Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

Tuoba Ancient God frantically fled, constantly under attack by Lin Yuan along the way.

Even with a defensive artifact protecting him, it was somewhat hard to bear.

Lin Yuan's each hit, though blocked by the defensive artifact by ninety-nine percent,

still had a slight impact force infiltrating.

Here, 'slight' refers to what would be a full-force hit from Lin Yuan.

For Tuoba Ancient God, that slight impact still caused his internal organs to churn.

Accumulating hit after hit, Tuoba Ancient God was actually dragged to the verge of severe injury.

"This monster, who in the Cosmic Starry Skies is an Eleventh Rank Perfect Life?" Tuoba Ancient God felt extremely aggrieved.

Facing Lin Yuan, he had no ability to resist; if not for depending on the defensive artifact, he would have already collapsed.

Being able to possess such strength in this Two-dimensional World in just a hundred-plus years, to Tuoba Ancient God, only those legendary beings at the extreme limit of Level Eleven Perfection seemed possible.

But Tuoba Ancient God was puzzled; he had lived through long ages, born since the beginning of the cosmos, and he was somewhat aware of any considerably strong Eleventh-Rank Life within the universe.

Just Lin Yuan?

Tuoba Ancient God was merely puzzled since the powerhouses of the Myriad Clans in the Two-dimensional World, unless they spoke up themselves, were hard for outsiders to recognize.

The top-ranked 'Four Divine Kings' were easily identified due to their extremely distinctive features and terrifying strength.

As for other powerhouses? They came from various major Peak Clans and had interactions among themselves, which made it difficult to hide.

Indeed, there were Myriad Clans' Powerhouses who truly secluded themselves away from worldly affairs, but it was rare for someone like Lin Yuan to cultivate to such strength without ever showing themselves.

Behind Tuoba Ancient God.

Lin Yuan was in close pursuit.

"If it weren't for this Two-dimensional World, how much time would I need to grow to my current state, to the extent of chasing down Tuoba Ancient God?"

Lin Yuan felt slightly sentimental. In the Two-dimensional World, even an Eleventh-Rank Peak Life was forcibly brought down in starting point.

This allowed Lin Yuan, with just over a hundred years, to surpass Tuoba Ancient God, a special life at the Eleventh Rank Fifth Tier.

You should know, every life that could step into Tier 11 was an extraordinary genius, far beyond the strong ones Lin Yuan had previously encountered in other dimensional worlds.

"It's time to end this."

Lin Yuan's gaze sharpened slightly.

The pursuit along the way, every hit Lin Yuan landed on Tuoba Ancient God was slowly accumulating, with the residual force all hiding deep within Tuoba Ancient God's body.

Directly through the defensive artifact to attack Tuoba Ancient God, although it could exhaust the opponent to death, it would inevitably take a lot of time.

But bursting from inside was much faster.

Since the first hit landed on that defensive artifact, Lin Yuan had been preparing for this moment.

"Break."

Lin Yuan struck again, his blood boiling, like a heaven-reversing seal pressing down on Tuoba Ancient God.

...

"Again?"

Tuoba Ancient God's heart trembled; the residual waves from the attacks along the way that had penetrated the defensive artifact had already severely injured him, and now facing Lin Yuan's attack, he actually felt an instinctual fear.

"But to completely kill me will not be easy."

Tuoba Ancient God steadied himself; he was only severely injured now, still a distance from death, and according to the current path, if he could endure for another two days,

he would be able to reach a base of the Star Alliance.

By then, with the support of the Star Alliance powerhouses, he would certainly be much more relaxed.

However—

Boom!

This strike landed on Tuoba Ancient God, hitting that defensive artifact.

The next moment.

Tuoba Ancient God's expression drastically changed.

The strike Lin Yuan made was almost the same as the previous attacks.

But with this strike as the catalyst, the residual forces hidden within his body all began to erupt.

In an instant, Tuoba Ancient God felt like his body was enduring a catastrophic flood.

"It's over."

Despair filled Tuoba Ancient God's heart.

Following that,

as the bursts of residual forces gathered within his body, his flesh suddenly exploded, and blood spattered.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan stopped, reaching out with his right hand.

A seemingly ordinary inner armor appeared in his hand.

"Is this the defensive artifact?"

Lin Yuan's eyes slightly heated up; with a powerhouse like Pei Shen at the same level as Tuoba Ancient God lasting only a few breaths in Lin Yuan's hands, even while holding an offensive artifact.

But Tuoba Ancient God.

He had resisted under Lin Yuan's pursuit for half a day.

What was the reason?

Naturally, it was this defensive artifact.

Unlike offensive artifacts, defensive artifacts are far more valuable.

This was particularly true in the Two-dimensional World.

Pei Shen, with an offensive artifact, had killing power that was shocking, but if it didn't hit, it was all in vain.

But a defensive artifact?

It was almost destined to block most of Lin Yuan's attacks.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yuan stowed away the inner armor, his expression suddenly shifting.

In the exploded flesh of Tuoba Ancient God, under the tens of thousands of residual impacts from Lin Yuan, almost all items turned into dust.

Except for the inner armor....

And a silver-white mirror.

"Is this mirror... also an artifact?"

Lin Yuan picked up the mirror.

To discern whether an item was an artifact.

There was a very simple method.

That was to attack.

In this Two-dimensional World, very few things could withstand a full-powered hit from one of the Myriad Tribes' Powerhouses, an artifact being one of them.

Thinking this, Lin Yuan squeezed hard with his right hand.

The silver mirror remained unscathed.

"It is an artifact."

Lin Yuan felt a surge of joy in his heart and likewise stored the silver mirror away.

"It's time to leave."

Lin Yuan glanced around, having chased the Tuoba Ancient God for half the day, he noticed other Myriad Tribes' Powerhouses were cautiously spying from hundreds of miles away.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan's figure disappeared from the spot.

...

Main Universe.

Deep within the Cosmic Starry Skies.

Inside a secret realm.

The Tuoba Ancient God's face paled, his originally near-perfect aura suddenly plummeted.

With the avatar in the Two-dimensional World falling, the Tuoba Ancient God's true self was affected, suffering a permanent loss of that avatar's Spirit Will.

"Why... Why is my luck so bad..." Tuoba Ancient God fumed internally.

They were a group of six special beings, who together, apart from the nine most powerful warriors of the Myriad Tribes, could nearly sweep through the Two-dimensional World.

And out of the whole Two-dimensional World, how many were at the level of the nine most powerful warriors of the Myriad Tribes? Yet, why did he have to encounter one?

"My defensive artifact..." Tuoba Ancient God's heart was bleeding.

In his original plan, even if his avatar could not leave the Two-dimensional World, he had hoped to entrust a departing powerhouse to take the defensive artifact out.

Although it would definitely cost him greatly, even if Tuoba Ancient God only obtained one percent of the artifact's value, it would still be greatly beneficial to him.

At least, the loss of Spirit Will caused by the fall of his avatar would be partially compensated.

But now.

The avatar had fallen.

And the defensive artifact was gone too.

Tuoba Ancient God might as well have fetched water with a bamboo basket – all in vain.

However, from beginning to end, Tuoba Ancient God never considered retaliating against the Myriad Tribe's Powerhouse who had killed him.

What a joke?

Retaliate?

In the Two-dimensional World, without relying on artifacts.

That mysterious Myriad Tribe's Powerhouse could easily slaughter him.

Tuoba Ancient God instinctively believed that in the Cosmic Starry Skies, that mysterious Myriad Tribe's Powerhouse's true self was certainly a formidable Eleventh Rank Perfect Strong One.

To seek revenge against such a powerful being was hopeless unless Tuoba Ancient God himself reached the Ultimate realm.

...

Meanwhile.

As time passed.

The battles fought by Lin Yuan, who had slain those four special beings as well as Pei Shen, Tuoba Ancient God, and others, were being gradually circulated among the Myriad Tribes' Powerhouses through recreated memory battle recordings.

...

Over a serene lake.

A four-armed man sat on the surface of the lake.

"Four Divine Kings." A few figures stood respectfully on the nearby shore.

Facing the Four Divine Kings, the despair of the Eleventh-Rank Life, whether inside or outside the Two-dimensional World, was profound.

The Four Divine Kings were too strong.

A hundred years ago, the Tianyu Clan had concentrated all of its strong ones who had fallen into the Two-dimensional World, trying to eliminate the Four Divine Kings ahead of time.

But they failed.

Not just failed.

The entire Tianyu Clan was almost destroyed.

Causing the strong ones of the Tianyu Clan in this Two-dimensional World to never recover.

A Peak Clan had prematurely lost its right to leave through the Heavenly Gate after two or three hundred years.

"That mysterious strong one, who killed Tuoba Ancient God and Pei Shen among other special beings, — these special beings had already allied with our Star Alliance..."

A tall man on the shore cautiously spoke.

"What? You want me to fight that mysterious strong one?" the Four Divine Kings opened their eyes, their tone icy.

"Let's forget about this matter."

The Four Divine Kings glanced at the few figures on the shore, "I have seen that mysterious strong one's battle recording. His strength is not much weaker than mine."

"Now that he has gained the defensive and offensive artifacts, even if I put forth all my effort, I might not be able to kill him."

The Four Divine Kings paused for a moment and then continued, "There are two hundred years left until the Heavenly Gate opens. For these two hundred years, I need to seize all the time to practice and break through. As for everything else, do not disturb me."

"Yes."

The figures on the shore were startled.

Even the Four Divine Kings were not confident in killing that mysterious strong one?

"Also."

"If you encounter that mysterious strong one, remember to keep your distance," the Four Divine Kings warned, then closed their eyes again.

...

Inside a volcano.

Next to boiling lava, a thin old man sat.

"Hmm?"

"Wonder which old friend this strong one might be," the thin old man mused after watching Lin Yuan's battle video, his face showing contemplation.

Combat in the Two-dimensional World was completely different from the Main Universe, so identifying the real identity of a strong one based on their battle style was challenging.

But the strength Lin Yuan displayed obviously gained the thin old man's approval, determining that Lin Yuan was a legendary Eleventh Rank Perfect being, akin to himself.

"Well then."

"It's been a long time, and I might as well go out and show myself, maybe collect a few artifacts for fun?"

With his mind made up, the thin old man stood up and left the volcano.

...

Deep underground.

After Lin Yuan killed Tuoba Ancient God and the group of special beings.

He didn't immediately return to the Luochuan gathering area.

Instead, he hid in this place, starting to take stock of his gains.

"This mirror?"

Lin Yuan flipped his right hand, and the silver mirror appeared.

The mirror was wholly silver, with a faint mysterious aura flowing throughout.

"This?"

Lin Yuan closely observed it, his expression subtly changing.
