Chapter 387: Half-Step Ultimate!

"The God of No Cause wishes to ask a favor of you."

The Light King said, "He once borrowed a Chaos Rare Treasure from the Primordial Realm, named the 'Spring and Autumn Register'. He knows you are a successor of the Primordial Realm and has seen your potential. He knows that after you achieve the Ultimate, you might seek him out to reclaim this Chaos Rare Treasure. Therefore, his condition is... you must not reclaim the Spring and Autumn Register before you establish a Divine Domain."

"A Chaos Rare Treasure, the Spring and Autumn Register?" Lin Qing pondered thoughtfully.

The various rare treasures he had previously collected belonged to treasures born within the universe, relying on universal laws to exist. Although they possessed various unique divine abilities, they were only useful within the universe.

But Chaos Rare Treasures are treasures born within the Chaos, usable anywhere, and are countless times more precious.

Even the most ordinary Chaos Rare Treasure is something only an Eternal Existence can afford.

Those precious Chaos Rare Treasures are even desired intensely by the Lords of Divine Domains.

The 'Spring and Autumn Register' is undoubtedly such a Chaos Rare Treasure.

It is said that in the era of the Ancient Universe, before the system of divine offices and the existence of the Universe's Supreme Treasures, the external objects used to increase strength were Chaos Rare Treasures.

"If you are willing, the God of No Cause agrees to teach you the 'No Cause, No Effect'."

The Light King said, "Furthermore, the God of No Cause can also accept your fellow townsman 'Qi Lingxiao' as his personal disciple."

"Qi Lingxiao?" Lin Qing was slightly stunned, "The God of No Cause wants to take the Hall Master Qi as a disciple?"

"That old thief is very cunning," the Light King chuckled lowly. "I think this old thief already saw the special nature of your fellow townsman and originally wanted to take a disciple; now he is just going with the flow."

"Hall Master Qi is indeed quite special," Lin Qing couldn't help but ask, "Does Master know the situation of Hall Master Qi?"

He had witnessed the growth and miracles of Hall Master Qi all along the way.

Simply put, Qi Lingxiao is a child of fate by nature. As his strength grew stronger, his luck also became stronger. He could obtain a Level Three Civilization inheritance just by adventuring casually, which is simply unimaginable.

"The specifics are unclear."

The Light King nodded slightly and said, "But he seems to be favored by the Endless Chaos."

"Favored by the Endless Chaos?" Lin Qing was slightly stunned.

"Normally, the Endless Chaos does not favor any living being. We, living beings born in the universe, can at most receive the favor of the Universal Will, so luck has a limit."

The Light King said, "But within the Endless Chaos, there are always some special exceptions. For instance, certain extremely rare Chaos creatures are naturally favored by the Endless Chaos, possessing terrifying luck. Even in their weak infant state, not even an Ultimate Existence can kill them, and Chaos Lords would pay great attention to them."

Lin Qing was taken aback.

In the infant stage, not even an Ultimate Existence can kill them?

When he was in the Void Sea, he had also heard of some naturally great-fated individuals who, even when encountering top-tier experts of the Void Sea wiping out their entire sect, would escape alive due to various coincidences.

But what level is an Ultimate Existence?

Creating the world with a snap of the fingers, destroying heaven and earth with a single thought, possessing boundless power within their body like a universe. Such a great existence, yet still unable to be killed due to a coincidence?

It is simply unimaginable.

"But Qi Lingxiao is human."

Lin Qing couldn't help but say, "I knew him during the Planet Civilization era. He was lucky from the very beginning and never had the form of such a Chaos creature."

"Your fellow townsman must be a reincarnator," the Light King said softly. "Before reincarnating, he was at least an Eternal Existence of extremely high status in some civilization, or more likely an Ultimate Existence. Perhaps... he discovered the Primordial Realm had revived again, so he abandoned everything and reincarnated into the newborn Primordial Realm where the Planet Civilization had just evolved?"

Lin Qing understood his Master's meaning.

According to reason, Eternal Existences and Ultimate Existences cannot reincarnate into civilizations within the Main Universe, but the Shanhai Realm, or rather Earth, is different.

Earth is essentially formed from a trace of the original source remaining after the Primordial Realm perished, which is why there are those Primordial Realm ruins on Earth.

It can be said this way—Earth is the newborn Primordial Realm.

Therefore, although the Primordial Realm perished, there were many subjects from other realms who had previously reincarnated into the Primordial Realm. They all left traces in the source of the Primordial Realm, equivalent to natives of the Primordial Realm, so naturally they can also reincarnate back into the newborn Primordial Realm.

Just as the Light King himself reincarnated into the Primordial Realm in the past, achieved the Ultimate, and then abandoned everything to reincarnate back to his home civilization within the Main Universe.

"However, Hall Master Qi has no memories," Lin Qing said.

As long as there is a will of the True Transformation level, in theory, one should be able to retain memories during reincarnation.

"It is indeed a bit strange," the Light King nodded. "However, since he was willing to abandon everything to reincarnate into the extremely weak newborn Primordial Realm, perhaps his relationship with the Primordial Realm is extraordinary."

Lin Qing nodded slowly and added, "Didn't Master also abandon everything, including the position of Ultimate, for the sake of his home?"

Achieving the Ultimate, besides one's own basic conditions, the most important thing is the position of Ultimate bestowed by the Endless Chaos!

This is the opportunity for breakthrough.

This is also the key reason why Ultimate Existences dare not reincarnate to cultivate again. Once the position of Ultimate is abandoned, who knows if there will be a chance to obtain a new position of Ultimate after reincarnation?

"I had the confidence to obtain a new position of Ultimate before doing so."

The Light King smiled. "Although the Endless Chaos limits the number of positions of Ultimate, the number of Ultimate Existences who cultivate the Future Rules is too small. So we, Ultimate Existences who cultivate the Future Rules, as long as we master the method of creating a universe, also meet the conditions, and the probability of obtaining a position of Ultimate is quite high."

Lin Qing understood.

So that is how it is?

No wonder Master achieved the Ultimate after cultivating for only eighteen billion years.

"The God of No Cause must have also seen the special nature of your fellow townsman."

The Light King said, "That old thief is very shrewd. Accepting such a disciple of extraordinary origin and being able to use the Spring and Autumn Register for a longer time, how could he not be willing?"

"Then what does Master think we should do?" Lin Qing asked sincerely.

"Agree to him," the Light King said. "The God of No Cause is, like me, a Lord of a Divine Domain who cultivates the Future Rules. His status in the Lin Yuan Realm is only lower than that Lord of the Universe in the Lin Yuan Realm, not inferior at all to those Lords of Divine Domains of the Dual Time-Space. Your fellow townsman becoming his disciple is not bad."

Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, "Disciple will listen to Master."

"Don't rush yet," the Light King smiled. "Since I have figured this out for you, naturally I cannot watch you suffer a loss, letting that old thief take advantage of you in two ways. If you trust me, I will negotiate for some more benefits for you."

"Disciple naturally trusts you," Lin Qing said immediately.

"Then you just wait," the Light King smiled slightly.

Lin Qing nodded.

"Let's talk about your cultivation from now on."

The Light King said, "Besides the Current Time-Space Rules, you can also ponder more on the method of creating a universe. Of course, if you want to walk the path of Dual Time-Space Rules, you must base the method of creating a universe on the Dual Time-Space Rules. Only then, after you achieve the Ultimate, can you create a universe within your body with Dual Time-Space Rules."

He reached out and patted Lin Qing's shoulder. "The path of Dual Time-Space Rules is indeed extremely difficult. If you find it impossible to walk, giving up is nothing. Achieving the Ultimate earlier, we who cultivate the Future Rules have extraordinary status, and after achieving the Ultimate, we are the most likely to create Level Three Civilizations."

Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, "Yes, Master."

"To ponder the method of universe creation, one must first understand the universe's evolution model and structural theory."

Light King said, "I have already granted you permission to view the Realm of the Kings. You may go to the 'Universe Heart Palace' to observe the model and structure of the entire universe, constantly contemplating the universe's evolution."

Lin Qing nodded and said, "I understand, Master."

"As a future rules cultivator, the ultimate position is not difficult for you." Light King sighed, "But the hardest part is deducing the method of universe creation, especially for a universe with dual-time-space rules. To deduce a perfect method of creation is incredibly difficult."

"Take Yu Gong, for instance. He has cultivated longer than I have. He has surely missed the ultimate position more than once, yet he has never been able to research the method of universe creation for a dual-time-space rules universe."

Light King sneered and added, "In this regard, you can ask your eldest senior brother and second senior brother; they both achieved the ultimate position with dual-time-space rules."

Lin Qing nodded in realization.

"In any case, be more patient."

Light King added, "As for the treasures in the Treasure Hall, if you have an urgent need, you may use them directly; afterwards, simply compensate according to their value."

Lin Qing thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Master, this disciple has a request."

"Speak." Light King said casually.

"This disciple is worried that Yu Gong will destroy this disciple's homeland, just as this disciple saw in the future. Therefore, could you trouble yourself to ask a powerful expert to guard the Shanhai Realm for this disciple?" Lin Qing said, "This disciple can bear the cost incurred."

As he spoke, he flipped his hand and produced a storage treasure—inside it were the spoils obtained from annihilating Marquis Cang Ye and Marquis Yan Tian this time.

"I do not know if it is enough." Lin Qing handed the storage treasure to Light King. "If it is not enough, this disciple will find a way to gather more."

Light King glanced at it and smiled, "To invite an expert capable of resisting Yu Gong, one must possess power comparable to an Ultimate Existence. At this level, among Duke-level experts, they are considered outstanding elites. For example... Lord Luo Shen of the Lin Yuan Realm. She once fought a Divine King of the Lin Yuan Realm for several days, resulting in a stalemate."
