Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Outside a massive city built entirely from silver ore, Lynn slowly descended, looking at the city before him with some curiosity.

The silver city exuded an aura of nobility and antiquity!

Floating Light City, one of the ten great cities within a billion kilometers of Moon Shadow Mansion!

After lining up and paying the entrance fee of one Ink Stone, Lynn followed the crowd and slowly entered Floating Light City.

Within Floating Light City, Lynn curiously examined the large buildings around him. No one knew how many billions of years this city had existed, but at a glance, its ancient and luxurious atmosphere washed over him.

Shops, restaurants, taverns, clothing stores, divine artifact stores...

After walking down an entire street, the various unusual goods had greatly broadened Lynn's horizons.

Looking around as he walked, he soon arrived at the busiest and most bustling part of Floating Light City.

There stood three magnificent castles.

Black Sand Castle, formed entirely from condensed black sand; Muya Castle, built wholly from silver ore; and Demon Castle, carved with eerie demon designs.

Of them, Black Sand Castle and Demon Castle belonged to the Destruction Sovereign, while Muya Castle belonged to the Muya Main God!

Demon Castle served only demons, Black Sand Castle was a black market, while Muya Castle was the most legitimate trading venue.

Following the crowd, Lynn slowly entered Muya Castle. As this was his first time in Floating Light City, he naturally had no desire to trade at Black Sand Castle.

Wandering around Muya Castle, Lynn quickly found the place where books were sold.

History, culture, economics... The books in Muya Castle could be called endless, encompassing everything. Lynn carefully searched through them, then suddenly his eyes lit up as his gaze fell on a thick book.

Written on its cover were the words, "A Brief Overview of the Profound Mysteries of the Seven Elemental Laws"!

Although the Elemental Laws were vast and boundless, the Supreme Planes contained countless experts. Over countless years, they had long since classified these Elemental Laws into six great profound mysteries—wind excluded.

Any two of the six profound mysteries could fuse, and any three could fuse... Different combinations, when applied to different attacks, could unleash incomparably wondrous power.

Although Lynn possessed the complete Lightning Law and complete Flame Law within his soul, he had never really understood what profound mysteries these two laws contained.

Now that he had this book to guide him, everything would naturally become clear at a glance.

Picking up the thick book, Lynn directly flipped to the section on the Dark Element Law.

The Dark Law was divided into six great profound mysteries: "Dark Element," "Shadow Clone Technique," "Evil," "Corrosion of Darkness," "Devour," and "Black Prison Space"!

Besides brief introductions and explanations of the power of these six profound mysteries, the book also included several simple applications.

"So the soul attack profundity within the Dark Law is called 'Corrosion of Darkness'!" Lynn nodded. "And there's this spatial profundity, 'Black Prison Space'! Judging from the name, it seems geared toward trapping enemies and provoking fear within them!"

Of the Dark Element Law, Lynn had only comprehended the Shadow Clone Technique. He did not carefully read the applications that followed.

Rustle!

The pages flipped rapidly as Lynn turned to the section on the Lightning Element Law!

The Lightning Element Law was likewise divided into six great profound mysteries: "Lightning Element," "Lightning Body Technique," "Power of Destruction," "Flicker," "Power of Judgment," and "Electromagnetic Space"!

"So that's what Electromagnetic Space means!" As Lynn read, a look of realization appeared on his face.

As everyone knew, electrodes were divided into positive and negative poles. Electromagnetic Space used the ionization of all things between positive and negative electrodes to form a space of electromagnetic radiation.

He remembered that in the original novel, when Linley had taken part in escorting Salomon, the eldest of the Edwards Three Brothers had used such a move to form an electromagnetic space, instantly annihilating more than three hundred clones of the White-horned Elder.

This move combined control and wide-area material attack. It was one of the higher profound mysteries of the Lightning Element Law.

"'Flicker' should be Lightning Speed! 'Power of Destruction' is the material attack of the Lightning Element!" Lynn could not help becoming immersed in the book.

After a long while, having finished reading the introduction to the Lightning Element, he turned to the section on the Fire Element Law.

The Flame Law was also composed of six great profound mysteries: "Fire Element," "Flame Body Technique," "Scorching Heat," "Soul of Fire," "Explosion Profundity," and "Flame Space"!

However, although Lynn possessed the complete Flame Element Law within his soul, he had yet to successfully comprehend even a single profundity, so he did not understand much about it.

"The Beast God of the Orlando Plane probably comprehended the 'Soul of Fire' profundity!" Recalling his earlier battle with the Beast God, Lynn thought to himself, This sort of attack aimed at the soul really is bizarre!

"In the original novel, Qing Huo used a move that transformed his body into flames to kill Sadista, a Six-star Demon from Hell! That move must have fused at least four profound mysteries! Its core should have been 'Soul of Fire'!" Lynn then recalled a great battle from the original novel that had taken place in the Yulan Plane. Perhaps once I comprehend enough, I'll be able to use that move as well!

Since he had yet to comprehend the other laws, he did not continue reading. After paying for the book and storing it in his Spatial Ring, Lynn continued wandering through the castle.

Very soon, he discovered another item that interested him: "Soul Golden Beads"!

One had to know that the soul was the most fundamental part of a person. The stronger one's soul, the easier it was to cultivate the Elemental Laws. These Soul Golden Beads were treasures capable of strengthening the soul.

Soul Golden Beads were extremely precious treasures on the Material Planes, because one had to kill tens of millions of people before an expert who cultivated the Laws of Death could refine a single bead from their Soul Power.

In the original novel, the god-level expert Great Wizard Beaumont had set off a monstrous slaughter in the Yulan Plane in order to obtain Soul Golden Beads, massacring hundreds of millions of humans.

But in Hell? Even the weakest were Saint Domain experts. Killing merely dozens of Saint Domain experts was enough to refine a Soul Golden Bead!

"One Soul Golden Bead costs a hundred thousand Ink Stones." Lynn nodded.

He then looked at another soul-nourishing item for sale, "amethyst." Amethyst was far cheaper than Soul Golden Beads; one piece cost only ten thousand Ink Stones.

Its price was only one-tenth as much, yet its benefits to the soul were roughly comparable.

However, refining and purifying amethyst was extremely troublesome. If one did not know how to refine it, then when absorbing the soul energy within the amethyst, eighty percent would dissipate. Only twenty percent would be absorbed... and the process was exceptionally slow, consuming an enormous amount of time.

"No trade, no killing. I should see whether I can refine amethyst! With Soul Power as strong as mine, refining amethyst should be simple!" Lynn looked at the attendant behind the counter and instructed, "Give me one piece of amethyst!"
