Chaos

Chaos City.

As Holy Land for cultivation for the entire human race in the universe, it is shrouded in Chaos Qi flow and has remained unchanged since ancient times.

King Tong Nan said that he would handle this matter. He would first communicate with Hong and Thunder God about the candidates for their apprenticeship and then inform Lin Yan directly, who would then relay the message.

Lin Yan was much more at ease about this, after all, King Tong Nan teacher was meticulous and thoughtful, and would not make any mistakes. Moreover, with his guidance, Hong and Thunder God would receive more attention.

He then set off for the City Lord's Mansion to study the "Universe Chaos Stele".

"Over the past century, I have made great progress in my Law Comprehension. I haven't studied the Chaos Stele for so long, and I have many questions in my mind. I am sure I will gain a lot from it."

Lin Yan walked through the alley and soon arrived at the main street. "In the previous thirty years, I used up seven opportunities for enlightenment and crossed the 15-level Tongtian Bridge, for a total of eight opportunities for enlightenment."

"However, we'll use it once today, and there's no rush for the rest. The real use will come when we retreat to Chaos City for cultivation."

The best time to comprehend the laws is when one Law Comprehension accumulated a deep understanding of them. The opportunities to comprehend the Chaos Stele are ultimately limited and should not be wasted.

His figure moved like lightning.

Soon Lin Yan arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion's Mansion occupied a huge area, and he knew the way well and quickly arrived at the tall and spacious secret corridor. Along the corridor, he could see huge bronze doors on both sides.

Lin Yan walked to the bronze gate inscribed with the word "Universe".

"Lord Kandri." Lin Yan respectfully bowed to the three-eyed old man guarding the gate.

Kandri is an ancient being in the universe with extraordinary strength. Other super-powerful beings from various races in the universe call him the "Guardian of the Chaos Stele," and he has guarded the cultivation chamber of the Chaos Stele for over a million epochs.

His most famous Clone Technique.

Each of his clones possesses almost 60% of his power! Therefore, using clones to explore dangerous places is a very safe thing to do, and even if the clones are destroyed, it will not have a significant impact on Kandri.

Looking at the 52 clones of the three-eyed old man outside the 52 cultivation secret rooms, Lin Yan couldn't help but think to himself, "It's somewhat similar to my Green Line Devouring Worm's Clone Technique, but the combat power of the Green Line Devouring Worm clone is not a fixed 60%. It can only be said that they each have their own advantages and disadvantages."

The Green Line Devouring Worm's Clone Technique is not fixed in strength. If it is a single clone, under the control of its "self-awareness", it can exert 100% of its combat power. However, if all clones unleash their combat power at the same time, the strength will be greatly reduced, and it is impossible to reach such an amazing level of 60%.

Certainly.

The limit of the Green Line Devouring Worm is to Thousand Clones. In terms of quantity, Kandri's Clone Technique is also quite numerous, but it is far inferior to the Green Line Devouring Worm.

"Lin Yan?" Kandri was somewhat surprised, but he didn't ask any further questions. He closed his eyes slightly, opened them a moment later, and smiled, "You now have eight chances to comprehend the Universe Chaos Stele?"

His attitude seemed extremely friendly.

"Yes." Lin Yan nodded. "I have fully understood the first three pictures, so I need to start studying the later ones."

"Truly, the younger generation is formidable," Kandri laughed. "To have completely grasped the Law essence of all the Universe Origin Law in such a short time—your record is unbreakable!"

"There's no one in the secret chamber now, you can go in and meditate directly." Kandri smiled and pointed to the huge bronze door behind him. With a rumbling sound, the bronze door slowly opened, and a dense Chaos Qi flow swirled inside, making the secret chamber appear very blurry.

"Thank you, sir." Lin Yan bowed respectfully, then stepped directly into the cultivation chamber.

Inside the cultivation chamber, Chaos Qi flow swirled around a massive Chaos Stele.

"There are indeed few people of the Universe Lineage. In all my attempts to comprehend it, I only had to wait in line once, and most of the time, I was the only one there." Lin Yan walked directly into the depths of the secret chamber and stood in front of the Universe Chaos Stele.

In the overall ranking of the 52 Chaos Tablets, the Great Axe Chaos Stele is first, and the Universe Chaos Stele is second.

The Great Axe Chaos Stele was left by the "Great Axe Founder," while the Universe Chaos Stele was left by the "Chaos City Lord." The Great Axe Lineage has the most members, while the Universe Lineage has the fewest.

Because the "Universe Chaos Stele" combines the study of space and time, its difficulty far surpasses that of other Chaos Stele. Even a genius like Bolan could not master it, let alone others.

Lin Yan's gaze swept over the first three pictures. The wondrous imagery formed by lightning and raindrops contained incredible magic, illustrating the fundamental laws of Time Law and Space Law.

What once seemed incredibly mysterious to Lin Yan now appears as clear as lines on his palm, devoid of any secrets. He has completely seen through the essence of these three paintings.

He continued looking at the Fourth Diagram.

That was Stellar Diagram, with two stars orbiting each other, forming a twin star structure. Surrounding it were swirling patterns that seemed to be rotating around each other, directly drawing Lin Yan's consciousness completely into it.

This moment!

Lin Yan and the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone were completely immersed in the "Stellar Diagram," and the twin stars gave rise to many Conception in their minds.

The Fourth Diagram to sixth images are incredibly complex, but in reality, they are an integration of the Space essence and the Time essence, which combine to create even more wondrous changes.

The Law essence is just like ingredients.

All kinds of delicious dishes are made up of the most basic ingredients. By starting with the essence, studying these three pictures will save a lot of time.

"I came here this time to comprehend the Fourth Diagram to sixth diagrams. Once I have fully understood these three diagrams, I will reach the King Rank level in Law Comprehension and be able to break through to the 18th Floor of the Tongtian Bridge." Lin Yan's purpose was very clear.

The fifth image is Starry Sky Map, with 136 planets orbiting each other in the void, seemingly forming their own space-time.

The sixth picture is Star River Map, with countless stars floating and sinking in endless nebulae and dust, forming a vast and boundless star river.

Guided by the Universe Chaos Stele, Lin Yan's spiritual consciousness continuously gained a wealth of insights into the three diagrams. Combined with the confirmation of his previous insights into "The Primordial Beginning," this brought him tremendous gains.

Once you grasp the subtlety of it, you'll feel incredibly joyful.

Furthermore, since the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone was in the Primordial Universe, the difference in the Time Flow Rate allowed the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone's consciousness to immerse itself in the comprehension of the Chaos Stele, gaining more insights.

Suddenly--

"Come out!" a voice entered his mind.

Although the sound wasn't loud at first, Lin Yan still woke up from this profound state. He looked at the Chaos Stele with a sense of reluctance, and then his gaze swept over it again, seeing the seventh picture.

The seventh picture depicts what appears to be a strange monster.

"Hmm?" Lin Yan was subtly moved.

Previously, he could only sense the Origin Great Dao as illustrated in the first six pictures, but from the seventh picture onwards, they were just pure pictures, and he could not sense any mystery at all.

But now he could feel that the strange monster seemed to have come to life, and his mind and will could instantly immerse themselves in it.

"Is it because my Law Comprehension has improved?" he wondered to himself.

Lin Yan quickly dismissed the idea, because he felt as if every cell in his body was cheering and his whole body was burning up.

"Could it be the 'Black Hole Sacred Body'? And the 'Primordial Beginning'?" Lin Yan immediately thought of the monstrous phantoms that surrounded his body when he used the 'Black Hole Force Field'.

That Monster Phantom is the monster picture in the seventh picture.

"Come out!" "Come out!" "Come out!"...

His mind was just immersed in the seventh picture, but the voice kept echoing and getting louder in Lin Yan's mind, making it impossible for him to comprehend it anymore. Lin Yan took one last look at the strange monster picture and then flew outside.

Outside the meditation chamber, someone was already waiting.

Rumble...

After the cultivator entered the secret chamber, the bronze door closed again.

Lin Yan frowned. After thinking for a moment, he saw the three-eyed old man standing next to him and asked, "Lin Yan Kandri, I have something I would like to ask you. Would it be convenient?"

An ordinary person would certainly not be able to do that.

However, this is Lin Yan.

Kandri smiled warmly, "Please speak freely."

Lin Yan asked, "I would like to ask, what is the seventh image on the Universe Chaos Stele? What other meaning does the image of the strange monster have?"

He usually doesn't think about these issues, but after seeing them just now, he can't stop thinking about them.

So he went directly to ask the three-eyed old man "Kandri" who guarded the Chaos Stele for advice.

Kandri laughed and said, "On these 52 Chaos Tablets, all the pictures are Law Secret Patterns. Law Secret Patterns are equivalent to the language of the Law, and the Law essence is the most fundamental character that constitutes the language."

Lin Yan listened attentively.

The Universe Origin Law are incredibly profound, yet they can be expressed through these secret patterns. The Law essence is analogous to the strokes of Chinese characters, or the many letters of the English alphabet.

"Have you already grasped the mysteries of that monster diagram?" Kandri asked. "For any Chaos Stele, even if you understand the first six diagrams, it's still very difficult to comprehend the mysteries of that monster diagram because... it's too profound."

"I wouldn't say I fully understood it, but I did have a slight understanding," Lin Yan said.

"Haha, and the Universe Chaos Stele is the most special one among them," Kandri laughed.

"Hmm?" Lin Yan asked, puzzled.

Instead of explaining directly, Kandri asked, "Lin Yan, have you ever heard of the Innate Beast God?"

Lin Yan nodded. "I've heard of it."

Not only have I heard of it, but I have also absorbed the Beast God's Blood. In the future, I will surely come into contact with the Path of the Beast God.

Kandri nodded, then began to explain, "The Eight Great Beast Gods are powerful beings that were born directly at the birth of the universe, possessing strength comparable to the Lord of the Universe."

"The Operation Rule can be divided into metal, wood, water, fire, earth, light, wind, lightning, time, space... or into Eight Fusion Laws, and the Eight Great Beast Gods are the embodiment of the Eight Fusion Laws."

"Every move they make naturally contains the Fusion Law. The Beast God itself is Secret Pattern Diagram that perfectly interprets the Fusion Law."

Lin Yan nodded; this was no secret to the Universe Venerable.

Not to mention that Kandri is the guardian of the Chaos Stele, so it's impossible that he wouldn't have this knowledge.

Kandri continued, "And the seventh diagram on those Chaos Stele is Secret Pattern Diagram Space Law or Time Law. By comprehending teleportation, Strangulation, and sealing, and then merging the three, you get a complete diagram of the Law Secret Patterns of space. The same applies to the Time Law."

"The Secret Pattern Diagram of these two laws are in the form of strange beasts, because the Great Dao leads to the same destination... So the seventh pattern on these 52 Chaos Tablets is also similar. The difference is the difference in the path. The Chaos Stele is used to guide others in cultivation. It expounds the Origin Great Dao of the Creator."

"It's the path, not the destination."

Kandri sighed, "Some people have even suggested that these creatures may have actually existed in the very beginning of the universe, but... that's just a conjecture, there's no actual proof."

Lin Yan couldn't help but ask, "Lord Kandri, what is the special feature of the seventh image on the Universe Chaos Stele that you mentioned?"

Kandri said seriously, "This is because... the monster diagram on the Universe Chaos Stele is different. It is completely different from the true spatial or Time Law Secret Pattern Diagram. It combines the two Law Secret Patterns in a completely new way to create a new monster diagram!"

"This monster image is actually a manifestation of the laws governing the Operation Rule!"

Speaking of which...

The three-eyed old man's face was full of admiration as he exclaimed, "I simply can't believe that someone would dare to walk such a path, and this person is none other than the Great Existence of our Virtual Universe Company — the Chaos City Lord!"

"Could it be?" Lin Yan was taken aback, a vague guess forming in his mind.

Seeing Lin Yan's expression, Kandri smiled and said, "You should have guessed it by now. The true path explored by the 'Universe Chaos Stele' is not the cultivation of both space and time, but the more terrifying and awe-inspiring 'Space-Time Fusion Law'!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan nearly coughed up blood.

After all that talk, you're just kidding me?

The Space-Time Fusion Law? Isn't that nonsense?

Lin Yan was quite clear about this. There were many universe lords who cultivated the Fusion Law, but they all Eight Great Beast God Paths, which had nothing to do with the Space-Time Fusion Law.

Does the Space-Time Fusion Law exist?

Of course it exists. In fact, Lin Yan was very clear that the ten fundamental laws could all be integrated into a single "Chaos Law".

But this is the ultimate goal of the law!

Without a doubt, the Space-Time Fusion Law is definitely the most critical and difficult aspect of the "Chaos Law".

Without pausing, Kandri continued, "Of course, this is an idealized expression, an exploration, but the road is too long, so long that there is no end in sight."

He smiled and said, "This is what the Chaos City Lord said during one of his lectures. He said very precisely that the Space-Time Fusion Law exists."

"Space is the extensiveness of the existence of matter, while time is the continuity and sequence of the process of the movement of matter. Only when time and space are integrated can they constitute the basic structure of the universe."

"We can perceive independent Time Law and Space Law, and even merge the laws of Gold Law and Space Law, etc., but this is fundamentally different from the Time-Space Fusion, because when we try to merge time and space, a 'change' occurs!"

Lin Yan frowned slightly. "Changes?"

"Yes, change." Kandri nodded. "When spacetime is connected, it's as if there's an additional measure on top of the original, an incomprehensible dimension. Ordinary Law Secret Patterns are two-dimensional or three-dimensional, but with Time-Space Fusion, you see one side of it from one angle, and you can derive countless possibilities from that side."

"Did you see the Ninth Diagram? Those countless strange monsters represent all sorts of possibilities, with no end in sight. In fact, there is a strange connection between them, but even this connection is still subject to change."

"Why is the Universe Chaos Stele considered the most difficult?" Kandri exclaimed. "Because the early stages of this path are the most difficult, and even from the perspective of the Chaos City Lord, it is still the most difficult. However... it is also the strongest, because its difficulty stems from its infinite possibilities!"

The image of the Ninth Diagram appeared in Lin Yan's mind; it depicted countless strange and monstrous beasts.

He asked, "What about the Tenth Diagram?"

The Tenth Diagram is completely blank except for a small dot in the center.

Kandri shook his head. "The Universe Tongtian Bridge has a 30th level, but the Universe Chaos Stele does not have Tenth Diagram, nor does the 'Chaos Principle' have a tenth volume. In fact, at that level, one does not Law Comprehension the Tongtian Bridge to heaven according to the laws, but rather Self-created secret technique!"

"Of course, for such a being, the Tongtian Bridge is meaningless."

Lin Yan raised an eyebrow. "But there is a dot on the Tenth Diagram."

"Lin Yan, those aren't Law Secret Patterns," Kandri smiled. "They're saying that this path has only just begun!"

"The path of the Chaos City Lord is only just beginning. Perhaps after countless epochs, the true Secret Pattern Diagram of the Space-Time Fusion Law will appear on the Tenth Diagram."

Although he said that, he knew it was unlikely.

Lin Yan fell silent for a moment.

Is that... really the path of the Chaos City Lord? At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the heaven-defying secret technique, the "Virtual Universe."

"Kandri your explanation, Lord Candri," Lin Yan said respectfully.

Kandri waved with a smile, "It's nothing."

Lin Yan then left the City Lord's Mansion. He first found a place to stay and sort out and digest his insights from studying the Chaos Stele, and then organized his thoughts.

Several days later.

Lin Yan, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, slowly opened them. He stood up, gazed at the endless vastness Chaos City, and then flew onto the street.

However, he did not choose to leave the Initial Universe, but instead came to the City Lord's Mansion again, to the wide corridor of the cultivation chamber.

"Lin Yan, is there anything else?" Kandri asked with a smile when he saw him.

Lin Yan respectfully said, "Lord Kandri, I would like to study the Chaos Stele once more."

Kandri frowned. "It's possible, but the effect of comprehending it this way isn't very good."

At this point, he saw the determination in Lin Yan's expression and had no intention of stopping him. The bronze gate behind him slowly opened with a rumble.

"Thank you, sir." Lin Yan thanked him and stepped forward. He looked at the Chaos Qi flow swirling in the secret room and suddenly stopped.

"Lord Kandri, does that 'beast' have a name?" he asked.

Kandri gave Lin Yan a deep look, then said seriously, "Its name is 'Chaos'!"
