Chapter 14 Return

In a daze.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes once again.

Bed, bookshelf, photographs.

Lin Yuan looked over and finally let out a gentle sigh of relief.

"Have I returned?"

Looking at everything familiar around him, Lin Yuan felt as if a lifetime had passed.

Just a moment ago, he was still in the Martial Dao World where he had stayed for twenty full years.

Now, he had returned to the Cosmic Human Alliance that spanned the sea of stars.

"Right. Let's see how much time has passed."

After feeling a wave of emotion, Lin Yuan immediately checked the time.

Although judging from the current environment, Lin Yuan deduced that not much time should have passed.

Otherwise, given his state of consciousness leaving his body to descend upon another world, his parents would have long since dragged him to the hospital for treatment.

But he still needed to pay attention to exactly how many minutes or hours had passed.

"Only ten minutes have passed?"

After confirming the current time, Lin Yuan was slightly dazed.

The twenty years spent in the Martial Dao World were merely ten minutes in the Main World.

"Is the time flow rate between the two worlds different?"

Before the travel, the Gate of Myriad Realms had already reminded Lin Yuan.

There was a difference in time flow rate between the traversed world and the current world.

But Lin Yuan did not expect the time flow rate to differ by this much.

Ten minutes compared to twenty years.

Since ancient times, there has been the saying, 'A day in the Immortal Realm is a year in the mortal world.'

The time flow rate of a higher world is far slower than that of a lower world.

Compared to the Main World, the Martial Dao World clearly belonged to a lower world.

The magnitude of the difference was even far greater than that between the Immortal Realm and the mortal world.

This could be seen from the comparison of the time flow rates.

Pondering for a moment, Lin Yuan's mind sank into his consciousness.

There, a tall and majestic 'Gate' was floating.

Upon closer inspection, the Gate of Myriad Realms at this moment was significantly dimmer.

Its edges were lighting up bit by bit.

Once the entire Gate of Myriad Realms was completely lit up, Lin Yuan would be able to carry out a second traversal.

Just as Lin Yuan's mind was gazing at the Gate of Myriad Realms, streams of information were transmitted over once again.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yuan rubbed the space between his eyebrows.

Having experienced the first traversal, more functions of the Gate of Myriad Realms flooded into Lin Yuan's mind.

The first was the traversal method.

Aside from the traversal method of consciousness descent.

Through the Gate of Myriad Realms, Physical Body traversal could also be performed.

However, this method of traversal consumed even more of the Gate of Myriad Realms.

It required at least several years of time to accumulate energy.

You must know that Lin Yuan's normal consciousness descent traversal method could be performed once every eight months to a year.

"Physical Body traversal."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, not quite optimistic about this traversal method.

Physical Body traversal had many conveniences, such as not needing to Cultivate from scratch, and so on.

But the disadvantages were also very obvious, which was that once dead, you were truly dead.

With the consciousness descent traversal method, even if the body died, it was merely the consciousness returning to the main body.

There was still a chance to start over.

Of course, Lin Yuan did not completely negate Physical Body traversal either.

At least it could be used as a certain life-saving measure.

For example, if Lin Yuan encountered some kind of life-and-death crisis in the Main World.

He could completely escape to another world through Physical Body traversal.

And return after the crisis passed.

Or he could utilize the difference in time flow rates between the two worlds,

Complete a Breakthrough in another world, and then return to the Main World to turn the tables, and so on.

Aside from adding the Physical Body traversal method,

the information transmitted by the Gate of Myriad Realms also mentioned that by expending a certain price, items from other worlds could be brought back.

This point did not catch Lin Yuan by surprise.

Since even people could undergo traversal, it made no sense that other things could not.

"Innate Internal Qi."

After absorbing the information transmitted by the Gate of Myriad Realms, Lin Yuan's thoughts moved slightly, and a wisp of Innate Internal Qi naturally condensed within his Dantian Qi Sea.

In the Martial Dao World, Lin Yuan merely comprehended the superior martial art Great Arhat Buddha Fist, and smoothly condensed internal qi in the body of a child.

Let alone now that he had already surpassed the myth level?

Lin Yuan named this level that surpassed the myth level the Carefree Realm.

Once entering this Realm, with the heavens high and earth vast, he was carefree to do as he pleased.

This was the Carefree Realm.

If it weren't for the fact that advancing to Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, or even the myth Realm required massive external energy and could not be achieved overnight,

Lin Yuan estimated that a single thought would now suffice.

Once the Realm was reached, all improvements would naturally follow like water flowing to form a channel.

"Right now, I should count as an Evolver, right?"

Lin Yuan manipulated the Innate Internal Qi to circulate throughout his body, thinking silently in his heart.

The definition of an Evolver by the Cosmic Human Alliance was very clear—mastering power that ordinary people could not master.

The power here was a general term,

such as the 'Mind Power' of a Mind Great Master,

the 'Superpower' of a Superpower Warlock, and so on.

All fell within its scope.

Although the strength of the Innate Internal Qi condensed by Lin Yuan was not high, it was clearly something ordinary people could not master.

Thump, thump, thump.

The door of the room suddenly rang.

"Brother, Brother, it's me, it's me."

A tender female voice came over.

Lin Yuan looked up and knew it was his six-year-old younger sister.

After the compulsory conscription notice came down, his parents were properly settled, and his young sister was no exception.

Before even entering primary school, she already had a study quota for a Higher Academy.

Such heaven-sent wealth was envied by countless people.

Standing up.

Opening the door.

Lin Yuan saw his young sister.

"Brother, eat the cake."

The younger sister held the cake and said with a wronged expression.

It was obvious that giving the cake to Lin Yuan to eat was not out of the younger sister's own accord.

Lin Yuan glanced at the living room and found that although his parents were both doing their own things, they were secretly paying attention to this side.

The matter of compulsory conscription was equivalent to sacrificing Lin Yuan alone in exchange for the family's wealth and glory, and his parents felt quite awful inside.

After all, Lin Yuan was their son, and after getting along for so many years, there was naturally a deep bond of affection.

But they could not change it either; this was the decision of the Human Alliance government.

Compulsory conscription, compulsory conscription.

Why add the word "compulsory" to the front?

His parents wanted to comfort Lin Yuan, but were afraid of stimulating him,

so they could only let the younger sister hold her beloved little cake and give it to Lin Yuan to eat.

"Hmm, not bad."

Lin Yuan took the small cake from his younger sister's hands and ate it in one bite under her eager gaze.

Needless to say, having finished condensing the Innate Internal Qi, Lin Yuan's stomach was just right for food; although this piece of cake was merely a drop in the bucket, it was exceptionally sweet and delicious.

"Is it delicious, Brother?"

The younger sister looked at Lin Yuan with her big eyes, and tears faintly began to swirl in them.

"Especially delicious."

Lin Yuan nodded, expressing affirmation.

"Wa—"

"Such a delicious cake, why did Brother eat it all?"

The younger sister burst into tears all at once and turned to run towards the living room.

Closing the door of the room, Lin Yuan fell into deep thought.

Now that he was already an Evolver, he could be exempt from conscription. Logically speaking, he should tell his parents.

However, regarding the matter of being an Evolver, it was best to obtain the Evolver certificate to be more secure.

Only by doing so would he be considered registered, have official proof, and be able to apply for exemption from conscription.

Lin Yuan planned to make a trip to the Evolver Association tomorrow, and after obtaining the Evolver certificate, announce this matter to his parents.

Otherwise, even if he said it, his parents might not necessarily believe it. How could a normal son suddenly become an Evolver?

Anyway, there was still nearly half a month left until the conscription date.

According to the provisions of the Cosmic Human Alliance Charter, as long as one had not entered the military district warship, they could be exempt from conscription in the identity of an Evolver.
