Chapter 247
Chapter 247
The other four invincible rank-eight individuals witnessed this.
They immediately realized that the Insect Race must know more crucial information or have deeper plans.
"Milky Way Star Lord is ranked seventh in the evaluation list of human geniuses under ten thousand years old, according to my clan."
The Hive's shadow spoke calmly.
"Seventh?"
The five invincible rank-eight individuals were shocked.
The Insect Race, as such a pinnacle race, have extremely stringent definitions of genius, and the list they compiled for human civilization considers many aspects.
For the Milky Way Star Lord to be ranked seventh, his capabilities in all aspects must be terrifying.
It should be known that for an invincible rank-eight under a hundred years old, it's difficult to achieve this ranking.
"The growth rate of the Milky Way Star Lord is too fast."The Hive's shadow did not elaborate further.
Although the Insect Race do not have a virtual world or three ultimate intelligent goddesses, they do have the top divination masters.
By collating various pieces of information, they deduced the potential of the Milky Way Star Lord, which is no less than the offspring of the strongest, those with special inheritances, and other human evolvers.
Ultimately, he was ranked seventh.
In fact, the Insect Race divination masters were unaware that the martial arts evolution path was created by Lin Yuan.
Strongest one Xia Qin knew about this and directly stated that Lin Yuan's talent could be ranked in the top twenty or top ten in the history of human civilization.
This is a historical ranking of humans, whereas the Insect Race list is only for this generation under ten thousand years old.
The two are not comparable at all.
If the Insect Race knew about Xia Qin's evaluation of Lin Yuan, they might break the truce again and use higher-level means to kill Lin Yuan.
A human genius ranked seventh in the current generation has little chance of becoming the strongest.
But a genius ranked in the top twenty or top ten in human history has a much greater chance of becoming the strongest.
Human civilization does not allow other pinnacle races to have an additional strongest, and the Insect Race do not want human civilization to have an additional strongest either.
In fact, even Strongest one Xia Qin underestimated Lin Yuan's talent.
In Xia Qin's view, Lin Yuan obtained an inheritance from a force outside the main world, which is how he knew about Devil Jade Tower.
That inheritance from outside the main world must include a lot of cultivation resources and encounters.
This is what made Lin Yuan what he is today.
But in reality, from the time Lin Yuan became an evolver to before he took charge of the Milky Way Star Domain, apart from the Gate of the Myriad Realms, he never had any unknown encounters.
"This assassination, I want you to completely kill the Milky Way Star Lord, so he cannot be resurrected."
The Hive's shadow sent out a mental wave.
"Cannot be resurrected?"
"Completely kill?"
The five invincible rank-eight individuals looked at each other.
Their expressions showed helplessness.
Given Lin Yuan's identity and strength, it's highly likely that the one stationed on the main star of the Milky Way is a clone.
The true body is probably in an extremely safe place.
Even if they join forces, the Milky Way Star Lord won't be able to resist, but to completely kill him, including his true body, is almost impossible.
No matter what, Lin Yuan is also rank-eight, on the same level as these invincible rank-eight individuals.
Some special methods, like curse killing, won't work at all.
Complete killing is impossible.
Not to mention making sure he can't be resurrected.
"Rest assured."
The Hive's shadow moved its mind slightly.
A cubic container appeared.
The cube was transparent, with mist swirling inside.
"This is the Poison of Memory."
"You five, join forces to control the Milky Way Star Lord's clone and inject this Poison of Memory into him."
"Then you don't need to worry about anything else."
The Hive's shadow sent out a mental wave.
"Poison of Memory?"
The five invincible rank-eight individuals were immediately startled.
The Poison of Memory is a very special rare item that can destroy and distort a creature on the memory level.
As everyone knows, with the clone technique, the true body and the clone share memories. If the clone is injected with the Poison of Memory, then the true body's memories will also be polluted and distorted.
At that time, even if the strongest intervene and reverse the flow of time to resurrect him, it will be meaningless.
The principle of resurrection is that the strongest use the time rules to reverse time and pull the deceased from the past to the present.
Thus achieving 'resurrection'.
But no matter which time period is returned to, the moment the deceased is resurrected, they will sync with the universe and receive all their memories up to their moment of death.
This means that even if the strongest go back to a time before the memory was polluted, when the resurrected person syncs with the universe, their memories will still be polluted again.
"To deal with a mere human rank-eight, even a super genius, using the Poison of Memory…"
An invincible rank-eight muttered.
The Poison of Memory is extremely precious, requiring the strongest to put in effort and pay a price to create it.
Even with the Insect Race's resources, they likely don't have much of the Poison of Memory.
"As long as one is in the top ten of the list our clan created, they qualify to use the Poison of Memory."
The Hive's shadow said.
"However, given the Milky Way Star Lord's potential, he must have a life-saving item. You five must go all out and not give him any chance."
The Hive's shadow reminded them.
The Poison of Memory is indeed terrifying, but it only targets memories.
Any other power, even a trace, can destroy the Poison of Memory.
Therefore, only if the five invincible rank-eight individuals completely subdue the Milky Way Star Lord, cutting off all resistance, can they use the Poison of Memory.
Milky Way Main Star.
Lin Yuan entered his inner world.
"The Heart of Thunder."
Lin Yuan slowly integrated the eight-rank top-grade cosmic treasure he acquired for twelve thousand universe crystals into his inner world.
Whoosh.
Strands of purple lightning began to fill the vast inner world, spanning over two million miles.
The purple lightning was filled with destructive intent, yet also brimmed with vibrant life, making the entire inner world suddenly feel much more real.
"Worthy of the Heart of Thunder."
Lin Yuan felt the changes in his inner world.
A look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
Even among cosmic treasures, there are significant differences.
Cosmic treasures like the Heart of Thunder clearly surpass those like the Primal Fire.
This can be seen from their value.
"My current strength should be in the first tier below invincible rank-eight." Lin Yuan thought to himself.
"But still, the Yin rule is a bit behind in understanding."
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in his inner world, his thoughts churning.
Since the fourth rank, Lin Yuan has been comprehending the Yin and Yang rules.
In the fifth, sixth, seventh, and now the eighth rank, the Yang rule has always been far ahead.
Furthermore, the Yin and Yang rules forming Tai Chi are complementary, so even if his understanding of the Yin rule is slightly weaker, it has little impact on Lin Yuan.
This led to Lin Yuan's understanding of the Yin rule lagging behind the Yang rule significantly.
Even after fully comprehending the Yang rule, the conversion between Yin and Yang through Tai Chi still couldn't quickly grasp the Yin rule.
"No rush."
"I can feel it's close."
"Soon, within a few years, maybe a decade."
Lin Yuan knew.
Other evolvers need to break through countless bottlenecks to comprehend the Yin rule.
But he has the Yang rule conversion, facing almost no bottlenecks, making it smooth sailing.
"Divine Sealing Bead."
Lin Yuan glanced at the life-saving item given by Xia Qin.
The Divine Sealing Bead guards the mind and will, encompassing one's memories. Xia Qin's intention was that even if the strongest attacked, the Divine Sealing Bead could block them for an instant, giving Lin Yuan a chance to self-destruct.
But it doesn't mean the Divine Sealing Bead only activates when the strongest attacks.
Any threat to Lin Yuan's mind, will, or memory would be blocked by the Divine Sealing Bead.
Of course, heart demons during tribulations are not included.
Milky Way Main Star Palace.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, red flames burning wildly within him.
It's unknown how much time passed.
Lin Yuan opened his eyes.
"My body hasn't collapsed?"
According to the information from the mysterious gourd.
The prerequisite for fully absorbing the liquid from the gourd is that the body must remain intact until the end.
Many times before, Lin Yuan's body constantly turned to dust, finally relying on the "Blood Rebirth" ability to return.
But now.
Lin Yuan's body held up.
"Indeed, a 3.33 times enhancement."
Lin Yuan carefully sensed his body and inner world, drawing a conclusion.
Now, his inner world was vast, nearly 2.7 million miles in circumference.
This was because, during this period, Lin Yuan comprehended more space models, leading to the basic size of his inner world exceeding 800,000 miles.
Then it expanded by 3.33 times, resulting in the current nearly 2.7 million miles size.
"I can now crush ordinary rank-eight peaks with just my inner world."
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.
The normal inner world of a rank-eight peak is about 400,000 miles in circumference.
400,000 miles?
2.7 million miles?
Not just crushing.
"Continue."
"Let's see the orange liquid."
Lin Yuan's eyes brightened as he looked at the gray-red gourd before him.
The gray-red gourd can condense seven kinds of liquid, divided by color into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple.
Lin Yuan had completely absorbed the red liquid.
Next, it was the turn of the orange liquid.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan immediately reached out, holding the gray-red gourd, and tilted the spout down.
Perhaps because Lin Yuan's right hand touched it, the originally gray-red gourd slowly changed.
The red faded, replaced by yellow.
Gray-yellow gourd.
Drip.
An orange liquid gathered at the spout.
"Beautiful."
Lin Yuan watched the orange liquid, feeling like it was a miniature universe.
After observing for a while.
Lin Yuan directly swallowed the orange liquid.
Rumble.
The orange liquid turned into flames, quickly spreading throughout Lin Yuan's body.
Hiss.
In an instant, Lin Yuan's body turned to ashes.
After several breaths.
The "Blood Rebirth" ability activated, and Lin Yuan returned from the ashes.
"This?"
Lin Yuan was confused.
"The enhancement is too great for me to handle?"
After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan came to a conclusion.
"It seems I need at least a five-million-mile inner world to withstand the enhancement from the orange liquid?"
Lin Yuan thought.
Unlike the enhancement from comprehending space rules.
The liquid from the mysterious gourd forcibly enhances, breaking some limits to do so.
Therefore, the progress cannot be too fast.
Lin Yuan must have a sufficient foundation to bear the enhancement.
"A five-million-mile inner world isn't difficult for me."
Outside the Milky Way Main Star.
Five figures were hidden in the depths of space.
"This planet has undergone B-level transformation. Even if we take action, it can block for a few breaths."
The leading invincible rank-eight said.
These few breaths might alert the Milky Way Star Lord, causing him to self-destruct his clone.
If that happens, their mission will fail.
Though they won't be punished by the Insect Race, the rewards will certainly have nothing to do with them.
"What do we do now?"
The second invincible rank-eight frowned, The Milky Way Star Lord is inside the planet, though billions of miles away, for invincible rank-eight, it's like being right next door.
Of course, the B-level transformation of the Milky Way Main Star can block teleportation. They can only teleport outside the planet.
"Wait."
"Wait for the Milky Way Star Lord to come out on his own."
The leading invincible rank-eight continued: "We only have one chance. If the Milky Way Star Lord senses something is wrong, it's over."
Hearing this.
The four invincible rank-eight slightly nodded.
The Milky Way Star Lord's strength isn't as great as any of them.
But the Milky Way Star Lord doesn't need to fight them, just successfully self-destructing his clone would leave them helpless.
Although the Milky Way Star Lord is young, he isn't foolish. Realizing that five invincible rank-eight are ambushing him, he would deduce they have a means to affect his true body.
If it were only to kill a clone, why deploy five invincible rank-eight?
Even on the frontier, deploying invincible rank-eight is far less costly than in the human civilization heartland.
In the frontier, invincible rank-eight can retreat safely after an assassination.
But in the human civilization heartland, even rank-nine experts are doomed if their presence is exposed.
But what status do invincible rank-eight have? Deploying five at once? Even pinnacle races wouldn't waste resources this way. The only possibility is to kill both clone and true body.
"Yes, we only have one chance."
"We must seize it."
The five invincible rank-eight exchanged glances.
They began to wait patiently.
As long as the Milky Way Star Lord doesn't realize they're ambushing him.
Eventually, he'll come out.
Then, their opportunity will come.
Thinking this, the five invincible rank-eight felt slightly heated inside.
If the mission succeeds, the Insect Race rewards might help them take the next step.
Thus.
The five invincible rank-eight waited outside the Milky Way Main Star for ten years.
