The news of the birth of a peerless genius spread throughout countless Alien Race in the universe within a single day. At the same time, however, our subjects paid no attention to these trivial matters.

Chaos City, countless Cultivation Residence, on the rooftop of one of these Cultivation Residence.

Lu Yan'an, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, slowly opened them, a smile on his face, "After some reflection, I've gained quite a bit."

Through his battle with the Gatekeeper of the 18th level of the Tongtian Bridge, Lu Yan'an instantly recognized the gap between them. The methods of Feng Wang were not even in the same league as the laws of Feng Hou a marquis! No wonder the application of higher-level laws could widen the gap between immortals so much. On the same foundation, higher-level laws and lower-level laws are not the same concept at all!

However, although he was directly pinned to the ground and taught a lesson by the Gatekeeper of the Tongtian Bridge, Lu Yan'an did not come away empty-handed. At least before this, he had never used his own Law of Time in the way the Gatekeeper did.

"Now that all the goals have been achieved, let's prepare for secluded cultivation!" Looking at the visible Universe Operating Laws in the sky, Lu Yan'an felt a deep sense of emotion.

While in the Original Secret Realm, he was constantly on the move carrying out missions, and it had been a long time since he had experienced this feeling of relaxation.

"Is this the power of time?" Feeling the fluctuations of time in the universe, Lu Yan'an felt as if he had transformed into a fish in the ocean of time, swimming freely in the surging sea.

In the vast river of time, his consciousness flowed and wandered with the footsteps of time, as if he were a part of time itself.

"Rumble..." The surrounding space trembled slightly.

A drop of eerie, noble purple water appeared out of thin air above Lu Yan'an's head, and then fell directly down.

Tick-tock!

The purple droplet landed directly on Lu Yan'an 'Lu Yan'an head, treating his physical body as nothingness and penetrating it directly. Then, this droplet landed on the "Original Core," seemingly piercing through nothingness and entering the Original Core. Finally, this droplet landed on the Origin Bead.

The Origin Bead is a combination of Soul Crystal and Origin Force Crystal at the Domain Lord level.

Lu Yan'an's core of power! It is also the core of his soul!

"Hiss..." The purple water droplet was easily absorbed by the Origin Bead, which then gained a faint purple hue.

Now--

Lu Yan'an has officially gained recognition from the Law of Time.

A purple Bright Moon Mark reappeared on his brow from the Golden Sword Mark, and at the same time, this superimposed mark on his brow once again emitted a heart-stirring fluctuation of law, a sign that he had been recognized by the Law of Time!

The Origin Law acknowledges that there are also distinctions of superiority and inferiority.

Like the "Law of Light," or the formation of Golden Sword Mark between the eyebrows, or a Golden Glow Mark... different marks represent different aspects being recognized. At this moment, Lu Yan'an has a purple moon mark between his eyebrows, faintly visible, which is the mark that only appears when one has been recognized by the three highest levels of the Law of Time: "Time Stasis"!

"Is this the true power of time? It is indeed incredibly vast!" Lu Yan'an smiled slightly. "I never imagined that the breakthrough opportunity for this Law of Time would be on the 18th level of the Tongtian Bridge!"

After Gatekeeper of the 18th level of the Tongtian Bridge, Lu Yan'an deeply felt the power of Time Stasis. Although he broke free from the constraints of Time Stasis during the battle, that was only because the Gatekeeper wasn't taking it seriously! The Time Stasis technique he unleashed with all his might, based on his understanding of King-level Immortal, truly deserves the title of a heaven-defying technique.

With an instantaneous burst of power, his Origin Force and Spiritual Force merged, instantly increasing his base strength by over 650 times. This was still a breakthrough within the limitations of his Law Domain. Even at this level, he still barely managed to break Gatekeeper's Time Stasis restraints. This demonstrates the extraordinary nature of this secret technique.

Although Lu Yan'an had used a stripped-down version of "Time Stasis" in the past, that was only when his strength was not much different from his opponent's! Now that he has been recognized by the Law of Time, "Time Stasis" has also received an epic enhancement, which is enough to rival the power of King-level Immortal.

Moreover, after acknowledging the Law of Time, he was essentially given a buff when comprehending it, which made his already terrifying speed of comprehending the Time Law even faster! Furthermore, this level of comprehension efficiency will become even more impressive after Lu Yan'an becomes World Lord.

At this moment, Lu Yan'an, who had cultivated both the Origin Law of Light and Law of Time to the point of gaining the recognition of the Origin Law, suddenly experienced a frenzied surge of the two laws within his body, as if they had gone out of control.

"What is this?" Lu Yan'an carefully sensed the two completely different forces of law within his body. After being harmonized by his Heart Power, the two forces of law, which were originally distinct, began to show signs of fusion for the first time!

The so-called Fusion Laws is essentially the interaction and fusion between the Origin of Laws. The fusion of the Origin of Laws does not affect the power of laws in any way, because the power of laws in the universe is the most subtle force! They can no longer be reduced in size, so their properties are completely fixed. Their indivisible nature determines their stability.

However, at this very moment, through the harmonization of Heart Power, this fixed and indivisible essence underwent its first change! The power of the laws of time appeared in the Initial Universe for the first time!

"Boom!"

The instant the first Time Power appeared, the Will of the Original Universe immediately took notice of this place! At that very moment, the City Lord of Chaos, seated cross-legged within the Chaos Ruins, looked up with a solemn expression. "The Will of the Original Universe?"

The next moment, the City Lord of Chaos's Spiritual Force swept across the entire Chaos City, finally locking onto Lu Yan'an was sitting cross-legged on the rooftop!

"Could it be you?" the City Lord of Chaos murmured.

Immediately, with a wave of his hand, Lu Yan'an's figure vanished from the rooftop of his Chaos City residence and was transferred to his God Kingdom.

The instant Lu Yan'an disappeared, the Will of the Original Universe that had been watching him vanished in an instant!

"It's nothing!"

The next moment, the voice of the City Lord of Chaos resounded throughout the entire Chaos City.

The moment the first Time Power was created, Lu Yan'an was plunged into a state of enlightenment.

To ensure his enlightenment wouldn't be disturbed, and also to study the newly generated power of law within his body, Lu Yan'an began to cultivate in seclusion within the City Lord of Chaos's God Kingdom.

It wasn't until a hundred years later, when the gestation of his Kong Yu Clone complete, that his sudden enlightenment regarding the Time Power finally came to an end!

At this moment, the power of laws surging within him had been completely replaced by the new Time Power.

"You're awake?" The voice of the City Lord of Chaos suddenly rang in his ears.

"Senior Uncle? Where is this?" Lu Yan'an was also very confused. Just a moment ago, he was on the rooftop of his residence, rejoicing at receiving the recognition of the Law of Time, and now he found himself in this unfamiliar place.

"Don't be nervous, this is my God Kingdom. First, look at your body, see if there's any difference from before!"

"My body?" Lu Yan'an began to probe his own body with considerable curiosity, and a moment later—

"This... this is?" He observed the newly generated power of laws within his body with considerable shock. This new power was ten times stronger than before!

"You were in a state of enlightenment before, perhaps because of this newfound power within you, which caused the Will of the Original Universe to descend upon Chaos City!" The City Lord of Chaos said to Lu Yan'an, "Can you tell me what this is?"

"What? The Will of the Original Universe?" Lu Yan'an was startled, but remained outwardly calm. "What is the Will of the Original Universe?"

Seeing Lu Yan'an's confused expression, the City Lord of Chaos didn't think much of it and explained to him, "The Primal Universe is the largest celestial body in the entire Universe Ocean. Such a massive celestial body absorbs an incredibly terrifying amount of Chaos energy every moment. But this celestial body also possesses its own consciousness, and certain forces even have methods to communicate with the Will of the Original Universe!"

The City Lord of Chaos didn't elaborate much, only giving a brief introduction.

"And this power within you has directly attracted the attention of the Will of the Original Universe!"

After saying that, the City Lord of Chaos stared intently at Lu Yan'an, hoping to find out the reason for the appearance of this power.

"I don't know either. This power suddenly appeared after the Law of Time was acknowledged by the law itself!" Lu Yan'an shook his head. He was also very surprised by the appearance of this new power. But feeling the decrease in the Heart Power flowing in his body, he had a rough guess. However, since it was about the inheritance of Heart Power, he couldn't just say anything even if he had a guess.

Seeing Lu Yan'an's genuine expression, the City Lord of Chaos pondered for a moment and then refrained from asking further questions. He knew very well that his junior disciple was hiding something. However, the rules of the Human Race dictated that one should not inquire about personal circumstances. Therefore, he simply gave Lu Yan'an a deep look before saying, "Go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the primal power of the spatial laws around Lu Yan'an surged, and the next moment, he was teleported back to the rooftop of his residence!
