2348 This is My World to Start With!
Eternal Source did his best to retract all of his aura and stabilize his tone. “Ten Thousand Source, am I right to say that you leaked the news of losing a big source fruit sprouts just to lure us here?”
Lin Yuan did not try to lie and nodded, praising Eternal Source, “Your guess is right. You have acute instincts and have what it takes to be a leader. If you’re willing, you can lead the other six from now on. The days of an ecosystem of individual kings are over. I want unity and nothing else!”
Lin Yuan’s words caused the expressions of everyone besides Eternal Source and Mist Source to change, but none dared to protest as they knew they were no longer in control of whether they lived or died!
None of them were willing to play around with their own lives.
Evil Source and Vine Source had killed thousands of subordinates to make examples out of them.
Life was far from being regarded as valuable in the marsh world.
Eternal Source did not look happy or excited after receiving Lin Yuan’s praise. Instead, he mulled over Lin Yuan’s last statement.
A moment later, Eternal Source felt it would not necessarily be bad if the factions of the marsh world could become one!
No matter how capable of looking at the big picture Eternal Source was, he still placed his profits before everything when he considered matters.
It was clear that Lin Yuan’s words aligned with Eternal Source’s profits.
But Eternal Source did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked Lin Yuan quickly, “Are you a lifeform from this world?”
Lin Yuan was even more impressed with Eternal Source when he heard that. He did not reply immediately but asked in response, “What do you define as a lifeform from this world?”
Eternal Source had not anticipated this question from Lin Yuan.
Eternal Source mulled over the question for a moment before he answered, “A lifeform who was born and raised on this land or sincerely wants to safeguard the lives here will be considered a lifeform from this world!”
Lin Yuan replied, “The root of this world is a tree. All of you are fruits on this tree. The tree is linked to my bloodline, making this my world. Wouldn’t you say that that makes me a lifeform from this world? So, as lifeforms that were produced in this world, that makes you my citizens!”
Lin Yuan did not try to hide the existence of the Abundance Treasure Tree because these seven Dictators who represented the highest power in the marsh world were already considered his citizens. There were no drawbacks to letting them know about the truth of their world.
Moreover, once the Abundance Treasure Tree took full control of the marsh world, the marsh world would eventually be fused with the other worlds. Hence, the earlier the lifeforms knew about the truth of the marsh world, the better it would be.
While he spoke, Lin Yuan took out seven Diamond fey storage boxes and handed one to each of the seven Dictators.
“Use your spiritual energy to retrieve the big and small source fruit sprouts from this spatial equipment. If you guide the big and small source fruit sprouts with your source-type power and water them with the spirit fluids inside the spatial equipment, you’ll be able to attain the big and small source fruits.”
Eternal Source quickly used his spiritual energy to check inside the Diamond fey storage box. What he saw caused his expression to freeze.
There were 300 big and small source fruit sprouts inside. He could not imagine how many big and small source fruits could be grown from them!
Previously, he still had some doubts about what Lin Yuan was saying.
He had lived in the marsh world for thousands of years and was the strongest being in this entire world.
Yet, someone just came along and told him that he was nothing but a mere citizen.
It would be difficult for even the most magnanimous person to accept this reality.
But once Lin Yuan gifted them the big and small source fruit sprouts, it became very difficult for Eternal Source to continue denying this fact.
At that moment, Vine Source frowned and said, “The potions meant to water the big and small source fruit sprouts have the exact same energy aura as the other world. You claim that we’re your citizens, but are you actually in cahoots with the other world?”
Lin Yuan did not rebuke what Vine Source said, nor did he confirm it.
If he had to be technical about it, Lin Yuan now had ties to four worlds.
The first was the previous world from his previous life, next was the main world, then the marsh world, and finally, the divine kingdom in his mind.
Lin Yuan intended to scale greater heights in the future, so he no longer belonged to just one world.
“You might have entered the Samsara Realm, but your viewpoint is much too narrow. In the future, you’ll have the chance to explore new worlds and learn about their ways of life.
“The dimensional rift that leads to the main world, or the other world as you call it, is anchored to the marsh world and is under your protection. My suggestion is that you don’t pass through this Class 6 dimensional rift into the main world because you will immediately find yourself under a violent attack that you are unlikely to survive!
“For now, use these big and small source fruit sprouts to improve yourselves!”
Lin Yuan had succinctly described the pros and cons and believed that Dictators who could reach the Samsara Realm were no fools.
He distributed the big and small source fruits because the Abundance Treasure Tree allowed him to take full control of the marsh world. Since the marsh world was now part of his private power, it would be worth investing in it, regardless of how much resources it took.
Furthermore, Lin Yuan did not need these big and small source fruits as leverage over these Dictators anymore. He now controlled them and could allocate the marsh world’s resources as he saw fit.
Lastly, the big and small source fruits would be the best tool to settle them down. After all, it was difficult for such haughty beings who saw themselves as above all else to become his subordinates!
If he did not use something to settle them, they would start to plot and scheme against him even if they listened to his orders while under the Abundance Treasure Tree’s control. This was not what Lin Yuan wanted.
Eternal Source had seen the truth and was just praised by Lin Yuan. He quickly said, “Don’t worry. We will defend that Class 6 dimensional rift with our lives and focus on increasing our power first!”
This was the first time that Eternal Source heard that the world he belonged to was called the marsh world and that the other world it was linked to was called the main world.
Lin Yuan’s revelation of such information made him seem even more mysterious and enigmatic.
“I don’t need you to address me as Master, nor will I get in your way too often. But if I have any orders for you, I’m sure you know what the right thing to do will be.”
