Breakthrough to the Eternal True Source Realm!

As Lin An stopped suppressing his power, the Origin Power within his body surged forth like a flood bursting its banks.

Rumble!

The next instant, the void trembled, and endless Origin Power rose up like a tide.

At the same time, endless rays of light swept out from the void, transforming into dazzling halos that surrounded Lin An Lin An, making him appear like a god.

No, with Lin An's current strength, he is indeed like a god.

"The Origin Power, the Tao transforms into countless forms..."

Lin An chanted mantras, each syllable resonating with the heavens and earth.

On the dazzling halos surrounding him, countless primordial divine runes gradually emerged.

Splash...

In the next instant, the surrounding space rapidly transformed, and Lin An's body instantly arrived in the World Origin Sea.

Although the Eternal Initial Source Realm has condensed its own origin, it still needs to rely on a great world.

However, to break through to the Eternal True Source Realm, one can exist independently of the Great World, and even create a new world on one's own if desired.

Existing independently of the greater world, having made initial contact with the power of chaos, one's words become law without consequence, and can create a world of their own.

Looking at the Sea of Origin before him, Lin An could clearly sense the intimate connection between himself and the Sea of Origin.

This world has no underworld, but it has reincarnation.

When a living being perishes, it will transform into its essence and return to the Sea of Origin, where it will await its next rebirth.

Lin An was the same; born in the Myriad Spirits Realm, he was once just an insignificant wisp of origin in the Sea of Origin.

But now that he has achieved the Eternal Realm, he is about to break through to the True Source Realm, which would allow him to escape the Sea of Origin of this world.

Then Lin An waved his hand, and the entire Sea of Origin surged up.

In just a few breaths, a peculiar mark appeared in the Sea of Origin.

Looking at the mark, Lin An felt a sense of connection and knew that this was his original mark.

"Today can be considered the day we separate."

Lin An couldn't help but laugh, and with a flick of his finger, the mark trembled slightly.

Then, without any hindrance, it transformed into a golden light and flew towards Lin An, eventually disappearing into Lin An's brow.

As the primordial imprint merged into his body, Lin An suddenly felt as if he were perfect, without any flaws.

Boom!

The next instant, the Origin Power within Lin An's body suddenly erupted, subsequently forming a perfect cycle.

Click, click...

As if some kind of shackle had been broken, Lin An's body began to disintegrate, transforming into countless rays of light from his fingertips.

Seeing this, Lin An did not panic, because he knew that this was the fundamental reconstruction that had to be experienced when breaking through to the Eternal True Source Realm.

Once the origin is reconstructed, it becomes a world in itself, no longer needing to depend on other larger worlds.

Soon, when the last piece of flesh and blood also turned into spiritual light, all the lights lit up at the same time, and Lin An's figure was then outlined.

Meanwhile, the Origin Power surged wildly into the outline, reshaping its body.

The process was extremely fast and without any obstacles.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a body as clear as jade, with every inch of its skin flowing with primal radiance, appeared.

Boom!

The moment the body appeared, the aura emanating from it surged dramatically.

[You have successfully broken through to the Eternal True Source Realm.]

Lin An slowly opened his eyes, feeling the surging power within his body. He simply clenched his fist, and fine black cracks immediately appeared in the surrounding space.

So strong!

Lin An was astonished. With his current strength, he had improved by more than a hundred or even a thousand times compared to before.

If he wanted to, he could easily kill his former self with a single punch.

At that moment, Lin An sensed something and looked up.

But then a vast expanse of starlight shone down, and a phantom figure appeared.

The figure stood tall and imposing, its features blurred, yet it exuded an aura powerful enough to suppress everything.

"This is the original projection."

Lin An understood. From the information Lin Chang gave him, he already knew that after breaking through to the Eternal True Source Realm, the Origin Projection would appear.

As for the function of this projection, it cannot enhance his strength; it is more like an instruction manual for using the source.

At this moment, the projection slowly raised its hand and lightly touched Lin An's brow with a finger.

In an instant, a massive amount of information flooded into his mind, including the mysteries of the Origin Power of Origin Power and instructions on how to use it.

It also pointed out hundreds of possible paths for future development.

As Lin An absorbed this knowledge, his understanding of the Origin Power also improved rapidly.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. When Lin An opened his eyes again after digesting the last bit of information, he found that the projection had long since disappeared.

"As expected of someone at the True Source Realm, they can actually transform themselves into a world and continuously grow stronger by nurturing life."

Lin An narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but think of the Great World he was currently in.

Perhaps this great world today was once a single being, which later evolved into a vast world, nurturing life and growing stronger, but unfortunately encountered the Sin Abyss World.

"This path that gave birth to the primordial world is good, but it is not suitable for me."

Lin An shook his head. Compared to the path of gestation, he preferred the current path, focusing on strengthening himself.

Without further thought, Lin An stepped out and left the space.

Then, with a sweep of his hand, the space vanished.

The Origin Island has been shattered, and this space is no longer of value to him. If the Human Race needs it, he can simply create a new space.

"Welcome back, Ancestor, from seclusion."

At this moment, a series of voices rang out, and thousands of the Immortal Realm Human Race experts bowed in unison.

During Lin An's seclusion, these Human Race powerhouses protected Lin An from outside the space.

"Hmm, how long has it been?" Lin An nodded and asked.

"Reporting to the Ancestor, it has been four years, three months, and sixteen days since you announced your seclusion," Xiao Wanjun said as he stepped forward.

Lin An's breakthrough just now made quite a commotion, and Xiao Wanjun and the others rushed over after receiving the news.

Four years is not a long time, and for two of those years he mainly focused on improving the rank of his secondary profession.

The remaining two years are spent absorbing the Origin Power of the Origin Island.

However, before the time acceleration of more than two thousand times, he had actually cultivated for more than five thousand years.

"Has anything happened to the Human Race during this time?" Lin An asked.

"Reporting to the Ancestor, nothing major has happened to the Human Race during this period. On the contrary, thanks to the resources left behind by the Ancestor before his seclusion, our Human Race has greatly increased in strength over the past few years."

Xiao Wanjun then explained the current situation of the Human Race.

Listening to the detailed data on how strong the Human Race had become, Lin An nodded secretly. Although they were still not as strong as those top races, they were not weak either.

After all, those top races accumulated their strength over countless years, so it's already quite fast that the Human Race has caught up in just a few years.

As they spoke, the group entered the main hall.

Inside the main hall, Lin An sat at the head of the table, while Xiao Wanjun and the others reported in turn on some of the events that had occurred among the Human Race during this period.

Nothing major has happened; the Human Race as a whole is developing in a prosperous direction.

"Elder Ninth, please continue preparing a batch of resources. I will refine another batch of pills after I return," Lin An said.

"Yes."

Meng Yuan immediately bowed and responded.

Lin An then talked about some other things and told everyone to go about their own business.

He planned to visit those Eternal Realm experts, as he had already mentioned before.

Besides visiting, his main purpose was to inquire whether any of the various races possessed Eternal Rank materials, which he could use to refine elixirs.

The next instant, Lin An took a step and disappeared.

The Land of Rules was extremely vast. Even with Lin An's current strength, it took him a full quarter of an hour to reach the Dragon Race.

"This is the Dragon Domain."

Lin An looked at the vast domain before him and deliberately released a wisp of his aura; soon, a figure appeared.

"Lin An has come from afar; I am so sorry for not welcoming you properly," Ao Zhuo said with a smile and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Please forgive my abrupt visit, fellow Daoist," Lin An returned the greeting.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two flew towards the Dragon Domain.

"Is this your first time visiting my Dragon Domain, fellow Daoist? How about I show you around?" Ao Zhuo said.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Lin An nodded.

He also wanted to see the overall strength of the Dragon Race.

With Ao Zhuo leading the way, Lin An soon began to tour the Dragon Domain.

The Dragon Race truly lives up to its reputation as one of the top clans; their years of accumulation have surprised even Lin An.

The number of Dragon Race is actually not that large. According to Ao Zhuo, the pure Dragon Race members now number barely over 100 million.

Breaking 100 million sounds like a lot, but it's important to remember that the Human Race is over 100 billion.

However, even though the number of Dragon Race is less than that of Human Race, their overall strength is much greater.

Unlike Human Race, Human Race need to start cultivating from scratch after birth. Even while in their mother's womb, they can be nurtured with rare and precious materials, but there is still an upper limit.

Dragon Race are different; they have their own bloodline inheritance, and Dragon Race can improve their strength even when they are still eggs.

Generally speaking, even without investing resources in nurturing them, a normal, pure Dragon Race will at least reach the Mythic Realm after birth.

Some offspring with powerful bloodlines can even reach the King Realm.

With a significant investment of resources in training, even those at the Sovereign Realm or Immortal Realm could achieve this.

It can be said that the Dragon Race was born with a starting point far superior to that of the Human Race.

Moreover, it's not just the Dragon Race; the top races are all quite similar.

"Fortunately, these top clans don't have high reproductive rates; otherwise, if Human Race had the same fertility as the humans, they wouldn't even be able to rule this world, let alone be driven out of the Sin Abyss."

Lin An thought to himself.

Of course, these top clans also knew that their numerical advantage was not significant, which is why they had collateral bloodlines.

For example, in the Dragon Domain Dragon Race, besides the Dragon Race members, there are actually many more collateral relatives who possess Dragon Race blood.

These collateral relatives are no fewer in number than the Human Race; they are mostly descendants of Dragon Race and other races.

It is also thanks to these collateral relatives that the Dragon Race race has a considerable population. Some of these collateral relatives can even reverse their bloodline and transform into dragons, which can be considered a method for the Dragon Race to increase its population.

Lin An followed Ao Zhuo around and gained a general understanding of the Dragon Race's strength.

Although the Human Race now has the support of his pills, and the number of the Immortal Realm has caught up with these top races, the quality is still far behind.

"Even with the support of my elixirs, it will still take at least a hundred years for the Human Race to catch up with these top-tier races in terms of overall strength."

Lin An thought to himself, "Of course, if I were to create a time-accelerating formation, this time could be advanced even further."

After they had finished their tour, Ao Zhuo invited Lin An to a small courtyard.

"Lin An, this is the Reverse Scale Tea, a specialty of my Dragon Race. Although it's of little use to us at this level, it still has a unique flavor," Ao Zhuo said with a smile.

Lin An looked at the teacup, where nine tea leaves had sunk to the bottom. These nine tea leaves were not emerald green, but instead emitted a faint golden light, while their veins were blood-red.

Reverse Scale Tea is considered a rare and precious item among Dragon Race.

It is said that the tea tree was cultivated by the Dragon Race using their reverse scales, and it has the effect of strengthening the physical body and enhancing one's bloodline.

There's even a sliver of a chance to acquire a Dragon Race technique.

This tea has a weaker effect on Human Race, but for other races that follow the path of bloodline, even a single tea leaf is extremely precious.

"I've heard about this Reverse Scale Tea for a long time; today I'll finally get to try it."

Lin An smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Ao Zhuo, then I won't stand on ceremony."

After speaking, Lin An also picked up his teacup and took a sip. It tasted slightly bitter at first, but quickly turned sweet.

At the same time, the power of the Dragon Race bloodline erupted, and Lin An suddenly seemed to see a huge dragon roaming the heavens and earth.

But then Lin An's eyes narrowed, and the dragon's figure instantly transformed into a rune. He could clearly sense that this rune contained a Divine Ability inherited by the Dragon Race.

"Truly extraordinary."

Lin An smiled and said, and the giant dragon's figure disappeared.

"Haha, I'm glad you like it, fellow Daoist."

Ao Zhuo asked, "May I ask what brings you here today?"

"It's nothing serious. I promised you, fellow Daoist, that I would pay you a visit after I finished my seclusion."

Lin An said, "Now that I have emerged from seclusion, I have come to keep my appointment. It would be even better if I could discuss the Dao with you, fellow Daoist."

"Of course it's possible. In the past, I often discussed the Dao with fellow Daoists from other races."

Ao Zhuo didn't refuse; he also wanted to witness Lin An's power.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ao Zhuo's aura suddenly erupted, and at the same time, a golden dragon appeared behind him.

Seeing this, Lin An did not hesitate. He activated the Origin Power, and his aura exploded. The Divine Wheel of Myriad Laws also appeared behind him.

Ao Zhuo, who had been smiling, now looked at Lin An with a completely bewildered expression.

"Fellow Daoist, your realm... you've broken through to the True Source Realm?" Ao Zhuo asked in shock.
