"Had you really never studied any secret techniques related to the Law of Time before?"
"I really haven't."
Teacher Thunder Eye looked at Feng Hui, recalling his grasp of the Law of Time just now. To be honest, aside from the fact that he wasn't very good at putting it into practice because he hadn't trained in any related secret techniques, there was nothing to criticize.
His understanding truly pointed straight to the essence of the Law of Time, following the great path leading to the mysteries of time.
As for not being very good at putting it into practice, that wasn't a problem at all.
With such an excellent grasp of the Law of Time, he could pick any secret technique related to it and quickly get the hang of it, mastering it with ease in no time.
Seeing both teachers fall silent, Feng Hui couldn't help asking:
"Teacher, is something wrong?"
Teacher Wala and Teacher Thunder Eye both paused.
As higher laws, the Laws of Space and Time were both incredibly difficult to comprehend. The two of them were struggling along these paths themselves, so they had firsthand experience and knew just how arduous the journey was.
In theory, based on their own experiences, the two teachers should have advised Feng Hui not to cultivate space and time together. He should focus all his energy on a single higher law; perhaps then he could succeed.
After all, a person's energy was limited, and trying to learn too much could leave one mastering nothing.
But... Feng Hui's astonishing talent made it impossible for them to say such a thing.
Perhaps... he really could make it down this path?
Both teachers knew that before one became an Immortal God, comprehending the laws was relatively easy.
The World Lord stage in particular was the easiest stage for comprehending laws.
That was because once someone entered the World Lord Level, their consciousness could enter the Universe Origin directly, and the speed at which they comprehended laws would skyrocket.
During this period, one could comprehend multiple laws at the same time, and each of them felt relatively close, making them easier to understand.
But once someone broke through and became an Immortal God, their soul would completely merge with their divine body.
At that point, the divine body was composed of Immortal Divine Power, making it equivalent to a part of the cosmic law origin ocean of the lower law they had relied on to break through.
At this point, comprehending the corresponding higher law was still manageable. But if they tried to comprehend other laws, they would face intense rejection, and the difficulty would soar by tens of thousands, even millions of times.
For instance, Teacher Wala had already fully comprehended the Wood Primordial Law and had also grasped part of the Space Origin Law.
If he continued studying the Law of Space, his progress would still be decent.
But if he tried to comprehend another lower law, such as the Law of Fire, his progress would be quite slow because of the laws' rejection.
If he also wanted to comprehend the Law of Time, cultivation would become extremely difficult, and the pace of progress would be unbearably slow.
That was why Peerless Geniuses at the World Lord Level often remained at the World Lord stage for a long time to comprehend the laws.
After all, comprehending laws became truly difficult once one broke through to become an Immortal God.
Since Feng Hui had such astonishing talent for the Laws of Time and Space, there was no harm in letting him try to follow the path of cultivating both.
He was still young, after all, and had room to experiment. If he couldn't continue, he could always change paths in time.
Besides... Teacher Wala suddenly thought of something, and his heart stirred.
"Since you want to cultivate space and time together, then give it a try."
"I won't stop you, but this path will take more time and effort. I can guide you in the Law of Space, but for the Law of Time, you'll have to ask Teacher Thunder Eye."
As he spoke, Teacher Wala turned to Teacher Thunder Eye.
"Come ask me if there's anything you don't understand." Teacher Thunder Eye nodded at Feng Hui.
"Perhaps, with your talent, after the Eastern Domain Tournament, you'll have a chance to cultivate that inheritance."
Teacher Wala looked at Feng Hui and sighed softly.
"You mean that one?" Teacher Thunder Eye's heart stirred slightly.
"Isn't it a bit too difficult?"
"With his aptitude for the Laws of Space and Time, perhaps he really does have a chance."
"What inheritance?"
Feng Hui was bewildered by the two teachers' cryptic conversation.
"You'll find out when the time comes."
Teacher Wala looked at Feng Hui with a hint of anticipation.
"If you pass the Eastern Domain Tournament, you'll be able to come into contact with the true foundation of my Dongdi Clan—the Dongdi Tower! That inheritance is inside the Dongdi Tower."
"The Dongdi Tower?"
Feng Hui was full of questions.
After all, this was the Eastern Emperor Holy Land Universe, named after Dongdi Ancestor, who had Transcended Reincarnation.
Here, not just anything could be given the name "Dongdi."
For the Dongdi Tower to bear that name, it was certainly no ordinary place.
"Haha, of course you've never heard of it. Even I only learned of this secret when I was selected for the Eastern Domain Tournament and received special training back then."
"The Eastern Emperor Holy Land Universe is divided into five great domains: the Eastern Domain, Western Domain, Northern Domain, Southern Domain, and Central Domain. Above them lies the Endless Divine Realm."
"The Endless Divine Realm is the true heart of my Dongdi Clan. All the great beings who have surpassed the Universe Venerable gather there. Only true powerhouses are qualified to enter, so a little fellow like you shouldn't think about it for now."
"The five great domains are where the geniuses gather."
"Each of the five great domains has one of my Dongdi Clan's Supreme Treasures—the Dongdi Tower!"
"When I was receiving special training, I heard that there's actually only one Dongdi Tower, but it manifests in five forms, appearing in all five great domains at once. Even I don't fully understand its mysteries."
"But there's one thing you need to know: the Dongdi Tower is absolutely a supreme inheritance treasure of my Dongdi Clan. Being able to enter it and receive its inheritance is an immense opportunity and blessing."
"It would be an exaggeration to say that all the super powerhouses born in my Dongdi Clan owe their achievements to the Dongdi Tower. But it's an indisputable fact that the tower helped them immensely on their paths to becoming super powerhouses."
Feng Hui's heart burned with excitement.
Having just comprehended the Cosmic Chaos Stele in Chaos City of the Human Race, he knew all too well how much treasures that pointed straight to the ultimate path could help young geniuses.
The difference between cultivating with guidance and without was like the difference between taking a smooth highway and walking a rugged mountain trail.
That wasn't to say the path to power was impossible without guidance. One could still reach the end by taking the rugged trail, but fewer people would make it, and it would take longer.
If there was a broad, sunlit road, why take a narrow footbridge?
He had known that even the Human Race in the Prime Universe had treasures like the Chaos Tablet to guide geniuses in their cultivation and help them comprehend the laws. The Eastern Emperor Holy Land Universe, which had existed for who knew how long and had countless powerhouses, surely had even better ways to nurture and pass down its legacy.
He just didn't know what was so wondrous about this Dongdi Tower that Teacher Wala praised so highly.
"I'd planned to focus on teaching you the Law of Wood and the Law of Space before the Eastern Domain Tournament, but I didn't expect you to make such astonishing progress in the Law of Time as well."
"Now it seems I'll need to change the cultivation plan I had for you."
"How about this: go back first, and Teacher Thunder Eye and I will discuss it."
