Chapter 316: Great Harvest!

After returning to the Shanhai World, Lin Qing also tried to sense with the bloodline treasure of that chaotic creature 'Xu Zhen', and found that neither his several avatars nor the beings of the Shanhai World were suitable for fusing with this bloodline.

However, he was not in a hurry now; he would just search for it slowly in the future.

"After returning from the Time-Space Island, I will start preparing for the Chaos God Trial."

Lin Qing pondered silently, "However, before I attempt the Chaos God Trial, I must first find an heir for the Shanhai World."

Once ascending to the position of Main God, everyone with a karmic connection to the Main God would be targeted by the Yu Xingyuan, such as relatives, friends, and disciples, and such as the hometown civilization world.

Therefore, after he became a Chaos God, he must reincarnate into the King Realm to detach from the Shanhai World, only then could he return to ascend to the position of Main God.

A civilization cannot be without a ruler; thus, he must find a new Lord of Civilization for the Shanhai World, and at that time, find a trustworthy successor and sign a five-star contract.

"Moreover, the World Origin only allows someone similar to the previous owner to become the Lord of the World..."

Thinking of this, Lin Qing also felt it was somewhat troublesome.

A world possesses consciousness; even if the Lord of the World dies, it will only choose someone similar to the previous owner to become the new Lord of the World.

The most important factor is the life level; since he, the current Lord of the Shanhai World, is a Void Ruler, the new Lord of the World must also be a Void Ruler; being higher or lower will not work.

Secondly, if the divine office, faction, and talent are all different, the likelihood of the World Origin accepting them is also not high.

As for others, such as race, gender, temperament, and so on, they will also have an influence.

Therefore, Lords of the World always cultivate and search for successors as similar to themselves as possible in advance.

"I must also confirm the successor before I become a Chaos God..."

Lin Qing pondered silently, "A Life-type Star God, a Void Ruler, and must also possess a Level Eleven Time Talent..."

Star Gods are already rare; requiring a Life-type Star God who also possesses a Level Eleven Time Talent makes it even harder.

If he became a Chaos God, it would be troublesome.

The requirements for the World Origin of the Shanhai World to choose a ruler would become even more exaggerated; where would he find a second Chaos God then?

Therefore, he can only select the second Lord of the Shanhai World before he becomes a Chaos God.

"I can only try my best to cultivate one..."

Lin Qing also felt a bit of pressure, and this matter could not be dragged on for too long.

Although there is no threat from the Yuan Emperor and the Great Nirvana will not come too early, it is still a matter within forty million years.

Before this, he must achieve the Chaos God state and reincarnate into the King Realm, only then can he use the King Realm to transfer part of the Universe Origin from the Void Sea, which is already nearly at its limit, thereby delaying the arrival of the Great Nirvana.

"Fortunately, the most troublesome Yuan Emperor and the Immortal-level Chaos Son have been resolved; the rest are not very difficult."

Lin Qing pondered for a long time and finalized the upcoming plan.

Three days later, Lin Qing made an agreement with the Ancestral One of the Tianyuan Seat to go together to the Time-Space Island Sacred Land, which had already lost its owner.

"As a Sacred Land, it is an independent time-space connected to only one point of the Void Sea, but just like your Shanhai World, it has actually jumped out of this space."

The Ancestral One of the Tianyuan Seat took Lin Qing directly through time and space, shifting to a deserted sea in the Western Extreme Sea of the Void Sea, and while chatting casually, forcibly opened a time-space channel.

Inside the channel, a vast and magnificent world was visible; it was indeed the Time-Space Island Sacred Land.

Lin Qing immediately flew into it together with the Ancestral One of the Tianyuan Seat at a leisurely pace.

If it were a Sacred Land with an owner, Lin Qing naturally would not dare to enter; otherwise, with the support of the Sacred Land Origin, a Transcendent Eternal Qiangzhe would be an opponent he could not possibly match.

Just like the Ancestral One of the Time-Space Island; although outside he was merely barely at the twenty-fifth layer of the Yu Xingyuan, within the Sacred Land he was at least a major level stronger.

And Lin Qing, without the support of the Shanhai World Origin, was only at the mid-to-upper level of the twenty-fourth layer of the Yu Xingyuan.

Fortunately, the Time-Space Island Sacred Land could not possibly have an owner now.

As a Sacred Land, the successor of the Lord of the Sacred Land must be a Transcendent Eternal Qiangzhe, and for the Time-Space Island Sacred Land, there was only the Ancestral One as a Transcendent Eternal Qiangzhe; now that the Ancestral One of the Time-Space Island has fallen, naturally no one can inherit this Sacred Land.

"What a vast world..."

After entering the Time-Space Island Sacred Land, Lin Qing sensed the size of this world.

A diameter of fully over ten trillion kilometers, and the suppression force is extremely strong; the energy density of high levels is also terrifyingly high. Compared to the barren universe and starry sky, the probability of high-level talents being born here is countless times greater.

Moreover, the fluctuations of Void Energy are clearer; Level Nine and Level Ten talents will definitely appear more easily.

There is even a faint, mysterious fluctuation of the Time Law.

This is the key reason why a Sacred Land can give birth to Level Eleven.

"A Sacred Land possesses a World Origin constructed by Time-Space Rules, so naturally it is much more vast."

The Ancestral One of the Tianyuan Seat smiled and said, "However, compared to a true Level Three Civilization that has transcended the universe, it is far inferior. I have heard that the small universes of Level Three Civilizations are very similar to the real universe, and they can efficiently control the universe energy density in different regions; moreover, there exist other Origin Energies different from the Main Universe, and there are many precious lands originating from the Chaos."

Looking at the Time-Space Island Sacred Land world below, Lin Qing could not help but say, "It seems I have never heard how a Level Three Civilization is born, or how one can go from a Sacred Land to a Small Universe."

Even when he became a Main God in the simulation of the future, he had never heard of the relevant method.

"I am not clear either."

The Ancestral One of the Tianyuan Seat also sighed and said, "But I know the method definitely exists within that endless Chaos; it's just... with my strength, it is already difficult to survive in the endless Chaos outside the universe, let alone stay for long, much less explore outward."

He slowly shook his head. "Perhaps, if I advance one step further, I could explore that endless Chaos... It is a pity that the Time Rule is too difficult; even though it is just a branch of the Past Rule, I have not yet perfected it, and I am also not clear on how to cultivate next."

Lin Qing pondered thoughtfully.

The Time Rule is indeed difficult, but also very powerful.

Once crossing the threshold, one can transcend the universe.

I wonder if that great existence, the Light King, has fully mastered the Future Rule?

"However, Mr. Lin Qing, your talent is outstanding, the Chaos God is within sight, and in the future you can reincarnate into the King Realm; your future is surely far beyond mine."

The Ancestral One of the Tianyuan Seat sighed softly, "The whereabouts of my daughter will trouble Mr. Lin Qing."

"It is nothing; I promised," Lin Qing shook his head slightly.

The two chatted via telepathy while flying towards the Time-Space Island Sacred Land below.

In the center of the Sacred Land is where the endless Origin converges; one can see many luxurious palace complexes built there.

Among them, one can also sense the auras of many powerful beings.

"The rebellious disciple's treasure vault is hidden within the folded spacetime deep inside that palace; he was indeed very cautious."

The Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat smiled slightly, then reached out and gently tapped the central Primordial Hall. The spacetime there began to distort violently, subsequently revealing the entrance to a massive treasure vault.

Within the palaces surrounding the Primordial Hall, many people immediately noticed this tremendous change.

"The Holy Land's treasure vault, why has it appeared automatically?" "A few days ago, the Holy Land suddenly trembled, and the Will of the World wailed in sorrow. Could it be..."

"Do not think rashly. How could the Great Primordial possibly meet with misfortune?"

"Strange... why do I always feel the density of free energy is getting lower and lower?"

The powerful ones within the various palaces below all noticed something was amiss.

"Mr. Lin Qing, should I step forward, or should you?" asked the Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat.

"I have no real deterrent power; Senior, you go ahead," said Lin Qing.

Although he possessed the strength of the twenty-fourth layer of the Yu Xingyuan and could defeat all the powerful ones of the entire Spacetime Island Holy Land single-handedly, he had no interest in carrying out a massive slaughter.

It was better for the Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat to step forward.

"Then let this old one resolve it."

The Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat said, "Why not let me send Mr. Lin Qing to the Spacetime Island treasure vault first, while I resolve these people for Mr. Lin Qing?"

"Trouble you, Senior." Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, "As for the direct disciples of the Spacetime Island Primordial who possess the eleventh-level time talent, please leave a few for me."

"Give them all to you." The Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat smiled and said, "That rebellious disciple of mine was killed by you; you avenged me for me. These rightfully belong to you. My Heavenly Origin Seat Holy Land does not lack these; Mr. Lin Qing need not be polite."

"Very well."

Lin Qing nodded, also understanding that the Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat had lived for at least several dozen eras, and even the Spacetime Island Primordial was taught by him; he was not short of treasures at all.

He was not in a hurry to enter the treasure vault; instead, he first used the bloodline treasure of the chaotic creature 'Xu Zhen' to sense, checking if there was anyone within the Spacetime Island Holy Land suitable for the Xu Zhen bloodline.

Unfortunately, there was none.

Lin Qing did not mind; he immediately activated a micro spacetime domain and directly fled into that spacetime treasure vault.

Within this sealed hidden space, it was like a vast night sky, with countless stars visible.

Lin Qing could see that these stars in the sky were treasures; however many stars there were, that was how many treasures there were.

The larger the star, the more precious the treasure it represented.

Every star was sealed by powerful energy, but the energy of this seal was not too strong; the Cosmic Limit level could easily break it.

Merely this, of course, could not stop Lin Qing.

"Come, come, come."

With a thought, Lin Qing immediately activated World God, transforming into a towering World God over one hundred thousand kilometers high, stepping on the earth with his feet and the starry sky above his head. With just one extension of his hand, he grabbed a large number of stars into his palm.

Afterwards, utilizing the endless might of his innate Cosmic Supreme Treasure, he gave a shake, causing a vast number of stars to shatter. The starlight shattered and dispersed, revealing the treasures within, which were then collected by Lin Qing.

These treasures were at the very least materials for forging Chaos Divine Artifacts, rare materials for cultivating various secret arts, a large quantity of bloodline treasures, and even precious rare treasures from outside the universe.

As Lin Qing grabbed star after star down, the treasures within brought him more and more surprises.

"A Chaos Divine Artifact again? This is already the twenty-fifth Chaos Divine Artifact!"

"A bloodline treasure of the cosmic terrifying creature 'Qi Xiang'? Can it raise the gene index up to eight hundred thousand times the cosmic standard?"

"Oh? There is also the fifth-generation bloodline god crystal of the Void God Clan?"

"These rare materials from outside the universe, I estimate, could almost upgrade a Chaos Divine Artifact to the Half-Step Cosmic Supreme Treasure level..."

"Eh? Adding these materials together, it seems I can pay off the debt of the Fog Pigeon Secret Art..."

"These tokens... are they Holy Land tokens from an even more ancient era?"

"There is actually a Half-Step Cosmic Supreme Treasure?"

Fully half a day passed before Lin Qing grabbed down all the millions of stars in the night sky; fully several million treasures were all collected.

The Shanhai Realm needs development and is precisely in need of treasures; naturally, he would not let any single one slip away.

"With these treasures, plus the time talents of the Spacetime Island Primordial's sixteen direct disciples, I should be able to cultivate an heir for myself..."

Lin Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Other things were hard to say, but as long as he found a disciple with high comprehension and a strong will, that would be enough.

By then, transferring the eleventh-level authority via the God Core, cultivating with bloodline treasures, and supplementing with various treasures, perhaps he could cultivate a gene strength of ten thousand times the cosmic standard. Would he still not be able to take down a Star God Trial?

You must know, ordinary Ultimate Star Creatures only have gene levels of a few dozen times the cosmic standard; for the powerful ones to reach a few hundred times is already very good.

Even if Star Creatures can only develop a tiny fraction of their powerful bloodline, ten thousand times is still achievable.

A gene strength of ten thousand times the cosmic standard, in the Star God Trial, would have a foundation at least one major level higher than others; in terms of strength, this would undoubtedly be the strongest.

As long as comprehension, will, and talent are also good, if he still cannot take down a Star God Trial, then Lin Qing would have nothing to say.

"Time to leave."

Lin Qing glanced at this empty expanse of treasures and immediately went out.

Outside the treasure vault, the Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat had already resolved all the troubles of the Spacetime Island Holy Land.

Visible were lifelike stone sculptures situated in various places, completely sealed by spacetime means, unable to use even a shred of power. Every single stone sculpture was clearly a high-ranking member of the Spacetime Island Holy Land.

"You are out?"

The Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat flew over with a smile. "Looks like the harvest was good?"

"Acceptable." Lin Qing nodded.

The Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat did not mind, merely glancing at this field of stone sculptures and saying, "My rebellious disciple's sixteen direct disciples are all here. They all possess the eleventh-level time talent authority, and those with the tenth level are here too. The Shanhai Realm should be able to use them, right?"

"Thank you, Senior. You have gone to trouble." Lin Qing immediately expressed his gratitude, then collected these stone sculptures.

These people possessing tenth-level talents and time talents could, in the future, be completely transferred to the geniuses and descendants of the Shanhai Realm; not a single one would be wasted.

After all, the Shanhai Realm cannot birth eleventh-level time talents, and even tenth-level talents are rare.

"It is a small matter; no need for such politeness." The Primordial of the Heavenly Origin Seat could not help but laugh.

He was a dying man who had lived for countless years and had never cared much about such treasures and benefits in the first place. Being able to trade them for Lin Qing's gratitude was what he considered the true windfall!

"Oh right."

The Founding Ancestor of Tianyuan Constellation suddenly said: "Just now I discovered a very hidden space-time nearby. My treacherous disciple hid it so tightly, yet I can still faintly sense the aura of beyond the cosmos. It might be another treasury, but I haven't opened it yet. How about we go in and take a look?"

He had also deliberately been candid to avoid being suspected by Lin Qing of secretly taking a portion of the treasures, so he intentionally left it unopened.

"Sorry for the trouble." Lin Qing gave a slight nod.
