Douluo Continent: I had just reached my limit when the sky exposed me.

Chapter 233 The Power of Rules
Above the sky, the golden curtain of light still hangs high.

The lingering power of the third-place Seventy-Two Transformations echoed like thunder throughout every corner of the Douluo Continent.

The supernatural power of changing a thousand things with a single thought has instilled fear in countless forces.

All eyes were fixed on the two remaining spots on the list.

Second, and first.

That's the ultimate pinnacle of the martial arts and secret techniques ranking!

It is an existence that surpasses the Seventy-Two Transformations and the Kunpeng Technique.

Countless Soul Masters held their breath, their heartbeats seemingly slowing down, for fear of missing the ultimate revelation that would overturn all understanding.

……

Inside the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong's eyes were fixed on the sky, her fingertips tracing the armrest of the papal throne.

Her heart was already filled with the name of Beidou Academy.

Li Bai, Lü Bu, Zhuang Zhou, Sun Wukong...

These names, one by one, were like mountains, pressing down on her and making it hard for her to breathe.

Now, the revelation of second and first place will likely make Beidou Academy shine even brighter.

"Your Majesty the Pope..."

The ghostly voice trembled slightly.

"The top two spots on this list... they can't be from Beidou Academy, can they?"

Bibi Dong did not answer, but the seriousness in her eyes deepened.

……

Haotian Sect.

Tang Chen looked up at the sky, a complex light flashing in his cloudy eyes.

The loss of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique has long been replaced by the desire for peak power.

He had lived for hundreds of years and seen countless martial arts techniques and secret skills, but he had never seen so many heaven-defying inheritances.

He was eager to know what secrets were hidden at the top of this list.

Just then, above the sky...

The golden runes suddenly stopped flowing.

"Boom boom boom!"

An invisible pressure slowly spread out.

This oppressive aura was different from the sharpness of the Seven Kill Sword Technique, and different from the brilliance of the Celestial Immortal.

It is different from the killing and slaughter of the Ten Directions Asura, and also different from the unpredictable nature of the Seventy-Two Transformations.

It is unremarkable, yet it is everywhere.

This is the power of the rules.

It is the supreme pressure that transcends all power and establishes the order of the world!
……

Star Dou Forest, core area.

Gu Yuena's expression suddenly changed. She looked up abruptly, a look of disbelief flashing in her eyes.

"This... this is the power of rules!"

Di Tian was also shaken, his massive body trembling slightly: "Rules... someone can actually control the power of rules?"

Rules are the foundation of the universe's operation, a power that even gods must revere.

Even a god-king can only act within the framework of the rules.

The oppressive force permeating the sky was actually a power that directly targeted the very origin of the rules!
The entire Douluo Continent fell into an unprecedented silence.

There was no uproar, no discussion, only utter silence.

Everyone felt the oppressive force emanating from the rules, as if their life and death were being controlled by an invisible hand.

Just then, golden light exploded in the sky.

Lines of large golden characters, like proverbs from the beginning of time, slowly emerged!
[Ranking 2 on the list of martial arts techniques and secret skills]

【Name: Longevity of Heaven and Earth】

[Category: Rule-based Supernatural Power]

[Creator: None (Heaven and Earth Inheritance)] [Suitable Person: Lu Xiao]

[Technique Analysis: This is a heaven-defying divine power that directly points to the very essence of the rules of heaven and earth. It has no moves, no forms, and no fluctuations in soul power. With just a single thought, one can completely bind one's own life to the life of the target, and even the life of the entire world. If I die, you die, and heaven and earth perish with me; if you live, I live, and heaven and earth coexist. Once this divine power is unleashed, an unbreakable chain of rules is formed between the caster and the target. Unless the caster actively releases it, no force can break this bond. Theoretically speaking, this divine power is unsolvable.]

[Proficiency: Perfect]

[Commentary: A single thought binds life and death, granting immortality equal to heaven and earth. Rules are the chain, life and death are the pieces; this is the ultimate divine power to defy fate!]

[Reward: Rule affinity increased by 30%, the "Coexistence" ability derived from the Heaven and Earth Coexistence Divine Power is unlocked, allowing you to share your life force with the bound target]

"boom!"

This time, the uproar across the entire Douluo Continent was more intense than ever before!
"A rule-based supernatural power!"

"Heaven and earth live as long! If you die, I die and heaven and earth are buried with me! Is this... is this still a power that a human can control?"

"No solution! Theoretically, no solution! This means that if Lu Xiao wanted to, he could drag anyone, even the entire Douluo Continent, down with him!"

"It's Beidou Academy again! It's Lu Xiao again! The top three spots have been taken by Beidou Academy!"

"Lu Xiao... this name will probably become a nightmare for everyone on the Douluo Continent!"

"..."

Exclamations of alarm swept across the continent like a tsunami, and countless Soul Masters collapsed to the ground, their faces filled with despair.

Rule-based supernatural power!
An unsolvable supernatural power!
In a single thought, life and death are intertwined, and heaven and earth are buried with them!
This power has exceeded everyone's imagination.

Imagine that when Lu Xiao faces an enemy, he can bind the enemy's life to his own and to the heavens and earth with a single thought.

If the other party wants to kill him, they will have to pay the price of their own life, or even the entire world!

This is not a battle at all; this is blatant intimidation!

It is the ultimate deterrent that transcends all power!

……

Inside the council hall of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.

Yu Yuanzhen plopped down in a chair, his face ashen.

He stared at the information displayed on the screen, his lips trembling, unable to utter a single word.

Rule-based supernatural powers... there's no solution...

Such power is beyond their ability to contend with.

Don't even mention the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family!
Even the Spirit Hall, and even all the forces of the entire Douluo Continent united, could not contend with Lu Xiao, who possessed the power to live as long as heaven and earth!
"Clan leader..."

An elder said in a trembling voice.

"We...we absolutely cannot offend Beidou Academy in the future...absolutely not!"

Yu Yuanzhen snapped out of his daze and nodded vigorously: "Pass on my order! From this day forward, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan will respect the Beidou Academy!"

"No disciple may engage in any conflict with anyone from the Beidou Academy! Anyone who disobeys this order will be expelled from the family and executed without mercy!"

His voice trembled slightly, but also carried a hint of determination.

……

Inside the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong suddenly stood up, a hint of fear flashing in her purple eyes.

Lu Bu's Ten Directions Asura, Li Bai's Celestial Immortal, and Sun Wukong's Seventy-Two Transformations.

Although powerful, it can still be countered with force.

But living as long as heaven and earth is not the same.

This is a rule-based supernatural power, an unsolvable supernatural power.

If she dares to attack Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao only needs to think once to bind her life to the heavens and earth.

Even if he dies, he'll drag the entire Douluo Continent down with him!
“Lu Xiao…”

Bibi Dong's voice carried a hint of solemnity.

"Beidou Academy..."

Once again, the thought of retreating arose in her heart.

Ghost and Moon Pass were even more ashen-faced.

As they looked at the information on the sky, they felt a chill run from their feet to the top of their heads.
