Chapter 281 Three Supreme Treasures

"Over two thousand years old?" Lin Yuan was also carefully observing that black mirror.

Having experienced eight travels through the Gate of Myriad Realms, the respective stay times were twenty years, eighty years, one hundred and sixty years, three hundred years, five hundred years, six hundred years, thirty years, and nine hundred and twenty years.

All the stay times added together totaled two thousand six hundred and ten years. If the time in the Main World was also counted, Lin Yuan's precise age was two thousand six hundred and thirty years old.

The precise age here referred to the age of mental will, which was also the most fundamental age for judging a living being.

As for the Physical Body age? Soul age? Neither could fundamentally measure the years a lifeform had truly experienced.

After all, the Physical Body could be replaced, and the Soul could be discarded; only the true spirit of mental will was the core of life.

"To actually deduce my true age so precisely?" Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised.

Earlier when meeting Supreme Being Xia Qin, the other party had also perceived Lin Yuan's true age, but it was far less precise than this mirror.

Supreme Being Xia Qin mastered the complete Time Rule, so it was not strange that he could perceive the true years and time Lin Yuan had experienced.

It was just this mirror?

"It must be a Time Rule-type treasure," Lin Yuan guessed inwardly.

Time-type treasures contained the power of time, and only Experts who completely mastered the Time Rule had the ability to refine them.

"How on earth did you Cultivate? In a mere two thousand-plus years, not only did you Cultivate to Tier 8? But you also comprehended so many Cosmic Powers?" The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji could not understand. "Could it be that you have never encountered a Bottleneck or shackle?"

The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji felt somewhat absurd.

The talent currently displayed by Lin Yuan, even at four million or five million years old, could be called unimaginable. As for being over two thousand years old? What could be done in two thousand-plus years?

Was it enough to comprehend one kind of Cosmic Power?

At this moment, the humanoid stone statue had many guesses in its heart.

For instance, was there something wrong with the black mirror?

Or was Lin Yuan the legendary Time Lifeform?

The former was almost impossible to happen. The black mirror was refined by Moyu Tower Master and contained the complete Time Rule. Even if there was a problem with this trial space, it would not have a problem.

As for the latter… Time Lifeforms were born within time, living within the Time River, existing in the past, present, and future. The passage of years and time could not leave any traces on them, which was why it evaded the black mirror's detection?

But even for a great existence like Moyu Tower Master, he had only heard of Time Lifeforms and had never seen one with his own eyes.

The more the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji thought about it, the harder it was to understand.

No matter how perverted a Prodigy was, they should at least conform to basic logic, right? As for Lin Yuan, he shattered its worldview all at once.

What the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji did not know was that Tier 8 strength and dozens of Cosmic Powers were merely a part of Lin Yuan's achievements over the past two thousand-plus years.

Lin Yuan's greatest gain was pioneering the Martial Dao Evolution Path, which was where his true efforts and heart's blood lay.

The Martial Dao Evolution Path was Lin Yuan's strongest backing to become a Supreme Powerhouse in the future. Whether it was Space Rules, other rules, or various Cosmic Powers,

they all served the Martial Dao Evolution Path.

"Perhaps my Comprehension Ability is slightly higher than others?" Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said.

"Slightly higher Comprehension Ability?" The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji remained silent. Was this considered *slightly*?

"Alright, I don't care why you can achieve these things. Based on the talent and potential you have displayed, you can arbitrarily choose three treasures from all the rewards on the first and second floors of the Black Tower."

The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji spoke.

Trainees who normally passed the first floor of the Demon Jade Tower would randomly obtain a certain treasure from the first floor. Among all the treasure rewards on the first floor, this type of treasure basically belonged to the middle-lower tier.

Lin Yuan mobilized dozens of Cosmic Powers, which also included Origin-grade Cosmic Power. His potential was so high that it exceeded the humanoid stone statue's imagination, which was why it decided to let Lin Yuan arbitrarily choose three items among the many treasures on the first floor.

Arbitrarily choosing, and three pieces at that.

It was unknown how much better this was than random bestowal.

But now…

Upon learning that Lin Yuan was only over two thousand years old, the humanoid stone statue changed the selection originally restricted to the first floor's rewards to picking from the rewards of both the first and second floors.

You must know that when the Moyu Tower Master originally opened up this trial space, a separate reward repository was established for each floor. The higher the Black Tower floor, the richer and rarer the corresponding reward repository was.

The reward repository of the second floor was naturally much higher than that of the first floor.

Lin Yuan had only cleared the first floor, yet the range for selecting rewards included the many rewarded treasures in the second floor's reward repository. One could imagine the shock in the humanoid stone statue's heart.

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Yuan basically had no use for the many rewarded treasures in the Black Tower's third floor reward repository, it probably would have wanted to open up the third floor's treasure vault as well.

After saying this, the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji raised its right hand, and layers of light screens appeared before Lin Yuan.

Recorded on them were numerous rare treasures.

"So many treasures?"

Lin Yuan's heartbeat accelerated. The vast majority of the treasures recorded on the reward list had never been heard of before, but through the remarks and explanations of these rewarded treasures, it was certain that they were incomparably precious.

Placed in the Main World, they were enough to make those Tier 9 Experts and Tier 10 Experts break their heads fighting for them.

Like the Primal Refined Gold obtained by Red Kun Star Lord at a huge cost, placed on this reward list, it could only rank near the bottom.

"Too many, far too many."

Lin Yuan looked through it several times, finding it somewhat difficult to choose. Primarily, he had never even heard of the vast majority of the rewarded treasures, although the list provided basic remarks and explanations for each reward.

However, relying solely on these remarks and explanations made it difficult to thoroughly understand this treasure reward and determine whether it was suitable for himself.

"Senior Shen Ji." Lin Yuan shifted his gaze away from the reward list and looked at the humanoid stone statue standing beside him. "I wonder which three rewarded treasures I should choose?"

Lin Yuan found it difficult to choose because he lacked understanding of these rewarded treasures.

However, as the warden of this trial space who governed the bestowal of rewards on each floor, the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji definitely knew the value of every rewarded treasure.

"Let me choose for you?" A strange look appeared on the face of the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji.

Normally speaking, it couldn't be bothered to care about such matters, but after being so lonely for countless years, coupled with the unreasonable and incomprehensible talent Lin Yuan displayed,

the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji was still quite willing to offer its suggestions.

"Are you planning to select the treasure reward with the highest value, or are you planning to select the treasure reward that best suits yourself?"

The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji asked. It had to understand Lin Yuan's needs before it could offer specific suggestions.

"The ones that suit me." Lin Yuan said without hesitation.

Most of the treasures on the reward list were things Lin Yuan had never even heard of, meaning they were probably very difficult to acquire in the Main World.

Therefore, he should choose those suitable for himself as much as possible. After all, no matter how high a treasure's value was, it had to be usable.

"Then I do have some ideas." The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji glanced at Lin Yuan, pondered for a moment, and said earnestly, "Right now, for you, the most important thing is to thoroughly comprehend the complete Space Rules."

"Thoroughly comprehend the complete Space Rules?" Lin Yuan was slightly startled.

"Normal Tier 8 lifeforms indeed do not need to thoroughly comprehend the complete Space Rules to Breakthrough to Tier 9." The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji glanced at Lin Yuan.

"Because given the vastness of the Space Rules, one only needs to comprehend a small half to encompass other rules and achieve Fusion with them."

The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji said.

"Right." Lin Yuan nodded.

The mutual Fusion of the Tai Yin Rule and the Sun Rule required Lin Yuan to completely comprehend both rules before it could be achieved.

This was because the Tai Yin Rule and the Sun Rule were at the same level, so if he wanted to fuse them, he had to comprehend both completely.

However, the Space Rules were pillar rules, and their vastness far exceeded ordinary rules by an unknown amount. The Fusion of Space Rules with ordinary rules did not require thorough comprehension.

"But this is under normal circumstances." The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji sighed. "Even if certain Tier 8 lifeforms comprehend several Cosmic Powers, when they Breakthrough to Tier 9, the Cosmic Powers along with ordinary rules merge into the Space Rules."

"Basically, the impact is not significant."

Speaking up to this point, the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji paused for a moment. "But you have comprehended far too many Cosmic Powers, which also includes an Origin-grade Cosmic Power."

"If you want to step into Tier 9, you must comprehend the complete Space Rules."

"And only the complete Space Rules can carry those dozens of Cosmic Powers you have comprehended."

After saying this, the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji stopped speaking.

"So that's how it is." Lin Yuan suddenly understood in his heart.

No wonder he recently felt a sense of strain when comprehending rule Fusion; it turned out that the Space Rules he had comprehended so far were not enough.

This could not be blamed on Lin Yuan for not realizing it. The Human Alliance's descriptions in the Main World regarding how to cross into Tier 9 did not mention how to achieve Fusion after comprehending dozens of Cosmic Powers at all.

Coupled with the fact that Lin Yuan had not exposed the matter of comprehending dozens of Cosmic Powers, others could not offer advice even if they wanted to.

"Therefore, the first treasure I suggest you choose is Void Interpretation." The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji said slowly.

"Void Interpretation?" Lin Yuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately found the introduction and explanation of this treasure on the reward list.

Void Interpretation: It is the Moyu Tower Master's understanding and interpretation of space.

The introduction and explanation were very short. The only thing that caught Lin Yuan's attention was that this Void Interpretation came from the Moyu Tower Master.

"The Space Rules are boundless and endless. The so-called complete mastery of Space Rules is merely mastering one side of them. The Void Interpretation written by the master interprets and understands the Space Rules from another perspective."

"For you, it should be of great use. Even if you comprehend the complete Space Rules in the future, it will still have an effect."

The humanoid stone statue looked at Lin Yuan and said earnestly.

"Alright."

"I choose this one."

Lin Yuan said immediately.

What kind of existence was the Moyu Tower Master? Even a few words written by him were of immeasurable value, let alone a complete copy of Void Interpretation!

Therefore, after hearing the suggestion of the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji, Lin Yuan made up his mind.

"Very well."

A smile appeared on the face of the humanoid stone statue Shen Ji.

Although Lin Yuan's talent and Aptitude were extremely rare in the world, it is estimated that even when the Moyu Tower Master was at Tier 8, he was far inferior.

However, no matter how Heaven-Defying an Aptitude was, it still needed to walk on the correct path to be effective. In the reward repositories of the first and second floors of the Nine-Layer Black Tower, there was no lack of weapon treasures that could boost combat power by a large margin.

However, on the path of life's evolution, the usefulness of combat power was far lower than the metamorphosis of life itself.

"This is Void Interpretation, the master's painstaking masterpiece. I hope you can comprehend it well." The humanoid stone statue waved its right hand.

A silver-white book appeared in the air. The book was over a meter tall, exuding faint space fluctuations. Looking at that book, Lin Yuan felt as if he saw the boundless Space Rules.

"This—"

Lin Yuan stared at the silver-white book. One silver-white character after another began to detach from the book, approaching Lin Yuan, and all of them merged into his glabella.

Silver-white characters came one after another. Each silver-white character contained a massive amount of information; recorded in the words of Human Civilization, it was estimated that tens of millions of characters would still fall far short of expressing it.

Ultimately, after three thousand three hundred and thirty-three silver-white characters merged into Lin Yuan's glabella, the entire silver-white book began to disintegrate and vanished.

Lin Yuan closed his eyes.

At the same time,

on the Galaxy Main Star, Lin Yuan's true main body also closed its eyes.

The three thousand three hundred and thirty-three silver-white characters emerging deep within his mind emitted a silver-white light. Lin Yuan carefully browsed each character, never having discovered that the information expressed by just a single character could be so vast and profound.

[Your Comprehension Ability is Heaven-Defying, you observe mysterious characters, and your comprehension of the Space Rules rapidly improves.]

[Your Comprehension Ability is Heaven-Defying, you observe mysterious characters, and your comprehension of the Space Rules rapidly improves.]

[Your Comprehension Ability is Heaven-Defying, you observe mysterious characters, and your comprehension of the Space Rules rapidly improves.]

In every instant, a massive amount of inspiration regarding space surged into his mind. Lin Yuan had never thought that space could be comprehended in this way. It was not purely comprehending space, but rather comprehending the Five Elements, comprehending thunder, comprehending light, and so on, and then going from the shallow to the deep to comprehend space.

Hum.

In just a moment,

Lin Yuan felt that he had continuously comprehended four core space models.

"I've hit the jackpot."

Lin Yuan steadied his mind, reluctantly shifting his attention away from the silver-white characters in his mind.

"As expected of the Moyu Tower Master's understanding and interpretation of space." Lin Yuan was thrilled and excited. "Every single character contains endless profundity. This is an explanation of space distinct from the perspective of Human Civilization."

Lin Yuan took a deep breath.

He had a feeling that even a Supreme Powerhouse would have numerous realizations upon viewing this Void Interpretation.

Supreme Powerhouses thoroughly comprehended the complete Time Rule and complete Space Rules, but every Supreme Powerhouse's understanding of the Time Rule and Space Rules was different.

The Nine-Layer Black Tower.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

Void Interpretation was currently being fully comprehended by his true main body, which even temporarily set aside the Fusion of rules for this. After all, without thoroughly comprehending the complete Space Rules, the subsequent Fusion of the Taiji Rule and the Fusion of various Cosmic Powers would have greatly reduced efficiency.

"Alright."

The humanoid stone statue Shen Ji looked at Lin Yuan and said in a gentle tone, "As for the second treasure, I suggest you choose this one."

The humanoid stone statue's thoughts moved slightly, and an image appeared before them.

Within the image, a young sapling swayed, rippling with endless and boundless World Power.
