On Lin Yuan's planet in the Giant Axe Secret Realm.
In the cultivation chamber, Lin Yuan's consciousness withdrew from the Virtual Universe, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"I've been stuck at Universe Level for over seventeen thousand years. That really is a long time." Lin Yuan sighed inwardly. "At last, I'm about to break through to Domain Lord Level."
It was rare for a peerless genius to advance to Domain Lord Level as late as Lin Yuan, who was already over twenty thousand years old. Most stayed at Universe Level for around a thousand years, and advanced to Domain Lord Level by the time they were a few thousand years old at most.
Lin Yuan sent a message to his guard, Watson. A moment later, Watson arrived at Lin Yuan's cultivation chamber.
"Your Highness, what are your orders?" Watson asked respectfully.
Lin Yuan's expression was calm as he said, "Watson, I'm preparing to break through to Domain Lord Level. If you hear anything from my cultivation chamber in a moment, there's no need to worry."
"You're about to break through to Domain Lord Level?" Surprise flickered in Watson's eyes. His Highness Lin Yuan had been a Universe Level genius in the Giant Axe Secret Realm for less than two hundred years. He had barely taken on any cultivation missions, yet he was already about to advance to Domain Lord Level.
Watson was taken aback for just a moment before he replied respectfully, "Your Highness, please focus on your breakthrough. I'll lead all the guards to secure the area outside the planet and make sure no one disturbs you."
"There's no need to make such a fuss," Lin Yuan said. "My breakthrough won't take long. You can just stand guard outside my palace."
"Yes, Your Highness." Watson respectfully withdrew and
