Inside Wang Cheng's World Ring on Earth.

Wang Cheng sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, his brow slightly furrowed as if pondering something.

In fact, Wang Cheng was currently recalling the battles he had participated in previously on the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Wang Cheng hadn't stayed on the Outer Realm Battlefield for long, but three Cosmic level ninth order beings, one Domain Lord level six, and one Domain Lord level second order had died by his hand!

He had even fiercely tangled with a Domain Lord level eighth order Domain Lord.

Among these battles, the ones where he killed those three Cosmic level ninth order beings were almost of no help to Wang Cheng, because all three were instantly killed by Wang Cheng.

What Wang Cheng was doing now was recalling the remaining three battles.

Since obtaining the Oracle Marquis's inheritance, Wang Cheng's progress had been undeniable. He had gone from a Stellar level being who had just comprehended the Lightning Origin to a Cosmic level being who now mastered the four Laws of Wind, Lightning, Time, and Space. Moreover, his comprehension of these four Laws was extremely profound!

Of course, with such immense progress, there were bound to be some hidden problems.

Entering the Outer Realm Battlefield this time could be said to be Wang Cheng's first Life and Death Battle since his transmigration. This battle naturally made Wang Cheng realize the various issues that had arisen due to his rapid progress.

"Several battles have shown that I lack a decisive killing move!"

Wang Cheng recalled silently. Heavenly Thunder's Fury was actually quite good, allowing him to contend with a Domain Lord level sixth order without being at a disadvantage, despite having a Body Foundation only slightly stronger than a Cosmic level eighth order.

Although his profound comprehension of the Lightning Law played a part, the power of the secret technique Heavenly Thunder's Fury could not be denied.

However, this was not enough!

The two times he killed Domain Lords, one Domain Lord level six and one Domain Lord level two, he first smashed their heads and then destroyed their Life Cores.

If his attack were strong enough to destroy their entire bodies in one blow, why would he need such trouble?

"Furthermore, I have mastered too many Laws, which actually makes me feel unable to fully utilize them in combat!" Wang Cheng frowned slightly. This was indeed a problem, but it was also something many people would envy.

After all, not everyone could comprehend so many Laws simultaneously in such a short period and comprehend them all to such a profound degree!

Actually, Wang Cheng's situation was still quite good.

Because he had been continuously comprehending the Universe Chaos Tablet, there was very little obstruction when he used the Time and Space Laws together. After all, the Universe Chaos Tablet was a treasure that inherently contained the Space-Time Laws. Wang Cheng, by comprehending the Universe Chaos Tablet, naturally understood how to combine the Time and Space Laws.

However, Wang Cheng's combination of the Wind and Lightning Laws, and the combination of Wind and Lightning with Space-Time, was done very poorly. Or rather, these Laws almost fought independently, with no room for combination at all.

"The best solution would naturally be for me to learn a combat secret technique that contains the four Laws of Time, Space, Wind, and Lightning. This way, I could naturally utilize all four Laws perfectly!" Wang Cheng pondered, but then he shook his head slightly.

In the Original Universe, there were definitely secret techniques containing these four Laws simultaneously, but he couldn't obtain them!

Relying on Opportunity Draw for luck?

That was naturally unreliable!

There were not a few secret methods containing two Laws simultaneously. Secret techniques containing three Laws were probably rare. Those containing four, and specifically the four Laws of Wind, Lightning, Space, and Time, were likely among the rarest. Wang Cheng didn't think he was lucky enough to get such a secret manual through the Opportunity Draw!

"Should I create one myself?" The thought flashed through Wang Cheng's mind, and then his heart began to stir.

It was never too early or too late to create a secret manual. Just like Thor, who was only at the Planet level, created Nine Heavens Thunder Blade?

Of course, Nine Heavens Thunder Blade was at a very low level. It was merely a secret manual containing Body Force Generation and Lightning artistic conception, not even touching the edge of a Domain, let alone Laws!

But this also illustrated one point: no matter how weak one's strength was, it didn't prevent the creation of secret manuals!

Wang Cheng knew that true Strong Individuals would actively create their own combat secret manuals!

With the same Law comprehension and the same level of secret manual, the power of using a self-created secret manual was obviously greater, even significantly so!

Of course, it wasn't that a self-created one was necessarily stronger than learning from others. After all, if you created an Ordinary level secret manual, even if you used it yourself, it was impossible to think it would be stronger than a Top-tier level secret manual.

"Ordinary Secret Manual, Top-tier Secret Manual, Peak Secret Manual, Ultimate Secret Manual. This is my first attempt at creating a secret manual, and I haven't seen what a truly powerful secret manual looks like, nor do I have anyone to guide me. I wouldn't dare to think about Peak level or Ultimate level secret manuals. Creating a Top-tier level secret manual would already be quite good!" Wang Cheng thought to himself.

In fact, Top-tier level secret manuals were already very powerful.

According to what Wang Cheng knew, the secret manuals he was currently using, including Heavenly Thunder's Fury, Wind God Shadow, Eternal Void, and Ten Thousand Lines Flow, were all Ordinary level secret manuals, every single one of them.

Top-tier level secret manuals had already unleashed a considerable portion of the power of the Laws!

It was not strange at all for ordinary Warriors to achieve Cross-level Kill against beings much stronger than themselves if they learned even a One Star Half Point of a Top-tier secret manual!

"However, creating a secret manual is different from comprehending Laws. This cannot be achieved by just cultivating behind closed doors. It seems I'll have to go to the Outer Realm Battlefield more often in the future!" Wang Cheng nodded slightly. He was only at the Cosmic level now, so the cost of going to the Outer Realm Battlefield wasn't high.

It was only one Opportunity Point per trip!

Even if he went once a day, he could still afford it!

Of course, Wang Cheng wouldn't go once a day. After all, he had to set aside time after each battle to digest his gains, so that the effects of each battle could be better realized.

"As long as I can create a Top-tier level combat secret manual, the flaw of my lack of a killing move will also be resolved!" Thinking this, Wang Cheng's determination to create a secret manual became even firmer.

Creating a secret manual could be said to kill two birds with one stone; it was something that had to be done.

After making up his mind to create a secret manual, Wang Cheng then began to study the matter of his clones after breaking through to the Cosmic level.

Wang Cheng continuously created clones, and soon, five thousand Stellar level first order Wang Chengs appeared around him.

"As expected, after I broke through to the Cosmic level, the number of clones I can perfectly control became five thousand!" Wang Cheng felt the state of the five thousand clones and nodded to himself.

If this continued, when he became a World Lord or an Immortal, he might be able to fully control his 10,081 clones.

"Of these five thousand clones, one thousand will absorb Cosmic energy, three thousand will study Laws, and the remaining one thousand will begin to create my combat secret method!" Wang Cheng had made up his mind.
