Chapter 795: Above Transcendence (Grand Finale)

Mo Xu Lord, Luo Hou, and the other Time Lifeforms listened obediently, waves of emotion rising in their hearts after receiving the answer.

On the way?

Meaning Lin Yuan hasn't transcended yet?

So powerful, yet not transcended?

Mo Xu Lord, Luo Hou, and the other Time Lifeforms were filled with a myriad of thoughts.

“Next, I will enter secluded cultivation and will not appear again for a very long time,” Lin Yuan said.

By now, he had basically given up on the path of transcendence through the 'Infinite Tribulation', because it was simply impossible to transcend.

He prepared to focus all his mind and energy on the endless White Jade Stairway. At least up until now, Lin Yuan still felt an immense sense of pressure while climbing the White Jade Stairway.

The brand-new Dao born from the Fusion of the five Chaos Origin Daos was still far from being able to shake the endless White Jade Stairway itself.

Mo Xu Lord, Luo Hou, and the other Time Lifeforms nodded.

Secluded cultivation was completely normal for Time Lifeforms.

Furthermore, after today, the name of the Milky Way Lord would pierce through the past, present, and future, and no lord would dare to provoke them.

“The Chaos Void. I will make it leap out of the timeline so that it cannot be observed by any existence.” With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, the entire Chaos Void began to rumble.

In fact, even before comprehending the Primal Chaos Origin Supreme Simplicity Great Dao, Lin Yuan was already able to make the Chaos Void break away from the timeline, but it was still somewhat incomplete.

But now, even the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will would find it extremely difficult to lock onto the specific coordinates of the Chaos Void.

Under the watchful eyes of Mo Xu Lord, Luo Hou, and the other Time Lifeforms, Lin Yuan's figure vanished silently.

“To think that Milky Way hasn't transcended yet?”

Mo Xu Lord composed himself, his tone filled with emotion.

“To us, and to other Time Lifeforms and Time Lords, whether Milky Way has transcended or not makes little difference,”

Zhu Yin said.

The other Time Lifeforms nodded in agreement. Lin Yuan was too powerful, so powerful that he could easily wipe out all the Legendary Lords of all eras single-handedly.

If this wasn't transcendence, what was?

On the endless White Jade Stairway,

Lin Yuan continued to climb unhurriedly.

“This White Jade Stairway…”

Lin Yuan marveled in his heart. Even with his current strength, as he climbed the White Jade Stairway, he could still feel the brand-new Dao born from the Fusion of the five Chaos Origin Daos continuously transforming.

“Transcendence.”

A strange look flickered in Lin Yuan's eyes.

Not only had he not transcended yet,

but he was actually very, very far from transcendence, so far that he could not see the end.

“The gap between the Thirteenth Order and the Fourteenth Order is simply too vast.”

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

If the Fourteenth Order was equivalent to transcendence, then it was basically impossible for a Thirteenth Order to Breakthrough to the Fourteenth Order; the gap in between was just too massive.

This was also why no lord had ever reached the end of the path of transcendence for the Perfect Time Life. Everyone said that whether one could reach the end of this path depended on fate and one's own path.

Actually, this was not entirely accurate. At least from Lin Yuan's current height and vision, he could tell at a glance that the real reason why no lord had successfully transformed into a Perfect Time Life was because the gap was too wide.

A Twelfth Order could Breakthrough to the Thirteenth Order because their Foundation was already there.

But if a First Order wanted to leap directly into the Thirteenth Order, the only outcome would be getting blown apart by the energy.

And the leap from the Thirteenth Order to the Fourteenth Order was far more exaggerated than a First Order leaping directly to the Thirteenth Order.

Of course, saying that one's own path decided whether one could become a Fourteenth Order Perfect Time Life was not entirely wrong either.

If the potential of one's own path was great enough to easily withstand the chasm-like gap, then one could naturally and smoothly transform into a Perfect Time Life.

But so far, no such path had ever appeared.

Even a path needed to grow. When Lin Yuan first comprehended Taiji at the Second Order, he could never have anticipated that Taiji would eventually transform into the current Chaos Congenital Five Tai Great Dao.

As his thoughts drifted, Lin Yuan did not slow down his pace of climbing the White Jade Stairway.

With each step he climbed, Lin Yuan's own Origin Dao became a bit more perfected, and his strength rose by another fraction, seemingly as endless as the White Jade Stairway itself.

And as he continued to climb upward, the surrounding time and space gradually changed. Vaguely, it began to break away from the scope of the endless dimensions, as if the end of the White Jade Stairway was not within the endless dimensions, but at some eternal, supreme height.

“The current White Jade Stairway…”

While climbing, Lin Yuan also noticed the changes in the White Jade Stairway.

The higher he went, the more profound and distant the White Jade Stairway became, almost like…

the 'Gate of Myriad Realms' deep in Lin Yuan's mind.

The two had distinct differences, but they shared some similarities in certain aspects.

“The White Jade Stairway is related to the Gate of Myriad Realms.”

Lin Yuan directed a portion of his consciousness deep into his mind, looking at the grand and majestic Gate of Myriad Realms.

Even now, the Gate of Myriad Realms deep in Lin Yuan's mind was still not the true body, but merely a projected phantom.

In fact, when the path of transcendence of the endless White Jade Stairway first appeared, Lin Yuan had suspected that it had some connection with the Gate of Myriad Realms.

After all, before breaking through to a Time Lifeform, he had had those bizarre dreams. In the very last dream, he had climbed an endless White Jade Stairway to reach a supreme height, where there was an infinitely tall gate of light and a man with closed eyes leaning against it.

“Regardless of whether there is a connection, I will know once I reach the end.”

Lin Yuan reined in his thoughts and continued to climb.

Time passed rapidly.

Ten thousand years.

One hundred thousand years.

One million years.

Five million years.

Lin Yuan was still climbing the endless White Jade Stairway.

“Hmm?”

At a certain moment, Lin Yuan's heart stirred slightly.

A call, a summon from the past time and space, faintly established a connection with him.

Lin Yuan paused slightly, his right foot hovering just as he was about to step onto the next stair.

“Is it that time?”

Lin Yuan realized that the one contacting him now was indeed his Past Self from several million years ago, who had been exploring the Myriad Dimensions Time-Space and ended up being cornered by the Blood Sea Lord.

Whoosh!

Lin Yuan gently waved his sleeve.

An invisible Qi wave crossed through time and space, surging against the timeline toward the past.

Immediately after, the past and future of the Blood Sea Lord completely collapsed and was annihilated.

Having done all this, Lin Yuan resumed his climb, stepping up the stairs one by one.

The pressure from the Blood Sea Lord's coercion had been unimaginably immense for the Lin Yuan of that time.

After all, that was a Legendary Lord.

But for the current him?

Even five million years ago, an ant like the Blood Sea Lord wouldn't have even had the right to appear before Lin Yuan.

Let alone now.

After five million years of climbing, Lin Yuan's strength was thousands, even tens of thousands of times greater than it was five million years ago.

“Still unable to transcend.”

Lin Yuan thought silently to himself. Now, he felt that he could even directly clash with the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will.

In other words, even if the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will were to act personally, it would be impossible to erase him.

“Let's keep climbing.”

Lin Yuan did not think further. Pausing for just a brief moment, he stepped onto the next stair once more.

Time began to flow rapidly once again.

Ten million years.

One hundred million years.

Tens of billions of years.

One Great Destruction cycle.

Ten Great Destruction cycles.

A hundred Great Destruction cycles.

This was the highest point in terms of space, and the original source in terms of time.

A grand and majestic gate of light stood tall there. The existence of this gate silently influenced every timeline, every dimensional space, every dimensional world, and every living being.

And at the threshold of the gate of light, a blurry figure was leaning.

The blurry figure's face could not be seen clearly. Its eyes were faintly closed, as if it had fallen asleep.

Though He appeared to be leaning beneath that incredibly majestic and grand gate of light, the aura He faintly emitted actually transcended the gate of light itself. The fluctuations of His gentle breathing swept across countless timelines, and the universe, all creation, and the endless dimensions were born within His breath.

Whoosh~ The blurry figure leaning against the gate of light stirred, and His eyes slowly opened.

At this moment, the figure was no longer blurry; everything became clear. His appearance was identical to Lin Yuan's, yet He was far too powerful and far too profound. A single wisp of aura casually emitted by Him far surpassed the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will.

“This Reincarnation actually ended so quickly?”

Lin Yuan stood up. Standing beneath the grand gate of light of the endless dimensions, he looked down.

He saw an endless White Jade Stairway leading to this place, while its starting end lay within the endless dimensions.

Lin Yuan's gaze swept across the endless dimensions, not only on a spatial level but also taking in the temporal level. From the creation of the endless dimensions until now, everything that had transpired appeared clearly before Lin Yuan, with nothing hidden or concealed.

“This is the 33,333rd Reincarnation. The previous 33,332 Reincarnations only ended after going through an entire Reincarnation era. Ending so much earlier this time… it seems my accumulations must be full.”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

The endless dimensions were created by Lin Yuan himself. As for their purpose? They were used to retread different paths, enhancing and accumulating his own Foundation to step into a higher level.

Normally, the time spent in a single Reincarnation would not exceed the time from the birth of the endless dimensions to their destruction.

In past Reincarnations, Lin Yuan had always awakened only after experiencing a complete Reincarnation era, and all the experiences and paths walked during that Reincarnation era would completely transform into his accumulated Foundation.

But now, it had only taken several hundred Great Destruction cycles?

Several hundred Great Destruction cycles, compared to a complete Reincarnation era, was nothing more than a brief nap.

“In every Reincarnation, I would discard all my methods, and even my memories would be sealed, with only a projection of the 'Gate of Myriad Realms' accompanying me. Yet, to increase the sense of pressure, the projection of the Gate of Myriad Realms possessed no means of combat, as all true offensive capabilities were stripped away by me.”

A look of sighing emotion appeared on Lin Yuan's face. The Gate of Myriad Realms was his lifebound weapon, and the greatest use of its projection was to carry Lin Yuan's reincarnated body through various dimensional spaces. Of course, the most important part was experiencing those thirty-three Origin Worlds.

These thirty-three Origin Worlds were far from being as simple as they appeared on the surface; they were prepared by Lin Yuan for his reincarnated body at the cost of immense effort.

In the past 33,332 Reincarnations, Lin Yuan had not yet fully comprehended the mysteries of the thirty-three Origin Worlds. However, in this 33,333rd Reincarnation, he had ended the Reincarnation after exploring only a dozen or so Origin Worlds, which meant he had already completely comprehended the essence of all thirty-three Origin Worlds.

It was just like a wooden bucket; before it was full, the water pouring in would not overflow.

Only after it was full would water spill out.

Lin Yuan's Reincarnation ending so quickly this time meant his accumulation was already full, and there was no need to continue reincarnating.

“Chaotic Origin Taiji Grand Dao? Congenital Five Tai? The Fusion Dao of the Chaos Congenital Five Tai?” Feeling the harvest of this Reincarnation, a smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face. “No wonder it ended so quickly. The path I comprehended has completely supplemented the path I walk.”

“The endless dimensions.”

Lin Yuan's gaze swept across every corner of the endless dimensions. Across the 33,333 Reincarnations, the events experienced in each Reincarnation were generally the same.

For example, in many of the previous Reincarnations, when Lin Yuan reached the end, he would similarly encounter the obstruction of the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will, which would summon numerous terrifying existences from the past and future to deal with him.

In those Reincarnations, Lin Yuan was basically unable to withstand it and could only abandon his race, hometown, relatives, and friends, turning all the anger and unwillingness in his heart into the motivation to Cultivate.

This was also something Lin Yuan had done intentionally.

The path of cultivation could not be smooth sailing; there had to be pressure and oppression from external forces.

Therefore, Lin Yuan's early reincarnated bodies lived extremely miserable lives, often with their parents killed by enemies in their early years, their hometown's resources plundered, and themselves being hunted down, among other hardships.

There were far too many such instances.

It was precisely under these pressures that Lin Yuan was able to forge a more perfect path.

As for this Reincarnation, with the Foundation formed by the previous 33,332 Reincarnations, even if Lin Yuan tried his best to weaken himself, it was hard to do so because his cultivation speed was too fast. Often, before the enemies could even make a move, Lin Yuan was already far above them.

For example, in the Origin World where the Six Ancient Kingdoms were located, Lin Yuan was originally meant to stand on the opposite side of the Six Ancestors and be hunted down by these six Time Lifeforms.

But Lin Yuan's growth speed was too fast, causing the Ancestors to be terrified by the future timeline, leading them to directly choose to curry favor and draw closer to him at all costs.

Across the 33,333 Reincarnations, the events that occurred were roughly similar, though there were still minor differences in the details.

For instance, regarding the number of Reincarnations, in the 33,333rd Reincarnation, the essence of the endless dimensions was related to the number 33,333.

While in the 11,111th Reincarnation, the essence of the endless dimensions was related to 11,111.

The entire endless dimensions were opened by Lin Yuan personally, and the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will was also just a strand of 'spirit' he had casually refined to maintain the operation of the endless dimensions.

As for the path of transcendence of the 'Infinite Tribulation'? Those Legendary Lords believed that they could transcend by surviving all tribulations, but in reality, that was not the case. Even if one truly finished the path of 'Infinite Tribulation', all they would obtain was a single promise from the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will.

They could have the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will take action to help them do one thing.

In previous Reincarnation eras, when Lin Yuan's reincarnated bodies grew slowly, there were indeed enemies who finished this path of 'Infinite Tribulation' and made a request to the Supreme Rule Great Dao Will—to erase Lin Yuan's existence.

The Supreme Rule Great Dao Will taking action personally was an unprecedented desperate situation for Lin Yuan. In the end, he had to exhaust all of his Boundary-Breaking Source Power just to barely survive.

It was just that in the 33,333rd Reincarnation, Lin Yuan's growth speed gave his enemies absolutely no such opportunity.

And the path of transcendence of the 'Infinite Origin'? In truth, one could not transcend through it either, because the so-called source of time was precisely the place where Lin Yuan's true body slept. No living being in the endless dimensions could ever approach this place; even if they did, they would be immediately erased.

The final span from the Thirteenth Order Perfect Time Life to transcendence was simply too vast. Back then, Lin Yuan did not know how many tribulations he had to experience before becoming a Transcended Being, all the way to his current Peak as a Transcended Being.

To want another Transcended Being to be born in a mere single Reincarnation era? There was absolutely no possibility.

“In this Reincarnation era, my growth has been far too smooth.”

Lin Yuan reflected for a moment and shook his head slightly. Compared to his numerous previous reincarnated bodies, he had barely encountered any decent hardships or tribulations, and his family and friends were all still there.

The reason for this was that his growth speed was too fast, so fast that it gave the pre-arranged hardships and tribulations absolutely no condition to arise.

“My accumulation is perfect; I can make a Breakthrough.”

Lin Yuan's gaze gradually grew solemn. Before starting the 33,333rd Reincarnation era, he had already been at the Peak of a Transcended Being.

And having experienced so many Reincarnations, with each Reincarnation walking a different path, his accumulated Foundation had reached Perfection, making his Breakthrough a gradual and natural progression.

“Above transcendence? Up until now, no Transcended Being has ever touched it.”

Lin Yuan felt his own transformation. In fact, after awakening and reaching perfect accumulation, he had already begun to transform naturally.

Outside of the endless dimensions was the vast world where Lin Yuan resided, where Transcended Beings were also supreme existences, numbering very few.

Buzz, buzz, buzz~ As the transformation continuously progressed, Lin Yuan's mind rapidly soared, breaking free from all restrictions, and finally came into contact with a brand-new Domain.

“Above transcendence… lies reality, absolute reality.”

After breaking free from all restrictions and shackles, a Real Domain even more incredible than the vast world he resided in appeared within his perception.

“Reality.”

Lin Yuan's eyes shone with spirit.

Immediately after, with a flip of his right hand, he tore open the vast world and leaped into the Real Domain.

(The End)
