Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 246 The Second Chaos Stele, the Ten Fundamental Laws Acknowledged!
Initial universe, Chaos City.

"Senior brother, I'll choose the second Chaos Stele."

Qin Ming walked into the city lord's mansion with ease and bowed slightly to Venerable Kandri.

"Okay, go ahead! There's not much of a person there right now."

Kandri looked at Qin Ming with a smile. The fact that Qin Ming's third avatar was the World Tree was known to the senior brothers of the Dark Lineage.

Although Senior Brother Bai Feng ultimately succeeded in obtaining the World Tree branch and leaves, the other senior brothers also contributed their efforts.

Immediately, Qin Ming walked towards the corridor not far away without ceremony and began to select from the 52 Chaos Steles.

I looked through them one by one, including the "Mother Ancestor Chaos Stele," the "Dragon's Chaos Stele," and the "Wind Shadow Chaos Stele."

Over the course of more than 100 years, he has successfully comprehended the sixth diagram of the "Dark Chaos Monument" and has begun to comprehend the seventh diagram.

This means that Qin Ming has completely reached the King-level in his understanding of the laws of space and is now moving towards the complete understanding of the laws of space.

If one can fully comprehend the seventh picture.

That was a cosmic sage's understanding of the laws!

With this high vantage point, looking at the other Chaos Monuments naturally brings different insights.

Moreover, Qin Ming did not go to see the World Tree clone immediately after it was created, but instead spent another year recuperating.

a year.

With his exceptional talent in the laws of the World Tree and the River of Souls, Qin Ming's understanding of the laws of time is already quite profound.

"The Wind Shadow Chaos Stele begins with wind and time, and the laws of time will be gradually introduced later..."

The Chaos Monument of Time and Space uses the laws of time as its starting point…

After quickly reviewing all the Chaos Steles, Qin Ming made a decision.

"Indeed, the Cosmic Chaos Stele is the most suitable!"

Actually, Qin Mingxin already had a general idea before looking at the Chaos Stele, and looking at it again was just to confirm it.

He has already achieved great success in the laws of space, and the Chaos Monument he wants to choose is of the time type, and he must also start with the laws of time.

Therefore, there aren't actually many options.

After double-checking, the only suitable one is the Cosmic Chaos Monument.

Universe, universe, what is the universe?
The four directions and the top and bottom are 'Yu', and the past and present are 'Zhou'. 'Yu' represents space, and 'Zhou' represents time.

The Cosmic Chaos Monument is a combination of the two fundamental laws of 'space' and 'time'.

Cultivating the two superior laws is extremely difficult; comprehending even one is incredibly challenging, let alone comprehending both.

Therefore, the Cosmic Chaos Monument is the most difficult of the 52 Chaos Monuments.

Among the geniuses of all time, very few were chosen.

And the vast majority of people who take this path will eventually regret their choice.

Take Berlan, for example.

Bolan has an exceptionally high talent for the laws of space; his understanding of the laws of stellar time is comparable to that of a realm lord.

Without any special abilities, Berlan's talent in spatial laws is almost at the limit of human potential.

If Bolan had followed the Nine Universes Chaos Stele, his achievements would undoubtedly have been even greater.

Unfortunately, he chose the Cosmic Chaos Monument.

Clearly, his talent in the laws of time is quite average, and even though he chose the laws of wind as a springboard, it is still very difficult for him.

Of course, if one truly succeeds in cultivating this skill, then their future achievements will be limitless.

Because anyone who can cultivate the two great laws of time and space to an extremely high level at the realm master stage, such as reaching the realm of law recognition.

Once one breaks through to immortality, the problem of interference from laws essentially disappears.

If one can become a cosmic sage, the road ahead will be much easier.

Furthermore, the upper limit of the cosmic chaos monument is also very high.

There are 52 Chaos Monuments, and some of the weaker ones have only 21 floors of the Sky Bridge!
The Cosmic Chaos Stele is second only to the Giant Axe Chaos Stele, and has a total of 30 layers.

As for the cultivation methods of the "Cosmic Chaos Stele", there are also three types.

The first type is based primarily on time and secondarily on space.

The second approach prioritizes space and uses time as a secondary factor.

The third method involves combining time and space in cultivation.

Both the first and second methods have their own focus, so they are easier to cultivate.

However, the third type requires both time and space to develop simultaneously, and the rate of progress is quite similar.

Therefore, the third method, if successful, is also the most powerful.

For Qin Ming, if he were to follow the "Cosmic Chaos Monument," he would naturally choose the second path, which prioritizes space and uses time as a secondary element.

After all, he had already reached the seventh level of the Dark Chaos Monument in terms of spatial laws.

"The Cosmic Chaos Monument? Hmm, that does suit you quite well."

Venerable Kander nodded slightly when he saw that Qin Ming had confirmed the location of the second Chaos Stele.

The Cosmic Chaos Monument, in a sense, is meant to lay the foundation for the Lord of the Universe at the Realm Lord level.

However, very few people are able to go far on this path.

"Well, during this time in Chaos City, I can focus more on this and comprehend the 108 essences of time. Reaching the recognition of the laws of time shouldn't be too difficult."

Qin Ming grinned.

With the World Tree's talent for controlling space and time, and the blessing of the River of Souls, his speed of comprehending the laws is at least a million times faster than that of the genius world lords of the same period!
It won't be too difficult?

Even Venerable Kandri's kind face twitched slightly.

Perhaps only a genius like Qin Ming would dare to say such a thing. With three top-tier special life clones, Qin Ming's talent is far superior to that of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master.

Although he also has clones, he can even create 52 clones, and each clone possesses 60% of the original's combat power.

However, this special secret method does not provide any benefit to the understanding of the laws.

"Go and comprehend the Chaos Monument of the Universe; there's no one inside right now."

Candri didn't want to say too much to Qin Ming.

That's really a blow.

"it is good!"

Qin Ming walked with a grin to the bronze gate that represented the Chaos Monument of the Universe and went inside.

Like the Dark Chaos Monument.

The cultivation chamber was filled with chaotic air currents, making it impossible to see inside.

Upon closer inspection, one can see a massive stone tablet surrounded by chaotic energy.

This stone tablet is 100 meters high and nearly 100 meters wide, with nine pictures on it. On the edge of the Chaos Tablet, there is also the universal language of the universe – Universe.

Upon closer inspection, Qin Ming noticed that, unlike the Dark Chaos Monument, there were three layers of 108 dark planets in front of it.

The illustration on the Cosmic Chaos Monument depicts a meteor shower.

And their number is twice that of the Dark Chaos Monument.

Clearly, the first three levels are an analysis of the 108 essential aspects of the laws of time and space.

The fourth and subsequent images depict a progression from galaxies to galaxies, representing a gradual and cyclical ascent of galaxies, a combination of the mysteries of the laws of time and space.

Starting from the seventh image, the two begin to resemble each other.

The ninth picture, in particular, is a strange dot.

It's as if everything has returned to one.

"interesting!"

Qin Ming's eyes turned to the first picture, to the shooting star that represented the basic mystery of the laws of time, and he quickly began to comprehend it.

Within the Netherworld, the World Tree sways.

Controlling the realm of space and time naturally opens up, accelerating the talent of the River of Souls.

Soon, Qin Ming became completely immersed in it.

...As time passed, while Qin Ming was immersed in cultivation, various changes were taking place in the outside world.

For example, Luo Feng!
Guided by Qin Ming, Luo Feng also became a disciple of the Lord of Darkness, and his strength increased at an astonishing rate.

After Qin Ming broke through to the Domain Lord level a century later, Luo Feng also broke through directly.

Following in Qin Ming's footsteps, he became the second genius among their group to become a domain lord and returned to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

And he obtained his third avatar—the Nine Nether Sea!
Unlike Qin Ming, after weighing the pros and cons, he accepted the Dark Lord's suggestion and successfully conceived the child.

After that, he settled down on Earth, just like Qin Ming had done before.

Unlike Qin Ming.

Luo Feng is not single; his wife and children are both high-ranking officials in China. Since they finally have the opportunity to reunite, he naturally won't let it pass.

While strolling around Earth for decades, accompanying Xu Xin, they unexpectedly discovered a strange black metal plate...

The Nine Tribulations Manual, which Qin Ming had searched for with great effort but could not find, was easily found by Luo Feng.

It's like the inevitable convergence of a timeline.

The Nine Tribulations Manual was indeed one of the most important opportunities for Luo Feng.

If the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual hadn't broken the limits of the original universe, even the Nine Nether Sea clone wouldn't have been nearly as powerful as it was in the original timeline.

In the Nine Netherworld, there are 108 princes!
With too many beings, their life level naturally wouldn't be too high. In its initial state, the Nine Nether Sea only had a life level 300 times higher.

It’s a bit funny to say.

When Qin Ming was carrying out the domain lord mission, he offended quite a few people.

There are even two Universe Venerables!
One of them was the Burning Heaven Venerable from the Giant Axe Arena.

His disciple, the Blood Wolf King, is still the main soul of the Myriad Souls Banner, enabling it to successfully advance to the sixth rank.

He naturally hated Qin Ming intensely.

However, Qin Ming had a teacher who was the Lord of the Universe, and the extremely formidable Lord of Youhou, so Venerable Burning Heaven naturally dared not offend him.

But Luo Feng was not afraid!
Even the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom behind Luo Feng was only at the same level as him.

Therefore, the hidden difficulties and targeting naturally fell on Luo Feng.

As for the final result...

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom, carrying a supreme treasure, charged straight at the enemy. From then on, Venerable Burning Heaven announced his seclusion and dared not make any further moves.

After this battle, the higher-ups of the human race made a determination.

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom already possesses the combat power of a cosmic overlord!

From then on, no one dared to provoke Luo Feng anymore. After completing the highest cosmic mission, Luo Feng, like Qin Ming, chose to go to Chaos City for secluded cultivation.

After all, in the next phase, he will also be going to the battlefield outside the region for training!
In addition, it is worth mentioning that...

Hong and Lei Shen, who had been cultivating in seclusion in the Qianwu Secret Realm for three hundred years, eventually became geniuses of the virtual universe company's apocalyptic secret realm through the channels of the Qianwu Secret Realm!

A cosmic kingdom like the Qianwu Secret Realm is actually qualified to recommend geniuses to the Virtual Universe Company.

However, those who enter through the recommendation method can only start from the lower-level post-apocalyptic secret realms.

The virtual universe company recruits geniuses in more ways than just the genius battle. For example, Xu Xin from the original timeline successfully entered the apocalyptic secret realm through business means.

In the blink of an eye, another 300 years have passed.

This was the first time Qin Ming had ever secluded himself for such a long time.

of course……

Over the course of 300 years, Qin Ming has reaped numerous rewards.

Whether it's the human incarnation, the mountain giant, the river of souls, or the World Tree avatar, they have all grown to the ninth level of the Realm Lord!

Sitting cross-legged on the rooftop of Chaos City, Qin Ming opened his eyes.

Rumbling--

He sat cross-legged on the rooftop, enveloped by an incomparably powerful aura of law, with silver-white secret patterns flowing around him, radiating light.

The intense fluctuations of the fundamental laws attracted the attention of many people around.

"The origin of all laws has descended; it is the fundamental law of time!"

Not far from Qin Ming, an immortal powerhouse stared at Qin Ming in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.

"How can this be?"

"In just a few hundred years? He first gained recognition from the laws of space, and then the laws of metal, wood, water, fire, and so on all gained recognition from the origin."

Then the laws of wind, thunder, and light were recognized, and now even the law of time is being recognized!

As an immortal powerhouse, he had been in seclusion in Chaos City for tens of thousands of years.

But I've never suffered such a blow before!

Is the difference between people really that great?
"All ten laws have been acknowledged! That's terrifying!"

Another immortal king who witnessed all of this also gasped in shock.

Chaos City is teeming with powerful individuals, and it is not uncommon for a cultivator to gain recognition from the fundamental laws, resulting in special phenomena such as the descent of the 'fundamental laws'.

The powerful cultivators who practice here are already used to it.

But the recognition of the fundamental law appears repeatedly in one person!
Anyone would be drawn to it.

Even the cosmic venerables who were in seclusion in Chaos City turned their attention to this place.

"The strongest genius of countless eras! He truly deserves the title. I wonder what level he will reach after he grows up."

Inside the city lord's mansion, Venerable Guiyi couldn't help but admire.

"It's a pity that I wasn't accepted as a disciple by my teacher."

As the second disciple of the Lord of Chaos City, and also the disciple who has followed the Lord of Chaos City the longest, he spends most of his time in Chaos City.

Unbeknownst to Venerable Guiyi, a gaze was directed at him from within the City Lord's Mansion as he spoke those words.

Anger surged in his eyes.

……

"Boom~~~"

The surrounding space trembled slightly.

A drop of silvery-white water appeared out of thin air above Qin Ming's head and then fell directly down.

Tick ​​tock!

The silvery-white water droplets fell directly onto Qin Mingfeng's head, penetrating into his 'original core'.

A mark slowly appeared on Qin Ming's forehead.

There are nine similar marks on his forehead!

It's like a circle.

Each mark faintly exudes a chilling fluctuation of law, a sign that it has been recognized by the fundamental law.

From this moment on, he finally gained recognition for the last of the Ten Fundamental Origins: the Law of Time!
The origin of the universe.

A portion of Qin Ming's consciousness quickly detached from the boundless earth and was directly drawn to the 'call'.

"Boom~~~"

This is the ocean formed by the fundamental laws of time, the origin of the 'laws of time' in the entire primordial universe.

An endless aura of laws permeated every part of the ocean.

"The last one, the fundamental law of time, has finally been acknowledged, and it's finally done!"

Qin Ming let out a soft breath.

With his talent, if he had focused all his energy on the laws of time, he would have already gained the recognition of the fundamental laws.

But after trying it out, they found that in just a few years, the laws of metal and wood had gained recognition.

He then devoted some of his energy to the other eight lower-level fundamental laws.

Fortunately, all ten fundamental laws were finally recognized by the laws.
