Virtual World, personal space.

Lin Yuan tasted the fine wine before him, smiling as he looked at Chikun Star Lord.

Lin Yuan still held a deep respect for Chikun Star Lord, even though his own strength had far surpassed the latter.

Before attaining the Eighth Layer, if it weren’t for Chikun Star Lord’s protection and support, Lin Yuan’s path of cultivation would not have been so smooth.

The three goddesses could only ensure that Lin Yuan wouldn’t be suppressed or troubled, but obtaining more cultivation resources would definitely require many sacrifices.

...
Such as signing personal contracts, joining the Human Evolution Institute, serving for many years, and the like.

To Lin Yuan, Chikun Star Lord was completely selfless in his support.

When Chikun Star Lord first took Lin Yuan as a little disciple, he probably couldn’t have imagined that the youngster would grow so quickly.

“I never imagined, the little guy from back then has now grown to such extent,” Chikun Star Lord said, his expression wistful.

Not long ago, Lin Yuan’s feat of plowing through numerous Eighth Layer invincibles with overwhelming might on the battlefield against the Tianyu Clan had, of course, reached Chikun Star Lord’s ears.

News of this event spread wildly within human civilization, and after confirmation by Ninth Rank Evolvers, there was no doubt about its authenticity; the shock in Chikun Star Lord’s heart was beyond recovery.

It was too incredible.

How exactly had Lin Yuan done it?

“It was all thanks to the teacher’s guidance,” Lin Yuan said with a grin.

“My guidance?” Chikun Star Lord couldn’t help but roll his eyes; ever since Lin Yuan became the master of the thirteenth peak, let alone guidance, there weren’t even many opportunities to meet.

Lin Yuan grew too quickly, so much so that Chikun Star Lord was often still planning growth stages for Lin Yuan when he had already stepped into the next level.

Chikun Star Lord didn’t even have time to teach.

Faced with a disciple who learned on his own, Chikun Star Lord didn’t know if he, as a mentor, should feel a sense of achievement.

The two chatted idly for a while.

Then, Chikun Star Lord brought up the matter at hand.

“My disciple, the Xuanhuang Secret Realm is about to open,” Chikun Star Lord said gravely.

“Xuanhuang Secret Realm?” Lin Yuan pondered.

“Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path?” Lin Yuan asked.

During Lin Yuan’s first challenge in the Seven Star Cave, it was precisely because he had comprehended the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path in the Seventh Star Cave that he was taken as a disciple by Chikun Star Lord.

Lin Yuan was deeply acquainted with this evolutionary path and had thoroughly understood it over the years.

However, precisely because he had fully comprehended it, Lin Yuan was sure that this path was not complete; it was only half.

The Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path that Lin Yuan possessed only went up to the Eighth Layer.

Lin Yuan faintly felt that the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path was not a pure evolutionary path; it seemed more like a kind of ‘primer’ or ‘key’.

“Yes,” he replied.

“The Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path, I obtained it from the Xuanhuang Secret Realm after a life and death struggle,” said Chikun Star Lord.

“I actually didn’t know the name of this evolutionary path, so I simply named it after the secret realm,” he explained.

“When I acquired this evolutionary path, I knew it was extraordinary, but unfortunately, I didn’t have the talent to cultivate it,” Chikun Star Lord shook his head gently.

That was exactly why he wanted to find a successor for this evolutionary path.

“I see,” Lin Yuan mused.

“My disciple, if possible, you can try to explore the Xuanhuang Secret Realm. I suspect that the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path is related to some relics in the secret realm,” Chikun Star Lord said earnestly.

The Xuanhuang Secret Realm was a rare large secret realm, inaccessible to those below the invincible Eighth Layer through its portal to the main space.

And due to the special nature of the secret realm, it could not accommodate Tenth Rank life forms; only the invincible Eighth Layer and Ninth Rank could enter.

Twenty thousand years ago, Chikun Star Lord, full of ambition, leveraged the talent of his true form, the Starry Sky Wanderer Kun, to dominate among the invincibles of the Eighth Layer.

However, he almost lost his life in the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

Of course, ‘dying’ here did not mean actual death; the Starry Sky Wanderer Kun had a ‘prime heart’, and as long as the prime heart wasn’t shattered, it didn’t count as a death.

Before entering the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, Chikun Star Lord had already left his ‘prime heart’ in the outside world.

But given the body size of the Starry Sky Wanderer Kun, once fallen, the energy needed to condense it back would be as immense as mountains and seas, causing Chikun Star Lord to go bankrupt.

“I will have a look when the time comes,” Lin Yuan nodded.

Chikun Star Lord had been to the Xuanhuang Secret Realm and knew more about it than Lin Yuan did.

He felt that Lin Yuan needed to explore it, surely for some reason.

“I won’t join in on the fuss this time when the Xuanhuang Secret Realm opens,” Chikun Star Lord shook his head.

There are great secrets within the Xuanhuang Secret Realm that even Supreme Beings keep an eye on frequently, but all of this had nothing to do with Chikun Star Lord now.

For Chikun Star Lord, advancing to the Ninth Rank is now most important.

What good would obtaining the great secrets of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm do if he wasn’t Ninth Rank?

Next, Chikun Star Lord gave Lin Yuan a few more words of caution and then stood up to leave.

His purpose in contacting Lin Yuan this time was to inform him about the origins of the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path.

This path was deeply connected to the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, and Chikun Star Lord believed Lin Yuan deserved to know.

…

Milky Way Main Star.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes, a contemplative look on his face.

“Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path…”

A peculiar light flashed through Lin Yuan’s eyes.

He had the Martial Path Evolutionary Path as his core evolutionary path, but he also practiced other evolutionary paths.

Among them, the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path was one of the ones Lin Yuan practiced.

As for the myriad Demonic Evolution Paths contained within the bodies of the strongest beings, those were fraught with hidden dangers; Lin Yuan only comprehended them, extracting their essence, without practicing them.

But the Xuan Huang Evolutionary Path was different; solid and complete, except for being incomplete, it had no other flaws.
