Chapter Summary

Only half a day had passed.
Lin Yuan had already condensed nine scorching sun seeds.
He returned to the level the original body had reached after hundreds of years of effort.
“No change.
”Lin Yuan observed the nine scorching sun seeds inside himself.
“It must be because I already condensed nine scorching sun seeds before.
Even though later on they collapsed, my realm remained.
So now, even if I’ve recovered nine seeds, there’s nothing noticeably different.
”Lin Yuan mulled over this in his heart.
“In that case, let me start working on the tenth scorching sun seed.
”Lin Yuan continued his cultivation.
Though there was only a one-seed difference between nine and ten, it was like an impassable chasm.
The difficulty was enormous.
The original body had apparently been stuck at nine for a long time and never formed the tenth scorching sun seed.
When it came to condensing scorching sun seeds, the first one was the easiest, the tenth one was hard, and the hundredth one was the hardest.
Two hours later.
The tenth scorching sun seed slowly took shape.
“Huh?
”Lin Yuan’s expression shifted slightly.
The ten scorching sun seeds within his body slowly rotated, resonating with the world outside, and all at once, an even more intense flow of the rules of heaven and earth surged toward him.
The rules of the source world already differed in many ways from what was described by the Chaos Void, and this had a huge impact on Lin Yuan.
Now the rule fluctuations were ten times stronger, and Lin Yuan was almost forced into a state of “enlightenment.
”“So that’s the use of the scorching sun seeds?
”Lin Yuan steadied himself, feeling somewhat astonished.
Enhancing perception of rule fluctuations?
Even if that wasn’t quite the same as directly raising one’s insight, it was still extremely powerful.
Insight worked in all areas.
For instance, Lin Yuan’s Unrivaled Insight not only surpassed other beings in understanding rules but could produce marvelous effects in all sorts of things.
Learning abilities?
Creative abilities, and so on?
Even so, directly enhancing perception of rule fluctuations was extremely rare.
In the main universe, some special lifeforms were innately better at understanding certain rules than others, but that was a natural-born talent.
Some treasures or elixirs could increase one’s perception of certain rules, but usually for a limited time, and such precious items were incredibly rare.
As for treasures that permanently boosted one’s perception of particular rules?
Those did exist, but they were so sought-after that even Chaos Venerables and Chaos Great Saints would fight tooth and nail for them.
And now?
In the Liyang Ancient Kingdom, anyone could cultivate the “Liyang Nurturing Spirit Method,” which somehow produced a similar effect?
And if ten scorching sun seeds already increased rule perception by ten times, what about twenty?
Thirty?
“The scorching sun seeds, and this world, this source world...
” Lin Yuan’s face grew a little serious.
Ten scorching sun seeds floated within him, faintly communicating with the outside world, making Lin Yuan something like the “favored child” of the rule operations.
Hence this degree of increased rule perception.
“With the enhancement of ten scorching sun seeds, I’ll only need about a thousand years to reach the peak of the seventh level of time and space.
”Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Originally, he had estimated that reaching the seventh-level peak would require at least tens of thousands of years.
Of course, tens of thousands of years was already extremely short.
For those at the twelfth rank—Path-Clearing or Dominance—a brief nap might last tens of thousands of years, and going from mid-seventh level to the peak might not be done in several cosmic epochs.
“No matter what, even if this Liyang Nurturing Spirit Method has hidden risks, the rule perception is undeniably real.
I’ll keep condensing scorching sun seeds.
If worst comes to worst, I’ll just abandon this body.
”Lin Yuan made up his mind.
Even the most ordinary person, if they formed ten scorching sun seeds, would become a genius in rule comprehension; how much more so for Lin Yuan, who possessed Unrivaled Insight?
The combination of the two far surpassed the effect of simple addition.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to continue cultivating to form more scorching sun seeds, his expression suddenly changed.
He looked outside the cave dwelling.
“Ah Yan, how are you doing now?
” came a man’s voice, none other than Yu Chao Long, the father of the original body Yu Yan and also the head of the Yu Family.
Yu Chao Long had the complete power of the eleventh rank and had already purchased a fitting path for himself from the Liyang Ancient Kingdom.
He could step into the Ji Dao realm at any time.
“I’m fine.
”Lin Yuan rose and opened the cave dwelling’s doors.
Outside stood his father, Yu Chao Long, and his mother, both wearing expressions of deep concern.
“That’s good.
” Yu Chao Long studied Lin Yuan’s face and exhaled slightly, then said angrily, “That girl from the Dongyang Family is truly vicious.
In order to become a disciple of Qingfen Marquis, she’d do something like this.
”“Yes.
”His mother looked at Lin Yuan.
No one else in the family knew about the relationship between the original Yu Yan and Dongyang Meng, not even Yu Chao Long, but his mother did.
“It’s all in the past.
”Lin Yuan smiled faintly.
Everything the original body had gone through stemmed from the Dongyang Family, from Dongyang Meng.
But Lin Yuan wasn’t particularly concerned.
At most, when his strength was sufficient, he would crush the entire Dongyang Family underfoot.
“I’ve already told your maternal grandfather about this.
I’m sure he’ll stand up for you,” his mother Wei Chi Ling said.
The Wei Chi Family was a first-tier family in the Qingfen Domain.
Although it had declined, it still had great influence.
The Dongyang Family’s ambush on Lin Yuan, using any means for their goal—if word reached Qingfen Marquis, he might strip the Dongyang Family of its admission quota.
That was the only thing the Yu Family could do at present.
Lin Yuan was harmed by the Dongyang Family’s black amulet power, causing several scorching sun seeds to collapse, and combined with his internal injuries, he wouldn’t be able to form new scorching sun seeds for decades.
Under such circumstances, his qualification to be admitted under Qingfen Marquis was basically gone.
Even if, in the end, Qingfen Marquis despised the Dongyang Family’s actions and canceled their quota, he still wouldn’t accept Lin Yuan.
That much was settled.
“As for the Dongyang Family, leave them to us.
You just focus on your recovery,” Yu Chao Long said.
The Dongyang Family had lost their only rival, the Yu Family, but they hadn’t yet become a first-tier family, so the Yu Family would seize the opportunity to strike.
“Actually...
there’s no need to battle the Dongyang Family to the death,” Lin Yuan said after some thought.
Both the Yu Family and the Dongyang Family were second-tier families of nearly equal power.
A fierce fight would just be mutual destruction.
To Lin Yuan, it was unnecessary.
At his rate of growth, he’d soon outstrip the Dongyang Family by a wide margin.
Then dealing with them would be a mere flick of the hand.
Lin Yuan did feel some concern for the Yu Family after inheriting Yu Yan’s memories.
At least he didn’t want to see them die pointlessly.
“Not fight the Dongyang Family?
”“After what they did to you, son, I can’t let it go.
” Yu Chao Long’s eyes narrowed.
“I’ve already discussed this with the old ancestors.
The Dongyang Family must pay.
”Lin Yuan heard this but did not keep trying to talk them out of it.
He couldn’t exactly say that before long, he’d grow strong enough to crush the Dongyang Family himself.
To Yu Chao Long, that would sound like a foolish boast.
The Yu Family had endured for countless millennia, staying on par with the Dongyang Family.
“I need some cultivation resources,” Lin Yuan said.
Practicing martial arts demanded a lot of resources.
With the Yu Family’s channels, at least during the early stages, he wouldn’t need to gather them on his own.
As for mid and late stages?
Once his strength recovered enough that he could defend himself, just revealing a bit of what he could do would make people bring him plenty of resources.
“These resources...
no problem.
” Yu Chao Long showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, then nodded.
“Well, we’ll head off now.
If you need anything, let me know at any time.
” After speaking, Yu Chao Long left with Wei Chi Ling.
Lin Yuan watched them disappear.
He continued forming scorching sun seeds.
[Your Unrivaled Insight lets you cultivate the “Liyang Nurturing Spirit Method,” forming the twentieth scorching sun seed][Your Unrivaled Insight lets you cultivate the “Liyang Nurturing Spirit Method,” forming the thirtieth scorching sun seed]Outside the cave dwelling,Yu Chao Long and Wei Chi Ling were sitting across from each other.
“Are you sure your Wei Chi Family can stir this up enough that it reaches Qingfen Marquis?
” Yu Chao Long asked.
After all, the Wei Chi Family had fallen far from its prime; otherwise, Wei Chi Ling wouldn’t have married into the Yu Family.
“It can get that far, and even if Qingfen Marquis doesn’t hear of it, his followers will.
But even if he knows, most likely he won’t take any action against the Dongyang Family.
”Wei Chi Ling shook her head.
From the lofty perspective of Qingfen Marquis, only the outcome mattered.
As for the process?
So what if they ambushed a competitor?
“So just now...
” Yu Chao Long blinked.
“I was just comforting my son,” Wei Chi Ling said, rolling her eyes at Yu Chao Long.
“I see.
” Yu Chao Long nodded.
“It’s a pity that in the end, our son only formed nine scorching sun seeds.
If he had been able to form the tenth, he wouldn’t even have needed to compete with the Dongyang Family.
He would have directly become a disciple of Qingfen Marquis.
”Wei Chi Ling sighed.
Nine scorching sun seeds and ten scorching sun seeds were two entirely different concepts.
If one could form ten scorching sun seeds before the age of five hundred, even Qingfen Marquis, exalted as he was, would pay closer attention.
Such a talent, if they were struck down in an ambush, would definitely draw Qingfen Marquis’s wrath, and he would punish the faction responsible.
In other words, if Yu Yan had condensed ten scorching sun seeds, he could have walked openly into the Dongyang Family and come back out unscathed.
“Ah Yan...
maybe we should find time to comfort him more.
” Yu Chao Long thought about it.
The black amulet’s power had injured him, shattering several of his scorching sun seeds, and the damage meant he wouldn’t be able to form new ones for decades.
In Yu Chao Long’s view, Lin Yuan’s potential was likely greatly reduced.
“When was the last time a genius in the Qingfen Domain formed ten scorching sun seeds before five hundred years old?
”Wei Chi Ling shook her head.
The reason the Wei Chi Family once rose to prominence was that they produced someone who achieved ten scorching sun seeds under five hundred years of age.
“Don’t dwell on it.
Even if Ah Yan never forms ten scorching sun seeds, he’s still our son.
”Yu Chao Long said.
Time passed.
A few months went by in a flash.
