longer needed; the fluctuations of their will are enough for them to understand each other's meaning.
"It seems to be a powerful figure from before the Endless Reincarnation Era, possessing Silver Token. He is either a powerful figure from before the Two Holy Land Universes or a powerful figure from the Two Holy Land Universes!" Lu Yan'an secretly speculated.
The human database had already informed Lu Yan'an about some of the terrifying figures from the three great cosmic eras and the Two Holy Lands, but clearly, Luo Yuanzhao was not among them; he had never even heard of him. He was obviously not a being from one of those three cosmic Reincarnation Era.
"Even with all the resources of the entire Primal Universe at my disposal, I still have no confidence in taking this final step. This cycle of reincarnation is truly an insurmountable chasm!" Luo Yuanzhao said. "Before this final gamble, I don't want to waste my heritage, my countless efforts! So, on my way to this cycle of reincarnation, I left a token from the Universe Boat here. That token represents an independent space within the Universe Boat. Apart from taking my Supreme True Treasure with me to this cycle of reincarnation, I left everything else there."
"The fact that you, the one who came later, managed to bypass the Lava Demon God I deliberately left outside and reach this space proves that you have plenty of luck!"
"I don't know how many Reincarnation Era you've been through to become a powerful being," Luo Yuanzhao chuckled. "Although I'm invincible in the entire Universe Ocean, the only thing I lack is a bit of luck! It's because of this lack of luck that I'm forced to venture into the cycle of reincarnation today!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yan'an's heart raced! The legacy left behind by an invincible powerhouse who traversed the Universe Ocean? Good heavens, what does it mean when good fortune Wushuang in pairs? This is it! Although the World Heart Token is an incredible opportunity, the problem is that even if it's incredible, it's useless right now! Going to the World Heart Continent without laying a solid foundation would be truly foolish.
The legacy left behind by Luo Yuanzhao is perfectly suited for Lu Yan'an, who is laying the foundation in the Universe Ocean! Who wouldn't be bewildered by the legacy left by such an invincible being who roamed the universe and possessed all the resources of the entire Primal Universe?
The Silver Token of the Universe Boat is merely a "key." A lone Universe Supreme Being carries only their Supreme True Treasure; where would they put everything else? The wealth of a lone Universe Supreme Being is incredibly terrifying, but the wealth of a strongest individual who possesses all the resources of the entire Universe Ocean is far more terrifying!
"Junior," Luo Yuanzhao's voice echoed again, "In this vast universe, being born as a special cosmic life form is both a blessing and a curse! I hope you, junior, will have more luck than I have!"
"I have accumulated nearly three Reincarnation Era, and my time is running out. I have no choice but to make one last gamble and break through the cycle of reincarnation. If I can succeed... I will be able to exist eternally and even establish a Holy Land Universe."
"Right now, the Universe Ocean only has one Holy Land Universe," Luo Yuanzhao laughed. "I want to create two Holy Universe Ocean Holy Land Universe within it."
"Haha, I am a pioneer, and I must explore a bright path for those who follow! If I fail, you, my descendants, should take me as a warning! I have a feeling that this path of reincarnation that is blocking our transcendence is actually the starting point of another path!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in the black robes, Luo Yuanzhao, vanished in a flash, and his lingering image gradually faded away as well.
Lu Yan'an was left standing in front of the rock wall, stunned for a long time.
"What a remarkable Luo Yuanzhao!" After a long silence, Lu Yan'an also uttered a soft exclamation of admiration. "Having accumulated experience through three Reincarnation Era, yet still unable to take this final step, he still manages to maintain such a positive and bold mindset. I truly am inferior to him!"
Those who have lived through three Reincarnation Era often go mad because they are about to face their end. Even the various forces within the same Reincarnation Era fight amongst themselves, and the vast majority are insane. It is truly rare to maintain a positive and optimistic attitude when death is approaching.
Moreover, Luo Yuanzhao knowingly went to attempt the cycle of reincarnation despite knowing he would fail! This act adds a tragic dimension to his otherwise positive and optimistic mindset.
As for why Luo Yuanzhao didn't mention the World Heart Token, it's mainly because the World Heart Token is transparent and completely invisible! When Lu Yan'an first entered this space, he used his Spiritual Force to scan the entire area, and even he didn't notice it at first. It was only with the help of his Heart Power that he finally discovered it!
The World Heart Token is incredibly mysterious; only by gaining its approval can one see and possess it. Otherwise, it remains invisible even when right before one's eyes. Lu Yan'an didn't understand why this World Heart Token was placed alongside the keepsake left by Luo Yuanzhao; he could only say that there was some unseen "Yuan" meaning at play. Lu Yan'an then suppressed all of this in his heart, and after releasing his Spiritual Force again, he found nothing particularly special in this sandy space. Therefore, Lu Yan'an attempted to leave this sandy space.
Lu Yan'an cautiously explored the lava-flowing cavern for a long time. The Lava Demon God seemed to have already left, and even the surrounding caverns had been smashed open by the Lava Demon God, creating a huge gap. After testing the waters, he left in the opposite direction of the Lava Demon God's pursuit. This lava-flowing cavern area was clearly within the Core Land area of God-Extinguishing Ravine, a region where even the Universe Supreme Being could perish.
"I'm already lucky enough to have discovered and obtained Luo Yuanzhao's remnants and this World Heart Token! Some areas of this Core Land region are so frozen that even spacetime is frozen, making Teleportation impossible. This level of difficulty is not something I can recklessly venture into right now. If I accidentally get stuck somewhere, I'm afraid this Demon Beast Clone will have to be restarted!" Lu Yan'an immediately turned and left in the opposite direction, starting his return along the widest cave passage.
He traveled with trepidation, fearing that another Lava Demon God might suddenly appear halfway through! Fortunately, this time, he went very smoothly. He found a place with spatial fluctuations almost without encountering any trouble, and was finally able to Teleportation away from the God-Extinguishing Ravine!
