The Vast Martial World
Since the first martial deity ascended a hundred years ago, the originally quiet and lifeless Martial World has gradually become lively.
The Martial World, created by Lin Yuan, is vastly larger than the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness. Even the martial deities have not explored its entirety.
Over the past century, with each martial deity that ascended, the Martial World gradually formed three main regions.
One region is the gathering place for martial deities of the Longshan family, centered around Longshan City.
Another region is where martial deities outside the Longshan family gather, centered around Wanxiang City.
The third region is the cultivation place of the great Chief Longshan, occupying the central part of the Martial World, where the essence is most concentrated.
The spread of martial cultivation methods and the establishment of the Martial World all originated from Chief Longshan. Every martial deity ascending from the human realm to the Martial World holds immense respect for Chief Longshan.
He is the unparalleled strongman who ended the era of the gods and started the Martial Era.
Nowadays, although the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness still exist and new gods continue to be born, they cannot compare in power to the Martial World.

Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes, glancing at the lines of illusory text below his vision.
"The time for my stay is almost up."
Lin Yuan looked ahead, and the details of everything happening in the vast Martial World entered his eyes.
As the creator of this world, nothing in the Martial World could be hidden from him, making it almost like a second internal world.
"When I killed the gods, it caused a significant overflow of faith in the human realm. Along with the spread of martial cultivation methods, in just five hundred years, the first martial deity was born."
Lin Yuan reflected. Martial deities correspond to the eighth rank in martial cultivation, although there are significant differences.
The advantage of martial deities lies in leveraging their bloodline power, allowing for rapid progress before the seventh rank. As long as the bloodline's potential is high enough, there are almost no bottlenecks.
After the seventh rank, igniting the divine fire should theoretically require a long period of seclusion to gather faith. However, with the fall of the gods, there was no need for such secrecy.
Additionally, with Lin Yuan's presence, martial cultivators felt confident. After the first martial deity entered the Martial World, many other martial deities quickly followed.
In just a hundred years, the number of martial deities in the Martial World exceeded a thousand.
"Out of the thousand martial deities, only less than a hundred belong to the Longshan family?"
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. Despite his clear favoritism towards the Longshan family, frequently sending his primordial spirits back to the human realm to solve problems for the family's 'martial talents,' the family members did not measure up compared to other talents in the human realm.
This was quite natural. Even with Lin Yuan, the Longshan family was just a single family with limited numbers, incomparable to the entire human population.
Nevertheless, even with only a few dozen martial deities, the Longshan family still held a dominant position in the Martial World. Martial deities outside the family dared not offend those from the Longshan family.
All of this, naturally, was because of Chief Longshan Yuan.
"A few hundred years ago, a young member of the Longshan family prayed for me to suppress martial deities outside the family and curb the rise of martial talents from the source of faith."
Lin Yuan's gaze was calm; he naturally did not agree to this request.
His goal was always to spread martial cultivation as widely as possible. The rise and fall of the Longshan family itself were of little concern, as long as martial cultivation continued to spread in this world, meeting his expectations.
Restricting the development of martial cultivation for the sake of the Longshan family's dominance was something Lin Yuan would never do.
Moreover, he was gradually letting go of the Longshan family, not having his primordial spirits return to Longshan Ridge in the human realm for the past few decades.
"Their lifespan should be nearing its limit." Lin Yuan looked down, observing everything in the human realm.
"2.331 billion."
Lin Yuan's gaze penetrated countless space layers, his internal world's depth reaching an astonishing level.
In the main world, many ninth-rank powerhouses considered ten million space layers the peak of the ninth rank. But Lin Yuan had developed 2.331 billion space layers?
In terms of numbers, this was 233.1 times the normal ninth-rank peak, but the actual power was more than ten thousand times stronger.
"This transmigration has yielded immense gains."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but marvel at the unprecedented number of space layers—2.331 billion, an amount that would leave any ninth-rank life in the main world in despair.
Lin Yuan couldn't claim his space layers were the highest in the main world, but they were undoubtedly unparalleled.
This 'unparalleled' included all beings, not just human civilization but all star races and peak groups, including unique life forms, none of which could have this number of space layers at the ninth rank.
"I wonder what my internal world will be like when it transforms into an internal universe?" Lin Yuan anticipated.
Transforming the internal world into an internal universe was the ultimate sublimation, breaking all shackles and limitations.
Then, the internal universe's size wouldn't be limited to millions of miles, and space layers would naturally evolve, becoming broader and deeper.
The extent of this sublimation depended on the original size and depth of the internal world.
The strongest ninth-rank life of the Tianyu race, Huny, developed over thirty million space layers. Was that just for fun?
Given the time to develop over thirty million space layers, Huny could have crossed into the tenth rank, significantly enhancing combat power beyond millions to tens of millions of space layers.
Other ninth-rank powerhouses of various races also developed as many space layers as possible within the ninth rank, with ten million space layers as the minimum threshold.
Developing so many space layers at the ninth rank was to prepare for the internal world's transformation into an internal universe, breaking all shackles and limitations.
"The Martial Ninth Rank Chapter," Lin Yuan shifted his attention from the internal world to his perfected Martial Ninth Rank Chapter.
Unlike the seventh and eighth chapters, the ninth chapter focused on adjusting the internal world's structure, making it more stable and powerful.
With the same size, space layers, and foundation, martial ninth-rank powerhouses would hold an advantage.
Additionally, based on the bloodline cultivation path of this world, Lin Yuan developed a bloodline purification method for the martial evolution system.
Martial evolvers could extract their bloodline potential while comprehending the grand rules, enhancing their strength faster than through rule comprehension alone.
This method was suitable for citizens with high-level, dense bloodlines, with the limit being the seventh rank.
Human rights in the main world prevented gathering faith, making it impossible to independently develop a divine kingdom and thus reach the eighth rank through this method.
Lin Yuan envisioned that high-bloodline martial evolvers could fully extract their bloodline potential, reaching the fifth, sixth, and seventh ranks quickly, then transitioning to rule comprehension.
"The bloodline evolution path is not the grand path." Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
None of the nine supreme powerhouses of human civilization or the strongest of other peak races achieved their ultimate form through bloodlines alone.
The Stellar Union, a league of unique life forms, had supreme powerhouses with noble bloodlines, but reaching the twelfth rank relied on more than bloodlines.
In some sense, bloodlines became a constraint in reaching the peak.
"By perfecting the Martial Ninth Rank Chapter and adding a branch for bloodline evolution, I have enhanced the overall foundation and strength of martial evolvers."
Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he raised his right hand, and with a thought, the time flow on his skin began to distort, slowing or stopping, becoming out of sync with the main time flow.
"Time rules."
Lin Yuan's eyes gleamed. Over the past six hundred years, he had invested significant effort in comprehending the time rules.
