Terrifying Opportunity

Learning secret techniques placed extremely high demands on talent.

It was like advanced mathematics—ordinary people simply could not understand it, or could not learn it at all.

But for certain geniuses, it was as easy as eating and drinking.

As for Jin Yu, who had cheats activated, secret techniques were practically spoon-fed to him by the heavens.

As a favored child of the Original Universe, the Golden Horned Beast was naturally highly attuned to the Law of Gold and the Law of Space. With the talents of three Golden Horned Beast avatars amplified together, that affinity had been pushed to an extremely high level.

Originally, the Golden Horned Beast's talent was far inferior to Bolan's. After all, Golden Horned Beasts generally only rivaled Immortals at the peak of the World Master realm.

But a genius like Bolan could rival ordinary Marquis Immortals, or even surpass them, at the peak of the World Master realm.

Yet Jin Yu now possessed not only a Golden Horned Beast avatar, but also Bolan's genes.

It could be said that the Golden Horned Beast's original talent for the Law of Space, even when amplified, only slightly surpassed Bolan's and was still somewhat inferior to a once-in-ten-million-epochs genius like Kedi.

But after Bolan's talent for the Law of Space was added, Jin Yu's affinity for the Law of Space was already far beyond anything Kedi could compare to.

Even compared to the Stellar-level stages of countless Universe Overlords, he was not inferior in the slightest.

With the Law of Space talents of the Flame God race avatar and Golden Feather Clan avatar added as well, his talent could be said to approach that of a powerful Universe Master.

And one must not forget the boost from the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual. He had already cultivated it to the Third Tribulation, gaining a full twelvefold enhancement.

Jin Yu's talent could now rival the Chaos City Lord's. As long as he did not lie flat and continued cultivating, his eventual achievements would be no lower than the Chaos City Lord's.

And that was under the assumption that nothing changed from here on.

Yet he would gain more avatars in the future, cultivate higher levels of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, and undergo further transformations in his state of mind, talent, and more. The future was filled with endless possibilities.

Thus, under all these enhancements, Jin Yu's law affinity and talent had undoubtedly been amplified to an utterly terrifying degree.

When he selected a Law of Gold secret technique and a Law of Space secret technique and prepared to cultivate them, he vaguely felt something stir within him, as though he had lost something.

"What is going on? Why would cultivating a secret technique trigger this feeling?"

Jin Yu frowned tightly and looked at the Inheritance Wall in confusion.

But faintly, he felt that this sensation had not come from the Inheritance Wall.

His gaze then shifted to another object in this space—the stone tablet.

The sensation instantly grew stronger, as if the feeling that he had lost something was deeply connected to this stone tablet.

"A stone tablet? What is so special about it?" Jin Yu truly could not understand why this was happening.

But neither did he doubt his own intuition. As their strength increased, powerful beings would more or less develop vague senses of fortune and danger.

It was an instinct to seek fortune and avoid disaster, naturally formed after the evolution of life. Jin Yu's was merely clearer than most.

"The stone tablet is important to me? Important how? It is not a Chaos Tablet." Jin Yu stared at the stone tablet in bafflement and muttered irritably.

Stone tablet? Chaos Tablet?

In an instant, that casual remark struck him like lightning.

Jin Yu slowly turned his head in disbelief.

His gaze locked onto the three large characters at the very top of the stone tablet.

Inheritance Wall!

In an instant, he felt an unbearable stabbing pain in his eyes. He simply closed them and relied on his mental power to sense it instead.

"A stone tablet? A Chaos Tablet? Could these three characters have an effect similar to a Chaos Tablet?"

Jin Yu was stunned by his own sudden thought. Though he could already control his body to survive without eating, drinking, or even a heartbeat, his heart now began pounding wildly beyond his control.

Excitement, exhilaration, and anticipation flooded Jin Yu's mind.

"Calm down! Calm down! I will know if I try."

Jin Yu did not dare hope that this stone tablet could rival a Chaos Tablet. That was simply impossible.

There were only fifty-two Chaos Tablets in the entire Human Race. What right did the Gan Wu Country Lord have to possess one?

And to place it openly inside Gan Wu Tower, no less? Had his head been caught in the door of a Supreme Treasure? So long as he had even a shred of brains, the Gan Wu Country Lord could not possibly do something so absurd.

Gan Wu Tower had stood for countless years, yet no special rumors had ever spread from it. Clearly, this was not something easily discovered.

Jin Yu slowly emptied his mind. All of his avatars stopped what they were doing and cooperated with him in analyzing and comprehending it.

As for Babata, he had been locked in a little black room the moment they entered Gan Wu Tower and could not come out. Naturally, he could offer Jin Yu no help.

This was also to prevent intelligent devices from filming or secretly recording the secret technique inheritances.

Though recording them would not be particularly useful anyway.

At this moment, Jin Yu could rely only on himself.

As Jin Yu devoted himself to it wholeheartedly, his mental power finely sensed the fluctuations within the characters. Slowly, he felt the three large characters continuously growing larger.

In his initial perception, the characters had only been a few meters in size.

But as his sensing deepened, the three characters rapidly expanded within his mental perception.

Gradually, the three characters became a hundred meters tall and wide. At that moment, he discovered that the faint fluctuations of the Law of Space were becoming increasingly intense.

"Inheritance Wall" was no longer merely three characters in Jin Yu's perception. It had become thirty strokes.

Every stroke seemed to explain an essence of space.

Yes, essence!

It was as though the Law of Space were being dissected, its simplest component elements displayed before Jin Yu in the form of strokes.

Furthermore, each character seemed to embody one essence.

Every pair of adjacent characters, as well as the complete set of three, formed three complete essences.

Together, neither more nor less, they formed an incredibly profound set of thirty-six essences of the Law of Space.

Jin Yu could not yet judge all this precisely, but he knew that this was a heaven-defying opportunity. Studying the essences of the Law of Space was a path leading straight to the heavens, one that could save him countless detours.

He had never imagined that a mere Gan Wu Tower would contain such a holy relic for cultivation.

"This very first stroke alone was already so profound."

Jin Yu gave up on broadly sensing it and instead focused solely on studying the first stroke.

It was the origin of all Laws of Space.

Thanks to his terrifyingly amplified talent for the Law of Space, that faint and obscure law fluctuation gradually strengthened within his perception.

That left-falling stroke slowly seemed to detach from the stone tablet, twisting through space and merging with the ripples of the Law of Space.

"Following the ripples of the law?"

With an awareness speed comparable to the Universe level, Jin Yu instantly caught countless changes.

That single stroke seemed to embody the ultimate essence of movement techniques—following the fluctuations of the law, crossing billions of miles in a single step.

That single stroke also seemed to embody the ultimate essence of blade techniques—one slash arriving in an instant, cutting through everything.

This was a realm nearly approaching the Dao.
