Late Stage 4
In an instant, he was promoted to the peak of the fourth rank.

Chapter 87: The Eye of Heaven
Then, at the foot of Mount Li, in a tomb, accompanied by a burst of purple light, an incomparably domineering middle-aged man, dressed in a black dragon robe, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Heh, Heaven is in trouble, a powerful force is invading, and many experts are being summoned to resist? Heh, fine, I'll make a move just for the sake of waking me up."
"However, after this action, I will definitely deal with that bitch Ziyuan properly, so as not to fail the grace of her slumber over the past two thousand years."
Then, the middle-aged man took a step forward, transforming into a gigantic black dragon hundreds of feet long, and soared towards the sky. Along the way, the aura of the entire black dragon rapidly increased.
Meanwhile, at the foot of the pyramid, a mummy that had been dead for many years suddenly opened its eyes. Its previously emaciated body instantly regenerated under the purple divine light. Then, holding a staff, it left the pyramid that had slumbered for so long.
In London, the world's leading superpower, the so-called British Empire on which the sun never sets, a sword of oath, embedded in a stone, once again gently swayed and emitted a joyful sound in a dark underground place.
Then, a young woman dressed in armor walked step by step to the stone and gently drew out the legendary sword of kingship.
"Wow, who is this woman? She's so powerful! She can fly through the clouds and control her qi. Even from a distance, I can feel the powerful sword intent emanating from the sword in her hand. Could this be what they call a sword cultivator?" Zhan Lan said with envy. After speaking, she looked directly at Taiyin beside her.
"This woman's strength is unfathomable. I certainly can't see through it. Her robes must be what is called celestial robes, they are quite seamless. Even the shoes on her feet and the wooden hairpin on her head are magical treasures."
"As for the sword in her hand, it's even more extraordinary. Even though it's not yet drawn, and even from this distance, it still exudes a terrifying, earth-shattering aura. In addition, this woman came from Tibet, so it's highly likely that she is Ziyuan," Taiyin analyzed.
As he spoke, he widened his eyes, observing closely. This was a sword cultivator, and seemingly a pure sword cultivator at that. A powerful sword cultivator who had cultivated for at least two thousand years.
Previously, I had only seen related records in Taoist scriptures, and I had never seen such a powerful figure before.
However, it is estimated that only such a powerful figure could survive for two thousand years after killing the Qin Emperor and bearing the backlash of the Ancestral Dragon's aura.
Soon, four figures appeared in the sky. At this moment, with the blessing of Heaven, the four of them had broken through all obstacles and arrived here, having reached the peak of the fourth rank in terms of strength.
Accompanied by the roar of dragons, powerful sword energies, and a series of strange incantations, the battle between the people became increasingly fierce.
Even though they were far apart, one high in the heavens and the other on the ground, they were still brightly lit at a glance. Soon, all four of them broke through to the fifth level of strength.
To everyone else, they were like the sun, incredibly bright; with the naked eye, one could only see countless dazzling rays of light. Their abilities were too weak to even understand them.
"Even from this distance, I can feel the power of each strike, which is capable of destroying the world and burning mountains and boiling seas. It is truly powerful." Taiyin made a hand seal with her right hand and placed it above her head. Then she squinted her eyes and observed carefully.
"Yes, all sorts of profound artistic conceptions are everywhere. This is what a great being is like." As he spoke, the color of Old Wang's eyes changed. This was the so-called Sun and Moon True Eyes.
However, despite this, and despite being separated by a world, the four were still no match for Zhang Jiao in black robes.
"First, the summoning of outstanding individuals will be followed by the manifestation of divine will. This world once produced a fifth-tier expert, making it a world of earth-level rank. Although it cannot compare to the main world, it is still very precious."
"However, now that its grade has dropped from low-grade Earth to high-grade Profound, the strongest person is only at the peak of the fourth rank. It's highly likely that they won't be able to withstand it," Lin Yang shook his head and muttered to himself.
Sure enough, a moment later, a gigantic eye appeared out of thin air. This eye seemed devoid of any emotion, appearing cold and indifferent.
However, that's just how nature works. Only by being ruthless can it be truly impartial. Once nature becomes compassionate, it means that this world is not far from its end.
At the same time, earthquakes struck the earth. Waves surged across the ocean. And countless gales swept across the sky.
"This is the result of the imbalance between earth, water, wind, and fire. If this continues, this world will be doomed," Lin Yang murmured.
The Heavenly Dao is going all out; it's clear that if things continue like this, countless years of accumulation will be destroyed in an instant. At that point, even if Zhang Jiao in black robes obtains this world, it will be a world of diminished quality and devoid of all potential.
snort
With a muffled groan, time seemed to stand still. The surrounding air and earth all froze for a moment. Even the Eye of Heaven in the sky paused for a split second.
Then, in that instant, a gigantic hand reached in and grabbed the enormous eye. With a gentle squeeze, it exploded, releasing drops of bluish blood.
At the same time, beams of golden light burst forth from his palm, spreading in all directions. Simultaneously, streams of chaotic spiritual energy transformed directly into innate spiritual energy, entering this world through the opening. Little by little, they strengthened the foundation of this world.
Lin Yang knew that the Heavenly Dao was finished. The benefits were not so easy to obtain. By absorbing the Dao and principles that Zhang Jiao deliberately released, and by absorbing the innate spiritual energy that Zhang Jiao transformed, he had incurred Zhang Jiao's karmic debt.
Then, Zhang Jiao could openly appear in this world. In an instant, he would transform from a smuggler and an extraterrestrial demon into an insider. At that point, Zhang Jiao would have a thousand ways to slowly manipulate this world and eventually gain complete control over it.
This time, they have completely taken control of a world, a high-grade Xuan-level world whose rank had been lowered. How many experts can they cultivate for the Taiping Dao then?
Moreover, was Zhang Jiao the only one doing this? Did the imperial court or the royal family do the same? Did those powerful aristocratic families do the same?
The waters of the main world are truly deep!
Every time Lin Yang thought he understood everything and had everything under control, he was immediately proven wrong by reality. It's true that the more you know, the more you fear.
Then, Lin Yang shook his head and returned directly to the Main God Space. If he didn't leave now, he might really be unable to leave.

Chapter 88: Return, Gains, and Authority
One C-level storyline, 5,000 reward points. That was Lin Yang's final reward, a paltry sum.
The C-level storyline, plus 3,000 reward points, was for burying Imhotep; the remaining 2,000 points were the reward for winning the team battle and earning one point. Such a small reward is truly meager.
Shaking his head, Lin Yang began exchanging his items. After all, he would have to return to the Land of Reincarnation in at most an hour. He didn't know when he would be able to come back again.
Looking up, Lin Yang spotted a large ball of light.
"Is this the true form of the main god?" With that, Lin Yang began to examine it closely. At first glance, its aura was purple, meaning it was a genuine fifth-tier magic weapon. It was just rather special.
"A three-thousand-year-old peach, which can grant immortality upon consumption, is worth one B-level storyline and is worth five thousand reward points."
"The Tai'a Sword is the sword of the King of Qin, a sword of power and prestige, worth one A-level storyline and 10,000 reward points."
