612: Too much treasure is never a burden

Upon hearing this, Lin Yang couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, Butler Fu just said that Miss Mo was chased here by enemies. Who are these enemies?"

Butler Fu had mainly focused on explaining the situation of the Dao Rhythm remnant scroll to him earlier, only briefly mentioning Xuan Xiao's mother.

Xuan Xiao glanced at Butler Fu, who replied:

"Your Excellency Lin Yang, the enemy is a very powerful national force called 'Chu Country'. My young lady has no thoughts of revenge; she just wants to return to her hometown and see it one last time."

"But unfortunately, I am useless and cannot take my young lady home. Now, I can only place my hopes on Your Excellency Lin Yang."

As he spoke, Butler Fu's expression became much more serious, and he solemnly said:

"Regarding the Dao Rhythm remnant scroll and my young lady, I hope Your Excellency will keep it strictly confidential!"

"If the news leaks, there will be a danger of annihilation!"

He had allowed Xuan Xiao to bring out such an important item because he trusted Lin Yang.

Lin Yang was somewhat surprised upon hearing this: "Chu Country? Are you sure it's Chu Country??"

Chu Country!

The country that chased Feng back then, if he remembered correctly, was also called Chu Country!

Could these two be the same?

Lin Yang was greatly shocked.

Then, he quickly calmed down, because if it was indeed the same Chu Country, then it would explain why he couldn't find Chu Country despite searching the entire Wan Qian Universe Zone and Endless Spacetime!

The Boundary Wall was so precious that it deserved the covetousness of High-Level Spacetime existences!

"If it's the same Chu Country, doesn't that also mean that Senior Feng is an existence from High-Level Spacetime?"

Lin Yang pondered to himself, becoming more and more shocked the more he thought about it.

An existence from High-Level Spacetime, then Feng is very likely a Dao Realm expert?

Moreover, assuming Feng is a Dao Realm expert, then Senior Yue You, the Silver-haired woman, is probably also a Dao Realm expert!

But if they are both Dao Realm experts... "The information Senior Yue You revealed before doesn't quite seem to fit..."

Lin Yang again had some doubts.

After all, if Senior Yue You was a Dao Realm expert, how could his master call her "Little Yue"?

There were many inconsistencies here.

He fell into thought.

Butler Fu and Xuan Xiao, seeing this, said, "Your Excellency Lin Yang, is there a problem with Chu Country? Have you heard of it before?"

Their words interrupted Lin Yang's thoughts, and he nodded, "I have indeed heard of it, I just don't know if it's the same one."

"Oh?" Butler Fu was a little surprised, a gleam in his eyes, and he said gravely, "Does Your Excellency Lin Yang have any dealings with Chu Country?"

"No." Lin Yang shook his head directly, paused, and then added, "But one of my seniors also died because of Chu Country. If it's the same Chu Country, then it's very interesting."

He saw that Butler Fu's question was out of concern about his relationship with Chu Country, which was why he explained.

As for revealing this point, it was nothing.

Butler Fu and Xuan Xiao had both revealed their biggest secrets, and he would reveal his too; this was called an exchange of secrets.

Both sides would feel more at ease.

Sure enough, after hearing his explanation, Butler Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and didn't ask how the senior Lin Yang mentioned died because of Chu Country, only saying:

"Since that's the case, whether or not it's the same Chu Country, Your Excellency Lin Yang will know when you reach High-Level Spacetime in the future."

"Mm."

Lin Yang nodded, then asked:

"Butler Fu, how does one go to High-Level Spacetime?"

Although he had known about the existence of High-Level Spacetime from the system before, he knew nothing about the specific situation of High-Level Spacetime.

Butler Fu smiled and said, "It's very simple. As long as you have the power of the Transformation Dao Realm, you can break through the spatial membrane and travel through High-Level Spacetime."

"Transformation Dao Realm is enough?" Lin Yang was surprised, "Then why do so many Saint Xuan Rulers in the Ancient Country, who possess the strength to go to High-Level Spacetime, not..."

He looked at Butler Fu and Xuan Xiao, not understanding why they wouldn't give such a precious item to a Saint Xuan Ruler but instead to him.

Butler Fu smiled: "It's simple, because we don't trust the Saint Xuan Rulers."

"Don't trust them?" Lin Yang was quite surprised, not expecting such an answer.

"Yes." Butler Fu nodded, "Although the Saint Xuan Rulers can go to High-Level Spacetime, my young lady doesn't trust them; they are too entangled."

At this point, Butler Fu paused, then continued, "Besides, although the Saint Xuan Rulers are all in the Transformation Dao Realm, in High-Level Spacetime, they are only ordinary powerhouses. Therefore, they all try their best to remain in Endless Spacetime."

"Staying in Endless Spacetime, they are lofty Saint Xuan Rulers; going to High-Level Spacetime, it's different."

"For such Saint Xuan Rulers, my young lady not only doesn't trust them but also looks down on them."

"Each one fears going to High-Level Spacetime. Such people are not worthy of my young lady's trust and hope."

Lin Yang was somewhat dumbfounded.

This was similar to the situation within the Universe Zone.

Some Old Ancestors within the Universe Zone also dared not easily venture into Endless Spacetime.

A part of them indeed coveted the wonderful taste of enjoying power.

It's just... "Butler Fu, aren't you afraid that I also won't dare to easily go to High-Level Spacetime?" Lin Yang said slowly.

This trust was too heavy.

"Haha." Butler Fu, however, burst into laughter, "No, Your Excellency Lin Yang, I have carefully studied your situation, you won't."

"You trust me that much." Lin Yang couldn't help but sigh.

"Whether we trust you or not, we can only trust you now, the item has already been given to you, hasn't it?" Butler Fu said with a smile.

Lin Yang was momentarily speechless.

Immediately, he put away the remnant scroll and slowly said, "Since Butler Fu and Your Highness trust me so much, if there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely take Miss Mo back to her hometown for a visit."

"With Your Excellency Lin Yang's words, I am relieved."

Butler Fu was greatly comforted, then sighed:

"I have followed my young lady for many years, but unfortunately, my aptitude is ordinary, and even now, I am only in the Ten Thousand Laws Realm."

"But it's also laughable to say that precisely because my aptitude and strength were ordinary back then, the people of Chu Country didn't pay attention to a small servant like me, which allowed me to find a chance to survive; otherwise... hehe."

Lin Yang immediately glanced at Xuan Xiao.

He couldn't respond to that.

"Cough, cough, alright, let's not talk about these things anymore, Your Excellency Lin Yang, I'll add one more word: you must keep this a secret. The Dao Rhythm remnant scroll is something that even Chu Country wants to snatch. It's not just Chu Country; if the news leaks, countless Dao Realm experts will covet it, and that would be a great disaster!"

Butler Fu urged again.

"Understood!"

Lin Yang nodded.

In his heart, he sighed; he had the Boundary Wall, which would naturally make people covet him, and now he had an additional Dao Rhythm remnant scroll.

This gave him a feeling of "too many treasures, not a burden."

"By the way, Your Excellency Lin Yang, if you have the chance, you should still look for the last piece of the Dao Rhythm remnant scroll. A complete Dao Rhythm remnant scroll must hold a great secret, otherwise, Chu Country wouldn't be so frantic." Butler Fu reminded him again.

"Okay." Lin Yang nodded again.

"Then, Your Excellency Lin Yang, I wish you an early breakthrough to the Transformation Dao Realm." Butler Fu cupped his hands.

"I'll take Butler Fu's auspicious words." Lin Yang smiled.

He was indeed very confident about reaching the Transformation Dao Realm.

Xuan Xiao then said, "Lin Yang, I have additionally secured for you another opportunity to comprehend the complete Dao Rhythm. You can use it all at once and stay in the Dao Rhythm Great Hall for two thousand years!"

"If all goes well, your own strength, without the aid of the Space Source Pearl, will definitely reach the Invincible Emperor level."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Lin Yang thanked him.

The opportunity to comprehend the complete Dao Rhythm was indeed very rare and precious.

"You're welcome. Now, I'll take you to meet the Saint Xuan Ruler." Xuan Xiao said, leading Lin Yang out of the secret room to meet Xuan Taihuang.

Not long after.

Lin Yang saw the Saint Xuan Ruler Xuanta Wilderness, whose name he had long heard.

"Saint Xuan Ruler, Lin Yang is here."

Xuan Xiao motioned for Lin Yang to bow to Xuan Taihuang with him.

"Greetings, Saint Xuan Ruler." Lin Yang bowed slightly.

Regardless of Xuan Taihuang's strength, the mere fact that Xuan Taihuang gave him the Space Source Pearl made him worthy of a sincere bow.

"Haha, Lin Yang, no need to be so polite."

Xuan Taihuang observed Lin Yang, his eyes full of admiration:

"When you guarded the Boundary Wall, I paid attention to you, but I only get to meet you now. Your growth speed is simply astonishing, making even me admire you!"

"The Saint Xuan Ruler overpraises me; this junior truly doesn't deserve it." Lin Yang replied.

Xuan Taihuang laughed: "Haha, I never praise people lightly; these are my true feelings."

He indeed did not praise people lightly; with his status, there were not many people he would praise.

But Lin Yang, whether it was his courage to fight with all his might to defend his hometown Universe Zone against the Dark Invasion, or his cultivation speed, truly astonished him.

After a sigh, Xuan Taihuang continued, "Lin Yang, I had Xuan Xiao bring you here not only because I wanted to meet you personally, but also to warn you to be careful of Saint Xuan Ruler Xuanming Wilderness."

He looked at Lin Yang, his gaze becoming serious:

"You ruined Xuan Lie's first place this time and also snatched the Space Source Pearl, which means you have consecutively ruined Saint Xuan Ruler Xuanming Wilderness's good deeds. With his narrow-minded personality, he will definitely retaliate against you!"

"Although you are now comparable to an Invincible Emperor, and your life-saving methods are said to be very good, there is still a big gap compared to the Transformation Dao Realm."

"Especially when facing a powerful Dao Lord in the Transformation Dao Realm like Saint Xuan Ruler Xuanming Wilderness, you will be powerless to fight back. During this time, it's best for you to stay on Sheng Xuan Mountain and thoroughly comprehend the Space Source Pearl."

Lin Yang's heart immediately tensed, and he replied, "Thank you, Saint Xuan Ruler, for the guidance."

Xuan Taihuang waved his hand and suddenly said, "Your life-saving method is very powerful. I heard that Butcher Owl couldn't even touch your clothes. Show it to me now; let me see it."

"Ah?" Lin Yang was stunned.

"Haha, I'm also a bit curious, and incidentally, I want to see how much more your life-saving method needs to improve to save your life from a Dao Lord!" Xuan Taihuang said with a laugh.

Lin Yang instantly understood that Xuan Taihuang wanted to test the extent of his spatial layering's life-saving ability, to see how far it was from being able to save his life from Saint Xuan Ruler Xuanming Wilderness!

In short, he was afraid of him being ambushed by Saint Xuan Ruler Xuanming Wilderness and wanted to see his strength.

Immediately, Lin Yang no longer hesitated and directly sacrificed the Space Source Pearl, simultaneously unfolding his spatial layering.

In an instant, his entire being seemed to have gone to another spacetime.

"Oh? This method of yours looks somewhat familiar."

Xuan Taihuang, seeing this, suddenly frowned, as if he remembered something, but couldn't quite recall the specifics for a moment. Then he frowned and said:

"Never mind, first unleash your life-saving method to its maximum extent, and let me take a look!"

"Okay!" Lin Yang activated the Space Source Pearl to augment himself, then looked at Xuan Taihuang and said, "Saint Xuan Ruler, you may make your move."

Xuan Taihuang nodded slightly, then struck out with a palm.

It was just such an ordinary, unremarkable palm.

Yet, it carried the momentum of overturning mountains and seas, instantly crushing all of Lin Yang's spatial layers and reaching him.

Whoosh!

Lin Yang only felt a sense of suffocation.

But the next instant, like a gentle breeze, the suffocating sensation dissipated.

Xuan Taihuang had already withdrawn his power.

"Not bad, able to withstand three-tenths of my power. This life-saving method, among those at the Invincible Emperor level, is rarely broken." Xuan Taihuang praised.

Lin Yang, however, was astonished: "Only three-tenths of your power?"

In that instant, all his spatial layers were shattered, and he didn't even have time to condense new layers.

But it was only a casual strike with three-tenths of Xuan Taihuang's power?

"Haha, Lin Yang, you must know that a normal Invincible Emperor can only withstand one-tenth of my power, and even stronger ones can barely handle two-tenths!"

Xuan Taihuang looked at Lin Yang's expression, seemingly knowing what Lin Yang was thinking, and immediately laughed:

"And for you to be able to withstand a strike with three-tenths of my power, you are already extremely strong!"

Lin Yang was immediately dumbfounded.

This gap was simply too large.

"Lin Yang, you must know that the difference between the Ten Thousand Laws Realm and the Transformation Dao Realm is enormous, and even an Invincible Emperor is no exception!"

Xuan Taihuang spoke:

"It's indeed very good that you can achieve this level, after all, you only broke through to the Ten Thousand Laws Realm not long ago, and now you are only reaching the Invincible Emperor level by relying on the power of the Space Source Pearl."

"Presumably, once your own power can reach the Invincible Emperor level, the ability of your life-saving methods will be further enhanced."

"You can thoroughly comprehend the Space Source Pearl. This item was accidentally obtained by an Old Ancestor of our Ancient Country, and it contains some very unique Dao Rhythm within it. When you can fully comprehend the Space Source Pearl, you will probably not be far from the Transformation Dao Realm."

After that, Xuan Taihuang waved his hand, making a gesture to see them off, and said, "Alright, you can go back and comprehend it first. Xuan Xiao promised you that you would have one more chance to go to the Dao Rhythm Great Hall in the Ten Thousand Laws Realm, and then he exchanged another chance for you. You now have two chances."

"I will also give you one more, so you now have a total of three chances, which you can use consecutively."

"Presumably, these three opportunities will be enough to help you reach the Invincible Emperor level on your own."

Lin Yang was stunned; Xuan Taihuang actually gave him another chance?

"Thank you, Saint Xuan Ruler!"

Then, Lin Yang cupped his hands in thanks and withdrew from the hall.

After coming out, Xuan Xiao sighed from the side, "Lin Yang, the Saint Xuan Ruler really likes you. He speaks to you so politely and even gives you opportunities. Usually, even us princes can only earn merits to exchange for them; we've never received comprehension opportunities gifted by the Saint Xuan Ruler."

"..." Lin Yang's expression was strange.

What he said... "Your Highness, do you know which force Emperor Qing Ying belongs to? Or which spacetime he is from?"

Then, Lin Yang's expression became serious as he asked about something.

That Emperor Qing Ying, who had made a move at the Boundary Wall that day, it was time to settle the score.

Xuan Xiao was stunned: "You... want to kill him?"
