Chapter 423 The Original Dark Laws, Black Holes and Nothingness
His soul sensed this "primordial darkness of the universe," and felt the "aura" it naturally emanated.
O
That was the silence of "the end," the coldness of "return to nothingness," the ultimate "darkness" of all things, an existence that could even devour time and cause and effect.
It subtly forms a peculiar contrast with Li Xijun's already perfected "Indestructible Vajra Body"—
One is the pursuit of its own "eternal existence," while the other symbolizes the "ultimate return to darkness" of all things.
none".
One emphasizes "existence" to the extreme, while the other points directly to the ultimate opposite of "existence".
Amidst this intense contradiction and contrast, even after only a brief initial encounter, Li Xijun gained numerous insights and a deeper understanding of the "Indestructible Vajra Body" technique.
Something's not right...
'
"I just had a strange urge to practice this technique in reverse, and I instinctively felt that it was highly possible?"
As Li Xijun experienced his own "Indestructible Vajra Body," he looked at the thunder blade in his inner vision and a sense of profound contemplation arose within him.
"This Vajra Indestructible Body was tempted by the original darkness of the universe to reverse its cultivation, and the pitch-black lightning contained in the Nine Heavens Heavenly Punishment Blade also contained a dark intent of destruction and end that was quite similar to the original darkness of the universe."
"The ancient thunder god...and Buddhism...are indeed closely related."
However, Li Xijun was not in a hurry to do anything to verify it.
Right now, the most important thing is to break through to the Martial Saint realm. Once I become a Martial Saint and unlock the secrets within, I can suppress everything with my absolute strength.
With this in mind, he suppressed his thoughts and recalled the initial sensations he had just experienced of the source essence.
As it turns out, this primordial substance containing the "original darkness of the universe" did indeed have an immeasurable enlightening effect on his understanding of the essence of the laws.
"It's like everyone is trying hard to solve a problem, like Goldbach's Conjecture."
"But compared to those who are clueless and don't know what to do, I have a reference answer here."
"As long as you follow the steps in the reference answer one by one, getting the final answer is not difficult at all."
Li Xijun's lips curled into a slightly suppressed smile as he turned his gaze to another gain from the inner universe.
"Moreover, I have another help—a fragment of the Pantheon's divine essence."
This fragment, obtained from the ruins of the Pantheon and containing a portion of the authority and insights of the God-King Orog, is currently radiating three clear and powerful rhythms of law:
The vastness of the sky, the weight of the earth, the judgment of thunder.
These three laws, which originated in the main world, are undoubtedly closer to Li Xijun's existing power system than the "Original Darkness of the Universe".
The "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Si Xiang Jue" involves stars and the universe, and has many similarities with the "sky".
The foundation forged by the "Indestructible Vajra Body" is similar to the "weightiness of the earth".
The sword technique he cultivated with the Nine Heavens Punishment Blade was directly related to "thunder".
More importantly, the insights into the laws contained in this fragment of divinity have been organized and integrated by God-King Orogg, who is at least a Martial Saint. Compared to the pure and primitive manifestation of the concept of "Cosmic Darkness," it is more "orderly" and "easier to understand and learn from."
A wisp of Li Xijun's divine soul power separated out, acting like the most sophisticated decoder, and began to analyze this fragment of divine essence.
He did not intend to follow in the footsteps of Orogg, but rather, like an archaeologist, he carefully examined and deciphered the writing on ancient documents, attempting to understand how that ancient god-king had comprehended these three laws.
The "texture" of each law unfolds slowly in his mind like the most complex symphony.
With the high-dimensional laws provided by the "Cosmic Primordial Darkness" as a reference, and with the specific, orderly, and partially related law samples provided by the "Divine Fragment," Li Xijun's efficiency in comprehending the laws has increased by more than a hundred or a thousand times!
It's as if he simultaneously possesses both the "rule reference answer" and "a set of key notes and example problems meticulously compiled by a top student," and he himself is an exceptionally gifted "genius student" with extraordinary comprehension.
"Using the primordial darkness of the universe to verify the profound and far-reaching nature of the laws, thus establishing the upper limit of understanding."
"Using 'Divine Fragments' to provide the specific patterns and textures of laws lowers the barrier to entry."
Li Xijun closed his eyes, completely immersing himself in this unprecedented and luxurious "feast of understanding the laws".
In the inner universe, the movement of the stars seemed to have slowed down.
Time once again slipped away quietly in the quiet room.
Nine months have passed quietly.
During this period, Li Xijun's divine soul, which was at the second level of the lightning tribulation, continued to analyze the pure and primordial final meaning of the "Cosmic Primordial Darkness" source substance, while referring to the orderly textures of the three laws of sky, earth, and lightning in the "Divine Fragment" as a reference for understanding.
With the help of these two almost superhuman aids, the insights gained over the past nine months have been remarkably efficient.
The barrier of laws that ordinary Vajra had struggled to break through for a hundred years was approached, touched, and even—initially cracked open—by Li Xijun with the help of these two treasures that could be described as "cheat devices."
On this day, the atmosphere in the quiet room suddenly became unusual.
Li Xijun, sitting cross-legged, seemed to have his powerful aura and life radiance, unique to the Perfect Vajra Realm, isolated and contained by an invisible membrane, no longer emitting the slightest fluctuation.
At this moment, he no longer seemed like the invincible Vajra Warrior from before, but rather like an ordinary person.
When he sat there, he was like an inanimate object in this private villa, like the most ordinary chair or ornament in the room. It seemed that even if a martial artist of the Great Vajra level swept his divine sense over him, he would hardly find anything wrong with him.
As time slowly passed, when the sun once again hung obliquely in the west, its pale, dusky afterglow spilled onto the campus of Qingquan Chunhui Hall, passing through the ancient spiritual trees, and finally falling into the room, landing on the boy who kept his eyes closed, like a withered piece of wood.
Suddenly, an indescribable sense of "absence" quietly spread around him. It was not the arrival of darkness, nor the depletion of energy, but a more fundamental, eerie atmosphere that seemed to dilute and weaken even the concept of "existence" itself.
The light in the quiet room did not dim, but the colors inexplicably appeared old and faded, as if they had been washed away by countless ages and lost their vibrant essence.
The air became extremely slow and viscous, and fine dust particles were suspended in the light, their tracks so clear they were unsettling, as if they would freeze in time forever.
Such a scene made it seem as if the end of the world was about to be born from this ordinary villa room.
Li Xijun kept his eyes closed, his brows furrowed, and fine beads of sweat seeped from his forehead, which were then naturally dried by his skin.
His soul was bearing an enormous burden, not from a physical impact, but from a massive influx of knowledge, originating from the appearance of some powerful being, the most essential being in the universe, within his consciousness.
The laws contained within the "Cosmic Primordial Darkness" essence, like a cold torrent, continuously washed over and imprinted on his core soul along the analytical path provided by the "Divine Fragment".
Those are fragments of primordial laws concerning ultimate concepts such as "end," "return to nothingness," "annihilation," and "the opposite of existence."
This process was not a gentle enlightenment, but more like a passive and forced "imprint" and "assimilation," making Li Xijun feel at all times that he had fallen into a black hole in the universe, and that his physical body, soul and even himself would be completely swallowed, crushed and annihilated by that terrifying black hole.
If it weren't for the fact that his "Indestructible True Self" forged by the "Invincible Vajra Body" was as solid as a mountain, his divine soul of the second level of the lightning tribulation was extremely resilient, and he had experienced the trials of going from death to life when he broke through the second level of the lightning tribulation, and the "divine fragments" played a "buffering" and "translation" role to a certain extent, his consciousness would probably have been frozen or even disintegrated by this pure "ending" meaning.
However, risks and opportunities coexist.
Under this continuous and intense surge of legal information, a sudden "Buzz!" occurred at a certain moment.
On the core of Li Xijun's soul, on the heart image that represents his own will and path, an extremely subtle yet incredibly clear light ink-colored pattern suddenly lit up and was then deeply imprinted within it!
This pattern, unlike any brilliant or refined expression of true meaning, is more like a "wound," a "notch," a mark representing "nothingness."
It doesn't radiate power; instead, it's like a miniature "black hole," subtly absorbing the light and fluctuations of the surrounding mental images.
Initial understanding of the Primal Dark Laws!
"boom--!"
As if in a chain reaction, the moment this wisp of law pattern took shape, the strange "sense of absence" around Li Xijun suddenly materialized and expanded!
Within a five-meter radius of him, everything suddenly fell into absolute silence and desolation!
The sound disappeared, not because it was isolated, but because the air waves, the medium through which the sound was transmitted, seemed to have lost their ability to transmit sound waves.
The light still exists, but all colors have faded, leaving only a monotonous world of black, white, and gray with extremely low contrast and blurred outlines.
The "presence" of the space becomes thin, as if this area is being gently "erased" from the canvas of reality, creating a subtle sense of separation from the main world.
Even more astonishingly, within this range, all the free spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and even the trace of blood and qi that Li Xijun himself inadvertently leaked out, were as if they had encountered the ultimate "dissolving agent," silently annihilating and dissipating. They were not absorbed or transformed, but directly returned to the most basic "nothingness," without even a ripple of energy being stirred up.
Although the range was only five meters, and it was extremely unstable, fluctuating violently and then collapsing and dissipating in less than three breaths, this was indeed the initial interference of the power of the law in reality!
It is the beginning of a great power that transcends "true meaning" and directly and temporarily modifies or negates the world rules of a local area!
Li Xijun suddenly opened her eyes.
Deep within his eyes, around the edge of his dark golden pupils, seemed to be a faint, almost invisible halo of ink, giving his aura a chilling, lifeless coldness.
He slowly raised his right hand, extending his index finger.
With a slight thought, he tried to guide the faint yet profound meaning of the newly imprinted "Primordial Dark Law".
There was no radiance, no sound.
Suddenly, a tiny, absolutely black dot, the size of a pinhead, appeared in the air an inch in front of his fingertips.
This small dot is not a physical entity, but a miniature "nothingness" formed after "space" and "matter" are temporarily "negated" by that trace of the law's meaning.
The moment it appeared, it was as if a black hole, capable of swallowing everything, had appeared in the deepest and most mysterious universe. The surrounding light was slightly distorted, as if it were being swallowed up.
Then, with a soft "poof," the small dot disappeared, and the air was refilled, but the air temperature in that small area seemed to have permanently decreased by a trace, carrying a cold and deathly stillness like that after the end of all things.
Li Xijun lowered her hand, feeling the lingering cold rhythm on her fingertips that seemed to "erase" everything.
"law----"
He murmured to himself, his voice sounding somewhat ethereal in the newly restored quiet room.
It's completely different now.
In the past, his "Time Sword Intent" was fully realized, capable of accelerating, freezing, and triggering time tribulations, with terrifying power. However, it was ultimately just playing with the attribute of "time" within the framework of "existence".
The "original dark law" that has just been touched is essentially a kind of negation and dissolution of "existence" itself.
It doesn't compete with you in terms of strength, speed, or depth of meaning; it directly affects the more fundamental rules of the universe, rendering your offensive energy "ineffective," weakening the matter that defends you, and shaking the very foundation of your existence.
This is a difference in dimensionality.
Below the level of a Martial Saint, any power that has not mastered the laws appears pale and fragile in the face of such a fundamental difference.
No matter how powerful your Vajra Nine Revolutions Qi and Blood are, or how profound your true meaning and profound skills are close to the Dao, once you are directly affected by the true power of the law, you may not even have room to struggle and will be "dealt with" from the most basic level.
"Nine months—with the help of source matter and fragments of divinity, I have finally truly seen and touched the threshold of the laws."
Li Xijun took a deep breath, calming the turmoil in his heart caused by mastering this transcendent power.
"Although it's only a preliminary understanding of the 'Primal Dark Laws,' the direction is clear, and the path is well-defined."
"Next, it is time to consolidate this insight and use it to activate the original dark law to empower myself, break through to the Martial Saint realm, and lay the most solid foundation."
He closed his eyes again, his mind sinking into the inner universe.
There, the light ink-colored patterns representing the "Primordial Dark Law" have left an indelible mark on the heart.
The retreat is not yet over, but the most crucial step has already been taken.
