139: Divine Body Transformed into Sword
The light shield formed by Cang Yuan completely disappeared.
He bestowed his last remaining strength entirely upon Meng Yun.
This was not some magical treasure that could enhance combat power, but rather the power of origin that helped Meng Yun comprehend the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
Starting from the Tribulation Transcendence realm, every powerful cultivator could comprehend at least one Law of Heaven and Earth from their long cultivation journey.
In other words, those who were unable to comprehend the power of the Laws could not even pass the heavenly tribulation to advance to the Tribulation Transcendence realm.
As an experienced powerhouse of the Grand Ascension stage, Cang Yuan had already endured countless vicissitudes and accumulated innumerable insights over ten thousand years.
He had mastered no less than seven Laws.
Including those Laws he vaguely understood or was in the process of comprehending, there were at least over a hundred!
And at this moment, Cang Yuan bestowed all his insights into the Laws upon Meng Yun.
Although it was a life-and-death crisis, and the time left for Meng Yun to comprehend was almost zero...
But, what if?
Among the Law insights bestowed by Cang Yuan, there were at least three Laws that could reverse the current situation.
However, it was a pity that each of these three was one of the most difficult Laws in the world. Even with Cang Yuan's immense power, he could not successfully comprehend them until his death.
Could Meng Yun, merely at the Transformation Spirit Peak and only twenty years old, comprehend them?
It was still that same question.
...What if?
Bai Linglong and Demon Emperor Liang were locked in fierce combat, their bodies having both entered the depths of the void, engaging in an unimaginably high-intensity battle.
Saint Wuji's white hair fluttered, and his white eyes had Meng Yun firmly locked.
With a thought, a lethal torrent of spiritual energy, simultaneously carrying the Laws of Heaven and Earth such as death, chaos, decay, and weakness, attacked Meng Yun.
No matter how heaven-defying Meng Yun's talent was, under such an assault, he would surely face certain death!
These were the Laws of Heaven and Earth!
Laws of Heaven and Earth that were completely unrelated to a cultivator's realm!
Before the Laws of Heaven and Earth, almost everyone was equal.
Without effective Laws to counteract them, even a Grand Ascension stage powerhouse might not last much longer than an ordinary person!
Meng Yun clearly had absolutely no chance of finding a way to counteract the Laws of Heaven and Earth in less than a kun second!
Die now!!!
...
The Law insights transformed into droplets, sprinkling into Meng Yun's mind.
Instantly, Meng Yun's mind was drawn into a world.
In this world, time and space were already chaotic; even if Meng Yun lingered here for ten thousand years, only a flick of a finger would pass in the outside world.
This was a kaleidoscope of colors.
There was no up or down, no east or west, and certainly no heaven or earth.
Every single trace and wisp flowing here was the purest and most refined true meaning of the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
"Is this... the Grand Elder's final gift?"
To be honest, Meng Yun had joined the sect for too short a time and did not know much about the Grand Elder.
He even knew less about him than he did about Ye Qing, Yan Weihuan, and others.
But no matter what, at the moment the sect fell, such an old man, who could have enjoyed his golden years, still stepped forward without hesitation.
He even sacrificed himself to become a Dao, burning his life to trap a powerful enemy.
Even at the last moment of his life, he still chose to bestow all his Law insights upon Meng Yun.
Just to grasp that last glimmer of hope.
Cang Yuan had dedicated his entire life to the Immortal Sect.
With profound respect for this elder, Meng Yun collected his thoughts and began to immerse himself in comprehending the myriad colors.
As he journeyed forward, Meng Yun's original yellow skin and black hair were unconsciously dyed, eroded, and even...
Assimilated by the various colors.
In this world, time and space had no end.
But Meng Yun's mind had its limits.
If, before his entire body was completely assimilated by the colors, he failed to grasp any flash of inspiration, failed to comprehend any Law of Heaven and Earth...
Then what awaited him was death and the end of the simulation.
Even if he successfully acquired a Law, if the Law was too weak, he would still be struck down by Saint Wuji's lightning upon exiting this world.
No matter how strong Bai Linglong was, she could not simultaneously face a Conferred Demon Emperor and a Saint Wuji who had absorbed his fellow disciples and whose strength was rapidly soaring!
"The pressure is immense."
Muttering to himself, Meng Yun advanced again, simultaneously grasping every fleeting flash of inspiration.
He did not know how much time had passed.
Perhaps a day, a month, a year, ten years.
At some point, these dazzling colors, in Meng Yun's eyes, were no longer just simple colors.
They represented various Laws of the world.
A wisp of gray brushed past Meng Yun's hand, completely staining his palm, and a sense of decay instantly spread from his hand.
The rising and setting of the sun, the ebb and flow of tides; this was the Law of Time's Cycle.
A wisp of black brushed past his ear, an inexplicable chill making his scalp tingle, and his ear turned completely black.
The flourishing and wilting of plants, the birth of all things from a whale fall; this was the Law of Life and Death Cycle.
"No..."
"None of these will do..."
Whether it was the power of time or the power of death, these were Laws that Grand Ascension stage powerhouses eagerly sought to master.
Even if Meng Yun were fortunate enough to master them, he would be completely unable to contend with Saint Wuji using them.
Only those Laws that could break through ten clever tricks with a single force could turn decay into wonder, and impossibility into victory!
Did such a Law truly... exist?
Time flowed on again.
Meng Yun's body, limbs, and hair became colorful.
Except for his pair of pitch-black eyes, which grew increasingly bright and profound, his entire being had been completely assimilated by the Laws.
Presumably, it wouldn't be long before he would completely perish in this wondrous world.
Unless—
Buzz~~
An inexplicable fluctuation entered the depths of Meng Yun's mind.
Buzz~~
Once this fluctuation appeared, it was unwilling to leave.
It seemed...
It had been here, waiting for Meng Yun for a long time.
"This is...?"
Following this fluctuation in his heart, Meng Yun stepped forward, changing direction, and in a certain direction, the intensity of the fluctuation finally continuously strengthened.
Come.
Come quickly.
Come into my bowl...
This Law, though only emitting a simple hum, Meng Yun clearly heard the excitement and anticipation contained within its hum.
It was as if this Law was tailor-made for him.
Thus, after an unknown amount of time, Meng Yun arrived before it.
This was a wisp of lightless, colorless, transparent Law.
If it hadn't continuously hummed at Meng Yun, Meng Yun would never have discovered it from beginning to end.
He reached out.
The invisible Law floated lightly, automatically rushing towards Meng Yun's palm.
With joy and delight.
As if it had been waiting here just for this moment of encounter.
Meng Yun clenched his hand, and this Law of Heaven and Earth was held in his palm.
He understood its joy, and he understood its meaning.
Sharpness.
The sharpness of a Law that was invincible and could cut through everything.
"Sharpness, huh...?"
"It's a pleasure to meet you."
The colorful splendor around him instantly turned into dust filling the sky.
Meng Yun stepped out from the colorful dust, still with yellow skin and black hair.
"Yun is here to express his gratitude to the Grand Elder for his gift."
In the vast space, Meng Yun solemnly bowed towards the void, showing the highest respect to Cang Yuan, who had dedicated everything to the Immortal Sect.
When he rose again, his true body had disappeared from this world.
In the ruins of the Immortal Sect, Meng Yun opened his eyes.
Saint Wuji's Law power was still surging forward with lightning speed.
Meng Yun's gaze was steady, and he gently placed his hand on his chest.
Then he grasped a certain invisible fluctuation.
And pulled hard.
A sword of Law emerged from his heart, piercing through his body.
