This gathering of momentum took a total of three days.
It wasn't that Lin Yun needed so much time to prepare for his strongest attack, but rather that Lin Yun discovered that when his soul merged with this universe, his understanding in all aspects began to advance by leaps and bounds.
For the next three days, Lin Yun was immersed in cultivation. Originally, he had just broken through to the third level of the Super Realm and was still somewhat unstable in his realm, but now he was completely stable.
While the skill level may not have increased by much, the execution of the skill becomes more fluid, natural, and enduring.
"The fusion of soul and universe feels good, but this feeling is very effective in the short term, but not necessary in the long term..." Lin Yun opened his eyes, chuckled, and said.
After a long period of integration, one will have already grasped what one should have grasped, but the soul is more likely to get lost in the vastness of the universe, which does more harm than good.
"Break through to a new level... Let me see... if I can break through now!" Lin Yun said slowly, his tone gradually becoming firm.
"Buzz!"
"laugh!"
The next moment, Lin Yun raised the Bloodthirsty Sword and slashed out fiercely. He had already vaguely sensed that the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe was also being slashed towards the boundary of the thirty-fourth heaven.
"Sizzle!"
A deep black crack was cleaved open beneath the Bloodthirsty Sword, and a torrent of powerful energy, like a flood bursting through a dam, rapidly surged into the space.
"This... it just split open?" Lin Yun was also stunned when he saw this.
He had received a message from the True Martial Saint Lord, so he knew that the Dao Ancestor's experiences of breaking through new heavens with his group were generally not this fast. The fastest was tens of minutes, and the slowest took a month. Especially when breaking through the thirty-third heaven, it took a month and seven days.
He simply used the Bloodthirsty Sword with its strongest power to cleave it open.
"This...this has been split open? The thirty-fourth heaven has been shattered?" Not far away, True Martial Saint King was also shocked by this scene, his face full of disbelief.
Unlike Lin Yun, who only learned about the process of breaking through the new heaven from the information he provided, Lin Yun had actually experienced the process of breaking through the new heaven. Therefore, his shock was greater and more unbelievable.
He remembered that most of those dozen or so heavens were broken down by the Dao Ancestor leading them, but there was one heaven that the Dao Ancestor broke down alone. However, very few disciples saw this scene, and he happened to be one of the few who did.
At that time, the Dao Ancestor also used a sword to slash at the void. The void did not change at first, but soon the Dao Ancestor launched the next attack, followed by the third. Finally, after about a quarter of an hour, the void was cleaved open with a black crack. However, the black crack was very small. Then the Dao Ancestor continued to unleash powerful attacks, which made the black crack grow rapidly and eventually break through the new layer of heaven.
That time, it took the Dao Ancestor a full quarter of an hour and a half to break through that new layer of heaven.
A quarter and a half... a single move... the difference between the two is enormous...
"Boom—"
Just then, the black crack that Lin Yun had broken rapidly expanded, and streams of even more immense power of heaven and earth surged into this space. It was at this moment that the True Martial Saint confirmed that Lin Yun had indeed broken through the new heaven with a single move.
"With just one move..." The True Martial Saint's feelings were complicated.
He had heard the Dao Ancestor say that the stronger a cultivator's talent and the lower their cultivation level, the less strength they needed to break through to a new realm. At this moment, True Martial Saint Monarch realized that although he had already attached great importance to this point, he seemed to have underestimated it.
Lin Yun's current strength is far inferior to that before his strength was damaged, and naturally it is also far inferior to the Dao Ancestor who left back then. However, even the Dao Ancestor back then could not break through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe, and it was not easy for him to even break through the thirty-third heaven of this universe.
Lin Yun, with such low strength, easily broke through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe.
"Back then, the Dao Ancestor must have broken through many layers of heavens with us, absorbing and refining the primordial power of many outer worlds, which is why it was so difficult for him to break through this new layer of heavens in the universe alone..." True Martial Saint Monarch thought to himself.
At that time, Dao Ancestor's strength was still very strong, at least several times stronger than Lin Yun is now. However, Dao Ancestor, with such strength, only had so much difficulty breaking through the first level of many layers. This was obviously the reason.
This does not mean that Lin Yun's talent, etc., surpasses that of the Dao Ancestor.
Of course, this cannot negate the extraordinary nature of Lin Yun.
As the Dao Ancestor once said, it is very difficult for a native powerhouse of a universe to break through a new level of a universe on their own, especially the last three levels. Everyone who can break through a new level of a universe on their own is an extremely talented person, and the person who can break through one of the last three levels of a universe is even more talented among the most talented.
Such people, once they leave their own universe, can thrive even in the wider world. Barring unforeseen circumstances, they are bound to become powerful figures in their own right.
Now, Lin Yun has broken through one of the last three heavens of this universe with just one move, clearly making him one of the best among them.
"Perhaps, when Lin Yun was at the second level of the Super Realm, he would have had enough strength to break through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe. It's a pity that I didn't let Lin Yun do that back then. If I had told Lin Yun the method to break through the new heaven back then, and let him break through the new heaven of this universe, coupled with Lin Yun's heaven-defying cultivation speed, Lin Yun's strength would have made rapid progress in a short period of time. Perhaps, when the invisible spatial node connecting the Immortal Origin Realm and the Netherworld Realm was opened, the Immortal Origin Realm and Earth would not have fallen into such a state..." At this moment, True Martial Saint King regretted it again.
This time, the regret far surpasses that of the previous times.
Because none of those attempts were 100% certain. Those were three Saint-level ghost cultivators. Even if Lin Yun started cultivating earlier, he might not have been able to catch up in time or have the strength to deal with those three Saint-level ghost cultivators.
However, if Lin Yun had broken through the new heaven of this universe six months earlier, he knew how terrifying a person's cultivation speed would become after absorbing and refining the power of the origin of the two realms. Coupled with Lin Yun's heaven-defying cultivation speed, the probability that Lin Yun's strength would surpass his was very, very high.
At that time, Lin Yun was fighting against three Saint-level ghost cultivators, and it was truly uncertain who would win or lose.
Furthermore, in that case, the Sage of Langya would not be able to stop Lin Yun from breaking through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe, and would not necessarily inflict the Netherworld Poison on him, or at least would not activate the Netherworld Poison in his body.
In that case, with his strength undiminished, joining forces with Lin Yun might truly be able to prevent that catastrophe.
"What a pity..." Zhenwu Saint King thought to himself, feeling extremely annoyed.
The Immortal Origin Holy Land and Earth held great significance for him. During this time, he had been filled with regret and self-blame for the destruction of the Immortal Origin Holy Land and Earth by those ghost cultivators, and the annihilation of countless lives on them.
Not to mention, although he and Lin Yun had been staying in this space for the past three months, he had also been very concerned about what was happening outside. He knew that in these three months, those ghost cultivators had caused great damage to this universe.
This universe is also his home universe!
If he could, he wouldn't want the universe to suffer this kind of damage!
If he hadn't insisted that Lin Yun cultivate to the third level of the Super Realm and then break through the new heaven of this universe, even after that catastrophe, three more months could have been saved. How many lives in this universe could have been saved in those three months?
Thinking of this, Zhenwu Shengjun felt even more regretful and remorseful.
"Such a vast and terrifying power of heaven and earth..." Lin Yun was deeply shocked as he looked at the ever-expanding power of heaven and earth before him.
Such immense power of heaven and earth could almost change the world. At this moment, Lin Yun finally understood that perhaps the reason why so many people broke through to the Saint Realm and the Super Realm in the Immortal Origin Holy Land was so good was not just because of the environment there.
There should be many other places where new heavens were broken, which is why the Immortal Origin Holy Land is located.
Lin Yun thought to himself.
"The level of these forces of heaven and earth is extremely high. If they continue to flow into this space for a long time, it might be possible to transform this space into an existence like the Immortal Origin Holy Land..." Lin Yun said in a low voice.
The matter he was talking about was not something he had imagined. He had heard Zhenwu Shengjun say several times that the energy that descended from heaven and earth when breaking through the new heaven would exceed the energy that descended from heaven and earth when breaking through all the previous heavens.
If that's the case, then the energy that descended from heaven and earth when he broke through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe would exceed the energy that descended from heaven and earth when the Dao Ancestor led so many people to break through all the previous heavens and earth. So, what's wrong with this space eventually becoming an existence like the Immortal Origin Holy Land?
If Lin Yun weren't unsure whether that Dao Ancestor had used other methods back then, he wouldn't doubt for a second that this space could very well become an existence surpassing even the Immortal Origin Holy Land!
Soon, Lin Yun closed his eyes and stopped thinking about it.
He felt a mysterious power surge into his body as he broke through the black rift, causing a dramatic change in his entire being. This change wasn't in terms of strength; it seemed to be a change in talent, or something else entirely.
With this change, the speed at which he absorbed the power of heaven and earth increased countless times. Coupled with the large amount of top-tier power of heaven and earth pouring in, his strength was growing rapidly.
Every minute and every second is changing dramatically.
He vaguely guessed that this mysterious power should be the fusion energy of the primordial power between this universe and the outside world that the True Martial Saint King had mentioned. This mysterious energy was indeed extraordinary.
He closed his eyes and began to carefully refine this mysterious energy, as well as the power of heaven and earth that was constantly and frantically surging into his body.
"No wonder, after breaking through to a new level, a person's cultivation speed increases extremely fast. Under such conditions, even a pig would cultivate at a fast pace..." Lin Yun thought to himself.
Five minutes... ten minutes... twenty minutes...
As soon as Lin Yun closed his eyes, Zhenwu Saint King also closed his eyes. A large amount of heaven and earth power surged into this space. He found that the Netherworld Water poison in his body was also being rapidly refined and eliminated. He quickly took advantage of this moment to use the useful items in those spatial items to quickly refine and eliminate the Netherworld Water.
This state lasted for an hour.
"Bang--"
Zhenwu Saint Lord was suddenly awakened by a loud noise. He quickly opened his eyes and saw that one of the large formations that he and Lin Yun had set up earlier had collapsed.
"not good!"
The True Martial Saint King's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in disbelief.
At this moment, the commotion of the power of heaven and earth surging from the black crack not only did not diminish, but actually grew larger. It could be seen that the formation he and Lin Yun had previously set up had begun to collapse.
If things continue like this, other formations are probably not far from collapsing as well.
Next, there will be the array set up here by the Dao Ancestor, and then this space...
This space is far less powerful than the space of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, and he estimates that it is unlikely to withstand this commotion!
At that time, the commotion here would probably be sensed by those powerful ghost cultivators, and he and Lin Yun would have to leave this place as soon as possible!
“The thirty-fourth heaven was only recently broken. It’s still uncertain when Lin Yun will finish absorbing the power of the two realms’ origins. Now is precisely the time when Lin Yun’s strength is rapidly increasing. Every minute and second is crucial…” True Martial Saint King gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
As he spoke, he stepped forward, rapidly forming hand seals and throwing out materials to begin setting up a defensive formation.
In fact, he had just discovered that the formation he and Lin Yun had set up could not stop these commotions for long. The reason it hadn't collapsed earlier was simply because the commotions weren't too great at the time and hadn't affected the formations much.
Now, the commotion here has increased many times over, and it is no longer something that the defensive formation he and Lin Yun set up can effectively withstand.
However, just as he had thought, every minute and every second was extremely important to Lin Yun. The defensive formation he was setting up at this moment was meaningful even if it could buy Lin Yun just one more minute or second.
"boom--"
Two minutes later, another defensive formation collapsed.
A minute and a half later, another defensive formation collapsed.
At this moment, Zhenwu Shengjun also successfully set up a defensive formation.
Time passed again, second by second...
Lin Yun closed his eyes and practiced at dual speeds.
He could actually sense what was happening in the outside world. If he could, he really didn't want True Martial Saint to do this. In a short period of time, True Martial Saint's strength had recovered a lot. Obviously, this environment was also very beneficial for True Martial Saint to recover his strength.
Removing the poison from the Netherworld Water is extremely important for True Martial Saint Lord.
However, he knew that now was not the time for him to be sentimental; improving his strength was the most important thing.
"Faster! Faster!" Lin Yun said anxiously, his eyes closed.
"boom--"
In the blink of an eye, another hour passed, and the defensive formations set up by Lin Yun and Zhenwu Shengjun completely collapsed, including a half-finished defensive formation that Zhenwu Shengjun was setting up.
"puff!"
Because he was setting up an array, a huge force suddenly affected his area and collapsed the unfinished array. This caused Zhenwu Shengjun to be injured, and he was sent flying backward, spitting out a lot of blood.
"Boom!"
Subsequently, the Daoist Ancestor Li Er set up an array outside to block these disturbances.
At this moment, the array formation skills of Dao Ancestor Li Er also became apparent. The array formation he left behind was significantly more powerful than the array formations set up by Lin Yun and Zhenwu Saint Lord.
This immediately prevented the noise from spreading.
This is quite normal. Lin Yun and Zhenwu Saint Monarch had too little time to set up the formation, and they didn't manage to create a powerful one. Perhaps the Dao Ancestor had more time to set up the formation back then.
However, the commotion here escalated too quickly. Even with the time allotted by Dao Ancestor Li Er, it only lasted for another hour.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the array left behind in this space by Dao Ancestor Li Er completely collapsed.
Then, an even bigger commotion quickly spread to the surrounding walls of this space.
"boom--"
What happened next quickly dashed the hopes of Zhenwu Saint King. The surrounding walls of this space did not hold for long; they collapsed in just a few breaths.
Then, like a domino effect, an incomparably powerful force of heaven and earth spread rapidly in all directions, unstoppable, tearing apart all the old spaces in its path and replacing them with an absolute darkness.
This pitch-black space was the black rift that Lin Yun had previously cleaved open; however, at this moment, the black rift had become infinitely large.
At that moment, the black space was rapidly fading, turning white, and then becoming transparent, until it resembled a new space. However, this new space was quite different.
More powerful, more robust, more solid...
"Is this the breaking of the new heaven, the merging of the new heaven's power into this universe, and the transformation of heaven and earth? Such a huge change, no wonder, when a new heaven is broken, it is the beginning of a new era..." Lin Yun opened his eyes, looked at the scene before him, and said in a low voice.
"Lin Yun! This space has been broken. The changes here will soon be discovered by those powerful ghost cultivators. We must leave quickly. How is your absorption and refinement of the power of the two realms coming along?" At this moment, True Martial Saint King flashed to Lin Yun's side, looking at him anxiously.
