Amidst a daze, Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

"I'm dead already?"

The scene of entering the space fissure floated in Lin Yuan's mind.

It was an endless chaotic flow of space.

No colors, no directions.

Before Lin Yuan could react, his own self began to collapse.

The Tai Chi Field, flesh, spirit, soul, and everything else.

All collapsed.

"Fortunately, I didn't go in twenty years ago, or I would have really wasted this time."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

As soon as he saw the space fissure, Lin Yuan felt an extreme danger.

So he promptly left.

Using these twenty years to continue traveling the world.

Enlightening the Tao and incidentally solving some troubles for the Great Yan Dynasty,

Training several martial gods, completely solidifying the position of the Liu family's regime.

"How did the ancient god leave thousands of years ago?"

Lin Yuan was slightly puzzled, according to his speculation, the ancient god was at most at the peak of the fourth rank.

Absolutely impossible to exceed the fifth rank.

And facing that level of spatial turbulence, even a fifth-rank wouldn't survive long.

"Doesn't matter."

Lin Yuan didn't bother thinking much.

He began to take stock of this journey.

Undoubtedly, the greatest gain of this journey for Lin Yuan, was the establishment of the third and fourth ranks of the Martial Way Evolution System.

Although, before the journey, Lin Yuan had already reached the third rank.

But that was just entering the third rank, the mid-stage, late-stage, and peak of the third rank, were all perfected in the world of divine weapons.

Finally, he even stepped into the fourth rank at once.

It should be noted that Lin Yuan's chosen path of cultivation is the most difficult rule-based path.

If it was just a normal breakthrough to the fourth rank, it wouldn't have taken Lin Yuan so long.

"Rule essence."

Lin Yuan walked out of the nutrient warehouse and faintly felt the vast and endless rules of the universe from all directions, the vastness of the cosmic sky.

Compared to the rules of the world of divine weapons, the rules of the main world are countless times stronger.

Not only vast but also more perfect.

In the main world, it's almost impossible to forcibly extract the rule essence like the ancient god did.

This isn't a matter of strength, but anyone who dares to do so will inevitably be crushed by the immense power of the main world.

"It's been over two days, not bad."

Lin Yuan glanced at the time and made a mental note.

In the world of divine weapons, one hundred and sixty years have passed, but in the main world, it's only been over fifty hours.

"My current realm is probably equivalent to the ninth stage of the fourth rank?"

Lin Yuan examined himself. After suppressing the Sun-Moon Spear, he had only spent a little over ten years to reach the fourth rank.

The following eight or nine years were all spent laying nodes in the Five Mountains Battlefield, in order to form the Tai Chi Cauldron to suppress the thirty-five divine weapons.

The subsequent twenty years of wandering the world, were entirely dedicated to enlightening the Tao and cultivating.

From the first stage to the ninth stage of the fourth rank, were basically completed during these twenty years.

Of course, realm is one thing, Lin Yuan's current strength still remains at the initial stage of the third rank.

"Choosing the cosmic spiritual objects carefully, and I'll be able to recover soon."

Lin Yuan opened the shop and began to make selections.

For evolvers, the most important thing is their own realm.

As for energy intensity? Without mastery of the realm, it's meaningless.

"Just these two."

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and confirmed his choice of spiritual objects.

Currently, Lin Yuan's cultivation system still revolves around the Yin and Yang of the Tai Chi Dao.

So the chosen cosmic spiritual objects naturally include Yin and Yang attribute spiritual objects.

"1.2 billion."

Lin Yuan glanced at the price.

This time, Lin Yuan's transmigration surpassed the previous two times by far.

The difference between the initial stage of the third rank and the ninth stage of the fourth rank is a whopping twenty-one stages.

Therefore, the cosmic spiritual objects chosen this time naturally have a high level of quality.

In fact, without the status of a fourth-level citizen, even if Lin Yuan is wealthy, he wouldn't even be able to see cosmic spiritual objects of such quality.

"I'm still short on money."

Lin Yuan sighed.

Normally, for an evolver at the initial stage of the third rank to reach the ninth stage of the fourth rank, even if everything goes smoothly without encountering any bottlenecks, it would take hundreds or even thousands of years.

And this is under the premise of having a complete evolution path guide.

For a third-rank evolver, dispersing the cultivation expenditure of 1.2 billion over several hundred years is not a problem at all.

It's just that freaks like Lin Yuan, who improve too quickly in a short period, end up not being able to keep up with their wealth. (the problem of most mcs)

"A fourth-level citizen has a 1 billion loan limit, plus the prize money from my arena matches."

Lin Yuan confirmed his identity information and purchased those two cosmic spiritual objects.

In this arena match, the team competition provided Lin Yuan with nearly 1 billion in prize money.

As for the individual competition, since it hasn't ended yet, all the prize money will be settled after it's over.

"Let's upload the 'Third Rank Section' of the Martial Way Evolution Path."

Lin Yuan made a decision after seeing his bank balance decrease.

Uploading the subsequent parts of the Martial Way Evolution Path has only benefits and no drawbacks for Lin Yuan.

Firstly, it allows him to earn a large number of merit points.

And in the Cosmic Human Alliance, merit points are extremely important.

Ordinary citizens earn merit points mainly in three ways.

One is to join the military and fight against alien races at the border.

Each alien killed contributes to the entire human civilization, so corresponding merit points can be obtained.

Second is to serve the Cosmic Human Civilization, and according to the assessment of the Three Goddesses, one can also earn corresponding merit points.

For example, the governor of Canglan Star, if the citizens of Canglan Star are highly satisfied during his term of office, and if he makes real contributions to the planet, he can earn corresponding merit point rewards.

The third is research and invention, which includes various new discoveries, evolution paths, and other types of technology.

In addition to the above three categories, there are other ways to earn merit points.

For example, stumbling upon traces of aliens, or their conspiracies, and then reporting it to the Goddess of Wisdom to prevent losses to human civilization.

Afterward, the Goddess of Wisdom will fairly judge the importance of this information and reward merit points accordingly.

In Lin Yuan's mind, uploading the evolution path is undoubtedly the most cost-effective way to earn merit points.

As for killing aliens? The border battlefield is full of dangers, and Lin Yuan doesn't need to take such risks.

And serving the Cosmic Human Alliance? Taking on half-official roles is too troublesome, and there's also the pressure of 'achievements'.

Moreover...

Improving the Martial Way Evolution Path has another benefit.

That is, improving one's ranking on the Evolution Path Leaderboard.

It should be noted that just because Lin Yuan uploads the evolution path to the Goddess of Wisdom, it doesn't mean the evolution path is no longer his own, Lin Yuan is still the founder of the evolution path.

For every citizen within the Cosmic Human Alliance who purchases the Martial Way Evolution Path for cultivation, Lin Yuan can receive thirty percent of the income.

And the higher the potential of the Martial Way Evolution Path, the higher the rank on the Evolution Path Leaderboard, the greater the promotion it receives.

Finally, the more wealth Lin Yuan earns.

The key is that this income is continuous.

This is just the direct impact.

As the founder of a powerful evolution path, there are many indirect and hidden effects.

"Third Rank Section"

Lin Yuan, with his Unrivaled Insight, began to make some improvements to the third rank section of the Martial Way Evolution Path.

Making it suitable for citizens of the main world to cultivate.

Two days later.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

"Goddess of Wisdom."

Lin Yuan directly connected to the Goddess of Wisdom.

"Respected fourth-level citizen Lin Yuan, the Goddess of Wisdom is pleased to serve you."

After advancing to a fourth-level citizen, the Goddess of Wisdom's attitude towards Lin Yuan became even more gentle.

"I want to upload the third rank section of the Martial Way Evolution Path."

Lin Yuan said.

As for why there's no fourth rank section. Lin Yuan himself is still at the ninth stage of the fourth rank, And hasn't completely finished this level yet, so there's no need to upload it prematurely.

Besides, the third rank section is already enough.

The rule-based path chosen by Lin Yuan is reflected in the third rank section.

Buzz.

With Lin Yuan quickly uploading the content of the 'Third Rank Section', in a mysterious space thousands of light-years away from Canglan Star.

Large light screens flickered rapidly, and massive computing power evaluated and deduced the value of the Martial Way Evolution Path's 'Third Rank Section.'

The third rank section uploaded by Lin Yuan is divided into the 'War God Section' and the 'Celestial Realm Section.'

"Detected that the 'War God Section' contains a certain advanced way of forging the body. Detected that the 'Celestial Realm Section' involves the power of the source rules, starting to re-evaluate the potential of the Martial Way Evolution Path."

"Assessment completed. The current Martial Way Evolution Path has a hundred percent chance of advancing to the fifth-level evolution path, and a sixty percent chance of advancing to the sixth-level evolution path."

"The possibility of the Martial Way Evolution Path advancing to the sixth-level evolution path exceeds fifty percent, triggering the Constitutional Secrecy Agreement."

"Relevant plans generated. From now on, all promotions of human citizens with the ID number 123****** will be handled by the Three Goddesses without the need for authorization from others."

"Start judging the value of the third rank section. Forty thousand merit points. Shall we seek authorization from the highest citizen nearby? Not necessary."

Water Moon District.

Residential building number thirty-two.

Lin Yuan is adapting to his current 'weak' physical body.

The solemn and cold voice of the Goddess of Wisdom sounded.

"Respected Fourth-tier Citizen Lin Yuan"

"So fast?" Lin Yuan's expression showed some surprise.

Compared to the previous two times he uploaded to the Evolution Pathway, the response speed from the Goddess of Wisdom was noticeably faster this time.

"After the final assessment, the Third-rank article you uploaded is worth forty thousand merit points," the Goddess of Wisdom replied.

"Good," Lin Yuan nodded.

Forty thousand merit points weren't the value of the entire Martial Path Evolution, but rather the value of the Third-rank article.

"Unfortunately, there's still a shortfall of merit points to advance to Fifth-tier Citizen" Lin Yuan scanned his merit point balance.

To advance from Fourth-tier Citizen to Fifth-tier Citizen, one needed fifty thousand merit points.

When Lin Yuan advanced to Fourth-tier Citizen last time, it consumed ten thousand merit points, leaving him with a balance of nine thousand merit points. Now, with the additional forty thousand merit points he just acquired, he had a total of forty-nine thousand merit points.

"Let's see the updated information on the Martial Path Evolution Pathway now" Lin Yuan thought, accessing his evolution system interface.

"The ultimate potential remains at the Sixth-rank" Lin Yuan rubbed his chin.

The Seventh-rank Evolution Pathway seemed much more challenging than he had imagined. Even many insights he had gained into the essence of various rules in the Divine World couldn't offer even a slight possibility of the Martial Path Evolution Pathway advancing to the Seventh-rank.

"Perhaps... there are other limiting conditions for the Seventh-rank Evolution Pathway?" Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before continuing to look further.

"There's a ten percent chance of advancing to the Fifth-rank Evolutionary System and a sixty percent chance of advancing to the Sixth-rank Evolution Pathway," a smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

If his memory served him right, before uploading the Third-rank article, the chance of the Martial Path Evolution Pathway advancing to the Sixth-rank Evolution Pathway was only ten percent. Now, it had skyrocketed to sixty percent, evidently due to the essence of the rules.

"Oh, right."

"Now, where does the Martial Path Evolution Pathway rank on the Canglan Evolution List?" Lin Yuan, with a hint of curiosity, looked towards the latest ranking of the Martial Path Evolution Pathway.

For others to know the real-time ranking of a certain evolutionary path, they had to wait for the Canglan Evolution List to update. But as the founder of the Martial Path Evolution Pathway, Lin Yuan could naturally access any real-time information about it.

[Martial Path Evolution Pathway: Canglan Evolution List: First]

Virtual world.

Personal room.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged. The environment simulated in his personal room at this time was a vast desert.

The scorching air spread like wildfire.

"Hmm?" Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

"President Liao is looking for me?" Lin Yuan's thoughts stirred.

The barren desert in front of him began to change at his will.

Soon, it transformed into a mansion, with small bridges and flowing water, reminiscent of a Jiangnan-style residence.

In the next moment.

President Liao's figure appeared on the opposite chair.

"Mr. Lin Yuan" President Liao addressed Lin Yuan with considerable respect.

After all, in the arena matches, Lin Yuan's demonstrated strength repeatedly shattered President Liao's preconceptions.

And now, he had even advanced to the top ten in the individual matches.

It should be noted that the arena matches on Canglan Star were open to all evolvers from Canglan Star.

For Lin Yuan to be able to break into the top ten in such a competitive arena, how could he not be considered an outstanding talent?

Even without thinking too much, President Liao knew that after this arena match, Lin Yuan would soar to heights he could hardly reach.

"There's a little over a week left before the final top ten competition," President Liao stated his purpose for coming.

Although from Lin Yuan's previous records, it was easy to see that his chances against the other monsters in the top ten weren't very high.

Many speculated that Lin Yuan might be the weakest among the top ten.

But there was still a basic level of concern.

Even if he might not win, Lin Yuan had secured a place in the top ten, which was a pride for Dongning City for thousands of years.

"Mr. Lin Yuan, this is what I've gathered—videos of the battles of those top ten evolvers, along with analyses of higher-level evolvers. I believe that after watching them, you'll gain a deeper understanding," President Liao immediately opened a video and started playing it.

Battle videos weren't rare, but what was significant was the analysis of other evolvers accompanying them.

It should be noted that the same battle might be perceived differently by evolvers of different levels.

Higher-level evolvers could easily identify the weaknesses and flaws of the opponents.

If Lin Yuan could absorb the judgments in these analyses, perhaps he could gain an advantage in the upcoming top ten competition.

He didn't dare to think about reaching the top five or even the top three, but getting the seventh or eighth place was still very hopeful.

After all, being able to enter the global top ten meant that the difference in strength between each other wasn't significant. Maybe just a little more understanding could play a crucial role.

"Mr. Lin, please have a look" President Liao played the video.

"So strong" President Liao watched the video with Lin Yuan.

Even though he had watched it many times, President Liao was still amazed.

However, Lin Yuan, who was watching the video beside him, seemed indifferent.

The pressure he felt before seemed insignificant now.

Those evolvers standing within the top ten globally.

Now, for Lin Yuan, they were too weak.
