Chapter 326
🕑 Added 2024-10-21 04:00:01 +0000 UTCThe Vast Martial World
Since the first martial deity ascended a hundred years ago, the originally quiet and lifeless Martial World has gradually become lively.
The Martial World, created by Lin Yuan, is vastly larger than the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness. Even the martial deities have not explored its entirety.
Over the past century, with each martial deity that ascended, the Martial World gradually formed three main regions.
One region is the gathering place for martial deities of the Longshan family, centered around Longshan City.
Another region is where martial deities outside the Longshan family gather, centered around Wanxiang City.
The third region is the cultivation place of the great Chief Longshan, occupying the central part of the Martial World, where the essence is most concentrated.
The spread of martial cultivation methods and the establishment of the Martial World all originated from Chief Longshan. Every martial deity ascending from the human realm to the Martial World holds immense respect for Chief Longshan.
He is the unparalleled strongman who ended the era of the gods and started the Martial Era.
Nowadays, although the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness still exist and new gods continue to be born, they cannot compare in power to the Martial World.
Name: Longshan Yuan (Lin Yuan)
Identity: Master of the Gate of Myriad Realms
Bound Talent: Unrivaled Insight
Divine Abilities: Blood Rebirth, Moving Mountains, Enhancement, Elemental Body
Current Status: Consciousness Descended
Remaining Stay Time: Three Years
Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes, glancing at the lines of illusory text below his vision.
"The time for my stay is almost up."
Lin Yuan looked ahead, and the details of everything happening in the vast Martial World entered his eyes.
As the creator of this world, nothing in the Martial World could be hidden from him, making it almost like a second internal world.
"When I killed the gods, it caused a significant overflow of faith in the human realm. Along with the spread of martial cultivation methods, in just five hundred years, the first martial deity was born."
Lin Yuan reflected. Martial deities correspond to the eighth rank in martial cultivation, although there are significant differences.
The advantage of martial deities lies in leveraging their bloodline power, allowing for rapid progress before the seventh rank. As long as the bloodline's potential is high enough, there are almost no bottlenecks.
After the seventh rank, igniting the divine fire should theoretically require a long period of seclusion to gather faith. However, with the fall of the gods, there was no need for such secrecy.
Additionally, with Lin Yuan's presence, martial cultivators felt confident. After the first martial deity entered the Martial World, many other martial deities quickly followed.
In just a hundred years, the number of martial deities in the Martial World exceeded a thousand.
"Out of the thousand martial deities, only less than a hundred belong to the Longshan family?"
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. Despite his clear favoritism towards the Longshan family, frequently sending his primordial spirits back to the human realm to solve problems for the family's 'martial talents,' the family members did not measure up compared to other talents in the human realm.
This was quite natural. Even with Lin Yuan, the Longshan family was just a single family with limited numbers, incomparable to the entire human population.
Nevertheless, even with only a few dozen martial deities, the Longshan family still held a dominant position in the Martial World. Martial deities outside the family dared not offend those from the Longshan family.
All of this, naturally, was because of Chief Longshan Yuan.
"A few hundred years ago, a young member of the Longshan family prayed for me to suppress martial deities outside the family and curb the rise of martial talents from the source of faith."
Lin Yuan's gaze was calm; he naturally did not agree to this request.
His goal was always to spread martial cultivation as widely as possible. The rise and fall of the Longshan family itself were of little concern, as long as martial cultivation continued to spread in this world, meeting his expectations.
Restricting the development of martial cultivation for the sake of the Longshan family's dominance was something Lin Yuan would never do.
Moreover, he was gradually letting go of the Longshan family, not having his primordial spirits return to Longshan Ridge in the human realm for the past few decades.
"Their lifespan should be nearing its limit." Lin Yuan looked down, observing everything in the human realm.
With Lin Yuan's help, Longshan Fang and his wife reached the most perfect physical state allowed in this world, equivalent to the sixth-level legendary knight, granting them a millennium lifespan.
However, after a thousand years, if they had not ignited the divine fire, they would still face old age and death.
Here, old age does not mean physical decay but the decline of the soul and mental will.
With Lin Yuan's strength, he could sustain them for several thousand years by maintaining the nourishment of his internal world.
But once he returned to the main world, and the nourishment ceased, their souls and wills would quickly wither.
"Igniting the divine fire."
Lin Yuan's eyes deepened. In this world, igniting the divine fire is crucial, marking the boundary between mortals and demigods.
To ignite the divine fire, one must rely on an unmatched will and spirit, something external help cannot achieve, similar to the 'inner demon tribulation' from the seventh to the eighth rank in the main world.
Although there were over a hundred thousand martial demigods in the human realm over six hundred years, considering the vast population, the ratio was still incredibly low.
On average, there might not be a single martial demigod among a trillion people.
Longshan Yuan's parents were ordinary people who had not faced significant hardships. Since Lin Yuan's rise, they had lived comfortably, making the possibility of igniting the divine fire almost nonexistent.
"Without becoming the Strongest One, one must ultimately face the limit of lifespan." Lin Yuan had a realization.
The supreme immortal kings of the Spirit Realm and the gods of this world seemed to have eternal lifespans, but that eternity was only physical or divine.
Weaker beings, over eternal time, would have their minds gradually twisted and decayed. Their understanding and perception of all things would be affected by time.
The same event might be viewed entirely differently by a being who lived a thousand years compared to one who lived a hundred years.
The supreme immortal kings and the gods had not lived long enough. If they lived for billions or hundreds of billions of years, they might go mad or even consider suicide, unable to bear the passage of time.
Only the Strongest Ones, the ultimate beings of an evolutionary path, the twelfth-rank beings, had eternal and unbroken wills and spirits, representing true eternity.
Of course, the Strongest Ones could die, but never from age.
"I possess the Gate of Myriad Realms and many means of self-preservation. As long as I do not court death, I will not die. But unless I become the Strongest One, there will be a day when I perish, and no one can save me."
Lin Yuan pondered. Even the Strongest Ones in the main world had relatives and parents, but without becoming the Strongest Ones, they would face old age and death.
Strong beings who comprehended the complete rules of time could slow their time flow, achieving 'alternative eternity,' essentially reducing the impact of time on their will and spirit.
When a thousand years pass in the outside world, it feels like just one day to them, experiencing only a day's worth of time.
"Now, my strength..." Lin Yuan closed his eyes, his consciousness descending into his internal world.
His internal world, spanning 200M miles, was vast and mighty. The seven-colored liquids in the mysterious gourd could each enhance Lin Yuan's physical body and internal world by 3.33 times.
After fully absorbing the first six colors, the final enhancement would reach 200M miles.
A 200M mile internal world indicated that Lin Yuan had nearly perfected the absorption of the sixth blue liquid, approaching the final purple liquid.
"To fully absorb the purple liquid, I might need to reach the tenth rank?" Lin Yuan speculated.
The enhancement of the internal world depended on the base strength of the physical body and soul. Each time he transmigrated, Lin Yuan waited until he recovered to his peak before summoning the mysterious gourd, ensuring sufficient self-preservation.
Low strength would mean the physical body and soul might not bear such a vast internal world, even with high-level 'Blood Rebirth.'
"Space layers." Lin Yuan's gaze shifted to the deeper parts of his internal world.
He had expected the internal world's size and the enhancement of each colored liquid before this transmigration, estimating the final size after completing this journey.
But the space layers were a pleasant surprise.
The divine essences of this world had surpassed Lin Yuan's expectations for developing space layers.
Initially, he aimed to develop ten million space layers during this transmigration, achieving the ninth-rank peak and completing his goal.
But ten million space layers?
Six hundred years ago, Lin Yuan's internal world reached 120 million space layers after comprehending the essence of the world's space through demigod cores.
In the following six hundred years, comprehending various spatial divine cores from true gods and main gods, he further developed the space layers to—
"2.331 billion."
Lin Yuan's gaze penetrated countless space layers, his internal world's depth reaching an astonishing level.
In the main world, many ninth-rank powerhouses considered ten million space layers the peak of the ninth rank. But Lin Yuan had developed 2.331 billion space layers?
In terms of numbers, this was 233.1 times the normal ninth-rank peak, but the actual power was more than ten thousand times stronger.
"This transmigration has yielded immense gains."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but marvel at the unprecedented number of space layers—2.331 billion, an amount that would leave any ninth-rank life in the main world in despair.
Lin Yuan couldn't claim his space layers were the highest in the main world, but they were undoubtedly unparalleled.
This 'unparalleled' included all beings, not just human civilization but all star races and peak groups, including unique life forms, none of which could have this number of space layers at the ninth rank.
"I wonder what my internal world will be like when it transforms into an internal universe?" Lin Yuan anticipated.
Transforming the internal world into an internal universe was the ultimate sublimation, breaking all shackles and limitations.
Then, the internal universe's size wouldn't be limited to millions of miles, and space layers would naturally evolve, becoming broader and deeper.
The extent of this sublimation depended on the original size and depth of the internal world.
The strongest ninth-rank life of the Tianyu race, Huny, developed over thirty million space layers. Was that just for fun?
Given the time to develop over thirty million space layers, Huny could have crossed into the tenth rank, significantly enhancing combat power beyond millions to tens of millions of space layers.
Other ninth-rank powerhouses of various races also developed as many space layers as possible within the ninth rank, with ten million space layers as the minimum threshold.
Developing so many space layers at the ninth rank was to prepare for the internal world's transformation into an internal universe, breaking all shackles and limitations.
"The Martial Ninth Rank Chapter," Lin Yuan shifted his attention from the internal world to his perfected Martial Ninth Rank Chapter.
Unlike the seventh and eighth chapters, the ninth chapter focused on adjusting the internal world's structure, making it more stable and powerful.
With the same size, space layers, and foundation, martial ninth-rank powerhouses would hold an advantage.
Additionally, based on the bloodline cultivation path of this world, Lin Yuan developed a bloodline purification method for the martial evolution system.
Martial evolvers could extract their bloodline potential while comprehending the grand rules, enhancing their strength faster than through rule comprehension alone.
This method was suitable for citizens with high-level, dense bloodlines, with the limit being the seventh rank.
Human rights in the main world prevented gathering faith, making it impossible to independently develop a divine kingdom and thus reach the eighth rank through this method.
Lin Yuan envisioned that high-bloodline martial evolvers could fully extract their bloodline potential, reaching the fifth, sixth, and seventh ranks quickly, then transitioning to rule comprehension.
"The bloodline evolution path is not the grand path." Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
None of the nine supreme powerhouses of human civilization or the strongest of other peak races achieved their ultimate form through bloodlines alone.
The Stellar Union, a league of unique life forms, had supreme powerhouses with noble bloodlines, but reaching the twelfth rank relied on more than bloodlines.
In some sense, bloodlines became a constraint in reaching the peak.
"By perfecting the Martial Ninth Rank Chapter and adding a branch for bloodline evolution, I have enhanced the overall foundation and strength of martial evolvers."
Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he raised his right hand, and with a thought, the time flow on his skin began to distort, slowing or stopping, becoming out of sync with the main time flow.
"Time rules."
Lin Yuan's eyes gleamed. Over the past six hundred years, he had invested significant effort in comprehending the time rules.

Thanks for the chapter!

200M Billion Miles is def a mistake. Only the last liquid gives 1B miles i believe was said in an earlier chapter, plus that big of a jump makes no sense.
