Creating Heavenly Laws

“I just want to give it a try,”

Lin Yuan said again.

The improvement of the Tai Chi Primordial Spirit’s internal universe was so massive, even he couldn’t quite gauge its limits.

One thing was clear—it had definitely surpassed the internal universe of his true body.

He wanted to know: just how powerful had this universe become?

Finding a proper opponent for comparison? With his current internal universe, even ordinary peak Chaos Venerables probably wouldn’t last a breath.

“If Master wants to try again, then let’s do it.”

The red-clothed girl didn’t object. Strictly speaking, Lin Yuan was her master—whatever he decided, she had to follow.

“Please watch, Master.”

With a flip of her hand, the several-meter-wide chunk of Immortal Essence Gold appeared once again.

“You may begin, Master.”

She looked at him expectantly.

“Not in this internal universe,”

Lin Yuan said. “We’ll do it in my Primordial Spirit’s internal universe.”

“Eh?”

The red-clothed girl blinked in surprise.

As the spirit of the Jade Gourd created by a thirteenth-rank temporal lifeform, she knew Lin Yuan had cultivated two Primordial Spirits.

But those were clearly far weaker than his true body. Their internal universes were weaker too.

If he tried using a Primordial Spirit’s universe to test Immortal Essence Gold, she figured he might not even leave a ten-centimeter mark.

“Alright.”

Though puzzled, she didn’t question him. Internally, she muttered to herself,

Is Master trying to see how weak his Primordial Spirit’s universe is?

Whoosh!

In the next moment—

Lin Yuan took her and the Immortal Essence Gold into the Tai Chi Primordial Spirit’s internal universe.

“…What is this place?”

She hadn’t thought much at first. But very soon, she realized something was off.

The internal universe of the Primordial Spirit was unbelievably stable. The pressure she felt here far exceeded that of Lin Yuan’s true body’s universe. 𝖗áƝỖꞖËṩ

“It hasn’t even completed the second layer of

Infinite Void

…”

She quickly checked. If the second layer had been completed, she’d be able to tell—it changed the universe’s microstructure entirely.

“I’m starting.”

Lin Yuan looked at the floating Immortal Essence Gold in front of him and began channeling the power of his universe to suppress it.

Rumble—

Infinite cosmic origin surged. In the center of the universe, the ever-burning Sunborn star grew even hotter, unleashing a terrifying aura.

After fusing with the Sunborn Core, the Tai Chi universe used it as its central nucleus—though its foundation was still rooted in Yin, Yang, and Tai Chi.

Now, with the universe running at full power, it was essentially activating

Sunborn Genesis

without any burden.

And its might went beyond that—like a perfected fusion of the Tai Chi universe and

Sunborn Genesis

.

Buzz, buzz, buzz—!

Every ounce of power from the Tai Chi universe pressed down on the Immortal Essence Gold.

In an instant—

The metal visibly twisted and deformed. Deep gouges tore across its surface and burrowed inward, forming craters.

Each crater was over a meter deep—the deepest approached two meters.

The entire piece of Immortal Essence Gold was battered and pitted, looking rather miserable.

“So hard…”

Lin Yuan couldn’t help but marvel.

He still didn’t know exactly how powerful the Tai Chi Primordial Spirit’s internal universe was.

But just now, with its full might bearing down, even dozens—hundreds—of peak Chaos Venerables would have been utterly annihilated.

And yet this Immortal Essence Gold?

All it suffered were some surface dents?

“The deepest mark is nearly two meters.”

Lin Yuan glanced at the metal, then turned to the red-clothed girl. “So, how strong would you say this universe is?”

“…”

The red-clothed girl was silent.

The moment she entered this universe, she had sensed something was off—especially when Lin Yuan activated it fully and unleashed that overwhelming force.

And then the Immortal Essence Gold had rapidly twisted under the pressure…

“Master, how is your Primordial Spirit’s internal universe this strong?”

She took a deep breath, staring at him in disbelief.

If she hadn’t confirmed this universe bore Lin Yuan’s aura and imprint, she might’ve suspected it belonged to someone else entirely.

This was insane.

Absolutely outrageous.

“How is this possible? This universe hasn’t even completed the second layer of

Infinite Void

. It’s still on the first—how can it be this strong?”

She was utterly baffled. What she was witnessing defied all reason.

“I made a few improvements,” Lin Yuan said calmly. He didn’t mention

Sunborn Genesis

.

It touched on another dimensional space.

In fact, he had deliberately concealed the central Sunborn star from her, and while unleashing his universe’s full power, he had suppressed its radiance.

This was his domain. So long as he didn’t want it revealed, even the red-clothed girl couldn’t detect much.

Previously, she’d been able to sense his cultivation progress in

Infinite Void

only because he had shown it to her.

“Improvements?”

She was shocked. An internal universe forged through

Infinite Void

was already perfected on the micro level. How could it be improved?

If not for the staggering power she’d just witnessed, she wouldn’t have believed it.

“Yes.”

Lin Yuan nodded. “So what level is this universe at now?”

He looked at her expectantly.

She had said before: leaving a half-meter mark on Immortal Essence Gold meant nearing completion of

Infinite Void

’s second layer.

At that point, his internal universe would be the strongest possible below perfected Chaos level.

But now?

He hadn’t just left a half-meter mark—

His deepest gouge was almost two meters.

“Master… this internal universe should now be comparable to a perfected Chaos-level being.”

She finally spoke.

Perfected Chaos—meaning the realm of the Chaos Great Saint.

In other words, Lin Yuan’s Tai Chi Primordial Spirit’s universe was now equal to that of a Chaos Great Saint.

“My Primordial Spirit’s universe was originally weaker than my true body’s… so if I apply these improvements to my true body’s universe…”

He trailed off in thought.

Then his true body’s internal cosmos might surpass even that of a standard Great Saint.

Of course, having a stronger internal universe didn’t automatically mean greater combat power.

A Great Saint’s strength came from many sources—internal cosmos was just one.

But regardless, Lin Yuan could now challenge a Great Saint to a few exchanges.

Challenge—not equal, but at least stand his ground for a bit.

That was no small feat.

The difference between a Great Saint and a normal Chaos Venerable was massive. Even a casual strike from a Great Saint could severely injure a Chaos Venerable.

For Lin Yuan to trade blows with one?

It meant he was unrivaled at the Chaos Venerable level.

And this was only the beginning—he had many methods not yet fully cultivated.

Infinite Void

’s second layer, for example, remained incomplete.

Once he achieved peak form in all areas, he’d be able to truly battle a Great Saint head-on.

To stand firm against a Great Saint with just a Dominance-stage body—

That was almost unheard of.

Even in the Source World, core royals with the most potent Sunborn bloodlines could only challenge a Heavenly Sovereign after becoming a Great Sovereign.

That was the peak: a thirteen-rank bloodline, paired with a thirteen-rank legacy, creating the strongest possible Great Sovereign.

As for a Dominance-stage cultivator challenging a Heavenly Sovereign? Unless possessed by a thirteen-rank being or backed by some external force—impossible.

The same held true in the Chaos Void.

Even with

Infinite Void

, a Dominance-stage cultivator could at most match up to a Chaos Venerable.

Even if they gathered several thirteen-rank legacies for body, soul, and more…

They might manage to fight a peak Chaos Venerable—but a Great Saint? Only after entering the Chaos Realm.

In essence, they were no different from the Source World’s core royals.

But Lin Yuan?

Through an absurd level of accumulation, he had become a complete outlier.

“Master… at this rate, you may truly reach the level of my former master.”

The red-clothed girl’s voice turned faintly emotional.

The founder of

Infinite Void

had once left behind thirteen-rank legacies for body, foundation, and soul—but it was never intended to create another thirteenth-rank being.

Such beings cannot be trained into existence.

In truth, thirteenth-rank lifeforms cannot be “cultivated.”

Yet now, Lin Yuan gave her the illusion that he might just reach that level someday.

“That’s still too far away.”

Lin Yuan shook his head. The more he cultivated, the more he realized how unfathomable the thirteenth rank truly was.

Even if everything went perfectly and he reached perfected Chaos—how would he confront the trial of time loops?

With the Tai Chi Primordial Spirit’s internal universe confirmed—

Lin Yuan resumed experimenting on his two Primordial Spirits. As for his true body? No rush.

Only once the fusion of the Sunborn Core was fully stable in both Primordial Spirits would he consider applying it to the true body.

In the Source World

The war between Qingfen Domain and Zimeng Domain continued.

At the Frontline

After the usual exchange between Lin Yuan and Great Sovereign Changfeng, both sides retreated as usual.

“Hm?”

Lin Yuan looked toward the core frontlines. He saw more than ten peak Great Sovereigns locked in chaotic battle, their Chaos-derived paths colliding, warping and shattering spacetime.

“They’re going all out now.”

He thought to himself.

In a war spanning dozens of domains, regular or even seasoned Great Sovereigns might still hold back.

But peak Great Sovereigns?

If they didn’t want to fight, they wouldn’t show up at all. If they came, it meant the royal kings had offered them promises they couldn’t refuse.

Which meant they might very well fight with true intent.

Every peak Great Sovereign wanted to win this war—

Only then would those royal promises come true.

If they lost? Sure, they might still get a minimum reward—but it’d pale in comparison to victory.

Time passed slowly.

In a flash, five hundred years went by.
