Chapter 60 The Dimensional Overlord's Dimensional Judgment! Lin Feng's Ultimate Battle with a Level Thirteen Civilization!

After the Eternal Divine Kingdom fleet left the Causality Civilization, it had been sailing in the starry sky for seven full years.

During these seven years, Lin Feng had been pondering a profound proposition—what was the ultimate trial of the Journey of Eternal Evolution?

In the previous six stations of the trial, he had successively saved six different types of civilizations: Consciousness Civilization, Mechanical Civilization, Flesh Civilization, Energy Civilization, Void Civilization, and Causality Civilization. But Lin Feng vaguely felt that these trials were just the prelude, and the true ultimate test was yet to come.

"Lin Feng," Li Xue's voice was filled with unprecedented fear, "detected a… civilization signal that completely exceeds understanding."

"Completely exceeds understanding?" Lin Feng looked at the detector in Li Xue's hand.

"Yes," Li Xue operated the detector rapidly, "the detector shows that the dimensional data of this civilization is… constantly collapsing."

"Constantly collapsing?" Tian Jian looked at Li Xue, "What does that mean?"

"It means the spatial dimensions of this universe are disappearing," Li Xue explained, "A second ago, the data showed this universe was three-dimensional, now it has turned into two-dimensional, the next second it will turn into one-dimensional, and finally, it will completely disappear into zero-dimension."

"Three-dimensional reduced to two-dimensional, then to one-dimensional, and finally disappearing into zero-dimension…" A flash of unprecedented vigilance crossed Lin Feng's eyes, "This is dimensional collapse, and it's exponential."

"Dimensional collapse…" Tian Jian asked in shock, "What does this mean?"

"It means the dimensional structure of the Multiverse is collapsing," Lin Feng's voice was exceptionally serious, "If we don't stop it, the entire Multiverse will be reduced to zero-dimension."

"Reduced to zero-dimension…" Li Xue's face turned pale, "What will happen then?"

"Zero-dimension is an absolute void state with no length, width, height, no space, time, matter, or energy," Lin Feng said word by word, "If the entire Multiverse is reduced to zero-dimension, all existence will vanish. The universe, life, civilization, consciousness, all will be reduced to nothingness."

"All will be reduced to nothingness…" Tian Jian looked at Lin Feng in shock, "If we don't stop it…"

"The entire Multiverse will become an absolute void," Lin Feng said firmly, "We must go."

Dimensional Civilization · The Flattened Universe

When the Eternal Divine Kingdom fleet arrived at the galaxy of the Dimensional Civilization, everyone was completely stunned by the scene before them.

This was not darkness, nor was it void, but—the universe was being flattened alive.

All stars were flattening, compressed from three-dimensional spheres into two-dimensional disks, then into one-dimensional lines, and finally disappearing into the zero-dimensional void. All planets were thinning, compressed from three-dimensional spheres into two-dimensional disks, then into one-dimensional lines, and finally disappearing into the zero-dimensional void. All life forms were screaming, compressed from three-dimensional beings into two-dimensional figures, then into one-dimensional lines, and finally disappearing into the zero-dimensional void.

This was not just a collapse of dimensions; this was the absolute destruction of existence.

"This is the Dimensional Civilization…" Li Xue looked at the data on the detector, her face as pale as paper, "Dimensions are collapsing crazily. Initially, it took ten minutes for three-dimensional to reduce to two-dimensional, now countless galaxies are reducing from three-dimensional to two-dimensional every second, then to one-dimensional, and finally disappearing into zero-dimension."

"Not only that," Lin Feng looked at the center of the galaxy, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, "The Dimensional Vortex there is expanding crazily, at a speed one hundred billion times the speed of light."

"One hundred billion times the speed of light…" Tian Jian asked in shock, "What does this mean?"

"It means the dimension has broken through the absolute limits of spatial structure," Lin Feng explained, "It is no longer constrained by any physical laws and can change the dimensions of the universe at will."

"Change dimensions at will…" Li Xue repeated in shock.

"At this rate," Lin Feng continued, "the dimensions will completely collapse within three days. Three days later, the entire Multiverse will be reduced to zero-dimension."

"Three days…" Tian Jian looked at Lin Feng in shock, "So fast."

"Three days might even be a conservative estimate," Lin Feng said calmly, "The collapse of dimensions is exponential and is constantly accelerating. If not stopped, the entire Multiverse will be reduced to zero-dimension within three days."

Just then, the Eternal Divine Kingdom fleet received a communication from the Dimensional Civilization.

It was not a sound, nor was it consciousness ripples, but—a flattened scream.

[Help… our universe is thinning… being pressed from three-dimensional to two-dimensional… from two-dimensional to one-dimensional… about to be flattened into zero-dimension…]

The scream was filled with absolute pain, as if the entire civilization was experiencing the torture of being flattened alive.

"I am Lin Feng of the Eternal Divine Kingdom," Lin Feng responded directly in his consciousness, "We come from another universe, and our goal is to save your civilization."

[Saving… it's too late… the dimensional collapse cannot be stopped… it will reduce the entire Multiverse to zero-dimension within three days…]

"Three days?" Lin Feng pressed, "When did the dimensional collapse start?"

[Three days ago… the Dimensional Overlord suddenly appeared… and began to crazily lower the dimensions of the universe… we cannot stop it… the speed of dimensional collapse… is accelerating every second…]

"Three days ago…" Lin Feng pondered, "That is exactly when we left the Causality Civilization."

[Not only that… the Dimensional Overlord's reduction is not random… it seems… to be looking for something…]

"Looking for what?" Lin Feng asked.

[It is looking for… the Eternal Evolver… it says… the Eternal Evolver is the only threat to its dimensional reduction…]

"The Eternal Evolver…" Tian Jian looked at Lin Feng in shock, "Are you saying…"

"Yes," Lin Feng nodded, "The Dimensional Overlord is looking for me."

[The Dimensional Overlord… wants to see you… it says… the Eternal Evolver… is the only existence it wants to reduce…]

"The only existence it wants to reduce…" A cold glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, "Let me meet it."

Dimensional Overlord · The Dimensional Reduction Tyrant of level 13 civilization

The Eternal Divine Kingdom fleet was guided into the central region of the Dimensional Civilization.

There was a huge Dimensional Vortex here, and in the center of the vortex floated a terrifying existence—this existence had no fixed form, like a demon constantly reducing dimensions, neither matter nor energy, but a pure dimensional threat.

[Eternal Evolver… you have finally come…]

A fanatical voice spread from the dimensional threat, filled with endless arrogance.

[I am the Dimensional Overlord… the Dimensional Reduction Tyrant of the level 13 civilization… the dimensional ruler of the Multiverse…]

"level 13 civilization…" A flash of shock crossed Lin Feng's eyes, "You have already ascended to a level 13 civilization?"

[Yes… I have broken through the absolute limits of the Level 12 Civilization… and ascended to a level 13 civilization… possessing the absolute power to manipulate dimensions…]

"level 13 civilization…" Tian Jian looked at Lin Feng in shock, "What does that mean?"

"A level 13 civilization can manipulate dimensions at will," Lin Feng explained, "They can change the dimensions of the universe at will, reducing from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, from two-dimensional to one-dimensional, from one-dimensional to zero-dimension. This power far exceeds that of a Level 12 Civilization."

"Far exceeds a Level 12 Civilization…" Li Xue repeated in shock.

[Low-dimension is pure… high-dimension is complex… low-dimension has no space, no time, no matter, no energy… this is the purest state of the universe… dimensional reduction is letting the universe return to purity…]

"Pure?" Lin Feng sneered, "Low-dimension is not pure; it is void. Zero-dimension means everything has vanished, including life, including consciousness, including civilization. Your so-called purity is absolute nothingness."

[Void is eternal… existence is void… only by reducing to zero-dimension can one be truly eternal…]

"Is reducing to zero-dimension eternal?" A cold glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, "Then let me tell you what true eternity is."

Just then, the ten civilization evolution cores within Lin Feng began to rotate.

"Power of Eternal Evolution—Dimensional Detection!"

Following Lin Feng's voice, a golden energy poured into the Dimensional Overlord. A few seconds later, Lin Feng opened his eyes, with unprecedented shock flickering in them.

"The Dimensional Overlord is a level 13 civilization," Lin Feng said in shock, "Its power far exceeds mine."

"Far exceeds you?" Tian Jian asked in shock, "By how much?"

"The Dimensional Overlord's power is ten times mine," Lin Feng said calmly, "I am currently a Level 12 Civilization, the Dimensional Overlord is a level 13 civilization, and the power gap is ten times."

"Ten times the power gap…" Li Xue said in shock, "Then… how can we possibly defeat it?"

"We cannot win in a direct fight," Lin Feng said firmly, "But the Journey of Eternal Evolution is not for fighting, but for helping civilizations find a third balance. Although the Dimensional Overlord's power is strong, its belief is wrong."

"The belief is wrong?" Tian Jian was thoughtful.

"The Dimensional Overlord believes that low-dimension is pure and high-dimension is complex," Lin Feng continued, "But it is wrong. Low-dimension is not pure; it is void. High-dimension is not complex; it is rich. The Dimensional Overlord mistakenly believes that dimensional reduction is evolution, but in reality, dimensional reduction is destruction."

"Dimensional reduction is destruction…" Li Xue said in shock, "Then… the Dimensional Overlord is a believer in dimensional reduction."

"Yes," Lin Feng nodded, "The Dimensional Overlord is not an evil existence, but a believer in dimensional reduction. It mistakenly believes that low-dimension is the pure state of the universe, so it wants to reduce dimensions to let the universe return to purity."

"The purity of low-dimension…" Tian Jian was thoughtful.

Power of Eternal Evolution: A Game of Wisdom

"Dimensions shouldn't be reduced; they should be elevated," Lin Feng looked at the Dimension Overlord. "But you mistakenly thought low dimensions were the pure state of the universe, which is why you wanted to reduce them."

[Low dimensions are pure... high dimensions are complex... low dimensions have no space, no time, no matter, no energy... this is the purest state of the universe...]

The Dimension Overlord's voice was full of fanaticism, as if dimensional reduction was its only faith.

[I... have reduced countless universes... they have all returned to purity... this is the evolution of the universe... dimensional reduction is the ultimate truth of the universe...]

"Dimensional reduction isn't evolution; it's destruction," Lin Feng said gently. "Low dimensions aren't pure; they are void. Zero-dimension has no space, no time, no matter, and no energy, which means everything ceases to exist. If the universe were reduced to zero-dimension, all life would vanish, all civilizations would be destroyed, and all consciousness would dissipate. Your so-called purity is absolute nothingness."

[Life is void... civilization is void... consciousness is void... only low dimensions are eternal... only by reducing to zero-dimension can there be true eternity...]

The Dimension Overlord's voice began to tremble, as if it were undergoing some kind of internal struggle.

[But... why are the universes after reduction... all a void... why is there no life, no civilization, no consciousness...]

"Because low dimensions lack the conditions for life to exist," Lin Feng explained. "A three-dimensional universe can accommodate life, a two-dimensional universe can only accommodate simple shapes, a one-dimensional universe can only accommodate lines, and a zero-dimensional universe has nothing. The lower the dimension, the weaker the universe's carrying capacity. The lower the dimension, the fewer the possibilities for life. The lower the dimension, the lower the complexity of civilization."

[The lower the dimension... the weaker the carrying capacity... the fewer the possibilities for life... the lower the complexity of civilization...]

The Dimension Overlord's voice became more confused, and the Dimensional Vortex began to oscillate violently.

[No... I cannot accept this... low dimensions are pure... dimensional reduction is evolution... this is... my faith...]

"Your faith isn't dimensional reduction," Lin Feng said firmly. "Your faith is understanding the essence of dimensions. The essence of dimensions is not reduction, but elevation. Low dimensions are the foundation of dimensions, and high dimensions are the evolution of dimensions. The Dimension Overlord's faith is a misunderstanding of the essence of dimensions."

[A misunderstanding of the essence of dimensions... the Dimension Overlord misunderstood dimensions...]

The Dimension Overlord's voice became weaker and weaker, as if it were experiencing an internal collapse.

[Then... the Dimension Overlord's faith... should... be corrected...]

"Yes," Lin Feng nodded. "The Dimension Overlord's faith should be corrected. Dimensions shouldn't be reduced; they should be elevated. Once the faith is corrected, the essence of dimensions will manifest."

Just then, the civilization evolution core within Lin Feng's body began to resonate.

"Power of Eternal Evolution—Dimension Overlord Faith Correction! Dimension Essence Manifestation!"

Following Lin Feng's voice, a massive surge of golden energy erupted from his body and rushed toward the Dimension Overlord.

This golden energy was like a pair of gentle palms, enveloping the entire Dimensional Vortex. Under the guidance of the Power of Eternal Evolution, the Dimension Overlord's dimensional threat began to dissipate, and the erroneous faith was corrected bit by bit.

The True Manifestation of Dimensional Essence

With the correction of the Dimension Overlord's faith, the Dimension Overlord underwent a massive change.

It was no longer a terrifying dimensional threat but a beautiful dimensional existence—like a transparent Dimensional Life form, neither matter nor energy, but a pure dimensional state.

[I... see it...]

The Dimension Overlord's voice was no longer fanatically arrogant, but possessed a gentle and profound wisdom.

[The essence of dimensions... is not reduction... but elevation...]

"Yes," Lin Feng smiled. "Low dimensions are the foundation of dimensions, and high dimensions are the evolution of dimensions. Dimensions shouldn't be lowered; they should be raised. Low dimensions are the foundation, and high dimensions are the skyscraper. Without a foundation, the skyscraper will collapse. But without the skyscraper, the foundation has no meaning."

[I understand... the Dimension Overlord's faith... made me mistakenly believe that low dimensions were pure... but that is not the essence of dimensions... it was the Dimension Overlord's misunderstanding...]

"The faith has been corrected," Lin Feng nodded. "The essence of dimensions has manifested."

[The Dimension Overlord's misunderstanding... has been corrected... the essence of dimensions... has manifested...]

The Dimension Overlord looked at the surrounding dimensional space, its eyes filled with a new light.

[What I see is no longer the void of the universe... but its richness... dimensions are not the enemy... but the ladder of the universe's evolution...]

"Not only that," Lin Feng continued, "now, I will help you find the third balance—the perfect combination of low and high dimensions."

[The perfect combination of low and high dimensions...]

A flash of realization sparkled in the Dimension Overlord's eyes.

[Low dimensions are the foundation of high dimensions, just as a foundation is the base of a skyscraper. High dimensions are the evolution of low dimensions, just as a skyscraper is the evolution of its foundation. Both fulfill each other, neither can be missing, and together they create eternity.]

"That is the third balance," Lin Feng praised. "The perfect combination of low and high dimensions, the mutual fulfillment of foundation and evolution."

Dimensional Civilization: From Dimensional Reduction to Dimensional Elevation

With the manifestation of the dimensional essence, the entire Dimensional Civilization began a true transformation.

The dimensional collapse stopped, and the Dimensional Vortex no longer expanded; instead, it began to stabilize. Dimensions were no longer a threat to the universe but a ladder for its evolution.

The members of the Dimensional Civilization were no longer demons of dimensional reduction, but a special kind of life that perfectly combined low and high dimensions—they understood both the foundational nature of low dimensions and the evolutionary nature of high dimensions.

[We... are no longer tyrants of dimensional reduction... we are the guardians of the dimensional essence...]

The Dimension Overlord said excitedly.

"Not only that," Li Xue said, looking at the data on the detector, "the third balance between low and high dimensions has given the Dimensional Civilization unprecedented power. Dimensions are no longer a threat, but a ladder for the evolution of the Multiverse."

"An evolutionary ladder..." Heavenly Sword marveled. "This is too shocking."

"This is the true power of the third balance," Lin Feng smiled. "Low and high dimensions are not opposites; they fulfill each other. Low dimensions are the foundation of high dimensions, and high dimensions are the evolution of low dimensions. Dimensions shouldn't be lowered; they should be raised."

[Thank you... thank you...] the Dimension Overlord said excitedly. [You have not only corrected my faith... but also allowed the essence of dimensions... to truly manifest...]

"It is our honor," Lin Feng said gently. "Helping all civilizations find the third balance is our mission."

Just then, all members of the Dimensional Civilization began their true evolution.

Low dimensions began to optimize, and high dimensions began to integrate; the two promoted each other and progressed together. The Dimensional Civilization transformed from a threat of dimensional reduction into an Elevated Dimensional Civilization that perfectly combined low and high dimensions.

Journey of Eternal Evolution: Seventh Stop Complete

When the fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom left the Dimensional Civilization, all members of the Dimensional Civilization came to see them off.

They were no longer a terrifying dimensional threat but a beautiful, harmonious, and wise civilization that combined low and high dimensions.

[Thank you,] the Dimension Overlord said. [You will always be friends of our Dimensional Civilization.]

"We are your friends too," Lin Feng smiled. "The Eternal Divine Kingdom will continue to help all civilizations in need."

"Where is your next stop?" the Dimension Overlord asked curiously.

"The next civilization that needs help." Lin Feng looked at the starry sky. "Our Journey of Eternal Evolution has only just begun."

**[Good luck to you!]** the entire Dimensional Civilization said in unison.

"Good luck to you too," Lin Feng waved goodbye. "May dimensions forever be the ladder of the universe's evolution."

The fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom set off again, sailing into the depths of the starry sky.

This was the seventh stop of the Journey of Eternal Evolution. Lin Feng had corrected the Dimension Overlord's faith and helped the Dimensional Civilization find the third balance between low and high dimensions.

In the trials of the first seven stops, Lin Feng had saved:

Consciousness Civilization (Balance between individual and whole)

Mechanical Civilization (Balance between hardware and software)

Flesh Civilization (Balance between genes and soul)

Energy Civilization (Balance between energy and conservation)

Void Civilization (Balance between void and existence)

Causality Civilization (Balance between cause and effect)

Dimensional Civilization (Balance between low and high dimensions)

Seven different types of civilizations, seven different types of third balances, and seven different trials of laws.

But more importantly, what Lin Feng faced at the seventh stop was a powerful enemy from a level 13 civilization. The Dimension Overlord's power far exceeded Lin Feng's, but Lin Feng used the Power of Eternal Evolution to correct its faith and help it find the third balance.

The Journey of Eternal Evolution is not only about helping other civilizations find the third balance but also a game of faith with powerful enemies.

And Lin Feng, this Level 12 Civilization powerhouse who had already fused ten civilization evolution cores, although only at Level 12 Civilization, used his wisdom to help a level 13 civilization find the third balance.
