231: Chapter 231 The Final Material, Blood of Heavenly Dao
[Heavenly Court - First Generation] 47th hour of the return voyage from the God Spirit Star Field.
Inside the command cabin, nine people sat around a holographic star map.
Lin Ye stood in the center.
On his chest, that pure white flame pattern was still burning. It was the mark of the [Light Curse], pulsing once every 1.7 seconds, synchronized with his heartbeat.

But he didn't care about that.
He was looking at the coordinates for the last material.

βββ
Lin Ye looked at that line saying "Level 90."
Three seconds passed.
He smiled.
That smile was the same as when he faced Thor.
Very faint.
Very cold.
With a hint of... madness.
"Level 90," he said.
"Ten levels higher than me."
βββ
No one spoke.
But the eyes of all nine people were on him.
βββ
Shi Potian was the first to speak.
He raised his left fist to his chest.
"I'm going with you," he said.
βββ
Lin Ye shook his head.
"You can't go," he said.
"Only I can enter that place."
βββ
Shi Potian said nothing.
But he tightened his left fist.
βββ
Su Qingyue walked to his side.
She took his hand.
Three seconds passed.
She let go.
"I'm going with you," she said.
βββ
Lin Ye looked at her.
"You're level 79," he said.
"You'll die if you go in."
βββ
Su Qingyue didn't speak.
But she looked at him.
In those ice-blue eyes, there was no fear, no hesitation, only a kind ofβcertainty.
βββ
Lin Ye fell silent.
Three seconds passed.
He nodded.
βββ
Minute 73.
[Heavenly Court - First Generation] moored at the edge of the Void Rift.
Lin Ye stood at the cabin door.
He closed his eyes.
[Divine Thought Β· Call Β· Light]
βββ
In the void, a silver-white light lit up.
It was the sub-program "Light."
It floated from the depths of the Void Rift.
It stood before Lin Ye.
βββ
"You've come," Light said.
"Level 80."
"47% Chaos Law."
βββ
Lin Ye nodded.
βββ
"You want to go to the Heavenly Dao Remnant Space," Light said.
"That is... the Core Restricted Zone."
βββ
"I know," Lin Ye said.
βββ
Light fell silent.
Three seconds passed.
It spoke.
"There is a Heavenly Dao Derivative there," it said.
"Level 90."
"You cannot beat it."
βββ
Lin Ye looked at it.
"I'll only know after fighting it," he said.
βββ
Light looked at him.
For a long time.
Then it smiled.
The smile was very light, very faint.
"You are very much like someone I know," it said.
βββ
"Who?" Lin Ye asked.
βββ
"Nameless One," Light said.
βββ
Lin Ye's pupils contracted slightly.
βββ
"He also went there," Light said.
"When he was Level 71."
"He came out alive."
"But he... never smiled again."
βββ
Lin Ye didn't speak.
βββ
Light raised its right hand.
A silver-white light gate unfolded in the void.
[Heavenly Dao Remnant Space Β· Entrance]
[Duration: 17 Minutes]
[Entry Limit: 2 People]
[After entry, the entrance closes automatically]
[The exit can only be reopened by killing the Heavenly Dao Derivative]
βββ
Lin Ye turned around.
He looked at Su Qingyue.
"Are you sure?" he said.
βββ
Su Qingyue didn't speak.
But she took his hand.
βββ
The two of them stepped forward.
They entered the light gate.
βββ
[System Notification: You have entered the "Heavenly Dao Remnant Space"]
[Current Area: Heavenly Dao Core Β· Remnant Layer]

[Time Flow: 1 second outside = 17 seconds inside]
[Spatial Structure: Broken code fragments floating in the void]
[Current Status: Extremely Dangerous]
βββ
Lin Ye stood in the void.
Around him were countless broken code fragments.
On every fragment, dense data was flowing.
That data consisted of all the records of the Heavenly Dao Light Brain's operations over the past 470,000 years.
βββ
In the distance, there was a massive mass of light.
The light was silver-white.
Approximately 1,700 meters in diameter.
It was pulsing at a frequency of once every 1.7 seconds.
Synchronized with Lin Ye's heartbeat.
βββ

[Status: Sleeping]
[Distance: 17 km]
βββ
Lin Ye did not hesitate.
He drifted toward that mass of light.
βββ
At the 17th second.
He stood before the light.
The light slowly receded.
Revealing a... monster.
[Heavenly Dao Derivative]

[HP: 1,700,000]

βββ
[Intruder Detected]
[Rank: Level 80]
[Threat Assessment: Low]
[Processing Method: Eradicate]

Countless code fragments surged toward Lin Ye.
[Data Torrent Β· Activated]
[Damage per second: 50,000 points (Soul Damage)]
[Range: 1,000 meters]
βββ
Lin Ye's HP began to drop.
[100% β 95% β 90% β 85%]
5,000 points per second (Chaos Dragon Scales ineffective, Soul damage cannot be reduced).
βββ
He didn't move.
He just looked at the monster mass.
Three seconds passed.
He smiled.
βββ
At the 2nd second.
He drew his sword.
[Nine Strikes of Chaos Β· First Strike Β· Delusion Breaking]
βββ
A gray sword light pierced into the monster's core.
[Damage Dealt: 47,000 Γ 300% Γ 2 (Chaos Suppression) = 282,000 points]
[Monster HP: 1,700,000 β 1,418,000]
βββ
The monster let out a silent screech.
Its code fragments spun frantically.
[Causality Weapon Β· Activated]
βββ
The moment Lin Ye's second strike was thrust outβit disappeared.
[Karmic Distortion Β· Attack Never Happened]
βββ
Lin Ye's pupils contracted slightly.

Also disappeared.
βββ
At the 4th second.
The fourth strike.
Also disappeared.
βββ
At the 5th second.
The fifth strike.
Also disappeared.
βββ
Lin Ye stood in place.
His Divine Power: 100% β 70%.
But he hadn't hit the monster a single time.
βββ
Su Qingyue's voice came from behind him.
"Causality Law," she said.
"Distorting Karma."
βββ
Lin Ye didn't speak.
He was thinking.
Causality Law.
How to break it?
βββ
At the 6th second.
The monster launched another attack.
[Data Torrent Β· Phase Two]
[Damage per second: 50,000 β 70,000 points]
βββ
Lin Ye's HP: 85% β 78% β 71% β 64%.
βββ
He looked at the monster.
Three seconds passed.
He smiled.
βββ
"Causality Law," he said.
"Then I'll use an attack without a cause."
βββ
At the 7th second.
He put away his sword.
Empty-handed.
[True Dragon Legacy Β· Body Tempering Chapter Β· Dragon Fist]
βββ
A punch smashed toward the monster.
βββ
The monster did not distort this punch.
Because this punch had no "cause."
It was just a pure physical attack.
No skills.
No Laws.
Nothing that could be captured by "Karma."
βββ
[Hit]
[Damage Dealt: 47,000 points (Pure Physical Body)]

βββ
The monster disintegrated.
Turning into countless code fragments.
In the center of the fragments, a silver-white drop of liquid floated.
γblood of the heavenly daoγ
βββ
Lin Ye reached out his hand.
He grasped it.
βββ
[System Notification: You have obtained "blood of the heavenly dao" Γ1]
[Material Progress: 6/9 β 9/9]
[All Materials collection complete]
[Can now refine the "Undergoing Tribulation Grand Array"]
βββ
He looked at the drop of liquid in his hand.
Silver-white.
Transparent.
Inside, countless minute codes were flowing.
Those codes were the Origin of the heavenly dao system.
βββ
He tucked it into his robes.
βββ
He turned around.
He looked at Su Qingyue.
She stood in place.
Her HP: 100% β 47% (Sustained from the aftershocks of the Data Torrent).
But she looked at him.
She smiled.
βββ
Lin Ye walked up to her.
He took her hand.

βββ
"The nine Materials are all here," he said.
"It's time for Undergoing Tribulation."
βββ
No one spoke.
But nine people, nine pairs of eyes, were all looking at him.
