Chapter 242 The Book of Cause and Effect
The Void Realm, the Holy Land Continent.
As Su Yuan stepped out of the palace, he saw nearly 100,000 figures waiting for him.
"Nearly 90,000 saints, and over 400 great saints."
Even though he already knew the exact number of Saints and Great Saints who had visited him from the gray mirror, Su Yuan still felt somewhat emotional looking at the densely packed waiting figures.
This is a saint, a supreme being of the universe.
Even if a war were to break out, only a hundred saints and great saints would be involved.
The number of saints and great saints at present is more than a hundred times that of those who started the war.
Initiating a war already signifies a relatively high level of conflict among human races; going further would mean direct conflict with a dominant race or power.
Su Yuan looked around.
Such a gathering of saints and great sages could probably only happen in the human holy land of the void realm.
In the real universe, all the saints and great saints are stationed in their own regions, and there is basically no possibility of them gathering together.
"coming."
"Fellow Daoist has emerged."
The nearly 100,000 figures waiting outside the palace stopped talking and looked at Su Yuan with smiles on their faces when they saw him come out.
You can call me Su Yuan.
Su Yuan spoke up.
Whether it's Su Yuan, Wu, or Ming, it's just a code name, and there's no real danger in revealing it.
Among the curse-killing secrets of the Karma lineage, there is indeed a method of directly cursing and killing enemies based on their 'names'.
But the 'name' here is just a facade; the essence is to use cause and effect to curse and kill.
Knowing the 'name' is of no use. The most important thing is that the person who performs the curse must have a causal relationship with the person being cursed.
After all, the probability of people sharing the same name is too high. If you only know the name, how can you use a curse to kill someone?
Furthermore, using a 'name' to curse someone implies that one's understanding of cause and effect is not very deep.
A true master of cause and effect doesn't need to rely on names at all; as long as there is a cause and effect relationship between the two parties, that's enough.
For example, the Supreme Being of Chaos has thoroughly comprehended the supreme rule of cause and effect. Under the chaotic life form, no matter who it is or where they are, as long as they think of a certain Supreme Being in their heart, they will be sensed and can then take action according to the slight cause and effect relationship.
"Su Yuan?"
"They do not bear the surnames of Primordial, Demon Mountain, or Floating Pagoda, and are not members of the three high-ranking royal families?"
Many saints and great saints deduced a great deal of information simply from the name Su Yuan gave them.
After all, a significant portion of those who can cultivate to the level of cosmic life are strategists, and deducing the essence of things from existing information is precisely what strategists excel at.
"Su Yuan, this is Fan Yu."
A thin, elderly man walked up.
"Brother Fanyu."
Su Yuan nodded slightly.
The Great Sage Fanyu was the one who sent the message to Su Yuan, expressing his desire to visit. He came from the Human Empire of the Demon Mountain Universe.
The Demon Mountain Universe Human Empire is the second advanced cosmic human empire of the human race, and the Supreme Being of Demon Mountain has even attained the Supreme Being realm with a massive physical body.
The physical body of the Supreme Being of Demon Mountain was formed by absorbing the essence of the physical bodies of powerful beings from the creation era, such as the Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor, and is hailed as the most terrifying physical body among the Supreme Beings.
"Thank you for visiting, everyone."
Su Yuan looked at the other many Saints and Great Saints and spoke.
"Brother Su Yuan, you're too kind."
"It is our honor to visit Brother Su Yuan."
"Yes, it would take countless eras for our human race to produce a powerhouse like Brother Su Yuan."
Nearly 100,000 saints and great saints treated Su Yuan with utmost politeness and even humility.
After all, Su Yuan is most likely to be the most powerful saint in the future of the human race, dominating an era for hundreds of millions of years.
Among the Great Saints of the human race in this era, there are no powerful individuals who have condensed a top-level Holy Body. The Great Saint of the Extreme Heaven is still in the stage of attempting to condense a top-level Holy Body.
Su Yuanchu, upon entering the cosmic life form, condensed a top-tier holy body. As long as he continues to cultivate step by step, becoming a Great Saint and dominating the thirty-six major human empires of the universe is almost inevitable.
Unlike the past, where powerful figures only condensed top-tier holy bodies during their Great Sage stage, Su Yuan condensed a top-tier holy body far too early. Such terrifying potential would make even a Great Sage tremble.
“Brother Su Yuan, you are new to the Void Realm. In principle, all the Saints and Great Saints of our human race should come to see you. However, some Saints and Great Saints are in seclusion and cannot be disturbed, so they did not come. Please forgive us.”
"Great Sage Fanyu spoke up."
Since entering the Void Realm Holy Land Continent means being at the core of the human race, the number of saints and great saints in this era of the human race is clear.
After all, the number of palaces on the Holy Land Continent represents the number of Saints and Great Saints, and once a corresponding Saint or Great Saint falls and dies, his or her palace will also disappear.
With the speed of thought of a cosmic being, it's clear at a glance.
"Ah."
Su Yuan nodded.
Through the gray mirror, Su Yuan naturally knew that some of the saints and great saints who did not come to visit were indeed in deep seclusion.
But most people are simply too lazy to come and visit.
Especially some of the Great Sages, who believed that no matter how strong Su Yuan was, it had nothing to do with them. The Great Sages' goal was the ultimate leap, so could Su Yuan possibly help them improve their chances of the ultimate leap?
Since it's not possible, there's no need to visit.
"Is he in seclusion? I think he doesn't want to come and visit."
A sage whispered, “I knew a great sage who said that Brother Su Yuan is not a supreme being, so why should he be worthy of a personal visit?”
"Yes, with Brother Su Yuan's potential, he has a great chance of becoming a supreme being in the future. Those people are short-sighted, and they will regret it when the time comes."
Many of the saints present expressed their dissatisfaction.
"It's just a personal choice; there's no need to force it."
Su Yuan said that he didn't necessarily expect all human saints and great saints to take the initiative to come and pay their respects; that would be too domineering.
However, all the saints and great saints who visit this time will gain many benefits in their subsequent transactions with Su Yuan. In fact, some great saints will even profit from this visit in the future. Naturally, those saints and great saints who do not visit will not benefit from this.
"Please sit down, everyone."
With a wave of his hand, Su Yuan conjured up chairs from all directions. This technique was a rudimentary application of the supreme rules of illusion. The essence of the supreme rules of illusion is to turn the illusory into the real, to create something from nothing, and to replicate all things.
The illusory supreme rule of the life form Qingxu can even briefly replicate other supreme rules.
"Brother Su Yuan has just become a cosmic life form. If there is anything you don't understand or any difficulties you encounter, please feel free to speak up, and we will definitely lend a helping hand."
After sitting down, the Great Sage Fanyu immediately spoke enthusiastically.
"Yes, Brother Su Yuan, please feel free to tell me what you need."
"We will definitely do our best."
The other saints and great saints echoed this.
They came to visit Su Yuan to befriend this future greatest human saint.
The simplest way to make friends is naturally to lend a helping hand.
It should be understood that if they truly helped Su Yuan, it would create karma, and when Su Yuan becomes a Great Sage and challenges the Chaos Life, he will sort out his own karma.
In other words, it's about repaying their karmic debts. When Su Yuan first entered the cosmic realm, he offered his full assistance without expecting anything in return, only to repay them when they became the most powerful saint among humans. What a worthwhile investment!
Among the many saints and great saints present, they were not afraid of Su Yuan speaking, but rather afraid that Su Yuan would not speak.
"Hahaha, thank you all."
Su Yuan smiled slightly, clearly understanding the thoughts in the minds of all the saints and great saints.
However, Su Yuan didn't care. He believed in equal exchange. If there really was a Saint or Great Saint on the field who could truly help Su Yuan, Su Yuan wouldn't mind repaying the other party with what they desired.
"I do need your help with something."
Su Yuan flipped his right hand, and a huge light screen immediately appeared not far away.
The light screen displayed a series of words and information, which were the numerous cultivation resources and rare treasures needed in Su Yuan's future cultivation plan.
After becoming a cosmic life form, Su Yuan's demand for external resources and rare treasures increased, especially after he reached the rank of Great Sage.
"I need all the treasures and rare items on this site. If anyone can provide them, I am willing to pay a price to buy them, or barter with them."
Su Yuan looked at the many saints and great saints and spoke.
In fact, every treasure and rare item on the light screen was specifically proposed by Su Yuan based on the treasures and resources possessed by the many Great Sages present.
This is also the most efficient transaction.
"That crystal looks a lot like the one I got."
A sage looked at the various treasures and rare items on the light screen, his gaze settling on one of them.
This crystal is called Hun Tian Jing. It is hexagonal and can devour the mind. This saint obtained it during an exploration of a secret realm and has never figured out its purpose.
"Brother Su Yuan."
After a moment's hesitation, the sage stepped forward and looked at Su Yuan, saying, "I have a piece of Hun Tian Crystal."
"The Golden Scale Saint".
Su Yuan looked over there.
The other party was named Golden Scale Saint, a mid-level Saint, who appeared quite ordinary among the visiting Saints and Great Saints.
However, because he was the first to speak, he immediately attracted the attention of all the saints and great saints present.
"The Hun Tian Crystal is a rare treasure at the Great Sage level. I wonder what the Golden Scale Sage needs?"
Su Yuanwen said gently.
“I am willing to offer this to Brother Su Yuan.”
The Golden Scale Saint immediately spoke.
Compared to other treasures and rare items, he naturally longed for Su Yuan's favor.
Even if one doesn't need the favor of the most powerful saint of the future human race, it can bring endless benefits to one's descendants.
It is foreseeable that the next hundreds of millions of years will be Su Yuan's era. As long as he has the other party's favor, who will dare to make things difficult for him in the next hundreds of millions of years?
"There's no need to offer it to me."
Su Yuan smiled slightly, "I observe that the Golden Scale Saint is currently comprehending the supreme rules of Yang. I have a supreme Yang Origin Stone, and I have fifty years left to comprehend it. Is the Golden Scale Saint interested?"
This Supreme Yang Origin Stone is not the Supreme Yang Origin Stone that Su Yuan obtained when he broke through the "Myriad Labyrinths".
That piece of supreme Yang Origin Stone has long been used up.
The Supreme Yang Origin Stone that Su Yuan currently possesses is a rare treasure he obtained by exchanging it during the opening of the battlefield.
It was used to replace the previous Supreme Yang Origin Stone, so that Su Yuan could comprehend and understand the Supreme Yang and Supreme Rules.
Now that Su Yuan has fully comprehended the supreme rules of Yang, the supreme Yang origin stone is naturally useless to him, so it is only natural that he trades it for the resources he needs.
"The ultimate Yang source stone, the result of fifty years of comprehension?"
The Golden Scale Saint was deeply moved. The Supreme Yang Origin Stone was a consumable item; once it was used, it would be one less available before the next opening of the Origin Land of the Universe.
The channels for obtaining the Supreme Yang Origin Stone are extremely rare. They can be found in the "Myriad Labyrinths," by opening up battlefields, or by contributing to the human race.
These channels are easily accessible to someone like the Golden Scale Saint, a mid-level Saint.
"If I could obtain a piece of the Supreme Yang Origin Stone, I would very likely comprehend the Supreme Yang Supreme Rule. At that time, I would be a late-stage Saint, and I would also have more time to try to integrate the three supreme rules and join the ranks of Great Saint."
The Golden Scale Saint thought to himself.
The maximum lifespan of life in the universe is one hundred million years.
The sooner you become a Great Sage, the more time you'll have to attempt the final, ultimate leap.
Some powerful beings who have spent over 90 million years to become Great Sages have virtually no hope of successfully completing the final leap.
"Thank you, Brother Su Yuan. I am willing to make the exchange."
The Golden Scale Saint said with a hint of respect.
It seems that the Golden Scale Saint was at a disadvantage to exchange the Supreme Yang Origin Stone, which he only had fifty years left to comprehend, for a Great Sage-level treasure like the Hun Tian Crystal.
But in fact, before today, the Golden Scale Saint had no idea of the true purpose of the Hun Tian Crystal.
A treasure whose purpose is unknown is nothing but trash.
Now, with Su Yuan's reminder, he used a small amount of the Hun Tian Crystal, which was considered waste, to exchange for a Supreme Yang Origin Stone that would help him advance to the later stages of Sainthood.
This is an absolute steal!
Next, Su Yuan and the Golden Scale Saint confirmed the delivery locations for each other and sent the Supreme Yang Origin Stone and the Hun Tian Crystal to each other respectively.
With the Golden Scale Saint taking the lead, one by one, the many Great Saints on the field spoke up, voluntarily revealing which treasures and rare items they possessed.
Su Yuan also traded with the other party in a manner that was almost an equal exchange, based on the other party's needs.
This made the saints and great saints, who originally intended to make Su Yuan owe them a favor, sigh inwardly. However, they were able to obtain the treasures, rare items, and even secret techniques that they urgently needed. This visit was definitely worthwhile, especially since they had also made an appearance in front of Su Yuan, which would allow them to conduct business with him again in the future.
At least the two sides are no longer strangers.
On the continent of the Void Realm Holy Land, Su Yuan's spiritual avatar was making a deal with many human saints and great saints.
In the real universe, on Blue Star, on the Arctic continent, Su Yuan's true form sat cross-legged, contemplating his next cultivation steps.
“Look at those three supreme treasures.”
Su Yuan's heart stirred slightly, and a black ring appeared in front of him.
The black ring contained ten treasures, three of which were supreme treasures and seven were near-supreme treasures, which Su Yuan had obtained through a trade with the Great Sage of the Heavens.
For these ten treasures, Su Yuan helped the Great Sage of the Heavens change the predetermined future and also added a mid-sized human empire to the human race.
"The Book of Cause and Effect".
The first thing Su Yuan took out was the Book of Cause and Effect.
The Book of Cause and Effect is also one of only three supreme-level treasures among the ten treasures.
hum~
The Book of Cause and Effect was tens of thousands of miles in size, but it could be rapidly shrunk under Su Yuan's control, finally stopping when it was the size of two palms and hovering in front of Su Yuan.
"Supreme Treasure of Cause and Effect"
With a hint of anticipation in his heart, Su Yuan slowly turned to the first page of the Book of Cause and Effect.
Splash!
A mysterious fluctuation emerged, pulling Su Yuan's mind into a bizarre and fantastical space.
