Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 580

The red-clothed girl looked at Lin Yuan, countless thoughts in her heart, but in the end, she swallowed them all.

“You’re doing great.”

She spoke honestly.

So great, in fact, that she couldn’t find a single flaw.

“That’s good, then.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

At least for now, everything in his cultivation of Infinite Void’s second layer was on track.

“If you want a way to measure the progress of your internal universe, Master,” the red-clothed girl said.

“There is one method.”

Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up.

Whether it was the first layer of Infinite Void, the second, or even the third and fourth that came after—

The essence of the technique was to deconstruct the foundational particles of the internal universe and recombine them in a more refined, even perfect, structure.

That was why he had needed to comprehend over three thousand cosmic construction methods during the Jade Gourd trial.

The true purpose of Infinite Void was to replace the fundamental framework of one’s internal universe.

To ensure stability, this recombination of microscopic particles had to be done gradually, step by step.

Which meant—

Even as Lin Yuan cultivated the second layer, he had no clear benchmark for exactly how far along he was.

All he could perceive was that his internal universe was becoming more stable, its foundation increasingly solid—

Until eventually, it would undergo a complete transformation.

“Please take a look, Master.”

The red-clothed girl flipped her hand, and a chunk of metal about a few meters across flew out from the Jade Gourd.

The surface of the metal was a deep golden hue, faintly radiating an aura of indestructibility.

“This is Immortal Essence Gold,” the girl explained simply.

“A rare material, its sole defining trait is that it’s unbelievably hard—nearly impossible to destroy.”

“Immortal Essence Gold?”

Lin Yuan carefully examined the nearby piece of dark-gold metal.

He had never heard of it before—but if the red-clothed girl brought it out, it had to come from the founder of the Infinite Void legacy.

That he hadn’t heard of it was only natural.

“With the current foundation of your internal universe, if you fully unleash your cosmic power and suppress this Immortal Essence Gold—if you can leave a mark half a meter deep on its surface, it means you’re close to mastering the second layer.”

“At that point, your internal universe would be among the strongest below the perfected Chaos level.”

This benchmark was tailored specifically by the red-clothed girl based on the overwhelming depth of Lin Yuan’s internal universe.

His internal universe far exceeded that of a typical Infinite Void cultivator.

She had noticed this the moment she entered.

Normally, even with the refining of the seven liquids before the Jade Gourd and multiple infusions of Chaos Void origin power, one wouldn’t possess such a vast internal universe upon first entering the twelfth rank.

“Only half a meter?”

Lin Yuan stared at the Immortal Essence Gold.

After stepping into the Dominance stage and spending so much time cultivating Infinite Void—

His internal universe had grown immensely.

A Venerable like Ninefold, if trapped inside, would be crushed to dust within a single breath.

Back when Lin Yuan was below the Dominance level, Ninefold Venerable had endured even his “World” body art without self-destructing. Now, that would be impossible.

At this stage, even a peak Chaos-level being would struggle to withstand an internal universe self-destruction strike from Lin Yuan.

And yet—

He only needed to leave a half-meter mark on this metal?

“I’ll try.”

Lin Yuan focused his will.

In an instant, his internal universe surged with endless origin power. Around the dark-gold metal, time and space began to distort and collapse.

Buzz!

A depression gradually appeared on the surface of the Immortal Essence Gold—eventually forming a groove about ten centimeters deep.

“Hmm?”

Lin Yuan continued exerting pressure, but found that further results were extremely difficult—he couldn’t leave a deeper mark.

“Immortal Essence Gold becomes harder the deeper you go,” the red-clothed girl said beside him.

“For you to make a ten-centimeter mark is already quite impressive.”

She truly meant it.

Most who had only completed the first layer of Infinite Void couldn’t even leave a single centimeter.

And Lin Yuan had only been cultivating the second layer for a short time.

“Right now, Master, your internal universe is stronger than nearly any lifeform’s below the perfected Chaos level—including those so-called wonder-born beings.”

She explained.

Perfected Chaos—the realm of the Great Saint. It’s a stage of transformation, where all aspects surge in power, including the internal universe.

“Yeah.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

Still, he felt a tinge of regret.

If the half-meter mark was the benchmark for the strongest internal universe below Chaos perfection—

Then he still had some distance to go.

“Back to cultivation!”

Lin Yuan’s true body resumed training the second layer of Infinite Void.

In the Source World—

On the core frontline of the war.

Inside an Alpha War Machine—

One of Lin Yuan’s avatars sat in meditation.

“The more I study, the more insignificant I feel.”

He opened his eyes, filled with awe.

The Chaos rune patterns within the war machine only reflected part of the true Chaos laws. Even the Alpha models only contained fragments—albeit far more complete than those in Beta or Gamma.

“Above Alpha War Machines… do their rune patterns contain the complete structure of Chaos laws?”

Lin Yuan wondered.

Machines beyond Alpha could house multiple Great Sovereigns and perfectly fuse their Chaos-evolved powers.

But powers derived from Chaos laws were all unique. Every Great Sovereign’s Chaos evolution differed—even if they all used Chaos Flame, the variations were infinite.

To merge all that power?

Utterly inconceivable.

“If I could study the rune patterns of a machine beyond Alpha, my comprehension of Chaos…”

Lin Yuan shook his head. He knew that was wishful thinking.

Such war machines only appeared in full-scale war between the two ancient kingdoms.

At that scale, Heavenly Sovereigns would be involved, and even the Emperors of the ancient kingdoms would oversee the battles. To study one of those? He’d need their direct permission.

“Still, I can already replicate these rune patterns in the Chaos Void. With enough materials, I can recreate a full war machine there.”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Chisong King had assumed it would be difficult for Lin Yuan to understand even a Gamma machine’s rune patterns.

But by now, Lin Yuan had fully comprehended the patterns of eighty to a hundred different war machines.

He had basically mastered the Chaos rune patterns of most Gamma machines.

Of course, he wasn’t about to make this public.

“Hm?”

Just as he was preparing to continue his studies, Lin Yuan felt a sudden ripple.

“I’ve fully comprehended the divine mark of Sunborn Genesis?”

A smile spread across his face.

The seventh body divine technique, Sunborn Genesis, was undoubtedly the strongest of all he had awakened.

To use it within the Chaos Void, Lin Yuan had focused most of his energy on it.

Even while studying the incredibly beneficial Chaos rune patterns, he hadn’t gone all out—saving most of his effort for this divine art.

Sunborn Genesis…

Now he could rest easy. Before fully understanding this divine art, he had feared dying in the Source World before transferring it to the Chaos Void.

In the Chaos Void—

Lin Yuan was cultivating the second layer of Infinite Void.

“Hm?”

He opened his eyes. Before him, strands of power wove together to form a tremendously intricate, mysterious divine mark.

“So this is the mark of Sunborn Genesis?”

He was delighted.

Now that he had comprehended the imprint, this divine art could be shared across all his true selves.

“Let’s test if it can merge with the internal universe.”

Lin Yuan began experimenting immediately.

He’d had this idea long ago—but without understanding the divine mark, he couldn’t recreate the art, so it was just theory.

Now that he had it—

He could finally test his theory.

“I’ll start with an avatar.”

He didn’t try it in his true body’s internal universe—any mishap there would be a huge loss, even with life-saving means.

But an avatar? Much safer.

Buzz—

With a thought, an avatar formed before him.

Its internal universe began developing.

Compared to his true body or the two Primordial Spirits, the avatar’s internal universe was only at the peak of Dominance.

Crash…

Inside that universe, Lin Yuan summoned the Sunborn Genesis divine art and began forming the Sunborn Core, casting sunlight across the cosmos.

In the next moment—

Under the all-pervading sunlight, the avatar’s internal universe began to collapse and disintegrate.

“It can’t withstand the Sunborn Core?”

Lin Yuan immediately understood—the avatar’s universe was simply too weak.

“Let’s try it in one of the Primordial Spirits.”

His two Primordial Spirits had also cultivated Infinite Void—though not infused with Chaos origin as much as the true body, their universes were still far stronger than most Chaos Sovereigns.

“Let’s try.”

“Even if it collapses, it won’t be a huge loss.”

Lin Yuan sent a wisp of consciousness into the internal universe of the Yin Primordial Spirit.

Sunborn Genesis—form!

Instantly, a spark ignited and began to spread, the light claiming all it touched.

Rumble—

As the Sunborn Core began shaping heaven and earth—

Lin Yuan’s pupils contracted slightly as he watched.
