Lin Yuan looked solemnly towards the Source World coordinates deep within the Gate of Myriad Realms.
"Now if I want to transmigrate, I no longer need to expend Boundary-breaking Source Power."
Lin Yuan thought to himself that since ascending to the twelfth rank, his life essence had undergone a leap, not only eliminating the need for Boundary-breaking Source Power when transmigrating to worlds he had already descended into.
Even for worlds he had not yet transmigrated to, no Boundary-breaking Source Power was needed.
All he needed was the correct world coordinates.
"It seems that in the past, the Boundary-breaking Source Power used for transmigration was to protect my True Spirit Consciousness," Lin Yuan speculated.
After ascending to the twelfth rank, his life essence was strong enough, and so was his True Spirit Consciousness, eliminating the need for additional protection from the Gate of Myriad Realms, thus saving some Boundary-breaking Source Power.
"I'd better choose to transmigrate using my True Spirit Consciousness," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Transmigrating with True Spirit Will has the sole flaw of a period of weakness.
But this flaw had been largely compensated for since Lin Yuan ascended to the twelfth rank.
"A period of weakness? At worst, just return directly to the Gate of Myriad Realms and continue with the next transmigration."
After all, no Boundary-breaking Source Power needed to be expended.
And now, Lin Yuan's use of Boundary-breaking Source Power meant that even if he encountered some danger during the period of weakness, he could fend it off.
Minor dangers could be avoided with the help of Boundary-breaking Source Power.
For major dangers, he wouldn't have to resist; he could simply abandon and begin the next transmigration.
As for his true body? It was stationed in the cosmic starry sky, ensuring its safety beyond doubt.
Especially while in the Mysterious Emperor's Secret Realm, even if the universe were to collapse, Lin Yuan could ignore it.
"Let's begin."
Lin Yuan immediately allocated a portion of his True Spirit Will to surge into the Gate of Myriad Realms.
After ascending to the twelfth rank, Lin Yuan could transmigrate without all of his True Spirit Will flowing in; a portion sufficed. This also meant that his body in the transmigrated world and his body in the cosmic starry sky could operate simultaneously.
In addition, he could utilize numerous other avatars.
"Hmm?"
"Nearly one-third of the True Spirit Will?"
Lin Yuan gazed at the Gate of Myriad Realms. At this moment, a small portion of his True Spirit Will surged into the Gate of Myriad Realms, descending upon that Source World, preparing to integrate.
In a daze.
Lin Yuan's slumbering consciousness began to awaken.
"Young master, don't die, please don't die, don't die! It's all my fault. If I hadn't been careless and left, this wouldn't have happened to you."
"The Dongyang family, if something has really happened to the young master, even if the lord and madam can bear it, I won't spare you!"
"We're almost there, almost home. Once we reach home, young master, you'll be saved."
Lin Yuan's consciousness faintly sensed spatial fluctuation from the outside, clearly indicating that someone was leading him through large-scale spatial transmigration.
"The fiefdom of the Qingfen Marquis in the Qingfen Domain? The Qingfen Marquis is a high-level existence, a Marquis of the Liyang Ancient Kingdom, with terrifying strength. I am the most promising disciple of the Yu Family, competing with the Dongyang Family for the Qingfen Marquis disciple quota. The Dongyang Family, in order to join the Qingfen Marquis's ranks, secretly attacked me."
Lin Yuan quickly absorbed a large amount of memories into his mind, understanding his current predicament.
Whether it's the Yu Family or the Dongyang Family, both are only second-class families in the Qingfen Domain. If they could establish a connection with the Qingfen Marquis, they could at least hope to be promoted to a first-class family.
And a first-class family means a lot of resources and status.
"Dongyang Meng" – a stunning figure flashed in Lin Yuan's mind.
The Yu Family and the Dongyang Family were competing for the Qingfen Marquis disciple quota. The Yu Family's best hope was the original host, while the Dongyang Family had Dongyang Meng.
In fact, the original host and Dongyang Meng had a good relationship in secret; the original host even admired Dongyang Meng.
At this time, when the competition between the two families was at its peak, logically, the original host should have hidden within the family to prevent any accidents.
But Dongyang Meng contacted him, wanting to meet and claiming to have a way to ease the relationship between the two families and resolve the current tense situation between the Yu and Dongyang Families.
"So, your so-called method is to eliminate me?"
A thought flashed in Lin Yuan's mind – the last thought that emerged from the original host.
Upon knowing that Dongyang Meng wanted to meet, the original host, ignoring everything else, secretly slipped out of the family, bringing only an old servant.
Then, he met Dongyang Meng. To keep their conversation private, he even dismissed the old servant.
However, what awaited the original host were Dongyang Family experts who had been lying in ambush on the side.
If it weren't for the original host carrying numerous life-preserving measures, and the old servant quickly returning upon sensing something wrong, he would have been killed long ago.
"My physical body and soul," Lin Yuan felt his current state.
At this moment, his physical body and soul were being eroded by a dark force, rapidly weakening.
However, deep within his physical body and soul, there was still a vibrant force supporting him, though the latter was clearly retreating step by step.
"If nothing unexpected happens, within at most five breaths, the original host's soul and physical body would be completely annihilated."
"What should I do?"
Lin Yuan felt somewhat helpless.
Having just transmigrated, he hadn't set up any defenses and had no means to resist the continuously eroding dark force.
As for the spiritual will? It also requires a sufficiently strong physical body and soul to bear it in order to exert its power, and the spiritual will cannot directly resist that dark erosive force.
"Now."
Lin Yuan pondered.
He now had two choices.
First, directly abandon and have this descending portion of consciousness return to the main universe.
However, doing so would be equivalent to wasting this transmigration opportunity. Although Lin Yuan could transmigrate to the Source World without expending Boundary-breaking Source Power, there was a 'cooling period.'
One could only descend once every 333 years.
By abandoning this opportunity, Lin Yuan would have to wait 333 years for the next descent.
The second choice was to use Boundary-breaking Source Power to resist that dark force.
Lin Yuan didn't need to completely eliminate the dark force; he only needed to hold out until he could return to the Yu Family, at which point the Yu Family's strong members would come to rescue him.
"To temporarily fend off this dark force, a hundred strands of Boundary-breaking Source Power are needed."
In a flash, Lin Yuan's thoughts raced, beginning to make a choice.
"Enough, the identity for this transmigration is good; at least, I don't need to worry about cultivation resources in the early stages," Lin Yuan pondered for just a breath's duration and made a decision.
He was the Yu Family's most outstanding disciple, and his parents were high-ranking and influential in the Yu Family. Such a starting point of identity was quite rare.
It could allow Lin Yuan to avoid many detours in the early stages.
A second-class family in the Qingfen Domain, though not core upper echelon, still dominated a region, giving Lin Yuan the qualification to invest himself there.
"That's only a hundred strands of Boundary-breaking Source Power."
Lin Yuan's thoughts stirred slightly, and an invisible force began to emerge within his body. This force rapidly suppressed and slowed the dark erosive force, making its erosion speed even slower, thus extending Lin Yuan's survival time.
Most importantly, this force would not leave any trace within his body, nor would there be any possibility of it being detected by others.
Hoo hoo hoo.
Space and time were distorting.
An old servant with white hair brought Lin Yuan swiftly to a grand mansion.
"What's happening?"
A tall man appeared, looking towards the white-haired old servant, while also noticing Lin Yuan, whose aura was as thin as threads.
"'Ah Yan." (Original host's nickname)
The tall man's expression changed, and with a gesture, the heavens and earth shifted. The white-haired old servant and Lin Yuan had already arrived at the deepest part of the mansion.
Here, seated cross-legged, were several old men with profound and mysterious auras. At this moment, they simultaneously opened their eyes and looked towards the tall man.
"'Elder Ancestors, my son needs your rescue.'"
The tall man didn't waste any time; he didn't even ask why Lin Yuan was injured at this moment.
"'This is the Dongyang Family's doing.'"
"'How dare they! The Dongyang Family actually dared to strike at my Yu Family's disciple.'"
The several old men with profound auras looked displeased. They immediately took action to stop the dark erosive force spreading within Lin Yuan.
"'Lucky you came back in time. If you had been even a few breaths later, it would have been real trouble.'"
The leading old man spoke, looking at the tall man and frowning.
"What's going on here?"
"'Clan leader, elders," the white-haired old servant, seeing that Lin Yuan was unharmed, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately recounted how Dongyang Meng had plotted against his family's young master.
"'In order to join under the Qingfen Marquis, the Dongyang Family has already resorted to any means necessary," the tall man promptly added from the side.
"'Becoming a disciple of the Qingfen Marquis is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Who would hold back?"
The leading Elder Ancestor of the Yu Family looked somewhat dissatisfied.
He was angry not at the Dongyang Family, but at Yu Yan.
"Knowing that the two families were at their most intense competition, he still went out to secretly meet Dongyang Meng? Isn't that stupid?"
"'The Elder Ancestor is right," the tall man promptly responded from the side.
He also knew his son had issues. The Dongyang Family attacking his son? If Yu Yan had pushed himself, using this opportunity of secretly meeting Dongyang Meng to bring many strong members of the Yu Family and turn the tables to kill Dongyang Meng, how could things have ended up like this?
At that time, with Dongyang Meng dead, Yu Yan's chances of becoming the Qingfen Marquis would greatly increase, and the Yu Family would soar to become a first-class family in the Qingfen Domain.
"'Elder Ancestor, my son is now..." the tall man cautiously asked.
"'Although his life was saved, it would take decades to fully recover. After a year, it will be time to go to Qingfen City," the Elder Ancestor of the Yu Family said, indicating that without full recovery, there was little chance to counter Dongyang Meng, effectively giving up the opportunity to join under the Qingfen Marquis.
"'That's good," the tall man sighed lightly, then immediately thought of something and said, "I'll go back now and properly instruct Ah Yan.'
After saying that, he quickly left with Lin Yuan and the old servant.
"'Finally made it through,"
Lin Yuan steadied himself. The Boundary-breaking Source Power was indeed miraculous—intangible and formless. Apart from Lin Yuan, outsiders couldn't detect it at all.
"'Do those Elder Ancestors of the Yu Family all have twelfth rank strength?'"
Lin Yuan felt inwardly, though it was only the twelfth rank Path-Clearing realm, it was still the twelfth rank.
The Yu Family was only a second-class family in the Qingfen Domain, yet had several Path-Clearing Elder Ancestors stationed there. So what about first-class families? And the Qingfen Marquis who oversees the entire Qingfen Domain?
"'This is the Source World," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Speaking of world levels, the Source World was not weaker than the Chaos Void.
"'The current priority is to heal the injuries to my physical body and soul."
Lin Yuan gathered his thoughts and began to examine himself.
Although the dark erosive force within his body had been completely eliminated, the injuries remained, and these injuries were extremely difficult to heal. External forces had little effect, and he could only rely on his own origin to slowly repair them.
This was why the Elder Ancestor of the Yu Family concluded that Lin Yuan would need decades to recover.
"'Decades?"
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. That was how long Yu Yan would need to recover; he himself didn't.
Within the universe.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
"'Over there in the Source World, it's finally stabilized."
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face. This was his first descent into the Source World; he didn't want to return defeated.
"'Now, all I need to do is wait for the body there to develop normally."
Lin Yuan thought to himself, from the intelligence he had gathered, the magnitude of that Source World was simply terrifying, especially the Liyang Ancient Kingdom, which was unfathomably deep.
Outside the Guming Chaos Continent.
Lin Yuan's avatar manifested.
"'This time, the speed is much faster," Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
When he first arrived at the Guming Chaos Continent, Lin Yuan was only at the eleventh rank and took four to five months to approach it.
But now?
From leaving the main universe to now, it was only a matter of days.
"'If I can ascend into the eighth level of the space-time realm, I could reach it in just a few breaths" Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Normally, the eighth level of the space-time realm belongs to the Chaos Venerable's space-time comprehension. As for the ninth level? That's the realm of the Chaos Great Saint.
His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign had achieved the pinnacle of the ninth level of the space-time realm, traversing the Chaos Void with no rival.
"'The Thousand Treasures Festival is about to begin."
Lin Yuan immediately headed towards the Guming Chaos Continent.
He had not forgotten the purpose of his coming this time: to bring numerous weapons, armaments, treasures, and rare items to sell, and then to buy that golden box at the Thousand Treasures Festival.
The golden box bore the mark of the Mysterious Emperor Lineage. Only Lin Yuan knew that it likely contained treasures of the Mysterious Emperor Lineage from before.
The golden box itself was almost indestructible, which is why it has been passed down to the present. The treasures existing within such a box were certainly not simple; their true value was definitely far more than thirty thousand Chaos Stones.
However.
As Lin Yuan kept approaching the Guming Chaos Continent, he immediately sensed something was wrong.
Compared to when he first arrived outside the Guming Chaos Continent, the atmosphere here was noticeably tenser, and the number of inspectors had greatly increased.
At the center of the continent, that black mountain peak with its spiky protrusions reaching the sky – it had disappeared without a trace at some point.
"Has some catastrophe occurred?" Lin Yuan speculated. The Guming Chaos Venerable had a significant reputation in the nearby regions. If such a large change had happened to the Guming Chaos Continent, it must be a major catastrophe.
"The Chaos Void is fraught with crises. Even the Chaos Continent, which is under the protection of the Chaos Venerable, cannot claim absolute safety. The Void outside the Chaos Continent is even more dangerous."
Lin Yuan was quite moved.
"However, the Guming Chaos Continent had existed for hundreds of cosmic eras, enduring many tribulations, all of which were withstood under the protection of the Guming Chaos Venerable."
"'No matter what catastrophe occurs, it has nothing to do with me. As long as I can buy that golden box, I can leave immediately."
Lin Yuan thought as he arrived at the entrance of the Guming Chaos Continent and smoothly entered it.
Very soon.
The two major avatars converged and headed to the trading area of Mingchuan City, planning to sell numerous weapons, armaments, treasures, and rare items to exchange for enough Chaos Stones.
