708: Breakthrough, Return to the Arctic Ocean (Happy National Day!)

Lin Yang watched King Tianluo leave, then returned to the High-Level Spacetime.

"Forget the Dao?"

Lin Yang repeated King Tianluo's words, and vaguely gained some insight.

"Is it by forgetting the existence of the Dao that one can avoid its influence, and then wholeheartedly focus on breaking through without distractions?"

He seemed to understand something.

Sometimes, the more one cares, the more one is obsessed, the harder it is to achieve the goal.

Forgetting the existence of the Dao and letting go of the obsession to break through might indeed be a good method.

From that day on, Lin Yang no longer deliberately thought about matters related to breaking through, but instead focused solely on reaching the limit of his own power.

"space power, if it could be further integrated into the spear techniques of Senior Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior, perhaps its power could reach an even higher level."

Lin Yang practiced his spear techniques, also pondering how to modify them to better suit himself.

The profoundness of Senior Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior's spear techniques was naturally beyond doubt.

But precisely because it was too profound, Lin Yang himself could not fully master it.

Moreover, every Dao, even if inherited, might not perfectly align with one's own by a hundred percent.

Therefore, it needed to be changed!

The power of space power was also beyond doubt.

If the power of the two could be more perfectly integrated, Lin Yang had a premonition that he might be able to break through a certain limit.

With an idea, Lin Yang began to conduct various experiments and trials.

Time flew by, and tens of thousands of years passed again.

On this day, Lin Yang finally found a way to perfectly integrate the power of the two.

"Chirp!"

The Silver Dragon Spear thrust out, and the spatial barrier of the High-Level Spacetime was almost pierced through.

At this moment, Lin Yang finally saw his Dao!

That Dao of Space stretched across the boundless void; as long as he could advance a little further, he could merge with the Great Dao of Space, thereby taking that step and reaching the Dao Above.

"Daoist Master Qing Yuan's method is indeed useful, and the breakthrough insights of King Tianluo and King Baoning are also very useful," Lin Yang said, delighted.

In these tens of thousands of years, he did not pursue any breakthrough, but rather immersed himself more deeply in the comprehension of the Dao, focusing solely on the limit of his power.

Now, he finally saw the glimmer of the path forward to the Dao Above.

"The Dao Above, so that's how it is."

Lin Yang comprehended.

Rumble.

The sound of the Great Dao permeated the universe, and the power of the Great Dao descended from the nine heavens, enveloping Lin Yang's body.

"This, this is..."

The entire High-Level Spacetime was greatly shaken by this sudden massive commotion.

Swish, swish, swish.

Several figures appeared one after another at the place where Lin Yang was in seclusion.

The Lord of Lanlou's eyes shone with a strange brilliance: "It's Lin Yang, he's about to reach the Dao Above!"

"So fast?"

Upon hearing this, Heavenly Balance and the others were all profoundly shocked.

In Chu Country, Chu Jin and the others watched this scene from afar, their hearts filled with even greater resentment.

The jealousy in Chu Jin's eyes was almost burning into a tangible form.

Although he had long known that it was only a matter of time before Lin Yang reached the Dao Above with his cultivation speed.

But when this day truly arrived, it still made him incredibly jealous.

And while jealous, a hint of worry also ignited in Chu Jin's heart.

Lin Yang reaching the Dao Above would inevitably come to trouble Chu Country.

"No, I must report to the Old Ancestors..."

Chu Jin thought, then slipped into a secret chamber.

When Lin Yang was at the Half-Step Dao Above, he almost broke through the power of the Formation Array; now that he had reached the Dao Above, it would be difficult to resist with just the power of the Formation Array.

However, Chu Jin was not overly worried.

Because those who reached the Dao Above would be immediately required to leave the High-Level Spacetime.

He was just being cautious...

"Finally, I can break through..."

On Lin Yang's side, however, at the very moment he was about to fully break through, he forcibly suppressed it.

Upon reaching the Dao Above, one must abide by the rules and leave the High-Level Spacetime immediately.

He still had many things unfinished.

The most important matter, of course, was to go to the Heart of the Extreme Sea to help Yue You escape her predicament.

So, he forcibly suppressed that last wisp of breakthrough power.

However, even though he forcibly suppressed it and did not complete the final breakthrough,

his power was not much different from, or even stronger than, someone who had just broken through to the Dao Above.

Because he broke through by force!

In terms of power, he was undoubtedly strong!

"Although I've forcibly suppressed it, I can't hold it for too long. I must go to the Heart of the Extreme Sea as soon as possible."

Lin Yang felt the constant imposition of the rule power from the netherworld, urging him to break through, and he had a feeling.

He couldn't remain in this state of forcibly suppressing the breakthrough for too long.

Whoosh.

Lin Yang emerged from his seclusion.

He met the Lord of Lanlou and the others.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency Lin Yang, on successfully reaching the Dao Above!"

The Lord of Lanlou was the first to offer his congratulations.

Heavenly Balance and the others bowed in salute: "Greetings, Lord Lin Yang."

Lin Yang waved his hand: "You all don't need to be so polite. Also, I haven't broken through yet."

"Huh? Not broken through? How is that possible? The sound of the Great Dao just descended," the Lord of Lanlou was stunned, then couldn't help but worry: "Could something have gone wrong?"

"Don't worry, I forcibly suppressed it. After breaking through, I have to leave the High-Level Spacetime immediately, and I still have some matters to attend to, so I forcibly suppressed it. Once I'm done, I can break through," Lin Yang explained.

"So that's it... That's good, that's good..." The Lord of Lanlou immediately felt relieved again.

Heavenly Balance and a few others were extremely surprised.

What could be more important than breaking through?

They, at least, couldn't imagine.

"Lord, and all the elders, I cannot maintain this suppressed state for too long, so I will go attend to my matters first."

Lin Yang said, intending to go to the Heart of the Extreme Sea first, but then added: "I should still tell you about my breakthrough insights first."

"Of course, my path may not be suitable for you."

After speaking, he recounted his own breakthrough experience and the path he took, as well as the breakthrough experiences of King Tianluo and King Baoning.

These experiences might not be immediately useful to Heavenly Balance and the others at present.

But for the Lord of Lanlou, they might offer some inspiration.

After listening, the Lord of Lanlou bowed to Lin Yang: "These breakthrough experiences are too crucial and important. Thank you, Your Excellency Lin Yang!"

"You're welcome." Lin Yang waved his hand, glanced in the direction of Chu Country, then turned and tore through space to head towards the Extreme Sea.

Dealing with Chu Country was not urgent at this moment.

He arrived at the Extreme Sea once again.

This time, Lin Yang clearly had a different feeling.

Before, he could only feel the strength of the Extreme Sea's storms.

But now, he could feel that the entire Extreme Sea was extremely terrifying.

Those storms were merely the most superficial danger.

"The Extreme Sea and the River of Time Reversal seem to be similar, both are very extraordinary."

Lin Yang thought, and quickly rushed to the place where he last saw Yue You.

When he arrived again, Yue You was also very shocked: "Lin Yang, you have already reached a level comparable to the Dao Above?"

How much time had passed?

Lin Yang had actually already reached the Dao Above.

This also greatly surprised Yue You.

"I was fortunate enough to gain some insights," Lin Yang scratched his head.

"Fortunate?" Yue You smiled wryly.

Such an abnormal breakthrough speed could not be achieved by mere luck.

"Senior Yue, my current power has already reached the Dao Above. May I ask what I should do to help you escape your predicament?"

Lin Yang didn't say much; his time was limited now, and he had to complete it as soon as possible.
