Chapter 2982: The Four Supreme Laws

"And I, along with the Supreme Mystic Divine Gold and Chaos Divine Fire within you, also originate from this."

"Five Elements Spirits, as long as they evolve to a second form, can begin to develop intelligence... Although the intelligence is new, because we have inherited memories, we know what we are, and we know what we will face in the future."

"Our fate from here on is either to be swallowed by a similar Five Elements Spirit, thus losing our intelligence and completely disappearing from this world, or to continuously swallow similar Five Elements Spirits until evolving into the ultimate form, and then, while helping the host become The Strongest One, detach from the Five Elements Spirit body and give birth to a body completely our own."

As he finished speaking, the voice of the Primal Chaos Divine Soil sounded a bit despondent, "In the long river of history, there are very few Five Elements Spirits that can make it to the end and achieve the ultimate form..."

"I only hope that by sticking with you, the three of us can make it to the end."

Towards the end, the Primal Chaos Divine Soil seemed somewhat lacking in confidence, clearly not having much faith.

Wyatt Barnes remained silent.

After a moment, Wyatt Barnes curiously asked, "Why can there only be eighteen Deity Realms? Can’t a nineteenth Deity Realm appear?"

"No! That is limited by the cosmic rules... The cosmic rules stipulate that only eighteen Deity Realms can exist within this universe, so only eighteen Deity Realms can exist."

The Primal Chaos Divine Soil said, "Even The Strongest One cannot change this!"

"Cosmic rules?"

Wyatt Barnes was startled, "What is that?"

"Cosmic rules are ethereal and intangible, no one can clearly explain what they are, yet they truly exist... For example, the Thunder Punishment vow in the mundane realms is a type of cosmic rule."

"Also, very few can cultivate into Divinity in the celestial realms, which is another cosmic rule."

"The emergence of the Deity Realms limits the universe to a maximum of only eighteen Deity Realms, which is another cosmic rule."

"Within this universe, the strongest known beings are those capable of creating a Deity Realm... Yet even those strongest beings are like ants before the cosmic rules!"

"There was once a strongest being who tried to forcibly create a nineteenth Deity Realm... Do you know what happened to him in the end?"

The Primal Chaos Divine Soil asked Wyatt Barnes deliberately.

"What happened to him?"

Wyatt Barnes was curious.

If this universe can only accommodate eighteen Deity Realms, anyone trying to forcibly create a nineteenth Deity Realm is undoubtedly defying the cosmic rules of this universe.

"The cosmic rules sent down divine retribution, obliterating him instantaneously... Moreover, he was reduced to nothing, with not a trace left!"

The Primal Chaos Divine Soil said.

Wyatt Barnes’s heart trembled.

The Strongest One.

Existences that stand at the pinnacle of this universe, yet facing the divine retribution imposed by the cosmic rules, they are completely obliterated?

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes deeply realized the terrifying nature of the cosmic rules.

It is undoubtedly an existence that cannot be defied!

After a while, Wyatt Barnes came back to his senses and changed the subject, "You mentioned earlier that most who became The Strongest Ones had the presence of an ultimate form of Five Elements Spirit with them."

"By the meaning of your words... are there actually people who became The Strongest Ones without having the ultimate form of Five Elements Spirit with them?"

Wyatt Barnes asked curiously.

"Yes."

The Primal Chaos Divine Soil responded and continued, "Those people are beings with comprehension so extraordinary that they transcended the universe... They comprehended one of the four supreme laws to the ultimate extent, integrated it thoroughly, thus attracting the cosmic rules’ blessing and transforming completely, directly becoming The Strongest One!"

"The four supreme laws?"

Wyatt Barnes was curious, "Are these, by any chance, the top-tier laws you previously mentioned which cannot be contained within Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities?"

"Precisely."

The Primal Chaos Divine Soil answered, "The laws contained within Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities, at most, can only be considered the second-tier laws."

"Generally, laws are divided into two tiers... The first tier only consists of four laws, while there are many in the second tier."

When speaking of the first tier of the four laws again, the tone of the Primal Chaos Divine Soil subtly changed.

"Those first-tier four laws, besides the Life Law... what are the other three laws?"

Wyatt Barnes curiously inquired.

"The other three laws are the ’Time Law’, ’Space Law’, and the ’Death Law’!"

While answering Wyatt Barnes, the Primal Chaos Divine Soil spoke in a somewhat solemn tone, "The Time Law and Space Law are collectively referred to as the ’Laws of Time and Space’... And the Life Law and Death Law are collectively referred to as the ’Laws of Life and Death’."

"In this universe, the supreme laws are the Laws of Time and Space and the Laws of Life and Death... Everything and everyone cannot escape these four Supreme Laws!"

The Primal Chaos Divine Soil concluded.

"Time Law, Space Law, Life Law, Death Law... which correspond respectively to: time, space, life, and death."

Wyatt Barnes took a deep breath.

Indeed.

Everything in the world cannot escape time, space, life, and death.

Time is constantly passing, and nothing can defy it.

Space is the foundation upon which everything stands.

Life, the root of all things.

Death, the catastrophe of all things.

"With the same level of cultivation and comparable understanding of the Law Rule... But if one person only comprehends a second-tier Law Rule, while another comprehends a first-tier Law Rule, the latter can completely crush the former."

"Not for any other reason, simply because they comprehend one of the four Supreme Laws!"

The Divine Soil of Hongmeng said, "Of course, the four Supreme Laws are strong, but understanding them is very difficult."

"First, it requires opportunity... Secondly, it requires exceptional innate talent, as the four Supreme Laws have extremely stringent requirements for comprehension."

At this point, the Divine Soil of Hongmeng’s tone shifted, "So, we only dare to say that after you obtain the Divine Tree of Life, you only have a chance to comprehend the Life Law, not that you will definitely understand it."

"That main branch of the Divine Tree of Life acknowledges you as its master. You can clearly feel the powerful vitality of the Divine Tree of Life, which is your opportunity to engage with the Life Law... If you are lucky and have sufficient innate talent, you may fully comprehend the Life Law."

"However, if you’re unlucky and lack sufficient innate talent, even if the Divine Tree of Life acknowledges you, it’s impossible to comprehend the Life Law."

"Furthermore, not everyone can have the Divine Tree of Life acknowledge them... The primary condition for having the Divine Tree of Life acknowledge you is possessing ninety-nine Heavenly Veins."

"Secondly, you need to have the cultivation level of an Immortal Lord."

"However, this secondary condition can be bypassed with certain means... But the primary condition, even The Strongest One, cannot bypass!"

"This is also a restriction of the laws of nature that everyone must abide by!"

After this speech from the Divine Soil of Hongmeng, Wyatt Barnes realized that it was due to his possession of ninety-nine Heavenly Veins that the Divine Tree of Life could acknowledge him as its master.

"Are there many people with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins?"

Wyatt Barnes asked curiously.

"According to my inherited memories... In this realm, under the restrictions of the laws of nature, typically, the number of people with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins existing simultaneously in each era does not exceed one hundred."

"Moreover, not every person with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins ends up becoming The Strongest One... Among The Strongest Ones, only a small number possess ninety-nine Heavenly Veins."

"But, without exception, those people are the elites among The Strongest Ones!"

The Divine Soil of Hongmeng continued.

Upon hearing these words from the Divine Soil of Hongmeng, Wyatt Barnes also realized:

Ninety-nine Heavenly Veins are only a small part of his advantage and will not determine how great his future achievements can be.

"In my lifetime, of those with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins, besides myself, there is only Leilany..."

"I didn’t expect that in this realm, there are quite a few like Leilany and me, possessing ninety-nine Heavenly Veins."

"And among those with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins, many must have perished in this land where the strong are as numerous as clouds."

Wyatt Barnes pondered silently.

"Furthermore, don’t feel too complacent about having ninety-nine Heavenly Veins... In fact, if your strength approaches that of The Strongest One, and the news about your ninety-nine Heavenly Veins gets out, those who don’t have ninety-nine Heavenly Veins among The Strongest Ones may take action to eliminate you!"

"Because a being with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins, once becoming The Strongest One, possesses strength that greatly surpasses most of The Strongest Ones without ninety-nine Heavenly Veins."

"In the long river of history, countless geniuses with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins have died at the hands of The Strongest Ones just as they were about to become The Strongest Ones."

"Of course, before you truly grow and are about to become The Strongest One... those who aren’t The Strongest One with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins won’t target you. Because at that point, you pose no threat to them and are not worth mentioning."

"Hence, under the cautionary lessons of history, any person with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins who knows this history won’t easily expose having ninety-nine Heavenly Veins."

"Having ninety-nine Heavenly Veins is both a blessing and a curse!"

"So... young man, although you have ninety-nine Heavenly Veins, it’s best not to reveal it lightly. Otherwise, if one day you reach that step, disaster will undoubtedly follow!"

The Divine Soil of Hongmeng’s voice carried unparalleled weight towards the end.

"Understood."

Wyatt Barnes nodded solemnly.

In the past, he was better off not knowing.

But now that he knows, naturally he wouldn’t lightly reveal the fact that he has ninety-nine Heavenly Veins.

"No matter what the future holds, I, the Chaos Divine Fire, and the Taixuan Divine Gold, will do our best to help you... But, how far you can go will mostly depend on yourself."

"Of course, we also hope to continue following you onwards... Because, in this realm, while there are countless people with high talent and good comprehension, those with ninety-nine Heavenly Veins are fewer than a hundred!"
