Creating Heavenly Laws

Mysterious Emperor Universe.
Lin Yuan was preparing to leave.
His journey into the Mysterious Emperor Universe had essentially come to an end.
Moments ago, the Mysterious Sovereign had personally gathered all the treasures and rare items from every region of the universe and handed them over to Lin Yuan.
There was no longer any need for Lin Yuan to search on his own.
Almost everything of value in the entire Mysterious Emperor Universe was now in Lin Yuan's possession.
Suddenly—“Hmm?
”Lin Yuan’s expression shifted slightly.
The space-time before him rippled and twisted.
From within that warped space, numerous treasures tumbled out, floating in front of him.
“These treasures?
”Lin Yuan’s pupils narrowed slightly.
There weren’t many of them—only about a dozen—but the auras they gave off made his heart tremble.
“A Life Godstone?
”He looked at one crystalline stone.
It was only the size of a fist, incomparable to the nearly three-meter-tall Life Godstone he had previously acquired.
Yet, for some reason, the moment he laid eyes on this stone, he instinctively felt it was far more precious.
“This isn’t a Life Godstone.
This is a Life Origin Stone!
”The thought rose in Lin Yuan’s mind.
Life Godstone.
Life Origin Stone.
Only one word apart—but fundamentally different.
If, in the Sea of Life—the chaotic void’s mysterious realm—Life Godstones would occasionally fall from the sky, then the Life Origin Stone was the very foundation of the Sea of Life.
Their relationship was like child and parent.
As long as the parent exists, countless children can be born.
Because of this, Life Origin Stones had virtually never been seen in the chaotic void.
It was only because Lin Yuan had received intelligence from the Devil Jade Tower’s master that he recognized what this crystal truly was.
“That Life Origin Star in this universe must have been formed from a small piece of Life Origin Stone.
Only with the surrounding environmental rules could it birth Life Godstones… it’s like a miniature Sea of Life.
”Lin Yuan thought silently.
To nurture something as rare as a Life Godstone—even a Supreme Saint who could define rules would struggle to do so without external aid.
Otherwise, with so many Supreme Saints having existed throughout chaotic void history, if they all began cultivating Life Godstones, they wouldn’t be so scarce—even Chaos Great Saints could rarely obtain them.
So far, the only place Lin Yuan knew that could produce them was within the Mysterious Emperor Universe.
And the external force needed to nurture Life Godstones was the Life Origin Stone.
However—To create an environment capable of birthing such stones, the Life Origin Stone had to fully merge with the universe and form the special laws of a Sea of Life.
At that point, the stone became inseparable from the universe.
Even someone like the Mysterious Sovereign who had created the universe wouldn’t be able to extract the Life Origin Star and turn it back into a stone.
But this Life Origin Stone floating in front of Lin Yuan…He stared at it as if beholding an endless supply of Life Godstones.
Beyond that, the other treasures that had dropped alongside it were also unimaginably rare.
Primordial Ore Crystal.
Ninth Heaven Thunder Core.
Soil of All Sources.
Each was no less precious than the Life Origin Stone—artifacts that originated from mysterious places, even forming the very foundation of those lands.
These so-called mysterious places were all linked to thirteenth-rank beings.
Throughout countless eras, many Invincible Supreme Saints had emerged in the chaotic void.
Though they had the power to force their way into such places, they didn’t dare act recklessly—They feared attracting the attention of the thirteenth-rank time-beings behind those places.
Even if that possibility was minuscule, none dared gamble.
Unlike regular Supreme Saints, Invincible Supreme Saints understood just how terrifying time-beings truly were.
But the Mysterious Sovereign?
He had forcefully broken out of the time loop, and was fated to perish.
Naturally, he didn’t care whether thirteenth-rank time-beings noticed him.
So he dared to go to those mysterious places and demand tributes.
And the spirits of those places knew this.
No matter how unwilling they were, as long as they feared a desperate battle with the Mysterious Sovereign, they could only grit their teeth and hand things over.
They were also unwilling to seek help from the time-beings behind them.
“Your Majesty…”Lin Yuan looked at the array of treasures before him, fully aware that they were gifts from the Mysterious Sovereign.
He had wondered what kind of “friends” the Mysterious Sovereign had gone to visit—never expecting it would be those ancient, mysterious lands.
“With these treasures, my inner universe should become even more complete.
”Lin Yuan gathered the dozen or so rare items and thought to himself.
These were the very treasures that formed the mysterious places of the chaotic void.
Though on a smaller scale, they were identical in essence.
Lin Yuan instinctively felt they would benefit his inner universe.
The thirteenth-rank inheritance, Infinite Void, aimed to transform one’s inner universe into a colossal realm rivaling the chaotic void itself.
Since the chaotic void had such mysterious places, replicating them inside his own universe was surely a step in the right direction.
Especially the special laws those lands embodied—they could be pivotal for the inner universe.
Even if they had no direct effect—Just creating such environments in his universe would allow him to periodically harvest treasures that even Chaos Great Saints could only hope to encounter.
It would be a gold mine.
No—an entire forest of gold mines.
Just as Lin Yuan’s thoughts drifted—He felt a subtle tremor within his soul, as if one of the evolution paths he had once cultivated had completely lost its final source.
“The Mysterious Emperor evolution path…”Lin Yuan fell silent.
Though it wasn’t his main path, he had studied it once.
When he first entered the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm and spoke with the realm spirit, he had wondered why this path had never produced an ultimate being.
Given the realm’s inheritances, creating a twelfth-rank lifeform shouldn’t have been too difficult.
Even if it took several attempts, surely one would’ve succeeded eventually.
But ever since the Mysterious Sovereign attempted the thirteenth rank, no twelfth-rank being had ever emerged from this path again.
Eventually, Lin Yuan had realized—the Mysterious Sovereign wasn’t truly dead.
As long as the final end of the path still existed, no one else could ascend through it.
And he had been right.
Trapped in the time loop, the Mysterious Sovereign hadn’t truly died.
In fact, throughout history, no perfected Chaos-stage being who attempted the thirteenth rank had ever truly died—at most, they were lost in the loop.
But just now—Lin Yuan sensed that the suppression had finally vanished.
The Mysterious Emperor evolution path was now free to produce new ultimate beings.
And this wasn’t something he sensed through causality.
With the Mysterious Sovereign’s power, he could’ve easily blocked all causal ties.
Not even Lin Yuan would’ve been able to detect a trace.
“If I ever reach the thirteenth rank—become a time-being—I’ll bring you back.
”Lin Yuan stood in silence for a while, then thought, “And I’ll bring your senior sister back with you.
”Thirteenth-rank lifeforms didn’t need external artifacts to resurrect others.
Any being who had ever existed in the chaotic void’s timeline could be revived.
Though the Mysterious Sovereign perished by forcibly escaping the loop, he had once existed.
Therefore, resurrection was possible.
With the power of a time-being, reviving someone who had died in the past was not difficult.
The Mysterious Sovereign had refused to forget his senior sister to break the loop because that kind of forgetting was absolute—it erased all emotion.
Put simply, if he had ascended that way, even if his memories returned, his feelings would not.
His senior sister would mean nothing to him.
He would never bring her back.
Whoosh.
Lin Yuan stepped toward the entrance of the Mysterious Emperor Universe—and passed through.
Outside the universe.
Lin Yuan’s figure reappeared.
The surrounding Chaos Venerables looked at him with respect, though they weren’t particularly surprised.
Others had also emerged from the universe earlier.
What they truly cared about was the fate of Hun Xiao and Yu Lin.
As for Lin Yuan?
Aside from the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws, no one else knew he had received the Mysterious Sovereign’s legacy.
No one could accurately guess what he had gained.
And with the Mysterious Sovereign’s appearance, it was assumed he had taken all the treasures for himself.
Lin Yuan, a Chaos Great Saint—even one on the verge of invincibility—likely came out empty-handed.
As for why Lin Yuan had survived while Hun Xiao and Yu Lin perished?
Ordinary Chaos Venerables might wonder—but Chaos Great Saints and Supreme Saints understood perfectly.
Those two had led the charge to destroy the Mysterious Emperor Lineage.
The Mysterious Sovereign striking them down was only natural.
Lin Yuan?
He had never been involved in that.
His entry into the universe was no different from any other Chaos Venerable.
The Mysterious Sovereign hadn’t targeted them at all.
“Milky Way Great Saint.
”Lin Yuan looked around and saw a nervous Chaos Venerable approaching—Venerable Shenfeng.
Before the universe had opened, this Venerable had tried to form an alliance with Lin Yuan to compete with others inside.
Lin Yuan had refused, and at the time, Shenfeng had been displeased—thinking Lin Yuan lacked vision.
But after witnessing Lin Yuan’s strength outside the Mysterious Emperor Universe—comparable to Heiyao and Dual-Source Saints—Venerable Shenfeng had grown terrified.
He had immediately withdrawn from the competition and fled far away, terrified Lin Yuan would take revenge afterward.
Later—Upon hearing of Lin Yuan’s feats within the universe—subduing eight Chaos Great Saints alone, and even forcing someone like Dual-Source to submit—Venerable Shenfeng, who had already fled far from the area, didn’t dare move again.
Had Lin Yuan merely been a regular Chaos Great Saint, he might’ve had a chance to escape.
But with Lin Yuan nearing invincibility among Chaos Saints, subduing others of his level was effortless—never mind a mere Venerable like him.
Even if he ran, would it matter?
Realizing this, Shenfeng had swallowed his fear and returned to the universe’s edge.
“I was so blind before, to speak to you in that way…”He produced his most prized possessions with a flip of his hand.
“I deserve whatever punishment you give.
But please… have mercy.
”He had already accepted that he might lose this body.
As long as he could lessen Lin Yuan’s wrath, it would be worth it.
“I know.
You can go.
”Lin Yuan gave him a glance.
Truthfully, he hadn’t even spared this Venerable a thought.
“Thank you, Saint!
”Overjoyed, Shenfeng left his treasures behind and retreated respectfully.
Lin Yuan glanced at the items.
For him, they weren’t much—but even crumbs were food.
He accepted them.
In the next moment—Lin Yuan vanished.
In a twisted space-time—Lin Yuan stood, facing a massive eye.
“Well?
”“Did you gain anything decent this time?
”The Eye of Ten Thousand Laws looked at Lin Yuan casually.
It knew he had inherited the Mysterious Sovereign’s legacy, and likely encountered him in person after he broke free of the time loop.
Still, the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws wasn’t particularly interested.
Even Invincible Supreme Saints were nothing special in the eyes of such beings.
What it didn’t know—was that the Mysterious Sovereign had left Lin Yuan a thirteenth-rank weapon.
With it, Lin Yuan could even pose a threat to these special entities.
“Yes”Lin Yuan nodded, offering no further details.
“Good.
”The Eye nodded.
“I’ll send you back now.
”This void domain was an unknown distance from the Guming Chaos Continent.
Even with Lin Yuan’s newfound strength, it would’ve taken decades—or longer—to return on his own.
“Thank you.
”Lin Yuan replied.
Guming Chaos Continent.
Venerable Guming hesitated.
He wasn’t sure if he should visit Lin Yuan.
He had already heard of Lin Yuan’s feats—crushing multiple Chaos Great Saints inside the Mysterious Emperor Universe.
That alone made him want to pay his respects.
But he didn’t want to disturb him either.
“It should be fine.
”After much thought, Venerable Guming decided to go.
After all, a Chaos Great Saint was currently residing on his continent.
If he ignored that, it might be seen as disrespectful.
Though he had visited Lin Yuan many times before, this time was different.
Now, Lin Yuan had fully revealed his status as a Great Saint.
Before long—Venerable Guming arrived outside the "Fragment World" of the Star Tear Realm.
“Venerable.
”The strongest of human civilization—Xuanyuan and Xia Qin—came out to greet him.
Though Venerable Guming had always acted humbly toward Lin Yuan, Xuanyuan and the others never looked down on him.
After all, he was still a Chaos Venerable.
“I’d like to request an audience with the Milky Way Great Saint.
”Venerable Guming stated his purpose.
“The Milky Way… Great Saint?
”Xuanyuan and Xia Qin hadn’t paid much attention at first—Venerable Guming often came to visit Lin Yuan.
But then they froze.
What did he just call him?
Milky Way Great Saint?
Xuanyuan and Xia Qin were stunned....
