A technologically powerful nation: The national treasure is actually myself.

Upon receiving the urgent summons from the Lord of the Flamefire Palace, Lin Yang looked up at the sky again.

I already had a vague premonition.

It seems that the cycle of reincarnation is about to begin.

The sudden urgent summons from the Lord of the Flamefire Palace must also be related to this matter.

The next instant, he vanished from the spot.

When they reappeared, they were already inside the Hall of the Ancestor of Humanity.

At this moment, the true form of the Flamefire Palace Master was not present in the hall; only a wisp of his power was projected.

Clearly, the Tribulation of Reincarnation is approaching, and the Lord of the Flame Fire Palace and several other palace masters have to deal with the troubles that are about to come, so they are unable to personally oversee the Human Ancestor Palace.

Upon seeing Lin Yang's arrival, the projection of the Flamefire Palace Master first gave Lin Yang a brief once-over, and then said:
"It seems that your years of seclusion have brought you considerable improvement. That's good. You should have already sensed the abnormality between heaven and earth, right? The Tribulation of Reincarnation is about to descend."

So it was for this very reason.

Lin Yang nodded in response: "Yes, Palace Master, I have sensed an unusually dangerous aura spreading quietly between heaven and earth."

"This pervasive aura of danger is a harbinger of the impending Reincarnation Tribulation, which will occur within 300,000 years," the projection of the Flamefire Palace Master stated.

"Is there anything I can do? Should I go and garrison the ancient pass of Dingbian?" Lin Yang asked proactively.

The projection of the Lord of the Flame Fire Palace shook his head: "No, you can't go to Dingbian Ancient Pass. Every time the cycle of tribulations descends, they will launch a fierce attack. The reason why that Heavenly Nightmare attacked you is still unknown. It's too dangerous for you to go. If they attack you again at this critical moment, we are afraid we won't have time to take care of you. We can guard that place."

“I summoned you here to temporarily take charge of the Ancestral Hall of Humanity. There will be a lot of affairs to handle during this period. Previously, it was our hall masters who were distracted in handling these matters. Now, judging from your condition, you are very close to the Ancient Realm and can take our place in taking charge of the Ancestral Hall of Humanity.”

Lin Yang was somewhat surprised: "I'm here to oversee the Ancestral Temple?"

"Yes, the Tribulation of Reincarnation will descend within 300,000 years, but it will not instantly annihilate everything. Instead, it will be a process. During this process, chaos will break out in various places. Your main task is to maintain order and prevent more people who have not been affected by the Tribulation of Reincarnation from dying in the man-made chaos under the apocalypse," the Lord of the Flame Fire Palace explained.

The cycle of reincarnation will last for ten thousand years after it officially begins.

Within these ten thousand years, at least half of the population will be annihilated by the cycle of reincarnation.

Such a large number of deaths would naturally cause panic and chaos.

It's like when ordinary people learn that the end of the world is coming, chaos erupts in various places.

Those who practice spiritual cultivation are no exception.

During the period when the Tribulation of Reincarnation descends, the rules originally set up by the various temple masters will temporarily become invalid, and people will become aware of the existence of the Tribulation of Reincarnation.

Naturally, some people will be unwilling to accept this and will harbor the idea of ​​destroying everything to cause chaos.

At this point, strong suppression is necessary.

In addition, ancient ruins will also reap a great harvest of life during this period.

However, the ancient ruins are too troublesome, and there is really no way to deal with them at this critical juncture. We can only try our best to prevent the ancient ruins from affecting more people.

Simply put, Lin Yang's mission is to save people.

With his current abilities, he is more than capable of handling this task.

After hearing what the Lord of the Flamefire Palace said, Lin Yang naturally nodded in agreement.

He felt it was his duty to do so.

"Alright, from now on, I'll leave the matters of the Human Ancestor Hall and the Primordial Ancient Continent to you. If there are any problems you can't solve, then send me a message." After saying this, the projection of the Flamefire Palace Master disappeared from the spot.

Lin Yang took over the Ancestral Temple.

Inside the Hall of Human Ancestors, besides him, there were only some ordinary elders at the Dao Without Leakage Realm.

The elders of the Eternal Realm, along with the few elders of the Unknown Realm, have basically all gone to Dingbian Ancient Pass.

Lin Yang also understood that the reason he was chosen to take over the Human Ancestor Hall this time was mainly because the Flame Fire Hall Master and others believed that he had the greatest potential and room for improvement, and was the most likely to break through to the Ancient Realm. They did not want him to risk going to Dingbian Ancient Pass.

Otherwise, the other elders in the Unrealm are more qualified and experienced than him.

He quickly glanced through the recent news from various places and began to think of countermeasures.

The cycle of reincarnation is irreversible.

It cannot be stopped by human intervention.

Even if the number of people who are going to die is astronomical, and even if he is reluctant to do so, he is powerless to stop it.

Therefore, Lin Yang could only do his best to make more preparations so that he could save more people.

He projected several streams of power to several important locations within the human territory to facilitate immediate response.

Each of these projections of power contains only a portion of the power of the original body, but it is more than enough to deal with everyone else except for the old things inside the ancient ruins.

Currently, all beings above the Hengjing realm are stationed at Dingbian Ancient Pass to prevent foreign lands from taking advantage of the situation to invade.

There's no need to worry about other tribes taking advantage of the chaos to cause trouble.

Because the cycle of reincarnation swept across the entire Primordial Ancient Continent.

The other major clans also need to be dealt with.

Therefore, for Lin Yang, he is currently an invincible existence within the human race's territory.

As long as we don't provoke those ancient ruins.

“Ancient ruins…” Lin Yang’s true form looked at the ancient ruins that first appeared in White Blaze City.

This ancient site, after several riots, now covers dozens of prefectures.

"Cheng Fu, Shi Jie, Xin Hao, Xiao Shuang, Elder Wen, and my teammates from the Far East Prefecture army back then, as well as so many other people..."

Lin Yang murmured:

"They all died at the hands of this ancient ruin!"

He desperately wanted to break in and see what kind of state that ancient immortal was in inside the ruins.

But I held back.

If you're not strong enough, going in will only be suicide.

"One day, I will wipe you out!" Lin Yang clenched his fist and slowly withdrew his gaze.

Then, he sent a message to Sima Ming of the Western Prefecture, instructing him to assemble the prefectural army, enter combat readiness, and go to support neighboring prefectures.

Since Xiwu City is close to the territory of the Ancient Ruins Clan, he sent a projection of his power there to oversee the situation.

With a powerful projection stationed in the Western Regions, there shouldn't be any problems.

Then the forces of the government army can be diverted to support other places.

Sima Ming was unaware of what had happened and was startled upon receiving Lin Yang's order.

Are we about to enter combat mode?
All the soldiers of the government army!

This is an amazing order.

However, he still carried it out quickly.

Thanks to Lin Yang's long-standing presence in the Western Border Prefecture, his position is very secure.

Although shocked by Lin Yang's sudden order to prepare for battle, they dared not hesitate in the slightest.

Lin Yang's order was then sent to the other prefectures.

He ordered all prefectural and military units to be on standby for battle at any time.

This naturally caused a huge shock.

On the same day, the armies of nearly a thousand prefectures of the human race entered a state of combat readiness.

This naturally sparked much discussion and speculation.

However, the Tribulation of Reincarnation has not yet arrived. Only a dangerous aura permeates the air. Apart from a very few powerful individuals who can vaguely sense it, most people cannot feel anything unusual. Therefore, the various prefectures and regions are relatively stable, although some rumors are circulating.

"The Tribulation of Reincarnation could descend at any time within the next 300,000 years. The Palace Masters and Elders at Dingbian Ancient Pass have been guarding it for so many years without incident, so it should be fine this time as well. But the Underworld..."

Lin Yang constantly sensed the changing dangerous aura on the Primordial Ancient Continent, and felt a little worried.

In previous eras, the underworld was constrained by its rules and unable to cause trouble.

But this time, the underworld is an extremely unstable factor.

However, Lin Yang quickly stopped thinking about it.

Because if the boundary rules are broken in this cycle of reincarnation, Yueyou will definitely inform him.

The fact that Yueyou hasn't issued a warning suggests that the boundary rules might be able to be maintained for some time.

Suppressing his thoughts, Lin Yang sat down cross-legged to cultivate.

All arrangements have been made. Take advantage of this last period of tranquility to improve as much as possible.

unconsciously.

Ten thousand years have passed.

During these 100,000 years, everything on the ancient continent of Yuanchu was relatively peaceful.

Aside from the fact that the powerful leaders of various races had already made all sorts of preparations, ordinary cultivators were completely unaware of this.

However, on this very day, the pervasive sense of danger suddenly intensified.

This unsettling aura was immediately detected by many cultivators of average strength.

"What's going on? Why does it feel like a great terror is brewing between heaven and earth?"

"A murderous intent, a murderous intent, some kind of murderous intent is spreading!"

"I felt a little palpitated, even a bit of indescribable fear!"

"Is there a powerful being active in the vicinity?"

"..."

Many practitioners became panicked on this day.

The previously pervasive sense of danger instantly transformed into a palpable and terrifying killing intent.

Heaven has unleashed its murderous intent.

It enveloped the entire ancient continent of the Primordial Era.

At some point. Sigh.

got windy.

A strong wind swept across the land.

The winds of war are blowing, and a murderous intent is palpable.

At this moment, it seemed as if some kind of constraint had been broken.

All cultivators on the entire Primordial Ancient Continent sensed the information about the Cycle of Reincarnation in an instant.

"What? There's actually something called reincarnation tribulation?"

"Every 120 million years or so, the life on the Primordial Ancient Continent is wiped out once?"

"We could be wiped out at any moment?!"

In an instant, the world was shaken.

Countless cultivators were stunned by this sudden information.

The cycle of reincarnation, the great cleansing.

Everyone could be wiped out at any time.

This information sent chills down people's spines.

What followed was fear and despair.

No one knows if they will be one of the lucky ones to escape being wiped out.

The erasure during the cycle of reincarnation is entirely random.

Chaos ensued.

Death is imminent, and under the impending doom, people's hearts are in chaos.

The cycle of reincarnation will last for ten thousand years.

People who didn't know if they could live for ten thousand years went mad.

The evil in human nature was magnified infinitely at this moment.

They burned, killed, looted, raped, and plundered.

In the world of cultivation where individuals possess immense power, when a cultivator of unparalleled strength begins to commit evil, the resulting destruction is unimaginable to ordinary people.

Weak cultivators were easily slaughtered and imprisoned.

In short, all sorts of imaginable and unimaginable behaviors unfolded on this day on the ancient continent of Yuanchu.

Fortunately, Lin Yang was prepared.

The local military forces mobilized immediately upon the outbreak of chaos.

Although there was widespread panic among the soldiers, they managed to maintain order through discipline.

The large-scale riots were suppressed immediately.

Lin Yang wasn't idle either.

His several projections of power were focused on those who had reached the Dao Without Leaks realm.

Although reaching the state of Dao without leakage qualifies one to join the Human Ancestor Hall.

However, they were unaware of any information regarding the cycle of reincarnation.

Not every Dao Wulou who joins the Ancestral Temple possesses a strong sense of righteousness and the determination to die for the human race.

Some paths lead to perfection, requiring a lifetime of hard work to ultimately reach the state of perfection.

However, they must bear the priority of being annihilated by the cycle of reincarnation.

Naturally, they were unwilling to accept this.

Some people can control themselves well, but eventually, some will still lose their composure, their mentality will collapse, and they will go mad.

Lin Yang's power projection was specifically designed to suppress Dao Wulou, whose mentality had collapsed.

After he mercilessly killed several crazed Dao Wulou, the remaining Dao Wulou completely calmed down.

In response, Lin Yang granted special permission for all Dao Wulou not to participate in any further actions and to stay in their own places without worry.

But the premise is that no trouble must be caused.

The Daoist masters of the Ancestral Temple readily agreed and returned to their respective places.

They really weren't in the mood to do anything.

Because the realm of flawless Dao is, frankly, somewhat awkward in the face of the cycle of reincarnation.

Upon reaching the Eternal Realm, one is permitted to know of the existence of the Cycle of Reincarnation in advance and also possesses the initial ability to avoid it.

Those in the realm of perfect enlightenment cannot foresee the existence of the cycle of reincarnation, nor do they have the ability to avoid it.

Unfortunately, the cycle of reincarnation tribulations tends to target and eliminate those with high cultivation levels first.

Given that those at the Eternal Realm and above can avoid the Tribulation of Reincarnation, the Realm of No Leakage naturally becomes the primary target of the Tribulation of Reincarnation.

So they've all lost interest in doing their jobs.

Lin Yang understood this, so he did not require them to continue fulfilling their original duties as elders, and they could rest for the time being.

"I wonder how many of these Dao-Zhi Lou from the Human Ancestor Hall will still be left ten thousand years from now?" Lin Yang felt rather uneasy.

Qingyuan, however, had a strong ability to accept things. After learning about the Samsara Tribulation, he quickly calmed down. He didn't leave the Human Ancestor Hall, but after everyone else left, he said to Lin Yang:

“I can continue to fulfill my duties as an elder. I don’t need to rest. You can assign me tasks, and I will go and guard some places for you.”

Lin Yang looked at him, wondering if he would ever see this old friend again after ten thousand years, and was speechless for a moment.

Qingyuan, however, was quite nonchalant: "Don't look like that. Since we can't escape it, and the choice of whether to live or die is not in our own hands, then let nature take its course. I have been in the Dao Without Leaks Realm for many years, and my lifespan is actually not that long. This time, not dying will just mean living a few more years, but there is no hope of breaking through. Sooner or later, I will die anyway."

Lin Yang sighed: "Then you can choose any mission. I'll give you the authority, you can go wherever you want. Right now, all the prefectures are in chaos."

He has already suppressed and killed Dao Wulou, who was causing trouble. With Qingyuan's strength, he can now deal with trouble anywhere without any major problems.

Therefore, he did not refuse Qingyuan's request and gave him the right to choose freely.

Qingyuan randomly chose a prefecture and set off.

Lin Yang himself also rushed to the place with ancient ruins.

Several ancient sites have already begun to reap the benefits of life.

He couldn't stop it, but he could try to save as many people as possible from the ancient ruins.

The main body and several projected powers acted simultaneously.

With his strength, he could carry many people away from the area covered by the ancient ruins in an instant.

His true form went to the place where the ancient ruins of the former White Blaze City were located.

This ominous ancient ruin is expanding outwards at an extremely rapid pace, seemingly vying for survival with the cycle of reincarnation.

The cultivators nearby were already filled with despair.

People living near ancient ruins are in a worse situation than those in other places.

In areas without ancient ruins, people deal with chaos caused by other practitioners.

Those who originally lived near the ancient ruins not only had to deal with the chaos brought about by the cycle of reincarnation, but also the despair of the ever-expanding ancient ruins.

For most cultivators, in the current chaotic situation, it would be difficult to evacuate using a teleportation array.

During peaceful times, and during riots at ancient ruins, one can also travel by teleportation array.

But given the current situation, relocation is almost hopeless.

Therefore, when Lin Yang arrived, he saw faces filled with despair and numbness.

He didn't say much, only letting out a low shout: "Everyone, do not resist my power, I will take you away from here."

As he spoke, his power spread, enveloping everyone within his sensing range.

Before anyone could react, they were instantly transported to a safe area far away from the ancient ruins.

Then, they went to transfer the second batch, the third batch, and so on...

The ancient ruins are expanding at an extremely rapid pace; Lin Yang is practically racing against them.

After one batch is transferred, the next batch must be transferred immediately.

It took several attempts before someone finally realized what was happening.

"Were we saved by the esteemed figures of the Ancestral Temple?"

"The esteemed figures of the Ancestral Temple actually remembered us at a time like this and came specifically to rescue us!"

Many people were moved to tears.

Even if they are not sure whether they can escape the fate of being wiped out by the cycle of reincarnation.

But at least for now, they've survived.

……

after a while.

Lin Yang, along with his power projection, has already transferred countless groups of cultivators.

Finally, his actions seemed to have angered the ancient ruins.

As he prepared to relocate the others once again, he received a will from within the ancient ruins.

"Hmph, junior, I have already tolerated you transferring so many people, and you are still not satisfied? Your behavior has crossed the line. I warn you, stop this behavior immediately, or you will bear the consequences!"

Lin Yang's eyes turned cold.

……

P.S.: First, I apologize. I've been a bit out of it these past few days... Sigh, I don't know what to say. I'll just update now... (End of Chapter)
