Devour: Can you also draw entries from clone projection worlds?

Wei Wen stood by the window, lost in thought.

The ultimate battle of geniuses in the universe is still a long way off, and even the preliminary rounds are still some time away.

Now that he has perfected all nine lower-level laws and created nine secret techniques, he has reached the point where he can no longer cultivate any laws or create any secret techniques. It seems that all he can do now is wait.

But he didn't want to wait. The flow of time in the projection world was very different from that in the main world. He stayed there for several years, while only a few days passed in the main world.

He still wanted to go to the Martial Universe world again to see if he could break through to the highest realm.

The nine lower-level laws are perfected, the spatial law is perfected, and the law of reincarnation is perfected.

He has reached the limit of what a Hengxing-level being can achieve in terms of laws, but his cultivation level in the Martial Universe world is only at the peak of the Reincarnation Realm.

The cultivation system in the Martial Universe world has nine realms: Earth Origin Realm, Heaven Origin Realm, Yuan Dan Realm, Creation Realm, Nirvana Realm, Life Profound Realm, Death Profound Realm, Reincarnation Realm, Life and Death Realm, and Ancestral Realm.

He is currently at the peak of the Reincarnation Realm, with the Life and Death Realm and the Ancestral Realm above him.

The core of the Realm of Life and Death is "the cycle of life and death," which integrates the power of life and death into one, transcending life and death.

The core of the Ancestral Realm is "controlling heaven and earth," transforming the power of heaven and earth into one's own, and becoming the controller of a world.

He has already perfected the laws of space and reincarnation, and there are almost no bottlenecks in breaking through the Life and Death Realm and the Ancestral Realm. What he lacks is only the accumulation of time and energy.

And these are precisely the things that are most abundant in the world of projection.

After resting for a few days and waiting for the clone projection entry to cool down, he opened the system again, and the projection interface lit up.

Martial Universe, confirmed.

Projection coordinates are locked, loading.

The Gate of Reincarnation at the peak of the Reincarnation Realm slowly rotated in his dantian, emitting a seven-colored light.

The threshold of the Life and Death Realm was right in front of him. He could feel that invisible barrier, which was not hard and difficult to break through, but rather like a thin film that he could break through at any time if he wanted to.

Wei Wen did not rush to break through. He first meditated and regulated his breathing in the cultivation room for three days to adjust his condition to the best.

On the morning of the fourth day, he focused his consciousness on the Gate of Reincarnation.

The perfection of the Law of Space allowed him to reach the pinnacle of control over the power of heaven and earth during his breakthrough, while the perfection of the Law of Reincarnation allowed him to reach the pinnacle of understanding the power of life and death during his breakthrough.

With the support of two superior laws, there were no obstacles in the process of breaking through the Life and Death Realm.

The Gate of Reincarnation shattered, not broken, but transformed; a brand new energy core took shape in the dantian—the Heart of Life and Death.

The heart of life and death is half white and half black. White represents life and black represents death. The power of life and death surges from the heart and flows through the meridians.

As the power of reincarnation within his body was completely transformed into the power of life and death, the power of life made him vigorous in life, and the power of death made him terrifying in combat.

Life and death are perfectly balanced within him, neither leaning towards life nor towards death.

Wei Wen opened his eyes, his cultivation at the early stage of the Life and Death Realm surging through his body.

The power of life made his recovery speed extremely fast; he could heal in just a few breaths after being injured, and his lifespan was greatly extended.

The power of death greatly enhances his attack power; a single palm strike unleashes a burst of life and death power capable of destroying everything.

He didn't rush to leave seclusion, but continued to consolidate his cultivation at the early stage of the Life and Death Realm in the cultivation room.

Early stage of the Life and Death Realm... Middle stage of the Life and Death Realm... Late stage of the Life and Death Realm...

Each step requires the accumulation of a large amount of life and death power, and the blessing of the laws of space and reincarnation makes his cultivation speed astonishingly fast.

He completed a journey that would take others hundreds of years in just one year.

It wasn't that he had exceptional talent; rather, it was his understanding of the laws that allowed him to break through barriers almost effortlessly.

While others need to spend a lot of time comprehending the Way of Life and Death in the Realm of Life and Death, he had already comprehended it when he reached the perfection of the Law of Reincarnation.

The essence of the cycle of life and death is reincarnation. Birth is the beginning of death, and death is the continuation of life. Without birth, there is no death, and without death, there is no birth.

The peak of the Life and Death Realm is just one step away from the Ancestral Realm. The Ancestral Realm is the highest realm in the Martial Universe world, where cultivators transform the power of heaven and earth into their own and become the controllers of a world.

Ancestral Realm experts can mobilize the power of the entire world to fight, and their every move can destroy the heavens and the earth.

The transition from the Life and Death Realm to the Ancestral Realm requires not the accumulation of life and death power, but the ultimate understanding of the power of heaven and earth, merging oneself into heaven and earth, and becoming one with heaven and earth.

This step took Wei Wen nearly ten years again—yes, only ten years.

He sat cross-legged on the highest peak of the back mountain of the Dao Sect, contemplating the universe day after day.

What is the essence of heaven and earth?

It is space, it is time, it is law, it is the principle governing the operation of all things.

His perfect mastery of the laws of space allows him to perceive the power of heaven and earth far beyond that of ordinary people. He can sense the flow of the power of heaven and earth in space, the operation of the power of heaven and earth in all things, and the birth and death of the power of heaven and earth in life.

The essence of heaven and earth is the law, and the essence of the law is the Tao.

Ten years later, one morning, the sun rose from the east, and golden sunlight shone on him.

He opened his eyes, and the power of heaven and earth surged into his body like a tide, merging with his heart of life and death.

The Heart of Life and Death shattered, and a brand new energy core took shape in the dantian—the Ancestral Core.

The Ancestral Pill was small, only the size of a thumb, but it contained energy hundreds of times stronger than the Heart of Life and Death.

The life and death power within his body was completely transformed into the power of heaven and earth. With every move he made, he could manipulate the power of heaven and earth, and with a single palm strike, the world would change color.

What is the Ancestral Realm?!

An Ancestral Realm expert can already control a region of heaven and earth; in this world, he... is a god!

Wei Wen stood up and stood on the highest peak of the back mountain of the Dao Sect, overlooking the entire Eastern Xuan Region.

His cultivation at the early stage of the Ancestral Realm was functioning normally within his body, but he felt a sensation he had never experienced before.

He was once in the universe, now he is one with the universe.

Previously, he needed to mobilize the power of the laws to use them; now, the power of the laws is himself.

Suddenly, he froze. In the ocean of power of heaven and earth, he vaguely sensed another kind of power.

It is not the power of space, not the power of reincarnation, and not any of the nine lower laws.

It was a power he had never encountered before, invisible and without beginning or end, existing in every corner of the world, omnipresent yet nowhere to be found.

His consciousness traced the trajectory of that power, capturing its fluctuations.

That power flows through space, through all things, and through life.

Unlike the power of space, which can tear, compress, and create, it is not like the power of reincarnation, which can control life and death and transcend reincarnation.

It is more profound than the power of space, and more mysterious than the power of reincarnation.

Time?! Is this the law of time?!

Wei Wen's heart skipped a beat. In any world, the law of time seems to be almost non-existent. No one can control the law of time, or even perceive time. Even ancient Ancestral Realm experts could not do it.

However, after breaking through to the Ancestral Realm, he merged with heaven and earth, and vaguely caught traces of the power of time in the ocean of the power of heaven and earth.

The laws of time are everywhere; they exist in the growth and decay of all things, in the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and in the movement of the stars.

Wei Wen stood on the mountain peak year after year, trying to use his consciousness to capture the trajectory of the power of time.

The fluctuations in the power of time were extremely weak. If it weren't for his perfected spatial laws, perfected reincarnation laws, perfected nine lower-level laws, and the support of the power of heaven and earth at the Ancestral Realm, it would have been impossible for him to perceive them.

Even so, he only barely touched the threshold of the laws of time; yes, just the threshold.

To grasp the basics of the laws of time, or even to a higher level, obviously requires more time and insight, as well as... a special opportunity; otherwise, it is absolutely impossible.

He withdrew his consciousness and exhaled a long breath. The Law of Time was a superior law in the world of Swallowing the Stars, on par with the Law of Space, and even more profound than the Law of Space.

Even immortal gods may not be able to control the laws of time; only cosmic lords can touch the threshold of the laws of time, and only cosmic masters can comprehend the laws of time to a higher level.

He, a martial artist of the Eternal Star level, actually vaguely sensed the Law of Time after breaking through to the Ancestral Realm in the projected world. If he told anyone, no one would believe it.

"It's a pity... the projection time is almost up, otherwise..."

This time, the projection of his clone, the breakthrough to the Ancestral Realm, and the slightest comprehension of the laws of time consumed too much of his time.

Wei Wen flew down from the mountain peak and returned to the cultivation room of the Dao Sect Heavenly Palace, where he opened the interface where the projection had ended.

The projection has ended, and the memory is flowing back.

Gains from this projection: My cultivation has broken through to the early stage of the Ancestral Realm, and I vaguely sense the existence of the Law of Time.

The energy portion will not be received for the time being, but all insights into the laws will be received.

Approximately forty-five days have passed in the main world.

"How many? Forty-five days have passed?! Could it be related to the Ancestral Realm? Or... related to the Law of Time?" Wei Wen opened his eyes, which seemed to contain shimmering starlight, with a universe constantly manifesting within them.

As he sat up, a completely new sensation arose within him—the nascent form of the laws of time.

Although it was only an extremely faint perception, he had indeed touched the threshold of the laws of time.

His genetic energy cultivation level remains at the peak of the ninth rank of the Constant Star level. The energy portion is temporarily stored in the system, and he has fully absorbed the insights into the laws of time.

The law of time, the true law of supremacy!

With the perfected spatial laws, he has gained another trump card in the battle of geniuses.

Of course, he wouldn't use it lightly. The Law of Time was too astonishing. If a celestial-level martial artist mastered the Law of Time, the entire universe would tremble.

Even if he encounters an accident that leads to defeat, he must not reveal the law of time again; this trump card is destined to be useless.
