Chapter 58: Devouring the Law!

 

Ye Tianming was naturally worried, as he hadn’t forgotten about the Milky Way incident.

He felt that Tower Ancestor was a very powerful tower, which was undeniable, but at the same time, he also felt that Tower Ancestor was often somewhat unreliable.

Without dwelling on this matter with Tower Ancestor, he headed to the sixth floor, because the sixth floor specialized in selling food.

The entire sixth floor sold food, with all kinds of cuisine available. It could be said that foods from various civilizations could all be found here.

Although cultivators could abstain from food, not all cultivators liked to do so. Most cultivators still enjoyed the pleasure that food brought.

Ye Tianming looked around and finally bought a roasted whole sheep as big as a cow, called: Big Cow Sheep.

This type of sheep was a crossbreed between sheep and cattle, thus its body was extremely huge.

When Ye Tianming learned this, he was also amazed. The vast world truly contained endless wonders.

Besides the roasted whole sheep, he also bought many other foods.

Arriving at Fu Cang’s room, he knocked on the door. Fu Cang opened it, and Ye Tianming handed her the storage ring, “Senior Sister, I bought a lot of food. Try them all and see which ones taste good, then tell me so I can buy them for you again next time.”

Fu Cang glanced at him, took the storage ring, and turned to walk into the room, but she didn’t close the door.

Just as Ye Tianming was about to close it for her, Fu Cang suddenly said: “Come in.”

Ye Tianming walked in, and Fu Cang took out the roasted whole sheep. She immediately picked it up and started gnawing on it.

Ye Tianming: “…….”

After gnawing for a while, Fu Cang suddenly looked up at Ye Tianming, “Want some?”

Ye Tianming hesitated.

Fu Cang’s delicate eyebrows furrowed as she stared intently at Ye Tianming, “If you want something, say it. Don’t be so timid.”

Ye Tianming said: “I’d like a leg of lamb.”

Fu Cang tore off a lamb leg and handed it to him. He took it and took a bite; the taste was indeed very good.

Fu Cang asked: “Do you have confidence in this debate competition?”

Ye Tianming replied: “I’ll do my best.”

Fu Cang didn’t speak further and continued gnawing on the sheep.

Ye Tianming watched in shock, as he discovered that this Senior Sister even gnawed on the bones.

Outrageous.

This Senior Sister was too fierce.

Soon, the entire sheep was eaten clean by Fu Cang. After finishing, she looked at Ye Tianming without speaking.

Ye Tianming asked, “Senior Sister, is there something you need me to do?”

Fu Cang took out a scroll and handed it to him. Ye Tianming took it, curious, “What’s this?”

Fu Cang remained silent.

Ye Tianming opened the scroll and began reading. After a moment, he looked up at Fu Cang, shocked: “Senior Sister, this……”

Fu Cang looked at him, “Do you think it’s possible?”

Ye Tianming fell silent, his heart filled with shock.

The scroll still contained his cultivation technique, but Fu Cang had made some modifications. The direction of these changes was to devour ‘Law’!

In the Guanxuan Universe, it would naturally be the Guanxuan Divine Law!

This devouring of law… this was no different from rebellion. Because the Guanxuan Universe was established on law, and various laws permeated throughout the entire Guanxuan Universe. Devouring them would be equivalent to devouring the fortune of the Guanxuan Universe. This Senior Sister…

Ye Tianming looked at Fu Cang, who stared back at him without speaking.

Ye Tianming thought for a moment, then said: “I think it’s possible, but very dangerous.”

Fu Cang remained silent.

Ye Tianming asked: “What do you want me to do?”

Fu Cang said: “Help me improve some of the details.”

As she spoke, she took out a storage ring and handed it to Ye Tianming, “Payment.”

Ye Tianming shook his head, “I don’t want money.”

Fu Cang’s delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Ye Tianming said: “Senior Sister, let’s study together, alright?”

Fu Cang looked at him for a moment, then said: “Alright.”

Ye Tianming suddenly exclaimed excitedly: “Senior Sister, how did you think of this? You’re truly a genius, you’re amazing, I admire you so much.”

Fu Cang: “…….”

Ye Tianming looked at the scroll excitedly, “I never even thought of this point. Since we can devour all energy, why can’t we devour law? Senior Sister… you’re truly amazing, you’re the smartest person I’ve ever met, worthy of being my Senior Sister.”

Fu Cang: “……”

Ye Tianming wasn’t deliberately flattering her; every word came from his heart. He had never thought that his “Tianming Decision” could also devour law. In the Guanxuan Universe, the Guanxuan Divine Law was omnipresent. More importantly, if it could devour law, could it also devour the Dao?

In other words, his cultivation technique would no longer be limited to devouring ordinary energy; it could devour more advanced existences.

Whether tangible or intangible, as long as he wanted, he could devour it all.

Of course, he couldn’t achieve this now, but he realized that his cultivation technique had no upper limit, and his future held infinite possibilities.

At this moment, Ye Tianming suddenly said: “Senior Sister, I’ll take you to a place.”

With that, he brought Fu Cang to the Transcendent Sacred Hall.

After Fu Cang entered, she glanced at the scrolls around her, her eyes showing no ripples of emotion.

Ye Tianming said: “Senior Sister, let’s cultivate here.”

He actually wanted to visit the cultivation sanctuary of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, but he had no money, so he could only come to the Transcendent Sacred Hall.

In the time that followed, Ye Tianming and Fu Cang began to research the cultivation technique. Fu Cang had proposed the concept of devouring law, but she hadn’t figured out a feasible method, because Ye Tianming’s current technique couldn’t yet devour law, meaning it still needed improvement.

Ye Tianming paced in the hall, frowning in deep thought.

How to improve it?

This was the question he was pondering.

Fu Cang watched him without speaking. Towards this convenient junior brother, her heart no longer felt the resistance it once did.

Just then, Ye Tianming suddenly stopped in his tracks. He looked at Fu Cang, “Senior Sister, I know where our problem lies. To devour the Guanxuan Divine Law, we must understand what the Guanxuan Divine Law actually is.”

Fu Cang said: “Speak.”

Ye Tianming said: “The current Guanxuan Divine Law is the world’s premier law. If we want to devour it, brute force is absolutely impossible, because we definitely can’t be stronger than the Guanxuan Sword Master. But……”

At this point, he suddenly became somewhat excited, “As far as I know, the Guanxuan Divine Law was formed by the fusion of Divine Law and Guanxuan Law. The two laws both complement and restrain each other. In other words, the Guanxuan Sword Master allows others to place constraints on his order and law. Therefore, if we want to devour the Guanxuan Divine Law, we must have our own brand-new ‘law,’ or rather, ideology. What my cultivation technique lacks is ideology……”

Fu Cang’s hands slowly clenched as she stared at Ye Tianming, “Continue……”

Ye Tianming didn’t speak but paced back and forth, his brows tightly knitted.

Fu Cang just stared at him, not disturbing him.

Ye Tianming suddenly stopped. He looked at Fu Cang, “Supervision.”

Fu Cang’s delicate eyebrows furrowed, “Supervision?”

Ye Tianming said seriously: “Yes, Senior Sister, our strength cannot possibly contend with the Guanxuan Sword Master. The Guanxuan Sword Master’s ideology is to let all beings live with dignity, to prevent countless lower-class people from losing hope in this world… We cannot possibly create an ideology that can rival the Guanxuan Sword Master’s in a short time, but we can supervise. The starting point of the Guanxuan Divine Law is for all living beings. Since it’s for all living beings, then all living beings have the right to supervise. If those who enforce the law are unjust, we can… not comply with the Guanxuan Divine Law.”

Fu Cang’s eyes narrowed.

Ye Tianming continued: “We cannot defeat the Guanxuan Sword Master now. Even if we have a new ideology, it absolutely cannot rival the Guanxuan Sword Master’s. So, our only viable path is to use the Guanxuan Sword Master’s ideology to defeat his ideology!”

Fu Cang looked at Ye Tianming, a trace of unusual light in her eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

Ye Tianming added: “The Guanxuan Sword Master’s law was created for all beings, but now, his followers enforce the law unjustly. Since they enforce it unjustly, why should we still obey? Of course……”

As he spoke, he took a deep breath, “There’s a major question here, which is, does the Guanxuan Sword Master allow us to disobey this law when faced with injustice? Does he allow us, the common people, to supervise his law? Does he allow us to place constraints on his law… If not, unless our strength surpasses his, we will never be able to devour his law… I’ll try now!”

With that, he sat cross-legged, his hands raised, about to activate his cultivation technique.

But at this moment, Fu Cang directly stopped him. She stared at him, “Very dangerous.”

Throughout history, although it was said that the people had the right to supervise the law, who didn’t know that was nonsense?

Ye Tianming said: “We have to try.”

With that, he directly activated his cultivation technique. Soon, the space in the hall suddenly began to ripple, like waves on water.

Fu Cang looked around, her expression vigilant.

Soon, she was shocked to discover that many golden threads, like lines, appeared around Ye Tianming, slowly flowing towards him.

Devouring law!

Fu Cang’s expression became excited. Had it succeeded?

Just then, Ye Tianming sensed something and abruptly opened his eyes, “Senior Sister, leave quickly.”

As he spoke, he sent Fu Cang out of the Transcendent Sacred Hall with a push. Just as Fu Cang was teleported out of the hall, she heard an ancient voice that seemed to come from the edge of the universe, “Who dares disturb the Guanxuan Divine Law!”

Immediately after, she saw the Transcendent Sacred Hall pierced by a beam of golden light. That beam of light fell straight towards Ye Tianming, intending to completely pulverize him into dust.
