Humanity's Turning Point

“Starting from the laws, to put it simply!” Luo Feng began.

“From the moment one becomes an Undying, they begin to comprehend the most basic laws, such as the Law of Gold, the Law of Wind, and so on... To become a Universe Venerable, one then studies the Law of Time or the Law of Space...”

“In essence, the path of laws is a continuous ascent from the most minuscule point. The ultimate goal is to master all ten fundamental laws—Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Light, Time, and Space—and then integrate them all into a single ‘Chaos Law’.” As Luo Feng uttered these words, everyone present showed expressions of shock, even the Founder of Giant Axe stood up in astonishment.

Across from the Founder of Giant Axe’s main seat, a white-robed figure materialized out of thin air in the other main seat.

“You speak of the Chaos Law?” The white-robed man stared at Luo Feng, his eyes gleaming with an unprecedented light.

“Original Ancestor!” The Founder of Giant Axe exclaimed in surprise.

“Teacher.” Chaos, Darkness, and Ice Peak, the three of them, were both surprised and delighted, immediately bowing in respect. The other masters, such as Lord Peng Gong, Lord Qing Dong, Lord Xu Jin, Lord Long Xing, and Lord Huang Jian, were even more thrilled, all calling out, “Original Ancestor!”

Luo Feng also stared in astonishment at the white-robed man before him... Was this the legendary Original Ancestor?

The Original Ancestor appeared to be an ordinary man on the surface, yet it was a perfect inner restraint born from complete internal fulfillment, bringing only a spring-like comfort to those around him, utterly unlike any other powerful being.

“Luo Feng, you mentioned the Chaos Law?” The Original Ancestor pressed.

“Yes,” Luo Feng quickly replied, “Everything is born from the Chaos Law. The ultimate goal is to return to the origin, to comprehend the ultimate Chaos Law. However, if one truly comprehends the Chaos Law, their power would likely surpass even Duan Dong River.”

“The Chaos Law is the ultimate law!”

“Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Light, Time, and Space are the ten fundamental laws!” Luo Feng explained, “For example, the fusion of Gold and Space forms the Path of Gold-Space. The fusion of Wood and Space forms the Path of Wood-Space! This can create the Eight Paths of Beast Gods... and these Eight Paths of Beast Gods can also combine with each other.”

“Of course, the fusion of Gold and Time forms the Path of Gold-Time, and the fusion of Fire and Time forms the Path of Fire-Time...”

As Luo Feng spoke, Giant Axe couldn't help but interject, “Aren't the five categories of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth considered spatial? How can they completely fuse with Time?”

“Everything is possible,” Luo Feng chuckled, “Because everything originates from Chaos, anything is possible... even the combination of three laws, or four laws, or even five laws...”

Luo Feng shook his head, “Of course... it's like how basic raw materials on a mineral planet can be transformed into countless spaceships.”

“The ten fundamental laws can ultimately transform into the Chaos Law.”

“The profound mysteries, experiences, and techniques involved are incredibly deep and complex.” Luo Feng continued, “It's not about blindly fumbling around. Everyone in the ancient civilization knew... that the ten fundamental laws could eventually transform into the Chaos Law! Yet, even within the Duan Dong River lineage, which selects only the most exceptionally talented inheritors and provides countless guidance and training, those who could truly master the Chaos Law were few and far between.”

Luo Feng had reviewed the core inheritance. Although he didn't know the cultivation methods or stages beyond the ‘True God’ level, some occasional remarks within it allowed him to infer certain information. For instance, the core inheritance memory stone once stated that those within the Duan Dong River lineage who mastered the Chaos Law were few and far between. What did this imply? First, there was more than one! Second, the strongest third-generation ancestor of the Duan Dong River lineage stood at the pinnacle of the ancient civilization and was the most powerful in their lineage. Since there was more than one, he clearly surpassed the ‘mastery of Chaos Law’ level.

Luo Feng only spoke about the Chaos Law for a moment, as he knew very little about it himself, only its limits from Undying to Universe Supreme Master (True God). Immediately after, Luo Feng delved into a deeper analysis of the path of laws... Everyone present, including Giant Axe, listened with extreme attentiveness.

The white-robed Original Ancestor merely observed everything, drawn only by the information regarding the ‘Chaos Law.’ Having been suppressed for endless ages, if he were to escape, he would be fully confident in breaking through reincarnation. Since he dared to claim absolute certainty, he had naturally already broken through the ‘True God stage’ and reached another level, one that transcended the Universe Supreme Masters.

Therefore, what Luo Feng spoke of... to him, it was merely novel and slightly moving. The true significant help was merely what was said before—that the ultimate goal is to master the Chaos Law. It showed the Original Ancestor, who had long been lost on how to proceed, the path to advance towards the Chaos Law!

The Original Ancestor gazed at the scene before him. Luo Feng, clad in white robes, was lecturing. The other Universe Masters were listening intently. This scene stirred something within the Original Ancestor: “Long, long ago, I too lectured, and the scene seemed much the same.”

“I established humanity among the peak races, bringing about the first great turning point in humanity's destiny.”

“And this Luo Feng, bringing with him the wisdom of an entire ancient civilization, will bring about the second great turning point for our human race! Moreover, this transformation will be even more profound than the last,” the Original Ancestor mused silently. He understood—as Luo Feng's teachings spread, humanity would gradually transform. The number of Universe Venerables would continuously increase, Universe Masters would become more numerous, and the number of Universe Supreme Masters would also steadily rise. By the end of this reincarnation era, the human race would likely be the greatest power in the entire Universe Ocean! Perhaps even stronger than the two great Holy Lands!

“Humanity...”

“Destiny...”

“Turning point...”

The Original Ancestor listened in silence. Though he didn't know if he would escape his suppression alive, he could still foresee how powerful the human race would become after endless ages. Luo Feng's lecture this time... would have an incredibly profound impact.

Luo Feng first provided a concise overview in the simplest language, then began to elaborate on major guiding theories. Only after that did he meticulously explain the various difficulties of each theory, how to overcome them, and so on... From Universe Master to Universe Supreme Master. Luo Feng spent over three months just on theoretical guidance before concluding. The path starting from laws consumed almost all the time. The path starting from divine power... only took half a day. This was because the path starting from divine power was too difficult, and practitioners were extremely rare in the ancient civilization. Naturally, there was less information about it, and thus less time was spent explaining it.

“These are all theoretical and ideological guidelines,” Luo Feng chuckled, “That's why I finished so quickly! When I return from the Universe Boat, I will bring back detailed inheritance secret techniques, such as various combat methods, for everyone. However, each secret technique is incredibly vast; simply narrating them or displaying them through memory is too slow.” One must remember, it took Luo Feng a long time to infuse a vast amount of memories into his mind using the memory stones. To explain a vast and powerful secret technique, even tens of thousands of epochs wouldn't be enough!

“Similar to the God-Eye Clan's combined attack methods?”

“Some special secret techniques?”

“Combat secret techniques of Universe Supreme Masters?” Everyone grew expectant.

Luo Feng laughed heartily, “Universe Supreme Masters? From the Undying level to the limits of Universe Supreme Masters, these complete secret techniques, various combat secret techniques. Even thousands upon thousands of them... are nothing, there are plenty more.” Indeed, the countless secret manuals were truly immense. During the initial selection process for basic inheritances, Luo Feng had already reviewed 360 blade secret manuals. Now that he was the master of the inheritance space... among the hundreds of millions of inheritance stones, some single stones contained thousands of different secret techniques. The collection of the Duan Dong River lineage was simply too vast.

“Of course, these numerous secret techniques are merely for your reference, to let you understand the methods of Universe Supreme Masters,” Luo Feng said, “By observing many secret techniques, you might gain some insights. Theoretical guidance, secret technique references... the rest is up to each of you. After all, this is a major threshold! The difficulty is far greater than becoming a Universe Venerable or a Universe Master... external assistance is secondary; everything depends on the individual.” Everyone, including the Chaos City Lord, was deep in thought. These three months had a profound impact on them. Many now knew how to strive, and as for success, that depended on the individual. After all, understanding and being able to do are two different things.

Inside the Tomb Mausoleum Boat, within the cultivation space of the inheritance space, in the Flame Ice Region of the Universe Boat, Luo Feng let out a sigh of relief. “Finally, it's over.” Luo Feng shook his head helplessly, “I didn't expect the Founder of Giant Axe to be so persistent. Explaining how to become a Universe Supreme Master to my teachers only took a little over three months. But explaining... the cultivation to the limits of a Universe Supreme Master to Giant Axe took twelve years.” When lecturing to the Chaos City Lord, the Lord of Darkness, and others, Luo Feng was filled with passion and anticipation for the future of the human race. But lecturing to Giant Axe, while exciting at first, eventually became exhausting.

“Time to continue my research.” Luo Feng immediately immersed himself in comprehension. The foundation of an entire ancient civilization he had received—how vast was it? Though all in his memory, the research was indeed lengthy, forcing Luo Feng to make choices. His energy was primarily focused on close-combat blade techniques and psychic weapons.

In the 9106th year of Luo Feng becoming an inheritor, he opened his eyes. “The research has reached a temporary conclusion. Though I know an immense amount, knowing more won't increase my strength! I still need to cultivate.”

“Understanding is useless!”

“Being able to do it is what matters!”

He knew about the three core ultimate techniques of the Duan Dong River lineage—'Annihilation,' 'Eastern Splendor,' and 'Undying River'—but hadn't learned them yet. And there were the long-term research plans he had made for himself, including a path for blade techniques and psychic weapons... his own path was set, but he hadn't taken a single step on it yet.

“'Annihilation' is the most heaven-defying combat ultimate technique, capable of instantly unleashing incredible power. With my current blade techniques, which are at the initial Universe Supreme Master level, even with weaker divine power, I'd be considered top-tier Fifth Stage. Once I use 'Annihilation,' the ultimate technique created by the third-generation ancestor... tsk tsk, the cost of this move is too great, and the divine body consumption is simply exaggerated.”

“'Eastern Splendor' is also quite important to me. As for 'Undying River,' there's no rush. I have clones now, so there's no need to cultivate 'Undying River.' Only when my many clones merge into one and I become a Universe Supreme Master... when there's only one true body, will I need to cultivate 'Undying River.'” Luo Feng temporarily set aside 'Undying River' and began cultivating 'Annihilation' and 'Eastern Splendor' first.
