Chapter 267: Invincible Lin Yuan

Seventh Heaven was deathly silent.

All the Supreme Immortal Kings who were fighting, whether born in the Three Thousand Daozhou Era or the Prehistoric Era, all stopped their hands.

They instinctively looked at the figure who tore apart the barrier from Seventh Heaven to Eighth Heaven with an attitude of absolute barbarity and absolute power.

The Nine Heavens of the Spirit Realm, from the First Heaven to the Second Heaven, and from the Second Heaven to the Third Heaven, all the way to Seventh Heaven and Eighth Heaven.

There are two paths.

First, by following the fixed entrances between each heaven, one can enter the higher heaven.

However, there are many tribulations at these fixed entrances, such as endless wind tribulations, ninefold Lightning Tribulations, and so on.

Second, without going through the fixed entrances, one can directly tear open the barriers between the heavens and ascend to a higher heaven.

However——

The barriers between heavens are not so easy to tear apart.

Even for a Supreme Immortal King, wanting to tear open the barrier from the First Heaven to the Second Heaven requires a lot of effort, and it is far less convenient than entering directly from the entrance.

Furthermore, the barriers between heavens become stronger one after another. A normal Supreme Immortal King can tear open the First Heaven to Second Heaven with some effort.

But the barrier from the Second Heaven to the Third Heaven requires a Supreme Immortal King to go all out.

As for the Third Heaven to the Fourth Heaven? Ordinary Supreme Immortal Kings can do nothing about it at all.

In this ascending battle, the reason why Opening Heaven Immortal King and Supreme Immortal King of the Three Thousand Daozhou Era chose to 'ascend' from the entrance leading to Eighth Heaven…

is because this is the simplest method. As for forcibly tearing open the barrier from Seventh Heaven to Eighth Heaven, Opening Heaven Immortal King, Supreme Immortal King, and over twenty other Supreme Immortal Kings joining forces…

might indeed be able to do it, but it would take at least several days and nights.

With this amount of time, the Supreme Immortal Kings of the Prehistoric Era located in Eighth Heaven would have already noticed, and they would likewise wait at ease for the exhausted enemy above the barrier, which is no different from starting a war from the entrance.

Opening Heaven Immortal King, Supreme Immortal King, and more than twenty other Supreme Immortal Kings joining forces would take several days and nights to barely tear open the barrier between Seventh Heaven and Eighth Heaven.

As for the barrier from Sixth Heaven to Seventh Heaven, although it is not as strong as the former, it would certainly require more than twenty Supreme Immortal Kings to join forces and go all out for half a day or even a day or two in order to have a chance of tearing it open.

Yet just now.

How long did it take for that suddenly descending figure to tear apart the barrier from Sixth Heaven to Seventh Heaven? A breath? Or an instant?

Furthermore, this figure seemed to have torn apart not only the barrier from Sixth Heaven to Seventh Heaven; the barriers of the lower five heavens were all barbarically torn apart without causing them to pause even for a fraction of a second.

This kind of strength is too terrifying. Even Experts among the Supreme Immortal Kings like Opening Heaven Immortal King and Supreme Immortal King felt their hearts tremble at this moment.

In addition, the moment that figure appeared, an invisible and terrifying blood Qi Domain covered one-tenth of the area of Seventh Heaven, enveloping all the Supreme Immortal Kings within it.

Compared to the shock of other Supreme Immortal Kings, Lingxu Immortal King was nearly suffocating at this moment. Just by getting close to that figure, the high-level Creation Power within his body fell into a dead silence, not to mention the other six ordinary types of Creation Power.

"You, who exactly are you?"

"An expert from which era?"

Lingxu Immortal King asked with a trembling voice. As a Supreme Immortal King of the Prehistoric Era, Lingxu Immortal King knew very well that for countless tens of thousands of years, the Spirit Realm had experienced epoch after epoch.

The Prehistoric Era? The Three Thousand Daozhou Era were merely the two most recent epochs.

Before these two epochs, there were even more ancient and unfathomable epoch eras.

"Who am I?"

"Didn't you launch a sneak attack on me just now?"

Lin Yuan glanced at Lingxu Immortal King and said in a calm tone.

His Taiji Primordial Spirit was reduced to nothingness under Lingxu Immortal King's Third Realm Great Destruction Power. Although it was partly because Lin Yuan actively dispersed it, it was indeed because of Lingxu Immortal King.

At the instant the Taiji Primordial Spirit was ambushed, Lin Yuan's true body left the Martial Temple and went straight into the Nine Heavens. Following the shortest straight-line principle between two points, he pierced through various spectacles, visions, and heavenly barriers, descending right here.

"A sneak attack on you?"

Lingxu Immortal King was slightly stunned.

Immediately afterwards, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

The Martial Ancestor just now was this person before him?

Lingxu Immortal King found it hard to believe. The strength of the Martial Ancestor was indeed very strong, almost surpassing Opening Heaven Immortal King and Supreme Immortal King.

But that was all.

One-on-one, even without a sneak attack, Lingxu Immortal King was confident he could suppress the Martial Ancestor.

The reason he launched a sneak attack was just to quickly resolve the battle and wipe out the unstable factor of the Martial Ancestor as much as possible.

For Lingxu Immortal King, having lived through long years, he had long stopped caring about whether something was a sneak attack or not.

The other Supreme Immortal Kings around were also closely watching Lin Yuan.

There was no helping it; Lin Yuan's way of appearing was too terrifying. As strong as the heavenly barriers were, before him they were no different from thin paper.

It was simply unimaginable.

"Martial Ancestor? Is he the Martial Ancestor?"

"How is that possible? No, their auras are similar; they truly might be the same person."

Many Supreme Immortal Kings, especially those of the Three Thousand Daozhou Era, were dumbfounded at first. But when they carefully sensed it, they vaguely discovered that the Martial Ancestor who had a good relationship with them indeed shared similarities in aura with the person before them.

The similarity here was a fundamental similarity—mastering the same Creation Power, as well as that mighty power similar to the World Power of the Spirit Realm.

The difference was that if the World Power mastered by the previous Martial Ancestor was like a Dao Province in the Lower Realm…

then a single strand of World Power casually released by the present Martial Ancestor was the vast Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

"Impossible, how, how could you possibly be this strong? Even for a Clone or an Incarnation, the gap with the true body couldn't possibly be this large!"

Lingxu Immortal King muttered to himself, asking the doubt in the hearts of all the Supreme Immortal Kings.

The strength of the two Martial Ancestors before and after differed too vastly. Even knowing that such Experts disdained to lie, Lingxu Immortal King was still unwilling to believe it.

"You don't need to know that."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Yuan's Taiji Primordial Spirit was not much weaker than his true body.

But unfortunately, the Mysterious Gourd brought a tenfold enhancement to the Internal World and Physical Body of the true body.

What concept was a tenfold enhancement? The Internal World went from a radius of 6.8 million miles to 70 million miles. The enhancement to World Power was far more than a hundred or several hundredfold!

Relying precisely on this massive Internal World, Lin Yuan was able to enter Seventh Heaven directly with a crushing posture.

Of course, apart from the Physical Body and the Internal World, the Divine Ability 'Reinforcement' mastered by Lin Yuan also widened the gap between the true body and the Taiji Primordial Spirit.

'Reinforcement' is a Physical Body Divine Ability. Although it can simultaneously enhance the Soul and mental will, its Foundation still lies in the Physical Body. The Taiji Primordial Spirit, being merely a Primordial Spirit entity, cannot use this Divine Ability.

However, the 'Reinforcement' Divine Ability has side effects, and unless it is an absolute last resort, Lin Yuan would not use this trump card.

Hum.

Lin Yuan's mind stirred slightly.

Terrifying World Power followed the space of Seventh Heaven and directly crushed towards Lingxu Immortal King.

Lingxu Immortal King's Physical Body was directly reduced to dust. The high-level Creation Power—Destruction Power, condensed into a sphere and fell into Lin Yuan's hands.

The other several types of ordinary Creation Power were also collected into Lin Yuan's body.

Lin Yuan attached great importance to these Creation Powers, especially the high-level Creation Power. Bringing them back to the Main World would transform them into high-level Cosmic Power, which would be of great benefit to the Tier 9 path.

Swoosh.

After Lingxu Immortal King's Physical Body was shattered.

An illusory Soul body fled outward. As a Supreme Immortal King in the Immortal Dao cultivation system, most of their methods lay in the Soul. Battles between Supreme Immortal Kings rarely decided life and death precisely because Supreme Immortal Kings at worst just abandoned their physical bodies.

As long as they are willing to have their Soul body escape, they can basically always get away.

"Too terrifying!" Lingxu Immortal King's Soul body trembled in fear. Just now under the crushing force of the World Power, he almost failed to even escape his Soul body.

"This Martial Ancestor's background is definitely not simple. He must be a terrifying existence from those very first epochs." Lingxu Immortal King's Soul body tore through the void and fled towards the entrance of Eighth Heaven.

"Can you escape?"

Lin Yuan's figure disappeared from where he was.

The next moment.

Right beside Lingxu Immortal King's Soul body, a palm reached out and grabbed him.

"Ahhhhhh!!"

Lingxu Immortal King's Soul body let out a sharp scream, and immediately afterwards, he was grabbed by Lin Yuan, directly searched for his Soul, and then refined into the purest Soul power.

Eighth Heaven.

Within a side hall of a sprawling complex of palaces.

A man whose face closely resembled Lingxu Immortal King opened his eyes.

As a Supreme Immortal King who survived from the Prehistoric Era, Lingxu Immortal King had many life-saving methods. Even if his true body fell, he could still 'resurrect' within this pre-prepared Physical Body.

Yet at this moment, Lingxu Immortal King had no joy of resurrection at all; his gaze was worried, filled with unease.

"That Martial Ancestor is too terrifying! I had already cultivated Destruction Power to the Third Realm, supplemented by six other Third Realm ordinary Creation Powers, but before that Martial Ancestor, I couldn't even struggle."

Lingxu Immortal King felt his heart grow cold.

Over the long years, from the Prehistoric Era until now, he finally felt the aura of death.

A complete death.

"With the Martial Ancestor's strength, he will likely enter Eighth Heaven very soon," Lingxu Immortal King steadied his mind. "I must inform Niluan Immortal King and the others about this."

In the Prehistoric Era, although Lingxu Immortal King was an outstanding figure among the Supreme Immortal Kings, he was not the strongest.

The ones truly worthy of being called the strongest Immortal Kings of prehistory were Niluan Immortal King and the others who led Lingxu Immortal King and his peers to take control of Eighth Heaven.

These Supreme Immortal Kings mastered several types of high-level Creation Power, and all of them were cultivated to the Third Realm, with unfathomable strength.

Of course.

In Lingxu Immortal King's view, even if Niluan Immortal King and those few strongest Immortal Kings were added together, they would still be far from being opponents to that Martial Ancestor.

At least in front of Niluan Immortal King, he could still put up a challenge for a while, but that Martial Ancestor made him not even dare to give birth to the thought of resisting.

But right now, Lingxu Immortal King had no other way out. The Martial Ancestor entering Eighth Heaven was imminent, and the only ones he could rely on were Niluan Immortal King and the others.

"Niluan Immortal King has studied the entrance to Ninth Heaven for so many years; perhaps he has comprehended some kind of fatal move that can block that Martial Ancestor."

Having experienced the Martial Ancestor's strength, Lingxu Immortal King didn't dare to hope that Niluan Immortal King and the others could repel or even defeat him.

As long as they could barely block him, it would be a blessing from the heavens.

After searching Lingxu Immortal King's Soul, Lin Yuan learned many secrets regarding Eighth Heaven and the Prehistoric Era.

"So that group of Supreme Immortal Kings from the Prehistoric Era was headed by Niluan Immortal King, who comprehended four types of high-level Creation Power and cultivated them all to the Third Realm."

"After the Prehistoric Era ended, Niluan Immortal King led a host of Supreme Immortal Kings to ascend to Eighth Heaven, constantly trying to climb to Ninth Heaven, but they haven't succeeded until now."

Lin Yuan pondered in his heart.

Niluan Immortal King comprehended four types of high-level Creation Power and cultivated them all to the Third Realm; in this aspect, Lin Yuan could not match him.

Although Lin Yuan also comprehended four types of high-level Creation Power, they were all at the First Realm.

But Lin Yuan also mastered a 70-million-mile-radius Internal World. Relying on this mighty Internal World, Lin Yuan did not put Niluan Immortal King in his eyes.

"So much time has passed, and they still haven't ascended to Ninth Heaven?" Lin Yuan was very interested in Niluan Immortal King. The four types of Creation Power mastered by the other party probably included one or two that Lin Yuan hadn't comprehended yet.

"Them?"

Lin Yuan's gaze turned towards the battlefield, looking at the other Supreme Immortal Kings.

"Run!"

"Quickly return to Eighth Heaven."

The Supreme Immortal Kings of the Prehistoric Era fled towards the entrance of Eighth Heaven without hesitation.

Are you kidding?

If we don't run now, are we waiting to follow the same path as Lingxu Immortal King?

Although they didn't know Lin Yuan's exact strength, based solely on the means he used to kill Lingxu Immortal King, he was far beyond what they could deal with.

As for joining forces to resist together…

When the gap in strength reaches a certain degree, numerical advantage is no longer an advantage, unless it is the 'insect swarm tactic' of the Main World.

Otherwise, dozens of Supreme Immortal Kings in front of Lin Yuan would probably be like toys, played with at will.

Lin Yuan did not stop the massive rout of these Supreme Immortal Kings.

Mainly because there was no need; above was Eighth Heaven, and where could these Supreme Immortal Kings possibly escape to?

For a time.

Within Seventh Heaven, only Lin Yuan, Opening Heaven Immortal King, Supreme Immortal King, and more than twenty other Immortal Kings remained.

"Martial Ancestor."

After a moment, Opening Heaven Immortal King mustered his courage, took the initiative to approach Lin Yuan, and tentatively spoke.

"Opening Heaven." Lin Yuan smiled slightly, voluntarily restrained his aura, and casually greeted him.

Over the past three hundred years, Lin Yuan had gotten along quite pleasantly with Opening Heaven Immortal King, Supreme Immortal King, and the other Supreme Immortal Kings, and had no intention of suppressing people with his strength right now.

Lin Yuan's response made Opening Heaven Immortal King breathe a slight sigh of relief. At the very least, Lin Yuan speaking like this meant he regarded him as one of his own people.

He also didn't need to be terrified like those Supreme Immortal Kings of the Prehistoric Era.

"Martial Ancestor, what kind of Creation Power did you actually master?" Seeing this, Supreme Immortal King also came closer and asked with irrepressible curiosity.

The strength Lin Yuan had just displayed was too terrifying. If he hadn't yet possessed certain characteristics above the Immortal King realm of legends, they would have almost thought Lin Yuan had already stepped out that step.

"What kind of Creation Power?"

Lin Yuan shook his head. "It should probably be considered 'World Power'?"

The World Power nurtured by the Internal World is a power completely different from Creation Power and Cosmic Power, relying on the Internal World that was opened up.

There is no need for comprehension; as long as one opens up an Internal World, it can be mastered.
