Chapter 6: Why Not Give It a Try? (Please Subscribe)_2
In the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, the only way to travel was by flying.
"The calling location... is it in the core area?" Lin Yuan's expression subtly changed.
The Xuanhuang Secret Realm was vast and boundless, divided into the outer region, the inner region, and the core area.
The closer one got to the core area, the more opportunities and treasures there were, and likewise, the competition became increasingly fierce.
In addition to competing with other different species, there were also the indigenous lives of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm. The indigenous lives in the core area were much stronger than those in the inner and outer regions.
Some of them were even capable of overpowering Ninth Rank Myriad Layer Realm powerhouses.
"Be careful."
Lin Yuan's expression was solemn.
However, even within the core area, it wasn't dangerous everywhere. Those treasured places filled with opportunities were indeed perilous, but if there were no such treasures or chances, it was relatively safe.
Lin Yuan had no interest in those treasures or opportunities and merely needed to safely enter the core area and find out the source of the calling.
"Let's go."
Lin Yuan immediately set off, transforming into a streak of light, flying toward the source of the calling.
Several days later.
Lin Yuan traveled through the spatial layers swiftly, flying at high speed.
Just then, a kilometer-long giant snake on the 'earth-yellow' road below suddenly opened its eyes.
"An outsider?"
This kilometer-long giant snake was one of the indigenous lives of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm. Every time the secret realm opened, these indigenous beings would viciously attack the intruding strong ones.
Even the weakest indigenous being, born from the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, had a keen perception of the numerous spatial layers within the realm.
The techniques used by Ninth Rank powerhouses from the Main Universe to merge with the spatial layers could hardly escape the notice of these indigenous beings.
Because this was their home turf.
Boom!
The kilometer-long giant snake opened its huge mouth and unleashed a beam of earth-yellow light.
The beam instantly sliced through space, striking toward the spatial layer where Lin Yuan was located.
In battles amongst Ninth Rank powerhouses, the most crucial aspect was locking on to the spatial layer the opponent was in because only then could one attack the true body.
And this was also the most difficult part.
Every Ninth Rank powerhouse would carefully conceal their true body.
They even continuously changed their position within the spatial layers.
But none of this could deceive the indigenous lives within the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan, who was flying at high speeds, his expression changed slightly.
Rustle rustle.
Lin Yuan raised his right hand, and a field-green shield appeared in front of him, blocking the incoming beam of light.
"An indigenous being?"
Lin Yuan had long been aware of the capabilities of the indigenous lives of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, his expression slightly serious.
"That attack just now was roughly equivalent to a single blow from a Ninth Rank powerhouse who has opened up several hundred spatial layers..." Lin Yuan roughly estimated.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me..."
Lin Yuan looked down at the kilometer-long giant snake, his eyes flashing with killing intent.
Lin Yuan's Inner World currently spanned forty-three thousand spatial layers.
But this didn't mean his strength was only at the forty-three thousand layers level.
Other Ninth Rank strong ones, after comprehending the Complete Space Rules, had Inner Worlds that were at their limit in size.
Unless they were from a noble lineage with a higher limit, there was little difference for others.
Therefore, the measure of a Ninth Rank life's strength was primarily based on the number of spatial layers they had opened up.
The more layers they had opened up, the stronger their strength, with the two being directly proportional.
But Lin Yuan was different; his Inner World spanned an area of at least a hundred and twenty million li.
The strength of the forty-three thousand layers placed on him was at least on par with those Ninth Rank powerhouses who had opened several hundred thousand layers.
After all, the foundation and heritage were there.
So, facing this indigenous being whose strength was only at the Ninth Rank Ten Heavy Realm, Lin Yuan planned to make a quick and decisive battle.
After all, being targeted by an indigenous being, even if you ran away, the opponent would always chase you, which would be too conspicuous.
Rustle rustle.
Lin Yuan took a step forward, proactively emerging from the spatial layer. The power of the world circulated within him as the strength of the many layers converged.
He directly pierced through that kilometer-long giant snake.
"Outsider!!"
The kilometer-long giant snake let out an angry roar, and then its eyes dimmed, its massive body collapsing onto the ground.

"Dead?"
Lin Yuan stepped forward and began to examine the corpse of the indigenous lifeform.
The indigenous lifeforms of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, whether alive or dead, couldn't leave the realm.
Even if someone tried to forcibly take them out, they would disintegrate into ash the moment they left the secret realm.
Therefore, human civilization's research on these types of indigenous lifeforms hasn't been very deep.
"This must be the 'Mystic Yellow' Crystal..." Lin Yuan extracted a fist-sized yellow crystal from the heart of the kilometer-long serpent.
The Xuanhuang Crystal, a special product of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, was the core of the indigenous lifeforms there.
Such a fist-sized piece of Xuanhuang Crystal could easily be exchanged for one hundred thousand Cubic Universe Crystals in the Main World.
The special power contained within the Xuanhuang Crystal had notable effects on certain systems of evolvers and alien strong ones.
The indigenous lifeforms from the Xuanhuang Secret Realm would disintegrate into ash once they left the realm.
Only the Xuanhuang Crystal could be preserved.
This was the only thing Lin Yuan could take out from the indigenous lifeform.
"One hundred thousand Cubic Universe Crystals?"
Lin Yuan was overjoyed. The normal price for a Ninth Rank strong one was between two million to three hundred million Cubic Universe Crystals.
Although one hundred thousand Cubic Universe Crystals wasn't much for Ninth Rank strong ones, the ease of obtaining them now was remarkable.
"Continue forward."
Lin Yuan had formulated a strategy before entering the secret realm.
Never fight for the chance treasures.
But the indigenous life was coming to him on its own.
It didn't violate the strategy Lin Yuan had set.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.
Lin Yuan had walked almost half of the perimeter area.
In these one or two months, Lin Yuan encountered five indigenous lifeform ambushes. The strengths of these indigenous lifeforms varied, with the highest rivaling a Ninth Rank strong one of the Myriad Heavy Realm and the weakest just entering the Ninth Rank, not even comparable to the Ten Heavy Realm.
"In less than two months, I've obtained six pieces of Xuanhuang Crystal, which together are worth nearly one million Cubic Universe Crystals..."
Lin Yuan was somewhat astonished.
One million Cubic Universe Crystals? Even for a Ninth Rank strong one, earning such a large number of Universe Crystals wasn't an easy task, roughly half the fortune of an ordinary Ninth Rank Ten Heavy Realm strong one.
This was still with Lin Yuan actively avoiding those places of opportunity.
If he had deliberately searched for chances, his gains could probably have increased several times.
"No wonder those alien strong ones are so interested in this secret realm; my teacher, who was just an invincible Eighth Layer, risked coming in... This harvest..."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
One could foresee that as long as one could leave this secret realm alive, one would make a fortune.
"Hm?"
"Did another indigenous lifeform find me?"
Lin Yuan glanced at the mainland below, where a hundred-meter-tall bear was staring at him angrily. Despite the layers of spatial layers in between, Lin Yuan knew the bear was looking at him.
"It's one of the weakest indigenous lifeforms."
"Equivalent to just entering the Ninth Rank."
Lin Yuan briefly sensed the aura emitted by the other party. After continuously killing six indigenous lifeforms, he also had some experience.
"Take the initiative."
Lin Yuan immediately left the spatial layers, mobilizing a Ninth Rank attack treasure, and bombarded the hundred-meter bear.
...
Far from where Lin Yuan was, on another side.
A three-headed alien, at the moment Lin Yuan voluntarily left the spatial layers, seemed to sense something and looked in his direction.
"Is that Ninth Rank attack treasure from the Tianyu Clan? Is this human evolver the famous Galaxy Master?"
This three-headed alien was also hidden within multiple spatial layers, watching Lin Yuan swiftly kill the hundred-meter bear, a trace of strangeness flashed in its eyes.
"I didn't expect that, after being delayed by other matters for a while before entering the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, I'd come across such a pleasant surprise."
The three-headed alien stirred slightly.
His tribe was part of the Insect Race Alliance and was thoroughly hostile to human civilization.
Inside the Insect Race Alliance, they had already put out a series of bounties on the Galaxy Master, and even just killing an avatar of the Galaxy Master would yield a generous reward.
"The hundred-meter bear that the Galaxy Master killed, had only the combat power of someone just entering the Ninth Rank. The Galaxy Master, at the initial stage of the Ninth Rank, being able to do so much, the true combat power is probably not weaker than those opening thousands of spatial layers of the Ninth Rank."

The three-headed alien quickly analyzed, "I've opened up twenty-six thousand spatial layers, the Ninth Rank Myriad Heavy Realm. If I make a move against the Galaxy Master, I should be definitely successful."
The three-headed alien's heart raced. The rewards from the Insect Race were simply too lucrative, and after analyzing, he thought there shouldn't be much difficulty in dealing with the Galaxy Master.
"Maybe I should give it a try?"
