Chapter 618
🕑 Added 2025-08-06 04:00:02 +0000 UTC"Eye of Ten Thousand Laws, your creator is a great time lifeform."
Supreme Saint Yu Lin looked at the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws. "Precisely because of that, you can neither interfere in nor directly stop any karma or conflict within the Chaos Void."
"You can call in favors and ask other Supreme Saints to stop us—but for how long?" Yu Lin smiled.
Over countless eras, the Myriad Dao Pavilion had aided many promising cultivators, and a few of them had eventually become Supreme Saints.
But even so, to expect that past kindness to make them take a stand against him? Yu Lin didn’t believe any Supreme Saint would go that far.
Besides, Lin Yuan was right in front of him now—this physical body was already doomed. The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws could at most stop them from hunting down his other forms.
But only a Supreme Saint could stop him—and no Supreme Saint was likely to do so.
The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws remained silent.
It was true.
It was a special entity, connected to a thirteenth-rank time lifeform, and held a unique status in the Chaos Void. No Supreme Saint dared provoke it lightly.
Even near-Invincible Supreme Saints like the Mysterious Sovereign or the master of Devil Jade Tower had avoided offending it.
But it was still not a true time lifeform, and thus lacked true deterrent power.
At most, Supreme Saints respected it—but they didn’t fear it.
"Leave."
Supreme Saint Hun Xiao spoke. He didn’t wish to fully offend the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws either, but Lin Yuan—a remnant of the Mysterious Lineage—would not be spared.
With Lin Yuan's strength, even if he never became a Supreme Saint, once Hun Xiao and Yu Lin attempted to break through to the thirteenth rank, Lin Yuan could easily strike at their bloodlines and clans.
They had lived through countless cosmic eras. While their loved ones were long gone, their bloodlines and clans still endured.
"Yu Lin, Hun Xiao... I’ll remember this."
The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws disappeared from the spot.
At the same time—
In the Star Tear Fragment World—
The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws looked at Lin Yuan. "Milky Way, there’s nothing I can do."
He sighed. Although he had already predicted that the two Supreme Saints probably wouldn’t listen...
Now that it had played out, he still felt a little helpless.
"But with me around, they can at most destroy your physical body in the Mysterious Emperor Universe. As for all your other forms—they’re dreaming."
The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws sneered.
"I know several mysterious and hidden places that can isolate karma and time. Aside from me, no living being— not even an Invincible Supreme Saint—can enter."
He said, "Go prepare. Bring your clansmen and friends. I’ll teleport you there."
The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws couldn’t interfere directly in the conflicts of the Chaos Void, but he could influence them indirectly.
Like now—if the two Supreme Saints wanted to hunt down Lin Yuan’s true forms, he could simply send Lin Yuan to a place they couldn’t reach.
Then they’d be powerless.
"Thank you."
Lin Yuan’s tone was slightly grateful.
In truth, even without the Eye’s help, he had ways to protect his soul avatars.
The safest method was to place all of human civilization into a micro-world, then use the Gate of Myriad Realms to descend into another dimensional world.
As long as no one left the micro-world, the inhabitants wouldn’t even notice anything had changed. And once Lin Yuan grew strong enough to crush those two Supreme Saints, he could bring them all back.
But that method involved crossing dimensions—and risked exposing the Gate of Myriad Realms.
Unless absolutely necessary, Lin Yuan didn’t want to take that step.
Until now, he had never let anyone else come into contact with the Gate.
"No need to thank me."
"I’m also doing this for myself," said the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws. "If you died at Yu Lin’s hands, wouldn’t all my effort in spreading the path of martial evolution to you be wasted?"
He clearly had his own motives for helping Lin Yuan.
First, he had high hopes for Lin Yuan—believing that, if he grew smoothly, he would at least become an Invincible Supreme Saint.
Second, he had already invested quite a bit into Lin Yuan and wasn’t about to watch him get crushed.
Mysterious Emperor Universe.
Yu Lin and Hun Xiao looked down at Lin Yuan.
"I’m curious—what did you find in this universe? Did Mysterious Sovereign leave anything about us?"
Yu Lin asked.
Now that the entire Mysterious Emperor Universe was under their control, they had time to spare.
"Nothing."
Lin Yuan answered as he observed the two Supreme Saints.
Inside the Mysterious Sovereign’s tomb were countless murals, depicting his rise from obscurity to commanding the Chaos Void.
But not once had Lin Yuan seen a single record of Yu Lin or Hun Xiao.
If the tomb spirit hadn’t told him that the Mysterious Sovereign had destroyed thirty-nine of their bodies before his breakthrough attempt...
Lin Yuan wouldn’t have even known of their existence.
"Nothing?"
"Mysterious Sovereign didn’t leave a word about us?"
Yu Lin’s expression darkened. Hun Xiao’s face did as well.
The implication was clear: the Mysterious Sovereign had never considered them worthy of mention.
Realizing this, the two Supreme Saints’ auras began to stir.
"Now’s the time."
Lin Yuan took a step forward.
The space-time around him twisted—it was the Mysterious Lineage’s secret escape art: Steps Through Time and Space.
Faced with two Supreme Saints, Lin Yuan had no thought of fighting. Escape was the only goal.
"Steps Through Time and Space?"
Yu Lin shook his head. "We’ve hunted enough disciples of the Mysterious Lineage—we already have methods to counter that escape art."
As he finished speaking—
The space-time around Lin Yuan began to shift. His control over time and space rapidly weakened.
"The first step already failed?"
Lin Yuan thought to himself, glancing at the two Supreme Saints.
"In that case—fight to the death."
His eyes burned with battle intent. His outer universe roared to life.
"Hmm?"
Yu Lin was surprised. "You’re not a Supreme Saint, yet your domain forces the great Dao to retreat. Impressive."
"The more you impress me..." Hun Xiao’s voice grew cold, "the more I want to kill you."
The stronger Lin Yuan appeared, the deeper their killing intent grew.
Rumble—
Hun Xiao struck, a palm smashing toward Lin Yuan’s outer universe.
Outside the Mysterious Emperor Universe—
In the twisted space-time, the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws and other special entities had not yet left.
"Eye of Ten Thousand Laws, what did you do in there?"
The broken saber glanced at him.
They had sensed a trace of the Eye entering.
"Nothing much. Just tried to take someone out."
"Take someone out?"
"You got rejected by Hun Xiao?"
"Mm."
The Eye nodded.
"Hmph!"
"Ants trapped in the time cycle... they only act tough now." The broken saber shook its head.
As a being similar to the Eye, it naturally stood opposed to the Supreme Saints.
"Hmm?"
Just then, the spirit of the ancient altar showed a hint of surprise. "They’re fighting in there?"
Within the Mysterious Emperor Universe, waves of vast space-time trembled—like two ancient beasts battling underwater, stirring unseen tides.
Deep within the Mysterious Emperor Universe—
Lin Yuan went all out, activating his outer universe to face Hun Xiao.
With the power of the Sunborn Genesis, the second layer of Infinite Void, and the Heart of Dark Heaven, among others...
His internal universe was already stronger than that of a typical Supreme Saint.
But a Supreme Saint’s strength was far more than just their internal universe—and Hun Xiao was no ordinary Supreme Saint.
"I can’t win."
Lin Yuan’s heart sank.
Though he could barely hold his ground now, he knew it was temporary. With time, he would be completely suppressed.
"Detonate the outer universe?"
He considered it, and looked toward Yu Lin.
But he didn’t hold much hope.
If it were just Hun Xiao, detonating his universe might create a chance to escape.
But with both Supreme Saints present?
Even that would be futile.
"If I’m going to lose this body, I’ll at least destroy all the treasures and rare items first."
He made up his mind. While he couldn’t destroy Supreme Saint-level weapons, he could eliminate the rest.
Suddenly—
He sensed something.
Within his internal universe, the Mysterious Sovereign’s tomb appeared—and the tomb spirit emerged.
"Can you hold off Hun Xiao and Yu Lin?" it asked.
"Probably not," Lin Yuan answered truthfully. If Hun Xiao were willing to pay any price, he’d already have lost.
"...Sigh," the tomb spirit fell silent.
If Lin Yuan couldn’t hold out, everything in the Mysterious Emperor Universe would fall into the hands of the Sovereign’s enemies.
Especially the three life-bound weapons—and that one...
"That bead... crush it," the tomb spirit said bitterly, as if finally deciding something.
"Crush the bead?" Lin Yuan frowned. "Wouldn’t that summon the Sovereign’s treasure?"
He remembered the tomb spirit saying that once the bead was crushed, the treasure the Sovereign had obtained from a dimensional rift would arrive.
A treasure so important, he had attempted the thirteenth rank early just to protect it.
"It doesn’t matter. Just do it."
The tomb spirit vanished.
Outside—
Lin Yuan hesitated.
But since the spirit said so...
He didn’t delay, taking out the dark yellow bead.
It was round and smooth, swirling with Mysterious Emperor colors and faint time energy.
Swish.
The bead appeared in Lin Yuan’s hand.
"What is that?"
Hun Xiao and Yu Lin saw it, and in that instant, felt something.
The next moment—
Lin Yuan clenched the bead and squeezed.
Crack.
A clear sound.
Time seemed to freeze.
As the bead shattered—
Threads of time began to converge.
Scenes formed within space-time, looping endlessly.
Within those scenes—
Was a grand celestial palace, towering halls and divine buildings. At the top, a throne.
A man sat there, resting his head on his right hand, seemingly asleep.
But as the bead broke—
The man stirred.
He slowly opened his eyes.
Buzz—
He vanished from the throne.
In the Mysterious Emperor Universe—
Beside Lin Yuan—
A majestic, towering man had appeared without a sound.
His body radiated golden light. Perhaps of all the Saint-level beings in the countless cosmic eras of the Chaos Void, none exuded more imperial presence.
He stood silently at Lin Yuan’s side, hands behind his back. He didn’t even look at Hun Xiao and Yu Lin—only glanced at Lin Yuan.
"You...?"
Hun Xiao and Yu Lin’s hearts trembled violently.
They nearly turned and fled.
