Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 636

"This strike?" Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame's expression turned serious. As an observer, though he hadn't directly faced the might of Lin Yuan's spatial-temporal blade, he could feel its power. Just one spatial-temporal blade had caused Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian some injury.

Now, with three hundred and thirty-three blades striking simultaneously, Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian would likely need to unleash his true techniques to resist.

"Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way is also not weak in terms of rule comprehension," Heavenly Sovereign Eternal Sun concluded. Spatial-temporal comprehension at the ninth stage was common among Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns, but for an imperial family member who only knew how to excavate bloodlines?

That was already exceptionally exaggerated. It essentially represented the strongest level below comprehending the rules of chaotic evolution.

"Hahaha, excellent, excellent!" The Emperor of the Liyang Ancient Kingdom's face immediately lit up with a smile upon seeing this. He had originally been worried about how Lin Yuan would be able to withstand Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian for a hundred breaths. After all, Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian's methods were primarily focused on swift resolution.

The Red Lotus Karma Fire ignored defenses, making it difficult for ordinary Heavenly Sovereigns to withstand its burning for a hundred breaths. But now? From the looks of it, the question was no longer whether Lin Yuan could hold out for a hundred breaths, but rather who would emerge victorious between the two Heavenly Sovereigns.

"Red Lotus Throughout the Sky!" Facing the three hundred and thirty-three spatial-temporal blades, Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian reacted as if facing a formidable enemy, his physical body scattering once more into countless Red Lotus Karma Fires, drifting through space-time.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!

The three hundred and thirty-three spatial-temporal blades struck, shattering large swathes of space-time. The Red Lotus Karma Fires, drifting through space-time, were also affected.

However, by virtue of their ethereal nature, they still managed to barely withstand the three hundred and thirty-three spatial-temporal blades. After the three hundred and thirty-three spatial-temporal blades passed, Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian's form re-coalesced.

"Hmm?" Seeing this, Lin Yuan immediately prepared to strike again.

"Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way, there's no need to continue fighting," Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian immediately said. With the strength Lin Yuan had displayed, enduring him for a hundred breaths was perfectly normal. And given the current intensity of their exchanges, if they continued to fight, Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian would have to employ his true killing techniques.

However, such techniques were meant for enemies, and Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian naturally didn't want to use them on a fellow Heavenly Sovereign.

"Red Flame, what do you think?" Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian looked at Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame in the distance. It was Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame's idea to have him test Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way's strength in the first place.

"Indeed, there's no need to continue fighting," Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame nodded. His reason for having Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian take action was also to increase their chances of securing that first-rank treasure trove.

As long as Lin Yuan's strength reached the threshold of a Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign and didn't hinder them in the competition, Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame would turn a blind eye. And now, the strength Lin Yuan displayed was not just not a hindrance; it was a pleasant surprise.

Although Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame also desired that first-rank treasure trove, he hoped even more that this first-rank treasure trove could be claimed by the Liyang Ancient Kingdom. Everything he did was based on the interests of the Liyang Ancient Kingdom.

"Good," Lin Yuan nodded, retracting his divine ability 'World'. This divine ability, which had absorbed the essence of Liyang, exuded a strong Liyang aura when used. Even if he claimed he hadn't unearthed his Ancestral Bloodline to the Heavenly Sovereign level, no one would believe him.

"Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way's strength?"

"It's terrifying, he feels no weaker than Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian?"

"Is this a Heavenly Sovereign-level Ancestral Bloodline? Unprecedented?"

"Even a Heavenly Sovereign-level Ancestral Bloodline requires a lot of time to excavate. How long has it been since Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way's bloodline transformed to the Heavenly Sovereign level?"

"Freakish, truly too freakish."

The other ancient Heavenly Sovereigns watching were utterly shocked. They too felt Lin Yuan's terrifying power. Previously, the Heavenly Sovereigns had been quite dissatisfied with the Emperor's decision, believing that forcibly inserting Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way into the Heavenly Sovereign quota was simply the Emperor pulling strings. But now?

Even if Lin Yuan didn't have a core imperial family identity, he could completely contend for one of the twelve Heavenly Sovereign spots based on his own strength. The Emperor's intervention, allowing Lin Yuan into the Heavenly Sovereign list, was merely icing on the cake.

"Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way..." Among the many Heavenly Sovereigns, Heavenly Sovereign Chiyang looked at Lin Yuan in astonishment. He had previously interacted with Lin Yuan and was the former guardian of the Black Jade Nest.

At that time, Heavenly Sovereign Chiyang did not make things difficult for Lin Yuan when he took over the Black Jade Nest; instead, he decisively yielded, precisely because he didn't want to offend this core imperial family member. In Heavenly Sovereign Chiyang's view, Lin Yuan had immense future potential. There was no need for him to make a mortal enemy over a small amount of black jade.

Now it seemed, Heavenly Sovereign Chiyang was incredibly fortunate for his decision back then. How much time had passed? And Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way already possessed such strength?

Just then, Lin Yuan and Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian flew towards the many Heavenly Sovereigns. "Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way," Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian looked at Lin Yuan, sincerely admiring him. "I always believed that the Great Dao rules were fundamental. Now it seems that the extreme of bloodline power is in no way inferior to the power of Great Dao rules."

In their exchange, from start to finish, Lin Yuan hadn't used overly profound Great Dao rule comprehensions. Conversely, Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian had used his chaotic power evolution path—the Red Lotus Karma Fire—to burn Lin Yuan's physical body and soul.

"To reach the Ancestor level, one still needs to rely on the Great Dao rules," Lin Yuan said. Although the Liyang bloodline was a thirteenth-rank bloodline, it was impossible to reach the thirteenth rank solely by relying on this bloodline.

To cross into the thirteenth rank, one could only forcibly open up one's own chaotic power evolution path and break through the cycle of time.

"Reaching the Ancestor level is easier said than done" Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian shook his head. Over the long ages of the source world, only six beings had truly become Ancestors and established ancient kingdoms.

"Alright, Heavenly Sovereign Milky Way, don't be so humble," Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame interjected. "With your strength, continued growth will eventually lead you to surpass us."

Leaving aside the future potential excavation of the Ancestral Bloodline, just with Lin Yuan's current strength, if he comprehended a chaotic evolution rule path, even if it was just the first level, his strength would likely be comparable to Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame himself.

And given Lin Yuan's comprehension of space-time, comprehending a chaotic power evolution path was not an outlandish notion.

Lin Yuan listened obediently. His current strength was roughly on par with Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian. If they truly fought with all their might, Lin Yuan wasn't sure he could win.

As for comparing himself to Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame? He was clearly inferior. Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame's strength, even in the Chaos Void, was close to the Invincible Supreme Saint level, a step stronger than Heavenly Sovereign Hunxiao and Heavenly Sovereign Yulin.

"But the competition for the first-rank treasure trove is imminent. When battling Heavenly Sovereigns from other ancient kingdoms, it won't be as relaxed as it is now," Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame said, hinting at something.

"Understood," Lin Yuan nodded, comprehending Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame's meaning.

The sparring between Lin Yuan and Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian ended quickly, and neither side sustained any significant injuries, because neither had used their true offensive techniques.

If it came to a battle against enemy Heavenly Sovereigns for a first-rank treasure trove, those Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns might even sacrifice their main physical bodies. That level of combat was nothing like a simple sparring match.

"Alright, Milky Way, you should go back and rest first," the Liyang Ancient Kingdom's Emperor said. "We'll head to that treasure trove in ten years."

"Understood," Lin Yuan nodded, his figure disappearing from the spot.

"The future of our Liyang Ancient Kingdom..." Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame looked at the spot where Lin Yuan had disappeared, a hint of expectation in his heart. At this moment, compared to the ownership of the first-rank treasure trove, he was more curious about what level Lin Yuan's future would reach.

In the Milky Way King's Estate, after returning, Lin Yuan continued to cultivate and comprehend. The sparring with Heavenly Sovereign Hong Lian allowed him to understand his approximate strength level: that of an experienced Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign, but still not as strong as a top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign.

"First-rank treasure trove," Lin Yuan felt a strong desire for it. Competing for the first-rank treasure trove wasn't just for its benefits; he also intended to give back to the Liyang Ancient Kingdom. After all, Lin Yuan had received many benefits from this ancient kingdom during his years here and naturally wanted to repay them.

"My current strength is only enough to avoid being a burden in the treasure trove competition; I'm still too weak," Lin Yuan thought to himself, simultaneously beginning to dedicate part of his mind to comprehending the legacy Liyang, Xuanyin, Chaos.

His avatar, traveling through various great domains of the Xuanyin Ancient Kingdom, comprehended the essence blood of many Xuanyin Great Sovereigns, experiencing the Xuanyin Great Dao contained within them. As for Lin Yuan's true body in the King's Estate, he began to comprehend the 'Liyang Chapter' of the legacy.

Lin Yuan already had the Liyang bloodline flowing within him, and being located around the largest Liyang of the Liyang Ancient Kingdom, the Liyang Great Dao permeated the area, making comprehension effortless.

[Your Unrivaled Insight has led to an increase in your comprehension of the Liyang Great Dao.]

In a trance, Lin Yuan's mind and consciousness began to infinitely elevate, suddenly arriving in a blazing world filled with endless Liyang.

"Is this it?" Lin Yuan scanned his surroundings. He was very familiar with this place. After accumulating a sufficient number of Seeds, he could freely enter this mysterious Liyang World.

"Hmm?" Just by observing his surroundings, Lin Yuan noticed something amiss. Compared to his previous entry into this blazing world, his current position was different.

"It's much higher," Lin Yuan observed carefully, reaching a conclusion.

"Liyang Ancestor." Lin Yuan looked up at the majestic figure standing with hands behind his back at the highest point of the world. Due to his elevated position, the majestic figure he saw was much clearer, and he could discern many subtle details of its aura.

After observing for a while, Lin Yuan gained much insight, then promptly withdrew. He couldn't stay in that blazing world for too long, otherwise, there would be a risk of being assimilated.

The moment his mind and consciousness returned to his physical body, Lin Yuan's expression changed.

Inside his physical body, vast and boundless, Seeds resembling miniature suns floated, totaling thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-two. And at this moment, the thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-third Seed rapidly formed, materializing in an instant.

The moment this Seed appeared, it integrated with the previous thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-two Seeds, forming a complete whole, like a perfect Liyang Great Cycle.

Boom!!!
