Chapter 257 Arrival, Space's "Lunchbox"
With Uncle Jiu's matter resolved, Lin Yuan then looked at Tu Shan Ya Ya's message.
This girl has been complaining in the group chat since earlier, saying things like, "I don't understand Rongrong's plan at all," "My older sister is ignoring me again," and "Why do I have to learn all this annoying stuff?"
[Lin Yuan: @My dearest sister, Ya Ya, what's wrong with you again?]
[My favorite older sister: Brother Lin Yuan!]
The little fox's voice was filled with grievance.
[My favorite older sister: Rongrong said I need to learn some political maneuvering, and that I should become the leader of the Demon Alliance in the future, instead of just fighting like before.]
[My dearest older sister: But all that stuff is so difficult! Balancing power, winning people over, dividing and weakening... it's giving me a headache!]
[My dearest older sister: Rongrong won't help me, and my older sister is ignoring me. I'm so pitiful...]
Lin Yuan couldn't help but chuckle as he read the message from the little fox.
Tu Shan Ya Ya, the future leader of the Demon Alliance, puts on the appearance of an ice goddess, but who would have thought that she would have such a childlike side?
However, the nine-tailed celestial fox who took on the responsibility of Tushan in the memory copy was also a hands-off manager, so it was indeed a bit unreasonable for Rongrong to ask her to learn the art of political maneuvering.
[Lin Yuan: Ya Ya, your sister and Rong Rong are doing this for your own good.]
[Lin Yuan: In the future, you will lead Tushan, and even the entire Demon Alliance. Just being good at fighting isn't enough.]
[Lin Yuan: But you don't need to rush. Just learn slowly, and you'll improve eventually.]
The three Tu Shan sisters all know what happened in the memory copy, but they don't want the group members to interfere too much with what's happening in their world.
Therefore, they had all prepared for the worst, thinking that if things couldn't be changed, they would continue to let Ya Ya carry the flag, which was also the root of the little fox's troubles.
[My favorite older sister: But it's really hard...]
[My dearest older sister: Brother Lin Yuan, could you please talk to Rongrong and tell her to stop pressuring me?]
Lin Yuan: I don't know her, so I can't help you with that. But I can give you a little suggestion.
[My dearest older sister: What's your suggestion?]
[Lin Yuan: The answer has already been shown to you in the memory instance.]
[My dearest older sister: What do you mean?]
[Lin Yuan: Just do what you're good at, and leave the things that require thinking to Rongrong. Isn't that the approach your sister is using right now?]
[My dearest older sister: This... will Rongrong agree? She also saw the memory copy I created using demonic power before asking me to learn it.]
Lin Yuan: Let's give it a try first.
[Lin Yuan: Although there's a saying that "when pushed to the limit, people can do anything," this certainly doesn't include math problems, and different people have different talents.]
[Lin Yuan: Besides, you're just a little fox. If Rongrong pushes you too far, she'll only gain a second sister who has mastered absolute zero, not a wise and brave nine-tailed fox.]
[My dearest older sister: Hmm...]
[My dearest older sister: Although I don't think you're really praising me, thank you anyway, Brother Lin Yuan.]
Lin Yuan: You're welcome.
……
After finishing the group chat matters, Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"These guys are all incredibly troublesome."
He shook his head, his consciousness returning to his body.
Afterwards, he will go to the Super God Universe to rescue Queen Keisha and bring her back.
Then go to the world of Shrouding the Heavens to help Ye Fan locate the coordinates of Earth or Mars.
Finally, I need to go check on Uncle Nine's situation.
"There's quite a lot going on."
Lin Yuan stood up and looked into the distance.
"But before that, let's create the ultimate secret technique first."
The battle of the Lord of the Universe relies on a profound understanding of the laws and a masterful application of secret techniques.
Although Lin Yuan has broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, his ultimate secret technique is still at the level of the Overlord of the Universe, and there is still a gap between him and the true Lord of the Universe.
He needed an opportunity, a chance to elevate his understanding of combat to a higher level.
"Go into seclusion."
……
Deep within the Temple of the Guardian Beast God.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, the Burning Heaven Spear resting horizontally on his lap. The crimson-gold secret patterns flowing on the spear body echoed the law patterns on the walls of the quiet room.
Although he now possesses the combat power of a third-tier universe master, he relies on the overwhelming power of his divine power at the gene level of over eight thousand times and the advantage of his collection of supreme treasures. His secret techniques are still at the level of a universe overlord.
"We must create our own secret method for becoming the Lord of the Universe as soon as possible."
He closed his eyes, and countless battle scenes flashed through his mind.
The fierce battle with Venerable Jin Feng, the soul collision with Lord Xingyan, the sword formation contest with Lord Qingxuan... each battle deepened his understanding of the Fire-Void Fusion Law.
With the guidance of the Mountain Hermit, the evolution of that crimson-gold flame revealed the essence of fire and space to the fullest extent.
"Flame and space are two sides of the same coin."
With a thought, Lin Yuan felt a point of crimson-gold light condense at the tip of his spear.
That is the manifestation of the law of fire and space fusion, a power formed by the intertwining of flames and space.
The light grew brighter and larger, eventually transforming into a fist-sized ball of crimson-gold light.
Inside the sphere of light, flames burned and space trembled; the two were inseparable, forming a unified whole.
"Not enough."
Lin Yuan shook his head, and the ball of light dissipated.
Although the power of this ball of light far exceeds that of secret techniques at the level of a cosmic overlord, it is still far from the ultimate secret technique of a true cosmic master.
"We need stronger compression and more extreme integration."
He closed his eyes again, his consciousness sinking into a deeper level of understanding.
Time slipped away quietly in the quiet room.
One year, ten years, a hundred years...
Lin Yuan was completely immersed in the creation of the secret technique, and everything outside was cut off.
Inside the quiet room, the crimson-gold light flickered, and the fluctuations of the laws varied in strength.
Every alternation of light and dark signifies a new attempt; every change in strength represents a new breakthrough.
However, the creation of the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe was far more difficult than Lin Yuan had expected. Thousands of years have passed and he still has not been able to take that crucial step.
It's not that I lack talent, but rather that my experience and knowledge are still limited.
He broke through to the level of the Lord of the Universe in too short a time, and his understanding of the laws of fusion is not yet sufficient. He needs more comprehension and accumulation.
"It can't be rushed."
……
On this day, in the quiet room.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to continue his meditation, a series of message notifications suddenly came from the chat group in his mind.
He raised an eyebrow and his consciousness drifted into the group chat interface.
[Angel Yan: @Lin Yuan, Urgent! Black Wind completed its first dream invasion of Lena yesterday!]
[Angel Yan: According to the timeline of the memory copy, the Taotie will soon launch a large-scale invasion of Earth, and the Battle of Tianhe is about to break out.]
[Angel Yan: The Queen's faked death plan will be executed soon. I hope you can come and prepare as soon as possible.]
Messages kept coming in, each one filled with obvious urgency.
Lin Yuan looked at the discussion in the group and quickly made a decision in his mind.
Keisha's faked death is a crucial turning point in the original story and a key factor in the shift in the Super God Universe's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall structure or overall structure of the universe).
With his help, Keisha doesn't actually have to be blown to pieces, but she still has to keep up the act.
Looks like I'll have to head there earlier.
While the creation of the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe is important, it is not something that can be rushed.
Yan's matter cannot be delayed, and Ye Fan and Uncle Jiu are also waiting for him to deal with it.
"Let's get things done in the Super God Universe first."
Lin Yuan created a clone of divine power.
With his current strength, even a single divine clone possesses the combat power of a cosmic overlord, enough to handle any situation in the Super God Universe.
With a thought, he used the cross-dimensional teleportation function of the chat group to send a teleportation request directly to Angel Yan.
……
In the Super God Universe, outside Earth, in Keisha's temporary palace.
Keisha sat high on her throne, with He Xi standing beside her, while Yan and Zhi Xin waited anxiously below.
Just then, Yan's expression suddenly changed.
"Your Majesty, Lin Yuan has sent a cross-disciplinary application, and he is ready."
"Then please invite this Lord of Destiny to come over." Keisha stood up.
As soon as he finished speaking, the space in front of him began to distort, and a vortex tunnel slowly took shape.
A moment later, a figure stepped out of the passage.
Lin Yuan, clad in dark gold armor, exuded a restrained aura, yet everyone present felt an invisible pressure.
That was the pressure emanating from a higher level of life essence.
Keisha's pupils contracted slightly; she could clearly sense that her opponent's strength far surpassed her own.
"Lord of Destiny." She nodded slightly. "I've long admired you."
"Queen Keisha." Lin Yuan nodded in return.
His gaze swept over everyone present, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly raised an eyebrow.
"Um?"
He sensed a strange force approaching him.
That power was formless and intangible, yet it seemed to be everywhere, like some kind of detection method.
Lin Yuan did not move.
The moment that power touched the fire of laws surrounding him, it was completely evaporated by the crimson-gold light.
After it was erased, a large number of information fragments were separated from that power and refined into pure data streams by the fire of law, which then flowed into Lin Yuan's consciousness.
Lin Yuan closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then opened them with a strange expression.
"It seems you... no longer need to carry out the fake death plan."
Keisha was taken aback: "What do you mean?"
Lin Yuan raised his hand, and a ball of crimson-gold light appeared in his palm, within which some blurry images and words could be vaguely seen.
"Just now, a nebula-like object tried to approach me," Lin Yuan explained, "but it was instantly annihilated by my Law Fire."
"Before it was erased, I intercepted some of its information stored in the dark dimension."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the four angels present: "It is the Space Principal of your Super God Academy."
"What?" Yan exclaimed in surprise.
He Xi's expression also changed.
Although Keisha maintained a calm demeanor, her fingers tightened slightly on the armrest of the throne.
The Space Principal, founder of the Super God Academy, is one of the most mysterious beings in the known universe.
He actually...died? He just died so inexplicably?
"How did he end up here?" He Xi asked in a deep voice.
"He has been observing you all along," Lin Yuan said calmly. "Your angels' recent behavior is too abnormal, completely inconsistent with the trajectory he predicted."
"From the moment you stopped using the Galactic Force as the angels' future support as planned, and from the moment you drove Morgana to the Japanese archipelago, he shifted his focus from Earth to the angels."
"He's been watching from the shadows, trying to figure out why you've changed so much."
"And today, he saw something he shouldn't have seen."
Lin Yuan's lips curled into a smile: "He tried to analyze my information, but ended up getting himself involved."
A brief silence fell over the palace.
Yan opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Although she had long known that the Super God Academy was no ordinary institution, she never imagined that the legendary Space Principal had been secretly observing the angels all along.
Moreover, he can even predict future trajectories?
"Lin Yuan, what do you mean by the deduced trajectory?" Yan couldn't help but ask.
Lin Yuan glanced at her and casually tossed the ball of light in his hand into the air.
The sphere of light exploded, and countless fragments of information coalesced into a giant projection in the center of the palace.
Countless images flickered on the projection screen.
There's a war between angels and demons, scenes of the Taotie invading Earth, the growth trajectory of the Super Soldier Corps members, and Karl's plans in the Styx Galaxy...
Every scene is crystal clear, as if it had been written long ago and was just waiting to unfold step by step.
"This is the message left by the Space Principal," Lin Yuan said, pointing to the projection. "Through his control over the dark dimension, he deduced the future trajectory of the known universe."
"Do you understand now? Why Karl could predict the angels' actions so accurately? Why Morgana could always avoid your encirclement?"
"Because all your information has already been leaked."
Keisha's gaze darkened.
She finally understood why the war between angels and demons had never truly ended over the years.
Why is it that Morgana always manages to escape just when she thinks victory is assured?
It wasn't just that she couldn't bear to actually kill the other person, nor was it that Liang Bing was lucky; rather, someone had been tipping her off the whole time.
"So, the methods Karl used to deal with me in the memory copy were also taught to him by the Space Principal?" Keisha asked.
"Most likely," Lin Yuan nodded. "Although Karl is intelligent, how can his power in the known universe compare to that of the angels? There is a lot of information that he cannot access."
"But the Space Principal is different. He possesses the knowledge accumulated by the Super God Academy over countless years, and his control over the Dark Dimension is unparalleled."
"With his behind-the-scenes manipulation, Karl was able to gradually set up a deadly trap to defeat you."
"And now, he's dead."
Lin Yuan spread his hands: "I have intercepted all the information he left in the dark dimension. It contains the list and plans of all the monsters and demons you need."
"Keisha, you can just lead your angel army and crush them right now."
