Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 648

Having evolved the Tao of Chaos Tai Chi, Lin Yuan was certain that his strength had completely surpassed that of a Supreme Saint.

But whether he had truly reached the level of an Invincible Supreme Saint, he still wasn’t sure.

The gap between a Supreme Saint and an Invincible Supreme Saint was simply too vast.

Back in the day, His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign could effortlessly hunt down top-tier Supreme Saints like Saint Hun Xiao and Saint Yu Lin, leaving them with no escape until they were forced into reincarnation.

Even among the six ancient Kingdoms of the Source World, the strongest Heavenly Sovereigns comparable to Invincible Supreme Saints—such as Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign—stood far above the top Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns.

In front of Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign, Lin Yuan hadn’t even had a chance to fight back. He could only endure the assault passively, as the opponent's power and techniques were completely beyond his capacity to handle.

So now, Lin Yuan was curious about his own strength—was he merely close to the Invincible Supreme Saint level, or had he already fully stepped into that realm?

“Want to know how strong you really are?”

The red-clothed girl twitched the corner of her mouth at his words.

If she weren’t already familiar with Lin Yuan’s character and hadn’t known that he had just undergone a massive transformation as the inheritor of Infinite Void, she might have doubted the seriousness of his question.

“Alright.”

The red-clothed girl nodded and flipped her hand.

At once, the jade gourd trembled lightly, and a chunk of Immortal Essence Gold several hundred meters in size flew out and floated in front of Lin Yuan.

“If you can pierce through this piece of Immortal Essence Gold, you roughly possess the strength of the fifth level of Infinite Void,” the red-clothed girl said.

Infinite Void had seven levels in total. The seventh was purely theoretical, while the fifth was the norm for reaching the thirteenth-rank inheritance—once one cultivated to the fifth level, they would possess the power to dominate the Chaos Void and become an Invincible Supreme Saint.

As for the sixth level? Throughout history, very few inheritors of Infinite Void had ever reached that level.

“Pierce through it?”

Lin Yuan gazed at the Immortal Essence Gold before him.

The second level of Infinite Void required leaving a mark over ten centimeters deep on this metal.

But the fifth level? It required piercing through a piece of Immortal Essence Gold several hundred meters thick—a huge leap in difficulty.

Hua la la.

The cosmic power in his body surged, and a vast black-and-white Tai Chi diagram shimmered faintly into view.

The massive chunk of Immortal Essence Gold in front of Lin Yuan began twisting and disintegrating rapidly. In just a single breath, the entire block was pierced through, and the remaining parts were still crumbling.

“That kind of force?”

The red-clothed girl took a deep breath. She had barely sensed any fluctuation in power before the Immortal Essence Gold was penetrated—this was a sign that the power had been fully restrained.

In other words, Lin Yuan hadn’t even used his full strength.

Once someone struck with full power, it was nearly impossible to contain all the force so perfectly.

“Your internal universe has already reached the fifth level of Infinite Void... No, it should be close to the sixth level. Your strength has fully stepped into the Invincible Supreme Saint realm.”

The red-clothed girl quickly said this, while glancing at the ruined Immortal Essence Gold with a bit of heartache.

Immortal Essence Gold was left behind by the founder of Infinite Void. Every bit used meant less remained. Normally, the red-clothed girl would only produce a piece one or two meters in size. If Lin Yuan’s power hadn’t been so overwhelming, she never would have taken out such a large chunk.

“Invincible Supreme Saint?”

Lin Yuan felt a sense of certainty in his heart.

At the same time, he thought of His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign and the master of the Devil Jade Tower.

Back when his home universe was still extremely weak, he had already heard of these two peerless powerhouses. Now, he had finally reached the same level of strength they once stood on.

Of course, His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign had eventually broken free from the cycle of time and surpassed the twelfth-rank boundary. He no longer belonged to any conventional level.

“What do you plan to do next?”

The red-clothed girl put away the Immortal Essence Gold and asked curiously.

“First, I’ll finish cultivating the third level of Infinite Void.”

Lin Yuan replied. He had been working on the third level for quite some time, and evolving the Tao of Chaos Tai Chi had pushed his internal universe through a massive transformation, which had greatly accelerated his progress in this thirteenth-rank inheritance.

“The third level of Infinite Void?”

The red-clothed girl looked at him fixedly and suddenly realized—this inheritor hadn’t even fully mastered the third level of Infinite Void yet.

And he already had this kind of power before completing the third level. If he succeeded, how high could he go? The sixth level?

After chatting a bit more with the red-clothed girl,

Lin Yuan threw himself fully into cultivating the third level of Infinite Void.

At its core, this thirteenth-rank inheritance reshaped and restructured the micro-particles of one’s internal universe. Under the guidance of the Tao of Chaos Tai Chi, this transformation became significantly easier.

Plus, Lin Yuan had already completed most of the third level.

So—

In just one or two years, Lin Yuan’s internal universe underwent yet another transformation.

At the microscopic level, the structure of his internal universe was becoming ever more complete and perfect.

“The third level is done.”

Lin Yuan opened his eyes and gazed down at his vast internal universe.

Not to mention how stable the Dao of time and space had become in this universe—just its sheer size alone had undergone two transformations: first through the evolution of the Tao of Chaos Tai Chi, and now through completing the third level of Infinite Void.

Lin Yuan’s internal universe had reached five hundred trillion light-years across.

Five hundred trillion light-years—far greater than the naturally-born universes of the Chaos Void. Even among Supreme Saints, few possessed internal universes of this scale.

And this was despite the fact that Lin Yuan’s internal universe wasn’t even specialized in size and area.

“With my current strength, I might even count as strong among the Invincible Supreme Saints?”

Lin Yuan pondered. The Chaos Void was unlike the Source World—the Invincible Supreme Saints here were solitary figures, making direct comparisons difficult.

“Time to keep cultivating.”

Lin Yuan took out the thirteenth-rank weapon, the Heavenly Void Cauldron, and continued to comprehend the endless Dao principles within it. Meanwhile, his body, soul, and internal universe were still growing, pushing ever closer to their ultimate limit.

When that time came, it would mark Lin Yuan’s step into the Chaos realm.

Source World.

Inside a treasured land.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes and felt the surge of power in his true body.

Having evolved the path of Chaos power and completed the third level of Infinite Void, his strength in the Source World had also received a huge boost.

“The time-space suppression in this treasured land can’t hold me back anymore.”

Lin Yuan observed the surrounding space-time.

This newly revealed land was connected to the Source World’s source and produced strong space-time suppression. It not only greatly reduced the detection range of Heavenly Sovereign-level beings but also severely limited the distance of space-time transmigration.

Even top Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns would need considerable time to traverse the entire land on their own. Only the likes of Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign could cross the area in a single breath.

But now—

Lin Yuan had already sensed that the suppression here could no longer restrain him. That meant he too could traverse the entire land in a single breath, just like Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign.

Perhaps even faster.

“Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign?”

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking in a certain direction.

That was the location where the first colossal core pillar emerged. Lin Yuan had happened to be nearby at the time and had the best chance to refine it.

But that opportunity had been seized by the late-arriving Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign.

Back then, Lin Yuan hadn’t even had the strength to resist and had been slapped away like a bug.

Capital of the Liyang Kingdom, in an independent space—

“Everyone, next we’ll have to confront the powerhouses of other ancient Kingdoms head-on to compete for the core pillars.”

Heavenly Sovereign Red Flame spoke solemnly.

After more than a thousand years in the treasured land, most of the unclaimed core pillars had been refined by ancient Kingdom powerhouses.

Now, to refine more, they would have to seize them from the hands of other ancient Kingdoms.

“Alright.”

“No problem.”

“Red Flame, who are you planning to target first?”

The Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns all nodded. They had long been prepared. The first millennium in the treasured land was only the warm-up. The scuffles among ancient Kingdoms had been measured and restrained.

But in the five hundred years to come, the competition would escalate rapidly. The final five hundred years would be the peak of conflict, with all top Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns going all-out and each ancient Kingdom deploying their most terrifying trump cards.

“Hmm.”

Red Flame Heavenly Sovereign nodded and suddenly turned to Lin Yuan, asking gently, “Milky Way, what do you think?”

As one of the only four top Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns from the Liyang Kingdom, Lin Yuan was someone Red Flame took very seriously.

“What do I think?”

Lin Yuan was slightly taken aback, then after some thought replied, “Can we wait a little longer?”

“Wait a little longer?”

Red Flame Heavenly Sovereign looked puzzled.

The other Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns were also a bit surprised.

Why wait?

“I plan to—”

Lin Yuan grinned. “—take back that colossal core pillar!”

Colossal core pillar.

Several top Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns of the Grand Ancient Void Kingdom were seated in meditation around it.

The colossal core pillar was simply too important. Even though it had already been refined by Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign, Grand Ancient Void’s other powerhouses still stationed a battle-ready body nearby in case of any unexpected events.

“Hahaha! In this treasure land competition, Grand Ancient Void has already refined seventy-two core pillars. Add this colossal one, and that makes eighty-two total.”

“We’re nearly thirty ahead of the second-place Barbarian Ancient Kingdom.”

The Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns of Grand Ancient Void were quite relaxed. Their ancient Kingdom already held an absolute advantage. Even if the last two colossal core pillars both ended up in the hands of a rival ancient Kingdom, Grand Ancient Void would still come out on top in core pillar numbers.

Not to mention—the chances of both colossal core pillars falling to the same Kingdom were very low. Even Grand Ancient Void wasn’t confident of that, let alone the others.

“It’s all thanks to Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign. Without him, this pillar might’ve ended up with the Liyang Kingdom.”

“That’s right. That Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign from Liyang had incredible luck—the pillar descended right next to him. But so what, when Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign's power is unmatched?”

“Tch, luck doesn’t mean anything. Didn’t he still get smacked away by Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign?”

The Grand Ancient Void Kingdom’s Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns chatted casually. As the oldest ancient Kingdom, they held a subtle sense of superiority over their peers—even when speaking of someone like Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign, the first to elevate an ancestral bloodline to the Heavenly Sovereign level.

So what if it’s an ancestral bloodline at the Heavenly Sovereign level?

Just then—

A young man appeared near the colossal core pillar.

At the center of his brow faintly glowed a black-and-white Tai Chi diagram. Yin and Yang qi swirled gently as he stood openly in the sight of all Grand Ancient Void’s stationed Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns.

He stood there silently, making no move.

Yet all of Grand Ancient Void’s Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns felt their hearts tremble. Regardless of strength—be they top-tier or ordinary—all felt their state of mind shaken, their breath stifled.
