Battlefield B0001 is the battlefield where the two peak races, human civilization and the Tianyu Clan, clash.
Although the scale of forces involved from both sides isn't large compared to large-scale battlefields, the total merit points obtained from a single war on this battlefield, even if only a tenth, is a huge number.
It's enough to make high-ranking evolvers 'dedicate' themselves for tens of thousands of years, even a hundred thousand years.
"Twenty-seven million merit points."
Lin Yuan confirmed the latest merit points in his account, smiling.
This number met Lin Yuan's expectations and even exceeded them.
To put it in perspective, Lin Yuan received only twenty-two million merit points for creating the complete eighth-rank martial arts chapter, judged by the three goddesses.
Indeed, whether it was the eighth-rank martial arts chapter or the first and second-rank martial arts chapters...
Even though Lin Yuan uploaded them, the ownership remained his.
The human civilization's official role is more like a 'mediator', ultimately still requiring them to give Lin Yuan a share.But an income close to thirty million merit points is definitely a huge profit.
"This is the fortune of war."
Lin Yuan thought to himself. In peacetime, accumulating so many merit points would have been a massive effort.
But now, it was achieved in just one war.
Of course, Lin Yuan also knew that even on alien battlefields, earning so many merit points was not common.
First, it requires a sufficiently intense war and a victory.
If the humans had lost or tied in the war against the Tianyu Clan, Lin Yuan's share of merit points would have been far less than twenty-seven million.
Secondly, someone like Lin Yuan, who receives a direct share from the total merit points, is rare.
Lin Yuan had this privilege, but other invincible eighth-rank beings didn't qualify for it. Most invincible eighth-rank beings could earn only about a hundred or two hundred thousand merit points in this war.
A sufficiently intense war usually lasts for decades or even centuries. The Tianyu Clan had been fighting human evolvers for over a hundred years before launching a full-scale war when they realized human civilization was struggling.
"Besides merit points, there are also those eight ninth-rank secret treasures and one space secret treasure." Lin Yuan raised his right hand.
Nine palm-sized weapons floated in front of him, slowly rotating and exuding a terrifying aura.
Lin Yuan had deliberately suppressed his strength, inducing the Tianyu Clan to send one eighth-rank being after another holding ninth-rank secret treasures. It made the Tianyu Clan look foolish.
But in reality, this was based on their lack of understanding of Lin Yuan's true strength.
Before Lin Yuan broke through the battlefield, even the peak races wouldn't have expected such a powerful eighth-rank being.
Killing invincible eighth-rank beings like killing chickens.
Having combat power beyond ordinary ninth-rank beings.
With strong beings from both peak races watching the battlefield, they couldn't directly determine Lin Yuan's true strength and could only send their strong beings to test him.
As for why they didn't send all at once? Each time Lin Yuan made a move, he didn't show overwhelming superiority, so why would they reveal all their cards from the start?
Actually, even if they had sent them all at once, it wouldn't have changed the outcome. With Lin Yuan's current strength, even just an avatar, he was an invincible existence at the eighth rank.
"These nine secret treasures, each worth between fifty thousand to one hundred thousand universe crystals, combined are worth at least four hundred fifty thousand universe crystals, and at most nine hundred thousand universe crystals."
Lin Yuan made a quick estimate, unable to suppress the smile on his face.
Having just finished his eighth transmigration, Lin Yuan had been distressed over the eighty thousand universe crystals spent on the Taiwei Clear Crystal. But shortly after, he had millions, even tens of millions of universe crystals in wealth.
Such a fortune in universe crystals would be considered wealthy even among ninth-rank strong beings.
"My merit points should now be enough to upgrade to an eighth-level citizen."
Lin Yuan suddenly thought.
Upgrading from a seventh-level citizen to an eighth-level citizen requires fifty million merit points.
Lin Yuan earned twenty-two million merit points for uploading the eighth-rank martial arts chapter. Adding the previous remaining points, he had twenty-six million merit points.
Now, with the newly received twenty-seven million merit points.
Lin Yuan's total merit points reached a staggering fifty-three million.
"Let's upgrade to an eighth-level citizen directly."
Lin Yuan didn't hesitate and contacted the Goddess of Wisdom to upgrade his citizen level.
Every upgrade in citizen level required the Goddess of Wisdom's attention, mainly to ensure the legality and compliance of the channels through which the merit points were obtained.
"Honorable Scholar Lin Yuan, your citizen level has been upgraded to level eight."
The solemn and cold voice of the Goddess of Wisdom came.
"An eighth-level citizen."
Lin Yuan glanced at the citizen level section, which had changed from 'seven' to 'eight'.
The eighth-level citizen is a qualitative leap. Often, in a Star Alliance governing hundreds or thousands of star domains, there are only three or four eighth-level citizens in one era.
Even many evolver scholars have never reached the eighth rank in citizen level. Fifty million merit points are extremely difficult to obtain, requiring evolver scholars to continuously develop results that advance human civilization.
Although not limited to evolutionary paths, after millions of years of effort by numerous evolver scholars, this method of obtaining merit points has become increasingly difficult.
"The privileges of an eighth-level citizen..."
As Lin Yuan upgraded to an eighth-level citizen.
Emails from the Central Star Domain of human civilization poured in.
Besides congratulations, they introduced the benefits and privileges of an eighth-level citizen.
Compared to a seventh-level citizen, the benefits and privileges of an eighth-level citizen are greatly enhanced.
First is the eighth-rank evolution potion, which can forcibly elevate a seventh-rank evolver to the eighth rank. Although only with the basic destructive power of the eighth rank, far from the perfection of an eighth-rank evolver who has developed an internal world and undergone the heart demon tribulation.
Such forcibly elevated eighth-rank evolvers may even be weaker than some peak seventh-rank evolvers.
But at least in terms of lifespan, they are no less than regular eighth-rank evolvers.
This is also something human civilization hopes for; as long as eighth-level citizens are alive, they have the potential to create great value for human civilization.
As for combat power? Human civilization hasn't fallen to the point where they need eighth-level citizens to defend the continuity of the race.
There are plenty of evolvers and Star Lords for that.
"Automatically becoming the Grand Chancellor of the Beihan Star Alliance?"
Lin Yuan glanced at one of the eighth-level citizen privileges.
The Beihan Star Alliance is where the Milky Way Star Domain is located, a newly developed Star Alliance encompassing 1,335 star domains.
The Grand Chancellor is the highest position in a Star Alliance. Although unable to directly command all Star Lords within the alliance, they have significant influence over the star domains.
They can even dismiss or reassign a Star Lord based on their actions.
Currently, the Beihan Star Alliance, being newly established, has no Grand Chancellor. Lin Yuan is now effectively the first Grand Chancellor.
In other words, Lin Yuan is now the undisputed highest authority in the Beihan Star Alliance.
Especially in this edge star domain alliance, where the boundaries of star domains are not yet stabilized, the power of the Grand Chancellor is immensely significant.
"Honorable Eighth-level Citizen Scholar Lin Yuan, would you like to conceal your identity as the Grand Chancellor?"
The solemn and cold voice of the Goddess of Wisdom came.
The names of legislators in various Star Alliances are listed, and the Grand Chancellor's name appears on a higher-level list.
"Conceal it."
Lin Yuan nodded.
Revealing the Grand Chancellor's identity would bring him no benefits, only disadvantages. He could still enjoy the powers of the Grand Chancellor without exposing his identity.
"Eighth-level citizens can establish an evolver family with the 'Human' prefix?"
Lin Yuan continued browsing the privileges of an eighth-level citizen and was suddenly astonished by this.
Evolver families in human civilization are countless, with many established and dissolved daily.
But an evolver family with the 'Human' prefix is extremely rare and almost never dissolves.
Such a family is protected by all of human civilization. Unless they commit acts of treason, these families coexist with human civilization.
All evolver families aim to have the 'Human' prefix, which is an unprecedented honor.
"Unexpectedly, becoming an eighth-rank citizen grants this qualification."
Lin Yuan marveled at this. Many high-level citizen privileges and benefits are confidential and protected, unknown until reaching that level.
"A human-prefixed evolver family."
Lin Yuan's thoughts wandered.
For example, if he established an evolver family now, it could be called the 'Human Lin Family.'
Members of a human-prefixed evolver family enjoy the favor of the three goddesses and some resource tilts.
"Other privileges."
Lin Yuan calmed himself and continued reading.
Many of the eighth-level citizen privileges and benefits are upgraded versions of those for seventh-level citizens. For example, a seventh-level citizen enjoys a guard team composed entirely of seventh-rank evolvers.
An eighth-level citizen enjoys a guard team composed of eighth-rank evolvers.
But this aspect is meaningless to Lin Yuan.
A guard team of eighth-rank evolvers? With Lin Yuan's current strength, he can easily kill invincible eighth-rank beings, let alone ordinary eighth-rank evolvers.
In the virtual world, in a mysterious space.
Five towering figures, including the Strongest One Xia Qin, the Strongest One Gu Li, and the Strongest One Yu Die, appeared, sitting on high thrones.
"Hehe, those fools from the Tianyu Clan, thinking they could take advantage of us," the Strongest One Xia Qin sneered.
Human civilization and the Tianyu Clan are both peak races, and their strongest ones and ancestors have clashed before. Xia Qin despises the ancestors of the Tianyu Clan.
Those bird people never dare to confront him directly, always using their evolutionary 'authority' to fight sneakily.
"The Tianyu Clan did suffer a loss this time," the Strongest One Yu Die chuckled.
They had observed everything happening on Battlefield B0001, even speculating whether the ancestors of the Tianyu Clan would lose their temper and personally intervene, regardless of the consequences.
Lin Yuan deliberately showed weakness, luring the Tianyu Clan geniuses to their deaths. Even though these geniuses were only avatars, the Clan lost face.
Especially for the strongest ones, who overlook the cosmic starry sky, being invincible and fearless, their reputation is paramount.
Having their young ones crushed by a human counterpart is a severe blow to their pride.
"But speaking of which, the Milky Way Star Lord, that kid, is unbelievably strong. Besides those rare and unique special beings, can our human civilization evolvers also suppress ninth-rank beings at the eighth Rank?"
The Strongest One Gu Li couldn't help but say.
Although he is a strongest one, he knew that when he was at the eighth Rank, he was nowhere near Lin Yuan's terrifying combat power.
"Let me take a look."
The Strongest One Xia Qin looked ahead, where scenes of Lin Yuan fighting on the battlefield appeared.
"Fully comprehended space rules, halfway through merging rules, yet the merged power is excessively strong."
The Strongest One Xia Qin nodded slightly.
Even knowing that Lin Yuan had comprehended three high-level cosmic powers and the complete space rules, merging them, the power was still beyond expectation.
"Maybe this kid's evolutionary path is special?" The Strongest One Yu Die smiled.
"But the stronger he is, isn't it better? Our human civilization can only grow stronger with such geniuses."
"Indeed."
The Strongest One Xia Qin and the Strongest One Gu Li nodded slightly.
Only with this can human civilization continue to prosper.
"By the way."
"Isn't it about time for that cosmic secret realm to open?" the Strongest One Yu Die suddenly said.
"That cosmic secret realm..." The Strongest One Xia Qin frowned.
The so-called cosmic secret realms are small worlds attached to the main world.
They are originally hidden deep within layers of space but, for some reason, connect with the main spatial layer.
The Black Abyss Clan in the Insect Race Alliance originates from the Black Abyss Secret Realm.
The spatial layer where the Black Abyss Secret Realm resides formed a passage with the main spatial layer, and the strongest ones of the Insect Race forcibly pulled the Black Abyss Secret Realm into the main space.
Thus, the Black Abyss Clan was born.
"The last time that cosmic secret realm opened was two hundred thousand years ago. I remember our human civilization suffered significant losses."
The Strongest One Gu Li said.
"But we also gained a lot."
The Strongest One Yu Die replied.
Milky Way Star.
Lin Yuan was fully comprehending the 'Chaos Crystal.'
This treasure, which the owner of the Devil Jade Tower accidentally obtained, had great significance for Lin Yuan's rule fusion.
Although the Chaos Crystal did not contain specific 'demonstrations' of fusing space rules and the Tao of Tai Chi with various cosmic powers.
Observing the fusion of other rules, especially between basic and pillar rules, profoundly impacted Lin Yuan.
Drawing one from ten.
Drawing one from a hundred.
"Once the space rules and the Tao of Tai Chi, along with various cosmic powers, are fully fused, there will be a major transformation. At that point, the power of the fused rules will be vastly superior to just being halfway merged."
Lin Yuan thought as he continued comprehending.
After surpassing the halfway mark in fusion progress, Lin Yuan clearly felt it becoming increasingly difficult.
However, with Unrivaled Insight, the 'Chaos Crystal,' and occasionally revisiting the 'Interpretation of the Void', Lin Yuan's fusion speed still progressed at a pace unimaginable for ordinary peak eighth-rank evolvers.
One day.
Lin Yuan was continuously attempting to fuse the rules.
Suddenly.
Lin Yuan opened his eyes.
"Teacher is looking for me?"
Lin Yuan thought for a moment, then split a strand of consciousness to connect to the virtual world to meet the Red Kun Star Lord.
