The pitch-black death energy that had churned and raged across the sky abruptly stilled, bowing in worship.
The endless aura of annihilation throughout the Demonic Grotto's outskirts surged madly toward Shiheng's body, pouring into it and tempering it.
The Death Law flowing around him was pitch-black and pure, domineering and profound, a hundred, a thousand times more powerful than the Demonic Grotto's natural death energy!
This was the purified Death Law unique to Shiheng, pure death that he had barely managed to refine into form through his four-system mutated divine soul, sitting motionless in Purgatory for ten years and drawing in and expelling death energy hundreds of millions of times.
But this breakthrough was by no means complete mastery across the board.
His progress in the Four Great Origin Laws was clearly differentiated, with enormous disparities and not the slightest rapidly achieved closed cycle:
Death Law: thoroughly settled and honed, it had firmly entered the Midgod level. The only one to progress relatively quickly during his ten years of bitter cultivation in the Demonic Grotto, it had reached the thirtieth layer.
Destruction Laws: making slight progress through the foundation of years of slaughter, they had only reached the twenty-seventh layer, still far from peak Midgod.
Fate Laws: they remained at the threshold of a near-Midgod. His main focus now was on fusing variant laws. The Fate Laws needed only an opportunity; bitter cultivation was useless. He might advance tomorrow, or it might take decades.
Life Law: although it had reached peak Lowgod, it had yet to reach its limit and was currently Shiheng's only weakness.
As for the most central fusion of the four different laws, the fusion of the Life and Death Laws was approaching mastery, while the overall fusion of the other three-the Death Law, Destruction Laws, and
