Power and the Village of Peace

The perfect fusion of fire and space—this secret technique that Huang Wuye had accidentally comprehended became easier to control as his understanding of the Origin Laws of Fire and Space grew increasingly clear.

Its power surged time and again, serving as Huang Wuye's strongest trump card.

The moment it was unleashed, its power shook the heavens, causing the entire space it enveloped to twist and shatter in a frenzy.

Void Death, Void Death—it represented the ultimate in death and solitude.

Yet, the target of this move was the Meteor Kingdom Lord; although the power was heaven-shaking, it was undoubtedly unable to cause the Meteor Kingdom Lord any trouble.

Even so, the Meteor Kingdom Lord was incredibly surprised. He had not expected this little fellow to give him such a massive surprise, nor had he expected him to embark on the path of fusing the laws of fire and space so early.

Though it was still slightly rough, the potential was infinite, and it would be extremely beneficial for the path ahead after becoming an Immortal.

One must know that for an Immortal to become a Universe Venerable, they must either fully comprehend the Law of Time or completely master the Law of Space.

To become a Universe Master, one must perfectly control both major laws, or walk the path of law fusion.

At this moment, Huang Wuye had displayed a talent for the fusion of fire and space laws, which gave him more options once he became a Universe Venerable.

After all, he himself was walking this very path, and thinking of his own situation, he could not help but let out a sigh.

He did not know how many countless ages he had survived, but ever since he stepped into the realm of a Universe Overlord, his progress in strength had become slower and slower.

Although he felt that the distance to becoming a Universe Master was not too far, that tiny, infinitesimal gap was truly like a natural chasm blocking his path forward.

It was visible yet untouchable. Looking at the little fellow before him, he held great expectations for him.

With this little fellow's talent, under their protection, becoming an Immortal or even a Venerable should be no problem, but becoming a Universe Master was still far too difficult.

One must know that in the universe, humanity is counted in units of ten thousand trillion. With each era seeing new iterations, even after countless eras, the number of Universe Masters did not even reach twenty, which showed just how difficult it was to become one.

Even for an ancient existence like him, who had existed since the birth of the universe, becoming a Universe Master was so difficult.

Was his talent insufficient? Those who could become Universe Venerables among countless humans naturally lacked neither talent nor opportunity, yet he still struggled bitterly before the threshold of a Universe Master.

At his level, all that was missing was that flash of inspiration, and his cultivation of disciples was merely to have someone outstanding to stand side-by-side with him.

One must know that sometimes opportunities appear unexpectedly, and seizing those opportunities requires strength; having someone who could provide him with help would undoubtedly be a great advantage.

Huang Wuye was undoubtedly a good seedling; although he was not his direct disciple, he was no different from one.

Thinking of this, his expression tightened, and his divine power fluctuated slightly, dispersing the surrounding flames and spear shadows.

He took a step forward, instantly crossing a thousand miles to appear before Huang Wuye.

"Alright, not bad. You little fellow have given me a huge surprise!"

"Your comprehension of the laws is already on the right track; having that kid Huoyu King guide you is enough for now."

"Now, let me guide you in your spear techniques."

As the Meteor Kingdom Lord spoke, he produced a long spear. He looked directly at Huang Wuye and continued.

"I can see that your foundation in spear techniques is very solid, which is excellent. After all, a ten-thousand-meter tower rises from the ground; a strong foundation allows you to go further and more easily."

"However, your spear technique is very crude, and the combination of laws and spear technique is far too rough."

"Although this old man is not a spear user, all paths to weaponry lead to the same destination; they all share commonalities."

As he spoke, the long spear in his hand moved. A spear shadow instantly appeared in the air, and a flame condensed onto the spear body, held within without dissipating.

A spear shadow shot out from the tip, instantly piercing into a small mountain a thousand miles away, yet not a single sound emerged from it.

Seeing this, Huang Wuye's eyes lit up. He followed the gaze and saw a circular hole several hundred meters wide come into view.

This was not simple at all. If no laws were involved, he could do it himself, but after adding the laws, while the power of the spear technique skyrocketed, the control had decreased.

Like the Meteor Kingdom Lord's attack, which did not leak a single trace of energy, the power was restrained and the penetration was stronger; only by perfectly fusing the laws could this be achieved.

"The laws contained in this attack of mine are not many, but even against your triple-law power, it would crush you. This is the effect of perfectly fused laws."

"Looking at your attacks, although your comprehension of the laws is indeed good, the power you unleash is far from reaching its expected potential."

"The opponents you face now lack proper tutelage and guidance. Once you enter the Virtual Universe Company, this will become one of your major weaknesses."

Glancing at Huang Wuye, the Meteor Kingdom Lord continued.

"As long as you reach fifty percent of perfect law mastery, you will not be weaker than others; at seventy percent, you can defeat those stronger than you; at one hundred percent, you will be invincible among your peers."

"And above that, if you want to be even stronger, you must integrate your will into your spear technique. Use your will to master your spear, extending your will into the technique—this is 'Momentum'."

"Momentum?"

Huang Wuye was somewhat puzzled. He had not expected to hear this somewhat fantasy-like term in Swallowed Star.

"That's right, Momentum. Every famous powerhouse has mastered Momentum, even if they have never specifically studied this power."

"Momentum is a discovery I made over endless years, and the application of it has allowed me to hold every advantage in battles against those of the same level."

The Meteor Kingdom Lord's expression was somewhat smug; this was his trump card, and he did not just talk about it—he thrust his spear toward Huang Wuye.

For a moment, Huang Wuye felt a heaven-shaking sea of fire rushing toward him. His entire body was surrounded by layers of fire, and waves of scorching heat swept through his heart. Just as he was about to react, the flames receded like a tide, and the long spear had already come to a halt at the center of his brow.

"Next, you will study the application of laws and Momentum under my guidance. This is this old man's ultimate trump card."

The Meteor Kingdom Lord withdrew his spear, and as Huang Wuye regained his composure, he smiled slightly.

"Thank you, Grandmaster. I will certainly not let you down."

Huang Wuye hurriedly nodded in gratitude; only after experiencing it for himself did he understand how precious these things were, especially considering that the power wielded by the Meteor Kingdom Lord did not exceed his own.

In the days that followed, Huang Wuye practiced the mastery of laws and momentum diligently under the guidance of the Meteor Kingdom Lord.

Meanwhile, a figure as massive as a mountain drifted between ten thousand mountains and a thousand rivers on Giant Wood Planet, with another figure on its back spreading their mental power in all directions, searching for something.

This pair was Dragon Owl and the Gluttonous Golden Ape clone of Huang Wuye, Night Emperor.

As time passed, they had nearly traversed the entirety of Giant Wood Planet.

At this moment, only one special place remained untrodden, and they were currently standing right before this region.

Due to its highly unique terrain, Giant Wood Planet was covered in countless giant beasts, which possessed immense size and strength.

However, they generally lacked intelligence and could not be considered part of the demon race, so they were commonly referred to as monsters.

Yet, in this boundless land, there was one unique area where no giant beasts lived.

Here, there existed only a tiny species similar to the elves of mythology; they were only half the size of an average adult, possessed faces similar to humans from Earth, were timid by nature, and were endowed with the ability to fly by two pairs of transparent wings.

This region, spanning nearly ten million miles, was inhabited solely by these small creatures, and it had been named the Pygmy Kingdom.

The reason why the weak Pygmy Kingdom was able to occupy such a vast territory had to be attributed to the towering trees and flowers that could move.

They could grow rapidly and possessed great strength; under the manipulation of the Pygmy Kingdom, even the most powerful giant beasts would meet their end here.

Moreover, the Pygmy Kingdom lacked the food that giant beasts required, so over time, this region had become one of the few peaceful sanctuaries on Giant Wood Planet.

Today, however, this region was about to welcome two uninvited guests, who now stood at the gates of the Pygmy Kingdom, ready to shatter this long-lost tranquility.
