Chapter 770: The Mysterious Law, Life in Death, Death in Life
The Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal can enhance the soul level, but this is just one of its functions, and not even its main function. Lin Moyu’s greatest use of the Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal is to refine soul power, making it incredibly pure. At the same level, one unit of soul power can exert several times the effect of others.
For those with excellent talent, this function is more useful than enhancing the soul level.
While Lin Moyu was comprehending the laws, his soul body was also adapting to the laws, undergoing changes. These changes were mysterious, and his soul power was increasing, similar to gaining experience from leveling up by fighting monsters. Lin Moyu’s level was also gradually rising.
Although it couldn’t compare to sweeping through the dragon race, it was still good and stable.
As long as Lin Moyu’s comprehension continued, the increase in soul power would not stop.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. During this month, Lin Moyu’s mind completely calmed down. His entire aura became incredibly peaceful. Despite his efforts to remain calm during the recent mass killings, the killing intent that had arisen was absorbed by the Domain Divine Stone, but it still caused some impact.
These impacts caused ripples in his state of mind, preventing him from achieving complete tranquility.
Some killing intent had entered his soul, which even the Domain Divine Stone could not absorb.
This made him feel tired, something even divine power couldn’t erase.
Lin Moyu knew his situation. After the killing ended, he went to the White God Courtyard.
He rested well for a day in the peaceful White God Courtyard, temporarily escaping the slaughter.
But just one night’s rest couldn’t completely erase the side effects of the killing.
Until now, the last trace of killing intent flew out from the depths of his soul and was then taken away by the Domain Divine Stone.
The Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal absorbed Lin Moyu’s soul power and then returned the refined soul power.
With the combined effects of the Domain Divine Stone and the Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal, working from inside and outside, his state of mind and soul finally completely calmed down.
Antares sensed the change in Lin Moyu’s aura and woke up from his light sleep.
"Not bad, not bad, you calmed down so quickly."
"I wonder how your comprehension of the laws is going, let’s take a look."
Antares cautiously entered Lin Moyu’s soul world.
He saw Lin Moyu’s soul body sitting in the center of the soul world, like a deity. In the center of the multi-star spell systems of the bone and summoning types, where the laws were manifested, there were two avatars. These two avatars had split from the soul body, carrying Lin Moyu’s will.
They were observing the manifested laws, comprehending their mysteries.
"You brat, you’re actually multitasking, using the soul-splitting method to comprehend simultaneously."
Antares was both amused and exasperated, not knowing whether to praise Lin Moyu for his cleverness or scold him for his audacity. Others comprehended the laws with full concentration, but Lin Moyu was multitasking. This not only wouldn’t improve efficiency, but it might also decrease it, possibly resulting in no comprehension at all.
The soul world suddenly hummed softly and trembled slightly. Lin Moyu’s soul body opened its eyes and looked at Antares, "You’re awake?"
Antares grumbled, "Yes, you brat, how did you come up with the idea of using the soul-splitting method to multitask in comprehending the laws?"
Lin Moyu asked curiously, "Is it not allowed?"
Antares snorted, "It’s inefficient. It’s been a month, tell me if you’ve comprehended anything."
Lin Moyu shook his head, "I can’t put it into words."
Antares was slightly taken aback. Indeed, the comprehension of laws cannot be expressed in words.
If it could be expressed in words and written down, future generations wouldn’t need to comprehend anything; they could just copy from their predecessors.
Comprehension of the laws is personal and cannot be conveyed to others.
Antares thought for a moment, "Have you gained anything?"
Lin Moyu pondered for a moment, "A bit, but not enough to use."
"Then tell me, how did you come up with the idea of multitasking?"
Lin Moyu explained, "At first, I didn’t multitask. I started by comprehending the summoning laws but gained nothing."
"Then I switched to the bone laws, but still gained nothing."
"No matter which I comprehended, I felt something was missing."
Antares was slightly taken aback, "Something missing?"
He recalled his own fruitless attempts to comprehend the Undying Law.
Thinking back now, there was indeed something missing.
Lin Moyu continued, "Moreover, the two types of laws, though seemingly similar, felt different to me."
"So I tried multitasking, comprehending both simultaneously, and it worked well."
Antares stared at the manifested laws in the multi-star spells, muttering, "Impossible, these two laws look identical."
In his perception, the two laws were indistinguishable, exactly the same.
From the beginning, Lin Moyu had named them the Undying Laws, meaning they belonged to the Undying World.
Lin Moyu said, "They look the same, but internally they are different."
"Both are Undying Laws. The bone-type Undying Law contains more death energy, with only a trace of vitality. The summoning-type Undying Law contains more vitality, with only a trace of death energy."
As he spoke, the soul body raised a finger and drew a diagram, a yin-yang symbol.
Antares said, "This is the yin-yang symbol, a pattern of your human race."
Lin Moyu said, "The Undying Laws give me this feeling, one death and one life representing yin and yang. Then life contains death, and death contains life, like the two dots in the yin-yang symbol."
"The two intertwine, yet are distinct, mutually dependent and indispensable, yet each independent."
The more Antares listened, the more astonished he became. He hadn’t expected the laws to be so mysterious.
"A single law with two completely different aspects, how peculiar."
"Let me try!"
As he spoke, Antares also multitasked, splitting his soul.
For him, splitting his soul was as easy as drinking water.
When he focused the will of his two soul splits on the two different manifested laws, he suddenly let out a strange cry.
The two laws simultaneously attacked Antares’ soul splits.
Antares’ soul splits were weak, just insignificant fragments, and were directly annihilated by the laws.
The annihilation of the soul splits was a minor issue for Antares, at most causing a slight pain, but what puzzled him was that the two laws attacked him simultaneously.
Unconvinced, he tried several more times.
He finally discovered that the laws had already been imprinted with Lin Moyu’s mark.
These two manifested laws had become Lin Moyu’s private property, untouchable by others.
"Imprinted so quickly?"
"Impossible, the brat hasn’t even mastered the laws yet."
He found it very strange. Various things beyond common sense frequently happened to Lin Moyu, and he couldn’t figure out why.
Lin Moyu asked, "Are you okay?"
Antares shook his big head, "I’m fine, I’m fine."
"Did you comprehend anything?" Lin Moyu asked.
Antares, being a proud dragon, couldn’t admit that he comprehended nothing and was even attacked. "These laws are useless to me, but they should be very useful to you. Keep comprehending, don’t give up."
"By the way, I should tell you, a few days ago, your human race organized a large army to attack the Dragon World."
"And this time, even the god-level powerhouses didn’t take action."
This was the effect Lin Moyu wanted, "Let them sharpen their blades well. The next battle will be the real tough one."
"Hopefully, this blade will become sharper, not break."
