Chapter 181
🕑 Added 2024-05-29 04:00:01 +0000 UTCInside the spatial entrance.
It was a vast 'grassland'.
A gentle breeze blew, and large patches of 'green grass' swayed.
However, upon closer inspection, one would find that each 'green grass' was composed of the ultimate power of space.
The moment Lin Yuan entered.
Countless 'green grasses' swayed, and a terrifying spatial storm quickly formed.
"This..." Lin Yuan's expression was unsightly. Even an ordinary Seventh Rank Evolver wouldn't survive this level of spatial storm.
"I'm human!"
Lin Yuan quickly released the aura of his battlefield pass.
The battlefield pass, made by three goddesses, cannot be imitated by foreigners, and is an important proof of being a member of the human race.
Buzz.
With the aura of the human race's battlefield pass spreading.
The almost formed spatial storm quickly began to dissipate.
The next moment.
The scenery around began to change.
Lin Yuan arrived at the top of a mountain peak.
A cold, black-haired man stood with his back to Lin Yuan, overlooking the scenery below.
"Is he the master of this small space?"
Lin Yuan cautiously appraised the back of the cold man, silently thinking to himself.
With Lin Yuan's insight, he could judge that the cold man in front of him was just a remnant of power. As for his original body, he should have died long ago, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed here all the time.
Seventh and Eighth Rank Evolvers possess strong essence of life. Even if their bodies die, their lingering obsession and power can exist for a long time.
"You should have already figured out that my original self died a long time ago, and now I am just a remnant of obsession."
The cold man spoke with his back to Lin Yuan.
"How many years has it been in the Star Sea Calendar?"
The cold man continued.
The Star Sea Calendar is the standard way of recording time in human civilization.
"2 112 645 years in the Star Sea Calendar."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan immediately replied.
"So long has passed." The mood of the cold man changed slightly.
"My name is 'Ouyin'. Since you are a member of the human race, you should have heard of me." After a moment of silence, the cold man said.
"Ouyin? Eighth Rank Evolver 'Ouyin'?"
Lin Yuan's heart moved slightly. In the era of interstellar travel, information became extremely easy to obtain. Unless it was some confidential information, most of it could be found on the network.
And Ouyin, an Eighth Rank Evolver, was an independent Evolver active in the Star Sea Calendar for over nine hundred thousand years.
What is an independent Evolver? They don't join any forces, they come and go on their own.
According to the records of human civilization in the universe, Ouyin's last known location was roughly in the southeastern region of human civilization.
Unexpectedly, he came to an alien battlefield and fell here.
"Designated as Zone C24763 Alien Battlefield, it's just a small alien battlefield. Although I, Ouyin, may not be comparable to those top Eighth Ranks, I am not weak. It's just that I didn't expect to encounter Hei Yuan * Qingyu in this alien battlefield."
Ouyin chuckled lightly, with a hint of mockery.
"Hei Yuan * Qingyu?"
Lin Yuan's face changed.
Those who can have Hei Yuan as their surname are basically absolute nobles in the Black Abyss clan. (Hei Yuan means Black Abyss)
And Hei Yuan * Qingyu, as far as Lin Yuan knows, is already one of the top ten figures in the Black Abyss clan.
"Hei Yuan * Qingyu has long since reached the Eighth Rank, specializing in soul attacks. Just one strike caused my soul to collapse by more than half. If I hadn't activated some secret method to save my life, I wouldn't have been able to escape even if I didn't leave this small space."
The cold man said.
"Even if I escape, I won't be able to hold on for too long. I can't contact the Goddess on the battlefield. I can only rely on my last bit of strength to open up a small space and set up some traps."
The cold man's tone was calm.
Lin Yuan heard this, silent.
Even Eighth Rank powerhouses have differences in strength. Hei Yuan * Qingyu is definitely the strongest part of the Eighth Rank, far surpassing ordinary Eighth Rank powerhouses.
The Red Kun Star Lord is probably also among the top ranks of the Eighth Rank. Its main body is the Star Kun of the Star Sea, a pinnacle bloodline of the universe. As an Eighth Rank, it should not be much weaker than Hei Yuan * Qingyu.
"Alright, let's not talk about these nonsense."
The cold man chuckled, "It has been so many years, you are the first member of the human race to enter this small space, so naturally, all the treasures I left behind belong to you."
"In my life, I am used to enjoying, and I haven't left many treasures. The remaining treasures include an Eighth Rank defensive armor, an Eighth Rank soul defense weapon, several Seventh and Sixth Rank weapons, a thousand units of universal crystals, a special life essence potion containing the bloodline essence of three ice wolves. The remaining treasures are of lower value. You can see for yourself later."
"Of course, that Eighth Rank soul defense weapon, under the attack of Hei Yuan * Qingyu, is in a severely shattered state. However, soul defense weapons are always precious. Even if they are severely damaged, they can easily exchange for several weapons of the same level."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but hold his breath.
The treasures mentioned by the cold man were extremely precious even for Eighth Rank powerhouses, especially the Eighth Rank soul defense weapon, which was priceless.
As for universal crystals, they are raw materials for making universal coins, which can be used directly as 'currency' for transactions with other powerhouses.
1,000 units of universal crystals are roughly equivalent to 100 billion universal coins.
And the exchange rate between universal coins and the currency of the Human Civilization Alliance is as high as one to ten thousand.
There are also three essences of ice wolf bloodline potions. Ice wolves are special creatures deep in the universe. When they reach adulthood, they are at the Fourth Rank. Their bloodline essence can be fully integrated into the offspring, easily creating a lineage of powerful evolvers.
Such essences of bloodline potions from special creatures are also considered rare commodities in human civilization. Once they appear, they are quickly snapped up.
To produce such an essence of bloodline potion, one would wonder how much blood from ice wolves needs to be drained.
"All of these are yours."
The cold man still had his back to Lin Yuan.
"Thank you, senior."
Lin Yuan's expression was solemn as he spoke earnestly.
Although it's true that any member of the human race who discovers this space entrance and enters will receive gifts from the cold man.
But Lin Yuan did indeed receive a great benefit.
"I wonder if senior has any tasks for junior?"
Lin Yuan asked tentatively.
"What tasks?"
The cold man was slightly startled, then smiled, "I've been dead for so long, I don't have any old friends, so how could there be any tasks."
Boom.
Just then.
The small space where Lin Yuan was located began to shake.
"You should leave quickly."
"This small space is about to collapse."
The cold man raised his right hand.
A stream of light flew out and fell into Lin Yuan's hand.
It was a storage bracelet.
Inside were many treasures owned by the cold man, 'Ouyin'.
"Yes."
Lin Yuan took the storage bracelet and immediately flew towards the entrance.
Ouyin, the cold man, looked at Lin Yuan's departing figure, and his body began to disintegrate rapidly.
"Star of Hope, Star of Crescent."
Ouyin muttered softly, and the next moment he completely disintegrated.
Red Kun Main Star.
Thirteenth mountain peak halls.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
Regarding the experience of the Yang Spirit, Lin Yuan naturally 'synced' with it and knew everything. They share the same consciousness, and their perspectives can be switched at any time.
"The alien battlefield is full of dangers. Except for the strongest, no one can guarantee that they won't die."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Ouyin's experience as an Eighth Rank Evolver made him vigilant.
Even in a small alien battlefield like Zone C24763, it is possible for Eighth Rank Evolvers to stumble.
"But the Human civilization now is much better than before."
Lin Yuan's expression was slightly sentimental.
During the period when Ouyin was alive, the war between the Human Civilization Alliance and many neighboring alien races was quite difficult, and various aspects, including reserves, seemed inadequate.
The most obvious thing was that during that time, the technique of creating avatars was extremely rare, even Eighth Rank Evolvers like Ouyin hadn't cultivated a single avatar.
Unlike now, just the avatar techniques recorded by the Red Kun lineage alone numbered over ten.
Although cultivating avatars requires sacrificing a small part of one's soul and not every evolver is suitable for cultivating avatars.
But it's much better than tens of thousands of years ago.
"Anyway."
"Continue cultivating."
After a moment of sentiment, Lin Yuan plunged back into comprehending the spatial models.
During his cultivation, Lin Yuan occasionally connects to the virtual world to communicate with other evolvers.
The collision of different viewpoints and cognitions, combined with the deduction of Unrivaled Insight, often provides unexpected help to Lin Yuan.
"This person's insights should be no less than that of my teacher."
Lin Yuan entered the circle of founders in the virtual world and chatted with a founder named 'Tai A' for a while, silently thinking.
Lin Yuan and this 'Tai A' met under a post called 'Is it better to comprehend one rule deeply or multiple rules superficially' posted by the founder forum twenty-three thousand years ago.
Lin Yuan often communicates with the other party and vaguely feels that this 'Tai A' has a broad vision.
However, despite searching on the virtual world network, Lin Yuan did not find any information related to 'Tai A'.
While Lin Yuan was contemplating.
The founder named 'Tai A' sent another message.
"Of the various evolution paths of human civilization, which Rank do you think is the most important?"
After browsing through this message, Lin Yuan thoughtfully.
The various Ranks of the martial evolution path from the First Rank to the Sixth Rank, and even the Seventh Rank Lin Yuan is currently deducing, flashed through his mind.
"The Seventh Rank."
After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan gave an answer.
With more and more basic spatial models being comprehended.
Lin Yuan has faintly sensed the specific direction of the Seventh Rank chapter of martial arts.
Once Lin Yuan truly opens up the Seventh Rank chapter, the transformation of himself will far surpass the previous six Ranks.
"It's almost time to come back, right?"
After replying to 'Tai A's' message, Lin Yuan swept his gaze in the direction of the alien battlefield.
According to Lin Yuan's plan, he sent his Yang Spirit to the alien battlefield to comprehend the rules emanating from the spatial fluctuations.
But plans can't keep up with changes.
Lin Yuan, who intended to stay away from contact with aliens, unexpectedly gained the legacy of an Eighth Rank Evolver.
Even in a medium-sized alien battlefield, obtaining the treasure legacy of an Eighth Rank powerhouse is extremely rare.
Lin Yuan didn't even think about it.
Because the probability was too low.
But since it happened, Lin Yuan could only reluctantly accept it.
In this situation, leaving the legacy of the Eighth Rank Evolver Ouyin on the Yang Spirit, and then letting the Yang Spirit stay in the perilous alien battlefield.
Lin Yuan couldn't sleep.
If the Yang Spirit had fallen, but Lin Yuan didn't care; it would only take some time to reassemble.
However, if he were to lose the legacy of the Eighth Rank Evolver along with the fall of the Yang Spirit, including the Eighth Rank armor, the Eighth Rank soul defense weapon, and the 1,000 units of universal crystals, Lin Yuan estimated that he would feel uncomfortable for a long time.
So, after the departure of the Yang Spirit from that small space, Lin Yuan instructed him to come back and leave many treasures with him before continuing to the alien battlefield.
It would only take a little over a month for the round trip, which Lin Yuan could afford.
In the endless distance, there was a huge research planet.
The scholar Tai A watched the rapidly flashing complex characters on the screen in front of him.
After a moment.
A hint of fatigue appeared on Tai A's face.
"Let's see if that question has been answered."
Tai A decided to take a break and entered the circle of founders in the virtual world, opening the chat list with Lin Yuan.
"Seventh Rank?"
Tai A saw Lin Yuan's reply and smiled.
"Hahaha, you're definitely wrong this time."
"The various Ranks divided in the evolution paths of human civilization, undoubtedly, the most important is the Eighth Rank."
"To reach the Eighth Rank, one must master the 'Boundary Opening' method."
"Opening up a world within oneself."
"Only by establishing a world as the foundation can one continue to ascend; otherwise, it's difficult to progress further with just the physical body."
Tai A looked pleased, but also somewhat puzzled.
He remembered that Lin Yuan should have grasped the rudiments of the 'Boundary Opening' method, with his core viewpoint being the 'Boundary Opening' method.
If that's the case.
Even if Lin Yuan didn't know the 'Boundary Opening' method, he should understand the huge gap between the Seventh and Eighth Ranks. So why would he still think the Seventh Rank is the most important?
"It shouldn't be like this?"
"Why make such a mistake?"
Tai A stroked his chin.
"Why the Seventh Rank?"
Tai A pondered for a moment, not immediately 'mocking' Lin Yuan, but instead sending a message to inquire.
Red Kun Main Star.
Lin Yuan had just prepared to continue cultivating.
Then he received a question from the founder 'Tai A' again.
"Why the Seventh Rank?"
Lin Yuan blinked.
He believed the Seventh Rank was the most important solely based on the martial evolution path.
Because in Lin Yuan's conception, with the addition of space rules, the Yin, Yang, Taiji, plus space rules, would undergo the greatest transformation, with the Taiji domain evolving into a Taiji miniature world.
So Lin Yuan thought the Seventh Rank was the most important.
"Containing ten thousand paths in one path, controlling ten thousand paths, and integrating space rules."
Lin Yuan casually mentioned some of the theoretical aspects of the Seventh Rank chapter in the martial evolution path.
These theories were all deduced by Lin Yuan during these days. Even if others knew about them, it would be meaningless. Without the research foundation that Lin Yuan had, it would be difficult for outsiders to delve into these theories deeply.
In the endless distance, there was a huge research planet.
Tai A stared at the conversation box, patiently waiting.
He decided that no matter what response Lin Yuan gave later, he would use the method of boundary opening to make him understand the unquestionable importance of the Eighth Rank.
Drip—
A message arrived.
Tai A immediately watched it.
"This?"
Tai A was a bit stunned.
Many of the words he had prepared were swallowed back.
Because the message Lin Yuan sent to him was a kind of 'Boundary Opening' method.
However—
Why could he use the 'Boundary Opening' method at the Seventh Rank?
Tai A found it hard to believe.
Almost in an instant, Tai A began to calculate.
Countless characters flashed in his eyes as he tried to demonstrate the possibility of success based on the theories Lin Yuan sent him.
Over an hour later.
Tai A closed his eyes.
After a long while, Tai A opened his eyes.
"It does seem likely to succeed."
Tai A's thoughts converged, his expression serious, as he replied to Lin Yuan in the conversation box:
"Who exactly are you, the great evolutionary scholar?"
