Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 339 The Strongest Bloodline in Endless Chaos!
"Ok?"

As the spacetime shift ended, Lin Qing discovered that his illusory clone had not returned to the Void Sea, but instead appeared in a temple filled with countless dazzling stars.

Above them sat a majestic figure radiating endless light—none other than His Majesty the King of Light!
"Your Majesty, King Guang." Lin Qing bowed slightly.

"You did well on the first test." King Light nodded slightly, his voice echoing throughout the temple like a cosmic reverberation: "You are indeed incredibly talented. In that world of survival, your will broke through the possibility that was clearly a future line with an extremely low probability, yet you only glimpsed a moment of the river of time and space, and your will was able to transform accordingly."

Lin Qing remained silent.

"Regardless of everything else, you are really good at this."

King Guang said, "For cultivators of the future rules, the most important thing is not only to foresee the future, but also to anchor the future and do everything in their power to move closer to the result we want. Your talent in the future rules should be quite good."

He examined Lin Qing's illusory clone and said, "The Chaos God clone that you created using the illusory bloodline is not a bad idea. In the future, you can use this clone to ascend to the position of the main god. As long as the aptitude is good, the hope of eternal life is not small, and perhaps there is even a glimmer of hope to reach the ultimate."

Lin Qing's heart stirred. It seemed that His Majesty the King of Light had a rather high opinion of him?

“Every one of my disciples has a sliver of hope of reaching the ultimate goal.”

King Guang said softly, "To reach the ultimate end of the rules of spacetime, talent in will alone is not enough. Therefore, the second test I give you is that you must master the secret technique 'Cosmic Calamity Body' within 38 million years, and then collect two 'Radiant King Pearls' and one 'Fleeting Ethereal Flower'."

"Cosmic Hell?"

"Two magnificent royal pearls?"

"A fleeting, ethereal flower?"

Lin Qing silently memorized these three requests, then asked, "Your Majesty, are these secret techniques and two items anything special? Where should I look for them?"

With a flick of his finger, His Majesty the King of Light saw a gray jade slab and a ray of light fly out.

The light pierced straight into Lin Qing's brow, and the gray jade slab floated into his hand.

"This world-opening stone slab contains the cultivation inheritance of the 'Cosmic Body Tribulation' secret technique. This stone slab also contains the resources needed for beginners. You only need to achieve a minor success in the first level of cultivation."

His Majesty the Light King said calmly, "As for this trace of source power, it will allow you to sense the location of the Brilliant King Pearl and the Fleeting Void Flower. Both of these items are within the universe of the King Realm. As long as you have the ability, you will definitely be able to obtain them."

Lin Qing immediately memorized it.

It may seem like just collecting some items and cultivation methods, but since it is His Majesty the King of Light's test, it must contain hidden mysteries and difficulties.

It's like a resurrection stone in the survival world.

"Remember, 38 million years."

His Majesty the King of Light said, "With your advantage as the chief god, your will to influence the river of time and space, and the lord's bloodline within you, if you can't achieve these three things in 38 million years, then don't even think about the ultimate goal."

Lin Qing was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and asked in confusion, "Lord's bloodline? What Your Majesty means by lord's bloodline..."

His Majesty the King of Light laughed and said, "It's the mutated bloodline within you."

"Mutant bloodlines can only occur when two chaotic creatures with compatible bloodlines combine to produce offspring with two different bloodlines."

He said softly, "The little guys from the Myriad Worlds Group are ignorant. They don't realize that the treasure is right in front of them. They only see that what they have obtained is the second-generation Eternal Frozen Ice Flame Bloodline and a mutated bloodline formed by another chaotic creature, but they don't know that it is the second-generation bloodline of the Chaos Lord."

"The Chaos Lord?" Lin murmured.

"The various creatures born from chaos each have their own wonders, but their bloodline talents and potential are roughly the same. The most outstanding of the first generation may grow to a level close to the ultimate existence."

His Majesty the King of Light said, "The Chaos Lords are those terrifying Chaos creatures who have broken through the limits of their bloodlines. They are extremely rare, but each one is also extremely terrifying. Their bloodlines are also very magical. Even the second-generation bloodlines of the Chaos Lords have inherited memories, and their potential and talents are no less than those of the first-generation bloodlines of many Chaos creatures."

Lin Qing suddenly realized.

Chaotic beings are species that are naturally born from chaos, essentially children of endless chaos. Therefore, their first-generation bloodlines possess inherited memories. No matter how close the strength of their second-generation bloodlines may be, the lack of inherited memories creates a gap.

The Chaos Lord is a terrifying being who has broken the bloodline restrictions of chaotic creatures, and the second-generation bloodline he gives birth to is naturally extraordinary.

"No wonder..."

Lin Qing suddenly realized, "I knew it! This mutated bloodline was clearly created from the combination of chaotic creatures, yet it still possesses the inherited memories of the first generation of bloodlines. It turns out it's a Chaos Lord..."

His Majesty the King of Light glanced at Lin Qing with a half-smile and said, "The bloodline in your body is the child born from the union of a terrifying Chaos Lord, the 'Burning Universe Lord,' and his subordinate Chaos creature, the 'Eternal Frozen Flame.' It was then captured by the Eternal Being of the Myriad Worlds Group, who extracted this mutated bloodline from it."

"The Lord of Burning Universe?" Lin Qing memorized this terrifying name.

It seems that even the eternal beings are unaware of the Chaos Lords, and therefore have not considered this possibility at all.

No wonder the King of Light said that this first test would be a great benefit to him; it really was!

"but……"

His Majesty the King of Light suddenly said, "The bloodline of the Lord of the Burning Universe is not a good match for your main body, but it is extremely compatible with your Black Flame Avatar. Of course... if you want to forcibly merge with the bloodline of the Lord of the Burning Universe, it is not impossible, but you will have to give up your Void God Clan bloodline first."

He looked at Lin Qing and said, "But you must also understand that once you lose the bloodline of the Void God Clan, you will also lose the 'Great Extinction of Illusions'. Even if you succeed in cultivating it, without the bloodline of the Void God Clan, it will all be in vain."

"The Great Extinction of the Illusory World requires the bloodline of the Void God Clan?" Lin Qing was slightly taken aback.

He knew that he could only have one kind of chaotic creature bloodline or the bloodline of the Void God race within him, because these powerful bloodlines were in conflict with each other.

But he didn't know that one must have the bloodline of the Void God Clan to cultivate the Illusionary World Extinction.
"of course."

His Majesty the King of Light said, "This is a terrifying secret technique created by the future World God for the Void God Clan with endless effort. How could it be allowed for outsiders to learn it? At the very least, one must have the bloodline of the Void God Clan to cultivate it. This is equivalent to permission. Only if your soul has been altered by the bloodline of the Void God Clan can you successfully cultivate it. Otherwise, it is simply impossible."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing understood why his bloodline had resonated with it when he was cultivating this secret technique.

So... only those with the bloodline of the Void God Clan can successfully cultivate this technique?
"You also need to make a decision on this as soon as possible."

His Majesty the King of Light said, "While the bloodline of the Void Gods can allow you to cultivate the secret technique of the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World, it will also cause a disadvantage in the bloodline of your original body."

He looked at Lin Qing, "If you were to abandon your Void God Clan bloodline and fuse with this Lord's bloodline or the first-generation bloodline of another chaotic creature, your potential might be even greater, at least far surpassing your meager fourth-generation Void God Clan bloodline. The choice is yours." "Abandon the Void God Clan bloodline..."

Lin Qing hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask, which is superior, the bloodline of the Void God Clan or the bloodline of the Chaos Lords and the first generation of Chaos Creatures?"

His Majesty the King of Light chuckled, then shook his head slightly and said, "Is there any need to ask? The Void God Clan is the strongest bloodline in the endless chaos. Even the third-generation bloodline of the Void God Clan has talent and potential comparable to the first-generation bloodlines of other chaotic creatures, and the second-generation bloodline is even comparable to a Chaos Lord."

He paused, then sighed, "As for the six first-generation Void Gods born from the Cosmic Tree, they are the strongest bloodlines, even surpassing the Chaos Lords!"

The strongest bloodline in the endless chaos?
Lin Qing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "The Void God Clan is only a third-generation bloodline, yet it's comparable to the first-generation bloodline of Chaos creatures?"

He also possesses the bloodline of the fourth generation of the Void God Clan, but this only raises his genetic index to the upper limit of the universe; the fourth generation bloodline of chaotic beings can also achieve this.

Although he knew that the Void God Clan had been special since the third generation of their bloodline, and had even heard that Void God Clan member Fei Xing mention it—

Some powerful chaotic creatures can rival the second-generation bloodlines of the Void Gods.

Now it seems that the powerful chaotic creature they were referring to was probably a Chaos Lord!
No wonder the Void God Clan's third-generation bloodline couldn't be exchanged.

"Don't mistake fourth or fifth generation bloodlines for Void Gods."

King Guang glanced at him and shook his head slightly, saying, "The fourth and fifth generation bloodlines are deliberately released by the Void God Clan. Most beings born in the universe can integrate the fourth and fifth generation bloodlines of the Void God Clan, which are specifically used to cultivate allies."

Lin Qing had also heard the 'Flying Star' mention this before.

“But the third generation bloodline involves the true core bloodline of the Void God Clan, and it is almost never allowed to be obtained by outsiders. In history, the number of times our human race has obtained the third generation bloodline of the Void God Clan is very small.” King Guang sighed.

Then, he glanced at Lin Qing and said, "However, since you are able to cultivate the 'Great Extinction of the Illusory World,' there is a sliver of hope that you can obtain the third-generation bloodline of the Void God Clan."

Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, "Does Your Majesty know what the Void God Clan's requirements are for the three generations of bloodlines?"

"Let's talk about it when you achieve eternity." King of Light glanced at him and said, "Until you achieve eternity, the Void Gods will never entrust you with their core bloodline."

"Eternity?" Lin Qing was taken aback, then nodded gently.

"It seems you don't want to give up the 'Great Extinction of the Illusory World'." King Guang nodded slightly and said, "That's right. After all, it's a terrifying secret technique created by that future world god. It's normal that you're reluctant to give it up."

Then, he looked at Lin Qing and said, "But you must also remember that if you fail in the future and fail to obtain the third generation bloodline of the Void God Clan, then you should give it up. Otherwise, you will be constrained by this thin fourth generation bloodline, and your potential will ultimately be limited."

Lin Qing took a deep breath and nodded, saying, "I understand."

"As for the rest, we'll talk about them after you pass the second test or achieve eternity," said the King of Light.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lin Qing nodded slightly, then couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, I'm going back to my home, the Void Sea. I've heard that once a Chaos God of a Level 3 civilization becomes a main god, they can use their connection with the Level 3 civilization to transfer a portion of the origin accumulated in their Void Sea, thereby delaying the Great Annihilation?"

"Once you ascend to the position of the Supreme God, that will be enough," said the King of Light. "But you must understand that this method is actually to use your connection with the Realm of Kings to forcibly break the cosmic boundary of the Void Sea, just like poking a hole in a bottle. As a small universe, the Realm of Kings will constantly absorb massive amounts of energy. If you poke a hole in the Void Sea, the Void Sea's origin that you mobilize will naturally be absorbed by the Realm of Kings, which can indeed buy you a lot of time."

He looked at Lin Qing and said, “However, this method will also damage the Void Sea. Once the Void Sea is damaged, the universe’s rules will naturally descend to protect it, just like patching a damaged surface. But as more and more patches are added, it will become increasingly difficult for you to ‘make holes’.”

Lin Qing suddenly realized, "So that's how it is?"

"With the power of the main god, the boundary of the Void Sea universe can be broken at most three times," said the King of Light. "Each time can only extend it by seven or eight hundred million years. In other words, no matter how hard you try, you can only delay the Great Cataclysm by two or three billion years."

"Two or three billion years?"

Lin Qing felt a slight sense of relief and immediately said, "Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty."

“That’s true. You’ve only lived for a little over a million years. Two or three billion years is already a very long time for you,” King Guang said, shaking his head slightly.

"His Majesty."

Lin Qing couldn't help but ask, "If my homeland were to transform into a small universe of a Level 3 civilization within these two or three billion years, before the Great Annihilation, would I no longer have to worry about the Great Annihilation?"

Upon hearing this, King Guang seemed somewhat taken aback, looking at him with a slightly strange expression before shaking his head and laughing, "Indeed, ignorance is bliss. To create a miniature universe in just two or three billion years?"

Lin Qing knew that he was thinking too far ahead and too high, which made him seem too arrogant or even naive, but he still asked, "Your Majesty, I wonder if anyone has ever done this before?"

"It is possible that something could achieve ultimate existence in a mere two or three billion years... There have been instances of this."

A hint of reminiscence flickered in the King of Light's eyes as he softly said, "After I transcended, I reincarnated into the Origin Realm. In the Origin Realm, I spent eighteen billion years achieving the ultimate state. Afterward, I reincarnated again into the sacred land where my home, the Void Sea, is located, hoping to help my homeland transform into a miniature universe and allow all my people to transcend together..."

He sighed and looked down at Lin Qing: "But... creating a miniature universe is much more difficult than achieving the ultimate goal. I tried everything, but I was still unable to transform my hometown into a miniature universe before the Great Cataclysm."

Lin Qing was slightly taken aback.

The corners of King Guang's mouth turned up slightly, and his tone became gentler: "Although it's a bit naive, it's always good to have a conviction in your heart. If you want to do it, then do it, and don't let yourself regret it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Lin Qing said respectfully.

"Go."

After Lin Qing disappeared into the temple, King Guang remained silent on his throne for a long while, then suddenly chuckled softly, "Interesting..."

He dislikes those who, once they become powerful, regard all living beings as ants. The strong have their place, but that doesn't mean the weak are unworthy of being human. He accepts few disciples because he has certain requirements regarding their character and temperament.

After all, many powerful people are born with exceptional advantages, and even those who rise from humble beginnings often do not care about their hometown or clan.

This is why he was willing to say so much even though he hadn't yet determined whether Lin Qing was qualified to become his disciple.

With his strength and status, why would he need any disciples?
It's simply a matter of finding someone pleasing to the eye, resonating with them, and having their aptitude meet the standards before accepting them as a disciple, which also allows him to offer assistance.

"Not bad, little guy." King Light's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.
