A playful smile graced the corner of Lin Feng's lips, completely unmoved by the Cosmic Law's somewhat panicked "plea for mercy."
He stepped forward slowly, treading on the chaotic energy as steadily as if he were walking on solid ground.
"Cosmic Law, you have moments of fear too? You are the embodiment of the rules of this universe, an existence that countless beings look up to." Lin Feng's voice echoed in this space, tinged with a hint of mockery.
The vortex seemed to sense Lin Feng's approach, and its speed of rotation accelerated. The indescribable power at its center also faintly exuded a bit of pressure, attempting to stop Lin Feng from getting closer.
However, Lin Feng was completely unaffected. The chaotic origin power within his body surged. He stretched out his hand, and the Chaos Power transformed into a giant palm, which he slammed down directly in front of the vortex.
Instantly, a majestic force surged out and collided with the indescribable power at the center of the chaotic vortex, stirring up waves of invisible energy that seemed to shake even this most mysterious place in the universe.
"Hmph, you think you can stop me with this?" Lin Feng snorted coldly. The light of the giant palm grew more brilliant, and its power became even stronger.
Under the pressure of the giant palm, the rotational speed of the chaotic vortex gradually slowed down. The power at its center also seemed to be under immense pressure, showing signs of being unable to hold on.
"Cosmic Law, you are merely a manifestation of a rule in this universe. But I have already transcended the constraints of this universe. Your power is not enough to pose a threat to me."
The chaotic vortex seemed to sense Lin Feng's power and confidence and began to undergo a subtle change. The indescribable power at its center gradually receded, as if admitting defeat, yet it also seemed to be gathering strength for a counterattack.
However, Lin Feng would not give it any chance to strike back. He let out a sudden shout, and the Chaos Power in his body erupted once more. The giant palm clenched abruptly, as if it were about to crush the entire chaotic vortex.
In the face of this immense power, the chaotic vortex finally could not hold on and shattered with a boom.
The indescribable power at the center of the vortex also dissipated, turning into streams of chaotic energy that spread out in this space, wandering and floating, but not leaving this area.
Lin Feng stood tall amidst the chaos, closing his eyes to perceive everything around him.
His mind seemed to merge with this chaos, allowing him to clearly perceive the flow of every wisp of chaotic energy and the traces left by the power that had just dissipated.
"So that's how it is. The center of that vortex was the will born from the Cosmic Law." Lin Feng murmured to himself, a flash of understanding in his eyes.
What he had just destroyed was not just the appearance of the chaotic vortex, but the materialized existence of the Cosmic Law in this specific region.
And now, with the dissipation of that will, this place had returned to its original chaotic state. Everything had returned to the most primitive and purest starting point.
Just then, a faint yet firm fluctuation came from the distant depths of the universe, catching Lin Feng's attention. He opened his eyes, and his gaze penetrated through layers of chaos, looking towards the source of the fluctuation.
"Hmm? Is this... the birth of a new Cosmic Law?" Lin Feng speculated to himself.
The Cosmic Law was not eternal and unchanging, but rather it was constantly being born and dying with the evolution of the universe. And now, he seemed to be witnessing the moment of a new Cosmic Law's birth.
Layer upon layer of fluctuations spread out from here, crossing the void, traversing the sea of stars, and affecting every corner of the universe.
"The demise of the old is accompanied by the birth of the new. This chaotic region is evolving laws based on the existing entities in the current universe, nurturing new rules and powers."
With a thought, Lin Feng forcefully inserted his "Using the Body as a Seed" method and all its related concepts into it, forcing it to perceive them.
This nascent Cosmic Law was like an incredibly delicate young woman whose room was invaded by a tall and sturdy neighbor. It was like an irresistible force, deeply penetrating the tender domain of the newborn Cosmic Law.
This new law, still in its budding state, was weak and pure in power, and it seemed helpless against Lin Feng's sudden "visit."
It could only silently endure the concepts Lin Feng was pouring into it, striving to swallow and digest this information continuously.
Lin Feng was not in a hurry, but patiently, bit by bit, he instilled this information into the newborn law.
Under Lin Feng's nurturing, the new law began to gradually show its vitality. It was like a newly sprouted seedling that began to grow strong under the nourishment of sunlight and rain.
Under the continuous impact of the information, it began to transform into the shape Lin Feng had hoped for.
It has already become the shape I envisioned...
A Cosmic Law that has not developed its own self-awareness is a good law.
"The heavens move in a constant way, but the universe is inconstant. Laws must also adapt to the times, constantly changing and being reborn." Lin Feng whispered to himself, engraving this final concept into the deepest part of the Cosmic Law.
Weng~~~
As Lin Feng's words fell, the newborn Cosmic Law seemed to be touched by an invisible force, letting out a slight hum. The sound of this hum echoed in the chaos, carrying an indescribable rhythm.
Lin Feng chuckled lightly, and with a move, he transformed into a stream of light and disappeared from this chaotic region.
Douluo Star.
Lin Feng's figure appeared where the Weiyu Grotto-Heaven was originally located.
"An instant is eternity, one proof is eternal."
Lin Feng murmured softly, feeling the flow of time with emotion in his heart.
From the moment he finished repairing the Weiyu Grotto-Heaven to the completion of his Dao's proof, excluding the recent journey to the corner of the universe, he had accomplished everything in but a single thought, a single instant.
As he was now, he could be said to truly reign supreme over everything.
The true spirit is indestructible, only the Dao is eternal.
As long as his Dao existed, as long as traces of him remained in the universe, as long as there were people or things that knew of him, he would never truly perish.
In comparison, the resurrection divine skills of the gods in the Douluo Divine Realm, their rebirth after death, were merely a small and limited means in the grand scheme of the universe.
Even if those so-called gods could be resurrected, they were only following established rules and restrictions. But he, Lin Feng, had already transcended these constraints and reached a state of true eternity.
"So-called resurrection is merely a part of the cycle of life. But I have already surpassed the cycle and achieved immortality."
Lin Feng whispered to himself. He had reached the end of the path of cultivation in this universe.
During his nirvanic rebirth, he had reflected upon the gods who died because of the Golden Dragon King in the river of time. Now, he was going to take a trip into the river of time.
With a single step, Lin Feng arrived at the bank of a vast and boundless river.
Here, time was like a winding, giant dragon, shuttling through every corner of the universe, connecting the past, present, and future.
The river was incredibly wide, with no end in sight. The water was sometimes calm as a mirror, and at other times, it surged violently.
On both banks of the river, the illusory and the real intertwined, the past and the future merged. Countless lights and shadows flickered within, displaying the cycle of life and death of all things in the universe.
It existed neither in reality nor in illusion, nor in any known dimension.
Lin Feng stood by the river of time, trying to immerse his mind in it, to feel the information within. An indescribable sense of shock welled up in his heart.
He saw the origin of the universe, the birth and death of stars, and the rise and fall of countless living beings.
Everything, an immense amount of information, flooded into Lin Feng's mind in an instant like a tidal wave.
He opened his eyes and let out a light breath, then sat down by the river of time.
His gaze fell upon a point in time.
That was the moment he was born in the Douluo universe.
An ordinary baby, no different from other babies, born into an ordinary family. After encountering disaster and the death of his relatives, he was left alone and helpless, later taken in by the Spirit Hall orphanage.
There was nothing unusual to be seen in his experiences when he arrived in this world. There wasn't even a shadow of the Innate Pearl.
Looking further back for his own existence, there was only chaos.
Was it because of his origin, that he did not belong here, that he could not see it, or was there some other reason?
He continuously checked the node of his birth.
"Huh?"
Finally, he detected a ripple that did not conform to the flow of the river of time. That was the moment his soul arrived in the Douluo universe, the moment he was brought to this world by the Innate Pearl.
"The power of time... the power of space..."
Lin Feng said in a low voice, "Before the point in time when I arrived here, the Innate Pearl... it took me to another point in time. However, it does not exist in the present world, nor in this universe.
Innate Pearl, what is your origin?"
Lin Feng pondered. As the pearl that brought him through transmigration, it could be said to be the origin of everything. Although it had now been completely integrated into himself, leaving no trace, Lin Feng had never stopped wanting to explore its origin.
"However, you still left a trace. This point in time can be peeked into. After I have arranged everything, I will cross the river of time to trace your origin."
"God King Tang San also arrived at this time. Interesting."
Lin Feng once again turned his gaze to the river of time and began to carefully examine his life in this Douluo universe. From his growth in the Spirit Hall orphanage, to stepping onto the path of cultivation, to becoming a top expert on the Douluo Continent, to now standing at the absolute peak.
"Hmm?"
Scenes unfolded before Lin Feng's eyes. When he saw one particular scene, Lin Feng's brow furrowed slightly.
In the scene, the Imperial Luck Beast was suffering from a backlash due to her overuse of the Eye of Destiny. Her originally star-bright eyes were dim, and her small body trembled, seeming to endure indescribable pain.
Her little mouth was pouting.
"That human Lin Feng, you've made me suffer so much. Sob, sob, sob, Master doesn't love me anymore. She insisted I spy on some destiny trajectory. Now look, my eyes hurt, my whole body hurts, everything hurts.
Caring for the Imperial Luck Beast is everyone's responsibility, sob, sob.
You detestable fellow, I really want to eat you in one bite. How dare you abduct our Master!
Hmph, so what if you abduct her? If Master can leave, why can't I? But I have to stay here. What is this? This Luck Beast wants to go out and play too. Ah, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts."
Lin Feng couldn't help but be amused. He crossed the river of time and arrived at this point in time.
In Lin Feng's perception, directly influencing the present world would probably still be subject to many restrictions. Although he had transcended, he could not arbitrarily change established facts that had already occurred.
But Wang Qiu'er was different. She had the Eye of Destiny and carried the power of Destiny. Perhaps he could help her in a more subtle way.
Destiny, this special attribute.
Lin Feng appeared beside Wang Qiu'er. The small body was curled up into a ball, emitting a faint and chaotic aura.
He gently stretched out his hand, and a gentle and pure Chaos Power slowly enveloped the Imperial Luck Beast's Eye of Destiny, as warm and gentle as a spring breeze.
In an instant, the originally chaotic power of Destiny gradually became peaceful under the soothing of Lin Feng's Chaos Power. Wang Qiu'er's tightly furrowed brows also slowly relaxed. Lin Feng thought for a moment, then infused her Eye of Destiny with his True Qi wrapped in a portion of Chaos Power.
This fusion of True Qi and Chaos Power was like a clear spring, nourishing Wang Qiu'er's damaged Eye of Destiny.
After doing all this, Lin Feng pondered for a moment.
"The timeline converges here. This True Qi, mixed with Chaos Power, was sent by the me of this moment to the me of the past, with the help of the power of Destiny, through the hands of Wang Qiu'er?
Was it also because of this special True Qi mixed with Chaos Power that I gained new insights so quickly after my battle with the Rakshasa God back then, accelerating my own development of the spine at that time...
Destiny is truly a very special attribute, to be able to let me influence the reality of this point in time by relying on it.
Creation, causality, reincarnation... there are still so many mysteries that I need to understand and comprehend." Lin Feng lamented silently in his heart. He glanced at the soundly sleeping Wang Qiu'er, gave a slight smile, and returned to the river of time in the present world.
He opened his right palm, and a ball of warm golden light was slowly circulating in it.
"Destiny, is it? It's not too much to collect a little interest, ha."
Lin Feng smiled, absorbed this ball of Destiny power into his body, sent it to his dantian, and left it to be comprehended in detail later.
This was not the Destiny power of the Imperial Luck Beast, but rather a sliver of Lin Feng's own comprehension and condensation of the law of Destiny, achieved through his state of transcendence.
"It's time to go."
Lin Feng once again looked around this vast and boundless river of time.
"I have reached the end of the path of cultivation in this universe, but this does not mean my exploration stops here."
"No matter what lies ahead, I will forge onward." Lin Feng whispered to himself. His figure began to gradually blur, transforming into a stream of light and disappearing from this place. When he reappeared, he was already in Spirit City.
—
Divine Realm, at the highest point of the Divine Realm's core.
Majestic energy was continuously gathering above, forming patches of splendid brilliance that illuminated the entire Divine Realm. The Dragon God's might contained within this energy enveloped the entire Divine Realm.
Many God Officers and Third-Class Gods could not even bear it and chose a deserted place to silently... kneel and worship.
Gu Yuena slowly raised her hands. The gathered majestic energy seemed to have felt her call and began to revolve around her body, forming brilliant energy tornados.
These tornados continuously intertwined and merged, finally transforming into a giant seven-colored dragon that coiled above Gu Yuena's head.
"In my name, I accept the seat of the Dragon God. May the glory of the Dragon Clan shine eternally throughout the universe." Gu Yuena chanted in a low voice.
As Gu Yuena's words fell, the seven-colored giant dragon seemed to have heard a command. It let out a heaven-shaking dragon's roar, then transformed into a brilliant light and abruptly merged into Gu Yuena's body.
The core of the Divine Realm also bloomed with boundless radiance at this moment. The key to the Divine Realm's core, without being summoned, flew out from the hands of the God of Kindness and merged into Gu Yuena's body.
"From this moment on, the Divine Realm enters the Dragon God Era."
