Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 776

Although it was only speculation, the Violet-Light Legendary Lord was almost certain.

The endless white jade staircase was far too extraordinary, its aura seemingly transcending all things.

“What should we do now?”

A Legendary Lord asked in a low voice.

The implication was clear—how should they treat Lin Yuan?

Although Lin Yuan’s current strength was ordinary, not even at the Lord level, in the future, he was highly likely to become one of the strongest Legendary Lords in the vast dimensional gap—and possibly connected to Transcendence itself.

“Keep your distance,”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord said after a brief pause.

“Keep our distance?”

The other Legendary Lords exchanged glances.

Lin Yuan’s future was so terrifying that even Legendary Lords found it hard to comprehend.

Faced with such a being, none of them dared provoke him.

But to deliberately get close? That too was something they dared not do—for fear of being entangled in some immense karmic fate and being unable to extricate themselves.

The stronger and more advanced one's realm, the more one could sense how terrifying anything related to Transcendence was within the vast dimensional gap.

Perhaps an ordinary Lord, upon witnessing such a powerful future, would immediately seek to form a relationship.

But Legendary Lords thought further ahead—related to Transcendence?

Since ancient times, those who tried to approach Transcendence—or even draw near to it—had mostly died.

None met a good end.

Legendary Lords were willing to risk death in pursuit of Transcendence, but they didn’t want to die without even knowing why.

“Yes. Keep our distance.”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord nodded. “And above all, never offend him.”

“Understood,”

The other Legendary Lords replied.

Shifting his gaze from the loot he had just absorbed into his inner cosmos, Lin Yuan glanced around.

At the moment, many Time Lords were cautiously, warily observing him.

“You may all leave,”

Lin Yuan said. He was no Blood Sea Lord and had no interest in plundering others.

In fact, with his current strength, he couldn’t even if he wanted to. As for summoning his future self again?

That was a trump card. Calling upon his future self too often could severely affect the timeline—just as present Lords were capable of changing the past, but didn’t dare do so recklessly.

Even Legendary Lords interfering with the past risked enormous danger.

Like the Blood Sea Lord—his future self had entered the Legendary realm, yet meddling with the current spacetime ended up provoking Lin Yuan’s future self.

That was the kind of unforeseeable, massive risk one could encounter.

Lin Yuan feared that summoning his future self repeatedly would bring similar trouble.

Besides, summoning his future self also required consent.

If his past self constantly summoned him to deal with problems, even he would be annoyed.

“We can leave?”

The Time Lords around him exhaled in relief.

Compared to the Blood Sea Lord, who had summoned his future self to extort massive amounts of Time Sand, Lin Yuan didn’t need to do anything—just one sentence was enough.

No Lord dared refuse Lin Yuan.

“May I ask your name?”

One Time Lord asked tentatively.

“Milky Way,”

Lin Yuan replied calmly.

By now, there was no need to hide his identity.

“Milky Way?”

The Lords present etched the name into their minds, then began departing one after another.

After sending his loot out of the Wanwei Space-Time via a split-off avatar—

Lin Yuan looked toward the deepest part of the Wanwei Space-Time.

This realm had three layers: the outer region, the inner region, and the deepest region.

The outer region was explored by ordinary Lords; the inner region was for second-tier Lords. As for the deepest region—

Only those who had touched the threshold of the Legendary level could approach. To actually enter? One had to be either a Legendary Lord or a very special second-tier peak Lord.

Lin Yuan had explored the inner region for thousands of years and gained enough. Now, he wanted to head toward the deepest region to see it for himself.

He didn’t expect to enter—just being able to get close and witness it would suffice.

It was said that the deepest region contained vital information left behind by the Lord of Wanwei Space for future Legendary Lords—related to the path of Transcendence. That was why every time the realm opened, Legendary Lords entered.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan immediately flew toward the deepest region.

Years passed.

He finally arrived just outside the deepest region.

Ahead was a distorted void entrance, with scattered Time Lords gathered nearby.

Any Lord who dared appear here had touched the threshold of the Legendary realm—most were second-tier peak Lords.

Those on the threshold came merely to witness it; the peak second-tier Lords were here hoping to enter.

There were two conditions to enter:

Be a Legendary Lord—

Or a “special” second-tier peak Lord.

“Special” had no concrete definition—it simply meant being able to pass through the entrance.

Lin Yuan gazed at the twisted void entrance. The spacetime laws within were utterly different from the outside.

“As expected of the Lord of Wanwei Space.”

Lin Yuan was awed. Just by observing the entrance, he could vaguely sense the presence of the ancient Lord.

It was absolute mastery over spacetime—creating a set of laws distinct from the existing spacetime itself.

Just as Lin Yuan was observing—

Suddenly, the once-calm entrance rippled. A figure was forcibly thrown out.

“No!”

The figure was full of unwillingness. He steadied himself and stared at the entrance, wanting to enter again—but was blocked.

“Even the Flame War Lord failed?”

“The Flame War Lord reached the second-tier peak hundreds of Great Destruction Cycles ago. He’s only one tribulation away from becoming a Legendary Lord. Among second-tier peak Lords, his foundation is top-tier—and even he doesn’t meet the ‘special’ requirement to enter?”

“It’s too difficult.”

The surrounding Lords whispered, not with mockery, but with sympathy.

“Flame War Lord?”

Lin Yuan glanced at the expelled figure. He recognized him—an extremely renowned Lord, in some aspects even surpassing some Legendary Lords.

Many third-tier Legendary Lords were buried in the pursuit of Transcendence—so in terms of reputation, some second-tier peak Lords surpassed them.

“I’ll give it a try.”

After Flame War Lord exited, another Lord stepped forward and entered the void passage.

Only second-tier peak Lords dared attempt entry—those who had merely touched the Legendary threshold lacked the ability to even try.

“Before the void entrance lies layer upon layer of temporal force. Only second-tier peak Lords can endure it and attempt entry.”

Lin Yuan thought to himself, giving up on trying.

His true realm wasn't even at the Lord level. His timeline wasn’t yet consolidated. There was no hope of withstanding that kind of temporal pressure.

“But just seeing it is already worthwhile.”

He wasn’t too disappointed.

Not long after—

The Lord who had entered after Flame War Lord was also expelled.

“What kind of second-tier peak does one have to be to qualify for entry?”

That Lord frowned deeply.

Lin Yuan continued to watch from afar.

Then—

Whoooosh—

The calm void entrance suddenly began to churn.

The reaction far exceeded the ripples caused by rejecting those second-tier peak Lords.

Next—

From within the entrance emerged several figures radiating terrifying auras.

The leading figure emanated violet light, as if illuminating layer upon layer of spacetime dimensions.

“They’re Legendary Lords?”

“They are!”

“Why are the Legendary Lords coming out?”

The Time Lords were stunned.

It was still a long time before the realm was set to close.

By rights, those meditating in the deepest region shouldn’t emerge so soon.

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord scanned the surroundings, his gaze settling on Lin Yuan. He smiled. “Little friend, are you planning to enter the deepest region to comprehend its secrets?”

The other Legendary Lords also looked at Lin Yuan.

After witnessing a glimpse of Lin Yuan’s future, they had all come to the same conclusion—

Keep a respectful distance.

But now that Lin Yuan had arrived at the entrance, showing clear interest in the deepest region…

They could no longer sit idly by.

Keeping their distance didn’t mean ignoring or rejecting him.

Now that Lin Yuan had reached the entrance, if they still acted indifferent—

Then in the future, when he became one of the strongest Legendary Lords in the vast Multiverse, they’d surely suffer for it.

So every Legendary Lord present had come out to greet him.

They were prepared to bring Lin Yuan into the deepest region.

Besides the two ways to enter mentioned before—

There was one more: being brought in by a Legendary Lord.

Just like a Time Lord could bring time beings into the Wanwei Space-Time.

But Legendary Lords were such lofty beings—why would they ever bring a second-tier Lord into the deepest region?

So this method had never really been considered.

“To comprehend the deepest region?”

Lin Yuan looked at the Legendary Lords watching him with goodwill. After a moment of thought, he nodded. “Yes.”

Clearly, they had been alerted by the incident when he summoned his future self.

That had to be the reason for this reception.

Besides that, Lin Yuan couldn’t think of any other reason they’d treat him so kindly.

Given the situation—

He certainly wasn’t going to refuse.

He hadn’t planned on entering the deepest region…

But if the opportunity was there, he wasn’t going to let it pass.

“Come with us, little friend.”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord smiled and raised his hand, forcefully opening a passage into the void entrance.

“Alright.”

Lin Yuan followed him in at once.

Once Lin Yuan entered, the other Legendary Lords followed one after another.

“What just happened?”

Outside the entrance, the gathered Time Lords were stunned. The deepest region they all longed to enter—Lin Yuan had just walked in?

Escorted by multiple Legendary Lords?

“Who is he?”

“What kind of person would make the Legendary Lords treat him like this?”

Lin Yuan entering the deepest region was already shocking. But the Legendary Lords’ attitude was even more incredible.

Second-tier Lords had entered before—but for so many Legendary Lords to come out and personally welcome someone? That had never happened.

“I remember now. He’s ‘Milky Way’—the one who erased the Blood Sea Lord’s future Legendary self with his future body. In the future, this ‘Milky Way’ becomes an immensely powerful Legendary Lord.”

A Time Lord explained.

“So that’s it.”

“The past self of a supremely powerful Legendary Lord?”

The Time Lords finally understood. That at least somewhat explained the Legendary Lords’ actions.

“A Legendary Lord... and not just any—an incredibly powerful one!”

The Time Lords looked on in awe. If his future self were just an ordinary Legendary Lord, the others wouldn’t have responded like this.

“Milky Way.”

They all firmly engraved that name into their memories.

Wanwei Space-Time.

The deepest region.

It was a world of blinding white.

Seven or eight Legendary Lords walked alongside Lin Yuan, explaining everything.

“That’s the Origin Stone—it holds the Lord of Wanwei Space’s insights into the ‘Infinite Origin’ path of Transcendence, recording taboos from certain ancient epochs.”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord pointed to a massive divine stone.

“Origin Stone?”

Lin Yuan glanced from afar and vaguely sensed images from a distant, ancient past.

“The past spacetime is extremely dangerous—especially the parts involving terrifying existences.”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord said solemnly. “Many of those beings fell because they were too close to Transcendence, yet their traces remain in the past. Exploring the Infinite Origin path often means encountering such remnants.”

“I see.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

He had thought the main danger of that path was getting lost.

But clearly, that was just one of many threats.

“In the deepest region, the Lord of Wanwei Space left behind two things: the Origin Stone—and the Abyss of Tribulation.”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord looked into the distance.

Lin Yuan followed his gaze to a dark abyss.

“The Abyss of Tribulation contains records of the countless tribulations the Lord of Wanwei Space experienced—and many others as well. Though every Lord faces different trials on the ‘Endless Tribulation’ path, seeing others’ experiences still holds great value.”

The Violet-Light Legendary Lord explained.

“Mm.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

The forms might differ, but the essence was often the same.

After chatting a while longer with the Legendary Lords—

Lin Yuan began his solitary comprehension.

In the deepest region of the Wanwei Space-Time, aside from the Origin Stone and Abyss of Tribulation—

There was also the Lord of Wanwei Space’s own understanding of spacetime.

For Lin Yuan, this would greatly help consolidate his timeline and continue developing the follow-up to The Innate Five Tais.

Time passed quietly.

In the blink of an eye, sixty thousand years had gone by.
