At the core cave of White Jade Island.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, a terrifying aura permeated through the void, spreading out in all directions like ripples on a calm water surface when a stone is dropped.
"This world."
Lin Yuan opened his eyes, gazing towards the direction of the Daoist Immortal Sect in the Central Continent.
With his current understanding of space, even if the distance was vast, he could sense it. In the depths of the Daoist Immortal Sect, it seemed that a rift had been torn in space, presenting a sense of incompleteness.
It was like a pristine white paper suddenly getting a black dot somewhere, making it exceptionally 'prominent' in Lin Yuan's view.
"Is that the 'Ascension Platform' controlled by the Daoist Immortal Sect?"
Lin Yuan pondered.
Compared to the last spatial crack in the Divine Weapon World.
The spatial channel connected by this ascension platform was much more orderly and stable.
It was similar to the spatial channel formed by the crystal cube that his senior martial brother took out when Lin Yuan had just broken through to the sixth rank.
Sitting in the Eastern Sea, Lin Yuan carefully observed the ascension platform in the Daoist Immortal Sect for a while before shifting his gaze away.
For Lin Yuan now, there were no more secrets about the ascension platform; it was merely a stable spatial channel leading to a certain world.
Of course.
Even if it was stable, it was still filled with a certain spatial oppression. Only those at the sixth rank or Void Refinement Stage Cultivators could pass through at least.
"Two hundred and eighty years."
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his consciousness had descended upon this realm for nearly three hundred years, and there was only a little more than half of the five hundred years of residency time left.
"Sixty years ago, I had already stepped into the twelfth stage of the sixth rank. Fifty years ago, I even reached the peak of the twelfth stage of the sixth rank. Just now, I even barely took half a step into the thirteenth stage of the sixth rank. But the seventh rank, I still haven't figured it out yet."
In a hundred years, apart from the Daoist Immortal Scripture of the Daoist Immortal Sect, Lin Yuan had comprehended all the martial arts and secrets of this realm and integrated their essence into his martial path evolution.
But Lin Yuan understood that he was still a little short of truly opening up the beginning of the seventh rank in his martial path evolution.
Although there were many seventh-rank martial paths for him to comprehend and draw inspiration from, the seventh-rank path Lin Yuan wanted to open up for his martial path evolution would definitely be different and perfectly suited to him.
"Seventh rank."
Lin Yuan pondered.
In the cultivation system of this realm, the corresponding realm to the seventh rank was the Dao Fusion Realm.
What is the Dao Fusion Realm? It means to merge with the Dao, I am the Dao, and the Dao is me.
The Dao Fusion Realm is also known as 'True Immortal,' which is the level truly belonging to immortals.
"Dao Fusion Realm?"
"If I could watch the Daoist Immortal Scripture, perhaps it would be helpful for my seventh-rank path?"
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
It had to be said that the cultivation system of the immortal path did indeed have extraordinary aspects. The further one progressed, the more terrifying the powers those true immortals wielded.
"It's a pity. The end of this cultivation system should have been occupied by some existence."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
In this realm where the immortal path prevailed, there happened to be an ascension platform that connected to the spirit realm, which was also suitable for cultivation in the immortal path?
How could such a coincidence happen? In the Dragon and Tiger Realm, there were powerful beings from the upper realm who laid out the plans, leaving behind the True Martial Sword and the original Demon Spirit.
And in this world, Lin Yuan still felt traces of involvement from a higher level.
"It's just that the two realms are separated. Even if the strongest exist, it's impossible to cross over out of thin air. There will be heavy restrictions, at most, they can only descend with their means."
Lin Yuan increasingly felt the terror of the 'Gate of the Myriad Realms.' This method, which disregarded space and even time, forcibly sent oneself to a certain world, was simply unimaginable.
You have to know that the Gate of the Myriad Realms not only could send consciousness but also could shuttle flesh, and as long as the power of breaking through the realm was sufficient, it could even accurately lock onto a certain world and shuttle there.
After pondering for a moment.
Lin Yuan stood up and walked out of the cave.
His strength and realm had reached a certain limit now.
Even if he continued to seclude himself for decades or even hundreds of years in the future, he might not necessarily gain anything.
It wasn't that the Unrivaled Insight was inadequate. If Lin Yuan didn't care about the potential of the seventh-rank path, he could have opened up the seventh-rank path now.
But there were differences between the seventh ranks.
Some seventh-rank martial paths had the potential to advance to the ninth rank martial paths.
Some seventh-rank martial paths had no chance of advancing to the eighth rank at all.
White Jade Island was surrounded by spiritual energy, and layers of formations enveloped the entire island.
"Wuji."
Jun Dongjin, Mu Lian'er, Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Zhilan, and others saw Lin Yuan coming out and immediately greeted him.
The movement Lin Yuan made when he broke through just now was not small. Practitioners with a bit of strength throughout the world felt it.
"Father, Mother."
Lin Yuan walked over.
"How is the situation on the island now?"
Lin Yuan asked casually.
Most of the time, Lin Yuan was in seclusion, so he basically entrusted the matters of White Jade Pavilion to his several disciples, as well as his parents and elder brother and sister.
However, Jun Dongjin and Mu Lian'er were not very willing to intervene in the affairs of White Jade Pavilion, but Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Zhilan were somewhat interested.
"Master."
Li Qing stood up. As Lin Yuan's disciple, she was mainly responsible for everything in White Jade Pavilion, even Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Zhilan were just assisting her.
"Now at White Jade Pavilion, there are sixteen million first-rank martial disciples, 8.9 millions second-rank martial disciples, 110k third-rank martial disciples, two thousand four hundred and twenty-one fourth-rank martial disciples, and twenty-four fifth-rank martial disciples," Li Qing paused here for a moment, then whispered:
"No disciples have yet cultivated to the sixth rank."
"Good" Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
The martial path evolution had only been spreading for over two hundred years. The emergence of so many practitioners was considered rapid development.
In fact, the fastest development of the martial path evolution was in the past century.
A hundred years ago, Lin Yuan made a crushing impact on the gates of the Daoist Immortal Sect. Although he didn't break through the Daoist Immortal Mountain in the end, who didn't know about his invincible might?
So, naturally, the martial path evolution spread by Lin Yuan attracted countless people, especially those on the islands of the Eastern Sea, who were eager to join White Jade Pavilion.
"Martial Path Sixth Rank."
Even with Lin Yuan's guidance, no martial disciple had reached the sixth rank so far.
Lin Yuan wasn't surprised by this.
The sixth rank corresponded to the Void Refinement Stage Cultivators. Even in the main world, the fifth to sixth ranks were a threshold.
The life essence of a sixth-rank evolver had transformed, and they could already imprint their life marks on the stars of the universe.
This world was no exception. The Void Refinement Stage Cultivators were undoubtedly the ceiling of combat power. Even in the Daoist Immortal Sect, most of the time, there was only one Ancient Saint presiding.
Actually, if it weren't for Lin Yuan's enlightenment, breaking the limitations of the martial path evolution and making it inclusive of everything, it's estimated that there wouldn't be many martial disciples at the fourth or fifth ranks now.
Not everyone had talent in the aspects of Yin, Yang, and Tai Chi.
"Next, I'm going to leave for a while."
After chatting with his family and disciples for a while, Lin Yuan spoke up.
"Leave?"
Mu Lian'er had some guesses in her heart and asked tentatively, "Wuji, do you want to go to the Daoist Immortal Mountain?"
A hundred years ago, Lin Yuan didn't forcefully attack the Daoist Immortal Mountain.
A hundred years later, after experiencing several breakthroughs, Lin Yuan now walked out of White Jade Island, and his purpose was self-evident.
"Yes."
Lin Yuan nodded.
The Daoist Immortal Mountain was indeed one of his destinations.
"Wuji."
Mu Lian'er sighed, wanting to say something but hesitated.
"Mother, rest assured, I know what I'm doing."
Lin Yuan comforted.
His intention for going to the Daoist Immortal Sect this time was indeed to negotiate.
Of course, only the ancestors of the Daoist Immortal Sect in the Spirit Realm had the qualification to negotiate with Lin Yuan.
Outside White Jade Island.
Lin Yuan's figure appeared.
"Daoist Immortal Sect."
Lin Yuan glanced in the direction of the Central Continent.
Before going to the Daoist Immortal Sect, Lin Yuan had one more thing to do.
That was the White Jade Island beneath his feet.
To be precise, it was the bottom of the deep sea beneath White Jade Island.
The position of White Jade Island was not fixed. Every two thousand years, it would sink to the bottom of the deep sea, and then rise again after two thousand years.
Now White Jade Island had become a holy land for martial cultivators.
Even in the future, if the center of the martial path shifted to the Central Continent, the position of White Jade Island could not be replaced.
Just like the ancestral star of the Human Civilization Alliance in the main world.
The Human Civilization Alliance's territory was vast, including countless inhabited planets, but there was only one ancestral star.
Symbolic significance outweighed everything.
In this case, if White Jade Island continued to follow the rule of sinking and floating every two thousand years, it would naturally be somewhat inappropriate.
At the bottom of the deep sea.
It was almost completely dark here.
Terrifying pressure came from all directions.
Even Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation stage cultivators didn't dare to stay in such an environment for a long time.
What's more,the most terrifying thing at the bottom of the deep sea was not the extreme environment.
It was those ancient monsters and beasts that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan followed White Jade Island and came to the bottom of the deep sea beneath it.
"This is a deep-sea eye. Every two thousand years, when the seawater flows, it generates a huge suction force, swallowing a large amount of seawater and sending it to the other end of the Eastern Sea, repeating every two thousand years."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
And White Jade Island was located on the upper part of the sea eye. Every time the suction force was generated, it would sink uncontrollably until it reached the bottom of the deep sea, blocking the sea eye, before stopping.
When the suction force disappeared, White Jade Island naturally floated up again.
"To resist this suction force is not difficult, it's just a matter of sealing this sea eye, not to mention Void Refinement Stage Cultivators, even Divine Transformation stage Celestial Lords can do it."
"However."
Lin Yuan glanced around.
With his perception, he naturally sensed many terrifying deep-sea monsters nearby.
If he started to seal this sea eye, it would definitely alarm those deep-sea monsters. These deep-sea monsters were huge in size, and they were in their own territory.
Even if they were Void Refinement Stage Cultivators, if they were surrounded by a group of deep-sea monsters, they would probably only be able to escape in embarrassment.
But these things were nothing to Lin Yuan.
"Seal."
Lin Yuan looked towards the deep-sea eye, his thoughts stirring slightly, and a stream of Qi surged out, beginning to seal the enormous sea eye.
Buzz.
Many deep-sea monsters in the distance sensed the movement here.
They immediately swam towards Lin Yuan's location.
The next moment, these deep-sea monsters seemed to sense something.
They fled at a speed ten times or even dozens of times faster than they came.
"Not bad."
Lin Yuan glanced at those deep-sea monsters fleeing frantically. He had intentionally leaked a little bit of his aura just now, which almost scared those deep-sea monsters out of their wits.
Although deep-sea monsters had low intelligence, they weren't stupid. Faced with a presence far beyond their own, who would dare to approach?
An hour later, Lin Yuan completely sealed the deep-sea eye.
Then he left the seabed and headed towards the direction of the Central Continent.
Daoist Immortal Mountain.
Lin Yuan's figure appeared silently.
A hundred years had passed, and there were no significant changes in the Daoist Immortal Mountain.
But the disciples of the sect had obviously become much more low-key. Unless there was something important, they would hardly leave the Daoist Immortal Mountain.
"You two stay outside."
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yuan's thoughts moved slightly, and his Yin and Yang avatars came out and stood on both sides.
Although, with Lin Yuan's current strength, even if the ancestors of the Daoist Immortal Sect in the Spirit Realm were really invited down, it probably wouldn't pose any threat to him.
But it's better to be safe than sorry.
As a precaution, Lin Yuan still planned to leave his Yin and Yang avatars outside.
Lin Yuan's original self and his Yin and Yang avatars were one entity. As long as one of them remained, even if the other two were extinguished and fell, it wouldn't be considered death. They could be reborn again.
With the Yin creating the Yang, or the Yang creating the Yin.
Ultimately, the Taiji gave birth to all things, and the "all things" here referred to Lin Yuan's physical body.
"Leave a drop of blood outside."
Lin Yuan raised his right hand, and a drop of bright red blood appeared, falling into the Yang avatar.
Although the fusion of Yin and Yang into Taiji and then the derivation of the physical body required a considerable amount of time.
And it also consumed some primordial energy.
It would be much better if blood could be used as a substitute.
Lin Yuan's mastered fleshly divine ability—Blood Rebirth.
Even with just a drop of blood, he could quickly be reborn. This was the power of divine abilities.
"Now it's about right."
Lin Yuan looked at the arrangements he had left behind, a smile appearing on his face.
With this backup plan, even if the most unlikely situation occurred, he could still recover at the fastest speed.
"Daoist Immortal Sect."
Lin Yuan turned his head and looked towards the nearby mountain.
Various protective arrays flashed through Lin Yuan's eyes.
If it were a hundred years ago, faced with these protective arrays, Lin Yuan might have to forcefully break through many of them.
But after a hundred years, Lin Yuan not only cultivated diligently but also comprehended the Daoist Immortal Sect's protective arrays with his transcendent wisdom. Now, he understood all the protective arrays of the Daoist Immortal Sect.
A hundred years ago, Lin Yuan's original self and Yin and Yang avatars joined forces to attack, with the purpose of observing the operation of their formations.
Under the tremendous pressure caused by Lin Yuan's actions, many protective arrays of the Daoist Immortal Sect operated beyond their capacity, allowing Lin Yuan to see some of the essence of these protective arrays.
By comprehending the essence of these arrays with his transcendent wisdom, Lin Yuan today could easily enter and exit many protective arrays of the Daoist Immortal Sect.
Especially with regard to many protective arrays of the Daoist Immortal Sect, he knew them like the back of his hand and could easily pass through them.
