North Sea Island.
The Tenth Realm powerhouses chatted leisurely, occasionally glancing at the ‘Eye of the North Sea,’ which had shrunk to a hundred meters across.
Over these hundred-plus years, their lives had been both comfortable and shocking.
It was comforting that they no longer had to guard the Eye of the North Sea and didn’t have to face the profound depths that seemed as unfathomable as the abyss.
And watching the Eye of the North Sea shrink day by day was a pleasure to their spirits.
As for the shock… it all came from one person.
The ‘mysterious superior being,’ who surpassed their tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years of achievements with his own power alone.
Over these hundred-plus years, that mysterious superior being sat above the Eye of the North Sea, his two Primordial Spirits having reached a million zhang tall, each standing on opposite ends of the Eye of the North Sea.
“I’m telling you, I almost personally received the superior being. If it wasn’t for Master Nalan and the vice masters taking the limelight, I probably would’ve been the first to speak with the superior being,” a chubby man boasted proudly, not mentioning his initial thought, which was to remind Lin Yuan to keep a low profile when coming to North Sea Island.

“Who knows what background this superior being comes from, how such a powerful being was born…” a slim Tenth Realm powerhouse couldn’t help but mutter.
True dragons can’t be raised in shallow waters; this is common knowledge to cultivators. But the mysterious superior being who completely suppressed the Eye of the North Sea, relative to them, was much more than a ‘true dragon,’ wasn’t he?
Let alone the superior being himself, just the two million-zhang-tall Primordial Spirits he had sent out made them tremble in their hearts and minds.
“Alright, Master Nalan and the vice masters have already said not to discuss the superior being in private; violators will be punished,” a stern-looking Tenth Realm powerhouse said in a low voice.
“I was just saying, I didn’t speak ill of the superior being,” the slim Tenth Realm powerhouse immediately shook his head.
“Besides, if Master Nalan and the vice masters forbid us from discussing him, do you think they don’t talk about that mysterious superior being themselves?” he couldn’t help but say.
“If Master Nalan and the vice masters have forbidden it, they definitely abide by it themselves,” spoke the stern-looking Tenth Realm powerhouse earnestly.
…
“What do you think, how strong is the superior being? Fourteenth Realm? Or Fifteenth Realm?” Inside the Beihaidao ‘A’ Grade Cave Mansion, Master Nalan and several vice masters also gazed in the direction of the Eye of the North Sea.
One of the vice masters thus expressed his astonishment.
The higher their strength and realm, the more they could feel the terror of Lin Yuan, freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Such a dreadfully powerful force, far transcending the limits of this world, curbed any thought of resistance in them.
“Not sure,”
“But I think, the superior being must have already transcended the divisions of realms. The heights at which the superior being resides are indescribable and incomprehensible to us,” said another vice master in a low voice.
“No wonder ‘Heavenly Dao’ hinted that we should comply and heed the superior being’s words…” a third vice master pondered with a contemplative expression.
Master Nalan looked calmly at the distant Eye of the North Sea.
Most of his time over the past hundred-plus years had been spent watching the Eye of the North Sea slowly vanish, and Master Nalan’s concerns faded little by little.
“After our generation, countless generations of descendants will never have to face the threat of the Eye of the North Sea…”
Master Nalan’s awe for Lin Yuan grew greater, almost to the point of outright reverence.
“It’s just…”
There was always one doubt in Master Nalan’s heart.
Why was the Heavenly Earth Vital Energy still flowing unceasingly towards the North Sea even though the Eye of the North Sea had been completely sealed?
…
Above the Eye of the North Sea.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
Ever since the Eye of the North Sea had shrunk to ten thousand li.
He recalled his Yin God and Yang Spirit back into his body because he alone could suppress the Eye of the North Sea at this scale.
“This is really comfortable…”
Lin Yuan looked quite pleased.
He didn’t fully suppress the Eye of the North Sea but left a small gap, allowing it to continue inhaling and exhaling the Heavenly Earth Vital Energy of this world.
As the boundless Heavenly Earth Vital Energy arrived here, it was naturally ‘snatched up’ by Lin Yuan for cultivation.
In other words, for these one hundred twenty years, the Eye of the North Sea had been working entirely for Lin Yuan, gaining not the slightest benefit and continually shrinking.
“Eighteenth Realm…”
Lin Yuan breathed out softly; by then he had reached the Eighteenth Realm.
Of course, the Eighteenth Realm is a term from this world. According to the Human Civilization Alliance of the main world, it would be considered Sixth Rank, twelfth level.
“What a pity,”
“Stepping into the Sixth Rank isn’t something that can be solved just with Primordial Qi…” Lin Yuan mused silently.
In the main world, advancing from the Fifth to the Sixth Rank is harder than the combined difficulty of advancing from the First to the Fifth Rank.
The Fifth Rank is the Continent-Sinking Rank, while the Sixth Rank is the Fallen Star Level; a qualitative change exists between them, and bridging that gap is no easy feat.
While there is the Fourth Rank as a cushion between the Third Rank City Destroyer Grade and the Fifth Rank Continent-Sinking Rank,
There is no such cushion between the Fifth and Sixth Rank; the evolver must break through on their own.
Even with a complete Evolution Path to guide them, it is incredibly challenging for ordinary evolvers, let alone Lin Yuan, the founder of the Martial Tao Evolutionary Path?
Although Lin Yuan had many Evolution Paths for reference, including those transcending the Sixth Rank and even the extremely mysterious Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path,
Taking reference is one thing, but continuing to create the Sixth Rank Chapter of the Martial Path Evolutionary Path is another matter entirely.
“It’s about time.”
Lin Yuan glanced at the Eye of the North Sea beneath him.
In fact, Lin Yuan had the power to completely seal the Eye of the North Sea already thirty to forty years ago.
