The reason he had chosen to exchange for [Space Law] and [Energy Law] first—
was because, after careful consideration, Natsume felt they were currently the most useful and most necessary two.
There was no need to elaborate on [Energy Law].
It was originally the primary authority wielded by [Otsutsuki Hishiki].
Without exchanging for it, he would have no way of deceiving [Otsutsuki Meishiki] afterward.
Moreover, the [Energy Law], worth 450 million, was far from weak. It was one of the higher laws. Otherwise, Hishiki could never have risen all the way to the position of [Lower Second Seat].
As for [Space Law]?
It was inherently one of the most practical higher laws.
Its offensive power, mobility, convenience, support capabilities... all ranked among the best.
And once the [Expedition to the New Starfield] began, he would be facing immense distances measured in light-years at every turn.
If he could master powerful spatial movement abilities, it would undoubtedly be more convenient and advantageous.
It could even create unexpected ambush opportunities during battle.
The process that followed went very smoothly.
Natsume was already a [Demigod], and he had long become familiar with mastering authorities.
Not to mention the system's bonuses.
The chance of failure was practically negligible.
During this time, while mastering [Energy Law], Natsume also took the opportunity to temper that [Hishiki Clone].
He allowed [Energy Law] to permeate its flesh, restoring its [Demigod-level] physical strength.
Now, he no longer had to fear coming into close contact with Meishiki.
It also made up for one of his greatest weaknesses.
Of course, Natsume's true body had been strengthened in succession by the three laws of [Time], [Space], and [Energy]!
It had already surpassed quite a few [Main Family Elders].
After all, most lower-seat elders had only mastered one primary authority.
Most upper-seat
