535: A monster of talent, even if you die, you will have no regrets! (52k words)

Ziyun, Kong Shan Yu, and the others exchanged glances, all somewhat startled by Lin Yang's words.

"High-Dimensional Universe..."

"Never heard of it!"

Everyone was shocked and shook their heads one after another.

Kong Shan Yu hurriedly said, "Your Excellency Lin Yang, are you certain it is a High-Dimensional Universe, and not simply those two clans using some internal secret technique to still contact some of their clansmen in the Endless Spacetime?"

Although Song Qingfeng had previously said that the Ten Thousand Universes side had also been disconnected from the Endless Spacetime for three generations.

However, the alien side also had a Time-Space Turbulence Zone, and some races possessed exclusive secret techniques; they might still be able to establish contact with some of their ancestors in the Endless Spacetime at specific times or under specific circumstances.

And this would certainly be a secret, not something they would reveal. Thus, Kong Shan Yu speculated as such.

"The existence behind the Mingye Clan and the Lingyou Clan is a Lord-level life form from a High-Dimensional Universe."

Lin Yang shook his head, "I have even spoken with that Lord-level existence."

"Ah?"

Kong Shan Yu and the others were even more shocked, looking at each other as they said, "Your Excellency Lin Yang, you have even spoken with the other party?"

"Can that Lord-level existence descend here?"

Their expressions were very grave.

They had all been disconnected from the Endless Spacetime, yet now there was a so-called High-Dimensional Universe life form that could descend within the Ten Thousand Universes.

This was shocking news.

Lin Yang nodded slightly and briefly told them about the situation in the ruins that day.

This caused Ziyun, Kong Shan Yu, and the others to fall silent.

A moment later, Ziyun said in a deep voice, "So, the High-Dimensional Universe might truly exist, and it is not the same type of place as the various spacetime regions connected to the Endless Spacetime?"

"This..."

He didn't know what to say. To be precise, he was suddenly at a loss for words.

The complexity of this world was beginning to far exceed their imagination.

"We cannot confirm this for the time being. It is still unclear whether that High-Dimensional Universe is just one of the high-level spacetime regions connected to the Endless Spacetime," Lin Yang said slowly.

The concept of the High-Dimensional Universe was proposed by the System at the time.

Even now, he still could not unlock related information.

He could only speculate as such for the time being.

Kong Shan Yu then said, "Regardless of what kind of place it is, the fact that it can still descend into the Universe Zone despite being disconnected from the Endless Spacetime, and can even teach relevant technologies to the Mingye Clan and the Lingyou Clan, is enough to prove that the other party and the spacetime where they reside are extraordinary. We must treat this with the utmost seriousness."

Pan Tian's eyes condensed with killing intent, "Then we should even more so go and kill the Old Ancestors of the Mingye Clan and the Lingyou Clan first! Try our best to avoid uncontrollable accidents from happening."

"Yes, that is what we should do!" Chen Lu also said.

Then, the others looked at Lin Yang, "Your Excellency Lin Yang, the severity of the matter is far beyond what can be estimated, so let's go and kill as many of the Old Ancestors of those two clans as we can!"

Hearing this, Lin Yang pondered for a moment and nodded, "Very well, then I will trouble you all. If you cannot capture them alive, then kill them on the spot!"

Capturing an Old Ancestor-level powerhouse alive was harder than killing one.

Although killing an Old Ancestor-level powerhouse could yield a large amount of national treasure value, compared to the risk of the Mingye Clan and Lingyou Clan Old Ancestors causing more uncontrollable accidents if left alive, earning a little less national treasure value was acceptable.

"Haha, Your Excellency Lin Yang, rest assured, we will try our best to keep them alive and hand them over for you to kill!"

Ziyun laughed, then added, "Your Excellency Lin Yang, although we didn't burn our spiritual power just now, we are slightly tired and depleted from the battle. Use your unique life-characteristic power to heal us, accelerating our recovery time. Once we have rested a little, we can go and kill them."

He had experienced the healing effects of Lin Yang's special life force; it could not only heal wounds but also nourish one's mental state.

After a great battle, letting Lin Yang heal them would quickly make them full of life and energy again.

"Alright."

Lin Yang nodded, then condensed his life-characteristic power and injected it into each of them, Ziyun and the others.

A moment later, the healing ended.

"Your Excellency Lin Yang, your life-characteristic power is truly amazing!"

Kong Shan Yu and the others exclaimed once more, then added, "We will go and hunt down the Old Ancestors of the Mingye Clan and the Lingyou Clan now. After Tea Banquet finishes, if he has the spare energy, Your Excellency Lin Yang, please ask him to support us as well. With Tea Banquet's support, the chances of capturing those Old Ancestors alive will be much higher."

After saying this, the group departed, breaking through the air one after another.

Lin Yang sighed slightly. Ziyun and the others had truly helped him too much.

Immediately, he looked at the area where Tea Banquet and Fang Jibai were fighting, waiting for the outcome of their peak duel.

At the same time, he asked the System, "I can use that Space-Time Signal Beacon from within the Source Star to go directly into that Time-Space Turbulence Zone, right?"

He hadn't had time to communicate with the System when he previously told Song Qingfeng and the others about the other Time-Space Turbulence Zone within the Source Star.

Now, he needed to confirm if he could go in directly. If not, he would have to find another way.

"Host, by using the Space-Time Signal Beacon, you can indeed go directly to that Time-Space Turbulence Zone, but you need to be close to the Source Star and pay a one-time directional teleportation fee."

"...How much?" Lin Yang couldn't even be bothered to speak.

This damn System, it really couldn't do anything without charging a fee.

"Answering the Host, using the Space-Time Signal Beacon for a single directional teleportation costs 30 million national treasure value."

"...So expensive!" Lin Yang complained.

Although he currently possessed over 50 billion in national treasure value, he still had to keep 50 billion to unlock the Ten Thousand Realms Spirit Flash.

These 50 billion could basically be considered outside the scope of use.

After excluding these 50 billion, there wasn't much left.

30 million for one teleportation was indeed not cheap!

"Host, if the Space-Time Signal Beacon connects to an existence in the Endless Spacetime and you are in the outside world, you can enter and connect with it for free during that time." The System replied again.

"Uh..." Lin Yang was stunned for a moment, then said, "You mean, if I want to go in and happen to encounter the Space-Time Signal Beacon connecting to a life form in the Endless Spacetime, then I can enter once for free?"

"Yes, Host."

"...Fine, better than nothing." Lin Yang sighed.

Wanting it to be that coincidental was too much of a gamble.

The only benefit was that if it did connect to an existence in the Endless Spacetime, he wouldn't need to spend extra national treasure value to go in and observe the situation.

But as for connecting... who knows when it would successfully connect once.

He was also quite curious about what the situation would be like after a successful connection.

"By the way..." Lin Yang wanted to ask a few more questions, but the battle between Tea Banquet and Fang Jibai suddenly ended.

With a swoosh, Tea Banquet appeared in front of Lin Yang.

"Your Excellency Tea Banquet, are you alright?"

Lin Yang was startled at first, then immediately continued, "Let me heal you first."

At this moment, Tea Banquet's state did not look very good.

His aura was chaotic, his robes were damaged, and there were many visible external injuries.

"Your Excellency Lin Yang, I'm fine. Although I look a bit terrible, it actually doesn't have much of an impact!"

Tea Banquet laughed loudly, his eyes even brighter, "I have gained a lot from this battle. These are just minor external injuries and are not worth mentioning. You don't need to worry, Your Excellency Lin Yang."

Lin Yang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!"

"It's just a pity that I let that person run away. My accumulation is still lacking compared to his, so I couldn't keep him."

Tea Banquet said, somewhat ashamed, while accepting the healing of Lin Yang's life-characteristic power, "I'm really sorry, Your Excellency Lin Yang."

Lin Yang immediately said solemnly, "Your Excellency Tea Banquet, please don't say that. I am too grateful to you. If it weren't for you dealing with Fang Jibai, I'm afraid we would have had a hard time ending today well."

"Haha, Your Excellency Lin Yang is too polite. You have helped us so much on the Ten Thousand Realms Universe side, and we should also thank you."

Tea Banquet laughed loudly again, "And about today, if I really have to thank someone, it should be me thanking you, Your Excellency Lin Yang, for finding me such a good opponent. I have a premonition that my spiritual supernatural power techniques should be able to improve further."

"By then, even if my accumulation is insufficient, relying on the power of my supernatural techniques, I should be on par with a Limit Old Ancestor."

Tea Banquet's gaze was burning.

He had gained a lot from this battle.

It was also a bit beyond his estimation.

Hearing this, Lin Yang couldn't help but say with pleasant surprise, "That is truly great news! Let me congratulate you first, Your Excellency Tea Banquet!"

Insufficient accumulation, yet able to be on par with a Limit Old Ancestor relying on the power of supernatural techniques; Tea Banquet's comprehension made Lin Yang both shocked and delighted.

This was definitely a talent freak!

"I'll take your kind words, Your Excellency Lin Yang!"

Tea Banquet sighed with emotion, "However, such a huge gain only happens this once. Since I promoted to a third-level Old Ancestor, I haven't fought in such an open, one-on-one state, nor have I had insights during the process of battle."

"This is the accumulation of thousands of years erupting all at once, which is why there could be such a great harvest. It will be impossible to have such a significant improvement through major battles in the future."

Lin Yang nodded: "Even so, it is still a joyous occasion."

"Haha, it really surprised me as well. Now, I only lack some accumulation. Once the accumulation is sufficient, I estimate my power will be able to surpass the category of the limit Old Ancestor."

Tea Banquet sighed with infinite emotion: "Perhaps, I can also catch a glimpse of the realm above the Old Ancestor, and maybe I could even become the first third-level Old Ancestor in the Ten Thousand Realms Universe to reach the limit in dozens of eras, and then enter the Endless Spacetime to follow in the footsteps of our predecessors!"

"Ah? Your Excellency Tea Banquet, you want to enter the Endless Spacetime??" Lin Yang was surprised again.

"Yes!"

Tea Banquet nodded, an indescribable gleam flickering in his eyes.

The Ten Thousand Realms Universe has had a gap in generations for too long; everyone wants to know the reason why.

If there is a chance, Tea Banquet really wants to go to the Endless Spacetime to investigate the reason for the loss of contact back then.

Furthermore, this gap in generations has lasted so long that people no longer have any understanding of the realm above the Old Ancestor.

He also wants to personally catch a glimpse of the mysteries of that higher level.

But for dozens of eras, the human race in the Ten Thousand Realms Universe has been fighting against alien races, and no Old Ancestor has had the opportunity to reach the limit level.

The human Old Ancestors of many eras have spent their entire lives fighting against alien races, and only when their lifespans reached their limit would they enter the Endless Spacetime to make a final attempt.

But as one can imagine, an elderly Old Ancestor does not have enough accumulation, making it difficult to have more opportunities and possibilities in the Endless Spacetime.

As for him, thanks to Lin Yang's previous help, he eliminated many Alien Race Old Ancestors in the Ten Thousand Realms Universe, leaving humanity with no more pressure.

He has become the first Old Ancestor in the Ten Thousand Realms Universe in these dozens of eras to have the opportunity to reach the limit level.

Once the accumulation is sufficient, Tea Banquet will enter the Endless Spacetime without hesitation.

"Your Excellency Tea Banquet, entering the Endless Spacetime might mean never coming back," Lin Yang said in a low voice.

He didn't know what to say to Tea Banquet, nor was it appropriate to dissuade him, so he could only use this sentence to remind Tea Banquet to think it over carefully.

After all, he could also understand Tea Banquet's feelings.

As the only existence in the current era of the Ten Thousand Realms Universe who has the chance to step into the limit Old Ancestor Realm.

He would have more responsibilities on his shoulders.

Protecting the entire human race is a responsibility.

Carrying the hopes and expectations of everyone to enter the Endless Spacetime to explore the predecessors and pass on the mysteries above the Old Ancestor is also a responsibility.

Regardless of which one he chooses, Lin Yang cannot say much.

Tea Banquet smiled: "The worst result is nothing more than death."

"And death is the thing I fear the least."

"For every human in our Ten Thousand Realms Universe, in the years of fighting against alien races, every extra day lived is a gain; death is just the most insignificant trifle."

"Compared to death, we are more afraid of not seeing a future and hope!"

Tea Banquet's eyes were bright: "To have the opportunity to explore the mysteries of a higher level and follow the path that our predecessors have walked, in this process, even death is without regret!"

Lin Yang was silent.

Seeing this, Tea Banquet couldn't help but smile: "Haha, alright, let's not talk about this for now. I will need quite a few years to reach the accumulation for the limit level. For now, I will go help Ziyun and the others capture the Old Ancestors of the Mingye Clan and the Lingyou Clan."

"Alright."

Lin Yang responded, then immediately returned to Blue Star.

To be precise, Tiangong Base.

On Blue Star, during the two days of the Lunar New Year's Eve, he had met everyone he needed to meet and made some arrangements, so he was not in a hurry to return immediately.

Instead, he wanted to check the situation at the Tiangong Base on the moon.

Cang Miao was no longer inside Tiangong Base.

Back then, after his uncle assisted at the entrance of Source Star, with the consent of the White Fatty Old Man, Cang Miao was taken back to the clan for training.

Nowadays, only Butler One and some Robots remained in Tiangong Base.

Of course, there are other cities and bases built by the country on the moon now, but the area around Tiangong Base still remains as it was.

"Commander, you have returned."

Butler One greeted him just as it had a hundred years ago.

This familiar form of address made Lin Yang sigh with emotion again.

Immediately, he waved his hand, and some special materials appeared: "Butler One, I once promised you back then that I would upgrade you. Unfortunately, some accidents happened, delaying it for so long, but now it is finally possible."

He had promised Butler One back then that he would upgrade it inside and out, including upgrading its robotic body materials and its artificial intelligence System.

He had never forgotten this matter.

As his first partner.

Yes, partner.

In Lin Yang's heart, Butler One and the Robots in Tiangong Base had a different significance to him.

They appeared when he was at his weakest and served him.

Although Butler One and Tiangong Base could no longer provide him with any help in any aspect now.

Lin Yang still had not forgotten his promise from back then.

He wanted to upgrade Butler One and the entire Tiangong Base.

A human-like dullness appeared on Butler One's robotic face; it clearly did not expect that Lin Yang would still remember a casual remark from back then and actually come to fulfill the promise for it.

At this moment, in Butler One's intelligent System, something indescribable suddenly appeared.

And that thing was called: emotion.

"Commander, thank you for your concern and remembrance. However, I can no longer be of any help to you, Commander. It would be better not to waste these precious materials on me." Butler One bowed deeply.

There was also some human-like sadness in its words.

It was only a technological product of a Level 3 civilization; even if upgraded, it could not be of any help to the now powerful Lin Yang.

It did not want to waste these resources.

"Butler One, I said I would upgrade you, and I will definitely do it, regardless of whether you can continue to serve me!"

However, Lin Yang shook his head, and for the first time after a hundred years, issued a mandatory order to Butler One: "Now, I, as the Commander of Tiangong Base, order you to accept the modification and upgrade."

"After the modification and upgrade, go to Blue Star and continue to serve my mother and family!"

Butler One was clearly stunned again, but immediately followed with: "Yes, Commander, Butler One will thoroughly execute your order!"

Lin Yang nodded with satisfaction, then said to the System: "System, you first complete the intelligent upgrade for it. The robotic material upgrade can be left to Butler One to do itself later."

Upgrading Butler One's robotic body was not difficult; as long as there were materials, Butler One could dismantle any part of itself for replacement at any time.

The main thing was that the upgrade of the intelligent System needed to rely on the System to complete.

As for upgrading Tiangong Base, it was even simpler; he would take out the materials, and after Butler One finished upgrading itself, it could direct the other Robots to do the work.

"Understood, Host. The System has begun to upgrade it. The process will last for thirty seconds. This upgrade service is free of charge and will not consume any national treasure value."

"...Not charging is not charging, do you really have to specifically mention it? This is just a basic service..."

Lin Yang curled his lips.

This damn System never emphasized it separately when it wanted money; every time, it just said it casually.

Now that it's doing such a small thing for free, it actually has to specifically point it out.

It's simply...

"Alright, Host. The intelligent upgrade for Butler One has been completed. It will need fifteen minutes of reorganization time."

Thirty seconds later, the System responded on time.

Lin Yang nodded and said nothing more.

After waiting on the spot for fifteen minutes, Butler One restarted: "Respected Commander, Butler One is honored to continue providing service to you!"

Butler One now had some very different feelings.

But as for what specific feeling it was, Lin Yang found it hard to explain for a moment. After handing all the materials to it, he asked casually: "By the way, do you know where Lin Mu went?"

When he left Blue Star back then, he had asked Lin Mu to secretly protect his mother.

Every time he returned a hundred years ago, Lin Mu was still there, but this time he returned, he found that Lin Mu was no longer on Blue Star.

Regarding Lin Mu, Lin Yang was equally curious and expectant.

Lin Mu was a mechanical life form with autonomous intelligence.

Before, when he first traveled through the universe barrier and escaped to the Li Clan, it was also by relying on Lin Mu's autonomous intelligence that he and Cang Miao's lives were saved; otherwise, based on the rigidity of those guardian mechas, he and Cang Miao would have suffocated from lack of oxygen in the escape pod back then.

Lin Yang had also always been looking forward to seeing what level Lin Mu would eventually grow to.

But now, Lin Mu, who was ordered by him to secretly protect his mother, was actually gone, which made him quite puzzled.
