Chapter 291: Eighth Level Citizens

Battlefield B0001 was a battlefield where Human Civilization and the Heaven Wing Clan, two Peak Groups, clashed.

Although the scale of forces invested by both sides was not large, that was compared to large-scale battlefields.

The total Merit Points gained from a single war waged across the entire battlefield, even if only a tenth, was a massive figure.

It was enough to make those high-and-mighty Evolutionary Grand Scholars 'risk their lives' for tens of thousands or even one hundred thousand years.

"Twenty-seven million Merit Points."

Lin Yuan confirmed the quantity of the newly arrived Merit Points, a smile appearing on his face.

This figure completely matched Lin Yuan's psychological expectations and even far exceeded them.

You must know that when Lin Yuan created the complete Martial Dao Eighth Order Chapter, the judgment by the Three Goddesses was only twenty-two million Merit Points.

Admittedly, whether it was the Martial Dao Eighth Order Chapter, or the Rank 1 Chapter, Rank 2 Chapter…

Even if Lin Yuan uploaded them, their ownership still belonged to him.

The Human Civilization official authorities acted equivalent to an 'intermediary', and ultimately still needed to give Lin Yuan his cut.

But an income close to thirty million Merit Points could definitely be considered a huge profit.

"This is making a fortune from war."

Lin Yuan thought to himself. In times of peace, wanting to save up so many Merit Points would require God knows how much trouble.

But now, it was achieved in just a single war.

Of course, Lin Yuan also understood that even on the Alien Race Battlefield, wanting to acquire so many Merit Points was something that could only be met by chance and not sought by demand.

First, one had to experience a war of sufficient intensity and win the war.

If this war with the Heaven Wing Clan ended in a defeat or a draw for humans, the Merit Points allocated to Lin Yuan would inevitably be far lower than twenty-seven million.

Secondly, it was like Lin Yuan, directly taking a cut from the total Merit Points.

Lin Yuan had this treatment, but other Eighth Order Invincibles did not have this qualification. For the vast majority of Eighth Order Invincibles, obtaining one hundred thousand to two hundred thousand Merit Points in this war was already the limit.

A war of sufficient intensity often lasted for decades or a century. Before launching the all-out war, the Heaven Wing Clan had already been fighting against Human Evolvers for more than a hundred years.

Only after realizing that Human Civilization was unable to attend to other matters did they decide to instigate an all-out war.

"In addition to the Merit Points, there are also those eight Grade 9 secret treasures, as well as one space secret treasure." Lin Yuan raised his right hand.

Nine palm-sized weapons floated in front of him, slowly rotating, emitting a terrifying aura.

Lin Yuan actively suppressed his strength, inducing the Heaven Wing Clan to send Eighth-Order life forms holding Grade 9 secret treasures to their deaths one by one. It looked like the Heaven Wing Clan was exceptionally foolish.

But in reality, this was built upon not knowing Lin Yuan's true strength.

Before Lin Yuan pierced through the battlefield, even Peak Groups would never have thought that there could be such a powerful Eighth-Order life form.

Killing Eighth Order Invincibles was like butchering chickens.

Possessing combat power surpassing ordinary Grade 9s.

Experts from the two Peak Groups were watching both sides of the battlefield. Unable to directly determine Lin Yuan's true strength, they could only send their own Experts to probe.

As for why they didn't send them together?

Every time Lin Yuan attacked, the advantage he displayed wasn't very large. Who would play all their trump cards right from the start?

In fact, even sending them together wouldn't affect the outcome. Lin Yuan's current strength, even if it was just a Clone, was an unsolvable existence at the eighth-order level.

"These nine secret treasures average between five hundred thousand cubic cosmic crystals and one million cubic cosmic crystals each. Added together, they won't be less than 4.5 million cubic cosmic crystals, and if higher, they are worth nine million cubic cosmic crystals."

Lin Yuan made a slight estimation, and the smile on his face could not be stopped.

Having just ended the eighth traversal, Lin Yuan was still heartbroken over the eighty thousand cubic Taiwei Pure Crystal, yet not long after, he possessed a fortune of several million to tens of millions of cubic cosmic crystals.

Such a sum of cosmic crystals could be considered wealthy even among Grade 9 Experts.

"My Merit Points right now should be enough to upgrade to Eighth Level Citizens."

Lin Yuan suddenly thought.

Upgrading from a Seven-Level Citizen to Eighth Level Citizens required fifty million Merit Points.

Lin Yuan uploaded the Martial Dao Eighth Order Chapter and received a reward of twenty-two million Merit Points. Added with the previous remaining ones, he had a total of twenty-six million Merit Points.

Now, counting the twenty-seven million Merit Points that had just arrived,

Lin Yuan's total number of Merit Points reached a staggering fifty-three million.

"Let's directly upgrade to Eighth Level Citizens."

Lin Yuan did not hesitate and contacted the Goddess of Wisdom to upgrade his citizen Rank.

Every increase in citizen Rank had to be under the attention of the Goddess of Wisdom, mainly to ensure that the channels through which the citizen acquired Merit Points were legal and compliant.

"Respected Scholar Lin Yuan, your citizen Rank has been upgraded to the eighth level."

The solemn and cold voice of the Goddess of Wisdom came over.

"Eighth Level Citizens."

Lin Yuan glanced at the citizen Rank column, which had changed from 'Seven' to 'Eight'.

Eighth Level Citizens represented a qualitative change. Often, a Star Alliance ruling hundreds or thousands of Star Domains would only have three or four Eighth Level Citizens in the same era.

Even many Evolutionary Grand Scholars' citizen Ranks had not reached the eighth Rank. Fifty million Merit Points were too difficult to obtain, requiring Evolutionary Grand Scholars to continuously research and develop achievements that promoted human development.

Even without being limited to evolutionary pathways, over the past two million plus years, as Evolutionary Grand Scholars paved the way one after another, this way of acquiring Merit Points had become increasingly difficult.

"The privileges of Eighth Level Citizens—"

Just at the moment Lin Yuan upgraded to Eighth Level Citizens,

emails were sent one after another from the Central Star Region of Human Civilization.

Aside from congratulations, they introduced the benefits and privileges of Eighth Level Citizens.

Compared to Seven-Level Citizens, the numerous benefits and privileges of Eighth Level Citizens were undoubtedly elevated to a massive degree.

First was the Eighth-Order Evolution Potion, which could forcibly elevate a Seventh-Order Evolver to the eighth order. Although it only had the basic destructive power of the eighth order and fell far short of being as Perfection as Eighth-Order Evolvers who had opened up an Internal World and experienced the Heart Demon Tribulation,

such forcibly elevated Eighth-Order Evolvers couldn't even defeat some Peak seventh-order Evolvers.

But at least in terms of Lifespan, they were no worse than normal Eighth-Order Evolvers.

This was also what the official authorities of Human Civilization expected. As long as Eighth Level Citizens were alive, they had the potential to create massive value for Human Civilization.

As for combat power? Human Civilization had not declined to the point where it needs Eighth Level Citizens to defend the continuation of the race.

What were all those Evolvers and Star Masters good for?

"Automatically become the General Speaker of the Northern Cold Star Alliance?"

Lin Yuan glanced at one of the privileges of Eighth Level Citizens.

The Northern Cold Star Alliance was the Star Alliance where the current Milky Way Star Territory was located. It belonged to a newly opened Star Alliance, encompassing 1,335 Star Domains.

The General Speaker was the highest-status person in a Star Alliance. Although they could not directly command the various Star Masters within the Star Alliance, they had a massive influence on the Star Domains within the alliance.

They could even dismiss or reassign a Star Master based on their actions.

Currently, because the Northern Cold Star Alliance was a newborn Star Alliance, a General Speaker had not yet been born. Lin Yuan could now be considered the first General Speaker.

In other words, Lin Yuan today was undoubtedly the person with the highest status in the Northern Cold Star Alliance.

Especially in this fringe Star Domain Star Alliance, where the division of various Star Domains had not yet stabilized, the power of the General Speaker was even more terrifyingly immense.

"Respected Eighth Level Citizen Scholar Lin Yuan, would you like to hide your identity as the General Speaker?"

The solemn and cold voice of the Goddess of Wisdom came over.

The names of council members of various Star Alliances would be listed on the council member roster, and the name of the General Speaker would likewise be placed on a higher-level roster.

"Hide it."

Lin Yuan nodded.

Exposing his identity as the General Speaker would only bring disadvantages and no benefits to him. In any case, he could still enjoy all the rights belonging to the General Speaker.

"Eighth Level Citizens can also establish Evolver Families with the prefix 'Human'?"

Lin Yuan continued browsing the rights of Eighth Level Citizens, and upon seeing this item, his heart was suddenly startled.

The Evolver Families of Human Civilization were countless, and even every day a large number of Evolver Families were established and perished.

But Evolver Families that could add the two characters 'Human' to their Family prefix were incomparably rare, and almost never perished.

Evolver Families with the two characters 'Human' as their prefix were protected by the entire Human Civilization. Unless they committed acts of 'betraying the race', such families coexisted with Human Civilization.

All Evolver Families regarded the 'Human' prefix as their highest goal; this was an unprecedented honor.

"I didn't expect that becoming an Eighth Level Citizen would actually grant such qualifications."

Lin Yuan inwardly marveled. The numerous privileges and benefits of high-level Eighth Level Citizens were all protected by confidential blockades.

Without reaching that level, one simply wouldn't know what privileges and treatments existed.

"Evolver Family with the Human Prefix."

Lin Yuan's thoughts drifted.

For instance, if he were to establish an Evolver Family now, the name could be called 'Human Lin Family'.

Members of Evolver Families with Human as the prefix could enjoy the favoritism of the Three Goddesses and a certain degree of resource inclination.

"Other privileges."

Lin Yuan composed himself and continued reading downwards.

Many of the privilege benefits and treatments possessed by Eighth Level Citizens were sublimation versions of Seven-Level Citizens. For example, Seven-Level Citizens enjoyed a guard team entirely composed of Seventh-Order Evolvers.

Eighth Level Citizens enjoyed a guard team composed of Eighth-Order Evolvers.

However, this aspect had no meaning to Lin Yuan.

A guard team composed of Eighth-Order Evolvers? With Lin Yuan's current strength, Eighth Order Invincibles could be killed with a flick of his hand, let alone ordinary Eighth-Order Evolvers.

Virtual World, a mysterious space.

The towering figures of five Supreme Powerhouses, including Supreme Being Xia Qin, Gu Li Supreme Expert, and Supreme Being Yu Die, appeared, sitting majestically upon tall master seats.

"Hehehe, that bunch of trash from the Heaven Wing Clan actually wanted to take the opportunity to make a move against us humans." Supreme Being Xia Qin let out a sneer.

Human Civilization and the Heaven Wing Clan were both Peak Groups. The Supreme Powerhouses and ancestors of both sides had fought each other. Supreme Being Xia Qin held great disdain for the ancestors of the Heaven Wing Clan.

Because that group of birdmen never dared to fight him head-on, always relying on the 'authority' of their own evolutionary pathways to hide and fight.

"The Heaven Wing Clan really suffered a loss this time." Supreme Being Yu Die chuckled and said.

Everything that happened on Battlefield B0001 was seen by their eyes, and they were even speculating whether those few ancestors of the Heaven Wing Clan would fly into a rage out of humiliation and personally enter the fray regardless of status.

Lin Yuan deliberately showed weakness, inducing those few Geniuses of the Heaven Wing Clan to voluntarily come up and send themselves to their deaths. Even though these Geniuses were only Clones, their faces were completely disgraced.

Especially for Supreme Powerhouses, overlooking the Cosmic Starry Sky, fearless and invincible, there weren't many things they cared about, but they certainly cared about their own face.

The juniors within their clan were pinned to the ground and recklessly killed by a human junior; if this wasn't losing face, what was?

"Having said that, that little fellow Galaxy Star Master's strength is unreasonably strong. Aside from those extremely rare and even unique special life forms, can the Evolvers of our Human Civilization also achieve suppressing Grade 9s with the eighth order?"

Gu Li Supreme Expert couldn't help saying.

Although he was a Supreme Powerhouse, he asked himself in his heart, when he was at the eighth order, he definitely did not have such terrifying combat power as Lin Yuan.

"Let me take a look."

Supreme Being Xia Qin looked ahead, and scene after scene emerged—it was precisely the scene of Lin Yuan attacking on the battlefield.

"Comprehending the complete Space Rules and completing half of the process in Rule Fusion, but the fused power is excessively strong."

Supreme Being Xia Qin nodded slightly.

Even though he knew that Lin Yuan had comprehended three kinds of high-level Cosmic Power and the complete Space Rules, and that the Fusion of the two would definitely have extraordinary might, wasn't this a bit too extraordinary?

"Perhaps the evolutionary pathway created by this little fellow is special?" Supreme Being Yu Die smiled and said, "However, the stronger this little fellow is, isn't it a good thing? For our Human Civilization to be able to give birth to such a Genius, it will only become stronger and stronger in the future."

"That's true."

Supreme Being Xia Qin and Gu Li Supreme Expert nodded slightly.

Only thus could Human Civilization flourish forever.

"Right."

"Calculating the time, that Universe Secret Realm is about to open, right?"

Supreme Being Yu Die suddenly said.

"That Universe Secret Realm." Supreme Being Xia Qin frowned.

The so-called Universe Secret Realm was a Small World relying on the Main World.

They were originally hidden deep within layers of space, but due to some reason, they formed a connection with the main space layer.

The Black Abyss Clan in the Zerg Grand Alliance was the indigenous race within the Black Abyss Secret Realm.

The space layer where the Black Abyss Secret Realm was located formed a channel with the Universe's main space. The Supreme Powerhouses of the Zerg jointly dragged the Black Abyss Secret Realm forcibly into the main space.

Only then did the Black Abyss Clan come into existence.

"The last time that Universe Secret Realm opened was two hundred thousand years ago. I remember our Human Civilization suffered quite a lot of losses—"

Gu Li Supreme Expert said.

"But the harvest was also not small."

Supreme Being Yu Die replied.

Galaxy Main Star.

Lin Yuan was fully comprehending the 'chaos crystal'.

This treasure accidentally obtained by the Moyu Tower Master had great indicative significance for Lin Yuan's Rule Fusion.

Although there was no specific 'demonstration' of the Fusion of Space Rules, Taiji Rule, and various types of Cosmic Power inside the chaos crystal,

observing the Fusion of other rules, especially the Fusion between basic rules and pillar rules, gave Lin Yuan a great touch of inspiration internally.

Drawing inferences about ten things from one instance.

Drawing inferences about a hundred things from one instance.

"Once the Space Rules, Taiji Rule, and numerous Cosmic Powers completely fuse, there will definitely be a massive transformation. By then, the might of the fused power will definitely not be comparable to just fusing half of it."

Lin Yuan thought while comprehending.

After the Fusion progress exceeded half, Lin Yuan distinctly perceived that it was becoming increasingly difficult.

But with Heaven-Defying Comprehension, coupled with the 'chaos crystal', and occasionally reviewing Void Interpretation,

Lin Yuan's Fusion speed still advanced at a pace that ordinary eighth-order Peak Evolvers found difficult to match.

On this day.

Lin Yuan was constantly attempting to fuse the rules.

Suddenly,

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

"Teacher is looking for me?"

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, split off a shred of consciousness, connected to the Virtual World, and went to see Red Kun Star Lord.
