After absorbing the main body and two primordial spirits in the world of gods, this treasure had undergone several transformations.
The aura it now exuded was nearly on par with that of a tenth-rank treasure.
"By activating the Soul Calming Bell along with the 'Elemental Body' and 'Blood Rebirth' protective techniques, my defense should be comparable to a tenth rank, right?" Lin Yuan smiled.
With over 2 billion space layers, Lin Yuan's full-power eruption exceeded that of an ordinary tenth rank. In terms of spatial essence comprehension, he surpassed most tenth-rank experts. Regarding defense, using the Soul Calming Bell and two divine techniques, Lin Yuan feared no tenth-rank.
In terms of direct defense, with Lin Yuan occupying over 2 billion space layers, even a strong tenth rank would struggle to locate his true body, let alone attack it.
"After this trip to the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, I'll start preparing to break through to the tenth rank," Lin Yuan decided. He believed he had achieved the utmost in the ninth rank. Further developing space layers seemed unnecessary.
With over 2 billion space layers, adding a few thousand more would make little difference. Additionally, the difficulty of developing space layers beyond 2 billion increased exponentially.
"Huny had quite a few good things." Lin Yuan's thoughts moved, and after killing Huny in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, he seized Huny's spatial ring and glanced at its contents.
There were treasures, some 'Mysterious Emperor Crystals,' and some opportunities obtained from the secret realm itself. The total value was around two million universe crystals. This was less than the typical value of a special ninth-rank, but considering it was a clone of Huny in the secret realm, it was normal not to carry too many precious treasures.
Though strong beings with tens of millions of space layers had few rivals in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, it didn't mean they were invincible. The core area held many dangers that could severely wound even special ninth-rank beings.
In the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm.
With a thought, Lin Yuan took Xi Lan deep into the space layers.
"Milky Way Star Lord, I don't think I can make it." Xi Lan's aura was waning, having burned his body, soul, and will for two and a half years.
At this point, Xi Lan's life signs had reached a nadir.
"I'll take your treasures back for you," Lin Yuan understood Xi Lan's condition. In the outside world, with various universe wonders, he might be saved, but not in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm.
Even with such wonders, Xi Lan wouldn't use them, as it was just a clone that could be reformed upon destruction. Wasting precious life-saving wonders was unnecessary.
"Thank you, Milky Way Star Lord." Xi Lan nodded, his body quickly disintegrating.
He could sustain a few more months, but there was no need. The sooner he disintegrated, the sooner he could form a new clone.
"Brother Xi Lan," Lin Yuan put away Xi Lan's spatial ring, deciding to share a portion of his gains from the core area with him.
Without Xi Lan, Lin Yuan wouldn't have lasted this long, and he had to acknowledge this debt.
"The calling?" Lin Yuan looked towards the core area. With the exponential increase in his space layers, he better understood the calling.
If Lin Yuan's perception was correct, the calling came from a space layer in the core area.
"Let's go see."
Lin Yuan quickly headed to the core area, not hiding his aura but rather deliberately showing it to attract the attention of native life forms.
Under the calling, Lin Yuan had no time to hunt native life forms but could draw them to him for easy kills. With his current strength, he could sweep through the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, killing any native life forms that came his way.
Boom, boom, boom.
The agitation of the space layers even alerted nearby ninth-rank aliens.
"Not good, that's the Milky Way Star Lord."
"Get away quickly. Even Huny died at his hands, forced to self-destruct."
"Run, run, don't let the Milky Way Star Lord spot us."
"He's heading to the core area?"
"During this exploration, stay as far from the core area as possible."
Countless ninth-rank aliens were terrified, especially those with strained relations with human civilization, fearing discovery by the Milky Way Star Lord.
Even some special ninth-ranks, upon sensing his aura, fled quickly, not daring to linger.
What a joke.
Huny died at the Milky Way Star Lord's hands. Even if some special ninth-ranks were slightly stronger than Huny, the Milky Way Star Lord killed Huny without much effort.
If he could easily kill Huny, killing them would be no trouble.
Under such circumstances, those special ninth-ranks naturally fled as far as possible. Even those without major grievances with human civilization avoided getting too close to the Milky Way Star Lord.
No one wanted to stay near someone who could kill them at any moment—it was too risky.
Moreover, every special ninth-rank that survived to this point had significant gains. To the Milky Way Star Lord, they were walking treasure troves.
At the Milky Way's main star.
Lin Yuan was satisfied as he stored the Soul Calming Bell within himself, continuing to nurture it with world power.
"Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter," Lin Yuan's smile faded as he prepared to upload the Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter.
This was something he needed to do after every transmigration, continuously updating the Martial Path evolution method to attract more evolvers to cultivate, aiding the ultimate leap forward.
Of course, earning massive merit points and wealth was also a considerable gain.
Uploading the Martial Path evolution method to the Wisdom Goddess didn't mean selling its ownership. Lin Yuan remained the founder of the Martial Path evolution method, earning thirty percent of the proceeds from each sale.
"Wisdom Goddess."
Lin Yuan connected to the Wisdom Goddess.
"Honored ninth-rank evolver, Milky Way Star Lord Lin Yuan, the Wisdom Goddess is pleased to serve you," a solemn, cold voice sounded in Lin Yuan's ears almost instantly.
"I want to upload the Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter," Lin Yuan said, then uploaded all the organized content of the Ninth-Rank Chapter.
In addition, Lin Yuan also uploaded his summarized bloodline cultivation path as a branch of the Martial Path evolution method.
"Honored ninth-rank evolver, Milky Way Star Lord Lin Yuan, please wait a moment. The uploaded Ninth-Rank Chapter and bloodline cultivation path are being evaluated," the Wisdom Goddess said, then fell silent.
Lin Yuan expected this and waited patiently.
In a mysterious virtual world.
Nine majestic thrones stood tall.
At this moment, several figures appeared out of thin air.
Supreme Being Xia Qin.
Supreme Being Yu Die.
Supreme Being Gu Li.
Supreme Being Xu Shen.
A total of four Evolution Tower Masters' consciousnesses descended.
"Wisdom Goddess, why have you summoned us?" Supreme Being Xu Shen frowned slightly. As the ultimate of the Void evolution path, he spent most of his time immersed in the vast spatial essence.
Having just emerged, being summoned by the Wisdom Goddess annoyed him.
"Xu Shen, don't be so irritable. The goddesses are also working for human civilization," Supreme Being Gu Li said.
Human civilization's nine Supreme Beings had different personalities. Supreme Being Gu Li, who was decisive against aliens, was gentle with his own kind. (Supreme Beings = Strongest Ones)
"Four Supreme Beings, the Ninth-Rank Chapter of the Martial Path evolution method requires your evaluation," the Wisdom Goddess's voice came.
"The Ninth-Rank Chapter of the Martial Path evolution method? The path founded by our civilization's most talented genius?" Supreme Being Xu Shen's eyes brightened.
"Yes."
"This young one has grown too quickly. Just recently, he killed Huny of the Tianyu Clan in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, with at least 100 million space layers developed," Supreme Being Yu Die said in amazement.
As Supreme Beings, they could witness the past of the universe and observe all kinds of incredible geniuses. Even so, Lin Yuan's feats were surprising.
100 million space layers? Even with time treasures, developing that many layers was extraordinarily difficult.
Human civilization's nine Supreme Beings had nurtured many descendants with immense resources, yet none could develop over 100 million layers at the ninth rank.
"Indeed, I've never seen or heard of such talent," Supreme Being Gu Li was also amazed, feeling fortunate that Lin Yuan was human.
"Hopefully, this young one can go all the way," Supreme Being Xia Qin sighed.
Going all the way meant reaching the twelfth rank, becoming the ultimate of an evolution path, and joining the ten Supreme Beings of human civilization.
"Alright."
"Wisdom Goddess, show us the Ninth-Rank Chapter of the Martial Path," Supreme Being Xu Shen was intrigued.
Seeing the other three Supreme Beings' high evaluation of Lin Yuan, his curiosity was piqued.
Especially Supreme Being Xia Qin, who hoped the young one could go all the way. Supreme Being Xu Shen knew how difficult it was to become a Supreme Being. It wasn't just about talent but all-around accumulation and a bit of luck.
"Four Supreme Beings, please see," the Wisdom Goddess sent the Ninth-Rank Chapter and bloodline cultivation path to the four Supreme Beings.
With the computational power of the three goddesses, they could independently evaluate a ninth-rank evolution method. However, the potential of the Martial Path evolution method was so great that they needed the Supreme Beings to ensure accuracy.
Soon, the Supreme Beings finished their review.
"Interesting, this Ninth-Rank Chapter involves transforming the inner world? I can deduce that the transformed inner world is indeed much more stable."
"Amazing. This direction of transformation has never appeared in the universe before. How did this young one think of it?"
"Incredible. The Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter will make future Martial Path ninth-rank evolvers much stronger than their peers."
The four Supreme Beings discussed quietly, easily understanding the essence of the Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter and its method for stabilizing and perfecting the inner world.
World transformation isn't easy. A stable world is in perfect balance, and any slight change could cause collapse.
"This bloodline cultivation path is much more mature than the current methods used by bloodline evolution families in our civilization."
Supreme Being Xu Shen reviewed the bloodline cultivation path and gave his assessment.
"Indeed."
"Even if the Martial Path evolution method doesn't evolve into an ultimate path, it will be a foundational path for our civilization."
"Our civilization has truly found a treasure this time."
The four Supreme Beings exchanged smiles.
"Four Supreme Beings, the final evaluation of the Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter is 80 million merit points, and the bloodline cultivation path is 50 million merit points. Any objections?" the Wisdom Goddess asked.
"80 million merit points is a bit low, let's round it up to 100 million."
"And the bloodline cultivation path, although mainly suitable for the Martial Path, can be referenced by other evolvers too. Let's also set it at 100 million."
Supreme Being Xia Qin thought for a while and spoke.
"We agree." Supreme Beings Gu Li and the others nodded.
The three goddesses had many bases for their evaluations, which were neither excessive nor stingy. However, the Supreme Beings felt that rewarding an exceptional genius like Lin Yuan with extra merit points benefited the entire civilization.
"Evaluation approved," the Wisdom Goddess responded.
At the Milky Way's main star.
Lin Yuan was resting with his eyes closed.
"Honored ninth-rank evolver, Milky Way Star Lord Lin Yuan, the evaluation of your uploaded Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter and bloodline cultivation path is complete," the Wisdom Goddess's solemn, cold voice came.
"Complete?" Lin Yuan opened his eyes and listened.
"After evaluation, the Martial Path Ninth-Rank Chapter is worth 100 million merit points, and the bloodline cultivation path is worth 100 million merit points, totaling 200 million merit points. Should they be issued now?" the Wisdom Goddess said quickly.
"200 million merit points?" Lin Yuan took a deep breath.
What is the most precious in the Human Civilization Alliance? Civilization currency? Universe currency? Universe crystals? Countless treasures?
None of these.
The most precious is merit points.
Lin Yuan once didn't understand this until he bathed in the Eternal Spring and realized the value of merit points.
To put it simply, many strategic treasures in human civilization aren't available to outsiders, no matter the price. But if you're human and have the required permissions, you can obtain them with merit points.
In human civilization, merit points can accomplish anything.
Even enlisting a Supreme Being is possible with enough merit points.

Thanks for the chapter!

Glad we weren't left on a cliff hanger for the evaluation.
