Chapter 369
"How about it?"
"Our human civilization only needs one-fifth of the Aurora; this isn't too much to ask."
The strongest one Gu Li spoke calmly, but within this twisted space-time, the aura of the other eight strongest ones was unmistakably present.
The other more than ten strongest ones glanced at each other.
Behind them also stood other ultimate beings, but the nine strongest ones from human civilization were indeed difficult to deal with.
"Fine."
The strongest one with a single horn finally compromised.
There was no other choice.
If they didn't first satisfy the demands of human civilization, the subsequent division of the spoils couldn't proceed.
Swoosh.
The strongest one Gu Li raised his hand and took one-fifth of the Aurora, then disappeared from this space-time.
Once Gu Li left, the auras of the eight strongest ones from human civilization quickly withdrew as well.
"The Tianyu Clan also suffered heavy losses," the ancestor of the Tianyu Clan slowly spoke, attempting to replicate human civilization's earlier actions by claiming a portion of the Aurora first.
In the domain of human civilization.
The minds and wills of the nine strongest ones rapidly communicated.
"This segment of Aurora contains a deep power of causal curse and killing. Before refining it into an ultimate weapon, we could let those talented evolvers comprehend it for a while."
"Indeed, although the law of causality isn't a pillar law, it is one of the most mysterious and unique laws. The more one understands it, the more benefits there are."
"Then let me be the one to refine this segment of Aurora."
The nine strongest ones quickly decided on the use of the Aurora.
Refine it into an ultimate weapon.
However, before refining, they could allow some of the talented younger generation from human civilization to experience the essence of the Aurora up close.
In the personal world of the strongest one, Xia Qin.
Xia Qin sat high on his throne, as if pondering something.
After a while.
Lin Yuan appeared.
"Strongest one," Lin Yuan bowed slightly.
The more Lin Yuan cultivated, the more he felt the greatness of the strongest ones.
This greatness far exceeded mere strength; their very essence of life, the height at which they existed, was beyond the comprehension of beings bound to the river of time.
"How have your recent cultivation efforts been? Have you encountered any bottlenecks?" Xia Qin asked with concern.
Xia Qin cared deeply for Lin Yuan because, in his eyes, Lin Yuan was the most likely evolver of this era in human civilization to reach the ultimate level.
If human civilization could produce a tenth strongest one, the pressure they bore would naturally lessen.
"Everything is going well," Lin Yuan nodded.
"Going well" was an understatement.
Fifty years ago, Lin Yuan had only comprehended two types of pillar-level fusion laws.
But now, Lin Yuan had mastered six types of pillar-level fusion laws, among which the laws of life and death reincarnation had reached the second realm, and the great destruction law was also nearing the second realm.
Achievements that ordinary tenth-rank evolvers couldn't attain in tens of millions of years, Lin Yuan had accomplished in just fifty years.
Moreover, aside from comprehending fusion laws, Lin Yuan had made significant progress in the laws of space, time, and the three protective secret arts of the Mysterious Emperor lineage.
"As long as things are going well."
Xia Qin did not inquire further.
The path of evolution was an extremely personal matter.
With Lin Yuan's talent and aptitude, he had already forged his own path.
If Xia Qin were to intervene forcefully, it would not be a good thing.
What Xia Qin could do now was to solve any worries Lin Yuan might have.
However.
Lin Yuan had never heard of the existence of a perfect time lifeform.
Even His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign and the master of the Devil Jade Tower are far from being perfect time lifeforms; they are simply much stronger than most twelfth-rank ultimate beings.
"The chaotic void holds great opportunities, but unfortunately, we lifeforms within the universe, even at the twelfth rank, cannot leave," Xia Qin, the strongest one, sighed, as if thinking of something.
"Cannot leave?"
Lin Yuan was puzzled.
The permanent space rift is right there.
Why can't they leave?
"The universe has its own will. Beings like us at the twelfth rank have consumed an enormous amount of cosmic energy. If we try to break free and enter the chaotic void, we will inevitably be met with the universe's will, which will do everything to stop us," Xia Qin explained.
"I see."
Lin Yuan immediately understood.
"So, the only way for us to enter the chaotic void is to wait until the end of this cosmic epoch, when all things perish," Xia Qin said, his tone carrying a hint of emotion.
It was clear that the situation wasn't as simple as he made it seem.
When the cosmic epoch ends and all things collapse, the strongest ones must survive to completely break free from the universe's constraints.
If they cannot survive, they will naturally perish along with the universe.
However, the universe will be reborn after its destruction, but the strongest ones do not have that capability.
If a strongest one perishes along with the universe, everything they are will be reduced to the most chaotic force, supporting the birth of the next cosmic epoch.
Normally, among ten twelfth-rank ultimate beings, at most half would survive the end of a cosmic epoch.
Only the twelfth-rank ultimate beings who survive the end of the cosmic epoch have the confidence to venture into the chaotic void.
After leaving the strongest one's personal world.
Lin Yuan's thoughts were slightly stirred.
From Xia Qin he had learned much about higher-level information.
For example, the nine great perilous places of the chaotic void? Or the limitations the strongest ones face within the universe?
"These things are still too far away from me."
Lin Yuan thought for a while, then stopped dwelling on it.
He was only at the tenth rank now, still a long way from the twelfth rank.
And the end of the cosmic epoch? According to Xia Qin only one-tenth of this cosmic epoch had passed since the universe's birth.
This meant that there were still nine-tenths of a cosmic epoch left, which would last more than trillions of years.
So far, Lin Yuan had spent less than two hundred years in the main universe.
Meanwhile.
Outside the universe where Lin Yuan was located.
In the chaotic void filled with gray mist.
A 'white paper' was speeding in a certain direction.
Upon closer inspection, one would find that this 'white paper' seemed to lack the concept of 'thickness,' having only length and width.
Within the 'white paper,' mist filled the space, vaguely encompassing a vast world.
The entire 'white paper' resembled a painting scroll, graceful and mysterious.
However, what was unimaginable was that...
Wherever the 'white paper' passed, the space in the chaotic void began to collapse slightly, quickly losing the concept of spatial thickness, and even time became extremely compressed, as if suddenly dropping from three dimensions to two dimensions.
Swoosh.
In an instant.
The 'white paper' vanished into the dense chaotic airflow.
