Senior Brothers Open Their Hearts

"Senior Brother, are the Laws really as exaggerated as you say? Even someone who has comprehended a Domain has no ability to resist?"

Thor felt that his strength had already increased tremendously with the Domain's enhancement. Could Laws really be even more outrageous?

"Resist? You'd be nothing but a living target. Put it this way: to someone who has comprehended Laws, Laws are like a normal person wielding firearms, while a Domain is like a normal person wielding swords and knives."

"How great do you think the gap is between someone with firearms and someone with ordinary blades?"

"Of course, it's also possible to break Laws through sheer strength. If your opponent is a Domain Lord or even a World Lord, they could still kill you instantly even if you're Stellar level and have comprehended Laws. The level of one's power is equally important."

Jin Yu used ordinary people on Earth as an example, giving everyone a vague understanding of the difference between Laws and Domains.

"Then aren't Domains pretty useless? Wouldn't it be enough to directly comprehend Laws? Doesn't that make Domains optional?" Luo Feng interjected.

"You can't put it that way. Domains still need to be comprehended, since they do provide a certain boost to one's strength."

"Under normal circumstances, only after comprehending an eighth or even ninth-layered Domain can one vaguely sense the existence of Laws. Without a heaven-defying opportunity, there's no way to bypass Domains and comprehend Laws directly."

"Furthermore, if you want to break through to the Domain Lord level in the future, you must also comprehend a Domain of the corresponding level. Thus, on the path to becoming a powerhouse, Domains cannot be avoided."

Jin Yu also knew that the Domain Lord level was rather awkward, neither high nor low. For ordinary people, it might be an enormous threshold, but for geniuses who had comprehended Laws, there was not the slightest bottleneck.

Even in the original work, the Domain Lord level had only been mentioned in passing, without much detail.

Jin Yu then taught everyone some more common knowledge about the universe.

"Alright, enough nonsense. The existence of Yun Mo Star must not be revealed to outsiders in the future, not even the slightest bit. You must know that our potential enemy is an Immortal level being barely qualified to be a king. A single thought from them could condemn us to eternal damnation." Jin Yu reminded them once more.

"Don't worry, we understand." Everyone nodded in unison. They had all fought their way through bloodshed and hardship, so they naturally knew what they should and should not do.

"Mm. It's enough that you have a sense of crisis, but there's no need to take it too seriously." Jin Yu looked at the group of junior brothers he had brought together, feeling very satisfied.

"I've already shown them the stick, so naturally I should offer them a sweet date as well." Jin Yu organized his thoughts. "From now on, you may roam freely within the Galaxy Empire. This place has completely become my territory."

"What? Your territory?" Thor was the first to leap up in shock.

"Big Brother, are you serious?" Luo Feng was undoubtedly the most excited. After watching the videos Babata had prepared, he had gained the deepest understanding of the darkness of the universe.

Hong and Jia Yi also looked at Jin Yu expectantly.

After Jin Yu returned, he had naturally prepared anonymous consciousness-sensing helmets for them, allowing them to connect to the universe and learn some basic information.

However, they had never imagined that the Silver Blue Empire of Jin Yu's previous life, now renamed the Galaxy Empire, actually belonged to Jin Yu.

They had previously marveled at the fact that such a powerful empire could undergo a change of dynasty.

Who would have thought that the protagonist of that change stood right before them?

"You must all have been curious about Earth's uniqueness, even if I haven't said it aloud." Jin Yu swept his gaze across the group.

Everyone nodded. A tiny Earth had produced so many geniuses; according to probability alone, that should have been impossible.

Yet the facts were undeniably right in front of them.

"That's right. The greatest peculiarity is that we Earthlings improve our states of mind far, far faster than others."

"Especially you, Hong. Your state of mind has already reached the Sage realm. It would not be an exaggeration to call you the foremost among everyone here."

"After a series of investigations, I found that this situation has both advantages and disadvantages for us."

Jin Yu paused before continuing.

"First, the good news. A strong state of mind allows us to improve more quickly and greatly enhances our ability to resist illusions. When facing danger and desperate situations, it also allows us to unleash greater potential. It is an essential quality for a powerhouse."

"So based on this, you have a better branch path as Warriors. I'll explain it to you in detail later."

At this point, Jin Yu's expression became solemn and grim. "Now that the good news is over, let's discuss the bad news."

Everyone's hearts tightened as they waited for Jin Yu to speak.

"Because of the unique nature of our states of mind, we will inevitably attract the attention of super powerhouses, who will want to claim Earth for themselves."

"When that time comes, the super powerhouses of the universe could kill us with a wave of their hands. We would have no ability to fight back. Even if we somehow survived, our homeland, our Earth, would no longer belong to us."

"So what I want to tell you is this: under no circumstances can you expose the uniqueness of our states of mind. Especially after entering the Five Peak Forces of Humanity in the future—exposing it would be a disaster."

"Anyone who dares reveal it, I, Jin Yu, will kill them even if I have to exhaust everything I possess!" As Jin Yu spoke his final words, his powerful Domain, the Law of Gold, the Law of Space, and boundless killing intent and baleful aura erupted in full force, causing the surrounding space to tremble.

A terrifying pressure, like that of an ancient ferocious beast, descended upon everyone. They could not move at all, as though the slightest disloyal thought would reduce them to ashes.

Jin Yu's powerful and invincible aura filled everyone with terror and despair.

Yet at that moment, the benefits of a powerful state of mind became apparent.

Hong appeared the calmest. Though his expression was grave, he was the least affected by the intimidation.

Thor and Jia Yi instinctively assumed defensive stances, focusing their minds as they waited.

Luo Feng was like a cat with its fur standing on end, brimming with fighting spirit as he resisted with all his strength. Unyielding in his heart and free of distractions, he was ready to counterattack.

However, the intimidation came quickly and vanished just as quickly. After a few seconds, Jin Yu withdrew his aura.

"Senior Brother, Big Brother, don't worry. We will absolutely never reveal anything about our states of mind." Luo Feng and the other three felt the weight lift from their bodies and could not help relaxing.

What they had just felt was too terrifying. It made them realize how incomparably weak they were; none of the predicaments they had encountered in the past had come close to the despair they had felt this time.

But it also made them understand the gravity of the matter.

"We are all Earthlings. We share glory and disgrace. As Earth's strongest people, we must take responsibility for all our compatriots." Jin Yu's tone softened.

He only wanted everyone to take this seriously. He did not wish to sour their relationship.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother. We understand."

"Big Brother, rest assured."

"Next, I'll offer some advice regarding your paths." Jin Yu changed the subject and said no more.

"Mm." The four of them all listened intently.

"Because of the unique nature of your states of mind, your powerful states of mind are exceptionally suited to casting illusions." Seeing their confusion, Jin Yu continued.

"Of course, I'm not saying that you should switch professions and become Illusionists. I'm saying that you are extremely suited to a niche and unpopular profession in the universe: Illusionary Martial Artists."

"Babata will give you a more detailed introduction later. The materials currently available are enough for you to study."

"Powerful Illusionary Martial Artists can accompany their attacks with potent illusions, while a heaven-defying state of mind can greatly amplify the realism of an illusion, causing enemies to fall into it instantly and be killed in a single blow," Jin Yu said slowly and clearly.

Given Thor and Jia Yi's states of mind, their wills had almost reached the Immortal level. Hong was even more terrifying. According to the original work's account of his attempt at the Illusion Sea, if his consciousness had not been too weak, his will would definitely have reached the threshold of the Venerable level.

Such a disparity in willpower was simply the nightmare of Illusionist practitioners. If they followed the path of illusions, they would likewise become their enemies' nightmare.
