"Only one person can reach the 'Heavenly Gate'?" Lin Yuan asked.
"That's correct," Deputy Tower Master Nalan confird with a nod.
According to the information he had gathered, every ti the Heavenly Gate opens, it marks the bloodiest and most violent period on the entire continent.
During this ti, even Witch Emperor-level beings fall like rain, as everyone desires to enter the Heavenly Gate.
As for the Witch Ancestor? Not every era produces a Witch Ancestor.
However, if there is a Witch Ancestor alive during the ti when the Heavenly Gate opens, there is no doubt that the one who will ultimately stand before the gate will be the Witch Ancestor.
Before the many strong beings from the main universe descended into this two-dinsional world, the Witch Ancestor was the most powerful being on the continent.
"When was the last ti the Heavenly Gate opened?" Lin Yuan imdiately inquired.
"Nine thousand eight hundred years ago," Deputy Tower Master Nalan replied. When he first heard about the 'Heavenly Gate,' he had paid close attention to this information and had already thoroughly investigated it.
"So, the next ti the Heavenly Gate opens will be in three hundred years?" Lin Yuan frowned.
This was not good news.
If there were no other strong beings from the main universe, Lin Yuan was confident that he would be the one to stand before the Heavenly Gate.
But in reality, in this two-dinsional world, there were more than three hundred eleventh-rank beings from the main universe alone.
Eleventh-rank beings have extrely fast 'thought processing' speeds, and even if their insight isn't as great as Lin Yuan's, given only three hundred years, Lin Yuan wasn't certain he could outclass all the eleventh-rank beings.
Especially those who had reached the sixth tier of eleventh-rank pinnacle life, beings on the verge of becoming ultimate beings—they were already perfect in every aspect.
Insight is an ability that gives a greater advantage the more ti one has.
Judging by the ti the Heavenly Gate is expected to open, the next ti after that will be in ten thousand three hundred years.
In the two-dinsional world, without the ability to comprehend rules or open up an internal world, lifespan is very limited.
Lin Yuan was not confident that he could last ten thousand three hundred years.
And if he died in the two-dinsional world, whether by being killed or dying of old age, it would result in a fundantal loss.
"Does the Strongest One know about this?" Lin Yuan asked imdiately.
"I've already inford the Strongest One," Deputy Tower Master Nalan nodded.
The matter of the Heavenly Gate wasn't exactly a secret, and even if Deputy Tower Master Nalan hadn't ntioned it, Lin Yuan would have learned about it soon enough.
"The Strongest One's advice is to do our best," Deputy Tower Master Nalan said.
Lin Yuan remained silent.
In just a few words, he could sense a certain brutal competition.
The opponents of human civilization's evolvers were actually those special life forms.
Especially those eleventh-rank pinnacle beings who had reached the sixth tier. As special life forms, they were terrifyingly gifted and talented, making it difficult for others to compete with them under the sa starting conditions.
Inside the world of the white paper.
Lin Yuan's mind recalled the cultivation thods that Deputy Tower Master Nalan had provided.
"There are thirteen sets of cultivation thods in total, with six of them having the potential to be cultivated to the Witch Emperor level, while the remaining seven can be cultivated to the Witch King level."
Lin Yuan carefully read through them.
Although he had already reached the Witch King level using a cultivation thod he had temporarily created with his Unrivaled Insight based on his body's needs, compared to these thods, which had been passed down for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, his thod inevitably had so shortcomings.
It wasn't that Lin Yuan's temporarily created thod was inferior to these ancient ones, but that it lacked the thorough consideration of finer details.
As he read through the thirteen cultivation thods, Lin Yuan's body began to tremble slightly, making slight adjustnts based on these thods.
"Witch King-level beings can split mountains and rocks, Witch Emperor-level beings can punch through mountain ranges, and Witch Sovereign-level beings can tear apart hundreds of miles of land with a single step. As for Witch Ancestor-level beings, there are no clear records."
"This is because Witch Ancestor-level beings have never fought with their full strength."
Lin Yuan pondered the cultivation system of this world as he continued to study the thods.
"I wonder how those eleventh-rank beings are doing now?"
Lin Yuan looked off into the distance, lost in thought.
In a prival forest.
A three-ter-tall figure stood on the treetops, emitting an aura that made the fierce beasts within a radius of dozens of miles tremble.
"I've finally cultivated to the Witch King level," the three-ter-tall figure said coldly. "I am a mighty eleventh-rank ancient god, destined to beco an ultimate being in the future."
"If this clone were to die here, causing a fundantal loss in my spiritual will, the ti to reach the ultimate rank would be indefinitely delayed."
The three-ter-tall figure couldn't accept such a consequence. "Three hundred years until the Heavenly Gate opens? Only one person can stand before the gate and leave this world?"
The figure narrowed its eyes slightly.
"Three hundred years. For the next three hundred years, I will imrse myself in this world and do everything possible to maximize my strength."
In the next instant, the three-ter-tall figure disappeared into the distance.
In an ordinary gathering place.
The ancient god Tuoba disguised himself as an ordinary human, walking through the streets.
"I should never have agreed to the Insect Race's request," Tuoba Ancient God thought regretfully.
Ever since he had offended the Milky Way Star Lord, his luck had turned sour. First, he had completely opposed human civilization.
And now, he had fallen into this two-dinsional world.
If it weren't for considering his escape route, how could he have agreed to the Insect Race's invitation to co to the battlefield? If he hadn't been on the battlefield, he wouldn't have been sucked into this two-dinsional world.
"But there's no point in regretting now."
"The most important thing now is to increase my strength as much as possible before the Heavenly Gate opens in three hundred years," Tuoba Ancient God thought to himself, steadying his resolve.
Originally, he had planned to attempt the ultimate breakthrough within ten million years, but if he perished in this two-dinsional world, causing a decline in his spiritual will, there would be no hope of succeeding.
"I'm just one step away from advancing to the Witch Emperor level," a four-ard man stood on a calm sea, his aura spreading like a deep abyss in all directions.
"Even the Strongest One would have difficulty killing . There's no way I'll perish in this two-dinsional world," the four-ard man thought with bright eyes. He was a powerful special life form, comparable to the 'Mother of the Tree Realm.'
Long ago, he had t all the requirents for the ultimate breakthrough. If it weren't for the fear of failure, he would have already attempted it.
"This two-dinsional world might not be a bad thing for . If I can successfully leave, I have a feeling that my state of mind will improve significantly."
The four-ard man thought silently to himself.
Even he felt a certain pressure at this mont, which was a rare occurrence.
Luo Chuan Gathering Place.
Lin Yuan and Pa Duo entered this large gathering place.
As far as Lin Yuan could see, there were many people coming and going, so even emitting the aura of a Witch.
However, Witch Kings were still rare. At least for now, apart from sensing a Witch King lurking in the depths of the gathering place, Lin Yuan hadn't encountered another Witch King.
"Pa Duo, I need to leave for a while," Lin Yuan said as he bid farewell to Pa Duo.
He didn't plan to return after coming here this ti.
Settling down in the gathering place had many advantages for Lin Yuan, especially in terms of acquiring various cultivation resources, which were easy to obtain here.
Moreover, in such gathering places, information was often very well-connected, sothing Lin Yuan desperately needed.
As for the cost of settling down? Now that Lin Yuan was a Witch King, it was no problem at all.
"Alright," Pa Duo nodded.
They had co here to trade for resources and buy so daily necessities.
After parting ways with Pa Duo.
Lin Yuan quickly made his way to a shop.
"Sir," a charming woman greeted him.
Although Lin Yuan was dressed plainly, his aura was sothing that could not be ignored.
"I'd like to sell sothing," Lin Yuan said calmly.
"Sir, our shop offers very fair prices. Please feel free to sell your items," the charming woman imdiately replied.
"Okay," Lin Yuan nodded, then took out a piece of soft white fur.
"This is?" The woman's expression changed slightly. "White Sky Fox fur? And it's from the most valuable part?"
The woman was shocked.
The White Sky Fox was a Witch-level fierce beast, extrely fast, and even Witch Kings found it difficult to capture, let alone catch alive and skin.
White Sky Fox fur was very popular in large cities, not only because it was warm and soft but also because it had nourishing effects for won.
"How much is it worth?" Lin Yuan asked directly.
"Sir, I can't make that decision. I'll go get the shopkeeper," the woman replied cautiously.
"Go ahead," Lin Yuan said calmly. Ordinary Witch Kings couldn't capture a White Sky Fox, but Lin Yuan was no ordinary Witch King.
It wasn't long before a bearded man hurried over.
"Sir."
"For this White Sky Fox fur, our shop is willing to offer three thousand Witch Crystals," the bearded man said after so thought.
"That's acceptable," Lin Yuan nodded.
Three thousand Witch Crystals was a considerable amount of wealth, and it matched the normal market price for White Sky Fox fur.
The transaction was quickly completed.
The bearded man watched Lin Yuan leave.
"Shopkeeper, why didn't you negotiate the price down a bit?" the charming woman asked, puzzled.
She could tell that Lin Yuan was eager to sell the White Sky Fox fur, so lowering the price should have been a priority.
"Negotiate the price?" The bearded shopkeeper glanced at the woman. "Do you think you can haggle with a Witch King capable of capturing a White Sky Fox?"
"Witch King?" The woman was shocked.
That young man was a Witch King? The strongest person in Luo Chuan Gathering Place was only a Witch King.
"I don't know for sure," the bearded shopkeeper shook his head, "but since he could bring in White Sky Fox fur, I treated him as a Witch King."
After leaving the shop.
Lin Yuan visited several other shops.
He sold off most of the spoils from his hunts during this period, gaining a total of twenty-three thousand Witch Crystals.
"Pa Duo, I'm not coming back."
"If you ever need anything, you can find at this place anyti," Lin Yuan said, eting Pa Duo one last ti.
After saying his goodbyes, Lin Yuan went to the residence he had purchased.
It was an estate that had cost him over twenty thousand Witch Crystals.
Owning property was one of the conditions for settling in a gathering place.
"Now it's ti to focus on cultivation," Lin Yuan thought, determined to make the most of every mont. He knew very well that once the timing of the Heavenly Gate's opening beca known, every strong being from the main universe who had descended into this two-dinsional world would stop at nothing to enhance their strength.
If the Heavenly Gate were to open in two thousand years, Lin Yuan was confident he could sweep aside all the strong beings from the main universe.
But with only three hundred years... ti was too short.
Soon, twenty years passed in the blink of an eye.
