Chapter 362: Transformation

A silver nine-layered Jin Zita, a thousand billion li high, stood tall within the spacetime of the Divine Temple. Its light shone across hundreds of millions of li, and a vast, eternal aura spread out, causing the surrounding spacetime to naturally solidify and even form boundaries resembling a world barrier.

"Truly, a set-type Eternal Supreme Treasure."

Emperor Qiongguang sighed in admiration: "The world inside your Eternal Supreme Treasure is far more vast than the internal worlds of ordinary Eternal Supreme Treasures. One alone is worth ten, or even more!"

Hearing this, Lin Qing could not help but ask: "Then if it evolves into a Pillar-level Supreme Treasure, would it be worth two Ultimate Existences?"

"How is that possible?" Emperor Qiongguang chuckled in disbelief. "Besides, when opening a small universe, at most a Pillar-level Supreme Treasure can replace one of the Ultimate Existences within it."

He shook his head and smiled. "Master said you wish to evolve your homeland into a Level Three Civilization as soon as possible, even before the next Great Silence?"

"I know it is difficult," Lin Qing nodded slightly. "But I simply wish to try."

"Very well," Emperor Qiongguang nodded. "Some things indeed must be done with all one's effort. If one does not try, only regret will remain."

He sized up Lin Qing and said, "Regardless, you must first reach the Ultimate. At that time, you can, like Master, reincarnate back to your homeland and cultivate your homeland to birth a new Ultimate Existence."

Lin Qing nodded. "I will do my best."

Your Majesty, the Light King, did exactly this in the past: first achieving the Ultimate in the Primordial Realm, then reincarnating back to his homeland.

Although Eternal Existences and Ultimate Existences are too strong in their life essence to reincarnate into the Sacred World of a Level Two Civilization, as long as that Sacred World is the homeland of an Eternal Existence or an Ultimate Existence, a mark already exists within the world's origin, so there is naturally no need to worry.

"By the way," Lin Qing suddenly said, "Can I have my family and friends reincarnate into the King Realm first to avoid the Great Silence?"

"It is possible, but the cost is also great," Emperor Qiongguang said. "This is equivalent to competing with the Main Universe for people. Even Master must consume the origin of the Divine Kingdom to accomplish this."

Lin Qing nodded slightly, understanding this point as well.

If reincarnating into the King Realm were so easy, Your Majesty, the Light King, would not have had to specially bestow the Light King Token back then to allow him to reincarnate into the King Realm.

"You are a Chaos God, which is why Master made an exception to let you reincarnate into the King Realm," Emperor Qiongguang said. "If not for this, they could have simply cultivated you to Transcendence first, then directly guided you into the King Realm, which would not have been so troublesome."

He suddenly glanced at Lin Qing and smiled. "Speaking of which, you actually originate from the Primordial Realm? In that case, the situation is not quite the same..."

"Not quite the same?" Lin Qing immediately asked. "What does Your Eminence mean by that?"

"Whether it is our King Realm or other Transcendent civilizations, the number of powerful ones who once reincarnated into the Primordial Realm was extremely large; they simply reincarnated and left the Primordial Realm later."

Emperor Qiongguang sighed. "And the world origin of your homeland should be formed by fusing a trace of the remaining Primordial Realm origin. If those powerful ones are willing to give up everything, perhaps they could reincarnate into your homeland world?"

"Oh?" Lin Qing's eyes lit up.

The Mountain and Sea Realm, or rather Earth, was originally formed from fragments of the Primordial Realm!

A homeland world cannot accept the reincarnation of external Eternal Existences or Ultimate Existences, but if one is originally a part of the homeland world, naturally there will be no rejection!

"So, Your Majesty, the Light King, can also reincarnate into my homeland?" Lin Qing suddenly said.

"... That is what it means."

Emperor Qiongguang looked at him strangely. "But Master is the Pillar of the King Realm universe. How could he reincarnate and leave the King Realm?"

Lin Qing coughed. "I was just mentioning it casually."

"In any case, the road for you to let your homeland transcend the universe is still very long," Emperor Qiongguang said. "Fortunately, you are originally a cultivator of Future Rules. If you can reach the Ultimate, you would only need to find one Ultimate Existence of Past Rules and one Ultimate Existence of Present Rules. The difficulty would not be too exaggerated."

He patted Lin Qing's shoulder. "Work hard. First achieve Eternity, then think of other things."

Lin Qing nodded slightly and immediately said gratefully, "Thank you, Your Eminence, for your guidance."

Emperor Qiongguang smiled, then glanced at the Jin Zita-shaped Eternal Supreme Treasure above, and sighed, "With such an Eternal Supreme Treasure, if you can achieve Eternity in the future, you will at least be a peak figure among Eternal Existences. As long as you are willing to put out some resources, cultivating your relatives and friends to Transcendence is not difficult."

Lin Qing nodded.

Forcing a Void-level cultivator with ordinary talent and comprehension to Transcendence carries a cost so great that even high-level Chaos Lifeforms dare not even think of it.

Even an ordinary Eternal Existence would feel the pain.

But for a peak figure among Eternal Existences, as long as the quantity is not too exaggerated, it is affordable.

And the key... lies in the Eternal Supreme Treasure.

"Return."

With a wave of his hand, the towering nine-layered Jin Zita standing in the sky above shrank rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it returned to the size of a palm and transformed into a stream of light, vanishing into his internal world.

That boundless power, like a complete world, was completely hidden within his internal world. At his current realm, he could only mobilize a tiny fraction of it.

He must at least create a combined Divine Technique containing complete spacetime rules to truly mobilize its power.

After all, the interior of an Eternal Supreme Treasure also contains complete spacetime rules.

"The Supreme Treasure is complete. You should leave now."

Emperor Qiongguang smiled. "I hope that when we meet again, you will have become my true junior brother."

"Thank you, Your Eminence," Lin Qing said gratefully.

"Go."

Emperor Qiongguang waved his sleeve. A mighty force, as if the universe were inhaling, swept out, sending Lin Qing into the River of Spacetime. Carrying him, it propelled him at extreme speed through the River of Spacetime for an unknown distance before gradually stopping.

When Lin Qing felt the Emperor's power dissipate, he discovered he had returned to the territory of the Frozen Empire, quite close to Star Refining Prefecture.

"One wave of the sleeve, and in the blink of an eye, you sent me here?" Lin Qing was stunned.

When he rushed from Star Refining Prefecture to the Glorious Divine Temple back then, even via the River of Spacetime, it took a full several months!

Yet an Ultimate Existence, with merely one wave of the sleeve, made him traverse such a vast distance in the blink of an eye?

The gap is so great it is hard to imagine.

"First, return to Star Refining Xianlian Shengxing."

After confirming his direction within the River of Spacetime, Lin Qing immediately began rushing toward Star Refining Xianlian Shengxing.

This place is not far from Star Refining Prefecture; via the River of Spacetime, it should take only a few days to arrive.

"By the way, let me try how much power of the Eternal Supreme Treasure can be mobilized within the River of Spacetime."

Lin Qing immediately attempted to mobilize the Eternal Supreme Treasure within his internal world. As a towering, silver-white nine-layered Jin Zita phantom appeared, in an instant, the pressure and obstruction of the surrounding river water were reduced by a thousand or ten thousand times!

In an instant—

"Whoosh!"

Lin Qing felt that his efficiency in traveling within the River of Spacetime was now over a hundred times higher than before; the speed was astonishing.

Just twenty minutes later, the colossal Star Refining Xianlian Shengxing appeared before his eyes.

"So fast!"

Lin Qing revealed a look of joy. "It is said that an Eternal Being can reach any location in the Realm of the Kings in just a short while. Although I cannot compare to an Eternal Being, among the High Chaos Creatures, there should be few faster than me..."

Even the peak experts among the Chaos Creatures would take several days to cross the entire Star Refining Continent, far slower than his current travel speed.

This was not purely an advantage in speed.

Rather, it was because the power of the Eternal Treasure greatly weakened the oppression and obstruction of the River of Time and Space; a simple increase in speed was not that exaggerated.
