Chapter 625
🕑 Added 2025-08-13 04:00:03 +0000 UTCAmong the myriad Tao of rules, time and space are supreme. As for the Chaos rules?
When the world opened, Chaos rules evolved into myriad Tao of rules, so they are not included in this category.
As a Thirteenth Rank weapon, the small cauldron had long since transcended the realm of a mere weapon. It, too, contained a vast world within, with numerous Tao of rules in operation.
These operating Tao of rules were the owner's understanding of the Tao of rules for this small cauldron—
That is to say, the Tao of rules understood by that Thirteenth Rank Time existence were different from the Tao of rules of the Chaos Void.
Especially the way time and space intertwined within it, for Lin Yuan, it was an unprecedented revelation.
"So that's how it is."
The time and space in Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly became simple and orderly, as if tangled threads had been completely straightened out.
[Your Unrivaled Insight, observing the operation of world rules, has greatly increased your comprehension of time-space fusion rules.]
A vast amount of time-space comprehension converged, and Lin Yuan's eyes shone brightly, as if he had seen through the essence of countless time and space in the Chaos Void.
"The nine Ranks of time and space, this is the nine Ranks of time and space."
Lin Yuan was radiant. His comprehension of time and space had already reached the peak of the eighth Rank.
Now, through contact with the operation of time and space within the vast world of the small cauldron, he naturally entered the ninth Rank of time and space.
In the Chaos Void, the comprehension of time and space by those Chaos Great Saints generally remained at the eighth Rank.
As for the ninth Rank? That was exclusive to Supreme Saints, and only a small number of Supreme Saints, or indeed Invincible Supreme Saints who dominated an era, would reach the peak of the ninth Rank in their comprehension of time and space.
"No wonder Mysterious Sovereign's comprehension of time and space subtly seemed to transcend the ninth Rank during his final period..."
Lin Yuan thought of the way the Mysterious Sovereign's tomb was integrated into time and space. That method of utilizing time and space had reached an inconceivable level.
At least at that time, Lin Yuan couldn't comprehend it at all.
Thinking about it now, it should be what Mysterious Sovereign gained after comprehending this small cauldron.
Lin Yuan was able to gain great insights and push his time-space comprehension to the ninth Rank right at the beginning of his comprehension.
An Invincible Supreme Saint like Mysterious Sovereign, even if his insight was far inferior to Lin Yuan's, would eventually gain something by comprehending it for a longer period.
And once one reached the peak of the ninth Rank of time and space, every further step was incredibly difficult, but similarly, the improvement in mastery of time and space would also surge significantly.
Lin Yuan speculated that Mysterious Sovereign's ultimate attainment in time-space comprehension had already taken half a step beyond the ninth Rank.
"It's a pity that no matter how high one's time-space comprehension is, it's useless for breaking through the time loop. In fact, because of one's proficiency in time-space comprehension, the trials faced within the time loop will have nothing to do with time and space."
Lin Yuan thought to himself, this was one of the reasons why Mysterious Sovereign did not continue to comprehend the small cauldron.
If one could step into the Thirteenth Rank, with the surging of life essence, time-space comprehension would naturally reach beyond the ninth Rank.
"But I don't need to consider these now."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. One of the other reasons why Mysterious Sovereign hastily tried to break through to the Thirteenth Rank at that time was that the small cauldron was almost impossible to suppress anymore.
But now?
After being suppressed by Mysterious Sovereign for over thirty million cosmic eras, this small cauldron would not break free within the next hundred cosmic eras.
And a hundred cosmic eras?
Lin Yuan has only lived for about ten thousand years since his birth, even counting his transmigration time. If a cosmic era is a boundless ocean, then the time Lin Yuan has experienced is merely a drop of water, or even one-billionth of a drop.
From the Dominance Rank to the peak of the Chaos Rank, Mysterious Sovereign's expectation for Lin Yuan was to reach it within a hundred cosmic eras. This was based on the premise that he didn't know Lin Yuan's actual cultivation time.
Lin Yuan continued to comprehend the small cauldron.
In a trance, Lin Yuan vaguely saw a blurry, towering bald figure. Before him, more than a dozen weapons floated, and among them was a small cauldron.
As the small cauldron floated, an endless aura of power spread in all directions. Everything within the range of ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or even a million Void Domains was completely annihilated by the cauldron's power.
"That should be the mark left by the true owner of the small cauldron, a Thirteenth Rank Time existence."
Lin Yuan understood in his heart and naturally dared not touch it, fearing it would attract the attention of that Thirteenth Rank Time existence.
In fact, the reason why this Thirteenth Rank Time existence had not taken back the small cauldron for so long might not be that he had forgotten, but rather that the concept of time for a Thirteenth Rank Life is fundamentally different from that of a Twelfth Rank Life.
Thirty million cosmic eras? Three hundred million cosmic eras? Perhaps in the eyes of a Thirteenth Rank Time existence, it was just a blink of an eye.
A Thirteenth Rank Time existence can see through many future timelines. For them, perhaps they would only recall the small cauldron at a certain future point when they needed it.
As for what the small cauldron would experience during that time, or into whose hands it would fall, that Time existence simply didn't care much.
"Heavenly Void Cauldron?"
During his deeper comprehension of the small cauldron, Lin Yuan learned its name.
Heavenly Void Cauldron.
This was also an imprint remaining within the small cauldron, which could be discerned with a little comprehension.
"Is this a Thirteenth Rank Time existence?"
Lin Yuan's thoughts were very complex.
Just the lingering power naturally emitted by a Thirteenth Rank weapon could easily annihilate the range of hundreds of thousands to millions of Void Domains.
If that Thirteenth Rank Time existence were to exert full effort, wouldn't it be able to destroy almost half of the Chaos Void?
And this was just in terms of pure power. For a Thirteenth Rank Life, the most important point was their mastery of future timelines.
A Thirteenth Rank Life can see through various future timelines and then choose a predetermined timeline to follow. Of course, they would be influenced by the interference of other Thirteenth Rank Lives during this process.
The dimensional rift that Mysterious Sovereign experienced was a place where two Time Lifeforms acted. Perhaps at a crucial time node, the two Time Lifeforms fought fiercely for the future they desired.
For Time Lifeforms, all beings below the Thirteenth Rank are pawns; only a Time Lifeform at the same level are opponents, are the chess players.
Within his internal universe.
While comprehending the Heavenly Void Cauldron, Lin Yuan also separated a consciousness and descended into his internal universe.
"The root items of these mysterious places..."
Lin Yuan looked at the floating Life Godstone, Primordial Ore Crystal, Ninth Heaven Thunder Core, and so on.
"I'll ask senior to see if they can be integrated into my internal universe."
With a slight thought, Lin Yuan appeared beside the jade gourd and took out more than ten root items.
Although Lin Yuan had the idea of integrating these root items into his internal universe when he obtained them, he ultimately decided to ask the red-clothed girl for her opinion.
After all, she was a spirit created by a Thirteenth Rank Time existence, and she was specifically used to guide the Thirteenth Rank inheritance, "Infinite Void."
Through comprehending the Heavenly Void Cauldron, Lin Yuan gained a clear understanding of the power of a Thirteenth Rank Life, and he became even more aware of his own insignificance.
"These?"
The red-clothed girl's eyes widened when she saw the more than ten root items.
Root items are the foundation of a great mysterious place. The spirits of those mysterious places would never voluntarily throw them out.
Even an Invincible Supreme Saint who dominated an era would find it difficult to obtain a root item. The Life Godstone that Mysterious Sovereign obtained back then was not acquired through normal means, but rather 'stolen' at a certain opportune moment.
"What did you do? How did those guys hand over so many root items?"
The red-clothed girl was incredulous. Throughout the long years, past cultivators of "Infinite Void" had also reached the level of Invincible Supreme Saints.
They had naturally entered many mysterious places, but they never dared to push the spirits of those mysterious places too far.
After all, if they pushed them too hard, they would definitely seek help from the Time existence behind them. No Twelfth Rank being could bear such consequences, not even an Invincible Supreme Saint cultivating a Thirteenth Rank inheritance.
To make them honestly hand over these root items, one would need an enormous background and not fear the threat of a Thirteenth Rank Time existence. But if one truly had such a powerful backer, they wouldn't care about these root items in the first place.
"Just luck," Lin Yuan said.
He now roughly understood how Mysterious Sovereign had managed to meet those 'old friends.'
If Mysterious Sovereign was destined to perish, then forcibly entering a mysterious place naturally meant he wouldn't care about a Thirteenth Rank Time existence.
Anyway, he was going to die.
"Can they be integrated into my internal universe?"
Lin Yuan immediately asked. This was the question he was most concerned about.
"Yes."
"Of course, they can."
The red-clothed girl immediately jumped up. "These root items are not very meaningful for other peak Chaos Rank beings to integrate into their internal universe. At most, they would just form an environment similar to those mysterious places."
"Because the upper limit of their internal universe is fixed, they simply can't unleash the usefulness of these root items."
The red-clothed girl looked at Lin Yuan. "But you are different. Your internal universe is transforming towards the Chaos Void. Nurturing these root items in advance, allowing them to form mysterious places, will naturally bring great benefits, immense benefits."
The red-clothed girl clicked her tongue in wonder. "Originally, I planned to wait until you reached the peak of the Chaos Rank, or possessed the strength of an Invincible Supreme Saint, before trying to obtain these root items from those mysterious places."
"With your strength, growing to the peak of the Chaos Rank should surpass a normal Invincible Supreme Saint. At that time, going to those mysterious places, with coercion and temptation, there's a good chance of success."
"But now..."
The red-clothed girl looked at the root items in front of her.
She felt that she had underestimated Lin Yuan. He didn't need to wait until he reached the peak of the Chaos Rank at all.
"In that case, I'll start integrating them."
Lin Yuan immediately said.
"Go ahead."
The red-clothed girl nodded and looked at Lin Yuan: "I'm becoming more and more eager to see what level your internal universe will grow to, and whether it can reach the theoretical seventh layer..."
"The seventh layer of 'Infinite Void'?"
Lin Yuan's thoughts expanded. According to the creator of this inheritance, that Thirteenth Rank Time existence, the internal universe nurtured by the seventh layer of "Infinite Void" would be comparable to the Chaos Void, perhaps even on par with a Thirteenth Rank Time existence in terms of internal universe?
Of course, "on par" here was limited to the internal universe.
The internal universe was vast and mighty.
After his time-space comprehension reached the ninth Rank, Lin Yuan's internal universe once again underwent a frantic expansion.
Its diameter directly surged from a trillion light-years to eighteen trillion light-years.
It should be noted that Lin Yuan's internal universe had never been about sheer size; it focused on quality.
A universe spanning a trillion light-years was enough to shake internal universes spanning thousands of trillions or even tens of thousands of trillions of light-years.
Now, reaching eighteen trillion light-years, the immense improvement in its foundation and depth was unimaginable.
"Integrate."
Lin Yuan took out the Life Godstone.
This Life Godstone was only fist-sized, but vaguely, it was filled with a majestic aura of life, like an ocean.
Swoosh.
The Life Godstone was thrown out by Lin Yuan, and then the origin of the universe surged, rapidly devouring and integrating the stone.
Swoosh.
After integrating and absorbing the external Life Godstone, Lin Yuan vaguely felt that he could grasp a wisp of the most fundamental power of life.
"Gather."
Lin Yuan thought.
That wisp of the most fundamental power of life began to spread, vaguely forming a 'pond' composed entirely of life aura.
Lin Yuan looked down at the small pond. "The mysterious place 'Sea of Life' is vast and boundless, yet I've now formed a small pond with its root item?"
Lin Yuan didn't feel surprised. The Sea of Life was left behind by a Thirteenth Rank Time existence. Lin Yuan was inferior to a Time existence, so the mysterious place nurtured by the Life Godstone would certainly be far inferior to the former.
Of course, this inferiority was only temporary.
As Lin Yuan's strength increased and his internal universe continued to transform, these nurtured 'mysterious places' would also continue to grow.
Next.
Lin Yuan proceeded to integrate the Primordial Ore Crystal and the Ninth Heaven Thunder Core into his internal universe.
Numerous root items continuously evolved within Lin Yuan's internal universe, forming 'miniature' mysterious places.
"Void Golden Leaf?"
Lin Yuan looked at the last root item.
This root item came from a mysterious place called the Void Divine Tree. It was its core leaf, and it felt to Lin Yuan as if he was observing the Chaos Void itself.
"It's said that the Void Divine Tree connects heaven and earth, and a single leaf is the size of a Void Domain. This Void Golden Leaf is a leaf from the crown of the tree. Since ancient times, no Supreme Saint has ever touched it, nor has any related information or intelligence been passed down."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Lin Yuan ultimately chose to integrate all the root items that Mysterious Sovereign had obtained for him into his internal universe, not only because this would lead to the most direct and profound improvements for himself, but also for another reason: he didn't know what else these root items could be used for.
Trading?
Even a Supreme Saint would find it difficult to offer a price that could be exchanged for such a root item.
And if Lin Yuan were to rashly expose that he possessed these root items, it would also attract many troubles.
"Just integrate it directly."
Lin Yuan threw the Void Golden Leaf, and a large amount of universal origin power surged.
The Void Golden Leaf was rapidly integrated and absorbed, and strands of golden power containing infinite space immediately spread throughout the entire universe.

Thanks for the chapter!
Rome
I wonder, why not build them off each other? Dig a pound, use that all nurturing soil as a mount in the center, replant the chaos tree there and the leaf you just got and put the pond around it, maybe it will grow into a super tree, lol
