The Tongtian Bridge plane, Central Plaza.

A deathly silence.

Those immortal beings who had lived for countless years all stared wide-eyed at the enormous light screen before them.

On the light screen, the scene of Jiang Ming stepping through the eighth floor was still replaying—with a flick of his hand, the world was overturned.

The black-armored youth, whose strength rivaled that of a peak Realm Lord, vanished into countless specks of light before he could even unleash a single spear thrust.

"Law Domains...Eight Law Domains..."

An immortal marquis with white hair murmured, his voice becoming hoarse.

"How is this possible? The Law Domain is something you can only master by completely comprehending a fundamental law! That's the power of immortals! He's a universe-level..."

He couldn't finish his sentence.

Because he saw it.

On the light screen, the eight-colored lotus mark between Jiang Ming's eyebrows was glowing faintly, and eight completely different auras of law emanated naturally from his body, intertwining and forming a heart-pounding rhythm.

"I have fully comprehended all eight fundamental laws."

The Nine Swords Venerable's voice was filled with an overwhelming sense of shock.

Among the powerful figures present, Nine Swords Venerable was quite familiar with Jiang Ming, having met him several times before.

Even he couldn't believe that Jiang Ming could do something like this!

This is completely illogical!

This is beyond what genius can describe.

"What kind of comprehension must that be? What kind of talent must that be?!"

"A monster... truly a monster! The greatest genius in human history, he deserves that title!"

"It's more than just being able to shoulder the responsibility; this is unprecedented! And probably will be unparalleled in the future!"

The murmurs and discussions rippled across the square like boiling water. Those usually aloof and arrogant immortals now wore undisguised shock and amazement on their faces.

No one felt ashamed.

Because in the face of such talent, everyone can only look up in awe.

Even if they are immortal, even if they are revered!

Unlike those who were simply shocked and immortalized, there was another group whose reactions were far more complex.

"No...it's impossible..."

Among the crowd, a Marquis Immortal dressed in a blood-red battle robe had a deathly pale face and his hands were trembling slightly.

His name is Blood Axe Marquis. He is a renowned powerhouse in the Savage Universe Kingdom, with a vast fortune and a gambling-loving personality.

This time, he bet a full eight million Hunyuan units on Jiang Ming's gambling platform.

The bet is that Jiang Ming will stop at the eighth floor.

"Eight Law Domains... All eight fundamental laws have been fully comprehended..."

Blood Axe Marquis's voice trembled, and cold sweat poured down his forehead like a waterfall.

"Is this something that can be done on a cosmic scale?! Is this something that humans can do?!"

He wanted to swear.

He wanted to smash things.

He wished he could go back a month and slap himself twice across the face.

Eight million Chaos Units—even if he were a genuine Marquis-level expert, that would represent almost all of his liquid assets.

An immortal's wealth is mostly comprised of weapons, spaceships, secret techniques, treasures, and so on, with liquid assets typically accounting for only 10% to 30% of their total wealth.

Without these eight million mixed units, it wouldn't be to the point of financial ruin.

But life can be very difficult.

Beside him, a fellow immortal king, whose face was equally ashen, patted him on the shoulder, his tone more unpleasant than crying.

"Stop talking, I bet twelve million on the seventh floor."

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the same emotion in each other's eyes—

Heart like a knife.

Similar scenes played out in every corner of the square.

"I bet on the fifth floor! Three million!"

"I bet on the ninth floor! Five million!"

"Hehe, I bet on the fourth layer, fifteen million."

An old, withered-faced immortal spoke softly, and the surroundings instantly fell silent.

The way everyone looked at him was full of disdain.

The fourth floor?

How much must one despise Jiang Ming to bet on the fourth layer?

The old immortal gave a bitter laugh, his cloudy old eyes filled with regret.

"I thought... even if he's a genius, the Cosmic Chaos Monument is universally acknowledged as the most difficult path. On his first attempt, he'd be lucky to even get past the fourth level..."

Lost.

They all lost.

Those immortals who bet on Jiang Ming stopping at the lower levels felt their hearts bleeding.

But in stark contrast to these losers is another group of people.

........

"Hahahaha! I knew it! I knew this kid was more than just this!"

At the edge of the plaza, a burly giant covered in golden scales laughed and slapped his thigh, causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly.

Golden Armor King, an immortal king, is a well-known gambler in the Hong Alliance.

He placed a bet of 500,000 units on the gambling table, betting that Jiang Ming could pass the twelfth level.

Five hundred thousand isn't a lot for an immortal king. But the key point is—

The odds for the twelfth level are 1 to 48000.

"I got it! I got it! I got it!"

The Golden Armor King grinned from ear to ear, his golden scales shimmering in the sunlight.

"Don't be smug. Your understanding of the laws at the Immortal level is enough to get through the tenth level. Jiang Ming has fully comprehended all eight of the fundamental sources, and they are even combined with each other."

"His understanding of the laws should be between the tenth and thirteenth levels. If he has any hidden trump cards, it's not impossible for him to even pass the thirteenth level and reach the fourteenth."

"His understanding of the laws should be between the tenth and thirteenth levels. If he has any hidden trump cards, it's not impossible for him to even pass the thirteenth level and reach the fourteenth."

Beside the Golden Armor King, a powerful figure clad in cyan armor spoke.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. I also placed several thousand units of mixed energy on the thirteenth floor. I'll make a profit whether it's the twelfth or the thirteenth floor."

King Jinjia laughed heartily.

Those who achieve immortality as kings typically start with tens of millions of mixed-elemental units, so spending tens or hundreds of thousands on casual games is naturally not a big deal.

Therefore, some people make more aggressive bets.

After all, this gambling platform is so high that even on the 30th level of the Sky Bridge, some people dare to throw in dozens of Hunyuan units to play around.

.......

On the Tongtian Bridge, Jiang Ming's steps did not stop.

On the ninth floor, the gatekeeper is a white-clad man wielding two swords. His swordsmanship is sharp, and his application of spatial laws is quite exquisite.

Jiang Ming did not achieve an instant kill.

He stopped and exchanged more than a dozen blows with the man in white, gaining a new understanding of how these gatekeepers applied the fundamental laws of space and time.

Then he turned his palm and killed him.

Ninth floor, passed.

.....

We reached the tenth floor.

The methods employed by the gatekeepers on this level piqued Jiang Ming's interest.

This is an old man dressed in silver armor, holding a black longsword.

The cosmic space around him was folded nine times, and these nine layers of cosmic space refracted his figure in countless ways, making it difficult to distinguish which was the real body and which was the 'mirror image' produced by the folding of space.

"Spatial folding..."

A hint of interest flashed in Jiang Ming's eyes.

This was the first time he had witnessed such exquisite application of spatial laws in actual combat.

Jiang Ming exchanged dozens of blows with the gatekeeper. After using his Heavenly Eye to record the opponent's application of the two superior fundamental laws of space and time, he suddenly unleashed his power and killed him.
