Dragon Ball: Starting with a power level increase of 1 per second

Chapter 151 A Brief Moment of Tenderness! The Power of Time! The Unknown Energy Within the Blue Crystal

After enjoying a hearty meal and washing up at the Temple of the Gods, Lin Chuan bid farewell and left.

The reason for having a big meal here is to avoid making Bulma busy with arrangements when we get back.

Although there are smart home robots that can automatically prepare food, it is still far from being as good as food prepared by humans. Moreover, Mr. Bobo's cooking skills are exceptional, and Lin Chuan has tasted them many times.

Ultimately, while intelligent home robots are quite sophisticated and nearly indistinguishable from real people, the food they produce lacks soul.

You'll be amazed when you try it for the first time.

You'll find it delicious the second time too.

The third time, you'll get used to it and take it for granted.

After eating the same food repeatedly, you'll find that the food prepared by the smart home robot is completely unchanging, leading to boredom.

After seeing Lin Chuan off, Bobo and Dandy cleaned up the mess while looking towards the Mental Time Chamber.

Lin Chuan has already come out and left, but Piccolo hasn't come out yet. Even though they know the general situation, they are still worried about Piccolo.

The fact that Piccolo could elicit such reactions from Dandy and Popo shows how highly Piccolo is regarded by them.

……

Xidu!

Back home, Lin Chuan immediately sought out Bulma, who was busy at the research institute.

Ignoring everything else, and making sure no one else was around, he grabbed Bulma and put his arms around her.

Bulma was surprised by Lin Chuan's appearance, not expecting her husband to return so early.

Before leaving, he said he estimated he wouldn't be back for another five days.

"Stop fooling around, this is the research lab... um..." With a soft moan, Bulma's entire body went limp.

"It's alright, my senses have covered this area. There's not a single person, not even a fly." The hot breath blew against Bulma's ear, making her unbearably itchy.

Bulma, her face flushed, glared at Lin Chuan.

"We've been married for so long, why are you still acting so recklessly?"

My heart raced, and a surge of excitement washed over me.

A full hour later, the two were no longer in the research room, but had returned to the master bedroom of the large round house by Lin Chuan's teleportation.

Bulma nestled in Lin Chuan's arms, knowing that for her it was only three days without seeing Lin Chuan, but for Lin Chuan it was a full three years.

"At least you have some conscience, you didn't get bored with the old and found someone new, and you came back to find me." Feeling sweet inside, Bulma ate and drank her fill before talking about Android 18: "Now that you're back, you should go see Android 18. I've been researching that time machine from the future lately, and Little Snow has been following Android 18 around too."

"If we have a child with her soon, Xiaoxue won't be so lonely, and No. 18's heart will be at peace."

"Although No. 18 has been modified, she is a normal woman and can have children."

As Bulma finished speaking, Lin Chuan found himself on the defensive, as if he had been given an order: "I know that, I'll go find her in a bit."

After nodding in agreement, Lin Chuan picked out the key point in Bulma's words and asked, "You said you're researching time machines? Have you made any progress?"

If the time machine is successfully developed, wouldn't that mean he could travel freely between the past and the future?

In this era where the God of Destruction is still asleep, as long as no major changes are made, even if the angels find out across time and space, they probably won't forcibly stop it.

"At present, it can only be considered that some functions of the time machine have been repaired. Even if I am a genius and this time machine was built by my future self, it will still take me a long time to fully understand it."

"I know what you're thinking. I'm afraid even if it's fully repaired, the time machine won't be usable."

Bulma frowned at this point.

"How so?" Lin Chuan asked.

"We don't even know what kind of energy the time machine needs. Without energy, we can't travel through time and space. We also don't know what my future self used as a power source." Bulma sat up, her brows furrowed.

She would react this way whenever she thought about problems with her research.

Lin Chuan finally understood; the bottleneck she was facing now had already occurred in the original work.

He actually knew about that thing; it was a type of underground mineral similar to blue crystal.

However, at that time, Earth had not yet developed this substance, so it was not recorded in the literature.

During the Dragon Ball Super storyline involving Dark Zamasu, it's unclear who developed this thing, but Bulma found it by comparing mineral data.

Of course, it's also possible that Bulma developed it during those ten years, but she just didn't remember it.

"Don't worry, we'll find a way eventually. If the time machine can be restored, great; if not, it's alright." After calming Bulma down, Lin Chuan made a note of the special blue crystal, planning to take a look at it when he had some free time.

It's best not to tell Bulma now.

Otherwise, if Bulma really went mad, she would definitely do something terrible.

Everything needs to be done step by step.

Blindly rushing forward will only backfire.

That special blue crystal could be used as an energy source for a time machine; could it contain the power of time itself?

This is Lin Chuan's most intuitive thought.

Lin Chuan hadn't thought of this before because he hadn't really been involved in this field. Now that Bulma had brought up the time machine, it made him think of this as well.

Time!

Mastering time is the true beginning of transcendence!

……

forecourt.

After spending time with Bulma, Lin Chuan came here to rest, and on the 18th, he brought Xiao Xue'er back.

To be honest, Lin Chuan hadn't expected the telepathy to be so accurate.

He didn't have this feeling, but No. 18 and Xiaoxue'er seemed to sense something, which is why they rushed back.

Although my daughter is not yet one year old, she is already far ahead of other babies her age.

They are, after all, Lin Chuan's daughters, and they both possess such terrifying power.

How can an Earthling's infant compare?

Even if it were another Saiyan infant, the difference would be vast.

Even the sons of Vegeta and Raditz, Trunks and Trepp, though a little younger than Lin Xue, are ridiculously different in age.

Even though she can't speak yet, Xiaoxue'er can already say simple words like "daddy" and "mommy". Standing, walking, and even flying in the sky are all easy for her. She can even release energy because of her emotions.

Otherwise, Number 18 wouldn't have needed to be so attentive, and Bulma wouldn't have been unable to completely keep an eye on Snow.

If it weren't for the 18th, Xiaoxue'er would probably have caused a lot of trouble long ago.

Naturally, Lin Chuan would only praise and compliment his daughter no matter what she did.

A father's absolute doting on his daughter.

Lin Chuan spent the entire day playing with his daughter until she fell asleep. Bulma then went to work in the research lab, giving Lin Chuan and Number 18 some time alone.

Even though they had already had sex, Number 18 was still shy. After all, in her opinion, even though they had had sex many times, they hadn't actually spent a very long time together.

However, three years have already passed for Lin Chuan.

Having the opportunity to be alone together, Lin Chuan completely revealed his true nature.

There's no need to hide anything from your woman.

A major battle is inevitable.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Lin Chuan felt refreshed and invigorated.

Last night's battle against Bulma and Number 18 seemed to have released all the pressure.

After carefully contemplating and consolidating his realm, and doing some basic morning exercises, Lin Chuan had breakfast with Bulma and the others on the 18th.

After that, Bulma continued her research, while Number 18 played with Little Snow.

Lin Chuan stayed with him for a while before preparing to do what he had decided to do.

"Piccolo, hasn't he come out yet?" Standing by the pond in the backyard garden, Lin Chuan looked up at the sky.

A day has passed, and another year has gone by in the Spiritual Time Room.

I thought Piccolo would be released in about a year, but it's been delayed until now.

Is there still no breakthrough, and we're stuck at the most critical point?

Or has Piccolo already broken through, and is currently just consolidating his breakthrough level?

Not knowing the specifics, Lin Chuan didn't delve into it further.

It's worth mentioning that after leaving the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, one can no longer sense what's happening inside it.

Even though he left more than ten spatial imprints, he still couldn't jump.

In other places, it's easy to get in but hard to get out.

Once the mental time chamber reaches a certain limit, it's easy to leave but difficult to enter again.

"Fine, you have your plans, and I have mine. I was planning to take you with me, but it seems you might not even be able to get out tomorrow." Muttering to himself, Lin Chuan leaped up and headed straight overseas.

Before yesterday, I was thinking of contacting Whis and asking him to accompany me to Universe 6 so that I could witness him challenge the God of Destruction, Champa.

Although he could use his own power to teleport to that other universe.

But given the current situation, the relationship between them is already quite good, so there's no need for illegal immigration.

Moreover, the purpose of this trip to Universe 6 is to challenge the God of Destruction. Lin Chuan believes that he should inform Whis about such a big matter.

Whether he stays with her or not is his business.

He won't accompany me, but he's already made arrangements. He'll go by himself from now on, and there's nothing Weiss can say about it.

After all, the laws of the universe stipulate that gods from two universes cannot travel between each other at will and cause chaos, but they do not restrict other life forms from crossing over into each other's bodies.

……

That's what I thought until yesterday.

However, after a night of deep thought, Lin Chuan became interested in the blue crystal that powered the time machine, which appeared in the original work.

Before contacting Weiss, I should first go deep underground to find this mineral, collect some, and then I can study it properly in the future.

Or, you could show it to Weiss when you see him.

The angels certainly knew, and Beerus knew as well, so in order to prevent Bulma from creating another time machine, the original story directly destroyed all the blue crystals on Earth, and at the same time destroyed the time machine that had already been completed.

Upon reaching the open sea, Lin Chuan did not hesitate at all and plunged into the water.

With his normal strength and terrifying physical resilience, reaching the depths of the ocean would be a piece of cake.

After all, he wished for the ability to survive in any environment.

The Earth Dragon could not grant absolute power, but it could only enable Lin Chuan to adapt to extreme environments to the greatest extent possible.

Moreover, with Lin Chuan's current strength and life level, even without the abilities bestowed by the divine dragon, he can survive in desperate situations.

After a short time, Lin Chuan had reached the seabed tens of thousands of meters below the surface.

There is no light in the depths of the sea, let alone on the seabed.

But this does not hinder Lin Chuan's actions, because he can use his own energy to illuminate this sea.

You ask, if you want to go deep underground, then why come to the seabed?

This is naturally for greater convenience.

To travel from the land to the depths of the earth, a passage must be carved out to reach the underground.

Although it wasn't a difficult task for him, being able to cross tens of thousands of meters deep from the ocean floor and then descend directly down the seabed rock wall would at least save a lot of trouble and make things much simpler.

In the original story, the reason why Goku was able to find the Blue Crystal so quickly was probably because Bulma knew of a passage that led directly underground.

Perhaps it was developed in the early years, or perhaps it has always existed on Earth.

In short, Lin Chuan didn't know, so he could only rely on his own abilities.

Of course, with Lin Chuan's abilities, once he determined the target space, he could directly mark a spatial imprint remotely over such a short distance, and then use instantaneous teleportation to travel through it. This was Lin Chuan's true purpose in coming to the seabed.

He placed his hand on the seabed rock wall, and divine power spread out. His spiritual perception passed through the rock wall, which was tens of thousands of meters thick, in just one second.

[Found it!] With a thought, Lin Chuan's lips twitched slightly.

The next second, the spatial marking was completed, and Lin Chuan disappeared directly into the depths of the seabed.

……

A full half hour passed before Lin Chuan returned to the ground, now laden with spoils.

Although he didn't have many blue crystals marking the space, after collecting them all, they added up to at least ten tons.

Just as he had initially predicted, this thing was indeed special.

It contains a special power.

Even with his current level of cultivation, he still cannot fully grasp it; he needs to absorb, study, and practice it.

"If I can't figure it out after this challenge against Champa, I'll find some time to give some to Bulma to study..." With this thought in mind, Lin Chuan regained his composure, used Instant Transmission again, and disappeared from the Earth.

……

Kaioshin Realm.

After a long time, Lin Chuan returned to this sacred place.

For no other reason than that he and Bulma lacked the ability to proactively contact Weiss.

Although Bulma once used delicious food to lure Weiss down, it still depended on whether Weiss wanted to come down.

That was the only time I succeeded; I haven't succeeded since.

Therefore, instead of trying, it would be better for him to use divine power and his spiritual domain to perceive it himself.

Perhaps with his power, he can already sense the existence of the God of Destruction Realm of Universe 7.

At least, he had tried it in the sixth universe and was able to sense the existence of the God of Destruction from the lower universe.

Although it was thanks to the spatial imprint, Lin Chuan tried his best to disregard the guidance of the spatial imprint when he was trying to perceive it.

The reason for coming to the Supreme Kai World is that it is a divine realm that is on par with the God of Destruction World.

Since they are equal, it would be easier to perceive them from here than from in the universe.

He greeted Old Supreme Kai, East Supreme Kai, and Jetbit.

After learning of Lin Chuan's plan, the three of them showed expressions of horror.

To the Old King God, Lin Chuan was like a madman, daring to actively destroy the God Realm.

This is taboo!

However, he knew that Lin Chuan's strength was already beyond his comprehension, and a strange thought arose in his mind: perhaps even if Lin Chuan went to the God of Destruction world and encountered Beerus, he would not be easily defeated by Beerus.

Perhaps Lin Chuan had absolute certainty before he decided to destroy the God Realm.

What about the Supreme Kai and Kibito?

They became terrified after learning more from the Old Kaiojin.

The existence of the God of Destruction is something they fear to the extreme.

It was Old Kaioshin who told them about their past; the God of Destruction was truly terrifying.

The Supreme Kai of the East has always been a jack-of-all-trades; he had no idea that the universe was like this, or that the world was like this.

They tried to dissuade Lin Chuan and hoped he wouldn't cause any unnecessary trouble.

Even though Lin Chuan is the strongest being in the universe, the level of the God of Destruction is too great, so they don't dare to question him at all.

Lin Chuan naturally ignored their warnings.

The best answer is that Whis and he are already familiar with each other, and even if Beerus, the God of Destruction of Universe 7, happens to awaken, Whis will stop Beerus from doing anything to him.

Even if things go wrong, he can just fight. With his current strength, even if he can't win, he won't be easily destroyed.

……

Standing atop the sacred mountain of the Supreme Kai realm.

Lin Chuan was doing his best to control his mental power and release his divine power to reach a higher realm.

He was trying to perceive things simply by using the power of the sixth dimension in normal mode.

If all else fails, then he can transform into Super Saiyan Blue 3. With the ultimate level of Super Saiyan Blue 3, he will surely be able to reach the God of Destruction Realm.

At the same time that Lin Chuan sensed it.

Old Supreme Kai, East Supreme Kai, and Kibito were talking on a flat hillside.

It's impossible not to worry.

Who knows what will happen next?

Although the Old Kaishin God knew about that realm and had been there, he never gained any benefit from it.

"My ancestor, is Lin Chuan really alright? If the God of Destruction awakens, it will be a huge disaster for our universe," the Supreme Kai asked.

"Yes, ancestor, what if the God of Destruction gets angry and we get implicated?" Jebt was covered in cold sweat.

Old Kaioshin remained calm upon hearing this: "What's there to be afraid of? What's the rush? Not only is Lord Beerus still asleep, but Lin Chuan went there using his own power; it has nothing to do with us. Furthermore, our survival is tied to the Gods of Destruction; if we die, the Gods of Destruction will die too!"

"To be honest, I was thinking that if you were more ambitious, I could send Lin Chuan to the God Realm of Destruction."

"Who would have thought that your skills are so shallow? Not only are you weak, but you can't even cultivate divine power. It's been so long, and you still can't even master our Supreme Kai's divine technique of teleportation..."

Old Kaio was furious.

"My ancestor, I... I have tried my best..." The Supreme Kai of the East felt bitter after being criticized once again.

Previously, he considered himself the highest god in the universe.

That supreme life has lasted for millions of years.

Now, everything has changed. He has fallen from a supreme being to an ant.

It's nothing.

"Effort? What's the point of just working hard? You need to know what your goals are!"

"You're not even as good as Kibito. Kibito has mastered teleportation to the point where he can move freely in any corner of the universe. It's true that as a servant, this is something Kibito must master, but you are the real Supreme Kai! You may not need to use it, but you can't not know it! As a Supreme Kai, you must also know our Supreme Kai's divine techniques." The old Supreme Kai continued his accusations.

There's no way around it; the generational gap is just too big.

The Supreme Kai of the East simply nodded in response.

Make him guarantee it?

He doesn't even know when he'll be able to learn it.

For millions of years, where has he ever cultivated himself? He has always lived a life of luxury and ease.

……

As divine power continued to expand, the powerful spiritual force, aided by divine power, could reach even more distant realms.

It can be said that the entire lower universe of the Seventh Universe is within Lin Chuan's perception.

Of course, it's true that we can perceive the entire universe, but it's only a rough overview.

The mortal universe contains countless other dimensions...

The underworld, the Yellow Springs, hell, heaven, the four Great Kaiju planets, and finally the Grand Kaiju planet...

The entire universe is like a giant sphere.

Inside the sphere are two layers: the inner layer is like the Earth's core, belonging to the underworld, while the outer layer is the mortal universe.

Then, in the mortal universe, there are countless small spheres, which are all different-dimensional worlds, such as the Mental Time Chamber.

What about the Supreme Kai's World? It's not as simple as a small round bubble; it's a super-huge sphere.

Standing above the mortal realm, it is like a supreme divine realm, able to overlook and manage the entire mortal and underworld.

Just as I expected, using divine power and spiritual power to perceive the entire universe in the Realm of the Supreme Kai allows for a clearer view. Lin Chuan felt a surge of emotion as he perceived the universe.

This feeling was indeed a first for me, and an experience I had never had before.

Although I had previously sensed the universe in the God of Destruction Realm of Universe 6, my strength was insufficient at the time, and what I perceived was far less vivid than it is now.

The stronger you are, the clearer you see things.

It creates a feeling of having everything under control, as if you hold the universe in the palm of your hand and can observe it at will.

However... Lin Chuan also felt a peculiar fear.

The universe has indeed become tiny, but what does a universe mean to the world?

Overall, he is far from enough!

Reaching his level doesn't necessarily mean transcending the universe. To truly transcend, one must at least reach the level of a god!

As his thoughts drifted away, Lin Chuan suddenly opened his eyes.

Because within his perception range, he finally sensed another enormous spherical bubble, which stood in opposition to the Supreme Kai's World, but was larger than the Supreme Kai's World and possessed a supreme sense that the Supreme Kai's World lacked.
