Creating Heavenly Laws

"Is this the Third Rank?"

Feeling the rapid transformation of his body, a smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

After the second transmigration, Lin Yuan had already reached the peak of the Second Rank.

Later, he comprehended the original force evolution path and almost stepped into the Third Rank.

Even so, Lin Yuan was still not in the Third Rank.

For other evolvers at the peak of the Second Rank, there were clear indications on how to advance to the Third Rank. Their own evolution paths provided detailed guidance: how to reach the conditions, and what to do after reaching the conditions. However, as the pioneer of the evolution path, everything was unknown to Lin Yuan.

Even with his unparalleled insight, if he hadn't engaged in battles with numerous evolvers in recent months, gaining close-range insights into various evolution paths, Lin Yuan's advancement to the Third Rank would have been significantly delayed.

"Third Rank evolvers are also called 'City-Destroying Level.' With a full-force strike, they can pierce through almost half of a city."

"The Third Rank of my martial evolution path, with the Tai Chi field covering several miles, a mere thought can annihilate everything within its range."

Sitting cross-legged, Lin Yuan's Tai Chi field faintly expanded, enveloping the entire Water Moon District.

It could be said that at this moment, the lives of all the people in the Water Moon District were in Lin Yuan's hands with just a single thought.

"In the entire Canglan Star, there are definitely fewer than twenty evolvers below a hundred years old who have reached the Third Rank."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

As a medium-life planet, Canglan Star had a permanent population of over fifty billion citizens. With such a vast population base, there would inevitably be some incredible geniuses.

For example, in this tournament, Lin Yuan attached great importance to a Third Rank opponent who was struck by lightning at birth. Thousands of people around him died from the lightning, but he survived. Moreover, his physique was baptized by thunder, naturally possessing thunder attributes, and could even transform into thunder.

Hence, other participating evolvers referred to him as the 'Thunder God.'

The power of thunder, extremely pure and intense, although Lin Yuan hadn't fought against the 'Thunder God,' he felt that his Tai Chi field might not be able to restrain the opponent.

Evolvers like the 'Thunder God' belonged to the unique type—powerful individuals that couldn't be popularized, only suitable for that one person.

"Goddess of Wisdom."

Lin Yuan contemplated for a while and connected to the Goddess of Wisdom.

"Respected citizen Lin Yuan, please state your request."

The solemn and cold voice of the Goddess of Wisdom came through.

"Now that I have stepped into the Third Rank of my martial path, can I display my full strength in the upcoming arena matches?"

Lin Yuan inquired.

Previously, the Goddess of Wisdom had warned him not to expose his identity as the founder of the martial evolution path, as it might attract the attention of extraterrestrial races, potentially putting him on their 'assassination list.'

"Please rest assured. Exceptional evolvers don't attract the attention of extraterrestrial races until they break into the star region rankings."

The Goddess of Wisdom explained in a soft tone.

The territory of the Human Alliance was vast, with an enormous population. Just on Canglan Star alone, there were five billion citizens. Canglan Star, as a medium-life planet, was just one of many star regions subordinate to the Human Alliance's civilization territory.

Extraterrestrial races didn't have the energy or strength to focus on the top one hundred or even the top ten human evolvers on a specific planet.

Compared to the evolution paths that could be permanently inherited, individual humans were indeed somewhat insignificant.

"I see."

Lin Yuan nodded, then asked the Goddess of Wisdom if others could perceive that he was practicing the martial evolution path.

The explanation from the Goddess of Wisdom was that it was very difficult to perceive, to be precise, almost impossible.

Currently, there isn't a single person who has cultivated the martial evolution path to the Grandmaster Realm. Not to mention mastering the Tai Chi way of Yin and Yang Realm.

Without reaching this realm, it's impossible to comprehend the true mysteries of the Tai Chi way. How could others discern that Lin Yuan is using the Tai Chi way?

The Human Alliance has announced countless evolution paths, similar to the martial evolution path and the Tai Chi way. Unless Lin Yuan voluntarily reveals it, how could others guess?

In the arena matches, Lin Yuan knows a lot about his opponents' evolution paths because these individuals disclosed that information themselves. As long as Lin Yuan doesn't openly announce that he practices the martial evolution path, others cannot accurately guess the specific evolution path. At most, they can determine a general range.

One must understand that evolution paths are extremely personal matters. Knowing someone's evolution path allows targeting the weaknesses of that specific path, making it possible to counter the evolver personally. Therefore, except for extremely confident evolvers, normal ones won't publicize the evolution path they follow.

"Incidentally, I'll raise my citizen level."

With a slight thought, Lin Yuan directly consumed merit points to elevate his citizen level. Half a year ago, after completing the second transmigration and uploading the follow-up of the martial evolution path, Lin Yuan received enough merit points to advance to the fourth level. However, he delayed it until now just to maximize the loan limit from the Central Bank of Human Civilization.

"Ding—"

With the consumption of merit points, Lin Yuan's citizen level officially rose to level four. A fourth-level citizen was already considered the pinnacle of Canglan Star, only comparable to the ruling officials.

The privileges of a fourth-level citizen were more profound than those of a third-level citizen. One newly added privilege allowed Lin Yuan to mobilize Canglan Star's fleet to protect himself if he felt his life was threatened.

In addition, Lin Yuan's loan limit at the Central Bank increased to one billion, and he received a transfer of twenty million from the Central Bank.

"Raising to a fifth-level citizen requires fifty thousand merit points?"

Lin Yuan frowned. No wonder there were no fifth-level citizens on the entire Canglan Star. The merit points required to advance to a fifth-level citizen surpassed the sum of the previous four levels.

"Take it slow."

Lin Yuan wasn't in a hurry. The martial evolution path was only at the Third Rank now, and it had already brought him so many merit points. When he eventually opened this evolution path to the Fifth or Sixth Rank in the future, wouldn't the merit points be even more abundant?

Just achieving a theoretical potential of the Sixth Rank had already given Lin Yuan twenty thousand merit points. If the martial evolution path truly became a Sixth Rank evolution path, Lin Yuan would undoubtedly receive far more than twenty thousand merit points.

"Hmm?"

"Liao President has contacted three times?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the visitor records.

"Closed off for three days?"

Lin Yuan stood up and sent a message to President Liao, "I'm fine."

During the breakthrough to the Third Rank, Lin Yuan's physical body and soul were undergoing transformation, so the process took a bit longer.

Lin Yuan had just sent out the message when President Liao responded almost instantly.

"If there's anything, you must tell me. That person, Lu Meng, has attack methods that can penetrate dream realm souls. Even in a virtual world, complete isolation is impossible," President Liao expressed concern in his tone.

In Lin Yuan's final match before entering seclusion, he faced Lu Meng, a Third-Rank evolver with a dream evolution path. President Liao was worried if Lin Yuan might have been affected.

Over the past few months of the arena matches, President Liao had come to fully realize Lin Yuan's unparalleled evolutionary talent. With the strength of Second Rank and Twelfth Stage, Lin Yuan had resiliently withstood the attacks of a Third-Rank evolver for half an hour.

If not for the time limit, Lin Yuan might have been able to continue holding his ground. This potential, placed even within the entire Eastern Continent, was top-notch. It was a level of talent that couldn't be produced even over dozens of arena matches.

"I really am fine," Lin Yuan contemplated for a moment and continued with another message, "I have reached the Third Rank."

Entering the Third Rank wouldn't remain a secret for long. In the upcoming individual arena matches, facing opponents of the Third Rank, Lin Yuan would undoubtedly showcase his corresponding strength.

At the Evolutionary Association of Dongning City, President Liao sat in his seat, staring blankly at the virtual screen in front of him, especially those six words: "I have reached the Third Rank." These words turned President Liao's mind into a mess.

Reached the Third Rank? Lin Yuan had entered the Third Rank? In Dongning City, he had produced a Third-Rank evolver? Dongning City had hosted over a thousand arena matches. In its prime, there were only two or three Second-Rank evolvers.

As for Third-Rank evolvers, President Liao didn't even dare to think about such a thing.

One of the conditions for the arena matches was being under a hundred years old. Although Dongning City had once witnessed the birth of a Third-Rank evolver, adding the constraint of being under a hundred years old made it almost unheard of.

Even for the entire Eastern Continent or the entire Canglan Star, the number of evolvers meeting this condition was extremely limited.

"Now, in the arena matches, an evolver explicitly revealing Third-Rank strength is just a little over ten."

"Dongning City has produced a dragon!"

President Liao's eyes turned red as he muttered to himself.
