Chapter 1158 - Law

"It seems you have succeeded in fusing the two…" said Lin Xingzhi while crossing her arms. She looked happy to know that Alex was one step away from the God King Stage.

"Yeah. All I need right now is to form my Law. I am planning to stay here for three years to understand my Law before beginning to stir it up to reach God King Stage in your father's sealed space." Alex nodded with a serious expression.

"That's good." Lin Xingzhi smiled and hugged him. "Welcome back."

"Yeah. I'm back. Let me greet the others first before continuing my practice."

She nodded and released him before helping him call the others. The day passed just like that, meeting each other to rest a bit of his tiredness.

The next day, Alex proceeded to form his own law with caution. He wanted to grasp the Law by using the knowledge he'd got from the previous enlightenment. It was a precious incident that became one of the rarest ones, especially since the enlightenment itself was regarding the number one power in the Universe, the Law.

'What is Law? Does it have a form? What is the relation between Law and its User? Will they become a tool like that of a sword? Will they become a partner and fight together with their master? Will they turn into a form that only the user can see?' Alex kept thinking about these questions along with many others regarding Law in his practice.

Even Lin Xingzhi didn't dare to advise him that much since her knowledge wasn't on par with Alaya. At the same time, she knew that the Law could only be grasped by the person itself. Hence, she would rather keep her silent instead of dictating or teaching the Law to Alex.

There was a thought of calling Alaya to get advice, but she decided to put that thought away for now.

After one year of perceiving the Law, Alex suddenly came out of his room, meeting Lin Xingzhi, who seemed to be worried about his well-being.

"Alex!"

"Ah, hi." Alex's face looked pale. "This is the first time I'm using my brain for a whole year without resting. To think Law is this hard… Well, if a muscle brain like the Palm God can do it, I should be able to do it too…"

"How is your progress?" Lin Xingzhi asked carefully as if telling him not to say too much. "I just want to know your condition. If two people have the same knowledge about Law, their understanding will clash. The winner will become a God King while the loser will be reduced to Rank 2 God…"

Alex nodded in understanding before making a tired smile. "I know. Don't worry. For now, I think I make a little progress? But in this case, I'm afraid we will be too late. I can only reach God King Stage in one hundred years. That's something I can't afford. Do you know any advice?"

"I am not too sure. My knowledge isn't that deep regarding Law even though I'm one of the strongest God Kings… You can see the condition of the current God Kings, right?" Lin Xingzhi looked down as she was disappointed in herself.

"No need to beat yourself for something like this." Alex smiled before remembering a certain person. "That's right. Alaya is in Eulja, right? Can you call her for me along with the other God Kings? I just want to see what kind of view you have for your Law. It's not about your Law itself of course. I think that's fine to be told to others, right?"

Lin Xingzhi pondered for a moment before agreeing to his request. "I understand. The topic itself is not forbidden, but we will see whether Alaya gives us a warning or not. You should walk around first to refresh your mind. I will call you when I have gathered them."

"Alright. Thanks."

Lin Xingzhi then went outside, visiting all the God Kings in Eulja.

A few minutes later.

While Alex went around, Anna, Jeanne, and some others had arrived in the garden, wondering about Alex's improvement. Since some of them were God Kings, they wanted to see what kind of Law he had.

After all, they had grown more accustomed to the Law to the point they could somehow feel the Law around them. For example, Korzan seemed to understand the Law of Magma. Although it wasn't strong enough to allow him to break through to the God King Stage, it was the most amazing one among the Spirits… As one would expect from the strongest Rank 2 God in Eulja.

"Queen Anna, what do you think Master's Law is? Now that I have gotten good enough, I'm curious to see the different types of Law," said Jeanne while furrowing her eyebrows, feeling pretty eager to meet Alex.

"I am not sure." Anna shook her head and looked at Jeanne. "I can feel that your Law is a kind of the one attracting the Element Energy around you, right?"

"Yes. Because my understanding has increased, I have formed a small Law inside my body. Its only purpose is to attract the nearby Lightning Element to my body to increase my strength continuously." Jeanne admitted.

"Well, we are more or less the same type. I'm the one that attracts elements as well, specifically my Dark Element and its energy." Anna contemplated for a moment. "That's right. I'm wondering what type of Law you have, God of Wrath? It's not a problem to share this, right?"

Seeing Alaya nod her head, Marcus decided to explain it to them. "I'm the Wrath itself or you can say it's the personification of anger. It does affect the surroundings, turning their emotion or cause a chaotic reaction because of this anger, but the effect will be amplified if it's to my own body. Well, I am currently working on how to balance both of them. If I can do that, I am sure I can handle a single God King from their side alone."

Alaya nodded in agreement, feeling proud that she managed to train this God King. She then glanced at Leoz and asked, "So, when are you going to do it, Leoz?"

"Ahaha, I'm trying." Leoz scratched the back of his head. "I promise to become a God King soon."

"Yeah, yeah. I'm going to believe you." Alaya shrugged before explaining. "Actually, there are two different things you need to consider to become a God King. The first thing will be your Law. What kind of Law do you wish to achieve? This is a simple solution to some God Kings.

"For example, you two… Since your element is fixed and you have been relying on it for a long time, your opinion will be leaning to that particular element to your Law. However, there are different types like me and this Marcus here.

"Marcus himself is related to his character. Because he is angry all the time… Even though he doesn't show it, the thought itself influences him for a long time and eventually turns him into one itself.

"Meanwhile, my Life and Death Law is a combination of my experience, existence, and understanding. My Element is Light and Dark, but I didn't become a Light and Dark Goddess… Why? The elements are suppressed by those three.

"Understanding the meaning of Life and Death turns into a belief of mine. My existence has also slowly turned into one that is between Life and Death, so you can say I'm half alive at this point. That's why I can fake my own death for thousands of years. Last but not least, my experience… Have you experienced dying and reincarnating a few times? I have. My understanding about Life and Death turns everything into my power and gradually wields that power myself." Alaya explained with a sad smile.

The others could feel the hardship she had gone through in her younger days.

Changing the topic, she continued her explanation. "The second thing is about the type of law. There are limitless types of Law… What do you think Law is?"

The others narrowed their eyes and looked down. This was a question they never asked themselves, so they ended up shaking their heads in disappointment.

"Law is a wish. What is your wish when you wield that Law? Your wish will affect your surroundings, whether it's the people around you, the environment, or even the Universe itself. Look at yourself, you have been manipulating the energy around you… I don't know if the Spirit has a similar vision, but you all are focused on Manipulation… Element Manipulation.

"Your Law is to govern the Element around you. Well, you are still greenhorns, so I'm going to take another man as an example… Hmm, who should I choose…" Alaya thought for a moment and remembered a certain person. "That's right. Let's say it's Phitrus. His Godly Pure Fire has allowed him to make Fire Element Users kneel, but his Law has the ability to govern the flame.

"In other words, he can force the people who have Fire Elements in their bodies to explode… Many had suffered from that and no one dared to fight him anymore. His wish to influence the flame has controlled all the Fire Energy to do something like this. This is the closest type to you three.

"We can see Lin Xingzhi. It's a different type of Manipulation. Instead of people, she aims at the Universe itself, allowing her to control the Element Energy as a part of Nature. Of course, each type has its own advantages and disadvantages, so I'm not saying Lin Xingzhi is inferior to Phitrus, but her level of control is lacking currently.

"As for me… My wish is to govern the Samsara. I don't know if you have heard about it, but those who have been put in my Life and Death Coffin will be in a trial where their future will be judged. They can be reincarnated, punished in "Hell", or simply erased from this Universe. This is my type. That Life and Death Coffin is my own personification that has a tangible form, unlike Marcus. That's how it is, I hope you understand a bit more about Law."

"Thank you for your lesson." This should be showing gratitude for such an important lesson, but the one who said it wasn't among them.

Even Alaya widened her eyes as she turned around, finding the real figure who said it, accompanied by Lin Xingzhi.

"Well, I'm planning to exchange some information about Law, but this is truly great." Alex made a big smile as he couldn't help but hug Alaya, raising her to the sky since her figure was even smaller than Jeanne.

"What are you doing, Spirit God? Release me right now. Five thousand years ago, everyone who treated me like a child would be dead the next day!" Alaya struggled to break free, but Alex held her tightly, expressing his gratitude. "Alright, alright. I know you're happy, but can you release me? Pretty please."

"Hahaha… After listening to you, I was like… so that's how it is… Law is like air. It's there but can't be seen. It keeps us alive but can only be sensed. It affects our daily life in a way we don't even know about. In other words, I have been thinking it wrong this whole time. The essence of my Law is how everything it's related to others.

"Unlike Xingzhi's Nature Law, where it can take a form in the real world such as the Spiritual Energy or even the elements. Unlike God of Wrath's personification of a character… My Law is not that." Alex put her down, smirked and turned around. "I'm leaving right now."

"What?!" Lin Xingzhi and the others were baffled by his sudden burst and decision, but they knew everything would be alright. Lin Xingzhi believed that Alex had received another enlightenment. The only thing they needed to do was to believe in him.

Alaya only shook her head and said while trying to calm down. "It seems he has found the perfect Law for him. I mean, the Law itself has been found long ago. This time, it's the type."

"Yeah."

"I wonder what his Law is…"
