Alice's voice suddenly rang out in the cabin: [Monster core frequency detected to be consistent with the Ark's Super Dragon Ball reactor. Resonance destruction attempt possible!] She brought up two sets of wave patterns; the red core frequency and the blue reactor frequency were slowly converging. "Continuous input of energy at the same frequency is needed to guide resonance!"
Lin Ye's eyes lit up, and he quickly brought up the control interface of the energy reactor: "Vegeta, Cabba, attack the core with all your might! Don't worry about the damage, just keep the energy output frequency stable!"
"Ha! Finally, a decent command!" Vegeta's golden aura surged. "Watch this!" He crossed his arms into a cross, and the Ultimate Flash, thicker than ever before, erupted once again, this time with a stable pulse of energy.
Gabe took a deep breath, and blue energy condensed into a spiral shape in his palm: "Leave it to me!"
The green Special Beam Cannon merged with two streams of energy into a thick beam of light, striking the monster's core precisely. The red core trembled violently, and the Saiyan face on its surface emitted a painful roar.
"Now!" Lin Ye's Complete Freedom Ultra Instinct form reached its peak, and the pure white flames and the light of the Super Dragon Ball merged into a giant energy ball in his palm. "This attack is for all the imprisoned Saiyans!"
"Ultimate Freedom? Dimensional Explosion!"
The moment the energy ball struck the core, the entire dimensional rift trembled violently. Silver light spread like a tide, and the monster's body disintegrated inch by inch within the light. The imprisoned Saiyan faces turned into specks of starlight, flying towards Universe 12.
Lin Ye saw the silver-haired Saiyan phantom nod to him in the light, its lips slightly moving as if it said something, before it vanished into the chaos.
“He said… ‘You’ve worked hard, heir.’” Alice’s voice carried a subtle, almost imperceptible fluctuation. “The mental residue from earlier has been translated.”
As the exploration vessel emerged from the rift, Gabe suddenly pointed out the window and exclaimed, "Look!"
At the edge of the 12 universes, the once menacing red rift is slowly healing, replaced by a silver band of light, like a dazzling necklace connecting each universe. A system notification sounds at the opportune moment: [Dimensional barrier repaired 17%, triggering the hidden quest "Rebuilding Dimensional Order"].
Lin Ye stared at the band of light, his fingertips unconsciously tracing the porthole: "Perhaps... the ancient Saiyans were the guardians of the dimensions." On his system panel, the progress bar for "Dimensional Dominator" quietly jumped to 1%.
When they returned to the "Ark" command center, their father was squatting on the ground adjusting the chaos detector. The green crystal hummed rhythmically as he adjusted it: "Xiao Ye, come and see. This thing can store trace amounts of chaotic energy. Maybe it can be used to strengthen your Qi."
The mother carefully poured the silver liquid she had brought back from the crevice into a glass bottle, the label of which read in a crooked hand, "Xiao Ye's new energy sample, store with care." When she saw Lin Ye come in, she immediately brought out a bowl of hot soup: "Drink it while it's hot, I made it with fairy beans, it'll nourish your body."
Vegeta and Gabe started arguing again in front of the training pod.
"Your basic movements are still too rough!" Vegeta crossed his arms and frowned. "Starting tomorrow, add 300 sets of weighted sprints!"
"Why am I always the one getting extra training?" Gabe retorted defiantly. "I clearly won the last simulation battle!"
"That's because I let you win!"
"You're just scared!"
The two argued until their faces turned red, but they both couldn't hide the smiles on their lips.
Lin Ye clenched his fist, feeling the dimensional energy slowly flowing through his body. He knew that the appearance of the Ordered Chaos was just the beginning, and the true battle for dimensional dominance was about to begin. But this time, he was no longer fighting alone; he had comrades-in-arms, family who cared for him, and allies spanning 12 universes.
On the holographic star map, the silver band of light is gradually widening, like a nascent hope shining in the deep universe.
In a corner of the command center, Alice's projection watched Lin Ye's retreating figure, her fingertips lightly tracing the hidden data stream. There, a line of text, unnoticed by anyone, was displayed: [Guardian Gene Activation: 11%, Warning: Chaos Core Still Escaping].
Chapter 351: The Legacy of the Dimensional Guardian
In the central plaza of the "Ark" space station, a hovering crane was embedding the final silver metal plate into the statue's base. Sunlight streamed through the energy dome, refracting a flowing luster on the metal surface. The statue depicted the moment when Lin Ye, Vegeta, and Cabba combined their power to bombard the Lawful Chaos. The three's auras intertwined at the top, forming a silver band of light. The words "Saiyan Alliance - Dimensional Guardians" on the base were polished to an exceptionally dazzling shine.
"Xiao Ye, come and take a look!" Lin's father waved and shouted at him, holding up the Chaos Detector and circling the statue. The green crystal emitted a cheerful hum. "The chaotic energy in this metal is very stable. Maybe it can be used to strengthen the space station's shield!"
Lin's mother was distributing packets of Senzu Beans to the Namekian children who had gathered around. The children held the beans and smiled so hard their eyes narrowed into slits. She turned and glared at Lin's father: "Don't wave your broken instrument around like that, you might scare the children." Then she turned to Lin Ye and said softly, "The statue is really lifelike, especially your expression when you exert your strength, it's exactly the same as when you fought Chronos last time."
Lin Ye walked over with a smile, and just as he was about to speak, the system suddenly popped up a notification: [Family Affection Adaptability 89%, unlocked Family Bond Passive Skill: Teammate Damage Reduction 10%, Energy Recovery Speed Increased by 5%].
"This skill came at just the right time." He was secretly pleased, his fingertips unconsciously rubbing the storage pouch at his waist, where the Senzu Beans his mother had stuffed inside were still warm.
"Lord Lin Ye!" A series of hurried footsteps approached from afar. Gabe rushed over, carrying a leather scroll. The collar of his blue Saiyan suit was dusty, and sweat was beading on his forehead. "Look what I found!" He spread the scroll on the floating table in the plaza. "These are fragments of relics brought back from a dimensional rift. When I was sorting them out just now, I found some writing on them... I recognize a few!"
The symbols on the scroll were dark red, and their serpentine patterns did resemble the bloodline markings on a Saiyan's arm, but were more ancient and complex, with traces of burning still visible on the edges. The moment Lin Ye reached out and touched the symbols, the scroll suddenly emitted a silver light, and the symbols floated up from the paper, forming a three-dimensional star map in the air. The locations of the twelve universes were clearly marked, each with a silver dot of light next to it, with the dot of light for the seventh universe flickering on and off.
“This is…” Vegeta appeared beside him at some point. He crossed his arms and leaned closer to the star map, his brows slowly relaxing from a furrowed brow. “A distribution map of the dimensional guardians?” He pointed to the light spot in Universe 7 with his finger. “It seems that our ancestors were the guardians of Universe 7.”
“But what do these points of light mean?” Gabe tilted his head back, trying to count the number of points of light. “Does every universe have a guardian?”
Before Lin Ye could respond, the system suddenly erupted with a blinding golden light: [Trial of the Inheritance Quest: Dimensional Guardian, Reward: Complete Unlocking of Ancient Saiyan Bloodline]. Countless pieces of information flooded his mind like a tidal wave: the operating rules of dimensional laws, the origin and characteristics of chaotic energy, and a name echoing deep within his consciousness: "Yamushi."
“Yamos…” Lin Ye murmured, his gaze fixed on the center of the star map, where the point of light was brighter than anywhere else. “The first Super Saiyan?” He recalled the legend of the warrior in Dragon Ball who rebelled against tyranny for his people, whose spiritual energy after death was said to have transformed into the Super Saiyan. “Could he be more than just the origin of the Super Saiyan…”
"What are you guys talking about that's fun?" Two childish voices suddenly rang out, and a golden portal opened out of thin air in the center of the square. The Omni-King, wearing the same hoodie, hopped out, followed by the Grand Priest with a serious expression. "Lin Ye, Lin Ye, we need your help!"
The council chamber of the Royal Palace was a hundred times more lively than when Lin Ye last visited. The twelve Gods of Destruction sat around a round stone table. Champa, usually noisy, was holding a pink drink, but his eyes were fixed on the crystal ball in the center. Beerus, on the other hand, was lying on the table, his tail idly sweeping the floor, unusually not arguing with Champa.
"Look at this." The High Priest gestured, and the scene at the edge of the 12 universes immediately appeared in the crystal ball. The silver light band was expanding at a visible speed, and hideous black shadows flashed by from time to time in the originally pure light. Where those shadows passed, the stars were withering rapidly. "Lawful chaos is just the vanguard." His voice echoed in the empty hall. "The real threat is the 'original chaos' beyond the dimensions."
The crystal ball suddenly switched its view, displaying a space entirely composed of chaotic energy, with an indescribable black shadow floating in the center, and countless tiny tentacles constantly striking the transparent sealing barrier.
“This thing has been sealed by Yamoshi for billions of years.” The high priest’s tone became more serious. “The death of Kronos has disrupted the energy balance, and now the seal is loosening.”
[The system notification suddenly popped up: "Energy characteristics of the Chaos Origin have been detected, which have a restraining relationship with the host's ancient Saiyan bloodline." A flash of inspiration struck Lin Ye: Yamoshi created the Super Saiyan not to resist tyranny, but to fight against the Chaos Origin!]
“Only by fully unlocking the ancient Saiyan bloodline can the origin of chaos be resealed.” The High Priest pointed to a secret realm in the corner of the crystal ball, where a floating temple could be vaguely seen. “Yamos’s legacy is hidden there, but one must pass the trials of the 12 Gods of Destruction to enter.”
“My trial is the simplest.” Beerus was the first to stand up, purple flames swirling around him. “Just withstand three of my moves without being defeated. If you don’t even have that much skill, you shouldn’t bother with any inheritance.”
"Hmph, you dare call those three moves a trial?" Xiangpa slammed down her cup, spilling a few drops of pink liquid. "My trial is the hardest; you have to defeat me in the culinary competition!"
"Hey, fat cat, what do you mean?!" Beerus immediately bristled.
"It means exactly what it says, skinny monkey!"
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, the High Priest coughed lightly: "Please, all Gods of Destruction, present the contents of your respective trials."
Lin Ye looked at the eager light in the eyes of the 12 Gods of Destruction and suddenly smiled: "I accept the trial." He paused, his gaze sweeping over Vegeta and Cabba behind him, "But I have one condition: you must bring your Saiyan Alliance partners."
"Great! Great!" Zeno clapped his hands, his golden eyes crinkling into crescents with laughter. "The more people, the more lively it will be! I want to eat the pastries made by the elephant handkerchief!"
The trial took place in an alternate dimension created by the Omni-King. Beerus's trial ground was a floating belt of gravel. He went all out from the start, his first attack, "Destruction Impact," carrying purple energy, hurtling towards Lin Ye. However, it dissipated the moment it touched the pure white flames. In his state of complete freedom and ultimate mastery, Lin Ye not only blocked the attack but also managed to avoid harming a single pebble in the gravel belt.
“You’ve made some progress.” Beerus turned his face away, but his tail quietly wagged.
Champa's culinary competition was nothing short of a disaster. The God of Destruction from Universe 6 personally cooked, producing a culinary abomination that emitted green smoke, causing the Omni-King to hide behind the High Priest in fear. Lin Ye slightly modified his mother's braised pork recipe, using Saiyan aura to control the heat, and the aroma of the stew filled the entire alternate dimension. Champa, holding his bowl, muttered, "It's only slightly worse than mine," while devouring three bowls of rice.
The most difficult trial is the one in Universe Eleven. Jiren stood in the endless void, his aura even more unfathomable than during the last martial arts tournament: "My trial is to show you what true power is."
Their fists collided in mid-air, without a deafening explosion, only the shrill sound of energy waves tearing through space and time. Jiren's every punch contained "infinite fighting spirit," seemingly inexhaustible; Lin Ye, on the other hand, constantly switched between Ultra Instinct and Saiyan bloodline, ultimately using the "Space-Time Collapse Fist" to draw Jiren's energy towards himself, and then instantly rebound it. This was not a victory, but an understanding.
"You've passed." Jiren withdrew his fist, revealing a look of approval in his eyes for the first time.
As Lin Ye passed the trial of the last God of Destruction, the entire alternate dimension suddenly lit up with silver light. [Ancient Saiyan bloodline fully unlocked, skill Yamoshi's Will gained] The system notification sounded, and at the same time, his hair turned pure silver, with golden Saiyan patterns flowing through his strands, and flames identical to those in Yamoshi's phantom burned in his pupils.
Yamoshi's figure slowly emerged behind him, his long silver hair fluttering in the wind: "Well done, successor." His voice resounded throughout the entire alternate dimension, "Now, go and reclaim the glory that belongs to the Saiyans, and protect this dimension."
When Lin Ye returned to the Royal Palace, all twelve Gods of Destruction bowed simultaneously, the highest form of respect for the Dimensional Guardian. The High Priest handed him a sword made of light, its blade flowing with the same silver light as Lin Ye's hair: "This is the 'Dimensional Holy Sword,' capable of temporarily sealing the origin of chaos."
[Main Quest Progress 50%, Final Battle Imminent]
Lin Ye gripped the holy sword tightly, the hilt radiating a warm sensation, as if resonating with his bloodline. Inside the crystal ball, the tentacles of the primordial chaos had pierced through three layers of seals, and black energy began to erode the surrounding dimensions.
On the observation deck of the "Ark", Bulma's mother was holding up a communicator and teaching her how to make braised pork: "Yes, you have to use a clay pot to stew it, and the heat can't be too high... Vegeta loved to eat this when he was little, and he could eat two big bowls every time."
The father and Vegeta's father stood to the side, the two middle-aged men huddled together discussing tactics: "Your kid is just too competitive. Next time you train, have Lin Ye give him a good talking-to."
"Hmph, it's still better than your son being too soft-hearted." Vegeta's father said sarcastically, but a smile played on his lips.
Gabe leaned on the railing, his tablet displaying a list of new members of the Saiyan Alliance. The names of Saiyans from Universe 12 filled several pages. He drew stars next to the names "Caulifla" and "Kale" and muttered to himself, "Once we solve the Chaos Origin problem, I'm definitely going to have a good match with everyone from Universe 6."
Lin Ye walked to the edge of the observation deck, silver flames slowly swirling around him, and golden Saiyan markings seemed to come alive as they danced across his skin. He gazed towards the direction of Universe 12, where the silver light bands had already spread to the core of each universe.
Suddenly, the Dimensional Holy Sword trembled slightly, and the blade reflected a phantom image in the sunlight, a fleeting glimpse of Yamoshi's profile, as if to say, "Are you ready?"
Lin Ye gripped the sword hilt tightly, his fingertips turning slightly white from the force. He knew that the moment the Chaos Origin completely broke free of its seal would be the moment when all the dimensional guardians would fight side by side. And this time, they would not only protect the 12 universes, but also reclaim the legacy and glory that belonged to the Saiyans.
In the distant starry sky, a previously stable star suddenly flickered, and black patterns, identical to those of the origin of chaos, appeared on its surface.
The battle has quietly begun.
Chapter 352: The Awakening of the Primordial Chaos
A silver band of light flickered wildly at the edge of the 12th universe, like a lit fuse, each flash causing the surrounding stars to tremble. Lin Ye stood on the observation platform of the Ark space station, his knuckles white from the force of his grip. The enormous black shadow that had emerged in the center of the light band finally took full shape. It was a giant eye pieced together from countless galactic remnants, its pupils containing bottomless vortexes that swallowed up even light in their wake.
There are 72 hours left. Alice's holographic projection floats beside her, data flowing rapidly around her. The seal on the origin of chaos has broken through the last line of defense. At this rate, the spacetime structure of the 12 universes will completely collapse after it awakens.
Lin Ye looked up at the giant eye. The thing seemed to sense his gaze, and the vortex suddenly accelerated its rotation. A silver lightning bolt struck along the band of light, creating ripples on the Ark's energy shield.
"Perfect timing." Vegeta's voice came from behind me. He cracked his knuckles, deep blue flames swirling around him, saving me the trouble of searching for it.
Prince Vegeta is still as energetic as ever! Cabba clenched his fist, and golden flames erupted in response. "Our Saiyan Alliance is ready! Saiyans from all 12 universes are on standby!"
Number 18 leaned against the railing of the observation platform, adjusting the energy readings of her prosthetic eye: "Klin and I have checked all the defensive weapons; they should last at least until you unleash your ultimate attack." She glanced at the screen, but didn't expect it to last much longer; the thing's energy level had already exceeded the instrument's detection limit.
Piccolo clasped his hands together, a green magic circle slowly rotating in his palms: "I contacted the Grand Elder of Namek; they're willing to provide mental support." He opened his eyes, but the chaotic energy would corrupt the mental link, posing a significant risk.
Lin Ye's system panel suddenly lit up: [Dimensional Domination progress 70%, it is recommended to form a universe-wide alliance, and the power of 12 universes can greatly increase the success rate of sealing].
Notify all universes. Lin Ye turned and walked towards the control panel, silver flames exploding behind him, transforming into a signal that spanned the 12 universes, calling for an emergency meeting. Whether they are gods of destruction or mortals, as long as they are willing to fight, they are our allies.
An unprecedented scene was unfolding in the council chamber of the royal palace.
Lin Ye! You've finally arrived! Goku rushed over excitedly, his tail swishing happily behind him. "I just had a match with Caulifla, and she's improved incredibly fast!"
Caulifla crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow: "Next time I'll show you something even better." Kale nodded vigorously behind her, still clutching half an energy cookie in her hand.
"Hmph, a bunch of idiots." Vegeta snorted, but instinctively stood next to Goku. His gaze swept across the entire area. "Frieza's here too?"
Are you Saiyans the only ones allowed to steal the spotlight? Frieza hovered in mid-air, his golden form so dazzling it was blinding. This tedious, universe-destroying spectacle was better off ending sooner rather than later. He glanced at Lin Ye; of course, it wouldn't be bad to see some people make fools of themselves while he was at it.
"You're asking for it!" Vegeta's arrogance surged instantly.
"Alright, alright," Wukong quickly smoothed things over, "everyone's here to help."
Lin Ye's parents were squeezed in the crowd. His mother was distributing packets of Senzu Bean bento boxes to the warriors around her, and even the Gods of Destruction received one. When she handed the bento to Frieza, the Emperor of the Universe's expression froze for a moment. He awkwardly twirled the pink bento box between his fingers and said, "You do have some taste."
Silence. The High Priest's voice rang out, and the council chamber fell silent instantly. He pointed to the central crystal sphere, within which the colossal eye of the Chaos Origin slowly rotated. The core of the Chaos Origin was at the center of the silver light band; it could devour all energy, but it had a weakness.
Countless points of light suddenly appeared inside the crystal ball. These points of light collided and merged, forming a warm glow: emotional energy. Love, courage, friendship... these forces that it could not comprehend could cause it substantial harm.
Emotional energy? Goku scratched his head, then his eyes lit up. That's the Spirit Bomb!
Lin Ye's system simultaneously popped up a notification: [The emotional energy of all alliance members has resonated and can be merged into a universe-wide energy bomb. The energy intensity increases with the number of participants.]
That's right. Lin Ye looked at Wukong, "I need you to use the Spirit Bomb to collect the emotional energy of the entire universe. I will use the Dimensional Holy Sword to tear through its defenses." He raised the lightsaber in his hand, its blade flowing with silver patterns. "We need to cooperate."
"Leave it to me!" Goku patted his chest, beaming. "Collecting Spirit Bombs is my forte!"
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
At the center of the silver band of light, the defensive line composed of countless warships was collapsing. The chaotic rays shot from the giant eye of the origin of chaos were like the scythe of death, turning warships and their warriors into nothingness wherever they passed.
"Now!" Lin Ye's voice rang out in the communicators of all the alliance members. His Complete Ultra Instinct form was completely fused with the ancient Saiyan bloodline. Golden Saiyan patterns flowed in the silver flames. The Dimensional Sword hummed in his hand. "Everyone, cover Goku!"
"Don't even think about it!" The voice of the Chaos Origin was like the friction of countless metals. The giant eye suddenly contracted, and countless tentacles made of galactic debris emerged from the band of light, lashing out towards Wukong.
