All Heavens: Originating from Swallowing the Stars

After Li Tuo finished eating all the meat, soup, and vegetables on his plate, his mother, Sikong Shuang, ordered the alchemical puppet to clean up the rooftop. She then got up, took Li Tuo's little hand, and led him to the edge of the rooftop.

Both mother and son were extraordinary beings, possessing the ability to fly. With a single leap, they soared above a thick layer of clouds in the distance.

Here, thousands of meters above the ground, looking down, the endless ocean, scattered islands, sea creatures floating in the deep sea, and the hazy land in the distance all unfold like a painting.

"The concept of cultivation has existed for countless years. Whether it's ordinary people who constantly strive to become stronger, or extraordinary beings like us who have undergone transformation, or even those high and mighty gods, they are all cultivators."

Sikong Shuang held Li Tuo's small hand as they strolled among the clouds. After pondering for a long time, she began to tell Li Tuo about cultivation.

"All experience tells us that understanding the rules of the universe is always more important than simply training the physical body and accumulating energy."

"For ordinary cultivators, cultivating battle qi and accumulating magical power are certainly useful, but to truly and significantly improve their combat strength, they must comprehend the natural world and reach the state of oneness with heaven and man. This is a necessary condition for achieving transcendence."

As this Saint-level female transcendent mage spoke, her aura suddenly became ethereal and uncertain, and her entire figure seemed to blur, merging into this world.

This is not magic, but an external manifestation of the state of harmony between man and nature. When man and nature are in harmony, the absorption of the energy of heaven and earth can be accelerated to the greatest extent.

Li Tuo pondered, and his aura changed along with his mother's, effortlessly entering a state of harmony between man and nature.

Sikong Shuang nodded in satisfaction, maintaining her state of harmony with nature, and continued to stroll among the clouds, holding her son's little hand:

"But when you reach the extraordinary realm, the unity of man and nature is just the foundation. To exert your power to a greater extent, we must get closer to heaven and earth, understand nature, and seek something more profound from nature."

"Whoosh!"

As she spoke, a staff about the length of an arm appeared in Sikong Shuang's hand. With a gentle wave, streams of clear water appeared in the world. The water flowed naturally, as if explaining some profound mystery.

The fundamental law of water? But it doesn't quite seem like it...

Li Tuo squinted, flew with great interest to a clump of flowing water, and sensed its changing trajectory, a smile appearing on his face.

"When we comprehend the universe to a certain degree, its rules will become concrete in our hearts—that is the realm of all things. I comprehend the mysteries of water in all things, and all my subsequent abilities come from the mysteries of water."

"When the understanding of the rules reaches a certain level, it is the rudimentary form of the true meaning. Continuing to progress is what is called the true meaning."

Sikong Shuang beckoned with her finger, and a stream of water swirled around Li Tuo a few times before she spoke.

"True meaning is divided into nine grades, from nine to one, gradually becoming stronger. I currently possess the fifth grade Illusion True Meaning and the fourth grade Gravity True Meaning."

"Phantom, gravity..."

Li Tuo muttered the names of the true meanings that Sikong Shuang had mentioned, his brows furrowing slightly.

From his perspective of the world of Devouring Stars, these two truths seem to be completely unrelated. Gravity seems to be a change in the fundamental law of earth, and the phantom is perhaps a change in the fundamental law of light.

"Yes, and the reason your father is called the 'Knight of Heavenly Sound' is because he mastered the third-grade True Meaning—the True Meaning of Sound."

"Sonic?"

What kind of law is this extension of?

Li Tuo was ultimately just a realm lord in the primordial universe, far from seeing the essence of the laws, and couldn't help but scratch his head.

"Yes, the true meaning of the third tone is a very, very comprehensive true meaning."

Sikong Shuang explained it to Li Tuo in detail, making Li Tuo deeply aware of the power of the true meaning of sound.

Li Chen, the Heavenly Sound Knight, is only a little over two hundred years old. He is the master of the Sea God Palace, one of the extraordinary powers, and he relies on the true meaning of the third grade of sound.

The sounds of the extraordinary world are very diverse. In addition to surface-level infrasound and ultrasound, there are also many deep-seated, mysterious side sound waves.

The sounds of life, thought, destruction, disturbance, slumber, doom, and soul... These mysterious sonic waves are difficult to hear without dedicated time to perceive them, but if mastered, they can play a tremendous role in battle.

For example, when facing a large number of weak enemy troops, you don't even need to take action; simply by triggering a sufficiently large area of ​​death sounds, you can easily kill a massive army.

For example, powerful individuals who can hear the sounds of misfortune can effectively sense their future misfortunes and avoid harm. By collecting these sounds of misfortune, these extraordinary sound waves can be transformed into a curse of misfortune that is extremely difficult to avoid.

For example, the Voice of Life can not only effectively detect the enemy's health and injury status in battle, but also has a certain healing effect, and can even help conceal life force and help escape.

There are also highly disruptive sounds in battle, such as the Disruptive Sound, the Sleeping Sound, and the Thought Sound, which can easily force out the opponent's weaknesses, whether in one-on-one or one-on-many situations.

As an extraordinary being who has mastered the true meaning of sound, Li Chen theoretically possesses all extraordinary sounds, which gives him unique advantages in all aspects.

Wow, that's amazing!

Li Tuo listened blankly to his mother's story. He had never heard of such a strange supernatural power before, and it seemed to be very difficult to avoid.

As he pondered this, he suddenly realized that the Ancestral God Sect seemed to have a lineage called the Demonic Sound God General, which might also involve similar applications of extraordinary sound waves...

If I have the chance in the future, I might buy a set of the Demonic Sound God General's legacy to study.

"The stronger the true meaning, the stronger the ability and combat power it can bring. Take your father as an example. He is an extremely strong third-grade true meaning demigod. Ordinary fifth-grade true meaning demigods can only be toyed with and played with in front of him, and fourth-grade true meaning demigods are only barely qualified to fight him."

Sikong Shuang, unaware of Li Tuo's thoughts, continued to explain the importance of True Meaning to her son. She had high expectations for Li Tuo and hoped that he could also become a powerful third-grade True Meaning Extraordinary.

"Don't worry, Mother, I won't let you down." Li Tuo squeezed his mother's hand and nodded deeply.

"Well, you'll soon become a Saint-level being, and battles will be inevitable. There are some very troublesome True Meanings that you must be careful of, such as the True Meaning of Shadow Space and the True Meaning of Spatial Exile, those are very difficult to deal with..."

Sikong Shuang explained the true meaning of those strange methods to Li Tuo, and even took out a thick book from her spatial artifacts, and carefully explained several types of difficult true meanings.

Little did anyone know that although Li Tuo was listening attentively, part of his thoughts were lost in deep contemplation.

The importance of laws outweighs the development of the physical body. This is a common understanding among practitioners of the system of rules and mysteries. Even Li Tuo thought so for a period of time.

However, since coming into contact with the vast Hunyuan spacetime, his stereotypes have gradually changed. Although the rules are profound, they are only one of many cultivation systems.

When the physical body becomes strong enough, it is also capable of shattering all changes in the laws of nature and breaking through everything with force.

For example, the strongest warrior training system he obtained before his reincarnation—that Sword Emperor had killed countless opponents with complex and mysterious systems of rules with just his fists.

As a martial artist, Li Tuo actually admired the Sword Emperor's philosophy of overcoming all techniques with sheer force, and he desperately wanted to be that powerful himself.

Therefore, Li Tuo's clone in the Snow Eagle World is preparing to simultaneously cultivate the system of rules and the system of the strongest warrior.
