Chapter 483: Thousands of Years

"Is the Immortal Realm Consciousness enraged?"

The tremor in the Source Land was perceived by the Immortal Path Ancestor in an instant.

"Is the Martial Dao Ancestor approaching the Immortal Realm Consciousness?"

The Immortal Path Ancestor looked towards the centermost position of the Source Land, feeling no sense of surprise at all.

Although he had long reminded Lin Yuan that the Immortal Realm Consciousness was terrifying and could easily mobilize the power of the entire Immortal Realm,

the place where the Immortal Realm Consciousness resided contained all the rules of the Immortal Realm, and such a temptation was simply too great. Back then, he had also approached the Immortal Realm Consciousness because of this.

In the end, he suffered a considerable loss.

Now that Lin Yuan was approaching the Immortal Realm Consciousness, he presumably must have made the same discovery.

"Let's see how long the Martial Dao Ancestor can hold out against the Immortal Realm Consciousness?" The Immortal Path Ancestor was slightly curious.

Even an Ancestral Immortal could not directly contend against the entire Immortal Realm; it was merely a matter of how long one could resist.

The Immortal Path Ancestor had already prepared himself. Once Lin Yuan showed signs of failing to withstand it, he would step in to help.

The Immortal Path Ancestor had experience fighting the Immortal Realm Consciousness and was confident he could bring Lin Yuan out unscathed. That way, he would earn a favor from the Martial Dao Ancestor.

"Right now, it is still normal for the Immortal Realm Consciousness to merely mobilize the power of the Source Land. Once it mobilizes the power of the entire Immortal Realm, that will truly be terrifying."

The Immortal Path Ancestor felt carefully, thinking rapidly in his heart.

Whoosh.

A terrifying power swept over, enveloping Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan did not put up the slightest resistance. In terms of power level, he was inferior even to the Immortal Path Ancestor, let alone the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

Lin Yuan's greatest reliance in daring to approach was still his comprehension of rules, or more accurately, his comprehension of space-time.

The Space-Time Sevenfold Realm comprehension allowed Lin Yuan to surpass the Immortal Realm at the space-time level. This was also why the Demon Abyss Ancestor had punched through all space-time in a certain region without being able to affect Lin Yuan.

Rumble.

The violent power originating from the Origin swept past Lin Yuan in an instant, and then blasted toward the distance.

"It didn't touch me?"

Lin Yuan's heart settled.

As long as the Immortal Realm Consciousness had no way to touch him either, everything would be easy to handle.

If the Immortal Realm Consciousness could lock onto the position of Lin Yuan's true Physical Body, then Lin Yuan would definitely not continue to approach.

Rumble.

Having failed to touch Lin Yuan, the Immortal Realm Consciousness did not stop. Instead, it continued to gather the power of the entire Source Land to suppress him.

Lin Yuan did not try to stop it either, simply continuing to slowly approach the location of the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

Several days passed quickly.

Perhaps realizing that it could not touch Lin Yuan, after a brief pause, a wave of consciousness emanated over. This was the Immortal Realm Consciousness wanting to communicate with Lin Yuan.

Since the Immortal Realm Consciousness was consciousness, it could certainly communicate. It was just that previously, facing the Immortal Path Ancestor, there had been no need for communication at all.

But at this moment, Lin Yuan's existence made the Immortal Realm Consciousness feel 'tricky'; at least it could do nothing to him, which was why it took the initiative to communicate.

"Let me in to experience the rules themselves." Lin Yuan also transmitted his purpose.

"Impossible." The Immortal Realm Consciousness was quite enraged and directly refused.

The location where it resided was the core of the Source Land, which was also the source where the Immortal Realm Consciousness was born.

It was not only the source of the myriad rules of the Immortal Realm, but also the source of its own Immortal Realm Consciousness.

If Lin Yuan entered, what he could do was not just comprehend the rules themselves, but he could even directly attack the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

Outside the core, the Immortal Realm Consciousness could easily mobilize the power of the entire Immortal Realm to reach everywhere, but inside the core, the power of the Immortal Realm could not penetrate.

Even the power of the Origin could not affect it. Within the core, the Immortal Realm Consciousness was like a tiger without teeth.

"I guarantee I won't make a move against you." Lin Yuan said immediately.

He had once replaced the World Consciousness of the Azure Sky World and knew what this kind of World Consciousness feared the most, so he made the guarantee in time.

It was just that the Immortal Realm Consciousness did not respond to him, and even the boiling Source Land quickly quieted down.

"Not communicating with me anymore?" Lin Yuan thought for a moment, and continued to approach the core where the Immortal Realm Consciousness resided.

Soon.

Lin Yuan stopped.

"A space-time barrier?"

Lin Yuan looked at the distorted space-time before him.

Even with the Space-Time Sevenfold Realm comprehension, he could not advance any further at this moment.

"It seems this is your reliance?" Lin Yuan had a clear idea in his mind.

Wanting to enter the core where the Immortal Realm Consciousness resided required not only facing the frantic counterattacks of the Immortal Realm Consciousness, but also crossing the space-time barrier right before him.

"Divine Ability: Tear of the Heavens."

Lin Yuan raised his right hand, an invisible power gathering, and gently tore towards the space-time barrier in front of him.

This Divine Ability was a Physical Body Divine Ability that Lin Yuan had awakened during this time-travel, a pure, or rather, extreme offensive Divine Ability.

Rip.

With Lin Yuan's tear, the space-time barrier in front of him slightly began to ripple, but recovered in the blink of an eye.

"It's useful?" Lin Yuan did not continue to attack.

A moment later.

Two more figures appeared not far away.

They were precisely Lin Yuan's Taiyin Primordial Spirit and Solar Nascent Soul.

The might of the Tear of the Heavens Divine Ability depended on the user's all-around foundation.

The Incarnation condensed by Lin Yuan, although possessing a very high degree of combat power, was obviously far inferior to the two Primordial Spirits.

Of course, there was still a large gap between the two Primordial Spirits and the true Physical Body.

The "Tear of the Heavens" Divine Ability displayed by the Incarnation could only stir up a few ripples on the space-time barrier.

But the two Primordial Spirits—

Rip.

The two Primordial Spirits extended their right hands and gently tore towards the distant space-time barrier.

In a split second, the space-time barrier began to vibrate slightly, quickly recovering once more.

"If you still don't let me in, I will bring the Immortal Path Ancestor in." Lin Yuan took the initiative to communicate with the Immortal Realm Consciousness. "With the offensive capability of the Immortal Path Ancestor, even if he can't break open the space-time barrier in a short time, as time goes on—one hundred million years, one billion years, ten billion years—can you still block him?"

In fact, the methods of the Immortal Path Ancestor couldn't reach the space-time barrier at all; before getting close, he would be suppressed by the mighty World Power mobilized by the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

But if Lin Yuan lent a helping hand, the situation would be different.

Lin Yuan's Space-Time Sevenfold Realm comprehension made it impossible even for the Immortal Realm Consciousness to lock onto his specific location coordinates.

If Lin Yuan were truly willing to bring the Immortal Path Ancestor over, what he just said might really come true.

Of course, Lin Yuan was just threatening; in reality, he couldn't wait for a billion or ten billion years either.

But the Immortal Realm Consciousness didn't know that.

"By then, I cannot guarantee that I won't make a move against you." Lin Yuan continued.

The Immortal Realm Consciousness still had no reaction.

"In that case, I'll go bring the Immortal Path Ancestor over right now, and by the way, I'll also pick up the Demon Abyss Ancestor." One of Lin Yuan's Incarnations silently dissipated.

Right at this moment.

The originally dormant Immortal Realm Consciousness began to fluctuate again, transmitting a message to Lin Yuan.

The general meaning was—

How could Lin Yuan guarantee that after entering the core, he wouldn't make a move against the Immortal Realm Consciousness?

"You do not have the qualifications to negotiate with me." Lin Yuan shook his head. "Either agree and let me enter now, or ten billion years later, the Immortal Path Ancestor and I will slaughter our way in."

After saying that, Lin Yuan quietly waited for the reply from the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

After a long time.

The Ultimate Immortal Realm Consciousness transmitted a message once more.

It agreed to Lin Yuan's request.

A time span of one billion or ten billion years was incomparably long to Lin Yuan.

But to the Immortal Realm Consciousness, it was about the same as tomorrow or the day after.

Therefore, the problem facing the Immortal Realm Consciousness right now was very simple.

Whether to let Lin Yuan in today,

or be slaughtered into by Lin Yuan tomorrow or the day after.

The Ultimate outcomes of the two were completely different.

"That's more like it." Lin Yuan smiled slightly.

The two Primordial Spirits vanished, leaving only a single Incarnation standing there.

The space-time barrier in the distance began to distort, forming a temporary passage leading to the core.

The next moment.

Lin Yuan stepped across into it.

"Hmm?"

The Immortal Path Ancestor widened his eyes.

Ever since he sensed the tremor of the Source Land beginning, the Immortal Path Ancestor had been watching the contest between Lin Yuan and the Immortal Realm Consciousness through certain means.

Lin Yuan's space-time attainments brought him incomparably close to the core, and in the end he was blocked outside the space-time barrier—this the Immortal Path Ancestor had also witnessed with his own eyes.

Afterwards, Lin Yuan's two Primordial Spirits appeared and unleashed a strike of Tear of the Heavens, which the Immortal Path Ancestor was also aware of.

Although the Immortal Path Ancestor did not know the exact content of Lin Yuan's communication with the Immortal Realm Consciousness, the fact that the Immortal Realm Consciousness ultimately took the initiative to open up a passage and let Lin Yuan enter fell extremely clearly into the eyes of the Immortal Path Ancestor.

"The Martial Dao Ancestor has gone in?"

The Immortal Path Ancestor was slightly dazed. For countless hundreds of millions of years, he had also yearned immensely to enter the core where the Immortal Realm Consciousness resided, but it was only a yearning, unless he could once again achieve a massive qualitative leap in strength.

Otherwise, he simply wasn't a match for the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

But Lin Yuan?

Having only arrived at the Source Land for slightly over two hundred years, he had entered the core that the Immortal Path Ancestor yearned for yet could not obtain?

The core of the Source Land.

Lin Yuan appeared here.

All around was pitch black, with countless points of light drifting slowly.

Lin Yuan swept his gaze across them, shockingly discovering that these points of light corresponded to certain rules themselves.

Within the pitch-black space, countless points of light drifted. The small points of light were only the size of a fist, while the large points of light were as vast as stars.

"Too wonderful."

Lin Yuan observed the points of light one by one. Even the smallest point of light contained countless pieces of information; this was a certain rule itself. Even though Lin Yuan had already thoroughly comprehended this rule, viewing it again still benefited him immensely.

"When the Immortal Realm enters its final stage, these points of light in the core will collapse one by one, and the corresponding outside world will see the collapse of the Dao."

"The rules contained in all the points of light, after collapsing, vaguely fuse together, awaiting rebirth after a long destruction?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself. The very first moment he entered the core, he fell into an Epiphany state here, and every single instant, rules were comprehended and thoroughly understood.

"Hmm?"

"That is the true body of the Immortal Realm Consciousness?"

Lin Yuan glanced with his remaining mental energy, discovering a ball of light floating in the distance.

This ball of light was completely different from the other points of light around it; it was precisely the Immortal Realm Consciousness.

At this moment, this ball of light was watching Lin Yuan with incomparable vigilance.

Lin Yuan naturally knew of the Immortal Realm Consciousness's worries. Right now, he couldn't be bothered to comfort the Immortal Realm Consciousness, completely immersing all his mind and spirit into comprehending the boundless points of light all around.

Time flowed by.

Unconsciously, a thousand years had passed.
