...
North Sea Island.
The tenth-realm strongmen were leisurely chatting, occasionally glancing at the distance, where the 'North Sea Eye' had shrunk to the size of a hundred meters.
For over a hundred years, they had lived comfortably and awe-struck.
Comfort came from no longer needing to guard the North Sea Eye, no longer facing the deep, abyss-like gaze of the North Sea Eye.
Watching the North Sea Eye shrink day by day was also a kind of spiritual pleasure.
As for awe, it all came from one person.
That person, with his own strength, surpassed this group of tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years of accumulated accomplishments, the 'Mysterious Great One.'
For over a hundred years, the mysterious figure had been sitting above the North Sea Eye. The Great One's two major primordial spirits had reached a height of a million zhang each, standing at either end of the North Sea Eye.
"Let me tell you, back then, I almost personally greeted the Great One. If it wasn't for the Island Master and the Vice-Island Masters stealing the limelight, I should have been the first to speak to the Great One."
A chubby man said proudly, conveniently omitting the fact that his initial thought was to remind Lin Yuan to keep a low profile on North Sea Island.
"I wonder what the origin of this Great One is, how such a powerful being was born."
A thin tenth-realm couldn't help muttering.
Shallow waters can't raise true dragons, this was common knowledge among cultivators, but compared to them, the mysterious figure who completely sealed the North Sea Eye was more than just a 'true dragon' to them.
Not to mention the Great One himself, even just the two million zhang primordial spirits split off from him were enough to make their minds tremble.
"All right, the Island Master and the Vice-Island Masters have already said not to discuss the Great One privately, and violators will be punished."
At this point, a stern-faced tenth-realm said quietly.
"I'm just talking, not saying anything bad about the Great One." The thin tenth-realm immediately shook his head.
"Besides, if the Island Master and the Vice-Island Masters forbid us from discussing, do you think they don't mention that mysterious figure in private?"
The thin tenth-realm couldn't help but say.
"Since the Island Master and the Vice-Island Masters forbid us from discussing, they themselves will certainly comply." The stern-faced tenth-realm said solemnly.
"How strong do you think the Great One's strength is? Fourteenth realm? Or fifteenth realm?"
In the North Sea's A-ranked cave mansion, the Island Master, along with several Vice-Island Masters, also looked towards the direction of the North Sea Eye.
One of the Vice-Island Masters couldn't help but exclaim.
The higher the strength level, the more they could feel Lin Yuan's terrifying aspects, the terrifying power that far surpassed the limits of this world, making them unable to even think of resisting.
"I'm not sure. But I feel that the Great One should have transcended the level divisions long ago. The level at which the Great One exists is beyond our description and explanation."
Another Vice-Island Master said in a low voice.
"No wonder 'Heavenly Dao' prompted us to follow the Great One's orders." The third Vice-Island Master said thoughtfully.
The Island Master calmly looked towards the distant North Sea Eye.
For over a hundred years, he had spent most of his time like this, watching the North Sea Eye disappear bit by bit, and his worries gradually faded away.
"After our generation, the future generations of descendants will no longer face the threat of the North Sea Eye."
The Island Master's reverence for Lin Yuan grew stronger by the day, almost to the point of worship.
"But."
The Island Master had always had a doubt.
Clearly, the North Sea Eye had been completely sealed, so why was the celestial qi still continuously converging towards the North Sea?
Above the North Sea Eye.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
Since the North Sea Eye had shrunk to ten thousand miles in size.
He had withdrawn his Yin and Yang primordial spirits into his body because at this scale of the North Sea Eye, he alone was enough to suppress it.
"It's so comfortable."
Lin Yuan's expression was quite pleased.
He didn't completely suppress the North Sea Eye, but left a little gap for it to continue swallowing the vast celestial qi of this world, which brought him immense benefits for cultivation.
In other words, for the past one hundred and twenty years, the North Sea Eye had been working for Lin Yuan. Not only did it gain no benefits, but it also continued to shrink.
"Eighteenth realm."
Lin Yuan breathed out lightly, and at this moment, he had already reached the eighteenth realm.
Of course, the eighteenth realm was the terminology of this world. According to the Human Civilization Alliance of the main world, it was the fifth rank and twelfth stage.
"It's a pity."
"To reach the sixth rank, it's not something that can be solved with celestial qi."
Lin Yuan silently thought to himself.
In the main world, the leap from the fifth rank to the sixth rank was even more difficult than from the first rank to the fifth rank.
The fifth rank was the Land-Sinking level, while the sixth rank was the Star-Falling level. The existence of the two represented a qualitative change, and to cross over, one had to rely solely on the evolver themselves.
For an ordinary evolver, even with complete evolutionary guidance, it was incredibly difficult, let alone Lin Yuan, the founder of the martial path of evolution?
Although Lin Yuan had many evolutionary paths to refer to, including surpassing the sixth rank, and even the extremely mysterious yellow evolutionary path.
But reference and creation were two different things.
"It's almost time."
Lin Yuan glanced at the North Sea Eye below him.
In fact, thirty or forty years ago, Lin Yuan had the ability to completely seal the North Sea Eye. However, in order to continue enjoying the vast celestial qi swallowed by the North Sea Eye, Lin Yuan had forcibly delayed until now.
The world consciousness of this world seemed to have noticed it.
But there was nothing it could do.
The world consciousness still relied on Lin Yuan to solve the North Sea Eye, and it wasn't possible to have a falling out at this time.
But now.
Lin Yuan had reached the fifth rank and twelfth stage, and with the time limit of his stay, only ten more years, there was no need to waste time here.
"Suppress."
With this thought, Lin Yuan looked down at the hundred-meter square North Sea Eye.
Boom!
Under the terrifying suppression, it poured down once again.
The North Sea Eye, which was a hundred meters in size, immediately began to shrink again.
Ninety meters.
Eighty meters.
Seventy meters.
Just as the North Sea Eye shrank to ten meters.
A terrifying consciousness pierced through the North Sea Eye and came to Lin Yuan's ear.
"Stop."
The terrifying consciousness emitted a mental fluctuation, and Lin Yuan instinctively understood its meaning.
"Stop?"
Lin Yuan smiled faintly, paying little attention.
Over the years, he had already speculated that behind the North Sea Eye, there stood a powerful entity.
Because when he carefully observed the North Sea Eye, relying on his Unrivaled Insight, he occasionally glimpsed some 'devouring-type' secret techniques.
Of course, these devouring-type secret techniques were nothing compared to the 'Heavenly Devouring' evolutionary path, but it was evident that they belonged to some powerful entity's unique skills.
Lin Yuan originally thought that the entity behind the North Sea Eye would remain silent until it was completely sealed.
But he didn't expect the other party to eventually become impatient.
"As long as you stop."
"We can negotiate."
The terrifying consciousness sounded somewhat urgent.
"We can make a deal."
The terrifying consciousness continued to emit mental fluctuations.
"I'm not interested in making deals."
Lin Yuan did not stop, continuing to suppress. The North Sea Eye continued to shrink.
To be precise, Lin Yuan wasn't interested in making deals with entities that had such a vast gap in strength.
The entity behind the North Sea Eye was at least beyond the sixth rank, and making deals with beings of this level was akin to courting danger.
Perhaps one would end up in the other party's hands sooner or later.
Lin Yuan made deals with the world consciousness of this world because the world consciousness was not a living being and had no personal emotions.
Moreover, Lin Yuan had means to counteract the world consciousness, even to the extent of destroying this world, in which case nobody would benefit.
But dealing with the entity behind the North Sea Eye? Lin Yuan believed he had no means to restrain the other party.
Instead of worrying, it was better to simply avoid contact.
Boom!
The North Sea Eye continued to shrink.
Five meters.
Three meters.
One meter.
Finally.
Several days later.
The North Sea Eye turned into a tiny dot finer than a hair.
With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, the dot fell into his hand.
At this size, the North Sea Eye posed no threat at all.
It couldn't even absorb the celestial qi of the world anymore.
Whoosh.
Lin Yuan disappeared.
Appearing in the sky above North Sea Island.
At this moment, Nalan Island Master and five Vice-Island Masters, along with many tenth-realm experts, had long been waiting in place.
When the North Sea Eye continued to shrink to ten meters, Nalan Island Master and the others realized that the greatest threat looming over countless strong beings in this world might soon become a thing of the past.
So they had early led everyone here to wait.
After all, once the North Sea Eye was completely resolved, the mysterious figure would naturally appear.
"You have lived here for thousands of years."
Lin Yuan looked at Nalan Island Master and the other strong beings.
The thousands of years here referred not to a generation but to generations.
Since hundreds of thousands of years ago, when the North Sea Eye appeared, under the hint of the world consciousness, one powerful being after another came here.
For hundreds of thousands of years, even Nalan Island Master was the descendant of the strong beings of the previous generations.
"However, all of you will still need to stay here for another five hundred years before you can go to the Five Realms."
Lin Yuan looked around and said lightly.
With the demonic forces Lin Yuan left behind on the Five Realms, he could suppress everything.
But if the strong beings on North Sea Island swarmed into the Five Realms, it wouldn't be easy to handle.
So Lin Yuan gave everyone a five-hundred-year period.
With this period of buffer, losing the North Sea Eye's absorption, the resurgence of the celestial qi of the Five Realms, and the emergence of some tenth-realm experts or even eleventh-realm experts in five hundred years, were still possible.
"Yes."
Nalan Island Master and the other strong beings agreed without hesitation.
They had waited for thousands of years, so five hundred years was naturally not a problem.
"Since that's the case."
Lin Yuan waved his hand, and beams of light flew out, landing on the forehead of each strong being.
These lights were refined by Lin Yuan using the breath of the North Sea, combined with his own strength.
Once someone left the area of North Sea Island, it would trigger the self-destruction of these lights.
"Remember, you can only go to the Five Realms after five hundred years."
Lin Yuan added, then disappeared in front of everyone.
Five Realms.
Great Xia Empire.
For one hundred and twenty years, Nuan Shu and the other demonic lords had been governing the Five Realms methodically according to Lin Yuan's instructions.
And established a vast empire.
Named the Great 'Xia' Empire.
The 'Xia' here comes from the surname of Xiahou Yuan.
Great Xia Empire.
Imperial Palace.
Nuan Shu rubbed her forehead, her expression showing exhaustion.
The Great Xia Empire had no emperor, only twelve ministers of state, led by Nuan Shu, the former subordinate of the former Demon Emperor Xiahou Yuan.
"The density of celestial qi is increasing again?"
Nuan Shu walked to the window, muttering to herself.
Over the years, she had also reached the ninth realm, with keen perception, naturally sensing that across the entire Five Realms, the celestial qi was slowly becoming denser.
"In the future, celestial qi will continue to increase until fifty years later, returning to the environment of hundreds of thousands of years ago."
Just then, a deep voice suddenly sounded.
Startled, Nuan Shu turned around.
When she saw the owner of the voice, her eyes immediately reddened.
"My Lord."
Nuan Shu immediately knelt down, her tone excited.
"Get up."
Lin Yuan shook his head.
"These ten tokens contain the power I left behind."
As Lin Yuan's words fell, ten wooden tokens floated in front of Nuan Shu.
"In the future, if you encounter an insurmountable situation, you can crush one of these tokens, and the power within will temporarily grant you the strength of the thirteenth realm."
Lin Yuan said indifferently.
This was also a back-up plan left by Lin Yuan for the Great Xia Empire.
Even if tens of thousands or millions of years passed, the power of the thirteenth realm could still sweep away everything.
"Yes."
Nuan Shu hesitated for a moment, unable to help but ask, "My Lord, are you leaving us?"
The words Lin Yuan spoke made Nuan Shu speculate unfavorably. With Lin Yuan's strength, why would he need to leave behind tokens like this unless he was leaving?
"Where in the world is there no separation?"
Lin Yuan shook his head, seemingly affirming.
"Then where is My Lord going?"
Summoning her courage, Nuan Shu asked.
"Where am I going?"
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment.
"From where I came, I will return."
Lin Yuan's figure disappeared.
Leaving behind Nuan Shu, still kneeling on the ground, with a bewildered expression.
Southern Region.
In a dense forest.
Lin Yuan's figure appeared.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan glanced around.
He noticed in the distance, in a mountain stronghold, Xiao Huo, Shen Lang, and Yang Bixing disguised themselves as ordinary people, playing with children there.
"The Sons of Destiny."
Lin Yuan sighed.
Without him, Xiao Huo, Shen Lang, and Yang Bixing should have been the most dazzling trio in the Five Realms.
After all, these three were highly valued by the world consciousness and were the greatest power used to deal with the North Sea Eye.
But now, it was evident that these three had been severely affected by Lin Yuan's actions and directly hid themselves in remote mountains and forests.
Western Region.
In the midst of a desert.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on the sand.
"About to leave."
Lin Yuan's thoughts diverged.
At this moment, there was only about half a stick of incense worth of time left before his departure.
"Martial Dao."
Lin Yuan sensed infinitely and faintly felt the blood and qi emitted by martial practitioners across the Five Realms.
"If one day..."
"The martial dao system disappears from this world."
Lin Yuan suddenly muttered in a low voice.
"Then, a second North Sea Eye will appear."
With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, that hair-thin 'North Sea Eye' appeared in front of him.
Then he swallowed it in one gulp.
And began to sink into the desert.
Continuously sinking.
Endlessly.
At the same time.
On the other side of the desert.
Celestial qi gathered.
Forming a figure.
This figure's eyes were pure gold, aloof and merciless.
He glanced at the location where Lin Yuan had sunk, then his figure turned into celestial qi again, disappearing from the spot.
(Good luck with the contest :D)
