Chapter 598: Profound Yellow Universe

In the Barren Void between the Yi Yun Void Domain and the Anbo Void Domain.

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint rarely stopped fighting and carefully observed the aura of the Universe that revealed a corner of itself.

The hatred between her and the Shadow Demon Great Saint was indeed irreconcilable.

However, this corner of the Universe discovered at present involved a certain Peerless Great Saint.

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint could not afford to take it lightly.

Although a Peerless Great Saint was also at Chaos Realm Perfection, sharing the same Realm as a Chaotic Great Saint, their combat power was vastly superior to the latter.

In addition, every Peerless Great Saint had many explorations and understandings regarding breaking through to the Thirteenth Order.

The Peerless Great Saints searched the Chaos Void, pursuing the traces of the Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform, and more or less gained something.

These gains were undoubtedly crucial to the Chaotic Great Saints and could even increase the possibility of breaking through to the Thirteenth Order.

Both Chaotic Great Saints and Peerless Great Saints could attempt to break through to the Thirteenth Order, but the latter certainly made far more preparations than the former, and their hope of ultimate success would definitely be higher.

"Unexpectedly, shortly after being promoted to Great Saint, I discovered a Universe created by a Peerless Great Saint. An Opportunity, a great Opportunity!"

The Shadow Demon Great Saint's heart surged with emotion; having reached the Chaos Realm Perfection level, there were already very few things that could attract him.

Resources? The Chaotic Great Saints did not lack resources; all aspects of them had already reached the extreme, and having more resources could not improve them by much.

The reason why a Peerless Great Saint's combat power was stronger than a Chaotic Great Saint's did not rely on resources, but on the Chaos path they evolved themselves.

Weapons and armaments? Actually, the Chaotic Great Saints did not lack them either. Unless they were weapons and armaments of the Thirteenth Order level, the Chaotic Great Saints generally had little interest.

For any Chaotic Great Saint, there was only one thing that attracted them the most.

That was the Thirteenth Order.

Breaking through to the Thirteenth Order was the goal of every Chaotic Great Saint.

Many Chaotic Great Saints had lived through long cosmic eras, and their relatives and friends had basically all died, leaving behind only the obsession to break through to the Thirteenth Order.

"The interior of this Universe has already shown a trend of dilapidation; otherwise, it would be impossible to have a corner blasted out. Even without my strike, this corner would still be exposed after a hundred or a thousand cosmic eras."

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint was also continuously observing.

She could clearly perceive that this Acquired Universe was incomparably ancient in its existence, originating from tens of millions of cosmic eras ago.

"With so many cosmic eras passing, many spaces and times inside this Universe are close to collapsing and still have not been repaired. Its creator probably never returned."

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint drew many conclusions.

Not returning to the Universe they created for such a long time? Letting its internal space and time collapse, there were only a few possibilities.

First, this Peerless Great Saint had died.

Second, this Peerless Great Saint attempted to break through to the Thirteenth Order, but had not succeeded yet, falling into a time loop.

Third, this Peerless Great Saint had undergone Reincarnation.

Among the three possibilities, the Nine Phoenix Great Saint believed the second one was closest to the truth.

But regardless of which one it was, it meant that it would be very difficult for this Peerless Great Saint to reappear in the world.

Even if it was the third possibility of Reincarnation, after such a long time without recovering all memories to return to the Peak and come back to this Universe, there was probably not much hope.

For the Reincarnation methods of Chaos Realm Experts, the hope of recovery was greatest in the first life. If it could not be recovered in the first life, the memories awakened in the second life would be vastly reduced, and even more so in the third and fourth lives.

Even for a Peerless Great Saint, if they did not return to the Peak in the third life, they basically could not come back, and their memories would be constantly worn away in each Reincarnation.

"Nine Phoenix, you should also know the importance of this Universe. The grievances between us can be put aside temporarily, and we can jointly explore this Universe."

The Shadow Demon Great Saint looked at the Nine Phoenix Great Saint and said.

Normally speaking, before attempting to break through to the Thirteenth Order, a Peerless Great Saint would leave behind everything of theirs—weapons, treasures, insights, explorations of the Thirteenth Order, and so on.

After all, breaking through to the Thirteenth Order basically had only two possibilities.

Success or being trapped in a time loop.

If successful, becoming a Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform, the weapons, treasures, insights, and explorations left behind by oneself would be insignificant, and others knowing about them would not matter.

If it failed and was eternally trapped within the time loop, the weapons, treasures, insights, and explorations left behind would have even less impact. Furthermore, if this created a Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform, it could even rescue oneself from the time loop.

Correct.

Thirteenth Order lifeforms can interfere with the time loops that Twelfth Order Perfection falls into.

Of course, even for a Thirteen Step Time Life, forcibly breaking a certain time loop required paying a huge price, but it was always a glimmer of hope.

And this Twelfth Order Perfection rescued by external interference was equivalent to losing the Opportunity to break through to the Thirteenth Order.

"Joint exploration?"

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint looked at the Shadow Demon Great Saint.

"That's right. Even if you killed me, your close relatives and clansmen cannot be resurrected. But as long as you step into the Thirteenth Order, you can go against the timeline and resurrect your dead close relatives and clansmen."

The Shadow Demon Great Saint said.

When Twelfth Order resurrected creatures that died in the past, it used the River of Time as the Foundation and the life imprint as the anchor point to resurrect them.

Therefore, after a life stepped into the Twelfth Order, it freed itself from being a Time Lifeform, and its life imprint even leaped out of the River of Time, thus losing the ability to be resurrected.

However, what about a Thirteen Step Time Life?

A Thirteen Step Time Life could see many future timelines and past timelines. The resurrection means they could achieve was to resurrect by going against the timeline.

This kind of resurrection ability did not need to rely on any sustenance; as long as they once existed, they could be resurrected.

"Stepping into the Thirteenth Order?"

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint fell into silence. The reason why she stopped fighting with the Shadow Demon Great Saint was precisely out of this consideration.

The Acquired Universe created by that Peerless Great Saint before her eyes most likely stored that Peerless Great Saint's exploration and cognition regarding breaking through to the Thirteenth Order.

As long as she could obtain it, the hope of breaking through to the Thirteenth Order in the future might become a bit greater.

As for why this Peerless Great Saint had not returned yet? Basically lost the possibility of stepping into the Thirteenth Order? How confident were every Chaos Realm Perfection Great Saint? The paths they walked were also different.

This Peerless Great Saint failed to break through to the Thirteenth Order, which did not mean she would also fail.

"Alright."

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint weighed the pros and cons, and finally made a decision in her heart.

Any grievances appeared insignificant in front of breaking through to the Thirteenth Order.

Hearing this, the Shadow Demon Great Saint breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He was just worried that the Nine Phoenix Great Saint would continue acting crazy and ignore this Acquired Universe.

"Then now let's join forces, blast this corner of the Universe to pieces, and then go in."

The Shadow Demon Great Saint said. The corner of space and time they saw now was only a part of this Acquired Universe, and the entire Acquired Universe still maintained its integrity.

To enter, one must either master the method of entry or forcibly blast their way in.

"Mm."

The Nine Phoenix Great Saint nodded.

Rumble.

The full-force joint strike of the two Chaotic Great Saints was much more powerful than the Nine Phoenix Great Saint's strike just now.

The terrifying Chaos evolutionary power tore apart space and time, blasting toward that exposed corner of the Universe.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

In an instant.

This Universe suddenly radiated boundless Xuanhuang Qi, and the joint strike of the Nine Phoenix Great Saint and the Shadow Demon Great Saint was rapidly diluted under the protection of the Xuanhuang Qi.

At the same time.

A heavy spatial-temporal fluctuation spread in all directions. The strike of the two Great Saints was like hitting an ancient bell, and the terrifying sound wave spread toward the surrounding endless space and time.

"Not good."

The expressions of the Shadow Demon Great Saint and the Nine Phoenix Great Saint changed drastically.

Let alone shattering this corner of the Universe, their joint strike failed to even shake it.

An Acquired Universe left behind tens of millions of cosmic eras ago had such a terrifying Foundation that even when its internal space and time were close to collapse, it easily blocked the strike of the two Great Saints.

Just what kind of strength did the Peerless Great Saint who created this Acquired Universe back then possess?

However, the Shadow Demon Great Saint and the Nine Phoenix Great Saint no longer had time to think about this in detail. The consequence of their joint strike hitting that corner of the Universe was stirring up terrifying ripples of spatial-temporal fluctuations.

These ripples of spatial-temporal fluctuations transmitted toward one Void Domain around them after another.

"What is going on?"

"This kind of spatial-temporal fluctuation?"

Inside each Void Domain, the Chaotic Venerables vaguely perceived it and looked toward the source of the spatial-temporal fluctuations.

"This fluctuation aura? Is it the fluctuation aura of a Universe? An Acquired Universe? An Acquired Universe created by a Peerless Great Saint?"

"An Acquired Universe created by a Peerless Great Saint must contain many treasures, rare items, and weapons left behind by this Peerless Great Saint, and even insights into breaking through to the Thirteenth Order."

"A great Opportunity, this is a great Opportunity."

The eyes of the Chaotic Venerables were burning with passion. Breaking through to the Thirteenth Order was not only the goal of the Chaotic Great Saints, but even venerables who had just entered the Chaos Realm had this kind of yearning.

And all of these could be found within the Acquired Universe created by the Peerless Great Saint.

Even if they could not obtain the insights into breaking through to the Thirteenth Order, the treasures, rare items, and weapons left behind by a Peerless Great Saint were enough for the Chaos Venerables to benefit endlessly.

"Let's go."

"Let's head over right now."

Immediately, some Chaos Venerables could not hold back and headed toward the source of the spatial-temporal fluctuations.

Indeed, this spatial-temporal fluctuation originating from the Acquired Universe also contained Saint-Grade power fluctuations.

In other words, beside that Acquired Universe, there should still be Chaotic Great Saints.

But so what?

Under normal circumstances, a Chaos Venerable would not be willing to offend a Great Saint.

But in front of an irresistible Opportunity, what were Chaotic Great Saints?

"An Acquired Universe created by a Peerless Great Saint—"

The heavy spatial-temporal fluctuations continued to spread, likewise alarming some Chaotic Great Saints.

In the Chaos Void, every Void Domain would have a few Chaos Venerables. As for Chaotic Great Saints? Dozens or even hundreds of Void Domains might not necessarily have one.

"Are those the auras of Shadow Demon and Nine Phoenix? Those two guys are quite lucky; stumbling around blindly, they actually discovered an undiscovered Acquired Universe?"

A Chaotic Great Saint's gaze was profound, and he immediately deduced the cause and effect of the matter.

The grievances between the Nine Phoenix Great Saint and the Shadow Demon Great Saint were no secret at the Chaotic Great Saint level.

The other Great Saints were just watching the fight between the two Great Saints as a spectacle; as long as it didn't affect or spread to them, they couldn't be bothered to stop it.

Gu Ming Chaos Continent, Star Tear Fragment World.

Lin Yuan's expression was solemn as he looked at the animal skin floating and drifting proactively in front of him.

This piece of animal skin was obtained by Lin Yuan from the golden box engraved with the mark of the Xuanhuang Lineage.

According to the description of the Six-Armed Figure, the spirit of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, that golden box had very likely passed through the hands of Your Majesty Xuan Huang.

The treasure existing inside was a supreme treasure of the Xuanhuang Lineage.

"Is it a map?"

Lin Yuan discovered that the root cause of the animal skin's mutation was the map on its surface.

"Has the location marked on the map manifested?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself. The map on the animal skin was a Mausoleum. According to the explanation of the spirit of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm, this Mausoleum was the Mausoleum of Your Majesty Xuan Huang.

However, the map only encompassed the area within the palace chambers. As for the exact coordinates and location of this Mausoleum, Lin Yuan did not know.

Only when this Mausoleum manifested, revealing its aura to echo with this map, would it become known.

Originally, Lin Yuan no longer held any hope for this map. After all, who knew when the Mausoleum of Your Majesty Xuan Huang would manifest?

There had been no movement for tens of millions of cosmic eras, and it was estimated that it would be the same after another tens of millions of cosmic eras.

But now?

The mutation of the map on the animal skin allowed Lin Yuan to deduce that the Mausoleum of Your Majesty Xuan Huang had probably truly manifested.

"Specific spatial-temporal coordinates."

Lin Yuan separated a wisp of his mind, probing into the map on the animal skin, vaguely resonating with the Mausoleum echoed by the map.

"Is it over there?"

Lin Yuan looked far away in one direction and frowned, "It's too far."

Even if it was just a rough resonance, Lin Yuan could perceive just how far away this Mausoleum was from his current position.

Even with Lin Yuan's current spatial-temporal insights, traveling with all his might and continuously performing void shuttles, it would take at least a hundred to several hundred years to arrive.

"Hm?"

At this moment, Lin Yuan's heart stirred slightly.

"Galaxy."

Venerable Gu Ming transmitted a message.

Lin Yuan looked across from him, where the figure of Venerable Gu Ming condensed.

Of course, what condensed was only the Incarnation of Venerable Gu Ming, and it could only descend and condense with Lin Yuan's consent.

"A major event has occurred."

Venerable Gu Ming had a solemn expression and quickly stated the intelligence he had just learned: "In the Barren Void between the Yi Yun Void Domain and the Anbo Void Domain, an Acquired Universe has appeared."

Just how important was an Acquired Universe? It was enough to drive Great Saints crazy. Once this news spread, it would only spread at an incomparably terrifying speed.

As a veteran Chaos Realm expert, Venerable Gu Ming knew many venerables and naturally also obtained this news.

"An Acquired Universe?"

Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged, but ripples surged in his heart.

The location mentioned by Venerable Gu Ming was precisely the spatial-temporal coordinates that Lin Yuan sensed through the map on the animal skin.

Coupled with the suddenly appearing Acquired Universe, Lin Yuan could almost be certain that this Acquired Universe was related to Your Majesty Xuan Huang, or even created by Your Majesty Xuan Huang himself.

The Mausoleum represented by the map on the animal skin was probably within this Acquired Universe.

"Now many venerables are rushing toward there, among whom there is no shortage of Chaotic Realm Peak, and there are probably even Great Saints. If that Acquired Universe weren't so far away from here, I would even want to go over and take a look."

Venerable Gu Ming said, shaking his head.

"It is indeed very far." Lin Yuan nodded.

The Barren Void between the Yi Yun Void Domain and the Anbo Void Domain would require even him to perform full-force Void Realm shuttles for hundreds of years to arrive.

Venerable Gu Ming probably couldn't arrive even in thousands or tens of thousands of years.

"Forget it, the distance is too far. Even if I rushed over, the competition would probably have ended long ago."

Lin Yuan thought about it for a moment and pondered inwardly.

With his Foundation and opportunities, the so-called Peerless Great Saint's exploration of the Thirteenth Order was not something he absolutely had to have.
