this infinite world

"So now, am I qualified to shoulder the future of the entire multiverse as you said?"

——Strength is the confidence to speak.

Unlike before, Yang Yun now has sufficient reasons and confidence to say this, because he is now completely different from before.

What does it feel like to be sanctified?
Yang Yun had no way to describe it, nor could he put it into words. He couldn't even use the words he had seen in "Infinite Horror", "Infinite Future", or even "The Beginning of Death" to make a metaphor... Because even the protagonists and supporting characters in these works have never truly experienced the process of "becoming a saint".

Perhaps Zheng Zhali in the infinite future is close to a saint. Once he can let go of his obsession and revive his teammates, he can become a saint on the spot and reach the realm of high saint; perhaps Pei Jiao in Death Beginning can easily control the primary saints after returning to his origin at the end, and can refine four gods' hands in an instant, but they are different from Yang Yun now... and if we really want to find a character in these works who has a similar experience to Yang Yun at this moment, I'm afraid it can only be Loki in "Death Beginning".

Energy infusion, vacant sainthood, proving the truth with strength... all kinds of coincidences created such a saint. Even though he was a defective saint without any fighting skills at that time, he still grew into a true primary saint in a very short time. He overwhelmed Xihe, Zhu Jiuyin, and Kua, three senior saints with two innate spiritual treasures, with his own strength. After falling, he still had the existence of the fourth level peak. In the end, Pei Jiao used "Chaos-Dao Shizhong" to kill him completely...

There is such a huge gap between a saint and a non-saint. Moreover, Yang Yun's current achievement is not a primary saint like Loki, but a high-level saint of which there are only a hundred or so in the entire multiverse!
If the holy path of a primary saint is engraved into the fetal membrane of the multiverse and becomes a world of its own, which then evolves into an isolated universe; then the holy path of a high-level saint is pervasive in all worlds. The birth of each high-level saint will bring about certain changes in the multiverse, because their holy path is not only unique, but can also make up for some of the defects in the rules of the multiverse, making this universe gradually perfect...

If not, how could the high-level saints transform the holy way into stars, half dependent and half independent of the multiverse itself? It is because the two are originally a mutually beneficial coexistence relationship... If the primary saints are at best employees and department managers of the multiverse, then the high-level saints have at least become the top of the multiverse, and they even own some shares.

But at this moment in Yang Yun's vision, his own Saint Path did not turn into stars in the same way as the Saint Paths of more than a hundred high-level saints that were previously suspended in the void. Instead, it slowly rotated in a wonderful way, and produced another wonderful change...

"Snapped."

It is like a newborn bird struggling to break out of the eggshell and greet the first ray of sunshine in life; it is also like a newly sprouted sapling using its tiny but tenacious vitality to slowly push open the thick soil.

A golden and magnificent, spiral Jianmu sacred tree suddenly stood out from Yang Yun's holy path, with golden branches and jade leaves growing towards infinite heights, almost touching a realm higher than this void, casting a verdant cover on all the heavens and worlds; and the deep brown roots were tightly tied to the multi-dimensional fetal membrane, spreading towards the infinite universe...

However, it was not known whether it was due to lack of stamina or some other restriction, but the sacred tree eventually stopped growing in the void, its shadow faded and disappeared, and it did not truly "become equal to the sky and live as long as the earth."

Even so, when Yang Yun's holy path was placed alongside the holy paths of other high-level saints in the void, it still stood out. It was like a mountain that towered into the clouds, standing alone among the mountains; it was also like a bright star, emitting a light that could not be ignored, overwhelming ordinary high-level saints... - However, Yang Yun's influence in becoming a high-level saint was by no means so simple.

In the vast multiverse, all planes where there are "Cosmic Trees", "World Trees" or "Trees of Life" that symbolize the vitality and growth of life are feeling an unprecedented shock at this moment.

The source of this shock came from the Jianmu in Yang Yun's inner universe. It seemed to have broken through some kind of boundary at this moment, and it was frantically sprouting new branches, each of which established a mysterious connection with a new plane. And the sacred trees on those planes seemed to have resonated with the laws and concepts, and bathed in the light of Yang Yun's holy way, they became the extension of Jianmu and its branches...

At this moment, an indescribable connection seemed to be established between Yang Yun's inner world and the entire multiverse. It was a resonance of life and growth, blurring the boundaries between universes. As Jianmu continued to sway, countless planes experienced unprecedented rebirth and sublimation. And the miracle light that Yang Yun had been using for a long time, at this moment, spread across the universe like a spark of fire!
——This is the characteristic of an innate saint.

Somehow, Yang Yun seemed to have this kind of enlightenment.

According to what Yi Qi said before, the word "innate" means the entity of the universe and the origin of all things. One must first prove the "origin" and then the "end" before the two can be integrated to create a complete cosmic view... But Yang Yun, who has witnessed the destruction and rebirth of the multiverse with his own eyes and even personally put an end to this restart process, has been exposed to this level in advance compared to other high-level saints.

Yang Yun has now reached the state of becoming a high-level saint and beginning to possess the characteristics of an innate saint. At this new height, he felt an unprecedented surge of power, as if he had transcended the mundane world and could do whatever he wanted without any hindrance. In his eyes, carrying the weight of the entire multiverse is nothing but a piece of cake. He even wants to hold this vast multiverse in his hands and control its life and death, prosperity and decline, which is nothing but a piece of cake...

...Of course, that was just an illusion.

Suppressing the illusion brought by the surge of power, Yang Yun had a clear understanding of his own strength. Not to mention that he had seen the power of Dr. Manhattan, and witnessed the Three Emperors' independence from the multiverse, the shocking battle between Emperor Fuxi and Gong Yeyu, which was far beyond his ability to challenge now; not to mention -

"What...are you?"

Facing Yi Qi in front of him, Yang Yun asked this question. (End of this chapter)
