Chapter 611: Inconceivable Strength

“Dark Heaven Palace?”

Lin Yuan felt the source of the space-time fluctuations and, by comparing it with the beast hide map, made a judgment in his heart.

The Dark Heaven Palace was a critical location in the Xuanhuang Universe, harboring the dark heaven heart within, which was a treasure at the level of a Peerless Great Saint.

Since Lin Yuan entered the Xuanhuang Universe, aside from that nearly three-meter-long life god stone, the many treasures and rarities he had obtained were all at the level of a Chaotic Great Saint or below.

As for the Peerless Great Saint level?

Even when the Xuanhuang Lineage still existed, treasures of the Peerless Great Saint level were rare, mostly located in the inner and deep regions of the Universe.

“With my current strength…”

Lin Yuan's heart stirred slightly.

Before entering the Xuanhuang Universe, Lin Yuan had planned routes based on the beast hide map and had not considered the Dark Heaven Palace as a stopping point.

This was because the exterior of the Dark Heaven Palace was filled with the power of dark heaven, a power even stronger than the power of Futou. With Lin Yuan's strength at the time, wanting to enter the Dark Heaven Palace would have required a significant amount of time.

Therefore, Lin Yuan had not considered it.

Compared to the Dark Heaven Palace, Lin Yuan valued the deepest Mausoleum even more.

But times had changed.

Back then, it would have been quite difficult for Lin Yuan to enter the Dark Heaven Palace, but now?

After cultivating the second layer of the Infinite Void, Lin Yuan's strength had surged across the board. The power of dark heaven, which was once enough to stop him for a moment, posed little threat now.

Furthermore, judging by the space-time fluctuations coming from the Dark Heaven Palace at this moment, it had clearly emerged. If Lin Yuan did not go now, it would definitely attract other Great Saints.

Experts like the Black Obsidian Great Saint and the Dual Source Great Saint both had the strength to enter the Dark Heaven Palace; it would simply take them a bit more time.

“I will head over there.”

With a thought, Lin Yuan's Solar Nascent Soul stepped out to proceed along the planned route toward the depths of the Xuanhuang Universe on his behalf.

As for Lin Yuan's true body, he immediately shuttled rapidly toward the direction of the Dark Heaven Palace.

The enhancement brought to Lin Yuan by the second layer of the Infinite Void was comprehensive. It was not just an upgrade to his true body; his two great Primordial Spirits had also improved significantly.

Now, the strength of the Solar Nascent Soul was even greater than that of Lin Yuan's true body before he entered the Xuanhuang Universe.

“This time, I was truly screwed over by that Dual Source.”

The Black Obsidian Great Saint's face was grim as he rapidly advanced toward the depths of the Xuanhuang Universe.

As the tenth to enter the Xuanhuang Universe, the Black Obsidian Great Saint had little room for choice and could only head straight toward the depths of the Xuanhuang Universe.

He had no time to search carefully along the way, resulting in him having gained nothing so far.

As a dignified Chaotic Great Saint, and a powerful one among them, entering an Acquired Universe and having no decent harvest so far was unacceptable to the Black Obsidian Great Saint.

“That fellow Dual Source is indeed detestable, but he…”

The Black Obsidian Great Saint thought of Lin Yuan. If not for Lin Yuan, he would have been at least the third to enter the Xuanhuang Universe.

“Damn it, where on earth did he pop out from?”

The Black Obsidian Great Saint was furious. Although Lin Yuan's final slap had sent him flying, in reality, the Black Obsidian Great Saint had not suffered the slightest injury.

From that strike, the Black Obsidian Great Saint judged that Lin Yuan's strength should be similar to his, at the same level.

“Hmm?”

Just then, the Black Obsidian Great Saint's expression shifted as he felt a dense wave of space-time fluctuations.

“It's over there…”

The Black Obsidian Great Saint looked over, feeling slightly excited.

Such dense space-time fluctuations were an anomaly generated when a major treasure emerged, stirring the surrounding space and time.

“In this Acquired Universe, the pressure of the Space-Time Rule is extremely high, yet it still generates such a dense space-time anomaly.”

“A treasure at the Peerless Great Saint level, it must be a treasure at the Peerless Great Saint level!”

Without hesitation, the Black Obsidian Great Saint headed toward the source of the space-time fluctuations.

A treasure of the Peerless Great Saint level was something even Peerless Great Saints would fight for with all their might. If he, a Chaotic Great Saint, obtained it, even if he couldn't use it himself, he could trade it with a Peerless Great Saint.

“These space-time fluctuations…”

In another direction, the Dual Source Great Saint, transformed into a blue-gray light, suddenly stopped. “A treasure of the Peerless Great Saint level.”

“Even if the creator of this Acquired Universe was once close to an Invincible Great Saint, they certainly wouldn't have too many treasures that reach the Peerless Great Saint level.”

The Dual Source Great Saint thought to himself. After hesitating for just a moment, he immediately headed toward the source of the fluctuations.

Without knowing if there were other Peerless Great Saint level treasures in the depths of the Universe, the Dual Source Great Saint was naturally unwilling to give up the treasure at the source of these space-time fluctuations.

“That is…”

The Celestial Fortune Great Saint, Nine Phoenix Great Saint, Shadow Demon Great Saint, and other Chaotic Great Saints also felt the sweeping space-time fluctuations and judged that a treasure of the Peerless Great Saint level was about to emerge.

“Such a treasure…”

Experts like the Celestial Fortune Great Saint and the Nine Phoenix Great Saint did not hesitate, immediately heading toward the source of the space-time fluctuations.

Outside the entrance of the Xuanhuang Universe, the reason these Great Saints had not competed with the Dual Source Great Saint, Lin Yuan, and the other four Great Saints to enter the Xuanhuang Universe first…

Aside from the factor of strength…

There was also a crucial point—

There were no clear benefits right in front of them.

Who said that entering the Xuanhuang Universe first guaranteed a harvest?

And whether there were treasures in this Acquired Universe worth risking their lives to fight for was still up in the air.

As Chaotic Great Saints, they were all pragmatic figures who wouldn't act without seeing concrete benefits. Without clear advantages, how could anyone expect them to fight to the death?

But now…

Space-time fluctuations of this magnitude clearly demonstrated that the treasure about to emerge had reached the Peerless Great Saint level.

A treasure of the Peerless Great Saint level was enough for these Chaotic Great Saints to fight with all their might.

In the face of such a treasure, newly ascended Great Saints like the Nine Phoenix Great Saint and the Shadow Demon Great Saint dared to compete with the Dual Source Great Saint and the Black Obsidian Great Saint.

Further away, the Chaotic Venerables also felt this wave of space-time fluctuations.

“A major treasure, it's definitely a major treasure.”

“Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with us.”

The eyes of many Chaotic Venerables burned with desire, but they were quickly doused like cold water and calmed down.

Newly ascended Great Saints like the Nine Phoenix Great Saint and the Shadow Demon Great Saint dared to compete with the Dual Source Great Saint and the Black Obsidian Great Saint because they were all at the Chaos Realm Perfection.

Even if there was a gap in strength, it wasn't too massive. At least, it would be very difficult for the Dual Source Great Saint to kill a newly ascended Great Saint; after all, they weren't stones and would flee for their lives.

But Chaos Venerables?

Let alone a powerful Great Saint like the Dual Source Great Saint, even a newly ascended Great Saint could kill a Chaos Venerable with ease.

If they, these Chaos Venerables, dared to join in the excitement, no matter how many lives they had, it wouldn't be enough.

“Although it has nothing to do with us, we can get closer to take a look.”

“Indeed, what does such a treasure actually look like?”

Some Chaos Venerables were curious and began to approach the source of the fluctuations. As long as they watched from afar and showed no intention of competing, the Great Saints would likely not bother with them.

“I've arrived.”

Lin Yuan's figure appeared, looking at a dark palace not far away.

At this moment, this palace was slowly emerging from the depths of space-time, its surroundings filled with the deep power of dark heaven.

“Normally, the Dark Heaven Palace is located in the depths of space-time and is hard to find without guidance. Now that the Dark Heaven Palace is actively emerging, is it because the external space-time of the Xuanhuang Universe is gradually collapsing, thereby affecting the space-time here?”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

The early emergence of the Dark Heaven Palace was also one of the reasons he came over.

If it remained hidden in the depths of space-time, Lin Yuan could have waited until he came out of the Mausoleum before coming over.

“Once it completely emerges from the depths of space-time, I can directly take the dark heaven heart inside.”

Lin Yuan stood where he was, waiting patiently.

Just then.

A slight wave of space-time shuttling fluctuations emerged.

The Dual Source Great Saint was the second to arrive.

“Is that the palace?”

The Dual Source Great Saint did not have the guidance of Lin Yuan's detailed map, but he immediately noticed the dark palace as well.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Very quickly,

the Black Obsidian Great Saint and Great Saint Kuang Man also arrived smoothly.

Followed closely by the Celestial Fortune Great Saint, Nine Phoenix Great Saint, and Shadow Demon Great Saint.

“The treasure is inside the palace.”

All the Great Saints stared with burning eyes at the dark palace slowly emerging from the depths of space-time.

“Your Excellency indeed has unique methods for distorting space-time, but wanting to compete with me for the treasure in this palace is still a bit lacking.”

The Dual Source Great Saint stared at Lin Yuan and said, “The path of power I master happens to counter you. If we were to fight with all our might, you would definitely not be my opponent.”

If he could make Lin Yuan back off just by speaking, the Dual Source Great Saint was more than willing.

“Is that so?”

Lin Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, casting a glance at the Dual Source Great Saint.

What the Dual Source Great Saint said was not wrong. Although they had not fought with all their might outside the Xuanhuang Universe, the blue-gray power he mastered could indeed disrupt space-time to a great extent.

But that was under the premise of similar strength.

Water can extinguish fire, but can a single drop of water extinguish a wildfire that fills the sky?

“Kuangman, why don't you and I team up…” the Black Obsidian Great Saint secretly transmitted his voice to Great Saint Kuang Man.

“Team up?” Great Saint Kuang Man's heart stirred. He was indeed willing to team up with Black Obsidian; after all, the containment and suppression capabilities of the Black Obsidian Domain were obvious to all.

“Who are we targeting?”

Great Saint Kuang Man immediately replied.

“How about him.” The Black Obsidian Great Saint pondered for a moment and glanced at Lin Yuan.

Choosing Lin Yuan was the result of the Black Obsidian Great Saint's careful consideration. Lin Yuan's ability was similar to the Black Obsidian Domain and could even suppress it.

This made the Black Obsidian Great Saint very wary of him. As for the Dual Source Great Saint? The Black Obsidian Great Saint had interacted with him many times and understood his methods quite well.

If he really had to choose between Lin Yuan and the Dual Source Great Saint, the Black Obsidian Great Saint felt that Lin Yuan posed a greater threat.

“Target him?”

“No problem.”

Great Saint Kuang Man grinned. He also favored taking action against Lin Yuan first.

After all, among the many Great Saints on the field, only Lin Yuan's background was unclear. Keeping such an expert whose methods were unknown around made Great Saint Kuang Man somewhat uneasy.

Rumble…

Just then,

the dark palace not far away completely emerged from the depths of space-time.

A dense wave of space-time fluctuations began to spread in all directions.

“Do it.”

The Black Obsidian Great Saint immediately activated his Black Obsidian Domain, and infinite darkness began to spread. Great Saint Kuang Man also took a step forward, throwing a punch toward Lin Yuan across space-time.

“Hmm?”

Originally, the Dual Source Great Saint had planned to immediately approach the dark palace, but seeing the actions of the Black Obsidian Great Saint and Great Saint Kuang Man, he immediately realized they wanted to target Lin Yuan.

“Take advantage of his vulnerability to take his life.”

The Dual Source Great Saint transformed into a blue-gray light, similarly piercing toward Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan stood quietly in place, casting a glance at the several auras approaching from behind.

Whoosh…

With a thought, Lin Yuan began to activate the Divine Ability 'World'.

The surrounding Space-Time Dao was completely twisted. At this moment, Lin Yuan's internal Universe had undergone a transformation, and the external Universe formed by it similarly surged massively in power.

Buzz.

The Dual Source Great Saint, who had transformed into a blue-gray light, was directly imprisoned in place under the heavy space-time suppression, and his figure was forced to reveal itself. He stared at the surrounding world in absolute disbelief, “This kind of suppression?”

“Hmm?”

The Black Obsidian Great Saint's pupils shrank. The moment the external Universe was formed, his Black Obsidian Domain began to collapse, and he was similarly suppressed to the point of being unable to move. “I can't feel the external space-time anymore?”

Great Saint Kuang Man was the same. The punch he threw was only halfway through when he suddenly stumbled, staring blankly at the surrounding space-time.

In the center of the Universe, Lin Yuan stood there. However, in the vision of the other Great Saints, Lin Yuan had already become an Incarnation of an eternal blazing sun, continuously radiating light and heat. Wherever it shone, the Chaos evolution powers of all the Great Saints were crumbling and collapsing.

Such terrifying scene caused the hearts of the Celestial Fortune Great Saint, Shadow Demon Great Saint, and others in the distance, who were planning to look for an opportunity to strike, to tremble.
