Chapter 1427: Second Trial

"Now, begin your second trial, A-Yang. You have never disappointed us, and you have reached an unprecedented level of power. However, the Great World is intricate and complex, holding countless secrets. Only those who truly master the Reincarnation Mirror can grasp the true lifeline of reincarnation in the Great World and control more secrets.

When you left the Great World era, the age of divine turmoil was already about to descend; its signs had already appeared. Therefore, by my judgment, when you return, many descendants of gods should have risen to prominence.

They will seize all the resources of the Great World, like a plague. That era will require a true leader to emerge, save countless beings from suffering, quell the crisis of the chaotic divine age, and unify the entire God Realm.

Furthermore, the laws of space-time are the two most crucial inheritances among divine-level laws. More importantly, once you master the complete laws of space-time, you will be able to create your own rule-based barriers, which will be quite powerful tools for future combat."

Hearing Yun Wangji's words, Xu Yang became even more determined to master the complete laws of space-time as quickly as possible.

"Don't worry, Sword Immortal. It won't be long before I appear before you in a completely new form."

After the Sword Immortal clearly explained his mission, he vanished once more. It was from this moment that Xu Yang's second phase of trials finally began.

He did not immediately enter a meditative state. Instead, he first approached Xiao Hua and the other two, explaining his understanding of the Eternal Sword Dao and his general journey of enlightenment, helping them achieve a certain level of improvement as well.

"Haha, boss is boss! You never forget to share your growth insights with us brothers. Listening to you, I feel like I've had a sudden enlightenment and have found the path for my next improvement."

Xu Yang patted Long Kun's shoulder encouragingly. "Good brother, you don't need to rush to improve your strength right now. The most important thing is to recover your lost memories as soon as possible. Think about what you truly experienced at the end of the barren lands."

Hearing these words, Long Kun showed a bewildered expression and helplessly spread his hands.

"Alright, who made you the boss? What you say goes."

Saying this, Long Kun reluctantly sat cross-legged on the ground and quickly entered a meditative state, beginning to search for his lost memories according to Xu Yang's pointers. Xiao Hua and Ling Yao, not needing to resolve such an issue, both followed Xu Yang's guidance to purposefully elevate their spiritual realms, hoping to break free from the constraints of the laws of space-time soon.

After all, for a divine-level powerhouse, the most crucial ability is the mastery and control of the laws of power. Only by gaining the ability to disregard the two core laws of space-time can one acquire the capital to dominate an area in an era where gods stand side by side.

Otherwise, a few top-tier divine race powerhouses could easily threaten the safety of cultivators like Xiao Hua and Ling Yao. In such a scenario, how could they possibly follow Xu Yang's footsteps and contend with the gods?

Watching his three companions begin to strive in their respective cultivation, Xu Yang finally felt at ease. He directly separated his soul essence from his body, allowing his complete soul form to wander through the void.

Xu Yang's fundamental purpose in doing this was to perceive the most complete form of the void laws with his mind.

From the moment he first grasped the partial laws of space-time, Xu Yang firmly believed that time and space were actually like the Yin and Yang poles of his Tai Chi totem: though utterly opposed, they were also utterly co-existent, complementing each other and interdependent. Neither could possibly break free from the influence and constraints of the other to exist independently.

Where there is time, there is space; where there is space, there is time. The absence of one means the non-existence of the other.

Consequently, Xu Yang suddenly conceived an extremely bold idea: to attempt to merge the Tai Chi Yin-Yang Dao he had created with the laws of time and space present in his mind.

If this bold concept could be realized, it would mean that each time Xu Yang reformed the Tai Chi Dao, he would simultaneously directly control the application of the laws of time and space.

The condensation of every Tai Chi totem could then be considered an independent space-time rule.

In that case, every Tai Chi totem Xu Yang unleashed would signify his personal creation of a primordial mini-world, existing eternally beyond the definition of space-time.

If Xu Yang willed it, any enemy locked by this power would be eternally imprisoned, forever unable to break free from the Tai Chi totem.

These two supremely opposing laws would be akin to directly placing shackles on their lives, allowing Xu Yang to instantly obliterate them at any time and place with a single thought.

It's important to remember that throughout his journey, Xu Yang had almost crushed every enemy he encountered using the Space-Time Treasure Box. If his Tai Chi totem could possess the complete attributes of space-time laws, who could possibly be his opponent in the future?

Considering this, Xu Yang allowed his soul essence to merge with the complete Tai Chi totem.

Then, using this power, he freely roamed the depths of the void, wildly absorbing various power essences from the void through the Tai Chi totem's inherent devouring ability, thereby capturing the most primitive void order.

During this process, the rules of time also slowly advanced according to the original definition provided by Xu Yang's spiritual power.

It wasn't until a certain point, when Xu Yang's Tai Chi totem had absorbed enough power to reach perfection, showing no remaining flaws, that Xu Yang finally realized his work on the complete order of space-time laws had concluded.

When he allowed his soul essence to return to his physical body once more, the world appearing before his eyes had undergone a complete transformation.

"So that's it. Wu Yuetian was created by the Reincarnation Mirror, a space that shouldn't inherently exist. This means it doesn't adhere to the laws of space-time. Yet, I, who now control the complete laws of space-time, can actually perceive the unique laws of this special space.

I will tentatively name it the Third Law. The so-called Third Law is a law that is not allowed to exist within the Great World's order of laws.

It is also a custom law created by the power of the Reincarnation Mirror. If, in the future, I can pass the Sword Immortal's trial and gain ownership of the Reincarnation Mirror, it will mean I am qualified to define the unique form of the Third Law according to my will.

I will become an absolute sovereign, truly capable of standing alongside the Creator Gods of the Great World!"

As he pondered these thoughts, Xu Yang became increasingly ethereal and translucent, for his current spiritual state and comprehensive strength were now beyond words to describe.

They had far surpassed the ultimate potential achievable by any other life form. As long as he manifested his soul essence in the form of a Tai Chi totem, even without his physical body, Xu Yang would still be capable of controlling everything within the Great World, becoming the true embodiment of divine will.
