Chapter 719: Grab and Run

On the way to the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers, Lin Yuan never stopped observing his own future timeline.

Through his encounters in the timeline, he conducted repeated 'trial and error'.

He judged whether or not he should make a move, as well as the various possible consequences that would arise after doing so.

If he could bear the consequences of making a move, he would seize it.

If he couldn't, or if the price to pay was too high, he would watch from afar.

And the current time node and location were where Lin Yuan encountered the Opportunity with the greatest value in the timelines he observed.

"In the future timeline, this Opportunity has already been targeted by two Time Lifeforms. They even laid out plans for countless years just waiting for it to mature today."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Previously, whenever his observation of the timeline reached this node, it would become blurred.

Through subsequent in-depth observation, Lin Yuan discovered that those two Time Lifeforms were quite extraordinary.

If he made a move to snatch it from them, it might lead to drawing the gaze of a true Time Lord through these two Time Lifeforms.

Whether in the Chaos Void, the First Source World, or the Second Source World,

the Time Lifeforms Lin Yuan encountered were extremely friendly to him and even sought to befriend him at all costs.

This was because he coexisted in the same dimensional space with them, making them natural allies.

Once this dimensional space shattered and entered the dimensional gaps, they would be Time Lifeforms of the same faction.

But for Time Lifeforms outside the dimensional space, that was not necessarily the case.

Upon perceiving the uniqueness of Lin Yuan's future timeline, their first thought might not be to befriend him.

Instead, they might inform any Time Lord they could reach about this matter.

Probably no Time Lifeform would be willing to offend a future Time Lord like Lin Yuan.

But leaking Lin Yuan's news and telling another Time Lord was still a possibility.

Of course, it was only a possibility.

But Lin Yuan had to guard against it.

Therefore, on the way to the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers,

Lin Yuan tried his best to avoid any contact with other Time Lifeforms.

With the methods of Time Lifeforms, the moment contact was made, they could trace the relevant timelines along Karma,

and thereby understand Lin Yuan's true background.

Therefore,

previously, when Lin Yuan discovered this Opportunity in the timeline and after repeated deliberation,

he ultimately chose to give up.

Although this Opportunity was of great value,

before stepping into the Thirteenth Order, Lin Yuan did not want to be too high-profile.

However, what about now?

The Awakening of the eighth Physical Body Divine Ability, 'Lords Authority',

caused Lin Yuan's own timeline to begin sealing off.

Even if he came into contact with other Time Lifeforms, it would be very difficult for them to detect even a fraction of it.

Peeping into Lin Yuan's timeline was much harder than peeping into the timeline of a Time Lifeform of the same level.

"I can give it a try."

Lin Yuan stood quietly in the boundless dimensional gaps, viewing one timeline after another between breaths.

Under the blessing of Lords Authority, the timelines Lin Yuan saw were much easier than before, and even viewing the timelines of those Time Lifeforms was no longer blurry and distorted, but became clear.

Before long, Lin Yuan had already observed hundreds to thousands of timelines.

These were all timelines where he made a move to contend for the Opportunity and came into contact with those two Time Lifeforms.

During this time, whether successful or failed, no hidden dangers were left behind.

"In that case,"

Lin Yuan made up his mind, "Then I'll make a move."

Reaching the Thirteenth Order Time Life stage, the demand for resources was equally massive.

Which of the transformations of Time Lifeforms themselves did not require resources as vast as mountains and seas?

The true bodies of the seven Time Lifeforms in the Chaos Void were all in seclusion and slumber within the Chaos Void, but their main combat Clones basically fought desperately in the dimensional gaps, contending with other Time Lifeforms for key resources.

The other two Origin Worlds were the same.

Why did the Time Lifeforms of the three dimensional spaces attach such great importance to Lin Yuan?

Because once Lin Yuan grew up, their pressure would be reduced by a huge margin.

Time Lifeforms were high above, but they also faced many pressures.

"That Opportunity still has a hundred years before it completely matures."

Lin Yuan's thoughts flickered. Since he was ready to contend for it, he would naturally go all out.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan began to use the Taiji Primordial Spirit as an 'anchor point' to summon his true body.

It took decades to a century for the Taiji Primordial Spirit to rush here.

But his true body? Its strength was different, so its speed was naturally different. Coupled with the Taiji Primordial Spirit as the 'anchor point', the span of shuttling through time and space was also greatly enhanced.

For the true body to rush here, it would take at most a few years.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, over a hundred years passed.

A blackish-gray giant tree of unknown height floated slowly among the boundless dimensional gaps.

This blackish-gray giant tree was named the Nightmare Tree, a quite famous hazardous place in the dimensional gaps, which also nurtured the Nightmare clan.

Born from the Nightmare Tree, the Nightmare clan mastered many incredible methods. Relying on the main body of the Nightmare Tree, they became almost the most powerful faction beneath Time Lifeforms.

At this moment, at the top of the blackish-gray Nightmare Tree, a fruit covered in black and gray colors was gradually maturing.

This fruit was named the Nightmare Fruit. Refining it would cause one to experience various nightmares, which had miraculous effects on enhancing one's mental will.

However, compared to past Nightmare Fruits, this Nightmare Fruit was much larger.

Normal Nightmare Fruits were only ten meters in size, but this Nightmare Fruit reached a full ten thousand meters in diameter.

"Oh my god, just what kind of nightmare can such a huge Nightmare Fruit shape? How great will the enhancement to the mental will be?"

"A ten-thousand-meter-large Nightmare Fruit?"

In an instant, countless members of the Nightmare clan went crazy.

Without hesitation, they headed toward the Nightmare Fruit.

Just at this moment—the space-time around the Nightmare Tree solidified.

An incomparably huge face emerged and took a gentle breath toward the Nightmare Tree.

Instantly, countless members of the Nightmare clan were sucked into that giant mouth, and even the Nightmare Fruit at the very top began to sway precariously.

"No!"

"It's a great Time Lifeform."

The expressions of countless Nightmare clan members were extremely despairing. They never expected that the Nightmare Fruit borne by the Nightmare Tree this time would attract a great Time Lifeform.

In the dimensional gaps, Time Lifeforms were the undisputed overlords, able to roam wantonly.

"Qianmian Chuan, this Nightmare Fruit is mine."

Rumble~ The huge face opened its mouth and inhaled, making the Nightmare Fruit sway precariously. Not far away, a towering giant hand suddenly condensed and grabbed toward the Nightmare Fruit.

"Ling Hangui, if you want this Nightmare Fruit, show your skills." The huge face seemed to have expected this long ago, stopped inhaling, and roared at the towering giant hand.

As a Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform, long before the Nightmare Fruit matured, it had observed the relevant timelines countless times and made many preparations.

Swish!

Space-time turned into powder.

The two Time Lifeforms immediately began to fight fiercely.

Whether it was the Time Lifeform 'Qianmian Chuan' or the Time Lifeform 'Ling Hangui', their strengths were at the same level.

Only thus would they make a move to contend for the Nightmare Fruit.

Because both sides had hope of seizing the Nightmare Fruit.

If the gap in strength between the two was too large, the weaker party would have little certainty,

and would not participate in the contention for the Nightmare Fruit at all.

"The Nightmare Fruit." Just as the two Time Lifeforms were fighting bitterly,

a figure quietly appeared at the very top of the Nightmare Tree—it was none other than Lin Yuan.

"This Nightmare Fruit can greatly enhance the mental will of a Time Lifeform. Even among rare treasures of the Thirteenth Order level, it can be considered rare."

Desire welled up in Lin Yuan's eyes.

The black jade produced by the Black Jade Nest in the First Source World no longer enhanced his mental will significantly. Once he stepped into the Thirteenth Order, it probably wouldn't have even the slightest effect.

At least Lin Yuan had never heard of the Six Ancestors needing black jade to enhance their own mental will.

Therefore, this Nightmare Fruit was extremely precious.

"Collect."

Lin Yuan reached out and put away the Nightmare Fruit.

The ten-thousand-meter-large Nightmare Fruit directly entered Lin Yuan's internal Universe.

Instantly, Karma was isolated.

"Who is it?"

The disappearance of the Nightmare Fruit immediately drew the attention of the two Time Lifeforms.

In the many future timelines they observed, the only ones contending for the Nightmare Fruit were the two of them.

Therefore, they had lowered their vigilance and placed most of their energy on fighting each other.

In the future timelines they saw, only by defeating the other party could they finally obtain the Nightmare Fruit.

But now?

The Nightmare Fruit suddenly disappeared,

and Lin Yuan appeared out of thin air.

This exceeded the expectations of the two Time Lifeforms.

This was a scene that had never appeared in the future timelines they had watched.

"Many thanks, both of you."

Lin Yuan looked at the two Time Lifeforms in the distance and smiled slightly.

His figure disappeared silently.

"No!"

'Qianmian Chuan' suddenly let out an angry roar, and an invisible Soul attack, following the ethereal Karma, directly landed on Lin Yuan.

Beyond an infinite distance,

Lin Yuan's figure suddenly appeared.

Following closely, his mind trembled.

Attack after attack struck. These attacks came from the angry strike of a Time Lifeform. Even Lin Yuan could only resist with all his might, and it was only after dispersing them through the countless Hengsha particle worlds within his body that he managed to block them all.

"Go."

Lin Yuan did not hesitate. With his current strength, confronting two Time Lifeforms head-on? That was basically impossible.

It was even very difficult to contend with a single normal Time Lifeform. In the Second Source World, Lin Yuan fought desperately with the Demon God because the Demon God was not a normal Time Lifeform and could not observe future timelines.

Swish.

Lin Yuan's figure disappeared again.

When it came to escape speed, Lin Yuan considered himself inferior to no Time Lifeform. His comprehension of the Space-Time Dao was already at the level of a Time Lifeform.

Beside the Nightmare Tree,

the two Time Lifeforms, 'Qianmian Chuan' and 'Ling Hangui', wore furious expressions. They had waited for long, long years just for the day when this special Nightmare Fruit matured, only for it to be snatched away by another Time Lifeform?

"Who on earth is it?"

Time Lifeform 'Qianmian Chuan' originally intended to give chase directly.

But the rationality in its heart made it casually look at Lin Yuan's timeline.

Just with this single look, 'Qianmian Chuan' instantly felt a chill in its heart.

"This?"

Time Lifeform 'Qianmian Chuan' was shocked. The timeline it observed was blurry and hazy, as if it had been completely sealed off, and it couldn't see any useful information at all.

"Must never provoke."

Time Lifeform 'Qianmian Chuan' immediately gave up the idea of chasing.

Being able to seal one's own timeline to this extent, even if not a Time Lord, was not far off.

The other Time Lifeform, 'Ling Hangui', also immediately gave up the idea of chasing, its expression suspicious and uncertain.
