Chapter 334: Bloodline of the Primordial Chaotic Beings

At that instant, accompanied by a flood of unknown information pouring into his mind, Lin Qing felt as though, at this moment, he had once again sensed that great river representing origin and termination, as if resonating with its very rules.

"Boom—!"

Amid the soul-shaking roar of that instant, his will, which had already reached its limit, began to undergo a fundamental metamorphosis!

At this moment, he seemed to have seen through all appearances, and had already glimpsed the spacetime that represented the true.

It was like breaking free of the constraints of a two-dimensional world and entering a three-dimensional one — a subversive change!

The roar gradually faded.

Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes, sensing the changes within him, and could not help but take a deep breath.

"This is the will capable of altering spacetime? The will that truly touches the true?"

At this moment he finally understood just how terrifyingly powerful this level of will was, and could not help but feel grateful that before going to find that Demon Sovereign, he had still made thorough preparations — otherwise the outcome would have been instant death.

Even an ordinary person with an incomparably weak soul and body, once possessing such will, could crush Gaoshan with will alone!

If it were a Void Overlord, even knowing no divine techniques at all, merely relying on the power of will could suppress an ordinary Chaotic Being like the Ancestor of Tianyuan!

Ethereal and elusive will, yet able to unleash such might — its power could well be imagined.

"The second layer of Illusory World Great Annihilation can also be cultivated now."

A hint of joy appeared on Lin Qing's face. "Although I don't have the Eternal Maze Flower, nor any future rules, so the second layer can't be initiated, with will strong enough, employing the first layer will also have miraculous effects."

The illusion realm constructed by the first layer of Illusory World Great Annihilation mainly suppresses the enemy's consciousness — only when the gap is absurdly vast can it directly crush the enemy to death.

And the illusion realm constructed by the second layer of Illusory World Great Annihilation is even more wondrous; besides suppression, it also possesses the miraculous ability to form a world of its own, severing karma and consciousness connections!

In other words, even if the enemy has a clone, once enveloped by the second layer of Illusory World Great Annihilation, the connection with the clone will also be severed.

Furthermore, the illusion realm of the second layer also carries the ability to isolate karma.

"What a pity — at least one complete mastery of temporal mysteries is required, and a higher-grade Eternal Maze Flower, before the second layer can be initiated."

Lin Qing shook his head slightly, temporarily setting aside the second layer of Illusory World Great Annihilation.

The world-suppression of the first layer is sufficient for now.

High-grade Eternal Maze Flowers are controlled by the Void Divine Race — even if he wanted one, he couldn't obtain it for the time being.

"Depart."

Lin Qing immediately piloted the Abyss, once again racing at top speed toward that Final Sacred Isle.

……

Inside the Oversight Divine Hall.

"My lord, he seems to have discovered the function of the Resurrection Stone."

Supervisor Qiu stared at Lin Qing on the water screen and could not help but say, "But why, the moment he finished using it, did he head straight toward the Sacred Isle? Having merely glimpsed the River of Spacetime for that one instant — could he really have broken through?"

Breakthroughs in will, comprehension of laws, and the like are simply undetectable to outsiders.

But even high-level Chaotic Beings must frequently enter the River of Spacetime to roam and observe, and only over the long accumulation of vast ages is there any chance their will might undergo metamorphosis.

How could a being who has not transcended, having merely glimpsed the River of Spacetime for that one instant, possibly break through on the spot?

In his heart, he still could not bring himself to believe it.

"By all reason, in such a brief instant, it shouldn't amount to a breakthrough like that."

The elegant young man said slowly, "But his heading for the Sacred Isle so decisively means either he already has confidence, or he's given up."

"Given up?" Supervisor Qiu nodded slightly. "That makes sense too — anyone who discovers that with just that one instant, there's no chance unless they break through, and failure means certain doom, would probably give up."

"Let's watch and see." The elegant young man said.

As an Eternal Existence, he had also seen many disciples of Dongyan Di Jun, and had seen peerless geniuses who, before transcending, possessed a will capable of affecting the River of Spacetime.

But he had never seen any disciple of a Di Jun break through from just that one brief instant.

It was simply too preposterous.

Moreover, under such circumstances, as long as one cannot break through, failure is certain — so he naturally took it as giving up.

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

At this moment, Lin Qing on the water screen had once again arrived at the Final Sacred Isle.

……

On the small isle shrouded in mist, Lin Qing flashed, his figure weaving through like a dream, and plunged straight into the depths of the Sacred Isle.

At this moment, one could see hundreds of thousands of demons across the entire isle surging toward him like a tide — a sheer number vast enough to make nearly every survivor's blood run cold.

And from the palace at the center of the Sacred Isle, a silver-white streak of light erupted forth at terrifying speed!

"Hmph."

A trace of cold intent rose in Lin Qing's eyes, and with a mere thought, a terrifying illusory world descended abruptly, carrying an overwhelmingly terrifying pressure of will, rolling outward in all directions!

In an instant, that terrifying pressure of will had already enveloped every demon within the entire Sacred Isle.

"Boom—!"

As if an invisible roar of the illusory had exploded, in the blink of an eye everything had fallen into a near-deathly silence.

One could see that every demon across the entire Sacred Isle, save for that silver-white streak of light whose speed had suddenly slowed, lay collapsed on the ground in their hundreds of thousands, their auras extinguished at once.

Accompanied by an unceasing clatter of falling bodies, the souls of demon after demon had already dissipated.

In just an instant, hundreds of thousands of demons had been utterly slain!

The mouse formed from that silver-white streak of light also froze on the spot, staring at Lin Qing in shock, seeming already to have thoughts of retreat, and began slowly backing away.

"Haha, where do you think you're going?"

Lin Qing's feet moved, and his entire body transformed into a hazy phantom; the surrounding spacetime shifted and warped, such that his speed reached an inconceivable level.

In an instant, he had already flashed to appear before that silver-white mouse, the long blade in his hand transforming into a dazzling blade-light as he slashed straight down!

……

Inside the Oversight Divine Hall.

"Incredible..."

Director Qiu stood frozen, utterly stunned. "He... no, this Survivor Lord—his will truly broke through? In just an instant?"

"It truly broke through..." The elegant young man's eyes also held an uncontrollable look of shock.

He had not expected it at all. After all, the Ultimate Beings set their disciples' trials at extreme difficulty, especially this cruel, absurd trial—failing was perfectly normal.

He had even planned that, even if this Survivor failed the trial and could not escape the Survival World, he could still take charge of extracting the mysterious bloodline from the Demon King's body and send it away, thereby cultivating goodwill with a Dongyan Di Jun disciple.

But he never imagined... the other had actually succeeded?

"I wonder which Dongyan Di Jun's disciple is this?"

The elegant young man drew a deep breath. "Such excellence—even within my Ice-Sealed Empire, only the most outstanding disciples of Ice Emperor Your Majesty might achieve such brilliance."

Ice Emperor Your Majesty, as an Ultimate Being, even his nominal disciples generally had strong potential to achieve Eternity.

And the most outstanding disciple under Ice Emperor's gate was none other than the Ultimate Being, Emperor Jue Xian Di Jun.

As for other outstanding disciples, they were all top-tier Eternal Beings. He knew one who, even before transcending, had single-handedly slaughtered countless Chaotic Beings—his battle record was terrifying beyond measure, and now his power was unimaginably fearsome; even Emperor Jue Xian Di Jun had to seriously engage to defeat him.

And this mysterious Survivor, who had just created this miracle, filled him with equal shock and awe.

"Must seize the opportunity..."

The elegant young man's mind flashed this thought: "Someone like this, once achieving Eternity, will surely become a peak figure among Eternal Beings—and even stand a good chance of becoming an invincible force rivaling a Di Jun."

He immediately turned to Qiu, still stunned, and ordered: "Immediately prepare one thousand units of Chaotic Source Crystals."

Qiu blinked in disbelief: "One thousand units of Chaotic Source Crystals?"

In the Realm of Kings, beneath the Eternal Beings, all beings living within the Realm of Kings' universe must consume energy.

Even Chaotic Beings who transcended and entered the Infinite Chaos could not freely draw power from it—otherwise, how could they fear death from Chaotic corruption?

Thus, Chaotic Beings also needed to absorb and replenish energy within the Realm of Kings' universe to achieve immortality.

Life requires energy to sustain itself; once energy is exhausted, whether Void Beings or Chaotic Beings, death is certain!

Only Eternal Beings, whose inner worlds are perfected and whose world origins have been born, can freely draw infinite power from the Chaos—thus achieving eternal life.

Below the Eternal, all must absorb energy from the universe!

But a small universe in the Realm of Kings holds only so much energy—it cannot supply endlessly.

Beings below the Void Level, with lifespans of mere hundreds of thousands or millions of years, had negligible impact.

But from the Void Level onward, rules restrict them: unless they pay or make contributions, they cannot draw Void energy!

The Realm of Kings' cosmic rules naturally balanced energy consumption and replenishment.

Chaotic Source Crystals were the highest-grade energy replenishment crystals!

One unit of Chaotic Source Crystal could replenish a peak Chaotic Being's full energy hundreds of times over, worth millions of Cosmic Sands.

One thousand units of Chaotic Source Crystals? That was billions of Cosmic Sands!

Cosmic Sands could only be mined from the River of Time and Space—ordinary Chaotic Beings could never obtain them; only high-grade Chaotic Beings could slowly accumulate them, grain by grain.

But billions of Cosmic Sands? Even for high-grade Chaotic Beings, this was an unimaginably vast fortune!

Even many Eternal Beings would feel pain at the loss.

"My lord, are you certain about one thousand units?"

Qiu could hardly believe it—could his lord really afford to give away such a colossal fortune to a Survivor he didn't even know?

"Hmm..." The elegant young man paused, then said, "You're right. A Di Jun disciple wouldn't lack such energy-replenishing treasures—he'd likely look down on them."

The elegant young man shook his head slightly. "He possesses a primordial universe treasure. Better to gift him a Chaotic Essence capable of nurturing that treasure."

Qiu was stunned.

One thousand units of Chaotic Source Crystals were considered meager? He intended to gift a Chaotic Essence to enhance a universe treasure?

After all, the entire Wanxiang World Group possessed not a single Eternal-grade universe treasure—the materials required were so rare that Wanxiang World Group could never gather them.

"Just right..."

The elegant young man suddenly said: "A few years ago, I acquired a vial of Tianluo Zhaoguang Essence—it suits any universe treasure's growth, and won't disgrace this Di Jun disciple."

Qiu's shock deepened, but he dared not speak further.

He realized: his lord had clearly decided to cultivate goodwill with this Survivor—even this terrifyingly valuable essence was being given away.

Though he didn't understand why a being as immortal as his lord would bother courting a mere genius—even if that genius became a top-tier Eternal Being, what difference would it make?

But he knew his lord had been an Eternal Being since the dawn of the Realm of Kings, having lived for tens of billions of years—he saw far beyond Qiu.

"One vial of Tianluo Zhaoguang Essence..."

The elegant young man drew a deep breath. "Though excessively precious, only grand gifts are worth remembering! This Di Jun disciple's will technique must be the legendary Illusory World Annihilation... Should he ever achieve Eternity, he will surely become a peak existence—and even stand a chance of becoming invincible!"

His eyes glowed faintly. "Ti Yan, a mere nobody who hadn't even reached Eternity, now holds such status simply because he was on good terms with that 'Jie Junzhu'!"

"It's over."

Lin Qing looked down at the silver-white rat's corpse, immediately sealed it into the Blood-Refining Demon Box, and began refining its bloodline.

He then took out more Blood-Refining Demon Boxes, collecting the corpses of demons possessing third-generation Eternal-Frozen Ice-Flame bloodline—after all... his own third-generation Eternal-Frozen Ice-Flame bloodline was still incomplete.

After extracting each bloodline, he merged them into himself.

Soon, the third-generation Eternal-Frozen Ice-Flame bloodline was preliminarily integrated—though not yet fully fused or refined, he could complete the refinement with bloodline techniques once he left.

"Next, the second-generation."

Lin Qing stared at the bloodline crystal extracted from the Demon King's body, and suddenly felt something odd: "Huh? This bloodline's aura isn't just Eternal-Frozen Ice-Flame... Could it be... a mutated bloodline?"

Normally, Chaotic beings' bloodlines couldn't be compatible—but not absolutely.

Some naturally compatible Chaotic beings could merge their bloodlines, potentially birthing a new, mutated bloodline.

"No wonder this Demon King was stronger than expected..."

Lin Qing realized, then attempted to preliminarily integrate this bloodline into himself.

The latent power of this bloodline was extremely strong; after merging into his body, the bloodline power began to resist, but Lin Qing's current will was so strong that he could easily suppress this bloodline.

Furthermore, the soul of a life-type Chaos God was naturally adept in the area of bloodline life, so this bloodline immediately began its initial fusion.

As this bloodline gradually calmed and the fusion degree grew higher and higher, Lin Qing also set his mind at ease.

Suddenly—

"Mm?"

Just as this bloodline completely calmed and initially merged into his body, Lin Qing abruptly sensed that from deep within this bloodline, streams of information suddenly emerged, rapidly flooding into his mind!

A look of shock appeared in Lin Qing's eyes: "Bloodline inheritance memories? This, this is absolutely not the bloodline of a second-generation Chaos creature, but rather… the first generation!"
