Chapter 502 Fusion of Laws and Changes in the Divine Kingdom, Leaving Chaos City
Chapter 502 Fusion of Laws and Changes in the Divine Kingdom, Leaving Chaos City
The 147 days spent in the cultivation chamber allowed Chu Yang to significantly advance his comprehension of the fundamental laws of time.
The progress rate has increased from approximately 25% to around 60%.
This speed is extremely exaggerated. However, although his understanding of the laws has improved, the perfection and improvement of his extreme sword technique has lagged far behind.
Over the next five years, Chu Yang focused directly on the Extreme Sword Technique, while also delving into the first three diagrams of the Boundless Chaos Stele, which he had already fully comprehended.
Prior to this, Chu Yang had already discovered that each image on the Boundless Chaos Stele contained a secret that pointed directly to the essence of time.
This is different from other Chaos Steles. It seems that each image on the Boundless Chaos Stele can form a complete secret technique on its own!
Chu Yang finally understood why so many cosmic venerables, in the process of comprehending the laws of time, did not choose the most suitable cosmic chaos monument, but instead came to comprehend the boundless chaos monument.
Although the Hand Seal Diagram has an infinite upper limit, without reaching the level of a Universe Lord, it is extremely difficult to fully comprehend it.
The purpose of those cosmic sages is probably to uncover the ultimate secrets of each picture!
By combining the many secret techniques in the theory of the universe, Chu Yang finally figured out the mystery of the first three pictures through repeated verification.
The secret techniques hidden in each picture have no name, and Chu Yang doesn't know if the techniques he has comprehended are the same as those of others; this cannot be verified for the time being.
So he simply named the three mysterious techniques according to his own understanding.
The secret art of eye drawing is called Zero!
The secret technique of the Arrow Diagram is called Swift!
The secret technique of the waterfall painting is called Reverse!
All three techniques are considered auxiliary special techniques, and their effect in actual combat is not significant, because anyone who has comprehended the higher-level fundamental laws to a certain extent can almost break through the effects of these three techniques.
However, when placed in the category of auxiliary techniques, these three unique skills can be considered to have reached the pinnacle in their respective fields!
Zero is the ultimate method of sealing!
By applying zero to a certain thing, Chu Yang can cause it to enter a state of time stagnation, achieving permanent existence.
"倏" means to accelerate the flow of time for something, and can be used to speed up the growth of some life forms.
Reversing time can cause something to rewind, and its uses are equally ingenious.
To be honest, Chu Yang was initially a little disappointed with these three unique skills, but after he thought about some of their special uses, he was pleasantly surprised.
Besides studying the three diagrams of the Boundless Chaos Cup, Chu Yang also perfected his Extreme Sword Technique to a certain extent during these five years.
Compared to his previous monotonous moves, he now incorporates the three laws he has comprehended into them, and creates a variety of variations by combining single and multiple laws.
It is foreseeable that once he comprehends another fundamental law of the universe, the variations in the Extreme Sword Technique will increase, and he may even evolve a universe with his sword!
Three more years passed, and Chu Yang focused intently on comprehending the fundamental laws of time, finally gaining a complete understanding of them!
The only regrettable thing is that Chu Yang failed to comprehend the profound secrets from the handprint diagram, or rather, the handprint diagram itself does not contain any profound secrets.
Unlike other Chaos Monuments, the Boundless Chaos Monument does not pursue the ultimate; its handprint diagram does not point to the pinnacle of the fundamental laws of time, but rather possesses infinite variations.
Everyone's understanding of the hand seal diagram will be different, and the more variations in understanding, the stronger one will be when applying the fundamental law of time to actual combat.
This is a time-law route that emphasizes offense and conquest. It is precisely because of its endless changes that it is said to have an infinite upper limit.
For eight years, Chu Yang never attempted to cross the Tongtian Bridge, because from the twenty-first floor onwards, understanding the fundamental laws of time was simply insufficient to cross the remaining eight floors.
To reiterate, this is a route that emphasizes offense and conquest; to pass the level, you need to have even more powerful offensive and conquest methods.
Chu Yang did not yet know how many variations the handprint diagram had, but even though he had comprehended the fundamental laws of time, he had only mastered three thousand six hundred variations.
In his view, however, these 3,600 variations are probably not even half of the mysteries of the handprint diagram!
Of course, based solely on the fundamental laws of time, there cannot be an infinite upper limit.
The reason for this statement is that, to this day, no one has been able to fully comprehend all the variations in the hand seal diagrams.
If you can't see the end, it will naturally be seen as endless.
Chu Yang walked out of the small building and headed straight for the city lord's mansion.
When the Lord of Chaos City saw Chu Yang in the Chaos Ruins, he was somewhat surprised.
Because he discovered that Chu Yang gave him a sense of elusiveness.
This feeling made the Lord of Chaos realize that in the entire primordial universe, there are probably very few people who can see through his junior brother.
"You've already begun the fusion of laws?" The Chaos City Lord stared at Chu Yang.
Chu Yang nodded and said, "I have gained some understanding of the fundamental law of wind and have tried to integrate it with the fundamental law of time. I have made some progress."
The Lord of Chaos clicked his tongue and said, "To be able to comprehend the fundamental laws of time in such a short time is already astonishing enough."
"I never imagined you'd actually comprehend the fundamental laws of wind, and even attempt to fuse these laws!"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "Compared to the fundamental laws of space, the fundamental laws of time are much easier to integrate with their corresponding subordinate fundamental laws."
"Moreover, the unique nature of the Boundless Chaos Stele also played a certain role."
The Lord of Chaos City nodded and said, "Indeed, the Boundless Chaos Stele contains great mysteries. The great being who left this Chaos Stele back then had an attainment in the fundamental laws of time that I am ashamed to admit."
Chu Yang's eyes flickered slightly. Even the Lord of Chaos City said so, so perhaps only the creator of the giant axe could be compared with the Lord of the Universe in terms of the fundamental laws of time.
The Lord of Chaos City suddenly laughed and said, "But speaking of which, that Lord of the Boundless Universe back then was quite a genius."
"After breaking through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, he did not pursue higher realms, nor did he focus too much on the fundamental laws of space. Instead, he set his sights on the fundamental laws of time!"
"Many people considered his path a wrong turn back then, but no one expected that he would actually pave a smooth and successful road!"
"His ultimate attack using the fundamental laws of time makes him virtually invincible among those of the same realm!"
"If he hadn't perished along the way, perhaps his legend would have continued..."
At this point, the Lord of Chaos City paused, then asked, "How many of the mysteries of the hand seal diagrams have you comprehended?"
"Three thousand six hundred kinds!" Chu Yang did not hide anything.
The Lord of Chaos City suddenly fell silent, and after a long while, he said softly, "What are your plans next?"
Chu Yang chuckled and said, "Within a hundred years, I will comprehend the fundamental laws of wind and light, and merge them with the fundamental laws of time!"
Seeing the smile on Chu Yang's face, the Chaos City Lord was at a loss for words.
This speed is outrageous, but if it were Chu Yang, it would be considered a bit slow.
In fact, the Lord of Chaos City originally planned to give Chu Yang a slight warning, so that he would not only focus on comprehending the fundamental laws of the universe.
A powerful person who has built up their strength through the understanding of laws is like a "hollow mountain"—it appears to be indestructible on the outside, but it is not.
But now it seems that Chu Yang has a detailed plan for his future and is not looking for quick success.
After holding back for a long time, the Chaos City Lord finally asked, "Aren't you planning to break through to the Universe Venerable realm?"
Chu Yang shook his head and said, "No rush."
He is indeed not in a hurry, or to be precise, he has no way to break through at the moment.
Ordinary immortal gods, after comprehending a superior fundamental law and its corresponding inferior fundamental law, can naturally break through to the level of a cosmic venerable.
But Chu Yang is different!
Because of the special nature of the four divine kingdoms, the difficulty for him to break through to the level of a universe venerable is countless times that of ordinary people!
After attempting to merge the fundamental laws of wind and time, Chu Yang discovered subtle changes occurring within the energy singularity.
One of the divine kingdoms is intertwined with the primordial laws of the universe after their fusion, and is undergoing a transformation.
In fact, he had already discovered the potential problem of the four divine kingdoms. That was, shortly after the breakthrough, the achievement of one of them intertwined with the power of the fundamental law of metal.
However, the other three divine kingdoms lacked the support of the fundamental laws of the universe, resulting in a state of chaos within them, much like a newly created world.
It now appears that, apart from the initial divine kingdom, the other three divine kingdoms seem to require the blessing of the primordial laws of the universe after fusion in order to gradually improve.
When these three divine kingdoms have completely transformed, that will be the time for him to break through to the level of a Universe Venerable.
As for what changes might occur at that time, Chu Yang had no idea.
But since these four divine kingdoms were created by the Soul Palace, there is no need to worry about any negative impact.
Besides the fusion of laws and the perfection of the ultimate sword technique, Chu Yang also has another cultivation direction that he attaches great importance to: the Zanpakuto (Soul-Slaying Blade).
He wanted to merge the original divine power of his Zanpakuto with the fundamental laws of the universe!
Although he has no clue at the moment, Chu Yang is certain that if he succeeds, it will bring him a pleasant surprise.
Returning to the small building where he had lived all these years, Chu Yang once again began his seclusion.
He didn't rush to choose the next Chaos Stele. Understanding the Chaos Stele isn't about having as many as possible; you can't bite off more than you can chew.
Before fully mastering all the mysteries of the handprint diagram, Chu Yang did not intend to study other Chaos Steles.
A hundred years is but a fleeting moment for immortal gods.
Many immortal gods even go into seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years, or even an entire era!
Just as Chu Yang had predicted, he comprehended the fundamental laws of wind and light, and successfully fused the fundamental laws of wind and time.
However, the process took less time than he had anticipated, only eighty years.
The reason for this is mainly because he had already figured out the hand seal diagram in advance!
Chu Yang originally thought that there were a great many mysteries in the hand seal diagram, but in the end he found that there were only 10,086 mysteries in all the evolutions of the hand seal diagram!
This number is actually quite large, and probably only Chu Yang would be dissatisfied. After all, since the Lord of the Boundless Universe left behind the Chaos Stele, no one has been able to fully comprehend it at the Universe Venerable level.
Moreover, Chu Yang is merely an Immortal!
With one less area to ponder, the speed at which one can comprehend the fundamental laws of the universe naturally increases significantly.
However, to Chu Yang's disappointment, the fusion of the Zanpakuto's original divine power with the fundamental laws of the universe was still a complete mystery.
He had grasped the key points many times, but each time he seemed to be missing something at the last moment, causing him to fail at the last hurdle.
Moreover, his comprehension of the power of Haotian and the power of reincarnation has remained stagnant, seemingly due to some kind of limitation.
This limitation stems from within himself, not from external factors.
However, it allowed him to combine the Void and Reincarnation, and through the origins of the two ultimate genes as a medium, to allow the original power of the two Zanpakuto to merge with each other.
In the world of Swallowed Star, the Void and Reincarnation are no longer of much use. It's not that the power level of the Zanpakuto is insufficient, but that the origin of the ultimate gene is too weak!
However, the combination of the two gave Chu Yang a powerful new ability!
Standing on the rooftop of the small building, Chu Yang stretched and muttered, "It's been almost a hundred years, it's time to go out and take a look around..."
…………
The City Lord's Mansion, Chaos Ruins.
"Finally decided to go out for a walk?" The Chaos City Lord looked at Chu Yang with a smile.
Chu Yang nodded and said, "Let's take a trip around the universe first, and then prepare to go to the extraterrestrial battlefield."
The Chaos City Lord's eyes narrowed. "You're already on the alien races' kill list. Once you show your face on the extraterrestrial battlefield, you'll inevitably become the target of everyone's attacks!"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "If it weren't for that, how could it serve as a training opportunity?"
The Lord of Chaos City laughed heartily, "You're quite confident!"
"Since you're ready to leave, it's time to hand over the spaceship the company promised you."
With that, he waved his hand lightly, and a dark purple triangular spaceship appeared on the battlefield.
The spaceship is equilateral triangle, with each side about 180 meters long, and the edges are extremely sharp, covered with secret patterns.
"This is a spaceship custom-built for you by Virtual Universe Corporation; it has reached the pinnacle of G-class spaceships!"
The Lord of Chaos City explained, "Below the level of a Cosmic Venerable, almost no one can break through the spaceship's defenses. Even a Cosmic Venerable would have to expend considerable effort to destroy this spaceship."
"The spaceship wasn't equipped with long-range weapons, but the cutting force at its edges was enough to cleave through an immortal god's body!"
"In terms of speed, this spaceship has reached its limit, which is enough to meet your needs in any situation."
"The core runes of the spaceship combine the fundamental laws of time and space. I personally inscribed them on it, and it can be activated three times."
"This secret rune allows you to break through any spatial barrier!"
"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Chu Yang's eyes lit up slightly, and then he unceremoniously put the spaceship into his divine kingdom.
"Go! Come find me again when you have fused the fundamental laws of wood and time!" The Lord of Chaos waved his hand, and then Chu Yang and Zhou Shen's spacetime was disrupted.
The next moment, he appeared outside the city lord's mansion.
Chu Yang waved towards the city lord's mansion, then strode out of the city! (End of Chapter)
