Chapter 275 Breaking the Myth (Subscription Request)
In an instant, five eighth-order invincible aliens emerged from the depths of the space layer.
With them at the center, the surrounding space began to solidify,
Like a flowing river suddenly freezing,
Creatures within the river seemed trapped in amber.
Capturing Lin Yuan alive meant preventing him from escaping first.
In this regard, sealing off space was most appropriate; once space was sealed, all means of teleportation would be useless.
With the capabilities of the five eighth-order invincibles and their understanding of spatial rules, Lin Yuan sought to break their spatial blockade.
There were only two possibilities: fully comprehending the complete spatial rules to leave with absolute control, or wielding power far beyond their combined strength, as absolute power could shatter even space.
"Done."
Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe breathed a sigh of relief.
Before they acted, Lin Yuan's only chance was to escape before space was sealed.
Lin Yuan, as a disciple of the Chikun Star Lord, might have been granted some form of instant teleportation by the Star Lord's profound understanding of spatial rules, allowing him to escape in advance.
But now?
Space had been sealed, and Lin Yuan hadn't left. Sara felt assured.
Even the Chikun Star Lord would be suppressed under their joint blockade.
"Quicksand."
Sara's eyes turned cold.
Yellow sand particles gathered, sweeping in from all directions, rapidly accumulating and increasing in momentum.
The power of quicksand, a cosmic force Sara wielded, wasn't for attack or defense but for endless suppression and control.
This time, the five eighth-order invincibles, led by him, utilized this cosmic force.
To completely kill the Galaxy Star Lord with Memory Poison, they first needed to suppress and control him.
The cosmic force Sara wielded was perfectly suited for this. With the power of quicksand, he dominated the battlefield. The other four eighth-order invincibles attacking alongside him had essentially locked down any resistance from the Galaxy Star Lord.
Of course, by resistance, they meant the combat power Lin Yuan had previously displayed.
As the force of quicksand swept over, the other four eighth-order invincibles also made their moves.
The cosmic forces wielded by eighth-order invincibles vibrated, but they also retained some power. Their goal was to control the Galaxy Star Lord rather than kill him outright.
Outside the Galaxy Main Star.
Captain Nolan was about to greet Lin Yuan. Setting aside everything else, the Galaxy Star Lord, who had purchased eighty thousand cubic universe crystals in one go, had already become the most distinguished guest.
Suddenly,
Space solidified.
Captain Nolan's expression changed drastically. Before he could react, a heavy force of quicksand enveloped them.
Captain Nolan was also an eighth-order evolutionist, nearing the peak of the eighth order, but at this moment, he couldn't even move. All he could perceive was that four incomparable auras were descending.
"It's four eighth-order invincibles, no, it's five!" Captain Nolan's scalp tingled. It was rare to encounter even one eighth-order invincible, let alone five at once.
Now there were five.
Moreover, the killing intent emanating from these five eighth-order invincibles was unmistakable. Even though he wasn't their target, Captain Nolan felt his soul trembling.
"Galaxy Star Lord!"
Captain Nolan looked at Lin Yuan. He realized that the target of these five eighth-order invincibles was the Galaxy Star Lord. Besides the Galaxy Star Lord, who else could be worthy of five eighth-order invincibles joining forces?
"So there were five bugs lurking outside?"
Lin Yuan glanced at Sara and the other eighth-order invincibles.
Before Lin Yuan left the Galaxy Main Star, these five eighth-order invincibles had hidden in the deep layers of space, extremely covert. It was difficult to detect them unless one checked deliberately.
After all, Lin Yuan was now also at the eighth order, equivalent to the eighth-order invincibles.
Buzz.
The next moment,
With Lin Yuan at the center, a force of black and white Yin-Yang energy spread out in all directions.
Wherever the force of black and white Yin-Yang energy spread, the solidified space returned to normal. The five cosmic forces, including the power of quicksand, were all crushed, and even the four eighth-order invincibles rushing forward began to retreat, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Lin Yuan.
"This power..." Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe's face turned serious. "It's definitely cosmic force. Galaxy Star Lord, have you comprehended cosmic force?"
Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe couldn't believe it.
More than twenty years ago, Lin Yuan had just reached the eighth order, and now he had comprehended some kind of cosmic force, becoming an eighth-order invincible Lin?
What... What kind of freak was this?
Although Lin Yuan had only recently reached the eighth order, the Galaxy Star Lord had displayed peak eighth-order combat power when cleansing the Galaxy Star Domain. But peak eighth-order and eighth-order invincible were entirely different concepts.
Moreover—
Sara could sense that the cosmic force Lin Yuan had comprehended was definitely not simple. It belonged to a higher level of cosmic force, even stronger than normal higher-level cosmic forces.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for him to easily crush the joint efforts of the five eighth-order invincibles.
At the moment the five eighth-order invincible aliens appeared, billions of miles away from the Galaxy Main Star.
A man in a white robe appeared, looking towards the direction of the Galaxy Main Star. "Those aliens really made their move."
This man in the white robe was none other than the White Light Star Lord, a friend of the Chikun Star Lord. Not long ago, he had traded the cosmic treasure "Heart of Thunder" with Lin Yuan.
The White Light Star Lord was a senior peak eighth-order, not weaker than the Chikun Star Lord in understanding spatial rules.
So, the White Light Star Lord had strong survival abilities. The deeper his understanding of space, the easier he could traverse billions of miles in a single step and hide within multiple layers of space, equivalent to being invincible.
Therefore, while the White Light Star Lord's combat power might not match that of an eighth-order invincible, his means of escape far surpassed those of the eighth-order invincibles.
After trading the Heart of Thunder with Lin Yuan, the White Light Star Lord mentioned it to the Chikun Star Lord. As a result, he was requested by the latter to stay outside the Galaxy Main Star for a while longer to ensure Lin Yuan's safety.
"Five eighth-order invincibles?"
The expression of the White Light Star Lord changed slightly. If it were just one or two eighth-order invincibles attacking Lin Yuan, he could intervene to save him. As long as Lin Yuan held out for an instant, he could be saved.
But five eighth-order invincibles...
Even if these five eighth-order invincibles weren't as proficient in spatial rules as him, quantity could lead to a qualitative change. His task wasn't to escape but to rescue Lin Yuan before escaping himself.
"It seems I have to use that treasure." The White Light Star Lord raised his right hand, and a cluster of white flames began to burn.
As the pinnacle civilization among humanity, there were countless treasures. The White Light Star Lord, being a senior peak eighth-order, naturally possessed many trump cards.
The white flames burning in his hand were a disposable treasure. Once activated, they would erupt with a power close to the ninth-order level.
Enough to temporarily fend off those five eighth-order invincibles.
However, the next moment.
Lin Yuan effortlessly shattered the joint siege of the five eighth-order invincibles and easily repelled the other four eighth-order invincibles, leaving the White Light Star Lord somewhat bewildered.
What happened?
Wasn't the Galaxy Star Lord supposed to be in dire straits?
He hadn't even intervened to save him yet, so how did the situation change?
"Eighth-order invincibles, let's go."
Outside the Galaxy Main Star, realizing that Lin Yuan had comprehended some kind of cosmic force, Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe made a decisive decision to leave.
Even if Lin Yuan's comprehension of cosmic force surpassed that of normal higher-level cosmic forces, the plan was considered a failure.
Even if it was just ordinary cosmic force, it was still cosmic force. With the Galaxy Star Lord wielding such power, he was on par with them, the eighth-order invincibles.
While there were differences in strength among eighth-order invincibles, the gap wouldn't be too large. One side couldn't completely defeat the other, let alone kill and leave them behind.
If not for fearing the arrival of strong beings from human civilization, Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe would definitely have continued to probe Lin Yuan with the other four eighth-order invincibles.
"Forget it."
"It's probably just talk."
"No need to bother with the Galaxy Star Lord."
Sara's thoughts converged, and he began to accelerate his departure from the Galaxy Star Domain.
Crash.
Not long after they had fled, Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe felt the pervasive presence of the black-and-white Yin-Yang Tai Chi force from all directions.
"The cosmic force wielded by the Galaxy Star Lord?"
Sara immediately activated the power of quicksand, trying to resist.
It was obvious.
The Galaxy Star Lord had caught up.
But Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe wasn't afraid either. Even if he wasn't as strong as the Galaxy Star Lord, at most he would be suppressed, unable to even limit his own escape.
However.
Not long after.
In Sara's perception, in addition to the black-and-white Yin-Yang Tai Chi force, a completely new force emerged.
This force was immeasurable and endless.
"Another cosmic force? Or is it a higher-level cosmic force?"
Sara was greatly shocked and felt a sense of crisis.
"This Galaxy Star Lord, he controls two kinds of cosmic forces, and they're both higher-level cosmic forces?" Sara vaguely felt a great fear.
The next moment.
A breath of annihilation swept over, startling Sara.
"A third kind of higher-level cosmic force?"
"This Galaxy Star Lord..."
Fear filled Sara's eyes, and his figure began to disintegrate, his consciousness plunging into darkness.
Lin Yuan stood where Sara's figure had disintegrated, caught his spatial bracelet, and stored it in his inner world.
With the Tai Chi force, the immeasurable force, and the force of annihilation, three mutually complementary higher-level cosmic forces, and enhanced by the power of the world extending for tens of millions of miles within his body, Lin Yuan's combat power had already opened up a significant gap with normal eighth-order invincibles. Killing Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe was not difficult.
This was still Lin Yuan holding back. He had only displayed three kinds of cosmic forces, while dozens of other cosmic forces had not been used yet, not to mention the primal force beyond higher-level cosmic forces, which had not been revealed.
In a certain star domain deep in the universe.
The original form of Sara of the Dark Lynx tribe suddenly opened his eyes.
"That Galaxy Star Lord?!"
Sara's expression was full of fear. As an eighth-order invincible, he naturally had avatars, and the one currently exploring outside was one of them.
After all, eighth-order invincibles were not absolutely safe. If they encountered certain powerful ninth-order beings, even eighth-order invincibles would die.
Sara had considered that his avatar might perish, but he hadn't expected it to die at the hands of another eighth-order human evolutionist.
"How is this Galaxy Star Lord so strong? He has comprehended three kinds of higher-level cosmic forces?"
Sara trembled with fear, feeling that something was not right. Even if it was just three kinds of higher-level cosmic forces, it shouldn't have been possible for him to be 'instantly killed' as he had been. It was obvious that besides those three cosmic forces, the Galaxy Star Lord must also possess another powerful force.
"The Galaxy Star Lord... The insect race is going to have a headache." Sara silently thought to himself.
Although losing one avatar was a heavy blow, judging by the performance of the Galaxy Star Lord just now, he would probably become a major problem for the insect race.
"And... the myth of eighth-order invincibility has been shattered."
Sara's expression was complicated.
The Galaxy Star Lord.
With the Tai Chi force enveloping all directions, supplemented by the immeasurable force and the force of annihilation, Lin Yuan soon killed another eighth-order invincible alien.
"Three escaped."
Lin Yuan glanced in three completely different directions.
The escape directions of the five eighth-order invincibles were naturally inconsistent but scattered.
After killing two, the other three had already run far away.
After witnessing Lin Yuan kill eighth-order invincibles like slaughtering chickens, these three eighth-order invincible aliens were terrified and did everything they could to use various means to escape.
In fact, with Lin Yuan's current strength, even if he hadn't fully recovered to his peak, he could still detain those five eighth-order invincibles.
However, it would inevitably reveal more cosmic forces.
With dozens of cosmic forces at his disposal, including the primal force surpassing higher-level cosmic forces, they were supposed to be his trump cards.
To reveal them just to kill a few eighth-order invincibles, Lin Yuan felt it wasn't worth it.
And even killing them wasn't certain. Lin Yuan could feel that the two eighth-order invincibles he had killed were still connected to him in some way, meaning they hadn't truly died yet, indicating that their originals were still alive.
"Although eighth-order invincibles are on the same level as the supreme fairy kings in terms of combat power in the spirit realm, they far surpass the latter in means of escape."
Lin Yuan pondered.
The reason for this wasn't hard to understand. In the spirit realm, the supreme fairy kings were basically at the ceiling, but in the main world, eighth-order invincibles didn't even rank at the top.
So eighth-order invincibles placed great emphasis on means of escape, and most of them had backgrounds that could bestow stronger existences upon them.
This was something the supreme fairy kings of the spirit realm couldn't compare with at all.

Chapter 276: Chikun Star Lord: Has My Disciple Surpassed Me? (Please subscribe)
Outside the Milky Way Galaxy.
Three figures converge.
These three figures are the three eighth-order invincibles who previously attempted to assassinate Lin Yuan.
At this moment, these three eighth-order invincibles looked fearful and weak. To escape the pursuit of the Galaxy Star Lord, they had paid a heavy price.
"Galaxy Star Lord... How can he be so strong?"
One of the figures trembled in voice. Initially, the five eighth-order invincibles thought the mission was simple: assassinate an evolutionist who had just reached the eighth rank. Wasn't it supposed to be a piece of cake? Even if that Galaxy Star Lord was a genius, so what? However, reality slapped them in the face. If they hadn't run fast just now, they would probably have been trapped in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Although the three eighth-order invincibles had avatars, it still took countless resources to create them. If they were lost, it would be a long time before they could recover.
"How does the insect race operate? Before sending us to assassinate, they didn't even thoroughly investigate the background of the Galaxy Star Lord." The second eighth-order invincible couldn't help but speak out.
The Galaxy Star Lord was too strong.
Strong enough to make even eighth-order invincibles tremble in fear.
In such a situation, undoubtedly, it was the fault of the insect race.
"Yes, how did the insect race gather intelligence?" The third eighth-order invincible also voiced dissatisfaction.
Galactic Main Star.
Countless evolutionists were shocked as they watched the scene just now.
What did they see?
Five eighth-order invincible aliens easily repelled by the Galaxy Star Lord?
Ordinary evolutionists couldn't see much, only knowing that the five eighth-order invincibles had voluntarily retreated.
But eighth-order evolutionists could roughly see that the Galaxy Star Lord chased and easily killed two eighth-order invincibles.
Killed?
Eighth-order invincibles?
The combination of these two words was completely absurd.
Even if eighth-order invincibles were killed, it would usually be by ninth-order powerhouses or certain war weapons.
But killed by a Galaxy Star Lord who had just reached the eighth rank?
Was the world going mad?
"When did the Star Lord become so powerful?"
"How could I feel that those eighth-order invincibles were weak?"
"Eighth-order invincibles couldn't possibly be weak. Did you forget the spatial pressure caused by those five aliens the moment they appeared?"
"It's not that the eighth-order invincibles are weak, it's that the Star Lord is too strong."
Chunbo and Jiali, two eighth-order evolutionists, discussed excitedly while on the Galactic Main Star.
Likewise, Hongpi and Biyan were equally shocked as they watched the Galaxy Star Lord effortlessly kill eighth-order invincibles.
Having followed the Chikun Star Lord, they were well aware of the strength of eighth-order invincibles. Even the Chikun Star Lord himself couldn't possibly kill an eighth-order invincible.
It might be possible to suppress an eighth-order invincible, but defeating or killing one was as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
"Galaxy Star Lord."
Outside the Galactic Main Star, Captain Nolan was parched, still needing to observe more than the eighth-order evolutionists on the main star had seen.
From the appearance of those five eighth-order invincible aliens to their panicked escape, he saw it all.
"The myth of the eighth-order invincible has been shattered by the Galaxy Star Lord."
Captain Nolan quickly thought to himself.
The so-called myth of the eighth-order invincible was that eighth-order invincible powerhouses could never be killed by peers.
Eighth-order invincibles were at the absolute pinnacle of the eighth rank and so on.
To kill an eighth-order invincible, there were only two ways: a higher-ranked powerhouse or wielding some kind of powerful "external force."
Here, external force referred to weapons, artifacts, and so on.
On the battlefield of the aliens, occasionally, scenes would unfold where a powerful individual wielded an exceptionally strong weapon.
That was considered "external force."
However, just now, the Galaxy Star Lord hadn't used any external force.
The five eighth-order invincibles understood this, and so did Captain Nolan.
To effortlessly kill eighth-order invincibles without using external force, what else could it be if not shattering a myth?
Whoosh.
As Captain Nolan was still in shock...
A figure suddenly appeared before him.
It was the Galaxy Star Lord.
"I'll take these Taiwei Crystals," Lin Yuan said.
Just as he was about to collect the Taiwei Crystals, he was interrupted by the five eighth-order invincibles. Now that he had dealt with them, he naturally intended to finish the task.
"Alright."
"Please sign for them, Galaxy Star Lord," Captain Nolan immediately responded, showing utmost respect.
At this moment, Captain Nolan's respect was entirely genuine, without any other factors.
Before today, Captain Nolan's respect for Lin Yuan was due to his background, talent, and various other factors.
But now, it was solely because of his strength.
It was akin to countless human civilization evolutionists greatly admiring and respecting the nine supreme powerhouses.
With Lin Yuan confirming his identity and accepting the crystals...
With a slight thought, he stored each space device from the battleship into his inner world.
The Taiwei Crystals purchased with eighty thousand universe crystals piled up enough to fill dozens of planets.
Captain Nolan, nearing the peak of the eighth rank, had an inner world of only a few thousand miles in diameter and couldn't accommodate all the Taiwei Crystals.
As for storing space devices containing large quantities of Taiwei Crystals into the inner world, it also depended on the inner world's capacity limit.
A space device containing resources the size of a planet couldn't fit into an inner world several hundred miles in diameter.
But for Lin Yuan, these Taiwei Crystals posed no problem at all.
Even without expansion, Lin Yuan's current inner world size was tens of millions of miles in diameter.
Not to mention the Taiwei Crystals worth eighty thousand universe crystals, even if it were eight hundred thousand, they could be easily accommodated.
Back at the Galaxy Main Star, in the palace...
After Lin Yuan stored all the Taiwei Crystals into his inner world, he returned directly to this place.
"Let's take a look at the spoils," Lin Yuan thought, and two space wrists appeared in front of him.
These two space wrists were from the two eighth-order invincibles he had killed, and he had also collected their vitality and blood when their bodies disintegrated, as well as their weapons and treasures.
"So wealthy."
Lin Yuan roughly surveyed them, a smile appearing on his face.
Inside the two space wrists, just the universe crystals alone totaled over two hundred thousand.
Not to mention other treasures and weapons.
If converted into universe crystals, it would be a considerable income.
Lin Yuan roughly calculated the total value of the loot from killing two eighth-order invincibles, which was close to five hundred thousand universe crystals.
In other words, on average, each eighth-order invincible contributed two hundred and fifty thousand universe crystals to Lin Yuan.
This was the normal value of an eighth-order invincible.
Whether it was Sa La of the Dark Lin Clan or another eighth-order invincible, they never imagined that this assassination of the Galaxy Star Lord would encounter such problems.
The Galaxy Star Domain was located on the edge of the human civilization's territory. The worst-case scenario was that the assassination failed, and they could retreat with their whole bodies. They never expected to fall completely into Lin Yuan's hands.
So, the avatars of these two eighth-order invincibles were carrying a large number of universe crystals and treasures because they didn't think there would be any risks in the assassination mission.
"Is this... Memory Poison?"
Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly.
In Sa La's space wrist, he found this peculiar item.
"The aliens want to completely kill me with this." Lin Yuan naturally knew the effects of Memory Poison. It was a strange item that targeted the memory, and even powerhouses couldn't be 'resurrected' from it.
"Unfortunately, Memory Poison is ineffective against me." Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
Not to mention that after his eighth transmigration, his strength had skyrocketed to match that of a ninth-order powerhouse.
Even if he hadn't undergone this transmigration, with the Divine Sealing Bead bestowed upon him by the Xiaqin powerhouse, he could resist the erosion of Memory Poison.
"Although it's useless for me, such an item cannot be measured by its value." Lin Yuan solemnly put away the Memory Poison.
"Recovering the cost in one go." Lin Yuan's spirit was uplifted.
Before, he was lamenting the purchase of eighty thousand universe crystals worth of Taiwei Crystals, but now, in the blink of an eye, he had acquired treasures worth five hundred thousand universe crystals.
Not only did he recover his investment, but he also made a big profit.
And this was excluding the Memory Poison.
Because Lin Yuan didn't know the value of Memory Poison, but it could be certain that it was worth far more than hundreds of thousands of universe crystals.
"With this Memory Poison, one could completely kill a peerless genius of another race," Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Not only the peak races like the insect race but also human civilization collected lists of peerless geniuses. Each time one was killed, the killer would receive substantial rewards.
Human civilization also collected lists of peerless geniuses from other peak races. As long as they could kill one completely, it would help human civilization eliminate threats, and they would also receive a considerable amount of merit points as rewards.
"If only I had kept those three eighth-order invincibles."
"At the very least, I should have pursued them."
Lin Yuan felt some regret. He was also unaware that these eighth-order invincible aliens, entering the territory of human civilization to assassinate him, would carry so many treasures and universe crystals.
Virtual world.
Personal space.
The Crimson Kun Star Lord and the White Light Star Lord sat facing each other.
"What did you say? The aliens sent five eighth-order invincibles to assassinate my disciple?" The Crimson Kun Star Lord exclaimed in shock.
The moment the White Light Star Lord discovered the appearance of the five eighth-order invincible aliens outside the Galaxy Main Star, he sent a strand of consciousness into the virtual world to contact the Crimson Kun Star Lord.
"Don't worry, I'll use the secret treasure, White Heart Flame." The White Light Star Lord's expression was solemn.
"White Heart Flame." The Crimson Kun Star Lord was still not reassured.
Once the White Heart Flame was activated, it could indeed erupt with a basic power close to that of a ninth rank. But the other party consisted of five eighth-order invincibles.
As long as they were willing to pay the price, they could completely withstand the damage from the White Heart Flame.
Since the aliens had dispatched five eighth-order invincibles, they must have been confident of their success.
"No, I need to contact a supreme powerhouse."
The Crimson Kun Star Lord suddenly stood up.
"Wait."
Suddenly, the White Light Star Lord stopped the Crimson Kun Star Lord.
"What are you waiting for?" The Crimson Kun Star Lord frowned.
"It's okay, those five eighth-order invincible aliens have retreated." The White Light Star Lord was silent for a moment, then said somewhat unbelievably.
"Retreated?"
The Crimson Kun Star Lord was also stunned.
Although this result was unexpected, it also relieved him slightly.
"Was it one of my human ninth-rank evolutionists who happened to save my disciple?" The Crimson Kun Star Lord sat back down and said, "I, Crimson Kun, will definitely thank them in person."
In the Crimson Kun Star Lord's view, only a ninth-rank evolutionist could make five eighth-order beings retreat voluntarily.
As for human eighth-order invincible evolutionists? One or two eighth-order invincibles wouldn't be able to make five eighth-order invincible aliens back down.
As for five or six human civilization evolutionists? Where would such a coincidence occur? Eighth-order invincible evolutionists usually presided over medium-sized alien battlefields. Without the mobilization of the Three Goddesses, they wouldn't gather together like this.
So the Crimson Kun Star Lord believed even more that it was a passing human ninth-rank evolutionist who intervened to save Lin Yuan.
"It's not a ninth-rank evolutionist," the White Light Star Lord said again after a moment of silence, shaking his head.
"Not a ninth-rank evolutionist?" The Crimson Kun Star Lord was surprised. "Then which eighth-order invincibles were they? I, Crimson Kun, also want to thank them in person."
If not a ninth-rank evolutionist, then it could only be several passing eighth-order invincibles. Although this scene was incredible, since it had happened, the Crimson Kun Star Lord wouldn't say anything.
"There were no passing eighth-order invincibles," the White Light Star Lord was silent for a moment, then said again.
At this, the Crimson Kun Star Lord fell silent too.
"Old man, what exactly do you mean?" The Crimson Kun Star Lord became somewhat impatient.
Why was he always denying his guesses without revealing the facts? What was he trying to hide?
"It was your disciple who drove back those five eighth-order invincibles," the White Light Star Lord said, looking at the Crimson Kun Star Lord with a complex expression.
"My disciple... um, who did you say?" The Crimson Kun Star Lord was stunned, not quite grasping it at first.
Every word the White Light Star Lord said made sense, but together they left the Crimson Kun Star Lord bewildered.
"I said, your disciple single-handedly forced the five eighth-order invincible aliens to retreat," the White Light Star Lord repeated.
This time, the Crimson Kun Star Lord fully understood.
He blinked, unsure of what to say for a moment.
Forcing five eighth-order invincibles to retreat could mean many things, but the most likely reason was that those five eighth-order invincibles found Lin Yuan unbeatable, prompting their retreat.
Entering human territory for an assassination, even on the outskirts, those five eighth-order invincibles couldn't stay long. If they realized the task was unachievable, they'd decisively give up to avoid human reinforcements.
But to achieve this, Lin Yuan must have become an eighth-order invincible himself.
Thinking this, the Crimson Kun Star Lord felt deeply moved. How long had it been, and his young disciple had grown to stand shoulder to shoulder with him?
"Crimson Kun, there's something else I'm not sure I should mention," the White Light Star Lord said, glancing at the reflective Crimson Kun Star Lord, hesitating.
"What is there left unsaid now?" the Crimson Kun Star Lord laughed. "I should be happy that my disciple has caught up to me."
"Your disciple not only made those five eighth-order invincibles retreat but also pursued and killed two of them," the White Light Star Lord said quietly.
"Killed two eighth-order invincibles?"
The Crimson Kun Star Lord fell silent again. Even as powerful as he was, he couldn't kill two eighth-order invincibles, let alone while being besieged by five.
"Did you see it clearly?"
The Crimson Kun Star Lord's expression turned slightly serious.
Killing eighth-order invincibles wasn't unheard of. On large alien battlefields, eighth-order invincibles fell from time to time.
But to think the one who killed them was his disciple, who had only stepped into the eighth order a few decades ago and wasn't even a hundred years old.
"I confirmed it."
The White Light Star Lord affirmed.
Though not an eighth-order invincible himself, his deep understanding of spatial rules allowed him to see clearly despite the distance. He had witnessed those two eighth-order invincible aliens die at the hands of the Galaxy Star Lord.
"My disciple..."
Hearing this, the Crimson Kun Star Lord didn't doubt it but instead showed a wry smile.
He had misspoken earlier.
His disciple hadn't just caught up to him.
He had surpassed him.

"Crimson Kun, you've taken in an exceptional disciple."
The White Light Star Lord looked at the Crimson Kun Star Lord and spoke.
In the human civilization of the universe, it's not uncommon for a disciple to surpass their teacher.
This might not be the case among some alien races, where geniuses are often suppressed, controlled, or enslaved. This leads to the strong remaining strong, with those in power restricting the advancement opportunities for those below them.
However, this phenomenon is almost
nonexistent in human civilization.
Under the governance of the three ultimate intelligent goddesses, any talent you can display is protected. Even if you lack any special abilities, you can still live a peaceful life as long as you don't break the law.
Because of this, the average human might be weaker compared to other peak races, but humans can consistently produce a large number of strong individuals. This allows them to dominate the universe, capable of contending with and even overpowering peak races like the Zerg.
"That's true," the Crimson Kun Star Lord sighed. "Having such an outstanding disciple can be a bit troublesome for the teacher."
The White Light Star Lord rolled his eyes at this.
At Crimson Kun's level, advancing further becomes difficult, and conversations with friends often revolve around their disciples' achievements. The more exceptional Lin Yuan became, the prouder Crimson Kun felt.
"Can you produce such a powerful disciple?" he'd ask. "Even if I didn't personally train him, I was wise enough to recognize his talent."
Since taking in Lin Yuan, the Crimson Kun Star Lord had lived comfortably, never losing in comparisons with his friends. Learning of Lin Yuan's impressive feats from the White Light Star Lord made him even more pleased. Even if his friends advanced to the ninth order, they'd still be outshone in disciple matters.
"What's there to show off?" the White Light Star Lord sneered. "Just hope your disciple reaches the ninth order before you remain stuck at the eighth."
The White Light Star Lord joked, knowing that ninth-order powerhouses integrate with the great universe, while Lin Yuan, despite his formidable prowess, was still at the eighth order.
"I don't mind," the Crimson Kun Star Lord replied nonchalantly.
The battle outside the Galaxy Star spread through human territory like a hurricane. The human domain is vast, and even the affairs of ninth or tenth-order evolvers rarely spread far. However, Lin Yuan's battle against the five eighth-order invincible aliens, killing two, caused a significant stir across human civilization.
Every star region has eighth-order invincibles. As such, they understand the difficulty of an eighth-order invincible killing another. This wasn't merely defeating or suppressing—it was killing.
"Little Junior Brother," the head of the Crimson Kun faction murmured, staring at the information before him in a remote star region. He had long known of his junior's terrifying talent. When Lin Yuan first entered the eighth order, he could easily defeat those who had adapted to it for a while, even when holding back.
Since then, the head knew their gap would only widen. However, he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. While he struggled to balance regional forces, his junior was slaughtering eighth-order invincibles.
"Did the Thirteenth Peak Master really kill two eighth-order invincibles?" The Holy Son of the Wanyang Star Region sighed upon learning the news.
"I once wanted to challenge the Thirteenth Peak Master. Now, it seems laughable," he thought, recognizing Lin Yuan's exceptional growth. Despite the shock, the Holy Son quickly accepted that Lin Yuan, having once been his rival, could break the undefeated myth of eighth-order invincibles.
"To think I once sparred with the Thirteenth Peak Master," the Holy Son felt a hidden pride.
Back on the Galaxy Star, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his consciousness descending into his inner world.
"So much Taiwei Qingjing..."
Massive amounts of Taiwei Qingjing, enough to form the volume of several dozen planets, were piled in one area of his inner world, emanating pure energy.
"Time to expand," Lin Yuan thought, releasing the suppression on his inner world.
In an instant, tens of thousands of tons of Taiwei Qingjing shattered, transforming into pure energy that merged into his inner world, fueling its rapid expansion.
"I'll expand my inner world to its limit first, then use the mysterious gourd's liquid to boost the basic multiplier," Lin Yuan planned, aiming to maximize efficiency.
### Chapter 277: Sensation (Subscribe for More)
After half a month of traveling, Lin Yuan didn't immediately start absorbing the liquid from the mysterious gourd. He wanted to wait for the Taiwei Qingjing to arrive first.
If he absorbed the liquid from the mysterious gourd and increased his inner world's basic multiplier to thirteen times, the energy required to expand his inner world to the extent dictated by his understanding of spatial rules would be far greater than now.
Going from one to three consumes an additional two, but going from ten to thirty consumes an additional twenty.
At that point, the cosmic crystals Lin Yuan would need to consume wouldn't be eighty thousand units but eight hundred thousand or even over a million units.
"At the current expansion rate, it will take five or six days to expand to 37.5 million li. Then, after absorbing the liquid from the mysterious gourd, within at most half a month, my inner world should be restored to nearly a hundred million li," Lin Yuan speculated as he observed for a while.
In nearly a thousand years in the spiritual realm, he spent a lot of time absorbing the various colored liquids from the mysterious gourd, greatly enhancing his physical body's regeneration ability, "Rebirth from a Drop of Blood."
Reabsorbing it wouldn't take long.
After observing for a while longer, Lin Yuan's consciousness returned to the outside world.
The expansion of his inner world was an instinctive process that didn't require his constant supervision. He only needed to ensure a sufficient energy supply.
"How many merit points do I have now? Twenty-six million?" Lin Yuan glanced at his status and pondered.
The eighth-order martial arts chapter was worth twenty-two million merit points.
Out of the remaining four million merit points, 1.5 million were awarded for informing the Goddess of Wisdom about comprehending the 3,333 evolution paths within the bodies of powerful beings.
Another one million merit points were awarded for killing the two eighth-order invincibles.
Normally, killing an eighth-order alien grants one million merit points, and killing an eighth-order invincible grants even more.
But since Lin Yuan didn't completely kill those two eighth-order invincibles—their true bodies were still alive—he only received a combined one million merit points.
Nevertheless, Lin Yuan was satisfied. Besides, those two eighth-order invincibles had provided him with treasures and weapons worth nearly fifty thousand cosmic crystals, which was already a significant gain.
The additional one million merit points were essentially a bonus.
The remaining one million merit points were what Lin Yuan had previously accumulated.
"To upgrade from a seventh-level citizen to an eighth-level citizen, I need fifty million merit points?" Lin Yuan checked the requirements for the next level and shook his head slightly.
Fifty million merit points were an astronomical amount, even for eighth-order invincible evolvers.
"No wonder many evolution scholars aren't eighth-level citizens," Lin Yuan thought.
An evolution scholar must at least open up a completely new eighth-order evolution path, which alone is worth millions of merit points.
Additionally, each evolution scholar has a research planet in the central star region, where they can constantly develop various results, earning a steady income of merit points over time.
Furthermore, evolution scholars can join the Academy of Human Civilization and the Evolution Institute, receiving regular merit point grants.
Despite these multiple channels for earning merit points, many evolution scholars still haven't become eighth-level citizens.
"Take it slow."
"As long as I can develop the ninth-order martial arts chapter, it should be enough to upgrade to an eighth-level citizen," Lin Yuan thought. The eighth-order martial arts chapter was worth twenty-two million merit points; the ninth-order chapter couldn't be worth less. It would be more than enough to become an eighth-level citizen.
"Eighth-level citizen..." Lin Yuan's expression showed slight anticipation.
At this level, a citizen isn't just a citizen but a decision-maker within human civilization, capable of influencing entire star alliances.
The current Speaker of the Annan Star Alliance is an eighth-level citizen, wielding influence so great that dozens of surrounding star alliances can't ignore it.
Beyond human territory, in a desolate star region, the massive phantom of a Zerg envoy appeared alongside several other towering figures.
"What's the deal with the Galaxy Lord? How long has he been in the eighth order, yet he can kill eighth-order invincibles?" one towering figure questioned skeptically.
For them, eighth-order invincibles weren't a big deal, but the fact that the Galaxy Lord was so young and had already reached this level was alarming.
"Kanalan, you're the most knowledgeable about the attempt on the Galaxy Lord. What really happened?" the second towering figure asked, frowning at the Zerg envoy's phantom.
"Everything is as you know," the Zerg envoy replied.
She hadn't expected the assassination attempt to end this way. The Galaxy Lord had just entered the eighth order but soon became an eighth-order invincible with incomprehensible strength.
"He didn't use any external assistance?" the third towering figure inquired.
This is very important. If the Galaxy Lord relied on external assistance to kill the two eighth-order invincibles, it wouldn't mean much since external power is limited.
"This is the battle footage."
In front of the Zerg envoy, scenes appeared, showing Lin Yuan confronting the five eighth-order invincibles.
Moments later, the beings finished watching the footage.
"He didn't use any external assistance."
"The Galaxy Lord has at least mastered three types of cosmic power, and they're all advanced cosmic powers."
"One of these cosmic powers seems to have reached the third level."
The towering figures conversed in low voices, with tones of amazement.
Comprehending cosmic power isn't easy, especially advanced cosmic powers.
The Galaxy Lord mastering three advanced cosmic powers is more astounding than killing two eighth-order invincibles.
"No wonder he could kill two eighth-order invincibles."
"These three advanced cosmic powers, when combined, barely touch the threshold of the ninth-order, but in other aspects, they surpass the ordinary ninth-order in many ways."
The towering figures exchanged glances.
A ninth-order strong person killing an eighth-order invincible is difficult because the eighth-order invincible can escape, using their cosmic power to hold off the ninth-order strong person momentarily.
Of course, this refers to the most ordinary ninth-order strong persons. In front of the more powerful ninth-order beings, eighth-order invincibles have a hard time surviving.
The Galaxy Lord, though not a ninth-order strong person, has no weaknesses in his techniques. The cosmic power of the eighth-order invincibles has no effect on him.
On the contrary, the three advanced cosmic powers mastered by the Galaxy Lord can greatly restrict the eighth-order invincibles.
Simply put, it's not that the Galaxy Lord's power exceeds a typical ninth-order strong person, but that the eighth-order invincibles are restrained by him.
"With three advanced cosmic powers, once the Galaxy Lord enters the ninth-order, his progress will be rapid, and his chances of reaching the tenth-order are very high."
"If we had known the Galaxy Lord had such potential, we should have deployed ninth-order strength to assassinate him."
"Tearing up our truce would have been worth it. At most, we'd face retaliation from human civilization, but letting the Galaxy Lord grow will cause us greater losses on the battlefield."
The towering figures continued their discussion.
They harbored intense murderous intent towards the Galaxy Lord, but they realized that his revealed strength would undoubtedly attract the attention of human civilization.
Now, sending a ninth-order strong person to assassinate the Galaxy Lord would be too late.
They might end up ambushed by human civilization's strong persons and suffer losses themselves.
On the Galaxy main star.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
In his inner world, the Taiwei Qingjing, equivalent to fifty planets, was almost entirely consumed.
Lin Yuan's inner world successfully expanded to 37.5 million li in circumference.
This was the fivefold amplified size of his inner world, with the basic size being 7.5 million li in circumference.
"Now I can absorb the liquid from the mysterious gourd," Lin Yuan said as he took out the gourd.
In the main world, his physical body had stopped at absorbing the second type of orange-yellow liquid from the mysterious gourd, but in the spiritual realm, he had almost finished absorbing the fourth type of green liquid, achieving a thirteenfold amplification.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Lin Yuan began to absorb the liquid from the mysterious gourd.
His physical body's divine ability, "Rebirth from a Drop of Blood," had significantly improved, easily withstanding the burning effect of the orange-yellow liquid.
In just over ten days, Lin Yuan's absorption of the mysterious gourd's liquid caught up with his progress in the spiritual realm.
Boom!
His inner world experienced a mad expansion. If Lin Yuan hadn't prepared in advance, the spatial fluctuations caused by the expansion would have swept across the Galaxy main star.
"Finally."
Lin Yuan's consciousness descended into his inner world.
At this moment, his inner world had reached its expansion limit, nearly a hundred million li in circumference.
Vast and boundless.

Chapter 278: Journey to the Magic Jade Space (Seeking Subscription)
"In my current strength…"
Lin Yuan closed his eyes. The power of the world extending for nearly a billion miles within his body underwent a qualitative change, combined with mastery of dozens of cosmic powers.
Lin Yuan finally restored his peak strength.
To be precise, he was even stronger than in the Spirit Realm, after all, the inner world within the body of the main world's physical form had integrated many cosmic treasures.
The physical form in the Spirit Realm didn't have this treatment.
"If those five eighth-tier invincible aliens were to assassinate me at this moment…"
With the inner world within his body restored to nearly a billion miles in size, the increase in Lin Yuan's combat power was absolutely revolutionary.
The difference between a thousand miles in radius and nearly a billion miles in radius far exceeded tenfold.
"At the moment, the absorption of the green liquid inside the mysterious gourd has temporarily reached its limit."
Lin Yuan's consciousness returned to the outside world, contemplating.
The augmentation of the inner world within his body by the liquid inside the mysterious gourd depended on two aspects.
One was the basic size of the inner world within the body, which was the comprehension of spatial rules.
The other was the resistance of the fleshly body's supernatural power 'Blood Rebirth' to the flames formed by the liquid inside the gourd.
"I still need to comprehend spatial rules as much as possible."
"With my extraordinary understanding, I can completely comprehend the complete spatial rules when I reach the eighth tier." Lin Yuan secretly thought.
For other powerhouses, whether they were human evolutionists or alien life forms, it was almost impossible to fully comprehend the complete spatial rules at the eighth tier.
Because the difficulty was too high.
But Lin Yuan didn't think it was difficult at all; it was just a matter of how much time he had to invest.
The lifespan of an eighth-tier evolutionist was long, how old was Lin Yuan now? He had plenty of time to try.
"Anyway, I'll focus on integrating rules and continue to comprehend the core spatial models as a secondary goal."
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment. According to the current interpretation of the eighth and ninth tiers of human civilization, comprehending cosmic power at the eighth tier was very beneficial for cultivating to the ninth tier.
But whether comprehending spatial rules had any impact on reaching the ninth tier was basically negligible, as many powerful beings who had just entered the ninth tier had not yet fully comprehended spatial rules.
In that case…
Lin Yuan believed that it was more worthwhile to advance to the ninth tier as soon as possible.
His extraordinary understanding was related to Lin Yuan's current level. Lin Yuan comprehending spatial rules at the eighth tier and comprehending spatial rules at the ninth tier were completely different in difficulty.
Therefore—
Unless this matter had an impact on his foundation, Lin Yuan would prioritize advancing his own realm.
"The ninth tier."
Lin Yuan's expression was pensive.
The biggest bottleneck to entering the ninth tier was the integration of rules.
It involved integrating a certain common rule mastered by oneself into the pillar rule.
The pillar rule here could be the rule of time, the rule of space, the rule of life, and so on.
Given Lin Yuan's current conditions, naturally, he chose to integrate into the rule of space.
"As for integrating rules, it's not the first time for me."
Lin Yuan's thoughts diverged. After comprehending the Yin rule, the Yang rule began to merge with the Yin rule, giving birth to the power of Tai Chi, a higher cosmic power.
However, the Yang rule and the Yin rule were both common rules, and the difficulty of their fusion was far less than that of the fusion of pillar rules.
"When I was in the Spirit Realm, I had already begun to integrate the Tai Chi rule into the rule of space. The progress reached one-tenth, so I can continue now."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
The fusion between different rules was much more difficult than simply comprehending a certain rule. How could it be easy to merge two completely different rules?
The fusion of Lin Yuan's Yin rule and Yang rule was completely because he had begun to merge from the second and third tiers, gradually comprehending these two rules, and then proceeding to integrate them, which was completely reasonable.
But the fusion of the rule of space and the rule of Tai Chi? Even if Lin Yuan tried with his extraordinary understanding, he would occasionally stagnate.
After several days of continuous contemplation.
Lin Yuan stopped and rubbed his forehead, planning to take a break.
Attempting to merge the rule of Tai Chi with the rule of space not only required sufficient understanding but also required Lin Yuan to exert great mental effort.
So, after practicing for a period of time, Lin Yuan had to stop and rest.
Continuing to try forcibly would only lead to mental exhaustion, and the efficiency of fusion would only get lower and lower.
"Let's see how many practitioners are on the path of martial arts evolution."
Whether in the main world or the traversing world, Lin Yuan attached great importance to the spread of the path of martial arts evolution.
This was related to his 'Ultimate Leap'.
Many strong individuals under the highest level, such as those 'Ancient Gods' in the depths of the universe, liked to spread their own paths of evolution in preparation for the Ultimate Leap.
Lin Yuan's current strength had not yet reached the level of the Ancient Gods, but laying out the Ultimate Leap early had no disadvantages.
Most importantly, the path of martial arts evolution in the main world could also bring Lin Yuan a lot of benefits.
Over the years, just from the income split of the martial arts evolution path, Lin Yuan had earned tens of thousands of universal crystals.
These universal crystals weren't as quick to obtain as Lin Yuan randomly killing a few eighth-tier invincibles, but they were continuous and without any hidden risks.
Killing eighth-tier invincibles, even for Lin Yuan, required taking risks, such as preventing alien powerhouses from using eighth-tier invincibles as bait.
But the income split from the path of martial arts evolution was stable.
"First Tier: 6,263,897."
"Second Tier: 1,125,600."
"Third Tier: 32,421."
"Fourth Tier: 7,307."
"Fifth Tier: 1,038 individuals."
"Not bad, not bad."
"There are more than a thousand people in the fifth tier alone."
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.
Although in the Spirit Realm, Lin Yuan had trained several martial arts seventh-tier powerhouses.
But that had consumed nearly a thousand years. In just a few decades, the main world had given birth to so many martial arts evolutionists, which was extremely rare.
In terms of efficiency, the number of martial arts practitioners cultivated simultaneously can surpass that of the Spirit Realm.
"Pricing the eighth-tier section at five hundred billion civilization coins, and selling over ten thousand copies?" Lin Yuan glanced at the sales volume of the eighth-tier section.
At this time, those who bought the eighth-tier section were basically not practitioners on the martial arts evolution path.
After all, the current practitioners on the martial arts evolution path hadn't even reached the sixth tier, so buying the eighth-tier section was meaningless.
It's probably those eighth-tier practitioners, or even ninth or tenth tier practitioners, who bought it casually.
After all, the current martial arts evolution path ranked first on the Annan Star Alliance evolution list, and its soaring speed, even if ninth or tenth tier practitioners didn't need it, they didn't mind buying it to take a look.
Five hundred billion civilization coins were a huge fortune for sixth or seventh tier practitioners, but for ninth or tenth tier practitioners, it wasn't much.
Ninth or tenth tier practitioners already belonged to the strategic forces of human civilization. Just casually venturing into a cosmic secret realm would yield far more than this amount.
"Selling over ten thousand copies of the eighth-tier section, even after deducting the share of human civilization and taxes, I still have thousands of universal crystals in hand."
Lin Yuan felt pleased. This was just shortly after he uploaded the eighth-tier section; the income brought by the martial arts evolution path behind him would only increase.
Virtual world of the Chi Kun main star.
Lin Yuan and the Chi Kun main star sat facing each other, savoring fine wine.
"It's been a long time since I've relaxed and drank wine like this." Lin Yuan took a sip, feeling the warm taste in his throat.
Although the wine in the virtual world couldn't benefit the physical body in any way, it tasted no different from real wine.
"This wine costs one universal crystal per cup outside. It's much cheaper in the virtual world, but it still costs millions of universal coins." The Chi Kun main star said. Even he couldn't bear to buy such wine in reality, not because he couldn't afford it, but because he felt it was a waste.
"You used three kinds of cosmic powers when you killed those two eighth-tier invincibles. Are they all advanced cosmic powers?" The Chi Kun main star also took a sip, curious.
"I'm not sure if they're advanced cosmic powers." Lin Yuan shook his head.
He only speculated that the power of Tai Chi, the power of destruction, and the power of infinity were advanced cosmic powers, but he didn't know for sure.
"Take a look, teacher." Lin Yuan raised his right hand, and three strands of aura lingered between his fingers.
"It's indeed an advanced cosmic power. With this strand of cosmic power, you've at least cultivated to the third realm." The Chi Kun main star's tone was amazed.
He had long watched the video of Lin Yuan's action, seeing that his disciple had used three kinds of cosmic powers, but when he saw three kinds of advanced cosmic powers obediently nestling between his disciple's fingers, he was still somewhat shocked.
This was an advanced cosmic power.
Not something you could find on the street.
"Everyone's different. When I comprehended a cosmic power back then, how grand it was. You've comprehended three advanced cosmic powers at once." The Chi Kun main star sighed.
"Luck is on my side. I just happened to comprehend three powers, and they all turned out to be cosmic powers." Lin Yuan chuckled.
In the main world's cosmic sky, cosmic powers couldn't be simulated or replicated, so luck was important in comprehending a certain cosmic power.
Some eighth-tier powerhouses hadn't comprehended a cosmic power in tens of thousands of years, while some eighth-tier powerhouses might have comprehended it in just a few decades.
In short, it had random factors.
"Comprehending one might be luck, but comprehending three, can you still call it luck?" The Chi Kun main star sighed.
His disciple was good in every way, but he was too modest.
If it were him, he would want to spread the word to all his old friends.
"Comprehending three advanced cosmic powers. When you step into the ninth tier and establish the foundation of the ninth tier, how solid will it be?" The Chi Kun main star marveled.
What the Chi Kun main star didn't know was that his disciple had comprehended not just three cosmic powers, but dozens of cosmic powers, including the primordial power that surpassed advanced cosmic powers.
Virtual world of the Chi Kun lineage.
Countless members of the Chi Kun lineage whispered quietly, occasionally glancing at the towering central peak.
The well-informed members had long known that the Thirteenth Peak Master, also known as the Galaxy Master, was currently meeting with the Chi Kun main star.
In the past, people wouldn't be so excited about the Galaxy Master, but when news came that the Galaxy Master had killed two eighth-tier invincible aliens in the border star field, it directly ignited all the members of the Chi Kun lineage.
What even the Chi Kun main star couldn't do, the Galaxy Master did. This excited all the members of the Chi Kun lineage.
Even a fool could see that the future of the Galaxy Master was limitless. Being able to kill eighth-tier invincibles at such a young age meant that stepping into the ninth tier was almost inevitable.
"Why is the Thirteenth Peak Master so powerful?"
"Hehe, hasn't the Thirteenth Peak Master created miracles in recent years?"
"If I had known, I would have done everything to join the Thirteen Peaks and become a subordinate of the Thirteenth Peak Master."
"The Thirteen Peaks are very strict in recruiting members. Do you think you can get in just by giving it your all?"
Many members of the Chi Kun lineage were quickly discussing, and the reputation of the Galaxy Master began to spread in the southern star region of human civilization.
Even the Chi Kun lineage became famous.
In a corner of the Chi Kun lineage.
Feng Yu looked into the distance at the central main peak, his face showing a complex expression.
During the Seven Star Cave test, the Thirteenth Peak Master had clearly invited him to join the Thirteen Peaks.
As a result, he had refused and chosen the Great Peak Master, who had already stepped into the eighth tier at the time.
But not long after, Feng Yu regretted this choice because the Thirteenth Peak Master also stepped into the eighth tier.
Compared to the Great Peak Master, who had spent nearly a hundred thousand years stepping into the eighth tier, the Thirteenth Peak Master was superior in every aspect.
Feng Yu felt like a clown for choosing the Great Peak Master. Initially, he had managed to recover over the years, feeling that even if he didn't join the Thirteen Peaks, there was no benefit to becoming a subordinate of the Great Peak Master.
Until recently, when he heard that the Thirteenth Peak Master had killed two eighth-tier invincible aliens.
Those were eighth-tier invincible aliens.
And they were killed by the Thirteenth Peak Master?
Feng Yu felt remorseful to the core. If he had chosen the Thirteen Peaks back then, he would be a prominent figure now.
In that Seven Star Cave test, the two evolutionists who chose the Thirteen Peaks, apart from Mo Li, were forgivable. As a testee of the Chi Wen, they were stronger than Feng Yu to begin with.
But Wu Lan?
Just an ordinary Yin Wen.
No background.
No backing.
Just because she accepted the Thirteenth Peak Master's invitation.
Now, she was highly esteemed in the Chi Kun lineage, even several peak masters treated her with great courtesy.
"One wrong step, and you're in trouble."
Feng Yu sighed inwardly.
Galaxy main star.
After chatting with his teacher, the Chi Kun main star, for a while.
Lin Yuan disconnected from the virtual world.
"I should be at the peak of the eighth tier now."
Lin Yuan thought to himself. After creating the complete martial arts eighth-tier section, Lin Yuan had reached the end of the eighth tier. All that was left was to break through to the ninth tier.
"I could try exploring the Magic Jade Space."
Lin Yuan suddenly thought.
After comprehending three thousand three hundred and thirty-three paths of evolution within the fragment of the body of the strongest being from outside the universe.
In the depths of Lin Yuan's soul, the Magic Jade imprint automatically condensed, becoming a member of the Magic Jade Tower.
Aside from being a symbol of membership in the Magic Jade Tower, and stabilizing the soul and willpower.
It also connected to a mysterious space, namely the Magic Jade Space. This space was opened up by the owner of the Magic Jade Tower.
And this space was also the greatest opportunity contained within the body of that strongest being.
Lin Yuan learned from the Magic Jade imprint that it was best to reach the peak of the eighth tier before considering entering the Magic Jade Space for exploration.
So, today was the day.
"Now is the time."
Lin Yuan probed his soul, locking onto the Magic Jade imprint in the shape of a 'Nine-layer Black Tower'.
"Let's explore."
Lin Yuan activated the Nine-layer Black Tower imprint, and in an instant, his consciousness began to ascend infinitely, descending into a mysterious space.
