Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 393 The Path to Invincibility!

"They're quite sensible."

Lin Qing glanced at the spot where Xuan Tu Hou had disappeared with a half-smile, said nothing, and then vanished into thin air.

Meanwhile, Lord Xuantu, hiding in the distance, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "How could Qingying have offended this prince? Luckily, I wasn't implicated..."

If any other eternal being dared to kill his subordinates at will, he would naturally have to argue with them, report to the Emperor, and even take a fight.

But this prince is not only His Majesty the King of Light’s personal disciple, but also the main war avatar of Marquis Yantian and Marquis Cangye who easily killed them hundreds of years ago!
He wasn't even at the peak of the Eternal Realm, so how could he dare to provoke such a powerful figure?
"so far so good……"

Marquis Xuantu took a deep breath, "Just pretend you know nothing, and report it to the Emperor..."

Although this subordinate was very capable, and it was a pity to lose him, it was nothing compared to my own future and life.

……

Lin Qing traveled directly back to the Heavenly Light Divine Kingdom through the River of Time and Space. After selecting a batch of treasures in the Treasure Hall, he entered the Flowing Years Branch Hall of the Light and Time Palace to begin his seclusion.

"The Nine-Hearted Sage is said to possess the highest level of human understanding?"

A hint of anticipation flickered in Lin Qing's eyes. With a slight movement of his brow, a wisp of light flew out and transformed into a handsome young man who looked exactly like an Earthling.

This is the original form of the Nine-Hearted Sage, exactly the same as the original humans.

However, the Nine-Hearted Sage was born with genes that could reach the upper limit of chaos, as well as the innate secret technique of splitting the soul and unparalleled comprehension.

"I'll see."

Lin Qing immediately began reading the memories of the Nine-Hearted Sage's avatar: "So that's how it is. He's only cultivated for 8.6 billion years? 8.6 billion years ago, he encountered danger in the chaos and, in order to leave a sliver of hope, left a heart at the edge of the main universe, thinking that he could be reborn after death using this heart. Unexpectedly, the ancestor of the Time-Space Island, who was avoiding the Great Annihilation, obtained the heart and brought it into the main universe..."

Unfortunately, the chaotic beings were unable to resist the will of the universe and could not enter the main universe.

Once the heart of the Nine-Hearted Sage entered the main universe, the main universe cut off its senses, making it impossible to remotely control the heart's self-destruction.

Otherwise, the Nine-Hearted Sage could completely recreate a heart, at the cost of losing all traces and memories of that heart and having to start cultivating again.

But this heart is in its nascent stage; it hasn't even begun to be cultivated yet, so reshaping it doesn't matter.

For over eight billion years, the Nine Wise Ones have been searching for their own hearts, but the void seas connected to that edge of the universe number in the tens of thousands, so how could they be found so easily?
"Over eighty-six billion years, we have comprehended the complete rules of the present, the mysteries of two kinds of past rules, and the mystery of future vision..."

Lin Qing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "Such terrifying comprehension, all within just 8.6 billion years?"

It seems that he only took a few million years to completely master the rules of the future, which seems much faster.

But he is the supreme god!
He possesses the incredible advantage of being able to comprehend the rules of spacetime at the closest distance, making it hundreds or thousands of times easier for him to understand these rules!
Moreover, he also preemptively learned the secrets of time, saving the most tedious process. He only needed to integrate it himself, which shortened the progress by more than half.

In particular, he also directly anticipated the final bottleneck in the overall fusion of the three great mysteries.

If one is not an entropy reverser, even with a main god avatar, it is normal to be trapped in this final bottleneck for hundreds of billions of years!
Like Xiaoyingbo, who is also a main god, he cultivated to the peak of chaotic beings in a short time, but he has been stuck at the final bottleneck for hundreds of billions of years without being able to break through it, which shows how difficult the final bottleneck is.

And what about the Nine-Hearted Wise One?

It can be said that it has no advantages whatsoever, relying purely on its own comprehension, it has been able to master the complete rules of the present over a period of 8.6 billion years, and even the mysteries of two past rules and one future rule. The terrifying nature of its comprehension is evident.

"If we have the advantage of having a main god's avatar, it would probably be a thousand times faster, perhaps even taking millions of years to complete?"

Lin Qing couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

This level of understanding is truly astonishing.

Without an entropy reverser, it's unknown how many more years it would take him to break through this final bottleneck.

The Nine-Hearted Sage indeed doesn't have any special bloodline; his genes are simply 999 times the upper limit of the universe, making him just like a second-generation Chaos Being.

His innate secret technique is only one—

"Original Law".

This "Original Law" secret technique is the Nine-Hearted Sage's understanding of the various powers of endless chaos. Under his soul perception, he believes that the power of endless chaos can be divided into six basic units.

By combining and extending these six basic units in various ways, one can theoretically create any secret technique!
The higher one's comprehension, the more powerful the secret techniques one can create!
Eternal beings possess complete control over the rules of spacetime, and their inner world generates its own origin, generally resulting in the creation of their own origin-level secret techniques.

Only those beings who create supreme secret arts can do so by basing their creation on the origin of the universe within their bodies.

Only when the ruler of the divine kingdom controls the divine kingdom formed from the true origin of the universe can he create even more terrifying divine-level secret techniques based on the true origin of the universe.

However, for the Nine-Hearted Sage, all he needs to do is combine and extend these six basic units representing all the power of chaos as defined in the "Original Law" to create various secret techniques.

Even without achieving eternity, one can still create primordial-level secret techniques, or even supreme secret techniques!

Just like the Nine-Hearted Sage who was transformed into an avatar by Lin Qinghua, he has already created 654 kinds of origin-level secret techniques through the "Original Law", and has also created two kinds of supreme secret techniques!
How can one create supreme secret arts before even achieving eternity?
This is simply unbelievable!
Even...theoretically, there's a slim chance of creating a God-level secret technique!

After all, the foundation of a god-level secret technique is just a complete set of spacetime rules. It's just that the level of understanding of the god-kings is different, which is why they can create such a terrifying secret technique.

Even those with nine minds, who do not require such a high level of cognition, have a chance to create a god-level secret technique through the "Original Law"!

Therefore, this innate secret technique is also perfectly suited for the Nine-Hearted Sage with his amazing comprehension.

"No wonder the Nine-Hearted Sage is a unique existence in the entire endless chaos..."

Lin Qing sighed inwardly, "They are indeed incredibly intelligent beings..."

Other chaotic beings naturally evolve to their peak level through eating and drinking, while the Nine-Hearted Sage is born at the level of a Void Ruler, and must rely on his own cultivation to advance step by step, just like humans.

It was very weak in the early stages, but it has the potential to become a force comparable to the American Duke in the later stages!
"There's even... a sliver of a possibility that it might transform into a Chaos Lord?"

Thinking of this, Lin Qing couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Judging from the inherited memories of the Nine Minds Sages, a new Nine Minds Sage is born only after one dies. However, throughout the endless chaos and endless years, no Nine Minds Sage has ever transformed into a Chaos Lord.

This step is far, far more difficult than the ultimate transformation of humankind.

However, any chaotic creature that transforms into a Chaos Lord possesses strength comparable to that of a God-King!

"However, since my clone is now a Chaos Lord, I should focus on cultivating first."

Lin Qing shook his head inwardly, "The Nine-Hearted Sage can only be divided into nine hearts at most. Each heart grasps a spacetime mystery, which is perfectly balanced and will not affect each other. But he can only grasp a maximum of nine, and generally they will not do that..." The true spacetime rules can be divided into three paths: past, present, and future, for a total of ten spacetime mysteries.

While the nine hearts of the Nine-Hearted Sage are interconnected yet unaffected by each other, they are still subject to the limitations of endless chaos.

That is, the split heart must also be completely immersed in a certain path—such as immersing itself in the secrets of creation, immersing itself in some kind of spacetime mystery… It must be absolutely focused, and only after being completely immersed can it exert its enlightenment.

Otherwise, if one tries to do multiple things at once, the Nine-Mind Wise One will only become mediocre.

and so……

Each generation of Nine-Hearted Sages typically has one heart responsible for creating secret arts, while the other eight hearts each master a spacetime mystery. Alternatively, they may use only seven hearts to master two spacetime rules, leaving one heart to attempt to become a Chaos Lord.

In other words, one must either immerse oneself in the "Original Law" and the eight mysteries of spacetime, or immerse oneself in the "Original Law" and the two spacetime rules, in order to seek that sliver of opportunity to challenge the Chaos Lord.

The Nine-Hearted Sage of this generation is so ambitious that he wants to become a Chaos Lord, which is why he refuses to give up his ninth heart.

Otherwise, if it's just to reach the level of a Duke, it doesn't matter if there's no ninth heart.

In order to find the ninth heart, it temporarily abandoned the cultivation of the complete past rules and instead allowed a heart to immerse itself in the mysteries of the future in order to find the ninth heart.

The Original Law is the foundation of combat power and cannot be abandoned. In addition, the complete current rules include four spacetime mysteries, two past mysteries, and one future mystery, making a total of eight hearts.

And its dying wish was—

After finding the ninth heart, he destroyed the one that was immersed in the mysteries of future vision, abandoned the mysteries of future vision, and turned to cultivate the third kind of mysteries of the past. Together with the "Original Law", he occupied exactly eight hearts, and the last heart will be used to challenge the Chaos Lord in the future.

The plan was perfect.

Unfortunately... it encountered Lin Qing, and even its future vision couldn't see Lin Qing at the Eternal level.

"How could there be such a secret between the three major rules of spacetime?"

Lin Qing read through the inherited memories deep within the soul of the Nine-Hearted Sage and exclaimed inwardly, "To merge two paths of time and space, one can only use the current rules to merge with another rule, but it is impossible to merge the rules of the future with the rules of the past?"

The Duke level refers to beings who have mastered two different ways of time and space and integrated them into their inner world.

However, almost all the dukes were a blend of the current rules and the past rules, and none of them mastered the rules of the future, so it's no wonder that no one knew this secret.

The past and the future are two extremes that cannot be reconciled.

Only by using the current rules as a buffer can the extremes of the past and future be merged together, which is the legendary true rules of spacetime.

Also known as the 'Ultimate Rule of Chaos'.

"From this perspective, I have a chance to master the three major spacetime rules..."

Lin Qing took a deep breath, "I have already mastered the rules of the future, and the seven spacetime mysteries of the rules of the present and the rules of the past can be handled by the Nine-Hearted Sages. In addition, with the 'Original Law' and the challenge of becoming a Chaos Lord, that's just enough to use up nine hearts..."

Originally, the Nine-Hearted Sage only had nine hearts and could never master the ten mysteries of space and time.

But once it becomes a clone, this possibility arises!
"Let's rebuild everything."

Lin Qingyi reached out, and the previously sealed ninth heart floated towards the Nine-Hearted Sage's clone.

The Nine-Hearted Sage's clone immediately revealed all eight hearts within its body, and these eight hearts were instantly destroyed.

Then, consuming a large amount of energy, eight hearts were reshaped.

The original eight hearts comprehended the mysteries of space and time in accordance with their own consciousness and inner world. Now that the consciousness has been replaced by Lin Qing's, and the inner world has also changed, they naturally have to start cultivating again.

The Original Law is also based on the original mysteries of space and time, and it too needs to be rebuilt.

Before achieving eternity, the Nine-Hearted Sage can reshape his heart and rebuild his path at any time. However, once the heart is destroyed, all related memories in his consciousness will also disappear, even if he has a clone, since the clone is also the same consciousness.

Once eternity is achieved and the nine hearts are united, it can never be changed.

"These seven hearts are responsible for the seven mysteries of time: time acceleration, time deceleration, time stillness, time reversal, past vision, past body, and descending into the past."

"And this heart is responsible for immersing oneself in the Original Law."

"The last heart, as the hope for breaking through to the Chaos Lord."

Lin Qing looked at the nine floating hearts with satisfaction. The Nine Wise Ones immediately began to urge eight of the hearts to grow wildly, transforming them into naked human figures, all of which looked similar.

Immediately, the five heart-shaped clones began to absorb various mysteries of space and time, and quickly became immersed in them.

The four spatial mysteries of the current rules are independent of each other and can be cultivated separately.

However, just like the rules of the future, the mysteries of the three timelines are closely connected. One must start with the view of the past. Only when the view of the past is perfected can the past body be deeply cultivated. Only when the past body is perfected can one descend to the past and be deeply cultivated.

At this moment, Lin Qing chose to cultivate the four mysteries of the present rules and the mystery of past vision.

"A clone of the Supreme God!"

At the same time, the Nine-Hearted Sage was also sensing the vast and boundless spacetime rules of the main universe most clearly through the main god's avatar.

In an instant, the speed at which the Nine-Hearted Sage's clone comprehended the rules of spacetime increased by more than a hundred times!
"It took the Nine Wise Ones over six billion years to master the complete rules of the present, but what about now?"

Lin Qing smiled slightly, "The final bottleneck is the most difficult part, and even the main god's avatar can't help much, but it will definitely be much faster than before..."

Although this is the time for the Nine-Hearted Sage to comprehend the rules, and he cannot use the Entropy Reversal Technique to advance, it won't be much slower!
Moreover, the flow of time within this Hall of Time is three thousand eight hundred times faster.

While millions of years have passed outside, 3.8 billion years have already passed inside the Palace of Time!

"I can't help with understanding the rules, but when creating secret techniques using the 'Original Law,' the Nine-Hearted Sage only needs to create a theoretically feasible secret technique. I can directly use the Entropy Reverser to advance the cost!"

A glint of expectation appeared in Lin Qing's eyes, "In that case, even a God-level secret technique would still have hope..."

This innate secret technique, "Original Law," is a perfect match for those who reverse entropy.

Even if he creates secret techniques based on dual spacetime or even complete spacetime rules in the future, he can still use the anti-entropy people and the "Original Law" to create terrifying secret techniques that are more powerful than "Cosmic Body Calamity" and "Causeless and Effectless"!
"Plus the complete Dao of Spacetime..."

Lin Qing's eyes burned with fervor, "This will be a truly invincible path!"
