Chapter 568: The Laws of Heaven and Earth
The changing of seasons is a law, and the cycle of life and death is a law.
For all living beings, laws are an invisible force. Although they cannot be seen or touched, they drive the operation of the order of heaven and earth, maintaining the movement of the sun, moon, yin, and yang.
The sun rising in the east and setting in the west is all driven by the power of laws in the dark. For cultivators like Zhang Chen, the laws of heaven and earth have transformed from ethereal and intangible things into complex chains of order visible to the naked eye, constantly flowing between heaven and earth.
In his primordial spirit's Dharma eyes, heaven and earth transformed into a vast and complex web of intertwined chains of order, like a huge ball of thread, with no discernible beginning or end, yet operating according to some unique and distinct pattern.
What shocked Zhang Chen the most was that the laws were dense and covered the entire world, maintaining the operation of the entire world, as if the entire world had transformed into a world of 'thread balls'.
However, among those intricate thread balls, some made Zhang Chen feel close, allowing him to sense traces of inexplicable information within the chains of lines, while others he could not understand at all, emitting a sense of rejection towards him. When Zhang Chen looked at them, the lines would disappear out of thin air, turning into a blank space, not giving Zhang Chen any chance to pry.
"Hmm? Why is this happening?" Zhang Chen saw that some lines would disappear out of thin air before his eyes, and then reappear when his gaze shifted away, a look of curiosity on his face.
"Could there be some changes in this?" Zhang Chen wondered, secretly deducing and comparing, looking at those laws of heaven and earth that would not 'hide'. The most striking were two strands, one presenting five colors, and the other presenting black and white. When Zhang Chen looked at these two strands, they fluctuated slightly, as if releasing some kind of frequency to Zhang Chen.
"That five-colored strand corresponds to the five elements of heaven and earth. That black and white strand corresponds to the yin-yang millstone and the reversal of yin and yang." Zhang Chen carefully sensed the fluctuations from the two strands, a look of contemplation in his eyes: "There is also a transparent strand!"
Zhang Chen looked at the almost transparent strand, which was also emitting waves of fluctuations at this time. The fluctuations transformed into a frequency, transmitting information from the dark to Zhang Chen. After a moment, Zhang Chen had an understanding in his heart: "This strand represents time!"
"And that pitch-black strand represents death..."
Zhang Chen's gaze swept across the strands in the void, a look of realization in his eyes: "I understand! Those strands that don't dodge correspond to the power of supernatural abilities on my body. That five-colored strand corresponds to the innate five elements, the gray-white strand corresponds to the yin-yang millstone and the reversal of yin and yang, the time strand represents the acceleration of time... and those that hide from my gaze, not wanting me to pry, are forces that I have never come into contact with."
At this moment, an unspeakable fatigue came from within Zhang Chen's primordial spirit, and his primordial spirit quickly returned to his physical body: "My primordial spirit watching the laws will consume my primordial spirit power. I have just entered the primordial spirit realm, and the time I can sense is only a hundred breaths. After a hundred breaths, my primordial spirit power will be exhausted, and my essence, qi, and spirit will be completely depleted."
"I can only comprehend the laws for a hundred breaths, what can I comprehend?" Zhang Chen cursed.
Too useless!
But Zhang Chen could understand. Observing the laws of heaven and earth, the information from the laws of heaven and earth fed back and poured into Zhang Chen's primordial spirit. What a huge amount of information that was!
It's like memorizing something by rote, the energy consumed is extraordinary.
"Your cultivation speed is too fast, you can actually comprehend the laws now." The Great自在Heavenly Demon appeared beside Zhang Chen, looking at Zhang Chen with a face full of shock.
"What's the use of being able to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth? I can only persist for a hundred breaths now, and once I exceed a hundred breaths, I will be exhausted." Zhang Chen rubbed his head tiredly.
Once he exceeded a hundred breaths, he would 'injure his spirit', so Zhang Chen would never dare to overload himself to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, lest his soul be blown apart and he would directly dissipate.
"You can cultivate auxiliary secret methods to extend the time to observe the laws of heaven and earth," said the Great自在Heavenly Demon.
"Cultivate auxiliary secret methods? Do you have this kind of secret method?" Zhang Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this.
The Great自在Heavenly Demon nodded: "I happen to have it!"
Zhang Chen's eyes were very bright, but he didn't speak, just stared at the Great自在Heavenly Demon with burning eyes.
The Great自在Heavenly Demon said: "This secret method is very unique, ordinary people can hardly cultivate it, but you have a great chance. If you want to cultivate this secret method, you need to have an innate object, and you happen to meet the most stringent conditions of this era."
"Stop talking nonsense, quickly pass on the secret method to me." Zhang Chen said unceremoniously.
The Great自在Heavenly Demon didn't talk nonsense either, and passed the secret method to Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen pondered the Great自在Heavenly Demon's secret method, and said thoughtfully: "The method of entrusting the primordial spirit? Natal magic weapon?"
"That's right! But this secret method is too harsh, you need to have an innate object, or an innate magic weapon, to be able to successfully cultivate it," said the Great自在Heavenly Demon.
"Once you cultivate this secret method, after the primordial spirit leaves the body, it will be entrusted to the natal object, which is equivalent to having a body. At that time, you can naturally exert incredible effects. But if you want to cultivate this method, you must have an innate object, because only an innate object can have an incredible effect with the primordial spirit." After Zhang Chen comprehended this method for a long time, he gradually analyzed the key.
"Yes! This method is very suitable for you. You have a lot of innate objects on your body, enough to cultivate this method," said the Great自在Heavenly Demon: "This supernatural power is the pre-requisite supernatural power for 'Law, Heaven, and Earth', you have benefited from it."
"Speaking of which, would you be so kind to pass on supernatural powers to me?" Zhang Chen turned his head to look at the Great自在Heavenly Demon, his eyes full of surprise.
"What kind of eyes are you giving me? You actually suspect me, your ancestor? Kindness is taken as a donkey's liver and lungs, you grandson is too inconsiderate!" The Great自在Heavenly Demon's voice was full of resentment.
Although the Great自在Heavenly Demon said so, Zhang Chen still felt that this old guy had no good intentions. With this old guy's temperament, he was the only one who could take advantage of others, how could others take advantage of him?
Seeing Zhang Chen cast a suspicious look at him, the Great自在Heavenly Demon shook his head, his figure flashed and disappeared directly, leaving only a sentence: "The supernatural power is given to you, you can cultivate it or not, if you don't cultivate it, then forget it!"
Watching the Great自在Heavenly Demon disappear, Zhang Chen fell into silence, and after a long time, he grinned. Of course, he wanted to cultivate this supernatural power. Now the Great自在Heavenly Demon was in his hands, and his soul-snatching chain had a firm grip on the Great自在Heavenly Demon. The Great自在Heavenly Demon couldn't escape his control, even if the other party had any conspiracies, he wouldn't be afraid.
"Once the primordial spirit leaves the body and has an object to entrust, the primordial spirit is equivalent to having a body, which can avoid many ambushes. Of course, I want to cultivate this kind of supernatural power." Zhang Chen tapped his knee with his finger. He would never give up any supernatural power that could make him stronger, but he needed to carefully consider the choice of entrusting object.
"The treasures on my body suitable for entrusting the primordial spirit include the Golden Jiao Scissors, the Yin-Yang Millstone, the Ascension Pool, the Buzhou Seal, the Fire Aversion Bead, the Sea Stabilizing Bead, the Wind Stabilizing Pill..." Zhang Chen's gaze fell on the Ascension Pool, and he saw the innate Jianmu in the Ascension Pool.
"To entrust the primordial spirit, you must choose a stable treasure." Zhang Chen's gaze fell on the Golden Jiao Scissors. Among all his magic weapons, the Golden Jiao Scissors had the strongest power, reaching the legendary level of innate supreme treasure. Once he used the Golden Jiao Scissors to entrust the primordial spirit, it would definitely increase the attack power of his primordial spirit.
The Yin-Yang Millstone was also good. This was an innate magic weapon embryo. Once he worked hard on it, it would also be a rare and powerful magic weapon.
As for the Buzhou Seal, it was his most peculiar treasure, with the effect of invulnerability to all laws and suppressing all evils. It was the most peculiar of all his magic weapons. If he could collect thirty-three copies of complete divine power in the future, it would have an incredible effect.
The remaining treasures such as the Fire Aversion Bead had too single effects, and Zhang Chen didn't like them.
"The Ascension Pool is also not good!" Zhang Chen's gaze swept over the Ascension Pool, excluding the Ascension Pool. The upper limit of the Ascension Pool was too low. Once he transformed into an immortal, the Ascension Pool would be useless to him.
"But this pill furnace has a mysterious origin, with innate qi flowing within it, as if it is an innate treasure. It would be good to entrust the primordial spirit to it." Zhang Chen also turned his gaze to the pill furnace, hesitating in his heart.
"If I were you, I would choose the Tongtian Jianmu." Just as Zhang Chen was thinking, hesitating, and hesitating in his heart, the Great自在Heavenly Demon spoke from the side, as if he had noticed Zhang Chen's thoughts.
"The function of the Tongtian Jianmu is too single, it can only transform innate vitality, and it does not have any offensive power. Using it to entrust the primordial spirit is too useless..." Zhang Chen paused in the middle of his words.
Hearing Zhang Chen's words, the Great自在Heavenly Demon said: "Boy, the Tongtian Jianmu is the only treasure that can grow with you! Moreover, the Tongtian Jianmu can take root in chaos. Even if the world is destroyed in the future, you can survive in chaos by virtue of the characteristics of the Tongtian Jianmu. The most important thing is that the Tongtian Jianmu is not as simple as you see it. Do you really understand the Tongtian Jianmu? You must know that the Tongtian Jianmu is a top-notch innate foundation. If you want to further improve your cultivation and reach the highest realm in the future, with your current foundation, it is impossible! If you want to reach the realm of transcending the world, you must have the foundation of an innate sacred."
The words of the Great自在Heavenly Demon made Zhang Chen's heart move. He remembered the characters in the novels of his previous life, Zhen Yuanzi and the Receiving Saint, who were all born with the foundation of innate grass and trees. Once they developed, they could reach the top of the world in the future.
The foundation determines the upper limit of the cultivator!
"If you want to truly transcend life and death and reach the realm of eternal immortality, how can you do it without an innate foundation?" The Great自在Heavenly Demon looked at Zhang Chen very solemnly: "Think about it yourself! The sapling of the Tongtian Jianmu has just grown, and now is an unprecedented good opportunity for you. Once you miss today, there will be no chance in the future."
