Chapter 652: Inconceivable Prestige

Having refined the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar, Lin Yuan once again felt a slight sense of control over the precious land in his heart.

Whether it was ordinary Core Heavenly Pillars or Giant Core Heavenly Pillars, they were essentially key nodes of the precious land.

Theoretically speaking, refining all such nodes was equivalent to controlling the entire precious land.

"The Black Jade Nest only has sixty-three cores, while this precious land has over three hundred cores, plus three Giant Cores."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Undoubtedly, this newly born precious land was definitely the top-tier one among the many first-rate precious lands controlled by the Six Ancient Kingdoms nowadays.

There were only six precious lands of the same level, three of which were still in the hands of Da Fu Ancient Kingdom.

"The use of that golden mist is definitely not simple."

Lin Yuan once again thought of the rare treasures nurtured by this precious land.

So far, the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom's research on the golden mist still remained at slowly absorbing it with their physical bodies.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in front of the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar.

He began to review his brief clash with Celestial Venerable Fu Xu just now.

"Did Celestial Venerable Fu Xu take the initiative to retreat and cede this Giant Core precious land out of worry that fighting me to the death would allow other Ancient Kingdoms to profit?"

Lin Yuan was very clear about Celestial Venerable Fu Xu's thoughts.

Given the Core Heavenly Pillars already occupied and refined by the Fu Xu Ancient Kingdom, this Giant Core Heavenly Pillar wasn't absolutely necessary.

Even if the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom obtained this Giant Core Heavenly Pillar, in terms of the number of refined Core Heavenly Pillars, they still fell short of Da Fu Ancient Kingdom.

Celestial Venerable Fu Xu believed that Da Fu Ancient Kingdom still held an absolute advantage, so there was even less need to fight to the death with Lin Yuan.

"It's just that Celestial Venerable Fu Xu and I…"

Lin Yuan fell into a brief thought; Celestial Venerable Fu Xu's strike had been completely blocked by him using the Chaotic Yin-Yang Taiji diagram.

But this didn't mean Lin Yuan was necessarily stronger than Celestial Venerable Fu Xu; it only showed that under conventional attacks, Celestial Venerable Fu Xu could do nothing to Lin Yuan.

"Celestial Venerable Fu Xu should have mastered two Thirteenth Order Legacies, and his strength is terrifying."

Lin Yuan thought to himself, "I Cultivate the Infinite Void, coupled with the Divine Ability 'Blazing Sun Creation of the Heavens'. The Fusion of the two is also equivalent to two Thirteenth Order Legacy methods."

"Moreover, the Chaotic Yin Yang Taiji Path I have evolved is likewise considered a Thirteenth Order method, and is even more powerful than ordinary Thirteenth Order methods. After all, this is my Dao, which fits myself perfectly."

Lin Yuan analyzed in his heart.

The cultivation threshold for Thirteenth Order Legacies was extremely high, and mastering two Thirteenth Order Legacies simultaneously was extremely rare and uncommon.

As for the Infinite Void that Lin Yuan cultivated, despite it going smoothly, it was because Lin Yuan's Comprehension Ability was Heaven-Defying. If it were other Experts, just the trials under the jade gourd state would be extremely difficult to endure.

Even if they managed to endure it, most would end up lingering at the threshold.

Inside the treasury of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom, there was a Thirteenth Order Legacy named 《Heart of the Blazing Sun》.

To master this Legacy, one of the thresholds was that one must constantly maintain the Blazing Sun state of mind. Under this state of mind, the cultivator's reason was completely replaced by the blazing sun. To put it simply, they had almost no reason, acting impulsively and irritably, and so on.

Of course, once 《Heart of the Blazing Sun》 was mastered, one's own heart would transform toward the heart of a Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform. Even if in the end it only had one ten-thousandth or one hundred-thousandth of the might of a true Thirteenth Order lifeform's heart, it would still be enough to sweep across all Celestial Reverends.

When it came to boosting and enhancing combat power, this kind of Legacy transforming toward the Thirteenth Order was definitely superior to other Thirteenth Order Legacies.

Yet Lin Yuan kept his distance from it.

For this kind of Thirteenth Order Legacy, even if Lin Yuan fully met the requirements, he wouldn't try to Cultivate it. Losing most of his reason? The future trouble was simply too great.

"The gap between Celestial Venerable Fu Xu and me lies mainly in the Realm of life. After all, I am only a Sovereign Realm lifeform."

Lin Yuan thought to himself, but he didn't care too much.

With his current Realm, as long as he stepped into the Chaos period, he would directly reach the Chaos Realm Perfection, since he had already evolved the Chaotic Yin Yang Taiji Path.

"My biggest advantage is not the Universe within my body, not the Infinite Void, nor the Blazing Sun Creation of the Heavens, but the Dao I have evolved myself."

Lin Yuan's gaze was slightly burning.

Just the first level of the Chaotic Yin Yang Taiji Path caused his strength to increase to such an extent; once cultivated to the second level or even the third level, wouldn't that be incredible?

Compared to the Chaotic Yin Yang Taiji Path with such potential, probably only the Infinite Void cultivated to the seventh layer could suppress it slightly.

However, cultivating the Infinite Void to the seventh layer was ultimately just a theory, and even the creator wasn't sure. Lin Yuan considered himself incomparable to a true Time Lifeform.

Compared to that, the third-level Chaotic Yin Yang Taiji Path was more reliable.

Just as Lin Yuan was reviewing his own strength,

the Peak Heavenly Venerables everywhere in the precious land were instantly in an uproar.

Compared to the semi-illusory Core Heavenly Pillars, the aura of the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar radiated in all directions and could not be concealed at all.

Even Celestial Reverends, as long as they sensed it slightly, could feel the towering aura of the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar.

It's just that the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar was originally occupied by Da Fu Ancient Kingdom and refined by Celestial Venerable Fu Xu; so what if they felt it?

However, right now,

the slight change in the aura emitted by the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar made a thought emerge in the minds of all the Peak Heavenly Venerables—

the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar had changed hands.

"Wasn't that Giant Core Heavenly Pillar refined by Celestial Venerable Fu Xu? How could it change hands?"

"Who on earth is it? Outside of Da Fu Ancient Kingdom, among the Peak Heavenly Venerables sent in by the other five Ancient Kingdoms this time, is there still a hidden Expert not weaker than Celestial Venerable Fu Xu?"

"Being able to force Celestial Venerable Fu Xu to cede the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar… How is this possible?"

The Peak Heavenly Venerables were shocked in their hearts. The battle fluctuations that originally occurred over at the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar had already surprised them immensely.

Now, even the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar had changed hands.

Given the importance of the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar, it was impossible for Celestial Venerable Fu Xu not to have descended. Since he had descended and it still changed hands, it meant Celestial Venerable Fu Xu had voluntarily backed down.

"It is Milky Way Heavenly Lord. That Giant Core Heavenly Pillar was refined by Milky Way Heavenly Lord."

"Milky Way Heavenly Lord? Didn't he just enter the Realm of Celestial Reverends?"

"Milky Way Heavenly Lord snatched the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar from the hands of Celestial Venerable Fu Xu?"

Many Peak Heavenly Venerables were somewhat dumbfounded. They had anticipated that other Ancient Kingdoms had deliberately hidden Experts, but they hadn't expected this Expert to be Milky Way Heavenly Lord.

The particularity of Milky Way Heavenly Lord was unique among the Six Ancient Kingdoms; he was the first royal family member to excavate the ancestral Bloodline to the Celestial Reverend level.

However, the time was too short. For the royal family to excavate Bloodline Power, it was indeed much easier in terms of strength enhancement, but it was only much easier, rather than directly leaping to the peak in one step.

"Is this the ancestral Bloodline at the Celestial Reverend level?" Many Peak Heavenly Venerables had their thoughts drifting, already planning to go back and thoroughly study the ancestral Bloodline after this precious land contest ended.

Before Lin Yuan, truly powerful Peak Heavenly Venerables somewhat looked down on ancestral Bloodlines because the restrictions were too great.

But now?

Numerous Peak Heavenly Venerables no longer held any stereotypes against ancestral Bloodlines.

The mysterious and ancient Da Fu Capital City was the first city of this Origin World, and also the birthplace of the first ancestor. It held great significance for Da Fu Ancient Kingdom as well as the other five Ancient Kingdoms, serving as the birthplace of everything.

Even though among the five ancestors, three were not born in Da Fu Ancient Kingdom, being able to become an ancestor was also closely related to the Da Fu Ancestor.

After all, the initial cultivation Dao and cultivation system of this heaven and earth originated from the Da Fu Ancestor.

In the deepest part of the capital city.

Several figures gathered here.

Beside them, scenes were flashing by, which were precisely the scenes of Lin Yuan breaking through the eleven Peak Heavenly Venerables of Da Fu Ancient Kingdom and finally taking Celestial Venerable Fu Xu's strike head-on.

Celestial Venerable Fu Xu was also among them. He quietly watched the flashing scenes, his expression occasionally falling into thought.

"Tsk tsk, this Milky Way Heavenly Lord has quite remarkable methods. The chaotic power Dao he evolved is very extraordinary."

"Indeed, I can tell that he should have cultivated a Thirteenth Order Legacy, but blocking Fu Xu's full-strength strike still relied primarily on the chaotic power Dao he evolved himself."

"Such a powerful chaotic power Dao, truly rare, truly rare."

Several figures spoke one after another, evaluating Milky Way Heavenly Lord.

"One Thirteenth Order Legacy, coupled with ancestral Bloodline Power at the Celestial Reverend level, as well as an extraordinary Chaos evolution Dao, this Milky Way Heavenly Lord still has quite a lot of room for improvement."

"Indeed, if he masters another Thirteenth Order Legacy, unless we join forces, we probably won't be his match."

Several figures communicated, giving Lin Yuan a very high evaluation.

"The chaotic power evolution Dao evolved by this Milky Way Heavenly Lord should not have reached the third level yet; it lacks that sense of Perfection." At this moment, a voice that had never spoken suddenly piped up.

"A chaotic power evolution Dao that has not yet reached the third level?" Hearing this, the expressions of the other figures were slightly startled.

The Chaos evolution power Dao was divided into three levels, and the gaps between them were huge, especially the second level and the third level, which represented the gap from ordinary Celestial Reverends to Peak Heavenly Venerables, or even top-tier Peak Heavenly Venerables.

"Fu Xu, you've fought him. Is that so?" A figure looked at Celestial Venerable Fu Xu and asked.

The scenes flashing before them were ultimately just images. Even if they originated from Celestial Venerable Fu Xu's memory, they certainly couldn't compare to being personally present at the scene.

"Correct."

Celestial Venerable Fu Xu was silent for a moment before nodding and saying.

The third layer of the Chaos evolution Dao was the Perfection Realm. An evolution Dao that reached this level would have a sense of ultimate limit where it could advance no further.

And in this regard, Celestial Venerable Fu Xu had not felt it from the Chaotic Yin-Yang Taiji diagram evolved by Milky Way Heavenly Lord.

"Could it be that in this era, our Six Ancient Kingdoms are going to give birth to an Expert superior to the Strongest Celestial Venerable?"

A figure couldn't help saying.

Ever since the Six Ancient Kingdoms were established, the Strongest Celestial Venerable had always been the ceiling of the Celestial Reverend level, but with the strength currently displayed by Milky Way Heavenly Lord, it was very likely to break this ceiling.

"Hehe, don't say that. The more powerful the Chaos evolution power Dao is, the harder it is to reach the Perfection level."

Another figure spoke with no great worry, "Besides, even if that Milky Way Heavenly Lord really reaches that step, what impact would it have on us?"

"Short of the ancestor level, could he possibly threaten Da Fu Ancient Kingdom? When it reaches the ancestor level, that's a problem the ancestors should think about, and it has even less to do with us."

As soon as these words came out,

the remaining figures thought about it carefully and immediately nodded in agreement.

"The ancestor level… I wonder if we still have any hope of stepping into it."

Several figures had their thoughts drifting. For Celestial Reverends, what they desired most was to break through the time cycle and step into the Thirteenth Order ancestor Realm.

However, this was too difficult. Since the Da Fu Ancestor established Da Fu Ancient Kingdom, over endless years, only five ancestors had been born.

The figures present were all the Strongest Celestial Reverends of Da Fu Ancient Kingdom, having possessed the ancestors more than once. The more they possessed them, the more they could feel the gap between the ancestors and themselves.

This gap was not a gap in the level of power, but a gap of a higher level.

"No matter how strong Milky Way Heavenly Lord's strength is, whether he can eventually become an ancestor is still up in the air; the probability won't be much higher than ours." A figure spoke.

"Fu Xu, do you have any certainty in this precious land contest?"

After chatting for a while, several figures looked at Celestial Venerable Fu Xu.

Originally, Da Fu Ancient Kingdom sending a Strongest Celestial Venerable like Celestial Venerable Fu Xu to fight for that precious land meant victory was already in their grasp, but they hadn't expected a Milky Way Heavenly Lord to pop up.

"Conventional methods can do nothing to that Milky Way Heavenly Lord, but if we truly fight for our lives, the current Milky Way Heavenly Lord might not necessarily be my match."

Celestial Venerable Fu Xu said.

Perhaps in the future, Milky Way Heavenly Lord's strength would surpass his, but right now?

The reason why Celestial Venerable Fu Xu took the initiative to cede the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar was because he didn't want other Ancient Kingdoms to profit at the expense of both sides, and there were still nearly a thousand years left until the end of the precious land contest. Currently, Da Fu Ancient Kingdom's advantage still remained, and so on.

He wasn't afraid of that Milky Way Heavenly Lord.

"That's good."

"What a pity. Had I known that an Expert like Milky Way Heavenly Lord would appear in this precious land contest, I would have participated too."

Several figures talked with each other. At their height, fighting with Experts of the same level was also a kind of pleasure.

Inside the precious land.

Outside the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar.

The eleven Peak Heavenly Venerables of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom arrived here.

"Milky Way Heavenly Lord… Has Milky Way Heavenly Lord really taken back this Giant Heavenly Pillar?" Until now, Guanglie Celestial was still somewhat in disbelief.

As a top-tier Peak Heavenly Venerable, he knew too well how powerful Celestial Venerable Fu Xu was. Even he would have to borrow the heritage killing weapon of the Ancient Kingdom to barely contend with the other party.

If Celestial Venerable Fu Xu also used the heritage killing weapon, they would have to unite with other Ancient Kingdoms to counter him.

This was also a scene that would inevitably appear in the Late Stage of the precious land contest. With the strength of Da Fu Ancient Kingdom, it would definitely attract the joint forces of other Ancient Kingdoms.

"Milky Way Heavenly Lord's strength is simply too strong."

Hengyang Celestial sighed with emotion. When the quota for entering the precious land was initially determined, he had still been slightly dissatisfied with the Emperor of Lieyang Ancient Kingdom forcefully stuffing this royal family member in.

"Alright."

Just at this moment, Chiyan Celestial finally spoke, "Milky Way is letting us in."

"Mn."

The other Peak Heavenly Venerables nodded.

At this moment, the leading Celestial Reverend of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom had quietly changed from Chiyan Celestial to Milky Way Heavenly Lord.

There was no other way.

Among the Six Ancient Kingdoms, the strong were revered; this was an ironclad rule. Milky Way Heavenly Lord possessing the strength of the Strongest Celestial Venerable had already been universally recognized.

Moreover, Milky Way Heavenly Lord capturing the Giant Core Heavenly Pillar was of great significance to this precious land contest.

It eased the pressure on the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom to occupy more Core Heavenly Pillars later on.

With strength attained, merit was also attained.

If Milky Way Heavenly Lord wasn't the leading Celestial Reverend, who would be?
