Black Planet, Life and Death Reincarnation Guidance Space.

One of Lin Yuan's Incarnations sat here, observing the endless cycle of life and death before it.

"Life is death, and death is life. Life and death are merely different facets of the Reincarnation Rule. So that's how it is, so that's how it is."

Lin Yuan was radiant with spirit. His comprehension of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule broke through certain shackles, reaching a new level.

Fourth Realm.

The Fourth Realm of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule.

Ten thousand years in the Two-Dimensional World, and a hundred years had already passed in the Main Universe.

One hundred and fifty years ago, Lin Yuan comprehended the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule.

One hundred years ago, the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule reached the Second Stage.

Now, a hundred years later, Lin Yuan's comprehension of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule had surpassed the Third Realm and reached the Fourth Realm.

"Although the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule only encompasses the two pillar rules of the Life Rule and the Death Rule—"

"—its essence explicates the Reincarnation Rule. If I hadn't been in this guidance space, it would probably have taken me more than ten times as long to reach this step."

Lin Yuan felt quite emotional inside. This was still thanks to his Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability; no matter how large the Bottlenecks and shackles were, they couldn't hold him back for long.

If it were any other Evolver, it wouldn't just be a matter of time; they probably wouldn't be able to cross it until the end of their Lifespan.

Not to mention other groups, Human Civilization alone had quite a few Eleven-Tier Evolvers trapped in the Third Realm and Fourth Realm of the Pillar-level fusion rule.

Those who could Cultivate to the Eleven-Tier level were without exception the strongest geniuses of a certain era.

"This guidance space is already useless to me."

At this moment, Lin Yuan looked at the surrounding intertwined and fused rules of life and death, feeling no further emotional ripples within. This was because his Realm in this kind of Fusion rule had already reached the same height as the guidance space.

Simply put, this guidance space had been completely mastered by Lin Yuan.

"The Life and Death Reincarnation Rule has reached the Fourth Realm, and several Pillar-level fusion rules like the Great Destruction Rule have also reached the Peak of the Third Realm, and could step into the Fourth Realm at any time."

Lin Yuan thought to himself. Comprehending multiple Fusion rules simultaneously would certainly scatter one's focus and energy, but the simultaneous advancement and collision between multiple Fusion rules could often have an unexpected driving effect for Lin Yuan.

Whether it was the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule or the Great Destruction Rule, both were parts of the Chaos Rules, and their origins were the same.

"I can tell Supreme Being Xia Qin to arrange a Tier 10 Evolver from Human Civilization to take my place," Lin Yuan thought silently to himself.

Since this guidance space no longer had any effect on Lin Yuan, he might as well rent it out. After all, according to the price previously agreed upon with Supreme Being Xia Qin, a single guidance space was worth one hundred million Merit Points.

"Let's go out."

Lin Yuan turned around and left the guidance space.

Outside the guidance space.

Lin Yuan's figure appeared.

The next moment.

Not far away, a Black Robed Man with a rigid expression condensed.

"Why did you come out?" The Black Robed Man was stunned, looking at Lin Yuan with a frown.

Of the twelve guidance spaces on the Black Planet, each life form was only allowed to enter a specific guidance space once.

In other words, repeated entry was not possible.

Lin Yuan had only stayed in the Life and Death Reincarnation Guidance Space for a little over a hundred years before taking the initiative to walk out. According to the rules of the Black Planet, it was impossible to enter the Life and Death Reincarnation Guidance Space again.

This made the Black Robed Man feel somewhat regretful. In just fifty years, Lin Yuan had broken through from the initial entry into the First Realm of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule to the Second Stage.

Not to mention his Aptitude, he was definitely the most monstrous and perverted Tier 10 life in the Black Robed Man's memory.

But no matter how monstrous or perverted he was, leaving the guidance space before reaching the Fourth Realm of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule was extremely foolish.

"Because this guidance space is no longer of any use to me."

Lin Yuan glanced at the Black Robed Man and said.

"No use?" The Black Robed Man didn't react for a moment, and then looked at Lin Yuan in disbelief. "You, you've reached the Fourth Realm?"

Only by reaching the Fourth Realm would one be qualified to say that this guidance space was useless to oneself.

One hundred years ago, Lin Yuan's Life and Death Reincarnation Rule reached the Second Stage, and he inadvertently leaked his aura, disrupting the balance of the life and Death Rules within the guidance space.

This led the Black Robed Man to deduce that Lin Yuan had already reached the Second Stage.

Afterward, when Lin Yuan reached the Third Realm, and just now the Fourth Realm, he had never leaked his aura nor destroyed the balance of life and death within the guidance space, so the Black Robed Man was also unclear about Lin Yuan's specific level.

"Correct."

Lin Yuan nodded and raised his right hand. The power of life and death coiled around his fingertips, and faintly, a vast Reincarnation Great Millstone emerged.

"Really reached the Fourth Realm?"

Seeing the Reincarnation Great Millstone at Lin Yuan's fingertips, the Black Robed Man no longer had any doubts in his heart. Even so, a sense of sheer incredulity surged within him.

He had reached the Fourth Realm just like that?

On the surface, Lin Yuan spent fifty years stepping from the First Realm to the Second Stage, then spent another one hundred years stepping from the Second Stage to the Third Realm, and then from the Third Realm to the Fourth Realm.

The time spent lingering and breaking through at each level was fifty years.

It looked like there was no problem.

But Breakthroughs in Realms were far from being calculated that way.

The higher the level, the more time it took to improve by even a small Realm, far exceeding what came before.

Among the many evolutionary geniuses of Human Civilization, some took only a few hundred to a thousand years to Cultivate from the First Tier to the Seventh Tier, yet they stayed at the Seventh Tier to Eighth Tier for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years.

These were all living examples.

This was even more so when it came to the comprehension of Fusion rules.

In the Black Robed Man's estimation, since Lin Yuan stepped into the Second Stage in fifty years, wanting to step into the Third Realm would probably take five hundred to a thousand years.

Wanting to step into the Fourth Realm would take almost ten thousand years.

This was still built on the premise of Lin Yuan displaying such breathtaking and brilliant Aptitude by stepping into the Second Stage in the first fifty years.

Yet Lin Yuan was good: fifty years from the First Realm to the Second Stage, fifty years from the Second Stage to the Third Realm, and fifty years from the Third Realm to the Fourth Realm.

This meant that Lin Yuan's comprehension speed was getting faster and faster, exhibiting an exponential surge.

"Can you send me out?"

Lin Yuan looked at the somewhat dazed Black Robed Man and spoke.

On the Black Planet, the paths behind the twelve doors were all one-way.

Entering was fine, but as for going out? That required borrowing the power of the Black Robed Man.

"Go out?"

"Alright."

The Black Robed Man quickly reacted. He took a deep look at Lin Yuan, waved his right hand, and sent him to the surface of the Black Planet.

For a moment.

Outside the guidance space, it was empty, leaving only the single figure of the Black Robed Man.

"How could such a monstrous life be born within this Universe?" The Black Robed Man muttered to himself. Most of his memories were incomplete, but he also realized that Lin Yuan's cultivation speed was extremely unreasonable.

Outside the Black Planet.

Lin Yuan's figure appeared.

"Let's go back."

Lin Yuan took a step forward and left the Black Planet.

Right now, he was merely an Incarnation. Compared to a Primordial Spirit Clone, the combat power of an Incarnation was very weak. Therefore, the attitude of the vast majority of Evolvers towards Incarnations was to let them directly dissipate after use.

But in Lin Yuan's view, even a mosquito was meat no matter how small. With the strength of his Incarnation, even though it was far inferior to his true physical body, relying on the application of Space Rules, he could cover hundreds of light-years in a single step and return to the Galaxy Main Star in a short time.

Then he would merge into his true physical body, avoiding the slight loss caused by the dissipation of the Incarnation.

Alien Race Battlefield No. A101.

Beneath a certain permanent spatial rift.

Lin Yuan's Taiyin Primordial Spirit opened its eyes.

Alien Battlefield No. A098, where the Solar Nascent Soul was originally located, was forcefully dimension-reduced by that white paper squeezed into the Universe and no longer existed.

Even the Solar Nascent Soul fell into it.

But no matter what, the accumulation efficiency of the Boundary-Breaking Source Power could not be lowered.

After confirming that the Solar Nascent Soul could not come out in a short time, Lin Yuan had the Taiyin Primordial Spirit re-select a large Alien Race Battlefield to speed up the accumulation of Boundary-Breaking Source Power.

Compared to the absolute safety inside the guidance space, the large Alien Race Battlefield was fraught with danger, so a Clone had to go. As for an Incarnation? With one slight misstep, it would die at the hands of other alien races.

"Over these past hundred years or so, the intensity of the war has decreased quite a bit."

Lin Yuan glanced at the center of the battlefield and thought to himself.

Not only this large Alien Race Battlefield, but the war intensity of other large Alien Race Battlefields, and even Medium Alien Battlefields and Small Alien Battlefields, had all dropped by a huge margin.

The reason for this was related to that white paper spanning across the depths of the Cosmic Starry Sky.

Over one hundred million ten thousand races experts had fallen into it, which was also no small impact for the grand Alliances of the major Peak Groups.

At least there began to be shortages and deficiencies in war reserves.

Even if a large number of ten thousand races experts were eliminated from the Two-Dimensional World within the white paper, facing fundamental losses, they would still need a lot of time to try and recover.

Coupled with the fact that Supreme Powerhouses were all studying that white paper, the top-down influence led to a decrease in the war intensity across major battlefields.

Lin Yuan naturally was happy to see this. The safer the environment, the more conducive it was to accumulating Boundary-Breaking Source Power.

"The amount of my Boundary-Breaking Source Power has already reached nine hundred wisps."

Lin Yuan thought of the Boundary-Breaking Source Power stored within the Gate of Myriad Realms, and a smile appeared on his face.

Over a hundred years, following the accumulation speed of one wisp of Boundary-Breaking Source Power every ninety days under the permanent spatial crack in the large Alien Race Battlefield.

Lin Yuan had accumulated a total of four hundred and five wisps of Boundary-Breaking Source Power.

Added to the nearly five hundred wisps of Boundary-Breaking Source Power he already possessed a hundred years ago.

Combining the two brought Lin Yuan's quantity of Boundary-Breaking Source Power close to a thousand wisps.

"So much Boundary-Breaking Source Power!"

Lin Yuan felt slightly relieved in his heart.

Supported by such a massive amount of Boundary-Breaking Source Power, even if the Solar Nascent Soul were truly lost within that Two-Dimensional World, Lin Yuan would still have sufficient confidence.

Even if the Solar Nascent Soul were fundamentally erased and he couldn't restore it with his Heaven-Defying Comprehension, he could still perform a 'customized' shuttle, letting the Gate of Myriad Realms take him to a world where his Solar Nascent Soul could recover.

Among the myriad Realms and endless dimensions, there would always be a world whose environment could restore his Solar Nascent Soul; it was merely a question of how much Boundary-Breaking Source Power it would cost.

"My current strength should be comparable to a Tier 11 life of the third tier."

After a hundred years of cultivation, Lin Yuan had reached the fourth Realm in Pillar-level fusion rules, but one must know that relying on his own powerful foundation…

When Lin Yuan was at the First Realm, he could already unleash the might of the Second Stage or even the Third Realm of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule. Now that he had reached the fourth Realm, he estimated he could rival the Peak of the Fifth Realm in Pillar-level fusion rules.

And the standard threshold for the third tier of Eleven-Tier lives was to elevate a certain Pillar-level fusion rule to the fifth Realm.

"In a hundred years, I've improved by one tier. Not bad."

Lin Yuan nodded slightly. Among the six levels of Tier 11 life, for any Eleven-Tier expert wishing to cross them, the time spent on each tier was calculated in millions or tens of millions of years.

This was still under the condition of not encountering Bottlenecks and shackles; otherwise, it would far exceed millions or tens of millions of years.

Lin Yuan had only cultivated for a hundred years, yet he was comparable to the third tier of Eleven-Tier; his rate of improvement was simply horrifying.

The most crucial point was that Lin Yuan was not cultivating with the body of a Tier 11 life, but had bridged this gap while still at the Tier 10 life level.

"My comprehension of various Fusion rules has been very smooth, but the Space-Time Rule… is rather difficult."

Lin Yuan's thoughts shifted, and he sighed inwardly.

The Space-Time Rule, whose full name is the Time-Space Fusion Rule, is the most difficult and obscure Fusion rule among all Fusion rules, without exception.

Comprehending the Space-Time Rule is even one of the thresholds for Eleven-Tier experts to charge towards the Ultimate Existence.

One can imagine the importance of the Space-Time Rule.

Comprehending the Space-Time Rule means that the Internal World's space and time become unified, making it more stable and in Perfection, and the transformation into an internal Universe will also be much smoother.

Furthermore, the Space-Time Rule plays a huge role in helping Tier 11 life break free from the shackles of the Time River, allowing Tier 11 life to leap out of the Time River for longer periods, thereby striving for more time to assault the Ultimate.

"Perhaps wanting to comprehend the Space-Time Rule at the Tier 10 level is somewhat unrealistic."

Lin Yuan thought to himself. Even for Tier 11 life, once they comprehend the Space-Time Rule, they leap into the fourth tier. Elevating the Space-Time Rule to the fifth Realm gives them the qualifications to assault the Ultimate.

Lin Yuan wanted to achieve at Tier 10 what only the fourth tier of Tier 11 life could accomplish. This was not purely a matter of combat foundation, but pure comprehension of rules.

Tier 10 life was ultimately a bit too low; it didn't possess the ability of Tier 11 life to easily perceive the fluctuations of time and Space Rules.

"Forget it, even if I haven't mastered the Space-Time Rule, with my Comprehension Ability, as long as I step into Eleven-Tier, I can quickly comprehend it."

Lin Yuan stopped thinking about it.

Galaxy Main Star.

Lin Yuan's true body sat cross-legged.

"Martial Dao Tier 10 Chapter?"

As early as decades ago, Lin Yuan had been considering the creation of the Tier 10 Chapter.

Ever since comprehending the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule, Lin Yuan could be considered Tier 10 Grade A, Peak Tier 10, qualified to create the Martial Dao Tier 10 Chapter. Moreover, Lin Yuan's Life and Death Reincarnation Rule had long since reached the fourth Realm.

"My Martial Dao Tier 10 Chapter must be unique."

For decades, Lin Yuan had tried to create hundreds of beginnings for the Martial Dao Tier 10 Chapter, but none of them satisfied him.

In Human Civilization's evolution paths, from Tier 1 to Eleven-Tier, Tier 10 was neither the most important tier nor the one with the strongest combat power, but it played a connecting role bridging the past and the future.

Especially for the Martial Dao Evolution Path, the Tier 10 Chapter was of paramount importance.

"The Tier 10 path I walked cannot be replicated, so the Martial Dao Tier 10 Chapter should face all Martial Dao Tier 10 Evolvers."

Lin Yuan thought rapidly in his heart, continuously conceiving every detail of the Tier 10 Chapter.

Outside the Galaxy Main Star.

A young-looking man with a somewhat vicissitudinous gaze suddenly appeared.

"I have spent all my accumulated Merit Points and, in the name of the Family, borrowed eighty million Merit Points from Human Civilization, gathering a total of one hundred million Merit Points to exchange for an opportunity that can allow me to take a step further."

This man with a vicissitudinous gaze was named Xuan Yuan Fan, an ancient Tier 10 Evolver of the Xuan Yuan Family.

In terms of strength, Xuan Yuan Fan could rank in the top ten among all Tier 10 Evolvers in Human Civilization, and was much stronger than Deputy Tower Master Nalan before his Breakthrough.

This was because Xuan Yuan Fan had comprehended two Pillar-level fusion rules, among which the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule had even reached the Peak of the First Realm.

However, without stepping into the Second Stage, Xuan Yuan Fan could not assault the Eleven-Tier. Furthermore, wanting to elevate the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule to the Second Stage was no longer a matter of bitter cultivation, but required the stimulation of external forces.

"According to the Old Ancestor's meaning, the Galaxy Star Master controls a Legacy land that can make my Life and Death Reincarnation Rule go further, but it requires paying one hundred million Merit Points."

Xuan Yuan Fan felt a pang of heartache.

Even as an Evolver of the Xuan Yuan Family, constantly fighting for Human Civilization on the battlefield, the Merit Points he had accumulated up to now only amounted to twenty million.

If not for relying on the Family's credit this time, he wouldn't have been anywhere near gathering one hundred million Merit Points.

Even if he gathered enough, he still needed to repay Human Civilization eighty million Merit Points. Even if Xuan Yuan Fan luckily stepped into the Eleven-Tier, it would take millions to tens of millions of years to repay.

"I wonder what kind of Legacy land that is, to actually be worth one hundred million Merit Points? But the Old Ancestor won't lie to me." Xuan Yuan Fan thought to himself.

It was precisely under the suggestion of the Xuan Yuan Family's Old Ancestor that he made such a choice, and the Xuan Yuan Family's Old Ancestor was one of the Nine Supreme Experts of Human Civilization.

"Galaxy Star Master. The strongest Genius in the history of our Human Civilization, who stepped into Tier 10 two hundred years ago…" Xuan Yuan Fan's mind flashed with Lin Yuan's information and data.

"What a lucky kid." Xuan Yuan Fan felt extreme envy in his heart. A Legacy land worth one hundred million Merit Points for just a single entry had a true value that was immeasurable.

Hum.

Not long after Xuan Yuan Fan arrived at the Galaxy Main Star, he contacted Lin Yuan via the virtual network.

A moment later.

A young man appeared not far away.

"Galaxy Star Master." Xuan Yuan Fan looked at the young man who had appeared silently, his expression changing slightly.

His comprehension of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule had also reached the Peak of the First Realm, so he vaguely sensed that within Lin Yuan's body, a vast Reincarnation Great Grinding Disc was faintly condensing.

In front of such a mighty Reincarnation Great Grinding Disc, Xuan Yuan Fan felt like an ant, able to be ground to annihilation at any moment.

"Isn't the Galaxy Star Master a newcomer to Tier 10? Why is his aura so terrifying, and his comprehension of the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule so deep?"

Xuan Yuan Fan was shocked in his heart. Although he didn't know to what extent Lin Yuan's Life and Death Reincarnation Rule had reached, there was no doubt it far exceeded his own.

"Too terrifying! Is this the number one Genius of our Human Civilization?" Originally, Xuan Yuan Fan didn't think much of Lin Yuan, but at this moment, his mind couldn't help but tremble.

"Galaxy Star Master, these are one hundred million Merit Points," Xuan Yuan Fan said respectfully, simultaneously transferring the one hundred million Merit Points to Lin Yuan.

"Mm."

Lin Yuan nodded and also sent over the coordinates where the Black Planet was located.

Nowadays, the Star Domain where the Black Planet was located belonged entirely to Lin Yuan. Without permission, any citizen who intruded into the Black Planet without authorization would be violating the laws of Human Civilization, and Eleven-Tier Evolvers were no exception.

"One hundred million Merit Points have arrived."

Lin Yuan watched as Xuan Yuan Fan respectfully left, in a rather good mood.

At the same time, he looked towards a certain place in the Cosmic Starry Sky; that was the location of the Two-Dimensional World.
