Chapter 459 - 216: Consolidation and New Supremes

Chen Yu closed his eyes, sensing the Seven Laws within him.

All but the Time Law had nearly reached their peak.

The first he had mastered, the Law of Strength, was also his most powerful one.

Wielding the Law of Strength and pushing his physical body to its limits, he wouldn’t flinch even in a direct confrontation with a Tier Three True God.

He could even hold his own against a Tier Four True God.

’I wonder how powerful I’ll be once I’ve mastered all Nine Laws...’ The thought flashed through Chen Yu’s mind.

Although mastering Seven Laws still put his cultivation at the peak of a Tier One True God, his power had increased a hundredfold since he first achieved that level.

His power grew exponentially with each new Law he mastered.

He estimated that once he mastered all Nine Laws, his power would increase by more than tenfold, perhaps even more.

’First, I need to stabilize my foundation.’

Calming his mind, Chen Yu sat cross-legged on the World Tree, letting the Divine Power within him nourish his Laws.

He had just succeeded in mastering the Time Law, so his foundation for it wasn’t yet stable.

It had to be completely solidified.

To master the Nine Laws, every single Law had to be unshakably firm.

Otherwise, he could suffer a backlash when the time came to evolve his Supreme Divine Kingdom.

...

Five months passed in the blink of an eye.

In a quiet chamber within the Inner City Manor of the Capital City, space distorted, and a figure materialized out of thin air.

It was none other than Chen Yu, who had been in seclusion for two years.

After mastering the Time Law, he had spent five months completely stabilizing all Seven of his Laws.

The Laws intertwined, and the Law Divine Patterns within him shone, constantly tempering his divine body.

Stepping out of the chamber, Chen Yu gazed at the blue sky and let out a long breath.

"Human Master."

A pleasant voice called out. Chen Yu turned to see a graceful figure.

Sophie!

As a super-intelligent android, she was untouched by the passage of time. She looked just as she had when they first met—flawless.

"Human Master, you’re finally out of seclusion! Your power must have grown immensely, right?"

Sophie stepped forward, a brilliant smile on her pretty face.

Chen Yu nodded slightly. "Sophie," he said, "did anything happen on the Ancestor Star while I was in seclusion?"

Sophie shook her head. "Human Master, everything on the Ancestor Star is peaceful. Nothing of note has occurred."

"However... something major did happen in another world."

"Oh? Another world? Which one?" Chen Yu asked, looking at Sophie.

Sophie replied, "Human Master, it was in the Human Race’s Azure Sky World. Someone ascended to godhood."

"The Azure Sky World... an ascension to godhood."

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes as two figures flashed through his mind.

Nangong Ba, Jiang Can!

’If anyone was on the verge of ascending to godhood, it would have to be those two.’

Their potential was immense, and both possessed supreme abilities.

"Human Master, these are the invitations from the Azure Sky World. They arrived a month ago."

Sophie produced two golden invitations and handed them to Chen Yu.

???

’Two of them?’

Chen Yu stared at the golden invitations in his hand, stunned.

’Don’t tell me they both ascended at the same time?’

Chen Yu was astonished as he looked at the golden invitations.

Sophie continued, "Human Master, a True God Venerable of the Human Race delivered them personally a month ago. When he learned you were in seclusion, he left the invitations with me. The event is in one month. The Human Race elder said that if you hadn’t come out by then, we should just let it be and not disturb your seclusion."

"I see..."

Chen Yu nodded.

He then glanced at the two golden invitations.

Just as he had thought, the two who had ascended were none other than Nangong Ba and Jiang Can.

He asked Sophie for more details and learned that the two had become True Gods one after the other, only a month apart.

’Two new True Gods at once. It seems the strength of the Human Race in the Celestial River has grown again.’

Chen Yu felt a sense of gratification as he looked at the invitations.

The stronger the Human Race became, the higher their standing would be in the Celestial River System.

A single True God Level powerhouse was worth more than tens of thousands of peak ninth-rank Martial Artists.

The more True Gods they had, the stronger the Human Race’s position would be.

This was a universal truth for all races!

A single True God was already a figure of renown within the Celestial River Star System.

To gain two True Gods at once was a monumental leap in power.

It was simply terrifying.

"Master, will you be attending?" Sophie asked, standing beside him and looking at him with her large eyes.

Chen Yu put the two golden invitations away and nodded. "Of course. But there’s no rush. A month is more than enough time."

Having mastered the Laws of both space and time, he could now wield the Power of Space-Time. In the past few months, besides stabilizing his foundation, he had also used the Angel Token to comprehend a Space-Time Array. With a single thought, he could cross a distance of over a hundred light-years.

It wasn’t as impressive as the Angel Token, which could traverse thousands of light-years, but instantly crossing a hundred was still astonishing.

As his power grew, crossing tens of thousands of light-years would become trivial.

"Come, walk with me for a bit," Chen Yu said, striding toward the manor’s exit.

Sophie nodded and followed behind him.

Just as he stepped out of the manor, Chen Yu ran into Dean Feng.

Dean Feng was startled when he saw Chen Yu and Sophie, but he quickly recovered and hurried forward.

"Chen Yu, you’re out of seclusion?"

Dean Feng was overjoyed. He had come to see if Chen Yu was about to emerge. If not, he would have had to depart for the Azure Sky World alone.

He hadn’t expected to run into Chen Yu just then.

Chen Yu smiled and nodded. "Yes, I just came out."

"You must have come to see me for a reason, Dean?" Chen Yu asked, looking at him.

Dean Feng smiled. "Nothing major. I just came to see if you were out of seclusion yet."

"You must have heard about Nangong Ba and Jiang Can by now, haven’t you?"

Dean Feng asked, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded. "I just found out. Their ascension to godhood has added two top-tier combatants to the Human Race."

Dean Feng was all smiles. "Indeed! It’s a double blessing. Two new True Gods at once! It’s truly a joyous occasion."

"Chen Yu, since you’re out, why don’t you travel with me? The ship is already arranged. We can depart tomorrow."

Chen Yu shook his head. "There’s no rush. I can arrive instantly from this distance. I’d like to walk around the Ancestor Star for a while."

"Arrive instantly?!"

Hearing Chen Yu’s words, Dean Feng’s pupils contracted.

’My word,’ he thought, ’that’s a distance of several hundred light-years! And he can arrive instantly?’

’Just how much did his power increase during this seclusion?’

’To cross such a distance... Don’t tell me he broke through again? Has he reached Tier Two True God?’

’But even a Tier Two True God couldn’t arrive instantly, could they?!’

’Has he mastered some heaven-defying ability?!’

"Chen Yu, did you... break through to Tier Two True God?" Dean Feng asked, staring at him in a daze.

Chen Yu shook his head. "Not yet. I’ve ’only’ mastered two more Laws. There’s no rush to break through. I’ll wait until I achieve Law Perfection."

Dean Feng: "..."

’Mastered two Laws... and he says ’only’?!’
