302: Lin Chen, who returned from a parallel world

In the Main Universe, besides the Four Main Clones, the Five Elements Clone has also been busy causing trouble.

The average lifespan of the Five Elements Clone is two years.

Therefore, the current Five Elements Clones have already iterated past sequence number 500.

The deployment and retrieval of the Five Elements Clones are now controlled by Aura, who is semi-autonomous. During this time, no major incidents like the one involving Fire Lin Chen occurred; only matters that could be paid attention to, or ignored.

The purpose of the Five Elements Clone is merely to consume bad luck and accumulate good fortune, and they are not expected to do anything more.

They just need to do their job well, and if there are unexpected gains, that's even better.

As for Essence Lin Chen and God Lin Chen, who have been separated in different places outside the Main Universe, they each had their own destiny and opportunities.

Beneath the Void Realm, God Lin Chen was located in the channel of the Tower of Nothingness that vented Void Power.

His cultivation was even smoother.

God Lin Chen, holding the Void Annihilation Spear, was in a place where Void Power was most concentrated. With no external disturbances, he could cultivate in peace.

Because of this, God Lin Chen has reached the end of the God Rank and is currently accumulating enough Void Power, hoping to use quantity to achieve qualitative change and reach the Foundation Level in one fell swoop.

Void Creatures Attaining the Dao to the Foundation Level will not face trials.

As long as they maintain their original heart during cultivation and are not corrupted by the Void Realm, once enough Void Power is accumulated, the Void Power will naturally undergo a qualitative change.

Creatures possessing qualitatively changed Void Power can naturally Break through to the Foundation Level and continue advancing until they reach the Peak of the Foundation Level, which is the current limit.

According to God Lin Chen's calculations, he still needs to accumulate Void Power for another eight hundred years before he can Attain the Dao to the Foundation Level.

This accumulation time can be shortened as his own speed of absorbing Void Power increases.

As one of the Main Body's Clones, God Lin Chen naturally benefits from the amplification brought by the Late Bloomer Talent, although there is a slight delay in the amplification due to the vast distance and his Status as a Clone.

Even so, God Lin Chen's cultivation speed is still very fast, allowing the Void Power to undergo a qualitative change and step into the Foundation Level within a few hundred years.

Judging by the timeline, God Lin Chen will be the third Clone to Break through to the Foundation Level.

At this moment, God Lin Chen is not in a hurry to leave the Void Realm. He wants to explore the Tower of Nothingness, this Treasure of Transcendence, again after Breaking through to the Foundation Level.

Perhaps there is only this one Treasure of Transcendence in the entire Void Realm.

Since Lin Chen encountered it, he naturally wouldn't want to miss it.

Once he leaves the Void Realm, it will be difficult to enter again using conventional methods, and perhaps he will never have another chance to enter.

Therefore, God Lin Chen's mission has long since changed from returning to locating the Tower of Nothingness, this Treasure of Transcendence. If possible, mastering the Tower of Nothingness would be best.

However, a Treasure of Transcendence inherently possesses the nature of transcendence, and it is not something the current Lin Chen can covet. Being able to even come into contact with it is already a great stroke of luck, and mastering it before he truly touches transcendence is impossible.

But people should have dreams.

If you don't even dare to dream, how can you talk about transcendence?

————————————

In the Parallel World, Essence Lin Chen opened his eyes.

It had been three hundred years since he entered the Parallel World, and he had been out of contact with the Main Body for three hundred years.

His closest connection with the Main Body was the power of talent amplification that ignored everything and arrived periodically.

The power of talent amplification continuously seeped out of the air and merged into his body.

Although the quantity was small, the source was continuous.

His talent was strengthening every moment, the efficiency of absorbing and converting malice was constantly increasing, and his cultivation speed was rapidly improving.

The world, which was originally densely covered in malice, now only had a little scattered malice from the original Universe. All the malice belonging to this world was absorbed by Essence Lin Chen and transformed into a part of him.

At this moment, Essence Lin Chen completely grasped the Status of the source of malice, placing him on equal footing with the sleeping Source of Malice in the Main Universe.

"It's time to go back. The Main Body must be getting anxious."

Essence Lin Chen, who had already reached the level of a Main God, could no longer increase his strength in the Parallel World. He needed more malice to fill the lack of power within himself.

The Status of the source of malice grants him a direct ticket to the Peak of the Foundation Level, but to reach the Peak of the Foundation Level, he still needs to accumulate enough malice and engage in a Dao Contest with the source of malice of the Main Universe.

He activated the Gate of Space-Time on the back of his hand.

Essence Lin Chen restrained his Aura, using the malice he originally possessed from the Main Universe as a disguise.

With his current strength, he is not yet capable of engaging in a Dao Contest with the source of malice, which has long been at the Peak of the Foundation Level. He needs to discuss the specifics with the Main Body.

Rashly starting a Dao Contest might disrupt the Main Body's plans and bring uncertain harm to the Main Body and the Human Race.

When Essence Lin Chen returned to the Main Universe, landing at the location where he originally entered the Parallel World, Aura and Faith Lin Chen in the Main Universe sensed his presence immediately.

The two only instructed Essence Lin Chen to escape into the Void Realm and return to the Human Race from there, without providing further information.

After all, the Demon Race Territory still had Foundation Level experts stationed there, and Essence Lin Chen, only at the Main God cultivation level, was no match for any Foundation Level expert. Therefore, he needed to quickly escape the dangerous area and return to the safe zone of the Human Race.

Essence Lin Chen heeded the advice, silently tearing open the Universe and falling into the Void Realm.

Returning to the familiar Universe and sensing the familiar Soul fluctuations, the loneliness from Essence Lin Chen's three hundred years of arduous cultivation dissipated, and his mind became lively.

"Hehe, I'm already a Main God. I wonder what cultivation level the Main Body and the other Clones are at. I hope they're not weaker than me; if so, I'll be taking the lead."

Essence Lin Chen clearly underestimated the destiny and opportunities of the Main Body and the various Clones. While he was in seclusion for three hundred years, the Main Body and the other Clones were not idle; it was impossible for them to stand still.

Three days later, Essence Lin Chen entered the Human Race Territory through the Void Realm.

Faith Lin Chen and Aura were already waiting for him.

"Brother, welcome home!"

Since the Main Body was not in the Main Universe, the task of receiving Essence Lin Chen naturally fell to the co-originated Aura. Likewise, Faith Lin Chen also came along to join the fun.

"Wait, your strength! Where is the Main Body?"

Essence Lin Chen subtly scanned Aura and Faith Lin Chen, discovering that even with his Main God cultivation and the Status of the source of malice, he couldn't see through their cultivation levels.

"Just the Peak of the Main God level, Half-Step Foundation Level. We are only two hundred years of cultivation away from Attaining the Dao."

Faith Lin Chen didn't have so many schemes and answered the question honestly.

"Hahaha, I am also at the Main God cultivation level."

"Heh heh, I knew you'd gloat, but Brother, you're already behind. Everyone is striving to Attain the Dao to the Foundation Level now."

Aura knew his own situation best: among the Main Body and the Clones, he was the one who struggled most with Attaining the Dao and had to rely on his brothers' strength. Although he wanted to tease him a bit, he held back.

"Tsk, I thought I could take the lead, but I didn't expect you all to reach this level. Right, where did the Main Body go?"

Essence Lin Chen quickly accepted reality. After all, given the Main Body's talent and luck, it was perfectly normal for everyone's cultivation progress to be similar.

Faith Lin Chen answered Essence Lin Chen's question.

Only Faith Lin Chen knew all the details, as Aura had also been locked up for a period in the middle, making him unaware of many specifics.

Essence Lin Chen became excited after listening.

He thought the Dao Contest might still be a long way off, but now it seemed he could lead people to smash the source of malice soon enough.

Once he killed the source of malice, he could use the vast malice to Attain the Dao to the Foundation Level.

"Brothers, you must Attain the Dao quickly. I'm waiting for you to take me flying."

Essence Lin Chen and Aura were truly brothers in misfortune now.
