Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

In the deepest part of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, a Xuan Huang-colored crystal slowly undulating in front of him.

At this moment, Lin Yuan was on the verge of completely refining the core of the secret realm, just a hair’s breadth away.

It would take at most half an hour, or at the longest, several days, to fully refine it.

By then, Lin Yuan would take control of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, achieving something that even the supreme beings longed for but couldn’t obtain.

The supreme beings from all the peak clans in the main universe, along with solitary supreme beings and every twelfth-rank life, all covetously eyed the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

Every time the secret realm opened, several supreme beings attempted to lock onto its coordinates.

Other supreme beings who didn’t make a move would observe in secret.

Should any variability occur, they could arrive in an instant.

One could imagine how much the supreme beings valued the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

This included the nine supreme beings of human civilization.

This was also why Lin Yuan was reluctant to reveal that he was the new master of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

He didn’t even wish to disclose much to human civilization itself.

It wasn’t that he was wary of human civilization, but some things are better left unsaid to avoid undesirable outcomes.

Once Lin Yuan stepped into tier 12, proclaiming this matter would carry no risks.

“This Xuanhuang Secret Realm… is not an independent, complete world,” Lin Yuan mused, brushing up against the essence of the secret realm as he was on the brink of fully refining its core.

The Xuanhuang Secret Realm existed dependent on the main universe, sharing the same rule of time.

“Xuanhuang’s methods… are indeed unfathomable,” Lin Yuan murmured after carefully sensing it for a while.

The Xuanhuang Secret Realm was hidden deep within the countless spatial layer gaps of the main universe, beyond the reach of even the supreme beings.

Why was that?

It was because the Xuanhuang Secret Realm was almost merged into one with the main universe.

Only by leveraging the vastness of the main universe could these supreme beings be thwarted in their attempts.

With Xuanhuang’s methods, he definitely could have created a complete, independent world.

But doing so would prevent it from merging with the main universe, and it would have been only a matter of time before the supreme beings locked onto its coordinates.

It’s like suddenly having a black dot appear on a sheet of white paper, which would be quickly noticed, no matter how small the dot is because it contrasts so greatly with the white background.

But if a white dot appeared on the same white paper, hidden by the light, it would become much harder to discover.

In front of entities like the twelfth-rank lives that supreme beings are, whether the Xuanhuang Secret Realm is an independent world makes no difference once the coordinates are locked.

“Hmm?”

“Can I sense the presence of Xuanhuang Secret Realms in other, incredibly distant locations?” Lin Yuan wondered, having a breakthrough in his mind through the core of the secret realm.

The Xuanhuang Secret Realms seemed to have certain connections with each other.

However, it was merely a faint connection as each secret realm sat in a different universe, too far apart from one another.

Unless one was a supreme being, even life forms of tier 11 could not traverse such distances.

And for supreme beings, after having control over one Xuanhuang Secret Realm, the others didn’t offer them much advantage.

The real allure of the Xuanhuang Secret Realms for supreme beings lay in the heritage left by Xuanhuang, as well as the three Dao-Protecting Secret Skills.

As for the rest? Some Xuanhuang Crystals, or possibly ninth-rank or tenth-rank secret treasures? Those weren’t worth a supreme being’s effort to travel across universes.

“The Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path, since the disappearance of Xuanhuang, has not given rise to an ultimate existence…” Lin Yuan stroked his chin, his thoughts wavering.

The threshold of the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path was too high, making it too difficult to disseminate and impossible to take the ultimate leap without relying on oneself.

In the era of Xuanhuang, there was no notion of spreading one’s evolutionary path.

The idea of leveraging the power of all beings as a boost for the ultimate leap didn’t emerge until after Xuanhuang vanished.

…

Whether or not the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path had an ultimate existence affected Lin Yuan very little.

He had never planned to become a supreme being through the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path.

For Lin Yuan, the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path was at most a source of insight to be studied and learned from.

He intended to extract its essence and integrate it into himself.

To Lin Yuan, the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path held various uncertainties.

For instance, what if one relied on this evolutionary path to become a supreme being, and then Xuanhuang suddenly ‘returned’?

Could there be two ultimates on a single evolutionary path? Sёarch* The nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

What would happen then?

A clash of great daos between two ultimate existences?

Would one ultimate become nourishment for the other?

Of course, the probability of such an event was minuscule, even negligible.

The hopes for Xuanhuang’s ‘return’ were virtually nonexistent.

But a risk was still a risk.

Having his own Martial Path Evolutionary Path, which he created from scratch, Lin Yuan naturally wouldn’t choose the former path.

The Martial Path Evolutionary Path was currently at the ninth rank, but with his Against-Heaven’s Understanding, Lin Yuan was confident he could evolve it to the twelfth rank.

Or even higher.

…

“Continue cultivating the ‘Xuanhuang Physique’…” Lin Yuan flipped his right hand, and a fist-sized Xuanhuang Crystal appeared, before being ground into powder and assimilating into his body.

The Secret Technique of cultivating the “Xuanhuang Physique” didn’t consume much heart force.

Lin Yuan only needed to continually operate the “Xuanhuang Physique” Secret Technique, absorbing the Xuanhuang Crystal along with various secret treasure weapons.

Rustle, rustle.

Moments later, the fist-sized Xuanhuang Crystal was completely absorbed.

Lin Yuan then took out another piece.

“This ‘Xuanhuang Physique’ does consume quite shockingly,” Lin Yuan sighed in his mind.

In these five years, just cultivating this secret technique had consumed an amount of Xuanhuang Crystal equivalent to millions of cubic cosmic crystals.

Millions of cubic cosmic crystals, which was the equivalent of an entire fortune of a ninth-rank Myriad Heavy Realm powerhouse.

And for Lin Yuan, it only lasted five years.

Of course.

Despite such consumption.

The results had been extremely gratifying.
