"Didn't Master just ask me why I was hiding in the sea of lava? I hid there to cultivate using the Heart of Flame."
The Heart of Flame, the core of the Heart of Flame Law Core that was taken by its master, was the very reason I came here.
"Cultivating with the Heart of Flame? You not only gained the recognition of the Wood Origin Law, but also cultivate the Law of Fire?" Zhang Junbao looked at the Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella in front of him with some surprise. He didn't expect her to be a genius World Lord cultivated two Law.
Most World Lord in the universe focus on cultivating the Law they are proficient in. As long as they fully comprehend a fundamental Law, they can become Immortal Expert with endless lifespans. After all, no matter how strong World Lord is, their lifespan is finite. Only by becoming Immortal Expert and possessing infinite lifespans can one have enough time to comprehend the extremely profound Space-Time Law.
Therefore, it is rare for World Lord to be distracted by cultivating the second Law. After all, a World Lord who has comprehended both Law to a level of 50 cannot defeat a World Lord Law Comprehension level of 90.
Yes, Master.
After entering this Chaotic God Demon Domain, I was startled to find that my connection with the Space Law was gradually disappearing. Unable to control the Law of Space Control, even my Mother Emperor Nest was greatly restricted.
Some Zerg Warrior are larger than the Mother Emperor Nest. Since they cannot Space Control the Law of space, they cannot open the space inside the Mother Emperor Nest and can only breed some smaller Zerg Warrior.
My abilities are severely limited.
I happened to arrive near the Flame God City. Originally, I cultivated the Law of Wood, so I was naturally at a disadvantage when facing the World Lord the Flame Law. However, I also understood the value of the Heart of Flame, so I wanted to try to comprehend the Flame Law. One reason was to prepare myself to seize the Heart of Flame, and the other was to try to nurture Zerg Warrior of other attributes.
"Master, this is how the Blazing Mantis Race you saw came about," explained Isabella, the Zerg Mother Emperor.
Zhang Junbao nodded in agreement, signaling her to continue.
"But when I was nurturing the warriors of the Blazing Mantis Race, I discovered something different. I had seen other Blazing Mantis Race nurtured by other Mother Emperor of the same clan who cultivated the Law of Fire, and the warriors they nurtured were far less powerful than the Blazing Mantis Race warriors I nurtured."
But the secret techniques and methods of nurturing I used were the same, so I wondered if this was because I was simultaneously practicing the Law of Wood.
Upon hearing the introduction from Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella of the Zerg, Zhang Junbao couldn't help but admire her. Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella's comprehension was indeed remarkable; she was able to deduce the possibility of the mutual generation of Law from an accidental birth of Zerg Warrior. Such comprehension was enough to crush most geniuses in the universe.
"So you speculate that the combination of the Law of Wood and the Flame Law can create even more powerful Zerg Warrior?"
"That's right. Originally, the Zerg Warrior conceived by our Mother Emperor mainly used materials devoured by the Mother Emperor Nest. However, most of the materials I originally collected contained the Law of Wood, while in the Flame God City, there are only materials containing the Flame Law. Even the World Lord live here cultivate the Flame Law."
So I tried to fuse the two materials, and the resulting Blazing Mantis Race warrior was indeed much stronger than before. It not only possessed the powerful attack power of the Flame Law, but also the powerful vitality of the Law of Wood.
I was already World Lord recognized by the very source of the Law of Wood. After giving birth to the Blazing Mantis Race warriors, I realized that this might be the key to breaking the curse of the Chaotic God Demon Domain and Demon Realm. Therefore, I decided to hide in the Sea of Magma and wait for an opportunity to seize the Heart of Flame.
"And during my previous battle with my master, seeing that he was still able to use the secret techniques of spacetime in actual combat, I became certain that there was definitely a chance to break the curse of the Chaotic God Demon Domain!" Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella of the Zerg said firmly.
Zhang Junbao glanced at her, smiled, and said, "That's right, your guess makes a lot of sense. As you can see, I can still Control of Space-Time the Law space and time in the Chaotic God Demon Domain."
I deduce that to Control of Space-Time the Law spacetime in the Chaotic God Demon Domain, one would need to master all eight fundamental Law and fuse them together.
"Although you have already grasped the Law of Wood and Flame Law, you still have a long way to go to break through your limitations."
A World Lord who cultivated the Law of Wood comprehended the mutual generation of Law after seeing the Heart of Flame. The World Lord who originally lived in the divine city probably never imagined that the Law Core would not only give them the opportunity to improve rapidly, but also limit their chance to break the calamity of the Chaotic God Demon Domain.
After all, with treasures Law Core that can accelerate cultivation, how many people would choose to change their cultivation Law and seek out Law Core that don't suit their attributes?
In this way, the World Lord and even the Immortal within the divine city will never understand that only by integrating multiple fundamental Law can they regain control of the Law Control of Space-Time.
"I see! Thank you so much, Master, for clearing up my doubts. You are so kind to me!"
During the conversation, the Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella instinctively displayed her allure. She currently harbored no hostility towards Zhang Junbao; she was merely demonstrating her abilities.
The strength of the Zerg Mother Emperor is measured in two aspects. First, the quantity and quality of the Zerg Warrior they spawn is a crucial factor in Mother Emperor rise to the pinnacle of the universe. Their endless swarm tactics are not something anyone can withstand.
Secondly, there is her own allure. The Zerg Mother Emperor are all masters of Spiritual Force. Ordinary humans only have one soul origin, yet many powerful Spirit Reader are born. However, the Zerg Mother Emperor have as many as ten thousand soul origins, enabling them to simultaneously control millions of Zerg Warrior to cooperate in battle. Their Spiritual Force talent is extremely terrifying.
When even the Zerg Warrior could not protect them, their allure became their last resort for survival. It could be said that the power of allure was also the best manifestation of the Zerg Mother Emperor's strength.
"Put away your seductive charms. You haven't mastered pure lustful allure yet. Even Hong now probably surpasses you in controlling desires. It won't work on me, so don't waste your energy," Zhang Junbao said, glancing at the Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella.
"Yes, Master."
Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella of the Zerg was disappointed and toned down her allure, but her very existence was already incredibly tempting.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Junbao shook his head and sighed, "The universe is not only governed by Law. All life has the instinct to reproduce. The Zerg Mother Emperor is a special race that has taken this instinct to its extreme. No wonder she has become a powerful race on par with humans."
Zhang Junbao was not opposed to the Zerg Mother Emperor herself. In the end, whether it was nurturing Zerg Warrior or cultivating the art of charm, it was just a way for the Zerg Mother Emperor to become stronger by utilizing her own advantages. There was no essential difference between her and the cultivation of human martial artists and Spirit Reader.
Even among human Spirit Reader, there are those who specialize in the art of seduction and lust; seduction itself is a branch of Spirit Reader Illusionist.
"Your use of charm as the Zerg Mother Emperor's last resort was too crude."
"Kindness?"
Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella of the Zerg originally thought that she would be reprimanded by Zhang Junbao for using charm without permission, but to her surprise, Zhang Junbao not only did not reprimand her, but also said that her charm was too crude, which left Isabella somewhat bewildered.
The mighty Zerg Mother Emperor was told by a human that her allure wasn't enough? Although she was now Zhang Junbao's Soul Slave and wouldn't contradict Zhang Junbao, she still instinctively felt a trace of annoyance.
What? You're not convinced?
Isabella wouldn't dare.
"I dare not, but I'm still not convinced. Although you are my Soul Slave, you seem to have some talent, so I will train you well."
Charm is one of the core secret techniques cultivated by your Zerg Mother Emperor. The Mother Emperor's race is born with outstanding Spiritual Force, and I can sense your immense Spiritual Force. However, it is merely the charm of lust. It may work against some powerful individuals with low mental cultivation, but once they can see through the illusions of the world, your charm will have no effect whatsoever. You can only suppress them with pure Spiritual Force.
But without Controller Spiritual Force, how much power can the Zerg Mother Emperor unleash through brute force attacks relying solely on Spiritual Force?
"I'll teach you how to unleash the full power of your charm another time. Or, when you encounter Hong, I'll let you experience it in his illusionary world, and then you'll understand just how simple and straightforward your current charm is."
"The Hong that Master mentioned, could it be some illusion master from the Human Race? I am a genius from the Mother Emperor Mystic Realm among the Zerg, equivalent to Primal Secret Region Member!"
Zhang Junbao raised an eyebrow and looked at Isabella with surprise. He hadn't expected that his Soul Slave was actually a top genius among the Zerg. No wonder her comprehension was so high.
Without Zhang Junbao, Isabella might have truly comprehended the secrets of the Fusion Law in the Chaotic God Demon Domain, and she might very well have been the one to sweep across the entire Chaotic God Demon Domain.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in space adventures. No matter how talented Isabella is, after becoming Zhang Junbao's Soul Slave, her fate is no longer in her own hands.
"He is one of my companions. In some ways, Hong is indeed a master of illusion. If we can leave the Chaotic God Demon Domain, you will have the opportunity to meet him."
However, I'm curious, as a top genius of the Zerg, why would you appear in a human's secret realm? Is this some kind of infiltration mission for you?
Zhang Junbao finally raised his question. Ever since he met Isabella, Zhang Junbao had been wondering about this issue, but Isabella's answer was completely Zhang Junbao.
"Master, I did not enter Human Race territory at all."
"What? How did you get into this Chaotic God Demon Domain?"
Zhang Junbao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized the important information contained in Isabella's words: if she hadn't entered the Human Territory, how did she appear in the Chaotic God Demon Domain?
Zhang Junbao had always believed that someone from the Human Race or a subordinate race of the Human Race had been enslaved by Isabella's Soul Enslavement, and that's why she had tried to bring him here.
"I was originally training in the Zerg Mother Emperor Mystic Realm, but suddenly a black hole appeared in the realm and sucked me in. Later, I met several other people who had also been sucked in, and discovered that they were not native to the Zerg Secret Region Realm, but came from the Human Territory. Only then did I realize that this place was the same as the Purgatory Abyss in the Human Race's Primal Secret Region."
"Were you sucked in from the Zerg's secret realm?"
Zhang Junbao was shocked. The Zerg Mother Emperor in front of him had not infiltrated the Primal Secret Region through a spy to enter the Purgatory Abyss, but had come from a secret realm within the Zerg Territory.
This means that the Chaotic God Demon Domain is intricately connected with both the Human Race's Purgatory Abyss and the Zerg Territory's Mother Emperor Mystic Realm.
The black hole that Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella of the Zerg mentioned is probably the Eye of the Abyss.
"Why is it that these secret realms, separated by two vast cosmic regions, can simultaneously enter the Chaotic God Demon Domain? What exactly does this peculiar secret realm represent?"
Zhang Junbao originally thought that the Chaotic God Demon Domain should be a secret realm within the Purgatory Abyss, since there are precedents in the universe for secret realms to exist within secret realms.
Some high-level secret realms are hidden within low-level secret realms. Perhaps this is because the environment of the Original Universe is insufficient to give birth to such secret realms. Only the special environment of a secret realm can give birth to a higher-level secret realm.
But he never expected that the Chaotic God Demon Domain was actually connected to the Zerg Mother Emperor Mystic Realm.
"Besides you, were there any other powerful individuals absorbed into the Chaotic God Demon Domain?"
Zhang Junbao asked, worried that if those entering were not only World Lord Level, but also Immortal or even Universe Venerable, the Dangerous Level of the Chaotic God Demon Domain would rise again.
" The Mother Emperor Mystic Realm is the top-tier secret realm among the Zerg, and very few people are qualified to train there. Tens of millions of epochs ago, the Mother Emperor Mystic Realm Mother Emperor Mystic Realm to have undergone a major change. After that, entry was forbidden to Immortal and Universe Venerable, and only World Lord geniuses were allowed to train there." Isabella shook her head and continued.
"A top-tier secret realm that only allows World Lord Level to train?"
Zhang Junbao frowned slightly. Even for a top-tier race like the Zerg, a top-level secret realm was extremely important. Unless a major event occurred, it was impossible to completely seal it off. Both the inherent danger of the secret realm and the treasures it contained were of immense value.
Why are Immortal Expert prohibited from entering?
"I don't know either. It's a secret that's forbidden to mention among the Zerg," Isabella said with a look of shame. As Soul Slave, she felt ashamed that she couldn't answer Zhang Junbao's question.
What kind of unforeseen event would cause the Zerg to directly seal off a top-tier secret realm, preventing even Immortal Expert from entering?
"Sigh, forget it. The Zerg Territory is too far away from me, and figuring it out won't be something that can be done in a short time. The important thing now is to find a way to leave here." Zhang Junbao shook his head, giving up on his plan to explore the mysteries of the Zerg Secret Region.
"I initially thought the appearance of the Eye of the Abyss was just an occasional occurrence, but now it seems to contain some kind of special pattern. However, we currently have too little information to draw any conclusions."
"However, I think the eight Law Core are probably closely related to the changes in the secret realm!"
" Feitian, mark the locations of the eight Law Core in the record."
"Yes, Master!"
A beam of light was projected from the Feitian, and information about the location of the eight Law Core was presented to Zhang Junbao in a three-dimensional projection.
The eight Law Core intertwined and rotated rapidly in the void. Their laws were extremely complex. Although there were only eight cores, Zhang Junbao seemed to see countless transformations evolving from them.
"The eight Law Core are not planar distributions, but rather move rapidly in a completely three-dimensional space, subtly interconnected, and their evolution is extremely complex."
After observing for a while, Zhang Junbao felt that he probably wouldn't be able to decipher the mysteries of the eight Law Core in a short time.
"Ah!!!"
Suddenly, the Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella let out a scream, clutching her head and collapsing to the ground, struggling frantically.
"Huh? What's going on? I didn't sense any attack!"
Zhang Junbao was immediately shocked. Why was the Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella suddenly injured?
Isabella, what's wrong?
"Master, I feel like my head is about to explode! The eight Law Core are emitting a mysterious power that's bombarding my soul! Save me, Master!"
Isabella wailed in agony.
"How could that be? I'm perfectly fine!"
" Feitian, turn off the projector!"
Zhang Junbao spoke up, Feitian immediately shut down the simulated projection. Sure enough, after the projection of the Law Core was turned off, Isabella finally calmed down.
"Huff... huff... thank you... thank you, Master..."
Isabella said, her eyes filled with terror.
What exactly happened?
"Reporting to Master, I was just trying to simulate the laws of the eight Law Core in my sea of consciousness, but my entire soul felt like it was being annihilated bit by bit, causing me immense pain."
Even if I stop the simulation, it's no use. If you hadn't turned off the projection in time, my soul would probably have been annihilated.
Zhang Junbao frowned slightly. He had just tried to deduce the execution rules of the eight Law Core, but he didn't find anything unusual. He just felt that the execution rules of these eight Law Core were extremely profound and he couldn't see through them.
Instead, it possessed an extremely mysterious artistic conception that made him want to keep pursuing and exploring it.
Just as he was about to continue exploring, he was interrupted by Isabella's scream.
"There must be some secret. The eight Law Core couldn't possibly be useless in the Chaotic God Demon Domain. Merely simulating the execution of laws was enough to easily Soul Annihilation of Isabella, World Lord Level. Where did the attack originate from?"
Why am I okay?
Not only Zhang Junbao, but even Isabella was racking her brains, unable to figure out what had happened.
Zhang Junbao opened his domain, enveloping his body, while simultaneously manipulating the core of the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation to simulate the execution of the eight Law Core. His eyes shimmered with seven-colored light as he stared intently at the changes within the array plate. However, each time he tried to operate according to the laws of the Law Core, he was unable to perfectly simulate them.
"What's going on? What force is interfering with me, making it impossible for the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation to simulate this wondrous execution pattern?"
Without saying a word, Zhang Junbao soared into the sky, flying thousands of kilometers away from the array plate, and overlooked the operation of the entire array from a distance.
A moment later, Zhang Junbao returned. He closed his eyes and focused his mind into his Life Core Life Core, where he once again activated the Eight Great Fundamental Laws.
"There is some kind of force interfering with the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation, which is so powerful that even a treasure of this level cannot withstand it."
I firmly believe that since there are no other powerful beings around, the only possibility for this power is that it comes from the Universe Origin!
Thinking of this, Zhang Junbao took a deep breath, even he was startled.
"The execution rules of the Law Core have no problems on the virtual projection and operate without any problems within my Life Core. However, neither the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation nor the Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella can simulate these execution rules."
That's really weird!
Zhang Junbao's lips curled up slightly. Although he had countless questions in his mind, they also aroused his desire to explore.
He was now certain that the operating principles of the eight Law Core concealed a tremendous secret. This secret, like a cat's paw, kept tickling the depths of his heart, making him unable to resist the urge to explore it further.
"Master, what did you find?" Isabella asked, puzzled.
"I have indeed discovered something interesting, but I cannot yet explore its mysteries. This Chaotic God Demon Domain is becoming more and more intriguing."
Zhang Junbao stood with his hands behind his back, looked around, and then focused his gaze on the vast emptiness, a faint smile on his face.
"The fundamental Law that are clearly distinct, the Space-Time Law that are suppressed, the two great secret realms that connect humanity and the Zerg, and even the strange operating rules that interfere with the Universe Origin —understanding any one of these mysteries would probably take a lot of time."
This hidden realm, as if just awakened, is gradually revealing its charm to us.
" Feitian, put away the Flame God City. Let's head to the next divine city."
Yes, Master.
Are you no longer going to explore the mysteries of this place?
"It's not that I've given up exploring, it's just that I currently have far too little information. Instead of racking my brains, I'd rather first obtain all eight Law Core. At that time, I believe the mysteries of the Chaotic God Demon Domain Realm will gradually be unveiled."
Feitian skillfully packed all the valuable items in the entire Flame God City into his World Ring. As for the World Lord, after Isabella ordered them to self-destruct, they were reduced to ashes within Zhang Junbao's domain.
The World Lord died quietly, without even having the right to self-destruct.
Watching Zhang Junbao and Feitian's skillful teamwork, Zerg Mother Emperor Isabella of the Zerg had a feeling that this wasn't the first time they had taken over this divine city.
She originally thought herself a top genius, but after meeting Zhang Junbao, she realized that she was far inferior to Zhang Junbao in both the application of Law and the understanding of the Universe Origin.
Even when Zhang Junbao explained the Law Core, she still couldn't understand them.
"Just what kind of being is my master? He is so exceptionally talented, and he exudes a unique and captivating charm that has me completely captivated."
"This is definitely not a secret technique of Spiritual Force!" Isabella muttered to herself as she watched Zhang Junbao's retreating figure.
