Spacetime Fusion, Haotian Breaks Through!

The brutality of the battlefield secretly startled the great powers across the Primordial Wilderness.

Within Kunlun Mountain, the dojo of the Three Pure Ones, Laozi opened his eyes. The supreme treasure Taiji Pattern in his hand rippled with a soft halo.

"The Witch-Demon Two Clans possess overwhelming Combat Power. If this continues, I fear it will shake the very foundations of the Primordial Wilderness..."

Yuanshi sat on his Cushion, his expression grave. "The Chaos Bell's might is indeed formidable. At this rate, the Witch Clan will be pushed to the brink sooner or later."

Tongtian said nothing, but his eyes blazed with battle intent, quickly suppressed. Though he longed to test the Immortal-Slaying Formation, he knew this was not the time, so he could only watch in silence.

As the Three Pure Ones observed the battle quietly, on the East Sea coast at Penglai Immortal Island, outside Penglai Hall—

Jade Pool, clad in a light purple Daoist robe, stood silently at the entrance of the seclusion chamber. Her gaze fell on the tightly shut stone door, her eyes filled with worry.

Ever since the third lecture at Purple Firmament Palace ended, Haotian had been in seclusion. Over two thousand Yuanhui had now passed.

She could feel the Time-Space Law fluctuations emanating from within the chamber growing increasingly intense. Sometimes the waves condensed like steel, other times they flowed like water—clearly, he had reached a critical breakthrough stage.

She held her breath, not daring to move even a step, afraid that the slightest disturbance might affect the person inside.

Inside the seclusion chamber, Haotian sat cross-legged on a Cushion. Around him swirled pale-golden Space Law Flow Light and faint-silver Time Law glimmers. The two streams of light intertwined, forming a faint Taiji Pattern.

At his brow, several translucent fragments hovered—the broken remnants of the Jade Plate of Creation. The golden and silver Law runes on the fragments flickered simultaneously, presenting the essence of Time-Space Law as images within Haotian's Sea of Consciousness.

He could clearly see every fold in space, every flow of time, and glimpse the overlapping trajectories of countless parallel spaces. He could also capture the fine imprints of years within the River of Time.

Those originally obscure mysteries of time and space, now illuminated by the Jade Plate fragments, became as clear as the lines on his palm.

"Breaking through both Time and Space Laws to the fifth level doesn't require separate comprehension, but the synchronized fusion of both with the Chaos Origin," Haotian thought to himself.

He had previously comprehended the Time and Space Laws to forty percent each, easily achieving Star Domain Teleportation and Short-Time Reversal. But to break through both to fifty percent, he had to shatter the boundary between using the Laws individually and merging them into the Origin.

He needed to completely fuse the Time and Space Laws with his own Chaos Origin, making the twin Laws a part of his flesh and Primordial Spirit.

He activated the Primordial Heart Sutra, and the Chaos Origin in his dantian instantly boiled. Countless strands of Chaos Spiritual Energy surged from the spiritual veins of Penglai Immortal Island, pouring into his body through the pores along his meridians, nourishing every inch of flesh and every wisp of Primordial Spirit.

The profound mystery of the Primordial Heart Sutra revealed itself fully at this moment. It not only accelerated the comprehension of the twin Laws but also transformed the violent Chaos Spiritual Energy into the gentlest, purest Origin power, building a bridge for the fusion of the twin Laws and the Origin.

In Haotian's Sea of Consciousness, countless golden Space Law runes and faint-silver Time Law runes intertwined and approached the Chaos Origin together. But the moment they touched, the Origin's heavy force repelled them.

Space Law was sharp as a blade; Time Law flowed like water. Though their attributes complemented each other, they formed a dual opposition against the heaviness of the Chaos Origin—like fire and water struggling to merge with earth.

Once, twice, three times... Over a dozen attempts, all ended in failure. A few times, the collision of the twin Laws and the Origin even sent sharp pain through his meridians.

But Haotian did not lose heart. He sank his consciousness into the Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation, carefully observing the flow patterns of the time-space runes on the fragment.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Time and space inherently complement each other. If the two first wove themselves into a stable Time-Space Taiji, then wrapped the Chaos Origin in that Taiji form, perhaps the opposing force could be resolved!

With this thought, Haotian first guided the Time and Space Laws within his body to merge on their own. The pale-golden Space Flow Light and faint-silver Time Flow Light spiraled in his Sea of Consciousness, gradually forming a miniature Time-Space Taiji. As the Taiji rotated, the sharpness of space was softened by the flow of time, and the ethereality of time was anchored by the stability of space.

Then, he controlled this Time-Space Taiji, slowly enveloping the Chaos Origin. As expected, the Taiji form formed by the twin Laws acted like a cushion. It neutralized the sharpness of Space Law and the ethereality of Time Law, while achieving a balance of hardness and softness with the heaviness of the Chaos Origin.

Golden Space runes and faint-silver Time runes embedded themselves into the Chaos Origin together. The Origin actively breathed in the power of the twin Laws. The three were no longer opposing entities but displayed a state of mutual nourishment and symbiotic prosperity.

Joy surged in Haotian's heart. He accelerated the activation of the Primordial Heart Sutra. More Chaos Spiritual Energy poured into his body, driving the fusion process forward.

In his Sea of Consciousness, the Time-Space Taiji and the Chaos Origin entangled ever tighter. The originally clear boundaries gradually blurred, beginning to form a three-colored light mass (gold, silver, gray) woven from the Time-Space Laws and the Chaos Origin.

The twin Time and Space Law light streams around him grew even more condensed.

They even began to seep into his physical body in tandem, a faint interplay of gold and silver luster rising on the surface of his skin.

With every breath, he could stir a slight tremor in the surrounding space-time, the very air rippling with fine space-time undulations.

Gradually, the fusion between the twin Laws within the three-colored light orb and the Chaos Origin grew deeper and deeper. Only a single, final, thin barrier remained unbroken.

Haotian could clearly sense that once this barrier was shattered, the twin Laws of Time and Space would fully merge into the Chaos Origin.

His realm would then follow the momentum and break through to the threshold of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin.

At this moment, the fluctuations of the Space-Time Law within the secluded chamber reached their peak.

Gold and silver twin light streams shot up into the sky, nearly breaking through the formation barrier of the chamber.

Haotian's eyes were tightly shut, and the Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation on his brow blazed with intense light.

Within his Sea of Consciousness, the three-colored light orb spun violently. That final barrier was thinning, bit by bit...

Finally, at a certain moment, the barrier that had long stood firm deep within Haotian's Sea of Consciousness shattered with a resounding boom.

The stagnant sensation that had previously locked him at the peak of the Golden Immortal of the Origin completely dissipated.

The Primordial Heart Sutra circulated at a speed far exceeding its usual pace, and Chaos Spiritual Energy surged into his Dantian like rivers flowing into the sea.

His cultivation base, as if riding a thunderbolt from the Ninth Heaven, began to soar. First, it steadily stepped into the First Heaven of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin.

Immediately after, his Dao Foundation trembled, his Law Comprehension deepened abruptly, and in the blink of an eye, he broke through into the Second Heaven, finally coming to a slow halt at the Third Heaven.

The moment the breakthrough occurred, the faint gold and silver light streams swirling around Haotian suddenly swelled, shooting up like two rainbows straight into the sky. The clouds over the East Sea were instantly dyed in two colors.

The pale gold patterns of the Space Law and the pale silver patterns of the Time Law intertwined and coiled, transforming into a Space-Time Heavenly Curtain covering a thousand li.

Above the curtain, Law runes moved like living creatures, sometimes folding into transparent spatial wrinkles, as if one could glimpse scenes from neighboring star domains.

Sometimes they rippled in layers, causing the scenery beneath the curtain to experience brief reversals.

A petal that had just fallen returned to its branch; a seabird that had just flown past retreated back into midair.

Even the direction of the sea breeze briefly reversed, fully displaying the profound mystery of the Time Law.

Furthermore, fine Space Rifts flickered at the edges of the curtain.

The Chaos Airflow leaking from the rifts mingled with the spiritual energy of the Primordial Wilderness, transforming into a pale purple mist that wrapped around Penglai Immortal Island like a light veil.
