Chapter 745: Tai Xu

When Lin Yuan passed the trial and broke through the time loop,

after his life essence transformed to the Thirteenth Order,

the projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms deep within his mind began to change, its aura becoming Void Gazer,

as if connecting to some supreme space-time.

Until now.

The projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms finally stabilized.

Wisps of obscure information surged out.

With a solemn expression, Lin Yuan's mind, which had sunk deep into his mind, looked at the still towering and magnificent Gate of Myriad Realms.

"It is still a projection rather than a physical entity?"

Lin Yuan observed carefully.

Even though he had now become a Thirteen Step Time Life,

the true main body of the Gate of Myriad Realms still had not descended.

What appeared deep within Lin Yuan's mind was still a projection.

However, compared to when he was at the Twelfth Order, the projection grew increasingly realistic.

It grew increasingly similar to that towering and magnificent light gate in the bizarre dream he experienced after sleeping deeply for two thousand years before breaking through to the Thirteenth Order.

"Even a Thirteen Step Time Life cannot bear the true Gate of Myriad Realms?"

Lin Yuan exclaimed inwardly, basically confirming without a doubt that the Gate of Myriad Realms belonged to the Fourteenth Order level.

You must know that Lin Yuan was not an ordinary Thirteen Step Time Life; in terms of the strength of his life essence, he even surpassed most Second Stage ones.

Under such circumstances, he still couldn't even bear the main body of the Gate of Myriad Realms.

The terrifying nature of the latter was already beyond doubt.

"A Fourteenth Order Perfect-level weapon or rare treasure?"

A hint of astonishment appeared on Lin Yuan's expression.

Up until now, Lin Yuan had never heard of a confirmed Perfect Time Life, nor any Fourteenth Order level treasures or rare items.

All information related to the Fourteenth Order came from the speculations of Thirteen Step Time Life.

Especially those Third Realm Time Lords who longed to break their own great destiny; one of the methods was to transform into a Perfect Time Life.

But did a Perfect Time Life actually exist?

It had not been verified in any way.

This was different from the messages Lin Yuan heard about Thirteen Step Time Life when he first entered the Twelfth Order.

In the Chaos Void, although Thirteen Step Time Life rarely appeared, they truly existed. Many special places and various Thirteen Step Legacy came from them.

They were all the work of Thirteen Step Time Life.

But what about a Fourteenth Order Perfect Time Life?

In each dimensional space, the only thing related to a Perfect Time Life was probably the Origin World. However, whether the perfect aura contained in the Origin World came from a Perfect Time Life remained unknown.

"At least through the Gate of Myriad Realms, I am certain that a Perfect Time Life truly exists."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Apart from a Perfect Time Life, Lin Yuan really didn't know who else could refine such a terrifying object as the Gate of Myriad Realms.

Although he hadn't witnessed the true main body of the Gate of Myriad Realms,

stepping into the Thirteenth Order and improving his life essence still unlocked more abilities of the Gate of Myriad Realms.

As Lin Yuan absorbed the many obscure auras surging out from within the Gate of Myriad Realms, his expression changed slightly.

First of all, the current Gate of Myriad Realms could not only travel to various Origin Worlds, but also travel to the past and future.

Shuttle across Origin Worlds belonged to space, while the past and future involved time.

"The past and future?"

Lin Yuan was secretly startled.

Time Lifeform could observe the timeline, but wanting to go to the truly real past? Only a Time Lord could do that.

But now? With the help of the Gate of Myriad Realms, Lin Yuan could also go to the past? Furthermore, according to the many obscure information pouring into his mind, Lin Yuan could also forcibly change the past,

and thereby influence the future.

Moreover, the backlash generated by changing the past to influence the future could also be greatly weakened through the Gate of Myriad Realms.

It could even be completely exempted by expending Boundary-Breaking Source Power.

Of course, forcibly changing the past to influence the future wasn't just a matter of backlash or no backlash.

As long as the past that Time Lords could change had little impact, they could also withstand the backlash.

However, this kind of behavior was very likely to attract the gaze of a truly Perfect Time Life.

If a Perfect Time Life could easily reverse the past and future, then all timeline experiences now were what the Perfect Time Life wanted.

They belonged to what the Perfect Time Life had planned out.

Forcibly changing them was equivalent to breaking the layout of the Perfect Time Life.

No Lord could afford to bear this kind of consequence.

However, perhaps changing a certain segment of the past was also part of the past and future formulated by the Perfect Time Life.

In short, no Time Lord dared to casually change the past.

"Traveling to the past and changing the past? With this method, I can kill any Time Lifeform below a Lord."

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

Even a Second Stage Peak Time Lifeform could not be born strong; there existed a time when they were weak.

Lin Yuan could completely travel to the weak time period of this Second Stage Peak Time Lifeform and directly kill them.

Then, influencing the future through the past, the Second Stage Peak Time Lifeform who died in the past would naturally not exist in the future.

"I can feel that the cost of killing a Second Stage Peak Time Lifeform through this method is much smaller than directly paying Boundary-Breaking Source Power."

Lin Yuan thought silently in his heart.

As for Third Realm Time Lords?

Time Lords began to bundle their own timeline, and any action against a Time Lord's Past Self would be perceived by the future Time Lord at the first moment, whereupon the Future Self would also return to the past to protect the Past Self.

This was also where Time Lords were truly powerful.

There were basically no flaws or shortcomings.

Wanting to kill a Time Lord could only rely on absolute strength.

But who could kill a Lord in terms of hard strength?

Therefore,

almost all the falls and deaths of Time Lords originated from themselves.

"The future."

With the help of the Gate of Myriad Realms, Lin Yuan looked at one future timeline after another.

At this moment, he could perceive that he could not only observe these timelines, but also travel through them via the Gate of Myriad Realms.

However, the future was uncertain, with infinite variables.

Who knows when a certain future timeline would suddenly collapse at a certain moment, causing all living beings to be completely annihilated.

Only the past timeline was the most stable, followed by the present timeline, and some future timelines could collapse at any time.

"Also, if I now shuttle and descend into the next Origin World, I can completely choose which carrier to descend into actively, rather than descending completely at random."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

This utility helped him immensely, allowing him to at least decide the 'start' of his descent.

So he wouldn't face some catastrophic starts and so on.

Even with the ability to observe the timeline, Lin Yuan could completely choose some carriers with special Physique and Bloodline to descend into,

to choose a higher starting point for himself.

Of course,

whether it was the previous random descent,

or the current active descent,

the object chosen by all carriers must be completely dead.

If they were still alive, Lin Yuan forcefully taking over and descending would trigger the other party's instinctive resistance,

thereby attracting the attention of the World Consciousness of the Origin World and so on.

Every Origin World, or rather dimensional space, extremely repelled foreign Time Lifeform.

In order to integrate into the Second Source World, the Lord of Heavenly Light did not know how much price was paid.

"Not bad, not bad."

Lin Yuan nodded.

His mind was joyful.

The two major 'functions' unlocked by the Gate of Myriad Realms were both extremely practical.

They could significantly help the current Lin Yuan.

"Let me take a look."

Following the Origin World coordinates deep within the Gate of Myriad Realms, Lin Yuan looked towards the Third Source World.

During this observation, the Gate of Myriad Realms did not sound an alarm; clearly, this Origin World could no longer truly threaten Lin Yuan who had stepped into the Thirteenth Order.

Hum~ Separating a wisp of his mind, following the Origin World coordinates deep within the Gate of Myriad Realms, he arrived outside a vast world.

On the surface, this vast world surpassed the previous two Origin Worlds. Most of its areas were shrouded in fog, and Lin Yuan vaguely sensed that there were three locked timelines within the world.

In other words, within this Origin World, there were estimated to be three Lord-level Time Lifeform.

Only Third Realm Lords could lock their own timeline and isolate all prying eyes.

Three Time Lords?

Lin Yuan's pupils slightly constricted.

He immediately determined that this Origin World was extraordinary.

Normally, within a complete great destruction cycle of a dimensional space, Third Realm Lords basically would not appear.

Because compared to the accumulation required by a Lord, the great destruction cycle of a dimensional space was simply too short.

But nothing was absolute.

For example, like the Heavenly River Dimension, which did not repel foreign Time Lifeform from entering a highly special dimensional space; if the value was huge, it might attract Third Realm Time Lords to stay.

In addition, according to the differences between the Origin Worlds Lin Yuan had been in contact with and normal top-tier dimensional spaces,

the former, due to the existence of the perfect aura, required a great destruction cycle time far exceeding that of top-tier dimensional spaces.

If an Origin World's great destruction cycle was long enough, equivalent to dozens or hundreds of great destruction cycles of normal top-tier dimensional spaces,

there was still hope for a Third Realm Lord to be born.

The Third Source World currently observed by Lin Yuan gave him the feeling that it surpassed the first two Origin Worlds.

This feeling came from the Origin World itself, rather than the three Lord-level Time Lifeform inside.

"Origin World"

Lin Yuan's expression was solemn.

After becoming a Time Lifeform, Lin Yuan's vision was naturally different from before,

clear about the uniqueness of this kind of dimension. There were still many top-tier dimensional spaces like the Chaos Void and Great Void Dimension.

But an Origin World?

Lin Yuan had never learned about this kind of world from the seven Time Lifeform of the Chaos Void.

Origin Worlds were too special.

It was precisely because the Lord of Heavenly Light perceived the uniqueness of the Second Source World that he was willing to wait outside until the great destruction of that Origin World, and then wait for its rebirth, paying a huge price to integrate into it.

The essential operation of every Origin World was very different from other top-tier dimensional spaces, which was also of great help to Third Realm Time Lords.

In fact, Third Realm Time Lords were not very interested in top-tier dimensional spaces.

Ordinary First Realm and Second Stage Thirteen Step Time Life desired to explore more dimensional spaces to enrich themselves.

But Time Lords? Their pursuits were different from ordinary Time Lifeform.

Lin Yuan attached great importance to the essential operation of the Origin World, as it was related to the transformation of his inner Universe.

Only by integrating into the essential operation of more Origin Worlds could his inner Universe approach perfection.

"Three Time Lords. No wonder that before stepping into the Thirteenth Order, if I wanted to explore, the Gate of Myriad Realms would issue a warning."

Lin Yuan's expression was pensive. If he were still at the Twelfth Order, no matter how strong he was and able to rival Thirteen Step Time Life,

facing a Time Lord still carried the risk of all his major true bodies being affected.

The methods of Time Lords could not be judged by conventional logic. Some Time Lords with special paths were even terrifyingly powerful.

However, to Lin Yuan, who had already become a Time Lifeform, these threats could no longer be considered true threats.

At most, he would lose the true body that descended into the Third Source World. As for the true bodies in the other major Origin Worlds, they would not be affected much.

Even for a Time Lord, it was very difficult to completely kill a Time Lifeform.

The simplest method was to kill the weak past of this Time Lifeform,

and thereby affect the present.

However, changing the past and changing the future destiny of a Time Lifeform

required bearing a massive backlash.

Unless there was truly some irreconcilable, immortal enmity,

otherwise a Time Lord would not pay such a price to purposely kill a Time Lifeform.

"The carrier for this descent—"

Lin Yuan looked distantly towards the distant vast world.

Becoming a Time Lifeform and unlocking the 'functions' of the Gate of Myriad Realms to return to the past, travel to the future, and actively choose the descent carrier—

besides these, many original abilities were also strengthened.

For example, observing the Origin World through coordinates in advance like this could originally only last for a short time.

But now?

As long as Lin Yuan did not actively annihilate this wisp of mind, it could be maintained indefinitely.

Ripples appeared in Lin Yuan's eyes, and for a moment, the timelines of all living beings within the distant Origin World all appeared within his field of vision.

The living beings chosen by Lin Yuan were all on the verge of complete death, meeting the conditions for his descent.

[At the age of 1,682, you died]

[Then you lived again]

[At the age of 2,372, you awakened a special Physique]

[At the age of 77, you died]

[Then you lived again]

[At the age of 3,200, you stepped into the Thirteenth Order and became a Thirteen Step Time Life]

[At two hundred and forty-six years old, you died.]

[Then you lived again.]

[Rising from death, the power deep within your Bloodline was stimulated.]

Countless future timelines fell into Lin Yuan's eyes.

All future timelines involved being reborn after experiencing death.

The rebirth here was the result of Lin Yuan taking over and descending.

If Lin Yuan did not choose to descend, then dying meant truly dying, and a future where you "lived again" would not appear.

It was precisely by observing future timelines in this manner that Lin Yuan judged the potential of every eligible vessel, and then chose one of them to descend into.

"Which one should I choose?"

In dozens of breaths, Lin Yuan observed tens of thousands of timelines, selecting dozens of vessels relatively suitable for himself.

These dozens of vessels either had a special Bloodline and Physique, which could provide benefits for Lin Yuan's ninth Physical Body Divine Ability.

Or they had noble statuses, allowing Lin Yuan not to worry about early-stage Cultivate resources.

"Wait and see a bit longer."

Lin Yuan did not make a choice immediately. The Third Source World was vast and endless, with a large number of living beings dying at every moment. Among these dead living beings, there was no shortage of vessels that better matched Lin Yuan's conditions.

None of the dozens of vessels Lin Yuan had currently selected satisfied him exceptionally.

A majestic Heavenly River swept across space-time and all Universes, surging endlessly as if there was no end.

Hidden in various locations of the Heavenly River were the auras of Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform. This Heavenly River was a dimensional space.

That was the Heavenly River Dimension.

The nine Time Lifeform of the Great Void Dimension stood at a certain place in the Heavenly River Dimension, distantly confronting the seven Time Lifeform of the Chaos Void.

"That Mo Xu Lord is a huge trouble; he has no shortcomings in any aspect and can be considered powerful even within the First Realm, having found his own path to becoming a Time Lord."

The Tai Xu Master slightly frowned.

He was the first Time Lifeform born in the Great Void Dimension and also the most powerful Time Lifeform, yet facing Mo Xu Lord, he still felt it tricky.

Although ever since the confrontation between the two dimensional spaces, he and Mo Xu Lord had never made a move against each other.

But not making a move did not mean not understanding. The Tai Xu Master had already observed many future timelines of fighting against "Mo Xu Lord," and did not have the confidence to steadily suppress the other party.

Even in over sixty percent of the future timelines, he was at a disadvantage and could not defeat that "Mo Xu Lord."

If it weren't for the fact that the Great Void Dimension had two more Time Lifeform than the Chaos Void.

This time competing for the upcoming tianhe heart, the Great Void Dimension would probably end in failure.

"What should we do now?"

The other Time Lifeform of the Great Void Dimension looked at the Tai Xu Master.

Continuing to stalemate like this was no solution either. Ultimately, for the Great Void Dimension and the Chaos Void, it would probably result in both sides suffering heavy losses.

Time Lifeform weighed pros and cons extremely carefully. If in the end no one could gain benefits, it would be better to reduce losses as much as possible.

"Contact that person."

The Tai Xu Master said in a low voice.

The superficial reason why the Great Void Dimension and the Chaos Void competed for that tianhe heart was because one of their own Time Lifeform had hidden dangers in their Cultivate, requiring a complete tianhe heart to cleanse the Physique and eliminate the hidden dangers.

But this reason was merely deliberately displayed by the Great Void Dimension.

In reality, the Great Void Dimension did not have much interest in that tianhe heart.

The reason for competing for that tianhe heart was entirely due to a transaction with a Second Stage Time Lifeform.

Not long ago, a Second Stage Time Lifeform approached the Time Lifeform of the Great Void Dimension, willing to pay a certain price in exchange for the Great Void Dimension competing for the tianhe heart.

The Tai Xu Master could not refuse this price, which was why he agreed.

After a moment.

Outside the Great Void Dimension.

The nine Time Lifeform including the Tai Xu Master saw that Second Stage Time Lifeform.

This Second Stage Time Lifeform wore grey robes and seemed like nothingness, quietly watching the nine Time Lifeform of the Great Void Dimension.

He was named "Grey Ancestor," not a Time Lifeform of this dimensional gap, but coming from a distant other region.

After leaving their hometown dimensional space, Time Lifeform would all choose to roam the vast dimensional gap, attempting to explore various other dimensional spaces one by one.

"Grey Ancestor" was just like this. Long years of exploration finally allowed him to comprehend his own Origin Dao, becoming a Second Stage Time Lifeform.

Only when passing near the Heavenly River Dimension, "Grey Ancestor" occasionally looked towards the Heavenly River Dimension, discovering that the tianhe heart recently condensed by the Heavenly River Dimension was extremely extraordinary, and in the distant future, it would transform into one of the raw Materials for a Lord-grade weapon.

Every long period of time, the Heavenly River Dimension would condense a tianhe heart. The previous tianhe hearts were relatively ordinary; only this condensed tianhe heart had the potential to become a raw material for a Lord-grade weapon.

Of course, to discover this point, one had to deeply observe future timelines. As a Second Stage Time Lifeform, "Grey Ancestor's" observation of the timeline far exceeded that of a First Realm Time Lifeform.

That was why he discovered in advance the special nature of the tianhe heart currently condensing recently.

"What is the matter?"

"Grey Ancestor" said in a calm tone.

The reason why he didn't personally make a move to snatch that tianhe heart, but instead drove the Time Lifeform of the Heavenly River Dimension to come forward.

Was because this was the timeline with the highest hope of successfully obtaining that tianhe heart among the future timelines seen by "Grey Ancestor."

What if "Grey Ancestor" personally made a move? A Second Stage Time Lifeform descending to snatch the tianhe heart would most likely arouse the hostility of all resident Time Lifeform within the Heavenly River Dimension.

Thus creating a situation of joint resistance against this Second Stage Time Lifeform.

Furthermore, a treasure like the tianhe heart logically speaking could not attract a Second Stage Time Lifeform.

If "Grey Ancestor" forcibly made a move to compete, it would cause the numerous Time Lifeform within the Heavenly River Dimension to re-evaluate the value of this tianhe heart.

"Grey Ancestor" could discover the special nature of this tianhe heart in advance, firstly because his observation of the timeline reached further, and secondly because other First Realm Time Lifeform did not spend too much energy and cost to observe the newly born tianhe heart.

After all, there were already quite a few tianhe hearts previously condensed by the Heavenly River Dimension, and no special features had appeared.

But if "Grey Ancestor" made a move, the situation would be different. How acute were Time Lifeform? They would immediately deduce many reasons and then conduct deep timeline observations.

Once the true value of the recently condensed tianhe heart was revealed, the Second Stage Time Lifeform attracted would not be just him, Grey Ancestor.

It was precisely because of the above reasons.

No matter how much Grey Ancestor yearned for that tianhe heart.

He absolutely could not act himself, and even his own traces and marks could not be leaked.

When a Second Stage Time Lifeform fully concealed themselves, it was very difficult for First Realm Time Lifeform to discover anything in future timelines.

They would only feel that future timelines became blurred and distorted, and many results were not very certain.

But this was also normal; future timelines involving Time Lifeform were all like this.

"We can do nothing about those seven Time Lifeform of the Chaos Void."

The Tai Xu Master looked at "Grey Ancestor" and said directly.

"Nothing can be done?"

Grey Ancestor frowned and did not say much more.

He had also observed future timelines many times and was clear about the trickiness of that "Mo Xu Lord" from the Chaos Void.

But if saying the Tai Xu Master truly could do nothing, that would be being overly modest.

It was nothing more than being unwilling to pay too much cost.

If the nine Time Lifeform of the Great Void Dimension truly fought desperately with the seven Time Lifeform of the Chaos Void.

The latter would most likely voluntarily make concessions, having no need to perish together with the Great Void Dimension for a tianhe heart.

"This is a treasure I traded from a certain Lord's territory."

Grey Ancestor raised his hand, and a palm-sized axe floated before him.

This axe looked extremely compact, but the aura vaguely emitted from it made ordinary First Realm Time Lifeform frightened.

"This treasure?"

The Tai Xu Master's eyes were solemn.

He could feel the terrifying nature of this axe. Although it could only be activated a few times, it was completely expected to severely injure a First Realm Time Lifeform.

"I have already covered this item with the power of time. Ordinary First Realm Thirteenth Order cannot observe it in future timelines. You just need to activate it at a critical moment."

Grey Ancestor's words were brief.

In order to obtain that tianhe heart with Lord-grade potential, the price he had paid was already quite a lot.

"This is only natural."

A smile appeared on the Tai Xu Master's face.

This was the terrifying aspect of Time Lifeform who had experienced long years.

It was not just an improvement in strength, but more importantly, having roamed many places, the trump cards and backup plans obtained would also become more numerous.

"I hope you won't let me down."

Grey Ancestor took a last look at the Tai Xu Master, and his figure disappeared.

Examining the palm-sized axe before him.

The Tai Xu Master's expression fell into thought.

Clearly, "Grey Ancestor" yearned for that tianhe heart so much.

The latter definitely had special features, different from the tianhe hearts condensed in the past.

But the Tai Xu Master did not care about these; he only cared about the conditions "Grey Ancestor" offered him.

"Mo Xu Lord"

The Tai Xu Master sneered.

With this palm-sized axe in hand, when fighting against that Mo Xu Lord, caught off guard, there was a complete hope of severely injuring the opponent.

As long as Mo Xu Lord was severely injured, the other few Time Lifeform were nothing to fear.

At that time, upon completing the transaction with "Grey Ancestor," he could also obtain the treasure he wanted.

Chaos Void.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, dividing a portion of his mind to select a suitable vessel object for descent in the Third Source World.

The remaining mind continued to observe his own future timelines.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yuan simultaneously delved into hundreds of future timelines to observe, immediately discovering the scene of the Heavenly River Dimension where the seven Time Lifeform of the Chaos Void were located.

"Heavenly River Dimension? tianhe heart?"

Lin Yuan observed carefully. Compared to the future timelines observed by First Realm Time Lifeform like Mo Xu Lord.

The future timelines Lin Yuan was watching were much clearer. With the blessing of Lords Authority, much obscure information could not hide from him.

"This is?"

Lin Yuan saw within a certain future timeline, the Tai Xu Master was fighting fiercely with Mo Xu Lord. Finally, the Tai Xu Master raised his right hand, and a palm-sized axe appeared, slashing towards Mo Xu Lord.

This slash severely injured Mo Xu Lord, and the other few Time Lifeform had no choice but to route and flee in defeat.

The Time Lifeform of the Chaos Void faction suffered heavy losses, encountering encirclement and slaughter by the Time Lifeform of the Great Void Dimension. In the end, one Time Lifeform's main combat Physical Body was completely left behind.

"This axe?"

Lin Yuan watched the palm-sized axe finally used by the Tai Xu Master.

The timeline expanded, and Lin Yuan quickly saw the existence of "Grey Ancestor," as well as the purpose of "Grey Ancestor" doing this, and the true value of the recently condensed tianhe heart.

"A tianhe heart expected to become a Lord-grade material?"

Lin Yuan's expression pondered, and then he immediately called Mo Xu Lord and the other six Time Lifeform over.

"Galaxy."

"Galaxy."

After a moment, Mo Xu Lord and other Time Lifeform descended with their Incarnation respectively, appearing before Lin Yuan.

"Over at the Heavenly River Dimension."

Lin Yuan looked at the various Time Lifeform without beating around the bush, "You cannot handle it."

With a Second Stage Time Lifeform like "Grey Ancestor" laying out schemes and planning, the Time Lifeform on the Chaos Void side would face the outcome of heavy losses if they were slightly careless.

"Cannot handle it?"

Mo Xu Lord was startled inwardly.

He also cared very much about the Heavenly River Dimension, constantly observing future timelines.

But he had not discovered a situation that he could not handle.

"Correct."

Lin Yuan nodded, "With a Second Stage Time Lifeform pushing things behind the scenes, it is very normal that you couldn't discover it."
