The Tragedy

In the Virtual Universe, atop the highest palace complex on Thunder Island, even the Lord of Darkness, who rarely pauses his treasure hunt, has come online in this Virtual Universe.

"It has been over 100 years since he reported to us that he was preparing to break through. During these 100 years, he has been comprehending the Origin Law of Light. Judging from his sixth level of the Beast God Inheritance, breaking through to immortality should be a very easy thing for him. So why has he dragged it out for so long without breaking through to immortality?" The Lord of Darkness stood on the top floor of the majestic palace, gazing into the distance, his gaze covering everything below Thunder Island.

"Could he be comprehending the Origin Law of Light? Although even the final step of a law is difficult to break through, his Law Comprehension is extremely high. He should be able to understand it after spending hundreds of years." The Lord of Darkness grew increasingly suspicious. His disciple's Clone had already been created, and his Law Comprehension had even reached the level of Universe Overlord. What was he still delaying for?

Lu Yan'an, sitting cross-legged in the pavilion, has been studying the Origin Law of Light for over a hundred years.

"Light!"

"This is light!"

Lu Yan'an opened his eyes and smiled, a sense of fulfillment filling his heart—a satisfaction born from comprehending a "Tao" in the universe.

"Boom!"

An invisible connection instantly linked Lu Yan'an the ocean of Origin Law of Light of the Origin Place of the Universe, and the endless aura from the ocean of Origin Law of Light was directly transmitted to him.

Everything is irreversible.

The Original Core within Lu Yan'an's body... Original Core contained an Origin Bead. However, after the Origin Bead absorbed the aura transmitted from the ocean of Origin Law of Light, it instantly changed and directly transformed into a human form—the appearance of Lu Yan'an!

"The laws are formed, the origin takes shape, the Original Core is broken, divine power is poured in, and the soul and body unite to enter immortality!" Lu Yan'an silently thought to himself.

This is the fundamental process of entering immortality; it is completely unidirectional and irreversible.

Within the Original Core, there is a self-contained space.

After the Origin Bead transformed into Lu Yan'an waved his hand, and instantly the energy transformed into tens of thousands of crystal spheres that floated in the air. Each crystal sphere was covered with complex Law Secret Pattern. Whether they were martial artists or Spirit Reader, they all relied on the Origin Bead to break through to the Immortal Realm.

As for the weapons or Spiritual Force weapons used after the Origin Bead is formed, they are all simply energy manifestations.

"Roar..."

Tens of thousands of crystal spheres, like bone beads, were intertwined with countless threads of law, forming the image of a spiritual deity. This deity's appearance bore about 80% resemblance to Lu Yan'an. Even his clothing was his favorite plain white robe!

"Origin Technique Three - Heavenly Radiance!"

"Mental Power Amplitude!"

"All consciousness and will!"

Break free from constraints! Achieve immortality!

"Break! Break! Break!"

All of Lu Yan'an's Clone fell into slumber, all their consciousness and will now exerting their full strength. Moreover, under the influence of the Origin Law of Light the universe, Lu Yan'an was able to unleash his full potential. Within the Original Core, the god standing with a sword in hand, exuding an unwavering determination and a tragic aura, charged directly towards the Original Core.

At this moment, the god's aura surged forth like a burning flame. With a single slash, like a meteor, it crashed into the inner wall of the Original Core with the most frenzied force.

"Boom!

!"

The third move of the self-created secret technique "Origin" - Heavenly Radiance!

This is the third secret technique created by Lu Yan'an with painstaking effort. Compared to the naturally formed secret technique "Primitive," although its power is not as terrifying, its compatibility with the path is far superior. "Primitive" is more like an Innate Secret Technique created by the Primal Universe through Lu Yan'an's hands, in which the human's role is minimal and luck plays the majority of the role!

"Boom!

"!" The inner wall of the Original Core was smashed with a tremendous roar, and cracks appeared inside the Original Core.

Call!

The hazy, Chaos color of the Original Core's inner wall spread and covered the cracks, instantly erasing all the cracks and restoring the entire Original Core to its original state, leaving Chaos completely unharmed.

After guiding Lu Yan'an to unleash this terrifying attack... the aura of the Origin Place of the Universe began to recede.

"How is this possible?" Lu Yan'an's mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly calmed down.

"Since the power of 'Heavenly Radiance' is somewhat lacking, then let's use 'Primal'! Break it!"

Boom!

At this moment, the deity within the Original Core seemed to transform into a fireball, surrounded by surging energy, carrying the force of heaven and earth as it once again crashed into the inner wall of the Original Core!

"Boom!"

If the previous collision between "Heavenly Radiance" and the inner wall of the Original Core was like a meteorite hitting Earth, then the collision between "Primordial" and the inner wall of the Original Core was like Mars! In terms of power, Heavenly Radiance and Primordial are not even in the same league.

This impact caused cracks to appear on the inner wall of the Original Core, as if it would shatter and achieve immortality at any moment! But then, an uncontrollable force surged out from within the Original Core, and the Original Core, on the verge of shattering, was instantly and automatically repaired without any damage under the blessing of this force! And this force was World Energy Lu Yan'an's Heart World!

"Bang!" After more than ten impacts with full force, the god within the Original Core finally collapsed completely due to excessive consumption. The Crystal Bead shattered with a bang. Lu Yan'an, the humanoid form of the Origin Bead, stood in the desolate dark space with an incredulous expression.

"How is that possible?"

"How could one possibly not become immortal?"

"I, Lu Yan'an, possess a willpower that is among the strongest even within the realm of Universe Venerable! Divine Body Amplitude! Mental Power Amplitude! Self-created Ultimate Techniques! I excel in every aspect! Especially my willpower, which is heaven-defying... In the end, how could I fail to break through the Original Core Shackles due to Heart Power limitations? How is this possible?" Lu Yan'an could not accept all of this.

I truly cannot accept this.

In his heart, reaching immortality should be as easy as drinking water. After all, in terms of willpower, Heart Power, Body Amplitude, Mental Power Amplitude, and innate Overlord- level Ultimate Technique, he was absolutely comparable to High Venerable. In fact, among High Venerable, he had few rivals! But he never expected that this breakthrough would be ruined by the Heart Power that was supposed to be his help.

How could a "World Lord" whose qualifications rival those of High Venerable be unable to attain immortality?

This...

How could such a thing happen?

Even if his circumstances were miraculous, and the power of his Heart Power reversed, breaking through the Original Core's shackles would be a level more difficult. He was already extremely high in every aspect, practically a "Universe Overlord," having reached the pinnacle in many areas. Couldn't that be enough?

"This is a classic case of 'a loss may turn out to be a blessing in disguise'!"

"Fortune and misfortune are intertwined; there is indeed a reason for this." In the desolate space within the Original Core, Lu Yan'an, the humanoid spiritual deity transformed from the Origin Bead, sat cross-legged, shaking his head and speaking softly. He possessed the inheritance of Heart Power, and under the harmonizing effect of Heart Power, he fused with the power of the Time Fusion Law, which had never appeared in the universe before. Furthermore, because the Original Core absorbed the essence of the Heart of Time, he was bestowed with an Innate Secret Technique by the universe.

The Original Core was already extremely powerful, and the opening of the Heart World further amplified Original Core strength! Before he attempted to break through to immortality, everything was progressing in a positive direction, and everything seemed so wonderful...

However, while Lu Yan'an was excited about the increasing strength of his Original Core, he never imagined that he would be unable to break through Original Core shackles! He also never imagined that, with the support of the power of the Heart World, the stability of his Original Core would reach such a terrifying state. It could be said that while the existence of Heart Power gave Lu Yan'an incredibly terrifying ability to fight beyond his level, it had now unknowingly become a shackle restricting his continued progress and growth!

"Stepping into immortality, how do I step into immortality?" Lu Yan'an said softly, then gave a self-deprecating laugh, "Before this, I never doubted that I could easily break through, but I never expected... even after reaching this level, I still can't break through the shackles of the Original Core."

"Truly, every sip has its price! I never imagined that the opening of the World of the Heart would become such a huge obstacle to my achieving immortality. I also never thought that I, Lu Yan'an, the Illusionary Slayer King, a genius World Lord renowned throughout the universe, would be secretly troubled by my inability to break through to immortality! If those alien races knew about my situation, they would probably be overjoyed!"
