The Human Race's inheritance used Chaos Steles as its medium, while the Star Behemoths' inheritance used Beast God Statues.
The Zerg's inheritance, on the other hand, used tablets.
"How was it?"
Isabella stood outside the stone chamber, smiling as she welcomed Cai Yi, who had just come out.
"All the laws are perfectly engraved as one. The more an inheritor comprehends, the more they can see. It perfectly explains the path of the Law of Wind..."
Cai Yi said, her eyes shining.
She had gained so much from this comprehension!
"Such a shame. Why didn't you choose the Time Tablet back then?"
At that, Isabella sighed, and Evangeline felt a heaviness in her heart as well.
Compared with the two higher laws of time and space, the lower law of wind was clearly inferior by a wide margin.
Like the Human Race, the Zerg could only choose one tablet to study, and without special circumstances, they couldn't change their choice.
Cai Yi had chosen the tablet that explained the Law of Wind Origin.
"I just feel the Law of Wind suits me better."
Cai Yi answered honestly.
She had chosen the Law of Wind not because she didn't want to choose the Law of Time, but because, after comparing the two, she felt a much deeper connection to the Law of Wind.
Given the limits of her talent, there was no need to force it. What suited her best was what mattered most.
Cai Yi couldn't be sure what the future held, so all she could do was make the most of the present. That was why she had chosen the Law of Wind.
"But the Law of Time offers greater potential..."
Evangeline sighed.
By the common understanding of the Primal Universe, the Laws of Time and Space were the paths to the heavens.
The lower laws of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, and light were little more than extras. Hardly any King-level Immortals had made their names through just one of those eight laws.
The same was even more true of Venerables. The mainstream view was that one had to fully comprehend the Law of Time or the Law of Space to break through. Otherwise, one had to break through using a Fusion Law.
Cai Yi didn't know whether anyone had ever become a Venerable through a lower law alone on the Origin Continent, but there definitely hadn't been anyone in the Primal Universe so far.
"I just feel the Law of Wind suits me better."
"But even if you fully comprehend the Law of Wind, you still won't be able to break through to Immortality."
Evangeline shook her head.
When a Zerg Mother Empress broke through to Immortality, she became a Peak King right away. That made breaking through extremely difficult for them!
A secret technique based solely on a lower law wasn't enough to break through!
"Besides, nearly all the powerful Peak King Immortals are known for secret techniques based on the Laws of Time or Space. A few are known for techniques based on Fusion Laws. I've never heard of anyone famous for a secret technique based on a lower law..."
The Wind Tablet might have been created by a Universe Master, but it merely described the 'Dao' that they were currently pursuing. It pointed to a realm beyond that of a Universe Master, but that didn't mean they should take it too seriously...
Although a Zerg Mother Empress could match the combat strength of a Peak King as soon as she became Immortal by pouring resources into swarming enemies with her brood, she still had to pass the test of the higher laws!
"Don't worry. Once you've mastered the Law of Wind, you'll encounter the Law of Time sooner or later."
Cai Yi smiled. She was better at the Law of Wind, so she would study the Law of Wind.
When she had more clones in the future, one of them would surely be suited to the Law of Time. She could let them study it then. With her understanding of the lower law to support them, breaking through would be easier, too.
"Mom, I had quite a few insights after studying the Wind Tablet. I'm going into seclusion."
Cai Yi smiled and told Isabella and Evangeline before quickly taking off.
The Law of Space had 108 essences, and the Law of Time had 72.
As a lower law under the Law of Time, the Law of Wind had 324 essences.
That seemed like a lot to comprehend, but in practice, it made the process easier.
In just a few months, Cai Yi had already comprehended 24 essences!
Now that she had studied the Wind Tablet again, the 25th essence had fallen into place!
This might have had something to do with Hen Ren's talent bonus, but there was no denying that the difficulty was far lower than that of the Laws of Space and Time.
"Star Level, ninth rank; 25 essences of the Law of Wind; and I've crossed the threshold of the Law of Time. I'm far stronger than most top Star Level geniuses."
Cai Yi was satisfied.
At the very least, those 25 essences of the Law of Wind were nearly equivalent to one essence of the Law of Time.
Most top Star Level geniuses couldn't necessarily comprehend even a single law essence. Luo Feng, for example...
She then took out several secret manuals explaining the Wind Tablet and continued studying.
Cultivation knew no time, though that only applied to Cai Yi, who had abundant resources and inheritances.
For Xu Ai and Hen Ren, even the simple task of accumulating energy took up a great deal of time.
"So I really do need to join the Virtual Universe Company as soon as possible..."
Xu Ai sighed.
She had finished today's training: nine levels of the Fire Domain completed, threshold of the Law of Fire Origin reached, threshold of the Law of Space Origin reached...
And she was only Planetary Level, third rank...
I'm falling behind too much!!!
Even with Hen Ren's latest version of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, she had only advanced two levels.
Xu Ai opened the Gravity Chamber. Liu Ting, Janet, and Jiang Fang had been waiting outside for ages...
Those three were just there to freeload on the Gravity Chamber!
"Where's my sister?"
Xu Ai looked at the three of them. Xu Xin wasn't there.
"She went to the bathroom. She should be back soon."
Janet said, then tried to enter the Gravity Chamber.
Xu Ai planted her palm against the doorway.
"Didn't we agree you could only use the Gravity Chamber to train if my sister was with you?"
"Fine. I'll go get her."
Liu Ting nodded and hurried toward the bathroom.
A short while later, Liu Ting hurried back.
"Something's wrong! Sister Xin is missing!"
"What?!"
Janet and Jiang Fang were shocked and ran out to look for her.
According to Xu Ai's agreement with them, they could only train in the Gravity Chamber if Xu Xin was with them!
So if Xu Xin wasn't there, they couldn't go in.
Watching the three of them rush off anxiously, Xu Ai nodded in satisfaction.
Yes, this is exactly what I wanted.
That way, Liu Ting, Jiang Fang, and Janet could train, and Xu Xin would have them keeping an eye on her, too!
Two birds with one stone!
Xu Ai lounged comfortably on the sofa.
It had been two months since Hong swept through Mist Island.
That's right. Luo Feng had received Babata's inheritance more than a month ago.
Several major things had happened during that month.
The first was that Hong had given up the title of the world's strongest and his position as First Speaker.
Hen Ren had taken the seat.
No one objected. Hen Ren was simply too strong. She had single-handedly defeated every monster on Earth, strong or weak!
Thanks to Hen Ren, humanity had reclaimed its position as Earth's ruler, and naturally held her in the highest regard.
Although Hong had been so absorbed in cultivating with the Wood Bud Crystals that he'd forgotten all about it, they still went to discreetly remind him, and he finally stepped down.
The second major event was that several people had broken through to Planetary Level.
It was worth noting that all of them were High-level War Gods from the Extreme Martial Arts Hall.
Yes, Luo Feng was one of them.
About a month ago, he had become a Planetary Level Spirit Reader.
He had just received Hu Yanbo's inheritance at the time, so the timing matched up with how long the Nine-Nine God Forging breakthrough method took.
The others had broken through in the past few days.
Judging by the timing, they'd had enough time to absorb the Wood Bud Crystals...
In short, breaking through to Planetary Level was a huge occasion on Earth, worthy of a celebration by the entire population.
And so the Extreme Martial Arts Hall held a ceremony to celebrate the arrival of these new councilors!
Wait...
"Ha! I knew it! So that's where my sister went!"
Xu Ai sprang up, put on her coat, and headed over.
The destination was the Extreme Martial Arts Hall's Global Headquarters!
The celebration for the new councilors was being held there!
