2757 The Destroyed Dimensional Wall!
Lin Yuan would not call himself selfless, but he had indeed used numerous resources to develop and break ground on this enormous main world as well as protect all of the humans, sea clans, and dimensional lifeforms in it. He had caused the plan that Tower Canon had carefully woven together to fail to achieve its goal of destroying the main world.
Most of Lin Yuan’s ties to the main world were with Radiance citizens. In everything that he did, he would fulfill his priority first.
[Lin Yuan]: Wen Yu, this is actually a good thing for the main world and the Radiance Federation. Our resources come from the entire main world as well as the dimensional worlds. If these resources are used to build fleets of boats that service the dimensional worlds and main world through enabling trade, the main world will enter a period of rapid development.
[Lin Yuan]: This is critical for a Class 2 world! It isn’t bad for every federation to have their own culture. The flow of trade will allow the individual federations’ cultures to interact, and this will continuously make up for any gaps in each federation’s culture.
When Wen Yu saw the contents of Lin Yuan’s messages, she realized that she was too short-sighted.
Just as Lin Yuan said, if the main world’s federations were enabled to trade using the boats, there would be no more separation within the main world, and the human federations would not be prevented from interacting with each other because of geographical constraints.
Humans never stopped gaining new desires.
The weaker federations would definitely choose to ally with larger federations in the hope of improving their development. But if they were able to interact culturally and had the financial means, despite the presence of the Major Federation Union, to keep violence from breaking out, the smaller federations would definitely form ambitions to overthrow the larger federations.
These were all factors of unease and instability.
Wen Yu felt that she needed to tell Lin Yuan about these destabilizing factors since she had thought of them.
Lin Yuan was not at all surprised by the message that Wen Yu sent him. Given her intelligence, she was fully capable of thinking to such an extent. However, this was still far from sufficient!
Lin Yuan had utilized the Lifespan Mouse, allowing numerous experts with endless lifespans to emerge. However, as Lin Yuan ventured into the Sky Beyond the Clouds and time progressed, the prevailing tranquility in the main world was not sustainable.
This remained true despite the efforts of the Major Federation Union to maintain peace. It wasn’t a lack of trust in the Moon Empress’ preparations, management, or the Major Federation Union’s control over the main world.
The reason lay in the fusion of the main world with the five dimensional worlds. Over time, Lin Yuan’s influence over dimensional lifeforms would diminish, and the treasures from the five dimensional worlds would lose their efficacy. Consequently, the new dimensional lifeforms operated beyond Lin Yuan’s control.
In the past, there was only source-type and faith power in the dimensional worlds. But after being nourished by the spirit qi from the main world, the new dimensional lifeforms would acquire spirit qi as their energy source.
In terms of potential, the new dimensional lifeforms undoubtedly had more!
These new dimensional lifeforms would slowly replace the old dimensional lifeforms.
Those that were superior would eliminate those that were inferior. Only the strong would survive. This was the underlying principle of this world, and it applied to the sea clans as well!
The collaboration between the sea clans and humans would last for at least the next few hundreds or even thousands of years.
However, after tens of thousands of years had passed, the sea clans and humans would resume their fighting and disputes.
The human factions were not the only ones who needed the resources that were traded through sea trade. The sea clans needed them as well. The strong sea clans that were not restrained would definitely attack the humans over the resources.
This was only something that Lin Yuan came to understand after reaching a certain level. He felt that he needed to find an opportunity to break down and explain this matter to Wen Yu as it would be extremely beneficial for her critical thinking and broadening her horizons!
Once he had expanded her mindset, Wen Yu would be able to analyze issues with a wider and more objective mindset. Naturally, this would lead her thinking skills to improve exponentially!
[Lin Yuan]: Wen Yu, we still need to continue doing everything we can to support Wo Lun. Additionally, tell Wo Lun to take in more disciples and pass on his skills just like Uncle Hu did. Wo Lun comes from the Violent Wind Federation. There should be a fair number of people from there who are capable of building boats. We can use the Radiance Federation’s name to recruit and hire adventurers from the Violent Wind Federation who are capable of building boats!
There were many aspects of Wo Lun, and his boat-building skills were not something Wen Yu understood.
But since Lin Yuan had given the order to fully support Wo Lun, it went without saying that Wen Yu would follow Lin Yuan’s instructions to the tee.
After asking the question that he most wanted an answer to, Lin Yuan sent another message.
[Lin Yuan]: I previously asked you to collect and gather information on the five dimensional worlds. How is that going? Have the root energy of the new dimensional lifeforms shown signs of shifting?
Had Lin Yuan not asked about Wo Lun first, she would have reported the circumstances of the five dimensional worlds to him first.
[Wen Yu]: Young Master, we have underestimated the pace of change in the dimensional worlds. Currently, numerous descendants of lifeforms from the abyssal, water, alien insect world, and even the previously averse to spirit qi marsh world, are exhibiting a surprising sensitivity to spirit qi. What’s more, many of these mutations are hereditary, passing down through generations. This development has sparked intense debates in the dimensional worlds.
[Wen Yu]: Numerous Apostles and Dictators view these newly emerged lifeforms, possessing spirit qi, as anomalies and potential energy sources. Up to now, I have merely observed and documented the unfolding situation, refraining from any interference. I am awaiting your guidance on the appropriate course of action.
Lin Yuan paused for a moment before he responded.
[Lin Yuan]: This is a necessary stage that needs to take place after the fusion of the dimensional worlds and the main world. If we issue an order to Samsara Realm Dictators to forbid the other Dictators and Apostles from laying a hand on the new lifeforms with spirit qi as their root energy, the destabilizing elements will build up in a short span regardless of whether the Samsara Realm Dictators obediently carry out the order.
[Lin Yuan]: As opposed to that, we should allow the five dimensional worlds to go through the changes naturally. After all, the lifeforms with spirit qi as their root energy will eventually increase in number, and there will definitely be a change of hands in the yoke of authority!
Wen Yu knew that Lin Yuan wanted to improve the unity between the main world and dimensional worlds. The best way to do this would be to increase the number of dimensional lifeforms that had spirit qi as their energy source.
Wen Yu had been with Lin Yuan for a long time and was used to taking a judicial and administrative mindset when she analyzed issues.
Now, Lin Yuan was showing her an indirect way of examining issues.
After mulling over it, Wen Yu realized that this way of thinking could indeed unite the main world and dimensional worlds in a stable manner.
However, it would take considerable time for everything to play out naturally.
Natural development was always the best choice.
At that moment, Wen Yu felt that she could understand why Lin Yuan wanted to wholeheartedly support Wo Lun and the building of boats. He must have already predicted the extent of the main world’s derivation and the impacts that would unfold in the main world’s future!
Lin Yuan was already Wen Yu’s role model, and she had learned most of her methods from him.
But she never expected that even now, there was still so much that she did not understand about him.
She had only picked up one way in which he viewed issues.
[Wen Yu]: Young Master, Bai Qinghuan supervised the construction of the dimensional wall that separates the main world from the dimensional worlds and which prevents the invasion of the dimensional worlds into the main world. When creating this wall, she did not anticipate the dimensional lifeforms to slam into the dimensional wall so relentlessly. Several parts of the wall are showing signs of damage and need to be fixed by the Land Imps! Bai Qinghuan asked me to seek your opinion on this!
After Bai Qinghuan was done supervising the building of the Radiance Federation’s defenses, Lin Yuan placed her at the boundary between the main world and dimensional worlds.
The dimensional wall was the biggest project undertaken by Bai Qinghuan to date. She was well aware of the labor and effort that had gone into the project.
But now, so soon after its completion, the dimensional wall was showing signs of damage.
It would be fine if the dimensional wall was damaged as a result of the dead spirits crisis, but the truth was that it was damaged by the dimensional lifeforms.
Because of this, Bai Qinghuan could not explain herself to Lin Yuan. She did not even dare to report the matter to Lin Yuan herself and sought help from Wen Yu.
Bai Qinghuan never believed herself to be important to Lin Yuan, especially after she saw how many capable people Lin Yuan had in his orbit. Wen Yu, Liu Jie, Su Yiren, Listen, Qin Yu, and Hu Quan were all gifted individuals!
She could indeed be of great help when it came to battle coordination.
But after the dead spirits crisis ended, the main world entered a period of prolonged peace, and Bai Qinghuan’s abilities were no longer applicable.
As someone who lacked a sense of security, Bai Qinghuan was the most afraid of not being needed.
Recently, she had been in a state of constant nervousness.
Wen Yu had been observing all of Bai Qinghuan’s behavior. However, she had not said anything to Bai Qinghuan because she was Lin Yuan’s assistant and could not direct him toward any decisions.
Moreover, during the time that Lin Yuan had relied heavily on her, she had been arrogant and conceited.
This change in Bai Qinghuan greatly displeased Wen Yu.
Wen Yu guessed that Lin Yuan would not put Bai Qinghuan on the spot.
The dimensional wall had been built with the intention of defending against the dead spirits and not the dimensional lifeforms.
Lin Yuan wanted to unite the main world and dimensional worlds.
The dimensional wall would either be changed or deconstructed so the spiritual materials could be repurposed into other infrastructure projects.
With a large number of Land Imps, repurposing the dimensional wall would not come at a high cost.
If Lin Yuan was willing to divert 200,000,000 Land Imps to this endeavor, they would be able to deconstruct the dimensional wall in a little over 20 days!
It would take the Land Imps much less time to deconstruct the base than it had taken them to build it.
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.
He pondered over the matter and guessed that new dimensional lifeforms were the culprits that damaged the dimensional wall. The dimensional lifeforms that were fully under his control would never do such a thing!
If even Wen Yu could guess what Bai Qinghuan was thinking, it went without saying that Lin Yuan could do the same.
Lin Yuan had heard from Return to Ruins about Bai Qinghuan’s behavior during the building of the bases that linked the dimensional worlds and main world.
Return to Ruins found Bai Qinghuan’s demeanor to be over the line.
Otherwise, Return to Ruins would never have brought up this matter to Lin Yuan with the insinuation of complaining about Bai Qinghuan when he knew that she was his subordinate!
In her pursuit of quick progress, Bai Qinghuan had even eliminated several Land Imps that were moving too slowly.
Bai Qinghuan was a native of the Divine Wood Federation and was influenced by its culture. Hence, she carried the aristocratic degeneration as a member of the Divine Wood Federation’s elite.
Lin Yuan believed that he could use this opportunity to get Bai Qinghuan back on the right track.
[Lin Yuan]: Wen Yu, I intend on taking Bai Qinghuan to the Sky Beyond the Clouds. With her ambition, it is not suitable for her to remain in the main world. Her abilities will come in handy there. But I intend on placing her under you in the future. You can handle this matter!
Lin Yuan never needed to be overly explicit when he spoke to Wen Yu. She was always able to understand his meaning.
After reading the Thoughts Letter Paper, Wen Yu paused before she responded.
[Wen Yu]: Bai Qinghuan isn’t to blame for this matter. However, with the matter of the dimensional wall, it won’t be appropriate for her to lead the team of Land Imps that deconstruct the dimensional wall. Return to Ruins is free. Why don’t we send him to lead the team while Bai Qinghuan supports him? Once Bai Qinghuan returns, I am sure that she will obediently work under me!
When Lin Yuan saw the message from Wen Yu, he could not help but sigh to himself.
Wen Yu had managed many matters and was now familiar with the procedures.
Return to Ruins had pent-up rage against Bai Qinghuan. When he worked under her, he had not been able to protect the Land Imps under him, and she had not extended any courtesies to him.
Now that Return to Ruins was the one leading the team, it went without saying he would vent all his anger.
During this assignment, Bai Qinghuan would understand that every dog had its day.
In the future, she would be more restrained in her actions.
Return to Ruins had reached the Afterlife Realm and was the strongest of the three Dictators from the subterranean world.
It was also necessary to bear with his way of doing things.
The Land Imps were selfish, shallow, and petty.
If Return to Ruins had to continue suppressing his rage, it would inevitably lead to bumps in the road in the future.
