Creating Heavenly Laws

“Chaos Origin — the Primordial Tao!”

In that moment, under the push of four Chaos Origin Daos, the final Chaos Origin Dao evolved from the Innate Five Tai was finally completed.

The Chaos Origin Taiji Dao, Chaos Origin Taisu Dao, Chaos Origin Taishi Dao, Chaos Origin Taichu Dao, and Chaos Origin Taiyi Dao rapidly fused together, giving birth to an entirely new Dao.

After over twenty thousand years of climbing the White Jade Steps, Lin Yuan had been one step away from comprehending the Chaos Origin Taisu Dao. He had accumulated everything to the limit, yet could never take that final step—until now. Pressured by terrifying entities from across space and time, he finally succeeded.

“Fuse.”

Lin Yuan moved with a thought.

The five Chaos Origin Daos began to merge rapidly.

More precisely, the Chaos Origin Taisu Dao was integrating into the previous four Chaos Origin Daos.

It was as if a corner of a missing map had been restored, completing a flawless whole.

“This—” Lin Yuan’s entire mind was immersed in the newly born Dao. The new Dao, formed by the fusion of the five Chaos Origin Daos, stood above all other Chaos Origin Daos, carrying a faint sense of the Supreme Rule Daos.

As soon as the new Dao was born, it began to feed back into Lin Yuan—into everything he was: his body, soul, mind, will. Every true self, every clone or incarnation—as long as it was Lin Yuan, it was evolving at an unfathomable speed.

“RUMMMMBLE~~” Lin Yuan’s consciousness roared. The explosive growth of his body, soul, and spirit was so intense, he momentarily lost awareness of the outside world.

In the chaotic void.

This region had completely become the battlefield to suppress Lin Yuan. Over five hundred terrifying entities from across space-time were risking their lives, their powers drawn together by the will of the Supreme Rule Dao and fully fused—unleashing forces that shook the past, future, and countless timelines.

In fact, beyond those five hundred beings, many legendary lords from the current timeline had also joined in.

Among them were Lord Haotian and Lord Fantian.

For legendary lords from other timelines to invoke the Supreme Rule Dao’s will and try to prevent the Milky Way from transcending, the minimum requirement was to survive three hundred million tribulations.

But legendary lords of the current timeline only needed to survive a hundred million tribulations to join this catastrophe aimed at stopping the Milky Way’s rise to a new transcendence.

Once the five hundred entities descended, Lords Haotian and Fantian led the charge, and other lords who had survived hundreds of millions of tribulations followed suit.

With such powerful beings at the front, even if this tribulation failed, they could retreat unscathed.

This was the real reason so many of the legendary lords from the current timeline joined in.

If it failed, not much was lost. If it succeeded, the gains would be astronomical.

As a result, over ninety percent of the legendary lords who had passed a hundred million tribulations joined in.

Their numbers reached into the tens of thousands.

However, in the effort to suppress the Milky Way Lord, these ten thousand legendary lords were merely supporting forces.

The true core of power came from the five hundred-plus terrifying entities from other timelines.

As Lin Yuan comprehended the Chaos Origin Taisu Dao and fused the five Chaos Origin Daos into a new Dao, this new Dao began to rapidly feed back into him, immersing his entire mind in it.

Because of this, his resistance against the five hundred entities outside weakened.

The invisible barriers of his outer universe began to dissipate, and his defensive and life-preserving measures gradually shut down.

“A perfect opportunity.”

The being radiating infinite light lit up with excitement.

Though it didn’t know why Lin Yuan would let his guard down, this was an extremely rare chance.

Even with five hundred terrifying entities going all out, it would normally still take a prolonged stalemate to truly suppress Lin Yuan.

But now—

Lin Yuan had voluntarily dropped his defenses? Wasn’t this offering them a golden chance?

“Origin Light!”

The being of infinite light exploded, condensing all of its power into a brilliant beam. That beam rippled through layers of time and space. The other entities, seeing this, also launched their ultimate killing techniques.

With the blessing of the Supreme Rule Dao’s will, all these killing strikes fused into a fully contained, dark-grey attack, crashing down on Lin Yuan.

With his outer-universe defenses gone, this deadly strike—fused from all the beings’ desperate killing moves and supported by over ten thousand legendary lords—struck Lin Yuan’s physical body without resistance.

“Hmm?”

Light reformed, and the being of infinite light was utterly shocked. It stared at Lin Yuan, who appeared to have abandoned defense.

That terrifying fusion strike had landed on Lin Yuan, yet it hadn’t shaken him in the slightest. The immense force was completely absorbed, devoured, and neutralized upon contact with his body.

“Impossible…”

The being of infinite light couldn’t believe it. That fused, dark-grey strike was stopped so easily? Was the Milky Way Lord’s defense really that impenetrable?

If it was, why had he struggled during their previous siege?

“Was he hiding his strength? Or did he just break through?”

The being pondered. Only those two possibilities could explain what had just happened.

It leaned toward the former. After all, breaking through during battle was unheard of. The stronger one was, the more difficult it became to break through without extremely refined conditions.

A breakthrough mid-battle? Maybe when weak. But for beings nearing the end of the path to transcendence? That was fantasy.

Lin Yuan stood there silently. His body now was unimaginably strong. Without using any techniques, he could withstand the desperate strikes of five hundred terrifying entities and over ten thousand legendary lords—purely through his physical form.

“Are you all ready to die?” Lin Yuan opened his eyes, gazing at the five hundred terrifying entities and the ten thousand legendary lords.

“Hahaha…” The being of infinite light laughed, looking at Lin Yuan. “Milky Way Lord, we truly underestimated you. You hid such a terrifying defensive capability.”

“I admit, in terms of defense, you are number one across all dimensions and times. No other legendary lord can compare to you.”

It spoke seriously.

“But that’s all.”

The being shook its head. “Strong defense doesn’t mean you can kill us. We each have countless life-preserving methods, with backups across past and future timelines. As long as a single living being remembers our names, we are effectively immortal. What can you use to kill us?”

To these five hundred entities, only the Supreme Rule Dao’s will could truly annihilate them.

Even the path of ‘Infinite Origin’ had little risk to them. The hardest part was locating the true origin of time.

Lin Yuan looked at the gathered entities, a subtle mark appearing on his forehead.

That mark was the essence of the new Dao born from the five fused Chaos Origin Daos. Lin Yuan activated it, and an invisible force spread outward from him.

As that force expanded, it instantly shattered the many layered prisons built by the five hundred entities.

BOOM BOOM BOOM~~~ Prison after prison crumbled. The five hundred terrifying beings now directly felt the pressure of the expanding force.

“This…?”

The being of infinite light’s pupils contracted. It felt an unprecedented oppression. Even its soul trembled in fear.

“We can’t block this. Absolutely can’t block it.”

Its eyes widened in horror. Instinct screamed that this force was irresistible.

“How can this be?”

“How?!”

The being couldn’t believe it, but had no time to dwell. It exploded once again, turning into beams of light fleeing in every direction.

If it couldn’t block it, it wouldn’t try. It would run.

The other beings, equally sharp, sensed something was wrong and immediately began to flee as well.

Further away, the ten thousand legendary lords from this timeline had no time to escape. Nearly a thousand were instantly touched by the force.

“AAAHHHH!!!”

One two-hundred-million-tribulation legendary lord with twin horns was stricken with terror. As the force swept through, his body, soul, will—all were obliterated without resistance.

If that were all, it wouldn’t be so terrifying. But as the force spread, even his past selves, future selves, timeline backups—even traces of his existence—were being wiped away.

Once every trace was erased, he would be truly, permanently dead. No revival possible.

How could he not be terrified?

“Milky Way Lord, I was wrong, I was—”

The force continued, and the twin-horned lord’s plea abruptly ended. He was utterly erased.

“Milky Way Lord!”

The being of infinite light reappeared, staring at the vanishing point of the twin-horned lord, realizing he had truly died.

The twin-horned lord had only survived two hundred million tribulations. To truly kill him? Only the Supreme Rule Dao could do it.

Even this being could at most destroy a few of his core bodies. Not fully kill him.

Yet now, he was gone. Entirely.

“You’ve transcended?” the being asked in a low voice.

Lin Yuan’s methods were already beyond its comprehension. A casual strike could now utterly destroy a two-hundred-million-tribulation legendary lord?

“Far from it,” Lin Yuan gently shook his head. He then looked at the five hundred entities, including the being of infinite light. “Now it’s your turn.”

BOOM!

The invisible force surged. The being of infinite light couldn’t dodge—only endure.

“No transcendence?”

Just by brushing the force, the being lost over forty percent of its past and future timeline incarnations.

“Go.”

“Everyone, go!”

“Return to your own timelines.”

The being was terrified. It hadn’t yet died like the twin-horned lord, but had already lost over forty percent of its time-spanning presence. If Lin Yuan struck again, it would end the same.

“Return to our own timelines?”

The five hundred entities immediately understood what that meant.

They weren’t beings of this timeline. If they could return to their own, Lin Yuan would have to follow to kill them.

Without the Supreme Rule Dao’s permission, interfering in past timelines would invoke catastrophic backlash on Lin Yuan.

These five hundred beings were nearly invincible in their own times. Their deaths would have unimaginable impact. The backlash would be unbearable—unless Lin Yuan had transcended.

“Go, go, go!”

“Return now!”

One after another, the entities tried to ride the timeline’s repulsion and return to their origins.

This meant the tribulation failed, but that was better than dying here.

“Trying to flee?”

Lin Yuan saw through them. He slowly closed his eyes.

“Heaven and Earth are my prison.”

When his eyes opened again, the mark on his forehead erupted. The formless force expanded across the infinite dimensions and timelines.

At that moment, all space-time in this dimension became a prison.

No exit.

Even those not of this timeline were trapped.

“No!”

Faces twisted in terror. Some entities self-destructed their combat bodies.

But even those left traces. And the formless force followed those traces, spreading to the beings’ past, future, and all backup methods.

Swoooosh.

The force rippled like waves. Legendary lords who had survived a hundred million or two hundred million tribulations couldn’t last even an instant—they were utterly erased from past, present, and future.

Even those who had survived nearly three hundred million tribulations could only last a few breaths longer—then were similarly erased.

The five hundred entities nearing the end of the transcendence path were tougher, but under the sweeping of the new Dao’s formless force, their erasure was only a matter of time.

High above time and space, Lin Yuan sat like a god. The entire dimension below became an alchemical furnace, refining legendary lords and terrifying entities alike.

Space-time trembled. Timelines twisted and collapsed.

A silver-white figure rode a timeline, trying to return to its origin.

“I’ve finally passed my two-hundred-millionth tribulation…”

A smile appeared on its face. “I, Wanwei, am now one step closer to transcendence.”

This silver figure—Lord Wanwei—had just completed a Supreme Rule trial by slaying a tribulation target in the distant future. He was returning to his original timeline.

Just then—

A turbulent, chaotic space-time forcefully dragged him in.

At first, Wanwei didn’t care. But upon closer look, he felt an overwhelming suffocation.

The entire space-time was sealed. Once inside, he was completely cut off from his origin—no return possible.

Even more shocking—an unimaginable massacre was occurring.

Countless legendary lords were falling, their corpses and blood filling the void.

Even the terrifying entities—each having passed over three hundred million tribulations, nearing the end of the transcendence path—were dying with no resistance.

Wanwei had landed in a lucky spot, untouched by the formless force—yet surrounded by corpses. Legendary lords who had survived hundreds of millions of tribulations lay like ants.

Wanwei struggled to lift his head, looking toward the heights of space-time.

There, a figure sat cross-legged. All the slaughter on this battlefield had come from that single being.

Wanwei stared, dazed, at the figure—like an ant gazing at the heavens.
