After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yi came to his senses, and the question in his heart had been answered.
The portal in the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows is the manifestation of the Dao fruit of a "Taiyuan Star Venerable" from a destroyed universe.
This is a transcendent hope, and also an eternal seed.
As Lin Yi grows, this seed will take root, sprout, grow leaves, blossom, bear fruit, and eventually mature into a flawless Dao fruit.
Lin Yi observed the gate in his sea of consciousness, carefully experiencing the will contained within it, and finally silently said in his heart: "From now on, let's call this gate the 'Gate to the Other Shore'."
The Gate to the Other Shore is inscribed with many marks, which are the coordinates of various dimensional universes. These are the treasures that "Taiyuan Star Venerable" gained by traversing the multiverse with the power of cosmic destruction.

In the quiet room, Lin Yi opened his eyes, smiled leisurely, and said, "So my journey is to conquer all the heavens and myriad worlds!"
A person's vision determines their perspective and the level of their life.
The frog in the well thought the sky was the same size as the well opening, not as vast as others described. But when it finally jumped out of the well, it discovered that the sky was not as small as it had imagined.
When Lin Yi came into this world and came into contact with cultivation, his life goal became immortality.
Now, a wider world has appeared before him; immortality and cultivation are the end, but also a new beginning.
The Great Dao is vast and boundless; we cultivators should strive to explore it from top to bottom.
Lin Yi stood up and paced around the room a few times. After a while, his excitement gradually subsided.
Then, Lin Yi took out a sandalwood incense stick, lit it, and inserted it into the crane-beak incense burner. The wisps of fragrance rose in a spiral, spreading into a hazy cloud of smoke in the room.
This is a Taoist secret recipe for sandalwood incense, which has the effect of calming the mind and refreshing the spirit, and is worth a fortune.
Lin Yi sat cross-legged on the cloud bed, his palms facing upwards, seemingly half-awake and half-asleep, his mind entering a state of ethereal mystery.
A Taoist scripture appeared in his mind, with one "true text" after another jumping around, radiating its own brilliance, like a group of naughty children.
Gradually, the "children" got tired of playing and stopped messing around. Lin Yi finally counted them and found that there were a total of 1,296 "True Scripts".
These "true texts" are varied in meaning, each with its own interpretation. With different arrangements and combinations, they are even more enigmatic and difficult to understand.
Fortunately, the "Taiyuan Star Venerable" did not make things difficult for Lin Yi. As the starlight flickered and the Daoist rhyme flowed, he naturally understood the true meaning contained within it.
The next morning, Lin Yi pushed open the door and went into the courtyard. Gazing at the rising sun and feeling the divine meaning it contained, boundless joy welled up in his heart.
The celestial sphere naturally includes the sun and moon.
The sun and moon represent yin and yang. For the first time, Lin Yi truly felt the moving power of the alternation of the sun and moon and the creation of yin and yang.
It's like a blind person finally being able to see the world.
Although this feeling will gradually fade with time.
But at this moment, Lin Yi couldn't help but immerse himself in it.
Within his sea of consciousness, the Star River Scripture transformed into a boundless, endless celestial river, flowing slowly.
The movement of the sun and moon originates from within it.
The starry sky shines brightly, originating from within.
It encompasses heaven and earth, and contains the universe. Its vastness and grandeur are beyond description, even with all the words in the world.
As the stars shift and the constellations change, the changes are ever-present, echoing the acupoints on Lin Yi's body, regulating Yin and Yang, and encompassing the Five Elements.
Then, a technique appeared in his mind, called "Seven Luminaries Star Pivot Sword Technique".
"As expected of the 'Star River True Scripture,' it is indeed a supreme Daoist method that directly points to the origin of the Great Dao, moving with the world and secretly conforming to creation." Lin Yi admired it in his heart.
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. All the servants in Qingxia Palace have been given a holiday. Only a few, like Lin Yi, are orphans and have nowhere else to go, so they remain on the mountain.
Lin Yi left Tingtao Pavilion and headed towards the front of the mountain.
As we walked along, Qingxia Palace remained as desolate as ever.
When Lin Yi reached the door, he stopped, still somewhat hesitant about whether he should go in to wish Chen Jingming a Happy New Year.
"Come in," Chen Jingming's voice came from inside the door.
Lin Yi gently lifted the curtain and went inside.
Chen Jingming, dressed in a Taoist robe, sat cross-legged on his couch. The changes in the outside world seemed to have no effect on him whatsoever.
Lin Yi made a curtsy and said, "May the Heavenly Venerable grant you boundless blessings."
Chen Jingming nodded slightly, looked Lin Yi up and down a few times, and then asked, "Junior Nephew Lin, which Taoist technique have you mastered?"
Lin Yi nodded and said, "Yes, I succeeded."
“If your master were alive, he would be very happy.” Chen Jingming was very pleased, and then asked, “What kind of Dao body did you cultivate?”
Lin Yi said, "The Zhou Tian Star Body can communicate with the power of stars in the Nine Heavens."
As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand, joined his index and middle fingers together, and then stabbed the ground.
A sword aura flew out, leaving a shallow pit in the ground.
What Lin Yi used was the power of the stars. Although this was only the most basic application.
Seeing this, Chen Jingming thought for a moment and said, "Among the Daoist sects that cultivate based on the power of stars, aside from military strategists, the Star Palace of the Northern Frontier is the foremost. In addition, it is said that only my Sword Sect possesses the 'Star River Creation Sword Canon,' which is also a leader in this field..."
