Fate!

With the texture of flowing water, Zhang Qing awakened.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw many people outside.

He gave a slight nod, then closed his eyes again.

The Dragon Venerable had indeed come back to life.

His true body began to reassemble beneath the support of the laws.

The authority had been purged.

Zhang Qing needed to carry out the final cleansing of the authority.

But suddenly—

When only the tiniest trace of authority remained—

It proved extraordinarily stubborn.

Even the Water Law could not sweep it away completely.

"This isn't an imprint from the old era!"

Zhang Qing thought to himself.

Authority!

These two words now carried the air of primordial savagery.

Because it was unreasonable.

But then again—

When something could be unreasonable, it meant one's strength had reached an indisputable peak.

The pinnacle of power—

Was to be unreasonable!

"Could it be that even in the new era, there is still a hidden path?" Zhang Qing was stunned.

If—

Within the law system of the new era, one could still touch upon or construct a system of authority—

Then...

It would truly transcend everything!

The authority of the past had been exchanged with Destiny.

But the authority of the new era would undoubtedly be woven from laws.

The two simply could not be compared!

Zhang Qing seemed to have found a road to the heavens.

Laws were foundational attributes.

On that foundation, an even greater edifice should be possible.

But for now, he had no clue where to begin.

He had not even mastered a single Water Law to one hundred percent, yet he was already thinking of weaving and forming absolute authority.

It was too far away!

But no matter what, the road ahead had opened up!

It was even broader than before!
