Creating Heavenly Laws

"Good, good, good!

" The Strongest one, Xia Qin, spoke with excitement, growing more satisfied the more he observed Lin Yuan.

Over the long years, he had nurtured several descendants, pouring his heart and soul into their development.

These descendants possessed the bloodline of a twelve-rank life form, and combined with the personal cultivation by the Strongest one, they achieved quite remarkable accomplishments.

But compared to Lin Yuan?

Xia Qin felt a bit ashamed.

So far, the only thing Xia Qin, the Strongest one, had done to nurture the Master of the Milky Way Star Domain was to take him to the banks of the River of Time once.

As for anything more?

There was none.

That Divine Sealing Bead, capable of fending off ultimate attacks of the same rank, was something that every human genius of supreme talent received upon being summoned by the Strongest one.

The only difference in how Xia Qin treated Lin Yuan compared to other supreme human geniuses was allowing the Master of the Milky Way Star Domain to witness the full extent of the River of Time while still at the ninth rank.

This kind of opportunity could be considered significant, or perhaps not that significant.

For the mediocre, there was no difference between seeing it or not.

Even for supreme evolutionary geniuses, it would at most smooth the path in comprehending the laws of time.

But Lin Yuan?

He only watched for a moment, and within less than thirty years, he comprehended the laws of time?

Such a result left even Xia Qin, the Strongest one, somewhat dumbfounded.

He indeed hoped that Lin Yuan would comprehend the laws of time while still at the ninth rank.

But he hadn't expected it to happen so quickly!

Lin Yuan looked toward Xia Qin, who was seated on the throne.

In the past, when Lin Yuan was first summoned by Xia Qin, even after learning that Lin Yuan was the founder of the martial evolution path, Xia Qin had only shown a few signs of approval.

But to be this excited now, uttering three consecutive "goods"?

Before today, Lin Yuan had never expected the Strongest one to display such an emotional response.

"It seems that the gains from comprehending the laws of time at the ninth rank and then breaking through to the tenth rank are even greater than I imagined," Lin Yuan thought to himself.

"When will the transformation be completed?

"Xia Qin, the Strongest one, observed Lin Yuan for a while before asking.

As for the many details of breaking through from the ninth rank to the tenth rank, he was naturally well aware.

The body, soul, mind, will, and even the internal world would undergo a slow transformation.

Once the transformation reached a critical point, the final breakthrough could be made, fully stepping into the tenth rank.

During this period, it's best for the evolver not to exert themselves fully, as it could affect the progress of the transformation.

After completing the full ninth level of transmigration, the reason Lin Yuan chose to wait until after the end of the Mysterious Emperor's Secret Realm to break through was due to concerns that something unexpected might happen during the transformation.

ŔWhen breaking through from the ninth rank to the tenth rank, not only would Lin Yuan's true form undergo transformation, but his two other primordial spirits would also undergo transformation.

"Originally, it would have taken sixty years.

""Now, at most, it will take twenty years to reach the peak of the transformation, and then I can break through.

"Lin Yuan immediately replied.

Why does a ninth-rank evolver need to open up at least ten million spatial layers to reach the threshold for breaking through to the tenth rank?

Because only with this number of spatial layers could the transformation be barely conducted, eventually leading to the tenth rank.

But "barely" is the keyword here.

The more spatial layers opened, the easier the transformation process becomes.

"You've comprehended the laws of time and mastered both space and time.

With a complete and independent internal world, the speed of transformation will naturally skyrocket," Xia Qin, the Strongest one, nodded.

It's like comparing the speed of two wheels to that of four or even eight wheels.

With an internal world fused with the laws of time, it's far more than just adding a few wheels compared to an internal world supported only by spatial laws.

It's a qualitative change, a great leap forward.

"Breaking through from the ninth to the tenth rank, even an ordinary evolver must endure the infusion of the universe's origin, during which they cannot be disturbed.

"Xia Qin, the Strongest one, looked at Lin Yuan.

Ordinary evolvers needed to endure the infusion of the universe's origin.

But Lin Yuan had to endure the infusion of the origin of the chaotic void.

He absolutely could not be disturbed.

"Where do you plan for me to break through?

" Lin Yuan took the initiative to ask.

The Strongest one would certainly know best about these matters.

"You should break through within the Milky Way Star Domain.

""Also, recall as many of your external avatars as possible during the breakthrough.

"After some thought, Xia Qin, the Strongest one, spoke.

Breaking through from the ninth to the tenth rank should be done in the safest possible place.

The safest regions in human civilization are just a few.

One is the Central Star Domain, the heart of human civilization, suppressed by numerous clan-guarding weapons.

Even if an alien Strongest one comes, they wouldn't gain anything.

The second is in the various evolutionary towers.

Evolutionary towers are places where the Strongest ones reside.

Being inside the tower is equivalent to having the protection of the Strongest ones.

It's incredibly safe.

However.

The speed of transformation in Lin Yuan's internal world was simply too fast.

It was less than twenty years away from the peak of transformation.

Whether it's the nearest evolution tower or the Central Star Domain, they are countless light-years away from the Milky Way Star Domain.

If Lin Yuan wanted to go there, he would inevitably spend a lot of time traveling.

This made Xia Qin, the Strongest one, feel that it wasn't ideal.

Lin Yuan is, after all, the only being in human civilization so far to comprehend the laws of time while still at the ninth rank.

He might even be the only one in this entire universe, from its birth to its destruction, throughout an entire cosmic epoch.

So there was no need to waste precious time before the breakthrough on traveling.

"I will send an avatar to the Milky Way Star Domain.

You just focus on your breakthrough," Xia Qin, the Strongest one, said.

Although the Milky Way Star Domain is covered by the virtual world network, and Yu Die, the Strongest one, can descend with an avatar at any time.

But Lin Yuan is someone Xia Qin values.

Usually relying on Yu Die, the Strongest one, for care is fine.

But now, at such a critical moment as breaking through from the ninth to the tenth rank, still relying on Yu Die?

He felt it was a bit inappropriate.

Since Lin Yuan's breakthrough wouldn't take long, sending an avatar wouldn't be too much effort.

"Thank you, Strongest one," Lin Yuan expressed his gratitude.

To have a Strongest one personally protect him during his breakthrough?

In human civilization, this is probably a treatment only available for those breaking through from the eleventh to the twelfth rank.

Lin Yuan enjoyed this treatment when breaking through from the ninth to the tenth rank, which shows how much Xia Qin, the Strongest one, values him.

However, with the potential Lin Yuan has currently displayed, his importance is in no way inferior to that of the peak eleventh-rank evolvers in human civilization.

He might even be considered much stronger in the heart of the Strongest one.

To the Strongest ones, the difference between the ninth and eleventh ranks is not significant.

What matters is the potential and possibility of breaking into the twelfth rank.

So far, Lin Yuan has performed better in this regard than those peak eleventh-rank evolvers.

Breaking through from the ninth to the tenth rank, and then from the tenth to the eleventh rank, to enjoy the chaotic void origin infusion twice, a treatment only available when breaking through from the eleventh to the twelfth rank?

This means that when Lin Yuan reaches the peak of the eleventh rank, his body, soul, mind, will, internal world, and so on will surpass most eleventh-rank powerhouses.

Even if he doesn't match those peak eleventh-rankers in rule comprehension, his foundational strength will allow him to survive and even fight back.

And once Lin Yuan reaches the peak of the eleventh rank, his chances of ultimately reaching the twelfth rank will be much higher than other peak eleventh-rankers.

This increased probability comes entirely from Lin Yuan himself, not external factors.

And if you add the support of human civilization, including the use of key treasures?

At least Lin Yuan is the most likely evolver to reach the ultimate rank in the last two million years of human civilization.

Such an unparalleled genius, what else is there to do but to prioritize him?

"During your breakthrough, try to enter the deeper layers of the space," Xia Qin, the Strongest one, reminded one last time.

"Alright.

"Lin Yuan nodded.

When he broke through from the eighth to the ninth rank, he had not yet opened any space layers.

So he chose a desolate star domain to break through, which minimized the impact.

Xia Qin's suggestion to break through in the deeper space layers was along the same lines.

When Lin Yuan broke through from the eighth to the ninth rank, the impact only spanned tens to hundreds of light-years.

But the breakthrough from the ninth to the tenth rank—just the internal world's increase in foundation alone is over ten million times greater.

If he doesn't break through in the deeper space layers, the impact could be immense.

And the main source of the impact is the infusion of the chaotic void origin, which Xia Qin, the Strongest one, could not intervene to stop.

Stop it?

Stop the infusion of the chaotic void's origin?

Such a foolish thing would never cross Xia Qin's mind.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan's figure disappeared.

Xia Qin, the Strongest one, sat on his throne, a thought crossing his mind.

An avatar appeared outside the Evolution Tower and took a step toward the Milky Way Star Domain.

The Xia You Evolution Tower and the Milky Way Star Domain are separated by an unimaginably long distance of light-years.

But for the Strongest one, such distances are insignificant.

Milky Way's main star.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, with most of his mind focused on his slow transformation.

The transformation starts with the internal world, gradually affecting the body, soul, mind, and will.

So, comprehending the laws of time and making the internal world independent and complete played a crucial role in the entire transformation process.

"Twenty years.

"Even with only twenty years left until the tenth rank, Lin Yuan did not want to waste any time.

Instead, he revisited the Martial Evolution Path in his mind, from the first stage to the ninth stage.

Every detail flooded his mind.

Although Xia Qin, the Strongest one, valued his comprehension of the laws of time more, Lin Yuan knew deep down.

His foundation would always be the Martial Evolution Path.

This is the basis of everything for Lin Yuan.

Reviewing the Martial Evolution Path is like revisiting the path of evolution he has walked.

"Can the Martial Evolution Path be further refined?

Can it be made even better?

" Lin Yuan began examining each word from the beginning.

Compared to when he had just completed the ninth transmigration, Lin Yuan had made significant progress, even though he was still at the ninth rank.

But after comprehending the laws of time and mastering space-time, Lin Yuan's understanding of the essence of power and the essence of rules had undergone substantial changes.

Now, as he reviewed the Martial Evolution Path, he naturally had new insights and realizations.

"The first rank should place more emphasis on the foundation.

The body is the beginning of martial arts.

Without a strong physique, martial arts will struggle to reach the end.

""The second rank.

""The third rank.

"Lin Yuan began to make subtle 'changes' to the Martial Evolution Path.

These changes didn't involve major shifts, only minute adjustments to make the Martial Evolution Path more refined and perfect.

At the very least, it would help many martial practitioners face fewer challenges in cultivating the Martial Evolution Path.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had gone by.

Lin Yuan finally finished reorganizing the Martial Evolution Path from start to finish.

From the first rank to the ninth rank.

"The current Martial Evolution Path makes it easier for evolvers to understand, and the essence is explained more clearly.

" A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

The Martial Evolution Path was something he had created from scratch, drawing from countless cultivation systems and evolutionary paths, and ultimately establishing it.

As for the martial arts from the first transmigration world?

Lin Yuan's Martial Evolution Path now was entirely different from the martial arts of that world.

The martial arts of that world were just a rough application of physical strength and vitality, with an upper limit barely reaching the first stage.

But the Martial Evolution Path?

It had the potential to become the strongest evolutionary path.

"Let's update it directly.

" Lin Yuan selected the refined Martial Evolution Path and re-uploaded it, replacing the original Martial Evolution Path.

In the virtual world of the southern star region.

In the central square area.

Countless evolvers and high-level citizens were chatting casually.

At that moment...

"Look, the evolution rankings have been updated.

""The Martial Evolution Path has risen to forty-second place.

""That's incredible, a ninth-rank evolution path breaking into the top forty-two of the star region rankings?

""The founder behind the Martial Evolution Path must be one of the top evolutionary scholars of our human civilization, with an unimaginable level of exploration in the field of evolution.

""At this rate, when he uploads the tenth stage, and it becomes a tenth-rank evolution path, won't it break into the top ten of the evolution rankings?

"The many evolvers and high-level citizens discussed fervently.

The Martial Evolution Path had now become the most legendary evolution path in the southern star region.

Its influence was even greater than some of the eleventh-rank evolutionary paths in the top ten of the star region's evolution rankings.

Most of the peak eleventh-rank evolutionary paths had histories spanning one or two million years, and their potential had reached its limits.

But the Martial Evolution Path was only at the ninth rank.

What will its ranking be when it reaches the tenth or even the eleventh rank?

Milky Way's main star.

Lin Yuan glanced at the latest ranking of the Martial Evolution Path.

"It rose eleven ranks.

"Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

This time, he had only made subtle adjustments to the Martial Evolution Path, yet it had jumped from fifty-third to forty-second place.

It perfectly met Lin Yuan's expectations.

The rise in the ranking of the Martial Evolution Path also earned Lin Yuan a reward of eight million merit points.

This was the joint assessment of the three goddesses.

Although the potential of the updated Martial Evolution Path hadn't increased significantly, its adaptability had improved greatly, and each stage was nearly perfect.

"The Martial Evolution Path has developed well over the past few decades.

"Lin Yuan pulled up the latest cultivation data for the Martial Evolution Path, which covered the number of evolvers at each stage.

"Rank one: eight trillion.

""Rank two: nine hundred and twenty billion.

""Rank three: nine hundred million.

""Rank four: eighty million.

""Rank five: twelve million.

""Rank six: one hundred and three thousand.

""Rank seven: five thousand six hundred.

""Rank eight: zero.

""The number of evolvers from Rank one to Rank three has skyrocketed by several tens of times, but from Rank four onwards, the growth rate has slowed significantly.

"Lin Yuan wasn't surprised.

No matter the evolutionary path, in the early ranks, that is, from Rank one to Rank three, progress could be 'accelerated.

'Before involving the comprehension of the essence of rules, evolution was just a matter of accumulating energy.

And accumulating energy, as long as there were enough resources, wasn't a big issue.

But from Rank four of the Martial Evolution Path onwards, it involved the comprehension of rules.

This aspect cannot be 'accelerated,' and external forces can only make comprehension slightly easier.

But it definitely can't replace the need for comprehension to directly advance.

Compared to the past few decades, the number of evolvers at Rank six and seven had hardly changed.

"Over these years, about ten million universe crystals have been accumulated.

" Lin Yuan glanced at the income from the Martial Evolution Path.

Ten million universe crystals are a considerable sum, even for a tenth-rank evolver.

It's more than enough for a typical ninth-rank evolver with ten million spatial layers.

But this was just the accumulation from the Martial Evolution Path over the last thirty years.

Thirty years, let alone for ninth or tenth-rank evolvers, is an exceptionally short time even for eighth-rank evolvers.

Milky Way Star Domain.

Xia Qin, the Strongest one, stood quietly, surveying the entirety of the Milky Way Star Domain, as well as the surrounding star domains and star alliances.

Even with just an avatar, he possessed the fundamental combat power of a twelfth-rank powerhouse.

Moreover, with this avatar as a 'beacon,' Xia Qin's true form could descend in an instant.

"To comprehend the laws of time at the ninth rank is truly remarkable," a figure condensed from illusory power appeared beside him, revealing Yu Die, the Strongest one.

Among the nine Strongest ones of human civilization, Yu Die's combat strength wasn't the highest, but she was equally indispensable.

The virtual world network that covered all of human civilization originated from Yu Die, the Strongest one.

The so-called virtual world that nearly perfectly replicates reality was meticulously crafted by Yu Die, and it operates with nearly ninety percent of the essence of the main universe.

Through the virtual world, Yu Die, the Strongest one, can descend upon any location within human civilization with just a thought.

"Indeed," Xia Qin, the Strongest one, responded with pride.

For a Strongest one to utter a simple 'remarkable' was an extremely rare occurrence.

Yu Die, the Strongest one, specialized in the domain of illusory dreams, so her standards were higher than those of ordinary Strongest ones.

Her 'remarkable' was enough to astonish those of the same rank.

"When the Master of the Milky Way Star Domain breaks through, it will attract the infusion of the chaotic void's origin.

At that time, we will need to work together to isolate the spatial-temporal perception.

"Xia Qin, the Strongest one, said.

Isolating spatial-temporal perception refers to concealing the exact location where the chaotic void's origin is being infused into the main universe.

Even if other alien Strongest ones become aware, they will only know that someone in human civilization is undergoing the chaotic void's origin infusion.

As for the specific location, they won't be able to pinpoint it.

Isolating spatial-temporal perception is a common technique used by the Strongest ones.

The purpose is to confuse the eyes of other alien Strongest ones.

"No problem," Yu Die, the Strongest one, nodded.

Actually, Xia Qin, the Strongest one, could handle the spatial-temporal isolation alone.

But for the sake of caution, he still called upon Yu Die, the Strongest one....
