After sending away Bi Xiao, who was so grateful she wanted to pledge herself to him, Lin Feng's mind immediately sank into the System.

Qiong Xiao's [Heavenly Dipper Formation], Bi Xiao's [Great Cutting Law].

One focused on construction and sealing, the other on destruction and cutting.

These two completely different, even mutually restraining, powers of law now coiled within his Primordial Spirit's sea of consciousness like two docile little dragons.

For anyone else, obtaining even one would be an immense fortune, enough to serve as the foundation for proving the Dao.

But looking at these two forces, Lin Feng conceived a thought that, to outsiders, would seem utterly insane.

Could he... fuse them together?

Using the stability of the formation to control the sharpness of the cutting.

Using the sharpness of the cutting to break through the limits of the formation.

Once this idea surfaced, it was like a prairie fire, impossible to contain.

"System, how many Points will it cost to deduce the fusion of the [Great Cutting Law] and the [Heavenly Dipper Formation]?"

Lin Feng silently chanted in his mind.

"Ding! Detected that the two Laws possess extremely high fusion potential, but their Law levels are extremely high, and the deduction process will consume vast resources. The first deduction requires 10,000 Points. Confirm?"

Ten thousand Points!

Lin Feng's mouth twitched.

The 5,000 Points he had just extorted from Bi Xiao hadn't even warmed up before he was about to lose another 5,000.

This System was even more ruthless than a profiteer.

"Confirm."

Although he was complaining in his heart, Lin Feng didn't hesitate for a moment.

Points could be earned again, but an opportunity like this, which could bring about a qualitative leap in strength, would be truly lost if missed.

Buzz--!

As Lin Feng's confirmation settled, his entire consciousness seemed to be instantly pulled away, plunging into an endless void of chaos.

Within the System Space, 10,000 Points burned fiercely, transforming into the most fundamental energy to support a terrifying super-deduction!

Before Lin Feng, two balls of light appeared.

One was composed of countless black threads, infinitely finer than a strand of hair. With every tremor, every intersection, they exuded a terrifying sharpness that could sever all things and cut through everything.

This was the fundamental manifestation of the [Great Cutting Law]!

The other was made up of countless golden runes, each the size of a grain of rice. These runes interconnected, forming incredibly precise formation diagrams that exuded an aura of stability, weight, and the power to seal everything.

This was the fundamental manifestation of the [Heavenly Dipper Formation]!

The deduction began!

Lin Feng moved his mind, attempting to imprint a golden rune onto a black thread.

He wanted to use the power of the formation to "wrap" the cutting Law.

However, the moment they touched.

Screech!

The golden rune, capable of constructing a sturdy formation, was like paper. It was instantly sliced in half by the black thread, its spiritual light dimming, rendering it completely useless.

First attempt, failed!

Lin Feng's brow furrowed, and he changed his approach.

Wrapping didn't work, so he would build a cage to imprison it!

He mobilized thousands upon thousands of golden runes, using the [Heavenly Dipper Formation] as a base, and instantly constructed a miniature trapping formation in the void, enveloping the ball of black threads.

Buzz!

The trapping formation took shape, and it seemed on the verge of completely locking down the cutting Law.

But at this very moment, the ball of black threads suddenly erupted!

Ch ch ch ch ch!

Billions of black lights burst forth simultaneously, like a hedgehog made of countless blades, frantically cutting from the inside out!

In just an instant!

The sturdy cage, constructed from the [Heavenly Dipper Formation] and capable of trapping a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, was sliced into the finest powder from the inside out by this violent cutting force!

Second attempt, failed again!

Lin Feng's expression grew solemn.

Suppression was not as good as channeling.

Forcing suppression would only invite a stronger backlash.

These two Laws were like water and fire, inherently opposed.

Trying to fuse them using conventional thinking was completely impossible.

What should I do?

Lin Feng's consciousness raced within the System Space, billions of thoughts arising and vanishing in an instant.

Failure after failure rapidly consumed the energy converted from System Points.

Nine thousand points...

Eight thousand points...

Five thousand points...

When more than half the points had been consumed and the deduction still showed no progress, a flash of inspiration struck Lin Feng's mind!

Bone and Edge!

His thinking had been flawed from the start!

Why try to suppress and restrain the cutting power with a formation?

A formation is the skeleton!

Cutting is the edge!

The purpose of the skeleton isn't to lock the edge, but to support it, allowing it to unleash its strongest power in the most stable and effective way!

Just like a knife needs a handle to be held and a spine for support!

With this realization, Lin Feng felt his vision suddenly open up!

He no longer attempted to construct cages or wrap anything.

Instead, with a single thought, he summoned golden formation runes and, in an incredibly profound manner, actively and precisely imprinted them onto the "nodes" of those black threads!

Not resistance, but "attachment"!

Not restraint, but "guidance"!

Hum!

When the first golden rune successfully attached to a black thread, the previously wild and unruly cutting edge, which had been scattering everywhere, miraculously stabilized!

Instead of chaotically scattering its power in all directions, all its sharpness was concentrated at the very tip of the thread!

Effective!

Lin Feng's spirits soared. He brought out both hands, becoming like the most meticulous craftsman.

Golden runes, like living butterflies, danced gracefully, attaching with unparalleled precision to the key nodes of each black thread.

Gradually, the chaotic mass of black threads began to undergo a qualitative change!

Under the guidance and connection of the golden runes, they began to arrange and combine in an orderly fashion.

Finally, under the integration of the Heavenly Dipper Formation, billions of cutting threads condensed into a phantom blade, as thin as a cicada's wing and almost transparent!

This blade was formless and intangible, yet it emanated an supreme sharpness capable of easily cleaving space itself!

The formation runes that formed the blade's body were like the veins on a blade, firmly binding and guiding its wild power, forming a perfect whole!

It was done!

"Ding! Law fusion successful! Congratulations to the Host for creating the divine ability - Blade of Space!"

Outside, on the Three Immortal Islands.

Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao watched the figure sitting cross-legged with adoring eyes, whispering to each other.

"Second Sister, do you think Master is comprehending some supreme Dao again?"

"I don't know, but it's definitely some heaven-defying technique we can't imagine. Let's guard him quietly and not disturb him."

Bi Xiao held the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl in her hand, feeling its vast power. Her reverence and adoration for Lin Feng reached an unprecedented peak.

Just then.

Lin Feng opened his eyes.

Swish!

The instant he opened his eyes, a sharp divine light, as solid as a substance, flashed and vanished from the depths of his pupils!

Just that single glance made the Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao sisters feel a sharp pain in their foreheads, as if their Primordial Spirits were about to be split open by that gaze!

Their faces turned pale with horror. They quickly lowered their heads, not even daring to meet Lin Feng's eyes.

What terrifying sharpness was this!

Lin Feng slowly stood up, ignoring the two young maidservants behind him.

He raised his right hand, brought his index and middle fingers together, forming a sword-finger.

Then, he lightly slashed at the empty space in front of him.

The movement was utterly casual, done with such ease, as if he were simply brushing away a speck of dust.

There was no earth-shattering momentum, no world-destroying magical power fluctuations, not even the slightest ripple of Spiritual Energy.

However, a bizarre scene unfolded.

Chii.

An almost imperceptible soft sound.

The void in front of Lin Feng was sliced open like tofu by the sharpest surgical knife. A pitch-black, perfectly straight rift, about a person's height, appeared silently.

The edges of the rift were as smooth as the finest mirror, without the slightest wrinkle or distortion.

Through the rift, one could see spatial turbulence churning with unimaginable ferocity, enough to instantly tear apart a Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

But these terrifying currents, upon reaching the edge of the rift, were firmly blocked by a network of runes shimmering with a faint golden light, unable to spill out even a bit!

A spatial rift capable of destroying everything was forcefully stabilized, transforming into an absolutely stable "gateway" to an unknown place!

Silence.

A deathly silence.

Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao's beautiful eyes widened, their mouths covered tightly to prevent themselves from screaming out loud!

What had they just witnessed?

Ripping through space?

No, that wasn't unusual. Cultivators at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm could barely break space with a full-power strike.

But that was "breaking"! It was crude, uncontrolled, and would create a massive spatial storm!

What was their Master doing now?

This was "cutting"!

It was precise, controllable, a perfect art!

Especially the golden runes that stabilized the spatial turbulence at the rift's edge – the two sisters were all too familiar with them!

That was... the power of the Heavenly Dipper Formation!

And from the supreme sharpness that cut through space, Bi Xiao could even feel a trace of a similar origin!

That was... the Great Cutting Law!

Boom!

An absurd thought that made their Primordial Spirits tremble exploded in both sisters' minds simultaneously!

Their Master... had actually fused two completely different, even mutually restraining, supreme Laws... and fused them?!

And then, fused them into a brand-new supreme Spiritual Power whose might surpassed their limits of comprehension?!

"This... how is this possible..."

Bi Xiao murmured, staring at the stable spatial rift, completely stunned.

She knew better than anyone the ferocity and destructiveness of the Great Cutting Law, and she also knew better than anyone how difficult it was to control!

Meanwhile, Qiong Xiao stared intently at the runes stabilizing the spatial rift. From them, she saw another supreme realm of the Dao of Formations, one she hadn't even dared to imagine!

Using formations to construct space, to define Laws!

What heaven-defying comprehension was this? What terrifying means?

Even a Sage preaching the Dao only expounded on a single supreme principle.

To melt two different Daos into one, creating a new "Dao"...

Was this even something a living being could accomplish?

At this moment, the sisters looked at Lin Feng's ordinary, even somewhat slender, back. The last vestiges of reason in their eyes were completely consumed by a flame called "fanaticism."

They felt as if they had glimpsed some supreme truth that could not be described in words.

Surrendering to such an existence was the most correct and fortunate decision they had ever made in their lives!
