Chapter 1786: Forming the Fifth Divine Rule
Chapter 1786: Forming the Fifth Divine Rule
"..." Ananta Shesha simply couldn’t believe what Nathan was attempting. It was simply too ridiculous, even if they somehow managed to connect the dots.
After all, the power they planned to harness was the most mysterious power in this world.
Yet Nathan didn’t run from the challenge. He knew it was going to be hard. It might even be impossible. However, it didn’t change the fact that he had to do it.
Nathan took a deep breath and started producing his Soul Contract. Since he had to do trial and error to find the perfect combination, he started with a small amount of ena.
Of course, the Soul Contract’s purpose was adjusted as well. Instead of hosting the divine rule, he used the Soul Contract to bear the karma, just like how he usually used it to transfer the karma.
Instead of letting it flow, Nathan tried to keep it inside for as long as possible.
Once it became possible, he proceeded with the next step, which was integration. This integration was the most important. If it couldn’t merge with Nathan, it would be useless.
This was the hard part. After all, the nature of the Soul Contract would change the moment it contained a divine rule.
The process took a long time, even within the time domain. After all, Nathan first needed to nurture the power of karma before accumulating the power of divine rule before integrating it with his body.
Each time he had to do it, a long process needed to be done. Even with the time domain, it took Nathan fifteen days before finding the working solution. Those fifteen days were equal to 3,000 days inside the time domain.
Nathan even had to sit out the expedition since he wanted to focus on his progress.
After almost a decade in the time domain, Nathan gradually opened his eyes. Next to him was a floating scroll.
This Soul Contract had been imbued with the power of karma and had been nurtured to hold the fifth divine rule.
The biggest problem would be integrating that power into his body.
"Huuu... Here we go again." Nathan had tried many combinations. This time, he tuned the ena not by using his own energy, but by using the world’s energy. However, the karma’s origin is him.
In other words, this Soul Contract belonged both to the world and to him.
Originally, Nathan used his ena and even the alien ena. However, none of them worked. In the end, he failed during the integration process.
Ultimately, he chose the world’s ena. He wanted to use the same process as absorbing the alien’s ena but with the world’s ena.
He extended his hand as the scroll gradually descended into his palm. Nathan then pulled it closer to his body and placed it right in front of his chest.
"Huuu..." After taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes. "Let’s see if I will succeed or not."
Nathan started to control the energy around the scroll and pulled the scroll into his heart.
He could feel the scroll’s extraordinary presence.
There were three steps that he needed to do. After trial and error, he realized that he first had to use the other four divine rules to assimilate the divine rule within the scroll.
The first step itself wasn’t hard, so Nathan managed to pull it off in a few hours.
The second step required him to fuse the energy from the world and his body. Nathan couldn’t do it because he couldn’t take the world’s energy.
However, he had prepared a countermeasure this time.
[In exchange for the 100,000 ena from Nathan B, Nathan will provide 100,000 ena to the world.]
That was right. Since he couldn’t take the world’s energy, he just had to exchange it with his own.
This would create an equivalent trade between him and the world.
The third step was hidden within the contract. Nathan specifically mentioned the contract’s name as Nathan B. This meant that he had changed the identity of the Soul Contract from a normal contract to a body double.
Nathan immediately formed three more contracts.
[In exchange for 100,000 ena, Nathan Reckmoon’s existence will disappear for one second.]
[In exchange for 100,000 ena, Nathan B will become Nathan Reckmoon for 0.5 seconds.]
[In exchange for 1,000,000 ena, Nathan Reckmoon will disappear for five minutes.]
By activating these three contracts in succession, Nathan first disappeared, allowing his power to flow into the contract. This contract would then become Nathan Reckmoon for half a second.
After that, the contract would disappear, while the real Nathan Reckmoon reappeared. There was a contradiction in the third contract. Because the contract was also called Nathan Reckmoon, which Nathan Reckmoon would actually disappear?
In the end, it was the contract. Even if it was just for half a second, that contract became Nathan Reckmoon.
Hence, when Nathan reappeared, the power of ’Nathan Reckmoon’ returned to the real Nathan Reckmoon.
"Huuu..." Nathan took a deep breath as the power was integrated back into his body. Normally, he would fail here because of various things, such as the alien’s ena that ended up blocking him as it tried to disperse his power because of the lack of ownership.
But after changing the energy from any other sources to the world’s energy, the world wanted to take possession of it, but because the world was fair, the world had no choice but to give it to Nathan, who had just reappeared.
Besides, the energy from the world had been exchanged with Nathan’s own energy.
Adding all the contracts together, the power ultimately entered Nathan’s body.
Nathan immediately activated his power, making sure that this power stayed inside his body. The contract reappeared a few minutes later, and the energy started to flow into the contract.
But since the contract was his power, he could make it disappear right away.
This meant only one Nathan Reckmoon existed in this world.
It looked like he had succeeded this time. The moment the contract disappeared, Nathan could feel that the power stopped moving as if it were settling down in his body.
A smile appeared on Nathan’s face. If this fifth divine rule was a success, it would mean Nathan could use that power.
