Chapter 722: A New Time Lifeform?

The entire Human Civilization race was buzzing with excitement due to the treasure repository being "updated".

But for Lin Yuan, who caused all this, he did not pay too much attention to it.

After bestowing numerous dimensional rare treasures, he did not continue to meddle.

How those dimensional rare treasures were exchanged and how many Merit Points they required were all measured by the Three Goddesses.

After the Human Civilization race stepped out of the Home Universe, Lin Yuan made a few moves to "upgrade" the Three Goddesses.

Now, the computing power of the Three Goddesses was so formidable that even a Peerless Great Saint probably could not compare.

Furthermore, Lin Yuan had never changed the stance of the Three Goddesses; they both stood firmly on the side of the Human Civilization race.

"Parents."

Lin Yuan's gaze was profound, seeing through every corner of the Chaos Void.

The couple Lin Shoucheng and Lu Qiong had already been arranged by Lin Yuan into one of the thirty-three Acquired Universes.

The thirty-three Acquired Universes were the strongest base left behind by Lin Yuan for the Human Civilization race, which could only be exited and never entered.

With the protection of the Universe spirit inside the Acquired Universe, it was no exaggeration to say that the couple Lin Shoucheng and Lu Qiong were absolutely safe.

As for the Lifespan limit below Twelve-Order Life?

If one purely relied on piling up resources, the limit was Eleven-Tier Perfection.

Theoretically, the strength of the Physical Body, Soul will, and even comprehension of rules could all be enhanced through external forces.

But from Eleven-Tier to Twelfth Order? It required an incomparably firm will to make the Ultimate leap, and only upon success could one step into Twelfth Order.

Failure meant death, and one would suffer the backlash of the River of Time in the Chaos Void.

However, the possibility of Lin Yuan's parents stepping into Twelfth Order through the Ultimate leap was not very large.

This was also determined by Lin Yuan through observing future timelines.

However, the extension of the Lifespan limit did not necessarily have to rely on stepping into Twelfth Order.

The essence of the Lifespan limit for life at Eleven-Tier and below was because their fundamental life mark was branded within the River of Time of the current Universe.

If the Universe entered a great cataclysm and the River of Time withered and collapsed accordingly, any fundamental life mark would likewise collapse along with it.

When Lin Yuan was at Eleven-Tier, his Physical Body and Soul were perfect and wish-fulfilling, and his Lifespan had no end, but he would still die and fall with the great cataclysm of the Universe.

What if the Universe did not enter a great cataclysm?

Therefore…

Lin Yuan had long since migrated his parents' fundamental life marks into the River of Time of the Acquired Universe where they resided.

The thirty-three Acquired Universes were the painstaking creations of Lin Yuan, devoid of so-called great cataclysms and great rebirths, coexisting with this Chaos Void.

With the fundamental life marks of the couple Lin Shoucheng and Lu Qiong branded within the River of Time of the Acquired Universe, the Lifespan limit naturally ceased to exist.

This was also something Lin Yuan specifically did for his own parents.

That Acquired Universe was vast and endless; modified by Human Civilization, it had all kinds of entertainment methods, enough for the couple Lin Shoucheng and Lu Qiong to live happily ever after.

Distributing a shred of divine mind to descend into the Acquired Universe to accompany his parents.

Lin Yuan's remaining mind continued to look towards the Chaos Void.

As Lin Yuan observed more deeply, the essence of the Chaos Void bit by bit manifested before his eyes.

"That is…"

Lin Yuan saw the deepest part of the Chaos Void, which was the end of all space-time, where wisps of time power permeated, forming cycle regions entirely composed of time.

"The time cycles that all Chaos Realm Perfection beings who rushed towards Thirteenth Order in the past fell into?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself. Even he could not see through these cycle regions entirely composed of time, as they permeated with the aura of supreme rules across endless dimensional planes.

Regardless of which dimensional space or heaven and earth it was, as long as one rushed towards Thirteenth Order, they would inevitably fall into a time cycle; clearly, this was an ironclad rule formulated by supreme rules.

Therefore, every time cycle was obscured and protected by supreme rules.

"There are too many."

With a single glance, Lin Yuan saw numerous time cycle regions spread out. However, almost all of them had fallen into complete stillness, clearly showing that the Chaos Realm Perfection beings inside had no hope of breaking free.

"Moyu Tower Master…"

Lin Yuan looked towards a certain time cycle near the deep region, and following the faint karmic induction, he determined that this time cycle belonged to Moyu Tower Master.

An Invincible Great Saint who once swept across an era of the Chaos Void.

The time cycle region occupied by Moyu Tower Master was much larger than other surrounding time cycle regions.

Even among Chaos Realm Perfection beings, there were strengths and weaknesses, such as ordinary Great Saints, Peerless Great Saints, Invincible Great Saints, and so on.

This was not only reflected in strength, but even more so in the time cycle region occupied when rushing towards Thirteenth Order.

The stronger the strength, the larger and wider the time cycle region occupied naturally.

"There should be no hope of normal Breakthrough."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

After a Chaos Realm Perfection being fell into a time cycle, naturally, the faster the Breakthrough, the better.

Breakthrough within one cosmic era was best, taking only hundreds or thousands of years if fast.

The longer the time dragged on, the lower the possibility of a Breakthrough.

The era where Moyu Tower Master was located was separated from the present by a long cosmic era, and there was basically no possibility of a Breakthrough anymore.

"After stepping into Thirteenth Order, I can indeed try to break the time cycle where Moyu Tower Master is located," Lin Yuan thought to himself.

A Thirteen Step Time Life could not peep into everything within the time cycle, but could forcibly break it.

It just required paying a price, and no Time Lifeform was willing to do so.

But Lin Yuan had Karma with Moyu Tower Master and had accepted quite a few favors left behind by the other party.

If the price of breaking the time cycle was not large, Lin Yuan was willing to give it a try.

Of course, after the time cycle was broken by external force, even if the life inside regained freedom, they lost the possibility of becoming a Thirteenth Order life.

"There is also Profound Emperor. He forcibly broke the cycle and completely fell. When I become a Time Lifeform, I will resurrect him together, along with his Dao Companion." Lin Yuan thought very far ahead.

A Thirteenth Order life had the ability to resurrect a Twelfth Order life; as long as they had existed before, they could be "resurrected".

Lin Yuan continued to observe the time cycle regions in the deepest part of the Chaos Void.

That innermost region had basically fallen into complete stillness, with no value for observation.

Lin Yuan's gaze mainly lingered on the outer regions; these were the time cycles that Chaos Realm Perfection beings who attempted to rush towards Thirteenth Order in recent several eras had fallen into.

"Hmm?"

"This time cycle region?"

Lin Yuan looked closely at one of the regions. This region was even larger than the one occupied by Moyu Tower Master, obviously also a Chaos Realm Perfection being with the strength of an Invincible Great Saint.

Wisps of time power continuously stirred up ripples, clearly showing that the life inside this time cycle region was violently struggling.

"There is indeed hope of breaking through the time cycle."

Lin Yuan nodded slightly. He perceived with his own Lords Authority, and the conclusion he drew was much more accurate than other Time Lifeforms.

"The master of this time cycle…"

Following the karmic induction, the moment he looked at this time cycle, he established a karmic connection with the master trapped within it.

"Luo Hou Great Saint?"

Lin Yuan muttered to himself.

The moment he uttered this name, the karmic connection deepened, and Lin Yuan immediately began to observe along this Great Saint's timeline.

Past timeline.

Present timeline.

Future timeline.

"I didn't expect that this Great Saint still had such Karma with me?"

Lin Yuan "saw" that Luo Hou Great Saint had once ordered two Peerless Great Saints to investigate the causes of death of Nine Phoenix Great Saint and Shadow Demon Great Saint, and those two Great Saints eventually tracked all the way to the Milky Way Chaos Continent.

As a result, they were casually wiped out by Lin Yuan as an opportunity to establish his prestige.

Afterward, Lin Yuan's reputation as an Invincible Great Saint spread completely.

In the past timeline seen by Lin Yuan, Luo Hou Great Saint, upon witnessing his strength, grew disheartened and abandoned the name of "Invincible Great Saint" that he had always pursued, directly rushing towards Thirteenth Order.

"Luo Hou Great Saint was very eager for the name of Invincible Great Saint. That Thirteenth Order Legacy he cultivated required enduring endless torment, but he still successfully mastered it just because he wanted to become an Invincible Great Saint."

By observing the past of Luo Hou Great Saint, Lin Yuan understood where the other party's obsession lay.

To master that Thirteenth Order Legacy, Luo Hou Great Saint even lurked through cosmic era after cosmic era, outlived the previous Invincible Great Saint, and finally succeeded.

It could be said that Luo Hou Great Saint did not dare to hope to step into Thirteenth Order, but was extremely eager to become an Invincible Great Saint.

"Giving up the obsession of becoming an Invincible Great Saint has instead opened a door to becoming a Time Lifeform?"

Lin Yuan felt quite emotional in his heart.

Perhaps even Luo Hou Great Saint himself had not sensed this.

He gave up becoming an Invincible Great Saint entirely because he considered himself not to be Lin Yuan's match and unable to defeat Lin Yuan; even if he crushed other Peerless Great Saints, he still could not become an Invincible Great Saint.

This led to a change in his state of mind, letting go of what he once desired, and bringing hope for breaking through the time cycle.

"Obsession?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself, "Obsession has a huge impact on breaking through the time cycle. Your Majesty Xuan Huang ultimately refused to accept the trials set by the time cycle precisely because he could not let go of the obsession to resurrect his Dao Companion."

Exactly because Luo Hou Great Saint let go of his own obsession, he now had hope of breaking through the time cycle and becoming a Time Lifeform.

It was also obsession, two choices, neither right nor wrong, yet yielding different results.

Of course, the so-called obsession only had an impact on the time cycle and was not absolute.

Luo Hou Great Saint's accumulation was definitely sufficient; this could be seen from the fact that the time cycle region he occupied was even larger than that of Moyu Tower Master.

Measured by strength, Luo Hou Great Saint surpassed Moyu Tower Master.

On the premise of sufficient foundational accumulation, the choice regarding obsession was very important.

Somewhere in the Chaos Void.

Seven Thirteenth Order Time Lifeforms, including Mo Xu Lord, gathered here.

"It is becoming increasingly impossible to see through Milky Way."

The Time Lifeform wearing black armor exclaimed in a tone of amazement, not only unable to observe Lin Yuan at the timeline level, but as time passed, the feeling Lin Yuan gave them grew increasingly terrifying.

"Being unable to see through him is right."

The human-headed, snake-bodied Time Lifeform shook its head and said, "This is an existence destined to become a Time Lord. I even wonder if it originated from the layout of some Time Lord? Or is it simply a Reincarnation?"

If he wasn't a Time Lord himself, why would the future timeline show that he was destined to become a Time Lord?

"Time Lord?"

The expressions of the other Time Lifeforms turned slightly grave, and then they asked in confusion, "Why would a Time Lord reincarnate into our dimensional space?"

Although the Chaos Void was a top-tier dimensional space, it was not worth a Time Lord giving up everything to reincarnate into it.

Such a price was simply too great.

"Regardless of whether it is a Time Lord Reincarnation, in short, Milky Way is a Time Lifeform of our Chaos Void."

Mo Xu Lord glanced at the six Time Lifeforms and said with a smile, "We come from the same dimensional space, so our relationship will be very close."

"Right."

"Indeed."

The six Time Lifeforms nodded one after another.

Regardless of Lin Yuan's background or layout, as long as they remembered he came from the Chaos Void, that was enough.

Across endless dimensions and planes, Time Lifeforms were born one after another.

And the closest relationships among Time Lifeforms naturally belonged to those coming from the same dimensional space.

With the same hometown, their natural relationship was even closer.

"Right, how are the plans in the Heavenly River Dimension proceeding?"

Mo Xu Lord looked at the six Time Lifeforms.

The Heavenly River Dimension was an incomparably vast yet immensely chaotic dimensional space that did not exclude external Time Lifeforms.

The seven Time Lifeforms of the Chaos Void had entered the Heavenly River Dimension early on, huddling together to form an alliance, playing games with other Time Lifeforms, and occupying a massive territory and sphere of influence.

"Rest assured, the tianhe heart born this time will definitely be ours."

The human-headed, snake-bodied Time Lifeform said, "Those major forces have all obtained a tianhe heart before and will not intervene or stop us."

The tianhe heart was a treasure that could only be nurtured by the Heavenly River Dimension over countless years. Refining it allowed one to directly perceive the operation of the Origin rules of the Heavenly River Dimension.

Time Lifeforms were interested in various dimensional spaces for the purpose of the unique operation of Origin rules within them.

Although a Time Lifeform could slowly perceive the operation of Origin rules after entering a dimensional space, how could that compare to directly refining a tianhe heart?

"That will do."

Mo Xu Lord nodded.

With the tianhe heart, all seven of them as Time Lifeforms could more deeply perceive the operational essence of the Heavenly River Dimension, which would be of great help to their own accumulation.

A Time Lifeform had an endlessly long Lifespan; accumulating bit by bit, there would sooner or later be a day when they approached touching the realm of a Time Lord.

"In this way, when Milky Way steps into Thirteenth Order, we will also have a sufficiently weighty gift to present."

Mo Xu Lord looked at the remaining six Time Lifeforms and spoke.

The tianhe heart had a sufficiently great attraction for Time Lifeforms, far exceeding the value of the Ten-Thousand-Meter Nightmare Fruit.

Mo Xu Lord and the other six Time Lifeforms had played games with Time Lifeforms of other forces for long years before finally obtaining the opportunity to perhaps acquire the tianhe heart.

Lin Yuan continued to observe the time cycle regions in the deepest part of the Chaos Void for a while.

Then he withdrew this part of his mind, preparing to continue comprehending the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers.

"Third Source World."

Lin Yuan's mind stirred slightly; deep within the Gate of Myriad Realms were the coordinates of thirty-three Origin Worlds.

Currently, Lin Yuan had only explored the Second Source World, and there were still thirty-one Origin Worlds behind.

The reason he did not continue exploring was because the subsequent Origin Worlds posed a threat to Lin Yuan's life.

But now that Lin Yuan's strength was powerful enough, he could observe them first to prepare for how to explore after stepping into Thirteenth Order.

Thinking of this.

Lin Yuan immediately sank his mind deep into his mind and looked at the towering and magnificent Gate of Myriad Realms.
