Creating Heavenly Laws
Chapter Summary

After refining all the core heavenly pillars and gaining full control of the treasure land, Lin Yuan's consciousness soared, arriving at the "connection point" between the treasure land and the Source World.
The relationship between a treasure land and the Source World was like that of fruit and the mother tree.
A newly born treasure land was akin to a fruit about to fall from the tree—on the verge of detaching, yet still faintly connected.
Through this connection, one could peer into the vast source of the Source World.
Only freshly born treasure lands allowed for this.
Those that had existed for countless ages—even first-class treasure lands—were already completely severed from the mother tree.
The Black Jade Nest and the Emerald Cliff, both guarded by Lin Yuan, were such examples—essentially fully independent.
“Source World’s source?
”Lin Yuan looked into the distance, where an irregular rift hovered, linking to the deepest parts of the Source World.
Only after fully refining and mastering a newly born treasure land did one gain the chance to glimpse the Source World’s source.
In every instance of a treasure land’s birth, the Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns of the ancient kingdoms had fought fiercely for entry not just for the treasures within...
But also for this.
The source of the Source World operated on such a grand scale that even the Ancestors of the ancient kingdoms could not fully replicate its fluctuations.
For Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns, observing it was an unprecedented accumulation of insight.
Lin Yuan gazed at the irregular rift, peering into its depths.
In an instant, a profound sense of shock surged in his heart as he gained a concrete understanding of how the Source World’s source operated.
To Lin Yuan’s vision, the source appeared as a boundlessly tall “giant tree,” each leaf swaying gently, imbued with countless ripples of great Dao laws.
The leaves resonated with each other, intertwining to form the vast expanse of heaven and earth.
The “giant tree” was so vast and profound it defied description.
Even though Lin Yuan was now recognized as the Invincible Sovereign—the most powerful in the history of the six ancient kingdoms—before the “giant tree,” he still felt like a speck of dust.
He even had the sense that, compared to the tree, even the exalted Ancestors were but tiny specks.
Lin Yuan had only observed for a moment, yet countless flashes of insight poured into his mind.
[Your Insight is Unrivaled.
Observing the manifestation of the unknown source has greatly enhanced your understanding of the great Dao laws.
]“So this is the Source World’s source?
”Lin Yuan took a deep breath, gazing almost in fascination at the shifting rift.
And as he delved deeper into observation...
The image of the Source World’s source began to shift.
At first, it appeared as a vast giant tree, its branches and leaves forming the heavens.
Then, as Lin Yuan began to comprehend more, it transformed into a winding mountain range, endless and spanning all of spacetime.
Looking closer, it became a long river flowing through past, present, and future—eternal, indestructible.
Eventually, when Lin Yuan reached another level of realization, it shifted back into the form of an infinite “giant tree.
”The image Lin Yuan perceived of the Source World’s source depended on his own state of mind.
It had no fixed form—rather, it possessed countless forms.
“Marvelous...
absolutely marvelous.
”Lin Yuan murmured to himself.
In past treasure land births, the Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns of the kingdoms had similarly observed the Source World’s source after claiming such lands.
But none of them possessed Lin Yuan’s level of insight.
Even when witnessing the same scene, what they understood was vastly different.
It was like being struck on the head by an apple—some could grasp the laws of motion, others would only feel the pain.
With his Unrivaled Insight, Lin Yuan's harvest from observing the true operations of the Source World’s source was utterly beyond comparison.
“This is the greatest fortune I’ve gained from this treasure land contest.
”Lin Yuan’s eyes sparkled.
The treasure land itself and its rare treasures were external gains.
But witnessing the operations of the Source World’s source directly enhanced his own comprehension.
As he immersed himself in his observation, Lin Yuan also noticed the irregular rift slowly shrinking.
“The link between the treasure land and the Source World is weakening.
”He understood immediately.
“Based on past experiences and the speed of the rift’s closure, I should have about ten thousand years to comprehend it.
”Lin Yuan estimated mentally.
Ten thousand years was just a blink for any Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign.
Some of them could nap longer than that.
But to Lin Yuan, this was more than enough.
Not every Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign got this opportunity.
It wasn’t about strength—even the strongest couldn’t comprehend it without encountering a treasure land of this level.
In just a few thousand years since descending into the Source World, Lin Yuan had already witnessed a treasure land’s birth—and had been in position to contest it on behalf of the Liyang Kingdom.
That alone was extraordinarily fortunate.
“I can feel my comprehension of the Spacetime Fusion Law improving rapidly.
Within a thousand years, I’ll reach the peak of the ninth level.
Within ten thousand, I may even break past the current limit.
”While watching the rift, Lin Yuan’s thoughts moved swiftly.
The ninth level of Spacetime Fusion was typically only achievable by Supreme Saints.
The peak of the ninth level?
That was the domain of Invincible Supreme Saints.
Though Lin Yuan’s combat strength far exceeded that of any Invincible Supreme Saint, that was due to his mastery of the Tao of Tai Chi, his internal universe, and other techniques.
In pure Spacetime Fusion comprehension, he had only just stepped into the ninth level.
That was mainly because he had only broken into it a few hundred years ago, and much of his focus had been on the Chaos Tai Chi path.
Hence his slower progress in this area.
Of course, “slower” was only in comparison to his other improvements.
To Supreme Saints and top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns, Lin Yuan’s rate of advancement in Spacetime Fusion comprehension was still beyond imagination.
“To surpass the ninth level of Spacetime Fusion...
”Lin Yuan couldn’t help feeling anticipation.
Until now, in both the Chaos Void and the Source World, the ninth-level peak had always been the limit for those below the thirteenth rank.
The sole exception was His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign.
But the Mysterious Sovereign had only advanced further thanks to his own accumulation—and the thirteenth-rank weapon Heavenly Void Cauldron.
In truth, before obtaining the Heavenly Void Cauldron, the Mysterious Sovereign had already reached the ninth-level peak.
The cauldron only gave him the final push.
The key was still his own foundation.
“Comprehension beyond the ninth level of Spacetime Fusion will have a profound effect on my Chaos Laws.
”Lin Yuan pondered silently.
Spacetime originated from Chaos—so improving one also enhanced the other.
At his current level, his cultivation systems resonated in harmony.
Improving one aspect would benefit all the others.
In the treasure land.
While comprehending the source of the Source World, Lin Yuan also projected an incarnation to collect the golden mist.
The golden mist was a rare treasure unique to this land, hidden in secluded areas.
Despite the Sovereigns of the six ancient kingdoms spending a thousand or two thousand years searching, a large portion still hadn’t been found.
Now that Lin Yuan had refined every core pillar and fully controlled the treasure land, locating the hidden golden mist was as easy as turning over his hand.
“These weapons, artifacts, and treasures...
”Lin Yuan flipped his right hand, and a huge pile of loot appeared—left behind by the Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns who had fallen to him.
Because it was a treasure land contest, none of the Sovereigns had brought many valuable items.
But the sheer number made up for it.
Counting the primary battle bodies he’d slain, Lin Yuan had likely taken down over a hundred Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns.
Only seventy or eighty had entered the contest, but each had brought multiple battle bodies.
Over a hundred main battle bodies—each with at least weapons—meant Lin Yuan had acquired over a hundred Sovereign-tier weapons.
An enormous fortune.
“Unfortunately, these Sovereigns were all high-ranking figures.
They couldn’t allow themselves to be captured alive, so I couldn’t ransom them.
”Lin Yuan shook his head.
If he could have, he’d have preferred not to kill their battle bodies—just keep them for ransom.
But anyone capable of reaching the level of Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign had their pride.
They would rather die than be captured in defeat.
Especially Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign.
As a strongest Heavenly Sovereign, history had never seen one taken prisoner.
“Golden mist.
”Among the vast trove of loot, golden mist was naturally included—produced by the treasure land, and inevitably collected by every Sovereign to some extent.
After storing the mist, Lin Yuan turned to the final batch of loot—The heritage weapons of the ancient kingdoms.
Before the contest began, each ancient kingdom had granted some of their top-tier Sovereigns powerful heritage weapons.
These came from their Ancestors.
Though not quite thirteenth-rank, their activation requirements were far lower.
“Grand Ancient Void Kingdom’s heritage weapons...
”Lin Yuan’s gaze sharpened as he looked at a portion of the weapons.
Most had come from Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign—he had been the Grand Ancient Void Kingdom’s main hope in this contest and had carried the greatest arsenal.
“Ancestor of the Grand Ancient Void Kingdom...
”Lin Yuan stared at a wooden sword.
It looked crude, but held a terrifyingly sharp essence.
If activated, even he would need to avoid its edge.
“Was this sword carved by the Ancestor himself?
” Lin Yuan speculated.
He couldn’t even identify the source or nature of the sharp aura—it was best not to touch it.
“These heritage weapons can only be activated by their original kingdom’s warriors.
I can’t use them even if I own them.
”Lin Yuan sighed.
Each one was imbued with the aura of a specific Ancestor.
Only their descendants could activate them.
“I’ll trade them for other treasures.
”After thinking for a moment, Lin Yuan made his decision.
Though useless to him, the ancient kingdoms would undoubtedly want them back.
Letting such weapons fall into outsider hands was a disgrace.
He could use this to make “unreasonable” demands.
There were still two hundred years left in the contest.
In past treasure land battles, this phase would usually be the most intense—with Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns on the brink of war.
But now, the treasure land was completely empty.
Only eleven Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns from the Liyang Kingdom were wandering around.
“The other five kingdoms’ Sovereigns have all withdrawn.
”Hong Lian Heavenly Sovereign observed for a while and spoke up.
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign’s strength is terrifying—worthy of the title Invincible Sovereign.
”Chi Yang Heavenly Sovereign said in awe.
He had been the previous guardian of the Black Jade Nest and was the first among them to meet Lin Yuan—making his shock all the greater.
Who would’ve thought that the young core royal back then would grow to this level?
Chi Yang Heavenly Sovereign felt fortunate he hadn’t offended Lin Yuan back then.
Otherwise...
Though they were both from the same kingdom, and Lin Yuan likely wouldn’t openly attack him, it would’ve made future dealings difficult.
“Yes.
Invincible Sovereign.
”The other Sovereigns were equally stunned.
Invincible Sovereign wasn’t a realm—it was a title.
A title given to the Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign.
It meant that among all Heavenly Sovereigns, he had no rival.
Such a title had never appeared since the founding of the Grand Ancient Void Kingdom and the five others.
True, some past strongest Heavenly Sovereigns had been unparalleled in certain aspects—but none were truly invincible.
These two characters carried not just pressure—but a sense of despair from the other Sovereigns.
Chaos Void.
Deep within the Milky Way Chaos Continent...
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.
Before him floated a tiny cauldron the size of a palm.
While his true body in the Source World was comprehending its source...
His true body in the Chaos Void was studying the great Dao laws within the Heavenly Void Cauldron.
Though Lin Yuan couldn’t comprehend the Chaos Void’s source directly, thirteenth-rank lifeforms could.
And the laws within the Heavenly Void Cauldron surely mirrored that source.
Studying the Heavenly Void Cauldron wasn’t as effective as observing the true source—but it was close.
“Source World...
Chaos Void...
” Lin Yuan carefully examined the cauldron while comparing it with the operations of the Source World’s source.
Streams of insight erupted in his mind.
“Different-dimensional essence of spacetime...
” Lin Yuan felt his understanding of Spacetime Fusion Laws skyrocketing.
Far more effective than studying the cauldron alone.
Not just spacetime—his comprehension of other laws was improving at an unbelievable pace.
One world’s source, combined with his Unrivaled Insight...
The effect was far beyond simple addition.
It was a qualitative leap.
Day by day passed.
In the blink of an eye, two hundred years had gone by....
