After possessing the Golden Horned Beast, although he only had initial control, Luo Feng's combat experience was much richer than that of the original Golden Horned Beast. With his powerful physical body, he directly confronted Thunder God's domain.

After possessing the Golden Horned Beast, Luo Feng had a sudden realization, as if he understood what a domain truly was.

This feeling is like an innate instinct; once you reach a certain level, you will automatically master it. If the original Golden Horned Beast were still alive, perhaps it would naturally develop a domain soon—this is an ability deeply ingrained in its genes.

Just like the three Innate Secret Technique of the Golden Horned Beast, they don't need to be learned at all; every Golden Horned Beast naturally masters the three Innate Secret Technique at birth.

This is the immense advantage of bloodlines at the pinnacle of the universe.

Other races, even if they possess Innate Secret Technique, can only have one at most. To possess two is already a genius. Undoubtedly, the Golden Horned Beast, which possesses three Innate Secret Technique, is the epitome of terror.

If it hadn't perished on Earth, the entire Silver Blue Empire might have soon been reduced to a lifeless wasteland, with countless planets being devoured by it. Once the Golden Horned Beast breaks through to Immortal, even the Black Dragon Mountain Empire would not have been spared.

After the fierce battle, Thunder God lay on the beach, utterly dejected, letting the seawater soak his face once more, the tears in his eyes indistinguishable from seawater.

"Isn't it better for me to just focus on my cultivation? Why do I have to keep comparing myself to these inhuman creatures?"

Well, that's it. Among the four of us, I'm at the bottom again. I used to be able to beat Luo Feng, but now even Luo Feng has surpassed me.

What use would I have for this field?

"Get up, stop pretending to be dead. Your domain is already very strong. Didn't you see that you've already shattered the scales of the Golden Horned Beast?" Hong kicked Thunder God. Having been together for so long, Hong naturally knew that Thunder God was just being silly again.

Thunder God's personality is just like that—unpretentious and straightforward, and he doesn't care about other people's opinions. He has always maintained the youthful spirit of someone who has an infinite love for ancient martial arts culture, and this hasn't changed despite changes in age and status.

This is the Childlike Heart.

Being strong is a personal matter; why should a group of weak people impose moral standards on the strong? The weak believe the strong need to be ethereal and otherworldly, to appear mature and composed. Does that mean the strong must live according to their expectations?

No, those who live with the mindset of the weak, told by the weak that they must be indifferent and detached, strive to live up to the expectations of others. Such people can never become true strongmen.

The Golden Horned Beast landed beside Thunder God. Originally, after devouring a large amount of Wood Bud Crystal, the wounds on the Golden Horned Beast's body had healed. However, after the battle with Thunder God, the Golden Horned Beast was once again covered in wounds.

At this point, although Thunder God was still unable to defeat the Golden Horned Beast on his own, the Golden Horned Beast could no longer easily crush him.

"Hong is right. In fact, Thunder God, you have begun to grasp the threshold of the Law, but your Law Comprehension in your own domain is not clear enough yet." In this battle, Zhang Junbao could see that Thunder God's strength had improved considerably compared to before.

This is the benefit of comprehending the Law; unlike physical strength, which requires accumulation over time, one's strength will soar once the Law are comprehended.

"Hehe, according to what my senior brother told me before, I have observed the characteristics of countless lightning bolts. Originally, my domain was to maximize speed to generate tremendous explosive power."

Although the effect was not bad, it was still somewhat incompatible with the Law of Lightning. Lightning is not just about speed.

After fighting the Golden Horned Beast, I wondered, what exactly is lightning?

Lightning in nature is the result of the discharge of positive and negative charges, and it is extremely powerful. Theoretically, by continuously increasing the potential difference and the amount of charge, it is possible to achieve an infinitely large attack force.

However, my Lightning Domain is only generated by my Cosmic Origin Energy, and is limited by my cultivation level, so the limitations are too great.

However, during the battle with the Golden Horned Beast, I discovered that the metal element severely countered me; my lightning was absorbed by the Golden Horned Beast, causing me to lose control.

Isn't this similar to metal being charged? So I simply treated the Golden Horned Beast as one pole of the lightning, and myself as the other pole, thus doubling the effectiveness of my attacks!

"Hahahaha..." Thunder God explained.

"The Tao follows nature; even the Cosmic Origin Energy actually conforms to the laws governing the universe. Thunder God certainly showed off his knowledge to us!"

Everyone talks about comprehending the Law, but what exactly are these Law?

I believe that the manifestations of all things are the embodiment of Law.

Analyzing the relevant fundamental theories deepens the understanding of the execution of Law, which is also a form of comprehending the Law. It is not only through mysterious cosmic secrets that one can comprehend the Law; those secrets are merely summaries of the Law phenomena that other powerful individuals have observed, forming a set of Law' execution rules within a certain range.

"It still cannot escape the fundamental laws governing the universe," Zhang Junbao nodded and said.

Thunder God's actions were essentially a manifestation of the Law, Law of perceiving them from a microscopic perspective. And the true Law are composed of countless microscopic phenomena.

The process by which a powerful person uses secret techniques is to control their own primal Cosmic Origin Energy and drive it to act in accordance with the laws of Law.

It sounds easy, but in practice it is extremely difficult. There are countless ways to utilize Cosmic Origin Energy, and you can't just combine them randomly to achieve the desired effect.

This is one of the reasons why some top scientists convert to mythology on their deathbeds. When they analyze microscopic phenomena to their extremes, they lack overarching guidance and cannot unify these microscopic phenomena. However, when they come into contact with theology, they find that theology has already achieved the same effect with another set of theories.

How can top scientists not question the very foundation of science? Science and theology, in fact, have the potential to be unified.

The difference lies in the so-called secret method, which scientists on Earth have not yet realized. Given Earth's current level of technology and cultivation, it is not yet sufficient to unify the two.

Scientists understand Law from the microscopic world, while theology derives Law from the macroscopic world.

And what combines the two is the martial artist!

"Martial artists are not necessarily brutes. Many powerful individuals have made unique achievements in various fields, and their grasp of scientific theories is no less than that of top scientists," Babata said.

As the group discussed what constituted Law and secret techniques, Zhang Junbao, Hong, Thunder God, and Babata delved deeper into the subject. The truth became clearer through debate, and Luo Feng listened with rapt attention, realizing that his previous understanding of Law had been far too limited.

Are martial arts masters necessarily brutes who wield swords and hack and slash?

No, most truly strong individuals can be considered masters of a particular science.

Those who only know how to wield a knife and kill brutes rely on their physical strength and experience to cultivate, but martial artists who are good at utilizing civilization rely on theory to crush their peers.

I'm not afraid of martial artists who can wield swords; I'm afraid of martial artists who are cultured.

" Thunder God's domain is derived from observing and executing lightning, so what should my domain be like?" Luo Feng couldn't help but ask.

"Gold represents the ultimate Yang and the most rigid principle. Gold is associated with slaughter because the way of gold can break all laws."

No matter how strong the enemy's defenses are, how can they withstand the extreme hardness of my Metal Element Way!

Countless thoughts converged in Luo Feng's mind. He felt as if he were swimming in an ocean of Law, touching the embodiment of each Law.

The Golden Horned Beast's hooves were themselves peerless swords; with a gentle swipe, the sea was instantly split in two, never to recover.

Around the Golden Horned Beast Luo Feng, there seemed to be a mist formed by countless blades, which were composed of countless tiny blades that were almost invisible to the naked eye.

"A domain! Luo Feng is evolving his own domain!" Babata exclaimed.

Although the Golden Horned Beast can automatically master its domain when it grows to a certain level, this innate domain is relatively rigid, more like a bodily instinct, and lacks variation. If the Golden Horned Beast cannot fully comprehend its naturally derived domain, then the upper limit of its domain is almost fixed.

However, if Luo Feng comprehends the domain himself, and combines it with the Golden Horned Beast's exaggerated metal-type talent, the resulting domain will possess both the innate characteristics of a natural domain and the flexibility and powerful potential of his own domain comprehension, making it the ideal state of a domain.

"As expected of the Golden Horned Beast, its affinity for the Law of Metal is extremely high, as if the entire Law is forcibly instilling its understanding into it."

" Luo Feng's newly acquired domain has instantly reached the Fourth-Level Domain!" Hong watched with envy.

He had mastered the domain for decades before finally reaching the Fourth-Level Domain, while Luo Feng had only just comprehended the domain and had instantly caught up with the results of his decades of hard work. This was the powerful advantage of a top-tier bloodline.

Just as the group on Earth were using the Golden Horned Beast as a test subject and fighting Luo Feng one by one, somewhere in the deep space of the Milky Way Galaxy, water-like ripples suddenly appeared in space. The ripples grew larger and larger, eventually forming a wormhole, from which a spaceship suddenly emerged.

"Captain, Captain, we've escaped! We've escaped! We're finally out of that damned, bizarre space!"

"Haha, you escaped! Haha."

Inside the spaceship, some creatures that resembled humans were excitedly shouting, speaking a language from one of the countless races of humanity in the universe.

Inside the spacecraft's control room.

The eight crew members were extremely excited, and standing in front of the control panel was a handsome middle-aged man, about 19 meters tall, wearing a silver-gray combat suit. He was tall and handsome, with slightly pointed ears and a hint of red in his eyes. He was the captain of this adventure spaceship.

"Quickly record the information about this 'wormhole'. The Black Dragon Mountain Empire's records don't contain any information about this wormhole, so it might yield some unexpected gains!"

Once we've confirmed our location, we'll immediately report it to the family!

"Yes!"

The people on the spaceship cooperated well, clearly explorers who had been venturing into space for a long time.

"Captain, this is actually the ' Milky Way Galaxy '! It was occupied by an invincible power a very, very long time ago, and even the spatial coordinates have been erased!"

"I heard that the powerful figure has fallen, and this area is now a star field that no one can find. That means that the legacy of that powerful figure is all ours!" a crew member said excitedly.
