Chapter 428: Refining the Supreme Weapon

In a daze,

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

"I'm back."

Feeling the vast and unfathomable rule fluctuations of the Main Universe, a smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

During the last twenty-plus years in the Boundless Void, Lin Yuan's progress in rule comprehension was slow.

One of the main reasons was that the rule ocean of the Boundless Void was too shallow.

You could see the bottom at a single glance.

But the Main Universe?

Lin Yuan saw the hope of a massive enhancement in rule comprehension.

"In the Boundless Void, the Space-Time Sixfold Realm is already the limit. Wanting to reach the Space-Time Sevenfold Realm is theoretically impossible."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

In fact, even the Space-Time Sixfold Realm was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

The reason why Secret Realm pioneers and the Void Son could step into the tenth stage,

Relied on their own talent and Aptitude.

However, now.

Lin Yuan could feel the even more vast and profound space-time fluctuations beyond the Space-Time Sixfold Realm.

Of course, feeling them was one thing.

Whether one could comprehend them was another matter.

For example, when an ordinary person sees a towering distant mountain, seeing it and walking to it are not the same concept.

After Lin Yuan comprehended the Space-Time Sixfold Realm, he did not continue deeper.

Aside from the restrictions of the Boundless Void, it was also because his own attained height was too low.

Comprehending the Space-Time Sixfold Realm at Tier 10?

At least in the Main Universe, he didn't know if there would be anyone after him, but there was definitely no one before him.

As for comprehending the Space-Time Sevenfold Realm? Lin Yuan didn't have this thought for the time being.

"The space-time of the Cosmic Starry Sky is simply too vast."

At this moment, Lin Yuan's understanding of the Cosmic Starry Sky compared to before his shuttle had changed drastically.

Before undergoing the tenth shuttle, Lin Yuan's Realm of space-time was merely at the Second Stage, but now it was already at the Space-Time Sixfold Realm, with every detail of space-time rushing into his eyes.

"Too vast, too magnificent."

Lin Yuan observed carefully, marveling in his heart.

If the Boundless Void were compared to a narrow space of a few square meters, Lin Yuan only needed to take a step or a few steps to reach any location.

Then the entire Cosmic Starry Sky was a football field.

Even with the comprehension of the Space-Time Sixfold Realm, he couldn't achieve 'appearing wherever a thought arises' like in the Boundless Void.

This was the gap in space-time breadth between the Main Universe and the Boundless Void.

In the Cosmic Starry Sky, let alone Lin Yuan whose space-time comprehension merely reached the Space-Time Sixfold Realm, even Twelfth Order Supreme Powerhouses could not achieve 'appearing wherever a thought arises'.

Within the vast territories of the Main Universe, there were occasionally scattered space-time perilous lands.

There existed layers of space-time mazes there.

Even with the comprehension of the Space-Time Sixfold Realm, one could not cross them directly.

"However, with my current mastery over space-time, coupled with Space-Time Nine Steps."

"Unless an expert personally pursues and hunts me down, it is equivalent to standing in an invincible position."

Lin Yuan's heart settled.

Even though he couldn't be 'ubiquitous' in the Main Universe like in the Boundless Void, his spatial traversal capability far surpassed that before the shuttle.

Coupled with Space-Time Nine Steps.

Let alone below Supreme Powerhouses, Lin Yuan had a feeling,

That even a Twelfth Order Supreme Powerhouse wanting to catch up to him,

Would probably have to wait until after five or six steps,

Or simply wait until after crossing all nine steps before there was any hope.

The Xuanhuang Lineage's escape secret technique Space-Time Nine Steps was unquestionable in its escaping speed.

This was a Dao-protecting secret technique specially created for the descendants of the Xuanhuang Lineage by His Majesty Xuan Huang, who traversed the Chaos Void.

Although Lin Yuan was confident that in terms of escaping, a Supreme Powerhouse could not guarantee to catch up to him within nine steps.

But he wouldn't be foolish enough to offend a Supreme Powerhouse.

If a Supreme Powerhouse wanted to kill a life form below the Twelfth Order, why would they need to personally catch up?

A Soul attack would be enough.

"My current strength…"

Lin Yuan began to examine himself.

Before conducting the tenth shuttle, Lin Yuan's positioning of his combat power was at the Eleven-Tier third and fourth tiers.

But nowadays, even an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form like the Four-Armed Divine King, if not relying on a supreme weapon, Lin Yuan could suppress them casually.

Compared to the Space-Time Fifth Realm, the Space-Time Sixfold Realm was simply a crushing dominance.

If the combat power of an Eleven-Tier Perfection expert was ten, the combat power of a tenth-stage evil god in the Boundless Void was between fifteen and twenty.

Lin Yuan's combat power was around one hundred.

And using this as a standard, the combat power of a Twelfth Order Supreme Powerhouse was in the millions.

Although Lin Yuan was still far inferior to a Twelfth Order Supreme Powerhouse, he also surpassed normal Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms.

In the Two-Dimensional World, Lin Yuan relied on the environmental restrictions of the Two-Dimensional World to crush those Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms.

In reality, he took a shortcut.

But now.

Lin Yuan's true combat power had already completely surpassed Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms.

This complete transcendence referred to those legendary-level life forms purely relying on themselves.

Compared to the tenth-stage evil gods of the Boundless Void, the Main Universe's Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms had another huge advantage.

That was weapons.

The Four-Armed Divine King could merge into a supreme weapon, leading to a massive leap in combat power.

Other Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms also had hopes of obtaining a supreme weapon.

Most Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms in the Main Universe basically had the backing of Peak Groups or a certain Supreme Powerhouse.

To increase their certainty of breaking through to the Ultimate, Peak Groups or Supreme Powerhouses would bestow a supreme weapon, allowing this legendary-level life form to comprehend the power of the Twelfth Order in advance.

This supreme weapon was temporarily bestowed; if they successfully stepped into the Twelfth Order in the end, it would not be taken back, but if the breakthrough to the Ultimate failed, it would return to the possession of the group.

The reason why the Four-Armed Divine King had such a big reputation among the many Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms in the Main Universe was because the supreme weapon he held fit himself extremely well.

A supreme weapon that fit oneself could not only comprehend more Twelfth Order power, but also deeply tap into the might of this supreme weapon.

It was a pity.

The Four-Armed Divine King's supreme weapon, along with the departure of that 'white paper', had already been completely lost in the Two-Dimensional World, accompanied by the loss of fundamental mental will.

Causing the Four-Armed Divine King to fall at one stroke from the very top group among Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms.

Needless to say about the enhancement of supreme weapons to combat power.

Even if an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form obtained a supreme weapon that didn't suit them very well.

Under full activation, it could still erupt with a might of hundreds of units of combat power; this activation relied solely on one's own power, without any hidden methods left by Supreme Powerhouses in the supreme weapon.

Based on an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form's combat power of ten, erupting with a might of hundreds in combat power, this was the deterrent force of a supreme weapon.

Ten to hundreds? This definitely did not mean a dozen-fold increase; an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form holding a supreme weapon could completely sweep through a group of legendary-level life forms without supreme weapons.

Of course, an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form holding a supreme weapon could erupt with might far exceeding their own limits.

But similarly, the consumption of activating a supreme weapon was also terrifyingly huge. With the foundation of an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form, they simply couldn't activate a supreme weapon for many moves.

"Supreme weapons… I also have many."

With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, his Solar Nascent Soul entered the Profound Yellow Secret Realm.

In the Main Universe's starry sky, when it came to the number of supreme weapons, below the Twelfth Order, Lin Yuan called himself number one, and no one dared to call themselves number two.

On the trip to the Two-Dimensional World, the number of exotic objects harvested by Lin Yuan was close to a hundred.

Even though most of these hundred exotic objects were twelve-star rare Materials, the number of supreme weapons still exceeded thirty.

Thirty supreme weapons? Even if inferior to the treasury of Peak Groups, it was enough to make any Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form look up in awe.

In fact, they couldn't even manage to look up in awe.

Almost all Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms had their supreme weapons temporarily 'borrowed' from their groups.

Swish.

Lin Yuan's figure appeared in the deepest part of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm.

This was also the place where many exotic objects were stored.

"Supreme weapons…"

With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, thirty-two supreme weapons appeared before him.

Thirty-two supreme weapons were neatly arranged, including sabers and spears, cauldrons and pagodas, with a wide variety of types.

"Now I can indeed choose a few supreme weapons."

Lin Yuan touched his chin.

Previously, Lin Yuan didn't choose a supreme weapon because he wanted to refine a supreme weapon.

Even for preliminary refinement, it required the comprehension Realm of the Space-Time Fifth Realm.

Without reaching the Space-Time Fifth Realm, it was completely impossible to activate the vast space-time inside the supreme weapon, let alone refine it.

In other words, wanting to refine a supreme weapon started at the Eleven-Tier fifth tier. In fact, most owners of supreme weapons were Eleven-Tier sixth tier.

Which was Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms.

Before Lin Yuan carried out his tenth traversal, his comprehension of space-time was only at the Second Stage, so naturally, he had no thoughts of refining a Supreme Weapon.

But now? Lin Yuan's space-time comprehension had reached the Sixth Stage; not only could he refine a Supreme Weapon, but in terms of speed, he could definitely crush those Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms.

Furthermore, higher space-time comprehension was also immensely helpful in unlocking the power of Supreme Weapons.

A Supreme Weapon, in the hands of a Supreme Powerhouse, could unleash a might of millions of combat power.

Yet in the hands of an Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life form, it could merely unleash a few hundred combat power? An Eleven-Tier Perfection life form's excavation of a Supreme Weapon could not even be called negligible.

"Let me take a look."

Lin Yuan carefully selected; among the thirty-two Supreme Weapons, he needed to ponder with caution.

Although in Lin Yuan's mind, the most suitable Supreme Weapon was the Origin Bell, currently, the Origin Bell was still far from transforming into a Supreme Weapon.

Before that, Lin Yuan still didn't mind taking a few Supreme Weapons to tide himself over.

Even if these Supreme Weapons were not entirely suited for him, their inherent quality level was right there, which could still substantially boost his own combat power.

"This iron rod."

Lin Yuan looked toward a pitch-black iron rod.

This iron rod was the first offensive weapon Lin Yuan had obtained in the Two-Dimensional World.

Even while situated in the Two-Dimensional World and subjected to dimensional suppression, the aura displayed by the iron rod was extremely powerful, filled with a heavy sense of Mount Tai pressing down upon the summit.

After breaking free from the Two-Dimensional World and arriving in the Main Universe, the iron rod's own might began to recover partially. Picking up this iron rod, the force Lin Yuan expended would likely be able to lift tens of thousands of stars.

"Let's see if it feels smooth to use."

With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, he arrived high above the Profound Yellow Secret Realm.

In the Two-Dimensional World, Lin Yuan had used this pitch-black iron rod many times, but the pitch-black iron rod in the Two-Dimensional World and the current pitch-black iron rod were completely different weapons.

With the recovery of Twelfth Order-level power, just having the iron rod in Lin Yuan's hand gave off the posture of crushing rivers of stars.

Swish.

Holding the pitch-black iron rod, Lin Yuan casually waved it forward.

A terrifying pitch-black rod shadow forcefully tore apart the void of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, producing a black spatial crack hundreds of thousands of li long.

Before initially refining a Supreme Weapon, if one's comprehension of the Space-Time Fusion Rule was high enough, one could also unleash a trace of the Supreme Weapon's might in advance.

However, compared to after initial refinement, the might would be much lower, and the consumption would also be greater.

But for Lin Yuan, this naturally amounted to nothing; he did not urge this Supreme Weapon with full force, merely trying it out to see if it felt comfortable.

Swish.

One black spatial crack after another surfaced, and wherever these black spatial cracks touched, everything was annihilated.

In the distance.

The Six-Armed Figure looked on with considerable curiosity, not knowing what Lin Yuan intended to do.

As the spirit of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, the Six-Armed Figure vaguely sensed a hint of abnormality regarding Lin Yuan's descent this time, yet couldn't tell what was amiss.

Until—

Holding that pitch-black iron rod, Lin Yuan gently waved it, tearing out a black crack hundreds of thousands of li long.

This black crack left the Six-Armed Figure's heart trembling and dumbfounded.

Compared to the Main Universe, the space of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm was even more stable.

Wanting to tear space within the Profound Yellow Secret Realm required at least the strength of a Tier 9 Peak.

But even for a Tier 9 Peak, the number of spatial layers torn apart in an instant would at most be several hundred thousand layers.

Even those special Tier 9s of tens of millions of layers, the number of spatial layers torn apart under full force would not exceed this figure.

Tier 10 Experts and Eleven-Tier Experts were much the same; if they were in the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, the number of spatial layers torn apart in an instant would not exceed ten million spatial layers.

However, the spatial crack torn by the rod shadow Lin Yuan had just swung out was black.

Normal spatial cracks were mostly grayish-white; as for black cracks, that was a sign of being on the verge of tearing through all spatial layers.

In other words, if this strike from Lin Yuan were slightly more powerful, it would probably be able to punch through the Profound Yellow Secret Realm.

How could this not make the Six-Armed Figure's heart tremble? The Profound Yellow Secret Realm was created by Your Majesty Xuan Huang; even though its defense within the Secret Realm was inferior to the outside world, wanting to punch through the Secret Realm was no easy feat.

At least those Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms fell far short of being able to do so; even holding a Supreme Weapon, it would be very difficult to tear the spatial layers to this extent in an instant.

Yet Lin Yuan?

Watching Lin Yuan continually tear out black cracks hundreds of thousands and millions of li long, the Six-Armed Figure's heart trembled violently.

"Master… how can he wield a Supreme Weapon to such an extent?"

The Six-Armed Figure found it hard to believe. He could also see that Lin Yuan's ability to tear open one black spatial crack after another stemmed from the iron rod Supreme Weapon in his hand.

But urging a Supreme Weapon required sufficient space-time comprehension, especially since Lin Yuan had not yet refined those Supreme Weapons; even if he could urge them, the might he could unleash was extremely limited.

Yet Lin Yuan?

How on earth did he pull it off?

The Six-Armed Figure actually already had a guess in his heart, which was that Lin Yuan's comprehension of space-time was extremely high, perhaps reaching the Twelfth Order level? But this young master of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm was only at Tier 10!

High above the Profound Yellow Secret Realm.

Lin Yuan casually waved the pitch-black iron rod, feeling the might it unleashed.

"With my current strength, under full force, coupled with the initial refinement of this Supreme Weapon, I can completely create permanent spatial cracks within the Profound Yellow Secret Realm."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

The prerequisite for the appearance of permanent spatial cracks was tearing apart all spatial layers.

Currently holding the Supreme Weapon, even without initial refinement, Lin Yuan could unleash a might of thousands of combat power. The number of spatial layers in the Profound Yellow Secret Realm fell far short of the Main Universe, making it hopeful to be completely torn open.

Of course, Lin Yuan could only accomplish this feat within the Profound Yellow Secret Realm; if it were in the Main Universe, wanting to create permanent spatial cracks would require reaching a might of at least millions of combat power.

That was the threshold combat power of the Twelfth Order.

Only thus could one tear open all spatial layers of the Main Universe in a single stroke.

"This iron rod is still not suited for me."

After trying it out for a while, Lin Yuan gave up the idea of refining the iron rod.

The iron rod's might was indeed great, but it differed from Lin Yuan's combat style.

Moreover, in the Two-Dimensional World, Lin Yuan had used this Supreme Weapon several times in front of the ten thousand races experts.

Now if he chose to refine this pitch-black iron rod, as long as he used it in the outside world, he would definitely be quickly recognized by the Experts of the myriad races in the starry sky.

Leading to the conclusion—

Within the Two-Dimensional World, that Human Evolver named 'Blood Rain' was none other than Lin Yuan.

Supreme Weapons might not be entirely unique, but their numbers were so limited that the selection range for rod-shaped Supreme Weapons was very small.

Next.

Lin Yuan continued to try out the other thirty-one Supreme Weapons.

Ultimately, among offensive Supreme Weapons, he chose a silver-white battle saber.

This silver-white battle saber contained the complete Dao of Space—it was the Dao of Space, not mere Space Rules. With a single slash, its sharpness reached the absolute extreme.

As for defense, in terms of physical defense, Lin Yuan chose a golden armor, which belonged to the boutique class of physical defense weapons among the thirty-two Supreme Weapons.

As for Soul defense, Lin Yuan's selection range was very small, because among the thirty-two Supreme Weapons, there was only one Supreme Weapon dedicated to Soul defense.

It was a bead presenting a deep cyan color.

Three Supreme Weapons: one for offense, two for defense.

This was armed to the teeth. For other Eleven-Tier Perfection legendary-level life forms, it was exceptionally difficult just to obtain a single Supreme Weapon bestowed by their Peak group, yet Lin Yuan equipped three all at once.

"What a pity. With my space-time comprehension, even though I can quickly refine Supreme Weapons, the energy required to urge them dictates that I can hold at most three."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

If possible, he naturally would have wanted to refine all the Supreme Weapons.

But that was unrealistic. Not being a Supreme Powerhouse, the burden of urging a Supreme Weapon was immense. Even if Lin Yuan stepped into the Eleven-Tier, it would be impossible for him to urge too many Supreme Weapons simultaneously.

"These three it is."

"Begin refining now."

Lin Yuan reappeared in the deepest depths of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, picked up the silver-white battle saber, and began to permeate it with his mental will, rapidly refining it.

Refining a Supreme Weapon was no simple matter; normally, an Eleven-Tier Perfection wishing to initially refine a Supreme Weapon would take at least several thousand to tens of thousands of years.

As for Lin Yuan, he was much faster; at most, he could refine one in just a few years.
