Creating Heavenly Laws - Chapter 293
The legacy secret art “Illusion to Reality” can transform the essence of life.
It seems it doesn’t significantly enhance combat power.
But it’s important to know that Lin Yuan has two primordial spirits.
Since awakening various physical divine abilities and continually absorbing the liquid from the mysterious gourd, the strength gap between Lin Yuan’s true body and his Yang Primordial Spirit and Yin Primordial Spirit has widened significantly.
His true body can almost crush the primordial spirit.
Not to mention the physical divine abilities, the internal world of over 100 million miles alone is enough to surpass the two primordial spirits by several orders.
The reason for this is that the primordial spirits lack flesh and cannot benefit from the enhancements brought by the physical divine abilities and the liquid from the mysterious gourd.
This gap will only grow larger in the future.
With more transmigrations, Lin Yuan will gain more physical divine abilities and the final two types of liquid from the mysterious gourd, which enhance his body and internal world.
But what if the two primordial spirits could transform from soul bodies into flesh bodies?
Once the two primordial spirits transform into flesh bodies, they can share Lin Yuan’s true body’s “Blood Rebirth” divine ability and absorb the mysterious liquid from the gourd to enhance themselves.
Strictly speaking, any of Lin Yuan’s primordial spirits, once transformed into flesh, would be nearly as powerful in pure combat as his true body.
Of course, this refers to pure combat power. The true body, possessing numerous treasures and weapons, would still surpass the two primordial spirits significantly.
Before becoming a core member of the Devil Jade Tower, Lin Yuan considered this issue and sought ways to enhance the combat power of his primordial spirit.
But there was no effective method.
Many evolvers in human civilization have the talent to convert between flesh and energy.
For example, in the Canglan Star tournament, the top ten contestant “Thunder God” could temporarily transform his body into thunder.
But this is flesh to energy conversion, as human civilization’s evolvers naturally possess flesh bodies, considering only flesh to energy transformation.
Not the reverse.
Even then, flesh to energy conversion has many hidden dangers, with short durations and higher difficulty for stronger bodies.
Lin Yuan’s desired energy to flesh conversion is even more difficult, involving more fundamental aspects.
Even with Unrivaled Insight, starting from scratch to deduce the method of energy to flesh conversion would likely take an enormous amount of time, beyond what Lin Yuan’s current level of life could handle.
But now.
The Devil Jade Tower owner’s “Illusion to Reality” legacy secret art perfectly meets Lin Yuan’s requirements.
This secret art allows the body to switch freely between reality and illusion, with no restrictions or energy loss.
This is simply…
Lin Yuan couldn’t fathom how the Devil Jade Tower owner achieved this.
Switching between reality and illusion, which are completely different essences of life, without energy consumption, and with unlimited transformation?
“This is ‘Illusion to Reality.'”
The humanoid statue Shen Ji confirmed Lin Yuan’s choice without further persuasion.
To him, even if Lin Yuan chose wrongly, it wouldn’t be a big problem. With his talent, missing one of the owner’s legacy secret arts wouldn’t matter much.
Buzz.
Shen Ji raised his hand, pointing his index finger at Lin Yuan’s forehead.
Instantly, Lin Yuan felt his consciousness falling, arriving in an infinite space.
In the center of the space stood a majestic figure.
Dressed in black robes, with indifferent eyes seemingly containing the rules of the Dao, the figure shifted between illusion and reality under Lin Yuan’s gaze.
Reality to illusion.
Illusion to reality.
Many details poured into Lin Yuan’s mind.
“You possess unrivaled insight, receiving mysterious information, deepening your understanding of reality-illusion transformation.”
“You possess unrivaled insight, receiving mysterious information, deepening your understanding of reality-illusion transformation.”
“You possess unrivaled insight, receiving mysterious information, deepening your understanding of reality-illusion transformation.”
“So that’s how it is.”
“Using this method for reality-illusion transformation?”
“Remarkable, the Devil Jade Tower owner is truly remarkable.”
On the Milky Way Main Star, Lin Yuan’s true body opened his eyes, smiling.
The “Illusion to Reality” legacy secret art wasn’t like “Interpretation of the Void”, which was recorded in text for later comprehension and study.
It was directly instilled in Lin Yuan’s mind, almost like personal guidance from the Devil Jade Tower owner.
“No wonder becoming a core member of the Devil Jade Tower grants only one legacy secret art; the cost of this transmission method is too high.”
Lin Yuan thought.
This method requires splitting a part of the soul essence to record the legacy secret art, achieving a visceral understanding.
The recorded legacy secret art also has a limit on transmission times. Lin Yuan even suspected that after transmitting “Illusion to Reality” to him, it might disappear.
Shen Ji’s repository of legacy secret arts might reduce from seven to six.
“I’ve almost completely comprehended the ‘Illusion to Reality’ legacy secret art.”
Lin Yuan thought.
If “Interpretation of the Void” had been transmitted this way, Lin Yuan might have comprehended the complete space rules instantly, rather than taking years to finally understand it.
“For now, I shouldn’t transform the primordial spirits. First, comprehend the final bit of fusion rules.”
Lin Yuan focused his thoughts, continuing to comprehend the fusion rules.
Transforming the primordial spirits into flesh bodies, even with the “Illusion to Reality” legacy secret art, would take several days. Lin Yuan wasn’t sure if this transformation would affect his breakthrough to the ninth rank.
To be safe, he decided to break through to the ninth rank first.
There would be plenty of time after reaching the ninth rank.
“Fusion rules.”
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, seriously attempting to comprehend.
He had already completed 99% of the fusion rules; the last bit was just a final leap.
Complete space rules are vast and endless, and Lin Yuan’s mastery, even if just one aspect, encompassing Tai Chi rules, dozens of cosmic powers, and a primordial-level cosmic power, was more than sufficient.
Lin Yuan concentrated, continuously attempting to fuse the rules.
Fusion rules aren’t successful on the first try; they require repeated failures to eventually find the correct fusion method.
With countless previous attempts and Unrivaled Insight, Lin Yuan soon successfully fused the final bit.
Buzz.
The power of the fully fused space rules, Tai Chi rules, and dozens of cosmic powers emerged before Lin Yuan.
This power was far superior to the previously semi-fused power, immensely stable and exuding a chilling aura.
“Fully fused?”
Lin Yuan was delighted, immediately sensing the changes in himself post-fusion.
Complete fusion of rules is a prerequisite for reaching the ninth rank.
Only with the new power from the fused rules can one transform the body, soul, mind-will, and internal world.
Transitioning from the eighth to the ninth rank is a gradual process. Once the prerequisites are met, there’s virtually no risk.
“Now?”
Lin Yuan sensed himself, the fused rules’ power rapidly spreading, integrating into every inch of his flesh, soul, and mind-will.
“The biggest change is in the internal world.”
Lin Yuan’s consciousness descended into his internal world.
Whoosh.
The vast, ocean-like world power surged.
Lin Yuan overlooked the immense world of over 100 million miles, squinting his eyes.
Compared to before the fusion of rules, the internal world’s size hadn’t changed.
But Lin Yuan clearly sensed the internal world undergoing a certain sublimation.
“Spatial layers, the internal world is generating spatial layers!”
Lin Yuan murmured.
The main world universe has nearly infinite spatial layers, each nurturing numerous secret realms and worlds.
Spatial layers represent the true foundation of a world; more layers mean a stronger foundation, like a complex maze.
Previously, Lin Yuan’s internal world had only the main space, no matter how vast, it was exceptionally ‘thin’.
But now, this ‘thinness’ was being filled.
“I can feel it, already starting to step into the ninth rank.”
With each new spatial layer in the internal world, Lin Yuan’s perception heightened.
“Typically, an eighth-rank peak evolver, after fully fusing rules, takes several months or years to transition, depending on the new power’s strength post-fusion.”
“The stronger the new power, the faster the transformation, and the quicker the transition to the ninth rank.”
“I just fused the rules and am already transitioning to the ninth rank. Is it because my fused power is too strong?”
Lin Yuan thought, not delaying or suppressing the breakthrough but naturally accelerating the transformation.
“Can’t break through on a planet.”
Lin Yuan’s figure disappeared from the Milky Way Main Star.
During the ninth-rank breakthrough, the internal world’s creation of spatial layers would pull on the external universe. Staying on the Milky Way Main Star could affect the main star.
The main star’s B-level modification couldn’t withstand the breakthrough’s aftershocks, especially since Lin Yuan’s breakthrough wasn’t typical.
In terms of internal world foundation, Lin Yuan’s ninth-rank breakthrough would be dozens or hundreds of times more impactful than normal.
Whoosh.
A desolate area in the Milky Way Star Domain.
Lin Yuan’s figure appeared.
He fully released his aura, spreading out like a giant celestial body.
Within millions, even billions of miles, or several light-years, everything was affected.
Hours later.
Lin Yuan’s surging aura began to stabilize.
“Have I crossed into the ninth rank?”
Lin Yuan stood in the starry sky, marveling at his power.
“My strength now is vastly superior to before the breakthrough.”
Lin Yuan sent a part of his consciousness into his internal world.
“Creating tens of thousands of spatial layers… The records of newly advanced ninth-rank evolvers in human civilization usually mention seven or eight layers initially.”
Lin Yuan thought.
Not to mention the internal world’s size.
Comparing the number of spatial layers alone:
A world with tens of thousands of layers.
A world with only a few layers.
The latter would inevitably be crushed by the former.
No, it’s beyond crushing.
They aren’t even on the same level.
The foundational difference is too vast.
“Unfortunately, whether it’s an eighth-rank’s ‘thin’ internal world or a ninth or tenth-rank’s multi-layered internal world, both rely on the main universe because they lack an independent ‘time’ rule.”
Lin Yuan thought.
Only by comprehending the time rules and integrating them into the internal world can the world become independent, controlling the flow of time within it.
An internal world without time rules relies on the main universe, sharing the same time flow.
Human Civilization, Central Star Domain.
On a large planet, the 3600th substation of the Observation Bureau was located.
The Human Observation Bureau is responsible for monitoring all abnormal energy fluctuations within human territory, a significant task.
Most of the universe’s regions are desolate starry skies, hard to monitor specifically. The Observation Bureau deduces what happens in these areas by observing general energy fluctuations to prepare accordingly.
“Sector 201376 shows no abnormal fluctuations.”
“Sector 309123 shows no abnormal fluctuations.”
“Sector 402371 shows no abnormal fluctuations.”
“Sector 812344 shows no abnormal fluctuations.”
In the Observation Bureau, staff were attentively receiving information from various star regions.
Team leader Wang Xin was also monitoring the virtual screen before him.
“Ten minutes left before off-duty.”
Wang Xin glanced at the time, relaxing slightly.
Suddenly.
At that moment.
The virtual screen flashed red warning text.
“Detected A-level energy fluctuation in Sector 723142.”
“Detected A-level energy fluctuation in Sector 723142.”
The warning sound caused a sudden shift in the Observation Bureau’s atmosphere.
Staff members became serious, intensifying their observations to locate the energy fluctuation’s source.
An A-level energy fluctuation is no joke; it could lead to severe disasters.
“Sector 723142 is the Milky Way Star Domain.”
Information about the star domain popped into Wang Xin’s mind.
“A-level energy fluctuation?” Wang Xin tensed.
An A-level energy fluctuation affects over ten light-years.
If it’s a natural phenomenon, it involves the collision of over a hundred massive celestial bodies.
If not natural, it indicates the arrival of dozens of ninth-rank alien invaders.
“Report immediately.”
“Enter Level 1 alert.”
Wang Xin looked grave.
Massive celestial collisions were manageable with proper post-event measures.
But if dozens of ninth-rank alien invaders…
Dozens of ninth-rank aliens could devastate dozens of star domains, even a star alliance.
“Trouble.”
Just as Wang Xin was about to contact the higher-ups for support, a solemn, clear voice spoke.
It was the Wisdom Goddess.
“Wang Xin, no need for alert.”
“No need for alert?” Wang Xin was puzzled.
An A-level energy fluctuation, and no alert?
Even if not an invasion, hundreds of massive celestial collisions still require alert and rapid assessment of the impact.
“The energy fluctuation is from a human evolver breaking through to the ninth rank, with no significant damage yet. No need for alert.”
The Wisdom Goddess explained.
“What?”
Wang Xin was stunned.
Eighth-rank to ninth-rank breakthrough?
As the team leader of the Central Star Domain Observation Substation, Wang Xin, though not very powerful, had a high perspective. An eighth-rank evolver breaking through to the ninth would, at most, cause fluctuations equivalent to a few stars.
Now the Wisdom Goddess told him—
The energy fluctuation equivalent to hundreds of massive celestial collisions.
Or the arrival of dozens of ninth-rank aliens.
Was merely the result of a breakthrough to the ninth rank?
Is this a breakthrough to the ninth rank?
