Creating Heavenly Laws
Chapter Summary
But now, all Legendary Lords who’ve endured over a hundred million tribulations are facing the same tribulation decreed by the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao—To stop Lin Yuan from continuing his climb up the White Jade Steps. And this time, the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao had issued the same tribulation to all Legendary Lords who had surpassed a hundred million tribulations, promising thousandfold or even ten-thousandfold rewards for success. Even if the will of the Supreme Law ...
“The will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao… is it trying to stop me from continuing up the White Jade Steps?
”Lin Yuan’s gaze was distant, looking toward the endless dimensional planes.
Normally, the “Endless Tribulations” that each Lord undergoes differ for every individual.
But now, all Legendary Lords who’ve endured over a hundred million tribulations are facing the same tribulation decreed by the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao—To stop Lin Yuan from continuing his climb up the White Jade Steps.
The intent was far too obvious.
And according to the Purple Light Legendary Lord, every Legendary Lord who has surpassed a hundred million tribulations, as long as they successfully stop Lin Yuan from ascending the White Jade Steps—It would be equivalent to having passed from a thousand additional tribulations all the way to ten million.
A Legendary Lord nearing three hundred million tribulations—if they succeeded in stopping Lin Yuan, it would be as if they had passed all subsequent thousands of tribulations.
A Legendary Lord just past one hundred million tribulations—if they succeeded in stopping Lin Yuan, it would be as if they had overcome tens of millions of tribulations.
It must be known that the tribulations of the “Endless Tribulations” path are tied directly to one’s power.
The more tribulations one survives, the more the endless dimensional planes will reciprocate, bestowing greater strength in return.
And most crucially, even if one fails to stop Lin Yuan, even if they fail the tribulation, they won’t be erased by the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
Truthfully, if the target of the tribulation weren’t himself, even Lin Yuan would’ve been tempted.
“Milky Way, you must be careful.
”The Purple Light Legendary Lord sent a message.
He wasn’t particularly interested in the tribulation sent down by the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
First, the tribulation to block the Milky Way’s ascent up the White Jade Steps could only be undertaken by Legendary Lords who had passed at least a hundred million tribulations.
The Purple Light Legendary Lord hadn’t yet reached that threshold.
The reason he even knew about this was due to intelligence shared by other Legendary Lords who had.
Second, every tribulation along the “Endless Tribulations” path to transcendence was incredibly “fair.
”Put simply, for the Legendary Lords attempting to transcend, there was no such thing as easily passing a tribulation.
Want to receive the power feedback of the endless dimensional planes?
To take your power even further beyond?
Not that simple.
And this time, the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao had issued the same tribulation to all Legendary Lords who had surpassed a hundred million tribulations, promising thousandfold or even ten-thousandfold rewards for success.
And no punishment for failure.
How could that possibly be as simple as it appeared?
Such “favor” from the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao meant that the difficulty of this tribulation was far beyond the imagination of all Legendary Lords.
Never mind that the Purple Light Legendary Lord hadn’t reached the threshold—even if he had, he likely wouldn’t consider it.
Not to mention his familiarity with Lin Yuan.
“Don’t worry.
”Lin Yuan, on the other hand, wasn’t particularly concerned.
Stop him from climbing the White Jade Steps?
How?
At his current height upon the White Jade Steps, he stood far above all other Legendary Lords.
And with the steps themselves broken midway, those Legendary Lords—let alone stopping him—might not even be able to remain on the White Jade Steps at all.
Even if the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao used some unfathomable method to teleport all those Legendary Lords before him—With Lin Yuan’s current strength, Legendary Lords like the Haotian Lord and Fantian Lord—who had endured three hundred million tribulations—wouldn’t last even a breath before him.
Even if all Legendary Lords with over a hundred million tribulations in this current spacetime joined forces, Lin Yuan was confident he could tear through them with ease.
After creating the complete version of the Innate Five Tais, Lin Yuan’s power had completely surpassed Legendary Lords like Haotian and Fantian.
And now, building upon the foundation of the Innate Five Tais, he had evolved three more primal Chaos Daos.
“Supreme Law and Great Dao will…”Lin Yuan, though unafraid, would not underestimate it.
If the Supreme Law and Great Dao dared to issue a tribulation to stop his ascent of the White Jade Steps, it meant there must be some chance of success.
“Stopping the Milky Way Lord from ascending the White Jade Steps?
What a joke.
Has the Supreme Law and Great Dao gone mad?
”Legendary Lords like Haotian and Fantian, despite their initial shock, shook their heads immediately.
Perhaps Legendary Lords who had endured one or two hundred million tribulations might be tempted by the tribulation from the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
But they were different.
As the first to ascend the White Jade Steps after the Unification, they were more than clear on the terror that was the Milky Way Lord.
The stronger the power, the higher the realm, and the longer the climb on the post-Unification White Jade Steps.
The more time they spent climbing, the more they realized how terrifying the Milky Way Lord was—possibly ranking among the top five, even top three, of all Legendary Lords since the dawn of the endless dimensions.
And how were they even supposed to stop him now?
The Milky Way Lord stood so high above them on the White Jade Steps, they couldn’t even approach.
As for dealing with his other true bodies or incarnations?
It was meaningless.
At this level of existence, he could easily hide in some alternate spacetime, and they’d never find him even in a lifetime.
“Don’t rush.
”The Sage suddenly spoke.
“If the Supreme Law and Great Dao dared issue such a tribulation, then there must be a chance of completion.
And even if it fails, so what?
There’s no erasure.
”“True.
”“Let’s wait and see.
”The Lords of Wanxiang, Jiulong, and others all nodded in agreement.
They were still in observation mode regarding the tribulation issued by the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
If no new developments or supports emerged, they’d abandon it outright.
After all, even the likes of Haotian, Fantian, and the Sage saw no hope of successfully stopping the Milky Way.
But if things changed, they might try to transcend it.
After all, even failure wouldn’t result in erasure by the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
“Did you notice?
The deepest parts of spacetime are trembling.
”Just then, Fantian spoke.
Watching closely, he realized the tremor came from both the ancient past and the distant future.
At that moment—Under the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao, past, present, and future were all being affected.
Past spacetime.
This was not long after the creation of the endless dimensional planes.
Strands of primal Chaos Dao stretched across the void as countless mighty time-based beings and terrifying Time Beings explored various paths to transcendence.
“Supreme Law and Great Dao…”A colossal being suddenly opened its eyes.
Its size was equivalent to tens of thousands of top-level dimensional spaces.
Even in slumber, its aura influenced vast dimensional gaps.
Just comprehending its residual aura was enough for time beings to touch the level of the triple-realm Lords.
“It wants me to head to some future time and stop the ‘Milky Way’ from climbing a new path of transcendence?
If I succeed, I get credit for ten tribulations?
Wouldn’t that mean I complete the ‘Infinite Origin’ path outright?
”A smile appeared on the colossal being’s face.
“Interesting, interesting.
In the future, are there many transcendence paths?
Even ones rivaling the ‘Endless Tribulations’?
”For a being of its caliber, a single glance could tell which transcendence paths would ultimately fail.
The most promising one had always been the “Endless Tribulations,” as it originated from the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
If one reached the end, true transcendence was highly possible.
The colossal being had already passed 329 million tribulations—only ten away from completion.
Yet the closer it came to the end, the more cautious it became.
It dared not rush.
Now, with the Supreme Law and Great Dao actively issuing a tribulation—and no threat of erasure upon failure—The colossal being was certainly intrigued.
“Very well.
”“Let’s take a look.
”A decision was made.
First, to see if it could transcend this trial.
Second, to meet this “Milky Way” who had provoked such a response from the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
Buzz— Just as the colossal being prepared to transcend, the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao spread out, guiding it toward a particular future spacetime.
Without this guidance, even it would have been nearly impossible to locate that point in time—given the countless branching timelines and complexity of the future.
But before leaving, the colossal being made some arrangements.
After all, no one knew how long it would be gone.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
In moments—Several figures condensed before it.
These were its disciples, each inheriting its knowledge of various transcendence paths.
“I’m heading to a future point in time.
”The colossal being spoke directly.
“Until I return, none of you are to slack off.
Don’t forget your research into your respective paths to transcendence.
”“Yes.
”“Yes.
”“Rest assured, Master.
”The figures all bowed respectfully.
“Wu You,” the colossal being glanced at the disciple in the back.
This disciple, named Wu You, seemed rather dull compared to the many other prodigious disciples it had accepted.
“Master,”Wu You jolted, immediately responding.
“In truth, I’ve always had doubts about whether a perfect time-being could even exist above the standard time-being level.
This path to transcendence may not be worth focusing on.
If it proves too difficult, pick another path.
”The colossal being spoke gently, eyes on Wu You.
“Master, I believe this path is the right one.
”Wu You responded a bit shyly.
“The right one?
”The colossal being neither affirmed nor denied.
But said no more.
“Very well.
Keep exploring it.
We’ll talk when I return.
”With that, the colossal being nodded, cast one last glance at his many disciples, and then stepped into the future time pointed to by the will of the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
After the being departed, the disciples all vanished one by one.
Only Wu You remained.
“Master, don’t worry.
I’ll prove that the ‘Perfect Time Lifeform’ is also a true path to transcendence.
”Wu You silently vowed in his heart.
Another ancient spacetime.
A being radiating infinite light, influencing entire dimensional spaces, opened its eyes.
“To head to a future time and stop the ‘Milky Way’ from ascending a new path of transcendence?
”“What kind of path could provoke the Supreme Law and Great Dao into actively issuing a tribulation?
”The radiant being was intrigued.
“Even when the once-invincible Wu You Lord tried to break through to the perfect time-being level, sacrificing his life to evolve a trace of transcendent power and prove the reality of the ‘Perfect Time Lifeform’ path, all he did was make the Supreme Law and Great Dao stir.
It never issued a tribulation.
”“Let’s go see.
”After some thought, the radiant being also followed the Supreme Law and Great Dao’s guidance toward that future time.
“To go to the future and stop the ‘Milky Way’ from ascending a new path of transcendence?
”Just finishing his secluded cultivation, the Return to Ruin Lord’s eyes flickered.
“Succeeding is equivalent to passing a thousand tribulations.
Failing doesn’t lead to erasure?
”“I’ve already passed 300 million and 1 thousand tribulations—another thousand would bring me to 300 million and 2 thousand.
” Return to Ruin Lord contemplated.
He knew very well—the Supreme Law and Great Dao wouldn’t be this ‘generous.
’ Stopping the Milky Way Lord’s ascent couldn’t possibly be easy.
But since there was no punishment for failure, no risk of erasure—Return to Ruin Lord naturally had no reason not to try.
“Let’s go.
”He followed the guidance to a certain future time.
In the distant future—A number of Legendary Lords who had surpassed 300 million tribulations also received the tribulation issued by the Supreme Law and Great Dao.
“To go to a past time and stop the Milky Way from climbing a new transcendence path?
”“This Milky Way… why does that sound so familiar?
”“I remember now—he’s that one, isn’t he?
”“Not going.
Only an idiot would go.
”Unlike the past, the Legendary Lords of the future, having crossed 300 million tribulations, clearly knew—or had heard—something.
No matter how enticing the ‘rewards’ offered by the Supreme Law and Great Dao were, they remained unmoved.
Of course, as the timeline extended further into the future, more and more Legendary Lords appeared who were unaware of these things, and they eventually chose to accept the tribulation.
Present time.
Legendary Lords like Haotian and Fantian—eight in total who had passed 300 million tribulations—were closely observing the tremors linking past and future.
The next moment—Under their shocked gazes, terrifying figures began appearing from the depths of spacetime—each vast enough to encompass boundless dimensional planes.
These beings merely stood there, and yet their presence warped spacetime around them, as if the entire universe bowed before them.
“This, this…”Haotian, Fantian, and the others were left speechless.
From the deepest tremors of spacetime, the beings who emerged—even the weakest—were not beneath them.
Over ninety percent of these beings exuded an aura that surpassed them, and some in particular, upon mere glance, made even Haotian and Fantian tremble—like seeing the end of a path to transcendence.
“Who are they—”Compared to the others, the Sage was the most shaken.
He had lived through countless eras and had personally witnessed Wu You Lord create the Perfect Time Lifeform transcendence path.
Many of the figures emerging from the deepest part of spacetime had once overlooked all dimensions in their respective eras—once called invincible.
Very soon—The tremors at the core of spacetime began to subside.
At this moment, 503 figures from different past and future times now stood silently in the void, their invisible auras clashing and entwining, throwing timelines into chaos.
These 503 figures—each one had passed at least 300 million tribulations.
Most had surpassed 310 or 320 million.
And quite a few had passed over 329 million tribulations—just a few trials away from completing the “Endless Tribulations” path to transcendence....
