Xue Ying flew in the sky above the Xia Clan world. He looked at the world below. There were many villages, and the human population was ten times that in the past. In the distant, he could see many Transcendent flying across the sky. There were many humans taking root in places that included the Mountain Range of Destruction and the northern Great Snowy Plains; they had used Transcendental methods to create an environment suitable for living.
'The current Xia Clan has a more conducive environment to cultivate now as compared to the past.' Xue Ying was satisfied. When he was young, because his father was a noble, that was how he could obtain the Qi cultivation method. Now, everyone from the Xia Clan could receive Qi cultivation methods or magic techniques.
A million years down the road, the entire Xia Clan had a massive change. Just the number of Transcendents numbered tens of thousands in the Xia Clan–that was a hundred times more than his generation.
"Sou."
Xue Ying turned into a stream of light before landing on a beach.
The azure seawater was lightly charging on the snowy-white beach. There were quite a few people on this beach; they were all wearing beachwear and enjoying themselves. Women, though, were more conservative in their choice of attire.
"This section of beach belongs to the Transcendent family, Nancheng County's Mo Clan." Two young men in beachwear were chatting as they walked side by side.
"Mo Clan? Nancheng County's Mo Clan holds quite a lot of power around it. Their clan should have at least three Transcendents right?"
"Mn, three Transcendents is a number which our county can't compare with. It is enough to rule over the entire territory in this little place. Let's not talk about this. It has been a long time since we could relax. After a few days, we will be entering the Crimson Rock Mountain World for training. By then, more than half of us will be eliminated."
"I've heard the training is set up by our clan and a sect called the Iron Sword Sect within the Crimson Rock Mountain World. Ai, Third Brother, your combat power is high enough to be confident of succeeding, but it'll be dangerous for me. If I have no luck, then I'll become an Alchemist and hope to gain enough merit so that the clan will allow me to undergo body transcendence."
"Be what Alchemist? That is too tough. I've heard that you have quite a good relationship with a beauty from the Dong Bo Clan? The Dong Bo Clan is also the clan where Monarch Dong Bo is from! If you were to gain some slight benefits, then you will be able to enjoy yourself already."
"What if she pays you?"
"That'll take my life!"
The two young men were chatting.
Not far away, a young man who was currently under the sun eating fruits turned sullen. He did not even want her even if she paid him? That was truly face-slapping.
'I wonder which lass he is speaking from my clan.' Xue Ying thought. Over the extended period, the Dong Bo Clan had continued expanding. Xia Clan World, Crimson Rock Mountain and even in the Deity World were filled with the descendants from the Dong Bo Clan. There were genuinely many of them.
'When I was young, a Legend ranker was able to become an expert within the County, and Transcendents are enough to cause countless deaths within a County! But now… there are even quite a few Transcendents in a little city.' Xue Ying looked above far away. With his vision, he frequently saw many streams of light arcing through the sky.
Hearing all sorts of discussions happening within the beach, Xue Ying could feel the transformation of an era.
Even though the current Xia Clan did not have an emperor, and that the Xia Clan's Elders were managing it, he, Xue Ying, had still been publicly recognized as the most magnificent Deity in the entire Xia Clan history and was called the 'Xia Emperor'.
"Hua~"
The sea water lightly charged up the shore.
Xue Ying walked along the beach, leaving behind footprints. The surrounding people did not know that this young man was that legendary Monarch Dong Bo from a million years ago who upended the heaven and earth.
As he walked and walked, suddenly, he was on the surface of the sea water, stepping on it as he proceeded on.
"Which Transcendent is he? Or is he a Legend ranker showing off here?"
The many bypassers on the beach were discussing this. Transcendents were seen frequently, and Legend rankers even more so. Seeing someone walk on water was nothing special to them.
******
Xue Ying's heart was no longer present in this world. As he walked on the seawater, looking at the vast ocean, his eyes enjoying the azure-blue sky, the seawater, the islands far away, the sunlight, the many lifeforms underneath the water… an unseen law was controlling everything under his observation. In the past, he had grasped hold of nine grade one Deity Hearts, and now, he had even jumped out of the world prison, opening the 'Dao of Mirage'.
He could overlook the entire law of the world.
Just a moment later, the nine grade one Deity Hearts within his mind began fusing together as one, and naturally, it formed a beautiful and complete law.
'Law of the world?' Xue Ying was stunned, 'I comprehended it just like this?'
That's right.
Previously as he was observing the entire Xia Clan world, Xue Ying had comprehended the entire law of the world. In the past, there was a long period which he had tried all means to comprehend, yet he always lacked that bit. Finally, after he visited the Starting Ground, with his 700,000 years of accumulation in knowledge towards understanding the profound mysteries of the world, he was able to open the 'Dao of Mirage' after observing the great illusory world.
Now that he returned to the Xia Clan World, he had comprehended the law of the world!
'This is, this truly is…' Xue Ying did not know if he should cry or laugh, 'I wanted to comprehend yet I couldn't! Now that I am not seeking to do so, I have comprehended it. Such a pity that it is too late!'
He understood.
'It's too late, too late. Now that I am in the Opening realm, this law of the world is unable to allow me to transcend.' Xue Ying shook his head. Looking forward, seeing through the world, he was able to see the vast river behind it.
This broad river covered the entire cosmos, piercing through the material realm, the Deity world, and even the Dark Abyss.
Countless lives were immersed within.
Amongst which, there was an immensely towering figure. It was none other than Xue Ying! With his figure now, it was much bigger than that when he saw at the Dark Abyss. The width of his waist had occupied one-tenth of the entire vast river of time! Compared to Xue Ying's colossal figure, the broad River of Time seemed to be a little river.
The river flow was encircling him as his figure was just too huge.
"He!"
The vast Xue Ying operated the law of the world and tried his best to escape from the river using the Dao of Mirage. "Hong long long", the surrounding river was surging, and the fiercer he pulled himself, the stronger the river restricted him. Xue Ying was doing his best to struggle forward, and he had even gotten half of his body out of the river surface, yet his legs were being restricted by the water, preventing him from escaping.
"Ai." Xue Ying gave up. His body fell back in.
'Indeed, as they say, I've reached a higher realm of life when I broke through to the Opening realm. Just the law of the world is unable to allow me to escape from it.' Xue Ying lightly shook his head, 'I will have to reach the Ruler realm before being able to escape from it.'
...
Standing on top of the Xia clan world ocean, even though he had comprehended the law of the world, he remained as calm as ever; this was within his expectations.
'I'll hurry and convert my realm into true combat power.' Xue Ying disappeared amidst the ocean as he returned to the Cultivation Eden, Crimson Dust Island.
