Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 230 - 224: A Bold Plan to Break Through to Tier Four
Wushan Shelter.
Villa Area.
Lin Yuan sat on the sofa in a daze, playing with the bronze teleportation gate in his hand.
Yang Dingguo didn’t want it, so Lin Yuan took it back.
It couldn’t be dismantled for research; Yang Dingguo found it useless, but Lin Yuan might find it useful.
Even though Lin Yuan had the "No Distance" rule from the Yellow Springs Road Tattoo, it was merely a disregard for distance.
This bronze teleportation gate could indeed span space, allowing Lin Yuan to travel to another world.
In his mind, he recalled the events of the past few days.
First, Yang Jing came to him, asking him to rescue his sister, and then join forces to overthrow the Deceitful King Faction.
Then, people from the Liu Family came to seek cooperation, willing to exchange teleportation technology for the formula of Guardian Demon Alloy.
All this indicated that since the Nine Cities Plan started, there was unrest within the Deceitful King Faction, no longer the impenetrable fortress it once was.
Once the nine giant cities were built,
the entire layout of the Dragon Country would change drastically. To survive and preserve their power during these changes, the Deceitful King Faction would also need to transform.
However, the Deceitful King Faction was merely an alliance organization; seemingly impregnable, it was actually a loose sandpile.
Everyone had different approaches to change, naturally leading to chaos and errors.
Whether it was Yang Jing seeking cooperation or the Liu Family seeking cooperation,
for Lin Yuan, it was actually an opportunity to annihilate the Deceitful King Faction.
The opportunity was there; all that was missing was the final push.
All the conditions were set; only the eastern wind was lacking.
And that eastern wind was Lin Yuan’s strength.
Tier Four.
When Lin Yuan broke through to Tier Four, it would be the day the eastern wind blew.
"It’s difficult to step into Tier Four at this time!" Lin Yuan lamented, clutching the bronze teleportation gate.
His biggest problem now was being too far ahead of the current version.
According to the current course of the Mysterious invasion, Tier Five was already the pinnacle of this version!
Yet now, Lin Yuan’s strength far exceeded the ordinary Tier Five.
Even formidable Tier Five Peaks like Great Black Heaven, with one foot into Tier Four, were no match for him.
Especially after absorbing the "Darkest Night" rule from the Dark Demon Ape, Lin Yuan’s Four Departments had almost fully awakened.
In theory, once the Punishment Department, Praise Department, Investigation Department, and Yin Law Department awakened one after another, he should be able to successfully step into Tier Four.
Now all Four Departments had awakened, but there was still a thin layer of window paper keeping him from complete mastery.
It was this thin layer of window paper that Lin Yuan couldn’t pierce through.
Lin Yuan could feel that it seemed like the rules of this world didn’t allow him to break through.
That unbreakable layer of window paper was a shackle imposed by this world.
This barrier seemed to be a form of self-protection by the world’s rules.
Just like now, the most powerful evil spirit that descended upon this world was no more than the Great Black Heaven.
Tier Four evil spirits couldn’t descend into this world, so naturally, Lin Yuan couldn’t break through to Tier Four.
"Unable to pierce through the world’s ceiling?" Lin Yuan pondered, having roughly figured out why he couldn’t break through.
However, he needed a strength that exceeded the world’s limits, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to definitively eliminate the Deceitful King Faction.
Because Lin Yuan suspected that the mysterious Red Cloud expert in the Deceitful King Faction should also be at the world’s allowed strength limit.
If he couldn’t break through, he wouldn’t be able to confidently eliminate the Deceitful King Faction threat.
Lin Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a glint flashing at the corner of his eyes.
"Wait, if the world’s limit is now Tier Five. Then, what if I break through in another world instead?"
"Bear in mind, that mysterious Mysterious World has virtually no upper limit in strength!"
"According to Bai Ling’Er, the Grand Elder of the Qingqiu Fox Race is merely at Tier One strength."
"Furthermore, the Qingqiu Fox Race’s ancient texts record experts surpassing tier ranks." Lin Yuan’s mind came up with such a bold idea.
In the past, he had no way to enter another Mysterious World, so he hadn’t thought in this direction.
But now he had a way!
What the Liu Family brought wasn’t just a teleportation gate; it was also an opportunity to break through to Tier Four.
"What if I!"
"Negotiate with Yang Dingguo?" Lin Yuan thought for a while and finally decided not to tell Yang Dingguo.
Now, in Yang Dingguo’s eyes, he was like a junior to him.
No parent would be willing to let their child go on an adventure. If I told Yang Dingguo that I wanted to go to that other mysterious world to seize a fleeting opportunity,
he would surely not agree.
After some consideration, Lin Yuan decided to only tell Bai Ling’Er about this plan and keep it from everyone else.
After all, his current position was too important, and once the news of him going to the other mysterious world spread, it would certainly cause chaos.
Even with Bai Ling’Er, Lin Yuan did not mention his plan to go to the other mysterious world.
Lin Yuan just told Bai Ling’Er that he was going away for a while to attempt breaking through to Tier Four, and this process might be risky.
If anything happened to him and he didn’t return, she must help protect everyone until the Giant City was built.
In Peng City, Bai Ling’Er’s strength was second only to Lin Yuan.
Ordinary Tier Five Evil Spirits were simply not a match for Bai Ling’Er.
Moreover, although Bai Ling’Er also came from that mysterious world, his cultivation methods were completely different from those of the Evil Spirits.
Bai Ling’Er’s cultivation method was not sinister, it seemed to be a proper and orthodox way of cultivation.
Cultivation is about defying heaven, and to gain power, one must put in the effort.
The road to cultivation is certainly risky.
Bai Ling’Er did not try to dissuade Lin Yuan; on the contrary, she was very supportive.
However, that night Bai Ling’Er kept Lin Yuan and called Wen Yingying over, and together they squeezed out his Fish Seed Fortune Bag.
The following morning, Lin Yuan first went to the Giant City construction site to find the Mud Crocodile and the Dark Demon Ape.
Lin Yuan told the Dark Demon Ape that if one day the Mud Crocodile lost control, he should take down the Mud Crocodile and then return to Peach Mountain to find the Rebirth Saint Mother, also known as Little Sister-in-Law.
If Lin Yuan died in that mysterious world, then the constraints imposed on the Mud Crocodile and the Dark Demon Ape by the Yin Law Department would vanish.
At that point, the Mud Crocodile and the Dark Demon Ape would be out of control.
The Dark Demon Ape was fine; Lin Yuan believed that even without the constraints of the Yin Law Department, he wouldn’t cause trouble.
Because the Dark Demon Ape was not only constrained by the Yin Law Department, but he was also the servant of the Rebirth Saint Mother.
He still had to follow Little Sister-in-Law’s orders, to put it bluntly, the constraints of the Yin Law Department were just an extra layer of insurance.
Without the Yin Law Department, he would still listen to Little Sister-in-Law.
The Mud Crocodile was different; losing the constraints of the Yin Law Department meant it would completely lose control.
However, the only advantage was that the Dark Demon Ape’s strength exceeded that of the Mud Crocodile, allowing him to restrain the Mud Crocodile.
After instructing the Dark Demon Ape, Lin Yuan left.
Once Lin Yuan left, the Dark Demon Ape stared intently at the Mud Crocodile.
The Dark Demon Ape thought, let the chains of Yin Law quickly disappear, you quickly make trouble, and once I take you down, I can seek refuge with the Holy Mother.
The Mud Crocodile was hard at work! It felt its body shiver under the gaze of the Dark Demon Ape.
"Brother Monkey, why are you staring at me?" the Mud Crocodile tentatively asked, feeling that something was off in those eyes.
The Dark Demon Ape thought, I can’t just say that I’m waiting for an opportunity to take you down, can I?
"Keep up the good work!"
"Meal time is about to start!" the Dark Demon Ape barked.
As soon as the Dark Demon Ape finished speaking, someone drove over two small trucks.
These two vehicles carried the breakfasts for the Dark Demon Ape and the Mud Crocodile.
The Dark Demon Ape’s breakfast consisted of fresh fruits, including peaches, bananas, and watermelons.
In contrast, the Mud Crocodile’s breakfast was packed with leftover human food that had probably been sitting around for a while, even starting to decay.
Despite both being Tier Five Evil Spirits, why was there such a disparity in food quality?
At first, the Mud Crocodile protested, but when these protests were repeatedly ignored, it stopped complaining.
After all, having something to eat is better than eating dirt like before.
What really irked the Mud Crocodile the most was the apparent affection humans had for the Dark Demon Ape!
They weren’t afraid of him at all; rather, they fought to take photos with the Dark Demon Ape.
As for itself, people looked at it with disdain, and no one dared come near.
The Mud Crocodile really couldn’t understand why that smelly monkey was so liked.
Feeling unjust, the Mud Crocodile decided to bury its grievances in food.
Meanwhile, after leaving Peng City, Lin Yuan didn’t immediately use the Teleportation Gate he obtained from the Liu Family.
Instead, he first went to Peach Mountain to find Little Sister-in-Law.
Lin Yuan still couldn’t be sure if the Teleportation Gate from the Liu Family was genuine.
If the Liu Family deceived him and he got teleported somewhere else, that would be disastrous.
Little Sister-in-Law had been to that mysterious world before, so he planned to let her verify the Teleportation Gate first.
If it proved to be safe, then it’d be fine to use it later.
