With just a casual glance, Lin Yang understood the whole story. Essentially, this Ye Liangchen had offended Long Aotian a few years ago because of a treasure.
Long Aotian, being very powerful, seduced Ye Liangchen's power-hungry wife, leading to some discordant events. Then, he began hunting down Ye Liangchen. A very typical, very cliché story.
Soon, the end came. Ye Liangchen died on the spot, and even his body was chopped into several pieces, a very bloody scene.
Seeing this, Lin Yang gently extended his right hand, and the whole world froze in that instant, even time stopped.
She took out the boy's soul and threw it directly towards the upper class. At the same time, she also provided a considerable amount of energy. Seeing this, the ruthless woman blinked her beautiful eyes several times, seemingly discovering something and deep in thought.
With a splash, the drop of water containing Ye Liangchen's soul fell into a certain place upstream.
"Long Aotian, you'll die a horrible death!"
"Wait a minute, wasn't I dead? How did I come back to life? And where am I? Looking at this dilapidated place, isn't this the house I rented before I entered the game 'Tianxia'?"
After a long time, Ye Liangchen finally understood the cause and effect; he had transmigrated.
"In this life, I will make sure the sky can no longer obscure my vision! I will make sure the earth can no longer bury my heart! I will make sure all living beings understand my will! Long Aotian, just you wait!"
Then began his legendary life... while Lin Yang and the ruthless man stood quietly to the side, watching with great force.
"Yes, with your help, Ye Liangchen returned to the past, but it wasn't actually the past. Because the moment he returned, a new timeline appeared. It seems like he changed everything, but in reality, his experiences in the original timeline remained unchanged."
"This is time. Every change, every choice, can sometimes create a new timeline. For example, the reason why Ye Liangchen was able to create this new timeline is because I helped him by providing him with enough energy."
"The universe is vast and full of wonders. Through various coincidences, numerous timelines can be formed. Moreover, the beings in each timeline are different and have changed. And all these timelines together constitute what is known as the multiverse."
"Just like this Xuan-level world now, under my control, there are already two timelines. And the connection between these two timelines is this Ye Liangchen. Therefore, he is the well-deserved protagonist. If he dies, this second timeline will automatically become nothingness."
With that, Lin Yang stopped providing energy, and the world where Ye Liangchen was reborn instantly turned into nothingness.
"You see, this is the result of external forces. Generally speaking, only the Great Luo can truly support the existence of the multiverse. They are like pillars, indispensable, and the most important components of the multiverse."
"Of course, the Great Luo relies on its own energy to power the multiverse. Therefore, they are the undisputed protagonists in this world."
"Take the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race, Confucius, Sun Tzu, and others, for example. They all exist in countless timelines. This is why, in the multiverse, almost every timeline has their legends. Moreover, the legends are almost identical in essence."

Chapter 78: History That Cannot Be Changed
Remember me in one second! Fast updates, free to read!
If the key to attaining the Dao Lord status is the river of time, then the key to attaining the Great Luo status is this multiverse. More specifically, it is the infinite timeline.
Of course, it might not be infinite, but rather finite. However, for Lin Yang and others who haven't yet entered other timelines, what difference does it make whether it's infinite or not?
The river of time exists in every timeline. But the river of destiny is shared by the entire multiverse. This is why many theories suggest that attaining the Great Luo realm requires transcending the river of destiny.
“We failed again. This time, the reason Chi You failed was… well, I don’t want to analyze the reasons anymore. How many times have we failed?” Standing outside the world, Lin Yang said somewhat dejectedly.
"It's been over 130 times. The first time, we were a bit careless. Later, either Chi You ran into trouble, or the Yellow Emperor's side became even more powerful. Even if we were to withdraw midway, we were still no match for destiny. After all, under the limitations of the world, our strength is actually not that great."
“Unless we want to destroy this world, there’s no way to change the outcome of the Yellow Emperor’s victory and Chi You’s defeat. Could this be the characteristic of the Great Luo? Another explanation for its eternal immutability?” the ruthless man asked with some curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang began to think seriously. Great Luo, well, how to put it... the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race were all Great Luo. Therefore, Lin Yang wanted to take this opportunity to test and observe the characteristics of Great Luo.
So, they found a Yellow-level world, a nascent classical feudal world in the East. They arrived at the time of the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou, wanting to change history, but the result was obvious: given the world's existence, this point was unchangeable.
No matter how many cutting-edge technologies Lin Yang brought out, or even if he shamelessly took to the field himself, Chi You would always ultimately fail.
Sometimes, failure is caused by an unexpected downpour. Other times, it's due to a falling meteor. For example, consider the Battle of Kunyang against the Grand Magister Liu Xiu.
During crucial moments of the war, such as the decisive battle between Chi You and the Yellow Emperor, no matter how great Chi You's previous advantages, he would falter. For example, a meteor might fall from the sky, or a shooting star might hit the camp at night, causing chaos and panic within the army!
"After all, it's just a Yellow-level world. With a meteorite falling, we can't change much. Hmm, we can find a Profound-level world to test it out. Let's see if we can change the history of the Great Luo."
Not long after, the two reappeared in a Xuan-level world. They were somewhat dejected, but also somewhat happy.
"Alas, without the power to destroy the world, the power we can wield is always limited. Due to the machinations of fate, we still failed," Lin Yang sighed. At the same time, he gained some new insights into the Great Luo Immortal; it was truly too domineering.
This time, it was still the time for a decisive battle, and Chi You's eighty brothers all met with misfortune. Some went mad with evil, some hesitated at the crucial moment, and some went berserk.
By the way, the experts in the Yellow Emperor's camp all broke through their limits in the face of battle. Even the Yellow Emperor himself broke through several times in succession.
He went directly from a third-tier Grandmaster, shattering the void on the spot, and then broke through again and again, reaching the peak of the fourth tier, and even half a step into the fifth tier. Wielding the Xuanyuan Sword, he single-handedly stopped Chi You.
"This is the Great Luo, eternal and unchanging. With our strength at the half-step eighth level, we can't even change a small piece of history. Isn't this gap a bit too big?"
As he spoke, Lin Yang subconsciously frowned. Luckily, he hadn't deliberately ventured into worlds possessing Great Luo Immortals before; otherwise, he would have been discovered the moment he appeared. At that point, his life or death would have been entirely up to others' whims!
"After the Yellow Emperor attained the Great Luo realm, everything that happened to him became predetermined. Only the Great Luo realm can change the Great Luo realm. And only the predetermined fate can change the predetermined fate. Unless the Great Luo realms fight each other, the history related to them cannot be changed," the ruthless man concluded.
When she spoke of the Great Luo Immortal, her eyes lit up with envy. However, she quickly regained her confidence. "So what if I'm the Great Luo Immortal? One day, I can be one too!"
He didn't know how much time had passed, how many worlds he had experienced, or how many times he had failed. In the end, Lin Yang himself grew tired of it all.
"Sigh, it seems we can't change history on our own. Hmm, let's try a different approach and observe these Great Luo Immortals. We'll carefully observe their lives and their history of attaining enlightenment. We'll find that world and discuss it thoroughly with them before they attained enlightenment." Lin Yang patted his forehead and came up with this idea.
The ruthless person naturally didn't care; anyway, there was plenty of time, so he might as well treat it as a honeymoon with Lin Yang.
In a world at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm, an old woman, an old woman of very ordinary strength, finally gave birth to her son after being pregnant for a hundred or eighty years. Then, after taking one look at her son, she was so frightened that she died.
It turns out that this child looked like a little old man from the moment he was born. His hair was white, his beard was white, and even his face had many wrinkles.
Originally, due to her long pregnancy, the old woman had little essence left and her lifespan was nearing its end. Now, after being frightened, she suddenly passed away.
However, this originally frightening scene had no effect on the newborn baby whatsoever.
