Creating Heavenly Laws

"Milky Way?

"Many of the Great Sovereigns on the field exchanged glances.

The title of "Great Sovereign" always carried specific meaning.

The "Redleaf" in Redleaf Great Sovereign’s title signified walking the path of both Chaos Fire and Chaos Life.

The "Qingfen" in Qingfen Great Sovereign’s name also, to some extent, revealed the path he walked.

But Milky Way?

"Milky Way Great Sovereign?

"A smile appeared on Redleaf Great Sovereign’s face.

He didn’t question Lin Yuan about why he chose that title.

Every Great Sovereign had their own secrets.

Since Lin Yuan was willing to use "Milky Way" as his title, he wouldn’t ask more.

"Yeah.

"Lin Yuan nodded.

He chose the name "Milky Way" mainly to commemorate his life on Earth before his transmigration.

The true self in the Chaos Void, along with titles like Milky Way Star Lord and Milky Way Strongest One, came from the same sentiment.

As for whether the name "Milky Way Great Sovereign" would expose his true identity—The Chaos Void and this Source World weren’t even in the same dimensional space.

Crossing dimensions was something even a thirteenth-rank time lifeform would find difficult.

Besides, even if one could cross over, "Milky Way" was far too common a name.

"I believe that the name Milky Way Great Sovereign will one day resound throughout the ancient kingdoms nearby.

"Redleaf Great Sovereign smiled as he spoke.

The other Great Sovereigns were slightly surprised at those words.

They could tell Redleaf Great Sovereign had high regard for Lin Yuan.

Resound through the ancient kingdoms nearby?

That required at least peak-level Great Sovereign strength.

And peak Great Sovereign?

Not every Great Sovereign could reach that stage in their cultivation.

In the eyes of most Great Sovereigns, Lin Yuan was just a newly ascended one.

Time passed.

Several months went by in the blink of an eye.

With the exchange and spread of information among nearly twenty Great Sovereigns, the name "Milky Way Great Sovereign" gradually spread.

The Great Sovereigns all had their own social circles, and Lin Yuan used this war as an opportunity to show his face.

With the backing of Redleaf Great Sovereign and Qingfen Marquis, many of the other Great Sovereigns gave Lin Yuan some consideration as well.

Lin Yuan didn’t care much about that.

Even without using his divine ability "Sunborn Genesis," his true combat power was probably close to the likes of Redleaf Great Sovereign at peak level.

And as time passed, Lin Yuan’s strength continued to grow almost by the moment.

But he had no intention of revealing it.

Before fully comprehending the divine imprint of "Sunborn Genesis," he chose to remain low-key and steady.

Inside the City Lord's mansion.

Qingfen Marquis’s expression was serious.

All the Great Sovereigns, including Lin Yuan, were gathered there.

"The Zimeng Domain is likely about to launch an attack.

"Qingfen Marquis said gravely.

He had been monitoring the border at all times and vaguely sensed unusual movements from Zimeng’s war machines.

"It was bound to happen sooner or later.

""Let’s see who dares to push their way in.

"None of the Great Sovereigns were surprised.

Zimeng Domain had been massing troops at the border, so launching an attack at this time was only natural.

After all, this gathering of Great Sovereigns was exactly for this day.

"Redleaf, Axe—you two are the strongest.

When the time comes, Sovereign Manyue and Sovereign Divine Luan will be yours to handle.

"Qingfen Marquis looked toward Redleaf and Axe Great Sovereigns.

These two were Qingfen Marquis’s close friends.

They had come to help resist the Zimeng invasion at his invitation.

"Don’t worry.

"Redleaf and Axe nodded.

Sovereigns Manyue and Divine Luan were the peak Great Sovereigns on Zimeng’s side, terrifying in strength.

Among everyone present, only Redleaf, Axe, and Qingfen Marquis himself could reliably counter them.

But Qingfen Marquis had to command the entire battlefield, and wouldn’t enter the fight unless absolutely necessary—so the task fell to the other two.

"And everyone else, do your best to hold your ground.

If anything unexpected happens, or if you encounter an uncontrollable variable, report it to me immediately.

"Qingfen Marquis looked at the rest of the Great Sovereigns.

For a thousand years, they had simulated every possible scenario.

Each had already chosen the opponent they would face.

"Milky Way—your opponent should be Sovereign Leige.

Are you confident?

"Qingfen Marquis looked at Lin Yuan, asking seriously.

Sovereign Leige was also a newly advanced Great Sovereign, having reached this realm two hundred thousand years ago.

For Great Sovereigns, two hundred thousand years wasn’t long—Leige still counted as newly ascended.

"I’m confident.

"Lin Yuan nodded.

The border between Qingfen and Zimeng Domains was vast.

Each Great Sovereign had to hold a section and command numerous war machines.

Lin Yuan’s post was on the outer edge, where veteran and peak Great Sovereigns rarely attacked.

"Good.

"Qingfen Marquis trusted Lin Yuan completely.

In his eyes, Lin Yuan had the blood of a core imperial lineage—he could challenge a Great Sovereign even while still at the Dominance stage.

Besides, Qingfen Marquis would also be monitoring Lin Yuan and could assist at once if anything unexpected happened.

"This war must be won.

"Qingfen Marquis looked at all the Great Sovereigns and solemnly declared, "When we win, I will reward you all generously.

"If Qingfen Domain fell, the one most responsible would be "Chisong King.

"But the one who would suffer the greatest loss was undoubtedly Qingfen Marquis.

After all, Qingfen Domain was his fief.

If it was conquered, all the foundations he had built over countless years would vanish overnight.

That was why, during the war preparations, Qingfen Marquis had done everything possible to leverage his connections and invite peak-level Great Sovereigns like Redleaf and Axe.

In fact, "Chisong King" had also dispatched several Great Sovereign-level powerhouses to assist.

Chaos Void.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.

An incarnation of his consciousness descended into his internal universe.

Buzz.

Buzz.

Buzz.

His internal universe was transforming constantly.

The second layer of Infinite Void was slowly reshaping it.

Back when he was at the Path-Clearing stage, Lin Yuan’s internal universe was only several tens of millions of light-years across.

A Chaos Venerable, however, could have an internal universe spanning hundreds of billions of light-years.

In terms of visible scale, the difference was astronomical.

But in actual substance, they were nearly equal.

This was due to Infinite Void’s enhancements and transformations.

In truth, while cultivating Infinite Void, Lin Yuan’s internal universe was constantly shrinking.

But the rate of shrinkage was slower than its expansion, so overall, it still appeared to be growing.

Now, his internal universe had a diameter exceeding ten billion light-years.

The power it contained could easily crush an ordinary Chaos Venerable.

"Hmm?

"While cultivating the second layer of Infinite Void, Lin Yuan suddenly paused, as if he sensed something.

"Sunborn Genesis!

"With a thought, a flame suddenly appeared before him.

Right now, most of the focus of his true body in the Source World was on comprehending the divine imprint of "Sunborn Genesis.

" Even without fully mastering it, Lin Yuan could still partially recreate it.

Of course, not for long.

"What if I used this divine ability to enhance my internal universe?

"Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up.

The key to "Sunborn Genesis" wasn’t destruction—it was creation.

What is creation?

It is the birth of a world.

And why could it create a world?

Wherever the blazing sun shines becomes dominion—becomes territory.

If he could forge an eternal blazing sun within his internal universe, and let its radiance shine upon all, what kind of transformation would that bring?

Lin Yuan’s internal universe was already being cultivated with the thirteenth-rank inheritance Infinite Void.

If he could further enhance it with a power that only thirteenth-rank time lifeforms could grasp—Sunborn Genesis—If the two thirteenth-rank forces could be fused together...

Lin Yuan’s heart surged.

He immediately began experimenting.

Because he hadn’t fully comprehended the divine imprint of "Sunborn Genesis," the flame he conjured couldn’t last long.

It would extinguish quickly.

But even so, Lin Yuan could already see the blazing sunlight's potential effect on his internal universe.

By the jade gourd’s side.

The red-dressed childlike girl was also watching the changes in his internal universe.

"Huh?

"She seemed to sense something, surprise flashing across her face.

She clearly felt the transformation speed of Lin Yuan’s internal universe slowing down.

Which meant Lin Yuan was deliberately slowing his cultivation of Infinite Void.

This made her curious.

Infinite Void was a thirteenth-rank inheritance.

For a twelfth-rank lifeform, the improvement it offered was beyond extraordinary.

So why would Lin Yuan slow his progress now?

Zimeng Domain.

Zimeng Marquis and the other Great Sovereigns were also completing final war preparations.

"Everyone, once we break through Qingfen Domain, Lingwei’s prestige will soar.

He’ll become a contender for the throne—and our rewards will go without saying.

"Zimeng Marquis’s words were brief, but they ignited the hearts of all the Great Sovereigns.

As powerhouses, they clearly understood why Lingwei had initiated this war.

It was to become Emperor of the Ancient Kingdom.

Only by expanding the kingdom’s territory could he earn enough renown to become a viable candidate.

As long as one became a candidate, they had a shot at the throne.

And if Lingwei ultimately succeeded and ascended the throne, how could these Great Sovereigns not be generously rewarded?

"Now, follow me to the battlefield.

"Zimeng Marquis led the Great Sovereigns through a space-time passage and arrived at the border front in an instant.

"His Highness Lingwei is watching this battle—do not hold back," Zimeng Marquis reminded.

Whether in Qingfen or Zimeng Domains, the true trump cards—the strongest forces—were all still observing, not yet entering the fray.

Lingwei would adjust his strategy based on how the war progressed.

"Stick to the plan and target your assigned opponents.

"Zimeng Marquis spoke.

Just like Qingfen Marquis had designated opponents for his side’s Great Sovereigns, Zimeng had done the same.

"My target is the Ding Seven sector...

The one stationed there is Milky Way Great Sovereign?

A newly advanced one from a thousand years ago?

"Sovereign Leige was a lean, elderly man.

At this moment, he gazed out at the battlefield.

The warfront was vast, but the aura of a Great Sovereign was unmistakable.

Leige quickly locked onto his opponent.

"Easy.

"A smile appeared on Leige’s face.

On the surface, he had entered the Great Sovereign realm just over two hundred thousand years ago and still counted as newly advanced.

But in truth, he had stepped into this realm over a million years ago.

He had simply kept it hidden.

"With my current strength, dealing with a new Great Sovereign like Milky Way will be a walk in the park.

""When the time comes, I’ll be able to put on quite the show in front of His Highness Lingwei.

"Sovereign Leige knew Lingwei was watching the battlefield.

If he performed well, his standing in the prince’s eyes would be forever changed....
