...
At the core cave dwelling on Baiyu Island.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his terrifying aura spreading through the void, rippling out in all directions as if it were ripples formed by a stone thrown into a calm body of water.
"This world..."
Lin Yuan opened his eyes and looked towards the direction of the Daode Immortal Sect in the Central Divine Continent.
With his current understanding of space, no matter how far the distance, he could sense that deep within the Daode Immortal Sect, space seemed to be torn open, suggesting some kind of incompleteness.
It was as if there was a black dot suddenly appearing on a piece of white paper, which would stand out as extraordinarily 'prominent' in Lin Yuan's vision.
"Is that the 'Ascension Platform' controlled by the Daode Immortal Sect?"
Lin Yuan appeared thoughtful.
Compared to the final spatial rift in the Divine Arms World,
this Ascension Platform's connected spatial passage seems much more stable and orderly.
It was similar to the spatial passage formed by the crystal cube that the eldest senior brother brought out when Lin Yuan first broke through to the Sixth Rank, which allowed direct arrival at the Chikun Main Star.
Lin Yuan sat at the East Sea, observed the Ascension Platform at the Daode Immortal Sect for a while, and then shifted his gaze away.
The Ascension Platform, as of now, held no secrets for Lin Yuan—it was simply a stable space passage leading to a certain world.
Of course.
Stable as it might be, it was still filled with a kind of spatial pressure, and only those of at least the Sixth Rank or Refining Void Ancient Saint Layer could pass through it.
...
"Two hundred and eighty years..."
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, having descended into this world almost three hundred years ago, with just a fraction of the five hundred years of residency time left.
"Sixty years ago, I had already stepped into the twelfth segment of the Sixth Rank, fifty years ago, I reached the peak of the twelfth segment, and just now, I even managed to take a half-step beyond the twelfth segment... But the Seventh Rank, I still haven't figured it out..."
In a hundred years, besides the Taoist Immortal Scripture from the Daode Immortal Sect, Lin Yuan had comprehended all the techniques and secret arts of this world and used their essence as nutrients to feed into the Martial Path Evolutionary Path.
However, Lin Yuan understood that to truly start the Seventh Rank Chapter of the Martial Path Evolutionary Path, he still lacked something.
Despite having many references for the Seventh Rank Evolution Pathway to ponder, the Seventh Rank Chapter that Lin Yuan wanted to create for the Martial Path Evolutionary Path would certainly be unique and perfectly fit for himself.
"Seventh Rank..."
Lin Yuan's expression was contemplative.
In this world, the Immortal Cultivation System's realm corresponding to the Seventh Rank was the Dao Integration Stage.
What is the Dao Integration Stage? To become one with the Dao— I am the Dao, and the Dao is me.
The Dao Integration Stage is also known as 'True Immortal,' which is a level truly belonging to immortals.
"Dao Integration?"
"Perhaps observing the Taoist Immortal Scripture will help my Seventh Rank Chapter?"
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
It has to be said that the Immortal Cultivation System indeed has exceptional aspects, and the farther along one gets, the more terrifying the powers wielded by those True Immortals become.
"Unfortunately... the end of this cultivation system... seems to have been occupied by a certain existence..."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
The Immortal Path prevails in this world, and it just so happens that an Ascension Platform connecting to the Spirit Realm, suitable for the Immortal Cultivation System, appears?
How can this be merely coincidence?
In the Dragon Tiger World, there were supreme beings from the upper realms making arrangements, leaving behind the True Martial Sword and the Primeval Demon Spirit.
And in this world, Lin Yuan still sensed traces of the meddling of even higher powers.
"Even if separated by worlds, even the Supreme Beings cannot traverse the gap through nothingness and will be subject to severe restrictions. At most, they can only lower their methods..."
Lin Yuan grew increasingly aware of the terror of the 'Door to the Myriad Realms,' a means that defied both space and time constraints to forcefully project oneself into a particular world, and deemed it inconceivable.
To know, the Door to the Myriad Realms can not only perform Consciousness Descent but also allow physical traversal, and as long as there is enough World-Breaking Origin Force, it can even precisely lock onto and traverse to a specific world.
...
After pondering for a moment.
Lin Yuan got up and walked out of the cave dwelling.
His strength and realm had now reached a certain limit.
Even if he continued to retreat, he might not gain anything in the next several decades or a hundred years.
This was not because Heaven-Defying Comprehension was insufficient—Lin Yuan could open the Seventh Rank path now if he did not care about the potential.
But there are differences between the Seventh Rank and the Seventh Rank.
Some Seventh Rank Evolution Pathways have the potential to ascend to the Ninth Stage Evolution Path.
Some Seventh Rank Evolution Pathways, however, have no chance of ascending even to the Eighth Rank.
...
Spiritual energy swirled around Baiyu Island, and layers of formation light shielded the entire island.
"Wuji."
Jun Dongjin, Mu Lian'er, Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Zhilan, and others, seeing Lin Yuan come out, greeted him promptly.
The disturbance caused by Lin Yuan's recent breakthrough was not insignificant, as cultivators with a bit of strength everywhere in the world sensed it.
"Father, Mother."
Lin Yuan walked over.
"How are things on the island now?"
Lin Yuan asked casually.
Spending most of his time in seclusion, Lin Yuan had left most of the affairs of the White Jade Pavilion to his disciples, as well as to his parents and elder brother and sister.
However, Jun Dongjin and Mu Lian'er were not too keen on intervening in the affairs of the White Jade Pavilion, but Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Zhilan showed some interest.
"Master."
Li Qing stepped forward. As Lin Yuan's disciple, she was primarily responsible for all affairs of the White Jade Pavilion, even Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Zhilan were only helping her.
"Currently in the White Jade Pavilion, there are sixteen million disciples at the First Rank Martial Tao, eight hundred ninety million at the Second Rank, one hundred and ten thousand at the Third Rank, two thousand four hundred and twenty-one at the Fourth Rank Stage Martial Tao, and twenty-four at the Fifth Rank..."
