Luo Chuan SettlementThe Luo Chuan Settlement was bustling with people, full of life and activity.
Compared to over a hundred years ago, the settlement had grown incredibly prosperous, many times more than before.
Lin Yuan sat in front of a tavern, eating large chunks of fierce beast leg meat.
In this two-dimensional world, there was no force or energy from the heavens and earth.
The only way to replenish energy was to eat.
"In just a hundred years, so much has changed.
"Lin Yuan continued to eat, swallowing all the meat and feeling quite emotional.
One or two hundred years ago, the Twelve Ancient Kingdoms ruled vast lands and were the absolute sovereigns.
But ever since the powerful beings from the myriad races descended, the dominance of the Twelve Ancient Kingdoms had been continuously shaken.
Ninety-four years ago, a strong being from the main universe entered the capital of one of the ancient kingdoms, attacking seven times, entering and exiting freely.
The many powerful beings of the ancient kingdom were helpless against them.
Since then, the other ancient kingdoms became much more subdued.
The strong beings from the myriad races did not behave excessively; they only took away the national treasures of the ancient kingdoms, items like the bronze compass or the blood-colored long knife.
These strong beings had no interest in ruling this two-dimensional world.
Their goal was clear: to increase their strength.
They sought to enhance their power by any means, so that when the Heavenly Gate opened, they could be the last ones standing and return to the main universe.
"A hundred and twenty-three years ago, more than a hundred million strong beings from the myriad races descended upon this world.
""But now, although there is no exact count, the number of those still alive should be no more than a million.
"Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
In the initial wave, more than half of the strong beings from the myriad races perished.
In the following years, with the constant battles among themselves, their numbers dwindled sharply.
"In a hundred years of cultivation, ignoring worldly affairs, my strength has long since advanced to the level of a Witch Ancestor.
"Eighty-seven years ago, Lin Yuan had already broken through to the level of Witch Ancestor.
As for his current stage, according to the explorations of the strong beings from the main universe beyond the Witch Ancestor stage...
The Witch Ancestor level was divided into three stages: the first stage, the second stage, and the third stage.
These corresponded to the early stage, middle stage, and peak of the Witch Ancestor level.
By this classification, Lin Yuan was now at the eighteenth stage of the Witch Ancestor level.
Based on the standard of three stages constituting a major level, Lin Yuan had surpassed the Witch Ancestor level by five major levels.
"With my current strength, even if I can't match the Four Divine Kings, I'm not far behind.
Give me another hundred years, and I should surpass them.
"Lin Yuan thought to himself.
In theory, in two hundred years, his strength should far exceed that of the Four Divine Kings.
But Lin Yuan wasn't entirely at ease.
Even now, with nearly a million strong beings from the myriad races still alive, who knew if there were others like him who had secretly been improving their strength, waiting for the final battle when the Heavenly Gate opens?
The Four Divine Kings were known as the strongest among the myriad races, but could there be others, like Lin Yuan, who were quietly preparing to compete in the final battle?
Moreover, the influence of unique items also had to be considered.
A single powerful artifact could elevate a strong being's power by several levels.
For example, Hou Zhu from the Prison Clan, who wasn't particularly outstanding among the eleventh-rank beings, became a super-strong being second only to the Four Divine Kings by wielding a blood-colored long knife.
"Take it slow.
Even if I miss this opening of the Heavenly Gate, there's always next time.
" Lin Yuan wasn't in a hurry.
His comprehension of the Changqing cultivation method had granted him an extraordinarily long lifespan.
If it doesn't work out this time, there's always the next.
He was determined not to take any unnecessary risks.
"In recent decades, it's become common for groups of strong beings from the myriad races to join forces, searching all over for 'unique items' hidden in various corners.
"Lin Yuan frowned slightly.
"If they find other strong beings from the myriad races, they'll eliminate them if they can.
"This was normal behavior, clearing the field, as all strong beings from the myriad races were essentially competitors vying for a spot when the Heavenly Gate opened in two hundred years.
It was perfectly normal to eliminate irrelevant competitors in advance.
While the Heavenly Gate would open again in ten thousand and two hundred years, most strong beings from the myriad races probably wouldn't survive that long.
Not every strong being could easily comprehend methods to extend their lifespan like Lin Yuan.
And even if they could survive until the next opening, wouldn't there still be competition?
Of course, clearing the field was just a side effect; the real purpose of these strong beings was to obtain 'unique items.
'In this two-dimensional world, these 'unique items' could only exert a tiny fraction of their power, but in the main universe, they were considered twelve-star treasures and rare weapons.
Even beings as powerful as the Four Divine Kings, who had reached the pinnacle of the eleventh rank, found it difficult to obtain such treasures.
And now, these treasures were within reach even for eighth or ninth-rank beings.
How could the strong beings from the myriad races not go crazy?
Moreover, these 'unique items' weren't just valuable in the main universe; they also had significant effects in this two-dimensional world.
In the past hundred years, there had been instances where a strong being from the myriad races, using a single attack-type 'unique item,' had killed dozens of others at the same level.
"Even if I don't make it out in the end, as long as someone from my race does, they can take all the unique items I've collected out of here.
" Lin Yuan thought to himself.
In this way, even if a clone perished here and the original body suffered some loss, it wouldn't be a total waste, as they would still bring out a twelve-star treasure.
The strongest ones in the clan would surely reward them.
"Unique items?
"Lin Yuan pondered.
Over the past hundred years, he had focused on deep cultivation, and the farthest he had traveled was to Dongyuan City.
He hadn't made much progress in collecting unique items.
So far, the only unique item he possessed was that bronze compass.
"I should consider getting a unique item for myself if the opportunity arises.
"Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Even with a unique item, the enhancement to his strength would be limited.
With his current power, even strong beings at the thirteenth or fifteenth stage of the Witch Ancestor level, holding unique items, wouldn't be his match.
At the Xiayou Evolution Tower.
A wisp of Lin Yuan's incarnation sat there, sensing the extreme light from beyond the universe.
Over a year ago, Lin Yuan's Yin Primordial Spirit arrived, and shortly after, left an incarnation and departed.
Sensing the extreme light from beyond the universe required only a single incarnation.
After all, there was no danger involved.
As for the Yin Primordial Spirit, Lin Yuan immediately sent it to other large alien battlefields to continue absorbing and accumulating the source power needed to transmigrate.
[Your unrivaled insight deepens your understanding of light rules as you observe the unknown extreme light.
][Your unrivaled insight deepens your understanding of causal rules as you observe the unknown extreme light.
][Your unrivaled insight allows you to comprehend the rule of causal fluctuations while observing the unknown extreme light.
]"Causal fluctuation rule?
" A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.
This fusion rule encompassed space rules, light rules, causal rules, and other rules.
While it wasn't particularly strong in direct combat, it had unimaginable effects in support roles.
"Causal fluctuations?
Causal lines?
If I'm willing to pay the price, I can erase the 'cause' of a certain being, and the 'effect' that follows will also disappear?
"Lin Yuan was amazed.
"This disappearance is a complete one, even the strongest can't revive them?
""However, the cost is quite high, and it requires sufficient 'medium'.
" Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
Anything involving causal rules always demanded a price.
Causal curses required a cost, and now causal fluctuation lines also needed a price.
"With my current life level, I can erase the cause and effect of beings at the sixth rank or below" Lin Yuan wondered.
"Let's continue observing.
"After pondering for a moment, Lin Yuan resumed his observation of the distant extreme light.
Back in the two-dimensional world.
Lin Yuan was cultivating.
At that moment, Cha Ran Gu hurried over.
"Master, we've received word from the Blood Rain Tavern that recently there have been frequent signs of fierce battles in the ancient kingdom of Blood Rain," Cha Ran Gu reported quickly.
"Signs of fierce battles?
"Lin Yuan's heart stirred slightly.
If the Blood Rain Tavern was alarmed enough to relay this message through Cha Ran Gu, the battles must have been extremely intense.
"Are those powerful beings from the myriad races beginning to search the Blood Rain Ancient Kingdom for unique items and, in the process, killing the ordinary strong beings from the myriad races hidden there to clear the field before the Heavenly Gate opens in two hundred years?
"Lin Yuan speculated.
With that thought, Lin Yuan's true self in the main universe quickly connected to the virtual world, entering the shared information network established for human civilization's evolvers trapped in the two-dimensional world.
He began to search for information.
This shared information network regularly provided intelligence about the two-dimensional world and was the primary source of information for human civilization's evolvers.
Before long, Lin Yuan found some relevant information.
Six months ago in the two-dimensional world, a group of special beings led by the ancient god Tuoba began to search the Blood Rain Ancient Kingdom for unique items.
The human civilization evolver who posted this information also issued a warning: Tuoba the Ancient God's strength was formidable, and the special beings accompanying him were at least at the tenth stage of the Witch Ancestor level.
If any human evolvers were hiding in the Blood Rain Ancient Kingdom, they should escape immediately.
Otherwise, if Tuoba the Ancient God and his special beings discovered them, it would be too late to escape.
So far, Tuoba the Ancient God and the other special beings had allied with the Starry Sky Alliance, and they would not stop because of any deterrent from human civilization.
"Tuoba the Ancient God?
"Lin Yuan continued to search for the latest information about this ancient god.
A hundred years ago, Tuoba the Ancient God ranked twelfth among the strong beings from the myriad races.
Even if his ranking had slightly declined over the years, he still remained in the top twenty.
His true strength was likely around the twelfth stage of the Witch Ancestor level.
It was worth noting that Tuoba the Ancient God possessed a defensive-type unique item, which was his greatest source of confidence.
"A defensive-type unique item?
" Lin Yuan felt a little tempted.
Not to mention that this defensive unique item, when brought back to the main universe, would be a twelve-star rare weapon.
Even in this two-dimensional world, possessing a defensive unique item would greatly enhance Lin Yuan's survival capabilities, significantly increasing his margin for error.
"Little 'god', it's time to settle old and new scores together.
" Lin Yuan stood up and vanished from where he stood....
