Chapter 393: The New Duke

"Little Junior Brother, the internal world based on the Dual-Time-Space Rules is not actually that intricate or complex in structure; the key is needing sufficiently powerful World Origin to make the internal world truly stable."

"Ordinary internal worlds based on Single-Time-Space Rules only need one type of World Origin; even after evolving a universe, they still only require one Origin."

"But an internal world based on Dual-Time-Space Rules is completely different."

"It is closer to the real world, so it also requires a combination of more types of World Origin to stabilize the world."

"For instance, I collected twelve types of Fire-attribute Origin Power from the Chaos as my World Origin, which allowed my internal world to become completely stable."

"Every Duke is the same."

"Although you cultivate the Future Rules and the Present Rules, you can still start from this direction."

After visiting Eldest Senior Brother 'Dongyan Di Jun', Eldest Senior Brother very readily imparted all the key points and tricks for constructing an internal world.

Immediately after, Lin Qing visited Third Senior Brother 'Wang Jun', and Third Senior Brother directly gave the cultivation inheritance to Lin Qing.

After thanking him repeatedly, Lin Qing observed this inheritance and found that, indeed as Eldest Senior Brother described, the world structure was not particularly exquisite or mysterious; the key was that the World Origin had to be more complex and variable to withstand the changes of the two Time-Space Rules.

"So that's how it is..."

"I tried to withstand the Present Rules and Future Rules with only one type of World Origin; no wonder my deductions failed multiple times..."

Lin Qing already had many concepts and ideas in mind, but he was not in a hurry to try them.

Because he mastered the three major Time-Space Rules, which are the rules of the real world; perhaps such an internal world has other differences?

The Avatar of the Sovereign God of the Home Void Sea immediately went to the Vacuum Great Tomb to visit Her Highness Su.

"You want the cultivation insights of the Primordial Realm's generations who evolved internal worlds using Dual-Time-Space Rules?"

Her Highness Su looked at Lin Qing with some surprise. "You have only been reincarnated in the Crown King Realm for a few million years, haven't you? Why contemplate such profound scriptures so early?"

Lin Qing said no more; instead, the surrounding time and space suddenly twisted and tore, revealing a terrifying Time-Space Domain completely.

"Tearing time and space?"

Her Highness Su looked at Lin Qing in shock. "You have already mastered two Time-Space Rules?"

Normally, only Ultimate Existences can repel external time and space using their internal universe's Origin, causing time and space to tear completely.

And existences at the Duke level can also naturally repel external time and space with their own Dual-Time-Space Rules.

"Yes."

Lin Qing nodded. "However, I cultivated in the Flowing Years Hall of the Tian Guang Divine Kingdom for a billion years, so it is far more than just a few million years."

"A billion years... that is also unimaginable." Her Highness Su sighed, "Looking across the Primordial Realm, no one has been this fast; even I once took seventy billion years."

She shook her head slightly, then waved her sleeve, and a number of hexagonal, strange crystals appeared before Lin Qing.

"These are the cultivation insights left behind by the Great Sages of the Primordial Realm who mastered Dual-Time-Space Rules during their lifetimes; look through them as you wish," Her Highness Su said.

"So many?" Lin Qing exclaimed in surprise, "There are over a hundred here; does the Primordial Realm have over a hundred Great Sages of Dual-Time-Space Rules?"

The Sages of the Primordial Realm are Eternal Existences, equivalent to the Marquis of the Crown King Realm, and the Yu Tian Shen of the Immortal Realm and the Border Realm.

And the Great Sages of the Primordial Realm are figures of the Duke level, figures of the Luo Shen Jun level!

The Crown King Realm has only seven Duke-level experts in total; I heard the Immortal Realm also has dozens of Luo Shen Juns; I never expected the Primordial Realm to have so many!

"During the Primordial Realm's peak, there were even hundreds of Ultimate Existences, so naturally there were over a hundred Great Sages."

Her Highness Su said, "However, you master the Future Rules and the Present Rules; among these, only 'Wan Miao Da Sheng' achieved Great Sage status with the Future Rules and the Present Rules."

"Only one copy?" Lin Qing couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Aren't you Her Highness Su? I heard you once mastered three Time-Space Rules?"

"I did master three Time-Space Rules."

Her Highness Su shook her head slightly and said, "But I did not leave behind any cultivation insights, so here there is only the cultivation insights of Wan Miao Da Sheng."

"Why?" Lin Qing asked in confusion.

"... I don't know either." Her Highness Su fell silent for a moment before saying, "After all, I am merely an information life form created by Her Highness Su before her death based on herself; it is hard to say how much memory I inherited..."

Lin Qing suddenly felt a stir in his heart and asked, "Does Her Highness Su know why the Primordial Realm was destroyed?"

Her Highness Su looked at him and said, "The Primordial Realm was destroyed by the Old Ancestor, one of the three Ancestors of the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan."

"Then do you know why the Old Ancestor wanted to destroy the Primordial Realm?" Lin Qing asked again.

"This..."

Her Highness Su frowned slightly and said, "The Primordial Realm was an ally of the Void God Clan's side and an enemy of the Yu Xingyuan side, so it naturally became a target of the Yu Xingyuan's three Ancestors."

Lin Qing shook his head and said, "The Void God Clan and the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan have been deadlocked for so many years; the Yu Xingyuan Ancestors have never destroyed any civilization before. Why did they specifically destroy the Primordial Realm? When the Primordial Realm was destroyed, where was the Three-Generation God of the Void God Clan?"

Her Highness Su fell silent again for a moment before sighing, "I indeed have some missing memories."

Lin Qing was now certain.

It seems the information life form left by Her Highness Su does not know... the reason for the Primordial Realm's destruction might lie within Her Highness Su herself.

The key is, Her Highness Su's cultivation insights are also gone!

This further suggests that it might truly be because Her Highness Su mastered three Time-Space Rules that she became a target of the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan and even the Void God Clan!

"What secret do the three Time-Space Rules hold?"

This thought flashed through Lin Qing's mind, "A threat to both the Void God Clan and the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan?"

The Void God Clan and the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan are truly in a death match; for countless years they have fought to the death, both sides trying to win over various clan forces, yet the Three-Generation God of the Void God Clan actually tacitly allowed the Yu Xingyuan Ancestors to strike and destroy the Primordial Realm without intervening to stop them?

Moreover, not even Her Highness Su's cultivation insights were left behind!

Lin Qing suddenly understood a bit... why Her Highness Su told him back then that 'the Void God Clan is trustworthy'; because she simply does not remember the key reason the Primordial Realm was destroyed!

He even felt a chill in his heart.

The Void God Clan is the ruler of this main universe; could they even spy on the situation within the Vacuum Great Tomb?

"The Primordial Realm... I am not clear on exactly what happened..." Her Highness Su sighed, "But I do feel something is wrong..."

Lin Qing fell silent for a moment before speaking slowly, "The past is the past; now the Primordial Realm has been reborn as the Shan Hai World. The Shan Hai World... will never follow the old path of the Primordial Realm."

He waved his hand and stored away all these cultivation insights of the Primordial Realm's Great Sages.

……

Inside the Hall of Flowing Years.

Lin Qing, while summarizing and organizing the cultivation insights of the Primordial Realm Great Saints, furrowed his brow in thought about the path ahead.

"The fact that I control the Three Spatial-Temporal Rules must never be revealed…"

"I must not tell anyone."

"Not even… until absolutely necessary, I must not use the Three Spatial-Temporal Rules to transform my inner world or the level of my life."

"Once I break through, I might be discovered!"

Lin Qing took a deep breath, having already made his decision.

Unless he had the confidence to confront the Void Gods and the Yu Xingyuan Demons, he would never expose himself to even the slightest risk of exposure.

Even the mighty and ancient Primordial Realm civilization was utterly destroyed by the Yu Xingyuan Ancestor.

If he were discovered, his home world and the Rank of the Ten Kings would both be dragged down with him—then, it wouldn't just be him who died.

"It seems then… even if I one day attain the Ultimate and transform the Mountain-Sea Realm into a small universe, I cannot accomplish it alone."
