Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 779

Chaos Void.

As Mo Xu-jun and the other time beings waited anxiously, a figure coalesced in the near distance.

It was Lin Yuan.

After refining the entire Chaos Void, Lin Yuan spent a moment sensing the changes within the dimensional space.

Then he sent out an avatar to meet with Mo Xu-jun and the others.

After all, they were surely full of doubts at this moment.

Why had Lin Yuan become a Time Lord so quickly?

“Milky Way!”

“Milky Way!”

Mo Xu-jun, Zhu Yin, and the others immediately turned to him.

“I know what you're thinking.”

Lin Yuan looked at the time beings and shook his head. “There are some things that can’t be easily explained. You only need to know—I was born from the Chaos Void.”

To Mo Xu-jun and the others, Lin Yuan’s growth speed was beyond belief. Could he be a vessel cultivated by some terrifying existence?

“We understand.”

Mo Xu-jun and the others felt reassured.

They believed Lin Yuan without hesitation.

After all, with his current ability to refine the entire Chaos Void, he had no reason to lie.

Even Mo Xu-jun, the strongest among them, was only a First Realm time being. Against a Third Realm Lord, he couldn’t resist in the slightest.

Now relieved—

Mo Xu-jun curiously asked, “Milky Way, what does being a Third Realm Lord feel like?”

Time beings who had lived through dozens or hundreds of Annihilation Cycles might have encountered Time Lords.

But Mo Xu-jun, who hadn’t even completed one full Annihilation Cycle, had only heard stories.

All he knew was that Time Lords must never be provoked.

“My life essence has drastically evolved,” Lin Yuan explained. “Also, my timeline has been fully consolidated. From now on, I have no weak periods.”

“No weak periods?” Mo Xu-jun and Zhu Yin looked envious.

Time beings below the Third Realm always had vulnerabilities in their past. The simplest way for a Lord to kill them was to travel to the past and strike them there.

“You don’t have to worry. The entire past of the Chaos Void lies under my gaze. No Lord can act in the past spacetime where the Chaos Void resides.”

Lin Yuan said this calmly.

Once he refined the Chaos Void, the entire space—past and future—was under his control.

In other words, since Mo Xu-jun and the others were born from the Chaos Void, their pasts resided within it—putting them under Lin Yuan’s protection.

Lin Yuan even felt that as his strength grew, he might be able to remove the Chaos Void entirely from the timeline, rendering it invisible to both past and future time beings.

“Thank you, Milky Way.”

Mo Xu-jun and the others exchanged glances, their hearts lightened.

Didn’t this mean that from now on, they could venture outside without fearing other Lords?

“I heard that in this dimensional gap, there's a Lord in residence—called Lord Chu Wei,” Zhu Yin couldn’t help saying. “Milky Way, even though you just entered the Third Realm, your strength shouldn’t be any weaker than Lord Chu Wei, right?”

Mo Xu-jun, Zhu Yin, and the others had only heard of Chu Wei’s name—they had never met him directly.

But judging from Lin Yuan’s past performance—battling a Second Stage being like Ancestor Hui when he was only at the First Realm—now that he had reached the Third Realm, he likely wasn’t any weaker than Chu Wei, who had been a Lord for countless years.

“Lord Chu Wei, huh…”

Lin Yuan's gaze turned deep as he looked in a certain direction. At the moment his name was mentioned, a shallow karmic connection formed between Lin Yuan and this Lord. Through that thread, Lin Yuan instantly saw all of Chu Wei’s true bodies, avatars, and backup life-saving methods.

With just a thought, Lin Yuan could erase every trace of Chu Wei’s presence in the current spacetime. Though Chu Wei wouldn’t die entirely—thanks to past-rooted means—it would take him countless years to recover.

“I should be slightly stronger than Lord Chu Wei.”

Lin Yuan smiled.

“Slightly stronger?”

Mo Xu-jun and the others felt a tremor in their hearts.

They knew Lin Yuan well—he never said things he wasn’t confident about. If he said “slightly stronger,” then that fearsome Lord Chu Wei likely was truly inferior to Lin Yuan.

As he chatted casually with them—

Lin Yuan’s true body began to elevate his soul and will, attempting to connect with the Supreme Lawway’s consciousness.

Endless Tribulation.

Lin Yuan was quite curious about this transcendent path—after all, it was the only one where the end could be seen.

So—

After reaching the Third Realm and becoming a Time Lord, the first thing Lin Yuan did was check what his first tribulation would be.

Buzz—the Supreme Lawway’s intent descended, and the contents of his first tribulation flowed into his mind.

“Go to the dimensional space at these coordinates and use a special purification method to cleanse the entire space?”

Lin Yuan read through the details of his first test.

The special purification method also appeared in his mind—it was something any ordinary Lord could master after a few years of study.

“Golden Moon Dimension.”

Information about the target dimension surfaced in Lin Yuan’s mind.

The Golden Moon Dimension, like the Celestial River Dimension, was among the few dimensional spaces that didn’t reject outsiders.

“No time limit.”

“This isn’t hard.”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Even if the Golden Moon Dimension rejected foreign time beings like the Chaos Void—

A Time Lord could still pay the price to integrate into it.

Not to mention Golden Moon didn’t reject outsiders.

And this first tribulation didn’t come with any time limit.

Lin Yuan had seen many tribulations in the Abyss of Tribulation at the deepest region of Wanwei Spacetime, and he knew that many had strict time constraints.

If the test wasn’t completed in time, it counted as failure.

“They say the first phase of tribulations isn’t too difficult for Lords—and it really seems that way.”

Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

At least, this first trial looked very straightforward.

“But no matter how simple, I still have to take it seriously.”

Lin Yuan had no intention of underestimating it. Every tribulation in Endless Tribulation, no matter how easy or hard—

Failure meant annihilation by the Supreme Lawway.

Lin Yuan wasn’t about to stumble at the first step.

The Supreme Lawway was comparable to half a Fourteenth-Rank existence.

If it tried to erase him, even burning Break-Realm Source Power might not be enough to resist—at least, not with the little he had accumulated so far.

“Fine. I’ll go there myself.”

Lin Yuan’s true body rose and stepped forward—vanishing from the Chaos Void.

Decades later.

Lin Yuan finally arrived at the edge of the Golden Moon Dimension.

The vast dimensional gap—so wide that even legendary Lords hadn’t explored its limits.

“So that’s the Golden Moon Dimension?”

Lin Yuan observed the massive space from afar.

“It’s occupied by a Time Lord?”

He clearly sensed a powerful aura entrenched within—belonging to a Time Lord.

In the past spacetime—

Qingya Mountain.

Spacetime Shop.

The twelve-eyed beast smiled at Lin Yuan and said, “Golden Moon Dimension is Lord Longshi’s territory.”

“Lord Longshi?”

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow thoughtfully.

Upon discovering that Golden Moon was already occupied, he didn’t act rashly.

If he could complete the purification through peaceful means, he would choose peace.

Forcefully removing Lord Longshi by power? Lin Yuan wasn’t sure how tightly the Lord controlled the dimension. What if he could destroy it with a single thought?

Even if Lin Yuan killed him, if Golden Moon was destroyed, he’d have no dimension to purify—and fail the trial.

Of course, such a possibility was extremely low. Unless someone had refined a space like Lin Yuan had, even a Lord couldn’t collapse a dimension instantly.

Even if Longshi did possess some method to do so, Lin Yuan could burn Break-Realm Source Power to stop it.

But that was far too precious—he’d rather not use it.

“Why are you asking?” the shopkeeper asked curiously.

Over the past sixty thousand years, Lin Yuan had often come to the Spacetime Shop for resources and was now familiar with the twelve-eyed beast.

Though the shopkeeper didn’t know Lin Yuan was the legendary “Milky Way” from Wanwei Spacetime—places like Qingya Mountain, where many Lords gathered, made asking about someone’s identity impolite.

In the shopkeeper’s eyes, Lin Yuan was just a Lord with great future potential.

“I need to borrow the Golden Moon Dimension,” Lin Yuan replied.

He didn’t mention that it was part of his Endless Tribulation trial.

“Borrow it?”

The shopkeeper frowned. “That Lord Longshi… his mental state is unstable. Not easy to reason with.”

“Unstable?”

“Not easy to deal with?”

Lin Yuan looked at him.

“Lord Longshi chose the Infinite Origin path to transcend,” the shopkeeper explained. “You know how dangerous that is—especially when exploring ancient timelines. He encountered some terrifying remnant imprint…”

Lin Yuan quietly listened.

The past is full of hidden dangers—the more ancient the era, the greater the risks. Getting lost is just one of them.

Worse are the imprints left by ancient beings—those who glimpsed the end of the path to transcendence but were erased by the Supreme Lawway at the final step.

When the Supreme Lawway descends to erase something, even a legendary Lord dies permanently. But the resentment and fragments of those terrifying beings are hard to eliminate—they linger in the past.

The greatest risk on the Infinite Origin path is encountering such remnants. At best, they influence or control you. At worst, they shatter your mind completely.

“Longshi was affected by one such remnant. He’s mostly mad now—barely lucid, and very hard to communicate with,” the shopkeeper said.

“I see.”

Lin Yuan understood immediately.

Violet-Light Legendary Lord had once joked that Lords were quite pitiful—and it wasn’t wrong. Someone like Longshi, who could still stay partially lucid, was considered lucky.

“If you want to borrow the Golden Moon Dimension, I can try to negotiate with him on your behalf—but I think it’ll cost some Time Sand.”

The shopkeeper said.

Involving an entire dimension would never be free.

“Time Sand isn’t a problem.”

Lin Yuan replied without hesitation, “Anything under five million catties—I agree.”

After his expedition to Wanwei Spacetime, Lin Yuan had made a fortune. He now had hundreds of millions of catties of Time Sand.

“Then it should work.”

The shopkeeper nodded.

Five million catties was more than enough to borrow Golden Moon.

Especially with him mediating.

Outside the Golden Moon Dimension—

Suddenly, a will descended near Lin Yuan, manifesting into the phantom of the twelve-eyed beast—it was the shopkeeper’s avatar.

“I’ve spoken to Lord Longshi. He’ll come out soon to speak with you directly.”

“Alright.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

Soon—

The distant Golden Moon Dimension surged violently.

A massive black dragon’s phantom emerged.

“Longshi,” the twelve-eyed beast stepped forward, approaching the shadow.

Lin Yuan also moved to follow.

“I’ve already explained everything. This is the buyer,” the beast introduced Lin Yuan. “He only wants to borrow the Golden Moon Dimension for a million years. Fifty thousand catties of Time Sand is more than fair.”

Although Lin Yuan had offered five million catties, the shopkeeper had no intention of starting with that.

“What do you want the Golden Moon Dimension for?” Longshi looked down at Lin Yuan, his aura already showing signs of madness and disorder.

“I’m interested in the flow of its Origin Laws—I want to study it,” Lin Yuan casually offered an excuse.

“Is that so…” Longshi grinned. “Fifty thousand catties is too little.”

“How much do you want?” Lin Yuan asked.

“Fifty million catties of Time Sand. Not a single cattie less.” Longshi stared at Lin Yuan.

“Fifty million?!”

The twelve-eyed beast blinked in surprise. “Longshi, are you crazy? Fifty million? Golden Moon isn’t even worth that much!”

“Give me some face. Two million catties.”

He tried to negotiate.

“Give you face?” Longshi’s tone turned irritated. “Who do you think you are? Not even a legendary Lord, and you want me to show respect?”

His voice grew more manic. “I’m the Lord of Return to Ruin—I’ve survived the 310-millionth tribulation! I'm on the brink of transcendence! And you want to talk about face?!”

“Lord of Return to Ruin?”

The twelve-eyed beast sighed. “Longshi… that Lord died long ago in a distant past. Your mind has been affected by his lingering remnant. Wake up.”

“I am the Lord of Return to Ruin! The Lord of Return to Ruin is me! Hahaha—!”

Longshi laughed wildly, his gaze locking onto Lin Yuan. “You have two choices—hand over fifty million catties of Time Sand, or get lost.”
