The Myriad Laws Origin Sea stretched boundlessly, strange and resplendent. Li Wuyang sat cross-legged upon a "Law Reef" formed from interwoven void and Creation Laws, his mind wholly immersed in this ocean of Great Dao origin. The reef beneath him was not solid matter. Its texture was bizarre—at times illusory as a bubble, at others as heavy as a stellar core. Within it, countless delicate law runes flowed, collided, and evolved like living things, revealing the supreme mysteries of space's creation and the Life Transformation of all things.
