Chapter 485: Shattered

Compared to a millennium ago,

at this moment, the "egg" nurtured and formed by the myriad rules within the Internal World had completely materialized, and even Lin Yuan could sense the vast fluctuations within the "egg".

"What is being nurtured inside here should be the Chaos Rules."

Lin Yuan gazed at the towering giant "egg", thinking to himself.

To some extent, this "egg" was the Dao fruit he had condensed after comprehending for a millennium—or to be precise, comprehending numerous rules up to this day.

The complete materialization of the towering giant "egg" meant that Lin Yuan was infinitely close to comprehending the Chaos Rules.

At least for Lin Yuan, the Chaos Rules were no longer illusory; they were solid and real, just like the "egg" in his Internal World.

"The Chaos Rules…" Lin Yuan sighed inwardly.

No wonder comprehending the Chaos Rules at the Eleven-Tier was a legend among legends; even to existences of the caliber of Your Majesty Xuan Huang and Moyu Tower Master, they had only ever heard of it and had never actually witnessed it in the Chaos Void.

Because comprehending the Chaos Rules as an Eleven-Tier life was simply too difficult.

Lin Yuan possessed Heaven-Defying Comprehension and the Gate of Myriad Realms, allowing him to shuttle down to the heavens and myriad Realms, utilizing the differences between different dimensions and the opportunities of various worlds to finally reach where he was today.

What about other Eleven-Tier beings?

If they wanted to comprehend the Chaos Rules, how many detours would they have to take and how many resources would they waste?

"Perhaps if a Chaos Realm expert personally demonstrated the complete Chaos Rules right in front of someone, it would be of some help in comprehending the Chaos Rules." Lin Yuan thought silently to himself.

Twelfth Order Chaos Realm Experts had basically all comprehended the Chaos Rules and could completely manifest the Chaos Rules they had comprehended.

But being able to manifest them and allowing an Eleven-Tier life to comprehend them were completely different matters.

The Universe and the Chaos Void were inherently filled with endless mysteries, yet how many lives could ultimately reach the end?

"Martial Path Eleventh Level"

Bits and pieces regarding the Eleventh Level flashed through the mind of Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan had begun attempting to pioneer the Martial Path Eleventh Level back when he was in Tier 10, and after stepping into the Eleven-Tier, he officially perfected it.

However, it was only in the past few decades, aided by the myriad rules themselves at the core of the Source Land of the Immortal Realm, that Lin Yuan finally completely perfected the Martial Path Eleventh Level.

The Martial Path Eleventh Level was the final Realm of the Ultimate transition, belonging to the summarization and sublimation of the previous ten Realms.

The Martial Path Eleventh Level pioneered by Lin Yuan was based on the Space-Time Fusion Rule, specifically establishing 33,333 space-time models ranging from the First Realm to the Space-Time Fifth Realm.

Rule models were how the Evolutionary Grand Scholars of Human Civilization explained the rules of heaven and earth through easily understandable model formats.

Just like various physics and mathematical formulas—those formulas did not exist inherently; they were summarized by great scientists through continuous calculations.

Rule models were the same.

They were all painstakingly summarized by the Evolutionary Grand Scholars of Human Civilization from the most fundamental rules of the Universe.

The basic space rule model, core space rule model, and Time Rule model that Lin Yuan initially comprehended were just like this.

However, the Evolutionary Grand Scholars of Human Civilization were limited in their height, at most summarizing a few thousand models of the Time Rule.

Moreover, even if all these thousands of Time Rule models were fully comprehended, there was still quite a distance from thoroughly understanding the Time Rule.

The upper limit of the rule models pioneered and mastered by Human Civilization was just the Time Rule models.

As for further Space-Time Rule models?

They simply could not be materialized.

This was not because the Evolutionary Grand Scholars of Human Civilization were hoarding their knowledge, but because their height limited them.

Lin Yuan was different; under his Heaven-Defying Comprehension, his perception of rules soon surpassed the sum of all Evolutionary Grand Scholars of Human Civilization.

Furthermore, this trip to the Immortal Realm and his core comprehension in the Source Land allowed the understanding of rules by Lin Yuan to reach an unprecedented height.

Utilizing his comprehension of millions of Pillar-level fusion rules outside the Space-Time Sevenfold Realm, he finally pioneered the rule models for the Space-Time Fusion Rule, encompassing the First Realm to the Fifth Realm.

You must know that pioneering the corresponding rule models and thoroughly understanding the corresponding rules were completely different concepts.

There were some Eleven-Tier Perfection Evolvers in Human Civilization whose space-time comprehension had reached the Fifth Realm, yet not a single one could pioneer even a First Realm Space-Time Fusion Rule model.

The Nine Supreme Experts were the same; their comprehension of the Space-Time Fusion Rule had reached the Sixth Realm, but wanting to pioneer a space-time comprehension model applicable to all Evolvers was still as difficult as ascending to heaven.

In addition to the Space-Time Fusion Rule models, Lin Yuan also added models of some other rules within the Martial Path Eleventh Level.

These rule models were some special rules that Lin Yuan perfected and pioneered during his leisure time.

"The 33,333 Space-Time Fusion Rule models will make the comprehension of space-time by future martial path Evolvers a bit easier."

Lin Yuan thought silently to himself.

These thirty-odd thousand Space-Time Fusion Rule models could also be used on Evolvers of other evolutionary pathways, but the effect would still be best for martial path Evolvers.

Of course, even with clear rule models to comprehend, wanting to comprehend all Space-Time Rule models was still no easy task.

[Name: Gao Wuyou (Lin Yuan)]

[Identity: Master of the Gate of Myriad Realms]

[Bound Talent: Heaven-Defying Comprehension]

[Divine Ability: Rebirth from a Drop of Blood]

[Divine Ability: Mountain Moving]

[Divine Ability: Reinforcement]

[Divine Ability: Elemental Body]

[Divine Ability: World]

[Divine Ability: Tear of the Heavens]

[Current Status: Consciousness Descent]

[Remaining Residency Time: Ninety-Eight Years]

Lin Yuan glanced at the illusory text at the bottom of his vision.

"There are still ninety-eight years of residency time remaining."

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, and his figure disappeared on the spot.

Kaiyuan Martial City.

This was the first Martial City in the Immortal Realm, corresponding to the various immortal cities of the immortal Dao cultivation system.

Over the past thousand-plus years, the number of martial practitioners across the Thirty-Three Immortal Realms of the Immortal Realm had become countless, and Kaiyuan Martial City was all the more the Holy Land in the hearts of all martial practitioners.

Because the pioneering of this Martial City had the authorization of the Martial Dao Ancestor, and the first City Lord of Kaiyuan Martial City was even the Personal Disciple of the Martial Dao Ancestor.

Center of the Martial City.

Magnificent Martial Hall.

On the highest throne, a figure silently appeared and slowly sat down.

"Teacher."

Li Qing below seemed to have sensed something and immediately bowed excitedly toward the figure on the throne.

Over the past thousand-plus years, the number of times Li Qing had seen Lin Yuan could be counted on one hand.

"Martial Ancestor!"

Dan Yang, Nie Yun, and other Tier 9 martial practitioners were equally thrilled.

They had all come up from the Spirit Realm and had accompanied Lin Yuan through shuttles more than once.

"Rise, all of you."

Lin Yuan waved his hand and said casually.

Currently, the strongest martial practitioners were Li Qing and the others, who were Tier 9 martial practitioners.

"This is the Martial Path Eleventh Level."

Lin Yuan raised his right hand, and the bits and pieces of the Martial Path Eleventh Level poured into the minds of Li Qing and the others.

The Martial Path Eleventh Level, rather than being pioneered by Lin Yuan, was more like being replicated based on his own comprehension; in this aspect, it was quite similar to the ancient gods of the Main Universe.

The "Ancient God" evolutionary pathway propagated by the ancient gods was replicated based on the ancient gods themselves.

Passing down the Martial Path Eleventh Level did not cause any worry to Lin Yuan.

For instance, would future martial practitioners rapidly use the Martial Path Eleventh Level to Cultivate to Eleven-Tier Perfection and then impact the Ultimate Realm a step ahead of Lin Yuan?

Leaving aside whether such a thing could happen given the cultivation speed of Lin Yuan,

even if it really did happen, as long as Lin Yuan, the founder of the martial path, did not die, future martial practitioners would never be able to surpass him.

This was also a realization gained by Lin Yuan shortly before as the number of martial practitioners rapidly increased.

For any evolutionary pathway or cultivation system, if the founder died, naturally all things competed freely under the autumn frost.

Any practitioner of that evolutionary pathway or cultivation system had the possibility of impacting the Ultimate Realm.

But as long as the founder was still alive, the fundamental imprint of the evolutionary pathway resided on the founder, suppressing all practitioners of the same evolutionary pathway in the contemporary world.

"The Martial Path Eleventh Level?"

Li Qing and the others felt their minds turning to mush, and it took them a lot of time to barely digest the Martial Path Eleventh Level.

After all, involving over thirty thousand Space-Time Fusion Rule models, as well as numerous other rule models, was still too strenuous for Tier 9 martial practitioners.

Had Lin Yuan not actively sealed most of the content and waited until Li Qing and the others reached a certain Realm before unlocking the Seals, the mental wills of Li Qing and the others would probably have exploded long ago.

"Teacher, this…"

After barely recovering, a faint sense of unease welled up in the heart of Li Qing.

With her level, logically speaking, she was far from reaching the point where she could touch the Eleventh Level; why did Lin Yuan pass such a precious subsequent cultivation path to her?

"Next, I will enter seclusion."

"I estimate that for a very long time, I will not intervene in the affairs of the Immortal Realm."

Lin Yuan said.

This was also the truth; there were still ninety-eight years remaining until the end of the shuttle.

During these ninety-eight years, Lin Yuan prepared to gather all his focus and put all his energy into comprehending rules.

Striving to comprehend the Chaos Rules before the residency limit arrived.

"Yes."

Li Qing and the other martial practitioners immediately bowed and replied.

After continuing to instruct them for a few words,

this Incarnation of Lin Yuan disappeared from the Martial Hall.

The next moment,

Lin Yuan appeared in the boundless void.

This no longer belonged within the Immortal Realm, but rather the boundless void outside the world.

In this void, the Immortal Realm belonged to the undisputed highest world; beneath the Immortal Realm, countless subordinate worlds floated and sank.

"The Immortal Realm?"

Lin Yuan constantly elevated himself, gazing down at the Immortal Realm from an overlooking posture.

In the view of Lin Yuan, the Immortal Realm was vast beyond compare, being a stable "product" ultimately formed by the continuous intertwining and influence of myriad rules.

At the same time, another Primordial Spirit of Lin Yuan was at the core of the Source Land of the Immortal Realm, observing the numerous rules of the Immortal Realm themselves from the most minute details.

The two combined,

resembling heaven and earth colliding, all things began to perish and be reborn.

Over the past thousand-plus years, the millions of rules comprehended by Lin Yuan seemed to undergo some kind of qualitative change, actually beginning to slowly collapse and fuse together.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

A slight shattering sound echoed on the level of the mind of Lin Yuan.

The consciousness of Lin Yuan descended to the Internal World.

The towering giant "egg" formed by the intertwining of countless rules that had always spanned across the firmament,

at some unknown time, on its surface,

a crack appeared.
